Both sides feel like the site is dominated by the other side, to a degree in proportion to the intensity of their own views.

This is from a reply they made to a comment on the article: "Hi, you are right, we take available sensors and just change their shape before packaging. It makes it a plug-and play product, with no need to have a specific PCB development."
By default where? I think it comes with coreutils, so for instance it'd be pretty hard to get a Debian installation without it, but maybe you have a more exotic system?

That's not a naive question at all, and the answer is that they can't.

Cows don't have little nuclear fusion reactors in their rumens, producing carbon from other elements, nor do they eat fossil fuels.

Every atom of carbon "emitted" by a cow was taken from the atmosphere by a plant, likely a year ago at most. Now, methane is a more potent greenhouse gas than CO2, but it breaks down over time. The cycle can be perfectly "sustainable".

Much of the land in the United States that is currently occupied in grazing cattle was formerly inhabited by vast herds of American bison, an animal so genetically similar to domestic cattle that they can actually interbreed, yet the methane emissions from the bison didn't bring on a global climate crisis. Why not?
The difference is that Apple is not a government.

Sure, totally reasonable. Having a small percentage of people get them for free wouldn't really throw this scheme off when the goal is to reduce waste over the entire population.
Making noise about issues helps them getting fixed at several level. If people are aware, they can factor it in their purchase decision, they can get some support for some regulations, good publicity is an incentive for some companies to behave, etc. Mozilla is just encouraging people to support this type of initiative, it does not mean that Apple is bad just because they do something that their users like.

The language here is getting a little squirrly. "Can't be a hypertext" is too restrictive. "Isn't a hypertext" is how I would say it.

JSON as JSON isn't a hypertext in the same way that XML as XML isn't a hypertext. XHTML is a hypertext based on XML. (HTML itself isn't proper XML.)

There are hypertext specs based on JSON, such as: https://json-schema.org/draft-04/json-schema-hypermedia.html

But, without clients that treat the data as a uniform interface, it's all mostly pointless, which is why most JSON APIs stop at Level 2 of the Richardson Maturity Model, and why things like GraphQL are becoming more and more popular.

In the original model of the web (which is what Fielding was describing w/ REST) where HTML was being delivered to a browser, the uniform interface works: a browser has no idea what the HTML document means but can render it to a form that the human looking at it can make sense of.

“Can you define what a social network is then?“

In my view, we’re talking about a term which is in general usage in the mainstream media.

It means things like Facebook and Twitter, but obviously others like Instagram, Gab, etc.

These all seem to enable public discourse of one kind or another.

Private 1-1 messaging platforms and merely social features - e.g. an Apple Music family plan, seem to have very little to do with this.

Just because a feature involves more than one user, it doesn’t become a ‘social network’.
That was changed in 2018. They no longer have this as part of their "code of conduct".
This is helpful, and something I agree with mostly. Of course the difficulty is what you nodded towards in point 4: "Do the one thing the modern world discourages you from doing and slow the hell down". We lead busy lives and need to digest news quickly. It helps when you have a few voices from different domains that you trust, where you can let your guard (relatively) down.

The other thing that is helpful is your reminder to cross reference sources with no vested interest. The conspiracy-mongering journalist has a vested interest in his/her narrative looking convincing and will have a link to his merch site at the bottom of the article/vodcast/podcast.

I don't see why not. The EU's GDP is almost as big as the USA's, and the EU has plenty of educated people who understand the relevant technologies.

> As such, the only reasonable thing to do is to slowly ween ourselves off American tech in favor of letting our our own grow, just like China did.

Yes. This needs to be done not just for web services and social networks, but for the whole technology stack including chips and operating systems.
App stores charging 30% are a majority of the EU market and Apple is a large part of it. EU tend to regulate such price fixing schemes when they get large enough, see for example credit cards.
Easy to convince stakeholders.

When you donate a sizable amount to an open source dependency, you get clout with the devs of that dependency, it's easier to rely on them for support if you need it. You can expect them to care more about the bug reports you send in vs. other people, etc.

In addition, you ensure that the project is healthy, less likely to have serious bugs and issues that could destroy the value of your firm, etc.

This is also why many open source developers sell support contracts or paid support in any shape or form.

Also, the election was highly political. (I mean, even more than a regular election.) You're going to need to take some steps, not just against financial cheating (my first paragraph), but against political cheating (falsified results).

For me, coming to the realization that less social contact causes less stress and anxiety was a game changer. I struggled on and off with mental health issues for a good chunk of my adult life. I found myself constantly in situations that were triggering or exhausting, and I couldn't understand how "normal" people managed to survive without falling apart. At some point I realized I could just give up trying to do "normal" things and actually that didn't make me a bad person.

I divorced and didn't bother looking for a new partner. I stopped going to weddings and birthdays and other social events that had always stressed me out. I didn't become a hermit - I still go out to events that interest me and happily engage with strangers, I'm not worried about interacting with colleagues or customers in a work environment. The difference is that now social interactions are on my own terms, there isn't any pressure to appear or to perform in situations that I'm not interested in or that I have no contractual obligation to fulfill. It's let a massive weight off my shoulders and given me a much more positive outlook on life. I don't take any mood medication any more, I don't see a psychologist, my emotional health is so much better.

I've often wondered if this means I am an introvert. I don't hate other people - on the contrary, I always try to be kind and respectful, and I try to see the humanity in people, even those who hold different views to me. I care a lot about society and the future of our species and our planet. I just don't feel a need to have social interactions in these tight-knit groups, having realized that they were the source of pretty much all my emotional struggles.

One thing I do think is important to note is that this is somewhat of a privileged position to be in - things would be much harder for me if I were in a position where I needed to depend on familial or tribal support for survival. The longer I live like this, and meet other people who feel the same way, the more I've become convinced that a universal basic income is important, since it liberates people from having to be involved in social structures that might be harming their mental health. On the other hand, would deemphasizing family in a broader scale cause more loneliness in society? The article suggests lonely people are at higher risk of dementia, so is this actually a bad direction for society to take? It's interesting.
How so? It's not like Google had any contractual obligations; if they made a change that was incompatible with neverwhere, then neverwhere would just be stuck, wouldn't they? Unless you mean that Google intends to do something user-hostile, but then there's nothing stopping another Chromium OS derivative from coming along.

I admittedly haven't read the article yet (I'll carry the shame until my dying day, etc), but does it take into account that we've had a lot more unrest than usual this year? Even without an uptick in authoritarianism, I would expect more journalists to be arrested in a year with lots of riots and protests against the police than in a calm year. Specifically, you have record numbers of journalists working in close proximity to police officers who (warranted or not) are working long hours with people shouting in their faces (let's say, "conditions for which they're inadequately trained").

Maybe you'll argue that it's authoritarianism either way, and maybe you're technically right, but a top-down directive to arrest journalists sounds a lot different (and scarier) than the situation I described above.

It's not just mental health that the ketone diet could contribute to, but other aspects of immunity as well. A recent paper showed that a normally-dormant subset of T-cells was activated during ketosis, and that this led to protection of mice from the influenza virus:

Ketogenic diet activates protective γδ T cell responses against influenza virus infection.

https://immunology.sciencemag.org/content/4/41/eaav2026
The diet is only a small part of a given lifestyle, so we can't just boil down the French or mediterranean lifestyles to simply a (stereotypical) diet, rather than looking at all the factors.

It matters how much of that stereotypical food you eat, and the totality of the ingredients.

Plus how sedentary people are, how many snacks they eat outside of meals, hobbies, work, and a whole host of other factors.

The general scientific consensus is pretty clear that saturated fats are unhealthy, trans fats are the worst, and dietary cholesterol seems to not impact serum cholesterol. Science marches on,
That is very cool of you to do, and I'm sure goes well appreciated!
> May 2020 meta-study on pandemic influenza

That's probably quite important if you are trying to control pandemic influenza, but SARS-COV-2 isn't influenza. Different pathogens have different characteristics, and thus different responses to protective measures. AFAIK, most influenzas are much more prone to airborne transmission than SARS-COV-2, where the main concern is droplet transmission (though some airborne transmission seems to occur), against which masks that are ineffective against airborne transmission can be quite effective.

You wouldn't judge the value of condoms in preventing the spread of AIDS by studies of how effective they were in preventing the spread of the flu, either.
I think you may want to reexamine things. What you describe is just about the last cause for concern about ocean plastic pollution. You should look into it a bit.

Of the supposed total 5.25 Trillion pieces of plastic or 269,000 tons in the ocean[1], apparently 90% of that comes from 9 rivers, 7 in Asia and 2 in Africa[2]. And the rest of the world, essentially all of the Americas including the immensely plastic polluting central American rivers, Australia, and all of Europe only contribute 10% of ocean plastic pollution.

This is a huge area for disruption IMO. Using a Snapdragon chip plus an FPGA/ASIC to translate SLVS-EC to MPI and buying a sensor would allow for a camera with much better performance characteristics possibly even at a lower price, and the programmable hardware would open up an insane amount of possibilities and allow for incredible value.

If anyone wants to consider doing this, shoot me a message.

As an alternate perspective, that >100% of beds can be occupied by people with COVID could terrify you. People in gurneys lined up along hallways, PPE running low, overflow tents in the parking lots, nurses WAY over ratio handling more patients than is safe, doctors burned-out and scared.

So, any patient in a hospital that tests positive should be going into a negative-pressure room so that the hospital doesn't become a super spreader event. When you get too many patients, it becomes impossible to actually do that, and it gets kind of scary both for people with non-COVID issues, as well as the staff. Doctors, and nurses, and ER techs, and social workers, and respiratory therapists, and security, and janitors, and radiology techs, and CNAs aren't disposable.

The other issue is that you need doctors and nurses to run the ICU. Critical care physicians and nurses are in high demand all over the country right now, and LA may not be able to double their number of ICU specialist staff on a week-by-week basis.

Sweden has a universal, socialized healthcare system, so they are able to allocate resources nationally based on demand. In the United States, it's a checkerboard of private, nonprofit, and county facilities, each with different structures, policies, health record systems, profit sources, etc. so planning and coordination becomes very complex.

Again, the order does not prevent people from going outside, there is a long, long list of exempted activities in the actual order.

I have turned this problem over in my head a lot, and I really can't think of a good alternate policy approach specific for the highly dense urban setting of LA city proper. I don't have a good answer along the lines of 'this is what they should be doing instead.'

Thank you for this! I have been working at the same company for 8+ years, and I have accumulated a lot of stuff over the years. I have trouble finding anything these days. The stuff I /can/ find is because I have multiple copies sprinkled in different directories.

After reading this post, I have started to organize my documents and projects according to the description. I feel like this is going to be helpful not only so that I can find what I'm looking for, but so that I don't have 4 copies of every giant source code repo taking up my disk space.

I do have one question: in the examples, the category shows "40-49 BlahBlah", but the subcategory goes "41 Taxes, 42 Expenses, etc." Is there a reason why X0 is skipped? Is this so you have room for something you might have forgotten?
They're nice views, I entertain myself that way sometimes, too.

But they all fall apart at the first meeting with the police, especially when you're the suspect. We're powerless.

And that's "just" the police, the military is the actual force of a government and they're absolutely not keen on listening to your philosophies. It's an interesting world, for sure.
Sometimes it helps knowing a source is biased. Reading National Review, for example, allows you to assume the opinions held are relatively conservative. Reading the Bulwark, you know there is a progressive bent. Proceed with your own thoughtfulness therefore in comparing the two. We as consumers/readers never read an article without bias either.
