Yep, I am interested in more concrete samples also... If I'm not mistaken this result of copy/pasting CSS can be achieved in a multitude of ways (for free), so not seeing more intricate samples on the landing page is disappointing.

I am also interested how well this tool can handle nested sections which use selectors like :after/:before but also layering through z-index. This is typically where such tools fall short.

It's one of London's six airports, primarily used for discount holiday flights. Hardly safety-critical.

Besides, this is literally the first time ever it has reached temperatures this high - and it has been open for 84 years. I bet they also "failed to design" for hurricanes, cataclysmic floods, and volcanoes!

Great question and many great suggestions here! If I was the librarian facing your task, I would probably try to collect books that 1) cover different programming language paradigms, and 2) books that teach you how to think differently, using a computer language as a medium.

In this regard, I would add "The AWK Programming Language" by Aho, Kernighan and Weinberger. Published in 1988, but it was an excellent introduction to computing for a layman like me around a decade ago. Clear, concise writing; really teaches you to think. Still relevant in 2022, especially considering that awk has gained some attention in recent years. Great warm-up to approaching C via K&R. Can't go wrong with Brian Kernighan as a teacher, I guess.

Another worthwhile book is "Modern Perl, Fourth Edition" by chromatic (2015):
https://pragprog.com/titles/swperl/modern-perl-fourth-editio...

Also, "Higher Order Perl" by Mark Jason Dominus (2005). Functional programming techniques with Perl; also ticks the "general thinking book" box. Lots of praise on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Higher-Order-Perl-Transforming-Progra...

Leo Brodie's "Starting Forth" and "Thinking Forth" probably also count as timeless classics in the "thinking book" section.

Lastly, see also Seymour Papert's books "Mindstorms: Children, Computers, and Powerful Ideas" (1980) and "The Children's Machine: Rethinking School in the Age of the Computer" (1993). These are brilliant for anybody who's interested in thinking and learning, or the Logo programming language that Papert developed.
Thanks for sharing your story!

A decent amount of disclosure programs explicitly call out social engineering as unacceptable conduct and submissions.

However, social engineering is a very valid method for attackers and in many cases, offers the path of least resistance.

While I understand why companies don’t want good faith security research to call and try to trick the human factor, this is still a very real attack vector that needs attention and to be fixed as in what you’ve described.

I've worked with a lot of designers in my career. It has never gone the way your examples went.

A conversation between colleagues with context provided is enough to allow us to work through differences. Explaining that the animation they're suggesting is bespoke, requiring more work across different browsers to ensure behavior and performance is what we want is enough to move us to something more simple, for example.

What I do run into often is developers without an eye for detail, who don't understand things like white space, padding, colors, and assume they're unimportant who then are told they're not and get upset that they need to go back and fix CSS and layout.
I think if the choice is China or America, the majority of the world would choose America. America is less hostile to other countries than China.

Do you think the world would rather have China in charge?

I assume you are going to claim that we can either have no major power or that the EU could be that major power. I highly doubt either of those could occur.

I believe some wars can be just and as such enforcing things through the military can be just. The idea that military use has to be bad is ridiculous.
The Stuff of Life: Materiality and the Self
Yes. It's a very obvious question particularly when OP specifically brings up a "safe place to live" which implies some level of vetting. I'm surprised to not see anything on their site as I write this about the service in the bottom or side nav. No "About Us", no FAQ, like who even IS this company? Without digging further I can't even see where this company is based (I'm assuming it's a registered company?). They should be addressing these basics in terms of "why trust us" I think?

Actually yeah this site is genuinely weird. Like if this was a phishing site for LGBT, which to be clear is unlikely, but if it was I'd expect it to look a bit like this. Zero info at all.
It's near impossible to monetize an article these days, unfortunately. This is a pretty heavy production so it's only fair.
Minidisc is really a cool format. Another format which was consider too cool for consumers was DAT. Basically the notion that you could make CD quality digital recordings on a simple mini tape was terrifying to the recording industry.
As OP said [1], this is for LGBT persons looking for an LGBT-friendly flatware. They make be gay, trans, straight or a kitten. What they (CLARIFICATION: the flatmates advertising) aren’t is homophobic.

There's a similar comment here that's dead. People love to complain about the US not being democratic, but when you point out that they're correct and the US is in fact not a democracy and not democratic it gets downvoted.
No, they extract and sell oil and they happen to do it at a profit. This is not the same as being compensated or billed for things that resulted from the use of that oil.
What you're talking about has absolutely nothing to do with tracking usage of workplace computers and networks - H&M kept "excessive" (sic) records of personal data of people who were not their employees at all (family members of their employees) - and the problem wasn't that they had some data because in EU you're required to keep track of families of your employees due to tax reasons, but that they had too much of it.

In most EU countries, tracking company-owned hardware is explicitly okay, and where it's not mentioned in law there are judicates that make it OK.

As I said, even the government and its wholly/partially owned enterprises are doing it, and working as a contractor for the government here requires you to track usage of your employees' workplace computers too, so I can't see how it could be in any way illegal. Same thing with working for banks and insurance, and I bet there are more cases.
With regard to alcohol, the government, federal or state, shouldn't have a place in it.

With respect to other matters, it would depend on the circumstances. In the context the article at hand, I doubt writing legislation dictating that a car should be only so high and only so wide would be effective. Legally, speaking, even if such a law were passed, it would be unenforceable. It would hurt the automotive industry and kill hundreds of not thousands of jobs. And with regards to safety, smaller cars are more cramped wouldn't fit a wide-berthed family of five.

Countries with low vehicular fatalities per person make it difficult for anyone but the rich to own a car in the first place usually via high import taxes or a yearly vehicle licensing or excise tax. But that goes back to our original point in that direct policies would immediately receive pushback and legal challenges where as more indirect policies that "solve" the immediate and medium-term issue but will eventually cause economic consequences that fully aren't grasped until it's too late. Both approaches eventually lead to undesirable outcomes.

I think you're giving him too much credit. This is the guy who cursed us with JavaScript and set back Web development by a solid decade, then went on to say "fuck you" to same-sex marriage before getting fired from his newly-attained CEO chair of Mozilla. His contributions to the world at large are more akin to the French: he added a lot of fancy, useless things to the world and then cowered and backpedaled when he was questioned for his beliefs.
Growing up in Kansas I never got the Disney thing either. Disney was re-running their hits in theaters decades after they were originally released, and of course knocking out Don Knotts films like "The Apple Dumpling Gang". I thought it was a generational thing — like, of course my parent's generation are into Disney.

Moving to California though I was surprised by how much traction Disney continues to get with the follow-on generations.
I've got ambivalent feelings about Disney-- over the whole forever-copyright thing, trying to own our entire culture, etc.

Their IRL entertainment products-- the resorts/parks, travel, etc-- are super-premium. They are not a great value. And they are in a weird "bubble".

But man, your kids are entertained and customer service is good and everything is fun for everyone.
Also not a lawyer, and I'll speak to the what could happen in the US, not the UK. I don't think a judge would buy your argument. The Pirate Bay has "user-generated listings" and doesn't offer pirated content, itself. It even has legitimate uses. It's still primarily for piracy. From Grokster[1]:

> We hold that one who distributes a device with the object of promoting its use to infringe copyright, as shown by clear expression or other affirmative steps taken to foster infringement, is liable for the resulting acts of infringement by third parties.

I'd argue that this is essentially the same. Craigslist gets a pass because its housing posts are generic, so HUD violations are entirely on the poster.

Thank you for your feedback! :)

We spent several days thinking in a better name. We decided to keep this one, but we know at some point we will need to change it. This was more of a SEO strategy; to be more readable; and to stay easily in the mind.

For example: If it was "mylgbtqflatmate" would be so difficult to understand.

We understand that not everyone identifies as "gay" and we don't want to focus only in that segment.

I think it’s more political.

If you agree with the political conclusion of a study then it’s science. If you disagree then it’s fake news.
Yeah that's not a bad way of putting it. Each musical part will use the samples in a different way each time though, with some randomness added, so it hopefully stops things from being too recognisable.

> I have cargo today in C++ via NuGET and vcpkg, and what is great about it, I don't have to compile my depedencies from scratch.

To be fair, if you're using a language that has a reasonable compilation story, this is only every a concern the first time you compile.
Yes, maybe the distinction would be nice, but I think the existing 4xx and 5xx codes provide a reasonable baseline for building smart clients.

403, 404—log error, maybe retry later. I don’t think there’s a reasonable way for the server to distinguish transient vs permanent failures here.

429—client should back off, throttle requests.

5xx—client should back off, throttle requests.

The big problem here is that from the server side, if you try to figure out whether an error is transient or permanent, you often get the wrong answer. It’s a diabolical problem. The distinction between “failed” and “overloaded” is something that you might figure out in a post-mortem once humans take a look, but while it is happening, I would not expect the two to be distinguished.

What I do want to transmit from server to client are things like:

- Try again at a different URL (307).

- Try again at a different URL, and update your config to point at this other URL (301, 308).

- The request should be authenticated (401). Try again if you can authenticate.

- I understood the request and had the resources to process it, but the request failed (403, 404, 405, 412, etc) due to the system state. Retry if the user asks for it.

- There is something wrong with the request itself (400, 422, etc). This is a bug, get a programmer to look at it.

- Slow down (429). Retry automatically, but not too quickly.

- As above, but take a look at the server or proxy to see if it’s working correctly. (503, 504)

- Go look at the server logs. (500)

As a rule, I would say that any error can be transitory, and I would tend to write clients with the ability to retry any request. Not as a hard rule, just as a tendency. A “permanent” status code isn’t necessarily a statement of fact, but just a belief.

Doesn't look much like C++ successor to me, at all. What's up with all those fns, and functions starting with uppercase?
I disagree that it's overblown. For every study that's utterly failed to replicate over the past however many decades, people have been "sure it is more likely to be correct than the alternative" and that's literally not the case. The word "science" has been invoked in a way that makes people believe that they have more information about the world than they do. Updating towards a study that wasn't properly conducted is worse than the study not existing, because it removes uncertainty that you should still possess, but it is touted as "science" in popular media all the same.
I finally read the Lena story and the rest of the article (the tall scroll bar on Lena ended up being comments, but the story itself is short). It all sounds about right to me, and the timeline is perhaps even conservative. Once humans transcend the material plane and live in computers, it all goes Black Mirror rather quickly, certainly by 2100.

What we're going to find is that consciousness has the properties of emergent behavior, but is actually fundamental. Every ray of light falling on every bit of matter stimulates it, and that stimulation gives rise to ever-increasing complexity until feedback runs at a high enough vibration for self-awareness to be reached. Which is a reformulation of pantheism and panpsychism. So it won't matter if a brain is running on atoms or being simulated in a quantum computer somewhere. The end result is the same: as soon as the running mind reaches a minimum level of complexity, it becomes self-aware. The substrate is a filter through which consciousness models reality, nothing more.

The real kicker is that this process actually happens in reverse. Source consciousness waits an eternity as sort of a non-collapsed wave function, spread over the entire multiverse. Through evolution, all possible universes form across space and time, and over topologies we don't even have in our universe. Until finally a level of complexity is reached for human-level intelligences like ours to exist and talk about it. But there are also consciousnesses like Gaia and Aya that exist on planes and timescales that we can't imagine. And they're part of our minds as well, similarly to how polytheistic gods live in our psyches, not on a mountaintop somewhere. We can commune with them any time through dreams, meditation and altered states brought on by chemicals (to name a few ways). In fact, all minds are variations of the same source consciousness running simultaneously outside of spacetime. Which means that source consciousness created reality, not the other way around.

Or to be more formal: there's no way to prove whether reality or consciousness came first. But approaching the problem from the consciousness side allows for greater possibility and fits better with our experience of being here, the "I think, therefore I am" part from Descartes.

Unfortunately, the prevailing worldview today is that I made all of this up, just like we all do. And, maybe I did. But I'm just approaching it from a programming perspective, drilling down with root cause analysis. I believe that programming happens through intuition and that if one does it long enough, they begin to recognize the clairsentience that they had all along as a conscious human. So I'm cursed to see problems all the way through to the end, but blessed to be able to dabble in ramifications without having to do the work of actually building an AI. The same way that I can talk about hard drives without knowing the specifics of how magnetic domains work. And we can all do this at any time.

Or I've just been listening to too much Alan Watts and Terence McKenna..
Failure or going temporarily out of use does not necessarily imply bad engineering.
Engineering also has to assess the cost of a solution and weigh this against the risk and impact of any failures.
In this case the prior on risk of a ‘melting event’ may have gone up since the runway was designed. The impact of closing for one day in x years may also have been explicitly deemed acceptable.

You get better at reading by reading and deliberately practicing it. Speed reading is a completely different skill than comprehension. Comprehension is a completely different skill than entertaining yourself. The fundamentals aren't going anywhere. They'll be here when you realize speedreading, bionic reading, and summaries are just distractions.
> more dimensions to include many worlds, I suppose?

There is no spacetime model of many worlds at all, as far as I know. Many worlds as an interpretation of QM is based on non-relativistic QM.

The "space" in which quantum states "live" is not spacetime but Hilbert space. "Many worlds" is really a misnomer in the sense that there is only one quantum state in Hilbert space. But quantum states in Hilbert space can have relationships to ordinary space that are not at all like those in classical physics: for example, a single quantum state can describe a system containing multiple entangled particles that are spatially separated; in such a state no particle by itself has any definite state at all (which is impossible in classical physics). That is true regardless of which QM interpretation you adopt.

It is literally the hottest that the UK has ever been in recorded history. It is roughly the same temperature as the high in Tucson today. It is very hot.

You can build infrastructure for this heat. The UK does not have that. This is why runways are melting and the media is freaking out.

The problem is that the ocean is not amenable to random sampling in the same way that, say, Twitter accounts are; phytoplankton are going to be differentially-distributed depending on where in the euphotic zone you're sampling, which latitudes, distance to land, time of year, and so on, which is why longitudinal biodiversity studies are carried out in specific areas. It's vanishingly unlikely that 500 water samples of unknown provenance (and I'm curious why they weren't sampling using the standard method of towed plankton nets) can demonstrate a global extinction event of all plankton, though it could indicate a loss of biodiversity in certain areas. God knows we're working hard to empty out our oceans, but I'm not sure that this paper demonstrates what they claim.
