> and that's not easy to do. A household with $0 of income might have a secret $100M fortune somewhere. Should they get free electricity?

Universal basic. That does not mean unlimited user decided usage, then it would not be basic, and it does not have any income restrictions then it would not be universal. If Elon Musk lived in Denmark he’d still get free doctors appointment and cancer treatment even though he’s rich. And yes that is fair. We help everyone who needs help equally, how much money you have or don’t have is completely irrelevant. No need to do background checks or have a Big system around figuring out if a patient deserves help or not, or figuring out patient details. The entire system is geared towards helping people no matter who they are, and that’s how it should be.

I'm in the same camp. Even though I still keep my google mail just in case I forgot to tell somebody I'm not using it anymore. Same with FB - I was kicked out after I refused to send FB a scan of my ID.. So service which does not allow me to log in with my own email would automatically rule me out.
Regardless of whether or not you pursue this strategy it may be worth consulting an attorney. You know what's more legally precarious than blowing the whistle? Having kept quiet before someone else blows the whistle.

If you're pretty for down the totem pole you're probably safe, but awareness of fraud without exposing it can very often leave you legally liable. If you're in any kind of leadership position you could be one of the people that end up taking the fall.

I agree... The compiler can make a lot of assumptions on such a simple operation, you have to look at the assembly.
In other more complex cast cases it might be slower so I would not assume anything.

> (1) distorting Chinese and other countries’ culture and society;

Then no sarcasm is allowed which is an important measure to critize a state and its behaviour.

> (2) defaming Chinese military forces, policemen, and judiciary;

Same as for (1), making these groups "untouchable" and "uncritizeable" (if that's a word)

> (3) showcasing obscenity content, either visual or verbal;

Who defines "obscene"? The Ministry of Truth? The president? The government? Your mother?

> (4) showcasing “excessive” images of murder, violence, horror, interrogation, drug-taking, and even gambling;

Is there any movie where such display is not used as a negative example in the end or to explore the boundaries of human downfall? Tony Montana is not really the hero in the end, same goes for Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill or Fight Club.

> (5) advertise negative and decadent values or deliberately exaggerate the negative part of society;

Yeah, please don't put your finger where it hurts, we don't like that so much, someone could have a bad opinion of a broken state.

> (6) advocate religious extremism;

"Being Christian" is enough to be considered extremist in China, I think. Or let's ask the Uigurs how well these rules work for them.

> (7) advocate environmental destruction and animal torture;

Especially China is very good at the practical side of this, really no need to make movies about that. Besides that: Are there any movies where animals are tortured?

> (8) excessively showcase alcohol addiction, smoking, or other bad habits;

Same as with (4).

> (9) demonstrate other illegal content.

Bingo. Wildcard.

You can't simply close your eyes and hope everything will get better by itself.
I guess the real question is could the €2.5 Billion have been better used to reduce CO2 and the impact of more expensive fuel bills on the public.

I'm honestly a little confused here. For starters, the "X considered harmful" clickbait title that doesn't actually talk about X but about a certain use of X to sell you an alternative tool feels weird. I also don't think that "focusing on tasks or issues daily" is different from "not getting the right stuff out the door". That's just a problem of how you use the tool, isn't it?

But I honestly don't see the fundamental difference between this tool and, say, my Gitlab issue tracker. Not just from the home page but even going into the guide. You have work items, Gitlab has issues (funnily enough, I was just reading before that Gitlab is migrating under the hood to "work items" to integrate issues/epics/incidents into a single entity), both can break down a single item into multiple ones, have a collaborative document at the top, an activity feed, roadmaps, labels... I don't what's the feature that would make me migrate development workflow to yet another tool (with more costs possibly, because 100 work items doesn't look like much if you deal with multiple projects).

It is not a silly question, it is quite shocking how many apps do not even have basic search working in any useable capacity. Outlook is one of them (I believe there used to be a Lookout plugin of some sort to add it on, but I think it died after a few years), the search function seems useless to me.
You can absolutely initialize bitfield members in structs, not sure where your memory is from… maybe it was broken on some specific compiler vendors/versions?

I’ve definitely desired an operator that combines these before. I’ve settled on &== as the best syntax in C-style languages, with a &== b being equivalent to a & b == b (but with a single evaluation of b).

if (mask &== WGPUColorWriteMask_Alpha|WGPUColorWriteMask_Blue) { … }

I find only two very minor problems with it: firstly, that it’s not commutative (that is, a &== b is not equivalent to b &== a). Secondly, that it can be confused with the bitwise-and assignment operator &= (a &= b being equivalent to a = a & b for singly-evaluated lvalue a).

I’d then add |== for consistency and because it is conceivably useful. ^== is tempting, but since a ^== b would be just another spelling of a == 0, I’d skip it.
Thanks for your comment! The main point we wanted to come across is that issue trackers are _not_ designed for best of practice product development practices. Still, teams use the for product development, and there are challenges to that.

Using issue trackers to track bugs is great.

Grandma's Wifi up the street -> Public Library Network -> VPN1 -> Tor -> VPN2 /s
Love it. Bought the 13" M1 MacBook Pro last year, ended up giving it to my son who has become a songwriter/producer monster during COVID lockdown times...

He does crazy amounts of track layering in Logic, as he's new to this and isn't familiar with all the effects or pro workflows, so he stays in analog and just stacks tracks for chorus and delay.

I mention this as an example of first-party creative app with a RAM intensive usage pattern... and the M1 MacBook Pro doesn't seem to notice. It just works.

I got a MacBook Air for myself. Definitely the better machine for me.

My weird usage patterns: systems work, virtual machines, backups and software builds.

I run MS Windows 11 Pro VM via Parallels, and it works fine. Note that's the ARM version. Also Ubuntu or any other Linux. I've been using UTM, a QEMU GUI app, as well, as a native ARM virtual machine for macOS. Also I ran into something that could only run on old x86 Windows, the UTM emulator worked great for that.

Huge downloads for system software updates - 12GB is pretty crazy. That said, I've re-flashed my MacBook Air a couple of times, using Apple Configurator 2 on the MacBook Pro and a Thunderbolt cable. No problem. You don't need to do this! But even that extreme of flashing the whole system back to factory setup, it works.

I purchased some expensive (for me) extras from OWC: their Thunderbolt 4 dock and external SSD. The speed of this thing! I was able to get a complete disk image off my son's laptop between studio time and him running off to college, a rush job that wouldn't have been possible to do like that otherwise. I'd prefer a more rational approach to data management, but creative work in the field, sometimes you just grab and go, or you don't get the shot.

I use the Thunderbolt dock for my desk setup, with some cheap used Dell 27" 4K monitors. Works ok, not sure how I feel about screen mirroring or multiple monitors. But it works.

I used to code NodeJS services on my phone quite a lot when I was commuting to an office. I used Termux - https://termux.dev/en/. It was brilliant, and worked far better than you'd think it would. The main problem was the keyboard because the stock Android one doesn't support a lot of symbols. I solved that with https://github.com/klausw/hackerskeyboard.
My 3950 has an economy bios mode, bringing it down to 65 watts (for 16 cores). I expect the 7600X (and the others) will have something similar. If you're running linux, you can also override the cpu scaling governor, and either force the frequency down (or up), or you can set it to conservative mode. Conservative mode will preserve energy when the load is low, at an almost unnoticable cost to responsiveness, but still provide close to full power when the cpu is under real load.

Under load, AMD is still going to be a lot more energy efficient than current gen Intel, even without such a setting. And on idle, the TDP is not really relevant.
Funny that was the exact same thing I thought when I read this.

I use Paddle on https://webtoapp.design and went through their and my TOS with a german lawyer. Basically they're only responsible for payments & customer support (however most customers come to me directly or get directed to me, as Paddle can only really resolve billing issues).

Paddle checked my site & product 3 times to make sure it complies with their requirements (an important aspect in my case was that my app creation process is automatic and not done by hand). I always got in touch with a human quickly, both during the account setup and later when I needed help (through chat or sellers@paddle.com). In fact I'd say it's probably the best support experience I've ever had.

Regarding your sign-up questions:
- Back when I signed up there were no such options but now I'm in "Standard Digital Goods" which seems to be the catch-all for everything that doesnt fit into one of the more specific categories.
- I had integrated Stripe and Paypal (never again) already, so I didn't have that problem. You could use a "Contact Us" placeholder to manually process payments I guess. If you immediately apply to Paddle then, you shouldn't have to keep that up for long anyways.

Far from a time-wasting "SEO game", comparison pages would be highly informative content (an unavoidably detailed and accurate product description) and a very good advertisement (showing and not merely telling how and why whatever one's currently using or considering is inferior).

This might be frequency illusion especially with so much recent news. What is the association, obsession or compulsion of rich people buying yachts? It is almost cartoonish in its villainy/greed but I wonder if they are aware of this perception, or simply don't care? Is there some switch that gets flipped where someone decides they need their own yacht, is it the circles that they frequent where it becomes the next thing on the checklist?

Also, the rollout of fibre in the 80s was intentionally stopped by Thatcher as it would make it hard for American owned companies to compete.

> Unfortunately, the Thatcher government decided that it wanted the American cable companies providing the same service to increase competition. So the decision was made to close down the local loop roll out and in 1991 that roll out was stopped. The two factories that BT had built to build fibre related components were sold to Fujitsu and HP, the assets were stripped and the expertise was shipped out to South East Asia.

Checking how many language subtleties you can point out is no doubt a good interview if you're looking for people experienced in a specific language.

It strikes me as so different from what the FAANGs are doing: they ask you to write trivial algorithms on the whiteboard, which apparently filters 99% of engineers.

Theoretically you can have a good candidate that doesn't know e.g. that appending to a slice passed in a function argument is a recipe for disaster. You'd show them the door over something that they could learn in a day.
Emoji as the term is currently used did not, but graphical emotion/tone indicators did under a different name: emoticons. They were usually small gif files, sometimes animated but usually not, manually referenced with img tags in your own designs rather than simply being available in commonly installed fonts (so insertable as text if you know the right unicode code/sequence) as we find today. Some forums / BBSs would automatically translate text-based smilies to relevant emoticons or provide their own syntax to add them such as [smiley-face].

Emoticons descended from the text versions referred to as smilies (https://www.csh.rit.edu/~kenny/misc/smiley.html). The two terms did often get confused (or just deliberately used interchangeably).
Would be pretty bad transparency if the code providing it wasn't transparent haha.

Thank you for the thoughtful feedback!

Easy one first - pricing. It's always a challenge but we try to find something that's reasonable when compared to the competition. We're not big fans of tools that do limited time feature stuff (this feature only works for the first two weeks unless you pay) so this is what we're trying for now. We're very flexible with teams as well. If they don't feel like they've gotten a fair chance to try it out, we raise the limit and let them keep trying for free. We'll gladly take your money once you're satisfied.

With regards to GitLab or any other traditional issue tracking tool - if you're able to get this sort of a workflow where your team is really focused on the outcomes and not mechanically processing tickets, then that's great! We're not building the only tool in which this is possible, just building a tool that we feel does a great job of nudging people in the right direction.
Of course I would prefer a native app, but I don't think it is unreasonable of me to expect a web app to:

- Respect the UI conventions of web browsers and not override standard behavior

- Respond immediately to user input

- Not take up hundreds of megabytes of RAM

I have yet to use a React app that doesn't immediately "feel" like it's using React. There's some weird added latency that I can't really describe, but I don't feel it on Angular apps.
For years I have used preev.com as a simple crypto conversion tool because of it's simplicity. Now that preev seems to have died permanently, I was left without a nice simple tool to use, so inspired by that simplicity I had a crack at building my own!

I agree with this. The harder the thing is you're doing, the bigger your moat. Ideally it shouldn't be too hard for you though of course, e.g. because you have prior knowledge about it.
It makes sense from the point of acquiring the expertise to build and essentially building an outer world haven in case a global catastrophe takes place.

The problem is: this kind of "nerd talk" that you are enthused about often comes across as awkward in particular to business-minded people.

In other words: I can perfectly understand why many developers have bad experiences with talking to people: too different interests and thus quite a lot of bad experiences in the past.

Thanks for you comment! Gitlabs issue tracker is one I'm not super familiar with. There are definitely other popular and well-known issue trackers which would, by design, make it harder than it should be.
C has them and their implementation seems to be universally disliked. Using an external crate with an implementation that people do like, with the possibility to substitute another if you disagree, seems better than to force a specific implementation into the language (that people will then replace with external dependencies or that people will learn to avoid as a concept).
Congratulations, might be a good product but now I could never consider it because "considered harmful" posts are not only incendiary but usually completely wrong and is 99% of the time someone who doesn't know what they're talking about trying to force deprecation onto everyone else.
Of course it doesn't make any sense. Cooperation is always more beneficial to both sides than isolationism. But Emperor Xi has decided to rule forever, so in a case of severe internal economic crisis he may decide to wage a Small Victorious War (tm), just like every dictator did since the beginning of times. Also I read that they have a doctrine which says that Taiwan need to be occupied, but I may be wrong about exact details here.

And embargo is not a given thing, just see ruzzia today. Critical exports are allowed because they are simultaneously critical imports for others. I think any Chinese military action would show immediately just how impotent "world organisations" really are. I bet there would be close to no real consequences for China after annexation of Taiwan.
