You don't risk arrest for taking part in a lawful demonstration in France.

You may risk arrest if you "come prepared", or don't follow police orders to move on or back off.

During the Yellow Vests protests some people showed up with helmets, gas masks, and home-made shields, then complained that the police were infringing on their right to 'peaceful' protest when they were prevented from joining the demonstration or arrested...

Dress like if you were out for a walk, which you are, and behave in the same way, and the police won't do anything to you.
Nice thanks!!!
No, I believe we can refund ourselves payments on the play store (or at least I'm pretty sure we at least used to)
> should all of that surplus value only be captured by the technology owners?

No, and neither is that the case. The increased profit is the wage the technology earns for the investor who wisely chose to make a successful investment. Other investors made different, less wise automation decisions and in so doing, earned less (or negative) profit.

The remainder of the surplus value is captured by the consumer who now has available to him or her a greater variety of higher quality products at lower prices. They capture this value when they go to market and get more better and newer things.

> What about the people who build and service the technology which allows these improvements to be implemented?

They are typically more skilled workers who get paid more because they are performing a higher skilled job. The old way of doing things was less productive and required less skill from the workers. The new way is more productive and requires greater investments in capital and skilled labor.
Enabling 2FA by default is probably a good idea, but I do believe quite strongly that users should be able to turn it off. You don't know the user's situation—maybe they don't have consistent access to a single phone, for instance—and if they actually use a strong and unique password, that should be sufficient.

Additional factors are of course always safer, but everything is a trade-off between security and usability, and users should have control.

Even here there is a definitive and deliberate bump right during the beginning of the COVID times. I don't believe that's an artifact. Somehow this analysis is saying people are vastly better in August than they were in February.

I think that "average" in most of the different versions is useless. The millionaire and billionaire classes can be so over-represented they can draw the rest up. It doesn't answer if all of society is actually becoming more well off or just the cream continuing to rise.
Likewise. But I bet that’s exactly how Instagram-addicted teens think too!
I want him to continue telling the Postgres Story.
They offer that information as criteria the ad campaigns can select for. The criteria could be pieces of specific datum or analyzed conclusions (e.g. predicted sexual orientation, political affiliation). Those conclusions may be inaccurate but they are still more accurate then trying to make those conclusions in a tv/print campaign. So it's still effective.

There may well be a company selling big-ass belt buckles with anime themes that is trying to reach you. When designing their ad campaign they could say they want people with an interest in anime/manga AND interest in westerns, trucks, boots or jeans. They would have no way to do that with a traditional media campaign.

firefox 80 shipped late August & is the first with Linux gpu support under x. wayland was already supported, it seems, since 75.

81 is three weeks old & is the first release that will have Linux video gpu support enabled by default. source: https://9to5linux.com/firefox-81-enters-beta-gpu-acceleratio...

note that this is firefox at large. no idea whether the pi supports the standard va-api acceleration interface or what other potential blockers the pi has.
I think context is important here.

Is this at work, or a side project? Are these fixes adding to the workload or requiring additional hours?

If this is like at a company, they may have the same mindset as me - suggesting new work will only lead to added hours with no reward. I would be more motivated to work on side projects.
These problems mostly seem to come from trying to use Julia in some kind of visual studio paradigm. The key is to leave the REPL running, I find. Then, with Revise.jl the speed is insane because nothing has to start up; only the changes you make will be recompiled during execution. Also take a look at Pluto.jl.

Edit: By the Visual Studio paradigm, I mean a paradigm where all the stuff is made around visual interactions with the IDE. For example, showing autocomplete which works because the programmer is very constrained in OOP (foo.b completes to foo.bar) and statically typed languages with Java and C# as prime examples.

I think these constraints are made around the idea that programmers are dumb and that it mostly is a distraction from how one actually wants to think about the problem at hand.
Ok, the situation seems to be: brother and sister cofounded startup; startup failed; brother acquired failed startup’s assets via legal proceedings.

Which part of this is illegal, or — I’ll meet you halfway — unethical? It seems like a straightforward business transaction.

If I’m missing something nefarious, I’d like to educate myself to avoid it. What do you see as the problem?

(Apologies if my facts are incorrect; this is info from elsewhere in the thread, so maybe you know something that hasn’t been said yet.)
> and phishing shouldn't work if something like TOTP is implemented correctly

TOTP codes can be phished. Hardware-based 2FA is a different matter, but SMS and TOTP 2FA doesn't fully protect against phishing.
One of the issues with teaching evolution is the brain-dead treatment that it has in films and television.

No, if you start with cellular life you will not get to humans every time. You can't even be sure you will get to fish or other animals with internal skeletons.

So many random things can be different at each step of the chain and there are so many steps, millions of them.
I used to work alongside Adora at YC and she works super hard for the startups she is working with and is very helpful — totally justified for her to be there.
Good point.

I assumed Broadcom would be happy to have a platform as popular as the Pi using it's SoC. There must be a lot of companies out there prototyping on the Pi (because it's probably one of the easiest dev-board to get started on).

The wild thing is that even if you were to apply Scandinavia's highest tax bracket of 57% to this (which someone in the lowest tax bracket would never pay), you'd still come out above the US national minimum wage, out of which one is also expected to pay for healthcare and budget for unpaid time off.

Transport Fever is a very satisfying train game. The early game is all about making the business profitable. After that, resources are basically unlimited. The end game plays like a giant tabletop train simulator, with a focus on fitting to terrain while minimizing gradients and tight turns.

Factorio also has a very satisfying train mini-game, with a focus on complex signaling and dynamic pathing. Thankfully, there are dials to tune down combat. I like to use the "rail world" preset, which disables enemy expansion.
Am I agreeing with you then? You didn't make your position very clear. I'm just stating what I think about wage inequality and class gaps.

If you're asking for an actual number of the price of a Cheeseburger and a Shake? I don't know, but it may be a number that's ultimately better for society?
Another way of thinking about it is that when switch to a new language, we have to start over building nice tools for it, which seems inefficient. It's like doing a big rewrite.

That's less true than it used to be. Julia wouldn't be where it is without LLVM, and things like VS Code's language server protocol do help. But there is still a lot of redoing things for people who write language tools.
The interviews are brutal. But they don't consistently identify talent. I know a lot of people at all of them and turn down interviews nearly constantly (Apple is the only one I've considered - the rest violate my ethical standards. And I'm not going to commute to Cupertino).

There's a lot of deadweight at these companies.

I had the same reaction, but then I was delighted they included these smaller examples. It was especially interesting to hear about the desktop search startup from the summer founder’s program.

There’s an inclination to view this sort of thing as adversarial / picking on the founders, especially because there are a lot of haters for successful people in general. But this piece seemed clinical, not critical.
The repo that you're linking to isn't an implementation of the M compiler. Rather it's the rules/definitions that are used to compute the income tax (« Impôt sur le Revenu »).

The M compiler reimplementation linked in this submission allows you to actually execute those rules and perform simulations.
I don't know for other countries, but in France Enedis (in charge of the distribution network) indicated that the network can support no more than 6% of H2. IIRC higher proportions of H2 would actively deteriorate tubes and stuff (I don't know the details, but apparently it can even react with certain materials and make them brittle for instance).
Interesting. You seem to have to contact customer support to get it enabled.

I'm personally going to hold off on giving them the greenlight here.
There is a difference between "Freedom of Speech" the principle, and "Freedom of Speech" as defined in the 1st Amendment.

Think of my question in a more generic terms. Here's another example in the context of software development. Do you have a place in your codebase for all of your controllers, another for all of the models etc? Or do you prefer to have users folder with controllers and models subfolders etc.?
Four Reasons Why We Won’t See Third-Party Apple Watch Faces
Ready Player One was competently directed by freaking Steven Spielberg with a "$155–175 million" budget and still sorta disappointed lots of us who had read the book.

Perhaps some awesome scifi books are just better left to the imagination?

Edit: I felt the same after watching "Ender's Game" (2013).

Edit 2: I felt that the TV adaptation of Neil Gaiman's "Good Omens" featuring David Tennant and Michael Sheen was absolutely brilliant. I hadn't gotten around to reading the book yet though...
I don’t see how increasing wages with productivity is the “right thing to do.” Workers have never been paid for the value of what they produced, they have always been paid for the value of their skills. Too far of a deviation from this basic model will likely have disastrous unintended effects.

If they are being paid enough to live I don’t see anything malicious. If people want a higher paying job, they should learn a more coveted skill.
You can also set reader mode automatically for just certain websites instead (i.e. whitelist vs blacklist); I do this for Bloomberg, Medium, WaPo, and others.
This list seems to be a biased list. I thought the list was first in descending order (funding), but it's not. Some super early stage startups were picked for some reason in the bottom section?

To clarify: by numbers, the vast majority of startups fail, and that's part of trying new things until one of them works great. I know multiple founder friends that had 1-3 *big failures before they built a great company after that.
This is only half of it. Everyone is copying what the unique people are doing because they think this is the way to be unique.

It's better. Already serialized. Can be kept under version control. Can be shared between people without needing to signup for anything. And as already stated, code is automatically extractable.

Even if I’m both intrigued by the product advertised and really want to support the site/app I’m on, I’d rather go google the product in an incognito window than give any money or information to adtech with that click.

Don’t show ad-network ads.
Now, overlay that with a graph of productivity over time. Observe that productivity growth has greatly exceeded wage growth. Speculate on where the gains due to productivity have gone, if they’re not being shared with workers.

There’s a story to tell here, but you’re not showing it.
What are "normal people" are addicted to on Instagram, likes? I only follow people I consider actual friends and I can't think of any people I follow that would be like that, but maybe that just has to do with who I hang out with?
Okay. Let me tie it together.

Early Google: Phenomenal ability to build effective, high-quality products. Everyone wants to work there. Stainless reputation with the public.

Current Google: Limited ability to build effective high-quality products (but retty good at sustaining the successful products they have). Mixed reputation as an employer. Mixed reputation with the public.

You can extrapolate from there. I'm concerned about the second derivative.

I think the second piece there is employee growth. In 2001, Google had 300. In 2004, it has 3,000. By 2011, it had 32,000. today, it's over 100,000. You can't quite fit an exponent to it, but it's pretty close. If revenues don't keep growing exponentially....

I'm not implying it's failing, by any means, but it's gone to the same place as any other large corporation, and not a strong position to maintain pole position from.
But each one of these dependencies is pretty consciously and manually added, most of the time. In new code, to introduce a new one usually requires thought, and that creates a culture of caution.

Also if you are dynamic linking, ldd(1) can give you a pretty good picture.
Ah yes The Melt Index. You can track silicon valley startup activity by how many tech workers are grabbing a quick grilled cheese sandwich while their code compiles.
And who decides what “reasonable censorship” is?

No, it raises rents. California rents can be traced back to prop 13, for instance.

Prop 13 wasn't run on a platform of raising rents, was it?
To be fair, Covid is a nuclear bomb dropped on the entire restaurant sector.

However:

1) Putting a grilled cheese sandwich restaurant in ferociously expensive real estate known for upscale, health-conscious consumers can't be smart (Irvine Spectrum Center?--LOL)

2) The food just wasn't that good. Sorry. They deserve to go out of business.
It is real median income being shown, but that doesn’t show the full picture. For one thing, we need the definition of "disposable income" that's being used here.
You aggregate Apple the platform creating hardware and OS company with Apple App Store which extorts rents due to dominant market position on the Apple hardware far disproportionate to the value that it adds. (If it added that much value that 30% of revenues for every app that can be downloaded from there was fair, then they would have to prohibit other app stores.)

The App Store is not necessarily linked to the hardware (just as IE isn’t linked to Windows, to show a similar antitrust issue), so Apple forcing the exclusive App Store platform contracts on users and value creating content companies looks a hell of a lot like a racket.
> Ban user tracking and targeting. It's a red queen's race and no one benefits. Everyone is better off once it's illegal.

the media ignores them does it? https://www.cnbc.com/video/2020/05/26/capitalism-coronavirus...

i would be mildly surprised if "liberal" CNBC had even one person from common dreams on.

i'm not gonna dig through the new york times for examples where they cited somebody from AEI coz it's paywalled but it wouldn't surprise me if they, like CNBC do, routinely.
I misremembered the actual value, but that doesn't change the overall point that the whole process from power generation to the wheel (in the case of vehicles) have a very poor efficiency, not significantly better than traditional diesel cars and much worse than battery powered vehicles. Plus my opinion appears unpopular in marketing and financial circles, but relatively popular among engineers. Conclude whatever you want.

I sincerely believe we'll reach 0% carbon by civilisational collapse, so that's not exactly that I'm against green power, either.
Being merely flawed is not the concern. If mistakes were made with roughly equal frequency in both directions on the political axis, that is an example of being flawed but is not a serious concern. It's potential political bias that favours a specific party or election outcome which is the concern. The power to swing elections being bestowed on a small group of unelected, unaccountable people is the concern.

It's not valid to compare vetting by the social media oligopoly with legacy media curation. Social media companies are like the new public commons through which the plurality of conversation and debate flows through nowadays. It's not practically possible to opt-out unless you want to exclude yourself from public discourse. There's also a distinct difference between legacy media bias, which is worn on the sleeve, and the shadowy undocumented impact of vettors whose bias can't be scrutinized by the public.
Well by clicking on the ads it's pretty likely the site gets more money.
>Someone stocking shelves in 2020 is about productive as someone stocking shelves in 1968.

This is not completely fair. There are countless innovations that have allowed these low skill jobs to have an increase in efficiency and productivity.

One example, when I was a teen and worked retail I remember we would all have to spend hours going around the store counting every product on the shelves in order to do our routine inventory checks because there was no other reasonable way to track that information. Now many stores have intelligent inventory tracking that requires little to no work from employees. The end result is that these employees are more efficient, stores need less workers, and stores can carry less inventory. Why isn't the benefit of that efficiency passed on to those employees who are now more efficient? How is that any different than a software developer receiving a higher salary because they are more efficient due to computers being more powerful?
Since when is clicking on something but not looking at it fraud?
They don't have to distinguish since all 3 are true.

Regarding #3, all Chinese companies over 50 employees have a CCP cell, and recently the CCP has started to target all companies.

You can watch the Youtube NTD/Epoch Times channel for proof.
The degree of bias differs, and we’ll be foolish not to punish the more biased outlets.
I actually suggested to GitHub back when the topics feature first came out that I thought the ability to submit topic recommendations to repos would be beneficial, since maybe some repo owners don't know about topics, or don't know which ones would help their discovery, or maybe (like a lot of PRs) would accept the suggestion but can't be bothered to do the legwork

Now that ".github" is a thing, putting the topics in there would allow a real PR workflow for suggestions

It does work for Windows, but the expectations are different there. I think being able to buy a completely open device and also buy a completely closed device is a good thing. I don't want every device to be locked down, but I'm okay with my iPhone being a console-like "it just works" device. The difficulty of screwing up an iOS device is a feature, in my opinion.

It's the same thing with my Switch, Xbox, 3DS, whatever. They all keep working well over time because apps are limited in what they can do, and they are curated.

Meanwhile, because on Windows and macOS you aren't limited to their respective app stores, the app stores don't have as complete a selection as their locked-down counterparts, meaning you have to go outside the store to get everything you need. Consequently, a Windows computer gets slower over time, and you're never sure if you've completely uninstalled something, unless you use one of the now numerous 500MB+ launchers/updaters. MacOS is marginally better, but I still have to go and clean out LaunchAgents and LaunchDaemons, and wonder if it's the Razer kext causing kernel panics because it was cheaper for them to make one than build everything necessary into the mouse. On both OSs, it's extremely nontrivial to figure out if some software is causing the device to wake from sleep and drain the battery. The consequence of allowing application developers to do anything is that they will do everything, and it's very hard as an OS developer to keep all the user software well-behaved.

A lot of the alternatives aren't much better. Fidelity for example would allow you to input your password as the numerical equivalent (think phone keypad - A, B or C map to "1" and so on). Which basically requires modifying your password before hashing it (and dramatically reducing entropy in the process).

I'm not sure if they still do this.
