No. The complaint is that Google is redirecting the content to servers that they control.

So that system administrators know they misconfigured it, rather than having it silently do the wrong thing.

I'd prefer if it was done with the federal marshals, or some other civilian organization. Something like the way that Ruby Bridges was escorted to school during desegregation.

Bringing the military in on stopping it is crossing the Rubicon. In as literal a sense as you can get without living in Italy. Regardless of feelings on the current situation, the idea of getting the military involved should be extremely un

I'd rather not run a linux VM for this, so yes. It should be possible to isolate it to /opt/github-linter/* on my BSD machines, or put into a nix package. (Also, I guess this is one more reason that docker is a big red f

They've already decided to do this, they just carved out an exception for when it's a politician lying. Read their terms of service.

by ori_b 6y ago
That's blatantly false. Try posting porn, or lies in ads about non-political topics. Political ads are the only thing that gets a pass.

by ori_b 6y ago
This misses the point hard. The problem is people who don't realize they're being lied to.

Does any language save you from explicitly screwing up error handling? Gorm is doing the Go equivalent of: class Query { class QueryResult { Exception error; Value result; } public

Or .unwrap(), which I see relatively often.

And what adjustment should you do when it makes a request to, for example, ` https://mms.cnn.com/aaldXQhJ0VycCFqfnQhcGp1fkojSDwxbG5ueiJ5I... `?

Yes. But if you go that way, though, sqlite is just a slow and clunky format compared to, eg, json or protobuf. I doubt that any program out there uses sqlite this way, other than those which realize they painted themselves into a performan

Because you've got another operation triggered by a UI action, and you need the previous one to finish, for example.

I made a mistake -- it's an order of magnitude slower. That means a single transaction is within the threshold for human perception. If you block the UI thread on a transaction, you're now dropping 6 frames at 60fps. If you block
