Easy refactoring of an interface/constructor? I've been using go for a while, and I decided to follow the advise of not using a DI for my project. Every time I refactor a constructor, it is a fun hunt to make the same changes everywhere I'm using that constructor.
If it's unclear, that's a ball of sarcasm.
> I'm just speculating here, but what if say Microsoft sent a Russia-wide update that wipes all data and kills Windows?
Besides this being quite unethical because that, again, would affect the common folk, many of whom are against this war, it's a temporary measure. That is, assuming their systems aren't mostly Linux/BSD based.
Please do tell me how 5G boils your blood or something, and how Coronavirus doesn't exist, or some other silly little thing.
Going to the homepage of that website though, it is clear what their narrative is:
> Trudeau’s Canadian Fascism Is a Bigger Threat to America Than Putin
Yeah okay.
There is a reason phrase like microtargetting exists. When a political group is able to target individuals using their platform, that's not okay.
It gets worse though, government surveillance is one thing, it's another when Corporations give them full access to their data. Or did we forget Snowden already?
Anyway, personally I've moved my YouTube account to a dummy account.
Having said that, uBlock Origin, and I'm assuming other similar extensions, offer inline script filtering. The code being served has to have some common code since it's all coming from a single org. What is stopping a filter that includes a filter like this?
The issue obviously being that this still prevents DNS filters from blocking Google, which is equally a big issue. Assuming the scripts indeed have some common code that can be blocked, perhaps this is where we start crowdsource filters. Something that runs in the background, and inspects scripts, which then gets posted to a server, validated automatically, and then later served as a block list that anyone can download.

Most, if not all, tracking is unethical.
But... Why? During my professional career of about 10 years, and even before that, I've not once had to require POSIX compatibility for any of the shell scripts I've written or come across. The few times I had a snippet that couldn't run I have been able to install bash 4+ with ease.
I'm sure there are times where POSIX is kind of needed, but it's becoming exceedingly rare.
Anyway, looks really cool. Dependabot seems to some strange limitations, and I'll probably look into using this.
Out of curiousity, how are you linked to the Jenkins project? Are you just an OSS contributor or do you do this full time?
Great so let's just leave all of the legacy terribleness in it. Let's not address all the quirks and horribleness that sounded like a good idea at the time. Let's not let the language evolve.
For the longest PHP was really great with backwards compatibility, refused to address issues in the name of backwards compatibility. So it became the butt of the jokes it is today.
As you can imagine, I'm on the other end. Providing backwards compatibility is kept for a relatively long time, I don't think it's unreasonable to break changes with a good system (i.e. major version upgrades). In such cases, I welcome it.
Yes for rust, not really for Go. I was able to pick up the basics of Go in less than a day, and the more advanced topics I was able to pick up not long after. OTOH I've tried to pick up Rust several times, and every time I just sit back in defeat.
> should we talk about how dependencies are managed in Go?
I'm curious what you're referring to here. Go's package management works, and is decent enough. No centralisation, and can work with just about any git repo.
The majority of Gary Bernhardt's 2012 talk "wat"[0] is still relevant today with JavaScript. PHP's devs at least are actively trying to address the majority of issues people have had problems with, and have done so successfully for many of the issues it had.
In my opinion the only thing JavaScript has going for it over PHP is its ability to develop frontend and backend code using the same language, but then, you know, you'll need a million NPM dependencies if you pull in some of the simplest packages.
Until TypeScript takes over JavaScript I refuse to believe anyone who understands either languages fully prefers JS over PHP. I've yet to dabble in Deno, but I'm hoping that it also addresses much of the issues with JS, but I'm doubtful since it's also based on V8.
This should have said:
> When you have companies making millions paying less in taxes than the common folk who barely scrape by.
It's not zero sum game because the wealth they create favours the investors. Not the population. The aim of a company is to create wealth for the investors. Not for anyone else.
I'm not sure why it is you're defending the rich in this thread, but your arguments have been overplayed for years.
For sure everyone does their best to minimise the taxes they pay, but when you are the richest person in the world with some $200 billion, maybe you should be doing silly schemes like charity for tax avoidance.
Heck I tend to minimise my taxes, but often I don't even have such opportunity. The best I can do right now is contribute to my pensions. I'm on a current tax rate of around 50%. Outside that, there's not a lot I can do to minimise the tax I pay. Compare that the rich, who through their lobbying, and their schemes have paid an effective tax rate of around 3% over 5 years.
My statement is ridiculous to the rich, not so much to the rest of the population.
How about we dislike those that avoid taxes like the plague, and yet, use all our services to their fullest extent.
How about we dislike those that exploit workers, turned a blind eye, and give a middle finger to most of their workers, and the people?
It's got nothing to do with jealousy, and everything to do with how horrible of a company Amazon is, and how its founder, and until recently its CEO, have let it become a horrible in the name of money.
I don't under people defending the ultra rich. The likelihood of the average joe getting to Bezos' wealth is next to zero. It's ridiculous to defend him despite all the bad he does. Before you say he adds to society by donating money or whatnot (e.g. Bill Gates), you know what works better? A good welfare system for those that need. One that would otherwise be funded partially by the rich's tax money that they love to avoid.
* where I can. I still struggle with "sponsored" content, or fake review sites. It's becoming harder and harder to figure out what isn't an ad, and I hate it. If I see a good review, I don't know if it isn't an ad. If I see a bad review, I don't know it's not a competitor's doing.
Surely they'll only allow that if they pass the auth and the domain belongs to your account?
package main
