not necessarily. But at least one of the major Coarray implementations (Intel Fortran compiler) translates the Coarray syntax to MPI so that the Intel MPI library can be used underneath.
As a counter-example, the NAG Fortran compiler implements Coarrays for shared-memory architecture, and apparently has nothing to do with MPI.

This rule was rarely (if ever) enforced when people would change their account name temporarily as a one-off joke.

Also from the page you linked:

Accounts with a history of repeated violations may be permanently suspended.

correct me if i'm wrong but won't your phone prompt you to explicitly allow access to a service when the app requests it? When the Tim Hortons app asks to use your location can't you Just Say No? ...or at most allow once.
> the "what" could be: "A method of reducing the number of online sales that are attempted but somehow aborted".

That's a good point. But it does open the door to patenting so many things it would make business impossible - store layout? Ad composition? Sales timing? Employee treatment?

Fortunately the law does not seem to have such a broad view of what is patentable: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patentable_subject_matter#Unit...

The other problem is the 'could' in your hypothetical - as far as I know, that's not what Amazon put on the patent application. Probably because they knew it is not patentable subject matter.
I see completely contrarian picture about manipulation: you try to manipulate me and others (who read us) that abrupt quitting is the only way to go and that thinking about how to lessen harm to my colleagues is amoral as it is further goals of the owner of the company.

You equate company to the owner, I think that company is also other people.

So I think this "myth" will probably persist for a while.
On the web interface: I paste the handle in the Search box under my Home page, click the search button. The user is found, I click on the hit, user's page appears in the right-most pane, I click on Follow. In the Tusky App: top right corner is Search, tap on it, paste the handle in the search box, tap to the ACCOUNTS tab (have forgotten couple of times to do that! - default tab is POSTS), then press Enter, the user is found, tap on the hit, tap on Follow. Not that different to any other similar social service (TW, FB) tbh. If anything - Twitter search I've found harder to navigate in the past. Fwiw - Twitter and Mastodon are different, there is no one-to-one replacement. I've been using both, there are pros and cons. Twitter has superior SNR for my interests.
I would have thought that a mobile telco could generate this data already just from what they need to route data (and voice calls) to each phone, at least to a somewhat coarse level, without needing to have apps upload this.
Shrinking globalism has a lot of causes so I don't want to overstate the case here, but one big part of the drive to pull back from it is the PRC's own currency manipulation and leveraging of its manufacturing bottleneck for geostrategic aims. They have themselves to blame partly.

But really, their demographic precipice is what's going to stall them out. I hope their political system is functional enough to let it transition into something that can continue functioning after the end of a turbo-growth economy without collapsing into a Putin-esque kleptocracy or go the way of 20th century Argentina with constant coups and general political chaos.
Subpoenas are based on information you have. Where is the law or regulation that says they need to keep it?

Telcos keep it because it helps them with network capacity planning and is incredibility financially lucrative when they want to sell the data. It's probably more to fill in their data product for malls and fine grained location than to do it for subpoenas, which if they had a choice would probably rather not have to do.
It's probably not at all the "industry" terms, but I would divide "push advertising" (TV, radio, web ads, blah blah blah) from "pull advertising" (going to the company website, asking for the catalog, etc).

What is sad is how "push advertising" can become something actually desired - once you buy into a luxury brand, for example, you WANT advertising that reinforces just how good and sexy you are for having bought product.

Yeah, there's a lot of bad patents, especially in the tech sphere, where the patent office & judges lack expertise to evaluate both what's in use and what's obvious. E.g. when someone almost successfully patented the concept of a e-"shopping cart" after it was in widespread use (also it's painfully obvious).

Like how MS ignored the hosts file if you tried to use it to block windows update. Ultimately MS has final say on what you're allowed to do on windows and they can force updates that disable or enable any kind of behavior they want. It's their system.

If you don't trust MS, don't use windows or at least never ever let connect to the internet. In a fight between you wanting to keep your privacy and an OS designed and determined to exploit you for profit, you will always lose.

Apparently not, since you think that "plural pronouns" are a cultural element that can be appropriated, which isn't the case when aforementioned pronoun has centuries-old singular usage -- notwithstanding the significantly greater usage and acceptance in modern times -- with the extreme minority being the bigots who attempt to deny both grammatical and historical fact, and language evolution -- because of their own bigoted, hateful views.

Being an IP lawyer won't win you any points, especially when you're ignorantly refusing basic facts of language even with empirical evidence.

> Again, China can keep yelling that their way is the only way for China, but there does need to be a little more supporting basis than that.

Says who?

Running a society is hard. You can't simply compare the reality against a hypothetical guaranteed better outcome that would happen under democracy, even ignoring the claim (at best contentious) that India has done better than China for the last couple decades.

An equally a propos comparison would be the Soviet Union and its attempt at a transition to democracy. Life spans and material wellbeing collapsed, and even their political system ultimately backslid, to something as bad as the USSR. You can say that they just did democracy wrong--which they certainly did--but that doesn't solve the core issue that getting democracy right is a really hard problem. If the CCP had committed to democratic reforms under Deng, maybe it would have worked out better; but it also might have created turmoil and mass death, as attempts at democracy did in the USSR. And if the latter happened, rubbernecking Westerners would just say "well China did democracy wrong"; democracy never fails, it can only be failed. It's easy to call for from afar, but when your society's well-being is on the line, it's a much scarier risk to take for abstract benefits.
I feel like there is way more talk now in general about the current broken state of the Internet, corporatized and designed to inflict productivity-destroying scatter brain on all of us.

How about...Fortran!

In Fortran, you can only take the address of variables which have been annotated with TARGET. This means that "cannot alias" is the default and compilers exploit this.
Good luck using the C ABI on ChromeOS or Android.
No, because SMS is obsolete and nobody outside of the US(why?!??!) still uses it for anything else other than the occasional confirmation/MFA code.
> hate for capitalism is pretty old in certain parts of the world.

I would like to have a different take. India has a strong merchant class since aeons and market economy was never a taboo culturally. You can see that in the entrepreneurs like Bansals, Agrawals, Shahs that are at the helm of Indian Unicorns. So yes, there is a skepticism about 'western' capitalism, but not for market economics.
And formalizing it in this case would be user flairs. This way the flair can change, but the name stays. Though Twitter will only bother adding flairs if enough people complain that they can't tack on promotions to their names, and I'm not seeing that yet
That’s what governments and laws are for. Expecting companies to work for the greater good is naive at best; and we shouldn’t really get upset when they don’t. That’s not their motivation, as you’ve highlighted.

Lots of people like having just one messaging app, for messaging that's basically SMS-like.

Do you have any evidence that Musk gives a shit about what people say on this site? Because he responds to Kathy Griffin. He doesn't appear to be posting here.
I'm not sure if it's a legal requirement or they just don't want to upset law enforcement. I guess maybe they're just keeping the data for other reasons and then law enforcement is jumping on that. All I know is they're using our data warehouse and having me write queries that answer those subpoenas when they come in.

Well I know that in the UK it is a legal requirement, but not sure about the US.
You're on the wrong post then, because I've been responding to the article which is arguing that companies should switch to Mastodon over traditional social media. This isn't a thread about Mastodon in general.
I could write this against a few other replies but I will write it here. Moreover, I don't think I'm going to say anything that hasn't already been covered by other people, but I am going to attempt to distil down the arguments.

- The benefits of generators are, in a large part, the benefits of using iterators

- What are the benefits of using iterators? As you say, one benefit is that calling `next` on an iterator performs a single unit of work getting the next value. This let's you avoid e.g. allocating intermediate arrays, let's you do infinite streams, etc. Compare that to calling `map` on a list...you have to consume the entire list.

- A second benefit of iterators is that of scope. When I call `next` on an iterator I get the next value in the scope of the caller. This is particularly useful in a language with function colouring, because use of the `next` value can match what is required of the caller. E.g. the caller may want to await a function using some field of the `next` value and this is totally fine. Compare that to calling `map` with a lambda and wanting to `await` inside the lambda...the problem is you are now in the wrong scope and can't `await`.

- So where do generators come in? Well they are just syntactic sugar that will generate the state machine that you would otherwise have to implement by hand in your iterator. In that sense you don't need generators at all...

- BUT, with generators you can do things that would technically be possible with iterators but would be so clumsy to implement (I'm thinking here of coroutine libraries) that having them as a distinct feature makes sense.
I have successfully implemented pocket vetoing at the most immoral company I worked for, it was a brief stint (caused by the moral issues) where I could play around not delivering all the features management wanted to gouge their customers by playing with other priorities.

You don't need to do it, you don't even have to explicitly say no, you can just always find (or create) work that's more important to do than breaking your own morals. The worse that can happen is someone else gets the hot potato.
That's been the case for quite a while. Especially US Marxists:

Incentive alignment. Nothing short of hardcore government regulation of personal data, and the remuneration for (opt-in) usage of said data, will change anything.
That's a really interesting insight, thanks for sharing. Something new for me to be aware of in the future :)

>> there could be costs related to: environment, quality of life, traditions and values, mental health, etc.

quality of life, mental health: are you implying folks in poverty were perhaps happier before? If so, you're probably not familiar with life in poverty.

environment: while there are larger issues that could likely surface (more consumption of electricity, additional waste etc.), the environment in which they lived most likely improved (sanitation, medical help, gas instead of wood-burning stove, cow-dung as fuel, water-borne diseases); this comes from personal experience having lived close to one of the largest slums a long, long time ago.

Between Google Search decreasing in usability and accuracy for pretty much everyone I know in service of more Ads, Netflix Ad tier causing an exodus and now Apple poisoning what was their premium brand to squeeze ad revenue I can't help but think these businesses are starting to cannibalize their core value to their users in service to their shareholders. Companies with Ads are like Rats in that experiment with the button and a wire going to their pleasure center. Tap the button all day but they won't actually do anything useful and everything else wastes away.

For a while I've been thinking about the public markets and each time I arrive at the conclusion that the public markets can be really bad for consumers and bad for the businesses themselves. In the end the pursuit of higher stock value for share holders in the short term puts a company at odds with it's customers and it's own initial value proposition. Obviously an IPO is a desirable goal for founders, and maybe (very obviously?) more so their investors because it's a liquidity event and everyone get's paid, but I think for any one running a successful company thinking about what you shackle you and your company to by going public should be a long and hard think, because you're going to wind up making choices at the expense of literally every value and use your business purported to represent.

This is also why when choosing to make a startup, as defined by a high growth company designed to quickly arrive at a liquidity event (IPO and publicly traded obviously included) you should really understand if you want exactly that. I've watched at least one founder realize she didn't want that and that she did want to run a business for the customers and the value they were being provided and try to get off the train and it basically wrecked the business.

When I read stuff like this I'm always reminded of the line in Aesop Rock's song "None Shall Pass":

"Fine, sign of the swine in the swarm
when a king is a whore who comply and conform"

I guess this was a really long winded way of saying, know the game you're playing before you choose to play it and know who's actually calling the shots.
How can you hate all analogies with the physical would? How do you propose somebody learns something completely abstract without any physical counterpart whatsoever? How do intend to teach people something as simple as numbers without using your fingers or some other quantity of items in the world?

Vast quantities of language is built on analogy. Streaming, the internet, the World Wide Web, Starship. The word “cycle” comes from the Latin for “circle”. The list goes on.

I struggle to even comprehend how someone can hold this opinion. Have you ever tried instructing anyone in anything?

Yep, and if you check your local app store, it's full of thousands of also-ran messaging apps that are, indeed, dead. While Signal had SMS it had a feature that was NOT common on other apps, now it has the SAME feature set as, say, Whatsapp, and so instead of being a better Whatsapp (because it had features Whatsapp didn't) it's now a worse Whatsapp (same feature set, much smaller userbase), so it's doomed. Just like all the other also-ran apps.
1. CSS should've been split into app-y styles and doc-y styles a looong time ago; meaning that when you need JavaScript to make use of a feature anyway, there's no point in using CSS and it's better to set styles, layout using JavaScript rather than bloat CSS. The Houdini API was on the right track years ago.

2. The CSS WG at W3C must deliver formal specification rather than the prose they're writing up now. For an idea how a (partial) formal spec for CSS rendering looks like, see eg. [1], [2] (with limitations).

The one way complexity that both W3C and WHATWG have delivered over the past 15 years with complete lack of mental discipline due to financial dependency/job security will be a major source of confusion for generations to come, and will not be looked at favorably.
