Re:Google Grapples with Fallout After Employee Slams Diversity Efforts

You can't discuss anything on the Internet anymore, everything is politicized ax-grinding by dishonest people fishing for clicks, personal celebrity, and Patreon money who just ruin the discussion.
Do real journalists still exist that can actually interview some of the parties involved, cut through the tweets and personality, and get both sides of this?

Reddit is pretty bad without the RES extension, it's not surprising they want to change that.

I believe he can have PAs under him writing prescriptions in his name also. For chronic pain I assume there's not much to evaluate but click "approve" in some medical information system.
Re:Rust's 2017 roadmap, six months in

PyQt and PySide was exactly what I had in mind. It'll leak memory, segfault on load 1% of the time, segfault if you call unrelated methods in the wrong order, you'll randomly get QStrings and QExceptions instead of their Python equivalents, and it'll be impossible to debug.

You might try the imgui/nuklear crates, dealing with generated bindings for something massive like Qt will never be pleasant.

It's a reasonable indirection, putting encryption into the file system is controversial, see NTFS for the pitfalls.

Complain to their web host then, Cloudflare has nothing to do with this unless you're arguing there's a right to DDoS them.
Re:I supported legalizing all drugs, then the opioid epidemic happened

When people talk about legalizing drugs they usually mean "soft" drugs like weed/LSD/mushrooms and not opioids/benzos.

I wonder if they're mistaking economic factors causing more drug deaths for the new and lethal Fentanyl-laced heroin on the streets.

You haven't been acquainted with asoundrc/dmix/alsamixer. ALSA is to Pulse as XFree86 is to Xorg, I feel no nostalgia for it at all.
