> He is in the top 10

You are conflating being at the top with having a majority of the attention volume.

And even if this kind of content had the majority of the volume, the presence of popularity doesn't negate efforts of suppression. If anything that proves that Facebook is more popular with Boomers as opposed to the younger audience, which is also the kind of demographic these talk heads attract.

The story at least proves that FB has a need to for certain content suppression and has failed doing so, at least in the eyes of the leftists public opinion.
It's a great upside for you. It's a huge downside for the people who actually need to live and work in an area. AirBnB is one of the worst things to have happened in some cities (I know Barcelona has reacted quite negatively to it). In Dublin, for instance, the pandemic literally doubled the long-term rental supply as houses/apartments flooded off AirBnB.
I recently got a Supernote tablet and I absolutely love it. It does a great job as a notebook, works quite well as a PDF/eBook reader and the company has been very responsive to feedback and questions. It's more pricey than the Remarkable but from the sounds of it, the Remarkable folks are pretty slow to listen to customer feedback.
So if you're looking for ways to hide data in an image, making slight adjustments to the blue channel isn't the worst idea.
Nothing stops you running a recursive resolver on your local machine. DoH is great too (provided you trust the endpoint), but what I really want is a chain of trust extending from the root to the individual DNS record, and DoH by itself doesn't give me that. But DoH sure is great for further centralizing control over internet name resolution in a few hands!
Do you know of any good mediations guides? Or in other words, what resources did/do you use to get started?

I've looked into the practice before, but there are so many guides, methods, styles, forms, etc..

I just can't seem to find a consistent source that works for me.

Sure, but the difference is that... if that happens, I own the computers. They can take down my internet connection (although I have multiple colocation centers owned by different people... I guess I could go international if I really want to add extra redundancy), but the computer is mine. The data on the drive is mine. They cannot touch this stuff. If they did, I can accuse them of larceny, and sue for damages.

It's written in the contract that they can take me offline, but they cannot touch my stuff. They can take it off the shelf for non-payment, but there's a period in which they have to retain it and offer it for pick-up.

This is wholly different than Amazon not only taking parler down, but also deleting the data, forcing them to download terabytes in three days, over a weekend.

And you're still right though. i don't actually own any IP space. In fact, IP space 'ownership' is handled by an NGO with little regulation. That's terrible. It ought to be governmental, because owning parts of the internet is an extremely important part of society. Too important to be left in any non-governmental organization's hands.

There are blockchain like systems that could solve this problem in a distributed fashion. There's also urbit. Or we could have proper governmental authority.

The pandemic literally caused housing supply in Dublin Ireland to double due to people fleeing the short-term rental market when tourism dried up. We're talking from ~1600 listings to 3000+. Even if it doesn't affect cost, which is ludicrous given those numbers, it's certainly affecting the supply at a huge rate.
This is an insane policy. The only way to know what's true vs false is by allowing free expression not supressing it.
Because Lincoln has been dead for 172 years, and lived before audio recording, so no one who could fog a mirror would think that it was his voice.

As long as you're not using resources from your employer, including things like IP or trade secrets, then it's not so obvious to me.

What you do on your own time with your own resources is your own business. If that's seen as competition, then that's just too bad. This is how free markets work.
>many alternatives for sharing information beyond Google drive

You'll be disturbed to learn then that every major social network heavily censors information in an opaque manner.

What about the elderly or others who might only know how to use Facebook or YouTube? Fuck em?
I kinda believe about a few tech based `deii-ex machina` but to me the most potent tool for solving this is just stop following consumerism. If all urban dwellers stopped using cars, and spent more times doing simpler activities, you'd have less importations, less consumption.. maybe this time can be used on fixing house energy expenditures, renewing biosphere a bit. We're sitting on a 8Billions man hour bucket.
You are assuming a professional is reading whatever the content is you are distributing and will make a rational, fair decision.

No.

It's going to be a minimum wage indentured Google servant that doesn't quite understand what they are reading but they have 17.5 seconds per case to make a decision. They will shoot first and ask questions later. What if the document is satire but they couldn't understand it? Oh well there goes one strike against your account, or maybe that's your third strike and now ALL your Google accounts are banned.

We already know what the appeals process is like. Unless you get it publicized on Hacker News et al, you won't get any chance to appeal.

I mean the whitepaper is titled a peer-to-peer electronic cash system.

[edit] It feels like Scrodinger's asset class. It's a commodity when it's being attacked for being a security. It's a currency when it's attacked for being a commodity. At the end of the day I don't care, if it's good at being laundered then you can call it whatever you want, AML/KYC is going to have to apply.

[edit] Further, entrapment is a specific legal construct wherein the government tricks you into committing a crime. If the government comes up and says "hello, do you want to do a crime?" and you say "damn right I do" that's not entrapment, that's just crime.

I have no idea if you're right, but the defendant appears to think you are wrong and that Bitcoin is in fact money, and he publically said as much back in 2017: https://i.imgur.com/7gP31ks.png

I think Neville went by a common motto: "All publicity is good publicity."

Because he didn't need to do it. Using a voice actor would have been completely standard and they would get a credit at the end, which I'm sure they'd appreciate.

And Bourdain definitely would not have liked it.
Some commenter replied it will change nothing. I disagree (but didn't downvote) - it will change the number of people in the market for a competitor. There are competitors out there and the people who are cancelling their Drive subscriptions here are going to support them financially, building a viable rival to Drive with their dollars. More competition is one of the best possible outcomes and I fully support it. Please cancel your Google subscriptions, folks!

They might be correct about chromatic aberration and the difficultly of focusing on pure blue, but the conclusion from their experiment is completely wrong.
The implication isn't that you can't work in the same field, but that you could use inside knowledge trusted to you as an employee to get a leg up, which would be more analogues to taking licks and ideas from a hit album and using them in your own.
I am sure it resonates with people here, this thread gathered more interest than I assumed.

I think I agree with the article. However it rambles on too much and the colour scheme is extremely hostile to my eyes. Sorry. I think you have a good point but you need a TL;DR. And please, white on hot pink is not a good choice.
To be honest I need to rethink the arguments of the linked article - if we just use coloured filters in front of our eyes which exclude each channel, the image (I think) remains sharp (or at least that happens with red/cyan anaglyph glasses).
How is this okay, people? Seriously, how can people turn a blind eye to this, when it's not even a secret operation or a conspiracy theory? When the administration openly describes how they're colluding with a private company to censor speech (and obviously not the kind of speech that isn't protected), without any apology or promise to correct the course, you know we're in serious trouble.

Have we really forgotten the countless times this has played out in history, and where it leads?

Also: mods - if this article is flagged for being "too political", I urge you to reconsider this one. I don't care which administration did this, but I certainly feel like it represents a major historical point in the conversation around free speech.
Sure: The Hades Canyon gets (for my benchmarks) something a little bit under a GTX 1060.

The fact that the Zen 2 is 7nm vs the Canyon's 14nm means the performance/watt will be much better. It also has significantly more RAM, and better quality: LPDDR5 instead of DDR4. This also lowers power requirements while at the same time that it improves performance.

But no, I don't think this will be as powerful as a Hades Canyon. Although it also won't have to push pixels to a 2k display like my Canyon does. It doesn't need to be nearly as powerful to provide a similar experience on a small display. (in terms of smoothness. Also higher quality gfx setting will be wasted on this display size, so there's no point worrying about it not running well on "high" textures when the difference between "medium" won't be noticeable on 720p @ 7")
Maybe it should be the scientists and journalists exploring that possibility, not random Facebook conspiracy nuts? Once an conspiracy is broven true, then FB can let it ride.

My business law professor said to just ignore non-competes. Everyone knows the judge will toss it if it's preventing you from earning a living. Any state that allows non-competes has statutory provisions for earning a living. If not, this is part of the common law in every jurisdiction. Non-competes cannot conflict with the public policy. Except for very few instances in which the previous company must show that the competition produces actual harm, they are completely unenforceable. Moreover, they must be geographically limited.

The Alabama, entire state ban, is likely overly large. A citizen of Alabama has a right to work in Alabama. Maybe they can't work in Birmingham for a year or two. But they must be able to work elsewhere in the state. This one could safely be ignored.

One thing I will note is that some companies want you to sign a contract upon leaving not to compete. Usually these are for some amount of money. These can be enforceable. However, they can't required for you to leave (although the bonus can be conditional on it). Don't sign these. They're dumb.

Companies know this too. As do hiring companies. For some reason though (and companies don't want you wisening up), many employees fear their old employer and choose not to apply, get scared, and run away. This is toxic, and it ought to be prosecuted IMO, but in the meantime, you should ignore it.

>We can have console-style computers and general purpose computers, and they can both exist simultaneously without one having to win and the other having to lose.

No, we really can't, and you probably didn't read the article if you think we can.

Making general purpose computers and the software to support them is less profitable than making smartphone-ish locked down computers. It's just a fact. The corporations will gravitate towards the most profitable options, as they always do.

"But as long as there's a market, even small, someone will make them" you say. But you're forgetting that computers don't exist in isolation. They just don't work that well on their own. The main reason they're so useful is because of networking. You can be running a computer with 100% free software, but you will probably still use online services that are not free. You need to use them to live a normal life in the world of today.

But thanks to hardware DRM, you might not be able to use these non-free services on a free device for much longer. Do you know what happens when you try to open the McDonalds app on an android phone running a custom operating system? It doesn't run. The server tells you to fuck off. It sends a message to your device's TrustZone, a black box security chip that you have absolutely no control over, asking if the device is running an original locked-down OS. The chip signs the response with its own private keys that cannot be extracted and sends it back to the server, which can then decide to reject you if it's not the response it wants. This is the reality of smartphones. It's not a joke.

And now, with Windows 11 requiring a TPM chip which is just TrustZone for x86, this is coming to desktops. And everyone is eating it up, to the point where TPM expansion boards went up in price after the announcement. Nothing will stop it.

10 years from now you will try to open some random popular website on your linux computer and it will not work. It will detect that you are not running an authorized system and reject your request. Want to order food? Too bad, use a locked down device. Want to buy something and have it delivered to you? Too bad, use a locked down device. Want to access your bank's website to check your account, or even just spend money? Too bad, use a locked down device. The bank part is already a reality, many banks today require verification using their app before letting you make online purchases, and the app only works on locked down smartphones.

Eventually, when enough network services stop working on "general purpose computers", 99.9% of the population will not want to use them anymore and they will disappear.
That's complete bullshit. The image remains sharp because the red and green channel remain sharp. It's obvious that the entire image has a nasty yellow tint. This has nothing to do with chromatic aberration, try again.
'Offering more hours' to part time workers, as opposed to 'hiring more workers' , as a proposed solution to a problem that is essentially global (and perennial) has to be one of the most glib proposals I've read in a long while.

Millions of managers and CEOs will be ever grateful for that deep insight they couldn't otherwise fathom themselves ... if only they could read HN!

Or maybe we can assume 'They Have Thought of That' and that it's a dynamic already in play. Obviously.

"Supply and demand ... It doesn't constrain you to a specific set of decisions. Don't base your argument on economics if you don't understand economics."

If you understood economics, you would realize they fundamentally constrains your choices. They are literally 'the biggest constraints'.

Small businesses are competitive, and generally keenly aware of what their margins and pricing pressures are. If they could magically create worker stability with a simple price increase -> wage increase function, they'd do it.

Raising prices by 6% across the board is not a solution to anything, it's just inflationary.

FYI California has 3 million illegal aliens [1]. That's about 8% of the population. If you consider that they have no benefits, are slightly younger, they're more likely to be working, that's a 'very solid and probably greater than 12% of the labour market'. Given that they are likely in the lower income bracket, it's probably well more than 20% of working class jobs.

That's a massive proportion and it will fundamentally affect prices for everything.

California's wealth is derived as much from illegal labour practices, paying illegal wages, and illegally not providing worker benefits.

The surpluses go into the pockets of every Californian in the form of cheap prices all the way through the value chain.

A solution could be to work very hard to ensure that every business was ruthlessly enforcing labour standards, wages, conditions and benefits. But that would price those illegal workers out of the market (the only reason they are employed is because they are very inexpensive) and they'd likely have to return home - or be permanent wards of the state. Hence the giant and obvious hypocritical paradox of the California economy.

So - in a theoretical situation you are looking at what is known as a re-play attack.

Ping the same message to all cell numbers in a block (discovering who does and does not have Telegram installed)

Once you have that, ping a message to a group of interest that has an invite only policy.

Ping that message to all in that group of numbers to see who has read/received that message. You now have a list of active in that group list of numbers.

Once you have that - delay some messages so they appear out of order to some (but not all) users in that group.

Create FUD re security (omg, did we just get hacked??? Coz messages are turning up crazy out of order aka WTF?)

I personally don't mind rethinks. I do this myself often. New insights come up all the time, I'm especially enamored with tiling window managers right now.

But what I do hate is taking away choice. A lot of these 'updates' have actually significantly removed configurability. "We removed this option because we don't think you need it" happens way too often. A computer exists to serve us. Not for us to bend to its will (or its manufacturer's).
It used to be common for businesses to refuse to take a check if it had a low check number, the assumption was the account was new and had a higher chance of bouncing. Eventually the banks let you pick or set high numbers so you wouldn't have to deal with that inconvenience.
If you have concrete examples please cite, otherwise this is cheap dirt throwing.
I can present you with a definition that specifies an infinite set. If you ask for an element, I can give you one. If you present me with a thing, I can tell you if it's in the set. In a very real sense it is completely specified.

Similarly defining an infinite collection of sets.

However, if I have an uncountable collection of non-empty sets, sometimes you can tell me how to choose one from each (for example, if I have uncountably many pairs of shoes then you can just say "pick the left one"), but within the axioms of set theory, if all you know is that there are infinitely many non-empty sets, the ZF axioms don't allow you to declare that there is a function which when given one of the sets, returns to you an element from that set.

Your statements seem to be saying "If you accept that there are infinite sets then you must accept that the Axiom of Choice is 'True'."

That turns out not to be the case. There are sets of axioms that result in systems that have infinite sets but in which the Axiom of Choice is not 'True'.

Perhaps I've mis-characterised your position.
