Can’t you have auto-renewing clauses on your lease, with only small contractual updates every year on the points that effectively changed ?

That’s what I had on every appartment I rented. As you say it wouldn’t make sense to go through the building’s description every single year when nothing has changed.

Otherwise, an issue with having “standard” clauses, and only the differential in your contract, is your knowledge of the referenced standard at the time of the contract.

Imagine buying a house: I can’t imagine you’d be reviewing the standard house buying contracts every year just to be ready in case you buy one. So I’d assume you’d be reading the whole terms, from the standard + the differential at least once when you buy your first house. But then, if you sell and buy another one 5 years later, won’t you want to recheck the up to date standard terms, on top of the differential you sign for your specific contract ?

At the end of the day, I feel it would only benefit people who spend their lifes in the field and are aware of the standard terms at any given moments. I’d prefer to optimize for the people who are not familiar, and would have a harder time understand the whole of the contract.
I find that quite surprising. I don't have an induction hob, but I do have an electric fan oven, and I find my batteries, charged from solar cope with that just fine, or a 3kW electric kettle.

Is this also how you deal with logging/monitoring?

Because it is much easier, you don't have to build and maintain parsers for hundreds of languages. And you don't need need just any parser, you need very robust ones that can deal with malformed files well. Or, if you only pick a small set of supported languages, your diff tool will not work on most files or have to fall back to a structure-agnostic algorithm. Also not all text files even follow any useful grammar at all.

Finally, even if you have a syntax tree, that is just part of the solution, probably the smaller one. Detecting three lines of code wrapped in a new if statement is easy but also doesn't benefit much from a syntax-aware algorithm. But once you changes names and signatures, extract methods, introduce constants, and so on it will become progressively harder to match subtrees and one is probably quickly approaching the territory of NP-hard and undecidable problems.
Economists have all sorts of names for these.

For examples, imposed barriers for law or medical school is a form of barriers of entry. The profit-seeking motive becomes rent-seeking then, because the number of competitors is artificially lower.

Everywhere? This is a specific and actual conspiracy occurring. Sort of like PRISM with the NSA. Or Hillary Clinton conspiring with the DNC to prevent Bernie Sanders from being the nominee.

Hate to break it to you, but humans in leadership have a LONG history of conspiring against their people. And when each state has a population bigger than Rome, are you really so naive to think that Roman politics has magically ceased?

There ARE conspiracies among our politicians — they are conspiring to keep you poor and themselves & their interests rich.

It's a rhetorical device. Babies wouldn't understand it.

When used in earnest, it tends to sound breathless and dramatic, probably because that's how trashy journalists use it in headlines.

It tends to be used as a kind of statement of passive resignation. It's deliberately the most colorless, blandest, simplest way to possibly express the idea that it expresses. Whereas you might otherwise say "well that's new" or "ugh, I forgot about X", you might say "that's a thing."

It also seems to be somewhat of a recurring meme, I remember reading an article showing how this "a thing" phrase makes the rounds every couple of decades.

I think there are some really ugly phrases out there now ("ask" as a noun instead of "request" or "task" is kind of nauseating).

But lighten up a little bit, some people like to have fun when they speak. Think of it like absurdist humor, rather than baby talk.

I know it's trendy in some circles to claim that adults have become infantilized or whatever, but I don't think that's what's happening here.

Why are you beating this fake dead horse? Free speech is protected, offensive or not. There are no governmental consequences.

However, it also covers and allows for the replies, tweet storms, public shaming that occur when your free speech is racist, sexist, or bigoted and malicious.

That's what this debate is /actually/ about - you just want protection against backlash.
> If those two were represented as a single "NOTA" option, that option would have won the ballot in terms of votes.

If the ballot were different, the results would be too. You can't take the results of one ballot and mush them around to support a hypothetical result; see also counting of the 'popular vote' for US president, a ballot which has never been tried, and whose results are unknowable.

A vote for 4 says (to me, not a qualified voter) I don't like the current voting, and hiding identities is also undesirable; if this choice is selected, the status quo must be continued until a new alternative is voted upon, but there's clearly desire to do so. If option 3 were selected, the status quo had clearly won, and the issue should be considered settled for whatever timeframe Debian considers appropriate.

I think it’s actually pretty silly. The same people demanding you no-hello them (that is, try to enforce a social solution on everyone else to solve something they can easily solve technically) will also tell you to e.g. use an as blocker, or go on about Postel’s law.

Looks really cool, but there was no instructions on how to install it.

I would recommend putting an installation guide in your readme, and it being a full installation guide.

I followed the link to your manual and then it told me to install your tool using a tool called "cargo" with no reference on how to install cargo. At this point I gave up. Lazy, maybe, but for a convenience tool like this I want a convenient installation.

> Security isn't only your responsibility

This.

As a developer, your security-aligned goals should include code review, readable/auditable code, configuration options that support testing/QA, features that operate on a principle of least surprise to the user, and other things like these. Security is ultimately a blended practice.
It’s been done.

I share this sentiment, I can't tell the posts linked in OP are lying.

Though, the running theme in OP's posts is that of anecdotal evidence. This should always be taken with a grain of salt, even if the person on the other side isn't lying. People tend to exaggerate certain parts of their experiences to suit their world view, usually subconsciously, and neglect to share other parts. You can't really find much truth about a topic based on the experiences of a single person.
Does anyone know what's happening at Google? Have they grown to the point that the huge profits from web search aren't enough to sustain them or something?

I'm seeing Google ratchet up its monetization across all aspects:

- YouTube plays mandatory multiple ads

- Frontpage search is full of ads

- Gmail used to have some Infinity plus storage plan but now after 15gb is used you can't receive email. And they're using Photos towards this quota.

Nothing against paying for services but there's a noticeable and very aggressive drive towards lockin and monetization of its users.

Far more than before, so what happened to Google that's causing this?
I'm sure the Somalian pirates can't wait.

From what the article describes the benefits of working for such a company are transparently honest and fair plus that work gives experience with robust management practices and international business culture. In these countries a good job with fair and regular pay that prepares workers for expanding career possibilities is a really big deal.

And there is evidence of this opportunity focused mindset in the US. Last I checked the highest earning demographic segment in the US was Nigerian immigrants. Being ready to work hard and conscious of the risk of failure makes a huge difference in how pay, work, and business operations are evaluated.

This is the root cause of North America's broken telephony system. $30/month buys you a landline with unlimited outbound calls to both landlines and mobile phones. The system has no facility to meter outbound calls from a landline.
But it's deceptive and political to complain 3 and 4 are too similar but then not also state that 1 and 2 were too similar. 2 also lost votes to 1 being similar.

Also 3 and 4 were not similar. 3 would have changed the constitution to require public voting, 4 would simply do nothing and leave the issue an unanswered question.

This wasn't the general public. This was a few hundred people who carefully follow and care about the Debian project. I'm highly skeptical anyone who voted was "confused".
I'm no capitalist, but if you could improve the world while delivering exponential returns on capital, that's a win-win? I don't think something's mutually exclusive just because it is rare.

thanks for sharing this! the emulator community is fascinating and inspiring
github is still kind of friendly to noscript/basic (x)html browsers. I dunno how long it will last before $soft turns github into gitlab, namely explicitely hostile to noscript/basic (x)html browsers.

I did move my repos to "free" basic git hosting services on the net.

What would you need for today "development" (broad definition) of "popular" components: a web front end, an issue tracker, a mailing-list, a git server (ssh-ed write, http/https read).

The web front end is static html.

noscript/basic (x)html is beyond than enough for an "issue tracker" (cf bugzilla), including account creation (google javascript only-captcha is really nasty).

The mailing-list would need to implement grey listing for subscription (which would be disabled once the subscription process is done). The naive usage of spamhaus lists by many sysadmins of email servers is really toxic for self-hosted ppl or users of small email services.

The git server, well, the git server.

This is significant upfront work, not to mention the maintenance with the permanent "attacks" from corpo/state-sponsored paid/brain-washed saboters to deal with.

I understand why many devs are caving-in: they endup using those gitlab-like free and ready development hosting services because of the "path of least resistance".
This is a very toxic pitfall, because those hosting services forces ppl to use the absurdely huge and grostesquely complex google(blink/geeko) or apple(webkit) based browsers where noscript/basic (x)html browsers should be more than enough for most, if not all, core online development functions.
Or a horrible witch hunt if it isn't.
>in USA, the callee pays.

Except in certain circumstances, I don't think this is true.

First, most calls are free now. You might have a number of minutes, but both the caller and callee have to pay for minutes at the same time. But most plans are unlimited calling within the USA now, I believe.

When calling other countries, the caller pays. Receiving a call from another country doesn't cost anything.

"Collect calls" are calls where the callee pays the long-distance charges. This is unrelated to the "minutes" above. There are no long-distance charges within the USA that I know of, but international charges will apply to the caller unless they "call collect" and then it would be the callee. The callee has to approve it, though.

Most 1-800 (and 1-888 IIRC) numbers automatically charge the callee instead of the caller. This is an agreement that the callee has with the phone provider.

1-900 numbers (and certain 1-800 numbers, for some reason) charge the caller. These are another agreement with the phone provider by the callee, and they're supposed to get consent from the caller before charging, but there are many scams here.

Because of the lack of long distance charges inside the USA, 1-800 numbers aren't as common as they used to be. For a while, almost any business that had wide-ranging customers had one. Now, it seems like only mega-corps still have them.

All that said, I vaguely remember someone saying that they had 2 sim cards because they had 2 plans. IIRC, they got better long distance rates on one or the other, and used them appropriately. That was a while back, though, and I could be remembering it completely wrong.
Good point. I’m a Fullstack js web dev and decided I should make the switch after a combination of getting fed up with unpleasant experiences on ec2 instances and creating dozens of custom vscode shortcuts that I later learned do things that basic vim does
I agree "serverless" is misleading but it just means "no server to administer".
FWIW, I'd like some kind of representation for Debian users.

Many DDs (most?) also work on other Linuxen, and are not particularly committed to "The Debian Way". My guess is that most Debian users use mainly Debian.

If users had had some representation in the systemd decision, I think it would have gone the other way. Package developers naturally don't want to have to target two init systems; I suspect a plurality of users are server admins, who would have been likely to vote down systemd.

It's hard to see how user representation could be made to work though; I don't want users to be able to tell DDs how to work. I just wish users had a bit more than zero voice.
A spoofed message should FAIL DMARC. It could PASS DKIM and if the signature came from a domain that is owned by the attacker. But DMARC will fail when the DKIM domain and the HEADER.FROM domain do not align.

> * Click Other Google activity and then Google Workspace search history.

> * Click On or Off.

If I go to:

Yes, I can find "Other Google activity" (check the top left hamburger menu if you don't see it)

But inside this, there is NO "Google Workspace search history". How are you supposed to do this? I'm definitely logged in as my workspace account.

Another thing I forgot to mention - MTU mismatch is hard to debug. Everything works until you hit the packet limit. I had a very funny case when I worked through SSH console normally until I maximized its window )) Also, diferent devices have different ways of setting MTU up - with or without headers, etc. In my case there was linux-based NAS, proprietary managed switch, linux, win7 and android clients. And because of the Ethernet-to-USB adapter I had to revert the whole LAN MTU setup to minimum.
