I agree with your point, and I don't consider RCE a disposition. Still, the average application has about two office actions (CTFR, CTNF, CTRS, CTEQ) before an allowance or abandonment.

I am away from my laptop for the time being, unfortunately. But it's generally a bit of pointer acceleration and enabling two finger scrolling, if I have to configure anything at all.

I was surprised by this, but at least as early as September 2008: https://github.com/whatwg/html/commit/c67bb312ac44737c6c175b...

Color me stunned that people are so dissatisfied with their touchpads in Linux. 0-3 lines of options in my config have made me perfectly content with every touchpad I've ever used in Linux.

Edit: new guidance is from 2019 so my comment is not relevant, but we haven't had a chance to analyze much published data from this period anyway

Applications average about 2 office actions to disposition, so some back-and-forth is implicit

Is all of that really easier to understand than exponential notation? It's a great tool to visualize floating point precision, but it's lot more circuitious to get to an understanding of what a floating point number actually means IMO

I run it, along with other sketchy garbage proprietary software for wook, in a QEMU VM. Or I just dial in and let people suffer through me being on a phone connection owing to their choice of software.

Agreed. I find the whole experience to be horrible. Especially having to install some garbage executable rather than using my browser. It does nothing for me that Google Meet doesn't do better.

Google with bad quality? Meet is working fantastically for me and my coworkers and hasn't been affected at all by the pandemic.

I mean, so do all the major WebRTC video chat programs. Google Meet is absolutely painless, and I can use it in the browser instead of downloading Zoom's very sketchy application.

I'm with you. I have no idea what people like about it that isn't already done better in e.g. Google Meet. Having to download a program is also really crappy IMO. Plenty of other video chat applications work in my browser.

At very least, the EDTX circus was shut down, and I believe plaintiffs must now file in the district where the defendant is headquartered. [1]

I think you're making a decent point, honestly. I live in a close-in suburb of a midwestern city and I think quite a few of the trucks in my neighborhood are probably 99% unnecessary from a utility standpoint. Having a reasonably sized pickup truck is a godsend for me right now, as I'm renovating our house and landscaping the yard. But frankly, since I work remotely, I really want this truck to be the last vehicle I ever purchase for myself (wife still commutes), and ideally we'll be a one-car household in the next 5 years.

Yeah I feel like they are almost certainly putting this design out to create some buzz. I can't picture them releasing this hideous thing as-is.

Better utility than a truck? Excuse me? 6.5' bed and you can't even reach over the sides to get stuff. No stake pockets or any apparent affordance for installation of racks in the bed either. However, I am a fan of a factory tonneau cover and what looks like a built-in ramp in the tailgate.

But there's no avoiding that the thing is just ugly as can be.

Frankly I'm just waiting for an all-electric replacement for the bigger Tacoma / smaller F150 niche. I don't want or need an 80s stainless steel wedge that can tow a 747. Rivian doesn't appear to be interested in that segment. Toyota isn't going to do it until 2025 at best. I was hoping Tesla might, but I'm not surprised that their first foray barely qualifies as a truck.

Interesting results e.g. on Ruby. I did give the javascript test file a whirl and was able to run it just fine with a nesting level of 1,000,000, so I wonder if something else is happening there.

I'll be honest: I didn't notice anything had changed until I read tweets complaining about it. The changes are minuscule.

Juristat | Frontend & Full-stack JS developers | Saint Louis, Kansas City | Remote/Onsite

Juristat is a legal analytics startup based in Saint Louis. We build intelligence products for patent attorneys and applicants.

We are currently looking for an experienced front-end developer with familiarity around modern front-end JS frameworks (Angular, React, ...), and an experienced full-stack JS developer comfortable with ES6/7, Node.js, Express, and so on.

Our engineering team is currently 5 developers, of which 4 are onsite in Saint Louis. We have a very laid back, autonomous work culture, and we provide lots of flexibility and support in terms of using the best tech and tools for the task at hand. We are on AWS and use JS almost entirely, but we never exclude other languages or tech if it's right for the job.

As for our interview process, it generally starts with looking at your code, then a video chat "phone screen" (if not in Saint Louis), and then an on-site interview to meet the team, see the office, and get to know you better. We'll make the final decision after all candidates have finished that process.

If you're interested, check out our careers page at https://www.juristat.com/careers/ or send resume, cover letter, code samples / Github, etc to jobs@juristat.com

Why not Linux?

There are absolutely "bump-in-the-wire" intrusion prevention systems with MITM capability.

It's already in use, in fact.

I like your proposed (user-visible) solution quite a lot, this would be great.

I predict certain folks would respond to this by trapping themselves in the indefensible position of "but if they know we're intercepting them, how will we catch them being bad?!?!"

Kinda begging the question aren't we? I turn to nosql for things that aren't key-value, generally.

I've always seen it as a pithy kind of humor, which it seems most other people either miss or disagree with.

"I could care less! (Yet here we are discussing it to death.)" or "They could care less... (less than we do / less than all this discussion suggests they might care)"

^ I think that's essentially how most people use it, mechanically, without thinking about it as much.

When I say it, I usually either mean it that way, or something along the lines of "I could care less! (And I wish I did!)"

It's interesting and sad that this is the way it is. I'd get way more benefit from another core than another GHz. I'm sure it's not just developers in this boat, but I too am pessimistic about the size of that market.

Would software developers change their approach to coding if 32-core chips started to show up in consumer machines? I'd like to think so, but then again, I figured everything would be multithreaded by now.
