It is used in the VoIP market. Always behind NAT, yes. We found zerotier much easier to manage, for example it's so quick for support to join/leave networks.

Another use case is our Docker Swarm which runs completely on zerotier, most nodes are on premise but some are in the cloud to make the system publicly accessible.

To me the best feature is the easy setup.
Equifax is bad, but the CFPB is much worse. Its rules and actions are immune to oversight by any other body, including Congress and the Judiciary. It draws funding directly from the Federal Reserve instead of being funded by Congress.

The politician who takes away freedoms is more like the accomplice.

It's like when a robber points a gun (fear based propaganda) at your head, and while you stand there paralyzed with fear their friend (the scheming politician) empties your pockets.

The media station which airs the fear based propaganda receives more views and profits, and the politcian that harangues on that fear gets more votes and power.
Yes they do, you just don't like that the answer is let them die.
This is likely a healthy correction. Equities have clearly been overvalued, and this may be a helpful correction during an otherwise healthy time in the economy in terms of unemployment, wages, etc.

Better than an over-inflated equity market in addition to major overvaluations in other areas of the market.
I don't think this is a bad thing.

In fact there probably is room in normal websites and blogs to allow you to write shorter "less quality" material along with the higher quality stuff.

I'm kind of convinced it's something like Medium + Twitter: A timeline of "tweets" on the home page where you can do everything you could on twitter but on the website (possibly syndicated) where you could also announce/promote articles written. One cool thing I realized is you can repromote old articles on your website when they become relevant again with a small blub just like most people end up doing all the time on Twitter.

But on your website, owned by you, etc. etc.

Both seem to integrate an existing thing into the QML runtime by using Qt-defined hooks and subclassing Qt-defined classes. I can't really understand it or map out the control flow. There's lots of magic involved.

I don't think Qt, or QML for that matter, is flexible enough to fit into an existing, complex architecture with its own concepts and data structures. What I need is something that I can feed my own inputs through a simple plain data API, and get back plain data results that I can further process, preferably without any other side effects.

I don't want to structure my code heavily towards a framework. I don't think that is flexible or maintainable. I don't want to use a framework that takes over the process and the processes' I/O and the main loop, and that I can't extend without plugging hard to maintain code into lots of magical sockets. Which also only gets you so far; you'll never be able to bend the framework to do quite what you need; and you'll waste hours and hours reading documentation and browsing obscure github projects to find clues how to bend it a little more. And of course, these clues will be invalid in the next version. This is my experience with Qt at least (as well as with CMake, for example).

Well, you have a huge city with expensive hotels (the most expensive hotels in Vegas are sometimes cheaper than really average hotels in New York). So, the number of people willing to risk it to make a quick buck is not going to be small.

In addition, there is somewhat of a PR problem for NYC. Kicking people out of their apartments, especially in winter, makes for great outrage news stories--especially if you happen to evict some 82-year-old grandma in rent control who is using AirBnB to pay for her meds.

Better to simply notify the landlords, like San Francisco does, who are then incentivized to evict the scofflaws.
Presumably once you're a millionaire, you're past the point of needing to rent a 1-bed apartment in high CoL like the other working stiffs. You can retire to a lower CoL area and live off your investments, or switch careers.

That matches my personal numbers for page views too, but TLS is site specific and not page specific, and it is deployed on small minority of websites on the internet (20-25% of top 1mil.), so my point still holds.

I may spend 80% of my time (whatever that means) on a few HTTPS websites, but I also spend 20% of my time browsing much larger proportion of non-https websites.

So the warning will be popping out a lot and will soon become a thing to ignore.

It seems like that would only matter, if politicians had to win votes person-by-person. But instead, influence is peddled to subcultures. "Urban blacks", "coal miners", "white supremacists", "tech entrepreneurs", etc. And effort spent appealing to urban blacks will get you votes all over the country, as opposed to appealing to coal miners which will net you support in certain parts of Wyoming and West Virginia.

I think buying a coal miner vote is more expensive than a latino vote, considering the amount of influence both groups yield.

> Then there is the contrarian in me that is probably just getting annoyed that they labeled the proposal as the "improved" piece of code. :D

Well, we think it's improved. Of course, what matters is "how you measure improvement" :-). Like anything else in engineering, there are always trade-offs, and you have to figure out what you value in the trade.

That said, here are a few ways I'd argue it is better:
1. It uses standard infix notation, instead of non-standard prefix notation. The standard worldwide notation for mathematics uses infix, as do practically all programming languages. That means practically all math books use infix, and most adults have over a decade of training in infix. The majority of programmers are never going to switch to a language that doesn't support infix notation.
2. Similarly, it uses a more-standard notation for function calls, e.g., "factorial(n)" instead of "(factorial n)". I don't think that's as big a deal, but it helps. It doesn't use "," for parameter separation (it could, but the extra commas are unnecessary and dangerously hide other uses of ",").
3. You don't need to figure out "did I match all the parens" when reading the code - instead, the visual layout tells you everything. Many developers don't like all the parens and find them to be an impediment to understanding (Google "Lots of Irritating Silly Parentheses"). If you don't like the whitespace layout, fine, you can use n-expressions instead of sweet-expressions.

The broad impact of these changes is that these notations retain all of Lisp's power (macros, quasiquoting, etc.), but look much more like a modern programming language. That matters, because software development today is normally done in groups - anything that makes code harder to read is a serious problem.
There's a problem in the UK where people get splashed with acid. A UK kid made a prank out of it (using water instead to scare them) .. and Google banned his entire YouTube channel.

Was what he did stupid? Oh absolutely. Maybe he needed to be taught a lesson .. but now his entire channel with hundreds of thousands of subscribers is gone, and so is the ad revenue .. and all the videos/content.

Because of the dependence on that platform, Google can kill anything they deem unworthy. You could say, "Well so could television companies, or Netflix/Amazon Video," but you typically enter in a contract with those companies, and there's some degree of oversight on the content. Here people are giving YouTube their content, and then monetizing it only if/after they get popular.

My pet theory is, that it's all about the exposure to the realities of other people in daily life, not through warped representations in the media. Population density correlates well with political preferences[1]. That regions don't need to be forgotten shows the example of wealthy Austria, where the FPÖ gets majorities anywhere not densely urban. I would put the threshold somewhere around 1000 to 5000 people/km².

Also rich gated or very segregated neighborhoods, where people are rarely step out side their homogenous envirements or cars fall under this extrapolation of the contact hypothesis in relation to suspectability to populism for me.

The Ph D Octopus, The Moral Equivalent of War, etc etc or the very funny one On Some Hegelisms about when on nitrous oxide he recognized it as the key to Hegel's thought. And his book on religious experience, textbook on the principles of psychology, and other books are still well worth reading and very enjoyable reads.

You seem to be talking about credit agencies though.

It's orders of magnitude easier to browse the internet in incognito mode than it is to live without a credit card or to not have a credit report. There's only two credit card networks and three credit reporting agencies.

Google and Facebook don't know exactly where you live but credit agencies do, and they also know your bank accounts, social security number, etc. Credit agencies openly sell their data, but Google and Facebook don't and never have. Google and Facebook don't actually have vast logs of everything you've ever done, they trash old logs after some period of time, and frankly most of is not useful to bother to do anything with to try to join it in the first place. But your credit card data and credit history lasts your whole life.

We could put some regulations on personally identifiable information... except actually that exists already, and the credit agencies have been the ones that have been hopelessly reckless with that and somehow always get away with it.

Good point about charge conjugation symmetry vs "charge conservation"- I was totally mixing up one for the other! Thanks (a lot) for driving that home. For anyone who might follow this - C in CPT - is charge conjugation - the swap of a particle for its anti-particle. Certainly not the same thing as charge conservation itself. Thanks for that correction. I tossed around a lot of stuff I shouldn't have.

Okay, so I think I get you now. I was basically working from the point of view that "gauge matters" because the current 4 vector is conserved only if the E&M Lagrangian is gauge invariant. Hence charge conservation is inextricably linked with gauge symmetry - it "matters" to the derivation of the physical dynamics.

But, yes, to your mathematical description of gauge fixing above... And to not being able to experimentally distinguish gauges. Phase differences, after all, are not gauge differences. Whatever the worth of the Aharonov–Bohm effect, it is not going to matter here. Good point. I get excited about this stuff.

To your question:
"Why would a part we want to get rid of determine the part we are really interested in"

I'd answer:
Why do we "want to get rid of" it?

We cannot detect which gauge we are in, and we can twice confirm that it doesn't matter which one we are in precisely because current four vector is conserved. The redundant descriptions of the Lagrangian are the way to ensure physical descriptions of reality.

I think this is a matter of what we like or don't like, not physics or math. But hey, sometimes those are clues!

Gauge symmetries are non-physical redundancies... which are essential to our mathematical description of real physics. Maybe they are a clue that there is a better, undiscovered, way to do business?

Maybe.

Obviously this is bad for workers in the short-term.

The judge notes however that under California law, you’re either an employee or contractor, there is no in-between, and she presumably wants to see that fixed.

This is an old issue that goes way back to Microsoft hiring contractors and treating them really well like employees, until the IRS discovered they were also doing it to not pay payroll taxes :(

Afterwards, Microsoft had to significantly dock contractor benefits to show there was a real distinction and it was not an accounting gimmick.

Like a lot of labor and tax law, these were all put in place 60+ years ago and have pretty much been stretched to the maximum. Ironically, this makes me see people going to Law School as in a really cool spot for the future.
