"Where is the encryption being added?"

It is being added by the proxy server listening on the loopback which connects to the remote website.

Browser connects to forward proxy on port 80, forward proxy (compiled with SSL library) connects to target IP on port 443.

This is how one can, e.g, use clients that are not SSL-enabled to access websites, etc. that require SSL.

For example, if forward proxy is listening on 127.0.0.1:80, we can make an encrypted connection to example.com using original *hobbit netcat which does not support SSL.

echo -e 'GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: example.com\r\nConnection: close\r\n\r\n" |nc -vvn 127.0.0.1 80

It is probably more popular to use stunnel for this purpose instead of a forward proxy.
How is it a "rhetorical gotcha" to ask what it would look like to consistently apply a proposed principle or law?

Equal protection under the law is also a constitutional principle (I knew that one already, thanks), but it seems in short supply in much of modern thinking and advocacy.

The first question somebody should ask when advocating some kind of measure aimed at their adversaries is: what would it look like if this was applied to my friends also?

Groups like the ACLU used to think this way, which is why they defended the most undesirable groups advancing the most repulsive ideas.

That kind of thinking is going by the wayside as longstanding liberal principles like freedom of speech, due process, presumption of innocence, etc. are all going by the wayside, tarred by their association with the "right wing."

i see a bunch of replies - stating that Amazon followed the contract.

Regardless, even if 30 days notice is given to a business to change something, it simply might not be enough.

So, the risk as I stated, still stands.

Four million in UK get their first vaccine
Our infection rates in the UK are not good. Hospitals are stretched more so than ever before. We have not exactly been leading the way in dealing with COVID (from a leadership perspective).

But, it's great to see 4m have already had their first jab.

It's been said before, but I think it's incredible that we're at this point less than a year after efforts began to find a vaccine.

(Notwithstanding prior work on mRNA etc.)
I've been trying to move away from things like create-react-app and towards things like Parcel, but pretty most statically typed stack has some sort "compile time" typechecking that would be needless to have in the browser. Ergo, expecting the browser to do everything we want to provide a development environment is going to be a tough call. It would be lush if Firefox and Chrome supported TypeScript natively, but it would always lag behind I think.
His writing style seems similar to Hunter Thompson’s - I wouldn’t read into it too deeply, exaggeration is the backbone. Personally I enjoy it.

As for the actual content, there’s a massive difference between customers dying to use your product and them telling you it’d be “neat”. People don’t buy “neat” products. This is why you talk money to them as soon as possible. No real surprise it didn’t work out for him, the incentives just aren’t there.

He could have prevented all this by reading the Mom Test - oh well, experience is the best teacher anyways.
I used the system I built with my team for real time health data tracking that includes data from a continuous glucose sensor, Apple Health data (sleep, activity, heart rate, etc), urinalysis feature within Basis for the majority of this.

It's as successful as it is because it is KNOWINGLY tapping into the cognitive dissonance, for the purpose of inciting domestic terrorism and the collapse of Western society.

Basically, look at the things you cited as the reason such an attack could be effective, even unanswerable. If the rich people, etc etc, behaved better and weren't awful, it would be a lot harder to mount such an attack. But it was made easy to do, and for that reason the whole 'freedom of speech' thing is nothing more than an attack vector at this point. We've lost that. There is no way it's sustainable the way some people would like it to be sustainable. There are powerful interests, state actors, weaponizing every little shred of freedom to destroy Western society, and I don't see any good answers at this point.

It was a weakness. We could have freedom of speech as long as it wasn't being weaponized on a massive scale against us. We could have freedom of speech so long as massive calculated lying wasn't a primary tactic, so long as people could be taken at face value. That's simply not true anymore.

And suppose there even were an insurrection. Strike that - suppose there was a war. We have 20th century behind us. It's not something that happened before history was invented by Herodotus. There are still people alive who have seen shit by their own eyes that would make average twitterati literally wet their pants on the spot just to think about it - and emerged through it without their ideals shattered. We still have Mein Kampf and Communist Manifesto sold on Amazon - and nobody is scared of it. Nobody abandons free speech because actual Gulags and actual Nazis actually, not metaphorically, happened. But now somehow people come out and say "maybe free speech isn't that good an idea. I know about Hitler. I know about Stalin. I know about Pol Pot, Osama bin Laden and Radio Of Thousand Hills. None of it have ever shaken me, I knew freedom of speech is important. But now, that's different!" What is going on, seriously? How does it make any sense? Are we being targeted by CIA for one of those mind control experiments again?
Impressive! Excuse an ignorant question, but there’s no support for Nvidia cards, I guess?
True, but he didn't talk to consumers before spending the $40K either.

Also I don't think $40K is cheap for an MVP. He could have used static HTML mock-ups, or even a few Power Point slides to see if his potential customers would have paid for that service.
Actually, attacks using Thunderbolt PCIe capabilities are too much realistic that it is no longer funny (and it is not just a security bug, its a real feature).
I have very similar experience in very different field.

About 8 years ago, we've built a SAAS for purchasing material for companies using auctions. The idea was that if it will be super easy for companies to do reverse auctions and use them to buy material they will save a lot of money (proven concept in those who actually used it).

But what we learned after some time was it didn't matter. Because people in the companies responsible for buying material didn't really care for how much they buy it. They care that they call their favourite supplier have a nice chat and then order whatever they need. And those suppliers throw some "gifts/rewards" to the package here and there. And without appraisal of those people the business owner never said yes.

The thing was that those people who effectively decided if they will use it or not didn't benefited from it at all.

We haven't lost so much money on that, but the lesson learned was huge.
You mean how one side for the last four years has said that Trump "stole" the election due to Russian interference.

The fact is, this is all whataboutism. This is all due to instructional failure. Americans increasing do not trust the institutions, the media, the government, 'elites'. This lack of trust is the root cause for growing conspiracy theories. The answer to this is not to stifle speech, but to have more speech. After all, sunlight is the best disinfectant.
Hilarious that they named it after 'sosumi' which was apple's cheeky name for a sound effect that iirc was a response to a legal claim that their computers were not permitted to produce audio: 'so sue me'.
You get much more signals from an app than a web page or god forbid just local data.

It is probably why companies like reddit push their app so hard that it almost makes using the web page on mobile impossible.

No, I've just read a little on the subject.

Obviously comparisons are hard since we dismantled the orphanages in the 50s/early 60s but the best comparisons show orphanages performing favorably. I think people got caught up too much shows and plays about this stuff.
Makes sense—haven't seen the show but appreciate the context.

A while back I emailed Thom Henderson for the ARC source code and he sent it to me. I planned to port it to Python for kicks but never got around to it...
An exponentially growing annual fee is also a great way to fund public goods.

For example, if you increment the exponent every three years, a $20 initial fee would cost half a billion dollars annually after 20 years. That buys a lot of school supplies.
The problem is the amount of power held by just a few "platforms." The government may not legally be able to censor what they don't like, but if they can influence the platforms that can it amounts to the same thing.

If you stick to multiplication and addition then the beauty of modular arithmetic ensures that over and underflow are only a problem if your final result under/overflows.

In particular you can solve the problem in this article by just subtracting the numbers from 1+2+...+n-1+n. The remainder will be your missing number (though be careful with the 1+2+...+n-1+n = n(n-1)/2 formula; division by 2 is very much not compatible with arithmetic modulo a power of 2, so divide first then multiply, or keep a running total if you want to be flexible).
Decisions are made based on preciously gained information and learned experiences, if anything is to blame for poor decisions it is the conditions that led to that brain state. Although free will appears to be an illusion because of the deterministic nature of physical systems, the way we understand blame may be inaccurate.
I wouldn't stress over it one way or the other. This has been going on for many years, if not hundreds or thousands of years in human history. One group of people has always tried to take control over another group of people, by propaganda or force as necessary. Simply pick any history book and read about difficult times.

Being depressed or in despair actually makes it easier for the propaganda to work.

Seek out the truth, as the saying goes, the truth is out there.

One thing about people in tech are that they are aware of patterns. Certain patterns seems to work and certain patterns don't seem to work. Ask why certain patterns are pushed by central authorities and mainstream popular media and certain patterns are suppressed.
The task of relaying blocks falls to every node; you are correct there (and I never claimed otherwise). But, if a miner produces a block that the vast majority of nodes reject, then the network effectively splits into two parts -- one part where the block was never "seen" and the other part where it was. If the part that never "sees" the block represents more economic activity -- e.g. the majority of exchanges' nodes, the majority of wallets' nodes, etc. -- then it doesn't matter how much mining PoW gets sunk into that block and its descendants because they will never be processed. Downstream, that means that the miner's coins never materialize on these nodes, which makes mining non-relayed blocks unprofitable. Miners need other nodes to recognize their blocks in order for those other nodes' operators to recognize the existence of their coins.

For example, consider what would happen if a miner produced a block that tried to spend a Segwit output without consideration of the witness. Under the Bitcoin protocol, this is technically allowed -- a Segwit output looks like an anyone-can-spend output. But due to the extra Segwit rules, only pre-Segwit nodes would accept and relay this block. Considering that nearly all exchanges, wallets, custodians, etc. apply the Segwit rules, this would mean that this block would be treated as invalid and its coinbase rendered effectively unspendable. Even if 100% of the Bitcoin miners tried to build on top of this Bitcoin-valid but Segwit-invalid block, all their blocks would be similarly rejected. Only pre-Segwit Bitcoin nodes would accept these blocks, but hardly anyone runs them [1] (note that Segwit support first appeared in version 0.16; there are indeed still some people running pre-Segwit nodes).

> I thought I believed in free speech

You do. But the idea of free speech has been twisted and warped to mean speech without social or economic consequences and that is where it goes wrong.

I doubt you believe that speech should be more criminalized than it already is. I think most of us agree that having an opinion, no matter how outrageous or evil, should not be a crime. We agree on exceptions to this for outright threats of violence.

The expectation that speech should be free-as-in-beer. That you are entitled to a platform. That you should be free of all consequence. This the problem.

Providing privacy and communications produces not subject to control of a central authority isn't a bad thing! But we also shouldn't just be mindless cogs in the free speech money machine.
That is why you need an educated populace. By educated, we mean one that can think critically and independently rather than a college credential.
> A pharmacy could just make a decision tree with some common symptoms and do the same thing based on their own recommendations.

Sure, and I’d go to a pharmacy who did this based off of science instead of whoever paid for an end cap advertisement that month.
Adverse selection of people claiming residency benefits isn't the only issue I cited there, right? There are things countries can do to finance universal health care that states can't do.
Obviously there wouldn't be '2 Presidents' by any reasonable application of a set of very clear rules.

But those rules are not clear.

One camp would believe, that Biden won a fair election, as stated by the DOJ, Homeland Security and the State Officals (it's their perogative), and that the preformative process of validating the results in Congress wasn't entirely necessary.

The other claim would claim with 'the election was disputed' and that the failure to confirm the results in Congress was a 'fully legal act' that abnegates the possibility of Biden from taking office.

AKA '2 Presidents' by virtue of you you interpret the outcomes of those events.

The 20th Amendment does not help us clarify that situation.

In these contentious scenarios, the credibility of institutions is stretched and populism starts to take hold.

It would be major crisis.

This is why institutions started to rally around 'one camp' as to facilitate a proper transfer of power.

Since much of this debacle was based off of misinformation, it speaks directly to issues with 'truth' and 'freedom of expression'. I'm not sure if there is an obvious answer on the table, but there are definitely problems.
Just to play the Devil's advocate here:
Now, Amazon had given notice to Parler that they want some moderation that is automated...
What are the specs for that? What would satisfy Amazon?
Can it be delivered within that timeframe setting aside whatever else is going on?

These are real concerns for a company going forward. I guess many do not state because of the political ramifications of this particular case, but it will be discussed in board rooms.

as an example, i had a bad experience once with a HOA while living in my own home; the next home i bought, i ensured that i did not have to deal with the HOA.
Depends largely on how stable the foster family is, and how much effort the kid's social worker can (or wants) to put in.

I've known children who left unstructured, chaotic situations and were placed in... unstructured, chaotic foster homes. Many foster homes are like warehouses with upward of 6-8 children at a time. Fostering children is a paycheck for some foster parents.

I've also known a foster child who was placed in a home wherein the foster family had biological children in the house. The biological children were treated better and more lovingly than the foster child. The foster child left an abusive situation, only to find inequitable treatment. The foster child never had anyone model a loving, supportive relationship. So they bounced around from abusive, drug-addicted partner to abusive, drug-addicted partner until they got tired of being around abusive people and drugs.

Without a role model, it's hard to be equipped once you're legally an adult and don't have someone making decisions for you. Being an adult is a big responsibility, and a lot of these children weren't prepared to make healthy decisions. And they don't have health coping mechanisms.
Unless you're Joe Biden, you don't... but if he or his admin wants to not alienate the ordinary Russian people, he should emphasize "Russian government" or Putin and make sure the media notices what he's saying.
$40K is not much to put into a business but it's a lot to spend before you validate your idea.
Recent events such as the BLM riots or the riot at or nation's capital? I don’t agreer with either though I find it troubling that the politicians seem to be a lot more concerned with their safety than they were about private citizens safety or property during the BLM riots earlier last year.

About free speech making the world a better place.. those last 2 words are very subjective. It seems the only voices that were silenced were those with opposing opinions of our corporate ‘masters’.

Also is a better world - whatever that is - a required outcome for free speech? I think it’s a basic tenant of freedom and a free world. Being oppressed either by a corporation or a government is still oppression.

That's an interesting fact that puts the issue into a light I hadn't considered. Fortunately, the literal "lost cause" language of the American Civil War has already run its course, caused its damage (up to and including a presidential assassination), and the country has survived. Would banning confederate symbols have prevented the assassination of Lincoln? Probably not, to be honest. I wonder if it would have prevented anything.
I think the argument is that lower courts are supposed to follow the rulings from higher courts, either due to precedent or just consistency. Lower courts can be hesitant to rule on novel cases, and seem to side with 'guilty until proven otherwise' instead of 'innocent until proven guilty' when these technicalities come along.

I feel like you are partially right about conservative judges. I do think they tend to be more 'tough on crime', especially at lower levels. But it also seems that at the higher courts they tend to apply the law as it was written. In this case, if it is applied as written, then the defendant would be dismissed or not guilty.

I don't know. Based on my recent experiences, the system is a sham.
This gets me thinking. From a legal perspective, does a parent's consent to tracking pass over to their children even after reaching adulthood? (say for GDPR etc.)
On the other hand, I'm amazed by how easily people are handwaving away what was a hairs breath from the murder and kidnapping of multiple elected officials, not to mention constitutional crisis/breakdown.

> TV and Twitter that told them there was an "insurrection"

It meets the definition though. There seems to be a lack of willingness to acknowledge an attempted coup as a coup, or a failed insurrection as an insurrection. And I get why. It's terrifying to acknowledge that. It's uncomfortable to realize how close we came to really bad things (and admittedly, hard to quantify how close we came. Trying to figure out what would have happened if Pence rejected the results, or if he was killed on the 6th is difficult. Many things could have happened).

> it doesn't take Russians or Chinese

Erm, Russians are 100% implicated in stoking civil unrest and conspiracies that built towards the events of the 6th. The Chinese may be, but I don't know. The problem is that people refuse to acknowledge that and take the threat seriously, which is how we got here.

The universe appears to be fairly flat, but according to:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape_of_the_universe

...if the universe was like a "3-torus", it could be both flat and finite: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-torus

If you ever played the classic game "asteroids", you might remember how everything wrapped around at the edges of the screen. A 3-torus would be like that, only in 3D.

On the other hand, one could imagine the universe as a 3-sphere, which I believe would mean it would be both locally curved and finite in volume. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-sphere

There are also other possibilities, like something analogous to a Klein bottle with an extra dimension.

There are a bunch of possibilities for "flat and finite" as well as "positively curved and finite" that I can't begin to visualize.

There is even supposedly such a (hypothetical) thing as a negatively curved, (commonly described as saddle shaped) yet finite universe.

But regardless, the current belief about the real universe is that it is at least very close to flat, but not known to be finite or infinite.
