It is a context-specific requirement, but "fully general lowercasing" would be an impossible requirement.

For e.g. Japanese text, I think you'd only have to add 1 or 2 characters to the set of whitespace characters. You also have to solve Japanese text segmentation, which is hard-to-impossible. If you want to canonicalize the words by transforming half-width katakana to full-width, transforming full-width romaji to ascii, etc., that's a lot of work, and which of those transformations are desired will be specific to the actual use of the program. If you want to canonicalize the text such that the same word written using kanji or using only hiragana end up in the same bucket, or that words that are written the same way in hiragana but written differently when using kanji end up in different buckets, or that names that are written the same way in kanji but written differently in hiragana end up in different buckets, or that loanwords incorrectly written using hiragana are bucketed with the katakana loanword, or that words written using katakana for emphasis are bucketed with the hiragana word (but katakana loanwords are not converted to hiragana and bucketed with the non-loanword that is made up of the same moras), well, that all sounds even more challenging than the hard-to-impossible problem you already had to solve to decide where words begin and end :)

Edit: One of the first concerns I mentioned, about full width romaji and half width katakana, and additionally concerns about diacritics, can be addressed using unicode normalization, so these things are pretty easy[0]. An issue you may still face after normalizing is that you may receive inputs that have incorrectly substituted tsu ツ for sokuon ッ (these are pronounced differently), because for example Japanese banking software commonly transmits people's names using a set of characters that does not include sokuon.

My point is that this is not just a hard problem but many different, incompatible problems, many of which are hard, and because of the incompatibilities you have to pick one and give up on the others. An English-speaking end user may not want their wordcount to perform full width romaji -> ascii conversion.

Well compelling the TLD owner (in this case .com) through the courts to change the delegation to your zone also works in GNS. (You would not force some kind of "hand over" of the example.com domain. Because that is not how it works).

Similarly "buying the domain" simply means having this party yield the registration at the domain registrar to you.

Anyway, both also works in GNS.
My example addresses the case where the legal claim is not possible and the other party uncooperative while "consensus" is that it is a squatter with no claim. (Or, by extension, a censorious circumstance, think TPB)
The commenter wasn’t providing an explanation on how the kiosk works, they were giving a criticism of the tone and usefulness of the article. I thought their level of detail in their critique was perfectly appropriate.
"The purpose of a traffic sign is not to raise public appreciation and awareness of geometry which is better dealt with in other ways."

Maybe the petition was done the wrong way:

It's not about geometry lessens. Soccer balls literally don't look like that. There are (most likely) way more people appreciating sports than geometry in the UK, so that'd be a better argument
If you intentionally kill the wrong person, is that not still murder?
I think Michael Brooks put it more nicely than Morpheus:

> Symbols of 'Westernisation'

This a widely used rhetoric used by islamists, and "post-colonialists" in my country (Algeria). No amount of philosophical sophistication will defeat this intellectual tool of terror.
Hm. I'm not sure if you'd end up with a geyser.

Assume a chimney fire first. It's like a square pipe with 20cm - 30cm side length and - depending on how active it is - 200 - 400 degrees in there. That's already a condition you cannot introduce water into, because if water flash-boils into steam, it can expand it's volume by a factor of up to 1700. This can cause the chimney to turn into pretty much a pipe bomb, with the additional bonus that it's going to distribute the fire previously contained inside the chimney all over the house.

And now we're talking about some much, much hotter situation (melting rock), pretty much contained (because that 1m hole isn't going to vent much) hitting ideally a large amount of water? That's not a geyser, that'll be a bomb. For example, one of the largest steam explosion in the US was caused by a pipe 0.61 meters in diameter with steam at 400 degrees C. It left some 4.5 meter crater.

Moral of the story: Don't piss off the establishment politicians, or bad shit is likely to happen to you and yours.
Before becoming a professional programmer, I programmed.

I now program for a living.

My hobbies also include learning new languages/frameworks/libraries, playing with frontend for my personal site (I'm not a frontend dev in $DAY_JOB) and reading on the history of computing (although I have non-programing hobbies).

When I'm retired I'll probably keep on doing it.

I don't know if there's an end goal. I guess this is not just for programmers. I imagine many chefs are the same way. Cook for a living, cook at home, read books about exotic foods, make a nice meal. That's pretty much it.

I've read some time ago a discussion on how people that code most of their waking hours are an "unfair" competition to programmers that just want to do it 9 to 5. Believe me, I'm no competition. I'll be probably reading on how to make nice SVG flowers in Forth at 1am.
>The only "british" people were the army/RUC, the rest were people from ireland. NI is not part of great britian. NI is _not_ british.

That is not a good-faith position. "British" is universally understood to mean "relating to the people of the United Kingdom". Hence "British passport", "British citizen", etc.

The people of Northern Ireland are therefore British by nationality, being citizens of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, under UK law.

They are also Irish, in the sense that they are inhabitants of the island of Ireland; and also (prior to 2005) on the basis that everyone born on the island of Ireland was an Irish citizen by birth.
What test do you recommend and why?

Last time I googled these tests I got so many results it seems like a small bullshit industry.

Gut bacteria is obviously important but I'm not sure the results of these tests are useful.
The challenge will be removing the DRM from your Kindle books. You may need to Google around a bit, but here's a high-level of what you need to do:

1) Seek out a tool called "DeDRM". The original plugin is no longer supported, so you may want to search on GitHub for the fork from NoDRM, which is still maintained.

2) Download Calibre if you don't already have it and install the DeDRM plugin.

3) You now need to get your books from Amazon into a format that DeDRM is able to crack. One method is to download the Kindle for PC app, but this method can be finnicky because Amazon keeps changing the DRM schema to avoid being cracked and you may have to track down an older version of the install. The easier method is to pull the books off your Paperwhite itself. So inside of Calibre, configure the DeDRM tool and enter in your Paperwhite's serial number (this is needed because the serial number is used as part of the encryption).

4) Finally, try importing one of your Kindle Paperwhite books into Calibre, and try opening the book using Calibre's ebook viewer. If you can read the book (i.e. the text is not scrambled), the decryption was successful. You can then load the rest of your collection. You should now have a collection of DRM-free AZWs.

5) The final step to getting the books over to your Kobo is converting them to a compatible format. Calibre has a built-in conversion tool for AZW to EPUB, however some people complain that the built-in tool can mess with the formatting. You may wish to download an additional plugin called KindleUnpack, which will produce an EPUB or MOBI file that is closer to the source material.

You can try all of this before getting a Kobo to make sure that it works. I've set this up for various family members who all uses Kindle exclusively, primarily so that we can share books with each other, but also just to make sure that everyone has a good backup of their collection.
Twitter’s earnings falter as it fights with Elon Musk
It's also the case that that social trust and those social ties have been weakened, intentionally over the last four or five decades, to produce a "post-political" system of governance.

Margaret Thatcher famously said, "There's no such thing as society. There are individual men and women, and there are families." It wasn't true when she said it, but thanks to her and the other architects of neoliberalism, it is true now.
If i remember correctly, these are initials of the first designers of the architecture. Norwegian guys.

They're real and there's plenty evidence of them hitting their targets in Ukraine. You're just not going to see it on from the armchair generals on Reddit or Twitter. Now a moving target, that's a whole different story.
What are you talking about? git request-pull came far before GitHub existed, and that sends an email for a request & instructions to pull from a remote branch.
I'm extremely happy writing Rust with neovim and rust-analyzer. There are plenty of long time rust users who will absolutely tell you that rust-analyzer beats IntelliJ Rust, and I find it very much comparable to writing Java in IntelliJ, which I do professionally. Likewise, Elixir's open source and community developed LSP is incredible and easily an IDE-class experience with neovim or VSCode.
TBF it takes human brain anywhere from several months to decades to train for its skills. Plus several hundred million years spent on pre-training.
Did you read the article? This is about security on-device

The update process can be backed on the kiosk side, hacking the remote side of the update process is a completely different story.

I mean in some cases that was a simple signed package hosted on an S3 bucket... how are you going to leverage that to vandalize a network of devices?

And the kiosks are never on an interesting network (if they were there's dozens of ethernet ports scattered about the place you can use to get access anyways)

Hacked kiosks being used as proxy servers when you need physical access to hack is also a very uninteresting problem. Why risk tying your physical self to a bot for nefarious usage when there are a million and one other "IoT" devices you can pwn instead?

We will be adding this soon, it's an acknowledged priority for the beta.
This is an awesome explanation! Along with other comments I feel like I now understand where I would (and would not) want to use ripgrep.

And thanks for making an awesome, open source tool. :)
Sadly, as far as iranian horrific and senseless laws, I think this is pretty mild. I am more concerned about women and dissidents.

Its beyond that now, they're often paid more than doctors, lawyers, pilots, managers, traders, professors, just about everyone.
But they DO work in economics. Otherwise why would almost everyone contribute the default rather than a lower or higher amount?

Defaults are very strong when there is a lot of uncertainty about the payoffs of different answers.
Am I right to conclude you can have multiple pet names pointing to a single global name? If so, might this lead to something like brand confusion? For instance, let's say I have a place called 4rergdes0903004059 as a global identifier for my company, Xerox. I would then make a pet name of something like Xerox.com to point to said global. However, Staples.com also points as a pet name to my Xerox global identifier...
If you're talking about the electricity video, that one was not wrong at all.

That’s pretty funny. Not that the restaurants deserve to be stolen from, but using the default password on an EMV is about as foolish as a restaurant leaving their registers open. I’m surprised the terminals don’t force you to at least set your own passcode.

The article mentions it, but I'll reiterate: the .NET CLR is fantastic. C# is a great language for the backend: GC'd, lots of libraries, fast runtime, and expressive enough. Do I wish it was more functional? Absolutely. But it doesn't aspire to be that.

The ecosystem deserves mention. There are some high-quality libraries that work well, even if they aren't the most popular. Take objectional relational mappers, for instance. You can go whole hog and have an ultra-coupled, er, cough, "batteries-included" ORM much like every other ecosystem, or experiment with a multitude of options between writing your own SQL but letting the ORM handle hydration, and a full-blown ORM.

Tooling support has always been top of the line, too. It is only in the past few years that other languages have caught up with the quality there (Eclipse/IntelliJ excepted).
Ah yes, the old “More from the fit, less from the unfit” view of reproduction. Where “fit” of course is “like me.” There’s a long history of this sort of eugenics.
Fun stuff! I find that the more I find out about PL research and what I myself like in programming, the more I feel constrained in many languages.

I find that most of the bugs I write (which are many) are errors in dealing with mutable state. There is always one stupid little detail that leads to bad state. This has led me to dislike the programming language I write the most (probably python, despite really only wanting to write scheme) because it is mutation first. I was also sad to discover that I couldn't write self-recursive procedures in rust because they are never guaranteed to be actually recursive.

Did you get anything like that from your work with onyx? (And yes, I believe I have actually has a look at onyx about 10 years ago, back when trying to write poatscript).

On linux based OSes, Godot must generate pure and simple ELF64 binaries which do libdl everything from the system, and that means:

* no C/c++ main(), but the sysv ABI entry point (which is basically main() anyway). When the libc will be libdl-ed, the init functions are called with the same arguments stack than the sysv ABI entry point.

* interact with system TLS-ized variable with only the sysv ABI __tls_get_addr(), for instance if there is a need to use errno. I have to admit, I did not get really into this issue yet (but there my be seriously nasty things related to the "TLS offset").

* fork the static gcc/clang libstdc++ in order to libdl-ize it, because even with -static-libstdc++/-static-libgcc options, it won't libdl what it requires from the system libs (gcc devs 100% at fault here, they have been carefully ignoring the availability of games on linux OSes for a decade). rant[on], to avoid this and the dependency on the very few c++ compilers (because c++ syntax is beyond sanity), godot should have been a simple and lean C project, rant[off].

Currently, the only way to mitigate the GNU symbol versoning abuse from the glibc devs (100% their fault), is to compile/link against a years old glibc (_REALLY_ old).

That said, they should od exactly the same on other OSes, which means the code structure would be the same, only different compile-time and runtime function tables.
The other thing I've found is that in those cases, the toxicity of their reaction will (at least slightly) move the opinions of at least some people watching the conversation.

So I tend to cut bait and move on at the point where it starts to upset me rather than the point at which the conversation itself is obviously futile.

However my tolerance before I start to actually be upset is relatively high - most people would be significantly better served by bailing out earlier and I've seen too many people burning out of having such conversations entirely because of not doing that and I miss their perspective so would prefer they set boundaries that work for them.

(in case you can't tell, I like being covering fire and it very definitely earns me more friends I am glad to have than enemies I would have preferred not to have)
> The hordes of people who turn into lunatics is silly.

The hordes of lunatics already exist, and are just waiting for something to happen.
This is one of the reasons why we put together this document. We (as authors) see there being many benefits to smaller human populations on earth, but we think that any transition made needs to be made very thoughtfully.

So far we we can see, there is very little (effective) proactive action being taken to ensure that as population levels decline, things we value (like technological progress, women's rights, diversity of cultures, etc.) are protected.
I mean, the claim of "home rule is rome rule" was justified in the sense of the Catholic Church dictating much social policy until the 80s, but at the same time, the Irish government did not set up the voting system to disadvantage one religious or ethnic grouping, yet the Northern Irish government did. Your comment comes across as whataboutism.

You can intercept missiles. The closer you can get to your target, the less chance of an interception (can’t calculate trajectory).

In all likelihood this craft will be a command and control center. Can target missiles and control drones.

Nah, fuck this "everything is politics" attitude. Politics is everywhere because you make it everywhere. It's a big part of the reason why discourse is as fucked up as it is. Every discussion/encounter has to be won/lost based on your ideology.

Some of these (heap dumps) can also be used with nodejs. That being said, from my experience most UI developers do not care much about memory leaks,most likely because the assumption is that a page is not long running enough that's it would matter.

Ah, yes, the IRA. Two special things about them, for me...

Decades ago, I knew a very nice, educated Irish-American gentleman, who'd grown up over there. Deep knowledge of European history, fascinating to listen to for hours, etc. But if he had a drink or two, he'd re-tell the story of the Proudest Moment of his life: Back in Ireland, when (thanks to his Sherlock Holmes knowledge and insight) he had managed to "out" several Protestants as such - in circumstances rough enough that being outed immediately lead to their being murdered. IANAL, but he showed nothing resembling regret, and never asked anyone to keep quiet about it. For me, he was a pretty visceral education in just how nice and educated someone can be...and yet still be so malicious as to boast of murdering complete strangers.

Talking about the War on Terror(tm) with folks (say, 99% of modern Americans) who really don't know squat about European history, the IRA can be extremely useful as a real-world example - where both sides are white Christians. When folks who claim to educated, unprejudiced, etc. make moralistic statements about government policies or situations involving Arabs, Islamic extremists, etc. - just re-cast the situation with the IRA, in the UK, during the Troubles. Are they comfortable with what they said, in that context? Generally no. Their reactions can be pretty educational.
