Sorry but what?

* It looks like there won't be a Ukrainian government to speak of in a few days.

* Manipulative behaviour has been identified on twitter and Facebook almost every day for the last few years, and it hasn't really led to much anything. The Ukrainian government can't do anything about that, if the independent banana republics of FAANG don't decide to act, nothing is gonna change.

* Likewise for patreon. It's a private Company and thus sadly, regrettably, out of reach of public scrutiny or regulation. Thoughts and prayers are free and abundant though! Besides, what is the Ukrainian government gonna do with money right now? I bet tanks and air defense systems have long lead times these days, chip shortage and all.

Sorry for the overboarding sarkasm... I guess. But these are my points.

Edit:

Collecting downvotes for that. Not surprised, but I'm not seeing any counterpoints, really. It's okay if you just need a valve to let off your frustration, have at it, but what the parent suggested seems.... pointless, sorry to be blank.
I mean, this sort of soft influence might be useful, but we ("the west") have been proving, on an ongoing basis, for multiple years now, that corporate decisions shall not and will not be questioned by our governments, that essentially an american-based platform has unbridled control over what they want to do, and that if they don't care about trolls and bots and harassment and nationalism andandand then there's not much "we" (read: the government, first of all the US government) can^Wwill do. What is the ukraininan government gonna do with more intel on russian propaganda? What's the actionable on that? Start a war with twitter?

As for the first point. Yeah... I don't see the mechanism by which any of this will slow down the physical process of soldiers marching on Kyiv. No NATO state will enter into this conflict, Putin has been pretty openly threatening with nuclear annihilation. And I would doubt that the russian soldiers will be hanging out on twitter enough to really get distracted by some well thought-through anti-propaganda measures.
If we draw on human comparisons, it's generally agreed that more deaths are worse than fewer, and I posit that the weight of a person doesn't factor into that calculus. If we assume that a given quantity of meat will be produced and that animal deaths are undesirable for analogous reasons to human deaths then it's perfectly natural to attempt to minimize deaths per pound.
Just like nobody would even talk about Nord Stream 1, or EU didn't want to cancel Swift, and EU leader is literally talking about a 'pretty lit up building' in 'support of Ukraine' - while Ukraine is begging for weapons ...

I'm wary that this is a little too late.

If you want to help, call your Senator and demand that they supply Ukraine with as many Javelins and Stingers as they can, unlimited small arms, equipment and medical supplies, naval defence missiles, mobile surface to air missiles with radars, drone and possibly some cruise missiles.

And then for the US to scuttle a few Russian ships and blockade all of their ports.

And then to sabotage their infra, their internet, their pipelines, railroads and electricity.

Because that would actually be useful.

The events unfolding right now are as big as 9/11 and we will witness similar tensions over Taiwan. After the loss of Hong Kong and 'cutting losses' in Afghanistan - and a global pandemic - it's vey bad for the world.

I'm wary that reading headlines on seems a whole lot less meaningful than it did a few days ago.

Folks, I remember the tail end of the Cold War as a kid and it was not a happy time.

I remember when the Berlin Wall came down and the USSR collapsed it was like a giant global fear lifted from everything. We used to make movies and TV shows all the time about global nuclear annihilation.

I believe that's why maybe GenX and Boomers are less afraid of 'Climate Change' - because it's something we can and will eventually conquor - we've been there before.

But living with an intransigent Russia who is hinting and 'things which have never been seen' (aka some kind of nukes) while invading a country - and having the West mostly twiddle their thumbs and watch, is ominous for what it means in the future.

We could see another few generations of really existential angst, where, once it sets into everyone's psyche's, we kind of 'forget' what normal peace feels like.

I don't think hacking is the thing at this point.
Why were you okay with them conquering Czechoslovakia and Austria? Wouldn't it have been cheaper to stop them then?

The compiler generates and serves its own website with no dependencies.

For personal projects (including NN-512) I use Mercurial for version control, not git. But in any case I don't want the compiler (or the website it generates) to depend on git or any other version control software.
If it can be proved that it really would be just one bad day, e.g. if the animals don't figure out that their friends are disappearing one by one and the same is about to happen to them any day.

Clearly the burden of proof is not on the animals.
Unfortunately while valid logical formulas have finite deductions, proving that a formula is not valid (or equivalently that some formula is satisfiable) is Turing complete and thus impossible. So the set of valid first order formulae is recursively enumerable.

However, if you limit your scope to finite sets bounded by some size, the problem is merely NP-complete. Given a program, you can construct a formula which is satisfiable iff the program halts (with said formula being polynomial in size with respect to the size of the program).
Linux definitely has testing. Some helpful person added our repo base to the kernel-test-robot list, and now I regularly get e-mails when something I'm working on in some random WIP branch broke the build on some other architecture (often in COMPILE_TEST mode), or some other random driver. Didn't even have to do anything myself. It's great for avoiding "this broke the build on $obscure_config" issues.
I downvoted this comment because I think you’re being extremely condescending towards people who don’t like working from home.

I go into the office explicitly because I have a family. It’s hard to work from my house now that my wife and I have a baby. We have two bedrooms so now my workspace is in the living room and working while there is a screaming baby in the background is not great for concentrating.

How is this different though? Why do you assume this power hungry maniac dictator will want to stop at any point voluntarily more than the previous one did?

Also, HN doesn't like long discussions with its irritating "commenting too fast" filter, so I'll answer the comment below - good point about Czechoslovakia and Austria. That already could be seen as a sign of what's to come, but the more it escalated, the stronger it should have been apparent.

You’re joking about the lack of a title to tell you the name of the app, but not knowing which window has focus (thanks to titlebar shading) is a real problem. Microsoft completely disabled the coloring of the active window in Windows 10, then caved and re-added it as an off-by-default option. I can’t live without it on.

It's both. There is a PG fork which contains some patches to increase extensibility to certain APIs and then an extension developed against that fork.

The idea would be to upstream the fork I would imagine but continue development of the engine out of tree similar to Citus, Timescale, etc.
The kernel doesn't care about third parties though, that's why the kernel API/ABI is not stable. This is one big advantage to doing it that way: sure, you need to have a consistent migration plan in flight to make sure you don't break mainline in the process, but you can immediately remove the old way without having to care about third parties, once you're done.
Leetcode it is then.

Feature wise I like postgresql.

Operationally? Mysql. I pick MySQL 8 whenever I can because over the lifetime of a project it's easier.

Pragmatically I'm coming to the uncomfortable (as a Foss advocate) idea that Microsoft SQL Server is a good choice and worth paying for. Features and relative ease of use.

Maybe (I would argue feeding more people is better), but the GP is referring to pain, not death. Cows can be killed pretty quickly - perhaps not painlessly but pretty close to it. Lobsters not so much.
Header files are a historical legacy from when C was developed. Because machines were small compilers/languages were designed to do single pass compilation on modules which were then linked.

Friends of mine who are actual CS majors say with C it's not fixable without changes to the language. With Java or C# the compiler can do a pass and extract the object definitions. But because of ambiguous syntax and majorly because of the preprocessor it's not possible with C as it stands.
ah, thanks for link. From this it seems like verification builds require the same amount of work as the original -- you can't save work by delegating to untrusted CI.
Linux already uses a lot of C99 features that were GNU extensions before C99, like designated initializers. So in practice, Linux is already C99, and hasn't been buildable on strict C89 compilers in a long time.
The line is an axis of vertical symmetry in a 2-d context (circle); compare with ⊖, which shows an axis of horizontal symmetry. When applied to a matrix, ⌽ reverses rows and ⊖ reverses columns; the elements are mirrored around the pictured axis of symmetry. (In general, when applied to a high-rank array, ⊖ reverses the first axis of its argument, and ⌽ reverses the last.)
Defending an ally from an enemy is not something the US government punishes people for. If you want to help the people of Ukraine then #standwithukraine.
I wouldn’t use the word desperate. This campaign seems to have been planned out over a decade or more and carefully timed if you ask me. Observe how the new German leadership can’t bring itself to block SWIFT access in winter after recently turning off nuclear power capacity, because it will cause an energy crisis. That isn’t a coincidence. Neither I think is that all this happened while it is Russia’s turn chairing the UN security council.

The fact is that democratic countries with leaders elected yesterday are at a disadvantage to these perpetual dictators with low accountability and strong convictions.

Putin is a snake. I would say he’s the most dangerous man in the world. He absolutely cannot be trusted, and his agenda really does involve damaging and weakening other sovereign nations seemingly for the sake of it.
A few years ago, I went digging through studies and journals to answer this question. The answer I came to was avocado oil, EVOO and refined olive oil for when you desire a higher smoke point than EVOO.

EVOO, contrary to intuition, is apparently one of the better oils to use for long periods of pan and deep frying. The impurities lower the rate of oxidation of the oil and the formation of volatile organic compounds.
You're not comparing humans to humans. You're comparing cows to (say) chickens. The underlying assumption then is that chickens and cows share the same experience of pain. That's not proven, seems unlikely to be the case, and is, in any case, currently unmeasurable.
The US or Canada or Australia will be more than able to cover the Russian share by switching out crops if Wheat is more profitable given any shortages.

Please help to remove a separatist outrage symbolic

https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B0173GKOM2/ref=ox_sc_act_ti...

The item represents a pseudo-flag with a separatist connotation and outrages the Flag of Ukraine. Namely: the russian coat of arms on the National Flag of Ukraine with a provoking "Odesa Republic" (Одесская Республика) и "Novorossia" ("Новороссия") or "New Russia" labels.

This is NOT acceptable and the only usage of the item is separatism agitation, the outrage of the Ukrainian national symbols.

I have. Extremely intelligent might be a stretch, but a little. Certainly curious, emotional and social. Id rate them at the level of cats, dogs and pigs. My cat is dumb as fuck, no way she could outsmart a cow.
I think this is the point you're making, but this isn't "perceiving sentience" (whatever that means), it's literally just projects your thoughts and emotions onto an anthropomorphized version of whatever animal you're looking at. Which is the same thing the GP was/is doing, but they haven't "matured" enough cognitively to realize it yet.

Note that SQL-standard bodies are supported as of 14 [1]:

Allow SQL-language functions and procedures to use SQL-standard function bodies (Peter Eisentraut)

Previously only string-literal function bodies were supported. When writing a function or procedure in SQL-standard syntax, the body is parsed immediately and stored as a parse tree. This allows better tracking of function dependencies, and can have security benefits.

Not that I would ever apply my considerable talents to this purpose, but seriously, who from the west would ever go to Russia in the next few years without family ties causing one to do so. I don’t think that is a tangible consequence for most of us capable of waging a cyber security attack in a nation state.
> If you think Putin's next stop after Ukraine might be another country, then another, until he's planning his victory celebration in Paris,

Well, do you think that? My question was for you but it's fair I answer yours.

> you may want to stop him early.

What "you" is that? The people of those countries that would be invaded along the way?

If I thought that and was a person from one of those other countries, I would probably think it's preferable to build defenses of my country rather than engage in expeditionary warfare in the east near Russian supply lines and air space. Difficult question though I'm certainly no military strategist.

On the first question, I do not think Putin's next stop is likely to be that or possibly even the regions of Ukraine where there are fewer Russians/less pro-Russian support. But such things should always be considered and I'm no military or geopolitical analyst. What I can see is that from the amount of money western european states spend on their defenses they do not consider such a risk likely either, and they do employ many such strategists. So as a person not from one of those countries I certainly wouldn't support my country getting involved in military action in the region first.
Linux has a checkpatch.pl. If it doesn't already test for Unicode identifiers, it would be trivial to add that. This is a non-issue. You don't ban a new version of a language just because it allows some undesirable things; it's trivial to ban those things specifically, either with scripting or specific compiler option overrides.

Heck, Linux already uses GCC plug-ins to implement some fancier security stuff; it is silly to think they can't handle forbidding Unicode identifiers.

They know their Russian counterparts are going to see the announcement so I'm thinking it's a subtle dig and veiled threat to remind them it can get way worse.
What exactly are you missing? With screen sharing its the same thing if not easier than looking back and forth at two laptop screens parked next to eachother. If its about those serendipitous questions, you could sit on a zoom call with your team all hard at work for the entire day and just don't say anything until someone has a question about something. It would function exactly the same as just sitting around some office, only better because zoom breakout rooms for more specific discussions with a few people are orders of magnitude easier than finding a free conference room for a impromptu work meeting in my experience.
I can relate. This was pre-pandemic but I was a mentor of a junior who I quickly identified as someone who was struggling. To compensate I spent a lot of time with them, meeting multiple times per week. Looking back after two years I can't honestly say I saw any improvement and think I just wasted all that time. I used to hear about companies that require junior devs to reach a certain level within 2 years or they're let go and think that was harsh. Now I think it's necessary. If someone hasn't shown improvement in 2 years, it's highly unlikely they'll change. I think I also learned the lesson that if you need to spend time on people, spend it on the people who are worth spending it on.
US folks: Call your congressional representatives and demand they back harsh sanctions against Russian oil/gas immediately. Perhaps even a full embargo until aggression is stopped. That is the _only_ leverage the US has against Russia, and as of yet the US has steadfastly refused to do anything that would interrupt the flow or price of oil to itself.
No. Because our brains would never have evolved to their current state without meat, and the early animal meat was probably scavenged not hunted. At least wait until agriculture developed to start the ethical debate.

I never said I didn’t care about the suffering of other people. I said I don’t care about Ukraine.

I’ve read the CIA world fact book entry on it; I’ve listened to a lot of the rhetoric, and I just fail to see any interest there compelling enough to make me support war with Russia.

If “suffering” is the bar for involvement, why didn’t we do anything about Rwanda?

Why is it unethical for me not to support involvement in yet another war, when I’ve been lectured for the last two decades about how bad it is for my country to go to war. Seems like cherry picking.

The American public is tired of wars and the USA is not in financial shape to begin a multi trillion dollar war, especially if there is no compelling national interest. If Europe cares, let them fight the war.

If Putin attacks a NATO country then we should fulfill our treaty obligations.

Other than that, we can’t fix all the problems in the world.

Besides, we are extremely likely to end up in a war with China when they invade Taiwan; we do have a national interest there (semiconductor fabrication) and we can’t afford to be bogged down in Ukraine with that looming.
Man, the HN crowd is tough. Folks here don't seem to like anything other than Win95 UI.

I personally found the UI to be very slick and pretty. It seems very similar to Win11 and looks rather pretty. Would love to give it a try.
Don’t expect people who show up to include you in conversations, and we’re fine.

Really. I have no problem with people executing tasks from wherever. But Zoom is vile.
Because Putin is not insane and does not want to destroy Russia.

He wants to take it, and he can threaten and get away with it because the West won't react.

If the US 'gave' the Ukranians some drones and guided missiles and then 'fired' said missiles for the Ukrainians at Russian forces in Ukraine, at the bhest of Ukraine, what's he going to do?

Start lobbing nukes?

In fact, the Nuke/MAD part is what makes it maybe safer to react. As long as the US isn't invading anything it's hard to see what he could justify doing.

If he did a nuclear test, as a 'scary demonstration' - he would then lose the world's support. Even China would balk. He would be firmly nuts.

Russians out in the open, not in their own country with defences are easy targets. The US could do 'generational' damage to Russian forces in literally just a few days.

The US/West should probably be doing everything the can do short of invading.

NATO doesn't have the guts, it would have to be an American President.

Trump has the 'gall' but he's not a military person and a loose cannon. Biden is far to effete. I think possibly GW Bush II surrounded by neocons, would have done something, and so would his father who ejected Saddam from Kuwait and then sat back.
So what happens to the chipmaking industry in the event of a Russian occupation of Ukraine and a Chinese occupation of Taiwan?
The issue has always been escalation, if your enemy takes out your forward warning systems, you have to assume a full scale attack is coming, and thus you have to respond with a full scale attack yourself, damn the rest.

This was discussed at length during the 70s and 80s, and a big reason why the superpowers started to reduce their arsenals, because there is no winner after the first nuke is launched, not even a small scale exchange can be trusted to remain small.

This is a terrifying time indeed
But we did finally realize that other races aren't inferior. And that women are equals. So I have hope, that some day we would stop taking their lives just for having a good time. Killing them isn't essential for our survival, or even health.

I think it's interesting that there are comments even here that say something along the lines of "once I learned that the octopus is capable of thinking I stopped eating them (even though I eat other animals much higher up the evolutionary ladder)".

What it says to me is that some people stopped eating them because it was surprising that octopuses have a complex sensory response system, because they never thought about it. But it's not surprising that a cow does so they keep eating them.
