So apparently travelers have no legal obligation to provide their passcodes to the officers. Yet,

"If a traveller exercises their right to refuse to provide a passcode, their device can be taken from the border and given to the ABF's digital forensic team for examination."

So the alternative is not having access to your phone for at least 14 days. Losing access to your phone today is huge.. no 2FA codes means you're probably locked out of many services even on a PC. Not to mention this forensics team has access to software that can break smartphone security.

So there is effectively 0 choice. If they want to search your phone, they WILL search it.

Who says they aren't? The people I've known working in the arts very often have multiple jobs, even if one of them is notionally “full time”, usually at least one of the jobs is a personal business. Performers very often are tutors/teachers of the same kind of performance.

The "big desktop" concept always felt a little weird to me-- derived from the era where we people freaking out about the license status of KDE/Qt and using that to justify the entire GNOME ecosystem.

It's completely unlike the traditional Unix/X11 model-- here's an entire suite of toolkits and software, and you can pick best-of-breed. If you want to style it all to look similar, tooling exists. If you want your word processor to follow GTK conventions and your web browser to look like Motif, more power to you.

I feel like the original "desktop" model was to provide a basic subset of software with a consistent look and feel-- more or less getting you to feature-parity with the pack-in software in a Windows 95 install. It's realistically the upper bound on what can be offered.

If you go bigger-- as GNOME is doing by hitting the windowing infrastructure itself-- you're asking to support and rebuild the entire world in your image. You also create a hostility with the rest of the universe. I've tended to avoid GNOME/KDE related utilities because I don't want to turn "oh, here's one cool package I want" into 45 minutes of pulling an entire desktop environment down to support it. And that's with abundant resources to spare-- if I was fitting stuff on a first-generation Raspberry Pi with a tiny storage card, it's a complete showstopper.

> Congress eventually approved a scaled-down version of the Grand Tour, initially called Mariner Jupiter-Saturn 1977, or MJS 77. Two spacecraft were to be sent to just two planets. Nevertheless, NASA's engineers went about designing, somewhat surreptitiously, vehicles capable of withstanding the rigors of a much longer mission. They hoped that once the twin probes proved themselves, their itinerary would be extended to Uranus, Neptune, and beyond.

> “Four years—that was the prime mission,” says Suzanne Dodd, who, after a 20-year hiatus from the Voyager team, returned in 2010 as the project manager. “But if an engineer had a choice to put in a part that was 10 percent more expensive but wasn't something that was needed for a four-year mission, they just went ahead and did that. And they wouldn't necessarily tell management.” The fact that the scientists were able to build two spacecraft, and that both are still working, is even more remarkable, she adds.

Awesome! Did you consider compiling to WebAssembly and making it a webapp?
Data Science is a poor term (unfortunately, the right one, statistics or statistical modeling, was deemed to be "unsexy"), but the expertise is certainly very relevant in today's data-driven businesses. Think predictions, forecasting, clustering, A/B experiments, recommender systems. Yes, some parts of what's commonly called Data Science can also be called Machine Learning, then maybe Deep Learning can be called AI, and in the end it seems that whatever choice we make with definitions, it is largely a mess anyway. And, on the top of that, the definitions are situational.

There is certainly a lot of busy work in DS like there is a lot of busy work in any non-critical pockets of operations, software engineering included.

I don't know what "over-optimization" means. If it means that, for instance, that the accuracy provided by the models is greater than the business needs, sometimes that's true and I agree. But are other parts of the business at fault for not being, broadly speaking, responsive enough or it is an "over-optimization" problem?

Externalities is a concept in economic theory. It shows how net negative behaviour occurs, even when all actors act perfectly rational and have perfect information (while optimizing for their own gain). Bad software does simply not map to this concept in the same way environmental damage does. In your example people use bad software, against their interest, despite better alternatives.

I remember in 1990 IBM sponsored a small 370 for our university. I fiddled weeks to get curly braces to work correctly. We were all used to work with Sun workstations or at most VAXen at the time. It was unbelievable how complicated this was in the IBM world. They were still living in the world of full-time machine operators. My colleagues were glad I did it, my professor who had not programmed for years and was moving in higher spheres was not impressed I had spent so much time on it when he learned about it later.

> It is my understanding that currently you're allowed to manufacture a completely new chemical and put it into your product with essentially no testing of the long term effect of that compound.

Pretty much. There's also a fairly long history of a compound being found to be harmful and banned, only for industry to come up with a very similar compound to replace it, but since it's not the same compound the previous ban doesn't affect it. Then after some time the new compound is found to be harmful as well, rinse and repeat.

The counter-argument is that requiring each chemical to be extensively studied before it can be taken into use would drastically slow down the rate of innovation.

So to an extent there's a conflict between safety and innovation. But of course it's not black and white, and I think there's good reasons to turn the lever more towards the safety end.
I do not think it is fair to complain about regulated banking when you yourself deliberately do stuff with crypto. Even more so when you mention that this particular institution was helpful with resolution out of the hole you dug yourself into.

In fact, CBTC in Japan is mostly planned for rural line with infrequent service so the amount of infrastructure (track circuit, etc) are reduced

> Silicon Valley FAANG engineers are paying almost 10% more in income tax than those in states like Washington or Texas without an income tax. So why did Silicon Valley grow up here rather than in those other states? At least in part it was the enormous public investment by the Department of Defense during the Cold War.

Prior to the 2018 Trump tax changes, state income tax was deductable on federal taxes, with the only limit being AMT, so the effective tax rate was significantly smaller than federal bracket + state bracket. Now, the limit of deductability is so low, it's almost meaningless. I don't know that silicon valley is tax averse enough to move away though.
The use of the category mental disorder is dated; disorders often have mental components but since the body has no clear separation of the brain and body, it's falling out of use. Also, it wouldn't be the first time a mental disorder turned into a 'regular' disorder, or that is was more of a stigma than an actual diagnosis. Which is why I think find it an interesting option.

As I said, the type of symptoms is broad, so it's unlikely to be one thing. But, I do believe medicine is slowly getting more serious about analyzing also the not clearly apparent symptoms.

> If you know of any resources on this I'd love to read them.

I don't really know of anyone who would write about this. Part of it is predicting human behavior, and the rest of it is observation.

For example, users make a lot of mistakes. They get part of an order wrong, and sometimes they don't realize it until the restaurant has begun making the order.

How do you handle it? If the user can just cancel the order, the restaurant is losing money for a potentially fixable mistake. If the user can edit the order, how is that communicated to the restaurant?

Ordering systems are bidirectional. Both words (what the user has ordered) and money are moving back and forth even after the transaction is complete. What happens if a user does a charge-back? What happens if a user is unhappy and wants a partial refund?

It's just not something a beginner could accomplish in a reasonable amount of time. It would even take an expert quite a while to build it all out, even if she had it 100% architected in her head.

> clicking and dragging on squarespace isnt a marketable skill, so I'd rather avoid that

I agree, but that's a reason to follow a more traditional career path (working as a junior developer at a place that will teach you) rather than allowing a business to roll the dice on an experiment. It's honestly not really ethical. I've cleaned up messes made by beginners, and I've also encountered messes that were bad enough that no one could clean them up.

It's not unlike an unlicensed contractor telling someone they can build something they've never built before. If you do it, you're taking advantage of their trust and ignorance, especially because there are tons of alternatives.

> Tracks in most of the world's train stations are numbered starting from Track 1

In France sometimes tracks aren't numbered but lettered. Sometimes they're both - e.g. the same train station can have tracks A, B, 1, 2, 3, 4 ( e.g. Avignon TGV, where 1 and 4 are for stopping high speed trains, 2,3 are for passing through high speed trains, and A(maybe also B, don't remember) is a separate track terminating at that station for the commuter rail link to Avignon's main railway station). Sometimes there are weird likes like only two tracks, one is 1bis, the other A. Or 1 and 1bis. Usually it's related to the historical evolution of the train station ( e.g. in the 1/1bis case it was a single track station which was expanded).
Why should I care what Numpy is written in? All I see is Python.
This incredibly powerful facility is also available in C++20 with coroutines. 'yield return' is written as 'co_yield'. Also since "iterator" means something else in C++, this special usage of coroutines is called a "generator".

'co_yield' makes iterators/generators super easy to write as shown in this article. But also it enables great abstraction/encapsulation for where you want to provide an interface allowing callers to iterate over elements, without exposing the underlying container type.

(Note that 'std::generator' is not yet officially standardized, but with a little work we're using Microsoft's 'std::experimental::generator' across platforms, compiling with clang and gcc. Alternatively, I hear the cppcoro library is pretty great.)
It's biased, but it's also proof that the numbers are far from the six-nines values the GP was referring to. They sell about 10K Taycans a year in North America, so there are likely around 20K on the road.

OK. This is a good article. But the title of the blog post is misleading. The author is talking about the privatized internet as in the infrastructure of the internet that is privatized. Not individual business privatization.

Remember the Internet Society planning to sell .org? - https://www.theregister.com/2019/11/20/org_registry_sale_sha.... ICANN and Internet Society has been under the spotlight for shitty behavior since a very long time.

W3C is also heavily lobbied by companies like Google for instance is abusing it's browser market share against to make the internet less private. Then there is Manifest v3 - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1nPu6Wy4LWR66EFLeYInl3Nzz....

This article is about things like that. The infrastructure privatization and lobbying. Not individual business privatization.
