The problem, for me (and I'm hardly an expert) is that you need a considerable amount of double speak to work through it.

Anonymous? No, this isn't going to help with censorship.

Crypto that's world changing? How we all forget history.

My problems with crypto run deep, but it's really a high-level poker game. I know I'm a sucker that doesn't know the rules, but 99% who's diving in aren't aware of this fact.

Distributed / decentralized internet? Ugh... Let's talk when our cell phones have 100tb of storage.

I've had the misfortune of working on crypto contracts. I'll never do it again. If you honestly believe your information is safe or if you believe the developers working on this stuff are l33t, I'm sorry, but I have to burst your bubble.

In my opinion, the tech is interesting in it's own right for research, but real-world uses has shown it to be dangerous, and I don't see that changing anytime soon.
No but recently I started using the App Store version of the Arduino IDE. It's been a lot less trouble to setup and deal with cross device. If more Apps moved to the Store I would consider using them over managing updates across all of my devices.
I consider them open now, in practice not law.

Despite also supporting amnesty, chain migration, and increased visa quotas I’ve been told I’m racist for wanting a secure border. Racist for not supporting border policies that create an underclass of undocumented, helpless workers.
We are hiring a Senior Software Engineer in Austin, TX at New Knowledge.

https://www.builtinaustin.com/job/engineer/senior-software-e...

New Knowledge is on a mission to defend public discourse. We build products that repair online communities, identify manipulation, and help them communicate more authentically. In a world where social media is being manipulated on a massive scale, this is no small task. We care about protecting communities, brands, and companies from being targeted by the spreading of disinformation. The kind of people who work with us have to be passionate about that challenge and mission.
So you're going to pay to use it right? If this imaginary product managed to get 1% of Facebook to hand over their credit card. That would be the most wildly successful pay to use application in existence. Will never happen. Social Media sites rely on mass adoption, among those who refuse to pay for just about anything.
It is not "are allowed to see" but "chose to consume".
This whole "fake news" jazz is for the wrong reason.
So there's lots of talk about how we're going to regulate/manage data protection going forward but what are we going to do about the stuff that is already out there? I mean HIV status is a pretty toxic thing to just be floating around. It doesn't seem that we can even be sure who has this data and who doesn't.
Also, many mobile users name their device their whole name, effectively deanonymizing all their app usage for the massive ecosystem of marketing companies out there. Having worked in the mobile marketing industry I was shocked at how many people were doing this and probably had no idea this was the case.
This is deeply troubling. Anyone who uses Tinder or any other dating site should try requesting their data and realize that these services could likely label you a sexual deviant, racist or otherwise based on your swipes alone.
Define proven to be bad. What is the metric there? And note also who considers it "proven bad". It was winning and also the better ui at the time. It did indeed had bugs, but not really that many of them affected most users - who were fully comfortable restarting and go. The viruses were issue through.

The thing with "people making fun" through is that a lot of it was by-product of culture war between linux and windows world. between radical ideological open source and closed source - where Microsoft engaged in a lot of ugly tactic. Between techies who wanted tech focused on their needs and commercial company that cared significantly less about needs of admins, tinkerers and such.

Meaning, the jokes were much more political and much less technical. They were often result of people hating Microsoft (recall their ugly tactic).
Then lobby to change the rules. Don't ignore the rules just because you feel you're special.

The key thing not being pointed out is that these papers are generally printed in a journal or as proceedings to a conference. So there needs to be a hard deadline by which the work needs to be complete, and seen as valid, for printing. So in that sense, there needs to be a peer review, because there aren't any take-backs at this stage.
And I think you need to read a whole thread before jumping in hours later and repeating lots of stuff already said.
They have the option of not sending HIV status to any third party.
I feel that's just hyperbole. Collecting hotel taxes, for instance, would not have affected AirBnB one bit.
I've been thinking about this quite a bit, but do you think anyone would actually pay for social media where they actually can own the data? I think the use case might be difficult given the convenience and 'free' aspect of Facebook, Twitter, etc.
As an alternative, https://zube.io/ is a pretty decent paid service to view/manage GitHub issues on a Kanban board.
NEX Traiana | Software Architect | Tel-Aviv, Israel | Full-time, Onsite | http://www.traiana.com/

Traiana is a leading fintech company, and the messaging backbone behind a considerable amount of the worldwide FX traffic, among other market assets.

The company is going through a major tech transition, as the current systems are starting to choke at the scale and new business avenues, which is usually a good problem to have.

We're building a team of software and infrastructure experts to lead the way in this journey - having complete independence within the organization, and virtually no technological constraints.

As far as 'feeling like a startup' but having the resources of a major company - I'd consider this a dream position.

> 1366x768 is a resolution from 2002 or thereabouts.

In 2002, the most common resolutions were 4:3, not 16:9, not only because notebooks were not mainstream yet.

> 4GB [RAM] was common in desktop computers in 2005.

That's the time when notebooks became mainstream iirc. I purchased a gaming notebook in 2006, it had 1 GB RAM. I also bought a midrange notebook in 2009 which also came with 1 GB. (I later upgraded to 2 GB aftermarket.)
CNN is a network. It is not station ownership.

Stations have obligations in return for their licensing. Some of which require them to serve the public good. Local newscasting falls in that category.

Sinclair is turning that "public good" into propaganda. This is counter to the license terms. At least, in my opinion. Maybe we'll see that addressed, in court, at some point.

There are also marketshare caps, created to prevent this kind of bias from gaining dominance of the broadcast market. Sinclair has been lobbying and buying its way towards circumvention of those caps.

Numerous studies indicate that, with all the changes in media, many people still go to their local broadcast news station for their news, and that they have a higher level of trust in it than in other sources.

Arguably, when you turn on CNN or Fox -- networks, that cable and satellite providers can choose to carry along with however many other channels they want to sell you -- you know what you're getting.

This, by contrast, is a creeping menace of bias, masked as your trusted local news source. (And as other "public service" broadcasting. Whereas people reasonably argue that the demonstrated bias to one political agenda, as well as the masking of the source of said programming, is not "public service".)

The "I" in HIPAA seems to go ignored when talking about health data. If that letter doesn't apply, then HIPAA almost certainly doesn't matter.

On the other hand, compare Windows desktop marketshare with that of macOS. When you're tiny, limited choices makes sense. When you're huge, product differentiation makes sense. When you're a premium product, you can charge whatever you want. Windows appeals to people who spend $0 on an OS and also people who can spend $300 on an OS. If they cut that down to one product, they'd be losing money.
I think what you're describing is a subset of the character of your neighborhood changing in a way you don't like. For example, your neighborhood becomes expensive, or gentrified, or crime filled or you don't like the noisy guy who moves in upstairs from the apartment you're living in. Or the deli you like downstairs closes and is replaced by a hair salon and you didn't sign up for that. These are problems that are part of life, you can't control everything outside of what you own. I wouldn't personally expect to legislate it any more than if my gf broke up with me because of Tinder or FB or something its just life.
They don't need to be doing DNS proxying, they can just inspect port 53 traffic -- unless the site you're visiting supports DNS over TLS, then you're not hiding anything from your ISP, since they'll see the DNS query packet hitting the www.porn-site.com nameserver.

However, if have a local TLS nameserver, you can set it up to query 1.1.1.1 over TLS, then your ISP can't see any of your DNS queries.

So you need to decide who you trust more -- your ISP or a DNS provider (or a VPN provider).
You're barking up the wrong tree here. DNS is already an inherently centralized service -- using one company's resolvers instead of another doesn't change that.
aaaahhhh, the good old perl. I am glad to see it's not dead.
So Limbaugh measures art for how hard it is to make. Peeling potatoes is hard (I've been told). I would not claim that peeling potatoes is an art. Same with painting a house, or mining coal.

I disagree that the only thing we get from experiencing art is "oh wow, that look hard". IMO the appeal of art is that it either makes you feel or think in a certain way. This "definition" feel closer to the reasons one would want to experience the creations of others, it also gives some explanation for why one would enjoy the oft ridiculed avant-garde stuff.

Plus every designer I've listened to has told me that the "weird stuff" eventually feeds into and enhances the "normal stuff".
I believe HIV status is a special protected piece of information and consent needs to be given before you can share it.

It's one thing to put your message out there without having to constantly inform everyone you're biased, as CNN does. It's quite another to put your message out there and insist that everyone else is biased and therefore unfair and untrustworthy. This is what Fox News and Sinclair are doing. They don't want you to watch anything else, because it gives away the con.

> What's yours?

That's the thing about bias: It's multifaceted, and often subconscious. I could list some biases I'm suspicious I have, but this list would be incomplete and inaccurate.

Why do you need to share HIV/status as part of performance analysis of a web portal or app?
The reasonable tradeoff, in this case, would be to continue using the third-party analytics saas, but exclude personally identifiable information, or at the very least, exclude this extremely sensitive information.
AFAIK the only issue that could make AppImage to not work is lack of FUSE support, but any modern distribution should have that enabled.

Beyond that, AppImage is really just a container. It is still up to the developer to bundle the necessary dependencies (libraries, runtimes, VMs, data files, etc), but this is something they'd need to do with Windows too.

What problems do you have with it?

The above is a completely fraudulent article that was accepted for publication to demonstrate the counter point to your argument. The article is literally gibberish, but got through 'peer-review'. I know the lead author on this one and she did this to make a point about the inconsistency of peer review. The article so clearly fake that its laughable, but that is the point.
"They are instead doing the same thing Republicans did to Obama, refusing to compromise in order to whip up their base."

Democrats are in the minority though, not the majority like the Republicans had during Obama's tenure. If they want something done then they can do it.

Use the services you mentioned but DO NOT SEND HIV DATA TO THE ANALYTICS COMPANIES. Holy hell, how hard is that? Just omit that part.

Built For Me Inc. | Seattle, New York, San Francisco, Remote (US-only) | Senior Front-end Software Engineer | Full Time

Who we are: We are a small company loathe to use the word “startup”. The phrase that most aptly describes us is “boutique consulting firm” as we are currently working on select software consulting projects while concurrently laying the foundation for a stand-alone product which will focus on enabling business workflows and growing workplace productivity. We are being smart in our approach balancing software consulting with our own product. We balance both to pay ourselves well and support our vision for the future. We have an excellent four person team in place with Big-4 backend experience. We're looking to get one final person in place to help us define what a modern and maintainable front-end stack should look like and to help build our product. Hopefully that's you.

Who you are: An incredibly motivated, amazingly talented full stack engineer whose abilities truly shine on the front end. You know React, Webpack, CSS, Sass, JSX, and the other standard front-end technologies we aren't as familiar with. You are a self-starter who can work with little supervision. You are meticulous about details and sufficiently passionate to get things done, yet know when to pivot to a more experimental move-fast mode. You should be a great teammate who looks to make your colleagues more productive because you know they are doing the same for you. You love the state-of-the-art and yet understand the danger of being there and can articulate the reasons why.

> You too are collapsing the narrative to "NRA is evil."

I'm not sure if the NRA is evil or not. I don't think "evil" is a very good label for Atheists to use, and I count myself among that cohort.

I think the NRA's published position matches with my account. I do not think it's a helpful or reasonable position.

> Pretending that the NRA is a rogue organization that doesn't represent a huge segment of the population is disingenuous.

Quite the contrary, I think the NRA represents a rather small segment of the population. They're trying to broaden that segment with significant cash outlay and with very misleading arguments that turn things like, "Bans on modifications that allow semi-automatic weapons to achieve >2r/s sustained fire rates" into "They hate our freedom and they're coming for our guns and it's time to strike back." That's a chartiable reading of NRATV's current message.

> Tell me again how Trump is a fascist and neo-Nazis are taking over the country.

"Taking over" is certainly not the word. "Have always been here and are increasingly more exposed." Unless of course we ignore the continued defense of openly self-labeled neo-nazi groups right out of Trump's own mouth, this is a factual reading of the situation.

> is under the thumb of Russia because of pee-pee tape

Any president would fall prey to this rumor. It's hilarious. I wish Obama had a pee-pee tape scandal. It's quintessentially American.

What's I hope less so is the direct and numerous conflicts of interest that have been poorly handled by the Trump admin, the numerous (denied) allegations of campaign finance violations that were then not only proven, but plead guilty to by Trump's cohort.

Again: you're equivocating based on utterly meaningless and boring things. Sure, some leftits are dumb. For the most part, the center-left media ignores the majority of these stories after they come out (as has been pointed out in other places, Fox brings up the pee tape more over time than any other outlet). Nor have I actually ever even heard the phrase, "Trump is a germophobe" come up except as a refutation.

All this is smoke and mirrors, and an attempt to deflect from the truly frightening admissions that folk who ran the Trump campaign's media have made. They're literally suggesting the use of human trafficking to run a sex entrapment extortion game on politicans and you're like, "Well the libs believe in a peepee tape." I'm sure some libs believe in UFOs too, but this doesn't dismiss or excuse the facts at hand.

That's not true at all. If I say "x said y", and don't tell you that "y said z", then that is biased, while telling you only the truth.
When I bought my father a new laptop a couple of years ago, I specifically looked for a model with 1366x768 resolution because a lot of legacy apps he depends on for his work have terrible HiDPI support. "Upgrading" to 1920x1080 with HiDPI turned off (100% scaling) would have made everything too small for his eyes.

Moreover, even apps that do support HiDPI often look like crap at 125% scaling -- the default setting on Windows 10 for most 1920x1080 laptops these days. And if you go up to 150%, you only get 1280x720 effective pixels. That's even less information density than 1366x768. Most legacy Windows apps expect to be able to use at least 768 vertical pixels.

The search turned out to be more difficult than I expected, because most high-end PC laptops with good build quality had already transitioned to 1920x1080 by early 2016. I finally found the perfect model for my father and told him that he should expect to use it for a long, long time since it's the last laptop that will ever support his apps. Fortunately, it's a well-built Broadwell i5 with a number of upgradable components, so it should last well into the early 2020s.
It's one (sinclair) pretending to be many (local news stations).

Standard advice is check multiple sources. This pretends to be "multiple sources" when really it's just one.

Sinclair is effectively and echo chamber on TV. Web standards, don't like it, navigate else where. TV Standards, change the channel, get the same stuff. See how that is much more dangerous?
