Awesome, it's good to see more options in the backend/no-JS analytics space. Netlify has a product but it is of course limited to Netlify-hosted static sites. Cloudflare Analytics appears to be a lot more flexible since you only need to be using them for DNS in order for it to work.
how does it not fit into that worldview?
Fwiw, this bug must have been introduced more recently than Mavericks. I just tested moving my login keychain from one Mavericks computer to another Mavericks computer, and it worked fine. iCloud Keychain disabled on both machines.

Since many if those links are from when Yosemite was current, it wouldn’t surprise me if that was when the bug was introduced. Yosemite made a mess of things in a lot of ways, and Apple has never recovered.

>We can go back and forth naming differences between phones and consoles: phones are smaller and have cellular chips, consoles are usually connected to TVs -- but if you can't say why a difference is so fundamental that they should be treated as entirely different classes of things then it doesn't matter.

Here's the fundamental bit:

For the vast majority, it's the primary (often only) way to connect with friends, family, colleagues, employers, news, government services, education, wayfinding, banking, emergency services, the entirety of the worlds information, and the world economy.

It also contains peoples most personal thoughts, search history, intimate conversations/photos, location history, political affiliations, and social graph.

For most of the disabled and/or isolated, it affords them a degree of dignity and inclusion that is life changing.

The above is doubly true in a post Covid world.

So, you can't artificially limit the discussion to technical similarities. The societal implications (the real fundamentals) should matter more than anything. Do you really want a world where we make our decisions based on what's best for society, or solely on what is technically true (smartphones and consoles are both just computers!)

We already treat things differently solely because of their importance to society, safety, health, and the economy. Yes, that does mean smartphones are, in a way, victims of their own success because they will be treated differently.

But that's not any different from other fundamental inventions in history (the printing press, banking, emergency services, automobiles, communications, etc).

NOTE: I'm not advocating for, or against, any specific policy. I'm only pointing out why equating consoles and smartphones is denying some very basic realties about how much the economy and society relies on smart phones (compared to consoles).
Well, you can use the telephone. You can write letters. You can visit people in person (or you could six months ago).

You can pay bills via mail, or even in person. You can go to a physical ATM (or even into a bank lobby) and get physical money. All that is doable.

Where I can't quit the internet is professionally. Especially with so many people not in the office, there is no way we can function without the internet.
I don't. There aren't any open wifi networks anywhere near my home, though. I assume if it did that someone would have noticed by now. That's a naive assumption, but given how many people actually look for such behavior, it's not entirely out of the realm of possibility.
I've mentioned it before, but JSON Numbers are arbitrary-precision floating-point. They can't be naively stored as JavaScript numbers in all cases, since JS numbers are IEEE754 double-precision floating point. Likewise, you can't store arbitrary JS number values in JSON Numbers, since it doesn't handle IEEE754 exception values (qNaN, sNaN, ±INF).

So if you're trying to publish data from a GPS chip that reports fix failure by setting the latitude and longitude to a NaN (possibly with a failure code in the exception value) you can handle that in JS but only through some intermediate representation in JSON.

That problem should definitely be solvable. I used MJEPG to create my own streaming server that wasn’t mjpegstreamer and even with HTTPS and reverse proxying there are ways to detect when to stop sending the data, though it isn’t fun to find all the edge cases.

I need to revisit and update that project sometime but it was a very neat event loop C implementation that reads frames from a cheap consumer webcam and without doing any reencoding feeds it to connected sockets as an MJPEG stream (it does have support for re-encoding if the camera can’t produce JPEGs). Was a really fun exercise in minimalism and efficiency as my goal was to stream multiple cameras from a single Raspberry Pi back when they were super slow.

I've heard a similar thing about paying a plumber for knowing where/how to strike the hammer. It also occurred to me that some of my work looks trivial when done--a very small source change that fixes broken edge cases by making something invisible more regular or consistent.

I suppose your adult/child dichotomy is meant to be an insult and not taken literally, but I have to say that it's just as important for children/young people to intentionally seek out different opinions. Maybe even more so than adults, because that's when the bulk of your worldview, beliefs, and personality are formed.

From my experience, young people are better at it than adults, too.
Someone might listen because they believe the world is more complicated than a one-dimensional 'political' model would imply, and that the vast majority of reality and the human experience lies outside of the select few categories that exist in any given society at the moment.

The way you state this, you make it seem as though people go to only one news outlet for their information. If this is the case I agree with you that news outlets have a responsibility to ensure their algos are as unbiased as possible.

However....

If people only go to one outlet for their source of news then that mistake is on them. Their choice to select Facebook for example for their primary source of news intelligence, is frankly frighteningly ignorant, especially after countless stories about FB have come out over the years showing how they manipulate their algos.

It's like people only going to CNN for their news. Most people know that news outlets like CNN are biased and report false information sometimes (eg Russian election conspiracy).

A.I isn't the problem in my opinion. The problem is our creeping reliance on A.I to solve our inherent laziness. What I mean is that instead of DYOR on a topic, which may entail actual research from different sources and different points of view and then making up our own mind on the subject, we rely on being bottle fed biased opinions about subjects from questionable sources without the need to think, only to react.

If you want to learn humanities, you can pretty much read any book anytime in your life (in fact most of the teaching in humanities is just assigning books to read).

The pragmatic part of humanities is argumentation and writing. You can't get that from just reading.

What you're saying is like "the value of a computer science degree over just reading programming books is marginal." It's ignoring that the most important part of the learning happens in application.
A decent explanation of recent FCRA Amendments.

Interesting - I view it the opposite way. In JavaScript, you need to know the details of exactly one numeric type: the regular, standard IEEE 754 float that's used by Java, Python, C++ (generally), and every other programming language under the sun. That's it! There is only one way to do it ;)

These days, if you need huge integers, you can use BigInt, but if you want to use it in an expression that also contains floating point values, then you need to explicitly convert it. Explicit is better than implicit.

Democracy requires an educated population. If you want to live in a democratic society, then subsidizing education is pretty much a requirement.
>2) Crime / Danger ( debatable here, but the school shootings in the past few years hasn't helped

How is this debatable? The US is likely more dangerous than any comparable European country. Not just shootings but crime across the board.
Wow, so I'm not sure if it's because it's aimed at an audience slightly different than me, so the triggers fall flat, or if it's just really clumsily done, but I've honestly never seen something that is so obviously a hit piece and reaching for anything it can find.

E.g. Amnesty is bad because their higher ups are mean people. Amnesty is bad because they said stuff in twitter that we want to interpret as attacking cows. Amnesty is bad because they work with a Muslim in guantanamo bay about prisoner rights that says stuff about middle east fighters.

Edit: To clarify, I'm not taking a stance on whether AI is in the right or wrong, or the Indian government is right or wrong, since I don't really know, but this piece is obviously designed to make AI look bad through techniques that aren't useful, such as guilt through association (because it's much easier to color the associate when people are less familiar with them), providing little context but plenty of assumptions about intent for short bits of speech, etc.
XML and JSON are not immune to similar problems, but in my experience you run into it head first with YAML more because when copy/pasting YAML stanzas from one document to another, the indentation can (and often does) get mangled. Since whitespace isn't meaningful you can paste a JSON or XML object as without the whitespace, parse the document and then reformat it to display it nicely. With YAML if the whitespace gets mangled on paste then the document can't be parsed to begin with so the tools you generally use to debug such issues are largely useless. You are effectively back to raw text.
I recently started migrating a chunk of my personal domains to Cloudflare's registrar service, just to ensure that my renewal costs were being minimized and check out some of their other offerings.

I always thought of Cloudflare as mostly a WAF/CDN/DNS option but I was really shocked to see all of the available functionality that they provide. They already had some analytics available before this announcement. The option for workers as an edge computing option is great to know about as well. CNAME flattening is a really handy DNS feature too. I'm going to eventually migrate everything, but the built in email proxy that I've had with Namecheap to this point means that I've got to go setup a replacement for each domain.

But I didn't realize that they'd even created a remote friendly business networking service. Cloudflare Access and Cloudflare Gateway specifically. I'm a little shocked that I haven't seen more news about these two options because it seems like their usage would be skyrocketing right now.
Smae with Microsoft and internet explorer. People could just choose not to buy windows. I guess anti trust laws have changed in the interim.
JSON Numbers are arbitrary precision floating point. JavaScript numbers aren't necessarily numeric, they can be NaN or INF. That disconnect isn't a bug, but can cause problems if you naively convert from one to the other without handling the edge cases.
Agreed. This article didn't distinguish between "problems caused by Big Data" and "problems caused by your aunt on Facebook who would disown you if you post the wrong thing."

I can't keep from thinking this is a misguided step. If they are going after the google analytics market of non paying users maybe they are able to lure some, but remember that these are non paying users so they are not likely to bring much revenue anyway, google can justify because it sells the value of their ad business. On the other hand there's an enterprise market they just can't compete with, a market Google is #2 and Adobe is #1.

So they are spending a lot of valuable eng cycles and a ton of computing resources to go after a very narrow and low revenue market.
I was taking a globalist approach, of course it's not realistic.

This view was inspired by a documentary (called Zeitgeist if I'm right), where machines provide subsistance to humans, so humans can focus on creative and artistic tasks without having to focus (including science).

It's a far-fetched view, but in the long-term, I believe (and again, it's just a personal belief) that sharing is caring and that caring is very important. You certainly need a way of subsistance but I see that the incentive are incorrect.

The person who fixes the door locks for example, has incentive to charge you the most and make the process as difficult as possible, not to go the fastest away from your place.

I'm in favour of a system where everyone gets a basic income (to subsist for shelter, food and all basic needs) and they can (but don't have to) work if they want extra money.

You're right, not all the pieces fit together, but it's an interesting thought to start with :)
I agree Python is the better language, but they have quite different origin stories. JavaScript was thrown together in very short order, and has gradually evolved since then. It was a good enough first-to-market scripting language for the browser, got standardised, and has been the client-side scripting language of the web ever since. It's evolved somewhat since its early days but is backward compatible.

If I understand correctly, Python had a more considered initial design, and had a clean-break overhaul in Python3, allowing it to evolve without accumulating as much cruft and inconsistency. (Python is famous for its philosophy of there should be one—and preferably only one—obvious way to do it.) People use Python by choice: unlike JavaScript where browsers support no other scripting languages, Python won out over its rivals in fair contest.

All things considered, JavaScript isn't that bad. Used correctly it can be elegant and powerful. It has some nasty dark corners, but it generally provides all you need to avoid them, if you know your way around. With modern JIT engines it can even be pretty fast. Its curious use of doubles is just the kind of thing modern JIT engines are able to be smart about, compiling down to use integer operations where possible.

There are physiological differences between caloric restriction and fasting approaches. Fasting naturally ends up in ketosis where you body has switched to using lipids as your primary fuel and hgh supports that process. This isn’t the case with normal caloric restriction diets generally speaking.

Continually eating keeps insulin levels up, suppresses hgh production and unless you’re very intentional about it, keeps you out of ketosis making your primary fuel glucose instead of fat. Your body also produces substantial amounts of noradrenalin while fasting.

Further compliance is another area where you may see differences. A lot of people find it much easier to eat nothing at all than to count and document each calorie. Certainly if ketosis if your goal where getting to that point takes few days and accidentally eating a few grams of sugar physically switches your brains primary fuel source from ketones to glucose.

Lastly the other big difference between continuous caloric restriction and fasting is that your metabolism will slow down when you’re on a CR diet to match your new food intake level over time. I can find some studies. However that is not true of fasting approaches.

The reality is weight loss via caloric restriction is incredibly hard. WeightWatchers for instance published a study that showed people on their program were less likely to lose weight than the general public. Caloric restriction diets generally simply do not work. You can always blame compliance or the participants but at the end of the day the goal of a weight loss program is to have compliance.

The reality is your body is in a very different mode when you eat nothing as compared to when you’re eating a little less.
Are you running a 64 bit kernel actually? Which distribution?

This article just shows how the government has forced a fairly well-regarded NGO to close down its efforts in the country. How could you possibly call that democratic? How are nonprofits supposed to operate in a country if they should only be funded from domestic sources?

note that this is a marketing site (as noted in my other comment[0]), so discount appropriately.

social pressure predates humans. it's pervasive and our teenage years (especially) are spent coping with/negotiating that. the difference with facebook is that it's potentially unbounded in reach and visibility (in nearly all cases it's not, but every once in a while, something blows completely out of its social circle). as with many modern phenomena, the risk-aversion this induces is out of proportion with the actual risks because of that potential (but not actual) reach and visibility, amplified by memetic social networks that trade in novel (whether true or false) information. in short, the worry over the effects of offense are greater than the potential effects themselves.

I checked Lancaster->NYC on Google Maps and Amtrak and it looks like Amtrak is about 30 minutes longer on a ~3 hour trip, depending on the exact train. Traffic on Maps may be playing with those numbers though.

Given how prevalent plastic is, my suspicion is that glass is more expensive than plastic. Single use glass seems like a waste, though I haven't run the numbers.

Unless we can get to reusable glass. Living in US and walking the aisles of the local supermarket, I don't see how that's possible. The glass-packaged foods come from all around the world, with each company apparently intent on having its own distinctive glass shape. As 'recyclable' material ends up in the landfill more often than not for cost reasons, it seems a monumental task to build a 'reverse distribution' path to send back glass containers thousands a miles away to their original producer for reuse.
I agree with the spirit of your words. I think that the subtext of your post (or at least people that espouse similar things on the internet) is that this is the fault of a certain brand of American politics (left leaning, "SJW" types) that don't engage with many right-leaning people.

The frustrating (and silly) thing is that this argument is used a lot to attack left-leaning folks who _do_ engage with many people whose experience and world view are very different from them... like people who are homeless, immigrants from other countries, people who are racially minoritized, people who are disabled.

For many people who don't experience those kinds of life experiences, building relationships with those folks can be really tough and bring into question a lot of the foundations of their world view.

The argument that left-leaning people won't engage with right-leaning people often feels like it's used as an excuse for right-leaning folks to use rhetoric and hold positions that routinely disenfranchise and threaten the safety of the kind of people that left-leaning people have worked to empathize with and build relationships without consequence. That the people who continue to have right-leaning views don't seem interested in putting in the same _effort_ to empathize and build relationships with people other than themselves is both hypocritical and not surprising to me.

Finally, engaging with "challenging" opinions is all well and good as a mental exercise, but building and maintaining a relationship with someone is a project that requires continuous work (even as just a friendship) and I think it's worthwhile to be selective in the people who you put in that kind of work for.
