Cryptocurrency might have made it easier, but such scams are older than that. Just look at the whole range of tech support scams based on voucher codes.
Like any jobs, your existing network will be best. Outside of that, I usually point people to https://github.com/lukasz-madon/awesome-remote-job which is a pretty good resource and should help you find what you are looking for.

I have never used Indeed in my life, but that may be more personal preference as I find job reqs there to be boring, underpaid, and not what I'm actually looking for.

Running an ad network is fairly expensive on its own if you want any value out of it. You need targeting, campaign management, some sort of bidding auction, CTR/CVR prediction models (or some sort of intelligent targeting), fraud detection models, reviewing ads, page exclusions, etc. All of this at massive scale.

We should measure harm and then fine the businesses that spread the harm.

Maybe, but this has nothing to do with deepfakes, and can be generalized.

Societies should teach people to recognize and deal with mis- and disinformation, rather than provide them faulty assumptions upon which to base their trust.

German man loses 400k GBP about  $500k in Twitter Bitcoin scam
Life is a balance between doing what you love and getting paid enough to live.

Your pay is a tool. Use your tool to cause the impact you are looking to make. So if you donate half your income to a charity that supports a cause you care about. Then you are using your skills for something you feel is good.

Alternatively start working for a cause you care about, you will take a significant pay cut.
Wikimedia linked this article in their official announcement, so I guess that's their way of saying they agree with this narrative.
Your comment is based on two assumptions:

- That backdoors are routinely detectable in closed-source applications. They are not just "not easily" detectable, they are impossible to detect without a good amount of luck, and even so, the knowledge about a new backdoor will come after years, after all of the damage was done. Numerous discovered RCEs in Windows, some of which laid there for more than a decade after being found, confirm this.

- That there are incentives for security researchers to routinely disassemble WhatsApp binary and provide results of their inspection to the public, and not just report to employers or use the knowledge about a Facebook-authored backdoor to blackmail Facebook. There are none.

If you discard these two assumptions, you can see that Telegram model is better because it gives users clear choice between passing data to Telegram (in exchange for chat sync) and using E2E, with strong guarantees of E2E that are backed by reproducible builds, not by trusting Facebook or "oh, but that would be a scandal". The "almost useless" E2E of Telegram (I don't see how it's almost useless, it's there, it's working, and it provides value for users) is better than the completely useless E2E of WhatsApp.

(But yeah, group chats have no option of E2E in Telegram, that sucks.)

I wonder if this style of profile picture will simply go out of fashion. When someone who's not obviously well known has this close-up nondescript professional shot on regular social media, I check it out to see if it's a fake. 95% of the time there are obvious artifacts. It's already so slanted to a point where people make themselves look fake by using this style rather than the other way around.

This is quickly becoming the "cant yell fire" meme of the 2020's. hell I bet you even believe that meme dont you even though it is been rebutted for decades and universally cited as bad case law?

The "Mah private company" defense is flawed on many levels and you should really stop using

1. Just because they have the right to do it, does not mean people should not criticize them for it. Simply stating they "have the right" is meaningless and does not add anything of value to the conversation

2. There is a overlapping and complex set of principles and laws at play here. There are many avenues that can be explored from a legal front when they ban a company from selling their product on their walled garden, even outside of the Anti-Trust issues there is also contract laws that can be used, and even Deceptive Trade regulations given the uneven standard that their policies are applied.

So it is not as simple as say "Well there are a private company they can do what they want" The law, and society is far more complex than that, and it is time for people to stop using this useless platitude as a defense of bad actions
Yeah, this more akin to "I'm gonna drink some paint and throw up on a large piece of paper and call it `Naked lady descending`".
This is a strange leap from a (partially true) incel talking point that monogamy is a force for the sexual equivalent of “income distribution” (incels objectify it too much; attractiveness doesn’t really match that well to the [0,10] segment of the real line) by to polyamory, which is a sort of fringe culture. If you look at your HBD/manosphere/whatever sources — I haven’t seen any of that since Nick Land’s blog went silent — you’ll see the word “hypergamy”, which is what you’re thinking of.

Like many things usually dismissed as deplorable because they’re uncomfortable, incel culture is built on some kernels of truth, but the whole edifice is shaky, not true as a whole and not helpful psychologically. It’s really best not to dwell on these things, try to expose yourself to social situations and try to be happy. I’m not genetically arranged so to be a top runner but running is fun. Losing is fun if you just go for things without expectations.
International Space Station Traffic
Yeah. I never played this game, but the EGA scenes feel evocative and the VGA ones don't. Similar to the Loom discussion the other day.

Mostly it feels like the EGA artist was better at dramatic lighting. For example, in the EGA version of the dead templar, the neck area is pure black for a reason: it makes the skull, the focal point of the image, stand out more. But in the VGA version they decided to paint something there, so the image became less focused.
Sure, but this is a remake, not an emulation of an old game. It does not need to try to reproduce the old style, rather it should work with what we have now.
You need a certain amount of competition before a market can give you a "reasonable" price. The market for phone app stores doesn't meet this bar.
This is pointless. The insecure nerds at Google need to get with the times instead of abusing their power like this to maintain their status. If you work at Google your wife will eventually have a boyfriend. Unless you want to be treated like a barbarian it's something you need to accept. Her body, her choice. Stop trying to control who your partner can have sex with.
There's no doubt a conspiracy. What is the conspiracy though? Confirming the stories only hurts their viewership. Enhancing or extending stories isn't happening.

The answer is that the media lost the vietnam war. The conspiracy is that the government/swamp controls these media outlets.

Any dictator would admire the uniformity and obedience of the U.S. media. - Noam Chomsky

The USA has been at war longer than it ever has been. Afghanistan war has now lasted longer than the vietnam war. Yet where are the counterculture protests to end all these wars? The USA is in 5 wars and looks to be headed toward starting a new war.

Yet which media entity has been calling for the end of the wars? Trump definitely helped end many wars and ordered afghanistan to reduce. Even fired Mark Esper because he was resisting withdrawing. Biden got into power, seized multiple iranian oil tankers, reinvaded syria. Trump pulled out... The Biden said Yemeni war needed to end but instead aggravated the entire issue and now the war is worse.

The USA has tremendous war exhaustion and the media never ever talks about ending the wars.

Author here. Yeah, the Go language feels very archaic when using more modern languages. Some things I miss when I use Go: immutability as a default, monadic error handling, type classes, higher-kinded types, high-level collection operations (map, flatmap, filter, etc), ADTs, extensive pattern matching, expression-orientedness, and explicit null handling.

There is another problem regardless of how good education you get chances are you'll become a wage slave. The harder you work, the increasingly more tax you have to pay, so making effort does not pay these days. Then you have things like illegal drug market teasing the youth, as the margins are high and tax free. I thing just making the schools better will not have much effect, because young people have no motivation to do better as they'll have mediocre lives regardless of how much effort they put in education as the system is designed for the poor to stay poor.

Japan Court Rules Same-Sex Couples Have Marriage Rights in Landmark Decision
I should have expected such a reply. Your comment is exactly what I expect from white collar professional that works an office job.

It is an American import and it is absurd. It also causes division. e.g Many labourers (both skilled and unskilled) see it as a slight for someone who is brought up here and have lived here their entire life to display a flag other than the Union Flag of the St. Georges Cross. I've seen a lot of guys in working man's pubs get quite angry and this sort of resentment is always hand waived away as "racism" when that isn't the problem at all.

Many developers don't spend time with the lower classes / those that aren't university educated which have to deal with the worse parts of immigration. They only see the positive aspects of it.

BTW the same happens with the British in the South of Spain btw. The British reputation in Spain is complete dirt because of the disrespectful party goers and expats. It is due to them not assimilating or even bothering to respect the local culture and language.
I will disagree with one point. Neither eng managers nor tech leads should be doing project management. It is a unique skill and worth having someone explicitly in charge. They should own the structure of requirements docs, story breaktown, ticketing, jira processes, etc. While they may be somewhat technical they are more ensuring consistency and quality of process without burdening devs.

The best team composition I have ever worked on looks like this:

Product manager: Has <=3 teams knows company product / strategic goals / customer needs. Sets high level goals, updates those in response to scope estimates, coordinates with product org.

Eng manager: Highly technical, has institutional knowledge of codebase + understands the politics of the org. Has <=3 teams. Sets tone, handles dev career growth, mediates/prevents conflicts, recruits, shields devs from institutional nonsense.

Senior Dev / Tech lead: Trusted by eng manager to independently make arch level decisions. Can mentor / peer with / support other devs.

Dev1: Specialist in one relevant aspect of stack, but with general knowledge (can pick up any ticket if needed)

Dev2: Same as above, different specialty

QA: Half-time dedicated QA resource

UI/UX Designer: 33-50% time for team.

Project Manager: Half-time dedicated resource. Owns Jira, scrum master etc as noted above.

This group is flexible, resilient, and plays to people's strengths. If you don't have a project manager then yes it can be left to the eng manager or tech lead, but it's not ideal.
“ s. Sure, the left talks about rhetoric, but it also fights for higher wages, civil liberties, healthcare, affirmative action, investment in education, workers' rights, and voting rights.”

I don’t think the person you are replying to would agree with you about affirmative actions being a good thing. Other than that, the left is super repressive of free speech which is the only civil right left to win , detrimental to wage growth and worker rights by supporting unlimited immigration, bad for education by siding with teachers unions, manipulative when it comes to voting to the point when half of the country does not believe in elections. The right simply does not exist in the institutional level at this point, all they can do is whine about excesses of the left
But as a government representative, even if just a voice in a chorus, to promote something that may be against people's rights (I am not saying it is, just that some people may consider it - freedom of speech) and to directly influence companies to do what they think is right even (apparently) without any legal justification, a breach of her duties? If she is the most visible voice (social media breadth can also be used against you) shouldn't she also be one of the most singled out people?

In my country, even if the party agrees, usually who makes the comments more visibly (usually on TV) gets the 'blame' or ire of people. This is pretty normal and part of their duties as government representatives (otherwise they don't go to the media when they don't want the scrutiny of their words)

edit: Suppose the entire democrats are for doing something, but she tweets to her millions of followers about it, which creates social pressure from her followers for a company to do something, even if the entire democratic wing agrees, she as the 'inciter' shouldn't she also get the brunt of the ire? Or it is only for the good things you get credit (AOC defends better minimum wage, or student debt cancelation) but the bad ones no (democrats want to shut down parlour) ?

This is something I saw on US and European news. If 'America' did something 'bad', headlines would say 'Trump did this', if it was 'good', headlines would say 'America did this'. You can see this today, now a bit reversed, on cnn politics website. There are two positive headlines, both mention Harris and Biden by name, while the negative uses White House.
If they ban a client for the content it can access, why don't they ban web browsers entirely ?
Google Chrome allows access to illegal and hateful content too.
To turn it into a specific example, in a large enough company, to make the master->main change you have to: announce it, update the repo, update the documentation, update the CI, update any automation around code, then everyone has to update their local copies. It takes time that costs the company real money. You can calculate that amount and ask the company to donate it to an organisation which can influence real change instead of renaming.
It's interesting to note that NIH's funding is not strictly limited to health care and medicine. Often adjacent technologies are also covered, such as sensors and data acquisition systems. I could occasionally found interesting EE/CS papers on NIH's website. It's funny - reading EE/CS papers on a medical website, but these open access papers are extremely helpful. It's your tax dollar at work (in a positive sense)!

Sure. I actually did duckduckgo it, that's not the problem.

My point was that this website does not explain at all what the website is about. Instead, it contains some mumbling about "bringing digital creators, crypto natives, and collectors together to move culture forward".
> That's quite the lengthy article

It's in fact the shortest article I ever read - 0 words after the headline. Unless I refresh the site and manage to read the text within the split second it appears before it rapidly zooms beyond the website's borders.

Is this an exercise in focus and meditation? Do I have to register like some of the few visible parts of the page suggest? I don't know, but after reflecting on it I don't think I care enough about horrible web design to bother with it.
Sadly I am quite sure my app [1] will eventually be removed from the play store as well if it ever becomes popular with the "wrong crowd". All it does is provide a way to connect to peertube (also fediverse like Mastodon) instances and watch videos. Which instance you follow is up to you not me. Content is moderated by the peertube instance owners not me and I am not going to bother adding an instance blacklist for something I don't make any money from. Especially since you can reach any instance just using chrome.

In the case of bitcoin, it probably is. Legitimising bitcoin as an investment for institutionals pushes the price higher, and also increases trading volumes and thereby trading profits. In contrast with stocks, where a sell off generally brings volatility and good news to trading desks.
> I'm inordinately low-risk

By this I assume you think you are in the low risk of dying from COVID-19.

However, that does not mean you can't catch and spread the virus.

With that in mind you also need to consider those people you might come into contact with who are high risk, like your folks and your grandparents.

While you might well be fine, those around you might end up suffering the consequences of your actions.
Not tolerating xenophobia, racism and bigots in general is a big point for a lot of people. The paradox of tolerance is something that many people should consider.
Note that the grandparent post did not talk about the Left, but rather, the "Left". Not the same thing.
Turris?
I agree. I work in a matrixed consulting organization. I have a "People Lead" who guides my career development, and I'm handed off onto projects to "Project Leads" who guide the day to day. And I use the word guide intentionally. When I'm staffed to a project, my role as a project member is to look for the project lead for finance and schedule and PM direction, and maybe to a principal consultant if there is one to guide technical direction, but I'm an IC and expected to do my work. My People lead solicits feedback from those I work with, the project leads etc. But is disconnected from my day to day, so there's no feeling of power, just a willingness to help me with my goals.
Cool. How are you going about this ? Set up, stack, approches, experiments, using the model, etc. What's a typical playing session like ?
All of the above is legal, bigot.
Funny, the way I remember it, they forced Sanders out without any voting (and for the second time in a row!)
That's still just a shortcut to a faulty thought-process.

I don’t know if they even have enough room to encode the entire protein, that said even if they do it’s quite likely better to focus on specific amino acid chains that relate to specific structural areas of the protein that serve a critical function like interfacing with the receptors these aren’t likely to mutate without loss of function and it increases the likelihood of more targeted immune response.

If for example each vaccine selected 30 amino acid chains say 15 common ones and 15 that are varied between vaccines you can end up with vaccines that are more effective against certain mutations than others.

Realistically COVID-19 isn’t going anywhere and it will likely become very much endemic and will require a yearly vaccine especially for risk groups just like influenza.

I’m not with you. China is making something terrible in Xinjiang. China is outside the U.N. convention and if you use something like slaves to raise your economic power, a democratic state must give you some limits on the products exported from the region where China is commits a genocide.
>AstraZeneca has said that they’re aware of 15 events of deep vein thrombosis and 22 events pulmonary embolisms, but that’s in 17 million people who have had at least one shot – and they say that is indeed “much lower than would be expected to occur naturally in a general population of this size“. It also appears to be similar to what’s been seen with the other coronavirus vaccines, which rather than meaning “they’re all bad” looks like they’re all showing the same baseline signal of such events across a broad population, without adding to it.
