> Algorithmically, this is an interesting problem but it should be quite solvable. Just, for some reason, nobody has worked on this yet. So, thanks for writing this post and bringing more attention to this problem!

I'm skeptical that an algorithmic solution will be possible, but I can see this being handled in a UX layer built on top. For example, a client could detect that there's been a conflict based on the editing traces, and show a conflict resolution dialog that makes a new edit based on the resolution. The tricky part is marking a conflict as resolved. I suspect it could be as simple as adding a field to the crdt, but maybe then it counts as an algorithmic solution?

Yeah, luckily I don't live in the US where you get a crazy billionaire to fund a certified madman into office, both clearly for money and power reasons that have nothing to do with 'the people' and then let that be valid. No thanks.

Yes, I think we agree!
I disagree. Even support staff should be able to say "oh wow, this is really bad, let me get my supervisor", who would then recursively escalate until they get to someone who can open the correct ticket.
You seem to be using the term "fascist" to mean the same thing as "authoritarian"/"totalitarian"/"tyrannical"/"dictatorial"/"oppressive"/etc.

If you use the word in that way, then the Soviet Union was a fascist state.

But, to someone in the period between the World Wars, that would have seemed nonsensical – the Stalinists and fascists were at war with each other, on the streets of Italy and Germany, in the trenches of the Spanish Civil War. Both may well have been evil but only one was fascist.

Because there's another sense of "fascism", in which it refers to a specific type of authoritarianism/oppression/dictatorship/tyranny/etc devised by Mussolini and his associates, as opposed to just authoritarianism/oppression/dictatorship/tyranny in general. And in that sense, whether anything non-Italian counts as "fascism" is going to depend on which elements it has in common with the Italian archetype, and how significant you think each of those elements are.

Generally speaking, people will take the path of least resistance and even moreso if they're professionals who probably aren't paid enough to care enough. Beancounters also won't care beyond the numbers in their spreadsheets.

Even if OP finishes and decides not work in tech/IT for the rest of the life, having a CS background is VERY solid background for a looooot of jobs. Also, usually you get a good payment.

Ok, but that doesn't answer my question: what specific problem are you worried about that would allow someone to steal your money, that isn't incomparably unlikely compared to other methods? I'm just not aware of any problem that has happened in practice from poorly written card reader software.
The new generation thinks your job should be fun and interesting, but that's rare and a luxury. I see young coworkers leave an excellent job after months, often less than 6 months even. It used to be that I would not even interview candidates who had less than 2 years in any job on their resume - it was the industry's standard. Now it's rare to find somebody who has had 2 years in any job - this is beyond pathetic! Entrepreneurship is different than self-experimentation. If you have a killer idea, if you've done the market analysis, and the business plan - ok, great - quit your job! But to leave a decent job to play entrepreneur - that's pretty irresponsible! Stoicism is extinct!
Fixed the title:

Woman takes extended vacation with kids on ex-husbands child support payments.

(Yes, that really is what this article is about, taking that many kids away from their father pays out A LOT of cash since they get paid by the number).

Article says, "after a recent divorce..." so she takes his kids and goes on a long vacation while dad works? How and why are these acts of extreme selfishness so praised?

But the same Constitutional Court already validated the election results one week ago. It was published in Monitorul Oficial (official publication of new laws and regulations, etc., closest equivalent to US Federal Register). At that time, The Supreme Council of National Defence had access to the documents. They read them and did nothing.

> If the law was broken, then it must be investigated

Yes, of course.

> and the tainted election must be re-run

No, not at all. First because there is no law that even mentions this possibility - courts should not get to invent rules and regulations.

Secondly because there is no time to take correct decisions of this nature during the short election cycle, and ensure that evidence is properly gathered, rights are respected, and so on. The standard of evidence used to take this decision is barely good enough to charge someone.
> By this same logic, you are responsible for the death of every person who could have been saved by you donating (...)

A healthcare provider makes a very important but simple offer: you pay us,and in exchange you grant you access to the medical treatments you need when you need it. They commit to provide that service.

If you meet your end of the deal without any flaw and, in the very moment you need them to comply with their own offer, they deny you the service they promised you that you would have, do you agree the are responsible for you not having access to that treatment?

Let's put it another way. Let's say you want to travel to some other place in your town to attend a meeting. You look up a taxi company advertisement, and you call them to arrange a ride. They say sure, you just need to pay us and you'll be taken from point A to B. You arrange your payment and wait for the cab. The cab arrives, but the driver tells you "well, I was looking at the travel plan and I decided I don't feel like driving you there", and drives off with your money. Is that taxi company responsible for you failing to attend the meeting?

I'm in network security and I want to quit so badly. I feel trapped in a job and team dynamic I don't like. I own my truck and have $275k in liquid assets.

I've been thinking of quitting with the assumption that my job skills will still be relevant in two or three years and that I have strong social skills that help stand out and a crowded worker field.

I just want to take care of some long-standing tasks, clean out my house, and enjoy waking up each day.
Assassinations have been a thing for thousands of years and a lot more people were a lot more angry for long stretches of history. Trump alone faced two attempts this year (one almost got him, and killed a bystander). Shinzo Abe was gunned down by a rando two years ago. WWI was started by one, same goes for many other wars. Not sure why you think this is anything new.

Good one but these theorems are useful to have when thinking about information processing systems and whatever promises the hype artists are making about the latest and greatest iteration of neural networks.

Not so tough; I would not personally not consider a pencil pusher that causes, indirectly but he knew what he was doing, 100k-1m of deaths and suffering, a human at all. People defend him by saying he was just an accountant; you can say that for a lot of unsavory people throughout history.

But I am against insurance as a business at all; it is by design perverse: you want to deny claims, how is or can it be ever good for the client? Where I live, healthcare insurers are not allowed to deny claims, but other insurers can; I always take them to court if they do, even for a few 100 euros. These 'humans' have no right to screw over innocent people without recourse; it's simply stealing and in the case of health or disability it is torture or murder; they need to be held accountable, including the ceo and not just money fines (slap on wrists they are insured for!); prison time. If you deny cancer treatment and it turns out the claim was valid and you had ai decide or someone (or multiple people) knew it was valid but still declined it, that's prison time for negligence, theft and possibly murder (with intent as you knew the outcome and did it anyway); in any other scenario it would be anyway.
Some disincentives to have kids, if you grew up in the 21st century:

- The cost (financial, time, stress/health) is incredibly high. When cost of living as one person increases somewhere between notably and substantially faster than wages, it’s hard to justify paying for another person while likely also taking an income cut. You end up with entire classes of people whose careers will struggle to pay for their own life, let alone that of a kid. This is playing out in real time - I personally know people who commute 30-45 minutes by car to make $23/hour (in Canada, in a moderately high CoL city - that’s $16USD). When I was in university, some of my classmates who worked at the Starbucks near campus had coworkers (there were at least two instances of this that I know of) in their 40s with kids who commuted over an hour to make however much money Starbucks managers make, and one had a second job on weekends. It’s not hard to look at that and think, “how is that something you’d want to do to yourself?”
- The feeling (perceived or real) that the world is becoming a worse place. 24 hour news and social media don’t help, with either the perception or the actual situation. Why would I want to raise a kid who could be a victim of one of the weekly school shootings? Or who’s going to be left dealing with an even harder life financially/etc? Or who’s going to resent older generations for selfishly wasting the earth’s resources?

It’s generally quite easy when you work in tech with a partner who works in tech to just assume that having kids is an easy choice (I work with people who are like that, who apparently only see the world through rose-tinted glasses, and are shocked someone could even possibly not want to pop out as many babies as possible). But when you look at the level of struggle a significant portion of the population endures, as they become generally more educated and more capable of critical thinking over time, it’s pretty clear why large swaths of people will start thinking “maybe we shouldn’t have kids just for the sake of having kids, especially if we don’t actually want to.”

That’s ignoring of course the general overpopulation and lack of sustainability of the western lifestyle (and the associated impact of having a kid on climate change - pretty much the single worst thing you could do, if you can about that at all). People who are tuned in to those sorts of issues are also more likely to not want kids, either because they don’t want to contribute to the problem, or raise kids who will have to deal with the fallout.

If you’re driven crazy by people having a different viewpoint from your own, you may want to consider reflecting on why you are so deeply entrenched in your beliefs. It is rarely productive.

Why? The reply would have been the same if I quoted the whole «superficially counterintuitive to people that [...]» (instead of just pointing to the original).

> proceeded with a non superficial comment

Well, hopefully ;)

Your post went into the right direction of leading towards the idea that "there is intuition, and there is mature thought further from that: and processors must not stop at intuition, immature thought".

(Stochastic output falls in said category of "intuition"... As "bad intuition", since it goes in the wrong direction in the vector "naive to sophisticated".)
You need to be very, very careful about posting this, depending on your jurisdiction - in most western countries this disclosure is illegal, and you can be criminally prosecuted for providing information about accessing personal information, and you are also admitting that you knowingly accessed the personal information of other customers - in fact, airline passengers, who there are additional privacy laws for.

What you’ve done here is a criminal act according to the CFAA, and your exploration of their site could also be construed as wire fraud. As you’ve done this across state lines this is also a federal felony. You’re also in violation of the GLBA, as you’re disclosing the availability of airline customer information. You could also fall foul of the FTC and the wiretap act.

I have seen people (Weev, Michael Brown, numerous others) go to prison for similar, and this lot could win you years in a federal penitentiary.

Please, consider the legal consequences this could bring upon you.

I would simply forget about it and promptly delete this - it’s their problem, not yours, and by posting about it here, they could decide to make it your problem.

He would not be my choice for candidate, but if the entire claim is that he won because of TikTok (and not because of voter suppression or ballot stuffing) then overturning the election was a complete fuckup. If polling showed that much less support then the poling did not take into account how modern voters act.

I should stress that I disagree with everything he stands for, but if democracy is to mean something we have to accept that what people freely choose to vote for is who wins.

> It's actually that life is too good for childless people

I'm not going to idly sit by and let people who have children take my hard earned money from me. If you think increasing taxes on those without children won't cause a massive retaliation by the men who are not able to find female mates to have children with, you are in for a massive surprise.
The laws regulating campaigns have specific penalties outlined for those that disobey them. Election authorities have broad authority to enforce those laws unilaterally during the campaign, without even getting the courts involved, such as having ads taken down immediately, fining those that didn't follow labeling requirements, and so on. People can be charged and convicted for disobeying these laws, through the regular court system.

There is also a law for how the vote results are to be tallied, when they can be recounted, and in what conditions the recount can lead to a do-over of the election (specifically, the law says that only if widespread fraud of a nature that could have changed the order of candidates). The law also mentions when this do-over would take place (the second next Sunday after the decision is taken, which must be within two weeks of the suspect vote itself).

However, no law in Romania stipulates that an election is to be entirely canceled, from the beginning steps of candidate registration before their campaigns, if one candidate disobeyed campaign finance laws and/or electoral ad labeling laws and no one caught them in time.
I absolutely love Postgres, but please allow me to say that you absolutely don't want to expose an API generated from a database to people outside of your team. This limits you a lot in changing the way you store your data.

Very personal feeling, but without a datalake organized the way Foundry is organized, I don’t see how you can manage [cold] data at scale in a company [both in term of size, flexibility, semantics or R&D]. Given the fact that IT services in big companies WILL fail to build and maintain such a horribly complex stack, the walled garden nature of the Foundry stack is not so stupid.

But all that is the technical part of things. Markets do not bless products. They bless revenues. And from that perspective, I have NO CLUE.
And yet I prefer now to early big bang era of the universe, though technically reversible.
