Here is a just one major example of censorship that was neither misinformation nor hate speech:

The Hunter Biden laptop story.

This story was broken by the right-leaning New York Post. Twitter banned its sharing in the weeks before the election, claiming it to be misinformation (with the implication that the leaking of its contents was part of a Russian plot).

~2 years later (when its relevance is greatly diminished) both the Washington Post [1] and the New York Times [2] have confirmed the major aspects of this story.

This was a coordinated censorship campaign, and a free speech platform would have allowed it to get the the sunlight it deserved.

Now, does it appear the NY Post's coverage was slanted and, in some areas, inaccurate? Yes. But that is where the rest of the media (including and especially Twitter) should have stepped in to perform its function in an open society: producing more and better speech.

I ran into issues with M1 core scheduling recently in one of my applications: https://github.com/corrscope/corrscope/#m1-slowdown=

corrscope is a PyQt app with a background thread which streams video frames to a ffplay process, which shows these frames in a video player window along with synchronized audio. During playback, ffplay is focused and corrscope lies in the background generating video frames.

> On M1 processors, if you open preview, after 40 or so seconds, the preview may suddenly slow down and audio will stop playing. This is because macOS thinks ffplay is the active app, and Corrscope is a background job burning CPU, so it moves Corrscope to an Efficiency core, slowing it down.

> There is no fix for this issue at the moment. As a workaround, you can click on Corrscope's window to avoid the slowdown, and drag it aside so it doesn't obstruct the preview.

Setting the background worker thread to QOS_CLASS_USER_INTERACTIVE does not prevent it from being moved to E-cores. This is a rather severe issue which damages the user experience, and I haven't found a workaround yet (outside of moving video playback in-process). How do Chrome and Firefox (and Safari I suppose) give their worker processes P-cores while users are interacting with the browser window process?

This could be a good thing. Really.

There are gangs of CS grads (and undergrads) with irreplaceable team chemistry.

They might see a only glimmer of that through the entirety of their Professional career.

They also know no different than soaring together, as a team.

They aren’t brow beat. They deliver, and they cater to each other’s strengths in a way that Middle Management cannot fathom.

Terribly clever.
Every (popular) modern operating system sits on decades old foundations written in C that can't just be replaced, so that's not a particularly strong argument.

It's noteworthy that Google is financing the effort to bring Rust to the Linux kernel, that Microsoft is also investing in the language and that there are newer, production usage focused operating systems written in Rust. (eg Hubris [1])

> You may agree today, but that can change. The company's management or ownership can change.

I've lost over 7000 EUR of income from a German company over vague contract clauses which I was too lazy to sort out when signing it, because my boss and I had known each other for a long time when signing, and I fully trusted him. 3 years later, the company was sold, and the new boss started to randomly fire people on any given day he saw fit. One day I've got a call that I should stop working on my tasks immediately. I was supposed to be paid until the end of the month coming after the month in which the notice was given, but they've never paid - not even for those ~15 days I already worked in that month - and German courts could not care less, plus it was difficult/impossible for me to chase them, being based in another European country.

Always be careful about what exactly do you sign - the circumstances may change considerably, however unlikely it seems at the time.

There are new grads who are already at senior level and have been working for several years.

They're definitely a minority but they exist and if this company can select groups of new grads that ship.
I remember very well I was working with a team of great engineers when I was in uni and we all sadly split up to pursue different careers.

That said, focusing on new grads sounds limiting, if I was BYOT I'd allow any groups of developers to participate. There is plenty of freelancers groups who may find it attractive to work together for a single client.

The main reason I don't like working inside companies is that I'm subject to whatever BS management think will make us more productive. In hindsight, in my 15 years of professional experience, that never works.

> cohabitation is less stable than marriage regardless of the mother’s educational background. In the overwhelming majority of countries, the most educated cohabiting parents still have a far higher rate of break-up than the lowest educated married couples.

The commitment effects of marriage are a lot stronger than socioeconomic effects. Cohabiting professional managerial class couples break up more than married working class couples.
I would agree with this, good explanations and rigour are definitely not mutually exclusive. But I am not sure what you are expecting. This is a research paper, intended to be read by other experts. Even still, if we look at how the paper is organised, the authors start with a high level overview, and build upon simpler problems to leverage their way to an understanding of the main result. For a research paper, it is extremely thorough.

If you want a 'simple explanation' that allows a layman to gain some understand the problem, sure. But this isn't, and absolutely should not be, the purpose or content of the research publication, which is to succinctly communicate to other experts the results of their findings.
Same lazy argument as saying "go live somewhere else if you don't like it here".

Why not? I’m interested in any concrete reasons why doing so would be a bad idea, why you should maintain independent extension points and bind LSP to them, rather than providing LSP-shaped extension points, as it were.

We are using Sqlite as a primary datastorage for "file blobs" and implement a software based replication using our queue to multiple servers for redundancy.

The use case is storing trace/profiling data, where we use one sqlite file for each customer per day. This way its easy to implement retention based cleanup and also there is little contention in write locking. We store about 1 terrabyte of data over the course of 2 weeks this way.

Metadata is stored in Elasticsearch for querying the search results and then displaying a trace hits the Sqlite database. As looking at traces is a somewhat rare occurence we iterate over all fileservers and query them for trace data given an ID until we find the result.

So I’m 42, and my 4 year-old son has recently received an ADHD diagnosis. We have a process in place and are working to ensure he gets support. But it has also made me look back over the particular challenges I faced - especially in my studies and my career - with fresh eyes. Would you be willing to share a bit about how you got to a diagnosis? Did you suspect beforehand?
it's about losing face and showing the control, we are not missing anything, old population in China ain't vaccinated because they don't wanna show support for western vaccines and Chinese vaccines are inefficient and they wanna show all these lockdowns work and they are not for nothing, basically just obedience test

Honestly I don't understand them, they could easily sell their COVID zero strategy as big success since they waited out much more dangerous variants until this common cold aka Omicron and they should now let it roam across China freely without any restrictions, though even with fatality rate comparable with flu it will surely kill a huge number of Chinese just because of sheer population. It would still not contradict narrative that previous variants were very dangerous and required harsh measures.

Or maybe I'm looking at it from wrong angle and this is really not about COVID at all, it's just convenient way to keep people locked NoKo style with all these health apps, but once you lift restrictions you lose control over people under pretense of fight against deadly disease (which is really on par with common cold/flu).
No you see to be an elite means you have to have a viewpoint I dislike and the more I dislike it the more elite you are
This is a very strong narrative making the rounds. Unfortunately it is not quite so. The batteries Tesla uses are a commodity - they are partnered with Panasonic and more recently the Chinese CATL (these guys do actual battery research, you know, with chemicals and lab coats).

Certainly packaging Panasonic rolls into 2170s gives them a nice edge but it isn't exactly rocket science.

The Giga press is made by the Italian Idra Group. They have bought them out at the moment but anybody can start nabbing them for themselves if they got a spare $30m laying around.

Tesla is certainly "good at engineering", but their advantage is not really in original IP so much as organizational agility. Perhaps the incumbents are too bureaucratic to adapt but I wouldn't count them out just yet.

As for software, give me a break.

P.S. - I am actually a fan just not a fanboy.

> There is a trend among security professionals, as it were, to place anything on the chopping block in the name of security.

I really have to disagree on this, in spite of not being a security professional, because the history has proven that even a single byte of unexpected write---either via buffer overflow or dangling pointer---can be disastrous. Honestly I'm not very interested in other aspects of memory safety, it would be even okay that such unexpected write reliably crashes the process or equivalent. But that single aspect of memory safety is very much crucial and disavowing it is not a good response.

> [...] the #1 way to improve security is to reduce complexity, [...]

I should also note that many seemingly simple approaches are complex in other ways. Reducing apparent complexity may or may not reduce latent complexity.

>If the question is literally about just one program source code, the answer is easy: print it out.

Doesn't seem like it's just one source code file if op states : "Requirements are: size < 1GB,"

Depending on font size (say 10pt) and average characters per line, that would be printing several hundred thousand paper pages which is not feasible for the average homeowner to roundtrip back into usable digital files.

Instead of a cheap flatbed scanner, you now need a high-speed auto-fed document scanner and then run batch jobs to OCR several hundred thousand tif images back to digital source files.

One could reduce the paper count by compressing the source text to zip and then printing a form of binary-to-text (e.g. UUENCODE) but now the papers have random-looking gibberish instead of readable text.

Printing <10 MB source code is more realistic than <1 GB.

(But I'm guessing the author may actually has much less than 1,000,000,000 bytes of original source code if one leaves out 3rd-party dependencies.)

The best thing that stills my mind is concentrating on work (which could be linked to Csíkszentmihályi's flow state) or doing meditation.

> Rust is by no means the ultima ratio. It's complex and places a lot of immediate burden on the developer. I'm sure there are better solutions out there that don't sacrifice the safety guarantess.

There are undoubtedly better solutions than Rust, but they tend to allow for more developer-managed complexity rather than less! For example, one might imagine a cleaned-up variety of the GhostCell pattern, to decouple ownership- and borrow-checking from the handling of references. The principled extreme would be a language that just implements full-blown separation logic for you and lets you build up the most common patterns (including "ownership" itself) starting from that remarkably "simple" base.
