> structure

I don't see the connection of this kind of structure, with 'iconicity'. Iconicity is usually more concerned with the form of a symbolic shape and the connection to its meaning. Structural aspects can play a role, but they are still connected to some meaning (which connects it to the human understanding).

Source code in a text editor is not a 'picture' or 'shape' or 'icon'.
This thing doesn't address the problem it was actually meant to address which is to stop an anticompetitive practice. The spirit of the law in relation to antitrust is that you can't abuse a monopoly in one market to gain a monopoly in another. That's why it wasn't acceptable that Google's Android would set Google to be the default search engine and offer no other options.

Now Google says to those other search engines: Hey, you CAN be the default. But you're going to have to give us ALL your profits.

How is that any less anti-competitive than what they were doing before?

Footnote: Why am I saying ALL of their profits? Well it's four slots. Google is going to be one of them. Microsoft and Yahoo are going to bid whatever it takes to be on the list. -- Now there's ONE slot left for everyone who isn't part of the existing search oligopoly like Ecosia, Qwant, DuckDuckGo and so forth.

Now imagine if this was open outcry: Ecosia bids X dollars. Qwant outbids them by offering X+1 dollars for that fourth slot. Well: If Ecosia knows they would still be profitable even if they had to pay X+2 dollars, that's what they're going to bid, isn't it? They hit a limit only at the point where they know that the deal would turn unprofitable. The guy that gets the slot would, in open outcry, end up paying the next guy's profit plus one dollar. But that's not the model. They're doing sealed bids and you'll have to actually pay what you bid, so... -- That's why I'm saying ALL their profit.
> Breast feeding is absolutely important, but if you think that's the only thing you need to do in order to take care of a newborn, you might be in for a shock.

Breastfeeding is a necessary part of taking care of a newborn that men cannot do. Women can do all the parts that you listed, plus the vital component of breastfeed. Hence, it makes sense to encourage moms to stay home with babies. Dads should stay home too, because the ideal is for mom and dad to be at home playing with babies (isn't that everyone's dream??). However, most people are not independently wealthy, so compromises are made, and dad goes to work.

In your previous argument you were comparing what nets did years ago vs now, claiming the only difference is accuracy. Obviously, you either were referring to the results (which now are clearly more accurate), not the methods, or you incorrectly assumed nothing have changed in the methods.

In the first case, your new argument does not make sense, because the complexity of implementation does not matter to the result, and there's a clear improvement to it.

In the second case, I can assure you lots changed. The recent major things being ReLUs, self-supervised learning and attention mechanisms.
> Not including the domain in the certificate at all. If an identity is verified, it's verified. Why limit where it can be used, or try and assert some unrelated fact?

I strongly disagree. It is still a domain that is entered into the URL box. On the web, websites are defined by their domain name. That is the thing I want verified. For EV I also want verification the domain name matches a company that should have that name. But the core thing is a domain name.

Now being able to just dig into the lower level of Futures at work, I'd say even that is not that hard. You just write the `poll` function and then pattern match inside. There are even nice macros, such as the `ready!` that helps you with some of the boilerplate.

Cash is freedom - from not having to give your details on small purchases, and from money deposits you have no control over, and which can be taken away from you by governments, including those of other countries. I can't understand why Scandinavians, and in particular Swedes, are so busy heading into a dystopian future with mandatory cashless payments, when they're otherwise very much libertarian (in the original sense) and freedom-loving folks.
There is not even close to a shortage of bananas.

IANABE (I am not a banana expert) but I know that no one suggested there is a shortage right now. What's threatened is the world's supply of Cavendish bananas which is what every Western country imports. Prior to that everyone ate Gros Michel bananas, but practically all plantations growing that particular crop were wiped out in the space of 30 years by Panama Disease. Cavendish was the response - it was Panama Disease resistant, but about 15 years ago the disease started attacking Cavendish crops. The concern is that this means we're a decade or two away from losing Cavendish and we don't have a suitable replacement (because, as people have said in this thread, other bananas aren't as tasty to Western palettes).

To post "Nah, there's no problem" shows you don't quite understand that problem, and to cite that you've seen a few big banana plantations as evidence that the problem isn't a real one just compounds the issue.

If Panama Disease mutates to attack the plantations you saw they could all be gone in a decade. That's how virulent the disease is. It is a problem.

The Readme isn't explicit about this, but given how little functionality there is (notes only have a message and Boolean for "done"), and given that the Readme briefly explains the architecture, it does indeed look like it's meant for learning about these technologies. I get the impression it's meant to be readable by beginners, so it's perhaps intended as a demonstration for others' benefit rather than just for the author's own benefit.

Spend another five minutes doing research and it feels like Ecosia goes above and beyond to make their purpose pretty legitimized. E.g. the company is a certified b-corporation. The founders donated their ownership of the company back to the share. (https://blog.ecosia.org/trees-not-profits/)

Sure, google has done a great job building the ecosystem. But Ecosia doesn't appear to deserve the skepticism I see here in the comments.
> causing them to do things like step into a crosswalk unexpectedly after a car is already halfway through the intersection.

Every place I’ve lived in the US, the pedestrian’s right of way is maintained as long as they enter the crosswalk before the car does, and the status of the adjoining intersection is immaterial. In California law, there’s legally a crosswalk at every intersection with sidewalks, even if there aren’t any markings on the road. A green signal doesn’t absolve a driver of these responsibilities; just like with a blind corner, drivers must slow down to a speed where they can react appropriately to pedestrians.

Pedestrians are so rare, however, that cars don’t know how to deal with them. I’ve never seen a driver in the US stop for someone who is waiting to enter a crosswalk, only ones that have actually started to cross.

To be fair, dark GTK themes don't really work. I say this as someone who uses dark GTK themes. Far too many applications end up with dark text on a dark background, and Firefox applies your theme colors to websites so websites also end up with dark text on dark backgrounds. At least a dark mode created by the application's authors usually works.

> As it stands, I would be interested since I like the idea of being able to move from any property to another property without negotiating a new lease or contract - it means I'm not locked to any particular economic region.

^ This is one aspect of housing we think is missing and that we're trying to support. More and more people are ready to build home ownership, but still want the flexibility to move homes or cities. So they get torn between renting or buying. By building the ownership position in a real estate fund, instead of a single home, that ownership position can move with you to new homes.

Re Rent: Monthly rent is set based on the value of the home a member moves into and local rental rates for the area. It should be in-line with what you'd expect to pay in rent for a similar home outside of Arrived and is transparent to members at the outset.

Re Profits: Members participate as LPs in our real estate fund and receive a percentage of rent and appreciation which adds to their investment over their lease term. We take a long-term buy and hold position in the homes so appreciation is based on re-appraisals of the homes over time to incorporate changes in value.

> Is improving the market for startups like Ecosia your goal, or just to decrease Google's marketshare (by increasing the market share of other big tech search engines like Bing/Amazon Product Search)?

While supporting startups is a good aspiration, it's not the purpose of antitrust action. The job of the regulator should be to punish Google for its illegal conduct, prevent it from committing additional crimes, and create opportunities for competitors so that a free market can re-establish itself.

Whether the competitors are big or small is outside of its purview. A competitive market for general web search in which there are 5 big healthy firms working to win over customers is absolutely an improvement over a monopoly.

Allowing Google to further enrich itself via the remedy does not support these goals and I suspect there's zero chance the EU will let it happen.

Also, the regulator should ensure that Google doesn't do silly things like highlight Amazon Product Search on a screen where you choose which engine you want to search the whole web with. I'm fairly confident they will do their job. These guys are not amateurs.

Yup. I had a serious anxiety condition since childhood. But my parents were so disgusted by my fear that they made me dissociate from it. I went to doctors and said something is wrong, they asked, what? And I could not answer because I could no longer feel my fear. I went for 30 years without knowing my problem. Society has a serious attitude problem towards men and it is seriously damaging a huge number of people.
Actually, your first choice, i.e. random list, would be great! If, as a consumer, the search engine you end up with would end up not being to your liking, you'd hit the browser extension marketplace and look for another default search engine and search engines would face (more or less) a level playing field.

This MAY seem like an absurdity, if one has been in the internet channel economics business for so long that one can't remember what a free market looks like, but THAT would be a free market.

My issue with this article is that it elevates the ‘melody’ dimension as somehow more worthy than the ‘sonic texture’ dimension.

I think both have equal merit and I enjoy complexity along both dimensions.

Modern music seems to have the highest sonic texture complexity of any music so far and is enjoyable for that.

Bach has high melodic complexity but low texture complexity.

I suspect high complexity along all 4 dimensions simultaneously is too much for the average listener. Artists like Squarepusher and Aphex Twin get close to being high complexity along every dimension but are regarded as ‘challenging’.

I’m not so sure. Suburbia where I am has a lot of plants, and abandoned sections likely have even more. That’s a shelter from weather and a food source.

My suburban hives averaged way more than industry averages (65kgs each) and they are suburban. Good beekeeping wasn’t why.

Cool, yes. But "predicting" isn't how I see it.

We wanted anonymous, private and untraceable digital cash. Many people worked on it. There were several ~centralized electronic currencies, and they all got taken down, sooner or later. Because of FinCEN "know your customer" requirements. E-gold lasted until 2009. Liberty Reserve lasted until 2013, and the founder went to jail. Pecunix still sort of exists in a weird stunted way.

So anyway, Bitcoin was developed as a non-centralized electronic currency. Which would be far harder to take down.

That's not the subject. But do you really think they didn't even consider wireless?

Turns out it is really hard. You need a low latency, reliable ~10Gbps link. You also need the battery to be power all the that stuff. Putting everything inside the headset would be ideal but you also have to consider that weight affects comfort and immersion significantly.

The first semi successful attempt is TPCast but it is far from perfect. I don't know much about the Vive wireless but it seems to work better but still have its own set of issues. Both are also rather expensive (~$300).

So for now, we seem to be stuck with fully integrated low end or wired high end. I think we still need to wait a bit more for wireless high end.

That $144 a month is a deal considering it's just the price of a few instances that you'd normally provision anyway if you were rolling your own k8s cluster, and it manages the control plane administration for you. The moment your hand-rolled k8s cluster goes the way of so many horror stories [1] that savings evaporates into hours of expensive engineering labor hours wasted.

They covered this in the panel discussion. In short, some car manufacturers seem willing to allow this under their normal battery warranty (i.e. they expect this to be not much of an issue) to minimize risk for the user and take away concerns around this. Some manufacturers are already building inverters into the cars to facilitate vehicle to grid (and vehicle to vehicle even). Most manufacturers (e.g. VW, Renault) expect this to be common in a few years and are looking to standardize how this works.

Swapping batteries is of course covered by existing warranties and obviously this is already technically doable as part of normal car service. So, no special new design is needed for this. I imagine this typically involves unplugging a bunch of cables, loosening a few bolts, etc. Doesn't sound like rocket science. In any case, your base assumption that this becomes a regular thing for EV owners is probably simply wrong. It's rare now and it will probably not become a lot more common. EV batteries are pretty good.
Other porn sites with user contributed content exist. This is not as big a problem as you make it out to be. Not to the extent that a big company like Automattic wouldn't be able to solve it and keep that quite profitable interest group on board. The reason they won't is because they don't like to go against the grain of the currently advertiser-mandated vision of an exclusively family-friendly internet — where 'internet' here means the ad-supported part of it; i.e., all of the bigger commercial content silos.

The outrage comes when people stumble upon photos of minors in the early pubescent or even prepubescent stage of development intended to titillate. That is, content that is fairly consistently classed as child pornography, and no apparent action is undertaken to purge that content.
