I can't tell if this is the result of "I thought of a blog post topic and spent two hours on it" or the distillation of years of thinking. It looks very simplistic, but maybe it's "elegant". Who knows.

Intuitively I am thinking it might work for small communities (where it is not even needed) and there's no way it will make its way into something like a Facebook. So I do not really see the point of it.

I don't broadcast anything either, but I send a lot of photos and sometimes short videos to my elderly relatives, who actually like them.

For example, they loved a short video of an elephant shower in a ZOO.

Unfortunately, this requires the same hardware as a broadcast, so it would be covered by the same no-pictures policy.
I find that, whatever the topic, the second page of DDG results is much worse than the first. Relevant articles on page 2 are often dups of articles on page 1. And page 2 articles are much more likely to be irrelevant.

I also dislike the scrolling behaviour of DDG once you've clicked for "More results"; keyboard scrolling (down-arrow) on page 2 takes me to the top of page 1. So I often !g instead of clicking "More results".

This general principle applies to a lot of seemingly-irrational government action: it's effectively buying insurance.

We all understand that, in an ideal world, most forms of (consumer-focused) insurance are a blackhole that you dump money into and never actually get any money back, because insurance only pays out if things go awry.

Subsidising strategic industries like farming falls under that exact same rubric. Ideally you don't ever want to cash in on that investment, but it's important that it's there. The CHIPS Act in the US is an example of this idea exactly. In a world where China is getting more aggressive around Taiwan, US-based foundries are an (expensive) insurance policy.

I didn’t say buying wasn’t cheaper in the long run. I said it’s not as cheap as people think, and it’s not as fixed as people think. There are people on this thread claiming that owning a home guarantees fixed costs for 30 years. That’s outright false, and naive.
What do you mean by similar philosophy? The JVM and Rust are quite different in every aspect, practical and philosophically speaking... except for both having lots of corporate backing perhaps?

Perhaps you meant to say WASM, which is indeed very similar to the JVM in goals and philosophy.

My opinion: people dislike the Java platform mainly for the language, perhaps too ceremonial and verbose for today's trends. Also older developers remember Java from the J2EE/Struts/applets days as something overarchitected, slow and with cumbersome tooling, but that would not apply to the younger cohorts. Maybe a new programmer just sees Java and thinks "legacy", and we love to feel we are on the edge of technology.
I dunno how famous this was within Norway, but the Norwegian butter crisis is mainly known within my circle of friends because of a video called "A Butter message to the USA!" by a Norwegian comedian: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ub0GzU56YMA

> I found that one a new team and they're very productive again

This. I should have added context that my experience was in small companies where it wasn't really possible to change teams. But some of the people that were bad performers became good performers only after they were fired and found new jobs. I've seen this happen at more than one company. They were probably just demotivated or hated their boss or something, and no amount of intervention can really fix that, short of a change in job (or a change in team, as you mention, if it's a bigger company).

It’s not a totally new phenomenon, but it’s gotten much worse. I remember as a kid, my mom would interrupt $enjoyable_experience to take photos for the family album. It would totally take me out of the flow as a kid and is why most of my childhood pictures are of me with an annoyed expression. In fact, most of my adult pictures feature the same expression for the same reason. Only, now my wife is the one with the camera.

> Remember that data can be encrypted by content hash, so there is no way to know what you're storing unless you go scouring the public internet for a key to decrypt it.

Censorship does not work this way. First, content that requires censorship resistance is usually public, otherwise one can employ a number of p2p or centralized solutions to share content directly.

Public content is easy to find, so step one: you find and identify the list of nodes that serve the content. Step two: you block the nodes on a level that's available to you (depends on the country). Step three: your users are unable to use the network effectively, because half of the nodes don't work, and revert to using Facebook.

Why wouldn't it be acceptable? As long as you don't steal assets you should be free to write any computer program you want.
I'm not sure I understand the comparison to Rust. The JVM is a virtual machine, analogous to the LLVM virtual machine that Rust targets. But that aside, I don't agree with the sentiment. Rust and C++ are languages that emphasise full low-level control. As such they offer different constructs the programmer chooses from for different characteristics -- e.g. virtual vs static dispatch -- in cases that are abstracted into a single abstraction in the JVM which then relies on the JIT compiler to profile the execution and pick the best implementation (virtual or static dispatch). Java, therefore, aims for a balance between ease of use and performance -- with an emphasis on _amortised_ performance -- whereas C++/Rust aim for maximum control with an emphasis on the worst case.

As for the hatred to Java, some of it is due to experience with "old Java" which is then negatively compared to some "new X" (rather than comparing "new X" to "new Java"). Some just comes from popularity. In 20222 Java is the dominant server-side language, with no other language coming remotely close in that domain. In 2002 Java was also the most popular server-side language. Very few languages have ever achieved such success for such a long time (e.g. COBOL and PHP never did), and I believe the list includes just C, Java, JavaScript, and, to a lesser extent, Python. Of those four, only C, Java, and JavaScript are commonly/mostly used in large projects, and people often hate large codebases. Those three languages receive roughly equal amounts of hate. C++, which isn't as popular but is also mostly used in large projects, also receives a lot of hate.

I think people believe that some language X easily fixes some flaw they see in Java, but so far it's come at the cost of other shortcomings they don't see, which explains why X never becomes as popular -- which makes those people disappointed -- which, in turn, means that it rarely has big, old codebases, and so is never hated but just fades to remain fondly-remembered, or lingers as a niche language (although sometimes a not very small niche). This is somewhat like the Betamax vs. VHS debate. A relatively small group of ardent fans liked Betamax because it was superior in a metric they cared about, but was inferior in metrics other people -- a larger group than the first -- cared about.

In short, I think it's a combination of unfamiliarity with "new Java", the language's extended popularity, and its use in large codebases.

I see a lot of complaints about this but find little information about what the actual problem is.

The abc link referenced mentions that Murdoch's reach through physical newspapers is indeed outsized, but acknowledges that only ~11% of the population uses this as primary news source. There is nothing indicating anything resembling a monopoly in radio, TV, and most importantly digital.

"The Australian" belongs to News Corp, but is generally considered a respectable outlet. Opinion pieces are clearly distinguishable, and they also welcome contributions by left wing politicians (Tanya Plibersek and Jim Chalmers are examples I remember seeing relatively recently).

It's not about using CLOS, since that is Lisp specific and the full thing incl. MOP is largish.

But Moose is largely influenced by CLOS.

"Moose is back-ported Perl6 objects, which borrows heavily from CLOS and the concepts introduced in the Smalltalk traits paper. This is a bit of a simplification of the history, but the ancestry is present, documented and obvious."

I wouldn't say that the figure of Facebook friends is an indication of number of people I really cared. I do care some of them (sometimes sending wishes for them), but a majority of them are either my classmate in high school, a junior in university, a (former) co-worker, or someone whom I met in social gathering that shared common interests and wanted to hear/talk with them. It's like the use of Facebook as a directory since everyone has one.

Conversely, there are plenty of friends whom I know personally, but did not connect via Facebook (we use IM for that). This may probably be counted towards the close friends I really cared for; only few (no more than 10) people fits this criteria of mine.
Dance. There’s lots of dances out there that don’t require the body of a 18 year old to compete and be world class at.

That said - you will never have articles written about you, be interviewed for X, etc. Dance is mostly for enjoyment and socializing. There’s almost no money in the industry as well as compared to running or other hobbies/sports. Most dances are funded by passion - not through capitalism.
The rustc binary should run on any modern glibc distro by default and there is builds for other libc libraries too. It's not purely statically linked, it does run against glibc and pulls in a few other dynamic libraries, but most of those should be present if your system can show a TTY with a shell. I'd recommend using rustup to install the newest toolchain (and avoid pulling in an old one from your package manager, rustup can install older toolchains for you and manages it better than your distro with high probability)
Bah, that's just the emergency on-the-road version -- not a serious chain tool...

But you can't compare English mustard to hot (chili) sauces - they're not the same type of spiciness at all. English mustard packs a great kick like you'll get from good horseradish sauces or wasabi, which isn't surprising since they're all in the same family. You get the feeling of the sinuses clearing, but there's no heat/burning sensation that sticks around in your mouth. Both of these are great additions to the right foods.

> Why not IntelliJ?

My (admittedly poor) excuse is that I really wanna keep using neovim (I really like the customizability) :D

> Why not TS/Haskell?

TS is amazingly expressive, and probably my choice after Rust for traditional full stack! But it's sometimes the case that the underlying dynamic nature of JS "leaks through" (especially when using third party libraries), and it does come with the rest of the JS baggage (undefined == null, no easy pattern matching, ..etc).

Haskell? I just realized that, from reading the interwebs, I've had an unconscious bias against Haskell as a mostly academic language unfit for industry use cases except in very narrow niches, but I def should check it out and make up my own mind.

> Though, in all fairness, in your case you're probably comfortable enough with Rust's borrow checker that it doesn't slow you down that much anymore.

True. On the rare occasion that it does, I just use the "cop out" of doing `.clone()`. I hope to get better though!

> When was the last time a US soldier was called to arms to defend their own country?

I am not american so maybe I am wrong but I believe it was Afghanistan in 2001 and Iraq in 2003 no?

The justification, weather correct or not, was in both cases exactly what you said. To “defend their own country”.

In Afghanistan to prevent further 9/11 style attacks from being committed against the USA and in Iraq to prevent WMDs from being used against the USA. The famous/infamous “do you want the proof to come in the form of a mushroom cloud?” bit.

Again, weather the justification was correct or not is not what I am pointing out. I am pointing out in both cases, the USA called soldiers to fight “to arms to defend their own country”

Boilerplate in itself is not complexity (eg import statements), it’s just tedious and unergonomic. In fact it can reduce complexity, again with example of imports being a better alternative than global symbols.

Coupled boilerplate on the other hand is complexity, where if you change x in front end you also must change corresponding x in backend.
If you design software to do a thing and then the software is used to do that thing, it follows that you’re responsible.

The JVM is a beautiful place for code to run, and the language is great as well. The only and main weakness is interfacing with the OS and libraries. TCP and file access is builtin and is no problem, but to access a serial device you'd need JNI. To interact with OpenGL, you need JNI. To interact with the Linux kernel, JNI. C/C++ library: JNI. JNI is fine if you have no other choice (e.g. to invoke Android's Java-only SDK's, e.g. for Bluetooth), but voluntarily, much less so. It is much less of a pain to invoke Linux or Windows C libraries (or Apple's Obj-C APIs) from, say, C++ than it is from Java.
WinXP was vulnerable to a lot of remote exploits out-of-the-box. If you just connected WinXP to the internet after a new installation (and without SP2 and up-to-date patches) and walked away for 24 hours, you could expect it to be infected by the time you got back. This was, of course, a much bigger issue back when we were directly connecting our PC's to the internet with dial-up. WinXP behind a properly configured router isn't at risk in the same way.
The developer was not sanctioned or included in the sanction. Only "Tornado Cash" the open source project and some specific smart contract addresses.
