So... the problem with that argument is that users do not choose whether or not to have fonts on their webpages. The web developer does that. No browser will, out-of-the-box, ask you "Hey, do you want to send your IP address and Referer to Google in order to see this website with the correct font?" or "Hey, do you want to run this untrustworthy, obfuscated, proprietary blob of Somebody Else's Code in a sandbox?". You just tell the browser "go to this website", and it dutifully does whatever the website says within the web sandbox.

If this was a clickable link to Google, and the EU was saying that telling people to go to Google makes you a GDPR data exporter, then I'd be up in arms about this.

But it's not.

What we're talking about are subresource references, not anchor links. Those get loaded automatically without user control, and users do not get the ability to audit them by default. So it's reasonable to argue that subresource requests are "caused" by the developer of the website, not the user.

Furthermore, this is how actual ad trackers work. It's very common for ad trackers to include a reference to either a script file or a 1x1 pixel GIF (the latter called a "tracking pixel"). This isn't a misinterpretation of GDPR, it's the heart of the issue. If we treat subresources the same as clicking a link, then GDPR is a hollow, toothless meme of a law.

That world already existed, it was every civilization that used currency before the electronic payment system. The only caveat was that it had to be exchanged in person. Governments levied taxes on goods at points they could easily view and control, e.g. tariffs on imports and exports, taxes on goods produced by businesses that couldn't hide, and on landowners, which also can't hide how much land they own.

Konrad Lorenz discusses this in Solomon's Ring. He says that it's fine to cage animals that have limited territory in nature. Thankfully, many reef fish, like clown fish, have limited ranges in nature, so thrive in tanks.

Important to note that this is the BLM Global Network Foundation (BLMGNF), which is not the same as the grassroots, decentralized BLM movement that happened nationally.

If I recall correctly, BLMGNF was formed by a couple folks in Los Angeles to give a formal organization the authority and organizational weight of what the BLM movement was about. The BLM movement, being decentralized and leaderless at the national level, mostly rejected BLMGNF speaking for them and being recognized as the organization of the movement, but BLMGNF moved forward with claiming national leadership regardless.
Sorry no, democracy is not a core tenant of America... Core tenant's of America's founding where Individual rights and self governance.

The Founders took great pains to LIMIT the amount of democracy in our system, because they understood the problems with democracy. The house of Representatives was the only democratically elected part of the government for a reason. We ignored them at our own peril..
> A 2020 study by economists Jennifer L. Doleac and Benjamin Hansen found that Ban the Box increased employer discrimination against young, low-skilled black men. The authors argue that when employers are unable to check job applicants' criminal records early in the hiring process, they instead resort to statistical discrimination against groups that include more ex-offenders.[35]

A 2020 study by economist Evan K. Rose found that Ban the Box had negligible effects on ex-offenders' labor market outcomes.[36]

You can’t just ask businesses to stop doing background checks and employ convicted felons and hope they will not embezzle funds from their new employer. The risk is too high.

You can, actually. Businesses exist at the pleasure of the state and the state can fix these problems. Unfortunately, we've been run by right-wing enablers and crooks (in the sense of unethical rule-breakers, not people with criminal records) for so long, we've forgotten that the left has been proposing workable solutions to these problems for decades.

Unless physical safety is at risk, nothing in a person's past should ever be made a legal reason to deny someone a job. If companies want to stay independent, they should be decent. Otherwise, nationalize them and run them as utilities.
Not answering your question, but making sure the clarification is made that we (in the USA) do not live in a Democracy. We live in a Constitutional Republic.

I know, I know... some people cringe when someone points this out, but it's true.
I would rather my children go to a school that challenges our beliefs, because they may be wrong. I don't want the growing up parroting what I believe just because I believe it, they should come to their own conclusions.
RAM and other state can be part of a snapshot for VMs, in which case the VM will continue right where it was.

The state of a container is not part of the snapshot (just checked), as it is really hard to capture the state of the container (CPU, network, all kinds of file and socket handles) and restore it because all an LXC container is, is local processes in their separate cgroups. This is also the reason why a live migration is not really possible right now, as all that would need to be cut out from the current host machine and restore in the target machine.

This is much easier for VMs as Qemu offers a nice abstraction layer.
From the time we decided it was time to sell (for real, not just theoretically) until the money was in the bank, almost 18 months. It took us 2 months to find an advisor, then another 3-4 months building the deck and investor material (cashflows, projections, etc). We put up a bid, so we had some 8 companies interested at first and we narrowed that down to 3. That process was LONG, but that is what gets better valuation - competition. After we signed the term sheet it was another 6 months due to regulation and legal quirks, due to the acquirer being a public company. Those were the longest 6 months of our lives :)
How automateable is this tool? Does it have a good built-in toolkit for doing things in an automated way?

All in all, I find this trend for fancy applications-as-text to be poisonous & treacherous to what the console is: a highly flexible, dynamic, integrated environment for working systems. An application is a self-contained little microcosm, ignorant & inaccessble to the rest of the system. The application has been a horrific, cruel invention, expedient for mechanizing user behavior & creating happy paths, but robbing us of general systems competency, inflexible, and so so so isolated.

I worry. I worry a lot that projects like this destroy one of the only genuine & authentic computing experiences around, the console. I think there's ways to make sure that all the UI you present can be automated, but I doubt so very much this library nor most of the other ones respect the environment, give a fair shake to genuine users. These are lies.

Creating a powerful library like this but not having built-in machine-accessible interfaces would be deeply dangerous, leaving it to each application to create it's own parallel machine interfaces would be catastrophic.
Er, I am literally arguing for the opposite: report the facts; protect identity; don't get into the social mores / titillation conversation.
OP phrased that weirdly (and apparently doesn’t know that no one calls themselves a small d democrat - just not a phrase normal people use).

The point though, is that most people who support ending police brutality know that BLM Global Network Foundation is mismanaged. There are many other groups doing work to fight against police brutality which have more support from people involved in that movement.

This article is written in a seriously weird manner.
This article is the best argument for unsupervised free play that I've seen. Adults have no business moralizing and interfering as children negotiate relationships on their own. It's developmentally important. Children who lack that experience will constantly look for authoritative arbiters of the relationships. That's the soil that societal authoritarianism grows in.
Tell me this, can a user still use an external password manager with WebAuth or maintain the password themselves, or does it require the user to have their OS generate and store the key? From what I can tell, this looks more like an industry effort to have users integrate their passwords into various major-players sync services which is far from ideal for many users who actually want some control over where their passwords are stored and how they are generated.
Purports to be about consent of the governed, will of the people, popular rule etc. In reality, you can't even prevent your own children from being taught as truth some pseudomoral garbage that maybe 5-10% of the population believes. Basically it transfers power to the most motivated actors, almost regardless of their popularity.
> If the son drove it without permission, it sounds like the son ought to get both a DUI and an auto theft charge.

There is no way justice would be served by convicting the son of auto theft if the owner of the vehicle (i.e. the dad)—the only one with any actual standing in the case—has no interest in pressing charges. Fines or jail time for a DUI conviction with no evidence of actual harm resulting from the event is already pushing the boundaries of a rationally justifiable, proportional response. (Revoking the son's driving license, on the other hand, would be a reasonable and predictable outcome.)
"By age 35, 64% of unemployed men have been arrested and 46% have been convicted of a crime, with the rates varying only slightly by race and ethnicity."

Well, executing criminals for minor offenses seems to be out of fashion.[1] Transportation to Australia or Siberia is no longer an option. There's no frontier to ship them off to. And the US military doesn't want criminals; each soldier today has too much firepower.

There are ways back, but it's hard to scale them. Delancey Street Restaurant in SF is staffed by ex-cons. (I recommend the chicken.)

I have a conjecture I can not prove, built up over decades: we are all wild animals, in personally varying degrees, regardless of species (for those normally labelled as such).

One example of this is people living with pet tigers and lions, who behave exactly like domestic sized felines, but of course are bigger than humans so can actually hurt you when wrestling in play, etc. . People kill other people out of fear, a wild animal sort of thing itself.

Anyway, I just have not thought of a counterexample to the assertion that wild animals extend into the realm of things called domestic.
They banned them because the teachers hadn't been paying attention (and kids were hoarding the "good pieces"), and brought them back with three rules:

1. everyone can play with any structure but you can't change someone else's structure

2. play has to be together

3. all structures must be a standard size

If a database of passwords is compromised, but the passwords are properly hashed and salted (server-side, not client-side), then you would need a rainbow table for each salt in order to actually get something usable from the compromised data.
This is the best comment here. The most successful children in elementary school are the ones who have gone through those social conflicts in preschool and worked things out for themselves. Sometimes that means mental conflict, sometimes that means not engaging with your peers and then having to forgive, barter, trade, etc.
I set base DPI to native. Then set GDK environment variables to scale up to double so UI and fonys aren't tiny in apps like chromium. QT scaling env variables, and the Trolltech conf for font size in apps like Beyond Compare. Then a HiDPI font config for Gimp. Each version of GTK has its own dconf settings. Then there's Firefox which requires an environment variable for HiDPI in wayland. Mouse cursor size must be configured in both Sway and X. Font size for terminals like Kitty. Display managers often have their own separate config, e.g. SDDM. Its a nightmare.

Run switchdev with Netris, if you have SmartNIC you can hit 100Gbps.
Good parents should do this, but from what I see this is not what is happening in modern schools.

It was starting to change even when I was in public schools 30 years ago, and from what see it has only gotten worse.

Lets Critical thinking, and less open questioning, more authority, follow the rules, do not question "The Experts", do as your told (but only what those in Authority tell you not your parents) etc.

"He calculates that the ceiling for an 85-kilogram man would be about 4650 calories per day.

Speakman thinks that limit is too low, noting that cyclists in the Tour de France in the 1980s and ’90s exceeded it. But they were injecting fat and glucose directly into their bloodstreams, a practice Pontzer thinks might have helped them bypass the physiological limits on converting food into energy."

Is this really true, that cyclists are injecting fat and glucose directly into
their bloodstreams? I can't believe that. I have never heard that before.

Frankly, the tools themselves are quite similar for the web dev that I do, so I can have the same set of tools running on either OS but it's the little utilities that counts.

There may be alternatives in Windows with same quality but haven't looked at Windows other than gaming for a while.

- QR code generator on copy (No you don't paste nor hit the generate button but it produces the code on copy while the app is running)

- Clipboard manager that can search and preview images even. Who can live without a good clipboard manager these days? Losing password you just generated because you copied your user name should be a thing of the past. I heard Win11 finally getting one. Didn't find any good third party ones the last time I looked.

- Trackpad. This is such a good stuff, I just swipe down with my 3 fingers to close any tab/window with customizable gestures. No more hitting the tiny close button and plenty others tailored for each app as if my right hand is a magic wand.

- A good terminal with even better third party one. Windows finally getting Windows Terminal or WSL shell but was a decade late to the entry.

- iOS simulator. It's handy to check how a web site behaves in iOS within your OS.

- Develop for iOS/macOS. For those who do.

And generally the better look throughout than the convoluted structure of Windows app with 10 drop downs in the menu bar, 20 icons below that, with settings hidden under, settings -> advanced -> more.

And it's even worse when it comes to OS setting that is cross buried in the new settings and the control panel that still exists.

I don't get distracted by the OS except for the occasional OS update that would hold me up for 10 minutes.

And the hardware is good too and I guess no one complains Mac is expensive when an Air is like $1k.
> Treat them with respect, eye contact, don't make about sex and generally don't be a dick. Usually works in all social circumstances.

This is generally a great way to make friends. This is not how you court a partner. People will tell you about exceptional circumstances but they're just that - exceptional circumstances.
Ask HN: Is there a Linux project recreating the macOS desktop env verbatim?
I'm talking about a project making minimal design decisions and trying to faithfully recreate the MacOS desktop such that it would be difficult to tell it apart from the Apple one.
Yeah, it seems here that people are just getting confused about which organization is actually in charge due to two different organizations registering very similar names. I wonder if they trademarked the brand Black Lives Matter, and if so if they attempted to enforce it to prevent something like this from happening, or if they are in fact affiliated with each other.

Why is he downvoted?
Well, it seems this 'confusion' has tricked even the biggest companies to not only 'show support' for the movement with their now pointless banners, but also donate to the organisation which basically failed to be held accountable for the missing $60M that was spent on properties.

They supported both, including the 'Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation'.

So they were supporting fraudsters all this time?
It requires people to be educated about what they are voting on. Having people spend time educating themselves wastes a lot of societal time. Voting doesn't scale well so people end up delegating their votes to someone else who usually doesn't have the same exact beliefs and may vote different than themselves. It turns into a popularity contest. The process of making decisions can be slow.
> the product not being able to integrate with your product like they claimed

This one jumped out at me.

I've definitely seen integration struggles post-acquisition, but I typically find that the parent company (buyer) needs to be accountable for that integration. But you seem to be saying it is the seller's responsibility to understand the buyer's product and evaluate the integration during due diligence? Did I read that correctly? If so, I'd like to understand that perspective better - would you be willing to elaborate?
I'm confused about your hypothetical. Why would they have to do that? Could you explain that issue more?

This is an argument against programming by autocomplete, not an argument against programming with IDEs. IDEs make this method of programming possible, but they don't make it mandatory. The primary thing I use autocomplete for is to insert method calls that I already know that I want. Secondarily I use it like a documentation browser to read the documentation for every function that I could call if I'm trying to figure out a better way to do something. If you program by just selecting functions at random without taking the time to figure out the problem you're solving and the easiest way to solve it with the tools at your disposal, eschewing the IDE will not save you.

I do plenty of programming without autocomplete as well and it doesn't bother me. But it's certainly nice to have, it reduces a lot of the friction of finding documentation and putting code on the page when you already know what you want.

"Fighting the OS" you develop may lead to you fixing the errors and deficiencies of the system that annoy you and possibly annoy other people too.
One thing I've been doing for technical books and papers recently is focusing on coming back to material regularly, especially if it's something I don't see frequently. I've used Anki in the past for this, but I actually ended up making my own simple spaced-repetition based app to handle the "when should I review this material" question.

Combined with outlines I make for myself for the material, this means I can have a pretty regular review to keep things fresh in my mind. If things are a little too rusty, I can either review the source material or review it sooner the next time.
Yes, a core tenet of the USA was to limit how much democracy black people, poor people and women could have. It's much worse now.... apparently.
There are some great questions in here. But what I'm most curious about is how the keep the individual segments from sinking into the seabed at different rates. I can't imagine that the interfaces would remain water tight if any segment sunk by, say, more than 30cm. Can we really be certain about the stability of sediment underwater at the loads that will be applied?
This is a ridiculous response to a commonplace observation. Men and women have enormously different experiences in the dating market. 99th percentile encounters are the entirety of romantic interaction. Outside societies that have rigid sex segregation well over 99% of all interaction with potential romantic partners is non-romantic.

Is Denmark really angry?

About construction delays and politicians getting in the way etc., I can only think of BER as a catastrophic project. Do you have more in mind?
Yeah. I've got it and so far I've taken less than I had at my previous job. And this is at a company that says they want you to take it (as long as you're keeping up with your work). But if you're consistently slammed with work there's not really any time to take it.

I'll still probably end up taking at least 3 weeks this year, so it's not like I'm being super robbed or anything, just that it doesn't really feel like a significantly better perk than the 4 weeks and some change PTO I had at my previous company.
It wouldn't help, just change the number of pieces involved in the conflicts. Speaking from experience, you can never have so many Legos that you don't want more.
That doesn't solve the problem.
