> Open Source Software, at the very least, IS Communism, Marxism, Socialism – in practice…

I don’t think that’s true. Socialism tends to focus on socializing control of the means of production, defined specifically as the physical instruments that enable but (though they experience wear) are not consumed in production. Its true that Free Software ideology behind the (A)GPL can be seen as an analog to anarcho- (rather than state-) socialist ideology focussed not on the physical means of production (and whose advocates often have extremely high regard for physical property rights whether or not in means of production) but on software.

But “is analogous to a form of X different than what most people discussing X have in mind, with substantial changes in focal domain” is not the same thing as “is X in practice”.

> There’s a time and a place for everything” (You know, like that old song by “The Byrds”: “Turn!, Turn!, Turn!”)

Well, first recorded by the Limelighters, written (and also recorded early on) by Pete Seeger, and lyrics mostly attributed to King Solomon, but in any case a couple thousand years before the Byrds.

> Have innumerably benefitted and helped and advanced our Capitalist economy…

Even at the legal level, modern developed economies universally are variants of what has been called “the modern mixed economy”, which is a blend of capitalist and socialist elements (pure “capitalism” having fallen out of favor in the early-mid-20th Century.)

Its mostly still called “capitalism” because Soviet Communism became (and anchored “Socialism”, in many places, by extension as) a boogeyman lots of places not long before that, so identifying as “capitalist” against “socialists” and especially “communists” was common even among people who substantively opposed capitalism and advocated for reforms drawn directly out of socialist (and sometimes specifically Marxist Communist) ideology.

The article claims that the ABC would benefit from deals with Google, but wasn't the ABC (and SBS) expressly excluded from the law?

It's clear that it is a lobby vs lobby situation. Murdoch is a king maker. He will likely prevail. I am not as optimistic about a positive outcome for Australians.

> They are demanding to be reinstated immediately.

LOL. You were using someone else's website - Zuck's, to be specific. If you demand that he allows you to post on his site, could I make demands to post on your site?

I'm actually glad these are finally happening. People need to learn to go back running their own services, under their own domain, owned (bought or leased) hardware, etc.

The current "social" media + cloud everything is a bad road, but apparently this - the shutdowns - is the only way to get out of this swamp.
I am already envisioning projects I could use that with. I will find those videos. I am curious to see if anyone has used it with a shotcrete sprayer. I bet they have.
That is a bit "unfair", although not in a deliberate way. Maybe just say "Happy Hannukah" on one particular day? That serves the purpose of inclusion well enough. If someone objects to saying "Happy Hannukah" at all, then just ignore them I guess? That seems to be the status quo already.

I don't really care about placing blame. My objections are often because I don't feel that liberal ideas actually achieve what they claim to be for. I'm often for the stated ideal, but against the implementation. In this case I feel that the implementation is not very inclusive but does seem exclusive, and it could be done a lot better.

Agreed. It seems with our current "world plan" (infinite growth to prop up the asset class), the only way forward is to push people into smaller and smaller boxes with less and less liberties.

Someday we'll be saying that travel is only for the rich - everyone else will be forced to use VR, and they will be brainwashed to like it. As they say, American lifestyles are only sustainable for the 1%. The rest of us should eat bugs and live in pods.

As we move into cities, production becomes cheaper - which means we produce more, which means we can support more people, which means we need to increase efficiency even more.

I'm not sure that this is preferable to life without technology. Aren't family and small moments the things that make life worth living? Squeezing out a few more years of expected lifespan hardly seems worth the tradeoff to me.

Personally, I don't think this is sustainable.
German derivation, of course, but the American English usage is more particularly Yiddish (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mensch).
... I sawed the ISS in half.
The electricity that charges electric car batteries has to be generated somehow. In America, a lot of electricity is generated by coal power plants. For now, most electric cars are not in use in places where coal is the dominant energy source, so it's not a fair statement (for now).
Revolving the earth each 90min, with the changes in the amount of energy received by the sun in each cycle has to be very stressful for a metal frame.
A salt shaker that makes its own salt to boot! Never run out of salt again with our new patented shaker! Just $19.99 if you buy within the next 15 minutes. Order now, and we'll also throw in the matching pepper shaker (not self re-filling) for free! (just pay S&H for both)
The plywood I often buy at a big box home store is labeled as 23/32" (0.71875" or 1/32" less than 3/4") and it is actually that thickness. I don't recall seeing any 3/4" labeled plywood though.
Honestly, the market will take care of it: who's comfortable hosting their content on the platform any more? They've alienated the right and the left.

At the end of the day/century, FB is just a random internet site/app. Discourse is online, yes, but the zeitgeist left FB years ago. Zuck's fate will catch up with him fast, now that their network effect has broken, or is close to doing so.

It's already over. FB/IG/WhatsApp are all clearly dead, in the Grahamian sense.
It's shit like this that makes me re-consider the simulation argument, like how statistics is just an optimization to save compute power.
You're joking but this reminds me of a hard sci-fi novel I read recently, Saturn Run[0]. One of the minor worldbuilding trivia there is that adhesives seem to be way overused to fix and modify things in space.

(The book also features the coolest design for a radiator I've ever seen anywhere.)

Couldn't you disable those at startup and then turn them on as needed? For example, will you instantly listen to music or run a docker container after you log in?
Ugh, card payments in Germany, for non-Germans, is generally a nightmare anyway. It's a bummer that it's not a solved problem for EV charging, because in many ways, I think the EU is ahead of the US in (non-Tesla) charging infra.
I believe Trillian still continued to support other networks (as long as they could) after introducing "Astra" or whatever they called their own chat network. Most of them have died off over time or locked out 3rd party clients (AIM, Google, Yahoo, MSN, etc.).
Some workplaces (like mine) offer charging (mostly L2) for employees. Makes commuting via EV more feasible. I mean, honestly, it's one of the only reasons I need a car.

Of course, as I haven't had to go in for the past 10 months due to shelter in place - I charge like 1/week or less as opposed to daily.
> TSMC will be top dog for a while, until something happens that causes the market for custom made silicon to collapse.

Contrary to many popular technological opinions, Moore's Law will be dead for a while. We're nearly at our physical limits. When this is ceiling is hit, we'll start seeing numerous more competition enter the fray. This is because the research part will be too large for one company to innovate itself out of (TSMC will be the first to hit the ceiling and the competition will reach the same ceiling in a short time. Together, they may advance our scientific understanding but I think governments would need to get aggressively involved). This is afundamental scientific limitation. There is no emerging research that will overcome this problem (zero theoretical research that can be used for engineering the manufacturing needed for the next advancements).

3D transistors are next but that's not growth at an exponential curve. We're looking at a linear growth future for a while.

P.S. I'm 33 and I expect within the next 6-15 years that we'll hit this limit and be at this limit for most of my working career unless we start seeing some seriously massive investment to unearth more advanced physics that we can implement at the pico-level. If you disagree, I'd love to hear what you think that will allow Moore to continue because I've read numerous studies and essentially all have zero tangible implementations.
The cosmonauts (Russian segment) already tried the tape [0] - it helped, somewhat, but did not fix the problem. Definitely not as advertised...

Australia used to have tariff barriers to support local car manufacturers. Ford, GM, Chrysler/Mitsubishi set up. From that we got a local industry and poor quality, expensive cars. Tariff barriers were removed, GM shut down local production. Is that a good thing now Toyotas are cheaper? Opinions vary. Were the jobs working for GM that were lost made up elsewhere as s result of the end of the tariffs? You guessed it, opinions vary.

Google don't pay meaningful tax in Australia so it's hard to like them here.
Wow. This really looks interesting!

Ditching PHP for Golang and a full rewrite? Kudos!
> Also, fast charge is very slowed down in cold climates and/or when you are reaching 80%.

Some EVs with temperature management systems can precondition the battery for charging. This negates reduced charging speeds at extreme temperatures.
ctrl+f'ed for OneTab before I posted incase it was a dupe. It is a great extension and you make a good point. Ideally it'd be as easy to edit as this.
>I would personally love to see a "web" where you have to comment...as your public self. Post messages...as your public self (not just on an individual platform level). So on and so forth.

That's Facebook though. And in my anecdotal experience the only reason most of my friends group has ever used Facebook is to post in private groups and events and use messenger. Scarcely any wall posts, very few posts in public groups. No opinions or politics whatsoever. Maybe the odd activist sharing some "wear a mask" message.

Those who engage in public discourse under their own names on the platform are by and large kind of ... strange.

Using your actual name for everything would be an amazing tool for building up a profile on you. Either you lay out your hobbies, interests and political standings for the whole world to see or you stop participating in those communities and discussions. And the profile won't be about only you, but your employer as well. If a load of engineers at X start posting more about tech Y or methodology Z you can deduce internal workings from that.
In the US several regions have reintroduced or supported nearly extinct populations of wolves.
Or simple mechanical stress when the ISS raises its altitude. The thrusters cause vibration, and are not applying a uniform force across its surface.
Nah, they can't refuse to stop. We just need strong enough coalition of countries. Not sure if US is going to do it but EU certainly will. And once laws are in place all those deplatformed organizations will pop up again pretty quickly.

Don't worry, Uber will match this feature soon, offering 10x the rides for driver at 50% pay cut.
There are real advantages to being anonymous though, especially given the well-known tendencies of societies to end up in manias of intolerance.

I think you can have platforms that encourage civilized discussion w/o needing to link that to a real name. (HN is a great example of that, in fact!)

And conversely, even a platform with real names attached can still end up being extremely uncivil (e.g. Facebook).

There's also a long (pre-internet) history of people publishing good stuff anonymously, for one reason or another.
It's possible I missed a nuance but I'm not seeing the difference between 'speculation' and 'threat' as significant enough to support a substantively different discussion, which is the criterion we use in such cases:

Aren't micropayments on mobile platforms a big thing in India, China, and Africa?

Practically things like Spotify and Netflix are microtransactions; you just don't have to worry about the details of how much each product costs.

Unfortunately the incentives for these marketplaces are to power them with subscriptions instead of, say, a monthly bill, and so what tends to happen is fragmented markets where new players hope to capture a segment of the monthly subscriptions people are willing to maintain instead of a fraction of the market as a whole.
So is that going to be M as 1000^2 or M as 1024^2.

> no ICE vehicles

Even with chargers everywhere there will be a problem: we'll have to produce a lot more electricity. And when we start reading about possible blackouts in some countries in Europe due to environmental decisions 2030 feels like not far enough.

Solar and wind won't be enough. Nuclear suffers from NIMBY. So what? We'll produce electricity from oil, coal and gaz? Awesome way to move the emission problem. Same method as moving production and recycling to Asia and Africa.

Shopify provided a strong alternative to Amazon, which is the dominant player.

There are plenty of strong alternatives to Netflix. Disney is looking to be the strongest at the moment.
> why not create your own custom state management system from scratch

Normally "roll-your-own" is bad advice. But in enterprise apps I can see all you needing is an API client with normalized caching (Apollo or `react-query` for REST), and store as much of your page state in your query string, and the rest in React Context. I would reach for Recoil if React Context performance became an issue.

But rolling your own comes with so much personal risk if things go wrong - not good for politics.
> a non-Tesla owner

I think you'll be in the minority.
> My bet is the issue is most likely stresses due to vibrations under pressure and pressure changes.

So you are saying it's degrading?
IMHO, there's a bit of an irony that I see with a lot of React projects: people often say that w/ vanilla JS, you end up reinventing wheels poorly, yet this is exactly what a lot of React projects I see look like: people that don't really have framework-building experience attempting to cobble up something similar in scope to Angular or Ember by using React + a bunch of other libraries (often libraries they've never used before).

There's certainly a case to be made about large teams being a problem of their own, but FWIW, a lot of projects _don't_ have large frontend teams (I'd say 1 to 3 frontend devs is fairly typical). Standardization _across_ teams can definitely be a problem, but at some point one has to wonder if it isn't more sensible to just have each teams develop separate apps that load in separate pages, or, you know, just use a more batteries-included, prescriptive framework.
Is there a way to watch the video without JS?
Pseudonymity and anonymity are not the same thing.

Pseudonyms that are not trivially created and discarded can build reputation and will generally behave themselves (see Urbit’s approach to this problem).

Anonymous accounts incentivize awful behavior (see 4chan).

Real life is different because you’re not truly anonymous in person - you’re recognizable most of the time and identifiable. There are also more in person norms and social constraints.

The exception to this in real life might be mobs, where the chaos and confusion can provide some anonymity and well - people in mobs don’t behave that well either.
This explanation of the rate of electrification was somewhat compelling (I would like to hear arguments against):

Lightning over Bitcoin? This can't be serious, can it? LN is vaporware from day one. It serves no purpose because it is essentially centralizing a decentralized service. And when it still cost $5-10 to send BTC to a LN node, you are no better off than credit card fees.

Hilariously BTC had this problem solved from day one, then Blockstream hijacked the GitHub repo, kicked out all the original devs and artificially limited the block size to try and push people onto their own "second layer" products.

Why anyone would use LN rather than just real Bitcoin (now called Bitcoin Cash) is beyond me. They have lots of trolls (Adam Back) and social engineers (Greg Maxwell) pushing a false narrative but how real people fall for it is still just bizarre.

Many companies don't allow their employees to say Merry Christmas, because it could offend customers.

When you interact with public employees and 10 out of 10 say "Happy Holidays", it becomes a social norm. Breaking that norm then feels uncomfortable, and people who are already biased against Christians will seize the opportunity to say that Merry Christmas is insensitive.

You can only say that the messaging for "Bring Back Merry Christmas" is more aggressive - the tactics on the Happy Holidays side are certainly ruthless, because there's a profit motive behind it.
Polya's Problem Solving Techniques – Four basic principles of problem solving
You can edit the wifi network and change from DHCP to static IP. Then you can set the DNS for that network right there.

You run the risk where your phone is set to always use 192.168.1.147 but another device @ .147 is already connected via DHCP, but it's not really a thing that will happen because the chances are so low. And it's a bit hard on public WiFi where finding the gateway, subnet mask, etc. could be hard, or there might be some access control mechanism on the network side.

But for a large amount of people, setting the DNS on their home WiFi with this method would cover 50-90%+ of network usage. No root required.

That depends on what you mean by radiation, and 'leak inside'

On the ground, most radiation 'leaks' are mostly chemical contamination problems.

In space the volume of free material, and the pressure gradient should prevent anything outside coming in. Except perhaps on the exposed surfaces of the airlocks/docking adapters.

Come types of particle radiation might cause transmutation/activiation of the hull material - that could be a concern. I doubt it's major issue.
Not a big space person, but this makes me wonder: why have we not planned for a new ISS? We must have better tech nowadays from all the working countries/groups currently involved, plus SpaceX and other space companies' backing that would not have existed as it does now back when this ISS was first designed/created.
A good demonstration, to the people (who claim to be) on the left while cheering things like the Trump ban.

The decentralized web is the world wide web, and the decentralized tech you're referring to is just a shrunken facsimile of the real thing. Facebook is just the most popular "node" on the decentralized web, if the masses switched over to some ActivityPub social network history would just repeat itself whenever the most popular node bans someone popular.
>Anonymity seems to just bring the worst out of people (that's not a tech problem, that's a human/culture problem).

I'm going to guess you're liberal and think the 'storming' of the capital was the political event of the decade on par with 9/11.

Yet it was all organized in the open on facebook using real names.

Curious how using real names did not stop anyone.

People are willing to do things they believe in that are detrimental to themselves. That is after all why the US exists.

Anonymity is a way for people to say that they want to blow up parliament and get feedback on why it's a good or bad idea before doing it.

It is very confusing to me why the US, a country that hasn't had a real genocide since the 1860s, is taking advice on speech regulation from countries whose last genocide was in the 1940s.
So what’s the solution? Any ideas?
But they are extremely bad with their thermals and Intel is way slower than whatever AMD is pushing right now. The thing is Apple just made quite mediocre hardware. And now they're back where the competition is.
Do you disagree? Care you finish your thought?
This is probably similar to the debate between management and engineers at Intel. As an outside observer who has never been near CPU design let alone process engineering - TSMC's nomenclature smacks of moving the goal post to claim a win. Despite the reality that from a process engineering standpoint decoupling the "transistor size" from the production node is an improvement and allowed TSMC to ship a technically superior process.
Simple: most people charge at night.

Sure, fast charging will add some day-time demand, but it's not much. Cheap night-time pricing keeps the charging demand off-peak.

More even demand curves make generation more economical. It becomes trivial to upgrade distribution where needed.
The "this gets more favourable media attention." definitely implies they're referring to the flurry of media attention towards alt-right removals we've been seeing
