>The Stalman's of the world seem farther and farther apart, or perhaps just the internet has become so monetized that the best talent just can't refuse the $$$s from a FANG job that focuses on crushing the competition and owning everything.

This is so important. Seriously, how many MIT/Berkeley/CMU/Stanford/etc. grads are wasting their insane talent tweaking news feed, advertising and recommendation algorithms. It's truly sad.
I've done a bit of editing in kdenlive, and it's by far the best open source video editor I've come across.
And it hasn't really changed since 2016 so that is still mostly spot on.

I think the real problem though is that people aren't good at remembering voice commands, either how to invoke the command or that the command even exists. Without visual cues it's easy to forget everything.

You're not going to have a runaway hit when it's predicated on everyone remembering that special thing to say. It's like trying to have a runaway hit that had to be based on a keyboard shortcut.

All of those services are great for the basics, e.g. How's the weather / set a timer / remind me in N minutes / order toilet paper ... Everything else is a bit tougher in my opinion.

The author is nitpicking. Warren may be wrong about the history of bing and google, but that's not really important. She's 100% right about Amazon, and the author conveniently forgot to mention.

Most people in tech industry always strive to build monopoly and dominance. In their eyes, Warren's idea is of course insane. But viewing from another point, in order to protect competition and small businesses, her proposal is mostly sound. The concept of "Platform Utility" may seem arbitrary, but actually a very helpful check and balance.

The perfect solution is that the platform should be run like an open blockchain, trouble is no one has a clue how to build it yet.

Actually, it does negate the existence of two discrete categories of people that you can ascribe intrinsic biological differences to. You'll always have to delineate the categories at some arbitrary point, and since the delineation is arbitrary, you'll therefore never be sure if your categories are correct.

I have slightly less data than the free limit and I'm getting a popup urging me to switch to the paid version almost constantly. I don't even bother to close it anymore, so it just sits there in the corner blocking a part of my screen.
There is. It's called dukto (http://www.msec.it/blog/?page_id=11), and works on mac, linux, windows and android. It will use zeroconf to automatically find all duktos on the local network, and let you send stuff to them in a blink.

Tiktok is very exploitative.

Teenage girls seekin attention through showing skin and acting provocative is nothing new, but tiktok is amplifying it to hitherto unseen levels. Some of these girls have multiple millions of followers while their content is mostly repetitive uninspired lipsyncing while gyrating the bottom or flapping the chestbags.

Tiktok has a face-narrowing filter enabled by default; it makes your jaw look much more narrow and gives you a pointy chin, making you look younger and more attractive. It cant be turned off afaik.

The hordes of predominantly male followers donate significant amount of money, of course. Tiktok takes its cut, of course. What % do you think it is? It's not 2-5% like most donating platforms. It's not even the high 30% like in app stores.

It is 50%. Tiktok takes half of every donation. It takes advantage of underage girls, pimps them out and dangles their sexuality in front of the viewers, and skins them for half of everything they get.
I’ve been using namecheaps free DNS work in recent weeks and it propagated super quickly (2 or 3 minutes, I used a dns checker to see and various hosts around the globe all saw the changes).

For my own stuff, I use digitalocean for hosting so use their nameservers for DNS.

I got to eat at one of the NYC locations (there are three) last year, specifically the one on Fifth Avenue, and it was fantastic. Best ramen I've had in my life. Very much on the rich-and-flavorful side.
Since it's encrypted end to end, presumably they will be oblivious to all that stuff?
Our platform is free for the beta users to try it with limit of 2GB per model. We are just starting and we haven't decided on our business model yet.

If a user downloads panini to their private server and use it that will always be free since there is not infrastructure cost for us. If you're deploying it in our website we will be charging you to pay for the infrastracture cost.

Our main goal currently is to find out if people find this product useful and if it's worth for us to spend more time working on it. Thanks for watching the YouTube tutorial and if you have further questions, please contact us. Thanks
Dollars are the international reserve currency, like it or not (and believe me, Russia and China don't and are trying to change it). But for now, that means dollars are the most convenient form for buyers and sellers, typically.

Also, if the currency is of lower value, they get paid more. Example being the English pound is of a higher denomination than a dollar, but whether it's "worth more" is dictated by purchasing power, relative movement over time, etc.

Mosra has put a lot of nice work into what is roughly a Doxygen theme (I'm not certain, but AFAIR it technically builds from the XML output and isn't a true drop-in replacement for the default theme), m.css, which you can see in action at https://doc.magnum.graphics/magnum/ and https://mcss.mosra.cz/doxygen/

These demonstrate, I think, that Doxygen isn't irredeemable--but the exception does also highlight that the ecosystem has some tendencies that aren't great :)
Reading her stuff, it seems like proposals to separate Apple from the App store indicate a total lack of awareness about InfoSec, and at best a poorly researched policy proposal from a technical standpoint. The only reason the App Store isn't a simmering cesspool of malware is that Apple heavily moderates what gets on there, and Google does somewhat the same. That doesn't mean that there perhaps isn't a less MSFT + IE type of solution, and I don't necessarily disagree with her, but her not mentioning that sort of nuance at all makes it rather clear the policy doesn't extend too far into anything more than populism.

I think your idea of the environment in Israel is a bit different than my experience there.

There are plenty of cross-platform local file transfer tools available but they all require manual setup and some knowledge of networking. If "without going through the internet" is a requirement, I don't think an easier and secure tool could be made better than what's already available.

I have similar experience as other commenters, tried TikTok, found it very boring and silly. But then I tried the original, Chinese version (Douyin) and the quality of the content there is so much better than TikTok.

You can actually see a lot of gifs right now on reddit being taken straight from Douyin because that's where cool/fun stuff is being created.

To compare with Vine - by not having time limit, I was able to see the 30sec video of how too cook one of the Chinese dishes, or 1 minute video of a metal welder creating one of his metal sculptures.

It's extremly addictive I think, because content might be realy short or quite-but-not-too long.

I'm trying to say in a roundabout way that Douyin content is miles ahead of TikTok content. I haven't seen too much of the TikTok's girls seeking attention content issue.
When cargo cult thinking applies to organizational structure, it's called mimetic isomorphism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mimetic_isomorphism. There's nothing inherently fake about that, but contextual factors might make it inappropriate, whether or not the raison d'etre of a particular org structure is understood by the participants.

Art institutions in peripheral cities are often victims of mimetic isomorphism. They try to emulate what institutions in major art centres are doing, but without the supporting thick soup of intellectual and artistic talent.

I'm going to respond to myself - but so far so good. I just ingested ~14B messages into a local instance, on top of an existing Elastic.

Interestingly enough - and to Amazon's credit, the have SSL running by default, with a default admin password. Our (soon to be old) solution to this was to run nginx in front of Elastic - and do another bunch of things with stunnel for balancing. I'm happy to see default encryption.

Pretty happy to start!
True, but that’s part of the risk equation of deciding to go for a monoculture in the first place (as with most business choices). There are benefits (ease of maintenance and training highest) that need to be judged against potential problems (like in this case where a model is grounded).
The 737-800 is part of the 737 "NG" series and does not have the MCAS (Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System). This is a feature of the MAX series which has been implicated in the Lion Air crash:

This article is about the massacre in Vendee, which was a particularly nasty chapter in the already nasty French Revolution. I feel that 'genocide' is the whole word for what happened because the peasants in Vendee were just as French as the revolutionaries they revolted against; they were not some distinct ethnicity.
Probably my idea is, but I also mean meet, not just walking by or nodding politely or whatever in the grocery store.

One of my coworkers has a friend named Siri. When Apple's siri first came out somehow she kept getting texts from friends "remind me tuesday to call the doctor". She didn't realize what was happening so she kept track of those reminders and texted her friends back until everyone sorted their technology out.

My local airport (Halifax YHZ) has notoriously bad landing conditions, and around a year ago I was in a 767 that aborted its landing and went back around. Turns out (at least as far as I've been able to tell from Wikipedia etc.) that the entire aborted landing sequence is activated in one step by the pilot and the plane does all the multiple complicated things it needs to do (change thrust, trim, flaps, etc.) mostly by itself. How that would work with bad sensors is a separate question - although presumably by this point in a flight you'd know what's up with your sensors one way or another.

Worked at a bank for a year on a greenfield project. They had walls painted in primary colors, an open workspace (for some employees), and typical bullshittery like 8 hour hack-a-thons which output directly into the trash bin. The main issue with working there: it's the Dead Sea. No one is interested in working. They're interested in retaining control of their domain. As a result, nothing gets done. We spent a year integrating with two systems. The data we aggregated was never used.

Controversial opinion warning, and I would love to hear some counterpoints outside of my thought bubble.

I've never understood the appeal of Debian or Ubuntu, or I guess I don't understand why people would invest so much time in them compared to Fedora and Redhat. In actual buisness dealings Redhat has always led the way in enterprise (whole data centers), kernel development (a bunch of the maintainers work for them and they lead efforts like cgroups v2), and other highly technical pieces of the ecosystem, including acquiring all of the start developers (such as the systemd folks). Investing in Redhat is an investment into a deeper understanding of LInux through their excellent documentation and well paying positions through their famously good certifications.

There is of course a lot of debian and ubunutu out there in small deployments, usually individuals, small buisnesses, and education, but they are ultimately less lucrative and more oriented towards beginners/hobbyists. At least Ubuntu used to be. I'm not really sure who the target audience of debian is.

I've also never understood the appeal of .deb or apt, or what debians end goal is. They never seem to be doing anything that interesting except grinding away at repackaging everything. Canonical is just flailing to find some sort of niche and historically (Ubuntu phone, Mir, Open Stack, Upstart, probably snap) they are incredibly bad at finding relevance. I think having multiple packaging ecosystems is the stupidest idea in the world, and don't see the value add except giving people the illusion of more choices.

I don't think that is a fair assumption because it's very common for people to set up WiFi on their phone. In fact you'll often find some platforms will not download OS updates or warn you against downloading larger "apps" when not connected via WiFi.
Then you understand "How do they handle abuse though? Like, people using it to host, say, pirated TV shows?" remains an open question.
I'm a pretty avid tiktok user as I like to keep up with what the youth are into. It has a great video editor and allows its users to create some really interesting content. I CONSTANTLY have tiktok sound samples stuck in my head all day long.

The issues where it hurts is INSANE data usage and the fact that you basically need headphones to use it. Audio is so important to the experience and coupled with the data usage, it is hard to get lost in the app when not in private/wifi. Even with those 2 restrictions, it gets more eye time from me than instagram/snap chat and facebook combined.

It does tend to track to a younger age group, but many of those users were on the app when it was still musically, showing some real power to keep a userbase year over year. And then you have a ton of users who came to it once vine collapsed.

It is the only social media app that I use where I don't know anyone IRL that I follow. I think that is a big distinction from all the other big players.
First, a side note: this article seems to do a lot of lauding of her game on the basis that she's a woman designing a board game. Granted, this is not an industry with a large % of women in design roles, but it's definitely not some revolutionary role she's taking on, and the article definitely makes her seem like she's taking on the industry alone.

As for the game: It definitely looks interesting enough -- Very similar to "Evolution", but with a lot more stats that are tracked.

I found some quotes in the article that I took umbrage with as well, pointing to them overly lauding her:

> [...] some gamers scratched their heads and said, “Birds? Really!?” They expressed concern that our feathered friends might not resonate with a community usually drawn to zombies, dragons, spaceships, farming, civilizations and (of course) trains.

We have board games about some of the most banal possible topics, and they are some of the best ones out there, and this isn't even the first game like this (see my comment about Evolution). Also, in that list of "things gamers like", some of those things are not like the others, and serve as perfect examples that esoteric or "boring" topics still make gamers play a game if the game using the topic is a good one. Seems like they cherry picked the few people who had a negative reaction to subject matter -- After seeing the offerings at GenCon last year, I can say that most board game enthusiasts care very little in the end about the topic, and much more about enjoyable gameplay and interesting mechanics.

> It offers numerous paths to victory (the Holy Grail in game design) without inducing “analysis paralysis.”

I am not a board game designer, but I am a very big enthusiast and have played LOTS of different games. This does not strike me as a "Holy Grail in game design". This is pretty much an expectation for any reasonably complex board game coming out these days. I can think of plenty of examples that satisfy this criteria, and have for years.

In the end, I'm sure it's probably a great game -- it definitely seems to hit on lots of things popular games use these days, and it seems like it was made to still be approachable despite its depth behind the scenes, but this article does a pretty awful job representing the game in favor of trying to elevate the designer to a status that she really doesn't fit in, let alone need to succeed. The game is already successful. Let her credentials ride on that, not on her gender.
