> make you want to keep on eating

Junk food recipes are a/b tested and statistically evaluated just like in ad tech.
So add a couple of vendor repos and jump the versions queue like everyone else. I do this for all my main dependencies... postgres, ruby, etc
I think it’s rather Docker, Alpine, JDK 17 and jlink than waiting till 2023 :)
Same thing with swimming pools.
Because most of those skills are relatively easy to be picked up at any stage in life, whereas computer literacy - or even a new programming language - is quite hard to introduce into people after they are 30 or so.

Take this with a grain of salt, as it is based mostly on my own experiences, although I remember at least an essay from Paul Graham talking about how rare it is to have a programmer switch languages after some age.
People have the means to change their situation all the time and don't.

But a homeless person with $100 gets a room and dinner on a cold night.
No, but that doesn't mean they have to allow random research group to crawl their data.

Again a mistake happened in the past. FB learns to not trust random research group upfront.
How do we support you? Big emacs fan here.
> It would be interesting to see what a union could come up with as an industry standard contract concerning capital distribution/compensation.

I think you mean equity distribution.

EDIT, Had another thought after posting:

Historically, if you had a world changing idea, you had to work your way up the ladder at GE/Bell/HP to get the resources to implement it, and the company didn't grant any equity. Bell Labs employees had a ceremonial signing away of their IP for $1 during onboarding.
The idea that founders keep any equity is relatively new and if it's an indicator of a trend, it's likey that equity will be distributed more uniformly in future enterprises IMO.
What was the original method may I ask? Some… basic RGB mixing?
Even better idea, don't keep those logs in the first place. Tell LE you have nothing for them.
Don't attend LARP event if you don't want to encounter LARPers.
I agree with you about discoverability, but in practice I find that tasks aren't completely new every time, there usually are common principles. With usage, you kinda get to know what is and isn't possible, even if you don't recall the precise details of each and every command. So you can look them up, knowing more or less what you're looking for.

On Linux, `--help` usually... helps. Or there's the man. On Windows, the MS docs are usually usable to find things.

Of course, it may not work 100% of the time, but I find it's a question of philosophy. I'm not a Windows user, so I generally approach it with a mentality of "it would be nice to be able to do this, let me check real quick if there's a way". I usually manage to not have to click around for two hours when I have to do something repetitive.
Gee, that doesn't sound suspicious at all.
> There’s boatloads of knowledge around child development and how crucial it is to see facial expressions

Care to share some of this boatload of data for school-age (5+) kids?

> there is evidence that the disruption to normal life is dropping childrens’ IQs substantially.

This we can agree on. Your article specifically refers to the closing of schools (not masks). Closed schools and full PICUs are about as disruptive to a child’s daily life as you can get. This is already happening in Georgia and Texas and will only get worse if we don’t take evidence-based steps to control the spread of disease.
That's just it. The future is very likely most people using iPad-like devices. They will need some kind of keyboard, so I'm not sure it's going to be tablets mostly, but the software will resemble that of smartphones.

But no desktop operating systems are well suited to being used primarily by professionals, not even Linux. The desktop paradigm is fine, but it was designed with the idea of making computers more accessible, and it inhibits composing different pieces of software together, which is what a professional-first operating system should optimize for.

I'm not sure how viable a good professional OS is. It would arguably require graphical software vendors through the biggest design paradigm shift in their history, to serve a relatively small market. The transition to the desktop paradigm wasn't as demanding — you just switched from taking control of the graphics hardware and controlling the entire screen to doing basically the same thing, just with the OS as a proxy so that you're rendering to a smaller rectangle. Composable graphical interfaces means abandoning the idea of having complete control over your rectangles.
How old are you? No snark here, I am legitimately curious
>> Ultimately, the presence of toxic elements—whether racist, sexist, or just plain aggressively bullying—in a community of any real size is perhaps inevitable.

More to the point, the fact that basically every online community eventually develops these behaviours makes it look like everyone on the internet is an asshole.
That article does use purple text
I don't believe this is true, since both activate the immune system using the same mechanisms.

What studies do you have to show that natural immunity is inferior to vaccinated immunity?
That is wishful thinking. Do you think anyone at Google reads through all of the search queries? Or do you think the search terms for alternative app stores will start trending sufficiently to catch Google's attention?

Right, what he said.
+1 - subtly, if it's important someone will re-file or re-open it.
Hm. That doesn't look anything like the window I see when I type Win + . while connected to my Windows 10 PC at work. (All my own systems run Linux, so I can't test it locally.) That could be due to version differences, enterprise settings, or the fact that I'm accessing it remotely, but the UI I get behaves as a separate program, not an input method overlay, and only shows emoji.
I agree with your general point, but not as a response to the gp. If the president and congressmen who were in power and were then running for re-election have no responsibility for the unrest than what was the point of them being re-elected to stop it? Either they can do something about it and didn't, or they can't do anything about it but for some reason are campaigning as though they can.

Do you see how these are different? You're talking past the author.
Yes. There are many options outside of Facebook, but compromising your morals sticks with you.
Current stack for creating easy to use GraphQL APIs + Frontend Integration:

- Django 3 backed with a Postgres database (standard stuff) [0]

- Add Graphene to enable Relay [1]

- Setup a fresh TypeScript based NextJS project [2]

- Add graphql-code-generator with a few plugins, mainly the graphql-request one [3]

- THE MAGIC: Generate your sdk by pointing graphql-codegen at your Django GraphQL schema!

- Add react-query, use the newly generated graphql-request client [4]

From here you've enabled the best of frontend technologies (NextJS, react-query) with a fully typed SDK generated by your familiar Python/Django bindings.

You can then move forward to add GraphQL based WebSockets via django-channels [5] + django-channels-graphql-ws [6] that update your existing react-query caches. Combine this with background Celery workers that make push to django-channels via Redis and you've got a a UI that auto updates based on background tasks as well.

Makes sense. Only people with below-average intelligence would conceive a child during a pandemic. (just kidding)
I think I saw a command line tool that would show the documentation for all flags when you pressed tab... I don't remember it's name, though.
Best too drink water atleast 30 minutes before or after the meal because it dilutes the stomach digestive acids
I don’t see your point. I think people should learn those too if they want. And we do need people to learn them.

But nobody would suggest that someone that can only put together an IKEA nightstand is qualified for carpentry on the level of house building or fine cabinetry. Just because you can water a garden with a hose doesn’t qualify you to work on water mains.
I can offer a bit of insight on this, having seen a fair amount of training of a free different groups (helped run a heavily used MOUT town, basically a fake town where they could run around shooting without hurting anyone).

You'd actually be surprised about how good their accuracy is, and even more so their reaction time. Their weapons are almost always pointed in the right direction, and they just move faster than the normal Marines and Army infantry.

Their gear is better, but not all that much better than an average recon team. Their Intel is better, in that they are fully briefed on it, rather than the chopped down versions the regulars get.

The biggest difference is their training and lifestyle. They don't have to deal with the bullshit that regulars do, don't have to play stupid games. Their job is to be good at their job, so that is all they do. And because of all that training time, because they can focus without being pulled into a working party or parade duty.
The word “closed” doesn’t mean problem solved. It actually can legitimately mean the problem is ignored: we closed the case because nobody cared anymore.
The shortages came too quickly to claim it was just WFH unless people generally only buy enough to get by for a week at a time..

It seems obvious that many medical treatments/pre-treatments clearly lead to generally good outcomes (or are at least better than the untreated case) while many of them are still less effective or have more side effects than we would like.

We can say the same thing in many domains. Modern car safety has improved a lot and makes cars from a few decades ago look like deathtraps in comparison. But way too many people still die on roads so we're constantly trying to make improvements.
This. I make the same argument when the question is in regards to whether a large national economy can do well in a silo. It seems to me that the U.S. is large enough to provide all types of resources, were they developed.
You forgot Newton: applications are components written in a memory safe language all running in the same address space with full access to each others’ objects. The “imagine…” scenarios above are entirely doable (indeed, were done) in NewtonOS.
I want this, but not limited to only tablets.

I want to own a single "pocket computer" and that's it, no more syncing, just a single device. I can drop it into a dock on my desk, that breaks out the I/O into a 30" display, keyboard, trackpad, speakers, and it activates the Mac desktop environment.

Unplug from the dock, it pauses everything I'm doing on the desktop, and it goes back into my pocket and uses the touch screen.
There are crappy workarounds for many bugs. The cost is just moved from the mantainer to the user. After a while the bug becomes lore.
~15 years ago I randomly wandered into an antifa vs police standoff in Berlin, just as it was forming. Surreal experience. Everyone knew where they were supposed to be, except for me. It felt like they had done it so many times before.

I got out of there just in time. It's the only time I've seen large scale street violence. I don't think it belongs in a civilized society.
> But handset manufacturers were not experts in software platform development and didn’t have the skill set or interest in providing the increasing capabilities required to differentiate their software from that of their competitors.

This was my experience as a software dev starting out at trad. hardware companies in early 2000s. Software actually drove much of the potential upside, but traditional management was slow to realize this, having perhaps made their millions making hardware. They just didn’t get software, we’re fairly software illiterate. Software became an afterthought to a hardware centric dev process, but actually was what could make or break a product.

I'm definitely not jealous and I'm not even sure I'm envious but there's definitely an unhelpful comparison going on in my mind. I completely understand this from a rational standpoint - but trying to remind myself not to compare myself to others hasn't actually resulted in me comparing myself to others less. I need the thing that helps me go from "I understand this line of thinking leads to unhelpful feelings" to actually stopping the thinking. My mind goes there on its own...
I disagree.

If they are truly not the same, then let's make FB not liable for it.

For example, if there is data leak from this, the researchers should all go to jail and FB is not at fault.

I'm sure if German government is honest and truly want to do research, they should have no problem coming up with a law like this.

For now, there is no such protection. If the research group turns out to be bad, FB again will be fucked.
Huh? Just add the vendor repos to APT and install through them... no need for anything exotic
I'm kind of on the fence for these (in general, not specific to this ticket).

Assuming the STR is clear, is it the original reporter's responsibility, or the developer's, to confirm if a bug is fixed or not?
It’s not automatic, but the processing is guided by whatever processing scales (both in manufacturing and delivery of the “food”) and has been honed by a/b testing and statistically evaluated to be addictive.

Maintaining the complex structure of the unprocessed ingredients isn’t even on the radar.
There doesn't, and most of this doesn't actually affect the Perl community or development at large.

This.
I would imagine we will. Georgia started school already. They have high caseload, no mask mandates and unsurprisingly schools are closing due to outbreaks.
There are more and more networks that are native IPv6. And IPv4 connectivity is done with double NAT, NAT64, 464XLAT and other heroics.

The faster we can allow native IPv6 end-to-end, the faster we can get rid of the complex IPv4 compatibility technologies and simplify the entire internet. At some point, you may start to see networks with no v4 connectivity whatsoever (maybe they already exist, but I can't imagine them being useful), so this allows those users to reach github pages.

To directly answer your question, it's investment and maintenance in infrastructure, not for user features.

> when I see someone rant for 2 month wait period for a car I silently laugh.

Things improve, so people's expectations change. People from generations ago could "silently laugh" at someone complaining about a missed flight and a long layover when they had to travel by sea instead of air.
You're absolutely right. People do NOT want to hear it, but this is the reality in most cases.
Yes, but unfortunately, this "impotence option" means the relevant problems will get increasingly radicated.

Some of us are "on the run" in the hope for a better society like nomads looking for natural resources, while civilization was meant to be engineering a solution space in a collective plan, building, not staying someplace until it is spoilt.

It is a huge failure if the terms and conditions of the social contract have come to include «[practically] intractable problems».

> If they were sick of it, they wouldn’t lap it up

The evidence does not support that.

People will often ignore their own plights (from which they are tired and feel trapped or impotent) to engage in remote problems with a feeling of authority and power. Voting for a federal office is the ultimate diversion. Rather than argue and campaign for local changes where they understand exactly what impact they can make (or not make), they invest in a far away problem for which they feel like there is a different performance profile.

People are sick of some crisis mongering, they just like a change of pace.
This site has some child/teen sexual abuse statistics:

https://www.rainn.org/statistics/children-and-teens

It says: "In FY16 alone, Child Protective Services agencies substantiated, or found strong evidence to indicate that, 57,329 children were victims of sexual abuse.(1)"

It also says: "One in 9 girls and 1 in 53 boys under the age of 18 experience sexual abuse or assault at the hands of an adult.(3)"

Number of children in the US: around 75M: https://www.statista.com/statistics/457786/number-of-childre...

This site has statistics on child hunger:

https://www.childrensdefense.org/state-of-americas-children/...

It says: "In 2019, more than 1 in 7 children—10.7 million—were food insecure, meaning they lived in households where not everyone had enough to eat"

This last statistic about hunger actually makes sense: 1 in 7 is 10.7M if there are 75M total children.

The earlier statistic that 1 in 9 girls suffer sexual abuse and there were 57K total cases (boys & girls) in 2016, makes no sense. There are ~37M girls under 18 in the US. 1 in 9 would be ~4M cases of female child sexual abuse, not 57K total.

If the 57K total number is correct, then even assuming all victims were female, that would be 1 in 650, not 1 in 9.

No reasonable person condones child abuse of any kind. But exaggerating the magnitude of the problem and monitoring every person's phone on the planet are not IMO good ways of helping to solve the problem.
I remember an ad I once saw on TV about some snack, and the tagline was something like "you can't eat only one". I can't remember the product, though...

One example I have in mind about products being made like this is Nestlé's Extreme ice cream cones. They're fairly sugary throughout, but right at the end there's a small "chocolate bomb", super sweet, that just gives you that "I have to have another one" craving.
Wouldn’t it be the other way: Sapiens would be the semi-divine beings bringing civilisation to the local Denisovans?

It seems like a good idea. But carriers have no incentive to limit the data they collect.

I wonder what incentives to do so might look like?
I think another good example is psychopaths.

There are plenty floating around, but it's sort of the prime feature of their behavior - they really only care about themselves. So, why would they write a book to give society a glimpse?

Their motives simply don't align with that goal, because it's the literal definition of their behavior.
This is what the vast majority of news sites do.

Find a common article about a major news event, copy some of the text out and search it on Google, it'l more than likely lead you back to AP or sites that rewrite AP's content verbatim.
> calorie-dense foods have a tendency to incite overconsumption

Key quote that refutes GP's perspective.
Another paradigm not often discussed is to keep iPadOS and macOS distinct but offer macOS as an app (hardware virtualized vm) on iPadOS.

This is a similar transition to MS-DOS on Windows 95 (successful), Unix terminal on Mac OS X (successful) or Windows 8 desktop program in Windows 8 tablet Metro shell (unsuccessful).

Most people just need MacOSX for 10% of their computing needs — that 10% is unique for most people though — and an iPad Pro able to access macOS when needed would be enough for peace of mind.

On the flip side if Apple just added cellular and Apple Pencil support to the Mac (not even a touchscreen/pen supported screen; just Apple Pencil support for the trackpad) it would decimate sales of iPad Pro.
My company that I work at actually closes bug reports that has been in "pending customer feedback" for more than 6 months automatically. The customer is free to re-open the issue at a later date if it's still an issue.

I personally think that's fine. You'd have the time to verify and close every issue in a perfect world, but the world rarely is. Before that we had 100+ issues open with bugs we could not even reproduce that where open for years. It just becomes clutter at that point.
A rain drop forms in the sky and begins to fall. What path it takes, no one knows, but that it lands, we can surely assume.
It's not quite that simple. How much do they pay to the carriers to be the default search engine on their Android phones?

The risk remains that Apple creates its own search engine and cuts Google off from even being allowed to be the default, which was the risk that Google originally tried to fight with Android vs. Microsoft, but that hasn't materialized yet.
Strongly disagree. First of all, we're talking about miniscule (usually Kb or less) amounts of memory here. Secondly, I'm not talking about over-allocating so programs can run in perpetuity; rather, I'm talking about keeping some small ballast around so cleanup and reporting can happen right before my program crashes/halts (think: the kind of code you'd put in atexit hooks). That's a better experience for operators and product maintainers than "your app disappeared without a trace because the OOM killer came for it" or "your app disappeared without a trace because its ENOMEM behavior was abort()".

This is absolutely not why Java had/has a bad rap memory wise--that has more to do with a combination of code that allocates irresponsibly on the happy (not memory-error-anticipating) path, and the JVM's preference to preallocate as much as possible for every purpose, not just OOM handling.

> Just make use of proper libraries that will invalidate caches if needed

What if I've dumped every cache I can and I'm still getting allocation (or spawn, or whatever) errors because the system is out of memory? It's useful to have a contingency in place to turn out the lights room-by-room rather than cutting power to the whole building, as it were.

That's so last-cen, when stuff actually had to work.

Pixar's story approach is all "I am the chosen one". It's not about someone who worked to make it happen. This came from George Lucas, whose stories are all about "the chosen one". His success changed film storytelling. Too much. Before Lucas, there were more "clawed their way up from the bottom" stories.

I've seen "I am the chosen one" pitches. The CEO of Better Place (electric cars using battery swapping stations) comes to mind. He was a really good speaker, he was really good looking, he knew several national leaders, and his business plan was total bullshit. Better Place went bankrupt.
Not that I can see, but frankly if you’re not willing to use iCloud, give up on Apple devices because it’s what makes basically all the good stuff work. (This is not an invitation to get into yet another debate on recent events)
