I never heard of this library before. Most projects seem to use libssh2. https://github.com/libssh2/libssh2

"A cure" is a very deceptive headline; it's an allegedly curative personalized protocol, The Bredesen Protocol™.

Hmm: looking at 19th century shops where only merchants picked products to self-checkout today, that seems like the trend. Everyone will end up doing everything themselves.

Not everyone qualifies for SS because either they didn't pay in long or enough. There's thousands of people working well into their 70's and 80's in menial jobs because SS doesn't cover their living expenses. For example, I'm worried about my mom because her finances are dwindling.

Because human activities are error-prone, evacuations cause an increase in fatalities; so any evacuation decision has to be balanced against the risks of sheltering locally.

I'm equally excited about AvE tearing it apart and ripping Dyson a new one.

Stupid^3. When (not if) the dollar is dropped, within a decade, as the de-facto intl currency, the American economy, combined with the insane and unsustainable public and private debt, will tank like nothing before.

Hollywood, YC, Google and anyone else whom collaborates with and enables the Chinese regime has such a level of moral turpitude that they're either fools or sociopaths.

New comment by anon49124 in "Computer Programmers: Occupational Outlook Handbook:: U.S"

anon49124 — Thu, 11 Oct 2018 22:08:40 +0000

Employment of computer programmers is projected to decline 7 percent from 2016 to 2026. Computer programming can be done from anywhere in the world, so companies sometimes hire programmers in countries where wages are lower.

Also, this lacks consideration of automation of programming itself when deep learning can listen to users and build interfaces and APIs directly and faster than any human ever could.

From my understanding, Jamal Khashoggi, a regime insider journalist was disappeared and allegedly dismembered by a hit squad of 15 assassins in the Saudi Ankara embassy, according to Ankara/Turkish police, because he violated an unwritten rule: once an insider, one must never be critical of or disobey the royals. His "self-imposed" exile didn't diminish his insider status in the minds of the regime. His gruesome murder (and possibly torture) was intended to send a message.

To be fair, China disappears dissidents too.

If they're then farmed anything like Norwegian-owned salmon, which destroy the local ecosystem with underwater clouds of shit, sea lice, excessive antibiotics, higher levels of toxins than wild-caught (PCBs, dioxins, toxaphene, dieldrin and mercury), feed preservatives, lower Omega-3 levels than wild fish and corrupt politicians pretending everything is okay, adding more GMOs to the mix seems like putting lipstick on a fish.
