Obviously being vocally abused is not OK no matter what the victim has done. This is a big problem and I think Steve's article that is currently on the top page of HN gives a good overview of that part of the situation. My problem with

Which is what the end user did! The maintainer rejected the patch as "boring" despite being given concrete example of how UB could be triggered and how the patch would fix it.

For context, this comes after yet another unsoundness bug has been found in Actix-web. Normally people in the Rust community don't get very worked up over these because we know that everyone makes mistakes, but the Actix project has ha

The Rust code you wrote seems to be extremely heavy on boilerplate. A couple of macros could have drastically reduced the line count. I don't think what Linus wrote in 2004 on C++ has much relevance for 2020 Rust, especially for a new

Isn't that basically Go's whole thing? It has syntax that is really close to C, Go style co-routines (obviously), and I believe it has good JSON support. You do have to use a GC and you lose some of the really low level bits but I

This is correct, but at the time there weren't really any competitors with an app ecosystem. Furthermore, the original iPhone was just a better phone than the dumbphones of the day. The bar is a lot higher in 2019 than it was when the

Do people really get worked up over that kind of telemetry? I know I wouldn't. I would even be OK with much more telemetry around most actions in the game as long as it doesn't snoop on anything outside of what I do in the game.

To you maybe, but not for everyone. I get lots of utility out of my Echo (alarms, music, checking the weather, controlling lights, etc.) that I'm fine with some random Amazon contractor listening to my commands to Alexa. And if you are

The Pixel 4 also has a custom chip just for image processing which other phones do not, so you can't just port the code over to other phones.

Which other countries were much better? Obviously the fact that women and African Americans got the vote so late is not good, but America could still be one of the freest countries in the last 150 years if most everyone else was even worse.

I'm sorry, but a heavy handed spam filter is the absolute last thing I want the government to have. This basically gives the government the best censorship tool they ever had.

One the other hand, Google is so big that it could just ignore demands from smaller countries, especially when they are a small drop on the bucket in terms of revenue. Multiple small, regional companies can't afford to go against the g

How can what the parent did be considered immoral? It's not like they pushed tracking and ads down their customers throats, they just made the interface easier for people to use.

There are quite a few reasons. First of all the recordings made by voice assistants aren't connected to your identity (or at least most people don't expect it to). Uploading it yourself for the world to hear links it to you in the

Why should his desire to not have voice assistants in the house trump his roommate's desire to utilize the technology they paid for and want to use? These are both subjective opinions and neither one is better than the other. However I

Apple lets you run your own applications you just have to right click the program and then select run. A warning will pop up but you can dismiss it and run the app. It's not super intuitive but it isn't hard for power users and no
