Yes, I was thinking just the admin interface with it's DNS not listening to the outside internet. What I see as the biggest risk (other than from other exploits for any web service) is that an attacker could change where DNS queries are directed after Pi Hole. So instead of e.g. Cloudflare's DNS it goes to an attacker controlled DNS.

Of course there are plenty of details, but my question was just broad strokes: is having your DNS changed for your network (or whatever else you think one can do with access to the admin panel) a huge risk? The scale could be 1 (say your router responds to port requests with denial rather than silently timing out) to 10 (you turned on ssh with root access and no password set).

When one side or another wants/gets to control the totality of life, including morality in the abstract (aside concrete actions) and what are "good ideas", that's the endgame.

That's regardless of whether this control falls under direct state power (as in China) or is shared between state and private corporations (as in the US).

That's also regardless of whether the control is total and absolute or not. It's enough that it exists as a presense to stiffle thinking freedom and social expression.

I understand the words just fine. It's the motivation I find incomprehensible. In particular:

So what? That's what vacations are for. The whole point is to miss things. It's good for both the person and the organization to miss things. "The graveyards are full of indispensable men."

There's some unstated motivation behind the post. But whatever it is makes no sense to me. The options I can think of fall in a range from absurd to self-defeating.

I am really trying to understand your perspective on this, because it's so obviously not true. Companies are regulated by the government and limited with what they can do in a lot of different ways.

Net neutrality is a form of regulation that I am advocating for - and it sounds like you're in support of it too which would seem to contradict this.

I was looking at some of your other comments on this subject and saw you posted this one day ago:

>Maybe Cloudflare et al should also be required by law to serve everyone regardless of content.

You're advocating for regulation of tech companies here too.

Those are neither here, nor there. It's not a question about whether the South wanted to continue slavery, or the North wanted to end it.

It's a question about whether the North's motive was slavery (as a moral/just cause), or other considerations (like state control, economic competition), to which slavery was a secondary effect they didn't want to leave to the South.

Well Gumroad, the storefront he's using charges 5% or 3.5% + $10/ month so unless you are earning more than $1m/ year you are only saving 10-11.5%. Plus you have to host your own code which is another (very small) fee.

You also lose access to some of Apple's cloud service like Sign in With Apple which some customers prefer (self included). There are also some additional sales just due to being in the App Store.

Which is to say, the getting rid of that 15% fee isn't a slam dunk. Even before the Apple Tax cut, many developers chose to use the App Store even when the fee was 30% for good reason. I suspect if you are earning $900k in the App Store and launching a new product the math gets quite weird.
Yes!

I would love to see a benchmark of hyper vs ipfs. Anecdotally, hyper is faster and more user-friendly.

Hyper suffers from a branding problem (it's a direct evolution of dat; changing the name didn't help). But it has a strong case for being the best technical solution.

> Just scroll past if something isn’t nice or offends you.

It's easy to dismiss this argument as it's obviously weak (it doesn't make any sense) but it sure seems to be a popular thing to say. Why do people think their right to act any way they want supercedes the right of others to not have to put up with trolls and jerks? Do these people have social problems, are they legitimately not smart enough to see the problem, or what is it?
This poll found that 33% of Americans believe alien spacecraft have visited earth: https://news.gallup.com/poll/266441/americans-skeptical-ufos...

So while most people don't believe this stuff, it's not exactly fringe either. That's maybe a hundred million people who believe aliens are coming to earth, while Heaven's Gate was 41 people. Using belief in UFOs as the basis for a religion has happened a few times, but it's very fringe.
Depends. Not every part of the world has the same culture, and it didn't suddenly become OK to be gay everywhere on some specific date. In the 1960s, it was probably much more OK to be gay in say, San Francisco than in Detroit.

In the 1960s, I believe SF did have much more of a live and let live attitude than much of the rest of the world, but IMO, SF is now a not really tolerant place anymore. There's very much a dominant narrative being imposed by the big silicon valley players, but culture does change over time. If you try to enforce certain political ideas and suppress others, you inevitably give rise to some kind of counter-culture, it seems.

"RE DR LEON DAVIDSON X LEON DAVIDSON [REDACTED]

DR LEON DAVIDSON IS ON OUR BACKS AGAIN. HE WANTS A VERBATIM TRANSLATION OF THE "SPACE" MESSAGE AND THE IDENTIFICATION OF THE TRANSMITTER FROM WHICH IT CAME. YOUR ATTENTION IS CALLED TO [ILLEGIBLE]-ETTER TO DAVIDSON FROM WALLACE W ELWOOD X WALLACE W ELWOOD, CAPTAIN, USAF X USAF, ATIC X ATIC, DATED 5 X 5 AUGUST 1957 X AUGUST 1957, IN WHICH ELWOOD TELLS DAVIDSON THE MESSAGE WAS IN IDENTIFIABLE MORSE CODE AND FROM A KNOWN US X US LICENSED RADIO STATION. THIS WAS INTENDED TO SATISFY DAVIDSON THAT HE DID NOT X NOT IN FACT HAVE A SPACE MESSAGE. HE IS NOT X NOT SATISFIED AND EXPLAINS THAT THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE SOUNDS ON THE TAPE RECORDING OF THE MESSAGE ARE NOT X NOT MORSE-TYPE. CAN YOU OBTAIN FROM ATIC THE MESSAGE TRANSLATION, AND THE TRANSMITTER, SHORTLY: WE'D LIKE TO DISMISS THIS MAN ONCE AND FOR ALL. IF YOU CANNOT OBTAIN THIS INFORMATION, DAVIDSON IS GOING TO PRESSURE US FOR PERMISSION TO USE CHICAGO OFFICE LETTERHEAD AND OTHER US X US GOVERNMENT LETTERHEAD HE HAS RECEIVED IN THIS MATTER IN AN ARTICLE FOR SOME SPACE MAGAZINE. WE ARE SENDING BY BUCKSLIP THIS DATE A PUBLICATION OF DAVIDSON'S CRITICIZING THE AIR FORCE FOR CONCEALMENT OF INFORMATION ON FLYING SAUCERS. INCIDENTALLY, DAVIDSON IS NO X NO FOOL AND IT APPEARS THAT ATIC IS TREATING HIM AS ONE IF THEY THINK HE CAN BE SATISFIED WITH A SOP SUCH AS CAPTAIN ELWOOD'S."

My take: Davidson got hold of a recording of an unknown morse code message, and started claiming it was aliens. The air force just doesn't want to deal with him, so someone sends him an official letter that says "It's not aliens." He doesn't believe them and says he can tell by the "characteristics" of his recording that it isn't a morse code type machine. He asks for the official identifying information of the source of the signal, and further, pressures them that if they don't respond, he will use some official letterhead he has to fabricate something for a magazine story. The recipient of the message here is being asked to give Davidson that information, if possible. They further indicate they will attach with the letter a story ("buckslip" is a magazine insert, like an ad) of Davidson's, criticizing the air force for hiding UFOs. At the end, the ATIC is admonished for not sending Davidson the full information up front, as he "is no (I repeat, no) fool," and that the previous sop (a concession of no great value in an attempt to appease someone while not satisfying their actual requests) should not have been attempted at all, because it just made him more suspicious.

Furthermore, after reading about Davidson [0], apparently he never believed it was aliens at all, he was trying to uncover secret CIA experimental aircraft.

>Their economy depended on slavery, not the other way around. When slavery was threatened, they went to war to preserve it.

Of course. That doesn't make it a war about slavery, it makes a war about a threatened economic advantage.

In fact, I agree further with you: the South did fight for slavery both as an economic advantage and as a racist ideology.

My issue is with the notion that the Civil War cause as it comes to the North was about the emancipation of the slaves - which I consider cant. It was about economy and control from the Northern side.

My friend texted me the other day. He figured out my HN account just while casually browsing. He just knew it was me. I’m pretty easily identifiable based on tying up some of my comments together here on Hacker News, as how many people live in Kansas that are software engineers and have a kid with a rare disability.

My wife on the other hand is an active member of the Libertarian party and is much more likely to express opinions than I am, but liberals think she’s a conservative and conservatives think she’s some crazy liberal. She doesn’t work so unless they “came for me” for her stated opinions, she’s pretty safe.
> the right of others to not have to put up with trolls and jerks

This "right" does not exist. Scrolling past stupid or offensive stuff is an appropriate thing to do.
As a concrete example of what you're talking about, all of these plain-text accounting solutions are difficult/impossible to sort the transactions in because their plain-text-ness gives so much freedom.

Then, because transactions aren't sorted, it becomes easier to load up some kind of UI (CLI or GUI) to browse things by-date or by-account or whatever. To say nothing of charting & reporting...

And at that point...the usefulness of plain-text-ness seems quite diminished. It becomes more like a data-entry format than anything else.

That said, I continue to use a plain-text accounting system because the alternatives aren't really any better at this point and often come with their own issues.
That probably means that either they're focusing on the wrong thing (muslims and lefties? I don't know) or that they actually did predict the events and did nothing for whatever reason.

I think an awful lot of Americans have family members on "the other side" even if they mostly associate with their own kind otherwise. So people know something first hand, completely apart from "journalism and social media".

At this point, the people I know who are on the right seem to be basically "waiting for the rapture", i.e. when the global conspiracy of literally everyone in the world against Trump will be revealed. While denying that they are a fan of the President, but both sides are criminal and bad, etc.

Discussing current events ends up being like watching Clint Eastwood argue with a chair. It clearly isn't fun for them, nor are they having any real dialogue. So it feels bad, and you try not to talk about politics any more.

I tried repeatedly with someone I know to propose that, if you don't trust anything in the "MSM", why don't you read the documents that are making news, the primary source when it's easily available? I rephrased it three times or so and it didn't stop the rant.

And I'm talking about someone who is really not that dumb, has a decent job, and is fine to talk to on other things than politics. But I just can't envision what a "serious effort" to break through would even look like.
Maybe I can write a bot that crawls web.telegram.org ever 5 minutes and delete all such chats.
What's missed in that analysis is grouping.

People are now more likely to be performative in a way that is encouraged by identity group.

That would mean some people will say less and some will say more. Overall, though, you'll see more normalized groups wherein being different from that group has a higher cost.

In this way, both the extremism and the self-censorship we see can be explained.

This reply chain is off topic at this point, relative to the original article. But I wanted to at least drop a reply to express that while we and others may agree and disagree, discussions like this that are level headed and illuminating on both sides (I hope) are a treasure. These are the kinds of threads I'd like to see more of on political submissions. It seems most political threads are just people shouting past each other in some weird internet catharsis; neither side coming away with a better understanding of the other's worldview. Even a short 1 minute clip can be viewed so drastically differently by different people.
Their data is being collected, but if not even the wackiest conspiracy theorists care to practice the slightest bit of OPSEC, do you think regular people are changing their behavior over it?
> America is no longer a country where free speech is paramount.

My answer to that is you and your friends have talked up sedition for so long that you've normalized it. And can't wrap your head around the thought that it's actually criminal and always has been. You've gotten away with that because up until now the government hasn't really cared.

Take a note, after Jan 6th they now care.
>What a shit take

What a polite comment.

>It was about slavery. Of course the north wasnt interested in war over slavery.

That's kind of my whole point. The North wasn't interested in war over slavery, and the war wasn't about emancipating slaves rhetoric. It was about the North conflicting with the South over economic operation, interests, and state control.

Slavery just happened to be the way that was expressed in the South, so it became the contentiuous issue, but as a second order effect.

Five years ago I might have agreed with you. I think it's pretty telling though that the techs you just listed have now been around for longer than Angular or Gulp were ever popular (at least according to my recollection). Seems to me that the churn has slowed significantly; people are generally happier with React and Webpack than their predecessors.
Many aspects of data collection, however, are not related to posting your thoughts online. As an example, think about ordering food with Uber Eats and the like. What if health insurers find a way to get their hands on that data, and start changing your rates based on what you eat? There are so many services that can't be used anonymously. Personally, I am using online services less and less because of this.

The Millennium Bridge was altered because the swaying was "alarming" but there's no particular reason so far as I know to think it would have caused structural failure, it's just not useful to have a pedestrian bridge that some fraction of pedestrians won't cross because they're scared, it isn't a theme park attraction.
> It's clear it's Plaid, they use neutral colors and not the bank's, etc.

Every time I've been confronted with a Plaid-backed bank login prompt, they use the bank's colors and logo, the word "Plaid" or their logo is either nowhere to be found or is in tiny fine print, and I run away screaming from that service.
What makes you think they can't attract talent? There are plenty of libertarians in tech that would be willing to work with them, including this SRE right here. I think they had other issues. Perhaps they were just out of their league and didn't have the leadership capable of fighting fires while simultaneously recruiting, scaling, policing, etc. Typical successful startup skills that many people don't have.
Your entire argument is predicated on the notion that cancelling a movement trying to overthrow a democratic election is a slippery slope. This is false; the events of 1/6 has forced people to take a side or potentially watch democracy die. This isn’t a fringe movement at all, there were congressmen taking part in the riot, our president actively encouraged it and 74 million voted for the guy who refuses to admit defeat.

At what point exactly do people start to get uncomfortable enough to spring into action? No one knows for sure, but this seems like a pretty good place.
The way I see it, the people in power try to suppress ideas they disagree with. It's just more problematic now because with technology, we're going to get to a point where suppressing ideas and the people who hold said ideas can be automated.
