At the time the rationale for a right was frequently included in the text, just as a modern reading of the right implies it is being used as an explanatory clause. The entire concept was that there would be no governmental army and in times of need, citizens would be able to use their arms and organize for mutual defense. In this context, "Militia" is synonymous with an decentralized armed citizenry without government oversight. The clause provides this rationale and coveys a sentiment against a standing army. here are what some state constitutions had to say about gun ownership, prior to the bill of rights.

Article XIII of the Pennsylvania Declaration of Rights of 1776 read:

>That the people have a right to bear arms for the defence of themselves and the state; and as standing armies in the time of peace are dangerous to liberty, they ought not to be kept up; And that the military should be kept under strict subordination to, and governed by, the civil power.

Similarly, as another example, Massachusetts’s Declaration of Rights from 1780 provided:

>The people have a right to keep and to bear arms for the common defence. And as, in time of peace, armies are dangerous to liberty, they ought not to be maintained without the consent of the legislature; and the military power shall always be held in an exact subordination to the civil authority, and be governed by it.

James Madison produced an initial draft of the Second Amendment as follows:

>The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed; a well armed and well regulated militia being the best security of a free country: but no person religiously scrupulous of bearing arms shall be compelled to render military service in person.

This makes no sense, google fund Mozilla to claim there is competition in the browser 'market'. Cutting them off would undermine that goal.

I'm sure Mozilla entering the ad market and taking ad business is hardly better than gaining market share as far as google is concerned, and hardly better for users.

I do agree with their VPN offering. It's not the best, but it fits Mozilla's privacy messaging/focus, and the understanding is that you are potentially helping fund the browser. Unfortunately it seems you also fund these other 'initiatives'.

And there we have it. Some people drink so much Microsoft Kool-Aide and cannot possibly fathom ever using anything else but Microsoft software. Every possible problem looks like a Microsoft solution. If the solution isn't obvious, call the Microsoft Rep and find one!

Then the predictable "what are you going to do, roll your own?!" remark... failing to realize there's more than just one SaaS company in the world.

How do you wager all the big businesses around the world accomplish all of these things you mentioned? What about all the big businesses in Russia, China, India and more? Hint - they're not all using Microsoft products and Azure...

Do you believe Microsoft is the only SaaS offering inboxes, storage, automation and more? Do you believe nothing else can use open protocols such as LDAP?

Microsoft's moat is deep, but it's not necessary. Most people eventually figure this out for themselves.
No, because rights are not granted by the constitution, rights are self-evident and natural, and people retain them without them being explicitly enumerated.

The constitution merely enumerates certain rights where the founders wanted to be extra clear that those things were rights, but it is not a limiting document.

The 9th amendment states this explicitly: “The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.”

My favorites are

- Paris Baguette: a Korean bakery chain, selling 50-50 asian and western confections but no baguettes, pretending to be French, most popular in America.

- Bondi Sushi: a New York chain, named for a beach in Australia, for a Japanese specialty.

- Outback steakhouse: American chain named for a Australian region, and depending where you are, full of Canadian imagery including mooses and snow and sleds (I went in Boston).

Paris Baguette makes sense to me, it draws a lot of people who think they're getting a French bakery, but discover and enjoy the (novel-to-them) asian pastries in the process. As a non-white American, I have always been confused why Americans love appropriating Australian branding for restaurants? Who exactly does that appeal to, and to discover what? Evidently it offends Australians. It means nothing to me who doesn't really know what aspect of Australia I would seek from such places (sushi? steak?), so it doesn't seem meant to draw people who not affiliated with Australia somehow.

Maybe Australians cofounded these places in America? Or just Americans who had life-defining experiences in Australian locations and came back to start restaurants in honor of those places? I have not dug too deep into their origins.
I clicked in here and then realised I really don't need to be looking at yet another note taking app. As I was clicking off my eyes managed to skim "I took a small break from coding SumatraPDF" which had me reopening this thread quicksmart.

I think "]" requires to be preceded by "[".

Depending how to handle "<", and ">" you can have out of bounds errors. And "+" and "-" can lead to overflow/underflow. Unless you wrap or saturate values.

Some programs can also lead to infinite loops.

So there are "invalid" programs for these purposes. What I do is to mark the program as invalid when these problems are present. For infinite loop detection, I give the program a limited amount of iterations and if it doesn't finish when the max limit is reached the program is marked as invalid.

"most don't" is a strong claim. In my experience, core review has been undoubtedly good. I would never run or join a company without it.

I'm writing code solo for the moment, and code review is maybe the thing I miss the most.

When is the release date for Windows 11 Enterprise LTSC?

It will be officially released in 2nd half of 2024, more info. Download links will
be shared here. Insider build ISO for Windows 11 LTSC has been leaked but we
recommend not installing it for general use because its authenticity can not be
verified.

Update - 24-May-2024
Windows 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC 24H2 is released to OEMs. We got the official links
from OEM portal, and it's added [here].
What did you install in Vim for inferring parens from indentation?

I use an adaptation of parinfer I found in github. It required a bit of tweaking , including adding a keybinding to turn it off, because sometimes it fights what you are trying to do. Its opposite mode (indentation from parens) does not work at all.

I quickly scanned the Rhine Regulations for Navigation Personnel. The tables starting on page 49 show minimum crew requirements for types of ships and operating modes:
https://www.ccr-zkr.org/files/documents/reglementSTF/RPN_010...

It seems to go from a single boatmaster to crews of less than 10. The smallest container ships for inland shipping are about 30-ish containers; the largest about 500.

A truck can do 2 containers with 1 driver.

So, an inland ship can do 15-30 times as many containers per crew, compared to a truck.

My company/team has very different processes for bugs vs feature requests. If a customer opens a ticket and we determine it's a bug, we will generally fix it in the reported release and later (unless it's a security vulnerability or other major problem). But for feature requests we just tell them to submit it to a community and we evaluate it to see if it's valid and something we'd likely implement given the other work we have on our plate, but not necessarily do it any time soon.

In a technical sense, I think Outback steakhouse is a classic example of cultural appropriation. However in practice, I think the "cultural differential" (difference between the cultures) and "market differential" (which one gets patronized more, a place authentic to the culture, or an appropriator?) are important details for identifying an instance of such appropriation as problematic.

If there are authentic Australian steakhouses in America or globally that are struggling or dealing with people having strange misconceptions of Australian culture, while Outback is thriving and eating into their market while perpetuating said misconceptions of Australian culture (I have no idea! It's possible...), it would be a smaller-scale but similar case to Taco Bell and the variety of struggling family-run mexican restaurants, or non-mexicans being confused/surprised/ignorant about authentic mexican food.
In my experience with RAND they always reminded me of a resource extraction company. Think oil and gas, but their trade was government contracts.

Interesting, makes sense. Thanks
One worth mentioning in this context is the Western Sydney Pumped Hydro Project. It sounds like a no-brainer. It uses the existing Lake Burragorang (formed by Warragamba Dam) and an existing hole with infrastructure at the old Wollondilly Coal Washery, 400m above the lake and 3.1km from it. It will offer 8GWh of storage, close to Sydney, basically for the effort of digging a 3.5km tunnel and installing turbines.

https://www.waternsw.com.au/water-services/renewable-energy-...

To their credit, Sydney Water has a range of projects based on adding pumped hydro to exiting dams, of which the above is one. Total storage capacity of projects announced to date is 25GWh. They seem ideal for firming rooftop solar around Sydney/Newcastle/Wollongong.

There are various levels to code reviews. Code review tools that are web based are pretty poor in my experience. Anything more than a few lines across multiple files needs a cscope type tool.

Also what type of review? Is this a prototype needing a high level design review so that the actual review doesn’t turn into a design review? How often does that occur?

Who are the reviewers and what’s the process? Key stakeholders have more influence and you need to consider the reviewer’s experience, knowledge and credibility.

Finally how important is the code? Is it kernel code, or high execution daemon code needing race condition and memory leak checking? Are you using static analysis for the code? Does the code even compile and do what it is designed to do? Where are the unit test logs?

Lots to consider.
extern templates address the issue of having multiple instances of a template being expanded inline, with only minimal mess and fuss. (A way to prevent inlining of templated code would have been nice too).
“Can you sustain brain damage by being exposed to a smaller amount of concussive force?”

“Great question, did you know if you zig and zag you become impervious to bullet :)”
I'll also echo that the site looks fine.

Very little can beat just clicking "get started" and dropping right into the tool.
Good PR culture is definitely something that has to be built from the ground up, and supported top down. At Shopify, who I think has a really good PR culture we have a few things that I think help (beyond a good CICD, and static analysis tools):

1. PRs are supposed to wait for 2 acceptances, can be shipped with 1, and can be emergency shipped with 0. So the barrier is low, but the culture supports more. We are expected to get 2 reviewers from our team to okay.

2. Depending on the code project, we have to fill out a template for the PR, what is in it, what it changes, what to look for when we test the code, etc.

3. Some areas have code owners that might require an additional review from a specific team.

4. We are expected to check out, and test branches when we review them. So a quick read and LGTM is really discouraged outside of a few small cases.

I have seen a lot of places that do the blind PR acceptance, and its tough because without this really being enforced and encouraged that culture is hard to change.
> "most don't" is a strong claim.

I'm happy to be reasonable. I guess my greater feeling is that most devs aren't great at identifying when they should identify restraint. For the same reason that most devs are abysmal interviewers, I think devs forget that code review is ultimately a human endeavor. Give your average dev the smallest amount of power and not enough guardrails and legitimate silliness ensues.

> I'm writing code solo for the moment, and code review is maybe the thing I miss the most.

I feel as though "code review" is taking on too many meanings in this conversation. Code review in the form of a second (or more) qualified dev reading and commenting on code for the greater good? Obvious good. Code review in the form of github PRs at a non-FAANG company? Skip it. Kangaroo court.
I’m glad they used empirical data and didn’t just ask people how they felt. Weird tho that it just doesn’t jive for me but I’ve never measured myself so maybe I’m biased.

It's not that simple and sadly: "probably" doesn't always work out the way you want it to. For every Dot Cotton puffing away into her 90s, there is someone who dies in their 20s.

Fairly recently: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-56801794 yes, the girl suffered from diagnosed severe asthma. The Coroner gave air pollution as the cause of death. Who knows what would have happened if she was a smoker, but I think we can make an educated guess.

My mum suffered from severe asthma (and hay fever) - enough to have to go to hospital on many occasions. However she never lived in an environment like that girl nor did she really smoke. Oh apart from three years in London and that was back when lead was in petrol. Hmmm.

Anecdotes are not data but I do recommend you avoid fags. Relying on the usual "my gran smoked woodbines until she was 105 and tripped over her old man" is not a particularly clever life choice.

With hindsight I bothered to notice loads of effects that I had glossed over for years.
No, that's not the case at all. Conveyor-belt sushi restaurants are still quite popular.

What's different, however, is that (at least in the ones I've been to over the last year or so) they no longer put food onto the always-running conveyor.

Let me explain: a modern restaurant like "Sushiro" isn't just an old-style conveyor-belt sushi place: pre-pandemic, they had 2 belts. The lower belt just had ready-made sushi and you just grabbed whatever you wanted from the belt. The color of the plate told you (and the server at the end) its price. The upper belt, however, was used for direct-to-table ordering using the tablet computer at your seat. So you could order other things: soups, desserts, fresh sushi because you wanted it fresher than the stuff that's been sitting on the lower conveyor, etc. You'd order what you want on the computer, they'd make it and put it on the upper conveyor, and it would go straight to your seat (with a little "exit ramp" where you can pick it up).

Now, they seem to have completely abandoned the lower conveyor, and you just have to order everything you want with the computer. I think it was going this way anyway (because why take something that's been sitting out when you can order something), and that incident just sped things along.
If you have a spellchecker, code formatter and a linter, code reviews improve significantly. Much better than having to do that work by hand, or reviewing it by hand, leaving code reviews for higher level ideas.
Because if we are to address this problem we have to identify the primary cause.
