Determining murder is (fairly) objective. You have a dead person and a guy with a knife who confesses that he stabbed him.

Determining hate speech isn’t usually (or ever?) objective. You have a living person and a guy with a chat bubble who confesses that he has a political opinion.

Sometimes you want that guy's speech.

Take the world of Star Wars, after the Empire has won. What is hate speech in their world? If you say that people who believe in the Sith religion are bad, that's "Hate Speech" and should be deplatformed.
Hypothetical question.

It was only the other day I thought about the same problem. What if these group, or whatever it is Apple deemed unacceptable were using;

Email - Doing good old fashion email reading and writing it with Gmail.

RSS - spreading their thoughts via Feeds and read using Feedly or any other RSS Reader.

Phone Call - These people are actually communicating using Call Conference.

Will Apple forced Google to Moderate those Emails? Feedly to filter RSS? All ISP and Carriers to do similar?

I mean it is great we have many web forums, Apple themselves actively filter and purge all mention of Keyboard, Display issues, Stain gate threads on their user support forums. Normally they get spread out via other forum into Main stream media before Apple stops censoring it.

How do you think coins are made? And distributed? Of course at the moment, both systems exist so it appears that blockchain is additional and therefore unnecessary. Isn't that often how new technology first appears though?

As another example, there have been similar articles about the amount of energy used by internet datacentres. While a lot of energy is certainly used to keep the internet running, such figures are only really meaningful when compared against the existing systems they can replace. What is the environmental impact of building libraries, stocking them with books, heating and lighting them, and the physical journeys that their users have to make to get there?
Writing AS is not a pleasant experience, I agree. IMO, it was internally abandoned long time. There was a push to move the automation framework to JS with JSX, but after the initial half-broken release nothing came and as far as I understand, the team was dissolved. Shortcuts on iOS may be the model for future automation on MacOS.

This said, one of the biggest reasons I still clamp to macOS is, actually, the state of automation tooling - even in this half-abandoned state. Your example would be trivial to implement with tools like Keyboard Maestro or hammerspoon. Then there are tools like Alferd/Launchbar, Karabiner elements or bettertouchtool for touchpad gestures... It is really a vast ecosystem which is to match.

Because it is effective.

If you assume you can’t do something you definitely won’t. If you assume you can, you may not succeed; you may be blocked by some external cause, but not by something you could have controlled.

In the case of helping others, you may play a role in clearing an obstacle that, not withstanding their own effort and belief, would have blocked them.

In both cases you are assuming you have power. Power to help yourself and power to reduce inequality by empowering others.

This isn’t a contradiction.
Teams may be based on Skype tech under the hood, but the Skype desktop and mobile apps are garbage fires in comparison.

I regularly get messages come through to Skype mobile but not desktop even when I'm working on my desktop, the mobile app seems to need to crash and restart frequently, it's slow and unreliable responding to incoming calls which often get dropped, when they come to the app at all. Having said that now my organisation has decided to move decisively to teams, it's suddenly becoming unreliable. Maybe having trouble coping with increased usage. Maybe that was the problem with Skype too.
I'm not convinced deliberately trying to create an imaginary friend is a good idea. It sounds like deliberately inducing mental illness.
(Context: 27 year old in Israel)

100-150k a day is not that slow in my opinion, especially when you consider the yearly flu shot mess. Honestly, the fact we reached ~2 million in a few weeks is insane. I thought vaccines would be delayed, then deployment would lag behind, then HMO systems would absolutely crash for weeks on end, but they didn't (except the first 2-3 days) and we indeed started in December.

If the current schedule holds, I could be vaccinated in March. Given my friends' experiences in the US and UK, I consider that very fast and fast enough, at least. Would I be happier if supply sped up and we doubled vaccinations per day? Of course, but given other countries, this is very acceptable.
that's a different practice though, just uses the same tool (visualization). The goal is not happiness/serenity/inner strength but powering up your memory.

It's a good rule of thumb. It's the difference between accepting and acknowledging. You can acknowledge the hardship of others but still fight against your own.

You're being downvoted unfairly. There is of course a very simple reason why philosophy plays almost no role any longer, which was rightly pointed out by Stephen Hawking in 2010. Philosophers lack the mathematical training and maturity to follow what is going on in modern science. At Einstein's time this was not yet the case, at least Special Relativity was relatively easy to follow for philosophers (even though, to be fair, none of them managed to contribute anything of substance to it or anything of substance to early Quantum Mechanics).

It lasted up until the 1950s or so, and then philosophers started to fall behind. There has also be a substantial decline in math education for philosophers. Both Russell and Quine contributed directly to the foundations of mathematics, for instance. Even Kripke made substantial contributions to modal logic and semantic paradoxes. Nowadays you'll have to look very hard to even find a substantial contribution of a philosopher in logic, even though that's historically the mathematical discipline they know best.

As for the philosophical ideas without backing them up. People always grab some philosopher who had an idea and point out the "early roots", but they conveniently neglect the fact that simultaneously hundreds of other philosophers had patently absurd ideas as well. Even within philosophy there is a huge business based entirely on selection bias. People quote Aristotle as authoritative source, but of course only ever those parts of his work that remotely make sense. Democrit's theory of atoms is another typical example. It barely made sense at his time, and only so in opposition to other nonsense invented by "nature" philosophers then, yet he's misquoted as the inventor of the modern atom theory in every second slide show about chemistry.
Does it also solve the problem of everyone having different hardware?
> California is a one party state, completely dominated by the Democrat party.

Only fairly recently had the competitiveness of the California Republican Party collapsed utterly, and entirely because they've slavishly followed the national party away from California interests.

> I'm a registered Democrat

Who nevertheless uses the deliberately incorrect “Democrat Party” invented for and consistently used in Republican propaganda?

> Newsom/Getty

Yeah, now if you just throw around “socialist" gratuitously, you’ll complete the image.

Looking at your history, your political posts are pretty consistently standard Republican attacks on Democratic positions and the Democratic Party, so I'm not surprised.
Installed desktop version on Manjaro yesterday after reading post on lobsters; electron-based app running on Tor-like decentralized network, requires only username and password during account creation which is something rarely seen nowadays. Settings are protected from tampering by password each time you wanna make a change - which is weird but since it requires only username and password is a fair requirement, I guess. Multidevices support was present but removed due some bugs but as Loki Foundation behind IM states, it's gonna eventually return.

What is unique, is the way contacts are handled - it's an alphanumeric ID you pass to your contact but seems there's a plan to support standard usernames with a fee. Tho, there are also QR codes on profile page you can share with contacts which should make easier adding people.

There's emoji support obviously but no stickers (if someone cares actually about that), delivered/seen messages status and typing, audio messages and spellcheck.

Seems like yet another pretty good alternative but the fact is Australian-based worries me - Oz guys have some issues with encryption law iirc.

> Also, the combustion chamber will have a vent for the exhaust. So I would suspect that it won't be any more efficient, except for very small pot sizes.

The airflow needs to be there, but I imagine it could be slowed down, so that the hot air spends more time transferring energy to the pot. That would retain the fast reaction time, and let one burn less gas for the same amount of cooking output.
You have a bad understanding of what mental illness is then. Imaginary friend is a coping mechanism not gateway to becoming crazy.
I'm Polish and I had one. Then again I was born abroad. My SO and her sister had those as well though.

I don't think it's that rare. It's just that there's - like with multiple other things - a social stigma connected with it, so it's not talked about.

But the standards being promoted here, Twitter and Facebook itself would clearly fail at.

A political opinion and hate speech are distinct. There's at least one law body you can look at to help you understand why and how that is, namely the German one.
How would you enforce it?
All true; Bergson's critique is believed to have directly influenced the Nobel prize committee. In hindsight an absolute travesty.

However, I would not say that Einstein's explanation of the photoelectric effect was not Nobel prize worthy in itself, or even less groundbreaking, as it laid the foundations for quantum theory.

Also, remember that at the time when Einstein's Nobel prize was awarded the general theory of relativity was very new and had only been partially confirmed by experiment (by light bending near the sun and the precession of mercury) so the Nobel prize would have have had to been awarded of the special theory alone.
Ask HN: Do you want a 3rd app to perform write action on your cloud infra?
Hi HN, I plan to build a service provides features that cloud providers (digitalocean, vultr, etc.) don't implement but can achieve via their API. But these tasks require write access (obtained via OAuth), so I don't know if developers/admins want to use it?

Thanks!
That is my whole point though: the WebExtensions API is a standard, so it's not like you can't test your extension without owning a Mac. If your extension works on both Firefox and Chrome, it really should work on Safari too. If it doesn't, that's Apple's fault for violating the standard, not yours for not testing on their broken platform. If you want to specifically test it you can, but if you don't see a reason to, you should be able to just port it over and let people use it and beta test it for you.
> Chopping an onion takes what feels like an eternity.

It's definitely partly practice, but make sure you have a decently sharp knife (you don't need to get anything ridiculously expensive but you should be paying ~£20 for one knife). The cheap "sharp knives" you get for £20-30 for a whole set tend to not actually be that sharp and make it really difficult to cut through things like onions because they slip all over the place.
I know! One day it's going to get so bad people are going to have to deploy critical thinking instead of accepting what they read at face value and suffer the indignity of having to think for themselves.
It does.

I don't think static linking saves you here. This looks to be caused by an ODR violation (the "one definition rule"). The linker has two symbols with the same identifier and has to choose one.
I don't have an autonomous internal monologue, but I can speak in my mind, meaning just like actual speech but without the physical sound making. But it's not some other entity saying stuff.to be honest, if someone told me they hear voices in their head I would assume they are not 100% alright mentally, which is totally okay of course but I'd suspect perhaps they should seek treatment. Now that I'm seeing so many commenters (probably a biased self selected sample though) saying they hallucinate all the time,see entities and hear voices, I'm less sure and perhaps it's normal?

If every manager was a good manager, there'd be no need for HR. Good managers don't cause HR-type problems, and can deal with any problems in their teams without involving HR.

So, yeah, kinda - management at most companies don't want HR to be like this. The bad managers because HR keeps getting involved with them, the good ones because HR imposes restrictions that they don't need. But HR is like this because it needs to protect the organisation from bad management.

Until Google or a backbone provider BGP announce that they own your IP ranges. And then add your site to SafeBrowsing. And then your domain provider suspends your domain. Sure.

HN has been kind of absurd to watch on this topic over the past few years. At first it was, "if you don't like Twitter's policies build your own Twitter". So people did. Now it's literally build your own internet and smartphone ecosystem. I wonder if those people ever go back and re-visit their old positions to re-evaluate if it was reasonable.
Specialized hiking gear typically come with integrated heat exchangers and insulation to be more efficient when used on gas-fired stoves. This makes them really good at boiling water, and terrible at anything else since it's impossible to control the heat in any meaningful way.

You could make the same argument for the iPad. But they do sell cellular iPads.

In my experience, personal hotspot on my Macbook takes about 30 seconds to connect, and it sometimes just fails to connect altogether. It disconnects when I close my Macbook, so next time I open it I need to connect again. Sometimes my phone doesn't show up in the Wifi menu and I need to manually start hotspot mode on my iPhone.

I'd much prefer a built-in cellular modem.
It's not as simple as just writing an algorithm.
I wouldn't be so hasty in saying that Jails implementation doesn't suffer either - there are dragons there too, it wasn't all just designed and written in one go, there are layers upon layers and it is not all pink and unicorns as it perhaps initially was ;)

RunC isn't "their own implementation" but rather an OCI (Open Containers Initiative) standard that world seems to be adopting and I wish FreeBSD Jails would be a part of it.

Full disk encryption alone suffices against device theft, presuming the device is turned off. More complicated threat models like an evil-maid attack are much harder to defend against.

Secure boot, and temper-evident device seals, form the outline of a solution. As far as I know though, these are still far from foolproof. Really I would say defending from an evil maid attack is still an open problem.

Something very similar holds for theft of devices that are still on.

I think the definition of "imaginary friend" might be messing up statistics here? As a kid I definitely made up friends in my mind, but only as a way to make myself seem better in front of other people.

Ah it has infected hacker news too.
I see no real fight against it, so far, which is sad

In fairness, Android was specifically created to be nothing but fight against it. First the pre-smartphone carriers acting as gateways (and they were absolutely happy to do what Apple are doing now), and then Apple when the iPhone came out. Google put billions into establishing a parallel ecosystem where you can install apps outside of the Play Store and even fork the entire OS.

They did this because the creators of Android were very wise. They knew that total power over what apps could be run would corrupt them, so they made sure to put in back doors so if they did become corrupted, users could still escape. And indeed they were correct about that: Google is now fully corrupted in the same way Apple is. However, you can still install the Parler app on Android if you want. It's not as convenient as through the Play Store but it's not much worse than the experience of doing so on a PC or Mac.
