As far as your minor point, it is likely the person behind the desk will be looking at basically the same interface you would be online, then just typing things in for you. So if there is a service interruption, it’s likely they would also be saying “Sorry, our systems are down.”
Try anything anonymous and uncensored, and check what you find with your own research. I think you may be shocked by how much you’ve been lied to.
I used to be more worried about this, but one of the things Trump proved is you can have unquestionably authentic video evidence of lies and many people won’t care.

The people that care about figuring out the truth and critical thinking will probably still figure it out.

Others will believe crazy things for stupid tribal reasons despite contrary evidence.

It would be one thing if the publisher just stopped printing them. As pointed out in the article they were banned from eBay (a dubious honour achieved not even by Mein Kampf), and removed from libraries.

In terms of giving these to children - I'd argue that this is the parent's decision to make and that there are far worse things we are seem to be ok exposing children to, like advertising or social media.
I'm not buying it. Notice that the girl's hair covers her ear in different ways each time, so it can't be her hair and ear, it has to be his.

But her hair doesn't actually match his hair. So that's not it, either.

These shows are all about shock, and I wouldn't be surprised if they were fooled as well.
> Every codebase you have ever worked with is typed.

You've baked your conclusion into your argument. But by this logic, sure, everything is typed. I'll buy it. A static type system just makes you explicitly type it out for every single thing and again for every single thing that might operate on that first thing. It's pedantic, filled with boilerplate, and plenty of promises about problems the system solved that were just invisible before. Hmm...those might be the marks of snake oil, now aren't they?

Consider a iron foundry. Are there type checks on the iron? No, the entire process is duck-typing. Why? Because that's how reality works. You can specially shape your iron ingots to key into your foundry. What's that? Duck typing. The firing profile will follow certain characteristics. Did it get those characteristics from the ingot? No, it duck types it and starts firing it as if its iron. If it isn't iron, the process will throw an exception. And that part has all sorts of safety checks around it. The most you can do would be some type of chemical check on the ingot before starting. Almost like a typecheck before proceeding in a method.

Aristotelian vs. Platonic approaches. The problem with the Platonic approach is that it requires you to be an oracle. Static typing is like trying to encode logic at the molecular level. This atom WILL NOT bond this atom. I mean, sure, it can work...but there's a lot of atoms and a lot of interactions. Don't define what you don't need.

"If, say, a US adversary creates a great-looking video of the US president doing/saying something really heinous (...)"
Did we not see enough fake stories about US presidents already? The DeepFakes are not really needed to falsely accuse a politician, or to wash away the compromising material. The media can use anonymous sources to claim anything bad about any public figure without consequences. Also, they can ignore and diminish any compromising material, effectively shielding the subject. It is all about who controls the media and subsequently the narrative. DeepFake may or may not be used in court though.

You both raise some good points, but in your case you may at least understand what Hitler was trying to communicate when you decide not to adopt his view.

To answer your question, a bad situation in my mind would be something like this example: a few years ago a relatively bright friend who had worked for a famous national politician got into a disagreement with me when I referred to The Colbert Report as satire. He did not think there was satire or that Colbert was putting on another character for the show at all. I was a big fan of the show, but it was alarming to me how many people might not understand subtlety like satire in novels and movies.

Maybe there was never a golden area when everybody got it. In Voltaire's day, did the majority of the populace comprehend his meaning? Were the majority even aware of his messages?

I have always loved reading novels from an early age, and find them superior in understanding other people's ways of thinking. As advanced and educated as many people enjoy being in the 21st century, I fear too many might still not bother to dig deeper into the intentions of a writer to truly understand what they were hinting at. It's an excellent skill applicable to other areas in life, and with controversial topics it can really help to bridge the gap in a polarized debate. Hitler is an extreme, and I personally don't believe all writing is fundamentally good and edifying to your soul, but I do think effort should be made to understand an author, especially when the writing clashes with contemporary norms. You can still discard it after carefully weighing it, but if you discard it without giving credit to what the author was trying to say because you don't even understand it, that's a loss.

These zealous critics could apply their same logic to cancel my beloved Huckleberry Finn, a book that shed light on injustice more effectively than most even though the author did not come from the same ethnic background as Jim.

Harvesting peoples behavioral or other data is depriving them of privacy. There is lots of precedent for why privacy is important. So to be specific, the data collection is "stealing" privacy.

And with respect to the gp comment, this is actually different than copyright infringement, where the infringer is not depriving the copyright holder of anything, except potentially a business model based on withholding information. There is obviously a lively debate about the appropriate reach of copyright law, but imo at least, copyrights are more abstract that the privacy rights that are being infringed through surreptitious data collection
How is it done then?
The US was to and not that long ago.
For me it is not only about Rust but any open-source software. Companies essentially get labour for free and they don't have to commit their own resources to take on employees and they don't pay salaries and tax. This creates advantage for privileged developers who can work for free and "show off" and there are less jobs for developers from poorer backgrounds as there is nothing like Rust to develop, because companies can just snatch an open source project.
Do you not think this is weird that these companies have billions and billions of cash lying around and developers who helped them make that money probably still live in a rental shoebox?

The plausible deniability of camera footage always existed, even in the film days. There are lots of tricks to fake things on camera. Neural networks do make it much easier, but it's not new.

That said though, make forging evidence a crime of the utmost seriousness. Also, /more/ cameras always makes deepfaking harder.

Sounds like we agree on this. I want to push you here though.

Did twitter contribute to the events on the 6th? Do they have any role to play?

Do you have to use the words "go and kill them" in order for it to be violence?

I'm trying to be genuine here, because I don't know. I will say it certainly feels like we saw the violence being induced for months ahead of time on twitter without explicit calls for violence.

Should we just allow this?

It's happening still. We have members of congress calling the election stolen. This is how more violence happens. It's a slow burn, but it's a burn.
"... it has some special logic to detect when anyone other than the specified owner is transacting it, and in these situations it only returns 10% of the specified amount - despite emitting event logs which match a trade of the full amount"

Wouldn't be surprised if this comes under the definition of fraud.
Yes. That is what i am saying. I think that's fair and good in theory, even if i personally don't think twitter should take that direction. For one thing, it will be hard to moderate and set clear boundaries.

This is a good documentary on the efforts of the Right to Die movement in Oregon a decade ago.[0]

In it, there’s a woman with cancer who clearly enjoys living. She’s active, she participates in the world, she goes on despite her illness… until there’s no ability to experience joy.

Her body is being destroyed. She has a protrusion the size of a football in her midsection. She literally can’t function at a base level. Only then does she opt to end her life. She didn’t give up. She fought until she had no fight left.

Also contained within are obscene images of “pro-life” advocates fighting furiously to force people to suffer until the bitter end. They think themselves moral and just. They are, in fact, barbaric. It so angers me that religious people and institutions would inflict their beliefs on others in such a cruel way.

A peaceful death should be every person’s right.

> When things are judged, not by how the author intended, but by the readers interpretation, it’s a bad situation.

I don’t know, I think there’s a very good reason to give significant priority in judgement of acts to their consequences, especially forseeable ones, not just their intentions. That’s as true of acts of artistic creation as any other action.

That’s on top of the fact that forseeable consequences are often a better indicator of actual intent than convenient and otherwise unsupported post hoc statements of intent when an action is criticized for its actual consequences.
4 Tips to Improve Your Engineering Team's Velocity in Scrum
I know a 3x leveraged fund does not behave as idealized, when you really cash out you won't really get 3x the rate of return.

It would be insane to put 100% of your portfolio in such a fund, it is more like it to allocate 30% of your portfolio to that, and the rest to something safe or at nest decorrelated from the stock market, say 30% in Lending Club, 15% in gold, 10% in bank CD, etc...

If the market has an awful day a triple-levered fund can take a much worse hit than expected, particularly if the market "sizes up" like it did for Gamestop. I'd think a levered fund for the S&P500 or NASDAQ work be pretty safe but anything more granular is getting risky.

Note also that if the market goes against you in the short term the ETF may go out of business and hand you the cash at the worst possible time which you might reinvest properly but you might not.

It is really fun to invest in a dangerous ETF or ETN with some "Mad Money" (like it is fun to bet on the horses) but if you are interested in that kind of "leveraging" you should understand Stock Options enough to understand how you can accomplish the same thing with as the 3x ETF with a program of trading of SP&500 options -- in that case you may be able to "keep on keeping on" through the dip and make huge profits in the end. Or maybe you give up out of despair or are forced to give up by your creditors.

Great hedgie and social-democrat economist J. M. Keanes said "the market can remain irrational for longer than you can remain solvent" and you can face the squeeze yourself with options, short selling and similar tools.
That's one of the things I loved most about games in the 90s. Everything is a pile of hacks and tricks.

I remember doing "reverse engineering" on a bunch of those as a kid and I can definitely attribute my passion for software to those experiences.

It would be “super weird” if what you put in quotes was a fair account of the stance of the author. In fact, the accusations against Allen are not credible, and that was part of the point.
I think you're mostly right, but there are actually people who believe in the free flow of ideas. The liberals and libertarians believed it before the current spat of censorship started, and many people who just disagree with the censors this time are flocking to their banners in an alliance of convenience.

That is to say, I think there are actual true believers when it comes to free speech.

Edit: I just reread your comment and there's a "most" I missed the first time. Leaving this comment up, but safe to say I agree.
It's free marketing -- or at least, a marketing amplifier. Sell enough books and you can get your name in front of a bunch more people. Those people at least know that other people are buying your book.

That said, your link's observation that it's a curated list actually means that it is more of an accolade than merely sales. It means that somebody at the Times wanted the book on the list, which says more to its readers.

It's not much, but when you're trying to stand out in a crowded market, each little bit helps. Popularity has a positive feedback effect, and it's really slow going if you can't take advantage of it. At least for a cycle or two.

What do you mean? Rowling has absolutely used her power, i.e her visibility as a very prominent public figure, to write and share tweets and articles that prop up and reinforce the current transphobic discourse in the UK. I'm also not sure who you're pointing you when you say "The woke establishment that's been going after her", because as far as I know the people who have called out her transphobia have definitely opposed the various UK bills and motions you're referring to.
Thanks! I did a bit of digging around, and it looks like the BSE-causing prion can rarely, on ingestion, cause prion formation that causes CJD. So, if I understand correctly, it's not exactly a disease that transmits like a virus, it's one that is induced by the transmission of a diseased particle (the cow prion) when it goes form cows to humans. BSE and CJD seem to be the result of the transmission and induction of the respective prions. It seems comparable to a cow being on fire, and a human catching fire from it -- the latter is a human fire, and the former is a cow fire. Unless I really got that wrong, interesting!

>but if freedom of speech isn’t associated with freedom from persecution it’s not really free speech.

Given that every government in history which has recognized the concept of "free speech", including the United States, has regulated and even outlawed some forms of speech, and given that "consequence" is a natural, emergent property of societies and the fact that humans are social, emotional animals who don't process speech as mere passive data, one must come to the conclusion that free speech has never existed at any point in space or time.

That being the case, one wonders why everyone is so concerned now about something that, clearly, humanity has never needed up until this point?
Being against the existence of trans people and criticizing the claims or actions of people that happen to be trans are two different things.
