Thank you for doing that, it's an important job. I learned spanish by taking an hour-long spanish class every weekday while I was in there.

If your class wasn't mandatory, then I'm sure you know that most people were just there probably to get extra time out of their cell or to break the monotony. And I assume most of them were complete assholes to you.

After I am financially independent, I want to try to get state/federal funding so that I can go back to prisons and teach programming AND partner with companies to have jobs/interviews lined up for release dates.

The worst part about being incarcerated isn't even always the time you serve, it's that our justice system means that you usually can never get a good job again, regardless of what your charge was (in my case it was one of the lowest class of felonies). It's like a ghost that haunts you forever.
Yes but to reach level of understanding you need a thought process, which most of the people lack.

For Rust projects, there really is no need for more than this. It might take a bit longer, but it’s simple and easy.
I always though CNN Bellingcat had a weird name. It makes more sense now.

I don't know how actively dangerous Times Square was but for it and 42nd Street "gritty" is a pretty good description. You see remnants of it at e.g. the Port Authority, aka one of the world's worst bus stations. Being there late at night was... interesting (as I once was). For a lot of people who knew NYC in that era, the "Disneyfication" isn't the worst thing that could have happened.
For education, they’re always thinking long term. If schools can afford this product and teach kids Swift then that’ll encourage them to join the developer ecosystem later on. It doesn’t have to be a “pro” product.

You respond proportionately and appropriately. You'd ask them to move their tank, then failing that maybe fire on it with conventional arms etc.

There isn't much response presently from NATO because Ukraine isn't part of it.
A huge Duolingo fan and I play every day, but I wonder whether it's actually helping me to learn anything. I've been using it to study mandarin characters for the 3rd year now, but when I actually see Chinese text there's barely anything I recognize.

Admittedly, I spend maybe 5-15 minutes per day on average and most of that I do in a rush, but the expectation still sounds fair -- reading would be relatively passive knowledge too.
“Whataboutism” is a really stupid name for the Socratic method.
This should be possible - Hellwig Geisse (forgot to mention his project, sorry - https://github.com/hgeisse/THM-Oberon) is working on an Oberon port to the Terasic DE2-115 FPGA port, which has an Altera FPGA like the MiSTer. The basis of the MiSTer is a Terasic DE10 Nano FPGA board, which has a more recent Cyclone V FPGA (the DE2-115 has a Cyclone II).

The MiST (MiSTer's predecessor, https://github.com/mist-devel) would also be a nice platform.

No, it isn't. The comment we're replying to here is about someone adding a message to their code repo that's shown to Russian viewers. Are you saying that if people don't do this, they support the Russian invasion? It seems pretty obvious when you get specific. It's simpleminded to divide people into two groups and say that anyone who doesn't agree with a _particular action_ is the enemy.
Troops entered kyiv, some 19 hours after you made your statement.
A lot of discussion on this last time it came up:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22341983
Yeah except the difference is that loads of innocent people were being raped and murdered and ethnically cleansed in Kosovo whereas Russia made their reasons for this invasion quite clear Monday and it’s a desire to reconstitute the Russian Empire.

It’s fine to have a principle of non-intervention but the situations are not really comparable outside of both being interventions. The Iraq War is a better comparison, and the US should have been sanctioned for it.
Subvertising MANUAL What you need and how to do it (2016) [pdf]
> This is to protect (somewhat) against lookalikes.

Right. Fits with my understanding. Basically they (and others -- HP/LG) use these patent classes to protect aspects of technical designs in the way that Coca Cola used design patents to protect their classic bottle shape.

So possibly not an actual design patent but something with the same narrow scope.

I guess it's an open question as to whether they should be allowed, but they surely seem largely to be easy to avoid in good faith.
> If China decided to ally with Russia - or help them get around the sanction - it would decimate China's economy as well:

The US and EU also heavily depend on China. Russia is not thrown out of SWIFT for a full-on war; I highly doubt that there will be sanctions to a more important trade partner that massively hurt the EU and US themselves for merely supporting Russia.
This is not responding at the moment. Hopefully not because of me.
You linked to the charter of what is disallowed, not what is a right.

I’ll concede I don’t know the Netherlands banking regulations so perhaps you do have a right to send electronic wires but what you linked doesn’t outline that.

In the US the cfpb regulates consumer rights when sending international transfers. The rights include disclosures about fees and fx and processes for adjudication of disputes but you do not have a right to send a wire.
Ukraine is sovereign European country, not Russian backyard.
It makes sense. Apple is always looking to create the most minimalist computers possible. What could be more minimalist than a keyboard that plugs into a monitor via USB-C?

This could easily be a return to a $500 entry level computer for Apple. Will they do it? Who knows. It might not have the margins or volume they are looking for, but it also could a great entry point to introduce people to the Mac.
Holy shit I didn't know that. Those guards belong in jail themselves, what they did is torture. Prison exists to remove from society people who are incompatible with it, nothing more and even that must be constantly questioned and re-evaluated. Nobody deserves to have their dignity stripped away like that.
I was on computers a lot as a kid and sort of taught myself programming (very poorly) in my early years.

When I caught this charge, I had just turned 18. It really ruined my life.

Currently, I work in tech. For a very long time I was barely making ends meet, working in a fast food restaurant for minimum wage while trying to interview to get a developer job.

I went through 8 interview processes, and received offers from all but one. Each one of them was rescinded when HR learned that I had a felony, as a matter of company policy.

It was really heartbreaking and a lot of times, it made me want to give up on life and just stop trying. I kept interviewing and going to events/networking, and eventually found a very low-paying job at a local place and sort of slowly worked my way back up from there.

If anyone here has some degree of power at a company and wants to make a difference in the world, convince your company to hire felons with non-violent/non-finance related offenses.

I was aware of the Oberon programming language, which is the successor of Modula-2, which is itself the successor of Pascal (all invented by Niklaus Wirth), but it took me a few minutes to remember that there was also an OS and computer system called Oberon. However in a university setting it makes perfect sense to have a complete "package" of hardware, OS and programming language which you can design and understand "from the ground up".
You did make something useful. Don't feel bad about the title here. It's not like you're selling this as a rewrite of something that already exists with the only difference being that it's Rust. (And certainly not like the worse case of that where the selling point is "rewritten in Rust" but it actually has fewer features or is less user friendly than the original)
Why the West is reluctant to deny Russian banks access to SWIFT
I mean I'm not sure either. I don't think anybody is really sure. Now, NATO has deployed thousands of troops to the Baltic states, the US has deployed elements of the 82nd Airborne to Europe. Estonia is tweeting that it will do more to supply munitions to Ukrainian forces. Sweden said they're escalating military intervention. So now instead of having very few troops on his border, Putin has more than he's had in decades. The security angle is complete bullshit.

I agree that Russia isn't "dependent" on the west. Again going back to my OP I assert that this is a non-factor for Putin as he seeks to create a Russian-lead Slavic ethnostate in Ukraine, Russia, Belarus, Baltics, and more. Ukraine is a key piece not for security reasons - again Russia has 6,000 nuclear weapons and if you feel insecure than you are actually irrational - but because of the extensive amounts of resources which he'll need to feed the Russian people and create industry. Russia has all the resources it needs, they won't have iPhones but they'll build rockets and cars and stuff like that.
I would complain just as much if the USA decides to invade Cuba or Mexico. I also think that Cuba or Mexico should be free to join a military alliance with Russia.

I'm not sure what your point is.

It makes sense to opt into errexit for select blocks/sections in scripts and under certain circumstances, but having it default-on is a recipe for quite a bit of head-scratching in the future.
I managed to get from A1.2 (started there from having a few holidays in France, having listened to a Michel Thomas audiobook once) to B2.4 in two years before moving to France.

The InnerFrench podcast helped a lot - I had french courses twice a week, 2 hours each, and the podcast kept french in my mind on weekends/days off.

That being said, after moving here it still took 3-4 months to get comfortable with just how bloody fast they speak French in real life.
Handling multiple identical files is certainly desirable - but this is not the "core" compression algo. Its a cute optimization trick...

Ya sorry. IBAN is what is used for SEPA payments. You don't have the same with swift since system and code are named (again) swift.

I never used IBAN outside of Europe (actually Dubai if I'm not wrong used that too) so I'm not sure how international that is
OK what seems more plausible: YT is banning people simply for watching a live stream that they are hosting, or that these reports are mistaken or part of a disinformation campaign by a country known for them.
We’ll this is just massively embarrassing for YouTube. The Reddit thread will get picked up by National media. YouTube will say the reporting was misuse of their terms and was a cyberattack from state level actors implying their reporting algo isn’t actually at fault. They will mention that the automated algo protects children and at risk people. They will then reinstate the accounts and say they are sorry for the temporary inconvenience and pleased that they could respond so swiftly. And the algos won’t change, not one bit. And there will still be no human oversite of these sorts of bans.

Stephen Marz' blog article series about writing an OS for RISC-V in Rust is also worth mentioning: https://osblog.stephenmarz.com
This is my take as well. They then put pressure on their government to take steps that would reverse this.

Not an ideal situation for anyone.
I've been following the development of a Rust real-time OS for a while, and just got a RISC-V Longan Nano to run it on. It rare to cram so many interesting things to learn into a single side project.
And the problem is most of these "ideas" people have no skin in the game. Their own bonus or career doesnt depend on the idea, which is why they are so excited about pushing it onto others
Failure doesn’t mean the world should stop trying. When the world stops trying, we (humanity) have truly lost. I think most people understand the extreme difficulty of the current situation, and that hands are frustratingly tied. Giving up should not be an option, though.

In the heat and tragedy of the current situation, I find this comment incredibly distasteful.
A couple of things to note:

1. Snowden is a dissident wrt the US government, not the Russian one. He doesn't have an obligation to criticize Russia (neither does he have an obligation to criticize the US, but that comes with the territory).

2. He has self preservation to consider too. To him Russia is a relatively safe haven. Why would he endanger that? Sure, this limits his freedom of expression, but that's a relatively small personal compromise in order to ensure you're still alive and not in some supermax.
This looks great!

One tip though, there's a green button looking thing for each lesson, but when you click it it doesn't take you anywhere. I had to figure out that the text heading itself is clickable. Why not make the image, the button, the text body and everything clickable?
Russians have access to the broader Internet. North Koreans and most Iranians don't.

Russians have become accustomed to developed Western standards of living. North Koreans and most Iranians haven't.

And in line with Solzhenitsyn... Putin isn't a Grand Ayatollah or a flawless all-benevolent Juche godhead. Iran and North Korea still have something they can take away from their people.

Nobody chooses economic sanctions over armed conflict out of bloodlust.

Have a good day.
Also, there are other pieces of paper you can get before two years from now. I’d bet you already know enough to pass the CompTIA A+ cert. check out the various certifications and consider sitting for them. They give you a readout of how you did on all the topics at the end regardless of pass/fail. This just might substitute for that college requirement. At worst, you’ll have more employment opportunities.

I quickly figured out they were mostly there to break the monotony. I threw out the curriculum and did basic graph theory and some logic stuff. I only had one run in with someone. The prisoners treated me decently. I gave them all passing grades and just wanted them to get out of the experience whatever they wanted to get out of it.
That is exactly why the situation is so dangerous. If there is even a hint that the US and the whole of NATO will not come in strong, then yes there is the possibility that he could go further.

There is another very dangerous scenario that has not been considered. A Russian inspired coup in one of the existing NATO countries with a not so small large Russian speaking population. That government then saying they want to leave NATO.

On another side, it's not even mentioned that in the middle of the war action in Ukraine, nobody seems to have noticed Putin just annexed another country, Byelorussia. The Russian troops were supposed to leave at the end of their 3 week long exercises, but they are now leaving...never.
Honestly where could he go? I suspect he's not there because he's a Russian apologist.
Uhuh, isn't any different from calling Ukraine fiction, that it basically never existed, everyone is neonazi. Annexing Crimea, East of country and then attacking under deluaion claims.
I came across the Michel Thomas Method[0] on some comments here some time ago, and I've been thoroughly enjoying it!

When I first started learning French I took a "school" approach to it, get a dedicated notebook, buy books, buy cards to make my own flash cards, schedule 1 hour a day... needless to day that I failed, not just that but I hated it all!

So I decided to make it fun (the way I learn programming or other things that I enjoy) and the Michel Thomas was super fun for me :-) It my motivation to mow the lawn since mowing the lawn is my french listening time.

The other day I got a random marketing email with some french in it trying to be fancy, and I was so happy when I could understand everything it said before having to read the english translation!

I'm not affiliated with them in any way, I just really enjoy his approach to teaching languages

Likely outcome yes, good idea no.

Sadly the Middle East culture and religion is incompatible with the one in Europe.

So if this scenario should play out, we will see middle east conditions with unrest everywhere.

Better to let the migration go to compatible countries such as Turkey.
Advice for people trying to learn a language:

1. Focus on learning the accent and intonation before you focus on learning vocabulary
2. Speaking to a native speaker daily will bring far more proficiency than studying will

No, his past actions were a great service to the world.

At the same time, his current behaviour means I no longer find him to be a meaningful source of commentary. He called Trudeau "tyrannical and obscene" -- no followup comment when, days later, Trudeau revoked the Emergencies Act. He mocked the world for trusting US intelligence that Russia was going to invade Ukraine -- no followup comment when Russia then committed a full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

Again, what he did in the past: tremendous service. What he seems capable of doing today: not useful to me.
May I ask how did you go about writing it?
This is torture. Period.
Very true. The choice of a language isn't just driven by how appealing it is to oneself, but also how appealing it is to the broader population of developers. If you use a language that no one wants to work with then you're going to have a tough time getting people to want to contribute. You also end up limited on the third-party libraries that are available if you pick a language that isn't popular.
So is he going to fix the Russia problem like he fixed the dao bug?
The author criticizes the way we teach languages in schools but I’m not sure you can do much better when most of the class is only there because they have to be there. Frankly, I think it’s remarkable how well schools do.
