Off topic: Why isn’t VS Code using WebAssembly?

Is it due to interoperability with the DOM?

Is that the stated goal of Zed.dev then, to create the next gen “vs code” by developing it in Rust (which can compile to WASM)?
How is it not social media? Looking at joinmastodon.org tells me it is. How are people still having to rediscover the fact that posting something publicly means you lose control of it? If you don't want your posts to be publicised, don't post them publicly.
Okay, but fooling a biometrics sensor is not exactly a Lock Screen bypass. Has iOS had a Lock Screen bypass?
Did I miss the part where the hospital was billed for the firefighters time? It's would be insanity to let them get away with this for free.
Of course we won’t see analogous bug fixes on the Apple side so we can’t compare too closely. Unless you worked on this codebase :-)
Yes they can unionize, and no it won't solve anything - most hospitals near me are unionized and they are still running critically short on nurses - you can't hire (or schedule) people that don't exist or don't work for you.

The real problem is there are not enough nurses, and a big reason for that is there are not enough nursing schools or slots in the existing nursing schools and it is extremely competitive to get into these schools - even with outstanding grades.

Just checked, the biggest hospital near me (in a medium-ish sized city) currently has 350+/- open nursing positions they are trying to hire for.
I wonder if this bugs exists on FireOS. It's obvious that bugs like this will happen in a spyware company product like Google.
Thank you for your response. Yes, I'm taking a jab at Photoshop's complexity, in the vein of 'what Intel gives, Microsoft takes away'. I carefully considered adding \s, but I'm genuinely curious to know if Photoshop feels faster or slower today (today's computers running today's Photoshop) versus 1999's computers running 1999's Photoshop. It seems about the same?
Exactly my point. USDT might fall into the same category
> You can redeem tether for a dollar anytime on their website [1].

You could also withdraw your money from Bernie Madoff up until the day the Ponzi scheme collapsed because the money ran out.

So the question is whether the money could run out, or whether they have 1:1 reserves.
Zelle limits vary per bank. I've recieved an over 2 thousand dollar payment through Zelle.
Catering to the whales, in casino speak.
They are doing it because nobody has any idea whether USDT is fine except for Tether. So every time it de-pegs, rational people have to run towards the exit and take a loss, since nobody knows whether this is a temporary “Tether makes some bank on fear” incident, or if it’s the big one.

Stablecoin issuers have basically two jobs. One is to maintain the peg. But the really important job is to convince people that even if the peg temporarily breaks: the money is still there and it won’t be the start of a collapse. Tether does neither of these things. And worse: they have a financial incentive to sweep their customers into periodic panics, so they can buy up Tethers at a discount. Nobody should be anywhere near this ecosystem, and in a world where competing options exist it’s amazing to me that people are.
All those examples you give are transformative in some way or other.

It's an interesting test of open source licensing because I'm not aware of any other area of copyright where works come with an explicit "if you use this somewhere else you must credit me as the initial author" in the implied/provided license.

Comparing music, literature, etc. to code is difficult because of both this difference and the existence of software patents. The manner in which infringement happens (and the scale) is often different as well.
Let’s take it to the extreme. Suppose this becomes the last bug Google exhibits in the next fifty years. Forty nine years in the future Apple makes a major security faux pas.

Do we need to remind everyone that Google made a bug fifty years ago, too?

I'm not really sure what you're talking about - the only generation that had LIDAR was Pixels 4/4XL and those shipped with face unlock.

There WAS a rumor about Pixel 6, but it doesn't have any special face unlocking camera. Pixel 7 does support face unlock without special hardware with caveat that it's less secure.
> Twitter fills a void where there is no real alternative. How can it be a bad idea? If you are morally opposed to it or something don't use it.

It's bad because of its 2nd order effects. On mental health. On conspiracy theory. On attacks on the integrity of the polity, on social cohesion. Freedom to communicate in the wide, semi-pseudonomously turns out to be something exploitable to undermine the fabric of society at times. I don't think we can put that genie back in the bottle, but "the revolution will not be televised" maybe turns out to be .. wrong?
No, cashflow positive assets generate returns. The idea that a cashflow positive asset could have no demand means that the dividend yield could be infinity. Which is a ridiculous idea.

On the other hand a cashflow negative asset like crypto can easily go to zero when the demand is at or below the cashflow cost.
> But if not you could make the component B injected in A dynamic (e.g. specified as a prop/children) and leave it out entirely in your test.

I've heard that advice before; this is why I made my example a bit more complicated, by saying that I want to swap out C (or D, or E, or whatever great-grand-child might be the troublesome one). The ultimate setup, hypothetically, could look something like this:

import TroublesomeChild from './TroublesomeChild';

const ComponentA = () => (
<div>
<ComponentB />
{props.children}
</div>
);

const ComponentB = () => (
<div>
<TroublesomeChild />
{props.children}
</div>
);

One could advocate for passing `TroublesomeChild` to component B as a dedicated prop to make component B more testable; but if we are testing component A, then we would also have to pass component B in a dedicated prop. And what do we do if there are multiple troublesome children? Creating dedicated properties for them is neither idiomatic from component authoring perspective, nor very scaleable.

How do you define too much of a focus in math? Presumably, winning sells more of whatever the sports owners are selling.

As long as the buyers are willing to pay more for winning than other aspects of the sport, then that is what the sports owners will optimize for.
A company like the BBC can post content to their own website completely under their own control. They can build their own platform that completely controls commenting. They can pay a large staff to build and maintain that platform exactly as they see fit. So why do they need Twitter?

Seriously, what is the value of Twitter for them? It isn't the same as for the masses who need somebody else to build and maintain all that infrastructure. For entities capable of running their own networks, Twitter and TikTok and all the other "social media" serve a different function. Indeed, when you are not only capable of running your own datacenters but actually do run them and operate your own media network, but still include Instagram as a core component of your business strategy, it is because it provides a value you aren't realizing from everything within your own datacenter.
Yeah, the system won't get fixed until it is broken. As far as hospital administration cares to understand, the hospital is still running, there's still money coming in the door. If nurses are really worried about losing their licenses from the corner cutting they need to do, then they absolutely should quit and let all the patient deaths that ensue be entirely the fault of admin.

I watch about 10-15 hours of TikTok a week and agree that the algorithm is incredible.

But personally, I haven’t found TikTok’s “not interested” button to be useful at all. It’s like it puts content/creators in some limited time out and then brings them back with a vengeance.

On TikTok I’ve found the best thing to do is block creators who I’m not interested in. It’s the only surefire way to keep them out of my feed and is very effective.

Again not really, somewhere, something send a signals, and outcome of that signal depends on UI state.

Anyway, could they trademark the Mastodon name and logo, so that a 3rd party partially incompatible client should be forced to identify itself as something else avoiding confusion? This would bring the next question: can Mastodon (the real one) nodes protect themselves against "compromised" ones?

Exactly. And I suggest this is a much better example of egregious security practices than that 5yo article.
Your point about bureaucratic service positions rings particularly true I think. It’s part of the job description and actually why I’ve decided the career path is not for me. The academics I’ve seen thrive all seem to enjoy that part of the job (my mentor, for example, goes out of his way to get involved in standards organizations and other international/academia-related groupings of bureaucratic process).

At my research university, even associate professors (not sure about the details of what’s tenure track) don’t have to teach that much. There are actually “teaching professors” here who’s sole responsibility is teaching without research pressure, and they still only teach two classes per semester (admittedly, those classes might have 300 students).
Tether collapsing would be the exact opposite of a black swan event.
On the contrary, Tether DID take investor money (in the form of USD), provided them with an IOU, and proceeded to buy hopefully-productive "real"-economy bonds with it.

Debt only creates value if it can be repaid. If Tether can not maintain the peg, it represents insolvency, and a net loss for the investors (rather than a win-win as a loan is supposed to be).

Seeing they also own non-USD-denominated bonds, it is not guaranteed that the principal returned will be the same dollar amount, even if held until maturity.

Go into account settings and set up mail forwarding from gmail to your new mail provider. Pick a mail provider that has decent control and ability to create custom rules/filters. Just be sure to log into gmail every couple months to ensure your mail forward is still in place and the account is actively used.

I did this with a few gmail accounts that I created for vendors that would not permit custom domains, one of a cell company and two for a couple social media sites that did not like custom domains.

To save the existing contents of your gmail account, go into account settings and enable IMAPS access. Use an IMAP client to pull down the emails. You can use IMAP to push them up to your new provider should you wish to keep emails on a server.
It has nothing to do with OOP. The design we're talking about is blind firing events at the in-focus window, and the in-focus window is being changed unexpectedly. The problem is loose coupling between the parent<->child. If the child window (PUK entry/pin reset window) knew the parent's ID and fired the dismiss event at that ID this wouldn't be possible.

Even the fix they implemented is poor: The child is STILL blind-firing a dismiss event, but they just told the lock screen to ignore dismiss events from the PUK entry window. Instead, the fix should have been to stop blind-firing events at whatever happens to be in-focus. They've added more complexity rather than fixing the poor design.
I’ll defer to you on this one. I’m not a tax accountant either :)

I don't think it is, since it doesn't answer the question. What the person who asks the question thinks and why a nurse who doesn't like their job doesn't quit are not obviously connected.

The train companies (in general) operate a franchise for a particular region of the railway (including mandatory service to less profitable areas in the network). CrossCountry is a quirk in that it operates the "Cross Country" franchise and it has no specific track to itself. Eurostar, Grand Central and Heathrow Express are Open Access operators in that they have no franchise of their own but pay to use the track for each journey. The whole thing is needlessly complicated to be honest, there's no real exclusivity - but there's massive capital costs involved in setting up a competitor and more risk involved for these Open Access operators.

Great Western Railway operates the Great Western franchise which incorporates much of south wales and south west of england - Including the Great western mainline. Abellio Greater Anglia operates most services on the Great Eastern Mainline

As for permissions I don't know if the crossrail core section has exclusivity granted to TFL (or its subcontractor MTR Corporation), given it's run as a concession this may be the case.

> Yes it is absolutely possible, for particular problems.

When I said infinite is impossible, I meant in absolute terms, not relative to somebody else.

n-x-engineer means that:
productivity_of_n-x_engineer / productivity_of_reference_engineer >= n
(assuming the reference isn't negative)

etc

So, I'm arguing that the numerator cannot be infinite, so if n is infinite, the denominator has to be 0. In that case _everyone_ with positive productivity would be infinite-x, making the term kind of trivial.

I'm not arguing that such a situation cannot occur for some role, it can certainly happen that a company fills 50% of more of engineering positions with completely unproductive people.

And if, as you seem to do, measure this per problem, not per employee, it is really common. There are a lot of technical problems that only a small percentage of engineers can solve. Even then, though, even less gifted engineers may find some other technical solution that addresses the same business problem well enough to provide more than zero productivity.

Sorry if this wasn't obvious....

The US is a little unique in the extent to which "firefighter/paramedic" is a common role, but it's very typical for firefighting personal to have at least some level of medical training, even if it's just the "first responder" level.

It's not clear to me from the story if the personnel sent over by the fire department were paramedics at all. The actions described would be well within the scope of a BLS first responder.

If I had to guess, the chief sent a BLS engine company, which would typically consist of 3-4 people, all trained to the EMT/FR level.

Thanks; the tools are more extensive than I had understood. Silence, as you note, is very useful. The tools that are provided should allow them to protect their employees' to about the extent that they are protected on Twitter, while allowing about the same degree of interaction that available on Twitter. It seems that the main issue that is missing is third party moderation, to allow third parties on other instances to opt into their moderation without actually having accounts on their instances. To the extent that users can be trusted to sign up on decent instances, it's probably no worse off than current. Whether the media companies see it that way, of course, is a different question.
This aesthetic will pass one day.

I think that the current minimal aesthetic really started in the early 00's with Apple's iPod. That design was striking at the time and was the antithesis to 90's grunge aesthetic. I was also a big fan of minimal techno back then and I almost felt like Apple was making nods to that lifestyle. We were certainly using their computers to produce it!

Now minimalism is old hat. I suspect that Gen Z will make some minor statements against it. But the big disruption won't come for another generation.

I recently read Generations by Neil Howe and William Strauss. In the book they make the case that their are 4 archetypes to a generation cycle - Idealist (boomer), Reactive (gen x), Civic (millennial) and Adaptive (gen z). Idealists and Civics are the dominant generations. While Reactive and Adaptive are the less so (one reacts against and the other codifies).

We will soon repeat the cycle sometime in the 2030's. The generation following gen z will be an idealist generation and will disrupt the current "blanding" trends we are living with. Think about the last time this happened. In the 1950s the silent generation (the last cycle's adaptive generation) was coming of age in an extremely conformist era created by the GI Generation (civics). Then the boomers came to age and the 1960s happened.
>can Mastodon (the real one) nodes protect themselves against "compromised" ones?

Yes, you can always defederate from other instances if you want. In fact, a lot of fediverse instances do just that to protect their hugboxes from the rest of us who actually value our ability to communicate with each other. And there are certainly a number of instances that defederate from others on technical grounds rather than social ones.
