Do you believe you are being force-fed thoughts any time you hear or read anything anyone else expresses? Seems to be just as much the case whether on not that expression is part of an ad.

I personally have a pretty strong desire for agency. I’m also conscious that my understanding of the world is entirely constructed by the sum of my interactions with said world, and advertising is only a tiny part of it. I’m thankful for the sensory input this world provides me - without them my brain would have nothing to do and my agency wouldn’t be very useful.

It sounds like you are suffering a lot because your experience of advertising in the world is incompatible with your opinions about advertising. I can see two ways to solve this problem:

1) Adjust your opinions about advertising, so that you think of them as part of your voluntary engagement with the world around you, not something that is being forced on you.

2) Remove advertising from your life.
No. If you sent a bus down every street in San Francisco every minute, the throughput in terms of people per hour would be dramatically higher and the streets would be empty.
It's not human action that would worry me, it's nature. Freezing cycles could easily erode a pool in a few decades and make micro-cracks that fester unnoticed for years. Rust is an ever present issue for re-inforced concrete and is the cause of countless civil engineering disasters.

What? Cars are what make roads fundamentally useful.

Unless we want to force everyone to live in cities, single occupancy cars are a necessity, since covering all destinations with public transportation is impractical, especially suburban/rural environments.

Yeah, there are a lot of clones, including Survivalcraft (for iOS) and there was one for 3DS before Minecraft was released there. Linden Labs' Blocksworld wasn't a strict clone of Minecraft, but was definitely an attempt to improve it. Also, Fortnite's Creative mode is heavily inspired by Minecraft - many staples of the Minecraft scene, such as 'spleef' games, are being replicated there.
For a while I was commuting from Mountain View to SF. It was cheaper and faster for me to drive to the Daly City BART station and park than it was to take the Caltrain (on which there was usually standing room only). This is including the purchase price of the car depreciated over the lifetime I expect to own it, fuel, parking, and maintenance.
I would argue that the GPL is so restrictive to violate the principles of FOSS. BSD or public domain is better and more free.

> Because they don't give a rat's ass about the freedom aspect of free software. If software A requires four clicks to do something, but B has a way to do it in 3, they are on B without a second thought.

Isn't this kind of the point, though? To compete with proprietary software, free software needs to actually be competitive. "It's not as good as this other (proprietary) software, but it's free" won't cut it.
You need private transportation in rural areas due to the sheer size and remoteness. You also need to plan around cars in urban areas for people coming from rural areas. That's not to say you shouldn't focus on public transportation in urban areas, but it's not possible to ignore cars.

I'm sure this is a neat system, but it's worth noting that bicycles are already very efficient, the difference between their claimed efficiency and a properly set up traditional drivetrain is maybe one or two percent.

And any weight savings are probably useless due to the minimum weight required for racing. Pro bikes are basically at the point where they're having to add weight just to pass inspection. This system might have a bit less rotational mass in the "cassette" than a traditional cassette which would help.

>about about providing reliable commodity middleware for locked-down devices and cloud services.

Free software made cheap, network centric computing feasible. This led from a model where the user ran their applications (open or closed) on their machines to one which turned the user's machine into a dumb terminal to access the network. This resulted in defacto loss of user privacy and control.

In a world where Windows was dominant and you had to pay a per cpu licensing fee, would companies be trying to put everything on the web, or would they create more apps that ran locally with some network based syncing? It would have been a smart computer, dumb network world instead of the dumb computer, smart network world we have now.

One of the great ironies of computing is how free software in its quest to enable user freedom actually enabled a world with less defacto user freedom than before.

> CBS is one of four major legacy broadcast networks. They are owned by National Amusements, whose other assets basically amount to a lot of movie theaters. This contrasts with NBC (owned by Comcast), ABC (owned by Disney), and Fox (also owned by Disney now).

National Amusements owns Viacom, which kind of undermines the contrast you are drawing. And Disney doesn't own Fox (the broadcast network) it owns 21st Century Fox, which uses to be the corporate parent of Fox Broadcasting, but Fox Broadcasting, Fox News, and a number of other assets were spun out to make Fox Corporation which didn't go with 21st Century Fox to Disney, and which is still controlled by Rupert Murdoch.

Funny little detail that might interest you: Due to the presence of a large number of different fission products (with different half lifes), the drop does not really follow an exponential but is better described by P(t) = P_0 * a * (t^-0.2), i.e. a power law, where P_0 is the power before the shutdown, a is a couple of percent and t is the time since the shutdown in seconds.

I rode a skateboard (badly) when I was in middleschool so I'm not sure how hard it is for a completely new person. I'm not super athletic, but I find it pretty easy.

The trickiest part of skateboarding is foot breaking and pushing, with the boosted board you really don't have to do either so it's generally a lot easier. I'd guess given a couple hours and a week cruising around a bit you'd be comfortable going pretty fast.

I wear a helmet and sometimes wrist guards depending on how risky I'm feeling. If you're in town and want to try it let me know.

The dominant source of air pollution for almost all of human history has been smoke of one sort or another (see: historical dramas that show indoor light/heating with candles and fireplaces, https://samharris.org/the-fireplace-delusion/), to the extent that I personally doubt banning secondhand smoke indoors would have made much difference to non-smokers' health before open wood fires and coal fires were phased out.

I suppose it's a notable achievement of our society that both industrial pollution and domestic smoke has been reduced so much that VOCs from other sources indoors are our greatest worry.
> To me, Searls' point is that an overwhelming pressure to monetize everything has corrupted the health of the open source community.

I agree, and perhaps my parent comment itself was harsh and looking at this from the wrong point of view.

I think I perceived this article written in a more romanticized way than necessary. If there is a concrete, financial detriment to FOSS developers, then I would advise to make that point upfront.

If the problem is "There is too much monetization within the open source community", then many of the points in this article sound like symptoms or variants of the problem, rather than isolated problems themselves.

That doesn't fit reality. For example, Apple are avoiding and even banning GPL, preferring BSD. And they are one of the worst anti-FOSS values examples (due to extreme lock-in, patent aggression and so on).

"The pool is big enough to absorb the heat in an emergency, and passive heat transfer from reactor to pool is high due to a smaller reactor size, and all this passively prevents a meltdown."

Out of curiosity, how is heated water circulated through the pool? I have this sudden vision of the reactor boiling the water around it and being surrounded by a pocket of steam. Or, the repeated formation and collapse of a steam bubble, which can't be good.
How to monetize your open source efforts?
Traffic jams is not the only cause of longer than necessary travel.

I used to use PT religiously for many years when I was a young man. To get to work, using PT where I live means a one hour commute as opposed to a 20 minute car drive (one way). Now, having family, I prefer to save those 80 minutes every day and spend them with my kids -- however, there is hardly ever any traffic jams worth talking about where I live.

The sole reason for the longer traveling time on PT is that both my house and my work are not located in the center of the city but on the outskirts. All PT is organized in a star-like pattern, i.e., to go from my house to my work, I first have to take a bus and a train to get into the city center and then another bus to get out of it again. With the car, I never have to into the city in the first place but can drive right around it.

What I'm trying to say is: I find it very hard to imagine that even a very tight public transport net would be able to cover all individual connection needs efficiently. Where I live, a lot of people _do_ use public transport but for many people it would take a lot to make it an attractive alternative (and I'm just taking about travel time here, never mind all the other personal advantages of having your own personal space in which you travel).

Public transport is also quite costly around here, although it's already subsidized by tax money. If everybody starting using PT tomorrow and paid for it, this would create the instant funds needed to extend the connections to meet most people's needs. But it is a chicken/egg problem: as long as the system as it is is experienced as vastly inferior to someone, it will be very hard to convince them to use it. But without more substantially more people using it, the necessary funds to improve the system is missing. Government money (aka, taxes) could help but massive sums would be needed and already now there is never enough public funds to attend to all the things we expect our administration to take care of.

Also, in our CS lab anyway, theft of the shiny mouse pads had evidently been an issue in the past, and they were often glued or otherwise attached permanently to the desks.

But why? And who? No student back then (early 90s) could even dream of affording a SparcStation, which were the only workstations which used the mouse that needed the shiny mats.

We had various types of Sun machines in the labs, from the IPX and 5, up to dual processor 20s, and they needed an (expensive, maybe 200Mb) SCSI disk to boot from. Video was to a chunky high resolution (i recall OpenLook on 1152x900 grayscale was awesome, or the expensive option, 1280x1024 colour) monitor with RGB plus sync input using that weird 13W3 socket with the wee coax connectors inside. For networking you had to embrace the world of AUI media converters and so forth, which was just annoying. Anyway, all that stuff would have cost essentially the same as a nice Mercedes or a suburban house...

Maybe people used the muse mats as bird scarers? Perhaps they dropped too much LSD and just stared at the shiny pattern? Stealth teams of research assistants might be sent to fetch replacements for their professor's workstation, after running out of funding, but needing a new one having used his as a coffee mat and broken it? Or I suppose they could have been stolen by accident, not knowing what they were, by someone who was blinded by staring at the little laser under the mouse...
> Eight days after this vulnerability was initially fixed, a commit was pushed which removed this 'disable root by default' flag from the 'edge' build properties file, reintroducing this issue to subsequent builds.

That... Did not take long. From fix, to regression on a fairly serious security issue (though perhaps not critical, depending how the container infrastructure is set up).

> Unfortunately, later that same year, a commit was pushed to simplify the regression tests. This lead to logic that may have caught this regression being simplified, causing these tests to be incorrectly 'satisfied' if the root password was once again removed.

Testing is hard, and ensuring you meet the requirements but keeping it readable can be harder.
there is still fossil fuel consumption for the chainsaws, transportation and so on...
Do transit advocates have a solution to totally incompetent transit agencies? When we lived in Wilmington Delaware, we lived in an apartment that was ostensibly a 7-10 minute bus ride away from my wife's office and a 10 minute walk to commuter rail for my job in Philadelphia. We had just moved from Chicago, where we didn't own a car, and assumed we could continue our public-transit-oriented lifestyle.

We quickly gave up on both, and I ended driving 45 minutes each way, dropping my wife off at work in the process. The bus would just never come. Bus drivers would randomly skip stops. The train was regularly late. That was on the weekday. Once, we tried taking the bus on the weekend to the local mall. After waiting for 45 minutes (during which time three buses were supposed to have come), we went back home and got in the car.

(Another anecdote: When I was in law school, I spent a month in the Menlo Park office of the firm I was working at. Having spent the rest of the summer in the NYC office--before MTA's total collapse--I figured I'd rent something on the train line to get between San Jose and Menlo Park. Hah! A commuter train that runs only every half an hour during peak times? Are you kidding? I ended up renting a car and driving in every day.

Third anecdote--because I've really used a lot of public transit: When I first started working in DC, my wife kept working in Delaware. So we moved right next to Baltimore Penn Station, so she could take the Amtrak up and I could take MARC/Amtrak down. On paper it's under an hour for her, and about an hour and fifteen minutes for me between Amtrak and Metro. Hah! For my trip, Amtrak was routinely 10-15 minutes late, and the trip took 10 minutes more than scheduled. For her trip, Amtrak was regularly 15+ minutes late. And that was when it was almost on time. Several times a month there would be 1+ hour delays.)

That's the reality of public transit for the vast majority of the country. Chicago is basically the only place left that has public transit that runs mostly on time and has decent coverage between bus, subway, and commuter rail. Everywhere else the transit system has either completely broken down (DC, New York), or doesn't go anywhere (Baltimore, Atlanta, etc.).

Between Docker and Kubernetes you'll have your hands well full enough already and I'd recommend getting a good grip on those first and avoiding the service mess until you are very convinced your life will be worse if you don't slap Envoy, Mixer, Pilot, Citadel, and Galley on top.

It's attitudes like this that make people really not care about FOSS. Yelling at people because they're not using IRC instead of slack isn't a good way to convince anyone.
so

> no its not.

As in not related not as in not a bad idea.
You're right, the congestion instead would be at bus depots and stops. Moving any big group of things around, whether they be cargo containers, cars, people, or html packets, will incur some level of congestion.

Also I'd feel like we'd just be exchanging time stuck in traffic to time stuck on a bus as it deals with other people's destinations first
Rather than forcing people to live in cities, we could stop subsidizing transportation for suburban living and start subsidizing public transportation for urban living
I could get an ebike or even an entire motorcycle for that price. Doesn't make any sense.
An excellent point. FOSS has long been great at underlying tech, freedom, and openness, and terrible at UI/UX and ease-of-use. That's been true for a long time and still seems to be true today. The reasons for this are much-debated and well-known, yet the underlying challenge persists.
Another related problem is that these suburbs were planned and financed on a cash accounting basis, rather than accrual. This means that tax burdens (or other municipal revenue methods) need to increase to cover the replacement of aging infrastructure as the relatively wealthy flee the old suburbs.

This was a big factor in the Ferguson riots in 2014, IMO. The city had significant budgetary pressure that they managed through for-profit policing (traffic fines a big one), which intensified the racial divide there, and this is why the budgetary pressure arose.

Does it have a catalytic converter?

When I bought my house, I bought electric lawn tools as small engines are pretty terrible polluters. I read an article several years ago, by Car and Driver I think. They took a push mower, a Fiat 500 and F150 Raptor and hooked them up to some emissions testing equipment. 30 minutes of running the mower had higher emissions, other than CO2, then driving the Raptor 3000 miles.
A bug in GPL is that it allows SAAS Software as a service built on Open source software which means Software as a service can leech on open source software without contributing back.

https://resources.whitesourcesoftware.com/blog-whitesource/t...

Using AGPL instead of GPL closes the Saas loop hole.

Also due to close to zero bank interest rates the general availability of venture capital is to some extent stopping new open source software. Instead of giving away your software for free as Open source software you start a venture capital funded Software as a service instead.
Exactly. Amazed more people don't know this.
You might be interested by Ivan Illich's analysis in "Energy and Equity". The basic idea being that you need to factor in the cost of a mean of transportation into the speed of said mean.

No offense to all the great people working at Docker over the years-- but after they came to see us right after they raised their series B, it immediately occurred to me that they had hired _all_ of the wrong people.
