I have witnessed the same and would also like to include that the journalists often land, shall we say, sub-par 'experts' as interviewees.

Using anonymous sources is a tried and true practice that has been around since the dawn of journalism.

Would you rather news media only report things so inconsequential that everyone involved is happy to be publicly outed?
The NYT has been on a crusade against FB for the past two years now. No other major news publication has published as many articles on FB as they have.

I will never support NYT, not because I support FB, but because they disguise their media campaign as one meant to protect the individual's privacy, when in reality NYT has a very strong monetary incentive to go after FB. These ulterior motives further decay the trust the general public has in news media of all kinds and it's disappointing to see HN gobble up NYT article after NYT article just because FB is unpopular here.
Another horror story of Apple's totalitarian control. Some people say that what Big Apple is doing is necessary for their security and privacy needs. This sort of blind trust, while incurable, waits for a major scandal to kill itself.
Thank you kindly for the excellent reply, it is certainly sufficient for my understanding.
BuzzFeed News produces pretty good news reports. It's not the same as BuzzFeed proper.
I suspect (I'm a non-obese non-smoker) that far more obese non-smokers get winded by walking such a distance than non-obese smokers, at least until they're fairly old. Also, in walkable cities, I see quite a few smokers but much fewer obese people. If we're talking about hiking hills, it balances out a bit more, although I think the obese would still be at a disadvantage. Losing some of your lung capacity doesn't matter too much until you do intense exercise, but obese people always have to expend extra effort to carry their weight around.
The MAGA teens story has showed that it's not like "reputable" sources have any accountability, rigor, or seriousness.
It's the same with DevOps. There are very few books and thousands of articles. I'm slowly trying to filter and categorize them so they can be reviewed and summarized, because only a few people will ever read these things and the information won't get to regular people.
I think the news cycle has to do with the quality of news as well. Sometimes it's just impossible to get the proper facts within the first 24h of breaking news. This is why I read weekly periodicals.

One of the most famous "legal hacks", Richard Stallman's copyleft, had to be rewritten by a lawyer. rms wrote GPLv1 by himself and you should never use it. GPLv2 is the version that was actually vetted by a lawyer.

A similar thing happened with Perl's Artistic License. Its version 2 is basically also a lawyer-approved rewrite.

In other words, hackers, don't try this at home. There are professionals who can do this for you.
Couldn't agree more. Not sure why the task of operating DNS' isn't the domain of governments the world over. It's kind of like operating a post office. Post office's are the ones who have the routing information and capability to route physical messages and packages. They are still operated on a for profit model, but they are also generally very well regulated. Same thing should apply with registrars

I find it helps when I consider the tests to be part of the code. If I need to change existing functionality, of course I'll need to change the tests so they test the new requirement(s). If I'm adding new functionality I add new tests to test the new requirement, but I shouldn't break any of the old tests when I do that. If I'm changing code with no requirements changes (as in, pure refactoring, not "tidying up as part of new feature development"), all the existing tests need to pass unchanged...

I want a service where I can subscribe to journalists not news papers. I want to know that they are getting a portion of my subscription and being successful. I want 0 advertising in this news paper.

Where do I get it? Is this something we need to create? I'd love a fact check o meter on each journalist as well, but I think that'd be very open to bias, so I don't know how that'd happen.

Anyway, I don't subscribe to newspapers because I don't like their model, not because I don't want to support the journalist. I have no clue if I'm missing a massive part of how the newspapers actually front a lot of money to make journalism better by paying expenses for journalists. I'm no expert on the ins and outs of journalism. I just see a lot of crap reporting that doesn't hold water and I'm tired of reading op-ed pieces falsely labeled as journalism.

In what way is NYT not an independent news source? It's not owned by some giant media conglomerate, it's family owned. And last I checked it was one of few media companies reporting good financial results, not cutting costs.
What if we had a way to signify that an article or a publication meets a certain set of journalistic standards (sourcing, fact checking, no opinions, etc.), such that violating those standards would result in a fine.

Then it might be easier for a casual reader to differentiate between journalism and opinion.

I think any commercial enterprise that thrives on eyeballs will always have a perverse incentive to be "interesting"/sensational to one demographic or another.

Yeah, we work on this issue all the time as well and see all of these solutions (and others). I agree that (A) definitely feels like sessions. However, I disagree that (C) is error prone. Here are answers to your questions on (C) plus how FusionAuth does it:

> what if your webhook doesn't get processed quickly enough?

I'm assuming you mean at the edges. This is possible, but if you are on the same backplane, highly unlikely since our solution is simply inserting an int into a Hash. Even if it isn't backplane, then you still can retry. Think of session caches as the same situation, so really no difference if you have a distributed cache for (A). Also, FusionAuth provides configurable timeouts and transactions for Webhooks. This covers most failure cases.

> What if your client breaks and stops being able to accept webhooks?

I'm assuming you mean "service" rather than "client" since we want the services to know a JWT has been revoked. I'd say this should hopefully mean that the service is also not accepting API requests. If it is, then you will have issues. However, this is a failure case no matter what. Similarly, the client breaks and stops validating the JWT in (A), you are in the same situation. Plus, FusionAuth provides transactional Webhooks, so you can retry and protect against failures.

> What if the webhook server stops firing or gets overloaded?

Since FusionAuth is the Webhook event generator and the IdP, if it stops, you got bigger issues. :)

In terms of overloading, we protect against event backlogs and failures pretty well. We can also shut the entire node down if needed to prevent any API calls. This is a bit brute force, but if you are in #3 for security, turning everything off is better than a breach.

I've seen misquotes in articles on CNN and MSNBC after having just watched the live video on youtube or C-SPAN. Some of them seemed purposeful to fit the journalists narrative, and at least with CNN could not find any official channel for submitting errors.
that and they often invite a pseudo expert that supports the narrative they want to push for.
In safari, when you enter terms into the search bar, the "google suggestions" is separate from "siri knowledge" or "siri suggested website" which they surface at the top. It looks like Apple generates that independent of google
80% of the article is unrelated images and self-promotion but some of the content is quite good.
100% which makes me nervous about reporting in areas I'm not familiar with.

Many people I know who have been interviewed said something to the effect that "newspapers twist words to fit their angle". They also happened to be in positions of power, so it's hard for me to tell if they simply wanted to control the narrative and the newspaper wasn't going along for the ride it if the newspaper was the one with the hidden agenda. Probably a mix of both.
I have this idea I share over and over again because I'm not in a position to pursue it. Usually it gets ignored and every once in a while someone says it's brilliant so here's hoping.

Crowd source investigative reporting. Focus on supporting the reporter instead of the news network. Build a system that creates a reputation for the reporter and a mechanism to crowd source news that the general public is interested in.

I could go on, but then there would be more text for you to read. I guess I could add that cryptocurrencies and blockchain would be useful technologies in a tool like this. (reputation tracking and crowdsourcing)
The NYT isn't independent in the sense that they're literally saying "pay us". This article is literally self promotion.

Here's Apple's Enterprise terms definition of "Permitted Users":

“Permitted Users” means employees and contractors of Your Permitted Entity who have written
and binding agreements with You or Your Permitted Entity to protect Your Internal Use
Application from unauthorized use in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

If the research panel subjects were under a written agreement to only use the app in the manner it was intended – such as keeping aspects of its use confidential, or disabling it when other non-compensated others were using their devices – doesn't that match the definition? Or are you claiming some other "circular" bootstrapping of extra fuzzy limitations on what "Permitted Users" are?
The larger manufacturers (Altendorf, Felder) probably have videos. Marius Hornberger has a really cute Felder saw and shows some stuff.

Jigs are normally mounted to the sliding table (which has T-slots for this), which pretty much constrains both jig and workpiece to a single degree of freedom. (And if you clamp the workpiece to the jig you can guide the cut with one hand on the sliding table and still have another hand free to support e.g. a long workpiece that's mounted vertically -- and both hands stay well clear of the saw blade).

Basic operation would be e.g.

- having a panel with one straight edge, cutting a panel of given dimensions with square and straight edges out of it. Straight edge goes against the cross-cut fence that's mounted on the sliding table, first cut, turn 90° and use stop on the cross-cut fence (they usually have two independent stops) to cut it to width, turn 90°, cut to height.

- Rough sawn lumber with live edge, clamp it to the table, trim live edge off, use rip fence to trim the other side off.

- Unlike a miter gauge / cross-cut slider on a normal table saw, the sliding table can be used together with the rip fence safely. This makes it very easy and safe to rip narrow strips from a wide panel or board. This also makes it easy to e.g. cross-cut square-ish things off a board or panel, something which is pretty much impossible to do safely on a normal table saw. The rip fence on an F45 goes to well over a meter, so if you have many parts with the same length this is a real time saver.

- There are very accurate miter gauges that use fixed stops to mount to the sliding table (e.g. Altendorf Duplex). These allow to cut "into" the miter in both directions with basically perfect accuracy + repeatability (even when removing the jig from the table, as long as you don't touch the stops on it, it will cut the same miter when re-mounted). All miters I have ever made on the Duplex came out perfect, except a few that I screwed up during glue up.

- For edge mitering using the swivel-function of the blade works very nicely because even older models have digital readouts which are accurate enough that you can set them to 45.0° and get a perfect joint. Some never saws can swivel the blade in both directions (+45° and -45°). Swivel and cut depth are adjusted by foot-pedal (which I think is pneumatic) or electrically.

- Some rip fences can go to a few centimeters negative, zero included, which means you can use the saw as a sort of big flush cutter.

Scales are adjustable and use magnifying readouts, (mirror) vernier scales or are digital. When adjusted correctly, they're very accurate and repeatable. Rip fence on an Altendorf has a fine adjustment that works after clamping, so no measurement change due to tightening the clamping.

Overall it's just very nice to work with because you don't have to move the workpiece around by yourself, and when using the rip fence you're always standing a good bit off to the side.
If we're lucky.
> you entered in a contract with the app developer

... wat? No, I didn't. It's easy to imagine I "must have", but in fact there's no signature, no negotiation nor in many cases any consideration.

Ah, but you say: I must have signed a contract to use the app store that I downloaded the app from, and that must constrain me to honor the terms of the app that I downloaded, which is constrained by Apple's contract with the developer.

Except, no, I didn't do that either. The whole thing is a house of cards. There is absolutely no principle behind this regime, it's just something we've all come to accept because it's technically possible and because "usually" the power granted to hardware vendors hasn't been abused.

But it has bad side effects too, and it's really important that we as a community not lose sight of the fact that locked down devices are really, really bad.
> ..., held to objective professional and ethical standards laid out by journalist organizations?

In other words you are looking for journalists who are good at winning prizes from their peers. But this risks becoming a self-contained system where journalists are "reputable" because they parrot what other "reputable" journalists think.

If IronWolve pays for journalism from sites that strike him as being thorough and trustworthy, then IronWolve's own judgement is as (small) exogenous contribution to the system.

Of course it is also possible that IronWolve is a fool who pays for foolish journalism. But if so, then that's his problem.
Paying Firestore user here.

1. Disappointing that it has gone to GA without providing proper search (after a long beta). Can anybody explain why a service run by the worlds #1 search company continues to point users to third party services if you want to implement a basic text search in a database? I genuinely don't understand that.

2. Feature requests (or complaints) re backup, queries and documentation are not new. Nor are the answers (or excuses) we see here, which revolve around scalability and (until now) being in beta. BUT all users I have ever heard say they use the product for speed & ease of setup & convenience - for MVPs, not for massive googlesque data. It almost feels like the product market fit is not quite right. So, forgive my technical ignorance here, but worst case scenario, why not provide the features with the caveat that they are slow or expensive or won't work above a certain size of db? Isn't half a solution better than no solution?

The database and whole Google/Firebase app suite thing has some strong points. But to be frank, and I'm sorry if I'm being dismissive of hard work and technical wonders here, from the perspective of a customer and outside observer, a number of things smell quite off.
> Paying does not stop people from lying to you, as long as there is interest in it.

But if you don't pay someone to go out into the world and do the labor-intensive work of investigating the truth, you'll certainly get lies written from the comfort of someone's desk.

Lies and opinion are much cheaper to produce than accurate factual reporting, since there's less overhead.
I do, broadly, agree with the sentiment. I pay for The Economist, The Financial Times, and the Australian Financial Review. Plus I read BBC and Thompson Routers regularly.
If there's something particularly contentious I'll have a look at what the Guardian is saying about it to try and get an alternative perspective.

There's definitely a huge bias in almost all news sources. The Economist explicitly states their position on matters, The Financial Times and AFR are much more implicit. The BBC does pretty well on sticking to facts, but now they're appending their stories with opinion pieces from editors.

TR does do a very good job of simply fact reporting.

I can't name many journalists off by heart. I'd like stories (or writers) to be rated based on quality (the way StackExchange does with answers) so that I never have to see the chuff. I don't care if the content comes from a trained journalist or a blogger who happens to be a subject matter expert.

it is an Op-Ed. Is someone in the newspapers/media business not allowed to have an opinion about their business?
"I'm just incredibly baffled by what you're proposing the solution is if its not a cultural shift towards paying for content?"

I am not in the news business. Nor am I am in the diesel motor business. It is not my task to suggest solutions to a changing business environment. The NYC can now, thanks to the internet, deliver its content to a world wide audience. A paywall can be easily established. I pay for good news (e.g. "The Economist"). For institutions like the NYT or "The Economist" it would take quite some skill to screw this up. The market may move into "the winners take it all" direction.

I agree that free news is a problem to many newspapers. Fake news are another problem. But solutions like screaming for government subsidiaries (e.g. in Germany) or getting fees from google or facebook are not solutions. Taxing eCars to pay employees that produced diesel engines to save jobs is not a solution either.
