It doesn't need to help us resolve the disagreement to be useful to explain why the disagreement is there in the first place, though.

And, in practice, there are large groups of people who do share the broad definitions of "fairness", and therefore saying that something is fair or unfair is useful to communicate the idea within those groups. This is not something that people really like to see put quite so explicitly, but when we say something "this should not be so because it is unfair", it carries an implicit "... and I don't care what those who disagree with me about what 'unfair' means think".
So I tried moving off Chrome 68 to Firefox 62 today, and it's quite noticeably slower than Chrome. Here's a couple GIFs from Gmail to show what I mean [1]. I start both of them at the exact same frame that I release the Enter key, so you can see exactly how much longer Firefox takes. Notice that it takes longer to render the Star/Important icons, too (including the very noticeable flash of placeholder text), not merely load the page. The situation gets even worse when I install extensions, but these are on profiles that have already visited this page, but which are otherwise fresh. (Edit: Trying it on Facebook with a clean profile now. I realized I hadn't cleaned the profile before testing non-Google sites.)

So I have to say, I'm really baffled. How are people switching to Firefox and finding it to be so fast? Is this speed difference unnoticeable for everyone but me?

UPDATE:

On Facebook, I see similar speeds without extensions. However, when I browse with my usual extensions, Firefox is again noticeably slower -- even though the extensions in Firefox are literally a subset of those in Chrome. Are other people's experiences similar?

> Money is to be made in loans, mortgages and credit cards.

Indeed, and for that you have to be a Wells Fargo-like behemoth with your own legal team, abilities to handle defaults, etc, etc. Big banks are big for a reason.

Most of the app-only "banks" wants to be your transaction processor for a fee, essentially a middlemen. This is a standard strategy.

> TransferWise has significantly better fees than Revolut for currency conversion and also offers a card.

Do you have a few data points by chance?

I have both cards and I'm trying to figure it out (mostly for CHFEUR). At first glance it seems that TransferWise fees give you a rate that is as good or a little better than MasterCard (Visa is typically quite a bit more expensive). Also during weekends, TansferWise should beat Revolut. However when FX markets are open, it's not clear (mid-market + fee with TW, bid/ask rates with Revolut afaik).

I don't feel like FastMail is that expensive for most people.

Obviously, compared to free, it's expensive. But in real terms, I pay $70 every 2 years for it - works out about £25 a year for me, which is about the price of a meal out. I think that's worth it for secure and powerful email. I've never found it to be expensive.
My theory is that Jobs' main task at Apple was to create theater to distract the press and business folk, so that Woz and the rest of Apple's technical staff could get some decent work done while nobody was looking.
For the self-hosted folks there are:

https://mailcow.email/ - dockerized, works with multiple domains, sogo for groupware. Compared to mailinabox's single disk, it has 6 docker volumes to keep track of.

https://mailu.io/ - dockerized, it has a section on kubernetes deployments, which i find weird, but I guess could make sense for companies

https://mailinabox.email/ - no docker, no multiple domains, roundcube, nextcloud for groupware. Main disadvantage or advantage, depending on your perspective is that you need a mailinabox server per domain.

And then this is the more hands on version, which I guess would be sovereign as ansible deployment.

IMHO sovereign puts too many attack vectors on a single machine.

I wanted to ditch Chrome, so I tried Firefox on macOS and it took 3-5 seconds to load most sites while they load in 0.5-1.0 seconds in Chrome. I tried uninstalling (including deleting all profile data) and re-installing to see if that helped. This is as far as I got in trying to install uBlock Origin: https://gyazo.com/5850d1b0955c42b857de4ab302c8149b Tried viewing source, but that page just came out blank too.

> Firefox 62 today, and it's quite noticeably slower than Chrome. Here's a couple GIFs from Gmail to show what I mean

If you use any Google service in Firefox, it's slowed down by Google on purpose, so you don't switch. I'd use a 3rd party email client or switch off Gmail, otherwise I just let Google know their sleazy tactics work.

Other than that, I notice Firefox having some performance issues specifically on macOS. I'm using it as my primary browser on Linux and since v57 it has been super fast.
I wanted to create a group calendar between myself and my wife. We both use FastMail. Gave up after fighting for a day with weird errors.

FastMail sent me an email that said our calendars are not in sync anymore.. way too often.
Linux – The beginning of the end?
Does Fastmail provide any kind of "bundling" or "priority inbox" features?

Since using Inbox on Android, I can't imagine going back to being notified about every single email. Automatic bundling of messages and the custom rules that you can then set on those bundles is a killer feature. If nobody comes along with a decent alternative before Inbox is shutdown then I don't know what I'll do!

> The author comes out of this seeming slightly deranged.

That you think so makes me think you seem "slight" deranged by Apples guideline process. That's some next level stupidity where that corporate line of "hey, we have emulators for it, which are intended for you to test, but you cannot mention this in an update" makes actually sense to someone.
I'd be interested to know if there's any evidence that the Big Few mail providers, GMail or Outlook for example, penalise in the spam calculation emails coming from outside their ecosystem. I get a lot of report from people saying that emails from me are ending up in their spam bins, but I can find no reason for it, so the rumour is very seductive.

If so, having lots of people set up a "Mail Server in a Box" would be, in the longer run, a really good thing.
Track Order
It's expensive if you think of what it costs to keep a mail server online. They have a price that clearly shows to me that they have no competition.
There's a bunch of us at CalConnect in Karlsruhe right now working on improving calendar standards :)
I saw this recently but don’t recall the context.
Google actively hamper their services on Firefox. Gmail, YouTube, GoogleDocs, they all run worse.
Try an independant site, you'll find much better results. Additionally, Firefox handles having a lot of concurrent tabs way way better than Chrome, so if you do that often you'll definitely notice the speed increase there.
In my experience focusing on the tools usually ends up failing projects or going over-budget. e.g "we don't have a product yet, but look at all these shiny cucumber tests!". I think a good start is to have someone who is very user focused in the team.
> "Was Darwin/Einstein wrong?"

Isn't Kuhn rather about false/wrong not being applicable when comparing paradigms, and the controversy about Morris taking this a bit too general?

Edit: On a semiotic level, we may describe Kuhn's approach as being about homonymous signifiers, which belong to different world-views or frameworks, by which they are also defined, while Kripke refers to the special case of names, which serve as an identifier pointing to an atomic entity, which may be extended or even merge with another one, but essentially remains this particular object, which is in turn generalized by Morris to apply to all classes and types of signified objects (rather reminding of the concept of the "referred" than of the more modern concept of cultural entities). Notably, 'truth' is in the first case more an effect of structure and social consensus, in the latter case a matter of discernible properties which may be assessed as facts.
But at the same time, there are some aspects of fairness that do appear to be innate - as in, they're observed in very small children regardless of the culture they're from, in experiments where they're asked to share (or not share) something that they have, or assess how someone else shared theirs. Extreme "wealth inequality" - as defined, say, through the amount of candy each child has - is universally seen as unfair, for example, although you also have to account for parochial altruism. Bonobos also demonstrate similar attitudes.

So it appears that our evolution as social species has set some hard boundaries. Abstract ideologies can go beyond them, of course, but their real-world success seems to correlate to some extent with how much they do or not - I would argue that ancap definition of "fair" is so unpopular precisely because it's so out-of-bounds wrt our biology.
Why you should(n’t) get cyber insurance
Even as a middle school student I was amazed how “clean” they made the war seem. It was clear that the military had full control over the flow of information.
Unless you never use your web browser to visit any website ever, I just don't see what the issue is here. The information they're gathering is outrageously trivial and thoroughly anonymised.

This whole discussion shows an absurd lack of perspective by some people, particularly in the light of what Chrome does... or what Android does... or what LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE TCP CONNECTION TO LITERALLY ANYTHING ELSE ON THE INTERNET does...
Is there an open source email client which supports a conversation view similar to Gmail's? I find that to be an amazingly useful feature.

The other thing Gmail does which has a lot of potential is message labeling (e.g., newsletters automatically go into a separate tab/folder).
Email is a highly competitive market with a low barrier to entry and thousands of companies offering similar services. It is nothing like hardware, so your comparison is bizarre.

By the way, I was asking for the point of view of an expert. If you are not an expert on email services, then I have no interest in hearing you speak condescendingly to me.
To reach close to the speed of light (~0.9c?) it'll take about 1 year before turning off the engine, and then another year of deceleration if you're planning to do anything else besides travel around at relativistic speeds.

Going to Mars using antimatter with the same 1g acceleration the entire time (reversing half way) will take a few weeks and require a small fraction of a gram of antimatter.

Ignoring the significant engineering problems like heat disappation, storage if it's not used instantly, you could get two years worth of thrust from antimatter measured in grams and cross the galaxy in just over a decade, in Earth time the trip would be >100,000 years.
Google uses non-standard extensions that only Chrome supports for Gmail and Youtube.

For neutral email apps, Firefox runs perfectly fine. For Gmail, it will be slightly slower than Chrome.
Linux Development Revolt Against CoC
+1 for Runbox. Good prices, multiple custom domains possible, and an option to configure separate passwords per device/app.
There has been a rather disturbing post-2000 neo-puritan thing going on for a while now, shaming people for purely personal choices, such as eating meat, smoking, drinking alcohol, enjoying cannabis in various forms, and generally acting in ways that are "impure".

Sure, banning smoking in restaurants makes sense, as it actively ruins the experience for other people. But this whole vegan teetotaler thing is getting extremely aggravating.

Shaming people for enjoying alcohol responsibly is just as bad as shaming people for choosing to not drink. Both groups of shamers need to cut it the hell out.
Does anyone know about managed (free or paid) email servers without any web client? Only with IMAP, POP3, etc activated and storage space.
I get it everytime I log into Google through a VPN.
I love the anti-fingerprinting features and I just hope more people actively use them.
I'd argue that human interaction occurs far more frequently than software updates.
If we'd ban targeted advertising, this would take away the perverse incentives, and we could help transform Google and other companies into something better. I'd say let's start with a petition.

It does, if you enable it again (or reinstall it from the Safari Extensions directory). However, I get the feeling it will only last for this version, since they seem to be closing down on JavaScript extensions in general.
Is $4.75B a fair price for Adobe to pay for Marketo?
Basically all the results these days are just from news articles on other sites.
This is a clear case of a price being judged differently depending on where you live. 25$ is luxurious expensive meal out for me or 5-7 fast food meals.
It is absolutely intentional.

Their goal is not to make the web useful for you, it's to make the web useful for themselves by manipulating what information you're exposed to.

It is the mind-control wet dream. Google is guiding people to ideas that they like and preventing people from being exposed to those they don't. If you think that the Gun Rights thing is some kind of freak accident, consider that they also started outright censoring guns in the shopping page, with hilarious side effects like also censoring water guns.

When talking about a multinational conglomerate that hires the world's best engineers, do not ever mistake malice for incompetence.

are you talking about device manufacturers or component manufacturers? for the latter, look at what happened to imagination when apple dropped them and then tell me with a straight face that wasn't bullying.
Sorry, could you explain some more about this for people with less of a mathematical background? (I have an undergraduate degree in physics, am familiar with the Riemann zeta function, but do not see anything obviously wrong with the paper).
Chrome was always spying and collecting data from users since the very first day, every developer knew it that's why most of hackers and devs switched to Chromium. The open source edition which you can patch and modify to completely disable any communication with Google servers. Last I checked on GitHub there were tons of patches. Just switch to Chromium and problem is solved. Chrome is garbage.
Sure, he should leave the customer care team alone and speak with the higher ups!

How does one do that, exactly?

I think his particular battle with Apple is not the most worth, and it's not unreasonable of them to prevent you from claiming compatibility with unreleased phones, but please let's not forget we're talking about a company that does not even have a public bug tracker, and will close your tickets as duplicates without you being able to read or be notified about the other supposed ticket your is a duplicate of.

It's a totally opaque company that gives developers no resort to fix their issues. You can only talk with the lowest level support and you can only take it out on them (which you should do politely, of course)
I don't know if fast mail provides it out of the box but I have started to test out spark: https://sparkmailapp.com/ as a replacement for Inbox. While it is a bit from as good as Inbox it can get the job done, and has bundling.

I simply set it up to archive when swiping (which is what Inbox seems to be doing). However, it's notifications are far from as good and you can't archive straight from the notification, which, to me, is a let down.

Furthermore, on iPhone 8 there is an actual loading screen when opening the app. Like, why? Everything is already stored in the phone and it should just look for new mail in the background?

So far from perfect, but what can one do when Google is killing stuff off.

One issue though: you have to be in the apple ecosystem as they do not support, anything but iOS/Mac OS.

Note: I'm not associated with spark in any way.
I might be wrong, but I also think it is expensive. When I can have a 5 family plan from office365, including, word, excel, powerpoint, outlook, etc, with 1TB per account, 60 minutes of skype calls per account, etc, for 10 per month, 25 per month (for 5 people) only for email seems too expensive to me. The only thing lacking is custom email address.
It does seem expensive when you've been exposed to free (or heavily discounted) prices your whole life. This is because the others still charge this much, except the difference in revenue is made up by selling your data and pushing adverts (rather than charging you extra). Suddenly the extra $30-$40 per year doesn't seem so expensive any more.

People with a learning disability will die 15 to 20 years earlier than the rest of the population. These deaths are mostly preventable, and are often the result of poor quality care.

In England, where people with LD are sometimes subjected to intense deprivation of liberty in the name of care it is an injustice that they are killed by that care.

I saw that too, but they add the following on their FAQ page

`If you use Gandi’s DNS however, you are free to add the TXT zone file record needed to add the necessary “_domainkey” TXT entry for your domain. You would then need to see with your outgoing email provider concerning the configuration of their mail server for the service.`

Or switch to another browser such as FF where you have to worry less about the problem in the first place and are guaranteed to get updates.
This is a contentless argument, which I am tired of seeing parroted. I do business with hundreds of entities that do not use Google infrastructure. I have thousands of contacts whose email headers indicate usage of Exchange servers.

It's not about your twelve friends who use GMail, or even your hundred GitHub collaborators who use GMail. It's about the entire rest of the Internet, which is still there, living happily outside your bubble.

What do you make of corporations subsidizing seemingly pure academic research, then? Take the aforementioned Haskell, for example - you speak of "massive academic investment", but Simon Peyton Jones is still a Microsoft [Research] employee, and Simon Marlow is a Facebook employee (and former MSR as well)! And yes, you don't see Microsoft use Haskell in its products - but the ongoing funding clearly indicates that there's substantial perceived value in that investment. Given the amount of time this has been going on, surely that's more than can be explained away by "hype"?

What about non-Google sites? I wouldn't be surprised if Google somehow deliberately made Gmail's interface slower for non-Chrome (or optimized Chrome for Gmail, whatever), similar to what they do with YouTube.
No. It's excluded by default, and only blocked if the user manually enables Do Not Track in the Preferences section.

Neither Tavis Ormandy nor Google have a good track record when it comes to pragmatic security. Google's business model is incompatible with proper security. Chances are that you know Tavis from him being arrogant on project zero so everyone who runs old versions of something, like all the millions of insecure android handsets, can get owned by script kiddies. People have been listing alternatives, but the whole point of giving something like gmail away for free is so there won't be any real alternatives. It isn't like it is going to make a difference either way, since Google's position in the market mean most people won't switch.
Yeah, but on the other hand it's also a feature of Gmail. So it's not strictly worse.

Python in definitely one of the easier languages to learn if you have some basic programming experience. You will definitely be fine with your background.

I never learned/used Java. I only had some C and Matlab/Octave experience, I was able to pick up Python OK. I am no expert by any means but can do the basics and stuff. I mainly use it for data analysis.

Meritocracy or Bias?
Does anyone know a (preferably self-hosted, but can be commercial) mail client that is as as good Gmail for power users? I always found it rather straightforward have a custom domain and even operate my own mail server, but haven't been able to do the same for the client.

The features most important to me are:

- Gmails speed and accuracy in search, especially on large mailboxes (100k+ emails) - this one is usually the deal breaker

- easy & powerful automatic filter rules

- web client

- calendar integration (optional)

- app for easy access to emails and search on mobile (optional)
