I work at Read the Docs and we're behind EthicalAds (ethicalads.io). Read the Docs has been running ads on our own sites for years and that's how we're funded. We do our own ad sales, we don't run advertiser supplied scripts, and we host the ad resources like images ourselves. You can read a bit about it here[1] or here[2].

EthicalAds is our ad network for sites not hosted by us and it's about a month old. It uses the same ad serving setup as Read the Docs and it follows the same principles.

Based on my affiliation, I'm going to be biased. However, if you have any questions, you can reach me at my first name @readthedocs.org.

My biggest regret was ever taking a job in the first place. I should have worked for myself, my own business, from day one. Working for someone else robbed me of so much potential. Easily one of the biggest opportunity costs I’ve ever paid.

You can't ignore ads, they are all around you, moreover, many ads are effective even if you're not consciously paying attention. Look around your home and life at the products that surround you. You've seen ads for many of them. You've seen famous/important people talk about them.

For example, by the time you buy an automobile of a certain brand, you've probably witnessed a lifetime of ads for that brand.

Ads work on everyone. Some people more than others, some ads more than others, but none of us are immune.

It would be nice if you could create a sharable link to share your specific recipe. You could encode it in the URL like thecookie.website/?q=20&lightness=80&chewiness=80&... - or use a reversible hash type function to get thecookie.website/2fa389dc. Then add a button to show the link & copy it to the clipboard, and maybe also make the URL change when dragging the sliders.

From the developer of RNNoise, which is the technique being used here:

"As strange as it may sound, you should not be expecting an increase in intelligibility. Humans are so good at understanding speech in noise that an enhancement algorithm — especially one that isn't allowed to look ahead of the speech it's denoising — can only destroy information. So why are we doing this in the first place? For quality. The enhanced speech is much less annoying to listen to and likely causes less listener fatigue"

I'm saying fraud is unknown. Your claim is that there is none, but there is no way to prove a negative and there has been no serious confirmation at scale to conclude otherwise.

Your links are limited to voter ID but there are more types of fraud and, as I explained before, they're all the same as far as needing confirmation to be able to measure. Instant dismissal without study is the problem, and just as conspiratorial as saying it's rampant. I simply want the truth through evidence.

As far as IDs, they're necessary for: opening a bank account, cashing a check, driving a car, buying a car, buying a house, signing a lease, having employment, buying any insurance, using any form of credit, going to school, paying for utilities, receiving welfare, food stamps or any public benefits. Please explain the overlap of people who have never done any of these things, don't have any ID, don't have any legal documentation, and are eligible to vote.

Your 2nd link describes someone who has 2 IDs already, and has failed to get a new one after it expired. There will always be anecdotes of such paperwork mishaps but this doesn't show that there's a structural problem (he refuses to go to court to fix records even though fees can be waived easily). The idea that a certain race or group of people are incapable of attaining IDs like everyone else is a prime example of the bigotry of soft expectations.
I believe the pair I had were from Dockers and were called "Dockers Mobile Pocket". More or less like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDAaGSshhhY

They were a big enough deal that Time Magazine put them in their "Best inventions of 2001" list: http://content.time.com/time/specials/packages/article/0,288...

In the end, I didn't really care for them and it looks like most people didn't either as they're discontinued. The cargo pocket was more fussy than just putting my stuff in the regular old pockets. I think I remember hitting things with my knees a lot in certain positions.

These days? I guess it depends on what you consider "dress pants", but for pants that don't scream "I'm working construction or shooting a gun during an invasion"...looking around for a bit, Dickies, Red Kap, Scottevest (promoted by Steve Wozniak specifically as a good pair of pants for big phones), Docker D3 line. I've definitely seen them at places like Target, JoS.A.Bank, etc.

Tactical brands like 5.11, Woolrich, Propper, etc. will also sell "discreet" or "concealed carry" cargo pants that look basically like normal slacks.

There's also a ton of plain old fitted and fashion cargo pants around too. I think Armani, Betabrand, etc. has some. They look a bit obnoxious to me I'm afraid.
The site clearly shows nice 3D outputs created from a single static image. Even the video models are created from a single frame alone.
Also, Docker should have a reproducible flag that creates binary reproducible images. Timestamps and local system info would have to be nerfed to some default or fed in statically with a config file.
It's equivalent to a block cipher in which the block size is one letter.

This is actually sort of a useful intuition. Clearly we can see from the monoalphabetic cipher that if the block size is too small that's a problem. One of the things which was already known to be wrong with DES when it was standardized is that the block size (64-bit) is too small.

This is a double edged sword. Saying “little guy” makes it sounds like it’s always a noble cause that doesn’t get enough attention. It can also be an openly racist party, or perhaps a wealthy special interest group that wants some special treatment.

That analogy doesn’t work. Is Taiwan separate because it wants to keep abusing human rights and China wants to end those abuses?

No, the answer is no. If anything, your comment would only make sense if the confederates had won and instituted slavery everywhere in America, and taiwan was a small union hold out.

As it stands your comment sounds revisionist and dismissive of what the civil war was about.

You're right but as I've stated before, sentience and consciousness are different terms, and sentience has a definition in which the idea that animals are sentient isn't all that controversial. Not a mathematical axiom sure, but it all depends on what you mean by sentience, and I'm going by the classic definition.

Not saying i had the best work life balance, and ive learned my lesson of not wasting air time on deaf ears...

I was so enthusiastic after graduating .. i adopted the product, made it upgradable (8 year old repo, 1 programmer before me who was a sysadmin) - made it into a modern 12 factor app, before i even knew what that was.

One thing i learned is that innovators dont belong in certain environments .. those innovators didnt belong where they were .. and that was their wake up call, at least, it was mine.

Now i found a work place that appreciates me energy, and took me in as a fullstack dev and im so thankful, and careful. Im sure some devs there cant hear what i have to say. I learned, to speak less. Do more. Hobby? Ill make my own. A work place needs me to make it better - not to have me judge it .. its not easy thing to balance or properly execute if you Want to keep your soul.

For my next job, I was careful, it took me 4 months of interviews that tried to pitch a junior/mid and secretly wanted a senior .. but eventually, i found a home.

But sometimes its really necessary to wake up, and see that your efforts are being wasted, and move on. Left them better than i found them, and but i neglected myself and it was a valuable lesson in self care and the significance of my own time.

Another important lesson is growing beyond having milk teeth .. we should look around, and see where we are, and what kind of people are there ... are we making enemies, or injecting spirit?

Its no easy, those devs didnt belong in those companies to begin with. It was a life lesson to all involved.

>> we pay Cloudflare millions

>> just like any other system: it will fail eventually

An analogy combining these two points: one could pay a million dollars AN HOUR to the top software engineers alive on the entire planet… and at some point you will encounter failure. Technology and humans are both fallible, end of story. This is why SLAs exist with specific uptime targets to meet, and reimbursements should that SLA be broken. Anyone who believes the rare outage is unacceptable: fine; bring that layer in-house and pay engineers millions a year to do the best they can. You'll still encounter failures–and likely more of them.

The usual cry you'll hear from some business is "we lost $x million during the downtime!". Yes, and without some company like Cloudflare in front of your business, you'd probably be losing $x million multiplied by orders of magnitude you don't even want to imagine.

I'd argue that languages which force handling via the type system (e.g. `Result<T, Error>` in Rust) makes it less likely that bugs like this will go unhandled, since the position if the programmer does not explicitly opt out of error handling (with `unwrap` etc) is a compilation error rather than missing error handling.

Some of them never learn it at all!
I've written once an internationalized parser for another (more established) language. As long as you can output an AST, this works.

User feedback was interesting. Some non-native speakers of English objected to this, on the basis that it was a lot easier for them to distinguish language keywords (in English) from user symbols (typically in the user's language); language acted as a kind of syntax highlighter for them.

Also, they felt it disorienting to express in their own native language programming constructs that they'd learned in English. For example when one translates "a `while` loop", the keyword `while` is often left untranslated as there is no equivalent domain-appropriate word in the target language, and the generic translations don't "sound" right.

Except there's only really one stable coalition in Australia, and that's the coalition between the Liberal Party and some state divisions of the National Party (the Nationals in SA and WA, for example, are not part of the Coalition). The Lib/Nat Coalition has lasted so long that they are treated by the public as if they're one party, and indeed in Queensland and the NT they've merged. It's not a good example of political coalitions in general.

In recent years, there have been Labor-Greens and Labor-Nationals coalitions at a state/territory level, and of course the Gillard minority government federally, but they aren't stable - they last for as long as Labor can't form a majority government.

(Instant runoff voting doesn't necessarily tend towards formation of multi-party systems, it merely removes the risk of three-cornered contests that comes with FPTP (which is still a significant improvement for the chances of minor parties, obviously). The electoral system factors that really determine how multipartisan a political system is are whether you use proportional representation vs majoritarian (see Duverger's Law), and within PR systems, district magnitude. Proportional representation is the reason that in Australia you regularly see minority/coalition governments in the ACT and Tasmania but much more rarely elsewhere, and we see plenty of minor parties in upper houses rather than lower houses.)

I've given this some thought and developed a notion that I hope to actually implement. Critique welcome.

Large companies can identify innovators, or at least learn to do so. In some cases, it will be as obvious as the founders of companies they've acquired. In other cases, it may be simply polling the engineering and product management ranks and tracking down those who are considered innovative by their peers. Or, you may even make it egalitarian and offer developers a 'year of invention' after some number of years at the company.

One point I think is key is to create an environment that is conducive to innovation. Relaxed administrative obligations, flat organization structure and a budget. Nominal oversight and justification requirements. Then, a simple guideline: What is developed needs to be on a path to becoming a product or service the company could offer.

Innovators could be supported with HR for finding contractors or consultants to work with, purchasing for buying components or equipment, marketing and business development persons could be assigned to the program to help innovators with business plans, cost and pricing analysis, market research. The innovation organization could be placed in a work space with dedicated space for their project, and a common space to meet and collaborate with other innovators.

Rewards for successful products could simply be additional stock grants and recognition, or perhaps simply another tour of innovation.

The risks would be if the program were abused and budget misspent, or the innovator simply didn't do any real work, or went off the rails with their projects. Also, development projects could have many budget sizes from virtually nothing to multiple millions. Perhaps the business development partner could help with proposals to request additional budget, once prototypes were far enough along to be compelling.

A multi-billion corporation could easily allocate a few million to this type of environment and keep a dozen or so innovators busy. You'd only need one success every so often to make it worthwhile.

Judging from the past examples, they'd be corrupted at lightning speed - who wants to risk their life in some foreign country by playing a saint when all local "government" officials around you are on the take? What would motivate one to resist? The locals have patriotism, caring for their community and making better country, but foreign forces are just paid to do a job - so somebody could pay them 10x to do a different job or just to look the other way. It happened to UN forces many times.

How? What does tracking have to do with people being interested in your content? If you send good stuff, people will buy your things/services/etc and you'll see it in your bottom line without tracking. A single, respectful link to https://example.com/product?ref=email to attribute the conversion to an email would be fine as well as long as it's not per-user and does not involve third-parties (most tracking links out there involve a third-party and obfuscate the final target link).

Furthermore there might be GDPR implications as well. IP addresses as well as device fingerprints are definitely considered personal data, they are inherently sent as part of loading the tracking pixels and yet open tracking is not essential to providing the service, thus should be opt-in (and nobody in the right mind would opt-in).

I know that movie, I saw it. Also I watched their documentary, in it they actually traced documents that 2 centuries later stated that some national French archive achieved The beast taxidermy body and had a very clear description, which made them conclude it was a hyena.

I am very aware the difference between the movie and the documentary. Also in documentary they kinda accused the dude that shot it with silver bullets being the actual killer. According to their conclusion, the dude barely exited from the bishop that blessed his silver bullets and he encountered The Beast and shot it. They concluded that hyena was tamed by him and he simply call it and shot it to achieve fame. Then last frame in documentary was their detective team standing to some statue of that hunter that is erected in some village in France and concluding that France might celebrate a serial killer instead with that statue.
I am just astounded that anyone is taking this seriously. Epidemiologists have been warning us for decades about the increased likelihood of infectious diseases jumping from animals to humans with the exponential growth of the population and therefore, industrial-scale farming of animal. The intense proximity of animals and humans in these circumstances combined with the shortened lifespans of the animals involved means a virus that both spreads quickly and infects humans would thrive in such a situation.

This speculation is as irresponsible as it is baseless. You know as well as I do it would mean World War III.
lol. Elliot blowing up was fucking hilarious. Main take-away: high-quality 3d bovine renderings don't help to solve the "problem" of international shipping in e-commerce...

Their biggest edge that they failed to realize was the fact their pricing model was a % of each item sold, not a flat fee per month. However, it's hard to say I didn't see the fall of Elliot coming - their initial beta was an absolute cluster a mere two weeks before their slated "launch date".

Also, it's still unclear why some early founders at Parsley Health were involved with Elliot?

Play to your strengths. I'm a programmer (there's a good chance you are too if you're hanging out here), so my preferred technique is scalable content generation for SEO.

For example, I get about 90% of my 200,000 monthlies to my marketplace site selling law notes via two initiatives:
- I hired an UpWorker to generate 500+ short case summaries (perhaps 300 words each), and put them on individual pages on my website.
- I turned 30% of the PDF and DOCX documents people upload to sell on my website into HTML as free samples that can be picked up my Google.
