> Yes, that's how databases work.

The article is arguing for end-to-end-encryption, which is perfectly do-able for google. It's not a matter of "how databases work" at all, like literally not even a bit. It's a matter of what features the company has chosen to implement.

> If we use this same logic, is Apple not being private with your data?

Has Apple launched a "confidential" email mode that does not protect the ostensibly-confidential emails? Google is making privacy claims and not backing them up by actually making them private. But... No, Apple is not being that private with your data! I'd love it if Apple worked to make E2E encryption easier in iCloud mail, and they should do so.

Then take it up with the justice system (or intelligence), don't blame Epstein for taking the sweetheart deal, or use that deal to justify further punishment. Similarly, when cops avoid jail time for shooting incidents, society should stop referring to them as murderers when they are acquitted (Zimmerman, Yanez, ...). Accept the decisions of the court, or work to improve them. You have no right to play your own judge. Especially in the Epstein case it is common to take allegations as facts, and this is ugly, since a judge has not even rendered a decision (yet, here we are using allegations as justification for societal excommunication).

Even if you don't have chef/puppet/etc managing at least some level of fleet configuration (if you don't, your org is hopeless anyway and ssh-at-scale is not a first problem to solve), it's oh-so-easy to put just your pubkeys somewhere (S3, eg) and manage them via, say, git.

Puppet's ssh key management only adds and removes public keys that you specify, but leaves other keys intact. Which means that a hacker can place a backdoor key in authorized_keys that is not going to be spotted by Puppet. Cert-only auth prevents this class of attack from the beginning.

See /r/natureismetal [0] -- or any nature documentary, for that matter -- and you'll see many animals are eaten while still alive. Predators tend to do the bare minimum to subdue their prey before devouring it. See how this eagle eats its prey [1], for example.

This is true of lions and wildebeest, sea lions and penguins, alligators and zebra, snakes with frogs, frogs with insects, and more. The prey is devoured while still alive.

Yes, this is because Google isn't optimizing their search results to return you the information you want, but rather to optimize their revenue. Showing you regurgitated spam sites like wikihow and pinterest means you go back to the search results to find something relevant, which increases the probability you click on an ad.

Furthermore, if they show you spam sites, which also have google ads on them, then you're more likely to click on an ad and give google money than if they show you wikipedia, which doesn't have ads.

They don't want you to go to wikipedia, because it won't make them any money.

They are sacrificing their product quality for profit. This is the general trend in corporations with a fiduciary responsibility to their shareholders, rather than their customers.

In this case, the customer is the ad buyer, not the searcher, so those of us looking for things are actually 4th in line for prioritization, as it's like this:

Shareholders come first
Ad buyers come second
Ad real estate providers third
Searchers forth

We need a search engine where the search results are the product, rather than the people searching. We are the product being sold to the Ad buyers.

Maybe the example could be a bit clearer. In the example, the point is that they don't know all of the variables. I would define this sort of (faulty) deterministic reasoning literally as not accounting for hidden variables. If we know absolutely every variable and potential confounding factor, then deterministic reasoning works and is valid. The problem is that in pretty much every case we don't know all of the variables, and so we can't generalize from a finite number of cases. The solution that the author is giving is to think in probabilities instead.

> A mostly instant death for most mammals in the woods

What woods are you hanging out in? Most animals I see get eaten are drowned, asphyxiated, bled out, poisoned, or just plain eaten alive. Some animals (raptors, cats) kill for sport, or to defend territory.

I agree that the way animals are treated by humans is disturbing and should be fixed, but an animal's life and death is tough even in nature. We should focus more on their quality of life, but death is death. (Incidentally, a calmer/quicker death creates more flavorful meat, so there's plenty of reason to be more humane)

Hmmm, I don't think that's what's going on here. I think the critics are making specific critiques relevant to the supposedly novel nature of Holberton and Lambda.

While I was initially supportive of these institutions, I'm now a lot more skeptical. I just don't see the value-add. The incentives don't seem to be aligned and the fact that these institutions are backed by VCs makes me especially suspicious since the VC model requires rapid growth or else dissolution.

That financial model makes absolutely no sense for an educational institution. If you're getting an education you want the institution to be around for a while. Whereas if you're a VC you could care less if it dies if it doesn't deliver 10X returns.

I don't see a positive ending for these types of institutions unless something really radical changes in their business models.

Is confidential mode actually trying to sell itself as an encrypted email service? Google's articles about confidential mode doesn't mention encryption [1], so I'm not sure why tutanota is focusing so much on the lack of encryption. It seems to me that confidential mode is more about providing proof of receipt via SMS, and making it slightly harder for employees to forward emails to people not meant to receive it.

If wanted to send an encrypted email, I'd do my encryption and decryption client side in my own terminal. Don't ever let the service's email client get access to the plaintext.

Most weight your body actually loses (as in not water) is lost as carbon in the CO2 you exhale.
I've found that to be true as well. One thing I do is I eat before dinner (especially when going out for dinner). If I'm really hungry I'll order the largest thing on the menu and overeat. If I have a banana before going out I'll make a wiser choice.

Losing weight is all about hunger management. Eat free foods like fruits and vegetables when you're hungry. Eat 3 balanced meals a day. That's it, that's all it takes.

If you turn losing weight into a job by counting calories and doing meal planning and whatnot you'll quit because you already have a job. So just use some basic common sense judgments and make sure you're never too hungry because that's when you'll make mistakes.
The thing is that people will react like that about anything regardless of her being right or wrong.

> "The chess players are forgetting to eat. "

This surprises me. I find that being hungry dulls my edge and makes me noticeably less clever. It's easy for me to forget to eat if I'm doing something mindless, but when I'm actively problem solving I find that I become more aware of my hunger (and other forms of general discomfort.)

This seems fairly quaint compared to all the other tracking we are subjected to, to be honest.
I like advertising. I don't like distractions and I don't like being tracked but I enjoy seeing ads for products in fields I like. I'm old though and throughout the 80s and early 90s subscribed to several magazines in large part to read the ads. I loved the ads in Byte, Creative Computing, Compute!, Wired, the Game Developer Magazine. I learned about all kinds of products I wanted. If all ads on the net somehow were (a) related to the content and (b) no more than static pictures and a link with no tracking I'd still enjoy them.
I've always figured that advertising should be subject to a pretty heavy Pigouvian tax. (a tax on any market activity that generates negative externalities)

1. advertising is all about externalities

2. advertising's cost is relative. It matters more how much Coke spends on advertising relative to Pepsi and less the absolute amount that Coke spends. So if half of both Coke & Pepsi's advertising budget are taxed away neither Coke nor Pepsi lose much. But citizens gain due to both reduced ads and services provided with the state tax revenue gained.
That model is used in some countries, such as Finland, with a famous case being a Nokia executive (back when they still mattered).

Also called the "Iocaine Powder" strategy in Rock Paper Scissors (RoShamBo) [1]. The question being, how many "levels" of meta is optimal given the opponent(s) involved?

RoShamBo strategies attempt to predict what the opponent will do. Given a successful prediction, it is easy to defeat the opponent (if you know they will play rock, you play paper). However, straightforward prediction will often fail; the opponent may not be vulnerable to prediction, or worse, they might have anticipated your predictive logic and played accordingly. Iocaine Powder's meta-strategy expands any predictive algorithm P into six possible strategies:

P.0: naive application
Assume the opponent is vulnerable to prediction by P; predict their next move, and play to beat it. If P predicts your opponent will play rock, play paper to cover rock. This is the obvious application of P.

P.1: defeat second-guessing
Assume the opponent thinks you will use P.0. If P predicts rock, P.0 would play paper to cover rock, but the opponent could anticipate this move and play scissors to cut paper. Instead, you play rock to dull scissors.

P.2: defeat triple-guessing
Assume the opponent thinks you will use P.1. Your opponent thinks you will play rock to dull the scissors they would have played to cut the paper you would have played to cover the rock P would have predicted, so they will play paper to cover your rock. But you one-up them, playing scissors to cut their paper.

At this point, you should be getting weary of the endless chain. "We could second-guess each other forever," you say. But no; because of the nature of RoShamBo, P.3 recommends you play paper -- just like P.0! So we're only left with these three strategies, each of which will suggest a different alternative. (This may not seem useful to you, but have patience.)

I think it's fair to say that LoC is perhaps the least relevant metric it is possible to imagine.

Languages differ in expressive power in ways that effectively mean that 200kLoC in one language is trivial to implement in a few thousand lines in another. Even within one language, two implementations of the same effective feature can be devised with similarly large differences in line count, if one prioritizes brevity over efficiency.

A simple criterion like this would be laughably useless and abused to absurd degrees.

I've done intermittent fasting (on a low carb diet) without any other significant lifestyle changes and after a week or two hunger pangs essentially disappear during 24 hour fasts.

Right, but that liquidation preference would be junior to all other liquidation preferences, and they've already raised over $12bn, its also junior to debt, and they were seeking to raise $6bn as part of this floatation, plus whatever other debt they have. So quite clearly given that liquidation preference is now potentially worthless, they do need to base their valuation on some kind of reality.
There's a gap in the way we talk about security in the industry it seems.

On one hand, we have the tools to build cryptographically secure information systems, and on the other hand there's features that simply make most users more secure.

For example, as mentioned in the article, Gmail will allow you to send an email where the recipient can't forward it. Practically this may help protect against careless adversaries, but a motivated user can obviously copy and paste somehow.

Cryptography tends to rely on computationally hard problems, meanwhile this kind of security seems to rely on problems that are seen as cumbersome or impractical from a UX perspective.

The problem I have is masquerading "UX security" (for lack of a better term) as cryptographic security.

After 30, one should seriously evaluate breakfast. Three meals per day becomes just too many calories to burn. Two meals for an adult is plenty. Coffee in the morning suppresses hunger, so one can go until 12-12:30 before getting woozy.

At some point I noticed that I was force-feeding myself lunch if I ate breakfast. Hunger is a normal feeling - embrace it.

The best players will avoid trying to make an exploitative decision (e.g. guessing the correct level the opponent is thinking on), and instead make something approaching a game-theoretically optimal one (e.g. a maximally unexploitable strategy).

For example, if you're facing a big bet where you can only beat bluffs (e.g. all missed draws), but lose to any value bets (e.g. sets, straights, flushes), then you'll need to mainly be folding, but to avoid being exploitable you'll also need to call down with some percentage of these mid-strength hands (where the exact number depends on the bet size relative to the pot).

To decide which bluff-catchers you want to call down with, you'll want to pick hands that don't block any of your opponent's bluffs (e.g. you don't want to be holding the Ace of Spades on a flop that had two spades but a third didn't come by the river, since having this card eliminates a number of likely missed flush draws that your opponent might be bluffing with). In addition, you'll also want to pick hands that DO block some of your opponents value bets (e.g. your hand contains one or two cards that block your opponent from having straights, flushes, sets).

Naturally, calling down with the correct ratios is rather hard and only the best players can do so with any consistency, but it does remove the whole levelling guess work and reduces the decision to something you can reason about.

>I was tracking weight loss over time, so it's not just water loss. I tracked weight multiple times a day to see when weight loss actually happens.

And what you saw was just repeated measurements of water loss each morning, plus some actual weight loss, when the real weight loss happened 24/7 but was too spread for you to notice.

Sleeping is irrelevant (it is needed to be less stressed, but it's not the time you "actually lose weight" any more than any other time of the day) research has shown.
