Friends of mine who have moved away from China. One of them had police at their door in China for social media posts that were friendly to Uyghurs (not even anything to do with the genocide, just general friendliness as a “we’re all Chinese” kind of message). Being taken to police stations for even slightly questioning the state narrative is terrifying.


It uses other signals too, like what other sites you’ve visited with that checkbox on it, what CloudFlare has seen your IP address doing in the past, etc.
The google one is able to see if you’re logged into a google account and take that into account.
There’s even a new variant of the Google captcha that is invisible and doesn’t even bother to show a checkbox.

Gotta get those five stars


I think they’re lawful evil, more devils than demons.
In my experience I haven’t had an issue because usually the refactorings are small. If they’re not I just hop on a call with the person who wrote the MR and ask them to walk me through it.
In theory I’d like to have time to dedicate solely to code health, but that’s not quite the situation in basically any team I’ve been in.
You should refactor as needed as you go because refactoring cases are never gonna be prioritised.
There’s a markdown entry thing in the drop down menu that’ll convert your MD to their formatting.


Yeah, I’m not justifying the annexation.


Technically only some of HK was under the lease, some was indefinitely controlled by the British. However, you’re still right because of the military force difference.
Rust is roughly similar to C in most of these benchmarks and beats it in a few: https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/fastest/rust.html
Arguably when LLVM gets a bit better, Rust can be even faster than C because rust can be optimised in more places safely than C code can. The issue is that LLVM wasn’t written with that in mind, so some performance is left on the table.
Go, Java, and Nim (in most cases) are all memory safe but are generally slower than C or C++ due to the ways they achieve memory safety.
Rust’s memory safety approach is zero-cost performance wise, which makes it practical for low level, high throughput, and low latency applications.
That flag exists, it’s called unsafe for if you need to tell the borrow checker to trust you or unwrap if you don’t want to deal with handling errors on most ADTs.
You can always cast anything to an unmanaged pointer type and use it in unsafe code.
A crash is different to a SEGFAULT. I’d be very surprised to see a safe rust program segfault unless it was actively exploiting a compiler bug.


You need everyone else in the EU to agree to remove them. Poland and Hungary sort of protect each other from EU consequences.


Good Girl by Aquilo. It brings up a lot of relatable feelings around growing up Christian and ultimately is quite sweet.


The downside is all these greedy landlords make the prices outrageous so nobody can get a deposit on a house. It’s easy when you already own one house because you can use it as collateral and also your tenants will pay off your mortgage.


No, you pay off their mortgage in exchange for not being homeless. All renting should be rent to buy. No renting without equity in exchange.
This is propaganda for the imperialist fascist regime that currently runs the Russian Federation.
