> I applaud anybody who takes a moral stand, especially if it might cost them something they hold dear.

I also applaud anyone who takes a moral stand about what they are willing to do, especially if it might cost them something they hold dear.

If that moral stand involves enforcing a standard of conduct on others, then it's anywhere from slightly to extremely more complicated. Enforcing behavior on others for the perceived benefit of all has been responsible for some major problems in the past (for example, not allowing people to express their sexuality), so let's be careful how much we throw in with those pushing to instill a level of behavior on those who want a place of their own to speak freely (to take as an example another part of the comments here, where Ellen Pao calls out Ohanian re: the_donald).

Many of us may support it in this case because it aligns with our values of inclusion and tolerance towards others (even if it's sort of a catch-22), but it's not like leaders of moral charges haven't been known to go too far before, nor like movements haven't been co-opted by other interests before.

Edit: Clarified where the example I was referring to came from, since that might have been confusing in isolation.
This is technically incorrect. You might argue that censorship is commonly understood to mean specifically government censorship. But censorship by itself does not have to refer to the actions of the state.

First they came for controversial right wing views... then they came for Covid “disinformation”...

Putting the joke aside, I really think we are starting to see that once this door opens, it will only get worse. The pressure will increase to ban books and it will happen, whether or not it’s controversial or disinformation or whatever.

I can only hope this will be enough of a market opportunity that someone else can build a business to rival things like amazon.
It's less about bits and more about entropy. Passwords tend to be low on entropy because of words and patterns present in the sequence. Its almost always going to be harder to break passwords by trying every possible hash than doing dictionary attacks against plaintext passwords. 256 bits is around 37 characters of base64 text. Compare that to most passwords and it's safe to say they aren't losing entropy when hashed.

Social media is wildly influential. At this point, it is likely more influential than any other form of media. Reddit is the #2 social media platform by traffic in the US, after Facebook.
>From a people placement perspective, a parade and a protest are pretty equivalent.

Correct. Regardless of which one is more important, the effects will be long lasting. You won't be able to use public health as a justification for forcing Americans to stay home or shutter businesses in the future. You have a constitutional right to assemble.
The arguments against his book in that post are not particularly damning. More like par-for-the-course for pop science.

And it's not like academia is immune to this. Selection bias? Claims of causation? I bet half of the researchers on this list could have their work criticized in a similar manner.

>"marijuana makes young black people mentally ill and violent."

Interesting framing of his quoted passage. He doesn't say it makes "black people" mentally ill and violent, he says it makes all people mentally ill and violent. Whether or not that's true (I don't believe it is), that's a bad faith interpretation of his argument.
Just take any (communism, revolution etc) agenda from the far left and try to post against that in some popular subreddit. I guarantee that you will get banned immediately. At this point they should just post a "Only Leftists allowed" banner. That would be so much easier.

Most states have ended lockdown down. Some for more than a month. Covid deaths in the US are still declining. The difference between now and March is that we have a much better understanding about the nature of super-spreading events.[1]

We know that a very high amount of spreading comes from a disproportionately small amount of activities. Like choir practice, unventilated subways, and nursing homes. The upshot is that any future lockdown will be much more tailored and have a much smaller impact than the full-scale shutdown we saw in April.

It may be patently true, but it added nothing to the discussion beyond "well, actually".
You can check complexity or username reuse client side. You could even block the n most common passwords clientside if you wanted to.
Sure!

A standard ticket pipeline might look like this:
Backlog > Review/Estimate > In Progress > Internal Review > Testing > Client Review > Feedback > Testing > Release

But the rapid pipeline will be more like:
Create Ticket > In Progress > Testing > Release

This leaves the ball almost entirely in the developers court, and removes any step that requires waiting for feedback from the client or even the Project Manager.

So you can see the risk factors pretty quickly, with no review steps what if the developer gets it wrong? So that leaves the Project Manager some important questions: Is this ticket concise enough to be rapid? No room for back and forth discussions or muddy details. Is this ticket small enough to be rapid? Can't be a big new feature that's just being framed as urgent but could realistically wait. Can I trust the developer to get this right with no review? If you can't, then it's probably best it goes through the standard pipeline with the review steps anyway.

In big enough teams it can help manage workload, you can leave a specific developer intentionally under-utilized so that they have space for rapid tickets. During their under-utilized time they can be open for mentorship/learning/pair-programming until a rapid ticket pops up.

How did you fix it? I suffer from asthma and frequent urination issues, both of which wake me up several times a night. It doesn't seem to matter much what my routines before sleep and after waking are if I am involuntary woken during sleep, and I'm stymied for a solution.
> but to avoid combating parties one-upping each other with chemical warfare

That policy makes sense and seems applicable to protests to prevent peaceful protests from escalating and becoming violent.
> they are closer to achieving this impossible idea.

But what is the impossible idea? What is homoiconicity? Can you give a succinct definition that is consistent with your usage?

I don't meant this to sound so antagonistic, but I've seen multiple times where people try to argue in favor of it and come up short when pressed for details.

Unfortunately, I do not think I am sufficiently skilled to carry the debate forward. I really recommend looking through Shriram's Twitter exchange to see some of his rebuttals on the topic.
In the history books, having a printing press was expensive and only a few large organizations could publish books. Now I can write a politics book with GPT2 and upload it to Amazon and it'll be listed alongside New York Times Best Sellers.

There were plenty of official non-American organizations saying that masks worked, they had years of peer reviewed studies to back their claims up. I don't think these books are upheld to the same rigor.
> and he’s even a Twitter blue check.

This line made me laugh. As if a Twitter blue check means anything at all. Even used “even”.

Regarding the “censorship”, I’m not sure why anyone thinks Amazon as a publisher should just publish anything. They are not even close to being a monopoly and there are a million other channels to publish.
Are you suggesting we shouldn't protest now because we haven't protested at such a scale in a while?

There have been protest since King, though not at this scale, no. The current circumstances are Political with a capital P, the class of things that can reshuffle a society. If this isn't the time to protest for redress of grievances, then there is no time.

And I disagree if you're arguing that protesting is not essential.
It must be a minefield for French people learning English as we have incorporated a so many french words and assigned more specific meanings to them. I might have this example wrong as I don't speak much french, but there must be quite a few like this:

Corpse 'A dead body' -> Cadavre

Cadaver 'A dead body prepared for burial or medical research' -> ?
I think the danger is that it's always "obvious" that the current fashionable tech works in analogous ways to the mind/brain. We can spend all day finding ways in which they are similar; for example how the brain does information processing and the CPU does too.

The point is, I think, people from the steam engine era had similar reasons why the mind/soul was exactly like a steam engine. I won't try to reproduce them here, but I'm sure there were convincing arguments at the time. Who has the awareness to claim, before the current fashionable technology becomes unfashionable, that maybe no, the brain is not a close match for an information processing machine? ;)
I assumed that it's his/their fiduciary duty to maximize profit, and if the current excutive team doesnt do that, they will be replaced with a team that will.
Indeed. That and more considerations like leaving behind your family, friends, love interests. Or the language, culture, food.

I am slightly surprised that he's washing his hands of it instead of leveraging his position to do something about it. Maybe he tried and failed behind the scenes.

1. If the client is written by the same people as the server, then it provides no improvement in password confidentiality.

2. It provides no additional security in the authentication process.

3. It provides no additional security-at-rest for post-breach protection.

Doing something like that ends up in the dangerous bucket of duct-tape crypto. I don't mind people playing with crypto, but things are not as simple as they seem, and "more" is not necessarily better.

> two kids is not 2x the work. More like 4x

Different families seem to have pretty different experiences here. In my case having two kids has felt like maybe 1.5x the work, decreasing as they get older. At this point (4y and 6y), I think one child would likely be more work than two, because they spend so much time playing with each other.

Probably depends a lot on what kids you happen to have, how they get along, your parenting style, and what resources you have.

> African Americans, however, account for 24 percent of those fatally shot and killed by the police despite being just 13 percent of the U.S. population.

While I don't think it's a conspiracy, I am convinced that the civil unrest was directly tied to the lockdowns.

Floyd's death is the acute cause for the protests, but we've had these protests before and they were much milder.

Add mass unemployment, economic uncertainty, closed bars, closed parks, shelter-in-place orders, zero entertainment, no sports, etc., and you suddenly have an explosive situation.

But steam engines and hydraulics and gear mechanisms are all Turing complete. There is nothing wrong with those models. You could build a brain out of any of them, unless the brain computes something that is not computable.

If the brain does something that is not computable, that's a direct challenge to some of our most established science. It is possible, but I think very unlikely.
This has of course been Dominic Cummings’s plan for years - you can read about it quite openly on his blog, and on the blog of his friend American physicist/eugenicist Steve Hsu. The point is to allow private industry to capture the health information of private citizens in order to turn Britain into a genetic modification powerhouse- pitched on the basis of fighting genetic diseases, but in fact founded on the anti-egalitarian, genetic-determinist, race-and-iq worldview of much of the modern right

Isn't the recent Google quantum "supremacy" experiment evidence against the extended Church-Turing thesis?
Not really.

The whole district is kinda like this. The kids really do need the help. The reasons for that need are all unique to each kid, but the underlying reason is poverty. They don't have enough to eat, their parents are incarcerated, their home life is horrific, they don't sleep enough, they get beat up by authority figures, etc. Add up any few of the reasons, and they'll clearly need an IEP, then add in trauma and PTSD stuff, and ... well. Mind, some are just fine through all the mess, and some need help even for less extreme issues. All people are distinct.

Giving kids the little help they can get at school due to these life-long circumstances is well warranted.

If you are not including humans your maths might be right. With humans not all 8 bits of extended ASCII are realistically used in passwords. And rarely you get passwords longer than 10 characters.

And then: By the password not leaving the system you avoid another issue with humans: If the hash is lost (accidental logging and locks leaking and such things happen) this won't allow to sign in to other accounts, where the lazy human used the same password.

For machine-to-machine communication tokens with higher entropy can and should be used.

> What perplexing is to think about how humans can cooperate effectively on a scale of billion people to solve humanity biggest problems.

I think the opposite is true. We cannot properly cooperate effectively on a large scale to solve humanity's biggest problems. Just look at the attempts for global nuclear disarmament, it has been a failure. Look at the accelerating impact of carbon on the environment, it has been a catastrophic failure.

I think while the article shows an interesting bit about human psychology, that we are all secretly altruists at heart, which I believe is true.. But what governs the important global decisions isn't humanity. They're massive organizations and these massive organizations (whether a nation state or mega-corp) are made of humans, but they're not human.
