While I agree that exercises etc. are the way to deeply understand the subject I disagree with your take that math lectures are senseless. I admittedly always struggled when I skipped lectures and attending them helped me to see the “bigger connections” and actually understand proofs given I was taking notes throughout the lecture.

In philosophy however - which for me this semester is entirely online without any video chat whatever interaction - the in person lectures were highly valuable to me due to their nature on heavily relying on discussion. While I do have a paper here and there to write my understanding mostly comes from attending the lectures.
App Clips seem like they would be very convenient and useful if you're visiting a medium-large city and doing things you didn't know there was an app for.

If they allow it now, it's either fairly recent (past couple of years), or they are inconsistent about it.
Some people predict that feature shrinking may end around 2025 with an inability to go below 2nm. If that's the case, Intel (and everyone else) will get time to "catch up" to the latest technology standards around 2030. TSMC may not be able to hold a lead forever, if there is a physics wall that stops additional shrinking.

There will be additional efficiencies to be found, and TSMC may continue to have an edge on a business-process level, but if shrinking stops, I'd expect the market to become as competitive as vehicle manufacturing currently is, by 2040.

Unfortunately you might have witnessed the achilles heel of ARM ecosystem, where certain SW/binaries are not available yet. Most open-source code can be compiled for ARM without much hassle[1][2][3], but some might require explicit changes to port certain x86 specific instructions to ARM.

I've been shifting my work to ARM based machine for some years now, mainly to reduce power consumption. One of my current projects - A problem validation platform[4](Go) has been running nicely on a ARM server(Cavium ThunderX SoCs) on scaleway; but weirdly scaleway decided to quit on ARM servers[5] sighting hardware issues which not many of the ARM users seem to have faced. Only ARM specific issue I faced with scaleway was that the reboot required power-off.

> But they shouldn't expect to be able manipulate and control discussion and face no backlash from users.

You're saying they should face backlash from government regulators not from users.

If there's a big user backlash, those users are already free to move to whatever site they want, or make their own.

---

Re: your comment about trolling, etc, not being illegal: yes, exactly. So if a site wanted to enforce some sort of "family friendly" policy, you could simply bomb them with truly illegal shit instead and get them in trouble with the regulators for not being able to keep up as they would be liable for that, since they aren't a "anything legal goes" platform.

There should be a users/penetration threshold above which enforcing a cultural code of conduct waives immunity. GDPR uses a similar threshold, and unless you're seriously arguing that "trolling", "flaming", and "swearing" are being moderated successfully on e.g. Twitter, it seems practical.

Im not sure if this is the case. India is transforming the caste system into modern form rather than striding away. There is still systemic discrimination happening across India based on caste. It is predominant in rural india than urban.

For ex: caste based marriages and honour killings are best example for these instances.

Indian urban liberals try their best but they don't know the reality on ground
It feels like a weird training video from some large company. "Here at McDonald's you'll help our customers get their favorite foods!"
No, thats just the core newsroom which is floors 2 and 3. Rest of the floors are a little different.
I mean, I see merit in the position that monopolistic corporate entities, which you are forced to interact with if you want to participate in modern society, have government-like power over people and should be held to similar standards in terms of civil liberties.

But Reddit is effectively just a big message board. Such interpretation would force every small internet forum to either become a [0-9]chan or a closed space for invited members only. There is lots of middle ground where the owners/the community polices some speech and you can reasonably, realistically just go somewhere else.
I don't think Hacker News should be able to censor lawful content and also claim protections under Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. If they want to police lawful content that is fine but then they are no longer an open platform and they should forfeit their Section 230 protections. I dislike the ability for online platforms to have their cake of protection against lawsuits and also eat their cake of policing lawful content they don't like.

No, it's exactly the same thing. The more variables you change, the harder it will be to debug a problem.
There is nothing about AppClips which look like they wouldn't be possible with QR codes.

Making these without providing Android support just feels mean, but I assume they are planning on making the Apple specific from the talk.
What does it mean to 'overproduce' something? Are you saying it's too polished and well done?
India is like a thousand different things heading in a thousand different directions. And those vectors change from day to day. There is no control in such a system. Only an illusion of control.

Its as good as looking at two hurricanes and saying well this hurricane is heading towards us, so we better "support" the other one and maybe cool shit will happen.

It makes an engaging story though.
You could say that about any company doing good. "But we don't know how much of this is politically motivated". For example, they run ad campaigns for voting/saving public lands.

Yes, they are spending their profits on it. And people like companies that do good things, so i'm sure it earns them some trust & brand loyalty. Does that mean it's ill intended?
Many people think that "free" is a bad deal given the profits these companies make. Many people would prefer the more transparent pricing of "$5 per month" over the abstract "Whatever we can earn from your data, combined with everyone else's, by any means"
I'm sure they will respect their customers' privacy.
One needs to be completely blind to make this heartless claim. Are you being sarcastic or something?

I don’t understand your point, or why you’re still making it.

The language one uses cannot influence the mindset of another person? Providing avenues to advocate for certain behavior should not be expected to increase the incidence of that behavior?

Then we have disagreed back here:

> I believe that (A) discovering what is considered normal in one’s community influences what one thinks, and (B) what one thinks is not disconnected from what one does.

and we will continue disagreeing.

I hope eventually you will change your mind, but I’m not prepared to (nor expecting to be able to) argue you into that.
iPad improvements are interesting; I can't think of any other product that started with so much potential but was completely fumbled in the same way.
If Google charged for the same services instead of providing it for free, would they make the same amount of billions? I assume everyone would agree that they would make way less. So the exchange in value is asymmetric and it still sort-of makes sense that you get some money for the outsize value that your personal details represents to them.
> Especially in this case where iirc the company founders bought up land for one of the biggest national parks in South America, I can believe it’s sincere.

Bill gates has been doing work with his foundation since the 90's. Founders personal passion projects are irrelevant. By your logic founder hates muslims by supporting Chinese regime making his company's stuff there.

They need to show what personal sacrifice they are making or this is purely a marketing move.

It's not dead, and I say thankfully because it not being dead retains its state as a containment mechanism of what is easily the worst group of internet users in internet history.

Ground Report, Covid-19: Delhi, India
IMO FAANG is doing its best to try and hoover up all the tech talent that wants to work for them. Which is to say that while they won't necessarily have to pay people an arm and a leg to attract them to overcrowded high-COL areas, they do still want to hoover up people who happen to already live in high-COL areas.

COVID has shown us that remote work is feasible, but it still introduces frictions that employers/employees may not want to put up with, and the main thing attracting people to high-COL areas in the first place is the relative ease of networking and switching jobs. The death of the high-COL tech hub is greatly overexaggerated.

Almost certainly. What people often miss in this discussion is that advertising is progressive--it's a transfer of value from richer people who can and will pay for both the service being used and the product that is being advertised to poorer people who cannot.

The mass-fraction actually doesn't scale like that.

This will continue to be a challenge because humans are simply not great at estimating. I have had success by explaining to managers that a big part of my job is to help them manage risk. In order for me to do that properly I typically need more information than is initially present so that I can give a high confidence estimate. I might say something like, "I can give you a low confidence ball park estimate right now but if you give me a few hours to research then I can greatly increase the confidence level."

After all, you know the least about a project at the beginning therefore no one should have a high degree of confidence in estimates given then.

Yes, I know; I'm simply pointing out that "cities" is not the same as "everywhere in the US". So asking for "fixes" to this issue that involve restructuring society everywhere in the US is not reasonable. The policing issues are issues that are local to the particular cities where these problems exist; local governments are the ones that should be held accountable for fixing them.
>I don't really get reddit's efforts to clean their site.

You don't get why a online forum might have an interest in ensuring every other post isn't a dick pic?

If you can understand that, maybe you don't, then you DO understand their interest in moderating their own website whether or not you agree with their moderation standards in practice. A dick pic may be obvious to you...but so long as the picture depicts someone >18yo then it is legal and free speech.

>They sometimes come up with measures like this, while routinely ignoring the development of horrible communities that they're aware of...

Again isn't it their right to determine what forums/threads dick pics may in fact be appropriate and which threads forums they aren't and should be moderated/removed?

The problem here is that ARM & x86 have very different memory models, not that the ISA itself is a big issue. Re-compiling for ARM is super easy, yes absolutely. Making sure you don't have any latent thread-safety bugs that happened to be OK because it was on x86 that are now bugs on ARM? That's a lot harder, and it only takes a couple of those to potentially wipe out any savings that were potentially had, as they are in the class of bugs that's particularly hard to track down.

Considering how much of Internet culture is currently being formed on reddit it's amazing how opaque the site is to history. The archival is low-quality and missing a lot.

One time I found a heavily gilded post memorializing a recently deceased contributor to /r/cripplingalcoholism -- which appears to be an important but saddening community for people with a serious medical problem -- then followed a few links on the profile of the deceased and their associated until, a few minutes later, I ended up at /r/opiaterollcall.
