Brief summary so you avoid wasting your time on this drivel like I just did.

Two academics married together when they were young. They bitterly separated some years later. She had a notable career, he did not. Now they are dead.

He wrote a book on a vacuous subject while they were together. She at least edited it. Another academic claims she actually wrote it. He has no proof but he dislikes the guy. Also, the book is good while the guy did nothing interesting thereafter. Except of course he did write another book which is at least as famous after they split but it doesn't count. Because.

By the way, there is one inconsequential paragraph in the whole book which is improperly attributed. There is a reference to the original author but it's only on a quotation while the paragraph is lifted with slight alterations. Squinting hard enough you might call it plagiarism. Actually she has been accused of plagiarism for an entirely different work decades later. Does it mean something ? Probably not but the article writer is paid by word.

You're welcome.
I don't really know. I assumed it was auto-generated since it has always been bad.

But my point was more that I didn't want localized video titles and I should just get the original one since the video is in that original language anyway.
I think it's really hard to gather data for this, because aside from a few big projects, most sponsoring and stuff is happening outside of any traceable area, i.e. private people sponsoring other private people for some small software.

I think the point is: the contributions of some companies to few, very large projects are about the same as the thousands of 1-dollar-contributions private people do to the remaining 99.9% of open source software.

I would prefer command-line programs, actually.
This resonates with me as I have a similar thoughts on consciousness. The way I try to express my thoughts on this is to imagine that consciousness is a fabric that permeates the entire universe, but there exist these kind of extremely dense pockets of consciousness (ie, within us and our brains) where the fabric is tightly bound. Every kind of system that exists within the universe naturally lends itself to being conscious. The more complex the system the greater the density of consciousness it yields. Perhaps we cannot perceive consciousness in most (simpler) systems because it is minuscule compared to the density of consciousness within our brains, although we do tend to get these spooky kinds of insights and intuitions into the higher-order consciousness that emerges from many brains combined, such as collective consciousness, gaia, mass hysteria, etc.
For US citizens, you have to provide social security number. Stripe may have some minimum requirement to generate a 1099 and report to the IRS, but that number is definitely less than $600 ($50/mo)
Agreed. And I think it's even harder than that. When it comes to studying or thinking about consciousness - there is no way tor me to prove that any other person in the room is conscious except for myself. Given this, how can we even begin to talk about "AI consciousness" or in this case electrons being conscious.

For sensible date and time formats in English, you can use en_GB. I don't think there's any standard English locale with comma as the decimal separator, although my Android phone and Ubuntu installation offer en_DK for some reason.

Linux's locale allows more granular settings, but that's not possible over HTTP.
Just a note on the word "nationalist" re: Taiwan. It's confusing to most, but in Taiwan, "nationalist" is the pro-China faction, due to historical association of that term with the KMT.

"Green," pro-independence, or "TI" (Taiwan Independence) would be the less confusing term for the side you think might lose with this development.

The TI side has been winning bigly in the past year thanks to Xi Jinping and Carrie Lam's treatment of Hong Kong, and to China's and WHO's lack of transparency in the early days of COVID-19.
You wouldn't get fined but I can't imagine Tinder dates being seen favorably during a pandemic, even in Sweden.

On another note I'm genuinely curious to see what the conclusion will be regarding Sweden's approach. I'm still seeing polar opposite opinions on it every week.
Absolutely! Clean classic desktop apps (still common on KDE and Mac) provide the best UX so far - they are easy (intuitive) to use, they look tidy and they work fast. I choose such whenever it's available.
This actually feels like an intentional move by Google to NOT get split up. Don’t worry government, we got your back! We’ll ban things that aren’t approved by you!
Not wrecked, they just relocated. They seem quite happy over in sub-Saharan Africa.
I like breathing, so no.

My godfather spoke out against them a few years ago when told to preside over a secret court. They destroyed him through the press. Cameron went on national TV to condemn him for being a paedophile apologist, when he’s absolutely no such thing, and the court transcripts from the supposed incident clearly show that the remarks ascribed to him were actually made by a police constable. His wife committed suicide in the aftermath, and his children fled the country as they were being threatened by the public and hounded by the gutter press. He is a shadow of the man he was.

So no. I won’t name names.
I would disagree in saying it's like Google banning YouTube as YouTube both hosts the actual data as well as filters the data that gets put onto the platform.
Haha people gotta pay bills too especially when you are living in a High CoL area
I really appreciate the integrity, and am on my way over to Patreon.

Thank you.
If they discourage people from using something, they should tell people what is the alternative.

I've been user of Signal for years, but with recent changes especially with screen nagging me and everyone else to enter PIN I'm going back to Whatsapp, which was my secondary messenger, but which has most contacts anyway.

What are the other options - Messenger, Telegram, Skype or whatever Google kills this year, which are all not even E2E encrypted by default (let alone colecting metadata)? Anything else has zero users and it's not user friendly.

It's not like there is user friendly completely safe service, after all even Signal now collects and stores your contacts in cloud after forcing you to create PIN nobody asked for, while they still keep asking for phone number and nag you with other prompts instead of adding basic features like pin conversation to top.
To some extent they already are. Whether it’s the EUs “Right to be Forgotten” or US DMCA takedown notices, Google are responsible for removing listings.

To be clear: I also don’t agree with the podcast takedown.
I'm pretty sure POTUS doesn't approve google. Please ban yourself.
It’s the ultimate slacktivism. Many people are used to staying home and doing nothing all day, but now the situation has changed and suddenly their lifestyle is a virtue, they can feel like heroes while people who want to work can be called irresponsible. It’s the same people who think they can help poor people by clicking ‘Like’ on a Facebook post.

Things are going to turn around again of course. Sooner or later reality is going to hit when the handouts stop and the food supply dries up. Humanity isn’t going to survive by doing nothing and the people who put in the work and take the risks now have to be incentivized or they may quit working as well.
This seems well within Google's (especially) ability to fix.

They seem to rely on similar settings for knowing whether to bring up a "This page is in Polish. Do you want to translate it?" popup.
Banning WhatsApp actually accomplishes that by creating demand for these alternatives.
> gives a good first impression since people assume I'm at least competent enough to provide basic care to a child.

This made me laugh. Impostor syndrome much?
I see your intent is an analogy but that’s exactly what they did in Jan-Mar timeframe. They suspended people for acknowledging the virus’ existence. Just CCP style.
But a good proportion of the best and hardest working people in the world are international students in the US.

Can open source projects help you become consultant. I have seen many people choosing that path they might be contributing to opensource and providing services to the companies based on their skills
There is worse: websites that redirect you to the homepage in your detected language, rather than the same page in "your" language if it exists, or the original if not.

I often have this problem with web shops with my wife, who has a different mother tongue: she sends me a link to eg. a piece of furniture she likes, and all I can see is the homepage of the bloody shop, with no clear way to just say "show me the damn page I asked for".

Another fun experience was a short text on an airline website (cannot remember which one) which ended being in 3 different languages, sometimes switching in the middle of a paragraph, depending on whether it was using the language of my location, my browser or my OS. At least that was fun.
I too have a day job and develop open software as a hobby. I don't think that I could ever make as much money out of it like my real job, because I don't have any popular projects out there. And... To be honest.. I don't really want to make my hobby a business.
> Plans that according to Elon Musk are fascism, a man who operates factories in the US and China and decided the US is the one that has a fascist government.

He is also a man that was in mid-March, convinced, and was shouting at anyone who would listen, that cases in the US would somehow drop to essentially zero in April.

I'm not sure that his primary motivation is laying out logical, well-thought-out, sensible arguments about the situation. I do think that his primary motivation may have something to do with keeping his factories running, and that he will say whatever it takes to get to that point.
That’s an interesting example because YouTube are also removing COVID-19 content from some disreputable sources.

To be clear: I’m not defending Google, I also don’t agree with the podcast takedown.
People here (UK) use these apps even though they're more expensive than when the restaurant handles the delivery. I never paid for a delivery in my life before Deliveroo/UE, but the user experience is so much better with them that it's hard not to.

For example, it's a little bit confusing how to find my place, so something as simple as not having to explain it every time I call up (and inevitably have it transcribed incorrectly) makes a huge difference in friction.
It's social norms and perceived value (which are interrelated). From sampling music to quoting literature - there is case precedent and fair use.

Software is no different. When Compaq reverse-engineered the IBM PC BIOS, the standards were incredibly high. If I violate a GPL license or steal some copywritten Unity code for my game - I'm probably pretty safe. Unless, of course, a bunch of people agree that my software is valuable. I could be in big trouble if that's the case, even if I give it away for free (as in beer) and never make a cent off it.
I notice noone's mentioned Tidelift. Why is that?
Cambridge Analytica showed there is a huge private market for data. Why should any government put its connections into a private corporation?

Just because some criminals or state actors can obtain that information illegally does not mean we should provide that data willingly and legally.

As a side note, I find it strange that you are for stronger data protection and at the same time think it is "silly" to avoid data collection companies such as WhatsApp.
I'm in the exact same situation, well, except for that time when for some unfathomable reason Google insisted, for weeks, to deliver what I believe is Lithuanian to my home browser.

Before the great Firefox extension purge I was sending out different language preference headers depending on domain. Unfortunately, this trick was already breaking down as more and more German companies redirect from their .de to their .com to show off ambition, leaving me with a bad English translation of the massive German due to headers.

What I'd love to see would be a server side distinction between primary and secondary languages, but of course companies would lie their asses off for uncountable reasons bad and worse.

The threshold for a 1099-MISC is $600. Plenty of non-shady organizations won't file extra paperwork.

Another 1099 example: For most states Stripe won't issue you a 1099-K if you don't meet both $20K volume and >200 charges. Is Stripe shady?
If you want kids and you have kids it certainly looks like you are striving for happiness.
Yeah podcast app's rarely host the content themselves (though some do mirror the files to their own CDN's and Spotify have recently started doing exclusive podcasts).

It was more that Podcast app's come with a curated list of podcasts and a search feature backed into the application then the actual hosting of the content.

I think that you might be using the term "consciousness" in a different way from how the article uses it. Do you not have subjective experience?
You don't have subjective experience?
> to remove references to COVID-19 and keywords related to COVID-19 from the app

Wait. Is this from the app apk or from dynamic content displayed on the app?

If it's the former, it's fair enough, if it's from the latter it's just another SNAFU by Google.
Your parent post might have been changed, but it currently says 'proxying', not 'phishing'.
The alternative is that current metaphors are wrong and new metaphors are needed.
It shd allow that you can choose. Most media content is better in the English original then in some dubbed translates version. The UI doesnt matter what language (apart from understandable by then reader)
A patient is not consulting an expert. A medical student is. Who would be very keen to hear some war stories.
Google has an explicit notice up on YouTube Studio, at least, saying that they'll remove content that might not violate copyright because they are cutting back on human review. (It doesn't seem to occur to them that they could err on the side of not assuming copyright, though.) I'm sure this is part of the same trend.
Excellent tool. Can this analyse the result from kustomize files rather than actual k8s YAML?
This made me wonder how long since I had last logged into HN.

About that long, though I had commented before that.
Podcast apps commonly host indexes for the same reason Google or Bing or another search engine ships with most browsers. Users don’t know, and don’t care, about URLs, especially RSS feed URLs. They (we) just want to type in something and tap on the thing they wanted, instant gratification. Most apps generally don’t spider or find their own content, instead they re-index public indexes, the most common of which is Apple’s Podcasts directory formerly from iTunes. As pointed out, Google also has a directory. It’s a convenience for listeners to more easily find shows.

I say this because I remember the days before Apple’s Podcast directory when it was often easier to Google and listen in your browser or copy it on to a music player via drag and drop than it was to remember to launch an app that would do the downloading for you. (Partly because you still had to remember to connect and/or sync the player, and worry about disk space etc.) Nowadays, subscribing and listening via phone is so easy that I probably download 100x the shows I used to and barely listen to 5%. These days I use the apps as sources of possible content to listen to, but I would be really annoyed if some of the content disappeared with no warning, particularly if it was one daily/weekly episode that covered COVID.
Stuff like Bloomberg, Thomson-Reuters, etc is valuable to a specific type of professional and will always have a niche audience. That isn't really what the discussion is about.

Reporting on corruption and injustice is critical to a society, but doesn't have any monetary value. The way I see it, we already have a way we choose to fund that kind of thing: non-profits/NGOs. Some media outlets (Vox, The Guardian) are already turning to just asking for money in this way, and over time journalism might become more formalised as something funded by the public for civic ends, not as a commercial product. To that end it should be unbundled from stuff like sports coverage and celebrity gossip - which might really end up disappearing as a viable career and be done exclusively by amateurs.

I'm one of the developers working on Trustroots.

We're working on references :) I merged this PR yesterday https://github.com/Trustroots/trustroots/pull/1413, there is a bit more to work out for displaying them...

There is also a meetup feature already (see https://ideas.trustroots.org/2017/08/21/meeting-people-now-o...), it's a bit primitive right now, but it was a first iteration, and we've been discussing some next steps recently.

We are also open source! https://github.com/trustroots/ (with a node + react stack)

Forgive me if im being dense, but if that human replica still responds to stimulus in some way, and has basic wants and needs, then surely it is still conscious, just lower down on our human scale?
This is a fantastic resource. I've long lamented the difficulty of finding textbooks. Since colleges buy them back every semester to control demand, it's actually hard to find something that should be cheap and common. It's tragic.

Good to see they're at least here online, though it's also shameful that I didn't find this on Google when I searched for it a year or so ago. Tried to buy a calculus textbook to teach a friend - only overpriced latest editions by and large were available.
Looking around at other living creatures it looks as if consciousness is a gradient. Several factors could move you up and down the gradient (to simplify), and I'd imagine that the speed of data transmission would be one of those. So as far as the thought experiment goes, I'd imagine the pen and paper method of transmission would be slow enough to knock the "brain" off the consciousness scale completely.
Also love those Chinese e-commerce websites that use automated translations based on location for every text on their website, even on product names...

I really wish cloud providers would offer a managed Docker Swarm service - it's so much simpler than k8s, but not having to manage the underlying machines would be great.

I might be remembering wrongly, but I think Azure actually used to offer multiple managed orchestration platforms, including DCOS and Swarm, before they went all-in on k8s.

Yes Google wants to do this via a Podcast app. The lengths people here go to to rationalize their bias is shocking. Have fun in your bubble.
This article isn't so much about free-ing, but about unmapping memory. It could well be that you have an allocator that decides not to un-map free-ed memory so that it can quickly be re-used later.

That said, as per https://linux.die.net/man/3/malloc (and the article) the default implementation of free will (in some cases) unmap memory.

It is this un-mapping of memory that causes other threads to be affected. Because those threads should get a seg-fault after the unmapping if they try to access that memory.
Licenses do not codify obligations, they codify legal requirements. Getting someone to replace you if like holding the door open after yourself: no law will force you to do this, but people will still say it’s polite for you to do so.
I know bookmarklets basics. What I wanted to know is which API calls you used inside of the < 2000 character bookmarklet to achieve the functionality you described. I also believed that the bookmarklets are limited to the security context of the web page and I don't understand how you did all that, if I understood you correctly you are generating zip out of the images from the web page using only the bookmarklet?

Do you, or do you do something much simpler?
Already the fact that you are talking to a psychologist is worth a lot to insurances and job candidate assessment platforms. Or to a midwife. Pregnant women are worth a lot in the adtech industry because especially if it's their first baby, they are about to buy lots of things they haven't bought before. Classical example is diapers.

This is from the metadata alone.

But Whatsapp goes further: it also encourages Google Cloud backups. Quite many people enable it. That way, the content becomes accessible to Google.

Other apps like Threema don't have the option of online backups of message content. You can back up some stuff online, but it's only stuff like your list of contacts, stuff that for Whatsapp already resides on the servers. For the content, you must use offline backups.
So it’s like Google banning a Bing, DDG, or (...) Google search app app for Indexing sites that do not follow approved guidelines.

OP’s point stands without modification.
Exactly. It is certainly possible to make TLB coherent: IIRC IBM mainframe architecture has coherent TLBs. But probably has a non trivial cost to implement and and hasn't been done yet for most common architectures. I wouldn't be surprised if it became a thing at some point i t the near future though, as it can be a win for high core count CPUs.
> podcasts are arguably more popular than they’ve ever been (this period of time with the coronavirus possibly excepted).

There's been a worrying trend of some podcasts shifting to a "get our app" mode of delivery. I've been boycotting each one, and been encouraging the podcasts I donate to to explicitly keep the RSS delivery.
