Perhaps you should be more specific instead of resorting to vague insinuations, which can lead to all sorts of misunderstandings.
There's something to this. The things people hate about Facebook aren't caused by some user sitting down and typing a post, and in fact that kind of content gets buried in the feed anyway. The problems start with "sharing the story at the top of the feed" and "your friend liked X article which is really an ad". It's a more aggressive version of 90s email chain-letters.
This is correct. The functionality of LOADALL now largely happens in the RSM instruction which returns back to normal execution context from an SMI. In modern firmware, before the SMI handler is invoked by the SMM dispatcher the firmware will switch the mode away from real mode and have its own GDT/descriptors. All this needs to be restored on SMI return thus RSM will parse a specially formatted block of processor context to dump everything back.

Ummmm...
1. Does the data suggest that is true?
2. If it were true, would it support the "unbundling" narrative given that it would be a case of something being part of another bundle?
That probably depends on the scope of what you're looking to archive. If you're looking to make up local backup of your bookmarks folder (as one of the intentions seems to be), probably not an unreasonable amount of storage. Maybe a few GB at most(if you have a moderate to large bookmarks folder), depending on how many sites/heavy the sites are?
A question for those who've been around in tech longer: was Google really the first and "disruptive" user of x86 commodity hardware in datacenters that everyone else then lagged behind? Or was it just a general wave and shift in the landscape?

So, the best C developers would be former Assembly developers. That's hardly a ringing endorsement for the language. Look at XYZ game, for example. It's hardly C since it gets its performance from use of inline Assembly.

C does give you quite good shell utilities though. That's about it.

8.1 million people wanted to use Parler.

I've lived in Austin for just over 10 years and while there are major benefits over the coasts, the downside is the city is also importing the bad things.

Homelessness is off the charts with the street camping and violence that comes along with it. If you're familiar with SF, it's nothing like the Tenderloin but more like SOMA-lite.

In addition, shootings are way up. For context, there were 39 total in 2019. In the summer of 2020, we had 40 consecutive days of shootings. Further, the local DA has also adopted the mindset of not prosecuting "low level" crimes of any theft under $750.

Sacrificing what makes Austin compelling is not the way to go.
> Most of those didn't have large groups just standing around waving signs and chanting -- almost everyone was involved in the violence and destruction

This is demonstrably false, and you should retract it.

Second, it is qualitatively different to riot and break into one of our main bodies of government and threaten the lives of anyone (even if it was just a select few out of the larger whole) during an important part of the process of our peaceful transition of power. To simply equate this rioting to this summer's protests (and yes riots) and say "it's all wrong" is to almost miss the point entirely about what the impact, the risks, and the response to these two things should be.

And while I would broadly agree that most of the content collected here is of angry, mostly harmless (and willfully misinformed) constituents asking for their voice to be heard, what I also saw was:

* Largely unanimous support for attacking the police, breaking and entering into the Capitol, people cheering and laughing at everyone trespassing, breaking barricades. Definitely no signs of disapproval or concern for the police, the Congress, public property, or even the optics of the situation.

There were of course a couple of instances of "don't hurt the cops" but they were completely outnumbered by the "this is OUR HOUSE"/1776 crowd.

* If you just watch the last 2 hours of video - when the National Guard arrived, pushed people out of the building, then off the Capitol, out of the Mall, and so on - the videos turned extremely angry, negative, "f*k the police", "traitors!" etc it is absolutely clear that the only reason you have such a positive vibe about the first half of the videos is because there was such little resistance to their actions during the first half.

If there had been armed National Guard presence there from the outset, this would've been much uglier, without the "waving flags and chanting" you see.

Free speech absolutism was no defense against fascism - the Nazi Party was prominent in both the US and UK, to use your examples, during the 1930s. It just never quite tipped into power, but you can see from the rise of Trumpism that that didn't hold true this time.

(the giant murals of George Washington and the talk about "job-stealing refugees" is particularly apropos given the current atmosphere of the Trumpist faction)

It is obviously correct that once social norms have reached the breaking point that hate speech laws can become a cudgel used to further hate speech. The goal is to keep it from reaching that point.

It is in fact probably correct to say that in either approach once the social norms have reached the breaking point, that either positive or negative freedoms can be weaponized. Freedom of speech can be used to rally a lynch mob, and hate speech laws can be used to oppress a minority, once you have reached the point where a hateful party has widespread social acceptance and control of a sufficient number of the political levers of power.

In general though it is also not correct to say that the US has complete free-speech absolutism. Actually planning to lynch someone, for example, is not protected free speech. The argument for further restrictions is that those lines may not be correctly drawn by our forefathers - why should actually planning to lynch Tom Brown be illegal, but the KKK rallying to lynch somebody be legal and protected, as long as they don't name a specific name in advance? Why should arguing that people should be lynched in general without the specific intention to do so today be protected? There are many places we could concievably draw the line without really impacting anyone's actual freedoms to do anything other than incite hatred and ultimately inciting violence and death.

> Really? How did past revolutions and terrorist attacks get organized? You realize most of world history existed before the Internet, right?

Yeah, of course. Broadcasting means one-to-many communication. Before modern technology, those things were organized using other kinds of one-to-many communication, such as in-person meetings, rallies, and through newspapers and other kinds of publications.

Movements aren't organized one-to-one like on a telephone, because that's a far slower way of spreading a message. It's also an unreliable medium, as the children's game "telephone" shows.

It won't happen until foreign actors deliberately exploit the electoral college by taking actions that harm the GOP specifically in swing states. As long as the electoral college gives an edge to the GOP, none of the reliably red states will want to abolish it, and together with the swing states benefiting directly from the electoral college, there aren't enough votes to get rid of it.

Maybe I've been in Bitcoin for too long, but 2.5 to 44 is cause for this much attention? I guess I'm immune to that level of volatility these days.

I mean I get the amount of security's fraud and agencies like the SEC just waiting to justify their inflated salaries and budgets... but with the level of fraud in the stock market and banks this is likely what they would focus on as it they probably don't have massive lobbiysists in Washington paying for them to shape legislation to match their grift.

I've seen several Gamestops shut down and have going out of business sales for current inventory with long lines, I'm sure that would add to their liquidity situation in the short term if it was done at scale for recovering investments on outdated/old merchanidise. And given that people are less than prudent with their finances and stimulus checks/uncemployment and with so many people with nothing but time on their hands this growth due to lockdowns and massive unemployment isn't actually a realistic turn around after the initial crash in March?

Wallstreetbets is always good for a laugh, and not always a healthy one; the place reminds you why a guy like Trump could be elected and gives actual credence to how the following adage holds true: Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth.

Those guys are like the epitome of of the 'grater fool' business model for the low hanging fruit on the Internet that after spending a few minutes there you just start to feel bad for what the state of Humanity is.

Ah, the "pain in my heels". I ran myself into a case of plantar fasciitis about the beginning of 2019, tried to run through it, and lost about four months of running. I am still surprised that I was stupid enough to do this, having lost some weeks almost forty years ago to trying to run through a twinge in my knee.

Now, back in the days when I was a decent recreational runner, there was seldom a race in which I didn't wonder, about 2/3 of the way through, what in the world had caused me to sign up, and didn't think that I really shouldn't do this again. I'm not really sure what learning was involved there--it was mostly I think stubbornness, being determined that I was going to have run part of the race and suffered the discomfort without finishing.
> it almost virtually guarantees no more Republican presidents.

No, it doesn’t, unless the Republican Party doesn’t adapt to changing conditions as it has continuously since it’s founding. It probably guarantees the Republican Party will realign slightly around some peripheral issues to shift it's geographic focus slightly while retaining it's core economic message, and
continue on without breaking stride.
That's why I get upset when I look at complex code that doesn't clearly specify a whitelist of state transitions. It's easy god damn it: figure out your protocol state transitions, and write them down in your code somewhere. Now every time you change state, just match it against the whitelist of state transition that you have.
> Reddit content ranks really well on Google

The most public contribution I made to reddit's codebase when I was there was the SEO features. I did all the usual stuff like cleaning up title and meta tags, and adding a sitemap. But the change that had the largest effect, by far, was adding the title of the story into the URL. As soon as we launched that, our Google traffic shot up.

The way you know you have truly mastered SEO is when Google takes away your control of the crawl rate on your SEO control panel. Soon after that we had lunch a special set of servers that just serve requests for Google, because they were killing us by crawling years of old posts.

Harpoon (https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/300724/harpoon-v-modern-...) isn't necessarily the most complex of the games, but it's not the least complex either.

Unfortunately, I didn't see anything that I recognize as a good game (https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/2073/sixth-fleet-modern-... is popular, with the recent resurgence of late-Cold War games) and is not excessively complex.

If you go back to WWII, there are more options (and many more games). I'll just make one suggestion: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/3670/battlewagon (A print-n-play edition is available from WargameVault.) (It's moistened Star Fleet Battles, if you know that game.)

Note: if you're talking about wargames in general, the sky's kinda the limit. How about another suggestion: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/6544/battle-moscow, which is old, but intended to be an introductory game, is freely available (https://grognard.com/bfm/game.html), and has a really spiffy online verion (https://oberlabs.com/b4m/).
This is exactly the argument that I'm making.

Unfortunately, the whole concept of "growth and engagement" (and their biggest implementations - Facebook, YouTube, etc) supports so much of our society today that I don't expect neither mainstream media nor politicians to attack it.

The reason we're attacking Parler and not the underlying evil is because Parler is an easy target while the other big implementation of said evil (Facebook) underpins the careers and livelihoods of many of the people who are in a position to ban it or reform our laws.

The issue is not with the Electoral College, but with the artificial limit on the House of Representatives. The limit of 435 Reps skews the numbers.

House of Representatives is suppose to be 1 Rep per a fixed number of people. But Congress put a hard limit of 435, that means Small States have more people per Rep than Large States.

For example, Wyoming has 1 Rep for 480900 people.

California has 1 rep per 736000 people. To be fair and agree with the original intent of the US Constitution, California should have about 82 Reps instead of 53.

Texas for that matter should really have 52 Reps instead of 36 as it as now. The way it is now it has one rep per 700279 people.

Fixing that limit should solve a lot of problems
There were some interesting technologies before computer aided design in sign shops. When I was a kid one of my first jobs was silk-screening custom-made signs (like in those photos) and stickers. Much of it was done with light (UV?)-sensitive film techniques. A master was created carefully letter by letter from a bunch of letter 'stickers' [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letraset], then the light-sensitive film was applied to the silk screen, and the master laid on to it and a lamp shone on it for a few minutes. The parts NOT exposed to the light (behind the letters) were capable of being washed away with a solvent of some sort (water in some cases if I remember correctly), leaving a very high resolution stencil that would be used to print onto whatever material desired, with a number of different types of inks. Pulling a squeegee and stacking hundreds of placards for drying was my summer job for several years. :)

For the really custom stuff, our commercial artists were amazingly talented with both brush and penknife. Some of those guys could paint lettering by hand that was incredibly consistent and amazingly fast.
Yeah but that's the sad part. People still use reddit's built in system because it's there, despite the inferiority.

>How much time do you think you would need to find meaningful work?

Are you sure you can find work meaningful? I think lots of people eventually reach a point in their job/career where they stop trying to find meaning in work and try to find meaning elsewhere.

I've got a PhD and have worked in some different types of jobs inside and outside Academia. Instead of meaning, I try to understand if I can feel useful in my job. And by "useful" I don't mean curing cancer, feeding starving children, etc. If a person works in a huge company and builds a simple dashboard that saves people hundreds of hours of manual work, they can feel really useful. Maybe some parts of the job are actually interesting as well as useful.

I feel places like HN massively over-represents people who find or claim to find "meaning" in their work. It's hard to really evaluate what people are saying without knowing their age, career progression, the opportunities they did and did not have, etc.
I can also recommend the author's blog https://www.gwern.net/index# that features amazingly detailed blog posts and essays.
Java on Truffle – Going Fully Metacircular
>(Also you can't judge a translation unless you speak Japanese.)

That may be part of the problem with the industry. The average viewer is none the wiser, so the translation industry gets to make a subpar product and get away with it. If it wasn't for fansubs, they'd have a monopoly. Thankfully, the industry has spent the last 10+ years competing with fan subs instead of outright trying to nuke them and it shows. Subs (and dubs) were far far worse not that long ago.

Ironically or perhaps paradoxically, as professional made dubs and subs have increased in quality fansubs have decreased in quality. It's almost like fansubs are giving the industry a push forward.
Holy shit, I'm a liberal and I'm being downvoted to hell anytime I bring up free speech.

Any time I point out fascist China.

Any time I say tech giants like Apple have reduced our ability to freely compute on our own hardware. Or create software without bowing to a cartel. Or that Google has destroyed the free and open web with its URL-destroying, AMP-chugging browser.

If we don't protect our speech and our technology, we'll have nothing left to protect us when the monsters come.

Imagine if freedom of speech was taken away and leveraged against you. Imagine not being able to speak out against religion or members of the ruling class. Or finding yourself on the other side of the tyranny of the majority.

What happens when the next great issue is, say, transhumanism or human cloning and you have no right to talk about it?
