The narrative here is internally consistent but there are a few pieces that I don't quite understand when it meets reality:

* It's suggested is that Visa will 'fix' the security concerns that Plaid introduces (the use of username & password collection), but it seems unclear how Visa would be able to change the fundamentals of the Plaid<->bank interactions?

* It's also theorized that European banks will prefer to use Plaid rather than a privately recommended solution (not referenced in the article) to achieve EU open banking compliance. Do Plaid have strong relationships with EU banks at present, and would it not be more likely that Plaid would implement against the existing EU open banking APIs (single implementation, no lobbying) than that Plaid would implement their own alternative (requiring per-institution implementation, and also lobbying to ensure their approach is accepted both by banks and EU regulators)?
Panpsychism is often put forth as a solution to the dualism/physicalism problem. That is...sort of the entire point. To call it obfuscated dualism is to completely misunderstand the idea, so much so that I have a hard time believing you've read any material on the topic.

This is covered in the introductory paragraph of the SEP article:

A Taxonomic Approach to Understanding Emerging Blockchain ID Management Systems
For a different thought of how to do it, I self-host a Wordpress site that is essentially a diary. However, right now the scope is to keep track of recipes that I have made, if I liked them, and where I found them.

While I could have made a notes app, this allows my fiancée to look at it, comments on it, or make her own posts to give her thoughts too (though she hasn't used it).

I have thought about expanding it into a more general blog (technical or otherwise), I haven't gotten to that step yet.

Thinking about it, I could make a cron service on it to ask me "what's going on" with a link to make a new post as well, and make it optionally private (so only I or who I choose can see it).
But generally that 1 percent probably spends a heck of alot of money and pay the people to recognize the difference I'm sure.
Preventing the Death of the Dataframe
According to the article, they found Chrome OS extremely lacking, and it seems that tablet mode on a PC was a need, and something that standard "tabletable" PCs fell short when running a usual distro. Apparently Surface PCs with WSL hit the sweet spot for them. This makes sense: I think a common attitude is that the CLI for Linux is top-notch, whereas the UI and its shortcomings is something you learn to live with. Making Windows the "front end" for Linux seems like a good solution depending on your needs.
I thought it was because you had to rotate the usb plug through 4d space to get it into the correct orientation.

Author here. When I made the correction, I took a look at what `ldd /usr/local/bin/hugo` gave me, because `hugo`, the static website generator I use, was packaged as a binary. `ldd` returned `not a dynamic executable`. I was originally under the impression that `grep` was similar to `hugo` in that sense, and `ldd` changed my perception.

Possibly. But I remember very specifically thinking about the person in question prior to receiving the message.

We really don't understand that much about consciousness (or many other phenomena). It's not that outlandish that there may be some strange behaviour of time. Many physicists suggest its structured more like strings or otherwise more "liquid" than a linear timeline

I have containers for: Banking, Google (and the few places where I use Google as my SSO provider), Work, and then a general "I'm Signed In" container.

I also use the Temporary Containers extension for added privacy, though it's... still pretty rough around the edges, particularly when dealing with sites that use SSO (since kicking out to an OAuth provider causes a new temporary container to be opened, which then messes up the auth flow).

This already exists in Python in the form of comprehensions

sum(x * x for x in [1,2,3,4,5] if x % 3 == 1)

I'm not familiar with Lucid but maybe evaluating the implementation of comprehensions could help solve some of the design challenges.
If you expect to reliably be able to fix something -- especially at scale -- you need to understand how it works.

Specifically, you need to understand how it should work, where it's deviating from that, and what you can do to address it.

I suppose that with enough time and attention one could build a proof system that accounts for things like Rowhammer and timing attacks but are we even anywhere close to that right now?

The only time anyone wrote a mechanical proof for my code, I was still finding security bugs a year later. One in particular stands out.

(note to bosses: never, ever ask the security guy "what's the worst that could happen?" the worst that could happen is always along the lines of "we go out of business and you go to jail", maybe add on "people could die," depending on domain. "How bad is this?" will get you more coherent answers)

Most importantly, you deal with prosecutor, advocate and judge, but not a jury like in the USA, so lying to the Police has much less chance to backfire. Lying stupidly is obviously bad anyway. Lying in court, very bad.

This isn't necessarily true anymore. AMEX has lowered rates over the last few years, and also only charges one rate for all of their cards (from no annual fee up to Platinum & Centurion cards). Visa on the other hand charges different fees depending on the tier of card (Platinum, Signature, Infinite), with the higher tier fees being higher than AMEX IIRC. In fact, some retailers (Hello, Kroger) have gone to bat with Visa over the high fees and stopped accepting their cards (even if temporarily) recently.
Now cars end up in a landfill when the encrypted wireless key fob falls in a puddle because no one wants to pay $900 just for the right to open the door and start the engine.
It probably is, unlike nazi death camps, gulag prisoner behave more like city dwellers in the middle of Siberia. There were no fences because of you leave the camp/city there’s almost 0 chance to survive. Condition were brutal during Stalin years, primarily due to lack of food. A number of cities started as gulags/incorporated gulags still exist in Siberia/Arctic.

If you picture a camp with fences and prison guards, yeah that’s wrong.

If you think I’m defending gulags, note that all of what I’ve said are objective and can be factually proven/disproved. If you feel that way, you probably should investigate your own bias (i.e does my feeling preclude me from believing in facts?)
> I think a dating app should never be ad supported

Then it's subscription based, which has been shown to be a hard market to work in. Plus any company that gets paid via subscription has an incentive to keep users on the site and paying money -- which, if a dating app works, won't do. Like, if the app is effective then people will find a partner and stop using it, ending their subscription and cutting costs.

I fail to see how their privacy is different from anyone elses. Or how their kinks are any less or more destructive than others. Grindr is already banned in Iran, Turkey, and Saudi anyway
As far as I can tell those are all events that were taking place in the real world and were also organized on/protested on Twitter - rather than Twitter being the cause and/or sole location of them.

> If panpsychism is correct, then all of our machines would already be conscious. Creating new consciousness wouldn't be possible except maybe in the sense that matter itself can be created under certain conditions.

Right. In this case, the goal would be to "increase" the consciousness, rather than create it.

> What I think you're trying to say is that it might be possible to assemble machines in such a way that a combined "machine consciousness" emerges from the separate low-level consciousnesses of its components. Which may or may not happen with every machine anyway, I'm not sure how you would devise an experiment to test for this.

Essentially, yes. I meant that the model of panpsychism might serve as a useful as a blueprint to create artificial minds from the accumulation of low-level components, even if it isn't necessarily useful as a scientific model of the universe.
Yeah I kinda get it now, but it's still a bit strange for me. I've never shopped for an OOTB linux laptop, nor do I understand why thats a requirement, gnome as supported tablet mode for years too. So was all a bit confusing what the relevance of those 'clues' where.
Interestingly you didn't mention Lua. The best Common Lisp, Smalltalk, and JS systems are always about a factor of 2 to 10 slower than C. This is not very good evidence for your assertion. (I suspect that's true of Dylan too, but haven't tried it.) By contrast, LuaJIT often beats GCC on performance. This is excellent evidence for your assertion.
> I think the proposal is well-intentioned and shortsighted.

Could also be evil and long-term: user agents won't matter anymore once everything is auto-updated Chrome, right?
It's very weird that one browser is so dominant that they, somehow, are expected to make some sort of dictatorial decision on this. If there were meaningful competition, it would not be a problem, since people would just swap browsers. That people think Chrome could single handedly destroy the internet if they made the wrong choice seems to indicate that there's a huge problem. One company shouldn't be able to screw over either side- the internet is huge, and we've delegated these decisions to exactly one company. It's bananapants.

I think there's a lot of homo-exceptionalism in the challenges to this hypothesis.

What I mean by that is, everyone is incredulous that stones can have the same experience as humans, but consider it the other way around: humans have essentially the same experience as stones. Both react to the physical processes happening at their peripheries in dynamically-consistent ways, i.e., computing a quasi-deterministic function. The conclusion then is that since we are conscious, there's no reason that stones couldn't also be. It's a matter of degree, encoded in the complexity of that quasi-deterministic function mentioned above.

The main difference between us and stones is that, in order for our DNA to have arisen and propagated itself this far, it had to have a strong set of skills to survive over the history of the universe. It can literally create lumps of proteins that achieve that goal. For the body of the animal, being aware of its own history by constructing a self-consistent and closed narrative arc (the 'I' that we all contend and interact with) obviously has advantages, since it would be hard to operate in society without pre-defined and agreed-upon roles, which we assume as our identity.

So the fact that we experience reality as such, with our emotional reactions and persistent self-narrative, is an evolved trait which helped the human genome become the dominant life form on Earth.
I tried using Linux a couple of times on laptops. Multiple distros and devices. Power management is a disaster. I want to close the lid and not think about the computer sleeping. Nope. Trackpad drivers are beyond help. High resolution screen support is still weird. List goes on.

Anyway, WSL allows using a sane desktop environment and the great Linux kernel together. I think it is exciting as it might finally be the year of desktop linux when the desktop is actually Windows.
It's not just those feds. Lying to the FBI is a very bad idea. And even if you're guilty of something, they may let it go if it's not their focus. When the feds were first looking for the source of recreational drugs found by the postal service, they interviewed recipients. And as I recall, they didn't prosecute many (any?) of them. Or at least, not end users.

a media query will not tell me what OS it is so i can infer the metrics of native fonts and form controls. i would have to use JS and create sentinel elements to make the measurements, which would still be a form of slower, shittier sniffing.

also, a media query or any other client side method prevents me from delivering exactly the final content that's necessary and not have to do additional reflow-inducing js to get the end result.
I was in Paris last summer: e-scotters rentals are everywhere (we used them). In Boston they're all over neighboring city brookline (In the morning I see them parked on the bridge to Boston where they're not allowed). People use bike shares all over the Boston area (I see them often on my bike rides). I think these going to be popular.

I thought it was clear (though obviously not) from the example that it was an idealised case, where "ownership" was referring to exclusive use. Your counter-example does not fit that simplified model - you are effectively describing a case where there is one car per person. The premise is not that "wasting money is wasteful", but rather that unequal distribution of resources is wasteful.

It is not the case that all investment is done by wealthy people - large amounts of investment is carried out and directed by governments. Indeed, my understanding is that, if one properly accounts for failed enterprises, there is no significant evidence for greater efficiency in private markets than public ones, both in terms of time-averaged economic growth, and in terms of generating large technological improvements.
No, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aX3ZABCdC38 (first few minutes).
Usually it has to be a little bit more than that (but not much) and part of a contract. If you just start adding corporate logos to your site you'll end up talking to lawyers eventually - at least if you have any sort of traction.

On the other hand "Used by X" can mean anything from "X uses us as a core part of their workflows" and "A small team at X uses this sometimes". So don't give it much weight.
Totally agree! It will be interesting to see how this fares as a business model...

One might argue that a healthy corporate environment is one where someone is tracking dollars in and dollars out. In such an environment, an expensive employee who doesn't produce a lot of value over a period of time would be headed to the chopping block, whether they are respected or not. Companies don't run on respect, they run on profits.

That said, I think in many situations what you say is true. Most people are not rational, even in a corporate context where you'd expect them to be. In those situations, being seen as a cool risk taker might be enough to keep your job.
In most cases they were just running a tab. Unless you make the customer pay a deposit up front, any gap between the purchase and the invoice being paid is an extension of credit.
Same algorithm for everything.

This cartoon explains it:

It is a vector + timestamp + lexical sort.

A delete is changing a value to `null`, it would lose (I assume you are asking if/when these 2 changes happen at the exact same microsecond time, conflicting?) as is it has a lower lexical rank.
Cars are parked almost everywhere because sanctioned car parking areas are ubiquitous. There are still issues with people parking cars wherever they want, especially by the more well off who can afford the parking tickets. I see cars on sidewalks, double parked, parked in non-parking areas etc. It's just that they are a smaller percent of total cars. I expect the issue would get worse before it improved if the number of official parking spots was reduced
I'm not sure why any of this requires third-party cookies or the bloatware that modern websites have become in order to enable this sort of tracking by dozens of entities. The most healthy and consumer-friendly advertising ecosystems (broadcast/cable TV and podcasts are good examples) are the ones where individual tracking is _not_ possible. As soon as it becomes a pure numbers game tied to individuals, then you get the arms race of fraud and manipulation that has led us to the current terrible state of the web.
Sure? I guess so.
You're right, but only in the sense that panpsychism doesn't answer any questions. Literally any. The only thing it does is split the question of ‘where does human consciousness come from?’ into ‘how does human consciousness reduce to proton awareness?’ and ‘where does proton awareness come from?’

But you'll note that this is a harder question than the original, since it postulates more and conflicts with more evidence.
Lots of non-ad companies rely on advertising. You would probably kill every marketing department worldwide. You would probably throw a huge number of companies in the world into chaos as they try to figure out how to grow revenue. The world would probably enter a depression worse than the 1920s as revenues severely tank because companies are not allowed to advertise their business.
Many of the areas that were governed to 8mph were very popular boardwalks, after many people were injured and an older guy was hit and died. The convention center is more nuanced, because lots of it is heavy traffic street. But there is no reason a scooter needs to go even 8mph on the boardwalk, imo. Often times people are on them in groups bombing by you, and if you're trying to just go on a walk and enjoy the beach with kids or dogs its kind of lame.

If it's being used to commute, you can go literally 60 feet inland and go as fast as you want.

I don't think so, I am set up on mobile to use a password safe for account login, then I delete all cookies and state on log out.
