If you don’t turn up on the first page on Google you might as well be delisted anyway. Not every site in the world that wants to become popular is going to appear in the first 20 search results.

For instance in the Apple ecosystem, there are plenty of pundits like Gruber, the guy who runs stratechery, etc who don’t depend on SEO and never have.

If your whole business model is dependent on Google SEO, you’re just one algorithm change away from going out of business - even if you’re not specifically being targeted.

There is a whole conservative ecosystem that most people who care about people like Alex Jones can discover him from.

Like I said, people can’t both argue that Apple should allow side loaded apps and not be a wall garden as a way to foster free speech and at the same time argue that podcasts - one of the few areas where you can get content outside of the walled garden isn’t good enough. If that’s the case, Google allowing side loading of apps is a meaningless talking point.

> Why shouldnt fire fighting be for-profit

Because fires pose an undue risk to entire regions, not individuals.

Because the pricing mechanism is excessively unfair to individuals.

Because no one's life should be at risk because they don't have access to financial resources.

Individuals should be (and are, generally) free to start for-profit fire fighting businesses, but these should not seek to displace existing infrastructure.

> Why do you believe non-profit means it has to be provided by government?

That wasn't said or implied in the parent post, but the government _is_ our collective resource. By the people, for the people. It is we, the people, whose lives and property are put in danger by fires. The most effective way of grouping people's interest collectively in history has been through governance. Non-profit fire fighting may be viable, but it's better that we collectively work to keep our collection safe.

> Why do you believe profit is bad?

It depends entirely on the context. When people's lives are at stake profits incentivize cruel and unusual behavior from those incentivized to reap the reward.
I assume most venture capital is currently spent on growth rounds for companies that already have traction. There are more of the companies on the coasts than within them, and they're in areas with a high concentration of talent and customers, which fuels the cycle.
we have the technology already: the cyanobacteria which produced the oxygen that ultimately became the earth's atmosphere. they're even better than trees because they're easier to multiplex and they don't catch on fire.

> putting children through traumatizing simulated events has unclear psychological consequences.

I visited Yad Vashem when I was 16. I have been traumatized for the rest of my life. The Children's Memorial is not for children.
Pretty much every decentralized system has centralized components. You can't get away with 100% decentralization because we're not there yet. First example that comes to mind is the dat protocol (Beaker Browser) and hashbase[1], that is described as a "super peer" but is really a centralized server to keep your dat online when your local isn't running.

But yes, you're right, the income is absolutely centralized.

Tim Cook's Email to Employees About Apple's $1T Milestone
I should be clear that I can't claim to know why. I just look at the stats, and I see more wealthier people in areas that are more socially liberal.
I think those are all valid concerns in the long run. My thought about 9/11 is that most of the country 'experienced' 9/11 but in a much different way than being on or near the site of the attacks. As a kid, the weeks/months long aftermath was far more impactful on my psyche than the immediate moment of learning of the attack. It would be tough to recreate that experience in VR.
Arrogance.
Most cryptocurrency is easier to use than a credit card. You scan a QR code and click "confirm" to pay. So that "non-technical" criticism is a red herring.
I'm not optimistic about this for game theoretic reasons. It would require a global scale all-cooperate scenario, since any single defector gets massive economic benefit from defecting and using cheaper energy to undercut everyone else.

The only hope we have is the development of post-carbon energy sources that are cheaper than fossil fuels. If we can't do that I do not see a plausible scenario where we don't burn every bit of profitably accessible carbon.

Android 9 Pie:Powered by AI for a smarter, simpler experience that adapts to you
iMac Pro is cost-effective on the Intel platform. But AMD's Threadripper is the topic of discussion here, and I think for most people... those 32-cores for $1799 is just a way better deal.

Do remember that this 32-core Threadripper offers quad-channel memory, 64x PCIe lanes, and ECC support (!!). So the Threadripper offers pretty much everything a professional wants.

The only downside to Threadripper is that its multi-threaded performance is similar to a quad-socket / quad-CPU design (~200ns to ~300ns latencies to memory, depending on how many "hops" and NUMA nodes and stuff...). So audio professionals and gamers who are IIRC latency bound may want to stick to Intel.

But almost everyone else is bandwidth bound (video editing, 3d rendering, compilers, web servers, LT Spice...). So most professionals would probably prefer a Threadripper.
Large Midwestern cities like Minneapolis and Chicago are quite liberal and have a lot of rich people who could fund startups. We actually do have a lot of tech in these places, but generally only because large companies are in these places and they need a lot of engineering.

The startup culture is not here of course, but the reasons are not the ones you list.
Quite some red-herrings in this line of questioning. He never made reference to "profit is bad."

Saying that medical care for our fellow humans should not be for-profit implies that the individual values human life over our current constructed system of exchange. There are hundreds of thousands of people in the U.S. who would be bankrupted instantly if they were to suffer a significant accident that required prolonged medical attention. People that would otherwise continue to live productive and meaningful lives who would be regulated to abject poverty, destroying their potential.

The argument for socialized healthcare is simple; we have the resources to do it successfully and it costs less[1][2] and is more efficient than our current model. The only thing propping up our system is the millions of dollars of lobbying money from the insurance firms.

So are you saying that idiots will knowingly link their bank accounts to Facebook and star in their own Black Mirror episode? Sounds amazing.
For now, I wouldn't worry. But if you get the sense that you are gaining more users than expected, and this starts earning you any actual money, then I'd consider preparing a rebrand. Or, of course, if you're getting into investment talks — any due diligence will/should bring this up and put a stop to it until resolved. Until then, I would possibly ignore it for now (unless it's an easy move).
2020 is currently just 18 months ahead. In the consumer's pov that means close to nothing. Heck, I assume they would not be able to change within that time frame even if they wanted to.
This is quite literally the definition of triage.

You have finite resources. You have requests for resources which exceed your capabilities to service. You need to determine an order.

In an ideal utopian world, no one would ever need these services. In a less ideal world, everyone who needs these services would be serviced quickly and effectively with only positive outcomes.

In the real world, you have to make choices. These are very hard choices, and they have longer term impacts. It is literally "the good of the many vs the good of the few."

Can't access the article, but the abstract reads like this is inference only. If that's so, this still could be useful. For instance, you could train a network somewhere else, then implement the learned function optically.
Yeah I don't think China or India are catching up any time soon. They're extremely arid regions.

China even has a program in place to plant trees along the Gobi dessert to stop it's expansion. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-North_Shelter_Forest_Pro....

This is a bullshit answer. Your design language is the worst and cannot be defended. Amazon has literally all the money. Hire a team, give them the mandate and listen to their suggestions/solutions. Asking for spec work is some serious bullshit.

I meant no offense. I simply had no idea how much data or reasoning backed up your statement.
> Too late. If you start planning nuclear plants now, they'll take 10 years to build.

Probably more unless you build Gen IIs: because of the ongoing popularity of Gen IIs manufacturers have very little experience building their Gen IIIs (and the building processes have not been de-kinked yet) and Gen IVs are still years away from design completion to say nothing of actually building them.

There seems to be two things tested in this exercise. Technical drawing capabilities and knowledge of bicycle mechanics.

I assume most people that drew bicycles have ridden one, but there are a few basic common mistakes. The location of the pedals (closer to rear wheel, very near to floor), the way the chain operate, and the triangle frame are some examples. I did not notice anyone drawing details around the gear mechanisms nor the breaks. Many people demonstrated acceptable drawing technique while getting mechanical details of the bicycle incorrect.

I think this exercise highlights a great amount of ignorance around bicycles. I purpose society would benefit from better bicycle education. Better bicycle education might encourage bicycle adoption (needs testing to verify), and bicycle ridership improves climate change, obesity, traffic, and heart disease. In addition to increased adoption, bicycle education would improve bicycle safety.

Bicycle education as a semester long optional course in high school is a great reach goal. It could mirror driver education where teenagers learn traffic rules and laws, and also basic bicycle maintenance. Perhaps with enough active bicycle riding time it could count as a Physical Education credit.

A good first step would be more high quality videos and pamphlets on the topic of bicycle education.
I didn't want to mention what I thought was wrong because I didn't want to accidentally influence anybody else, especially if I wound up wrong.

But yeah, after giving it a good, long look, along with his mention that it would break when someone sat on it, I guessed that there should have been a bar between the back wheel and where the pedals are.
This is being fixed:

• You can use CAA DNS records to choose which CAs can create certs for your domain.

• You can watch Certificate Transparency logs to catch CAs that didn't obey.

AFAIK both are becoming mandatory for CAs. It doesn't technically stop violations, but ensures they get caught and shut down if they fail to obey the rules (like StartCom and Symantec).
I know a lot of smart people who've devoted their lives to solving this problem. It's very easy for you to dismiss it as easy or say that researchers are incompetent when you haven't spent years working on cancer research in a wet lab.
It's a great place to start a family. Housing is a lot cheaper, and the people are hard workers.

There's a lot of really smart people in the Midwest who will dedicate themselves to your cause because they have a family to take care of. The midwest will probably never be competitive for top AI talent, but it already has some of the hardest working, and most loyal talent.

Most companies don't need genius, they just need someone with a lot of grit. The Midwest has vast swaths of folks with grit.

Probably the easiest way forward if you have any infrastructure yourself is to simply delegate some subzone of one of your domains to a nameserver you run yourself (like, delegate letsencrypt.yourdomain.example to your own nameserver), then point your CNAME to a name beneath that, and configure that nameserver for dynamic updates so your LE client can change the TXT record(s) on that server as needed.

Read the article.

> The company says the newly updated plans will include “many” major first run films from studios, wording that appears to confirm MoviePass’ plans to limit access to certain blockbusters, a trend that began with the latest Mission: Impossible film. For the time being, however, it’s agreed to suspend Peak Pricing and Ticket Verification to help appease existing users who are migrated over to the new plan.

To me it sounds they're removing peak pricing and being more conscious about restricting movies.
You can make a photovoltaic panels fab with the money that goes into a nuclear power plant, and complete it faster.

The one thing that would probably have the largest impact would be guaranteeing some demand for PV fabs. (As much as I hate governments guaranteeing demand in general.)
As far as weather, the Midwest, Boston, and NYC are pretty much the same. Boston and the upper Midwest are cooler, of course.

Why is there an expectation for kids to inherit?

I mean, parents have typically already spent hugely on support and education. Indeed, grown children were traditionally expected to support and care for their parents. Arguably, reverse mortgages wouldn't be so popular if they still did that. And yes, I get that the economic system is fucked up. But that's not parents' fault, for the most part.
The NHS bases their cost-effectiveness calculations on the increase in quality-adjusted life years that the treatment is expected to add. That measure will absolutely prioritize treatment of younger patients over treatment of older patients because there is more time over which the benefits of the treatment can be realized.

Paying hundreds of thousands of dollars to save a ten-year-old from cancer will be accepted because it could add decades to their life. Paying hundreds of thousands of dollars to save a ninety-year-old from cancer will not because it is unlikely to increase their lifespan very much.

No, you're being downvoted for amorality.
It's not broader or more nuanced though, the first amendment is very clear. Apple is no more forced to include infowars on their platform, than inforwars is forced to post an article you sent them.

It has nothing to do with free speech.

I can see why inforwars readers aren't happy with this, but I don't really care what they think. People who send death threats to parents who lose children in school shootings because infowars labeled them as actors in false flag operations are assholes.

Who wants to listen to them? And it's not like they're not allowed to say what they want, they absolutely are, they just can't force anyone to listen.

Ironically, if you want the government to force private companies to include inforwars on their platforms, well, then you're really not very different from the left-leaning marxists who wants the government to force companies to hire 50/50 male/women directors.

Equality of outcome is always evil, and there is nothing complicated or nuanced about it.

Unfortunately judging by the comments you’ll hear online after playing through the emotional introduction, it doesn’t seem it makes a lasting impression on many.
