It's probably worth noting that these are livestreams which have chat enabled. You are automatically added as a participant, and show up on the participant list, which anyone can see. I suspect watching, say, the WaPo livestream is fine because they have disabled chat and comments. If you must go to one of these livestreams, for some reason, check to see if chat is enabled, and if so, probably avoid it until Youtube figures out how to deal with this.
> Even in pre-feudal societies there was only so much need for "warriors".

No the user you've replied to, but it's not "either or" that you (might) imply. I would also like to emphasize, pre-Feudal society was as it was due to pre-Fedual technology. The AR-15 and Glock 19 aren't going to disappear with the COVID-23 epidemic or the nuclear flash.

One can learn basic marksmanship fairly well at a local shooting range, but something like Close-Quarters Battle or other necessary-but-uncommon (to civilians) training will require some amount of professional training. How effectively can you clear a room with a pistol or rifle (solo, partnered)? Are you aware of the effects of glass (home, auto) on a round?

Best not to learn these things the hard way.

Let us not forgot, in the original iteration of the American Republic, we (able-bodied men, at least) were all the militia. Even in this ideal "community sticks together" outcome in a SHTF world, you need to have some competencies in shooting.

To contrast, one can more casually learn primitive cooking or home gardening... at home. I, personally, practice martial arts... that's the gist of my daily fitness training.

Though I very much agree, the medical training is one you're going to want to go to a professional for and should not be forgotten amongst the High-Speed Low-Drag oper9r culture that co-travels in survivalist circles.

> If you tell us that it's ok to start acting like empires

Ignoring the context of sending troops into war is a "shitty" move, as is characterising this kind of behaviour as being of "European people" - there have been lots of non-European empires, and colonial powers where administrated by European monarchs, not European democracies (i.e. the people).

Fighting an invading empire is not building one. These semantic games are a slippery-slope argument - structures such as NATO are pretty explicit means (in theory at least) to defending against aggression without endorsing aggression.
Again, these characterisations are easy. They are made on both sides. I can construct a similar line about the FBI incitement, casually throwing in disputed or hard-to-verify facts.

I'd pick you up on "lying about it" - I consider the FBI to be heavily politically active, esp in the Trump/Comey times, so describing them as "law enforcement" in these situations is misleading.

I added detail to my previous comment, but I don't really trust the outcome of an incitement where the FBI held all the cards - you get the same thing when people accept one-sided plea deals from the police - "they even admitted they did it".

There's a whole lot of context around this. For example, you can characterise the FBI as simply "Law enforcement", but you could characterise the DOJ-under-Barr the same. If you have reason to doubt/discredit the DOJ, them you should equally allow for the same wrt the FBI-under-Comey.

Reading and conversing are really almost like two different skills.

A lot of learning how to speak a language is ear-training. With French, I started much more with speaking so now I can make out a lot of what people say. But, the big challenge with French is that, like in English, native speakers "break" the rules or use subtle turns of phrasing that are very culturally specific, usually they're collocations that don't exactly translate (but luckily for English they actually commonly do thanks to the Norman mixing in English).

It gets even more complicated when French has different formal and casual registers that are much more distinct than in English. So when you're reading Le Monde, or Flaubert, you're getting the literary, fancy, French. Most people speak in a much more argot mixed way.

Now add onto that different regional dialects like Quebecois (really really fast, distinct, french from them), Belgian, Swiss, different parts of France, etc...and it's even more difficult. (Personally I find Parisian French, ou francais standard to be the easiest to understand).

The best solution is just immersion. And constant use. Language is used, and use is the best method for improvement. You can't really think of it like a logical code. It's more like behavior for communicating. You have to learn the right rules in the language game for things to "make sense".
Using that argument, would the US also be considered "an aggressor"?

1) Too much intro material - The explanation of what a root is was too long. By the time I got to the start of the derivation, my attention span was already running out, due to:
2) Too much tedious algebra - I felt annoyed that I needed to do a bunch of basic arithmetic to advance to the next section.
3) Complicated derivation - Like another commenter mentioned, I think the completing the square method would have been shorter and easier than this method.

Project Oberon is awesome!

I found the Project Oberon book in SFSU library and read it cover to cover. Such a tight, elegant system. Pretty much complete: Oberon OS includes compiler for Oberon language!

Language was self-hosted (compiler written in itself) and Prof. Wirth had a heuristic: no feature could be added to the lang/compiler if it made compiling the compiler slower.

There are several emulators, in C, JS, Java, and Python, and there's Verilog so you can burn to FPGA and make a real workstation. People have.

The system has two kinds of OOP. There is the C++/Java/Python/etc. kind where you basically add methods to a record type, and there is the old school Smalltalk message-passing kind, where elements of the OS communicate through an extendable message bus.

The GUI system, especially with the "Gadgets" subsystem, is mind-blowing. It would take too long to go over it at the moment, but there are features there that still haven't made it into mainstream GUI systems. If I get a minute later today I'll come back and add a note detailing some of the awesome if someone else hasn't already filled in the picture.

Who said anything about it being unfounded. That was quite obviously not the point.

The point was: big tech is exclusively run by people that dislike the perceived Trump | Putin axis, and there's nothing to debate about it frankly, it's something beyond overwhelmingly the case.

I stated no position on whether I thought that was good or bad.

There was no problem with what I said in fact. I never declared cause and effect (order to why such was the case), that'd be a pointless distraction from the core (and would merely prompt endless opinion thrashing based on partisan beliefs on this forum, or most any forum these days). I simply stated the part that they're quite obviously anti-Putin, and they are. Why for the purposes of the thread doesn't matter. Thus it's more interesting that they'd be blocking pro-Ukraine content and most likely indicates it's not their preference and is an automation problem that they'll have to manually act against.
This is an example of good (well, ok) general advice, which absolutely does not apply to this specific instance.

As general advice it's only ok, because a) the details of served HTML can change a great deal and b) some APIs might have this problem, some are unlikely to. Wikipedia is an extreme example of the latter.

Why was Postgres forked?

I don't want this to come across as negative towards Postgres (or discouraging toward Alexander) but given that these fixes aren't upstream in Postgres - developed by a known/respected contributor, is this indicative to some type of politics / infighting happening within the Postgres community on the architectural direction of their (amazing) database?

I see some comments in this thread touch a little on this topic but why does this need to wait 2-3 release cycles before it's upstreamed to Postgres? That's going to be roughly 4 years from now.

When things like reading a headline "UNICEF Chief: Taliban Committed to Let Girls Back to School" or the recent history of progress for women in Saudi Arabia is women being allowed to drive... it's not extremist propaganda to say that importing populations from the middle east will have huge cultural implications for western nations.

It is inappropriate to apply the generalization to one person, because there is much diversity among people. When you talk about a population though, it isn't propaganda to say that there are huge cultural problems with views which are fundamentally problematic if you try to import sizable portions into a modern western country.

One of the reasons you get strong right-wing reactionaries is people who are trying to be progressive turning a blind eye to the actual cultural issues instead of acknowledging and trying to mitigate and minimize them.

There are certainly lovely people from the middle east, I have had the pleasure of knowing a few who were from or had roots in that part of the world. There is a basic difference between (wrongly) saying "this is where you're from and what you look like so you must be like this" and (rightly) "taking in a million refugees from here will have these sorts of problems".

The strangest thing about .NET I think was the Windows Communication Framework which was ahead of its time in many ways but was hobbled by numerous choices that left it out of the mainstream.

A real long time ago (I think 2006) I was working on a web site product line that sold alcohol online. This is not fundamentally problematic (the delivery driver cards the recipient of the package) but you have to attend to details such as tax rates in various jurisdictions so we were shopping for APIs that would give us that information.

One vendor had an API that was pretty good but was based on SOAP and after two days of work I think I had solved the problem of making authenticated requests from PHP but there was still something broken, at that point we switched to a competitor that was using simpler technology and it working in less than 30 minutes.

I'd contrast that to the use of Jackson in Java backends where Jackson automatically generates a mapping between JSON and Java objects that "just works" most of the time and often you end up spending very little time thinking about serialization or being compatible with any popular clients. I'm sure ASP.NET has caught up, but I still think ASP.NET MVC would be overkill for the average backend for a React-like app. I have to admit that Sinatra-style JAXB in Java is so easy for that purpose.

Which Google Play does not, happily serving you all the "known trackers". F-Droid is strictly superior on this front.

> You still have to trust the app developer

I don't have to trust the developer as much because I don't have to take their word for it that the compiled app matches the public source.

> and you'd be much better off trusting the strong guarantees provided by the Android app sandbox anyway

False dichotomy. I still have the sandbox with F-Droid. This is chaff.

> Play App Signing is mentioned in the article.

...Okay? What a non-sequitur. Signing is completely off-topic to the fact that Play Services is spyware (notwithstanding your assertion that it isn't). Unlike F-Droid. That's a huge difference.

It's like saying "when meeting a sketchy stranger, don't bring a friend along or meet in a public place because now you have to trust the friend as well, and also the friend might not be strong enough to overpower the stranger anyway.

> they would quit

Most prisons exist in places that are economically depressed with few if any other jobs. In some cases, the entire existence of a town revolves around the prison. Quitting is hardly an option when it’s the only real option for putting food on your table and a shelter over your head.
I agree that it wouldn't be the best PR but it would be a relatively good way to weaken them.

In any case, it seems relatively clear that NATO won't help them and they don't really have allies. So acting as the victim is not providing any benefits for them.

It seems Ukrainians don't have a lot of leverage in this war otherwise and their prospects are currently not so bright.

So that would be to put in balance with the risk of annexation to Russia and de facto suppression of their democracy.
Imagine your government doing something you don’t like and the international response being to cut your internet connection, destroying your financial security and jeopardize the supply chains allowing you to get food every day.
Does that sound like the proper balanced response to the actions of your government?

But, more importantly, you learn to use and maintain that gear to keep you hydrated, fed and warm. Beyond that it's a matter of knowing where to collect water and having or finding enough calories.
