That's my point.

We should talk about the books and not about anything else.

My first answer was to someone who wrote, and I quote

In today's world, your race, gender, sexual orientation, age, hair color, clothing style, political affiliation, birthplace, and any other discernible group identity will be used to analyze, market, and categorize your work into the appropriate tribalist-identity.

There's no evidence that this is the case, in fact the evidence point to the exact opposite direction.
Not exactly android but if you buy a phone supported by LineageOS then you have that functionality from privacy guard. You can set various app permissions to always ask as well as other things such as (dis)allow an app to start at boot.

As a bonus you can be confident those settings will remain the same after updates ;)

Oh, AREXX, the one thing Amiga had which still has no counterpart. I mean, the technology is of course there, but the ecosystem and culture is not. AREXX integration is so alien it's hard to even explain it someone who did not see it in action back in the day.

The closest I can think of is Siri and such automation, except AREXX was a full programming language in its own. (The language was from IBM REXX.)
So the standard point of view is that you can't stop worrying about money until you have passive income of roughly USD $300,000 per year? Why would you need five times the average annual gross household income to be comfortable? That sound like the symptom of a serious problem.

Why not take your current annual spend, multiply it by 1.2 for a nice cushion, and then figure out what you need at 3% to gain that annual return? This should come out to be roughly an order of magnitude less than $10M.

I agree that I want content creators to get paid, but I really hate advertising.

I also pay for YouTube Premium and like their new subscriber feature, but also don't mind ads when they are embedded in the content and the content creator gets to pitch the product in their style. One notable example on YouTube is Binging With Babish.
> You're certainly right, but that doesn't change my point that, by just looking at the code, Haskell seems to have the better solutions for the problems.

Sure. But that's an inevitable consequence of what the document aims to achieve.

The problems chosen were the ones for which Haskell had simpler solutions.

The point of the document was to help someone who is already motivated to learn P6 and knows Haskell to get to grips with P6.

If the point were to motivate someone who knows Haskell to want to learn P6 then the examples chosen would be ones for which the P6 solution is better than the Haskell one.
I think I have a harder time visualizing relative sizes on two axes than one. I never thought of your point before though.
I'm sure there's a good explanation for it, but calling a conference that occurs in 2018 "CASP13" seems like an unnecessary way to create some confusion.
Here's the problem with your reasoning, via an example. American prosperity is as much an outcome of capitalism as poverty, repression, and murders in Central America are.

You see, capitalism indeed works great for the people who "win", yet to keep a relatively high standard of living at home (I'm talking about America since it's the wealthiest country in the world), much suffering has been inflicted in other faraway places: labour is exploited, natural resources are pillaged, brutal control is effected, either directly or by more dissimulated means... This is what people don't talk about then they mention the "joys" of capitalism, they don't mention the repression and murders in Guatemala and dozens other countries, they don't mention slavery and the genocide of natives, they don't mention how multinationals exploit resource-rich countries and siphon that sorely-needed wealth back to the privileged West, etc.
I'll just leave this here.

For the kind of person who would steal all that money in the first place? It probably was worth it. How much do you think he really cares about his family?
His brother and niece (in compliance and legal) also worked there, if I recall. He did time. She was married to someone from the SEC the year before his arrest. Its all these weird coincidences that are so strange.
"I didn't know I was benefiting from a crime, so I should be able to keep the profits I made instead of them being used to repay people that actually lost money" doesn't feel fair either.

I think a somewhat useful comparison is trade in stolen goods: even if you didn't know that something you bought was stolen, you still can be forced to return it to the actual owner. This situation is actually better than with physical goods, since they're only going after profits (which arguably were stolen from others), whereas in the case of stolen goods the buyer can be left hanging trying to recover the money they paid.

There’s no possible way that anybody could save up more than maybe a million dollars based on their own personal labor. Anything more than that is some form of legal theft.

"Illegal in Australia!" Will become a great new marketing phrase for security products!

Surely, if the product is illegal in Australia you can be assured that it's actually secure. Or at least, the company wasn't willing to compromise their product's security (just) for Australia.
So this has some interesting implications: the SEC has started going after the most fraudulent ICOs, and will no doubt start working their way backwards. Cryptocurrencies provide a permanent record of all transactions, and exchanges are obliged by KYC to map that to real people. This means that people who've already profited from crypto bubbles (and maybe even spent the money) might find themselves the target of recovery actions.
As per the article, the mechanism here is clawing back "profits" from people who withdrew money from Madoff's fund over the years. It's literally reversing the basic mechanism of this Ponzi scheme.

I think your objection would be valid if, for example, they sued contractors that were paid to renovate Madoff's office (and being paid with customers' money).

But as it is, I think the veil of ignorance might serve as a guide. Consider: You are informed that, before his untimely death in a completely unnecessary re-enactment of Wilhelm Tell's apple-related stunts (only this time with LSD), your great-granduncle invested $10,000,000 of the profits made from his seminal literary addition to the comin-of-age canon into Madoff's funds. You do not know if he ever found the clarity of mind to withdraw any funds. Would you choose the $10 million, or prefer a 50% chance at $20 million?

(the diminishing marginal value of money also comes into play here).

The analogy to stolen goods is useful.

Generally, if you receive stolen goods, there are two possibilities: you knew they were stolen (read: a prosecutor can convince a jury you knew), in which case you lose the goods and get prosecuted. Or you didn't know they were stolen (read: prosecutors can't convince a jury you knew), in which case you merely lose the goods.

This may seem unfair from the perspective of the unknowing recipient of stolen goods, but letting them keep the goods is equally unfair from the perspective of the original victim, and would feel like the law giving its blessing to the theft (it would also encourage schemes to knowingly but with plausible deniability receive stolen goods). So there's no solution that is guaranteed to appear fair from all perspectives. But the law generally sides with returning the goods to the original owner, effectively undoing the original theft.

In this case, the "investors" who are being targeted by the suits are also getting to keep their own original capital; they're just being required to hand back the ill-gotten gains. So the remedy is effectively undoing the Ponzi scheme.
>Its always bizarre that they don't have activities involving daylight first so that school could run into the dark and nobody would care because you are indoors anyway.

Exactly!

Your last sentence could not be more true.

The other problem is do you have any idea of how much bureaucratic nonsense would have to be changed in order to make one simple change such as changing the schedule of a school start and stop time.

It makes you wonder how hard it is to change things that may be of higher importance than this.

The 'profits' were illusory, and effectively the proceeds of crime. What seems fairest here is to try to unwind the entire thing, and return as high a percentage of everyone's money paid-in as possible over the life of the scheme.

Unfortunately it's never going to work out well for everyone - it was a massive fraud.

Humans can almost always give an explanation judgement but, for intuitive judgements at least, the reasons we give are frequently wrong or incomplete. People seldom notice that we rate essayists with more symmetric faces as better at writing but we have this bias and tons more besides.

But I don't think that there's any reason to doubt that when using abstract reasoning, Kahneman's system 2, our explanations of our thought processes can't be accurate. It's system 1 that's opaque to accurate introspection.

Citylab.com has published some great articles, but this isn't one of them. It's not clear to me why they published this article or who the intended audience is. And I'm skeptical of the conclusions, given that the article doesn't mention the rise of wind and PV solar power generation coupled with energy storage capacity.
> To a degree - he's only in favour of free speech for people he considers acceptable; cf his petition to get "Social Justice" courses banned in Universities.

I don't know the issue but would that have anything to do with government funded universities? Or is he arguing not even private universities should be legally permitted to teach "Social Justice" courses.

My main worry is that these practices allow many people to doxx and subsequently bribe journalists, lawyers, politicians, etc.

This feels like a judicial security hole. I wonder if something like responsible disclosure for software security issues could help, and what the moral issues are with that: doxx the people in charge of the laws, then contact them to say that you will make public how you obtained their personal data in <x time>, so they better make sure that the judicial hole is plugged before that time.
Thank you for the posting of those images, beautiful car and very well maintained. Most of the better DS's are no 'pallassified', mostly because the parts are laying around anyway and if you have a DS you might as well have the nicest version. A 23i Pallas is as nice as they come. I wonder if it originally had the half-automatic gearbox. My first had that, it was a really nice system once you got the hang of it, but the 19B had a regular five speed manual as well and that was pretty much trouble free.

The biggest advantage of the half-automatic was that people that would ask to drive it were easily put off by the exotic gearbox :) You had to start it by pressing the gear shift lever to the left after making contact to avoid starting it in gear, clever interlock.

Yes, although they won't get the whole Wi-Fi scan list, which means no fine grained triangulation, and also no BSSID, but it's definitely imperfect.

>On GDPR, I've seen people complaining about the high cost for implementing it

The bigger cost is to people's privacy, which is hard to quantify and hard for people to articulate why it's necessary. Collection and use of people's data is opaque and not at all transparent.

Which is why GDPR and other privacy legislation is needed.

I think there's a lot to say for the EU's approach: the societal benefits of location-based tracking (more targeted and hence relevant advertising, for example, or apps that are free to use) is not considered to outweigh the societal downsides (e.g. undermining democracy), so it's simply not allowed at all unless the user explicitly and unambiguously agrees with their data being used for that purpose.

I had a lot of trauma as a child, and it left me with an enlarged and overly-connected amygdala. If I was living 10,000 years ago, this wouldn’t be so bad. It would just result in an over-active fight/flight response. However, in the modern day, it results in an ‘always-on’ stress response which saturates my body with stress hormones. And, the stress hormones cause lots of other health issues, and it becomes a cycle of chronic conditions.

Unfortunately, as far as I know, one can’t decrease the size or connectivity of the amygdala. So, one thing to do is to strengthen the executive controlling function of the prefrontal cortex. Some people recommend meditation training and mindfulness for this. And, it’s helpful sometimes. Another theory is to participate in activites that cause other hormones to counteract cortisol, etc. Unfortunately, those types of experiences (e.g. having a solid and broad community of support) are even more difficult in the modern world. So, the only long-term solution that I know of is to remove oneself from stress completely - which is also practically impossible.

I don’t know if any of the 10 investments i made in 2018 are Ponzi schemes. I have to rely on regulations and hope companies like Lending Club are legit, I don’t pour over their paper work or hiring private investigators to figure out how they do their business. It would be silly to confiscate my profits because Lending Club turned out to be shady. Me hiring a fund to produce returns on investment is no different than hiring a painter to paint a room.

I would respectfully disagree.

It is not acceptable to roughly the amount of people (and I include myself) who make a deliberate and self conscious decision to oppose it.

This is a small, small group. I have a phone with Replicant OS, which puts me within a niche group of an already niche group (those willing to install alternative OS and strip Google on their phone). In a wider computing sense - what percentage of HN use GNU/Linux? Of them, who runs as fully Free OS? What percentage of them are rocking a 12y.o. librebooted thinkpad?

The general public are apathetic at best. Contrary to popular opinion, people are not ignorant to the behaviour of tech giants - they just don't care enough to stop. Clearly, it is still an acceptable answer to consumers.

It's like claiming that people don't go vegetarian or vegan because they aren't aware of the suffering. Of course they are aware. It's just easier to keep eating hamburgers and live with the cognitive dissonance.

It's the same with these apps.
The author does make a point of discussing the question of what business does a team like DeepMind have researching the folding problem? The solution is of no apparent value to the parent company Alphabet, and yet they were still funded. Perhaps this has to do with the attitudes or values of "modern" tech companies? Historically, there seems to have been a cyclically nature to the volume of basic research in industry, peaking with Bell Labs, sinking with the rise of Welch, and now coming back with the Googs and Facebooks.
By introducing VPN I guess (I think Google offers one on their Fi service) - I don't seen any other solution, especially since telcos sell your data as well.

It's just worth noting that flipping a switch in your OS might not do much in terms of location tracking.
Android has a hell of a lot more people developing it/for it. I wouldn't be so sure of that assumption.
i quite like when apps use my location info to do unique things like recommend places in the vicinity that are good(foursquare) or give me specific filters for a location(snapchat)
phones should obfuscate the location provided in some way so that users can take advantage of location services without continuously sharing my movement to the backend
