>Even if it actually happened

You could not believe me (as a random person on the web), but your phrasing implies that you also consider this somehow beyond the realm of possibility. It happened in Athens, if that matters.

>do you seriously feel that this actually works in changing the attitude of a society

Yeah, where's the surprise? Changes in demographics, like an increased presence of people with more conservative values in an area, can, and do, change the attitudes of a society, just like immigration can influence cuisine, music, religion, and other cultural aspects.
In that graph their GDP per capita is growing on par with the U.S. The US added 35 million people in that time frame and started from a higher base where you would expect growth to be more difficult. That meets my criteria of a relative decline, especially considering the Japan of the early 90s.
I'm going to make a very controversial point for the sake of argument, not one I am even sure I agree with.

In my line of work, I don't see an increase in privacy happening, I see exactly the opposite despite increasing privacy measures.

In fact, I see observation (video, audio, etc.) devices are literally going to be everywhere. They are in our devices, homes, cars, transportation vehicles (aircraft, public transit), cities, streets - there is nearly nowhere to hide - for any of us.

Whether this is right or wrong may not matter any more unless it can be controlled. Can it be controlled?

If it cannot be controlled, I see only one other option - and this is the sticky point...

..we have to be ready to face ourselves and each other publicly at all times. There will be little to no way to hide, to maintain privacy, etc. Our cultures will have to adapt, perhaps, at first, by trying to hide, enacting laws, etc. However, if it is inevitable that privacy cannot be maintained, then I argue, our culture will have to evolve.

Perhaps the culture of the future will protect your child from sexual predators in a different way. Perhaps we will have equal potential to be seen naked publicly whether on the Internet, a nude beach, regardless of age, gender or ethnicity.

To ensure the safety and security of society, people will have to change, even if our accepted norms of nudity, sexuality, etc. change. I can only hope that we as humans will be able to evolve to handle the changed paradigm and still ensure reasonable safety and security of society.

I will say, I believe people today globally already have to be extremely more open-minded than ever before, on average, just to mentally cope with how we have changed as humans.

Feel free to debate me here.. as I said, I am not sure if even I believe what I'm writing, but.. I'm trying to be open-minded about it.
I suspect ride hailing, just like taxies, is only viable in large, extremely dense cities. Those are really rather rare in the US. I don't know that they will be any more disruptive than taxies in the US unless society changes.
It is not precisely treated as a crime in the US. That is to say, below a certain amount, the police will not raid your house and take you to a judge.

It is more treated like a parking fine. First, the IRS needs to audit me. Then, they need to prove that I actually made this income or spent this income in a certain way that requires reporting.

Once they've proven that, I don't go to jail. I just pay the missing amount of taxes with a 5% penalty.

If I were to buy weed with Bitcoin, that would be a Federal crime. But in some US states and some countries, it actually wouldn't be a crime at all.

So, your criticism isn't as black and white as you think.
In the early days Excel focused heavily on compatibility with Lotus 1-2-3 which was dominant.

Excel never obfuscated their save code. I've seen it in person. They did just memcpy their data structures, which was the most efficient way to save on tiny machines of the day. Lotus did that too.

I've also seen and helped implement the Open Document spec. This is not a simple problem and you are doing yourself a disservice by blinding yourself to the scale of the task.

If you want to make an impact and don't have Google level budgets then leveraging OpenOffice is the only sane approach.

I live in Barcelona (expat). On the "main" beach (Barceloneta) you'll find full on nudity, mixed with tourists, families and others who aren't nude. The thing is, truely no one cares. It is so not sexual, and i am yet to see someone treating it as sexual. I don't ever see people recoding the nudity. Every beach I go to along the coast here (and up the Costa brava) I find nudity. Young, old, male, female, you name it. I expect to see peni, balls and breasts any beach I go to. I don't know what it is about this side of the world, but nudity is still completely separate from sex. No one will bat an eyelid if you decide to go nude. This is maybe a generalisation but after almost 3 years I'm yet to see people complain or be uncomfortable about the nudity here. I don't really have another other point, just mentioning my observations.
Someone knows a good software to search a large amount of text pdfs locally? Something like mendeley & zotero?
Notion for everything: my work, personal, and wife+I joint workspace.
I do exactly the same thing. Nothing beats text files, a deep folder structure and full text search (and ubiquitous access via Dropbox). I get a ton of value out of my system.

The thing that I find really makes things click is to figure out/set up good keyboard shortcuts and then practice them, so that you are able to save files to anywhere in your organiser hierarchy very very quickly. Say an average of five seconds per file. They say a 10x quantitative change is a qualitative change; once I had this down, I started using it a ton more and treating it kind of like an extension of my memory.

For Mac users some useful starting points for this technique are Default Folder X and ClipMenu.

Everyone how had experience from alternatives hated Windows.

You have now idea how bad, inelegant and even technologically behind the Window's was back then. They exploited their monopoly power to the max.

Microsoft hated and did not care about the internet protocols. They pushed NetBEUI instead. Early Windows socket API was crap and unreliable compared to BSD sockets. and Netscape and web apps provided major service for abstracted that shit away. I think Intel engineers had basically rewrite the TCP/IP stack for MS at some point.

Today people see X Window System as outdated, but at the time it was simpler, better and more robust than Windows. We actually bought number of gigantic but old dummy graycolor X window terminals and connected it to old 386 Linux server we used as a development machine and it was a great experience compared to anything Windows.

I was working in a small company that did mostly stuff for Unix (and linux) but unlike PG and Viaweb we decided to develop complex IDE to Windows and it had to work everywhere in the world. It was just horrible programming experience.

Absolutely. It's fascinating how different dietary cultures develop and adapt to their environment in a surprisingly efficient manner. Nothing is wasted. Need to store meat for long periods of winter? Smoke it. Need it on the go? We'll use the left over bits to make sausages. What? You need side dishes that doesn't go bad for a long time? We'll pickle it, store it under ground to ferment it. Huh, you are throwing away all that extra cabbage roots from making kimchi? Put that in a soup or 시락국 containing high levels of Omega-H3 from the broth containing tiny fishes.

They appeal to sexuality specifically because it is edgy and shocking to a large percentage of the population. American media is quite prude on the whole.

Don't forget that many of the early settlerd in the USA were literally Puritans. Hard-right moralizing Christianity has always felt at home here.

Also, as stated in many other places in this thread, it's ridiculous to ascribe to change to Islam.
Unlike Google and Apple, Microsoft really doesn't care what you run on their OS or do with their hardware. Though it is not quite 'freedom' in the OSS evangelical sense, I'll still take it any day over the other two, Chrome/Google in particular. YMMV.
Before smartphones, being naked on a beach is a social contract where you see each other naked at the price of being naked yourself. The ability to make pictures murks that social contract; it allows to "cheat".

> Overall we arent all that purdish.

Not everyone in the USA is, but do you remember the drama about Janet Jackson's nipple? Or how protective ratings in games and movies/series are regarding anything related to sex, yet violence seems totally OK? That's the double standard of the USA. It doesn't have to be this way.

Before the innovation of smartphones with high quality cameras young children, here, used to be just naked on beach. It also used to be very normal to breastfeed in public.

But there are various possible factors as the article describes. Since as you need to lock your smartphone up (not allowed to take with you) this doesn't explain why saunas are now more prudent.
Some people would kill the lice first but sophisticated users preferred live ones which enabled advanced effects like 'dynamic text' and 'escape sequences'.
> Opening markets when these foreign actors very recently attacked your population is basically suicide.

Do you have evidence to support this claim? You seem to be conflating these countries’ governments with their businesses.

Also, can you clarify what you mean by “attacked their population”?
Hey Ian, thank you very much for your feedback! I understand your point, I think it is very valid. Thank you for pointing it out.
Naturally there are more men born than women.

I'd guess also more men than women migrate to the US for work.

Men used to die in large number from war and work, not so anymore.

The entire article suffers from a common misconception that former communist countries "suffered horribly from lack of innovation," when it was a negative against many other positives of the time. Food was cheaper and higher quality than now. For example, Czechs still love this cookbook because it set a high bar for quality of ingredients for schools and work cafeterias. They don't see it as confining as much as defining.
I use http://papersapp.com/ for handling PDF papers from arxiv.org etc.

It seems they have merged with readcube who want a yearly subscription however I was still able to buy a life time license to papers app a few months ago. I guess support will slowly disappear but for now its working great, with PDF sync via dropbox onto my iPad or iPhone, the ability to draw and take notes and search as well as download new papers. For your own PDFs I guess this would still work pretty well since you can search and annotate, create smart groups etc.

Sweet, this is my second stupidest comment on this website.
The change is very noticeable in public bathhouses here in Sweden. It used to be that one day in the week had bath clothes as optional, while now we have instead separate men and women days in order to be more inclusive to cultures where women don't feel confident to be in swim clothes in the same building (The official written statement).

As the article points out historically nudism used to been a progressive cause where the conservative right was against it, while today those positions has almost switched sides. I have yet to see a Swedish politician that both support nudist and Muslim to choose what clothes they want to use in public spaces, even if occasionally someone slip their tongue and say things like "Neither government or corporation should decide what clothes people should wear".

The smartphone argument that the article brings up sounds wrong. While it could be true for a beach, not many would voluntary bring expensive electronics to a sauna and most bathhouses has now days a ban for it anyway. Relax areas want to keep noise and photoing down, while other areas which allow kids want parents to keep track of their children and reduce the risk of drowning. If smartphones with cameras was a major contributors to this cultural change then we should expect to see a much small impact for saunas and public bathhouses that forbid smartphones, and yet I doubt the data support that.
batteries are getting cheaper but good long term reliable batteries will still set you back a bit. I have had an electric mower, edger, and blower. I only kept the last item. The first just didn't last well enough even with a spare battery and it was already degrading before the end of the season. The edger just didn't cut it, sorry about the pun.

There are riding electric mowers but the cost keeps most off of them and honestly unless it has thermal management I am not soaking money into one.

If anything shows how far they need to go is motorcycles. Yeah there are a few decent ones out there but if you do highway speeds their mileage plummets.

and finally comes charging, it is silly enough with phone, table, head sets, and more. now I will need a garage full of at minimum 20a 240v plugs if not higher rated. homes just are not designed around that yet
> Will these more upmarket Chromebooks (which have x86 CPUs and acceptable RAM & storage) be OK to run any regular Linux distro?

They aren't ideal. But they do have a good alternative that is in its late beta stages. Typically you could run a Linux distro in a chroot on the chromebook, after putting it into developer mode. Unfortunately the chroot does have limits - fox example it doesn't get another IP address so you can't coexist much with ChromeOS - such as using avahi.

The new approach (named Crostini) instead uses a lightweight kvm based virtual machine mechanism to run a Linux guest isolated from the host. They also (by default) use the hardened ChromeOS kernel inside the guest. Note that not all chromebooks are currently supported but a new x86 chromebook should be fine.

It's probably a representation of the video data that has value to providing autonomy. Plus all the path & geo data. With a few hundred thousand cars collecting it, I'd say that's "massive".
I use Evernote for ebooks, papers, articles and personal notes. Probably wouldn't work well for movies or large photo albums (I iCloud for stuff like that). I use their chrome extension, desktop app and mobile app and it works really well. It's really nice to be able to search everything I've ever written in notes or clipped on the web. It also has some support for OCR for paper notes, and does a decent job of indexing text in PDFs. I searched for an open source or self hosted solution for a long time, but ultimately broke down and chose a well supported commercial solution.

I believe a more relevant observation is: How many women go topless in non-nudist areas?

In Florida, where I grew up, it was common in the 1980s to hear about European women visiting the beach and not realizing that women were required to cover their breasts. From what I understand, it's now uncommon in many parts of Europe where it once was common.

What you describe is not casual nudity that Europe (in my American viewpoint) was known for. Compare what you wrote with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freik%C3%B6rperkultur - being nude without direct relationship to sexuality. As the Economist writes, "stripping off while gardening, playing sports or taking lunch breaks in the park."

Advertisements, judging nudes, etc. are saying that being nude is not usual.
Evernote's search sucks(at least for a free user). can't(sometimes) even handle synonyms well. Sadly, there's no better alternative.
I think it’s because in the 80s there weren’t 17 y/o YouTube/instagram celebs running around taking pictures of everything and posting it on social media. One thing is to be topless on a beach and another is to end up in someone’s compilation nude video on Instagram
Ride-on mower companies are entering the electric space - Ryobi and Troy-Bilt have consumer-level options, Cub Cadet have a prosumer/light pro model (RZT S Zero), and Mean Green make a full line of commercial grade electric mowers.

Electric chainsaws have been a thing for years and have moved from the trimmer size space to the prosumer/light pro space (see the Husqvarna 536Li XP).

Hoover make a full sized appearance canister/upright hybrid vacuum (Air Cordless Lift). In this space, though, I think the prevalence of smaller stick-style cordless vacuums is because the technology enables them rather than because the technology can't be scaled up. The Dyson V6/V7/V8/V10 models aren't great in terms of quality IMO but are very convenient and popular and the V10 is more than sufficient for home vacuuming tasks.

I don't think technology is necessarily to blame, but it definitely can exacerbate the problem, especially in a highly individualistic culture like that of the United States.

I think urbanization also plays a huge part in the trend. I grew up in a rural area, with pretty much most of my family located within a two-hour drive. This included my mom's side, who all grew up an hour away from where I did (which is where my dad's family is from). So it was easy for me to connect with family and friends, and I knew a lot of their friends' kids, etc.

Urbanization is changing this, though. People are leaving the rural areas (and for good reasons admittedly), but it's destroying the bonds that they form during their childhood and that continue across generations in some cases. Even a short stint away of 4 years, like what I did when I left to go to University, can make the connections difficult to reactivate when you come home (especially based on difference of shared experiences with those who didn't go to university, or who went somewhere local instead of out-of-state, etc.). And that's assuming your friend group from high school/right after stays around and doesn't leave the area themselves.

And, when you get to a new city, especially if it's after university (where you're forced to interact with people and where it's fairly easy to make friends), there's a good chance of knowing so few people it makes it difficult to enter social circles that don't involve work. Having hobbies definitely helps with this, but that also depends on having money in a lot of cases, and time in all cases.
Moving to NYC saved my life. I was depressed, lonely, insecure, and starving socially. When I got here, I discovered a city of people who were earnest, open to meeting others, and happy to welcome me into their lives. What makes this city so great for people like me is that it forces you to both strive for better and not take yourself so seriously (because no one fucking cares). It's a city full of selfish, caring, hardworking, arrogant, kind people. It's this balance that makes life great.
Gnumeric is my go to spreadsheet app on Linux. Significantly faster than Calc, although not as feature rich.
Drab is a hex package, so asking if it supports hot code reloading isn't the right question. As to the second question, the answer is yes assuming your server side hot code didn't break the client session, and didn't introduce an API mismatch.
It is not a question of age, most of my older colleagues as an intern used desktop apps / GUI git clients and had few UNIX experience.
This isn't a task you should be doing. Simply put, an OS should keep record of where you got things from, and where it was sent/copied to. That info should stay with you when moving between computers. It should try to tag the files accordingly.

Disk indexing isn't enough to answer "where is that file", when you moved it for example to cold-storage.

Note that by this definition Windows is not an OS :) Linux came closest with the failed Nepomuk.

The newest Zero electric motorcycles will go around 100 miles at real highway speeds, which isn't bad compared to most small-tank gas motorcycles (although obviously lack of refueling options is an issue). I do think they're a good illustration of the cost issue, though, as they're astronomically expensive.
