Let's keep in mind here that there are many definitions of hate speech. In Canada, it's carefully defined as speech that actually incites people to a criminal act - so racism or other "vile speech" on its own doesn't qualify, you have to be actively making a credible threat or incitement to have others commit real actions.

“Vile hate speech” can cut both ways unfortunately. Both of us agree that racism is a bad thing. But the American South during Jim Crow declared progressive speech as “hate speech” and tried to ban it.[0] So it’s better to not empower the government to decide what is hate and what isn’t, or you may elect a government that decides what you say is hate speech.

[0] “As we have seen, during the days of slavery and later segregation, laws suppressing free speech were often aimed at abolitionists and civil rights advocates, not at slave owners or Jim Crow advocates. This reflected social and political power in local states and communities where attitudes towards race were very different than today.“ https://www.hoover.org/research/harm-hate-speech-laws

It sparked 5+ inquiries, including a parliamentary one, numerous reforms and national outrage. I hope we learn from those mistakes.

Well produced, but if I can be blunt: Why wouldn't you pitch something like this as a series to Vice Media or similar outfit? It'd seem right at home with them. It's decent content (I'm a crypto/blockchain fan) that is quite long and there's nothing to make me care about you or the people involved. How are the people and companies chosen and why are they chosen? Unless I'm missing something while skimming through the videos, I'd want to know who you are and why you're doing this series and then why I should watch each episode - explain to me, on camera, in the first 30 seconds, why I should care about the people/companies featured and then go talk to them, with yourself being on camera, as well. So far, there's really no reason to follow these or care. Following a personality or good company story makes me care.

Best of luck!

For a frontend project I would recommend React, as the tooling available for it goes way beyond Vue or Angular. A React component is syntactically equivalent to a plain JS function or class, so once you're set up you have a much easier time (IMO) managing a large project using it.

If the project is such that you don't need to specifically have server APIs separate from the content you serve, you might want to look at Next.js or After.js, which are two similar approaches to a "just make a whole website out of React components, including server-side functionality".

> I don't find utilitarianism a compelling moral philosophy

Could you expand on this some more? The primary argument against utilitarianism I recall is the hypothetical situation of there being that gets infinitely happy if you donate to it, so that the maximally useful thing would always be to donate to that being (or something like that, but you get the gist).

But such a being does not exist, and if we accept that our utilitarian gifts are not going to be perfect, isn't it a reasonable assumption that by trying to maximise the amount of good that can be done for our bucks, on average, the amount of good that will be done for our bucks will be higher than if we did not approach it like that?

Great comment! Loved it.

One thing to note is that Casey Neistat did burn out, stopped daily vlogging for almost a year, and said that even before he stopped, he felt his vlogs were not up to par because he didn't have the energy/time to make them better.

Now he's back to daily vlogging, but he's back with a whole production team helping him out.

Similarly GaryVee doesn't seem to burn out on daily vlogging, but that's because he outsources all of it. He goes about his day saying stuff that's useful and someone else records it then puts it together into an episode.
They seem to suggest that it is being removed because it wasn’t being used. Does anyone else find that hard to believe? Obviously it’s totally antectodal, but I checked that EVERY time I logged onto Facebook.

Just because people don’t click on it doesn’t mean everyone doesn’t read it.... Afterall it’s visible right in the top right of the site. To be honest this kind of sounds like Facebook is trying to skirt around the real reason for removing it (it was contributing to promoting fake news).

I am in an artistic niche field that uses Instagram heavily. We are independent artists who tie our personal identity closely to our business identity, like musicians or graffiti artists.

While it's rewarding to gain followers and attention, it raises the pressure on me to post new images, and on what type of content and it's quality. At the end of a day that I don't update my Instagram I feel guilty. While I can gain followers and reputation by posting, I see myself lose followers by posting media that doesn't match my audience's expectations or by not posting often enough.

This has the effect of chilling the content creation that got my social media started in the first place. It makes me weigh the value of things I am doing in terms of whether I can exhibit them online. I especially shy back from posting personal content, but I don't really know what my audience prefers. Just art pics, or life and personality? To make things more complicated, there is social pressure as I know about 10% of the audience personally.

I have started other Instagram accounts where I post semi-anonymously to have the same sort of normal social media outlet as a regular person. If that were to grow in followers though, the same thing would happen.

I think your reply is interesting, as it exactly the sort of thing that Effective Altruism talks about.

The example you gave is endemic of the way we think of charity precisely because it deals with both emotion and things we can individually see. Effective Altruism aims to make charity about things that don't directly affect us, that we can't see, and find areas that where the "bang per buck" is high.

Seattle spent $195 million on the homelessness according to this: https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/homeless/how-much-..., to help a group that this advocacy organisation http://www.homelessinfo.org/what_we_do/one_night_count/ puts at 10,000 people. I wonder how a person can rationally look at that - $195 million at ~$19.5K per person and think they can make a dent. Compare that to https://www.givedirectly.org/basic-income and doubling the poorest of the poor's daily income by giving them $1 a day for 12 years. These are people I can't see and don't have to think about, yet for less than $5000 I can provide someone with security and an income for over a decade. If I give $70 a week for 12 years, I can take 10 people out of abject poverty for 12 years. That's fractionally above my coffee budget.

That's the question Effective Altruism wants people to ask themselves. How can I, with the amount of money I have, do the most tangible good in the world, and what is an equation that helps me decide.

Far from being "absolutely morally repugnant" to walk past a homeless person and preference things we can't see, I think it is morally honest to look at the risks humanity faces, and preference things that are under funded, where $1 can go far. That takes several forms, both immediate - like the Give Directly example - versus long term, where risks that could wipe out our species are considered. I think a strong argument can be made that, for minimal expense, it would be possible to have an affect on a potentially species destroying technology like AI, and that the money spent there is more likely to do good than adding that to an already well funded area.

That's catastrophic risk, minimal expense vs human suffering and high cost. How you solve for the equilibrium there.

I guess the problem is that not enough people know that civil forfeiture is a thing yet.

...or that not enough people have experienced it yet, and probably never will. There's a lot of "it won't happen to me" thinking around this, and to be honest, how many people do take large amounts of cash with them while traveling? The fact that this item is newsworthy is enough to show that it happens rarely.

I'm almost willing to bet that if the number of people affected goes high enough, there will be armed revolts; but the government is smart enough to not do that, instead preferring to strip liberties in tiny bits at a time.
I reviewed the Google location history for this and I was driving about 100 miles between stops, admittedly conservatively, but trying to stop with at least 20% battery. As a side note, I found that often Supercharging was not at the 200+ mi/hr rate if the station was heavily used (perhaps obviously). But, if you're planning on doing the trip end to end, expect it to take more than 30 minutes to get back the 100 miles to the next charger.
The core point here is that Haskell is a more complex language that requires understanding and applying more concepts to write effective idiomatic code. Mentoring does help, but you still need to build a mental model of using the language, and there isn't a shortcut for that. Clojure requires a smaller mental model than Haskell, and that makes it easier to learn. The end result is that you have to spend less time ramping people up.

If Haskell works for your team that's great though, it did not work for mine.
I understand, but 1.1.1.1 was used by people for internal use, for example as a default for portals on wifi routers. Because of that, now anyone that wants to use the 1.1.1.1 DNS server can not when they are on wifi routers that use that IP as the traffic does not go where it was intended.

For example, my username is enzanki_ars. Let's say I set up enzanki.ars at home as a host for an in home only server. Now let's say that a new country registers .ars as a new TLD, for example Argentina as ARS is the ISO 4217 currency code for the Argentine peso. Now I am stepping over someone else's TLD, an someone could even register enzanki.ars before me and start using it.

My personal policy is "just because you can doesn't mean you should." If I wanted to disrespect the process we have in place to prevent people from stepping over other people's domains, I would have set up enzanki.ars already. Until then, 192.168.0.0/16 is how I reference my hosts at home.

Edit: See also: https://www.iana.org/assignments/special-use-domain-names/sp... for an up to date list of special use domains. "home.arpa." was recently assigned as one, and I may start using that one at home.

> So it’s better to not empower the government to decide what is hate and what isn’t

The government cannot just arbitrarily expand hate speech to include something which is patently not hate speech. The courts would not uphold it, neither would the judiciary or the public at large.
I'm actually more concerned about the negative (your statement is mostly true), i.e. "if it's in a second-tier journal, it doesn't exist". Sure, some just look for an outlet for their crappy research, but the publication outlet shouldn't be used as a shortcut to evaluating quality.

Not everyone goes into the public eye because they're mentally ill, but having worked in entertainment, there was definitely a higher percentage of mentally unstable people.

> "on autopilot"

Pilots don't let planes on autopilot take off and land. They don't just turn it on and go for a beer. Same with boats - there's still a human despite the fanciest autopilot on a ship, especially when navigating a harbour.

However the term is overloaded - consumers think it means something different. In the consumer understanding, autopilot means "go to sleep I've got this."

But it's never been that. Tesla's mistake is using a term people might misunderstand, not misusing rhe term themselves.
Some company (DEC, maybe?) defined what they called a "perfect failure". You tried something, it failed, you recognized that it was a failure and stopped doing it, and you learned something. They celebrated those as though a very good thing had happened - which, from there perspective, it had.
