Comcast and TWC did that literally all the time.
I can't back this up with a specific website link, but I have anecdotal evidence. When they tried to merge a couple of years ago a Comcast exec said in one interview that the move wouldn't affect consumers and isn't something intended to incite "anticompetitive" behavior because TWC and Comcast already do not compete.
Ever noticed how a city is EITHER a Comcast or TWC city, and not both?

See, that sounds innocuous enough. Yet, this essay strikes a chord with me as delineating a real and serious problem.

Best way I can explain why is an anecdote. The other day, someone asked if anyone could recommend a book on JS, and someone else suggested "Javascript: the good parts" by Douglas Crockford. The following exchange occurred:

A: Oh, not Crockford, he's a sexist.

B: Really? I hadn't heard, what'd he do?

A: Ah, I forget.

Turns out, the accusations against Crockford were (as far as I can tell) pretty weak and largely abandoned, but most people never read about that, they just saw the initial salvo and took it as gospel. That's where we are right now - we have gotten to the point where we take accusations of bias seriously, but not yet the point where we always make them that way. We have the power to destroy the careers of bad people, but not yet the responsibility to use it wisely or sparingly. Right now, the result of that is an understandable reticence to speak frankly about controversial topics and to hash out ideas in public, which is what the essay is describing.
well you can use it without the keyboard, or with an iMessage app if you are on iOS.

unfortunately full access is the only way to make image pasting work. Bitmoji and all other apps that utilize this mechanic do the same thing.

For what it's worth, Apple would brutalize us if we were offloading customer keystrokes to our servers or something like that.

Facebook has lost ground for genuine social interaction.
Facebook is more serious stuff such as life announcements for new job, grad/college acceptance, engagement to their significant other, uploading a vacation photo as their profile pic in Grand Canyon as a DSLR, etc.. Everything feels so "official" and "serious"

Snapchat is low-stakes and more playful for throw-away stuff in people's day-to-day life.

He saying that is the reason why it's going to take years; because their DNS names will be pointing to the same IPs forever and not move over to the cloud based servers.

It would of been funnier if you put a finite number, like TTL 3 years.
Don't forget that ISP's have been buying up media companies and vice versa, this hasn't always been the case. We now have a situation where huge amounts of media have moved from traditional networks (cable, UHF, satellite etc) to the internet. This makes it incredibly appetizing to own the networks being used and offers a huge financial incentive to prioritize your own goods over others.

Factor in the way that corporations have been operating over the last decades (shareholder value is the number 1 priority) and you really do have a recipe for disaster for the consumer and small businesses.

Global Entry Bans Travelers: Suspected Muslim Ban
I have a 2017 loaded iMac, i7 (TDP 90W), Radeon 580 (TDP 150W). Fans etc, abound.

It's certainly not the same, but the built in screen definitely does not consume 200W, and though I can't determine the raw number, going from 'dimmest' to 'brightest' increases power draw 70W.

Guess what size PSU all of the above comes with? 310W.

We shall see. I actually really like the iMac Pro, and would enjoy having one, I don't want to see it fail, I'm just struggling to see how you're getting more than three times the heat dissipation load in what they say is the same 'body size'.
Yes. You can talk to people in Beijing, especially college students, about these issues and more. One of my friends is an ethnic minority in China and talked about these issues with Han Chinese folk with no negative consequences. Many young people in China are also ready to talk about LGBT issues. There is no problem.

As long as you don't try to subvert the government or anything, you can talk about it.
"Some cities / municipalities have signed agreements for monopoly rights to a telephone or cable provider. Many (but not all) of them can be worked around by simply not selling telephone or TV service."

Isn't it ironic that the only way for a startup ISP to get around the local monopoly agreement is to not provide services which are regulated by the FCC?

Yet somehow, Google, Amazon, and Facebook have convinced most young people that FCC regulation of ISPs is a good idea.

The sad part is, the only thing between a mass of young voters and 1984-style internet is just 3 more years of Trump/Pai, who most of them hate. Hopefully the FTC's renewed authority over "information service" can be demonstrated for the virtue it is before it's too late.

The same FCC that got rid of the net neutrality rules has the ability to make a rule that preempts any state level neutrality rules.
Yet Russia took Soviet Union embassies. Even those that belonged to other countries before USSR annexed them. As well as grandfathered USSR seat in UN security council.

Kaliningrad was also given to Soviet Union Even though it was attached to Russian Federation to work around this. If Russia ain't Soviet Union successor, Kaliningrad should be no man's land or returned to Germany.

Talking about Estonia.. When Estonia tried to relocate USSR monument, it was Russia which objected.
It also demonstrated that the established incumbent party can lose if they ignore the will of the people. They could have easily found another Republican (even another judge) that wasn't accused of numerous sexual misconducts. They chose not to bother because why swap out a yes-man with a person that might have principles when Alabama is a guaranteed win?

Eventually both parties are going to realize that they would be better off putting forward a candidate that the people like instead of putting forth an establishment yes-man (in the Dems case from the presidential race, a yes-woman).
AI and Ken Thompson’s “Reflections on Trusting Trust”
"If you're a startup who wants to minimize capex and quickly spin up a reliable, secure infra to host your app on to get it out of the door ASAP, you would go with cloud."

I agree, but I don't think that's the market either.

I think the market is in massive big-corps, moving their IT infrastructure to the cloud.

Like regular, non-tech companies.

Small startup bills might be hundreds, thousands, possibly 100's of K but probably not millions. Big corp contracts may be millions - and stable.
I thought he meant TimeWarner -- the content company that owns TBS and Warner Bros-- not Time Warner Cable which was bought by Charter?

I don't think any Net Neutrality advocates have yet addressed the fact that last mile ISPs can't find new ways to subsidize broadband roll-outs and upgrades. The only way to pay for it is to charge you more. So while the internet access stays "fair" (which is already questionable at best), you pay more money, and service roll-out continues to be slow and crappy.

Some form of compromise regulation is needed to both retain the fairness of access, but also allow ISPs to find new ways to monetize. But most people don't seem open to talking about this.
Given that the FCC only recently lost a court case about its authority to preempt state laws banning muni broadband, how would this situation be any different?
Sure, if the server and customer are both in Ca but if the server is elsewhere and they do their traffic shaping outside of state lines there isn't much that can be done.

I never paid much attention to what they got up to before the feds stepped in but I kind of doubt it was a last mile problem, once the packet got that far why mess with it?

But, knowing California, they'll do one of those "...and any packet destined for a customer in California."

While I agree with others that more is better, if you can take only one course, I strongly recommend taking Andrew Ng's. While it is true that you don't need to be able to design and understand 'nets from scratch to be able to use them, I agree with most of the brightest minds in DL that you won't get too far if you don't at least have an intuition for the math behind it. And Ng's course really only gives you that - an intuition. It does an excellent job at ensuring participants understand the bare minimum to do any kind of serious work. Learning ${your favorite framework}'s API will be a breeze if you understand the "why" already.
If the activity caused actual damages and was outside the scope of normal usage? Yes.

Funny, I was listening to oral arguments on the Supreme Court last night on the way home from work. I'm not a lawyer, but my layman interpretation of what they were arguing (specifically in reference to sports betting) is that if the federal government chooses not to regulate something, they cannot also preempt state regulations.

I reserve to right to have completely misunderstood the legalese that I was hearing :)
Private groups. My user experience was similar to yours and I was close to deactivating my account before I got invited into a private group. Topics and discussions get much more interesting when people know coworkers and family members can't see it.
Exactly, they won't regulate the internet but if you don't offer net neutrality you can't get a business license, construction permits, etc. Whether this is good or bad is another matter but that's how they'll do it.

I think you have a flawed assumption that the big telcos that own the tower and backhaul aren't going to charge content providers for access to that tower.
Great! Now they can fit even more superheroes into one movie...
Even if that's true, that's not even half the problem. Especially because of the public outcry, I wouldn't be surprised if ISPs even lower consumer prices to try and drive the point home of "told you so". Then, on the other side, they get to play mafia with internet-based businesses.
Don't choke on salt. That could make you vomit

I don't know how widespread this was, but when I was a youngster, people started noticing that high achieving people tend to both do well in the workplace and in school. Many took that visible correlation to mean that school is what causes one to become a high achiever, and from there started pushing the idea that you will be forever stuck working for minimum wage at McDoanlds if you do not graduate from top academic programs.

While, from an adult perspective, it is logically silly and a violation of all standard economic models, when impressionable children are hearing this from respected adults on a frequent basis it is something that sticks in the mind.

Now the people I grew up with are adults, doing just fine for themselves, and most are certainly not stuck forever working at McDonalds for minimum wage, no matter how less than stellar their academic track record ended up being. I feel these success stories are appealing to these people because it is a sort of "I told you so" moment towards those who pushed the wrong message on them.

US democracy has produced a result you don't like. This is different to it failing.

So yes, girls like girly things - home making, looking after family and making nice things they need to get male attention. Meanwhile boys like toys about jobs to provide to family. Or aggressive toys imitating tools to fend off aggressors or attract females.

Checks out, no?
I agree with you; rural Texas is more like western rural cities than the deep south, including California. I pretty much always argue that Texas is not part of "the south", and often get ranted at because Texas is so far south...it's as southern as you can get in the US, but I think its character is just so different from SC, NC, GA, AL, etc. that it doesn't make sense to group them in most conversations.

How to Build a Self-Conscious Machine
What I'm saying is that you don't know enough to improve the system. You think you can just swing your blaming stick around like you know who's wrong and who is right. But you don't know that, and I don't know that, and the system we live in that is constantly producing prosperity is much too complex for anyone to understand.

But you and I both know this one thing. We both know how to improve ourselves. We know things that we are both doing wrong. I know my problems, and I'm going to fix those before I start tearing down the beautiful, harmonic system that I've inherited.
Wouldn't ISPs just block or throttle all Tor traffic (like they did with bittorrent back before net neutrality regulations were in place).

Just in case someone out there isn't aware, there's an app called Facebook Local (formerly Facebook Events), which is focused on the events aspect of Facebook. Great for continued participation in friends' events without all the other stuff.

Surprisingly, it also seems to be good for finding local events if you're looking for something to do.
I think btilly was making more of an empirical observation than arguing from the definition of liberalism.
Who cares? Only morons use FB. Let them consume video ads.
Agreed, I couldn't get past the first few slides without getting annoyed by the animated backgrounds and closing the presentation out.
I second this. I live in in a foreign country and there's a Facebook group with people from my home country who also live here. It's a small group with (50 people or so) and I really enjoy the friendly discussions and the fact that people try to help each other out. I keep my account for groups like those.
In the long term only content matters, not distribution. Netflix has built a very technically impressive distribution platform, but it is only as valuable as the content they have the rights to deliver.

It will only get easier and easier to make a distribution platform as the technologies required get cheaper, and the body of knowledge of how to do it grows.

Disney's content library is already far more valuable than Netflix's and acquiring Fox only increases the gap.

I'm a "leftist", and I had plenty of sane and interesting discussions on this website.
That's precisely why I'm NOT in a frenzy over this decision. Immediately, it means nothing to anyone, and even though I don't like seeing protections removed, it's possible that consumers may just win at the end of the day. IMO the big tragedy here is that we even needed NN in the first place, violators of the original Internet openness philosophy should be campaigned at the corporate level to bring them in line.
From my understanding Android's launch was delayed because they didn't know how amazing the first iPhone was before its release. That seems to me they were taking it seriously as they were competing with Blackberry at the time if I am correct.

I will never understand why people insist on using Facebook. What is the appeal? If you’re worth talking to, I will give you my phone number and we can text. For longer messages, I will send you an email. I can keep track of my contacts inside the Address book of my phone. What need exactly is Facebook filling?
At megacorp scales, you're wasting money going to the cloud unless your load profile is highly variable. GCP/AWS profit margins are very high versus bare metal, and if you're megacorp scale you can afford ops and bare metal you can depreciate over several years.

(and before you trot out Netflix, the vast majority of their bits are served out of OpenConnect appliances colocated at eyeball ISPs and peering points)

So like old good forums? Preferably with anonymous handler. So your coworker or family may be on the same forum, but wouldn't ever know that.
These calculations don't make sense unless you really consider TCO over any appreciable amount of time.

It's easy to say you can buy a huge server for a few thousand but the "cloud" provides incredible agility, security, and basically removes operational overhead. When compared to buying, maintaining, and decommissioning servers and software along with the time and personnel costs, it becomes a much closer race. Include global scale, elastic capacity, managed services, and support policies, and it's closer still.

Rarely are companies paying 3x IT spend just to run in the cloud, especially for large companies like Etsy.
Republicans aren't pushing deregulation of the internet to make swing states happy. They are pushing for deregulation because that's what several billionaire campaign contributors want them to do.
> It most certainly doesn’t benefit the Roma.

Not as a society or culture in general. Ignoring prevalence of poverty, crime, prejudice, illiteracy of one's own group (and note an individual belong to multiple group and some choose to identify with one or more in particular) is usually not beneficial.

But it will benefit an individual if they say are not involved in crime and want to apply for a job, school or move up the corporate ladder or interact with a neighbor, and others don't automatically apply stereotypes to them based on their skin color, race, nationality, language spoken etc.
Most of the comments here are about culture war and missing the more interesting point of the essay. We knew political tribalism was getting bad in SF. But isn't insane that things like life extension and genetic engineering are becoming a victim to this? I wouldn't have even thought these issues were controversial or political.

These are by far the most important technologies of our time. The consequences of them being set back even a little is utterly enormous, and we should be very concerned about this.

Another very important point was missed here. The smartest people can have the absolute weirdest political beliefs. They are the least likely to conform. And the most likely to not shut up about their weird ideas even when the consequences are obvious.
The inter-state commerce clause allows Federal Law to preempt state law in this case. Congress has imbued the FCC with the power to regulate(see Chevron v EPA) exactly this. States have no reserved power to regulate the behavior of telecoms.
