Speech is not free even in real life. If I start shouting and printing on posters that cwhiz is a neo-Nazi on a payroll, then you have the right to sue me.

Speech is defacto constrained by the law, and by social contracts (e.g. you will not go to your colleague to tell them that they are ugly).

Now if you ask me how should social media handle it? I think that it should not be their choice, because they are not accountable (aka we don’t get to vote for FB’s leadership). The elected gov. has to come up with a framework that allows for punitive action against language that is verifyiably wrong and can cause harm to other people.

If this framework is wrong, we can vote for a different gov with a better platform.
The UI is preventing the pilots from extending the landing gear and causing it to be structurally damaged. In short, the UI is trying to prevent a mistake from having consequences.
If it is decentralized, it will not have or need moderation or filtration mechanisms.

Correct, but this requires miner collusion. If just one miner says no (or isn't contactable by the colluding party) then the transaction can make it into a block.
If this ever became a practical issue, which I doubt, then censored people would only need to switch to any coin that supports stealth addresses.

Edit: I also suppose, the colluding miners could also try to mine a competing fork to censor a block. This would be rightfully called out as a 51% attack attempt, though.

Do you think it is possible that cellphone cameras are coming closer to APS-C and thus its those that end up losing out? Full frame seems to be a significant value add relative to APS-C for a prosumer, just as how medium format is a significant jump up.

Lots of things in the semantic web and RDF realm suffer from that. The technologies and ideas have been largely built under the (probably implicit) assumption that the data can be made perfect, but it never is.

I agree. The shell, just like all other programming languages, allows you to trade the time spent learning a domain specific skill for an easier method of doing things.

Using the batch operations example -- if you know shell scripting, you can save yourself time doing things manually -- but you need to have already traded in the time to learn Shell scripting.

GUIs allow you to reduce time spent learning a domain specific skill at the expense of overall efficiency.
This is a nice article, but it feels like it leaves a half of the puzzle to the table. We know by everyday experience that photons _do_ have some time- and place-varying properties: my WiFi has a perfect strength here, but absolutely zero at my friend's house 5 kms away. The photons emitted by my LED lamp are not a static field: I can switch it off by pressing a button so it's time-varying.

The article acknowledges place only in this short sentence in the end:

> This means that adding a quantum to a system has an effect that extends across the entire system. That makes it problematic to talk about the location of a photon.

But then leaves the experience gap between the model and our everyday experience totally without discussion.

The Naturalization Act of 1790 (http://rs6.loc.gov/cgi-bin/ampage?collId=llsl&fileName=001/l...) limited gaining US citizenship to "free white"s, but said nothing about entry of others.

With some exceptions (such as the Chinese Exclusion Act), national/ethnic-based restrictions for entry into the US did not come about until the Emergency Quota Act of 1921, the purpose of which was to maintain the US's ethnic balance as of the 1910 census. It had many, many exceptions (such as the skilled of any race) and exemptions (all of Latin America, for example). None of the above changed the Ellis Island restrictions I mentioned: No proof of financial support (whether of oneself of from another), no entry.

The rate Google charges for ads is inversely proportional to click-through rate, so you pay less per click if your click-through rate is higher. In the case of a company bidding to advertise on searches for that company’s own name, it means that the company can win the bid with a lower offer than competitors trying to put ads there. You could say Google is extorting Verizon to pay up to prevent competitors from stealing customers. But regardless, it’s probably a good value proposition for Verizon to participate in the auction, because
competitors would have to overpay to beat them.

Being able to explore goblin spires and human cities in adventure mode would be nice too. It's sad when you have to avoid exploring the biggest city in your world mode because taking a step takes two minutes or more. It sucks all the more because exploring things in cities in adventure mode has given some of the best roleplaying adventures i've had in a game. It just take so damn long to do anything.

Can't think of any other game i've played where the leader NPCs of a city were vampires who'd taken over the city a few hundred years ago and were at war with a church started by a human who found jewelry created by a dwarf who'd ran away after murdering a child and crafting their bones into jewelry in a fell mood that was found by a random human in the city who started a cult around it, who then took up a personal vengeance with the vampire overlords and were undergoing covert operations against them that i disrupted when I killed the fuck out of everyone, gathered the child bone jewelry and read about that shit in legends. All procedurally generated and created on the fly through the simulation of all those respective NPC's lives.
Renewables + storage. For long term storage and covering rare extended dark windless periods, the key is hydrogen, for which the cost per kWh for underground storage can be far lower than for batteries (efficiency is lower, but that's ok.)

If you go to https://model.energy/ and optimize such systems in various places, using real weather data, you find nuclear (called "Dispatchable 2" in the advanced options) get optimized to 0%. It's just too expensive. That site uses plausible cost numbers, except electrolysers are already cheaper than their target cost for 2030.

I think you're intentionally missing the point here. Sure, all business are affected by politics, but in the context of this article, none of these generally limit services based on political ideologies.
Our economy cannot currently operate without oil. Even if we replace it for energy production, we still need oil to produce other types of products.

Saying we should move towards using significantly less oil and that companies should pay for the negative externalities they cause is rational, saying oil companies should fundementally not exist is irrational.

Similarly, while I find the way that cigarette companies operate to be abhorrent (specifically they way they use international law to fight packaging and health laws), people deserve the right to smoke if they choose as well as the right to be free of abusive advertising of dangerous products.

Sure, TC has had issues (especially when it came to scaling), but they fixed a lot of those and honestly, it's doing well now.

Issues usually came from people who didn't know how to make robust pipelines or leverage TC's functionality and felt like they had to reinvent everything. And that was in a company with thousands of employees, thousands of TC configurations and hundreds of agents.
Not really. It's a stretch (at least for me) to see the connection between a window that shows you some data, or a toggle, or some arbitrary information and the idea that the window should be called "modal" as if it controls some "mode".

(Ex-Quora here) This is great to see. I left Quora over a year and a half ago, and at the time, the company believed pretty strongly in an in-person culture (in particular, having one office)—even though a bunch of employees and managers were pushing for more flexible work/location policies. I know the company had started experimenting with a little remote work pre-Covid, but it really took a forcing function to demonstrate to everyone that remote can work.

Thank you for the clarification. Now I remember reading something about an "antifa" flag, that seemed unconclusive... please, remember I'm a foreigner so my judgement may lack some insights you have.

Actually all this seems absurd. Trump is a politician, actually a public officer, so censoring his speech is a alien concept to me. In my country certain politicians IMHO deserve jail for the outrageous nonsense they say everyday, promoting hate and justifying violence.

But nobody ask newspapers or tv to stop giving them interviews or air time. In a sense Facebook or Twitter are a kind of media, so even if the messages are disgusting, they're still relevant and the public should see them... and act accordingly when the time to vote comes.

It's other politicians who should criticize that speech and put a moderate counterpoint against it. Acting against the messenger seems misguided.

Am I missing something?
Yeah, the statistics are kinda crappy.

I'm using a similar System76 laptop (Gazelle 14") with hybrid Intel/NVIDIA graphics—though running Debian, not Pop_OS!—and at least hardware acceleration works fine under both GPUs without rebooting. I'm using the primus-vk-nvidia package and a simple "pvkrun" prefix when starting a command will run it using the NVIDIA graphics card rather than the default Intel card. This passes the rendered framebuffer from the NVIDIA GPU to the Intel GPU via the Vulkan APIs, which are better suited for handling dissimilar GPUs simultaneously then the older OpenGL-based PRIMUS implementation.

As for the external displays, HDMI out seems to work on my system through the default Intel controller. I haven't tried the DisplayPort or USB-C interfaces. I do know that the proprietary NVIDIA drivers are incapable of efficiently scanning out graphics rendered on the Intel GPU using the standard Linux interface (xrandr --setprovideroutputsource). The NVIDIA driver can use outputs provided by other GPUs but won't provide its own outputs for other GPUs to use. All the guides I've seen say that if you want to output on the ports controlled by the NVIDIA card you have to make that your primary GPU, which of course impacts battery life.

Technically there are open-source drivers for NVIDIA cards (nouveau). And they do support the standard interfaces to let other GPUs control the outputs. They just aren't on par with the proprietary drivers performance-wise, and normally performance is the reason you want hybrid graphics in the first place. However, if you just to use the extra video output ports while rendering on the integrated GPU then the nouveau driver is a viable option.
>a "Wikipedia article" has a worldwide recognition and trust

For the average person, Wikipedia exists as a mix of trust and distrust, with its distrustful image preceding it.

It still carries the reputation of something you cant cite in school, that anyone can edit. The name itself is thrown around as a pejorative, even by people who behind closed doors consume it.

This is also a surprisingly hard claim to google, for sources. "wikipedia used as a pejorative -site:wikipedia.org -site:wiktionary.org -site:wikipedia.nd.ax" etc returns nothing I want.
Ooooh I love Wireguard, we'll have an article about this in the next couple of months.

We picked it because it's really simple to manage, and we wanted to ensure traffic between datacenters was always encrypted. We have a little tool called "flywire" that keeps wireguard peer configs updated from Consul. Once we accept a connection from a user, we pick a target VM, and then connect them over the wireguard mesh.

For our purposes, it basically doesn't add any noticeable latency. I think when we tested we say something on the order of 0.1ms of added latency over wireguard, but I don't quite remember. It's never been the source of latency problems when we do have them, at least!
Your "explanation" is complete nonsense. If a policy (mask wearing) is widely mandated by Socialist, Communist, Fascist, Liberal Democrats etc, then calling it 'fascist' has no value or meaning as an adjective or identifier. The reason people of intelligence come up with different terms is to differentiate between political movements.

And no, it isn't "current US policy" whatever that would mean. There's no Federal law requiring it, and many states explicitly prohibit requiring it; for example, Nebraska blocks cities and counties from receiving funds if they refuse to provide service to people who refuse masks.

And how do you know Fascists would do so for 100% ideological reasons? You have this simplistic boogeyman idea of fascism. Fascists don't want to die from COVID-19 any more than anyone else does.

The mask issue really shows both how anti-science people are, and how easy it is for people to politicize a simple method for fighting disease.

Do you object to laws preventing you from dumping your raw sewage in the street? Fascism at work!

They own Yahoo and AOL, I'm claiming this is just in-house strategy presented in a theatrical ceremony.

They also own things like HuffPost, Engadget and TechCrunch... It's no secret that Facebook has siphoned news revenue without having to actually do the hard and pricey work of journalism.

Someone probably drew a chart of all of Verizon's properties and figured out that Facebook is an expensive middleman between them.

I'm not a big fan of Verizon but they certainly do know how to run a business.

You're comparing sensible response to a shared public health issue, with an elective war for economic empire? Mainstream media also agrees that you should brush your teeth every day, but I don't attribute that to business relationships with P&G/Unilever. Continuing your argument, you're implying that invading other countries is just common sense, or at least was at the time. Maybe it seemed that way to you, but most everyone I knew was ardently against the war.

The press certainly can agree organically about things. We generally talk in terms of causality, but feedback cycles mean that things act mutually on each other - including the population being preached to (eg choosing to promote those fucking yellow ribbons). But exploring this way leads us deeper into handwaving territory, which is a lot easier to shoot down with a dismissive blunt response, as you did to my initial comment.

For the Iraq war specifically, I do agree that many journalists were likely in agreement to begin with. But the ones that were not were filtered out by management and ownership (cf Clear Channel's list of songs to censor), resulting in the unified presentation. I'm not claiming grand conspiracy, but rather emergent behavior with the net effect of squashing big-business-inconvenient narratives.

Also, I'd be thankful to anybody who leaked information that punched holes in the COVID-19 narrative. I don't think that will happen, because I think it is a very real crisis, but I would welcome being wrong. That's another huge difference between your points of comparison - COVID-19 analysis survives open discussion, while the pro-war camp relied on silencing dissent.

I'm OK with that. And it's impossible to avoid, if you're using systems with any chance of protecting your privacy. Also, criminals tend to attract lots of attention, and they're often careless, so they act as canaries.

There is the concern that you'll end up with Bitcoin that's been tainted in one way or another. However, at least some mixing services get coin from miners, so it's clean. And you can check for that in the blockchain.

That's mostly a concern when you're mixing Bitcoin before converting it to meatspace fiat. If you're anonymizing Bitcoin purchased with meatspace fiat, it doesn't matter so much if some is tainted. Or at least, it won't unless tainted coin gets blacklisted.
The War on Upstart Fiber Internet Providers
Outrage Mob Rules of Social Media Engagement:

1. Any and all views expressed in opposition those currently deemed acceptable by The Mob must be censored, and an outrage/cancel campaign may be waged against any view holders

2. In the event views are partially or mostly aligned with The Mob, but said views are misinterpreted so as to be sufficiently in opposition to The Mob (deliberately or not), Mob reserves its right to demand said views must be censored, and to wage outrage/cancel campaigns against any view holders

3. The Mob reserves the right, at any point in the future and without statute of limitation, to retroactively revoke acceptability from any currently acceptable view. In such event, The Mob also reserves the right to wage outrage/cancel campaigns against any view holder who in the past, directly or indirectly, either expressed support of, or was misinterpreted to have expressed support of, any view for which The Mob later revoked acceptability.
I don't have a facebook, so I don't know how they are advertising these days? But I know that on YouTube your ads won't show on objectionable content. Is there a similar system on facebook? Or do your ads show against all content no matter how objectionable it is? If you can't control where your ads are shown, then this boycott doesn't really surprise me.

By way of a contrived example, suppose there is content about a person who was murdered and dismembered on facebook. Well if I'm Ginsu, I'm not sure I want a ginormous ad for my knives next to that content. I wonder if facebook makes guarantees like youtube does with regard to embarrassing situations like that.
Btw. I have an impression that time- and place-local behaviour can be modelled as a collection of photons that destructively interfere "elsewhere" than where we tend to actually see light. Fourier transform seems to play a big role here.
