> Why can't people pair and give each other at the moment feedback vs doing code review.

That was something we discussed at various points. We never tried it when I worked there.

> you had to explicitly mention 'security issues' which imply that you have a feeling that most of your pr comments were your subjective interpretation .

Aren't almost all code review comments? I can't think of a single one except ones that point out literal bugs. Most are "do it this way because I think it will be more maintainable" or "do it this way because that is how we do it here." In this case, I mentioned "security issues" because they were literal bugs that introduced new attack surfaces that didn't previously exist. When I read comments on my code, I make sure to read it without any inflection. Some people have really bizarre code review styles, and some are totally straightforward. Some people are lenient on whether or not there actually needs to be a change, while some people will not accept code until changes are made, no matter how little the change request is.

Knowing your reviewer is about as important as how you review code, which is why I suggested being consistent. If you're always straightforward, and then suddenly not, the reviewee is going to wonder if something is going on. Vice-versa, if you're suddenly straightforward, people are going to be offended or feel like you are taking something out on them. In my case, reviewing code within 3 minutes of waking up was a terrible idea and I have never done it since because I'm "grumpy-mc-grumpy-pants" for at least 10-15 minutes after waking up and having some coffee.

I feel like a lot of the conversation in this thread is about how to review code, but the relationship between the reviewee and the reviewer is more important than any of that and how you review code will affect that relationship whether you want it to or not.
Like to publish under the Apache 2.0 license when I can, because no one can predict the public or commercial use-cases 5 years from now. Also, I tend to look at software as being transitory in nature, and only the underlying algorithm reincarnates if proven useful (the GNU is likely immortal).

The shareware model of the 1980's stopped being a viable business plan a long time ago. Also, most recent Desktop Application utilities have been replaced by mobile app users (IRC became twitter, BBS became facebook, usenet forsale became ebay, email became webmail or telegram... and so on... and so on..)

The only time we tend to close software is for business reasons where IP release would cause market fragmentation and or sales degradation. i.e. a lesson the 187+ fart app publishers would never understand.

I don't care much what decisions random businesses make.

It has been my view for a long time that entrusting your infrastructure to the tender mercies of a firm like Amazon is reckless. Here we have a situation where the legal environment has changed; AWS hasn't changed to match; so those companies that chose to rely on a 3rd-party infrastructure provider appear to have made a mistake.

If I had been advising one of those companies, I would have advised them to bring critical infrastructure in-house. But there might have been other options, like using Europe-based infrastructure providers.

I've never been involved with budgets and so on. It's not my concern how much different solutions cost. I just think the principals of companies have a responsibility to avoid third-party risk - which is what you have, if you rely on a third-party for critical company infrastructure.

That's why I was able to persuade my employers to bring their email service in-house. It worked, and the bosses were pleased with the improved service and reliability. We also constructed our own in-house build and deployment train; that worked very nicely too.

Maybe the cost-benefits vary according to the type and size of business. I'm not a researcher, and I only know about the things I've looked into. But my guess is that AWS works well for companies that are after a quick buck (e.g. an IPO).
Unambiguous things can become ambiguous at later points. As soon as you add a second relation between the tables, what once was unambiguous now is, and because of something which may be entirely unrelated to the specifics of the original query.

This is where many conveniences that use implicit data run into problems. A small convenience now for the possibility of accidentally breaking because of mostly unrelated changes later is a poor trade off for anyone that wants to have stable and consistent software.

This is likely one of those cases where you're better off with tooling to help make writing the correct unambiguous code easier (or automated away) than introducing a feature which leads to less stable systems in some cases.

Edit: Along the lines of what you note at the end, I would rather see joins able to use named relations as defined in the schema. Of there's a relation from table movie to table actor specifically names roles in the schema, I would rather be able to join movie on roles and have actors joined correctly using that relation, and aliases to roles which I could then use. Then you're using features that are designed and stable and not implicit and subject to changing how or whether they function based on semi-unrelated changes.

That might look like: "from movie relate roles" which is equivalent to "from movie join actor roles on movie.id = roles.movie_id", but because actor.movie_id has a constraint in the schema named roles which restricts it to a movie.id already.
My understanding is that the US President (currently Biden) can unilaterally ban oil exports and that this would immediately drop US oil prices to $70-80/barrel and spike global oil prices by 30%+. I wonder how bad domestic gas prices would need to be before this happens because it definitely feels like it would be a permanent nail in the coffin of energy globalization.
People and governments need to realize that trying to make city living and non-city living the same is a losing proposition. Cities should not have an obligation to be car-accessible. It's unnatural for a place with thirty thousand people per square mile. It'd probably be better for everyone if personal vehicles were outright banned in all major cities, as long as it's possible to live in a city without ever leaving it and to live outside the city without ever entering it. Half the square footage of a street being taken up by cars parked on it is utterly perverse. I say that as someone who has never ridden a bus or subway and who would rather pull my tooth with a pair of pliers than set foot in a major city.
>A forced kidney transplant is an example of denying someone the right to decide about their own body. It's the exact same situation as forced pregnancy

It is not. Please see my post to the other person who responded to my comment.

>you're arguing that someone's personal freedom should be violated because of somebody else's religious superstition.

It is amazing how the first people to bring up religion are always the prochociers. There are millions of nonreligious prolifers, but you just attempt to smear them with accusations. Please don't assume the reasons people support or don't support various issues. It is arguing in bad faith and makes you look bad.

>And a good resource to learn about vaccines is Breitbart

Have I posted anything about vaccines from Brietbart before? I think you may be confusing me with somebody else? If you are trying to say Secular Prolife is equivalent to Brietbart than you haven't read them both.

>There are millions of anti-vaxers. Just because many people believe in silly things doesn't mean they are correct

What do you mean by correct? Are you suggesting that every nonreligious person must believe the same thing?

>Also, this issue isn't "supported by religions".

Sure it is.

>This issue is pretty much specific to one particular branch of Christianity,

Just factually untrue.

1. Catholic
2. Eastern Orthodox
3. Oriental Orthodox
4. Assyrian Church of the East
5. Ancient Church of the East
6. Some Protestant denominations
7. Mennonites

And huge amount more than that.

Even some groups that may or may not be Christians

1. Mormons
2. Jehovah's Witnesses

Now in terms of other religions there is some debate in them, but many of the followers in these think it is opposed to their religion:

1. Sikhism
2. Islam
3. Judaism

And more.

>the one most famous for raping children and for being so wrong they had to make own infallibility an official dogma. But again, I'm not going to teach you history to explain why Roman Catholic Church is a parody of Christianity

Please do not derail the conversation. There are over a billion Catholics so please cool it with the bigotry.

>same reason the question of why life begins doesn't matter to this discussion.

I agree why life begins is irrelevant to this conversation. When it begins is the only thing that matters.

>What does matter is you're condoning stripping people of their fundamental human rights.

That is rich coming from the person who supports stripping a human from it's fundamental right to not be killed.
It may depend on the author, as some articles in the publication are inconsistent with the characterization of “in-depth research.” Previously, the publication wrote about “Stanford’s War on Social Life,” but made some omissions that misrepresented some key facts used as evidence of Stanford’s supposed demise.[1]

Two key things pointed out by our fellow HN readers included the (1) failure to acknowledge the association of the defunct fraternity, wistfully characterized as emblematic of campus social life, with the Brock Turner rape; and (2) the mischaracterization of Lake Lagunita as a beloved campus waterfront neglected by Stanford, when it was in fact an artificial pond created by a dam that the municipality stopped servicing.[2]

These may or may not necessarily be important for a casual audience, but for a publication that presents itself in the self-appointed realm of “governance futurism” there is a lack of rigor and a palpable sense of linguistic license. Take it for what you will.

Ah yes, thanks for linking that. So there was a discussion about a conflict with `--verbose` at least; whether to go for the upper case `-V` or completely drop the version flag from the patch. But then:

"I do not care too deeply, and it is the most time efficient to just
take the last patch as-is."

Good lord, what a pragmatic maintainer! Burn them at the stakes!
Because it's not that hard to measure teacher quality. But once a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure. It gets gamed and manipulated. When it was just a measure, no one bothered to game it, so it wasn't that hard to tell who was good and who wasn't.
This is a fun soundbite, but it's completely arbitrary and meaningless. You could just as easily and accurately come up with something along the lines of "if a union causes its employer financial distress, it is a liability".
Ah yes, which is why the US was the only place to quickly develop effective COVID vaccines.

What do you take photos of? The mirrorless "replacement" for the 7D is the recently announced R7 [0].

The R7 does have a built-in intervalometer, if that's what you mean by taking continuous photos. The other interpretation of continuous photos is holding down the shutter release and taking photos as fast as it can.

Generally, newer cameras do better in low light. Autofocus in low light is improved in the current crop of mirrorless cameras vs DSLRs.

Single-family homes can get surprisingly dense, depending on how you move the numbers and sizes around.

But more importantly, all towns and most cities were at "suburban" densities years ago (check the "old towns" of most towns, etc) - the key was "travel to services" was limited by walking or sometimes subways, etc.

If instead of one Walmart every 30 miles you have smaller stores every 2-5 miles, suddenly density isn't as mandatory for livable cities.

Mixed usage and transit backbones are the key - you could design "pods" that are about two miles in diameter centered on train stations that would be entirely walkable/bikable - then you can even have the massive city centers.

People having cars isn't a problem if they don't use them for commuting, and some small changes in city design can lead to that.
Getting into "work mode" really helps. I did a similar thing during my Ph.D. studies - no reading email or news or gaming until lunch time, only work. After lunch, all options were open, but I then had work so swapped in that I kept on working.

Yes it does, that's a totally different situation. Edge chose to use Chromium as its engine, Microsoft takes part in its development, they are free to remove or add any component from it, and if ever they wanted to they would be free to fork it and drop it for another engine at any time. None of that is true for WebKit skins on iOS.

It would certainly screw over US allies but it wouldn't do that much good for domestic prices because domestic refineries aren't built to use light/sweet American oil. Domestic production would collapse as domestic oil sat unusable for months. What we need is taxes/regulations to force the building of refineries to process domestic crude.
I was curious about what legal theory they were using to enforce this. It appears that 5/7 of the counts are just false or misleading statements - CafePress claimed to have good security but didn't. Another is just tangentially related to security. The interesting one is Count III:

> As described in Paragraph 11, Respondents’ failure to employ reasonable data security measures to protect Personal Information caused or is likely to cause substantial injury to consumers that is not outweighed by countervailing benefits to consumers or competition and is not reasonably avoidable by consumers themselves. This practice is an unfair act or practice.

If I'm reading this correctly, it is saying that the FTC interprets poor security of user's data to be in violation the FTC act even outside of any promises given to the customer. That seems like a big stretch IMO.

Google had a chat app, then they created another chat app called "hangouts" and forced everyone to switch to it, and now they're doing it again. I don't understand the logic here.

The article doesn't:

"Instead of hiring staff, the Authority relied heavily on outside consultants. These consultants were well paid, with the primary consultant compensation for HSR at $427,000 per engineer, compared with the Authority’s in-house cost of $131,000 per engineer. This structure creates a principal-agent problem where they are incentivized to maximize their billable hours."
Honestly? How many always have an Android/iOS device in their pocket, they use it all day long, talking and texting with it, taking photos send to some cloud for backups etc, ... yes, the war is definitively lost, also because most choose not to really fight it.

People could and should change attitude but so far those who change are a so little minority to being just irrelevant at social scale.

It does not even matter that some or many aspects of surveillance capitalism fails partially or substantially, once you create the surveillance infra some parts will be surely failure but the overall architecture pay back anyway those who control it. Take a look at China...

My favorite macro camera of all time was the Nikon Coolpix 995, you could focus on things 2cm from the lens! I made a cardboard viewing tube with some rubber bands to put over the screen so I could see in the daytime. I took soooooo many pictures of Chicory and Morning Glory with that thing.

I wore out my Nikon D40 (not the D40x), the shutter lasted about 29,000 photos.

I really like my Nikon D5100 DSLR, but haven't been able to use it in a while due to health constraints.

The most constraining camera to have fun with is one of those little 2AA powered Nikon zoom cameras for about $100. They shoot video, megapixel images, and record to SD cards. You can probably pick one up for almost nothing these days, used.

> the competency of Amazon or Google to build SPAs well

Given how frequently the YouTube SPA screws up back button behavior, I don't know if Google deserves to be in the competent bucket.

That's because in modern software design, crashing is preferred to continuing to read invalid data, which has no upper limit on the amount of possible permanent damage it could cause. Would you rather have your game crash, or corrupt your 100-hour savegame? Crashing is the more elegant solution to this type of error, and a large percentage of language design after C++ went into turning undefined-behavior scenarios into crash scenarios.

Its not immediately obvious to me why this would not fall afoul of regulating interstate commerce being left to the federal government.
