Your ISP is a utility. Twitter is not. Your ISP cannot block you from hosting your own blog on your own servers. Even if your ISP did, there are places which will allow you to host whatever you want. Alex Jones is still online for example. WikiLeaks is still online.

This argument is always about people complaining that they don't get to participate on the big platforms. But if there was so much demand for people shouting about racist loser shit online there would be a big platform for it. It's their responsibility to build it, not Twitter's
Not to mention long term economic consequences of permanently (not sure how much of this social distancing thing will last after the pandemic is over) altering human connectivity. 15-25% unemployment in most developed economies right now. A lot of the activities people get enjoyment out of (dancing, concerts, church, school, etc) are completely shut down.
Drug addiction will cause people to do truly unthinkable things. They get a wad of cash, the only thing they think about is drugs, and to hell with anything else. It's amazing how it re-prioritizes the structure of the brain.

How ironic, one of the first things that I missed in Java was that. Nor the compiler error, nor the standard linter (checkstyle) prevents unused variables.

This reminded me the times of Mozilla Netscape, IE and Firefox. I remember having conversations in /. about how for "normal people" the big blue E icon is the Internet and that grandmas of the world cried that "the internet was gone" when that icon disappeard.

Then it was Google, and now it is Facebook.

I think that would be an interesting thing to have, and the implementation of it would have to solve a lot of issues (equal access to technology, etc) that need solving badly.

I'm also glad we finally got to the actual thing you want to see change.

Curious though: what would having this space solve?
> The lockdown was sold here as a way to "flatten the curve": everybody who would have gotten it will still get it, but not all at once, so the hospitals won't be overwhelmed.

The lockdown was intended to do two things, not one:

1. What you say, reduce the rate of spread. The popular "flatten the curve" thing, which, when grossly simplified, suggests that if 1 million people were going to get it it was inevitable, but we could spread it out over months instead of weeks.

2. Reduce the total number of people exposed and thus reduce the total number who would eventually get it.

The disease is not inevitable for anyone, it is not inevitable that 70% of the population (picking an arbitrary figure here) would get the disease. It is inevitable that it was going to spread, and with proper controls that spread could be changed both in rate and total number infected.
People are desperate. This is to be expected. Along with unemployment, loneliness, hopelessness, helplessness, stress, fear, and anxiety have all risen greatly. This is how people cope when they are not in control of their lives and especially when they don't see a path to regain that control. I would expect more of this. Drug overdoses were already a huge issue because of societal issues. Now, they will be even more so. In a society with no community and poor job prospects, prospects for the future look bleak. Can't really blame people for wanting something to console them in such bleak times. For many, it went from bleak to dire and horrific. The handling of the pandemic is just the latest way that society has failed so many.

Being the richest country on earth and also the one with the worst virus situation can also lead to cognitive dissonance for many people. Envy of other places that are handling the situation better is another thing that can lead people to despair. As is having no leader or leadership, no direction, no goal, no plan, and no idea of what the future will bring.

It's a nationwide disaster that people are simply not ready to deal with. Many people here have no idea what suffering is and therefore, they don't know how to suffer or how to get through such times. Suffering is externalized onto minorities and other unwanted people in society so that the well off don't have to deal with it. Now everyone's suffering and many simply can't cope with the suffering or with the additional suffering. Many resort to childish behaviors like refusing to wear masks or social distance to make themselves feel better by hurting others. A lot of people simply never grew up and now that suffering is inevitable, feel like they should be getting an exemption.
Thank you for looking at it!

The basic idea was (is) to create a definitive resource for annotations on literature. Annotated information on any text is spread sloppily across different editions, from Oxford World Classics to Norton, and generally don't focus on the same issues. Much of it is commentary on textual issues, or only identify certain things. Entire passages will be detailed in one copy, but not in another.

Basically I just feel like there should be a definitive resource for deep reading. An ever more detailed pool of analytical interpretation. It's a dream, I just don't know that others are as interested in it as me.

There are certain resources, like Infinite Jest Page by Page[1] that were essentially a single book version of what I'm trying to accomplish and were super effective, but not very normalized or formalized. I really just hope to do something like that, on a larger scale, with more literature. My dream would be to also include copyright texts, viewable either through a token provided by a purchase of the text from the publisher, or by just searching for lines to see annotations. I really just want to create a super massive body of exhaustive and quasi-definitive annotations to all of the world's literature.

And yeah, the color scheme is apparently not very popular. It's really just my own implementation of Ethan Schoonover's light version of solarized[0], which is supposed to be what it's like to read a book in the shade on a bright summer day. But however romantic that sounds, it's not very popular.

I guess one thing that Python and later other languages like Go got right, is this "batteries included" mindset, where a language can be used without much dependencies on other codebases.

I was following Go in the beginning (2009/2010) and the team behind Go had a great architectural understanding of how to make a platform library in a "cathedral" fashion. This is one of the big reasons Go did great as a new language.

People from Python and Ruby could use Go as a alternative on server/backend software because the core platform was there together with AOT compilation, GC and its was a much faster alternative to those languages. As people from Java could be released from the burden of too many abstractions, heavy runtime and the big memory pressure on servers.

Go was a good savior back than, and still is a good alternative to the infrastructure kind of sofware.

Giving the crowds using Go were distinct, each one of them missed different things in their former runtimes.

Maybe I'm missing something but a clipboard permission seems to be pretty useless for most apps.

When I want to login I have to paste my password, when I want to paste an email address into a Linkedin chat I need the clipboard.

So everyone would just grant that permission anyway as it makes a lot of apps useless without and they'd just continue their harvesting after that. It would be a very small percentage to selectively enable/disable the clipboard permissions for certain tasks.
You can't be too great at it though, or you get beheaded. You have to carefully limit the societal critiques and "blinding insights" to something acceptable enough for your audience.
Not to mention that when we're talking about freighters, e.g. 747-8F-- they are not limited to belly hold freight. (And have much less cabin weight, fly slower / use less fuel, so the weight they can carry is better than repurposed passenger aircraft).
Deaths are still on the way down in Georgia, one of the earliest states to re-open: https://ga-covid19.ondemand.sas.com/

I would say, excessive lockdowns are not effective at fighting the virus. You win a short term victory at the cost of your long term future. You can kick the can down the road, but as soon as you re-open, if you haven't achieved herd immunity, the virus will spike again. That's going to happen to any country, anywhere.

As for China, we have no real idea of how much death or cases they have there. And from what I witnessed in Wuhan, where residents were bolted into their apartment complexes and barred from leaving, and whisked away from their homes at the first sign of a fever...I do not wish that on any free person. That is what happens when you live in a Communist prison state. I'll take liberty with all the risks that implies over Chinese tyranny any day.
And it's worthwhile noting the 747-8I (the passenger variant) hasn't received any orders since 2013 as far as I'm aware (the VC-25Bs are being converted from unsold airframes which had originally been ordered in 2011) and the last rolled off the production line in 2017.
First thing when you open the article:

I lived alone for 2 years but most of the day I was out, working and doing my stuff. Some weekends when I had nothing to do and no one to hang out with I kind of felt what loneliness is. Not that it was a big problem to me then as I can entertain myself with a good book, a game, some movies, etc, but several weeks of that would've been very different.

Loneliness can hit you hard, very hard. And on top of that if you have any addiction and mental health problems...

I think history has shown that monarchies are hardly aloof of their people for long. There are certainly limits to how far the king can go, but that doesn’t change the fact that he is a king.
Then, "full ownership" is a meaningless concept, not worth the electrons and brain cycles you and I just wasted on it.
What are you on about? States are not reporting accurate numbers because they're wanting to re-open. I'm cynical in thinking that these numbers won't get reported as COVID related deaths for the simple reason the virus wasn't the cause of death even though they are results of the overall effect of the pandemic.
Yeah, it does indeed. But compared to what? Reviewing high density code can surely hide bugs as well when reviewing? Either way, it's also easier to debug low density code so there are more things to consider.
Entirely? No. Nobody (I think) is claiming that.

But if you lock down so that each infected person, on average, infects less than one new person, and you do it long enough, then yes, you can completely eliminate the virus that way. And yes, that is perfectly consistent with what we know about epidemiology.

The cure may literally be worse than the disease, but we could do that.

But there comes a point where the number of cases is small enough that you use testing and contact tracing to do the rest.
>It's super-easy to sue people for hate speech? Rational people are theoretically much more likely to consider their words, because they know everyone can get their ass fined and possibly imprisoned.

Hate speech isn't well-defined though. It seems to just be a du jour list of things that upset people too much. What about a picture of a famous slave ship?
The original author isn't clear, and I would not have used that phrase, but the focus is on restrictions made and enforced by AWS.

In that context, I read their desire for "full ownership" to mean "I can use these resources for any lawful purpose, unencumbered by additional contractual constraints made at the whim of my provider."
That's really not a fair characterization of the situation.
Yet op before you was just saying "well if you make the sign a 'reasonable person' knows it's to be racist".

I cannot wrap my mind around the level of cognitive dissonance there is around racial things. Real people's lives are harmed by this overreaction.

Meanwhile on reddit it's cool to he racist if it's against white people.
>People realized that was idiotic?

This

>Don't celebrate that someone accidentally did something worthwhile for a terrible reason.

Doesn't track with this.

>Target your efforts at doing things that are worthwhile, not at doing things that are hard.

I think you're missing nuance.

I say, condemn those who lazily do the easiest jobs that don't interrupt their sleep at night.

Rather, we should all be trying to make the greatest positive impact within 40 hours of work a week. Those who do more are being taken advantage of one way or a dozen. Those who do less are taking advantage.

By setting a floor and a ceiling we limit abuses on both sides and,hopefully,better distribute labor.

Also,doing things that are hard for the sheer sake of it is not idiotic. It can be a positive characteristic, just like avoiding difficulty is a negative one.

Which is an argument for "common carrier" type regulation. Railroads once had a similar monopoly position. They could refuse to carry items from one shipper to favor another. In the US they have an obligation to provide "reasonable service for a reasonable rate upon a reasonable request from a shipper".[1] There's long history around this, and it may be time to apply it to some Internet services.

The point of flattening the curve is keeping the curve flat. No one anywhere has eradicated the virus, but through the strict initial lockdown plus constant vigilance on part of both the government and the individuals they can keep the curve flat and stop it from going exponential.

The problem is that once we flattened the curve, we decided to go hogwild, masks off, open up everything and now we get to pay the price for that.

Texas is a great example of that where our state government behaved like absolute jackoffs and now we're seeing a massive amount of new cases and increased pressure on hospitals. But people assumed that 'we're far below capacity! the lockdown is pointless!' as if the lockdown wasn't the reason for that in the first place.
It assumes articles will say the same thing in every language, which to me means that edit wars can now proceed on a more global basis. You're no longer fighting only the people who feel comfortable enough with your language to edit in it, you're fighting anyone who can edit the article at all around the world.

Python does have some warts with like you said hashbangs but its still eons ahead of other similar languages in this regard (like Ruby) and that is a small thing to relegate it in your mind to a 'beginner only' language, since tons of other languages do things much worse than Python does.

Python's simplicity - which makes it appealing for beginners - is its core strength that had made it so widely adopted for so many different things.

I've suspected it's the same and this is an extremely hard conversation to have.

If Trudeau says 'he will take care of Canadians', how can anyone argue against that? He's a hero, he's sending out $2000 to anyone with a social insurance number, based on the honour system. In practice, people began gaming it from day one, started groups telling each other how to game it, and soon the disconnect between CERB applicants and actual newly unemployed was in the millions.

If you pass a policy that gets money in to the hands of Canadians, great, however, surely there should be some restrictions for those who can't handle any sort of money over $100 for their own health. Give a hard addict more than $100, and in a night they'll overdose. Give them, people skirting the line with full blown addiction, $2000, along with a border shutdown limiting supply and you have a recipe for a drug crisis.

Unintended consequences are important to acknowledge too, and this I think is too hard to talk about, because how can you argue with someone who is just trying to take care of Canadians?
This for me is what has really decreased the quality of the Internet. Geocities was full of really good articles about things like electronics instructions manuals, DIYs and whatnot.

Nowadays the Internet is full of spam disguised as content, but really not containing any content. The majority of the content you see on the web is actually written by marketing agencies, and even "white papers", "case studies" or other similar articles are nothing more than marketing material.
I mean, ok... Is saying "fuck!" spreading hate? what about "you asshole!"? Sometimes humans just express their emotion using words. It isn't always about race. Gaming in particular evokes lots of emotions and always has. Personally I don't like when words are scrambled such as the case with Rocket League, because as someone else pointed out, you end up with barely being able to say anything without some part of it being scrambled. But I can understand the motivations for a company to do such a thing.
The lockdowns in China were indeed brutal, and involved a use of force that simply would not be acceptable in the U.S. But even there, there's evidence it was much more severe than the officials let on, and there was a rebound after reopening. They are very secretive about it though.
[I already answered you once but I thought of another way to think about it that is substantially different than my other comment so thought I'd write another one.]

The freight economics issue between the 747F and the A380F is related to the complex soup of fixed costs and variable costs that go into the carrier's choice of platform; in addition to the fuel, the carrier has to amortize the purchase price, and the A380F with newer technology is a much more expensive platform to the freight carriers.

Because the 747 is so old, most of the development costs are long since amortized. This gives Boeing more pricing flexibility if the two companies are competing head to head. The A380 otoh needed to earn back lot of money to get back to breakeven for Airbus, so Airbus did not have the same pricing flexibility as Boeing. It was in the interest of the freight carriers to be able to play the two companies off against one another on price, but it was in Boeing's interest to kill the A380F so they wouldn't need to compete with it.

And on Airbus's side, the A380F was also "competing" with the passenger A380 for slots on assembly line; since the passenger version paid a premium for the longer range capability that the freighter could not command (because freighters stop to refuel anyway) it didn't make sense in the short run for Airbus to compete in the freighter space. And as it turns out, there was no longer term for the platform as a whole, especially considering it didn't actually have cost advantages as a freighter anyway.
I would say operator friendliness is actually the best reason to roll your own (was clearly not the case here). If you have a system that is less complex, because it meets your use case only and not the competing use cases of every damn engineering outfit that can pay overpaid and underqualified devs to commit to an open sourced codebase, and as a result requires less labor to manage (for example, not using kubernetes for a 3 person startup), you should roll your own.
There's certainly no shortage of "fucks" already on S3, so I'm guessing AWS doesn't give any about them.
