Who is this path dangerous for? Society as a whole? Or the malicious who are attempting to take advantage of weaknesses in societal fabric or democracy? When certain systems fail, we require other systems to take up the slack. In this case, private industry is stepping in where government (in this case, the State of Texas) as horrifically failed. The legislation in question was specifically crafted to subvert US Supreme Court (Roe vs Wade) precedence.

> My point is this excessive moral arbitration that causes the exclusion of people and entities from society is a very dangerous path to head down. We should want individuals to make moral and political decisions and participate in the processes that allow for change and remediation. By having companies both large and small become the moral arbiters and forcibly excluding people from the participation in society will only ever end badly.

Some people and entities should be excluded due to incompatibility (broadly speaking, but would include human rights beliefs, harming others, etc). Their participation is not in good faith. They are not attempting to have a debate or a discussion, but are attempting to rule through tyranny. In this example, Texan conservatives are ramming through legislation to enforce their belief system on the women of Texas. They are simply running up against the consequences of such (distasteful, unethical) behavior, and as conservatives, you would think they're comfortable with the idea of personal responsibility and business freedom, and consequently are prepared to face the repercussions of their decisions.

You can have a conversation, a discussion, or a debate of ideas with a rational actor operating in good faith; you punch a bully in the face.

Brittleness is arbitrarily defined as the ration between tensile and compressive strength so GP has a point (high compressive strength usually indicates a more brittle material), but without knowing the tensile strength it remains to be seen if it is more brittle or less brittle than say diamond.
If they're a non-developer, the ability to clear all of the cookies (or data) for a given site should be adequate to cover their needs (and if they're a developer, obviously they'll just use Developer Tools > Application for individual cookie manipulation).

If a non-developer is in a situation where they need to delete a single cookie by name but deleting _all_ of that site's cookies would be ruinous for some reason, then something's horribly wrong.
Besides what other people said, mobile apps have unblockable ads. The app is better... for them.
Operating system security. The consensus seems to be that Users, Hackers, and Microsoft are responsible for the current crisis in "cyber security". Any mention of the need for a better underlying security model, such as capabilities, is dismissed as quickly as possible.

In the past, our hardware was too dumb, and we didn't have persistent networking, so we could get away with things that are obviously stupid in today's context.

No current OS can be made secure, and remain usable. It doesn't have to be this way. We can have safe and secure general purpose computing. If we don't push in that direction, the government is going to regulate things down to the bit level, and it still won't be safe.
As I mentioned the West already has existing vaccines and the worst stage is (I believe) ending. The new people will hear 'DNA' and instead of turning against vaccines, take the existing vaccines. Health authorities will be wary of mixing (so no use as boosters) and accusations of going too fast, will take their time with DNA vaccines.

There was an opening for new tech to win acceptance and mRNA won the race, I doubt there's room for DNA vaccines this time. Maybe if the tech could be used for some other disease.

People have been complaining about automation since there has been automation.

I’m not familiar with the US, but here in the UK we’ve had fairly low unemployment for a while, in particular long term unemployment was under 400k, most unemployed were between jobs. We also had a lot of unfilled positions. The skills gap was and still is a pressing problem.

Somebody will bring up strong AI. I’ve been hearing about that being imminent my entire life, no joke, and I’m 55 in a few weeks.
> Just wait for antivaxers to hear 'DNA' and go wild.

I'm no antivaxer. But given that there are alternatives like mRNA, where including RNA into human DNA is impossible due to missing reverse transcriptase mechanisms: Why should I take the risk of incorporating DNA into DNA, which is possible and frequently occurs with other viruses and gene therapies? Where are the arguments that at least hint at the safety of DNA vaccines, because I see none?

I tend to agree, in that physical separation or exile is ideal, but (a) they won't be "sobriety camps," considering we can't even keep drugs out of secure prison facilities; and (b) putting people in camps comes with a LOT of well-earned baggage. It would arguably cost us what little moral authority we have left.
I understand what R0 means perfectly well. Vaccination and other factors can reduce it from the 6-7 level to something a bit lower. But there is no plausible sum of factors that will bring it below 1 for an extended period any time soon. Most interventions are correlated, not independent, and so the sum is less than the parts.

Not trying to defend anyone here, but I wonder if there's a non-nefarious reason for this.

Specifically, there have been a lot of changes to cookies lately because malicious actors (malware/adware) figured out how to access the cookie store and infer/determine cookie information from other sites.

I suspect that maybe this cookie store is kept in a more secure part of the application and only the cookies relevant to the site you visit get pulled out of it. It may even be a risk to have the information for all domains even loaded into memory for the application.

With all that said, there should be some way to manage/introspect that cookie store from outside of the browser imho.
I agree that the current photo scanning system won't work for other types of files. Further, I don't think they really even need to scan text files except to see if it's actually a filetype that should be scanned. And they can already easily scan music and such, but have shown no interest in it from a legal standpoint. Video seems like a prime candidate for the next generation of this tech. And I very much think they will be able to do that before the decade is over.

This paper seems to be a step forward, in obtaining a very hard, truly amorphous material. Unfortunately, it is not likely that this will lead to mass-production any time soon, since the synthesis is achieved at 25 GPa, or in familiar terms, about 250,000 atmospheres:

I'm guessing that you missed my point. I was saying that the music industry has the right model that is mostly consumer friendly and beats piracy. I can pay Spotify or Apple a single reasonably priced subscription and have access to "all the things." Books, audiobooks, movies and TV are all a fricking mess (as you point out) and it is anti-consumer and promotes piracy.

I've run into that bug (I think) on lots of sites, including two of my credit card issuers. They set so many cookies, and new ones on every visit, with long expirations, until the cookie header is so large that either the browser or server is cutting it off and you can't pick up the cookies to log in any more. I go wipe out some cookies to fix that too.

This was my point with the submitted title. As written, it was a declaritive statement saying "are filmed". If it used the actual title of "how they are filmed", I would not have an issue.

If the images you are acquiring on a digital camera are to be used in a film project, then I'm okay with calling that "filming" as that's just the industry vernacular. Even the project itself being a film shot digitally is still a "film project". nuances, pet peeves, etc.

So what? Nobody is argue that computers don’t store data in files. Only that web pages are not files.

"Most" is doing a lot of heavy lifting. Is it "most" as in, most visited? Or most pages by volume?

It doesn’t matter. It’s true of both.

Package management is to me one of the biggest benefit of Linux. Whenever I have to deal with Windows/macOS machines I find myself in the middle ages having to install the software manually downloading it from the internet and having to keep it updated. Even now that Microsoft had finally integrated some sort of package management in Windows and a store, there are not even the Microsoft products such as Office or Visual Studio on it!

While on Linux I type in my terminal:

paru -S <software name>

and install it. If the software for some reason is not packaged (very rare, since with the AUR repositories of ArchLinux there is everything) it's trivial to make a package and publish it so other people that have to use the same software can install it.

On Windows each time I install the system from scratch I have to spend a day downloading and installing all the programs, on Linux I can install all the software that I need by simply launching a single one line command.

It's not explained, but I know exactly what he means. We mandate that development teams and integrated product teams have to use agile methods, but the procurement process itself is inherently not agile. Contracts come with fixed dollar amounts, milestone delivery dates, and requirements that need at least signoff from senior agency officials to change and possibly acts of Congress. Further, the way your "customer" is always an acquisition office rather than actual users of your system, developers can't receive, solicit, or respond to direct feedback from users, which is a pretty basic core tenet of agile development, without which it's hard to see how it can ever work.
It's laudable to keep old hardware in service, but there are a lot of serious security issues with such old versions of the browsers.

> My better nature thinks that...

I'm not sure what you mean by "better" or "nature". It sounds like you may have some form of structure in your thinking that clearly delineates "politics" from "business" and "morality". Can we explore that a little?

Do you consider it is the role of SCOTUS to be the moral arbiter of women's bodies?

If not, and SCOTUS has overreached, whose role is it to push back against SCOTUS' activism?

Nobody?

Everybody?

Somebody?

The answers to these questions are not mathematical, scientific, or technical. They are political.

If your "better nature" excludes companies from participating in the political process, how does it feel about companies donating to political parties e.g. to facilitate the building of oil pipelines across exempt areas of land, or to rezone land for mega warehouses, or to bust unions, or to facilitate casinos?

Apologies, you might need to do some digging and research on your own.

On Oct 2 @RandomShaper said "is_instance_valid() was made thread-safe, but it's still not something you can trust. An object allocated at the same address as a freed one will report a false positive. That's, of course, considering that what you want to check is that your variable is still pointing to the object you assigned, and not to just some object, which I think is the case.

I've been using an Oryx Pro (v5) for a few years. It's mostly fine.

My main disappointment is that it doesn't "just work" with the kernels shipped by Ubuntu. System76 provides their own kernel packages, but they sometimes cause weird conflicts with other low level packages, and it can't hold its charge when suspended. I haven't attempted to debug the issue because I usually stay plugged in when I'm working, but I suppose I ought to engage tech support. They have been helpful in the past.

At the end of the day, I'll probably still give them my first look if I'm shopping for another laptop.
