The Linux kernel has explicit rules for the cases where it allows it:

An explicit license exception for the syscall interface, stating that calling it from userspace is freely allowed: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/lin...

And modules, e.g. drivers, have various statements from Linus on how they're not necessarily considered derived works of the kernel/linked to the kernel, e.g. http://linuxmafia.com/faq/Kernel/proprietary-kernel-modules.... or http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0312.0/0670.html
Adblock only helps a little. For example, unless you use a VPN, your ISP knows every site you visit. If you have a debit card your bank knows where you spend your money. Retailers can figure out a lot about you from your spending habits e.g. Target figuring out when someone was pregnant. Facial recognition is growing in use to track people in stores and malls.

We are still in the early days of commercial data analysis. Online retailers and ad brokers (e.g. Google) have been the trailblazers. But it will spread. Imagine a combination of facial recognition and data analysis being used in the real world to serve you custom billboard ads or to allow sales people to remind you that you probably need to buy new shoes.

Lets move beyond sales in to really creepy territory. Want to intimidate someone? Get hold as much of their marketing data as you can, it'll probably be on sale from some data broker. If its not on sale, bribing someone will probably get you what you want. Now let your target know that you know where they shop, what they buy, what websites they visit and maybe they have a drink problem they want to keep hidden. If you think that what legitimate businesses can do with your data is bad, imagine what criminals could do.
Of course we can't prove anything about possible future non-human brains, but try to think about it this way.

Is there a limit to the number of consequences that a single action can have? If you think about all possible future consequences, then the answer is clearly no. Using an example from another comment, opening a closed door could bring you to your death, which has infinite consequences for your (potentially future) family.

Therefore, if rationally analysing each possible consequence takes any non-zero amount of time, deciding any action rationally would take an infinite time. You could try to rationally decide what is the maximum amount of time you can spend on each choice, but deciding that amount rationally would require infinite time.

This isn't a proof, but this consideration comes from spending a lot of time thinking about rationality and AI.
Things really have changed over the years. I used to shop in the US and bring everything back with me to Europe because computer parts were half the price. Now I'm thinking about doing the reverse[0] (240€ for the same NVMe SSD over here).

That's the thing. Nearly everything is an ideology, but that doesn't mean everything is equally valid or equally wrong. But we need to get out of the tribalism and dogma that often comes with any ideology, belief system, -ism or simple opinion, and consider the more tangible ideas, actions and policies instead.

Lately I've tried to avoid talking about -isms. Doesn't always work, because everybody talks about them, and I'm certainly deeply committed to a couple of -isms. But they tend to become both hollow labels and collections of dogma. "Socialism" is an obvious one that I often see abused. People oppose for example universal health care because they consider it socialist, and because socialist Russia/Venezuela was/is bad, universal health care must be bad. It's a stupid way to argue, but surprisingly common. The same is also true of "capitalism" of course. It can mean either the concentration of wealth in the hands of a small elite, or the free market. And even "free market" means different things to different people.

Better to let go of the dogmas and labels and talk about the results we want, while looking critically at what actually works and what doesn't.
It really depends what 'passive' is defined as, but I can share some:

- Recharged - $2720 / month. I write a briefing once a morning about the technology industry, about 350 people pay to receive it + sponsor something without advertising or nonsense tech stories. Still growing! https://char.gd/recharged

- Write Together (new project, but hey) - $1,200 / month. I built a platform for learning to Write with others, based around building habits/streaks. https://writetogether.space

Now the thing is, both of these require maintenance, but not like a full-time job: I push code, write on them, etc. But they're not fully passive, so it's quite a specific difference -- still wouldn't trade working on them for anything, however.

Okay, dad.
There's a much closer analogy from software development to the cow story. The cow story is confusing because the cow that you see (A) is fake, but the real one (B) you don't know about. So your belief is not a justified true belief because although the real cow exists, the one your knowledge refers (A) to isn't the real one (B).

An intertemporal variant of this is race conditions. There have been lots of problems of the form "(1) check that /tmp/foo does not exist (2) overwrite /tmp/foo"; an attacker can drop a symlink in between those and overwrite /etc/password. The file that you checked for is not the same file as you wrote to, it just has the same name. This is an important distinction between name-based and handle-based systems.

100 megabytes per second sounds more like the limit of a gigabit connection than an encryption algorithm. Most NAS boxes of the last 5 years should be doing encryption offload on the CPU via things like AES-NI instructions which should be hitting ~500 MB/s per core.
I do not. I mean it's not avoidable that way, because there's no ticket with the discount available at the station.
The entire world of AI relies on dealing with "unknown" input?
That's a big problem for sure. Unfortunately, the collapse we'll get if we do not rapidly transition to a sustainable economy is likely to be much, much worse. But your point is a good one - how do we manage an orderly transition to a sustainable steady-state* economy when the changes needed to do so in the time we have are likely to be so drastic, they will cause a collapse of any social system that tries to make them?

*We can probably eke out some more economic growth while cutting resource consumption, but sooner or later continued growth and finite resources become an impossibility. If nothing else, we'll eventually generate too much waste heat from energy production.

Where does disabling javascript fit into this picture? I was interested to notice that I had to create an exception for this site to enable 1st party javascript in order to be able to read their security suggestions.

So, let's take Route 66. Are you telling me that none of that route had a name? Or did they go along while adding Route 66 signs and take _out_ existing names for the roads used?

Did people wake up one day and find that their "Main Street" was now just "part of Route 66, it doesn't have a name" ?

The letter-number designations like "A33" in the UK are like your route numbers. Some were purpose built and nobody cares what the underlying road is "named" (all the major Motorways are like this, there is no "name" for the M25, it's just the M25) but most are pre-existing roads, designated as part of some route and to locals the original name is what they'd call their bit.

e.g. Nobody where I live would say "the A335" they'd say "Thomas Lewis Way" because that's what this part of the A335 is named even though it was constructed specifically in order to bypass local streets for the A335 route. A person from out of town might say they used the A335 but probably people would look puzzled, then go "Oh, Thomas Lewis Way, yeah".
The Drunkards Walk talks about the misuse of statistics in court as well. Not only do they get the math wrong easily, or make common mistakes ("the odds that it's raining given the ground is wet, is the same as the odds that the ground is wet given it's raining"), but if someone accurately states there is only a 1 in 100,000 chance of something happening by chance, the jury will think that means the "something" was not by chance, instead of "oh, so it happens by chance to thousands and thousands of people" like they should.

JS does feel inferior once you use TS.

I can answer that one: look at other countries. Look at what they do and compare the results. Some countries use taxes to provide health care, some fund it partially by taxes, some don't use taxes at all. Compare the results: which system gets the best health care for the least amount of money?
If someone hacks your webcam, they probably installed a keylogger as well and helped themselves to whatever files you have, etc. In other words, if that happens, you have a bigger problem.

You should of course not be using a compromised laptop. Covering the light that goes on when they activate the camera would be one of the few signals that something like that is up; that is of course assuming they did not manage to disable that.

Otherwise solid list.

I'd add a few items:

Plan for the worst and have a contingency plan for breaches. E.g. have a list of phonenumbers handy that you can call to get cards blocked, critical accounts that you need to verify the integrity off, secure backups of essential documents, etc. Also consider what can happen to you when you travel. Phones, laptops, etc. get stolen all the time. Hardware tokens are easy to lose. Bags get stolen, etc.

Keep your 2fa recovery codes in a sane place where you can access them but no-one else can. An encrypted file on a drop box folder with a sufficiently strong key might do the trick.

Be careful with paper copies of anything. Burglaries do happen and in case you are targeted, this may be the most valuable thing to steal in your building.

Require passwords to be entered whenever you access your password manager or 2fa app (e.g. authy). It only takes a few seconds to access your password manager if somebody gets their hands on your unlocked device while you visit the restroom or grab a coffee.

Have an aggressive screen lock policy (it should be locked whenever you are separated from your laptop/phone). Many devices have all sorts of convenient features that boil down to them being unlocked when they shouldn't.

It's interesting to see an outside perspective on a place you're so familiar with. One point that was pretty funny was the idea that London is pedestrian friendly with all those little streets to walk along. I think it's more down to London being haphazardly constructed over the last ~2000 years, and even when it all burned down they refused to change the layout.
Which does make it fun. You don't get the line of sight you find in other European cities, and you can twist and turn around the place to your heart's delight.
These studies were conducted along political axis lines, "liberal versus conservative". However, most arguments that are being employed in politics are not hard to invalidate in the strict sense by application of formal logic and counter examples. That being the case, it seems an obvious conclusion that one picks holes preferably in the opposition's arguments.

Politics is about vested self interest, not logic.
Which you should...
Hasn't plant growth been happening for a few years in space? Like the salad they grew and ate in ISS.

Is this such big news because it's an ongoing step in living in space or am I missing something.

Not trying to take away from the achievement but just curious why this is such a big story. I'd thought there would be more news focus on the dark side of the moon updates or astronomy potential of being there type thing.

Not likely; the population will grow, becoming interplanetary just means we'll have more places to grow. It won't move the problem, not unless there's more emigration than population growth, and you can already see how that works on earth.
Nobody is forced to take part in the auction. There are other CPUs that can be chosen from. If an auction participant calculates it pays for them to buy these even an inflated prices they are not really ripped off, it's just free market.

Also, binning of CPUs is a fact of life. CPUs don't all come the same from the production line. It allows you to buy bit less capable CPU for much cheaper if you wish so which, I would assume, you didn't take into consideration when you posted your thoughts.
We already have sustainability on Earth; it's just that it's expensive. There's no new science or knowledge required, just a lot more investment.

1) Saying that you can reach objective conclusions for what actions you can take purely based on rationality, without making axiomatic assumptions, has all the same problems as doing so for mathematical theorems.

Objective theories for how to act (including morality), requires that all subjects that could possibly be covered by the theories are 100% in agreement with all axioms. Also, all theory on top of the axioms must be 100% stringent.

2) I think you take the argument the wrong way. Our ideologies tend to influence both what we perceive as rational as well as how important it is for us that something is rational (as opposed to socially acceptable, comfortable, self-serving or a number of other metrics we can use to measure the value of the "something")

3) Rationalism is a well documented ideology (see my other post).

For me the point is: why would you trust a VPN provider any more than you trust an ISP? There might be specific reasons for specific providers, but in general you're putting the same amount of trust in either way.

If the real cow (B) was not present, your belief that there was a cow in the field would be justified but not true. Seeing a the fake cow (A) justifies your belief that there's a cow in the field. Adding a real cow (B) that you can't see doesn't remove the justification.

Apple phones are relatively standard hardware with good software and a (unjustifiably?) high price tag.

University used to be free in the UK.
Then tuition fees at University started at £1000ish a year, went up to about £3000, and is now £9000. All in about 10 years.

Also small fees like these affect the poor more than the well off. If I miss an appointment and it costs me £5, I wouldn't miss the money.

A quick search apparently shows that a quarter of British households have less than £100 in savings. [0]

Liquid electrode batteries transcend the "unfortunate tetrahedron" paradigm in many ways. By isolating the reactants from the reactor, "unlimited" storage and near-instant "recharging" (exchange of discharged for charged electrode solution) are possible.

This seems to be the most promising paradigm for achieving the needed energy / power density without making a more than mediocre bomb in the process.... Unfortunately, the process is best suited to larger installations due to the inherent complexity, and scales poorly to portable applications.... So still tradeoffs, of course.
