146 people died in club in France due to inwards doors in 1970: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Club_Cinq-Sept_fire

I don't know the scale of the fine but using inwards doors are a big no-no.

And similarly, electrical door must unlock themselves when losing power (unless special buildings like military or dangerous laboratories).
>We need more love in the world, we need to give people the space to be ignorant or wrong without being evil so we can welcome them out of the darkness instead of forcing them into it.

I agree with this sentiment but history shows how quickly this can spiral out of control. If these symbols (stars and bars and all its variations) were not directly tied to domestic terrorism and other various forms of violence, it would be easier to create room for learning.

Unless a balance is struck, we leave historically disenfranchised minorities to be potential future victims of the majority's ignorance.

> Take a diverse set of cultures, remove the undesirable parts of each culture, and you're left with a less diverse but better set. Unless you think cultures can have no "undesirable" parts....

But each culture will judge different parts of other cultures as being the undesirable ones...

Perhaps a better framing would be for each culture to judge for itself which parts of other cultures are worth copying...

Except that the agents doing the actual copying are individual participants in the various cultures (and subcultures!), so attempts to enforce this sort of judgement uniformly on a culture as a whole is often a recipe for a lot of intra-cultural misery.

All those things that you've mentioned provide data that is used to measure the health of bird populations and can serve as an early warning if those populations start to drop. Tagging also allows biologists to determine the routes taken by migratory birds. This in turn allows them to determine what areas serve as habitats for the birds and determine if their migratory paths are changing.

How do you propose monitoring the health of bird populations, making recommendations for areas that need to be protected, or a myriad of other things without having the relevant data?

It's easy to smugly talk about how developed nations are obsessed with numbers and figure when you ignore that those numbers and figures are used to form policies that have tangible effects.

Please understand that Apple is not in love with their user's privacy, they are in love with money and selling to markets.

. Why else would Apple set Google as the default search engine on iOS? They get paid (a lot!) by Google to be the default.

. They sold out to Chinese citizens by allowing their data centers to be read by their authoritarian government.

. Apple dropped plans to let iPhone users fully encrypt backups of their devices in the company’s iCloud service after the FBI complained that the move would harm investigations.

Still think Apple loves privacy more than anything else?

I think saying "you should never rewrite code from scratch" is a bit too dogmatic. There's a cost and risk tradeoff. I think people underestimate the cost of a rewrite (Due to ego or NIH or yak shaving), but I don't think it's never the answer.

Sometimes the language is so old it's cripplingly expensive to hire programmers in. Sometimes the code is deeply tied to a hardware architecture that is extinct. Sometimes the legacy code actually is that bad.

For reference, I've done total rewrites on two different small-ish software projects - in both cases because the original author had made design choices that made the whole thing unsustainable in the long run (no blame implied, it's more about shifting goals).

For reference, Twitter has done a total rewrite of their large codebase, and lived to tell the tale.

For BLAS in particular, this paper can give you an idea of some of MLIR's capabilities: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2003.00532.pdf
(But maybe you already know them better than I do.)

LoopVectorization can't do many of these yet, so its performance will fall off a cliff shortly after the largest size on the plots (and at much smaller sizes for CPUs with a smaller L2 cache). I had to add code to perform packing/tiling in my actual matmul code on top of what it did.
So that MLIR can generate that sort of code already looks promising.

Still, the work of telling it what to do isn't easy.

I'm not involved in any of those projects, so everything I say here is pure speculation. But I imagine pragmas and the like would be important whenever the compiler doesn't know the sizes at compile time.
Otherwise, you probably don't want it to generate massive amounts of code through multiple extra blocking loops, massive unrolling in a main kernel, and multiple clean up kernels for every random loop nest.
And yet it has the features the op wanted.

> can't be computed by a Turing machine or the lambda calculus

I agree they're equivalent. That's been proven. Maybe that would be clearer if it said "both a turing machine and the lambda calculus"? That's how I meant it.

Anyway I was just trying to add to the discussion by pointing out that what makes the Church-Turing Thesis a thesis or conjecture is that it hasn't been proven that "any computable problem can be solved using the device". That's generally accepted but not proven.

The equivalence of turing machines and the lambda calculus is actually a theorem though because it has been proven.
I'm not sure what your first few points have anything to do with the discussion, not to mention being incorrect (rationality is not objective as you're implying). This irrational SJW movement is not limited to a few companies, but is taking over the US in general. It's another form of oppression.
The story behind a site's most-viewed story of all time
New Labour were more or less analogous to the centre-right Democratic Party in the US.

Old Labour/Corbyn were more or less analogous to the European centre-left mainstream and Bernie Sanders. These centre-left positions are allowed to play a role to continue the appearance of genuine democracy, but they're not allowed to win power.

Some European countries have more extreme left parties. Some have actual Communist parties. These parties never win power either - but they tend to keep the centre-left on the left side of the centre and stop the rightwards drift that happened in the UK.

The British public haven't realised that the NHS - fully socialised medicine - is already over. They're worked out that care levels and service provision have been dropping steadily, but they haven't worked out that this has been happening since the 90s, because all the centre-right parties are ideologically opposed to effective public health care.

Meanwhile Brexit is about oligarch-ing what's left of the UK, very much in the style of post-Soviet Russia. It's a period of planned chaos which will see a small number of rich and well-connected individuals land-grabbing public money and what's left of the public's assets.

Unlike Russia, which had significant physical resources, the UK has very little of value which won't be destroyed by Brexit. The remains of the NHS is on that list, and it will be forced to become a customer of US pharma and insurance with a much-weakened negotiating position.
I disagree that it's cross organisational. OPs question was "is tracking useful" and the article is talking about sharing info between apps.

Being logged into Facebook messenger because I'm logged into the Facebook app, gmail having access to info from gcal, Ticketmaster having access to livenation preferences are all examples of sharing within the same organisarion that benefit a user.
I've been called a "shrill Far Leftist" and a "fascist appeaser". While labels of "liberal" and "conservative" are somewhat handy for general categorization, to label oneself is to automatically box one in with the assumptions of that label.

I am a truth seeker, and if that truth should conflict with assumptions I hold, I do my damndest to welcome that truth to the best of my abilities.

I think that a key component of intelligence is the ability to "unlearn".

That said, conservapedia is a joke to me, which is ironic because conservative comedy usually weak sauce (see Dennis Miller for further details). Writing articles that are intentionally biased whilst proclaiming to be "the truth" borders on Dunning Kruger territory.

I don't say this as a personal attack on your ethos, only on any efforts to proclaim a "truth" in service of an agenda.

> They are referring to somebody who is actually a proponent of the killing, in which case it is impossible, or at least moot, for that person to be arguing "in good faith". This seems obvious to me, so maybe I'm missing something else you're trying to say.

What you're missing is that that isn't impossible.

The actual premise is impossible, because nobody ever wants to do anything "for no reason" -- there is always some reason. Which is why you need to have the discussion, instead of assuming there is no reason. To figure out what their reason is.

Because it could be a good reason. Maybe you're stranded on a mountain with 30 people but only enough provisions for 20 and if you try to share then everyone will die instead of a third of everyone. And then killing 10 people isn't actually beyond the pale, and even if you decide against it you still need to have the discussion because you need to do something.

Or maybe it's because your friend just really hates short people and wants to kill them, which is a stupid reason that isn't going to convince you, but at least now you know what it is and can dismiss it out of knowledge rather than ignorance.
> But this competitive market with limited resources has "perfect is the enemy of good" situation. Landlords can choose and they want perfect.

Dismissing a hypothesis just on the basis of sticking to the baseline works in 99% cases. Then there are the 1% Galileos and Keplers which get dismissed too because their argument is not heard out.

Honestly, it's good to hear I'm not alone.

Synchronization in Joplin concerned me too. E2EE is non-trivial to setup and Joplin will upload decrypted files if E2EE is misconfigured on a device. Encryption appears to be an afterthought in Joplin.

Standard Notes looks snazzy but too many features fail to work. I cannot get paste to work consistently on my mobile devices, and you're right - the editors are a an absolute mess. File Safe is only supported in unsupported editors and the supported editors lack basic features. FYI, the spreadsheet editor unsupported and exporting sheet data is...difficult.

I do not recommend Standard Notes anymore. Thanks for pointing out a need for external backups in Joplin though!

> “Heh. You’re telling me.” the Professor laughed, shaking his head. “I’m dead. I’m… dead. Do you know what that means?”

> “I have an inkling.” Princess Celestia said, wincing.

> “It means I don’t have to worry about even numbers anymore.” he said, nodding. “I don’t have to worry about probabilities anymore! I don’t have to worry about the upcoming war anymore! I don’t have to worry about anypony anymore!” he spread his hooves out at his sides, “I don’t have to do anything anymore! It’s beautiful!”

> “Yes, yes, I’m sure it is.” Princess Celestia said, nodding along.

> “Nothing matters now that I’m dead!” he cheered, “It’s great! I’m free! This is what it feels like to be liberated!”

> “I can see that.” she said.

> “I’m free from death!” he continued, “I’m free from taxes! I’m free from dictatorships! I’m free from flirting!” he laughed, “I’m free from everything! Isn’t it great?”

> “Sure, I guess.” Princess Celestia shrugged.

> “What do you think about all of this, Princess?” he asked.

> “About what?” she replied.

> “Well, I just thought you might have something to say about it all.” he told her.

> “What would you like me to say?” she responded.

> “Do you think death is awesome?” he questioned.

> “Well… no.” she shook her head, “But I think the passage to it is.”

> “Oh.” he said, “I see what you mean.”

It would be even more user friendly if it just popped up a message "You're free trial period has ended, would you like to subscribe?" People here seem to be claiming Apple will send you a message except it will be passive in that if you do nothing you're money will be taken. There are so many reasons I might miss that message, not the least of which is it being buried in all the other messages and notifications I get all day. Just make it opt-in instead of opt-out and suddenly it's super user friendly. In fact the companies can pause your subscription so if you don't get around to it the first time you interact after the free trial it's one click to subscribe and pick up where you left off.
There are methods for rewriting legacy systems. Articles like this make the job of improving systems more difficult by creating an impassable set of presuppositions among non-technical stakeholders.
If you look at it from the perspective of Amazons own internal wealth being its own currency, money has a different value in the system and outside it. He buy things directly with stock, like we would use cash. He can downgrade his value store from Amazon bucks to USD, but he doesnt have to to spend it. Knowing how Amazon shares convert to USD is probably less useful than knowing what you can buy directly with Amazon shares.

> I also find it amusing that all of the stories regarding train-car interactions seem to occur at crossings with modern signaling devices, rather than "at your own discretion" crossings in the middle of nowhere.

A large part of this is due to population density (or trip density) around the crossing. If you've got 1000x the number of trips on a crossing, a 100x safer crossing is still 10x more likely to result in a colission. Fill in your own estimates, as my numbers are clearly made up. Also, guidelines require more signalling in built up / dense areas, and at intersections with a history of colissions.

Additionally, if you have a colission at an unguarded intersection, the response is often to consider a guard, and if it happens again, the story is 'senseless officials refuse to put in guard' rather than 'sensless person disobeys guard and is injured/causes confusion and delay'
> And if the average person does something else, then common sense isn't really the right term. And even average person isn't the right bar.

It's quite evidently you don't think the average person is the right bar, because the average person doesn't race trains. 3000 a year is next to nothing compared to other common hazards.

Maybe we should eliminate all intersections, since although the average person obeys signal lights and signs, the occasional idiot chooses to run red lights instead. We should eliminate crosswalks too; the average person looks both ways before stepping into the street, but occasionally people don't (this happens FAR more often than train/car collisions.) Let's ban bicycles too; the average cyclist wears a helmet but some choose not to and get their heads split open. Let's also ban self-service gas stations; the average person can pump their own gas without burning the station down but sometimes some people fuck up and cause huge fires. Doesn't that mean we should all follow the lead of Oregon and New Jersey and ban this activity? 'Nobody' cares that you can pump your own gas safely, please be considerate of the rare idiot who can't.

Heh, look at the script that they're loading.

You can tell by the URL path (it's under /content/dam) that it's served by Adobe Experience Manager (Adobe's CMS, dam stands for digital asset manager, where you store static assets like images and js). The script itself is "target.js", which is Adobe Target - their A/B framework - which "supports custom code insertion"[1] similar to a tag manager.

It's not GTM, but this is like loading the GTM script itself from archive.org.
