Let me restate this how I view what you've stated: your position is that because Facebook has a Terms of Service that may define something that is not illegal - means that one must abide by it? Also... Facebook/Meta/Zuckerberg have lied over and over and over very publicly to get their way or to give themselves an advantage: by giving themselves unfettered and unwarranted access to data that they profit from by their own fast and loose rules.

If Facebook/Meta/Zuckerberg are OK with lying, stealing and cheating - then why should anyone leveraging their online properties need to abide? Until they're held accountable under broader rules I see no reason the consumption side can't bend them as well. And you may argue "this isn't how it works" but we all know this isn't how Facebook/Meta/Zuckerberg operate. They operate under the premise of: do whatever makes us money because breaking the rules is the cost of doing business. So, no - they don't get to spew propaganda to the advantage of their business under the guise of protecting users. That is complete and utter bullshit.
I find it conspicuous that the poster doesn't speak definitively about either their attitude or their knowledge. What did they study in college? What domains did they try to start businesses in?

But also, putting oneself through higher education later in life takes some grit and perseverance. Having started "a few companies" demonstrates some real willingness to take risks, and a continuing entrepreneurial drive. This whole conversation shows some amount of introspection, self-knowledge, and a desire to learn and grow. Is that not the right attitude?
I was fortunate to try Magic Leap at Sundance in 2019. Super cool demo, but way too low resolution and limited field of view. I’d guess we’ll see a resurgence of AR in the near/medium term now that VR headsets have improved.

No, it's about representation of information in a system, as your own Wikipedia link states right up at the top of the second paragraph. Code and data are both forms in which information may be represented ina a system.

And what software will that burner or otherwise locked down phone run?

It's not going to be a flip phone, it's going to be a iOS or Android device specially provisioned by the company's IT department for use in environments like these.

You can't get anything done on a flip phone, you can barely operate in China without WeChat/AliPay.

It wouldn't be very difficult to provision an iOS device with limited connectivity to proprietary information while still maintaining necessary operational communication and productivity. The idea here isn't to just flip Lockdown Mode on and pray that all the secret stuff on your phone doesn't get hacked, the idea is to use it as one tool of many to reduce your blast radius.

Sorry to pick up on your specific examples, but I don't know why you are classifying alcohol deaths as under-estimated and abortions as over-estimated(?).

For the record, the National Center for Drug Abuse Statistics reports there are about 95,000 alcohol-related deaths in the United States annually[0], while the CDC reports over 600,000 abortions per year.[1]

It's true that someone who reads PR/marketing material is more likely to die from being hit by a drunk driver than by being aborted, but I don't think that's the point you're trying to make.

What they are doing is giving users an easy-to-use option to sacrifice part of the default user experience to enhance security by disabling features that are common vectors (which happen to be used by, as they phrase it multiple times in the announcement, "private companies developing state-sponsored mercenary spyware").

IMHO, whatever the reason why they are doing it, it's a good addition to their value proposition; but I don't think it's the same as what appears to be your understanding ("they will protect users from state actors"), at all.
There are vast stores of resouces available to human civilisation under your feet.

Space mining faces not only distance and energy costs, but extreme environments, lack of ore formation, highly limited element availability in numerous cases, and the challenge of delivery for Earth use without leaving a literal smoking crater.

Space is for virtually all intents an informational domain. Not one of matter.

Keep in mind that even in the one field for which space-based methods were most widely and plausibly promoted, telecommunications, it is literally easier and more useful to wrap the globe in glass than to incur the round-trip time costs of Earth-to-orbit transmission.

Starlink overcomes some of the time delay but seems unlikely to match the sheer bandwidth of fibre-optic communications.

I'm assuming the public key/SSH auth would be sufficient for that, after you'd shared your public key in a trusted setting (in person, over email, etc).

Probably more will follow this terrible example and the world will be a worse place for it.

> EVERYTHING HAS TRADEOFFS

Bullshit. What's the tradeoff on using `gets` vs any other function?

Nothing. Absolutely nothing. `gets` is wrong 100% of the time period.

If you're wrong its not a trade and a lot of things in this article and about dry is wrong
Some might disagree with these arguments on the account of smaller projects not necessarily "needing" all of that functionality, but personally I think that you do bring up some nice points!

In my eyes, it's important to find a technology stack that can scale both up and down in what it does - something that would be good enough for you to ship both production ready software with a bit more effort, as well as knock together a proof of concept in a weekend. Something that's good enough to be used in a team of people who have general experience in the industry (be it full-stack work or front-end in particular), as well as use on your own.

Why? Because the time I have for learning technologies and ironing out all the quirks in any particular setup is limited, it's far easier to make a few template repositories and a few customized component libraries of your own (which may just be renamed Bootstrap integration with a few additional personal touches and quality of life improvements) that you can throw in a new project and start working with it ASAP, not just work with 5 different stacks in 10 different projects, needing to constantly context switch.

Coincidentally, that's also one of the many reasons why most of my apps use containers as their runtimes (standardization regardless of orchestrator) and I don't scoff at boring languages like Java that let you use them as a hammer to beat in those pesky screws in their place.

I don't think they're 'fringe benefits', but I do agree that for the most part, schools are not assigning homework for these reasons. I also absolutely agree that most homework is assigned primarily as 'busy-work', because the teacher feels that 'children must do homework', rather than because they're trying to achieve a specific educational outcome, and this is the problem.

Fundamentally, I think it's better to give no homework than bad homework... but better to give good homework than no homework, and setting good homework is much more difficult for the teacher than setting bad homework - so your conclusion that 'homework is net negative' is probably true on average, but is not necessarily true for any individual child, class, or school - especially if they attend an excellent school with well-informed and caring practitioners who use homework thoughtfully as part of their pedagogical methodology.

I think we're both arguing two sides of the same coin though, and we're in agreement that the majority of homework as it is set today is not worth the paper it's written on, and although I perhaps wouldn't be quite as emphatic as saying it 'kills childhood', I agree with the overall point that most people's lives would be better if they a) didn't have to do homework if they're still school-age or b) hadn't had to do homework if they are no longer at school.
Utilizing knowledge to its potential for success for you depends on your attitude, and not the other way around.

You can be the world's leading expert at something, but if you don't have the motivation to build something that people want to buy, you won't succeed. And if you're a jerk to your customers, they'll find someone else. Same with employees if you start to grow. And so on, and so forth.

> copypaste is a friend of readable and mantainable specs

Another generic statement: copypaste (as I understand you mean the opposite of extracting common code) between specs goes against single responsibility. Rather than `setupUser()` you open a connection, create a user fixture, write it to the db, and then paste that across all the specs. Doing quite a lot.

I can imagine a spec with let's say 20 cases. Arrangement of each takes about 6 lines to load something, change some state the test subject depends on, the usual stuff, like in the above example.

A week from now, 10 cases need an extra line of setup, which you dutifully paste across the specs which require them. You put it somewhere in the middle, as it needs an id from the first step of 6.

This happens once or twice. The commonality of the original 6 copy pasted all over the place is hashed up, interspersed with calls specific to each test. The linking factor between those 6 lines is now obscured and requiring careful analysis if only those 6 need to change.

This can be avoided if you extract the common bits out early on. Rule of three is your friend if you don't want to rush it.
Well, JFYI, the mayor of Florence is all over newspapers here in Italy because seemingly Venice could introduce this "access ticket" whilst his own similar proposal (for Florence) last year has not been approved.

As someone noticed earlier the introduction of a ticket to access a city (be it Venice or Florence) will probably only make a dent in the total amount of people visiting it (which is the actual problem, they are simply too many) while making a difference between the "wealthy" and the "poor".

If the issue is too many people, the only solution is to limit the number of people (within reason and using some common sense in the way these hypothetical limits are set and enforced), introducing a ticket won't make any difference if not - possibly - provide the municipalities with money to cover the expenses these tourists create (the first thing that comes to my mind is litter, but there is also water, street and bridges maintenance, etc.).
And "knowledge" is a far more applicable word than "truth."

Truth implies facts, knowledge implies understanding the meaning and associated course of actions.

This is the second time in as many days that I've read something purporting to go beyond some original. The one yesterday was "we need more than the four types of documentation." All the examples fit into the four types as originally defined.

In HR training, there was even an entire segment on the "Platinum rule" because the Golden rule isn't good enough. Yet anyone who works to understand the Golden rule to any depth knows that it encompasses every "enhancement" the Platinum rule intends without any of the side effects.

What kind of failure is occurring such that definitions don't function any more, I wonder?
the typo is "non-pessimized code", which should be "non-optimized code".

I see humor in thinking if my code is pessimistic enough. Have I assumed that the edge cases will happen and worked around them? Do I expect (and handle) crashes, i/o failures, network timeouts, etc?

"code pessimism" could be an interesting metric.

The typo in the other post was "superb owl" which should have been "super bowl". Several people on that thread enjoyed the typo, including a comment from CostalCoder saying "Please, please do not correct that typo!"

Relative wealth changes because both parties need to eat and, assuming ETH becomes a usable currency, the poor will have to take a larger relative portion of their staked ETH and spend it to buy food.

Edit: Though, to be clear, this is hardly Ethereum's fault.

This kind of reasoning is exactly the problem that the US faces. "It's not really that bad, it's just a few silly states, overall we do know better". First, Texas is a pretty big state, too. You cannot just discount it as not mattering to the overall picture. Second, you are ONE country, you have ONE president. And what the majority of Americans think, doesn't seem to matter when it comes to the law, or to elections. Keep telling yourself that's it's not that bad because it's so diverse, and soon it will be much less diverse than you can imagine right now.
Funny story from the early days of TheFaceBook, probably around 2005ish:

I was a webmaster of a set of servers on a major university's network. I also had access (enough to run arbitrary programs that had pretty much full ingress/egress to the public internet) to a number of machines across the campus's network. Through some of my coursework and ACM chapter activities I met some other similarly minded technical people with similar levels of access.

We decide that it would be fun to use our superpowers (access + programming abilities + curiosity) to sign up for various accounts on FB and essentially scrape and friend as much as possible. At the time they had some rate limiting, some IP banning (which wasn't terrible because the Uni gave public IPv4 addrs to all machines on campus by default) and then added some early CAPTCHA which we ended up breaking pretty trivially with some python and image recognition code.

Never got sued... :) Never really did much with the scripts or data except test that they worked. Fun times.

The tradeoffs between centralized control and permissionless primitives are better explored elsewhere, but the dangerously high costs of depending on a fickle intermediary for all transactions should be clear to any informed observer.

Consider a Russian citizen unable to flee Putin's wartorn regime because all personal life savings and assets have been frozen.

Just as private communications make some tradeoffs for not acquiescing to the surveillance state, so permissionless value transfer makes tradeoffs.
