> If I understand correctly

That's more or less it. Silence can be as telling as its absence in cases like these, I think.

> That's not being suggested.

Fair enough, apologies for creating the impression if that happened. How should we address this problem without cutting off things like 8chan, though? I think that once people start advocating against the right of others to exist it's time for society to act. It makes sense that we should focus on the individuals actually contributing to these boards and de-radicalise them where possible. So doing, that reduces demand for things like 8chan. But that doesn't mean that 8chan itself isn't inherently problematic.

To be clear, this is not to say that message boards are all inherently problematic and we need to think before acting. Insofar as you urge caution on this in general, I agree. 8Chan has gone out of its way to eliminate any grey area on this subject, though. The behaviour of its administrators towards law enforcement in the aftermath of the Christchurch attack isn't even that unusual for them.

> I simply think it's unlikely

Totally, lol. I think that's a fair conclusion to draw. I just don't want it to overshadow what I think is a positive action.

> consequentialism

All I'm saying is that if violent radicalism is the enemy of a coherent society that respects everyone's right to exist (which these guys pretty clearly say), society should be prepared to do something to protect itself. And that means shutting down the services that recruit new gunmen, because they're a part of this. The ends don't justify the means, the actions of 8chan participants do.

Edit: Thanks so much for taking the time to write all that, by the way. One of the main reasons I come to this place is for people willing to walk through their arguments like this.

> Here in Indiana, the utilities AND banks are all private entities.

It's likely there's one (or at most, a small handful) of each utility enjoying a state-supported monopoly, even if it's technically run by a private company. The same is not true for banks - I can sign up for one of hundreds of nationwide or online banks even if all the local ones decide I'm an ass.
the problem here is that in one case you're sending the trolley into a tunnel where the potential harm or prevention thereof is largely based on your preexisting (and likely incomplete) assumptions.

what if rather than being a viper pit of nefarious hatemongers seeking to brainwash the youth into committing acts of violence, imageboards tend to be popular among a subset of the population more prone to depression & more severe mental illnesses which also happens to the encompass the the kinds of loser psychopath edgelords who commit these sorts of crimes.
the whole response around these events simply shows we've learned nothing from columbine and are still in essence trying to eradicate the trenchcoat mafia.
> doing virtually nothing to limit the ability of psychopathic losers to kill large numbers of people

Deplatforming 8chan isn't about limiting the ability of these people to kill large numbers (that would require effective gun control) - it's about removing a source of provocation, radicalisation, cheering, etc. for them both before and after.
My bank (Bunq) allows me to use offline and online debit cards, for free. Linked to any IBAN (I can have 25 max). The online debit card's CVV code changes every 5 minutes which is convenient enough.
How do you think they bill you when you drive through the system without a transponder?
This still happens in Australia too. The primary reason to do it this way is that you don’t need a person standing there all day to sell items. A working farm cannot spare a person full time.

I imagine that farms stop the practice when it’s no longer profitable due to dishonesty and theft. It’s only a small secondary source of income in any case. The main income is wholesale anyway.
I know exactly how it happens. Engineering projects take a long time. 90% of the effort lives in the basement where nobody can see it; getting data from some other system, optimizing queries, spinning up the servers... nothing at all user-facing. So to the untrained eye, 90% of the time, programmers are doing nothing. And that 90% can be weeks, months, even years.

I don't think any of this is unique to software engineering, either. You don't just one day decide to build a bridge and show up at the bank of the river with a cement mixer tomorrow. To someone that wants to drive over the river, it looks like no progress is being made on the project. Hence, lots of meetings (delaying the project further) to make sure everyone is working hard enough. (Because there is always "that one guy" who actually isn't doing anything. And it looks the same as someone who is working hard to an outsider.)

As for why we spend money hiring people that don't actually do anything, tracking the progress of other people's work... I think it's just loss aversion in action. If you spend 10% of the day working on timesheets and pay an additional employee to check up on them... you know where your money's going. But if someone just shows up to work and does nothing, then they're stealing from you and must be punished! It is human nature.

I don't know what we did in the past that's different from today. Somehow we got to the moon. But now companies are so bloated that even doing nothing seems like it requires 30,000 employees. I don't have much hope for the future generation of megaprojects. And, you know, we're not really doing them anymore. I wonder what changed. Or maybe looking back at the all the achievements of the entire human race at once makes it difficult to put the present day into perspective.
Three massive pieces of wrongness in this post.

First, people in America can't own guns that fire '10 rounds a second' without a class 3 firearms license, which is very rare. Such guns are basically never used in mass shootings.

Second, depending on who you need to defend your home from, you may want such a gun. For example, if government or government sanctioned groups are a threat. An example of this is the killings of white farmers in South Africa. Is not just about burglars, it's about gas chambers and political threats. Always has been.

Finally, redefining safety as freedom is a truly absurd abuse of language which wipes out a critical distinction that has been heavily discussed for a long time. If this is what it takes for you to make your point make sense, your point doesn't make sense.

Just admit it. You want more safety. You're willing to give up freedom (or rather, sacrifice the freedom of others) to get it. No need to play ridiculous semantic games to pretend there are no tradeoffs here.
Can confirm for perl. We are doing the very same. It's a huge win.

Differences:

We never free empty pools.
Our arenas are just single linked lists, no need for the prev.

Notes:

For a statically compiled perl the biggest win is to avoid arena allocation (mmap) at all. Data and code is made static. That's around 10-20% of the runtime (for shortrunning programs).
Also we rarely free at the end. The OS does it much better than free(). Only the mandatory DESTROY calls and FileIO finalizers are executed.
> I also don't see any interest in making the stock prices change every nano second. A quote a day can be enough if you are an investor, not a speculator.

Well, there isn't any interest in it per se, but that is intrinsic to how fast we can make trades... Somebody offers the lowest sell price and somebody offers the highest buy price. The "value" constantly changes as those two highs and lows fluctuate based on who decides they'll sell for lower than the lowest offer or who decides they will buy for higher than the highest bid.

Unless you're saying that those offers/bids should only be accepted once/day and can't be changed until the next day? That's the only way I could forsee changing the quote once/day.
So a large percent of people have a crappy job and work with crappy people and have crappy bosses. The last century of management still hasn't solved that issue, so it's likely going to be an issue for the next century.

I ask myself these questions:

1. Do I have a life outside of work? "Yes" is a good thing. But "No" is not a deal breaker.

2. Is my identity of myself too entwined in the corporation? If "yes" it's time to do things entirely unrelated to work. They're paying me to do work, not sit around and stew how unfair they're treating me after all the loyalty I've shown them.

3. Are the people there decent human beings that don't know how to manage, or are they back stabbing assholes?
The former is far more forgivable than the latter. Once the culture of back-stabbing starts, you're not gong to fix it ever.

4. Are the hours you're working actually making a difference? IOW have you been told to work 60 hours a week on a project that got canceled? This one is rough, because you're not getting those hours back, nor are you going to get to get a bonus for working hard on a canceled project. At what point did it become clear things weren't working?

5. What does my job enable me to do that I couldn't do without it? Expensive hobbies or travel?

6. Is work/life balance a two way street? "Yes" awesome. Again a "No" is not necessarily a deal breaker. Many people have jobs they need to be on call for or stay late for.

7. Am I growing? Am I learning how to deal with difficult people? Or is this a wasted amount of energy?

8. How long does it take me to reset from "anger" and "frustration" to calm and productive? If I can't leave in the evening and forget about work then something's wrong.
Very good deep fake, still pretty damn fake to me.

Efficiency is also more important than it seems. You can have lots of low quality, half-baked output. How much forethought do we put into what we will work on to begin with? Some projects and ideas are not worth the effort. Or an alternative solution to a problem is preferable over one you’ve been hammering away at for days, and would be easier to implement.

And in the realm of programming, it’s often easy to take shortcuts even though later on they wind up costing more time for you or others involved: omitting documentation, not making something reproducible, poor code quality, etc.

Having spent most of my career in academia I see a lot of the work makes this trade off: efficiency is sacrificed for a sloppy, immediate “speedy” solution. You need to find a balance and think through problems, considering not only what is immediately in front of you but also what you’ll be doing in a month or year. Otherwise you’ll wind up with a project or codebase that begins to drag your productivity and output with it.
"when you punch someone you need to pull your arm back, before you launch it forward. If you don’t your hit will be weak."

It's a cute way to think in opposites, but unfortunately as punching advice, it's untrue. Punch force comes from body mass x acceleration, not arm mass x acceleration.

There are couple ways. You can compile UEFI for QEMU (OVMF package or possibly compile coreboot with Tianocore payload). Another way is just output. UEFI gives you shell, so you can see output and in UEFI it's much easier to deal with this stuff.

If you use coreboot and libpayload it's much easier because it offers you built-in GDB server you can connect to via serial port.

There is a zero-sum game in the some sense if you focus on potential buyers. If you buy out all the onions in a grocery store (and continue to do so once they restock), eventually the grocery store is going to start raising onion prices. Thus anyone purchasing onions after you will suffer a slightly higher price. In theory, the long term price of a stock should be the sum of its discounted future cash flows. If you bid up a stock through purchases, anyone who wanted to purchase the stock after you (assuming your decision to purchase did not affect their decision) will suffer a slightly higher purchase price, most likely leading to reduced future gains. Liquidity is gained for any sellers.
One would think that insurance companies would jump through flaming hoops to get their diabetes clients the best possible treatment. It is such an expensive condition (I would guess the most expensive), which just gets worse with time.

My sister has T1, and it's a sh!tty disease. She's young, lives a very healthy lifestyle, but still these complications keep creeping up.

I (and my sister) are very lucky to live in a country with socialized healthcare, so there's no financial burden on her - but I can only imagine how expensive it would be for those without that option - worst case the uninsured; more so in the long run.
Most people cant't even see that the Onion is satire... Half baked fakes are already far more difficult to spot.

No, the author shows that some random computer vision tool focuses on more structural aspects of the buildings. Assuming that is related at all to what "the eye" does is ridiculous.
That was an empirical statement. Inasmuch as it was a value judgement, it was a condemnation of hand-rolling your own mocks. Which people seem to do with an alarming regularity, and with a fairly consistently appalling degree of skill.

Yes there is a middle. It's a cultural problem. Too many people get away with it. By spending some money and cracking down on it it would remind people this isn't acceptable behavior and change the culture. Once the culture is changed it becomes easier to focus on the real threats. We don't need to throw everybody in jail, but a fine here and there (ala speeding tickets) would go a long way to reminding people that this kind of behavior is wrong.

You talked a lot about why you think guns are not necessary in a peaceful society. Of course, this isn't why people think that citizens should be allowed to have them. The reason is to resist organized violence, which can arise over time or without warning. It's not just about stopping burglars.

However the more critical problem with what you wrote is that it doesn't actually attempt to disprove anything I said. You simply reiterated a bunch of arguments against gun ownership.

You didn't actually say why adding to the list of things you're not allowed to do here makes you more free. And I think that's because it's definitionally impossible to demonstrate.

Would you say that alcohol prohibition 'expands freedom' because it reduces drunk driving deaths?

The definition of freedom is being allowed to do things. It doesn't mean being allowed to do only good things, or things which are good in some particular person's opinion. It means I can do something that you would rather I did not do. That's freedom. Freedom to do what others want you to do is not freedom.
Because managers also have managers. If the managers at the highest level think developing software is pretty similar to packing widgets in a factory, they understand and want to see the Frederick Windsor Taylor school of management in the engineering department.

For the first couple of years, you fight against this, passionately arguing for genuinely good engineering practices.

But every time there’s a problem, you compromise and it creeps a bit more in the direction of ‘command and control’. And all those little changes add up to the results you observe.

What about those communities? I'm sure they can stay on 8chan, or find somewhere else?

I'd not say the recent far-right terrorism is just from some individual psychopaths with no value for human life. There's a ton of far-right/alt-right ideas out there, on platforms like 8chan, which actively demonizes certain groups of people. It's not like these shootings are just crazy people who just want to kill people at random; they want to kill the people they see as the "enemy".

I'd recommend sticking to POST requests with body that fetches the data you need. I know it's semantically odd because the POST request not creating a "resource" on the server. But it's practically very useful as it'll work well with client libraries, load balancers etc.

You can get some inspiration from GraphQL for your use case. All GraphQL queries are POST requests with body specifying what data the client needs.

Youtube is getting absurd these days with ads.
I have yet to see concrete examples of any of this from family members, friends, or relatives. People believe what they want to believe so I am sure plenty of people are "tricked" because they see some half-ass adulterated content trying to pass itself off as the truth, that they want to believe is real. In the end that's a question of belief not a question of ability.

I remember seeing examples from conflicts where video from another event was passed off by the mainstream media to spin the story. It was not until it was called out because people found the real source and posted it debunking what was shown.

I expect more or less the same process with deep fakes. Find the source material and then show how it was adulterated to produce the fake.
I'm bullish on Apple Card.

Compared to my MajorBank card, I expect that Apple Card will have somewhat worse rewards. But the process - signup, spending tracking and notifications, accessing rewards, freezing, cancellation - will be leagues better, and privacy will be better too. That will be their edge.

The MajorBank mobile app is weird and janky feeling, with lots of ads and other nonsense in it. It pushes me to open investment accounts and take out a mortgage. It tells me I can get 10% back at KidsPizzaRestaurant. It promotes "offers we've selected just for you based on your relationship with MajorBank," through virtue of monitoring my spending history.

I expect none of that from Apple. In my mind the risks are 1. Goldman Sachs and 2. Apple's financialization / being incentivized to push people into debt.

deepfakes still look fake

It should be obvious that the deep fakes that don't look wrong will be (wrongly) classified as "not deep fakes", so the premise of "deepfakes still look fake" is completely flawed. "deepfakes that look fake still look fake" isn't very useful.
