there is some truth to this and i have experienced this first hand. which makes me wonder: what is the ideal number for effective self goverance..as in representation by vote for taxation as well as governance.

if i were to hazard a guess..it would be a range of 250 - 1 million.
What are some ways you’ve applied these suggestions during this tumultuous year?
Interesting. I have no idea this free account rule existed. I have been under the impression you NEED the $99 account to do this.

But he is an American. Dual citizenship doesn’t mean he isn’t American.
If you constructed that spear with the only stick on the island, would you still hold that it is ethical for you to keep it for yourself?

Can you claim ownership of part (or the whole) of the island?
It really isn't. You can definitely download code into Scriptable and Pythonista, although I don't think they have package managers.

"Above all, the Athenian rich paid their taxes because they craved the social success that came from their compatriots publicly identifying them as citizens who are good because they are useful."

This part really resonated with me.
I'd still be championing the need to investigate if Trump won, and it was Biden's team calling out the discrepancies.

Admittedly, I'm still trying to track down some more info on the rumored last minute software update in Georgia I believe it was and some more info on some rather interesting age demographics.

I don't doubt that if there was an election to pique voter mobilization, it'd be this one. I just know I'd sleep more soundly knowing some of the numerical strangeness rumored to be going on was looked into wholeheartedly.
Perhaps you missed my point. Lawn mowers didn't get more dangerous. The level of danger hasn't gotten worse in that one respect. The level of trust might have changed. The acceptance of risk might have changed. I don't think that keeping my kid away from the lawn mower in order to protect them makes their life overall better or even safer.

Lawn mowers are dangerous. But that doesn't mean they should be banned. As you wrote, that's life. The solution isn't to think they aren't dangerous. The solution is to recognize the danger, then act appropriately. We just all have different ideas of what's appropriate.
We call them "destroyers" nowadays.

(The Zumwalt-class destroyer displaces ~15,000 tons, which is too large to be considered a cruiser under the terms of the inter-war naval treaties, and is roughly the displacement of a 1910s-era South Carolina-class battleship).
Most likely editors have decided that some kind of language like that should be in articles about the election and either the writers are simply paraphrasing it each time or the same editor edited these articles.
I'm old enough that I voted for Clinton, and yes I did see it that way and since then I haven't criticized any politician about sexual indiscretions. I think it reflects negatively on character but its a common flaw.

I try to look past Trump's character flaws but they are so embarrassing and cringe inducing, and when you add the poor foreign policy, bungled COVID response and really very serious incitement of hatred, violence, and division he's created its really still quite perplexing but I appreciate your thoughts on it.
> to have effective sandboxing, you need to restrict the APIs that a device can call, which means blocking the ability to generate and run arbitrary machine code on-device.

Please, no, this is not how security and sandboxing works at all. Otherwise, the moment you have an arbitrary code vulnerability, you'd get full access to everything.

The way effective sandboxing works is by giving a process a set of capabilities/permissions, what have you, that is enforced by the kernel. Those permissions can be "can I open files", "can I talk to the camera subsystem", etc. Then, even if you somehow manage to generate the right function call at runtime, the call will fail. And to be clear, this is how apple's own security works.
Censorship implies that information has been invisibly removed by some absolute authority. Whereas here we're talking about empowering users to filter out the stuff on their terms - i.e. subjective/relative reputation. It's possible that a server admin might apply unilateral filters, but a) the user would be able to visualise those (assuming the server admin doesn't maliciously withhold that info), b) the user can switch to another server with different filtering rules. So, I definitely wouldn't characterise it censorship (although I can see why many have a kneejerk reaction of "ooh, this sounds a lot like censorship").
"Motivation for what?" is the question. If you've got enough money, properly invested, such that you don't need another job, then, this is not the question you should be asking. Ask yourself "What is the thing I would most like to be doing now?" and "What could I be doing now that would have the most impact?"

These are both kind of vague questions, but that's because you have to answer them for yourself. If the answers are the same, then you have a goal to work for that will probably motivate you quite well. If the answers are different, then you can decide based on whatever feels best for you.

You might also consider posting in some of the FIRE-related forums, particularly on Reddit. There are some good resources there, not the least of which is the community of people who can tell you how they approached questions like this in their lives.
But iSH isn’t running arbitrary machine code, it’s a x86 emulator running Linux inside. It’s more sandboxed than a JS runtime, which actually does compile down to machine code.
The Trump Accountability Project is what I was referring to.
That's not actually what Veritasium found. What they found is evidence that there aren't health benefits to the ions themselves, and there are potential harms from the ozone pollution that many of those generators create.

But for air filtration, properly working negative ion generators certainly cause particles to leave the air: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7QFJgTjzcc

The thing is, that means they end up on surfaces near the ion generator. That isn't necessarily a good thing. Proper HEPA filters are more likely to be what you want, as they remove particles entirely, putting them in a filter that can be disposed of.
And that is exactly why it is shameful. You have confused the digital version, the version added in recent years to make the series more palatable for HD tv, with the original model shots. The original enterprise was never pink/purple. The original, as seen on TV, isn't on that wikipedia page. People will see that page and think that is what it looked like back in the 70s. That is why wikipedia is not a historical resource.

Also, note the aspect ratio. The original series was 4:3, not 16:9.
You need to take into account that lots of apps rely on advertisement (especially these days), and another big chunk is made to interact with something else that makes the money (like Netflix or Amazon).

I always assumed that there is a lot of soft plagiarism in news, a lot of articles are essentially "here is some news that this other outlet has already reported" sometimes with long (uncited) chains, it would not surprise me if they were both copying a third source.

(even if the simplest solution is that they had a common editor, or that either or both articles have uncredited authors; my understanding is that uncredited secondary writers are quite common in news)
You'll have to provide material scientific evidence for every one of the claims, otherwise, though there's a ton of truthiness in there, it's also a lot of pop psychology.

Many of our greatest leaders exhibit a lot of those traits (though not the existentially negative one's i.e. they are only motivated by their own power etc.).

'Looking down on others as incompetent' is not a negative sign if said individuals are incompetent.

'Interrupting/speaking over others' is in most cases just a sign of possibly poor communication, and frankly in many cases warranted. Just because you are 'speaking' does not give you the right to monopolize someone else's time with your thoughts. Some people, myself in included have difficulty 'getting to the point' and I'm used to leaders interrupting me, it's fine.

'Pontification' 'Telling Stories' - often is at the root of positive charismatic leadership. Plebes want to believe that their jobs have a higher purpose, a 'mission', they generally want the koolaid so long as it's not too out of hand.

'Chaotic Climate' - again, some systems work better when they are in more or less permanent chaos or in an ambiguous state. Not 'panic' obviously, but in entrepreneurism chaos is often the defining quality of the situation, those that can't live with that may want to work elsewhere.

"Appears unsympathetic to others’ concerns" - sorry - again, one person has absolutely no material right to require that some other person is sympathetic to their concerns. Of course a sympathetic leader makes us 'feel better', but most mature, senior workers who have emotional maturity could care less if their bosses are 'empathetic'. If management isn't listening because they are 'wrong' or 'missing something' then that's altogether a different stories.

Politically astute leaders take this one to the bank - appear to be 'empathetic' when really it's just an infantile, placating emotional display that has nothing materially to do with anything. They do this because a lot of emotionally immature people respond to it.

"Disdain for human frailty or weakness of any kind" - this one I think is adding to the list of 'made up' 'unscientific tropes' amended to the list by someone because they think leaders ought not to be this way. I think it's misunderstood. I think most, even 'tough guy' leaders are fine with weakness, it's a matter of how it's displayed. You can cry, but not on Television for god's sakes; it's not the 'crying' that's weak, it's the evocation of sympathy or empathy from others, a form of emotional grovelling that's the issue.

"Moralistic whistleblowing" - like shaming, cancel culture? So yes, it's possibly a sign of something, but possibly not.

I think this is a great article - and all of these things 'can be signs' of bad leadership but are often not. Every point probably needs a counter point, I think a lot of the behaviours of leaders are misunderstood.

I've been very fortunate to have a lot of great and demanding leaders and see many of the supposed 'negative points' in them, so I'm wary of promoting such a list without a whole load of caveats and contextualisations.
Yeah, in fact, if you have the $99 account you don't even really need AltStore, you can just download the IPA files you want and sign them manually (with Xcode or if you want a less clunkly solution, iOSAppSigner or AltDeploy or a tool like that) and they will last for a year, which is certainly not too much of a hassle to have to resign.
Linus Tech Tips- PC Secret Shopper:2020 [video]
Assuming for the sake of argument that light social criticism in response to one's voting preferences being publicly known is always a good thing, can you suggest a means where someone can be exposed to this alone, excluding all the other potential abuses sketched in the comments above? I don't think it is possible.

Added to that, it could lead to 'always on' political discourse, which tends to be divisive and disruptive. This is the reason that companies prohibit political discussion in the workplace, or family get-togethers can become nightmares when strongly opinionated relatives clash.

It also excludes the possibility of agreeing to disagree, which is based on an acknowledgement of human fallibility, that people have intrinsic worth apart from their opinions, and that a diversity of opinions may be overall more beneficial than strict uniformity.

Embarrassing to be Dell.
> Nothing in there to suggest Trump was involved in anything

No. But so many members of his immediate circle are named as being involved.

> we know now that the infamous Steele dossier was bogus

This is a weird thing to say. The Steele dossier was presented as a set of unsubstantiated claims which required further investigation.

Disproving a limited number of them (eg, Michael Cohen doesn't seem to have been in Prague when one of the claims said he was) doesn't show much except that specific claim is unproven.

Additionally, many of the allegations have been proven!

Notably - and amusingly - the "pee tape" part of the dossier hasn't been disproved at all. Given the huge amount of attention that has gained one would think holes would have been found by now. The Mueller report actually adds some weight to this story, noting how a Russian associate of Cohen had claimed to have "stopped the flow of tapes" from the owners of the hotel Trump stayed in.

> required a pretty obtuse workaround from AltStore on macOS where it injects into Mail.app as a plug-in

Why are people still putting up with Apple? People who can figure out such tricks are smart. Why are they still customer to a company that has shown to be hostile to the freedom they want to assert? GNU/Linux is getting better by the day.
In the US around the late 80's we could buy a DTMF dialer from Radio Shack and change the oscillator crystal to a different value that would enable the device to produce the same tones as the $0.25 quarter sound that a payphone would make when you dropped a coin into it. That was a lot of phun.

"war dialing" was using a computer to repeatedly dial random passcodes on a PBX or similar system to try to make free calls. A commodore 64 was used quite a bit for this, dialing all night long you'd wake up to about 5 or 6 valid codes that you could then use for about a week to dial BBSs all over the planet for free.

There were plenty of other ways to get free phone calls. It was a really interesting part of the 'underground' of computing back in the day.
I have nothing against honey - I enjoy it as much as anyone else.

My point was more that this honey specifically costs far more than normal honey (or even other boutique honeys with a unique flavour) seemingly just because it has the marketing cachet of being 'anti-microbial', which as far as I can tell doesn't seem to be actually beneficial in any way.
AFAIK they did block that with the Big Sur rewrite of the Mail app--the Big Sur-ready beta of AltStore requires you to temporarily disable SIP/AMFI and patch the operating system to get access to the account.
Wrong Zimmermann. :)

??? This is the Council of the European Union, which is the relevant cabinet members from the national governments. You vote out your representative in, say, the Environment Council, in exactly the same way you vote out the national Minister of Environment (or equivalent) in your EU country, because it's literally the same person.

Confusingly, there's also the European Council. You vote out your representative in there by voting out your your head of government (president, premier, taoiseach etc.), because again, it's literally the same person.

And if you're talking about the commission, which seems to have little to do with this, you vote them out by voting in different heads of government (again) to nominate different commissioners/a different president, and/or different members of the European parliament to not confirm them.

it isn't really a local shell. As they describe it, it's an x86 interpreter, and therefore all of the code you run is sandboxed and isolated from the OS the same way as a Python interpreter would be. Python would let you make a network request, pull code down, and exec() it, so this doesn't really seem that different.
I've never really understood that quote. Do you happen to know which of his works it is from?
That is a hell of a lot of money. Has AltStore been around that long or did that come from his work on the emulators?
While Murdoch holds and supports the spread of staunchly conservative views, I don't think he wants to go down in the history books as attempting to plunge the US into dictatorship.
UHK Keyboard Config-App Gource Visualization
Great idea, and nice execution on this initial prototype.

My biggest fear is that the effort of providing feedback is huge, and that only specific people are so open in receiving feedback. I'd venture to say that the ones in need of feedback are less likely to sign up for a service like this.
As far as I can tell there's no difference between a "personal" Github account and any other.
No, but it's a false sense of security for users. Nothing stops me from just using a separate camera to take a picture of the screen.
It's borderline 'conclusive' because there is literally no material difference between 'security' on either system, ergo, it cannot be a material choice for 'selection'. Only the 'appearance' thereof.

Moreover, I really don't think Apple users in any conscious way are into this - I have never in my life heard a single user hint at this.

If you were to ask Apple users 'If you could have a bunch more apps right now, that you do not have because of Apple's closed model, and that having those apps would in no way affect the security or integrity of your device' - would they say yes?

Of course they would.

This is getting absurd - the 'restrictions' on Apple, while based on some degree of legitimacy, are also, unambiguously a vector for them to pursue leveraging the control they have on their platform to make money.

This isn't conspiratorial, my gosh, this is exactly the kind of position every business wants to be in, it's like the 'whole point'. They can milk their dominance and suck profits out of adjacent sectors and cover it with some other related policy? It's 'business gold'.
I disagree, otherwise we end up down in the rabbit hole of things like microsoft's "shared source" BS. Where terms loose meaning.

Its not just OSI either, its just most explicit there. This idea is also incompatible with DFSG and FSF definitions. It simply isn't FOSS to have license terms only apply to people you like. Either its Free for everyone or you are making glorified shareware/freeware.
Face is more related to honour, but its very hard to define.

I think giving a gift to prove to someone that your rich is not giving face (that would be if the gift is freely given without the intent of proving your wealth), but rather taking face or in western terms, showing disrespect.
Vscode feels like kate done right, even in spite of being a webview app. With the arrival of all these extension-powered webview text editors, I don't see kate as becoming relevant beyond being bundled with KDE.
This is an idea from the council of ministers. It's gotta get past MEP's, until then it's just a shitty idea.

(FWIW, the person--me--who actually developed and maintained all of the open source application signing code that AltStore continues to use was making negative thousands of dollars a month from just hosting AltStore's predecessor, due to... and this is clearly on me... having no revenue model from it, and so had to largely stop working on it and get a "day job" outside of the jailbreak ecosystem. I'm really am OK with Riley making money for the AltServer and Mail.app hacks, but $13k/mo feels somewhat extreme? edit: OK, someone else in a sibling comment to this one noted that he also has emulators as a big part of his Patreon. I'm much happier mentally modelling that the vast majority of the people giving him money are interested in those ;P.)

Personally my brain does not work well with remembering
specific facts, I always admire people who can recall so
easily.

Well, aside from Alex's masterful job of hosting, that's the brilliance of Jeopardy.

It's "trivia", but it does not thrive on facts that may be memorized by rote, such as "in what year was Napolean born?" or some such thing.

Notice that the "answers" are referred to as clues; it is really a game of inference and connection-making.

Here's how you play: you think about the clue, and think about the fact that nearly all of the correct responses are things you have heard of.

For example, if the clue is, "This New York Yankee once said: [insert amusingly mangled malapropism here]" you can think: well, there are perhaps ten New York Yankees who might be considered household names to the average middle-aged American. But only one of them is known for malapropisms: Yogi Berra. So, it's probably him, even if you've never heard that particular quote. And the show stays honest to this unspoken conceit: they will generally not try to "trick" the player.

It's not a test of whether or not you memorized quotations by baseball players, or read a book about Yogi Berra. It's a test to see if you can make that connection.

You can see the contestants on the show making educated guesses like this, frequently, usually multiple times per game. Again, that's why it's also a game of wagering. You are not stating unequivocally that you know the correct response; you are essentially assessing your confidence level in your response.
