Well this breach is an old breach from 2019. People should stay up to date with security breaches.
This is a perfectly well-reasoned and responsible comment. I have no doubt that's what will make it unsuitable for upvoting.
The patent angle in one of the OPs argument struck me as very important - I wouldn't automatically disqualify a need to purchase some a legal monopoly of a particular sports-relevant aspect, where some competitors are prohibited to have it at the whim of a third party (e.g. the author suggested, perhaps hypothetical, example of a shoe 'sold to public' by putting 50 pairs in a Tokyo store once and never again) does not seem fair play.

Can we make a simple blanket policy that patent-protected gear of any kind are automatically prohibited in races? I mean, if there's no performance impact, then it shouldn't be a problem for athletes to use some other, patent-free gear, and if there is a performance impact, it shouldn't get used.
Perhaps this could also negate the core issue of this article, as the impact on sports is arguably caused by the desire to sell such tech to mass market; but if the high-tech shoes can be sold to mass market only without an impact on competitions, then Nike can put in their shoes whatever shiny gadgets they want.
You mean quick game making tools? Yeah there're some good alternatives like love2d, pico8, compared to these kaboom provide more abstractions and helpers and runs natively on web, but it's also less mature than these since it's much younger
Data collection is probably the low hanging fruit of all technological solutions, skewing where tech goes.
what makes is fast is the use of requestAnimationFrame [1] (rather than setTimeout or setInterval) that exists in all modern browsers and simply applying css, letting the browser handle and GPU-accelerate as it sees fit. the only thing the js does is compute the matrices for each step/frame in fixed-length typed arrays.

"...learning from Einstein is as simple as reading what he wrote and the way he described his theories."

"If you want to find out anything from the theoretical physicist about the methods they use, I advise you to stick closely to one principle: don't listen to their words, fix your attention on their deeds."
Poor is a loose word, but there are quite a few people I grew up with who do basically the same job as their parents yet can't afford as much of a house as their parents did at the same age and have less future financial security (retirement savings, pensions, whatever) as their parents did at the same age.

Their TV is bigger, but they're also much more stressed about their security...
>For someone who thought of themselves as an empathetic dev overworking myself FOR the end users and product, this hurt and I’m not sure I ever really recovered.

I think everyone remembers the time when they learned it's not worth it to work insane hours to make some sort of launch just so you get to do it all over again in 6 months.

I worked 22 straight days to meet an insane deadline. I delivered my stuff 4am the morning of only to be told that every other team was late and the inflexible due date that couldn't be changed, got pushed back 6 months.
This entire take is predicated on the idea that the people in power have something to gain from doing this, since it requires the ruling class to do all of these things. It falls completely flat if you think about the logic beyond trying to make it fit your ideological narrative.

Why would the ruling class (which his tweet presupposes is corrupt), who benefit from this status quo, purposefully destroy the systems that make them rich? It just doesn't make sense, the logic implies that a corrupt ruling class would purposefully destroy the systems that allow them to be corrupt in order to achieve "socialism" (which Naval clearly implies is somehow innately corrupt here). Why would they destroy what they benefit from on purpose?

Ruling classes benefit from stability, if people are not starving and live generally decent/free lives they won't search above for answers or be inclined to upheaval.

> destroy savers, and force them into inflated assets.

I don't understand this part, isn't it a broad consensus in the US that savings should not be in cash but instead in a diverse set of assets and bonds? How does inflating assets destroy savers in this case? Every time I hear advice on saving in the US it's basically (take anything above emergency fund savings and invest it in ETFs/index funds/bonds)

Mac and Linux antialiasing are light years ahead of Windows, unless you are using 20 year old 100 DPI or lower monitors. Now that 4K is standard on laptops, and 5k on desktops, Cleartype is an artifact of antiquity.
That would be illegal. And probably it would be the SEC (ie a regulator that actually does things) who would be making sure that PayPal or Robinhood or whoever aren’t lying.
I have also bought some keycaps and switches from Kono[1]. They seemed to have a decent selection.

Most Dutch left-wing voters have been acknowledging this for many years now. It's very often been publicly criticised in Dutch media as well.

Google "Nederland belastingparadijs" and you'll find a lot of Dutch articles about it.
the only time i've ever actually seen them wrong is when the predictions happen far faster or are more catastrophic than predicted.

It's wild how many people believe this is still "in dispute" but then again, that's what Exxon and Chevron paid big bucks for, nonstop merchants of endless doubt.

It is not. Science is “built on” evidence.

I am a professional scientist. Nobody has ever given me a pass on publication simply because they want to believe me.

That said, science is a human institution, and all humans have cognitive biases that can be exploited - particularly in large groups.

There's a huge trough in what you can do with what you can buy when you earn between $80k a year and ~$8m.

It's the same shit just better.

Your shitty commuter house 3 hours out of town is now a mansion 20 min outside of town. Your shitty 1990 ford fiesta is a very nice 2020 BMW. Your shitty healthcare plan is a great healthcare plan, but the main difference is how nice the plants at the doctors office are. If you want to get a divorce your new partner looks a lot better than your old one. Your furniture isn't chipboard from Ikea, it's hand made ethically sourced mahogany. Your flights aren't economy class, they are business+/first class. You don't have to run your washing machine, you pay someone to do it.

If you want anything interesting, like say a nuclear reactor in your basement, or a jet two seater Canard, you can't afford it because no one makes it. Unless you have the connections to start a company to make them, or have literal billions lying around, you don't have the resources to do anything but live middle class+.
Thank you for your service. Do you guys help recently graduated MS student with research experience?

I think efforts like these are patches for a soon-to-be obsolete system.

Science publishing needs to look less like Gutenberg and more like Quora - way faster turnaround and less susceptible to corruption amongst overly powerful editorial committees.

Social graph APIs have solved the identity & attribution problems that prevented blogs from filling this niche (no tenure committee cares about your blog's pageviews because they are hard to assess), so we should be seeing meaningful competition soon.

You're not wrong, but I think that's more a function of how one becomes a respected architect than the potentials of the students. I suspect it's an out growth of what Taleb called the 'expert problem' in that the best architects are anointed as such by other architects, rather than the public.

How are you going to manage querying ad-hoc fields? AFAIK every field within your ZODB-query needs to be indexed in ZODB first?
I remember reading about git and thinking "branching and merging in svn really isn't that hard, who needs this distributed versioning stuff?". But then I worked at what appears to have been one of the few companies on the planet that used svn correctly.
This is what I mean with knowing what risks your application / framework / language will bring and mitigating them accordingly.

I tend to think that remarketing actually hurts many times. I hate visiting a site to consider a product, only to then be followed around the web by banners for that project for days after. It makes me hate the product.
No, not at all. There is no concept of a component on the server side in GWT. For GWT server is like a second tier, similar as you would write in JavaScript. Though, GWT gives you few ways to communicate with server:

1. RPC, which is in a way similar to RMI. It supports polymorphism, so you can get an interface in response and GWT will create correct implementation. Java is required on server.

2. RequestFactory, which is more focused on data transfer than implementation. It also allows to transfer data model, which in server is not compatible with GWT. Sends only delta of changes when sending back to server. Also requires Java on server.

3. REST. It is not maybe advertised that mutch, but GWT can work with any REST endpoint. It has built in JSON (de)serialization with AutoBeans; or you could also use Overlay types. There also some third party libraries for REST. This time server can be anything, just to return JSON.

But if you really want to have sibling component on the server side, then there is Vaadin - a framework built on top of GWT which has server-side components which synchronize with client-side counterparts. But then, all handlers are on server, rather than client as with GWT.
An organized, carefully executed plan to thwart global surveillance is a good thing. But EFF laid its plan out, and critiques of that plan are fair game.

So: our industry has largely Google to thank for:

* The development and deployment of TLS forward secrecy, a technology that has very little operational importance to big companies but that is critically important for increasing the cost of NSA surveillance.

* The development and adoption of strong, modern elliptic curve cryptography in browsers (the Curve25519 CFRG recommendation has Adam Langley's name on it).

* TLS certificate pinning, which Google pioneered in Chrome, which not only drastically reduces browser susceptibility to CA-based attacks on TLS but also transforms the Firefox and Chrome installed base into a worldwide anti-spoofing surveillance system.

* EndToEnd, the Chrome Javascript implementation of PGP, the team for which includes Thai Duong, of BEAST, CRIME, and POODLE fame, who Google was smart enough to snap up.

* Years and years of the Chrome sandbox and runtime hardening, which has significantly driven up the cost of viable browser clientsides, which are probably the most important software security weapon in NSA's arsenal.

* Years and years and years of Chrome browser security work from people like Michel Zalewsky --- see things like "Notes On A Post-XSS World" for a taste of the security ideas that will be banal and commonplace 10 years from now but that people will forget Google funded.

* One of the industry's best organized large-scale fuzzing and bughunting operations, shaking out hundreds and hundreds of bugs in things like video and image codecs.

I think that first section in this plan could have been written more carefully. I do not see how it could have been written carefully and retain the sense of urgency that the rest of the document has. And that bothers and worries me.

Hey: on the other hand, maybe Google is just as happy with it as EFF is. After all, if they're setting a high bar for themselves, all the better if a bunch of other companies are required to clear that same bar. I know a fair bit about the technical work Google is doing, but virtually nothing about EFF's motives for phrasing things they way they do.
Will be accept entries from world wide? If yes then I will love too.
Less than a sibling called PHP though.
The insurance covers the riskiest part of their operation: hot wallets. And it's meant to convince people that it's a safe place to exchange money. Seems rather straight-forward to me.
Can you give me an example where this deflation worked as you described, where there was too much wealth and gold didn't provide enough money? I think it would be interesting to examine the policies that lead up to investments being worthless.

And also an example where Keynesian has been followed and 0% inflation was achieved by just going with a big enough stimulus.

From what I can see, out in the real world, the biggest practitioners of this theory are wracked with big growing systemic risks. At least those with large economic resources that allows them to gamble. China is doing this right now and when it pops, the Keynesians will be telling us how no one could have it seen it coming.

The poor countries that believe in wealth through currency manipulation end up defaulting on the loans required to play these games.

Meanwhile, there are plenty of examples where government focussed on a stable legal system and property rights. Switzerland, Singapore, Hong Kong.

And plenty that used to have these conditions but got wealthy enough for its politicians to being playing the artificial growth games, like Japan and the US, who are actively pissing away all of their advantages.

And your examples?
Is there any way to build this for Linux, or am I better off just using IHaskell?
Chill dude, I was being conversive. Your attitude makes me not even want to provide you with my own data now.
My 2 cents... In 2008 and 2009, when so many of my most talented friends were unemployed for the only time in their career, I observed, "It's a once in a lifetime opportunity to start a company. Better to be starting a firm when talent is plentiful and money is scarce than the other way around."

So what to do now that it's the other way around? (Independent of calling it a bubble, money is relatively more plentiful than talent than any time in the past 15 years)

An entrepreneur should take the money and use it to build talent. What's this mean? Be selective about money, get it from investors with as long a time horizon as possible, and make sure that it's enough to last a while. Then hire people with great potential who may be overlooked by the market. Use the money to grow them as they grow the company, and create an environment where they might want to stay.

If you're not that patient, just take the high valuations and use it to buy 1 or 2 superstars whose equity is underwater at Google.
I think you'll find there are few arguments to be made for the open-ness of the platform (except for the religious ones) when data export is central to the platform's reason for existsnce.

Github without distributed commits isn't based on git anymore, and the other stuff is ancillary (and also easily exportable)

designed to discourage GPL use

What the hell are you on about? From choosealicense:

The GPL (V2 or V3) is a copyleft license that requires anyone who distributes your code or a derivative work to make the source available under the same terms. V3 is similar to V2, but further restricts use in hardware that forbids software alterations.

Linux, Git, and WordPress use the GPL.

This is in the middle of the front page [1]. What is discouraging or inaccurate about this?

Furthermore, the license chooser under the new repo page has the GPL as the second friggin' option [2].

Acerbic? Yes, but I don't appreciate people peddling lies.

Some standard uuid libraries have weird not-very-random fallbacks when the RNG fails to initialize. It’s rare, but you can get strange stuff without realizing it. Better to use a real RNG and check error codes.
Read "Effective Go" on the Golang main page. Its a pretty good primer on how to document, naming conventions, and other things for your code.
Amazon SDE here. I'm not sure what internal infra you're talking about. Amazon's certainly isn't one of them.

And AWS, with its design by accretion, makes that an impossibility. Kubernetes by comparison is a paragon of clarity.
In doing this you are completely divorcing a people's fundamental belief system and heritage from them so that "people who don't subscribe to" the existence of that people's heritage, culture and belief system don't feel offended.

This is complete cultural appropriation and you should stop perpetuating it while making money off of it.
Cool: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SunPCi didn't knew such thing was developed.
In fact, the oil is now being trucked rather than piped. That's more polluting, but doesn't disturb the land, so... maybe they're pro-native-american-rights but not so environmental?

Or maybe their just hypocrites.
> So you're saying "this time is different." Let's see how that plays out.

Main difference from the past recessions is that today the main way to store money is index funds. In recessions people pump money into savings, ie into index funds, ie into the stock market making stocks value increase rather than fall. As long as people believe that index funds are a more stable currency than the dollar this will continue to be true in future recessions.
How would you describe someone like G.K. Butterfield, Mordecai Johnson, John Hope or Walter White then?
The app description mentions "one time purchase with no subscription".

If you are looking for a more feature-rich markdown editor may I suggest Drafts [1]. The free version is a very useful, feature rich Markdown editor and the paid subscription unlocks incredible automation functionality.

I don't need that, though, I will keep an eye on Writer and see how (a) what it costs and (b) what features it gets upgraded with.

the tesla bandwagon is being jumped on by mastercard.
Ha ha, is the author saying "preferentially ranking search results higher if they appear to have a recent date stamp" is how search engine businesses will collapse?

That seems awfully circumlocutious. It's interesting how the narrative has shifted from "SEO will kill knowledge" to "filter bubbles spread by hostile governments will kill knowledge" to something a little post-capitalist here like... "advertising will kill knowledge"?
Like with OP you are making a lot of assumptions about consensus. Things that don't have one: intellectual property is not an oxymoron, we need to incent people to create content, right to monetize has to include strict technical limitations. Not being burdened with resolving your problem does not mean one is necessary selfish; they might just not see it as a problem worth solving.
You can build your own image/rootfs

Imagine that you can build your rootfs is a docker container and export it to IMG
This is so so very true
The W3C gets 0 credit for any of the cool tech you're talking about. Basically all of the good work for browser standards gets done by the WHATWG which is essentially just the browser makers and a few other large and concerned tech companies. Every once and while the W3C copies and pastes the standards document that the WHATWG has sweated over, prints their name on it instead and says "Hey we made a new standards document! We are still relevant!"
I have 16GB of RAM on my work computer so my compiler can process hundreds of MB worth of source files into a fully functional program in less than 5 seconds. I have it on my home computer so I can run a fully simulated 3D world inside a videogame at 60FPS. I don't have it so some coder somewhere doesn't have to add lazy-loading to their file-syncing app.
This is kind of how I use Twitter, lol. I use it as a place to post a random thought, what I'm thinking about, what I'm doing, etc. I don't post much, but I've been trying to get in the habit of posting more.
Yes, but the data owner will need to provide the feedback in clear text.
I think the comparison was BLM protests to this “protest”, not all MAGA rally’s.
That wasn’t me, I did not suggest that. Though your choice of wording is horrendous and your understanding of the term “privilege” is ridiculously wrong and borderline humiliating. It is not a privilege if you earned it by hard work. I spent years, decades of my life learning languages, educating myself in tech, and now you are saying that I am more privileged than an average person because I am earning more? I don’t think so.
I may also alter the terms of this agreement at any time. Pray I do not alter them further.

It is happening. I had barely 5-6 contacts on Signal for the past 2 years. Suddenly half my contact list is there.

It won't be sudden but is is happening. And it is only going to be accelerated by the footgun behaviour going around on twitter and Facebook this week
Just a reminder that greater infectiousness is worse than greater lethality.

Say you have two variants, variant S-spreader and variant L-lethal.
S kills 1 in 100 people and has a doubling time of 3.5 days
L kills 2 in 100 people and has a doubling time of a week.

First week L kills twice as many people of S.
Week 2 they kill the same number of people.
Week 3 S kills twice as many people as L
Week 4 S kills 4x as many people as L.
Science as a whole. Wait and see.
Well, like every internet company in 99, there was SUN servers. There was a lone sun workstation that printed some of the shipping docs in latex. I believe that was left by Paul Barton Davis. By early 97, the website (Netscape) and database (Oracle) ran on DEC Alpha hardware. Peter is wrong about switching to Digital Unix because Sun had bad support. The switch happened for 64bit reasons.

There was almost a 24 hour outage of amazon.com because Digital Unix's AdvFS kept eating the oracle db files. Lots of crappy operating systems in the those days.
Then the deterrence might still be worth more than that?
