I believe the slowing down of a mob online by means of deplatforming them is a good strategy, and a feature of the system, assuming you're organizing yourself to adequately counter this mob when/if they attack again.

Sure, they feel persecuted for the deplatforming but that's not really reasonable - we know there's less reason in their community than there needs to be (well it's reasoning based on a funnel of lies they've been manipulated with over decades via Fox News, Republican party, etc), but it wasn't their toy to begin with - the other big kids/adults/tech companies were just happy to let them use them, so they don't have the right to having access to the toys that aren't theirs - and it's unhealthy to make them believe they do, which is essentially coddling for purpose of trying to stop them from crying or ending their temper tantrum - but then it prevents them from developing boundaries.

This is a complex situation, it will unfold how it does, I just hope current leadership is adequate and that forces that can be mobilized if necessary are adequately trained to try to reduce the loss of life if the uprising continues - or arguably terrorist acts - due to disbelieving that the election was fair, hypocritically it would be considered fair if their choice won.
Sadly, evolution seems to not converge to a single chat standard.
When I was studying Reed Solomon the other day, I came across an interesting graph algorithm for error correction codes.

Turns out there are tons of graph ECC out there. Viterbi algorithm is one, and LDPC is another. I don't understand them, but clearly graphs can be used in many obscure situations.
Be careful as click fraud could get them thrown off Bing.
Random anecdote on the intangible value of "Privacy" for real-world users: I run a news website with the upsell argument of zero ads, tracking, or third-party cookies and have gained no significant increase in conversions from it.
Their scored system seems flawed. For example, both Facebook and Reddit have the same "E" score, while Facebook requires you to disclose your real identity and to link your phone, and Reddit doesn't. They are worlds away with regard to privacy.
The goal of decentralization isn't to give a voice to people inciting violence, however that is a consequence of such systems when you share technology with everyone - though we shouldn't fear this, we do need to actively and proactively counter it at a higher layer, educating people and helping them heal their closed heart and mind.

The goal of decentralization is to take power away from companies who govern poorly or in a way we don't agree with, so our data and network is mobile, so we can "vote" by leaving their platform - and not buy their products or services or give them our attention to monetize with ads. And then once this fluid system exists with a hierarchy of good, good hearted, well meaning governors - we must then focus on educating and healing the population - where we won't reach them easily in the digital world due to self-perpetuating filter bubbles, anyone who tries to reason with them are ignored or simply ban/blocked to reenforce their echo chamber.
There are products (Terraform, CloudFormation) that help managing without an UI, but they also add complexity, so our point definitely stills stands.
Is that really unprecedented? In 2016 Chicago had 60% more homicides than in 2015. Short-term spikes in statistics with small denominators can be expected. In 2015 Baltimore had 63% more homicides than in 2014.

It seems interesting as an hypothesis, but it could also be wrong.

In the Internet most of the times you don't know who you're talking to, so just in case I come across as rude, bear in mind, I'm not in or from the US, and I already shared my experience studying sociology.
Without having the insight into another's mind that we have with our own, how could anyone make the claim that their coworker's burdens are as important to address than those of self?
I made some comments earlier, and after receiving some noxious pushback I paused for reflection. Now I'm feeling very uneasy about this (not yet posting from a throwaway, heheh).

It is my feeling the combined action to de-platform Trump including de-platforming Parler is foolish and very likely to escalate the tensions, not defuse them, e.g. increase the likelihood of Bad Things Happening That I Won't Explicitly Detail Because I Don't Want To Be De-Platformed For Writing About Stuff That Should Perfectly Obvious To People That Pay Attention To History.

Millions of people were moving onto Parler because TheDonald and a number of well known commentators told them to go there to avoid censorship. Subsequent to shutting Trump out of public social media over what could understandably be construed as a bogus rationale of censorship (especially if one believes the elections were fraudulent), BigTechBogeyPersons collude to shut everyone out of Trump's replacement platform, (and potentially any future option). That's what literally millions of American people perceive. My messaging is buzzing with non-tech people who are afraid the apocalypse is now and asking me what to do, what's going to happen, etc. People are asking me what to do about it!

The blowback potential is off the charts. The chilling effect is over the top. There's plenty of American people personally affected. They are frightened and/or outraged by this outcome. Plenty of people who immigrated to the US from non-free countries have drawn conclusions from this that are quite different from the virtuous and self-righteous moralizing I see commonly proposed here on HN and by "acceptable" social media sources.

The commenter who suggested this would be perceived as a "casus belli" probably hit the nail on the head.
Mastering lockdowns certainly does not guarantee that everyone gets to go back to the pub. Once you end the lockdown the spread just starts again and you're back at square one.

The WHO has been clear in their recommendation since the beginning. Building effective test/trace/isolate capacity is how you control the spread of Covid. Is there a limited and brief role for lockdowns, business closures, forced stay at home etc., yes in extreme circumstances. Long term no.

I am just paraphrasing the WHO here, and of course anyone is free to disagree with them, but they're hardly known as a paragon of right wing populism.

They have been putting out publications which say this since, if memory serves, March (or maybe even earlier).
It makes me wonder - or seems to insinuate to - that Fluvoxamine may directly impact the immune system. The only other alternative is that some molecular structure of Fluvoxamine kills off the virus?
Thanks. My initial question arose where does products like SnowFlake/RedShift falls into this. They seem to be coined as datawarehouse but seems they do the same as OLAP work. But looking at Snowflake docs I read:

"""Currently there is no option similar to an SSAS cube in Snowflake. Once data is loaded into the databases Snowflake allows to query the data in a way similar to traditional OLTP databases.
For data aggregations the Snowflake library offers rich sets of in-built functions. Together with UDFs, SPs and Materialized Views we can build custom solutions for precomputed data aggregations.
For data analysis we still have to rely upon third party tools. Snowflake provides a variety of different connectors to access its database objects from other analytical tools. There are plans in near future to introduce an integrated tool for data aggregations, analysis and reporting."""

So they say, its not really an OLAP.

And how exactly it differs from OLTP? Is a web app OLTP?
The difference between Private.sh and other search engines is that search engines that state they are private require you to trust they aren't logging and saving your searches.

Private.sh doesn't have to be trusted. It encrypts your search on the client side, passes it to the search engine through a proxy which decrypts it on their end, performs the search, encrypts the results, passes it back through the proxy.

The search engine never knows the IP address of the searcher, and the proxy never knows what the searcher searched for.
My dish brush gets really yucky with this method (not using dish soap). Greasy and soot:y. Do you just not care about this issue or do you spend some time cleaning it afterwards?
I like the idea :-)

Could even become something like an interactive search experience e.g. having a button 'remove all search results from this domain' or 'add domain to blocklist'.
This isn't even a vulnerability. Mobile applications should be using the system browser, not a WebView. This blog post is proud of abusing the users trust. I can also make an application which opens an OAuth page to a fake-google.com which looks exactly like Google. I guess you can still trick Grannies with his app.

Finally the author admits...
> Nothing I did would technically be considered an ‘exploit’

and of course, admits he lied about the title and multiple sentences in his blog...
> As many of you may have suspected, this post is not entirely truthful.

IMHO, "great deal" is overemphasizing it. There are some things, yes, but they are mostly smaller, more niche details that are even probably things we'd choose ourselves in many cases.

That being said, there's also cases where Rust does not have LLVM semantics, and that can cause bugs. Some famous examples being the loop optimization miscompilation, and &mut T currently not being marked noalias.
Great article and very clever. Luckily I never use SSO providers to log anywhere precisely because of issues like this. Since Safari remembers all my accounts anyway I have little reason to use Google or something else to log myself everywhere in.
Yes. It's in their privacy policy.

Too cool for school? Signalling and countersignalling [pdf]
"In signalling environments ranging from consumption to education, high-quality senders often
shun the standard signals that should separate them from lower-quality senders. We find that
allowing for additional, noisy information on sender quality permits equilibria where medium
types signal to separate themselves from low types, but high types then choose to not signal,
or countersignal. High types not only save costs by relying on the additional information to
stochastically separate them from low types, but countersignalling itself is a signal of confidence
that separates high types from medium types."

You can't really do random testing on social products because there's no good way to segregate a social network. Too much overlap and sharing. Harm is also subjective which makes it very hard to measure. For example, tech that made people more supportive of gay rights would have been considered very harmful until fairly recently by a majority of the population.

Couldn't the entire P2P part be abstracted away from it, so a chat client could work with any P2P technology in principle?
As a data point, I use a little soap when it feels needed (every few times, usually) and add seasoning when it feels needed (less often). Seasoning remains great (fry eggs without sticking).

These are my most often used pans, and have remained that way for many years.

Fwiw I rarely need or use a scraper or salt while cleaning , I’ll “deglaze” if there is fond in the pan, even in the rare case that I’m not using the result for anything.

I believe there would be minimal practical impact in any case.

In the case of anisotropy of the physical constants, it would have to be so small that to date independent labs around the world haven’t detected a difference outside of the measurement uncertainty.

In terms Of time variance a similar logic can apply. I would also add that variation of the physical constants over the span of a few decades is not very likely in the grand scheme of the universe.

It’s the same reason that nothing in your life materially changed when we switched the definition of the kilogram last year, unless you are a metrologist ;). The variations being discussed here have to fundamentally be below our current measurement uncertainties and our current measurement uncertainties are very very small.
Could people please read articles before reacting?
To put that in perspective, the 1992 Los Angeles riots had similar damage and arrest numbers, and were significantly more violent (63 killed). And that was a single city.
All this blog post does is highlight why you shouldn't trust WebViews.
The title isn't truthful to the content. @dang, can you please change it? Should be something along the lines of "how to steal data from Google accounts." As the author states waaay down in the article, they didn't actually do it, they're merely showing how.

I didn't say that. Just that she celebrated and defended publicly such killings (e.g., those of Gaddafi, the bin Laden family, etc).

EDIT: https://twitter.com/HillaryClinton/status/773545200807534592

(This tweet by Hillary Clinton glorifies an extrajudicial killing in foreign territory, with the opposition of the country where it happened, and at the same time manages to sneak in some falsehoods. The text is: "When our SEALs took out bin Laden, they brought the terrorists' families to safety first. That's American honor. " This is false, since several members of the bin Laden family died in the attack, including women and children. I'm not saying that killing bin Laden was wrong, just that Twitter policies are wildly inconsistent regarding violence and falsehood.)
Unfortunately, correlation between assets and also assets classes are extremely high so diversification ain't what it used to be. A crash can happen regardless of liquidity - at its most base it is just a change in what people view is a fair price for an asset. "I no longer like red tulips so only pay $1 for your bulb instead of $8"

Holding some cash is always wise. One can also keep some funds in 2yr treasury FRN - checking account yields until such a time as rates back up naturally or possibly suddenly if the world questions US treasury issuance.

Key thing people need to understand is liquidity goes out the window in a crash. If you own corporate paper, you know this (or should) and need to be prepared as you won't be able to offload to raise funds to paydown margin needs elsewhere. Certainly, if you are using margin in some way you should consider your cash drawdown needs for at least a 30% drop and make sure you have funds that will be available no matter what lest you have positions automatically closed.

I personaly have some out of the money, very long dated, SPY put spreads. They are long term protection as the value only maxes out at expiration and will be reduced with skyrocketing vol. So they will give me a degree of short term protection but are really designed to survive a crash followed by longer period of relative stagnation.
They can make money without advertising. Selling your search queries correlated to your browser fingerprint, for example.
As I understand it, this is essentially what various specialties bucketed under “therapy” work to understand and practice ethically and safely. “Give all schoolchildren therapy” sounds a bit radical but I imagine there are ways to scale it that would be 100x more valuable than the typical curriculum.

I'd like to think I'm well above 'cd/ls level of tutorial Linux', but I've never said 'etsy', though I recall having a colleague who did and he did have to explain.

I wouldn't spell it out as 'e t c' though, I pronounce '/etc/' the same as 'etc.'/'&c.' (that is, with a reluctantly soft 'c' in 'cetera', since despite knowing better it's not worth getting into every time you say it!)

Thx!

We're bootstrapped though we want to raise one day.

I tried to emphasize that there's no "advices" it's more like myself talking to my-1yearago-self.

We had like a 10-times lower pricing. And MRR of 200$. The pricing we have now is same as competitors.

I'd prefer EU, if it's dedicated or VPS is of little consequence to me. I simply want a box where I can unload encrypted backups is all.

If I can get 10 to 300 GB for something between 5 to 50 Euro I'd be happy.
To me, simply saying "False." with a link is not any colder than saying "That is false." or "that is untrue, see this ___", etc..

I admit, I agree that "Lie." was a little on the cold side. I find that when people blurt out something so obviously and verifiably false that they are either being lazy or facetious which also does not "lead to a constructive conversation". Perhaps if I had the ability to downvote it I would have done that and moved on. Not an excuse, just an explanation.
it's not awful, it's just not very high quality content. the instructions are more or less correct, but she does a lot of triggering things in the video, like not measuring the whiskey at all. if I ordered a mint julep in a bar and the bartender made it the way she does, I would not order one at that bar again. if it was expensive, I might ask for my money back or a simpler drink.

compare with this video on the same drink: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTKC9Ht4Erg

the guy explains why he does things the way he does them and why you might do it differently depending on your tastes. unlike the first, this video manages to be more informative than simply reading its script as text.
The name space is not a problem, in my opinion. If you have a library sdaffj, and you want to release a new, incompatible version, release it under the name sdaffj2, next incompatible version under name sdaffj3, etc.

I somewhat agree, but for maybe a different reason. I think racism probably is a major root cause, but think it's intellectually lazy because identifying it doesn't help much.

Racial disparities exist in virtually every important measure of health (and I only say "virtually" because I don't know them all off the top of my head). Genetics plays a part in some, but the root cause of many is the current or lingering effects of racism: families that never accrued much wealth, communities who had much worse professional prospects so education wasn't as valued, "bad" neighborhoods where towns invested less in public transportation or sanitation. A bunch of ways racism shapes communities.

However, pointing out the racism root is only useful for long-term sociological planning. You also need to focus on the immediate causes. Systemic racism is actually a perfect example of this: even if a system becomes "race blind," the effect of past racism means non-white people are at a disadvantage.
Luckily they don't end up in real courts, because corporations go for mandatory arbitration nowadays.
But that's what I'm saying. The wisdom and intelligence you end up with plus the knowledge of using this concept of preparedness are all to a great if not total extent determined by randomness. For me to exploit this, many factors have had to come together without any conscious input on my part.

Besides, is the first idea even true? Most people who have ever lived were hunter gatherers. The majority of people alive today live in shitty conditions that they are unlikely to fundamentally ameliorate. And if they manage to change their attitude about it, it will tend to be a factor of their innate personality and influences
In practice it’s likely faster than the method that uses polar coordinates due to the latter’s reliance on transcendental functions.

To be fair installing synapse is fairly easy. Media uploads and e2e should "just work". When I recently changed the VPS I was running it on I set up synapse from scratch in about 15 minutes. Of course I have set up synapse many times.

I express it as "people are allowed to be wrong, to be stupid"; or "do you trust people to be responsible for themselves?" sometimes.

Shockingly enough, these concepts have been discussed before; I'm particularly fond or George Orwell's commentary.
There is a quite strong correlation between level of education and number of birth per women. The best way to "control" population growth is to give easy access to a good education and birth control solutions (I mean condoms and the pill). No coercion required.
