Isn't it ruder to assume that you think exactly as I do? And why do you take offense at someone asking about your intent?

An action is meaningless in isolation and without context. Even something as "obvious" as killing a person cannot be right or wrong without being aware of the context in which it occurred and taking into account the intent of the person.

So we're discussing an action "trade war" and you're asking, essentially, is it right or wrong. You can't get a good answer without revealing what you're actually after. Other people merely assumed your intent, whereas I asked you about it.

There's a lot of this assumed intent these days, where people can't possibly imagine someone thinking differently than them. So if work with the "economic growth and standard of living increase" intent, then Trump's trade war is idiotic, and we can then show that in many different ways.

But Trump's supporters don't share this intent, they're perfectly fine with sacrificing economic growth for other outcomes, mostly about trying to protect their dominant group status. In light of that intent, the same action makes a ton of sense.

People should keep in mind that others don't think as they do.
> There is no western trade alliance because Trump is challenging the multi-lateral trade institutions such as the WTO which the US created.

The WTO is ineffective and broken. Based on prior precedent, if the US raised objections to the "China 2025" policy, the adjudication of the dispute will probably be finish sometime around 2030. In the past, the Chinese government has typically ignored adverse WTO rulings or dragged its feet until they were moot. IIRC, after all off that, only then will the WTO sanction tariffs. It's basically the definition of too little, too late.

Linking is only one step in package management.

Besides, in this scenario, it may not be viewed as a library a user should manage. The only benefit I can think of from linking is getting security patches without recompiling. That might easily not be a priority. Why is that a problem?
"We have also included controls so that participants can pause the experiment, see what browser history Laserlike has about them, or request deletion of that information.”

Where the hell are these controls? Since I installed this thing before reading that it'd send my data to some party, like an idiot, I'd like to request deletion of the data now, but I can't for the life of me find any sort of interface for it. What the fuck, Mozilla?

There's no real commentary in the original post. It's a relatively liberal copy/paste summarization of the research paper.
I've seen plenty of times how libraries compile just fine on less popular platforms and environments but then cause crashes at start or not link at all and how much time it wastes dealing with this. I thought these problems were widely known, that's why anyone who cares about porting tries to make self-contained single-sourced libraries.
"Right wing" applies to many dimensions, not just economics. Companies making economic decisions to maximize returns to shareholders and themselves is pragmatism, not the exercising of fundamental "right wing" beliefs.

If you exclude the economic dimension and consider the aggregate silicon valley stance with respect to the broad realm of politics, would you still maintain there is a right-leaning philosophy?

I'm glad to see a ML release a product but people who are overoptimistic about AR need to understand that this doesn't work in very low or bright light-- like being outdoors. So the idea that you are going to walk around a construction site, or get directions from it, are unrealistic. You are not going to wear it for long periods of time unless you are in a very controlled environment. Also, there is a long way to go in terms of field of view, so the idea that the display will annotate everything you see is a long ways off.

I believe this technology will advance, but I think some of the unrealistic expectations do not help.
There's a really easy way to tell if something is that type of light field display and ML is clearly not. Such a display would only be visible from a single point.

From the very weak way ML is using the term light field, anytime there is light, there is a light field. An LCD monitor produces a light field.
Sure, I'm all for distributing the source. Doesn't mean it needs to be a single file. It should probably have a makefile which spits out an archive file, which you link to in your application.

In no way was there an attempt to transfer risk.

Facebook was a community platform where I could reach out to the people I knew and loved - my friends and family. That's the only reason I made Facebook posts.

Regarding moderation - do you agree that something can be both moderation and censorship at the same time?

To make this more clear, consider Facebook's relationship with the Turkish government. Facebook will moderate the content in Turkey to what is allowed speech in that country, including moderation to remove criticism of the government.

Is that moderation or censorship? Or is it both?
Ignoring how ethically insane it is to justify human rights abuses under the guise of national sovereignty, this same sovereignty would allow the US to cease trade relations.

I am highly skeptical of using Wolfram Alpha like this. It steadfastly refuses to explain how it got its answer or what sources it used. These are high pressures and large densities.

What are the error bars? Are they talking about pure Hydrogen-1 or are they talking about the isotopic mix found in sea water? (The latter is a small correction, but it’s still something that they should explain on the site.)

Why is a trade deficit bad? Is there some reason the capital account surplus needs to flow out instead of in? What negative effect do you perceive the trade deficit as having in the economy?

Trade deficits are basically neutral. They fund the foreign investment in the US and purchases of US bonds by foreign governments.

"Property" cards can be very useful, even if only as a reminder. I can recall a card I had (back when I used Anki regularly) which asked you to draw a diagram showing how different types of convergence are related to each other (e.g., L2 convergence implies...). Just the exercise of constructing that diagram was very educational by itself.

At first glance, it seems to support geometrical operations that neither of those have built in. Things like "draw the incircle of this triangle" and "draw a perpendicular from a line to this point" and "find the intersection of these circles." So if you can construct your figure using compass-and-straightedge, you can probably cobble it together using the existing API without touching trigonometry or vector manipulations at all.

Maybe it's because I haven't managed to configure it correctly but I was always a bit underwhelmed by the way it works by default. If you try to learn a language you can do a bunch of cards for vocabulary (my main use case) and it'll keep flashing the words and ask you if you got it right. You never have to input the words yourself, it's always foreign -> native or native -> foreign etc... I really missed not having to actually write the translation myself, I find that it helps massively when you're learning the spelling of the words.

Eventually I dropped Anki for the (closed source and freemium) memrise and I've been using ever since, I currently have a one year streak going. When learning vocab it actually asks you to write it down, or pick the correct translation from multiple choices which makes it a little less repetitive and more stimulating. It also has a few professionally made decks for some languages which are pretty decent in my experience. In the end it works a lot better for me.

But again maybe it's anki's defaults that aren't for me, but if that's the case they're pretty mediocre defaults IMO.

Antisemitism had been pretty "normal" for 2 millenia in Europe. Would you go to a holocaust museum and roll your eyes at them, too? Mayne tell them the death camps in annexed territories were bad, but that all the stuff from 1933 to 1939 should be removed, because it was just internal politics and making a judgement about that just shows how little one knows.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stolperstein

Can you even imagine how many of those were put up in response to mere internal politics? You should clear up how none of that was bad, would save a lot of money on maintaining exhibits, and archiving survivor testomies and all that.

> More than half the people we met along the way during our journey spoke of family members or acquaintances who were "sent to school." One driver in Hotan talked about his 72-year-old grandfather. A person in Urumqi told the story of his daughter's professor. An airplane passenger spoke of his best friend.

I guess they forgot to mention that authoritarianism has been the norm in China for centuries, so being tortured or a loved one being disappeared and killed doesn't really bother them. They have a "different system and freedom", after all. As does anyone who moves there, anyone the secret police gets their paws on, even internationally. When they get locked up and murdered, they don't really feel it the same way you or I do. When they have families and friendships, it's not like they're actually sad when that ends. They don't suppress showing pain they feel, they simply don't feel it in the first place.

This is a good point. Personally, I think the inverted pyramid means that China won't achieve parity with US in per capita wealth. However, there's still a ton of growing that it can do. Think of all the millions of cars, washing machines, air conditioners, not to mention increased consumption of pharmaceuticals, personal care, apparel, meat, etc.

Your claim was: "The tech companies are _significantly_ right wing on any spectrum including countries outside the USA". Structuring your company to maximize financial returns is hardly a good representative of the complexity of right/left leaning in the aggregate.

Once again, your imagination is projecting ideas onto your mental representation of me. To test whether this is true, review the conversation and find where I said anything remotely advocating "subscribing to free speech at “Alex Jones” cost (effectively any)".

There is a way out of this situation, but it isn't a zero effort endeavor.

This isn't quite correct. They have the ability to hold you for 24 hours without formally arresting/imprisoning you.

The prosecutor would have a 5th option (drop charges and release the person within the first 24 hours). That is more likely than #1 and #2.

Understood but a 24 hour hold wouldn't be affected by this proposal as far as I'm aware.

Yes this is critical - free trade benefits the economy/country as a whole but the benefits do not accrue evenly across society.

Laymen have basically been saying this for years while being ignored by the ruling elites but economists have been slowly starting to get on board.
