The problem is that there really aren’t countries who are pro speech and support an open internet. The countries are all just pro-speech that they support.
I'm happy with that bias.

There are no plans to incorporate a big async runtime like tokio. This does not matches Rust's vision of small, well-focused std.

There are possible plans to implement a minimal runtime that only allows you to execute futures. No I/O or such. Mainly for tests or examples. No timeline though, at least as far as I'm aware.

There are also plans to standardize the async traits, e.g. spawn a new task, AsyncRead and AsyncWrite etc.. I don't think there is a timeline, but they wait at least for async fn in traits.

The new changelog they just announced - https://minecraft.wiki/w/Java_Edition_1.21

They are adding autocrafting:

> Crafter

> - Works as an automated crafting table containing a 9-slot inventory.

> - Hoppers can be used to insert items in the crafting table.

> - Behaves as a Dropper for the crafted items.

> - Slots can be blocked to prevent items from entering them.

> - Can craft recipes that do not show in the recipe book such as Firework Rockets with patterns.
It's more than just CSS classes. If it was just CSS classes I think people should just make their own utility classes. It adds a build step for things like, for example, tree-shaking (it'd be a massive amount of wasted CSS to add classes for EVERYTHING). It's also yet another configuration to manage

Why is it so hard to understand that the importance of the precision does not depend on the date or the event, the date is attached to, but on the activity of the reader. Therefore no rule a programmer can implement will be good in all cases. That leaves the developer with two choices: Let the user choose or display a complete date and time.

everything dies, it is part of nature's way. If, however, someone were to massively accelerate a specific individual's death, we would typically consider that a crime.

I would like to think that I will leave this world better than I found it. However, I doubt this goal is achievable. I am actively destroying my children's future, and my hoped for grandchildren's future.

I do what little I can to try to lessen the rate of destruction, but we are all part of society and all share the same guilt.

Although the articles arguments show that the decisions made were understandable and perhaps the "right decisions" for the language, there's a common theme that backwards compatibility was a motivator. I'm not saying they should have broken backwards compatibility, but "This is actually the best way to do it," and, "This is the best way that we could do it given our tough situation," are two very different points. I don't really care about the latter when I'm evaluating whether I actually like the way it's done.

If the author is here: your CSS is breaking the code example. If you remove "white-space: wrap" from the rule `code[class="language-"], pre[class="language-"]`, it seems to do the trick (though I'm not sure if it breaks things on other pages).
All the alternative methods require the same sacrifice. More importantly, most suggested treatments fail to cure deadly conditions or have major side effects or risks that are just as unethical to thrust upon people untested.

If you look at it properly, i.e. evaluate what should be your actions before the test (Do nothing, Impose untested treatment, Test with proper control to learn what to do with the majority of the population), the answer is rarely ambiguous.

There is a debate to be had on how much pre-clinical work to be done before clinical testing, but those are increasingly automated, cheap, and fast, so we often reach the point where a double-blind test is the next logical step.

The argument you present is based on either an unwarranted confidence in treatments, or information that wasn’t available when the decision had to be made.

Minecraft Java Edition 1.21 (Upcoming Minecraft Update)
Technology suffers from the same dogmatic, performative rhetoric that we see in modern politics. By hyping or rejecting the tech du jour, we are ostensibly participating in a political discussion around how we think or want the future to play out. This is true for languages, frameworks, companies, etc. This happens because when something big like AI comes out, there’s a whole group of people rushing to cash in on the change.

It’s honestly not that dissimilar to conspiracy theory culture in this respect, and it can be hard to have a nuanced and thoughtful conversation around things we don’t really when there are a lot of people invested in one particular outcome.

It's not actually the same thing. What you're talking about is inline styling which takes precedence over class-based styling. It's generally considered bad practice to rely on inline styles. The traditional approach is `style="card"` not `style="...a bunch of rules..."`

xbacklight, xcalib, xcape, xmodmap, xrandr, xset: These are utilities specific to configuring the X server. They're needed on non-X11 window systems.

xbel: I don't know what this is.

xdotool: Some commands will still work. Other commands that require interaction from the window manager might not work, but they won't work on some X11 window managers either.

xrdb, xsel, xkill: These still work, although for obvious reasons they won't affect native Quartz or Wayland applications.

By the way, none of those are ordinary X applications. Notice how none of them actually display any windows or having graphical interactions with the user? You know, that thing that X11 is designed to do? Put windows on the screen?

It is, but intent is distinct from correctness. I can believe that everyone is commenting in good faith and stating their honest beliefs, but that is little help when commenters take contrary positions and I would like to determine who is correct despite not being knowledgeable myself.

Under those circumstances, authorship is a useful signal. It doesn't need to be the sole determining factor, of course, but it's better than nothing.
Ask HN: How can I stop obsessively trying to learn new programming concepts?
I have been professionally coding for 5+ few years now and I have enjoyed it in the past. Lately, I feel like I'm doing anything except my job. I spend all day learning a new framework or niche language. Could be LISP/Clojure or Ada or a framework like Laravel, but I don't ever build anything with them.

I think learning is great, but definitely has diminishing returns. This could be symptoms of either stress or undiagnosed ADHD. It feels like I'm looking for some productivity "superpower" instead of actually programming, and the more I don't work, the more stressed I am about it. Then I avoid it. I wind up doing 12 hour nights on the weekend to catch up on work.

I really need to break out of this cycle because it's not healthy, but it's been extremely hard. My fiancee is aware I'm in this cycle and is sympathetic to it, but also annoyed I can't get a hold of it.

Normally for DDoS migitation, you blackhole on your normal ISP, and you simultaniously advertise on the mitigator. The mitigator scrubs the traffic and sends the clean stuff over a private session back to you.

If you just black hole and move on, yes that's a lose. However many ISPs will, because the quick reaction holds the most value for them.
"Uber continues to invest in robust anti-fraud systems and technology, which allowed our Global Investigations Team to proactively alert law enforcement about this case"

$1,000,000 / 700 = ~1500 trips starting in January last year. 20 months = ~75 trips a month or about twice a day.

I'm not sure Uber understands what the word, "proactive" or "robust" means.

That’s generally because the metrics you are looking at do not represent what users care about. It’s different than the testing methodology, often overlooked, and a lot more important.

I’ve argued that A/B testing training should focus on that skill a lot more than Welch’s theory, but I had to record my own classes for that to happen.
> They do it because they hate the leverage and mobility it gives employees

This really goes both ways. If you can work from anywhere, I can hire from anywhere, possibly from somewhere where the cost of living is much lower, where people are willing to do the job for less. The leverage really is coming from there still being a limited supply of labor, but that is not a perpetual given.
Ew, yuck
Those suggestions (launching stratospheric SO2 and grinding up basalt rock for CO2 absorption) sound a lot more mature to me than the ideas in TFA. However, when he talks about deployment at-scale the ideas are starting to sound as fantastic as the salty clouds in TFA. And dumping the rock flour near-shore as he suggests ("shallow oceans") seems tantamount to ecocide on the entire marine ecosystem.

Maybe that's just a me-problem, or a problem of mankind in general: the volumes and scales we're talking about (2 teraton of CO2!) just don't fit in my mind, so any solution at that scale likewise is incomprehensible to me. Then again, we only needed 200 years to produce it, so given our technological advancements, maybe it's not impossible to solve it in two decades.

I don't hold much hope though. The same government/industrial forces that delayed preventative action by 40 years will also delay restorative action, by probably the same number of years. There will be unforeseen consequences, either way. And millions will die, either way.

> TL;DR: Causal inference is a complex topic, not a simple tool.

The simple version using graphical models and joint probabilities isn't difficult to explain or teach. The issue is that to do anything useful with it at scale you either need MCMC or variational inference and that's an entirely different bag of worms all together. For medical datasets you rarely have "scale", instead you have very few sample cases and a large expert model (the doctor/specialist).

> programmers weren't a well paid or well regarded job...and programming was considered "for nerds"

It was similar in the US in the 90s. The pay was OK but nothing compared to the past 15 years or so, and socially it was not well regarded at all. The movie "Office Space" depicts what it was like pretty accurately.

At this point it hardly seems debatable that we are in a profoundly
dysfunctional culture.

The concepts of management and leadership do not disappear though.
They are more desperately needed than ever.

However, the words have lost their meaning, and who today would
willingly call themselves these things? Only the aspirational, driven
by desperation for money or a sense of personal insecurity.

There are still people who must manage and lead, but those who are
effective do so quietly, behind the scenes, and often in an unpaid
capacty. They wisely eschew titles and limelight.

Meanwhile we preseve an official veneer. The cult of corporate
"professional management", its deceitful Machiavellianism,
self-deluding bullshit and hopelessly anachronistic fetish for
efficiency is a beast feeding on all that is fresh and vital. As the
article says, "manager" became a mantle adorned only by the damaged
and immature (unseparated from parental issues) who let themselves be
made victims of a system that creates moral labour and turns its abuse
into virtuous capital.

> Leadership is responsible for culture.

I disagree. Culture arises (and has the last word) despite
leaders. Leaders and their underling managers are spat out of culture
like the foam on the crest of a great wave. And they are rolled under
the next, as if they never existed.

When culture is healthy, we will naturally get good managers and
leaders again. They may emerge from a younger generation quite
spontaneously as culture allows. What we see today is mostly madness,
literally codified mental illness of generations who cannot cope with
the change afoot..

Right. Note that Gaussian splatting as a rendering primitive dates from the early 90s, but it never saw much use. Splats aren't very good for magnification (important for medical/scientific/engineering visualization), nor do they have easy support for domain repetition (important for video games).

The new thing is fast regression of a real light field into Gaussian splats, which can then be rendered at reasonable rates. Dynamic lighting requires full inverse rendering as a preprocess, which is way beyond the scope of the technique. Technically Gaussian splats could form part of an inverse rendering pipeline, and also be the final target representation, but I'm not sure there would be any benefit over alternative rendering primitives.
