>By dodging the draft you are essentially freeloading off of the rest of society who did get drafted.

The problem I have is with selective enforcement of such social contracts.

In case of the conflict, none of the rich or important people and their kids will be on the front line or even take part in the draft, they'll be chilling in US, UK, New Zeeland, Switzerland, Austria, South of Europe, etc, and yet I and every other Joe Schmoe have to go and die or suffer to fulfil my so called "social contract"? They can eat shit.

Go to any fancy town in Europe and it's full of the Russian and Ukrainian elites living the good life while the poor people in their countries suffer. It was the same in WW1. All of the European plebs were dying in the trenches while Monaco hosted the hottest party and gambling scene of the European monarchies and elites. Go visit Monaco and see for yourself the history.

So until I see the rich people dying in the trenches with the poor, the social contract is a scam and I'll do everything in my power to avoid it since that's what the rich and powerful have always done as that's how they've become rich and powerful in the first place, they never followed the herd.

Social contracts are for gullible people to get scammed easier by the ruling class.

Any big tech company with large peak periods disagrees with you. It's absolutely worth freezing non-critical changes.

Urgent business change needs to go through? Sure, be prepared to defend to a vp/exec why it needs to go in now.

Urgent security fix? Yep same vp will approve it.

It's a no-brainer to stop your typical changes which aren't needed for a couple of weeks. By the way, it doesn't mean your whole pipeline needs to stop. You can still have stuff ready to go to prod or pre prod after the freeze

> What I am objecting to is the "another person's" part.

Fair enough. We disagree about definitions here. To me, plagiarizing is claiming authorship of a work that you did not author. Where that work came from is irrelevant to the question.

> If not, whatif you use an LLM to do the translation instead, instructing it to act strictly as a 'translation tool'?

Translation is an entirely different beast, though. A translation is not claiming to be original authorship. It is transparently the opposite of that. Nobody translating a work would claim that they wrote that work.
A lot of authors are commissioned though, basically given a brief of what to write. More often than not in more commercial franchises though, e.g. Marvel, Warhammer, video game adaptations / tie-ins, Minecraft, Manning books, etc.

But that goes into the realm of commercial media, vs "artistic" media where authors can just do whatever they want, and maybe they'll find a publisher and get successful.

Multi-Policy Decision Making (MPDM) vs. Early Commitment in Autonomous Driving
It was pretty easy to do without buying the box if you had a network card you could put into monitor mode. Fun thing was that you only needed one handshake initially, then you could replay it and collect the responses which were each initialized differently.

I've tried the WPA equivalent attack (capture handshake, crack offline...) against targets with physical security that extended beyond their wifi. It was a bit arduous and fiddly and expensive and risky. If I could've compromised a neighbor and gotten the handshakes without traveling for them I'd definitely have preferred that option.
> You cannot pronounce the name regardless of whether it is written in ASCII. Pronouncing a name requires at the very least knowledge of the language it originated in, and attempts at reading it with an English pronunciation can range from incomprehensible to outright offensive.

Offensive if you WANT to be offended perhaps but definitely understandable, which is the main thing that matters.

> The tenet "accept interfaces, return structs" is violated all over by returning the `error` interface.

To be fair, that expression came from a blogger who often wrote about Go. It is not a tenet held by the Go project. In fact, Rob Pike has made clear that he considers it to be misguided advice. It is only violated in the same way returning Result in Rust violates the assertion I made up for this comment: Do not return Result.
It's "shit" to you. To its creators, it's an awesome piece of software that does exactly what they wanted it to do and is as simple as they wanted it to be. They liked it enough that they thought it was worth sharing here. Maybe they don't need or care about extended attributes, and that's fine.

If you want people to work on things they don't care about, you should consider hiring them or sponsoring their work. Either way, remember to thank them for their generosity. They did give you the source code and the freedom to use and modify it, after all. Copyright law says people are entitled to neither.

If you won't pay them to get them to work on the features you want, it's entirely within your power to do it yourself. That freedom is not the default, it is a privilege that is given. People should be thankful for it.

Even if the code sucked, you have the freedom to read it and learn from its mistakes and see what it does so you can make a better version. And the world is richer and wealthier because of it.

How would you have redesigned the 8086 to do this? And why, other than because of some aesthetic objection to overlapping segments?

The 286 and 386 in protected mode did allow segments with any base address (24 or 32 bits), so your argument about extending the address space doesn't make sense.

I've been on a Japanese literature kick for a while now.

For me the characters are the main difference from American literature. The article mentions this briefly, but I find that in the novels I've read (admittedly translated), Japanese novel characters have much more depth. They're flawed people often with selfish motivations, and it's much more reflective of real life.

Plot structure is very different as well with most of these novels not having a true setting > rising action > climax > falling action style plot like American literature tends to have. The books often just end without much resolution at all.

Probably the biggest reason I've been reading them though is that I'm just tired of "young adult" books that have so much popularity here in America. It's like a tag you can throw on to shield your bad writing. It feels like everything popular here is written with 6th grade grammar. Maybe this phenomenon exists in Japan too, but we have the filter that translation provides. Presumably most translated novels are at least somewhat successful and well written, or else they wouldn't have been translated.

For reference, of the translated fiction I've read, I'd recommend -

It also isn't a matter of hygiene or cows being organically fed. Microorganisms like Salmonella can be present in Milk and a lot of factors influence their presence, amount and procreation rate and some of these are more or less pure chance.

A healthy human might not get too many problems, but children or a weakened immune system can have far reaching consequences that includes death. Raw milk/cream certainly is different than the usual supermarket version, but for food safety the laws are just damn sensible. So sensible that most countries implemented them without question.
you mean WWII? If so, this is just wrong, no-one in Finland "voted" to join the Axis, she was not technically a part of Axis and didn't want to side with Germany at all. GB and Sweden were first asked but they weren't able to help in the defence from Soviet Union. AFAIK they weren't fighting anywhere but their own territory

re the mention of FVEY, I strongly suspect it's law enforcement rather than the spooks who have any issue with encryption there. I don't think FVEY SIGINT are having any issue reading the messages they want to read, it's the City of Spokane Police Department, FBI Tampa, and the Manitoba RCMP who are struggling, and would like Apple to give them decryption keys. SIGINT would love you to believe they can't read your messages because of encryption.

Absent a need for asynchronous, independent access from multiple external web clients, I don't get why the author would want to do this. Isn't marshaling/unmarshaling always major infra overhead?

Renaming didnt drastically reduce inflation. If it were that easy everybody would do it. It just allowed the government to reduce inflationary expectations while they did the legwork of throttling spending, etc.

If they hadnt done the legwork to reduce inflationary pressures this parlor trick would not have worked.

And, arguably, if they hadnt done it at all, inflation would still have gone down simply by reducing the inflationary pressures.

I think the 'pedantry' is actually trying to push back against the politics and whatnot, in a way.

As others have noted, 'recall' brings to mind physically returning an item. I have, repeatedly, had to clarify to people that it was actually an OTA software update, which - to most people - is a lot less significant than the idea of having to return your car several times a year.

We'll be able to measure how much support for something like that he can get. Also, we can easily see Canada and Mexico retaliating against American goods with similar tariffs.

In any case, this is meant to stir up his supporters. If the Legislative blocks him, he still wins by becoming the victim of a "legislative power grab".

They say that, but what if the opposite was the actual truth?

Look every VC is "founder friendly" because without founders there's no deal flow. At the end of the day though every VC is optimizing for exit value.

So it makes sense to bet on the same idea twice. If Founder A screws the pooch, you've still got Founder B.
I wonder if it would be possible for e.g. asteroid material to work as an indirect source of nutrition? I.e. carry a specialized yeast on board that can "eat" the asteroid, and, sort of like sourdough, use the yeast's excess growth as food for humans... Sounds nasty now that I say it out loud haha.

The C++ community can deal with it, I’m not part of it because I’ve been hearing stuff like this for a loooong time from both sides. I’m sure there’s a lot of truth to it. But in my experience either these situations get fixed early or they fester until a huge explosions (like metoo). Either way, all the drama is a far cry from the things I’m interested in - memory safety. If you can’t talk about that without wading through a sludge of toxic personalities, time is better spent elsewhere.

The JeanHeyd Meneide saga really says it all about what’s wrong with the C++ community. I would say their blog post is far more enlightening and avoids all the accusations and combative tone of the linked piece while still making clear what the problem is. And it’s technically enlightening to boot.
Likewise, Japanese media was affected massively by WW2 and the nukes hitting Hiroshima / Nagasaki; think Godzilla as the most famous one, starting as an anti-nuclear message - although in recent iterations, Godzilla is a protector against similar monsters.

WW2 had a similar impact on both the US media - as heroes, liberators, etc - and European media - often more historical in nature.

Why do Tesla people see servitization and paying for something in perpetuity forever as being such an enabling thing for people? We need to own the things we pay for, not rent them. In a decentralized way. A car is a machine that needs to be capable of functioning completely independent of everything else. There is no reason it should be a PaaS other than to extract as much value out of the market as possible.

Companies need to leave some value for regular people to live.
Sure, okay, but we can add that variance to the simulated load if it turns out to be meaningful for the system under test.

The 68000 was a high-end product, the 8088 was a lot cheaper, in a big part because of those design decisions, like having a 16 bit memory bus.
