I think you're just seeing two bubbles colliding.

For lack of a better term the New York bubble vs the Bay Area bubble.
Cannes is mostly about having a venue for film makers to find distributors, Netflix films already have a distributor (it's Netflix).

It's equivalent to asking why The Last Jedi or Black Panther aren't allowed to enter the competition.

It’s a New York, D.C., and London bubble, then, at the very least. (With strong support in Seattle, Dallas and Raleigh, too.)
If this is sarcasm, it's very subtle and the point is lost on me.

Did he claim otherwise?

He clearly said that they attempt to inflame both sides to grow the conflict.
You don't have to delete it. I signed in my Facebook account for a first time in about 5 years, and find I lose nothing. I did not unfollow anyone I followed, and spent 5 minutes reading about some recent news, feeling guilty of wasting that time.
That spokesperson should be ashamed of themselves. Absolutely disgusting.
Let me copypaste a part of a previous comment I made:

When compiling/transpiling/whatever between languages, I have found that relying on regular procedure calls and TCO is generally a lot simpler than having to force the looping facility of one language into the semantics of another language.

I have written a guile scheme macro that more or less copies racket's for loops, and there are a lot of subtle things that would make using something else than tail recursive functions hard to use since I would have to work around the implicit behaviour of whatever looping facility I am trying to use.
I grab a RX580 with a nice offert on black Friday. The best GPU that I brought on a long time. And works flawless on Linux.
I've worked in health care a couple of times now. And while the companies I've worked for have gone well beyond the minimum required for legal compliance, the scary bit really is the sorts of things you could, if you were lazy enough, do and still legally be compliant.
Individual or company bias? Does Google discriminated between their customers? I can't recall any political groups complaining Google wouldn't take their money.
The working definition of a "TV show" is a series with regular installments/showings overtime, or at least many shorter length shows. A "movie" is the opposite, with just one production film. This is flexible, of course, as a movie can have later installments, but it is not its primary purpose. There are many "movies" that never make it to the Cinemas because of bad production value, ie bad movies!

Your definition would call Netflix's recent film "Bright" a show, which of course it is not. Cannes is being ridiculous.

Ok, perhaps you are the best person to ask.

1. What was Mark Zuckerberg's response when people asked him if Facebook might be overstepping bounds in terms of data collection (shadow profiles)?

2. What did the company employees think of the backlash over their beacon project?

3. When Facebook told the EU that they cannot match FB user profiles and WhatsApp user profiles to create a single profile (remembering that they would be fined), what was the general consensus among employees? Did they know that FB had lied? Were they still OK with that? If they were, was there not a single person expressing dissent?

I sort of feel the same way, but they've just copied the Adobe and Autodesk licensing model, and its hard to blame them considering how well that has worked out for those other companies.
The list you mention was included in a mass-mail that Tumblr sent out yesterday to users that had interacted with any of those accounts (I know because like the author of the particle post we are commenting on, I too received the email; unlike the original poster, I cannot remember which of these ’blacklisted’ accounts I had interacted with).
I did, and GP said that firing to save face is unacceptable. While you said

>Not if the other option was China shutting down a bunch of Marriott hotels and hundreds of employees losing their jobs instead.

to which I said we don't know, and you saying so is a false dichotomy because there are often other options.
Mentioning to perhaps save time for others: just gave it a spin but it looks like there's no eslint support, and my project uses prettier/flow/etc all wrapped up into eslint.
I would expect a software developer to be able to write code from scratch (when necessary), but then again I'm old fashioned like that.

If journals are going to rehash Facebook blah word by word, syllable by syllable, then I expect free endorsements to alternatives. It's a small public service in exchange for the free content and clicks.
Yesterday Tumblur emailed this:

As part of our commitment to transparency, we want you to know that we uncovered and terminated 84 accounts linked to Internet Research Agency or IRA (a group closely tied to the the Russian government) posing as members of the Tumblr community.
The IRA engages in electronic disinformation and propaganda campaigns around the world using phony social media accounts. When we uncovered these accounts, we notified law enforcement, terminated the accounts, and deleted their original posts.
While investigating their activity on Tumblr, we discovered that you either followed one of these accounts linked to the IRA, or liked or reblogged one of their posts:

You aren’t in trouble, and don’t need to take any action if you don’t want to. We deleted the accounts but decided to leave up any reblog chains so that you can curate your own Tumblr to reflect your own personal views and perspectives.
Democracy requires transparency and an informed electorate and we take our disclosure responsibility very seriously. We’ll be aggressively watching for disinformation campaigns in the future, take the appropriate action, and make sure you know about it.

I think what you’re trying to say is that ALL property can be traced back to theft. So either sale cleans all of it or sale cleans none of it. We can’t have it both ways.
This is already happening and has been for a while. Not entirely sure why this is somehow a new thought, people have been proposing it for a long time, just few companies want to get their hands dirty.

> There has been an attempt by establishment Democrats and their sycophantic media outlets to discredit anybody left of Clinton as a Russian shill for some time now.

https://www.rawstory.com/2017/03/russians-used-bernie-bros-a...

> Supporters of Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders (I) reported earlier this month that during the 2016 election, their social media feeds and pro-Sanders Facebook groups were inundated with what they now believe were Russian bots spewing anti-Hillary memes including fake news stories about Clinton using a body double and murdering her ideological opponents. Over time the anti-Clinton online faction became known by the nickname “Bernie Bros.”

That was a Russian propaganda tactic which the Democrats/Media then amplified that on the assumption those were really Bernie supporters.

So...once again...its something credible being blown out of proportion, at worst.
Wow that was a great post. Thanks for sharing. Yes I agree proof of "work" is a misnomer and a red herring.

I heard an anecdote where the actual first movers on a new video feature was porn sites. They were smaller still, and probably had a more tolerant audience.
Maybe the internet was a bad idea.

At this point it seems an almost impossible effort to vet the information from anyone more than 1 connection from you, while putting fake information up is almost effortless.

That said, am reworking a similar site to allow all social auth as first class citizen (Microsoft AD+Outlook/hotmail, Facebook, Google & Twitter) - as well as supporting existing Email/Password auth. Will see how that changes things.

What if every user was willing to pay $5 per month for a "clean Facebook"...

The problem is that, to a sufficient degree, they're not. Likely because the value proposition (or its assurance) is a hard sell. And that hard sell limits network scale (and hence, value).

Mind, even free alternatives have exceptional difficulty in competing with scale. Viz, G+.
It's all fear, uncertainty, and doubt. Every institution is under attacked. Traditional media, entertainment, scientists, police, democratic representatives, intelligence agencies... now our digitally-dependent society is realizing we can't trust the wires. America is becoming schizophrenic.

Over 13,000 community-uploaded public datasets: https://www.kaggle.com/datasets

(I work at Kaggle)
First, people gave away their own data and their friends data to apps. Facebook does not just give this data away to whomever can make an API request. It is also against Facebook’s terms of service to sell or misuse that data, and it is now obvious how naive Facebook was in thinking that this would be enough to contain apps from doing so. Nevertheless, I think Facebook’s intentions were in good faith in that they were hoping other apps and their users could benefit (in a non-monetary way) from having limited access to user data.

Second, Google grants just as much access to your data via API, if not more, than Facebook. Using Google’s APIs, you can grant full access and control to your email, calendar, contacts, etc. If you think companies aren’t currently abusing that in ways that make Cambridge Analytica look like children, you would be mistaken.
No QA and not even a lengthy release process. The question always is - Are you done with the programming? Go release it.

Additionally, people are more tolerant of mistakes made by small companies. Features stopped working? Maybe couple of people will complain.

Google's features stopped working? Media, bloggers.. everyone will have an opinion on why this happened and how to resolve it.

internal spin.

When I worked at a Fortune 500 company during an economic downturn, we were simultaneously seeing endless austerity measures while being plastered with endless positive spin. The free pens and stuff disappeared. The new job listings shrank overnight from pages and pages to a handful. They cut back on janitorial service. There was a pay freeze. Etc.

But all the press releases and news articles being forwarded to our email was about how we flew up the Fortune 500 ranking (iow we were sucking less than other companies during the recession, even though the company shrank, because it's a relative ranking) and our CEO was named one of the biggest wealth builders in the nation and so on.

I was painfully aware of the disconnect. But I sometimes wondered if other employees really noticed or not. I never asked any of my coworkers. I felt like that would be a good way to end up eventually fired. But I wondered how many drank the kool-aid without noticing that it didn't jibe with the austerity measures we were seeing.

How I got the media to talk about my side project
How I got the media to write about me:

Hey everyone. Here's a repeatable, step-by-step process I figured out to get media to write about me, resulting in a backlink, traffic, publicity, and, of course, subscribers. I used this to get mentioned in MarketingProfs (a major marketing site) and Forbes.

I know it's long but I tried to make things as concise as I could.

First, you have to consider things from the journalist's perspective. Why should they write about you? Most journalists have "beats". That is, topics they cover. You need to have something that they like that they will cover (usually a piece of content). For me, I did original research. An easy way to validate this is to see whether they have written about similar things in the past. Remember, journalists get a lot of pitches. Most of them are not targeted.

A note on research. It's not nearly as intimidating as it sounds. There's a lot of public data out there. You can also analyze a small amount of data (like 100 rows of something). You can use free online tools to come up with some graphs.

Then, get a list of 50 journalists you think are a good fit.

Then, you want to follow them on Twitter, respond to a few of their tweets. This at least puts you on their map.

If you want them to cover a piece of content, ask them beforehand whether they'd be interested in the piece and some questions they have about the topic. Journalists like to collaborate on research.

Then, create your content with their feedback.

Finally, let them know. If you did it right, you'll have a few stories written about you.

Be sure to continue to nurture the relationships you've built.
What about Cocos2d-x?
It's the "self-hosting" part that's the "heavy lifting" for MongoDB. They could've also chosen a hosted Mongo service, and that would've worked too. The idea is to spend time focusing on your own product and do as little as possible outside of that core competency. Setting up, optimizing, monitoring, upgrading and everything else that goes into running your own database, however standard, falls outside of that core. The more you can do to avoid doing work that isn't directly building features and experience for your customers, the more you'll be successful.

By undifferentiated, they mean outsource anything that doesn't differentiate their own product offering. Build things that give you a competitive advantage over other products in your space. Outsource everything else because wasting work on it won't help you get customers. Of course DynamoDB is differentiated for Amazon, but it's undifferentiated for Intercom...it's just a persistence strategy that customers should never know about.
That’s possibly less of an accident, and more of a strategy.
