Because Greenwald helpfully published his correspondence with his editors (https://greenwald.substack.com/p/emails-with-intercept-edito...), as a former journalist I can tell you that the term-of-art for that is "editing," and that this is precisely what editors do every day for every journalist (especially in the better quality organisations). And yes, in many cases editing might reflect the biases of the publication. Editing in the WSJ has a different ideological bias from editing in the NYT. You can think it's bad, and you can even call it censorship if you like, but just so you know, when journalists say "editing," this is the thing they're referring to.

This is why many professional journalist were peeved with Greenwald when he presented the exact same experience all journalists face every day as a normal part of their job as censorship. I guess editing is a censorship of sorts, as is code review and manager approval, but just as programmers say "code review" when they mean that particular kind of censorship, journalists say "editing" when they mean the very ordinary kind of censorship in that correspondence between Greenwald and his editors. When you get a job as a writer, you accept that the editors will "censor" you, because "censoring" is their job, and "being censored" is a part of yours. Like countless journalists before him, Greenwald wasn't happy with the editing his piece received, so he left for a venue with editing that's more to his liking, which in this particular case means virtually none.

> effectively replacing the PSTN & email industries

I could see a path to Matrix replacing email (and it's the only one of the current candidates I would be happy with doing that), but how could it end up replacing the telephone network? Does it have voice capability?
I have an app on my iPhone that works pretty well (PictureThis). Probably does about the same thing as this.

I noticed that the following clause in their Ts & Cs:

does not have punctuation after the last sentence.

I'm not a Grammar Nazi[0], but that tells me that the sentence was changed at the last minute.

>> you have an extreme outlier event ...

It's an outlier sure, but how extreme is unclear.
France being a developed nation (say 5 - 10% of global population at the time). Jeanne being upper middle-class (again say 5% of France).

How many with the potential to live a much longer life did not do so because they lacked Jeanne's social advantages? Or did actually live long, but were not documented.

If we could model these premature deaths and fit them into the curve, how much less extreme would Jeanne appear to be?
In addition to this: traditional media organizations provide a training space for new writers, journalists etc. You can argue that that strengthens the status quo, but Substack provides nothing to promote new talent.
But is it any good?
You can. People have suggested the Element foundation to publish "red blue green yellow" versions of element with just a different app id for this.

I wouldn't be against it (the _clear_ distinction between accounts is important!), but element is already a memory hog. You really don't want multiple instances running.
It's permissively licensed FOSS. If the primary maintainers go against the community and can't be reasoned with it will be forked. If a fork doesn't end up having enough momentum to maintain it then perhaps the original wasn't actually doing such a bad job after all.

This issue is hardly unique to Matrix.

Why it’s hard to find treatments for early Covid-19
You are ignoring the main point of the grandparent. Even excluding the possibility that an upstream is compromised. Who is going to check all the patches by hand in debian/patches?

If someone is going to insert vulnerabilities, they are probably going to hide it well as an innocent-looking patch. So, you need a C security expert. Moreover, they probably need to do this work full-time to inspect every patch, since you do not really know what you are looking for.

As the recent covert introduction of vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel [1] and Debian OpenSSL incident [2] have shown, catching patches that introduce vulnerabilities is hard.

[1] https://lwn.net/Articles/853717/
[2] https://lwn.net/Articles/282038/

At any rate, I think the approach taken is fine. The project is actively upstreaming changes to Debian. But if you care about security, etc., it is probably better to wait until the changes have landed in Debian and you can install vanilla Debian.
Once upon a time, the TV only had 3 apps on it and you had to get up to swipe between them.
They flip fast but you can't see it. You can see Tesla fight some local environmentalists in the news while they are building a new factory but you can't see an existing car manufacturer switch over an existing factory to 100% EV. When the change happens it appears instantaneous.

First of all, good luck. I love sci-fi and always happy to find new authors!

Write about what you like. Your philosiphical question is indeed interesting. The question of "Emergence of soul" in moder Christiany Theology is related to the one of yours. Catholics accept the Theory of Evolution and use the emergence idea to do it so.

Some non-requested advice:

1. Learn TV tropes and don't include them in your stories. For example, don't include "Morse code" in your writting as many sci-fi series and movies include.

2. My native-tongue is not English so this comment is going to be extremely biased. If you use some non-standard lexicon (like in Dune), include a dictionary in your website (or in the same book).

That is not true. It is the US alone whose conscience is tarnished. If it wasn't for the US, I am sure the rest of the developed world would not stand for such injustice.
Interesting that their competitor Sage is having almost exactly the same outage, which started at roughly the same time: https://status.sage.com/

I agree that it can be hazardous. But I would like to add that level 3 cars have driver monitoring making sure that the driver is looking at the road. Much better than nothing!

Still, the handover in some of the car brands I have tested are really dangerous - silently hands over to the driver without any notifications.
You talked about weight gain, in absolute terms. A novice powerlifter can easily put on both more absolute weight and absolute strength in a year than a newborn.

No. This is a fundamentally different idea. This is not a bookmarking/archiver/knowledge base/search engine. For my personal searchable knowledge base I personally use DevonThink. This tool is crazily different -- it screenshots your screen and makes your entire screen history searchable. That's game-changing because it captures information that you don't consciously choose to save or store. That's a whole class of information that's not available with existing tools.

> The question is, do you trust it? Do you trust taxi / uber driver to drive you while you're asleep at 1am, drunk?

In practice, it sometimes turns out afterwards that you did, albeit perhaps involuntarily: When the driver wakes you up saying "Oi, we're here now!"

> Technically it can be defined as a self-driving car, because it can bring you from point a to point b, but the case of where people should trust their life on it is a different story.

You do that with the taxi / uber driver whether you're asleep or awake.

Alf was pretty big all over the world, we even had a dubbed version here in South Africa. It was no fun as an adult to see the movie version and have him sound so weird.
Nope. The UK also has plenty of tarnished conscience (we were the mandate holder for Palestine immediately before the creation of Israel and played communities against each other, as we normally did in our colonies). The French also played their dishonourable part in carving up the middle east with us. Plenty of guilt to go around.
My immediate thought is that this could be quite dangerous if used by inexperienced foragers. It’s very easy as a human to misidentify poison hemlock as cow’s parsley, for example, which is a lethal mistake.

It’s a very cool project though, of course.

Do you have a threat/security model? Perhaps, the project is not aiming for world dominance. But if it is, it would be nice to have integration with a secure element to store secrets, application sandboxing (so that a chat client cannot read your banking session), etc.
Slack's valuation in 2019 was over 20B. 30M ain't much.
A decision came down in January to drop ongoing support.
This included removing previously working functionality.

Here was a discussion from January:

Ok, it's actually 4 popups, 2 of which are modal:

- "Verify login" (now always skipping this one because I need to do it every single time I login, and I need to login every time I visit the page)

- "Are you sure?" (Yes, I really don't like this one because I'm only skipping because verifying doesn't help)

- "Verify session" (okay, not modal, still occludes parts of the page. Also skipping, because it's useless since I have to repeat it every time)

- "Help us improve element by sending user data" (No, I don't want to send user data)

Needless to say, I don't enjoy starting up Element.
I don't trust a taxi driver to safely take me to the destination. But taxi drivers don't claim that their cars are self driving. So what's your point? The fact that some other human is driving the car doesn't mean that the car can be called self driving.
VW did this with the e-Golf and e-Up. The e-Golf was a lousy EV in terms of range and it was expensive. The e-Up is moderately successful.
The article is written very unilateral, e.g. it doesn't consider the possibility to share office space if some colleagues are not in the office at the same time.

Great questions, thank you for you responding.

It is a small park, 600ft square, but conservation means we would like to map tree locations precisely. Half a trunk diameter would do: around about 6”.

In metric that’s around 200m with accuracy of 200mm.

Budget is up to $500. We have time and tech ability on our side, so don’t need a Total Station (something I’ve learned about recently) that can do everything, but it would be nice.

It has not been trained on domestic animals, garden flowers or humans, or pictures with restricted access, such as images of large predators
maybe that would be their ASMR equivalent
I'm quite outside your user base, and can't provide suggestions along those lines. I'm also not in marketing and sales, so it's a bit of blind-leading-the-blind here.

The "pay what you want" model is very tough. Most people "want" to pay nothing.

You have (putative) email addresses for some of your downloaders. You could ask them. Perhaps as part of a short survey?

It's currently easier to do the "free download" than use the pay option. You could remove the "free download" link and have only "Pay what you want $", defaulting to $15 as it is now, with an option to pay $0.

You could switch to nagware.

I'm hoping that my giving feedback here might encourage others to chime in, even if only to explain that I'm wrong. ;)
> 2) The license for Element is Apache 2.0. A fine choice for any OSS project looking to maintain a healthy ecosystem of contributors for decades to come.

The problem with Apache 2.0 is that it's incompatible with GPLv2. That's the main problem with copyleft licenses, they are made as if they were the only FOSS licenses in the world and just introduce incompatibilites between different camps. Apache 2.0 vs GPLv2, GPL vs CDDL, GPLv2 vs GPLv3[1]. I prefer to go with permissive licenses and save myself the headache. Regarding Apache, a common solution is dual-licensing under Apache+MIT (e.g. the default for Rust projects created with Cargo), which takes care of this problem.

You can sleep in all cars, but in most only once.
This is why many professional journalist were peeved with Greenwald when he presented the exact same experience all journalists face every day as a normal part of their job as censorship.

That's one version, but another way to interpret it is left-leaning journalist outfits made the 2016 mistake of focusing too much on Julian Assange and the emails fiasco around election time. In their minds, that cost Hillary the election, and they didn't want to do the same thing again with Biden and his son's laptop. And seeing as how virtually no left-leaning publication reported on it, this seems the more likely version of events.
Apparently, Xero is an online accouting SaaS. Never heard of it before.
People can (and do) that in completely old-fashioned cars. "Juuust close my eyes a little bit, on this flat and straight stretch of the road." And many times, it works (as in "no crash"). Look, autonomous driving - and without any computer, too! ;o)
I wish Safari better adopted standards that make progressive web applications (PWAs) possible. Chromium-based browsers are much more progressive in this area. The skeptic in me wonders if Apple is intentionally dragging their feet so there is no viable alternative to downloading apps from their App Store.
Updates that slow down the phone. Apple has built planned obsolescence into the phone. Good luck repairing an iphone.
It’s not misleading, it’s vague. It is in fact about collision detection, maybe just not the kind you assumed at first. It’s also not clickbait.
For sure, then set the seeding and upload rate limit. In general torrent is still the more reliable (decentralised) ways to share large files.

As someone looking to end up in one of these roles over the next few years, this is very helpful!

Does something similar to this exist for engineering management or other similar high-level roles in other career fields? I'd be curious to see things like schedules for them.

Edit: also, maybe it's me, but at some point every link on every page turned purple. A little irritating; hard to tell what I have or haven't opened.
Tesla has a perverse incentive not to "wake up". It's advantageous to overpromise than to admit the hard fact that self-driving (in a strict sense) cars may potentially not be feasible for a long time.

Doesn't help that the company is owned by a person who defines himself as somebody who "sends people to Mars".
Or perhaps our industry should stop putting everything into the web browser, for fuck's sake. It's a browser, not an operating system.

She sold her apartment for a fixed per month amount. Sure, you need to have the apartment in the first place but that doesn't sound rich to me.

Further, if my neighbor dies, I do not have any insights in the paperwork. So at that point, I only know that that nice older lady from upstairs died. If you then ask me 60 years later if that older lady was the mother or the daughter, I am not sure I would know. Besides, I would probably be proud of someone like her in my neighborhood, so I might be careful to refute her. Afterall, you get a lot of prestige from having the longest lived person in your country, city or neighborhood.
It's the combination of a simple tool type (many free and proven alternatives), a relatively professional usage pattern (many potential users already set up with something good enough) and, I'm afraid, lack of compelling novel features that are worth testing and/or paying for and/or taking the trouble to use something other than a general purpose image editor for. Some specific features are perplexing: where is lossless PNG recompression, with size benchmarks? How do you convert PSD and raw formats to simple images?
I agree with you that level 3 is temptingly dangerous in an automobile situation. I spent some time trying to place where a light aircraft autopilot sits on that framework and conclude that it's closest to level 3 and is generally used effectively to reduce workload and drudgery of cruise flight.

I'm calling it now: this is going to be HUGE. This is insane: it's unlocking access to a whole class of data that was previously inaccessible. This is not for information that you consciously choose to save, organize, and store: for that there are millions of note-taking apps out there. This app allows you to search information that you did NOT consciously record by capturing your screen history in the background. That set of data: stuff I've seen but did not save is not available anywhere except your browser history, and even that is not full-text searchable. This captures information from ANY app, not just your browser. It allows you to answer the question which no other app can: which app did I see that piece of info in? Right now the only alternative to this kind of app is your brain, and this can rightfully be called a brain extension.

Calling this a personal search engine is a bad idea. It needs a better name. But I know this is going to be one of those paradigm-shifting-innovations because it's allowing searchable access to a whole class of data that was previously inaccessible.

I love the idea of screen-shotting in the background, but I don't need the OCR + Search Engine, because I already use DevonThink, which does OCR + full text search really, really well. If Apse just stores its screenshots to a folder on the hard-drive, that's all I need.

from looking at the page, it looks interesting, and it might be something i would find handy, for blog posts or my photography site. my question: are you asking for a payment in the app? Looks like its a "pay what you want" offering, but is "free" an option? when the app opens and you use it for months, does it pop up and ask for a payment?
