I think we agree then. the classic distinction between public and private space is almost a red herring in this argument. the focus should be on how long are you allowed to store information, or maybe even how widely and indiscriminately are you allowed to collect it in the first place.

> Every piece of hardware on a computer is a piece of global mutable state.

It's a tenuous analogy. DRAM, disks, caches...effectively the entire memory hierarchy is implemented as message-passing. Flip flops can be well, flipped, but those are super low-level. Almost all the rest of it requires you to send messages. It's kind of ironic that all those messages basically orchestrate the illusion of global mutable state.
Right, but that is a reason that some companies moved to "Unlimited PTO". It isn't accrued and so doesn't get paid out. It saves the company money while typically screwing the employee
This seems like it would, if the trend continues, have some interesting ramifications for France's law forbidding parentage tests for men who suspect they may not be the father of a woman's child. The government may end up knowing more than the people in cases like these.
there is some form of hierarchy even in flat orgs. best bet is to get buy in from the seniors

> I’m going to use both. TOTP most of the time, U2F in a safe at home in case I break/lose my phone

That's backwards. TOTP is vulnerable to phishing attacks, which are the primary threat model. Far better to use U2F for daily use, and then keep a printout of the TOTP QR code in a safe at home as a backup.
Dampens direct influence proportionally, though. The "cleaner" the money is, the more difficult it is for nefarious sources to dictate terms of use to the end user.
Um. Yes, please.

>“hate groups” exist in the USA because this is a free country. In places without our commitment to freedom and human rights those type of groups would have been suppressed by the government.

Looking at the history of the KKK, for instance, I find this assertion frankly laughable. The KKK flourished then withered as a pretty direct measure of its government support, not because of some worthy indifference to the organisation. And if you stand up against them, as the Panthers did, well even the NRA will suddenly support gun control.
> generating electricity by burning plastic might release less carbon than from burning coal because the plastic contains hydrogen as well as carbon

Can we get the same effect from burning coal while adding external hydrogen?
Oil in the ground is also carbon that wasn't in the air.

If the amount of jetfuel consumed stays the same, the amount of CO2 going into the air stays about the same. Could slightly increase or decrease depending on the processes' efficiency compared to the marginal oil producers' efficiency.

It's a question of supply and demand. If your final goal is to burn less oil, then you want to 1) reduce the supply and 2) reduce the demand. Buying Tesla reduces demand: good. Turning plastic to oil increases supply: bad.

Your plastic bag example is interesting because I think it's accurate - having plastic compete with combustion as a use for crude oil is good from an emissions standpoint, because when the wells run dry, less of it will have been burned.

(Plastic bags are indeed a bit of a silly example because there's so little plastic in them - we ban them because they cause disproportionate environmental harm)

Fuel made from recycled plastic will displace fuel made directly from petroleum. So it will make the first problem (disposing of used plastic) better while not making the second problem (carbon dioxide emissions) any worse.

Turning plastic into fuel is probably the only practical way to re purpose it.

Recycling never cleaves any bonds, so the food is still there causing problems.
> it indicates that users are happy with the result

Doubt. Especially "time spent on website" primarily indicates that the user didn't quickly find what they were looking for.

You'd be correct in assuming that it's a good indicator if it wasn't gamed. Since people believe that it's a ranking factor, they'll do whatever they can to increase it. Shitty SEO texts that go on and on without actually saying anything, breaking the back button, adding exit intent popovers, you name it, it's out there. All heavily increasing time on site.

The causation is the other way around though. People and local societies grew apart decades ago, and the norms changed.

I'm sure there are plenty of people like you who aren't Medium users, but if I understand your question, you're asking how many people there are who are dedicated Medium readers.

I'm saying, yes, obviously there must be a lot because when we publish articles they get read by people from within the network. I also sometimes see my own stats split into web vs. app and the app numbers are about equal. Only dedicated users would be using the app. Then on top of that the money is coming from paying subscribers, the most dedicated type of user.

I'm not that interested in what the total number is across Medium because what actually effects me is how many show up at a given article. It's common to get thousands or tens of thousands. The best article I ever published got 1.1M total views with 407k views from within the Medium network. HackerNews or other external sources that drive you to Medium get counted as external views.

In LA it's not legal to ride scooters on the sidewalk, so, in theory, people should fear riding scooters too because they're supposed to ride scooters in traffic -- just like the bikes. Of course, in practice, almost everyone rides everything on the sidewalks in LA. Traffic codes are mainly unenforced here.

Cite. A. Source.

Edit: My skepticism has survived one citation and counting.
If there's a broken down vehicle blocking the car portion of the road, the road is closed. If the bike lane were protected with a physical barrier, you wouldn't be able to enter it. Why shouldn't it just be off limits?

I've run into a number of services that only allow a single U2F key (it's been a while, so I don't remember the exact ones). Even if they do support multiple U2F keys, how do you handle enrolling both? I keep my backup key offsite, so ideally I could enroll it without physically possessing the device. If I have both in my possession at all times (or even sometimes), I'm at risk of losing both of them.
