By better nature in this context is assuming this was done for content neutral reasons. I hope it is a non-politically motivated application of their terms of service. As in the site, due to its nature, is generating a traffic load that is beyond the capability that they wish to serve or as another poster had pointed out it could be they are collecting pii information in violation of terms of service. It is the idea that we should attempt to assume they are acting in a content neutral way rather than assuming they are attempting to police people's thoughts or speech. GoDaddy does have a suspect history of these things but at the end of the day I do not know because, rightly they would not comment on it except to their customer and I do not believe that the customer has released a press statement of what they were informed.

Your question about the supreme Court by its nature is invalid. Supreme Court interprets or applies the laws under the constitutional framework. It is the people or their elected representatives that establish the laws. The supreme Court does not become an arbiter of women's bodies ever. The people or by proxy the people's Representatives may do this by having passed laws and the supreme Court determines the constitutionality of those laws. Now if you were to say the Constitution could become the arbiter of women's bodies that is a possibility, as the amendment process would allow for this.

Supreme Court activism is another buzzword used by people of all kinds of political persuasions. It has become that anyone who disagrees with a supreme Court ruling simply calls them as Court activism. There are cases that I have disagreed with but I believe it is a lot of hyperbole to toss around a supreme court activism. If there is supreme Court activism the remedy is constitutional amendments.

I do not believe that companies as an entity should be politically active. This is one of those areas where the supreme Court disagrees and has granted companies as an entity to have the legal right of freedom of speech and participation in the political process effectively unrestricted. I do not know how they reached the conclusion that companies as an entity are granted personhood and therefore the enumerated rights granted to peoples but they did. It's quite evident when you follow the money in politics that laws that companies tend to support almost always pass regardless of the popular support of people. When there are laws that have massive popular support of the people but the companies do not support they rarely pass. This shows that there is not equal representation. A company does not have the representation power of an individual person it has the representation power of all of their employees and the monetary power that those employees generate but the company often does not follow the political ideals of their employees.
I wish IBM had a massively lower barrier to entry.

They have a lot of amazing products and tech, but the only way you can use it is to buy a license. When I want to make a simple application, I'm not going to even consider paying for unknown software. But if I can get a version that gives me very good insight into how it works, and a license that would allow me to use the product for a good amount before paying- I'd be much more inclined to adopt it.

POWER CPUs are great, but they're quite hard to get for a developer like myself. I'm sure you could make some cool software on POWER9 or one of these, but they're impossible to get your hands on to play around with.
This looks it could be a really good course. I have had success using DrRacket and teaching programming using images, animations and sounds. You can introduce difficult topics easily and this approach appeals to a certain type of student who has difficulty with a more "academic" approach.

I am going to keep my eye on this course and see what the outcomes are. One area of concern is the need for Apple hardware. DrRacket is nice in that it can run on a variety of devices, including older linux and Windows PCs that can be inexpensive.
The people who are subject to these retaliatory tactics don't care about whether you like anti-abortion groups or not. They to care that their info is collected by groups set put to harass them to the maximum.

You really don't get to talk about freedom while making sure this law is enabled. It is not freedom, it is frankly insane level of control and pitching of people to hunt others for money.

Slow clap. Well done.
From TFA:

> In India, for example, they use the lines between the segments of the fingers to count. This means each digit can represent four numbers and the whole hand can represent 20.

Which is false. This method is indeed "taught" (folk, not academia) in India (and Japan), but it's not the way a majority of natives will actually count in everyday situations.

There are indeed important cultural distinctions re:counting in areas (like tally marks), but articles like these which are plausible yet false (this isn't a shibboleth at all) muddy the waters.

A big checklist of planned changes can work fine for a small team with a single product. It breaks down when you have many teams working on a whole portfolio of products with interdependencies and external customer commitments. In that situation a tool like Jira or Rally is usually the least bad option (unless your organization is huge enough to justify building your own custom project management tool that precisely meets your needs).

good news for you is that linux is moving a bit more and more towards the portable application paradigm, with things like snap packages and AppImage. E.g. for texstudio I found that the version in my repos was outdated, so I just downloaded an AppImage file off their website and am using that now. Same for ultimaker cura. And you can use multiple versions in parallel.

I think French people would do 4 with just the pinkie down. At least this specific French person does :). In my case that means the ring finger is not perfectly up, but still enough that it's clear it's raised.
That case was based on previous law. Section 230 was written to supersede that.
Content Moderation Double-Bind Theory
This is a really really good article:

> “What is it about enterprise companies that make so many of them abandon native apps, when they could surely afford to develop one app for each platform?”

Another way to think about the article's thesis is that organizations never deal directly in simple "costs", like "Can I afford to spend X on Y?" They always evaluate in terms of opportunity cost, "Would I rather spend X on Y or Z?"

Once you frame it like that, you realize that the choice between native versus cross-platform is, as the author states, often a choice between fidelity and velocity. And in today's software environment where hardware and user needs change very quickly, velocity often wins.

I think you have misunderstood the system.

The second scan applies only for those images which are flagged as positive, which are then accessible by Apple.
This is applied to detect adversarial hashes. The rest of the images stays encrypted. So, indeed on-device scanning is the only way to enable at least partial E2EE with CSAM detection.

Yes, this was PR failure Apple. They rushed the announcement because of the leaks, and secondly they thought that people will understant the system when they did not. There is too much misundersting. That scanning for example is built-in so deep into the iCloud pipeline, that one does not simply change the policy for scanning the whole phone.
Maybe I am naive, but I do like to think that it is possible to be successful without someone else having to lose.
Diamonds are actually tricky, because their practical brittleness is mostly due to breaks in the lattice caused by impurities. The lines of weakness are defined as cleavage, and diamonds will typically cleave along those lines when the break.

So there's a bit of ambiguity between the actual brittleness of the pure carbon structure and the practical brittleness where breaks in that structure naturally exist.

I agree with your assessment that folks should stop bashing on you for your unpopular opinion.

I happen to disagree with that opinion. However, it makes no difference to me whether you run Linux or Windows (or CP/M, RSX-11 or AmigaOS for that matter) as your daily driver.

It's both rude and obnoxious to pound on you for your unpopular opinion, especially since that's based solely on your personal preferences and not objective facts.

As for the downvotes, they are just shorthand for "I disagree with you but don't feel like putting the time and effort into rebutting your argument."

And the obverse (WRT upvotes) is also the case.

tl;dr: I think you're wrong and disagree wholeheartedly. That said, I'm glad you chose to express yourself and hope you continue to do so in the future.

The article is written by a professor of biology, a scientist.

Per the article, a fungus can somehow remember where it previously found food. That degree of spatial awareness/memory is surprising.

Thus, in the way that biologists use the word "intelligence", fungi are intelligent. They'd be pretty dumb on any intelligence scale, but they have intelligence.

Yeah, hippies get a little too excited about the mind of the fungus or whatever when they hear the word "intelligence" applied to fungi. Who cares.
I used to work on a system with a heavy amount of UGC (gaming network)

And here we have it, a situation where the content a user generates on what's ostensibly "their machine" is being treated more and more, by companies and the state as being equivalent to "UGC", user generate content - stuff explicitly being shared. Obviously, the insidious thing is that no one will be able to create anything without even the creation process falling under someone's "terms of use".

If you believe there is no evidence of society conforming itself in drastic ways to attempt to control infection rates, we may be operating with different facts, but I unfortunately remain unaware of which facts yours are, and apparently you of mine.

Edit: It is my position that the actions of authorities should be aligned with the preferred outcomes of the governed, and any relevant information made transparently available to the governed to be fairly evaluated. My assumption is that in the case of Australia and others, a mandate to fight a virus has become an outsized metric in the role of governing and some other leading institutions, and other issues are not being addressed that should be.

Check out Cosmopolitan which vendors all its dependencies. https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan You can't use Node with it, yet, but you can use QuickJS if you `make o//third_party/quickjs/qjs.com` and `o/third_party/quickjs/qjs.com -m third_party/quickjs/repl.js`. Cosmopolitan goes so far with vendoring dependencies that it actually has its own C library implementation that prevents functions like socket(), connect(), and getaddrinfo() from talking to the Internet if the software is running under GNU Make. Since sometimes we've found when porting software it'll have unit tests that do sneak leaks to public servers. It goes without saying that in order to make it even possible to vendor all dependencies, down to the binary level, there's a very long list of topologically ordered things that need to happen before you can even talk to the Internet. https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan/blob/50937be7524197f23a... It's all cross platform and native at the same time for CLI/TUI. It'd surely make a more trustworthy tooling stack for a password manager than something like Electron since the temptation for people to incorporate things like FullStory into such GUIs is too great.

What's really funny is that the latest fad for those running microservices is to go to monorepos, to make sure that all their APIs are synchronized, which is effectively tightly-coupling them again.
>privacy is privacy

Are you asking Apple to come out and say that they are supporting privacy against state-level actors? After snowyD, why would anyone believe that anyway?

I'm not advocating against or for - I'm only wanting to add more clarity to the discussion because I think it is an important distinction that is often left out.
It's going to depend based on context. In this case, context was unclear and a misunderstanding ensued. I have nothing to back this up except experience, but I think the thumb up is less common is Europe than in the US.

In this specific case, I think the expected answer is to confirm the number by flashing the same sign. A nod would also work, but be potentially less clear/easier to be missed.

The ok gesture would likely have worked as well, since in France they start counting from the thumb. I don't think the fringe group association is well known in France.

Generate enough bad press for long enough works wonders for creating change.

The battle is not over though, as you say Apple might include the feature unchanged in a later release.

If they do, should come as no surprise that they will lose a lot of business.

The correct business decision will be to cancel the feature and double down on the privacy angle.

Damn, I always forget that drug testing is still a thing.

If you were under the impression that Amazon & other companies are actually screening for cannabis use, you should realize that in any legal state they basically did everything they could to make sure their employees would not test positive. It's extremely hard to find people that would work minimum wage and are completely weed/drug free - especially if you need young, physically fit workers. Having higher turnover because you have to fire people after a while because of a drug test just means you have less experienced drivers.

It's funny that, as the article points out, school bus driver jobs would outbid Amazon since that means that schools are having the same issue but really have no choice when it comes to drug testing and are generally more restrictive.
Way back when, we thought about this for Firebug. One thing that came out of it was browsers started adding the console object (also because devs forgot to remove the calls on it).

> The magical behaviour of `collect` when given a collection of results to produce a result

That functionality is incredibly useful though. I use it all the time.

But it's also really hard to discover. I've seen quite a few developers be both delighted and very surprised by the possibility.

I agree that an extension trait with a dedicated method (like `collect_result`) would probably be better, especially since rust-analyzer can now auto-import traits.
Yes and:

Emphatically agree with you.

Substance abuse contributes to homelessness AND homelessness contributes to substance abuse. It's a downward spiral.

For employees surveyed, flexible work hours and mental health support were more popular than even a four-day work week or unlimited PTO. The point then is lots of professionals like their actual work, they just don’t like the restrictions and environment. Give direction, let them do the work. Remove barriers.

PTO and a healthy work environment are both good.
Honestly, I don't see what anything you just said has anything to do with what I've been saying.

Snap and Flatpak are very much not portable (in the Portable Application sense). Snap relies on a repo and Flatpak heavily encourages one, although it does have a single-file bundle concept. Sadly both of them suffer from many of the other restrictions I mentioned.

Its less about any individual employee, and more about the general culture and nature of crime in the two areas. If I were a criminal in Texas, I would undoubtedly prefer crimes with less chance of confrontation.
