That's the problem from your point of view. For me, a lousy cross-platform app is a direct upgrade from "no app at all", so I don't anticipate that very many software engineers are going to spend their time designing a bespoke version of their app for >20% of their target audience, even if the experience on that one platform is better. If we lived in a perfect world, every app would have a Qt, GTK3, GTK4, SwiftUI, Winforms and Fluent Xaml version that makes everyone happy. Somewhere you've got to draw the line though.
Which is great because the best of that best electron apps doesn’t even get the basics like find right
It's especially funny because when pressed on war crimes committed by their governments with their tax dollars, they will day "well listen it's not my fault our army did that, I'm not in charge! There's nothing I can do to stop our (democratically elected) leaders". But then they'll turn around and insist people in a dictatorship should be able to oust their dictator. I'm totally against Russia, but it's insane to me how people can think this way. It borders on cruel to have such unrealistic demands from people who aren't responsible
This is true. I wonder how servers used to scale very well in the past.
The subjects are the ones in the best position to get rid of Putin. And in a way the subjects are responsible for their leader. Many are fine with the status quo and sitting comfortably at home while Ukrainians are in refugee camps.
Some browsers and web servers replace backslashes with slashes, so backslash is one of the less desirable characters to use.

Possibly for refracting telescopes where the light passes through lenses but pretty much all serious telescopes use mirrors to reflect light and therefore couldn't do this. However, I'm sure that you can come up with some wild optics if you are optimizing for size or minimizing distortion.
This is always true, and yet dictators have existed since the dawn of humanity. I don't know why people expect Russians to function like a hivemind, rather than humans that disagree and have instincts for self preservation
That's easy - block highways, train tracks, etc. Anything that is used to wage the war.
> process/structural problems are quite easily solved with software.

My experience has been the opposite: the software is easy, but only if you already know what it needs to do. So you have to actually solve the problem first.

> Then if someone has problem with process you tell them "it is software that requires it" and they comply.

How incredibly user-hostile. If they have a legitimate concern, don't leave it unaddressed. If there's something important about the process they're missing, it's a mistake to use the current state of the software as an excuse.
This is mostly true, but due to a small Reynolds effect the heavier plane should actually perform a little bit better.

What you describe is why gliders sometimes carry water as ballast in their wings. It enables the same lift/drag ratio at a higher speed, at the cost of a higher stall speed.

It doesn't achieve that. Their economy is only cut off from the west. China, for example, still is find to trade with them. The west is still buying their oil too.
I'm not questioning the existence of such elements in Taiwan — including some group apparently so formidable that you can't/won't even mention its name.

No, what I find highly implausible is the notion that such an extreme "unification at any costs" ideology has any significant popular support. More so still in the aftermath of the PRC's recent suppressive tactics in Hong Kong.

I'm sure the scenarios you hint at are indeed explored at great lengths among Beijing-funded think tank strategists, but I can't see Xi & co being naive enough to elevate such an approach as their most viable course of action.

Sanctions make inaction less and less attractive.
I tend to see technocracy as rule by the scientifically trained, by technologists, by career civil servants, by industry, and by institutions. Technocrats gain their credibility as legitimate leaders from the approval of institutions like academia and industry in contrast to leaders whose legitimacy is directly based off of popular approval. Technocrats are often leading from behind the scenes and driving actual government policy despite being unelected.

I don't see technocrats as having the same biases, ethical and moral failings as everybody else, I think they're rather unique on all those points, and this is at the very core of what is good and bad about technocracy. When I think of a classic technocratic decision, I think of Margaret Thatcher closing down coal mines while crushing any union resistance, a technocrat-approved decision, and it significantly aided the economic success of Britain under Thatcher. Yet it exacerbated inequality and divisions within Britain that persist to this day. The severity of this fallout was blindingly obvious to the average northerner but it caught the average technocrat off-guard (decades of political ill-will tends not to be part of models), whom still lack effective solutions to resolve the issue, and the issue will drag down Britain for quite some time.

Great write up. Every software engineer (including myself) who has received vague instructions like "rate limit the service based on client IP address" or "only allow requests from these IP ranges" has gone down this rabbit hole.

My TL;DR on the topic is:

1. There's no single correct mechanism for determining the client IP address. Any standards and headers you may have come across are merely hints. Your solution has to be custom-built taking into account your use case, your network topology and the service provider(s) you are reliant on. If any of the above changes, your code has to change as well.

2. There is no single "correct" answer for client IP address, no matter how much effort you put into 1. Any value you come up with is at best an approximation, so treat it as such, especially if you are using the value for something critical like authorization.
But there is a popular quote from Upton Sinclair that goes, "It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it," which basically means I can ignore what any professional says and claim they just have a conflict of interest. It works great.
Mad is about large scale simultaneous exchange of thousands of warheads.

This article clearly states that Putin won't start with all the nukes, just one, on military target or just for show.

Then NATO should condemn but not reapond likewise.

Because lack of nuclear response to such limited action does not affect MAD in any way.

And nuclear response just normalizes use of nukes.
China is certainly thinking about expanding their influence right now. I don't know exactly to what extent they can do that, but I'm sure they can see the opportunity for what it is. They've been expanding their influence in the Eastern world for some time
There aren't really restrictive open source licenses since any restriction you would actually want for business protection makes it not Open Source.

I have zero problem with companies making proprietary software and we should call it as such. If the way your business makes money is by selling or hosting your software then, ya know, not a good fit for OSS -- totally fine. If you develop a piece of software because it solves a problem for you or your business and you think it might help others and you want community contributions then OSS is for you.
By this logic I can stretch any law to any meaning.

Any details on how the researchers completed this detailed stall by stall mapping of the wet market and why it took this many years to be released?

Back in the beginning of the pandemic, no animals at the wet market had tested positive and we were told that it was just in the humans at the market. They were seeing COVID on surfaces at the market at that time, but had opposite conclusions.

> A number of early cases of the outbreak in Wuhan were tied to the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market. *Later*, researchers took environmental samples that suggested the virus had landed on surfaces in the market. But in the period since, tissue samples from the market's animals have revealed no trace of the virus. For the virus to jump from animals to humans, the animals have to actually be carrying it.

>"None of the animals tested positive. So since January, this has not actually been particularly conclusive. But this has developed into a narrative," he said.
Carlson said his colleagues in China have been careful and precise in their work, publishing data according to international regulations that any scientist anywhere in the world can examine, and that strongly supports the conclusion that the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market wasn't the source of the virus.

This is a good example where import controls are obviously silly. Is Bolivia (pop 11M) going to have a domestic car industry? Does it make any sense to ship the raw materials for building a car 4000 meters up in the Andes instead of just shipping the car?
No, but this convection oven ceases to be a convection oven if it cannot convect. (I know convect isn't a word.)
But you don't actually feel those differences unless you (a) measure it or (b) have such an absurdly large project or file as to actually encounter these problems. Many people aren't working on supermassive/monolothic projects and VS Code works just fine for my little 100-500 lines-per-file projects. I don't really care if it takes 0.0002 seconds instead of 0.00009 seconds because the end result is that it feels instantaneous either way. Sure if my files were 1,000,000 - 5,000,000 lines of code per file and I was working on massive projects the 8 seconds vs 0.004 seconds would begin to make a massive difference. I don't though and so it doesn't matter.

I sped up the RegEx in my application earlier by an astounding 99.92% on average. I run several dozen various RegEx on a string once every few seconds - sometimes even slower. Execution for the end users already _appeared_ near instant and after the improvements it... doesn't feel any faster for the end users. Because the efficiency of my RegEx doesn't really matter at the rate strings are being parsed and for the small size of the strings (<150 characters often in the 30-50 range).
Regardless of the pros and cons of rail vs buses, isn’t it machiavelllian to sabotage a project because you personally don’t like it? It would have been one thing if he’d lobbied against rail, the claim is he pushed for a false claim that the Golden Gate Bridge couldn’t support it. That’s different

One major problem is that the MySQL "text" protocol doesn't support true parameterised queries. There's no way to pass parameters in the `COM_QUERY` packet: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/internals/en/com-query.html

That's probably why many of the libraries mentioned in this thread use "smoke and mirrors". Of course, it is quite possible to correctly escape a value by rendering it to a string first, _then_ encoding the whole thing.

To have true parameterised queries, you need to use the "binary" protocol, which many MySQL libraries don't offer support for. (MySQL also has some frustrating limitations with the binary protocol, such as not allowing a SQL string containing more than one statement to be prepared.)

It's not clear to me whether Russian-issued cards will still work within Russia.

VISA:
> Once complete, all transactions initiated with Visa cards issued in Russia will no longer work outside the country and any Visa cards issued by financial institutions outside of Russia will no longer work within the Russian Federation.

They very specifically state that Russian cards won't work outside the country and foreign cards won't work within Russia. But there's no mention of local cards and local transactions. I assume this means that Visa will continue to operate within the Russian silo.

MC:
> With this action, cards issued by Russian banks will no longer be supported by the Mastercard network. And, any Mastercard issued outside of the country will not work at Russian merchants or ATMs.

Mastercard, on the other hand, says that any Russian-issued card will no longer be supported by the "Mastercard network". This sounds like they are disabling all Russian Mastercards, period.

The distinction is very important. Siloing Russian cards to work only within Russia would surely be annoying but not catastrophic. Completely cutting off access, on the other hand, is a huge fucking deal.

After I typed that I went looking for Visa vs. Mastercard market share numbers to get an idea of what impact there would be from just one of these shutting down.

Looks like Russian banks have already been working to get ahead of this by partnering with China's UnionPay, which I hadn't even heard of.

MySqlConnector (C# - https://github.com/mysql-net/MySqlConnector) uses "smoke and mirrors" for the "text" protocol (because MySQL Server has no way to send parameters as part of a `COM_QUERY` packet, https://dev.mysql.com/doc/internals/en/com-query.html) and true parameters for the "binary" protocol, which does (https://dev.mysql.com/doc/internals/en/com-stmt-execute.html).

Every MySQL client needs to do something similar, due to the design of the MySQL protocol.
I don't like it. I dislike it badly enough that the first time I ran into it, I was moved to find this thread and leave a complaint here. Main things:

* Code samples that were free of soft line wrapping now have lots of it, because the code blocks are narrower, and the wrapped lines are misindented and confusing.

* The line-height (2x the font height) is too large; this makes it hard to pick out paragraphs, because the whitespace between lines in a paragraph is too close to the whitespace between paragraphs, headings, etc.

* Using red as a link-color is bad

I do like the sticky table of contents and the inclusion of a dark mode, though.
Half of pregnant advice isn’t based on serious research, as knowingly harming a foetus to disprove a claim is out of question. We only get “large scale of absorbing X for decades can have bad consequences” levels of granularity.

On “safe” diets, you have the same thing happening for diarrhea, where what’s supposed to be safe food will heavily change depending on culture and what most of the population is assumed to be eating everyday. In France cheese if said to be fine outside of raw and some special cheese (like Roquefort), lean meat is recommended with potatoes, cabbage etc., bread is considered OK, where as you point out Japan recommends lean fish and other local vegetables, bread is out, cheese as well.

Considering everyone’s gut env. is different, it makes sense that what is safe and not actually has wild individual variations and generic advice is to be taken with a healthy dose of skepticism.

This is far from a solved problem in medicine. Higher salaries aren't enough to attract the number of doctors are needed, and there are also other issues that actively drive away doctors.

Antisocial Coding: My Year at GitHub (2017)
I've previously owned Nikon gear and currently own quite a bit of Canon gear, but it was time to upgrade to mirrorless. I have extensive professional experience with both digital imaging and filmmaking going back decades.

A variety of things made the A1 a better overall fit for my unique mix of needs and interests. At the extreme high-end of current mirrorless cameras (>$5k without lenses) any major brand's latest flagship will very likely far exceed the needs of almost all users.

If you don't already know why you'd choose one brand's flagship over another, you probably shouldn't be considering any flagships. Frankly, these are highly specialized, complex and esoteric tools that are also incredibly expensive.

I recommend starting out with more mainstream models which are already supremely powerful and quite a bit less expensive than top-of-the-line models. Check out recent mainstream model reviews at DPReview.com - a highly credible source of objective comparisons.

Professional digital cameras are a mature and highly competitive market that's changing frequently. No major brand is overall "better" than another. It's more about finding the best fit between your needs, skills, budget and preferences within a certain price and application segment. Any camera/lens combo represents a set of trade-offs between a dozen or more variables including light sensitivity, shutter speed, zoom, depth of field, video capabilities (resolution, frame rate, bit rate, compression, etc), weight, size and flexibility.
