That's a weak analogy because the voice input sounds like the voice output in speech recognition.

When I see "horse poop" the thing I'm imagining and hearing in my head is not the individual letters as they appear on the screen at all. I'm hearing it in an internal monologue and I'm imagining and image and a smell.

In other words, the output generates wildly different input so 'subtracting it out' won't really work.
It was clear to everyone at the time that Dnt had to be an explicit opt in and advertisers would ignore it if it was set by default. Microsoft persisted and therefore undermined the spec.

Is this not how those companies make money? They offer investment management and advice, and capitalize on products with higher fees to make a profit. The fact that employees are incentivized to maximize that part is not extremely surprising. Of course, this is definitely edging into the grey area of how much information they actually provide their advisees about the tradeoffs of the different investment options.

You really think add companies cared that much? They only started caring because there were users going after them for advertising on such videos.

In some cases I understand, like the videos that are aimed at kids but they are pretty bad.
And the scammers.
Reminds me of how the hardest part of many tasks is simply getting started.
I think the what a lot of people don't realize about ponzi schemes or pyramid schemes, or scams in general, is they don't rely purely or necessarily on fooling the 'victim'. Very often greed is enough of a motivator.

I've experienced at least one really big country-spanning pyramid scheme where lots of people participated, completely aware that it was a pyramid scheme. They just figured they'd be able to 'get out' before the thing would collapse. Obviously that often didn't work out...

> Unfortunately the only way for them to know would to have not pulled.

Well, I think the video popularity even before hand is proof enough that the mob still liked it. People still flocked to Paul's channel, and probably will continue to do so. IIRC, he even saw an uptick in subscribers, but that may be a mistake on my part. The part I take issue with mostly is people saying that overly sensitive people got it taken down, when really it's just that overly anal Advertisers worried about the effect on their investment and brand image. That's a business decision which I'm sure is backed by pretty cold hard numbers.

> Does it not bother you that these people have basically hijacked YouTube and have any say in the content you get to view ?

As I try not to use Youtube at all, no, not really. Like, fundamentally I agree with you that pervasive Advertising is bad for society as a whole, but what happens to Youtube isn't really my concern, as Youtube/Google demonstrated long ago where their loyalties were, and I made peace with that. My response is not to say I approve of Advertisers having this much control - I think it's ridiculous. But my response is to empower the few artists I like using other funding means and to avoid Youtube. The loss of one viewer hopefully is off-set by the $5 a month.

> YouTube stands to loose more by penalizing him, the same goes for advertisers in lost impressions.

Well, I would have to imagine that based on the drama around the Adpocalypse and that Youtube has doubled-down on it instead of walking it back, Youtube and Advertisers are in agreement that the changes have been for the better, not for the worse.
To put it mildly, that seems pretty unlikely given the ridiculous amount of know-how and capital investment required for chip manufacturing.

I was think along the same lines. It great that OpenSSL have improved quality, yet it feels like they're rewarded for cleaning up their own mess.

Honestly, given the background for the award, cleaning up your code base shouldn't qualify you:

Improving code quality doesn't actually impact "the practice of cryptography".

Your other comments make me think you're someone who appreciates an honest discussion, so thanks for that.
I do have an honest question of the reverse. Those most in favor of homosexuality are also those okay with abortion.

But if parents started aborting because they were homosexual, would there be any sort of moral/ethical issue?

Other comments have rightly commented it could be inverse (selecting for homosexuality), but I think all pro-lifers would prefer anyone being born, and allowing them to be responsible for their own soul, so that answer is easier for me to imagine.

A lifestyle that does not easily accommodate mass deforestation has a lot of benefits, intentional or otherwise. I'm not arguing that we should all strive to be hunter-gatherers, but there are a lot of ways modern life could go really wrong in the next thousand years and it would be good to be mindful of those pitfalls.
There's a difference between talking to children about death (e.g. Mr Hooper on Sesame Street), and a video where a dude goes looking for people that committed suicide, succeeds in finding a corpse, and jokes about it in front of someone's body.
I think because in their mind a ban is a nice line in the sand thing.

Never mind that a global platform like YouTube has an impossible tension of thousands of subcultures, countries, advertisers and other stakeholders to try and balance.

That’s the big mistake of these Web 2.0 platforms in my opinion - they try to be both a virally growing platform and a community but always wait until something bad happens before making the rules apparent. It’s an unresolvable problem in my opinion.

Basically the ministry of Justice announced they are working on banning exchanges between crypto and fiat currency in Korea, and they ultimately aim to close down all exchanges.

Few hours later, ministry of Strategy and Finance calls out that the ministry of Justice is announcing as if their words are final, but not all government bodies have agreed to that yet.

For reference, ministry of Strategy and Finance is one of the most powerful government body in Korea (they fund the ministries). After this news cryptocurrency value is starting to shoot up again in Korea after the crash.

I can understand why you give SMS as an example, because it is just plaintext. But why Telegram? As far as I know Telegram is probably better secured over a service like Whatsapp.

Edit: the latter is an assumption from me, I do not have any claims to back this up. Thats why I'm asking.

> Water is sufficiently important to poor people (and their children) that you can't reasonably price them out of the market.

Where does it stop? Things cost what they cost. For instance, during famines, food shoots up in price exponentially. It's unclear whether you're talking about redistributive taxation and subsidies or price controls.

I'm ok with the former, and definitely not ok with the latter. Price controls are the easiest ways to guarantee shortages of a finite scarce good. Fortunately scarcity hasn't really been a problem for water in the Western world.

Yemen, however would beg to disagree.

Their most profitable crop, qat, requires huge amounts of water, and their capital is completely out of water[0]. Because they held the price of water artificially low, it was overused and now is gone.

Pytest-voluptuous – a pytest plugin for asserting data against python schema
well the alternatives I know of were to call .bind(this) all over the place, or wrap your handlers in a fat arrow wrapper function which is also an anonymous function as you say. I think this is the nicer of the options, and Vue.js is similar but you provide a hash of functions keyed by name, which is basically the same thing just different syntax. This nice thing about React is it doesn't matter. You can just write functional components if you don't want the es6 class stuff.
So in short, rather than doing something like:

assert 'info' in r
assert 'package_url' in r['info']
assert len(r['info']['package_url']) >= 10

This plugin allows you to rather:

assert S({
'info': {
'package_url': Length(min=10)
}
}) == r

It bolts on into pytest and provides a sensible error message in case validation fails.
See README at https://github.com/F-Secure/pytest-voluptuous for docs.

Background: There's not much code in it, but this is what I've been using to validate the responses of my flask application for a while now (as commit history will tell). It's simple and useful, as you can focus on just the interesting bits, and abstract away the nitty gritty details that might step into way. It also allows to keep the syntax concise, and reduces amount of boilerplate you'd have to write otherwise.
The problem is, that you never leave Google's domain. Even if the content is hosted somewhere else, you are accessing it through an iframe on a Google domain. But without looking at the URL bar, you don't even know it, as there is no Google logo or anything.
Not to mention, that it's a terrible user experience. The AMP header takes up a big part of your screen height and often causes browser URL bars not to hide, taking up even more. Add the site header and you barely have any space left for the content.
And it's even worse on old devices - they have to render the Google page and the iframe inside it. This makes them much slower than if Google just let you access the page directly.
If someone bullies people and uploads the videos for profit should that person be banned? Because that's the case here. Taking advantage of the non confrontational nature of someone to harass them is a valid reason to ban someone.

Downvote me to coach, but I've never understood why people assert that Youtube owes their users advertising dollars, where other social media platforms are exempt.

Youtube has for years run at a loss, providing free high-quality video streaming with no bandwidth restrictions. These "creators", who are actually a very tiny portion of users, pay zero overheads to have a worldwide broadcasting platform where they're unrestricted to promote third-party products and monetise their content in countless ways.

If people are going to complain about Youtube, then surely you've got to go after other social networks first who aren't sharing revenue with users who are bringing engagement to their platform (Reddit, Instagram, Snapchat, etc).
I'm not being sarcastic, but for some things, democracy is a hinderance.

For instance, in China, everybody is pretty much forced to learn Mandarin (generally). The schools are taught in it, and if you don't do well in school you won't get a good job and will be shown your way to irrelevance.

In India, I believe there are hundreds of languages being spoken. Imagine their economic and political power if the government one day just said "All government free education will be taught in English. There will be no Hindi, Bengali, Keralan, etc etc for schools that receive government funding. Also, all government forms will only be available in English and all government offices will only speak English. If you don't speak English at least decently, you will be fired."

You cannot get away with that in a democracy. In a dictatorship it's the stroke of a pen. Which is ultimately better for the economy?
In densely populated areas, there is no nature; everything that happens or doesn’t happen gets decided by man.

I feel the outrage generation has had far too much say in how this has been handled.

Videos of death appear all the time across various platforms. The fact that he made a video featuring a corpse should not enough to warrant a ban I don't feel - rather an immediate setting to 'age restricted content' perhaps - but If we're banning youtubers over showing a corpse on the screen, then most news media outlets would need to shut up shop. I know some people "don't like to see death", but it is a part of life. Do we really need to make death a taboo subject?

Now, I know that it's not simply because he video taped a corpse. His response and handling of the situation is clearly the underlying factor, and to that I ask - what happened to the idea that people can apologise, learn from mistakes, rehabilitate their behaviour and improve as a result of it? He apologised and removed his video, which seems like a reasonable response.

We all (i.e. the greater internet consuming population) seem to be going down a path of extreme responses to events without offering any ability for fixing mistakes. As soon as someone does something that's perceived to be wrong, everyone flips out and makes outrageous statements in comments threads (and in fact, it doesn't seem to require a majority voice - just loud and persistent small groups). The media perpetuates these stories as people love to keep getting more and more outraged. And people start posting more outlandish and aggressive responses in order to garner their own 'likes' and responses which feeds the snowball effect.

It seems like as time rolls on, there's less and less margin for error that people are willing to accept. And if you anger the mob for any reason, your life and career is over. It's a big risk for anyone in the public light I feel, and I wonder if we'll reach a stage where content creators (actors, writers, vloggers, streamers, or whoever) will change how they see any value in their career if it could be immediately and permanently extinguished for minor reasoning.
