This is well and good for a subject that’s just accumulated opinion, like most of the humanities. It would be awful though to be the poor kid who went through an un-graded math program in secondary school and got dropped into calculus freshman year of college.
I mean, fair enough. This is a good point, and I'll take it.

But, having said that, it also feels a bit like misdirection; I highly doubt the World Series is called the World Series because the otherwise US-owned teams involved contain international players. The implication of a 'world event' is that it consists of countries competing with each other, not US teams being open to hiring international players.

It's called the World Series because it considers itself world-class and needs not consider sub-par outliers lying outside of the US; at least I think that's how most people would interpret the phrase. Which is why acknowledging that there are competitive teams outside of the US context makes that particular phrase problematic.

I'd suggest using koin instead of Dagger. Dagger is alright but mainly popular in the Android world where Koin is the main alternative. However, Koin is native to Kotlin and a kotlin multiplatform project. So you can use it on Android, server development, IOS native, kotlin-js, etc.
How would say this is whistleblowing - why does he nor argue that way?

Oh and make sure you start with JDK17. I still see people starting projects with 8, you don't want that!
I don't use Twitter and sparsely use Facebook.

The feature to switch accounts without logging out had existed in many social services for a while now.

On a service having toxic elements; like, HN is toxic, to a lesser degree obv., and no I don't have the energy to actually expound on that.

One direct example though is that I got a downvote for noting the reality of the situation;

The problem was someone wanting to follow voices on Twitter they wouldn't normally follow but avoid being caught in an automated system like the one linked. Using another account is something people do for this.

IDK, is this something where noting a fact is taken by another party as a demand (to use the platform and engage in this way of using it), let alone a suggestion?
I understand there's a lot more to it but I use this to quickly switch between different repos. Good enough for me to wonder why it isn't a standard feature
OTOH it's been curious to see the real humans I only knew by famous nicknames come out, in more recent times.
I hope to see a response from Zoom on this.
I agree with that, but their actions do impinge on my preferences. My preferences disappear the moment theirs are exercised.

Here's an example. I absolutely do not believe that this is actually a fair comparison. I do believe it follows the same logic as your example.

Let me explain what I mean. Let's say that I lived in an apartment, and developed a habit of listening to extremely loud music with bass starting at 10pm, and ending at 5am. My neighbors have a "preference" to be able to not hear that loud music at all, and certainly not when they're trying to sleep. They may not _like_ the loud music, but that's as far as the harm goes. To enforce _their_ preference, they would have to restrict my behavior.

Now all reasonable people would agree that playing deafening bass in the middle of the night is inappropriate, and that it would be perfectly fine to restrict my behavior. In other words, we restrict others' behavior pretty frequently. And, this restriction is based on "common sense" judgements. When the preferences of somebody falls outside of the norm under this regime, they may not have much recourse.

Now to be clear, this is far from a perfect comparison: there are laws against noise pollution, and property lines are not really the same issue as "being obnoxious on purpose." In other words, I agree and admit that these two scenarios are not interchangeable in effect. (I do believe that they follow the same logic, however.)

It's also not the case that in the "duplex" scenario that the greatest ill is not simply that I must "see" the duplex. Really, population density in an area has a number of effects:

- More people means more noise pollution. (and in some cities, kids will play loud bass in their cars no matter what time of night it is)

- More crime. (if not per-capita, then in absolute terms)

- More trash, debris, and pollution in my general vicinity.

- Longer travel times.

- More crowds.

- Etc.

And again, I'm not suggesting that I should have a legal right to prevent density from occurring. However it seems that when density occurs I have no recourse but move. I don't have any way to preserve something which is singularly important to me.

You have to call cohorts something. I know a gaming company that went very publicly out of their way to refer to the cohorts as Big Spenders, Hobbyists, etc. It didn't save their company. What you name your buckets doesn't matter.

SaaS companies call customers Users, talks about Activating and Retaining them, put them in Buckets. If this is your bar for dehumanizing then this must be a very frustrating website for you to visit.

Do you not shop at grocery stores? They put the milk and eggs in the back to psychologically manipulate you into walking past other items. And you're stored in their database as nothing but a phone number! So dehumanizing.
I suspect the firing would happen either way, but the difference would be in how the company handled it. Delete the tweets and the person gets a severance, maybe a "layoff" instead of firing with cause, and no pushback on unemployment claims. Don't delete it, fired with cause, no severance, no unemployment, potential criminal charges.

It looks like the tweets are gone now anyway.
That is fundamentally different from what the parent reply is saying and that makes no sense either. The entire point of putting open source code out there for free with no warranty is to avoid accountability, in favor of more transparency. A BDFL is only legally accountable to those who pay their salary, and the companies that care about accountability will pay them in exchange for signing private long-term contracts.
Numbing it was never a conscious choice, and it's not like I even noticed it happening while it did. It was a learned response to significant pain over years / decades, without having a support network to help deal with it in a healthy way. This is one of the theorized ways schizoid personality disorder presents itself, and it's not a conscious choice that people make. And it's not just a switch I can turn on and off at will, it's much more complex than that.

I canvas in a rural ward, about half of voters are postal voters, many have adult children living with parents, and where one is postal, usually all are postal.

Watermarking an image of text, it doesn't get any more stupid.
Exactly, it would be more valuable if the manual said things like:

"I can come across as a dick sometimes but that is because I like to test certain stances on issues by vigorously defending them, I assure you I'm open to changing my mind if you just keep pushing, actually I feel like you are taking my intelligence more serious if you do. Not many people appreciate this, but somehow discussion makes me feel good" or

"I actually can get pretty pissed if I feel that you are insulting my intelligence (which I'm sometimes overly sensitive to), it is where I seem to get my sense of self worth from. I may over-argue my point of view then later realize you were right and apologize." or

"I act all cool and hipster but I'm actually constantly stressed when I travel and it makes me make poor choices and not pay attention to important things like 'Did I take my pass from the ATM 15 min ago?'." or

"I'm very shitty at keeping context in mind and often jump on the wrong details in a conversation, please have some patience." or

"I really really cannot agree to disagree, it keeps nagging at me, I want to talk it out until someone "wins". Yeah I've been called a dick for that." or

"I get stuck where there is no obvious best choice in just about any situation because I cannot make a choice based on gut feeling (it feels like weakness), I need logic and it makes me swing back and forth on questions like 'subway or Uber?', really annoying when you travel with me." or

"I do appreciate jokes that are slightly inappropriate, and I feel like often at work I have to self-censor."

Because the grading system _encourages_ students who already know the material, and _discourages_ students who don’t know the material.

If someone is discouraged from a subject, they are less likely to put in the effort to succeed in the subject. This creates a self-perpetuating cycle, which ideally education would fix.

Similarly, this sets students up for a false idea of their “good subjects”, when instead those are familiar subjects. A student who could be a polymath gets discouraged from pursuing multiple subjects because they’re already far ahead of the game in math, so they pigeon-hole themselves to the subject where they receive positive reinforcement.

Essentially, grades as a feedback system are less than ideal, and we can do better.

>'The"STIR/SHAKEN initiative" was supposed to fix this.'

This was only for voice calls not SMS. From a FAQ On Neustar's(SS7 provider) site:

>"5. Does STIR/SHAKEN apply to SMS/text messaging?
Currently STIR/ SHAKEN applies to phone calls only. However, work is on-going in the communications industry to evaluate the best authentication method for SMS / text messaging."[1]

It's unclear as to my why it does not currently cover SMS. Perhaps someone else could shed some light on why this is. SMS certainly uses the same SS7 infrastructure as voice calls.

> You can't fire someone just because they posted pictures online only because you don't like them, where I live.

I think you may be confusing authorities here? You can't be prosecuted for merely disseminating trade secrets. It's not illegal.

But your employer can fire you for it. They can fire you for almost any reason they want (exceptions, e.g. for reasons of ethnicity or some other protected class, tend to be spelled out explicitly in legislation). Freedom of association goes both ways. Zoom is under no obligation to continue to pay someone that is hurting the company.

Cortisol can be very destructive. A lot of people are either unaware of high stress levels, or don't do anything meaningful to bring those levels down. I've been taking Ashwagandha and it works really well.
> agility

Potential agility at the expense of eroding an employees rights and upsetting their equilibrium. IMO - not worth it.

> On the other end of the spectrum we find

Which is not a symptom of requiring a reason for firing someone, it's a symptom of the employer making people irreplacable.

Something that happens today even at-will workplaces.
No, it isn't. There's a saying in medical research: "mice lie, and monkeys exaggerate". This is because most findings in mice don't translate to humans.

Representing an experimental result as directly relevant to humans when it wasn't done in humans is misleading.
> Ruralia and Suburbia are not financially or environmentally sustainable, not as modern society.

That's fine, but cities like New York are not sustainable either. Ditto for commercial air travel, so the entire conversation is unproductive and pointless. It just degenerates into wealthy urbanites saying something along the lines of "You terrible suburb dwellers need to give up your unsustainable lifestyle and embrace our unsustainable lifestyle instead".

I'll take all of this more seriously when I start seeing environmentalists swear off things like commercial flight or eating food and wine that's been shipped halfway around the world. Until then, I'll enjoy my suburb and my car and my lawn with the picket fence.
You always have to grade students if you want to put them in classes where they are prepared to handle the material. Whether you call it grading, ungrading, or anything else some form of assortment relative to the class is necessary if you want every student to study material that is challenging for them.

From this it follows that the scenario where truly not grading is feasible is the one where the class has no required preparation that isn’t met by the least capable student in the cohort. Incidentally that was what I observed in general population US public secondary schools. There was no homework. In fact, there weren’t even textbooks.

> We assume that CMM tool only provide the technical basis for a good documentation but how well it is used depends on the developer

This comment exemplifies an important potential source of bias in your future analysis: judging how well practices are applied, which is neither objective, feasible, or relevant.
Someone's use of a practice shouldn't be considered more (or less) agile on the basis of their success, and you also lack clear measures of success to begin with.
Arrow's impossibility theorem only applies to ordinal voting systems. Quadratic voting is a cardinal system. Cardinal voting still isn't perfect, but it does get around some of the problems with ordinal systems.
The SCOTUS case that modern zoning grows out of is Euclid v. Ambler. It's a plainly ridiculous ruling, full of irrelevant editorializing about the desirability of urban environments. Consider this passage from the majority:

> With particular reference to apartment houses, it is pointed out that the development of detached house sections is greatly retarded by the coming of apartment houses, which has sometimes resulted in destroying the entire section for private house purposes; that in such sections very often the apartment house is a mere parasite, constructed in order to take advantage of the open spaces and attractive surroundings created by the residential character of the district. Moreover, the coming of one apartment house is followed by others, interfering by their height and bulk with the free circulation of air and monopolizing the rays of the sun which otherwise would fall upon the smaller homes, and bringing, as their necessary accompaniments, the disturbing noises incident to increased traffic and business, and the occupation, by means of moving and parked automobiles, of larger portions of the streets, thus detracting from their safety and depriving children of the privilege of quiet and open spaces for play, enjoyed by those in more favored localities-until, finally, the residential character of the neighborhood and its desirability as a place of detached residences are utterly destroyed. Under these circumstances, apartment houses, which in a different environment would be not only entirely unobjectionable but highly desirable, come very near to being nuisances.

What is this nonsense? "[T]he apartment house is a mere parasite." So the Court prefers suburbs to apartment living? Who cares? This is no basis for overturning fundamental property rights.

The Court in Euclid did what NIMBYs often do, which is to listen to all the arguments and then say, ultimately, "yeah, yeah, productivity, property rights, freedom, etc, I get it, I get it, but I don't want more density near me and isn't the intensity of my preferences on this issue what really matters?"
For clarity, in this context "state" is referring to one of the U.S.'s 50 member states (e.g., Massachusetts, California, etc.)

In the U.S., the acceptable reasons for terminating an employee are somewhat governed by each state's laws. Although federal laws impose additional constraints which state laws cannot override.
Here's a rule of thumb that will work for you, no matter how large a company you work for or how you got the material or what agreements they have in place: if it's not explicitly public material you should not disclose it.
It is trivial to implement. They don't do it because they make a ton of money every year selling origin spoofing to businesses and charging customers for incoming texts (they never asked for). Spoofing is a service that the telcoms offer. Not a weakness! At least, that's how they see it.
Zoom asked him to delete the tweets instead of immediately firing him. He had his opportunity and chose termination.
I guess it depends on if this counts as computers (technically it does IMO!), but with a million bucks to start a business I would get like an excavator and a dump truck and start a contracting company or something similar. Or a bucket truck and industrial wood-chipper and start a tree company. Something along those lines. There's tons of demand, a high barrier to entry, and it's all real-world usefulness.

The big roadblock is I don't know how to drive a dump truck, excavator, or bucket truck though. :)

I think this is much more likely to be just simplifying their internal routing. As a conspiracy theory it seems pretty weak.
This seems to assume, without argument, that the air force capable of doing it, which seems questionable. An air force that lost ~10% of its aircraft while holding back may be able to carry out devastating attacks but it does sound questionable.

Admittedly I'm no sort of expert.
I am myself very wary of this kind of personality tests but the case has been made in an interesting article that I can't seem to find that it is a form of "syntactic sugar" for the (apparently?) more established Big Five model. Anyways, I think OP's conclusion that it is eye opening that people have their own emotional structure/pattern of behavior from how they grew up and that you can find resembling patterns in different people quite reasonable.

They are talking about assignments, not tests. It applies more to skill-based courses than knowledge-based ones. If you're writing C papers at the beginning and A papers at the end, should you get an A or B?
They are fictional archetypes of established historical patterns, their reason to exist in pop culture is as shorthand allegories and extrapolations for common despotic behaviors that are already clear to everyone with a sense of history.
And, Ada's solution is the proximate cause of the first Ariane 5 exploding, destroying (IIRC) $1/2 billion in payload, unnecessarily.

In the Ariane 5 case, an ill-tuned and anyway unnecessary out-of-bounds check was compiled into the inertial platform firmware, causing a debug traceback to be dumped to the rocket gimbal controls, which interpreted the traceback as instructions to steer sideways. To be clear: without the trap, the payload would have been delivered unharmed. There was nothing useful that could be done about the out-of-bounds value during the actual launch, and they knew that when they built the system. Extra points for dumping debug details down a channel where it corrupted correct data.

Europeans I have mentioned this to considered what did happen a sensible outcome.
But all of this seems to be based on a false premise. Okta had already, before the tweet (https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/okta-we-made-...) provided a detailed timeline of their failure and admitted to serious mistakes in handling it.

It can be an advantage when it's been tuned and trained properly. When it hasn't been, it mostly just leads to additional pain for the empathetic person, and eventual withdrawal.

Parents need to be taught how to recognize children that are highly empathetic, and given the tools to teach them to train and deal with that aspect of themselves. Otherwise they'll experience great emotional pain in their lives without any of the tools they need to cope with it. That can have a rebound effect, leading to emotional numbing and social withdrawal.
I think they are talking about people like me who would like a cheap but modern home with reliable and inexpensive electricity, drinking water and sewage, gigabit fiber, paved roads to the door, and within driving distance to hospitals and Costco/Sam's Club.
