You definition of philosophy does not seem to match the broader scientific one. Philosophy is the science of understanding logic. Founded on Aristotles, Plato, and others. Rational process is derived directly from philosophy. An appeal to f

If intent were so simply explained, then the High Courts across the world would serve no function - as interpreting intent is their core role. Material interest and intent only accidentally collide. Intent cannot be defined in that manner.

To avoid harm, you must identify intent. To punish, you must establish intent. Intent has been the core underiding feature of the law since the Magna Carta. To ignore or trivialise it is nothing short of advocating for the return of kings.

Modelling intent, with math, is not going to happy. Law is based around the intent of those taking actions, and understanding intent is absolutely philosophy.

I was pointing out that keystroke injection is already the norm. The exception is banning it for some software. It has been the norm since we first started automating processes designed more for people than automation. It will remain the no

You do know its still healing right? Which is not past tense?

I've always done it in a Scheme. Generally to learn a new compiler and its quirks. Scheme is fairly well suited to both general programming, and abstract math, which tends to be a good fit for AoC.

Is called an automation tool. Like Powershell, or Microsoft Automate or Tosca, who can all run keystroke injection, but aren't flagged.

Not literally above me, no. But considering it affects everyone, its not something to ignore - especially in a region that is already 10% more UV intense than most of the world.

There's a hole in the atmosphere where I live. Incidentally, one of the highest skin cancer occurrences in the world. Calling it overblown, is... A dangerous sentiment. We tore a hole in our atmosphere. This is not the natural way of t

Because I can't help it, and ADO is my pain: Type the same id number into a bug related links twice. It'll have no match, and then a match.

Guile is GNU's extension language, and a Scheme. It is meant for low level programming, like how it is used inside GDB. Or high level, like how it is used in Make or Google's schism. If you want memory limited, then you can turn i

Arc was ported to Common Lisp last year, but before that was Racket. And HN is written in Arc. So does the website you're on count as popular software?

The rewrite started in 2017. Fears about refactoring introducing bugs are fine and valid - but after eight years, haven't really happened. Seems the extensive test suite did its job. This isn't a case of Python 2 v 3. Packages wer

Absolutely. And auth0 was also delivering that, before acquisition. It isn't a change of routine.

By backdoor, I meant the capability to implement one. The OEM looking for greater controls on their platform, would be considered the "data owner", here. There's no real way to prevent that.

This could be: Great for security - Being able to safely compute secrets is a very difficult problem. Fucking awful for security - More OEM secret controls and "analytics" that devolve into backdoors after someone yet again post k

Ads. Beneficial to the user. Most of the time, you need to pick one. Modern advertising is not based on finding the item with the most utility for the user - which means they are aimed at manipulating the user's behaviour in one way or

Nope. It ranges from same to worse. VoiceOver is... Well, it has some AI layers that can sometimes rewrite the text it is reading. So... Think AI subtitles, but interacting with them. JAWS and NVDA are basically Windows-only, because no one

Everything is lacking. Wayland hasn't even stabilised their accessibility hooks, and in the name of privacy have undercut what accessibility tools can see. X server has always had an awful accessibility story. The server can break and

Chicken Scheme compiles to C, using a method that ended up as a maths paper (Cheney on the MTA). Its a valid approach.

A bug in Ubuntu's standard sudo executable is newsworthy. Updates are probably required for a large number of servers.
