And yet even deleting these services or choosing not to use them yourself does not keep them from tracking you. We have long known about "shadow profiles" that for example Facebook uses to collect data on individuals that don't (yet, they hope) have Facebook accounts.

As far as governments go, we could all become anarchists be done with them, but if you think for even a few seconds about it you would realize that this enormous vacuum of power would be filled by something. Corporations, rival nations with their government still intact, military warlords, or new political factions seeking to establish new governments. We have thousands of years of history that shows this pattern emerging again and again to the point that it is practically a natural law of power. The only check on power is greater or equal power. Ideally, you want this power to be answerable to the greatest number of people that this power is intended to serve. You may recall a lot of smart people during something called the Enlightenment spending a lot of time and energy on experimenting with different forms of government that met these criteria and still managing to not quite get it right. Many people in the West live in societies multiple iterations down the line from those established in the 18th and 19th century revolutions and there are still glaring issues. What do you suggest instead?
Extensibility is a good way to sum it up, but there's many specific issues with each. The biggest problems we hear about with Squarespace are responsive layout overrides. The templates are also generally pretty rigid.

Wix's current editor is based on fixed position (think photoshop / illustrator). This approach works great for banners, graphics, icons etc, but is inherently at odds with web design. The solution for fixed position builders is to hardcode breakpoints, but there are too many devices. It's better to just design a UX around the box model, as that's how we code for the web anyways.

Editor X has potential but there's a little too much magic happening in the layout for my taste.

These are just a few of the many pain points. From our research, companies rarely keep using Wix / Squarespace after a certain stage. I personally haven't tried scaling a Squarespace or Wix site, but I also have never gotten them to a point where I was happy with all of the details before deciding to just code it myself.
> Apple has a monopoly on iPhone software

Monopoly's are whether or not a product or service dominates a specific sector, industry or market. A company can't have a monopoly over its own products which by definition would cover most product/service companies.

Given iOS market share is about ~25% of the Mobile OS Market, it currently doesn't qualify as a Monopoly although it's currently under EU investigation & Epic lawsuit which may rule differently.
In live in San Antonio and while you can get gigabit AT&T even Google Fiber (I can get either) many neighborhoods have 25-50 mbit max from AT&T so you get whatever your cable provider (Spectrum offers).
Your logic makes absolutely 0 sense, the success of current browsers is not exogenous to the lawsuit.

Current browser/s were able to adapt and evolve in the context of an anti-trust lawsuit against Microsoft.

It's like saying "what was the reason for the Fed taking an expansionary stance in March if the stock market clearly has been doing fine since then?"
> Would you pay a small fee, say 20 Euro, a year for a Firefox version which guarantees no-ads or pocket?

i would have, even $50. but not after they've laid off most of their servo engineers to focus the company on more idiotic moneygrabs.

there was never a way to pay for firefox. only some black hole foundation contrib that probably went to their many failed, poorly-conceived initiatives.
I completely agree, and reports on unemployment rates are one of my biggest Internet peeves:

"The official unemployment rate is artificially depressed by excluding people who might be earning only a few dollars a week."

This reads like paranoia. Regardless of how U-3 originated, U-3 reflects an international standard of defining "unemployment". If different countries use different definitions of unemployment in their studies, then meaningfully comparing unemployment statistics among countries is futile (or just really really difficult).

I guess one could argue that, say, U-6 should be the international standard. But whatever definition one uses doesn't actually change anything in the real world. The different measures are trying to describe reality, not define the magical all-true unemployment rate. The point is to look at many different definitions to identify trends. Attempts to blindly point at U-6 and say that this is more "real" than U-3 is just as deceptive as claiming success over lowering the U-3 rate (even if it's because people are leaving the labor force).

It should be up to outlets like Axios to explain these nuances rather than argue that one measure is more "true" than another.
Why should we trust your single point of view above tens of thousands reviews for those companies?
99% of people don't, and even you have to use the store that corresponds to the device you want to use the app with.

If one company actually had a monopoly on windshield wipers for cars and another had a monopoly on windshield wipers for trucks, that doesn't change just because there is somebody who has both a car and a truck. When you need windshield wipers for your car, there is still only one place you could get them.

Playing the devil's advocate here, Amazon is definitely not the only retailer that can use data.

All the retailers have data on what sells in their store, they also have the data on how sales are influenced by shelf placement.

Amazon to me is a logistics company, along with their storefront and AWS. Their focus on margins and their competence to use data to drive their logistics chains is what's truly scary. They can optimize a lot of inefficiencies that exist in logistics right now just because of the involvement of different disjoint players.
Radiation environment on the moon is worse than in the LEO. Earth's magnetic field is not protecting in the Moon. It's unclear how much rad-hard they need if they don't use it for anything safety critical. Rad-hard 90nm SoC for 4G/LTE should be relatively straightforward. Or maybe they use redundancy and use already available few generation old chipsets.

Changes for thermal management and testing eats most of the budget.

You're confusing respect with worship. And he was clearly joking.
They each have their ups and downs, I've uses both on many platforms for many years for now. Generally what's an up and down depends on the person as well e.g. some consider being on the browser with the tiny usage share and hitting compatibility issues a good thing ("it helps the web") and others consider it bad ("I just want it to work"). Same thing with performance, performs how well for which sites in which use case on which system. In general, with the exception of "the browser doesn't have hardware acceleration for the platform I use", performance is probably imperceptibly different for >95% of users but each tail will be very adamant that their tail is the better performing one (and it may be for their use case).

For me personally the biggest current difference remains HDR support, which FF lacks and Safari/Chrome are continuing to grow. FF still has a big ways to go to achieve HDR so I think this one will be around for a while unfortunately. Now of course many are going to think "I don't give a shit about HDR" in which case refer to the first paragraph.

The biggest difference that finally got fixed was for the longest time Chrome had much higher quality pitch correction on sped up content e.g. YouTube 2x. It was noticeably worse at 2x and I couldn't even understand the content at 3x on Firefox but it sounded great in Chrome. This forced a lot of my usage over to Chrome until it was fixed.

On the Chrome side the biggest drawbacks are lack of extensions on mobile and lack of containers. I don't use containers as a privacy tool but more as a multiple profile tool without having to worry about which profile a window was launched in but I don't think that's the main real world use case happening. Lack of extensions on mobile is obvious.
I don't see how those two things coincide at all. Further, your second statement is a strawman - for a project and community that touts being a serious replacement for C, there are indeed expectations about the security mindset of the individual providing the code. When the project has 7k+ stars on Github, clearly people are looking at it and using it. If the maintainer is being unsafe, it's ridiculous to imply nobody is allowed to be critical of that.
I really connected with how you said you are feeling because it is how I have been feeling. I work for a small innovation group (not a startup), so my work environment is flexible. I am also trying to bootstrap a startup project in my free time.
I will have days that I am super productive and can get through a ton of work, but then I have other days that I just can't bring myself to work. It feels weird cause when I force myself to work I get way less done, so I then feel like it is pointless cause I get such little done compared to when I am in the mood for the work. I don't really know how I should feel about it cause I feel guilty on the days that I don't get as much done, but it feels like a waste of time and is draining to just sit there and force out a small amount of work.
A lot of companies seem to have a poor understanding of what AI is. Lots treat it like an ancient soothsayer.

Heard too many stories of companies trying to use it to predict equipment failures or something along those lines. Did they have failures in their datasets? No. Obviously they did not succeed.

They then declared AI/ML a failure.
Whose definition are you referring to? The official BLS unemployment statistics only include people who are actively looking for work, so they wouldn't count your wife as unemployed.
I am a biologist/ecologist by training and there exists a biomimicry technique that can regenerate the most damaged, capped soils and produce up to an inch of soil per year. It mimics the behavior of the great herds and incorporates overlooked factors that contribute to the biological soil cycle including plant succession, coverage, small and large animal impact. It also incorporates permaculture. It arrests the desertification process, doubles the effectiveness of rainfall, promotes deep penetration of water to restore aquifers, brings back the native plants, insects, birds etc. It can be used purely to restore biodiversity on damaged land. And it’s carbon negative. It can be used for agriculture or ranching (or forest fire management). It eliminates the need for fertilizer and tilling. It eliminates runoff. Ranchers who are using it here in Colorado are seeing a 300% increase in hay production and thus the same for number of cattle or bison the land can sustain. It’s become known as concentrated, rotational grazing but there’s a little more to it. Alan Savory developed the technique while studying land degeneration on game preserves in Africa. His book and course explain SO many previously-invisible processes that contribute to soil health. Even without using animals, there is SO much we can do to restore healthy soil cycles, increase the effectiveness of rainfall and stop erosion desertification.

I like it, but +66 is Thailand already.

Maybe Thailand could be reassigned. Like when Mexico dropped out of +1 to become +52.

yeah, as long are containers aren't synced and available on android it's not really an option for me, it's nice I can isolate certain sites, but if it doesn't work everywhere it's a bit pointless for me.
How does this have an impact on privacy ? It only allows a website to send you additional information about some media, which you can display or not.

It's not sending anything back to the server.

They don't "destroy" the company. They hollow it out and walk away before it collapses into itself.
Why? Seriously, I pointed out the major flaw in your argument and you just ignore it?

"Real" free markets don't exists and they need to be regulated. It's a very basic tenet of socialism (the major political ideology on Earth). Like you must be trolling.
It'd be cool if people spent more time reading basic political philosophy, rather than reading one book on libertarianism and deciding that that is now their philosophy.

Philip Pettit has spent extensive time addressing really interesting questions like these, like what might distinguish "public" domination from "private."

I think your memories may be merging over time. Win XP didn't come out till 2001, so it was probably win 98/98 SE running in your classroom.

One of the things I remember about school computing in the 90s was how varied the equipment could be. My school had 2-3 computers per classroom, but 2nd grade had Apple IIs, 3rd grade had... possibly an Amiga?, and 4,5,6 grade had a mix of IBM PCs and one Mac, but with what ever OS originally shipped on them, ranging from straight DOS + Windows <3, win 3.1, and Win 95. It was wacky.

Also Wix, Squarespace, and Weebly.

I didn't realize that all these services are actually presentations and not websites. Whatever that means.

The value of a tool like this without the backend and infrastructure is minimal. If you need to setup your own host and generate new HTML/CSS every time you'd like to update the site, the market for this product drops close to zero.

You don't want to conquer fear entirely. Fear is an important signal. Physical fear keeps you out of danger; ego fear keeps you from wasting lots of time on fruitless things or doing things not in accord with your values.

You want to control fear. Put it in a little box so that it's a signal and not a dictator. Process it so that you're aware of what precisely is making you afraid and can rationally think of ways to mitigate that concern. Fear is a reason to be vigilant and aware, not a reason to freeze up and stop doing what you're doing.
It is indeed true. I suppose it's more the juxtaposition of Twitter, which many people (including myself) have come to despise, with the government, which should be impartial about private endeavors (arguably), in the same report about Twitter's security deficiencies related to the election.

It's just a strange pairing, and to me a bit sad that Twitter of all things has become America's backbone of formal communication.

It feels like it could be in Idiocracy. That's all.
I am about as young as a full time enterprise employee can be, and I find this thread fascinating.

Because while I totally agree with the individual that you are replying too, I TOTALLY see how it could seem ridiculous to someone with the periods-end-sentences perspective.

Let me try and come up with an ideal example. Consider this IM to a friendly teammate concerning an important (but not critical) meeting:

> did we get everything sorted out for the meeting this afternoon? we cant screw it up again

> Did we get everything sorted out for the meeting this afternoon? We can't screw it up again

> Did we get everything sorted out for the meeting this afternoon? We can't screw it up again.

In my world, the first two communicate pretty much the same thing. In the first example, you could probably even replace the question mark with a comma. I would likely send the second message, as I prefer descriptive, detail-adding punctuation. I would be less likely to send the third message to a young coworker because it seems standoffish.

Having said all that, any of the three messages would suffice. Someone mentioned elsewhere in this thread, but we - or at least the younger generation - have all become quite good at code switching. Crazy times

In addition to the recommendations for Powered by the Apocalypse games (specifically Monster of the Week) I'd also encourage you to look into the FATE system, especially FATE: Accelerated Edition[0] and its SRD [1]. It's designed to be fairly light on the mechanics, and to help the GM and the players focus on the development of a story within those mechanics. I've been running a homebrew-story FAE game with a group of 4 friends and I really like the flexibility it gives us to focus on the narrative and character development. Also it's designed to be a pretty minimal time commitment to learn the rules well enough to give it a try.

It would be way, way easier on the Moon because there's no atmosphere to attenuate signal. You would need fewer satellites and lower power. Since you could build enormously tall towers in 1/6 gravity satellites might not even be economical compared with a few big towers.

If I were ever to return to being a news junky, axios.com would be at the top of my source list.

Notice the objective to the point layout, and link to the data source. My only quibble is axios did not link directly to the white paper explaining the methodology, but that link is prominent on the linked page. So, 2 clicks away from the explanation of the numbers. Much better than the vast majority of articles, whether MSM or blogger, that get thrown around as evidence for this or that.

As has been pointed out, the article title is rather click-baity. No information source is perfect...and it is all narrative.
