One thing that often gets ignored is the importance of getting new developers up to speed. You go to an existing C# ,node.js or Java app and its painful to twist your mind around the architecture. Ruby on Rails helps you with that. Oh db change well lets jump in to models. Oh the business logic change well jump into the controllers. Its easy to get up to speed when joining an existing project.

Personally, I just use the cheapie plan because between home and work, the vast majority of my data usage is covered by WiFi

Poor people don't always have in-home wifi. They can barely afford a phone, let alone a phone PLUS wired internet. And if they're work is physical, they probably don't have the luxury of using work wireless either.

And even at your lower $25/month plan, that's still 3-4 hours of work at minimum wage. For somebody who likely has trouble meeting basic needs like food and shelter. And heaven help them if they get sick.

> and you should feel ashamed for it

But why? Telling someone they should be "ashamed of [their] own lack of self-awareness" sounds like you don't know how to answer the question, so you just hurl insults instead.

History has shown over and over and over that relying on people to be benevolent when they have outsized power is foolish. That they almost never have this "shame" you think everyone should have. I find this to be far more foolish: consolidating power into someone's hands with the assumption that they will rely on shame or pride to guide them towards using the power for good. We should all acknowledge humans are tribalist and self-interested, and limit the amount of power they can have to exploit. The way I see it, if you give them the power and they "misuse" it, that's as much your fault as theirs.
There are plenty of ways and tools for the scammers to be tracked on a public blockchain. Tokens are not worth much until they are exchanged for fiat currency. The authorities do not want to chase after them, yet, but anyone engaging in such fraud is leaving plenty of evidence on public, cryptographically protected blockchains to provide evidence that's difficult to repudiate. Sooner of later those responsible will be brought to justice.

I am working with people in the banking industry to add a layer of protection without compromising core values of crypto (permissionless, trustless), but funnily enough they do not want to do anything against the regulators. Retail banks have become very cautious after 2008 and won't do anything unless they are told to do it by the regulators. And the regulators are a bit clueless, tbh.

Ouch... For those who think anime is a disease that is responsible for the low birthrate and Hikkikomori phenomenon, Dragon Maid represents a step change in the wrong direction.

There are many light critiques you can make of it such as the "conflict" being resolved in the last episode in a way that makes a "deus ex machina" seem like brilliant plotting, or that the female having a harem of other females is not a sign of female or gay liberation but rather an excuse to draw more images of girls.

The serious problem is that Dragon Maid engages in numerous forms of "coded" images that derive from "lolicon" (pedophilic) fan art. Until then none of these codes had appeared in a real anime that was on TV but Dragon Maid normalized them. The main theme revolves around a dragon who is "sexually attracted" (the dragon says that) to the main character (an adult) which is mirrored in a relationship between another dragon with a child-like appearance and an actual child which uses the same visual coding to communicate the feelings of the characters (and are also widespread in the fanart porn that gets distributed at that upside-down pyramid near Tokyo, often used to communicate that a character who is doing something that doesn't look very pleasant, fun, or consensual is really having a good time.)

The dark horse in this race will be climate changes. These predictions look natural, as extrapolation from the current situation with decreasing growth in population.

I hope we (the politicians) don't hold tight to a strict plan, because if and when climate changes start to have a big impact, millions of people might have to move to different countries. These two things combined, decreasing population and massive movements of people, are hard to predict and will require a new way of dealing with these issues.

It's her sanctimony that settles it. Claiming to be righteous in the face of Trump/Republicans' sins (and believe me, I have no special love for that).

Who do you think has more debt in absolute terms, the lower class or the upper class? Whose debt is primarily leveraged into income producing assets opposed to simply debt?

> But religion is a small factor in fertility today, Muttreja says. “Hindus in Uttar Pradesh, for example, have a much higher fertility than Muslims in Kerala. There is no Hindu fertility or Muslim fertility.”

This is really strange he could have compared fertility rate of Muslims vs Hindus in Utter Pradeep and the same in Kerala. Instead he compares Muslims in Kerala vs Hindus in Utter Pranesh. Kerala is the least poor and most educated state in India and Utter Pradesh is one among the poorest and least educated states.

Pretty much my first on-site service job: the company I was working for made motion-control systems for animation, controlled by a PDP-11. The customer was an animation studio, so dead in the water without the system working. Problem was it wasn't booting, so I had to go on site, open the side of the cabinet and reposition the goose-neck lamp used as the light source for the paper-tape reader. Problem solved, happy customer.

My best argument to this that I would gladly be proven wrong so I don’t look silly being wrong. Is there any example in the past ~7 years, even ~10 years of any major cultural user content sites that had precedence like Digg, losing influence the way Digg and other contemporaries did?

The only examples that I can think of is Tumblr.

If there’s so many examples before 10 years ago. And maybe 1 example in recent times. Your point can still stand. However it also doesn’t mean much when the resilience of web giants are totally different between the Digg Web time and after that

“What is the future owed?” is a complex issue. It’s an intergenerational compact, and the scope boundary is going to be fuzzy. I would argue future generations are owed robust human rights, a reasonably clean and non polluted environment, and the opportunity to live a purposeful life with dignity. Ensuring someone has a partner would fall out of scope.

I admit we’ve sort of painted ourselves into a corner and the deleveraging is going to be a bit wild over the next few decades.

One could, for example, create a smart contract that has protection mechanisms in place. At the end of the day, smart contracts are programmable, so you could code your own which has appeal mechanisms as consumers are used to. For example, one could create a highly insecure website for payments on the Internet. The problem is not the Internet, it is the insecure website.

Term limits shift power away from the representatives that the public has democratically chosen and instead empowers those bureaucrats who serve in government for 40 or 50 years. Please see:

https://www.amazon.com/Democracy-Realists-Elections-Responsi...

If you want democratically elected representatives to be able to gain power over the machinery of government, then you should advocate for longer terms, without limits. If every Senator was elected for 15 years, we would get better government.

Assuming the 3 year old already knew what a lion looks like, and point at 'things with stripes' and 'things without stripes'.

I think that a model that can already recognize separately lions and stripes should be able to tag a tiger's picture as a 'Lion with stripes', no?
Not exactly, or at least, not in the same way as Unchecked_Deallocation. There are no memory safety issues with Drop. There are a few times when you need to be a little careful so that you don't get bad behavior: recursive Drop can stack overflow (which is caught and aborts), Drop while Dropping aborts which may not be what you want, if you've written unsafe code, you need to be careful with Drop because what is valid and what isn't may be a bit more tricky since it's effectively a callback.

Heh, or get better wheels. I've got a dual suspension (160mm front and rear) and 2.6" tubeless tires. I love getting away from things, exploring areas that would take a few days hike but are a day trip on a bike. Far enough out that the "trails" I end up on are game trails instead of human made roads/trails. Sure it's slower than being on a road, but way more fun to explore. A fair bit of the planet is passable on decent mountain bike, don't think humans (or lack of) would make much difference.

In most mountain areas I'd rather be on a game trail, than a road.
Try transferring money to a legitimate business in another country (in the EU) that got blacklisted by the payment operators. Such as a regulated crypto exchange. They are regulated, you have money you paid tax on, but your bank decides whether or not you are allowed that payment and will not give you legal reasons for stopping/reverting payment. May even choose to close your account if you argue with them. With crypto, all you need is funds in your wallet and the recipient's address. Can you see the difference now?

“Endless number of tools that have many alternatives that do the same thing in a slightly different way”

I think that is a risk that almost invariably comes with being open and popular. I saw the same thing with C# vs Java. In Java, you don’t have a logging API, you have a meta-logging API into which you can plug multiple logging libraries. Similarly, there used to be (maybe still are) zillion of viable options for parsing XML, json, different build systems, etc.

That brings flexibility, but at the price of having to spend time picking the best tool and anxiety about the grass at the other side, maybe, being greener.

Often, eventually, the dust settles and a clear winner emerges, but that’s not a given, and doesn’t help you when you have to make choices before the dust has settled. I don’t follow JavaScript closely, but I think it definitely still is in the “before the dust has settled” phase.

This is a very good point about infosec that a lot of password manager users overlook. Me included.

In wayland you can pipe the password into wl-copy -o so it will only be pasted once then disappear.

In Xorg you'd need a callback after running pass that runs xclip -i /dev/null some time after the password is copied.

There is no good solution to this in Linux that does not involve discipline.
I d like to see a sociological analysis of this. It seems to me that the JavaScript fad (which is fading now) came from a generation of developers who have different priorities. While RoR came at a time when developers wanted to ship working websites fast, it seems javascript serves other priorities, like showing off your colorful code to investors or impressing your superiors in Megacorp Inc with your new 11 level abstraction that is perpetually compiling. In the end people always get what they incentivize
Getting to that scale on the side is a nice problem to have. Maybe it shouldn't be on the side anymore.
