The question is, what do those limits on speech really add?

For example, Germany has extremely stringent limits on hate speech. In fact, it goes beyond that, and gives courts the authority to outright ban political parties, and even informal associations, that promote certain political ideas (e.g. any form of government that is not a democracy), even if such promotion doesn't involve hate speech per se: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streitbare_Demokratie. They have a robust enforcement regimen, too.

And? They still have neo-Nazis marching in the streets (and, I must add, in far greater numbers than anything that happened in US to date). And they have AfD, which continues to grow in popular support, and to gain seats on both federal and regional level.

I would argue that in that regard, Europe and US inadvertently did a useful experiment: one side went all-in for free speech, another side decided to enshrine "intolerance of intolerance" in law. Looking at Europe today, I would dare say that the result of that experiment is that political censorship is a failure. It's not that you can't do it - clearly, there are many countries that do it quite successfully, even today. The problem is, all those countries are very heavy-handed about it - they don't wince at punishing people for being suspected subversives, for example. And so we call those countries dictatorships and tyrannies. But the amount of censorship that Europe decided it can afford while still retaining free society is fairly trivial to work around, and therefore ineffective. It's basically just security theater. It lets politicians point at all those laws and say, "See, we did something about the neo-Nazis! You're safe!" to their voters, even as said neo-Nazis openly march in the streets.

The Chromecast model is intentionally designed so that anyone on your local network can play anything they want on your Chromecast, including full blast volume porn. Considering that, how is being able to reboot your Chromecast any worse?

The comparison to your phone doesn't hold. For one, your phone connects to all sorts of networks, whereas these devices are on local home network only. Second, Chromecasts are inherently shared and communal devices, whereas phones are personal.
Two hours a week of coaching is better than none. Unstructured play is great, but it's no substitute for targeting coaching when it comes to developing useful skills.
>although I'm not sure why they have there own OS.

I think this makes sense. Their core bussiness is producing an integrated Linux hardware/software package. When a compatability issue comes up, they probably don't want to have to wait on a third party to resolve it; especially when they can still leverage most of the work that said third party does (and; I presume, contribute back their work).

That's a great technique that I prefer - full page reload for links that have large screen changes i.e. page navigation - spa for page-specific interactivity i.e. filters, edits, updates

Not having a client-side router strips out so much spa complexity.

maybe for apps where you really need persistent state i will use a router/full-spa, but a lot of apps don't need full persistent state across all page navigations.
It's still censorship, by definition. You have just decided that it's worth it, but let's be clear about what it is.

Funny thing is, for all your hate speech laws, far right parties don't seem to be much frustrated by them, and are quite successful at competing for votes lately. All they have to do is wink and nudge without spelling things out bluntly - everybody still knows what they mean and what they stand for.

Personally, I hate the bucket-list-as-a-checklist idea, and have found the idea of visiting places and seeing things to feel pretty hollow to me, regardless of whether the sites are well known or not. Except for beautiful parts of nature and architectural beauty, visiting places does little for my soul.

I find cultural, people-oriented tourism, though, to be lifegiving for me. This is a bit surprising to me, given that I'm a kind of person that's lesser suited to it, as someone who tends toward shyness and also happens to be a picky eater (which is not great for sharing and enjoying meals in foreign countries). But on those times where I've been able to connect on a deeper level with locals, I've felt very fulfilled in my tourism experience. Having friends who invite me to visit the place they're now living in has been one gateway for me to be able to pursue this kind of cultural tourism (though I realize not every would-be tourist has personal networks that would provide this kind of opportunity.) Given our common language and culture and their local connections, these friends can help me enjoy their new home on a much deeper level much sooner than if I just went to that place by myself.

I realize that my tourism preference is personal, and that various other forms of tourism are perfectly valid and more enjoyable to others. However, if I were to generalize, I'd say that tourism that values, respects, and enjoys the places, people, and cultures involved for their own sake is commendable, while tourism that simply uses such places and people for narcissistic motives should be questioned. (These narcissistic motives typically revolve around showing others how much richer, more beautiful, more refined, classier, more knowledgeable, worthier, and ultimately better you are than them.) Loving a place, people, or culture might even involve leaving it alone, and enjoying them vicariously through other's tales, photos, and videos.

Speaking of motives, and on a somewhat-related note, you might enjoy this:

I am deeply disturbed by what we are seeing in China. The Great Firewall, massive concentration camps in Xinjiang, a new "social credit" system - I think the dystopia of 1984 is becoming a reality. I am afraid that as a society we have the complacency that the "good guys" - democracy, human rights, freedom - will always win. Stalinism and facism eventually fell, but the Communist Party of China is still going strong, and seems to be more than able to extend its grip to the 21st century.

Interesting, although I can't say I care much about the fate of these organizations that accepted money from the DoD.

> ... there are many nations that are subjectively better places to live than the U.S., whose citizens have ceded more of their freedom of speech ... it's worked out pretty well so far.

As someone not in the US, I agree there are many places that are subjectively "better", but this is /definitely/ not because of free speech restrictions, but because of universal healthcare/welfare/education.

Freedom of speech is incredibly important, and countries who restrict it (in the philosophical sense) walk a dangerous path.

E.g. Australia making it illegal for people to comment on living conditions within refugee camps, or making it illegal to take photos inside factory farms.
> This assumes students have a good idea what specialty they plan to enter when they start medical school, which I assure you is not the case.

No, it assumes that if you make surgery and related specialties areas that one has to plan to enter when one starts medical school, the surgeons that result will have better manual dexterity.

Saying that if you change things, things will change, that is never a good argument against changing things. The real question is what the possible negatives would be of the change.
So you had a new startup every year?
You’re right to point out that many nations have better standards of living than the US. But I do think that standard of living has been mostly due to the relatively peaceful period of human history that we find ourselves in. It really wasn’t that long ago when most of Europe lived under some form of totalitarianism. Much of European history is filled with persecution of people for their beliefs, religion, etc... And so I think your statement shows how much you are taking your freedom for granted.
> Why is insider trading a different category than other forms of speech?

The speech isn't illegal - the act of trading based on insider information is. This works in a similar manner to bomb-making plans being legal to disseminate, but making a bomb being very illegal.

> Why is paying someone to murder someone a different category than other forms of speech?

This is solicitation to commit a crime, which is a specific exception to the 1A.

> Why are intentionally deceptive drug advertisements a different category than other forms of speech?

This is a false statement of fact, which is a specific exception to the 1A.

> Why is pointing a gun at someone and telling them to do something a different category than other types of speech?

Pointing a gun isn't speech, it's coercion.
I think this is really interesting and glad OP posted it as a reference.

I just assumed that everyone saves their digital paystubs and calculating precise salary at any point in ones career is trivial. I was surprised when OP was unsure of salary amounts or when precisely raises went into effect.

While I think this is cool from a career planning perspective, I don’t think it’s very useful from OP’s aim of correcting any biases on pay based on gender. But it doesn’t hurt and is helpful just to be aware of what’s possible.

It’s a bit odd that Forbes and Atlantic are used as sources of pretty definitive statements of existing biases and the ability of authors ability to negotiate based on status as a “white man.” (Personally, I think that confidence may be a bit misplaced :)

For the purposes of American law, "speech" is defined very broadly. It can apply to burning an American flag[0], plans for 3-D printed guns[1], and even bombmaking instructions[2].

Our Supreme Court has decided that corporations spending money[3], even in politics[4], is speech as well.

The O'Brien test[5] is generally used to tell whether a law encroaches on 1A rights.

The Java plugin, like Flash, was a security nightmare and poorly integrated with the rest of the stack.

Not having a bundled set of widgets is probably an advantage, flexibility wise.

At a point where I had something like eight years of operating history and showed a series of banks financial statements with mid six figures in revenue the overwhelming response was "Well we will not automatically punt out of the conversation where we agree to loan you 10% of that topline number but underwriting is expensive and that is really small beer... have you considered just getting more credit cards? We can accommodate that."

Among other factors complicating the math: you know how easy it is to start a SaaS company? It is similarly easy to credibly claim you are starting a SaaS company. (It is rather harder to credibly claim you are opening a pizza parlor; you need to have e.g. a location under contract.)

If you offer $100k to anyone credibly claiming to open a SaaS company, and charge reasonable business loan rates... fraud is going to be pretty annoying.

Business failure is going to be pretty annoying, too! What happens when 6 months in the company is making nothing and Google offers the founder Google-appropriate amounts of money to get a real job? Answer: you lose all your money.

No one gets good at anything on two hours a week of practice. Absolutely nothing. Two hours a week will barely get you past novice in a year.

I'm actually surprised that as a 'Principal Architect' he was only making $208,000 a year. Considering that entry-level positions at large companies which can have cash compensation of around $150,000+, it seems he may have been 'underpaid'.

Of course $208,000 is nothing to scoff at, and money is hardly the most important thing when it comes to life. Just interesting to see that a reasonably large Bay-area company would pay such a high-level engineer barely more than new grads can get.

The US Constitution also codifies freedom of association so you can have free speech but you can’t force me to associate with you. In the US companies have freedom of association as long as they don’t violate a protected class ( race, religion, sex, age, national origin, etc...). Since you the government can’t force a company to associate with someone they disagree with, you can be fired for things you say.

I chuckled at the snark in your 1st post, but jacobolus is right about the words are there to illustrate that these are far beyond ordinary capabilities (both in results & time to acquire).

They are not merely unqualified; e.g., the "heightened" is specifically described in the next paragraph as e.g., developing 10x perceptual resolution/sensitivity.

That said, there may be a bit of hand-waving vagueness, as I'm trying for a short post, not a thesis (my experiences in international competition led me to study neuroscience in college).

More broadly, if you've had enough of the physical experience to understand the points, you need little explanation, and if you don't, there's almost no explanation you'll understand.

Spend a decade or two learning & refining a true physical skill, craft, sport, musical instrument, martial art, or something and come back and tell us that the words have no meaning. Once you've been there, you'll tell us instead that the words were inadequate expressions of the phenomena.
