The problem is that the programmers in the dotcom boom did have an altruistic motive that is why they can justify the privacy violations. They simply see themselves as the good guys and thus it is okay when they do the wrong things as long as it is for the greater good.
This framing concedes a lot of ground to the folks who seek to make voting more difficult.

Where rights are concerned, America typically errs on the side of potentially allowing an illegal action, with the threat of our notorious criminal justice system as the deterrent.

For example, we are willing to allow people to carry (without a license) long guns into grocery stores and restaurants under the presumption that they will act responsibly. We don't mandate speed regulators on vehicles. We let people pay bills with checks. Wall Street polices itself. We allow a lot of conduct that could lead to crimes. We aren't in the pre-crime business in America.

So to reframe: voting is not a lesser right than being able to carry an unlicensed rifle into a restaurant (which is legal in large parts of America). Let people vote by mail, punish them if they commit voter fraud. The burden is on those who seek to restrict voting to show why voting by mail warrants a much higher level of advance scrutiny than other areas of civil regulation.
Collective bargaining is always price fixing on the price of labour. So is the minimum wage. It also explicitly legal, and generally good for the common person.

In general, price fixing of the cost of labour is only found to be illegal price fixing when the people fixing the price are not (or not only) employees/workers. Which isn't the case here.

Ive seen one of the documentaries about this festival. IMO, I dont think the perpetrators set out to defraud anyone. I think they were just completely inept at what they were doing. They(Billy McFarland) got in over their head and realized way too late that they were. I suppose the case can be made that they did realize early enough that they could have called it off before the dumpster fyre that it was happened. Not doing so seems solid grounds for a fraud case. I think that it is also possible that if he had admitted failure there is a chance he could have salvaged the event and had it later.

That said I don't think it was an intent to defraud people or else they would not have even tried to put the event together. Why would all of this merch have been created if they just wanted to bilk investors and festival attendees? This is hubris and ignorance more than fraud.
This comment (and the original article) confuse me: GCP offers cloud functions as a lambda equivalent. K8s and lambda don't fill the same niche. The niche k8s fills doesn't have an AWS alternative, as far as I know.

Now whether that niche is useful is a question that I don't have an answer for.
I'm unsure why you think I'm addressing someone with the opposing position when I merely stated a rhetorical question:

> The real question is why voter license proponents are against the idea of giving a free voter ID to every eligible voter on their 18th birthday

Why is it that voter license proponents are against the idea of giving a free voter ID to every eligible voter on their 18th birthday?

It's frequently brought up in response to voter license legislation, but it is never incorporated into their proposed legislation. Why is that?

I have no idea what verification is done on the back end, but registering as a voter in CA is as simply as filling out a postcard and sending it in.

I'm guessing there isn't much verification, as I've heard of immigrants accidentally being registered to vote because they checked "Yes - I'm a US citizen" on a driver's license form.
It's almost like this is all more about interclass dynamics than skin color. But skin color is a convenient distraction and factionalism drives votes.

Poor people are the least likely to have the time and means to get any of these free IDs. To add to that, states like Alabama strategically place offices to make it even more difficult for e.g. people who do not have access to a car to get said ID.

The Social Security Card is a free document. They mail it to you without you having to present yourself anywhere. There would be far less objection to voter ID if this type of system was being proposed by proponents of voter ID.
Collective bargaining applies when you are demanding things from an employer. But in this case, drivers colluding to not accept ride-shares under a certain price would be demanding a price from the consumer (which again, ride-share companies are only taking a fraction of, so it really is a price-fix on the consumer). And under such a scenario where that was allowed by the Ubers/Lyfts of the world, drivers would certainly be private contractors, and therefore business entities in their own right. So price-fixing.

> There seemed to be an implicit claim that client-side load balancing is a win, but I couldn’t quite parse the argument.

Having 1 hop for load balancing (usually on a server that most likely isn't on the same rack as your application) is worse than 0 hop for load balancing in your localhost. No Single point of failure and much lower chances of domino effect if a configuration goes awry.

> When would you choose this approach to wiring services together, as opposed to consciously building more or less everything as a service with an endpoint, in the AWS style?

I do not understand this. What's "wiring services together" vs "service with an endpoint"? They both are one and the same thing in context of gateway vs service mesh. Maybe you should read this - https://blog.christianposta.com/microservices/api-gateways-a...

> but as with most K8s demos, assumes that you’ve everything up and running and configured

Because that is what the whole "Cloud" thing is about. You don't pull out an RJ45 everytime you need to connect your server to your router, you just assume your cloud provider did it for you. You don't compile your own Kernel & OS to run your services, you just use a Linux Distro and get over it. Kubernetes is supposed to be a cloud offering, you are not supposed to configure and run it.

Still, is there, a bit of a code smell happening or is that just me?

Because you weren't paying attention to the Speaker. He clearly mentions the drawbacks to sidecar as proxy model - additional latency (although the latency is much lower than that of a single Gateway architecture, but even 1ms could be disastrous for some applications). To cater to this high performance crowd they have envoy as an application library model, which is of course more difficult to adapt, but worth it when the added latency drops to nano seconds.

Well, look at it this way: you left your home in the morning for work, went to lunch, went back to work, met a friend for coffee, dropped by the office to pick up your stuff, then got home and found you didn't have your wallet.

You know that, in the past when you lost your wallet, you dropped it somewhere or you left it behind somewhere. However, because you are a free individual and because the universe is full of possibilities (including the event that the quantum froth poofed your wallet away and created an identical one in your hedge), you can do practically anything now in search of your wallet. Do you:

* Retrace your steps to see if your wallet is anywhere along the path

* Call your mother and see if she has your wallet

* Begin a global wallet-hunt in case the wallet was transported to Cuba

Like most people you have an intuitive understanding of what to do: Given limited resources you should allocate them in order of decreasing likelihood of success.

Most things do not lead to life. Our prior on "There is silicon-potassium self-replication on Charon" is pretty low because our prior on "X self-replication" is pretty low for most things.

Try it out. Suggest an alternative and honestly set your priors on it, then condition those priors on the evidence that you have seen on Earth, and the limited evidence from the Moon and Mars. Now look at those posteriors for your alternative and compare it with the kind of life we know. Almost certainly microscopic, but if it isn't, you should publish.

The whole point is that Uber isn't actually treating its drivers like contractors. Any theoretical benefit to being a contractor is not really relevant if they don't have those rights in practice.
The feds seem satisfied to allow Uber to classify workers as contractors so far, and California doesn't, so yes, the rules do vary.

People who work for Uber as contractors can accept or decline rides, and only accept rides at a rate they want, so yes they are setting their rates. Just as a software contractor can accept or decline a job based on the rate offered. You're entitled to accept work at a rate you want, but you are not entitled to be guaranteed work at the rate you want.

This country has a bad racial history, including disenfranchising Black people by charging people money so they could vote. So basically that's a non-starter because we know where that road goes.
It generally is public information in which elections a voter has voted.

You cannot see how they voted, but you can see that they voted.

This is how all political campaigns know which people always vote, which people usually vote, which people sometimes vote, and which people never vote.

For example, in Washington State there is a voter registration database. These are public records that can be requested from the state (https://www.sos.wa.gov/elections/vrdb/default.aspx). In them, the date that the person last voted is listed (see "lastVoted" in column 36 https://www.sos.wa.gov/_assets/elections/vrdbdatabasefields....).

In addition, King County ballots come with a unique identifying code that you can look up on their website to see if your ballot was received or counted (https://info.kingcounty.gov/kcelections/vote/myvoterinfo.asp...).
In a nutshell, high explosives detonate, low explosives combust. The two processes are distinctly different in how they operate at the molecular level. Basically, detonation is when a shock wave goes through the material, causing it to "blow up" on a molecular level as it passes (the molecules split as the shock passes through). Combustion happens much slower and is usually a chemical reaction involving some sort of fuel and oxidizer that is mixed and burned. I'm not an expert, but you can see the difference in a gasoline engine. As you crank up the compression ratio the air/fuel mix in the cylinder will eventually undergo a change from combusting to detonating, producing engine "knock" and rapidly destroying your engine if you let it continue. On a gas motor, around 13:1 is a good spot to see this happen. Someone will have more for you, but I think this is the basic concept seperating the two.

You should watch both documentaries. It's weird how they have entirely different people in them, and they spin things slightly differently.

I do think McFarland was a scam artist. His past history of scams shows he's one of these hustle culture people who commits outright fraud, and he deserves more jail time than he got.
> In an explosion, however, the devilish little instigator that is oxygen shoves the process into overdrive.

It's a great article, and I know that I'm being pedantic, but chemical explosions need not involve oxygen. For example, consider acetylene and silver acetylide, with a carbon-carbon triple bond. Or lead azide, with a nitrogen-nitrogen triple bond.
Even if this article is a satire peace, it’s extremely ignorant.

What about the people that earned their keep as category one? For example I have friends who are refugees who now fit into bracket one.

This article makes it seem like category 1 are self entitled yuppie brats.

MOST IMPORTANT:train your motivation.

Do the exercise. Don't avoid it. But go easy on yourselves people!

Go easy physically:
It's fair you(and me) are a bit out of shape. Don't go hard and smash yourself, then never do it again. Make it a task as easy as folding washing. It may be a boring necessity but you don't fear washing do you? Take care of your limits!

Go easy mentally:
Talk to yourself the way you would talk to someone else.
IE No supposedly motivational "Lets get to work fatty/tryhard/retard!" in your own head.

Maybe a simple "It is easy to do, lets get this done. :-)"

You deserve as much respect from yourself as from others. If you are prone to such negative mental thoughts, say it out loud, talk to yourself quite literally and hear how mean it is. You are the only person you will be with every moment of your life, be nice.

I guess its clear this implementation is quite garbage and doesn't scale - I'm using Apollo GraphQL and polling for updates which is probably overloading the backend.

Really sorry to have wasted some of your time :(

Thanks to all giving feedback anyways!

Calling it a VPN muddies the point you are tying to make.

People think of a VPN as a secure perimeter (like a thick ship's hull), but BeyondCorp is layered security (like the many smaller compartments within a ship that can be isolated in case of a hull breach).

Illegal in one state with a vendetta against them
Yeah, I've got a dozen or so track days under my belt, and have done some car control/teen driver instruction as well.

I no longer feel the need/desire to "go for a spirited drive" on the weekends, or whatever. Part of that is age, part of it experience, I suppose. But I very much enjoy a good run at an on-ramp or particularly nice section of open road from time to time.
It depends on how sophisticated your needs are. I mostly run python programs of my own on a single computer. I tell the distribution-provided pip to install an upgraded pip separately (pip3 install --user -U). I install everything using pip3 install --user and under no circumstances run any pip commands as root. So far, I have not needed foo-env or docker.
For a second I got excited this would be a “HP” lovecraft themed software blog post
> chemical explosions need not involve oxygen

They do need an oxidiser though. Which may or may not involve oxygen. You’re right of course, but redox itself has some poorly chosen jargon.
You do not need a home or address to vote. You can setup your mail to be sent to a shelter, a social worker, or any number of other options. The US Postal Service has also been known to deliver to places that don't have official addresses so you might even be able to get something delivered to the "red tent behind the Walmart". You can also generally pick up whatever you need from the local elections office.

Numerous services exist to provide free rides to polling places including some publicly owned transportation options.

The right to vote does not excuse you committing crimes in order to vote and being naked is generally illegal is most of the US which would probably be what prevents you from voting without clothes.
Let's consider me, an IT contractor. I have a profile with IT staffing agency. They offer me contracts with a predetermined rate that I can accept or decline; I was offered an exclusivity contract for additional 5% income, but I declined. Why is me, an Uber driver so different that I am to be forced to be an employee?
Yeah, this is becoming very apparent to me also. Thanks for the feedback
Two things.

Firstly, if you consider that Uber is only an intermediary and nothing else, then the consumer is the employer. Making this collective bargaining, Employers are consumers in the labour market. Price fixing is always against the interests of a pure consumer, including collective bargaining. Unions are beneficial because (and only if) the vast majority are workers much moreso than consumers.

Secondly, as we have seen, since the money is paid to Uber, and Uber decides how much the rides cost and to who they are assigned when, as well as the fact as Uber pays drivers, and in combination with the fact that drivers are the core business of Uber, they are indeed employees, and this is collective bargaining.

In both cases, it is collective bargaining. If the consumer is the rider, and they directly pay with a cut to Uber the fare, as well as decide the price they are offering and control how the ride goes, then the driver is the employee. In the real world and according to California statute, the driver is the employee (of Uber).

Therefore, it is collective bargaining.

Another problem with silicon is that its basic oxide (Silicon Dioxide) is a solid that is non-reactive with virtually everything.

If you assume water based life, there is almost certainly going to be oxides involved, such as how CO2 is involved with earth life.

And I think water based life chemistry is an extremely good bet, because alternative liquids based off of light, common elements are either only liquid at very low temps, (ammonia, methane) extremely reactive ( Hydrogen fluoride, hydrogen sulfide), or both.

Another consideration with silicon is that the earth contains vastly more silicon than it does carbon (in many ways life on earth is fairly carbon starved), yet life based on carbon arose, not silicon.
No, mail in ballots good because orange man said it's bad.

It's straightforward in the text-based formats used to create man pages (troff) and in subsequent native documentation formats: Texinfo, various Wiki and Markdown-inspired syntaxes, etc. It might be that relatively little documentation is created in Word by people who want the process to be as efficient as possible (as opposed to copy-writers who charge by the hour).
Yes, that's true, but the 12-16 layer masks were ostensibly superior to single layer masks. The authors seem to treat "12-16 layer" masks as somewhat equivalent to surgical masks throughout the article, which might answer my original question.

"For the general public, evidence shows that physical
distancing of more than 1 m is highly effective and that face
masks are associated with protection, even in non-health-care
settings, with either disposable surgical masks or reusable
12–16-layer cotton ones, although much of this evidence was
on mask use within households and among contacts of cases."

In another part, they compare 12-16 layer/surgical masks to single-layered masks, ranking the single-layered as less effective.
