> On Linux (and generally with FOSS software) whenever I hit a problem, if something didn't work, I could be sure that it was not there because someone didn't want me to be able to do it like that.

You must be dealing with different FOSS software than I usually am. Software quite frequently refuses to let me do things "for security reasons" or because "why would you want to do that". It is very tiring.

Yeah I’m in awe that this is considered acceptable that the camera just can’t record video more than 20 minutes for all the money you pay.

It takes a couple of decades before a language has stabilized enough and gets popular enough to spawn multiple competing compiler toolchains. And before all that hasn't happened a standard makes no sense.
> in the language that CS majors use the phrase "Kolmogorov Complexity" is sufficient to encode the concept of KC itself

Wait, isn't that just conflating "language" with "knowledge"/"information"? The underlying assumption here is that the CS major has an association of a concept encoded by the letters "Kolmogorov Complexity".

This is not universal, though, i.e. there's no computation that could derive the meaning behind these letters from the encoding alone. It's like claiming "620" is sufficient to encode Mozart's "Die Zauberflöte" ("The Magic Flute"), because in the language of a musician, the Köchel catalogue number along with the context would enable them to decode the full meaning.

But in reality you would still have to look up the number and the score somewhere so it's not really an encoding but more of a pointer or index. I'd see any technical term that way, in that the term itself is not an encoding, but a key/index/identifier of a concept, not a full definition of the concept itself.
Many walking simulators are very linear and railroad you into doing specific things and going to specific places. An example of this is Firewatch.

IMO the defining feature of a walking simulator is that they have no actual mechanics. Many games tell stories through exploration, finding audiologs etc., but they usually have other gameplay mechanics like shooting, puzzles, survival, whatever. Most gamers see gameplay as pretty essential to the medium.

A walking simulator strips all that away and leaves only the most basic possible mechanic: walking around. Most don't even let you interact with the world or with characters. I think this precludes this game from being a 'sandbox' as the article suggests.

You the consumer might not feel the need to rewrite, but the drive itself has to do this periodically as a matter of internal Flash maintenance. Even Read Disturb (think ram RowHammer) is a thing for NAND. Then you have MLC/TLC technology in conjunction with modern small geometries leading to faster leakage (data persistence) and you end up with failures like Samsung 840 slowing down to a crawl, or older driver forgetting all data after being unplugged for a while, leading to Samsung 840 firmware update forcing the drive to rewrite itself periodically in the background. https://www.techspot.com/news/60362-samsung-fix-slow-840-evo...
The shadow ban isn’t even the scariest part of the thread! The Department of Homeland Security confronted him about a video about police brutality:

> A few months ago I uploaded a video about police brutality. It showed explicit acts of violence by the police, and it was understandably age-gated. The video was appropriate only for older audiences, but did not break any of YouTube's terms and conditions.

> That video earned me a visit from the DHS, who asked me about "Anti-American sentiment" in my videos. That was the first time I realized, wow, I guess people really are monitoring what we say and are willing to try to intimidate us, even if what we say is objectively true.

It’s “anti-American” to say that the people ostensibly enforcing our laws should not commit violence against us.
Protonmail users must be getting nervous.
This added user complexity is exactly the argument for plz, though.
One of the ideas touted is (to my mind) tight integration, in that plz knows how to handle everything. Whereas cmake just makes project files and leaves it at that.
> Isn't that exactly the point? Multiple groups can develop their "right way" and you can pick and choose which way you prefer.

In theory. In reality you just end up having to deal with all of them simultaneously to get your workflow going because you're using tools from different authors who all have their opinion of what "the right way" is.

> As for being "one update away from breaking" this is an issue on any OS, at least with Linux you have the choice not to update or even roll back.

Again, in theory but not in practice. Because of the repo/pacakge manager model that Linux systems insist on using, and because there's no such thing as a separation between 'system' and 'application', failure to update often means you are unable to use up-to-date software entirely. Well, unless you want to set up a build environment and compile your own version of that software, which is utterly ridiculous.

Meh, all mirrorless cameras are like that, it's physics, they're passive, small and extremely powerful, even if video capabilities are getting better they're still primarily designed to shoot stills.

Visitors track down mystery desert monolith in Utah
> What Tesla brought to the game was insane performance for Electic cars

I used to race electric cars in college. It was no secret even then that electric motors had insane performance. With a proportional throttle you had to learn early on to go easy or you would smoke your tires. Almost any electric car will smoke a ICE car, the first lap. Even the humble Nissan LEAF is under 6secs.

What Tesla really brought was capacity (we were still lead acid and NiMH at the time) and the Supercharger network. The battery tech and network are their largest asset. The cars themselves are pretty underwhelming design-wise.
Looks exactly like some of the suburbs in Finland as well. Gives me the same feelings.
Or this is just a container box that was dropped in Earth accidentally. So it's some sort of mass produced cost-cut product.

>What Tesla brought to the game was insane performance for Electic cars

Their software is cool, not sure they pioneered anything in "maps".

But as far as performance, I'm not sure that's true. Electric cars by their nature are fast. People have been putting electric setups in drag cars for a long time and getting ridiculously fast quarter mile times. There are entire racing leagues based around electric drive trains. From what I've read, the Porsche Taycan has better performance than any Tesla.
It does feels messy if you insist on using rest api for your server-side pages (rendering react components in server-side?). Just abandon it and use html template-based system instead, like what most server-side frameworks do (django, rails, laravel, etc).

This premise/statement is misinformation in the west, and true information in Iran.

YouTube has signed up for determining what is true in the west, and it will definitely upset some people, so shadow banning is the best happy medium.

5 Big Picture Trends Being Accelerated by the Pandemic
Its quite clear that canon engineeres or managers are aware how to build it like this.

I haven't even started watching this video and had the same thought of transporting the heat through the bottom.

Whatever made canon made it like this, was on purpose.

Either the concentrated on picture for the most time and realized to late and it would have required rebuilding core parts and not getting it out in time or they will bring out a camera/pro version to this with unlimited 8k recording and with a higher price.

The assumption that a hobby engineer can solve this issue while canon can't, is not realistic.

Based alone on the original firmware approach, i would argue that time or priority was the issue.

It sounds to me that what you are describing is known as olfactory fatigue. A new smell will become ‘normalised’ after a few moments, and you’re unable to distinguish it any longer. That would not work in the scenario that you described since the scent of the candle would be ‘new’ in the context of the normalised home environment.

This is really just the age old "you chose the wrong distro!" argument that Linux evangelists have used for 2 decades now to dismiss criticism.

If parent had instead said that they were having trouble getting some software working because of a system library conflict, you'd admonish them for using a distro meant for hackers instead of one of the "easy" distros.

The point being: why should anyone have to choose between these two extremes? Why can't things be both simple and functional?
Why are all their competitors so far behind in efficiency (Wh/mile or your preferred units), then?

Porsche Taycan is rated somewhere in the high 400s for Wh/mile while the Model S is rated under 300 Wh/mile. The Nissan Leaf is also about 300 Wh/mile with nowhere near the performance of the Model 3 which comes in at 250 Wh/mile.

Either Tesla has a substantial technology advantage or all of their competitors are just incredibly bad.

>>Your first claim so blatantly false and wrong that it's pretty appropriate to assume that you're trolling.

You do realize that I think exactly the same about you, right? To assume that your perspective is so superior, that it gives you a right to ignore civil protocol, is incredibly arrogant.

>>I mean, systemic/institutional racism doesn't exist and/or isn't a problem in the US, what?

You're not providing a counter-argument. Your incredulity at my statement of fact doesn't give your absurd allegation of systemic racism any more credibility.

>you find affirmative action to be so significant that it however substantiate systemic racism in favour of black Americans?

Affirmative action is a form of systemic racism, in that it's racism that institutionized, meaning part of the formal structure of organizations, and accepted by the social contract.

>So that systemic/institutional racism does not include implicit bias?

The formal structure of institutions, as defined by their formal usually written rules, is the best description of their systemic/institutional properties. Only laws and other formal structures can have a systemic effect, and anything institutional by definition consists solely of them.

One can stretch the definition of systemic/institutional a bit to also include the social contract.

In neither case can one claim there is anything except systemic/institutional racism in favor of black Americans.

Implicit bias is not a systemic property, as it varies between individuals. There is also significant implicit bias in favor of black Americans.

This study shows police are 25 times more likely to shoot an unarmed white male than an unarmed black male:

Let me try being the devil's advocate here. With so many content being uploaded, it's better to err and not promote any video that could be an allusion to terrorism, sexual content, and so on. If humans were moderating youtube it would be worse and the amount of people needed would be impractical.

At the same time, the author gets much more views saying his video was censored than if he was just one more video made on the platform. Just like singers would look for the +18 black mark on their LPs back in the 80s/90s.
"The promise of silence" is well said. It may be better than tiny fans, but for pcs you basically add pump noise and move the fan's location a bit.

You can obtain the same effect with 12cm+ fans in a well designed case without the risk of leaking.

People who cheer when "right wing" misinformation is censored, should think very carefully about what just happened here.

And why, for 200 years, free speech and anti-censorship has been extremely important to Americans. There's a reason the ACLU defended nazis being able to protest. Because eventually censorship will ALWAYS be turned on your side. Whichever side you are on.
Sort of OT, but while this is a very interesting use of data, I also wish it weren't solely shared as a Twitter thread.

The Sheriff's deputies came hovering with their helicopter about 20 ft over me in my backyard a few days after they had an issue with me... The whole law enforcement industry in the USA is in need of "re-structuring". They also harassed me because I went to pee in the desert a few miles from the Mexican border (3 different law enforcement agencies came by (well, one was already present)). We don't need to de-fund them (maybe a little bit), but they need better training for sure. Also, I'm white and they were white.
But why is that? Shouldn't the only bar to putting some videos up on the internet be bandwith? We can solve that with IPFS.

The content hosting with youtube is nice, but the bigger problem solved by YT is search. So a video up on a server somewhere might as well be dark unless something can link to it and someone looking for it or something similar can be pointed to it. That search feature itself can't be centralized or else we have the same censoring problem.

It would be nice if a type of searching system could be bundled with IPFS, though I don't know what that would look like. The sooner we have a system where no one can close the gates, the better.

There's nothing clearly about it although the data is certainly suggestive. I hope you don't do science or anything else that involves creating hypotheses and testing them. I'm inclined to think "probably" but the parent comment is at least plausible.
Speaking as a lurker, this seems basically like what people have been asking for for awhile now including here. I remember seeing numerous top comment chains over the last four years (and of course before that but not here) that all boiled down to very eloquent defenses of censoring fringe thinkers.

Who knows, maybe in theory land there's no reason we can't have it both ways. But it seems to me that in the real world precisely the opposite is true. We can't demand increasingly invasive and opaque mechanisms to prevent the spread of misinformation (once upon a time many examples of which would have just been called "gossip" or the "rumor mill") and then act surpised when radicals for our own important causes get swept up in the net. At some point we either have to admit that what we really want to build is a like-minded dictorship or we have to start discussing (in a sober manner devoid of the histrionics and gamesmanship that have come to envelope contemporary dialogues) what an intellient compromise in objectives might look like.
