nroets refers to schemes like "Facebook Free Basics" [1] where mobile users in developing countries would get universal, free basic internet service.

This meant they could access Wikipedia, Facebook and Bing [2] but couldn't access EdX or Khan Academy or Google.

Although perhaps well-meaning, the scheme was widely opposed by net neutrality advocates [3].

> There's a specific reason why they do this and ask you to make a decision in an instant. It's called accommodation. Your eyes will quickly try and accommodate and find focus if they're allowed to stare too long. This could explain the reason he got such different results from the exams. He was trying too hard. Just follow directions.

I don't have a long experience with glasses but I have never received these instructions and my experience is similar to the author.
They were on a system where if bugs existed past a certain date of them being logged, their was financial penalties that had to be paid.

Also adding new features was incredibly slow, painful and dangerous. Even a minor change resulted in so much manual regression needing to be done. It was absurd.
Those people are NEVER the problem.

If 50-100 violent masked people show up and the police want to arrest them, nobody in the peaceful protest are going to get in the way.

The politicians CHOOSE to allow the violent group to discredit the entire protest.
Your GPS/Microcontroller example is not very relevant, as those are chips that malfunction in measurable ways. We were discussing people. Fundamentally I think we just disagree about how much the word of a corporation can (and should) be trusted. That's okay, and to my view unlikely to change with extended discussion.

Somewhat interestingly, under the hood calibre seems to be a bunch of little tools, strung together by the UI:

Here's what's under calibre/bin

calibre
calibre-complete

calibre_postinstall
calibre-server
calibre-smtp

You can use many (possibly all) of these independently of the UI.
Garbage opinions:

"The invitation goes like this. ‘Here is our 16-year-old autistic girl. Listen to her as she demands that you destroy the best system of economic growth.’"

"I have often wondered about putting out an advert for a disabled Danish 14-year-old who loves fossil fuels. In a Scandi child-off with Greta would such a candidate win?"

This person reveals everything about their politics with this line of thinking.
i'm a lifelong (nonmotor) cyclist finally learning to drive. what i notice is that driving is a lot more complex than cycling. you have so little space and so much vehicle. you have to stay in lane, take care when cornering. you are ultimately relying on cyclists or pedestrians not to do anything rash because the chances of you being concentrated on something else when a sudden crossing happens are significant. In which case you will definitely not see them.
There would not be poor if it was not for the rich.

My chinese is really terrible, the one guy in the beginning is making fun of white shirt for his accent. He's from the mainland. I don't know the rest of the context, but there have been a lot of racist attacks from the protesters lately, so I wouldn't be surprised if that was his only crime. The "journalists" are all filming him while a protester beats him up and another "journalist" makes sure he and the woman can't enter the building.

What you deserve and what you are at fault for are not the same thing. Fault is a legal concept - as you said, by definition - of who is responsible for the outcome. But that doesn't mean that breaking the law means you deserve broken bones and misery: things you deserve are things you should be rewarded with or punished by for an action. If you deserved it, the punishment for illegal lane splitting (or an equivalent crime, like speeding) would be for the police to take a baton to your knees.

After jumping to blaming the rider, you graciously accepted you were wrong about the law in some jurisdictions. Unfortunately, you then continued trying to blame the rider without taking the lesson that you may not be aware of what's safest for a bike rider to do. The only explanation I see for this is that you place people on bikes in a different mental tribe to your own.

Yeah, the UI is appalling, but it works really well for normalizing the book metadata, and loading the books onto my e-reader. That's more than enough functionality for me.
Getting worked up over a non-issue is counter-productive (to be clear: it is fussing over the 'extra' braces that is the non-issue; having an explicit syntax for the empty statement is an issue, and one that makes sense.)
It's about 20% clock, 70% men's jewellery and 10% guilty pleasure ;)
It's important to only do eye tests when you are tired, so you get lenses that help you when you need them.
this illustrates exactly the problem.

While people are having these "insights", the problems are not actually getting fixed. This is because fixing the problem isn't really the goal.

And these people should absolutely be judged for this.
The court believes that EU doesn't have the right to tell it's members that they _can't_ do that. It does _not_ say that it makes any sense for a EU state to do this.

As I understand the issue. I might have misunderstood.
Why can't/don't they (the government) simply invest? what exactly has changed that prevents it? Where else is spending up/revenue down?

It seems like just about every government function has had it's budget effectively reduced over the years - where is it going?
My point is that the generalization from a real in group of people that look like you (extended family) to the group of people that look like you, is not really a useful thing to do, it mistakes the superficial information (similar appearance) for useful information.
What's so "geopolitically pragmatic" in the discussion coming from the mafia that gained access to nuclear weapons and now dreams that it should be accepted as a world power? Unless you view mob tactics as pragmatic in general.

Also, don't mix up the mafia that's in power there now with Russia itself. They don't represent the country and its people, they are usurpers.
Regrettably, humanity is not as advanced or kind a species as we think we are. Politics and war mean that it's not possible to stop this dam.

On the bright side for the archaeology, the water will protect some parts of the city, and in a century when the existing Turkish government is ashes and dust, some of that will remain to be discovered.

That doesn't help the present residents, but given the situation in their country (which we and other countries have contributed to) nothing will.

We're all to blame, because we share the world.
Comparing Goyal to GRRM is desultory. GRRM charged his book buyers a whole bunch of money in installments for decades, and when he got rich out of these fans, he happily screws them over by refusing to finish his story.

Goyal provided a unique and complete piece of software, charging exactly zero, and continues to improve it even a decade after it released.
If Mastodon is truly decentralized, then someone ought to be able to leverage the identities (and possibly other data) in it to create a tool that has more Facebook-like features for this wanting something different than a Twitter clone. Is this underway?
I mean, the disgusting acts of protesters do not mean that the police isn't doing it, too. So there's a pretty huge flaw in your logic and I guess that is why you are getting downvoted.

Then again, I think this is one of the arguments why a ban on masks is pretty reasonable: There's real assholes hiding in the midst of the protesters who can get away with their crimes due to masks. It would btw. also make it harder for agent provocateur to stay disguised.

I do agree though that the reporting in the west has been very questionable.
The knowledge that you can write a note like that, and the willingness to do it, are very strongly class-based.
He probably saw the first result incorrectly, opticians almost exclusively use negative cylinders, it seems incredibly unlikely that he would both stumble upon a rare exception using positive cylinders, and that she'd coincidentally get his astigmatism way wrong as well.

I share his, uhm, perfectionism regarding optical corrections, and it's led to quite some anxiety. I feel like eye exams here aren't done with a lot of care, and that they just aim for "good enough". I'm not sure what to do with the knowledge that you can buy such an optician kit and test yourself. It's either a great or an absolutely terrible idea.
Instapaper might work better for you for Kindle integration.

The Kobo integrates Pocket natively, so it works seamlessly. It's one of the reasons I bought a Kobo. Native Overdrive integration was a huge plus, too.
The upside is probably opportunity cost related essentially like mainframes of yore. Technically they could handle higher throughput than the workstations at the start and even today but once developed they became a dead end compared to more parallel approaches.

That sort of quantity vs quality thing has happened a lot throughout history. The "VHS beats Betamax" moments that goes way further back but with more obscure examples.
Rigged isn't a fair word, it's just reality.

It's only reality because people accept it. If we stop accepting it the reality can be changed. For example, for several hundred years many people accepted slavery and believed owning people was justifiable. When enough people decided not to accept that reality it was changed fairly quickly.
Thanks for mentioning this. I didn't know that Calibre packages its own optipng, a program for which there have been some security advisories in recent years. I hope Calibre keeps pace with upstream releases of these tools.
they put up with it because apple products are overpriced - ALL of them — & they incorrectly equate price with quality, the more expensive it is the better quality it must be in their eyes.
I had great glasses for about 25 years. Then my eye doctor retired. Over the next couple years the first couple pairs I received from the same location's new doctors were bad enough to cause me to return them. The third has been marginally acceptable. It's a real shame when talent retires.
We've just open-sourced our library imagededup, a Python package that simplifies the task of finding exact and near duplicates in an image collection.

It includes several hashing algorithms (PHash, DHash etc) and convolutional neural networks. Secondly, an evaluation framework to judge the quality of deduplication. Finally easy plotting functionality of duplicates and a simple API.

We're really excited about this library because finding image duplication is a very important task in computer vision and machine learning. For example, severe duplicates can create extreme biases in your evaluation of your ML model (check out the CIFAR-10 problem). Please try out our library, star it on Github and spread the word! We'd love to get feedback.

Well, yeah, no. Family is leaving the country, S/O got kicked out, and I have a Great Pyrenees.
That URL is downright bizarre.
With the hydro plant you at least get advance notice.
Automated Forecasting Using AutoTS in RemixAutoML for R
Agreed. My city's local "planning commission" has overstepped many old timers long planned future family-development agreements because big money has come in wanting to develop large scale housing communities. The communities once plotted as kid friendly cul-de-sac, have become thoroughfares for big business by touting "connectivity needs". It's a joke, especially when you see that the make up of the planning commission is 2/3 land developers and contractors.
Reason #37 that I am no longer a scientist: most of my time as a scientist was spent attempting to replicate the positive results of other scientists and failing, because the work was not replicable.

I actually trust negative results way more than positive results now- it's a proxy that you can trust the investigator. I wish we had a Journal of Negative Results.
Giving money to poor is giving them a chance. A lot of problems with being able to find and keep a job ultimately stems from lack of money for things like housing, clothing, transportation, healthcare and decent meals.
It depends entirely on your phone producer. Check the support status with them.
Apparently so. At least a lot of the negative comments are getting downvoted too. Thanks for engaging with me - I wish it was mandatory to add a comment if you want to down/upvote a comment.
No, it's part of human nature to be concerned about threats to ourselves above almost everything else. It's not only natural, but it's probably not possible to fully turn off this tendency.

Claiming that people should automatically be as concerned about being a danger to others as they are about danger to themselves is a nice thought... the world would be a good place if that was the way things worked... but it's not. Even the most educated and enlightened people put their own safety first and the threat to others second, because we're all human.
Coming from country much less fortunate compared to US what is considered unsurmountable obstacle in US would be close to what a regular person is facing there. So it might be that people believing that they have no options has a significant impact on what they can achieve.
If I drive into oncoming traffic, run a red light, fail to stop at a two way stop, etc. why shouldn’t I expect to be in an accident? I’m intentionally breaking the law and drivers expectations.
I believe Friendica tries to behave more Facebook like and also uses the ActivityPub protocol.

This site keeps track of some of the various AP projects: https://fediverse.party/
At this point I think most people are concerned about hate speech policies. Normal opinions are censored through these rules, and the claims of harm are rather dubious.

Why should companies be trusted to enforce elusive controls on our speech? And is it fair that tech companies act like editors and still get Section 230 liability protections as a tech platform that no editor gets?

The end result of enforcing political correctness is preference falsification, which have lots of very negative effects. This is a good video on it:

> I have a few seconds to decide whether I see some letters better and this decision will decide which lenses I’ll have in my glasses for the next few years? Absurd!

From personal experience: don't do these tests if you're tired, have headaches or are otherwise impaired. For example if your eyes simply want to shut and you're forcing them to open the musculature will affect your vision.
The impact of enabling WiFi on battery life hadn't occurred to me. Do you have a rough sense of how big the hit is?
you have to stay in your lane and pay attention even as a cyclist.

the consequences of a mistake are the ones that are really different - but on the upside you way less likely to get seriously hurt in a car vs riding a bike.

on top of that: it’s really fascinating for me to see people putting the burden of their own physical safety on other (ef if you know that a driver has practically a zero chance of seeing you in a situation why not protect yourself? it doesn’t matter that you’re right if you’re dead)
Sometimes it's because of multipacks. We used to stock La Croix, back when there weren't dozens of flavors and knock off brands. We'd get a 24 pack of them at Sam's that had three flavors, six lemon, six orange, twelve lime. Over time the limes would accumulate until one day we had a stack of them from the floor to the ceiling of the supply closet.

We made a joke out of it, sneaking lime ones into people's fridges, replacing their lemon or orange with them mid-drink, etc. Our company was small enough that it never got hostile.
It's also a command line tool, and a library of useful patterns.

How many LOC is your ad-hoc "FSM-like program", and have you done correctness and performance testing on it? If I had a nickel for every incorrect email validity checker I ran across, I'd have an awful lot of nickels.
Deception by omission. That entire comment section was fueled by bots on both sides.
My company has the kitchens, I’ve never seen this or heard of this. If something runs out they should be stocking more or more often. Shit like this is so silly. If the company is making billions it’s not acceptable. Stock more.

Also, just speculating, but I bet this is more prone to happen in places that don’t treat their food staff like real employees.
When using 1.1.1.1 as resolver Cloudflare has your full IP. So they can fully track you.

ECS doesn't even forward the IP, only the /24.
If you can cite actual evidence to backup anything you've said then sure, I'd consider it more in my own arguments.

Ketogenic diet has very noticeable health benefits and where you won't easily be nutrient deficient. Veganism in contrast you hear stories regularly that over time some people develop health issues - is it because of the diet or something else underlying - we don't know, no one's studied it properly.

The growing counterpoint to veganism - a lot of which are people doing it for ideological reasons - from my observation is to counter the growing hate and intolerance against people who eat animals. Hunting and eating animals is a natural part of our evolution and to deny that is denying evolution; only psychopaths don't care about causing unnecessary suffering, everyone else would rather abolish factory farming where abuse is ripe and extreme. The carnivore diet is starting to trend, animal-only diet, and badly done research painting meat in a bad light is being debunked.

The place where there's no profit to be made, regarding rapid, healthy weight loss - which is water fasting; there's no profit motive to promote water fasting in the mainstream. Otherwise if there is profit to be made, and bad actors involved, then there will be propaganda being generated - and it will be the crowd who spread the content they produce, that content which doesn't cost a lot to produce - and is free to distribute especially when you design the results, the writing, to align with beliefs of members of a group.

Yeah, the UI is just bizarre but it doesn't really matter. What matters is whether the update supports DRM stripping extensions. Can't find that info anywhere; won't update without knowing...
Sounds great but how are the "Principles of dialogue" enfoced? I can easily imagine that partipants ,completely unintentionally, may start to violate these principals.
Yes, but with no means of transportation, how does the seven-year-old get the library book in the first place?

Not that I think we should impose punitive fines on those who would have to scrimp to pay them.
Italy to Investigate Netflix for Failing to File Tax Return
"people rolling around in cheap, crappy cars who have no respect and no interest in driving"

I enjoy driving, and should mention that in some ways the most fun I ever had was in a $500 1990 Nissan Sentra. Plenty of people in fancy cars dgaf about the act of driving, and plenty of folks in cheap cars (especially ones where keeping them running these days is a labor of love) care more than you might think.
In terms of moral behavior without influence of social norms, it's also worth investigating morality as a dynamic system - if you'd erase all existing social norms from memory and gather a group of people, what norms would evolve over time?
Counterpoint, Rust is actually easier to learn, and take way less time from inception to writing production-ready code.
That's tough: we do docker compose, so upstream = named container, and so init can be wonky (ex: dev). We have started strangling Nginx out for caddy bc this + LE (no pay gate on ssl autorenewal). These are increasingly basic things for modern apps.
I love Calibre, been using it since way back in my kindle keyboard days.
There's always reasons why the dismissal of those with the most insight is the "right" thing to do.

It turns out human beings can rationalize a lot of things that ought not be rationalized.
A Broken System Helped Kill Net Neutrality. It Afflicts the Whole Government
It's a "ship of Theseus" problem if you replace parts of the brain. It's a subjective experience/continuity of qualia problem if you make a copy of a "self". It's no problem if you disregard self as an illusion.
This is otherwise known as the fixed pie myth. No, wealth is not a zero-sum game.
This is amazing, however, I have the opposite problem: how do I measure for contact lenses?

I've never been able to get a good fit for my contacts although my glasses have always worked well enough. The weird thing is that when I go to get contact lenses, the retailer orders them according to my glasses prescription, but subtracts seemingly arbitrary values from it to arrive at the contact lenses' values.

I live in Pakistan, btw.
Calibre does the trick.

It's a shame there's no good hardware ereader to use it with. Every e-ink device is closed hardware, runs only closed software, and is trying to lock you into some DRM-rich ecosystem.
