Thank you for saying this. This has been my pet peeve for a while now.

LatinX is not just appropriation, it's cultural imperialism at its finest.

It's the "woke" American cultural hegemony trying to dictate what the Latino community can call itself. It's almost disrespectful to our autonomy, our culture and heritage.

And I say this as someone who's completely pro the gender-neutral language revolution in his native tongue, Spanish.

Latinos can call themselves whatever they want, we don't need the US to start telling us how we need to gender-neutralize our community.
This is almost as thoughtful as Slack enumerating all user skin tones via 5 integer values.

Critical theory is actually what people mean when they say cultural Marxism.

Critical theory itself came out of various Marxist and Marxist-influenced academics in the mid-20th century.
Hispanic != Latino/a/x

They're not describing the same population.
There are studies that show that polyglot speakers tend to think in slightly different ways when they switch languages. It is probably true that speaking a language where every noun is gendered might slightly change the way you think, but in my personal opinion not in the way you imagine.

What I mean is that when masculine or feminine are used to describe mundane everyday objects, it's very well possible that the idea of masculinity or femininity might be de-emphasised in the mind of the native speaker, rather than reinforced.
If I were to host Elixir, I don’t think I would opt for docker. This is the one thing that prevents me from trying out fly.io
I had this issue too - all rules were deleted as they switched form regex to something else. I have no idea whether I missed anything and they really could have done an anouncement.

Awesome summary and thanks for trying it for the rest of us!

Copilot sounded terrible in the press release. The idea that a computer is going to pick the right code for you (from comments, no less) is really just completely nuts. The belief that it could be better than human-picked code is really way off.

You bring up a really important point. When you use a tool like Copilot (or copypasta of any kind), you are introducing the additional burden of understanding that other person's code -- which is worse than trying to understand your own code or write something correct from scratch.

I think you've hit the nail on the head. Stuff like Copilot makes programming worse and more difficult, not better and easier.

Perfect for a single/family user who's got multiple domains: they are obviously targeting customers like me with it (20 emails per day is over 7000 emails a year: how many did you send out the last year?).

The price is right, concerns over privacy and support are not.
Imperialism has continued, but it’s just been rebranded as a pseudo-religious movement. There is only one Truth and any cultures that disagree are “behind” or “anti-progressive.”
I don't understand it. I've never been in the minority where I live but this is how I imagine it feels being in a group that is being singled out for some reason or another. Every person is a completely unique individual and focusing on things like skin color just seem insane to me. Why not focus on the fact that we are 99.9% the same but have different experiences which make us valuable and interesting.
This is a very famous function [0] and likely appears multiple times in the training set (Google gives 40 hits for GitHub), which makes it more likely to be memorized by the network.

[0]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_inverse_square_root#Overv...
They have a great FAQ explaining that and I agree with their conclusion - all the encryption claims by other providers are nonsense and don't offer real protection.
I think the problem might be in the training data. Famous code examples are probably copied a lot and therefore appear multiple times in the training data, prompting the neural network to memorise it completely.
I was thinking risky in terms of cost/benefit.

The cost for me to give a fake email is very close to 0, and the risk of getting spam emails or who knows what is much higher in comparison so why bother giving anyone my real email address? I mean I do give it out from time to time (you can easily find it if you want) I’m just speaking generally.

Yes, but you pay per “user”. So if you want to separate your accounts, you want multiple users.

If the country in question is a nation state, that's basically the case.
The most important feature I look for is Search. Really, email servers should primarily be search engines (and should use something like Lucene for storage). With Gmail I can search the last 15 years of email instantaneously. This is their killer feature. Migadu does not even mention search.
A more verbose quote from that paper: "What makes nations unique is that they are collectives united by shared cultural features (myths, values, etc.) and the belief in the right to territorial self-determination. Thus, nations are groups of people linked by unifying traits and the desire to control a territory that is thought of as the group's national homeland. The belief in the right to territorial control is central to distinguishing nations from other collectives. Many groups hold common myths, values, and symbols (e.g., religious groups, ethnic groups, or even professional associations). But nations are not just unified by culture; they are unified by a sense of purpose: controlling the territory that the members of the group believe to be theirs."

This is almost identical to the use Bret Devereaux uses in the artice.

It is not any shared cultural feature (but e.g. a common origin myth would fit), and the people have to feel a sense of purpose, of common past and future relative to their homeland. As stated in the article, that certainly fits Native American Nations, but not the US as a whole, as Barrington discusses in the next paragraph, "Nation: Misuses".
It's also been linked to HSV-1

They have pushed a basic CalDAV (and CarDAV?) feature out on Migadu for what it's worth. I think they're new enough that they're considered beta and not in marketing materials.

Warranted or not, they have duck-typed themselves into it.
What's an imprint?
To play devil's advocate here (I don't personally care one way or another what hispanic people are typically called), I don't think polling sentiment is necessarily a good indicator of something's morality.

For reference, 75% of polled people in the US disapproved of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in the year he was assassinated.

https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/why-martin-luther-kin...

If we go by your logic of purely going off of polling, MLK, Jr. was an all around terrible man going against the wishes of the population. I don't think any reasonable person these days would agree with that.

Language is our main tool for expressing ideas. IMO that means language choices can help include more people in the conversation, or (more often than not) act as a diferenciation factor between the "enlightened ones" (woke ones ?) and the rest.

Given people stay respectful, I think that's fair to criticize languages choices and the barrier they create.

Asshole Astrology: Month of July 2021
It’s funny because when Windows 8/10 touted unification, the response from Apple talking heads was they would always need two distinct OSes…and here we are.
Do you have any proof that would refute the core point?
Let's look at the data, shall we? In 2019:

- 0.95% of CS degrees were awarded to black women

- 0.86% of degrees were awarded to women who identify as two or more races

- 1.63% were awarded to latina women

Looks like they're hiring a larger share of individuals in these demographics (1.8% hire rate in each group) than receive degrees. It's not by a lot, but it's definitely not stagnant or moving backwards.

(Note this obviously doesn't include other professions, but these other professions, at Google, aren't nearly as large a part of their labor pool. It is significant, though, considering 20% of blacks have BS degrees, and 19% of hispanics do.)

I've really soured on these efforts. It seemed to me the diversity group formed at the company I work for has a narrow focus on the specific identities that (surprise, surprise) the "leaders" on the team fit in. This is what identity politics in America is these days. It's not about inclusion, it's about using the politics of identity in a self-serving way--kinda like any other corporate maneuvering.
> I "love" how the language in the warning pretends that Facebook is a perfectly neutral party here

I saw people's screenshots of the "Help" section where Facebook elaborates on the subject of "violent groups". I'd say the language there is noticeably skewed towards the liberal left (if there is still any meaning left in those labels).
> That’s hyperbole. I‘ve been running my personal mail server on a VPS for the past 20 years and never had any delivery issues.

No email server in the world can deliver 100% (not even Gmail). Here you are claiming to have done that for 20 years straight. Well, it's not true. In fact, I'll venture as far as to guess that you've never even measured your deliverability.

Adobe creative cloud works on macOS as well. In fact Photoshop and I think Illustrator were originally Mac only back in the 90's.
I kept missing my newsletters and that annoyed me to an extent where I decided to build my own solution: https://slickinbox.com/, Slick Inbox provides you an email that you can use to subscribe to newsletters, and the app is built for reading newsletters.

There are other services out there like Stoop Inbox, Feedly & Feedbin that also does the same thing, but point being that I think newsletters are fundamentally different from an "email" and thus deserve a special treatment (similar to how Podcasts are just RSS feed underneath, but it's fundamentally a different product)

Old tactic: divide and conquer. If people stopped bickering about race, they’d quickly realize their economic class similarities, leading to things like unionization. BigCo can’t allow this, for obvious reasons.

How to Improve Time to Interactive on WordPress
Isn't this the free market at work? How would all the companies collude to collectively bring in more marginalized people? It's like saying "I want higher wages but I don't think one company raising wages will achieve that". The companies are competing because that's the system they exist in - some of that competition will be zero-sum, but according to arch capitalists some of it will be a net positive

I think it's a little silly to ask "but is it _really_ art?" To me, it feels like it's no less art than photography. Photographers don't create the world they're photographing, but they engage in an incredibly high level of curation to show the viewer something unique.

At the end of the day, anyone who looks at this and enjoys it doesn't really care if it's _really_ art. But they'll get bored with it eventually as they start to notice little similarities. That is, until they find a set of pieces generated by someone else's prompts which, for some reason, feel fundamentally different. At that point I think the "it's not art" argument starts breaking down.
That's generally the precondition for selling a bond. I don't see how that's relevant to my previous comment though.
The top voted comment is some guy saying that he knows a few romance languages and he isn't bothered by gendered pronouns. That's the depth of HN.
Oh, absolutely. The appearance of "x" instead of the "a" or "o" is an immediate signal of someone who is trying to signal wokeness, but isn't actually.
Thanks, I did some quick research but couldn’t find that info so just went with the “may” qualifier.
In the quest for universalism they're splitting the population in an ever increasing number of sub groups, the irony is lost on them I guess.

In my country it happens on both side of the spectrum, they're just instrumentalised differently, I don't think it's a left vs right thing
I get why marketing calls machine learning “AI”. I don’t get why engineers would think this is.

Dumb.
A problem I have heard female friends speculate about is with promoting women in higher positions.
If the female population is too low, and you try to get them into higher positions, two effects occur according to this theory.

First of all, with a low female population there probably aren't enough proven and qualified women to fill the desired number of slots. This leads to imposter syndrome / worry about people thinking "she only has this position because of gender". It also leads to these women sometimes doing poorer jobs, just because there aren't enough qualified women in the company to fill those positions.

Secondly, you drain the lower rungs of the company from women. This leads to under-representation in the lower rungs. Meaning fewer women getting the training time one needs to properly move up the ladder. It also means a dearth of female perspective on the lower rungs. Hurting both diversity of views, and the culture. That second point makes the company less attractive to women trying to enter the company, which perpetuates the problem.
Are you implying it's okay to call a class of people a term which they explicitly do not want you to use against them?

What sets this apart from a racial slur apart from a marginal difference in support?
Marx wrote about a theory of history in which all of history progresses through phases in which each phase is defined by struggle between classes. His view was that communism was the inevitable end of this model of history in that communism would finally resolve the class struggle. But for somebody who wishes to promote communism, the problem is if there is no class struggle, then history does not advance to their desired end state.

The original formulation of Marxism was economic, based on the struggle between the proletariat and the bourgeoisie. This conflict worked to create communist revolutions in nations with more feudalistic systems like Tzarist Russia. However Communists have struggled to create revolution in more Democratic societies with greater social mobility, or at least the perceived possibility of.

So failing to get the economic class consciousness to trigger a revolution, the modern Marxist has moved on to pushing race/culture based class consciousness as the trigger for their revolution. This is why todays Marxist is not obsessed with rich and poor but white vs black vs hispanic.

I had an 8086 "laptop" for a while in the 90s, mostly as a novelty. It took something like 10 C batteries (though I never took it anywhere as it was 5kg), had 512kB of RAM, no hard disk, two 720kb floppy drives, a full size keyboard (!), a flip up monochrome LCD screen similar to this one, and an external monochrome monitor port (but you could only use one screen at a time, controlled by DIP switches). I think it might have been this one: https://www.peterkernwein.de/Rechengeraete-Sammlung/amstrad_.... More pictures of a similar model here: https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?t=32543

I mainly used it with the external screen for reading text files and amateur ebooks, at the end of my bed.
I agree a lot of young people don't really use Facebook profiles anymore, but most people I know still use Facebook messenger. It's easy to find people because most people are on there with real name/picture, and the group chats work pretty smoothly. Granted I'm a millennial so maybe the actual kids these days don't use it at all, but I wouldn't lump it in with those dead services.

I actually think for a messenger platform it's probably a good thing that even grandma is on there. The problem with having a bunch of Boomers around is of course the social media posting aspect.
Cultural Marxism is a revolutionary leftist idea that traditional culture is the source of oppression in the modern world. Cultural Marxism is often linked to an insistence upon political correctness, multiculturalism, and perpetual attacks on the foundations of culture: the nuclear family, marriage, patriotism, traditional morality, law and order, etc. Cultural Marxists are assumed to be committed to establishing economic Marxism, in which case their cultural attacks are a necessary preparation for their ultimate goal.
You don't solve problems (or racism) by ignoring them, and your experience as a white person in another majority white country is not particularly informative on the experience of a black person in a country with the history of systematic enslavement of, disenfranchisement of, and discrimination against black people. A head in the sand approach isn't workable. It was the black employees themselves who were most vocal in arguing that the company should address race issues head-on, e.g. during the George Floyd protests last summer.
In the end be it democracy or totalitarianism there's always a small elite controlling discourse. And I'm starting to think china's is managing their country better than ours
