It's not that the people who form a twitter mob don't think or "let twitter think for them".

It's that they actively enjoy hurting someone as a mob. They get a kick out of it, and it's not discouraged (as would be actually forming a mob out in the streets be). If anything, it's encouraging, and gives them not just the joy of kicking someone who is down, but also "good person" credits (because the one getting kicked is a bad person, of course).

In other words, people are not mislead "against their better nature": they are just encouraged to embrace their badness.
There are loopholes. For instance, if instead of spying on the people you pay someone else to do it and become a "Witness" or to come forward with evidence then it is above board. For instance, if Facebook were to sell your info to the FBI and then they used it against you in a case then it is totally above board.

It's kind of like how if you watch your neighbor murder a poodle and you call the cops, they don't need to get a warrant if you want to testify.

In this case, the witness was a person agreeing to a reduced sentence in exchange for developing ANOM.

Admittedly I didn't follow it super closely, but I did do fig when that was a thing, then tried initial docker compose, and then later did docker compose again.

All along it has always just felt way too imperative. It was too much of a sense that you were issuing commands at a system rather than declaring a desired end state. Kubernetes got this right from the get-go.
I'm sorry, but the app is currently in beta and limited to 67 countries/regions to better support this. Please let me know what country you are in so that I may rectify this.
So it's like... a reddit-inspired IRC. lol
I don't think you're too cynical at all - I think you're exactly right! It's often much more sensible to use the "tried and true" stuff most of the time.

In my particular case I don't plan to have my company grow much at all - we're staying small. I think Pulumi is a sensible "bet" for me, because it does what I need right now really well. Sure, there's a bit of a risk, but worst case scenario I would spend a day or two to migrate what I have back to Terraform.

I would definitely not have made the call to "let's just switch everything to Pulumi" if I was still working at a larger company. As you said, a large talent pool / community is a huge deal when you have the option to hire people who can spend time learning a particular tool or language.
Or just take a full dose and take a walk in nature. Much better.
According to the article, this can (and will be) tested experimentally. I really wish they'd gone into what kind of experiments could (in)validate these ideas and why; as-is I think the article reads too high-level for such out-there ideas and I have no idea whether this is actually science or not.

No. 10,000 voices braying your name as an evil-doer itself does harm. This isn't a kid being told on a playground that "words will never hurt you," that's always been a lie.

Here is a case [1] of a man being falsely doxxed for the assault on two kids on a bike path last summer. The voices calling for him to be brought to justice, calling him a racist, etc, numbered in the tens of thousands. The retractions from people who realized they had made a mistake for calling for the blood of the wrong person numbered in the tens.

Beyond the psychological damage this may have caused, will this man ever feel safe submitting a resume for a job again? When he does so, does he need to attach a note saying "When you Google my name, all those mentions of me being a racist are false." If he does that, does he already subconsciously look distasteful in the recruiter's eyes?

Shipping is boring as hell. Lots of not-fun stuff. I generally have to force myself to polish the fenders. For example, one of the things I always do, is create a project social media card for my repos. Silly, but it helps me to feel like it's "for real."

But it's really nice to know that I can include one of my projects as a dependency, and not have to worry a bit about whether or not it will bork my project.
An absolutely shocking decision, which will have immense negative consequences for healthcare and healthcare costs far into the future. A license to turn false hope into profit margins and commissions for snake oil salesmen.

We have a small tax on the wealth of the rich, called the estate tax. It's assessed when the owner will feel the pain the least.
> But....shares are useless until sold.

This is clearly untrue. At least they have use in the ongoing option to sell. I can use them as collateral to borrow at least as much as, and probably a multiple of, their value.

If you genuinely think they are useless, please give me some. I will use them.

> how can you be taxing someone on a hypothetical sale value?

Since shares are fungible, the government could just apply the tax as a number of shares. Then nobody has to worry about defining a hypothetical value.

The history of the relationship between Mesos and Docker is definitely an interesting one. If memory serves right, Mesos was not keen of supporting Docker as a containerizer. The devs wanted to stick to improving the Mesos containerizer.

In the end, the community was so vocal about Docker being supported in Mesos that it happened, but the end result was not stellar by all accounts (and a bit of a nightmare to deal with on the framework side to boot).

I'm not privy to what was going at the time since I was just part of the larger Mesos community, but looking back, can't help but wonder what would have happened if they collaborated instead.
There's a huge market already saturated with moonshots like this. It's called alternative medicine.
To me, the parent wasn’t saying an asset holder would need to pay taxes on the asset unless they used it as collateral. To me, this makes a lot of sense. If someone owns a startup and worries tax implications would overextend them if the value was taxed, they shouldn’t use it as collateral on a loan.

I may be missing your point though.
I was assuming they are able to obtain the key. Nobody believes hard forking is a practical solution to seizure.
I've been a ProtonMail, and Beta ProtonMail user, for some time now. I do feel the Beta brought a lot of improvements, but for some reason they removed the VIM bindings halfway through the Beta and never reintroduced them.

You don't pay capital gains taxes until you sell the stock. The IRS only taxes you when you cash out. Presumably the articles will show the wealthy "cashing out" via loopholes that evade the tax.
> "Is it a tab or is it a button". UI is very contextual, and in Firefox's case they're very obviously tabs

Agree. I don't believe one second anyone was like "geeee, where are tabs and what are these buttons?". It's very obvious it's just a tab redesign which doesn't change anything at all.
But that means actually “doing” something.
Theory: there is an equilibrium between cost of tax and cost of tax avoidance. Some of the tax avoidance costs are amortized over a broader time period than any particular tax and this requires the provision of specialist knowledge and skills. Once a tax avoidance service provider is engaged there is an incentive for the provider to go after remaining tax even if the avoidance to tax cost ratio is not as favorable as the base reason to engage the provider. The result of this is that once the avoidance to tax threshold is passed there is an larger affect on tax payments than the arithmetic amount of tax over the initial threshold.
While at first glance it would be strange to expect Apple to make these changes; I don't feel its unreasonable from any perspective. Apple should hold a long-term interest in keeping the web diverse; Safari will never reasonably hold a majority/plurality marketshare, so their second highest priority from a revenue/ux perspective should be "sticking to the standards" and helping toward ensuring web developers don't take on a "Chrome and nothing else" stance.

Granted, its also understandable that Apple officially working on Firefox would be "article on The Verge" level of news and even an armchair commentator would be able to connect the dots from what they're working on to predicting Facetime was coming to web. Though, isn't that what Jobs originally promised? Open source protocol and such?

At the end of the day, I'm sick and tired of the prevailing hyper-endstage-capitalist excuse of "they won't make a billion dollars from doing this, so not only will they not do it, but they SHOULDN'T". Its everywhere on HN, and its actual brain worms. Corporate decisions shouldn't only be analyzed through this lens; there's a far broader humanistic lens that codifies a higher standard that we absolutely can reasonably hold all companies to; not from a legal sense (HackerNews isn't a court and your votes are not a jury decision, some armchair commentators need to be reminded), not even from a general population public relations sense; but from a viewpoint that Ethics is not a democracy, there are some ethical positions that won't make money, aren't required by law, and aren't even popular, but are nonetheless crucially important to avoiding a Blade Runner-eque corpo-cyberpunk future (or, with some very legitimate issues, species extinction or at least achieving and maintaining a high standard of living for most of our species).

The sibling argument of Firefox's CEO making a ton of money being reprehensible is... I mean, jeeze, they make awesome software, open source, freedom respecting, privacy respecting, and manage to pay their leadership & employees well? Isn't that the dream? That should be the goal; not be derided. There's a middleground between hyper-endstage-brain-worm-capitalism and "all software is developed by starving monks in a monastery". I understand its hard to believe this, because it isn't an extreme; its easy to let gravity drag your ethical viewpoint to an extreme on the left or right in this age of outrageous social media, but neither extreme on any ethical dimension is conductive to a positive future for humanity.
worse: paid content farms / ai to generate crap "articles" by the boatload, targeting every organic search term 5 different ways.

The result is that ACTUALLY USEFUL articles are buried on page 5. Any slightly helpful bit of content in the top articles are repeated (using different grammar of course) in all the other "top" articles.
The article also points out that "in the coming months" it'll reveal more. Although I agree this isn't that interesting, just judging by the income reported Buffett, Bezos, Musk, paid 19%, 23%, and 30% respectively (not counting obviously massive stakes in unrealized gains)... the outlier here is Bloomberg at 3%.
Most European countries, including Switzerland, still have them. They do work with some limits. And they are absolutely necessary to prevent that, once you have made money, you can profit for the rest of your life including future generations.

If there is no form of weath + inheritance tax, a feudal society is unavoidable.

Even if difficult, we'd better try.
I didn't know that when I wrote that, no. I thought it was the same story as EncroChat at the time (where an existing network was taken over by the police). I saw it in more detailed news reports since.

The points might have been valid but the language is not instilling any kind of confidence: "This is an ENTERPRISE MILITARY GRADE Encrypted setup." doesn't exactly make it seem like a security researcher who knows what they're talking about. And add many other words capitalised for maximum shock effect: "imagine you were meeting up with someone like an EX-LOVER your partner may not approve of"

It all sounds very much FUD and biased. If you do a good analysis, this is not how you present it.

The main points he really makes are poor endpoint security (not uncommon in this market, as many such networks have been breached) and noticed some suspicious traffic which is indeed a telltale that something more is going on.

But it sounds way too much like someone with 'skin in the game' was trying to spin it and turned out to be right.
A wealth tax will fail for the same reason the income tax has failed. The extremely wealthy will move their wealth into complex multinational financial vehicles and strut up to the tax authority saying, "See? I own very little." It becomes the legislative cat and mouse game, which governments lose when up against those with massive assets with which to lobby.

There is not a good answer that I have found to the taxation issue. Wealth is self-sustaining over the short term like advantageous mutations are self-sustaining in biological systems.
> "only" paid billions

It was millions over the period of 2014 to 2018. Not that I disagree with your overall point.

Bezos did almost pay $1b himself though. In total the people in the article paid under $2b.
> almost entirely custom ASICs

Those are still a cause for chip shortages as crypto customers bid themselves to the front of the line at TSMC:

"Chip manufacturing is already under huge pressure to meet demand, and TSMC is facing a serious water shortage in Taiwan on top of that. Bitmain's order only adds to the pressure, but TSMC clearly wouldn't agree to production if it didn't think it had the spare capacity. Anyone attempting to place new chip orders in the future may end up with a different outcome, though."

You do own taxes if you find a diamond. You don't owe taxes if you buy a rock for $10 and it increases in value to $50m.

If you want to keep something you find and can't afford to because of taxes, you either get a loan or have to sell it.
It's not a random drug. It's proven to reduce plaques. The phase 3 trials were inconclusive in proving that it improved patient outcomes which is certainly a bad sign but it's absolutely possible that future trials would show different results. I'm not saying the FDA is definitely right. I'm admittedly out of my depth on this topic. All I'm saying is this blog glossed over the severity of the problem they are trying to solve.

Dementia is absolutely terrifying. My parents have already told me to euthanize them if it ever happens to them. I'd absolutely let them try this unproven therapy before doing that.
But the pharmaceutical companies have tried several times to get an Alzheimer's drug that work. Being the first one to get an approved drug is a license to print money to the tunes of tens or hundreds of billions of dollars--enough to cover the costs of development. The reason why we haven't had any yet is because they don't work.

Why should Biogen's probably-doesn't-work Alzheimer's drug get a pass that the dozen or more attempts that showed similarly bad results didn't get? Note in particular that the assessments of everyone who looked at Biogen's statistical claims here is that those claims are not substantiated by statistics.
> I suppose only things that definitely cause harm, because otherwise why not just ask for the same deal that Biogen got, and go out and prove efficacy while you turn a profit?

In a sense, this is how it's sort of always worked. The approval process is about protecting investors. If a drug is good it's usually pretty obvious. When it's not obvious, efficacy in a more abstract sense must account for cost, which is out of the FDA's jurisdiction.

The real problem with its organization is that it is, as you're saying, Medicare's procurement agent. But it is not empowered to consider cost.
Many of these things are already valued, including some by the government such as lot of real estate. We can work to use those valuations. We can make it so insurance companies need to report valuations to the government for example. A painting worth 7 figures is going to be listed in some insurance policy. Report that number to the government and there is no legal argument to be had. Either it is being overvalued for insurance fraud purposes or undervalued for tax fraud purposes. The conflicting incentives should yield a relatively accurate valuation.

We also don’t need to make perfect the enemy of the good. We don’t need to account for absolutely every piece of wealth if we cover the big ones. We can also continue to revise these tax policies as new loopholes are discovered and exploited.
I agree with the arguments (usually made by Apple fans, and I don't mean that as a pejorative) that Apple is probably in their legal rights and that it makes dollars and cents business sense for them to limit iMessage to iOS as much as possible.

But it's still a shitty thing to do. I have a tremendous amount of respect for companies that do things that are contrary to business objectives because they're the right thing to do. In this case, Apple chose to do the shitty thing.
We’ve been using Runway at ClassPass for the last several months. The engineers love it, we can create a release in one click, not to mention improved coordination. The possibility of having an automated RC cut is exciting.

Clearly both have benefits. If you have access to nature (many people don't) then walking in it is beneficial. Whether or not you have access to nature, microdosing might help.
Only if the value of the assets goes down signficantly. Your loan based on Enron stock needs to be paid back (or recollaterialized), but one based on a stock that's been doing well or on a reasonably diversified portfolio can probably avoid repayment until you sell or die. From what I've seen, asset backed loans will have a % limit of value for initiating a loan and a higher % limit to keep the loan, but both limits are often much lower than a brokerage margin loan.
Merely as the technical answer to your question, not as advocacy: CFN has custom providers [0] and they've started publishing quite a few implementations on GH (but I haven't tried them to know if they're for real): e.g. https://github.com/aws-cloudformation/aws-cloudformation-res...

As far as I know, it is possible to bridge terraform providers into a CFN stack using that mechanism, similar to how Pulumi works

Yes exactly that, the new colors just feel a little washed out for me.
He proposes a new standard in his repo. He doesn‘t explain why it‘s better (not in the repo, nor in the comment), just mentions that all others are bad.

I call him out for just re-inventing the wheel by mentioning the xkcd. He proposes a new standard in his repo. He doesn‘t explain why it‘s better (not in the repo, nor in the comment), just mentions that all others are bad.

I call him out for just re-inventing the wheel by mentioning the xkcd. And indeed, critical self-reflection is necessary when developing a standard - why is it necessary? What does it do better? Otherwise, it‘s just as in the xkcd - a standard that nobody will ever use.

And instead of explaining just that he choses to attack me.

But you‘re right, a little accompanying text wouldn‘t have hurt.
Is there a secure mail server that I can self-host without reading a lot about how email works?

I doubt it's going to damage your eyes. It's sample-and-hold, after all. It is just very tedious that you have to wait 33ms between when you type a key and it appears on the screen. You will notice, and you will be frustrated.

I have a 360Hz monitor and it is really amazing what the reduction in input latency feels like in the real world. All of this input lag that gets blamed on USB or bad input subsystems is really just double-buffered vsync.
Apple's choice here was likely to not release the product at all, or use an open standard that Firefox doesn't yet support, and allow them to support it over time.

Using features that not all browsers have implemented _yet_ isn't always bad for the open web. If the feature is important, the other browsers prioritize it.
The trick is to cash out by dying. You can do this by living off loans against your unrealized capital gains. These then get paid off at your death, and there are all kinds of "simple" ways to keep estate untaxed.
Writing a book about your research is basically expected in most academic fields. Engineering is no different.

Would you be mad at Thrun for publishing and profiting from Probablistic Robotics while publishing academic papers on the same subject? I wasn't.

Though le valle's "Planning Algorithms" was released free and has arguably done better, that model is not the state of the art in most academic publishing.
This is not always a surprise...since we tax based on income and not net worth. Most billionaires are wealthy because they own significant amounts of stock...so unless someone like Bezos sells a significant amount of stock and it's then income they won't pay taxes on it. The same way we don't tax people's house value every year even though their net worth has likely increased year over year.

Oh, and with some proposed taxes on net worth that would force someone like Bezos or Musk to sell their company stock and potentially lose controlling interest in his company. It also means a lot of work and random assessments of property...which is not a perfect science (even worse than calculating income and taxes).
