I don't think anyone thinks a car crash is no biggie. They just don't think it'll happen to them. Or they give themselves a pass to send that quick text at a red light because they're usually so safe and it really is important, and nothing happened the last time they did it, etc etc.

Maybe scaring people would help them out of this mindset but I really doubt it.
package.json scripts are definitely a bit out of place. I think their prevalence stems from popular npm projects using the pattern for easy cross-platform developer experience. I've seen some shell scripts in opensource node projects, but not much makefile, and I actually had an interviewer once joke that makefiles were old and out of style.

But as I have worked with less Windows developers over time, my projects have relied more on shell scripts and makefiles. I think the containerization movement has started to shift software development towards Linux-based tooling as well. As a cross-platform effort this is a bit ironic, but having overlapping developer experience and CI/CD tooling is pretty convenient when you're on a Unix kernel or WSL2.

However, much of the npm ecosystem and community are focused on frontend work that often does not involve infrastructure-related tooling. Without the absolute need for any OS-specific tools, and with the many composable crossplatform scripts in vogue already, package.json scripts make sense (until they get out of hand).
Yes that is a good point, if you don't have a good idea on how many subdivisions you want then K-Means won't help you and hdbscan is better.

Does anyone know on what grounds Google was able to do this? I'm assuming copyright infringement, because Vanced was distributing modified YouTube APK files, which are copyrighted. If so, could they not simply release an APK patching tool or something, instead of the APK files directly?

> Second, why do we want a community-contributed module to be widely used? That's stated as a goal but without explanation. If there is a widely used community-contributed module that is better, put it in the standard library.

It saddens me whenever a core web spec picks a sub-optimal solution purely because a 3rd party tool already picked the optimal one.

I find it ironic that the css "when/else" draft spec uses "if" for describing the conditional scenarios in plain english. As if the spec itself admits the syntax they are choosing is clearly sub-optimal.

check some usage notes on your use of "accident"[0]

> Risk management and risk mitigation experts (such as actuaries, systems engineers, and others) generally do not approve of calling motor vehicle crashes (MVCs) "accidents", because they advisedly reserve that term for things not directly caused by human recklessness or negligence. Because it is predictably obvious (and directly causal) that distracted driving (e.g., texting, IMing/DMing, videogaming, or intoxication while driving) produces MVCs, those MVCs are not "accidents". Nonetheless, among the general public, MVCs are quite often called "accidents" rather than "crashes" or "collisions", not only by idiomatic inertia but also because connotatively, it steers clear of broaching the topic of blame assignment, whereas a phrase like "he crashed" connotes blame.

There's also a relevant twitter reply concerning intent[1]

> On the part of the individual drivers, it was accidental.

> On the part of the city, it was deliberate - they built an unsafe road, they can see the statistics - it's so unsafe that TV news crews come to talk about how dangerous it is - and they don't fix it.

I'm concerned that this will lead to more single species planting. Healthy forests are a mix of many many plant and animal species. This is one of the big problems with lumber companies replanting -- what they replace with is not nearly as robust as what they take away. Overstory is a great read for anyone interested in this topic.
No, you will hear back. We're trying really hard to keep to the 6 weeks thing but sometimes we don't succeed.
I think it's fair to acknowledge the clash, but "if" is our word for that thing - "when" could have been that word - every time you do a conditional jump you're only doing it when certain conditions are met "when x > 5 { y += 3; } elsewise { y -= 1; }" that reads perfectly fine - but it's common convention to use "if" for this condition.

I don't really have a strong opinion on the when vs. if fight w.r.t. yielding support to SASS but I think that "if" is just a better keyword to use in this instance based on language usage alone.

Or. Maybe china was facing the threat of nuclear attack from both the soviet union and the united states, who both had absolute aerial superiority over china, and rather than building massive centers of steel production which could be destroyed with a single bomb, they distributed/decentralized it amongst their immense country and population? It's the simple idea of not having all your eggs in one basket. It's better to have 1,000,000 small producers of steel than 1 major producer of steel when you are facing nuclear armed adversaries. It's also why china didn't start to urbanize until after they produced enough nukes and icbms to guarantee their own safety. Just like Bush didn't want to waste a $5 million missile to take out a $5 tent in afghanistan, nukes are pretty much useless against an un-urbanized nation. There were studies done by the US government on nuclear war vs soviet union and china. All the studies showed that even though china had a much larger population, our nuclear attack on the soviet union would be far more devastating because the soviet union was urbanized whiles china was decentralized and rural.

It's so funny how these people who were doing such inefficient and pointless activities set the foundation for china to eventually usurp the united states. We've been told how incompetent and backwards "the ccp" are and yet we are told that they are our top threat? Which is it?

So much of what's written about china turns out to be nonsense propaganda when you just take a closer look. Could it be that mao and the communists were smarter than people who write wikipedia articles or just read them passively without giving it any thought?

Better in terms of what? There are many variables to consider, and some might be more important than others in your case. If you "cost" is the top priority, get a dedicated instance with unmetered connection and a 1 or 10gbps port, then you'll have a static price/month that won't surprise you. If latency/bandwidth is more important, throw a CDN in front of that instance, but price will vary more then as you'll pay per data served (in most cases).

I don’t know exactly. There’s a difference between this exploitative shit and say only fans. Assuming a creator on only fans is not being extorted in any way and understands what they’re doing they get to keep much much more of the upside and have creative control over the content. I don’t see that here. So I guess handle the demand means shape or encourage consumption of more creator friendly content than this xvideos stuff.

It's hard for me to imagine any manager being so lacking in awareness as to take a bunch of complaints to the CEO. You take solutions to the CEO, or maybe a few options if you really have to. My experience as a CISO is that most processes and technology will have security deficiencies and changes will be slow and incremental at best.
> China being against US interest in general makes perfect sense to me, but against the EU it just does not make as much sense.

I'm not sure if EU can be considered as a party able to care about own interest. It's just a group that is more concerned about US than common European interest. If it were an independent factor, we would already have own army and there would be no US occupation^H "support" troops scattered at every strategic point in Europe.

And Europe would have strong rules that would limit the influence of US traditional and social media in Europe, that basically create what Europeans think and want.

So yes, if China wants to be number one, it will focus on harming the current number one, and not his minions, which will sooner or later just change their master when number one changes.

How is that easy if there are currently on H-powered garbage trucks on the market and it will take billions of dollars to replace all of them?
A little surprise hidden away in here: it is currently possible to exfiltrate data from a Cloud Storage bucket at standard tier ($0.085+/GB) instead of premium tier network rates ($0.12+/GB). This is achieved by making the bucket a backend for an external HTTP(S) load balancer [1] ($18/month).

This announcement adds an additional $0.008+/GB for the cost of outbound data moving through the load balancer, so effectively that's a 9% increase on the standard tier bandwidth pricing.

Meh. CGI was one of the easier to consume interfaces that is really not hard to rebuild from scratch. I suppose it makes sense that python has (or had I guess) a library for it but it's really not necessary. Enough of the primitives are there. Those that need it could easily write a shim.

It does make you wonder why it was removed though. I can't imagine it was difficult to maintain.

I'm not sure what would solve things for Andre now, but what would have helped him in childhood was having a home and not being driven to sell stolen property to make ends meet. Some of the deepest solutions to societal problems take a long time to really see the results of.

To shift it the other way, I grew up pretty privileged and never felt the need to steal things and steal them. However, I can easily determine that if I was homeless and poor I absolutely would have. There's no question. You do what you need to do to survive. To look at a 30-year-old guy and be like "what can we do" is missing the timeline by 20 years or whatever. His personality is now deeply invested in a "steal to live" mindset and it will be a constant struggle even if he got arrested and jailed repeatedly.

Wait, I missed one piece of your message, "the money is going to the wrong people" -- it doesn't make a difference. You help people and some people take advantage but society gets a massive net boost all around. You WANT everyone in your society to be doing decently and not driven towards crime.

Not Ukraine. If trade interdependence keeps democracies from defending other democracies, but doesn’t deter Russia, then it is counterproductive.

There is probably value in interdependence, but it can’t be blind interdependence - it needs to be conditional and truly multilateral. If EU depends more on Russian fossil fuels than Russia depends on EU imports, it isn’t really interdependence.

Google shuts down YouTube Vanced, a popular ad-blocking Android app
One thing people don't know is that the phone network is actually a bunch of duct-taped technology that is pretty old. There has been advancements, and if you're in the US, you'll be happy to know that mobile carriers require stir/shaken handshaking, which is _mostly_ equivalent to https on the web (this is a gross simplification).

The short/simple answer is carriers don't care, because they make money when a call is placed on their network. There is also a difference between what is a valid number (digits are correct) vs a real number (someone owns a number). It is cheap for a carrier to check validity, but not "realness" - to check a real number, a carrier may have to do some sort of data request to any number of carriers to determine if the number is owned.

"makes our trees uniquely well suited to land with high heavy metal concentration"

Seems like this could have all sorts of neat uses and potential pivots to other opportunities. i.e. I imagine a table made of the wood might be stronger and maybe look different. Or even eventually using trees to clean up waste areas or claim metals from soil.

What sort of water/sun requirements are there for the trees? Do they wind up being able to grow across a wider range of zones? Did you consider the fastest growing bamboo?

I don't think the CSSWG should care one bit about Sass's syntax. Just use if...else if that's what makes sense (and I think it does make sense). Sass is interpreted into CSS, so CSS is the authoritative language, and Sass is a derivative.

> This dialect of Fortran prepares kids for a world that mostly no longer exists.

This is a weird criticism, learning type declarations will not make someone worse at programming or rot their brain. It's mostly just syntax.

As a point of comparison, Scratch doesn't let you assign object instances to variables. I just can't imagine getting worked up about type declarations in comparison to that.

Also... casting no longer exists? I still do explicit casting in JS on occasion, and it certainly comes up in C-like languages. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think Rust even has implicit type coercion at all.
I don't think it's ignorance of the rules, I think a lot of drivers consider themselves to have above average driving skills and what you consider dangerous tailgating is your failure to understand that these people have extraordinary reactions and can actually manipulate the laws of physics.

Oooh, fascinating. If I recall correctly, this happened once before in JavaScript. One of the Array.prototype methods has an unintuitive name because dojo, a very popular utility library at the time, monkeypatched the Array object with the method name they would have chose, and adding it to ECMAscript would have “broken the web” because so many sites used dojo.

Anyone remember the method name?

I know you don't like this interviewee's attitude, but think about it for a second. This is a man who has spent most of his life flipping small-dollar goods outside on a street corner and being looked down on by many. This is not a life most people would envy. I don't condone petty theft, but I don't think Seattle would benefit from this person losing their housing or being prosecuted either.
I found myself having to do some clustering a few months back and learned about mean-shift clustering [1]. I found it to be a nice clustering algorithm for when you don't know quantity of clusters ahead of time.

That said, its worth noting that there are algorithms out there for determining optimal number of clusters for k-means (though personally I found them to be costly and subject to overfitting) like using the silhouette coefficient or elbow method [2].
