> Churchill was a notorious scoundrel

The topic of churchill was the first time I realized I lived in a bubble. In the US, we laud churchill as a great statesman and take pride in that he's half-american by his american mother. He's seen as, next to FDR, the most important man in the fight against nazi germany to free europe. And naively we assume the rest of the world also loves churchill. Turns out much of the world hates churchill because the guy was virulently racist, genocidal and a war criminal. The things churchill said and did were no different than what hitler said and did. The first time I heard my indian colleague say something negative about churchill, I was shocked because I was so conditioned into thinking the guy represented good.

"As the resistance swelled, he announced: "I hate Indians. They are a beastly people with a beastly religion." This hatred killed. To give just one, major, example, in 1943 a famine broke out in Bengal, caused – as the Nobel Prize-winning economist Amartya Sen has proved – by the imperial policies of the British. Up to 3 million people starved to death while British officials begged Churchill to direct food supplies to the region. He bluntly refused. He raged that it was their own fault for "breeding like rabbits". At other times, he said the plague was "merrily" culling the population."

Were it not for the unprecedented horrors of hitler, churchill would rank up there with the worst of the leaders of the 20th century.
This certainly looks interesting.

One of my favorite seemingly overlooked gSheet features is the ability to attach JavaScript including a UrlFetch() capability.

I hate the is way of arguing. You don't decided that XX dollars is fair -- you decide that XX dollars, given everything you know, is fair. So XX dollars, if that is the best price might be okay, but XX dollars, given that there is a coupon or a sale next month is not a fair price.
Have you read CNN in the past 2 years? They are blatantly anti-trump and frequently push their 'analysis'(ie opinion) section as the top-billed story on their homepage.

The actual news and journalism that fox news and CNN puts out is fine. The opinion/analysis sections of both sites are heavily partisan in one way or the other though.

The difference between your threat model and mine is that yours is based on concern for random people running small mail servers. I understand and respect that threat model, though I do not appreciate or really care about it.

On the other hand: I believe email is a technological dead end, and that we are not evolving towards an Internet with a more distributed email system, but with less distribution. I think that, from a utilitarian perspective, the only mail servers that matter are the ones that Google and its peers run, and that's the threat model I care about.

In my threat model, MTA-STS basically eliminates the concern DNSSEC/DANE addresses. Since your threat model includes rarely-used independently-operated servers (note that mine includes things like Fastmail and Proton!), servers that won't have cached assertions, MTA-STS is inadequate for your needs.

The problem I have with your argument is that to fix your problem, which is an extreme niche, you require the radical centralization of all cryptographic trust on the Internet into a tree-shaped PKI whose roots and trunks are controlled by world governments and whose technical underpinnings date back to the 1990s. Even if I was to stipulate that you had a point, DNSSEC wouldn't be a viable answer to it.

But that's a normative argument, and my point about DNSSEC being done is positive, not normative: deployment of MTA-STS is going to end DNSSEC. Not because I want it to (though I do) or because it should (though it should) but because it will: it drives a stake through the heart of the last truly motivating problem that DNSSEC was going to solve.
Agreed, 3 minutes makes soggy noodles. I like the bar to just be broken up so the noodles still have some texture and I usually toss out the included seasoning packet and toss in a packet of the red-pepper flakes that come with delivery pizza. The parmesan of the same variety works pretty well too, as does a couple dashes of wasabi, soy, fish sauce, siriacha, the list goes on and on.

I don't think that's close to true? However, this post and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18079479, which is related, made it into the second-chance queue (described at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11662380 and the links back from there). Not for any particular reason; they just looked like two good articles that the community might be interested in, which seems to be the case.
Can’t Google do manual penalties for some sites? How hard would it be for them to do manual bonuses for the top 100 sites in the world. That would be pretty much equivalent to domain authority, and I expect Google is doing just that.
But it's no secret that the content you see on Facebook is the content Facebook and advertisers want you to see, not content you'd be interesting it in the first place.

Maybe I'm stubborn or stupid but I fail to see the problem. What make you think Facebook should have the interest of their users at heart to begin with, except to attract more users? The users are not their customers, the advertisers are. And anyway, nobody is forcing anyone to use Facebook or any social media at all.

> Hi! Fanout founder here. I’m glad you like our way of doing things. If you need better pricing for high volume we are always willing to discuss.

Hi! Wasn't expecting you to show up like this. Re. pricing for high volume, I'm sure enterprises and publishers could afford it, I'm trying to see if it's possible to offer free or very cheap service to individuals with large audiences. So not so much that I want a high volume discount, I'm trying to figure out a way to make it one or two orders of magnitude cheaper, enough that pricing is no longer relevant. Self hosting Pushpin is an option, but CF might be easier to work with.

> I’m not sure you’d want to maintain a WebSocket inside of a CF worker. At least I can’t see that helping with cost. Execution time limits would get you too.

The CF edges already hold / passthrough websockets - whether the Workers API is conducive to controlling them is the question, but we know it already allows streaming - doesn't seem like big jump from there. And for my purposes one-way streaming is enough, so might not even need to change the API. And based on the current billing model it seems like only CPU time is billed (?) - so if the socket is waiting most of the time it's still cost effective. And connection management itself would still be outside the scope of the worker - I'm saying the worker's event loop should behave exactly the way it would if I using the streaming feature right now to make a 1000 slow network requests from the worker and streamed the responses out as the worker received them. Only the protocol would change.
DNSSEC advocates also believe DANE is needed to address the weaknesses in things like HPKP and HSTS. Of course, nobody else does, no mainstream browser implements DANE, and at least two have attempted to support DANE and then withdrew that support.

Do you mean that this change is a regression for most users? In which case do you have data to back that up?

Or do you mean that a change which regresses for a small number of users while improving for most is bad? In which case this is not correct and I'm happy to elaborate on why.

E.g. in Iceland you can vote with a driver's license, a passport or a national ID. Those cost, respectively, $45, $110 and $40. Although I see now the first national ID you get issued in your life is free, but if you ever lose it you pay the fee to renew it.

It's the same sort of thing in most European countries, you need to prove who you are, and usually doing that costs some one-off nominal fee. Voting is always going to carry some cost, whether that's money or in externalities imposed on voters.

I'm not saying Iceland and other European countries are "comparable to the US", I'm sure we could spend all day moving that particular goal post.

I was just pointing out that there's nothing wrong per-se with requiring ID to vote. I'm somewhat familiar with the US history on the matter, and realize that in practice, and I think uniquely in the US, it's a wedge issue that's historically been motivated by voter disenfranchisement.

But it's important to separate that practical concern about particular implementations from the very notion that having a national ID system and using it for things like voting could never work.

I'm curious about how this works in practice. If you're a tourist visiting the US during a vote can you just show up to a voting polling station and cast a vote? If you don't have to show your ID what happens from the time you walk up to a polling station until you cast your vote and walk out again?
For Haskell try:

-- Memorized variant is near instant even after 10000
memoized_fib :: Int -> Integer
memoized_fib = (map fib [0 ..] !!)
where fib 0 = 0
fib 1 = 1
fib n = memoized_fib (n-2) + memoized_fib (n-1)

or

fibM = \n -> values !! n
where values = [fibAux m | m <- [0..]]
fibAux n | n <= 1 = n
| otherwise = fibM (n-2) + fibM (n-1)

or

fibM2 :: Int -> Integer

where values = [fibAux m | m <- [0..]]
fibAux 0 = 0
fibAux 1 = 1
fibAux n = fibM2 (n-2) + fibM2 (n-1)

Run the following at the ghci Haskell prompt:

It's the software that tries to catch promotional votes a.k.a. voting rings. It does sometimes get things wrong, which is probably what happened here.

As sctb said, though, it's user flags that affected the post's rank the most. Perhaps the editorialized title had something to do with that (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18097611), and/or perhaps there is just fatigue with this class of submissions. People come to HN for unpredictable things, so whenever something starts to get predictable, they get ornery.
Nearly all service work is done with the magnetic field up as ramping down is a massive deal. iPhones and iPads work fine until very close and it’s what the documentation is kept on for the vendors I know (Siemens and GE, Philips use Microsoft gear). Philips require photos of the cold head, which is pretty close in. Get too close to the bore and they turn off for a bit, which is probably due to cutting flux lines quickly. Id suspect it doesn’t help their lifespan but I’ve yet to see it kill a phone.

>”E.g. you can’t vote on an issue without hearing both sides of it and passing a test that demonstrates that you understand the pros and cons...”

I think this would be thoroughly gamed. You’d get “cheat sheets” on how to answer, or more importantly, you’d disenfranchise poorly educated people or people with learning disabilities (who afaik, still have a right to vote.)
I was logged out of my account, but reviewing logs of devices that are using/have used my account in the past I don't see anything suspicious. What is the likelihood that the account was breached and accessed without triggering any of those systems? Is it plausible to speculate that it was possible for accounts to have been accessed without users receiving emails from Facebook?
There is a usefulness gradient. The more fungible and liquid an asset it is, the more useful it is as a medium of exchange and store of value.
BC Native, here. We're now staring down our 3rd referendum on switching to Proportional Representation.

2005 Referendum was 57.7% Yes, 61% turnout, required 60% to pass.

2009 Referendum was 39% Yes, 55% turnout, required 60% to pass.

This year, we get to vote on both Yes/No, as well as rank three possible systems - current polls are 32% no, 33% yes, 33% undecided, and MMP with 49% support. To pass, we require only 50% Yes votes, but there's a clause that will have us do a followup in 8 years (2 election cycles) as to whether to keep the PR system or go back to FPTP.

I'm very happy with the "50% but built-in allowance for takebacks" setup this time around.
So we should just throw out all of the protections implemented by stock market from lessons learned there - as a means to protect society? I really don't understand why financial regulators have turned a blind eye to the obvious nature for the structures of Bitcoin etc. They're decentralized Ponzi-Pyramid schemes, with a promise and tie-in into technology - which doesn't nullify the negative scheme structure.

There's a good trick I once heard called "Don't break the streak." You know what you want to stop doing, so focus on getting through just this day without doing that thing.

Then the next day remind yourself that you've got a streak going -- one entire whole day, and you could make it two if you make it to the end of this day. And then keep the streak going the next day and the next...

Basically, it gives a feeling for what you're doing -- an in-built reward for successfully not-doing it.

She sounds like a terrible mother, but those lines aren’t wrong. I squandered a lot of my youth, and I’m paying the price now. I can’t change it, and even if I could I doubt my younger self would take it serious, but how you spend your twenties really determine how you spend the next 40 years of your life. That’s not to say you can’t change or catch up, Churchill is a testimony to that, but the hard work won’t do itself.
> I think that, from a utilitarian perspective, the only mail servers that matter are the ones that Google and its peers run, and that's the threat model I care about.

I'd be surprised if Google doesn't already enforce TLS for other big peers like Microsoft. In your universe, what do we need a broken standard for?

> you require the radical centralization of all cryptographic trust on the Internet into a tree-shaped PKI

Web PKI isn't radically centralized? It's worse than radically centralized, because you can break Web PKI by attacking the weakest CA.

> it drives a stake through the heart of the last truly motivating problem that DNSSEC was going to solve.

MTA-STS may give people cover to pretend they don't need DNSSEC. But make no mistake: it doesn't actually solve the problem.

It's interesting that technical opinions of DNSSEC have devolved into such irrational hatred that people will openly proclaim that fake security is better than actual, DNSSEC-provided security. Yes, DNSSEC is complex. Yes, it has issues with network privacy. But those arguments don't redeem MTA-STS, which is fundamentally broken.

Many historical figures are like that. Both great & terrible. Ghandi, too, had his major flaws completely unbefitting his image.
And yet, were it not for Churchill, the unprecedented horrors of Hitler may have gone completely unchecked, or else only been stopped by the even greater horrors of Stalin.

Churchill was the cornerstone of Britain's continued resistance, and the primary reason they didn't sue for peace after the fall of France. Hitler would have let Britain and her empire survive had they left him unmolested; Churchill instead led the country down the road of stopping Hitler, ultimately at the cost of her empire.

> Up to 3 million people starved to death while British officials begged Churchill to direct food supplies to the region. He bluntly refused. He raged that it was their own fault for "breeding like rabbits".

This is an extremely common criticism of foreign aid and even private philanthropy to this day, to the point where the Gates Foundation lists it as one of the "10 tough questions" they get asked: https://www.gatesnotes.com/2018-Annual-Letter#ALChapter5

I'm not trying to whitewash or excuse Churchill, but like many other historical figures whose actions and attitudes would be repugnant to us today (including even Abraham Lincoln), his failings are not as important as his heroism, at least to those of us living in a Western world that may have fallen to totalitarianism but for Churchill's resilience. Though I certainly don't blame your Indian colleague for his own perspective.
