I want to apologize for this thread. I can't reply to my own comment or edit it now, so I'm replying to your comment which was a reasonable reply. I realize probably nobody will read this old thread, but I wanted to write this as a way to think through what I could have done better.

On complex topics is when it's most important to be clear about a point, rather than just throwing out a few data points and simplistic conclusions.

My point was that misplaced fear (e.g. not supported by data) has its own risks, and fear is probably not the right emotion for injustice anyway (anger makes more sense). The point may be right or wrong when the totality of the data is examined.

On HN, this could have been a productive discussion but my comment was a distraction. Next time I'll ask a question instead.
Hasn't black nationalism been essentially dead since the Black Panther party collapsed? You talk about as if it were as immediately dangerous as white nationalism, but I'm not sure it is.
I am not here to do any defending of anyone, but as some people are able to defend themselves as (often rightfully) with "it was taken out of context". Yet every time I have heard anything with molyneux it has seemed to me exactly the opposite. Very few things taken out of context seem very bad. As a whole, on the other hand, I always got the impression he is bat-shit insane. Does he mention white genocide? I doubt it. Does he paint a picture of the world where white genocide is reality ? Well, I would say yes.

If a community widely upvotes low effort memes then that’s what the community wants to see. The people have spoken! Why do you think you know what’s better for them?

“Hate speech” is a buzzword that doesn’t mean anything. What is hate speech? No one knows.
Polite white nationalism is still white nationalism.
> Orwell coined the term "doublethink" to describe two contradictory concepts held simultaneously. Something like this:
> >Consequences may include social sanctions and violent reactions.
> >exercise your right to free speech (which is your right)

This is a false assessment. The fundamental government-blind right to speech does not include a right to group inclusion. There's nothing contradictory about you having the right to speak while other people also have the right to sanction you for spreading hateful (or in this case sophistrous) bullshit. After all, social sanctions are also a form of speech.

This comes up in all kinds of ways. It's not contradictory to have moral rules against violence while also allowing self defense or group defense. It's not contradictory to have moral rules against stealing while also allowing recovery of stolen property or government redistribution of wealth as a requirement for participation in the benefits of society. And it's not contradictory to have moral rules in favor of speech and against hate while also allowing the community to punch a nazi in the face for being a nazi.
"Apparently they're going to ban a large number of subs on Monday and frame it as an anti-racism initiative"

Frame it? It is an anti-racism initiative. It may have side effects as well but that is the main driver.
A) going to disagree pretty hard there being a conspiracy to reduce white birthrates

B) Pretty sure the Iraqi people could figure out how to run a just government. I think the history of Iraq being a colonial holding by much more powerful governments for a while has more to do with it.

So yea, both claims are false.

EDIT:
Getting some downvotes and not a single reply providing an argument for either claim.
We should maintain some degree of pressure against ignorance.

Sometimes that means correct people using a word incorrectly, because that might educate them about something they didn't know.

Sometimes though that means educating people about how languages evolve and that the ship has sailed for some expressions.
>Always consult a lawyer.

Obligatory, I am not a tax lawyer. My, laymen, understanding of VAT is that it is the companies responsibility to pay 100% of the VAT. You can "pass" some, all, or none of it on to your consumers. You can show them on their receipts that you are charging them VAT, or not. This is fundamentally different from a sales tax, where the one purchasing the product must pay the sales tax at the point of sale. You are legally responsible for recording your sales and paying the VAT on them, but as far as I know you don't have to tell/show your consumers what, if any, of they payment goes to VAT (but you CAN of course).

I am just some random internet person, so I would suggest, as the other commenter did, to check with a tax lawyer.
>The quality of the content will be abysmal.

Granted I haven't been there in years but the content on the chans isn't much worse than Reddit once you've been there long enough that your brain stops registering the "nig" prefix and "fag" postfix they slap on every other word. Any place that is open to cross-polination from internet riff-raff from other niches is going to devolve toward a very low lowest common denominator (which is why HN is mostly unscathed).
Trans people were the subject of a great many, if not most of the posts on GC for the past few months I've paid attention to the sub. GC is a radical feminist hangout, as in SCUM Manifesto "men are the root of all evil and must be exterminated to liberate women"-flavor radical feminism, which lends itself to trans exclusion quite easily since you just have to view trans women as men for them to become evil fetishizers who want to become women for their own pleasure (this also allows them to pity trans men since they become women who were tricked into becoming a man for social reasons instead of acknowledging that gender dysphoria is real).

Trans stuff was certainly not the only thing they talked about, but it was the most common, and trans posts tended to have the most discussion.
Interesting speculation. On the other hand, there is an association between strongly opposing principles of free markets and problematic ethics.

Libertarianism literally started on the very far left - an anarcho-communist named Joseph Dejacque. Right libertarianism is about a century younger, and the main distinction is view on property rights, which left libertarians tend to see as oppressive government overreach. (Dejacque enthusiastically supported Proudhons famous 'property is theft')

Yet youtube is filled with Marxist and socialist material. Major news networks talked about UBI during the Democrat primaries. We’re talking about what information is available in the US, not which policies have a chance in the current popular opinion.
Yea wow, I don't moderate r/askhistorians but rather a different sub, and we sometimes pride ourselves on keeping this relatively clean. But then I stumble across r/askhistorians again and remember that no, no we don't have things under control by comparison.

We can barely keep a lid on the vitriol and toxicity, and some of the more blatantly false/scammy advice. r/askhistorians is a whole 'nother level.

Sometimes I honestly wish hackernews was run more like r/askhistorians. Too many people here on hn talk a lot of shit on stuff they don't really know much about beyond a cursory understanding (I'm probably guilty myself).
Thats a great trick just label anything you don't want debated a "right."

From the article is an outright lie, that simply flat out never happened.

If this is what "the people" are demanding, this should be taken as evidence that "the people" are to put it bluntly, fucking retarded.

But that is no great surprise by this point in time of course.
I agree that "shootouts" is the wrong word, but "melee" doesn't quite capture the gruesomeness of human beings beating each other to death with spiked clubs.
>> Plus, the battery pack created during the research was 50 percent smaller than a conventional lithium-ion battery.

From listing to some of the director/producers commentary on episodic tv there is a lot of prep work that goes into a show and then you have 7 days to shoot the episode.

So you cant really change that much week to week.

The public square is owned by private companies and they're enforcing anti-first amendment principles. One can't even argue that these banned people can move to another platform if they're all coordinating.

Leftist extremists are effecting public banishment of their rightist extremist opponents.

It wouldn't be as bad if leftist extremists were getting banned at the same time. The problem is that leftist extremists have bullied the mainstream left into extreme action.
Well. We had several ideological purges earlier in 20th century, and I can tell what will happen next:

I don't know about that. Twitter didn't ban Molyneux and I've not seen people branding Twitter as "The platform that permits Molyneux". (Until me, just now)
Time is linear except when you watch water waiting it to boil.
I want the reverse of this. I live in the South in the states, so the summers are miserable, and my roommates like it warm (like 75+), but I want to sleep cold and I just sleep so much better that way. I wish there was a way to get the opposite effect efficiently somehow.

Sadly, fans just don't do it for me as the noise bothers me; I don't like much white noise when I'm sleeping.
Both kinda sound pretty undemocratic though, so there’s some merit to the claim.
Fair, but is the distinction actually important in this case? It seems to me to be more of a means of obfuscating/derailing the discussion of Molyneux's views.

SCOTUS uses it regularly to create inventive decisions that defy common sense.

Is it absurd chromium browsers to have a blacklist of hate sites to which it refuses to connect? It is google driven project. Private property.

So yes - if you claim that you are lead by consistent rule based framework - finding the most extreme edge case makes sense (not saying that it makes good policy though)

But declaring the digital monopolists as public fora is a good idea. California already does it with the private property of the malls. The public discourse is where the people are. No one should be forced to listen to you, but if person A wants to hear what person B wants to say - the platform C should have no right to interfere, just because they are medium.

If you are platform - you should be dumb pipe should be valid on all levels of the osi model.
It is absolutely about legalities. Look at the complaints that are made when defending this type of content. The call it cancel culture in an attempt to victimize the aggressors as being unduly treated because of their opinion. The boycott has always been a tool to defend civility and putting your money where you're values are. Calling it 'Cancel Culture' is just a new phrase to delegitimize the right of people to stand up for civil discourse and to respond to tyranny with their wallets.

If we look at history and the Left then censorship also goes hand in hand with it.

The common factor is authoritarianism. Zizek makes a difference in that the left always consider the offender as just brainwashed and potentially redeemable (hence, siberia work prisons) versus the right as irredeemable and non human (hence, death camps).

This is basically my position. I have a hard time convincing others of it because of the reputation, though. It’s been an invaluable space for me in learning from people like you posting and I have no doubt that I have gained a significant amount of social savvy and also technological sophistication in using the site. I have trouble thinking of specific ways that it could be improved, specifically because of what you mention.
They did not ban racist subreddits like /r/blackpeopletwitter and /r/fragilewhiteredditor.

If you don't know, to post on /r/blackpeopletwitter you have to send a photo of your skin color to the moderators. They are literally racially segregating users.

A package depending on itself is just an accident (and probably something npm ought to detect on publish and reject, but alas...)

However, I believe a 1-package circular dependency is often the result of a developer mistakenly adding a package as a dependency when they mean to add it to `peerDepedencies`:

e.g. in TFA: "babel-core depends on babel-register, which depends on babel-core... yeoman-generator depends on yeoman-environment which depends on yeoman-generator."

Peer dependencies, of course, no longer exist because it got deprecated because raisins.

Which leaves us with zero options to define sideways dependencies.
Using GDP to measure Russian significance is like trying to measure American significance by counting the number of hotdogs consumed - it doesn't matter. Results are what matters.

For the amount that Russia spends on its military, it is able to project exponentially more force globally - it is #2 in the world, period. Meanwhile the the New York Times described the F-35 as "America's Dysfunctional Trillion-Dollar Fighter-Jet Program". Trillions spent on a jet with questionable fighting capabilities. American military leaders themselves don't trust the plane.
Yeah, I've been making my own! I just have it black, though – no milk or sugar. It's just something nice to sip on in the morning without having to wait for it to cool. I might try adding vanilla or something to it to switch things up a bit.
C++ build times get high only if you start messing with the type system and ask for it to be recompiled every single time again and again.

Rust is slower overall, which is why people tend to complain. And if you start messing around like in C++, then you get even crazier times.

But in neither case it is a dealbreaker compared to other languages. Go proponents claim compilation speed is everything, which is suspicious. I do not need to run my code immediately if I am programming in C++ or Rust. And if I am really doing something that requires interactivity, I should be doing it another way, not recompiling every time...

> The only two political parties in the US, for instance, differ remarkably little in terms of foreign policy and labor rights.

Before Trump, I would probably have agreed with you, but these days, I don't know how you can say that. Trump has made major breaks with the foreign policy establishment over the past 3 years, and continues to do so (pulling half of our troops out of Germany is a good example of this). On labor rights, the two parties have been far apart for years. The GOP has intentionally and willfully attacked and degraded the National Labor Relations Board, allowing it to lose quorum and be sidelined.

If you broaden the policy proposals to health care, the parties are even further apart, with one party advocating for single-payer state funded health care, and the other advocating for the immediate elimination of subsidized health care for over 10 million people.

There may have be some issues where there is a general consensus between the parties, but there are plenty of very important issues where the parties are far, far apart.
Someone doesn’t understand the terms “election interference” or “monopolists”.
Typesafe DynamoDB in Kotlin
The specification describes what implementations should do to be interoperable. As opposed to what someone wishes implementations were doing but has no hope of convincing them to do, which was the major change with HTML 5.

But the fact that there are multiple implementations remains. and it remains a goal that one should be able to create a _new_ implementation by implementing the spec. Notably, this goal was not achievable with the pre-HTML-5 specification.

In the specific case of WebSQL, if someone were to actually create a specification for it that didn't boil down to "run this exact version of SQLite and pass things on to it", that would have allowed for the "possible to create an implementation from the spec" goal to be achieved. But no one ever stepped up to do that.
"Your regex engine uses a slow regex matching algorithm. This is the case for the regex engines built into most programming language runtimes — this includes Java, JavaScript (various flavors) and Node.js, C#/.NET, Ruby, Python, Perl, and PHP. On the safe side, Go and Rust both use fast regex engines, and Google’s RE2 library is fast as well."

I don't feel like "slow" and "fast" are the right adjectives here. Perhaps some form of "backtracking capable" instead of "slow".

Edit: For example, the jit version of pcre2 is often faster than Rust's re engine. But it still supports backtracking and can be "dos-ed".
