> Sp banning right wing users for having right wing opinions are OK…

Maybe! Being part of a group that also holds certain opinions isn't really relevant to whether expressing those opinions violates a policy. But which opinions did you have in mind?

Here have an extremely relevant tweet.

To be clear, removing the bounds checks led to the observed performance degradation. Your statement beginning with "I am a Rust fan, but..." suggests that you might have interpreted it as the other way around
You could try a Raspberry Pi and some motor controller hats from Pololu. You could then use any language that has a GPIO library.
I agree the block-chain structure and cryptography are cool, but why do 1000 people need to be deeply incentivized instead of 1?
Did I read the article properly ?

Do Americans give Adderall to children ?

I already knew that little boys had they penis mutilated at birth, in the USA.
But I didn't know about the Mr Robot parenting.

Is it possible to just accept children the way they are, and to talk to them to raise them into being good citizens ?

For FHA it appears all costs resulting from foreclosure are reimbursed except perhaps these, by forclosure expenses I think they mean legal fees, not the mortgage itself:

"The FHA reimburses only about two thirds of foreclosure expenses, interest is not reimbursed for the first two missed payments, and interest is reimbursed at the HUD debenture rate for subsequent missed payments."

The stuff he works on and OP above is beyond my current level/field. I wouldn't really watch it to follow along rather just for the company/background noise. Maybe learning something in the process. Currently I don't watch anyone regularly for code.

I get it though, I used to watch Social Network or Silicon Valley to hype myself up to pursue something. Now my problem is too many projects ha.
What you're trying to imply here is that linux effectively needs to be reboot on every update, and you're wrong.

It's possible your cloud provider has chosen to have its own package repository where they insist on doing this, but this is a decision by your cloud provider and not Canonical.

Linux has what's called Kernel Modules that can be unloaded and loaded at runtime without the need to update the kernel itself. I myself run ubuntu in vmware, and have done so for probably over 10 years, and your description of Ubuntu's default behavior is inaccurate.

But more than that, it's been explained to you, stop arguing.
For what it's worth, I work in a large 30,000 employee company. Everyone gets a Windows machine by default.

6 years ago our department of 200 people "went rogue" and started provisioning Macs, because it was the only way we could hire developers and provide a good developer experience for the work we were doing.

This took some convincing, but it was possible. We agreed to be unsupported by the in-house help desk, but we had 2 people in IT that supported us for provisioning and fixing machines, and sorting out a small amount of required enterprise software like a Cisco VPN client and some fleet management background agents.

Otherwise, we self-organized support over Slack and in-office and also made use of Apple's business support directly.

As of earlier this year, our department is now over 600 people, and we've given our internal IT enough incentive to officially support Macs, which they now do, alongside Windows.

They use some kind of MDM software to manage and update and monitor our Macs the same as they do Windows.

There are also now additional much larger teams in the organization exploring Mac adoption where it makes sense for their developers too, and we could soon have thousands of Macs in use.

So it's definitely possible, even if you have to start small.
I've brought this up a few times and the response is usually against me. I feel the same way, although I understand that people need to work and people need to get paid. I've worked jobs that probably had little if any positive net impact on society. I'd contend that net-positive industries are actually a small minority. Just because something provides a consumed/demanded product doesn't mean that it is a net positive, and I think people generally aren't as good at diffentiating between the two.
I'm OK with sleazy companies pricing themselves out of the market if that's what it takes to prevent rent-seeking "ecosystems" imposing vendor-lock-in by making their "too cheap to be true" loss-leader products require esoteric consumables.
> Wow, I guess I would've figured that it would take people with this kind of background a while to find another gig (working on similar things) in the current environment. So maybe things aren't as bad as they seem? (yet, anyway)

Finding another position doesn't mean finding another equivalent position.

I work for a FAANG right now. If I was getting laid off I would get the first job I could and then keep applying to other companies that are more suitable to the level that I had before.

If your work is rote crud apps the sure, I can see that.
But if your work has been the development, deployment and advocacy of your own ideas and research... thats very different to me, because the level of personal ownership is greater.
> It's an HTTP client.

Yeah that's what I mean, on the face of it there's not all that much platform specific code should be required for that.

Sure handling all the edge cases of HTTP and whatnot isn't trivial, but almost all of that should be platform neutral so not relevant for this discussion.

Now granted I know HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 are different beasts. But that's why I said it would have been nice with some concrete examples. It's always interesting to learn about issues and pitfalls you've never considered, or similar.

What a ridiculous thing to say. Actually plenty of us (and I've also been on the internet for many decades now) would like to hop online to engage with some cool folks about [insert interesting topic here] without having utter garbage and dreck thrown up in our faces like racism, transphobia, misogyny, bigotry, etc., etc.

> Antifa accounts. … All of whom have now been suspended despite there being no infringement on terms of service.

Are we talking about the same Antifa? Political terrorists, violently attacking civilians for having opposing beliefs?

If inciting real-world political violence and terror is not against the TOS, why were supposedly all those right wingers banned?

I won't pretend to understand the limits of Safari on iOS, but having the storage amount be based on the capabilities of one's device and not on the amount of actual storage available on it is a poor user experience, especially so if 512MB-2GB is the actual limit. In that sense, I would consider the ability to download as many songs for offline use as my phone's actual storage allows to be the feature, not necessarily simply being able to download a song for offline use.
Just because you can find some individual stocks that are down 80% (and keeping in mind that 80% != thousands lol), doesn’t mean that the most volatile decile of the stock market hasn’t outperformed crypto.

The iShares Small Cap Growth ETF (which is a probably a decent proxy for the most volatile companies in the market) is only down 13% on the year.
>Because if there's only one party, then who is watching them and ensuring they follow the rules?

Who is watching the 100's and making sure they're following the rules (and before you say that there are people monitoring the 100's of miners, then there could be people monitoring the 1 in the same way). Maybe I'll put it this way - decentralization is one way to accomplish what you want, but it's the least efficient way to do that possible. Instead we should focus on ways to make existing centralized systems more transparent, but it's hard to create ponzi schemes off that, so it gets less attention.

Thais is actually a core concept of cryptography! The entire RSA algo. is based on the idea that it's way easier to check prime factors that it is to solve for them! So why did we decide to make it so that everyone has to solve for prime factors?
Eric, want to echo what folks are saying here. I stumbled on your blog in high school (ca 2003?) and you (and Raymond Chen) fueled so much of my passion for compilers and API design respectively, which dictated both my school choice and at least some career choices later. You were highly influential from afar :)

It can also backfire, depending on the kid's psyche. A troubled child could imaginably interpret that as carte blanche and overreact to a perceived threat or retaliate and get into serious trouble.
>and responded to your claim

No you did not, you responded with an unrelated fact that "right news" (which is widely over categorized in these research papers BTW) is the most shared link

This does not refute the position that twitter employee based censorship was largely in one direction, this does not refute the fact that twitter policies were written and enforced in one ideological direction, this does not even really indicate why those links where shared or the reaction to the link, where they shared for outrage or criticism, for support or derision?

No your link proves and supports nothing
I wonder if this is why there's been a spate of open source announcements from Meta. Might just me being sensitive to it, but I can imagine worried team members wanting to give the world some of their work, and/or want to pick up where they left off in another company.
Everything, all at once.

SMEs can't reliably manage that transition with any skillset and still deliver a product at the same time.
One of the best industries in the world. I deeply root for them and hope that they can defeat plastic in all of its evil forms. I already see cardboard water bottles in stores, hopefully beer etc is next. Paper is truly incredible stuff.
Didn't I read recently that Meta, Google, and all those companies are laying off people? Not going to talk about Twitter because that's a special case ;).
This is a false premise. Without understanding why each account was banned and what infraction was cited we can't make a clear comparison or judgment about either case. Otherwise it's just more outrage-porn.
>we don't have automatic aiming for real guns

Yes we do. We've had various implementations of it for as long as computer vision has been readily available, as demonstrated by this decade-old video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0WR9g9o1r2M).

There's no difference as far as the turret goes as to what type of gun it uses.

If I had the time and resources, I would build a Twitter clone and focus on just getting journalists, editors, reporters, etc on the platform. This is a powerful community that is quite established on Twitter, but I suspect they would be willing to migrate. Maybe something like, Manuscript Wishlist or QueryTracker, but specifically with a Twitter vibe.

The savings are already banked (in the code/infrastructure) so you save the headcount cost as well.
You are missing the fact that no-one was getting banned merely for having an option or for their actions outside of the Twitter platform. They were banned for continuously violating the terms of service e.g. inciting violence, racist or xenophobic content, doxxing etc.

And what happened here is that those left-wing accounts were banned without any such violation i.e. it was purely arbitrary and the very thing you claim you don't want.
Its not like that is a far walk though. Its the exact same technique, just storing different data.

Respectfully i feel like this would be like seeing an example of css turning a page blue and claiming the technique is useless for turning the page red because that is not the specific example used.
I haven't watched this particular video yet, but a similar explainer video that I came across this week has me feeling a lot like "Those who have forgotten Second Life seemed doomed to repeat it (badly)". I had a bit of a rough moment realizing that statistically most of the engineers at Meta are probably too young to remember Second Life. (And some of the ones that are old enough like Mark Zuckerberg were too busy in other parts of the internet to have learned the realest lessons, which were not technical but sociopolitical.)
>Can someone smarter than me enlighten me when you would consider disabling bounds checking for performance?

Because it is faster. Worst case you are triggering a branch miss, which is quite expensive.

>It's like talking about how much faster a car would go if it didn't have to carry the extra weight of brakes.

So? Every wasted CPU cycle costs money and energy. Especially for very high performance applications these costs can be very high. Not every car needs brakes, if it doesn't need to stop by itself and crashing hurts nobody they are just waste.
> Sealioning refers to the disingenuous action by a commenter of making an ostensible effort to engage in sincere and serious civil debate, usually by asking persistent questions of the other commenter.

Never heard sealioning before, "thanks, I hate it" I guess. Reminds me of "dog-whistling", and in a way is an exact example of what PM_me_your_math is getting at.

You can decide someone is being disingenuous, but if you can't demonstrate that somehow, I'm inclined to disbelieve you. The GP said "those claims are demonstrably false", and then a follow up comment said "okay, please demonstrate", and you can claim that's being disingenuous? Don't you see how that creates an iron-clad thought bubble?
you can hit three nines even if you're down for 1.5 minutes every day, or ten minutes a week. It's really not as hard to hit as it sounds. For a compute heavy process that isn't end user facing (e.g. batch processing) it's perfectly viable.

Also, most cloud providers don't guarantee five nines anyway. GCE SLA is 99.5 on a single instance, 99.99 on a region

Sure, negative societal costs are true of embezzlement, stock fraud, and wage theft as well. I wouldn't describe those crimes as violent either, unless by chance a separate act of violence was perpetrated in their commission. And, even though they are generally on an orders-of-magnitude higher cost scale than garden variety shoplifting, we don't normally describe embezzlers and other white collar criminals using dog whistle words like "thugs" either.
There is no way in hell that I am giving up on having instant access to 99.9% of all music, but I will say that Apple Music is infuriating in many ways. The desktop application is widely known to be crap, and, to the point of the article, my biggest frustration with the phone app is that 3 out of 5 icons along the bottom are dedicated to discovery. I don't want Apple to help me find music (that they likely get kick backs to promote).
Yep, unless your code is wrong, the bounds check will always be predictable. Which makes it free in a sense. But sometimes it will block other optimizations, and it takes up space in the caches.
Lots of people on this thread advocate for fighting back. I don't know why you have a problem with it.

"Bullying" on the original article had nothing to do with firearms & school shootings, as you would know if you read it. It has to do with one nasty kid picking on another one. It very rarely makes the news.

If you need to have the last word, go ahead. I'm not replying any further.

> Plagiarism is the *fraudulent representation* of another person's language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions *as one's own original work*.

Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plagiarism

The same way that you disagree when someone stretches the meaning of the work "talk" to encompass what GPT-3 does, I also disagree when you try to stretch the meaning of the word "plagiarism" to encompass what GPT-3 does (and I've explained exactly why: GPT-3 generates sequences of tokens, but makes no specific claim about the originality of the generated sequences of tokens).

We can agree to disagree, if you can't accept that "plagiarism" literally involves more than just "copyright infringement" or "replicating someone else's work from statistical correlations" or anything along those lines: it must also involve fraud or some other form of misrepresentation.

Either way, have a nice day.

> long before Breaking Bad and Meth

Your world seems a bit one-dimensional. Running helped one kid. So, we tell every kid to run? What do we do for kids that don't want to run? Force them? What happens when you run out of things to try?

You're perpetuating a world in which humans can't get the right help for their issues because "they should just try X!" It's incredibly tone-deaf.

By the way, Methamphetamine existed long before BB. It was used by Nazis to keep them in fighting shape.
For AWS managed resources definitely use Graviton. But for spot instances in EC2 we've found better pricing and greater availability by staying on x86. (We run 100% of our web services and background workers on spot instances).

I think so. Despite being an Elm fan I never used Redux. My side projects or work projects are small so local state and context were more than enough.

Although Redux is like Elm, the language (Typescript or ES) make immutability hard so it doesn’t feel as natural a paradigm.

Also pragmatically calling setState from an event is just easier for small projects.
I think the distinction is it’s a very different to schmooze as a way of getting things done in service of a larger mission vs sucking up in a non-productive way of meeting purely selfish ends.

Unfortunately, with ink-jet an out-of-ink can actually do damage, not merely produce a bad print. They have no incentive to make a reliable ink measuring system, though.
It also removes all other nonviolent options. You’re left with a gun toting tv car and a loudspeaker. Cops other don’t apply force due to threat but due to disobedience of their target.
> Then said Jesus unto him, "Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword".

I'm a big fan of Eric Lippert's work, but this blog post comes across as whiny and evinces a completely unwarranted sense of entitlement. This is a person who voluntarily chose to get paid (I can only assume) a very large amount of money to work on something that he found to be exciting and fulfilling. The only catch: it all belonged to Mark Zuckerberg.

Why does Mark Zuckerberg owe him an explanation for why his services are no longer needed? Why does he think that the decision process should be visible and rational (cost vs benefit) to him? It suggests that he has a fundamental misunderstanding of the world. Instead of being "vexed" that he was fired instead of the people building toys for Mark Zuckerberg, perhaps he should be thankful for the two years he spent working on the PPL team.
One thing that I don't see talked about a lot is that this approach of experimentation which is effectively Musk conducting twitter polls, de-facto excludes the majority of users on the site.

Surprisingly enough there's almost as many Japanese users as Americans on Twitter, not to mention everyone else, do they also get an input on the style of the public conversation?

Apparently he's having trouble with the EU now as well because he's shuttered the office in Brussels. Is this a global public conversation, a local one, is everyone going to live by one standard, pretty hard to figure that all out if you've reduced the workforce to keeping the servers running.
Mostly for the developments on multipath QUIC.
Lol, red bull...

Elon's late night tweets always make me think of that scene in The Office where the new CEO (James Spader) decides to close one of the branches without telling anyone and when asked about it he goes "I got into a case of Australian Reds... and... How should I say this, Colombian whites"
