Kinda saturated of the so called "censorship-free"-Patreon solutions if you follow the space, but the whole point is to not have to trust that someone won't block you.

So a solution is not yet another platform but everyone (that cares enough) to run their own decentralized way of accepting payments/support.

Just install BtcPayServer ( https://btcpayserver.org/ ) and you can start accepting payments in Bitcoin and other coins even via LN, without having to trust any intermediary plus no extra middlemen fees.
iPod is a successful one. Chromecast audio is not. How long do you want to keep a not successful product around if you own the company?

Unsweetened tea is a popular soft drink in Japan, anyway my point is there are a lot of the same brands in China except in China they are very sweet
Thanks, I was thinking about ICANN, but i'm a bit tipsy and didn't want to discredit my point by misspelling an organization. Yet, this still proves my point, the internet, as we are experiencing it today, is based on different orgs simply playing nice by some rules established by a central authority. What if they stop doing that? What if the central auth is going to have something against you?
Agreed 100% schema.org and whatever fb's equivalent is only "succeeded" because of the incentive in their ranking models (thus centralization).

Highly unlikely someone will bother with this (in addition to all the other quirks) while making their website.
> Probably the difference between hardware and software

Uh, but it's hardware in both cases; Chromecast Audio is a particular model of hardware Cast receiver.

> If apple canned airplay I'd be pretty pissed.

Yes, that would be like Google killing Google Cast. Which they are decidedly not doing.
The solution isn't to outright get rid of Coca Cola classic. It's to discourage it's consumption. I drink coca cola, but not often, I do enjoy it though and absolutely hate the "diet" variants.

You'll be surprised to hear that developers like Linked Data. People starting with Linked Data development today are not burdened by the Semantic Web legacy and mistakes of the past. We've been working with front-end devs who have never seen RDF, and never will. They enjoy how Linked Data is able to cross borders and leads to more data than a centralized database could ever give you.

The confusion in your comment is that one would need RDF to do Linked Data. I've written about that misconception here: https://ruben.verborgh.org/blog/2018/12/28/designing-a-linke...

Don't get me wrong, the Semantic Web community has made mistakes and has not been developer-friendly. But we're not still stuck in the 90s. For instance, XML hasn't been a part of any of this for many years.
They should actually force him to veto it. This whole business of delaying doing anything because maybe he will take the political hit of using a veto is inane. Why would he want to become the face of the government shutdown? Why would he go to his base and tell them he prefers getting a wall, to having safe milk (USDA) or tax refunds (IRS) or food (welfare). Congress can only do this because there are hundreds of them, so they can point fingers at each other. But a president has no one to blame but himself.
One of the reasons we needed extremely aggressive unrolling was the size/lack of a stack, making recursion or anything that might look like it difficult/limited/impossible, due to needing to store a location to jump back to.

Anything you could do to minimise the amount of things needed to store, and their size, wasn't wasted time.

And though it might very ocassionally be similarly necessary on some chips today, it's more likely you'll work in assembly on those.
It becomes a legal and business decision for the registrar.

Most serve at the pleasure of a formal contract with their TLD control entity (e.g. ICANN).

Ultimately, if you were to sue them, there's a root document of legal responsibilities and behavior to point to.

In contrast to whatever emphemeral TOS bullshit Google feels like tossing out. And furthermore, unlike Google, they can't really just ignore you.

Or, to put it another way, VISA, American Airlines, Coke, etc also have an interest in maintaining legal ownership of domains. They could care less about Google accounts.
From Wikipedia:

> Remote sensing is the acquisition of information about an object or phenomenon without making physical contact with the object and thus in contrast to on-site observation, especially the Earth.

I've encountered the term in other contexts, but always where the object is remote with respect to the sensor. The applicable term here will be "sensor networks." The OP describes it as a "remote sensing network", so we all understand the meaning, but it might be best to substitute another keyword there like "RF sensor network" to increase search relevance.
The 32-bit Unix 2038 end has already been an issue in some fields. For instance, in finance, it was already an issue in 2008 when calculating risk, payments, etc on say a 30 year bond.
Actually, we've been chatting about this, and I think it would be great to start selling Solid servers on a OLinuXino board with a nice box around. Not because it would make us a lot of money, but to demonstrate that you, at least a bunch of nerds, can easily take complete control, from everything to the Open Hardware to the MIT-licensed server.

I'm running Solid on my own box, and I can't see myself doing it any other way, but it was pretty hard to set it up. We need to change that.

Being widely phased-out due to being too risky and error-prone. Attacks like this get a lot of media attention, but are pretty rare overall. It's much more common for someone to handle certificates and servers badly somehow, ending up in locking all of your visitors out of your own site, or you never bother with it, but the attacker who takes over your domain does, once again basically hijacking your domain name indefinitely.

I never set it up for any of my sites for the same reason, just too many ways for it to go wrong.

Early web was quite decentralized already. Many separate Bulletin Boards, later forums. Many people writing there had an idea how to create their own.

It didn't start centralized. Centralization happened. I might be more cynical than I should be but as a designer I struggle to see the future in which we have social dynamics that favor decentralization instead of convergence into a less self-managed system (i.e. all current centralized networks).
Weird, I haven't had that experience -- I've switched between Fi and my work SIM several times while abroad using the chooser in my Pixel 3's settings… Did you perhaps somehow reset your eSIM?

Edit: ah, you were using a physical SIM. Mildly ironic that you'd have a worse experience "re-pairing" than with an eSIM.

Related anecdote: at 34c3 last year, I was able to activate Fi while in Germany, but 6 months later, no matter how many agents I talked to (none of whom identified being in Europe as the problem), I wasn't able to reactivate it in Europe. This was because I had paused my service and switched phones, and they apparently implemented checks to prevent activation outside the USA.

Or, I was the accidental beneficiary of the various GSM hacking going on at Congress, and it never was supposed to work in the first place.

Curious if it'd be effectual (although impractical) to use an AT&T femtocel to activate while abroad…
This is the HN bubble. They only have this reputation among nerds who are still angry about losing Google Reader. Go ask any normal person if Google has a reputation for discontinuing products, and they won't know what you're talking about.

Also, i don't know who out there is heavily invested in a $35 audio dongle. I love mine, but it still works just as well today as it did yesterday and not being able to order more isn't causing me any anxiety.
I had something similar happen with Uber early on, but it was as simple as the card I had in the account expiring. I'm pretty sure I'd never even actually used the service but had signed up as a "just in case" when I was going to be in an area where it made sense.

For whatever reason when I tried to use it rather than saying that the card had expired they locked my account. By then some of the "fish rots from the head" aspects of the company and its culture had started to get press, so I basically said "Hm, good riddance" and never pursued it.

In my opinion, the linked data future is still discussed, because when Tim Berners-Lee first presented the idea of Semantic Web in 1994, he used what I would call an IoT scenario to describe it ([1], scroll to the end; I really hope he is not reading this comment). Now that the IoT is here, maybe more people are ready to listen.

And just to make sure we are on the same page here: it's not academics' job to build usable products. We will continue working on things that are novel from the academic standpoint; if people like you dismiss LD/SemWeb, those novel things will have "a terrible track record of solving real-world problems". I hope this does not come across as too personal.

I think the 'trickle down' theory of economic works in principle but only when you choose the correct starting point for the trickle. Forcing banks to have a high level of reserve funds makes sense because in a down market or a crisis lending is less threatened, giving normal families more cash will benefit the economy because they will circulate that cash through the system. Large tax breaks to multinational companies doesn't make sense in a 'trickle down' way because there is so much a large Corp can spend money on that affects only a sliver of the total economy: executive bonuses and share buybacks are the obvious culprits.

At the end of the day though, everyone involved with this legislation knew who it was intended for, and it definitely wasn't the economy as a whole. Not to be a partisan but I really can't even discern what domestic policies the GOP has on it's agenda, especially post tax cut. There are so many big ticket problems in American society and they don't seem to have a plan for any of them.

Effectively reversing the transaction isn't the same as not letting you buy anything ever again.
The issue such devices have in practice is upfront cost, compatibility, the need for port forwarding, and the lack of redundancy so you don't lose your data. Among other problems but these come to mind. Centralization solves those problems because you can connect to a server instead of port forwarding, your data might be stored across 3 servers, the cloud storage might be as cheap as free, and applications are designed to work seamlessly with a small number of big cloud providers.

In the depths of my soul I would love to re-decentralize the web. I truly believe data centralization will cause people to suffer a lot. decentralized tech needs to solve so many problems before alternatives to centralization become viable. Centralized approaches also improve over time and are a moving target to keep up with.
Hmm, I haven't had a chance to thoroughly check out the article you linked, but I am surprised it's coming from Norway of all places. ADHD isn't as widely treated in Norway as the USA; additionally, Norway's population is only about 5.5 million people, so I am a bit surprised they have conducted enough research on ADHD and driving to present strong research on this. That said, I'm not saying you're wrong or the research is invalid. I'm just surprised.

"That all said... while we can certainly complain about rampant misdiagnosis - I wish I had a dollar for every time someone told me that I'm just addicted to stimulants - my opinion is that this particular rationale for disqualification is absolutely justified."

So, I'm also an ADHD patient, medicated. I've gone back and forth between believing in the diagnosis and thinking maybe I'm just dependent on the medication that I've taken for so many years. It's hard to say now, and of course quitting stimulants requires a LOT of time off work and learning to execute tasks without pharmaceutical aid. So, if you were to take a patient who has been on amphetamine for 10 years and abruptly cut him/her off, the patient would likely go through a period of fatigue, low-interest in activities or work, and struggling getting anything done. I've heard this can take as long as 6 months or a year for certain people. I don't believe you can diagnose ADD/ADHD or any comorbid mental illness in the presence of drug withdrawal. Think of it as a "brain re-training" period. As you can imagine, not many people have the willpower or resources ($) to take time off work and truly "reset" their brains, so they stay on the meds and hope that it works out..

I’ve always wanted something with a unified tag,list,tree,status approach. In one view I might want to represent an issue status as a kanban. In another the same status is an icon, color, size, checkbox, progress bar or what have you.

F.ex let’s say I want to do a quick t-shirt sizing of a large set of issues. A quick way to do that in a workshop is a mute mapping into size bins.

Also quick an free hierarchies are important. Workflowy style outlining, perhaps again with some additional labeling assistance depending on nesting level. F.ex if you want to structure things with impact mapping or story mapping and the whole ATDD thing.

If I’m completely free to dream I’d much rather work with real pens, papers and walls though. So the dream is to simply fix the annoying physical limitations of that. Can I have unlimited, indexed wall space please? Also make it easy to rearrange groups of cards.

Yeah, but I specifically said non-networked appliances. Most microwaves I know don't even let you input the date. For those that do, and that you still want to keep in 2038, you can just enter a fake, old date.

I understand that there might be some smart microwaves with Wifi and whatever (setting all sentiments about that aside), but those are not what are meant.
Reasons why I'll probably never take traditional venture capital again:

- Costs are low enough I don't need them for much if anything.

- I'm unwilling to accept any form of liquidity preferences. Not under any circumstances. They don't get to further offload risk upon other owners like cowards, they have to ride the same risk train as every other owner. Liquidity preferences and the various types of abuses deployed through them are the greatest scams going in the VC world. In a typical start-up there is no greater way that VCs cheat the other owners.

- I don't believe in vesting the founders in cases where they've built the initial product over time (eg 6-12 months). I found the company, I build the product, I launch the product, the VC gets to ride my train, then they want me to vest my existing ownership. Nope. My shares are already fully vested, it's my company. These days I only allow VCs to pitch me, I never pitch them. If you build something that matters at all, the VCs seek you out anyway. In the US there's a hundred billion dollars in VC money every year desperately looking for ventures, make it beg for your attention.

- VCs are only allowed to have common shares. They ride in the same boat as everyone else. They get no choice in the matter.

- There is a lot more money chasing few decent start-ups. That equation is only going to continue to get worse in the favor of the founders. There are a lot of reasons for this, including the cost of starting up being low, and also the requirement for the Fed to keep interest rates permanently low so the US Government doesn't collapse (that will perpetually keep money sloshing around the system looking for returns, feeding bubbles, etc). Just ~4% on a soon-to-be $30 trillion in public debt would collapse the US Government, they can never allow that, which tells you how they're going to be forced to behave over time. There will be periods of ups and downs to this, however it's going to be higher ups and higher lows for loose capital over the near term, due to the Fed flooding the system with liquidity (at least for the next few decades, who knows beyond that).

These terms are non-negotiable. The VCs can take a hike if they don't like it. For practical purposes there's an unlimited supply of other capital and other VCs, especially if you have something good at all.

This is how all start-ups should deal with venture capitalists for the next 20 years or so, until something breaks with how the Fed is going to be forced to finance the US Govt with perma low rates. Capital is in a begging position during that time, use that fact to your advantage.
I got out of mobile development because of the dark abyss that was payments from the carriers. None of the places I worked at ever knew how big the next check was going to be and why it never matched up with our metrics.
