You would be well served reading about the socialist states of the 20th century. There is literally none that conserved the doctrine of worldwide proletarian revolution. The closest was Trotsky in the USSR, but he never came close to power. It was all "socialism in one country". Therefore the accusation that they are openly imperialist states angling for world conquest is simply counterfactual, literally all socialist states decided that they were happy trying out socialism in their own territory and didn't pursue a worldwide socialist revolution.

Much less one under their own control, as they were historically mostly fine with leaving other socialist state do their affairs alone.

Not only that, but forceful revolution wasn't even something that was promoted unless absolutely necessary. For example, Marx, when corresponding with British communists, spoke about the possibility to install socialism through electoral means. This is obviously not possible everywhere, as in general if you called yourself a socialist in many "democratic" countries you'd be beat or killed, even if you wanted to do via democratic means.

It's easy to accuse everyone else of arguing a good faith when you don't even know what you are arguing against. If you want to make a cogent argument against socialism, and that is certainly possible, I'd suggest actually knowing what you are arguing against, because so far you've mostly been arguing against a strawman.
There's a wide gulf between believing that "the government can listen in on any conversation" and "the government is comprised of lizard people".

The article is about the latter.
TLS proxies are easy to fingerprint. The remote end (or intermediate routers) may not be able to deduce that it is in fact Mitmproxy that is running, but at least it can see a non standard ja3 fingerprint. Depending on that it might take different actions on what to show/do to the client.
Some way to customize the client hello (look like the one from chrome, firefox ...) would be awesome :)
afaik it would be the first proxy solution which does that.
Let's take one of the older conspiracy theories: 9/11 was an inside job.

* "something that is known to have happened" - Yep, 9/11 did happen. And some people say they KNOW that it was an inside job.

* "especially something for which proof exists" - job of the CIA is to exactly prevent such a thing, they did not.

* "or about which there is information" - come on. I won't link conspiracy theory websites here.

So, in the end, your definition does not contradict that someone calls the 9/11 conspiracy theory a "fact".

The first point is debatable - but then you could apply the same logic to WW1 or any other history event.

Therefore, I don't like your definition of fact.

This seems literally deranged to me. I'm not a fan of Trump, but rhetoric about how he's literally Hitler and the worst president ever has caused me to jump ship. Voted Clinton last time, voted Trump this time.

Another commentator here mentioned this and the hint was worth gold. In the meantime, I changed/adjusted this in the interface of my website provider (I am also using his SMTP server) and solved an actual problem of this kind immediately (maybe also explaining the shortcomings in the past).

In general, I would admit that it is not a compelling excuse not to know something. The problem is, that I was not even aware of these keywords and after looking them up, I seemingly solved things quickly and - hopefully - permanently. People just don't constantly check all things. Especially with long term reliable services with rare, subtle and not obvious (in this case without any hint) errors.
"But sources ranging from former Obama administration officials to an anti-corruption advocate in Ukraine say the official, Viktor Shokin, was ousted for the opposite reason Trump and his allies claim.

"It wasn't because Shokin was investigating a natural gas company tied to Biden's son; it was because Shokin wasn't pursuing corruption among the country's politicians, according to a Ukrainian official and four former American officials who specialized in Ukraine and Europe."

I was talking to some friends who are teachers about remote learning the other day. They were saying many of their students (they work in rural areas) had the devices but no access to internet. It's a very complex issue now with all the restrictions.
We had something similar happen with our corporate twitter account that we’ve had for eight years. Our news site, agfundernews.com is the sites of record for foodtech and agtech innovation/investment and Twitter inexplicably locked us out with no recourse.
I'm the owner of the modem. I've found about this a couple of months back when I moved the modem to its own vlan and noticed the broadcast frames. I did some research into the author of the poem on Twitter (https://twitter.com/riojot/status/1268821579724541954), but nothing fruitful.

If anyone knows how the poem ended up in my modem, or even just what's ethertype 0x8300 all about, please comment!
As a right-handed person imagining writing left handed, I think the minimal inconvenience of learning to write with the other hand sounds like it far outweighs a lifetime of smeared ink. I don't think it would cause me too much inconvenience to switch hands and I would hardly call it cruel.

Interesting, and how did come to the conclusion that god exists?
I wouldn't have been tailgating a political opponent, that's for sure. Slowing down would have been a smart move. Leaving an appropriate length behind that bus would have been a smart move.

What I see in a video are a bunch of Trump supporters attempting to intimidate a political opponent. If that doesn't terrify you, you might be too far gone.
Cool post. What did your app do? And counterfactually, are you sure that talking to ppl would have helped? Easy to rationalise afterwards and say that it would have.

We are also just in the process of talking to potential customers before building our prototype. Would you be interested? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24969270
That sounds like just what I'd be interested in watching. Any suggestions?

That's a good example. I often do the reverse: watching 90s or older movies with modern eyes. It can be incredibly refreshing to watch older movies that have a slower and more relatable vibe.

It's like closing the door and hanging the key next to the door for all to see. Definitely not an effective technical measure to protect the house.

EDIT: And not to forget that Youtube hosts many CC-BY licensed videos which explicitly allow unlimited use (incl. decryption if necessary), and that Youtube has contracts with copyright collectives in most countries so for any user it is save to assume that the video is legally uploaded (and thus download and store for personal use is legal in most countries).
> This is why one of the methods advocated for in curing people of conspiracy-theory thinking, is providing them a warm and supportive atmosphere where they feel part of a community, and not trying to challenge their ideas head on.

Very interesting. I guess by creating a network of trust, they can begin to trust information from outside sources.

Where can I find information about this method? I have a friend that is deeply into conspiracy theories. The "head-on" approach has not worked, any advice appreciated. It's sad to hear that people give up on life-long relationships, I know I have a limit too but I try to remember who they were and recognize that they have good hearts but unhealthy minds.
Once I saw the title of that video I knew they were all nonsense. What an inhumane thing to say, as if how hard you work has anything to do with what kind of person you are. Is there a certain net worth where you cross a line and no longer have a heart? The problem is not inequality, it's poverty.

What if the faith in God was rational? I mean to YOU it doesn't seem rational, but to the faithful it does.

I mean one logical, rational argument used is that the universe and life is incredibly complicated, we as "mere" humans cannot create it, and it's incredibly unlikely humans would develop like we did. Therefore, there must be intelligent design behind it.

See? Rational and logical thought. Dismissing people who think differently as being irrational is just alienating and pushing them away, entrenching them even more if you go in with a judgment and mindset like that. It would make you scoff at "these people", because they're irrational unlike you, the epitome of rationality and logical thought.

TL;DR, assume the "other side" is just as smart and rational as you are, they just have different ideas.
A lot of the things listed on the DMCA repo (if not most of them) are not software that could be used to download content, but the literal content you could obtain using them, such as textbooks, proprietary fonts, and so on.

By taking down youtube-dl, Github has opened a window for copyright trolls to speculate about what a repository is used for, and take it down if one of its use cases involves downloading copyrighted content.

I can see how it's legitimate to take down a repository with the sole, explicit goal of downloading copyrighted content, but youtube-dl is widely used by journalists to preserve uncopyrighted content.
It is actionable, the powers that be are simply averse to acting on it. I will never understand the drive to preserve nation constructs that are barely a century old in many cases at all costs.
In the past, the advertiser would likely to tell that to the people selling ad space.

Then, they’d suffer political blowback for being anti-LGBT.

It sounds like Google is laundering third party behavior that is further dividing our society.

Perhaps advertisers should be forced (by the government, on all algorithmic platforms) to publish their targeting criteria.

I get your hesitation, but it’s not advertising. You didn’t want your mom to take you and your crush to the movie theater. You didn’t want to wait 30 minutes until after practice to get picked up because your parents both work until 5.

> There is no such thing as a conspiracy theory. Every conspiracy theory in existence can be explained in terms of math, technology, physics, psychology and behavioral biology.

I don't know whether that is true of every conspiracy theory, but here is one example that supports your point:

While finishing up teacher's college, I was paired with a maths teacher who believed in 9/11 conspiracy theories and who mentioned them in class. From his point of view, a delayed "explosion" lower down in the tower was evidence that the destruction was planned. Left in an awkward position, I did the only thing I could think of: I used math. Simply put, the time that it would take a shock wave to propagate through the steel structure matched the delay so the "explosion" did not prove his conspiracy theory. That was one heck of a teachable moment that transformed an otherwise abstract math lesson into something that could be applied to every day life.

(Edit: clarification on the intent of the calculation.)
The French passage has a nice wit to it: "The secret of a great fortune without apparent origin is a forgotten crime, because it has been done properly."

The other way round. Any shocking video trending on twitter will start with a -100 credibility as people will think "just another deepfake".

You are assuming people will have never heard of these deepfakes. Sure there are still a few grannies today who have never heard of photoshop. But your average twitter user?

This would not work for any serious/useful service: e-mails are not only for marketing, there are many good reasons to send one like (user requested) notifications, invoicing, ... and also screw-ups!

Translation from Dropbox to English
You probably shouldn't rely on some random HN poster for your definition of what herd immunity means. It's a well defined term in the epidemiological field, and definitions are readily available via sites such as Wikipedia and search engines.
Yeah, it surely won't convince OP. But public web discussion answers are rarely only intended for the parent poster. Often there is even a "private message" option for those few that are, all others are for the wider audience as well. If something as mockable as q posturing is left unmocked the impression on third parties can be very different than if it is not and the purpose of the reply is (I assume, not the author) this change.
That's been my suspicion ever since they fired everyone remotely clueful who worked there.
Yes, I think Gordon Hollingsworth from Raspberry Pi has posted somewhere specifically how to do it (maybe in the comments on the post on the Pi website?).
A really interesting example of this is the whole glyphosate case that /r/environment goes nuts over.

On the one hand, nearly every scientific, health and farming community in the world says using glyphosate is safe. Yet there was a legal case that said otherwise - so /r/environment jumped on that as truth. Legal precedence science does not make.

Thinking like that also makes it really easy to create new laws, e.g. that homosexuality is an affront to god and should be illegal. Then claim it as scientific fact for the opposing side.
With more individuals having immunity, it's likely the disease won't reach as many individuals who are vulnerable because they lack immunity and have underlying medical conditions. It's the level when outbreaks can stay localized instead of spreading to everyone.
This makes me scared to report security bugs to Google.
> Once the Nazis assumed power, Tworek shows, they consolidated and emulated the existing news system, rather than dismantling it altogether. The Nazis set up their new state news agency (the “German News Bureau,” or DNB) by simply merging Wolff and Telegraph Union, promoting Nazi-sympathetic journalists through the ranks, firing its Jewish employees, and tightening the reins of censorship that Weimar officials themselves had “fitted to the horse,” so to speak. Crucially, Nazi officials preserved Weimar-era technologies and contracts with the world's most powerful news agencies. Using the Hellschreiber—a teletypewriter that could broadcast news to multiple receivers at once, and was a capstone of Weimar attempts to counteract British cable hegemony—the Nazis could diffuse their news far and wide. In short, the Nazi Party benefitted from the very press system whose economic and bureaucratic infrastructures it rose to popularity critiquing, finding them incredibly well-suited for totalitarian ends.
With USB sticks it's a different story. There are some manufacturers like Sandisk who claim they use wear leveling in all of their current USB sticks.

microSD is a mess in this regard. Wear leveling is less common there and only present in very specific and expensive niche models.
> AWS gives you all the things you'd need to scale, without heavy up-front costs

A startup doesn't need AWS right off the bat. Planning for scale right from the beginning is a way to quickly bleed $. Of course, if you have VC money, why not spend that cash right?

Where I work we've started non-AWS and have continued non-AWS. We don't have a team of devops engineers, but rather a team where there are a engineers who _can_ do devops. I dread the day we need to move to AWS, but it's much easier moving to AWS than off it.
Thank you, I'm glad that you enjoyed the article!

Regarding computed and simple goto I'd like to reference our early article discussing the parser in standard goto https://natsys-lab.blogspot.com/2014/11/the-fast-finite-stat... . My recent talk at scale https://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale/17x/presentations/fast-... (watch videohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQc4er8ng64&feature=youtu.be... and slides at http://www.tempesta-tech.com/research/http_str.pdf ) discusses the parser with the compiler extensions.

We also found hat Ragel parser generator (using the goto state machine) generated somewhat faster large state machines than Bison (switch-drived state machine). However, as pointed out in the SCALE talk goto works better only on big enough state machines.
Um, the real reason CFOs go for cloudserver solutions is tax reasons. The tax breaks for "leasing" instead of owning, are a cheap way of an exec looking good to a board (plus it's easier to do creative accounting). I promise you, this accounts for easily 70% of equipment leasing/renting agreements, no matter the industry. Construction, printing, food industry, etc. They get a full tax break on the lease and on the service agreement tied into it. This looks good in the short term, but is obviously shit in the long term. I've been apart of too many arguments with clients about this. The person who signs the cheques always mentions the tax incentives and the lower initial yearly costs. But then they lose their ass 5 years down the line. You can argue tech reasons all you want, but it's ego driven money that drives the cloud industry.

Wile I agree mostly with the author... wtf is all the hate with C# I see from people? lol "whatever the heck people use C# for". This pops up so often. C# is the F-350, Catipillar, Kubota of the tech world. Yea, it ain't sexy, but it's meant to just get work done. When it works, no one notices. But when people screw with it, yea, it's easy to laugh at like the videos of crane construction fails (mostly operator error is to blame). While other tech might be the Bentley and Ferrari, they're either all looks and no muscle or catch on fire when something minor goes wrong (looking at you MongoDB :P).
I've bounced around Google, Microsoft, and Fastmail for the last 4-5 years trying to find a sort of "holy grail" solution but I've learned there really isn't one. Google comes closest (for me personally), but the privacy implications and vendor lock-in always end up scaring me away.

Fastmail has really outstanding mail support, but their calendar service definitely leaves a lot to be desired (i.e. if you want to share a calendar with a spouse with any sort of authentication, spouse needs an account too), and their file support is minimal.

I think the answer is diversification and make sure you're a paying customer for whatever service you use. Use your own domain, spread your data around, use standard formats (text, etc.), and keep backups. Otherwise, you're just asking for trouble.
Are there any tools that could use to back everything up on another Google account? (May cost twice the price)
Git as a Deployment Tool
Thinking abstractly, it doesn't seem to be cruel indeed. But I'm not left-handed, and people I know that are and have experienced it have called it such; I'm not sure whether it's the practice itself or just the common everyday teacher cruelty, but having experienced the latter myself, I wouldn't want to have one more reason to be otherfied by them.
Q is so out there that I suspect it was made to "poison the well" so to speak. When it appeared there was some genuine controversy regarding certain political persons and their associates instagram profiles where they posed with fistful of euros, drugs and various children who literally looked like they were nabbed from the streets. Also terms such as "chicken lover" was frequently used in association to pictures of grown men holding little kids.

I am not saying that comet ping pong has a rape dungeon, but its undisputable that they had some pretty wierd entertainment shows featuring "not so kid friendly" nudity, anal insertions etc.

For me Q seems to be a useful excuse for the media to assert censorship and filtration of information. Its just noise put out for those who actively seek out the fringe or the controversial. Like when political forums are bombarded with flat earthers, same shit. Just useful idiots used to spread noise. I believe its some letter soup shenanigans to be honest.
This is a really interesting idea, using machine learning to analyze dynamical systems. I've had this idea kicking around in my head about using machine learning on complex time series data for a sort of anomaly detection. You could use example time series data to train a neural network to find conserved quantities in the system, essentially trying to learn the internal energy of the system, and then changes in that internal energy would be your anomalies.

It looks like this paper is getting at the same basic idea, though obviously actually fleshed out and with better results than I would have thought were possible. It's going not for anomaly detection but actual forecasting, and directly isolating the non-conserved force.

I'll need to start reading the related papers, I wonder if people have tried doing this with nonlinear equations, or systems where the dynamics aren't well defined? I imagine actually forecasting a nonlinear system wouldn't be possible beyond short time frames, but maybe you could still learn the underlying equation and dynamics? It would be interesting to see if you could give a neural network a bunch of nonlinear data and have it find equilibrium points, identify regions where the dynamics are almost linear, etc.
