> Parity pretends nothing and hides nothing.

It portrays itself as open, it talks all about being "free for open source", it uses pictures like https://licensezero.com/doors.svg (warning, site contains misleading misinformation), but it's intentionally misleading and equivocating, and benefits from the resulting uncertainty and lack of clarity. It's a proprietary software license that tries to convince people to let it into their ecosystem.

What's more dangerous to leave around unlabeled? The poison that looks like glowing green toxic sludge and smells so bad it makes your eyes water, or the poison that looks like clean drinking water at a glance? Which one is more likely to harm the unwary and the uninformed? Parity's brand of poison might not have a label on it that explicitly says "clean water, drink me", but it's more dangerous if you're not deeply familiar with license minutiae and history. It's an attractive nuisance.

> Unlike scores of OSI approved terms, its rules are plain for all to read and understand.

So are the Creative Commons non-commercial and no-derivs licenses, and they're not FOSS either.

> But that is exactly why OSI is where it is right now.

Wildly successful in maintaining a list of licenses people can trust that describe an ever-growing amount of software, against a multitude of threats? OSI is an extremely cautious and conservative organization, as it should be.

> When every OSI critic is a heretic to be ignored,

Constructive criticism can be useful. Competing agendas advancing not-quite-open licenses are not. And no, not ignored, nor elevated to any position as vaunted as "heretic"; ignoring would be dangerous. FUD needs countering, and software that tries to go from FOSS to proprietary (including "proprietary but we wish you'd pretend it's open") needs forking and the original consigned to a historical curiosity and a reference for anyone thinking of doing the same.

> The heretics come to outnumber the faithful.

Only in their wildest dreams. The self-styled "heretics" are just loud.

Your comments do not seem to be addressing this particular study, but rather seem to be directed at the plethora of poorly-designed/over-hyped ML papers that are published on a regular basis. While that is an issue, this particular paper made no claims about disruption and it had nothing to do with diagnostic performance. It was a screening study that appears to make sound comparisons to the performance of five reasonably-qualified radiologists on screening images.

In Apple’s position as a fashion company as much as a tech company, and at Apple’s scale, they can and do invest hundreds of people’s time in making sure that the paint jobs are as good as they can get them.
A tax refund just means they overpaid estimated taxes. It's not "found money".
>Why would you expect that from Tesla?

because literally every manufacturer that sells cars that are more expensive than economy sector vehicles offers loaners at their dealerships fairly casually (in the US).

Granted, it's usually a function of the individual dealership, but it's extraordinarily common.

>Its part of every decent insurance in Europe.

it's a common coverage in the US, too. What's uncommon is involving insurance for warranty work. It'd be more common if the repair work triggered some kind of extended insurance contract from a third party.
Rust can be quite usable and productive if you know the right shortcuts. The tradeoff is somewhat lowered performance (and Rust makes sure that you're aware of where you're choosing that tradeoff) but that's just the way it goes. It's not like Swift is any different.

> but then again it's 2019 and 1MB is not that of a problem for the least powerful smartphones or even embedded systems.

1MB means you basically obliterate caches and torture memory bandwidth every time you want to encrypt a tiny block. But ignoring that...

Low cost microcontrollers with 4k or 8k of RAM total are still used in embedded systems and often have hardware AES built in. Even things like ESP32 are often considered relatively big and have 520k of ram.

There are applications and services that have a million or more connected sockets with encryption at a time. This would represent a terabyte of RAM just for this 1MB block cipher scratchpad.

If one were to just use a megabyte during key scheduling or something-- that's feasible, I guess, but it still locks out a lot of the embedded world.
How the Harry Potter franchise changed film with the Deathly Hallows
I’ve been thinking hard about it all and I realized how to stop it. Just like Google reviews can have a powerful impact on local businesses, we need a truly unbiased online review system for our politicians and corporations that shows which ones cater to lobbyists, etc. That’s why the rich buy and control media outlets, assassinate reporters, jail whistleblowers, etc. The hardest part will be keeping it unbiased and free of fake BS being peddled by various intelligence agencies and other groups.
> If you could just put up housing on land you own and charge however much people will pay for it, this housing crisis would quickly be gone!

It's not that simple. Rapidly increasing the housing supply has all kinds of effects on communities:

* Decreasing the value of nearby homes (supply and demand)

* Increasing traffic and strain on community services like schools

* Environmental impact

* Rapidly changing the demographic and possibly culture of the area

Zoning laws and the permit process exist to help ensure safe buildings but also to help protect the home value of existing residents.

This makes sense in communities with the infrastructure to support it though and we definitely should be looking into ways to safely house everyone.

Number of accidents is not what counts here. It's number of deaths caused per terawatt-hour of generation from a particular source. This normalizes things in the context we need to make energy decisions. The numbers are that coal kills 350 people for every 1 that nuclear kills.

This looks like a great piece of article. Kudos to the people who wrote it because the most sure-shot problem in SSR is running to scaling issues and this is a much needed one.

But here's an unpopular opinion: Server side rendering shouldn't even be a thing. Running a language as dynamic as Javascript on servers, is at best - a problem that can be dealt with, but not necessarily the solution.

I'm saying this as a full-time Javascript developer. We can do better than mandating JS on the servers.

#1. SPA, Components and functional programming is the best thing that happened to web development in the recent past. So, let's stick with it.

#2. But we are stuck with Javascript to embrace these otherwise abstract engineering methods, because browsers are stuck with JS.

#3. Webassembly is here. So why not a UI-framework, that embraces components, SPAs and functional programming but with a better language (something like Elm). A language that compiles to webassembly for browsers to run logic & build UI and runs natively on servers? This hypothetical system should compile to HTML on the servers and support smooth progressive hydration.

Running a bunch of JS on the servers, on a piece so critical like rendering HTML will always be a suboptimal solution. Imagine saving all that server-scaling costs with a much server-cost-friendly language like Rust or Swift?
Seriously, do not waste time on the details of the "reasoning". The pillars of it does not hold water either. Even if you assume these falsehoods, nowhere you go from "you need scare resources" to "private ownership is therefore natural"

In the case of the OPM database, it was outsourced to an outsourcer to an outsourcer who was administering the data from China. What's not discussed in this article is that as administrators, they had full read/write access to the system so we must assume that it is tainted.

While this article cites 2014, I believe investigators concluded the attackers/admins had access starting sometime in 2009.

> Decreasing the value of nearby homes

People often overlook this point way too quickly, they don't consider people with mortgages, if you saved up for a house and purchased with a mortgage then when the flood gates are opened and your house value drops, you now owe more than your house is worth, not a good position to be in.
Many of us, even with other liberal tendencies, think the homeless in Seattle are given too much leeway in the city, especially with the unpolicing and decriminalization of petty crimes going on. The few million used on anti-homeless structures isn’t going to build more than a handful of homes and won’t make a significant dent in the problem. I love Seattle, but it’s hard to move back with a family considering the situation, especially compared to Bellevue where the policing is much more serious.
The interests of our masters, are not our interests. Our interest is that they cease to exist.

> I'll add a bit to @kerkeslager response in stating that a placebo is something that works because you are told it will work

Yes, that was part of my initial point - to the extent that placebo exists, anything can be turned into a placebo with enough marketing. Avoiding blue light could help with sleep quality. Adding more blue light could help with sleep quality. Faith healing could help with sleep quality. Homeopathy, traditional Chinese medicine, ayurvedic medicine, leeching, blood-letting etc. If it only depends on you believing in it, but it does help, I would recommend the cheapest possible remedy that you can bring yourself to trust, and that doesn't have a proven anti-effect (coffee therapy for curing insomnia may not be an effective treatment).

I also detailed some skepticism of the placebo effect in another response here.

You're confusing "tax refund" with "tax rebate."

Also, Amazon had carryforward losses, so they paid too much in taxes in prior years and therefor didn't have to pay taxes this year. Not exactly nefarious, carryforward losses are an intentional part of the tax code that prevents companies from paying more in supposed earnings they have on paper that can never be realized as profit because taxes are based on estimates. Every business, not just Amazon, get carryforward losses when they overpay in taxes.

Edit: I suppose it's equivalent to say it prevents them from overpaying in taxes in the future. That might be easier to understand if you consider that in any given year, a company pays zero in taxes if they don't make money, regardless of how much money they lose. That timing difference means that the tax burden changes from year to year as investments in a company are realized through buying and selling goods. It's a smoothing out of taxes. Instead of forcing Amazon to structure it's business to always make the same profit each year, they get to smooth it out over a maximum of a 10 year rolling window.

Increased density tends to go together with higher real-estate values, not lower ones. (What it does is lower demand for real-estate elsewhere, as the high-density area becomes more desirable due to its better amenities.) And it makes it easier to provide "community services" like mass transit, that obviate increased traffic.

Whether in activism or negotiation, oversimplifying complex problems, then taking absolute positions and refusing to compromise, doesn't work. The only upshot of black-and-white positioning is a reputation for being uncompromising. RMS is and will always occupy that space. And as an activist he'll go down as largely unsuccessful on his own terms, beyond the threshold of popularizing his own ideas among his own kind within his own industry.

The four (actually five) freedoms aren't a very good way to break down what people want to do with software. But RMS and other activists lauded for being uncompromising compromised several kinds of freedom for copyleft, no matter how you slice it. Parity isn't rescinding "run for whatever purpose" wholesale any more than GPLv2 rescinded "patch for whatever purpose". Parity applies share-alike to execution as GPL applied it to patching and extending and AGPL and OSL applied it to ... also execution. How come some freedoms have to be absolute, and others can be qualified with rules that require respecting others' freedom? Because that's how the open source marketers squared feel-good libertarian rhetoric with what RMS and those drafting off him actually wrote in their terms. Nobody outside the small community of wonks and FSF adherents even thinks in terms of the "four freedoms".

As for leaning on copyright law: That law approximates what early FOSS activists opposed, not what they wanted. And we still don't know how far "derivative work" reaches in software under US law. Most FOSS activists aren't happy where the courts seem to be taking it, e.g. under Oracle v. Google.

You don't have to ask me which kinds of copyleft rules I'd support. You can read Parity and API Copyleft for yourself. And I've never referred to those licenses as "open source" myself, though others have. I'm more and more tempted to start.

Saying GPL is FOSS and Parity isn't because FOSS, and defining FOSS to draw the kind at GPL-style copyleft, is circular. That's typical of nearly all the homespun vocabulary, views, and theory of open software licensing. We're trying to apply after-the-fact justifications, theorizations, and rhetoric for what was in essence a marketing coup to new license terms, and they're predictably faltering.

I don't know which pro-permissive, anti-copyleft organization you were referring to, but if it was Blue Oak, you might like to know that I facilitated the drafting processes for both Parity and the Blue Oak model.
Seattle doesn’t really have that problem, lots of new housing is being built, it isn’t the Bay Area. The problem is affordable housing that has little profit to motivate return-oriented developers, and homeless shelters that have huge impacts on the areas where they are placed.

The discussion in blue light is about a light that has radioactivity, the bluer one is usually gained from gamma. What then this may mean is that blue light, the color blue, in gamma, may not be as destructive as we have been led to believe, to sleep patterns. You WILL feel rested to enjoy the morning stretch. But what is wrong in it is that blue light is a color that dyes up into the eyeball and then we have less of the actual light to use in our thought process, so we may just be using blue there as we would use something else in the process of breathing. We may be making it difficult to realize a thing in the dark instead of messing with our rest, as the language of our bodies is not to ignore, it is to discuss.
We may be missing some amount of that same metaphor's existing incidence in the detailing of what might be happening during a blue light. And metaphors are indeed and in fact all we are allowed to use in science. We can render a detail of a result in English only AFTER. To be discussed to, not to affirm. That is in the purchase.
