Xiaomi don't appear to market in the West, but that doesn't mean you can't buy their stuff from the usual array of websites. Which appear to list this phone.

> too accurate in your advertising is like delving into the uncanny valley

This isn't speculation - it's standard practice now in some companies to try to avoid "scaring" the customer with something that reveals how much modern advertising looks like a stalker. A well known example is Target when they discovered[1] they could predict pregnancies very early and very accurately:

At which point someone asked an important question:
How are women going to react when they figure out
how much Target knows?

“If we send someone a catalog and say, ‘Congratulations
on your first child!’ and they’ve never told us they’re
pregnant, that’s going to make some people uncomfortable,”
Pole told me. “We are very conservative about compliance
with all privacy laws. But even if you’re following the
law, you can do things where people get queasy.”

The article then tells the story of the time an angry father stormed into Target after the company had sent ads for maternity clothing and nursery furniture to his high-school age daughter. He was angry what he thought was an attempt to coerce his daughter, but later apologized when he discovered that Target was right.

We now live in a world where it businesses can infer significant attributes like pregnancy from subtle changes in their buying patterns. When stalker-like behavior is built into modern business models, the smarter businesses realize that most people will hate you if you act like a creepy spy.

> It's all in your head, for better or worse.

It originates from the head but the impact is on the whole body impacting the HPA and other hormonal systems. And later whatever is controlled by them e.g. body fat. And once it impacts the body additional distress signals may be generated there. Healing obviously needs to take into account the head but that may not be enough.

Prevention and early counter measures are very critical!

Fill a request whenever you need more upload. There are many low hanging fruits for 25-75GB and $15-35. Requests are "high value" uploads that don't rely on you seeding to multiple people, just uploading and claiming the reward. Very low effort and sometimes the requester even links you to where you can purchase the material.

Requested uploads hold more value to the community (or at least a single member) than {random local band that had two shows and gave out poorly mixed CD's one time}.

Do learn some of the native language of your target country before you apply. Having that on your resume and being able to handle small talk in an interview demonstrates that you are serious about staying in the new country for some time.

There is lots of good advice on the Internet on how to learn a foreign language fast and it does not include "take a course" because the rigid structure of courses impedes more than helps. Just do it, practice it every day in every way that you can, starting today. No excuses. EVERY DAY. If you have nobody else to talk to then talk to yourself in the foreign language. This is brain training and requires practice. And just like compound interest, working for an hour or so every day pays off big in language learning.

Not really "more objective." They measure different things. Michelin is a rating of quality, these are mere popularity. And not even general popularity... all the ones I saw seemed to trend a bit on the pricier side which makes sense given the bias towards people who Uber to dinner.

So the Uber rankings are basically "trendy restaurants on the pricier side near you."
For Chrome OS, all you need to do is enable developer mode to fix that. It's a supported feature in the OS and documented in detail on Google's website.
An example: I have a website and I don't need to know the IP addresses, browser info or referrer urls of visiting User Agents. So allowing Apache to log that information would be "collecting too much data".

Thus, Apache is configured with the following LogFormat[0] which associates an explicit format[1] with a nickname (here, "essential"):-

LogFormat "%{%FT%T%z}t \"%r\" %>s %B %D %L" essential

and in VirtualHost contexts, a CustomLog[2]:-

I miss the small familiarities when abroad. Small things like the style of windows, houses, roads, smells. Also, national forests.

Bigger things: being a native speaker, knowing how all the institutions (schools, churches, etc.) work. Never having to learn subtle stuff about how to interact in this or that rare situation. Being a citizen of the place you live. Being near family.

Leaving your home country has a lot of drawbacks, no matter where you are from or where you are going to.
I take Facebook video view numbers about as seriously as the Google+ numbers from a few years ago. Remember that monster growth in users month after month that didn't really exist? Feels like the same thing.
I used to think that until smartphones became inexpensive ~3 years ago. Now twitter and facebook have stupidity poured into them rather than the people learning from it.
If it is early on, do a needs analysis call separately from the demo by a week or so. In that time and if the lead qualifies as worthwhile (adding 1+ months to runway), build whatever extra feature or screen they mentioned needing but you know you do not offer. Or three if such is the case. And then give them something that meets their need 100% during the demo and try to close them then.

Yeah, and sometimes it's in the actual news. For example, I just saw an investigated a tweet from election day claiming that voters in Chesapeake had to be escorted by the police due to intimidation by Trump supporters, and found an local news article debunking it:

http://wavy.com/2016/11/08/police-no-reports-of-voter-intimi...

And right below that, an IBT page repeating it verbatim without investigation:

http://www.ibtimes.com/voter-fraud-2016-where-election-day-r...

It's not uncommon these days for news organisations to lazily use Twitter as a source in this way. Actually contacting the police force which had supposedly escorted voters would involve actual reporting.
> I mean, if we created a new distributed system, and grandfathered the old one, how can the current incumbents stop it?

That's a weird way of putting it. Anyone can create DNS roots based on any hierarchy they want, no-one will stop you from doing that. The meaningful question is how do you get anyone to use your fancy new roots?
What I don't understand is why people think FB lying about metrics helps them. Aren't these people keeping track of sales? Those should show that if FB was getting all these views they aren't worth much as their sales didn't go up.

Course the clients might be running several campaigns at once and can't tell what is driving sales. If only they knew what half of advertising dollars worked!

One of the big problems with solar-system wide internet is latency. Various protocols assume that there is some upper bound on latency, IP itself assumes that end-to-end latency is less than about 4 minutes (which is'n true for mars at least half of the time), with typical TCP/IP stack implementations requiring significantly less (5 seconds seems to be common requirement for TCP to meaningfully work, 15 seconds is quoted in RFC 791), things like SSL/TLS are latency sensitive enough that multi-hop terrestrial wireless connections can be a problem.

Even when all these technical problems are solved (eg. by replacing the whole IPv4/6 with something completely different) there still remains the problem of the user experience completely changing.
I know, you could also just put {} around quotation marks and would work. My and parent's point was that it will probably flood MS's support channels, if you just force every cmd user into PS.

Language is also something to look into, and varies quite a lot across Europe (both the languages, and how common multilingualism is). You can get hired in tech with only English fluency in many countries, but how easily varies, and how easily you can carry on daily life varies even more. For example you can get many jobs in both Copenhagen and Berlin speaking only English, but in Copenhagen you can also do almost everything else in English (government agencies all speak English, most forms are bilingual Danish/English, banks and doctors' offices all do English, etc.), whereas in Germany the civil service, and even things like doctors, generally expect you to interact with them in German. Not that you shouldn't also learn some Danish in Denmark, but how critical it is to quickly become fluent in the national language(s) varies a lot between countries.

>“Anyone who claims that automated spam accounts that tweeted about the U.S. election had an effect on voters’ opinions or influenced the national Twitter conversation clearly underestimates voters and fails to understand how Twitter works,” said Nick Pacilio, a Twitter spokesman.

The general approach to propaganda is to analyze the target audience and look for vulnerabilities (messages that might work) and susceptibilities (the effectiveness of a given message.)

The research link from politicalbots.org looks like a first-order pass using hashtags as a proxy for actual content, which is usually harder to analyze in an automated fashion. Understandable, but prone to errors, such as using pro-candidate hashtags with anti-candidate content.

But getting to the heart of the matter, it's hard to say how effective computational propaganda was in this election without more detailed testing and analysis.

Generally, a political campaign aims to do three things -- 1) motivate their followers to vote; 2) convert undecideds; 3) demoralize opponents. I could see bots doing 1) and 3) pretty well, but 2) not so much.

Of course, a well-designed experiment could prove me wrong.

It probably doesn't help that 'degree'[1] isn't worth much but with 5+ years experience I feel like I am competent. Maybe just not enough or in the right tech.

It's more lightweight than Django until you add packages for all of the components you need to build a production-grade app. To get what Django has out of the box requires a half-dozen packages, and even with that Flask-Admin is super primitive compared to what Django Admin provides. I try to like Flask, and I currently run my small personal site in it, but almost every project I start in Flask, I end up rewriting in Django.

As far as building APIs goes, Django Rest Framework provides so much. I find myself reinventing a lot when I use Flask vs Django + DRF. Just my 2¢.

The obvious problem is the one created by sites which simply fabricate "news" for clicks. Those should be easy to tamp down because little they do is actual news in any way. It's all fabrication.

On the other hand, there is lots of biased media, for good and for ill, but that's not the same as fabricating news and I imagine these will not be the targets for "censorship" among the news platforms.

I think the NYT and others in this case are lashing out on seeing their influence wane and not being able to influence their readership with what they believe is the basis for a "righteous" political lifestyle as well as their apparent impotency in shaping political thought.

I'm with the earlier commenter noting the code of ethics from IEEE & ACM. I think there are aspects of human life not being addressed in either their set or yours, though.

What's missing:

- minimizing attention required

- preserving human connection

- digital addiction prevention, detection, mitigation

- ethical software that knows how we're feeling (we need to start thinking about this one now before the tech becomes ubiquitous)

The problem I see with each of these is that we have very few design processes for addressing them, so asking people to focus on them leads to continued naive harm due to a lack of understanding. Most social media serves to connect humans, but actual human connection is poorly maintained through it.

I'm working on a scientific theory of design that combines neuroscience with mindfulness & design thinking. The list I mentioned above are the core problems in trying to tackle with it.

I'm curious...what are your thoughts on all this as they apply to the manifesto?
You are asking the right questions.
If I perceive an imminent likelihood of an attempt, I'll generally start trying to get a location from them - it's not subtle, they'll know. Sometimes people will give it, other times they resist for whatever reason. For those that resist I will process that feeling that they have and then try again. They may even ask if I'll contact police, in which case I can't lie to them. Ultimately I may _never_ get a location, or I'll have an extremely ill-defined location - it's always up to the caller if that is information they want to give.
Generation one would be almost completely occupied finding the most efficient way to archive as much of that knowledge as possible, IMO... I'd imagine it might take a dozen generations or so, or more, depending on how much could be archived before that first generation passed away and took that experience with it. I see apprenticeships rampant!

> I have however a much tougher time agreeing if you also think that powershell could come even close to bash/zsh when working from the shell, in both speed of use (and as you said) support.

At the end of the day, both bash/zsh are "dumb" shells, they don't have the introspection capabilities Powershell has regarding commands they execute. That's both a benefit (they're flexible and you can throw anything at them) but also a disadvantage (they can't really help you much out of the box when you want to run a command; they are only able to help you regarding things they find out from the kernel, such as files, but not arbitrary info from the commands themselves).

The reasons that bash/zsh are faster and better supported boil down to history: tens of years of production usage by millions of people. As a result there's this cottage industry of tips and tricks, autocompletion scripts, etc. that makes bash and zsh usable.

I'm willing to bet that with a similar amount of man-hours poured into its ecosystem Powershell would beat both of them.

But as I said, we live in the real world and both bash/zsh are faster and a bit more robust than Powershell.
