Now that you mentioned it, I remember running into this.

We would compute hashes out of some objects to compare for equality and it turned out we sometimes had more collisions than expected (orders of magnitude more), but this wasn't really reproducible. That was when I found out that the hashing algorithm wasn't deterministic. (Of course, the underlying cause was that our hash code calculations were not good and we had to fix them.)

> They don't mention sandboxing on their frontpage, at all.

But the apps themselves still show "Sandboxed" when they aren't[1]. It's trivial for the flatpak "store" to just hide "sandboxed" if the flatpak requires access in its manifest. The Microsoft/Windows Store does this. UWP apps are sandboxed and permission-managed, but if a store app requires full access, the permissions section[2] says:

> This app can

> Access all your files, peripheral devices, apps, programs and registry

Flatpak has portals for the same purpose. Unfortunately, many apps don't support portals yet. The Flatpak for Spotify does not allow access to home, only to the music directory (read-only). So, it's running in a proper sandbox too.
You just mentioned another of flatpak's disadvantages.

That's the thing: What's considered a "LARGE advantage" is highly subjective. Not something you can really quantify.

I've always wondered how people who advocate for more open borders justify their position. Could you expand? Naively I would think regulating borders is an essential function in maintaining rule of law - undocumented workers are fodder for exploitation. But I'm honestly open to being wrong.
It's that argument of you let yourself get conned so it's your fault. Therefore it's ok to con people. Nigerian scammers also are in this camp.

Luck is the meeting of preparation and opportunity itself. Luck is also the preparation. Preparing for something for which there will be an opportunity is luck. You never know what opportunities will appear (to you). Luck is even being able to prepare at all.

> Those opportunities don't present themselves until you have put in the work

Being able to put it the work, specially in tech, is absurdly lucky. Even out of tech, people are not just born with the skills required to put in the work and build a product – be it digital or not. Access to education is luck. Access to quality education is extreme luck. And a specific kind of luck that is presented to a few more than to most.

Luck plays a much bigger role than preparation and opportunity alone.
The "lite" version of certification in tech could be a requirement for a programmer equivalent of a Professional Engineer to sign off on any piece of software that becomes used in a product or service offered to people (whether commercial, public or by non-profit orgs).

This way, I'd be free to develop my Open Source library and engage in exploratory coding, and you'd be free to play with it internally, but if you want to use it in a product you sell to people, you'll have to get a licensed software person to sign off on your project. You probably won't want to waste their (and your) time on untrustworthy projects, so I'll have to get a licensed software person to sign off on particular releases of my library to certify quality, to make it more likely someone will want to use it.

This would introduce some inertia in software - not enough to be stifling, it won't pry away Turing-complete languages from the hands of curious children, but perhaps it'll be enough to introduce some sanity into the industry.

Fact is, we would have done the same after watching his video if we didn't know what PRs and FOSS contributions are. He doesn't explain what PRs are for, or what good PRs look like. He doesn't even teach how to use git for PR - all those spam are using Github's web editor. There is absolutely no clue given about the harm it would cause. For comparison, imagine a hardware DIY tutorial that never mentions any safety concerns.
This is actually fascinating, legally. What are they suing them for? Under what law or legal principle?

A maker of extensions never agrees to Facebook's ToS in the first place, so there's no breach of contract.

It would seem that only individual users could in theory be sued, though obviously Facebook would never do that because of the PR nightmare.

IANAL, so I'm really curious if anyone thinks Facebook could win this in court? (Regardless of whether it works by threatening to drown the extension maker in legal costs.)
I think there is vast potential for moving all kinds of activities underground. Upfront cost is huge, but once it's done as long as it's maintained it's there for good.

Climate change and the environment at large are orders of magnitude more important than 'privacy', on this planet, at this time.

This quote is not apt here because that's not what's at stake, and it misses the point completely, which is that claiming that privacy is the "most important concept of our time", apart from being a strange wording, is quite out of touch with the reality of the world's current problems.
I also use Netlify. On the free tier of Netlify a site is deployed to 6 points on the Netlify Edge CDN (Frankfurt, Singapore, San Francisco, New York, Sao Paolo, Sydney, Moscow as of August this year, but it might have changed).

On the free tier of Cloudflare a site is deployed to 194 locations. That can knock a couple of hundred ms off of a page load time. It might be worthwhile if you need something to be especially fast.

That said, Cloudflare is much more of a hassle to set up. Netlify is ludicrously easy. That's one of the many things I like about it.
Are you saying that privacy should be trade for less poverty, less unemployment, less debt, etc?

Lot of people do not have the luxury to focus on privacy concerns, the same way lot of people do not have the luxury to care or focus on climate issues. Does that make privacy and climate concerns something reserved for "people with privileged life"? It seems quite clear to me that's not the case. They are both a concern for everyone but some have more freedom to spend time caring about them. Lot of people are struggling with other more immediate issues, but that doesn't reduce in any case the importance of privacy.
Most fiction tends to be based at least in some part on reality, whether the author explicitly intended it or not (allegorically or literally).
When a measure becomes a target it ceases to be a good measure.

A test is a proxy for actual performance working on some useful task. The nature of useful work is usually that it can't be represented by two hours of multiple choice questions, whiteboarding, or anecdotes about "a time you disagreed with someone"; therefore, most tests will differ from the work. Learning to pass the test is easier than learning to do the work, but if you do that the test ceases to measure your work performance.

Violation of privacy might lead to the situation that someone will be unemployed forever because of something that he or she wrote 20 years ago on Facebook or employees managed to fetch data that a person was depressed, has many kids, etc.

Massive abuse of privacy will lead sooner or later to some kind corporate version of Chinese social score system. For now it looks innocent, someone gave you a bad ranking on AirBnB, who cares? But in 10 years some bad ranking on some future social platform might keep person homeless because nobody will want to rent a flat because someone's kids stained the walls in the rented apartment.

Those in poverty, unemployed, in debts will be first victims of such system.

Yes, this behaviour is rampant throughout Western society, it's pretty much embraced by capitalism. It's still "who cares about $x, as long as I can get my $y". It doesn't really change the argument much if $x is open source and $y is a free t-shirt, or $x is the habitat of these creatures and $y is gallons of oil.

Don't really see how postmodernism fits in with this though.
It turns out that when a woman sees an org chart with almost no women, or a Black person sees an org chart with almost no Black people, they have similar concerns.

The language issue is slightly separate factor, of course. Still, insisting that English be the language of business is a pretty huge privilege in favor of native speakers, which can be detrimental to the business when people are forced to communicate in their second language which is slower and less accurate than their native ability.

Independently of the rest of your argument, the claim that open borders make it impossible to enforce any kind of law is falsified by, for example, U.S. states and municipalities, which enforce their own laws and have open borders with each other.

There is a practical aspect to it, but a lot of it is pure drama. Yes, Brexit affects us. Brexit was also extremely dramaful.

If you are a woman, an awful lot of men treat you like you are nothing but a pussy to fuck and their entire interaction boils down to deciding if they would like to fuck you in specific or not and whether they want to fuck you or not, it's all downside for the woman. If they want to fuck you, they will be using you and mistreating you. If they don't want to fuck you, you will not be treated like a human being. You will be ignored, at best, or treated with open hostility.

I've spent a lot of years trying to "just be a human being" on the internet and, just like off the internet, the vast majority of men I run into find out I am a woman, wonder to themselves if they would like to sleep with me and regardless of the answer, the outcome is I will never, ever, ever, ever be treated like a human being. I will be treated only like a walking, talking sex object who utterly doesn't matter and has nothing whatsoever of value to add other than maybe sex and doesn't deserve any respect, any intellectual outlets, any friends, any money, etc. unless I am sleeping with some man who has an adequate income.

No, I am not exaggerating.

(Edit: I'm not an economist by training and I've realised Im not really sure about any of this, so maybe ignore everything after this paragraph. But certainly, here in the UK, house prices have more than doubled in the last 30 years after adjusting their prices for inflation, so inflation is nowhere near the whole picture.)

It is included but at a very different proportion from its actual impact on consumers. For example, the UK standard inflation index, CPI, includes the following items in its measure (as of 2017 [1]):

04.1 Actual rentals for housing: 5.6%

04.2 Owner occupiers' housing costs: 17.4%

(Also, I'm not sure whether "Owner occupiers' housing costs" only includes mortgage repayments, but that's the closest thing I could see on the list. And the way it's phrased in that list, with the word "actual rentals", makes it sound like price increases won't necessarily be reflected in the index so long as everyone were to downsize correspondingly - but I'm not clear about that one.)

It's like that because inflation is meant to reflect a very different concept than we're talking about here. We're talking about something becoming intrinsically more valuable (in this case, because of scarcity). Inflation is meant to judge when a currency has less intrisic value. So if a house price goes up by 100% but that's because it's twice as valuable, then in some sense the inflation there is 0%.

> So, to defend privacy we need to accept shared norms of behavior.

At least in the US, this simply doesn't appear to be possible. Look at how our lives have changed (or not) during the COVID pandemic. Look at the recent debate between 2020 POTUS candidates. We don't DO shared norms in the way that would be required to make true/complete/meaningful privacy a reality.

My expectation is that if it's on the Internet, if it's outside, if it's in a crowd... it's public (or can be made public). Everything you express can be observed and used, and that sucks. Does that have a chilling effect? Of course!

So maybe I just haven't seen Japan's dirty side - which was kind of what I was asking in my original post.
