>This is more complex than financials - displaying an advert leads to a bi-directional association in the consumers mind between the entity being advertised and the entity advertising it. It is beneficial to advertise products that have Brand values similar to yours (or ones you want to appropriate).

I agree, and I think that's part of why I disagree so hard with you on the primacy of images.

I mean, i'm not saying that a preference for text vs. a preference for pictures is objectively right or wrong, it's just a really good example of your aforementioned alignment of brand values between the content provider, the brand doing the selling, and the consumer. pictures are a way of associating your brand with values, but eschewing the (possibly extraneous) extra data in that picture, you are also associating your brand with a set of values.

I am also a consumer of protein powder... but you are way better off appealing to me with text. Ingredients, (tell me what the stuff is made of, and don't add any sweeteners) purity (Test for heavy metals or the like!) and then price are probably the attributes you want to bring forward, if you are trying to sell me a protein powder, approximately in that order. If you instead show a nice picture of the can or have a model preparing some in your ad, I'm going to see that, at best, as an irrelevant distraction. (again, I'm not saying those are the objectively most important attributes of a protein powder, but if you want my protein powder budget, that's how you get it; At a cultural level, the more I feel you focus on the things I care about and the less you focus on things I see as irrelevancies, the more I feel you align with my values.)

I mean, I'm not saying that pictures are good or bad in general, just that advertising with pictures and advertising with text have very different cultural connotations, and that advertising with text only can be a striking alignment with a consumer's values.

I can personally attest that they couldn't see you IN the crosswalk either. One nearly ran me down because it failed to yield to pedestrians in the crosswalk when turning right.

While I was standing there talking about it, the driver looped the car around the block and tried again. It did the exact same thing the second time. One of the people it happened to walked in to the office to report the bug. The Uber engineers there poo-pooed the concern and never did anything to fix it. This was before they killed the pedestrian. The fact that they utterly failed to create adequate safety systems when repeatedly warned, shows they are absolutely not capable of doing this safely.

Nor do I, but for slightly different reasons.

> it won’t change anyone’s ability to run Sentry at their company

I can't go up to a lawyer with years of experience trying and defending against BSL lawsuits and say "Is my usecase one Sentry can sue me for and win," because such a lawyer doesn't exist.

At least with other licenses, their actual legal limitations are well known, through case law and court rulings. The BSL in contrast is a legal liability that is probably not worth betting a small company on.

Sure, the Sentry of now might never do that - but if/when they're acquired for their patents and licenses that acquiring company may.
that implies there 's a tradeoff between freedom and responsibility. freedom is a natural right - responsibility, while highly valued, is not required.
How do you separate "people who haven't seen an ad" into a group in Google analytics? I don't believe "organic" source does that, because that means they weren't targeted by the ad in the first place, creating a bias.

Adjustment of Home Values. If any given area is selling at levels higher than standard median income allows and that given area is experiencing a higher than average number of Foreclosures (or pick a reasonable threshold), requirements should be in place to ensure that if a home defaults, it doesn't go back to market at those same values, but lower. After all, if you go strictly by banks rules, housing costs shouldn't be over 35% of income to hopefully prevent this from reoccurring.

There is no philosopher involved, in this case there is the wealth expended to produce an item. In your idealized example both parties are better off but the one that traded the item and took less effort to make it is comparatively better off. He will have advantages in future trades which will further increase. Not to mention a bigger voice in societal structure. (which is a tldr; of the article)

Anecdotally you met some college kids whom you perceived as not understanding economics. But the knowledge of increasing wealth inequality and the current deficiency of private investment is uncontroversial. Regardless of what the impression those kids gave, there number of techniques to address it and _increase_ GDP through the stimulus.
The problem I think is that we let these companies grow so big, and let society grow so dependent on them that their policies become a worldwide public issue. If we become dependent on Twitter or Facebook to participate in democracy, regulation should follow.
Yeah, that's funny to watch as an original submitter. 30 upvotes and 3 comments in 50 minutes. Seems like people have very little to say about the whole... incident. Other than point out that twitter security practices are not good for established company and you should not talk to police. Which are correct statements, but kinda generic, given the circumstances.

I don't see how you need an army of lawyers to fork or modify sentry code as long as you don't run a service that is competition to sentry.io.

If all you do is use sentry internally (which is a major use case for this particular piece of software) you can do what you want. This is not at all close to a proprietary license.

> If websites start doing this, all it will do is bring the privacy heat down harder, directly on the publishers themselves. I hope that websites manage to operate without sharing that data with the martech world, but I fear that they won't.

I think this is the crux of the issue. Up until now publishers have been insulated from the problem specifically because third party cookies allow it to be not the publisher's problem. If publishers bring this in-house, then the martech market will push for a standard API to allow advertisers to evaluate metrics on the ads they place, which means we've just kicked the can down the road.

Fortunately this is not a distinction that GDPR cares about.
Let's pose the opposite:

That doesn’t seem strange at all to me. A friend of mines regularly rents their place on Airbnb. Then in turn they rent a cheaper property and pocket the difference.
It's not that simple

> does this listing have a stove

Guest: Well yes but it doesn't work. Or, well yes but the flame shut off after 2 minutes

AirBnB: Sucks to be you but it has a stove so not a lie

> does this listing have wifi

Well yes but they say it's only got 1meg data so it will run out in probably 2 days and we booked the place for a month.

AirBnb: Sucks to be you but it has wifi so not a lie

> does this listing have 3 bedrooms

Well, it's got 3 rooms, a bedroom, a living room with a bed in it and a kitchen with a bed in it.

AirBnB: Bed in room = bedroom so yes it's got 3 bedrooms. Sucks to be you but not a lie

etc... The second 2 are actual AirBnB experiences.
Yes, calling it a "QL" was a huge, huge mistake, judging by the amount of comments on HN and elsewhere asking questions that are clearly influenced by an understanding of SQL but are basically non-sequiturs in the world of GraphQL (e.g. "How do you do AND joins with GraphQL?").

I admit, I didn't read the article, but even it seems like (mostly) a non-sequitur to me based on the title. Minimizing network requests is one teeny part of why I like GraphQL, and do say "we don't need it because HTTP2" is completely absurd.

Standard conservative responses:

--The globe is not getting warmer

--We don't know if the globe is getting warmer or not

--We do know the globe is getting warmer, but we don't know why

--We do know the globe is getting warmer, but it has a different cause than human activities

--We do know the globe is getting warmer, and it is in part due to human activities, but any action to counter this would be more harmful than letting it get warmer.

--We do know the globe is getting warmer and action needs to be taken, but it should all be voluntary actions by private enterprises, and no new governmental regulations.

And let us not forget: increased atmospheric co2 is beneficial because it increases agricultural production.

To my knowledge (electrical engineer) there is no usb-c connector with solid strain relief. I haven't been looking for one specifically but I've been looking at upgrading a project to usb-c.

All the usb-c connectors I know have soldered body connections, which makes for a really poor mechanical bond. Solder joints are full of mechanical stresses and the only thing preventing a bend is the copper delaminating from the pcb.

In usb-a, any bending has to break the entire substrate. Decent plated contacts will outlast the connectors they're plugging into. On top of that you can plate something like a yubikey on both sides if you wanted to, so the only advantage is size and it's not like you're plugging these things into your phone. As long as computers still have a single usb-a (and they should, if only for backwards compatibility) it's a non-issue, IMO.

the article isnt making the point that there is no value in advertising, but that it's highly overstated. One really needs ads - the 're a very effective way to reach users. But after that initial push, does spending more really return more?
thats why seller should modulate buying ads with a random stream of bits, such that the impulse response (of linearized approximation in tangent space for sales / advertising dollar) can be estimated.

of course if the advertisement platform is simultaneously a dominant search engine, they can simply choose to directly modulate your discoverability through the search engine, in which case it is closer to extortion as others point out.

as a potential buyer, I'd much rather have (economical) censorship free decentralized platform where every manufacturer / seller can advertise products / parts with relevant specifications / metrics. Think DigiKey, but without a central arbiter. Obviously a lot of products that are actually superior are superior because they have a better understanding of what people need than what conventional metrics show (say not just the cheapest capacitor, but perhaps the cheapest capacitance divided by electric series resistance or whatever, for a certain niche use). This would result in placing the burden of comparing products among the manufacturers, who will also make up original but useless metric formulas with the sole purpouse of making their product rank highest. So instead of having to browse products, people are browsing metrics, and it's up to both manufacturers and end users to communicate the utility of each end metric.

Something I don't like about the parts selectors like DigiKey et al, is that I can filter and rank according to proposed properties / columns, but I can't enter a formula in terms of properties, to show me the highest ranking. I always end up having to download and scrape the full list of parts so I can perform this ranking in a spreadsheet... If their search fields allowed formulas, and if people were logged in, the manufacturers / resellers could contact you to find out what made you formulate this specific metric or loss function, which gives feedback to the manufacturers what buyers are interested in. It would also give the sellers opportunity to correct the buyer that in his or her design the buyers' metric is faulty, and point out why...
This is correct. I find this excerpt sobering when looking at stats for private planes.

"""
Doing the math

In other words, take these comparisons with a grain of salt: In 2013, traffic accidents killed 32,719 people, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The fatality rate was 1.1 deaths per 100 million vehicle-miles traveled. Assuming an average vehicle speed of 50 miles per hour (a big assumption), the fatality rate for automobiles translates to 1.1 per every 2 million hours.

Taking the preliminary 2013 fatality rate in general aviation of 1.05 fatalities for every 100,000 hours of flight time and scaling it up to 2 million hours gives a comparison rate of 21 general aviation fatalities per every 2 million hours. This suggests that stepping on a private plane is about 19 times more dangerous than getting into the family sedan.

How do you define "respecting privacy"?
Wow it makes me sad that the top comment here is the one that's mocking the post.

Just because they've designed a compute environment that uses WebAssembly doesn't mean that their platform supports all languages that compile to WebAssembly.
The 24/7 support sounds promising. This has been their Achilles heel for many years.

Anecdotally, I once checked into an Airbnb with a leaky roof.
After spending a good 20 minutes trying to get to a human (a small eternity when you’re in an unfortunate situation), Airbnb asked that I spend hours negotiating with my non-responsive host on a solution, which is obviously nonsensical given the situation.

Being able to instantly talk to someone and feel like I am being taken care of would have made all the difference in the world.
Instead, I churned from their platform.
Oh wow. That's really bad, one of the ground rules of traffic participation is that traffic that goes straight on the same road as you when you turn always has priority.

> The Uber engineers there poo-pooed the concern and never did anything to fix it.

This is yet another nail in the coffin for Uber and self driving. I think as a company Uber is categorically and institutionally unable to participate in this space in a responsible manner. Their whole corporate culture is totally opposed to what is required to make this a reality.
Not sure if you’re joking or not, but it makes obvious economic sense to keep investing in something that has a higher rate of return than other investments - and you can’t reliably get a 50% return on any other investment I’m aware of.

And it only takes a moments thought to realise that once everyone starts doing this, the marginal rate of return is going to be driven down to the going rate in the rest of the market.

Like any other investment, if it sounds too good to be true it almost certainly is.
I do that for my backends. On the HTTP request, the client sends a `?fields=encodeURIComponent(<JSON>)` query parameter to the server. If `fields` is present, then the API sends back the pruned version of the REST API. If `fields` is not present, then all the fields are sent back. Alternatively, you can prune the fields to a subset by default. The <JSON> looks like `{ foo=true, bar={baz=true}, bap=true} ` to imply the endpoint should send down field `foo`, nested object `bar` with only its field `baz` and the entire default nested object `bap`. I achieve this in Django Rest Framework by using meta-classes.
I wonder how much he spends on housing.
Correct, you can revoke the YubiKey itself, although the actual mechanism to do that is implemented by the web app you're authenticating with, not some central registry, so other than conventional expectations, your mileage may vary. You can also hopefully re-enroll the YubiKey after you change the fingerprint.
Not to jinx it but the absence of large-scale nuclear conflict 1950-present seems pretty improbable and definitely very nice to have as far as counterfactual timelines go.
Everybody chips in or the ones that are wealthiest provide support for the weakest. That's how. How is this so difficult to understand?

In many cultures this is standard. For example, families taking care of their less fortunate family members (as long as they don't do something really stupid). Or another example, in many cultures, historically, the status came from being able to support weaker members of society. Especially in tribal societies the status would frequently be tied to how well you can make sure your tribe prospers as a whole.

If your brother or sister submits their DNA it's going to be immediately obvious you are siblings. Same goes for your parents. There is some ambiguity if it's aunts or cousins, but you might be able to work it out.
It's also worth noting that if you pay ransomware, the organization you pay now knows that you (1) are willing to pay, (2) don't have the technical capability to avoid a malware infection, (3) don't have a full backup solution.

Even if the ransomware is removed/disabled after payment, you are more likely to be re-targeted either by the same group or that group may resell your information to rival ransomware groups.

I'm not entirely against paying, but it's a risk calculation and you should know all of the risks.
It sounds like the camera was sending match results using a blocking send or write call, and no one was reading them, so once the total size of match results exceed the total size of socket buffers the camera software blocks and stops working.
Who pays for their housing, food and beverages out of a stash of dollar bills accumulated 20 years ago though? The same chart shows the wages they buy their food and beverages with actually rising faster on average, and people saving their wages for a house in future or a pension fund for their future food and beverages tend to put it in places which pay interest.

Granted, you're a lot worse off if you need to pay a hospital bill or go to college, but I don't think any serious person argues that the real structural problem there is lack of a Gold Standard...
> Classification is not needed to avoid objects.

Taking your disclaimer into account, that is a very wrong assumption. If you classify an object wrongly that means your model will not be able to properly estimate what the object's capabilities are, including its potential acceleration speed and most likely trajectory from a stand-still. And that information will come in very handy in 'object avoidance' because a stationary object could start to move any time.
I'm be curious if you could have pushed back on the bedrooms one. The term "bedroom" has a legal definition in many places (ex, must have door and closed).
> Show ads to your test group, don't show to control

Which is the wrong experiment to run. The old adage is that 50% of advertising works, you just don't know which part. You need an experiment to prove that ad spending scales with ROI, as ad agencies claim. That may well be completely false.

And the three year conversion window gives you cover there. It's a question of will the Sentry of the next three years do that.
Proprietary software with code that's viewable is actively harmful. It's worse than being closed. If you read the source, and use it (or a very similar version derived from it) in your code, you're including a copyright violation into your code.
I used to imagine that might be so, but when walking I regularly face bicyclists riding at full speed down a narrow sidewalk even though there is a parallel bike lane on a safe and fairly deserted street not two meters away.

In any case, the tribulations of bicyclists is not a sufficient reason for them to endanger pedestrians. When I ride, I keep it in the street. It's the right thing to do.
