I think there is a difference between comparing strings and so on, versus actually semantically processing the text. Spam/Phishing detection already feels invasive to me (although there is no way I would leave that to most users), and this is just one step further.
I still think that your argument of "conveying most important information first" is really something that should be tackled through the title, but I agree with the rest.
> communicate the effect of the change as quickly as possible
This should happen in the title of the PR overall. In larger projects, a single commit is rarely pushed alone. Personally, I use it as a checkpoint to save progress rather than really it being a meaningful piece of work. But then again, I rarely work on projects with lots of people, so this may not be wholly perfect for that use case.
What I don't understand is how you get to a valuation of $32B. My quick googling showed me that the revenue for Wiz is about $700M. Even if I assume the existing customers + name + platform/assets is worth several billion, where is this number coming from?
To be clear: I am young and ignorant. I am trying to learn, not criticise
I definitely did not consider this earlier. Do you know of some other big examples where monetary loss was actually a win when considered in an overall context?
We were presumably talking about an ideal massless space [Minkowski] in which the speed of light in a vaccuum is considered -- that is what c is defined as.
I wonder whether you believe these people would ever be endorsed by the faces of the Rust language or whether the majority of people in the community would behave so. In my experience (not to minimise yours), the Rust community and FOSS in general, are some of the most open and welcoming communities online, albeit with clear exceptions
Honestly, that website is so far off the end of the sanity meter that I don't know what to say. Technically, you are right in that counterexamples exist. But on platforms like HN/techincal subreddits etc., never seen it myself, suggesting the problem is far less widespread than one might be initially moved to assume.
It is not limited to rust zealots or whatever. I have seen this phenomenon of people criticising a certain category for doing something in the comment section on reddit/youtube, but never actually seen the people doing that thing, even browsing the most heavily downvoted comments. Some weird group mentality victimisation.
Indeed. Furthermore, the fact that there is still a replacement makes the discussion even more pertinent in this case, since OP is arguing for the abolition of any such protocol.
What does "once in a century" mean? This is a great accomplishment, and the first proof, but we have dozens of _extremely_ impressive results each century and hundreds more impressive ones.
The law is written to prevent loopholes and exploits -- an extremely hard task, given the number of people willing to break it for even the slightest profits. The sheer number of these "false exits", that, then need to be covered, makes making reading and interpreting the law a hard endeavor. And a very precise one. It could be easier by some fraction, but never anywhere near easy.
I completely agree with your points. However, my admittedly snarky comment was regarding the idea that simply searching for a term across a document is how one decides legal validity, with no regard to alternate jargon, definitions, and of course, as you point out outcomes.
This is exactly the kind of argument that leads to projects decaying. Not saying that WINE will let that happen, but without contributions, it is hard to develop, maintain and upgrade codebases the size of Mono.
Not parent, but: The primary inconvenience I see with de-googling is just the sheer number of things that become just slightly harder. For one, Login with Google. Now, I know people de-googling will probably want to have separate accounts rather than SSO anyways, but it is an important consideration. You also lose GDrive and the GSuite in general, which alternatives exist, yes, but IMO not as good. Also, most people who work online on GDocs will now find it inconvenient to collaborate with you.
Pedantic, but they are top of the market in neither since Switzerland is not in the EU, and definitely not in the UK.
But it is true that in Europe, Switzerland PhDs (and professors too) make most. Not just ETH/EPFL as well. UZH (Uni Zurich) has salaries of 50K CHF per year for PhD candidates (with increments every year) -- that's almost 60K USD by your fourth year. This is also true for other universities. And while Zürich is expensive, it is not _that_ expensive.
