That's… not the point of RFC 2119. The point is to specify specific words used to indicate various levels of adherence to a standard. Maybe "must" clearly indicates a strong requirement to you (as opposed to an optional requirement). Does "should"? How about "shall"? The English interpretation of these words contains shades of grey, and different people will interpret them differently, sometimes even depending on context.

Why invite such ambiguity? It leads to problems, when the designer writes "shall" and the implementer takes it as a suggestion, or the designer writes "should" and the implementer sinks months trying to satisfy what turns out to be a requirement the implementer intended as optional in light of unknowns.

Clarifying terms eases communication. RFC 2119 isn't about defining basic words of the English language for imbeciles. It's about selecting words to indicate precise levels of compliance. They could have equally named the levels P0, P1, and P2. Instead they chose MUST, SHOULD, and MAY to indicate the same, while reading more easily as part of a sentence.
Any antitrust theory against Google would be pretty abstract given that they don’t charge for either search or Chrome. But the pop up trying to get you to switch to Chrome when you go to Google search is pretty much what you’d put in a textbook to illustrate leveraging a monopoly in one sector to gain market share in another. It’s extremely concrete and intuitive. That doesn’t mean it makes the case, of course. But it’s a great starting point for building the overall case.
Many many googlers constantly advocate their resentment to the company. The company gives more avenues for this than any other company in the world.
They built other libraries on top of this [1] [2], and when compared to mobx [3] it indeed looks very similar, however I think the target ideal of having a small core on top of which one would build more complex computation is essential.

Since Clojure is pervasively built on laziness, there has been some discussions in the community about doing the same but for incremental computation. And doing it pervasively most importantly guarantees it will work at any granularity without any manual fiddling with observables and reactions.

A recent contribution to the solution field in Clojure is micro_adapton [4][5] which looks like it is to incremental computing what miniKanren is to logic programming, i.e. a tiny core for a a challenging problem.

Also, considering the literature around it it seems to be pretty tricky to do properly, especially when it comes to databases [6].

Agreed, they should have put the code from the paper on the front page:

main contract Policy {
state Offered {
int cost ;
int expirationTime ;
}
state Active {}
state Expired {}
Policy@Offered ( int c , int expTime ) {
-> Offered ( cost = c , expirationTime = expTime );
}
transaction activate ( Policy@Offered >> Active this ) {
-> Active ;
}
transaction expire ( Policy@Offered >> Expired this ) {
-> Expired ;
}
}
I wonder if there should be a similar account for "in males".

I believe many medicines are tested in males only because it would be unethical to test them in possibly pregnant females. However, one ridiculous example is birth control pills.

People don't seem to understand how this stuff works in the US, Google has full editorial control over their search results protected by the first amendment and that right was affirmed in court time and time again:

If you don't like their free no lock in service go elsewhere, and that's why there is no sherman act case here, which is why if the DOJ actually does anything here it would be a waste of time and resources.
The paper does contain code. Why not put it on the project page and Readme.md?
It requires no intent, and iirc the argument of Standard Oil before their censure was precisely that they didn't mean to stifle trade, they were just better than everyone else at it. The Supreme Court said they didn't really care why or how, they cared that it was a monopoly in fact.

But historically anti-trust suits have usually been about what happens when negative sentiment towards American mega-corporations grows too high. Essentially the rules are different for big companies. In reality, most of the things companies need to do to avoid anti-trust cases are performative. Even more ironically, the super rich at the tops of corporate pyramids often end up profiting from these sorts of actions. All an anti-trust suit can do is mandate companies fracture into multiple legal entities. Usually the same owners retain their ownership, only now over dozens or more of companies which each individually pay upwards.

What's even more distressing about these laws is that they're quite unusable against entities that are at least as frightening, like Amazon (and historically Walmart). Amazon is the omni-company, and now they're gonna get into consumer telecom too. And because they're lateral as opposed to vertical and they choked out the competition during a recession, they don't even have to pretend the're offering a square deal to their resellers.
> ... a business might be justified in denying access to code/data being used in literally criminal behavior...

I agree. Look at the absolutism of the comment I am replying to. My whole point is that there might be some nuance to the situation.

> ...Digital Ocean or any other service is publicly declaring that however affordable they may be for prototyping, they're unsuitable for reliable applications.

Again, I agree. Considering how cheap AWS, backblaze, and Google drive is, it is completely ridiculous to depend on any one single hosting service to hold all your data forever and never err.

Really the opposite of what I was trying to say lol. I’m saying the engineering is bananas. Totally impractical and barely functions outside of a super narrow range of specifications for a short time. They are just showpieces, like some ridiculous sculpture. You are never going to drive something like this on the open road and speed past everyone lol. If you drive them at all you just see them stuck in traffic in LA or weaving in between Toyota Camrys on the way high dangerously and for no reason. It’s more like a piece of fancy jewelry.

Distressingly absent from this list is the company that cheerfully collects and sells even more data that Google about the average American's life and collects MUCH more of their money: Amazon.

People generally don't read prose in technical resumes, moreover, I'd never hold it against a candidate because they're nudged into writing in a highly summarized, notation style. Unless there were blatant issues with language, and then I'd be super concerned about blowing off an 'english as a second language candidate'. About 1/2 of devs it seems are from 'somewhere else' and we can't expect them to have world class technical chops and perfect fluency.

Words have meaning, and because language is vague, we help it a little by pinning down the meaning of certain words: this is for clarity, it's not a constraint.
Holy crap. Well that is a story worth sharing.

So... Never trust DigitalOcean for anything important.
That's fantastic-that employees feel they can express resentment without reprisal, however I'm left feeling that my question wasn't really answered-regarding the sentiment quoted and the context being discussed via the article linked.

"I'm worried that if the rest of America knew what we were actually doing here they would literally come here and kill us..."

This is a VERY specific and very interesting response to the goings on of your employer. My company frequently has feedback surveys prompted by HR for employee satisfaction, I still hear through back-channel mediums a lot of gripes and kvetches that were uttered over libations with the understanding that the discussion doesn't leave the bar.

I'm inquiring how insulated individuals at Google are from even that level of 'resentment' born dialogue between colleagues and coworkers.
What's wrong with scraping a bunch of pages. As long as they are following robots.txt, it's no big deal.
Amazon is not a "trust" in the strictest historical definition, but it's a amoral and terrifying company with incredible reach that frequently can and does snuff any chance any competitor has of using anything else.

If Google is bad for using AMP to try and drive publishers to AMP hosting, then how is Amazon not even worse for ramming crazy terms down publisher's throats while buying or undercutting every other shipping and shopping system in the country? Amazon's pretty much dismantled and eaten the entire American book industry, it's in mid gulp of the American consumer shipping industry, it's already business critical via AWS for a majority of American businesses, and now it's turning to selling "AI" products to government and law enforcement.

As for Facebook, I think maybe Facebook isn't a monopoly. But they shouldn't be allowed to buy Youtube or Twitter.
American War on Drugs (2017)
Many of my colleagues in grad school got their PhDs without first-author publications. It was not at all uncommon for a thesis to essentially be three or four papers stapled together, which would be submitted to journals shortly before or after the defense. Publication didn’t usually happen until several months later.
I find that awareness and avoidance of idioms is much easier once one has learned (well) a second language. I am fluent in Esperanto, and somewhat subconsciously translate much of what I write as I am writing it. It leads me to choose simpler words and grammatical constructs, and to avoid circumlocutions and especially idioms.

This seems a bit like a complication that browsers shouldn't be handling? Like really, do we need this feature baked into the web forever, just to make it easier for websites to audit their performance?

A cynical part of me notes that adding more complexity to browsers just makes Chrome monoculture easier: I have no doubt that Google can win any war of "throw developers at it". But it feels like they're building a complexity debt nightmare that we'll all suffer from.

Edit: I guess the other and more direct angle for why Google would push this is that they can give "fast" sites a ranking boost in search, i.e. dictate what web pages do via soft power to make their job easier.

> Yet, for millions of people, the antidepressant they take makes the difference between a productive, engaged life and miserable penury or suicide.

We're begging the question here.

Millions of people who have recovered some stability after a period of profound crisis were begun on a particular treatment at the nadir of that crisis. They very reasonably assign the recovery to that treatment - because they view that treatment as an individual, rather than as a cohort who endured similar crises, responded with various or no treatments, then had various degrees of recovery or mortality.

Additionally, they can't be evaluated based on their reaction after the treatment is withdrawn, because antidepressants are generally physically addictive, and you would expect a subsequent crisis even if withdrawn from a person taking them who had never had a crisis in the first place.

The effectiveness of antidepressant medication can't be assumed through the testimonial of the survivors, then types of depression reified through sorting the survivors by treatment type.

It becomes obviously self-justifying, because people who didn't improve clearly had the wrong depression for the drug. Instead, you have to evaluate the treatment against non-treatment; you can't just assume that survival indicates success, and work to refine tools that filter for the people will be helped by that treatment without material evidence, either of physical mechanisms or by already having strongly predictive tools, that the treatment is more effective than placebo.

I wouldn't deny that defining a disease by its effective treatment could be useful, but the margin for effectiveness would have to be pretty high if there were no other criteria for that definition.

Look, I get it — the issues with Google, Facebook, Amazon. But I can’t help but think about how AT&T and other ISPs banded together to claim they shouldn’t be regulated because they are Internet companies just like FANG during the Net Neutrality discussions. When I see just how bad ISPs are acting, in lack of competition, price gouging, content ownership, data monitoring, it really seems they were successful in shifting the focus to FANG and convincing everyone to forget about Net Neutrality.

This is not meant to whataboutism, but the truth is the public/news cycles can only handle so many “tech” related items at one time. People are not “locked in” to any of the FANG companies nearly as much as they are their physical ISPs where they really do not have an option.

Everyone who uses AWS essentially gives data signals to Amazon. As they're by far the biggest cloud provider, that's a lot of data. Add that to their physical goods store, their shipping, their payments, their music store, their player apps, their subscription data, their identity and payment data. Amazon's looking at getting into the consumer communications business too.

If I were a bad person asking, "Who's more valuable to Hack for consumer data" I don't know how I could conclude it's anything but Amazon. Google might have your credit card and purchasing patterns, Amazon will. Google might know about your phone, Amazon will.
Nope both. Holochain core is written in Rust and you code distributed apps ("DNA") in Rust. Polkadot core ("Substrate") is written in Rust and you code smart contracts in Rust ("Ink"). Both compile down to WASM.

"Things you've bought before or looked into buying before" seems like much more useful data to sell ads than "non-shopping things you've searched for." It's definitely a higher signal to noise ratio.
I think the real motivation is to allow Google to use guaranteed never-slowness as an unspoofable ranking signal, essentially creating an alternative to AMP that doesn't require special tags or libraries.

So I have been putting together a way for people to more easily make their own blogging platform. It would kind of mimic a social media platform, but since everything is committed to a repository using the JAMstack it could easily be converted to a full website or in your case you could simply delete the repository or any number of your posts because they are just files in your repository. Any feedback would be wonderful. https://your-media.netlify.com/post/make-your-own-media/ Everything is owned by the end user. This is only providing a recipe for people to use. I will also mention that https://www.stackbit.com/ is doing basically the same thing but more from a “Make life easier for Website designers” perspective.

I never said your grandfather (though I did use my grand parents as an anecdote to point how far society has come)...I said, literally 10 years ago, even 20 years ago. Life is better now; and once again, most students only carry around ~$5K in student debt, the vast majority of student debt is carried by 10% of students. There is no way you can convince me that your living standards are now lower than they were in the 90s or 10 years ago; everyone is living in nostalgia for the past...people have been saying "the good ole days" forever, and yet lives continue to be improved and poor people are lifted from poverty despite this longing for the "good ole days."
Facebook's corporate income tax rate in 2018 was 12.8% ($3.2b) and for 2017 it was 22.6%. About 2/3 of their income taxes are paid domestically. Historically Facebook has paid high income tax rates. In 2014 and 2015 it was near 40%, in 2016 it fell to 19%.

Google's corporate income tax rate in 2018 was 11.9% (2017 had an abnormally high domestic tax payment due to repatriation accounting; 2016 had a 19% rate). About 1/2 of their income taxes are paid domestically.

Europe's average corporate income tax rate in 2018 was 18%, the EU was 21%, the world was 23%. There are eight European nations with corporate income tax rates equal to or lower than what Google and Facebook are paying.

Their rates are low, no doubt about it. They're neither zero (paying no taxes), nor shockingly low given the very low tax rate jurisdictions available to them (eg in Europe).

Amazon is however avoiding taxes successfully. They've managed to temporarily delay the tax hit on their new profit machine. That won't last much longer.
That's one interpretation by interested parties another would be that enforcement lawyers are always aggressive and those who make the decision in the end would have to weigh the odds of winning in court and unanimously they decides not.

Regardless, the FTC would have had a much better chance than the DOJ as they have specific broad powers more suitable to this case.

That's going to be true no matter which cloud provider you choose

My company provides services to fortune 100 companies, and we host literally petabytes of data on their behalf in Amazon S3, but we don't have offsite backups. We (and they) rely on Amazon's durability promise.

We do offer the option of replicating their data to another cloud provider, but few customers use that service -- few companies want to pay over twice the cost of storage for a backup they should never need to use when the provider promises 99.999999999% durability.

> Why would you need to fall back if there is more LTE coverage than 3G/CDMA coverage?

More LTE coverage than 3G doesn't mean the LTE coverage area is a superset of the 3G coverage area, as long as there is any 3G coverage area that doesn't have LTE coverage, you might benefit from fallback to avoid no coverage.
