>> And unfortunately at the time, I was not very skilled at playing politics and so I was a little bit more blunt about this than I should have been

If you were to handle it today, how would you do it differently? Any advice to an engineer to learn the art of selling more powerful tech against a lesser one when the latter is more popular?
Not denouncing, just answering a loaded question by putting my finger in the barrel.

I think we can talk about our concerns in a realistic way without resorting to baseless speculation. It's fair to question whether the CDC should be using this data.

The thing about Tuskegee is that it wasn't a conspiracy. It started in 1932, in a time when the majority of Americans probably would have supported it if they knew about it. That doesn't make it OK, but it does make it a poor example of a conspiracy.

Systems and incentives are much better predictors of behavior.

> To pass a prop to a component in a modular way, you have to pass a string attribute

Is this actually how people pass props with Web Components? I've only used web components for a few years but I've always created a new instance of the class and I pass props using the constructor like:

`${new ExampleComponent(props)}`

Then in the constructor it's just this.state = {...this.state, ...props}

Quite true. Race is a useless and imprecise term and it’s a pity you felt the need to start talking about it. The clustering of traits among human ancestry population groups and the reasons for that don’t need that baggage.

Effectively leaving it at home? Once you unwrap it at your destination, haven't you not only given up your travel history (maybe not to an intermediate location), but also flagged yourself as someone that is hiding something?

I guess my point is, you can't hide yourself from the government this way. From some random third party, sure.
This is so completely false it borders on offensive.

"Technical enough to write PHP" is similar to "technical enough to drive a car," "technical enough to write formulas in Excel," "technical enough to edit Wikipedia," or "technical enough to write a Hypercard stack".

Genes run in families, not villages. How are the traits spreading across the entire population in that 1000 years enough to make the "large difference" instead of being averaged out again? Existing cases of that are founder effects or mating with someone truly different like a Denisovan[0].

More importantly this knowledge would be useless if you found it, because the only reason to know things is to make predictions, and this doesn't let you predict anything about the next generation. We're in modernity now and they can just move somewhere else.

> If all you need is a couple of basic forms and some basic interaction, you can do it all with vanilla JS but let's not kid ourselves

This is a classic red-herring argument from developers who have not built anything complex with vanilla js. You can build rich interactions with or without a framework, you’re just making different trade-offs (conventions, learning curve, flexibility, tooling).

There is a much larger amount of man-hours put into browser APIs, and web components is one of them. I don’t see anything wrong or that warrants a “you’re wasting your time” warning in his argument. And note, he’s talking about the chrome dev tools everyone including the react team use daily, not “basic forms”.
Are you rethinking that perspective in light of how the valuable distinction might have less to do with big vs small capitalist and more something to do with the workers
Those horrors in history were created through the combination of good intentions (also integral to the best of human history), and the dehumanization of subgroups. What exactly do you fear from the CDC, and who do you fear they will do it to? Not just a challenge, a genuine question.

In equity markets, risk is measured in volatility or the standard deviation of return. By definition a short and long position of an equity has the same volatility or standard deviation of returns.
You may be using the term risk colloquially, but your understanding of leverage under a short sale is also misguided.
If you short a stock and have cash to cover, you don’t need leverage.
If you short a stock and the position is in the black, you don’t need leverage.
You only need leverage if your short position is in the net negative. Yes, you may have to pay borrowing costs for the stock, but that’s just normally known as transaction costs.
Until you require leverage to keep the short position open when it’s net negative or you used the cash proceeds, you are not leveraged.

If your goal is to manage the maximum loss from a short position, it’s much easier to short the stock and buy a protective put. This gives you perfect exposure to your bet, while allowing you to manage your loss exactly.
As an embedded developer I have different view. Linux is everywhere. I've been working within nothing but embedded Linux constantly since 2005.

I regularly install debugging tools onto target devices (strace, tcpdump, ...) even though those don't go into a production image.

Currently, I'm using pw on an embedded system, for capturing detailed traces from an application. It's very useful because it decouples the rate of the traces from the serial port, while still letting me get the info I need out of it.

The stripped executable is tiny: 20 kilobytes. It's so small I'm stashing it in a configuration flash partition which survives re-flashes of the kernel and filesystem, so I have the utility there no matter which image I load onto the target.

>It's proven in the sense that there is freedom to choose to write a native desktop client, and yet nobody does it anymore

There’s factors occluding this though I think-the JS/web stack has had millions of dollars of investment thrown at it by parties with a vested interest in seeing it succeed, so a lot of UX issues and friction points have been smoothed over as much as possible.

The wider native UI ecosystem hasn’t had the same investment, so I’m not surprised it’s superficially “easier” for devs to thrash out a UI with web tooling. Doesn’t mean the resulting application is actually any better though.

I've used `look` for years when I'm not sure how to spell some obscure word and I'm in a context where there isn't a built-in spellchecker (e.g. editing source code). I was today years old when I learned that looking up words from the system dictionary is just the convenient default and you can use it to search lines from any file.

> how do they decide what's just too risky

The question that's asked is "would XYZ claim be covered under the terms of our current policy". Usually the best answer I've been able to get is "probably so". The unique challenge in the case of an intentionally planned dangerous stunt is that most such policies are intended to cover "claims of negligence related accidental liability."

If you planned to do something you knew had a high likelihood of being dangerous, that's not an "accident." Many such policies have specific limitations, stipulations and requirements to remain in force. For example, purchasing a liability insurance rider to cover a large corporate party may have limitations like limiting the number of people, stipulations like all the bartenders must have training on not serving inebriated guests and requirements such as having hired paramedics present.

When you file a large claim on such an insurance policy, they will check that you were in full compliance with all the policy requirements before paying out. Source: I know an attorney who works in a law firm specializing in policy holders suing their own insurance company when they refuse a claim. I'm sure there are good insurance companies and bad but based on the stories I've heard you definitely want to make sure you're in compliance under any policy you're substantially relying on.

Yes, but the question then becomes, is it more fun and exciting to use those things, or was it more fun and exciting to build the underlying technologies and products?
Corporate "celebrations" are anything but. They are just posturing and virtue signalling. Only on groups of teams in high-trust situations (e.g., a small military unit winning a tough battle) will you experience real celebrations. They won't even have to be planned; they'll just happen!
Is there actually ways to use GPS data that is anonymous? Like could there be zero knowledge proofs to draw correlations without revealing actual location data? We've clearly seen that aggregating data is not enough. But I'm wondering if there is actually a form of strong anonymity that is possible when dealing with GPS data. To me GPS data seems the most concerning with user tracking.

What's there to optimize? If you don't use state, it doesn't rerender. If you click a button to add another element for example, it does exactly that. If you have a reactive variable in your HTML and update it it rerenders that part only. What's there to optimize further?
This looks remarkably nice. Is there a singular architect sort of engineer driving the vision for Java?
Agreed. What a sad state of affairs though. All these companies that aspire to disrupt but that spirit somehow doesn't apply to their own management. The irony is quite spectacular. I think your right that any meaningful change will likely come from some successful startups(s.) What a great way differentiator that will be for any startup who actually thinks differently and markets themselves as such as a means to attract talent.

> Many, if not most, human populations spent the majority of their existence with some kind of arranged marriage system.

We’re only confident agriculture has existed for ~5,000 years. Hunter gatherers don’t have the kinds of complex societies that can do organized coercion in a sustained way over generations. Even if you restrict yourself to post agriculture arranged marriage is far from universal and there’s no evidence I’m aware of of a sustained breeding programme selecting for some trait among humans.

Another thing about the BEAM that may resonate for you is the abstract syntax tree (AST) for the BEAM is very reminiscent of Lisp. Some people call Elixir which is a popular reworking of Erlang which also runs on the BEAM a secret Lisp as it gives direct access to the AST via macros.

"peer-reviewed long term study"

This is not a silver bullet, even for recently published Nature/Science papers. You need to convince 3-4 people to get your paper published in the end. For many controversial papers, there is a lot of back and forth about the validity of the results (e.g., "Matters Arising" in Nature).

The biggest flaw of this study is relying on subjective reports by the owners. Almost all dog owners I know are used to playing down the severity of their dog's aggressiveness.
I've tried both Jellyfin and Emby (as well as kodi), they're all 2nd rate compared to Plex. Plex is just such a polished experience with very few bugs compared to the other offerings.

Having said that, if you need something that's not built into Plex, there is little you can do to add it, that's where kodi etc shines, they have some massive catalogs of third party add ons.

If you want to ban pitbulls, look at the others in the study about risk rates by breed. If you ban pitbulls they'll likely be replaced by some of these and they would need to be banned as well. Of course, in the name of the environment we could ban dog ownership altogether making this a moot discussion, right?

"Number of different breeds with similar risk rates for dog bite-related fatalities (DBRFs) including: Malamutes, Chow Chows, Saint Bernards, Huskies, Great Danes, Rottweilers, Doberman Pinschers, Mastiffs, Pitbull-Type dogs, Akitas, German Shepherds, and Bulldogs."

This describes every AdTech firm to a T, except that you’ve decided to direct your ire at a public health agency instead of them. The entire point of commercial advertising is to nudge your purchasing behavior (what they’ll blithely refer to as “lifestyle”); the CDC has no such motive.

It truthful & honest reflection, in 99.99% of cases. The violence is not inherent to Twitter, or even imo amplified much. We just have a better tap on truth & perspective, a better way to see what is. And to collect review, to see a bigger reflection, to understand impact.

I do think there needs to be a calming, that there's no effective protest against inciteful & clickbaitish content. But the way on is through, is collecting & aggregating counterfeedback, is increasing the flow of information & starting to care about some counterweighting, registering when stuff is a a bit too far or far too far, new depths of calibration.

Nice tool! One common problem I have with SQLite is the DDL to alter tables is quite limited and the performance is not super. I actually opened https://sqlite.org/forum/forumpost/8b4e95fd55 a few days ago because it is currently a pain to drop a column that has a foreign key constraint.

Concerning performances, I am dealing with sqlite databases of a couple GB (5-20) and dropping a column can easily take 15-20m plus it doubles the size of the table on disk. If someone has tips on how to improve that I am interested!
