> the unsustainable division in society of and "us" and a "them"

Assuming we've zoomed in on the US in particular that division doesn't seem to be increasing except in people's heads. We have more unfiltered access to our representatives than ever. Even law enforcement abuse has been worse at every point in history before now. The difference in sentiment is largely due to higher expectations. Which isn't a bad thing at all I'm just saying we're mostly on a positive trajectory.
> I'd add that these days it totally makes sense to download libgen's entire archive, because (1) storage has never been cheaper, and (2) you can use it to train local LLMs.

Hardly. Data hoarding comes with most downsides of hoarding physical objects. It's just smaller, cheaper & easier to process.

There's people that get rid of any physical object they haven't used in the past year (or 2, or 5, whatever). This makes sense. Imho, every object you own falls in 3 categories:

1) Things you use on a (semi?) regular basis. They make your life easier/nicer.

2) Things that are valuable. For flexible metrics of what constitutes value (sentimental, nostalgia, monetary, insurance against 'disaster', ...)

Not having used something in a long time is a good hint it's not valuable.

3) Luggage. Whose value is negative. It doesn't provide anything, just takes up space, drains mental energy (and possibly other resources), and in doing so gets in the way of other pursuits.

Data is no different. For any single piece of it, you either use it from time to time, somehow derive value from it, or it is useless luggage that you drag around at a cost.

Apply good judgement in what to hoard.
With Java 11 they hid a lot of internal functions that people had used in their code, so breaking things. But that was never really part of the public API, so strictly not a breaking change.

I remember moving to Java8 changed the iteration order of hashmaps etc, which also broke some stuff for us. But again, that was mostly our fault for relying on unspecified behavior.
Finally. The distinction was so silly.
If you aren't worried about partial checkouts & permissions

The biggest issue is deciding what to build across developers and their branches & products. You don't want to build the world on every commit, but you do want to ensure that you are building what the code would look like post-merge before the merge.

"No more" can have many slightly different meanings... I think this specifically means "no further/not more" rather than "no longer"
It's a kind of text input which mixes text and edition instructions, look at the demo
`#pragma once` is to prevent a header from being reparsed repeatedly for the same translation unit when ten different headers all include a common one transitively.

it replaces the prior pattern of including code predicated on a unique definition defined only within that same block to avoid double parsing.

/* if it isn't unique, you're going to have a bad time */
#ifndef SOME_HOPEFULLY_UNIQUE_DEFINITION
#define SOME_HOPEFULLY_UNIQUE_DEFINITION

...code...

#endif /* SOME_HOPEFULLY_UNIQUE_DEFINITION */

This, however, doesn't stop those same headers from needing to be reread and reparsed and reread and reparsed for every single cpp file in the project.

So if people were searching for "Day at Nürburgring" and used to find OP's site, then Google changed their algorithm, and now when people search for "Day at Nürburgring" they don't find OP's site, how is that not Google’s fault?

While I think it's the right outcome, the reasoning from the EC is horrifying. The real problem is that iPadOS was never a separate platform in the first place, and should have been grouped with iOS. The EC could just have ruled on that.

Instead they seemed to have accepted Apple's fiction about these being separate platforms, and then to get the outcome they wanted they just ignored the own inclusion thresholds. Look, the EC set these thresholds. They had years to review those thresholds. And the moment they produce an outcome the EC didn't want, they just go "lol, the threshold was never 45M users, it's actually about being 'close to 45M users'". Will everyone now be judged on the basis of being pretty close to the threshold, or was that a one off for Apple? What even counts as "close"? Are we talking 40M? 30M? 20M?

What a clownshow.
> We kindly ask Mr. Sak Mai Dik to the office counter of United Airlines
This is both a very encouraging and very discouraging news story about AI.
Nah. This isn't the reason. The reasons to quality drops are economical / just a result of how anyone runs the place.

Here are some reasons why quality drops with foreign / powerless workers:

* Job is an asset. More so in poorer countries where even a low-paid US job makes a huge difference in terms of earnings in local currency. This is also, to a lesser degree what happens to visa workers. Fear to speak up. Fear to say anything that contradicts boss' plan. Losing a job like this has much more severe repercussions to the employee than if they were locals who can simply move on to another job just like the one they were fired from.

* Comprehension. No matter how good employee's English is, it's still the second language. It will make communication difficult. Beside the language, it's also often that employees who live in poorer countries have never seen either the equipment they are writing for, nor the customers who are going to use their products because simply don't exist in their countries. We rely on such shared experiences when we communicate the goals or when omitting details we even don't explicitly think about, while to the foreigners this could be completely unknown and unexpected.

* Work ethics are different between cultures. Vertical relationships in work hierarchies can be very different in different countries, which can easily prevent vital information from reaching its target. The desirable properties of employees are evaluated differently. Also, different cultures will have different ways to slack, which may not be easily recognizable to the other side.

----

In other words: it's hard to reliably transfer ideas (s.a. requirements, acceptance criteria, compensation etc.) across cultures, and this leads to failures. It's not necessary to put the blame on just one part of the team: both teams fail to communicate, and to ensure quality... but this also means that either teams' complaints are very legitimate and relate to some objective reality. Although some may start jumping to conclusions that try to explain this through racial stereotypes... actually trying to interpret the real problems through the scope of racial stereotype is what's bad about said stereotype.

Unfortunately Python deployment is such a such an unmitigated disaster that it's a leading cause of Docker images.

Deploying a portable copy of Python is about 9 megabytes compressed. This is significantly preferable to multi-gigabyte Docker images.

> people are quick to declare that appX and appZ are incompatibe as they can not run on the same system due to "conflicting dependencies". but who said you have to seach libY in /usr/lib*/libY.so? if you need different versions of a lib, just install them in separate dirs and make your apps find the right one (eg. by setting RPATH or versioned .so filenames).

You make a strong and compelling argument as to why programs should bundle their dependencies and not rely on the system environment.

Users should not have to perform any witchcraft to launch a program. Download and run. No further steps should be necessary.

Yes!

Once you take away inheritance ("prefer composition"), polymorphism (better offerings elsewhere), encapsulation (not encapsulation!), message-passing (better offerings elsewhere), you're left with a small syntactic trick that really wasn't that hard to do in C.

Even Lua gives you that [1]:

> This use of a self parameter is a central point in any object-oriented language. Most OO languages have this mechanism partly hidden from the programmer, so that she does not have to declare this parameter (although she still can use the name self or this inside a method). Lua can also hide this parameter, using the colon operator.

function Account.withdraw (self, v)
self.balance = self.balance - v
end

function Account:withdraw (v)
self.balance = self.balance - v
end

Singular "they" was one I resisted for a long time, but it's a lost cause.

I've had almost the opposite experience from you. I'd long embraced it as the correct word to use when referring to a person of unknown gender or to a hypothetical individual, but having to use it regarding real people caused me problems. When my wife became coworkers with a non-binary person and its usage came up every few days, the better I got at gendering them properly the worse I got at everyone else. First I started accidentally calling her other friends "they", and then I started sometimes referring to any woman as "they". Fortunately that coworker took a job elsewhere before I started referring to men as they too.
I think "inflammable" is a fake word.
Words might lie, but deeds do not lie. Look at what they do, not at what they say. Apple is only about bottom line. Look at the Foxconn manufacturing. Look at what chemicals are actually in their computers. Look at their relentless focus on using the cheapest labor and put suicide nets in their facilities instead of giving people a few more dollars per day.

Now, every successful company have to have a great bottom-line and that should be a focus as well yes. Not sure how to balance that for a big company like Apple, and I am happy I am not in that position.

That one's fun, because they don't really mean the same. It's just that there usually is no functional difference between the meanings.

"to inflame" is to set something on fire. "to flame" is to be on fire. So something that's inflammable can be set on fire, something that's flammable can burn.

> Apple's business user numbers exceeded the quantitative threshold elevenfold, while its end user numbers were close to the threshold and are predicted to rise in the near future.

C'mon EU! This is as bullshit as the US's TikTok ban justification.

Apparently they define a threshold but then use a number that doesn't reach said threshold as justification to take action. We're not talking about troops massed on a border here: if they defined a threshold for action they should not then use it to justify action when the target hasn't been reached yet.

Regardless if you agree or disagree on the EU's position, it's hard to support the rule of law when it's explicitly arbitrary like this.
