It's probably companies advertising their products getting salty their new movie or something got 90% downvotes and YT is all too eager to please its ad overlords.
Perhaps not, but China and India would definitely stop supporting Russia after that. China has a nuclear-equipped little madman of its own, so it needs to show what the consequences are for using nukes. India is also a nuclear country, bordered by another one, and can't imply Pakistan can just use nukes without consequence.

Why would you want an image-manipulation feature in a text editor (unless you were a developer who thought that it'd be a fun thing to work on)? That sounds like bloat of the worst kind...
It started in the last year. Before pretty much every single spam mail was filtered, now 1-2 per week still make it through.
What about people using smartphones?
You'd prefer that the rules of the scheme forbid address sharing, right? You're in luck: They do. Also you have to click explicitly that you want the mail from each particular campaign, and if 5% of people report a campaign's mail as spam, that campaign loses access to the scheme. (For a week the first time.)

> It really is a question of whether the language should change because of a new political status of Ukraine (and therefore all its speakers should change their linguistic habits); or whether this word should continue to be among the exceptions that take the preposition "на".

No. There is no need to change language. If in any given phrase one means Ukraine as a region, like Caucasus, then it is "на", if one means Ukraine as country then it is "в". With Ukraine becoming independent country most semantic contexts though from the "region context" have naturally become "country context".

The issue here is that Russians to intentionally demonstrate their unrecognition and disrespect to Ukraine use "на" (as in the "region context") when they really speak about Ukraine as a country and thus, by Russian language rules, must have used "в".

>The whole situation, in which people get annoyed about a grammatical factoid of another people's language is just... bizarre.

It isn't annoyance. It is tens (actually looks more like early hundred) of thousands people dead for the reason that that factoid demonstrate - Russian refusal to recognize Ukrainian right to exist and to exist independent of Russia.

Ideally you wouldn't have (or need) microservices! I'd rather deal with a monolithic rails app any day.

However, assuming you've got them, BFF means only one group has to get the following right:

* User authentication

* Web performance analytics

* A/B testing

* More difficult bits of HTTP (fast TLS, prefetch, streaming responses)

If you have microservices but no BFF, you're pretty much stuck with your page being substantially rendered via js. Maybe that's okay for some things? I sure don't like it.

Not to be all megalomanic.. but I wonder what will be the last machine I personally wrote code for. Code we write nowadays is mostly targeted at virtual machines, or even if it's low level at some idealised hardware (apparently based on the PDP-11?). Or maybe we'll go back to be coding for machine learning accelerators or whatever lies in the future that constrains us to specific optimised hardware.

The problem with "c/c++" is not that the people using this notation are ignorant of their difference. the problem is that there is nothing preventing someone writing c in a cpp file. what is more, it is up to every one/every project to choose the cpp subset to use.

You are saying this like it's a bad thing.

Second you notice it surfacing things you don’t want to see because you accidentally clicked a rec you have to go into history and delete the video that brought forth the infestation.

So far I’ve found it does stop showing you if you remove what caused it from history.
Yep.

It is true for colliders and also a big issue for heavy ion fusion, which on one hand seems more feasible than laser fusion because of the very low efficiency of laser drivers in comparison, but boy you need a huge (kilometer scale) machine and probably 100 or so independent beams that are very high quality and well synchronized.
On the flip side, 6xA78 cores with decent range of IO (7 PCIe 3 lanes for example) is quite nice. There aren't many SoCs that individuals can really use that are comparable.

> so I guess TB is also slow

I'm a long-term TB user. I have noticed fairly severe UI lag in recent releases - say, the last couple of years. E.g. I click on a folder in the left pane, and it takes up to a second for the contents to appear and the folder be highlighted. Not every time, but often enough to cause input mistakes. Other applications running at the same time do not exhibit this lag.

I haven't reported a bug; it's so noticeable, I assume someone else already has.
A thing that I noticed is that Youtube recommends me completely different video's when I'm at work (mostly music) then when at my desktop at home (complete mix of interests). And different video's when i'm on my phone (documentaries).

It seems the system is coupled with your device and time of day.

Funny thing is, I never get recommended music on my desktop and at work I never get documentaries recommended.

The system works well enough for me.
hmmm. I'm a regular emacs user w/ Doom configuration on top of emacs. I love emacs and I use it exclusively, however it does crash sometimes for me. It's enough to notice, but not enough for me to care.
Great advice; I did some Scala like ten years ago and put it on my CV and linkedin. Then the recruiters kept sending me offers for a Scala job.

But... I don't know Scala anymore, I don't LIKE scala, and I don't WANT to do scala.

So it's a bit of a trade-off; on the one end, you want your CV and linkedin profile to reflect how amazing you are, how many things you know, etc. But on the other, you want it to be an invitation for people to approach and hire you for something YOU want to be doing.

I've updated my linkedin to reflect what I'm fairly good at - web front-end - because that's job guarantee, and what I want to be doing - Go - for whoever wants to take a punt on it. And I'll keep tweaking it towards what I WANT to do. I'm sure I'll keep mentioning what I've worked with in the descriptors of different jobs and projects, but I will de-emphasize the list of technologies in the summary section.
> This is a really bad situation for anyone in a country that speaks English as an official language

I know this is pedantic, but if you're going to make an appeal using something like this, at least be more exact and really know your facts. English is by far the most spoken language in countries like the US and UK, but they aren't official languages.
It was important. As the Ukraine already attacked targets there, recently Russia moved their submarine base from Sevastopol to some mainland harbor. That means, effectively this harbor has been lost to Russia as a consequence of the war.

Never mind that the Bosporus is closed for military vessels.
I mostly agree. But:

- image cropping in an image viewer is useful if you'd like to quickly crop screenshots before posting,

- you can already view images in emacs.

So the irksome bloat is likely already there, and stems from emacs not only being a text editor, but an operating system onto itself.

This is what I get for a public IP used for some of my websites:

IMO, the clear choice for this is Math Academy. It was started by a very, very early Uber contractor who built the early versions of their dispatcher, their profiler and also the grid system that helped them scale and pretty much saved them during new year's in 2013. Since becoming wealthy from Uber's IPO, he's been pouring money into hiring experts and building the curriculum.

The first step was a non-profit program started as part of the Pasadena public school system's offerings that other schools are free to adopt. It's taken students from basic arithmetic to calculus by 9th grade and through a fully undergraduate curriculum by the time they finish high school. His son was one of those students and must be part of why he's been willing to invest so heavily for so many years.

There's now a commercial online version open to the public. The founder hasn't done any marketing of it yet, but I found out about it through a mutual friend / podcast co-host. Math Academy is very comprehensive and the most streamlined way I know of to learn, or in my case, relearn an undergraduate applied math curriculum. It's not as polished, but the content and the actual academic results make offerings like Brilliant.org look like a joke.

I requested a life-time deal last year for access myself and intend to make the most of it, likely in binges between busy periods at work.

That’s how bundling economics work. The additional marginal cost of providing you those books is zero, particularly if you never download them.

It's true that writing code in safe Rust does not make other non-Rust code safe.

Nevertheless, the more code we write in Rust, the safer we will be. Especially because popular kernels and system libraries are often very well tested these days, whereas application code newly written by developers of varying skill levels likely won't be.
I constantly receive the same kind of gmail spam: there's a package for me. Half a year already, 3-4 a day, from random addresses like rp.6sgzBKV9UH@mail.4t2d3uxkxo.com / over corpegg.com whatever that is.
Having read the article and several of the other articles it links to, I strongly disagree calling it a "pure lie". People are choosing euthanasia for, among other reasons, the lack of financial means. There are several of such stories in the article. The case of the woman with chemical sensitivities which you cite chose medically-assisted death mostly due to her inability to find suitable housing free from cigarette and pot smoke from neighbours, which seems like a financial means problem to me.

Is it inflammatory and pointed? A bit, yes. But that's okay, and that's a very different thing than "pure lie".
I like how Russian forces have various estimates, but for Ukrainian forces we take Ukraine data for granted, while the truth is both countries are highly likely downplaying their losses, same as both of their dictators are same corrupted thieves as proven in Pandora Papers last year when they were appearing together in all articles. Can't believe someone believes any data coming from these 3rd world countries.

Either the site must be completely inaccessible to EU citizens (no matter whether user will consent to cookies or not) or it must be accessible even after rejecting consent, there is nothing in between.

This stance would make sense if Youtube had decided to block them. That is not what happened.
That's not that easy in practice. There's less than 2k exits normally, not all of them usable. Your abuse script competed with other malicious traffic for those exits and their reputation gets burned pretty much immediately.

So yes, you can switch exits easily, but effectively your switching from one known bad IP to another bad IP.
Well, if maintainers were not that reluctant to saying "no" to breaking changes, the stories like that would be few and far between. But let's be honest, maintainers do like breaking changes a lot, unless they are in stuff they themselves use.

It's also not true that every single programmer is like Bob to the tee, demanding, being outraged. I've seen issues that had been closed even if the reporter was polite to the extreme. This post is trying to describe a strawman, so when you hear any complaint about your stuff breaking other stuff you imagine an entitled prick. This is not so, by far.

In most cases, it's not like software is all well-oiled machine, except for that one tool. You have multiple libraries and tools that you need to combine so it all works, and because each and every one of them has quirks, bugs, defects, holes, you get to be generous with glue at places so it all works in the end. You tend to spend uncountable amount of time nudging them to work together. And all of those libraries, tools, applications, utilities are each moving at their own pace, having its own little ways, and of course having lots of stories about ungrateful users.

And guess what, the vast majority of them is silent. They see how swiftly are issues being closed, they are too tired to speak up. What for? You're going to close the issue anyway.

Those that speak up, usually are polite. In many cases, I've seen people going overboard only after maintainer had played dumb for a long thread of comments and refused to even understand what the problem was about. Few people go to issues to actually vent or demand.

In exceedingly many cases, you may only get your bugfix that you absolutely need, but it's inevitably bundled with new features you could totally do without, and regressions which make you think that life is only about picking your poison repeatedly, until you die.

In the end, all the stories of this kind end up about being egotistic pricks shouting past one another but refusing to ever listen.

I lost my hope to live in a world where we are excellent to each other, but maybe being good enough to one another would be achievable, wouldn't it?

Makes me think of the LARP club in my area where you can pay to be a player or be an NPC for free.

It’s one of those areas (like trading items in online games like Krunker) where some precedents exist w/o a blockchain that prove an idea that sounds alien at first can really appeal to somebody but blockheads don’t talk about them because they also prove nobody needs the blockchain.
I don't think it's surprising. People do things for ROI and specifically quality of life ROI.

Once the retirement system is socialized or provided by insurance the role of kids for future retirement support immediately goes out of the window and so is the ROI. You privately spend 1 million dollars each to raise them, but society gets to reap the rewards collectively. It's a losing proposition and only a non-smart person would commit to such agreement.

If countries want to raise their birthrates they should immediately liquidate all their pension funds and insurance funds (both public and private) and transfer the stock/bonds owned by such entities to the holders of such rights.

Also countries should stop policing how people raise their kids. Many parents might want a slightly more ignorant kid in the realm of philosophy/English/math... but prioritizing values of family and most importantly the only value that matters to them: taking care of parents as they enter old age , when I say taking care I mean both financially and socially.
