The False Promise of Liberal Order: Nostalgia, Delusion and the Rise of ...The False Promise of Liberal Order exposes the flaws in this nostalgic vision. The world shaped by America came about as a result of coercion and, sometimes brutal, compromise. Liberal projects - to spread capitalist democracy - led inadvertently to illiberal results. To make peace, America made bargains with authoritarian forces.

At your request I've retracted my downvote, but I still think that this is a link-only answer.

The North American Division has put together a series of links to offer guidance about vaccines from national and international health organizations, the General Conference, and healthcare experts — with the COVID-19 vaccine highlighted in particular.

An array of size 1 is considered equal to its sole element.

Automatic unwrapping is not performed only when:

Its a bit expensive and was a bit skeptical on purchasing at first but decided to try it and can honestly say its the best investment ive made it cools your seams down in a flash so no more waiting to power stretch allowing you to complete your jobs much faster than before and it also helps to fix a bowed pattern carpet allowing you to actually match your pattern also helps with peaked seams (when youre seam is flawless but then you go to stretch it and its now visible because the seam creates a little mountain) if this thing ever broke down on me i'd happily and easily buy it again and would never go to a jobsite without it, a must have for all carpet installers

Use kids-in-mind.com instead.

If a site tries to charge me for work others do for free I block them. They're not paying these people to review, there's no standard of quality for these reviews. It's not something that should be charged for. Or maybe I just overdo things, I even refuse to use the self-checkouts at stores because there's someone they can pay for that and unless I get a discount for my work I'm not doing it. People keep allowing companies to get away with crap like that and now stores will have 1 employee and 20 self-checkout stations

I used common sense media for years as my kids are 9/10 now... Use kids-in-mind.com instead. My guess is that common sense media is fine with 1/10th (or less) of the traffic they used to have, if the 1/10th is paying...Not gonna pay for something I use maybe once a month to check one category, it is disappointing though.

Self checkouts should be giving us a discount for checking our own selves out. I've learned that you may put items under your cart and accidentally pay yourself by missing an item or two if you're in a pressured rush. Often I forget items in the store because I forget to bag them in a hurry. I figure the score is about even. I'm too lazy to go back and get what I forget by the time I get home. At least we should get a dollar off per $50 spent. It takes me 5 times as long to check myself out.

if an invitee is invited to do business in a store and is injured snooping around in the private storage area, he does not have invitee status in that area. So if the invitee is snooping around in the dark, trips and falls on something, the land occupier is not liable since the snooper exceeded the consent given him/her

If there is no database initialized when the container starts, then a default database will be created. While this is the expected behavior, this means that it will not accept incoming connections until such initialization completes. This may cause issues when using automation tools, such as docker-compose, which start several containers simultaneously. If the application you're trying to connect to MySQL does not handle MySQL downtime or waiting for MySQL to start gracefully, then putting a connect-retry loop before the service starts might be necessary.

the problem with docker builds is the made-up concept of "context". Dockerfiles are not sufficient to define a build, unless they are placed under a strategic directory (aka context), i.e. "/" as an extreme, so you can access any path (note that that's not the right thing to do in a sane project either..., plus it makes docker builds very slow because docker scans the entire context at start).

I would not change the project structure to accommodate Docker (or any build tools).

Each environment can be matched with the following environment spec:

git ls-tree --name-only [branch]

This is telling the browser that the width of #header should be 100% with a padding of 30px. Since padding is not counted into the width, the actual width ends up to be 100% + 60px. So, in order to make sure this fits into the page, you need to subtract 60px (30px to the left + 30px to the right) from the 100% width and it will fit into the browser. Luckily you are easily able to do this with CSS: #header{ padding: 30px; width: calc(100% - 60px);

Thats because you have both width and padding set to one element. And by default padding is added on top of width. (Making it 100% + 2*30px of width). #header{ padding: 30px; width: 100%; } Either remove padding and add it to an inner element with no width set, or use: box-sizing: border-box; Which makes the width calculation include padding. :)

some kudos for not doing review manipulation to get fake positive reviews, and also kudos for not doing an asset flip. No matter how bad this is, it's their original work, and that's (more or less) a good thing in this age of Russian asset flip garbage.

TREE(3) is surprisingly large.TREE(1) = 1 and TREE(2) = 3, but then TREE(3) is suddenly vastly beyond comprehension.But once you know that TREE(3) is too big to grok, there’s not a lot left to be said about TREE(n) for specific n > 3; surely they’re bigger. In fact, they are probably so much bigger that even TREE(4) will dwarf TREE(3) to a much greater extent than TREE(3) dwarfs our familiar numbers. But that isn’t surprising once you know about TREE(3).In principle, of course, there is no reason you have to stop. You could consider, for example, TREETREE(TREE(3)) (3), where you start by plugging 3 into TREE, then plug that into TREE, and keep going through a total of TREE(TREE(3)) iterations. That would definitely be a (disturbingly, in my opinion) large number. But it’s not particularly interesting, as large numbers go.

The interaction operator strict requires a strict sequencing (order) of the operands on the first level within the combined fragment

The interaction operator seq means that the combined fragment represents a weak sequencing between the behaviors of the operands.

Weak sequencing reduces to a parallel merge when the operands are on different sets of participants. Weak sequencing reduces to strict sequencing when the operands work on the same participant.

The definitions provided are tremendously valuable to figure out the very similar but different two paradigms.

I recommend using the term “parallel” when the simultaneous execution is assured or expected, and to use the term “concurrent” when it is uncertain or irrelevant if simultaneous execution will be employed.

multiple sub-tasks of a task

Concurrency is about dealing with lots of things at once. Parallelism is about doing lots of things at once.

A system is said to be concurrent if it can support two or more actions in progress at the same time. A system is said to be parallel if it can support two or more actions executing simultaneously.

Parallelism means that an application splits its tasks up into smaller subtasks which can be processed in parallel, for instance on multiple CPUs at the exact same time.

Concurrency means executing multiple tasks at the same time but not necessarily simultaneously.

Concurrency means that an application is making progress on more than one task at the same time (concurrently)

Mermaid allows even non-programmers to easily create detailed and diagrams through the Mermaid Live Editor.

Diagramming and documentation costs precious developer time and gets outdated quickly. But not having diagrams or docs ruins productivity and hurts organizational learning. Mermaid addresses this problem by enabling users to create easily modifiable diagrams, it can also be made part of production scripts (and other pieces of code).

a hyponym is in a type-of relationship with its hypernym

hyponym denoting a subtype

hypernym or hyperonym (sometimes called umbrella term or blanket term[1][2][3][4]) denoting a supertype

In other words, the semantic field of the hyponym is included within that of the hypernym.

We definitely want to have a way to monitor this "queue" as a follow-up with a Prometheus counter. This counter could be used to create alerts in case the queue grows significantly, for example: the scheduled (every 1 minute) worker cannot keep up with the deletions.

A review from the Technical Writing team before you merge is recommended. Reviews can happen after you merge.

Each commit should meet the following criteria: Have a well-written commit message. Has all tests passing when used on its own (e.g. when using git checkout SHA). Can be reverted on its own without also requiring the revert of commit that came before it. Is small enough that it can be reviewed in isolation in under 30 minutes or so.

Even if the browser ignores the closing slash in void tags, it's good practice to close it because: 1. in frameworks like react js if these are not close, it creates an error 2. if you want your document to be readable by an XML parser then must close all elements

I wrote my own OAuth 2 implementation in the end, it actually wasn't that hard once you understand the spec.

We want to use the Doorkeeper gem to implement an OAuth provider in our app. However, we use 2 factor auth in the login process, so we need a way to modify the password grant to accept email, password and a 2fa token (and respond with an appropriate error if the 2fa token is required and missing).

Reuses OmniAuth strategy implementation, such as facebook or google

I'm building a Rails API with a separate web frontend app as "just another API client" (various smartphone apps to follow as well). In the previous "monolithic" version of the service, where all the server side was rolled into one Rails app

is there a more official way to deal hook in OmniAuth so we can authenticate with Facebook, Twitter, or Google?

2) The kanji are organized in chapters with wide themes (respectively: world, food, animals, people, body, spirit, power, learn, tools, places, journey). These chapters are in turn divided up into mini-themes dealing with each chapter (for example, different animals and ideas associated with them). This helped me a lot in mentally organizing kanji and their meanings.

Water your lawn deeply about once a week, or when the grass looks slightly wilted, providing about an inch (2.5 cm.) of water each time. Avoid frequent, shallow irrigation which results in weak roots that can’t tolerate summer heat. Don’t water if the lawn doesn’t need it.

Roots growing along the surface of the soil is equivalent to an exposed nerve: they are not protected from the environment.

Water deeply but only when the grass shows signs of stress; deep, infrequent irrigation creates strong, drought-tolerant roots. Never water every day; watering too frequently encourages shallow, weak roots and unhealthy grass. For a healthy lawn and sturdy roots, wait as long as possible before waterin

If the application credentials check out, the authorization server returns an access token to the application. Now the application is authorized to use its own account.

I just learned today that extend apparently doesn't override class methods that are already defined, even though the extend happens later:

I don’t like that when I read the Basecamp news and had a visceral reaction, my first thought was, “Will my commit access be revoked if I share what’s on my mind?” It’s incredibly unclear what mechanisms exist to remove commit access from someone against their will, and also unclear what recourse those people can take to get it re-instated.

It can be exhausting to backchannel and “find buy-in” for every little thing.

The funny thing is that I didn’t even realize that’s what I was doing. I loved a system driven by programmers because it “made sense to me” about getting changes in.

I loved that if I “did the work”, then I got the benefits.

I loved that if I “did the work”, then I got the benefits. If there’s something in Rails I didn’t like, I felt empowered to change it.

The older you are, the harder it is to get hired; despite laws and expectations to the contrary, unconscious, and even conscious, age discrimination does exist. When you have more experience, you will often be interviewed by people who in the normal course of circumstances would be reporting to you.

Indeed, judging from the accounts of the many employees who have now gone on record about this issue, the “debates” that have been happening at Basecamp are precisely the kinds of conversations that happen when you have a diverse workforce. Different issues affect different people differently, and being able to speak freely about those differences is the hallmark of a healthy culture. But by framing these discussions as “acrimonious debates” rather than “challenging conversations,” Hansson has positioned himself not as a peacemaker, but as a tyrant hell-bent on taking his toys and going home; shutting down discussions rather than holding space for growth and discovery.

If Hansson and Fried had been able to tolerate the dissenting opinions of their own employees, they might have been in for a difficult few weeks or months, but the long-term benefit of cultivating an atmosphere of trust would have been invaluable. Instead, they decided to make their tantrum international news. In doing so, they have all but dismantled the positive reputation they spent more than a decade carefully crafting.

Epics, issues, requirements, and others all have similar but just subtle enough differences in common interactions that the user needs to hold a complicated mental model of how they each behave.

Issues are not extensible enough to support all of the emerging jobs they need to facilitate.

Issues are starting to become cluttered as we add more capabilities to them, and they are not perfect

Using labels to show issue types is cumbersome and makes reporting views more complex.

This leads to duplicated effort and ultimately small differences between common interactions.

New functionality is typically implemented with first class objects that import behavior from issues via shared concerns.

There is not a coherent interaction model across different types of issues because we use labels for this.

Here are some problems with current issues usage and why we are looking into work items:

WI model will be built on top of the existing Issue model and we’ll gradually migrate Issue model code to the WI model.

To avoid confusion and ensure communication is efficient, we will use the following terms exclusively when discussing work items.

Example of misuse

View tasks in issues, in the Child items section.

The task is not deleted, but the two are no longer connected. It’s not possible to connect them again.

cognitively adjacent

Process the log file to determine the spread of data: cat /tmp/sslparams.log | cut -d ' ' -f 2,2 | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn | perl -ane 'printf "%30s %s\n", $F[1], "="x$F[0];'

Replace 'log' with 'clock'; do you think it should be "clockin" because you aren't "clocking" anything? Plus, if 'login' was a verb, you'd not be logging in, but logining. Eww. Or, you'd have just logined instead of logged in.

I feel very happy about them indeed because they take me to the destinations they promise (they're all nouns). Login doesn't take me to my login, which makes me sad. It does take me to a place where I can log in, however.

oh I'm fine with defective verbs. I'm not fine with inconsistency, though. Make it "Signup and login", and make it that on every SE page everywhere ever, and you can countin me.

this has nothing to do with verbification, or "verbing."

This is not an attempt to arrest the evolution of the language, but to correct mistakes.

"you can verb any noun". :) Though, comparing "ssh into a workstation" to "login to host.com", where "log in" exists, it's a bit like saying "entrance the building" when "enter the building" already works

Login is a noun, the same as breakup (suffer a breakup), backup (keep backups safe), spinoff (a Star Wars spinoff), makeup, letdown,

Sure, you can try to solve that problem by using a one-word alternative for any multi-word phrase, but that's not always possible. Instead of relying on luck, being at the mercy of copy writers, and artificially limited to only allowing one-word items, IMHO you would be better off finding a general design solution that works even for multi-word phrases. Adjusting the letter-spacing and margin between items in your list isn't that hard

Given that so much of the web environment isn't being written by writers who care, I'm increasingly seeing 'login' used as a verb.

Don’t make claims unless you can cite documentation, formalized guidelines, and coding examples to back those claims up. People need to know why they are being asked to make a change, and another developer’s personal preference isn’t a good enough argument.

OAuth, or Open Authorization is a protocol for users to authorize websites to access their information without handing over a password.

Mint as of late has made it harder for scrapers to scrape it.

However, captcha should not be happening this often.

It would completely change how I view mint.com. It would become a powerful mechanism for opening up my own access to my own financial data which is currently being locked away by my banks, credit card companies and other providers. All I get is a crappy UI from those places. Mint's UI is much better, but an API would completely change the game.

Isn't there some tech support at Google to cancel the requirement to enter a pinfor a screen unlock?  I've been having to do this dozens of times a day for monthsand it is driving me crazy!

How do I turn off the requirement to have a lock screen?Today, I'm suddenly unable to use any Google related apps on my phone, because I am now REQUIRED to set up a lock screen on my phone. I get that you want to be super-secure for businesses using enterprise devices. I am not a business. I'm some guy who just happens to have a domain name. My only "employee" is me. I have a two email addresses: My real first name, and the shorter version that most people call me. I do NOT want a lock screen on my phone. I don't want to be forced to give myself permission to use apps on my phone. Why am I now required to add all this bull$%^? Nobody is hacking my interwebs. Give me a f#$%^& break! I don't need a lock screen. I've been using this account for everything (gmail, youtube, etc) for over five years now. I'm not interested in deleting it and going back to my gmail.com account. I'm also not interested in being forced to click multiple times just to use my phone. Let me disable it.So, how do I turn this garbage off?

Reducing nested structures is tiresome. Have you tried immer?

Don't disregard it because it's cute.

A related technique is git submodules, but they come with annoying caveats (for example people who clone your repository won't clone the submodules unless they call git clone --recursive),

git-subtrac (from the author of the earlier git-subtree) seems to solve some of the problems with git submodules.

# Do this the first time: $ git remote add -f -t master --no-tags gitgit https://github.com/git/git.git $ git subtree add --squash --prefix=third_party/git gitgit/master # In future, you can merge in additional changes as follows: $ git subtree pull --squash --prefix=third_party/git gitgit/master # And you can push changes back upstream as follows: $ git subtree push --prefix=third_party/git gitgit/master # Or possibly (not sure what the difference is): $ git subtree push --squash --prefix=third_party/git gitgit/master

I intend to keep it around and maybe fix up minor things here and there if needed, but don't really have any plans for new features at this point. I think it's great to give people the option to choose the Go port if the advanced features is what they're after.

The vendor prefix (vnd.) indicates that it is custom for this vendor.

The +json indicates that it can be parsed as JSON, but the media type should define further semantics on top of JSON.

then two different listeners/renderers switching magically between each other based on the header being present or not, without the end user being informed or clear about this

Thus my docs recommendation of public function beforeFilter(Event $event) // do not render out the now inconsistent one for is(json) if (!$this->request->is('jsonapi')) { throw new NotFoundException('Invalid access, use application/vnd.api+json for Content-Type and Accept.'); } } to specifically only whitelist the desired jsonapi for the general use case.

A default baked app has all those included. Thats why I am saying this - it is by default an issue we should and need to address :)

If you're using JavaScript for writing to a HTML Attribute, look at the .setAttribute and [attribute] methods which will automatically HTML Attribute Encode. Those are Safe Sinks as long as the attribute name is hardcoded and innocuous, like id or class.

If you're using JavaScript for writing to HTML, look at the .textContent attribute as it is a Safe Sink and will automatically HTML Entity Encode.
