I think the difference is in branding/positioning, and therefore the mental state of the person engaging with the site and creating content.

Porn = male gaze-y[1], intentionally and overtly about sexual gratification, less about exploration

A free-wheeling blog site = a place open to the exploration of a number of different aspects of identity, of which sexuality is one of them.

In short: If Pornhub were to create a tumblr clone, they'd inherently be enticing people to _produce porn_ rather than producing content which might happen to be somewhat pornographic. There's a huge mental barrier there for lots of people, even if they happen to enjoy viewing porn or producing sexually explicit imagery.

[1] Yes I know women watch porn, the default assumption of porn viewership is still a cis male audience
There is another more effective way to kill Google if they would turn evil. It just takes a number of the biggest and most important websites such as wikipedia, newspapers, stackoverflow and so on to block google in the robots.txt. Users will then think Google is broken because those websites are missing and use another search engine.
I dont think its a cultural thing. Men on average show less empathy and emotion than women. For obvious reasons, child rearing vs hunting.

But most writers and journalists tend to be on the feminine side of the spectrum because that correlates with verbal ability. So this theory has emerged that most men are actually just as emotional as women but are hiding their feelings because society expects them to do it.

Maybe a fringe of men who are all co-incidentally in persuasive fields in academia, entertainment and media exhibit this, but the average male may not.

Thank you! This is exactly what we wanted as well :)
So, let's imagine that Android was an independent entity from Google. Obviously selling the default search engine placement would be one of their main forms of monetization, just like it's for Firefox and iOS.

How would that monetization be done? We know from Firefox and iOS what happens if you sell the outright default with no selection: Google will buy it basically everywhere. That won't increase competition in search at all. To achieve that, you'd need to sell multiple slots. Which is exactly what this proposal ends up doing.

If the behavior of search engine selection ends up exactly the same in Google-owned Android and in the best-case scenario for an independent Android, where's the problem?

> 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.

That seems like a fair criticism though. In addition to the issues with first-price blind bids, a year seems like a really long interval. If it was e.g. monthly, there would at least be some scope for iterative price discovery.
Not the OP but I would describe my anxiety in identical terms.

When I feel the doubt about past memories/decisions start to creep, I whip out my phone and make some brief notes (usually keep one document per trigger). I will just write a few bullet points detailing what facts I am sure of right now along with the reassurances I am telling myself in that moment.

Then, next time it happens I open the same note, read my previous thoughts and relax into it knowing I’ve been here before.

I suppose it’s just an anxiety journal, nothing novel, but it works for me. Over time as I accumulate more facts the effect sort of compounds and simply knowing I’ve got the notes is enough to push the anxiety away.
Even if there would be, is it even possible anymore? Or is the algo so controlled by AI and ML that it is not even possible anymore?

> Is the AMP cache any different from any other CDN caching assets other than that it is owned and prioritized by Google?

Yes, it's substantially different, since the purpose of Google's AMP cache is to serve pages linked to from a Google origin. Google has to know which search query you entered to render the results page, so prefetching some of the actual results doesn't leak any information. If you prefetch from arbitrary domains, you leak information about people making a search to those domains, even if they don't click through.

(And likewise for other entities that are running their own AMP caches, for links hosted on their own origins.)

That's very clearly the actual technical problem being solved; if you set out to solve the problem of privacy-preserving prefetching of search results with the tech from 5 years ago, you'll inevitably end up with something like AMP.

> Does that fact alone make it faster? If so, are we as a community okay with this imperialist strategy by Google?

Irrelevant, since you're basing both of these questions on inaccurate assumptions.

Due to the ocean currents, i.e. cold water coming from the North on the US East coast, and hot water coming back from the South on the European West coast, it does not make much sense to compare latitude on the 2 sides of the Atlantic.

It isn't just you, the article reads almost exactly like something i'd have conjured up at 15 years old.

It sounds to me like it is designed to massage the egos of disaffected under achievers to make them feel that they might be special; that the day to day humdrum is a result of a war against their special, now dampened, genius. In a world where the masses want to identify as mentally ill and where psychiatrists expand the definition of aberrant mental constructions and outward behaviours it is hardly surprising this might sell some books.

I doubt this book has much to add over Thinking Fast, Thinking Slow et al.

I live in a country in which women get a lot of time off after giving birth, men get some days and every family receives monthly cheques for one or two years after a baby is born. A new family can rake up a lot of free money either directly or with discounts, preferential treatment, bonuses, and support.

I'm against any type of incentive for newborns, because it all comes from the state, which means public money, which means taxes. I don't want to pay for other people's two-year vacation leave in which they play happy family while their employer is missing an employee and getting compensation with public money.

To me, if you can't or won't work, you must be replaced.

>At the very minimum, they're preying on children who don't have the capacity to understand the depths of addiction

I hear this kind of thing all the time, but how many of them are actually preying on children? Let alone preying on children, how many of them even have a substantial amount of children as collatoral damage?

This is not some kind of rhetorical question, I'm genuinely curious as to the numbers here. I'm only really familiar with Asian "gachapon" style games that do this kind of thing and I don't think childen are genuinely a large part of that demographic.

I'm the same. I never had too much issue reading, though I do avoid anything overly literally as the language just gets in the way of story. But writing has always been impossible for me, even with keyboards. The whole idea of 'padding' out essays did my head in at uni. Interestingly on the speaking vs writing point I naturally use a lot of tone and body language to convey my meaning. That might be my acting background but I also wonder if it's a compensating mechanism for struggling with words.

I am not an economist, but in this world of negative interest-rates (now common in Europe), another reason for cashless is to prevent people from keeping cash at home, behavior that make sense when the bank is making you pay for having a positive account.

And as a cryptocurrency enthusiast, this cashless trend is also a way to make it harder to hide your crypto assets: hand-to-hand exchange of cash against crypto is indeed one of the best anonymization way.
Is your country in a place with low birthrates and propping up its population with immigration?

I don't think your view is inconsistent, necessarily, but it comes down to different views about the role of the state, whether new generations are important, etc.

Anyway, in some ways we should be doing what we can do reduce birthrates as much as possible before we destroy ourselves and our life support system, but on the other hand making it possible for people to engage in about the most basic function of being an animal without destroying their lives isn't all bad.

I think there is a massive difference between long-range commute and just living in a city and needing a place to charge. Yes, if I wanted to drive down from Newcastle to London, or hop on the ferry to Amsterdam and drive down to Berlin, absolutely no problem - there is enough charging points along motorways that you will get pretty much anywhere without any issues.

But if you live in Newcastle, say in Jesmond, fancy terraced house with no private parking space - where are you going to charge your car? In one of the 2 public spaces that are nearby? Drive few miles out to a quick charger near the motorway? At one of the public car parks where the charging time is limited? Like, I can't see any way to do that that wouldn't be a massive inconvenience every few days.

That's the point of the OS, offering a standard runtime environment.

Affordable solar panels don't get 260W/m^2 peak. The solar panels on a car don't track the sun, so average power output is way below peak.

You don't get 1.3kW per square meter for 4 hours a day. 42,339 MW of PV installations produced 39,401 GWh of energy in 2017 in Germany[1], so on average you get peak power for just two hours a day with panels that are angled appropriately.

The Invisibility of Length Contraction
This concept seems unhelpfully reductive and transparently targeted at people who feel a need for self-congratulation on account of being alienated by the "normal" people, although alienation is paradoxically also portrayed as one of the markers of being painfully ordinary.

"Many ‘normal’ people suffer from not being hypersane:
they have a restricted worldview, confused priorities,
and are wracked by stress, anxiety and self-deception.
[...] In contrast, hypersane people are calm, contained
and constructive. It is not just that the ‘sane’ are
irrational but that they lack scope and range, [...]"

All of these things are orthogonal traits and can occur in an individual in any combination. For example, I would categorize myself as having a moderately open worldview, mostly straight priorities, not wracked by stress and anxiety, moderate to severe self-deception, calm, contained, and mostly constructive. So which one am I? A barely conscious pleb or an advanced rational intelligence?

It seems to me these kinds of characterizations are really the product of people trying to build a framework that appreciates their (subjectively underappreciated) positive traits. It's obviously not wrong to celebrate those traits, especially when confronted with their opposites so publicly on a daily basis, but the problem arises when we're trying to bundle those traits up under a buzzword package name. People are very diverse, and their traits and behaviors develop over time.

I allege that it is more helpful to look at the positively connotated traits mentioned here in isolation, and work on improving aspects of ourselves in a targeted manner, as opposed to subscribing to a blanket identity (in this case hypersanity, which is ultimately meaningless). There needs to be less emphasis on "what identity am I innately" and more emphasis on "what properties do I like about myself and which ones do I want to improve". The difference here is not only one of nuance and constructiveness, but also one of fundamental outlook.

I don't think it's impossible to make efficient electron apps. Vscode and discord, for example, tend to be reasonable in my experience. I think it's just that the time saved by not having to maintain cross platform software isn't being reinvested into performance/memory optimisation.

Moreover the ease of developing electron apps has opened the desktop ecosystem to web developers who more often tend to have bad habits because of how forgiving most web dev is.
Bananas are an important staple with many potential uses. A guy in Bali came up with a process that makes flour from green bananas. The resulting bread products are delicious.

I don't think paranoid is the right word, since it implies some kind of (usually unfounded) fear. I don't get the impression that Stallman is actually afraid of anything in particular; he's just doing this to thwart what he thinks are bad practices. So I'd call it extreme, but not paranoid.
Based on empirical evidence, it seems that humanity can make just one sort of efficient Electron app, and that slot's already filled by VS Code.
