> Can't movements as important and big as Egypt still occur without anonymity?

How is that even a question. Of course governments target people they see a potential threat. History is full of examples of movements being suppressed to protect the established seats of power.

You don't even need to go all the way to Egypt; the FBI's former program known as COINTELPRO was specifically about targeting potential leaders who speak up before they can form a larger movement.

> trolling, bullying

Have you ever actually been targeted by a person or group engaging in active trolling, bullying, or harassment? I doubt you have, because reliable anonymity is one of the only defenses against the current weapon of choice used to harass people that dare to express their opinion online: "doxing"[1]. Without anonymity, a lot more people would be subject to death threats (including their address and other specific details), calls to their neighbors or employer with slanderous accusations, swatting[2] or worse.

However, the largest problem with insisting that communication must include real names is the chilling effect it has on groups like the usual racial minorities, LGBT people, or women. The entire concept of being "in the closet" is based on the fear that comes form knowing that speaking publicly in support of civil rights might risk sever harassment or even death.

I suggest watching Vi Hart's video[3] from last year. It's difficult to watch. I'm hoping it can give you a sense sense of scale about the problems that are the daily reality of many people. Thanks to anonymous communication over the internet some of these problems are finally being discussed. People in targeted minority groups finally have a way they can communicate without risking harassment or death. Do you really want to tell them that they need to take that risk or get back in the closet?

The death of reading is threatening the soul

The death of thinking is threatening the soul.

• Bill Gates reads 50 books a year.
• Mark Zuckerberg reads at least one book every two weeks.
• Elon Musk grew up reading two books a day.
• Mark Cuban reads for more than three hours every day.
• Arthur Blank, a co-founder of Home Depot, reads two hours a day.

Yup. He didn't get those factoids from reading books. Mayhaps he received these gems of wisdom from:

When I read an online article from the Atlantic or the New Yorker, after a few paragraphs I glance over at the slide bar to judge the article’s length. My mind strays, and I find myself clicking on the sidebars and the underlined links. Soon I’m over at CNN.com reading Donald Trump’s latest tweets and details of the latest terrorist attack, or perhaps checking tomorrow’s weather.

I have 20,000 books to the author's 5,000. I'm not kidding. SQL database provided on demand. # books don't matter so much, it's what you do with them.

Reading is a proxy for thinking. Reading is only useful for those eureka moments (now called "a-ha moments" -- I guess it's shorter?) and for information gain. A walk in the woods, a pithy tweet, an encouter (a dialog -- a communiation -- a discussion -- an interaction -- an intercourse) with another human (fucking) being can also provide that eureka moment.

Stop reading, start learning. The best education is observation and participation. I'm all for books, but if they ain't teaching us about how to solve our own problems, then fuck them books. Get the knowledge, get the power. But be conscious, be aware, pay attention, did you miss it? You missed it. That's okay, I did when I wrote it, but if you hash the previous paragraph (algorithm you'll have to figure out), you'll get 2 bitcoins. I hear they might still be worth something. I read that in a book.
Pretty cool! Still a lot of work on missing conferences, but hopefully that can self-correct if it becomes popular and organizers submit their conferences.

Most security conferences are missing. Black Hat, bssides (except canberra, apparently), defcon, toorcon, recon, usenix, chaos computer club congress, RSA.
An estimated 2.3 Billion people now own smartphones. That number is growing at about 10% per year. All those people have access to the sum of all human knowledge and the ability to educate themselves almost as well as (some would argue even better than) the students of the most expensive universities.

They can communicate with anyone else at almost zero marginal cost, and can sell products and services to basically anyone else on the planet. All because things keep getting cheaper.

That's the point of making things cheaper.

Sure, a consequence of that is that the founders and executives and financiers of Google, Samsung, Apple etc are wildly rich. And that means they can (and do) invest in new products and services to keep improving peoples' standard of living, as well as funding benevolent projects.

It's pretty amazing if you ask me.
It's more the way they did it, and continue to try to reset Edge to be default.

I'm talking about my users who can't work the shift key, they just click whatever is pinned to the task bar. Same with how Mail is now pinned by default, even though everyone uses web mail.

Any individual one of these wouldn't be too much of a concern, but together it seems suspicious.
There's nothing tricky going on. You should have things that are comparable to what your clients will pay you to build. Mine paid me for their startups, and my portfolio has multiple, complete startup-like prototypes.

> why don't we set society up so that you have to work less in the first place to earn a living

I think in practice this is very hard and would require modification of economic fundamentals e.g at a very broad level capitalism vs socialism.
Conspiracy theories on the left are prevalent. Anti-vaccination is the obvious one. There's plenty about GMOs and Monsanto. I had a health teacher in highschool who gave us an alternative "food pyramid" the only justification of why it was better being that it had been rejected by congress while the other one was accepted. She was obviously left-leaning and is where I'm getting most of these ideas. Anti nuclear power is another of hers.

I'm from Delaware, only recently moved. This whole bill seemed very vague to me. I've got a feeling this has something to do with the Wilmington stock exchange. Which has been kicking around for several years now [1].

Delaware makes a lot off the fact it incorporates a large number of companies. Allowing a stock exchange with block chain technology. Then providing complete audit history of each stock share, it seems plausible. Add in Wilmington houses rather large offices for Chase, WSFS, Wilmington Trust, Bank of America, Barclays, and maybe still T&D Bank. Essentially there are a lot of banks headquarted in northern Delaware. Several of which I think are starting, or have rumored to start on block chain technology.

Delaware despite it's size has a pretty good tech system in the government. It's not a tech hub by any stretch. But Capital One when I interviewed there was doing some innovative things.

The problem I see with those physicists is that they make many claims on the barest of evidence or they selectively choose the evidence and ignore other evidence that conflicts with their models. In addition, they seem to ignore Occam's Razor, but that may only be a perception of mine.

Everyone does this in some form or fashion, but I see it happening with some aplomb in some of the sciences. These days, I treat any announcements of ground breaking levels put out by professional scientists with a large truck load of salt until they can provide very strong and reproducible evidence to support their conjectures. This is a pity since the scientific method has worked well over a number of centuries to increase our understanding of the universe around us.

I have seen a reaction increasingly arise against science as the years have gone by. Most of this due to the non-science philosophies and beliefs being touted by those scientists as being "proven" by their "science".

I used to believe in evolution but due to the experimental evidence being presented during the 70's and 80's, particularly in the various genetic experiments, I came to a quite different opinion. As the years and decades have gone by, the evidence is mounting that the evolutionary model as propagated today is nothing more than a religious dogma. Religious wars are an anathema to learning about the universe around us. YMMV on that one.

Experiments never show causation. The caution comes from interpretation of the data, which varies between scientist to scientist. You could say the additional experiments they did were not sufficient evidence but the proper response should be a suggestion of a new experiment that would convince you rather than saying "correlation is not causation ".

I'm worried / interested in what happens when Amazon starts in Australia. At the moment, I can get a limited selection of products delivered here in about a week and a half, often at a saving of 25-50% from the local price. Other things aren't even sold here - I think the last thing I encountered was trying to find a 4K HDMI switch - only available on Amazon US. I wonder whether my available selection will increase or decrease when Amazon "officially" starts here.

Sweden has very restrictive laws around alcohol, eg taxation, where, how and when it can be sold. The purpose of this is to prevent people from falling into addiction (hurting themselves), as that would eventually lead to them getting unemployable, more prone to sickness and in general be a pita for people around them and an increased cost for the whole society. Whether that works or not is another topic but that is what those laws are designed for.

Many countries, UK and Denmark for example, also have penalty tax on sugar and fat to prevent prevent from getting fat (protecting people from themselves) as it increases health care cost.

You're missing one big element of what books can teach far more readily than a tweet, or an instagram, which you seem to think are the equivalent - empathy.

Only through the act of imagining a narrator or character's emotional state can you enjoy a book, and doing so brings one to identify with or at the very least understand better the circumstances that individual faces.

Yes you can do this face to face, or by living a life that might be represented in a novel, but literature is a far more efficient way to broaden experience.

Books are not purely about learning facts, figures, dates and fates.
OP here.

The thread by a person who had no network and needed to find work immediately hit home for me (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14842684). I have been out of work before, and understand the importance of having a network and portfolio. But I haven't really gotten around to building them.

This service is something I need to help me get off my butt, and it might help some others too.

In the beginning, it will only remind people once a month to work on building their network, portfolio pieces, CV, etc.

Later, I plan to add features to hold people more accountable, so that they follow through on their intentions.

Would this be something you use? How can I make it useful for you? Any feedback will be greatly appreciated!
