I've thought this way for a while, but after seeing a few things go live without and with campaigns I think there's an underestimation of how indifferent people are unless they've been primed. Ideas of things to purchase just don't generate in people's heads very much outside of advertising. You could say without advertising we'd all be a lot more satisfied and I'd believe you (see: quarentine), but if you're a business trying to sell more things to more people I no longer think advertising isn't a valid way to put your idea in front of people.

Some form or variation of learned helplessness? Something else?
Ability to assign roles(groups) to heterogeneous users.

So imagine being able to add user@domainA.com, user@domainB.com, and name@nonprofitname.org to cool-dev-group and them being to instantly be able to access the relevant chat rooms, git repos, shared folders, etc. If password/secret management had been added, then access to that too could have been allowed. If SSO/Oauth had been added, then any service could be covered by this sort of role-based-access-control-for-anyone.

So no user has been created, they're using their existing identity to access new resources. With some extra coding, triggers and events could have been added to do things like auto-sign public keys.
4 years ago I co-founded a smart cities business. Basically a wysiwyg schema/api generator for non-technical municipal users. Idea being if you're procuring data generative "stuff" - municipal workers can define an integration point. In the first few months of starting the company, I met with sidewalk labs at their request. We talked about working together and I said that wouldn't be possible because we wanted to give a data tool to cities that was vendor agnostic. They asked me what would happen if we met in a city, I told them they would probably integrate with our platform so the city could have cross correlation of data with other vendors, they told me it was more likely they would make sure we wouldn't exist.
I think this is just the abstraction needed to generate the device tree. Pinouts, bus address strapping, modes - all are/could be specified in the Clash and emitted thru some template or schema. I guess that's the missing part - the dts schema. But its the closest we've ever got!
I've talked about the technical issues in a couple other responses on this post.

This is a genuine problem: the current polarization means that you are either in favor of 5G or a conspiracy theorist. This is not a healthy atmosphere for a rational discussion about long-term impact of 5G.
> much of the pro climate change arguments I see are: all the scientists think it is happening

It’s not if they think it is happening or not - it’s the data they are looking at and the hypothesis being drawn from the observations

What they “think” is the hypothesis.

Anyone can look at the same data and come up with a hypothesis. The important piece is engaging in the scientific method.

Set it up with a temporary card and then yank it out after it's setup. You don't tend to access the BIOS that much.
What about the core i3-8100 with ECC and IGP? The real problem with building a NAS out of these low-end parts is finding the motherboard where ECC actually works. For Ryzen it's roulette, you just have to order one and see if ECC works at all; for Intel you can count on a few vendors but the motherboards cost twice as much as the CPUs and/or have inconvenient shapes.
Because colleges were in the 'money pipe', and could gatekeep. In a free market (which I guess colleges aren't) it would not work that way.
Well, I guess that's it for Keybase. I distinctly remember expressing my worries about them spreading themselves too thin and not really having a clear monetization plan, so an acquihire was the easy way out.

Say, anyone got any Keybase alternatives that are focused only on identity management?
This is a narrow understanding. Rich individuals are setup to benefit from the programs for the poor. Such that what you say is both true and irrelevant. Poor individuals are not benefited.

That's totally fair. I am looking at this through a very US-centric lens, but I'd guess many HN readers are, and certainly Yang's tech supporters were. To also be fair, the user we are talking about doesn't appear to be Finnish or is the study in question true UBI. But that's all pedantic. :)
I assume someone must lend the money (as it's not created from nothing). How does it work?
I mean, I guess. If your argument is "I think it would be a good thing for poor students to never receive loans", then you can take that position.

But intentionally trying to ensure that poor people are never given loans is not usually the arguments that I hear, surrounding student debt.

It's hard to get any conclusion from this article. There is this:

> The researchers also noted a mild positive effect on employment

> Freelancers and artists and entrepreneurs had more positive views on the effects of the basic income, which some felt had created opportunities for them to start businesses.

And, of course, the often neglected (and that appears as a negative on the numbers):

> Some found the guaranteed income increased the possibility for them to do things like providing informal care for their family or their neighbours

But actually nothing of substance on either direction.

Do you have a better article?
Well that is so true, sometimes the glitches are very consistent across a few days and they take time to acknowledge it or will not acknowledge it. Over a few years I have come to understand what is reliable and what is to be double checked and when it is not reliable. I have ended up with bad order executions because of their buggy Kite Web UI that doesn't update at times. The UX for trading is not professional. Don't have to invent a new interface, just look at the existing desktop platforms. And they refuse to provide a desktop trading platform. The only good part is their apis so that people like me can develop their own interfaces. But once I find another broker with reliable REST APIs for OMS and lesser glitches, I will move out.
People feel really entitled to what they earned, because, they earned it. The thing is, their ability to earn it is predicated on society being set up in such a way that the resources available to them make that path of earning possible. It's hardly unreasonable to think that one should pay extra back to society to accommodate that.
I thought the quiz was really missing the point. The whole point of reactive programming is to not worry about execution order.

However if I sounded like I wanted to belittle Rust I really expressed myself poorly, I love the language and hope it'll eventually become the new C++. If anything I was attempting to make the opposite point: you can't fix C/C++'s flaws with a smarter compiler. We're not two releases of GCC away from having safe C without having to change anything.
To be fair, if they had a PE takeover, they likely weren't in great shape before the takeover. The takeover gave them a little bit longer to live at least.

To be fair, finding cheap pork in Central PA isn't hard -- is farm country, yo. We used to get 1/2 pig or 1/4 cow packages from local Mennonite farms.

But I'm guessing the issue is processing -- bacon requires salting and smoking, and ham usually has steps to it as well. If those factories can't be made worker-safe then nothing gets brined & smoked -- no bacon :(
You need some estimates if you need to sync the efforts of two or more teams. For single teams with single deliverable there might be a necessity to set a date, or might not.

But if there is no external reason to push for a date then setting an arbitrary internal date when it provides no additional value is just silly.
In house advertising is essentially non existent. Any newspaper would have in house ads printed next to the article. All have given up their autonomy to 3rd party vendors. You wouldn't be able to block in house advertising, but you sure can block all 3rd party skeezy advertising that want nothing but analytics. That largely do nothing better than an ad printed next to an article.
I'd love to read about this. Anyone have a link?

You can stay in your house until the treatments get better, which is also a smart thing for vulnerable people to do.

Why not let other people off lockdown if they wish as long as the hospitals are not overflowed? A lot of people face a negligable risk from this.

What difference would it be to you? And look at the cost to them, tens of millions of people's livelihoods thrown up in the air.

Having said the above, I do see the value of lockdowns that prevented hospitals from being overwhelmed. That is different. But it looks to me like we can look at moving past that threat. What do we do next?
Parent didn't say "used" at all.
Your example of farms is rather poorly put. Modern farms (thinking of corn and wheat and other staple crops) cover hundreds of acres and are managed by 4-5 people. Farms of this size couldn't exist in the past because they required too large of a workforce.

And, given the current state of automation, most of the work to maintain those farms is highly automated; the operators are mostly monitoring screens from non-integrated screens and acting as a simple PID controller.

Where did all of those thousands of previously employed farm hands go? Into the factories. But as they're pushed out of the factories, where do they go next?
Telecoms want to take the place of WiFi. If you follow the non-technical 5G articles, there is a lot of promotion of how 5G _will_ replace WiFi.

Within the last year, we denied Verizon's 5G proposal. They want to run fiber and wireless backhaul to provide indoor access for some buildings. It's also important to watch which door these proposals come through. It's a tell as to what their actual agenda is.
Agreed that the responsibility was 100% on SWL to build consensus among the community and decision makers in Waterfront Toronto and Toronto's government entities. I'm just saying that this became a lot tougher due to the change in public opinion on big tech.

Although I love emacs and use it every day, I'd say the JVM is at least light years ahead. I've been using it in various settings for the past 15 years and although I didn't need to push it far away, what it does is nothing short of impressive. In my use cases (business processing), it's performance are really good, the GC works fine, the profiler is really helpful, it is super predictable.

But nothing beats the fun of writing a few functions to improve my beloved editor. If it was Java I just would not do it...
To get really pendantic, OP never said "UBI" anywhere in the post, they said "basic income", which is very different. UBI is the dream of many advocates of BI but a BI for instance could be given only to some and not others.

Criticizing the post about a specific vision of UBI strikes me as overly combative (and putting words in OP's mouth).

Analytics is the unit testing of the marketing world, but for some reason it's become the main event.

As an aside, I am really, really surprised and happy to see a plain-text website available, if you decline cookies. That's a neat approach.

I think you would? You'd just have to write rules that are specific to each publisher instead of each advertising network.
Conspicuous consumption. The price is the point. It’s a signaling thing. In the case of something like sneakers with a big brand logo on them, it’s likely someone “low” trying to signal to their peers that they’ve made it (whether they have or not). See: Fussell’s Class, or The Official Preppy Handbook for signaling rules specific to the upper-middle and upper classes (very expensive sneakers with swooshes: big no. Somewhat expensive tennis shoes with wear patterns from serving: yes)
> Already history has in a sense ceased to exist, ie. there is no such thing as a history of our own times which could be universally accepted, and the exact sciences are endangered as soon as military necessity ceases to keep people up to the mark. Hitler can say that the Jews started the war, and if he survives that will become official history. He can’t say that two and two are five, because for the purposes of, say, ballistics they have to make four. But if the sort of world that I am afraid of arrives, a world of two or three great superstates which are unable to conquer one another, two and two could become five if the fuhrer wished it. That, so far as I can see, is the direction in which we are actually moving, though, of course, the process is reversible.

A major one I'm thinking of is BigQuery, also of course all the various db/queue solutions outside of your typical S3 clone as you mentioned. That would make sense viewing them as platforms though

The setting of the cookie (the HTTP protocol) is not responsible for hurting anyone. People are, through negligence.

I would have accepted a case wherein a user in the arctic, with limited bandwidth, was hurt due to the cookie data interfering with the communication. Hand waving about a series of human failings being connected to a technology is not compelling.

I guess it's the same argument as the "gun" isn't responsible for gun violence, excepting cookies aren't even designed to reveal information. Guns are definitely designed (in part) be used against people.
> GeckoView exposes a wide range of privacy

that's is a fallacy and you know it!

There are ZERO settings exposed to the end user.

Those settings are exposed to the App embedding geckoviewer. In other words, the privacy settings are in the hands of the actor who benefit from Advertising by tracking the user!

> GeckoView also exposes a WebExtension API

again to the app.
> Trump could order a nation wide shutdown if he wanted to.

People are getting lost in the weeds about whether or who has authority to do what. I think that's less important.

What matters more is cooperation between Federal, State and local.

Instead of having those ENDLESS insane ad-libbed monologues at the "daily briefing", a true leader would have been too busy working non-stop with state, key city officials, disease experts, and those who can handle logistics. He could have left the daily briefing to competent spokespeople (I know that's laughable, but imagine any other administration).

Together with W3C's draft Decentralized Identifiers (DID: https://www.w3.org/TR/did-core/), it could provide a decentralized alternative.

Not sure what is the best way to verify Twitter/Github account though. This has to be managed by users themselves. E.g. one user posts a proof in the Twitter account, the other user verifies the proof by checking the proof against the public key posted in the database.

> SCSs should ideally not communicate with each other

> SCSs should favor integration at the UI layer.

Not sure how to make sense of this... so you have components that are not allowed to talk to each other and are all integrated through a UI layer.

For systems that don't need to communicate between each other I'll claim is not where we're having troubles managing complexity.

You may start of thinking you're build a SCS and then what happens when a requirement arrives needing two SCS to communicate? I guess it's some sort of monolith? Maybe reach for your enterprise integration patterns to help make stitching these easier.

If you have two independent services, why would you even think to build them as a monolith? Probably not a good idea to build your corp wiki software in the same monolith as your payroll system.

One benefit I see from this specification is that it helps frame the conversation around a service architecture allowin g you to draw boundaries around services that define this concept of a SCS.
