I don’t think we can. We might be able to replace market economies with something better, but any free market’s optimisation strategy requires people to make rational self-interested decisions.

Obviously we’re not great at the rational part, but my limited understanding is that we have not already successfully replaced free markets because our economic science knowledge is still nowhere near good enough at predicting the desires of nation-sized populations.

It is illegal to bribe politicians with money. There are reams and reams of laws and regulations about what politicians are allowed to accept, from whom, and when. The bribery laws do apply to lobbyists as well.

Really, it's a matter of campaign finance reform. As long as people and corporations can make "donations" to a campaign, it will never go away. Eliminate all independent campaign donations. Allot every candidate a fixed budget from the government. That would probably go a long way towards fixing the problem.

Even then you still have super PACs. Maybe I can't give money directly to Joe Candidate. But can you make a law telling me it's illegal for me to take out an ad saying I support Joe Candidate without throwing out the First Amendment? So far, the Supreme Court says you can't.

The entire language is based on specifying using simple mathematics (little more than high-school level), so this is the appropriate notation; a more programming-language like notation would be confusing as TLA+ is not programming. Those who have not learned basic maths notation in college can learn it in an hour (and automatically learn how to read maths in the process). The language is much simpler than Python. The entire language (except the proof language, which most people won't use at all) including all of the "standard library" is described in just a few pages: https://lamport.azurewebsites.net/tla/summary-standalone.pdf
Nope, not as long as Firefox randomly paints text boxes black (a bug report that is now old enough to vote) and hard refresh doesn't work. I expect to be able to do work on my browser, and Firefox just gets in the way.

I know lots of people who have monthly expenses that top their reasonable and well thought out mortgages. Education expenses, alimony, medical insurance/care & parental care are all major expenses for people.

While I agree with your sentiment that too many people spend money on dumb crap, making broad statements about what everyone should do is a step too far.

Is it not the case that if you use the steam runtime then libraries should be there? Ultimately valve are targeting steamOS not linux as a whole. Some linux distros (eg arch) have a package that bundles the steam runtime which should make such issues go away.

Oh yeah, you could run CGA+VGA, too -- they ran at different address ranges.

A lot of graphical software had commandline switches to override the videocard autodetection, "in case it failed", but this could also be used to force the software onto one monitor or another.

I ran dual-head under DesQview for quite a while. The CGA monitor whined like mad so I kept it off most of the time, but when I needed more display real estate, I'd turn it on and put my text sessions over there, leaving the graphical stuff on the VGA.
This is awesome, it's just called DNSfilter on F-Droid. :)
The pay-as-you-go reductions give you more flexibility about when you make optimisations to your code though and help you handle uncertainty around this.

For example, if I have a new workload that won't fit on existing hardware with AWS, I can either: a) reserve the new instances, or b) not reserve on the assumption I will be able to optimise in the 'near' future.

In practice this is hard to know but AWS forces you to come to a correct decision up front, whereas Google Cloud allows you to not have to answer this up front without being punished later for making the 'wrong' choice.
And yet, here we are, discussing it on the internet, and arguing about whether the researcher is right or whether there's a different/better solution.

Hi, thanks for your reply! The extension I'm using is https://github.com/GUI/lua-resty-auto-ssl. Unfortunately I didn't have any restrictions when I started to test it but I have disabled it for now.
That's a slippery slope though as all publications have redactions when they print stuff that's incorrect / wrong. Arguing that Daily Mail has more redactions than others is very dangerous. New York Times had to print corrections or redactions in the past, would it be acceptable for a browser to warn users that NYT should not be trusted?

People have to come to realize that nothing that gets said at this level should be taken literally. At the C-level of Fortune 500 companies, everything is crafted to create a narrative.

People claiming that Twitter or Facebook has a political bias are missing the real point. For example, I think that Zuck really, truly, doesn't give a fink about political bias. How could he? He'd never get any sleep! In his position, all he cares about is the money. If that takes making this or that comment or public statement or testimony to Congress, it doesn't matter. It's all geared towards and carefully crafted towards keeping the money flowing.

In that sense, he and the top brass at a place like Facebook are all political whores, so to speak. Selling their convictions for whatever keeps the spigot open.
It's not exactly like they have much of a choice.

Here's a piece on how Microsoft initially tried not to get sucked in the quagmire of DC lobbying:

io-ts[1] is a great solution for implementing runtime-types. The most interesting feature is that the static type can be "extracted" out of the runtime type so in most cases there is no duplication of information between runtime type and static type.

I wouldn't call this abuse - it's a marketing tactic, and it's rarely hard coded, more likely selected by default - at least that was my experience.

Just to add some numbers for perspective. In 2018 there was 763M PLN (~$200M USD) to split among 9000 approved organizations. The largest one got 166M with another 100 orgs getting 1M+.

He did VMS too, and the hypervisor for Azure, and the hypervisor for XBox One.

"Soon after, and a few months before his 70th birthday, Cutler joined the team. He soon “set the bar for how hard people should work and how high they should hold the quality bar,” Multerer said. Two years later, on Nov. 22, 2013, Xbox One shipped in North America.

“Dave designed and wrote the hypervisor for Xbox One,” Multerer said, with an obvious sense of awe. “He wrote the entire bottom of the stack. Because the hypervisor is there, Xbox games can run on Windows. That’s why apps run on Xbox One. The impact of that work is phenomenal. And the amount of work he did was phenomenal.”"

If google does this I hope they get the same public flogging Facebook has been receiving lately.

On a side note, would it be possible to create a DNS service that blocks ads similar to pi-hole? Does it just come down to money to run something like that? I would gladly pay $x/year for a top notch DNS service that just blocked all of this crap by default.
I have been skeptical about these claims in the past. I really like this tear down of the previous claims[0]. Since this articles has some specificity, chloroform and benzene, with a mechanism it seems like some more solid ground, instead of the vague claims of pollutants. This may be a step in the right direction though I must admit this is outside of my expertise.

That's an interesting comment considering how Chrome has recently changed its UI to look more like Firefox to the point I often mistake people for running Firefox when they are actually running Chrome.
Judging by the reading list you've provided below, you may not be familiar with more "productized" formal methods, designed for use by working engineers, like TLA+ and Alloy. I don't know if I'd call them entirely "mature" yet, but they are certainly industrial-strength, learned by ordinary programmers in 2-3 weeks of part-time reading of tutorials or in a few days with guidance, after which they go on to specify and verify large, complex real-world systems.

Lamport spent years simplifying TLA+ and designing it for user-friendliness (at the cost of making it inappropriate for logicians to do research on novel logics). While extremely powerful (people have implemented TLA in Isabelle and Coq to reason about concurrent and interactive systems), it is based mostly on ordinary, high-school or first-year-college math, and entirely eschews the complications of programming language semantics.

See the following industry reports:

* Amazon: http://lamport.azurewebsites.net/tla/formal-methods-amazon.p... -- this has been so successful that managers encourage developers to use TLA+ to reduce development costs.

* Microsoft: https://youtu.be/ifFfxRCX_jw

Another step backward for the decentralisation of the Internet... not that Twitter was decentralised in the first place, but it's unsettling to see Google taking over more and more of the "big pieces" of Internet.
Have you tried to get a group to consensus in an area where there isn't any lobbying or manipulation? People have lots of different ideas about how to do things, informed by different life experiences.

I've seen a lot of websites that don't work without scripts in my time, but never one that doesn't work without ads.

It would be possible to make one like that by hosting your content and your ads on the same domain, that would trip up naive hostfile blockers, but of course if companies were doing this quite a lot of people who habitually block ads wouldn't mind them doing so, since one of the key complaints against ads is data harvesting by third party ad providers.
AWS Lambda Container Image Converter: Convert Docker Images to AWS Lambda Layers

Like the parent said; we used to receive these notices quite frequently and the amount of time varies wildly. I should ask the teams who currently/primarily use AWS perhaps the situation has changed?

But it was not uncommon to have 24hrs of notice, especially for instances in US-EAST2 for some reason.
Luckily, my Linux desktop was still running an old version of Mendeley so I was able to make the switch.

My reason for wanting to switch was that Zotero has Google Docs integration. After making the switch, I was pleased to pay a modest amount for storage of my PDFs, which makes me feel like a customer instead of a product.
That's just another application of HDMI CEC, just like controlling a DVD/Bluray player with your TV remote.

How many physical resources are used when making software, music, art, theater, writing?

Actually a pretty decent amount over the life cycle of a person. After all those things require a functioning civilisation that educates properly to begin with.

The internet is mostly a means of making communication more efficient - that was one stupidly inefficient process ripe for an upgrade.

So yeah, no additional wealth really - just much less losses.
Ah, thanks for the lengthy explanation. I get it now.
The TypeScript Tax
This change isn't about one open source extension. It's about all extensions and protecting users who blindly click through permission prompts.
I think any TV with HDMI-CEC should work. it's also how it turns on your TV and switches to the correct input before hand.

as an aside I think Google home users leverage this to turn on their TV, which I think is pretty cool
If you played SimCity to create the perfect city, there's still nothing with a similar engaging dynamic.

This is why we need to make sure scientists who don't find anything interesting are still funded. They came out of a pool of scientists who started looking for something, and some of them worked on hypotheses that turned out to be correct.

Too often science is portrayed as a series of eureka moments. What gets missed is years spent in the lab trying yet another iteration.
I was a fan of Canon SLRs for a long time. I lost my camera and my best lens a while ago and spent some time looking at the latest offerings by Cannon and Nikon. In particular I was interested in getting a "full frame" camera because of its greater light collecting capacity.

When I looked at reviews of the lower-end full frame cameras from Canon and Nikon I found countless complaints.

Then I took a look at this camera

https://www.dpreview.com/reviews/sony-alpha-7-ii

and saw it on sale for about $1000 at retailers such as Best Buy.

I think it is just great. The choice of Sony lenses is not as good as Canon or Nikon, and particularly some of the high end glass is expensive, but the choice is not bad and is getting better.

The advantage of DSLR is that you can set up your shot on a ground glass screen and see it through the viewfinder. Maybe that is a tough more accurate than the rear and viewfinder displays of a DSLR, but the ability to sight through the rear like a point-and-shoot is convenient.

My Sony also shoots startlingly good video, in fact the sound isn't half bad using the mic built into the camera.

I have at least a dozen if not two dozen bibles. As another commentator mentioned there's many translations, I've got mostly English Bibles, but I do speak Spanish as well, so I have some Spanish ones, one Hebrew (Old Testament / Tanakh only) and a Greek one too.

So it wouldn't be too hard depending on the purpose of the Bible (is it a study bible? or a new translation, what is the focus of this translation? etc). It could also be a gift for somebody else. I've gifted a good number of bibles, even ones I absolutely loved.

After reading a lot about helicopters recently, I was reading the wikipedia page about them today, and found the description of how they are controlled if not wrong, then confusing. My first thought was to rewrite the section, but then I have also heard this opinion quite a lot now and it really put me off.

Looking at the talk page of one of the related articles [0] there was someone noting that "An expert that didn't cite the literature would be contributing original research, not verifiable information" which is forbidden on Wikipedia. This sounds like a reasonable principle, but if you look at the existing text it's barely cited. It's not clear then if replacing un-cited text would be appropriate, or if this principle would just be a tool used to resist change.

And even then, I've had correctly cited changes reverted in the past. So after that I ended up not making any changes, and that section remains - to me at least - confusing.

Indeed, and high DAUs doesn't translate to a high number of engaged users either. Just a 301 HTTP redirect through a domain as part of a chain can count as DAU and mean nothing.
Do you need to shill your product every gosh darn time this comes up?

NO, your product is not a good replacement.
You do not have custom rules, you can not block annoying elements, no it is not faster than Ublock and no, it is not even close to the feature set of Umatrix.
And you can not do these things, because your product basically ships an ad-blocking list, and is not a fully featured ad blocker that gives control to the user over what to block.

You have just added white lists of websites. As Beta. For Pro subscribers.
That doesn't even remotely compare to the permission feature set - in the hand of the USER - of UMatrix or Ublock.
Your Adblocker would not even be functional for someone visiting non-English pages.

YOUR extension will be caught by anti-adblocking scripts all the time.

Please stop. Every time this comes up you post the same thing.
Stop deceiving people.

You CAN NOT build an equivalent product with the Apple API, and you have certainly not done. No Matter how often you claim this!

By the way, Ublock, a product vastly superior to yours, is free.
