Well, GDPR superseded the cookie banner thing and the banners are now trying to gain dubious "consent" about being tracked in all kind of ways, since GDPR is trying to make PII into "radioactive waste" in a way - i.e. the plan is that the best way to avoid dealing with GDPR is to minimize contact (and thus gathering of) with PII.
Financially, cryptocurrency is pretty much exactly like having stock in a long bankrupt company.

You can trade it with other people, you can create contracts and derivatives involving it. What you can't do is ever get anything of value from holding the stock itself.

This is easy to value, but some people are uncomfortable with the answer. With so much hype and magical thinking, it feels like there most be something meaningful behind it. Repeat it enough and the dogma gradually becomes a truth you can build anything on top of.

And since the company is already bankrupt and all the assets are stripped, it is immune to news that will force the traders to reevaluate and dispel the illusion. The company can't go any more bankrupt, so the traders are looking around at each other and seeing everyone else continuing to trade thousands of dollars for shares of nothing, so they shrug and think "if someone paid a thousand dollars for this today, they will probably be willing to do so tomorrow as well".
`dotnet publish` performs an implicit `dotnet restore`. So, yes, you did.

If you don't want it to download anything then you use the `dotnet publish --no-restore` flag, which is used a lot in CI/CD pipelines. If you don't have the package dependencies cached it will then simply fail.
Based on the other comments in this comment thread I would say it's Amazon.

> the idea that different languages are dialects of Mandarin

I believe most Chinese do think Mandarin and Cantonese are parallel and won't consider Cantonese a dialect of Mandarin. It's better to put it this way: both Mandarin and Cantonese (and many others) are "dialects" of a fictional, idealized language "Chinese". Hence, "dialect" here might be an incorrect translation of "fangyan", which literally just means "regional language".
I don't see how this would work in practise. You could use module-alias[1] to actually switch to the backup copy during dev or a local build, but that will only work when the backup is on the same machine you're building on, and then everyone on the team will need to have the same backup (or use a network drive for it I guess). If you don't check in your backup then nothing will get through CI or make it to production. Why not just check in node_modules and let git handle the 'backup' process?

I second this. Further, the number of times I’ve tried to get into native development is about ten, and every time I’ve done it the APIs are completely different as the OSes have moved on to new ways of doing things. Meanwhile, the DOM APIs have been more or less the same since I learned them 15 years ago, with the oddball world-changing addition of querySelector or enhancements that people rarely use like Shadow DOM and filesystem API.

Agreed. Crypto is risky and volatile, and can go to zero and that makes it difficult for the average person to treat it as a savings vehicle. The distinction in predictability between the two system is kind of subtle:

In bitcoin, the internal system mechanics are highly predictable. But there's no external "Open Market Committee" (e.g FOMC) that will change the market price to hit the targets mandated by its stakeholders.

In dollars, the internal system is becoming more unpredictable, while there are numerous external systems (e.g. bailouts, QEx, etc) which are very predictable: they will act to make sure the economic tradeoffs shield the voters of the system from experiencing pain to the next election cycle.

Neither seems ideal in its present form.

The devil is in the details. As a random example, you might have a process where all the pre-WAF requests (or explicitly the requests blocked by WAF) get forwarded to a log analysis system that itself uses log4j and is vulnerable, allowing the attacker to gain RCE in your monitoring infrastructure.

Also, blocking any request containing "{" is tricky - like, that's so generic that it's time-consuming to verify that it won't break anything, and it's very likely that JSON is used somewhere in that application traffic, so you can't simply do that.

Not sure why you would think this. It's not even close to comparable.
It has always been this way on this platform. Also not helping is that the documentation is of, let us say, varying levels of quality. I don't build GUIs that often, but have build them in the past, and, honestly, I am not entirely sure what I would use if I were to build one....

This has been a problem in my suburban neighborhood the last couple of years. Each spring, there's a very sudden die-off among the local chipmunk population. I've found a couple of the bodies, showing classic signs of SGAR poisoning. Haven't particularly noticed an effect on the local raptor population, but I don't see all that many even in the best of times so it's hard to tell. One pet dog has died, another couple have become severely ill. The close timing and extent suggests that it's a careless pest-control contractor rather than dozens of homeowners acting independently, but no culprit has been identified yet.

These chemicals are supposed to be used for rats because many rats have developed resistance to other chemicals, but I very much doubt that rats are the problem around here. Never seen one, or signs of one. People are using these poisons to control mice, which most definitely are a problem, and it's literally overkill. Personally I burn through a handful of snap traps every year (PB and Nutella are my baits of choice). There are other effective techniques as well, several mentioned here. Like "last line of defense" antibiotics, SGARs should be a last resort for pests which can't be dealt with by other means.
This reminds me a lot of audiophile woo as well. It seems like this sort of grift could be applied to just about anything where the technology is indistinguishable from magic.

The difference is that you see it. As somebody that had rescued a mouse from a glue trap once, I find them nasty. Having a totally restrained animal dying from hunger in your kitchen over the course of hours and days while looking at you terrified is a really unpleasant experience.

You can kill it of course, and I'm not against killing an animal, but is a mess of glue and liquids and spring traps are more fair in that sense.

Look, I get it, this is Finance 101. But even as I was learning this 2 decades ago, it never sat well with me. This process of valuation of a company works well under “normal” conditions. But at the end of the day, the asset price is really valued based on the supply and demand from investors and literally can have nothing to do with the underlying asset. Under “abnormal conditions”, the asset price is not a tangible thing, it’s the reflection of the hopes and dreams of market participants. Just look at Tesla which is trading at many times multiple earnings. Or look what happened with Hertz after it went bankrupt a while back.

If we collectively all determined we wanted to buy stock in the worst, most bankrupt company in the world, we could still drive the price up to relatively astronomical prices.
Corporations can't compete with governments, especially large ones with sovereign currencies who can subsidize without bound.

If China is going to do this we either have to do the same or levy corresponding import duties on the product. If we do nothing at all we lose all our industries to China.

This is not a new thing. Nor is it a "more advanced".
In addition to the uses mentioned in the article, mouse jigglers have been used for years to circumvent software security measures such as forced time-outs.

About seven years ago, the IRS (U.S. tax agency) promoted "security summit" measures developed in cooperation with tax professional software vendors. One of the recommendations was to time out login sessions for tax preparation software after 30 minutes of inactivity on the computer. Some tax professionals, in complete disregard of their professional and ethical obligations to protect confidential taxpayer info, decided that mouse jigglers were the proper response to this.

The extradordinary negativity of this comment actually got to me, I wish I hadn't read that; it's really just a string of adjectives and name-calling that finished with "fucking annoys me".

Please reconsider sharing this type of thinking, it's too arrogant for anyone.
In both extremist sides there are people calling for violence. That way they disturb normal conversation. Even the Dutch NCTV, the government anti-terrorism organisation, labeled them as extremists, with the mention that they had not used violence up to now.

One of the proponents of Kick Out Zwarte Piet, Akwasi, called out on stage for kicking Zwarte Piet in the face. Many people who are part of the childrens party felt threathened. He was found guilty, but because he said "I was misunderstood" they let it go. This kind of aggressive extremist action actually is counter productive in the racism debate as it is completely unreasonable. It is very common to hear being said that the anti-racism card has been pushed too hard and the lobby is losing its support.

Personally I don't have any issue with changing the look of Zwarte Piet into roetveeg-Piet, which has mostly happened here. Just the conversation is highly aggressive. As an anecdote, when a colored person dresses as Zwarte Piet, he often gets called out for being racist :) All because it has never been a healthy discussion.

"And what's wrong with being extremely anti-racist [...] ?" What is wrong is that extremism can go too far :)
I'm a tennis player and would've preferred to play as a lefty because it gives you a few advantages over most other players (i.e. ball spins differently [can catch people off-guard], a lefty's cross-court forehand [stronger shot] can be easily placed against a righty's backhand [their weaker shot]).

However, there are a number of things that I take for granted because I'm a righty (scissors, camera shutter accessible to my right hand, ink not smudging, can openers, etc) and I think I would've been frustrated as a lefty.
What you're describing is more in spirit with the intent of a lockfile and worth exploring by package managers. But I do think a heuristic could be conceived for the lockfile-was-rebuilt situation: If a single top-level dependency declared with ^ or ~ was present in the lockfile when the existing resolution was still valid.

Ideally the onus is on the package manager to provide metadata in the lockfile for the strategies it took when generating.
To test it, I would copy all commands verbatim and play around with the running web application afterwards. Say to try Django or some other framework which I have not used before.

Even just reading it would give me an unambiguous insight into the concepts of the framework.

To "fork" it, I would copy all commands into a shellscript and then change something like "mysite" via search+replace. In vim it would be: :%s/mysite/yoursite/gc to change all occurances of "mysite" to "yoursite" and be shown each replacement before it takes place.

I made no comment regarding how an employee should be treated. I spoke on how an employee should act. I made no comment implying that it's OK for employers to short their employees' wages.

I simply pointed out that lying for financial gain is theft. I agree that employees should be payed for work outside of normal hours, such as e-mail, yet that does not change my stated position at all. I understand that "Wage theft is one of the most prevalent forms of theft", yet you seem to not understand that theft can go both ways.
I got a bit carried away there. My point is that some percentage of people’s valuation of crypto, and similarly, Tesla, and some other green tech plays, is based on the assumption that the entire global economy will transition to their way of doing things. Most crypto enthusiasts hope for (or at least would welcome) the death of the fiat system. Tesla’s valuation eclipsing 10 other carmakers (or whatever it is) basically says “I assume Tesla will be making ~half of all cars globally in the near future”. Alt meat is similar - all of these valuations are based on an assumption of market penetration (and cost reduction!) that would require a massive realignment of supporting infrastructure.
So what's your evidence here besides some hazy gesturing at "kings, queens and nobles"?

Because when you look at actual history, you see long-running mutual relationships. E.g. the English Commons system: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_land

Or you could look at the Mexican ejido system: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ejido

Which descends from the Aztec capulli system: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calpulli

Historically, leadership was tightly bound to productive land, because that's what everybody needed to survive. Your "nobles" could in the long term only be as successful as the people they ruled over, and the feedback loops there weren't long ones. Were there sometimes bad nobles and bad kings? Sure. But overall, the badness was limited because harming the "infrastructure" of the day, land and people, was felt quickly by people higher up the hierarchy. Sustainability was a must.

That's distinct from modern capitalism in the age of industry and information technology, because the portability of wealth and the long feedback loops mean executives can get quite rich in unsustainable situations. The elevation of an IGMFY ideology to become the dominant view of the moneyed was only recently possible because for most of history one couldn't escape the consequences like people can now.

> I'm not sure why people are making it out as if this is some very complicated feature.

OP asked how.

The answer was, quote "If you want a single-file exe (as in completely statically compiled without self-extraction) that's a bit more advanced and requires a few properties in the csproj to configure how to handle native assemblies that expect to exist on disk. If you want it to have no runtime dependencies, add `--self-contained`"

Somehow creating an exe is "more advanced", and requires changing of unspecified parameters in the project file. wat.

You've the one making a positive claim. Let's see your evidence that this was the dominant mode of thought in all places and all times.
Looking at only the amounts of money will not capture the problem. You can fund retirements all you want, but you cannot spin up labor to change bed pans and catheters and build infrastructure.

Automation helps increase productivity per person and reduce the necessary working population to non working population ratio, but there is no natural law that automation can progress as quickly as it would need to in order to meet the expected quality of life in the face of declining proportions of working age populations.
> All I wanted to build was a native windows app.

You can't have it both ways. As you found out, building native apps is very complicated and slow. Young devs don't have the pain tolerance of old school devs which had no alternative but to suck it up, endure the pain and march on.

But today you have a choice - be immoral and productive with Electron, or moral, slow and out-of-the-comfort-zone with the native toolkit.

The answers to all of the problems you listed are in the Microsoft online docs, but it does requires hours of reading to learn how all the pieces fit together. Native app development in C++/C# is not like "build a to-do web app in 10 minutes". Which is why very few build native apps anymore, because devs want instant gratification and native development is anything but.
