-In the good old days (sixties, presumably also earlier) police forces in at least some countries had phone books sorted both by address and by number.

(Source - flea market find, a Norwegian book on the state of the art in criminology, published c. 1965)

Edit: Oh, I just remembered that locally, the athletic union published a phone book with all subscribers in the municipality listed by number.

This was c.1990 - after call ID was an option if you bought a decoder (or was an ISDN subscriber), before Internet phone directories were a thing.

I meant my first comment in jest. I will consider your advice, but I imagine switching from one password manager to another will only certify me as a genuine and eternal password hater. (Also, a password stored in a password manager is something you have, not something you know, so it's completely inconsistent with the principle of MFA. I mean, the reasons to hate passwords just increase as long as I think about it. That probably only hurts the theory of passwords though, not the practice of them.)

>Clearly we can't allow monopolies to use laws intended to protect small players.

On what basis do you make the judgement that section 230 was enacted to protect only small players?

That doesn't appear to have been Congress' intent at all.

In fact, while Congress was debating[1] section 230, Representative Christopher Cox[0] said:

"But another New York court, the New York Supreme Court, held that Prodigy, CompuServe's competitor, could be held liable in a $200 million defamation case because someone had posted on one of their
bulletin boards, a financial bulletin board, some remarks that apparently were untrue about an investment bank, that the investment bank would go out of business and was run by crooks.

Prodigy said, ``No, no; just like CompuServe, we did not control or edit that information, nor could we, frankly. We have over 60,000 of these messages each day, we have over 2 million subscribers, and so you cannot proceed with this kind of a case against us.''

The court said, ``No, no, no, no, you are different; you are different than CompuServe because you are a family-friendly network. You advertise yourself as such. You employ screening and blocking software that keeps obscenity off of your network. You have people who are hired to exercise an emergency delete function to keep that kind of material away from your subscribers. You don't permit nudity on your
system. You have content guidelines. You, therefore, are going to face higher, stricker liability because you tried to exercise some control over offensive material.''

Mr. Chairman, that is backward. We want to encourage people like Prodigy, like CompuServe, like America Online, like the new Microsoft network, to do everything possible for us, the customer, to help us
control, at the portals of our computer, at the front door of our house, what comes in and what our children see. This technology is very quickly becoming available, and in fact every one of us will be able to tailor what we see to our own tastes."

Note that the folks Rep. Cox was talking about, Compuserve, AOL, Prodigy and Microsoft were the big boys back then.

So I'm not sure where you get the idea that only the small players were the intended beneficiaries of section 230.

To be clear, I have no objection if you (and others) think there should be changes to section 230, then we should have a discussion about what changes should be made and why.

I just think we should deal in facts and data and not make unsupported assertions about, well, anything -- especially when it comes to proposed legislative changes.

I don't think that's really the case anymore. You have to separate three things:

1. Using the JVM for its capabilities, like the JITC and GC engines, which are very powerful.

2. Using the JVM for Java interop.

3. Using the JVM for generic cross-language interop.

The nice thing about the JVM especially now with Graal/Truffle is it lets you explore and choose almost any point on the spectrum between "we're totally alien and the JVM is just our runtime" and Kotlin-esque "we are basically Java v2 with perfect interop". Modern JVMs are capable of running languages as diverse as Haskell, JavaScript, Kotlin, Ruby, WebAssembly, LLVM bitcode etc. Obviously if you're coding in C or Rust and running it on the JVM via Sulong, your interop is going to be limited to creating objects and invoking simple functions on them. If you're in Ruby or Python your interop gets better: you can expect automatic translation of things like Java-world collections to a vaguely native-language like collection via the Polyglot interop layer. And if you're Kotlin then you don't even create your own collections at all, just use the JDK standard library.

The point is, you don't have to use the Java bytecode type system to interop with Java or other languages anymore. Graal has fixed that. Your language can have any arbitrary semantics and it will still be JIT compiled, GCd and it can still call into other languages. The closeness of the type system is now a choice you make that trades off ease of use of Java libraries vs whatever divergence you want to have.
They recommend doing it that way, because what else are they going to do, post a tutorial on how to do it via OBS? I don't think so.

Maybe Zoom and MS Teams offer(ed) a better fidelity. For one thing, Zoom lets you share desktop audio along with the screen. In fact, apparently these days, Jitsi can do that too, that definitely wasn't possible when I tried it early last year. At that time, at least, the experience OBS -> Jitsi was definitely much better than just Jitsi. (And note that all of this was in Linux.)

Yes, but this is the entire principle around which microkernels are designed: making the the last critical piece of code as small and reliable as possible. Minix3's kernel is <4000 lines of C.

As far as bitflips are concerned, having the critical kernel code occupy fewer bits reduces the probability of a bitflip causing an irrecoverable error.

If you need your lines to accomplish anything, you can't have variables named like that and then it will look more "cryptic" to some, and "better" to others.

Could someone help me understand what an union could do vs the abuses presented as examples in the article?
In my limited experience, from my parents(not US) unions are mostly some sort of barganing power for salaries in various industries but stop at that.

For example, could a union stop the payout of that high-level exec that was eventually shown the door for harrasment with a good bonus?

After that, they are also mostly like various subscriptions that you forget you have, as memberships require pay. In this beautiful part of the world you would even sometimes pressured to pay and join as if you're not a union member can have consequences that are unwanted.

As other have noted, guilds, especially around movie and television production. The WGA, SAG-AFTRA, DGA, PGA, are some examples. There are some newspaper specific guilds, though some of them are part of the CWA or other affiliate unions.

And of course, some of those guilds have a choice in contract types, staff or freelance. The WGAE, where I was a member and part of the negotiating committee for my then-employer, had its own CBA for our “shop” — but the WGA and WGAE also have MBAs (minimum bargaining agreements) for freelancers, which is the more traditional model for entertainment guilds (though WGAE in particular has shifted a lot of its attentions to staff contracts).

If you take an absolutist, principled or binary view, then most imprisonment is a torture of some sort. It causes severe psychological distress. That's what a prison is. The differences are in the nuance, and you might call those subjective.

This was an extradition hearing, not a trial. This seems to have given the judge room to justify a nuanced conclusion that doesn't extend far past this case. IDK if there's much precedent. If there is, it relates to espionage-adjacent cases. That kind of makes sense. Espionage is different to other crimes. The imprisonment is different, and so is the standard for justice. Closed trials & such. This was also true of these extradition hearings.

I have to wonder though, did all the other stuff relating to this saga affect her decision. The odd charges in Sweden. The party-politic aspects to the US' pursuit of him. Also the "time served" aspect. If he's found guilty, the sentence is unlikely to be longer than the 8 years he has spent imprisoned already.
It is in fact a conspiracy theory. But a small reminder that conspiracy theory doesn't tell you anything about the truthfulness, e.g. that the Iraq War was based on made-up evidence was a conspiracy theory.

That being said: Your explanation makes more sense to me. It is often enough to anger the wrong person to get a bad treatment (well, even assassination). And looking at history this is exponentiated in dictatorships, where power is concentrated on few ppl, who can act with impunity.

AWU includes temps, vendors, and contractors (TVCs), who are not at all paid the way full-time employees are. I'm sure there's a lot of gains to make to ensure everyone has equitable pay.

That said, a lot of work that AWU is doing focuses on values organizing and employee ethics. Structures like this union help balance the power between workers and executives at Alphabet.
One positive byproduct is that union membership is a quality signal for both employers and employees. I.e., as a producer, I know non-union candidates will be less experienced; as an employee I know a movie using non union labor is not going to run as smoothly.

> Obama's DOJ publicly declined to charge him given the evidence

Which means very little - the fact that the US has now tried to extradite him proves that.

> extradition from Sweden would still have required extradition from the UK since he would've been serving time in both countries.

How so? AIUI Sweden would have notionally promised not to extradite him, but there was little mechanism to enforce this.
Some countries (France at least I think) have a constitutional bar on extradition of citizens from their own territory and instead allow citizens to be prosecuted domestically for crimes committed abroad (but according to the standards of domestic law). This is a logical alternative I think although it typically doesn't extend to a bar on the extradition of foreigners to either their home country or third countries so that system wouldn't have helped him here.
What can the trade blocks do? Sanctions would be tantamount to what was seen at the start of the pandemic. Basically cutting your local economy off from the world’s manufacturing. War would be even more extreme.

There’s 1.3 billion Chinese. Their government is capable of being infinitely more organized and long thinking than just about all the others.

Maybe a world war could curb the inevitable sans nuclear weapons. With nuclear weapons...

Perhaps if the smaller trade blocs all rejected vehemently China along with the major it’d be a stronger position. Say in reaction to such actions. The large trade parties could help this by investing with infrastructure and other such programs in those countries.

Possibly hoping for the Chinese people to change their form of government from within is the “nicest” option.
It depends on what type of crime you're talking about. For common criminals, then sure, but for example, most Western countries have laws or constitutional provisions against extradition for political offences.

From the article i don't quite see if this is a worker's union or a group of people with certain ideological claims they want to enforce. The comment about the AI researcher that was allegedly fired for being "critical" hints at the latter.

While a union that represents workers interests is a good thing, I think it would be dangerous to give even a part of google to people with ideological fervor. If, for instance, this group actually wants to and succeeds in turning google into a tool of the cancel culture, things will get ugly soon.

Now that leaves me wondering if it is wise to leave this comment here...

edit:

Just an example from the mission statement:

> We will prioritize the needs of the worst off. Neutrality never helps the victim.

What this means is, not all google workers will be treated equally by this union. "Victims", i.e., persons will be ordered by their "oppression status" and gain preferential treatment. Now it will probably be fun to watch the details in this valuation process (e.g., "is a woman more victim than a black (disabled) male?"), but this inherent categorization of human beings into more and less worth is ugly as hell.
I can understand the philosophical strain between founding governmental principals that say

‘everyones work belongs to everyone else’

and then the practical realities of

‘we need productive citizens to increase our wealth because we are starving to death’

The government will always be an elite group with the backing of violence (law/military). Once it becomes compromised, the injustice will cause those with means to flee.

I think the discussion is missing something though. It is hard to form an artistic community in the middle of nowhere, since many artists work best in a community of collaborators. Is it realistic to move somewhere and expect others to follow? I still think what is required is a cheap urban center. Unfortunately, these are getting increasingly hard to find in the developed world.
