> Absolutely they were, that's what it means that most of Judge Jackson's ruling was overturned

Where is it said that, "most of Judge Jackson's ruling was overturned"?

If you are referring to the link I posted, the actual words were, "The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals overturned Judge Jackson's rulings against Microsoft."

Then, just five sentences later it says, "However, the appeals court did not overturn the findings of fact."
Hmm, interesting. I don't think it works as well as Google Maps for me :(. Which phone/OS are you using?

I agree that's worth noting, and I'm not suggesting a literal revival of the fairness doctrine, just noting that there are past precedents for regulating speech in the public interest. You're no doubt right that it would run into legal difficulty, and actually the corporatist supreme court would be expected, amusingly enough, to side with the illiberal left on this issue.

This is a canard though:

> Since the internet is pretty wide open, again anyone can make a website if they want, it's hard to justify compelling a platform to host content.

Anyone can make a website that no one reads, but not anyone can make a public square. As I said above, the alternatives are choked out by network effects, so the internet is not "pretty wide open" in any way that counts for public debate. It used to be, but that was before it consolidated into an oligopoly. That is why the public interest and free speech questions necessarily shift to these platforms. In the world we now live in, it's distracting to offer the prospect of "anyone can make a website" as if it were a realistic alternative.

That's not really how it works though. We've been renting out in a lower-cost area in CA since 2018 and in the first two years the average Zillow and Craigslist rental listing went from $1200 to $1800. Why? There was no visible gentrification, that neighborhood really didn't change. Most of the tenants are in construction labor and management, truck driving, nursing. etc. Their salaries surely did not go up by 50%, but the going rate for the rentals somehow did.
I've always thought that AWS conceptual model and implementation is a big mess. Root accounts different from other account, big numbers & ARNs exposed to the user, meaningless names for services, multiple names for same concepts (do I need to say Ireland-1 or is it eu-east-1?). It's inhuman and overly complex. I assume people hasn't revolted because that baroque and unnecessary obfuscation feeds a lot of consultants whose time could have been cut significantly have Amazon had someone to think before implementing such monstrosity.

I'd say you don't even need to run your local proxy on 80/443 unless it's your public-facing endpoint. Client -> load balancer:80 -> [proxy:8080 -> application:8085] or something is fine.

> As for the various grandparents talking about whatever they did at FAANG: I don't believe it

I promise you there's a lot of stuff that by-design lives in its own private network (VPC, etc.), and that won't change even with efforts to reduce reliance on corporate intranets. Your laptop gets treated differently from some application server in a cloud provider's datacenter. The latter probably has no reason ever to reach out over the Internet, it has no business even accepting connections from anyone but the (very small) set of allowed clients (probably just your load-balancer layer, plus whatever management stuff). So why allow it?

The only argument I've seen for this is that by knowing your hosts are exposed to the internet, you're forced to build for that high-threat environment, but that doesn't seem to outweigh the additional layer of defense-in-depth.

This is not to say that anyone should use that private networking layer as their only security control. So: build as if you're on the public internet, but then don't be, to the maximum extent possible.
Very interesting you said that here. I regurarly walk aimlessly, I regurarly have this impression that i have to skip a day of sleep to be exceptionally productive, and i also used to be obseessed with digging large holes especially when i was younger and able to dig like that in my parents garden.

My major background is in electron microscopy. Eindhoven is also a massively important microscopy center. This is because Philips used to build great TEMs once upon a time, which was spun out as Philips Electron Optics in the mid 90s.

That company merged with FEI of Portland, OR to become one of the largest electron microscope company. FEI a few years back was bought out ThermoFisher to become a group company. They still command a huge portion of the electron microscopy market.
The sign of the NaN might change (as you'd expect from an absolute value), but the NaN payload (which IEEE 754 envisaged might carry debug information) won't change, right?

I applied there, they asked me what I would do if there was too much work for the week. Of course I answered I would just work nights, np. No, they said: Go to your team lead tell her/him you can do one thing and discuss what to choose. They don’t want people getting burned out, they are too important. I liked that.
Any human response that can be considered evil by simply who it is applied to…is an evil response all the time. People may justify that evil by their feeling they have the “correct” moral stance, but it’s still evil and shitty to the target group. Personally, I am not willing to participate in an intentional evil to any group even if I disagree with them r are different from them. If that makes me immoral, so be it.
If this is true, why is it so hard for the US to increase enforcement funding for the IRS while purported anti-sex abuse laws like SESTA/FOSTA are passed with broad bipartisan support?
> can you really say that they have those rights in practice?

Yes, because the court system has traditionally been extremely strict, most of the time, in defending free speech, compared to other countries.

So yes, I can confidently say that the court system has defended free speech in the US, much more than in other countries, most of the time.

> If the average american can't be said to understand

Courts protecting a right that someone doesn't understand is still better than the courts not protecting it.

Sometimes our rights only matter to us when we really need them, and it is still better that they are protected in those cases.
Ah, thanks! I didn't read closely enough.
On the flip side, "think of the children" does not necessarily mean the argument is without merit. There are countless debates in which it is a valid point. For example, climate change is a big "think of the children" issue because the impact will be felt greater by children than by the people who are currently in power. I think some people have become too cynical and see a "think of the children" argument and reflexively take the opposite stance in order to be contrarian. It is basically the fallacy fallacy[1] that you see all over the place, especially in debates on the internet.

I feel like its even worse than just resorting to bad data when good data isn't available: the field of deep learning has cultivated the perception that it's robust to bad data as one of its hallmarks.

That is, you can pump relatively raw data into it and it will self-select features and then self-regulate their use so therefore most of the initial steps of data cleaning, feature selection etc are not necessary, or require less expertise. This is now spilling over into general ML so that when quacks assert that their model just magically overcomes these things and people actually believe it.

> There really is no better way. Pick DATETIME for its higher capacity, then only ever use UTC time in the database to get around the lack of timezone storage in DATETIME.

From what I understand, this would mean that you would always have to set the value of datetime columns manually (with a UTC-adjusted value) instead of being able to use 'ON UPDATE current_timestamp'.

Of course, that's unless you set the server time to use UTC (as you suggested above), which strikes me as an extreme and not-very-portable approach.

You're describing something that happened, and the data sets very much did NOT represent a smooth spectrum of skin tones. It was heavily weighted towards light skin.

> Private companies, as always, should feel free to censor what they want, regardless of positions.

And what about when the government threatens private companies with new regulations or other actions if they don't suppress certain types of legal speech? Is there a point at which extralegal government pressure to suppress speech violates the first amendment?

What about when companies "voluntarily" decide to supress anything that disagrees with the offical stance of the government and thus grants the government indirect control over that entire category of speech?

Giving companies a complete free pass for censorship creates a huge backdoor that allows government censorship thrive with plausible deniability.
Am I going insane or does the following does NOT work(?):

<code>
template<typename T>
T mul(T a, T b)
{
return ab;
}

template<typename T>
T mul(T a, int b)
{
std::string ret_val{std::move(a)};
a.reserve(a.length() b);
auto start_pos{a.begin()};
auto end_pos{a.end()};
for(int i = 0; i < b; i++)
{
std::copy(start_pos, end_pos, std::back_inserter(a));
}
return ret_val;
}
</code>

I knew it looked odd to me for some reason...I had to re-write it as follows:

<code>
template<typename T>
T mul(T a, T b)
{
return ab;
}

template<typename T>
T mul(T a, int b)
{
std::string ret_val{};
ret_val.reserve(a.length() b);
auto start_pos{a.begin()};
auto end_pos{a.end()};
for(int i = 0; i < b; i++)
{
std::copy(start_pos, end_pos, std::back_inserter(ret_val));
}
return ret_val;
}
</code>

Did I miss something??
That's fine and I understand that these rules are aimed mostly at insiders, who are more willing to comply and have skin in the game of cultural heritage.

And perhaps life really is easy. But as someone mentioned in the thread, spending $100-200k USD to renovate a property AND to basically change your career to a farmer is completely out of the question for 99.9% of the population.

At beast you would get some incredibly wealthy hobbyists who adore Japanese cultural heritage, but judging their success realistically, it doesn't look like there's many takers, so my point still stands.

Maybe the downvoters should put their money where their mouth is and go spend a few million on restoration of these properties.
I wouldn't worry too much, I have routinely done about 50-60 km/h on a motorized bike and had 0 issues. Always had the best disk brakes I could buy though.

Which is not surprising given that the episode was aired twenty and the meme emerged over fifteen years ago.
Computing the absolute value of a signed (fixed-size, two's complement) integer is not trivial either, because there is no positive i such that `abs(INT_MIN) == i`. Some languages like Java just give you `abs(INT_MIN) == INT_MIN` because:

-100…000 = ~100…000 + 1 = 011…111 + 1 = 100…000

where ~ is the bitwise complement. Even worse, in C and C++ specifically, because overflow of signed integers is undefined behavior, so is `abs(INT_MIN)`! To be able to represent the absolute value, you need to either return the corresponding unsigned type (if your language has them), promote to a wider type, or return a tuple `(carry_bit, result)`.

How often do people hit a giant stationary object in the middle of a nearly-empty freeway?
Using them it’s not, forcing people to use them it is.

It’s the argument Jordan Peterson was making, and probably one of his most misunderstood points.

> I might be misreading this, but are you implying that a subset of journalists perform investigative journalism to engage in blackmail rather than to follow-up on a lead or hunch?

It's not blackmail for money, it's blackmail for capitulation.

Suppose you have a dishonest journalist who thinks car companies should submit the location history of all their customers' vehicles to the FBI without a warrant.

You can't successfully advocate for that as government policy because it would violate the Fourth Amendment and anyway the public isn't likely to want that.

You can't use honest reporting to convince customers in the market to not buy a Ford just because Ford isn't doing that, because customers don't want to buy a car that constantly reports their location to the authorities without their consent.

But if you call up Ford and ask them some leading questions implying that you're going to publish a hit piece on them if they don't change their policy, now you're blackmailing them to change their policy. The point of the story isn't to inform the public of the company doing something bad, it's to coerce the company to change their policy under threat of slanted negative media coverage.
Even if it isn't lying, it's destruction of evidence. 18 U.S. Code 1519:

> Whoever knowingly alters, destroys, mutilates, conceals, covers up, falsifies, or makes a false entry in any record, document, or tangible object with the intent to impede, obstruct, or influence the investigation or proper administration of any matter within the jurisdiction of any department or agency of the United States or any case filed under title 11, or in relation to or contemplation of any such matter or case, shall be fined under this title, imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both.

I completely agree. I have long passphrases.

The only way I can imagine remembering a duress passphrase is to make it slightly different in some way.

So that means I'd have to keep updating my duress passphrase alongside my regular passphrase.

Either way I love this idea and I might actually start using it. I'm just trying to figure out how to set a practical passphrase I will be able to remember. My passphrases generally are in muscle memory after having entered them for a few days.

Edit: A simple system I just came up with is to use one of the numbers in the passphrase and increment it by one to indicate each level of duress.
