Really the argument should be about strengthening informed consent. "Safety" is not objective; something that one individual would consider safe might not be safe for another. For example I have friends that like to go sky-diving. For them it's "safe". For me, it's not. Drugs should require a waiver similar to signing up for a credit card. e.g.,

"This drug completed a 12 month Phase 2 clinical trial with 65,917 participants in which the drug demonstrated efficacy of Y against symptomatic disease. 1.5% of participants experienced adverse effects which included runny nose. 0.01% of participants experienced a fatal allergic reaction. These drugs are still undergoing trials and our understanding of safety and efficacy can change in the future.

[ ] Check to indicate you understand and consent"

I think this should be the standard for vaccines, drugs like marijuana and alcohol and cigarettes. Do it at the point-of-sale. For things that are particularly dangerous, maybe require an interview with a physician to make sure the person is of sound mind and capable of consenting. I believe that if you treat people like adults they will naturally make the best decisions for themselves. When you treat people like children, they'll act like children.
It was like world of warcraft but in reality. say for example there was a rumour that someone called 'smokey' could catch an eel. and you wanted to catch an eel. someone would say. Smokey can catch eels. So you and 5 pals would walk 6 miles to find Smokey. You'd sit in the sun and he'd share his stories of how to carry out the task. Then you'd go to the said location at night and fulfill the task. etc. It was fun.
What if I make a $1b fund and put the Krita guy and the Blender team in charge of forming the company apparatus to produce a phone that's not a god damn piece of shit? I would want to stipulate right out the gate that there should be at least 100,000 $1,000 bounties paid in the first three years.
One way to do dynamic macro in static type language is to generate the source code using the host language as separate build process before the compilation of hand-written and generated source code.

For example in Typescript, I use tsc-macro to run "*.macro.ts", they can import any functions and modules just like normal source code. And their evaluated result are saved as "*.ts"

The generated ts are then compiled alone with other hand-written typical source files into js for deployment and execution.

Never take public CIA statements at face value. They say what they want to irrespective of reality and facts.

If what is happening is caused by classified American tech they won't say anything and will find some other "plausible" explanation and my guess is that this is exactly what they are doing. Heck, they may do that even if they know it's caused by a foreign government.

That's the thing with this sort of topic and intelligence agencies: you cannot trust anything you're told.
Every time I've tried to build some elaborate "knowledge garden", it always devolves into post-it notes and random e-mails to myself. Very interested in using something that lets that become my starting point instead of my end result in defeat.
The only thing that gets weird is the primary thread's stack limit, since we need to construct that capability up-front with the right bounds. This means we have a somewhat arbitrary upper limit (which you could make tunable, though I don't think we do, just a #define'd constant) that should be big enough for any reasonable process and reserve all that virtual address space regardless of what the stack limit is (but it's still unmapped and not backed by anything, just a big region of "don't use this as another capability already overlaps with it"). You can then use rlimit(2) to configure your stack limit and the virtual memory subsystem will do the same as it does on non-CHERI, just you won't be able to exceed that threshold, and the capability's bounds for the stack pointer will always cover the maximum possible mapping, not the mapping you're actually using.

Everything else is the same, just "as much as your system can fit (and system policies will let you)". Which will be slightly less, because pointers are bigger, but we don't have any additional tables that impose arbitrary restrictions on what you can do.

LIBOR is often part of the formula for calculating loan interest rates. Last time I saw such code it looked something like:

LIBOR + bank's minimum interest rate + a rate based on creditworthiness = your offered interest rate

Planet Money recently had a really good episode on how some banks are deciding on a replacement rate: https://www.npr.org/2021/10/08/1044598674/libor-pains

Which is behind the ‘Buy’ button in the top nav.

Not sure what happened in the grandparent comment, but it’s very much transparent and easy to find.

It also has a neat calculator, so it’s easy to figure out exact pricing for various scenarios, which is quite unlike so many closed libraries I’ve seen.

Running in dev mode it also has a visible watermark on it, which says “GoJs evaluation © Northwoods Software. Not for distribution or production use nwoods.com”, meaning there’s almost zero chance that you wouldn’t notice at dev time that you’d need to license this before putting it into production.
I'll say this. If you're in the middle of this culture you might not see it clearly.

I knew someone who spent a lot of time in a small town in Alaska and told me how the people there were obsessed with guns. If there was a story in the newspaper about vandals shooting up an outhouse the story would be full of juicy details about what exact kind of ammunition was used because the people in that small town wanted to know.

Really I am not offended by artists who use vocoder effects that are in character like Kraftwerk. I do think though that there have been a few phenomena in music production that I see from a distance.

One of them is that the vocals are really different than they were before 1990. I don't mind that Cher song because it was fresh at the time. I never liked T-Pain and I can't stand modern rap. I got into an argument on the phone with the DJ of an urban music program at a local college radio station and told him I wanted to hear some rap that wasn't auto-tuned. (I am a big fan of rap up until M.F. Doom or so.)

He put on a track from Three feet high and rising and I was struck with how completely out of place it was compared to newer rap.

Another thing I noticed was how many artists who were highly productive in the 1970s became irrelevant in the 1980s. I love synth music like Depeche Mode and Information Society but it seemed like the pervasive use of synths and a "music word processor" had something to do with why Billy Joel and so many others got "too old to rock and roll."

Here is a circa 1980 track which I think is one of the best engineered tracks of all time

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYGQe0kRb4o

what I like about it is how the vocals are kept distinct from the instrumentals such that the vocals have a strong effect almost like a-capella that you just don't see in the Punk genre that this track appears to be part of. I think there was a labor intensive process involved in "cutting holes" in the instrumentals in time-frequency space so that they didn't stomp on the vocals. Today I see technology used not to improve music but as a labor saving device and I think the quality suffers.
Oh absolutely. Something like marijuana should not have ever been a crime. It's absurd and horrifying to think of people spending their lives behind bars for that and many other drug offenses.
The Debian 11 release notes say:

«
From Linux 5.10, all users are allowed to create user namespaces by default. This will allow programs such as web browsers and container managers to create more restricted sandboxes for untrusted or less-trusted code, without the need to run as root or to use a setuid-root helper.

The previous Debian default was to restrict this feature to processes running as root, because it exposed more security issues in the kernel. However, as the implementation of this feature has matured, we are now confident that the risk of enabling it is outweighed by the security benefits it provides.

If you prefer to keep this feature restricted, set the sysctl:
user.max_user_namespaces = 0

Note that various desktop and container features will not work with this restriction in place, including web browsers, WebKitGTK, Flatpak and GNOME thumbnailing.
»

Does anyone know a reason to keep this feature enabled on a server, other than Docker's rootless mode?
You can see Voter ID laws by state - https://ballotpedia.org/Voter_identification_laws_by_state and look at voter turnout. There is no correlation between those laws and turnout, which makes you wonder why people pretend there is...
Technically disclosure is supposed to encourage innovation by allowing people to see what's up and then [..] "find a better way"

Except that if you acknowledge the existence of the patent (for example in an internal paper trail), you will then be found liable for willful infringement and will face triple damages, even if you honestly believe you found a way to avoid using the method covered by the patent.

At least that's the legal advice I've seen coming from the USA:

- never talk to cops

- never read a patent

- never read proprietary source code
The other difference is that LIBOR is a forward-looking rate, whereas SOFR (unless you have Term SOFR) is a backward looking rate (i.e. that is for LIBOR you know at the start of the month what rate you will pay for the following month, whereas with SOFR you don't know the rate until the end of the interest period [or 5 days before in the case of lookback])
Oh, look, another org-mode replacement!
So you believe you have more acute sense of temperature and pressure? There is an element of meditation involved
Exactly. Centralizing resources at the state level - whether it's financial, social or whatever - removes the biggest success factor: what's in it for me? A lot of people tend to look at that phrase cynically. I tend to be more pragmatic - no one is going to care about my needs more than I am. And if I go the 100% selfish path then no one else is going to want to interact with me, so it's in my self interest to NOT be a jerk - self governing.

Start to break down those personal interdependencies (and remove some of those self governing mechanisms at the same time too) by inserting shortcuts around them - like substituting resources from government - and you start to see things break down.

Just look at the effects of welfare on minority communities. Disincentives for young women from getting married and you have generations of kids, especially young males, without the influence of a father - and the results of that are pretty apparent. As others point out, even crappy parents are often way better than the alternatives.

The middle class of the black community in particular was rapidly expanding post WWII - until the "great society" welfare programs kicked in, with pretty devastating results - to them, anyway. It was a boon for politicians who now had power over an ever growing and dependent base.
I agree that it might have been better for that to be the TypeScript idiom, but it's not, due to the longer-standing popularity and concision and language-level support for enums. (Which couldn't have originally been designed to be lowered to symbols, because at the time symbols weren't widely-supported enough.)

It’s not dose dependent though, it’s a dangerous poison that causes cancer. Your other examples are completely different. Tylenol is closest, but you’re really talking about overdose. Drinking a couple of glasses of wine a day isn’t an overdose.

Yes, there may be some nasty chronic effects of tylenol too, but I think you’re trying really hard to fit a square peg in a round hole.

It is really common in the gay community for people to not have children and to struggle throughout their working years. While many get help from family from childhood to early adulthood it is still common for gay people to either get kicked out of or flee from their homes and families at or before official adulthood.

It seems like punishing people for not having children and not being consistently successful in their working life is going to leave a lot of old people destitute. That is not necessarily a simple cultural issue.

Maybe that is a form of exploit mitigation? Maybe they can't cache the TLS pointer because the kernel may change it out from under you without warning? I do agree that it smells like a possible performance issue and it seems like there must be a better way to do it.

Well, most terminal editors don’t capture the mouse at all — this is what I personally prefer (let the terminal emulator handle it) and as a bonus it fixes this problem.
Agreed. I'm in no way advocating people dying from any source. Drugs laws are ridiculous in so many ways. I was just trying to wrap my head around what the true numbers are as it helps put things into context.
Really disagree with this. The existence of patents is a significant hamper on entrepreneurship. There are a lot of business spaces where you simply cannot touch because billion and trillion dollar companies have deep patent portfolios they’ll fight with. Think things like hardware and devices. Even garbage like using a fingerprint to authenticate with you bank.

As a small timer, the patent system is just a way to extract a tax from other people or sell your patent to a big business that’ll use it to bully people like I mentioned.

Plenty of businesses have been founded on out executing giants, and won. Sure they had to maybe carve out a niche or have an edge at first (nothing says you cannot have trade secrets without patents).
Also, banks are insured by the government (FDIC) and heavily regulated to reduce the risk of failure. Crypto exchanges are not, which is why they seem to fail about as often as a 19th century bank would.
You're right. There are 5 garbage patents instead of one.

> 9195258: System and method for synchronizing operations among a multiplicity of digital data processing devices that are separately clocked

I am struggling to see merit. It reads like "devices can play music in sync if you send them the timing info" which is not novel. Maybe I'm missing something, but I am doubtful. The patent system is full of garbage and patents are written to be obtuse on purpose.

> 10209953: Playback device

The abstract is literally identical to the previous patent word for word. I don't think this should at all be considered a separate patent. Partly because the claims seem like garbage, but mostly because it's just more of the same from the first. This is written to be almost impossible to parse, but the first claim in English is "two devices on a LAN can connect and coordinate playback based on one device's clock". It's NTP. Sorry, it's "NTP, plus audio".

> 8588949: Method and apparatus for adjusting volume levels in a multi-zone system

One knob, multiple speakers. Old idea. Every smart home app has exactly this same concept for lights and speaker systems have done this for decades without the software. It is not novel.

> 9219959: Multi-channel pairing in a media system

Jesus Christ. "You can use multiple speakers to play multiple audio channels." It is not novel that your speakers can be "smart".

> 10439896: Playback device connection

Ugh. "You can use your phone to add a device."

None of this stuff is novel. The last one seems the most novel, but also not valid because it essentially describes part of the WPS protocol, but using an app instead of a router button.

I don't see that it's "entitlement" to think these are garbage. The software industry giants have fought a long time for the patent office to acknowledge software patents that are not actually novel. I honestly hope this crap starts to hurt them more and maybe they'll start pushing for reform. But probably not because the primary effect is to harm smaller competitors.

I guess in my head "expressiveness" is some fuzzy combination of what you are able to do plus how easy it is to do those things. I'd consider a calculator that supports real numbers to be more expressive than one which only supports integers, all else being equal.

Maybe this definition is idiosyncratic, though. It's certainly not objective.

This is interesting... I really like that someone is building a note taking app specifically for developers. The way I take notes to assist in the process of writing software is quite different than taking notes for posterity sake. When just taking notes, what's produced are, well, notes. When using a scratchpad while developing for keeping track of little details, ideas, results, links to blog posts or docs, any kinds of breadcrumb, or anything along the way is sort of like scaffolding that is important _only while building_.

My five year old is some kind of evidence here. I let him listen to all kinds of music while showering, and he likes most the stuff from 70-80-90. Not children music either.

He loves hard rock or metal. He recently sang along to queen, running around on the playground singing Beelzebub has a devil put aside for him, which is a bit worrying even if he doesn't understand much English. Things like Arsenal, R.E.M. and K's Choice are also welcome.

But he doesn't care at all about more modern stuff, even if there is more of it on the radio. It just bores him. We sometimes let him choose from a playlist, and he always ends up in different genres from the same periods.

I was working at an investment bank (as a developer) when this scandal hit. My entire department was laid off as a result. Not because we were involved or complicit in the scandal, but because the scandal indirectly caused a big financial hit to the bank and we were part of the cost cutting measures.

It was a traumatic and tragic moment for me at the time. But in hindsight it was the event that lead to my eyes being opened to the world of Silicon Valley tech companies. Until then, I had naively thought that working as a developer in the IT departments of Wall Street investment banks and hedge funds* was the pinnacle of a SWE career.
