Was it just me or was that doc basically about addiction and abuse? I remember some friends thinking it made the guy look good but all I could remember is the horror of how he treated his family.
This, extremely interesting and unique documentary.
Came here to see who else likes The Thin Blue Line. But please, do not reveal the outline. I went in completely unawares and was kept on the edge throughout.
You're guaranteed to make little money, yes. The big publishers make most of their revenue from a small number of titles that make publishing any other title viable.
"...with information it doesn't have."

That's my point. But when it eventually gets that info it shouldn't be impeded in updating as is the present system.
I don't really think those things you just listed are truly part of the every day accepted definition of social media.

Unless your line manager authorised the secondment (in which case, why PIP?), it wasn't on official assignment, it was just a personal request from someone who happened to be in a higher management position.
Apparently there's an active defamation lawsuit by Mitchell against Twin Galaxies, so there's a very concrete reason for people to care about whether the allegations are true.
Honestly, I did not catch that part. I still think it's a poor idea, but that's only my opinion. If they really don't want weak typing, then yeah, TS it is.
Time to throw in some controversy:

Interesting. If you use curl -v, you can see that the difference is that the newer version of curl canonicalizes(?) the Host: header to "1.0.0.1", which the server recognizes and responds to with a redirect. The older version sends "1.1" as the Host: header, which the server doesn't recognize, so you get a "403 Forbidden" response with the cryptic "error code: 1003" in the body.

I get the same behavior from other nonstandard ways of specifying 1.0.0.1, like "curl http://01.00.00.01/"
Maybe it would work, but I can't see myself ever using a font without lowercase letters.
> In certain circles, being pro-nuclear is a way to be climate-aware and pro-science while also signaling a kind of masculine tough-mindedness and hippie-punching attitude

Followed not long after by:

> I am in fact more pro-solar than conventional liberals. I want to stamp out the anti-solar NIMBYs who elevate saving random trees or historic preservation over generating more solar power.

Seems a bit self-unaware.

> If [new nuclear tech] works out, the benefits could be very large simply because energy is really good, and if you want more and more energy it’s useful to have sources that don’t take up as much space as the endless proliferation of utility-scale solar projects.

And it looks like he was lying about being really pro-solar as well.

Wait, this is the same guy suggesting we should use government money to further subsidize fossil fuels?

Most computers adapt just fine. International travel and cooperation are the real problem, especially in our increasingly globalized world.

That's a good point. TS is still very helpful for catching things before build time, but I don't always want it to actually stop me from doing certain things (which I know can be overridden but that takes more actions).
When I last discussed this we ended up in a huge debate about whether we should be sending different log levels to different destinations, because of this dichotomy.

Debug messages shouldn't be stored on permanent logs (they frequently contain sensitive/private info). Alerts need to be sent to someone immediately (even if that's a different process monitoring the log file for alerts and raising them). Errors need context in order to diagnose them (ideally a stack trace). All of these are doing different things using the same interface.

Log levels end up being abused because of this. What we want is to be able to handle different situations differently. What we get is log levels.

If Zap and Zerolog can agree on a common interface, I think the rest of Go world would follow.
I'm not an expert either, i used VT-x, if that's what you mean.
Some hifi systems have a "loudness" setting that raises bass+treble to compensate for this effect at low volume.
James Cameron became jelous of Di Caprio and Kate Winslet and thus decided to only make movies about humanoids so that people would only think about him as they get out of the movie theatre.

I can't even name any actors in Avatar, they also went in hiding and not appearing anywhere.
I loved the AI driven piece recognition. It worked great!
But all the things around it are not that good for the price I'd be paying.
In particular, I'd like to be able to use the recognition to build a small db of all the pieces I have in each box, so that when I can't find a piece I can use the db to help locate it.
I believe it would have worked better, instead of building an app and targeting end user, to build an API service and target developers. This way many different products could be made with this feature.
"Ring of Fire, an Indonesian Odyssey" is at the top of my list. An incredible journey spanning 10 years. Allegedly bankrolled by Ringo Starr who was captivated by the premise, and had faith in the brothers who set out to trace the steps of naturalist Alfred Russell Wallace.

I don’t read it the same way; I read that he got reassigned, as he was “dead weight” to his manager.

Still bad, but probably means that all this was inevitable, and his manager already made up their mind before the project even started.
Yes, the long previews are intentional. Basically I wanted to have a full chapter from each book, then went through the rest of the book to select pages with topics that looked interesting, so I ends up with 100+ pages.

The full books are 600pp and 700pp respectively (on small paper format 5.5"x8.5")
Automated testing in Bevy
Personally, I would use Rust even if it was managed/not as low level. Advanced ML type system + best-in-class developer UX/tooling is the biggest selling point for me.
> track sessions-of-use, for adjusting design, even before any commerce or specific-identity info is disclosed. And that value flows not just to the websites: it helps adjust content/UI for the users, as well.

Tracking (regardless of whether cookies or other methods are used - the dumb idea that GDPR only cares about cookies needs to die) for essential purposes such as maintaining state for shopping carts/user preferences/etc does not require disclosure nor consent.
And it is one of the legacy tlds. Even if the entities managing them go down, someone will likely take over with same rules.
Appearances are soo important in jobs, much more than quality of work. This is why fully remote jobs are so great, people are on a more even playing ground.
I once had my ISP (BHN) assign me a public IP that ended in .0 That turned out to be a neat experiment. I regularly hit webpages and other services that would deny my connection. I guess they considered me multicast traffic or some sort of bogon.
"Stripped". It's about the comic book industry. It's also one of the few times that Bill Watterson, creator of Calvin and Hobbes, has been recorded.

This resonated with me due to the pressure on cartoonists to constantly produce.
Definitely correct: I didn't remember how to access them (I actually did it in the past, but forgot exactly how.
My point still stands, I believe: it's too hard, not prominent enough.
In particular I was disappointed by the "Manage subscriptions" link that brought me to a screen where I could not do that.
I doubt there is significant transfer between philosophy education and other tasks (like programming). Curiously, the people who should doubt this conclusion (the educated philosophers) are the ones that jump to accept it. Anyways, the literature on this matter is wide enough that our prior should be that there is no transfer and evidence to the contrary must be stated.
effectively the same place at this point. There's so many "standard" libs in /x that trying to constraint to "just the standard lib" has to include /x to be actually useful.
Are there any programming languages which consider adding new functions to the std library a breaking change?? I know it technically is, but it seems to me that this is ignored everywhere, not just in Rust.(because the chance of breakage is small, and you wouldn't be able to make much in the way of meaningful changes otherwise).

That's literally what the regulation stipulates. The vast majority of consent pop-ups you see are not compliant.

The problem is a lack of enforcement so widespread that entire businesses now specialize (and thrive!) in providing non-compliant consent flows as a service.
The key difference is my experience is not about destination - backends are as flexible as you say

One key difference is having an event name + properties, rather than a human-readable description and maybe some fields if you’re lucky

Another key difference is wrapping units of work rather than just scattering log lines in places you think need them somewhat arbitrarily
It's good work if you can get it! [0] But most people out there, even software engineers, aren't going to make 320k with minimal effort. I do agree with the overall idea that you should define "enough" for yourself, and slow down to enjoy life once you get there.

Nice! I was having fun with it, but then I got to "divide the segment in half". It's super easy, but it's too zoomed in for me to click on the snaps I want, and I can't find a way to zoom out. Clicking "full screen" gives the same level of zoom. What am I missing?

Edit: I just now tried Euclidea for the 1st time, and even tho its UX is a lot more polished, it starts off with lots of lines & midpoints. I appreciate that Ecocoru starts off with more circle-oriented problems, so that we can get a taste of using a compass. The 1st hexagon problem, though easy, was a joy to discover!

Haha fair play, async does seem to have been a bit of a journey: but it also seems to be shaping up nicely, and Rust is in good company vis-a-vis the every other programming language that has struggled to find a good story here.

I’m case there is any confusion about whether or not I value Rust: literally my current work pertains to designing a DSL and compiler for async state machines (not totally unlike MSR’s P Language) because I need a way to compose extremely complicated async programs with hard correctness and performance properties.

And while the implementation language is Haskell and the first target language is C++ because this is for $DAYJOB and I need C++ first, I have also gone to great pains to avoid anything that will stop the next target language from being Rust: it will soon generate idiomatic Rust code that ties into Rust’s Async story because I really like Rust’s Async story and I think/hope that Rust will be my primary low-cost abstraction language ASAP.
> Vue2 is the only of these three that can be added to a webpage with a script tag. In that sense, it is a lot more simple than the other options.

Not exactly what happened in the end. The house and senate in Georgia agreed on DST. However we can’t change to permanent DST yet. By Federal Law an act of Congress has to happen to change the law.

The movie has definitely got more people involved in this than normal, since they likely wouldn't have known about it otherwise. But cheating in competitive gaming like this is taken very seriously. Karl Jobst has covered a few scandals like Trackmania (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ww7x5elophk), and Guitar Hero (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58fqNL-kvaI) and the original Doom (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jv0ZRTlIXR0).

In this case it doesn't help that Billy comes across as very weird and unlikeable, the movie plays this up, particularly in contrast to Wiebe (who seems pretty nice) but it hurts him more that he's been a bit evasive and turned in a few questionable submissions.

And re the tallest-buildings-within-1%-of-each-other thing, that's just it. People who suck at a game and report outright fraudulent results are generally outed pretty quickly. But the big scandals - like the ones I linked above - often occur when those who are already at the very top of their game feel pressure to compete and cut a few corners to get a score or a time just ahead of what they are normally capable of achieving. And those communities are not centered around discovering who happens to be roughly in that top 1% of competitors, but around a leaderboard of ranked scores. They share tips, strategies and there are genuine friendly rivalries between competitors.
Telling the VP to get stuffed, you're only going to do what comes through the proper chain of command, is just going to get you fired immediately rather than PIPed.

Not saying there wasn't a way through this that could have led to a positive outcome, but the key takeaway isn't "do the dirty work", it's "make sure what you're doing has an impact, and has visibility from the people in charge of personnel decisions affecting you". Less work but greater visibility > more work and worse visibility. Part of your job is ensuring visibility or you will get shafted.
I can't tell you the mechanism by which cats purr. I don't think scientists have figured that out yet. However, I have figured out a mechanism by which I can purr.

Unfortunately, that involves a lot of airflow over my vocal cords on both inhale and exhale, so I can't keep it up for long. And the purr sounds slightly different on inhale versus exhale. And my purr is very fast and loud, compared to how slow and relatively quiet theirs can be.

I do suspect that my mechanism is similar to the one that cats use, because I've noted a similar difference in the sound of their purr on inhale versus exhale. But there are lots of other variables, too.

Unfortunately, our cats are kinda freaked out when I purr, so I don't do it often.

The movie "A Point in Time: The Corona Story" about the Corona spy satellite program. So many failures before success, and the program paved the way for so many better known later space launches.

> The CORONA[1] program was a series of American strategic reconnaissance satellites produced and operated by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Directorate of Science & Technology with substantial assistance from the U.S. Air Force. The CORONA satellites were used for photographic surveillance of the Soviet Union (USSR), China, and other areas beginning in June 1959 and ending in May 1972.

I'm of the opinion that we should use both. They're both fundamentally useful and solve separate problems, and I don't think there's any resource constraints that would make this an issue.

A logging API that just lets me write either a textual string, a structured telemetry object, or just both would be ideal. Then I can have either source separately, or I can view how they generated events collectively.

This is a slippery slope argument. Yes, the line becomes harder to define, but we can agree that there is a huge difference between the internet's public square and my small private forum.

If many of the functions that a government fulfills are now implemented by private entities, I want these private entities to inherit the limitations of power we place on governments. Is that ideologically inconsistent?

Maybe under perfect competitive capitalism, this wouldn't be an issue, but unfortunately this is not the world that we live in. I could cite many examples of free speech oriented social media apps that were shut down by their hosting provider, their payment processors, the two app stores, cloudflare, etc. Is it that different from a government shutting down a newspaper or preventing a group of citizens from assembling?

I would much prefer a technological solution rather than more government intervention (perhaps a move towards decentralized censorship-resistant hosting of content), but the first step towards a solution is to recognize that we have a censorship problem, even if the government is not directly censoring anything.
Not sure why'd you want to skip traditional stuff. A sketchbook, some pencils and micron pens will cost you 40$ and last a year. But anyway, for drawing there's almost no difference between digital/analogue if you use a tablet with a screen. I'd suggest an Ipad for sketching because it's small and portable. I used an old and small model and it worked really well - doesn't need to be the newest ipad pro.

Your example is a vector illustration and I've done very few of those. I started with a sketch in Photoshop or pencil or whatever and then traced it in by mouse or used some tracing filter in Illustrator and still cleaned it up with a mouse. So it wasn't really a drawing nor painting, not sure how vector pros approach it.

FWIW tracing in Go is primarily made more difficult by having explicit context propagation and no helper to auto-close a span based on scope. If you use Python or .NET for example, it's implicit and you can "just create some spans" like you would a structured log somewhere in your app, then use built-in language constructs to have it handle closing for you.
My usage of Photoshop is too basic that I can manage with cheaper alternatives. The Foss offering, however, is too difficult to use for me.

There is photopea.com that should cover needs of most people and affinity photo for more advanced photo production. Not free but single purchase somewhat reasonably priced at $40. Its very user friendly but not too limited at the same time. I like it.

I strongly disagree with the advice given in this article.

Two main reasons:

1. This is essentially advice someone who puts his career ahead of everything else that matters in life, i.e. I'm happy to eat shit as long as it advances my career. If that's what you really want from your life, more power to you, but that's probably not for everyone.

2. Not everyone will have the skill level to fit that profile but if you happen to have been gifted with the luck to work on stuff for which you are truly passionate, you will both tremendously enjoy going to work every day *and* advance your career effortlessly.

This article sounds like a recipe for early onset depression. Everyone will have to regularly perform shitty, unpleasant work in their career, but unless you balance it with some amount of creative, fun and rewarding work, you're going to be miserable, and by way of that, not be very performant.
An unfortunate incident, but was that repeated? To my knowledge the community has significantly calmed down after that incident, exactly because it was an unprecedented drama and many agreed that the drama is bad.
I'm hopeless with remembering actors' names and haven't rewatched Avatar in over 10 years but Sigourney Weaver and Sam Worthington's names immediately came to mind. The lead female protagonist I couldn't tell you though, and doesn't appear to have capitalised much on that breakout role.
