That’s a bit much. They were compelled by the U.S. government to deny handing over data. Sure it’s technically a lie, in the same that a General stating they “neither confirm or deny X” is also likely a lie.

But it’s entirely unreasonable to judge Apple for following the legal, and mandated instructions issued by the democratically elected government of the nation they operate within. Are you honestly suggesting that companies like Apple should be expected to simply ignore the law when you think it’s convenient?

It is an excellent defense, because similar logic is often resisted when it comes to regulating lifestyle and food consumption - even though complications from obesity impose a much greater, and growing, financial burden on public healthcare systems.

It's technically not part Linux's headers either. It's published under the tools subdirectory, so it's something that ships along with the kernel, but not used by the kernel itself. Basically it's there as some people might find it useful, but could've as well been a separate repo.

For instance, they made protecting women’s rights a big part of their campaign when most states already had on their ballot laws to protect women’s rights in their constitution. Or they had previously passed laws since roe v wade was overturned.

This shows an example of what can happen when you perform a basic resizing of faces. You will notice the distortion when this library is not used. When I had to resize 40,0000 photos, I noticed better visual outcomes when using this library for my testing set of photos.

Just a friendly reminder that syscall() is a vararg function. Meaning, you can't just go throwing arguments at it (so maybe it's better to use this wrapper to avoid problems instead).

For example, on a 64-bit arch, this code would be sus.

syscall(__NR_syscall_taking_6_args, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6);

Quiz: why

PS: it's a common mistake, so I thought I'd save you a trip down the debugging rabbit hole.
> I do worry about the implementation

The government does not own the implementation.

As mentioned in another comment, simply making this illegal would create a significant incentive for soc media companies to implement the solution.

The onus is on them to respect the law.

They've been slapped in the face in EU court enough now that they'd think about it seriously.
IIRC that was specifically on macOS and other BSDs which don't have a stable syscall interface. They still use raw syscalls on Linux, which guarantees syscall stability on pain of Linus Torvalds yelling at you if you break it.

> The most common perception of gladiatorial games is that they were violent and gruesome because someone always died,” says archaeologist R. R. R. Smith of the University of Oxford, who directs excavations at the site of Aphrodisias. “This isn’t true. In gladiatorial games, most of the time, both participants left the arena on their feet. The games weren’t about killing, but about the excitement of two men fighting, about showcasing skill, discipline, endurance, strength, tactics, and different weapons.” In the rare cases when gladiators were killed or condemned to death, they had been trained to die theatrically to add to the performance’s impact.
The old skeuomorphism used analog analogies. I like that this demo uses older computing technology.

Generally I think the time is right for a reversion to richer textured interfaces. GUIs are pretty pointless for 90% of the desktop software I use, but if you’re not going to do the decent thing and give me a good textual interface, at least give me some eye candy instead of these stale, dreary flat interfaces.
> It's about protecting your health and reducing the burden on the public health system.

So is controlling what and how much people can eat to prevent or reduce obesity.

From now on, you are only allowed to eat broccoli (I actually love broccoli) to ensure you will not be a burden on the public health system.
Now I see the problem: migrating from an ERP to a spreadsheet in one month would be a hell. But with a longer timeframe, I think it would be possible to migrate to a proper ERP without missing key functionalities.
Because namedtuple is a simpler construct than frozen dataclass therefore it is always preferable in Python.

The number of characters and lines to access the members of namedtuple is significantly less than dataclass.

dataclass would have similar issues if st_dev was now defined as a string whereas namedtuple would not.

Whilst there maybe edge cases in using simpler constructs, in scripting languages we accept the edge cases as it pays off in 99.99% of cases to simply ignore them. If something goes wrong, you catch the exception "Ask for forgiveness not for permission" if you want to look up the concept.

Money and fame usually destroys the platform in the end, as it aims for endless competition and rule breaking.

People (especially product managers) want to forget that there should be a spec somewhere and there’s a cost associated to the changes because you’re breaking contracts (updating relations between entities) and modifying execution flows (rewriting use cases). If you are making a monorepo, you should also have a single document specifying the whole project because of the tight coupling between services.
Yes, we needed to solve the problem for our other product (https://kili.so). We spent a lot of time getting accuracy up for dense and multi-page invoices. Then realised other teams have this need as well so decided to ship the API.

On the accuracy point, given our work so far we believe we are best in class in terms of accuracy for document extraction. We've also set up a system of evaluations internally that allow us to keep iterating and improving (hence us mentioning that we want to continue working on it).
Nursing requires a lot more physical strength than a lot of newer jobs - any office job, most shop work etc. Nurses need to move people tc.

I would say that nursing is a good example of a female dominated job that ought to have more men in it, as greater strength is a huge advantage when, for example, moving/positioning someone.

(The initial version of this comment missed the point of your question; sorry.) The author says:

> We also store pairs as the pair type (Key-Value), instead of two separate values. This makes easy to serialize a dictionary into a list of pairs, which are sortable using the builtin keysort/2.

`Key, Value` is two values, not one. I suspect something like `kv(Key, Value)` would work as well.

By the way, I disagree that the refactored version doesn't cut; `-> ;` is syntactic sugar over a cut.

My point is that releasing weekly because your testing is good enough is not possible. It might be an acceptable compromise for your problem, but there are others who that isn't enough.

I work on software that is safety critical, as such we require all releases to go through several weeks of manual testing - this is after a very large automated test suite. Realistically it is months of manual testing, but if programmers were perfect it could be done in weeks.
The fact that the Switch 1 SoC is so outdated now is the main reason the console is replaced with a Switch 2. E.g. there a fewer and fewer cross-platform releases that come to the Switch. So having an outdated SoC means shaving of years of the console's potential life span.
Steam reviews are becoming a pathological game for developers and players alike.

At 8000 hours played, this guy should have the privilege of posting a review which is both more visible and less weighted in terms of good/bad. After a certain amount of engagement, you're implicitly thumbs upping a game. However, players with that level of commitment and sunk time feel disempowered when a game changes to betrays their expectations. They should just have a different kind of review that at the same time as it takes away their ability to thumbs down the title, it gives their thoughts visibility to the developers and community.

> "Schuldenbremse". "Debt"+"brake", brake as in what forces a car to stop.

No. Schuldenbremse limits the amount of new debt that can be taken on per year. So the correct comparison is that it's a limit on how quickly the car can accelerate.

> Let's assume your important car breaks down because of a strange, non-technical reason, which isn't covered by any insurance. If you don't have enough money, you will have to borrow some, you will have to go into debt, unless you are able to reduce your expenses otherwise.

Again, no. Your example describes a one-time expense, and the German Schuldenbremse has exemptions for that. Increased military spending is a running expense, and if the energy price problem is to be solved through subsidies, that's also a running expense.

Germany has been gutting the military and breaking their obligations toward NATO for decades, believing that the US would forever be footing the bill. With that "peace" dividend – or rather, through their parasitic behaviour – they funded generous social programs. They can keep funding all of this by increasing debt (again: not a one-time increase, but debt increasing every year), like Argentina did. Or they can admit they have a structural problem and act in a fiscally responsible way, like Lindner was advocating for.
One gets the feeling HTML in general is underused, since everything has been done in JavaScript for... How long now, at least over a decade?

That’s an interesting perspective—thanks for sharing it! My thought was that having celebrities and influencers could help generate revenue in some way.
There is no sane discussion to be had around the "stolen generation" (I don't believe it was white, they were black) due to the mass misinformation that exists, the situation is muddy and complex where the facts simply don't meet reality.
> They can afford to resist legal demands from countries they don't respect because they have nothing to lose from denying them access.

> Apple has not demonstrated that they have the willingness to resist this unlawful coercion, even recently.

These two statements are rather contradictory. A state is perfectly allowed to write and enforce any laws it deems fit, and if companies want to operate within those states, they need to follow those laws.

You also make it sound like companies like Apple are part of PRISM because they want to be, rather than being forced/coerced into participating. Do you honestly believe that Apple has more geopolitical power than the US state? Entire nations have been humbled by the U.S. state, do you honestly believe that a private enterprise is capable to withstanding that kind of pressure, while also remaining within the law?

PRISM as a whole may have eventually been determined to be unlawful, but that was only after-the-fact, and only because U.S. state secrets were leaked. How is an organisation like Apple supposed to prove that the requests they received were unlawful, when entirely legal apparatus was used to essentially make it illegal to challenge the orders themselves. It’s a perfect catch-22. To resolve this issue you’re demanding that Apple knowingly breaks the law sometimes, and that individuals within Apple should risk their own freedom and liberties for your convenience.
Show HN: Regrets.io – The Regrets Database
Yoooo HN,

I'm Lucas Schiavini and I built Regrets.io, a platform to share regrets and to let your inner curious child endlessly look for pros in cons in everything. It's supposed to be simple and scrollable and a place for you to research anything you want and get easy pros and cons.

So why not just use reddit? I've been on endless reddit threads on posts to gather all the info I needed to buy my legion go, my remarkable tablet, my new macbook, and I'd really love to find all their info under one page, extra points if an ai can summarize the pros and cons from the user answers(regrets.io feature coming soon!!).

I made it much harder to create similar regrets like "going to college" and "going to university". It's still not perfect and the duplication is still possible if you try hard enough but those things are being fixed.

As of right now you can type in anonymous responses without an account and if you want a bit more features you can login and still leave anonymous responses if you choose to.

This is a project I built after I heard the idea on one of the my first million pods(thanks shaan) and I felt it was very interesting. I'm looking forward to build more features to help people move past their regrets and to overcome difficulties in their lives. I want people to feel like heros and like mentors on this website.

I'm posting here to gather feedback and if this resonates with you or you're curious I'd love your feedback, ideas, and honest impressions.

[Check it out here](https://regrets.io), and let’s see if our shared experiences can help us all make better choices moving forward.
I would use discourse to build it. The feature set is incredible.

I would make it community / area of interest centric (like Reddit).

Attract deep subject matter experts for the categories.

I actually own some domains that could be perfect for this site….

Trump will likely make it better by making the gas price hold at below $3 per gallon like it was for nearly all of his Presidency. This will reduce the price of food.
Functionally yes, the plan is in the parent's name. But at least where I'm from, you already have plans that are geared at kids, e.g. they have limits on how big their bill can be so they don't blow it up, certain services are turned off for them such as pay-per-minute calls, and so forth. Perhaps to put a different way, the carriers might not have this info right now, but it would be straightforward to implement this limit this way. Any other approach that I can think of would be both more technical work and also a bigger breach of privacy.
Got it in one. The only “changes” thus far have been slight alterations to the status quo to preserve it just a bit longer, to tamp down discontent ever so slightly so the boat doesn’t capsize. The Affordable Care Act was meant to appease the masses after bailing out the financial sector’s gambling problem, while unchecked stimulus payments were intended to appease the masses during COVID, knowing full well it would drive inflation as it was siphoned from the masses into the pockets of the wealthy. Here, too, the masses will be given a bone of sorts to appease them when their civil liberties are run roughshod or eliminated altogether, likely in the form of some financial stimulus for housing that just ends up in the hands of the wealthy again anyway.

The real underlying problem the United States faces is the reckoning of the American Dream against reality. It’s not possible for everyone to be a billionaire, to have a huge home on a large plot of land, to drive luxury SUVs and rent out a second home for passive income. Yet as long as Americans (and people in general) still believe that dream really is attainable, if they just pull themselves up by their bootstraps and work longer hours and take more risks, then the status quo will merely continue to crumble at its foundation until a sudden and violent collapse of the structure occurs.

- Are the photons themselves carrying quantum information?

- Does the photon link result in entangled particles in Delft and Den Haag?

- Can these entangled particles be used for communication without the optical link?

Also, I tried looking this stuff up and ran into something about quantum "repeaters" and a plans for a whole quantum network. Is this research part of working towards that? How far are we now, and what steps are still missing? Thanks!

Edit: Looks like you guys built a multi-node quantum network 2 years ago! I will have to do some more reading.

> What if the kid is telling you they'll suicide at the age of 8? The problem with your logic is that there is no line.

Who says there is no line? All I said was that I disagreed with your line being 18 of age. I do understand your concern, really. I am just saying that maybe, just maybe, it is more complicated than what you think from your position where you are apparently not confronted to it. You call it "protecting kids", but what you want is to enforce whatever makes you feel good from your detached position (which in this case is "wait until 18"). What if a 16 years old told you that you are abusive by preventing them from doing it? Would you say "shut up, you're not 18 you don't know if I'm abusing you or not"? I'm sure you believe that "it's better than nothing, if we don't know let's put the line at 18". But that's all it is: a belief. And what I believe is that it is actually hard to know what's best.

> Transitioning a kid doesn't solve the suicide problem. Many of them go on to commit suicide at even higher rates than other groups of people.

Again, what you say here has a logic problem. Do you have actual numbers that say "it's overall better for those kids when we don't transition them than when we do"? What you say here is "well it does not prevent all problems, so it sucks", but you ignore that your solution (waiting until 18) would not solve all problems either.

That's my whole point: you don't know (I don't know either), and it is a hard problem. You are just projecting your uninformed ideas to justify why you voted for Trump. I don't care what Trump or the democrats claim: what I would want for those kids is actual studies to try to understand what's best for them (and it probably exists). And really, everybody wants to protect kids. Because you disagree with what others do does not mean at all that they try to hurt kids.
