I meant "free" as in "beer". I am aware that SPSS isn't open source, but as usual, there's nothing stopping the last open source version from being forked and maintained. You need to go through the code and documentation and s/Redis/Libredis to avoid trademarking issues, but there's nothing stopping the industry from continuing open source development and maintenance.

If the industry comes together, and Redis only sells limited copies, as I would expect from a previously free product, it will effectively look like Redis is a fork of its open source version, not the other way around. If the industry doesn't (because that would require time, money, and effort), I can't say I have much of a problem with the situation, because apparently people were using the Redis devs for free work and not much else.
> the replacement bridge was built with a series of "structural dolphins" and concrete barriers to protect against ship strikes.

Given how the Skyway collapse is burned into the local consciousness, I suspect some of the benefit comes from their visibility.

I truly don't know how the dolphins would fair against a massive ship strike but I can imagine them doing their job.

As someone who wants to see Assange go free, I continue to believe the best outcome here is for him to be extradited and face trial in the US. I do not think the government's case is strong enough to convict him, and his being acquitted at trial would be by far the best outcome possible here.

The fact that he has been imprisoned in the UK without trial or conviction for the last four years is insane (he has been imprisoned for 5 years but the first year was for a bail violation). This should simply not be possible in a modern liberal democracy.

This is the best possible outcome from the standpoint of the US national security machine -- that he remains imprisoned indefinitely while waiting on a Kafka-esque system to finally grind him to mush, and serves as a dire warning to other journalists who would defy them.
I can't imagine how it is to be so insulated from the world to not be able to name a single major bridge construction in the past 50 years.

It doesn't require a whiz kid to get around the absolutely terrible implementation of parental controls on iOS.

Can git attributes help in this case? It allows you to teach git how to diff binary files using external tools. Here [0] is a demonstration for teaching git to produce an "image diff" for *.png files using exiftool. You can do something similar for *.sqlite files by adding these 3 lines [1] [2]. The sqlite3 cli needs to be installed.

Alternatively, there's a tool that might also fit the bill called datafold/data-diff [3]. I'm pretty sure I originally heard of it on a HN thread so those comments may offer even more alternative solutions.

So you grew up without AOL Instant Messenger, Yahoo accounts, web forums and MySpace? Or for the generation before that, Geocities and Usenet?

The current form of interactive online platforms may be flawed but banning teens from using them is not the solution and any effective method of enforcing such a law is likely to run afoul of the 1st Amendment. Besides obviously the Tinker v. Des Moines precedent about how teens have the right to engage in non-disruptive speech at school which is probably sufficient to overturn this if the Supreme Court recognizes the precedent.

Under COPPA, the "parental consent" requirement for under-13s to sign up for online accounts turned into a de-facto ban because no parent or web site wants to deal with mailed permission forms. The informal "don't ask don't tell" policy works pretty well though because it functions as an IQ test to keep the kids who are too dumb to figure out that you're supposed to lie about your age (as I did to be able to use Geocities when I was 10) off of the internet. A "parental consent" requirement is effectively a ban which is what it was in the original law that DeSantis vetoed. But it sounds like this was a major priority for the Speaker of the state House so it was going to happen in some form possibly over the governor's veto in a worse form if he completely opposed it.
If that were the case, there would have been insurance companies that understood statistics and deep, local and domain- knowledge of farmers on what is needed to mitigate or predict risks.

I'm quite sure insurance companies know this extremely well. But either choose to stay on the safe side because of extreme risk aversion and quite certainly because of monopolies or vendor-lock-in.
In light of empirical evidence, it is positive legislation. However, let us not be fooled that the problem is the algorithms. In my anecdote I see a clear divide between the classic phase of interaction in chronological order and algorithmic intervention.

The action of algorithms orchestrating human interactions reminds me of Asimov's Mule[0] and at this point in events it is certain that the algorithm builders have very fine control over human mental patterns. If I were to choose just one target for my efforts to sanitize the internet I would focus my fire on algorithms. Legislate without mercy.

> Ad tracking has nothing to do with privacy.

It has; it directly violates my privacy by tracking me against my will. This implies collecting data about me without my consent.

> The app is already tracking your every move to serve relevant content.

Which is also illegal under the GDPR: An app may not track anything it doesn't immediately require to provide a value to the user, it may not track anything it didn't get explicit consent to track, and must disclose why it is tracking what, how, why, as well as where and how long it keeps that data.

> Serving relevant ads is the same thing and is no more of an infringement on your privacy.

Serving relevant ads is fine, if you can do it within the boundaries I described in the previous paragraph. If you cannot, you cannot do this legally in the EU. There is no wiggle room here; apparently some people refuse to understand that some American business practices are simply not feasible in the EU - period.
That’s really interesting to use ubiquitin for replication since “ubiquitinylation” (tagging proteins with the same) is a common signal for protein destruction.

I had a summer job once, filling trains with sugar. They weighed about 15kkg per wagon (usually 5-10 wagons per train IIRC).

One time the pulling cart broke down and we had to switch it for another, but when we took it off the rails we forgot about the "shoe" that is supposed to go between the rail and one of the wheels so it can't move downhill (it was like 1degree of slope so barely recognizable as a slope).

It started moving extremely slowly, and all of us except one tried to hold back the force of the train, which of course was imossible and dangerous. The one who did not try to push it very quickly found the "shoe" and put in place. Initially it did not seem to help at all, the train just continued moving at the same pace, tearing up asphalt with the shoe. It finally came to a stop after about 3-5m(?) which takes a fair bit of time with such low speed, and felt like forever given the situation.

The train tracks headed out into an open road, so it could have been so much worse if it were not for the only person thinking clearly in the situation (he was one of the more experienced in our group).
I think there are magnitudes and cliffs for this stuff.

TV --> has quality control, professionally done, goes through a team of editors/creators before making it onto the screen

Early internet --> Mostly harmless content, can find dark stuff if kids look for it but it's pretty hard to find. More dangerous than TV but not too bad.

SMS --> just chatting with people you know. Not afraid.

TikTok, IG Reels, Youtube Shorts, Snapchat, Twitter: Good luck to you. Your kid is going to see a ton of deep fakes, edited images of unrealistic body proportions that the influencer won't disclose, heaps of radical and extremist views, undisclosed sponsorships masquerading as advice, targeted ads that anyone can buy, etc.

The magnitude is much higher now - hence I think laws need to come in to make it easier for parents to get back some control.

Go ahead and try to teach your kid who is going to spend hours each day seeing hundreds of videos each day - probably tens of thousands in a year. What are you going to do? Watch 100 Instagram Reels per day with your kid and explain each and every single one? As an adult, even I'm easily influenced by this stuff.

All of this is over the Manning leaks, where Assange tried to go over the documents with the US government so he could do a responsible disclosure. The US refused.

He then got a team of journalists together to sift through the documents to make sure things were properly disclosed. Some Guardian journalists then published the encryption keys in a book.

> But I’d say the error rate is actually very low, maybe .1-1% and nowhere near 10-20% of data being messed up.

The thing with CSV-related issues is it's usually not a fixed percentage but instead depends on the data.

I work in the VoIP industry so I deal with the FreePBX Asterisk GUI quite often, and it uses CSV as its bulk import/export format. This mostly makes sense as the data is almost entirely (with one notable exception) simple tables that fit nicely in to rows and columns. The issue I run in to most commonly with this is that it doesn't quote numerical fields, and as a result the fields for extension numbers and voicemail PINs can be problematic when they contain one or more leading zeroes. All of the major spreadsheet software I've used defaults to dropping leading zeroes from columns they've decided contain numerical values, and this results in broken data in these cases. It's of course relatively rare for users to choose a voicemail PIN starting with zero and even more rare for extensions to be set up with a leading zero, but both happen regularly enough that I need to remember to manually configure those columns as "Text" when opening an extension export CSV.

Either way, how often the problem occurs depends entirely on the data being sent through this pipeline. Most sites will never see the problem on the extension column, but one of my sites where the company liked a user's extension to be the last four of their DID when they were initially set up 20 years ago has a dozen of them in a row.

They can delegate or they can archive and choose not to use this data for anything other than the stated purpose.

Are they indirectly saying that they can't restrain themselves and that any data they collect for whatever reasons is fair game ?

I guess their problem is if someone submits identifying data willingly they will not be able to use it for other purposes without consent and they will look suspicious even when they infer the data/connections independently.
Pure speculation on my part but I think the way it will go down is Canva will announce that you can get access to Affinity products via a Canva subscription, with an option to buy the individual products outright like today.

It's a bit rich to be lectured by Russia on freedom of speech.

Word to Russia: "Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye." (Matthew 7:3-5, English Standard Version.)

I mean, look, the US should be judged for how it upholds its own values, and it does so less than perfectly. It justly deserves condemnation for when and where it falls short of its own stated values. But Russia... does Russia really want countries to be judged by freedom of speech?

> by default fibers should use "full" stacks, i.e. a reasonable amount of unpopulated memory pages (e.g. 2 MiB) with guard page

Then wouldn't we loose the main benefit of fibers (small stacks leading to a low memory usage in presence of a very large number of concurrent tasks) compared to native threads (the other main benefit being user-space scheduling)? Or perhaps you're thinking of using fibers configured with a very small stack for highly concurrent tasks (like serving network requests) and delegating tasks requiring C FFI to a pool of fibers with a "full" stack?

I don't believe you. And you know why? Because because what the async syntax permit is just a superset of the capabilities of goroutines: Any goroutine-based code can be rewritten into async/await, without changing anything of the structure: in practice all it would change is that it would add .await at yield points. Yes, async Rust code in fact resembles a lot the code you're used to, with “tasks” (which are functionally goroutines) and channels (just have a look at tokio's documentation[1] to see how it looks like).

But for some situations, in addition to the goroutine style, async/await allows you to have a much more straightforward implementation (cancellation, timeout, error handling, etc.). Even then, there's nothing stopping you from using channels and select for these use-case when using Rust async/await. (In practice people don't because nobody sane would use channels and select to implement a timeout instead of tokio::timeout, but you can).

Saying that goroutine and channel are easier to read than async/await Rust is like saying your car can drive slower than mine, and it just reveals that you haven't actually ever read async rust code and you're just imagining how bad it must be because of some prejudice of yours.

The main risk here is not to the sender but to the receiver. Receiver gets an OTP code from some number, it works, then they associate this number with telegram.

I work with Frontier and ORNL/OLCF. They have had and continue to have issues with AMD/ROCm but yes, they do of course get excellent support from AMD. The entire team at OLCF is incredible as well (obviously) and they do amazing work.

Frontier certainly has some unique quirks but the documentation is online[0] and most of these quirks are inherent to the kinds of fundamental issues you'll see on any system in the space (SLURM, etc).

However, most of the issues are fundamentally ROCm and you'll run into them on any MIxxx anywhere. I run into them frequently with supported and unsupported consumer gear all the way up.

The FOSS code still exists, so there's nothing stopping you from continuing to use Redis, or more realistically, a Redis fork that will continue being maintained. The time spent on Redis is only wasted if nobody sets up a fork or if businesses move away from Redis because it costs money now.

It sucks to see an open source project become proprietary through the SPSS, but if the community is as strong as all of those social and intellectual investments make it seem, there will be no problem maintaining an open fork. I imagine the independent open source contributors won't be as willing to contribute to Redis now, so there's a chance to maintain the open source version.

This approach worked for MariaDB, LibreOffice, and a bunch of other projects that went through similar controversies.

There’s an alternative to a blanket restriction on all types of social media:

When I was growing up, there was basically just ICQ (predominantly chat, sparse text profile), then MSN (predominantly chat, sparse text profile with one or a few profile photos), then early MySpace where nobody was uploading their real identity. I think it would have been a shame to not have access to those types of networks. I met so many people through those types of networks.

The law could put a restriction only on the post-2005 type of social media which is about publishing a curated stream of life updates with one’s real identity in rich media (photos, videos). If you take that all of that out, there’s nothing to ‘like’ or compare yourself to.
