Google does a lot of weird things with their maps, some of them aren't accidental. Here's my local anecdote:

I live in Thessaloniki, Macedonia (the region, not the country), Greece.
In our city there's a bus station called "Bus Station Macedonia".

Funded in 1952, long before the name conflict became a thing, it was named that way because it was servicing the region of Macedonia in Greece (it's an intercity bus station).

Recently, I noticed that Google maps names it "Bus Station Thessaloniki". I live in this city for well over 20 years and I have never, not once heard it called this way. If you ask for the "Bus Station Thessaloniki" locals will ask you what do you mean. But Google returns "Thessaloniki" to the query "Macedonia".

And it's a recent thing. I don't want to get into the details of the naming conflict, but the fact is that our NATO allies want to usher Macedonia (FYROM, the country) into NATO really fast, despite their nationalist and expansionist government, because of Russia. That's a reasonable move and I fully support it.

The problem arises when instead of actually intermediating to find a solution to the name issue, they just use their tools (like Google Maps) as a propaganda machine with complete disregard to our interests or even the fabric of reality (It's simply not named like that. Period.).

Of course there are a lot more machine-learning based artifacts on Google maps than political ones (for example Fiskhorn-->Fishkorn is probably the result of assuming misspelled queries as the ground truth) but keep in mind they can use this power in numerous, much more malicious ways (ie downgrading or upgrading neighborhoods, reducing visibility of businesses that they don't like etc).

Given the sketchy password policies of many (most?) websites, including banks, I have serious doubts that sites will recognize SMS as insecure. The only options seem to be:

* Don't use services with SMS 2FA

* A burner number for each different service that only has SMS 2FA

* Disable 2FA for that service

> Elon is attempting to maneuver Tesla through a tight operating and financial envelope.

He's been attempting that maneuver for more than a decade.

You mean private funding? Raising money on the stock market isn't public funding.

> Of course you're going to have a lot of debate about what he's doing.

That's my point. He's been doing everything you've said forever. It's just the past 4 months where journalists have started to write hit pieces. How come they were so quiet in the past?

> Journalists being critical isn't them launching a war, it's them attempting to leave no stone unturned.

No. Considering some journalists have openly asked their fellow journalists on twitter to come forward with sex abuse or negative stories on elon musk after musk criticized the media, I don't think your argument holds much water.

It's obvious musk despises the news media ( he openly stated so ). And it's obvious journalists hate criticism and will lash out at anyone. The question is whether vindictiveness on both sides will subside. I highly doubt it will from journalists considering their terrible track record and of course their desire for ratings. So I expect a lot of hit pieces on musk and tesla. The question is will elon musk back down. My hope is that he will focus on his companies and his goals rather than being dragged into a neverending petty argument with journalists.

The Rise of Computer Generated Celebrity
The problem is that there is never a phrase-by-phrase exact match when translating. Everything is ambiguous and in order to translate from one language into another you need to resolve that ambiguity while you're also adding new ambiguity.

The "I will bury you" example is entirely plausible: it might have been a fitting translation if the intent was merely to say "We will still exist when you are long gone" but the connotation is "We will kill you before you can kill us", which might have been completely lost on the translator (or even worse: it might be a misunderstanding of the original phrase's intentions resulting in an intentionally hostile translation).

Really the only way to avoid this problem is to use extremely specific registers in both languages, but that's rarely feasible outside of legal or technical documents. And even then the two languages might have slightly different meanings to some seemingly shared vocabulary translators need to be aware of.
> A) So? What if I want to do that?

So what if you do ? You can't.

Android isn't really open source. They let you look at some unimportant parts of it, that's all. It's a token gesture at best, or deliberately deceptive at worst.

> The point of open-sourcing everything isn't so that everyone can audit everything everytime. It's so that we can audit when we need to

But you can't audit the most important parts of Android, as they are closed-source. Hell, even Google doesn't have access to the source of the most important bits such as the baseband firmware.
I freely admit I'm defective. Software development is a constant cycle of solving problems and then solving the problems created by solving the previous problems. Fortunately, I love solving problems.
Just in a basic sense. The NYT employs X people, sells to Y people, etc. Those are people who won't be employed by someone else, people who won't buy another paper.

There's a sort of critical mass of "news" that can be made. We can't all be investigative journalists.

So whatever that would be here instead of the NYT might be different, it might not be worse. It could be just as good, just different.

Of course, it could be worse. It could be better. We can't know.

Yo. Just keep doing what you're doing. I dig it.

I'm not 100% with all the tools you are using, but stringing together random SaaS tools and having to survey a random number of open source tools in order to assemble a sensible platform makes way less sense.

At the very least, what we end up with is a group of folks working together in the open to surface some of the limitations and challenges and attempt to work out some of the alternative solutions to the problems that arise in this space.

So, I applaud your effort. Ignore the salesmen and the haters.

No extra tooling, no symlinks, files are tracked on a version control system, you can use different branches for different computers, you can replicate you configuration easily on new installation.

But synchronizing shared configuration is clunky (you have to cherry pick commits between branches I guess).

I use NixOS and Nix on my MacBook, which allows you to store and version your whole system configuration. I have factored out different parts of my configuration (emacs, zsh, etc.) in different .nix files. So, I just have one file per machine where I import the relevant configurations and specify the packages that I want to have available. E.g. this is my user configuration on NixOS:

As a German who sometimes watches German dubs, one mistranslation from English I notice very frequently is "eventually" becoming "eventuell" ("possibly").

The pair is one of the most well-known "false friends" between the two languages, but somehow translators sometimes still get them wrong from time to time. The last time I noticed it was in a Star Trek TNG episode where the monologue didn't make any sense because of it. I constantly second-guess the translation when hearing the word.

ICML 2018 recap
> The only real way to get off grid power without batteries is to go with an inverter that has an emergency outlet. Some of the SMA inverters support this (they call it Secure Power Supply) - you feed the whole rooftop array into them, and they can, if the sun is shining, provide 1.5kW or so to a dedicated outlet - assuming there's enough solar power. So, from an 8-10kW array, on a sunny day, you can get 1.5kW by operating well below the peak power point. If the array can't keep up with current demand (a cloud goes over), the outlet shuts down. It's better than nothing, but this is just about the only way you can get battery-free off grid power. To get any sort of stable battery-free power, you have to run the panels well, well below peak power (30-50% of peak is as high as you can really run), and even then, you have a horrifically unstable system. If the array power briefly drops below demand (perhaps an airplane has flown over), you shut down the entire output for a while. Hopefully your devices can handle intermittent power like this. If the array can source 1300W at the moment and a compressor tries to draw 1301W while starting, you collapse the array voltage and shut down the outlet. That's really hard on compressors (and everything else attached to the outlet).

It's not ideal, but this is so much better than what most installs are built with (nothing).

Interesting article, but I can't take the thesis seriously, given there seems to be no proof that Google Maps was the "leader" in the renaming.
A lot of these 'misconceptions' are absolutely true though, for certain architectures. Every architecture has a specific set of guarantees about memory ordering and the coherence protocol used is an implementation detail relevant only to performance. The article is about x86 but i.e. ARM has much weaker guarantees about memory ordering. Relying on the behavior of a specific architecture here is not a good idea. This Linux document about memory barriers[1] repeatedly calls out problems specific to the Alpha architecture because of its extremely weak memory ordering guarantees.

Though also in principle if you're not writing in assembly and your compiler is not buggy it is the programming language memory model that matters rather than the hardware model. The CPU's memory ordering guarantees don't matter if your compiler reorders memory accesses anyway to "optimize" your code. Modern C/C++ compilers WILL do this if you don't use explicit synchronization because the C/C++ model has very weak ordering guarantees that are basically similar to Alpha.

> There are studies on people who function on reasoning alone, and they are, unsurprisingly not very good at moral decisions

> Besides, there's a lot of evidence now that our "reasoning", especially on moral matters, is more often than not, a post hoc justification of our emotional instinct.

Can you give an example of these studies? I’m interested in how they assign a qualifier of “good” or “bad” to various moral decisions. Are subjects not consistent in their moral decisions, or do their decisions disagree with the moral priors of the researchers? How do the researchers establish that their moral decisions are correct? That’s the essence of ethics itself.

Unless these studies are exceptionally careful in their setup, I think it’s probable they’re begging the question implicitly. A more reserved conclusion might be that people with less empathy, in the aggregate, consistently make moral decisions which are different from those who have more empathy. But I think this conclusion might be kind of vacuous to anyone who has read a philosophy book or two on ethics.

I think the standard approach to this problem is that good translators come up with jokes that are similar in spirit even if they're not direct translations.
