setState({...state, foo: "bar"})

The code you presented is wrong - it won't work the way you expect. Or worse, it might work the way you expect, by chance.

If you wish to use the previous state you must do it this way:

setState(prevState => ({...prevState, foo: "bar"}))

The University is not being defrauded, but the professor is still taking advantage of their position to make a personal profit.

Leaving aside the legal issues (I'm not a law expert, so I don't know if it is illegal), don't you think it is incredibly immoral for a professor to require a specific book for their class on the basis that the publisher is going to hand a check to the professor?
Ouch. I have a Librem 5 that I bought on pre-order, that lead time ended up being 4 years :-) I was okay with waiting. I never really paid much attention or tried to figure out what's going on with the company, but I do think they are doing important work and that they are worth supporting and have earned some understanding. However in my opinion, the new price is a bit too much. Though I do understand costs have gone up because of the pandemic, especially electronic components.

So if you have money burning a hole in your pocket and are okay with delayed-gratification, please join me in helping support the development of a Linux phone ecosystem.

Again, not finished with the book, but the central thesis of the book that large scaled human endeavors (and society as a whole following the agricultural revolution) does not require hierarchical organization. I do not believe I have made it to the meat of that thesis yet but, up to this point, I have not been convinced by his evidence that there were long-lasting, large-scale human organizations (think city scale and higher) that operated without some hierarchy.

That said, there are some things that stand out that I am spending a lot of time contemplating as a result of the book so far:

* I now agree with him that there were likely societies operating at a reasonable level of scale (larger than the Band/Tribe stereotype) that were significantly more egalitarian than current societies or any others in the Greco-Roman/Western civilization lineage.

* There was likely significantly more experimentation around social structures in early human history than I had thought of or imagined.

* There were societies which operated with different types of governance based on the time of year and activities associated with that time of year. This is interesting to me since I believe there is no "best" political system, but I had not considered how to take advantage of multiple types without trying to recombine them in some way. I particularly want to think about this more in the context of corporate organizations, since they already do this in some ways without being as explicit about it. For example, I have worked with an organization that operated like a collective of empowered product teams for large portions of the year but operated more like a standard hierarchy during annual planning season or when there was inter-organizational conflict. At the time I perceived it as a faux front for a top-down organization, but now I'm not sure that's fair.

* This one is probably more philosophically obvious, but, there is an opportunity for me, personally, to rethink the version of "freedom" I value. In doing so I think I will reconcile some conflicts I have between my social and economic views. The book didn't give me a new definition for freedom that I want to use, but it presented at least one alternative definition that I think is valid and interesting.
This has been my take as well.

Honestly, if you're keen to share something you shouldn't, it's pretty trivial to host it via https://rclone.org as an http server. The only person accessing it off of Google drive is the original owner and gdrive can't tell that it's being shared beyond that.

More context here, as I had to look it up and this one fits into the same pattern, but adds a layer of muddiness: https://variety.com/2021/digital/news/john-stossel-sues-face...

In Stossel's case, one of his video's is being very closely taken to their implications, and being marked accordingly as "misleading" and "missing context". In the case of the BMJ, the factcheck title is fully inaccurate and itself is misleading. The Stossel case highlights this nuance, but in the end appears to be a partisan test of the legal waters. Facebook itself has spoken on that one and has defended it.

Of note though is this passage:

> In a previous response posted by Climate Feedback to Stossel’s charges about the fact-check rating on the “Government Fueled Fires” video, the organization wrote, “Stossel complains that we should not have rated his post using a claim review of a quote that does not appear in his video. This is a misunderstanding of how fact-checking partners operate on Facebook. Given that many pieces of content posted on Facebook can separately make the same claim, it is not necessary to create a separate claim review article for each post we rate. It is, of course, necessary that the claim we reviewed is representative of the claim in each post we rate, which is true in this case.”

It seems like in an effort for efficiency, articles are grouped together. I wonder if some article citing BMJ made the inaccuracies, and then the source got grouped into the same article group. It seems like that is a corner that cannot be cut here. To the surprise of no one, fact checking is hard and trying to group things together will cause problems. It seems to me that the critics are right to point out that fact checking will simply not scale while maintaining accuracy.

Journalists dont exist to spread knowledge. They exist to spread ideologies.

I challenge you to find a point in human history where "journalists" weren't putting their fingers on the scale. Look at the journalistic antics of someone like Benjamin Franklin for instance.
It's a public health issue, not the British invading USA. There's zero need to introduce politics into a worldwide health disaster.

If you so love human rights and freedom, you could start by supporting real government overreach like abortion outlawing, inhuman treatment of immigrants, offshore prisons where human rights are ignored, gerrymandering to twist votes towards a single party, insider stock trading from senators, and a long etc.

I pushed a one-liner with no code review a few minutes ago.

Prior massive change of mine went through pre-merge CI tests just fine, but the post-merge build process blew up because a very large list of possible arches was missing aarch64. For various reasons the pre-merge CI tests (which take minutes) are necessarily more limited than the post-merge (which take hours).

A massive list of labels gets one more label so there's no style cleanup concerns, and our CI is already red so its not getting any redder.

The prior real PR was reviewed and everyone missed the label that wasn't there.

Turns out the fairly massive CI test that I wrote caught the bug that everyone's human eyeballs entirely failed to catch (and I doubt anyone who reviewed it actually went through the code in the CI test in the same level of detail that I went through in order to create it).

I started writing and never completed a dead simple ETL framework that left most of the work up to the programmer. It was basically just an http server that you could hit with cron jobs, a DAG data structure for mapping the process, and some annotations that you could use to specify that a node/program step was concurrency safe, blocking, etc. You’re entirely right that there’s way more to ETL than meets the eye, but this still makes me want to dig it back up.

No its not.

Traditional media creating so much buzz to slow down and make tesla look bad. I can see every bad news about tesla re-printed everywhere. 1 car got on fire boom... every car outlet re prints. BMW recalled 1M+ cars because of fire risk and some of them still catching on fire on the road while driving on a highway, no one even heard of it.

Regarding the article. Author probably never tried to drive FSD. If driver doesn't look on a road for few seconds few time it will ban you from this feature. They use camera, sensors of steering wheel etc...
It is very aggressively RESTRICTED , locked LEVEL 2 system. It's only available for few thousands of people. Regular autopliot works only on highways and very limited.

FSD name is clearly aspirational. Once they will have a confidence they will switch from level 2 to 3 etc.. By removing/easing restrictions. Only AFTER THAT it will become eligible to a different regulations.

The only debate here could be how aggressive you are about this level 2 restrictions while building LEVEL 5 system.

I am part of this Beta program. My personal feeling after using this system: you pay attention more compares to regular driving. It tuned this way it will rather do a false positive distraction decision.

And yeah, current version is so far away from LEVEL 4 or 5. And it's not usable for every day. The only use of it try, test, provide feedback, turn off , and use the car in a traditional way. There is 0 amount of people who is using this feature not for testings purposes.
Erm, no, it's not. "It" is about taking principled actions, regardless of the outcome. "Outcomes over principles" is one of the most destructive and evil ideologies known to man, and the source for all kinds of tyranny disguised under the banner of "We know what's best for you". Censorship, in the sense of suppressing one's opinions and freedom of expression, is morally wrong, full stop - and even if it weren't, it's not even effective in the case of Facebook, because censorship just feeds (crazy) conspiracy theories and breeds distrust.
There should be a discussion page, like on Wikipedia, for "fact checkers" to publicly interact with those who post "misleading information." It's highly upsetting that there was no process for this entity to challenge the ruling of the "fact checkers." Especially since it is an established medical journal.

Why can't we have open discussions about "the facts?" Are we living in a democratic country or an authoritarian country? For those that say "Facebook is a private company, it can do whatever it wants on its platform," I think it's important to distinguish between the legal right for a company to do something and the moral character of their actions. In other words, Facebook may well be within their rights to do what they are doing, but that doesn't mean it is moral. Given that we are a "democratic" country, our moral judgements should weigh heavily against these types of authoritarian actions, even if they are legal.
A lot of people still have trouble with the fact that successful popular protest movements are usually just part of the legitimating process for some political shift which has already occurred, and not a significant causal factor in that shift occurring.
Story time I suppose (from a former colleague).

Managers were looking at buying a monitoring tool for a dev team. Somehow dev lead was included in the meeting. Vendor comes in, does his pitch. Dev leads pulls the manager aside and tells him "we already have a monitoring tool installed called git".

Non-technical manager is intrigued so dev leads pulls out a GUI front-end for git and shows the commit history. "You can see who added what to the codebase and when"

"Neat. How much does it costs us?"

"Nothing. It comes with the tool! How much are they trying to charge us for this monitoring software?"

"They want to schedule a separate call for pricing..."

We all know git metrics are pointless, apparently management was satisfied to know that they were collecting metrics and could use them if they wanted to (and they never bothered with it).
No function keys is a huge deal breaker for me, I don't have any problem sticking to my advantage2.
It is fairly subtle and mostly an implementation detail. In Rust, the concept of "polling tasks" was very exposed before the async/await keywords were introduced, so the lingo kind of stuck. There is an argument that we should move away from that lingo now that it is mostly hidden as an implementation detail, but we haven't yet.
We could in theory get a lot of this benefit by supporting profile guided optimization and building a simple distribution system. You could even instrument a fraction of your servers and distribute to the rest.
I do the exact same thing (buy the cheaper versions most of the time).

My dad was in the trades and he bought "good stuff" for his actual trade, but also bought 'affordable' stuff he needed around the house.

The idea is that if you are using a tool every day, and they break on the job it is time, money, embarrassment. How do you tell a customer the cheap saw just broke and you need to get a new one?

The "pro" stuff costs a LOT more, it will outlast if used on a regular basis, but most home owners will not reach those limits.
I saw a documentary on Putin's rise to power that included (others do not) coverage of how the oligarchs in Russia (seven of them) basically set or determined how Putin would govern. They wanted a democracy friendly to their interests (capitalism) as the post-Yelstin era was beginning. It was quite revealing how Putin was subject to them and it reminded me a lot of America and our leaders and how they cowar to business leaders (and Trump's association with Russians). They agreed to stay out of politics if Putin stayed out of commerce. The oligarchs then divided up various industries among themselves.

In the end, it left the impression on me that Putin is just a player or a puppet who owes a lot of people.

How comfortable would you be if you learned that your cloud provider allowed a contractor in a random overseas country to connect to your production servers from a laptop on which he also read his personal email?

Would you like them to have some controls in place to prevent that?

Would you like that to be enforced consistently and audited?

Would you like them to provide you with a certification that their procedures to ensure that doesn’t happen meet some minimal standard?

Congratulations, you have invented ‘demanding SOC2 compliance from vendors’.

And the upshot of it is that some contractors have to put up with jumping through some hoops.

It's an interesting idea but I'm seeing whispers of No True Scotsman fallacy.

It's true, of course, that the end result will be a subset of the people leading and most not (which is an outgrowth of basic specialization theory: if everyone's in charge of coordination and leadership, nobody has time to do the work that needs coordination and leadership). But was the new elite always apart from the followers and supporters, or are the rulers overthrown and during that process some subset of the overthrowers become a new elite due to the needs of specialization? Or, to say it another way: would the "new elite" have ever been an elite if they hadn't won?

George Washington was never commissioned in the British army. Fidel Castro was the bastard son of an immigrant. Had their revolutions not succeeded, would history remember them as elite?

Perhaps we misunderstand each other. Of course I have read that sideloading specifically is more difficult on iPadOS; this was not an unknown fact to me. However, that wasn't the sole factor in my choice of device (and if openness was my #1 priority, I could've just asked for (it was a gift) a PineTab).

The usability of the device for day-to-day tasks is the most important, and since I use a lot of apps on my phone, I mistakenly thought that this would also be an important factor w.r.t. usability when it comes to tablets. Therefore, when I read in reviews that the app ecosystem was much worse on other tablet OSes, that pushed me towards iPadOS. Again, privacy was also a factor (when compared to Android).

In 2021, any OS choice is ultimately a balance between usability, privacy and openness. If your last experience with a device class was a decade ago, it can be difficult to balance those factors.

(Now, if the mobile landscape resembled the PC landscape a bit more, trying different OSes wouldn't be so cumbersome. But that's a whole other can of worms...)
