Says a lot that this comment got downvoted...

If the Armenian genocide would have the same amount of "advertising" as holocaust does it would be on the same level of "notoriety".

The media complex creates a very disproportionate cult around certain events: the holomodor claimed 2x lives as the holocaust and yet it's hardly ever mentioned.

Everyone knows of holocaust but most will go "huh?" when you ask them about holomodor.

Funny how history can spinned to make certain events world famous and others to dissapear.
> It's about whether someone can read your program and completely understand it in one pass

That's not the only thing. It's also how fast they can read/understand the program code.

> All mathematicians are expected to write paragraphs in "English" or some other relevant language outside of equations.

Sure, we do that for software also - we document things outside of the code. For example in a wiki, a README.md or sometimes even just above the code as comment/docs. But that's not what I was talking about, right?

> Whenever a mathematician uses the letter "x" or "f" they define the meaning with an english phrase or paragraph.

So you are fine if a developer does e.g. `c := (some super complex expression) // find relevant customer` and then goes on to use just `c` everywhere in their code instead of `relevantCustomerBlaBlaBla`?

Also, mathematicians don't always do that. Sometimes they just say "let x be [insert complex equation]". See for yourself in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conformal_geometry or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann_surface

I'm sure your will find a lot of papers, books and articles where they do this.
Creating synthetic data in your cloud, or on-premises
Why does it have to be more than “police that get military gear kill more people?

Rhetorical question, it doesn’t. It’s human biology. Ask a neuroscientist or biologist. Concretizing some probability model from your couch is asinine, as the probability of certain outcomes is proven.

Simple-cause effect is all that’s needed and is highlighted.

Stop gifting our neighbors (which is what police really are, fellow local tax paying halfwits pretending they’re an adults because their voice got deeper) dystopian dragnet gear.
It's how it starts though, with an easy target...

when say 3 years from now, you can't criticize FB for their known co-operation with the surveillance programs of the government without having your content automatically detected and removed, you might have a different view.

This is only because of FB's refusal to let you more easily control what is seen on your feed. You controlling the feed settings would remove FBs power over eyeballs.

We should be careful to draw a causal relationship here. It might not be that getting the military equipment causes police to be more aggressive and therefore have more killings.

It might instead be that the more aggressive police departments are the ones that more seek to purchase military equipment, and the more aggressive police are the ones with more killings. I tend to think that's the case.

Regardless, there is no need, ever, for police to have the automatic weapons, APCs, and "non-lethal" weapons they are buying from the military. If they are facing an opponent like that then call in the FBI, who generally have much better training, or ATF (no idea about their training).
I am the evidence, the more mass media and social networks are censoring Holocaust denier. The more im curious about it.

I mean, yes it's been a real scientifical topic since 1950 with a lot of heavy study from very rigorous and scientific process to really understand what happened, and somehow demonstrate that some advertised numbers in this case are quite a little bit over any physical reality.

So yes you can start to read papers from deceased Faurisson who might be the most honnest guy on earth with a real Sherlock Holmes mindset on the topic and start to question a little what you have been taught mostly by hollywood movies...( the main fabric of consentment).

See im the living exemple of what is claimed here. The more there is cencorship, the more it backslashes and it is counterproductive.

Of course most peoples dont care at all cause they totally adhere to official story telling. But there still part of peoples who are curious enough and are appeled by truth instead of dogma.

You ask for proof of the previous poster, but you never asked for a proof of 6millions jews being killed during wwII funny isn'tit.
Is this an international policy change? In Germany holocaust denial is straight up illegal, so I imagine posts are have been required to be removed since the inception of Facebook. It's kinda weird to see that this is only now a thing.

If you take the Snowden revelations seriously enough to worry about snooping on your board meetings, you should take them seriously enough to drastically reduce online communication and record keeping - as I'm sure stae-level institutions do.

If you're a company whose financial reports, email and documents all reside in the cloud, having your boardroom meetings snooped on through your phone is the last of your worries.
I downvoted you not because of the linked image, which I agree with, but with your generalization that "everybody on HN is a temporarily embarrased billionaire." I can tell you I'm certainly not; I'm just a guy earning a salary like many people here, trying to figure out how to make my life more peaceful and meaningful.

Don't sink too far into those depths.
This is an admirable move.

I sure hope that it means its going to be harder for people to deny current era war crimes and crimes against humanity, too. That is way, way overdue.

About time fb started taking this kind of misinformation serious. From the article I am still having a hard time wrapping my head around the fact

>>According to a recent survey of adults in the US aged 18-39, almost a quarter said they believed the Holocaust was a myth, that it had been exaggerated or they weren’t sure.

Like how does something like this even happen in a first world country, as someone from outside the US someone who grew up thinking the US had an excellent education system and kids there had more access to data the world and almost everything, I honestly am having a very hard time processing the fact that this many people believe the holocaust didn't happen or was exaggerated. Is this a failure in the education system? Like, what the hell is this?
Can you explain how that is a slippery slope?
I'd suggest approaching this from the other direction: providing even one counterexample would refute GP's assertion.

I'm not sure why this is downvoted. There are many people, particularly in Tukey, who deny the Armenian genocide (hell there's a even a podcast named after the people that did it). Tiananmen is also downplayed by CCP officials outside China and denied within China.

What bugs me with this is the resolution that is usually truncated.

"2 hours ago" might be fine enough. 2 days ago (instead of a longer "2 days 3 hours ago") maybe not, especially when I quickly want to see what's freshest or oldest and everything just says "2 days ago".
idk, maybe I am.

However anecdotally, I was a part of the occupy movement back in 2011. A large part of our spread was to stay on the street and deliver propaganda. After we were de-platformed by the police using various scare tactics (including arrest) our spread was heavily restricted and the movement quickly died. It seems to me that these tactics of stopping our spread by the police were pretty successful.
I recently went through a similar exercise using the same tools on a large open source Python codebase. The solution is the same as the author found: don't keep Exception objects around past the actual lifetime of the exception.

An Exception has the traceback, and the traceback has all the frames of the call stack, and each frame has a reference to the local variables in that frame.

Keeping an Exception around past its time can yield a huge tangle of circular references that puts a lot of pressure on the GC.

I reduced memory utilization dramatically by deleting 1 line of code.

Such content should not be removed/censored but officially annotated (a red text aside of the original content would be a generic disclaimer and link to a full dissertation on why such kind of content is both erroneous and harmful to humanity).

Because we accept working for less :).

Ultimately, if there are no other constraints interfering, the pay will gravitate towards being as low as workers are willing to accept (which ultimately is a function of costs of living).

In a way, every developer that feels "entitled to" high salary is contributing towards keeping the programmer salaries high, so it's in our all our interests to keep asking for more, not less :).
"especially when those said groups are overtly and unmistakably intolerant themselves"

To me that seems like a pretty clear line. Some groups will invariably try to straddle it, but plenty of groups on Facebook make it quite clear their level of hate for others.

Totally, not very helpful data. But it sounds dramatic.
I'd suspect reinforcing. They're quoting a ratio of fatal shootings of 4:1 between with:without military gear. I don't think police departments are insular enough to maintain that level of work culture disparity. There is certainly significant variance, though, and toxic culture is more impactful when it's empowered and visibly supported. It would also would be unsurprising if providing overkill response methods resulted in, well, overkill.
>> Their job is to protect citizens

An interesting turn of phrase, but not reality. Cops are there to enforce laws. Some of those laws are meant to protect citizens. Other laws are to protect property, protect government interests, and enforce codes of behavior. This is particularly true when dealing with mental health issues. Protection of anyone quickly becomes secondary to physically stopping the person who is acting strangely.

To quote Oscar Wilde: "Morality, like art, means drawing a line someplace."

I think that drawing a line between reason and unreasonableness is a reasonable place to draw the line.

If our understanding of Holocaust history is correct, which overwhelming evidence supports, it is reasonable to believe that the Holocaust both occured, and was absolutely awful. Given that, denial of those events is unreasonable, and damaging to society as a whole. Much like the slavery of African Americans, it needs to be acknowledged and accepted as fact, and those who try to hide or dispute these facts must be challenged.
Simply enabling TLS 1.2 is not a fix for problems in 1.1. You must also disable 1.1 in your server config. It's both actions that fix the insecurities: first enabling a secure method of communication; and then cutting off anyone trying to communicate insecurely. If you simply enable 1.2, but leave 1.1 working, then you haven't fixed the problem.

SRI is the equivalent of just enabling 1.2. You haven't disabled access to browsers that dont support SRI.

You 2nd sentence sounds remarkably similar to my first post that maple responded to: SRI can help mitigate the damage, but it cant fix it.

You seem confused about the difference between mitigation and fixing.

Mitigation: the action of reducing the severity, seriousness, or painfulness of something.

Key work there is reducing. A fix actually eliminates the issue.. like enabling 1.2 + disabling 1.1 eliminates the potential for communicating insecurely.

It's important to understand the difference because anything short of actually fixing the issue leaves some users exposed to the vulnerability.
Outside the western world it's common that people are unfamiliar with the holocaust, unsure of the details or believe it's a myth. Given that the US has a significant amount of immigration from non-western countries, I would take that into account when looking at those statistics. It might be premature to think it's solely due to a rise in antisemitism.

In order to carry the USB logo, chargers/cables/connectors/etc must pass a suite of compliance testing to get certification. Specifically for USB-C, you can find details of the USB Power Delivery 2.0/3.0 Compliance Plans at https://www.usb.org/usbc. This of course does not stop cheap knock-offs being made without proper compliance testing.

I think as long as these hacks stay in 'prototype' mode, and is clearly called out as such, then it is fine. Once it goes beyond that (ie for sale without proper testing, etc), then it gets worrisome.
I can see this working well for those working to expose the current Yemen genocide situation, too.

From Wikipedia:

“The killer whale or orca is a toothed whale belonging to the oceanic dolphin family, of which it is the largest member.

The toothed whales are a parvorder of cetaceans that includes dolphins, porpoises, and all other whales possessing teeth, such as the beaked whales and sperm whales.“

So, yes, in the sense that sperm whales and porpoises are also dolphins, it too is a dolphin. but that’s not typically how we use the word dolphin.

Long overdue.

It's worth going into why this is something that is worth doing and also why FB has historically not done it.

FB's position for a long time was that they would not remove material just because it was factually inaccurate, in other words they treated Holocaust denial as being essentially ignorance. There is a truly cringeworthy clip of Facebook spokesdrone and former UK deputy PM Nick Clegg in a documentary on Holocaust denial, unfortunately I cannot find it online, where he lays this out. The problem, as David Baddiel shows in that documentary is that this is not actually a disagreement on a matter of fact where one party is mistaken. There is no mistake and the people who push this stuff know it.

I've often noticed that the people who most vehemently believe that the Holocaust did not happen are the people who really want it to happen again. You're not going to find people who deny that it happened and are not also raging anti-Semites. Here's why: they know that it happened. They know that you know that it happened too. They enjoy the agitation and the pain they are inflicting. When they say that they are just "asking questions" and trying to "educate themselves" they are using the language of academic inquiry which they know we are culturally inclined to treasure and protect above almost all else as a sort of cloak.

The reason, for instance why Deborah Lipstadt, probably the world's foremost scholar on Holocaust denial has always refused to engage in any kind of debate is for precisely that reason. Now, at first, one might say: "aha, but surely we should never foreclose academic debate? What is she hiding that she won't even debate them?". However this is to mistake their games for genuine inquiry.

It should be noted that there actually are debates among historians about the Holocaust but these are not over whether it happened but over where it should be placed in terms of historical context - is part of genocide studies, a sui generis event, part of a long arc of European anti-Semitism? and over whether it was always part of a Nazi master plan or effectively emerged as a consequence of bureaucratic manoeuvring and favour-gaming by Nazi officials who wanted to rise through the party. These are often quite intense as well, with people having some very strong views. There is no such thing as a historical debate about whether the events themselves happened.

Sartre is still very relevant here: Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.
