I am not seeing the privacy issue. In most cases the police are interacting with people out in the public rather than in their homes and businesses. In most jurisdictions it is already one party consent to record.
I really worry about where this is going. I think about Howard Stern moving over to Sirius satellite radio - as quaint as it seems in today's climate, he was at least as controversial (although in command of fewer armies) as Donald Trump is. The people who hated him then hated him as much, if not more, than the people who hate Donald Trump do now. I imagine some people quit Sirius in protest, but for the most part, people separated their own preferences from their jobs AND accepted that just because somebody isn't their own cup of tea doesn't mean that they shouldn't be anybody's cup of tea. This ideological purity test has me worried, though - I can easily imagine that the Trump-haters will view anybody who stayed at FB and opposed arbitrary censorship in an "if you're not with us, you're against us" way and blacklist ex-FB employees for not joining this guy. An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind, but that seems to be what a disturbing number of people are hoping for.

Those are ongoing issues with any form of government aid, and not specific to UBI.
Interestingly, threatening “no quarter” is a war crime [1]

> Under the modern laws of war, "it is especially forbidden ... to declare that no quarter will be given". This was established under Article 23(d) of the 1907 Hague Convention "IV – The Laws and Customs of War on Land".[6]

> Since a judgment on the law relating to war crimes and crimes against humanity at the Nuremberg Trials in October 1946, the 1907 Hague Convention, including the explicit prohibition against declaring that no quarter will be given, is considered to be part of the customary laws of war and binding on all parties in an international armed conflict.

I don't get it: So the idea is to help the middle class at the expense of the poor?

It sounds like you're saying that people who depend on food stamps and unemployment will see a smaller benefit under UBI than people who earn enough not to require those benefits.
Are you arguing that property crimes should result In summary execution?
Yes, the phrase "virtue signalling" is deeply cynical. Are there people who adopt a cause for aesthetics or social status rather than deeply felt convictions? Sure. But seldom is this slur applied to anyone because someone has done a behavioral study to determine the person insulted is feigning morality. And even if they are, if they are aping good behavior with desirable consequences, why insult them? The people calling others "social justice warriors" are doing even less.
I would like you to please change the title back because the quantity and recency is salient to the topic, and that the new title diminishes the title in those two specific ways.

1. This is not just about police attacks against journalists across the U.S. in general, this is about attacks since a specific date. The date matters because it is recent, it delineates a specific span of time (a mere five days), which helps the reader place it into context. This is about the protests that have occurred since the murder of George Floyd.

2. This is not just about some rare occurrence of police attacks against journalists since a specific date, this is about how this happened many, many times, and as the article notes, in the majority of the cases the journalists were clearly identifiable as press. This places it in context again: this is not a one-off incident, but something that has happened with startling frequency.

With the original title, it is easy to identify a through-line from the start of protests against the murder of George Floyd to a startling factual statement: on average, each day since then, police have attacked journalists over 20 times a day. Or to put it another way, police have attacked a journalist almost once an hour since the protests have begun.

That context is vital to the discussion, if as you say the headline has such an enormous impact on the conversation that follows. If, as I see in your recent edit, the distribution function is changed because the headline specifically calls out that high rate of attacks on journalists in a small window of time, then I think it moves that function for the better.
Your intentions seem right, but make sure you actually can "make the change you want to see" if you stay.

Your CEO has the power in this situation. The most you can do it make it more expensive for him to keep talent. Use your leverage wisely.
But the figure is, frankly, a silly one. That would be the cost assuming no income tax changes at all. You can shift the tax thresholds and rates to make it a net 0 change for everyone earning over some figure.
tee will also write to stdout, which can often mean that you get a bunch of binary gubbish splattered all over your terminal.

I recommend instead using "|sudo dd of=/dev/fb0", or, if you have moreutils installed, "|sudo sponge /dev/fb0"
622 times is on the high end! The average is less than 50 and the median I'd guess less than 10. But that scan was uploaded by the Internet Archive itself, only the physical book was donated by a prominent Internet Archive employee. I wonder if the publishers selected it out of spite for him, or even to keep the door open to including him personally in the suit (that would be nasty).

Why do you say C. S. Lewis is too old for statutory damages? Do you think the Internet Archive can claim it looked like it could be in the "last 20 years" phase (<https://archive.org/details/last20>)? I don't know... The publishers will probably claim the Internet Archive should know better, but at the same time they claim it doesn't understand a thing about copyright:

> IA erroneously decided that they were public domain works based on elementary misunderstandings of copyright law.

As for harming sales of books by making those publishers less visible, it will be interesting to see, but it's hard to make predictions. Just to be sure, publishers in their complaint write that IA's lending both increases and decreases sales at the same time:

> the traffic that IA drives to Better World Books [by having copies of the books] results in more book sales

but:

> IA competes directly with Publishers’ works in all formats (including, without limitation, print and digital) and market segments (including, without limitation, commercial, library, and school).

Indeed the complaint is mostly focused on purely hypothetical damages based on speculative predictions like:

> Consumers begin to view works as cheap and become increasingly unappreciative of what it takes to produce them and unwilling to pay fair value for them.

The problem with all these arguments is that they would apply to libraries lending physical books as well, if they were not established yet. Kyle Courtney makes this point:

Great work as always Martrix and Riot team. This is a long awaited feature, right now I am considering using Riot to replace most of my messaging, if it supports a SMS bridge.

Given the anti-privacy climate in the US, it's great how Matrix is not US based.
But there could be. And there should be.
I fully understand his reasoning and respect it as a principled action.

Though, viewing it from the company perspective it really isn't that easy to just do those things he is demanding, and doing it could just cause a misstep to even further in the hole. Twitter has taken a stand, but doing so they have invited a lot of scrutiny on them, and escalation to further actions that would just increase the pain, for the company and their community. On one hand you have the demand to widen their actions to cover almost anything on their platform, and if they don't they just appear hypocritical or worse politically motivated, further movement to this would harm their community and make their platform worse. Second the inevitable push back from various actors, like Ted Cruz with the Iran sanctions, and Trump pushing to throw away the Section 230, and who knows what else this all will lead to.

So making it sound like it's just a choice between coffee and frappuccino, instead of potentially throwing your whole company with the platform and it's community to a chaos, isn't a light decision. And making it sound like it is, isn't actually helping neither Twitter nor Facebook.

I'm not talking about the technical problem, the technical problem is solved (including for human-readable addresses, which is the part that actually matters), I'm talking about the political part of the problem.

> I don't think it's reasonable to think that UBI could replace SS and Medicare, elderly people aren't going to give up those benefits for a significantly smaller lump sum.

My point is that you can compute the per capita benefit for each, and include that in the basic income. In FY2019, Medicare cost the Federal government $645 billion. In 2018, there were 59,869,402 Medicare enrollees, which works out to about $11,000 per year per person. Medicare is, therefore, an in-kind donation of $11,000 per year. You can either give people this money directly, or you can just deduct $11,000 from the yearly UBI and have it pay out $7,000 per year instead.

While the elderly do indeed really like Social Security, it would probably be better for everybody for the elderly to accept less welfare so that everyone else can also receive some of the basic income. Households above the age of 55 hold 75% of American wealth, in part because most old people are rich: they've saved up money over their entire working lifetime. While there are senior citizens that are poor, the UBI would in theory be more than enough to meet their needs.

In southwest USA, if Dark Sky said "rain in 23 minutes", it was rarely off by more than a minute. That was really nice, in the "oh shit I should give the dog a pee break before the rain" sense.
If you show up for protest duty in [2] you’re more likely to turn it into a riot.
If the UBI funds are taken from tax dollar (aka force) then it doesn't matter if it "works" because it's immoral. If you are saying force is moral. Then we have bigger problems than $500 a month.

If the plaintiff's case lacks merit, the defendant will get $Y back when the plaintiff loses, plus other fees, and the plaintiff who wasted everyone's time pays all of those costs and potentially punitive damages or sanctions if it was a really egregious abuse of the takedown process.
I don't think anyone is seriously arguing that. But it would be nice if the President of the United States would act like a grown up and when tensions are running high try and calm the situation instead of adding fuel to the fire. It is actually possible to try and deal with situations in a measured, substantive way instead of going on Twitter and making incendiary statements.

Why would you target productivity over quality of life? We're already more productive than at any point in human history. The productivity is why we can optimize for quality of life, not a justification for attempting to squeeze even more productivity out of citizens.
Do you get the stack trace of the error?
That's worrying if true, but something hopefully they'll fix. I imagine deleting notes should be a fairly rare occurrence, so putting safeguards around it (such as a confirm, maybe moving note file to a trash location for later cleanup) is warranted.

Given what it is, it's probably safe and a good idea to make the vault on top of a versioned file system, even if that's a dropbox, google drive stream folder, or backblaze folder. It's probably not too hard to get a solution that's encrypted so it's more private as well.
MMT is an absolute joke, I’m glad at least someone has called it out here.
From the article:

One objection is that police are already doing a difficult and dangerous job for relatively low pay, and it would be unfair to saddle them with the additional cost of insuring themselves.

No problem. We can take that pot of taxpayer money currently being used to pay damage awards for misbehaving cops — $308 million in payouts last year divided by 34,000 uniformed NYPD officers equals nearly $10,000 per cop — and use it to give them an insurance allowance.

When very‐ high‐ risk officers see premiums go up, they would have to pay the difference out of their own pockets. That’s fair

Nothing you posted is accurate.

"thug" is not a word of any color. I have seen it used plenty referring to white people. The primary place it is used as you claim is by leftists creating a caricature to argue against.

I haven't seen "no quarter" used, but no, no one is advocating anyone get the death penalty for "smashing windows", although that's probably the tamest thing rioters have been doing. If someone did use that particular statement, they probably are not familiar with its actual meaning in a similar way as nearly no one is familiar with the meaning of decimate or other historic terms that have no real use in modern times.

As far as arguing the President's social media messages are the official communications of the office of the President (that's a capitalized proper noun btw, I'm sure you're virtue signaling by not capitalizing it), that argument has been made by multiple leftists who were upset that he blocked them from his twitter feed.

All of that twitter bullshit is ridiculous on both sides of the argument, but it is what it is.
I started using the Zettelkasten approach for a side project (using The Archive) and it has a lot going for it, but one big minus: It felt like work rather than something fun.

I've reverted just to a combination of handwritten notes and notes files written in vim (which I find enjoyable).
This is them shaking the public down and saying they decide which laws to enforce.
So, that's the current Matrix network, not the new P2P Matrix stuff. That said, I think the main takehomes are:

* We need to make it easier to jump into Riot/Web from the matrix.org home page.

* Google reCAPTCHA sucks; we know.

* The new recovery passphrase thing is an error - we know, we're in the middle of fixing it, targeting next week.

* Joining rooms is slow - we know, this is harder to fix, but is on the menu.

Thanks for spelling it out ;)

> Slamming the brakes on the highway, interstate, autobahn is dangerous for the driver behind you. In some countries (maybe all) it's illegal to to this without an immediate danger. The car may see a sign on the side of the highway as "in your path" simply because the road is curving and the car can't tell that there's a radius and the sign is outside it.

I'm asking for a gradual slowdown, not slamming on the brakes.

There wasn't even a curve here. The lane went straight and visibly into the stationary object.

I don't think that would help as the bullets would eventually end up on the group with no accountability of who it hit or was aimed at.

I think it would be better to have a camera that takes a picture every-time a trigger is pulled. Then again nothing stops them from finding a way to disable it like the body cameras.
Hey if you want to live in a world where everything has to be an after school special with a moral message attached to it, more power to ya.

If you were to take another antibody test, I bet you would test positive. They are proving to be somewhat unreliable.
I’ve been off Facebook about a year and have spent far, far more time talking to and hanging out with friends than before. Even after Covid, we just switched to virtual hangouts, chat, and online games. Facebook does not help you keep in touch
Your phone has a phonebook.
> If there is such a thing as "OpenBook" and it still allows me to communicate, comment, view and react to FB-content, I'd ditch FB in an instant.

Same here. I love the idea of federated social media, but it seems hard to get e.g., my parents to use it. Is there something that could be done to make it more accessible?
Everything else aside, is anyone else a fan of that CV layout?
Thanks. Maybe I'll try it out. The only downside of Jetbrain tools is that they consume a lot of memory, but should be fine on my side.
This is the most non-sensical argument of all of the "I would but I can't" Facebook apologists. I've quit Facebook while many of my friends have not.

I still trade memes, hear about going-ons in the neighborhood, get invited to parties, and generally have a functioning social life. I keep in touch via iMessage, Signal, Facetime, and GASP! SMS, the plain 'ol telephone, and e-mail.

You do not NEED Facebook to have a functioning social life. It simply removes some of the friction of maintaining a social life in exchange for wildly valuable information about yourself and your friends. Meanwhile, it seems to be contributing to the destruction of Western society.

So yea I suppose it seems like a fair trade just so you know about that weekend party milliseconds sooner.
I'm curious to know how much value it adds to our lives to stay in touch with long distance friends over facebook. Didn't we survive for years on old fashioned texts, phone calls, or even emails? If they are really that important, wouldn't we just be doing those things? This might be an unpopular opinion and sound cynical, but really consider that if we dont want to use those forms of communication over Facebook, maybe those friends are better left as happy memories?

Without censorship, people will die and the global economy might crumble? Seems like a very odd conclusion. Besides, the global economy in its current form is completely unsustainable.

I understand the importance of racial justice, but are you saying somehow the global economy (I read that as multinational capitalism) is some vanguard of this principle?

It's also important to note that main stream academics all thought the stimulus during the financial crisis would be inflationary, and they were wrong. Now, I'm not advocating for the government to print money galore since more dollars chasing fewer resources means inflation, but I think there's a decent case to be made that the current debt level is sustainable if we can gain efficiency to match the rate of currency growth.

Also, I should add--I do not think UBI is a wise path.
UBI funds need not be taken from tax dollars. Taxes destroy money. Central banks create money. UBIs are funded through currency devaluation. Inflation, if edge cases are properly managed with cost controls (healthcare & education) and regulation (housing), is manageable.

We will print regardless (See: Japan, Fed, ECB), we're just arguing over which fiat bits end up in which accounts.
