Interesting analogy about narrative style. I’m not deeply familiar with stack behavior but am very interested in narrative, so I want to make sure I read you correctly. Are you saying that he goes into depth on one topic, and then moves into depth on another, and then at the end you have to piece the topics together yourself?

What’s your preferred narrative style? To connect all the topics at a high-level in the beginning, and then go into depth on each?

(Based on everyone’s comments I don’t think I’m going to spend time on this video, hence why I’m asking here if my interpretation of your comment is correct.)

Suppose there is an Australian who works on important and widely used open source infrastructural software, has commit rights, and is compelled to insert a back door by this new law. Well, obviously that would be really bad. But it seems unlikely to succeed; too many eyeballs. Something closed like a mobile communications app in an app store seems like a more plausible target, but we should already have no faith in apps in app stores in the first place, with or without such laws in existence, wherever they come from. Even with "open source" apps, there is no way to know that you're running the same code. More generally, I have no faith at all that a person or company that develops such apps in (insert other country here) is not similarly compromised, even if they don't have an explicit law like that. For example, some countries have secret courts and secret court orders, so who knows? So as an end user I wouldn't personally feel any more secure if Australian developers were banned from participating in projects I care about, and of course that'd be terrible for those developers.

On the other hand, if I were a global company developing proprietary software with development offices in Australia I'd be pretty concerned... and complain loudly and publicly and lay down what the consequences will be. Maybe there could already have been court orders and ways to compel companies to assist at the management level (in probably any country), and maybe there could potentially be moles (from any country) hiding anywhere, but if the more tinfoil hat interpretations are correct this turns every employee on that continent into a mole, and even worse, risks accidental compromises through incompetence (beyond the specific target of a warrant/order/whatever). Right?

In the late 90s I recall hearing of crypto work being done in Australia to avoid the crypto export laws of certain other countries. If I'm remembering that correctly, its software development economy may have benefited in the past from other countries making choices like these, and I suppose it will now suffer. Why would a bank or whatever want to expose itself to that? Australian offices could totally finish up blacklisted for certain software projects.
One thing to keep in mind, as biased as it can be the media in the West is based on a journalistic tradition that lets it operate free from government interference. The media in authoritarian countries like China and Russia has no such tradition and has, from inception, existed to advance the government's positions. This does not mean the West is free from bias but no one really is.

So while Western journalistic outlets may be far from perfect, you have the opportunity with them to get less politically biased information. The best of them are actually quite good at providing factual, less biased information. The same is not true of China and Russia. One tradition offers more truthful and factual reporting than the other (which in reality offers nothing less than full on governmental propaganda... especially in the case of the Chinese media. They provide a counter narrative in the same way that the Saudis have provided a counter narrative to the Khashoggi murder).
The average US family had an annual income of $956 in 1940. That is $17,268.43 in todays dollars, far more than $3k. And that was almost entirely earned by a single individual rather than both adults in the household working like now. Also, someone earning that little paid no income tax. The average house price in 1940 was $2938, which is $53k in today's money. Now the average family income is $70k, but that's mostly two people's income, they only get to keep $60k because of income tax, and houses are $200k. So we earn about twice as much, but houses cost about 4 times as much. It isn't nearly as clear cut a win for modern life as you make it out to be.
> Outside of small scale independent journalists who are always at the risk of getting de-platformed, non-NATO/petrodollar-aligned foreign news are the only place I can find Americans talking about American stances like leftism (in the economic sense), anti-war, etc.

The good news is that there are many opportunities in the U.S. and West: The New York Review of Books, London Review of Books, The Nation, Mother Jones, Common Dreams, Tom Paine, Democracy Now, and many more. The Guardian generally supports those positions too; Le Monde does, last I knew, as well as Der Spiegel. You could read that kind of thing all day and never run out of content.

Unfortunately there are no modern smartphones with a removable battery and the Super AMOLED display screen (the screen on the Samsung Galaxy and iPhone).

Batteries are always the bottleneck here. My Samsung Galaxy S6 is at a point where the battery lasts maybe an hour. But because the battery can't be replaced I need to buy a new phone.

I'd get a LG V20 (most recent phone with removable battery, over 2 years old) if not for the fact that I'm so used to that sharp AMOLED display screen that I can't go back to an LCD screen.

I guess I'll be reluctantly buying the Samsung Galaxy S9+, but I hope the battery isn't useless in 2-3 years forcing me to buy a new phone again like now.
That's a very interesting point for me.

There are actually some very interesting studies looking at blood samples from the 1950s, for instance, that indicate that celiac is much more common than it used to be. See for instance "Increased Prevalence and Mortality in Undiagnosed Celiac Disease" in the journal Gastroenterology, July 2009.
What? No. T is a subtype of T?, so I don't get where you are going.

If a generic function f accepts a covariant Dog and Animal is a supertype of Animal you cannot call f with Animal because it requires a Dog. if f accepts a covariant Animal you can call it with a Dog because Dog is a subtype of Animal.

Now replace Dog with T and Animal with T? and you can see it is perfectly fine.

Step one:

Find a GOOD toastmasters group to join

Warning there are bad ones, find at least 3 and try each one out. I personally looked for one that was friendly and not overly strict. The very strict ones, IMHO, have trouble keeping members. Who the hell wants to go somewhere to get beat up all the time.

Note there are different speaking skills. Toastmasters will help you in business a lot! It will help you a good bit in your personal life too, but for that you might need to go out and meet and socialize with people. Consider finding a meetup group.
Why would you embed an image file, instead of just link to it? That’s not the problem at all.

The problem is just simply knowing that “1935” is a number, and a date. Microformats somewhat address this, but it has limited uptake.

But relying on people to tag stuff correctly, isn’t going to work. Just look at the mess that META tags are, especially those outside of share card population. I’m not talking about reading the spec. I’m talking about seeing how they’re actually used. People can’t even get “tags” right, let alone “author” or “date”

> foreign propaganda has some utility. I don't trust Chinese or Russian state media to report on internal Chinese/Russian affairs honestly, but they can provide a worthwhile counter narrative to the West on certain international issues

A bit bizarre, to attempt to legitimize lies and manipulation, but I guess I'm not surprised to see that kind of comment these days.

Authoritarian governments' interest in manipulating foreign audiences is as strong as their interest in manipulating domestic audiences. The article describes massive Chinese investment in it, and Russia's investment in it is well known; as we know, both operate even on the micro-level, such as on social media and in Internet forums. In the comment below I linked to a study that describes it as a massive and effective campaign "political warfare":

I agree 100%. I myself don’t have a CS degree. I thought though with your emphasis on training great employees rather than finding them you were talking about hiring people that maybe aren’t the great programmers. It’s hard enough to design a selection process for exactly what you are looking for (i.e. programming ability), I have no idea how one would go about identifying candidates with great potential that can’t already program.
I'm sorry about your brother, but had there been no heroin to consume, he would never have been in a position to make the "ultimate mistake", as you put it.

People are stupid, kids are dumb, people are in great pain and want oblivion, people are bored, people just want to have a good time. There are numerous reasons people abuse drugs.

The greater the access to drugs, the greater the potential damage to drug consumers and people around them.

> I'm arguing against making drugs illegal to "protect" people.

Contrary to your comment on society not deeming alcohol worth banning, we actually ban those things in most situations due to the damage they do. We do that to protect people. Riding a bike without a helmet is against the law where I live, thankfully.

I like that there are laws that restrict what I, a grown man, can do. I don't think there's an inherent need to have the freedom to do anything I want. I can't shoot a man in the head, I can't rape and pillage, I can't take some drugs that science has proven that many humans don't have the capacity to safely consume on a recreational basis.

"It's my body and I'll do what I want with it. You're not my mom!!" isn't something I'd ever say. I live in a community. I have a family and friends.

We'll have to agree to disagree.

Related: A study by a leading U.S. defense think tank on intense, active warfare, on the part of China and Russia, in the political realm:

https://csbaonline.org/research/publications/countering-comp...

The Chinese and Russian governments are currently waging political warfare against the United States and its allies. Although efforts to manipulate public opinion and political debate often receive less attention than armed interventions or military modernization programs, Beijing and Moscow are embarked upon campaigns to suppress dissent, discourage foreign narratives they oppose, generate support for policies they favor, keep their rivals distracted, and mitigate pushback against overt acts of aggression. To date, these efforts appear to be having success.

Oh yeah, I"m not suggesting that the pasture could be converted to cropland. I think we just aren't pricing in a bunch of externalities for beef production that would otherwise raise the price and shift consumption to poultry.

The fees to access that land are very low ($1.70/cow/month)[1]. Maybe those lands would have more ecological value if they weren't being grazed, so add a charge for the environmental burden. A tax on bovine methane emissions is also necessary.

In creating things that matter, one has to decide what matters, are you creating what matters to you or to the public? If for the later, then you must ask yourself if you are willing to deal with all that it entails such as criticism, moving in a direction that you don't care about where you might not even enjoy the work, and doing a lot of work that other's might value but refuse to pay for.

I frankly believe that the act of creating is "creating things that matter", if it never mattered you wouldn't put in the effort in the first place, the question is does the impact matter? if you created something for only you or you and your friends, what's wrong with that? Absolutely nothing! It use to be that creators created things that mattered to them, but now it seems we are driven to create for others and for profit.

If anything, I would argue against "creating things that matter" and simply preach, "CREATE!"

I recommend http://practicaltypography.com, though it won't answer your question (iirc).

By ‘slim’ fonts, do you mean lighter lines? If so, afaik it's not a matter of prescriptive typography, and in addition, heaviness may vary with the font. For headings and short inscriptions, light fonts are alright (personally I often outright prefer them for headings), but for body text, you should check legibility of the chosen font on non-hidpi displays, and preferably ask someone with older and more tired eyes—as light fonts tend to cause strain for people with worse eyesight. Generally, of course, the ‘regular’ weight is the recommended one, since it's tailored for setting main text in the first place. The current fashion of using light fonts is brought about by graphic designers, not typesetters.

If you mean condensed fonts instead, those are only suited for short runs of text, since the lines become too dense.
