That line of thinking didn't stop World War I from happening[1].

[1] - https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/monkey-cage/wp/2014/04/0...

"Political scientists often argue that international economic relationships can decrease the likelihood that states will engage in war. Nations that might otherwise be inclined to fight can be deterred, informed or transformed by economic interdependence.

World War I has been called the “Achilles Heel” of such theories. In the decades before the war, Europe experienced unprecedented growth in international economic interdependence, both through trade and capital flows. Yet war not only broke out, but the scale of its destruction was unprecedented. Economic liberalism went into retreat. How could anyone sustain the notion that trade could prevent war when the most destructive war in history had followed an era of expansive international trade? For decades, scholars and policymakers alike pointed to World War I as providing strong evidence against the liberal case."
Honestly, and I'm not trying to anger people here but. I don't think it's anti-semitic at all. It's a cartoon that encapsulated the fact that Trump(s policies) are guided by Netanyahu and Israeli interests. And that Trump follow this blindly (hence the guidance dog image).

I don't really see anything else other than critique of the current Israel - US leadership relationship.

Mocking implies that the purpose was to make Muslim people feel bad, and I don't think that is the case. I see it in the context of works like The Demon-Haunted World by Carl Sagan (1995), The Meaning of Life (1983) by Monthy Python, The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins (2006), and South park episode Trapped in the Closet (2006). The point is to illustrate and highlight the superstitious believes of religion in the context of existing culture that gives it enormous power and influence.

Among those four, two use comedy as the medium. Three of them has been banned in various countries. The only exception is the south park episode and I suspect the only reason is because scientology is not the majority religion in any country or state.
Your art is beautiful! Thanks for making it.
The author went somewhere totally different than I thought they would here. Their argument boils down to “smartphones are shitty computers with too many limitations”. This is a fair point but arguably not the main one.

IMO the real reason smartphones suck is that they are attention sucking, dopamine delivery systems. A logical evolution of a slot machine. I hate mine yet here I am yelling into the internet on it...
I think Troy probably has more than enough social credit to simply ask for help on Twitter and receive pro-bono legal representation if regulators somehow embarked on a misguided attempt to target him or HIBP.

>Back when copyright was purely a product of the written word the ultimate master information was also by definition included in every copy.

Not strictly true. There is a difference between a copy of a Bach concerto and the original score in Bach's own handwriting, even if the copy captures all the notes perfectly. Original manuscripts can contain scratched-out parts which are nevertheless of great interest to scholars (for example, Kafka experts are deeply interested in every scratched-out word from Kafka's originals). Handwriting can convey information about whether the author was writing in a hurry, or had the luxury of taking her time. One could even fantasize about discovering hidden messages encoded somehow in the original handwriting, which would be totally lost in a naive word-for-word copy.

I'd agree you probably won't see much of a performance gain once things are loaded when comparing B450 to the X570 boards, but using a PCIe 4.0 SSD will very likely improve boot and load times.

(I'm fairly certain for most gaming workloads, the bandwidth increase will only come into play when getting closer to 4k 144Hz, which is unlikely to be pushed out by first gen PCIe 4.0 GPUs.)

I rescue reptiles as a hobby. US and state laws, as well as just common sense (ie wrong biome) dictate that it is illegal to release reptiles back into the wild after they have been in captivity, my state has set a period of four weeks,after which you cannot legally return a wild caught reptile to the wild. Because of this and the rather specialized level of care needed to keep reptiles, myself and others like me end up rescuing a lot of unwanted animals. I have some lizards but generally keep turtles and consider them my "domain".

All that to say I have never met a reptile I felt would rather be in captivity. Maybe the exception is the tegu whick does seem very content to remain captive.

I don't like smartphones either, mostly for a reason he missed. They are intrusive. They are designed to suck your attention, and I feel peer pressure to be available all the time. I refuse to, and I'm often looked down for this reason.

I prefer extreme computing devices. Either big desktops, with great ergonomics and power, or tiny non-intrusive wearables.

I hope we get true autonomous watches soon, that can silently track some biomarkers and offer some smartphone-like capabilities for occasional use (maps, calls & IM) without apps nagging for your attention.
Not pointless. A step in the right direction. And a step we should all take in the software we develop, because defaults matter.

Although I agree, there's also a lot of situations where I find a touchscreen works so much better than a keyboard and mouse. I absolutely love using Google maps on an iPad for example.

Also my mother who is very very tech illiterate can intuitively use the iPad. It's just so much easier to point and press at something rather than using a mouse to navigate a small cursor.

> Over here (Finland, like all of Europe) we have roads, we have bike paths, and we have pedestrian pavements. E-scooters are always good for bike paths

Are you sure about that? Because it's not an EN15194 LEV, so whether it's considered a bike (allowed on bike paths) or a moped (not so) [edit: or are completely illegal as jdietrich reminds me] is a local / national concern.

For instance France just passed a law which will allow e-scooters on bike lanes with various limitations (and requirements, like a horn and both front and back lights). The law passed in February, and will take effect in September. E-scooters on bike paths is currently illegal there.

I remember playing around with XSL years ago, it kind of blew my mind that more people weren't using it. The bandwidth savings seemed immense. But then I started to run into edge cases, and realised that gzip covered most of the bandwidth difference anyway... but I still maintain it's a super cool idea.

> They have ruined web design.

With regards to that: maybe we should switch away from responsive designs? Modern phones have big enough screens that it s often better to navigate a medium-desktop site by zooming rather than by collapsing everything to an endless scrolling stream. I find often that trying to compromise things to fit in responsive design is annoying for little benefit.

> They have led to massive centralization

I really wish someone comes up with a successful home router that includes preloaded optional decentralized services like ipfs. It's a pity that we don't take advantage of can't take advantage of that always-on computing power in the era of crappy-battery tablets and phones.
I used to live in a highrise with windows that faced west. Since we were above the trees and there were no other buildings of similar height nearby, I got full afternoon sunlight. Summers were miserable and I suffered from insomnia greatly. Even blackout shades couldn't fix things due to the intensity of leakage around the edges. I suffered from many health issues, most likely due to poor sleep quality, during that time. It also harmed my performance at work. Things improved quickly when I sold my condo and bought a house with my bedroom facing south east.

Software developer for insurance, for what it's worth
I sold some things on eBay back in the day. Perhaps younger me would have found it worth the hassle. But taking photos, putting together a listing, dealing with buyer questions, shipping, etc. was all way too much trouble for anything but the odd relatively high value item like a camera lens.

And that's not even counting the bulky things which are what I really want to get rid of.
Do we really divide units of time that often, though? Only 'half an hour' and the quarters (in French at least) are used frequently. And with the decimal time system, 'quarter of an hour' would be just as meaningful as the Gregorian system, it would just signify 75 minutes instead of 45.

Keep in mind they introduced the entire metric system: distance, volume, weight, currency, etcetera, making this just one of many changes... Either way, apparently people weren't too stoked about having one day off every 10 days instead of one day off every 7 days.
Salesforce, Google Acquisitions: Good News for Data-Centric Tech Pros
Netflix as a middleman actually doesn't have that much power. The studios are now mostly using Netflix to market sequels. They can drive up the licensing cost of popular content until they extract all the profit.

As a middleman, Netflix is great for the customer though - no need to have a half-dozen sign-ins and always need to remember which service has which series.

In other words, I think you're the opposite of right on competition on the Netflix front. A monopoly interface adds significant value and Netflix isn't currently able to gouge the customer - the studios do that instead.

I normally don't bother posting replies to comments on here, but I have to point out that this is an unbelievably bizarre and wrongheaded interpretation of the scale and depth of this disaster. Curated collections of lossless streaming music are possible to recreate. Master tapes can NEVER BE RECREATED. Comparing the loss of a collection of reproducible fungible audio files with analog magnetic tape is misinformed at best and disingenuous at worst.
In space exploration, testing new technology is synonymous with developing said technology. I would rather they debut bleeding-edge space retrieval technology with a piece of antiquity with good publicity value than with something that is actually critical, such as a manned capsule or a suspected alien spacecraft.
Same thing happens in agriculture over pesticide use !
There’s a movie plot in there somewhere.
A few paragraphs in:

"Whales and dolphins that are already in captivity will be grandfathered in by the bill, meaning parks can keep all the animals they currently own."
That situation is pretty far from any useful definition of force, in my opinion. If people are too lazy to do some basic arithmetic, that’s their problem.
The author says that smartphones suck because battery life limitations mean you cannot use the full power of the phone's components. Librem admits that they are aiming for a mere one day of use before you have to charge the phone's battery, which is shorter than many Android devices these days. Therefore, even the Librem phone may disappoint the author of this article.
Thanks, looks interesting. Example application or illustration would be terrific. Did you have a specific application or use case in mind when you began developing MEERA?
Yes, but these are not attributes. (Or was that your point?)
The difference is we in SF have serious hills. Therefore bikes are a better form factor for us.

Scooters are fine if you're doing 10 flat miles.
In my experience, current phones are the best way to have a computer in your pocket. In past I wanted to have a physical keyboard, but I changed my mind and the onscreen keyboard is actually best.

All in all, a phone is a lousy computer. But it is brilliant if you are in a random place and need to get some work done. It is slow, but slow is better than having to go out and find a real computer somewhere.

The big problem at the moment is that we are mostly stuck with some horrible consumer operating systems on our phones. But that is problem that can be fixed.
They're not likely to abandon the free software aspect of Firefox. I can't imagine anyone at Mozilla considering turning a FOSS browser into a freemium proprietary product; for one, that would be a very efficient way to kill off their brand and community in one stroke.

What is being hinted at is providing services like VPN and secure storage in the cloud from within the Firefox browser. Services that have a real cost in terms of bandwidth and storage.

Ikea has lots of products that are made of solid pine. If you use some wood glue during assembly, their stuff will stay together quite well. I have some stuff I bought 10+ years ago hold together after a half-dozen moves with some basic mods.

I recently furnished my first "adult" house after years of having an Ikea apartment. I was pretty amazed at how up-market you have to go in order to exceed Ikea quality in commercial furniture. Lots of stuff sold in furniture stores is held together with hex-bolts and lock-tite anymore. Meaning you have to move up to Amish furniture if you want something higher quality. But that's like a 3-10x jump in price.

I ended up spending big on couches & dining table, then used Ikea stuff in the bedrooms and offices. I feel like that's a mid-point of cost and quality.
Interesting finding. I am one of those people who thought localhost was 99.9% secure. Not a developer, tho. But did some fiddling in code. Thanks for sharing.
Depends on your location I guess. Sun sets at 4:20 in the winter in Seattle under standard. So if we had to choose just one, I think many people would rather push that to 5:20.
Also keep in mind that guards are often the ones smuggling in comfort items and drugs. I imagine they don't like it when someone is sending prisoners things for free that they would otherwise have to get through the black markets in the prisons.
The headline makes it sound like they tested all the scooters you can buy, but it's specifically talking about 5 rental scooter brands in one location:

"We’ve restricted our entrants to scooter-type vehicles available on the street for rent in Venice, CA as of May 13, 2019. For this test, that means Bird, Lime, Lyft, Jump (Uber), and Wheels are in the game."
What if you were accused of a child's murder that you didn't commit? Perhaps it was particularly horrific and the police really want to catch the killer quickly to look good in the media. Your DNA matches the DNA the weapon, but match isn't the correct word - a better word is that it aligns / doesn't conflict.
The situation gets worse once bigotry is added to the mix. I stand by my opinion.
Here is my thinking:

I want to rent, not own. And that includes a home, at least until I have a family.

Why? Besides the optionality of moving, or not worrying about flooding etc. Lots of things are not necessary to be exclusively owned by you, anyway, like a car that you park every day to collectively take up tons of space on city roads.

It’s because every time you buy something you invest in it. That’s money you could have invested elsewhere (opportunity cost).

Say you had $100K in 2011. You could either:

A) Make a down payment on a house, live in it, and keep buildng equity in it

B) Do that, but rent out the house to another person and use the money to rent anywhere else

C) Rent the house you live in and invest in Bitcoin instead

Guess which strategy would have had you far far ahead.

C is better than B which is better than A.

And that’s why I prefer to rent. Decouple orthogonal things: using and investing.
A regulation is a specific text, not a general idea about the importance of security or the sensitivity of an industry.
So basically you're abusing the fact that (modern) browsers treat unknown tags more or less as divs and built a small CSS framework with these names.

I understand how that it can feel familiar to Swift devs, and also realized by reading the source that the upside of using unknown tags means they don't have any base style that you'd have to override.

But really, you're breaking all HTML semantics and your markup is not accessible. It could work as a set of React/Vue/Whatever components or even Web components (probably the best way to achieve what you're trying to do), but as bare HTML it doesn't.
They mention a VPN, some storage, both those I think are outside of current features.
> "I have the right to measure my bodily functions and publish the results"

It seems very natural to me. At least, more natural than being forbidden to do so due to the questionable practices of health insurers.

Let's move to a single bit of information. Do you have the right to publish the fact that you are colorblind? Or wether you suffer from "situs inversus" (your heart is on the right side). Or to disclose your own blood type?

Each of these bits of information reveal information about your genome, one bit at a time, thus they have medical implications to other members of your family. I find it abhorrent that somebody from my family could forbid me to disclose each of these bits of information, that I can measure about myself when alone at home. Thus, if I can disclose each of these bits individually, I can disclose them all (how couldn't it be otherwise?), thus I can disclose my whole genome.

I occasionally reside in two cities, about a thousand km apart east-west but in one time zone. Schedules between them diverge by about 1.5 hours: shops opening and closing times, public transport schedules, etc. Pretty much the only thing keeping them strictly in sync would be TV programming—which however is staggered across the country anyway so it's not insurmountable.

So, if your country has set times for schools, business etc in a time zone despite the difference in sun time, you probably should ask whose bright idea that was.
Navigating your filesystem in the Linux terminal
This argument doesn't work, especially on a societal level. Tech companies are spending millions on researching how to make people addicted to their apps, and it's working. If you can overcome that, good for you.
But for society at large, it's working extremely well and should be regulated as a society wide mental health issue, just as cigarettes and pollution need to be regulated to prevent lung cancer.

I don't see the problem. Phones often run at full (thermal) limits when they have an external power source. So, just connect an external battery pack if you want your phone to go faster.
