I mean, if you treat your inbox as a to-do list, that's not that far-fetched

Wow you're insane. “I know, I'll discredit the woman who just pointed out that it's hard to get credit in her field as a woman ”

Weird how he's helping the far right in both cases.

• complying with Erdogan
• refusing to block fascists

Did you get lost?

Python is just glorified shell scripting

Absolutely not, python is an actual programming language with sane error handling and arbitrarily nestable data structures.

I don't like the indentation crap

Don't be so superficial. When learning something, go with the flow and try to work with the design choices, not against them.

Python simply writes a bit differently: you do e.g. more function definitions and list comprehensions.

Not only is there a UInt8Array, there's also a bunch of others: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/TypedArray#typedarray_objects

What made you reassess?

Once git no longer depends on it, it'll be gone from my system

Nah, gross. You need to set a bunch of global options to get sane behavior on errors.

Nushell is shaping up really really nicely, and it'll actually stop executing if something fails! Even if that happens in a pipe! And it's not super eager to convert between arrays and strings if you use the wrong cryptic rune.

Did you know that you can click the headline to get to an actual article that you can read, which answers this question?

Big difference between the pro and consumer versions though. Which ones are you referring to?

Very true. I doubt the researcher in question would object to use a virus scanner like you described.

Every consumer antivirus software works like the black box rootkit you described, AFAIK.

Great point, but this part of the quote is still dumb as rocks:

Coding is just kind of like the language that we talk to computers. It's not necessarily the skill in and of itself. The skill in and of itself is like, how do I innovate? How do I go build something that's interesting for my end users to use?

Sure, if you have a big workforce hand-coding UI, you might replace some of them by better tools. But things like that are a fraction of a fraction of the responsibilities developers have

Yeah, the motivation here is “please panic-buy our GPUs/please panic-buy into our cloud GPU infrastructure ”

Totally reasonable to not do a dumb thing if you have no contractual obligation to do the dumb thing.

Sadly they had that obligation, so they have to weigh the cost of doing the dumb thing with the cost of breaching contract.

No, that's not the take-away.

Going without AV as a computer-savvy person is perfectly reasonable, as AV companies can't be trusted, and AVs are notorious for having deep seated privileges and bad security themselves – therefore increasing your attack surface.

The take-away is that if you're deciding for an institution that's contractually obligated to do a thing, you should do it.

Again: not what the person said. They said that if someone proves that you host CSAM, you should take it down.

No, that's not what the person is saying in the slightest. Just read their comment again, it's actually very clear.

No. You can say that about so many laws being made, but telegram simply hosts the most vile shit.

It's not perfect, but it's good introductory material for people who fell for the right-wing propaganda of “everybody's called a fascist now, there isn't even a definition”.

Yes, suckers, there are people with an understanding of what fascism is, and they agree for a reason about the dangers of things like calling people vermin, casting doubt on election integrity, and strong man rhetoric.
