This is a bad example: local knowledge (popular scams, exploits, software, etc) does play a nontrivial role in determining what the population of threats looks like; this activity is in part socially determined. So having a more diverse crowd of researchers -- with all else equal -- can improve your research group's understanding of what threats are out there. Diversity gives you edge here. Unless of course, the graph analysis research isn't really about the applications and that was just some bullshit to drum up funding.
I worked in medical device quality control and so, yes, I know all about the FDA requirements for medical devices and ISO 13485.

>Last week the New York University (NYU) psychology professor announced that he would resign at the end of the year from the Society for Personality and Social Psychology, his primary professional association, because of _a newly adopted requirement that everybody presenting research at the group's conferences explain how their submission advances_ "equity, inclusion, and anti-racism goals." It was the sort of litmus test against which he has warned, and which he sees as corroding institutions of higher learning.

This sounds bad! Not all research has anything to do with equity, inclusion, or anti-racism.

>all social psychologists are now required to submit a statement explaining 'whether and how this submission advances the equity, inclusion, and anti-racism goals of SPSP.'"

Oh, so it wasn't a "litmus test" or hard requirement.

Emphasis on "whether". His research didn't have to do anything with DEI. He could have very easily just said "This research has nothing to do with equity, inclusion, and anti-racism." and been done with it, but instead chose to make a mountain out of a molehill and rage-quit his position in this association to make himself a martyr for the anti-DEI movement.

>As of now, everybody presenting research at the society's upcoming conference will have to pledge that their work advances political goals.

This is a lie that is disproven by quotes provided in the article. Once again, you are not required to "pledge" anything. You just have to state whether your research has anything to do with EIAR, and if it does, what it has to do with EIAR.
Germany paid Poland $8b in reparations in 1992: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II_reparations
The error handler is the kernel. Whatever code runs to dump the panic somewhere must rely on some sort of device driver, which in turn must depend on other kernel subsystems and possibly other drivers to work.

There is an enormous variation in output targets for a panic on Linux: graphics hardware attached to PCIe (requires graphics driver and possibly support from PCIe bus master, I don't know), serial interface (USART driver), serial via USB (serial over USB driver, USB protocol stack, USB root hub driver, whatever bus that is attached to)... There is a very real chance that the error reporting ends up encountering the same issue (e.g. some inconsistent data on the kernel heap) while reporting it, Which would leave the developers with no information to work from if the kernel traps itself in an endless error handling loop.

Is DEI gravity?

Imagine giving papers that described how they advanced Christendom priority.

Ironically, "saluting" DEI in academic papers has the opposite of the ostensibly intended effect.

Political alignment of professors favors the left by 9 to 1. If anything, favoring DEI will cement "academia's typical cronyism".
> I challenge you to defend the proposition that focusing on making a given piece of software work or adding features is less important than "toxic" behavior. As a user, do I care that, say, notepad++ was created in an environment that was not "toxic" or that it does what I want it to do and that it does it well? To me, at least, the choice is simple and not controversial at all.

For starters, the survey was given by StackOverflow, so my interpretation is that these responses were given by people about what they would prefer as developers working with other developers. It seemed to me that the idea was that some people did not feel like they were being treated fairly when as members of the tech community, but I guess I could be inferring incorrectly.

As for the actual question, this seems similar to me to the question of whether we have obligations to others in society or if things are "everyone for themselves". This obviously is predicated on the fact that the complaints of the survey responders are valid (which my previous comment is my attempt at explaining my view on), but assuming they are valid complaints, the question is whether I should care about the treatment of people who made a product that I use. There's a spectrum of potential issues that they could have to deal with; I don't pretend that everyone will react the same way to if notepad++ were being developed by workers who were forced without pay to develop 12 hours a day to if they no longer got free coffee in the break room, but there's undoubtedly a line we have to draw somewhere about what we're willing to tolerate and even a spectrum on what "toleration" looks like. Personally, I don't have any issue with the idea that the people who make the software I use would insist on an environment free from harassment, and I wouldn't want new features at the expensive of the treatment of the people who make it. This feels pretty simple and non-controversial to me, but I guess this could be my own confirmation bias that makes it surprising that anyone would feel differently.
Thanks for this. I hadn't considered googletagmanager.com but that appears to be the likely culprit as it is the common denominator between these sites.

Not only that, but they remain in power with fantasy mandates, because people who hated them were forced to rank them.

Oh, I do software by trade. The bakery is because it started as a family business that I helped get off the ground. My background is in B2B payments and construction software. Even though the bakery doesn’t make as much money as software, there’s a whole other world of experience to be gained by running a blue collar business that runs 20 hours a day, 7 days a week. Very very different that a software shop.

But to your point, most ERP planning software for bakeries sucks badly, like really badly. One of the prominent ones you can purchase today runs off a JET database from the 90s, with the “cloud” version just being Citrix access to a VM. but they all seem to universally require you to print out paper every day for every shift, so a ton of people just fall back on Excel (using bakers math) to pan production, daily. My software runs on an iPad that is kept at each station for kind of shift, and it spits out packing sheets and invoices from Quickbooks, and integrates with our delivery route planner. It would be a full time job to be calculating everything from mix quantities to how to pack the final product, without mistakes, 7 days a week.

There definitely needs to be better tools for the lay-person though. None of my staff can make changes to our custom software, but also it is basically impossible to recreate it with low/no-code tools. Hence Excel…

OK, now make a molecule which gives you a trip without the psychological effects.

I'm not sure that's even possible.

> How would you communicate with the router without an ethernet connection to it?

Using the Ethernet port is exactly what I'm suggesting. This is far simpler than using the serial number as the wifi password, and more secure than a universal password.

Furthermore, there are legal liabilities involved with the wifi spectrum. Different countries reserve different bands in the spectrum and have different limits on transmission power. OpenWRT would have to provide different builds for different countries, maintain and validate this list and risk making costly legal mistakes here, or if there's some lowest common denominator, then risk giving OpenWRT getting a reputation for bad wifi.

No, best to let the user accept the liability of configuring their own router. The improvements in usability are marginal and the potential costs to OpenWRT are considerable.

> Google has always been a 'nerds trying to build a cool technology' company

That, also it feels like it replicates the college environments like MIT, where projects get funded by the university, large enterprises or the state (especially defense), so when a project gets 'deprecated' its generally due to the project funders wanting it. Since these are the end users, there is absolutely no problem in it - the end user wants it deprecated anyway. As far as I know, Google was born literally from such a state-funded project in MIT. This likely makes Google environment somewhat like a postdoc extension of that environment.

But this attitude is totally destructive when facing end users: Small businesses, individuals, artists, freelancers, NGOs, municipialities - practically ENTIRE rest of the world do not have the large funding and time that Google has inside and outside Google.

They can't risk their businesses getting broken every other year, less every 6 months, because some people at Google thing that v2 is something is 'better' even if its incompatible with v1 of the earlier product, breaking everyone's sites, apps, whatever and expecting them to spend the money and time they don't have to jump through those upgrade hooks.

Worst, are 'deprecations'. They are literal 'f*k you's to end users. Even if some service is deprecated with 3 months' of warning, the small business or individual won't have the time or energy to salvage everything and move it to somewhere else. It will cost a lot to them, and it will affect their income and livelihoods.

So people just avoid Google. Build on or use the most reliable organization that does not literally sh*t on their users whenever they feel like it.

> I tried setting up Google Analytics for a business and touched it after many years. And the sheer complexity of the documentation and puzzling talk of UA to GA4 migration left me with a sour taste.

Good example. How complicated analytics have become shows just how little Google understands its users and how little it is able to accommodate them. Yes, there is 'great engineering' behind a lot of the stuff, but the complexit, ugprade hoops, backwards-incompatible updates and outright deprecations literally kill any benefit.

In the case of analytics, all that complication is not really worth wasting time (and therefore money) for upgrading. The products came to a point of looking like phd thesis projects more than anything intended for the end users - you have to spend considerable time even as a technical person to learn the system to be able to even use it at an entry level.

I also have analytics on all my sites. I will probably replace it with something else when the upgrade time comes. No way in hell I want to go through another upgrade hoop in 2-3 years and spend all that precious effort and time for doing that.
> These are not your "top talent", these folks are still happily employed at their BigN job.

Assuming layoffs are both primarily designed to and effective at retaining general talent, both statements need more corroboration. Will they keep the ones who are "indispensable" in the short term, like an engineer who maintains a specific system? Often yes. Are they the best? Often no, and over-specialized knowledge is particularly irrelevant to another company. Even so, anecdotally Big Co layoffs seemingly affect all levels and all talent, almost indiscriminate. That's probably because there are many other factors before an individual-against-individual comparison is ever made. From a C-level perspective teams and even orgs are more likely to be top-of-mind.
And then they complain people pirate movies... why the hell people wouldn't?

We need physical media back. But, a little tweaked to modern way of consuming media.

It would cost exorbitant amount of money for a single person to watch all of what that person watches these days. You can't expect him to buy physical media for all of these. Rentals help, but, as again, you don't own them.

So, you can't afford to own all what you want, and renting is not owning at all. So, what's the solution?

Maybe, movie studios should start with "cheap-to-rent-but-costly-to-own" model initially when a movie releases, and gradually as the time passes, the movie now becomes same price to own as was to rent initially...

Extremism, regardless of ideology, tends to eventually evolve into the same final form—autocracy. By nature ideologues put their ideals above all else and are uncompromising in their world view. If you are unwilling to compromise your only choice to reach your desired goal is through autocracy.

While of course the speech freedom is pretty scarce in China, there are many things that the USG do without the legal ability.

Also, the massive attempt to deplatform Trump supporters also significant weakened my belief in the US's speech freedom.

I was doing before sauna quite often after workouts in the gym (well after weight lifting and not cardio, and not during summer) and it felt great. But it could have been 90% or even 100% the workouts. Its true that I often feel very tired after sauna, like a baby that just wants to sleep. Which may be great sometimes, but otherwise it isn't (ie coming back to work, or driving back for 1h from mountains).

IMO the straightforward part is coming up with functions to expose from the host program to the scripting language.

> Rust safety should be compile time. That’s the point…

Array bounds checks are one of the most important safety measures Rust takes, and those have to happen at runtime (if the optimizer can't prove they'll never fire). Similarly, locking types like `Mutex` of course do all their locking and unlocking at runtime, though they also use the type system to express the fact that they will do that.
Thanks for weighing in, and for drawing attention to the wrapped nature of dependabot-gitlab -- I didn't drill down into their implementation

As for the "watch out," I apologize if that came across as scolding or whatever, but in my company, and likely quite a few others, AGPL software is forbidden. Thus, maybe I have said "be aware" instead of "watch out," so I'll try to choose more neutral advisory language next time

Your "but it's just a CLI" is the nuance of the AGPL that I don't want to pay lawyers to disambiguate since this very thread was about running a GitLab bot, over the network, or in CI which is hosted on runners that connect over the network
