> Please don’t apply these steps to non-technical people’s browsers. They will result in an endless litany of broken banking websites, annoying support calls, memory issues, and in general a terrible user experience for others.

I apply these solutions on a shared laptop, but I do so precisely because it shouldn't be used for things like banking. It doesn't get heavily used for web browsing anyway, and having these extensions installed is more than likely to save me (as the resident IT guy) tons of headaches in the long run. It's not a binary thing; there are shades of gray where this is highly appropriate.

ETA: I also used to do this on my spouse's laptop. Didn't cause too many issues once we got past the initial hurdles.
Asking questions is the tip of the iceberg.
But then it's unbelievable that they don't have watchdog for this in place given how big and user-facing that company is. Also out of those 2000 employees having access at least some would have noticed that, wouldn't they? And it still took far to long to correct that.
So if people can get a license and go and buy semi-auto long guns, which you say, thus corroborating what I recall seeing on YouTube, your logic doesn't really hold up.

YC exists because a dude made it big in the initial dot-com bubble.

"right place at right time" implies luck was the direct result of Amazon rather than any kind of underlying skill. I'm certainly not suggesting luck didn't play a role, but I'm happily suggesting that you're implication was that luck was the primary factor. I disagree.
Thanks for the links.

I do think it is worse because rather than 27 laws (one for each jurisdiction), you have 1 law with 27 interpretations, and unclear jurisdiction.

For instance, What might be treated as fair use in one jurisdiction could be treated as criminal in another.

In the US, while we may have different state laws, copyright and speech are managed at the Federal level, so there is only one hierarchy to navigate. This resolves the jurisdiction issue. I'm not sure the EU has that same capability in this situation. If so, then wouldn't the fair use situation quickly become harmonized?

There was a push in American education against using contractions in writing sometime in the earlier 20th century (perhaps earlier). The APA style guide says to avoid contractions in all official writing. People probably continued to write as they were taught in grammar school.

If it were to make a comeback today, it would probably be in the form of "m". Like, "ru goin w/m?"; or "m ain't spiders. mr2 spiders."
A very large percentage Pepe memes are white supremacist propaganda or just blatantly racist. They took something that was decent and ruined it.

The topic of Psychiatry is interesting to observe. I'm reading pessimists vs optimists in the comments and find it amusing because of the impossibility of knowing who is right. I want to believe society has best intentions and is on the right path. Yet what does the science really exhibit? A lot of psychiatry has been horrific the past hundred years and cases exist where the person does benefit. So what's the majority verdict because even snake oil has some satisfied customers.

I use Fastmail and, yes, you can reply from the aliases, including anything-you-want catch-alls. Unlike the grandparent, I use a subdomain because setting star@example.com as a catch-all seems to invite staggering amount of spam.

I set star@hi.example.com as a catch-all and then have a rule that, unless otherwise categorized elsewhere, anything sent to star@hi.example.com is automatically filed into a "Catch-All" folder.

With Fastmail, I can set a reply address that matches any of my aliases and * (star) works as expected, it matches anything, so I can just create a sending identity in Thunderbird as, say, mybank@hi.example.com without having to go into Fastmail's control panel and do anything else.

When I played a broadcast engineer helper for one of the British TV companies in the 80ies NTSC feeds that we would sometimes get from AP would cause a total freak out.

I don't know much about all those and I experienced VR (other then the Avatar movie) for the first time this weekend at my friend's place on his PSVR.

Anyway, what would be the difference between the PSVR and a 6DOF system?

> "... All these institutional and theoretical elements are summarized by saying that monetarily sovereign governments are always solvent, and can afford to buy anything for sale in their domestic unit of account even though they may face inflationary and political constraints."

Sure, government can always confiscate everything that exists under its sovereignty. It can either happen via crooks going around with guns, or via "paying" for things by Kinko dollars. The end result is the same in both cases: products and services are not created, because what's the point of doing these, if they are confiscated anyway?

What's the MMT insight again? What does it say that's different than mainstream economics? What predictions it makes that are different than mainstream economics?

I don't think your first point very well thought out.

Any doctor (or mechanic, accountant, etc...) could benefit by providing false/sub-standard services to keep the client returning regularly.

As for the measurement, it's almost entirely based on feedback from the patient.

I can see how a depressed or mentally ill person could be more susceptible to accepting medication that wasn't in their best interest, but that problem seems intrinsic to all medication.
> Explaining why "monetarily sovereign governments1 have a very flexible policy space that is unencumbered by hard financial constraints" seems a lot like a green light for deficit spending.

No, MMT is not a green light for deficit spending.

MMT is an explanation for why the entire fiscal model in which “surpluses” or “deficits” (and even moreso government borrowing and having “debt” to finance deficits) exists is a misleading façade when governments monetary power is considered, a holdover that only really makes sense with commodity—rather than same-government-issued fiat—money.

> Maybe not advocacy, but something that will be used by advocates.

Sure, every theory will be used by advocates of something; MMT isn't used to advocates of deficit spending, but by advocates of monetizing fiscal policy. (Though the latter can look like the former if you are stuck on the model of reality that MMT points out is flawed.)

Based on my experience (in the US), almost no one outside of "firearms enthusiasts" is capable of distinguishing between legal and illegal configurations. In many cases, even those who do know the specific differences aren't in consensus on what is legal and what isn't.

I wasn’t considering fairness here (that’s a whole different can of worms). Even for a game where everyone’s lag is the same, X milliseconds of input lag and Y milliseconds of network latency is painful for some values of X and Y. For fast paced games I’d say X is probably just a couple of frames (15-30ms) and Y is about 100ms.
That's true of some effects, but in TNG the core spaceship / space station models were shot on film, and then composited with other effects like phaser shots.

In DS9 / Voyager as I understand it, they transitioned from using models to directly generating the whole shot with CGI at NTSC resolution. See https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/CGI#Acceptance

This means that in TNG they just had to recomposite the film with a newly created high-res phaser shot; whereas for DS9/Voyager they would have to recreate the whole shot in high-res CGI.
There’s a lot of overlap. The main difference is in what they’re allowed to do, but not in what they treat. As you identified, psychiatrists can prescribe medicine. Psychologists and psychiatrists can administer tests and make diagnoses, an LCSW can’t.

I would also note that bipolar is not a personality disorder, it is a mood disorder like depression.

IMO, we already have the mental-disease equivalent of germ theory, it’s just far more complex and not yet well-understood by enough people to have broad social impact.

The problem is that these mass shooting drills are taken to the extreme, way beyond what is necessary to prepare them. If they were treated more like fire drills, it wouldn't be nearly the impact on students and faculty as they currently are.
Off the top of my head, Mexico, Haiti, and Guatemala all have a "Right to Bear Arms" in some form. It's widely ignored in Mexico, though.

That's accurate. Note that I did NOT say that it would cause runaway inflation.

Runaway inflation (or hyperinflation, if we're being terminologically precise) == Inflation > 50% per month == Zimbabwe destroying its farmland and industry and having nothing useful to export and thus not having an economy that can support the current level of spending.

Rising inflation == The US deciding, according to MMT principles, in the next decade that "fiscal responsibility" is not a reasonable justification for preventing medicare for all and maybe seeing a percentage bump in inflation as a result.
You make it all public domain. It's been over 20 years, well past the founding father's original intent for copyright. The perpetual copyright garbage that exists today is culturally toxic and isn't seen in any other field of work. Should builders get paid on buildings that keep standing? Highway workers on roads that they make? No? Then why the hell should creatives get special treatment? Look at the house of mouse and the crap they've pulled. The fact that you can't take something you've loved for over 20 years and make derivations on it is theft from the public in my eyes. People being born today most likely won't be alive by the time it goes into the public domain. Think about that.
And yet it did and continues to.

Sorry, but your logic doesn't hold up. You said, "Probably because most guns are illegal so we don’t need them." Since Canada has ready availability of semi-auto long guns, has relatively relaxed gun laws, and even licensing and daily background checks would not have stopped all mass shooters, your logic that such drills are therefore not necessary is empty and illogical.

You cannot prove a negative. I hope for your sake, you're just trolling with deliberately faulty logic.

Color blindness is due to a defective gen that express one of the three kind of cones in the eye. Usually the cones more sensitive to middle length photons (M ~green) become closer to the cones more sensitive to long length photos (L ~red) and thus they can only discriminate colors in between thanks to the other short length cone (S ~blue), but the S cones are almost blind to these colors.

The thing is, these genes are in XY chromosome in males, and thus we only have a single copy for each of these genes. Women have two copies of each gene, so even if one goes wrong, the remaining one can express the cones.

Funny thing is woman with a defective gen usually just goes unnoticed, but the defective gen in some cases can express a fourth kind of cone with a peak sensitivity between M and L cones, allowing them to perceive colors that usual humans can't perceive.

Only "Class E" firearms are themselves registered, to my knowledge. A holder of a less permissive license can purchase very similar firearms, so long as they are modified to be in compliance (e.g., have a thumb-hole stock instead of a traditional pistol grip) and they only use 7-round magazines.
Sure, because in the US an extremely wide variety of firearms are entirely legal. NZ is about to get quite limited in their permitted weapons.

This is used exclusively to injure LGBT folks. Sexuality is not something that can be channged at will, and attempting to do so causes immense harm. I can guarantee a good chunk of this app's audience are LGBT teens.

Look, I'm gay, and grew up in a very conservative area. While my parents were good, growing up closeted and seeing constant moral disapproval caused mental damage that took me some time as an adult to overcome. I was lucky.

I can tell you are straight. Please don't make assumptions about the damage that anti-LGBT rhetoric does.

Folks commonly confuse freedom of speech with freedom from consequences of speech. This shouldn't be legally banned, but companies are within their rights to not do business with these whackadoos.

They shouldn't do business with them if they value equality of humans. They don't allow apps that advocate racism. Anti-LGBT bias is no different.
