Uh, this isn't true. Even their paper cites previous work. I guess it's PR speak.

A little disappointing that it just guesses solutions and doesn't offer proofs.

Re: #2, it's also possible that an ad you saw and dismissed prompted you to start thinking about replacing your TV, and then a later ad from the same campaign seems like an odd coincidence.

Yes, inequality only makes people unhappy if it is visible. Ergo, instead of asking developers to incorporate affordable housing, we should be encouraging more gated compounds.

How does the bounty work?
Some content creators are already doing this. I'm seeing more spinning up their own newsletters or RSS feeds, patreons, direct donations, subscriptions services (or completely independent platforms). There is an awareness of the dangers of putting your eggs in one basket, let alone the dangers of putting them in a basket as opaque and uncertain as Facebook.

CollegeHumor had a lot of hits and spawned some genuine talent that is now earning money on its own merits (Jake and Amir, Adam Conover) but overall the content was not consistent enough to have an overall draw that was worth subscribing to.
Bingo. All this talk about market shares is not about monopsony.

Arguably Android is also monopsony.
Hey, I made the prototype for it. I reverse engineered a Littmann cardiology 3 and used a similar diaphragm setup. For the early prototypes I used the one that came with the Littmann stethoscope; later on we got the same result with different approaches, such as cutting out one out of transparent plastic sheet or using shrinkwrap around it.

Axes of Quality
depends on your audience
Facebook faking viewership numbers is really an under-reported story. So many publishing companies had moderately successful business models. Then Facebook came along with their amazing viewership numbers. Everyone "pivoted to video", switched to targeting native Facebook views, and chasing those unbelievable viewership totals. The views ended up being well lower than reported which means the promising revenue never materialized like expected. By the time companies realized this, it was too late to pivot back to hosting their content on their own site because the behavior of their users had already been broken by Facebook. This destroyed countless publishers including CollegeHumor and the similar Funny or Die. It is amazing that Facebook only paid a $40m settlement for this fraud.

MMC defines trim as an optional command. But maybe to your point I've generally only seen it implemented on eMMC chips, not SD cards.
For many old games, it's not even certain whether the source code even exists any longer. I'm always impressed with the sometimes herculean efforts that fan communities will achieve to patch and fix old abandonware games.
I’d agree if iMessages was open platform. It’s beyond ridiculous that Android is limited to SMS (or their messaging app) but iPhone shuts out everyone for a basic utility function.

I wish the US Government and regulators were pushing for this as opposed to trying to break encryption or force backdoors.
I had two thoughts yesterday:

- emotional investment. Experiences like the last of us are much greater than any critically acclaimed tv show imo. And this is because of the limitations of the tv medium. A video game gets you more emotionally invested because you are active when playing. Perhaps interactive movies are a compromise.

- boardgames, websites and UI. Remember back then when all websites were using flash and all looked different? It was pretty cool. Yet you still had to learn a new UI for every website you visited. Nowadays all websites seem to exhibit the same UI and everybody (even my grandmother) is browsing the web. A header, a nav bar, a home button, a register button, a login button, etc. I feel the same about boardgames. When you get into a new boardgame you know you’ll have to 1/ read the rules 2/ play one game to learn and 3/ profit. Videogames are the opposite. Each game is a totally new experience, even in terms of menu or configuration or controller setup. Your friend has a different console? You’ll have to learn a new controller. It’s way harder to invest yourself in videogames, or to start a new videogame.
3 Engineering Mistakes on Our Way to Launching to 142 Users
I live in an apartment and I find chargers for my Model 3 without an issue. They're often free despite me being in a part of the US where trucks rule.
That raises profound and fascinating philosophical questions about the nature of knowledge and happiness. I wonder how many of those people would choose to forego the knowledge of what they don't have if it meant they would be happy again. On the other hand, is that even a meaningful question to ask, given it's not possible?

Which of course leads to the ethical question: is it right for people to live in ignorance if it makes them happy, it it's not their choice? Is it fundamentally better for people to be happy rather than aware of massive inequality (up to and including significant poverty)? How much would be appropriate to hide, for how much additional happiness? Is it better in the long run for some to be unhappy if it brings attention to inequality?

I don't have any of those answers, but they're interesting and challenging questions.
I guess I just think it's funny that we need scientific studies for blatantly disingenuous claims: "their task is to simply provide information and in that way they raise human well-being."

It's like doing a scientific study on the common claim of advertisers that "the internet would not exist without advertising".
For some reason, I just don't like the spacing in Fira Code... I really like Inconsolata/Consolas myself... I've tried both, but it just feels off to me.

Aside: Hopefully this font has box and line art characters and they align properly... this is a huge short coming in a number of fixed-width fonts that should be rectified.
> their task is to simply provide information

Hilarious, when advertisements provide so incredibly little information, except how the product looks when held by attractive people, or driven by them along empty roads. And what little information they do provide, comes in tiny font after an asterisk at the bottom of the ad, that they were legally forced to include.
I feel slightly insulted by your point of view. You seem to be saying that advertising is like medicine, it might taste bad but it will end up being good for me in the end. Short of moving to a cabin in the woods, there is no way to actually escape advertising if I choose. And even limiting advertising takes a lot of effort.

I'm not just talking about ads on web pages - it's in movies, TV, on the sides of buildings, on the back of every car on the road, on every radio station, in every store, at every gas station, every few hundred yards on every interstate, every bus stop, every telephone pole, in every magazine and news paper.

I don't want to take this medicine, please stop shoving it down my throat. I'm perfectly happy without all of these healthy "aspirations" to guide me in my life.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm dyslexic so I did actually spend a long time picking a readable typeface for the website since I often struggle with some of the artistic choices other designers inflict. I found this typeface (and the other stylings of the site) to be what was easiest for me to read.

However I do acknowledge that I haven't conducted any form of research into other people's opinions and nor have I tested the site on many other platforms aside Firefox and Safari. So what works for me might not work for other people.

To that end, if others agree it's not the most readable typeface (or any other issues with the site are pointed out) then I will definitely change it. As you rightly say, being readable is the most important concern for that site.

I try not to judge people by their respective comments but in this case I would venture to guess you are below 25 years of age.
Weird, I would say the opposite. Video games, and now VR, are the most immersive experience you can get. I wonder if you would change your mind after playing a game like the last of us.
Rooms or floors that don't get used don't need to be cleaned very often. Dust accumulation is basically nonexistent in the absence of human activity. If the building uses anything other than forced hot air for heating the dust accumulation will be lesser still.

A couple janitor would have a commercial building that size cleaned in a night of work. There's no reason the owners can't use the same techniques one Saturday a month.
Well, that's secret information

> We could not possible disagree more. I think it is straight-up immoral for anyone to intentionally make another's life worse in order to sell them stuff.

I'm not sure we disagree, actually. I think you may be misunderstanding my meaning.

When I tell you about a product, a number of things are happening:

1. If I'm successful in getting you to want the product, I've created (or emphasized an existing) dissatisfaction. That's not good. But:

2. I've given you the knowledge of a solution to your problem. Depending on the problem at hand, the solution might improve your health, extend your life, help you earn more money, be a better parent, donate to a charity, etc.

So I think if you want to stand in judgment of the morality of advertising, it has to be done on a case by case basis, and you have to weigh all the pros and cons.

I'll give you an example of a type of advertising that will clearly decrease your happiness but is still a net positive. (Impossible, right?)

Take a look at any ad for any charity. Those ads make your life worse by telling you how miserable things are for some group of people or animals or some other cause. And even if you "buy" what the ads are selling (i.e. you give them money), you're still going to feel like garbage about their cause. And yet, I'm willing to bet you wouldn't consider those ads to be evil, would you?

It's an extreme example, but it illustrates my point: you have to consider more than just happiness.

Here's a more extreme example: If all I cared about was making people happy, I'd sell heroin. Heroin feels awesome. Heroin makes people happy. It also destroys their lives in the process. Some addicts manage to be happy all the way to their death bed.

So happiness is not the end-all-be-all measurement of what is good and what is bad. It's definitely A measurement. I'm not discounting it. I'm just saying there are other things to consider as well, and I don't personally consider it the #1 most important measurement. (It's probably in my top 5.)
I think you may not realize how many bugs NASA programmers are making. For instance, see the fairly simple mistake made on Deep Impact spacecraft:

Like I said, of course it's more complicated than that. Also, I will point out, that we are all "stupid" at some point.

I’m a bit tired to read this type of comments throughout this thread. I can guess that this is written by people who never have enjoyed a good experience playing video game and then produce a theory that video game are just a bad medium. I’d say whoever is reading this: Play “the last of us” and understand how video games can be a much greater medium that movies and tv cannot emulate.
>CollegeHumor is blaming this on Facebook for faking viewership numbers.

Facebook should certainly be held responsible for their part, but let's not let CollegeHumor of the hook. In the end, they are responsible for their business, and moving to an unproven platform is very risky no matter what promises FB sales people tell you.
The tourniquet is a "knock-off" of the North American Rescue CAT[1]. I'd be pretty wary of using it in real life... The windlass ends up under a lot of shear force, and I would be surprised if a printed thermoplastic was able to deal with that without failing with some regularity. I've seen cheap injection molded versions snap, and I'd expect the same here.

In reading their "field validation" blog po... err... "reports", it looks like they failed pretty badly. Seems irresponsible to be publishing a design they know is badly flawed.

I guess I'm not such a devotee of the free market. Ignoring legal theories for a moment and thinking about what ought to be, it seems clear to me that society at large is not well-served by having the defining artistic medium of our age in control of a single company, and censored to Disney-like levels.

Come up with whatever theory under existing laws or come up with some new laws, but it seems to me like this is a ridiculous situation that should have a legal remedy.

Inevitably, reading this makes me think of the well-known quote by Jeff Goldlum's character, Dr. Ian Malcolm, in Jurassic Park:

Having read the article, it seems they are concluding a causality that isn't necessarily there.

The whole study is based on: there's a correlation between advertising spend per capita and life satisfaction between countries in Europe.

Now that COULD mean advertising is making people unhappy.

Or it could mean that people who are less satisfied tend to buy more crap and when people buy more crap they get more advertising. It's not as if advertisers are stupid.

The researcher in the article even admits to this being a one off with no other studies backing his claim. Now what's more likely, he discovered something no one else has, or he misinterpreted the data?
The problem with Patreon is that it's also getting quite bad for content creators (at least there were a lot of complaints about half a year ago) with the cut they take, the money transfers, and the fact that they've tried to ban adult content creators. It would have been fine if this was all stated/implemented right away but, much like many other platforms, they're doing this at a slow creep. There are alternatives but they're coming up against a well-known name and stifling competition, same problem as with Facebook, just on a smaller scale.

The process isn't that interesting to be honest. I just used a crossword solver to find all the English words ending with "sh" and then Googled them to see if projects already existed.

Then I Googled different types of shells in nature to look for something that sounded interesting. That's where 'murex' came up, it's a genus of a sea snails and it also loosely followed the UNIX naming convention (Linux / Unix / Minix / etc).
