I pointed out it was clumsy ;-)

But I think the larger context is he knew he was on tape so he should know better than to willfully do something that would be taken as sexual harassment.

I honestly think he tried to come off as caring, just failed spectacularly.
Google and Facebook both don't use git. Google uses a proprietary, perforce-esque system with multiple frontends, and Facebook uses Mercurial.

Among startups, I'm sure git holds a near monopoly, but if you move into other parts of the industry, that monopoly loosens.

NB: Everyone in the leak got that email, and all of those emails have the same bitcoin wallet. [To be exact, emails went out in batches and each batch has a shared wallet].

We've been trying to spread the good word and make people understand the hackers can't know who paid, because they didn't generate a wallet for every single user. If they can't know who paid, how would they be able to delete your data.

But many people will probably end up paying, because 200 euros seems like a low price to keep your dignity and privacy.

My principle use of youtube-dl is through other tools for multimedia playback, most typically mpv, mps-youtube, and other command-line media playback --- video rarely interests me, and the ability to throw randfom URLs at mpv and have it find and play the appropriate media files (sometimes YouTube, Twitter URLs w/media (https://toot.cat/@dredmorbius/104565986372976258), often podcasts, other video hosting sites, Soundcloud, etc.), is quite the win.

In mpsyt I can curate search and lists for playback (painful or impossible with the Youtube Web client), mpv can take files with lists of URLs to play. Both use youtube-dl for media access

Very often audio-only for headless/background playback.

Also for offline playback when not on WiFi or hardline LAN link.

There's also considerable processing and metadata tools available, including grabbing transcripts from YouTube videos.

Yes, it is better for power to reside with people who are easily replaced and/or ignored if necessary. I'd rather have Twitter go off the rails than my local council.

However, it is still a scandal and worth bringing everyobody's attention to. I don't think we've ever seen such naked politicking by a tech company in the West. This is a concerning new low for Silicon Valley.

It cost Mozilla 0 marginal costs to make google their default search engine, yet it was their primary source of revenue and funded their organisation almost entirely for many years. That certainly didn't make all their google search bar revenue profit. Also as Apple sell more devices they can and do charge Google more, so making better phones and marketing them well, both of which incur costs, earns more search bar revenue. That's direct causal line between costs and that revenue. The fact they also have other revenue doesn't change that. Whole companies have failed because the owners bought that fallacy and fundamentally misunderstood how their own business worked.

I have no dog in the race, as I am not an US citizen nor do I live in the US. However, it's very disheartening to see a country, which a couple of decades ago was seen as the shining beacon of democracy, see their democratic process dragged through the mud by people the likes of you, who are more interested in fabricating propaganda and conduct smear campaigns than actually help out their country rise above their internal problems.

That explains variations in the case of people having to show up daily at the office in some location. The market is that location and you have to pay a rate expected in that area / market.

But in the case of remote, isn't the market the whole area to which you're open? If a company is open to hiring from the entire US, the market becomes the whole country. So if you decide on hiring engineer E, why would you pay more if E decides to live in SF instead of [low COL city]? E is the same exact person and whatever work they do is not dependent on where they happen to be.

The only variation I could see as "fair" would be dependent on how taxation varies. I'm not familiar with how these things work in the US, but if there's variation in payroll or income tax due to the state where the employee actually works, I can understand that for a given cost the company, the employee's after tax salary may vary.

Thus it always was. Back in the day in America there were a few big newspapers (basically, USA Today plus a couple of local city or state papers) and three TV channels. They all broadly agreed on what was important and how to present it. That was "the news", and it shaped how people saw the world.

If you were so inclined you could find some alternative points of view in the right newsagents, but mainstream mass-media generally represented a single perspective, and that was the filter through which most people saw the world.

People back then complained that the "Republocrats" were a cosy duopoly. There was no culture war because a large majority of Americans were part of a single culture. (As long as you were white, of course. If you were anything else then nobody cared what you thought).

> I could not help but thinking at the end, this is really awesome but s-expressions are kind of hard to read and reason about for my brain, it would be cool if we could generate them from more readable syntax, maybe something like javascript :D .

So many people start out thinking like this when they learn Clojure or some other Lisp and then after like 2-4 weeks of reading Lisp code, any C-like code starts to look comparatively irregular and Lisp feels much easier to read.
TypeScript! It hits a really pragmatic sweet spot between strong typing and fast development speed. Plus being able to use the same language for both the front end and back end (and in some cases share code between them) is a huge win for productivity.
> But it's strange that its lead example is the Times' exposé of Trump's taxes, which even it admits is "real information" that suggests "potentially real" tax fraud (plus Trump not being as wealthy as claimed, what a surprise). Should it not be news that the Times found what Trump had been going out of his way to conceal for four years?

It's hard to follow but his complaint here seems to be kind of a wonkish insider lament about the media reaction he expects to follow the NYT story, not the story itself. And in particular that his own article years earlier in Rolling Stone already told the same basic story about Trump as con man but I guess won't get any credit.

As for the list of bombshells, there a link to another story which steps through many references to news stories in turn, in a narrative style, not an enumerated list.

And others would assume, that there are other philosophies out there regarding ssl everywhere. So the question is, who's POV has more validity and logical rigor attached to it. I actually can't see any side winning here on a purely logical level. Only on an ideological level. At least as long as we are talking about consuming public information.

Am I in favor of the aggressiveness of OP in other posts? No. Am I using SSL myself. Hell yes.

Nonetheless, I understand that there are people who feel that consuming public information like on a private homepage is nothing that necessitates using SSL. Even if I myself have a different ideology/value set governing my decision.

I once heard the comparison that it is like the difference of sending a letter and sending a picture postcard. Not sure if I buy into that, but I can't argue against it on a purely rational basis.
Distributing an exact copy or paraphrased content of an original work would be subject to copyright, but if a model just generates its own inferences, I don't see how it's different from say a human generated review.
It’s a little tricky because there has to be some level of selfish motives for a business with many stakeholders to take a gamble like that.

Like, the UC system was paying extraordinary amounts of money for their access to that publishing platform, and the platform wanted even more for the privilege of making the articles free to the public. There was a selfish incentive there too (10s of millions of dollars). Even though they had plenty of money to just pay the fee, they could argue that they were financially benefitting themselves while also helping the entire academic community. I don’t think businesses/organizations would ever do something totally altruistically without some inward benefit.

I think the math for Epic Games leans more selfishly in their lawsuit than many others, but I don’t think the motivations were entirely selfish either. It’s possible that I’m wrong though.

Perfect clarity is difficult, but the IAEA (which designed that graphic) did their homework. The symbol was tested with 1,650 people from a wide variety of countries. I haven't been able to find details on their results, but I can't imagine they would have settled on this design if there were straightforward improvements to be made.

(With regard to your particular ideas, any graphical division between sections in the graphic could be misunderstood as a protective barrier against the danger represented by the skull. Wrong message entirely!)

And it's certain to be an improvement on the standard radioactivity symbol. In a global context, recognition of that symbol is poor -- it's frequently understood as a propeller or a flower.
I'm not sure how that works in practice. Even with the CoL adjustment, people from lower CoL area still cost less.

Say a company has a choice between engineer H from a high CoL area and engineer L from a low CoL area. They are otherwise comparable in their skills, experience, etc. Why would they hire H when L is expected to be able to do the job to the same standard?

How is this eliminating competition based on location? People would move to a lower CoL area, so they could get an advantage.

> Are only gui based webbrowsers with large market share the only legal way to access multimedia content?

I believe they are the only supported way to access content on YouTube. As for whether the unofficial ways to access YouTube are legal, that depends on whether they circumvent a “technological measure that effectively controls access” [1] to copyrighted works. That’s not so clear, but YouTube does obfuscate its code to make the task of tools like youtube-dl harder.

That needs to end.

I wasn't talking salaries, I was talking about prices for selling products, same as thaumasiotes. I mentioned salaries only because payroll is a component of the production cost of a product.

And when it comes to location, I was talking about the location of the buyer. You're talking about the location of the employee. With a physical product being sold by onsite employees, the location of the buyer and the employee are the same. But with a digital product the location of the buyer and the employee are not necessarily the same, so something purchased in a high CoL area could have been produced by an employee in a low CoL area, and vice versa. So it doesn't make much sense to change the price of a product based on the location of the buyer in that case.

Typing this out, I realized there's an error in my previous comment, I didn't need to say "and fully remote employees". A digital product is sufficient to uncouple the employee's CoL from the buyer's CoL. The employees can all be onsite and the CoLs between the buyer and employees would still be uncoupled.

If you take anything away from that: brackets are the most compact way to serialize a tree, for some reason they are called s-expressions. The parse tree for lisp is the syntax tree, you just rename each bracket node to whatever the first atom in the bracket happens to be.

One thing that XML could have done that s-expressions can't is a way to serialize a dag if proper nesting of tags wasn't required. I'm playing around with a language based on that, the mental load of having no clear way to delineate blocks visually makes it hard to reason about, unfortunately.

> Some writers refer to this process as "neoliberalism" as the effort seemed motivated by a desire to bring back the old era of laissez faire.

Some writers refer to this as helping a country use the IMF as a political crap shield to enact necessary policies that would be otherwise politically nightmares to pull but are absolutely necessary to implement in order to get the state's finances under control.

I lived in a country that was subjected to an IMF intervention after their government bankrupted the state, and the IMF's role on the recovery was done mainly by eliminating heavy subsidies and cash transfers from the state to a few public-in-name-but-private-in-operation companies which were chronically underfinanced and politically unable to change their pricing models to allow them to cover their operational cost. So yeah, the IMF name was used to justify price hikes, but let's not fool ourselves into believing that those reforms didn't had a positive impact on the state's expenditure.
