Oh, I would not want to use any kind of password manager with built-in synchronization either; an integrated solution presents a much more attractive target for black hats. I've been using KeePassXC and its predecessors, and sync to other machines using Git+SSH (no third party hosting either) and to my phone using adb for a few years now. YMMV.
You aren't the only one. Those "fancy" apps are too complex IMO to be trustworthy. Neither are other people's computers (aka clouds).

My secrets are stored in plain text files which are encrypted with GnuPG. Emacs (and vi too) can handle encrypted files easily, even on an Android device using the Termux (i.e. Debian) app. Syncing with rsync (even version control software is an option) works and with a bit discipline is not a major problem.
Opera has tree tabs extension (which I'm using for a long time, but only for really threaded sessions), chrome idk. Not sure how much different it is, but the basic functionality you'd expect from tree editor is there.
Everything freezes, I can't use move the mouse. If I wait, sometimes I can hit Cmd-W and get the tab to close eventually, sometimes I literally have to do a hard power off.
Playing devil's advocate here, but the service fee (at least to my mind) is more for the maintenance & upkeep of the infra.

I'd gladly move to self-hosting if it was only me. But after a few months, I was able to convince my wife to use it for convenience and security. So if there's an issue with the self-hosted version, it wouldn't just be me impacted, but my wife. And that's an SLA you don't wanna break. :D

Also, while I know I could probably do a decent job securing the hosting server, I would rather not have that on my mind. That's not my day-job, so I'll leave it to a team of people who are paid to do that.

Lastly, the service fee is $60/yr, but for sake of argument, lets call it $100. That's 2hrs of my time at my hourly pay. If setting up a self-hosted version takes me more than 2hrs to get it running, it's not worth my time.
TikTok usage tripled in 2020 versus doubled in 2019 (according to the Verge)
excluding extensions is the exact reason I use profiles (I don't want any with access to my banking)

I use containers liberally also
> This is all accurate, but people still expect reception and speed when travelling between those dense population centres by road or rail.

Why doesn't the consumer have a choice? I'd be willing to sacrifice coverage in rural areas in exchange for 50-80% discounted tariffs, for instance.
Also the option for a picture-in-picture on a phone used to be free, then they've just decided to make it a premium feature.

Back when it was introduced on Android, it worked on YouTube just fine. Then it was intentially broken (hidden behind a paywall).
It increases the number of people who get family Apple Music subscriptions, so it makes sense from a business standpoint. iMessage on Android, however, would kill the iPhone's biggest network effect.
Yes, they are absolutely doing all of this, and it's entirely within their remit to do so because no one is entitled to any of it for free. Why should they offer all of their basic functionality for free if that means they're not making as much money as they could be if they charged for it instead? The only people they owe background audio playback to are those paying for it, and those people are getting it.
fyi, "cis" generally means "your gender identity = the gender you were assigned at birth", as opposed to being trans. it's possible to be gay + trans, or gay + cis, etc, but being gay doesn't describe anything about cis vs trans in-and-of-itself.

(thank you for the post, by the way! i thought there were some genuinely neat little tips in there.)
Third party mediated hole punching really only works with UDP. TCP is stateful and thus negotiating a hole punch requires incredibly precise timing, which is hard to achieve in practice.

Without UDP we have a purely "cloud-to-ground" Internet unless we can convince router/NAT makers to always include and always turn on UPnP/NAT-PMP. Not likely, and those protocols suck anyway.
They do, but they want reception outside of those densely urbanized pockets. They want reception on the highways between the cities, at their lake house, or if they live in a rural area. The denser population subscribers still pay for the infrastructure in low-density areas.

He made fighting disinformation something for others to strive for, or at least that was my view of him. "Critical thinking is as to friendly fire isn't"
I feel this one. I'm trying to remember what I read most about him. I watched old episodes of his skeptic TV show, exposing fraud after fraud (who never once repented) and I remember an article about him continuing to trade magic tricks with other magicians.

Reversioning is the key here. Quibi could become a $100B company just on that.

If they could figure out how to monetize schadenfreude, they might have a good shot to make a bunch of money right now.
my point is that the value of the work is not directly related with its productivity but with its availability, which doubled during the last few decades.
I definitely have some password manager anxiety. I'm not too concerned about hacks or losing my password database. For me, it's more about the sense of independence, and being able to log in to my accounts using just my noggin. I might be able to remember one or two strong passwords, but not dozens, which is kind of the selling point of a password manager.

I use KeePassXC with a password and key file. I sync the database, but not the file, using Syncthing. On the whole a satisfied customer, although the browser integration isn't perfect.
It's a brilliant freemium model that still gives everyone access except those who want a bonus luxury.

You'll have to close the gap on why you think it's bad while still acknowledging that they aren't a charity instead of just leaving your point as an exercise for the reader.

So far it's like complaining that Netflix paywalls the "basic functionality" of being able to watch their videos. Or that a game demo only gives you part of a game when you actually want all of it for free.
Is that an accurate TL;DR? I'm pretty sure no...

It's not saying you need rewards that are infinite in value per se. It's saying that you might have more situations that need to be differentiated from each other than there are real numbers. For instance, you might need to have one set of rewards that map to the real numbers, and then another set of rewards that also map to the real numbers when compared to themselves, but are all considered strictly greater than the first set.
The TST repo actually has a number of similar projects for Chromium and specifically Vivaldi on it's repo: https://github.com/piroor/treestyletab#similar-projects
"where the semantics of a particular particle require running the parser, or worse"

Yup.

Consider the much maligned (apache) httpd.conf and makefile. Their code was the source of truth for correctness. No matter horrible terrible their syntax, they would have been sufferable if they had grammars.

Bespoke parsing of expressions benefits from having an implicit grammar, like this OC. But threshold for needing explicit grammars is pretty low.

Prime examples are all the data exchange formats. Descriptions of JSON and CSV are short and naively reasonable, but insufficient. As we've seen, any ambiguity that can happen will happen.
Quit complaining, at least they have an en-gb culture.

> GPL was found to be inapplicable in French copyright court, however it should be applicable under contract law.

Do you understand exactly why the GPL was inapplicable? I was unable to figure it out from the article. My guess is that the defendant may not have actually been copying or distributing the GPL-licensed program. The defendant ran a portal for a client which incorporated the program, but it's not clear that their derived software was being distributed. So, if they did not copy or distribute the program, then their actions would not fall under copyright (or author's rights) infringement. If the copyright action failed, then the plaintiff might try a contract claim, but that doesn't mean that the GPL will necessarily be treated as a contract.

Also, could you cite some authority for the assertion that there is no distinction between licenses and contracts in French law? The concepts are quite different.
do you know about the dopamine reward error hypothesis? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6721851/ is it so wrong? what does cognitive psychology have to say about how these neurons work? this is a lot more recent than the 40s and behaviorism.
I'm a car enthusiast, and was once a Tesla skeptic. What won me over was renting a Model 3 for a weekend, and concluding that it was a _fantastic car_.

The Prius is a miserable little piece of shit for people who hate driving. The Model 3 is a superior driving experience to pretty much every other midsize sedan on the market, including BMW, Mercedes, etc.

The fact that it's "green" is just a bonus for me. I love the convenience of charging at home and never stopping for gas, the smoothness, the quiet, the linearity and directness of the power delivery, the clean and minimalist interior, and the precise and responsive handling.

The reason no other electric car is yet selling in volume the US is that Tesla has for a long time been the only one that doesn't suck. The Porsche Taycan is the first credible competitor, and I understand Porsche is already selling more of those than they do 911s.
The only passable workaround is to enable "Reuse available numbers" for container numbering setting.

At least this way yo won't end up with unusable FF because of the thousands of undeletable temporary containers.
I hate the idea of some company replacing a heavily-regulated part of society, and a cornerstone of it at that. School is less about the content and more about learning how to learn and how to function as a human being within our society.

To add to that, children probably need less YouTube...
> (Even though the worst a malicious server could do is delete your database).

Unless you use the web client, and a lot of Bitwarden's functionality is only available via its web client (including critical functionality like changing your master password).
> They are willing to have some expensive failures ($100MM-scale) if the successes will launch a "franchise"

that makes sense, and definitely feels like they were building a rocket-sized dart to throw.

it'd be interesting to see the breakdown on how much of that capital went towards engineering the app vs content/other.
If you actually try driving one you may find it's not just for the show. They are a step function in responsiveness and almost a zen like driving experience. Behaviourally the diametric opposite of a Prius. It's very very hard to go back to a fossil car after driving a Tesla.
For iOS, AdGuard solves that problem.

For Android, the other comment suggests uBlock Origin which I definitely recommend (even for other reasons beyond YouTube).
This all depends on jurisdiction, of course, but there are tons of examples. Unless you are a very unusual person, you definitely have committed some recently.

Did you ever roll through a stop sign without a complete stop or make a quick highway lane change without signaling? Reckless driving, up to officer discretion. Drove over the speed limit? Same goes many places.

Ever forget your wallet and drive without your license? Drive with slightly over a legal limit of alcohol (hard to judge correctly)? Cross over a signed private property you don't have permission to access?

Maybe you smoke and you are too close to a federal or state building access. Maybe your uncle gave you some hooch he made. Maybe you went to an unofficial nude beach.

Been "drunk/disorderly in public" ? Again officer discretion but could easily be applied to majority of people leaving a club most Friday nights.

Maybe you just live in a place where jaywalking is a misdemeanor.

Honestly the lists are long and convoluted, and in many cases the discretion left to LEO mean that nearly anyone could be written up for it. Which is sort of the point.
> The same is not true, AFAIK, with Common Lisp - being a lisp1 and having a stronger lexical scope than python does.

Common Lisp is a Lisp2.
I'm pretty sure Youtube will overtake Twitch as a streaming platform within a year now. They have implemented the features they lacked a couple of years ago like premium subscriptions for channels. And since they advertise streams in your watch next recommendations in youtube you will get a lot of spontaneous people watching them easily, while you only go to Twitch if you specifically want to watch a stream.

Some video game streamers on youtube reach 50k+ viewers regularly and donations of $10+ just keeps raining in with that audience. That isn't any less than top Twitch streamers, and the Youtube will only grow since it is so much easier for people to discover Youtube streaming than Twitch streaming.

So really I don't see Twitch being a major player in a few years. There is no reason for content creators to stay with Twitch once youtube gives them a bigger audience and more money.
I guess if you take the long view, Bitwarden still might be better here. 1Password has been around for ages and people have been asking for a Linux client nearly since the beginning.
How so? If we prioritized passengers, then rail freight will regularly take several extra hours to get places. Would that even be a real problem? Would anything else bad happen?

>At least in the North American market. (Citation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plug-in_electric_vehicles_in_t...)

Where do you see that conclusion, numbers from the wikipedia page:

300k Tesla 3

150K Tesla S

150k Volt

140k Leaf

110k Prius Electric

85k Tesla X

200k Other non-Tesla

Tesla is the largest single electric car seller but it's not even a majority of electric cars sold.
Its what the USA uses, and I guess it works fairly well here. I guess India followed the law of how to run these auctions, but did not follow it in spirit, messing things up(I'm guessing politicians fiddled with it) and led to the bad outcome.
I as a consumer find value in the quality of Google's results and consider that the bigger harm is probably worsening this index on the repository of all knowledge we know.

Therefore as competition in this space is naturally limited I would rather see a third option than status quo or break-up; recognition as a natural monopoly and regulations to benefit consumers.
You seem to be have a very fundamental misunderstanding here that "no intrinsic value" is the same thing as "worthless". You are misusing very basic economics terms. Currencies that aren't literally made out of precious metals are the textbook example used in economics texts to introduce the idea of things that lack intrinsic value.

What should we do about actions that aren't malicious, but are nevertheless harmful or put others at risk? Littering, mild traffic violations, etc.
Netflix on Linux has worked since at least 2015, although very early on you had to hack the browser string to make it work and you had to use Chrome. Now it works without fuss in Firefox as well, but you may have to install "non-free" extensions depending on the distro, so purists are still out of luck.
I use Safari as my general browser, mostly for following links from HN and reddit. The AdBlocking works well enough, and I don't really log into anything from Safari. I also use it for Twitch streaming since it's so much more stable. For those use cases, it is superior to both Chrome and Firefox.

I use Chrome for Google apps. Gmail, GCal, etc.

I use Firefox for work and isolation. So I use containers to keep all my AWS logins/consoles separate, I use it for Github, I use it for my own internal apps and dev (and all the dev tools). If for some reason I need to do Facebook or Insta I do it in FF, and it's isolated into its own container.

Firefox is also my default browser, so if I click a link in another app, it'll open in a container in Firefox.

This is the exact opposite of what the parent poster was arguing against which was the claim that the TelCos had poor returns (ie they were NOT particularly beneficial to those entities).
It’s kind of funny they got Meg Whitman to be the CEO of Quibi. Pretty sure Bella Poarch (or someone similar) would be a more appropriate choice for knowing how to get something viral.

Before others crucify me for not paying for the content: I'm paying for a subscription service where most of the YouTube channels I follow mirror their content (https://watchnebula.com/). I just cut out Google as an unnecessary middleman.

They don't, though, they vote for (mostly, there's a few exceptions) statewide slates of electors.

But that's because the ballot is a lie.

Everyone else in this thread is talking about how Netflix _now_ (or sometime recently) works, but it didn’t for about a decade.

The difference is the market share for Linux. It wasn’t that important. Restricting a paid video service, especially where the content are professionally produced, to mobile devices, and where you can’t use the excuse that it’s a social media platform, sounds like suicide.
Maybe it's possible to run AGI on a Turing machine, maybe it's not,

Arguing from ignorance, of course nothing is knowable for certain. However there has been a lot of work on the universality of Turing machines, showing that a Turing machine can simulate any conceivable concept of finite computation and can approximate any conventional physical system.

I think a more useful way to express your intuition is to note that if human-built AGI comes into existence, it might be runnable on a Turing machine but quite possibly not efficiently so.
Choose a .NET Game Engine
"I think Google is the best search engine."

The OP is arguing that this case is about default settings, similar to the Microsoft case.

In practice, someone else is deciding what is the "best" search engine for the vast majority of users, as these users never change default settings.

It is arguable Google is paying millions of dollars to remove choice, and the question of what is the "best" search engine. If there were no "search from the address bar" or other "built-in search" with Google set as the default, what would happen. Would users choose Google. We cannot know because Google's distribution agreements have foreclosed the issue. Even if we all agree users would choose Google anyway, because it is unquestionably "the best", this does not explain why Google, with its monopoly on search, pays millions to become the default.

Because the use of a search engine has been made a matter of "settings", e.g., address bar as search box, and not a conscious choice, e.g., typing the address of a search engine, Google's distribution agreements have removed user choice. The choice of search engine has already been made for them.

It is like crapware that comes pre-installed on computers. One can argue users make a "choice" whether to use these programs or not, but the choice of whether to install them in the first instance has been removed, in exchange for payments. Sometimes the distributors make it difficult or near impossible to remove these programs, assuming a user even knows how to remove programs.

Thanks to Google's negotiations with distributors, in order to "not use Google search", users have to change "settings". Generally, relatively few people ever modify settings. Hence there is a certain permanence to "settings". Companies pay millions to become the "default". There is nothing inherently "illegal" in making such agreements. However when the company paying millions to become the default already has a monopoly, then we have to question what is the true purpose of these distribution agreements.
Just last week there was a fire in my apartment complex: 47 cars burned in the underground garage, the building directly above has to be demolished because of the damage it took. 70 families lost their homes. Reason? Electric car exploded while charging. I think that after initial enthusiasm there will be a push back against electric cars due to safety concerns.

EDIT: Burning electric vehicles are much harder to put down than, say gas cars, because, for one they don't need external source of oxygen, and second, there's much more of fuel to burn: 1200 lbs of batteries in a Tesla vs 10 gallons (85 lbs) of gas in the tank of an average car. Electric cars will probably be banned from underground parkings, sooner or later.

And saying that gas cars are "destroying the planet" is just ridiculous - they are maybe 5% of total CO2 emissions. And electric cars are actually responsible for even more emissions - not from burning fuel, obviously, but just manufacturing it releases more carbon dioxide than an average gas-powered car will in its 25 years lifecycle.

This is true. The USA has over 10x the population and 238x the land area. A national train system = dollar amounts that the human mind can't really grasp.
How much bitcoin is traded peer to peer vs traded on huge exchanges like Coinbase, Robinhood, etc? Seems pretty centralized to me.
I recently bought an electric car and I have to say it's much nicer than any combustion car I've driven. It's silent, it accelerates instantly, it's cheaper to operate because electricity is cheaper than gas, and I never have to waste my time going to the gas station. Can't travel cross country, but I haven't done that in a decade and I'd want to rent a larger car for a road trip anyway.
Almost anyone with a law degree can get access to LexisNexis or any number of databases that slurp data from public and private source so people can deliver their court summons, lawsuits, etc. If it hit a big company's database somewhere, it's probably included. Any police department without access to such a data source already is too small or incompetent to put it to use.

One of the reasons is that because of European regulation every car company is dropping as many vehicles as they can into Europe. China is going into the same direction.

US is the market where ICE has the longest runway and car makers try to make profit from their ICE as long as they can.
