Any service you are a customer of have clauses with say that they terminate your service if they want.

Republicans have fought for people's right to do so. If you recall the case of baker that didn't want to make a gay wedding cake.

Now companies in the tech business are doing the same but to some of the groups that campaigned for that freedom.

I mean, if you count all the content they own and you already saw before on cinema or other medias then you're right.

But after paying 1.5 years for Disney+ I think I'm paying 120 dollars a year just to watch Baby Yoda. I cannot find any other content over there really worth the Disney+ membership price.

On the other hand it's really hard for me to decide what to watch on netflix because of the amount of content I'm interested.

Honestly, I think I heard about the website you are using about donations but I wouldn't necessarily put my credit card in there.

It would be trivial for you to also put a PayPal address, which seems safer for one-off donations.

You might also be tempted to put BTC/ETH addresses but I doubt there's many donors that way.
Same question. Especially relating to Signal
This generation realised waging useless wars is not beneficial and it's not a good response to act of terrors.

I agree with this 100%, but also want to temper this with "this is nothing new".

Your hosting/cloud was always willing to drop your ass the moment you made bad PR for them.

This is one of many reasons I think going full lock-in on a proprietary cloud service that you can't ever self-host or migrate to a different cloud in a more favorable jurisdiction is crazy for a business that needs continuity.

Who knows which way the wind blows in a quarter or a year or a decade?

Take it from the porn industry: you have to be prepared to host it yourself one day.
Is something like this possible but in reverse? Not to migrate to WhatsApp, but to export data from Signal to a neutral environment (text file, zip file, database, whatever). I can’t switch to Signal until this becomes possible.

My wording wasn’t clear sorry. I was imagining the whole system morphing, not the company being themselves morphed in public services.

Facebook could be the pRivately owned US social network and the hypothetical Francebook a public service, both exchanging in a federated fashion over some kind of agreed upon protocol.

The UK is likely to fragment, ironically through electoral politics rather than violence, as Brexit disadvantages hit Scotland and Northern Ireland.

I'm not yet willing to predict mass violence but I will remind people that we had an opposition MP killed during the campaign for Brexit.
I wouldn't expect a project like that to go too far, I know of a couple of oss whatsapp clients that got took down, I'd assume when such a component comes online facebook would start causing trouble for them.
Matrix uses bots which bridges services with services like signal, that seems to be the easiest way to achieve inter-operability, though idk how usable it is in practice.

BASIC is another simple-to-implement language, especially if you go for something like tinybasic.

I had fun recently writing something like forth. I'd probably like to try doing it properly next time - using a proper return-stack so that `if` and similar primitives can be implemented in the language itself, rather than in the hardcoded fashion I have at the moment.
Facebook, Twitter Proposing CentOS Hyperscale Sig
PWM is trivial to implement, but you can sell it for real money as a feature. Or, in this case, a "feature". Not that it wouldn't be easier to just wire the door switch into the power rail for the internal lighting, but then it wouldn't also be able to play a cute jingle and tweet Elon Musk when the door opens.

Regarding slow starts - not that it's terribly useful to mention now, I grant, but most incandescent appliance bulbs can be replaced with compatible and much less temperature-sensitive LED ones these days.

Sorry but what does this have to do with anything that I said? I was not trying to make any such distinction between those two acts.

I was simply saying that it's not so clear cut as to whether a baker can refuse service to anyone and they please. The Supreme Court ruled that Colorado was biased against the defendant, not that their anti-discrimination law was illegal.

This is cancel culture run amok. At some point these tech organizations need to provide tangible evidence of bad actors actually inciting or encouraging violence. Until we see that, these acts of cancelling are merely virtue signaling, and are becoming rather McCarthy like.

Not sure what you're trying to argue about at this point.

I'm stating facts here: UK roads tend to be very narrow to the point that it is difficult/impossible to just add cycle lanes, and even new roads or development do not include space for cycle lanes (when they should).

You show me examples in the Netherlands where they have built or are building new infrastructures where cycle lanes are accounted for. Well, yes exactly what I'm saying is not the case in the UK and often it is not even doable (it's not only a matter of building a new bridge if the access roads don't have the space, either...)

Using the official client also has nothing to do with the right to access a particular service.

I think it would be a losing battle for OWS to go after a popular forked client that talks to the official OWS signal servers.

There’s no way Signal is bringing these features, which have been requested for years and resisted a lot (by Signal), anytime soon. If someone’s waiting for these, it’s going to be a long wait, especially if they want to jump ship from WhatsApp this year.

"Specifically, Intel is touting that its new i7-11375H — the top-of-the-line model in the H35 lineup, with four cores, eight threads, and a boosted clock speed of up to 5GHz — offers the fastest single-thread performance of any laptop, matched only by Intel's best 45W H-series chip from last year"

Pure speculation, but I wonder if they're also trying to protect themselves against insider threats as well with this move.
Cancel culture is getting worse. I don't like where this is going at all.
I am probably wrong about outerwear, as much of it does seem logo'd, even the higher end ones.

Uniqlo is one of the few stores I'll shop from because they don't have the the logos and are decent quality for the price.

I guess I should clarify my statement to be that the more gratuitous a logo, the less I think of the quality of the product. For example, I imagine Gucci is trying to cash in on its name, or people wanting to show off their willingness to spend money rather than it being a good jacket.
Maybe focusing on price is not the best metric here, after all when talking luxury items the price has no direct relation with the physical product almost by definition. In this domain of purchasing, "higher end" means high class, not just expansive.

In a sense, Gucci and Vitton are what low class people think rich people wear. Kind of like Trump thinks being rich is shitting in gold toilets.

Of course, this contempt of "tacky luxury" is in itself a form of signaling among a certain class.
True. And one big difference. You don't get to choose to be gay, have a disability or be from a minority or whatever. You do however choose to go to a Capital Hill riot or be complicit in supporting a dangerous man with autocratic tendencies.
CRM is one of the last major software categories that does not have a strong open source offering.

Any CRM supplier that would dare to deal with RNC would be barraged on social media and lose other business.

That sounds a lot like USSR.
I personally enjoy a good story. I think articles like this are about the story as much as if not more than their informational aspect. They are kind of like cool stories you tell your friends. You can see it the conversational sentences in this article.

Especially if it's an article and not a video when I could easily skim to the end to read the conclusion if I don't want to read the story. I feel disrespectful towards the author if I want the conclusion up front.
It's all relative.

This isn't so much a case of allowing a baker to make a gay wedding cake, as that's discrimination.

Agree. I used to respect and defend the scientific establishment. In the days of Covid it seems more of an appeal to authority on what some scientist says rather than actual science. And there are plenty of other experts who are ignored for going against the mainstream narrative.
You don't need a "citation". Off the top of my head, Greece and Italy. Just read the news regularly. The Euro has devastated the economies of several countries, and the fallout has been slowly building for the last decade. You don't have youth unemployment over 50%, lack of opportunity, lack of investment, and lack of control over your future without it having far-reaching implications. The current state of things doesn't leave much (if any) opportunity for this to be corrected. They are permanently indebted. Exiting the Eurozone and reverting to national currencies is pretty much the only answer to fix their economies.

Italy has a lot of very productive industries. But they can't compete with Germany and other northern European countries while the scales are tipped firmly against them due to their currencies being tied together via the Euro. A freely floating currency would correct that and make Italy a very promising place to invest in and export from.

Greece is a different story, and it is not entirely blameless. It should never have been allowed to join the Euro. But the cause of its economic woes is the same: its currency is tied to stronger economies with which it can't hope to complete, and that economic imbalance has caused complete devastation of its economy.
It must be hard, as an employee, to be asked to consider these types of actions at your job.
Did they specifically? From what I understand it was Trump, his supporters, and administration. A lot of republicans hate him and never supported him. Let’s not throw the baby out with the bath water.
Good. It's about time that people start treating the RNC as what it has become: a radicalizing cult.

Next up, can we please ban multilevel marketing "companies".
Agreed.

If I'm going to be the CEO and you (as a board member) are going to expect me to meet these goals over the next few quarters, I need to be able to hire the people I know can do it. It's not in your, my, or the company's interests to give someone already working there enough slack to fail before replacing them and threatening my ability to meet these milestones.
> That it'd come to this is pretty obvious

indeed it's not shocking given that FB were happy to take money from conservative disinfo peddlers right up to Nov. 3rd. It's a shame this is happening but maybe it's time they had a taste of their own medicine in their own country? Because the last time when they caused a genocide in Myanmar by supporting the junta nobody at FB has been held responsible.

There is no such thing as "dirty/unethical" money in their eyes. Sod their mgmt and PR-teams who are playing the victim card advising employees about "how to be safe in a big ugly world".

Anyone wearing FB swag should be entitled to at least half a year living (as a Muslim) in Myanmar while posting their experience with dissent on the platform. The fact that FB sees itself still as a platform that can bring positive change suggests they drew the wrong conclusions from the "Arab Spring success story".

FB is a "tool of terror" in countries which are considered developing. Even in places like US, Germany, UK, Brazil, India etc FB does more to divide people than to bring them together.

A few FB employees now "uncomfortable" about whether their swag is still wearable in public isn't anything the majority will lose sleep over. Certainly not in Myanmar.
Capcom confirms its personal data breach is worse than first thought
> You show me examples in the Netherlands where they have built or are building new infrastructures where cycle lanes are accounted for.

No, I'm showing you extremely old infrastructure (Delft: founded 1246, Rijswijk: pre-historic) that have invested in modern solutions for cycling.

The towns I have picked that are almost exact equivalents for Henley here, except that Henley has not bothered.

[For what it's worth, I agree there is no point in starting out by constructing a cycle lane from the middle of nowhere into a town with no cycle provision - but the UK is 5 decades behind in this aspect, and continuing to fall further behind]
I fixed handling of multiple SIM cards on MediaTek's forked Andoid, which had added multiple SIM support before Android itself did. There were bugs in the MediaTek code but Signal could be made to work. However, the code I wrote to make Signal work looked risky; it seemed possible that it might break something on other phones.
>Apple is making the use of many security functions black or white: either you allow complete control by Apple, or you have little to no protection at all.

I suppose what I mean is that I like how this process produces PMs who are aligned (at least to start) with the majority will of Parliament, since the party/coalition with the most seats in Parliament gets to pick them.

In contrast, US Presidents are elected with zero input from Congress and are often at odds with the House and/or Senate majority.
It has already gotten to that point.

It’s not a slippery slope argument, either. It’s already happened to one of the two most powerful groups in the US. On what basis do you think they would hesitate to cancel you?
Well, yes. People have been complaining that Facebook and twitter will protect certain kinds of abuse while removing other people for complaining about it for a while. It is known that reporting systems can be manipulated by politically motivated reports. That's the side effect of the ongoing culture war; before people showing up at the Capitol with zip ties, it was people searching Facebook for burlesque acts to maliciously report. Or using the "real names" policy against trans people.

It was never going to be possible to be neutral forever in the culture war. Which is why people were asking for Facebook to pick sides earlier, and deliberately, before e.g. the Rohingya genocide.
It appears that mass emails inciting violence and sent from contact@victory.donaldtrump.com were somehow flagged by the bulk email sender, ExactTarget (a SalesForce company):

> To send its emails, the Trump campaign uses infrastructure from a company called ExactTarget, an email marketing firm now owned by Salesforce, according to a Motherboard analysis of the emails. The emails are sent in conjunction with the Republican National Committee, according to the emails themselves. In response to a question about whether the company had taken action to prevent Trump from using the "contact@victory.donaldtrump.com" email infrastructure, Salesforce said it had "taken action" against the RNC to "prevent its use of our services in any way that could lead to violence." [1]

This “analysis” reads to me like:

• someone subscribed to a list

• they received emails inciting violence

• they contacted ExactTarget and asked them if they were aware/doing anything, and ExactTarget said “yes”

The Elon comparison is merely about being a position of relative political strength.

Pre-Covid, the narrative around drug companies was all about inflated insulin prices, the opioid epidemic manufactured by the Sackler family, and the profiteering exemplified by the likes of Martin Shkreli. The industry hadn't produced any truly high-profile successes in many years, and promising to reign in their worst excesses and get costs under control was politically popular.

Post-Covid, the drug industry are the cavalry heroically saving the day. They're no longer an attractive target for politicians looking to visibly battle the bad guys.

They mean northwest Europe. Nobody on HN is tripping over themselves to compare the US to Italy, Greece or even Spain.

At that point why compare to the US though? If the comparisons exclude former communist Europe and poor Mediterranean Europe from then why not exclude rust belt American and Appalachia from comparisons?
The iirc court of appeals has confirmed that merely having a donation link is okay.

So you might legally be somewhat limited in what you can write there (like "donate to me SO THAT I can write more code YOU enjoy"), but saying

is entirely fine.
