People should get a bit smarter about where and how they get their education. You can go for a big brand university in the US and pay a premium, or you can go to Europe; pay a tiny fraction, gain a lot of life experience in the process, and stand out from the play it safe & stay at home crowd. All while not building up any debt. I see lots of US students and expats here in Berlin these days. Not surprising. Life is nice here, universities are good, and there's plenty of opportunities in the local startup scene after you are done studying. Sort of what SFO must have looked like when it was still cheap and habitable a few decades ago and when smart people moved there because it was genuinely a nice place to be.

Likewise, unless you are investing in the SFO housing market, there are more interesting ways to burn cash than to fund the local housing bubble through vastly inflated engineering salaries. For example in Europe where where you can hire entire team for the price of a single mediocre engineer in SFO (forget about getting the really good ones until you land that big series A and can afford the 300K/year salaries).

I've figured there's exactly one place where envy makes sense: If someone else has more than you because some authority is distributing things, and is supposed to do it one way but is doing it another way, then it makes sense to be mad... at that authority. It still doesn't make sense to be mad at the recipient of the extra stuff, unless they are in some way aiding and abetting the authority in its unfair behavior.

> I'm not sure there is _an_ existing standard right now

I think there is none, except for the OS-provided APIs (but those have complications of their own, e.g. Chrome had dropped Apple Keychain support for a reason).

> there's no reason why other managers couldn't interoperate

Why would they? I don't think anyone was invited to this party. And I find it highly unlikely someone will bother to interoperate beyond implementing an importer tool, because it's likely that no one wants to spend resources on alternative implementations just to be in dependent always-catching-up position.

Seriously, I absolutely don't see how this could become a standard. I've called it proprietary not to badmouth it, but because it is Mozilla's own, unique stuff and is very much likely to remain so.

I believe if someone wants to devise a standard for something, they call for everyone having their in-house implementations, asking if they want to interoperate. Many won't bother, but some may like the idea. Then, a specification is written, and conforming implementations follow.
Cutthroat competition of well-funded second-movers is a whole different ballgame. It's funny that you mention Peter Thiel. His "globalization" pretty much describes this.

The normalisation of envy as a means of social control is a key element in the socialist playbook. Without envy, there is no point to socialism; if I don't care what my neighbour has, why would I ask the state to enforce its redistribution?

So, just be aware that what we're seeing in this article is a pro-socialist/-communist stance, broadly dressed up in anthropological mythos in order to make a political point, which seems to be "envy is a moderator of inequality", whereas there is a big point missed: not being envious of anyone, equalises everyone.

Well, I don't trust CNN either so it's actually a good comparison.

It seems "well-known" sources of news are using their comfortable position to accept a lower quality of their journalism.

I'm not saying their are bad intended, but they took the choice of posting often (with possibly unverified information) rather than posting rigorously checked facts, and cross checked with different sources. I feel like I have to do myself their work of cross verifying everything they post...

Using ritalin or dexy because it is prescribed for ADHD is fine, just as it's fine to take antibiotics or antidepressants if they've been prescribed for you to be able to function normally.

That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about people who use methamphetamine to work longer shifts, or modafinil to get that mental edge over their colleagues so they can get that promotion and a pay rise. I believe that (with the exception of prescribed drugs) you should never take drugs because you feel you need to. You should only ever take drugs because you want to. Dropping a cap of MDMA or drinking a bottle of wine because you've had a shit week is a sure fire way to develop a habit, I know this from experience.

The author's final conclusions take, as a matter of fact, that inequality is what drove revolutions of the past. It seems that the more precise cause of these revolutions throughout time has not been the lack of equality, but the lack of fairness. And these are two very different things. If we take 1000 people and give rewards in proportion to performance at some task, it will be extremely unequal - yet fair. If we take these 1000 people and instead give identical rewards in accordance with who a grand arbiter thinks would be somehow 'better', it would be radically unfair. Even if the final result in the distribution of rewards is the same, the general view and tolerance of such distribution would be very different.

The example most commonly cited as a revolution of inequality is the French Revolution, yet the people did not protest because the ruling class enjoyed feasts of wine and meat while they ate grain and water, as had been the case since time immemorial. It happened because the masses were required to pay ever larger taxes to subsidize a government that was increasingly in debt with very little to show for it, all because of the actions of those that lived in luxury. And this happened at the same time that famine was sweeping the nation magnifying the absurdity of it all. Put another way, those in power were destroying their nation and demanding the poor pay for their failures. That's not about inequality, it's about unfairness.

And I think this generalizes to the entire article. People do not generally seem to care about equality -- they care about fairness. The Waltons and Elon Musk are both billionaires, but they are perceived in vastly different ways. Imagine if we lived exactly as we do today, yet the vast majority of wealthy obtained their wealth and behaved in a fashion similar to the Waltons. The stability of this nation would be quite different.
The thing to take away from this story is that it is the asymmetry of information that is usually the problem.

On problem with password managers (that are using web authentication to create/manage an account for backing up the password manager in the cloud) is that the authentication password can be leaked during the authentication process. For example, the storage provider for password manager backup can simply read the password from the authentication web page since this web page is hosted at the provider. This is problematic if the authentication password is also used to encrypt the password manager, i.e. the provider could decrypt the password manager with the authentication password. You would actually need two passwords; one for authentication and one for encryption. Unfortunately, you usually don't even have the option to choose two passwords.

To solve this problem I'm working on FejoaAuth (https://fejoa.org/fejoapage/auth.html). FejoaAuth uses an authentication protocol that does not leak the user password to the provider who is going to store the password manager. This protocol is run in a trusted browser plugin in order to ensure the correct execution of the protocol. Thus you can use a single password for authentication and password manager encryption.

The thing about for profit companies is that they rarely advance the world significantly.

Almost everything you enjoy in modern life was build first by public funding. The water in your tap, the electricity in your walls, the roads and bridges you drive on, hell, even the Internet was made by the army and TOR was made by the navy.

What had for profit organizations really given us?

I mean, they have obviously given us a lot, the Internet would be pretty dull without for profit organisations, but they often aren’t good at making new things.

There is a reason you’re still using the email protocol, it’s next to impossible to make a standard when for profit organizations take over, and it’s really the same with mosquito mass murder.

This is great for Australia, but if an African country wants to do the same thing they either have to start from scratch or pay.

Speaking of those top-level queries, I've noticed some of them are reported as unknown, even though they then are suggested. Observe:

Unknown topic.
Do you mean one of these topics may be?

* lisp/ 100
* elisp/ 89
* alias 67

Changing the URL to cht.sh/alias correctly gives a list of examples, while lisp and elisp are always reported as unknown. My guess is, something somewhere is storing those tokens with forward slash in the name, whereas the HTTP handling code strips it out from request.

That sort of trading genocide for one's own ego is Maoist and Stalinist, and it is really no different from their thought processes. Thankfully though stable political systems marginalize low-rank people like this. (Thus, be very afraid of revolutions).

I prefer to work with an engineer who worked for both Apple and a Chinese company than a fanatic nationalist engineer from any of the 2 sides, regardless of government type.

Did you ever worked for a Chinese company? That engineer worked for both, he works towards a borderless world.

Edit : oh, and he is transparent about it. That engineer has more integrity than Apple.

Edit 2 : if I were able to give an anonymous dollar to that engineer in order to help him, I would do it.

Not exactly what you’re after, but the Librem 5 (crowd-funded, at the head-scratching stage) aims to put the baseband processor in an optional M2 slot with killable power. On a device that runs Debian. From following progress on that project I’ve got the impression that everything to do with chips for mobile connectivity are so patent/IP-law encumbered that there’s little hope for Free Software replacements.

However, hacking on that handset is the best chance I’m aware of for you getting the device you want (perhaps with something else in the M2 slot).

> yet the people did not protest because the bourgeois enjoyed feasts of wine and meat while they ate grain and water, as had been the case since time immemorial.

Well, no, the food crises immediately preceding the revolution meant that the people weren't even getting their expected grain and water. But the bourgeoisie (a class that was the middle class in the pre-capitalist economy of the time and which hadn't really existed “since time immemorial”) wasn't the target of the Revolution, indeed, while the masses and their discontent were powering it, the bourgeoisie was largely leading the Revolution.
This is true but they are often long and complicated and aren't always conducive to quick solutions or refreshing memories of a useful combination of arguments.

A change from 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit to 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit is not a doubling by any measure, because Fahrenheit is a relative temperature scale. 3.6F is 0.0039 times bigger than 1.8F
It didn't double. It went up one degree in C or K, or +0.4% in K.
For comparison: in Sweden there was a chain of gas stations who installed plate recognition cameras to record people who didn't pay for the gas (if you opt to pay cash, you get to fill your car first and pay later, with this system in place the clerks could refuse that you got to fill up your car first if your plate showed up in a search).

The Swedish agency of data regulation was able to challenge the system in court and got the chain to dismantle the system, and with fines added to that. This was a couple of years ago, long before GDPR.

Something like this would absolutely not fly on this side of the pond, and I'm very glad about that.
Doesn’t that get excessive, making network calls to do what could be more naturally expressed as a method call?
