Glad to see this proven out somewhat, since in the back of my mind I've been thinking it all along, every time someone claims automation is going to eliminate more jobs. That's not how it works. When cars are made more fuel-efficient it results in our collectively using more gas, because of more miles driven. (The phenomenon has a name that I'm forgetting.)

Obviously there are myriad ways of obfuscating what's really happening, and blaming technology is one of them.

I was reading about coroutines recently, and figured I would make something simple to emulate the idea of coroutines in Golang. This basically just wraps some standard library functionality around goroutines and channels to give some tools to work in a coroutine-esque way.
> Do you think ... money laundering ... [is] OK?

Your other two items are clearly not okay, but doing what you want with money you earned is perfectly fine.

I have yet to hear a legitimate argument for why "money laundering" is wrong. Laws already exist to criminalize the illegal acts committed to acquire money - what, precisely, is the rationale for criminalizing the voluntary obfuscation of money, however earned?
The only one was Cloudflare on another project (file hosting) - and being fair, we did do 20tb of transfer in a single month on the free tier, which they weren't so pleased about :P. that really crippled the website and we struggled to run the service after that point (oddly enough, going from their CDN and network to our own which could barely squeeze past 1gbps wasn't ideal).

It's more the longer term potential - businesses change, or see valuable partners and may decide to react accordingly, I guess having many CDNs is the best approach and swapping them out on the fly.

I do have other concerns, mainly about the pricing and how you plan to deal with things like hotlinking, taking a .m3u8 is super easy to abuse. You charge $780 for 416 days worth of streaming or in easier terms $1/12 hours of streaming so I wonder whether you will let people impose limits or what happens once those limits are reached.

I could easily take someone elses m3u8 and let them run up the charges on your service whilst I get the wonderful video hosting for myself.

I especially liked this part:

"Please do not upload video, download the playable assets, and then delete video."

You might as well offer that as a service since there's not really much you can do to prevent people using you as a transcode service directly (well, you can, but do you want to?)
The money might be actually be earned elsewhere, but declared to be earned here to avoid Chinese scrutiny / reporting / tax laws.

By the way, anyone still able to access scihub?
That's the point, they do not have plenty of contrast. In the very first "good example", the phrase "Explore popular tourist destinations..." is needlessly difficult to read for me, and "28 reviews" might as well not be there; it's difficult to notice and I need to strain my eyes to read something with that low contrast. That picture is a clear example of something that's hard to use for many people, doesn't satisfy official accessibility standards, and should not be recommended.

Maybe you're younger or have better vision or a significantly different screen than I do, but then let that be a warning that either you need do usability testing on some settings where that particular picture looks not sufficiently 'contrasty' to you as well, or you need to write down the RGB values that this image has with a note "that's not enough contrast for general usage even if it looks ok to my eye".
I think the city inspector had a sound meter and an idea of what changed..
I talked to some of the IPFS folks a while back, and they were planning on publishing a blacklist. It would be up to the individuals running IPFS nodes to subscribe to blacklists, and anyone who wanted to do so could publish them (after all, there's very little technical capability required to publish a simple list of hashes).

This was in the context of child porn though, not copyright. I imagine that they wouldn't bother publishing a blacklist of copyrighted items (since every item is copyrighted, and a copyright holder is perfectly within their rights to publish their own copyrighted works via IPFS). Instead I suspect that they would suggest that copyright holders publish their own blacklists.
I struggle to see why this is problematic, to be honest. They (the registrar, not puri.sm) didn't pay their bills, so they get turned off. The story doesn't relay to what extent the registrar received reasonable and timely warnings about this, although with a bit of guesswork, it doesn't feel absurd that perhaps they simply failed to act on such warnings, like, at all.

If a SaaS doesn't pay their AWS bills, they get turned off, it's not on AWS to keep the SaaS' customers running, and if AWS doesn't pay their electricity bill - - etc.
Thanks for the suggestion! If you try using it on mobile, we actually have joysticks for you to use which might work reasonably well. I'd try it out.

I'm aware of the guideline about commenting on voting. I broadly agree with it.

In cases of what appear to be extremely abnormal voting behavior (asking a very simple, legitimate question and getting thrashed by downvotes), I regard it as a reasonable issue to raise.
The whole point of JSON+LD is to make that information more accessible to the outside world (like to search engines), why else would they publish that?

I studied bioinformatics and enjoyed it tremendously. I unfortunately (for my science career) got sidetracked with a startup and never finished my degree, but I think I have a good enough understanding of the field, and I'd love to try my hand at contributing something useful.

What I have almost no idea of is what sort of product might actually have a chance in a commercial context. I'm not even talking about VC-startup territory, but something that's both interesting, and could potentially achieve "Ramen profitability".

From what I remember, startups were mostly in Pharmaceutics, requiring vast amounts of money and expertise. And bioinformatics within those companies seemed to mostly involve groundwork in the data cave. PyMOL comes to mind as an exception.

Any pointers would be appreciated!
Its actually very much unlike that. While the communities in the Eastern District of Texas did benefit from the popularity of the venue because frequent patent litigants -- one either side -- spend lots of money in those communities essentially trying to buy sympathy in the jury pool, those communities have essentially no control over the court rules that drive the popularity of the venue; its not a race-to-the-bottom competition like the Amazon HQ2 competition, and similar (usually less formalized) efforts to attract other big companies with tax abatements.
I really like this... It forces us to question our role in the universe. Whilst the pyramids have stayed, what would end up standing from the modern days?

The axolotl ratchet has been used in at least two different federated protocols that I am aware of. There is no plan to federate signal itself, but he not only allows, but seems to encourage the protocol's use elsewhere.

> (white sugar can scratch arteries)

I don't doubt that white sugar is damaging to arteries and effects the microstructure of arterial walls, but I'm skeptical that there's a statistically significant difference between white and brown sugar for cardiovascular health. Can you cite any studies that break out white vs. brown sugar?

White table sugar is nearly 100% sucrose and water, while brown sugar has a tiny percentage of molasses and iron, and perhaps traces of other minerals.

I'm skeptical that the tiny percentage of iron and molasses present in brown sugar is protective of arteries. Also, any sucrose in your blood is in solution, not crystaline. What's the mechanism for this "scratching", and why isn't it (as you imply) also present with brown sugar?

I'm not saying you're wrong, but the most plain reading of your post suggests a mechanism (physical scratching, presumably from microcrystaline sucrose) that doesn't make sense to me. Does the sucrose form some large complex with some serum protien, where it's formation is inhibited by something in the molasses present in brown sugar? (Unless someone is massively iron deficient and consuming massive amounts of brown sugar, white vs. brown sugar should have no measurable effect on iron levels in the body.) Or, did you not mean to imply that brown sugar is any better for your arteries than brown sugar?

At work, those times I put sugar in my coffee, I do use brown sugar, but I do it for the difference in flavor and recognize that when mixed into coffee, I'd likely fail a blind taste test. At home, I don't pay the extra cost of brown sugar.
It's a big forum. Sometimes waiting is hard, but initial voting patterns do not necessarily predict the long term outcome.

It can be interesting to watch it play out.
Most people consider their homes an investment, so it is (economically speaking) a business. You're paying the guy for his labor.

Your distinctions between an investment and a business, a contractor and an employee, are arbitrary legal definitions. They aren't economic ones.
That's cool. When I tried it last it required my phone to be on just like WhatsApp. I'll check it out again.

I still hope they use some of this cash to make a real iPad and Desktop app, though. I'd really love to use the service but those are deal breakers for me.
Their Android app at least is way too difficult to use.

I tried it with my friend some time ago and we just couldn't figure out in a reasonable amount of time how to add each other etc.

I consider both of us tech savvy and we have absolutely no trouble with other IM clients or more archaic stuff like IRC.

Full scale isn't part of my comment... your assumption. Anyway, here are historical precedents that illustrate my point. For each conflict ask yourself how it may have been different if the disparity in conventional capabilities had been great. In some cases I don't recall dates, but do recall severity of conflict:

US v. China - by proxy (Korean War)
US v. Russia - by proxy (Vietnam War)
US v. Russia - by proxy (Afghanistan Conflict)
India v. Pakistan
India v. China
US v. Russia - by proxy (1973 Yom Kippur War Brinksmanship)
That's why I didn't say 'Python has static typing', I said:

Yes, everything except the admonition against describing the weather is extremely common English-language writing advice, as mentioned in countless books and essays over the years.

I don’t understand why it’s such a taboo. Sperm donors are already selected based on favorable traits. If you’re a loser with no job or have a family history of diseases and cancer they do not want your sperm. And there’s nothing stopping people with poor genetics from breeding promiscuously with multiple women anyway, leaving behind single mothers in their wake. The Darwin Awards are a dark celebration of people dying in stupid avoidable ways and thus “removing themselves from the gene pool”.

People with excellent genetic traits need some sort of advantage to meet each other. The movie Idiocracy may have been a satirical comedy, but its message is actually not far from the truth of where we’re heading if someone doesn’t do something about improving the gene pool. To me, that is way more terrifying than genetically conscious dating.

Of course there is. That's why one of the cleverest parts of signal is the engineering to invalidate number 2. Moxie and signal are the world leaders in trying to make it impossible for the service to know who you communicate with... Even to the point of using the Intel secure enclave to audit the server software and validate that it doesn't peek.

This seems like the obvious answer. There was a consensus after WW II to push globalization. The theory being that international economic relationships would reduce chances of war. Plus dramatic improvements in shipping efficiency, through containerization and attendant automation. So yes, "a national analysis is insufficient in a global labor market."

Also, globalization has necessarily depended on reducing protectionism. And it's arguably been associated with declining nationalism. In a collective sense. As in, for example, American firms and their employees being loyal to each other. I believe that this sense of nationalistic loyalty peaked in the 40s and early 50s. Reflecting the war effort, of course.

I roll my eyes at a lot of the urban infatuation but I mostly agree. I've always felt that conventional suburbs brought together the worst of urban environments (you're in fairly close proximity with others) with the worst of rural living (you have to drive everywhere). I live in an exurb on a fair bit of land. If I were to live somewhere different it would probably be in a city or at least a town center of some sort.

[ed: aha! They didn't really support federation in a standards compliant way:

"However, since the Google Talk Service does not support server-to-server encryption via TLS (something that was required by RFC 3920 in 2004), a number of servers (including jabber.org) refuse to establish a connection since May 2014."

Wait, what? You could chat from you@example.com on your bespoke xmpp server and send messages to user@gmail without needing a Google account and vice-versa?

Was Google talk really so unpopular that I didn't seriously try to use it until it became the walled garden that didn't support server federation?
I don't view proxy wars any different from direct conflict for several reasons. First, its hardly a secret where support for proxy sources originates. Second, in many of these cases nuclear weapons were seriously considered or even threatened. Third, in many of these cases casualties were heavy for home country forces of one side.

Last time I was in Detroit the roads were the worst I'd ever seen. You couldn't even call them pot holes, they were just scars in the earth. For a place nicknamed The Motor City, it was a sad state of affairs.

And that's the crux of it. It's not just the money, in fact it's never the money for me. It's a total quality of life scenario. Being across a bridge from Windsor Canada is cool, the Detroit museum is a great place, and the area has a great lineage for quality pizza. But Detroit itself is like a hostile environment to me, where I can't even travel around without risking breaking my vehicle literally in half. I'd have to me making great money there, just to pay upkeep on vehicle maintenance.

> What are the benefits of decentralized servers over p2p?

* A server-based system gives you a well-defined secure place to keep an always-on copy of your data, with whatever physical/geographic/network security model you prefer... rather than smearing it across a bunch of handsets or laptops which could get lost/stolen/run-out-of-storage etc.

* Thin-client protocols like Matrix or XMPP are going to typically use way less battery and bandwidth than maintaining a full p2p mesh on a mobile device, which is generally desirable. The way to fix that in p2p is to introduce master nodes of some flavour... at which point you're back in a hybrid p2p/federated architecture again.

* A thin-client-first approach also means that you can easily support different clients (and bots/bridges etc) rather than the client being tightly coupled to a complicated p2p protocol.

To repeat: i'm advocating a hybrid p2p/decentralised approach - not religiously pure decentralisation, nor religiously pure p2p either.

> "Metadata concern is bogus" yet the linked documentation explicitly says bridges expose metadata, and that home servers expose metadata.

My point was that in the medium/long term we have a clear route to avoid having to expose metadata on servers.

> One advantage of Pond-hybrid is "Supports any and all Matrix clients via the existing standard client-server API". This means the issue is desire to remain compatible with insecure clients. This is lack of agility is not needed.

You're missing the point. There's nothing insecure about the clients. The whole idea of the PDF is to spell out that you could swap out a federated server for a local p2p-based server (perhaps even running in the client) whilst reusing all the same clients... which now magically become p2p (if desired). This agility is very desirable indeed, given the huge amount of effort which has now gone into writing good Matrix clients like Riot, nheko, Quaternion etc.

You could skip the "tr" part, as the API to query by hash prefixes not case sensitive, and once you have its results, you can use "grep -i" with the hash.
I grant that it protects against phishing, but I would cautiously suggest that sites that are smart enough to enable 2FA are smart enough to salt/hash/bcrypt/whatever best practice their passwords, so leaks are neutered. It doesn't not protect, so to speak, but the protection is likely to be redundant.

But it emphatically does not protect against keylogging, anyone who can install a keylogger on your computer can grab your password DB and your master password. This is exactly the scenario where you need actual 2FA.

Anyway, broader point: yes, it's a tradeoff, but the kind of people who needs explaining why a password manager is a good idea, do not understand enough to make an informed decision about these tradeoffs. And so, the responsible advice is to not use it.

I do know enough to understand these tradeoffs, and my conclusion is to keep password management and 2FA strictly seperate.
