Why would you ever want a PWA when a native version exists?

And "heavy client" is a fallacy. Operating systems come with runtimes too. Very complex native app can be very small in size if it uses the native controls and APIs. They can be KB in size. Any asset is going to be bigger than the binary itself.

The web-as-native apps are the ones that are huge, because they embed a behemoth (a browser) which is akin to an entire operating system.
Native apps are not handling my bank account passwords. They're also not collecting data about my consumer behavior with the goal of displaying more ads. This is a big difference.
Given that humans were prey for vampires, the variables selected by the captain showed faces in different states of anguish, which the predator was well-equipped to detect. So it is even creepier.
I believe Apple asks for permission after major OS updates.
I'm an iPhone user and I actually want an Android for privacy reasons.

Safari on iOS is inferior to Firefox with uBlock Origin and Privacy Badger.

Also Safari might have content blockers (inferior, but better than nothing), however iOS apps don't open links in Safari but in their own web view. This is mostly a cultural thing, but due to Android's tighter integration (eg back button) Android apps at least admit opening in the external browser as an option.

Example of apps that can open links on the external default browser on Android, but not on iOS: Facebook, Twitter, Gmail.

Android also supports web push notifications, making it possible to use some services from the browser, which is a far better sandbox. Firefox supports creating web app shortcuts, running full screen and with notifications, but with uBlock Origin powered content blocking in the background.

Why is this important? Have you seen the apps that share data with Facebook about you via their SDK? Go ahead, you might have a revelation about how privacy friendly your iOS device actually is:

https://www.facebook.com/off_facebook_activity

I could avoid this crap on Android, but I can't on iOS unless I block the Facebook.com domain entirely at the DNS level, which I did, but it's not very practical if I'd need Facebook too.

iOS has some pretty cool privacy features, but it is also defective by design and this keeps it from being a good option for protecting the privacy of power users.
Your comment is pretty alarmist, but I don't find the probability of this article (or Chernoff faces in general) having a negative impact on racial relations very high. Maybe you can convince me otherwise, but I think it's just an interesting, if not very useful, way to display data. I'll leave it up to you to come up with a compelling (plausible) scenario in which this negatively impacts anyone.

Yeah, Reddit didn't have Chinese investors in 2012: https://i.redd.it/jp4a0opvf1o41.png
No, they send 'envoys' to other social media sites to argue with and harass those who speak up against them anywhere on the Internet. Think "flash mob" crossed with "sealioning^", and look to Gamergate for being first to that particular line. For example, there's a lot of green accounts posting comments here about where to find their new community.

TLDR; Bought a Remi custom night guard online and finally can wake up feeling good

Hey! First I want to thank you for posing the question and I would love to share my experiences with this. Early on during quarantine, I began having a hard time getting through the night. Oftentimes I’d wake up with severe headaches and pain in my jaw, which a late-night google binge taught me are both prominent symptoms of Bruxism.

I found this new sleep & wellness company called Remi (www.shopremi.com) that makes custom night-guards for individuals who struggle with Bruxism. I ordered my night-guard and the entire process was super easy all taking places at home. Remi sent me an “impressions kit”, a do-it-yourself version to make a mold of my teeth. From it, they created my night guard and sent it back to me.

I've been using my night-guard for about a month or so now and I couldn't be happier with the results. I can finally sleep well at night and wake up feeling refreshed.
There's already multiple clones of that subreddit, and there will be many more created, and they'll all be allowed to thrive.
> Reddit is still very much anti censorship.

This is just not true. They are very transparently trying to kick off users/communities that they don't "like".

For example basically any subreddit associated with the "alt right", except I believe /r/DebateTheAltRight or whatever it's called.

It's very simple:

(1) Identify community that you don't like, generally due to association with anti-leftist political views

(2) Find an instance of a threat of violence, regardless of context (i.e. the threat coming from someone who isn't a "real" community member)

(3) Use (2) to have a justified reason for "quarantining" the community, which is just the first step in a long, slow death-squeeze. From my understanding, those at /r/The_Donald saw the obvious writing on the wall and thus migrated to the donald.win quite some time ago.
The mods were put in place by the admins so effectively it's Reddit doing it.
You want to examine the individual subscores to make sure it's not just hardware acceleration but it's generally as good a measure as any other, at least with version 5. There were previous versions that had different working set sizes for different platforms and that was a major source of error.

EDIT: In the end the only really good benchmark is your particular workload run on the processor. Everything else is just evidence towards what that'll be.

You couldn't get away with charging a subscription fee there, and I don't think you're significantly eating into the 20+min streaming market.

You could possibly pull off more premium ad rates, though... but you could really only do this from inside Google.
Perhaps they are consistent in only acting based on convenience, and they might finally have reached the inflection point where doing all this was the easiest, laziest thing they could do.
It was a very common opinion amongst the startup crowd at that time.

Now I would hear stories about MIT, and be impressed, but many schools had very out dated programs.

Breadboards were cool, but I wanted to learn software.

Assembly was neat, made me a better programmer. I’ve Never once used it.

Whole series of interesting but not practical skills. I ended up running school newspaper. That was super useful for getting career launched.

Great, I hope r/politics is next.
And then they can start censoring anti-semitic far-leftists.
So the rumors about today were right. But this should not be the headline - TD was shut down many many months ago, despite people clinging to technicalities that it was not the case.
Well, if you had any doubt about the character of TD and what it has become at its new home, just cruise around it. It’s full of conspiracy theories, misogyny, racism, and outright calls to violence. It is a common sentiment there that the only good Democrat is a dead one. These “edgy” takes receive many upvotes.
Just because they're standards doesn't mean they aren't standards written and promoted chiefly by Google. Mozilla also has pushed back on some of them, despite the fact that... Mozilla supporting them isn't a good argument since most of their revenue also comes from, you guessed it: Google.
Consent is important here.
I see what you're saying but it's not quite the analogy you're looking for in Net Neutrality.

In shipping, they have to charge you a different rate for packages than they do mail (i.e weight) or else it won't work.

With data, it'd be nary impossible to clear prices for such services. With mail, it's entirely possible.

There is basically no reason that China Post can't charge their customers a rate to get something to the US, and then another rate by the US Post to get to final destination.

Because shipping involves real labour and money, it's like any other service, it should be priced normally.

If the postal union was not borne 150 years ago with this odd kind of arrangement, nobody would suggest it today. It needs to go.
How is that different from what we have now?

Living specs don't give any guarantees, yet they still "pave the cow paths" while keeping ridiculous bugs and behaviours for backwards compatibility, and breaking existing specs for convenience. It all depends on the person dealing with the problem.

Nobody expects compatibility with existing specs, why should they for WebSQL? Especially when it's a living standard.

If those things were true, we would all use the same browser by now and never see new standards, and Blink and Webkit would have never diverged from another.

Open source quarrels basically guarantee a steady supply of competing forks.
> Dina Nurdbay

>>camp which separated married and unmarried women. The married women were given pregnancy tests, Nurdybay recalled, and forced to have IUDs installed if they had children

> Her interview with Bitterwinter 4 months ago, zero mention of any "family planning", mostly how CCP is messing with her finances.

I assume you mean this article? https://bitterwinter.org/crackdown-on-ethnic-kazakhs-continu...

I don't think those are necessarily contradictory. That article glosses over a lot with "Dina went into horrific details about tortures in the camps, about blackmailing and threats if she didn’t obey the severe CCP rules." and it's possible that "The married women were given pregnancy tests and forced to have IUDs installed if they had children" was one of those details.

In both articles it's mentioned that she was not yet married at the time, so her information about IUDs isn't first-hand. Maybe she heard it from the woman who shared her cell?

It wouldn't be surprising if some inaccuracies were introduced in the process of retelling and translating the story. E.g. it might have applied to only those women who had more children than allowed, in which case it would be sad but also nothing new.

I definitely agree it's hard to tell what the scope of the problem is if articles get written by picking a topic and then collecting a handful of statements by people who mentioned it once, even if they were more concerned with something else.
Fully agreed. I think people get up in arms over "but they have the rights to do it", making it look like those opposing decisions of admins believe that admins don't have those rights.

Admins own the platform and they totally have the right to set whatever rules they want. No one is debating that. The thing that people point out is that despite admins having those rights, they might be exercising those rights in a way that people disagree with (for whatever reasons), which might ultimately lead to the demise of that platform.

I, personally, find your reasons against the ham-fisted approach they have been taking to be very compelling. While r/The_Donald ban was probably warranted, and I have nothing against that ban, the overall vibe of reddit definitely feels like it has changed over the past 10 years. It feels like it went from "user-driven content under the umbrella of basic global reddit rules" to "heavily-directed content that admins seem to approve of or content that they cannot justify getting rid of just yet (but probably will soon enough)".
When ideas and opinions are heavily correlated, it's a sign of unhealthy coordination and lack of democracy. Voter turnover is not enough, you also need informed decisionmaking and true representation.
The_Donald was neutered a long time ago. The real story is the 200 other subs getting shut down and Reddit essentially saying the wild west days on their site are actually over now. Several publications have focused on The_Donald at least in the headline because I assume it makes for a sexier, more political story than about a website cracking down on moderation.
> from any subreddit that toes their party line

There's plenty of right-leaning subreddits. What set The_Donald apart was how close it sailed to being outright cultishly crazy.
There is a right way to do this which minimizes the issues, but it's counter-intuitive: reflect the negative aspects of The_Donald.

It's called "closed loop hypocrisy" and the theory is that all negativity or opposition is inherently hypocritical (given we are all very similar in the end). But being hypocritical does not mean opposition is bad, if anything the issue is long loop hypocrisy where someone pretends to be righteous when really it's just hypocrisy with extra steps.

Most people solve problems with long loop hypocrisy and those who support them can easily choose to overlook the hypocrisy by focusing on the convoluted steps and rhetoric in between. Meanwhile, it's obvious to those being attacked just how hypocritical they are.

In contrast, closed loop hypocrisy is about applying the form of negativity to itself. It seems kind of dumb, but that's the point: to show how dumb X form of negativity is directly to X form of negativity.

It's a form of inception and it's hard to pull off, but there is a better way.
I am a member of several non-conservative political and non-political groups that were banned because of the bad behavior of members of those subreddits.

Users of The_Donald regularly got away with behavior that got other communities wiped off of Reddit entirely.
Err... opt-in by default isn't opt-in. That is on by default with an opt-out.

Thanks, but that defeats the point. If I’m at home, I’d rather watch a proper 30-60 minute show.
That doesn't make it any less of a solid foundation for a web SQl engine.

It's like getting gifted a car, and complaining that you'd rather have winter tires. So you start building one from raw metals.
Oh, I agree, I really would like to get better at math. I find usually this stuff makes sense for me after it's percolated for a while and I eventually find an application for it that I like, and _then_ it gets exciting and easy to sort through. (Which is perfectly normal, but I suppose I just don't have the patience for the first stage there, where the subject is more abstract). Indeed, Wolfram Alpha is awesome for working through problems. Perhaps having a book on the side for when I cross paths with discrete math stuff would help to connect the dots faster. Was there one that worked particularly well for you?
Where do you work because this categorically does not happen to any appreciable degree in small to medium sized companies in London.

Also I would kill for a product owner role. The idea that a programmer can get into a PO role is laughable. I've never seen even the glimmer of a chance of that happening to either myself or my peers.
T_D wasn't banned because it was inactive. spez's post says, "All communities on Reddit must abide by our content policy in good faith. We banned r/The_Donald because it has not done so, despite every opportunity." They weren't banned for political ideology, they were banned for doxxing, fear mongering, and generally being a community full of toxic posts. That's the reason it was banned, and good riddance.
Throwing Hitler out as a boogie man does not nullify the entire legal system of our country or the intellectual tradition behind it. Yes Hitler would have had free speech too although most of what is viewed as problematic by Hitler would have been considered violent hate speech in our current legal system and would still not be allowed.

As a jew, I support free speech for hypothetical Hitler. Stop using these lazy arguments.
This resonates with my experience moderating a local facebook group.

I get attacked and threatened by racist instigators and BLM supporters alike because people feel that any moderation against them is solidarity with the other side. I point to the group rules violated and they still assume bias on my part. I AM biased (in favor of BLM) but still get treated like crap when I'm doing my best to moderate fairly, for free, in my spare time, for the benefit of the people treating me like crap.
Everytime I saw a news article about the_Donald being an irredeemable den of vitriol and hate--and I actually went to check it out to see if the claims were true--all the top posts were just mildly edgy memes, over-the-top bragging about presidential accomplishments, and some conspiratorial claims which seemed repeated half ironically. Could it be that you're just much more easily offended than other people?
You know mediamatters wrote that article before Reddit took action right? Reddit used that article as the justification for something they clearly wanted.

It was the Oregon GOP rep that said [If you send the police to get us, send bachelors].

I think it’s a little more complicated than you make it out to be.

It’s a larger discussion of what can mods with a large subreddit be responsible for. Is it reasonable to assume that in a sub that is typically pro police that some users that posted comments get the sub shut down? If that is the standard, can we prove mediamatters didn’t make those posts to point to for effect?

Maybe you are right; but mediamatters is BEYOND extreme bias so let’s not use them as an authority, and there is clearly hypocrisy at Reddit if threats against police “were” a problem.
This is very true and one of the main problems of our field that needs to be addressed ASAP.
Agreed about access to low-level hardware etc.

For learning clustering, I'm personally unsure: Yes, those setups give you a cluster of machines, but wouldn't a cluster of VMs on a physical host give you more flexibility in trying different machine sizes, network performance, ...? Or is that too complicated and gets in the way? I do not know.
It also does well enough on Spec to make that plausible. Though the processor on a MacBook is has a clockrate much slower than the design sweet spot. If Intel had targeted 1.1 GHz operation for their Core processors they'd have much shorter pipelines and cache latencies.

They didn't ban Trump, nor did they ban all subreddits about Trump. They banned a single subreddit which repeatedly violates reddit rules and refuses to moderate according the rules.
> because the tone of the internet seems to have shifted slightly.

Over the time I've used it (94 to 2020) it's shifted radically, it used to be kooky, niche, fun or just weird (and it is still that on the edges) but by and large rarely mean/cruel, the main sites are just a torrent of bile spouted by morons venting their spleen at the universe.

Comment sections on any news article, youtube videos - pretty much everywhere outside of heavily moderated forums and the like are vile.

It's one of the reasons I visit a few heavily moderated subject specific sub-reddits, this place and IRC and ignore literally everything else (I have comment sections nuked in ublock origin).

I respect anyone who voluntarily wades through that crap honestly.

I do moderate https://old.reddit.com/r/realminimalism/ but no-one has ever gotten the joke.
> I don't think people want that. The_Donald involved a lot of spreading their message / fake news sites / spamming across other subs and etc.

> Do people want to be on a platform where other folks on the same platform are targeting their community with dishonest and often bigoted content?

No, but I think people want equal, consistent, and predictable enforcement. Notably, lots of other communities are allowed to exist despite having much more and more overt bigotry including celebrations of political violence and even concerted attempts to slander people and get them fired or harassed. The difference is the groups they target and the transparently BS justifications for targeting them ("well actually, racism doesn't mean 'hating a person or group because of their race'" or something like that).
Is there something similar for their finances as well? To make sure they dont get scammed, pay a ridiculous price for a product, etc?
Free speech is not a god given right to spread hate, misinformation, antisemitism, misogyny, etc - And yes: Not confronting people who threaten the very basics of our democracy (respecting human rights and the dignity of our fellow citizens) will help those dark forces rise to the power. The nazis have been elected to power in the Weimar Republic.

I would like to use lambdas instead of classes, but can’t, due to that defect of C++.

> In commercial games, not really.

In commercial games too. While they don’t care about security, they do care about compatibility and crash report diagnostics.

> As for "compatibility", I am not sure what you mean.

A windows update shouldn’t break stuff. A software or a game should run on a Windows released at least 10 years in the future.

> Clang can produce debugging info that you can use with VS.

According to marketing announcements. This page however https://clang.llvm.org/docs/MSVCCompatibility.html only says “mostly complete” and also “Work to teach lld about CodeView and PDBs is ongoing”. PDB support is not about VC compatibility, it’s about Windows compatibility really: the debugger engine is a component of OS, even of the OS kernel. WinDbg is merely a GUI client for that engine, visual studio is another one.

Overall, in my experience, the platform-default compilers cause the least amount of issues. On Windows this means msvc, on Linux gcc, on OSX clang. Technically gcc and clang are very portable. Practically, when you’re using a non-default toolset, you’re a minority of users of that toolset, e.g. the bugs you’ll find will be de-prioritized.
I think it's not super useful to generalize things down to being about censorship in the abstract. It can be true without contradiction that many people are against censorship in defense of DRM, and are for censorship targeted at keeping droves of hateful comments out.
Following your analogy, we should erradicate candy from this world and never allow anyone to produce more. This way surely kids won't get candy-induced diabetes.

There are perfectly valid reasons to want usb/bluetooth support for websites: fingerprint readers, smartcard readers and plenty of special-purpose hardware that would be useful to access through some web apps.

Does this mean every site should have access to all your hardware? Of course not. Let's make sure you have to bless a site to allow such access, make sure that the API can only be used from https-enabled (and trusted) origins, etc..

Your position of "just no because I don't see a need for it today" is a very close-minded one...
Correction: Some want to enrich themselves by lying about others, then firing them, or opposite sequence.
Running the post-training network is a solved problem. (FPGA and ASIC can do it just fine). TRAINING the network is the difficulty. The problem is that the structure of the network is arbitrary and is a result of the learning process. You can't optimize a computation for a structure you don't know yet. Bipartite layer networks have the benefit of never changing structure but they can approximate other subset structures. I don't know if we could easily tell where we are on the tradeoff between "bipartite graphs are trained efficiently but are inefficiently simulating a smaller network in practice"
