As other have said, doxing is even worse! If they had searched for her privately, and didn't find her, bummer. But to step up the hunt and dox someone publicly is a totally different story. Disgusting what organisations are capable of, and what is being casually supported by the public!

I don't want root on my Phone, I want a stable and consistent UX. Maybe even efficient and simple. You can give me root if you gift the device to me, I'll accept that. But I am totally done with "our users are our beta testers". Even switched to upgrading iOS only at .3 minor releases. It is so fucking tiiring.

This sounds like borderline stalking. I am not a woman, but I have my experience with getting treated unfairly/getting patronized. And I never felt like I wanted to give a bad actor a second chance to talk down to me, even if they pretend to have good intentions. If you fucked someone over, you dont have the right to run after them. Leave them alone, stop confronting them over and over again with your own stupidity.

Barking dogs... The biggest consequences we will have to face are all the ukrainian fugitives. A country not particularily well known for their law-abiding citizens.

> officially determined who's responsible

Becuase they are afraid to figure out the truth. It might not fit the propaganda narrative.

Don't fall for the propaganda. At least I am more afraid of the US warmongerin then Russia invading Europe. But to each their own, pick your favourite panic.

Its an (political) echo chamber, and will ultimately contribute to the division of people.

Well, but personal websites and rss have lost, sadly. I agree with you that being mainstream is not the defining characteristic of a working system. OTOH, every "community" has a lower bound when it comes to involvement. At some point, things just die out, like FidoNet or CB radio.

Wha? Well, there are blind people who barely know how to use their cane, but... Let me explain.

Manfred Spitzer once wrote that he thinks there are two groups of people on this planet who really have good audio location capabilities. Blind people and conductors. Conductors because they need to be able to listen to a particular performer, to isolate them from the rest of the orchester. And blind people, because we use the ear to navigate the world.

Now, I actually use everything around me as a source of sound. Tapping with the cane is one of them. However, if I want to "scan" my environment, I usually make a clicking noise with my tongue.

But those are the a small part of the game. The rest of the noises I use come from outside. Just a small example, before I loose myself in thsi comment: I can hear poles and trees on the sidewalk. Not because they emit so much sound, but because they eat it up. If a car drives behind the pole along the street, I can actually hear the point where the external sound doesn't reach me, infering that there must be a pole or a tree. Echo location is not always about what you send. Its m6ore about you learning how the sound waves around you behave. Sometimes, but this is getting borderline esoteric, I can hear the materials involved. Walking towards a wooden wall sounds destinctly different from walking towards a concrete wall...

Why is it that the first thing I try tends to uncover shortcomings?

typedef uint64_t qbb_t __attribute__((vector_size(sizeof(uint64_t) * 4)))

Syntax error

OK, its an extension, meh.

The problem are incentives. There are monetary incentives to create whatever technology you can, because you can, and thats the way you earn money. There is zero incentive to consider how your technology might be abused.

Why is it that people working on spy tech never have an ethics section in there "what I've learnt" rumblings?

I am not an active Zig guy, so... YYMV, but... To me, the examples are actually not self explanatory. What does the _ do? How are these constants used? Why is it something special? C had enums since forever, what is the novelty here?

I was trying to remember how it was called, but failed, thanks for that link! I didn't realize it was pass through, never needed that...

I still remember foldly my first sound card, roughly around '93. It was a LPT connected chip that did 22kHz (I believe mono) audio to 3.5mm. Was directly supported by ModEdit. I remember downloading the schematics as an ASCII file. Went to a local electronics shop and bought all the listed items. and handed it over to my cousin who was good with electronics at the time. He soldered the thing together, without a case... And I used it for about 2 years, without it ever breaking. Those were the days!

Babylon AD comes to mind, which depicted this weird tendency to hold onto past animals.

I no longer care. I cought the left lying to me too often in the last 4 years. I am done. All I want is maximum distance to all of that.

I am done with maniiuplative out-of-context quotes, like the other one about "you will not have to vote again". I've seen too much outright deception from the left, which were supposed to be the good guys, I am done.

So, sort of motivated by reading that many other people seem to experiment with standing desks, I installed a standing terminal at home. Used it sporadically (so only an hour at a time or so) for a few months. Then, my right foot developed a very painful problem. Dragged that with me the whole winter. When I went to the doctor, they didn't find (suprise!) any cuases. Took me 8 months to recover my right foot totally. Lessons learned: Forget about the new trendy alternative craze, its likely just bullshit.

No worries, "Meth" was largely unknown in my area, until you guys exported "Breaking Bad". Roughly a year or two later, it started to be available here as well. Thanks for that, media industry, that was a wonderful move! /s

I wouldn't consider FEN a great parsing example, simply because it can be implement in a simple function with a single loop.

Just a few days ago, I wrote a FEN "parser" for an experimental quad-bitboard impelementation. It almost wrote itself.

P.S.: I am the author of chessIO on Hackage

Ah, thanks for the link! I know his YouTube channel, but somehow I never realized there is a webpage too!

Do you have a suggestion on where to / how to start learning Prolog beyond towers-of-hanoi? Prolog is basically the last language on my list of things I want to look at, but whenever I tried, I failed to find anything practical to do/try.

Oh, so you tell me what I can say, and what I can not say? You know what, no. Thats not your call. My exerience with liberals is what it is. You guys managed to alienate about everyone around you, just see the election results. You're being elitist with a hunch of arrogance and bigottery. You think you stand above everything, just because people are not behaving and speaking like you think they should.

> divisive and uses racist and violent rhetoric

That pretty much describes leftist outbursts I've seen in recent years. You wouldn't believe what liberals are capabe of uttering, if they think they are superior to someone else.

> they invented the term

Wait! The term incel was already around when GenZ were still busy wetting dipers.

Why is it that liberals/leftists are such doomsayers with a general hint of depression? This starts to feel like group mental illness.

I wonder when the environmentalists will realize what is going on right now, and start to protest AI usage in general. I was already wondering the same when the open source community started to CI every damn PR and commit, but I guess I was too optimistic with that one.

I would be surprised if Toylet-companies weren't already working on something like that.

See, you pretty much confirmed my point. You reduce my disability to accessibility issues. Thats only a small part of the story. The much bigger part is that random people do not treat me like a independent human being. Your rather dismissive approach couldn't confirm my pont more. Again, if it were possible, I'd switch places every day. I am sure you wouldn't want to. So please, lets stop comparing who has it worse, its soo sad having to argue about that.
