By environment I mean the location - shops, parks, houses, lakes, garbage dumps.

According to you, if you want to preserve the attractiveness of the location, you are an evil exploiter trying to extract value at the expense of the people.

From that I conclude that you don't care about preserving the value of the location, so you should have no issues with building a garbage dump next to the affordable housing unit. I said build the unit next to the dump, but if it feels better, you can do it the other way round. Build the affordable housing, then build the garbage dump next to it. After all, nobody is entitled to a nice environment to live in, and you wouldn't want to enrich the people living there.

And I am pretty sure the "promises" are not imagination. At the very least, it seems the residents have a say in what gets build, or they couldn't prevent the building of new houses. So "move there, and you'll have a say in the further development of the area" seems to be a promise.
IMO GitHub posting these is fine since they're headlined "Highlights from Git 2.3x", but the last discussion incorrectly just said "Git 2.33", which is likely where the confusion came from. Hopefully this post will keep the distinction front-and-center.
I eagerly await :)
The push API is supported by every major browser except Safari. Just because you find them annoying is no excuse for not supporting them.

If by chance Apple agrees with your stance, a Safari config that disables them is the proper solution, not dragging their feet.
...Okay, how would you suggest a better protocol avoid that problem? For voice/video calls, you need a fairly small buffer size so that latency isn’t distracting. But if you have a (say) 250ms buffer, and the wireless connection drops out for 500ms, then there’s no way to avoid losing some packets.

TCP’s reliability comes at the cost of increased, inconsistent, and unpredictable latency; which is fine for downloading a file, browsing the web, or streaming video with a 30-second buffer; but unacceptable for a real-time call.
Last I checked even server focused Linux distros ship with a firewall.

Bash? Fucking savages! Zsh or gtfo

Not everyone has time to memorize Linux From Scratch and git commit a CI/CD pipeline towards the perfect distro

> I can see where he's coming from. It's the typical reaction of a beginner programmer.

This seems like the typical response of someone who posts bait ready to flex their "advanced programmer" knowledge. There's really no need to call out people's level of experience, ever. Personally I'm past the point where I think I've learnt everything so I just ask questions when I don't know.
Yes? You also know that something as momentous as a constitutional amendment doesn't happen in a vacuum either, right? It still had the effect of nearly doubling the size of the workforce, and now ~50 years later we're now seeing what it means to have a dual-earner family income.

The middle class is rapidly shrinking and the dream of owning a house for many newlyweds is fast receding in the rear view mirror, but hey, equality! Right?

According to the latest jrebel report, about 70% of Java shops are still on Java 8 as of earlier this year. The changes with Java 9 certainly created plenty of work for me. Java's famous claim to backward compatibility mostly concerns the JVM itself. They have done a killer job there. But the virtual machine is not the same thing as the platform that rests atop it.

This is not by way of complaining about Java 9. The changes are good and needed to happen. And the reasons why most people are still on Java 8 are also legitimate. Everyone's handling the situation in a fairly mature way, from what I've seen. The level of histrionics about Python 3, though... I've got a lot less sympathy for that.
Not a pipe dream because it is futuristic, but because it is geopolitical.
Given how everybody has a different answer (use the Canadian/Spanish/Swiss keyboard, use the Compose key, go for Colemak/Dvorak...) that seems to overlook how, like it or not, the US Qwerty keyboard is the standard for programmers, I think you're on to something!

Good luck to you!

One question though: the French seem to enjoy using different standards, for some reason. Besides the keyboard, I've also noticed they have a lot of WIFI channel exclusions.

I'm not saying it's good or bad, but do you think this might impede the success of your project?
I call bullshit unless you are entry level. The average engineer at a big company with 5 years experience is probably making >$200k all in. I can easily find 2bd 2bath condos and townhomes in Seattle for ~$800k.
Interesting. Along the same lines I would imagine it was one of the easiest “currencies” to confirm the authenticity of... a quick lick and you’ll know whether or not you’re being ripped off with a counterfeit.

Common refrain from the fanboys: You’re enjoying the things you like wrong.

Don't these cameras require to be stabilized? You only have one column of pixels so you can not correctly align the columns through stitching (as in panorama mode on phones).

As impressive as the stabilization used is that these dromes manage to hover in roughy the same spot (instead of drifting everywhere), I do not believe it will be sufficient for a rotating line camera.
I love commuting in my car. It's one of the only times I'm guaranteed solitude, and an opportunity to listen to or think about whatever I want in an enclosed space without interruption or surveillance (older car).
There has to be a place to live on the other end. That place has to be affordable and safe. There have to have enough funds for the entire family to move. The funds have to last until all of the jobs that pay enough are secured (in our case 3-4).

The funds may also need to last long enough for the wage earners' business to be reestablished or can find an employer who's hiring portal doesn't auto-discard 20 year job gaps (that portal may not exist).

All this assumes earning family members don't have even the most minor of criminal records. It also assumes family members don't have zero credit (which bar most rentals and many employers) after years of frugal living to save up those funds. God help anyone with medical debt.

Just one of these factors can lead to family homelessness, in some city far away from their support systems.
Imagine how much less compute capacity we would need if Ruby and Python were as fast as .net core.

We're talking a lot about doing something for the environment, it could start with using "fast enough" languages.

Of course we need to find a compromise between performances and ease of use. So I wouldn't abandon .net core for Ruby or Python, but I would for something as performant (or better ofc) but friendlier to use.
people fail to recognize that people ate a lot less back in the days that salt was so precious. they also ate a lot more fat. eating less and having more protein and fat meant that they had less insulin in their blood and also more ketones in their blood. insulin tells your body to hold on to things including water and when you dont have a lot of insulin you lose more water and sodium with it. and ketones are a diuretic which promote the loss of water even more.

sodium replaces insulin because it also causes your body to hold on to water. so it was very important because you needed it to offset lower insulin and also because you were losing it much more. if you didnt have access to salt back then you would have become very ill.

a modern person who eats almost nothing but sugar in one form or another and in enormous quantities has so much insulin that they barely need any sodium unless they drink large amounts of water. we even tell people to have less sodium. but earlier people werent that way.
>I doubt many billionaires have income.

Realized capital gains, dividend income, income on rents. I'm not sure how the calculate disposable income. If I have 200M in stock that I could sell, is that considered disposable income? If I earn 2M in dividends that I reinvest, is that considered disposable?
I bought "Connectix's RAMdoubler" back in day and it worked for me. I was using a Mac PowerPC 6100 and trying to compile an "Apple Media Tool" project for an "Interactive CD_ROM" and it couldn't do it. I don't remember what I paid for it but it did work for that and saved my butt.

I don't recall hearing about "SoftRAM 95" not working at all though. That's just vicious.
What I find annoying, as a (partially) blind person, is when people say I'm inspirational because I'm good at something where my disability isn't even a factor. For example, one time I did karaoke at a bar where I had never been before, and while I was singing my first song, a guy was saying stuff like, "guy is blind, that's awesome... this guy is inspirational". (I know this because he posted a video on Facebook, which got back to me via a friend.) So, I'm inspiring because I'm blind because I can sing? How does that make sense? "Blind musician" is such a stereotype, I figured the reaction would be more like, "he's blind; of course he can sing."
Dropbox is the biggest user of Python that I know of, and they went as far as writing their own JIT compiler before giving up and switching to faster languages.
IBM Z series silicon (z architecture and it's predecessors s390,...) Is designed with multi tenancy in mind from the get go. Finding a way to escape virtualization let alone partitioning to access confidential competitor data was a no go.

And indeed to my understanding spectre, meltdown, rowhammer and similar attacks are not an issue there.

I wonder when more features from the mainframe cross pollinate Intel amd arm CPU architectures.
Current gang in Canberra/Washington would never do a joint infrastructure project with Beijing, so that Chile might as well go directly there.
> I feel with you. The last time I tried to use Windows Forms with .NET Core was underwhelming.

I recently opined about the UI story on HN[0] and was met with a lot of 'who cares?'

Which is really unfortunate, in the process of making .NET 'Webscale' we completely forgot about the desktop workflows that brought so many into the language in the first place.

> What some people don't realize how huge the .NET sector is (at least here in Europe).

Yeah, a lot of folks here have no idea. I've come to realize it over the years (interacting with a number of very talented European .NET devs, seeing the variety of tech from Europe/Russia) but a lot of American devs really seem to have their blinders on.

Odd to note, of all the non-Microsoft OSS libraries I knowingly pull into my app, not very many of them have a US origin or majority of contributions from the US. IDK how much of that is mindset vs contracts (i.e. difficulty perceived or real to get approval to work on or make an OSS project) but it's something I've noticed.

> And UI is not the only thing, which hinders us. WCF for example or windows only components (registry or auth-things) are hard to migrate and sometimes require a whole rewrite of some parts

The biggest problem though is that there are -footguns- in upgrading. For example, if your old Web calls were using HttpWebRequest or an abstraction over it (like RestSharp,) all of the old assumptions about it not caching like HttpClient go out the window.

IDK if you tried CoreWCF, but it's a thing. (I have never worked with WCF.) I know it's limited though. I'll admit that I understand why Microsoft made some of these decisions around killing off certain technologies. I -do- wish they would have handled the process better though.

I think one big problem overall though is the community has in many cases not really 'stepped in' to fill these gaps.

This is not to detract from the people that are -trying-. But projects like Avalonia have had a hard time building momentum.

Time Machine has been neglected for so long. The UI was never great for power users, but at least it worked. For a novice computer user it was a pretty good "set it and forget it" experience. In the last 3 years it has become so unreliable (every time it tries to backup it claims the backup is corrupted and needs to be re-created) that I've given up and switched to Carbon Copy Cloner.
Agreed, I should clarify that in my original comment.
Imagine a power generation company run by Joe Biden with his white House staff vs Elon Musk with his Tesla staff. Which stock would you buy? I bet the Biden company will go bankrupt in a few years let alone go public.

Lots of TV shows showing "experts" where they blind taste test them between expensive and cheap wine or expensive vs cheap chocolate and blind folded they can not tell the difference.

That is not to say there is no good vs bad wine/chocolate/name your food. But it has nothing to do with price.

A good starting point may be "Philosophy of Mind: Classical and Contemporary Readings", edited by David Chalmers. A second edition was recently published.

It contains papers by most important philosophers in the field of 'philosophy of mind'. The papers are surprisingly accessible, and require little to no prior knowledge.
Regulations must be altered to encourage building sufficient housing where it's wanted.

After the prerequisite step is taken, then the tax code should be changed to fix that rent seeking, in houses yes, but generally too. Seeking rent is not an overall economic good, but a wealth transfer mechanism from the poor to the rich.
Vanity Fair’s Profile of the Rock Is Just Fantastic
It's really neat that ssh keys can be used for signing commits, but I'm not a big fan of this.

When auditing a source repository you want to see how commits are signed over time. In other words you have a key X which is valid at time Y. As Y changes, key X will change as well. To audit a repo, you need to know the history of what key X was valid at time Y.

With GPG you can set up a hierarchy of commit signing keys which have defined lifetimes and are all subordinate to a master key which you do not use for signing (and hopefully keep somewhere secure). One irritant is that the major git-as-a-service products, i.e. github + gitlab, do not respect the use of GPG keys as something varying over time or subordinate to a master key. Instead they let you set a current active key and mark on their own if it was verified at the time. If you want to validate the repository's security yourself, you don't have the proper information to do so.

The use of ssh keys as signing keys furthers this incorrect usage of a single key as something that does not vary over time. You can use ssh certificates as a way to have a hierarchy, but that still doesn't acknowledge that there is historical data of note.

Now, a logical question is: If each git commit is the summation of everything before, why does historical data matter? Why can't I just trust the git{hub,lab} when it says it was "Verified" at the time? A few reasons:

- Github allows someone logged in to make edits via their web editor which they helpfully sign with a universal github key that is always verified. So if your AuthN is bad, that is a problem.

- You are trusting that your git-as-a-service provider will never have their repositories tampered with and your org will just download the newest version of the repo.

- It relies on git-as-a-service providers to track this.
If you aren't using a managed service provider you need to roll your own auditing tools.
My friend, if you have not heard of it already, I am proud to introduce you to the magic that is Observable: https://observablehq.com/collection/@observablehq/visualizat...

I'm a full stack web dev, not a data scientist, but Observable has dramatically changed my relationship to code. The last time I felt this excited by programming was about 20 years ago when I was in middle school and discovered Game Maker's scripting language...
Why India refuses to give up on coal
Each work of art is a multidimensional vector, you can objectively decide how long the vector is along its direction (how well executed it is), but you cannot objectively decide which direction is better.

People call "taste" the part that decides which directions you like.
You make it sound like everything has to be first party (i.e. a locked-in ecosystem).

I also don't agree that one is 'reaching' for anything, since as soon as you interact with the broader world of interconnected systems, most of the first-party Microsoft things just don't work. They are almost all designed for their own standards that are too different or have to be manipulated too much to be compatible with something else.

Some things don't even exist like a basic Redis client. At that point even a highly experienced Microsoft developer has no choice but to get that non-first-party library.

dotnet tries to do too much by itself and that makes it annoying to use unless you happen to be building what it wants you to build.
I'd love some data on what percentage of web-push notifications going out are to users who want them, versus to users who didn't realize browsers had added a feature to let websites shit up their desktop, and, like most folks, just click "allow" on everything that pops up on a site (as there's rarely any reason, for normal people, not to) and don't know why or how some site they visited once is sending them stuff.

My experience from my immediate friends and family support circle is "0%" and "100%", respectively, but I'd be open to data showing that the first number is slightly higher than 0%. The "UX" for this feature for normal users is, as far as I can tell, exactly like the bad old days when people'd accidentally install 3rd party "search bars", then not know how to get rid of them.

Historically, browsers have worked to keep web sites from doing things that affect the machine outside that site's browser pane, that normal users don't want or expect them to be able to do.
> And absolutely nothing else changed in the UK in the last 20 years that may affect this number?

Explain why this matters? The data demonstrates that you can increase parental leave while also reducing employment discrimination and improving conditions. That's the real world outcome.

> Logic would tell you the disincentive exists.

Surely logic would tell you to give more weight to real world outcomes than to imagined mental models about how others "should" behave?

I'd question why you think people should think that way in the first place.
It's really not bad:

If you're running a non-iTunes music app (including web pages, on newer versions of macOS), the play/pause button goes to whichever one last grabbed the audio. So if you start VLC (or whatever) first thing (or add it to the auto-start items), then the play/pause button will always go there.
Seems pretty clear that whoever was responsible for this specific cost/benefit calculation was wrong though?
If we condition on people taking the energy transition seriously the past might not be a good predictor of the future. But whether there will be a strong pull towards "optimality" might depend on what is the total cost of sub-optimal alternatives. I would think that a well distributed grid would also minimize (beside losses) also storage costs and would also have various other redundancy benefits...
Manufacturing supply chains in East Asia far outpace those in South America, and extending those across the south Pacific just to get access to cheap electricity does not seem economical.
