If you do not disable Firefox's DoH support, it will by pass your Pi-Hole entirely. So you'd lose all the benefits of that and be limited to just the protections Firefox provides (which are great, to be clear. Just not as good as a well-sourced Pi0Hole)

Is a hybrid app the best choice?
The so-called "super apps", such as Rappi, are getting widely popular in Latin America. Maybe Facebook saw it as an opportunity for turning WhatsApp into their own super app.

It's also an opportunity to kill competition, since almost everybody uses WhatsApp.
Given that the first recognised death from AIDS was in the 80s, I'd dispute your saying that it was very much around in the 70s. I don't know what his sex life was like but as far as we know he wasn't a prostitute, a I.V. drug user or gay, so yeah he wasn't in any of the demographics hardest hit.
I mean, I basically do the same with the sample ballot that gets mailed to me.

I do not think so. A group of friends vs a group of people collaborating through internet is very different thing. I would be okay if rules simply say no discussion or talk outside of work we collaborate on.

But it is very likely same sensitive people will jump and say "how can one be quiet when XYZ minority group is getting harassed/attacked/bullied/doxxed ? Say something don't be quiet on grave injustice." By saying something most likely means always in favor of over sensitive folks. If one tries to bring in different POV which does not fit the offended person's worldview, the person who said something is now racist or some kinda anti-minority douchebag.

So to me COC have one main point that is to attack on people who you do not like.

How are you even going to enforce anti-encryption legislation? Deep packet inspection?
I am going to give the NYT itself the benefit of the doubt and guess that, if there is a policy, it's not one that says that reporters must use real names in situations like this. One would hope that it actually says that reporters MAY use real names, at their discretion.

That said, considering what a crappy track record the press has with respecting the privacy of pseudonymous Internet personalities (I'm thinking Naomi Wu, sure, but also that one article where the author shamelessly put way way way too much work into trying to track down and out _why), perhaps that's pollyannaish of me.

>> Once you start with this type of thinking, it never stops ... you're instead having meetings

Is this an example of the slippery slope fallacy?

There was no meeting required, the idea and action were raised and taken in the same parent post. Parent poster started with that type of thinking and avoided the halting problem.

>> The amount of energy that this takes up is ENORMOUS

Is it possible that learning to use different words in many contexts is the same as the act of picking up a thesaurus? How commonly does it not take such a trivial amount of energy? How commonly do you need to expend an enourmous amount of energy to achieve this end?

>> especially when you're dealing with something as difficult and dangerous as the slave trade

There's a bigger point can be made here, what if you're dealing with a topic you don't know well enough to navigate possible sources of offence? If you don't know, then your 2 choices are learn or ignore, it's possible that both of these are valid choices depending on context.

>> no longer allowed

"Allowed" is quite a vague term for the concept you raise - are we saying law against particular words or are we saying social norm and convention that can be broken in art, in protest, in challenge to the status quo? If it's anything short of a law that expressly forbids particular words, then the rest of your sentence's argument is nullified.

>> Imagine

Or don't. Slippery slope fallacy is a real danger in itself to be avoided.
Learned in high-school (typing class in 9th grade) on an old IBM electric typewriter. Didn't do much typing for the next couple of years, so my first year of college I took a "keyboarding" class to refresh my skills.

In hindsight, probably two of the best decisions I've ever made.
I think that's a great idea, at the very least it filters out a lot of spam and ideally gives you more context about each individual so if something controversial is said you can put it into context with them as a whole. I just worry that these smaller discussion groups are becoming more and more rare online, but maybe the current craziness will lead to their resurgence.

Cautionary personal anecdote: DAVx5 has a nasty habit of completely hosing my entire contacts list, even when I wasn't using it in the foreground. It was even more insidious because several times this happened while I was actively using other apps that also interact with the contacts in my phone (e.g. k9 mail client), causing me to dump troubleshooting effort into several different red herrings. Since I do not "sync" my contacts to any third parties, I had to keep re-importing my contacts from a local contacts file until I was finally able to pin the problem to DAVx5.

And you could tune a piano that way. But it would only be in tune for the particular key that you tuned it to. So if it was tuned to C (as is normal for a piano) it would be (more noticeably) out of tune for any other key. Further, since other instruments are normally tuned for other temperaments, you'd be out of tune relative to them, even in your chose key.

There have been similar systems for seed-sowing for decades. This is the first system I've seen anything like it for seedling transplanting, but the concept is not so far different from the seed-tapes that horticulture has used for quite a long time, so I'd be more inclined to think the inspiration came from closer by than electronics.

Maybe, just don't install it?
When I moved from the UK to the US in early 2006 I lost my Symbian-running 6680 Nokia, because it couldn't be ported over, it was locked to a UK network and they refused to unlock it. I loved Symbian at the time, losing it took me back to the dark ages.

In the UK I'd had my Nokia 6680 with front and rear cameras, unlimited 3G, multi-tasking apps, a proper web browser, the ability to install apps, and even some crap ability to watch TV. It also had a memory card for storing and playing music. I had it connected to my Powerbook (17" powerbook was my best laptop ever), and had 3G usable browsing speeds anywhere, wirelessly through bluetooth, and the phone's 3G. It synced contacts, emails, etc.

Coming to the US I got the latest and greatest - a Razor. It had an OS that felt like going back to the 70s. No 3G. No camera at all. No apps or ability to use them. Contacts on the SIM with no decent data. All it could do well was text or call.

Even the first iPhones were well behind the Symbian/6680 combo I'd had for a while in the UK (no 3G, no apps, no multi-tasking, no front camera), and it wasn't until the iPhone 4 in 2010 that I got the front camera back, which meant I had feature parity with what I'd had in the UK in 2005.

Universities switched from teaching Java and Scheme to teaching Python.

Probably because Python resembles pseudo-code.

Anecdotally I've heard from a few people who said Python was the first language where ideas just made sense to them. An "easy to learn" language, in other words.

(I can't relate to that and don't know why Python is thought of that way. As far as I can tell, beneath the syntax (which is prettier than Perl), Python is a messy language with even messier standard library.)
I run my own mail server. I really wish I didn't. It made total sense at the time (10 years ago) but now it really doesn't.

My setup is:

1. Edge facing custom written SMTP server, that handles various filtering rules, and passes the incoming mail through spamassassin, and then onto Exchange.

2. Ubuntu host running spamassassin in Daemon mode.

2. Exchange Server as the main mail server (was version 2003, but has gone through all the upgrades, and is now version 2013)

I spend so much wasted time battling spam, and fixing stuff when it breaks. Although I am lucky that my sending IP is not blacklisted, I still have to make sure that DKIM and SPF records are all correct for my various domains, and still the odd mail hoster rejects my emails.

I'm trying to migrate the mail system into Office 365, but the sheer effort to do that is a whole project in itself...
I like the idea and have also noticed the rise of the public Google doc. I see it as a part of a greater trend of people flocking to semi-private internet spaces. (I'm in various semi-public Slack channels and Discord groups.) Bringing discoverability to these spaces could be valuable.
Now we has. We're all doomed.
This is the primary reason why every time I read a news article that seems to have a bit "too perfect" narrative about who is good and who is bad, I go and check Wikipedia or other news sites. It usually result in a broader context. Few things tend to be black or white, and never in any political topics.

Out of all news I read there is maybe one small set of investigative journalist that I trust to give me a balanced amount of context to from my own opinion, and as a mark of quality, they are disliked by the government, activists, the left and the right.

> Auto-steer systems that leverage machinery that already exists.

That links to a company selling a retrofit system for 7500 Euro and no annual fees. That's super cheap compared to buying a new tractor and I hope they are successful. But...

My brother-in-law hobby farms a few hundred acres of corn and soybeans and built an autosteering system for his 1950s tractor. The only thing he bought new was an Arduino board to tie it all together. Everything else was used farming equipment and his total cost was less than $1000 (USD). He's not even a programmer, just an engineering degree from Flyover State U. He cobbled together open source software to make it work.

The traditional farmer is very resourceful. They aren't going to allow your company much margin if they can do even part of it themselves. Good luck to VC-backed firms.

Perhaps it depends on the environmental noise you are exposed. In nature, most noise is percussion-like, non-rational harmonics, so octaves don't make much sens. OTOH listening to electric motors and combustion engines since the day you are born, makes you 'like' octaves, fifths and thirds, since these rotational machines generate these intervals while doing noise.
Wait until the first ARM Macs in the form factor that you want (which might be less than a year). At that point you can see if the features of the new models convince you that they are worth it. If not you should still be able to buy a nearly new Intel model for a good price.

That way you'll have no regret at possibly missing out on new features and have the maximum choice of options.
I hope people don't forget that Wikileaks has never published anything that has been proven false. Not once. Julian Assange is in solitary confinement in a prison on bullshit charges, and this is just another one.
The open source release will probably happen within 3 weeks from now. It is an early test version that is running on baserow.io, but this is for trying it out only. I still need to write documentation, an openapi spec, a plugin boilerplate and some other small things. When that is finished I will make the code available publicly.

> and I should disable FF's DoH support?

yeah there is no reason (I can think of) why you need FF DoH with your setup. In fact if you were to enable DoH in FF it would bypass your pie-hole - so you most certainly want to avoid that.

my setup looks pretty much like yours with some additional /etc/hosts blocking[1] on the client just to avoid the round-trip to the pie-hole. it's also a double insulation (but it's more of a performance reason than bc of paranoia). I found that switching off ipv6 dns resolution in FF (`network.dns.disableIPv6` in about:config) has tremendously sped up my DNS lookups in FF (though I haven't had time to analyze why).

in case you're worried about homograph phishing attacks you could also add a regex to your pie-hole's dnsmasq (not sure what piehole uses but I know it has a fork of dnsmask that supports regex) so that punicode domains (any domains matching "xn--") are sinkholed to 0.0.0.0 as well.

I want to see the end of skim the top businesses that come out of SV. They pretty much set up a database, a front end and expect everyone to pay them a percentage of a business that already works. But because they capture a young crowd, it eventually takes over. I hope Ag is resistant to that.

I'd rather see SV help the industry keep its jobs and just create new machines. Like the drone that picks weeds (or just makes a map of all weeds in the field for someone to go pick). Perhaps a drone that scoops up bugs via vacuum attachment.

Whatever it is, I'm kinda just sick of SV starts that want to skim the top of some existing process.

FiveThirtyEight has done some work in that area for purposes of splitting urban/rural from a political perspective. The article also mentions a couple other examples of something similar.

There are multiple definitions of the word octave. Some have to do with frequencies and some have to do with musical scales. Furthermore, no common instrument emits a pure tone, there are always overtones and other frequency components (aka timbre). If the 'note' on the instrument is based on the fundamental frequency, there's no guarantee that all of the modes in the timbre are going to re-align at double the frequency of the fundamental.

So, basically, we're all talking past each other (again).
My point is that anyone can walk by and nothing will likely happen, but if it does, there is some recourse, and the unlikely event is just as unlikely regardless of race.
Dopamine, Smartphones and You: A battle for your time
Have any smart people in tech come up with a solution that would satisfy the 4th amendment while preserving secure communications? It seems that to lawmakers, tech people are proclaiming that they've done such a good job building secure systems that the 4th amendment cannot apply to them.

Personally, I'd rather let some criminals go free than to break encryption. I don't see lawmakers being willing to make the same trade-off.
Editing the rules as a user with a GUI is the easy part. The more difficult parts are in details:

- how do you recognize which applications the packets belongs to? Even if you would get pid in the rules engine (which you normally don't), how do you name it? /proc/$pid/cmdline can be manipulated at will by the process; then you need to recognize additional parameters when you are using applications that run other code, from bash to virtualbox.

- what happens to the connection while the firewall is waiting for the user input in the UI? Linux apps handle long timeouts badly

- what happens to other connections while the firewall is waiting for the user input in the UI? Right now, unfortunately, whey would have to wait too.

- LittleSnitch does interesting heuristic wrt hostname/ip translation - you can get different (or no) hostname via reverse query than the application asked for. You need to monitor what each application is resolving and what answers it get. If you get same IPs for different hostnames for a single application, all bets are off, only application knows which one it connects to (you can eventually learn with DPI, but for that it might be too late). For applications with their own resolvers using DoH/DoT, tough luck.

The first problem could be solved at the level of sandbox runtimes (i.e. flatpak et al), i.e. when you know, that the application is running in the namespace belonging to specific flatpak package, you would present that as that specific application, they cannot lie about that anymore but the price is, that you can handle only sandboxed apps; for scripting and so on you still have to find how to distinguish specific instances. For all the other problems, you would have to figure them out.
Cloudflare is harmful to independent CDN's. They hide the originating i.p. address (no other does it) to the nameserver in the name of "privacy" so you can only have as much granularity as the nearest cloudflare server to user (anti-competitive). That is unless you buy an ipv4 block (because everyone is still on ipv4) and set up anycast.

For non 1.1.1.1 dns users I can just set up varnish and they'll be served via GEO ip lookup so the domain gets pointed to the nearest ip address. This is much cheaper.
I'm not going to buy an ipv4 block just for cloudflare dns users.

Their privacy claim is a lie because your webserver is going to be exposed to the end user i.p. address anyways after resolving from the nameserver.
> As a non US person is clear that his support in US fall because of Russia-Trump busines

His support in the US was only ever on the fringes (because they liked anything damaging to the then-current war efforts regardless of methodology) and ,because of the partisan affiliation of the President, that was mostly on the left fringes, and the reason they supported it was partisan politics.

Naturally, even without the Russia connection, the “Trump business” destroyed that. But it's not “hypocrisy” the lost him support.
