How I'd do it is have a warning when using Tor outside of the designated Tor container. That is, encourage the installation of the extension when enabling a "Tor" tab (permanently dismissable of course). Alternatively they could co-opt the private-browsing window (a.k.a. incognito) feature to have a tor-browsing window.

The latter might even be preferred since the former is only at the tab level and probably quite easy to forget whether you are in Tor before entering an address. It appears to be what is suggested in the notes (now that the link is up).

My Name Is Wil Wheaton. I Live with Chronic Depression. I Am Not Ashamed
I don't follow individuals on YouTube but I come across their videos when sucked into the "up next vortex". If they impress me, I check their channel to see what else they have posted. This is my take based on this experience.

Most youtubers are one or more of these three:

1. They comment on things, either current events or things in general.
2. They are self designated experts in their field and dole out tips and advice.
3. They make original content of some kind, like comedy skits or other art forms.

Then there are the so called bottom feeders, the scourge of modern YouTube, the makers of reaction videos.

Their channels are updated quite frequently, if not daily at most one per week. Only small proportion of the videos is worth watching. The rest is total waste of time. Subscribers often vent their frustration in the comments about the content, but for most people you'd have to go past several pages to see disgruntled comments. The top ones are usually favorable ones, and I am unsure of their authenticity.

The fundamental problem is that these youtubers mistook dumb luck for talent. When, for some inexplicable reason, some of their early videos went viral, they were egged on by their ego to post more, which is fine. But soon when they ran out of content, instead of quitting or taking a break to regroup, they continued to post substandard content.

I know I am being overtly judgemental by using words like 'substandard', and one might contest that by showing how popular these people are - some were even guests on popular US talk shows (one shiela was even on Conan) - but that is my point. I am amazed at the success they got despite such content. I wonder what kind of people are impressed by such content. Its one of the great sociological mysteries to me because, unlike a low quality TV show that persists due to studio bosses persisting with it for whatever reason, on social media things survive due to direct audience interest.

Quality intellectual output is quite hard. Even the most gifted comedian won't be funny all the time, the most gifted musician won't make good music all the time, the most gifted philosopher won't say deep thought provoking things all the time. In the current state of society where instant gratification is craved, people don't understand this, and it shows in how mediocrity succeeds time and again in all walks of life.

I think this burn out thing is their coming to terms with their lack of quality content and sort of giving up being an imposter. That said, some of the youtubers who post original content are indeed good. If they take time off and develop their talent, they could make a proper career out of it.
Kindly Care | CPA - Head of Payroll | REMOTE OK | $100k-$150k + equity

I used to do English to Chinese translation jobs on Upwork, the pay was reasonable (translators are very under-paid in China) so there were some good translators. Nowadays Upwork are much more hostile to freelancers (or just Chinese freelancers?) and Chinese translators are leaving the platform.

You should be able to easily find a freelancer by asking any Chinese people. Just look for someone who speaks very good English. Incompetent translators usually don't understand what they're translating.

Also, I suggest you to spend time communicating with your translator, instead of simply providing an excel. Translators need to know the context of the material they're translating. If they're translating a game, show them the game, if they're translating the app, show them the app and explain to them what it does. Or they will make hilarious mistakes. For example, "The Elder Scroll" was once translated to Chinese as "Old Man Scrollbar", "Lord of the Ring" as "Lord of Horse Racing Track".

I went on a weird tangent with my reply to this comment and just I'm just going to replace it with this. I generally agree with what you're saying as a means forward, but I also think React is a fantastic tool in the meantime.

What we have is, in fact, the state of the art for better or worse. We will get beyond this, but it clearly takes time.

Well, of course he will struggle to learn React. Web design and software engineering are two different fields… Not saying he needs a master in CS to learn React, but he will surely need to learn a bit of programming and JavaScript before jumping on it.

If you can calculate what it cost them, like if you do data exchange, what is the per page rate, what is their typical volume at the time of the outage. So you breach the SLA by an hour, they normally send 100 pages in that time, at 3 cents a page. Total loss would be $3. If the pages were delayed 15 to 30 minutes, or the next day, and that is within their SLA for their recipients, no real impact. Or if this put their employees out of work for 1/2 a day, average that out. If you can control the customer and understand their impact you may be able to avoid lawyers, but if they push lawyer up.

A lot of tablet opinions on here. Mine is not yet represented (after 6 hours) so here it is.

Yes I had the Nexus 7's, too slow and too small. The tablet you want is an 8 inch tablet for reading books, storing music and play lists (VLC of course), and browsing the web or reading books lying on your sofa.

The best tablet at the moment that fits the bill is the ASUS ZenPad S 8.0 Z580C-B1-BK for $275 USD (newegg.com). Why? The screen is excellent at 2048x1536 pixels. Speed is fast enough to keep you happy. 2G of RAM and 32G of storage with option of SD card to max out for your music and movies. (Asus has a lot of cheaper tablets with low resolution screens so be careful to get the right one.)

If you go for this tablet be sure to google to find out how to increase the Android version. It's a bit tricky but doable and worth it.
What? So just because you're small scale you can ignore people's privacy?

Disagree. Some things the Go team just could not justify putting in their checker, such as line lengths. So long as you only add restrictions and don't take any away, you are still honoring the spirit, you just acknowledge that your org may be even more stringent.
Same here. N10 is the perfect travel tablet. I even have a POGO charging cable which soon enough could be worth more than the N10. :)

I can't comment on the effectiveness of GDPR on the large data farmers such as Facebook and Google. However, I think that the alternative that you are proposing for lawmakers to go specifically after the current infringers of privacy would set a scary precedent. We shouldn't have specific corporations operating under a different set of laws than the rest of society, as that would undermine the rule of law.

You want a scary precedent ? look at DMCA and it's been used to intimidate and bully all over the world and outside US jurisdiction (the pirate bay case showed that US government outreach went to threat of economic sanctions to a foreign government).

The GDPR is probably not what you think is, because it barely introduces new stuff, it only enforces what already existed but was ignored because it was based on self-regulation.

There are a number a publications about RGPD explaining that there really nothing to panic about (unless you're a giant conglomerate), it's not going to kill your business unless your business is based on violating privacy and things you should not be doing in the first place because it's been illegal for a while and you had 2 years since the announcement to respect the law.

> If you want none of your personal info on the web, I have a suggestion: Don't participate in forums, social media, etc.

Does not work that way, actually thanks to RGPD it's now: if you don't want to deal with RGPD requests don't collect or process personal data.

Exactly. And they sneakily auto update before you realize it. My older one apparently can’t be rooted now and because they pump new ones out there’s no one really caring about the old ones. Hard to complain for the price but ya know still sucks. They make great gifts at least.

So the person buying from you factors in the discount for losing the law suit and you are not ahead. The lawyers are, investors are worse off.

I can't imagine many companies with a market cap less than disposal value of their assets. That's free money for any corporate raider it other acquirer. You do find money putting in the street but rarely and it doesn't stay there long.

These class actions are just an abject disaster for everyone. Except the lawyers, who make bank while enhancing their reputations in all the wrong ways. And it costs tax dollars to run the courts for them to vampire like so.

Insane. The money is gone, giving the remnants to lawyers won't bring any back. The correct remedy is jail for those who committed fraud acting as a deterrent j in the future.

Your comment is extrapolation hyperbole and paints a dichotomy that either the corp is control or the employees are in control when in actuality, it is a vast collection of individuals and groups.
A fairly short answer: code readability.

People seem to try to write their code as compact as possible, not realizing that they usually only write a piece of code once, but they and others will have to decipher and make sense of it a dozen times in the near future.
So if objects are just perturbation in a field, and field is a mathematical construct, just like the concept of a number, or a line or a circle, then isn't it meaning less to look for a start for the existence of a field, and hence the whole universe?

I have to agree with @rado on this one. The article presents this as a "code" vs "UI" debate when really it's a "web" vs "app" debate.

Although we use the web as an application platform, it was designed for information interchange, and evolved to support "an Internet-scale distributed hypermedia system." Those are often two quite different things. An application platform focuses on "component semantics" whereas the concept of an "Internet-scale" application focuses on "connector semantics".

"Not only is the set of input controls really small, but these controls have almost no functionality associated with them." - yes and that's a useful attribute if you are architecting "internet-scale" applications (think hypermedia, rest, hateoas et al.) because the intent is that each component is dumb enough to be seamlessly switched out with another. In this mindset, a page in a web application does one thing and does it well. It doesn't coincidentally provide retina scanning and 3d imagery (yes, i know...)

Neither the code nor the UI of the web are "solved" problems if you are trying to use it as a traditional application programming platform. You need frameworks and tooling to accomplish that.

I'm not arguing here that it should be this way (although I happen to love the web concept), but the real debate here is about "web" vs "app" - not "code" vs "UI". HTML is designed to facilitate web applications and that will continue to evolve very slowly and deliberately. The alternative is to reimagine web technologies as a traditional application platform from the ground up.
Scraping on high volumes any serp is pain if your business relies on it and most services out there do not work on high volumes or they work and crazy expensive.

I have checked few solutions out there, I am using now proxycrawl. Developers of their api helped me get a very high volume of Serp data from different search engines like Yandex, google and yahoo and bing. I also use them for Javascript crawling as for our project we need lots of content which is rendered via javascript. I am amazed of how their API endpoint works. It is basically sending a URL to their API and you are good to start. Make sure to contact them for some sites as they do not allow you to crawl the world by default unless you prove your use case, they liked my product and that is how it got started. I've really having successful experience with it so I totally recommend, you basically communicate with developers who does lots of work to make it happen. As I am mainly in JS I asked for a Node JS package and they just built it open sourced. https://github.com/proxycrawl/proxycrawl-node

we had a series of large 18 card modular routers fail recently that were installed in different places around the world at roughly the same period. randomly one of these would do a total reboot and/or fail over to it's backup control plane card. we checked everything and sent the routers back to the manufacturer lab to analyze. it ended up the root problem was that an information sticker was placed incorrectly on the power supply modules causing their connectors to occasionally short into the chassis of the router. these large systems are so complex today I think it will be the death of large routing hardware and a more distributed model of smaller routers will take over, I think it already has in many cloud architectures.
You can proliferate the doublespeak if you want but I'll call it what it is.

Like rebooting computers whenever they feel like it. Reenabling previously disabled options etc. Your head is in the sand but you don't have to live this way.

I have to agree with you, with the exception of Spotlight. Spotlight for me is just simpler of an app launcher for my rarely used apps than Alfred (though I use Alfred for other features), though I do miss Quicksilver.
But Launchpad is worthless for me, and I've never had a time when Mission Control hasn't just choked for a noticeable amount of time (I've even had 4 seconds of UI lockup just waiting for it to show up). Granted, I tend to keep a lot of apps open, but still, it's irritating whenever I accidentally trigger it or accidentally move a window to a different Space (this is on a still very capable mid-2014 Retina MBP with the highest specs available), and I much prefer using Keyboard Maestro to open/focus my most used apps (if the app is open, focus the foremost window, hit the combination again to bring all app windows forward; if it's closed, open it), and for window switching, Witch does the job faster and more logically than Mission Control.
And I agree about the Dock and menu bar. Sadly the Dock is easy to hide for those who don't want it visible, but Mission Control and Spaces can't be disabled (AFIK, I'd love to be wrong).

So basically drone.io is saying that discourse is not RGPD compliant and reddit is better equipped to deal with RGPD requests so he's moving his community discussion from a self hosted discourse to reddit.

Looks like a knee jerk reaction and missing the point that you can evade RGPD by outsourcing to a third party, one can still send RGPD requests to drone.io and owner is still responsible for answering those but now has to deal with getting the relevant data from reddit.

The thing to understand about San Francisco is that it's ironic. The whole thing, the city itself. It doesn't make any sense if you take it at face value, you need to understand that it's "bad" and "dumb" on purpose.

I mean, it's not even subtle. A city where shitting on the sidewalk (actual human shit) is commonly accepted and even appreciated as part of the local color, but a battery-powered scooter is a public safety crisis that requires emergency regulation? Come on.
There's no references to the statement that we have a finite amount of willpower per day. This is unfortunate to read as it has been discussed before that the willpower is something that's fluctuating and can be triggered by different things.
