Communism was obviously bullshit to me based on just a basic knowledge of human nature. It didn't take much life experience to figure that out, and reading a few history books only confirmed what already seemed obvious. Thinking deeply about nonsense is a total waste of time; I had better things to do. The problems were real enough, but Communism has never been a solution to anything. If young people saw it as a solution then I have to assume they were just too trusting and naively believed the lies that ambitious idealogues sold them.

This post seems overly dramatic and I fail to see much "in-fighting". Yes, the various RSS specifications have left some important details ambiguous (particularly text vs HTML in various places and the meaning of multiple enclosures).

Atom fixes these and I don't see many people fighting about it. Support for both RSS 2 and Atom are widespread.

TL:DR if you are publishing use Atom (if you already publish with RSS 2 it probably isn't worth switching), if you are consuming support Atom, RSS 2 and best effort support for whatever else.

I have a blog post in draft about vest practices for publishing a feed but really there isn't much trouble here. Really the biggest "problem" is that the fact that it is the term "RSS Feed" makes newcomers not realize that Atom is a well supported format and the recommended one.
This is absolutely not true. “Investor” properties account for about 18% of secondary home sales. 90% of those sales are to individuals with 1-4 properties. The remaining 10% of investor sales, ~2% of the total, is ALL of the professional invesotr purchases. Its billions of dollars, in a trillion dollar market.
When I wrote Ruby/Javascript, I remember needing to write unit tests that verified types of input/output variables.

When I write in dynamically typed language I never write tests like that. I'm more familiar with static than dynamic, but are experts really doing that kind of thing?

> No one said it "justified" the theft.

Nor did I say that anyone said that it "justified" the theft. What I said was that that line of argumentation "sounds like an a posteriori justification for stealing".
Surely in the common case this can be optimized away??? Could you add some detail?
The biggest attack is persistent login tokens that are stored on a device, eg. Discord has an issue with malware (disguised as DMs from random people asking "do you want to try out a beta for my game") that steals the login token from appdata, using it to purchase a bunch of gifted nitro and perpetuate the scam via that user's account.
You seem to be confusing descriptive for normative.

They're stating a fact, not asserting the fact justifies some behavior.

Valgrind didn't exist then. (Next you're going to say ASan and UBSan. Those didn't exist either.) They (he?) could have run GDB and disassembled the code around the crashing instruction and verified that the machine code there didn't make any fucking sense. But that implies they knew assembly language well enough to recognize when their compiler was spewing nonsense, which is a couple of steps above "can read working assembly emitted by the compiler" or even "can write applications in assembly language".

Even with Valgrind it can be tough to distinguish whether your output code is wrong because of a bug in the compiler or because your code was just wrong. There was a change to GCC a few years back that introduced security holes into the FreeBSD and NetBSD kernel because it just threw away code that would only be invoked in "undefined behavior" scenarios. Signed integer overflow I think.
One problem with NFTs is that it's harder for them to be stolen. And once lost, they can never be recovered.
I'm surprised. I only know the US and the UK, but in the UK it can go down as far as a 5% deposit. Honestly US deposit requirements seem high.
> That sounds like an a posteriori justification for stealing, like saying "see, that building ended up being bombed, so it's a good thing I stole all these Ukrainian paintings from the country last year"

There's a difference between justification and acknowledgement. Just because people are able to acknowledge that specific artifacts only exist because they were stolen, does not mean that they believe the original theft was "right or reasonable."

No. Google's power to lock people out of their website is already here with the prevalence of 'Sign in with Google'.

FIDO is unrelated; it works by having the browser/device itself sync the virtual security keys[0], much in the same way they sync passwords currently. That's the only thing changing here, giving people the choice (and encouraging them) to sign in via "what you have" instead of "what you know".

I assume you ask this question because you feel you're spending too much time on screens versus doing something else. I have two thoughts:

1) What is it you wish you were doing instead? Would you rather do that than looking at your screen? If so, it's a simple matter of prioritization. Find the will power to put down your screen and go do what you want. Once you start feeling the reward of that activity, it will get easier over time to prioritize that.

2) Are you addicted to your screen? Like you can't put your phone down for 30 seconds. If so, this might be a classic addiction. Addiction to drugs, alcohol, or even screens is about escaping from your pain. Seriously consider what happens in your mind. If you want to try an experiment, try doing nothing for 30 minutes and see where your brain goes. If something concerning comes up here, consider seeking help from a therapist. I'm glad to chat with you as well.

you can buy a property everywhere in EU with a 20%.
Also, property taxes in EU are generally lower than US.

I keep saying that americans, pay lots of taxes, they are simply not aware of it.
The main thing I use mygov for is doing my tax, and it works fine.
Given all the complaints I see here about the lack of a US government online tax app, we seem to be doing better in that regard, although I imagine the US tax landscape is much more complex.

Could it be that maybe peoples work is under valued relative to the value they help create?
That's at least two catastrophic errors: Incorrect SAN configuration and missing backups.

PS: I worked at another department where they similarly misconfigured a SAN and made it highly vulnerable to multi-week outages due to even a single failed drive. I insisted they fix it, and my reward for this was seething hatred.

"You're just making us do extra work!"

"It's not a problem right now!"

"We have other priorities!"

Etc...

They literally refused to touch anything that's not on fire. Merely smouldering is "fine".

Developers are usually not the ones who are making decisions like this.

The manager doesn't want that annoying autozoom. The designer doesn't want to change the font size or page layout. There are also edge cases where something that was supposed to be 16px ends up being slightly smaller because of unit conversion and Safari zooms anyway. The developer, tired of this bullshit, googles a solution to satisfy everyone.

Fortunately, there's yet another workaround for developers stuck in this situation. Drop "maximum-scale=1", but keep "user-scalable=no" in the meta viewport tag. Safari will ignore the directive and allow the user to zoom freely, but this somehow disables zooming on inputs. Makes sense, huh?

One browser implementing a non-standard feature that doesn't even work consistently eventually hurts everyone, including the developer and the user. Just blaming the developer misses the larger problem.

Something is broken. Homes that wound have been listed at $1,000,000 in 2019 are going for $1.750,000 today. Interest rates going up should cool it off but I fear it will break much of the rest of the economy. There was a massive mismatch in executive policy and fed policy and here we are.

Its because they changed the definition of m2 in may 2020 not because anything fundamentally changed - not sure why people keep thinking this.

>Beginning May 2020, M2 consists of M1 plus (1) small-denomination time deposits (time deposits in amounts of less than $100,000) less IRA and Keogh balances at depository institutions; and (2) balances in retail MMFs less IRA and Keogh balances at MMFs. Seasonally adjusted M2 is constructed by summing savings deposits (before May 2020), small-denomination time deposits, and retail MMFs, each seasonally adjusted separately, and adding this result to seasonally adjusted M1.

Based on what the OP wrote, Georgia Tech's OMSCS program would be worthwhile, especially if they are interested in the systems track. The UT Austin program is also modeled on GA Tech's program and looks especially good for its theoretical ML courses.

OMSCS has a lot of flexibility in being able to attenuate your course load, gives 6 years to complete the degree, and your peers are mostly working professionals. That's a big advantage of online-first programs.
> Just because people are able to acknowledge that specific artifacts only exist because they were stolen, does not mean that they believe the original theft was "right or reasonable."

I mean...sure, but then what's the point of this facile acknowledgement? Yeah, if you hadn't burglarized my house yesterday, all my things would have burned up in the fire that happened there today. That's all well and good, except you still stole my shit. The fact that you inadvertently saved it from being burned is irrelevant to the action of the theft.
Shameless plug, but I used mermaid.js to create a pom visualizer maven plugin [0] and it was honestly pretty great.

Like some of the other comments say (and after working with it quite a bit) it definitely has its warts. It's not super well documented, it's not as feature rich as I'd like, and the syntax can be a little wonky. All that said, it "just works" for creating simple visualizations and fit my use case near perfectly.

Australia Post IT has it's problems, but I don't think it's really much worse then similar sized private sector IT, the banks are a nightmare.
That is what they are saying though - people are actually buying the assets? All anecdotes I have seen recently say that houses go off market very quickly.
The experience of many reporting security issues to the Australian government is to be harassed, so I'm sure many such issues have been picked up by people and not reported out of fear or just not being willing to deal with the drama. One wonders how much this applies even to the developers.

You are unfairly comparing ancient C with modern rust - Try comparing modern C with modern rust to avoid making a straw man argument. Like I said, I don't even disagree, I still think you are just doing everyone a disservice with this line of reasoning.

He said if he had used rust - I am saying if he had used C when rust was available 1. The bug would have been fixed. 2. He could have used valgrind. Modern C also has something called ubsan, and another thing called frama-C.

These tools may be inferior to what rust has, but ignoring they exist or comparing 10+ year old C with modern rust is a bad faith argument.

> I need to trust the hardware.

With your password manager, you're trusting a lot more: the software of the OS and kernel, the software of the browser and its dependencies, the software of your password generator and your password storage. You also have to hope the developers and administrators of the website you're signing in to aren't storing your passwords in plain text (and I don't just mean in the database - overly-aggressive APM/logging might be storing POST request data in a log stream somewhere).

The only attack that's an issue for both passwords and security key-based sign-in is targeted attacks against a website, where they use your browser to execute malicious API calls to the website after you've signed in regularly.

> You'd have to be like legitimately autistic or something to not see that, and at that point, "/s" is just a drop in a bucket.

I read up to this point thinking you’re being overly pedantic about the specific use of a sarc mark and overly dismissive of the benefit of intent-clarifying hints in text. All the while thinking “I’m going to comment about how much I value intent-clarifying hints in text… and then I have to decide whether I want to mention I’m autistic, and prepare for all of the ways I might be misconstrued or dismissed further.”

So here we are, you’ve saved me the trouble of making that decision. I personally very much appreciate when people signal intent when their meaning can be ambiguous. It doesn’t always feel necessary for me, but it’s never once felt like it taken away from something I otherwise understood as obvious.

My take, which is much cooler than it was when I was gathering thoughts leading up to this but still mildly hot is: what harm does it do to you if someone voluntarily makes something more accessible to someone who’s not you? If you already grokked /s from a sarcastic remark, it’s a tiny bit of information you can scroll past. I understand not explicitly recognizing and endorsing how it might benefit autistic readers, but explicitly rejecting it because it might is baffling.

If google caches it quickly, it'd be viewable for a long time after the tokens have expired?
It's a glib fact (and in fact, not even a fact as you by definition cannot assert something that didn't happen as a fact) that detracts from the theft.

But sure, yes, if they had not been stolen, certain items may have been destroyed. OK. And, so what, what's your point beyond this trite truism?
We lack space in the few urban areas people want to live in. If people were flexible about where they wanted to live, you’d think that the cheap land/lightly zoned places would prosper, but they don’t.
> Also I’ve heard that Google automatically fails people who use regex in interviews,

Hmm... I don't remember that, and I conducted over 100 interviews back when I was at Google. A blanket failure for using a regex sounds like it's missing some nuance. But, maybe that was before or after my time.

I wouldn't be surprised if they start out with some interview questions that are easy to implement as regexes, but then gradually make the question harder and more general, where a pushdown automaton is necessary for a general correct solution, and fail people who either don't get a correct answer or end up implementing a pushdown automaton by dynamically generating larger and larger regexes.

Started running through the entire dictionary in batches of 500 words to see if each batch of 500 triggered the behavior, then binary search within the batch to find the problem word(s). Got bored partway through D.

Edit: Got unbored. Discovered that "Firstly", "Secondly", "Thirdly", and "Fourthly" trigger the bug, but "Fifthly" and above do not.

Edit 2: The first word can actually be any of the "problem" words -- "Also. And. And. And. And." also has the issue.
Agreed - alphabetical is the one ordering that everyone knows, whereas importance or concentricity or whatever require memorising or looking up.

Ordering the properties at all probably isn't hugely important but if some declaration has 15+ properties, I like that I can zero in on the one I'm looking for rather than scanning each property or having to Ctrl+F to find what I'm looking for.

I expect it would backfire quickly, as people notice their attempts at language modification and this rapidly becomes controversial in itself.

Sort of similar to the uproar over using purportedly gender-neutral language to discuss women's reproductive issues, as we've seen recently in discussions on Roe v. Wade - women being referred to as "birthing bodies", "pregnant people" and suchlike. Which of course many find to be offensively dehumanizing or an example of female erasure.
What the Hell Is Going on at the Washington Post
Where I live a house across the street that was estimated at $800K just sold for $1.3M. Our house went up 25% in 6 months. There's not enough inventory in good low crime areas. Even in less safe places we see close to zero houses for sale, and if one appears, it's sold in a week. And there won't be inventory any time soon, because residents don't want tall buildings here.

10% drop - yeah, good luck, noone will notice that.
