I've heard of it, second-hand in a fictional account of one of the wars, but have failed to find information about its use in Italy. Here's what I did find.

Quoting https://lieber.westpoint.edu/release-prisoners-war/ :

> First, able-bodied POWs may be partially or wholly released on parole or promise if national law of the detaining power that of the State of origin of the POW permits this (art. 21, GCIII). As explained by the 2020 ICRC Commentary to GCIII, Article 21: “Such release typically occurs in exchange for a pledge not to take up arms again in the same conflict. The practice of paroling prisoners of war has declined considerably since 1949. In addition, many States today prohibit members of their armed forces from accepting release on parole” (para. 1920). Prisoners of war released on parole are compelled to keep their parole or promise.

I can't tell if this means parole for those interned in a foreign country, or if they were allowed to return home under parole so long as they didn't fight.

In looking around, I also found https://ses.library.usyd.edu.au/bitstream/handle/2123/7995/W... about the parole system in the US Civil War. It comments:

> The American Civil War was the last western conflict where paroles were regularly employed and honoured by both armies. 14

where 14 is:

> There were instances of parole in the Franco-Prussian War (1870-1871), the Boer War (1899-1902) and the First World War, but in general terms, after the American Civil War, the practice began its demise. For the Franco-Prussian War, see: Michael Howard, The Franco-Prussian War: the German Invasion of France, 1870-1871 (New York: Routledge, 2004), p. 222. The Prussian army allowed French officers to leave on their parole after the Prussian victory at the Battle of Sedan. For the Boer War, see: Major Gary D. Brown, ‘Prisoner of War Parole: Ancient Concept, Modern Utility’, Military Law Review, vol. 156 (June 1998), p. 207. The Boer guerrillas tried to place British POWs on parole, but these were largely disregarded. For the First World War, see: Paul Robinson, Military Honour and the Conduct of War: From Ancient Greece to Iraq (London and New York, 2006), p. 156. The French placed some German officers on parole early in the conflict, but the practice was not reciprocated by the Germans

A comment at https://history.stackexchange.com/a/66023 says:

> In summer 1940, the German Wehrmacht had captured 2 million Dutch, Belgian and French soldiers. All of the Dutch and Flemish and about a third of the French POWs were released on parole because the Germans coulnd't supply them and already had half a million Polish POWs as workforce (de facto: slaves).

You'll likely have to ask in a more specialized forum to find the information and documentation you're wondering about.
The Vegas in-n-out was one of the worst I’ve ever been, tbh.

I hadn't thought about BattleBots in 20(?) years, until I recently showed the current season (the Golden Bolt tournament, aka "BattleBots 2015 Season 7" for some reason) to my son. It's good entertainment and a pretty solid show: the robot fighting is good, the whole thing is deliberately set up in the style of a boxing match (which works really well), everything is accessible to a younger or casual fan, and the robots and robot teams are the stars of it all. It's way better than I remembered. It's still got plenty of filler, but they only have so many minutes of robots fighting to fill the timeslot, so what can you do?
One would think, but how do you go from source control to deployment on the production server though? If they were editing files on the server directly, there could be a whole mess of symlinks and whatever else on there. Even worse, how do you even test things to see if you break anything?

It is a can of worms.

I figured it was conrad barski the moment i saw the art. I like that style.
Hmm, maybe. But I'm sure there's current of attitude, that some people have, where people think, any payment in exchange for narrative from the classes of the "downtrodden" is simply exploitation but I think that is both a disempowering perpetuation of an incorrect stereotype that tries to rob people of agency, plus a tactic of the upper classes to keep people down.

But then again even giving voice to class itself may be an incorrect stereotype that's disempowering. Uuhh...It's difficult to find the right language but I think we should just see people as people.

And that's what I'm really speaking to here even if I'm not replying to the intention of the parent comment, it doesn't matter: what I'm saying is still valuable and important.
There's a lot of podcasts with egregiously bad audio mixing. Which...c'mon guys it's a podcast. You should get that right. I've wondered if there's a way to use an algorithm to make people's voices a little easier to understand, like slightly exaggerating consonants or something.
> Anthropologist writes anthropology book about the anthropology of debt, currency, and money.

In which he misinterprets the history and ideas of mainstream economics, calls the safest securities on the planet a debt that will never be paid and spins bizarre conspiracy theories about the Iraq invasion.

> Graeber's great crime is debunking the myth that barter predates money.

This bullshit defense again. And the people who keep spouting this are happy to ignore what Graeber actually says about textbook descriptions of barter:

It's important to emphasize that this is not presented as something that actually happened, but as a purely imaginary exercise. To see that society benefits from a medium of exchange" write Begg, Fischer and Dornbuch (Economics, 2oos), "imagine a barter economy. " "Imagine the difficulty you would have today," write Maunder, Myers, Wall, and Miller (Economics Explairzed, 1991)...

Economics textbooks discuss barter as a thought experiment to hilight the utility of money. They don't care about the historical origins of money because they are out of scope and outside of field of study of economics. Graeber builds a nonsensical thesis based on the assumption that the whole of economics rests on this myth of barter.

> Graeber does not discuss finance, economics, accounting, monetary policy, etc.

Which makes Debt completely useless for someone like OP who is looking for Resources to understand deeply how money works.
I think you've not witnessed Ship of Theseus, but "build Ship2 next to Ship1 and start using Ship2 while Ship1 is still being used and keep saying you're going to migrate to Ship2 eventually but meanwhile Ship1 and Ship2 diverge and now you have 2 ships".

I recently witnessed this mess and it is an enormous mess. Don't build Ship2 in the first place. Instead, replace Ship1's mast and sails, and rudder etc until you've replaced all the parts in Ship1. That's the SoT approach.

You might have had to rebuild the dependencies.

I've been running the development branch, which has been working fine for me, but I've also rebuilt the dependencies a few times just to be certain.

One protip is to use symlinks for the training files.
I used the SCAN app exactly once about a year ago and loved it. However it only worked that one time. Every other time it could not connect.

It was truely great, it put so much trust in you. Self-checkout stations don't let you remove items, but this app let you edit the cart as you liked. Scanned something twice, not a problem. Put something back? just remove it.

Checking out was a 30second task, and it did feel a little weird. I had a whole cart full of stuff, scanned my phone, paid, and left. I put a lot of care into making sure everything was there and accurate, but I can see how easy it was to abuse. Easily could have not scanned half the things in there.

An interesting thing was that it didn't actually save much, if any, time. Maybe even took sightly longer overall. Scanning with the phone every time you added something means pausing in the store to do it, switching between scan mode and shopping mode wasn't seamless for me. Putting something back after you scanned meant fiddling with your phone for a little bit. Maybe if I was able to do it more then once it would have become significantly faster.
Is that already illegal? If so, no, if not, yes.

Being offensive is not the measure for applying censorship.
Many hotels do not even offer a microwave (ex. in NOLA). Laundry machines are too much to ask.

I never used laundry in a hotel, until the last time. It was almost trivial, in the 3-star hotel in Dallas, the laundry room was easy to find, the front office had detergent ready for $2 or something, and actual washing+drying cost another $2.

I know some people take issues with using public laundry machines, but then Airbnbs' are technically public machines too. So I don't really see them as a game-changer.
All we need to do is invent replicators like they have on Star Trek and we're home free. Just jigger atoms around and we're gold. Plus the transporter where we can just instantly transport anywhere we want to go in the world instantly.

The first mistake the article made was conceptualizing the org chart as a power ladder. Your boss isn't more "powerful" than you, in a lot of cases he isn't and relies on you and sometimes he/she is more powerful than you. It doesn't matter.

Ah yes, because it's the questions and not the answers that have ideological implications.

The translations change the individual words, and move words around to fit grammatically, but they tend to be fairly literal. See this literal word by word translation from the original Greek, and see how it's basically the same as the translation previously quoted:

I think you already gave the answer to your self, but didn't realize. You have two options:

1.) Leave this mess behind you and quit - and miss an opportunity to learn a lot about code, yourself, teamwork and solving real world problems

2.) Work together with your team and solve problems, that probably will improve your skills more than anything in your future

I recommend you to give 2.) at least 6 months, before your quit.

What I would recommend:

- Create a git repository (I would not init it on the production server, but copy the code over to your machine, init, experiment a bit, and if you found a reliable way, repeat this process on the server)

- For the first weeks, continue developing on the server with one main branch, but at least push it to a central repository, so that you have a kind of VCS

- Setup a dev system, that points to a cloned (maybe stripped down) prod database, where you can test things

- Add composer in dev and see, if you manage to migrate this to production

- As you said, you already have an API, that is called via curl. That might be the way out of your mess. Create a new API namespace / directory in the old code base, that is fully under version control, uses composer and as little of the OLD mess of code as possible (you won't get out of this with a full rewrite). Write unit tests, wherever possible.

- I recommend to use jsonrpc in your situation, because it is more flexible than CRUD / REST, but this is up to you

- Get SonarQube up and running for the new API and manage your code quality improvement

- New features go to the new API, if possible

- Start to move old features to the new API, create branches and deploy only ONE folder from dev to prod: the api directory

- The database mess is a problem, that you should not solve too early...

This should take roughly a year. Have fun ;)
We should stop trying to find comparisons or analogies to other situations. Social media is its own totally unique phenomenon. We need to analyze it from first principles. If we try to draw comparisons to print media, cafes, or whatever, we are just going to confuse ourselves.
What’s the trick? More page views?
Rulings are written to be digestible by the public. The public must be confident the judicial system gets things right.
In principle, with arena allocation you don't need to care about ownership at all, or at least you only care about it at the arena boundary.
Because doing a quick check takes less time than actually scanning and bagging all the items themselves?
Any of those links still kicking? It's cool to see what other people like about MeFi and it's the only place where some of that content lives.
Urgh - I got one of these - completely forgot that I'd set up a fogbugz account years ago. Don't know if these invoices are as a result of a hack, or whether it's because it's now owned by another company and they're pre-emptively "upgrading" previously free accounts to "paid" accounts in the hope that they're going to get some subscriptions...

The email had some vlaid account fogbugz account details, so it's at least coming from their database...

I was taught how to read and write in cursive at school, and it was mandated that all non-math assignments were written in cursive from 3rd through 6th grades.

That doesn’t change anything I said.

Why Adele?

No. Adele – the Design Systems Repository, is not named after Adele – the singer. This is a tribute to one of the most important computer scientists focused on graphic user interfaces, design patterns and object-oriented programming – Adele Goldberg. Adele Goldberg worked at XEROX PARC in the 70s and managed the System Concepts Laboratory where, together with Alan Kay and others, she developed Smalltalk-80 – an object-oriented, dynamically typed programming language that was meant to power "human-computer symbiosis".
But platforms can currently decide to censor stuff if that want - which usually includes porn. Now they can't.
Yes, on Netflix you can choose. Choosing the stereo mix does offer a significant improvement on hearing dialogue. Regrettably, it has no idea of sensible default or even choice of default, so it always goes to 5.1 even if your setup doesn't have it.
Those scenes look amazing on good TVs. Making bad screens show them well seems like a problem for the producers of bad screens to solve.

> Or am I missing some quite important?

I feel like you are. The operations you mentioned - clone, pull, “commit -a”, and push - are trivial. Nobody needs a nice UI for those.

But in real day-to-day use, I’m branching, merging, creating and applying stashes, cherry picking, rebasing, browsing the repo history, browsing specific file histories, diffing across branches, selectively committing specific changes in a file, etc. and it’s convenient to have a nice UI for the more advanced use cases.
I literally can't relate to this comment at all.

Interesting how the same action can be internalized so differently by different people.

Going anywhere with people adds a low level of stress that is completely avoidable by going alone. And at a movie, once the lights go down, the rest of the audience fades away and it's just me and the screen. Doesn't matter if I'm with friends or complete strangers or even if it's an empty theater other than me.
I, for one, am thinking this about them at this very moment!

The author makes this point explicitly: “The problem isn’t merely that Michael lacks his father’s warmth, though having it would have helped. It is that Michael wasn’t the founder. As Machiavelli explains, while principality is necessary to found states, republican institutions best preserve them. The perpetuation of states is the hardest challenge in politics—more difficult even than founding.”

One main, if not THE main point of the article is that the film adaptation of The Godfather injected 70’s Watergate cynicism making just such a comparison to US corruption which would have ruined other films but the comparison is made in the guise of sleazy self deception.
The very fact that a forum moderator is celebrated like a hero (who never says out loud that there is actually a team in existence), and a guy who called Microsoft dead as a genius next only to gos should tell you all you want to know about the average level of discourse here and quite frankly going against the flow is something I'll have to fault you with at this point since this place is pretty much conformation central.
I'm sorry. What!? Can you elaborate?
Well, according to Texas. They are now.
In a world where Facebook doesn't have a freedom of speech right to remove a post without also losing section 230 protection do you think freedom of association could cover removing specific posts or only banning users outright? Would Twitter's model of banning a user until they delete their own unwanted tweet(s) be okay?
Quit. Not because I think it's too big of a mess to fix, but because you don't fit. You won't change them and they won't change you.

There are a number of leftist and anarchist owned cafes around that operate at least partially on a pay what you can, or PWYC model for parts of their menu. Places like Lazy Cow Bakery in Seattle or The Anarchist in Toronto (https://theanarchist.ca/).

As someone who has been homeless and penniless, and now makes a senior engineering income, I really really appreciate the places that do this.
The intent of the first was specifically to keep the government from prohibiting your speech.

Social media sites are not the government -- they have their TOS like everybody else does. Love it or leave it.

It should also be noted that conservatives absolutely believe in banning speech they don't like. So it's not the principle of it, it's the power.
> He said to another man, “Follow me.” But he replied, “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.” Jesus said to him, “Let the dead bury their own dead, but you go and proclaim the kingdom of God.”

That man's father is still alive. When he says "bury my father" he means continue living with his father until his father dies and he then becomes fully independent and can have time to follow Jesus. Jesus says don't wait for some long future day, follow me right now. The guy isn't literally walking to the cemetery at that moment to bury his father.

> Still another said, “I will follow you, Lord; but first let me go back and say goodbye to my family.” Jesus replied, “No one who puts a hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God.”

Jesus isn't saying we shouldn't have ties to our family. Jesus goes with Peter to visit Peter's mother in law for example, and Jesus keeps in touch with his own mother. In this instance, Jesus sees this guy is making excuses and says we need to stop making excuses. Following God is more important than anything else and if we put off God in favor of family, that's wrong. We should still love our family and treat them with respect, but don't use them as an excuse to avoid following God.
