> There's a ton of untapped market potential in anime and manga, especially overseas.

That's just wishful thinking. There are decades of effort tapping into that potential with mildly success.

> And it's even more impressive in how most of its foreign popularity comes from unofficial, non-profiting fan efforts.

Which likely is a major reason why it is so popular. It's cheap for the consumer, the kids.
Which is another problem, as anime is mostly for kids, not adults.

> and many of us would gladly part with our money for official translations of the same quality as fansubs (including cultural notes etc.)

Not enough. Market-localisation is too expensive to justify the risk of pampering a handful fans.

The whole japanese Pop-culture is divided in a very small number of big franchises, which make the gross of the money, and a very big number of very niche-productions which hardly make enough money to even survive. The big franchises can take the risk of going overseas, and they do that for a long time now. But the small companys don't have the money, often not even the knowledge for it.

On the other side, even with the niche-produtions we now have a rather good situation today. We now have many semi-official english localisations in timly manner for anime and games. It's just not the whole market, and not for the whole world, and manga is still very much a dead fish. But that's simply beacuse it's a different market.

> Sadly, none of the suits who could capitalize on this seem to be able to see the larger picture.

You also only see the fraction of the big picture which you are part in, not the complete big picture.
Google Glass is a great idea, but was sold to the wrong market. I believe there is a lot of niche markets that would really benefit from this - the police, augmented reality tool for museums/historical sites visitors, people with physical disabilities and many others (like the one mentioned in the article).

I am sure Google knew this, but they also knew that this is not something that would provide sufficient income from their perspective.
CCTVs are probably there to stop/decrease some kind of events. For example red light cams, speeding, not stopping at STOP signs, illegal parking, vandalism, etc.

Recently two guys were seen on a CCTV doing speed (amphetamine) in a car. So the police went after them, then later they have been charged.

So it "works", but of course two dudes duing a few stipes of speed is not exactly the crime of the century.

And ... on the other hand, as you point out, it's not the surveillance apparatus that matters, but the intent of the powers that be. IBM and censuses are still around, just as racism/xenophobia/lack-of-empathy. Census questions are a hot topic. Just as caging people that want a better future for themselves.

Therefore I think CCTVs and the debate around them - especially on HN - is just noise, because so far I haven't seen any proper data and study on them.

My life in Glen Park is quite similar. Recently, I've taken to running to BART for a warm up before I take it to the Equinox and one of the first times I did, a neighbour stopped to ask me if I was in a hurry and if he could give me a lift. I accepted, obviously, and we chatted.

Honestly, most of SF is rather friendly and nice. I like it. First moved here 6 years ago.
I think something similar could happen with stockpiled rhino horns, but I daresay that African countries (apart from corruption problems) are somewhat more pragmatic than the IRS.

It's a contentious issue to say the least, and differs from the illegal ivory trade in one important way: ivory is a tooth, but a rhino horn is keratin and can grow back. Dehorning rhinos are a common practice to discourage poaching.
> We're living in the greatest time ever. I understand that when you make no money and you're writing articles, it may seem like there is a loneliness epidemic. There isn't - we're doing better than ever.

I don't understand how you can claim that with a straight face. Did you read the article?

14% of the UK population say they experience loneliness "often" or "always". 46% of a 20,000 people study in the US reported "sometimes" or "often".

Hundreds of thousands of people in Japan can be classified as hikikomori, living a lifestyle of extreme social isolation. There are similar numbers in most industrialized nations.

Downplaying or ignoring these facts is a terrible disservice to mental health, just as we did for decades with depression. This is indeed a global epidemic and I applaud the UK for introducing health programs to tackle it.
The argdown theme in vscode (that is recommended to install) is surprisingly nice as well. Does anyone know if it's a derivative of something?
Indeed. Some creepy language on the Scroll site, e.g. “With Scroll, journalists get paid to report the stories important to democracy [...]”

Like I said, I agree for verbose cases like complex logical arguments, where the contents of each node are longer and should look more paragraph-like. You're also picking an example with tons of formatting in it. If you have a bit less formatting, shorter node labels, and proper indentation, it looks great. From the second library I linked's demo page [0]:

digraph G {

subgraph cluster_0 {
style=filled;
color=lightgrey;
node [style=filled,color=white];
a0 -> a1 -> a2 -> a3;
label = "process #1";
}

subgraph cluster_1 {
node [style=filled];
b0 -> b1 -> b2 -> b3;
label = "process #2";
color=blue
}
start -> a0;
start -> b0;
a1 -> b3;
b2 -> a3;
a3 -> a0;
a3 -> end;
b3 -> end;

start [shape=Mdiamond];
end [shape=Msquare];
}

Or, if you don't care about colors and shapes (which you probably don't on a first pass-through):

digraph G {

subgraph cluster_0 {
a0 -> a1 -> a2 -> a3;
label = "process #1";
}

subgraph cluster_1 {
b0 -> b1 -> b2 -> b3;
label = "process #2";
}
start -> a0;
start -> b0;
a1 -> b3;
b2 -> a3;
a3 -> a0;
a3 -> end;
b3 -> end;
}

It's not the prettiest once you start using the advanced formatting features (some of which are already present in the first example), but it's simple and straightforward enough for manual or scripted graph layout/rendering across a broad range of use cases, and I highly recommend it as a go-to. I use it to autogenerate DAG plots in my multi-messenger astrophysics library documentation [1] and also manually to reason through things, though, again, I agree that Argdown's syntax looks better for the latter verbose use case.

I was just disagreeing with the notion that Argdown is useful in the general case, where I find that graphviz .dot format is already closer to what I would want a general graph-layout markup language to look like (despite being far-from-perfect). It's less optimized for the verbose case, but it starts pretty minimal and can be extended without too much pain in whatever direction is best.

NSO spyware ‘targets Big Tech cloud services’
That's not the problem. The resources (land, energy, man power, products, water, pollution, money, etc) required by calorie are way higher for meat.

Hence we must produce crappy food to get that quantity for everybody. And of course as a consequence, we have a lot less resources for growing things for human.

Also, because animals are higher in the food chain, they concentrate all the active products we give to them directly (hormones, antibiotics...) or indirectly (pesticides, herbicides...).
My understanding is quite different. Email is inherently insecure and there is nothing you can do about it.

PGP is insecure for everything else as well

The Latacora article was eye-opening for me on the email problem - quite simply if I send an encrypted mail to a friend / collegue - which I intend them to read, and they read it and quote it to someone else in plain text then that's it - my plaintext and my cipher are available in the wild and my key (my long term key) is effectively broken.

I simply never thought it through that way. But that's how email is supposed to be used - it will be used that way.

Mind Blown.
I would be interested to see some more complex examples for this than the ones provided[1], specifically around interrupts and DMA, both are somewhat "concurrent" resources that in C need to be managed manually, with careful use of the volatile keyword and similar.

For instance, UART transmit looks to be implemented using blocking IO[2]. I don't know Go very well, but it would be interesting if this could be implemented as a buffered channel [3], which would provide a nice abstraction for the hardware FIFO buffer used by the UART, and allow the CPU to be doing other things. The same could also be used for the I2S support I think, which will often be used to send much more data (streaming audio) than the UART.

On closer inspection, looking at the issue tracker, it appears this is already in planning, which is great [4].

> New York/London/Chicago would rank highly as areas people feel safe walking around at night in.

I thought NY/Chicago doesn't have as much CCTVs in narrow streets as South Korea?

Was interested in this: NY(784km^2) has about 2000 cameras that NYPD deployed (~3 cameras/km^2). Seoul(605km^2) had about 48697 cameras that the metropolitan government has installed (~80 cameras/km^2).

> Or, similarly, it would suggest that people would not feel safe walking around in areas in Korea that do not have extensive CCTVs.

Basically, every street you can go to has CCTVs in Seoul. The portion of streets without CCTV installed is absurdly low.

> Mass surveillance does not provide much benefit but comes at extreme risk of abuse.

I agree that there is a big risk of abuse here; but I have to disagree with the point that CCTVs provide little benefit. CCTVs allow the arrest rates of 'the five violent crimes' (Murder, robbery, rape, theft, violence) go up from 79% in 2011 to 100% in 2016.
87% of all people agrees to install more CCTVs, 12% thinks that the current CCTV is appropriate; and only 1% thinks that there are too much CCTVs.

IMO, keeping an eye on the government whether they are using CCTVs inappropriately is a better choice than just insisting on not installing CCTVs.
Thanks.

Regarding pixel well depth, I suppose we can have a sensor with greater pixel size and low pixel count, like a 3840 x 2160 sensor in a full-frame camcorder. Since this would be sold as a video-oriented camera, lack of higher resolution will be a problem problem than in a still-oriented camera.

Similarly cities often have overly restrictive minimum housing sizes as well, often induced by low-density zoning, parking requirements, or other laws. That makes economical, tiny apartments for singles/childless couples scarce; so naturally you end up doing what me and almost all my friends in SF do, which is rent out a much larger apartment than you need (3+ bedrooms), probably under rent control because only old buildings are built that way and that's what SF rent control law applies to, and split it between a bunch of roommates.

This constricts the larger apartment housing stock for families, and especially if you're living in the same room as someone else, probably makes your ability to cultivate a romantic relationship harder, too.

This adds up to - American cities ban units both large and small that allow a city to function properly; they simultaneously tend to dramatically underbuild housing altogether for the demand to live in these cities; and then we wonder why, given how prohibitively expensive it is to live in an American city, that they tend to have serious social problems and only the most tolerant/flexible to stressful situations—i.e. the most privileged—can afford and profit from living in them.

One thing I'm struck by living in Tokyo recently, aside seeing way more children than I ever do in SF (against all odds given the low birth rates), is that you can get a small studio for not much money - you'd be lucky to find one in SF within 30 minutes of the city for less than $2,500, but you can get one 15-20 mins from the hottest neighborhoods in Tokyo for like $500-$700. They'll be much smaller, but the lifestyle is also more space-efficient, so I find it to work for my needs as a 27 year old.
I think you're substantially correct that most people don't recognize the risk, but you've actually got the situation backwards:

The last thing you want to do in CA is own your house or have a mostly paid-off mortgage.

Earthquake insurance is crazy for all the reasons you mention (and more), but at the end of the day your non-recourse mortgage is your insurance: if your property is destroyed you can simply walk away.

Edit: I guess I should clarify that walking away from hundreds of thousands of dollars of "home equity" should hurt almost anyone. My point is simply that this protection is built into your mortgage, and is available on dramatically better terms than actual earthquake insurance, which in CA would likely be unable to pay out in the event of "the big one" anyway.
I believe that is their point.

In theory, yes. However as the Germans say "the devil is in the details". The .patch file for magento 1 for PHP7 compatibility is around 1.9 MB (iirc)! In the standard PHP5 project you have literally millions of lines of third party code, that one shold not touch with a stick. Are you really going through all of this code to check if something is maybe going to break at runtime? What if the legacy project has 0 tests?

Another problem are the Docker images. The PHP project still provides Docker Images for 5.6, however to my knowledge they are not updated anymore (perhaps I'm wrong). So what about all the security vulnerabilities in the underlying linux image? (I just verified and the latest php 5.6 image is from January 2019)

Children have to be children. Yes, you have to make them responsible, to have chores, to start treating them like adults early.

But the necessity for exposure to "near-term dangers" is a very American thing to say and I believe that it is wrong.

Yes, children growing up in big cities are more mature. And cynical. And depressed.

The irony of the situation is that big cities are so dangerous nowadays that parents no longer allow their children to play outside unsupervised or to go anywhere by themselves until adolescence.

I grew up in a small city in the eighties and nineties (not in the US) and was walking home or to school, by myself, since I was 7 years old. The mentality back then for raising children was basically "make sure they do their homework and feed them once in a while". I now live in a big city and I couldn't do that with my son, because the environment is not the same. We live in a big city, but I still have to drive him everywhere, even though he's 9 years old.
They’re no more doomed to failure than other planned cities like Milton Keynes[1] in the U.K., Pudong District[2] in Shanghai or Almere[3] in the Netherlands. Sometimes urban planning is done really well, as in Singapore or in the original planning of Manhattan. Sometimes it’s just a disaster, as in Dubai where there’s no municipal sewerage network and there aren’t really street names and addresses as normally understood are useless or non-existent. Sometimes governments let people who hate people design cities because they’re famous, like Le Corbusier and Brasilia. All of these cities work to different extents. They may have glaring problems but people live in them and there’s enough economic activity that they’re growing.

Large scale planner cities are not doomed to failure. Some of them will be done well and thrive and some will be utter disasters, losing all the investors’ money and plentiful public funds. But given the pace of urbanisation in the developing world massive planned city building or expansion of the existing cities is inevitable.

You probably want to install heat pumps instead of resistive heaters. Then you get 3-5J of heat for every Joule of electricity. Retrofitting those into a house with gas heating is quite expensive, so not using fossil fuels for new construction in the first place is probably the right decision.

In Berkeley you can probably slap a small number of solar panels on the roof to produce more electricity than you need for heating (and cooling).
