I would've loved videos like this when I was studying Biology! This kind of explanation with the video is amazingly clear. It reminds me a lot of how the signal is generated in eyes through the build up of charge after light hits the retina.
You are not wrong, but the link I listed is relatively recent. Things like that rarely change that fast. Not to mention, both of your examples likely have working compliance units ( and FinCEN wants exchanges to be compliant ). The mixer FinCEN busted didn't and wasn't.

Also, again, I am not a lawyer. In other words, I fully accept the possibility that I am wrong.

However, I do know how conservative banks are.
I personally learned to read as early as I could recall (around four) but lacked much attention span to actually crack open a book then and found being read to more fun. Not as a matter of personal bragging but to point out that kids in absense of formal teaching methods may absorb many things.

Immersion learning is used and studied mostly for foreign languages but I wonder about how effective it proves in general for small children given vs trying to teach them actively and leaving them to observe it. It may be a fringe case technique when directly teaching them is ironically less effective or even more effective when it does work but unreliable.
I'm also not American and not old and I don't know if it sounded that way but I didn't come at this from a "hobos leeching money" standpoint. My point is that social safety doesn't just happen at the government level, and a plurality of entities, including private ones, can be responsible for it.

In my country employees at sizeable firms have guaranteed representation on the board of their firm. (30%). Stakeholdership can be enshrined in law. Small and middle-sized business doesn't just optimise for profit but employs people for life. (the unemployment during covid did not go past 6-7%).

Is that less 'efficient' in a direct sense? Yes, but it's also autonomous and decentralised and robust and gives people real stake in their workplace and control over their life. The perversity of gig work is how it alienates and atomises workers.

You're essentially building a super fragile system in which benevolent government taxes single minded competitive companies to send checks to fluid workers who get ordered around by an algorithm. That system has so many single points of failure it's not even funny. the US, ironically enough, already suffers from a version of this. What happens when the army of Uber drivers and table cleaners doesn't get their 2 trillion relief fund because one guy in charge of the entire thing throws a tantrum?
I have been using Mac for 14 years. There was exactly one HP printer that worked with Mac straight off the box. For every other printer, whether at office or home, I had to perform some additional manual steps to print using my Mac.

So, looking at the various comments, experiences do seem to vary widely.

Just to contrast, I never had a problem with WiFi on my Macs, while one of my colleagues had incessant problems with one of theirs!

Why is forcing people who don’t care about learning to do so any more moral than forcing nerds who don’t care about sports to do physical exercise? Most people have no intellectual interests, just as watching sports bores me. Exercise and learning both have pay offs in terms of physical and mental health and earning power respectively, for those who enjoy them and those who don’t.

Why is forcing people to read books they don’t care about good enough to warrant the intrusion on their autonomy necessary to get them to do so?
Challenging myself. Reading books that are hard and maybe not relevant to my current job but super interesting and provoke ideas. Most recent example is The Master and His Emissary: The Divided Brain and the Making of the Western World by Iain McGilchrist.
There is no question that tests are terrible, are gamed, and get in the way of actual learning. How to replace them with something better and still measure performance is an open question.

However I think the biggest benefits of homeschooling are being ale to get customized 1 on 1 attention, and learning how to learn. That is the meta skill of being self driven, self disciplined in acquiring new skills. A lot of people that go through the public school system seem afraid of that or unable to do that. They were the people most likely to wash out of college in the first year, because they couldn't deal with the relative lack of structure compared to high school.

I think " not wanting stable work" was a poor choice of words, and the previous commenter meant more along the line of "people want more flexible work". There is a great deal of people who are happy working jobs that allow them to pick their hours, days worked, or even just stop working for weeks at a time with no notice.

Having healthcare tied to full-time employment is almost entirely incompatible with this type of employment, as it is priced at half-time / full-time employment, not super flexible gig jobs.
All the ideology based practices in software engineering. TDD, xtreme programming, pair programming, BDD etc.

This comment is going to rile up many, but I haven't found anyone to show me even a half-ass scientific study to show that any of these things make anything better.
Instead of CA requiring private companies to cover health costs, they should step in to lower them and to provide coverage for the residents, it's as simple as that.
yes.

without any spoilers there are literally tens of books out there that explore this very same idea. (some of them hard scifi)
> With a federated network, however, I generally have to trust every single host that any of my contacts has decided to sign up with

I can see why, at first glance, this seems strictly worse because there are more entities to trust, but this is not a static system.

As an analogy, think about Facebook. Let's say that your friends all hate Facebook, but continue to use it, because for them the inconvenience and switching costs of moving to a different social network (perhaps one you are offering to host for them) is higher than the cost of continuing to use Facebook.

With a federated network, not only can you encourage (or demand) your friends to use a host that you approve of, but also, the very fact that people can move from one host to another (and there isn't a single basket containing all the eggs) means that these hosts are less likely to risk their reputation or be attacked in the first place.

> even in federated networks like email, some hosts will become bigger than others and will eventually take over most of the users and traffic

It seems you are arguing both that federated systems lead to there being too many nodes to trust, and also that in practice only a few big nodes will be trusted. I may be over-simplifying your points there, and I do think there are challenges with federated networks (particularly when federation is deliberately broken due to spamming/abuse/politics) but it's worth having a clear SWOT analysis here.

Anyway, my point, as before, is that a network coalescing around a few big nodes is not a problem as long as there is portability of accounts between them. I would rather trust 3 big providers who fear losing users to a more secure platform, than 1 monopolistic provider that's too big to fail.
The worst case for fixing someone's typo is when you know their first language isn't English and assume that's where the mistake comes from. 99% of the time I make mistakes due to swipe/predictive input changing something I don't notice. Yet it gets pointed out by someone repeatedly writing "should of" or asking for simple spelling advice.
TouchID has another interesting failure mode for me that's probably quite rare: after I go climbing, my skin is so worn that it doesn't recognize any of my fingerprints.
Potentially, yes. Authenticators can provide a public certificate, so servers can accept attestations created through whitelisted authenticators.

This would mean being forced to use proprietary hardware or closed-source authenticators, because that’s the only way to control authenticator certificates.
If the open source project is serious about building a compelling community that people would actually hang out at, they'd consider Discord/Slack.

Elm lang has an IRC channel. Like all IRC channels on Freenode, it's pretty much dead. One reason being that only a small fraction of people even are willing to use IRC, mostly because they're old enough to know wtf it is.

But then the Elm creator started a Slack server. ...And it's absolutely bustling. There's people getting help. There's people giving help. There's people golfing code or discussing design ideas. There's people sharing their projects and receiving feedback. There's different channels. There's people meeting people and making friends. There's people sending messages to offline users and offline users able to read them when they come back online. And there's even people posting multiline code snippets, something that tends to come in handy for a software project of all things.

There's people who want to grow an online community, they tend to discover Discord very quickly. No brainer. And then there's people who want to convince an increasingly empty room that the application layer protocol behind the community is what matters most.
Yeah, and it will be again in 10,000 years, but as per the wiki you site, this is due to Earth's orbital period [1], and it doesn't last very long. And during Green Sahara (if our species is still around to see it) we're likely to see deserts where we now have green.

Well he's not JK Rowling famous, but he has sold over a million books which puts him in a pretty elite club author wise. Especially in sci fi, that's a lot. I'm very proud of my brother, he started down a very difficult career path and became very successful. All self taught.
Bingo! The classic work on this is from Fader and Hardie:

A friend and I made an implementation in Python a while back:

I'll make these arguments:

1. I don't really think any of the tips and strategies in this article are helpful unless both (or all) parties go in to it with this same mindset. Which means that, for example, I believe it is simply impossible to have these kind of "constructive arguments" on, say, Twitter, for example. One of the things I like most about HN is the guidelines are clear about the goals of the forums, and while of course they are not always followed (I've certainly not always followed them), they are very helpful to help recenter debates, and I think there are a lot of helpful commenters that try to get things back on track if they go off the rails (thank you, dang).

2. > When people feel that something so close to them is in question, they often lose sight of reason and argue instead from an emotional perspective.

This may sound condescending, and it's really not meant to be as I also used to believe this, but I have come to the realization over the years that this mindset is woefully naive and immature. As someone who identifies as pretty "Spock-ian" in nature, it took me a long time (and years of therapy) to realize that everyone argues from an emotional perspective. It's what it means to be human. The entire purpose of emotions is that they are they only place where human motivation comes from. Trying to separate "logic" vs. "emotion" when dealing with humans is a fools' game in my opinion.
Looks like a great product for kids.

I like the idea of having the kids paint or decorate their robots.

Just a suggestion but it might be nice to have the inside of the shipping box printed with cutting patters for some or all of the pieces needed to build the projects.

Also I'm not sure if it is still available or not but I recall building a simple robot arm out if cardboard and nitinol (Muscle wire).

Good luck with your Kickstarter.
Free Software is amazing. I love emacs, Firefox, bash, zsh, nginx, postgres, llvm, linux, freebsd, and many other packages. But, I think that there are two points to be made with regard to commercial software.

1: Domain specific programs, and polish. Logic Pro X, Final Cut Pro X, Ableton, Cubase, Premier Pro, are are excellent pieces of software that people pay for and use every day. Where is the free software equivalent that isn't glitchy and has a usable, slick, ui? The more specific the case gets, and the less related to systems a Free Software project is, the less likely it is to exist or have any polish. I can list Postgres, Redis, Linux, OpenBSD, NetBSD, NodeJS, WebKit, SpiderMonkey, LLVM, GCC, Binutils, Busybox, etc., but where is the free software iMessage, Google Docs, Discord, iTunes, Steam, Google Maps, etc. There may be some of these projects out there for what I just listed, but none of them have a userbase as big as that proprietary software. The only things I can think of are VLC, Blender, and Android.

2: Free Software can only exist with Commercial Software. How many people that work in Free Software are software engineers working at a corporation? What pays for this Free Software to exist? Microsoft hosts github, big enough Free Software projects have budgets and employees at other companies paying for all of it.
I'd consider it insightful, if for no other reason than that they are able to articulate -- and often the first to do so to a large audience -- a lot of the ridiculousness in life that most of us habitually ignore, or minimize.

A lot of folks object to the characters they write, or the cheapness of the animation, but I don't think that South Park would be the success it is without either of those things. It's crudeness attracts a lot of the counterculture types unafraid to go against mores, who I think are naturally more receptive to a given episode's themes.

Stone + Parker have made it very clear that most episodes start out as a joke. But then, so do most comedians' routines. And comedians almost never need or want to explain the nature or thought process behind their jokes, because all that reasoning is encoded within the joke itself. That is part of why I think they are so insightful -- that they can form elegant, meaningful commentary on previously untouchable subject matter, using such crude tools, and get away with it. For 20 years and counting.

Who else can do that? George Carlin, and I'd maybe add Stephen Colbert and Dave Chapelle if their careers as political or social satirists hadn't effectively ended the way they did. In any case that's a pretty small club to be a part of.

Not every episode should be held to such lofty standards, of course, and I am definitely not enjoying it as much as before they started serializing everything. But overall the show has given me words and a perspective to start to think about dozens of social and cultural issues long before they came up elsewhere in my life.
Yes. People blame the court for doing the correct (if not right, because courts don't really do "right") thing.

The problem is that there's no constitutional amendment making an exception to the first amendment to limit or forbid contributions to campaigns. It should never have been an ordinary law in the first place.

Everyone knows about network effects.

Nobody thinks about the security of the users. None of our computers are secure, we all know that. We won't click on links to unfamiliar sites, or open unexpected attachments. There is safety in sticking to stuff that is centrally moderated in terms of just plain malware, if not politics or decency.
This is precisely why tech companies should not the the arbiters of news. Progressive or otherwise. We should not outsource our civic responsibilities to tech companies.

If Uber/Lyft/DD are forced to shut down, then there won't be any more drivers/delivery people to benefit. It's not for nothing that CA decided to back down after Uber and Lyft threatened to stop service in CA after their AB5.
It's true that oauth is very secure but I wouldn't assume major sites are rolling their own authentication. The standard password hashing methods and workflows are all well known and implemented.

Even if the local auth system was poor, an email/password combo is simpler and faster without leaking data to social providers. There's no reason to remember which provider you used, or login to them first, or worry about loose permissions especially with future changes. It also limits the blast radius in case your social account ever gets compromised, and it's useful for completely anonymous and disposable accounts.
If you enable fingerprinting resistance/block their attempts to run a significant amount of privacy-violating JS, you risk permanent account lockouts. This includes non-VPN. You can get account lockouts for "suspicious" on standard, non-VPN IPs, without any recaptcha weirdness.

They may also ask for ID or birthday or phone at any time. This is not something I want in a casual chat app.
Wisconsin has been gerrymandered into a Republican run state with a minority of the vote. Add in efforts to disenfranchise Democratic leaning voters and Republicans can now get a 60% supermajority of state legislature seats with 48% of the votes in the state.

Yeah, I won't deny that even the educated can be manipulated- look at our generation affected by corporate and political agendas.

Yes, totalitarian states have used education to indoctrinate masses to maintain order and power. Depends on who does the teaching and how it is taught, that is why critical thinking is key.

Given this prerequisite, is an educated population easier to be manipulated than an illiterate one?
This is very good information, but the wrong narrative.

This was not some 'fake deal' by a Chinese firm to get subsidies, it looks like they probably barely broke even on this one - if that - and no company wants to have big ugly stain failures like this.

It looks like Foxconn just bit off more than they could chew, maybe saw an opportunity, but then realized they couldn't make use of the plant. They knew what the thresholds were, could barely meet them, it had no business objective there.

Foxconn didn't win from this and so the narrative should be about states making more careful deals for payouts with companies.

Even good companies make stupid ventures here and there - the bigger the company, the more inane it looks. The huge problem here of course is the public dime. The Governor should be destroyed over this.
