What I find most interesting is the very clear but often ignored 'Cloaking Guidelines' by google:

"Cloaking refers to the practice of presenting different content or URLs to human users and search engines. Cloaking is considered a violation of Google’s Webmaster Guidelines because it provides our users with different results than they expected.

Some examples of cloaking include:

...

- Inserting text or keywords into a page only when the User-agent requesting the page is a search engine, not a human visitor

" [0]

Google is happily showing LinkedIn, FB, pinterest and news sites content. But when I, Joe User, go to the page, I see nothing but some login/register/pay now form. How is this not a violation of the cloaking guidelines? Clearly google is getting different content than what I am!

(Presumably this is how article's extension works... by masquerading as GoogleBot -- again proving that these sites are serving up different content)

Link to the survey experiment in case you are curious to take it:

http://moralmachine.mit.edu

I would love to read some comments on the scientific validity of the findings. I tried to answer the survey by applying road law blindly to each situation. Although the survey results did catch that I gave the highest value to rules following, it also suggested I attributed higher value to athletic people and to a higher perceived social value...leading me to speculate: does this experiment really measure what it thinks it does?
Firefox has the option to set default colours based on your theme, so mine are set to dark colours.

To be sure, I'm not saying cars weren't an improvement over horses (history proves they obviously were), I'm just saying that after a century of car culture we're probably somewhat inured to and/or have engineered around the negatives of car ownership, so they've become invisible to us. Now it just seems like a near-perfect drop-in replacement, which I guarantee it wasn't at the time.

That said, I'm unconvinced that smell and mess are as compelling a selling-point as all that. Societally they're very important, but not obviously more than non-fuel-burning vehicles today. In practice, when it comes to making a purchase, there are often much more pressing concerns than an environmental issue over which you individually have little influence.
I've had that installed for about a week now and the counter is still stuck at zero...
Here in Finland, this does happen, yes. But the larger problem is "gray money"; everyone goes to the same business parties and sauna retreats (expenses paid of course), is friends with everyone.

more recently there's the novel shortcut of the business people themselves just running for office. Our current PM has a long list of business interests, including lobbying the Modi government on behalf of a startup he co-owns to sell them a chemical plant. His family also has holdings in a mining company that has received considerable amounts of government money, a fact he actually tried to cover up with in the Finnish state media Yle.

So painting this as "why is it business' fault what government does!" is more than a little misleading. Government doing exactly what business wants is the whole problem.
I rather the device is secure and you protect your device better, than to have a security hole so that your can backup your device after being careless.
Why would it be unethical to get a job trying to break the security you previously helped implement? Security is not accomplished via obscurity so it's not like there's a trade secret issue here.

Really the only problem I can think of is if you put backdoors or weaknesses into the system with the expectation of being hired later to defeat the same system. But the problem there is the fact that you deliberately crippled the system you were building and not the fact that you were hired later to defeat it.

"But Western students who sign up for a class in it soon discover that nobody speaks this “standard” as a native tongue; many Arabs hardly speak it at all. "

This is not completely true! I'm a native Arabic speaker and MSA is the official language of newspapers, news segments, and legal documents, governments speeches even wedding invitations and not to forget the Quran and the Arabic bible. So it's spoken and written widely but people tend not to use it that often because it's easier to use shorter words that most of the time sum longer sentences.

The principal mistake of CSS IMHO is that it invented new syntax for what should've gone into HTML attributes (like SGML LINK and FOSI did). This then led to inconsistent ways of manipulating display properties (CSSOM etc.) and also to the identity crisis of HTML (postulating "semantic" HtML when markup is as syntactic as it gets).

> It's very convoluted and it takes many more words to describe things accurately than latin and/or germanic languages

I definitely disagree on this. Sure, for some concepts, that might be true, but Arabic vocabulary and verbs are so diverse that there are many things that are much easier to say in Arabic.

Combined with the fact that written words are much shorter, you can easily see why Arabic Twitter is thriving so well. Before the tweet limit was raised, Arabic tweets could hold about the equivalent of a paragraph of information. Now that it's been increased they're essentially blog posts.
Cars have also gotten cheaper and better;

Not by much. Sure a modern car is faster, more efficient and more reliable than a Model T, but at the end of the day it still does exactly the same thing in exactly the same way. Also $20k is roughly what you pay for a new entry level Ford today so it's not like prices have come down dramatically.

R and JavaScript: Execution, Libraries, Integration
I'm native arabic speaker too, and can tell you that your statement is far from the truth. Arabic is far more simple language with fewer exceptions than english or french (I love/speak french :D).

There are only 3 tenses:
Also it's derivational language which mean once you learn about a verb you actually learn about the whole lexical family of the verb.

In english for example you have : Book, Author, Library
In Arabic (kitaab, kaatib, maktaba) which is the same root (k,t,b) and with simple rules you can discover all those words or even invent them if not used previously
The big problem of arabic as language is arabic societies/people/... but the language itself is a gem.

I set dark mode in macOS to have the UI fade into the background and reveal the content; I don't want or expect that websites will present white text on a dark background too. That's fine for coding but can be less readable for long form articles depending on the ambient lighting.

I do wonder when/if companies will move wholesale to avoiding security mechanisms that rely on the secrecy of particular pieces of static information (e.g. passport numbers, Social Security Numbers (In the US)) etc.

The number of breaches of personal data now mean that in many/most cases an assumption that only a person knows something about them is extremely unlikely to hold across a large userbase.

Of course you then fall back to "how do you validate that someone is who they say they are" and probably things like biometrics, and/or other forms of 2FA will need to feature.

1) False

> That car massively outperformed its competition

Nope. Initially cars couldn't even match horses in speed. Although speed did rapidly become the reason to get a car, but initially this wasn't the case.

> It didn’t buck you off or startle, didn’t get sick and die, didn’t shit all over the roads

Yes it did. Early cars ... there were no more than a few dozen in a city, yet it was a daily occurrence that one blew up. Early gasoline engines ...

Second: the brakes.

Third: incomplete burning of fuel. It was constantly leaking oil/gas everywhere.

And all that is assuming you got them started. Even movies from 1920/1930 are full of scenes were cars don't start. That was after decades of fixing issues. Imagine what the first ones were like.

> It was able to go faster, longer, and more comfortably than a horse

Nope, nope, and nope.

Carriage suspensions were far superior to car suspensions for several decades. Cars were big bikes with an engine. More comfortable than a horse on bad dirt roads ? I doubt it very much.

Blog: How to lead a successful digital team
It was an easy decision, no one was doing any real use with the app. Money was running out and so I tried to contact a couple of portuguese tile brands to sell a more specialized version of it. Nothing good came out of it. We don't have enough market for specialized/customized tiles/ceramics to move the industry players into it. Also the construction world is crippled by a different logic and mechanics. Free market ? yeah right... :/

If they made phones would they still be "real" OS vendors, or just more Apple?

It's not that we lack OS vendors. There's no standard mobile platform like the PC has been for general purpose computing. No hardware vendors are shipping handsets conforming to an open standard supplying open NDA-free specs and/or drivers for OS vendors to target.

We have a number of OS vendors who would almost certainly support such hardware if it was being produced, were compelling, and affordable.

If you do not stand with all workers, you will be divided, and fall. That's what solidarity means.

The alternative is we end up like America, and as much as some blinkered people in tech and business seem to want that for their own greedy purposes, a good look at the news should tell you why that's not a road we should want to go down.

The fundamental problem is that these filter lists are maintained by random volunteers, who everyone just assumes are trustworthy.

The browser makers avoid the issues by having ad-blockers be third-party extensions. The extension makers don't make the filter lists either, they just import from EasyList and similar. It's surprising there arent't more cases of corruption and broken trust.

I wish I could get ad-blocking some somebody I can trust. Unfortunately the only way to turn ad-blocking into a business is to charge advertisers to un-block them. That defeats the whole purpose of ad blocking, and is basically blackmail.

I'm also a native arabic speaker. I also speak french and English fluently. What you say is utterly false. I think that trying to evaluate a language based on it being similar to western languages simplicity for it to be good/bad is plain nonsense. Arabic having many variant local dialects is not an awful thing but a richness. I will not fall into the trap of saying such language is better or worse. What I can say is that Arabic as a language is complexe and that is why it is a very much powerful language to express ideas an emotions then other languages I know.

Almost: Helvetica is a typeface family, Helvetica Bold Italic is a typeface, Helvetica Bold Italic 10pt is a font (or rather, the font is a case full of bits of metal with Helvetica Bold Italic 10pt)
The translation is Book, Author, Library; (kitaab, kaatib, maktaba); respectively.
You might think that but I decided to major in it in college and it led to many crazy life choices I sometimes regret, but I go to the Arab world often as a result of them.

I'll never regret what Arabic has taught me directly and indirectly about the world.

I have seen a lot of the contrast of the myopic sheltered culture of middle class Northeast US I grew up in. And I learned Europeans borrowed and saved a lot of important knowledge for safe keeping with the Arabs in Arabic. I see certain artistic themes go so far back even beyond classical Arab history and they give evidence of that. Ditto for math and science.
