Big problems with the design of the response here, too. Example: https://fivethirtyeight.datasettes.com/polls/president_prima...

The schema is ad-hoc and requires a human to interpret it. Link relations (at the bottom) are expressed the wrong way: a machine could understand the "next" or "license" relations, but not an arbitrary "next_url" or "license_url" JSON key.

Recommendation: adopt relevant IETF/IANA standards and reformulate the response to take advantage of them.
Even in one of the countries with the highest percentage of vegetarians (India; though you can argue that poverty has an impact, since we know that meat consumption goes up with revenue), vegetarians and vegans only make up about 30% of the population. In the rest of the world it's generally max 10%, if not 5% or lower.

So for any of these companies go make it big, they need to cater to the 90%+ of people who like meat.

One thing I wish I knew how to do -- presuming it's possible -- is constraining the reverse/forward history search. Say I know I'm looking for a grep command, I'll do `C-r grep`, but then I want to look through that subset of results for another string (e.g., the pattern, or maybe another part of a pipeline that I half-remember). AFAIK, reverse/forward history search is just an exact string match...and remembering exact strings is hard.

here, the police simply take your name/number and pick you up from the street. open and shut case in an hour.

Why should whatsapp/facebook/twitter help them? 1. they have business interests in india and they NEED to please the government if they want to survive in india so there are no court orders or anything needed. the police have carte blanche to demand any information and for them, name/number is good enough because the data is available with them.

an example from my own home. A family member was active on twitter last year and would get into "twitter debates" and that nonsense. they would use their own name because of the websites ask for "firstname/last name" and normally people don't care about that. anyway, during one such online fight, a random opponent apparently told them "you wont listen to me so i will have police explain it to you" or something to that end. 3 days later the police comes home "enquiring" about them. we had a hard time "explaining" the situation and some money exchanged hands after which we were off the hook. "never again they said, later"...

afterwards, i did a checkup of their account and they had 2FA activated on their number which i strongly suspect was passed on to the police. again, no "evidence" but my own anecdata.

>Feel free to explain your threat model.

i am "living" this threat model so the techniques used in iran for example used by dissidents or anti-government protestors or in china by anti-ccp protestors for example, i am going through that myself and PII in any form is dangerous.

sure, lets say i don't use my real name in twitter or use 2fa and twitter gives my "ip address" or something. they would have to corelate that information with a separate demand with ISP.... not low hanging fruit as much. mobile numbers, well they have dumps and mobile numbers dont change hands a lot.

OTOH, if i use my selfhosted matrix for example, the provider, some random DMCA ignore ones would laugh at them. even if they asked for payment, i pay from crypto so what will they get? and its not like the webmaster of my own server(read me) would not give any details to any demand from even PM of india so short of blocking my server IP,what can they do?

The writer of this email says they left France because of "too high work protection," and that they would rather "invest in more liberal & open-minded countries where we can easily dismiss bad
performers & trouble makers who kill their employers & the entire company."

Basically, they're aiming for the equivalent of at-will employment in the US, where you can be dismissed for more or less any reason, as long as it's not because of a protected characteristic -- but again, bosses like this will always find ways around that anyway.

This kind of toxic condescension by (some) bosses and ruling/employing classes, is exactly why workers need unions. Solidarity and collective bargaining go a long way to stopping small powerful people from overreaching and exploiting workers.

There's multiple of ways of doing this but let's assume some sort of routing model is used so you can have global rules based on the version provided that redirects/executes (depending on the layer where these rules are enforced) the proper code. From a code standpoint it can mean having a separate route group in your code for an API version, or it means that you have multiple routes for the "same" functionality per specified version, or it can mean something else entirely depending on how your code is structured. They most definitely aren't copy pasting parts of their project to support this.
I'm using bash (and thus GNU readline) all day every day at work, and by far the most useful shortcut for me is Ctrl-r (reverse history search).

I also sometimes use Ctrl-a (start of line, if the keyboard doesn't have a convenient Home key) and Ctrl-e (end of line, in lieu of End key).

Btw the post disses Ctrl-s / Ctrl-q for pausing/resuming terminal output, but it can be useful when you're outputting a lot of text (for example tailing a logfile).
that is one way of looking at it, and it's a perfectionist view.

CORBA was the right idea, but no one knows how to design protocols. No one understands idempotency or its intersection with partitioning.

Also, the uptake of a facility like CORBA is determined by the quality of the documentation that is made available with the initial release. The doco for ONC RPC, and later DCE RPC, focussed almost exclusively upon the issues associated with marshalling -- and Microsoft's documentation for OLE and COM perpetuated that slant --, while everything to do with failure modes was implementation-defined. The naive purport of COBRA, like every other such thing, is to deny the CAP theorem. This can only lead to disappointment.

>free speech rights of users who want a well-moderated community

I can't even wrap my head around this argument. Is the speech of the people who want a moderated community restricted? It may be other things, but it isn't a "free speech" infringement on these people. Free speech is about "speech" first.

As an employee there's things I can not say as a private individual, but I can certainly say those things in one guise or another.

Freedom of speech isn't freedom from consequence.

In the above example, the consequence is of joining a business that redacts my free speech.

Twitter has been okay for its users and advertisers, not 'very dissatisfactory'. The fact that it has not seen a flight of both in the past 5-10 years is evidence of that. There are arguments that it could have been better, of course, but the nature of a platform like Twitter is that running it is difficult and it's far easier to get things wrong than get things right.

Nor was there an urgent need for Twitter to have as dramatic a change as you say, as the company had healthy enough revenue and profit growth over the past five years and decent levels of cash on hand.

What we're seeing now is far more severe and consequential than the normal upheaval in a turnaround effort, and it's far beyond anything that the company was contemplating in terms of its own restructuring and refocusing efforts. I also question the claim that Musk is determined to make it 'much better' for users and advertisers, at least in a sense that most users and advertisers would agree with rather than Musk's own flawed views of what matters.
Your translation is unprecise:

>

translates to :

Remuneration shall be paid after the services have been rendered. If the remuneration is calculated according to time periods, it shall be paid after the expiry of the individual time periods.

"after the expiry" != "immediately after the expiry". It can be one second, or a year. 614 BGB clarifies that you are not entitled money BEFORE you have rendered your part of the contract.

Phew what a relief to see that there is considerable pushback from Wikipedians against the glaring, menacing and ominous banners that "attack" us casual users of Wikipedia at regular intervals. Surely there are better ways to motivate people to support Wikipedia.

"Specifically, participants clearly identified that banners that state or imply any of the following are not considered appropriate on the English Wikipedia:

- Wikipedia's existence is under threat or dependent on donations

- Donated funds are used primarily to support Wikipedia and/or its volunteer editors

- Readers should feel obliged to donate regardless of their means ("guilt tripping")"
This sounds like there might be a tangible risk for me because its written from a position of person with influence OR simply a rambling of an internet hobo if its written by a nobody therefore no risk.

> A corporation is made up of people. You cannot take away their free speech without infringing in the free speech of individuals.

That kind of reduction doesn't work, given that corporations necessarily (and sometimes optionally) impose various limits on the speech of their employees and contractors — NDAs and non-disparagement clauses from them directly; anti-cartel rules, customer data privacy including but not limited to GDPR, and national security letters from legal obligations.

I'm pretty sure some of my code review feedback would put me on the wrong side of Section 127 of the Communications Act 2003.

In all seriousness though, I can not control what some are grossly offended by. I consider someone's offence at anything I do or say to be their problem, one they can solve by not listening to me because we live in a fairly free society.

Of course at work, that's a different matter in a different environment subject to different rules.

> The real problem is determining whether content is "legal" without actually going through a legal process

That's not the real problem. We deal with this problem every time in our legal system and we've developed the so called "prima facie" evidence or rulings, that seek to minimize immediate harm.

If a policeman sees a guy wielding an axe chasing someone and shouting "Come here you mother fucker!", the policeman can't just go on his way saying <<Well, a crime was not yet committed and "Come Here" is not really a threat>>. There is prima facie evidence of an aggression and he has immediate authority to arrest the assailant for a limited time, and then justice can run its course.

What the law does here is to reassert the content moderators' authority to recognize and act on prima facie illegal speech. We can debate on far that authority should go and the specifics, but there is nothing wrong in principle with this approach to law making, and it's used in many other fields.

I think we really need to take a step back and appreciate that to some extent the UK governmental system is kind of working here. The UK government has an 80 seat majority, and it has advanced some really shonky legislation (this was an example, but the UK Bill of Rights was just as absurd), it's been quite impressive to see how successfully parliament has delayed, derailed and modified these attempts to blunder through legislation. The UK cabinet at this point has descended into a total farce, but the parts of our parliament outside of government - the committee stages, the Lords, amendments have all had great stabilizing effects and slowly forced the government into a fairly reasonable position.

>The opposition Labour Party said replacing the "prevention of harm" with an emphasis on free speech undermined the bill's purpose.

I mean... they're not wrong. The original intention behind this bill was insane, and it no longer does what it wnated. The fundamental problem that the government is facing is that there's behavior they want to discourage but can't functionally ban. Legally you have a choice, you either get ambiguous and open it up to abuse, or you go narrow and fail to really address the issue. I think this approach is fine, but we may have to revisit it.

> Normally vegetarian food costs less than meat

One of the reasons that the vegetian options are more expensive is because the margins are higher. People compare supermarkets based on meat prices, so they accept lower margins on meat to attract more customers.

Another thing is that people don't typically buy brand name meat, which allows supermarkets to more aggressively negotiate on price.

At least this is how it is in the Netherlands (according to a newspaper article I can't find right now).
