It's not only much simpler, it's the only action that actually makes any sense. Obviously, people should be given the ability to hide and ignore things they don't want to see, but what's the point of a mode in which I simply have to log out to view your content?

There's an enormous difference between, "I am offended by X, so I don't want to see it" and "I am offended by X, so I don't want them to see me (unless they simply log out)."

That feature has never made any sense.
What non-multilingual country (e.g. Switzerland) manages to teach foreign languages (other than English) to a reasonable degree of competence to a substantial portion of its population? I can't name one.
I found myself paying upwards of $100 monthly in these small incurring charges until my credit card was lost and they were all cancelled. I'll answer with what main services I used to pay for and what I replaced them with. Evernote got replaced by OneNote. It's not an equivalent, but it gets the job done. I moved from lastpass once they changed their subscription model to the free tier. I'm considering moving to bitwarden's free tier. I'm somehow unable to get together the few hours it will take to migrate a handful of sites and email accounts from my 1and1 site to something less painful, but every time I try to move, it becomes a small nightmare.
Interesting. How does the Go code interface with that?
Well it gets defined in the article as 'economic value' not necessarily building businesses using the platform company's features.
So, can Twitter block people?
I mean... you could replace javascript with any other programming language and achieve the same thing. The choice of javascript as the language with which to access the standardized APIs is arbitrary. Browsers could have equivalently chosen any other sufficiently similar language, like Lua or Python.
where is the source code? How would I create a node to connect to the "blockchain" without downloading the app? Otherwise, Isn't this just taskrabbit running on an inefficent database?
MySQL has close to feature parity in terms of JSON functionality too.
Ahh, right you are. That is an important distinction. Still, it seems a little odd to me that it results in the same thing and is treated differently. What if a government asked Facebook to ban someone and they complied, is that Facebook doing it or the government.

Federal Judge Rules Trump May Not Block Critics on Twitter
"Django is a free and open-source web framework, written in Python, which follows the model-view-template architectural pattern. It is maintained by the Django Software Foundation, an independent organization established as a 501 non-profit. Django's primary goal is to ease the creation of complex, database-driven websites."

The flashcard is uhh, close?
My problem is not as much with the language but with the entire platform, I would like the DOM to evolve too, so far only the language was updated.

As a small example I would like to have a built-in dropdown/select that I can css it to my needs then to create my own using nested divs or use one made by others that may have corner cases or is not efficient.

I would also like some standard ways to show a modal, basically more standard APIs to be added to address the most needed things.
See above comments. The case doesn’t say what you think it says - it’s government that isn’t allowed to foreclose access, so the underlying cause here is Carolina’s violating legislation.
If your account gets banned, you're unable to communicate with the government (since it is established that Twitter is the president's official communication medium). Wouldn't it thus be a violation of the first amendment?
You posted a link to a case involving a law in North Carolina. Facebook was not party to the case.

Would you please quote (from the link you posted) where it says that Facebook banned said user?
Even if true, that's a totally subjective standard that can't be applied consistently. One person's "political speech" is another person's "troll."
jsonb functionality in PG is fantastic. It does everything youd expect, plus you can do a lot of other nifty things with it that you normally cant do with relational dbs very easily.
Trump cannot claim that his personal twitter account is solely his personal opinions and thus can do whatever he wants with it, whilst at the same time using it as a platform for public policy announcements and political speech.

If instead he had two accounts, one in the capacity of the POTUS and another as his own, then you may have a point. But that isn't the case.

>Saying something loud and often enough is all you need.

Depressingly true, but keep in mind that words < pictures < video when it comes to provoking an emotional reaction.

>Also, if the US military did spot a deep fake, do they have the trust for people to believe them?

Depends on how their deepfake detection method works, if it's opensource, or at least publicly available and verifiably functional, then who wouldn't believe them? No one thinks their GPS is lying to them.
> Drumpf

On a tangent, what is the deal with the "Drumpf" thing? It was his family name some time ago, so is this just the other sides' "Barack Hussein Obama" or is there more to it?
Well I for one think that it's not really "cool" to just copy the name for more or less the same thing.

BTW, it also appears there is an active US trademark (#78010053) for "centrifuge" in the computer database context. Isn't that an issue, too?
That's generally the route I've gone in the past, particularly for complex data models. The entity has a uuid field with a unique constraint along with an auto-incrementing int/bigint for a primary key. The UUID is what gets exposed for any external/API usage, but all internal join logic leverages the int primary key.

That way you mitigate the potential performance impact of doing complex joins on UUID fields. While also gaining a bit of flexibility in any future change management process by decoupling your internal database ids from any publicly exposed id. So instead of e.g. having to coordinate with external applications to ensure things don't break when you switch your id from an int to a bigint, you keep the uuid consistent and internal database optimizations and changes stay transparent to stakeholders of the database.
yeah sorry, got apparent loudness and amplitude confused.
Aside: I'm always surprised how few people notice that e.g. "cos" is rendered differently to "\cos" in TeX; for a discipline largely characterised by attention to detail, almost no programmers seem to notice.
And again, are we to assume that it is you who will decide who is a fascist and who is not?

And why such a discrimination of communists, who are far more deadly and dangerous than any "fascist" (your Soviet terminology is showing; surely you mean nazis of different stripes, not comparatively vegetarian Italians).
The realization that those tweets are not really aimed at him might shock you.
For one thing, web assembly's architecture more closely matches the traditional backends that language designers are familiar with. Compiling to code to a byte code is a pretty much solved problem, and we have compilers that do this. Finally, while web assembly may not be faster than JS (although that really remains to be seen), it is faster to load.
>1) Are you allowed under the GDPR to ask for additional information (i.e. date of stay in this case)?

You can ask for whatever you like. If I hold any data about you, I have to provide it. It is my responsibility to either store personal data in a form that is amenable to access requests by data subjects, or delete it immediately.

>2) If you stick the original in the shredder, you are removing much more than just the requestor's data.

There is no "right to retention" under the GDPR. Unless I am obliged to retain that particular data under some other legislation, the GDPR requires me to retain it "for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data are processed". The regulations specifically require you to delete personal data as soon as possible. Throwing the whole damned book into the shredder is not only permissible but actively encouraged.

The quote is "A platform is when the economic value of everybody that uses it, exceeds the value of the company that creates it." While toothbrush users may derive some sort of personal "economic value" in a very abstract sense, I think it's clear that the quote is about the sort of economic value that is defined by earnings.
There are all sorts of sticky issues that come up with no good solution when you use a private account for official business. I remember many years ago, when this was a major issue in a long-forgotten US presidential election.
The thing about metaphors is that they're just metaphors, not equalities.
If that's the case, it is likely he can just continue to block people, I don't think he's going to unblock people suddenly because of this. If he is basically immune to most lawsuits (in general - I'm sure at some point something will break that line) then why would one judge's ruling have him change his behavior. He's pretty critical of judges already.

On the other hand, if the judge wanted to see this change, requiring Twitter to both remove (his) block button and unblock all existing users (from his account only) would more likely happen.

Most politicians don't use their Twitter feed to make policy, like Trump does. If you run a widget business, and Trump makes a tweet that says, "I ban all widgets, especially widget company x", you should have the right to see that from the source.

That's the distinction the judge made - Trump uses his feed as an official government policy mouthpiece.

I feel the same way a lot of the time.

What has helped me is to get better about goal setting. For me this means having some large goal that is easily associated with personal desire. Then decompose that into smaller goals. These smaller ones are one step removed from the base desire, and as such need a little effort to figure out how to attach the goal to desire.

I keep breaking down the goals until they are a size that I can accomplish in a day. Often that's too small a timeline but that's what I aim for.

At each step of the break down, I make an effort to attach that goal to personal desire. Whether the desire is related to the overarching desire for the top goal doesn't matter so much, but it does have to have a desire component.

Sometimes the desire attached to a goal is to end the day feeling like I have made progress. That's it. The whole desire for that goal is in the achievement.

And frankly, achievement is a huge motivator for me. If I feel like I am spinning my wheels, it makes me what to stop and do something that isn't wasting my time.

Breaking the goals down into smaller goals that work on shorter timelines allows you to get that dopamine hit from achievement. You can end the day feeling pleased and relaxed. And you can wake up excited that you have an achievable goal to work on for that day.
To be fair, the language is in better shape today than it has ever been. The ecosystem, that is another matter.

It's always surprised me that Yelp, like Flickr, and other early services, became stagnant when the mobile transition happened, and failed to leverage the opportunity.

Why didn't Yelp early on see that they could become OpenTable, or GroupOn? In China, services like Dianping combine all three plus mobile payments: Restaurant reviews, booking, discounts, and payment, and even delivery services.

Surely Yelp could have seen how other crowd sourced content farms became commodities? Yelp is trying to blame their problems on Search, but the real problem to me is that they failed to adapt their business model in the face of a sea change in computing and from mounting pressure from competitors like TripAdvisor.

The Yelp CEO seems to be indulging in the classic approach when your business model fails to resort to patent lawsuits, copyright lawsuits, or begging anti-trust regulators for regulatory capture.
Government is doing it. If Facebook is doing it at the direction of a government entity and would otherwise not do it (and this is where I would expect case law to get into the contextual details of implicit/explicit direction etc) then government is acting in violation of the first amendment.
What I teach is largely about repositioning yourself and focusing on the value you create vs just the tech. Not surprisingly, few freelancers focus on business outcomes. Higher budgets and pay are a natural side effect of doing that.

I don't want cities to be able to negotiate "under the table" or without public oversight at all. Encouraging this sort of antics is corruption of the system and many large cities already have that in abundance.

Apple's system is only smarter if you think defrauding the public is good business.
Taking this idea to its most extreme expression, we would end up saying that a minority persecuted by a democraticrally-elected government is to blame for its own persecution, as it failed to convince others to vote against ethnic cleansing.
It doesn't result in the same thing. If Facebook bans someone, they can't log in. If the state bans someone, they can be fined or jailed. And in this particular case, he was banned from all social media and a bunch of other websites.

Oh there's definitely some path of legal wrangling that may end up compelling Twitter to do something here. In the end whether that's true or not will simply come down to a Judge and if Twitter wishes to fight further (eventually to the top court) or stop and give in. It doesn't have to be written in the constitution for someone to be compelled to do something wacky in this country.
I am not legal expert but it makes perfect sense that any government official must not deny access to information to any citizen which is easily available to another.

Blocking means other person can not see trump's tweets. I believe Trump can always mute other people.

Let us consider the following scenarios :

- Trump blocks only black people on Twitter.
- Hawaii's missile alert systems issues a real missile alert on their Twitter but Mr X does not get it because he was blocked by them.
- Mr. Joe goes to local DMV to get a driving manual. DMV clerk closes the window on his face and refused to give him the manual.

How is twitter scenario different here ?

Just yesterday I listened to Skeptoid podcast episode on this topic [1] and today viola. The conclusion from Brian Dunning in that Skeptoid episode is also mass hysteria.

I do also like the psyops disinfo theory - as stated elsewhere in this thread, suppose it was some other less respected nation that was making claims that their diplomats were victims of a mysterious sonic weapon. The claim would be poorly received. Personally there's a deeply appealing irony in the mass credulity being something like an even more massive mass hysteria.

/r/science should absolutely get to do that.

I should clarify here. If a specific general topic subreddit like /r/science uses heavy moderation to make the best science-oriented subreddit, then this is great. There is a problem, however, when interests outside of the specific general topic start to leak in.

A key example is politics. If /r/science suppresses global warming denialism, I'd say this is all well and good. The lion's share of global warming denialism is simply a misleading misrepresentation of science. However, let's suppose hypothetically that /r/science started to suppress all mention of studies showing there is some influence of sexual dimorphism, this would be ideologically driven bad science. (A fair, non-extreme reading of nature/nurture reflects that biological reality is messy and that there is some influence from both.)

How does one draw the line? There can be only one /r/science, if /r/science should become ideologically subborned and biased, it effectively makes the whole voice of reddit science ideologically biased. The same question arises for cliques and cronyism.

I think /r/science should become something of an aggregation like /r/popular. This way, there isn't the temptation of power and corruption coming from the power over the generic name. Then different moderation groups can compete on an even playing field by their merits, like even handed-ness and intellectual honesty.

EDIT: In a way, it's the same logic as a judge ruling that the president shouldn't block people on twitter.
