You can load images on an as-needed basis in mail. Generally, any email that is solely images and has no text is not going to be worth looking at.

I can't see how defining 'substantive' images could ever work. The other issue is that email clickable links are often unique and tracked, so images are unfortunately only part of the problem here.

Zuckerberg has done all these things within a relatively short period of time:

* Says he’s no longer an atheist, "questioned" religious matters, he broke through his skepticism and now believes religion to be “very important.”

* Restructuring of Facebook stock trough the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative. In the SEC filing it says that he can take a leave of absence from Facebook and still retain voting control of the company if he goes to work for the government.

* Hired a top Democratic campaign manager David Plouffe into the iniative. Plouffe was Obama's campaign manager.

* Hired top Republican campaign manager Ken Mehlman into the iniative. Mehlman is a former George W. Bush campaign manager and RNC chairman.

* Promised to visit all 50 states and meet people.

* Hires a former top adviser to President Barack Obama and the chief strategist for Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign.

Yes, but if security and privacy should be a given, why would you consider it a shame for a company to assert those values while their competitor don't ?

I'm sorry, but blaming Apple in this case makes absolutely no sense to me, and I'm definitely not pro Apple usually. In this case, it's the rest of the world that is to blame for not caring about privacy and security as much as Apple/at all, not the other way around

Thanks for the link. I'll admit that I'm not an expert in IPO-finance, and I'm surprised that Andrew Ross Sorkin and Matt Levine are saying such diametrically opposing things. There's probably some nuance to their disagreement that I'm missing.
Sadly, being the commodity and not the customer, even though it directly affects our lives, and in spite of it being a private company, we can't do anything about it. And is the hope then that Equifax will go out of business? Are we under the assumption that either of the other two are better, or are they just the same, and they haven't had their day in the spotlight yet?
If a customers pays Apple $1000 for a device and uses that device to create valuable data which cannot be migrated to another app, they may expect their device to continue providing the functionality for which it was purchased. It still contains their data + app. Customers want access to their DATA, not apps, not devices - those are mediating tools which change over time.

If Apple wants to force apps to do something, they can force developers to create interoperable data that can be migrated without the developer's consent or continued existence. Until then, Apple has more resources than Microsoft and Linux, which both provide backward compatibility for old apps on new platforms. This is a solved problem.

Why penalize iOS platform customers who were the earliest adopters and had the highest chance of creating data which is now orphaned in abandoned-but-functional offline apps? Let's not get into the Apple's mis-steps on the App Store, which is what caused many iOS developers to go out of business or stop supporting apps.

>Right, give them a desk and a book.

> Yeah don't force me to socialize pls.

Most people like socializing and benefit from it (which in turn benefits society), you can't possibly ask for a system that caters to the few who don't like it. The "desk and book" may work when you're in college but it definitely doesn't work for children. Even in college you have professors/lecturers to guide you (and check your progress).

I think you're just making general assumptions based on your own experience and abilities. Not everyone is like you (or me for that matter, I too prefer reading a book than being lectured). I personally know very few people who enjoy educating themselves (let alone children and teenagers)

The only serious alternatives through history are private tutoring and homeschooling. The former requires wealth, the later thoroughly educated parents with free time. They just don't scale to millions whichever way you look at it

Speaking of that.. I looked again at the reference documentation and the "hello world" (Fizzbuzz). It feels like I'm playing a game of Magic the Gathering on another world, with different physics and vocalizations I cannot do.

{$gasp p/seed q/seed}: form a gate with burnt sample.

Uhm.. What? I know I'm reading words. But part of it makes me feel like Im also in Game of Thrones. Iron Gate, wet one-armed core, and a burnt sample?

And their demo (Fizzbuzz) is just as illegible. https://urbit.org/docs/hoon/demo/ . I get programming. I know there's concepts in different langs that need understood. But one thing I know is that the demo should be easy to dip your toes in.

I'm arguing for codes, not against them. My comment about accepting consequences that might suck was in relation to the absurd hypothetical about allowing the government to come inspect my underwear. I really can't think of a situation where my tighty whiteys could result in the death of a firefighter.

I think the person I was arguing with was trying to find out if there was any line that the government could cross that I would think is unreasonable and of course there is. Building codes, as they are today, aren't anywhere near that line though.

That is true but why the level of bureaucracy in the middle? Why not just give the states the money directly and bypass the federal government?

Just because it is that way doesn't mean it should be.

An obvious answer, though not satisfying, is that some states are too poor for that.

The idea that women should be subservient and avoid conflict at all costs would be an example of "toxic femininity". It's a mirror image of behaviors that come under "toxic masculinity", though, so I'm not sure if the term has any utility.

>Because those are two unrelated fields, and one is distinctly not productive.

I beg to differ: they are both about solving problems; one set of problems (setting up development environment) is strictly easier in terms of cognitive load and actual technical ability than the other (compiler development). If you cannot solve problems from the first set, you simply cannot solve problems from the last.

>And comments (from current contributors no less):

Likewise, there are comments from different contributors, who claim that the current approach is better than GitHub:

>Agree with @ianlancetaylor that Gerrit does provide a better way to review patches.

>I've worked in some places where we've migrated from GH Pull Requests to Gerrit for the reason that GH Pull Requests (until very very recently) were not ideal for a formal review process. Even with the recent changes, the current PR system in GH does not manage revisions of a changeset well. For example, Gerrit includes the commit message as part of a review which is arguably the most important part of keeping a clean and detailed history.

Arguably, there are more people who are in favour of the Gerrit, rather than GitHub, even among those, who have tried both systems.

> Equifax is the oldest of the Big Three credit reporting bureaus, and it got its start as a private investigator in the late 1800s. A client — a business or a bank — would ask it about a consumer, and it would go about digging up dirt on things like marital problems and convictions. That client would then pay it for its services.

> This questionable business model raised eyebrows in the 1960s, when the companies were still compiling information on people’s “moral character” such as affairs or drinking problems. At the time, the reports weren’t available at all to the subjects themselves. That changed with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, which was signed in 1970. But even that reform put virtually no oversight on the bureaus’ practices.

As if there aren't a bunch of companies trying to do exactly this with a combination of tracking cookies, browser history, purchase history, and ML.

Separately, from the article (emphasis mine):

> The United States government is, of course, not impervious to data breaches, nor does it have a perfect track record of fending them off. In 2015, it announced that hackers had stolen “sensitive information” on 21.5 million people. But the government is at least accountable to public pressure. Equifax never will be, even under the tightest regulation.

Equifax may not have to change anything as there's a very real chance it goes bankrupt because of this. It's not just from the cost of lawsuits from consumers. There's a longer term cost of businesses not wanting to deal with them.

The risk of that happening to one of the other big credit reporting agencies is the biggest driver for them to clean up their act. The threat to their businesses is real and I'd imagine their internal responses will be as well. I also think regardless of what they do it's only a matter of time till they have a breach as well. You only have to screw up once.

> Credit bureaus have proved to be complete failures at safeguarding the public.

Nearly all companies are complete failures at data security. There's not special about credit bureaus here. They just happen to have a lot of sensitive data on a lot of people and thus are a hot target. As an example, we've had plenty of breaches in the health insurance industry as well.

Perhaps the best approach would be a "too big to fail" limit on the bureaus. Put a cap on the total size (in accounts / people covered) of a credit bureau. The libertarian in me is screaming at the thought of something like that but at least it has the advantage of limiting breaches to a max number of people.

> Let’s demand we get our data back.

It was never your data.
What I'm also interested in is how much money do lawsuits like these cost.
Both companies have large amounts of cash, so this isn't one of those cases where the one with the most money wins, but I do expect both of them to spend a lot.
The more I think about this, the more I'm convinced it'll work. Somehow making the map truly dynamic by changing the scale according to the time it takes to reach the destination will be helpful.

This is true, but it omits the extremely relevant third case.

When a private company has a massive failure that impacts someone other than its customers, then the impacted parties have no recourse whatsoever.

You're not an Equifax customer. Banks and big businesses are, and they don't really have a strong incentive to punish this sort of behavior.

Not to dismiss concerns about terminal performance, but if you need a terminal to keep up at ten gigabytes per second of data, I question your goals* . How can you seek in that much data? Will you page-up or scroll for hours to find what you need? Past 1GB in the buffer, even iTerm2s search functionality lags out painfully, but . . . so does grep, on a file that big.

There are other aspects of terminal performance that are very important, and you may have meant to point towards those, but as it is this comment just reads as bikeshedding. "Performance is (a|the most important) feature" refers to performance in areas that matter.

The rationale for calling taxation theft is the compulsory nature of taxation - which applies to states as well as the federal government. If taxation is theft, it doesn't cease to be theft when you like what the thieves spend your money on.

You're leaving out a ton of complexity present in ocaml, including first-class mutable references and all their consequences (including broken polymorphism under eta-reduction), order-dependent evaluation, side effectful imports, etc.. Extensions are also common in production ocaml code.

I agree the typeclass stuff in Haskell can get complicated, but the more abstruse typeclass features are used about as much as the similarly abstruse ocaml object system. It's usually quite straightforward, just like ocaml modules are usually (but not always) quite straightforward.
