> "There are many species of honey bees. Apis Mellifera is the bee kept by beekeepers in the United States. It originated in Europe (though a recent archaeological dig may have found apis species that pre-date European colonization of the Americas.) Based on the current information, honey bees are a “non-native” species. They can, and do, escape cultivation and can live in the wild. In order to be considered “invasive” they would need to displace and prevent native insects from thriving. This is hotly debated. Most researchers have found that pollination by bees of different species increases fruit set, the number of seeds and subsequent flowers – thereby increasing forage for all insects. They do not fight with each other and rarely share diseases. Since adequate forage for all bees is on the decline, could honey bees be taking all the nectar and pollen – leaving nothing for native bees? It’s possible but not likely. Honey bees are most often kept in large commercial groups – moved between big orchards for pollination. Hobby beekeepers are fairly spread out. Native bees stay in their own habitat. They do overlap, but not everywhere."

source: https://duffymeadows.com/2019/01/21/are-honey-bees-and-invas...

Some of the issues in question are just how much of an impact they have in forcing out native bees due to competition for resources and how much of a nuance they are as a result of pollinating and thereby assisting in the spread of invasive plants. Answers to those questions vary by both location (with some having more fragile native bee populations to begin with) and depending on if the bees are from feral bee colonies which tend to be fairly small vs bees from giant commercial operations which can suddenly introduce extremely large numbers of bees to an area.

I can certainly see that there are cases where honey bees could cause enough of a problem to be considered invasive, but it does seem a little unfair to pin that on the bee if it's primarily caused by the actions of commercial bee keepers and not the bee's natural behavior in the wild. That is, it says less about the bee and more about the bee keepers.

This also only concerns the common honey bee. I don't think anyone would argue that the africanized honeybee wasn't a problem.

From a paper which falls on the invasive side of the argument but calls out the debate explicitly:

> Yet the extent to which this introduced species alters native communities remains controversial, reflecting ongoing debate over the importance of resource competition in regulating pollinator populations.

Snowden released a large collection of documents. Judging by his interview with Joe Rogan, he's a passionate advocate for encryption and says that the US is creating a tool for complete oppression. It's harder to get more apocalyptic than that.

That's to be expected, because those who pay insurance and are healthy are now paying for many people who previously had less of a safety net. No free lunch and all.

Not necessarily to be expected, part of the goal of access to healthcare for all is that people can get treatment sooner, before problems get so bad, and get healthier, sooner. Over time if that was effective, medical costs would trend down. America doesn't seem to do that, paying more for the same treatment than other countries, but high healthcare costs are not caused by workers paying them.

But let's say that is expected, healthy people are now paying more to cover the needy. It's a kind of forced charity, and there are good reasons for personally disliking being forced to cover others expenses, sure.

But then your answer to this is to quit your job, and live off your investments? "Making your money work for you" is a polite way of saying "live off the work of others". The dividends and investment growth in that lifestyle come directly from the work done by the still-employed. Your future dream life will send you in the direction of being a shareholder squeezing and extract maximum money from the still-employed, because your survival depends on their work. In a world where everyone saved for financial independence and the pool of workers was ever shrinking, your income would dry up, so the incentives will be upon you to stop the still-employed from doing do what you did - pulling up the ladder after you.

That is, while it won't be outright legislated in a single bill in plain terms like Obamacare was, you will be all-but mandating that other people work to keep you alive, or supporting systems and legislation which has that effect. The very thing you are complaining about, being forced to help others, in your opening paragraph, will still be a system you take part in and support. You're saying "if I am compelled to pay for others, that's evil Socialism" and "if others are working themselves ragged supporting me that's great, self-interest individualism at its best".

screw those who continue to work themselves ragged as they are now subsidizing many people, like my possible future self, [..] while we just exit the game itself.

You aren't exiting the game. You can never exit. The moral answer is to not be the leech you think is so deplorable, and keep working to keep yourself alive. When you can survive on your savings without growth beyond inflation, without dividends, and with spending the principle, then maybe retire. If everyone pitches in, with more people working, there won't need to be screwed over employees working themselves ragged. That ought to benefit society collectively, which will benefit you in roundabout ways.
Regardless of what the actual situation is, I wonder what people think it should be, and how far towards either direction (anarchy and whatever the opposite is) we'll go.

For example, What if you sell someone some pencils and they stab someone to death with them?

If I run a forum about gardening and someone is using the PMs as a slave market, am I responsible for not monitoring every single message on the platform, and should I be?

What if I own an office and I rent it out for people to have meetings, and they meet there in person and hold a slave market, am I also supposed to be monitoring their in-person meetings?
Out of all the computing devices I've ever owned, the Apple devices are by far the longest-lived (and longest-supported) ones. I still use my 2007 MacBook, my 2012 MBP, and my iPhone 6S. The 2nd gen iPad still does its job fine.

These things are not disposable. Each item in the list above has had battery replacements. The 2007 MBP, I bought a 3rd party pack. The 2012 MBP was replaced free-of-charge at an Apple store. The 6S got a new battery for $29.

When I do decide to get a newer phone, I'll hand in my old one at that time. I'm sure they don't just chuck it into the wastebasket.
Yes, dang has told me I can not speak negatively about Google and point to my personal reasons why. Nor point to a popular HN thread that clearly/flat out shows Google getting caught doing a bad thing.
Apologies if I’m misunderstanding, but are you implying that amazon doesn’t commingle products? Allegedly this is the reason that you can order a “sold by amazon” product but still receive a counterfeit item (likely provides by a 3rd party seller).
If you text people with Android phones, Google can read your text messages even if you don't use their products.
The Case for International Civil Servants
Should be added that this is highly dependent on the specific hardware. AES is cripplingly slow where accelerators are misconfigured or otherwise unavailable.

If you have a brain larger than your leg, you should consider configuring an IPSec endpoint to save power on your phone.

> Except those large deficits are largely funded by baby boomers buying bonds, not millenials.

Lending someone money doesn't cost you money, it earns you interest. They still have all of that money and generally expect to get it back (to spend it down during their retirement) before they die.

> And the interest is by and large around the level inflation is at (sometimes lower, sometimes higher).

That may be true, but the interest payments are still flowing in a specific direction. One side has a risk-free place to park their money until they want to spend it while not having it eroded by inflation, the other side has to pay the inflation.

> And those yield bearing instruments are then left to the boomers' children when they die.

That is increasingly not happening because people are living longer and consequently having less left over in the end. There has also been an increase in predatory financial instruments like reverse mortgages that prevent that from happening in practice.

> Moreover, if that national debt is being used to pay for national assets like infrastructure, the younger generation get to benefit from that.

Which would be true if it was mostly being used to pay for national assets like infrastructure, but it's mostly being used to expand social security and medicare.

this is super cool!
You are vastly underestimating Marcon's drive to fill the US American shaped power vacuum that emerges with a French-German filler.

Just like you are completely disregarding the possibility that Russia and Europe might end up on better terms out of sheer practicality.

Because that whole narrative about the Russian boogeyman, barely kept at bay due to US presence, is one that's mostly based on fiction, and not actual real politics.

Even Putin knows that a broke and war-torn Western Europe makes for bad customers for Russian gas, which is among the very few things still keeping the Russian economy alive.

I could only aspire to such awesome geekiness. Thank you for making the world a more interesting place.
In all honesty, even foreign countries won't work.

You would need to find foreign nations meeting all three of the following criteria:

-Wealthy enough to buy goods. Can't really sell much to Lesotho for instance.

-Net consumers as opposed to net savers. Places like China you have that dreaded 90/90 trap. Where 90 percent or more of families feel a need to save 90 percent or more of their disposable income. Probably because they have both a one child policy and a completely nonexistent social safety net.

-Which is a good segué for the third necessary condition, a government willing to grease the gears of consumption with fiscal and monetary policy. Policies like, for instance, providing their citizens with a reliable safety net. (In addition to cultural tendencies of course.)

At any rate, as we look around the world, you just don't see any nations out there meeting all those criteria. The trade war is more about trying to turn China into a country that does meet those criteria. I'm not too hopeful that will happen though to be honest. The Chinese proclivity to save is not born simply of a lack of a safety net to look after you in old age, it's also deeply ingrained culturally. Has been for thousands of years. Chinese have to be pretty wealthy before they become spendthrifts. And like you said, how do you force a guy to spend money instead of saving?

It's a tough problem all the way around.

+1 for Zerotier. I really like wireguard, but Zerotier is so much easier and quicker to set up from scratch. If wireguard had ACLs and ipam built-in, it probably would probably win me over.
> All work should be checked through an independent and impartial review. In engineering and manufacturing, industry spends large sums on quality control.

I feel that the code reviews I’ve been a part of were not as effective as they could have been. I think there is social awkwardness at criticizing design or conceptual aspects, and a multitasking aspect that means the reviewer is in a hurry and mostly checks conformity to the style guide. Very little checking out of branches and manual testing happened, so we had more regressions than expected.

Is this the norm? What practices have you seen that lead to better results?
PCP was a general anesthetic, cocaine is still a local anesthetic used humorously enough for rhinoplasty [1] (and eye surgery if I’m not mistaken) and Xanax is an antidepressant so by that strict measure there’s some logic.

With that in mind it’s a completely asinine system and should be thrown out. It’s such an utter waste of time when Portugal’s policy of decriminalizing everything a decade and a half ago showed massive public benefit and no increase in drug use. [2]

Nothing about the war on drugs is “fact based.” This whole conversation is about re-shuffling the deck chairs when we should be getting off the Titanic.

When I used OpenVPN, the VPN had to keep sending keepalives and periodic key renegotiations to keep the session open. This is fine on a PC, but it keeps waking up the radio hardware on a mobile device which is a real battery drain. It's the same as running an app on the background that constantly polls for data, something Android spent a lot of time on fighting to gain better battery time.

I wouldn't hold my breath for official WireGuard support in the manufacturer Android kernels until some big corporations start relying on it but custom ROMs are able to use kernel modules already[1].

Encryption itself should not be much overhead. WireGuard cryptography is based on ChaCha20. While I haven't encountered any hardware support for ChaCha, it's performance is quite good, so good even that Google is requiring manufacturers of very low power Android devices (running Android 10+ Go) to implement ChaCha-based encryption on budget devices [2].

All these old pictures showing kids having fun in environments we consider harmful, always depict kids older than those we typically let play in playgrounds.

From the age of ~3 kids start to learn their motor skills to climb, grab, jump, do all sort of stuff.

Kids of the age of these pictures, you let them play wherever that's not a death trap, they'll basically be fine.

SAP is deploying 25x per day with Spinnaker
While that sounds like a logical argument it’s becoming more and more difficult and will be impossible soon. It’s like saying you can live without electricity. Sure you can and there are people who do but that’s not the point. The point is a single company owning so much information about so many people without proper oversight. In such world it doesn’t matter if YOU are not a google user. You’ll suffer the consequences regardless. Start with how such a society is going to vote in elections and move from there.
