That the solution to it- becoming intolerant towards intolerance- is an option that needs to be regulated. The default of society should be tolerance, and very well defined limits should be put on it, if the need arises. If any actor in society is free to decide what it is fine to to be intolerant to, then you have effectively given people license to be intolerant. Which is what is happening now.

So, to be clear: intolerance should be frowned upon by default. The community can decide to be intolerant towards some things, but those things must be agreed, shared and made clear once and for all. And at that point, that agreed-upon intolerance becomes a law and can be actually enforced by the state itself.

That is simply false. I'm fine with people making that claim about companies like Facebook and Google - they make most of their money selling advertising, so yes, in that sense, their users are a product they are offering to advertisers. But that's not how Garmin works.

Garmin provides products to us, and offers services that they hope will keep us in their ecosystem. Unless you have reasonable evidence that they are lying in their privacy polices, such as at https://www.garmin.com/en-US/privacy/connect/ , then you cannot reasonably make the claim you have made.

I read the parent link, and here's some comments:

- if the fight was in China, big deal. They have a history of pre-MMA technique, so most of their styles are only for show. (That's what the fake Shaolin monk, Yi Long, has been demonstrating recently online, defeating leading traditional opponents using intermediate kickboxing techniques.)

- fights in China are fixed, so Tim winning anything was unlikely without connections/graft

- it takes a special kind of asshole to proclaim being a winning fighter by exploiting loopholes that way. I hope somebody punches and breaks his orbital ASAP.

Respected fighters wouldn't fight or spar with anybody who writes that way. Tim didn't prove anything, except that he's an asshole who can't be trusted.

You can learn more about MMA from inside China on Ramsey Dewey's Youtube channel:

If you want to see what world-class MMA fighting looks like today, search on Youtube for "UFC Khabib" or "UFC Israel Adesanya". They would destroy anybody inside China in seconds.

Temporarily? Let’s face it - the US is not what we were lead to believe. Had it been any other country, the UN would have condemned it long ago for being an authoritarian country. Certainly we all watched in awe how china abducted HK protesters, beat them, threaten them with death and calling them terrorists for simply spraying grafitty on buildings.

In my mind the US is just a 2nd world authoritarian country with money and weapons. A danger to the free world.
I worry about a 'tragedy of the commons' type situation emerging here.

RISC-V isn't 'GPL' in any meaningful sense so the danger is that we effectively see a series of 'forks' by the most powerful SoC designers - they add their own instructions etc and use their designs to crowd others out. What if Apple and Samsung together forked ARMv8 added its own instructions and everyone started writing their code for that variant because of their market power?

I understand why ARM isn't necessarily the most popular firm and why the fees / control aren't ideal but I do think its important to think through the full implications of any market change like this.

yes, this is why, but if you understand what the trade off is, and decide that it's better, then it's not miserable. And if you also happen to enjoy the work, it's a win-win.

Bad China Takes: A Typology
From the linked Wikipedia article on Beringia [1]:

> Today, the average water depth of the Bering Strait is 40–50 m (130–160 ft), therefore the land bridge opened when the sea level dropped more than 50 m (160 ft) below the current level. A reconstruction of the sea-level history of the region indicated that a seaway existed from c. 135,000 – c. 70,000 BP, a land bridge from c. 70,000 – c. 60,000 BP, intermittent connection from c. 60,000 – c. 30,000 BP, a land bridge from c. 30,000 – c. 11,000 BP, followed by a Holocene sea-level rise that reopened the strait.

30-25 kya fits the data OK and there may have been open north-south corridors at that time. The question is how solid the Mexican evidence is.

The account I just read (linked from the other thread) suggested it was more just that they happened to set really ambitious targets and make a lot of big bets in 10nm, some of which simply did not pan out. Sounds like they may have ended up in a situation where diagnostic and investigation tooling also wasn't working properly due to the use of cobalt, so they'd have ended up with fabrication failures that were then difficult to investigate, as the debugging tools also weren't working. Painful.

> In his essay, Yes, We Have Noticed the Skulls, Scott Alexander notes that any intellectual movement that has been around for a while has made some mistakes, and is probably aware of them, so if there's some obvious failure of a movement, the people who still believe in the movement probably have learned from that failure. Communists are aware of Stalin murdering people and are wary of totalitarianism.

I'm not so sure about that. So far, we've had dozens of implementations of communism all over the world and 100% of them ended up being authoritarian (i.e. if you disagree with the ruling party, you go to jail) or straight up murderous. This uncanny correlation suggests that it may not be impossible to actually implement anything like communism without it being evil. Jordan Peterson explores reasons for why that might be so.

I'm a developer and pre-covid typically only stayed in the office until 2pm most days (lunch with the team, work for an hour then leave). I would tell everybody that I was going to work from home the rest of the day. Nobody ever cared. this is the future I dream of for all of us.
Not from the US but I think this a good decision. The economic policies of the last decade cannot convince by performance indicators and high tech nations as well as developing countries need some form of protectionism.

The EU for example, from its strongest but slightly naive fans held up as an example of border-less trade without restriction has similar approaches.

Otherwise I wouldn't know why they want reports how many of our parts we use are manufactured within the EU.
Right. The first worry is "will this be here tomorrow?" The second is "how much more will they end up charging?"

Why is that worse?

I'd be pretty pissed if my chance at exposure was blown because the one time it got spread virally it got spread without visible attribution. With visual attribution 10s of thousands or even millions of people see my name. Without visible attribution (having to click through to a larger version) I've effectively been robbed of $$$$$$ PR

I work on lots of open source and of course all my attribution requirements (BSD, MIT) don't require things to be upfront but I posted a photo online with my name in the corner and someone cropped it out I'd be pretty pissed.

I suspect for photos it's even worse. I have 7k photos CC-BY on Flickr. If people post them to twitter I doubt they add the required attribution. Maybe CC should start requiring or at least recommending attribution to be embedded in EXIF for images so that Twitter etc can automatic provide visible attribution AND include the same EXIF text that in any scaled versions they generate so that if someone reposts the scaled versions the attribution continues. Of course people can remove the EXIF or replace but that's not what we're talking about here. We're talking about some photographer getting unintentionally cheated out of PR.
well, I worked on a software house that makes software for industry automation. each user of the software has all their actions logged and time-stamped. if you edit something, give a big discount, granted permission, deleted something... it all goes into a different DB filled with just the logs. why doesn't Twitter have something like this? am I missing something?

An interesting point that this article does not mention, but which can be found in other articles [2] or the order [2]:

The judge issuing the order specifically stated that this court has reviewed and ruled on the the order so it is clearly established that it is legal and thus qualified immunity does not apply.

I had not previously seen that technique for (potentially?) avoiding qualified immunity.

> Just target the attack in the middle of the night

Define 'middle of the night'. Is that Eastern US, Western US, GMT, or CET?

If I assume it's 2 AM pacific (since Twitter HQ is in SF), that's 11 AM in most of Europe, which makes it middle of the day for about 700 million Europeans, many of whom speak English and are interested in US celebrities. And that's still ignoring the majority of the World.

Anything on the internet is 24/7. Musk regularly tweets in the 'middle of the night' and I see those tweets come in while drinking a cup of coffee.

Also, Twitter has offices around the world and people don't collectively log out for lunch at a specific time, so there should always be people available to handle this type of incident. Provided they get the training and tools to do so.
Can you make a geolocation service from static files? 2^32 IP4 addresses with 2 floats per address would take only 34 gigabytes of storage. Put 256 addresses in a given file, and turn the other three octets into folders. E.g. https://example.com/192/168/0.txt would contain the location for addresses 192.168.0.0-192.168.0.255.

Would this be cheaper than running these services?
Its a well known dirty secret that consulates of all countries serve double duty as offices for foreign intelligence services. The two possibilities I see are either the US had intelligence of some particularly egregious use of this not-so-secret arrangement or the current administration has just taken an unthinkable sledgehammer to a serious diplomatic norm just to be "tough on china". The fact that biden is polling well in Texas and Trump's whole schtick in his ads is "Biden won't be hard on China", it seems likely to me that this whole thing is a reckless campaign stunt.

While the Houston fire department did show up, they respected Chinese sovereignty. In other words they did what a fire Dept is supposed to do for embassy calls, and the calls were not unfounded. The only other case I know of a consulate burning everything was the Soviets at the height of the Cuban missile crisis.

The best advice is hidden in one of the links in the article: Always include some sort of session identifier, as to identify all the log messages that belongs to a session or transaction.

The articles speaks briefly on log severity levels, which is key to manageable logs. Make sure to specify what levels the application uses, preferably in some design document if one is being used.

For example, high severity error messages, should be only situations that should not normally occur or problems internal to the organization. For example, end user invalid credentials is not a high severity error, but invalid credentials towards the backing data store is.

Personally I tend to keep log severity thresholds local to the session, because that's the kind of filters I normally want to write.
Meanwhile, the major social networks (if not all of them) are still very good at creating echo-chambers and filter bubbles. So nothing has changed since 2016.

In a parallel dimension, Facebook’s CEO is Black. How would that have affected its trajectory? Would it be even better? Would be all be on Google+ still? Or would we all be on Twitter? What startups that exist now are those otherworldly challengers, or collaborators? Would Facebook’s API perhaps be more open if their CEO were of a different race? Depends on the person of course, but it is an interesting inside baseball hypothetical.

If Zuckerberg ever runs for public office, he’s going to get sued if he doesn’t put the CEO hat down while in office doing official duties.

I personally think he should run just so he’s forced to answer unscripted questions live on tv. Much like the upcoming Congressional inquiries. Very interesting times.

Hello there,

My first question, Once the other method ie CF7 and Easysmtp are setupped then there's no problem as such, then why there's such need. I am not convinced that There's any need of Nostmp to that large extent. Let me know if I am missing something here.

Next, sending email via extension is not a viable option. Either you can add button which pops up the email interface would be good.

To make your extension and NoSmtp more valuable, you can add options to send bulk email via extension for free upto 10,000 email, which is the limit of mailjet if I am not wrong.
