Why am I not surprised that a European is saying that the government-backed "broadcaster" are all so good, and evil private American new sites are bad.

Nowhere in that comment I can find a reference to American (evil) news sites. There are more than enough private news sites based in Europe, so I wonder why you are so hell-bent on making this an EU vs US thing.
Most EU residents will read news in their own language (which in most cases isn't English).
No, the key point is: She was in a situation where whether Backpage existed or not, she would still be doing sex work. With Backpage, she could screen her clients instead of approaching strangers at a gas station not knowing if she would live to see the next morning.

Why does anyone have to do 'sex work'?

The argument "I'm going to do it anyways, so you might as well make it safe and convenient for me" doesn't sound very persuasive to me, especially if we generalize this principle.
It's unclear to me how to interpret the result. It makes sense to test the influence of drugs on gut microbes, but to put the effect into context I'd be interested in the effect of, for example, normal food. How many species of gut microbes are affected by apples or coffee or whole grain bread? I also imagine that eating fermented foods causes a slaughter in your gut as the different microbes battle for dominance.
It's easy to see how "the Internet would become a noticeably nicer place" could be true while "some of the world's [previously] most popular services would operate" could be false at the same time.

> Moscow metro has 250 stations on 3 times as much area (why did NY get to 750 stations?) and annual ridership of 2.4 billion.

Perhaps area is not a representative metric since you have to factor in population density when deciding where to site stations. Wikipedia says that NYC Subway is 380.2 km (236.2 mi) long while Moscow Metro is 364.9 km (226.7 mi) long, so the two are close in terms of route length. Also, Moscow beats out New York in terms annual ridership: 2.4b vs 1.8b.

This actually brings up a point that was made in a cambridge analytica post. If personal information is deleted after it has already trained a dimension-reducing model, is it really deleted?

If Google and Facebook see everything because of oauth, we can ask them what data they have and tell them to delete it, but they won't be deleting whatever models they've been training about us.
English isn't my native language. I'll tell you my high school story.

There were some kids who started to speak perfectly in 2 years. And then some who even 10 years later still struggle. And probably have mental problems due to it.

People who didn't have family here mostly interested with strangers, who all spoke English. They became fluent.

People who had family here spoke English only in context of school in limited sentences. They struggle even after college.

People who did worst were who had family here, and were only friends with people from their own country. Most didn't go to college.

People who were in ESL did worse than people in regular English. Mostly they had less opportunities to speak their native language and didn't learn bad grammar rules. Most grammar rules are broken at some point.

Learning to speak by reading is a crime in first place.

> Why does anyone have to do 'sex work'?

The same reason people need to do any kind of work; because we are living in a society where he economic system requires most people to sell labor of whatever kind they can that is valued by others in the marketplace in order to survive.

EDIT: And for some people, given that requirement, sex work is the option where the undesirability of doing the work combined with the pay for doing it leaves it the rational choice. In some cases, it's also the least socially objectionable option practically open.
My experience with off-shoring teams and what went wrong
I'd initially contested the idea of copyright protecting code in my above comment but decided to redact it to see which direction this conversation would take.

(Tangent: Trade secrets protect knowledge implemented within my spheres of trust, i.e. "my systems.")

Copyright protects the literal documentation/expression of knowledge, such as an algorithm, not the knowledge itself. As an example, reimplementing a novel algorithm in a different language or over a different framework will likely be enough to subvert copyright protection over the code itself.

Copyright will ineffectively protect novel algorithms, whereas patents do a good job of protecting these algorithms in well-exposed contexts e.g. client-side from unauthorized imitation and usage day zero (or, more realistically, day 30). Barring a tactical or strategic error in the approved patent — a wonderful example of this, if I recall correctly, is the Swype patent¹ which prompts the user to pick a word rather than guess one for the user — the patent will effectively cover the algorithm in any implementation for the statutory duration.

A separate issue: "All a patent does is let you have a lot of time and money for an option to sue some types of companies trying to clone your idea. But companies are all about the execution."

That's the use case that garners the most press coverage. The sort that's more prevalent and far less noisy is licensing, and this happens far, far more often, and generally with not so much as a peep in the press. In fact, this is one survival strategy used by some startups as they pivot when they've created novel technologies but have devised ineffective business models around them. This moots the following statement: "For any startups here thinking patents are a good use of their time - think again." — it really depends on how the patents are acquired, such as through deferred equity compensation. I'd argue against doing so in cash, but doing so with equity could make sense especially if the startup's novel ideas are expected to be executed in untrusted (read: client, or "not my systems") environments.

My main argument is that software patent durations need to be cropped. Could be three years, could be five, but given the pace of software development, twenty is patently (ahem) anti-competitive in the software world. That's the argument I'll stand by unless anyone has a proposal to protect and incentivize the creation of novel algorithms without the use of patents.

Source: the numerous IP lawyers I've worked with during both my day job and consulting engagements. But I'm not an attorney, which means there's a nontrivial chance I got some of the nuances wrong, but I'm willing to attach my name to the overall message.

The current Android approach of granting all permissions the app need at installation time leads to a lot of abuse like this. Just ask for everything because the user just wants to install it and does not read the permission dialog anyway.

The current Apple system is slightly better: when the app asks to use one capability (camera, smartphone, contacts) the user is prompted to Grant permission the first time this capability is requeated by the app.

This approach should be further developed with prompt dialogs to continue allowing the app to use the requested capabilities.

Examples:

The App XYZ is requesting read and write access to your contacts. It was granted access on {date} and has read 224 phone numbers, 121 names and 56 addresses and modified two contacts.

Continue allow access? Disallow? Report?

App XYZ is requesting access to microphone. In the last month it accessed and recorded 342 hours of microphone.

Continue allow access?Disallow? Report?

App XYZ is accessing your geolocation in the background. Permission was granted on XXX. During the last month it accessed to your geolocation approximately 461 times every day.

Continue allow access?Disallow? Report?

Apple Goole and others don't have to get on the way of every users all the time with these prompts. They can identify at which time to show this prompt based on analytics (how many users already reported this app etc). They can also identify users who are more privacy aware and that will be glad to read carefully these dialogs and report wrongdoing, and send more prompts to these users.
So? What’s your point here?

I'm sure you meant this reply to be constructive, but without describing the experience in question or saying which category from your link you think applies here, it doesn't convey anything.

That wasn't the most even-keeled response, and it's past the edit window. What I mean to say is that I've never seen anything but a small codebase that couldn't use some in-code explication.

Clear code provides a clear "how". Good test coverage can act as documentation of the proper behavior and help prevent regressions. But I don't see how it follows that clean code makes the location of each implemented feature obvious. It doesn't seem like it would be inherently true.

The article doesn't mention how great this could be for reducing transmission of the common cold! I hate signatures, especially ones at a drugstore where every single person has to use the same digital pen.

Since Square is still requiring signatures though, we can add this to the endless list of things that Jack Dorsey is fucking up.
Well, I kind of think of it as a distribution, just like debian, or mint, or whatever. Even though they all say their the best Linux, as if that is somehow tautological. The nRF52832 can do both Bluetooth and ANT, because they share common lower level protocols.

I haven't used ANT in a project yet, but I've worked at places that have, just on other teams. It has a more restrictive license, and you have to sign NDAs to even get the key binaries. Thats not to say that Nordic's mainline BLE is open source, but the closed source binaries are freely distributed.

My educated guess though is that Bluetooth developers have "tricked themselves" into thinking they've mastered a design, when they've actually just learned a little more about todays implementation. But as any nordic developer knows, focusing for any measureable amount of time on SDK12 just means you're gonna be super pissed when you hear about SDK13, and thats because nRF decided to totally rewrite SDK14, which will eventually fail hard enough long enough to convince them to spin up into SDK15.

But like they always say, Trust us, we only hire the best.

Its funny - I do bring bags, but often I get more than one or two items. Aka I'll often get more than planned, as I look for sales.

Regardless, and to the point the whole line is slowed down by this transaction. Meaning every time I went to the store I had to wait an extra few minutes for this.

Moving back to Illinois recently, I find it amazing that the lines most move at least 3× faster. Probably in part due to the more "let's get shit done" attitude of the Midwest, but also the lack of bag related questions.

I then come home with my paper bags and recycle them. It honestly seems like more harm to the environment the waste of time + the polyester bags we buy instead
The converse is also true -- a wide range of drugs are subject to metabolism by gut microbes. This can throw off plasma concentrations and reduce effectiveness, or cause unwanted side effects or unexpected toxicity in the worst cases.
Yes, I appreciate that it enables more effective sex work and likely makes her specific case slightly safer. This argument could be used for a multitude of illegal acts, e.g. steroids, heroin, digital piracy, etc. It doesn't change the reality that society has agreed that this act is illegal and should not be enabled.
