> For instance, we don’t value the life of a small child less than the life of a grown adult, even though the child is smaller and less “intelligent” than the adult. Similarly, we don’t value adult humans based on their intelligence.

On the contrary, children are valued higher than adults, generally speaking.

We _absolutely_ value adult humans based on their intelligence, this is generally reflected in things like… salary.

So you're replacing the "complexity" of the static site generator with the "complexity" of custom web server configuration.

I think the post you're replying to was trying to make the point "it's worth the complexity"
Isn't that just like taking a phone call? I'm not sure what you're trying to imply.
very nice! looks clean and simple.

You can use some charity to the post, of course. They almost certainly mean "never had symptoms" and likely never tested positive on a test. So, even with your point that excessive testing could have shown that they had it; I think it is clear what they meant. And it is a puzzling situation.
It should be but the current SC has an ideological bent that pushed them away from that simple solution to this can kicking maneuver. It would be far simpler to stick to the First Amendment where the government can only control what a person/company does, and just as importantly doesn't say, in specific circumstances.
It's not the same.

Ruby does something similar but the variables are bound in the scope of the case block.

I love programming. I can do leetcode problems. But I was never that great with the people part. I wasn’t very successful in a software (development) engineer role. I enjoy programming as more of a solo activity. I think this was more common in the past, but the world has changed, and it seems like you really need the social component these days to be a successful software engineer.
Static site generators are very simple... so not really understanding what they are getting at. And for all the people who seem to struggle with writing markdown files or using a static site generator check out pagescms: https://pagescms.org/
Python is very powerful and can therefore be quite complicated and has some pitfalls for beginners.
Yes, this is a reasonable approach, but how are certificates deployed and managed?

How do we deploy a list of certificates that a service should accept?

How do we do certificate rotation and revocation?
If I go with C++, I'll take QT, which has lot more extensive controls library and in fact allows me to be more productive than wxw.

Unfortunately, the main productivity limiter is C++ and that's something I really want to avoid. I've been writing C++ professionally for about 8 years so I think I can make such statements.
I've come to the conclusion that "character" is worth abandoning as a coherent concept. Words and bytes are much more useful and easier to define and aren't dependent on which runtime you're using, and the number of times it's worth slicing a word into characters is actually pretty low. One exception to this might be chinese (and I'm sure others) where differentiating words is not a straightforward task of splitting by whitespace, but they also have much more straightforward glyph rendering bypassing most of unicode's nastiness. Random access strings in chinese are actually super straightforward once you abandon run length encoding to heavy users of ascii and emoji.
You're smart. Here's a link:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_nominations_to_the_Sup...

Notice that whenever there was an A1-A2 party split, especially when a nomination was approaching an election, either the nomination failed, or it didn't succeed until the lame duck (if the president's party won re-election).

The exceptions require some better historical knowledge. For example, Democrats approved Anthony Kennedy (the most liberal justice a modern republican has ever nominated) in late 1987, but only after they had blocked Robert Bork.

The historical precedent for compromise was even in the data: when it was successful, the votes were XX-0

The real failure here was on the part of Obama, who refused to budge at all with the political lean of his nominee. He looked at the polls, saw that Hillary was slated to crush someone who was essentially running as a joke, and thought "I don't need find a bipartisan compromise, Hill will just fill this in January."

But even when it's not close to an election year, look at the Nixon years. Democrats blocking everything until they got nominees they truly approved of. I'm sorry Obama had such hubris as to think Dems were a lock for 2016 that he didn't have to compromise, but he rolled the dice and lost. Sorry. That doesn't make it illegitimate. It makes it the same exact political situation that has always existed.

> Abstractions, in the mathematical sense, always hold (unless there is a flaw in the definition itself). Axioms in any sense are always going to throw a wrench in things. Thank Godel. But that shouldn't mean we cannot make progress.

But this seems like an argument against formal verification. Formal verification is 100x harder than writing tests...and still doesn't guarantee correctness? Those axiom wrenches are still there, those flaws in the definition are still there, not to mention the flaws in the proof writing. All that extra effort for what gain?

> When programming, you tell the computer with a special code what to do.

I'd suggest changing that to something like "with a special sequence of commands".

While one can refer to computer programs as "code", it doesn't work to refer to them as "a code" -- when people read that they'll think of a short sequence of letters or numbers, and it will be confusing.
I am sad I read this, because patch is perfect, but I doubt they will change the language again.
That seems like you've have to get past Section 230 still and this kind of work pushing state authority down to the individual as a kind of work around like they did with the abortion bounty laws before Roe was struck down is an insidious cancer if it's allowed to continue.
Immunity for things they do as part of their official duties. I suppose it’s reasonable but the question will now turn to what is actually an official duty.

The opposite holding, where they are liable for everything, would be untenable. Could Obama be prosecuted for ordering drone strikes that unintentionally killed two Americans? It seems like that world would hamstring the president far too much.

I don’t know if they struck the right balance here (and we not know until the next time it comes up), but at least we have slightly more clarity.

One summary:

> In a ruling on the last day before the Supreme Court’s summer recess, and just over two months after the oral argument, a majority of the court rejected the D.C. Circuit’s reasoning. As an initial matter, Roberts explained in his 43-page ruling, presidents have absolute immunity for their official acts when those acts relate to the core powers granted to them by the Constitution – for example, the power to issue pardons, veto legislation, recognize ambassadors, and make appointments.

> That absolute immunity does not extend to the president’s other official acts, however. In those cases, Roberts reasoned, a president cannot be charged unless, at the very least, prosecutors can show that bringing such charges would not threaten the power and functioning of the executive branch. And there is no immunity for a president’s unofficial acts.

[…]

> In her dissent, which (like Jackson’s) notably did not use the traditional “respectfully,” Sotomayor contended that Monday’s ruling “reshapes the institution of the Presidency.” “Whether described as presumptive or absolute,” she wrote, “under the majority’s rule, a President’s use of any official power for any purpose, even the most corrupt, is immune from prosecution. That is just as bad as it sounds, and it is baseless.” “With fear for our democracy,” she concluded, “I dissent.”

If both services are created and managed by you then you have these possibilities:

- API Key (quick & easy with reasonable security)

- OIDC (OAuth) (client now "pretends" to be a user, or acts on behalf of a user)

- Client Key Authentication (can be quick & easy if you have infrastructure in place)

All three approaches suffer from a common problem: secrets management. When using an API Key, it's the API Key itself that's the secret needing to be managed. When using OIDC the password is the secret needing to be managed. When using Client Key Authentication the client key is the secret needing to be managed.

Generally-speaking, you don't want to put your secret into your codebase and check it into git (or whatever source control system you're using).

How you manage these secrets depends on what platform you're on, and the languages and frameworks you're using or even whether your organization has setup a secrets vault. There's a dizzying number of options for managing secrets. Regardless of which route you go with managing secrets; these are the three main strategies you can use for securing your APIs.

I'm dismayed by this ruling but I'm curious: can someone defend it? I'm able to understand the counter-perspectives to my own on many hot-button issues (2nd amendment, abortion bans) but this one seems very nakedly bad. But maybe I'm just not seeing the counterpoint?
Sotomayor's dissent ends:

> Never in the history of our Republic has a President had reason to believe that he would be immune from criminal prosecution if he used the trappings of his office to violate the criminal law. Moving forward, however, all former Presidents will be cloaked in such immunity. If the occupant of that office misuses official power for personal gain, the criminal law that the rest of us must abide will not provide a backstop.

> With fear for our democracy, I dissent.

Chilling words.
There doesn't seem to be any restriction like that in OpenAI terms.
"Never in the history of our Republic has a President had reason to believe that he would be immune from criminal prosecution if he used the trappings of his office to violate the criminal law. Moving forward, however, all former Presidents will be cloaked in such immunity, If the occupant of that office misuses official power for personal gain, the criminal law that the rest of us must abide will not provide a backstop.

With fear for our democracy, I dissent."

and

“Let the President violate the law, let him exploit the trappings of his office for personal gain, let him use his official power for evil ends. Because if he knew that he may one day face liability for breaking the law, he might not be as bold and fearless as we would like him to be. That is the majority’s message today. Even if these nightmare scenarios never play out, and I pray they never do, the damage has been done. The relationship between the President and the people he serves has shifted irrevocably. In every use of official power, the President is now a king above the law.”
“Orders the Navy’s Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune.”

Like many things in git, the capability exists, but I would not call worktrees easy. The few times I have tried to play with worktrees resulted in enough friction that it felt safer to use a clone in a separate directory.

> Roberts explained in his 43-page ruling, presidents have absolute immunity for their official acts when those acts relate to the core powers granted to them by the Constitution – for example, the power to issue pardons, veto legislation, recognize ambassadors, and make appointments.

Most likely not. Watergate was a result of an election campaign, not official acts as President.
Typically for the same amount of time Republicans spend whinging about personal freedoms when a populist democrat is elected. The years are inversely proportional to the number of terms the US voters choose to elect them for, much to the outspoken chagrin of whoever's unpopular at the time.

It would make it illegal to use the tapes as evidence against him. So it doesn't matter if it makes it legal or not, because it makes the illegality impossible to prove in a court of law by denying evidence to the prosecution.
