>If you cannot censor away opinions, if suppression of ideas doesn't work then why in exactly these kinds of articles do people bemoan it as dangerous?

I've read a screenshot of some anonymous post that goes like:

"There's a general phenomenon I've noticed on the internet. Any forum with free speech and little to no moderation becomes right wing. Leftist ideas cannot exist without censorship and moderation."

Which I think misreads the situation slightly. When sites censor people, it pushes those censored to other sites. Concentrates them. When all sites censoring have a left bias, both the censored and uncensored areas become echo chambers. Censorship then is segregation, but instead of having water fountains for blacks and whites, you have websites for lefts and rights. The only reason sites like gab and parler exist is because twitter censors.

If you really believe in equal rights and desegregation, you would not censor people based on their diversity of opinions. If you really believe diversity is our strength, then you tolerate diverse opinions, even if you find some of the opinions repugnant.

As the article points out, it's not a question of "should" you censor. It's a question of "can" you censor. Clearly censorship fails in the worst possible way. It further radicalizes both sides. If you read both /r/politics and patriots.win, it's like both groups live in two entirely separate worlds. When you isolate populations their evolutions take separate paths.

And that's how it is ultimately dangerous. Censorship leaves you with two groups of radicals with no common ground. At some point, those two groups meet and that's when bad things happen.
I like the idea and a bit of a twist on the domain selling model. Is it ok to list a domain with site already going and SEO done etc? Or is it purely for domain + new idea

Doesn't that make it worse? If Amazon won't sell a book you can buy it somewhere else. But a copyright holder possesses the government-backed power to restrict anyone from producing a copy. They can restrict the total number of copies in circulation for a very long time.
A friend of mine arrived in the Bay Area from India years ago. As a gay man he wanted to visit the Castro in San Francisco so he hopped on the BART train and went to a stop called Castro (Valley). I think he walked around for a bit wondering what all the fuss was about (Castro Valley is not particularly gay, or interesting at all for that matter).
Well we just saw with covid how it works out if everyone gets to do what they want. Too much freedom is just as harmful as too little.
I would argue the only working model was the ancient Romans', having two leaders, a wartime leader and a 'fair-weather one'. It also requires the population to be grown-up enough to know their freedoms can and should be limited at times for their own good. No wonder why 'full citizenship' was rather limited in Rome.

There is no reason why Apple Pay should be linked to a physical card at all - they can and should work completely independently.
I think you're right. And that it'd take rather much time & inconvenience, for the customers, to in effect "micro manage" payments for individual features, and agree internally about if to spend money on this feature or that feature

At the same time, maybe for some rare & "really big" features, it could be worth the extra administrative work, to pay for that particular feature
> The issue with categorizing gender dysphoria as a mental illness is no different than categorizing homosexuality as a mental illness.

There is a very big difference: a homosexual person is not depressed and inhibited in functioning per sē, and this is why gender identity incongruence absent any gender dysphoria is not classified as an illness.

It is also why depression caused by homosexuality is classified as a mental illness, it simply has no special name in this respect.

> The gender dysphoria is a problem derived from what is effectively a birth defect. If someone had a malformed limb and because this has clear impediments in their life in social and physical terms, they experience depression with their physical condition. We don’t say “oh, your body dysmorphia is a mental illness, you just need therapy”, as not only is that a shit take, but now prosthetics are more viable and advanced.

What does that have to do with anything?

The recommended medical treatment for gender dysphoria is not based on mental therapies, but physical surgeries and hormonal therapies, so I'm not quite sure what you are attempting to imply here.

The simple empirical finding finding has been that genital confirmation surgeries and hormonal therapies have been far more effective at reducing the symptoms of gender dysphoria than any mental talk therapy has ever had, just as with many of depression that are caused by chemical abnormalities in the brain, drugs that remove that abnormality have been found far more effective than talk therapy.

Talk therapy is not a very common remedy that psychiatrists resort to. — it works only for a very select few conditions.

The insert key is consistent, but it’s so far away that it comes with a bunch of typos. I just can’t consistently hit keys that are so far away from the home row.

Same with the Windows home/end for sending the cursor to the beginning/end of line. That entire block of keys is only useful for navigating documents, they’re just unergonomic to use when you’re also typing.

I agree with what you said. Goals per game are comparable to where they were at 15-20 years ago, as well as in the 1950s and 1960s.

Goals are considerably down from the late 1970s and 1980s. Larger goalies are merely properly offsetting the offensive gains made from better sticks and the slap shot, which had temporarily provided a scoring advantage and boosted goals per game.

Rather than it being a problem as implied by the article, larger goalies have balanced the game back out and returned it to where it was.

Two very different points.

Christian book stores can't exclude Hindus from buying their books. One upon a time they could, but that's now illegal.

There is no law saying Christian book stores must stock the Bhagavad Gita.

There's also no law saying Amazon must stock certain books. But there are laws preventing Amazon from excluding certain classes of people as clients.

To your question, the Supreme Court has said that lack of religious neutrality by the Colorado Civil Rights Commission was inappropriate, in such a way that the case should be overturned.
It wouldn't be too difficult to work out which app/site you're using given profiling data on which hosts are contacted during typical runs, and that data can be generalised in cases where the services use multiple names.
Don’t you think that a man claiming to be a woman or vice versa is a detachment from reality that is delusional? And if someone is threatening self harm because other people do not accept their personality or claimed gender, isn’t that a sign of being mentally ill? I don’t mean “mentally ill” as a pejorative, although I understand it can carry that connotation. But I feel the definition plainly and unemotionally applies to such circumstances.

I think trans people deserve safety and equal rights. But I am challenging the oft repeated claim that a “transwoman is a woman” or “transman is a man”. I can see the existence of a third gender, as has been the case in some cultures that have historically identified and acknowledged the existence of trans persons. But the push to reclassify existing genders as “cis”, or erase the existing genders, or conveniently switch between gender and sex when suitable, or erase female spaces like sports, all seem like forced views that are only being heard because of aggressive suppression of any dissenting thought.
This level of knowing oneself is gold. The older you get, the better you get at managing your self and your (sub-optimal, emotional, human) tendencies.

When you are young you may think that you can just adapt to anything (I did). But you often can't. You will be lazy, procrastinate, feel like you deserved a relaxing day, get cranky for (un)known reasons, etc. You will have emotions, and they are not rudimentary things you can ignore because the annoy you from time to time. They are you and they need to be listened to and understood.

This is what experience is to me: Getting to know yourself and riding your own waves of enthusiasm and productivity and knowing when to stop and reflect or seek help or when to accept your shortcomings and move on without shedding tears. To know when you are fooling yourself and know that you will get disappointed in yourself and will develop negative emotions and learn how to avoid that by being more realistic about your abilities (and time management skills).

More an more I accept deep down that I won't be the next president or the next Steve Jobs even though my parents told you I could do anything I set my mind to! And I know that that is ok.
This post’s comment section is rapidly turning into a train wreck, so allow me to help. The highest suicide rate in any cohort of transgender individuals is for those who are not undergoing treatment, which is typically a combination of some or all: hormone therapy, social transitioning, counseling, and surgical interventions.

As far as surgical “regret” is concerned, of all elective procedures, sexual reassignment surgery has the lowest regret rate of all.
The only reason it failed is because there was little incentive to port software away from x86.

Most of us didn't consider writing cross-platform software back then and the few who did were writing software for Unix, not Windows, and that because there wasn't a single dominant OS (Unix was a fuzzy target) and binary architecture you could write for, so you had to think about portability.

Oddly enough, there was a lot of cross-platform work on games in the 80's because the home computer market was very fragmented.

> are merely living a delusion.

How are they not living a delusion?

Do people with other physical dysphorias not live in delusion? Such as when you feel like your arm doesn’t belong to your body and you want it cut off?

The answer that is politically incorrect, but completely obvious to anyone, is that of course those situations are analogous, and if you can reasonably say that one of these groups is deluded, you can say the same about the other one, too.

Except in one situation we employ physical therapy, and in the other mental therapy.

I’ve yet to receive a single explanation as to why this is, other than “experts know better”. No, that’s not good enough.
I'm in agreement with you about this, obviously, but I have the following additional thought.

The word "illness" refers to a disease or disorder. When you have an illness, that means that there is something wrong with you, and you should try to fix it, or seek help to have it fixed. And if it's not a curable illness, it is still generally obvious to everyone, including the person with the illness, that it would be desirable for it to be cured.

Mental illnesses are a bit more complicated, but the same principle still mostly applies. For instance, I have diagnosed major depression. I accept that this is an illness, something wrong with me, that I want to get better, and have taken medication and therapy to help it get better. Some sorts of extreme mental illness that affect how a person interacts with the world (claiming to be Jesus Christ, for example) aside, mental illnesses tend to be much like other illnesses.

For this reason, even if you completely remove all stigma associated with mental illness, it would still be misguided and harmful to say that LGBTQ people have a mental illness. The reason is that this implies that something is wrong with them, and that they should want to change this. This is emphatically not the case for the overwhelming majority of LGBT people.

* LGBT people generally do not want to be cured (with a few exceptions, mostly religious people who believe their identity is "sinful"). The "solution" to discovering that one is LGBT is generally to accept that for what it is.

* Most psychiatric experts agree that LGBT people cannot be cured, but can only repress.

* LGBT identities are not generally harmful to the people who have them (outside of violence and bigotry they receive from others). Trans people often want to modify their bodies, but this comes from dysphoria (which is not the same concept as being transgender), which is arguably similar to an illness - but it's widely accepted that sex reassignment surgery is the best available solution.

In other words, the fact that mental illness currently carries with it a stigma is not the only reason why it's harmful and hurtful to refer to LGBT identities this way. It's also simply inaccurate.
Could you please provide pointers to relevant papers? I'm very interested.

Section 4 is what you want (table 4.3)
Yeah, these are common strategies for I think basically as long as I've watched ice hockey.

Have guy parked in front of the goalie. Keep other players in the attacking zone. Shoot from the blue line. Hope for the puck to hit players/blades along the way in the commotion that will change the direction so late that the goalie doesn't have time to react, but even if not, at least players will block the goalies vision.

Your idea to make it unpleasant to be parked in front of the goalie is also a common "solution" but that's why they place the big players there. :D Some are basically meant for this one position. I now recall "Demolition Man" Tomas Holmström back in the day. He even built special protection for the job, like a special back plate for the constant crosscheckings.

Yes, even if not for this reason, I think the goalie area should be expanded a bit. It always felt too small, like they could seriously disrupt the goalies job before even breaking rules.

Agree on your first comment - my intention was not to add any fuel to the fire, but I think it's unfortunate that this topic is so divisive and that's why I tried my very best to avoid any nuance of opinion in my honest inquiry.

That being said, how can you quantify your response regarding surgical regret in your answer formally?
That’s a speech law, thus it would be a circular argument (I.e. your speech violated a speech law).
Many wide-angle lenses are amenable to reverse mounting, which gives typical magnifications of around 5x or higher. Also, the working distance is almost constant (about the flange distance, so ~40-something mm for SLR lenses) across the range of magnifications, unlike macro lenses where adding extension continually reduces working distance until it gets zero/negative.
Don't worry. A sufficiently powerful AGI won't destroy the universe to satisfy its own goals; it'll just build a holodeck (by tampering with its sensors) so that it can gain +infinity pleasure right away.

Unlike software, which can be mathematically airtight, there's no reason to assume that physical devices built by humans are unexploitable in the face of the massive intelligence of the AGI. So the AGI will just ask itself which is easier: delicately performing surgery on its own sensors, or building tons of nukes.

Honestly, that people are even worried about AGI doomsday shows to me the power of narrative. Everybody has heard of SkyNet and the sorcerer's apprentice, nobody has heard of the AGI who outsmarted itself by creating digital porn for its objective function. Therefore, through the miracle of the availability heuristic, AGI doomsday it is.

> Vegan shop is expected to not sell meat.

No, the vegan shop HAS DECIDED to not sell meat. They could just as easily decide to sell parma ham to worthy customers and stop being an exclusively vegan shop.

Do you think that 7-11 is "expected" to not sell eggplant parm too? Why not? They already sell pizza and taquitos. But I don't get to make them sell eggplant parm if they don't want to even though eggplant parm would go great with taquitos.

> Global shop which sells almost everything is expected to not decide to not sell something because they not like it

Ok, so, 94 countries have no criminal legislation prohibiting slavery according to https://theconversation.com/slavery-is-not-a-crime-in-almost.... So should Amazon, the global seller of everything, also sell slaves in those countries? I mean if they're expected to not decide to not sell something because they don't like it, surely the answer must be yes.
I didn't call you racist or sexist. And you brought up "white male" in your post I replied to.

Historically speaking, there was bo group more privileged than white, European males. Being one myself, I don't see anything wrong with simply acknowledging that simple fact.
Reminds me of that one Black Mirror episode
That's a great trick, I'm going to steal it! I tend to naturally go somewhat depth-first instead of breadth-first, and the quality of my idea generation often depends on how much working memory I have, and how big is the canvas on which I put my notes (I really like my infinite virtual whiteboard on my sidearm computer).

The split also applies to developing code. I've learned to switch quickly between two modes: I either focus on typing code, or on architecture/design decisions. When I coding is getting hard - I feel lost, unsure about what to write - I switch to design mode. When I feel I have something conceptually sound and my brain doesn't want to generate more ideas, I switch back to coding. This can happen multiple times per day. The point is to be always working in the mode that's easier to make progress in at a given moment.

It's probably an obvious technique to many, but I've worked with people who struggled with making these switches - they tried to power through coding even though it turned spaghetti, or considered "design phase" to be something Big to be done seldomly and up front. But it's wrong. The mode switch isn't a big deal - preserving the context in your head is. I solve that by writing down any outstanding thoughts before mode-switching. Often as a string of //TODO //FIXME //NOTE in code.

To me precise about ctrl-c being default of the terminal meant in this context: it's the default of the Linux kernel tty driver. Which is a different thing from the terminal emulation program. So stty manipulates the kernel tty settings with system calls without involvement of the terminal emulation program like xterm or gnome-terminal. And what interprets the ^C / ^G in this case is also the kernel.

We're also live on ProductHunt! https://www.producthunt.com/posts/candid-resumes

For the last few months, our team of Stanford engineers have been piloting our algorithms with our early customers(Google, BCG, FB, and more) on this exciting project. We've already helped them resume screen 500,000+ resumes and save thousands of hours.

We know the growth pains of scaling companies and staffing recruiting teams to source and filter applicants. ATS systems like Greenhouse and Lever require tons of manual work to review all of the applicants. Plus, recruiters need to be well trained and experienced to prioritize the right applicants. Candid resolves this by automating the entire applicant filtering process with our resume grading system that companies can fine-tune to their own priorities. On average, our clients report 95% time savings for recruiting.

Does it actually work? You can take our algorithms for a test run! Try the live demo on our website and upload your resume. ([app.candidresumes.com](http://app.candidresumes.com/)) Discover how big companies see you.
