I'm pointing out that it's weird to act as if it's a "Democrat" thing in a thread about literal, state mandated censorship on the other side.

This is a personal bugbear of mine, but almost everyone actually agrees that "censorship" is a good thing, they just call it "moderation" when they happen to agree with what is being censored. The two terms are fundamentally synonyms with different connotations, and there's no agreed upon line as to which is which. Even free speech "absolutists" generally agree that some types of speech that should not be allowed (spam, child porn, and "shouting 'fire' in a crowded theater" being the three most common examples).

The culture war isn't over whether limitations on speech are good, it's an argument over what should be censored, and it's disingenuous to pretend otherwise.
It has already been demonstrated to you that you just can’t “add a build flag”. Your suggestion is unworkable (no matter how many italicized words you sprinkle in). Adding `.to_owned()` will at least work (see, now I’m doing it too)—however much you may dislike it—and doesn’t suffer from the problem of being a pipe dream.

You can try to take your “fizzle” comments to /r/rust. See how many people care about Rust being on its deathbed due to not adopting your misguided suggestion.
i am gonna guess that oat milk costs a lot more than milk...
yep, $5.19 for a quart at walmart....as for milk? $3.50 for a gallon...

same thing for artificial meat or even soy protein--easily more expensive than regular pork/hamburger/chicken...

no surprise, seeing as how most of eco-leftism is really just propaganda aimed to increasing profits...and this propaganda is always aimed to young people who are willing to spend more money to send a signal to others about their conscientiousness...and also easily manipulated by propaganda
Personally, I think it's debatable. Right up until a law says "including signal" there's a basis to say "we can't"

In the final analysis, just don't put signal infrastructure in Belgium. On handset, it's the individuals obligation to unlock not the service facilitator.
1) you need people and money for success. you need to spend on marketing or customers won’t know about your product. in my experience investors expect products to find adaption in some free/magic/viral way if they are any good. of course that is a simplification.
I cannot, it is not my area of expertise.
For the same reason "MIT" is relevant.
>> The researchers also created a smartphone app that can control the unit wirelessly and report real-time data on power consumption and water salinity.

> No no no no. I was all onboard with this seemingly wonderful product until I hit that line. The things that provide fresh water, that actually enable life functions, should NEVER involve controller aps. Switches. Dials. Positive on/off switches. Maybe the occasional touchscreen. But please do not put the need for a working/charged/connected cellphone between the user and their source of fresh water.

You are objecting to a strawman of your own creation. Before you hit that line, you read “The technology is packaged into a user-friendly device that runs with the push of one button.” and “The researchers designed the device for nonexperts, with just one button to launch the automatic desalination and purification process.”

And then comes the line that triggered your reaction: “The researchers also created a smartphone app that can control the unit wirelessly and report real-time data on power consumption and water salinity.”

The key word is “can”. “Can control”, “can report”.

So you have the simplest possible device: press a button on the device, extract drinkable water. You want status updates / remote control? Use the app, which is optional; nowhere in the article it is stated that the app is necessary.

So you might reconsider your stance and get back onboard with the product.
I do have stuff I like, but don't love. I just mostly listen to those on digital, as they're not worthy of the Ritual - yet at least =)
That's awesome. Congrats!

This is a massive ongoing collapse and it's holding (we're 5-6 months into the persistent decline), there is no rebound occurring.

The bubble is over (and has been for a while now). It makes sense there would be a sizable VC pullback from the public market crash that is happening to the more bubbly (and less profitable) companies.
Right. I think it was a response to a pathology-focused psychological profession. Today we call his approach “positive psychology.” I never got any Nazi vibes reading his work — rather an attempt to deeply understand humans at their best. Rather than attributing their peak humanity to genetics, he basically gave recipes for anyone to self-actualize.
Oh yes, you are totally right, and I'm not saying I don't have any privileges because I obviously was given a ton of them. You're right, I wasn't born a poor farmer's child in Africa or something, I'm speaking relatively.

If we're just talking about people who already know they want to work in tech and have some access to a technical education, then I think a path to these jobs is absolutely open to pretty much everyone if they are willing to work hard and sacrifice things. Of course it is easier for some people than others, it's not fair.
So you're saying it's a question of the threshold of "substantial". Okay, I can believe that.
The media want you to show that the world is falling apart for all kind of reasons. The social media shows you posts about the world falling apart for same kind of reasons - it generate views and sells ads.
The world hasn't been falling apart for the last decade as far as I can tell. Not in the US and not in many other parts of the world.
Do your roads appear on any government maps? I believe the mapping agency for road is called…shucks I forget. They’re sometimes ahead or behind Google maps.
18yo is college/transition age. Are they attending college or continuing with education, or do they need to/are motivated to get a job, and see coding as a means to that end? What to recommend depends entirely on the context.

Agree though- do not under any circumstances introduce/subject them to the toolchain bullshit we have to deal with.
Respectfully, it is exactly the right venue? I sorta thought that was the point here. And sure, done.
Employeed at 50 Companies
I've seen posts about people posting what they were doing about the bar being so low in tech. So I decided to post my own affairs.

I currently have 50 roles in tech; what I am doing is essentially outsourcing the labor to India, Poland, Nigeria, and Argentina. I am, basically, running an outsourcing company at this stage and have people process and handle requests in those countries and assign engineers. I learned a ton about quality control and am making 7.5M a year. I am able to juggle the work because most of my gigs are in startups and meetings rarely happen so i'm pretty much running on autopilot.
I like Scratch. I'm not sure about Bubble's idea of teaching code "without a single line of code."

Eventually you need to write code. Spreadsheets are code, and functional to boot. Everyone can do something in them, and fewer are proficient. It's not that hard to get started coding anything, however it may be hard if you don't know where to start, which is where Scratch comes in handy.
Why was their Twitter account suspended?
I'm really sorry that happened to your sister, but I'm also glad that's working out. Really, despite all of the pessimism about end-of-life decisions, ECMO is good technology and your sister's case is good evidence of that. I think what gets mixed up in all of this conversation is that what may be a good idea when you're less than 60 may not be a good idea when you're over 90.

As a side note, evidently, the French have really good medical technology and practice. They have been able to run ECMO in a Paris subway in order to save someone's life:

I really do hope this kind of measure can be made more readily available. Till then, I'm still happy it works for people like your sister.
I know all languages evolve over time, but it seems like languages on VMs like Java have the ability to radically reinvent themselves while not losing compatibility with old code. For example the improvements/differences in ideology from Java that are explored with languages like Kotlin, Scala, and Clojure.

Depends on jurisdiction. Inside the EU, the EULA is not a valid contract and gives RED no rights to anything.

This is true of any and all "license agreements" that are presented to the user after money has changed hands. You can safely click agree on any such things without actually agreeing to anything.

I don't actually know, but I believe that in the US things are more complex.
They mean the copy, not the code snippets
If someone said to you in February 2020, "Your country can start dealing with Covid right now and continue suffering from it for two years, or you can close the border and continue your normal life for two years while we develop vaccines and effective treatments for Covid", which option would you choose? That's what we're talking about.
This looks like an interesting idea. A twist on mailing lists with a web facing interface. One thing I couldn't figure out, are all threads one-on-one? Or is it possible to have threads with many people in them?

A small technical nitpick, it seems cache headers are not set correctly for images and such right now. When you scroll up and down the homepage, the same images get re-requested again and again. Out of curiosity, why are the top items unrendered when scrolling down?
I wish this to you, too!

What are you currently doing to stay healthy?
Very interesting. Can't wait to give it a shot.

I personally use a combination of xpath, basic math and regex, so this class/id security solution isn't a major deterrent. Couple of times, I did find it to be an hassle to scrape data embedded in iframes, and I can see the heap snapshots treat iframes differently.

Also, if a website takes the extra steps to block web scrapers, identification of elements is never the main problem. It is always IP bans and other security measures.

After all that, I do look forward using something like this and making a switch to nodejs based solution soon. But if you are trying web scraping at scale, reverse engineering should always be your first choice. Not only it enables you a faster solution, it is more ethical (IMO) as you are minimizing your impact to it's resources. Rendering full website resources is always my last choice.
I think the difference is that CDK “compiles” down to CloudFormation. Whatever you do it still has to be valid compared to a random application that can do whatever whenever. OFC I’m ignoring the way CDK makes it easier to use (and sometimes encourages) custom providers backed by Lambdas.
The question "is it legal" not "will it hurt me" not "will it hurt them".

Thats the discussion I'm choosing to follow, its right there in the title.
Thanks for your comment! I'm Justin Hutchings, the author of that blog, and you're right that it was pretty narrowly focused on dependencies. We've been making a concerted effort to post about a number of security topics lately to provide best practices for users, everything from coordinated vulnerability disclosure, to how to protect from supply chain risks.

You can find all of our security related blogs here: https://github.blog/category/security/

And thanks for sharing that blog, I'll pass it along to my colleagues in the Actions team.
Removing from google doesn't go far enough, the big culprit is the data broker. Displaying your age, is the biggest worry, among your friends circle.

The comments on this submission are overwhelmingly negative. Why are the comments on PVS-Studio submissions, on the other hand, generally positive?
Monogame (https://www.monogame.net/about/) is nice too.
Do you have plans for bots / bot networks that can simulate a conversation between two or more people? I do think the overall premise is interesting though and can see how it might deter undesired content from taking over your social network.
Well kind of for Firefox, there is this profiling tool which you could use (semi-built in)

I have a slight color deficiency, so the sample formula and paragraph are a bit hard to read for me, especially the paragraph. Up to 8% of male adults suffer from this, at various levels, so I'm surprised the authors did not mention this problem.

Another point is that their choice of colors seems to mix various luminosity levels. So I suppose that, even for someone without color blindness, some colored texts are are much more visible than others. I doubt this hierarchy was intended.
No surprise that Facebook is spying, but sad that it's forced on people by the state. I've seen google trackers used on .gov sites as well. It should be illegal to force people to give their data to 3rd parties when they just want to take advantage of a public service

Not _quite_ what you're describing, but Replay [0], the company I work for, _is_ building a true "time-traveling debugger" for JS. It works by recording the OS-level interactions with the browser process, then re-running those in the cloud. From the user's perspective in our debugging client UI, they can jump to any point in a timeline and do typical step debugging. However, you can also see how many times any line of code ran, and also add print statements to any line that will print out the results from _every time that line got executed_.

So, no heap analysis per se, but you can definitely inspect the variables and stack from anywhere in the recording.

Right now our debugging client is just scratching the surface of the info we have available from our backend. We recently put together a couple small examples that use the Replay backend API to extract data from recordings and do other analysis, like generating code coverage reports and introspecting React's internals to determine whether a given component was mounting or re-rendering.

Given that capability, we hope to add the ability to do "React component stack" debugging in the not-too-distant future, such as a button that would let you "Step Back to Parent Component". We're also working on adding Redux DevTools integration now (like, I filed an initial PR for this today! [2]), and hope to add integration with other frameworks down the road.

I'll be an armchair economist and throw out my ideas for why this is happening:

* Dramatic increase of inequality in the last 40 years means that wealthiest buyers are determining the price of the entire housing inventory. I know too many people with multiple houses. Related to this, the global slosh of foreign capital looking to launder their money, or park their money in tangible assets.

* Perverse incentives in the US tax code. Stepped-up Cost Basis means that aging Baby Boomers are highly incentivized to never sell their homes. After their death, their beneficiaries receive a huge tax benefit.

* Many of the economically productive areas of the country have zoning laws which restrict new housing development, which cause scarcity, which drive up the value of existing houses for the benefit of existing homeowners.

* There has been almost no productivity increase in the construction industry in the last several decades. Due to their inefficiency, the industry is incentivized towards expensive, higher-profit houses, instead of producing higher volume, lower-cost houses.
Do you know if or who currently works toward achieving universal sentient rights? It resonates strongly with me - especially because it is more broad than just "humans".
Relevant and timely. Bravo!
If you still want to use a Lisp, consider using Racket. It comes with Drracket, which is an editor for the language which has a repl embedded in it. It has the standard cut, copy, paste shortcuts (though you can use Emacs key bindings in it) and is simple enough not to be overwhelming (like other more robust editors can be)
Bluetooth continues to be one of the most critically under-delivered standards, in my view. LC3, that this update discusses at the end, was announced January 2020. Over two years ago. There's still, to my knowledge, no devices that support it. None, not a one.

In general I feel like we only just got Bluetooth 5.0 devices available on computers. Bluetooth 4.0 or 4.2 has been frighteningly prevalent, until very very recently. Bluetooth 5 harkens back to mid 2016, Bluetooth 5.1 was announced January 2019, 5.2 in January 2020, 5.3 (you guessed it) 2021, but I'd wager you'd need to drop numerous significant figures below 1% to account for how many laptops (much less desktops) are sold today whose bluetooth is >5.0.

Truly one of the slowest, laggiest, least adoptable technologies on the planet. Really weird to me.

I can definitely accept some lag. LC3 is really using bluetooth-le, a very different scheme. At the same time, I see folks like zephyr-project already kind of making inroads into this future[1], in the open. A not small part of me thinks the way we do consumer devices is totally jank. That folks like PineBuds are living in the future, where we can compile our own OS'es for our peripherals. PineBuds[2] could, with a little zeal & push, become the first LC3 device on the planet. And they could, perhaps, unlike most other devices that'll be made in the next couple years, possibly support whatever comes next.

Shifting areas of interest a bit, but: another data-point in opening the future, the software Intel uses for their new PSE management engine just got open sourced[3]. It too is built on Zephyr.

On the positive-side, for PipeWire, incredibly sweet to see Hands-Free Profile get better. This is essentially the idea of a computer acting like a headset. This enables such vast additional degree of system flexibility, creates so many interesting situations. Phones, cars, other things are very limited in what they can do. But if we can wirelessly plug in a general purpose computer, make it act like audio system: we can do so much more. The old Nohands[4] stack is wildly out of date & unsupported. PipeWire just doing the thing is 100% super sweet as the world needs to be. In general, a more amorphous world where computers can act as hosts or devices is one I thing would be vastly empowering: software is soft, and so too should be hardware, when it can.

So you would recommend Optery? Some of the paid opt-out services seem to me to be essentially extortion schemes, want to make sure any service I use wouldn’t be like that.
It's even better to be correct after being corrected by yourself.
Sort of, but I was living in Asheville NC before this. It was absolutely much less expensive but it was still becoming legitimately expensive. No shortage of 1 and 2 million dollar houses.

And that's Appalachia.

I had looked at a farmhouse for sale. Bought for $250k in 2019. Probably spent $200k on a rehab. Selling for 1.4 million.

So yeah, I do acknowledge that I'm choosing an expensive area but it doesn't feel like that's the core of the issue.
> would not include football and basketball players

Naturally you wouldn't want to put professional leagues in the lurch because their billionaire owners can't scrape up the funds to run their own farm teams.
I have daily bluetooth issues on Windows. Someone decided it was a good idea to have bluetooth jabra speakers/microphones for our meetingrooms... It takes 5 minutes to do the pair/connect/set correct device dance... every. day.

My macbook can't even figure out that it should try to connect to my offce trackpad after I have had it connected to my home trackpad! Thankfully it has a built in trackpad that I can use to manually connect when the "automation" fails..
"Presumably, someone at the Department of Education plopped the pixel on the page in order to better target those ads, using the Pixel to better know who was visiting, and when."

The headline reads like Meta was doing something bad, but in reality someone at the DoE put a tracker on their page.

Clickbait headlines strike again.
I wish Arena had a mode for that. It sounds like a lot more fun than the modes they currently have. I’m still a beginner in MtG, would you say the way you described is easier than modern Magic?

Maybe, or maybe the incumbent products are massively subsidized.
I found it quiet unapproachable to find people i might want to interact with. Can you describe how one is supposed to discover who one wants to interact with?
> Definitely an issue with Netflix on Ubuntu. Enough that I prefer to “obtain” via other means the content I have paid access then watch it in mpv (where I must still manually introduce a video delay).

pavucontrol let's you introduce a delay per device (in Output Devices under "Advanced" for the specific device), which might allow you to use it with Netflix directly. Or at least I managed to get it working wonkily once and then went back to using mpv...
