I’ve seen some media in the last few years that definitely qualifies as LGBT propaganda and would therefore be banned under Russian (and other countries’) laws.

The most recent I can think of is that creepy Blues Clues episode… why do prepubescent children need to know about Pride and any sexuality at all?

The reasonable middle to me is to introduce LGBT issues in sex-ed when kids are going through puberty and treat it with decorum. You can punish homo/transphobia when it occurs, not try to program it out of literal toddlers with a creepy song about families marching.
The article is talking about integrating a payment gateway, so I don't think this specific risk is valid but the overall point is right - yes, there is a trade off between speed to market and how many workarounds will be required.

The truth is that sometimes speed to market is more important than quality, and visa-versa. Handling sensitive credit card data? Sure quality and security are important of course. Implementing a payment gateway to bootstrap a company where that is 1 of 100 tasks before go-live? Hack away and go as fast as possible, and worry about improving it later!
Or: Assuming a vacuum, solving the right problem is more important than solving it the right way.

But also, solving it the wrong way may create an opportunity to do better.
Good point - thanks. I'll tidy that up!

The inland regions also have an easy fix: uiterwaarden [1]. Basically, accept that the rivers will periodically overflow and designate an area immediately next to the river as a perennial wetland. In NL, they're usually combined with rewilding projects.

By allowing the river to overflow in certain areas, downstream cities along the river won't be faced with flash floods (just a prolonged period of higher-than-average water levels).

(edit: it seems "wet meadow" [2] is the closest English equivalent, although those seem of natural origin and not specifically intended as a flood-management device)

I'm going to agree this isn't over fitting. And it's dangerous to imply over fitting is ever a good thing.

If your objective function is to ID one type of Batman, you just have a very specific objective function which could also suffer from over fitting (i.e. it's unable to perform well against out of sample Batman of the same type).

The reason I push back is that many healthcare models are micromodels by your definition: they may only seek to perform well on images from one machine at a single provider location on a single outcome, but they also have over fitting issues from time to time since the training data isn't diverse enough for the hyper specific objective.

> And it is always pretended that the bad guys can only exist on the client side and not on the supervisor side.

This is very much the crux of it.

Back during the immediate post-9/11 era there was a huge push to restrict all kinds of civil liberties (and the birth of today's surveillance state) in the name of preventing the next terror attack, which could be "a mushroom cloud" in the words of George W. Bush.

There's a problem with this reasoning.

Osama bin Laden wasn't some random dude who got radicalized. He was a member of one of the wealthiest families in the world. He was born rich, grew up rich, attended Harvard, and had a family that rubbed shoulders with heads of state and were directly connected to the Saudi royal family.

Osama bin Laden was a member of what I've heard described as the "superclass," those who are beyond just being "merely rich" in that they possess not only vast wealth but internationally diversified wealth and powerful political connections.

He was of the social class that is behind the glass of a surveillance state, and if he wanted to avoid any possibility of surveillance himself he and other members of his class could easily afford expensive security consultants and specialized devices. They could also afford armies of attorneys to get them off any lists and out of any trouble.

If someone detonates an atomic bomb in Washington DC, it will not be some random middle class youth who got radicalized on a 'chan board or a Facebook group. It will not be some random protestor or dissident. It will be someone like Osama bin Laden. It will be someone with the money, expertise, connections, and background to find, recruit, and pay the personnel required to obtain or build a nuclear device. It will be someone with the connections to organize the logistics to smuggle it into the country and put it in position.

It will be a member of the global elite.

People with bin Laden's level of wealth and privilege are the dangerous ones. The lens of scrutiny should be aimed at them. One member of the middle class radicalized with toxic ideology might shoot up a school, but one elite radicalized with the same ideology could blow up a city or engineer a super-plague.
The most important thing for me is rapid development with no surprises and package churn, since I'm either trying to get an MVP out ASAP, or I'm trying to deliver under a deadline for a client.

Here's an example of a working app using my approach I described above: https://jsbin.com/putonutica/edit?js,output

The two functions, render and dispatch, are essentially the only code I share across the projects. That's the whole "framework". It's 19 lines of code. All it requires is a link to Preact, which is 14K. Oh, and I just keep everything in one big file. Simple, but I've built multiple complex single-page JS apps with this approach.

I'm sure someone will tell me I'm doing it all wrong, and I need to use Next.js with webpack, a giant stack of npm packages, code-splitting and bundling, and whatever craziness front-end developers are doing today.

" They will let you go the moment it is no longer profitable to keep you. "

First - you're mixing streams here.

This is just people trading services.

It's not 'amoral' of you to not keep the plumber on when he's done.

Second - companies actually do avoid layoffs. Most companies could layoff 10% right now and not skip a beat. Especially white collar. Google could dump 1/2 it's staff and be just fine.

Most companies have slack and generally avoid doing layoffs unless there's a special situation.

"the relationship between an employer and an employee is always transactional, and any feeling otherwise is an illusion."

Generally, this is the case, yes, why on earth would anyone think it's anything else?

Why on earth would a company employ people otherwise?

But again, once people are employed, they're not doing to drop them instantly.

It's all besides the point, in any case, one should be aspiring to 'Do A Good Job'.
Food wax? What is this, and what's it doing in chocolate?

Consider seeking out European chocolate. There's no provisiion in the regulations for "wax", and fat not from cocoa-butter is restricted to 5%. And if it uses any non-cocoa fat, that has to be stated on the label, thus: 'contains vegetable fats in addition to cocoa butter'.

The 5% allowance was introduced at the urging of the UK, in the face of opposition from countries like France, that don't allow non-cocoa fats at all. Brands like Cadbury (now US-owned) have long used non-cocoa fats (non-milk fats in milk chocolate), and risked being banned from calling the resulting product "chocolate".

It seems that importing Cadbury's chocolate from the UK to the US is a trademark infringement; the US (Hershey's) version of Cadbury's is lower quality. Lower than the UK product - and the UK product doesn't meet the highest EU standards.

I understand that many USAians actually prefer Hershey's to european-style chocolate; that's OK, I'm sure it's partly just what you're used to. But if you do buy imported european chocolate, the proportion of cocoa solids is at least 20%, and the proportion of non-cocoa fat is restricted to 5% - except in the case of milk chocolate, which can contain milk fat, in which case the product must be named "Family Milk Chocolate".

Perhaps one might call this tinkering with composition to save money "composition-flation"? No, I guess not, it doesn't exactly trip off the tongue.

Maybe you should read the news on the other side of the fence. In the UK, LGBT training is a compulsory class for children. Many Muslim families are pulling their children out of school because they're not being given the choice to withdraw their children from classes where opinions about sexuality are being presented as fact in contrary to the principles they want to raise their child with.

Obviously not a GUI, but WSL is pretty nice for this, even if you don't need it for anything else. You can run things like

wsl.exe -d Ubuntu -u root /some/linux/script

From powershell or the cmd.exe console. There's a bit of fiddling required to connect from windows to the WSL postgres instance, but once that's done, it's a nice setup.

Edit: You can also use WSL as a sort of "docker like" setup, using wsl --export / wsl --import to make WSL images with different versions of Postgres, start/stop them, etc. With a small distro like Alpine, it's relatively fast.

Others have mentioned microcontrollers and using shifts for efficiency, but also often because system services are often described and accessed by individual bits. So for instance (in C)

Why do you "hate media for research like this"? This is an opinion piece by

> Joan Smith is the author of Home Grown: How Domestic Violence Turns Men Into Terrorists and co-chair of the mayor of London’s Violence Against Women and Girls board

> This is filled with "As I expected, I found this".

A person who saw a correlation, was dismissed when sharing it with experts, and wrote a book to examine the data. It's kind of expected when they're literally writing a book to prove what they thought and saw.

> Is there any point in time that the religion angle came into picture. Can you demonstrate the same for non Muslim terrorist, because whoever comes to mind in this category lived separate life. Not saying all Muslim are abuser, but they certainly create stricter life for females.

There's a paragraph in the beginning that talks about the similarities between a far right terrorist and an Islamist one. Furthermore, there is this part:

> As I expected, the link is visible across ideologies, from Islamists and rightwing extremists to the fifth of the sample where no known ideology was identified. This confirms my theory that terrorism is at least as much about male violence as ideology, suggesting that angry young men are attracted to extremist ideas that appear to “justify” their grievances

So yes, the author did look at it with a religious and ideological nuances in mind.
Yeah, it was borrowed from Anglo-Norman.

Calling someone who abuses women to rule them by fear a "terrorist" doesn't sound like a stretch to me. In contrast, the media calling anyone attacking a cop or a military officer a "terrorist" sounds like way more of a stretch, and much closer to Nazi Germany's understanding of the word where anything the government (NOT the people) feared was labeled a terrorist.
There can always be leaks, anonymous sources that confirm something is still ongoing, despite what was publicly announced. Brand image is important.
Because as other mentioned before its just few lines of code away to allow scanning any pictures that are not synced to any cloud. This just puts foundation for cheap, automatic mass surveillance.

Imagine if you were hired to design mass surveillance system. What kind of technical problems you would have to face?:
1) Trillions of pictures of altogether huge MB of data would have to be send to your servers to analyze - this creates huge network badwidth
2) You would need huge computing power to analyze those
3) This would probably easy to be detected

Apple solution would allow:
1) plausible deniability - it 'was just a bug that scanned all pictures instead of those that supposed to be in icloud'
2) cheap - using user cpu/gpu and smaller user bandwidth just to send hashes
3) less suspicions than having completely unknown process/daemon in the background because rolled as part of 'protect the children' campain
4) rolled out to one of the most popular mobile phone in US that has locked bootloader and OS cannot be downgraded, etc.
Stuff like this is triggering my whataboutism alarm as not a day goes by without the self proclaimed leaders of the "free world" attacking certain governments on nothing but suspicion and "intelligence".

Before 2013, the more cynical ones among us were simply branded conspiracy nuts and crackpots.

I just realized, I never mentioned Bush, you did. See, I didn't even have to mention Bush, just his legacy, and you instantly knew what I was referencing.
Of course my point was over the top. It started with defending our directness, which I think is warranted. It's a feature, not a bug.

And then things got out of hand with national pride, highlighting the achievements, without any bad parts. I'm well aware of how one-dimensional it may come across. Because it it one dimensional.

In dutch tradition, you should destroy my claims. You partially did, although still far too carefully ;)

I compliment you on the deep insight into dutch business culture where trade triumphs engineering. Indeed, this is reflected into almost any business where the finance, purchase, and sales departments are enormous and basically considered the business.

Next, we may also have "hands". The people doing the actual work. Undervalued and underpaid, and easily replaced. It's definitely true that it's not an engineering culture in that sense.

Likewise, some pride is misplaced. If you look at a company like ASML, a high tech miracle, most of its engineers are Asian expats.

All true. Yet one thing persists in the culture: outcomes. Whatever it is that we build, or however we do it, there's very little tolerance for error. We don't accept half-assed products, we don't accept a lack of reliability. If errors occur, we don't let them linger.

I mention this in contrast to the many other nations I traveled to, many of which accepting things to barely function, not at all, or not reliably so. That's what I mean with "proper".
Yeah, if your vast wealth is making you miserable ... that's a real easy thing to fix.

The most useful application I see is moving toward building local first software[1].

And as for optimizations, my approach is surprisingly non systematic. I think about the program on the whole, and think through & investigate where all the time is being spent. There's usually ways to restructure things so the hottest code path runs faster. Sometimes that involves changing data structures or languages. Sometimes it just needs early returns for common cases, or inlining string libraries and things like that to avoid allocations.

Sometimes it helps to imagine yourself going through by hand the drudgery the computer is doing. If I was actually doing that boring work by hand, there's almost always ways I'd start taking short cuts. All thats left then is programming those shortcut into the computer.

People were slightly smaller in the '40s, but the main difference is that they had a lot less stuff. Compared to the purchasing power, furniture was more expensive and a vast majority of today's appliances did not exist at all.
