They're not laws, they're the exemption of laws, just like outlaws - "a person declared as outside the protection of the law". Terrorist means you're not protected by the law, do not get rights, don't fall under the Geneva Convention as a prisoner of war, etc. It means you get to go to Guantanamo Bay and rot for two decades without charge or anything.

But it's fine because it's the most powerful country in the world that does it. If anyone objects, they get dropped. If it comes to a vote in e.g. the UN security councel, they use their veto power.
If you're scrambling at the end of an iteration to complete quality control tasks in order to accept user stories then you need to shift those left. Split the user stories into smaller chunks (as long as they still deliver value), have multiple team members work together on a single story to complete all the tasks (swarming), and write the automated test scripts in parallel with coding or even before (TDD). People sometimes try to tell me that this approach is impractical or won't work, and yet when I led Scrum teams and forced them to do it that way it produced good results and the team members were happier.
Get real. The government of Palestine murdered 1,000 innocent people. Now they are going to receive a military response and people are pretending they are the victims.
I’m in your boat. I’m tempted to buy a cyber truck and could probably accumulate the capital when I come up on the reservation list next year but the idea that I’m being tracked and I don’t “own” all the features in the car is really off putting to me.

The ford lighting generally seems to be better in this regard but offer me the base model with longer range. I’m a big diy guy and I’m going to end up beating up a lot and I just want minimal features.

For now I now I’ll stick with my 1996 K1500 6.5L diesel with 300k miles. It will probably run until I’m dead if I keep up basic maintenance.
Specifically they're proposing adding the kinds of instructions AArch64 uses to get halfway decent code size.

At what age do you notice this typically happens at?
Having lived in UK and Germany for some time, although I'm a big fan of the British culture, I keep maintaining that Germany is much much better country overall simply because it's not centralised as UK is centralised in London.

Germany is prosperous, maybe there are not as many Unicorns as in USA or even UK, the country works like a clockwork and everyone is very active in very wide range of stuff.

All those charts showing how Europe is behind because top 100 largest companies are mostly American tech giants, some petrol companies and some construction and bank stuff from China? Those are so so misleading into making people believe that Germany or mainland Europe is a wasteland that missed out on technology.

Especially Germany, they have very well educated and healthy population and even if they don't make the most trendy consumer products right now, they still have wast infrastructure and people who can produce things.

Of course not everything is rosy, but Germany's and mainland Europe's core problems all come down to cheap energy availability and that's solvable. It's much easier to solve than stuff like widespread social problems like decline due to drug use or political instability.

They tend to rely on paperwork a bit too much maybe, they don't use credit cards that much etc. all these stereotypes are true but technology is not limited to computers, other stuff is also important and they are still pretty good in these things.
So typically what happens is I'll split out browser windows with tab groups, Firefox used to have a way of doing this from one window, but they scrapped it or its just not default anymore, it was like "Virtual Desktops" but for tabs. It was insanely useful, I think the tabs that were hidden were not even loaded in the background, so they were on standby until you can back to them.

Why isn't it?

My gut reaction is that I don't agree with you, but I can't immediately put into words why. I think it's possibly that I view a "console" for gaming as a combination of a form factor and development environment and this seems to fit that bill.

I'm interested to hear the other side though.
> Truck buyers are very conservative in both the political and non-political sense, making them much slower to adapt new technology.

While there is some truth, this is a meme. In places like Texas, truck ownership cuts across many lifestyles. You're as likely to see an attorney or doctor drive an F-150 as opposed to the stereotypical Mercedes. Walk around the parking lot of tech companies in Austin - you'll still see trucks.

> Electric trucks haven't achieved product-market fit quite as well as electric cars have. Long range towing is a weak spot.

Many pickup owners will never tow anything. They may carry weight in their bed, but overall, they're rugged cars capable of non-paved terrain.

For those using their truck for work, the Lightning actually provides some unique advantages over their gas counterparts, powering equipment.
I both love and hate this comment so much lol
“ I've seen here the post about John Carmack notes what he accomplished on a single day…”

Anyone got a link?
This is quite the opposite. Every social media that is "palestine based" is censoring any other opinion that is contradict the palestine/Hamas narrative.

Try it yourself to put some post or even comment in /r/palestine , /r/chomsky
Those are all controlled by brainwashed ISIS-supporter without any real attempt to real discussion about how to solve this situation.
He is saying Al Jazeera is not reliable. I.e maybe we should not believe their report about social media censorship.
It's the price. The base Toyota Camry is $26k, the hybrid starts at 36k and there is no all-electric. At 10,000 miles a year and $4 a gallon, the base costs $1600/y in gas and the hybrid costs $1000, so you need to keep the cars 15 years to make the hybrid break even.
Murray wrote Zionism is Bullshit in 2017. It's just as old as his pro-independence stuff.

> Humanity shouldn't wait for another holocaust.

Agreed. An international coalition must militarily intervene to repeal rules such as Military Order 158 (blocking construction of water infrastructure), rebuild important infrastructure (like the airport blown up by israel), restore critical life services like hospitals (which have been bombed 62 times), stop the murder of civilians, destroy checkpoints, walls, sniper nests and other infrastructure imprisoning the people who have lived here for millenia. The murder, displacement, apartheid, and genocide that has occurred for the past 70 years must be stopped before the terrorist ethnostate finally fills the last graves of those who did not flee their homes.

The people responsible for these atrocities -which stand alongside My Lai, the Rouge, Rwanda, the Kulaks, etc- must be held to an international trial, and should never see a life of freedom ever again. God forbid that the murder should escalate to the true eradication of the Gaza strip- if those millions were exterminated, there would truly be no event that could even be compared except for the Holocaust.
Since you want to get to the root cause and we're talking about USA, I believe that would be the American people.

Also - corporations are full of people. And those are all Americans. Even lobbyists are Americans.

But we should do something useful, and we're looking for easier targets to focus our rage and aggression on. I recommend those being the people that explicitly have been given power. Based on what I know about the American constitution, I believe that would be the government.
Thanks! Retirement spending is annual. Tooltips are on my todo list.
IMO you might as well avoid all high impact activities if you can, male or female. The risk of a life changing injury is just too high. Stick to low impact activities like walking, cycling, resistance training etc.
A 50% increase in supply (at least in the Northeast) and not a single mention of how that is going to drive down the prices for the byproducts of those sheep. That is, you can't use current prices for the cost benefit analysis of the effort because the effort is going to impact the market.

That aside, there are plenty of crops that do better in less direct sun. I guess the question is, can the solar arrays be built in such a way that farming under them is possible and still profitable.

Another alternative would be interstate highways and take advantage of the area between the north and south bound lanes. There are not trees so getting a clear line of sunshine is simple enough. Sure they might go on for miles but the square mileage is available. Otherwise that land is only collecting dust. It seems unlikely there would be NIMBY pushback. The only issue to solve would be occasionally vehicles lose control and go off the road into that middle area. But given its free and useless land currently that issue feels solvable.
So what is the problem, they are pushing things to hard and too far?
Regardless of who won't allow new elections, or why, the people don't have a say in their current government (short of internal revolution or similar).

So, like I said, there's a lot more nuance than many Americans recognize. That was my only point. And, based on the author's tweets (now shared in this thread), he actually does support Hamas, which based on British law (also shared in this thread) could actually be illegal.
>> I would gladly pay 5 - 10 euros per match seen

In the UK at least Sky offer this. You can buy a 'day pass' and get full access to all their sports channels for a day. It's about £12. Or you can pay £34.99 for the monthly plan. In reality they constantly offer deals and when you try to cancel they offer huge discounts. I think I've been paying about £20 per month for the full sports package for the last couple of years. It's wildly more accessible now than it was when you had to buy their satellite package etc. and commit for multiple years.

The poster's guide to the internet of the future
Consider you are developing a genetic algorithm with the goal of creating a cohort of entities that have the ability to pursue light. Each generation, you initialize a set of start states based on the prior generation and let things play out according to your rules. In the end, you persist those that found the light by taking their information and carrying it on in some sense in the next generation. The information of those that did not find the light is discarded.

Now, you are the author of the entire creation. At any point you can intervene in any way you want, for instance to relocate an entity that was very far from the light to be much closer to it. And you do indeed do this quite regularly. In fact a large amount of what you do as the author is go out to find the entities that are very far from the light and shepherd them back to be close to it. Sometimes, this relocation sticks: the entity sees the light, recognizes it, and continues to pursue it. Sometimes, it doesn't: the entity either wanders around aimlessly with no regard for the direction of the light, or indeed it actively pursues darkness.

At the end of the generation you have a spectrum of entities: those who never left the light, those who strayed occasionally but always took to your shepherding back, ..., all the way to those who actively ran away from the light at every opportunity. So yes, you are the author. You have complete control over how all these entitles move into the next generation, and you can save all of them if you'd like. But why would you?
I can only agree here, because I saw it with my own eyes. If not for a group of dedicated volunteers in my town, most of the Syrian refugees would just be lost causes. The group organized transportation to job applications (it's in the sticks, no public transport, etc.), helped with paperwork, organized medical care, etc. The responsible authorities are understaffed for the problem and when staffed, you have a chance that the person in charge is actually working against the refugees. Without someone being able to read and understand the local statutes, you'd be lost.
Explaining why something is the way it is, isn't the same as "excusing" it.
Personal anecdatum, different SSRIs affect people differently. Some that others here have praised didn't help, or had bad side effects.

What I am on now (Lexapro) was life changing in a good way, with only minor sexual side effects that more or less went away.

As such, studies that day "SSRIs have this effect on people" or "have these side effects" are fundamentally flawed. Despite belonging to a common class, there isn't a universal experience.
Let's examine these limitations in the context of Svelte/SvelteKit:

• functions named handleClick,handleSubmit

Agreed, not as descriptive as it could be, but when your component is noticeably smaller, arguably not as big a deal.

• preventDefault

React tries control the execution model to the point that plain JS ends up in an impedance mismatch. Go ahead in Svelte since it embraces JS. Or you can use

on:click|preventDefault={doIt}

• useMemo

N/A. This is an abstraction leak solely of React's making. Not needed at all in other frameworks like Svelte.

• fetch inside useEffect

A special wrapper library to use the Fetch API in React? Sure, you could use a wrapper in Svelte as well, but it's not necessary.

• <div onClick/>

Universally good advice no matter your framework. Use button or a tag.

• a "hooks" directory

Here's where a framework being more opinionated helps. Technically it doesn't matter where the hook logic lives, but having the framework make that decision means you don't have to, and others don't have to hunt around as much to find it.

• css files

Svelte scopes CSS to the component by default. No arm-twisting or custom build logic needed.

• icon library in package.json

Your tree-shaking tools work or they don't.
The care that must go into writing and testing software that goes out to a machine like this is incredible. I write software that, if and when it fails, it fails hard and it just comes back with no added cost to me while I go ahead and look at what went wrong and release a fix within the hour.

Not having that failure feedback loop is daunting. I really respect that kind of work.

I’m guessing it’s arguable, but in the top 25 causes of accidents (in the US), I only found 2 that are linked to the car itself. Cars themselves seem fairly safe.

This is a really good point, especially for a country that is so young and that has grown so fast. Maybe the instability resulting from that growth is yet to come but it doesn't detract from what NASA and JPL have accomplished so far.
Now I'm ready for massive downvotes here but hear me out.

Much of our professional habits are part of the corporate chains which is optimised to deliver and squeeze as much as possible.

Software developed in the wild does not have those corporate obligations and the sole purpose is to enjoy the process, the sheer joy of creating something. Of programming as a creative medium.

You don't get your paintings code reviewed. It's just that artistry. You like it, then you like it, end of the story, you're not playing for the gallery.

Corporate enslavement works differently. It has moved and distributed the part of the factory shift in charge to the dude sitting next to you, cleverly. Many are just complaining to make sure they're considered the quality sensitive cooperate loyals.

You two might like different pigments for the grass and he'll strike down your painting with a red ballpoint if not to his taste.

Happens to all of us and if not, wait for it.

Declaring a single boolean flag in a corporate environment might cost more then an hour to get to a consensus because one I-am-dffierent-I-care-too-much guy has some objection about some ambiguity in the flag name in some far future and has now swayed roughly half the team on his side.

That doesn't exist in open source. Open source is all about anti status quo. It is pure rebillion. It started that way, it is about hippies and naysayers. The very root of the GNU toolchain, Herd etc are probably there.

EDIT: Typos + corporate software development environment.

For one, I don't see why you would ever pad a 16-bit instruction with a 16-bit noop instead of just using the 32-bit equivalent instruction. That way, you can skip decoding the no-op.
That article credits Gaza officials and cites no other sources, so it's the officials in Gaza that you can't trust.

They followed up with an article about discrepancies in the reports:

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/10/20/what-have-open-sou...

This is fairly standard war reporting, you report on the news you have in a fast-moving environment and follow-up as the picture becomes clearer.

Not much different than an article from the Times of Israel for example, except they say Hamas instead of Gaza officials... they too claim their sources called it an Israeli airstrike:

Git doesn't store diffs on logical level. Git operates on snapshots of trees. Commit is not "a collection of changes", it's a snapshot of a tree with attached predecessor of it.

Then the another layer (which can be git, but also can be any other tool, adding custom diff tool to git is very easy) uses that to generate diffs.

There is zero stopping anyone from adding contextual diffs to Git. Just ask it for content of both commits and feed it to the algorithm.

Yes, git underneath stores data as diffs but they are only vaguely related to logical structure of commits

Yeah but, you refuse to give the information, so that's a crime; even with a lawyer you're then liable for a maximum of two years imprisonment.

That's the fucker about these laws; in a lot of constitutions (note that the UK does not have a constitution so I'm not sure how it works over there), you have the right to not provide evidence that may lead to your conviction. But rules like this go counter to those.
>> Obviously however software engineering has been a very immigrant-heavy industry in Europe for a long time.

That's news to me. Even in London is not that immigrant heavy unless you consider the Europeans immigrants.
> They're also saying that if you move forward with the C extension in RVA23 now there's no real backing out of it.

That doesn't seem correct. I think adding and dropping C for desktop/server workloads would be relatively easy. Most of what will be run on it is either open source (Linux, Apache et al) or Java/Python/Go/.Net. Either way, I'd expect Oracle or somebody to support both with a single installer. This isn't x86 where there is a lot of binaries with no source, or lots of janky code that assumes x86 that we need backward compatibility. (Note: IIRC RV32A is the "application" profile, not for embedded where hand tuned assembly is a real thing, things are much more fragile there).

That said, just like Linux supported multiple x86 based platforms (PC-98), I'd imagine Debian and others would support non-C processors with distros, so I don't think it would really hurt Qualcomm if it's kept and they don't include it.

> They also say that there's lots of implementations with C in already, so backing out of it now disadvantages those implementations.

Ugh. So we should hold hold onto something, even if it is a bad idea just because other people wasted time on it? That seems like a very crab-bucket mentality. Not saying it should be removed, but the decision should be technical, not based on favoring certain players.

No, you’re right; but these 4 countries aren’t even close to the European average on many aspects. Some of them aren’t even part of the EU, which is normally what gets compared against US markers.
