If anyone is interested in CBS All Access, you can also buy it for the same price via Amazon Digital as an "Add-On Channel."

In essence you get CBS All Access's content but via the Amazon Digital Web-Site/Apps, it is a massive improvement in reliability and performance. CBS's actual streaming player and web-site is a hot mess.

The "Centralized to Decentralized Recursion" is a bit like Moore's Law.

It works for all aspects the digital ecosystem. Clients, Data, Bandwidth, Storage, etc.

Centralized -> decentralized -> centralized -> decentralized -> centralized -> decentralized -> centralized -> decentralized -> etc.
This seems like a definite plus for all involved.

The Board and Chair set the overall strategy, while the CEO executes. In the next few years, the strategy is already clear -- execute on the Model 3, Model S & Roadster upgrades, Tucks, and solar products. The board should just be a background process for a while, while the pressure is on the CEO. By the time he gets his 'Chairman License' back, it may be time to update strategy.

Meanwhile, the SEC notches a "win", the investors can go back to their regularly scheduled short-long bickering, and Elon can focus more on delivering.
That's not the best comparison, HipChat is an ant compared to JIRA, and Atlassian gave up on HipChat only a few years after acquiring it.
It's all relative. I don't own a single flashlight that can be set dimmer (or anywhere close to as dim) as my iPhone XS Max is at minimum brightness on a white page. If the XS Max is showing mostly-dark content, the amount of light emitted is really tiny at minimum brightness because of that OLED display.

On the various Android devices I've owned, I've used a useful app called Screen Filter that adds a translucent layer on top of all apps to dim the screen beyond the artificial manufacturer-imposed minimum brightness, which worked especially well on OLED Android phones, but also LCDs worked fine too.
I would say users don’t have a choice. Knowing you can install a blocker as well as how to go about it is a high hurdle.

Just like installing a pop-up blocker in the early 2000s.

So they put up with it. Because it’s the only way to read the article they want on the local TV news site. And they are more about the news about their kid’s school than the weather guy pop-up.

Right, so that's one of the reasons why Solid is built on top of Linked Data and RDF, we need the power of these technologies to support those advanced use cases.

The Web Access Control spec is here: https://github.com/solid/web-access-control-spec . In principle, we could support really granular data ACLs based on that spec, the ACL applies to a URL, and you can give any datapoint a URL, so problem solved. In practice, it may become a bit cumbersome, I suppose it remains to be seen how you'd do it in practice, but I think we have a really good start there, there's lots of stuff that can be realized now.

There's a wealth of academic research that applies to these problems, the problem of the Semantic Web community has been that it has been strong on the academic stuff, but not very focused on truly useful stuff that can be done right now (to quote AaronSw). That's one of the things that Inrupt sets out to change. But the good thing is that we're not setting out to solve really hard problems in the dark, since we have that academic research, we know pretty well what's hard and what should be within reach.

Although I see the reasoning, I'm still not comfortable with the proof. It sounds to me like "plug something in to the Zeta function, observe that it isn't a nontrivial zero, conclude that there are no nontrivial zeros." Even if it seems completely intuitve to me I still wouldn't consider it proven.
None of the science disciplines on Earth use imperial, and besides some manufacturing in the US or companies forced to use those products virtually no engineering disciplines use it either.

> The SEC offered a deal that did not include Musk being banned. If they wanted him banned, why would they have offered such a deal?

Because the SEC, like most other litigants, is willing to accept less than its ideal solution for a certain, cheap, immediate, and final resolution; what you seek going to court is everything you would ever want, what you ask for in a settlement is may be more than the minimum you will accept (if you want negotiating room, OTOH, you may want to do a best offer to maximize the chance of immediate acceptance and just move on to litigation if that fails) but will always be less than everything you would want, unless your case is so strong that you view settlement as basically a gift of swift resolution of a foregone conclusion to the other side, which is rare.

> The other big factor is that removing Musk as CEO would have caused more harm to Tesla shareholders than Musk’s tweets did.

Tesla shareholders as a class aren't the harmed party the SEC seeks to address a harm to, they are the principal who failed to adequately supervise their agent who is the bad actor in this case, which is why Tesla as well as Musk is, even with the settlement, paying a fine.
> The SEC treats his account as a corporate mouthpiece

Because Tesla told everyone to treat his account as a corporate mouthpiece:

https://www.cnbc.com/2018/08/08/reuters-america-update-7-u-s...

"Tesla alerted investors in a 2013 SEC filing that they should follow Musk's Twitter feed for "additional information" about the company."
Even if you pulled in angular or react it's still really hard to get something like this going. Especially for novices, these frameworks suffer from inversion of control and are pretty weird way to program. Once you get it it's pretty powerful tho.

The most expensive joint in history. Literally one tweet while (I'm guessing) he was baked cost $40MM, his chairmanship and two new board seats.

From the SEC complaint: "...he rounded the price up to $420 because he had recently learned about the number’s significance

The two of them were probably giggling their asses off as he posted it.

The title should technically be "World's Oldest Currently-Alive Torrent Still Alive After 15 Years". The first part is pretty much a tautology. This doesn't mean that the first torrent created happens to still be seeded.
I have never used a Mac for personal use, so I can't compare.

It does have per-account adjustable syncing periods, and you can click a big ol' button to refresh immediately.

I'm pretty sure they'd have had to backdate that, since git didn't exist until 2005. :-)

Or a CVS importer applied the appropriate date, perhaps.
I would have thought the exact opposite. Wouldn't the current elite rather believe that they are on top because they worked hard and earned their place? That way they can look down on the rest in good conscience while gutting welfare systems that only benefit those who "didn't" earn their own way.
I remember hearing of a purported proof of the Riemann Hypothesis by George Spencer Brown: http://empslocal.ex.ac.uk/people/staff/mrwatkin//zeta/GSB-RH...

Anyone with a little more in-depth knowledge able to comment on this supposed proof?
That’s just a symptom.
The actual problem is that it’s hard(er) to make money off bit torrent, and possibly even p2p in general.

If there was a financial incentive every browser would have been capable of downloading files off BT as seamlessly as off HTTP.
They can. Or could. The world chose to ignore the header.
Slack pretty much killed hipchat and drove directly into enterprises - which should have been atlassian sales. Once you have your tentacles in enterprise (and slack are almost there), it’s very easy to sell huge contracts of pretty average software. JIRA is great, but it’s not that complex, and it would not take much to start chipping it away
Light from lasers is also phase coherent. This is in sharp contrast to LED, incandescent etc.

In a previous life, I spent a lot of time backpacking, and half-jokingly made a point of stopping to eat/drink before bigger climbs. More fuel in the furnace, and less to haul up in the pack.

In that context, the cheese at the top of the hill really does have more calories or value or something along those lines.

Ather is cool-looking but also seems to be shipping in one city, if that; I'd like to see a bit more scale first. With scooters, I also think removable batteries are the way to go: that makes them harder to steal, in at least one dimension, and easier to recharge for apartment-dwellers.
Plenty of proprietary software has these restrictions, Datomic, MS SQL Server, etc. I suppose you could make a case that most published benchmarks will be flawed or inaccurate, but it's still wrong to do.

The psychodrama Musk causes is far more interesting than anything Musk does. The guy is just a widget maker but his name is enough to summon outraged hordes all desperate for his failure. This kind of naked ressentiment is something that, until recently, you didn't see in the West. The other side of structural inequality is probably this basic need to see the wealthy and powerful suffer, particularly those who have the pretense to declare themselves do gooders.

> Musk is agreeing to step down as chairman of the board (while staying CEO) and Tesla is appointing two new independent directors. It's a significant curtailing of his power over Tesla. How was the coverage overplayed?

The obsession with Musk is way overplayed at this point. The idea that people care about Tesla at all is laughable. At this point it's all about the desire to see their betters brought low.
> In a company like Tesla, with such a strong CEO, the Chairman would be a symbolic role.

In a company like Tesla, that has been sanctioned by the SEC for failing to adequately control the public actions of the still-current CEO, it's unlikely that the Chairman would be a symbolic role.
> There are clear-cut numbers here—Apple Music’s streams tap out around 256 kbps, whereas Spotify and Tidal both stream “hi-fi” audio at 320 kbps—but you can also just listen to it.

As I understand it, Apple’s 256 kbps AAC is probably higher quality than Spotify’s 320 kbps OGG. And most of us probably lack the audio equipment (DAC of sufficient quality) and auditory sensitivity to hear the difference between either Spotify’s or Apple’s lossy compressed audio and Tidal’s lossless FLAC. But it still grates on me that it’s so hard to buy access to a service that’ll steam CD-quality audio to me when I can get HD Bluray quality video streamed at me.

But the sins that I cannot forgive music streaming:

- Most don’t allow me to augment their catalog with stuff I own, and stream it back to me via a unified interface.

- Most don’t support gapless playback (no, crossfade very much does not count).

- Most don’t let me browse by genre according to any categorization remotely half as good as any small-town CD shop in the 90s

- Most will quietly remove albums, artists, and (most maddeningly) tracks from albums according to the whims of some capricious and malevolent spirit.

- Most have a UI on streaming devices that continually screams, “LOOK AT YOUR TV!” Rather than unobtrusively showing the track title or offering a “I just want to listen to music without distractions.”
Blizzard torrents WoW updates. They are reliable because Blizzard can just serve downloads like normal as if they just happened to be over the BitTorrent protocol, and clients can join up and help out when they're able. The company can encrypt the payload to maintain a semblance of licensing and run the biggest seeders themselves.
0% chance he recently learned about the significance of 420. Maybe he did use this number because of it, but the assertion that he was high and that this happened because he was high is just speculative.
Loved a BeOS when it came out but is not the whole concept outdated now? C++ all over the place seems like a bad idea for enabling the usage of other languages as C++ is terrible at interoping with anything. Multi threading all over the place BeOS style does not seem like way concurrency is done today with higher order APIs.
Yea, we reconnected with a half-brother on our Dad's side. Jeezum. It's just so clear, it's weird.

I can't actively say too much about the security of Protonmail.

However, I do know a lot of people that know the founder (Andy Yen) socially and they all uniformly think he's a scumbag. (Doing things like going to car shows with a junker saying that his nice <insert car here> is in the shop, other generally sketchy/manipulative actions.)

Overall, I'd say Protonmail is good at being a hype machine and while there may be some technical correctness in what they're doing, it's not a business you'd want to rely on.

Consider a city where the murder rate is half of the country wide one, it would be a little unusual to claim it has a institutionalized murder problem based on those numbers.

Maybe it has one (e.g. particularly bad neighborhoods) but it would be a weird conclusion from just the number

> people aren’t looking to X- they’re bored

Wow the way you put this brings so much into focus. All of these apps and websites with awful ux where you can't find anything because you're drowning in a sea of content and shit is constantly flashing in your face... that is the point. People actually want that, for no other reason than its entertainment and it distracts them from their boredom. They're not actually looking for news, or videos, or pictures, or to learn or anything, they're looking for entertainment. And it's not the content that is entraining them -- the content is just an excuse -- it's the app itself that's entertaining them.

News, social media, video sites, photo sites, they're not content platforms at all, they're just a new type of game. That also explains why I can't comprehend the behavior of these sites, because I'm coming to the site to do something completely different from what it was designed to do.

Yet both Microsoft and Blizzard have decided P2P file distribution is just fine and dandy to use for their customers. It seems the only downsides are a slight complexity increase to handle torrent downloads for files that most of your customers need, with the upside that those same clients get their files faster thanks to the additional bandwidth gained using P2P tech like BitTorrent.

On the reliability side, you can easily include an HTTP web seed, though as long as the company offers the torrent on their fileserver, there isn't much benefit for doing that.

This thread is about CBS. Are you saying television is all user-generated content?
I agree with your comments about the naked interest in seeing him fail, but disagree with the cause. I think the people who want him to fail are more linked to supporting the status quo, in car companies, gas production, hating the idea of evs helping to reduce greenhouse gasses, stock shorters of Tesla, who are often some of those things. My dad fits in this camp. I haven't come across this from people who are jealous of rich people or concerned about income inequality. I see these rabid anti Tesla people are mostly rich, conservatives.
It's definitely harder in the general case to run into these bugs, but the real trick, in my opinion, is building APIs where it's impossible.

The 'escape hatch' here is the .by_ref() but you could, if it's critical, write wrappers that don't provide those escape hatches.

If it were critical that the reuse never happened you can make it impossible, which is really cool. But, by default, for most APIs, it's just generally more difficult to mess up.

There are a bunch of articles on session types out there, where you represent each state in a state machine as a separate type, with transition methods that consume the previous state. If the correctness touted in this article sounds appealing, I highly recommend reading about session types.

If, as the author claims, the economists all knew the efficient market hypothesis is mistaken, then why didn't they inform the public during the bubble, and get it to pressure the politicans to regulate the financial markets?

Also, whether or not the economists believed in the efficient market hypothesis at the time, the conservatives and libertarians sure did, and they continue to do so.
