If they hadn't deprecated the old extensions yet, the newest version would be pretty much the same as using the old version. This way, some people who don't rely on those extensions (I believe half of the users don't even run an extension at all?) can benefit from those improvements now, and you'll be able to do so later.
> i probably drive more than bike, depends on the weather and somewhat the mood i'm in

A lot of bikers won't bike when the weather reaches a certain point (too cold, too much rain). This means that even if you build infrastructure for bikes, you're still going to have to build just as much throughput for other modes of transportation as you did before (they have to handle situations where no one is biking).
If we start screaming "something must be done!", we'll be very unhappy with what actually gets done.

There are so many people who are at least partly to blame when something like this happens. Bob the engineering manager who committed a quick but insecure fix years ago, Shirley the intern who didn't know what she was doing, Joe the manager who hired Bob and Shirley in the first place, Mike the manager at the company supplying third party software that ends up being exploited, etc.

The worst outcome is that companies outsource all their IT security and therefore responsibility to companies that disappear as soon as there is a problem. But if we rush too quickly to impose criminal sanctions, that will be the likely outcome.

The better solution is to work this one out as a society. Stop relying on things like SSNs and maiden name as "security", and stop building enormous silos of unnecessary data.

I cannot help but witness the effects of traffic calming:

> a taxi trip in 2017 took 17% longer than the same trip in 2009.

> The same regression applied to Citi Bikes shows no such slowdown over time, in fact Citi Bikes got slightly faster.

Obviously when you dedicate more street space from cars towards bikes, bikes get faster and cars get slower. The article goes to mention this, but also downplays it.

What the article seems to ignore on a major scale is the effect of traffic calming, or traffic impeding. By civilizing traffic to the appropriate rules and procedures via hardscapes, you make vehicle travel more unbearable and a test of patience. If the intentions behind doing this weren't derived from anti-car sentiments, I could respect this move. But Janet Sadik-Khan is a bicycling enthusiast and after her appointment, car travel became really bad.

My masters thesis had strict formatting requirements, and I bikeshedded the hell out of building my own LaTeX template in part because I needed an excuse to distract myself from... writing my thesis. And of course there were some ambiguities in the formatting spec that resulted in me needing to track down an advisor to resign a page in my thesis before she boarded a plane to Europe.

If I had it to do over again, I'd have spent the time I spent bikeshedding doing something more properly restorative such as exercising or video games or... anything else other than grokking the internals of my home-built LaTeX template :-)

Then again, if there are no formatting requirements, a digital version will suffice, and writing Pollen rather than your thesis brings you joy, then go for it.

> Some teachers recognize this, which is why they are anti-tech.

And that is exactly why educators need education about edtech.

Edtech exists in many forms. The YC list will give you a snapshot of that. Most of it are actually supportive rather than replacing the teaching role itself. You cannot compare to other industries like manufacturing because they are vastly different.

IMO it's a bit unhealthy for educators to be technophobic. The current students are from the tech generation, and most likely appreciate if their teachers could show more digital fluency. And yes, there are so many good and bad edtech tools out there, but the point is they can be pick-n-mixed to make their jobs easier.

> In some class rooms I can simply use the bachelors-bearing teacher rather than the masters-bearing teacher.

All the good teachers I know are not defined by their qualification, rather the passion, idealism and talent that they give. I had a high school physics teacher with a doctorate and he was not too great at explaining concepts. I also have a maths teacher friend with 3rd class honours in her degree, but is currently one of the most popular teachers in her school.

Other than Montessori's, most teachers are actually not that adverse to tech. But I think a basic digital training is needed. At the very least, learn how to find resources and pull them together. Learn how to use basic software, like rudimentary game-makers. Learn how flipped classrooms work, to design better homeworks and classroom sessions. Learn how peer-learning works, to encourage sharing ideas and working as teams.

There's so many ideas to make learning more exciting, with more meaningful interactions. Edtech is not a major threat, it can be a sort of freedom.

Theyve built a whole development model reliant on extensions (Test Pilot). They’ve made tremendous progress on enhancing the extensions API.

I agree. It's very difficult to get a government to pass a 'common sense law' given the myriad influences of different alliances, lobbyists, special interests, etc. that seem to corrupt just about any bill that goes before Congress, no matter how well-founded it may be at the very beginning.

I'd also much rather have government under-react than over-react. (The former has a lot more flexibility)

I've done a little walking in Toronto, never biked. The streetcars' recessed tracks in the road look like a nightmare.

I'm sure they're easy to cross perpendicularly, but riding longitudinally with them and getting your tire into a crack could end very badly. If you have to go through an intersection where streetcars turn and the tracks snake all over, it would be hard to ensure you're always crossing them perpendicularly.

Do you ride on those streets, or somewhere more bike-friendly? (I suppose a fat tire bike might have no problem with those road features, and such bikes are getting more popular with cyclists who commute through the winter).

The problem with your comment is a sweeping generalisation since you have no idea why many people who use Uber do not prefer public transport, it's the same problems as statements such as 'Mexicans are...', 'Muslims are...' etc.

> Uber is a completely unessential service, that its popularity just capitalizes on people's laziness imo

Is a computer essential? No? A programmer would disagree.

Is guitar essential? No? A musician would disagree.

Just because it's not essential to you doesn't mean it's the same for everyone.

> Because yes that's what I'm implying but I phrased it not in a "universal truth" way but more in a "personal impression about an issue"

Ok, so let's take:

"Uber is a completely unessential service, that its popularity just capitalizes on people's laziness"

vs

"Personally, I'd say that Uber is a completely unessential service, that its popularity just capitalizes on people's laziness, but opinions may differ"

Which one seems like an universal truth vs an opinion to you?

Even when you qualify with your "death toll" litmus test, you ensnare many who enjoy some fame and respect depending on one's worldview. A few names that come to mind include Ayers and Dohrn, Chelsea Manning, Mumia Abu-Jamal, OJ Simpson, etc. Each of those is considered a hero to some, and murderer to others.

When hysterics and the worst rhetoric are reserved for a Jewish lawyer (Ben SHAPIRO) who is loud, direct, and otherwise harmless, one begins to recognize that the knives are primarily reserved for those who provide the best opportunity to score political points or for those who present the greatest threat to undermining one's point-of-view.

And that's why I find the moans about "divisiveness" and whatnot to simply be more political theater.

The only strategy I've found to maintain civil discussion is to separate the person from the topic. And I don't do it for the sake of the discussion or the other person, I do it for the sake of my own mental well-being.

Postgres has the BLOB functionality, but also has the JSONB data type that not only stores structured JSON data efficiently, but also allows indexing on the contents of that data.

Ah, yes, the age-old complaint that a car driver should be able to run a forklift with no practice.

I don't think Unixen should strive for 'user friendliness'. Hacking in "Do you really want to" dialogs would (a) be contrary to all expectations developed over a long time, (b) break a lot of existing software, (b) annoy the bloody hell out of everyone, and (d) not solve anything, because those dialogs don't prevent mistakes.

Not all systems need to converge, and Unix has been a professional toolchain since the beginning. You're expected to know something about it, just like you don't let kids run plasma cutters.
It sucks that you are probably correct.

My own biggest issue with data retention is not that these companies collect all this data (they need to for their business models to work) but that they keep all of it, forever, regardless of whether it could possibly still be relevant to any business purpose (such as chat conversions from a decade ago).
By nature of it being an accident, it seems hard to control whether it's a minor scrape or more serious injury. In any case, every person has their own risk tolerance -- hard to say what is objectively correct -- and subjectively it's too high for me.
you obviously have not used databases very much if you think you can join 2 billion row tables on a key that is not indexed in a reasonable amount of time.
Any Dutch old enough to remember when Amsterdam was full of cars and almost zero bikes ?

I wonder how the transition went and what effects were ?

I was mind wandering the other day:

- biking is less stressful than driving [1]

- promotes human contact

- promotes prolonged activity

- has very low cost

- almost zero carbon emission (keep breathing people)

- allows more capacity / density in urban environments

But it's all bedroom speculation so if anyone can give his own experience.

Two points:

There's nothing wrong with using the CNAME if you're only serving comments off that domain.

Also, I'm pretty sure you can regex adblocking DNS entries, so you could block on comments.. pretty easily with minimal casualties. You'd have to intentionally randomize it to bypass adblockers... Which will probably get your domain listed as a badhost by most peers.

(Smarter adblockers would check for CNAMEs and IP blocks, but let's not ecalate the arms race for no reason.)

You present a fallacy. No, a rational company with accountability for its data doesn't outsource their IT security or let the intern access production. They take their job seriously and prevent something like this from happening by building security into their architecture.

I have worked for companies that recognize they are liable for protecting the data they hold, and that it only takes one breach for trust to be destroyed. We spent countless hours hardening, compartmentalizing, and monitoring our infrastructure. The nihilistic implication that nothing can be done is maddening.
