Honestly, I consider this on the same level of malicious behavior as if a site added a bitcoin mining script on their page to "share" some of my CPU. By your own admission, opt out is two clicks away, and even that requires you to 1) recognize the Arc logo and 2) know what it does and that you can opt out.

The emotional reasons are particularly huge, considering the known connections between stress and general well-being:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_stress#Physiolog...

The connection between information and stress, and the connection between stress and a wide range of physiological effects effectively proves that more data is NOT always better. It's clear that there are cases where being given more data will reduce the general well-being of the patient.
The GPs cloud provider is the registar.

Do you agree that “The state of a physical system is described by a well-behaved function of the coordinates and time, Ψ(q, t). The function contains all the information that can be known about the system.”?

When the atom is coupled with the electromagnetic field and the state of the system is not separable there is no complete description of the atom given by a wavefunction defining its quantum state. You can have an incomplete description by tracing out the rest of the system, I agree.

Let’s say then that "An atom can be completely described by its quantum state only if it's isolated and in that case its energy is constant."

Edit: in any case, my point was (and I think that we will agree) that it is misleading to say “Consider a system that transitions from energy state 0 to an adjacent energy state 1. [...] To go smoothly from 0 to 1, the system transitions through a series of superpositions of both states”.

The atom goes from the state 0 to the state 1 but during the transition it’s not described by a superposition of those states (that would be a pure state). If anything, it is described by an (improper) mixture of those states, obtained by tracing out the rest of the system.
Most of the examples in the video they had the subject record the audio separately from the generated video. In one or two of them they cite some audio-generating thing.
That's correct but we're not an ETL engine. We use DBT for the data transformation and you basically define what the measures/dimensions/filters are in this template so that your non-technical people run ad-hoc queries without any need to write SQL queries.

The thing is deepfakes don't really make this easier. They are a lot of work to produce and ultimately aren't a whole lot more effective than a good old fashioned photoshop or crappy meme.
>> [getting a quality audience of thousands of people is non-trivial, costs money, or needs a clever strategy]

>That hasn't been my experience...

It's kind of begging to differ with...yourself? There are some contradictions here.

You say you did it in part by writing books, yet typically writing books is considered non-trivial. If these books are trivial to write that doesn't make them bad. However, it could give the impression that on average writing a book is easy. Special cases withstanding, it is not easy.

>I just put a ton of effort into writing things

Putting in "tons of effort" is also generally not considered trivial. I guess you meant it required trivial skills, rather than a trivial amount of time. Great. However it still conflicts with your thesis because it means some part of this approach is not trivial, and these clarifications matter when the phrase tons of effort is used.

My point is, it can be very hard to build communities from scratch. Many people just can't do it, or can do it only after building the skillset over years of practice. Most pros avoid starting from scratch whenever possible, many accelerate the process through investment.

It sounds like you've managed to overcome a lot of obstacles with gumption, hard work, and some good intuition about the process. That's a nice accomplishment.

However for the purposes of those considering taking on the task, it's worth noting I can't see how it refutes anything I've said. I'm glad you were successful, and it seems you may have a knack for it. For others, I think it's useful to take care to not underestimate it.
Yes, this is true. However, good quality photo editing became relatively cheap and convincing in more recent years. So now you don't need to be a nation-state to be able to convincingly pull something like that off. You can just be some guy in a basement with $1000 worth of computing gear and experience using photoshop.
This is some good advice. Riding a bike gives you a much better sense of community because you see the people and recognise they are the same people you see all the time rather than just another generic car you will never recognise again.

A signature doesn't have to be protected from malicious removal. If a bad actor removes it (or modifies it), then the video can no longer be validated and is considered compromised/unknown (which may be the same thing depending on how important validity is). DeCSS was removal of encryption, not signature, which is a whole different set of concerns and goals.
Also, software doesn't have to be developed to spread widely.

I'd take his argument even further. I am pretty good at programming. When I have written a program, I believe it's right.

I always test, before moving to production. Always. Even if it seems trivial to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt, by argument, that this code is correct. Always test, before moving to production.
This is part of the reason conservatism and right wing parties are winning all over the world. People realised that feminism, all kind of "families", diversity and the decimation of the working class brought on by immigration and globalism, are not making them happier. Maybe many of them are not as eloquent explaining those issues as the article but the gut feeling is the same. But people ridiculed and ignored their plight instead of addressing those real issues and it continues now with the left becoming more and more entrenched in their hate and ignorance of people who dare to raise those issues. If you look at the comments to this article it is mostly far right type of comments, the left is not there to discuss or raise their own ideas and opinion how to alleviate those issues.
Plato and many American states agree: A women of 16 is old enough to get married, have kids

Plato would even add the "and do well at both".

That is advice from a famous philosopher. He thought 16 was ideal for women, and 30 was ideal for men. I have no idea if he might have had a personal bias in that matter.

In terms of my take, much of it is in the blog entry: it was a difficult decision, especially because the public cloud is a big part of who we are. It's very important to us to do right by our customers, and the team has been very dedicated to doing everything we can to get affected customers onto new infrastructure. Beyond the EOL of the JPC, we continue to serve our on-prem customers -- and (to answer a question that came up elsewhere) our technologies are and remain entirely open source.
I use a chatroom which is bridged between IRC/Slack/Discord. I stuck with IRC for a while out of hate for Slack and then I moved to Discord out of hate for Slack.

General experience is, the worst inputs come from the IRC interface. Occasionally that is a regular with a long running connection, or a genuine interaction with a normal person, but handwavingly-mostly the IRC side is someone who has clicked on a web IRC gateway, doesn't know what they're looking at, wants a "give me the codes" style answer or just wants to rant, doesn't respond to people when they offer help, and doesn't stick around. Most people who join IRC and stick around, join and ask "oh there's a Discord, how can I get an invite?". The only genuine spam I've seen came from the IRC side, things like religious spam/flood messages. The biggest restrictions on things like inline-code are that the IRC interface can't deal, because it risks getting rate-limited for "flooding" the IRC servers because one bot user is echoing all the chat from every other user. Markdown which works well enough in Slack and Discord is left as Markdown markup and makes examples look broken in most (all?) IRC clients. The slack and Discord can usefully impersonate each other's users with a hint that you're looking at text from a relay, IRC can't so all the text actually comes from a relay bot user which breaks nick highlighting, nake autocomplete, channel connected user lists.

The Slack experience is still user-hostile and indefensibly poor, I yearn for the days when typing some plain text didn't have 5-10 seconds of lag all over the place, but the Discord user experience side is tolerably fine in almost every way, and better in many ways, except the ideology of it being proprietary and closed source and slurping data into the cloud forever.

I leave my IRC bouncer running, and for a while I used it to join other IRC channels. But IRC increasingly felt like that's all anyone does - typical experience of finding a random channel - dozens of users and nothing but join/parts for the past couple of days.

But each device could have it's own unique signing key, signed by a manufacturer master key that is not distributed. Then you could revoke just that one device if the need arises (or even a manufacturer). Isn't this a fairly solved problem in the TLS/CA space?
>especially when you are on a vacation.

This. I used to live in Seattle after vacationing there a handful of times, but after living there I found it to be one of the most least welcoming, racist, Progressively Elitist™ places I've ever lived (and I've lived all over the US).

It's easy to say "I will commit to making more meaningful connections with people/strangers today", but if this is not received or reciprocated; well...there's not really much you can outside of devoting more time in trying to breakthrough some sort of glass wall that some places have created an environment for. Which comes down to two choices in my book:

1. Fight through and prove yourself/others wrong
2. Go somewhere else that you feel will be more accepting
The problem is that just like "fake news", deep fakes will provide alibis for people caught doing real crimes.

And their fanbases will listen because it's easier than accepting their idol could be a bad actor.
>The difference is there are already tons of regular people with vehicles that fit this profile already.

Not in India. The cars operated (usually now owned) by Uber/Ola drivers are considered high end cars and are loaned to the drivers by a cottage industry of agencies which take a cut of the fare (not sure if that cut comes from Uber's side or the driver's share).

It is a social construct, but the point of that construct is identity, not a direct exercise of power. Race ('white' race especially) is an "easy" answer to the perceived problem of "what am I supposed to identify as" for many Americans. And renouncing one's self-identity is really, really hard so it's very likely that this social construct will be sticking around for a while, whether we like it or not. Of course, this also implies that whenever we engage in derogatory discourse about "white race", "whiteness" and the privileges thereof, we're launching a direct and sometimes vicious attack on what many millions of people see as part of their deep self-identity - which of course can be seen as rather disrespectful, and liable to generate pushback of some sort!

My mom lives in a small town in Canada. When she visits the Bay area and we go for walks, she always says "hi" to the people we pass. It usually makes people do a double take.

But it was the same when I lived in a mid-sized town in the mid-west US. People were much more friendly and inviting. Randomly striking up a conversation (small talk) was usually quite well received.

This includes great quotes like:

> The paper reported in its front page story that an Iraqi man “caught red-handed with a bomb” had been awarded £33,000 in compensation “because our soldiers kept him in custody for too long”. In fact, the man in question was found not guilty and the reason he was awarded compensation was for unlawful and degrading treatment while in custody (he was beaten by guards) as well as unlawful detention.

I also hope Matrix takes off. I have been using riot.im for some time to check if it could replace the many chat applications one is forced to use these days (FBMessenger, Slack, Signal, Telegram, WhatsApp, etc).

It does have its quirks but I'm finding the ability of having e2e-encrypted chat with multiple parties in a way I can move across devices quite useful. It also does support some more modern features like sharing pictures, files, and emojis without major issues.

Didn't bother to find and try a text-based client yet, although matrix does seem to have an IRC gateway (of course): https://matrix.org/docs/projects/as/irc-bridge.html
That sounds like a poor justification for simply using the wrong phrase. I've never heard it used sarcastically, just incorrectly.

If you read the article, it describes how hardy this virus is. That's not the kind of virus we want spreading and evolving.
I think developed and developing is also strange. It implies an universal direction countries have to follow where reality is way more complex. We should instead stop trying to simplify countries and segregating them into categories.
The research demonstrations I've seen are sufficiently terrifying. I believe we'll have something like http://www.xtranormal.com/ for major political figures within two years, producing deepfakes that are sufficiently realistic that I have several relatives who will be tricked by them.

or to put it another way, the entrepreneur believes the conclusion as if it's the premise and then tries to find the appropriate rationalization to support it.

Michigan isn't a terribly dense state but has a large Muslim population.

My rural hometown had a population of around 2000 people, and supposedly around 10% or so are hmong. They weren't treated any differently as far as I knew; several were part of what passed for the preppy / popular clique in school.

I am a white male, and get plenty of stares, because I am unusually tall and have an unusual hair style. Wherever you go, if you stand out, people will notice. That isn't a bad thing, and it doesn't mean people don't like you.

It doesn't :) I understand your point, but with that level of technical detail in a post, claiming that "we're just a small startup so we built it ourself" and "you don't know because you've never worked in a startup" feels like .. I don't know .. an excuse?

But why are you removing prejudice from the equation? In my experience, in Sweden, that is often used by people who really want to say what I define as racist shit but they see themselves as anti-racists so that is a problem.

Take something pretty harmless like "white men are such shitty fucking drivers". That is an example from a young very left wing politician in Sweden on twitter. She would of course never say "arab men are such shitty fucking drivers" even if they are statistically involved in more accidents in Sweden because she would see that as racist. Same as if a guy had written "women are such shitty fucking drivers" he would probably be seen as bigoted.

I think a lot of these discussions of what is racist and not and systems of oppression comes down to that it is nice to have a group of people you can generalize over. So that is why people are redefining concepts.

If a Black American hates and think Native Americans are worthless. Is he racist then? Who wins on the oppression competition?
