I agree with others here, YT and it's like are de facto monopolies by their size and market share.

PeerTube [1] is a Mastodon [2] offshoot project that might allow users to get off YT, no idea where it's at though.

"One project, Peertube, does exactly this. A federated, decentralized video sharing platform using the same back end as Mastodon, but around the sharing of video clips."[3]

My guess is that a tech player with a big ad spend is unhappy about YouTube tutorials teaching users to de-DRM their content or jailbreak their consumer devices.
I'm just wondering if there's ways to link the timelines of the main article (last 3 years) and the rural vs urban comparison (which was from 2017, but cites data much earlier)

You say this like using trendy languages implicitly indicates improvement.
Afghani independence day? Or Iraqi independence day? Or did you mean Libian independence day? Syrian perhaps?

In NL there is currently no independence day.
redtube and other porn oriented platforms have no porn content.
What do you use to rip those? I am about to embark on a similar project, planning to use vobcopy so that I can retain all the DVD features (multiple subtitles, multiple soundtracks, menu, etc.), but I suspect there's a better option - I don't want to handbrake as this seems to lose all of those features.
Done, also thanks for writing your views. It's nice to read reasoning and more so from tech people because it's somewhat relatable being the same field as myself.
Can you explain where I’m going wrong? The evidence of Tether not being backed 1:1 is pretty overwhelming by now and Bitfinex has printed nearly two billion new ones since the start of April.
So now anyone who might want to work with your program has to be trained in LaTeX and the Greek alphabet, and has to use a specialized IDE/editor.

Fair enough in some contexts, but I don’t find that to be the nicest general-audience feature. YMMV.
Not related to the OP’s complaint, but a shocking few can shuffle by random album. Apple regressed: the iPod could but the iPhone can’t.

Arrays are not tensors (except when they are, of course). If you want to talk about (n-dimensional) arrays of numbers why wouldn’t the word “array” be enough?
Why are you saying goodbye to someone on a public forum.

Hint: don't reply.
What exactly does it mean when people say that a currency is backed by a government? ”Backed” to me implies, e.g., redeemable for gold which is clearly not the case for the US dollar. Is it that the government issue bonds denominated in that currency? But that has nothing to do with the money supply per se...?

Please explain.
I want to A) see the video and B) know why Google skipped age-restricting and simply banned it. Censorship is worse than irresponsible disclosure.

Weirdly, the verb "to doubt" used to be used in the opposite sense to how it is now. So, for instance, if you say "I doubt it's going to rain", that means you think it won't rain. But a few hundred years ago, it would have meant you think it is going to rain. (And of course if you lived in England, you'd probably have been right.)
In my experience it is easier for the people not well versed in RDBMS administration to get MySQL going rather than postgres (this was always one of the adoption advantages). MySQL has also been easier to setup on any kind of server compared to postgres, and for features like replication. It is also true though that MySQL (at least up to 5.6/5.7) has plenty of limitations in implementations that really let you down at scale or in some cases (only one index per table per query across multiple tables, single threaded select, query planner has opaque view to how data is stored). The query planner being separate has been a boon in other places like mysql-ndb and rocksdb as storage engines but becomes a constraint you become increasingly aware of once yo get in the 0.3TB and up table club.

Sqlite is also an inappropriate database engine for any system that requires concurrent read/write access for multiple processes. While most people probably think they can work around this most people forget things like event logging and last checked timestamps which is a requirement for production applications.

I also want to mention that I did not read it in the comments here but I feel like MySQL and MariaDB still haven't settled their differences while postgres (to me) feels more stable. Then you also have the feature compatible DBaaS like AWS RDS. Also knowing you have PL/perl or PL/python in the back pocket seems hard to give up.
I’m not speaking in the name of the company: I expressed my personal opinion about ReactOS and wrote back in 2017 that I think it’s a ripoff, after looking at their code. I’m not out there to destroy ReactOS, but if you ask me today what I think about it, I’ll give you the same answer.
That's certainly the (false) belief under which many legislative and governmental bodies operate.
Think of every single erroneous belief that people have about randomness. A pleasing music-randomizer algorithm obeys all of these.

The term found on a lot of music players is not "random", it is "shuffle", and this is an important distinction. The term comes from cards. Take a deck of cards, shuffle it, and turn each card over in order from top to bottom. You expect that every card in the deck will be seen once and only once; turning up, say, two eights of clubs in a row means that something is dreadfully wrong with your deck.

Humans tend to expect a similar behavior from "shuffle" modes: the same song does not repeat for a while. If people are shuffling by song, then they may also expect that performers don't repeat within a (smaller) timeframe.

Nobody expects "pick a random number between 1 and numsongs, play that song, repeat, and be perfectly happy to play Baby Shark forty-seven times in a row if that number keeps on coming up".
what kind of animal listens to music in a random order?!? I have trouble finding a player that organizes by album. I just want to play to a sorted list of albums in order. No player does this.
They know what you put in the registration form, every device and IP address you've ever used, who your friends are, who you parents are, who your coworkers are, what websites you visit, what stores you shop at, who you're likely to vote for, and a whole lot more.

I don't know about banning something because it leads to illegal activity, however I do see why they ban some content.

I'm Pro 2a but YouTube was demonetizing, and even removing some, many firearm videos 1-2 years ago and it had everyone in the firearm community in an uproar and the people screaming the most were the uploaders that had videos along the lines of:

"what happens if I shoot a barbie doll with a 50 cal"

"what happens if I shoot a watermelon full of tanerite"

"what happens if I microwave ammunition" (Demolition Ranch has an entire series of these)

"what happens if I microwave a full ak mag" (Demolition Ranch has an entire series of these)

"what happens if I put the wrong caliber ammunition in a firearm" (Demolition Ranch, also I believe King of Everything did this as well he also was in the news for at least two of his videos and had legal action taken against him for making explosives around the same time)

Like, you aren't teaching people how to safely shoot or reviewing firearms, you're doing stupid stuff that is extremely dangerous and absolutely should not be replicated by viewers at home.

Similarly Cody's Lab was losing it last year or the year before when his account was suspended... after he literally rushed through an airport talking to his phone animatedly about making explosives and --- blowing himself up --- in a previously uploaded prank video, and this year he's been griping about how his videos are being demonetized again... well... yeah... you poured liquid mercury into your mouth and were squirting it through your teeth... and you previously almost blew your finger off when you were whacking home-brew nitro glycerine with a steak knife... and you had the federal agents visit your house in response to when you talked about how to make yellow cake at home and were showing your incredibly poor storage methods for radioactive dust. You aren't being persecuted, Google and/or the authorities are trying to make sure you aren't going to do harm to others or instruct others how to do harm.

I imagine the spirit behind this is more to ban videos like

"hack your girlfriend's phone to install secret tracking apps"

and

"how to hack our neighbors WiFi"

instead of "how to assess vulnerabilities in your network"

I think that you dropped a letter which radically alters the meaning of this sentence from what was intended.

Just to add to this, Apple did have a warrant canary. It disappeared in 2014 [1], suggesting that they have been receiving warrants and possibly takedowns for the last 5 years.

I dont understand this, if it can be bypassed, by definition, it is not secure?
Agreed. R might not have the breadth of Python, and it's less conventional as a language (procedural, vector based).

It has some key strengths though:

1. RStudio IDE as you note. It's a really great, focused IDE for doing most of the things people do with R.

2. Shiny. Such a well conceived and constructed toolkit for building interactive apps

3. The package ecosystem: lots of really good quality, high performance packages

4. RStudio the company, who contribute a lot to the community - both open source (RStudio IDE, Shiny, tidyverse, ...) and commercial (RSConnect, Package Manager).

From a language design pov I like Julia over Python over R.
But for number-heavy computing I prefer the R ecosystem overall.

Ask HN: What disclosure obligations does a private company have to shareholders?
I left a company about 3 years ago, and exercised some options immediately after departure.

Since then they've apparently taken funding (which isn't public anywhere), but I haven't received any correspondence from them (about the funding or anything else). Do they have any obligations to keep me updated on happenings within the company, or are they allowed to keep me completely in the dark until they're a public company or experience a change in ownership?
I remember an image processing application back in the late 90s that would do FFT/reverse FFT that I used a couple of times to “paint out” certain regular artifacts. Same basic idea as this, but not nearly as successful. I can’t remember the app name though.
<joke_explainer> Gross Domestic Product is a measure of economic mass, not market health. The GP is implying that a large conflict would stimulate the production of wartime equipment such as weapons, which are very expensive and would (potentially) represent a large boost to our gross domestic product. The mobilization of the economy for wartime production during World War 2 is often attributed as ending the Great Depression because it put everyone to work in a command economy that superseded the depressed markets of the time. </joke_explainer>
Not anymore a conspiracy theory. This is the actual big brother modeling our futures, a group of people powerful enough, with their own interests and their own agenda with access to most peoples minds/lives, and who already publicly explained how they plan to influence on global geopolitics and society building.

I find it disturbing this level of censorship. At first, it was pedophiles, murders and violent criminal acts, then terrorism and copyright... even without the need of a lawsuit or proper request from a court it is hard to argue against this sort of censorship. But now they started banning and censoring everything they find immoral and the definition of morals is subjective and not even philosophers could argue that there is any common moral, not even among the most uniform society. Good luck to everyone, sooner than later they will change their definition of morality and we all gonna pay with our freedom. I think it is a better win for everyone to defend individual rights over the supposed benefit of collectives as history proved because no one is authorized or qualified enough to decide our collective destiny. But many are the ones who feel entitled to do it.

And sorry Daniel. I guess I should have posted an Ask HN instead.
russia/china/north korea/iran don't follow US legislation.
Sorry by that only applies to US passenger rail, US freight rail is an impressively efficient system. US freight trains are diesel-electric allowing them to benefit from the high mechanical efficiency of electric engines coupled with the high energy density of diesel fuel as a power source.

The US is second only to china in terms of ton-kilometers of freight transported and moves nearly an order of magnitude more freight by rail than the EU.

With the exception of China, which has both massive freight and transport rail systems, most countries tend to trade off between transport of freight. The reason the US's transport rail is awful is because it's freight rail is incredible. And though it may be diesel it is a remarkably efficient use of is (as opposed to the trucks necessary for transport if you don't use trains)
First they came for the conservative voices...
You're definitely not the kind of person I was singling out in my remarks. If you own something, it's a different story. In your case, owning a CD or ripping it is the same in my eyes.
I mean most rich countries have both open borders within the EU and their social safety nets seem to be doing pretty fine.

This is clearly untrue. Open borders for other citizens of EU countries, yes, but hardly "open borders".
As if there is any truly secure system on earth. Name a secure system.

Please use tubeup [1] to backup at risk videos to the Internet Archive. It uses youtube-dl on the backend for retrieving content, subtitles, etc, and will properly set metadata for the item in the archive. The content will be darked if there’s an issue serving it, and the IA staff and storage system will throttle you if necessary (which will bubble up as s3 timeouts).

DEFCON, CCC, and other infosec groups need to move to peertube ASAP.

It's too bad that Pi-Top is moving away from the laptop form-factor right around the time the Raspberry Pi is becoming usable as a desktop computer.

I'd love to see a drop-in-replacement motherboard design for an old hardy laptop (maybe something like a ThinkPad X220 -- < $100 on ebay). This could end up being fairly straightforward to design once the Compute Module 4 comes out.

Some new hinges and a little elbow grease and you could have a nice little 20-hour-battery laptop that's actually usable.

The only private railroad in the country opened a few years ago in South Florida, and is expanding from Miami to Orlando in a few years.

Hopefully more will spring up around the country, but I'm not holding my breath. Florida is ideal because both parties are largely pro-development / pro-growth, so the regulatory hurdles are set much lower, and the geology is flat with large amounts of unused land.
More concise to use an attribute selector: 'input[type=checkbox]'.
You might also need the FaceID sensor as well. It turns your nose a little bit too apparently so I imagine that it's creating some sort of mask and mapping your facial movements onto it.
Creators can host their own content with their own sponsorship and advertising agreements on their own domain and pay their own bandwidth bill.

YouTube was born in an era of a half dozen different non-standard codecs. Now H.264/MP4 works on everything from TVs to watches.

The reality is that most content on YouTube isn’t even worth the bandwidth it costs to get it to people. Most creators are just looking for a handout for creating mindless nonsense.

Below the original comment in a reply is YouTube's full list. One of the items bans videos about "hard drugs" which it defines as any drug that causes a physical addiction. Is there an incoming wave of coffee- and tea-related takedowns? Because I'm pretty sure that headache you get when you don't drink caffeine for a day is not your brain longing for the rich aroma of freshly-ground beans. It's a physical addiction to ... a drug!

They should just make the rules say "We don't know what our standards are. If someone flags your video and whoever happens to be reviewing things doesn't like you, you're gone. Buh bye." At least people couldn't complain, as every takedown would comply with their written policy.

I'm sick and tired of Google playing the role of the global regulator of what's acceptable and what's not. Not everyone can afford own data centers and CDNs to serve content. Not every single page can benefit from SSL.

And web's not the only area they are regulating through monopoly - the number of hoops one has to jump through these days to run an e-mail server, just to have its e-mail acceptable by the holy Google e-mail servers is silly.
