I'm not sure, but Google Search in general strips punctuation that isn't specifically designated as a search operator[1], and likely strips control/non-printing characters in a similar manner. Testing it[2] with a few URL-encoded control and invisible characters[3], they seem to be ignored. But they do make it into the query parameter, at least until you edit it for a subsequent search, at which point they get converted into spaces/+ symbols in the query.

Or two people, one being a known sufferer of depression and the other being known a a sufferer of PTSD, decided to kill themselves like an alarming number of people do who suffer from those problems. Maybe instead turning this into a story about government conspiracies and secret plots to kill citizens we try to turn this into a story about getting people with mental health issues the help they need.

Agreed to a point. For some apps user interaction is required, and progressive enhancement isn't possible.

For non-apps though, it's still very important. Articles should not require a JS bundle to load. When JS is used, it should be optimized.

If our opsec fails and I am unmasked, I will be unhappy at being caught. Successors will recover the system from backup keys and continue on. Small comfort.

Go can offer simplicity and flexibility only once you use function literals. Like reading a file line by line could be just a single function call that calls your function literal each time the line is read.
Technically, decentralized system will be always slower than centralized one. Its a good thing its slow. 1 hour blocks are even safer (and effectively we do convert blocktime to an hour by waiting for 6 confirmations).

So no, you can't "do" more, only be more noisy.
Is it really as simple as that though? Apple is distinct in that they are a hardware company first.

I agree, it's a very poor design, likely dating from an era when high speed was a big noisy horse drawn carriage.

The proper engineering solution to this is to have an angled turn-off on to a side road (either perpendicular or parallel) which /is/ limited to a "safe residential speed".

None of these behaviors are mutually exclusive. They can both care about customer experience and want to drive developers to the app store, where they will both get a cut and possibly provide users a better experience.

>people whom fate is much worse, IMHO

This is such a hard call to make, because the more severe the autism, the harder it is to know how happy they are. Perhaps the person who is totally into trains who spends their entire day playing with trains and train simulators and watching videos of trains is really happy. But maybe they are still lonely, but don't really know how to let others know? The higher functioning individual is able to let others know how lonely they are, and they are often attacked for it, but is that really worse than being lonely without the ability to even communicate that?

But by that logic younger siblings would be overrepresented next bin, [30,40]. What goes up must come down.

Yes, the bible itself claims this (2 Peter 1:21). I was referring to men coming up with the idea and colluding over a millennia.

> Many of the story elements and arcs can be found in cultures that pre-date Christ.

That is because everything in the New Testament (including Christ's life) was an extension of what had already be told for thousands of years earlier.

> Over thousands of years one can find examples for any broad prophecy.

These aren't broad prophecies. They are specific accounts of events such as the destruction method of Tarshish by a Greek commander (Alexander the great) or the name of a future Persian King who would command the rebuilding of the temple (Darius the Persian) or the return of Israel as a nation after Daniels 69 weeks had elapsed, etc...

The most extensive prophecies are focused on Jesus himself and what he would do and how he would die (Isaiah 53, etc..).

I see those databases as the key tool that I interact with most of those services and how, as the person developing services for the same services, I can improve them. If the information there is wrong, I’m happy to correct it.

From experience, if the information is true, appropriate and sensical, the benefits are clear and valued by both parties. There is a problem when they are wrong and the user can’t provide feedback.

> such a database could be used for manipulation, blackmail, fraud

Which is why I refuse to keep private information about me accessible to a company whose security practices I don’t trust.

I’m not sure your condescension hits the mark.

Hang on a second, Apple aren’t blocking adds this way, only cross-site user tracking. However in Apps they have been locking down cross-App user tracking by advertisers for many years.

So your argument makes no sense. The only consistent way I can see this is that Apple genuinely dislikes user tracking, and blocked it on the App Store first because that’s where they had the most control and responsibility, and then did it on the web when they had the tech.

Voting, we are uncertain how that would work but very much open to it. Dividends, yes, that is the entire point of us selling equity. This is considerably better than what you get from some publicly traded companies these days!

Open financials: We will have a certificate-transparency-style audit-log of our revenue and we will release limited financials and can discuss concerns if the revenue numbers and profits are too far apart.

This is better because before anonymity tech and cryptocurrencies...It was very difficult to invest in or even run a global escorting platform. This is due to the laws in many countries that we can now work-around. And investors can participate while maintaining their complete privacy. This is difficult with traditional government-regulated equities.
> It does, because the definition of bloatness depends on the network speed.

No, it doesn't. It depends on the proportion of actual content to the unnecessary cruft. The difference is that what a Singaporean considers bloat might prevent someone in Jakarta from accessing the site at all.

> That's completely wrong. Today, the vast majority of internet traffic is served from CDNs, CDNs (and their placements) are critical for the internet as we know it.

That is if you include streaming video, which is off-topic for this discussion.

Imagine a perfect world with the ultimate CDN solution - something like IPFS, which ensures everyone is a CDN to everyone else (instead of wasting bandwidth with multiple downloads of the same content). The concept of bloat wouldn't disappear in such a world, because bloated websites will still require you to download unnecessary amount of data to your machine, and will reduce your computer's ability to multiprocess while also using up your battery life.

I stand by what I said before - CDNs are a hack (basically a hand-rolled, rudimentary distributed system) to give you some extra download speed. They don't solve the problems of download size and resource usage.

IMO the problem was not adjusting the dollar value, but the fact that they did not regenerate the past week's data in the sparkline.

It's perfectly possible to build a distributed database, actually that's exactly what blockchains are (OK, I know , we said no blockchain but I merely use it as an example ;)).

> My company moved from self-hosted IRC a few years ago. No one had time to maintain the system (backups, updates, troubleshooting, etc), and it was cheaper and easier to pay slack than to hire someone to maintain an IRC server, or to pull someone from their actual job to maintain it.

This isn't p2p, p2p shouldn't be confused with self hosted. Nobody has time to set up and maintain a server of any kind, but everybody was seeding torrents in the late 2000 and nobody complained about it being too much work.

[2] while the TURN protocol gives you the “hybrid system” for free (development-wise, you still need a hosting plan in that case, but it can be mutualized between all your applicative needs).
> I have yet to see genuine criticism of [Jordan Peterson] which stands up to scrutiny.

I don't believe Peterson is alt-right, but I do think there's a fair case for dismissing him as a source for anything but his specific field of clinical psychology. His sudden rise to the position of "public intellectual” (on the back of his alarmist and widely disputed take on Bill C-16 [1]) is troubling when his unwavering single-minded crusade against what he considers a global cabal of “postmodern neo-Marxists” colours nearly every view he has [2][3].

Examples of this can be seen in his bold proclamations against feminists, Disney films, the concept of white privilege, but also in his occasional habit of linking to junk-science blogs to inform his position rather than peer-reviewed research (such as when he propagated the debunked[4] claim that contrary to what nearly every climatologist, atmospheric physicist, geologist, glaciologist and oceanographer has been telling us, Earth's climate sensitivity is actually trending towards zero [5]).

He’s also demonstrably not one to allow gaps in his knowledge to get in the way of proudly displaying his confirmation biases [6][7].

So as a trained clinical psychologist, I’m sure he knows what he’s talking about when he stays in his own lane, but for an academic and supposed advocate for scientific rigour he seems remarkably lax in applying the same care and scrutiny to his positions on social issues.

My impression is that those who don't care about privacy have already switched to Chrome long ago, and see little reason to go back. And from those who do care, an increasing number (including me) is considering leaving FireFox due decreased trust in Mozilla's self-proclaimed privacy standing. I do wonder which target audience will be left to use FireFox after all then.

I'm not sure why you think it doesn't make much sense. Google can do things that benefit multiple parties including themselves.

I think a lot of this is in reaction to FB's Instant Articles and wanting to gain further leverage over publishers. If you can commoditize publishers' content and control the format, and you supply the users and the monetization via ads, you can make the publishers do whatever you want because the alternative is for them to lose money, which they can't afford to do.

In many ways, this is a very defensive play by Google. It also happens to provide a better user experience in some ways, which is awesome, and also helps further Google's goals of controlling ad formats and more importantly the data that is collected on publisher sites that lets them monetize their data in ways they may not be able to with AMP pages.
This is very insensitive. Driving a car is a practical necessity for most people, and genuine accidents do happen.

I don't know how you can possibly think it's appropriate to tell somebody who is suffering through the grief of accidentally killing a child that "it IS your fault".

Striving to drive less is a great thing to do for many reasons, but the vast majority of people will still be required to drive regularly. Some of those people will have genuine accidents. We don't currently live in a world where it is possible to completely prevent traffic accidents (which, for the record, are also occasionally caused by cyclists and frequently caused by pedestrians)

It is inevitable that some people will be involved in tragic accidents, and your comment does nothing to prevent that. It just makes life worse for the people in that situation

> You are wrong on the long term goal and vision for FxOS: in 2.6 we started to add very webby stuff to the overall UX with "pin the web" features.

(I should say that I don't think there was a more webby version of Firefox OS that would have had more success.)

The webby features weren't the point of FxOS. It was always clear what the point was: create a phone OS/platform built entirely on web technologies, with Gecko as the core. UX was an afterthought and the basic transitions were all based on phone apps and not the web. And it

> And I wonder who the platform team was supporting then, because they were not supporting b2g either...

It's interesting that you felt they weren't supporting b2g, because from the other side we got the message that other things couldn't get done because of b2g.

There were really three directions vying for attention with Platform: Firefox OS, Firefox, and Platform's own goals (generally related to advancing web technologies). Notably when Platform was moved into the Firefox group there was also a message that we should stop trying to get ahead on new web APIs, and the focus became very clear: support Firefox. At the time of Firefox OS it wasn't at all clear what the focus was.

When things are confusing I think there's a tendency to fall back on your own competencies, and for Platform that meant sticking to what they knew how to do, not the most most gnarly (but potentially very impactful) b2g needs.

> I'm sympathetic to the idea of building a great desktop browser, but at this point in time that should not be MoCo priority #1. Hopefully the platform improvements done recently will be reused in a different context.

The desktop browser is why Mozilla has any money to do anything, of course it should be priority #1! People spend millions of hours every day in Firefox, and those people are worthy of attention.

Naive to assume that the largest portal for the web can't have a detrimental effect on the web. As that's what this is. The clout Google has in driving web standards is both a positive and negative. In the case of AMP the consequences of the trajectory Google is on now can set the precedent for other networks and ultimately lead to further centralization of content.
> That is the case for pretty much everything non-digital and schools and education as well and thus an entirely reasonable position to take.

> Wait, are you actually defending that only rich people should have access to content?

I'm not sure how you got that out of the parent comment. It says "this is not a new problem, but it is a problem". A system that relentlessly tracks users and their habits is not the solution. If for no other reason than it sequesters poor people to parts of the web that track them, while rich people can afford to pay for content.
