Obviously the court is somewhat political (as it always has been). But I think modern reporting makes it seem far more that way than it actually is. For example look at Bostock from just a few years ago.
I assume you mean downsides geopolitically, because the financial costs are sunk either way.

There are several losing states (complete annexation, split like Korea). However, there are only two main ways Ukraine can lose. The world can stop sending free weapons or even with free weapons Ukraine is defeated.

It's hard for me to think of any way that "the west stops sending weapons" is not more likely to result in Russian or Chinese aggression. Is China more emboldened by "US arms without US military personnel lost a war" or "the US can be counted on to lose interest in any conflict over 2 years"?

So it doesn't matter what the downsides are[0]. It seems like no matter what, the US is better off helping Ukraine.

> If news sites want to charge for their content they should put it behind a pay gate.

This is the 'trade journalism' model. Here, good journalism still exists, but the price is more than most people would afford. People buy trade journals when the news is important, with direct financial implications that justify the cost of admission.

General journalism, however, is something close to a public service. It's better in a vague, hand-wavy way to have an educated citizen body that's informed about current affairs, but few individual citizens derive much value from their own knowledge. (This is also why people tend to gravitate towards 'entertaining' news, by some definition. Come for the sports scores, stay for current events.)

In this model, the benefit of news is externalized. I benefit when other people are educated. This is a classic market failure, and it suggests that a reader-pays framework will underprovide news.

Landau's Theoretical Minimum, Landau's Seminar, ITEP in the Beginning of the 1950's - https://arxiv.org/abs/hep-ph/0204295v1

"...In the worst cases, when the speaker failed a few times, he was ostracized
— excluded from the list of the seminar participants, and Landau would refuse
to have discussions with him, but, of course, he (the ostracized person) could
attend seminars. (I remember two such cases — in one case the speaker was
a famous physicist, V.G. Levich, who eventually became a Member of the
Academy of Sciences). Only after a long time, a year or more, and after being
advocated by the most respected seminar participants, could such a person be
pardoned by Landau..."

I don't think of gRPC as object oriented, but I don't have a ton of experience with it. It seems like a service oriented system, with endpoints that accept parameters & return data. There's not, to my knowledge, much in the way of enduring objects.

You're not going to have dozens of Todo objects that you are callinng methods on. You're going to have a TodoService that has some methods. This is isn't very object oriented; the things sent in & out are just dumb data, it's just request/response.

I think cap'n'proto gets a little closer to having an actual notion of objects, in that the protocol has actual identifiers built in. But it's still more about services than objects.

Corba seemed to really be object oriented; you'd get back todo1 and call todo1.done().

> Is there a risk those closed source projects would be sued following the release because they disclosed some forgotten sin?

I know nothing about law, but I guess software companies would protect themselves in advance by mandating that all their developers use only software and sources that belongs to them anyway. That would be useful in case of a lawsuit where a court could force them to show the sources to prove they don't come say from the claimant's reverse engineered software, or some other FOSS project. Things might be different with 3rd party modules and libraries, where an obscure module was licensed from a company that went out of business ages ago, but all their assets were acquired by another party who finds the module in the wild and decides to sue.
Just speculating, but although I'm 100% in favor of FOSS, if the above were real possibilities, I couldn't but understand why some companies are so reluctant to release even old code they couldn't profit from anymore.
Absolutely untrue. It's legal to reimplement a third party API, as upheld by the highest courts in both the US and the EU.

So of course you don't need to remove your lines of source code which call into an API.
It was political because the federal government had not previously had the right to regulate businesses within a state. Only states could do that themselves. But gradually this overreach of the federal government has expanded and now they can essentially regulate anything because it could hypothetically tangentially affect commerce (see Gonzales v Raich). It is clear that the framers did not intend the interstate commerce clause to be used in this way, they intended for states to be able to regulate most things themselves (the so-called “police power”).

> And it only hit her just then after spending all that money that she had to find a way to pay it back on that low of a salary.

I wonder what the trade offs would be if people had 2 years of work experience after high school but before entering college.

Obviously, it would harm some people who would be delayed in their education (e.g. areas where there is a minimum of skill that isn’t gained in high school like medicine) but would also not cause as much harm to others (like software where some entry-level jobs wouldn’t really require a college education).

I think at the very least it would allow students to consider what major they want to pursue, and also help give them both world experience and a larger bank account/fallback.

I knew quite a few people who went into “undeclared engineering” or simply “undeclared” and wasted more of their years of university trying to find something that they wanted to do. It would have been much better if they had had the opportunity to explore that in a job, and get paid for it.
There are two things to ramp up on - the technology and the business.

If they know the technology that’s one less thing to worry about.

I agree where the author is going.

A problem with the federation is the combination of the identification, client, and backend into an instance, yet depending on the web/nets dns. I’d like to see more of a separation between the account, client, and data akin to google reader / third party reader client / rss. Before reader shut down, you could log into any reader client with your google account and all your feeds followed.

A good fediverse client would have separate settings pages for your accounts, and what you follow. I should be able to share a link to data that anyone can open in the client of their choice.

Another way to solve the authors problem is to make a new protocol.
Unauthorized Bread by Cory Doctorow is a relevant read here.
I'll agree that having strong consensus about the map:

(Package name, version number) -> (cryptographic hash of package bits)

Both is, and ought to be, table stakes for modern language ecosystems. But when it comes to tooling for hosting, fetching, installing, and contributing re: those maps, there's no reason to have each separate language community build an overlapping set of tools that solves those problems.

I understand that when you have a new language, building all of that tooling is probably a fun way to flex it, but it's a bigger problem than most language communities really have the interest in to solve properly. So it ends up being a hack job every time.

I'd argue that the only reason Java doesn't feel like a hack job re: packaging is that they've (wisely) solved a smaller problem. I can use pypi to install a python package with Java dependencies, but I can't (so far as I know) use maven to install a java library with python dependencies.

Better would be to have some lightweight standard for mapping package names to hashes, and then decouple the hosting/trustworthyness indicating/installing/packaging concerns such that language designers don't have to worry so much about those things since they're not really language specific problems.
Doesnt matter if they are attractive or just trying to grocery shop. You can still talk to people.

I was at a wedding a few weeks ago, specifically looking for donors or entrepreneurial minded people. When I found out that a dude worked at Amazon Warehouse, I didn't turn around and walk away, I wrapped up the conversation and--- Oh my gosh this guy has a super cool hobby with a ton of skill. I got his phone number because this person and I might benefit from connecting later. Who knows.

But more than half the conversations will flop, who cares. You and they lost a few minutes of life communicating, how terrible! Call it practicing social skills if you need to.
Emotions Affect Perceived Developer Productivity
That's mostly a function of packaging and QC, no? The temperature range I can see from a quick search isn't much different than the strict automotive range of -50 to 150C, which standard process nodes can hit.
It's a bit hard to get data about how many innocent people were killed.

The USA is the country that defines any adult male died in a drone strike as a terrorist. If the same criteria is applied to the police, the official number would have nothing to do with the real number.
Source?

I can envision a decent proportion of men, at least myself and a few I know, who would find it preferable to have a redundant source of income in the household.

Even if a woman ends up becoming a non income earning partner temporarily or permanently, having one who is capable of earning more can be a desirable trait for multiple reasons.

iPhone advertising back in 2007-era revolutionised computing and managed to convince a lot of people to pa for quality phones instead of putting up with the usual cheap product that most companies produce. It was a two-for-one.

> So if a college is 100% white in a predominately black area, would you not consider that to be somewhat suspicious?

Assuming that was due to discrimination that would be bad. Not tracking race does not beget racism. You can oppose both. Furthermore you cant prove racism or bias from an uneven distribution of race. If we stopped tracking race maybe we could avoid this logical fallacy and focus our efforts on real racism. Like policies that explicitly authorize discrimination by race.
Yeah, and in total, he says it is about having all of (mentality * training * mental agility) to deal with such a situation. Given the low entrance requirements for joining a typical police force, I doubt many officers out there have all of those things in place, let alone civilians.
Blender is absolutely amazing, but for the sequencer I had to switch to Resolve because it's just too slow. 1.5 hour long video takes 12 hours to render in blender and about 40 minutes in resolve, with just a simple chroma key processing.
> YouTube and Google are saints compared to Meta and Microsoft

They most certainly are not...

If anything, Google is trying it's damned hardest to pull off a "Microsoft v2" party.

Everything from intentionally harming competitors, defrauding their ad customers, ruthless tracking and selling information about their users, hoovering up the competition and then killing it (or at best, letting it rot in some corner). And oh - by the way! Google also happens to own the dominant web browser and is merrily InternetExplorerifying it more and more every day.

Frankly - the resemblance is so strong to mid 2000s MS that I'm staggered.
It's not even tableless.
It'd be interesting to see what'd happen if the military just pivoted into having top consumer electronics companies manufacture weapons using best-available current technology, perhaps designing them from scratch. The "peace dividend" from the end of the Cold War was literally spent on the Internet - my wife's father used to make guidance systems for SLBMs in Silicon Valley, now his son and son-in-law both work for Google. The rapid progress in software, networking, and electronics over the last 30 years is because a lot of the top engineering minds who otherwise would've gone into defense are now going into tech.

This is also what happened in WW2 - the bulk of the U.S. war machine wasn't built by the shipyards and artillery vendors that had supplied WW1, but by new consumer giants like GM, Chrysler, Raytheon, Boeing, Hewlett Packard, Fairchild that pivoted from consumer markets to the war, or defense-specific startups like Grumman & Kaiser that were founded in the 10 years leading up to the war to capitalize on new technologies. WW1 technology was generally obsolete by WW2; the war was fought in a fundamentally different way, with different suppliers, because tech had advanced.

I think a lot of what you're speaking to is the result of people undervaluing liberal arts degrees.

I work in a technical role, but I have a liberal arts degree. Liberal arts helped me learn how to think, learn new things, synthesize different things into a coherent argument, and more. People ask how I RCA problems so quickly. It's because I'm used to taking a set of facts from pile A, another from pile B, etc. and bring it together to a cogent argument.

Meanwhile I'm interviewing people with CS degrees who can't even explain the difference between symmetric and asymmetric encryption.

if you labeled them or create a search that is specific to them ( perhaps from:mailing-list@address ):

there is a checkbox above the email listing. clicking it selects everything on the current page.

instead of clicking that, click the arrow next to it. a variety of selection options appears.

select "all"

a banner then appears that says you've selected everything on the current screen, and offesr to select everything that matches it in your account

click the offer to select all matching items

you can then issue a mass move or mass label or mass delete or whatever

I haven't tested this (I'm not purging my own mailing lists to try it :) ) and a selection mistake would be costly, but it appears to be correct.
The main reason for that is practicality. '\n' and '\0' are also characters. You could somehow still parse it, but it would be less clear and possibly need more escaping.
