Coercion and fraud are not speech. More generally, verbal statements that are part of other actions, such as negotiations for a market transaction, are not speech. The whole point of "speech" is that it is just expressing the beliefs or opinions of the speaker.
Alexis de Tocqueville in his Democracy in America said it quite well:

"Democratic laws generally tend to promote the welfare of the greatest possible number; for they emanate from the majority of the citizens, who are subject to error, but who cannot have an interest opposed to their own advantage."

This is, by definition, utilitarianism (greatest amount of good, least amount of bad, and all that).

In my opinion, just the icon of that new app is by itself enough to prove my point.
That is not a problem. It's simply a fact that you'll have to accept.

Strongly disagree. If the overall contribution was close, I'd say give her name to the building but apparently it isn't. Also naming the building after her solves nothing, in fact its obvious why they did it.

Yes, I know as a black woman she had so many things against her, but so did a lot of people back then.

Indeed, I've observed that while programming seems easy, a large fraction of people find learning to program is utterly prohibitive. This includes many really smart people. And I don't think we understand why.

But here's what I think you give up if you don't have code. Over the past 70 years, one of the problems that computer science has studied is how to manage the size and complexity of programs and development teams. This complexity includes not just the program you're working on, but potentially the entire ecosystem of algorithms and solutions available for your use. Nothing comes close to "code" for addressing this problem.

As a result, I think if you're going to give up code, you have to accept that your projects will run out juice if they get too big or complex, or that you will have to solve some interface problems with manual steps. That might be perfectly OK.

Google changed it for "Mute website" when right-clicking a tab and it's not experimental.

It's better than "Mute tab" because it's persistant over multiple sessions.
I wonder if the "silent majority" is just all the people sufficiently fooled by the counterfeiting?
I'd say the truth value of any possible statement is entirely derived from context. Any possible statement could appear on a sign from nowhere in an infinite empty universe purely out of quantum fluctuations, but it would have no meaning without the context of a universe like ours. Every statement has a context in which it expresses the truth, and many others in which it is false. And people get into conflicts about the meta-issue of whose context is right.

Mach's principle is kind of an analogy I'm thinking of.
racist/classist... at that level it's the same thing.

And why is your handle a typo away from the respected MalwareBytes name? (Other than to sow confusion, of course)
>baffles atheists the most

Agnostic chiming in. People who legitimately believe in astrology and aren't just doing it for fun are irrefutably wrong. That is not an appealing belief system to me. It is quite baffling.

I think I am aware of the stereotype you're referring to - that of the "agnostic" who "isn't religious, just spiritual" (something that is similarly baffling to me). Just wanted to let you know that not all of us fit that description and I think you'd be hard-pressed to pigeonhole any one of us into a loose stereotype.
No, he is using this example; "I would imagine there are some that are used for debugging and monitoring purposes, for example."

While he knows full well that GA uses third party cookies to support their audience creation features, not "debugging and monitoring". And from the other comments it sounds like he did that on purpose because he has a vested interest in GA.

If you do not need the features of this program, then you could just use "tar | nc" for sending and "nc | tar" for receiving, I suppose.
I’m curious, how does Google Docs paste from the clipboard when I click the “paste” button from within the Google Docs UI?
When it comes to a mainstream app like Facebook or TikTok that already has network effects and a critical mass of users, people will put up with significant efforts to alleviate their fear of missing out, including sideloading the app.
Curious why posts like this get downvoted so often. Is there something I am missing? It seems like a reasonable statement, and whether you agree with it or not, it’s worded in a way to encourage discussion

No one uses 20 year old desktop hardware, unless it's somehow miraculously managed to survive (in a cupboard, ran once a month to do accounting) or it's absolute must control system for a nuclear ship (where actual hardware is replaced every 2 years, but with same old version).

Everyone else who runs XP installs it on new hardware.
The purpose of the bit you quoted is not meant to be a literal example, it's a thought experiment using a pirate stereotype/myth familiar to most readers. The history of pirates and equitable labor is interesting of course, but its factual accuracy in the example is not relevant.

It's very odd to write off a full piece based on this choice, especially so for "accuracy reasons" than rhetorical device choices.
The service is distinct, but go and log in to a GA 360 account and see for yourself that you can select users based on the pages they have seen and send that group to DoubleClick. That's done through a third party cookie that the author conveniently forgot about.

You would be surprised to learn how many small business run in these imperfect solutions.

Dryden was much more important to NASA than Armstrong was. Armstrong was lucky to be assigned Apollo 11; he was not the best test pilot (having crashed an X-15 due to his own recklessness).

It depends on how you define air conditioning. The story from the article describes different technologies from the modern AC unit: cold water and evaporative cooling.

But already the ancient egyptians used evaporative cooling for their homes.

And with an even looser definition, we might include root cellars. They are also rooms with controlled temperature and humidity, dating even further back than ancient egypt.
> I bet I could come up with an encryption scheme that allows decryption for warrant holders only, but the scheme to decrypt will be very onerous for the warrant holder and will require manual retrieval of air-gapped asymmetric keys and lengthy background checks to establish trust (i.e. is this person who they say they are and did the judge really grant a warrant, etc.).

Whilst in theory ideas like these work, they don't in practice.

When security is tightened, and oversight is made more difficult, we regularly see the players involved skirting the system because they're human and don't think that they're really doing anything wrong.

Stuxnet was a while ago, but pierced an air-gapped network through a means that... Shouldn't have been possible. It was possible because of the failure of the humans involved. A factor that can't be removed.

You would find keys being surreptitiously shared over insecure shares, and getting caught up in other data leaks. Two or more departments sharing keys between employees to save some time and effort. Or forgetting to shred a key securely once it has been accessed. It doesn't take long until everyone in the department ends up with a key - and then each of those is a weak point.

The NSA has had repeated problems with their processes being avoided and ignored by employees skirting oversight to stalk their ex's, by doing things like listening to their phone calls - which supposedly required a warrant. [0]

You can't trust the people involved.

Now, there's a very, very simple way to avoid all of these problems. Secure the data to the fewest number of people required. Placing the responsibility of keeping the keys secure with the direct stakeholders.

An end-to-end encrypted chat still has the possibility of keys being leaked. But only the people who will be directly impacted are involved. You don't need a large and complicated scheme, and it is dead simple to implement, comparatively. You only have to trust the people involved, not swathes of departments.

Aren't they just checking with an UTI? So for example a package tracking app can't ask if it contains strings matching patterns describing common package tracking code formats?
> Not so for a black child. There is a very real possibility that their being black will make it harder for them to become an engineer.

There's also the very clear benefit of affirmative action that makes it easier to become an engineer, preferential treatment at top schools etc.

While a white child, and even more so an Asian one, might look at laws and statistics and Harvard and realize that, indeed, it is provably harder for them to become an engineer.

Have you read about Zuckerberg’s personal security? It’s nuts. He’s probably second only to the president in terms of security.

I understand the motivations behind deleting Facebook and Instagram, but switching messaging platforms is really not as easy as how the article made it look like.

When most people in your circle are on WhatsApp, you're tied to it as well. Sometimes even your bosses and colleagues need to reach you with that. Also if you just delete the account for Telegram there's less motivation for friends to reach you to just catch up because they don't use Telegram. Sure your best friends and family will reach you through whatever platform but that's about it. You lose friends. Some are ok with that but others should be aware of what switching messaging platforms costs.
Removing Facebook from my life was the best thing I’ve ever done and I don’t feel I miss anything. Also, will never use any app or service that requires a social account.

Facebook was very easy to get reed of in fact. IG I was hesitant, since I like photography. It was obvious though quickly after it was bought that it had quickly become a narcissistic sewage and nothing to do with photography.
I have disliked perl since I first started using it because it clear it's a hack with hack upon hack of fixes to try to wallpaper over how bad it is.

For example, IIRC it's pretty clear it used to be all variables were global. The solution was a manual command to push a variable onto the stack. That's a horrible solution as it requires perfection everywhere.

Another is all the special meaning but global variables like $_, $. $/ $, $\ $" $; $: $# etc etc.

Any one with any engineering experience learns quick that features like that are an anti-pattern. They're super fragile. Some lines of code down stream are expecting one of those variables to have a certain value. A simple edit somewhere can break it all.

The only languages worse are sh and dos batch files.
They did feel the need to implement copy & paste a year or two later, so something seems off here.

We don’t have to choose between Ayn Rand and George Orwell here. There are plenty of things FB can do to regulate the flow of information. A couple basic ideas are to apply the libel standard and to ensure the news feed isn’t full of hyperbolic echo chamber garbage. Stuff mainstream media outlets have been doing for decades, and has been effective.

I feel like you’re not discussing in good faith; please try and be sympathetic to the idea that Facebook’s pursuit of ad revenue has an outsized negative effect on our society. You act as though nothing is wrong and any regulation we apply would be completely illiberal. Neither is true.

When this nonsense stop?

It was funny at the beginning but it's not any longer.
If by problem you mean end of laziness then sure. You can no longer drag and drop FB or google analytics SDK into your project, type in a few lines of glue code, email the product owner that you have added tracking capability into the app and head down to the pub to spend some of that well earned six figure developer salary.

Now I am gleeful about this because it's win-win for me as a consumer and software engineer. Better privacy and use of my data as a consumer. More $$ work as an engineer when all those analytic pipelines need to be re-architected and rebuilt.
Catalyst was painful to work with in my experience. Just getting it setup was an achievement. Subroutine signatures as routes is an ugly hack.
I had given up on the series since he started publishing prequels like Fire and Blood, but now, I am hopeful that he'll finish the book.

He had been busy with the TV series and other things. With the pandemic raging, I don't think he'll be super busy with Hollywood.

Also, this might be an unpopular opinion, but I am grateful that he did not complete his series. Hear me out first!

When I first read The Game of Thrones, it was an ebook. I immediately bought the paperback set, only to realise a few months later that the series is not complete. (yes, I never google because ages ago, I was reading a Dan Brown book, and I accidentally ruined it for me by reading out what happens in the end).

After finishing the last book, I was stunned. No, I have read LoTR, but ASOIAF was unlike anything I have ever read, including the Mahabharata (which, is much more complex and originally written as Sanskrit verses).

But, that gave me motivation to finally start writing novels. I am not a famous author just yet. I have been writing consistently for the last six years, and I have published only one short story on Kindle a few weeks ago.

I find that GRRM has encouraged a lot of writers to write. The first thing I did when I started to write was to read his advice for new authors and it was great. His #1 advice is 'stop writing in my universe or Star wars universe of JRR's universe. Creating characters and world building is a significant part of story telling and you will not be an author until you do so. otherwise you are just writing fan fiction'

That month, I wrote my first short story. Then my first short film script which won the silver script award in India Film Project 2007.

Since then, I have written four full length novels. I am currently working on my fifth novel.

And all this has been because GoT's next book isn't coming out and I was so frustrated about that, that I started writing my own novels. (I know it does not sound logic, but that's how I felt. Damn it, I'm writing my own novels!)
Did you respond to the wrong comment? I don’t believe I implied anything close to what you just said.
That is knowledge reuse. Its hardly applicable with bigger project where the knowledge is spread across teams or even lost, then we have things like NIH or big-rewrites.

You say it’s absurd, but don’t give any reasons why the negatives outweighs the benefits. They don’t, so I can see how this is remotely abused.

Is this really news? Google maps suggests to navigate to an address you copied to the clipboard. No app should have permissions to access the clipboard without you explicitly selecting 'paste'
You don't have to tell me. I was looking for sources of misunderstanding. In a multifamily structure, at 50 F, in my experience, heat through shared walls probably keeps you reasonably warm without any heat of your own.
You would prefer that, after being beaten up, they were also arrested and convicted of spreading "gay propaganda"?

You are intentionally conflating homophobic violence with 1st amendment protections, to make it seem like they didn't have the latter. Please debate more honestly in the future.
hahaha. Such people have an elitist attitude of fundamentalists. They think only Oxford dons should write novels. Who are you to write a sci fi book when GRRM is writing one? How dare you?

One such person had said to me a long time back that "you'll never write something like this". I was like, "you don't know me and never say never. Just because you lack the ability to write something down doesn't mean the rest of the world does, too."

Is there an idiot-proof way to set up a Windows 10 VM with good performance these days?

I play computer games. Because maybe 30% or so of the games I play work badly or terribly in Linux (anything from screen tear to crashing on startup) I have a licensed copy of Windows 10. I tried setting up a KVM / QEMU-based VM with GPU passthrough, but apparently Windows detected it because it locked up (somehow, I don't remember the details) after I entered the license key, and I ended up having to dual-boot.
It's not that easy. Take into consideration spreading of sensors like light/water/gas/sewerage meters, which report measurements to a central SCADA. I touched that around a decade ago, I had to build link with the meters with AT commands through GSM with modbus protocol on top of that.

These days it's a grown-ass market with competition and much more advanced toys involved. You turn on water, they know timings and how much you used. You use more electricity, they call you to suggest a different plan. You used drugs and flushed, they find metabolites in sewerage sensors (I heard that on news, dunno maybe bs).

So I think it's basically about bills; cameras in toilets are different market.
> Silencing dissenting views has never worked in history

There may be a grain of truth to that, but I don't think a historian, even one who agreed with its thrust, would feel comfortable with it as a blanket statement.

I don't really want to have this sort of heated debate this evening. Sorry.
Makes sense though when you think of the each city, and county, and state are required to report their numbers daily and those numbers can be accessible to the public. Factor in that every news station is constantly updating the numbers, The probability that a story would pop up on google with “any three numbers followed by new cases” is quite high. You factor in Our population too. Yeah, it actually makes sense to me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I’m reminding of the “stay-behind” teams from the Cold War.

NATO was afraid of a Soviet invasion. They knew in a ground war, the Soviets would take several countries.

So countries created “stay-behind” teams to coordinate resistance in the aftermath of an occupation.

The problem is these teams had nothing to do. So they “made themselves busy” by bothering domestic groups they thought were pro-communist.

It was a big problem in Italy.

These guys have titles like “Director of Global Resilience.” Their job is to keep operations up and running in a catastrophe.

But there was no catastrophe (yet). So they kept themselves busy.
Then those Asian and Middle Eastern countries are welcome to put up statues for those people. Nobody is stopping them.

Would you like to give an example to back up your claim though? There is no statue in the US celebrating somebody for discovering the number zero, or gunpowder, or paper, or anything else I can think of that was brought over to the West.

If you're saying we should never celebrate anybody that builds on the achievements of others, well then we shouldn't celebrate anything in science at all. All discovery and progress builds on the work of those that came before us.
And if if ever gets discontinued you lose everything you might have ever built forever.
Please point out the racism in the comment you're talking about.
I have this same problem and would describe it similarly.
Corpus Christi is a good recent one I loved.

I agree what the police did in this situation is egregious. The cops were clearly overreacting. But, that doesn't merit the BLM claim that cops are the enemy of the black and hispanic community. Rather than disband the force, BLM should push to have minorities join up themselves, along with better accountability. Despite their well publicized missteps, cops do much more good than harm for minorities. E.g. in Baltimore near where I live murders have jumped significantly since the police draw down after the 2015 riot. I suspect most of those murdered are themselves minorities, and would still be alive if police were better supported.
Reading from the clipboard is allowed on a user-triggered event.

It's somewhat similar to how Firefox has disallowed auto-playing videos except on user permission or a user-triggered event.

Which has been mostly worked around by the bad actors, who use things like mouse-over or scroll to trigger the event.
their point is that you can choose to have "pure" android or "unpure" - which is not an option apple provides. why is that worse?
