Housing becomes affordable by filtering down the market, long after it has been built by "return-oriented" developers. Building more and better housing can accelerate this process.
that has to do with two things:

1) our photoreceptors in retina have highest sensitivity to blue

2) blue photons are higher in energy than red (1.5x to 2x, depending on specific frequencies/color temps)

> First, regarding "technology plateau" being unlikely, that presupposes what it oughta prove [1]. We can discuss it as a counter-assertion to mine, but it can't be part of an argument that proves that we're unlikely to be in a plateau, because that would be circular reasoning.

You previously wrote, "It's entirely possible (also for us) that scientific and technological advancement plateaus." I don't see how "entirely possible" equates to "likely", so if you really felt it was likely, you can't blame me for assuming we were in agreement here, because you haven't made that clear until now.

> Second, even if that "technology plateau" is low probability was a legit argument, and even given that "technology plateaus now" is also low probability, and thus their chances of happening together being even lower probability (the multiplication of those two low probabilities) -- that would just prove that "technology plateaus now" is low probability. It wouldn't mean it's impossible, much less that it's not happening.

Yes, but if technology plateaus in the future, it would be the same as if it didn't plateau at all, in that we wouldn't be able to recognize the telltale signs of it, being completely foreign to our own.

> And my assumption wasn't based on probabilities, but on empirical observations. Winning the lottery is low probability. Your first script getting accepted to be made into a major movie is too. But if you have the lottery ticket in your hands, have verified the winning numbers, and you just got a call from a Hollywood director that want's to buy your script, the fact that those two events occurring together are "low probability" doesn't matter. They are reality.

> (Besides, for any two events with low probability that have happened in history, somebody could have made the exact same argument you've made, to "prove" that they didn't happen).

I find your empirical evidence rather weak. You cherry picked the data.

> Plotting the outline of inventions on a timescale, and their impact, one can see that there's a big boom in the 18th century, continues to 19th century, peaking in 20th to mid 20th century. For 60+ years we haven't found anything as big as electricity (Maxwell and co), electric light, combustion engine, telephone, television, internet, photography, AD/DA conversion, nuclear power, transistors, DNA, Quantum Mechanics, penicillin, antibiotics, Relativity, flight, plastics, rockets, etc. Even computers and the internet herald back to 30s and 60s respectively. Where are those equivalent impact theories or inventions (as opposed to mere optimizations and marginal improvements to existing theories/inventions) in the last 60 years?

> I'm sure you'll find a few. I doubt you'll find 1/10th as many as in, say, 1900-1950.

You realize human history started a long while before the 18th century, don't you? We have a long way to go before we drop back to the level of invention attained in the previous millennium. You are extrapolating out tiny fluctuations at the very tail end of the history of humanity, and ignoring the rest of it.

Merry Christmas from Christmas Island, Kiribati! I'm not Marshallese, but the islands are nearby.

Other countries have done terrible things to the atolls here as well. Everywhere untouched by WW2 got bombed anyway, especially by France and Britain.

The UK detonated weapons above Kiritimati in the 1950s without evacuating it. Most locals have moved here since, and although some know about the testing, they have no idea about the risks they're exposed to.

> That said, the compromised database was from a civilian, non-intelligence agency.

Yet they had fingerprints, meaning they must have gotten the data from the government.

But it does lead to a larger question. Articles by cybersecurity people always seem to focus on preventing unauthorized access. I've never read one that talked about given the inevitability of unauthorized access, how to avoid losing everything?

After all, we have ships with watertight compartments. Even spy networks are organized into "cells" to limit the damage from compromised agents.

Why is security not talking about compartmentalization?
The same goes for Scala in my opinion. A company using Scala should restrict themselves to a easily comprehensible subset of Scala.

The color palette is really easy on the eyes. I have a few criticisms, though, all related to the cards under "Recent Articles":

1. In tablet size, the content of <h2>s get lost beneath the top of the card.

2. Even in desktop size, the spacing at the top of the cards looks off. Longer strings cause visual unevenness. CSS Grid should be able to fix the header spacing issues within cards.

3. Hard-coding the height of the cards is probably a mistake. Content should govern the height of the card, so actions such as user zoom or browser-level font size increases, scale the padding of the card appropriately.

4. When hovering over any part of the card, the hover style kicks in and the card text content raises slightly. This is usually a hint to the user that an action can be performed, like a click which follows the href. However, the user must click directly on the <a> inside of the <h2> to follow the link. I recommend making the entire card clickable, so the hover style seems more intentional. Otherwise, I would remove the hover style.
Agreed. The first source cites his own talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBTr9iQQuq4, in which he starts out with the disclaimer:

Suspending disbelief should not be a requirement to make a persuasive argument about a scientific subject. This guy just smacks of snake oil salesman through and through.

The first part is a standard BSD license, however it has a weird extra restriction. It cannot be sold or published in printed form. That is a restriction on use that almost certainly makes it not open source software. It certainly isn't a common license. Game over.

But even if it was open source software, it's unreasonable for people to have to untar that file on a phone. As I posted earlier, if it's OSS, that info needs to be a lot clearer. It certainly needs to be on the front pagd. Requiring a untar is absurd for such basic information.

I'm always wary of comparisons and interpretations that work regardless of what happens. One one thing happens, that's like a brain. When the complete opposite thing happens, that's also like the brain.

It reminds me of bad Freudian analysis: drinking too much or talking too much indicate an oral fixation. So does not drinking enough or talking enough. Also, not drinking or talking excessively is not an indication that you don't have an oral fixation, since any other vague metaphor about the mouth can also indicate an oral fixation.

The behaviors this chip exhibited couldn't be not exhibited by the microchip. The comparisons are suitably vague and can be applied regardless of the outcome of the study. Especially when you consider we don't even know precisely how memory, sleep, or wakefulness work in humans. So you're vaguely comparing a device to something you don't even understand.

The actual paper might be more rigorous and level-headed, but the write-up is pure pseudoscience.

if I actually scraped all the profiles in 2009, then in 2014 and then in 2019 I could tell whether an account is a 10+-year old account by simply checking if it is available in my 2009 snapshot. Does not matter if the social network displays or leaks profile age in one way or another. If it's not in my 2009 and not in 2014 snapshots then that profile is 5- years old. With frequent enough snapshots I would get even better timing resolotion. Now given that it's neither that hard nor that expensive to scrape or store that amounts of data, such an approach would actually be feasible.
Employee error to blame for data leak, Wyze says
I am intimately familiar with license minutiae and history. I wrote Parity (with lots of hackers!) and License Zero.

As for OSI's success, it predates any license list. AFAICT, OSI launched---and achieved media liftoff---with no more than the example license section at the end of DFSG. Only later did the org drop the examples section and start a list. Principally to provide org blessing to companies writing their own new terms for releases. Which was controversial.

Meanwhile, I've yet to find a situation where I'd recommend incorporating the OSI license list into legal terms or functional policy. I've regretted advising as much in the past. And helped clients make others regret it. See: https://writing.kemitchell.com/2019/05/05/Rely-on-OSI.html

You've left some space for constructive criticism, but only nominally. Apparently any deviation from your definition of "open" means I not only get discounted, but need to be actively opposed. But our disagreement is demonstrably narrow: if I struck one numbered item from Parity 6, I take it you might approve!

As for whose views are how popular, I'd note that a few OSI reformers have called for honest opinion polling of developers. Last I checked, those polling proposals have got as far as their reform proposals: nowhere.

By the by, attractive nuisance is a legal doctrine concerning risks to children. Some programmers are in fact children---I got started young---but as a whole, programmers don't need any licensing nanny. Especially if the legal terms welcomed them to read, which in my experience the CC "legal codes" do not.

To get a rough idea of how often a ZIP-9 narrows things down to a single street address, I took a look at the sales tax rate and boundary files made available for states that are in the Streamlined Sales Tax Agreement [1].

12 of those states, Arkansas, Georgia, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Vermont, and Washington, use address-based tax rates. (The other 12 either just have one rate for the whole state, or just go by ZIP).

For each ZIP-9 in the address files for the 12 address-based states, I found the lowest and the highest street number for that ZIP-9. I then counted how many of the ZIP-9s had the lowest street number the same as the highest street number.

There were a total of 9,311,327 distinct ZIP-9 values.

2,415,305 of them had a low to high range that only included one number.

That's about 26% of the ZIP-9's having a unique street number. Note that this does not necessarily mean a single household, because I'm not looking at the full address. Apartment buildings, for instance, will in many cases show up in that 26%.

Military tech is not ahead of civilian tech except for a handful of things that are either useless (stealth aircraft) or illegal (weapons systems) for civilians. And even in those cases, most of the constituent parts of those systems are extremely obsolete by civilian standards.

The idea that the military has a vast arsenal of high tech gadgets and sci-fi weapons is a myth created by Hollywood.

The important context is that inequality driven by Amazon's low wages for non-programmers and their tax dodging has driven Seattle's homelessness crisis and they've tried hard to crush every political movement that tries to stop this (see link), so now they are trying to salvage public perception of their effects on this so they can more effectively spend money on politics to dodge more taxes and keep wages low. It is a move that has much more impact on PR than the specter of homelessness.

Isn't your implication that japan's court system is corrupt. So what would the strength of the case have to do with it? Wouldn't japan have convicted him regardless of evidence?
