While I am not a big fan of advertising in some cases it may be a necessary evil. If I was going to see ads, I would prefer that they are:

A - generic as to my identity attributes
B - Not personalized in any way, except to the site

Basically, much closer to the ads back in the 90s.

If it works for TV for decades, it can work for the web.
I assume by 'native' you mean 'white'? Looking at the students/faculty of elite schools/research labs and staff of top companies, I see plenty of highly intelligent and educated non-white immigrants producing great work (sometimes they even make up the majority of these elite groups).

And many (most?) Western countries do provide various incentives to have kids, as well as Asian countries, but the incentives don't ever seem to work to get above that 2.1 replacement level, so Western governments are 'worried'/concerned about birth rates, but boosting them significantly not an easy thing to do. Especially when part of the reason might be that people simply don't want more than 1 or 2 kids these days regardless of finances.
I think what Enginerrrd is calling psychotic is that there's no way to, as you say, "make someone part of the same tribe" without employing a great deal of force to coerce (and crush) people.
This is a weird article, as others pointed out. I found the part about hate speech and intolerance particularly nonsensical:
(1) Western Europe has (more? stricter?) laws against hate speech than the U.S.
(2) There are more cases of hate crime (i.e. violations of these stricter laws) in Europe.
(3) Therefore, there is more intolerance in Europe than in the U.S.

It's like saying no one was ever charged in the UK for driving on the left side of the road, therefore UK drivers are superior.
Was that 4096 simultaneous colors? If so, it would have given VGA a run for its money -- only 256 colors for the active palette (though of course many more to pick from).
The CEO of Twitter has the task of maximising profit for shareholders; he needs to constantly be on the lookout for new opportunities to exploit. Apparently Twitter made a profit for the first time last year.

The CEO of Wikimedia needs to hire and manage maybe 50 people, of whom about 5 need executive pay. I have no idea why Wikimedia needs 500 staff, if they could build the site with a team of 20 or so.

It looks like a gravy train, and it quacks like a gravy train.

How Not to Die on Vacation
The paper isn't quite as directly about what the title says as I might have liked, but since it's a mostly serious academic paper it probably can't be.

It does contain some gems though, like:

> In spite of his claim to have "long claimed" that the conceivability of zombies is only apparent, one suspects that it is non-zombic humans that Dennett finds if not inconceivable, then unendurable. [...] Zombies are perfect for Dennett! If the human world turned out to be populated only by them, his troubles would be over. Non-zombic humans, by contrast, are a nightmare for Dennett.

It's also a serious but short look at the topic, which I found useful.
Hm, this should already be the case, with cargo passing cap-lints. Maybe you should file a bug!
Sure, great, let me just rebuild all my docker images on every single machine they run on thereby completely defeating the point of having images in the first place.
To folks that are complaining of being manipulated, I always felt that if you can be coerced into impulse-buying something voluntarily, and then regretting the purchase, there is probably not anyone to blame but yourself. Putting aside the existence of ads for a minute (I hate ads too), why do you feel that voluntarily purchasing something based on an ad is “manipulation”? If you resent such purchase afterwards, seems to imply you made a bad decision (rather than anyone manipulated you).

EDIT: care to elaborate the downvotes?

> For example will a bank even lend money against such a home or is there some underlying assumption that you'd have to demolish and rebuild new before they'd even consider it?

If they're being sold for $500 why would you expect a bank to want to lend money against it? It already has no value as collateral.
"A new study [1] by the two groups says that working 55 or more hours a week is a “serious health hazard.” It estimates that long working hours led to 745,000 deaths worldwide in 2016, a 29 percent increase over 2000. Men accounted for 72 percent of the fatalities; the worst concentrations were in the Western Pacific and Southeast Asia, and particularly among 60- to 79-year-olds who had worked long hours after the age of 45."

It's not so much demonizing someone as calling a spade a spade.

These cartels are built on an explicit disregard of ethics and human rights. People in these organizations are encouraged to commit bloodshed against innocent people.

To say that's not evil is a grave ethical miscategorization -- and those who fail to label evil accurately can't help stop its progression.

"If objective ethical values exist, we'll have to give up tribalism to realize them."

I didn't see a definition of "tribalism" in the article. I see references to the "January insurrection" and vague references to other "far-right" things.

If you go back to Plato's Euthyphro, you see the character Euthyphro on his way to testify against his own father for mistreating a criminal. This is a very early "moral" moment in our intellectual history; it was practically inconceivable that a son would take such a position against his own father. I'd feel comfortable calling it "anti-tribalist," and it isn't so obvious whether Euthyphro is pursuing the right course.

If you look at the laws of practically every developed country, there is no "tribalism." Given the vagueness of the authors target, I suspect what he'd rather say is that we have to give up things like nations, borders, ethnic identities, sex-based sport leagues, and so on. If he bothered to spell out in detail what he means by "tribalism," and not simply let the reader's imagination carry the burden of supplying the target, I suspect his proposal wouldn't have made it out of his own mouth.
Really? It’s definitely not true for education, good education is essentially completely independent of technology, and it seems to me that healthy food at reasonable prices is more a question of mechanized agriculture and supply chains.

Healthcare, maybe I can see it, but not really. The proliferation of single use stuff in hospitals for example seems like a different thing than cheap bicycles and shoddy clothes that last a single season.

Maybe I misunderstood what value engineering is, but I don’t really see how the philosophy behind cheap consumer goods is very related to those things.

It was difficult to read this and not laugh because it conveniently leaves out First Nations, as well as the fact that the USA in particular used immense amounts of slave labor while the "natives" you refer to (the whites) reaped the rewards in relative comfort.

Padlefish and Baiji dolphin river. Both went extinct at the same time by the same dam. 2003 and 2007. Our time.

Russia seems to be stuck even today. Roskosmos still launches Soyuzes, but their technological progress has stalled. The newer Angara vehicle only launched three times since 2014. They lost almost their entire share of the private satellite launch market, which used to be formidable mere 15 years ago. And the new Vostochny cosmodrome seems to be a black hole for shoveling money in.
FWIW, I have been using the Captor X as a quick tracking and editing tool. I will record the DI + Captor track. It can be a bit easier to comp the DI parts. Then later I go back and re-amp them thru my amps and speakers. I do have the benefit of a few nice amp and cabinet options and decent soundproofing, but it helps keep the ear-bleeding levels down to a minimum. That has kind of helped me avoid fiddling with Captor settings endlessly.
I have never understood kubernetes development in local development workflow unless kubernetes functionality being developed or some yaml magic. It’s super overhead IMHO. If needed to test api’s as unit test you can always port-forward traffic of desired enpoint or use something like telepresence. Less kubernetes is always better
if everyone stops after the first boy (I'm assuming a typo in gp) then there's a 50% chance of one boy, 25% chance of one each, 12.5% chance of 2 girls 1 boy, etc.

Let's assume a 4 child/family cap.

So for 100 couples you'll get 50 boys + 25 boys + 12.5 boys + 6.25 boys = 93.75 boys, vs 0 girls + 25 girls + 25 girls + 18.75 girls + ...
Agreed, for the most part. The biggest problem is the word “unusual” in my view.

I think all systems should be designed to support full Unicode text at this point, but it’s hard to fault someone for failing to do so without more information. It may be due to Unicode text restrictions in back-end apps or related systems that were outside the scope of the project. Or it could just be laziness.

Janteloven is mostly a political talking point. The text itself is being a hundred year old curiosity. Scandinavia have traditionally (in modern history) conformed not because you had to but because most people lived similar lives. When you have similar education, housing and work environment most people are similar even though you might be appreciate different things. There are for example many metal band from the Nordics. Go back a hundred years and that wasn't true. In fact 15%+ of swedes left for the US at one point.

The Nordic countries are known for their Social Democracy where reforms are everything. That of course isn't true anymore, but there isn't much saying that conformity inhibits progress. In most cases you have to get to some good place before you can go somewhere else.

That said, today Sweden is mostly a terrible place for any kind of knowledge work since the housing market is so screwed.

Seems like these comments aren't going through though so... guess that was a waste much like Hacker News.

I’m the opposite. I hate ads that have nothing to do with me. I value my time and I prefer that if I’m going to see an ad, then that ad be something I would find interesting.
Nothing; that's what the title should be. The guidelines ask you to use the original title, and not try to summarize the article yourself in the submission title.
Maybe you're right. But if less advertising means that less money is going into businesses, then ads don't make products free, because they increase consumer spending and decrease the efficiency of consumer spending. If what you're saying is true, then advertising has a tangible cost for consumers.

There are three possible theories about how advertising works:

A) Advertising increases consumer spending and makes consumers spend dollars less efficiently based on attributes like branding that are unrelated to quality. In which case, all of this "advertising makes apps free" talk has been really deceptive, because consumers who are viewing ads are spending more money for worse/inflated products to compensate.

In this world, it's worth asking what the costs of advertising are and whether we want it to be the primary way of funding the Internet.

OR

B) Consumer spending/efficiency doesn't change, consumers are smart enough to buy the best product anyway, and the only thing that changes is which companies get that money and have brand recognition. In which case, it starts to become difficult to argue that consumers opting out of ads they don't want to see is particularly harmful. In the world where advertising is just making people aware of new information and helping them make informed purchasing choices, then it's probably a good thing that across the board everyone is being forced to cut down on the pointless noise that amounts to companies trying to scream over each other and increasingly hyper-target people in creepy ways.

If advertising does not increase consumer spending, and if everyone is reducing spending and effectiveness by the same amount on iOS, then this should be good for advertisers -- they'll spend less money on ads, and consumers will still spend the same amount of money themselves. The only reason that wouldn't be the case is if highly targeted ads actually changes consumer behavior and spending habits in meaningful ways -- but if we admit that, we need to admit that the advertising industry is a lot more problematic and a lot less "free" for consumers than it likes to claim.

OR

C) Advertising is a public good, and consumers actually want to know about these products, and ultimately people want targeted ads.

But this is obviously not the case for the majority of advertising. If it was the case, than iOS's changes wouldn't be a big deal. If consumers want targeted ads, they have the option to keep allowing them in iOS. The whole reason we're in this situation is because consumers have overwhelmingly demonstrated that they do not want targeted ads.

So at best, the advertising industry can position itself as a kind of metaphorical "vegetable", claiming that everyone hates them but ultimately the world would be better if more things were commercialized. But it's just not a realistic theory, the data is pretty clear that consumers don't like ads and it's very hard to argue that unrestrained commercialism and forced targeting is good for society. There are more efficient ways we could be doing this if our goal was really just to make it easier for people to compare products and learn about new solutions to their problems.
If the house is in the few thousand to tens of thousands of USD range, you could probably afford to pay for a fibre run out to your property with the money saved compared to the cost of a house in the US or EU.

Does it "indirectly pay" translators? Or are they in fact volunteers?
"a position like that deserves good compensation"

Why do they deserve that much compensation exactly?

The people who to my mind deserve high compensation are people who are risking their lives to help people, such as firefighters (who are often sadly volunteers and don't get paid anything), front line nurses and doctors, teachers in inner city schools or third world countries, Peace Corps volunteers, etc.

People whose job it is to hobnob with other high-paid execs over expensive lunches and give orders should be at the bottom of the pay ladder, not at the top.
VR has been 'the next big thing' for a lot of decades now.
One of the challenges with this is that much of the best practice has evolved over time with guidance from national regulators and guidance from the EDPB.

Latest EDPB guidelines I'm aware of are at https://edpb.europa.eu/sites/edpb/files/files/file1/edpb_gui...

The current banners barely even comply with the letter of the law, let alone the spirit of the law - most sites are still dropping the cookies before the user sees or interacts with the banner.

Assuming they actually do function (around half don't, in my experience), then you have different interpretations around even the size of buttons and their colour - current view seems to be that buttons should be equal in size and prominence, and that an accept all should be matched by a button to reject all (rather than forcing users to granularly opt out of each one).

I have no clue where the modern trend to claim legitimate interest around cookies arises from, but it has no legal basis in the UK for one, and similar true for other jurisdictions - in the UK, there are only 3 situations where identifiers can be used or placed (see PECR legislation and guidelines from the ICO) - due to the technical necessity of getting the bits and bytes to you, in order to deliver solely functionality requested by the user (setting session cookie for login, setting a shopping basket cookie due to a user adding an item to their basket etc.). Your final option is explicit GDPR-level consent. Legitimate interest is not an option.

The prevalence of presumed consent to use of third party and faux-first-party cookies for other purposes has no basis though - stats or telemetry etc are not permitted uses, as much as companies may cry... Either technical necessity to deliver bits and bytes, to deliver solely the user's explicitly requested functionality, or based on informed user consent.

Ironically if you do it right, you don't need any cookie banner! Just don't use cookies for marketing, targeting, tracking, or anything else that's hidden from the user - no cookie consent is required to let them browse, shop, check out, etc!

Same for this.

I am not a darwinian, but most folks are these days.

Universal morality doesn't appear to be particularly successful, when faced with tribalism. As far as I can tell, from a darwinian perspective, the right thing (so called) would be to encourage universalism in your competitors, while practicing tribalism yourself.
Many (most?) apps don't do it, but the useful feature for me that's not possible with a web page is reliable, unobtrusive, background updates.

Things like weather (with or without current coarse location), sports scores, headline news benefit from up to the minute data fetches, but older data is still useful.

For communication apps, often people would like notifications on inbound messages, so that can fit with web push apis to get data; but if you don't want notifications, you can't consistently make messages available to read offline.
