> Microsoft has plenty of paying customers to continue supporting Windows as-is, some for decades

I have to respond to this thought because -- I don't think its true.

Aside from government and military, which of those paying customers truly have revenue streams so guaranteed that those entities cannot be replaced or outcompeted over the course of decades by somebody approaching the problem with fresh eyes -- or even just some internal division at the same company approaching the problem with fresh eyes and building something _better_ because it was allowed to change as opposed to something very stable because it is _not_ allowed to change?

For government -- do we really want/need our government throwing money away because they are more or less not allowed to development new solutions to old problems?

For military -- ... yeah well ... I don't know what to think about military ... Military is not a sector that has any measurable goals aside from self-perpetuating its budget so its hard to argue against boondoggle maintenance projects as having some capacity for objective success with regard to that goal ... But -- perhaps there is a future where the system could reasonably decide that the wisest course is to _not_ spend billions of dollars keeping 1980s era visicalc programs running unmodified so that they can properly manage the floppy disk supply chain for nuclear missile silos ...
My thinking: The actual timestamp should be in a tooltip/hover if you are going to default to relative dates like this.
Since you don't check for the image format you can get served a SVG image with embedded JavaScript and CSS that could potentially run in your website context.
It's not that straightforward as just an image tag won't let attackers run any js by default, but inlining the image would.

>everything got thrown into IPv6 without solving the two problems that actually matters

That would arguably be much better suited to a layer 4 solution. SCTP has solved both of those problems and is now 2 decades old. I have in the past harped on what a shame it is that QUIC was built, basically reinventing features of SCTP poorly. SCTP could still be viable over the open internet on IPv6 if it's done before the inevitable protocol ossification happens on IPv6 just like IPv4 when middlebox vendors can't be bothered to support passing traffic other than TCP, UDP, and ICMP.
Apple has been gradually declining in open source stuff.

They have opened swift, but that's sort of a funnel anyway.

The real problem is folks who work there say it's really hard to open source stuff as an employee.
The "car seat" is a child safety seat, or booster seat. They were strapping an extra apparatus in on existing hard points, nothing that would bother the airbags at all. It was probably some sort of anti-theft mode.
Much of the population who invests in index funds. Look at this article from 2013, look at AAPL and XOM performance then, https://www.forbes.com/sites/dividendchannel/2013/01/25/exxo...

Index funds have allowed me to not have to save for retirement anymore (have enough based on FV calc), and yes buying the FAANG stocks 6 years ago would have yielded much larger returns, but could also have yielded losses if they went the way of Exxon.

I mean, I'm kind of surprised after this back-and-forth that it isn't as clear cut as you seem to think it is. I mean, I've seen both of you make pretty reasoned arguments, and the fact that you still disagree I would at least think proves the point that people who disagree with your definition of free speech (or, rather, your definition of "cancel culture" and your definition of "harassment and threats") are not crazy lunatics.

I mean, let's be honest: getting someone blackballed from gainful employment sure seems like harassment for any reasonable definition of the term. You just seem to believe that there are sometimes good reasons for that to occur.

> pedestrian

You could argue that someone like John would invent a system in a few months that simply took a very low level engineering mind to run that would cover all those needs. You pay him for one year and get ten years of business out of his system.

There are 10x programmers, even 1000x programmers. They invent protocols, programming languages, databases, IDEs, tools, operating systems, cryptology, algorithms, frameworks and libraries that are used at all your 100,0000+ companies doing pedestrian stuff to do the pedestrian stuff. Try to imagine a completely closed source world where everything had to be made from scratch. What percentage of those pedestrian companies would succeed?

These people are and were giants that have provided billions in revenue to the world economy. That's indisputable. We stand on their shoulders, and because they are broad enough to look like an endless plain to us in the multitude, we claim that there are no giants.

The Bill of Rights and the Civil Rights Act - must be respected by corporate interests and their employees.
In the USA the powerful wishes to dictate how much advertisement I have access to and from whom. The freedom of speech and freedom of association are not for compromise from anyone. when left on their own FACEBOOK discriminates (title two) and seeks to influence elections (by unchecked data collection) to that end, it now seeks to control your programming for their foreign interests, and in the process remove your bill of rights and access to the Civil Rights Act (under the cover of their absolute truth ) any American who is loyal to the Bill of Rights should end the Tierney of unknown elites and their attempt to deny your constitutional rights once and for all.
> If petitioning your employer to fire you for something you said works, maybe you said something that your employer would fire you over?

Possibly, but there is another possibility which also occurs with alarming frequency:

The employer, feeling bullied and afraid of bad press, demonstrations, etc, makes a calculated risk vs reward decision: Is keeping this employee worth the (possibly existential) risk to my business?

That is, the employer may personally have zero problem with what you said, but fire you anyway because "it's just not worth it." The decision to fire is the result of both cowardice by the employer and coercion by the petitioners, even if that coercion is not an explicit threat.
I upvoted you, thank you for your thoughts! I use and develop on both windows and linux a lot, have positive and negative thought and feelings about both. I'm not a systems programmer, but I'm very interested in kernels and OS dev. I'm decently waves hands vaguely familiar with NT and the linux kernel at a high level. Could you please speak a bit more on NT>linux kernel? I'm very interested.
They have done so, and it has been argued by people worried about Social Media that the introduction of the printing press directly led to the Protestant-Catholic schism and all the associated bloodshed.
So you don’t have health insurance?
The big question this doesn't get into is: what do you want to have available instantly, with no acquisition cost beyond "remembering where you keep it"? What do you want to be able to customize perfectly to your needs?

As an example of the latter: I've tried bikeshares but they just made me long for my own bike: they're all too low for me, they usually have three gears at best, they have hard-to-move solid tires, the cargo area is usually in the front instead of my preference of the back. The cheap, beat-up seven-speed I own is a lot more fun to ride on.
No city in the USA looks like a war zone, but they can encounter situations that are dangerous. Things like gang shootouts or riots. I don't understand why APCs are a reason to be outraged. They are armored personnel carriers. Is it bad to want to keep our limited, trained, experienced police staff safe? I feel like APCs and MRAPs have been picked as a target of manufactured outrage without any concrete reason to actually be outraged.
Thanks :)

I'm not in agreement that they must show a healthy level of intolerence towards groups [...]

Where they've gone wrong is that they haven't segmeneted and created a concept of different groups. They've managed to make a platform for where they want to put every group up front. (Unlike reddit, where it's specialized into individual sections)

The more extreme groups now seek to get public acknowledgement and their platform is putting it in front. (It's a winner take all scenario). Reddit isn't perfect, but at least there is dedicated groups and there is some interference detection that is being fought against.(To prevent the extreme groups from trying to take over other groups)
Different media. Phones are a direct-messaging platform; Facebook is a highway full of roadside billboards.
Maybe 3rd printing can allow some sort of Renaissance.
I don't think this is true at all. Most of the world population lives in third world conditions. They may not have a car, because they can't afford it, but that doesn't mean their neighborhoods are "walkable".

Visit the slums of Mumbai, or the shanty towns of Lagos, or the favelas of Lima. These may be high density, but they're certainly not "walkable". Either in the sense of being pedestrian friendly or having many services easily accessible by walking/public transport.

There's a reason that the motorbike is one of the most popular consumer products for middle income countries. In the vast majority of the third world, the populace is desperate for any sort of personal motor transportation.
> Internet speech is not the same as freedom of speech. Facebook is a private platform and when you sign-up and use them you abide by their rules.

Some people are better at compartmentalizing than others. They can hold freedom of speech as it applies to the government in one thought-bucket, while holding corporate-enforced limits on their ability to say whatever they want in another.

But others can't (or won't) compartmentalize. To them, the whole freedom from the government versus freedom from private corporations distinction seems arbitrary and distracting, especially in the US, where many government roles have been subsumed by private corporations.

I'm not saying your point is invalid, just trying to gain some perspective on the issue. Personally, I'm a compartmentalizer so I see your point.

It’s unlikely but possible for an over the airway connection to actually be inherently secure. One example is an isolated system that could monitor say engine temperatures and oil pressure and nothing else.
Or the market is captured by customer hostile brand focused lifestyle companies that make money on after market spares.
This is exactly the reason non governmental entities should be allowed to do as they please within the confines of Constitutionality. If they aren't allowed that freedom, then they aren't free, and you have a bigger problem. In this sense, censorship is free speech, as you point out. But it's still a form of censorship. It's just censorship that should be allowed and encouraged like any other form of speech or expression by non governmental entities.

EDIT: (At least, that's how it works in the US. Other nations, other laws.)
Possible Application of this ? Can't satellite just be dummy sensor and all computing works happen on the ground ?
Unless I'm mistaken, Facebook is not a government and ignorant, uncivilized people getting whats coming to them features heavily in his works. While he certainly frowns on censorship, people intolerant and incapable of behaving themselves are usually thrown out an airlock or otherwise completely ejected from society to roam the surface Mars alone. If you're going to argue the Heinlein route, perhaps Holocaust Deniers need some frontier justice instead?
In terms of raw generation costs, maybe. Nuclear's price is historically a factor of 4 less when built at scale. Building nuclear plants one at time, like the US is doing currently, does not leverage economies of scale.

And when taking into account cost of storage, which is necessary when using intermittent sources, the actually cost increases drastically.

Apart from science experiments and taking pictures, how can this platform be used to deliver business value?
It's an important conversation to have. Ironically, the problem is that the signal gets divided into shortened binary views which are easier to say "yes" or "no" to. The answer isn't no censorship ever or censorship is always okay. The real answer always depends on context.

The problem with platforms like FB and Twitter is that anyone can say anything, and that can get amplified organically, or by state actors, or by trolls who are just saying offensive things to get attention. It's obvious that they need some form of moderation -- in most societies, you can't legally threaten to kill people for any reason, etc.

I think the main problem is trolling and foreign interference because it is basically free. Trying to establish a fringe idea required a lot of effort when making pamphlets or sending out biased newspapers were the main ways of doing it.

In the current digital age, people who are easily influenced are being blasted with controversial ideas by algorithms that are not trying to spread good information, but get more clicks. Foreign psyops efforts and the trolls who would not publicly support an idea, but will do so anonymously, falsely inflate its value. This is a new problem. It may need a twist on an old solution, like allowing people to choose between moderated or unmoderated news feeds, with the default being moderated.

Our democracy (and dozens of others) have survived for hundreds of years with limits to free speech. In my opinion, it's reasonable and rational to trust that the generations before us were at least partially right, and save ourselves the pain of reinventing that wheel.
Probably. However you could make the argument that many of today's players wouldn't have had access to the sports medicine that is available today. Slow-mo analysis of pitching motion plus modern advances in understanding of biology, plus the expertise of the former greats.

Also, it's not _all_ about the fast ball. There are a good amount of pitchers who throw high-eighties/low-nineties - the difference is the amount of deceptive movement they are able to put on the ball as well as being able to locate and change speeds - both things that Whitey Ford was good at. He was also notorious for spitballs at the end of his career, something you don't get away with nowadays.
When the US government considers banning Holocaust denial, I'll be concerned.
Gotos can be so useful in situations like this. I do not like the trend in new languages of not allowing goto and instead make the programmer do gymnastics to implement relatively straightforward logic.

I'm a free speech absolutist in that I think governments should not be able to punish speech outside of direct and imminent attempts to induce others to commit crimes, false reports of dangerous situations that imminently cause real dangerous situations, and the like.

I don't extend that to private platforms. Facebook should be free to host or not host whatever it likes, arbitrarily. What's becoming problematic is that the algorithms of tech giants now dominate content discovery. If Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, and Reddit decide something is bad, that something will probably have trouble gaining traction.

Most of us, me included probably think attempts to color the perception of historical events to serve racist ends are bad, and do not want them to gain traction. That does not, however mean that I want Facebook to have the power to decide what ideas get traction. I'd like to see online content discovery grow more decentralized again, and I think using algorithms optimized for something other than maximizing engagement will probably tend to reduce extremist content without much active intervention, but I don't know how to get there from here.
>Considering all the other rights in the bill of rights are individual, there does seem to be some consistency to that.

I WFH so I only use my car once per two weeks (to get groceries). My SO doesn't WFH, and hers is more comfortable so we use that when we go most places. My car is 17 years old, but only has 100K on it. Runs great. Low maintenance, so I keep it knowing that if I need it it is there. But, I can afford that luxury partly because there's no care payment and the insurance isn't tremendous.
You are mistaking the ability to say whatever you want with the ability to escape the social consequences of your expression. Both are fully compatible with any understanding of “free speech” constitutionally, politically and socially.

Would you kick nazis out of your dinner party? Yes or No?

That’s the fundamental question that is being asked.

If your answer is no, you would not kick nazis out of your dinner party, on account of “free speech”, well, that is your free speech. Mine is kicking the nazis out.

If you would not permit me to alter my behavior to stop my resources and forum to be utilized by nazis, meaning I must support and publish nazi material, your position is very extreme, severely limits my autonomy and in many ways forces me to “speak” on behalf of others.

“Free speech” that does not allow for others to express the consequences of that speech is not, in fact a support of free speech.

If you say “I hate nazis, but you must allow them to publish on your website” you are effectively prioritizing one type of speech over another. You are saying I must allow nazis at my dinner party. (Note: the government, with its force of law, is very, very different)

That anything in history is beyond doubt or beyond denial is anti-intellectual and should worry everyone. That's not history, that's religion. It is religion that demands absolute obedience and absolute acceptance.

Everything from George Washington to the dropping of nukes to even the native genocides are allowed to be debated and even questioned. Why is the holocaust the sole exception? Especially considering it isn't even part of american history and last I checked facebook is an american company.

If russia, china, north korea, saudi arabia, etc all said or forced their social media companies to remove content denying, criticizing or disputing X, we'd call that censorship. And yet, here we are, the top comment is praising this censorship.

Definitely. Not saying don't put money in ETFs but the returns aren't as fast and you have to earn a good salary to do so.

However adding some money into the market leaders would be a wise idea IMO. I.e. TSLA and AAPL. Since you are in the ETF ($SPY) for now then you are already invested in AAPL as it's the largest portion of it so adding TSLA which is going to be $5,000 in a decade would be wise.

Not merely shared properties, lineage. I'm wondering this because I would find it surprising and fascinating.
