At the risk of setting fire to and already smouldering dumpster, but Jack's company has a recent chequered history of suspending and banning biological women's and feminist rights accounts for pushing back against MRA's and the extreme end of the TRA movement for disagreeing that biological sex is a spectrum, and pushing back against the idea that protected biological women's spaces should be available to anyone who claims they are a woman but still has a penis attached (e.g. rape centres).

See also the continued attacks on biological women by not banning or suspending accounts that use TERF as a slur or pejorative. And see also the banning of Meghan Murphy and actual intersex person who has objected to the hijacking of intersex people's medical conditions by TRA extremists (Stonewall, sadly and Mermaids) to justify their pseudo-science that biological sex is a spectrum.

Jack knows this stuff well and simply won't stand up in support of biological women's hard fought rights to not have penises in their gradually eroded protected spaces.

Argentina's process sounds easy enough to me, and similar to Uruguay's, which is where I'm from. Of all things you have to do to move to a whole 'nother country, a fair dose of paperwork should be fairly low on your list of worries.

You will do about as much if not more paperwork when trying to rent a place, sign-up for electricity, Internet connection, a smartphone contract, and so on.

So it does seem to me that TurkishPoptart is fairly free to leave if his/her worry is just complying with the law as mentioned in the posted comment.

Stop! Don't mark them as reputably just because they meet with conservatives.

Breitbart is not reliable, and that should reduce Facebook's trust, but meetings conservatives should not. Conservatives have long accused facebook of ignoring them, so when facebook stops ignoring them, we should not demonize them.

Everything is fine if you just remove sentence 2.
> The substance of the complaint is the speed of the auction that discovers the price. The faster price discovery is being done, the fewer traders can participate.

The faster the price discovery, the shorter the validity time. This means a more accurate price.

> If a few milliseconds can change the value of a financial instrument then we have to accept that waiting a second or two will allow a lot more traders to reevaluate and offer a fair price.

You're making the mistake of assuming the price is static. If I have to quote you a price on an instrument that's valid for the next 5s, I have to be more conservative than if I'm quoting for the next 5ms. Which means you get a worse price.

> The HF in HFT looks like a play to reduce the number of traders who can act on information, which means the buyer/seller is probably getting scalped. HFT traders are making money arbitraging the speed of information dissemination, which indicates that other traders would offer different (/better) prices if the market waited a half-second or so to let everyone gather all the relevant data.

There's literally nothing stopping or limiting the numbers of players operating at this speed. What the race actually results in is all market participants getting smaller spreads and better prices.

Back when I was working for a site on their first-party in-house analytics, the only blocker to catch it was https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/better-blocker/id1080964978 (Better blocker) and since then, I’ve been running it on my phone. Incidentally, it was not a fun job to have and I left shortly after.

Better blocker is by https://ind.ie/ and the rules are online at https://better.fyi/

That said, it’s not comprehensive, so I run it alongside another blocker that uses more traditional rule sources (1Blocker). I find that a diversity of rule sources and sometimes simply building rules manually for individual sites is required. I do think this kind of lookup/service is very useful though in advancing the state of tracker blocking. Next we’ll probably have to do behavioural analysis until they move the trackers into site code or binary data flows of the rest of the site... there is a point at which you have to decide if it’s worth putting up with tracking to use a site or service... as much as I dislike it. If it’s integrated, at least it will be faster than third-party, I suppose.

I referenced above the Ubuntu Linux forum. That's where we (=the people running the forum) set those rules, based on general Ubuntu guidelines. So it's a little bit more than just my opinion. But it's my opinion that these rules are always right if you want a successful software project. You can also treat it as an observation if you prefer.

> Perhaps, but I think we should let developers make the decision for themselves...

That's not a useful route to discuss, and frankly a bit annoying. No one is forcing devs to do anything. If you think discussing the consequences and why that behaviour is harmful is making it impossible for devs to make decisions for themselves - that will sound harsher than I mean it - you shouldn't engage in such a discussion.

I have mixed feelings about this. If you recommend DuckDuckGo, Qwant, Ecosia you're essentially recommending Bing. Each of them have to show bing ads, forward the users' IPs as per Bing's terms of service (to fight ad fraud etc). Similarly, if you recommend StartPage, you're recommending Google. Same drill with ads.

I like DuckDuckGo. But unless they build their own search - I think the fundamental problem has not been tackled. There is no good, independent, private search alternative.

[Edit]
I am not trying to single out DDG. There are a few replies that either demand for proof (rightfully) or suggest Bing is used only sometimes. I do not have conclusive proof, but have worked on search. Here's a couple of things for the curious:

1. Try to run this test: If you query "what is my ip" in duckduckgo (DDG), or any of the other ones I mentioned, you will notice in the description of one of the top results this IP: 207.46.13.147. It's a BingBot IP [0]. It's a good enough test to spot where results are coming from.

2. Open two browser windows side by side with DDG and Bing. Turn on results for the country you are in in DDG. Look attentively. Try image search.

It is clear that DDG does some re-ranking based on its own, but it's very often the same results.

Who cares what this guy has to say about Facebook? Why does his opinion matters more than mine or yours? I bet he knows even less.
Most of the negativity is on ideological grounds - they don't like that it is "opinionated" and offers minimal customisation compared to KDE. And there's some backlash against the fact that a lot of the UI uses Javascript. (Though recent benchmarks have shown that it doesn't cause any kind of performance hit.)

Frankly, I don't think that Gnome is particularly un-customizable, it just does it in a different way, using extensions that you can install. I do occasionally try out new versions of KDE to see what I'm missing, and I'm always surprised how buggy/crashy it is.

Carbon taxes should be levied in such a way that most people who are buying the basic necessities would actually see a growth in their income.

Lower middle class should see no change. Middle class should see a net loss if they don't change their habits. And anything beyond would see a substantial loss.

Give each person a carbon ration, if you didn't use it fully you get money back. If you used more than your fair share you have to pay significantly large taxes that go directly to the pockets of people who use less and infrastructure.
What's your theory about the mechanism in Ketosis is affecting you?

Ask HN: Does anybody have this annotated music dataset?
Hi there HN, you're my 'means of last resort', or so I hope. I'm working on a music project and would very much like to get my hands on a particular dataset because it is used in many papers reporting other people's results. Unfortunately the download facility doesn't work (it's password protected, I've signed up but then it will not allow me to log in).

The email addresses associated with the project all bounce.

http://www.tsi.telecom-paristech.fr/aao/en/2010/07/08/maps-database-a-piano-database-for-multipitch-estimation-and-automatic-transcription-of-music/

Is the download page.

Does anybody have this dataset, have another pointer to where I could find it or is there someone who is in contact with one of the authors?

Thank you very much for any help you can provide.

best,

Jacques

>No, you'll just remove them from the economy without their consent, by introducing regulation to artificially lower supply

A few things:

1. Presumably any carbon tax would have to be secured and defended by our democratic institutions. Thus we would have consent (or as close as you can get to large scale consent in our multi-actor society). While I agree that regulating basic consumption for large swaths of the economy has a bit of an authoritarian bend to it, I'm not sure how else we incentivize ourselves to decrease consumption.

2. Lowered supply is not a given. Companies would be incentivized to find production chains, energy sources, and materials that had a lower impact (and thus a lower tax). Less impactful products would be able to price themselves under the high-impact products and satiate the demand.

EDIT Added 3. Consumption itself is not the enemy. The thing we want to minimize is negative externalities. It just so happens that under our current system, manipulating levels of consumption is the only lever our society has for affecting industrial emissions.

Germany's new "campus network" spectrum regime is the first step towards this. It isn't true free access for everyone, but it makes approx 90 MHz of usable mobile spectrum in the ~3.5 GHz band available.

The Netherlands has had around 5 MHz of DECT guardband spectrum available for private use, which is also useful. The UK has announced a new way to "share" access to 3.3 MHz of DECT guardband (plus 10 MHz of 2.3 GHz, and any unused mobile operator spectrum).

Coverage blackspots are definitely a problem, but with these moves, maybe we can see some initiatives like these helping? The biggest challenge is likely in getting incumbent operators (paying billions for spectrum) to work with people willing to build these kinds of networks - until that happens adoption may struggle, and it is hard to onboard users and create good business models. Spectrum was definitely a barrier but in rural areas in northern Europe, hopefully this will be less of an issue going forward.

"Give each person a carbon ration" agreed. Achieving this with each individual could be the hard part where as enforcing a company to "behave" and/or limit consumers from buying excessively could be quicker win that achieves the same goal.

I’m replying to this statement.

Pay scale for programmers at large organizations I'm aware of starts around $55K and tops out around $100K. And non-profits or small businesses pay even less.

That’s clearly not the case in the US for any of the top markets even if you exclude the west coast and NYC. It’s easy to find average salaries in major US cities.

Why are companies willing to pay more? Because they have to to even get your bog standard CRUD developer. Outsourcing to other countries is either not an option or come with its own share of issues.

You sidestepped my question though, why shouldn't they be allowed to refuse service if the toll is clearly explained? There are plenty of users who are content to receive $free services in exchange for their data, why shouldn't they be allowed to spend their data if they want to and why shouldn't services be allowed to cater exclusively to them? I'm not trying to come off aggressively so I apologize if I have, but to me this just seems like you're unhappy with how other people are choosing to transact. If $free services are so dominant in the market, not saying they are but now I'm speaking hypothetically, that people like yourself can't find alternatives then isn't that really just an indication that the traditional business model has been thoroughly outcompeted and should be moved away from since it's nonviable by comparison?

I'd rather 100 people know 1% about me than 1 person know 100% about me. Even if the only thing duckduckgo did was spread knowledge about me thinner, it would have value. Google already has most of my email (because most people I send emails to use gmail) and my youtube viewing history. Giving them my general search history as well isn't something I'm keen on.

Duckduckgo isn't perfect but they're better than google. If I knew of something better than duckduckgo, I'd use that instead. But I'm not going to let perfect be the enemy of good.
For once, I don't see what the big deal is. If anything, I think it surprising that Apple didn't fully excise GPL stuff long ago; as this blogger notes, it's not like they couldn't pull BSD components in.

> They already annoyed and inconvenienced a lot of people with the Samba and GCC removal.

I'm curious at both of these, albeit for different reasons. I'm pretty sure there are BSD-licensed smb stacks, so this doesn't strike me as a licensing issue so much as a "wanting to remove a component that they have no interest in" issue. And why was removing GCC inconvenient? Clang is a perfectly serviceable C compiler.
