I think if a missile blew up my wedding and killed my family, and I found out it was because some bad guys were hiding among the guests, I'd still be pretty angry at the people who fired the missile no matter who they were aiming for.*

Experts who study the propagation of violence say that the currency of radicalism is grievance. The more grievances happen, the more support goes to violent extremists to strike back, even if this only results in more bullets coming back their way in the future. I can certainly see this feedback loop playing out on both sides of this conflict, because every Israeli civilian casualty results in more support for hard-line military response against Gaza, and every Palestinian civilian casualty results in more support for Hamas.

* This example is taken from an Obama-era US drone strike in Pakistan, because I'm far too distressed to track specific tragedies happening in Israel and Palestine in real time.
It would be meaningless. Tech companies promises are worth jack shit. The tech companies messing around in these product categories are often weak and flimsy from a financial perspective. They frequently abandon products, fail, get bought by another company that may not give a shit about their promises, etc

>SimAirport (why don't they get sued by EA?)

That is strange. The only thing I can think of is that EA isn't terribly motivated since they aren't trying to keep a broader "Sim" brand alive, just The Sims and SimCity (and it's not clear how invested they are in SimCity anymore).

Poking around U.S. trademark database, EA may not have a general "Sim" trademark— as Maxis' appears to have lapsed [0]—and maybe "SimAirport" is distinct enough from "The Sims" and "SimCity" trademarks EA has to not be worth suing over.

Yeah I only run into the issue when using an iPhone mini with an increased font size. But it’s ready to go if I add more routes. If the list grew to be too large, I would switch to a two-column layout on my homepage for the primary points of interest.

I’m a big fan of collapsible table of contents. That design paradigm allows for the higher level to use a word to indicate what it contains and then can open up to a list. But it does really depend on the type of information conveyed. I can currently get away with always avoiding hamburger menus but that might be tougher for something like a banking app to avoid.

That’s… not quite true. They tried (3? 4?) times, and the final flip-and-land catadtrophically failed all but 1. They have done it once, mostly gently, but they have not yet, to my mind, demonstrated that they’ll be able to do it reliably.

It seems likely that they’ll get there, but “hit it once” is not demonstrated to my satisfaction.

When they can hit it 3 out of 4 tries, I’ll believe they can get to a place where it’s reliable enough for cargo missions (95%). When they land it 50 times in a row without a failure, then I’ll believe they have a good shot at putting people on it eventually.

> Do you want the operating system to load the URL every time you simply copy and paste a URL?

Honestly, I wouldn't mind at all. Link previews are becoming super common everywhere in the OS and apps. If somebody texts me a URL, it shows up as a link preview. Certain websites show link previews when you hover over a link. Not to mention browsers precache tons of URLs you never explicitly visit.

Visiting copied URL's to generate link previews, even if I never use the clipboard viewer to see it, seems entirely in line with expected behavior of using URLs in an OS. The last thing I need is a complicated mental model of which OS behaviors will load URL previews and which won't. Easier to just assume they all will.

So yes, if I'm dealing with a URL in any GUI context, I expect it might be accessed at any time for preview/precache purposes. If it's vitally important that it not be, I'll disconnect from the internet entirely.

The Windows dev culture is way less command line centric than *nix, most people use either their IDE or a GUI tool.

Visual Studio has supported Git since 2012ish, I think. TortoiseGit has been around since 2008ish.

So using Git on windows has never really felt "unixy" for most windows devs, until something goes wrong and you have to copy commands off the Internet into git bash and cross your fingers.

The main reason git won on windows is the same reason it won everywhere else, which is GitHub (and other git hosts).
I had an employer who used MS-DOS + Novell Netware. Source was distributed with the application. If you needed changes, you had to pull the source file off the machine and send it to the developers. So the "same" application on different machines could have all kinds of minor differences.

I hacked autoexec.bat to load the network and set some variables that identified each machine, then run another batch file stored on the network drive that did automatic weekly backups, copied new files back to individual machines on restart (without me having to run around with a floppy disk), etc.

Once I got it set up, I did all further administration from my office, except the times I had to use the backups, in which case I would just xcopy all the files back onto the machine and run sys c: from my floppy disk.

You don't see any ruins. You see a slight bumps in terrain or grass patches that turn yellow a few days earlier each year. Only taking a picture from hundreds of feet above, with favorable lighting when shadows are long reveals regular rectangles, old plough marks and shapes of buildings that were leveled thousands years ago earlier. People like Podebard would come back to the same places for years just to catch that ideal conditions and discover additional detail or missed structures that were not visible on any previous picture.
Couple questions:

1. Are there integrator companies that take these building blocks and build datacenters for other companies?

2. Are these racks intended to be bought in large quantities and put into new datacenters?

3. Is liquid cooling an option?

4. Do you sell datacenters as well as just the racks? Do you have any of your own datacenters built out?

5. Tough question: if these are so competitive and good for your customers, why aren't you also making lots of them for yourself and also selling cloud compute?

> Given that, why didn't Windows users establish something like Mercurial as the standard, given their majority/plurality status

Most software developers use Windows and work on proprietary/internal software (and the second part was even more true when Git became the standard for open collaboration.) They—or rather, Microsoft—established Visual Source Safe (succeeded later by Team Foundation Server) as the standard for that kind of use.

SVN and then Git were standards for public collaboration, which (while it still involves lots of devs on Windows) was much more centered in the Linux/MacOS world (as what remains of the broader Unix/Unix-like world.)

Git was successful enough that places doing proprietary/internal development on Windows use it now, too, but that wasn't how it got established.

They're quite good, you have to compare with somthing similar, like Nazi bombing raids on London.

I appreciate this link to the politically neutral blog post about how the author’s hopes were dashed by Scientific American buttressing “progressive” Left ideology and the moral proposition of the worth of women. I look forward to reading more discompassionate sober analyses of data that has no intent to persuade the readers on the Why Evolution Is True blog. I personally love it when discussions about archaeology unrelated to architecture use the word “buttress” six times in one ideologically neutral post.

What we need more of in academic analysis of data is someone to ask the tough questions like “if archeologists see evidence of women hunting, isn’t that just buttressing feminism?”, “does feminism need buttressing?”, and “does this buttress Left ideology?”. There is not enough talk about what bones that are dug up buttress, and if they are sufficiently or excessively leftist.

To me, the concept of “pythonic” has lost credibility for all the reasons you mention. It used to be that “duck typing” was a point of pride, something everybody learned. Now if you’re not type hinting, I think most people consider it bad practice.

Pythonic doesn’t exist. What’s popular is all there is. I say let’s bring map, filter and reduce into fashion.

The takeaway, at least for me, is that both men were not that far apart on the topic of slavery, even though that's the primary lens through which Americans now view the conflict. Seems fair to assume the Confederacy would have abolished slavery on its own before long, as most of the world (excluding Africa and Mideast) did.

Which leaves us with this question: Is membership in the Union voluntary, or compulsory? I'm not sure the answer provided by the civil war is morally correct. No state (no matter how virtuous or contemptible) lasts forever, and it sure would be nice if people could walk away without being shot.
