A third class plays using a consensus model based on explicit relationships of trust.

Each student keeps track of which of the others they consider trustworthy. Since they all play together everyday, they know who is nice, and who is naughty.

When a supermajority trusts the student placing a new block, that student is allowed to place it anywhere.

When not enough people trust the student placing the block, they prevent that person from doing so. That person may try again, but until they're willing to play nice and act trustworthy, they cannot place any blocks. They sit in the corner and pout until they come to their senses.

No one has to solve any puzzles, or roll any dice.

The tower is built efficiently, and all sorts of interesting designs are made by the creative energy that would have otherwise been wasted on busywork.

Xonotic [0] is an amazing game if you're into quake style arena shooters. It's a fast paced multiplayer shooter and like 0 A. D. also OSS.

Easiest to get up to speed in the "minstagib" or "instagib" mode, where basically one shot kills and "bullets" arrive at their target instantly. Once you're familiar with the mechanics, the other modes are quite fun, too.

Sky ECC platform remains secure and our authorized devices have not been hacked.

There have been recent news articles that claim Sky ECC has been hacked and is involved in criminal activity. This information is not accurate. We have looked into these claims and discovered that a small group of individuals illegally created and distributed an unauthorized version of Sky ECC which they modified and side-loaded onto unsecure devices. Security features that come standard with the Sky ECC phones were eliminated in these bogus devices.

Sky ECC considers these actions as malicious and we are taking legal action against these individuals for defamation and fraud.

We have also blocked these users from our system and enhanced security to prevent reoccurrence of this issue. The implementation of these enhancements temporarily interrupted our Sky ECC service which has now been re-established.

We continue to stand by our position and our product. We strongly support that people have the fundamental right to privacy. With the extensive and broadly documented rise worldwide of corporate espionage, cybercrime and malicious data breaches, systems like SKY ECC are the foundation of the effective functioning for many industries including legal professionals, public health providers and vaccine supply chains, celebrities, manufacturers and many more.

We believe that the individual right to privacy is paramount for those who are acting within the law and we do not condone the use of our product for criminal activity. We also have our Terms of Service that every user must adhere to and, provided that they do, our company will work feverishly to protect their rights with the world's most secure platform.

So, how do we find out when they put it on display at Ely Cathedral?
Forget for a minute who won't get through the "broken tech interviews" and instead consider the types of bad hires that could get through these filters:

- Take-home LeetCode: poor communication skills, bad at workflows, unpleasant personality, poor architecture, write-only, cheaters.

- Live LeetCode: same as take-home LeetCode but at least they have communication skills and aren't cheating so you know they can write efficient functions.

- Resume: all the issues with take-home LeetCode.

- Culture fit/behavioral: all the issues of take-home LeetCode, but at least they're good at communication and have a good personality.

- Take-home project: same as take-home Leetcode but instead of efficient functions you know they can at least architect and implement a small, standard application (if they didn't cheat).

- Show me your side project: Same as take-home project, plus they might work extremely slowly, and might only be passionate about that one side project, but you know they have communication skills.

- Architecture whiteboarding: can't actually code to implement the systems they're drawing, but you know they have communication skills.

So it's no surprise that companies wanting to reduce the risk of a costly bad hire (a bad fit, not necessarily a bad person) evaluate the candidate from different angles to check for red flags.

I sympathize with the frustration of those who present false negatives and are filtered out despite actually being a good fit, for example working parents who can't spend a whole weekend polishing a take-home project.

IMO *chan's are still the best way to handle this, especially when you can expand inline. You maintain the linear flow of conversation, and linearity maintains its status in the foreground, but you can optionally expand into other the conversation history through repeated expansion (and following various trees)

Organization like in the TFA just totally fucks up the flow of conversation, and totally ignores the fact that conversation is a graph, not a tree, and you naturally want to hop between conversation topics freely. You want to cross-post.

Not to mention that AFAICT just totally ignores tangents-within-tangents, a perfectly normal model of communication.

The fundamental problem though TFA is solving really is the treatment of persons-involved as defining a conversation, rather than the topic of conversation itself; The article has really just recreated BBS thread topics, with permissions scoped to a group of users.
If you are going to try to put it in perspective, do it right.

They are, for their own personal gain, using deceit to affect the behavior of others in a way that can cause harm to them.

It is fraud.

Just because each incident is a small scale, does not mean that it is not corrosive to society. Moreover, the point of the article is that this IS being done at scale, and scaled-up fraud is definitely corrosive to society. At the very least, it undermines trust in society, which is a prerequisite to a functioning society. Stop trying to minimize it.

Having to make a living is no excuse to perpetrate fraud. If the business, or their fake reviewers need to perpetrate fraud to make a living, they should do something else.
Too bad about the crappy license.
IANAL, but I'm pretty sure that straight out lying about having customers in order to make your product seem better than it is is actually illegal, it feels like it should be covered by the following law in Germany (German):

I would classify it as a dishonest practice, and it would be illegal.

Not a direct reply to anything in the thread, but I felt it's fairly on-topic to point out something I just realized with myself on seeing the n+1st headline and now wonder how long ago my default reaction evolved to this.

Watching the ever-normalizing review gaming and incentives to _not_ fix them, I am well past caring about finding out a business has bought a review.

My favorite local tasting room? I imagine they have the resources to invest in gaming, but I figure they'd stand their ground as long as possible out of a sense of integrity (and I would appreciate them all the more for this). Either way, good for them; I hope to enjoy many more years of their service[0].

My favorite m&p hole-in-the-wall? They don't exactly have a line out the door of raving, excited customers. And, I don't think they have the financial means to play ball. I root for them all the same.

Yes, whenever you talk to a Chinese apologist about Tibet, the pre-1950 theocracy always gets trotted out.

Well, true, but that still does not give you a right to invade and rule another nation.
We can't attribute any meaning to your post unless you tell us your gender.
Love your rhetoric! Move the meaning of the words White until it bares no resemblance to the original intention and then point out it has no resemblance.

Your imaginary line encompasses a tiny proportion of “white”.

So, please comment on what the civil rights act was doing, or the “White Australia Policy” without making any racial reference? What did Australia even mean by “White”!? Last I checked both those countries were democracies and those policies (or lack there of) were voted on... so which people couldn’t participate? Oh yeah the people of colour! Because they were excluded.

The elite in all of the colonialist countries are still White... in America, they are White, in Australia they are White, despite both countries having an exclusively non-White population before colonisation. Until recently it was the case in places like Hk and Singapore... White isn’t my term, it’s theirs. Go to China where there are signs like “whites only, no yellow!” On the old colonial buildings. Or South Africa or Australia with specific reference to whites and “non-whites”. Or Jim Crow in the US... like which make believe world are you talking about?
And I personally can't wait to see what amazing things the creators of these component systems will land on next...

Next.js is pretty corporate-friendly. Very easy to split things up and have many folks and teams working on monoliths or services with it.
Do they forbid using the code, or incorporating the code into their own works? I hear of places forbidding the use of GPL code (even in-house) where they use proprietary software like Microsoft Word with no worries.
Interesting that there aren't currently measures in place to account for the location of both parties in a case involving domestic abuse.

The prosecution had a great eye to notice and police were quick to respond. The prosecutor's facepalm when the defendent comes back online on the victims phone is just icing on the cake.

The judge seems completely blown away that this is able to happen too, hopefully there will be an investigation into how hearings are held and measures put in place to account for the locations of both parties to prevent this happening again.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_Nations_resolut...

> As of 2013, Israel had been condemned in 45 resolutions by the United Nations Human Rights Council. Since the creation of the Council in 2006, it has resolved almost more resolutions condemning Israel than on the rest of the world combined. The 45 resolutions comprised almost half (45.9%) of all country-specific resolutions passed by the Council

So Israel, a tiny nation, received almost half of all condemnations by HRC. Far more than nations like China, Russia, and Syria, which are currently involved in human rights violations on a massive scale, including (in the case of Syria) genocide by using WMDs against civilian population.

It's abundantly clear that Israel is singled out for "special treatment", and when you see Neo Nazis in Germany protesting in favor of BDS, it's also abundantly clear why:

https://www.haaretz.com/world-news/.premium-why-neo-nazis-lo...

The "moral argument" against Israel is laced with Antisemitic bias through and through, and it's not particularly hard to see when top comments even in this discussion are talking about the "many dirty tricks" used by Israeli Jews as a group.

Transnistria, Yugoslavia, Georgia, Ukraine. Not really peaceful.

As an Israeli civilian I say: if you hear rockets explode you chose a wrong city to live at.

You have to understand that Gaza is kind of concentration camp and significant portion of Gaza population are arabs forcefully displaced from villages in Gaza-Ashdod-BeerSheba triangle. Do you expect them to just agree with "facts on the ground" and do nothing?

Genuine question: is there example of good looking UI that also provide good UX?

I'm amazed at how big companies, with UX designers and researchers being paid big salaries, seems to produce confusing designs.

Is it because management is pushing "shinyness" at all cost or is it because what works in terms of UX doesn't look "sleek" enough?
It's hard not to watch something like that and wonder which of today's everyday items people in 80 years will look back at and yell, "No! Don't touch it!".
In context, I think it’s as fair to call it bullshit as to claim it as a truth.

It was being claimed as a truth to rebut the implications a peer reviewed study, but without any data to support it.
And there's also a 24 hour full pay-per-view option available for 2.4 EUR.
Forgive me, but that’s a pretty one sided view to take.

The local Jewish population was certainly instrumental as were Zionist groups in the UK and elsewhere. But you’re fooling yourself if you think great power diplomacy and the region’s colonial history weren’t also important factors.

I’d encourage you to look into the history of the British mandate, the Balfour Declaration, and the lead up to the 1947 Partition Plan/1948 War. It’s a fascinating story if nothing else.
It is very hard to parse your comment, a bit better formatting may help I guess?
> Why can't Pine64 make $400 pinebook pros?

Money: Pine64 is a small operation with limited resources, factories have minimum order quantities among other commitments.

Most Pine64 products have pre-alpha software and are aimed at volunteers who can improve it. Lots of people are willing to buy a product for <$150 and "see how it goes". $400 filters out a lot of people who might otherwise chip-away at software bugs on weekends. Additionally, people are less tolerant of dead pixels on a $400 laptop, and Pine64 would rather not deal with returns.
Because people interested in bias, are only interested when the bias is in other direction.

As far as the ISO is concerned, IT business is just one of many businesses for which they manage the standards process. ISO has to pay the bills somehow, don’t they? If they would not charge the users of the standards the bill would go to governments (effectively taxpayers). As far as taxpayers are concerned, if the industry needs standards, they should pay for them themselves. There is merit to the argument that free standards stimulate innovation, but if governments subsidize the industry, they will prefer to subsidize their national industry, not world wide.
You make a fair point, it is merely a hack to evade a silly rule. Since facts are not copyrightable the "right fix" is to right an identical standard and make that free, then have people adhere to it rather than the ISO one.

That said, I'm pretty sure I could find 800 people who would critique the typography :-). Each usage would be a page that says, "Look at this random page from a standard (page <xxx> by the way), do those serifs really help anything? How is it even readable with the way they break the text in their paragraphs."
Those like me who want peace want to ensure that nations which attack other nations lose land when they do so.

Germany after WWI lost Alsace-Lorraine to France.
After WWII Germany lost Upper Silesia to Poland.
After WWII Japan lost Sakhalin Island to Russia.

Arabs and Palestinians repeatedly attacked Israel, a country resurrected from 2000 years ago. Visitors to Israel can go to the Temple Mount in Jerusalem and see the ruins of the 2nd Temple which was destroyed by the Romans.

In 1948 the Palestinians and 7 Arab nations followed the leadership of "The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem" who had spent WWII as a guest of Hitlers's in Berlin.

> look at thepiratebay, how long have people been trying to take that website down

Taking down piratebay servers is fundamentally different from launching a 51% attack on Bitcoin. In the former, any mirror of the site that is left up can serve for everyone that wants to visit it. In a 51% attack on Bitcoin, any node running Bitcoin software would recognize the attack chain as valid, so everyone would have to make a coordinated effort to change their clients to fight back.

> you can never really know where a mining operation is located (proxies are really easy to set up today)

[1] here, by the way, is a project from cambridge that tracks IP addresses connecting to pools and says that 65% come from China.

It's not clear to me why one would go to the trouble of setting up a proxy to mine bitcoin, especially when speed of connectivity might be the difference between your block getting included or failing to get included. And if all these miners are going through proxies, why set them up in China specifically, when many other countries don't have laws against bitcoin mining?

Any questionable extensions?
Modern progressivism has apparently solved that issue already.

I'll demonstrate:

Whenever statistics show an imbalance that benefits men, say in earnings, prestigious jobs, or positions of leadership, then the modern worldview dictates that this must be a result of a nefarious bias on the part of society or men as a group, aka "the patriarchy".

On the other hand, whenever the statistics show an imbalance that benefits women, such as sentencing/incarceration rates, suicide rates, or academic performance, it seems that often people are satisfied with an explanation that says the disparity is due to some innate behavioral difference in men. Occasionally, in the case of poor academics or crime rates among men you'll hear justifications along the lines of "men do worse here because of patriarchal social norms that ultimately end up hurting them", which in my opinion is a statement that subtly implies that these men's misfortune is their own fault.

Also in some cases you see outright deflection; bring up how women generally make better grades than men, and how they outnumber men by nontrivial amounts at universities? The response it "well, better education doesn't necessarily translate into better employment for women". Bring up the substantially higher male suicide rate? You'll often hear "well actually women attempt suicide more often, but use less effective methods" - and that's supposed to be the end of the conversation, as though attempting suicide with a bottle of pills (where you could still wake up in the hospital surrounded by family and friends) has the same sort of finality as shooting yourself in the head or jumping in front of a train.
