Were they remote-only roles? Did those roles involve in-person interaction with others?
The distinction is that she'll "work for gays as long as they're not getting married". Still a shitty thing to do, so the parent commenter's point still stands.

This brings up an interesting thought I had while reading this.

Let's hypothetically take this to an extreme, take off the veneer. Let's say John hates some group of people. Let's disregard whether that group is defined by mutable or immutable characteristics. Does John have a right to hate those people? Does he have a right to express that hatred in a non violent, non coercive way? And if so, what does that entail? Is it about speech? Is making a painting speech? A website? What about making a cocktail? And why is it limited to speech, just because of the letter of the law? Does one have the right to associate with whom they please, and do business with whom they please?
If you listen to the next question, it seems like he was talking about people in the U.S. donating to the movement.
The signs nailed to Tucker Carlson’s door aside, the line should be clear: private citizens should be able to refuse service for any stated reason (and they get to accept the social consequences as well if other people don’t like their refusal); government officials cannot refuse service. This should not be difficult.

The case in question may be more nuanced than this — TFA is paywalled.
The wordlist definitely isn't perfect, and obviously each person has their own vocabulary, but it still is a key. It's something the creator mentions, if on your first play you run into a stupid word, you probably won't come back the next day. And the fact that the current word list is 1/th the total word count goes to show how many words are ridiculous.

AFAIK his partner actually sifted through all 13k word list and categorized all of them into 3-4 buckets, which is what lead to the final 2.5k answer list.

Am I the only one who feels like we have really stretched the definition of "speech"? I don't even think written word counts as speech in the literal sense, which is why the first amendment specifically mentions freedom of the press as well. If "speech" meant "literally anything produced by a human" then they would not have added the bit about press freedom.

I feel a similar way about the contractor vs employee debate around Uber. Uber drivers are so clearly neither, but we get so focused on fitting new problems into the existing legal framework instead of growing the legal framework.

It feels like we need to do some refactoring.

I can’t program but for awhile I wrote for a living.

I was an English major in college and got hooked on Scrabble after reading Word Freak by Stefan Fatsis, a sportswriter from The Wall Street Journal. I’d always been into gambling and games with a luck factor like poker, backgammon, cribbage, etc., so that might have something to do with it. Always hated chess because the better player (nearly) always wins.

Scrabble’s an interesting game but unless you’re very talented at anagramming and have a good memory, it’s a bit of a slog to learn enough of the “rules” of the game (the words) to make it really fun. At my “peak”, I was studying 20 or so hours a week and wasn’t even making progress anymore, just maintaining the stuff I’d already learned.

It was a way to pass a few years of my life. I traveled around to tournaments, sometimes won enough to break even, met some interesting weirdos, and had a good enough time. But one day I just had enough and put it down and never picked it up again. Just stopped thinking it was fun, I guess.

Biggest thing I took away from it was really seeing how a few minutes (and eventually a few hours) of work a day could help you change how your brain works and how you see the world. I vividly remember one day at work I saw a guy whose name badge said Demetrius. I instantly thought “oh if you add a ‘u’ to his name and rearrange the letters it spells ‘deuteriums.’”

Now, when I think something is too hard or too big to accomplish, I think about that and just start chipping away.
> Unless the publisher pulls it

That's not true. I have a game that was pulled by the publisher (legal issues, don't know the details). But everyone who bought it can still download it and play it. Pulling it in this case just means no one can buy it anymore.

It was actually shocking to me when I found out that stuff I bought on other online stores wasn't available anymore for whatever reason. For this reason I still buy stuff on steam but I don't have enough trust to buy anything in another store.
Reasonable people can disagree but I do see what you mean - I thank you for your honest consideration of my opinion, a rare treat!

Subsequent statements and clarifications have made it clear that these donors were not subject to any action, this freaking government.. they just can't quite figure out how to make a clear statement about anything, despite seeming like they are constantly reading talking points - it drives me up the wall.
I despise crosswords and love Wordle. to me they are completely different kinds of games. While a huge vocabulary helps with wordle, it's not required, especially since the answer dictionary itself is mostly common words.
The xbox app has improved a lot, but even now its kind of garbage. It's been terrible, slow, buggy, bad explore interface, and just sort of bad for literally years. And instead of updating itself, it wants me to launch the microsoft store to update the xbox app, and then the microsoft store bugs me to update the "microsoft tips" app or the "Microsoft people" app or "MSN Weather" stuff I've never used or want on my computer. Oh you updated the xbox app but you didn't update the xbox identity provider, go back to microsoft store or otherwise you can't get into the game because apparently they didn't think to include xbox identity providing into the xbox app.

steam sits in my tray. it asks me to hit the update button when there's an update, and then it updates itself and I don't need to go somewhere or else or get hassled to find out why the heck there's an update to "Your Phone" app that I didn't know was on this computer and why microsoft thinks I should install it.

at least they've managed to get the windows store app itself to run a little better than the last few years. It was as guilty as any app of being a slow unstable POS.

steam just kinds of win by default by not being a massive pile of shit.
> She is “willing to work with all people regardless of race, creed, sexual orientation, and gender,” her lawyers told the court. “But she cannot create websites that promote messages contrary to her faith, such as messages that condone violence or promote sexual immorality, abortion, or same-sex marriage.”

It sounds like "willing to work with all people" is a lie then. If you are making a wedding website for a same-sex couple, what kind of message do you think it will contain?

Also fairly disgusting of her to put "messages like violence or same-sex marriage" in the same sentence, as if they are remotely comparable things.

If you run a wedding business and cannot accommodate all the different types of weddings recognized under the law, you are not capable of running a wedding business. "Oh, yes, I'm more than willing to work with handicapped people, but I can't promote ramps or accessible doorways, I just don't believe in them," would not fly to get out of an ADA lawsuit. The law says you must serve these groups equally, and you can't weasel your way out of it with "oh I just hate the sin, not the sinner!"

Also have to love the ridiculous pearl-clutching here:

> If left in place, the 10th Circuit’s decision will allow officials to compel Democratic speechwriters to plug Republican candidates and Muslim artists to create cartoon parodies of Allah.”

No, this decision would not compel a general-purpose artist to paint a work that they don't want to create. This person is lost in the sauce. They keep thinking it's about the content of the work, ("I don't create gay websites"), and not their behavior of refusing to work with the gay couple. Of course an artist or speechwriter would get in trouble today if they turned down people based just on them being part of a protected class. By the way, political party is not a protected class, so that argument fails twice.

These are the same type of people who feel their rights are being violated when they get kicked off Twitter because of their non-protected violent posts, and want to be able to simultaneously deny their own business services to actual protected classes. So square that how you will.

That seems backwards to how the actual customer perception worked out though. I very quickly noted that Origin prices were worse than Steam prices, and avoided it. If that was their intent, they forgot the storefront itself has a perceived value.

> I'm not sure callbacks alone can be equivalent to a resumable conditions system.

I agree, but I was not relying solely on callbacks. You do need some form of non-local return (such as exceptions or continuations) to implement the "resumable" aspect with a choice of restart points, in addition to the callbacks.

> You really need full coroutines in the general case.

I'm having a hard time imagining an error-handling scenario that would require the full power of coroutines—in particular the ability to jump back into the condition handler after a restart. In any case, most languages (even C, if you work at it) can express coroutines in some form or another.

> Anyway, what you are proposing is more of a partial alternative to exceptions, since the caller has to be aware of what's 'handled' in advance, whereas conditions may additionally unwind up to a predefined restart point or fail up to the caller similar to a non-handled exception.

Clearly there has been a breakdown in communication, as I though this was exactly what I described. The handler callbacks are "ambient environment" (i.e. per-thread variables with dynamically-scoped values) so there is no particular need for the caller to be aware of them unless it wishes to alter the handling of a particular condition. Restart points can be implemented by (ab)using unchecked exceptions for control flow to unwind the stack, or more cleanly via continuations if the language supports them.
> However, that doesn't mean that they should be able to discriminate in the professional services they provide.

Why not? It's a genuine question I'd like to get to the bottom of. I have no interest in discriminating against people professionally and wouldn't even be able to be friends with those who do, but that's personal. Why shouldn't someone be able to if that's what they want to do?
Have a look at OpenSnitch: https://github.com/evilsocket/opensnitch

Never used it myself, only remembering it from my thesis days about essentially the same topic. I see they made the jump away from Python to Go and I'm also somewhat surprised the project is not only still active, but appears to have matured nicely. Guess I'll have to check it out now!

This is ACLU's opinion on this issue[1]:

> Instances of institutions and individuals claiming a right to discriminate in the name of religion aren’t new. In the 1960s, we saw institutions object to laws requiring integration in restaurants because of sincerely held beliefs that God wanted the races to be separate. We saw religiously affiliated universities refuse to admit students who engaged in interracial dating. In those cases, we recognized that requiring integration was not about violating religious liberty; it was about ensuring fairness. It is no different today.

> Religious freedom in America means that we all have a right to our religious beliefs, but this does not give us the right to use our religion to discriminate against and impose those beliefs on others who do not share them.

This article[2] published in the Fordham Law Review journal also investigates the similarities between the use of religion to discriminate against interracial couples and the use of religion to discriminate against gay couples. It's a good read.

Here's a quote from the beginning, from a judge:

> In his 1965 opinion refusing to vacate the convictions of Richard and Mildred Loving, Judge Leon M. Bazile of Caroline County Circuit Court in Virginia included the following passage:

> "Almighty God created the races white, black, yellow, malay and red, and he placed them on separate continents. And but for the interference with his arrangement there would be no cause for such marriages. The fact that he separated the races shows that he did not intend for the races to mix"

If this finds widespread adoption in organizations, an entirely new set of minefields open up. The highly bullied children and the children of toxic parents will be somewhat more marginalized as they become comparatively less-happy adults and are kept from better opportunities. Pressure to appear happy will only be greater. You thought everyone on Facebook was happier than you?

I’d really like to see a bit more digging in there as to whether removing the happiness-sappers was more or less effective than supporting the happiness-supporters.

At the end of the day, “you’re just not happy enough” could become a valid rephrasing of “you’re just not a cultural fit”.

These are glass-half-empty perspectives, but there’s no principle that can be applied that can’t be misapplied.

What I ended up doing was crawling news from major news services and do aggregation myself. My algorithm was simple : cluster news that was reported by multple different services or multiple reports within 36 hours. By showing multiple news titles in a same box and order them by cluster size, I could just skipped those which isn't important at all.

Why would they do that though?
That's not necessarily true, it just comes down to the design. Apple seem to use a log-structured FTL which works great for performance and just requires a (very fast) log replay after a hard shutdown. You can see the syslog messages from the NVMe controller (via RTKit) talking about rebuilding the table when this happens.

Micron also talks about power loss resistant FTL design in their whitepaper, and although their older SSDs had caps, I think their recent ones mostly do away entirely.

https://www.micron.com/-/media/client/global/documents/produ...

This kind of stuff has been done in filesystems for ages (journaling etc.); there's no reason why FTLs can't be designed the same way.

Other question would be whether enforcement could be automated, perhaps via alexa attached to an aws service which could predict whether one would speak in such a manner, allowing for the prosecution of thought crimes

> If you run a wedding business and cannot accommodate all the different types of weddings recognized under the law, you are not capable of running a wedding business.

So, just to be clear: You're saying that businesses should effectively operate like public accommodations? Does that apply to everybody, including people you personally dislike?

Mind you, I actually favor that position, but I'd just like to get someone to actually admit to it publicly that all men are created equal and endowed with the same rights, not just those groups that happen to be politically favored during the current news cycle. I'm one of those weird people from the early days of the Internet that actually means it when he says he's for civil rights.

My wording was probably dramatic there, it's just I don't think a Microsoft subsidiary would lightly take the decision to forgo 20-30% (TIL it's tiered) of their revenue to a third party when they have capabilities to handle such services internally.

Seemingly deservedly so beyond network effects and user lock-in.

> If you run a wedding business and cannot accommodate all the different types of weddings recognized under the law, you are not capable of running a wedding business

Thats an interesting opinion, but it is not supported by court precedent.

The previous court precedent, was related to the bakery/gay wedding case, and it was ruled in favor of the bakery in a 7-2 decision. (So no, it was not just the conservative judges who voted in favor of it)

So on a factual ground, you are wrong, and religious protections are an established precedent that was discussed even specifically related to gay weddings.

That is an elegant solution which feels impossible to implement. How do you draw a line around what is "speech" and what is not? It could be argued that paying your taxes is speech - it is an action expressing support of your government.
This is a First Amendment case, which means it’s specifically about jobs that count as “speech”. It’s very unambiguously illegal for a plumber or an accountant to have a “no gay clients” policy.

That said — even within this case, that argument falls flat. The crux of the defense is “it’s not that I wouldn’t take on gay clients, I just won't make a wedding website for them.” Cool, so just don’t make wedding websites. There are plenty of other kinds of websites people will pay you to make. Leave the wedding sites to designers who won’t discriminate against gay people.
