"America, yours is the better lot

Than is our continent’s, the old.

You have no ruined castles’ rot

Nor marbles cold.

Nor is your inner peace affected

In your present active life

By useless thought which recollected

Lead to useless strife."

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, as quoted in Christian Melz "Goethe and America" in The English Journal 38 (1949): 248.

Well, as Faulkner wrote in 'Requiem for a Nun':
"The past is never dead. It's not even past."

And now let's see if that Deepl.com AI will become a great writer in the future:

"America, you have it better

Than our continent, the old one,

You have no ruined castles

And no basalts.

You do not disturb in the interior,

To living time,

Useless remembrance

And futile strife."

Hm, there is still a lot to be desired.
But probably a lot better than me.
Yes, I'm not sure how ml is used or needed here. But the website is well done.
If you're dockerizing a dev environment check out batect, it's kind of like the combo of docker-compose + make (i.e. simple script running) that is really the tool we all just want: https://batect.dev/ It can easily define one-off container tasks like integration test runs with just a couple lines of config.
I'm not sure there is any legal repercussions to being condemned by the UN. I think it is just a symbolic way to show disapproval from one government to another.
They also made the game free to play.

>I didn't always agree with him politically, then and now, but his writing and his person transcend politics

His intro to "Republican Party Reptile" more or less said (this is from memory) that his politics fit more into the Republican mold, but that he wasn't particularly happy about that, because he also liked having fun. It's hard to cubbyhole P.J., and he preferred it that way.

He had a way of turning a phrase that made you go, "yeah, I wish I came up with that." I have to viciously edit anything I write because if I'm not paying attention I will blithely rip off something of his without thinking about it.
> how could it be worse? I'm honestly not sure if it was or not, even yet.

By showing us that it is all lies by lying about literally everything, we will become wiser? By demonstrating that our democracy is weak by attempting to topple it, we will become stronger?

It sounds like some kind of Tough Love dream. I don't care for it, though, I think draining the swamp is an admirable idea so long as filling it back up with the sewer isn't the second part of that plan. I'm not convinced the path to a better country requires that we destroy it first.
Could you not imagine the Proud Boys being allowed to serve as a unit if Canada seized Montana and Idaho, and the national guard needed resources? (With the assumption that the US had a GDP equivalent to Ukraine's.)
Did you mean that one learns more there, or that the well-known name of the university makes it simpler to get a nice job?
I've been using SingleFile for the last year or so, it's amazing!

I'm going to hijack your post for a question! I love the way you can use the editor and select "format for better readability," then save just the stripped down version of the page. I use this to send it to my e-ink device.

The question I have is whether it's possible to toggle the default save to use the formatted version automatically? I dug into the options and didn't turn anything up!
It would be better to have server side tools released to host a personal instance of a given game. Too many games become lost forever when the companies stop hosting them. People who get banned could just pay AWS or something to host their own games.
Regardless, like I said, the Kytch box (a Raspberry Pi) is overriding the code that accesses the secret menu of the ice-cream machines [1]. That's outside the intended operation. And that's liability if McD knows about it and says nothing.

The machine produces food that goes into people's bodies. Ie, if it were to produce a poisonous glycol ice-cream (glycol one of the pasteurization ingredients) all of a sudden, even if it has nothing to do with what Kytch is intended to do, could you really 100% discard in front of a judge that a glitch or a hack in the Kytch's linux computer, which is btw connected to the internet, didn't order the ice-cream machine to do that which, as a consequence, killed a hypothetical 5-year old kid from food poisoning?

Imagine McD is now Boeing and the Kytch box is something airlines found that make 737-MAX fly safer by plugging into and overriding the system codes so that it can warn pilots of possible 737-MAX issues... Does it make sense for Boeing to allow such thing even if it makes planes safer?

I am definitely biased by my values, and I value finishing something once you started. Always ;)

Then yes, I might be of course proven wrong, I just gave my 2 cents on what not finishing a degree tells me, including my bias.

Then you could be a false negative, in the sense that you might have not finished your degree but be able to commit 100% on other things. However, as we all know, spotting false negatives is very hard and who hires don't like these bets if not in very particular circumstances, as it is going to be their fault if the person is then not a false negative but a true one. With or without backup data.

I think is no coincidence that as far as I can see the OP basically got the "finish your degree" as first and foremost comment.

Don't take me wrong: I have been a false negative and an outlier my entire life, now I love it, but in the early days I really wished someone told me what I am saying now.
> whereby a select few can view private information

Oh, cool, then Taler also doesn't have a backdoor, since its auditability is also not a method by which a select few can view private information.

> Moreover, there are various methods, especially in Ethereum, where this private information can be hidden, like zk-SNARK-based mixing contracts that break the publicly visible link between deposits and withdrawals to it.

Cool, you can also try to mix your transactions on Taler, so another point towards Taler not having backdoors.

> Ethereum's lack of privacy is a result of the attempt to allow global auditibility of the validity of transactions.

So what you're saying is a deliberate design decision to allow auditing as part of the core design of a product isn't a backdoor? Cool, then Taler doesn't have a backdoor. Note that Taler's auditing design is more private than Ethereum's, it leaks less information to accomplish the same goal.

> breaks privacy intentionally, for the sake of preventing people from escaping taxation mandates

Also known as auditability. Ethereum's design breaks privacy intentionally, for the sake of preventing people from double-spending.
Yeah - there's a trade off here.

Server push gets you closer with a traditional app, but it doesn't really solve the problem (or rather - yes, you get to reinvent it yourself, but you can do it better, with the specific context of your app)

Basically - My argument is that developers tend to treat SPAs the same as "the website" but with a bigger js framework. And that's the wrong mindset.

Instead, you should think of the first load as an install of a native application. You want to push absolutely everything, not just the next couple of resources you might need (like imgs/css). Ideally you push the current page first, and do the rest in the background while the user can interact with the current page, since you're almost never CPU bound on terrible connections anyways.

You'll get one additional load at login (because now I'm pushing all relevant user data), but after that... basically everything is rendered from cache (including optimistic cache updates based on what the user might be adding/updating).

After that... unless you log out or have cache evicted, you're going to see immediate response times, even while offline.

---

This isn't easy, and most teams don't bother, so if the comment is "If you're treating an SPA like a traditional page - don't bother" then I tend to agree.

but an SPA genuinely opens up options for bad connections that otherwise just don't exist (or are so bad people won't use them)
Given the Unity acquisition of WETA, I thought Epic Games's next acquisition would be to buy a movie or FX studio to compete - that is, if they aren't building their own. I think the end result of these acquisitions is that the line between making a game and a movie will no longer exist. Sometime in the future, everyone could build and render their own Star Wars in Unreal or Unity.
I agree. These people hating on SPAs are mostly not frontend developers. They're backend devs that think returning an HTML page is all you need to do. Modern websites are very complex.
If there's one thing Russia is very good at, it's surface to air defense.

They've screwed so much of this operation thus far, but I bet you that good chunks of that column consist of Tunguskas and Tors, and the Ukrainians know it.
Thanks for sharing. That article is disorienting! How'd you find it?
To the point of Apple, Google, Microsoft, etc virtue signaling during this time - yes, they are doing it. And yes, of course they calculated this first and didn’t just do it on a heartstring. It’s like regular people giving to charity to get themselves a tax deduction. Sure, it’s a calculated decision to get some personal benefit from it, but in the end, a charity still got some money which is good for them.

It’s like a cost-benefit analysis of sitting in church evaluating the social backlash of not doing something vs. the cost of putting some change in the collection tray passed around.

The reason other things get passed over (other wars, conflicts, politics, etc) is because these companies know they can skip out on those collection trays and not face any material scrutiny.
At the risk of a pile on, this is what jQuery was brilliant for. And frankly the native browser APIs have caught up enough that scenarios like what you want to achieve are simple to implement with just a script tag and a sprinkling of JS. I don't know what "Stimulus controllers" or "Turbo frames" are but they don't sound necessary.
Holodomor is relevant, ot orthogonal.

I meant purgers, internal thing toward Russians.

Oh, and yes, 2011 to 2015 is long time of escalations.

The question is whether they will pull punches when ennemy don't give up.
In addition to Dr. Deming's books you can check out The Deming Institute (www.deminginstitute.org). They have a "learn" section with blog posts, podcasts, and articles about the Deming philosophy and how it's being used today. Plus they have sections on some of Deming's main teachings (e.g. the Red Bead Experiment).
It will be visible soon that the far right and protests against counter pandemic measures in EU and US is supported by Russians.
I've encountered the behavior on three separate devices in two separate browsers, with and without plugins.
The Russian air force "exists", in that they have planes and pilots and bombs. But in what quantities and in what condition is a huge question. Furthermore, are they as good at flying in relatively contested airspace as is implied. Russia had total air superiority in Syria, Georgia, the Donbas, and the Caucasus. Ukraine has an army that actually exists and is being armed with some pretty high tech shit from the west.
This is maybe backed up by the fact that in other countries, McDonalds serves the same ice-cream from machines that seem to always be working. The "McDonalds ice-cream machine is always broken" meme seems to be a uniquely US phenomenon - or at least it's not completely worldwide.
There seems to be a Kazakh translation by a guy called Medeubai Kurmanov.

See:
http://www.rusnauka.com/9_NND_2014/Philologia/6_162301.doc.h...

Quote:
'The first part of tragedy in Kazakh language was published in 1969. The full translation of Goethe’s drama poem "Faust" was edited in 1983. The translation of "Faust" into Kazakh language in Germany was marked. Klaus Schneider in his book «Alma-Ata. Kasachischer Fruehling» writes with delight about Medeubai Kurmanov. Many warm words are written about him in the reporting of Rut Kraft «Fruechte aus Alma-Ata». Medeubai Kurmanov is selected the honorary member of Goethe International society.'

Maybe the Goethe-Institut in Almaty knows more.
if you are designing RF and cellphones have plenty of that, learning controls systems is a must. Think PLL, VCO, etc.
Being familiar with your project I'm curious how this new one differentiates itself (other than being built on cxx).
I've been having fun with this post all day, but now I kind of need to know: Can you give examples of noise on the Archive?
Nexon founder Jung-ju Jay Kim has passed away at age 54
It was spot on.
Chris (CEO) here. We approach the mental health dialog differently. We consider access to mental health to be an extension of primary care, a fundamental piece of the care continuum that is needed to sustain people in their pursuit of health and wellness. As a result we have not only contracted with physicians directly in the market but have also expanded access to care through teleheath and telemedicine solutions. We had a press release recently about the innovations we are making in this space (see https://lnkd.in/dDCTGaYs.

“free mental health coverage” -> We combine our network of therapists and behavioral facilities with online digital health solutions that have their own providers. In person therapy is included as preventive care. No copay, no deductible, no limitation. We combine that with targeted digital solutions for specific mental health conditions (burnout, depression, stress management, etc.) These solutions, again, are made available to members usually without any costs (except for very specific programs). Engagement and participation is incentivized and rewarded with cash on their Evry card. We are making an effort to make therapy – of all kinds – accessible, convenient, affordable, and effective (whether digital or in-person).

How did we build our network of therapists? -> Same as the medical providers (see other Q&A in this post). It requires time and “boots on the ground” having conversations, building trust, and creating contracts that avoid the traditional games played by both sides. We’ve had good success getting digital networks to work on PHQ-9 type metrics and outcomes, sometimes with 100% of payment being tied to a tangible improvement by the patient.
> You had a CNN commentator straight up saying this is different than Middle East wars since Kyiv is a " civilized city".

CBS News foreign correspondent Charlie D'Agata, actually.

> It's not hard to imagine if Haiti had a US backed leader, who was removed in a coup and then replaced with a pro Russia / pro China president. Now imagine China and Russia announcing plans for various military bases on Haiti. The Russians could finally have a warm water port.

> In no universe would America accept Haiti having a right to its own foreign policy.

Uh, you know this actually happened in a different Caribbean island state and, while there was a bit of a dispute about nuclear weapons that resulted in both alliances pulling them back from each others borders in a quid pro quo, and a variety of covert and sponsored-third-party actions, the US never committed it's military to an all out assault to displace the Soviet-backed regime, which still exists and is still closely associated with Russia even after the fall of the USSR, a geopolitical alignment outlasting the notional ideological one.
China’s lead in the container port business
A SPA is an Application and not a Web Site. With a SPA you can replace classical desktop or mobile applications, for example Gmail, Spotify or maybe Dropbox.

SPAs are good for that, because you just have to develop it once, instead of 5 or 10 times for all platforms.

SPAs are bad for traditional websites that deliver content.
Is there a configuration for the zip version where I can avoid duplicating the static assets? Thanks
Well, you can do the same on Linux. The Linux kernel system call ABI doesn't usually break support for old software, and as long as you have a statically linked binary you can run even software that was compiled targeting Linux 2.4 (if I recall correctly).

The fact is that is usually done in the Linux ecosystem: if you have access to the source code, what is the pro? It's just simple to recompile the software targeting the release of the operating system you are using. By dynamically linking system libraries you will get smaller executable and save RAM since they are shared (not only on disk, but also in memory, that is what shared means!)
It's very hard to find pirated source code though.
I don't think Bandcamp's policies were ever going to work for everyone, but I appreciate them, and am a pretty active customer and user. I may have to reconsider that now if Epic starts "improving" the service.
He indicated repeatedly that he believed the bit about individualism and human rights applied to today's conservatives. I find his writing delightful and amusing, certainly, but he definitely fits squarely into the current political tribal definitions. Though as much as he tried to be satirical about it, he definitely saw his own side through much rosier glasses than he saw the left.
The good news is that there has been a long time since glibc had breaking changes, and the formal policy of the kernel reflects on it and makes future breaking changes unlikely.
There's a Twitter account I can't find right now (help!) which shows the statements companies put out at the moment of acquisition ("nothing will change, ever, we'll always be independent") and the statements they put out a couple of months later ("all your files have been deleted, we've closed the offices, everyone is absorbed into Parent Company, so long and thanks for all the fish").
> In natural language, the authority on what a word means is just the convention.

Look, I'm not the person who started word-for-word quoting random blogs to win a technicality fight about how a specific word was being used. You want to escape from pedantry, great. Here's the non-pedantic reality: Taler's ability to audit merchant income streams is meaningfully different from a clipper chip and they should not be compared to each other, regardless of what umbrella term you think they both fall under.

You want the non-pedantic argument about language? Language is (as you say) a convention, it's descriptive not prescriptive -- and the majority of people looking at Taler are saying its design around auditability isn't a backdoor; therefore it's not, because language is descriptive and not perscriptive.

> Merchants are not going to sign up for this if private options are available on the market.

Citation needed.

> Thus inspection tools on it wouldn't be a backdoor by virtue of them wanting you to not have them.

Wat. You're just making things up now.
Which is a big middle finger to those who had purchased the game. And I can't think of a game that didn't have the quality of its player base (and so, gameplay) decline after going F2P (looking at you, TF2).
I seriously doubt that this would pan out. I think Putin is definitely losing support internally but the fear is still very much present. All of his political opponents are either imprisoned, exiled or dead. Some are even exiled and dead.

No one wants to lose their life going against someone so ruthless knowing they could lose their life... or their loved ones.
Most of your input example is nowadays typically handled by code outside the GUI toolkits themselves (such as the IME, the text shaping and the font stack), although the general "the GUI devil is in the details" thrust is right.

Sorry for the source quality. I don't know if the article is true. But if true,

Like I said, I'm not enlisting if the Russians invade Poland. If individual American citizens want to a join a Polish foreign legion, that's fine. Maybe the State Department can create a list of approved foreign legions American citizen can join.

Vagrancy / NIMBY / property values ... that is not surprising at all.

The interesting thing is such laws are of course preferentially/conditionally applied to you if you "look homeless". In this case they are being applied to owners, which implies a "sucky local politics" subcurrent.

Why would the mayor not waive enforcement in this case? Smells like a shitty town government.
We don't have single binary releases, but we do have single folder releases that are guaranteed to work out of the box on any given windows server. For me, the number of actual files is not of consequence. Just being able to run something and know its going to run is the key bit.

The new Self-Contained Deployments feature in .NET made our lives infinitely easier as a B2B software vendor. We no longer have to have sweaty-hands conversations with the customer about which .net frameworks are installed or even allowed (?!) in their environments. I literally click my mouse... 4 times in visual studio and have a zip file containing everything we need to send to the customer.

We also moved to SQLite recently, so that one zip file is literally the entire kingdom. You could grab a blank VM from Azure and our product would startup and run on it without any extra bullshit.
Mathematicians Make Sense of Chaos
Check out Pulumi, it's a similar idea of python (or other languages) to generate container orchestration config for Kubernetes or other systems: https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi
The "stumped" is not actually in the article.

FTA: the issue is that Russia made a huge show of force at the start of the invasion but has apparently held back from actually using much of it (by air or ground). This war could have been over the day it started if Russia had used maximal force, and the conservative approach their actually using maximizes risks and casualties.

And that's what has the experts confused: they can't figure out why Russia is going with this strategy, given the overwhelming technological and numerical superiority of the invasion force and their apparent willingness to accept casualties as the cost of conquering Ukraine.

It doesn't appear to be cost, because the invasion has "cost" Russia hundreds of billions.

It doesn't appear to be casualties/morale, because Russia has suffered 500+ casualties in 3 days (its worst losses since Afghanistan), and is still invading.

It doesn't appear to be doctrine, because their actions don't match what is known of Russian ground or air doctrine.

And so experts are trying to figure out what calculus went into Russia's invasion planning (assuming there was a coherent strategy going in, which is not a given in the post-Trump world).
The rest of the article explains why they won't release this product opensource even though they love it. It is not disingenuous.

They released Mapperly under Apache-2.0, but I don't know if you read that far.

If I tell you that "I love NodeJS but this specific project needs to run on embedded so I used C", it doesn't diminish my love of NodeJS or make it disingenuous. Love doesn't mean you'll always pick the thing no matter what, just a strong preference over the other possible options.
Even this recent video, which presents a bad look for their leadership, they were alright with it being public; it must be the best case, and it subtly presents a leadership structure within the Russian government that is both disorganized, and systemically fearful of Putin.
