Dang's job is to keep HN aligned with its purpose, which is to be a place for discovering and discussing content that "gratifies one's intellectual curiosity".

That means flamewar sparks and anger-inciting comments about predictably-politically-charged topics simply don't belong.

It's a full-time job just doing that; fact-checking is not a service he has time to provide, and factuality doesn't greatly affect whether a comment is outside the guidelines (everyone makes mistakes, there's nothing wrong with that; it's how you express yourself that matters here).

It's not even about topics that are controversial; Dang has said many times that controversial topics are fine to be discussed here; they just have to be discussed in a way that gratifies curiosity (i.e., we can learn things from the discussion), rather than stirring up partisan rage.
I remember a few months ago I saw some crows in a park. They were going through a bin and pulling out McDonalds paper bags, and ripping them apart to see if there was anything inside.

Whenever someone came near they would move away from the bin and started looking around aimlessly, as if to say "there's nothing going on here".

Stereotyping can be a tool of racism, but to do that I think it needs to imply the inferiority or superiority of an ancestry-group. It's not clear to me that holding a grudge is either a positive or negative quality.
A wild untrained human animal isn't that bright. We can probably operate above the crow level, but maybe not by much.

What makes us special is persistent collective learning and abstract communication.

Unlike animals, generations of humans don't have to keep re-solving the same problems. As a species we have cumulative persistent memory for techniques and abstractions. That's the real game changer.

But it took a surprisingly long time - tens of thousands of years - for our brains to make this ability central to culture. And there's no guarantee that if we re-ran history we'd do it again on the same scale.

It's fine as long you know the game you're playing.

And this is the big issue : no one learn has told you, neither taught you how to play it. But some people were. Those are fine.

For the others (me included) we had to figure out on our own. Learn that we played the game the wrong way, or find another place. It took time, and a lot of investment and efforts are wasted in the process. And some people never learn. Meanwhile, those people stole undeserved credit. And if you ask them, they will tell you its thanks to their leadership and all that bullshit.

It's the opposite. They found the issue .well-known exists to solve.

In that section they got /security.txt and /keybase.txt and explained why validating based off a file in the root directory is a terrible idea.

Also, the issue was not on those sites. The issue was with keybase's logic.
I would imagine that the current google captcha system has so much traffic, you could use it to power real time driving with static pictures. Set 20 people to tell you if there is a stop sign. 50 more to decide if that object in the road is dangerous or not. All you need is a decent number of responses coming back that agree.

Oh please - if it were the EU that was winning on this particular metric the author would have put it absolutely front and centre. And the supposedly dystopian, degenerate hellhole that is the UK is apparently so preferable to France for a significant number of migrants that they'll risk crossing the busiest shipping lane in the world, in the dark, in an inflatable dinghy to get here.

I'm quite happy to be convinced by a well argued piece, but the article is a long way from that. Quite apart from anything else, even if the author wants to motivate change his 'analysis' (if you can call it that) is stunningly reductionist to the point of worthlessness. There isn't one 'Europe', and the EU is not Europe. And there isn't one America. Take southern Italy for example - decades of terrible economic performance, utterly resistant to measures aimed at improvement. Is that "good"?

Nevermind his qualifications thus far - the author would benefit from taking first year undergrad Geography.

Sorry, but that comparison is just wrong.

Can I shut that thing down if I don't need it, not having any cost? What about electricity, is there a backup in case there is a power outage?

This is about cloud offer vs cloud offer and not a discussion about cloud vs self-hosting.

Side-note: You probably want to go with ECC memory for your server build.
Certificate auth for http with TLS and Kerberos auth for http is specified, supported by all (major desktop) browsers.

However: The UX on the browser side is shitty as hell. Certificates display weird nagscreens, without being able to specify proper defaults like "use this cert for that site and don't bother me again". Certificate enrollment has been broken (not that the form element was ever great) by all major browsers, to be replaced by "do something in Javascript maybe, if we get around to implementing a new API some time". Oh, and no logout...

Kerberos needs a parameter at browser start or an about:config setting, is incompatible with using multiple TGTs let alone automatically selecting the right one or gasp getting a new TGT for the user from the proper KDC. The only thing that kinda works mostly is using the standard company login TGT. Oh, and logging out doesn't work...

Oh, and of course most mobile systems are broken or just unsupported.

The sorry state of browser auth is 100% on browser vendors dragging their feet on those problems that have been known for around 20 years or so. And no, webauth won't save us, it'll just be another shitshow most likely.
That's a fair point. My comment was imagining a project where the customer was the user/users.

> The PIN requirement for usage must be a European thing.

It is. Over here a credit and a debit card work in significantly different ways. In the USA (and probably other countries too) a debit card is just a credit card that's more likely to get declined and gets billed slightly differently. Over here they are entirely different transaction systems as far as I can tell.

Why would it matter how big the plane is? For a certain battery energy density and battery mass fraction, you should get a certain range, no matter what the size of the plane is. If anything, large planes should be a bit more efficient.

I think hybrid would be a great compromise. Short range jets spend a lot of kerosene just during taxi and takeoff. If you could just do launch and climb on batteries and then replenish the batteries from a jet powered generator during cruise, that would already be huge in terms of not just CO2 but also ops cost.

Here are a few more:

* Aggressive rate limiting that makes it hard to use the API in real world situations. Especially if there is no documentation about what the limits are.

* Throwing errors with no explanation about what went wrong or how to correct it. Especially effective if given two very similar requests, one succeeds and the other one fails.

* Throwing errors randomly / when under load / when not under load / based on the phase of the moon.

* Having absolutely no example code anywhere in the documentation.

* Requiring hundreds of lines of code to even establish a connection to the API.

* Requiring a specific client library to access the API. Extra points if it's Windows only or requires a specific out of support version of Python 2.

Once, I had to organize a meeting to propose a big reorganization of the supervision of our main software. There were some functional changes et some UI changes. I was inpired by the story about Steve Jobs and the calculator. I have brought a prototype where I could change fonts (size, boldness, italics, color), some text and tooltips. This meeting was a success. The stakeholders were happy to have influenced the UI. All the functional changes were accepted. No further roundtrip.

Neat, I might check out Slack. Kinda annoys me how every workspace has its own login and just find chat apps somewhat distracting to run but I know a lot of projects use Slack.

I'm more of a Node and Typescript person though, but I know Golang is popular. I want to try to run babylon.js on the server side using its nullEngine to be authoritative. Still doing a lot of research though, so not sure if it will end up being a actual project. There was another project in Go I came across relating to WASM too that looked interesting.

I know some projects or companies they are a polyglots though, whoever starts a new project picks whatever, but I'd prefer to limit things 1 or 2 languages on the backend as I think code reuse and would make it more maintainable. Like if it grows from an idea to a company, seems like having everyone on one tech helps with hiring and moving around resources. But I feel whatever you pick probably going to be locked into it for a while, like picking the right database but I know some projects run 2 or 3 databases... Social functions might use one, billing might be another one, search is another one.

But yeah I liked WebRTC for voice for sure, but wanted to use it for other parts of the system too for the instance simulations to be able to connect to each other directly, but I guess I could always just use raw IPs too but it seemed like WebRTC gives you some things built-in for free like securing the data channels. I was thinking if I used WebRTC for voice only, then all I'd need to do is write some sort of API running inside of the cluster and just run the WebRTC servers outside of the cluster, since wanting to mix the audio on the servers to cut down on bandwidth to users, and also increase privacy a bit for users.
Everything, it's a horrible horrible API.
When trucks go electric, they'll be a lot easier to control. Current trucks are optimized for truck drivers. They become a lot simpler if you no longer need to worry about transporting humans. IMHO autonomous ICE vehicles on the road will probably not happen because they are getting replaced with cheaper EVs in roughly the same time frame that autonomous driving is happening and not having to worry about complex engines simplifies the job of automating things.
It's pretty well demonstrated/documented that the psychopharmacology of people with ADHD is different to that of people without ADHD. Just because Scott Alexander overlooks that information and cherry-picks examples to dismiss based on anecdote (For example, see how he dismisses the one case with "kids are just weird" without even bothering to consider that the psychiatrist in question had more information about the child and what "regular behaviour" for that child in particular, is) doesn't make that less so.

I actually deliberately stay away from SSC because it has "less wrong" brainworms present. Not only is that community regularly participated in by the founders of neoreactionary conservativism (scott is outspoken against it but it hasn't stopped his site and the LW community having large swathes of them), but they deliberately obfuscate their terms and have a distaste for any literature that could disprove their pet theories or how they constantly misapply bayes theorem, and they regularly produce articles based on spurious evidence that can sound convincing to laymen who do not know enough about the subjects in question to understand why their ideas are incorrect, or to rebutt them.
I think generally their mantra is to choose sensible (though that's debatable) defaults, and minimise the ability to configure at all. Of course, that drives some people insane, and even if you generally like it, you're totally stuck if they make a choice you don't like. Same goes for hardware -- I really like macOS, but if Apple started, oh I don't know, releasing laptops with non-functional keyboards, I have nowhere else to go.

I get more frustrated by the lack of communication of activity/failure states though. So much of their software on both iOS and macOS will give you nothing more than a spinner to indicate activity, then if something goes wrong will just...fail silently. Even informing the user that something failed is despairingly rare.
That reminds me of the kitchen scene in Jurassic Park: "Unless they figure out how to open doors." :)

It seems like you're suggesting that there aren't massive biological differences between a wild human and a crow. This is false. Humans have many biological faculties that crows simply do not have.

For example, the wild, untrained human still has the biological faculty of language.

That is, there is a reason why no animal other than a human has been shown to be able to learn a language. The reason is that they do not have the biological faculty of language.

You suggest that "generations of humans don't have to keep re-solving the same problems/" This is correct, but in many important ways it is not because of our culture or because we learn from our elders. But rather it is because of our genetics.

An example of this is that children who are not taught a language will spontaneously create their own. Normally this won't happen, because children can't survive without adults, and adults will teach the children language. But something very close has happened a few times, an example, in itself far from conclusive, but still illustrative: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicaraguan_Sign_Language
And on top of that, one might argue that humanity is highly self-interested by nature, and people with the greatest self-interest will be much more likely to obtain power.
