Considering I see bad faith arguments from politicians in power all the time, I wouldn't say anything conclusive about good faith or bad faith being stronger. This is before mentioning how many people are running around with a victim mentality, quickly antagonize others or engage in social activities which reinforce segregation and labeling over trying to form a social understanding.

A lot of people love drama, and bad faith creates drama. Good faith creates solutions, and a lot of people seek solutions. That alone is enough to be skeptical of anything conclusive.
Btw, the political correct name for the Italian town in the video is "Franzensfeste" and not "Fortezza". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franzensfeste

It is located in the German speaking part of Italy called South Tyrol. There have never been a lot of Italian speaking inhabitants in this region, and the Italian names of the towns have been given by Italian fascists. So people living there don't like them very much.
> These people have no real knowledge of history

That's a kinda naive take, the ones actually writing those theories know history pretty well. Marx rewrote all history fit his dialectic, the same is done by his children because it really works, rewrite the past to influence the present and get the future you want.
New research shows what it takes to make society change for the better
well people hate 'techies' in San Francisco because they are thought of as transplants wearing northface invading the culture or whatever, also they are seen as the sole source of raising rents and overall gentrification of the bay area. I guess they are seen as unworthy and their jobs just give them tons of money and they dont contribute.

In Mexico/Colombia/South America people are both envious and hate tech nomads, mostly because they have high salaries and can seemingly do whatever they want and afford it all.

I think the association with wealth and marginal taste is the reason people dont like people who work in tech.

When it started was the second tech bubble in silicon valley bay area and the rise of 'digital nomads', alot of it is warranted and alot of it is jealousy.
>There is value in a leader who lies – but only if it is done for the greater good.

Nope. I finished reading the article here. You can't actually make this argument for greater good because I can't tell if you are lying to suggest there's any greater good. As a self-professed liar, that may be a lie. Is the lie that you only tell white lies or do you tell bigger lies? I don't know.

One of the identifiable problems in society has been the move away from 'thou shall not lie'

I'm not saying 'go be christian' but rather that's one of their values that you shouldn't throw out. World religions tend to agree no lying allowed.

Sam Harris' book on lying, written as an atheist, comes to the same conclusions.
The exclusion test is to reduce false positives like:

return open(filename, mode, encoding=encoding, errors=errors)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This case matches because of the under-caret'ed

e, encoding=encoding, e

You are right that requiring only leading whitespace would be clearer. I didn't think of it. I only wanted to eliminate those false positives I was seeing with my original test, which only had \2, \1.

In thinking more about it, your whitespace-only gives a false negative for constructs like:

progressbar/widgets.py:306: if not self.fill_left: rpad, lpad = lpad, rpad
matplotlib/lib/matplotlib/widgets.py:1093: if vmin>vmax: vmin, vmax = vmax, vmin

The reason I stored \1 was simply to get the grouping. I didn't recall the syntax for non-capturing groups, and it wasn't worthwhile to look up.
I pretty much second that this is one of the biggest flaws. I'm often assured by people invested in web3 that this is a problem that's going to be solved soon by the flood of designers entering the space, but my doubt is growing with each passing day. It seems more likely that this flaw in the system is going to persist for many years to come and very sadly, many people are going to lose a lot of money through it.

How in any world were nuclear bombs NOT INTERESTING? Sure they sucked, maybe, even that is arguable. But only a Luddite will say something like ”nuclear bombs are boring”. Tech has always been interesting, and cool, at least since the industrial revolution in modern eras. As Kubrick showed brilliantly in 2001, “technology” is what has always made us different and successful. Brutal, sure, but successful nonetheless.

Hmm, I guess that matters if you are using public servers. If you are running your own server, then it is a non-issue. I still think self hosted mumble is a great solution to the problem.

I fell into Legowelt rabbit hole few years ago. That was basically all I listened for couple of years. Then I was so happy to see him live playing on a small venue on Helsinki 2018. The gig was sold out but I payed good money for the doorman to let me in. Raved on a first row whole his set. Good times.

I think that running a marketplace application on DigitalOcean is pretty easy (done in a few clicks, but depends on the application). If the image contains common sense security measures, then for the average user this is safer than a 3rd party SaaS.
No. It's not. In some instances people were in the wrong place at the wrong time, or treated poorly based on pretty minor actions, but even at it's height Guantanamo housed < 1000 people. If we were sweeping up any an all Islamists I'd expect a good deal more than that.

Also, the U.S. didn't 'get away with' Guantanamo. It was a big news cycle and the prison is nearly shut down now, and operates with much more consideration for the prisoners, giving them access to counsel and repatriating then when able.

Sometimes I've heard people remark that tech salaries are ridiculous. But it's not like me taking a smaller cut is going to help them out: that margin would get sucked up by some corporate offshore account
Whataboutism is a distraction from discourse regardless of the conduct of the target. As an example, if even Nazi Germany had held the US accountable for interment of Japanese citizens, that would still lead to a positive outcome. Their own acts of genocide wouldn't excuse the US's actions.
That I see as a likely outcome. Though companies may still offer an option to have a secured wallet (non-custody) for longer term storage of value. There aren't many but there are a couple of options like that out there where you give custody of the funds where you want ease of use or automation (trading, savings plans, etc.) and then have non-custody as part of the same service where you store whatever you don't want to give the custody of.
Yes, I think he has a bit executive dysfunction -- a bit unable to set and follow up on long term goals.

That'd make it hard for him to join a uni or find ways to make use of his abilities.

This is basically how Excel works when you use custom number formatting. You can set a number format to display numeric data in a specified way (e.g. "00-00-00" for a sort code, or "0000 0000 0000 0000" for a CC number).

Excel will store the data as a number, and display it with the selected format, but you can't type it in with the spaces etc. - it needs to be input as just a number.

I think this way of doing things is quite common.
A500 Mini review – tiny Commodore Amiga is a robust piece of tech nostalgia
I'd extend that to smartphones, a tracking-based ad industry, and digital media sales.

Digital media sales provided serious, multiply-Apple's-stock-price levels of new revenue into the tech industry. Same with adtech for Google.

The smartphone enabled them to physically target an entirely new population of users.

Then both companies eventually evolved towards the bulk of their revenue, as all companies do.

When it comes to DDD, I highly recommend the book Domain Modeling Made Functional and the lectures the author has given based on the book: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9QlhkQl0DSw

Those two resources where the ones the led to really get and appreciate DDD. One thing I really liked about them is that all the examples are in F# (the functional part of the title) and so manages to make it clear how DDD and OOP are decoupled and how DDD doesn't necessarily imply OOP.

> need to implement

I think "need" implies too much. Because, for example, for 100% headless applications the open+free version is already viable. (But in practice everyone wants to debug using the HDMI from time to time, mostly because almost noone has NTSC lying around.)

Also, without looking at the docs of the VPU, I'd guess that most of the blob functionality is needed for advanced vector stuff and whatnot (so it's only needed if you want to implement OpenGL/EGL/WebGL).
biggest problem, of making 'society change for the better', is getting 'society' to agree on what 'better' looks like.

One person's 'better' is another person's 'worse' - I don't see that changing anytime soon.
Agreed, but perhaps, even more constructively: "Great, you agree we need more of an ability to shine a light on--and hold people to account for--human rights abuses worldwide."

The US has been deeply hypocritical by opposing the ICC, for example. But the policy fixes that we need for what's happening in Xinjiang--public accountability, international institutions with teeth--are the same ones we needed for what happened (and is still happening), at a fraction of the scale of Xinjiang, in Guantanamo.

"Whataboutism" only works because the whatabouters assume their opponents will reflexively defend the US (or whomever). The implication is, strangely, not "The US has done this too, so we need strong institutions to hold the powerful to account" but, rather, "The US has done this too, so whatareyougonnado?"
They haven't heard of Texas, for starters.
Most paid software jobs are solving other people's business problems. Most business problems are inherently "boring." This has always been the case, but as a child you don't notice that kind of thing.

Agreed - media portrays OWS as broken movement with no goals and no hope of changing anything. That's neo-lib PR - corp media does not want you take OWS issues (pro-union, anti-corporate, Medicare for all, etc) seriously.
Most of the skills are transferable. Yes, APIs and provisioning tools can be different, but Terraform and Kubernetes abstract a lot away unless you really need to use PaaS (which can be a lot more useful than VM-centric folk usually care for).

But anyone who’s done infra at scale can easily get up to speed on any of the big three—-as long as you take the time to understand the differences, and actually model costs before starting to play around.
I don’t recall China invading and destroying a successful Middle East country twice and utterly laying waste to the region and throwing it into chaos. One can debate over which crime is “worse” I suppose.

What’s also interesting is that towards the late 80s and 90s the USA was really warming up to China at a time when they were carrying out pretty horrible atrocities, far worse than the USSR, but that was the political agenda of the time.
I think that it doesn't matter whether it was 'provoked' or not: the police should be professionals who prioritize public safety above all else, and this is a total failure.

"The problem" with lists like these is that they proliferate without reason. This fragmentation means that it's basically impossible for anybody who needs one to know which ones are good or up to date. It also guarantees that most of them will be unmaintained at any given time.

I feel its current approaches (owl rdf etc...) are stuck somehow and there is something like a ontology Winter. Its not dead but the solutions out there do not scale well. I believe something like the gellish language approach must be developed towards a open standard and there needs to exist something like a decentralized registry of ontologies and dictionaries. Maybe like DNS.
It's definitely an age thing. Don't get me wrong, I know OP feeling all too well. But, it's like complaining about how the music I grew with was the best music. It's more likely the curiosity in you die, rather than the world running out of stuff to be curious about.
The report from Gartner, that this is based on, says that "Excluding Chromebooks, the worldwide PC market grew by a modest 3.3%". So PC sales did not decline, but Chromebooks have dropped off a cliff. Don't even wanna read their analysis when they bend their source like that.
There's no function similar to "likes", "upvotes", or "reddit gold" that incentivizes good faith communication either. The features are too ambiguous.

It's a small community, but it's an interesting experiment at what online communication could be.

Building new train tracks still takes at least a decade.

Usually you need one decade to properly plan the route (it's hugely political were the track runs exactly, next to village A or village B? get all the legal stuff done, move a few people out of their houses and find replacements for them, dispossess the fields from farmers, geological examination, drawing the plans, and much more).

And then you need another decade to actually build it. Germany is highly populated, so you need to build a lot of tunnels under or close to villages to protect them of the train noise.

For this tunnel planning was started in 1996, construction started in 2008, and it will be finished in 2032. So 36 years in total.
