Sorry, I might not have been clear. My point was more that there was never a point in YT's where Youtube's moderation policy was part of a decision for an uploader to go there instead of some other platform (excluding some edge cases like gov't dissidents in certain countries)

The implication of the original post was that YT's growth was in part thanks to some moderation policy that made it more attractive than alternatives. But to my understanding this was never the case, and YT's growth was from a bunch of other things. Including it basically being the only reliable option for a good part of its early life (how I remember things)
A detail not mentioned here was that (if I remember correctly) they initially ate an all-muscle-meat diet and had real problems; it was only after they included a lot of organ meat (imitating the Inuit) that things stabilized. I think eating liver can get you enough Vitamin C, for example.
Can't the recursion be implemented explicitly with Stack data structure? (if it's possible to have/implement the stack in COBOL, not sure).
Let me put it this way: the last time the link was posted, I pointed out many serious problems with the impression it gives. Now, if the same link is posted again with no disclaimer, then either:

1. You don't think the mentioned problems are serious,

or

2. You agree there are serious problems but don't care and will just post it anyway.

Not sure which one it is, but it doesn't cost much to add a simple disclaimer (or at least link to the original articles). Else as long as I have the energy (and notice it) I'll keep trying to correct the misunderstandings it's likely to lead to.
I’m curious how other mammals, which are essentially purely carnivorous, get their vitamins and minerals. Presumably they’re similar enough to us that they’d require similar amounts?

Hi,thanks for this fast ad-block software.
After I give it a try,it does not provide an option let me subscribe easylist or something like that.Then I open a website,lots of ads are still there,right click on ad image,there is no option to remove them.

From a user opinion,it may not ready for everyday using.
You mean precious lives of Americans.

From my experience, most of the August/September signings are return offers or chance encounters for people’s “dream” company, which they are happy to accept even if it limits their options. I think the bulk of internship hiring at large companies happens in November/December.
Any “working” quantitative trading strategy available publicly will be arbitraged and stop being effective. Look for quantitative strategies that no longer work, study them, figure out why they don’t work, how they may have been arbitraged, and whether arbitrage created a new inefficiency that you could leverage.
The biggest problem with Microsoft is them not sticking to their strength. I was an avid fanboy till Windows 7. This was an OS that could cater to power users- keyboard shortcuts, powershell (shitty console but anyway).

They started running after the touch segment and deliberately removed the keyboard interface. They didn't get the app-buyers and the keyboard people (like me) probably left them.

Linux is mature now, onedrive has replacements and I can use the web-interface of onenote or the full interface with dual-booting. So I don't need Windows as a developer anymore.

I know Satya Nadella directly or indirectly monitors this board and I know this wasn't his doing but remember when Mr ballmer (the same guy who let this stupidity happen) chanted developers, it was for a reason- if you don't cater to power users and developers your platform will not see apps and then you lose regular users too.

I say this personally too- I had a Windows specific app Idea that I had to drop because Windows was unusable for me. I know MS gets a lot of 'hate' and irresponsible advice so they probably just ignore most so called suggestions but I am being honest, I really want to use Windows, I genuinely think that Macs are overrated and Linux has an app problem- but I cannot. I can offer one terse advice- don't force stuff on people. Give them options. That was Windows's biggest strenght
Here's alan cox saying what I've been trying to say, from https://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=151503218808512&w=2:

> If you read the papers you need a very specific construct in order to not
only cause a speculative load of an address you choose but also to then
manage to cause a second operation that in some way reveals bits of data
or allows you to ask questions.

> BPF allows you to construct those sequences relatively easily and it's
the one case where a user space application can fairly easily place code
it wants to execute in the kernel. Without BPF you have to find the right
construct in the kernel, prime all the right predictions and measure the
result without getting killed off. There are places you can do that but
they are not so easy and we don't (at this point) think there are that
many.

> The same situation occurs in user space with interpreters and JITs,hence
the paper talking about javascript. Any JIT with the ability to do timing
is particularly vulnerable to versions of this specific attack because
the attacker gets to create the code pattern rather than have to find it.

---

> big deal with spectre is the high bandwidth that can be attained by directly running code in process

That depends on your perspective. If you are an OS developer who strives to guarantee process isolation, than it is a pretty big deal that spectre v1 allows you to read memory from the kernel or from other processes, even if it might be tricky to do so. If you write a JS JIT, then yeah you are probably most concerned about the single-process case.

> remotely practical

IMO, most spectre attacks are not remotely practical. No, I don't have a pointer. The only actual demonstrations of spectre I've seen is the one included with the original paper (single process).
That still does not help against the GP's problem. The most practical – yet totally ridiculous – solution in 2019 is still: for each end user, for each browser, to delete all pre-trusted CAs, and reenable them one-by-one trust-on-first-use. In a few days to weeks, the user ends up with around six active CAs that are actually in use, instead of dozens inactive ones that are just a backdoor waiting to happen.
This is an interesting perspective. It's probably unknown if it's too much or too little without some serious scientific investigation. What do you base your opinion on?

Those days never existed. The US offered opportunities, not guarantees.
I wasn't making an argument either way about retracting messages. I was just surprised that someone would think that the DMs are obviously like e-mail when the UI looks like FB Messenger or Hangouts and message storage and transmission is controlled by a single company. I'm still curious to know how it's like e-mail.

> Russia is preparing a nation-wide experiment where the whole country temporarily disconnects from the global Internet to see if the country can rely on Runet alone

I think this is lie, fake news and misinformation. I tried to find the source of it. Lots of site quote RBC website (more or less respectful news agency in Russia). The closest article on this subject is this:

https://www.rbc.ru/technology_and_media/08/02/2019/5c5c51069...

It discusses this topic but doesn’t mention experiments or temporary disconnect. Could be redacted though.
There are reasons, why not to do that:

1) DF doesn't add up like that at low concentrations. Then it comes down to selectivity of the material. Sodium and cesium have similar chemical characteristics, but CsTreat is very efficient in selecting Cs over Na.

2) Material you are using as filter becomes radioactive waste. You want to keep the volume at minimum.

3) With CsTreat you already reach radioactive Cs levels below measurable limit. There is no reason to try to remove more Cs from that water :)
There are simply too many people all using the same system for that style of interaction to scale :(.
How’s the quality of the companies that show up? I’ve often seen that “good” companies are less like to show up for Spring career fairs.
But they still don't pay the full fare. They are atrociously high so that they can be heavily discounted, especially when it comes to corporate contracts.

Are you suggesting that the anti-nuclear crowd does? What I've seen is that most anti-nuclear people are mostly driven by emotion in a one-sided way (such as not accounting for the environmental and real human cost of oil, gas, coal).
>Obviously death comes for us all, but I would bet we don’t see as much of it first hand as we used to.

What do you mean by 'we'?

I don't know what you are trying to say. A very large percentage of the population encounters death on a regular basis.

Don't take this the wrong way, but your odd view on the subject evidences an amusing self-centeredness. Enjoy your youth. But, keep in mind that your conception of 'we' is hilariously far narrower than you realize.

I would start with the Foundation trilogy first (Foundation,
Foundation and Empire, Second Foundation). Foundation for me was a perfect book. I don't remember if I finished the robot series though, and the books looking at Wiki, have a ton of content continuing on the original universe. I mean if I started at episode I of Star Wars I never would have made it to episode IV.
One of my favorite things about Asimov in general is that he is overall optimistic about the future, some of his short stories are really good too, a time-traveling Shakespeare one stuck out for me.
This is purely for my own curiosity but did you try electroshock? It seems to have no effect on some people but work wonders for others.
You mean like the model that exists for US universities? No thank you. I had quite a good experience with the public higher education system in Europe, and would want as many people as possible to be able to participate in it as well. Education should not be limited to wealthy people, and pretending that offering soul and finance crushing debt opportunities can counteract that imbalance is naive at best and malicious at worst.

I am done discussing with you. The viewpoints that you have presented so far seem shortsighted and detrimental to society to me. Luckily, you are unlikely to have any effect on standing law.
Woaaaw, thank you very much for having taken time to go inside the code and for starting these new ways. I have no more excuse to say "Well, there is a life out of closure and I don't mind because my lambdas are de facto partially applicable, etc ..."

I have now a lot of work to implement closure in {lambda talk}. Maybe I can do that.

Thank you again.
Wait WTF how does that even work? The guy picked up the painting while an entire crowd was looking at it, and proceeded to walk away... That's Borat level absurdity.
I call bullshit. Go to any grocery store in Italy and the prices range from 1 to 7 euros for a 250 g pack, go to a local roaster and you can go up to 10, yet the cup of espresso is always 0.80-1.20 euros. Why is that? Given the amount of coffee that goes in a cup, the price of that is negligible while you pay for location, service etc.

So given these considerations, as an Italian if I pay more than 3 euros for a coffee I expect:

* to be served in a bone china cup

* to be served by a polite waiter

* to be sitting at an outdoors table with view of some major monument

* to have a glass of mineral water and a small cookie come with it

(As an aside I once had a coffee at one of those fancier Starbucks in the US, it was 4 dollars + tax and honestly not very good)

(and I'm not going to get started on a rant on the sheer cultural colonialism and appropriation that goes with what you just said)

It is not about systems that can "do" basic arithmetic but that can "talk about" basic arithmetic.

The mere execution of basic arithmetic does not require the capability of manipulating propositions of basic arithmetic.

Doing basic arithmetic:

12 * ( 5 + 8 ) --> 12 * 13 --> 156

Talking about basic arithmetic:

a * ( b + c ) == a * b + a * c

The formal language needed to describe basic arithmetic is much more powerful than a simple execution engine, such as a stack engine, that can merely carry out basic arithmetic.

For example, I must be able to express that for all natural numbers x and y, if x = y, then y = x. The result could look like this:

∀ x,y ∈ N: x=y ⇔ y=x

Hence, this language must be able to express all Dedekind-Peano's axioms as well as every proposition provable from these axioms, along with their formal proofs.

In that sense, the Gödel numbering system is the "bytecode" of quite a serious programming (or at least, specification) language. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6del_numbering)
We don't have adequate wartime data to know for sure one way or the other. Historically, there has only been one underwater combat engagement between submarines [1] openly acknowledged (there might be classified engagements). However, even generously accounting for all submarine lost at sea accident reports as hostile engagements doesn't yield sufficient numbers of engagements to know what would happen with today's subs between each other in open warfare.

Let's hope it stays that way indefinitely.

I've heard the term jaywalking a few times (with a dispiseful tone) and looked it up now. the concept doesnt even make sense to me. here the 'weaker' have precedence over the 'stronger'. plus there's always the 'vertrauensgrundsatz' (principle of reliance) that states that you have to rely on others to behave correct (except children), but as soon as they give you a sign that this might not be the case it's _your_ duty to compensate. man I'm glad not to live in the land of the free.....
That was my first question too after reading the blog post. It looks like mods can delete posts, but users can undelete them if they want.
IIRC some relatively recent polls in the US showed that a signifant proportion of Americans didn't trust atheists or something to that effect. It was mentioned in that stupid documentary that Pinker did about atheism.
So Ghostery benchmarks and is the fastest? Fine. But Ghostery does not belong in that test at all. Of course it can be faster. It misses a lot of the most important features! Like custom lists. Totally an ad.

Don't know where you've been getting taxis, but they were literally one of the worst services anywhere I've ever been to. Prague: ton of documented defrauding of customers, taxi drivers making little money otherwise, fights over stations, literally mafia stuff. London: You know how everyone is lovely and polite, say in restaurants? Not so in London taxis, you'd hardly get a hello, drivers would always purposefully drive you as long as possible to make the most amount of money, etc etc

The sites that display ads, wants to make sure ad blockers can't block them.

Currently both sides adapt, if the way it works is locked down ad blockers quickly will become obsolete.

For example a whole ago most sites were creating popups with ads, after it became bad, browsers started blocking popups, initially by only displaying then when user actively clicks. So sites started opening a popup when user made a first click anywhere on the page, eventually browsers started blocking all popups and just notifying user that popup was triggered, giving them choice whether they want to see it.

This solved the old pop-ups, but because of that a new popups were created, that use CSS to show it within browser window covering the text. In addition to that, the CSS layers were used to implement other attention grabbing mechanisms, like ad that stays in place even when you scroll, or suddenly ad appears between text etc.

This was targeted by ad blockers, which constantly adapt. Most ads are served from different domains, since typically the ad content is provided by different company, but increasingly we see ads being served from the same domain as rest of the website, or website randomizes CSS component id etc.

What chromium authors are doing is to instead provide API for ad blockers to use and list their rules and let the browser do the blocking. Supposedly that's to improve performance. The problem with it is that it will essentially fix adblockers in one place, they no longer will be able to adapt, eventually new kind of ads will start to show up, that adblockers won't be able to block. And now with other changes that Google successfully pushed, such as https everywhere, http/2 and http/3 is nearly impossible to block ads through a proxy.

This is why I personally prefer to stick with a Firefox.
My 8 year likes to chat in Roblox. Lots of the games are sort of a surrogate open world / chatroom type deal.

Driving 180mph in a residential area is not permitted in most jurisdictions.

You can decide not to care about the opinion of the legislative bodies that came up with those rule (and tell them to "go F themselves"). You can be the best driver and 100% certain that driving 180mph at this particular moment does not pose any danger. If you get caught, you are still in serious trouble.

The reason is simply that people have determined that, in most cases, driving 180mph in a residential area is not a good idea. Most probable situations where it might be a good idea, e.g. if you are doing it while driving an ambulance, are already accounted for. Not every such situation is covered by an exception, but the alternative of letting people drive 180mph in residential areas and sort it out for themselves does not work out.

If you want to live outside of society, in an anarchy where anything goes as long as two parties consent to it, you're free to move to there.

Choosing to block 8.8.8.8 for devices in your own home is neither censorship nor breaking the free and open nature of the internet. It is baffling how you could imagine it is.

It is in fact strange that a device that facilitates streaming from a variety of servers needs to resolve a particular dns server to function. Its obvious that it should need to resolve SOME dns server to function but not a particular one.

Clearly it can't update if it can't talk to google but why shouldn't it be able to play local content or stream netflix without talking to a particular google IP?

We have a national network in Germany. It’s called girocard and has debit cards only. You get one from your bank by default for every checking account. Transaction fees are very low at ~0.25%. They double as an ATM card and are usually co-branded with either Maestro or V-Pay so you can use them internationally.

Of course they’re not perfect and are often behind MC/Visa when it comes to new features like contactless, tokenization, etc., but it’s still a great little system.
