Game of Thrones is notable due to the use of VPN-blocking, and credit card blocking.

There are people who pay for HBOgo, do so through some forwarder which makes their credit card appear to come from a US bank, and then have to find a VPN service to actually watch it with.

Multiple steps in this transaction - completely unncessarily due to the nature of the underlying technologies - cost the consumer money, to circumvent protections implemented by HBO (or more likely whatever BS contract their parent company signed), for the express purpose of preventing the consumer paying HBO to lawfully watch their content.
I think the point is that for hosted services the fact that Github chooses to use non-F/OSS software only really hurts Github's freedom since they're the ones limited by restrictive software licensing.

The fact that Github itself is not F/OSS matters even less as Github is the only user of Github's source code [1]; they're the copyright holder and unencumbered by any licensing restrictions.

[1] For GH's on-prem enterprise product this does not apply and has a much stronger case to be F/OSS since now GH is using copyright to restrict the freedom of others.
I think this highlights the conflict between owner and a user. For Corporations with employees there is a clean distinctions. For kids it’s a lot more difficult decision. Apple in its zeal to maintain the woke privacy friendly image (everywhere except China) made calculated decision that risk of these apps getting used in Intimate Partner Surveillance leading to negative PR is more than parents being unable to protect their kids from drugs and grooming. We will soon see how it plays out. My guess the the timer will turn red as it does when recording screen to alert user of MDM.
Call them what they are: A front organization. Lies created by corporations to deceive the public and our elected officials for their own interests.

"apache moves to github" makes it sound like apache made a rote and boring switch, which this sort of is. They just as easily could have moved to sourceforge or gitlab. joining a team has implications that github (c) works together with open source. while it certainly hosts a lot of it, github isnt open source.

Headlining this as your "open source community" also helps avoid the uncomfortable issue of an open source product moving to a completely proprietary system for CI and development.

As another enterprise software developer we've been told by legal that we must be accessible per the ADA and that doing otherwise could be used to claim we discriminate (hostile work environment) against our disabled employees.

Title 1:

> Employers must provide reasonable accommodations to qualified applicants or employees. A reasonable accommodation is any modification or adjustment to a job or the work environment that will enable an applicant or employee with a disability to participate in the application process or to perform essential job functions.

With our software handling timecards/leave, inventory, reporting, payroll, etc it isn't realistic for us to claim someone could perform their "essential job function" if it weren't accessible.

That all being said: Our accessibility game isn't perfect. We've just tried to make pages work with screen readers, color-blindness, etc. We still have a lot of internal video content without subtitles however (or even a way to display subtitles).

So as an occasional (male) rider of real horses, there's something I've always wondered about: how did the recreation become so gendered?

Up until about the middle of the 20th century there was still utilitarian and military horse riding. Men would learn to ride. Now it seems to be culturally associated almost entirely with young upper-middle-class girls or middle-aged women. Is this the result of toy marketing (My Little Pony from the 80s onwards), or high society, or something else?

What interests me about this Finnish subculture is that it's perfectly cloned the "horse culture", just without any actual horses. It's very close to a cargo cult. Possibly Finland is too cold to have a regular horse culture?

My father passed away a couple of years ago. It was the kind of awkward conversation I never imagined having whereby I had to kindly ask my step-mother to please stop using my deceased father's Facebook account. Granted, I get on extremely well with my step-mother and I've no doubt she meant well - it's quite likely she wanted to continue to use the account as way to remain connected with my father.

Nonetheless, it didn't sit well with me (or my brothers) that those not "in the know" would see those posts and not realise that not only was it not my father, but that he was in fact dead.

I feel like society is very much in uncharted territory here.
I'm not aware of any definition of piracy that contains the word "entitled."
I have a hard time imagine a area where boys would be allowed to have a similar community with that skewed gender ratios. The common assumption is that any gender segregation is caused by the minority being discriminated against.

WRT the blockchain/stablecoin effort there is something I don’t understand:

If it’s only for internal consumption what’s the point of a blockchain?

So if it’s for external use also then even the best “stable coin” is going to move against USD (and whatever other currencies they’re trying to follow). This will create tax implications for their users in the USA (and possibly elsewhere). Every time you use FBcoin to buy something or send to someone you need to report the loss or gain converted to USD, just like other cryptocurrencies surely?
Hmm based on this, the .org tld and the server providers can have control over the project too. Right? If so, we should use an open source distributed protocol.

There are more non-walk friendly cities like Kuala Lumpur or Bangkok. KL - everything is walled private property and one can't use shortcuts throughout buildings like I am used in Europe. In Bangkok it's those "sois" which stems from main roads which are not interwoven. To go 100m from soi 48 to soi 49 I have to go back to main road which can be total walking distance of 1-1.5km.
PS: I love those cities for everything else.

I'd guess that there are still orders of magnitudes more paper diaries, newspapers and other records around than a few hundred years ago. General literacy is a very recent thing.
This font is even more interesting because it of its extremely uncertain copyright/licensing situation:

“Open-source licenses, like all software licenses, are only possible through assertion of copyright. Certain free-software advocates prefer to sidestep this inconvenient fact (akin to ‘keep your government hands off my Medicare’). For individual software authors, this usually poses no problem, because their copyright arises at the moment the work is created. Thus, they’re free to put their work under any license, including an open-source license.

“But US government employees are a special case. As a matter of federal law (17 USC § 105), they can’t assert copyright in their work. Public Sans is an inseparable mixture of copyrighted work (= the underlying Libre Franklin font) and uncopyrightable work (= the alterations made by the GSA). The GSA currently claims that Public Sans has been released under the OFL. But that’s impossible. To use this license, they’d first need to have a copyright in their contributions. But they don’t.”

That's true by a limited definition of inharmonicity. Maybe it is perfectly harmonic in a musical sense. In reality any audible tone with a slow timbral change will have sub-sound, inharmonic undertones. Depending on the context that could or might not matter in practice. For example, the sub-audio harmonics of a trombone might not matter if I'm just listening, but if you ever record a trumpet you'll know that the pressure at the bell has a low frequency bias that might affect the recording in a significant way, simply because the air entering the system through the mouthpiece largely leaves through the bell. The paper only takes overtones into account.

There is also no such thing as a steady-state for a person blowing or bowing. The paper you linked to discusses the ideal conditions for mode locking, but does not assert that these are ever actually satisfied during normal play. It is only for an idealized bow action that the stick-slip is actually perfectly periodic. It is clearly not the intent of the paper to assert that bowed instruments are somehow inherently perfectly harmonic (if nothing else for language like "slightly", "large", "noticeable" and "sufficient" without further specification) but to provide a theoretical framework for discussing this effect and the conditions under which it occurs. This is noted at the end of the discussion section as well.

> Things like racism aren't motivated by rational arguments

Yes they are, because that is exactly what newly-insular racist communities will use to bolster up their ideological positions... Cherry-picked evidence that makes their position look rational.

The idea that no racist is thinking rationally is ridiculous.

To the extent rationality is what got them into their racism, that is exactly the amount that rationality can remove them from racism. By definition.
Doesn't this happen with all major cities after an increase of wealth, living standard and industrialization?

You have compassion with yourself when you are inevitably less disciplined. You notice that you need to improve again and you do so without judging yourself.

It also helps to work with or associate yourself with people who exhibit the habits you want in your own behavior.

I think people, in general, don't care too much about whether something is legal or not when it comes to deciding whether it's actually moral or not. Things are moral or immoral whether they're legal or not.

If some corporation isn't selling the rights to view a file in your country, and it's a pain to get them the 'legal way', I think a lot of people would look at the situation and think-

"well, nobody's going to prosecute me for this. Even if I think piracy is immoral in general, this entity has made it a pain for me to get their product without pirating- they obviously aren't counting on my money. They've waived their moral right to complain about me not paying to look at their tv show- and in the lack of enforcement of the law, that moral right is all that matters to me. I'll just pirate it. If they don't want my money, they won't get it."
One of the things that gets me is analysis paralysis. When I first started programming (albeit not professionally) most people didn't have the internet, me included. So I had to just write code and figure things out. For a very long time it's how I did things. Now, with blogs, SO, github, etc. I fall into the trap of, "well, I need to do X, so let's see how others have done it." instead of just trusting myself and doing it. I don't know when it started getting worse, but I hate it and I hate myself for allowing it to get bad.

Fighting this is a constant battle. One thing that helps is a deadline. Another is a pomodoro timer. I really wish I could unplug my internet cable for a while each day, but people would freak if I were not easily accessible.

I find the decision of the scorned developers to file with the European Union’s competition office amusing considering the Union's incredibly strong stance on individual data privacy.

iPhones contain so much personal data on-device that Apple is absolutely responsible for protecting that data from illegitimate access. Using MDM which is clearly intended for enterprise management is an illegitimate use-case. Period.

The argument that their ability to use MDM APIs in the past and earn revenue due to a gap in Apple's vigilance dictates that they should be able to continue unimpeded is a logical fallacy.

Apple is under no obligation to offer unfettered API access to these companies just because they were filling a market need that Apple didn't want to pursue. You can tell if Apple wasn't under a market demand obligation to offer MDM to enterprises, they would cut that too.

One of the value props of the iPhone and the iOS ecosystem is that Apple exerts this level of control and editorializing on the platform. The result of which is easily seen when comparing the quantity of data mining apps on Android vs iOS.

I'm sure if I was one of these scorned developers, I would feel abused even victimized by Apple. Unfortunately that is a biased perspective. Apple is doing the right thing for consumers and end-users by blocking these apps.

The reporting on this was atrocious and seems to be a result of the recent competitive chatter about sandboxed computing platforms like iOS. Broader discussions around anti-competitive behavior on these platforms are needed, but this wasn't the poster-child.
My take away from all the 1000's of articles and studies I've read on health is:

Eat real food (Not processed. (ex: eggs, fish, meat, fowl, vegetables, some fruit)) and not so much.

Don't smoke cigarettes or drink alcohol.

Exercise daily (even if it's just a brisk walk for 30 mins).

Find time to meditate (rest your mind) for a few minutes a day, even day dreaming for 5-10 minutes is great.

Try to get a good nights sleep (approx 7 hours for an adult).

Try to Fast at least 12-16 hours a day (typically over night while you sleep, 6 pm to 10 am).

Seems like it should be easy but somehow we still make it complicated.
