You're moving the goalposts. Your statement suggested you want a US-style "1st amendment" in Europe. I don't. That has nothing to do with "free speech" as a concept.

Under the US interpretation of free speech political donations are protected as "speech" and politicians can go on TV and say they want someone to be murdered and not face any consequences.

I'm German so you can imagine why I fundamentally disagree with that notion, even if our laws are sometimes a bit too strict (though that often has more to do with post-WW2 denazification than free speech in particular -- e.g. not being allowed to put nazi symbology in video games, not even as enemies).

UK libel laws and their advertising code are another example of European laws being a bit too strict. But even that is something I'd prefer over the "law of the strongest" in the US.

EDIT: Free speech is obviously a great idea and an important right, but the problem with freedoms and rights is that they can't be absolutes when you live in a society with other people you want to share those rights and freedoms ("your liberty to swing your fist ends where my nose begins"). Additionally some of those freedoms and rights are mutually exclusive so you need to define an order of precedence. Even free speech absolutists generally draw the line somewhere (e.g. generally violence isn't considered speech even if it is a form of expression and few people would defend the right to shout "fire" in a crowded building and not facing the consequences of the resulting mayhem).

In other words "being willing to defend free speech" is a meaningless platitude unless you first define what you consider the acceptable limits of that freedom.

Not working reliantly for me. Addresses that definitely exist are reported as not existing. No info on the checks used.

So, this could even just be a clever way to collect email addresses through a simple form.
Yes, that would be interesting. But it would require a massive research effort, where researchers feed the system with false data, and then, in an undercover operation, i.e. pretending to be customers, request back this data. I'm afraid that would be too much to ask from journalists.

On the other hand, it's exactly the kind of research I expect from privacy protection institutions.
You can but only when you're online. And in general everything can be gamed, including email, given you depend on someone in receiving information.

So FastMail's argument is just logically inconsistent. More, an agency problem is here.

AlphaZero is not general AI. It can play Go (and chess and shogi) but that's very literally all it can do- it can't process speech or recognise objects in images, or any other task you might choose to test it against. It is extremely powerful, but also extremely limited, in the same way that computers have been for a very long time.

For instance, computers are decidedly better than humans at arithmetic. Yet nobody (today) thinks that just because computers can do arithmetic very quickly and accurately, they are more intelligent than humans.

Is there anything special in Go or chess that makes a specific skill at them a necessary and suficient condition for general intelligence? We are impressed at the performance of AlphaZero because humans find it very hard to play Go etc well. On the other hand, we also find it extremely hard to, e.g. divide two arbitrary 100-digit numbers -but we are not impressed by a pocket calculator as much as we are by AlphaZero. Might there be an element of psychological bias in our ability to be impressed, then?

No, no, no. This trend of 'Phone UI' chat interfaces on desktop/laptop screens needs to stop. If you are going to all this effort to reverse engineer the protocol, at least make your front end customisable or at the very least IRCish in style.
Maybe the young risk too much. In that case, being more risk averse could be statistical advantage. There seems to be persistent underlying assumption that more risk taking is always better, that is unlikely to be true. Optimal risk taking amount is not necessary "highest possible".
And both standards are “good enough” for most use cases and are supported by an overwhelming majority of hardware devices. Once h264 goes off patent, the interest in more advanced formats will dwindle.

GP is pretty clearly talking about blaming the company (processes) and not individuals.

The entire post laments the fact that entities external to the company will repeatedly forgive the company if the company goes through the motion of publishing a blameless post-mortem. Even if those post-mortems repeatedly indicate the company really didn't learn anything, or change the processes that led up to the incident.

But by golly, they're forward thinking company, and therefore blameless.

Is that you Mr. Peterson?

But seriously though are you convinced that no worthwhile values exist outside of nationalism and religion? You seem to be interested in this topic so it strikes me as a bit willfully disingenuous for you to not see the low hanging fruit in all of your statements. Like, you clearly have your opinion and you're entitled to it obviously but have you tried at all to find counterarguments? Peterson's ideas have been pretty thoroughly analyzed and debunked outside of his echo chamber, they're just a straightforward google search away. If you really believe his writing you owe it to yourself to challenge his ideas.
so basically rent control for homeowners, or better put tax control. if anything the law needs to be fixed but before doing so there needs to be protection put in place so that jurisdictions cannot force people out by having punitive real estate tax rates. This usually can be done with a large deduction for the primary home. In my case; I am not in California; my home is worth X. Well the deduction in place drops its stated value by 40k which lessens any taxation.

We must understand that California was very different when laws like this were passed, they were abhorrent to a growing government. As we can see now they lost that fight and you can be sure the politicians would love prop 13 to be gone but before doing so something needs to be in place
I think you meant to say “strawpeople”. :-) But seriously, take a look at the Russian or Chinese revolution, and see who, predominantly, ended up in a ditch with a bullet in their head. In the case of Russia it was people who had barely above average wealth (successful farmers, small scale bourgeois, intelligentsia). In other words likely people like you.
While technically file extensions so far reflected the container used, rather than codec, I think it should be the other way around.

I see “regular users” making decisions based on container file formats all the time, as to whether the file will be playable on their favorite device: DVD player, smartphone, portable music player etc.

It’s not very reliable, or accurate, but if you see an .mkv that’s usually h.264 or hevc, .webm is vp8/vp9 and .avi will play on your DVD.

There’s really no technical reason why file extensions should reflect the container format.

If I rename “BunnyVideo.mkv” to “BunnyVideo.av1” VLC will still play it just fine. But now I can tell at first glance that it will not play on my legacy Smart TV or last year netbook with no hardware decoding.

Whether that AV1 video is actually in a MKV or WebM container doesn’t really matter at all to your average user. It only matters if it will play.

Maybe it would be even better to just have .av1.mkv instead, but double file extensions don’t work on Windows and people think it’s a trick to get you to run malware.

> And yet basic video and screen capture is not working for years now. Arbitrary rectangle capture still doesn't work on Ubuntu 16.04 in any tool I know of.

I'm curious, what tools have you tried? I ask because the default screenshot tool works perfectly for stills (including stills of video playing in a window or full-screen), and the few video screen recording tools I've tried all worked perfectly. At the moment I'm using Kazam on 16.04 with the default Nouveau drivers, and a quick test with Chromium playing a video stream + Totem simultaneously playing a local video file confirms that everything is captured no problem. Full screen, arbitrary windows, all tested and working.

Tl;dr try Kazam, unless I'm misunderstanding the issue you describe?

There are some changes to ceval in 3.8 that should make it a bit simpler:

The interpreter loop has been simplified by moving the logic of unrolling the stack of blocks into the compiler. The compiler emits now explicit instructions for adjusting the stack of values and calling the cleaning up code for break, continue and return.
Removed opcodes BREAK_LOOP, CONTINUE_LOOP, SETUP_LOOP and SETUP_EXCEPT. Added new opcodes ROT_FOUR, BEGIN_FINALLY, CALL_FINALLY and POP_FINALLY. Changed the behavior of END_FINALLY and WITH_CLEANUP_START.

It's not, necessarily.

It's a tradeoff between usability and security, and each site should make their own decision about what is right for them.

It obviously makes attacks like the one in the article easier, but there are other ways to mitigate that.

An example often given for when revealing an email is registered would definitely be bad is dating website and pornography websites - where identifying someone is a member alone could be embarrassing or compromising.

Outside of such scenarios, websites may decide the increased conversion from a more streamlined registration process and lower numbers of support requests for login issues outweigh the marginal security gains from hiding that information.

"The a7 III uses the Z battery, introduced in the a9 and also used by the a7R III. It's good for 710 shot per CIPA ratings with the a7 III, as its power requirements are less than the a9 or a7R III, both rated for 650 images per charge."

All of my Nikon DSLRs (D5000, D7000, D750) can shoot between 2-4k images on a charge, and I use a mix of official Nikon batteries and cheap eBay knock-offs. In general the cheap knock-offs perform better. If I had to change batteries every 500-600 photos, I would be constantly stressed during a job and probably flip batteries every time I had a minute free. If that's not enough juice for a photographer, the battery grip will get that number much higher (and provide stability when using heavier lenses).

I see a lot of articles talking about ad revenue. For most YouTubers ad revenue is minuscule compared to what they make on product placements. Someone in the lifestyle/beauty segment with say 300k subs on YT (and similiar IG following) might make 500$ in ads a month on YouTube but 8k to 10k per product placement. This doesn't include multi-post deals (usually YT and IG combined) that will yield (from what I have seen) 40k to 60k in collaboration with e.g. big beauty brands.

Apparently tries to resolve MX, connect and try to poke around. Surprisingly, the last time that trick worked reliably was in the early 2000s, because guess who also used the same trick? Yup, spammers - so most servers will either a) deny existence for any address, or b) claim existence for every address. And that's before greylisting and SPF and whatnot.

The only way to be sure that the address actually exists is to send mail and have the recipient actively respond - however, if there's no response, it can mean any number of things: no such address, message got lost, message got spambinned, message got deleted by recipient, recipient couldn't be bothered to reply.

In other words, do not expect certainty from e-mail.

Mostly as a consequence of a mismanaged monopoly held by EDP. Regulation didn't work, and we made it worse during the crisis by selling all of EDP (including REN, the electricity transport company) to private foreign entities. I don't see any hope of a more efficient market in the near future.

Not everything is poor management, though. The current infrastructure, which allows these records, is the result of a huge hydro-dam program in the 1950s and a very strong incentive for wind power in the noughties.
Ok the linked article seems to be a short synopsis of a book, one which I did not read nor have intention to.

But dear Lord the article was so full of government fluff, obvious and trite blather of what has been tried and failed, over, and over, and over again.

It is nothing but why we need government to fix the very problems it created, and makes even worse with its choking regulations, legislation, and self-serving laws.

My very own grandfather broke into the roofing business around age 11, growing up in abject poverty. He didn't much care for sitting in a school house. He made a good living eventually, becoming one of the largest employers in town, a respected local businessman who would hire anyone willing to work, and give them a fair shot.

Today, though, his life would be completely unable to be lived, legally, anyway. Between the government's silly attempts at paperwork for immigration tracking, taxes, labor laws, minimum wage laws, the list goes on and on and on, it would be impossible. The barriers to entry for the poor but motivated ensure nothing more than the permanent existence of the poor.

The article is frankly disgusting in its puerile and obviously wrong insistence that what we need is more of the above.
