People have been running Radeon graphics cards with Linux desktop and the open source driver on the predecessor HiFive Unleashed board for literally three years already.

SiFive demonstrates the HiFive Unmatched using a $300 150W Radeon RX580. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVsnnYuvDXI

You can complain that you don't want to spend that much on a graphics card [1] but you can't complain that it's not supported.

[1] cheaper ones will work too
Perhaps they didn’t think it was innocuous at all?
Thankfully Linux never removes support for old hardware, oh wait.
I know some of you wont like my saying this, but the GP knows the difference. Trumpism is characterized by denial and playing dumb. They all know better, but they just don't care. I'd wager $100 GP's mind is not changed by your point, because the Trumpist argument is not in the realm of reason.
Just how vulnerable are those smaller businesses? I can't help but think of unsuccessful half baked FAANG products which failed to kill the competition. Do you have any specific examples in mind?
If you really want a small fully open source router these days, you can build your own VyOS (evolution of Vyatta) install ISO, which is fully open source, and install it on some small x86-64 system with multiple 1/10GbE interfaces. Or install pfsense, which is also fully open source.
Modern elections are interesting because they're so close. I believe they're so close because polling has become nearly a science and the funding on both sides allow a professional process.

That means small mistakes or single bad performances decide elections in a way they couldn't even 10 years ago.

It's interesting, even for outside observers like me (limey brit)
> Would you want the government to force you to host unsavory characters in your home that you disliked?

Google is a company, not a private residence. The government has a long history of forcing companies to host people that those companies would rather not (it is illegal, for instance, to refuse to rent to hispanics, even if you've decided that they're unsavory).

I must say reading with modern perspective the at points gleeful descriptions of whaling was harrowing in a way that I don't think was intentional. 19th century really was quite a dark period in human history, I'd say far more so than the so called dark ages.
The app is not even cool. Is a React Native contraption developed externally.
They switched to it last summer, exactly around the time when most of the vehicles got stolen, by the way.
Before that they were using a different app connected to a white label solution provided by WunderMobility.
But that requires that the exchange doesn't impose KYC requirements when you withdraw Tether. Do such exchanges exist? Are they legal? Bitfinex, which is closely affiliated with the company that runs Tether, actually does not allow you to withdraw Tether without doing KYC. This circles back to my first post.
Your wording was fine. I was just making sure it's not an instance that someone else stood up and you are just another user on it.

I don’t buy the idea that employing people in Europe is so expensive because of these benefit programs that wages are lowered to compensate.

Some of those costs aren’t even borne by the employer.
Especially right now. It's 2 for $5, including Big Macs.
> I wonder whether you really didn't understand this or simply expressed your disagreement as a question?

No, it was an honest question, because I'm having this conversation with you without any of those services impacting me.

My opinion as a whole is simple, the internet is an additional medium of information sharing. We have more means of communicating our ideas (even without the internet) for cheaper than we have in the entire history of humanity.

Never in history have the mediums of communication of the day been required to communicate what you ask them to. Sure, you could print a pamphlet, but I guarantee you'd rather have it in the Boston Gazette.
I find the article a bit hard to follow. What were the actual requirements?
I probably didnt understand all of this, but was the time spent on thinking about this more valuable than using a KV Store?
Really? I would say the evidence is incredibly strong at this point, and it's very hard to explain it spreading this successfully via any effect other than selective advantage. The "founder effect" and "post facto identification" explanations are just not credible any more, given that the explosive growth of B.1.1.7 compared to the wildtype has continued for almost a month after it was raised as a concern, and the pattern having now repeated in at least three other countries with enough data to make prevalence estimates (Ireland, Denmark and Switzerland).

What alternative explanation would you propose?

If the new variant is 50% more transmissive, then to get R to 1 requires measures that would previously have taken R to about 0.66. Clearly that is possible to achieve. But it's also not really enough. Can they get it significantly below 1, and for how long?
> 1. With NetBSD, I can run out of memory with no major problems.

It's been a while since I last touched NetBSD, but I don't remember anything special regarding that aspect.
Re: fractional reserve. Fractional reserve banking without a backstop is dreadful and was a major contributor to the Great Depression. Luckily, we learned from that and created the FDIC. It's not at all the same thing and you cannot consider fractional reserve banking to be equivalent to fractional reserve banking with a backstop.

The mechanics are different too, where a bank loans money it doesn't have and leaves itself with a negative balance until the loan is repaid (which btw, also has to be backed very carefully). They're just printing money to buy BTC and pump it.

Last, they also don't owe you any money or other assets if you try and withdraw. They can say no, and tell you to stuff it. Read their T&Cs on their website.

> That said, if Tether is revealed to be a fractional reserve...

It has seemed to me for a while that they need to more fully compete with Google Workspace (formerly G Suite) and Microsoft Office 365. A big missing piece of that is email, as you said. They even acquired an email startup called Mailbox, but they killed it instead of adding an email service [1]. Every company needs email, and the most popular email services include Dropbox and Paper like products.

Slack is available as a standalone offering and is very popular, so a Slack clone may not be required. For everything else, limiting your customers to those already paying for duplicate services raises the bar. Your service needs to be enough better that it is worth paying for it twice.

It's so bad, there are even companies that handle cancelations by mail for you. You enter your contract details on their website, they print it and send it by registered mail.

This statement omits the fact that Parler's userbase originated from Twitter's crackdown on hate speech and calls for violence that got a fair share of them banned from the platform.
The US government does draw the line at what it classifies to be utilities like electricity and water. AWS isn't considered a utility but I think it's far closer to one than the other companies. I'm personally skeptical that it should be because AWS encompasses a whole range of products, many of which have decent competition and aren't really "basic".

The ability to host stuff yourself on the internet is, however, a freedom I consider to be basic and necessary, so I do support net neutrality and related legislation that classify ISPs as utilities.
> most of my recent posts are no longer discoverable via google or ddg search

Actually, that's most interesting in that ddg and google are using totally separate crawlers (albeit ddg heavily uses bing), which implies that whatever the cause is not localized to just google.
And god forbid you miss the cancellation deadline, you’re stuck with another year.
Because the expensive stuff doesn't sell.

At the end of the day most of these are just toys and it's hard to justify spending $850 on a device that is less capable than a $500 mini form factor OEM box if you're doing something serious.
It seems like we should be more focused on the possibility of this being abused rather than asking if it’s been abused yet.
Working with political groups for social media I have to disagree with you. Obama actually was a turning point where everyone basically agreed that social media is the one true way to keep your base engaged.

Your average person may not be on twitter I give you that- your activist however. They are very likely to be on twitter if not another emerging platform at this point. And the media is much easier to reach with Twitter. Just try getting organic traction on a press release with traditional media without social media. Its painful to think about honestly.
Thanks for the constructive feedback!
best comment so far.
Fun thing is, before rebranding into this ungooglable name, they were called "Driveby", which was way more memorable and easily googlable. They had to add "mobility" to everything to be found. Even on twitter they're "Miles Mobility".

Yes. The economy is broken. Democracy is broken. Journalism is sort of broken. Healthcare is broken. What a world we live in.

EDIT: I even forgot about the climate.
Then they should probably mention that on their page, which only says that graphics cards are being planned for but not currently supported.
> If we believe in democracy, we necessarily must believe that the crowd - the mob, if you're feeling less generous - is better at making decisions than any small group of people

Well, no.

If we believe in democracy, we believe that government must ultimately serve and be accountable to the people.

It's possible along with that to also believe that it is a bad idea for the crowd to have day-to-day responsibility for the detailed decisions of government (if nothing else because of the dynamics of extra-large groups a d the communications problems involved), which might motivate us to prefer that democracy be representative rather than direct, with a relatively small group, that it is accountable to the crowd, making decisions.

I’ve been looking through these ufo threads and haven’t seen anyone address the third explanation. I’m somewhat impulsively replying to you as your might receive this well. Most of the credible ufo phenomenon is likely a psyop. I won’t get into why the cia or other would put forth such efforts beyond reciting the quote “We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false”. It’s “controversial” if William Casey actually said that, but this fills in the gaps that can’t be explained away by witness confusion or delusion, without requiring a belief in some unseen technology that’s always conveniently dangled out of sight. The cia also says they’ve been doing telepathy, astral projection, and the like. The disinformation program is definitely real.

Father of the Web Tim Berners-Lee Prepares ‘Do-Over’
Remote doesn't mean devoid of normal human behavior. Suck it up and call them on the phone or do a video call and take care of it. That is the proper way. You will send an e-mail as a follow up to confirm all the details and off-boarding information. But you should never (under normal circumstances) have a persons first interaction of termination be a text or email. The one time it may be acceptable is someone who is ghosting you and playing games, then, all bets are off -- if they act like a child they can be treated like one.

For reference I have worked remote and employed my teams remote for over a decade, not once have I ever used text, email or slack etc to fire or reprimand someone. I always use phone calls, video chats as the primary means of human to human discussion. I may use slack or email as follow up means on a conversation but not as the first conversation of a serious topic like their employment or job performance etc.

Would you really want your employer sending you an e-mail firing you? Would you like your significant other to dump you via text after say a year long relationship? If you are in the minority and like that idea, recognize most people are not like you and you need to conform, not them (not saying that to be mean, just to help you recognize it maybe). Being an employer is a responsibility to treat people with respect, dignity and professionalism. If I heard a startup or company was letting go of employees via e-mail (outside of extreme circumstances) I'd dismiss them as unprofessional and likely never consider them a serious business.
When and how was this ever different?

Dual citizen here, that's precisely my plan. Just found out a couple weeks ago (from HN) how in the Netherlands and Germany you can request to work 4 days a week instead of 5, for 20% less gross pay, I guess its a smaller cut after taxes because you might drop down a tax bracket. As long as the company has 15+ employees. I partied a ton in my early twenties so I'm early in my career despite my age, but the plan is to live very frugally and buy several 2 family houses in low CoL areas to rent out. Then after 5 ish years depending on if I have a family or what, semi retire to Europe.
I'm not sure I agree. A magic folder that syncs across all your devices is going to be useful for the foreseeable future. Eventually maybe Dropbox dies without real innovation but I think that fundamental concept could last for decades.
maybe you're running a 4200rpm disk and the other person is running a 7200rpm disk.

There's a very easy precedent for this. Just widen anti-trust.

Back when we actually imagined that government could stand up to powerful companies, we dealt with the Railroads with the tools of anti-trust. The situation was almost comically similar:

+ New, hyped technology;

+ Which received huge capital investment from newly printed money;

+ And which lent itself to a natural monopoly;

+ Which crushed competitors;

+ By offering to buy them for high prices;

+ Or by severely undercutting competitors

We already did this, we already solved this problem. Issue is that it happened before any of us were born. So I guess we have to go through the pain of learning this lesson all over again. It should be plainly obvious that we haven't even really started, as evidenced by the plaintive "bUt WhAt Do wE DO aBoUT tEcH!?" cry that comes out every time these companies flex their muscle.

Same here, it kind of validates my feelings about using only platform languages, which means JavaScript, even if with the caveats of dynamic languages.

It was great on the early days, now it has an endless list of configuration of language behaviours, Haskell style, and I cannot really track down what each supports, specially given those parameters.

Having WebIDL natively supported on the browsers would be enough.
