I also have experience with the digital services of the Danish public sector. Trafikstyrelsen's SOAP service validates its own responses against an xsd. The data in the motor vehicle registry does not always conform to the xsd. In which case it returns a SOAP fault with the original response embedded as an escaped string in the details. So to actually get the response we need to parse it out of the SOAP fault...

Another piece of insanity is the e-TL (elektronisk tinglysning) SOAP service. Getting a non-java client generated is a PITA because of the use of the java Catalog feature. Even after hacking around it by setting up a local webserver and liberal abuse of the host file the generated .net WCF client needed manual fixes in a lot of places.

After doing that your calls still fails. It turns out the service wants the client to tell it which xsd to validate the request against (?!?). Also did I mention that the service expects every request to be signed, even when only reading information - it doesn't do anything to validate the signature though.

Can you visit arbitrary websites using such webviews? I never managed to.

And IIRC it's rather difficult to set up a webview that allows multiple domains or URLs (but I'm no android dev, and the last time I had to fiddle with this, was years ago)

> Google's increasingly cavalier attitude towards security is concerning:

> [3 bullet points unrelated to security]

Security is a field related to protecting device-users from malicious actors. Your 3 examples all fall broadly under parental-controls, which are about controlling & monitoring a user's use & access of their device - a scenario within whichc the user is the adversary, not external actors. That may be an important or necessary measure in some contexts but classifying it as "security" is misleading.
G'day :-)

Yeah this is the nice thing about writing a game without a general purpose game engine, you only need to go as deep into these things as the game needs. Spend a lot of time with general purpose engines and it’s always a bit of a pain when their world representation is a little bit ‘wrong’ for your game.

I suspect my kid found a way to use Spotify to browse the web, because he seems to use it all day and when I ask him what he listens to he just says "stuff".

> If you want a proxy variable to observe wrt Zig's growth, look at the star history on GitHub: we are today more popular than Rust was at our age.

Which does not say anything given Githubs growth and change in usage patterns from 2010 to today.

Rather, I would say Zig is lagging far behind Rust and it should have had multiples higher stars than Rust at the same time to be on "equal footing" given the multiples larger software community that exist today.
Honest question, can't this be achieved with troff/groff and maybe in combination with m4? This is one of the tools on my TOLEARN list as is something that has been forever in the command line tools.
And how do you claim as property a plot of land larger than you can patrol and guard yourself in a day? You can't. That's why enclosure is a fairly recent development historically speaking.

I'd recommend reading Debt: The First 5,000 Years by David Graeber if you want
to understand how debt, money and states interconnect. I'm not saying you can't have money without states, I'm saying states are mechanisms to grant and enforce monopolies (i.e. exclusive access to and control of resources). If you want to maintain these systems without states, you'd end up with something resembling feudalism, which is just a more direct way to enforce property claims through violence.
> Security is a field related to protecting device-users from malicious actors.

You know - sometimes, just sometimes - it is also to do with protecting organisations from careless or malicious users. The three points are related to security, even it couched in terms of parents/children
I fully agree with that. I just focused on the more exaggerated ways this behavior shows up because programmers are the first tribe to really become fully online and interacting.

For software people it is sometimes easy to forget that in most other professional domains exchange of real information, detailed opinions etc. is still much more siloed and inaccesible. It does not happen out in the open. This has a dampening effect as copycat behavior spreads much slower.
Bonus points for having archival practices that make shooting onself in the foot extra easy.
Not even sure if this is serious or not. Immutable doesn't mean you can't change data, it means you can't change a variable that has already been assigned in most languages. Everyone here redditors aside can work with mutable state, but I can also work in assembly and choose to work in rust or golang because it allows me to move faster without having to test as many things, same thing with immutable data first, i'm able to move a lot faster without having to worry about mutable state. It's really not that difficult to use immutable data structures and be more efficient than otherwise.

That movie is awesome.
Main reason is that it's not in the standard release yet. This means it's more effort to get a build that supports it (build it yourself essentially), and it's not tested as well.

Additionally, most current tools will not be able to read database files using WAL2, although this is not an issue for most applications that only use it for internal storage.

It's a weird tradeoff between innovation vs reliability, investments vs cost, but also, staff retention & hiring. I think a lot of companies follow fads as a way to attract talent. It's not in their best interest to follow the fads or spend time rebuilding the same thing over and over, but otherwise they'd run out of competent staff and are left with low energy / "safe" developers.

Up to a point, there's always a tradeoff and a turnover point; at the moment the old Cobol mainframes are one of those; the tradeoff is that there's a lot of institutional knowledge and essential processes in that code, but on the other it's harder to find competend staff that can - and want - to work with it.

>My family is doing, what I would consider, "quite well", but we'd still be pretty fucked with one more mouth to feed, the need for a larger car and possibly larger house.

What do you consider "quite well"? Does your car have a backseat? Does your home have more than one bedroom? If so, you don't need larger of either.

Yes, there are some sacrifices to having a family. Nothing in life is free. The problem is that it sounds like you don't want to your lifestyle hindered by a child. That's fine, but saying you "can't" is untrue. People much poorer than you are doing it all around the world.

Embedded webviews were the easiest parental control bypass on Windows since about Windows 98. I've played so many flash games through the documentation for Microsoft Word!

I can't find any information anywhere that either confirms or denies the possibility to bypass Google's restrictions with web views. I assume it's possible, because it's possible on most platforms, but I suppose it depends on the implementation.

I've seen parental controls that employ an (on-device) MitM proxy and DNS filtering to ensure safety, and those apps will prevent almost any app from displaying unwanted content.
For myself:

- Bullet journal. It's not an artistic statement, it's a tool for productivity. No battery-life issues, works in full daylight, no software UI/UX issues, and is automatically archived annually.

- Index cards. I keep a small stash in the inside pocket of the BuJo, as well as elsewhere (home, office, tucked into my book bag). When inspiration strikes or information needs annotating, that gets recorded. Cards are filed in boxes (roughly 3,000 cards per box). Not as searchable as digital records, but the process of trawling through the archive itself is a powerful mnemonic.

- Tickler file / 43 folders. One for each day of the month (31 folders) 12 for the year (43). Works well with the index-card method given a dedicated card file box and 43 tabbed dividers. Manages recurring / planned future events. Can be fed by / to the two systems above.

- E-ink tablet. Used for reading books & articles and listening to podcasts. This is the natural digital successor to the PDA in my view, though it shares numerous failings of the latter: software-mediated, battery-life issues (though e-ink can provide far longer life than emissive displays, in practice when used for tasks other than strictly book-reading, it requires a daily charge, perhaps more). Though there are many apps for various tasks, these tend to be silos, are end-of-lifed with alarming frequency, and the entire platform is one huge privacy tarpit. That said, handwritten note-taking systems can be useful. They have worse search characteristics than index cards however.

- Note-taking / personal wiki such as emacs org-mode, vimwiki, ikiwiki, Mediawiki, etc. These offer powerful capabilities beyond pen-and-paper systems, though typically require at a minimum a laptop (or notebook) computer, preferably a desktop and/or server. Keep complex notes and concepts, synced amongst multiple systems. Inherent cross-referencing which is amazingly useful.

The reason it works here is that this particular webview opens a Google page that links to Google.com. There is no address bar so any safe browsing enforcement will make it at least two steps harder to access most had content.

Blocking external domains shouldn't be that hard, but I also don't think parental controls are of any interest or priority for most app developers.

Ok but if hubris is profitable, why couldn't or wouldn't a private school teach it?

IBMers have a term for this: Bluewashed. They take over a company, figure out how it runs for 1-3yrs while keeping the founder/CEO (usually?), then fire that CEO and start full integration and doing things the IBM way. I am only surprised they haven't rebranded yet. My prediction would be that they will let this change take its course for 1-2 quarters (or maybe by september for budget season) and rebrand it to some b.s. name. BlueHat? IBM Linux? Who knows. This current move will make it harder for customers to jump ship but also easier for IBM to upsell support and consulting. Of course, us normal people know RedHat doesn't need rebranding even with their endgoal in mind but they might do it anyways because they follow playbooks so that if it doesn't work out, some exec somewhere doesn't get blamed. And RHEL in its new brand will do ok for a while and then people will get promoted and it becomes other people's problem where it will slowly wither and remain in a vegetative state for who knows how long.

I fear this is where companies like Google are headed, and soon.

You know, they say keeping shareholders happy is the problem but IMHO, it's that shareholders don't want money enough. They are disciplined and want specific targets met and risk calculations working out fine. They don't say to themselves "you know what, IBM made me $250k this quarter but I want a million per quarter so let them take on losses for 3+ years to get there and in 10yrs I'd be making much more money". And the way you do that is top-down restructuring so that IBM would compete against redhat instead of bluewashing it. Spend 1-2BN and 3 years with a new BU/subsidiary/culture, or at least takeover ubuntu and suse and monopolize enterprise server support and partner with cloud providers to upsell support instead of using redhat to support other dead business units.
> Name a positive masculine trait, something which men tend to have and women tend not to

This question is wrong. I mean, in the sense that a valid english sentence does not mean a valid question. See for example "which colour is the number 4" or "how many notes does the capital of france have". They are syntactically valid questions but have no real meaning.

There are no masculine traits that men have and women dont, that is not what masculinity even means. What traits, behaviours and modes of expression are related to masculinity (in western culture) are things such as leadership, honor, aggresion, competitiveness. There is a long history as to why this is the case, some cultural, some historical some arguable biological essentialist. But just because testosterone makes you more aggresive, and more competitive does not mean women are not, or can not be, competitive or ambitious.

In the same veing that feminine traits like emotional regulation, teammwork, compassion etc are not something men do not have. It is not like men only do individual sports and women only do team sports.

in other words, pitting them as exclussionary is framing the entire conversation wrong, and therefore even haviing this as an assumption "should go without saying - it's not a "masculine" trait otherwise" makes the entire question wrong.

From false you can prove anything, is an old adage in formal logic F -> any(P) . but you cannot, and should not form a basis of "masculine traits are those not expressed by women", but "masculine traits are the cultural aspects related to masculinity in a specific culture". Now you can define masculinity and time period and culture and get an answer. But the definition of "not expressed by women" is just wrong from the offset.
I'm late to the party on this, but the first thing that comes to mind with your comment is a comedian by the name of Taylor Tomlinson. She used to be a great balance of young, self-deprecating humor while mixing a healthy amount of family drama in. Her recent tour, however, was just depressing. Constant beratement of her dad in joke after joke. Much of the audience laughs because they feel the same.

I won't pretend to know her family struggles, but the public lynching of present fathers is becoming a strong dark theme.
Not really. A "container" is usually just an instance of a Linux distribution, and the work involved in updating it is roughly the same.
Yeah, same here. I don't exercise as much as you - 3, maybe 4 times a week - but yeah, it doesn't help. Sure, it feels good right when you're doing it (sometimes, hah), but the feeling doesn't persist. Some days, I actually feel worse emotionally after exercise.

I agree with you about therapy and medication: in my experience, they are the only things that work. Expensive though.

As a side note, I sort of feel triggered by this kind of article.

Depressed? Have you:

- exercised enough?

- drank enough water?

- slept enough?

- meditated enough?

- gotten outside enough?

It's passed as "helpful advice" by well-meaning people but always makes me feel like I'm not "enough". If I've done all those things but I'm still depressed, I must not have done those things "enough". Does that make sense? I'm so tired of trying to explain how hard I'm working, I just don't talk about it with people for fear they'll bring out "the list" of things I ought to be doing, and I'll have to explain that, yes, I get 8 hours of sleep a night. Yes, I drink a gallon of water a day. Etc.
A similar workaround has been available in the 'about' licenses pages. Just follow a link to a license and then you have a browser. It's useful for getting a browser on car head units, Peloton bikes, etc.
Obvious way to remove that bias would be to start by recruiting couples who are not parents but want to become parents and then follow them through their lives and their childrens lives. Within that cohort you would have a large number who would conceive naturally, some would go for IVF etc, some would adopt and some would not end up having children.
HTML to PDF is orders of magnitude slower than more direct PDF manipulation libraries in my experience, although I haven't used this particular library ( https://github.com/signintech/gopdf ) that this project uses so I can't say for sure.
But the issues you describe isn't XML's fault, it's poor oversight and lack of consistency from developers. Does anyone have an architect or API designer hat at your company? They should be responsible for designing the XML structure, setting rules on where values go, etc.

This is an issue that you will have with every kind of data transfer / representation tech, be it XML, JSON, protobuf, etc. Someone needs to have ownership, someone needs to set a standard, and everyone working on it should stick to that.
