If that would be a vulnerability under my proposed scheme, it would already be a vulnerability now. But as it is, it’s already blocked by law surrounding copyright of compilations. Indeed, my scheme in my preferred form takes matters further so that if they tried to do what you suggest they’d be risking getting everything in the “single multipart work” declared public domain as soon as someone complains that some of those substantial “parts” were published long ago.
At the time of the action few instances had been identified in European countries where, due to the current Covid travel policies, they were safely isolated and unlikely to make onward travel. The new variant was however highly prevalent in the red listed countries.

This has been the same practice used all along. The action is always commensurate with the number of cases. Countries don't red list other countries based on speculation while awaiting further information (if the Netherlands has 5 cases maybe it has a million?). In my humble opinion I personally feel it would be a good idea if they did, the information isn't always fast enough - however, that would no doubt create more cries of prejudice.

The fact is, in terms of the action taken, nothing novel really happened here. Therefore, I don't see how it can be deemed punitive or prejudiced.
We have already seen a successful EEE scenario executed by Google when it comes to open IM networks, so - it does matter; and no, thanks.
I've been part of the space since years, and regarding the anonymity argument, I've never heard that anonymity protects against crypto-thieves. May be true though.

But, I think generally it's wrong too. Neither does it mean that when you're a prolific dev, you're crypto rich. Or that you have to display your richness to everyone.

The main reason I think people have opted to be anonymous is to avoid regulation.

Judging by OP, I’d say I have a pretty good handle on ‘deep rest’. I think it’s more because I’m quite deliberate than because I planned it this way, but it functions well as rest. I have almost total separation of work and personal life.

Be purposeful with sleep. Work out how many hours you need, have a schedule, stick to it. I do 2200-0600, if I’m out late I still get up at 0600, a few ‘short’ nights a week won’t ruin my energy. Also, if I’m stuck at home, nothing interesting happens after 10pm. Distractions like my phone are kept in another room.

Push mindless binging out for more intensive activities. As OP says, rest does not have to be relaxed. It doesn’t have to be solitary, although it can be. The things I do (and what they bring me) are: board gaming (social), tennis (social, competition, exercise), running (solitary, calming, exercise), woodworking (solitary, satisfaction), Age of Empires II (competition), and piano (solitary, creative). It seems a lot when I write it down, but I still have a fair amount of downtime.
That seems a rather unnecessarily aggressive response
Here in Berlin for example, in the first week of september my 85 year old grandparents received a booster shot invite letter from the Berlin senate. It said something like starting 20th september you can get the 3rd shot from any doctor or you can go without an appointment to a vaccination centre across the city.

what did they do? nothing because case numbers were low, I did push and push to finally get my grandpa to get is 3rd shot mid november while go to the doctor for something else... by coincident the rush to get the booster started 1 day after that.

I bet this happened a lot....
As far as I know just like for the 1st shot sverybody above 70 got that same letter. Meaning they had more than 2 months head start to get the boostershot.

So at least in Berlin I wont have sympathy anymore for taking away the shot from somebody else (got my appointment in january)
>But there is a scale. ...

Agreed. You're in luck here, as I've actually just rewatched the Fox clip of Grosskreutz's court appearance just before I saw this, and cross referenced it with the NYT visual investigation just to account for selective clipping.

In this case, I would argue that the scale is proportionate. As to why I believe so, lets go over what happened post Rosenbaum.

In the initial confrontation, Rittenhouse retreats, trips and falls to the ground. Huber hits Rittenhouse with a skateboard and gets shot in the chest. Grosskreutz then advances with his gun, then gets shot as well.

Why do I consider this proportionate? First: Rittenhouse made an attempt to retreat. Only after the first physical attack (skateboard) and an attempted disarming, did Rittenhouse fire. After which, as per Grosskreutz's own admission, Rittenhouse did not fire when he backed off with his arms raised. Only after he ~returned to a firing position~ lowered his firearm and advanced did Rittenhouse fire on him as well. As he was armed and advancing with a firearm, I'd consider that a proportional response.

>Out of interest, with regards to Huber and Grosskreutz, do you believe that they were also justified in trying to defend against what seemed at the time to be an active shooter?

Apologies, I'm not too sure of the context before that as I've only personally seen the bit where Rosenbaum was chasing Rittenhouse. However, if Huber and Grosskreutz did believe that they had an active shooter, they might ALSO be justified. Both sides here may have a sufficient justification in this case.

However, in my opinion, and this is contingent on the accuracy of the NYT's report and the above assumption of "active shooter", the only ones who weren't justified, and are thus the root cause, are Rosenbaum, who unilaterally attacked Rittenhouse, and whoever that idiot shooting a pistol into the sky while Rosenbaum was chasing Rittenhouse was.

There's of course more to this, but I'll leave it open for response.

Also, thanks for keeping it civil, it's much appreciated when discussing this sort of controversial topic.

Assuming you ever encounter the issue, sure. But this bug was only triggered by long keys, which are outside of the normal operating paradigms. So your Rust code calling into a C API would have had exactly the same security vulnerability as C++.

On the other hand, something like Java via JNI wouldn't, because it copies the data to a different address space as it goes through the language boundary. Horribly inefficient, but at least the C code only causes security issues in the C regions. By the time it gets back into Java it either crashes or it's safe again, no undefined behaviour leaks through the API boundary.
I love how he takes a huge, highly custom (custom widgets and things everywhere) and unoptimized Qt application (Telegram Desktop), that as of late has started shipping with a version of WebKit for some functionality related to payments, without mentioning it's unreasonably huge for a Qt application. Apps like qbittorrent are a third of its size, and this is not mentioning that platforms like linux have Qt installed as a system-wide library, making the whole size comparison moot. (you cannot install and use a system-wide version of electron for most electron apps).

He also fails to consider that there's bindings for all native platform UIs for a ton of languages. You could write gtk code in javascript or C# if you wanted, and this is especially relevant when mentioning WxWidgets. You don't have to write your business logic in C++ these days.

Interesting analysis on the current state of the art for FHE:

"Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) has long been considered as the holy grail of cryptography. The concept was imagined in the late seventies, but the first realization only came three decades later. Today, both the public and private sectors are embracing this new security paradigm and are actively working at making FHE more practical and easier to use."

It has a long history in anthropology. If you take a course in anthropology, especially if the focus of the course is on the so-called "primitive tribes" who were the focus of so much research in the early and mid 20th Century, then you realize "gift-giving" is, in this field, a bit of technical jargon, given a very specific meaning in this kind of research.

Last 3 paragraphs cover that specifically.
Generally this means that you should be writing all the important information about the program to disk so in the event of a crash, you can read it back and continue where you left off. Alternatively, your state could BE on disk (or whatever persistent store, like a DB) and your program should process it in atomic chunks with zero difference between a "from scratch" and "resumed" run.

I work on web scrapers at [day job] and can say the latter approach is far better, but the former is far more common. An implementation of the former could be as simple as "dump the current URL queue to a CSV file every minute".

As for doing this "properly" in a way that works at scale, my preferred way is with a producer-consumer pipeline and out-of-process shared queues in between each pair. So, for example, you have 4 queues: URL queue, verify queue, reponse queue, item queue and 5 stages: fetch (reading from URLQ and writing to verifyQ), response check (reading from verifyQ, writing good responses to reponseQ and bad response URLs back to fetchQ), parse (reading from responseQ and writing to itemQ) and publish (reading from itemQ and writing to database or whatever).

This is is be both horrendously overcomplicated and beautifully simple. I've implemented this both with straight up bash scripts and with dedicated queues and auto-scaling armies of docker containers.

> It getting good yields in the fabs for the e-ink films that's the problem

There is a decent market for rigid (heavy) 20-30" ~100 dpi panels as desktop monitors. Lowering the pixel density would certainly increase the yield, as would the rigid back. There is a high premium for light panels for e-readers and portables, but for use as a desktop monitor, we can deal with a lot more weight and, since we see them from further away, we can deal with lower densities.

From where I sit, it's hard to tell whether my laptop has a high-density screen or a more normal 1080 one.

I'd love to have one, but I wouldn't even consider it if it's twice as expensive as a 4K HDR 120Hz LCD monitor.
Back in the 90's Sweden was one of the world's centers of cracking and piracy. I don't remember who it was but it was someone well respected and he said (I'm paraphrasing) "Swedish hackers are amazingly talented why are they wasting their time cracking games and piracy?" It pissed off a ot of Swedish hackers. Think something similar could be said here.
It's so strange how that differs so much. I'm not as healthy as you and the vaccine didn't bother me at all. Ok the second time it felt a bit like I had bumped my arm a bit.

> Doesn't the US government get more tax revenue

As a frequently observed phenomenon, no.
The intellectual property and brand which generate revenue for ARM will be held in some other country, so profits can be directed there and no tax payable in the USA.
Apples CPU design is absolutely an APU, I advise knowing what the market actually looks like before constantly posting.
Would be interesting to see this in a (log scaled?) histogram. Probably a lot of things in the 1 metre order of magnitude.
On one hand, I agree that people are prone to magical reasoning. The invisible hand of the market would be one such quasi-religious belief. On the other hand, using 'woke' as a pejorative as the article does is troubling given that being woke is simply being aware of injustice and power imbalances. That's basically just understanding the world you live in - it's not a personal attack and if you think it is I suspect you need to think about why that may be.
Presumably the same way you would back up the assumption that it will work, preconceived notions on the effects of regulations in general?

What definition of "vaccine" are you using? From Wikipedia[0]:

Vaccines can be prophylactic (to prevent or ameliorate the effects of a future infection by a natural or "wild" pathogen), or therapeutic (to fight a disease that has already occurred, such as cancer). Some vaccines offer full sterilizing immunity, in which infection is prevented completely.

The key word up there is "ameliorate," which is exactly what the Covid vaccines available in United States promise to do.

But you have to seal the food tight in pressure containers and ensure there are no air bubbles. So it isn't so clear cut to me the energy saving is worth it.

Also the containers need to be eventually opened. Either this is extra step for processing, or, if that step is left to consumer, with all the complications of consumer friendly packaging requirements and recycling.
So the 32 bit code and the 64 bit code is equally inefficient in your opinion?

We had to have stricter rules from day one. Also make vaccination mandatory. Take the hard decisions in the start instead of let this thing dragging for years before you decide to take the political cost. I live in Europe and watching this thing unravel it has been one clusterfuck after another. Lockdowns which weren't actually lockdowns except for closed shops, mandatory masks without any supervision so it's all comes down to personal responsibility, summers where all rules were suspended so we can welcome tourists, and so on and so forth. I'm sick and tired of it all. We need politicians to act like adults.

CRT doesn't necessarily mean woke, it is just one expression. The important part of woke is self-proclaimed experts that allegedly know how to discriminate in the correct way and attest themselves to be able to correct bias. A self-image of being enlightened is the best description. Does fit almost everyone in their teens, but in academia you should have grown out of it.

It is no accident they have difficulties with liberties and freedoms, especially regarding free speech. Because in the end they don't believe in their own ideas.

Yeah, I don't understand how people say the heavy push towards Edge, crappy addons and pervasive analytics is some middle-manager that needs to increase their performance metrics, and not an executive order coming from the top. As if Nadella is the reason why Microsoft has been gaining mind-share and good will with developers, but Windows becoming more and more spyware has nothing to do with him at all.

It's all part of their internal strategy, and it's coming from Satya Nadella himself. If he doesn't know what's going on at his company, that's even more damning for him.
Thanks for listening! It's a hobby project that is slowly taking over a lot of my free time but I really enjoy it.
They have seen Google, Apple and other tech players get away with it for years with no repercussions and large number of users even defending their favourite overlords. Does "its their platform, they can do what they want on it" sound familiar?
This is the end result, the precedent has been set and we are all going to pay for it in the coming years.
A little slow? I was pretty amazed by how fast it is in that video. I haven't kept up with E-Ink technology, but I own an old Kindle and it takes it 0.5-1s to refresh, but that 13.3" display is keeping up with finger gestures when scrolling.

Yes it would suck for watching movies, but it seems to be really useful for anything involving text, e.g. i.e. a secondary monitor to read documentation on, or even program on. I suppose the lag in text input being updated might be more distracting than when using it purely for reading.

> This is more about the perils of React switching from component classes where lifecycle methods were explicit and obvious to the multipurpose leaky abstraction known as useEffect and the hooks API. To anyone that went through the class phase, this issue is probably obvious and well known.

I don't see how that follows, as someone who transitioned from class components to functional. A functional component is simply a function that runs top to bottom. I don't see any lifecycle issues in the example given.

Yes, if you run that top to bottom on the server and render the output to the client, it's going to return null, since there's no window object. It's obvious once you think of it as just a function, and not an OO abstraction. That they fixed it with a hook doesn't mean the only way to fix it is with a hook. It's just a misunderstanding about SSR on the author's part, I feel.

If anything, lifecycle is much more obvious now, given that you know that returning a function from `useEffect` will call it when the component unmounts, which admittedly isn't obvious without reading the docs.
Yes, and sometimes absolutely ridiculous amounts.
I can't wait until this reaches maturity to get a 11" or so sub-notebook which is quiet, low energy, with a good keyboard for reading and writing (text/code editing, emails, PDF reading of scientific papers).

Looked into this a couple of years ago and it was too early, now one could almost design & build that.
At this point I believe they are doing it just to show that they can get away with it.
