Sure everyone will talk about art and food and all of that but culture in my mind comes from something deeper. I live in Brooklyn where I can walk outside and meet people from every corner of the world without leaving my block. The philosophical perspectives that people come from hits you with every interaction you have. The longer you live around it the more you learn about their back stories and why these different groups of people carry themselves differently than you might or dress differently, work differently, eat differently, make love differently and so on. Often times these interactions are small but still impacting, other times they are intense and moving like hearing first hand explanations what it was like to live through atrocities from around the world and what it takes to escape but they all hold meaning and a life lived only surrounded by large groups of the same often leads to everyone eating the same things, enjoying the same art and music and missing out on, or even understanding the things outside of your own bubble. Sure you don't need to fit the mold of the place you live but in a place overflowing with influences it is clear that there is always more to soak. So as a working class joe I can still find myself experiencing things that I would have never sought out myself simply by walking out my front door and having a conversation with a neighbor.

Well that's because you're locked-in :). If you're already locked in, you're screwed and have to work your way out or live with it and the consequences that come either now or later.

Why the agenda to (further) censor Facebook and similar?
That’s just it though, I disagree that governments will have “full control” in that situation, they can only lose control as this technology becomes adopted.

They gain nothing while taking on a private partner, one that has an abhorrent history of privacy abuse. It’s so hard to see the benefit for anyone other than Facebook in this

RCE in Portainer with Golang Request Splitting
Every platform ultimately makes choices in how users engage with it, whether that goal is to drive up engagement, ad revenues or whatever metric is relevant to them. My general read is that Facebook tries to message that they're "neutral" arbiters and passive observers of whatever happens on their platform. But they aren't, certainly not in effect, and possibly in intent either. To preserve existing algorithms is not by definition fair and neutral!

And in this instance, choosing not to respond to what its internal researchers found is, ultimately, a choice they've made. In theory, it's on us as users and consumers to vote with our attention and time spent. But given the society-wide effects of a platform that a large chunk of humanity uses, it's not clear to me that these are merely private choices; these private choices by FB executives affect the commonweal.

Yeah, I used 'common carrier' in reference to when Ma Bell was a monopoly and wasn't allowed to just not do business with people.

We don't have jurisprudence saying so for websites, because this is new, but it could be argued that a number of websites have reached a sort of monopoly status. Facebook is probably closest, but Twitter and Wikipedia both occupy unique places in society to the point where it's not, just, "go start your own website".

As far as business freedom, remember the gay wedding cake guy? Where were all these "you're not entitled to Twitter's megaphone" people then? On the exact opposite side of the principle, mostly.

1. How do you stop a person who can legally read a book, and thus has the key needed to decrypt it in memory, from obtaining that key and using it to create an unencumbered copy on their hard drive without totally depriving them of ownership of their computer to provide a controlled environment where such copying is impossible?

2. I remember a substantial issue with Etherium wherein someone was able to steal a large amount of currency from other users in 2016. What are the risks of an attacker say stealing a large number of tokens intended to be sold to users from distributor or even the ability to create them? In a decentralized world how do you invalidate them? If you can invalidate them doesn't that mean any seller can take back anything?

This can happen now of course they can steal a copy of your pre production movie but potential to monetize is garbage and effect on your legitimate value proposition may be largely unchanged. In this brave new world their stolen tokens may actually have a legitimate market. Steal 1 million tokens sell all 5 days after release as already read for 10% less than going rate before owner bans tokens from legitimate market.

3. What about the case in which someone breaks into your computer or infects it with malware and effectively loots all your books and music and sells it on craigslist/amazon/facebook. How do you invalidate those purchases without a secondary authority. If you can haven't you recreated central distribution with more steps?

Something I missed the first time around—in the comments below the article, the teacher expands on what she actually did. This was originally one long paragraph, but I've added paragraph breaks for readability:

---

> At the time, I let it go so I could think and regroup myself. There was more than fractions to think about: Is it possible for both equations to be true: 1/3 + 1/3 = 2/6 and 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6. This was a long discussion that kept their interest, in which I learned that many (most?) of the students didn’t think of fractions as numbers. That was another hurdle. I kept going back to what we know about adding whole numbers.

> Then I took another approach, once I was sure that they understood that 1/3 and 2/6 are equivalent, so how can I add a number to itself and wind up with a sum that’s the same as one of them? In all of these discussions, students would change their thinking. We looked at adding on a number line. I used pattern blocks to explore the same problem. I kept talking about keeping our attention on what was 1 whole.

> My, this all takes time, and the time is important for students to develop, cement, and extend their understanding. What I didn’t do, that I’ve been thinking about now, is to make it part of a writing workshop on persuasive writing and have them choose a conjecture and write. I think I could spend most of the year on this with students.
I haven't read many other books on the topic, but the Fate Core guide book[0] is an amazing resource for this (and Fate is a great system in itself). It really goes into a bunch of detail about how to make the game fun for your players, e.g. it mentions that dying makes players feel bad, but the bigger problem is that death is boring, and it's much better to put your player in a situation where they have to be creative to escape.

This has the potential to be a treasure trove for quantitative research in addition to qualitative exploration. What fraction of decks started with defining the problem to be solved vs. presenting the solution, for example.

If there is any way you could extend this collection to include some chronological and/or raise sequence information it would greatly help those interested in doing that kind of analysis on the data (what year was this version of the deck used, and was that a seed or Series C round, etc).

I'll assume that kind of data may not be core to your interests in decks, but having a standardized way to present it in your pages when available and an easy way for those who have that sort of info to send it to you would help make this collection grown in value.

It may also be interesting to eventually have multiple decks for a given company, both for different raises and within a single round (many times founders will tweak and revise their deck based on feedback as a round progresses). Just getting one copy of a deck is hard enough, but you might at least think towards the question of how would you present the data if you had multiple different copies of the seed round deck from an interesting unicorn.

Thanks for assembling and presenting this wonderful collection.

Fundamentally exploration is much more important for music than it is for books due to the time it takes to consume a single unit. Either way, usually the most important part is showing that a customer is willing to make the jump from $0 to $0.01 and there are numerous music services that have shown that pirates are willing to make that leap in the right circumstances.

This is fair, but, the original article mentioned installing a random module on github. A C/C++ library large enough to have distro maintainers, is more akin to a large JS library that has UMD scripts hosted by Cloudflare. In that case, a developer could just do '<script src="https://cdnjs.com/lib.js">' in a html page.

I'm not saying JS is perfect, or that other languages don't have these issues. I haven't used Rails in years but I remember spending a day trying to get a gem installed and figuring out why nokogiri wouldn't compile. Almost every language has these problems.

That is a disturbing trend.
OpenResty is pretty great, I think people would abuse the heck out of it it weren't so heavily Lua but when people do find it they build some amazing stuff (like Kong).

We have a fair number of people running OpenResty on Fly.io. It's a pretty good fit. I'd _love_ to have an OpenResty based on v8/JavaScript that wasn't so heavily tied to nginx events, I could build so many neat apps.

Phone companies don't set up incentive structures that encourage a certain kind of content. Facebook has an "algorithmic" feed, likes, and "engagement" metrics that rewards certain behaviours and punish others. They are rightly being pilloried when these incentives encourage and promote constant outrage, conspiracies, and completely fact-free fear mongering.
How to Tax Cloud Computing?
The internet is not broken.

It is certainly not perfect, for example IPv4 has a scaling problem, but it still works damn well. It can be improved so that it can fit the needs it didn't have originally (ex: with IPv6), but it is not fixing, it is an adaptation.

None of the points in the "fix-the-internet" are things that are broken. They are new needs. Everything privacy-related for instance. The base internet protocol are all clear text, then we started encrypting secrets like passwords, then personal data, then full end-to-end encryption. Decentralization went from providing a reliable link between two computers, to services that are fully accessible even when part of it is offline, to services that simply can't be shut down.

There is no fix here, it is just building stuff on top of an internet that works better than I ever hoped for. Good, but calling it "fixing" is a bit pretentious.

Right since the existing players are entrenched, but might work for other (emerging) countries?

We've never been big on mobile payments in the U.S. (because credit cards), but I'm finding myself using Apple Pay more and more. I read somewhere than ~50% of payments in the U.S. are now contactless.
Unfortunately this has become a political hot-potato and nobody is thinking straight, so the entirely preventable losses will continue to mount.
Yeah, if Apple Pay and Google Pay has the same market share then website could integrate those service and achieve the same, I agree. However, Apple Pay and Google Pay are also harder to use from the perspective of both consumers and merchants in these countries in the beginning, and IMO that's the reason they failed in the first place.

I don't know what payment methods these services require now, but in the beginning at least, they both supports just credit cards, which is basically suicidal. Most users won't be able to use it at all.

From merchants' perspective, they don't need to pay for transactions on WeChat Pay or AliPay, whereas both Apple Pay and credit card companies would charge them for usage. For this reason most small business wouldn't even think of using them.

I take it you've never worked in information security, because cleaning up after a mess like this is an enormous time suck and they will need to audit their data to make sure it hasn't been "adjusted". (From a national security perspective, I bet derailing a competitor's vaccine trials is at least as valuable as "stealing" data that was already going to become public in the near future.) That means spending time and money that would be better spent doing just about anything else, if it weren't for human nature.

So, Lament for the Fallen sounds fantastic. I've got a break from school coming up, and would like to read it. I cannot find a way to purchase it on your website.

The problem is that every retailer I can find that sells it sells a DRM'd version. Adobe Digital Editions isn't available for my operating system. There's no way for me to purchase a digital copy of your book that I can actually read.

If you sold a DRM-free epub on your website, I'd be reading Lament right now. I wouldn't have batted an eye at paying you $10 for a book Amazon sells for $5.

If I want to read your book on my Kindle, the only option is piracy. Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to pirate your book. I'll just end up purchasing an ebook from an author that has a DRM-free epub on their site.

Your books sound interesting and I hope you find commercial success as a writer. I just can't contribute to that success until your work's available in a format I can read.
It does though. If a teacher has to teach 50 students instead of 17, that is a huge difference in the amount of attention any given student will have for help. Teachers scale better than some things, but not infinitely.
