> Are you suggesting that we recall the great bulk of modern CPU's? Like, literally gut everyone's computers

(not OP) but YES!

INTL had to recall their Pentium 1 too, but did so after a lot of pressure and mainly in US. Many Pentium 1 were still left unfixed because of INTL. All operating systems and BIOS needed a fix to correct the problem. Though back then internet wasn't mainstream, neither were OS updates, so many broken CPUs never run the fix but also never run a program that crashed the CPU with that bug.

INTL has to recall all Pentium Pro, Pentium 2, Pentium 3, Pentium M, Pentium 4, Pentium D, Core, Core 2 Duo, Core 2 Quad, Atom (2013+), i3/i5/i7 and the equivalent server Xeon counterparts.

Even if it means financial troubles for INTL, they fxcked up big time. Who knows how long this backdoor was known or who designed it.

The question is why are commentor here defending INTL?? Do you have stock, or are an employee or otherwise benefit from them and have a certain interest in their wellbeing??
> Logan Paul is receiving a penalty for bad judgement and violating Youtube rules; he's not the victim of mob mentality,

He's receiving punishment because of the mob mentality. The platform had the video in question on their highly curated Trending page before he pulled it.

Whether some accountability was necessary is secondary to the fact that he is now in the sights of a huge morally righteous outrage mob. And I'm with the OP that it seems like society runs in a mode now where mob retribution is not satisfied until it the retribution is absolute.
It's a quote from the main Bloomberg video on the page linked above. The presenter seems to have gotten the meanings to a few of his buzzwords mixed up.
Looks nice, but I'd save everything to local storage when it's not saved to the server. I expected it to be still there when I press F5.

Also, when you are dragging an item, make sure it get's the highers z-index, you don't want the tile you are holding to appear below another one while dragging.
Right. Satoshi, brought us bitcoin, but possibly more importantly, he brought blockchain in eyesight of the master branch.
Our expectations now, unfortunately, still should be that backspace is for underlining and overstriking. The man system still uses the TTY-37 conventions, for starters. Indeed, groff, which when it was created was made capable of using ECMA-48 control sequences, was in the late 1990s and early 21st century forcibly dumbed back down to TTY-37. FreeBSD recently switched its manual processor from groff to one that has no ECMA-48 capability.

> Starting from a web framework not only gives you portability

... except when you actually need to actually, you know, port it, to a platform it wasn't already ported to out of the box.
Who exactly is in this role of deciding how loud and powerful people can be? At what point does a person get bucketed into the category of "the offended"? Clearly you think his actions were disgusting, yet you speak as if you're in a position of superiority over these people. I wonder where that line is drawn.

People don't want to support this stuff, or buy products associated with it. That's a show-stopper for this business model.
Mueller appoints cyber prosecutor
There's loose judgement and making mistakes; and there's filming the corpse of someone who has committed suicide and making jokes about it, then somehow deciding that it's a good idea to put it online.

The market doesn't handle morality. Especially in this kind of case, he was more likely to get views from the outrage, even just from people disgusted in him.

There are cases where yes, I think that maybe the voice of the offended gets magnified too much. But trivialising suicide to millions of (mostly quite young) people and in such a crass and uncouth manner is not one of those cases.
There is also Baikal.
> Not trying to be pessimistic but genuinely curious why so many people make the analogy to the dot com period.

Because most people are not creative nor critical thinkers and the extent of their brilliance is superficial pattern matching. To most people the dot-com bubble seems to fit all the patterns so by their logic it must have the same outcome. If you think critically about the differences of the crypto craze and the dot-com era, you’ll see how irrational it is to make a strong comparison.

Bitcoin is not Pets.com. Bitcoin is Google.

One season perfectly coinciding with another with a giant consistent pile of surplus electricity? And all of these miners transport whole data centers worth of miners a couple of times a year?

I want to believe it but this sounds too convenient to be true. It sounds more like propaganda invented to cover up the massive waste of energy. Do you have any sources to back it up?

Also, most dams don't produce more electricity during high level seasons. They generally produce a fixed amount with a constant flow to the generators and then the only thing that changes is the spillways being used during the wet season.

Also, just implement a give-up after 3-5 seconds. If a sever can't respond in that time, why bother (not worth the resources).
ALL transport accounts for only 14% of emissions; beef and electricity generation are where the big gains are. We already have the technology to produce electricity without greenhouse gasses, we do not have the technology to physically move as fast and as far as airplanes without burning fossil fuels.

People can choose to take some personal responsibility and sacrifice air travel (and more importantly beef!) for the sake of the environment but we have so much ground to gain at a systematic level that I don't think we need to be too overzealous about behavior change at this stage in the problem.

Voting for politicians that will speed up the transition away from coal to renewables will have a far greater impact on the environment than personal lifestyle choices ever will.

Now in 2020 they are trying to tell me all the kinks are worked out with frameworks and to get your javascript to work in a browsers you first need to compile/transpile it.

Skip the whole multi-platform idea and focus on electron with all the custom bells/whistle not available on all the platforms. Btw how does meltdown/spectre affect the outlook on security with all these application in their own little v8 kingdoms?

I'm not cynical, I'm concerned.
Why death is so much taboo in Western world today? Why teenagers should forget about death and life risks? One climbing skyscrapers risks death, but rarely there is material to show and visually warn young brains how that may end up. Most bodies in that forrest had suits, possibly office workers, who knows maybe pushed into karoshi - that is the problem and warning too.

I am not sure if Mr Paul was disrespectful in the material, that wasn't covered by the article. But death is real, why to reject it? Why to not discuss it openly?
The subject recently came up on StackExchange.

That's close to perfect, indeed.
The drawbacks in this scenario are that (1) not everybody runs an SMTP server, (2) if it's open source (and if it's very popular, then it is), some other smart people will look for the bug and publish it for fame.
That's quite different from a backdoor built into a processor (although I really doubt Intel was really involved in any shady practices, it looks like they were not smart enough).
I don't agree with GP that he should be banned, but it seems like a perfectly fine decision for YT to remove him from premium advertising. Not just for optics reasons, but because there's nothing wrong with a company taking a stance on crass and offensive (to some people) content.
Yeah, there's a deliberate blurring of "not able to speak" with "people don't want to be associated with paying him to speak" going on here.

Have you ever watched a good designer mockup something using Indesign, PowerPoint or a Wordpress Theme like Divi? They're superfast with the visual tools. I doubt you can match that in CSS/HTML.

There's a reason Visual Basic was so popular in the 90s. That sort of development kind of got forgotten when the web overtook everything. And it's why Alan Kay made Smalltalk a visual environment, and not just raw code in an editor, because human beings are faster designing UIs with visual tools.

It works overseas, or at least it used to. My account has a billing address in the United States, where I live most of the year, but when I'm in Europe if I log into Netflix it works but only provides the titles available to Europe. The "Whoops" message is probably because it is detecting that your IP is on a block where a lot of VPS services reside (e.g., a known VPN or AWS).
Why would he turn ads off if he was sincere? I don't really understand the relation.

Indeed. At the present time many or most scientific studies are not reproducible.
The issue isn't that Jake is confronting the issue of death itself, the issue is that he is effectively objectifying a physical, very recent suicide for his fans to oogle and oggle over and deliver a payload of clicks, irrespective of the identity of the victim or his family.
> An easy rule of thumb: the demand side of a market is the side that pays the money.

Not necessarily, especially when you're talking about multi-sided markets, like YT.

There are 3 demand components:
- Ads
- Content
- Cash

And 4 participants:
- YT
- Creators
- Advertisers
- Audience

Ads flow from Advertisers to Audience, content from Creators to Audience, Cash from Audience to Advertisers, and Cash from Advertisers to YT and Creators.

While I doubt we'd see these means anytime soon, it could go either way I think: Forced abortions because of sex orientation (and who says that it'll have to be the straight people that abort homosexuals, not the other way around?) or taking a pill and become gay for some months, as you wish.

I'd assume that the usage of such products would move towards more (percieved) comfortness in life (like not being gay in teenage years, bc. some studies found you're more likely to feel bad ... but being gay in college/post-college years because higher income).
because the money and views directly enable this negative behaviour? These people are free to be assholes all they want, but they shouldn't be funded by youtube.
That's a misreading of Kuhn. He believed in scientific progress -- he says so explicitly.
And yet people get all worked up about "stolen" passwords. I still have my password. What's the problem?
Not really. Literally everyone, from HN to my grandmother, says that the crypto market is a bubble while most people were completely clueless right until the dotcom bubble burst.
Those undocumented features & byte code? HAP mode - something the NSA doesnt want you to know exists, but that they had put into intelME from Skylake onward.

They only update microcode when they have to. When doing otherwise risks... Well, this kind of mess.

Birth order is another known input for male homosexuality.[1][2] For every older biological brother, the chances of being born gay go up substantially. But the mechanism isn't known yet. A number of other objective measurements also change with birth order. Parent genetics alone aren't enough.

Because WebComponents is still not a thing and browser vendors can't seem to agree?
I feel like my first point still stands. It does not matter that the advertisers pulled, it matters why they pulled. If it was not based on actual business impact but the threatening offended then it is a problem. Unfortunately the only way for them to know would to have not pulled.

Also I don't see how YouTube RED dropping him has your do with advertisers. He still has a channel right ? He still is able to make new videos ?

But you bring up a real good topic. You claim the advertisers want a sanitized platform. Does it not bother you that these people have basically hijacked YouTube and have any say in the content you get to view ?

Also I am not really trying to defend this guy. I am mostly questioning how what is often a vocal offended outraged minority of people seem to have more power than they should.

So if YouTube or an advertiser made any decisions not directly off raw numbers then it bothers me. If the market -- that means views -- goes down because people cared enough to stop watching then it is a win win. Advertisers won't pay because of less views.

My argument is based on the notion that YouTube stands to loose more by penalizing him, the same goes for advertisers in lost impressions.
...maybe it's because today the higher quality ones are about stuff most of us don't understand? When a field is young you have "quality at the bottom level", but it's not really young anymore.
> He's receiving punishment because of the mob mentality.

I'm afraid history doesn't really agree with you - the entire "Adpocalypse" was advertiser driven, not user driven. Users had been complaining about horrible videos on Youtube for years and the videos continued to be monetized and Youtube didn't care. Ad revenue and results were not trending down, Advertisers just wanted more control, and Youtube gave it to them.

And I take issue with the idea of the Trending Page being highly curated because it's clearly algorithmic, not manually managed. The countless videos on the subject, as well as Quora discussions strongly suggest that it's decided by algorithm, not by individuals.

I get that you're frustrated with how people respond to certain topics in modern society, but the action from Youtube is pretty even handed by any metric. Logan Paul is _not_ banned from Youtube, he's not banned from monetizing, he's simply been removed from a specific level of partnership in Youtube for violating a rule that Youtube has had for a long time and for going against Advertiser wishes. Again, he should know better - he's made a mistake, he's receiving a punishment. If he is contrite, he will recover; he seems to have what it takes to be successful on Youtube. This time he just went too far.
That's like claiming aluminum plants are the best way to export energy without high power lines. You aren't actually exporting energy, you're exporting something created with energy that can't be converted back into that energy.

People can exchange it for more energy, but you haven't reduced energy generation.
>the way of life is the same

Would you mind elaborating more on this? It's hard to tell if you mean "avoiding sexual misconduct" as "don't rape, don't have sex outside of marriage" etc, or as "gay men must live as if they were straight". From a Buddhist perspective, the first choice seems reasonable, if a little restricting, since it's a rephrasing of the Third Moral Precept, but the second seems far too imposing on somebody else.
You can. Responsibility for their choice of business partners lies with them, not the public. Otherwise this blame-game-treasure-hunt-rigmarole never ends.

It doesn’t matter that much, but it’s a matter of principle.
>>That's still a lot to trust. How do I know someone isn't just gonna go crazy?

It's not though because it takes a lot more than one individual to go crazy. It takes a huge number of people, who have a huge amount invested in the platform, to simultaneously go crazy and burn their hundreds of millions of dollars worth of their own assets down. People who own that much are generally mentally stable and focused individuals, and the idea that such a huge portion would spontaneously go crazy at the same time is extremely farfetched.

Relying on cryptoeconomic incentives is a much safer bet than trusting that a handful of trusted third parties won't be bent to the will of some political elite who pass a law, or won't collude to raise fees once they have attained a significant network effect and customer lock-in.
So it's easy to reduce production by 50% capacity or so and then it becomes problematic.
I visited Ghent once and adored it, at least the car-free center.
In the eating disorder unit
Discovery can be bad too. If you don't eat meat or pork or whatever, you often have to go through the menu in O(n) and look for your options. And then maybe it's a dish they've stopped making months ago, but printing new menus would have been to expensive. (OK, that won't happen at McDonald's.)

With a tablet, you could filter the list with a single tap. I've thought about building such an app a few years ago because I'd love to use it, but I have no idea how you could sell it to restaurants. It seems most places are too conservative and cash-strapped to tie themselves to proprietary tech.
I think a push button that will bring the car to the original place where the passenger ride would be nice.

Exactly, so much overreacting to something you can simply choose not to watch.

People getting so offended someone put a video up, they will call the advertisers and complain about how their add is showing in a offensive video.

And then there is the punishment, it never is enough. The person must be completely destroyed. I think that happens because in the angry mob every one wants retribution for themselves.
(for example, you murder someone. You get arrested and go to court. There you get sentenced 5 years for each relative and friend the victim had, instead of getting the sentence for murder)
No, CSFR tokens, validating API keys, restricting the origin of request, etc is how to restrict access to the API. TOS is only text to keep the honest honest, the security layer is to keep the attackers and others without access out.
A TOS is the web-site telling how it want you to behave, and all it can do if you don't behave that way is to do its best to not let you in. Nothing of this stops you from trying to reverse engineer the protocol.

The best part with using an API is that, at least in theory, it is stable and will not have changes that breaks your integration with it
We are seeing the rediscovery of the network monopoly business model in these online giants like YouTube, only without the former safeguards of production contracts that television and film have developed. It's no different than the "uberization" of the rest of our economy over the past 10 years. All of the marginal costs and inefficiencies involved with running a business have been externalized to the employees and customers of that business because there is no other option for them. Those in control of the distribution will always have final say. Only now they have the power to make arbitrary rulings with zero means of recourse by those affected, short of mass organization.
As said here: https://www.wired.com/story/whatsapp-security-flaws-encrypti...

"The researchers say that Open Whisper Systems, the non-profit that runs and maintains Signal, nonetheless responded to their work, saying that it's currently redesigning how Signal handles group messaging. Open Whisper Systems declined to comment on the record to WIRED about the Ruhr researchers' findings."

"In a phone call with WIRED, a WhatsApp spokesperson confirmed the researchers' findings. [...]And the WhatsApp spokesperson also noted that preventing the Ruhr University researchers' attack would likely break a popular WhatsApp feature that allows anyone to join a group simply by clicking on a URL."
So I don't think WhatsApp will fix it.
Point taken, it could be E2E on the web. It seem it's just a "classic" web app though.
