There's a term for that in journalism: "matching" a story. This traditionally involves legwork, such as contacting the same sources quoted in the first article to verify that facts are true.

This legwork is usually done by traditionally respected publications (i.e. not just copying and pasting). Other outlets and blogs with different goals do blatantly copy and paste, which produces articles less valuable than those traditionally matched.

Matching—versus copying and pasting—is important because it avoids the spread of false reports. From "The Elements of Journalism" by Bill Kovach and Tom Rosenstiel: "Originality is a bulwark of better journalism, deeper understanding, and more accurate reporting. […] In the era before curation and aggregation, the tradition of “matching” stories was rooted in the same idea. Rather than publishing another news outlet’s scoop, journalists tended to require one of their reporters to call a source to confirm it first. This tradition of matching was a way for news organizations to avoid having to credit their rivals, which in this earlier era was considered an embarrassing admission of being scooped. Yet the tradition of matching had another more important and salutary effect. Stories that couldn’t be independently confirmed would not be repeated."

A norm in the journalism industry is to credit the first publication who reported an investigative scoop, naming the outlet (e.g. this New York Times article [0] cites information reported by less-read Punchbowl News).

I see Trumpism as a cause, not a symptom.

The right was casting about for a leader after McCain and Romney (both centrists) lost to Obama. Trump (and allies) spoke loudest, and so pulled the "party truth" to the right for the Republican party.

Those Republicans who disagreed (of whom there were many) left politics or stopped speaking publicly about their disagreement. Or, over time, began to agree with the party line. Little tent politics.

> What extremists?

There's a well known group, who you can probably find by seeing who's on the Fox News homepage right now, who says things would would be considered far left.

And yet, Biden still calls these people crazy and says no to the more extreme policy proposals. Big tent politics.

My comment wasn't sharing blame. It was remarking on the fundamentally different organizations that the right and the left run, and who they allow to speak.
I find it debatable as there are countries with high corruption which have bad uses of people taxes.
Galaxies in the Local Group stay together because they are already gravitationally large enough and close enough to outweigh spacetime expansion. So, adding railways between them wouldn’t help or hurt. If you tried to add railways between galaxies that were not already gravitationally bound, they would keep moving apart and just tear the railway.

At the risk of adding yet another analogy. Imagine we have built an enormous balloon the size of a small moon. You and I are put on the balloon with our two vehicle and a steel winch. If they continue to blow up the balloon, things will get farther apart, but it isn’t going to tear the front times from the ear tires, and if we put the cars 1 meter apart, and connected the steel winch cable, it wouldn’t be an issue. At 1 meter, the balloon is expanding by a centimeter an hour. But if you drove 150 kilometers away from me, with the cable connected, and we tried to hold them together at the same distance, the balloon is moving at 25 meters per minute. To each of us, things would look and feel normal, but the pressure on the cable would snap it immediately. If you then decided to keep driving, there would be a point where you could never drive back to me because the distance between us as the balloon was expanding, would be more than the top speed of your car.
Even then we are early modern humans (Homo Sapiens) mixed with some Neanderthal.

and that's why nowadays I'm very happy to being coerced to pay 20 Euros/month for the German public broadcasting, which doesn't have the incentive to make money but rather to inform and raise questions. There have been quite a few articles in the Atlantic and The Guardian that basically said that these public broadcasters are helping to guide the public, so that these total culture wars are somewhat weakened in countries with strong public TV. However, I think this is only part of the equation, of equal importance is that voices are heard, meaning that democracy works. Where it doesn't work (well), something has to give and maybe that's why culture wars are stronger in those countries (e.g. USA). But that's just my hypothesis.
Doing America's 'Dirty Work'
That article is from February 2021.

If the author updated the article to include the paper I linked, he could no longer make this claim:

"...and (so far) no sign of ADE even with the variant strains in different parts of the world. We have things to worry about in this pandemic, but as far as I can tell today, antibody-dependent enhancement does not seem to be one of them. I understand why people would worry about it, and want to avoid it. But if you’re coming across reports that say that it’s a real problem right now and that you should avoid getting vaccinated because of it, well, I just don’t see it. Some of that is well-intentioned caution, and some of it is probably flat-out anti-vaccine scaremongering. Anyone with different data or different impressions, well, that’s why the comments are open around here!"

I'ld be curious to see how the author would update the article based on what we see from the molecular modeling in the paper that broke this week.

In the interview he states Apple will promise to send the same database to all iPhones around the world and this database can be audited by 3rd parties so we can actually verify that Apple always send the same version to all iPhones.

There is of course the argument that Apple will backtrack on this promise but that applies to everything they do so I'm not sure how much weight to give it.

>"where would our technology be if we had continued improving on simple things like the plow, without using combustion engines"

I really enjoy questions like this! One area you can see this in practice is in the field of valve amplifiers, they're hideously inefficient and unreliable when compared to modern transistor amplifiers but there's huge numbers of guitarists and HiFi enthusiasts (myself included) who love the subjective qualities of the sound they make, so an effectively obsolete technology has been kept around and developed far longer than its "natural" lifespan and looks likely to be for a long while yet.

Radio is another example of subcultures further developing "obsolete" tech, things like Morse code have been kept in modern use and further developed by amateur radio enthusiasts long after its commercial demise as a tool for communication, and even after AM radio's heavy decline in Europe you can still hear hobbyist pirates on Sunday mornings (especially from the Netherlands) keeping the ionosophere warm on those frequencies.
Sure, but even if it was an illusion, they spent a lot of time and energy building it up, just to burst it like this.

For many companies (1) and (2) are the boring choices, as the infra is already in place, well-supported, and there are existing patterns to follow for how it's already being used by other teams in your company.
The mantra I follow is "strong opinions held weakly" (meaning, strive to be as well-informed as I can, but be willing to change my mind to even the polar opposite of my current view in light of new evidence)

IMHO, the key is in realizing that your ego has a tendency to gets tangled with the notion of being right. It's a lot easier to "let go" if you internalize the idea that your worth/identity is not the same thing as your beliefs and that a lot of what you think you "know" is actually not factual knowledge, but merely interpretation or inference of previous experiences.
The whole coconuts example is a terrible straw man, but I tried to make it at least a little less infantile and look at least slightly like economics.

Yes these problems have been solvable for some time, but it’s not billionaires stopping that happening. Their job is creating companies, jobs, products and services not ending poverty. We have the resources in the public purse already. Richard Nixon came very close to announcing a basic income.

The problem is political. Too many Marxist on the left that are economically illiterate and don’t know how wealth works or even what it is (hint it’s not piles of money); and too many radical libertarians on the right that think western European style liberal welfare is communism.
> Perceptual hashes are extremly accurate.

No, they are not. Ask anyone who has worked in this space[1][2], including myself. They are incredibly common.

Two images that kind of look like one another will have similar or the same hashes. That is the point of perceptual hashing.

Does it actually matter?

An argument doesn't get any more or less fallacious based on who believes in it (the authority, in this case) – that's not an argument in itself.

It might be reasonable (a useful heuristic) to lean to the side of the expert, but the fact that an expert believes something doesn't in itself make the conclusion correct.
This kind of thing also makes the internet less searchable.

I was trying to find some information on the previous activity of a cop who recently became infamous in my area for beating and choking a man who was pleading for his life, to see if he had ever been in the news before. So I used the time window feature on Google, only to get tons and tons of articles published that same day that were backdated years because of bad change management.

See for yourself on the link to a google search below, results are filtered between 2018 and January 2021, but every single article for the first five pages is about the incident that occurred two weeks ago, mistakenly backdated years.

By Apple moving this process from the cloud to the device, they have the opportunity to make the process transparent and auditable. That would actually be an improvement. Everyone could see what was being looked for, to the point where certain groups could even inspect the image behind every hash.
you can't compose keyboard layouts, so you'd either have to stick with only QWERTY or generate separate enhanced layouts for Azerty + Dvorak + etc. discoverability would also be harder, and you'd have to hold down every key in the combo instead of pressing them in sequence holding the compose key, so you couldn't distinguish /ae/ vs /ea/ and you'd get carpal tunnel.

side-note: X11 layouts are really frustrating. there's a hard constraint of one key combo -> one Unicode character, which makes it impossible to output multiple characters. I run into this with Lushootseed, which has /ƛ̕/ (glottalized barred lambda encoded as barred lambda + accent marker), but you'd never write it without the accent in that language.

It is important to consider the context within which these suggestions were initially put forth. We had a president that claimed to have Coronavirus under control, that it was no worse than the flu and who openly and frequently cast doubt upon the only expert in the room. Perhaps had his behavior been a bit more tempered, he would have been taken more seriously.
Sure seems so. When I followed the entire stallman controversy everyone just copied the first article sometimes citing it as a source of the controversial information to deter potential liability's but never to the credit Ir good of said source. Similarly on any other niche enough or single sourced event you see this behavior as if repeating some joke said by another person.

You seem to be opposing regulation of the medical profession. I am not interested in discussing whether we need regulation. The answer is obvious to me: Regulation of the medical profession is necessary for quality of life of people in our society. I am interested in discussing problems of the regulation process.

Yeah it's pretty good to learn the language of any foreign country while being there. It's not that hard to just power through a book or two and pick up pronunciation by making friends with people who barely speak English. If you REALLY want to accelerate it get into a relationship with someone who barely speaks your language, actually - I have a lot of fun dating girls who are trying to learn English but my Spanish is good enough to give me some better chances starting out

Response to edit: Yeah the international schools here are really good, I actually have a friend teaching at a German language one for kids which is well renowned so there's even options outside of English immersion

FYI Because I had to look it up:

sol·ip·sism
/ˈsäləpˌsizəm/
noun

the view or theory that the self is all that can be known to exist.

Solipsism is the theory that only the self is real and that the self cannot be aware of anything else except itself. An example of solipsism is the idea that nothing matters except yourself. The theory that the self is the only thing that can be known and verified. The view that the self is the only reality.

I am not being political or moral. Why would you think that? Is this one of those "since you don't immediately agree with me it means you are the enemy and disagree on everything" type things?

>An image is orders of magnitude larger than a password, meaning that many more collisions.

Whole point of hashing algorithms is that they produce unique hashes for different inputs. Wouldn't a larger input value (bits of the image) make it harder to have collisions?

>One does not simply reverse a perceptual hash

So what actually is the privacy concern here? There is no way to get the original image from the hash at best you can get an approximation of it.

I guess this is suppose to be some kind of dig at me. No need to be an asshole even if you don't agree with someone.

The young people are more militant than the old people because of the invasion; so that wouldn't work. The only thing that would work (whatever working means in this context) was a program of mass extermination and colonization.

We invaded a country that was ruled by the Taliban. We installed a puppet government by force. Now that we're leaving, it's going the way of Vichy.

When we call some information source "reputable" we are saying that we are relying on their reputation of having integrity so as to not have to dig into every detail of everything ourselves. Every article linked on godlike productions stands on it's own as well by this logic. If we go by this logic there is no reputable or disreputable organization, there are only articles. Of course that defeats the whole purpose of branding your organization, so even in this case there is no reason to trust Snopes or any other fact checker, there's no reason for fact checking because you have to fact check the fact checks yourself as every article stands on it's own.

But of course that's not how it works. We rely on brands like Snopes because we trust them, because we view them as having a reputation of integrity. So it isn't fud to point out that there are shameless bald faced liars without an ounce of integrity at all running the organization.
i'm gonna get downvoted for elitism but it's very clearly "aspirational upvotes" from people that don't actually know any ML and won't ever end up learning any. to wit: no one that actually studies seriously spends this much time wringing their hands over which reference to use.

you don't keep cycling through references that seem better because that's a sure way to never make any progress - you pick a reference and grind through it. maybe with occasional double checking against some other reference sure but you never end up ditching the first one because the cost of changing notations/formalisms/etc is very very high and not worth paying almost ever (since intrinsically they're all talking about the same thing anyway). this is the reason that profs today still teach from the books they learned from 30 years ago.
Thanks for your comment and sharing your experience. I think you make a number of valid points - CBT is sometimes incorrectly seen as a panacea for treatment of many disorders, but even face-to-face CBT does obviously not achieve a 100% recovery rate (I would argue no treatment does), and in fact 50% durable recovery rates are generally considered good. The UK in-person IAPT system which uses CBT to treat people has a target of 50% and achieves something around this level ( https://www.nuffieldtrust.org.uk/resource/improving-access-t... ).

As mentioned in the original post, we do not see app-based solutions being appropriate for individuals at the moderate to severe end of the spectrum, and I think this is also reflected in your personal experience. I also don't feel that app based exercises and a human therapist are mutually exclusive, and our users have self-reported that about 15% of them are also seeing a therapist (most declined to answer that question).
I hope we get a variant that is extremely contagious but harmless so that is pushes current variants out of the way and this pandemic is over.
Ive not ever seen the positive effects of this on internet journalism rather than echoing with less details and obfuscating actual information.
Accepting equality is probably desirable, but as the test for ascending is first it will have precedence. If we accept both we probably need to defer the decision to find which it is. Otherwise there will be an inconsistency like:

>>> monotonic([2, 2, 1])
[[2, 2], [1]]

>>> monotonic([1, 1, 2])
[[1, 1, 2]]

As a separate detail, zeros are regarded false in Python:

>>> monotonic([1, 2, 1, 0])
[[1, 2], [1]]
Fun fact: The original, original demo (pre-acquisition) was Lua based. Andy was skeptical that enough people would know what Lua was so I shifted it over to Javascript.
