It is quite telling how this is getting downvoted with no argument. Always judge people on their actions, and especially how their actions impose upon others.

Edit: and then this is also downvoted with no argument. A better demonstration of why this facebook policy is a terrible idea could have not happened.

Do you have an actual example of such a thing? I'm struggling to come up with a case of multiple independent mini-programs in such a microcontroller that needs, or even benefits, from that level of fault isolation.
Why can't China be for the Chinese? Sure don't kill anybody. Don't hate them. But why can't German's want their German ancestry to be Germany?

The USA is a unique case in the world and should be exception, not the rule.
It's not disingenuous - it's the most fundamental question that needs to be answered if you propose speech be controlled.

> how do you get out of the proposition that someone has to decide

I agree ultimately some subset of people would need to decide. My question is who?
Def might, if your tone is off/the CEO is neurotic. If some rando came in trying to gauge how long he could hang on to a job rather than how he can contribute to the idea I'd be a bit put off.
Happy to answer any questions or if you have feedback on how to improve this. Thought this might be useful as I am sure others are going through this too.
I expect adoption in waves, not linearly.
Do you really think China has done anything on the level of these three? Basically every new neural network architecture in recent memory is underpinned by Hinton's work on back-propagation.

China has done some fantastic work in ML, but I think the award was a long time coming for these three.
Also notable is that she could not have exhibited these pictures in her lifetime - most of them were left undeveloped.
How much are you willing to pay? There are (a very few) luxury train trips in Europe. Maybe $5-10K NY-SF or NY-SEA would cover it in the US? It's totally doable if there were a market; basically upscale the long-haul Amtrak routes with higher-end accommodations and food. The evidence suggests there's not the demand.
Sure, but, if that were the case, I would expect to be able to search for and find articles about similar handling of racism in other countries in media outlets from those countries. I have not, so I cannot attribute the single mindedness of facebook's decision to the news media I consume.
"And it's not like it's an unsolvable problem"

No, it is not. But it is not a solved problem either. Self-publishing content has been tried. For years. And the reason we are where we are is not because hosting your own content is hard or expensive, it is because it has unsolved problems that social networks solve. How to consume content you want to consume? How to share your content with people you want to share with? How to build and manage an online community? You might say that aggregators solve the first problem and blogs solve the second one and forums solve the third, but all of these things existed before Facebook and other social networks. Having a unified platform for sharing content with people you choose and consuming content from creators you choose won the market against multiple single purpose services like blogs, forums, news aggregators etc. And Facebook wasn't the first, the "original" social network LiveJournal started out as a sort of a blog hosting service, yet simply by adding an ability to have "friends" and read a selective news feed from people you "friended" it became more popular than any other blog service of its time. Facebook and other social networks are doing exactly the same and they are successful because they provide functionality that does not exist otherwise.

Could this problem be solved? Could we have a decentralized content hosting, yet keep all the benefits of a centralized service like Facebook? Most likely. But it is not a problem that already has a solution.
Also, By mere searching for specific terms, Facebook gladly assume your motives to be to in particular way. This seem misguided and not well thought through.

I have 0 control over the Signal project in any way shape or form. The fact that Moxie advises MobileCoin has nothing to do with his work at Signal. I can't force Moxie or anyone at Signal to do anything.

Moxie and I have a close professional relationship but I'm not sure what bearing that has on asking for the code of Keybase's server to be open-sourced. That's not a biased statement, and I would say the same thing in any thread about Telegram, WhatsApp, or FB Messenger's privacy. It's all the same.

If you want trust, you have to be open source. That statement has absolutely nothing to do with Signal.

Yes I use Signal. Yes I'm a fan of the Signal team's work. No, I don't think Signal would be better off with a closed source server. Yes, I do think Keybase should open source their server.

I honestly have no idea why this is even controversial :/.

That's fair and makes sense.

No problem. We'll add a section to keybase.io/docs/linux-user-guide.

F-35 is a massive success compared to UAVs. It's the only supersonic aircraft with VTOL capabilities that also simultaneously has stealth capabilities. HN constantly complains about manned fighters being obsolete but Global Hawk et. al. cost more than a F-35 per unit and they can at most only be used against ground targets that don't fire back.

PhD experimental physics, early 1990s. Today, I work for a company that makes scientific instruments.

A lot of successful physicists have stories about unorthodox career paths and lucky breaks. This should be a red flag for anybody considering study of physics. But maybe it suggests that exploiting opportunities and lucky breaks is part of what physics education is about. You have to decide if you want to live your life that way.

Why didn't I go into engineering? That was kind of an accident. Note that when I was in high school thinking about what I wanted to do, the digital revolution had barely begun, and maybe engineering still seemed a bit stodgy to someone living in a sleepy suburb with little exposure to the world at large. I had intended to major in math at a small college with no engineering school, and ended up adding a physics major and heading to grad school. I loved experimental science, and thrived in the lab. My parents are both scientists, and had pretty good careers, so there was that whole role model thing.

At my present job, we have a full engineering staff, including programmers. Why do we need scientists? There are actually a lot of scientists working in "engineering" organizations. I've noticed that the scientists tend to be more multidisciplinary and quantitative. Whatever the difference, I think it helps to have both perspectives. I get handed weird, unsolvable problems, that can't be categorized. I develop a "system" view of how things work. I work on manufacturing problems, customer applications, and so forth. I'm one of the "math people," and I handle weird things like understanding measurement noise. I actually like theory.

When I think about whether I should have been an engineer, I remind myself that I might have failed at it.

I've been pretty lucky. My job isn't glamorous, but I've had a good career, and my job has never been super intense in terms of stress or hours. I enjoy my evenings and weekends.

Housing prices are dictated solely by jobs. Look at a neighborhood in mountain view in the 80s and that same neighborhood today, I bet its the exact same single family houses, but the houses are an order of magnitude higher in price with zero upgrades. Not because the streets are swept more regularly or anything, but solely because tech companies are handing 22 year olds 6 figures and landlords smell blood in the water.

Now look at a place with lower playing jobs, like Cleveland, and the absolute opulence you can buy for 1m in Shaker Heights. Century old mansions are in play here. How much would this monster be in SV:

Oh and note that its across the street from the train line that takes you straight to downtown, or the airport with a transfer. It's also less than a block from two huge parks and in one of the best school districts in the city. All of these huge quality of life perks going for it, and its still $88 a square foot because Cleveland does not have SV salaries.
Every time I read something about Bitcoin dying I cringe.

It's another article written for the attention seeking readership.

Bitcoin (and many blockchain based coins) spiked astronomically. They all came back down as well but still unbelievably higher than where they were after the Mt.Gox crash.

20k wasn't even realistic due to the fee's being insane. The entire system is a system with sliding levers on consistency and forced supply and demand.

If you want to argue about a flaw, ASIC's were the mistake. CPU hashing would have eliminated the centralization risks, GPU's could have been expected and ultimately ASIC's after that.

This system is like water with all of the cracks able to be found for optimal strategies. There is so much to unpack in this it needs an article which has been written a thousand times but when you pick apart FedNet, ACH, and all of the systems amidst that, you just have something that you've grown up and obliviously trust.

Bitcoin networks provide you visibility into all of it....none of this is pretty, but it's a lot more obvious from Point A -> Point B.

But they're not banning Zionist (Jewish nationalist) content, only White natl content. So they're engaging in illegal discrimination due to disparate impact.
Did you notice how you can compare the NSA letter to the source code and realize the effect is that they're the same?

If you didn't have the NSA letter, would you be able to verify the source code? If another project got an NSA letter and responded to it, would it tell you anything about the source code?

This is simple: Having the source code means you get to learn more from the other signals, no pun intended, of how that source code is used.

Again, as we move to a world where servers have more verifiable code running on them, the value of having open source code will increase.

To me, the biggest contrast here is simply that Apple stores tend to be really, really small for the number of people in them at peak hours compared to other mass market retailers.

All of the above, and more. Organizations like Facebook can decide to deplatform white nationalists, and we can vote with our clicks or whatever in response to that. You and I can get on message boards and advocate for what we think is just. Over time we all shape our society in our image.
If you haven't heard the "SR-71 Speed Check" story, it's pretty amusing. As told by the pilot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8AyHH9G9et0
Same here, at least privately - it happened a couple of times that I renewed or changed for whatever reason the key on some server and a few days later when I tried to connect using a secondary device I got the warning, which made me go to defcon-2 for at least a few minutes, hehe.

On the other hand, at the company I work for, internal machine certificates/keys are renewed without my involvement (I'm a so-called "IT-owner" of some apps and the infrastructure that the apps use), and therefore I get the warning when connecting to their Linux hosts but each time (few times every few years, but still...) I dismiss it hoping that it's because of the work of the admins renewing the certificates (clarifying who-did-what-when would be a potential major administrative undertaking) => this is absolutely a flaw of the internal processes.

Yes, it could be fixed by a more complex infrastructure, but again, if the internal processes are weak then even the more-complex-infrastructure could be compromised by side-attacks.
There's many arguments that can be had either way but the one that always resonate for me is this:

Once you ban speech on any ground that isnt directly putting people in danger, even real nazis for example, they DO NOT disappear. They still recruit. They still operate. You just don't see it.

The people they recruit are suddenly in a bubble where they DO NOT see the opposite view point. Their opinions become unbalanced and they become radicalized. You now have more hard-core nazis.

In this case, I believe FB does this for 3 reasons:

1. many people inside FB believe in censorship and that you can forbid people to speak or think and that it makes the problem disappear. Many people in tech actually believe this.

2. FB sees this as good marketing, and good to retain eyeballs on their platform, specially vs the "we reached out and FB refused to ban nazis, FB is siding with nazis"

3. FB wants to control speech so that they can ask money when you want to be heard. Effectively, this means "media company X pays X so that their message appears more often". The more you control speech on the platform the more you can push for sources of content that will actually pay you money.

Of course, these are just my opinions, and stuff.

> Going forward, while people will still be able to demonstrate pride in their ethnic heritage, we will not tolerate praise or support for white nationalism and separatism.

Can anyone elaborate on this? Speaking as one of them, I'd hazard to say that the majority of 'white people' in the United States are so far distant from their 'ethnic heritage' that we'd just define it as 'American'.

Mexican-Americans celebrate their Mexican heritage, Japanese-Americans celebrate their Japanese heritage, etc. What does your average 'white person' celebrate? We don't know a heck of a lot about my mom's side other than that her father is French Canadian and her mother is Polish American. Dad's side has been here since the 17th century (according to my grandmother anyways).

It's the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and it has its limits just like everything else. Namely employment and "places of public accommodation". If you read the SCOTUS opinion on Masterpiece Cake Shop you will see "public accommodation" mentioned a LOT.

So, I'm certain you will find legally hung signs with racist and discriminatory content in certain places.

> If we don't fairly quickly extend free speech into these platforms

That's outside the scope of the First Amendment. It may not even be possible to pass such a law without infringing on those platforms First Amendment rights... I would expect the SCOTUS to strike any such law down.
I found it hilarious that chip verification was your number 1 example. As an end user of such tools, I dearly wish that more people of the "valley fodder" variety joined the field.

The definition of "censorship" applies to contexts other than government so it's not clear what argument you are making.
Why only white nationalist? Why not black nationalist? or Japanese nationalist? or Chinese nationalist? Facebook is a global company after all, if an African country says that they don't want white immigration will they keep this opinion up or is it just applied to whites in America?.

What about other unsavoury opinions from the left side? Why white nationalist is any different to no borders propaganda? Aren't they both dangerous to people in America?
It is in at least seven states including California.
I don't think that private censorship is necessarily a problem, but I do think that corporations having the authority to exercise what is a pretty effective form of muting is a problem. This is of course due to the size and prevalence of Facebook as a platform. I don't think the solution (or best solution, at least) is to break up the tech giants as Elizabeth Warren would suggest. I would instead prefer to see some form of socialized media platforms that take the market question out of the equation (does white supremacy content hurt Facebook more than removing it would?). This is of course, because, the market is not always right (even though in this case I would make a strong argument that it is).

I'm not sure what the best social media model for such a platform would be -- preferably something mostly non-anonymous like Facebook, but self-moderated (within the bounds of the law) like Reddit used to be.
"emotional regulation" is not exactly a term I would use to describe the majority of professional poker players, although I think it is more prevalent within the better ones. Patience and discipline are probably present within anyone who manages to survive as a pro for more than a couple years, but it's not a guarantee. There's a reason the term "degen" (for degenerate) gets thrown around so much in gambling circles. I've played thousands of hours against mid/high/nosebleed stakes pros who've played many more thousands of hours of poker than I ever will, and it's always a surprise how many of them are children throwing a temper tantrum whenever they lose any hand where they were a favorite. (This includes multiple people who each have multiple WSOP bracelets.)
I can't shake the niggling idea that this, just like node before it, is more or less a way for JS web devs to not have to leave the ecosystem they're comfortable with and learn a new language. We already have hundreds of ways to write native UI applications, but web devs can't bother to use them.
Hallelujah. "But what about me, I don't have student loans!!" "Look at this age discrimination!!" These are the same group of whiners who will bitch to no end that maternity leave is unfair because they don't have kids.
Until somebody is in position of calling your bluff and you're busted.

IMHO poker is about bet optimization and risk management. To take as much as possible with the lower risk possible.
The entire conservative cohort pleads ignorance across the board, from denying human-caused climate change, to denying human-caused segregation and poverty.

If I did not include allegedly unintentionally racist impacts in my analysis of conservative policy, I'd be granting them the benefit of the doubt on which they, in bad faith, rely. Plausible deniability is, perhaps, the second tenant of conservatism. Ostensibly unintended consequences cannot be, after a millennium of this charade, left unattributed.
Do you think 200% annual growth is sustainable? Do you think that would make for a useful currency? Why do you think economists consider low (but positive) inflation to be desirable for currencies? Do you think such growth, mixed in with sporadic 85+% drops (aka: high volatility) is a good attribute for a currency?
It's not surprising if you pay attention.

Well nothing's "wrong" per say, but since we're talking opinions here I don't think it was thin or light enough, I don't care for mag safe (I'm generally careful where I put cords and find mag safe annoying if anything), actually like the new keyboard better (though I don't care for either that much), and much prefer having 4 interchangeable USB-C/TB3 ports that I can use for anything (video/audio output, midi, external storage, power out or in, etc). Sure I have to have a dongle or two, but I've actually found that to be not a big deal and overall pretty nice. And that's just the things you highlighted, not mention other things like the better touchpad, better speakers, brighter screen, finger-reader, etc.

I mean I get why people have preferences for the things you mentioned, but I'd call them appeals to "comfort and familiar" not "state of the art."
