If you go to AWS inspector in the AWS web console then you'll see why they chose "some boxes" as the right answer.
I feel like Adobe has a similar problem but handle it much better.
That’s just a complete straw man.

There is no one who thinks politicians make decisions without politics. I mean, the word is in the name.
>One could imagine a system in which multiple sets of links could be associated with a single resource to accommodate this, allowing for a range of different viewpoints on how things are connected.

You can kind of do it yourself by quoting the thing in a public comment eg "Freeing the Web from the Browser" https://www.reinterpretcast.com/open-hypermedia

and then saying it reminds me of whatever eg. the semantic web https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_Web a bit

Then anyone gooling the title may come across stuff like this.
I'm not sure how you think this comment makes you come off, but it's certainly not good.

> We just need to come up with better ways of funding them that don’t involve building a massive survellaince apparatus.

You're absolutely, completely, 100% right. This is a critical need!

Sad to say, I can think of several models that have been tried - donations, subscriptions, and merchandising come to mind. None require building a subscription apparatus! This makes them morally superior in very important ways, but all of those approaches come with distinct downsides. They all have distortionary effects on the user experience and condition the continued existence on the service on a handful of people.

Perhaps we should stop and think carefully about why surveillence-fuelled ads are so popular an approach. It's a systems that lets one monetize lurkers who are otherwise minimally interactive. Which is most users. As a result, the income base is much broader and more predictable.

We need better models. And we need to understand our models better.
I feel like AWS’s MO is to eschew things like usability and consistency in favor of getting features out as quickly as possible. Perhaps it doesn’t have to be an either/or, but as an observer from outside the org, it’s hard to know
Hi strom,do you have experience using this? I tried it a couple of years back on a new pc but I had some issue (I cant't remember what it was) with full disk encryption which caused me to go with Truecrypt.
The number of people who led that team for a year and a half as an employee and three years after as a vendor is probably sufficient to identify them regardless of the account used.
Doesn't it do Bluetooth, or doesn't it do Bluetooth with your laptop? I kind of suspect the latter, and that's one of the reasons: Bluetooth stacks traditionally are fiddly, not all devices support all modes, ...

For dense offices, custom protocols can also be better at dealing with many devices at the same time. For mouses/keyboards, a dongle can be available before the OS has started and initialized Bluetooth.
Sure but what does that mean.
I work with AWS every day, and I just realized that even though all the symbols have a consistent look, the style is so generic I don't mentally associate it with AWS. To me it looks like symbols from a design diagram where somebody was in a hurry and picked random symbols from their drawing program's image library.
>the works and thoughts of Plato are the foundation of our free society

Plato's political philosophy was one of "enlightened" totalitarianism, though, nothing even remotely close to our "free" society, as un-free as it is.
Does that hold true for Europe?
I was looking for a MS in CS (looked in EU; as that's where I want to go for my MS) that would've help me with application of CS in liberal arts. I am specifically interested in fields like literature, history, and archaeology. Couldn't find anything.

I would want something where it doesn't just enabled me use CS tools and algo to apply to works in those fields (a crude example would be: use of some ML also on Shakespeare's works) but also lets me study both that field and CS.
I don't get this "we must ban something" approach. In the group of 100 people, even if 99 people will ban something, 1 person will still use it.

Isn't it better to find how you can defend against something (face recognition in this example) instead of convincing the people to "ban it"?

I mean, let's ban all wars, ban low income and ban evil. What sort of thinking is this?
Take a look at https://github.com/ethereumjs/ the Ethereum's JavaScript implementation.

I don’t think it’s helpful to think in such absolutist terms. Coal mine canaries died of natural causes. A canary is meant to prompt investigation (and heightened vigilence), not conclude it.
I mean that’s more or less accurate, is it not? Frog populations have been way down due to government policies on water quality and invasive species.
Many 'dating sites' are scams. This has legitimate uses but this makes it also decidedly a tool for running such scams. Also, lol:

ETA: If a good organisation wants to run a dating site, they could use this legitimately. It's not going to force them into a scam, it seems.

Maybe the fake profiles are just for testing purposes.

Just unfortunate marketing copy.
The British Isles are away from the plate edges where most disruptive geologic activity occurs (earthquakes, volcanoes, subduction, etc). The rest of Europe is along the edges of the plate and was geologically active. If you look at North West Brazil you can see very little happens for over 240 million years (away from plate edge) while Oceania has been very active for the last 100+ million years (and is still very active).

If you look at the ocean while you go back in time you can see large swaths that have very little detail. This is because that rock has been geologically recycled and is no longer part of the geologic record.
The worst language to teach someone as a first language has to be Java. It also might be the worst language to teach someone as a second language.
I found the review a bit odd tbh. It's weird to conclude with "does 10% less" after having pretty much the whole thing breaking down what was running the device.

For many cyclists, including myself, the Bolt has been a godsend. Garmin got way too complacent and their stuff began to just run so poorly. People are still looking for Edge 500's because they're so bomb proof. My Edge 510 crashed multiple times on me and equally as many times I needed to manually reset it via deleting stuff off it.
>Ancient Greeks were great philosophers but then their knowledge was buried during the Dark Ages by Muslim conquerors

Don't be silly. It was Christian Europe that lost and discarded the non-religious philosophical texts, and the Muslim Middle East that preserved them and advanced from them.
I couldn't even name 10% of the AWS services themselves.

Is there anything even remotely unethical about this?

Compiling publicly available data with purchased/proprietary data is basically the foundation of competitive/market research, isn't it?
And there's one of the caveats I mentioned.

Of course, it raises the concern - it's not the platform exercising free speech, it's a couple of individuals acting on behalf of the legal entity that owns the platform. Treating the platform, or the legal entity, as a being capable of expressing themselves - let's be honest with ourselves - is just a shield for the company owners to express themselves without being held accountable.
They should do an Adobe and put 2/3 letters inside a box, maybe also color coded

When it comes to the internet, Apple, Facebook, and Google are more powerful than the most powerful governments in the world. They should uphold the principles of free speech, despite not being required to by law.

Everything that is legal to say, which is almost everything, should have a equal access to these major platforms. Everyone else should have the basic faith in humanity that whatever problems this causes are a price worth paying of living in a free society.

I'm more concerned with the cynical fools gleefully espousing the anti-free speech perspective than I am with the relatively(!) small number of dumbos that follow people like Alex Jones.

Whatever happened to the beautiful American principle of defending the right of your fellow humans to have equal rights as yourself? Is it young people that don't know history, people becoming more cynical, or are we just hearing more from the loud fools?

My fundamental faith in humanity makes me believe we'll have a backlash from the freedom-loving majority. Most people are smart and principled and will see the error of going down this dark path. It may take a while but I'm not worried.
They do have many services, but 95% of their icons, including the early ones, make no sense at all.
Regulating the storage and processing of private biometric data might be a more realistic approach than regulating technology - that database of millions of people's faces is pretty much the only boundary between recognizing your ten friends and mass surveillance; the tech is quite similar but the data matters a lot.

Which is related to Amazon paying taxes ... exactly how?
For a novel that I read in a mostly linear fashion? Love e-readers.

For technical books where I’m using four fingers of my left hand to bookmark four different pages to flip back and forth to? Hate e-readers. They are simply far slower than paper at random access.

For anything where I’d like to appreciate the artistry of the book or its contents? Hate e-readers.
yet there would be nothing to market without the technical part so how can it have zero value ?

maybe your marketing has zero value because you're doing it wrong

I think the thing that saved the world was Stalin's stroke, if he had held onto power for longer he had the right kind of volatile personality to go 'fuck it' and start something..
Absolutely. I recognize that my ability to fast is likely much greater than most due to that being the norm for a significant part of my life. However I also believe that many people could train their body/brain to have a similar response if they really tried for a few weeks or a month. It's incredible what we can train out bodies to do if we believe.

Censoring "fake" news is not the way to a healthy democracy. Educating people on how to use different sources and do their own critical thinking is what we need.
Sure, by the private individual. The problem is many things that were major moments in world history didn't pass the ruling-class's "minimum legitimacy requirement" at the time. Top-of-my-head examples: the Magna Carta, the Protestant Reformation, Indian Independence, anybody else's independence, Snowden, etc.
Hah. Guess it depends on what siloed means. With a certain size you need to figure out ways of aligning/comunnicating things - whole AWS is probably thousands of people. You will get siloes.

On top of that: it’s not like all services were build at the same time. Some of them are the “bedrock” of Aws (S3, EC2), some of them are experiments that went viral.

On top of that: Aws is meant to give you building blocks. The magic happens at API/sdk level. The console is there to help you discover and play with the service in a few basic scenarios (and to maybe observer your resources). If you click your way through settings things up you’re going to probably have a bad time.
Well anyone remotely informed in the future would judge based on how obvious it was. While we may consider civil war amputations barbaric we don't blame them for it given their lack of alternatives. In addition to the bleed out risk preantibiotics it would become gangrenous and kill the patient even if done in a clean room by time travelers who lacked antibiotics. However we tend to have "what a bunch of idiots" reactions to lack of hygiene like ignoring advice to get water upstream from the latrines.

I doubt we would be judged over nonrenewable usage for advanced at the time tech if it takes say fifteen PHDs to understand how to fabricate a biodegradable future smartphone from say genetically modified algae based nanotech wafers that are subjected to a one hundred and fifteen step process.

AWS was built by a bunch of siloed teams. In the mid 2000's there was a mandate for each separate infrastructure team to open their infrastructure as a service, and they were given tight deadlines. This was meant to solve internal issues but was opened up to the world and AWS was born.

I still don't understand the argument, even less so with your explanation. Perhaps I'm missing something big.
I'm imagining a world where all the solar roofs have a "Tron Tile" to protect the system.
If a blockchain has a market cap of 1 billion USD, and uses proof of stake...then someone with <=500M of capital could mess with the chains data.

It's already being done to smaller proof of work chains.

So in this regard you have similar issues.
Yes - I do abstain from time to time but if it's a one on one meeting I want to make the other person feel at ease. In group settings I'm likely to get a soda water at the bar without the vodka and no one will be the wiser.
I am not sure how Amazon grew, but it is a fact that, nowadays, they are paying low wages, and that they are paying very little tax.

Hey there, I have the same vision. I drafted a blog post on Friday (just published it) discussing the first phase that I plan set in motion.

I would like to partner up with you on this.

Extra hot clip set – Channel FunnYCubemix №30 – Funny Cube channel (2018)
Simple NRZ for both clock and data. Data integrity is provided by parity bits in various fields and CRC32 for the payload.

I use token bus for media access control since it's fairly simple to implement and I don't need jam detection in any components.

Token passing enables a far more simpler software for simply being a passive client (ie, a sensor doesn't need to be able to control the bus, it only needs to respond while someone else is controlling the bus) and the active masters (which can cleanly pass control of the bus).

I don't mean any of this as offense to PJON either, it's an amazing protocol, the problems I have aren't solved by any product on the market.

It's also a good engineering challenge.
The article mentions 1000, but yeah, only three orders of magnitude if I'm not wrong on those terms, and we've already gone up eight orders of magnitude since the 80's (https://ourworldindata.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Increa...).
Yeah but this seems like a kind of pointless side-channel. Let's just assume that by the time this hits legislation the restriction will be on applying facial recognition and storing data on people's faces. Yeah we know you can implement it, we all did the coursera course on convnets.
7/20. i have never used aws. most of my points were from the matching section.

those are some garbage icons.
This is what depression is like.
I think the difference is not in how many people you can recognize, but what you do with the information.

* All existing laws should protect children, and protect people from discrimination. It should prevent the disclosure of health records. (So no AR apps that let you see who has what disease)

* The main concern is tracking people's location and movements and taking photographs and tagging people on social media sites.

* Some potential benefits are reducing crime and a "call parents" app that lets you call the parents of a misbehaving child without actually identifying the child to the person who has the app.
You're right! Gitlab is much better moderated than Facebook. Small, isolated services can be policed strictly in unscalable ways.

Perhaps there's another comparison to be made? Facebook's moderation, for all its many and myriad faults, is infinitely better than the stuff your average SMTP server sees every day.

Federated decentralized systems are a hell that combines the worst of both centralization and decentralization. It's a great way to offer users the features they want, but at the cost of a set of systems where there's no practical way to stem abuse.
Great example! I would like to check out your talk if you have a recording? I'm currently working on some plugins for https://www.openmined.org to connect to Unity and Minecraft to create local minecraft servers that are fed sensor data from the real world that triggers actions within a minecraft model of the players local environment. I am fascinated by the AR layers that are possible to connect game play to real world collective action.
The same thing that induces universities to behave reasonably well as neutral platforms. It is a combination of pressure from public esteem and the moral principles of the university (both the principles of individual administrators/professors and the principles explicitly endorsed by the organization as a whole). And all of that is interlinked.

It is an awful misconceptions that the only way to effectively get other people to act differently is with law. It is lazy and leads to unnecessary use of force. Most things that are bad are not illegal (e.g., lying to your friends, being mean, abandoning your parents, cheating on your spouse) and yet occur at much lower rates than they would without the many extra-legal mechanisms that keep them in check.

My main peeve with this is Google Podcasts which still doesn't allow you to subscribe to an RSS podcast. It solely allows you to listen to podcasts which Google is granted permission to upload to their own servers. As a podcast owner, I'm not comfortable agreeing to Google's terms, and have opted not to participate. To which I sometimes get complaints.

I don't understand why Google refuses to accept standard podcasting convention and let users consume my RSS feed direct and download my show from the servers I've provided.

For iTunes, as a counter example, de-listing InfoWars will hurt their discoverability obviously, but their listeners can easily subscribe themselves manually in the iTunes client.
These days, any argument featuring the word "toxic" is very likely flawed and should be ignored. There's far too much moralizing and far too little understanding going around.

Intellectual impoverishment is but one side-effect.
I love this, definitely treated one of the McDonald'ses in downtown Stockholm exactly like this on a trip last week. All my meals were, like, $10+ there, but hey, it's Scandinavia, I'll take it. (The truffle onion burger and sweet potato fries were amazing btw.)
Because of exotropia[0], I have extremely limited binocular vision. I have had several surgeries to keep my eyes from drifting off to the side but essentially all of my distance vision comes from size and context clues. Driving at night is difficult because it's hard to compare the sizes of headlights.

I (obviously) don't watch 3D movies too often. When the technology first came out, it was really bad and gave me not-quite-headaches, not-quite-nausea when wearing glasses. It's better now but I don't get nearly the effect that the movie makers are going for and some of the more blatant effects (like things jumping out of the screen) end up looking weird and off-putting -- like getting half an image and stuff.

Free speech refers to the freedom to not be thrown in jail by the government for things you have said that fall under protected speech. It has nothing to do with being allowed to post anything on any website you’d like.
You're right, it's more likely they are putting out the statement because they don't want their business to be ruined by having admitted to receiving an NSL. There are many ways someone can be coerced, and I don't need to guess the one in play here to discount their further excuses out of hand. At the point at which the canary is removed, their untrustworthiness is tautological; there is no combination of truth values which result in them being considered trustworthy.

That is the feature of canaries that makes them respected, and the need for such features is why secret courts are so corrosive to our society.
