You can justify arbitrary security theater by only looking at the worst case scenario.

Do you justify constant GPSs surveilance because your work keys/cards might get stolen if you visit a bad neighbourhood? I hope not.

It's always a tradeoff of security vs. actually being able to do your job. Sure, a breach will cost a company but if you only have access to (mostly worthless) company "secrets" and no customer data then you really need to consider the likelyhood of having your data/credentials stolen, the cost that would have as well as the cost of the proposed security measures to your daily operation.
I hope these are out of the price range of people who like to shine lasers at planes:

Yep, combine this with the decreasing numbers of marriageable women (weight, age, kids etc.) , and you get a perfect storm.
So? If the military put Tabasco in their ration packs does that make Tabasco military rather than civilian? What about the chilli farmers?

And I wouldn't say they wouldn't get anywhere, yes they have military contracts, their bread and butter is more NASA though, and it's a stretch to not describe NASA as civilian so it's even more of a stretch to describe one of their private contractors as non civilian.

If you take the maximalist approach, nothing is civilian. Including this university supported rocket.

I don't agree with your characterisation of Bristol people - there's a lot of people and there's certainly some richer areas. It seems like you're setting up a strawman - that the 'modern lefties' only care about two distinct topics and then making value judgements based on that. There's also a hint of the True Scotsman fallacy, but you're not defining what you consider to be 'true' left-wing.

Not sure I agree with that. It's not difficult to notice one has "nai", other don't. Also when you read it in actual sentence you can immediately notice that something is wrong when you choose the wrong reading. Subsequent words don't add up. I am not saying confusion doesn't occur. I'm just saying it's not as big as people are painting it.
Nothing, Forever: 24/7 AI-generated faux-Seinfeld TV show
The problem is that this would have one specific ABI, which probably wouldn't match many existing structs with a flexible array member at the end. Could potentially be used for new code (while requiring every user to upgrade the standard they compile with), but has the risk of not usable for modernizing old code.

That makes no sense. Most large companies change both agreements and prices via notification emails all the time. Probably even SalesForce does so.

> it will undermine the claim on occupied territories and Jerusalem.

No one buys this claim who is important, not the U.S, not the E.U, not China and not even Russia. Israel knows this very well, so I doubt that's the reason. Even many Israelis probably don't buy into this claim, they want to hold on to the territories due to security reasons and what happened after the Gaza withdrawal.

> Also there is significant amount of Russian agents in Israeli political landscape

Significant amount? Do you have some data to support this? You're also suggesting they are all Putin supporters which sounds like a reach to me. Many of them came to Israel not loving the Russian totalitarian experience.
An attempt to measure say 5% difference in a tests would likely produce a flaky test which frequent failures would waste team's time. I'm not even starting that to measure this difference in a test one would have to maintain two implementations - slow and faster one and run in a test suite both to have two times to compare. Looks like unnecessary work to me. Enough to run benchmark manually when a decision is being made.

China imports more chips as a country than it imports oil. Chips are what the future struggle between USA and West vs China is going to be. Amazing book about this is Chip Wars by Chris Miller.

Chips rule the modern warfare. Why is Russia attacking so many civilian buildings? Part of it might be terrorism, but I think bigger story is that they got starved of chips and precision rockets. Javelins that helped Ukrainians stop the war at the beginning, each have 200 modern chips inside.

The struggle of having modern chips is only going to increase, with more and more weapons becoming full of AI systems. Will China be able to survive chip choke? It's high on their list to improve their capabilities in production, and I believe one of the major goals before they can afford to invade Taiwan

It's a pretty big market. Apps like whisper are terrible and unmaintained but have 10M+ downloads. I would wager that it's apps like these that the average person uses, not the polished ones you see on Product Hunt.

From within the app, looks like most users are South American. Large population, and there's a shortage of apps targeting the region.

This is just my perception, being someone builds for the Indonesian market, and having an app that hit similar numbers without any marketing effort.
I will def check it out. Thanks again!

My income is mostly passive, about 2-3 hours per week is actual work but not time critical, I can also do 4 hours the next week.

I only work when my brain feels ready for it. And honestly sometimes that is not very often. However i still regularly get done more in 2 days as in an 40 hour job.

If I have an idea I want to focus on I do that. I may code away for 2 weeks without many breaks until I trash the project or stash it away. Sometimes productive, sometimes just wasting time and learning things.

I could not imagine a better working model (for myself). And I really hope more people get the enjoy the freedom of more time in future, there won't be enough jobs anyway once we are done automating everything.

Modern Flash Endurance with Solidigm
Empty dark page (technically it’s a speeddial with no items because about:blank is too bright). I transitioned from using speeddial to bookmarks bar with links and folders instead, middle-clicking them to open in a new tab.

Ctrl-t only for web and history searches.

Why: new tab is a “click into unknown” ui pattern. With bookmarks bar I see the target right away (unless it’s in a folder ofc). It’s not even that faster, but feels more predictable.

What about if the government made it illegal for food producers to use the worst offenders e:g adding high fructose corn syrup to food, giving cows growth hormones, spraying glyphosphate? So the consumer's freedom would be un-curtailed, but businesses have to abide by certain ethics. Does that make things work for you, or still no good? :). (I mean , maybe you should still be allowed to buy a bottle of corn syrup and add it yourself if you really really want to.. although perhaps parents shouldn't be allowed to feed their kids that).

Well, I guess it’s good to know that I need not bother renewing a netflix subscription for our vacation next month. Might as well not bother at all.

Glad to see they are going the time honored route of making things worse for legitimate users while not bothering pirates.

I can get my run of the mill KDE desktop to hang at startup by dragging a networked folder with a custom icon to the taskbar, then attempt to log in over a flaky network connection. Or if I attempt to drag too many application icons to it in the Wayland session. Don't get me wrong, I like it, I mean, I use it, but Plasma 5 is still, at best, late beta. My only hope is that, unlike its predecessor, it doesn't get abandoned and rewritten when it gets a semblance of stability.

It's kind of interesting, house prices have exponentially gone up while wages remain stagnant and there's more commodities to spend your money on. I don't necessarily think our parents' generation would've been off much better if we adjusted them for our current conditions now honestly. They had less credit compared to our buying power parity, so I think ultimately down the line we probably represent the same economic spending potential despite having access to a lot more things.

More importantly though, I don't think they were necessarily much happier than us either. "Settling down" essentially meant giving up your life. Nowadays you can go to a geeky renaissance fair and find it packed with all sorts of people with kids of all ages. Same thing with like, anime conventions and whatnot.
No, the software becomes "Open Source" or "Free Software" the moment someone licenses it to somebody else under such a license. Simply copying a file named LICENSE into some private directory has no legal relevance. As an employee, you usually don't get a license to the work artifacts you are working on.
I, as a non-native English speaker, also immediately feel that "green great dragons can't exist". But how to explain that..
there really aren't that many players worldwide. The US and allies control chip making and can choke anyone at least for now. It would be economically unsustainable for most of the countries, the only one that can even dream of producing their own chips is China, but still it will take decades to catch up with modern Western chips.

NATOs GDP is 45% of world GDP. Add to that Japan (3.4%) Australia (0.9%) and South Korea (1.9%) and you have half of world GDP. How can you compete with this block technologically?
NGAD + MUM-T likely in next 10 years, but not for export. US allies also now doing their own 6th gen program, i.e. JP-UK-IT-SE (Global Combat Air Programme), FR-DE-ES (Future Combat Air System) and 4.5 gen SKR (Bormae), but that's still 10-20 years away. So in meantime 35 only obvious choice for anything over 4.5 gen.

I do agree that AI fighters the future. Simply because once you engineer without human limits, flight envelopes / performance will shift in attacker favour. Anti-air missiles work by arbituaging gap unmanned and manned limits. I can see performant UAVs being magnitude more capable in dodging anti air to the point where it becomes not feasible in terms of cost and magazine depth to try to even shoot them down, especially from naval platforms, i.e. 500 VLS cells in carrier group with 30% dedicated to AA might successfully interdict 50 manned fighters and need 200 to overwhelm, but with manned fighters that might only be effective against 5 unmanned, or 20 unmanned to overwhelm. Realistically less because ships become significantly less useful if they have disproportionately focus on anti air. Basically skip job of stealth of being difficult to detect to being nearly impossible to hit in the first place. Hence airforce betting/pouring 1000 F35s worth of $$$ on B21s that's difficult to detect and fly in altitudes that's difficult to hit, straight from CONUS.
I wonder what happened to that child
Thank you. I'm always pleased when I get a reply from WalterBright[1].

Some follow up questions:

1. If you could redesign the above mechanism, would you do anything differently?

2. In my Own Toy Language[2], I've toyed with the idea making all native arrays fat objects as it seems the best way to ensure that the compiler, at any point, as the ability to bounds check if necessary. All that goes out the window when you want to do FFI to some C function. Any thoughts on mitigating this?

[2] Everyone designs their own perfect language; I'm no different.
> does modern C++ have a better solution to implement the same thing?

No, the only standard way is to allocate a buffer large enough, and placement new the header and the bulk payload separately. The manual handling of alignment makes this very cumbersome.

Flexible array members would be nice, but I don't like that it is yet an other overload on some array declaration syntax (other meanings of "T x[]": 1) declare an array of unknown size, 2) in a definition, deduce the size). For some reason C likes to overload the array declaration syntax with widely different meanings (looking at you, VLAs).
dbt does have testing built in, but of course there are only certain cases for which that kind of testing works. dbt can't know if your metrics 'look' right, only you will know.

As others have mentioned, you want to compare the results of your queries against a previously known 'good' state of the data. So, as you're making data model changes, you can regularly check your development environment against production to see how your changes affect the data.

Data profiling is the perfect tool for this, especially when your pipeline reaches a certain size, or you're dealing with very large datasets.

I work on the team creating PipeRider.io, which uses data profiling comparisons as a method of "code review for data".

It becomes particularly useful when you automate generating data profiles of development and production environments in CI, and attach the data profile comparison to the pull request comment. It makes seeing the impact of changes so much easier.

Here's an article that discusses the benefits of this:

The Ruby community has a very good culture of testing application and framework code, but in my experience is quite poor at properly specifying behaviour or writing truly robust code.

Many functions in the standard library behave subtly differently from there documentation or have behaviour that is not documented but depended on by applications, and I’ve certainly seen lots of concurrency bugs in both code and tests because the GVL makes it hard to provoke the worst case behaviour.

The unit tests are really useful for Ruby language implementations because they help give us confidence we’re replicating all the required behaviour, but from that point of view I wish the underlying things were better specified so those tests weren’t quite so necessary.

Don’t get me wrong. I love Ruby as a language and loved working on TruffleRuby, but I don’t think the community should be too smug about code quality and testing.
Slave labor under the Romans at Rio Tinto from 206 BCE onwards for two hundred years, or the 1888 Zalamea massacre, or the still linguring toxic legacy of the Panguna mine in PNG?

It's such a persistent ongoing problem with mining that I'm personally more inclined to blame the collective detached nature of consumers that demand products and yet turn a blind eye to the sourcing of that which they demand.
You have a point but orphan sources are pretty legitimately scary, and have historically caused many horrible deaths and even more (survivable) suffering, often with the victims having no idea what is happening to them.

Radiological dangers are uniquely hazardous - bacteria and viruses dry out and die, poisons and acids can be neutralized. Almost every other hazard on Earth can be eradicated with nothing more than a good hot fire. But unstable isotopes answer to no one but time.

Seems high time for some civil disobedience. Break the law collectively, let them seek to enforce their ridiculous/draconian laws and explain the knock on effects in court.

Alternatively, open source projects that may be effected can withdraw access to their sites and source code and cite the law. Hopefully they forked the code already and don’t need any future updates.
Syncthing would be worth checking out. It seems like a good match for what you're mentioning, it automatically handles the networking and file change watching. I've used it in the past to back up photos from phones, and have a few notes on usage.

For syncing two devices with intermittent connectivity (phone and laptop) you really want a third device (raspberry pi in my case) that's always online to act as a buffer and keep each end up to date. I also had some issues with device discovery taking a while though I'm fairly sure it was phone power saving settings that was messing it up. It's stable and popular software, definitely battle tested on Linux, though there are apps for all platforms.

It is almost impossible to obey this law. It shows how uninformed the EU lawmakers are when it comes to technology.
I'm so tired of it all. Countless times it has been tried to enact laws like this. And it's not just this surveillance law that depresses me, reading up on the cyber resilience act just feels to me like it will suck even more fun out of software development, at least in a professional context.
It seems that application stores would only be a tiny fragment of what would be affected by the law. Basically everything involving facilitating communications between users would be subject to draconian surveillance and reporting requirements. This is not the way a free or open society progresses.
As usual, people who aren't familiar with the culture of software write laws that restrict software. I sincerely hope this will just be a scare like Article 10 was, but it'd be much better that whoever these insane proposals are coming from could be stopped.
Styling Components in SwiftUI
My comment did sound too harsh, probably.

What I meant was wearing a t-shirt and shorts in a room at 19c and feeling awesome versus being all dressed up in a merino tight fitting sweater and tight fitting leggings in a cooler room. I see no health benefits there, really, no matter how breathable and natural merino is.

And you would need to wash that wool daily (or rather often) if you were wearing it daily. And by now you probably know that merino is a sensitive fabric, and the more you wash it — the faster it degrades (compared to cotton).

That all adds up. And I don't see it as being practical and making too much sense, that's it.

I'm curious to know how likely this is to pass. EU laws are proposed by the council, but passed by the (much more representative and democratic) parliament.

The EU has fairly good form in terms of passing common-sense tech laws (see; GDPR) so I'd be skeptical that this is any more than a dumb proposal destined for failure.
Building a fab is very expensive. It's unlikely for some small new entrant to be successful, unless they happen to invent something better than EUV lithography or can somehow build all their machines from scratch.

Basically at this point, the big players are TSMC, Intel, and maybe Samsung. No one else can afford what it costs to be constantly upgrading their factories and doing the necessary basic research to get high quality and consistent yields.
