CRT went mainstream because many people equivocate CRT with a belief in, e.g., structural racism. Thus, opposition to CRT is now equated by those on the left to a denial of structural racism. The existence of structural racism has been accepted (at least tacitly) by most of American society for generations, which makes CRT on its face seem unobjectionable to non-academics on the left.

While I vehemently disagree with actual CRT scholarship because of its race essentialism and rejection of objectivity, it's kind of pointless to take that stance in regular discourse. It's not possible to explain to people that the concept of structural racism predates CRT by at least a decade[1], longer if we don't require literal usage of the phrase "structural racism". MLK, Ralph Ellison, W.E.B. Du Bois, Frantz Fanon, and many other writers were exploring structural racism long before the CRT school assembled. More generally, bifurcation of social analysis into structural and cultural began in the 19th century. (EDIT: There's another vein to CRT related to postmodern structuralism--which is not the same "structuralism" as discussed in earlier race scholarship or generally understood in mainstream sociology. CRT mixes and attempts to synthesize those distinct ideas.)

Similarly, CRT on the right has been thoroughly equivocated with Marxism and other radical theories. But Tucker Carlson is talking out his butt because actual Marxists have been scornful of CRT since at least the 1990s. Alot of the lexicon of CRT comes from Marxist discourse, but so what? Libertarianism arose from the American Anarchist movement and would still use a similar lexicon but for self-conscious scrubbing of its language. (The one thing CRT clearly shares with Marxism is belief in a categorical, singular cause of oppression--white supremacy in the case of CRT, class conflict over control of the means of production in Marxism.)

"CRT", like many things, has become another empty label thrown around in the culture wars.

Then they all copied from the same source, and what's more, they are all derivative of a GPL work (and thus they should be GPLed themselves)
I’ve had this same idea too

What if there were a “structured arguments” wiki

Each topic could have some tree structure, like side A has a list of points, click each point to see side B’s reply

Reducing debates down to their atomic points without all the fluff of reading a flame war thread

Everything must be written with the clarity and succinctness of Wikipedia including sources
That’s complicated. The Taliban were also generally opposed to terrorism, though they define terrorism a bit differently given their extreme social positions. This resulted in a large rift between the Taliban and Al Qaeda.

You could better answer the question yourself with a study of recent history in the region.
I imagine that due to simple laws of increasing entropy, any structure will eventually collapse, it's just a question of when, not if.

What do people normally do to check if a building is facing a possibility of collapse in the near future? I don't think I've seen anyone poking around at most buildings I've occupied before to check for structural integrity.
iOS has more market share in the US than Android.
Regarding paid apps, iOS has higher app store revenue than Android overall.
>> Without IP laws, how would one party force the other into arbitration?

> Contractually. (Non-participants wouldn’t be subject.)

So the "arbitration" mechanism would be useless in almost all relevant circumstances and is not a serious suggestion.
It sounds like they're targeting small deployments in the developing world, at the scale of 1 to 10 square meters, not large commercial systems.

From the article:

> In production, they think a system built to serve the needs of a family might be built for around $100... The hope is that it could ultimately play a role in alleviating water scarcity in parts of the developing world where reliable electricity is scarce but seawater and sunlight are abundant.

The problem with brine from desalination plants is that it's released at high concentration in one spot. This would not suffer from that problem.
Not in most western countries. It would be no different than running Tor nodes.

Bittorrent is more of a liability nightmare since it's super hard to block on a public network yet easy to record what IPs download certain torrents.
Not quite the same, but all races of humans have had/been slaves at various points in history.

It's not a pleasant subject, but we should not be blind to it, especially when underground and even open air market human trafficking still happens in many places around the world.
And in healthcare. Doctors always shoo me away when I show warning signs. They're not interested in getting to the bottom of warning signs. They'd rather wait until shit happens before they're interested in taking my money and solving it.

Oh and in a system where health insurance really cared about prevention, they'd pay for everyone's gym memberships.
I absolutely love Sapiens. But I don't think it's what OP is looking for.
I worked for an MSP that used Kaseya VSA. First used the SaaS version. Their "SSO" is not claims-based but an agent that may just run on a DC and copy NTLM hashes to the SaaS instance. Had an admin account compromised. Asked for logs from Kaseya. Attacker traffic came from a Tor exit node. They did zero ingress filtering. Much of their codebase is Classic ASP riddled with comments like "'fixed SQL injection." Beyond the bizarre HTTP traffic, the agent communication protocol is a black box with some VNC. Logging goes to SQL so you have to do custom work to parse or push that to a SIEM. Terrified. Moved to on-prem and stuck a bunch of mitigating controls (blocking known Tor exit nodes, blocking egregious injection attempts, etc.). Wrote custom scripts to ingest logs. I'd like to see a professional penetration test report against their software. It does not look good.
Technical aspects aside (no OS variance, etc), iPhone apps make more money than Android (2x or more, last I checked, despite being a smaller share of total phones). So targeting iPhone first is a common strategy
I just feel like you've made a lot of comments against him without being specific on what reforms are going wrong.

Here, for instance, you are talking about all sorts of generalities and abstractions and hypothetical situations. But your comment could be written exactly the same no matter who was in office and what they were doing.

Here, you paint a picture of a hypothetical line that is crossed, which is all very well, but does this really describe what has happened in SF? None of it appears to be firm statements about what has happened and who it could be attributed to.

Someone who lives in SF may have the context that I don't. And it may not be worth your while to provide it. But I'm curious, because I can at least imagine getting a job offer in the bay area and wonder whether/how much of the stuff I read is true.

Bail reform is something that's been happening in a number of places, I believe. And it sounds logical to assess the threat to the community instead of arbitrary cash bail, even if implementation is fraught.
There is also Litedom (which I created) that's in the same ballpark:

Too soon, my dude.
A more precise (perhaps less clickbaity) title would mention "Western Digital MyCloud users". I thought of their HDDs first, not some of the related products they push (which one shouldn't expect to be secure anyway: being network-connected [black?]boxes, aiming non-tech-savvy users, by a company not specializing on that).

To rant a bit more about the title, I find it rather awkward (as a non-native speaker though) when an adjective that is commonly used with a noun becomes used as a noun, and instead of that noun: as "runtime error" in some contexts is replaced with just "runtime", or "0-day vulnerability" is commonly replaced with "0-day" (even when it's not that anymore). This practice seems to just create more confusion.
This would need to first be tested in court; apparently Microsoft is happy in generating thousands (or millions) of violations, knowing most programmers don't enforce their copyright.

What an odd viewpoint.

No wonder most people don't deliver amazing things - it avoids the social pressure to keep producing, lest we believe that person is letting us down.

BTW, the article includes: "BitTorrent’s inventor is one of the driving forces behind the ‘greener’ Chia coin, which launched earlier last May."
There was an instagram post I saw (one of the boys sent it to me, I'm not a social media guy) that showed the Taliban walking through our old FOB in Afghanistan. What was odd to me about seeing that is I really had no emotional response to it. I thought I would, but I just ... didn't care anymore. Over the last few weeks I've also been sent article after article about the withdrawal from other friends (not veterans) who are deep in policy circles, about how this or that thing will mean this or that thing for Afghanistan. Does anyone in America actually care about what style of government Afghanistan adopts? Apparently these people in DC think they do.

My brother today asked me if I had an opinion on the withdrawal from Afghanistan when we did our weekly gaming session (tonight was Hearts Of Iron), and I told him "no, why would I? The war was over years before I even got there".
As I said in another thread. I have seen many condo buildings in at least superficially worse shape than the one that collapsed in Miami. Especially in vacation / resort towns.

This is tragic, but hopefully a wake up call. Condos aren’t managed the way other large buildings are. Structural engineers are catching the problems on inspection it seems, but perhaps have too little power to actually make the call on mandating maintenance and/or evacuation.

Deferred maintenance by PG&E, well, the complete lack of maitenance caused the camp fire, the most deadly and destructive fire in California history, in 2018. And freight rail lines are handled much the same way—a major derailment at the wrong place causing catastrophic loss of life is just waiting to happen.

My point, if I have one, is that we only seem to care about these things after tragedy happens, but I am not sure how much will change.

Note that there's the actual burnt region, and the region affected by the fire.

I'm referring to the latter, where for a region ~500 km / 300 mi on a side, there's an overwhelming amount of fire.

There's remarkably little news coverage of this, though the Siberian Times has run a few over the past several weeks. Again, the past few days' development has been immense.
Yeah.

Counter-argument moving vms to different providers, ips etc is a lot more straightforward so maybe they don't "control" your mail..?"

And a third way of looking at is every mail has two endpoints. You don't control the server of who sent it to you or who you send it to. Google does. So they still control your mail..?

While over any time frame a building will eventually collapse it's worth recalling that in europe many of the buildings are substantially older than those in the US.

I foresee collapsing buildings becoming more and more of an issue for fast erected buildings from the past 50 or so years

Slightly an aside but I believe that is part of the reason why leases in Singapore are often 99 years - because the government doesn't plan for them to last beyond then
Newborn humans are more intelligent than adults.

(If we use the conventional definition of "intelligence" as "capability to learn and acquire new skills".)
The best practice is to perform industry-standard inspections every few years such that the possibility of an actual collapse is logarithmically less likely than a prolonged FAANG outage, but it would appear that state guidelines in Florida do not mandate this level of due diligence.
Does anyone have a link that doesn't explode my phone on opening?
This is missing an important part of the story.

In the early 2000s slashdot.org was similar to what HN is now, with HN having more of a startup vibe and Slashdot having more Linux news. But a very similar audience, checked every day by them.

BitTorrent needed a very large scale test. They also needed a group of people technical enough to format BitTorrent and test it, and content he could license (ie that wasn’t pirated) to test it that would appeal to them.

So a post appeared on Slashdot: “Free porn”. BitTorrent licensed some very high resolution (way higher than most online video at the time) lesbian porn from lightspeed. All people had to do was install this tool called BitTorrent to get it.
Have you tried vanilla Emacs without any plugins (aka `emacs -Q`)? It's blazingly fast for me.
Your post is very disingenuous, as she admitted in the article that a lab leak was possible based on historical leaks:

"Anderson, better than most people, understands how a pathogen can escape from a laboratory. SARS, an earlier coronavirus that emerged in Asia in 2002 and killed more than 700 people, subsequently made its way out of secure facilities a handful of times, she said."

> China haven't done a very good job being open and honest about their research there.

Again, you're being a useful idiot for the CCP.

WIV investigations have been stonewalled for over a year, their own doctors and journalists have been threatened or arrested to remain silent, and they deleted dozens of corona sequences from the NIH database.

At this point I have to assume the CCP is paying you off, like the 27 virologists who signed the coverup letter in 2020.

The international conspiracy over corona GoF by virologists now includes the US, Australia, Canada and China. (Australia trained some of the WIV staff and collected bat samples in Australia and processed them, but initially denied that.)
One interesting unknown fact about Dylan's role as historian is that has spent a lot of money over the past four or five decades funding research into whether this 27 Club blues legend (Robert Johnson) really did sell his soul to the Devil ("Devil at the Crossroad") in exchange for musical talent.

I'm all for historical research, but this puts him into Isaac Newton or Goethe-like stupidities: Gravity as proof that a god exists, Farbenlehre. Even worse.
I've never seen a wide gamut demo that was impressive to me. High frame rate yes, high contrast/brightness for HDR yes, those are definitely worthwhile. But wide gamut just doesn't seem to make a big difference to justify the implementation cost. I'd love to see some content that would justify wide gamut for me. Any suggestions?

Your reasoning is flawed..

It's not a choice of "take vaccine, have risk" or "don't take vaccine and not have risk."

It's take vaccine - with an unknown long term risk, or risk covid where there are also strong signs of long term side effects. There has been research showing infertility effects, there is research showing permanent brain alternations in even some mild cases. And yes, nothing of this is fully proven yet, and we don't know how impactful it is, but the signals are there.
Well, that happened eventually :)

It is a noble goal, but will it have any real effect?

I am afraid that that pressure is already present for many people, not just influencers.
If i recall correctly solarwinds was more of an espionage operation by russia government actors. Their targets were mainly government agencies in US. The ransomware attack are from private profit-seeking groups, although I remember the head of REvil tweeted once he was neighbours with KGB's number two guy so you could argue the distinction is vague
A safe sqlite-like file-based, small database, without backend. Phones would need such a SW. SQLite is a clever hack, but not usable for safe usage. And the text search engine is still fundamentally broken and insecure, even in its 5th iteration.

One should not need PostgreSQL for small problems.
Really depends on the tree. Trees can cause problems. They can fall on homes, or the roots can get into the foundation and cause issues. You also have to worry about leaves clogging up your rain gutters and potentially causing water to leak under your siding.

With that said, they have a lot of benefits too. Large shade trees can significantly lower energy bills in the summer. And evergreens positioned properly can help break up winter winds to slightly reduce heating costs.

Dare I say in many parts of the world well positioned trees are probably the better choice at reducing energy costs than roof top solar.
We’ve been using Vue for a while now at Parq.

We initially wanted to use it as a super powered jQuery, then we ended up using Vue as an SPA for part of our app (certain route served a Vue spa to users), now we are going all into the Vue ecosystem for SPA.

I’m a fan of using Vue incrementally, but what you will find is that no editors I have found support Vue inside html templates well. When you use Vue as a jQuery replacement, it gives you some nicety, but it ends having pretty gnarly strings to put html inside of Vue components.

Vue team, if you can get editors to support your string template syntax, that would be killer. Even better, if there was a way to use single file components without the full build step (I.e. bundle up single file components the first time they are needed by a client) and inject that right into the html template that would be amazing.
So what's a good general news feed? The Associated Press shut theirs down. The New York Times doesn't update much throughout the day.

I'd like a good news feed that only has really important stories. No filler, no press release stuff.

A huge amount of people being slaughtered in a single location purely for entertainment is not really something you can offset by the amount of lives lost for the "benefit" of half a continent. It's a useless comparison.

Besides that, it isn't necessary to drag the USA into every bad situation that has ever occurred.
> questioning how useful it really is for people to decide these things themselves.

I suggest putting this into context of all the buildings in the US. This is an exceedingly rare event. Perhaps the very fact that buildings are so safe in the US lulled the residents into a false sense of security.

For example, when an earthquake hits a third world city, half the city falls down. When an earthquake hits a US city, the damage is light.

I remember the Nisqually quake here 20 years ago. The ground was rocking and rolling making it risky to walk, poles were swinging, and buildings were swaying. But there was very little damage.

Back in the 80's I was in Tokyo and woke up to an earthquake. I mentioned it at work the next day, and the reaction of the workers there was "so what".
