Re: Even when given free tools to access anything they wanted, less than 5% of the subjects actually accessed uncensored content.

I am not particularly concerned by a low interest in general( if we ignore the other flaws and accept this study for arguments sake).

In “free” societies not that many people are engaged in politics, activism, etc. If two percent of a population is paying attention and hollers when something gross happens, and then 30% of the population joins in, maybe that’s enough.

> The excitement was gone.

Most people didn't hear about it. You can ask people on the street. They sure know facebook. Excitement is not a good way to motivate people to move platforms, in general (despite the niche cases like Fyre Festival which are relatively small). Maybe they should have gotten some celebrity support? Otherwise the excitement wasn't mainstream. G+ needed mainstream users.

> But people did want to join Google+, but they couldn't

That doesnt explain the lack of participation a year later. Nobody wanted G+ because they didn't need it. Even if it gave some benefit (which it couldn't) it didn't join with their existing Social Media data making a higher barrier.

The fire report states that it's an internal wiring fault in the machine, and all of this was caused - approximately £8,000 worth of damage - when the machine was turned off

Well, I guess that's the hazard: it's definitely better to have "2FA lite" than to have no 2FA at all, but I don't think our mentality when it comes to 2FA advocacy should be resignation towards the mistakes that users make. But that's a really hard line to walk.

I just hate that pedantic comments like the original poster are the most upvoted on HN.

The most upvoted comment on most articles isn't addressing the topic; it's some sort of ridiculous analysis or criticism of process, or an embedded piece of javascript, or whatever.
Apple has used US Customs to seize parts intended for repairs, including parts from donor boards. Apple sued (and last I knew was trying to appeal) a Norway repair shop for repairing iPhones using "counterfeit" components. iirc, some parts, including the display, must match appropriately or the OS won't boot as a form of parts validation, effectively preventing display swaps when repairing.

I don't think the previous comment was licensing the design. Apple has been very aggressive with donor parts and data recovery.

I worked at Time Warner Cable when they got acquired by Charter, and rebranded to their "Spectrum" cable product.

GMail was different in a number of ways.

1. Exponentially more space in a market where single or double digit megabytes was the norm. GMail's original pitch was that you never had to delete an email, and that you could always find them with search.

2. It was one of the first web apps. It was dynamic in a way few sites were then. Asynchronous JavaScript (Ajax) and Web 2.0 were still new concepts.
There are a lot of people out there who argue that building more houses won't help solve the high cost of housing. I have also found a lot of those people complain Airbnb is driving up pricing. To not acknowledge the supply problem ( and the supply solution ), but to say the minimal change in demand caused by Airbnb is the problem to me is just dishonest.

3) I think (I have no data! :() that HN has a larger majority of Chinese and Indian users than American ones at this point, I base this on what appears to be a larger investment in technical education by those two countries in the past few decades, and the attraction of those folks to the SV tech scene. I could be way off, but would love to see coarse geo-IP data from HN visitors :)

5) Agreed. I am all for being critical of governments behaving badly, not just China's, and it's a bummer when folks couple people to their governments. It's a sure-fire way to make those people support their governments.

That could certainly be the case as some housing markets now seem to require initial capital to make sense. But I wonder if part of it isn't accepting a specific deal (or life)? Which is probably a good idea, but not something everyone can do. At least my impression is that most people who move to big cities do so because they want to establish themselves in life.

The question is whether average person trying to do so is going to have better success in Leeds than London. Or if it is going to be mostly the same thing but with less opportunities. Once you know roughly what you want to do, or what position you are in, medium size cities tend to make more sense. But I don't think that is controversial.

I think many young people argue if they are going to have to change jobs every few years, commute some distance, have high rent or whatever else that affects their quality of life they might as well do that somewhere where they at least think it might count for something. Whether in the future or right then.
No it hasn't. A lot of homes are rented out through AirBnB now because it's the way to be found. It also guarantees payments.
It is more than a social process.

The gist of it is in 2016 January, many mainland Chinese VPNed onto Facebook to post curses on Taiwan politicians who support Taiwan independence.

It's not a big event but it's funny they VPNed out to do that. Also from my personal experience many oversea Chinese students, and first generation immigrants, many of whom tech workers, among which many of them working for FANNG, dont consider censorship a big deal.

EdX and MIT OCW are both based on YouTube - I think they have mirrors or at least unofficial uploads in China but it would be better to just use YouTube.

wikipedia has a pretty deep explanation of the black egyptian hypothesis: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Egyptian_hypothesis

And in case it's even needed to say so, I don't believe in egyptians or the historical jesus being white - I don't think anyone does outside of American media.

As for my personal bias, I have no dog in this fight. I'm in the very edge of what could be considered white, being from a country with more than half a millenia of Arabic influence, and the concept of race doesn't exist here with the clear divisions and strong connotations existent in America (not that racism doesn't exist of course).

My comments regarding China are always anti-goverment. But considering how the Chinese people have no say whatsoever in their government, it's hard to look at China-the-people as having any amount of agency.

Of course, that a wrong view to have, but it is the first impression. Even more so when you consider the culture and history of CHina.

It depends on the use. For a home server or even a small office fileserver, you don't need massive threading capability, and in fact some of those low-core-count parts are fairly highly clocked, which makes them faster.

For example in the 7000 series, the i3 7100 has a 3.9 GHz base clock and you have to go almost to the top Xeon (the equivalent of an i7) to get anything equivalent. And even then it's a turbo, not a base clock, so in principle the motherboard should not let you turbo forever (PL2 time limit may actually be enforced on a server chipset).

Also depending on workload you may not even be able to exploit an increased threading capability anyway, without 10 GbE on the box, or link aggregation capability.

Recurring payments have been intentionally blocked by the banking regulator in India by requiring 2FA for every online transaction to prevent abuse/fraud. It is a known pain intentionally traded off - hopefully will get fixed at some point.

I think the issue with international cards is also likely linked to online transaction 2FA policy. Some American banks don't implement 2FA and that's likely the reason they fail. I've never had a problem with my Singapore card.
