Before we filter for truth lets train our police force to be less violent because that breads more violence on the other end and we all loose except for the powerheads in charge as well as the real gangsters. Police have no right to be violent, they do get a paycheck for fsake, and they have the law on their side as well.

I will respect all cops when they earn it. So far I respect only those I interacted with and were well behaved, polite, etc

There are free-rider problems everywhere. From a "rights" perspective, the fact that you can see a free-rider problem and have an idea for some kind of law that you think would improve incentives doesn't justify using legal force to impose these changes on everyone else. But I'm not sure how many people there are these days for whom a "rights" argument carries weight.

For a more empirical approach, I think it's worth looking at "Against Intellectual Monopoly" [1], from 2008. "Chapter 8: Does Intellectual Monopoly Increase Innovation?" [2] may be of particular interest.

We've been a paying customer for a month and enjoy linear a lot.

I tried a ton of other trackers, my second favorite being Notion. Reason we left Notion was lack of an API.

Even though it lacks some basic features, a graphQL API that means I'll never be missing an endpoint and webhooks keep me happy.

For example, I have a step in CI to move issues from staged to deployed. Also then moves associated hubspot to tickets to a queue for CS to inform the customer.
Or if they were run by a felon in a country where accounting and governmental employees are highly motivated not to criticize said felons accounting practices. Then you might think twice about taking them at face value.

This is true and regrettable, but that skin is still important.

I get to use Firefox, it comes with nice tracker blocking out of the box, it keeps my history in sync with my other devices and I find the UI to be a little nicer (personal taste).

Of course I'd like the Firefox that's available on Android, with extensions capabilities and web push support. But having the ability to open links from Mail in iOS Firefox would still be nice and I can't wait for it.
Plus shadow. And it steals focus on new tab. And it shifts text when selecting. And no history now. It is just dumber and uglier version of the old normal address bar which nobody asked to "improve" this way.
How to Create a Theme for Hugo
Yeah, this was my exact problem with that comment. They ended it by saying apps like Facebook/Gmail/etc don't collect nearly the same amount of data, but I'm very hard pressed to believe that. I'll believe it when they show a side-by-side comparison of what portions of each category they listed TikTok is accessing/Facebook is accessing, with the accompanying bytecode they claim to have decoded.
That's not cute. It's incredibly appalling to compare the institution of slavery to people who pirate books simply because they want the benefits of authors' work without compensating those authors.
This may be a minority opinion, but I'm disappointed that so many core workflow apps like ticketing still living in the browser. Any serious programmer would scoff at the idea at their main IDE being within a browser, so why is it acceptable for a ticketing system, which is nearly as core to our workflows?
Strange move from such a big program.
Do you realise that in most other countries judges don't expose any political bias? There are no right-wing judges or left-wing judges in the UK, they all just act fairly and interpret cases according to the law.

If there are major questions of interpretation they leave it to the legislature to clarify.

In the current environment, I’m not so sure. I was really negative on the St. Louis couple that pulled guns on protesters... until I learned the “peaceful” protesters were on private property and had already destroyed an iron gate and were threatening to burn down their house. None of those latter facts were easily available until I dug deeper into the story. The New York Times story that shows up when I Google mentions none of these facts, most importantly that the protesters, more accurately a rioting mob, were on private property.

So what does this leave us with? A story designed to inflame. Complicating matters more is that the couple were actually big donators to BLM and the DNC, which adds more layers to the narrative, but of course this isn’t mentioned and we are meant to assume they are Trump voters (even though that doesn’t make a difference legally, it makes a difference narratively)

EDIT: and the happy-go-lucky censors downvote into oblivion, proving my point.
In practice, that white screen is driving people to adopt client side rendering and greatly increased complexity. Another option might be nice!

I have been juggling with trying to understand you. Perhaps as much as you me.

I think i have something we can both understand 'trashiness of value' could be measured partly as measure of its proximity to unessential processes to artificially inflate value. This is a robbery not of cops and robbers and masks but of the ability for a person to be disguised as clever and take advantage of peoples sense of trust and hope for positive market behavior. I do believe it is destroying us.

Another attempt: my views are an attempt to present the value system/logic of why we might be happier, more successful when our transactions are more aligned with Real Value than Perceived Value. Youre welcome to help me improve this. We both want the same thing, it seems. We just are seeing different roads to the same successful/free choice result. Or maybe its more accurate to say that i see a risk/or a loss in a behavior within the widely accepted system of consumer\producer behaviors. An opportunity to optimize.

Value is arbitrary. But we are trying to describe specific types of value. And debate their merit.
So I guess the fact that he went to live in the jungle as a kid is supposed to prove he isn't a crank now, 20+ years later? That's really, really not how it works.

I definitely think a lot of the climate alarm is hyperbolic and misrepresentative, but not so much in the sense that it isn't a problem as that it's a problem that will only become obvious to laypeople long after the chance to prevent it from killing a lot of them is past.

If he wants to convince me, he needs to do a lot less talking about how virtuous he is, less talking about his new book, and more showing me real data and scientific results.
$35 -> $65 in ~2 years?

I originally got this because it was a great way to watch baseball games without being blacked out (at the time I was subbed to mlb.tv and forced to use an out-of-area VPN to get around the local blackout to watch my team).

I only watch "regular" TV through it occasionally. So now I'm forced to pay $65 a month for mostly one channel (local NBC Sports).

Crazy.

And what if the police attack a peaceful protest and create the cover for others to ransack?

As I saw with my own eyes occurring.
Nope. Just prohibit jailing people for being too poor to paying tickets and similar "crimes". This definitely does not require mandatory sentences which is an evil on its own.

This type of deep injustice getting mostly ignored by the loudest activitist-type people has made me realize most people would rather throw crap at their local "enemies" and use wedge issues to score points. I mostly get blank looks or shrugs when you bring up serious injustice from a global perspective, or worse get accused of "distracting" from wherever they are worked up over.

> It always seemed to me like the greatest hedge we could have is having human colonies on other planets... While I realize that could be many decades away, it does seem like prioritizing it would make it happen much faster.

Greatest in the sense of absolute scale, or with sufficiently long planning horizons, perhaps. But I doubt that any quantity of attainable prioritization will deliver any of that value, on the scale of the time we have before climate change starts inflicting drastic damage on our overall stability and way of life.

Put another way, I wish Musk the best. He's absolutely mad, and a terrible person to have as a superior, but for all of that... he's accomplishing far more than I think anyone had right to expect. I think it will still amount to too little as a "climate change lifeboat", but if we adequately mitigate our immediate woes while we wait, and his successors can maintain his vision, drive, and disrespect for petty things like work/life balance, they might actually take us somewhere a few generations down the line.

I think it's more about the near-infinite number of people you have to play with on video games vs in-person sports.

If you blow up at someone during a sports game, there will be real-world consequences for you, eventually you will not be able to play that game at all in your geographic area.

If you yell at people over a computer headset it doesn't matter what they think of you, you can simply move on to the next group of people. Very rarely (mostly at the very top levels) does reputation matter. And at the end of the day you can simply name change and escape your rep.

Interpersonally the stakes are orders of magnitude lower in video games than in RL.
Here's a fun problem which can be solved by linear algebra.

You have a group of 20 people. Each of them rates how much they like everyone else, on a scale of 1 to 10. Your task is to figure out how popular everyone is, again on a scale from 1 to 10. Someone's "popularity" is based on how much the other kids like them, except the cool kids' opinion count more. You're popular if the popular people like you.

Can you mathematically compute how popular everyone is? Is the solution unique? Or might there be more than one solution? The problem seems hopelessly circular -- you have to figure out who is popular before you can figure out who is popular -- but actually it turns out to be a standard linear algebra problem.
To think that only about 20 people might be responsible for insurgency is a remarkable claim, but it doesn't take many bad apples to create a real problem, it would seem. In the USA, the ongoing unmasking and cleanup of Atomwaffen [0] has revealed around 80 people participating, and that's already enough people to create an ongoing domestic terrorism situation.

The types of apps that are theoretically “moving to the web” aren’t making Apple any money anyway. There is no evidence that there is a trend for the types of apps that actually benefit from in app purchases are moving to the web.

All of the APIs that Apple isn’t supporting wouldn’t help a single major revenue producing app move to the browser.
Cant read the article but +1 for title.
If you're technologically illiterate, this might be true. Witness however Firefox for Android (vs iOS), the most important differences for me being:

- Extensions support, so uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, the best ad-blocking combination that far surpasses Safari's content blockers, which are pretty shitty; and extensions are useful for more than ad-blocking — e.g. I have another one on my tablet that turns all web pages to dark mode, whether they support it or not

- Web push notifications

- (Up until very recently) webp format support

On Android I wouldn't even install many apps, like Facebook, or Twitter, or Fastmail, I'd simply use them as PWAs (web apps), in Firefox with ads blocking on, because I could.

I still use Firefox on iOS for the history / bookmarks syncing, but it's a shadow of actual Firefox.
Ironic thing to say, since for many, their IDE is visual studio code, an electron app.

The temporary suspension accomplishes the same purpose. Either way you can't practice law while you're appealing, which is the only punishment the bar can mete out.
“The cops are always right, have never done wrong, never provoked, have no ego and never powertrip.”

As usual, Fred Brook's Mythical Man-Month had some valuable insights on this back in 1975:

> To make a user-friendly system, the system must have conceptual integrity, which can only be achieved by separating architecture from implementation. A single chief architect (or a small number of architects), acting on the user's behalf, decides what goes in the system and what stays out. The architect or team of architects should develop an idea of what the system should do and make sure that this vision is understood by the rest of the team. A novel idea by someone may not be included if it does not fit seamlessly with the overall system design. In fact, to ensure a user-friendly system, a system may deliberately provide fewer features than it is capable of. The point being, if a system is too complicated to use, many features will go unused because no one has time to learn them.

> Any serious programmer would scoff at the idea at their main IDE being within a browser

Are you talking about just the browser chrome or the actual implementation? Because maybe it means that I'm not a serious programmer, but I love VS Code.

The filesystem access issues make IDEs a bit different than issue trackers IMO, I don't have a problem with an issue tracker living in a browser, or being browser + Electron options.
>No doubt we have a problem, this is a great start to a collection, but we may want to consider filtering for truth or at least incidents with credible evidence

Yeah, that's the job of the justice system. However, they have been failing to do their jobs properly for decades. If they could be trusted to investigate themselves we wouldn't need this list.
Sure we can’t produce a precise number yet.

But we can clearly see the order of magnitude, and it is quite obviously impressive in both of the ways already stated.

iPads are faster than Mac mini’s even with the same thermal differential.

The thermal issue does nothing to dismiss this truth.
What if you just refuse to pay because you hate what the government does with the money? It essentially means being thrown in jail for being stubborn.

I know this is HN, but do we really need to reinvent the concepts of punishment and deterrence from first principles? And I shouldn't even have to say it but of course the example instance at the root here is far beyond excessive.
There's no advantage to native-based issue trackers.
Finally a simple issue tracker - I was waiting for something like this for ages.
This is assuming, of course, that the PRC value system and legal framework is lock-step with Chinese modern ethics, traditional ethics, or Chinese culture.

Whiiiiich of course assume that that's homogeneous, which, obviously, it isn't. Just like "Western morals" aren't (I'm trying to be good faith in parsing that and I can't figure out what you mean by western morals).

So when you say "The Chinese will be the ascendant ethnicity and culture," do you mean the rural American scapegoat? Aka, chopsticks, epicanthic folds, and Simplified Chinese? I could see how that could be the meat and potatoes of the argument, because even if what that actually ends up meaning in reality is that though a separatist Democratic movement overthrows the CCP, the (future) USA populist government successfully redefines the Chinese Threat to include this completely different political structure to fall under the umbrella of "Chinese," which society has allowed to mean what I'm arguing we should prevent it to mean.

I can say where you're completely wrong - it's not mildly humorous to find me in this position. It's fucking hilarious. Of all political considerations on earth nothing heats my blood more than the evils of Xi Jinping and the tyrannical PRC regime. They are bullies, they violate human rights, and they should be overthrown. I have to balance this against my love of all the good things that Chinese culture brings to the table, just by nature of being a bunch of humans with a rich ancestral background forming their language, food, traditions, etc. And by Chinese I again refer to that concept vague even in any of the languages that adopted the Chinese writing system.

If you're comfortable disclosing, what is this "bad thing"? From my understanding, Play Services provides roughly the same suite of things that are also supplied on iOS, only on iOS, it's built into the OS (location services, cloud messaging, etc.), while on Android it's a modular component that Google can push updates to without a full OS update. Is that not accurate?

Those are not equivalent. Some businesses don't need tons of software, and can switch. Other businesses have not even started yet, and could avoid windows from the start.

An extra backup is cheaper than switching software stacks, sure. But you're stretching the hyperbole pretty far.
