However, the commonly repeated meme that Rust only makes backwards-incompatible changes by mistake or to fix soundness issues is wrong. They allow themselves to make changes if they're judged to have a low (but nonzero) risk of causing backwards incompatibility in the wild. For example, adding a new function to a standard trait can be backwards incompatible but they do it all the time. | null | null | 41,789,984 | 41,788,026 | null | [

Over time, Mozilla replaced XUL extensions with Chrome's extensions API (without providing meaningful additions, like reintroducing the ability to modify the UI) and reworked the UI to be a clone of Chrome, so thanks to Mozilla's efforts it might be fair to say that <i>today</i> Chrome is strictly superior (excluding privacy and MV3 etc.).<p>(I still begrudgingly use Firefox BTW :)) | null | null | 41,789,100 | 41,787,290 | null | null | null | null |

So I pay taxes assuming a value of $100.<p>- When I dispose of the stock, it is only worth $80.<p>Will that be a retroactive credit, meaning that I will have to amend my tax return in the year that I collateralized those assets? Would it be a forward tax credit, meaning that I could apply that credit to future years?<p>I worry about this both from a bookkeeping point of view (since this is potentially a lot of credits) but also worry the ways it could be manipulated. | null | null | 41,789,969 | 41,780,569 | null | [

41,790,150 | comment | matheusmoreira | 2024-10-09T17:04:56 | null | Even the biased Wikipedia article you cited calls it a protest.<p>> Protesters invade the National Congress of Brazil<p>There were plenty of reasons to doubt the results, and these judges made numerous contributions to those reasons with their actions. They resisted <i>two</i> attempts from our representatives to add an anonymous paper trail to the "unquestionable" voting machines. They disproportionately censored Bolsonaro and his supporters in the months leading up to the election, called everything they said "fake news". Then they rendered him ineligible due to his perfectly reasonable criticism of the voting machines, out of all the stupid things he said. Then they went to public events to <i>show off</i> about it and say they were personally responsible for defeating him. How do you expect people to accept this as legitimate?<p>As far as I'm concerned, these judges launched the <i>real</i> and successful coup all the way back in 2019 when they usurped power and created a secret tribunal to investigate, prosecute, judge, sentence and punish crimes against themselves. The constitution says that secret tribunals are prohibited, yet they get away with it because they're the highest court and there's no one who can override them. Politicians who can impeach these judges are no doubt corrupt and all it takes to intimidate them is the unearthing of some scandal they were no doubt part of. Thus our representatives do not matter, the laws they write do not matter, these unelected judges do whatever they want and police obeys them. Power does not emanate from us, it is concetrated in their pens.<p>Due to this context, I see those people as blameless protesters of an unjust system who went on to become political prisoners of these judges. Who are you supposed to turn to when you believe <i>the supreme court</i> is violating the constitution? These fools turned to the "heroic" brazilian military and begged them on their knees to sort this mess out. The rest is history. | null | null | 41,785,467 | 41,782,118 | null | null | null | null |

41,790,154 | comment | Nefariouspurpus | 2024-10-09T17:05:08 | null | Although I'm not deeply familiar with the specifics of this particular case, it raises broader questions about the industry that specializes in outsourcing, particularly to countries like India. If outsourcing is a core part of a company's business model, isn’t it inevitable that more jobs will continue to be funneled to countries like India, and, consequently, to Indian workers?<p>While I understand this particular case involves allegations of discrimination within U.S. offices, the larger trend seems unavoidable. As companies prioritize cost-efficiency, it may no longer make economic sense for citizens of HCOL countries, to seek employment with such firms. Similarly, these companies are likely incentivized to constantly try and minimize the number of high-cost employees—whether they are Indians on H1B visas or American citizens—on their payroll.<p>This raises a concern about whether the government should intervene to address this industry trend of outsourcing. However, if we look at what happened with manufacturing and China, one wonders if such intervention will ever come, or if the shift is already inevitable. | null | null | 41,787,787 | 41,785,265 | null | [

It works perfectly for clients who are not programmers, and should replace WordPress for about 99% of websites (except for blogs of course).<p>There is no reason at all for WordPress, it just became popular because people online were recommending it to each other without a thought as to why. I myself was one of these small time web devs, thinking that user editable pages would require such complicated NASA back-ends that WordPress was the only solution. In the end WordPress has been a huge net-negative on the economy as a whole, for all time wasted.<p>>This all could likely be done easier today. But trick is of course figuring out how to save from browser to git.<p>SurrealCMS connects by FTP instead to solve this.<p>[1] <a href="https://www.surrealcms.com" rel="nofollow">https://www.surrealcms.com</a><p>* "What you see is what you get" | null | null | 41,785,604 | 41,775,238 | null | null | null | null |

It's important to emphasize that language (included spelling) is something that develops organically and that the role of these institutions is just to capture the status quo.<p>At least that should be the case in free societies.

I always assumed that the incredible amount of lag and jank was contributed by Citrix. Then after I'd been working there a while I went to the office in New York where my actual desk was, logged into actual physical PC I'd been using the whole time, and it was exactly as bad in person! Right click, wait <i>one whole ass second</i>, context menu drifts into existence. Jank everywhere. I couldn't believe people pay real money for it. | null | null | 41,789,959 | 41,788,557 | null | null | null | null |

Nobody has proven this.<p>If in my universe I could always predict the correct results, then we would just have determinism, and I could predict exactly when an atom would decay. There would be no need for statistics.<p>Some high level background that might help.<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-syaCoqkZA" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-syaCoqkZA</a><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=433tAfO4dbA" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=433tAfO4dbA</a><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvG1A795tqE" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvG1A795tqE</a> | null | null | 41,789,680 | 41,782,534 | null | null | null | null |

The fragment-based approach helped immensely with cutting down the conformational search space. The secondary structure of those fragments was enough to make educated guesses of the protein backbone’s, at a time where <i>ab initio</i> force field predictions struggled with it. | null | null | 41,790,155 | 41,786,101 | null | [
