I don't think it was a joke, and the problem is real. Last year I had to spend significant amount of time updating a basic frontend that was "only" three years old. "npm install" told me I had over a hundred security problems (most weren't really applicable or a big deal, but still), but updating things was hard as almost everything had incompatible changes; some had several major version bumps. Since I didn't write the original application and wasn't familiar with all the libraries used it felt like joining Game of Thrones in the middle of season 4 and figuring out what was going on. All in all, I spent about a week of full-time work.

The backend was written in Go; everything could be updated to the latest version without any incompatibilities at all.

People having been complaining about incompatibilities in Rust too, but Rust is a much newer language, and I think things have settled by now as well. I don't know much about C#.
I think someone tried that; the issue lies with reviewers that really "spill the tea" (fellow kids, am I using that right?); specifically that Glassdoor can be legally compelled to unmask the reviewer.
No, im referring to your original comment calling me a "typical noob". It was an immature comment which contributes nothing, and again I think youre capable of more maturity than that.

Obviously, this conversation is based on your misunderstanding of the original post and so I dont think its a worthwhile use of either of our time to enumerate the chapters and system calls from a college class. Knowing how processes are created in a generic operating system is not the same thing as knowing how shebangs work on unix-like systems. Again, OS class is about how to MAKE an operating system, not how to use one

VLAs do not have extra bounds checking.

Looking at it from an attacker’s point of view, a VLA is a primitive for adding an arbitrary offset to the stack pointer: extremely powerful and dangerous.

You can’t use VLAs for large allocations because the stack has a limited amount of space and you don’t know what that limit is. So you must check the size is reasonable before declaring a VLA. So you might as well declare a fixed-size array that is large enough for all reasonable uses.

> It's not even that hard. Make taxation more progressive, and give extra funding to neighbourhoods and schools in poorer parts of the country/cities.

The US already does this. Taxation is more progressive than Europe and large amounts of money are redistributed to poor and troubled schools, in some cases as much as twice the European average. It is not correlated with any of the outcomes you are imagining.

Throwing money at the problem doesn’t work. The US has been doing that for decades with nothing to show for it.

I'm in no way knowledgeable regarding this but does gender politics not further gender distinctios? Particular trasgender politics seem go reinforce gender roles rather than diluting them.

It would seem wiser to modify your body and personality however you wish and adhere to sex, without worry of defining a gender.
I suppose situations where the sexes are separated is where gender politics start.
If you’re making profit from the fact that someone has not enough money or a good enough credit score to buy their own place, whilst you may be the nicest landlord in the world you’re still technically exploiting the situation for your own gain.

In the meantime, I think my exploration is more about our inability to organize meaningful events without corporate power. And when I drove to the supermarket and back, I remembered a former co-worker who would look into the national holidays. In fact there are many, many of them.

Might be (Arduino maybe?). AFAIK there's still quite a bit of C code written in the homecomputer retro scene, using specialized C compilers like sdcc or cc65, but IME this requires so much manual tweaking and platform specific hints that it is very far away from 'standard C', and most common open source libraries wouldn't even work even if the code was fully standard compliant C, just because of memory constraints.
Bugs don’t matter until they do. I once worked at a SaaS firm with atrocious reliability- eventually the NPS surveys said that was the top issue. Surprisingly it receded to issue #N when reliability went to “we don’t have a weekly outage”. This was a multibillion dollar SaaS.

My two cents is that paper cuts hamper productivity more than anything else. Even if customers don’t care about monthly downtime/small gotchas. The dev team will have to spend time thinking about it and dealing with it. A company with a 2 hour build, and multi day test cycle will naturally have dev productivity near zero.
How about we stop telling people how simple, fast, efficient or whatever our software is. Let users decide for themselves. Tell them what it does and how to use it.
Another way of looking at it is whether you should punish the landlord for attempting to steal your money, with the extra $1000 being an incentive/payment for your time. I don't think there's a moral obligation to do so, but it definitely improves the world if landlords are afraid to try this tactic on others.
> On top of that, the NBA is always going to have a problem with height diversity

When I was a kid, I recall people loving Muggsy Bogues because he was a short guy thriving in a tall man's game. It was really dramatic to watch him start when everybody else on the court was 2+ feet taller.

Professional sports are a performance, and it's ludicrous to say managers and league execs shouldn't take things like viewership and ticket sales into account when planning a season or expanding a team's roster. The "home team" dynamic deliberately encourages spectators to identify with players with whom they share an affinity (even if it's just that they live in the same city), so it's unsurprising that the dynamic extends to nationality, gender, religion, race, etc, too.

For this particular example, if anything I think drinking frequently with friends and family was much more frequent in times prior to television. But agree that television has this effect in general, shaping perception around social norms. I suspect it is used this way intentionally in some cases.
In the EU we already have a law for protecting whistleblowers:

https://commission.europa.eu/aid-development-cooperation-fun...

Also companies have emerged for providing secure platforms for whistleblowers.

Though, as national security and related things are in the hands of the member states, I am not sure how well this EU law and its national adaptations apply to the cases discussed in this article (probably wholesale exemptions have been adopted by the member states at this front).

EDIT #1: At some point they also tried to draft a law for protecting people involved in vulnerability disclosure, which would have been great, but I think this lawmaking proposal failed.

EDIT #2: I should have read the article better; it seems similar laws exist also in the US.

I can't wait for the EU to force messaging services to work-together. I absolutely hate the green text bubble and how it ruins group messages, but its entirely because Apple (and all the other messaging services) are anti-consumer. I guess one way to solve it is for everyone to get an iPhone, another way is to move the group chats into facebook messages (which a lot of my friends groups have done), but now I have two messaging programs. My inlaws use WhatsApp, so now it's three. Then you have Microsoft teams for work, so now it's four. Then I have signal for my privacy minded frineds, so now it's five. Five messaging Apps...

I think it's wild that something as fundamental as messaging is essentially now a worse user-experience than sending e-mails. I frankly wish e-mails were the common way to "text" each-other in my social groups, but that's unfortunately not the case.

> As a landlord, I require my tenants to have renter's insurance.

A landlord requiring renters insurance is illegal in the state of Oklahoma. It may be illegal in certain cities or towns as well. That said these are exceptions; this is broadly legal in the United States.

Assuming you live in the US, presumably you have ensured this practice is legal where you live.

> Take the example of GP's post, he kindly did the research for his ex-landlord until he convinced him. His ex-landlord may now see himself confirmed in that his approach to not caring is the right one, until the ex-renter brings up a very valid point.

I HIGHLY doubt land-lord didn't knew the meaning of "security deposit" and didn't return it immediately "because he didn't knew the law", especially when he was clearly ignoring the former tenant. He most likely counted on people not bothering to get it back when being ignored
Congratulations on your success so far and good luck with it - I just dropped by to say that all the sales pop-ups on your front page are quite intrusive and premature (I'm currently browsing mobile) - I'm trying to read about the features you offer but I keep getting interrupted by invitations for a demo or a free trial. It's a matter of personal preference obviously but I am never pursuaded to buy something by a sales person jumping on me before before I even know what I'm looking at, and that's much more likely to push me away altogether.

I know this sort of thing is tough to get right so I hope a bit of constructive criticism is helpful; overall it's impressive that you've launched a product that people find useful and I wish you all the best with it!

Petty landlords are the vast majority, unfortunately. All they care about is extracting rent. They don't see tenants as human beings who can struggle, but rather as a source of income to exploit and ignore as much as they can.
...where is the risk ?

Only risk really, if you're getting mortgage to get apartment to rent is that prices go up but you can then just increase the rent. Aside from "tenant completely trashed my house", the risks are nonexistent, it's one of safest ways to invest your money.

It's something that requires judgement and balance.

We've all seen P.O.S. enterprise software products that take the "we-don't-care-about-paper-cuts" attitude to an absurd extreme. Everyone who has to use them uniformly hates them. I am looking at you Oracle, MF-er!

The thing is paper cuts are everywhere, you're going to run into them, it's part of why you're paid to do what you do. The Chinese have a word for this. I think it's "Chabuduo", it's a kind of nonchalance about snags and imperfections in favor of getting stuff done. It works. To an extent. At some point, however, you have to get your shit together and address the snags that come up over and over again. If you don't it's a sign of not caring about the people doing the work and the people who have to use your product.

There's another word that's the opposite of "Chabuduo". It's "mise-en-place" from the realm of cooking. It means having your space, tools, and ingredients (work materials) laid out, pre-measured, and ready to go. It's absolutely necessary, IMHO, for consistent quality work-- and not just in cooking.

Knowing when to "Chaduduo" and when to "mise-en-place", I think, makes for the most productive work.

What are they supposed to do, not have a world championship?

It's happened before when Fischer refused to defend the title. And yet Karpov got the title without having beaten Fischer, who he probably wouldn't have beaten in a match even if Fischer was nutty bananas at the time. But at least he had played a match to win the candidates tournament at the time.

This time around, Ian hadn't won a match, and so the match made sense to me, because the world championship is decided by match, not tournament.
Nothing in the government should benefit those with more money.
In the UK it was such a routine thing (landlord not giving your deposit back) that I just stopped paying the last months rent before moving out.

The UK does have a supposedly mandatory deposit protection scheme, but a lot of dodgy landlords aren't compliant with it, and the dispute process is a fucking nightmare.

> why should consumers care of some pirated books appear on Amazon?

As the article demonstrates, when the quality is extremely low, the consumers suffer. Also, in this case, the price of the pirated books is the same as the price of the authentic books, so this is not a good demonstration of Karsten’s armchair economic theory of software piracy. In this case, the consumer loses and the real authors & publishers lose, while these fraudulent middle-men, the fake publishers and Amazon, pocket the difference in price. This is bad for the consumer and bad for the economy, in addition to being illegal.

Your question implicitly is asking why we even have Copyright Law and/or the Berne Convention, which is something that has a long a rich history. I don’t feel like we need to justify the existence of copy rights. There’s a rich debate on how long copyright should last and what the limits should be, but very few people suggesting we should just get rid of it completely and allow the pirates to flourish.

There's a story about the opera singer Kirsten Flagstad (1895 - 1962) from when she performed at a small place somewhere, singing opera songs with just a piano. Afterwards one from the audience actually complained directly to her that she didn't sing well, she was out of tune. She apologized and said that she had perfect pitch, and the piano wasn't tuned to her inner pitch - and she found herself unable to adjust to the piano.

As for singers in general, I've seen lots of professional singers who don't have perfect pitch but still can cold-start a song - they know their own vocal cords so well that they can start at the right pitch with confidence.
Many countries effectively have a speed tax at least for small amounts of going over the speed limit.

I'm not sure why you keep harping on about people's wallets? Yes, rich people can afford more stuff. What else is new?

The economic theory of taxing externalities does not rely on all people having the same size wallet.

Have a look at eg London's congestion charge: it's not a problem for that system, that some people are richer than others.

You can also look at Singapore's congestion charge or Singapore's Certificate of Entitlement system. Or look at the very successful US sulphur dioxide cap and trade programme: it's not a problem that rich people can in theory just pay to emit more sulphur dioxide, the system still works.

Sorry, I don't understand. The price will generally be above that threshold, otherwise why would anyone bother extracting the stuff?

> Fracking [0] is my Favorite one.

Fracking is great, yes, I agree. One my favourites as well:

The extra natural gas that the US got from fracking allowed them to reduce their carbon emissions in the 2010s, despite lack of political support for such a goal! Holier than thou Europe meanwhile increased their carbon emissions, because fracking is verboten over there, so they burned more coal and oil instead.
