There are such posts about each and every platform out there. In addition to not knowing what's the ban frequency, there's also no info in those complaints if they got banned for a good reason.

Last winter people got fed up with antivax-dewormer-nomasker bullshit and a lot of subreddits just took the trash out, so those complaints you saw might just be be those dumbasses.

I'm not saying there aren't annoying powertripping mods on Reddit, e.g. r/Linux, but there always tends to be an alternative subreddit one can use.
wild theory, sometimes I have this feeling that divorce is badly seen because

1) people jump between partners too often when free, it's easier but maybe less deep

2) family stability is important, and noble (it's a hard compromise but others complicated things are important and noble)

3) in the past social, family and intimate stability were probably a lot more important than today, so we inherited that perspective, even though today we may care less

ps: saying this I understand perfectly how human relationship, marriage are complex, volatile and how no one wants to rot in a bad relationship. :)

Government printing fiat is fantastic for the government. Government controlled currency is terrible for individual freedom and for democracies. We just never had an alternative before. Stripping away this power from the government is another important step in human liberty.
Libertarian, but under his direct control? I don't think Libertarian means what you think it means.

On the other hand we managed to end up with a suspiciously high number of communist dictatorships, which is equally contradictory, so who knows.
Rust isn't a complex language by the standards of languages like C++. Complexity arises by features that work together in surprising ways. Rust has a medium-large amount of features (similar to Python (though obviously with a more imposing learning curve than Python)), but those features tend to compose very well, which keeps complexity from ballooning.

I think you overestimate the amount that can be raised, i.e $10bn. It is really hard to raise those type of amounts, even with crowdfunding, without rich countries. Especially when the cash ends up sitting there.

If it was committed but you could use it until the bounty was met then that's different. But then you end up back at the old pricing model.
I wonder if it's possible to prove that you can't end up with a non-deterministic system if that system is constituted only by deterministic parts? I get the sense that such a proof is possible, but I am not sure. We can trivially prove it for deterministic systems that we can model mathematically, but what about a generic proof for those systems that are beyond our modelling capabilities?

Regarding existence itself, I agree that determinism is not an exhaustive set of possibilities (if it was, it would imply an infinite chain of causes, which presents its own problems). I just challenge the idea that one can possibly get a non-deterministic system if we assume that we're working with purely deterministic components/rules.
> This exception alone would seem to fly in the face of the notion that romantic love can be conceptually-modeled as a mere epiphenomenon of genetic sovereignty and autonomy.

Biologically romantic love between same sex partners is more or less equivalent to love with an infertile partner. Such love doesn't have to mean that there has been evolutionary pressure for such feelings to those particular partners. It could just mean that there has been strong evolutionary pressure to support the feeling of love, but the genetic mechanisms for identifying a fertile partner of the complimentary sex is imperfect. If it works often enough that sufficient babies are produced those false positives are tolerable.

This can be thought of as similar to disease resistance. When someone young dies from a disease it isn't evidence that we are evolved to die from the disease, just that our biology has limitations.

Of course we can't rule out that homosexual and other infertile relationships have evolutionary advantages. See e.g. John Maynard Smith's "sneaky fuckers strategy".

> This is similar to why police should not use DNA collected for medical research.

No, not quite. In one case, a person didn't realize his or her DNA was provided to law enforcement. In the case of the rape kit, the person most likely was aware.

If I were the victim of a crime and the Police had DNA that they collected which could prove the identity of the perpetrator, I'd be concerned if the police didn't use it.

It's entirely okay for you to have that point of view.

Interesting development. However, I do wonder at some point if those desiring fast packet processing shouldn't just bite the bullet and adopt something DPDK-based (eg, FDIO/VPP).

I think pure-interrupt packet processing is challenged (for the reasons laid out in the article). But getting people to dedicate a core/thread [to RX/TX polling] is also a hard sell.

Either way this is good news - more pps/bps!

One aspect of this article that's touched on but not really explored in the article is the greater Sidekiq ecosystem. Beyond just the core Sidekiq application working well there are a host of well maintained open source add-ons to Sidekiq that are tremendously helpful.

Statistics
https://github.com/davydovanton/sidekiq-statistic

Failure Handling
https://github.com/mhfs/sidekiq-failures

Unique Jobs
https://github.com/mhenrixon/sidekiq-unique-jobs

All of which also extend the web UI for Sidekiq which is incredibly useful for both debugging and having a handle on what's with your queues.

Finally, if you're going to be using Sidekiq in any serious way I'd recommend Nate Berkopec's "Sidekiq in Practice" - https://nateberk.gumroad.com/l/sidekiqinpractice

Beyond being an incredibly useful resource on its own - you get access to a very active private Slack that is filled with other very helpful developers who are using Sidekiq.

Haskell: Solving Real-World Problems with Strongly Typed Functional Programming
Fortunately for the rest of us, common Linux distro maintainers have a better understanding of security than you appear to.

If I download a pdf, I don't want it to run. I probably want to open it, but if I've gone through the trouble of downloading it onto the filesystem as opposed to just opening it in the web browser, there may be other things I want to do with it. Maybe I want to print it, or maybe I want to break it up into component parts. Or maybe I want to transfer it to a sandboxed environment before I open it because I don't trust it.

If you don't want to take an active role in maintaining security on your computer, then by all means use a commercial operating system. Pay a license and let Microsoft and Apple make those decisions for you. They have competent people who can program reasonable default settings for the average user. If you're running Linux or an open source operating system, you've already decided to take these responsibilities into your own hands.
There will always be a place for those of us who like tinkering with software and/or computer hardware, the nerds. We like using the CLI or Vim or Emacs. We go deep on compilers and PLT. But I personally welcome those who aren't nerds in the same way. I like showing them how to be more efficient in their work, build more robust/reliable software, and helping them understand the job they are doing better. Maybe, I'm nerding out about mentorship but I find it rewarding to help the non-nerd become just a little more nerdy in their career. It's an opportunity not a problem.
I realize any interest I had about computers was more of a "how does this work?" type of deal, and I'm not interested in making whatever app or site or something. "Oh, you don't need to know that. You just need to know enough to use it. Treat it like a black box." Great, I'm interested in how it works, and not in what I can do with it. And when it's something like networks or operating systems how it works can become boring very fast because they're often basically just design decisions of other people, from how I see it anyway.
>The hope is that in the future crypto breaks free of the connection to fiat

wow, I don't know what kind of hope this is, and I avoid commenting on any crypto currency[0]. Since the comment appears to be genuine, I've felt compelled.

Not only that. If they had simply sold it by mistake it would be bad, but somewhat understandable as a simple mistake. The worst thing is they refused the return, even though they knew from the RMA sticker that it was broken at the time of (re)sale.
An improved version of the idea was described in 1987 using passively stable attractive levitation (stabilized by the alternating gradient principle.)

The attractive feature of these concepts is that cost scales linearly with radius, but energy stored scales as radius squared.

I actually prefer unittest style tests to pytest. I hop between languages a lot and find them easier to remember how to write when I'm doing Python. I also place a lot of value on minimizing the dependencies that I have to install and every codebase I see using pytest seems to also have to pull in a dozen other pytest plugins that then have to be reviewed, pinned, and updated. I also feel like whatever niceties pytest brings in to make writing tests easier are balanced out on Django apps by having to add a `@pytest.mark.django_db` decorator on basically every single test function.
Looks cool, love the UI.
Not to mention that someone having "thought of that" at some prior point isn't a good reason not to explore it from your own perspective; your predecessors were not perfect or all-knowing.
> Crypto is only fun when it’s arbitrarily going up in value

If you treat it like a casino then that is true.

Ideally, it takes over fiat currencies altogether and takes away the government’s ability to Arbitrarily create money out of thin air whenever it benefits them.
I have written code (at work) that crashes when the moon is in a specific phase.

Admittedly, the alliterative title is catchy. Curious if what occurs in the learning process is really "pattern recognition," then innovation. When a child learns to play the piano, are they "imitating" Bach and Beethoven or recognizing patterns of chord progressions? When a child learns to read/write, they are probably not imitating childhood authors per se, rather, learning patterns in how words are assembled.

Perhaps, creativity is simply an extension of the same process. Recognize pleasing patterns, learning which can be broken, and assembling those patterns in a new way?
Well done! Fun.

> It's incredibly naive to think that life would have continued as usual without lockdowns.

What a truly bizarre strawman.

You are very lucky if you got away with just a month of lockdowns.

It might not seem that way, but this is actually a simple mathematical problem. How many young healthy people traded in a month of the best years of their life in order to extend the life of that 80yo?

Web browsers told me they'd try better verification markers for years. They never did. So we don't know, except to say:

a. the 'green bar' verification marker isn't very effective.

b. the 'blue tick' logo as used for UIs like https://twitter.com/troyhunt hasn't been tried so browser makers have no data here.

It's a moot point: the realpolitik is browsers don't care about identity as it's not in their financial interest to do so.

You're not exactly Babe Ruth calling the shot on this one. If you post something that isn't intellectually gratifying and purely petty, then yes, you're going to be downvoted on Hacker News.

If you posted something along the lines of "Here's the version that isn't paywalled" or "this article has a more interesting analysis", people wouldn't have dogpiled you. Instead, you buried the lede and mentioned some pseudo-experiment, which isn't going to get a lot of traction around here. If you want to endlessly fight with people over attribution credits and updoot points, you'd probably get a real kick out of Reddit.

Rust feature flags aren't the same as Haskell feature flags. In Haskell you design your own programming language by selecting which extensions to enable. In Rust, feature flags only exist on the unstable nightly compiler and either get folded into the language proper or deprecated and dropped entirely. It's not a combinatorial explosion of interacting extensions, it's a single base for everyone that grows over time.

A penny saved is a penny earned. Many programmers are employed to automate tasks and reduce labor requirements. That adds value to the organization. You are splitting hairs by saying "the program" vs "the programming". You are a wizard that casts spells to make people's jobs easier. What exactly that means depends on the management. Once a job becomes easier they can either pay fewer employees to do the job or they can take more clients with the staff they have. That's not my decision. My job is to add value to the enterprise by reducing labor costs.

> Crypto is only fun when it’s arbitrarily going up in value, which would seem to be somewhat curtailed but these bans.

From what I understand a huge use case for crypto is sending remittances. About 12 billion USD was sent to India from the USA in 2017 and the fees associated with a crypto transaction pale in comparison to that of Western Union.

The down side, of course, is the question of legality and market volatility.

This is not a use case that I personally have a use for, but I certainly understand the appeal of it.
Of course ATL is a homage to Ken Iverson's APL. His language treated multidimensional matrices up to 64 dimensions as single variables to be manipulated in single steps, thus creating a language that performed many steps in a short space and time. He was a farm-bred Canadian, first in his town to ever go to college, whose thinking was brilliant!
If career ambitions aren't a factor, I'd definitely second Svelte. I used to do frontend dev and switched into a more backend role, but every time I do a hobby project with frontend work, I always pick Svelte. I briefly peek into the others, but Svelte is the simplest by far.
You can run Redis in a persistent setup. So each Redis instance has a replica and both master and replica write out to disk. You still don’t get transactions, but depending on your scale a transaction for every job you enqueue may be impossible.

If you’re small enough that you don’t knock over your DB by putting jobs in it then the transactions are nice!
Agreed. Mine the miners, as they say.
Privateering was legal, and generally only applied towards enemies of the country issuing letters of marque. Piracy was always illegal.

Of course the difference wasn't always clear, especially as privateers generally favored attacking the enemy's commerce shipping rather than their warships. So it was seen as cowardly as well as profitable.
