Section 230 does not say “any form of moderation or editorialization makes them liable.” In fact, this what §230(c)(1) says:

> No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider.

Enforcing section 230 would actually mean that Twitter is not liable for what Trump posts. Which is already the case. If Trump were to advocate violence, Twitter would not be liable.
Yes.[1] Section 230 is not a new law, but this order is directing his Administration how they are to interpret certain provisions of it going forward with some actions they are to take. It’s important to remember that an Executive Order is not law by decree, it is an official government communication directing the government how to act under the law, as is the President’s prerogative. No matter how you come down on the issue of how social media companies interpret Section 230, a new EO is effectively a new interpretation either narrowing, expanding or changing the scope under which enforcement action is to be taken by the government.

As an Android dev, I disregarded any company hiring that was not transitioning to Kotlin. It was a major red flag if the project was relatively new. My personal project on spring boot is completely powered by Kotlin and I fully expect KotlinJS to be ready for production in a year or so for full stack development.

Writing in Kotlin really is a nicer experience and with near full access to all the legacy java libraries I would never want to switch back even with the small improvements java has made to be more like Kotlin. I highly suspect as the number of java devs that are exposed to Kotlin increases the number of devs happy to write in Java over Kotlin (or Scala) will decrease. Android going Kotlin first was in part justified by giving the decision makers a short period of a week or two to get adjusted away from java and see how they felt about the language in comparison
It sounds to me like you had the emulator setup incorrectly TBH. It's bad but not that bad. Make sure you're using an x86 image, have hardware emulation enabled, have the virtualization drivers installed, etc etc.

Except Linus uses MicroEMACS, not vim.
I only see one reply remotely regarding Activites and Fragments and it's just asking what problems you had. It should be pretty obvious to anyone that's tinkered with Android that the whole battle between which to choose is ridiculous.

That said - I'd highly recommend checking out the Navigation components that are a part of Jetpack. They make standard navigation patterns, including deep linking, a complete breeze.
Here's a simple idea for the Chromium team:
Bundle the top 100-200 Google web fonts (in .woff2 format) with Chromium (less than 20-30MBs) and boom, you just accelerated the entire internet.
> The Deno CLI works like a browser, but for code. You import a URL in the code and Deno will go and fetch that code and cache it locally, just like a browser. Also, like a browser, your code runs in a sandbox, which has zero trust of the code you are running, irrespective of the source.

Guessing it uses containerization or virtualization, hopefully with no gaps in security.
It's idiomatic in rust not to chase some people's ideas about what idiomatic rust is, especially if that ideas include thinks like which libraries you use for what.

If worked with rust (in a company) for over two years using rust for large code based is substainable.

Sure at async fn's majorly changed for to do async IO,
but that's basically it.

Beside the async IO story other changes where often minor and fast to fix even without cargo fix.

Also for a large code based there is zero reason to pedantically follow any new rust feature. It's actually idiomatic rust to not touch working/complete code just for some stile updates. And if you touch it anyway adding them cost you normally less than a minute. (Except async fn.)
Thanks :-)
I think my success is about equal to my work. It is hard to work on something when you're unsure if it will succeed.
You do realize you are talking to a person running Qubes?
The issue is that it's impossible to run a viable user generated site without some moderation. The difference between 4chan & 8chan is some level of moderation (in addition to removing illegal content).

Although less extreme, conspiracy theories and fake news are bad PR for social media platforms & thus impact their bottom line. Additionally, many platforms currently are under pressure from investors and ad-networks to maintain certain standards.
Can you please point out where it forces Twitter to do anything?

I think you may have gotten off on the wrong exit. One was a religious freedom case. The other is ordering the government to investigate Twitter for violating Section 203. Two..totally different things. The Executive Order can't force Twitter to do anything.
Interesting, but doubtful more than a parlour trick, until further analysis shows work.

A laser interferometer, or perhaps a puddle of mercury could reveal what's virbrating and why.

The video can't really prove anything on its own, since statistically, we have no way to intuit your character, potential motivation or reputation (hn karma lol). It's too easy to David Blaine something like this, but if 1000 other people quickly discover and replicate the problem, and converge on a pattern, then you get extra credit for discovery.

How do we know it's not environmental? The heavy mass and smoothness of the metal/glass phone against the friction profile of the un-dust-jacketed book cover is going to behave differently than plastic credit cards which are rougher than glass, and have a mas of only a few grams.

It could be infrasound from a nearby subwoofer, an unlevel plane by microns, capacitor whine within the phone, the phone's haptic motor on the fritz, anything.

Cute trick. Instructions unclear.

Yes but that's why drafts are drafts.
When all you have is search, you may run into the difficulty of actively organizing and structuring notes and clippings into a hierarchy, clusters, or mind map. Also the search support varies from "exact match" to "fuzzy match" to "synonym search".

For example, Evernote supports Notebooks but they only create one level of hierarchy. Often the use of "tags" is then recommended to label notes with context, hierarchy, and categories.
Could share what regulation you’re talking about? I’m sorry I don’t follow your position when it comes to regulating social media and what regulations are needed. If we use the oil industry as an example I think it’s clear that environmental regulations are needed to preserve ecological environments. What is the end goal to regulating tech giants?
Ah yeah, so it's Twitter's choice if they lose 230 protection or not. Keeping doing this lose it (and they become liable and start censoring everything including Trump), or don't do anything, let humanity drain into a crap hole but keep making $$
YES! For some reason everyone that is howling at Trump seem to have missed that it would censor Trump as well!
Lots of phones and tablets do this. This isn't a new phenomenon by any means. It's annoying but it isn't controversial or anything. You want a smooth sleek phone or tablet, this is one part of the price you pay for that.
I'm making an argument that Executive Order abuse is bad, but for whatever reason we're only worried about it now. When the guy in charge isn't the usual kind of ... uh ... President. If you want me to say it George W. Bush's EO abuses were also bad.
It’s not Rust’s fault. C is irreplaceable. Even C++, “a better C,” couldn’t. Nothing can.
Well, you can speed it up slightly by using the iterator directly instead of forcing the whole generator into a list.

But on the other hand, you can make it WAY faster by doing it with bit manipulation instead like you're writing C:

hard to really say, most of the stuff will be bitrotted.

But, he networked VERY hard.
Another factor may be that older people have seen so much nonsense that they've become more skeptical of the "official" narrative. I know this has happened with me. I don't go in for conspiracy theories but I can see how similarly disillusioned people with less developed critical thinking skills could be tempted by them.
The only Power based supercomputers I can think of are all from IBM. Does any other vendor use them?

Power CPUs tend to power either iSeries (latest iteration of AS/400 - System38 etc) systems or AIX based. The large AIX systems use lots of CPUs, cores and typically vPars - but I wouldn't call them supercomputers. Disk I/O is generally FC attached SAN, i.e. performance is achieved through off-loading. A typical SAN array contains gigabytes of caching memory, CPUs on each disk drive with yet more RAM and multiple optical FC links to each node.
I don't. I wasn't clear. EO abuses have been ongoing for at least 150 years, like you said. I'm merely pointing out that we're now only worried about it because Trump is bad and thus now EOs are bad.
I think it's mostly seen as valid by people who get all their economic advice from places with an agenda set by the richest 1% of the population? Funny how that works out.
The U.S. Has Forgotten How to Do Infrastructure
So you're suggesting I embrace the tech?

I think I'll do this. I don't feel like I can reasonably protect myself from data-snooping companies, whether I use their products or not.
Also, just because it's popular doesn't mean that people actually prefer that lifestyle.

It reminds me of the opening scene in Office Space where a white man listens to rap during traffic on his way to a typical 9-to-5.

This isn't quite right. 230 is the thing that allows HN to moderate comments and submissions without immediately becoming legally responsible for every dumb thing we say.

Not that it matters. Nobody seems to believe the administration can actually do this. And Twitter (or your personal forum) can continue to boot trolls, Nazis, or heads of state posting targeted harassment at widows, and do so in good faith all day long.

What really happened is that the hard, valid questions about how much power social media companies have, how they should ensure free speech without enabling the worst elements of society, how appeals on moderation should work etc, just got sucked so deep into the screaming partisan meat grinder that there is now no chance of making any progress on them.
I think the hypothetical opposite would be interesting: What if Twitter was run by Peter Theil, and they fact checked Joe Biden. I think we'd see absolutely uproar by the democrats. The left believes twitter is on their side, and how that came to be is much more interesting.
Congrats, this looks awesome!

The key - for us - is to be not just a routing layer, but a huge value add in addition to being a routing layer.

We provide workflow management, decisioning, analytics, etc and those are things that all clients need. Underlying providers of various things know they will need to be integrated into something like that (whether homegrown or built by a vendor), so being part of an ecosystem like ours that ensures success is critical. Homegrown implementations of the same vendors vs. using those vendors in Alloy stops less fraud, causes more manual work, is more opaque, approves fewer good customers, takes longer to get live with, etc.

Importantly, we don't pitch either side (vendors or our clients) on using Alloy to compare vendors - rather to make the most of them (now and as their needs change). It's not just

"I can switch this at any point"

it's

"I will have a best in class system now and the peace of mind that I will have a best in class system tomorrow as my needs change, without needing to engage in 5 enterprise sales cycles to get there"
Ray's Rum Punch
Heh, yup, it's part of the hackiness of it all. "with do(MyMonadClass) as my_variable: <some code>" equates to haskell's "myVariable = do <some code>". I can't remember why the MyMonadClass part was necessary. Maybe for the mreturn.
I'm also very against it, but I'm not convinced they don't already have whatever data they'd gain from using the assistant.
If Twitter was run by Peter Theil and did this to Bernie Sanders, or Joe Binden, the left would have a collective meltdown. Trump has a valid point: Twitter has never done this before, why are they starting now?
Yes I understand pytorch quite well - I was merely confused because I consider the C++ library to still be pytorch.

I don't see the advantage of this setup over just loading a torchscript model in C++ or any other static language. A full set of bindings seems unnecessary unless you need to train in nim.
I take it that for security purposes to prevent theft, they probably used proprietary charging devices and some version of DRM to prevent opening the things up and self-servicing them if stolen.
one million percent true.

Not at all. In 1980 email had a tiny market share but really strong usage by those who had accounts.

True story, DEC included a free mail program with VMS because some developer wrote it. And they were baffled when companies started ordering VAXes mainly to use for email.

Web was similar in 1993. Very few users, yet folks like Adam Curry left his job as a famous “VJ” at MTV to start a website, buying the unused domain mtv.com for the purpose (you can guess how that turned out). I mention this because he was a total norm who got enamored with the web when almost nobody used it.

And Bitcoin, well...

For actual numbers, here’s a graph of computer users since 1980:

The comments, anecdotes, and historical context he gives the papers are by themselves a great read, especially if you're even somewhat familiar with the results. The comments on #12, which introduces the Bakery Algorithm [1] are a great example of this.

I think this is a great point. A routing layer on top of a deeply feature rich set of underlying providers is probably not a good idea. I think that's why API Gateways are kind of "meh"

I think routing layers need to be super thoughtful about this. How will I architect my system to ensure this isn't the case? Or doesn't matter? Or just doesn't happen?

Hell, even if they had straight up invented backlinks I wouldn't be willing to deal with an application that costs $15 per month and gives me absolutely no control over my data. The possibility that an outage could cause me to lose work alone prevents me from ever giving it a shot.

And the idea that even though the copycats deliver to me the superior product, I should still give what amounts to charity to Roam because they designed a nice interface just strikes me as absurd. I don't see the point in being overly concerned about supporting new research since we already have a mechanism for that: patents. If Roam truly believes their work is revolutionary, they should have just applied for a patent.
I don't understand this point. This is not thoughtful legislation being debated. This is one guy writing some executive order out of spite, which will soon be reversed by the.courts

It’s unconstitutional because the president can’t decide to change a law. Only the legislature can.

Unfortunately CDA is written in a way that broadly allows tech companies to censor any content that doesn’t fit their commercial or political narratives. It’s a poison pill to Internet discourse at the endpoint we’ve reached where three or four companies control that vast majority of online speech.

In a sense, the president is declaring Twitter and Facebook to be “public utilities,” an admission of defeat for the free market ideals that we pretend this country champions.

Only a change to the law or reimagining of the Internet can fix this. I don’t share your pessimism that this is impossible. I think decentralized/P2P platforms do have a place and a chance to unseat tech incumbents. Remember what happened to Yahoo and AOL? I just don’t think that our current set of tech companies are immune from the same sort of abandonment and irrelevance. A moment is coming where everything changes.

> So people can post all the "facts" they want to but the crux of the matter is that most restaurants are very risk averse and donating food is a risk.

Very. I resorted to creating a cycle count in the walk in after every shift (off the clock) and giving it away pre-packaged 'meal prep' to employees, as most were just college kids, as so much high quality Salmon, chicken breast and other proteins that otherwise just ended up wasted.

Its ironic because this restaurant got a James Beard Award for sustainability and low waste practices.

In other places I just made family meal with the 'scraps' leftover for BOH/FOH family meals as we normally got off at ~2am and choices for food sucked. Its just something I had adapted to after my apprenticeship in Biodynamic Ag, and wished I saw more of it in the Industry.

I'm not sure what to make of the bike thing, as the Lime scooters I rode were already pretty beat up and I used them not long after the deployed. I can't imagine what it must of have been for these bikes, the Google bikes around the Boulder campus look decent from afar (they're non EV, I think), but I never rode one so can't speak to its life-time.

Waste in all transportation looks like this, I wish I could show the amount of recall parts I threw out on a daily basis at BMW but I signed an NDA. Its often cheaper to just discard the parts as-is at a minor loss than it is to pay for a much bigger loss for shipping back to a factory and then pay staff to sort through it and only to do the same at their local facility.

I'm talking about pallet loads of differentials, driveshafts, and engine blocks as well as crate loads of ECUs etc... Although to be fair we did sell those for metal for their junk PM prices if/when I had down time.

I actually re-learned how to solder, barely only ok at it now, because I was taking wiring harnesses and LED taillights home and tearing them apart and putting them back together.

This is how a lot of VWs sat for a little over 2 years after the buyback [1]. Some made it back into the market, many didn't and I was just glad I wasn't in the Industry by then as it made me physically ill to see the waste a SOFTWARE issue ended up costing in an Environmental level.

If it was WebMIDI that actually transmitted -MIDI streams- (instead of just shoving them, with limited options, at some flaccid GM soundfile) that'd be really cool. Then you could choose your own MIDI playback engine (application, external hardware, ... ).

In an environment that interprets -all- the codes, MIDI's almost unlimited. Hollywood's used it for a long time. It's very undemanding so people could -certainly- mix their music on the (right) browser. And, if people could add javascript routines to it? Ay-yay.
