I'm not saying he (Jennings) is wrong, just that it's a douche thing to say. I'm not sure how I feel about cancel culture and I don't think Jennings needs to get "tarred" for a tweet. That said, I also don't think he's being robbed of any basic human rights here and knowing this, I'd rather give the (presumably well-paid, relatively prestigious and very public) job of Jeopardy! host to someone who isn't on record as needing to broadcast a message with no known benefit to anybody.

> I'm 38 and Trump is the first president in my lifetime to not start another war. It is a big achievement.

If you were 4 years old today, Trump still would only be the second President in your lifetime not to start another war.

The 34 prior years may or may not change that depending on whether you look at starting armed conflict or starting US involvement in the conflict.

Exactly, we've had a wave of "fake news" hysteria surrounding mostly accurate and true reporting.

People don't need deep fake videos to believe lies, they do it with little to no supporting evidence anyways.
> People who have no interest in these facts often express deep ignorance of the world and people from other cultures and places.

I think this is an unfair statement. Certainly there are facts that are not interesting to a large majority, doesn't mean that they are ignorant. Personally my brain does not work well with remembering specific facts, I always admire people who can recall so easily.

Anyway I do not want to take away from the thread, just a bit surprised at that sweeping statement, unless I misinterpreted it.
Not a single US court has accepted a case for fraud by the presidents legal team because as of yet there is ZERO evidence. Until there is credible evidence stop acting like a victim and pouncing at every conservative forum post making unfounded accusations.
But then social pressure might overwhelm individual choices. It's gonna be harder for people to disagree with the mass, because they then can be punished easily. Given how our current society operates, I can't see this work anywhere at all.

I'm confused. Where in this comment chain does what you describe seem to be happening? The closest I can find is the great-great-great-great grandparent, which states “The guy had armies of white supremacist supporters and advisers. He told right-wing extremists to “stand by” on national TV.”

From my perspective, the key here is that right-wing extremists interpreted his words as code — and he refused to correct that interpretation. From the point of view of the extremists, it was intentional, and that's enough to embolden them.

Even though it was likely the result of a mistake and stubbornness, it was damaging to the country and the impacts are worth acknowledging.

At this risk of taking a bit of a tangent: it's not as if this is the only time his carelessness with his words and stubbornness to correct the way they were interpreted caused problems. In those cases too, we need to acknowledge both the cause and the effect. Accidentally causing damage and intentionally causing damage are distinct problems, but they're both problems — especially when you're the leader of a country.

With no evidence, I always assumed there was a clean cut between jeopardy fans and wheel fans. Not to get political but it also felt as though that separation was along the blue / red divide. Back in the day when I would watch jeopardy at 7, I always had this compulsion to change the channel before wheel started. Again no evidence, just a feeling. I don’t know why, Pat and Vanna seem like nice people, I just can’t stand wheel, maybe because I suck at wheel whereas I could hold my own when watching Jeopardy. RIP Alex.

Please stop spreading partisan disinformation. All the instances you cite in your post are hearsay and are being rapidly being dismissed as such by the courts. I believe the figure is somewhere around 11-12 dismissed lawsuits to date.

However, after the allegations of Russian interference in 2016 and the continued insistence that it's not possible for Trump to lose in 2020, I hope it would be possible to put together a bipartisan election security and transparency bill mandating anonymous paper ballots and automatic risk-limiting audits.
That pricegap is absolutely fictional, the extra I'd have to pay to finance a phone varies from 15% to 0%, probably because the operator is getting bulk/discounted pricing.
Sure. And the fundamental problem of the entitled left is that they think they're standing up for minorities, but often speak over them, just like the right, while telling them it's for their own good, which is a dividing force just like the strawman right-winger in your head. They internalize so much racial shame that they casually walk straight away from being egalitarian, while claiming they never have.
Hard disagree. Blockchain gives a few very narrow security benefits in a specific situation. None of them are relevant for the purpose of election integrity.

Some people are quite cavalier about switching over to computerized voting system despite not understanding the consequences. Resisting this trend is to the benefit of society.
> Traefik isn't that complicated though, definitely worth learning.

Hmm, not sure I fully agree here!

I recently setup Traefik 2 for the first time, to front a bunch of containers. I didn't want to do anything particularly complex: expose services on 4 different ports, automatic Let's Encrypt certificates, strip a prefix for one of the services, enable the Traefik dashboard, and a few other bits and bobs.

For context, I've configured nginx (and Apache before it) a few times over the years, and have an in-depth understanding of networking and HTTP. Still, I struggled to get things working - it was like whack-a-mole; I'd get something working, but something else would stop working! As someone else has noted, it's difficult to Google docs/samples, because Traefik 1.x is a thing, and is configured differently.

I was configuring it in my Docker Compose file, and it's quite confusing - some stuff is added in the command line for the entrypoint, while other stuff is as labels. At some point I also realised that you can't quite configure quite everything in this way - some stuff, like TLS config, can only be done in files.

The syntax for config in Compose files is pretty ugly too, and it's not always obvious - middleware config for example.

I'm wondering if I might have made things easier for myself if I'd put all the config in YAML/TOML files instead, but I think the config for every other container was in the compose file, so it seemed more natural to do the same for Traefik. Anyway, next time I think I'll try config files, or maybe try Haproxy instead.
I disagree. The loss of trust from public is not because the system is simple or complex to understand. It is much deeper than that. Even if the voting process was simple, public trust has been eroded by people like Trump across all disciplines, and have propagated through a large percentage of his voter base - voting, health, climate, etc.

We need to get back to where average Joe the Bartender doesn't need to delve into the election process to call it "FAKE NEWS MEDIA IS TRYING TO STEAL THE ELECTION". We need to get out of the rut of "If I can't verify it myself, it must be false." There are a lot of things you can't verify yourself - the measuring tape you have at home requires that you trust the manufacturer for its accuracy. No one asks for a NIST certificate and proof that it traces to the original standard of a meter. Or the pharmacist who gave you the pills. Or that the money is safe in your bank.

We trust our doctors, our scientists and our institutions. That's how the society works. Please stop the nonsense of empowering each citizen to make their choice of truth - because they would be pretty horrible at evaluating it.

I personally think that voting should be based on physical ballots and ink/paper. Not electronic. Yes, it is painful but there is a physical evidence to every vote, not some transaction line in the database - although we already trust our banks with the bank balance.

I also don't think he's being robbed of any basic human rights here

In some countries, freedom of thought and speech is a basic human right.
For Enterprise Android devices (i.e., the one owned by the employer), the employers always had the option to install device management policy and disable parts of the phone based on those policies (e.h., remotely disable phone of an employee that was terminated). The other evergreen use case is for the parents to remotely disable/control/set policies for the phone for kids.

In this case, the telcos are just using the same device management policy. They can do so because they own the phone (have physical access to it and their legal contacts allow them to do it). I don't think Google did something specific here to enable this feature for telcos.

Note that the iPhones also has similar feature. So, switching is not going to help.
Maybe more than once, to make it harder for scammers to dismiss notifications and pretend they've installed a genuine battery. But yeah, a finite number of warnings, and don't brick the thing.
I got a similar vibe from seeing CSS in the banner image. Tough to take the rest of the article seriously upon seeing that...
Because those A/V transmitters used the same 2.4GHz ISM band as WiFi at the time, there was actually no regulatory protection against this interference - from a regulatory perspective it's just a normal and expected part of using an ISM band where there is no protection. The increasing popularity of WiFi started to really surface the problems in this area, similar issues are seen in 900MHz far less often because it's mostly used with low-power, low-duty-cycle devices.... the same as was intended for 2.4GHz before widespread consumer WiFi.

I don't disagree. However, it's ironic that we're seeing Nazi/Fascist approaches taken by the left, who claim they're anti-fascist. I haven't seen that from the right so far.
> Here's where they are coming from: Donald Trump was denying people's humanity on the grounds that they came from south of the border. He was literally separating children from their parents to scare others away.

To put it precisely, the child separation policy is in clear violation of the fourth Geneva Convention, the Geneva Convention relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War, which also governs the rights of aliens in times of peace. Specifically, Article 38 §5:

children under fifteen years, pregnant women and mothers of children under seven years shall benefit by any preferential treatment to the same extent as the nationals of the State concerned.

The US has been no stranger to Geneva Convention violations but this is a particularly egregious example within our own borders thats also arguably a violation of the Geneva Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide [2].

Coming from a country that lost tens of millions of its people to the war machine that inspired the Geneva Convention, I feel physically sick that people support someone who would intentionally enact such policies. The last four years of gaslighting has made it incredibly difficult to interpret that support as anything but a complete dereliction of empathy.

How do you then explain subsea cables that have been in operation since 1989? Facts don't care about your opinions.

Not that I disagree with the listed factors that limit the lifetime of the wet plant. 25 years is a design target, not a hard limit.
That's a very limited idea of attractiveness you have. For instance, you could say the same thing about trans people, and that might be true among mainstream straight people, but personally I found dating far easier once I transitioned, and find trans people hotter.

Also, disabled people often date each other, which comes with some downsides (like not having an able-bodied partner to be a caretaker), but means you're shielded from that icky stigma and you don't have a partner who's ashamed of you.
Wow. I mean, I'm very sympathetic that people should get private votes, but your description of someone faking their opinion and throwing dirt makes me sort of hate the person in your example. Mark Twain comes to mind. What an interesting way to garner sympathy.
I've seen polls on some news sites in the Netherlands which seem to be 70% in favour of the government actions and 30% against. Seems "the silent majority" really want the government to do "something".
The problem isn't so much coming up with a specific mechanism to limit fishing. Such a tax would work, as would outright quotas backed by criminal law.

It's to agree and to implement any common strategy in a classic Prisoner's Dilemma, where it's beneficial for every single participant to break any agreement. Another difficulty is that the partners that would agree (governments) are not themselves fishing. Even with the best intentions, not all of them have the means to sufficiently police every operator of a fishing vessel.

The silver lining is that it's an "iterative Prisoner's Dilemma". The "prisoner"'s decision isn't isolated from everything, because others will respond in the next round. The issue can also be combined with others, tying, for example, trade agreements to sufficient cooperation (c.f. Brexit).

But the sheer number of participants alone makes it a slow slog. Just look at the problems OPEC has, even though that group is a lot smaller and the activity in question is far easier to control.

So did Trump, so if you are just looking at that and not, say, the Balkans, I'm not sure why Trump gets any extra credit here.

Of course, there's probably some dispute over whether intervening to prevent genocide, either in general or in the specific manner it actually occurred under Clinton in the Balkans, is really a negative.

I just stich my vacation GoPro videos 4k60fps h265 with basic transitions and its the best among all I have tried. And the free version just works good enough for a usage like this. I’m not using any other features but I wish to be a semi-pro one day, but I wish they had a simpler version for use cases like me to appeal to general audience, I have been amateurly editing videos for more than 15 years and never heard of it, or probably it seemed too complex. But its not!
Outrage is contagious. It doesn't help that politicians bait people into getting outraged (Trump on the right, Sanders & AOC likes on the left). Build enough outrage and people will protest, doesn't mean it's justified or rational. It's very easy to get brainwashed into believing that the inherent unfairness of life is somehow a product of 'the system'.

Do you know who gets outraged and 'protest' regularly? Children.

Stop fishing altogether and increase --otherwise dying-- marine life.

Having particular ecosystems in the ocean is not something we can afford to miss. And the current state of over-fishing is the main reason several of them are almost out of existence.

As someone who has made indie Mac apps for a living, it's a tough market.

I've done well and made good money on my own, but launching a new Mac only desktop product these days without a subscription component is hard. Launching one without subscription is even harder, because your revenue is one off.

Apps that are not extremely mainstream are bound to make just a few thousand or a few tens of thousands a year. That is likely not enough to build out a proper app dev team.

Thanks for clarifying. I thought that you were referring to traditional package managers, not language package managers (such as cargo or npm).

I have most experience with Rust/cargo and packaging Rust applications is really easy with buildRustPackage. As a bonus, you can also easily pull in necessary native libraries.

On the other hand, things like Python packages are pretty tricky.

One of the problems is that the Python ecosystem does not have a strong tradition of semantic versioning. For that reason, a lot of Python packages have (perhaps overly) strict bounds. That works fine for something like pip, which can pick any version of a Python package and can typically find a way to resolve all dependencies. But it's harder with Nix, because nixpkgs only ships one version of Python packages (for good reasons).

Another issue with Python packages that I encountered several times is that some Python packages directly modify their own paths (e.g. until recently Huggingface datasets), which breaks with the read-only Nix store.

This is a terrible, terrible idea. 98% of the voting population has no clue how blockchains even work. And as we're seeing in realtime, if uninformed people don't like the result and don't understand the process, they will immediately attribute the results to fraud (this is bipartisan, btw... remember the Russian hacking of voter systems in 2016?)

Election systems need to be simple and transparent above all else, and old fashioned paper ballots that can be counted and audited by hand (if necessary) are the best way to achieve that.

Any automated system, whether using blockchain or the existing electronic voting systems, is hopelessly opaque and serves only to decrease confidence in our democracy.
It’s similar in the UK although when it comes to individuals the compliance rate for self isolation is very low (18 %).
Probably a good thing you don't get to make policy then. Not everyone is able to get enough of an education to appreciate what you have. Good democratic leaders make rules that account for that and preserve the vote.
