There's obviously no amount of money that covers it, and so ideally there are actual cultural reinvigoration goals as well perhaps as Indigenous population growth goals - and supporting the costs of social determinants until those communities are thriving and growing at a level above average or some multiple compared to Canada as a whole.

I didn't say all ads should be banned, just the exploitative collection of personal data to be sold to the highest bidder, which is also what this coalition calls for.

How much of Facebook's ad revenue actually goes into hosting and maintaining their social network? Without having looked it up, I'm willing to bet it's a fairly small percentage.

Even if, in some bizarre imaginary universe, the only revenue stream that could support a social network like Facebook, was to steal the private information of a sizable part of the world population and sell it to advertisers, is the "service" Facebook is offering really worth that? I don't think so.

> I don't love defending Facebook, but as of last year, they employed 15 THOUSAND content moderators

If all that discussions in Facebook happened in cafes, libraries and schools there will be way more "moderators" in that spaces. 15,000 is nothing for a business with 2.85 billion users. That is a little more than 1 moderator for each 200,000 users.
Bare metal Linux is much faster than Linux on windows in my experience.

Yes, Roth IRAs are quite simple as you can literally just have a stack of cash in your apartment labelled “Roth IRA” if you wanted to. All the reindeer games with IRAs are just so the accounting is hard to mess up, with separate usually electronic accounts.

> there's no single good intuitive way to compare cardinal preferences.

What? You can literally rank them if you're confused. Better yet, rank them with unequal spacing (A:5, B:4, C:2).

It is hard to take your claim seriously because it has been tested in real world settings. This isn't a theoretical proposition (and you're arguing over theory). Also did you really just say "logarithmic vs exponential?"

The reality doesn't match your hypothesis and that is testable.

You're claiming philosophers abandoned it and I don't see evidence for this. Also I'm not sure why philosophers matter here, this isn't philosophy. Cardinal methods are the preference of most researchers that study voting. I don't know about you, but I tend to go with expert opinion (not absolutely, but it is a strong signal that something is the right path to follow. Then you just vet the work).

Or maybe the US and its allies actively pursue shit that's threatening to the Iranians? Eg: Yemen, Syria, etc.

Let's drop the farcical argument about how the Iranian programme is a threat to US interests. Meanwhile the tiny UAE can actively buy nuclear tech from the US, while also letting the Chinese build a military base and themselves building a base in Djibouti. Or the Saudis who can easily acquire a nuclear weapon from Pakistan with far less effort than the Iranians can with their nuclear program, nuke or not (because the Saudis funded the Pakistani nuclear programme, and above was one of the conditions).

Iran is currently "threatened" by 3 potential or active nuclear US allies - Israel, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia, so bad guys or not, geopolitics dictates that they too have to acquire nukes to maintain their survival. For the very reason that North Korea still exists while Ukraine has been invaded.

In other editions you can create a local account during setup.

In the leaked build it is possible to cancel out of the forced Microsoft account requirement in Home by closing the screen with a simple Alt+F4 however that may be changed in the final build.

Death is penultimate to... what?
> In fact, from the people I talk to, they don't even consider this a high priority. The fate of society is not a high priority in the lives of the average person.

I feel that's partly due to the fact that there is no common "us" anymore, even inside of individual countries. No feeling of a greater good to serve. It's all about individualism/individuality and small in/out groups. Politicians don't even see the future of their country as a priority anymore, it's all about "winning" against their opponents and productivity/economy, everything else is at the bottom of the list. Most people are struggling too much in their daily lives to care about these things anyway (and rightfully so).

"People" won't redefine their way of life by themselves simply because we don't know anything else anymore, we've been raised on consumerism, indoctrinated from birth that getting a 9 to 5 job and that accumulating money and gadgets are the main goals of the game, you can't tell people the rules of the game changed. People who aren't stuck in the hell of living life paycheck to paycheck are stuck in the rat race of consumption, projecting and planning their next moves to acquire a bigger house, nicer car, the new macbook, the latest camera, a larger TV, more bitcoins, &c.

The funny thing is that the system is so twisted that we think buying a Tesla and solar panels is somehow part of the solution, our whole economy is based on merchandising goods and we managed to merchandise ecology itself, as if it was a matter of simply finding an ever so slightly less catastrophic way of life instead of evolving into a whole new paradigm

> When the inevitable tsunami of refugees crashes on the shores of the rich countries they will blame the poor guys for being poor, not even contemplating the idea that our way of live was one of the main contributors to their fate.

Already the case in Europe so yeah, absolutely no way it'll play different next time.

> Any ideas on what we can do?

I think we're fucked, humans aren't wired to think about the wellbeing of large groups, even less about the entirety of the world.

Covid is at the same time the proof that we can stop a lot of things at once and somehow reduce unnecessary pollution/production/consumption(of goods and destinations), but it equally is the proof that people simply don't want to live like that, it's not enough to have a quality shelter, good food, more time, &c. we need to consume new things regularly, we always want more. I know people who had existential crisis because they couldn't go to their monthly weekend in an airbnb in Barcelona. "People" won't slow down willingly because it's inconvenient, countries won't slow down because it means their death on the geopolitical scene. My best guess is that we'll slowly adapt to increasingly harder life conditions, probably with some social uprisings and wars here and there. The actions needed for the long term prosperity of the group are viewed as hell on earth on an individual level.
I personally wish that sites that use advertising just had ads that fit the content that you're looking at.
Oh. "Discussing interesting things" for you is embracing evil and "trying a solution". What a bs.

If you think you've a right to enslave people and kidnap then if they somehow avoid to pay ransom, you're evil. Period. No lame excuses can justify such atrocity.
From my experience there's very little "intelligence" in these recommendation algorithms.

If you do nothing, they recommend what is generally popular.

If you watch or engage with content, you see recommendations for similar content to what you have watched recently.

If you "like" or "subscribe" to channels, you see more of that type of stuff.

This isn't some accidental software defect. The rich write these laws to their benefit. He's part of the class whose fault it absolutely is and considering his political position as a conservative, he advocates and helps keep up the corrupt system he benefits from directly, even if he didn't lobby for this specific tax regulation.

I will ask an older friend when he first learned of it.

> Is windows still considered the default home computing environment?

The answer is a solid and unequivocal yes. Linux is single digits in the market, Mac is roughly 20%, windows is the rest. Ask a normal person what they use on their PC, the question likely wouldn’t make sense because most people aren’t aware a viable alternative to windows even exists.

> those apps are designed with a touch-based UX

And now days every desktop app is made as if "mouse" doesn't exist. Or as if `market research has shown that bigger buttons engage more users`. I like to see more on my screen in one go.

That's why we get multiple monitors or bigger monitors. To see more content.

And everyone is hellbent on wasting it. More CPU/RAM got us more web-as-desktop apps. Higher resolution, bigger screens are giving us bigger, emptier GUIs.

> was to steal the private information of a sizable part of the world population and sell it to advertisers,

Thats not how ad targeting works.
I'm not in favour of controlling language, but it's far past the point that it's evident these institutions were not really schools. I'm sure some learning occurred, and perhaps some functioned in ways we might recognize as schools. However it seems like a disservice to allow such an elevated label for such a low and destructive institution.

Again, I'm not advocating controlling what people are allowed to call them. Just, the word "school" implies this was somehow positive or even positively intended. But these were not that, or enough were not such that it seems we could have a more honest term for what they were and what happened.

I'm not an indigenous person in Canada so I can't speak for them, and I'm not trying to. Perhaps most of them are fine with "residential school" and prefer to be more honest about the history of it. It's just so egregiously incorrect to me to continue to call them schools.

Perhaps the word 'residential' in association is enough to remind people, as we expose more about them, that they weren't actually a place meant to foster growth and learning and success. I don't know. It just seems like such a bizarre name to continue using.
“Nonchalant”? Sounded like someone in the midst of a wildfire crisis, not someone who isn’t concerned about the aftermath.

There's something to be said about going nuclear. For all that shit about proliferation, the ability of a small country to inflict drastically disproportionate damage to a larger country really cripples military offensives.
I have to imagine that by making Storage Pods 1.0 through 6.0, maybe they "encouraged" Dell (and other manufacturers) that this particular 60+ hard drive server was a good idea.

And now that multiple "storage pod-like" systems exist in the marketplace (not just Dell, but also Supermicro) selling 60-bay or 90-bay 3.5" Hard drive storage servers in 4U rack form factors, there's not much reason to build their own?

At least, that's my assumption. After all, if the server chassis is a commodity now (and it absolutely is), no point making custom small runs to make a hypothetical Storage Pod 7. Economies of scale is too big a benefit (worst case scenario: its now Dell's or Supermicro's problem rather than Backblaze's).

EDIT: I admit that I don't really work in IT, I'm just a programmer. So I don't really know how popular 4U / ~60 HDD servers were before Backblaze Storage Pod 1.0

I think the fact that it features, very prominently, an OO model (prototypal) that's pretty firmly in "please, never actually use any of the notable features that differentiate this model from others" territory is enough to fairly label it mis-designed, however far it's come. It's no accident that prototypal-heavy JS is damn near at the bottom of paradigms for approaching JS programming, beneath a bunch of others, OO or otherwise, that brush right past it, pretending it's not there.

I'd point to not making async calls synchronous-to-the-caller by default as another pretty bad design mistake. The way so many JS files start nearly every line (correctly! This isn't even counting mis-use of the feature, which is also widespread!) with `await` is evidence of this, and so's all the earlier thrashing before we had `await` to deal semi-sanely with this bad design decision.

The original scoping system was just bad. We have better tools to make it suck less now, but it was designed wrong originally.
You're visiting the site - you agree to it. Words have meaning and it's not theft, just like a store requiring you to wear a shirt isn't stealing from you, you have to buy the shirt.

It encourages others to post more these comments.

Since comment scores was removed this is the only way to signal this to others besides the original commenter.

That said it should not be overused. If it annoys someone I guess they should downvote it but I don't think there is a need to reflexively downvote every time someone adds a friendly meta comment.

Just to nitpick. What has the first to do with the second?
If I finance my free-to-eat restaurant by stealing bikes, the first part (free-to-eat) does not justify the second (stealing).
One could even argue, that If I am upfront about this and tell everybody that I steal bikes and that you have to agree to this practice to eat at my restaurant, the situation does not change much.

I suspect, your point is that If I only steal bikes of people eating in my restaurant and I ask for permission if they are seated(1), then this is not stealing. Because of the permission.
I would argue. It is an incredible.... bad deal for the one eating in my restaurant and it seems to be in bad faith.

It is even another story, if it is the only restaurant or food source in town. Then it goes well beyond stealing…

(1) And I certainly use all (bad/dark) tricks you can think of to get their permission.
Facebook abandoning the App Store just to remove the privacy warning labels would be corporate suicide. They'd just be trading one set of scaring warning labels for another (because side loading would certainly have scary labels). And they'd have way less exposure to new customers.

The iOS built in controls would still be the same.

There just isn't a compelling case for a major app to go sideload-only. This entire line of reasoning smells like FUD.

Personally, I would prefer just one App Store with Apple compromising in other ways. Lower fees, consistent application of the rules, and proper support for PWA's. How do you feel about that?
Oh great another 5gb on the install image that no one is going to use.

There are number of websites (Wikipedia, Lobste.RS, some subreddits, ...) which do archive all new outlinks in an automated way.

Why content preservation is not very popular among webmasters (why NH and 1000000s other sites do not do it?) is an interesting question for Internet philosophers.

Maybe, because people mostly want the shit to sink and not come up again?

Also, why web-archiving is biased right-wing?
I think the OP is pointing out that installing Mac apps from places other than the App Store is not what most (if any) Mac users would call "sideloading". We just call it "installing." :)

He purchased shares of his own startup at 0.001 cents, way below market rate.

To me, that's clearly not the intent of Roth IRA. This means any startup founder can simply put their ownership shares into their Roth IRA and never be taxed on their company growth.

It also doesn't seem they singled out Thiel, he has the biggest Roth IRA they know off, seems logical to discuss him the most.
