I can’t speak to the ocarina but a violin??? It’s an instrument infamous for screechy off sounds. Those are caused by unexpected friction on the strings amplifying or even making harmonics dominant. The most prominent sound wave may mimic a sawtooth because of the mechanics of a bow (I don’t know, just trusting you on this), but every bit of loose fiber on the bow and every inconsistency in rosin and every physical variation on the surface of the string can produce harmonics before any sound hits the curves of the body, which produces yet more.

People have felt so unheard they've taken to the streets in violence. We've seen riots all through the last year up to and including the incident on Jan 6. When people feel unheard it reliably leads to violence. That is why, when it comes to my eyes and dollars, I support platforms that support free speech. In different times I might lean towards freedom of association.
Not quite for no good reason at all. For someone else who programmed them to do this, it is for a very self-servingly good reason of data vacuuming obsession, it just happens to be no good reason for the customer.
I share your frustration. But that's really not how elected reps work. Those particularly interested, or with relevant committee appointments, may read the executive summary.

It is liberal, in the sense that absolute liberty is anarchy is chaos is degeneracy is suffering.

Non-degenerates know that long lasting liberty comes with responsibility, and that responsibility is moderation and correction.

The far right operates in degeneracy. They may fly the banner of freedom but they fly it alongside nazi flags so what do symbols and ideals even mean for them.
I have no idea what they are doing but it sucks. I have in many occasions found that making a call using WhatsApp works much better - both in quality and latency - than making a phone call. Phone lines are so atrociously bad, they've put me off from doing a voice call unless it's absolutely necessary.
Fair, however the people telling you that have a price.

heh, makes me want to go to a code camp now. I've got ~7 years professional(?), ~11 years hobby, experience at two medium sized companies. Spent my years reinventing a ton of things, and know a fair amount of oddities on how to get things done. Combine that with a passion for idiomatic, standards, maintainable code and .. i think i'd be a decent hire.

I hope the Edge team never merges this in.
This sounds wise, but I would bet that for the same amount of effort, "just rewriting everything in Rust" will give a better return than the kind of process you're advocating.
I don't think this is a fair characterization. A lot of the biggest critics of cancel culture today (Sam Harris, Bret Weinstein, Bill Maher, etc) are moderate liberals who also criticized the right-wing Christian fundamentalist cancel culture of the Bush era. It's not hypocrisy, they really have been in favor of free speech the whole time.

Value isn't just a one dimensional thing where some business endeavours create less value or more value. There are different kinds of value that have different utility in different contexts.

Once you have that epiphany you can see that creating value for yourself and the people around you is a form of directing culture and vice-versa.
A few online sites give free yet intriguing stuff to understudies. Nonetheless, they need to check their understudy status by joining with a specifically.edu email address.

Article aside, a pet peeve of mine... I feel like it's often gaming sites like this one that have the most obtuse cookie banners.

> This website uses cookies to improve your experience. We'll assume you're ok with this, but you can opt-out if you wish.

First off, assuming consent and saying it's "to improve your experience." Maybe they're not doing any targeting... nope, wait, they're loading tracking pixels. And their privacy policy says they use cookies to "...help customize our marketing offerings."

Okay, now how about opting out? Click "Read More" which takes you to... their privacy policy. Some sites at least bury information about how to disable browser cookies entirely in their privacy policy. Here even that is nowhere to be found; no mention of how you could prevent their cookies from being set in your browser at all. (Setting aside the fact that disabling cookies globally in your browser is so obviously not a sane way to avoid tracking on a single site, so even that would be woefully insufficient.)

I can only assume folks in the EU are seeing something that actually asks for consent, because this would be so far from compliance over there it's not even funny. Hoping the US gets real online privacy laws soon.

> You can opt-out if you wish.

No, practically speaking, you cannot.
It’s incredible that supporting free speech is considered to be only important enough to the “far right” now to be worth marketing to. Free speech used to be something all Americans supported and defended.

America once had a very finite number of publishers who were the primary gate keepers for what published. America suppressed the works of Wilhelm Reich and Henry Miller. America once arrested members of the IWW for engaging in street corner soapbox speak-outs [1]. America engaged in anti-socialist repression on a fairly large scale.[2] It's common to reference an imaginary free speech fundamentalist era somewhere in the US past but, sorry, it's not there.

And, of course, the extreme right only pretend to be true free speech fundamentalists - Note how the dropped Milo Yiannopoulos when his speech offended them.

What does that have to do with the subject at hand?
That's not exactly what happened. "they give you a credit at purchase time" https://twitter.com/dcurtis/status/1366579549610381320

What happened is that when Apple did not receive the trade-in, they added a charge to the card for the amount of the credit.

Anyway, the important point you're missing is that if Apple was dealing with a Chase card, Apple would not be out any money, because Chase pays Apple for any charges to the card. You're conceiving of a scenario where Apple doesn't get all of its money, and that's simply not the case with a third-party credit card.

Now if Apple and Goldman Sachs operated in the same manner, then Apple would also get all of the money it was owed, from Goldman Sachs, and then it would be up to Goldman Sachs to get payment from Dustin, which is no concern of Apple's. But apparently Apple and Goldman Sachs have a different kind of relationship with the Apple Card.

It appears that Apple is using its iCloud leverage to force the card holder to pay Goldman Sachs. Apple would have no such leverage to force the card holder to pay Chase, nor would Apple have any desire to use such leverage for Chase, because Apple is not "in bed", so to speak, with Chase.
Sorry, but... it's not the same thing Google and Facebook are doing from the last forever?
I wonder if this feature request might get attention soon: https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=12654
"Free speech" in these instances means bigotry and calls to violence. Also, we're talking about private businesses here, you can't be that naive.

Probably one of the network protocols underlying the web. Maybe TLS with X.509 certs and the whole CA structure? Or DNS, or SMTP which are also distributed by design.

If it’s something trendier we’re looking for, might be Kubernetes.

From far enough away, every consumer application is a distributed system, not just the obvious ones like G Docs, but also Twitter, Amazon, Netflix.

So I guess it depends on your scope! The computing world is much more distributed (albeit not decentralized) today than it was in ‘94.
Not OP but I assume because it kind of defets the purpose of IPFS. IPFS is all about links that refer to content and not location, a cloudflare link is now back to a location and when the cf mirror goes down, the link will be broken.

But its also the only way normal users can see the content.

I think you might want to listen to them more closely, I can't answer on their behalf.

If, by chance, they're anything like me, then I agree that there's giant categories of prohibited speech that should remain so. Lying about medicine, slander, libel, incitement to violence to name a few.
Personally, I consider pro-censorship comments to be low-quality.

"Break into Congress and kill the swamp creatures". This is a quote from Parler, and this is known as incitement, which is often illegal. The first amendment does not apply to child porn for obvious reasons, but it also doesn't apply to threats of violence, which isn't so obvious to everyone.

To make this obvious, this is not a free speech issue.

Good points. In the mean time you can read what Akka and Erlang are. They are both actor based systems. From a quick glance that is what Bastion is as well.

Resilience to what exactly? Is the report suggesting the country holding the 'keys' is hostile?
Gab and Parler basically just attracted extremist views which is why you see them being portrayed like that. Anything less than that is typically accepted or debated by more left leaning circles. Democrats cover a wide spectrum of society, from the far left to folks considered what republicans used to be 20 years ago in terms of the policies supported.

Isn’t DDoSecrets basically working with the hackers by hosting/evangelizing/distributing their illegally acquired data? It’s also amazing to me that all those involved with it and the prior Parler hack are allowed to remain on Twitter without even a label on hacked materials, let alone a ban for clear illegal activity. Double standards.
freedom of association isn't really a thing anymore; if one were to promote that maxim, a large portion of the civil rights laws, anti-discrimination laws, etc. just become unenforceable.

I appreciate the sarcasm.

The US is facing the realities caused by somewhere in the order of 50 years of incompetence in government at nearly every level. This isn’t going to change any time soon.

While we have been busy de-educating our new generations and worshiping idiots like Bernie and AOC, the Chinese worked hard and went from an agricultural society to the second economy in the world.

Well done!

A line from Star Wars comes to mind:

I hadn't heard of this before, so maybe I am missing some context here, but something seems fishy:

> Steam is one of the listed platforms of commercialization in the contract between Frogwares and Nacon. But since the release of the game, Nacon’s unlawful actions have forced Frogwares to defend its property and react in front of the French Justice for lack of payments, attempts to steal our IPs, etc which we made a public letter about back in August 2020.

Here's the previous statement from Nacon:

https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/750130/view/30584784...

I can't find any of the details about Nacon's unlawful actions, and it seems Frogware is being intentionally vague. Doing some digging, it seems like this is almost a complete retread of a legal battle they had before:

https://twinfinite.net/2019/09/frogwares-games-delisted-alle...

It seems like they may have a history of playing a copyright game with publishers - take their money to develop a game, then use legal trickery to take back the property outright.

In this case Nacon may have felt they had a "mechanic's lien" on the code and felt justified stealing it back outright (probably a bad choice in the long run). But regardless, I don't get the sense that Frogwares is completely being on the up and up about the relationship with their exes.

Update: Frogwares has a much more detailed list of grievances here: https://frogwares.com/the-sinking-city-is-being-delisted-her... Some seem petty and some seem serious. But it still leaves questions. How much did Nacon already pay Frogwares? Does Frogwares plan on paying it back?

> The agreement is, therefore, terminated without further formality. Moreover, on July 17, 2020, Nacon attempted to oppose the termination in court, but the judge rejected the demand, and the contract is now terminated in the eyes of the law.

Maybe French law is much weirder than ours, but this phrasing would be highly suspect in the US. You would get a really affirmative ruling that you are still bound by contract or not.
Some of these top brokers have already started to bail. They've also cut back on their Compass Concierge service, which is just an interest-free loan for sellers to dress up their homes. Guess all that Softbank cash is starting to run out...

Interestingly, exact same phenomenon occurs in speech. What is the difference between the sounds /a/ and /o/? Turns out it’s timbre and that our vocal cavities changing form changes the timbre while the vocal chords produce the same fundamental frequency.
There are now efforts to turn computers into C Machines with hardware memory tagging.

While Intel's MPX extensions were a failure, Solaris makes use of ADI on SPARC, iOS uses PAC, Google is researching adopting ARM MTE into Android, ARM sponsors CHERI with Morello project, Azure Sphere has Plutonium, and so forth.

However these are all pontual efforts, and their large scale effects will take years or decades to start making a difference.
I contracted with a big-4 consulting firm on an acquisition of a demergered business and the program had to set up a "one of everything" IT shop and demerge and migrate the data. The program had us coordinating and 4-5 other vendors delivering bits of it. I was there for a year (the program ran for another year+). At the time I left, the Jira count was over 35,000 - though that also included risks, decisions, issues and less common issue types. They probably got close to 100K by the time they were done.

I don't know if "progress" was measured by Jira tickets, but I'm sure it helped some to justify the extortionate rates we charged.

Further, I’m not sure if there’s a good paper for it, but the Gossip protocols are another fun rabbit hole.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gossip_protocol

It’s one of those beautiful ideas that isn’t practical for Serious Work™ (i.e. centralized computation), because it’s hard to make SLA-style guarantees about a system that communicates by gossip.

But it does seem to mimic nature in that while it’s not optimal for performance it’s quite robust to things like highly dynamic connectivity between nodes. Maybe one day it’ll have practical value, when the world is a bit more decentralized! :)
Because the American mainstream left became bananas. The Democratic and Republican parties would still be right-wing/conservative all across the world except in America, but the woke/sjw/faang crowd is socially hard-left also all across the world (not in economics or international politics, they are very conservative there,even hawkish). So, for example, me, a very leftist third world person has now more in common with your average mid-westerner republican than with a coastal google employee.

Everyone supports free speech. Everyone also supports moderation. All liberty comes with moderation else we have chaos.

Imagine someone talking loudly outside your window all night. You’d have laws made about public disturbances. Would you then be a freedom hating communist? I don’t know about that.

Now if you also have a forum where you’d like to have more family friendly conversations. Would you welcome the Nazi hatemongerer? I would think you’d moderate them out.

Imagine you have a church, and an atheist disturbs your mass by shrieking god doesn’t exist. Would you escort them out?

This is so basic to me that I can’t believe people have a hard time grasping something so obvious. I can’t help but think they are being disingenuous.
Those stories are there to lengthen the time someone is on the page, a SEO tactic. To me, the reader, they are infuriating....
> Note that my tutorial uses the AT&T assembly language syntax instead of Intel syntax.

This makes me curious: how widely used is the AT&T syntax these days? I could easily be wrong, but my impression was that most work is done in the Intel syntax.

This may be ignorance on my part, as the Intel syntax is all I've ever used on Intel processors. I've coded in a dozen other assembly languages for various processors, but Intel chips seem to be the only ones with two different assembly language syntaxes, right down to the source/destination order.
I will defend to the death someone’s right to hold and speak any beliefs, ideas, or opinions no matter how controversial or unorthodox.

What I will not defend is someone who knowingly speaks untruths or uses language as a weapon with the intent to hurt others. Just because it uses mouth sounds doesn’t make something speech.

If you think homosexuals are an abomination and an affront to god then you’re free to believe that and tell everyone you know. But that doesn’t mean you should be allowed to shout f*g at a gay person on the street. Only the former is speech, the latter is hate.
> if Apple was dealing with a Chase card, Apple would not be out any money, because Chase pays Apple for any charges to the card

The number of messages on Parler that had content like that was probably very limited. You’re cherry picking one message on a platform with double digit millions of users to paint a certain picture. But let’s not forget about all the violence in BLM riots over the last year, much of which was organized and popularized on social media platforms like Twitter or Facebook, who all get a pass.

And yes it is a free speech issue when several companies that have left leaning cultures and leaders take concurrent actions to block a right leaning platform that mostly carries fully legal speech.

So all overtones are harmonics. All harmonics except the fundamental are overtones?

Edit: I never realized the fundamental was a harmonic. I thought all harmonics had to be above the fundamental. I thought the overtones were the multiples (e.g. higher octaves) and harmonics were other intervals produced by the instrument (organs being the most extreme example and maybe oboe being the least)

If my auto pay information changed for my Apple Card today and became invalid, I would still be able to charge my card a year from today because I have no outstanding balance to pay. Failure to have valid auto pay is necessary but not sufficient.

In addition, you still seem to overlook the fact that every other credit card on the market can also fail to post a transaction even if it authorizes, given sufficient time between the two events.
