You can’t solve the endless chat room churn problem by adding a layer of communication stack churn on top of it.

This is why it’s critically important to have a leader on the team to guide by example and set expectations for the team. Someone who can interrupt endless chat debates and steer people back to the ticket queue or planning tools. Someone who isn’t afraid to shut down endless debate about past decisions that were already made. Someone who won’t hesitate to recognize when conversations are becoming a distraction and force them into a call/meeting.

And perhaps most importantly, someone who can maintain an updated and accessible plan of record so that people don’t try to rely on chat as the source of truth. The plan of record can be as simple as a shared word doc or as complex as any tool you can think of, but the only thing that really matters is that someone keeps it updated.

The temptation is to use the most complex plan of record tool you can find because it may look “better” but it’s usually the simpler tools that are more likely to get used.

These are people problems and you have to invest in taking the lead yourself or training someone to do it. I’ve been down the road of endlessly changing tools in the hopes that a new tool will solve our problems, but the churn and inevitable loss with each tool transition only makes it worse.
> The biggest problem in society as far as jobs are concerned is credential-ism itself. A standard public education should be good enough for a person to obtain a good middle class job, a K-12 education should be good enough for 50-60% of all jobs in the market

Why? What if the markets’ supply and demand curves indicate need for people with more than high school education, and an oversupply of people with just high school education?

Note that I think US public school education standards are basically non existent, and there should be a massive retooling to ensure higher standards (including standardized testing) and more focus on actual skills in high school so that at 18 the kid comes out with something usable.

But I do not see how or why our society can guarantee someone a certain class of living with an arbitrary amount of education.
I'm pretty sure the article was flagged because this guy apparently thinks that

> masculinity is toxic. And that’s also what people love about it, similar to how they’re addicted to the rotten rinds in cheese. All that striving for greatness is indivisible from the selfish need to inflict cruelty on your dominated foe. Take away the latter and there is no sports. It’s just exercise.

So, to sum up: Masculinity is toxic. Without toxic masculinity, sports aren't sports. Women, therefore, cannot excel at sports. And so Nike's marketing is bad.

Maybe the reason the article is flagged is that the thesis is just dumb?
I believe a lot of the sex workers expected this to happen at some point. Tumblr burned them when they got bought. So they might have some diversification, but their main focus has been OnlyFans. That was the platform that gave the best ROI.
Really? The first thing someone does with a stolen credit card is to go pay for porn? I would guess so few people pay for porn willingly that that would be a great way to trip all sorts of fraud alarms.

Anecdotally, I had a credit card number get compromised a few years ago. They used it at a Babys-R-Us on the opposite coast. I'm pretty sure they weren't buying porn.
Now can we do something about all the other spam calls please? Something like 90% of the calls I get are spam.
I think my point was that the insistence on interface purity is part of what (or emblematic of the ethos that) killed the chance of the protocol reaching mainstream adoption. But I take your point.
I have a friend who worked for 5 years at a big consultancy company and he got stonewalled for getting promoted to a team lead role because he didn't have a masters degree. Like, he was getting top marks every year at performance review, clearly knew how to do the job, but some internal policy somewhere said that you can't be a lead without a masters degree, sorry.

He did manage to arrange with them that they would pay for him to take a 1-year old masters in CS in his own spare time, and if he passes he would be promoted - and he was. Still, I'd say it was an absolute waste of time and he ended up switching companies a year later anyway.
The money for a missile could be given to the population, but then it would not go to the missile’s manufacturer. But the whole point of the war is to give money to arms makers. They are the only ones who benefit from the war and who lobby for it.
Chomsky is an anarchist and, at least long term, does not want a large “nanny” state that does everything. However, he may accept increased public/accountable/democratic power as a stepping stone away from large private/unaccountable/tyrannical power.
Of course there was a big outcry. It's like if Etsy announced they were gonna ban candles, or Kickstarter said they were gonna ban dice and cards. You think all those people would want to go create their own sites? You think it would make any sense for them to do that? Come on
Well when you apply at GAFAM you're competing against a very specific talent pool, and it's a buyers market. Maybe try applying at a smaller company?
> If somebody attacks you and intends to kill you, then you can defend yourself with deadly force. Society doesn't pursue you for violating the attacker's right to life. Society doesn't have to do any work in this case.

What if you fail to defend yourself?
A VP or Middle manager can intentionally kill off teams this way too and supplant a new team / culture. Careful out there folks, that's a painful one to experience.

Your team stays static or functionally shrinks (by adding one or more non-specific knowledge managers/PM to the team instead of individual contributors) even while the company experiences hyper growth both internally and externally.

You work your butt off while people get promoted around you.
Your team is starved and starts to show cracks.

Your work get subbed out bit by bit as you tread water until the last bit, that specific knowledge is power grabbed away and put on a 2 stream agile program and it's not your job anymore...

And that's when the "manager speak" begins about "change".
For all of the evils that spreadsheets cause, they are super easy to administer.
There's a thousand niches on AD (After Dark) Twitter. A lot of accounts have short videos, then link to an OnlyFans page for longer videos. I don't know how effective it is.

> Eg there are plenty of environmental reasons you’d need to cease execution but giving the user a stack trace isn’t helpful.

Not sure I got this part. If you want to stop the program and don't to print the usual panic messages into the console - you can log\print whatever you want and call os.Exit().

At the same time you can log stack trace without panicing.

>Or at least I think it does.

Maybe, it's just that "the code has failed and the developer needs to be informed what to fix" applies to errors just a much as to panics. The only difference is that an error is the situation during the execution where you can continue the job and a panic requires execution to stop (in most cases).

At the same time panic are 'developers only'.
I agree, why Apple is doing this is an interesting and pertinent question. I don't think it's actually because they think this will put a big dent into CSAM. So the question is: what is motivating Apple?

Perhaps it's a prerequisite for deploying end-to-end encryption of iCloud Photo Library and/or iCloud Backups. The latter in particular has remained decryptable by Apple supposedly due to pressure from the FBI. Perhaps CSAM is what the FBI are using to justify their pressure.

Perhaps it's because Apple's team of lobbyists are seeing ahead to future anti-privacy, anti-encryption legislation being justified under the guise of CSAM. If Apple can show that the CSAM problem is already "solved" then such justifications disintegrate.

Worthless? Probably depends on the degree. Miseducation is worse than the absence of education. STEM at least has some market value, but man does not live by bread alone and market value alone does not elevate the university above the level of trade school. Trade schools are a good thing. Turning universities into glorified trade schools (which they are) is not.

People need more of the intangible but true. A consumerist society is condemned to wallow in mediocrity and misery. It does not rise to the level of human dignity and maintains a level of existence better suited to worms than men.
It's not a mistake for weapons developers to look back to the 1970s, when countering nuclear-based antimissile systems was on the agenda. The soviets still have one

The Pershing II got fielded

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pershing_II

where the main benefit of boost-glide was to soak up uncertainty in the launch point and put a missile down literally on top of a target.

The materials and engineering problems of boost-glide for a long-range ICBM are difficult, but developing countries building IRBMs are leaving an easy capability improvement if they don't add boost-glide. See

Being an entrepreneur is really hard work. Yeah you can get rich, sometimes very quickly, but a lot of people just don't want to work 5-10x as hard for 0.5-100x the pay.
That sounds like lawlessness. I can't get punished when I violate rights because that would be an infringement on my rights, so there's no encouragement by me or anyone else to respect rights.
And the same can happen in tech! When I started college in the late 90s in software engineering, the market was booming. A year before I graduated the dot-com crash took place and the jobs evaporated. That was the catalyst for pursuing an entrepreneurial path (I had no choice) but in spite of things working out, I always try to be thankful for my good fortune and remember that it can change in an instant.
Obviously they are saying that yes.
Alexa currently has tumblr.com at 114 and Tumblr report about 12M posts a day this year - I'd say that probably still counts as a "top(ish) brand".

For contrast, everything2.com is at 526113.
Yes and no. It's not feasible for me, and I don't know you but I'm gonna go ahead and day it's not feasible for you either. The barriers to entry are extremely high, regulators need to be convinced you know what you're doing, as do banks, and you need to be accepted by enough places for it to be worthwhile people paying for things through you and merchants paying your fee to accept you. You can choose to do only parts of the payments processing picture and that's easier, but it's not easy. Bottom end startup costs would likely be in the hundreds of thousands, ignoring actually developing your payments platform (so just to get everyone onside and regulatory approvals etc), more realistically a budget of say low tens of millions might get one off the ground.

It was always a phrase of derision for the naivete of those who think it has ever been different, because it has always been how the world works.

You just didn't understand it until it bit you, and then you mistook it for some recent change, even though you apparently grew up with people telling you how it is.
Thank you so much for the help troy, really appreciate it.
Your average porn girl might make more to start, but unless they really take off, they aren't making very much. Also they get paid per shoot, not based on views. With OF they get monthly recurring revenue for their content. Performers can chat with their admirers to keep them interested and it's more of a patron/artist relationship I guess. With OF, they also have full control over the content they make, when it goes out, how long it stays out there and all that.

For viewers, it's definitely harder to browse than a regular porn site or pornhub or something, but if you end up finding a few pages you like, chatting, buying mementos. It becomes a lot more immersive than just scrolling around an ocean of videos.
Well in that case we can at least all agree to respect human rights in the broad sense. As doing so wouldn't cost any energy and so wouldn't be in conflict with the 'negative' right or anti-duty that OP is talking about.
Just a heads up, but the website linked at the top (https://litnerd.com/) seems to be able to scroll for a while to the right, resulting in an empty page.
Thank you for the response much appreciated !

> The other one in my head was pharmacy, but I guess one needs a Pharm. D to continue on. Being a pharmacy tech also sucks, objectively.

A Pharm D is currently one of the worst investments. Their wages have been declining since at least 2015, and stagnant since 2010.

They have no ability to generate revenue other than hawking bullshit vitamins and supplements, because they have no negotiating power against the people that pay them (managed care organizations and governments). And a few big employers compose of most of the market that buys Pharm D labor (CVS, Walgreens, Kroger, Walmart).

Not to mention that you have to work evenings, weekends, nights, and deal with the general public. Checkout the pharmacy forums on sdnforum or Reddit, they are super depressing.
The Conscience of a Human Being by Michael Huemer (2020)
TFA is pretty vague, and you could interpret in two (completely conflicting) ways:

1) The internet is a human right therefore it must be taxpayer-funded so that everybody can use it "free" of charge. That seems to be how you interpreted it, and in that case, I feel the same as you do - just because something is important doesn't mean it should be collectivized.

2) If you're going to provide internet services, you should work to make them as widely available as possible. This is the "Twitter and Facebook banning conservatives" concern. While I'm sympathetic to the "wait a minute, you can't force Twitter to let Donald Trump use their platform if they don't want", we did see this work farther down the stack when AWS banned Parler because Parler allowed Donald Trump to use it.

If the author is suggesting that a distinction should be made between platforms (Twitter) and infrastructure (AWS, ISPs, routers), and the infrastructure operators ought to choose to be as agnostic as possible, on the other hand, then I absolutely agree with him.
The point he's getting at is that human rights don't stem from the government. You have them because you're human, not because an emperor in his divine mercy gave them to you. With or without government enforcement, you still have human rights.
Why would I defend an enemy combatant? The issue is whether it is a war crime, it is not. That in no way diminishes the horrible hellscape that is war.
If you are going to uni to do vocational training such as hairdressing, massage and being a chef then something is really screwed.
It that's child pornography wait until you discover the zillions of pictures painted in Europe since the Middle Ages depicting nude people from a full range of ages just... standing naked with no sexual content.

You know, the eye of the beholder...
You did notice the bit about ISPs being a natural monopoly, though? What material difference is there between a privately owned, but well regulated monopoly, and a government owned enterprise, except the lack of profit motive on the part of the latter?
You seem to see individuals but don't want to see the society. All of us are social beings and live in the context of a group of other humans.

You seem to see everything as rights absent obligations. We have things that we need to allow or even duties to perform as members of the society.

It is laughable that in the last 50 years of neoliberalism the definition of human rights has been "highjacked." Quite the opposite, human rights have been eroded. This has happened because neoliberalism ignores social obligation in favor of profits, as if "the market" can somehow determine justice.
What I had in mind is posting them to <domain>/.well-known/report-leaked-secrets or a location looked up from the domain using DNS. Making them URLs is an interesting idea, but they are likely to look awkward (e.g. include "revoke" like your example) and get a lot of non-revocation traffic (even if we have a way to tell scanning apart from actual revocation requests, we'd probably rather only get the revocation traffic).

My professional email also mangles URLs, turning them into urldefense.proofpoint.com/... Such solutions are sure to interfere with tokens looking like URLs.
There are US laws that I can’t remember the names of which make financial institutions legally responsible (probably bad English) for crimes that happen on platforms they sell their services to.

So VISA could be fined for any trafficking that happen on OnlyFans. This is also why Pronhub had to remove almost all their videos if they wanted to keep credit card services.

As an European I’m a fan of laws that make platforms and big tech responsible for the content they house, but there is no denying that vetting that every OnlyFan sexworker is a task they can’t likely perform easily.

Of course moderation is only one of the solutions, paying money and accepting the financial damage that may come from lack of moderation is another. Of course the big banks know this, which is why they charge an insane margin for their credit card services to platforms like onlyfans, it’s likely they simply upped the price behind the closed doors.
Everything was legal until it wasn't. It was the same for Standard oil before 1911: they said it's all legal to have such a monopoly on oil.

For some people at the time, it was obvious this was an unfair advantage on the market, so they fought to make it illegal.

It's the same now. Of course Google and Apple mostly respect the laws of the land, but if a large swath of the population/industry thinks they are unfair, their position will soon become illegal as well.
Maybe not malice but also not just simply accidents - more like negligence. We can't dismiss mistakes in war as simply a cost of doing business.

> But one side tries it's best to be accountable and limit human suffering while still carrying out missions.

Is that side really doing their "best"? I feel like a lot of these mistakes are avoidable with better procedures, training, and reducing being in situations where mistakes are even possible. I'm not expecting a war to go perfectly but is tens of thousands of accidental civilian killings the best we can do?
Webcrate is a great name, however the "crate" term strongly implies archival in this context to me. So as a user, I would actually assume that it takes an archive/snapshot of every website that I bookmark. The website doesn't seem to indicate it can do this?

Because if they don't someone else will and they'll get out-developed or undercut by someone with deep pockets.

It's kind of a dark forest of startups, if you get too much attention one of the giants will snipe you out of existence... so a lot of companies take investment to keep ahead of it.
Nice job pointing out dark patterns on Adobes site when the presentation itself is using a dark pattern in the form of a box with the text "Hey, we built 29 case studies like this one. They're all free… Interested?" and a giant blue button "Yes please!".. sure you can close it, if you zoom in to find the tiny little grey X on white background in the top right corner.
Bachelor's.

I also have half of a Master's from Georgia Tech, but I was only talking about undergrad above. I've been too busy to finish (married, baby, building a house, and a new job in the same year), but I can definitely recommend the online program.

Hydroelectric drought: Complicates California’s plans for a carbon-free future
>>What if the markets’ supply and demand curves indicate need for people with more than high school education

Then that indicates the high school education is not stringent enough for the market, and should be adjusted accordingly

> and an oversupply of people with just high school education?

The market is showing currently an extreme lack of qualified people. if the market is saying there is an " oversupply of people with just high school education" but there are millions of jobs open, that means the market is telling us that a High School Diploma is meaningless to the market, which as you point out that is what many employers are saying. They are hire people with a High School Diploma and it is a crap shoot where they have basic levels of education or not because in many schools its a participation award not a skills award

This has driven employers to respond with demanding higher levels of "education" in an effort so screen people..
This sort of expects that the population is literate.

Not to be that guy, but a very small percentage of people might get lucky to get an opportunity at something, not to keep it. Time and time again I've found that what people refer to as luck (aside from inheritance or lottery) is sheer hard work and discipline.
> “Our design creates a visual pattern from combinations of up to 172 spots of light (phosphenes) which provides information for the individual to navigate indoor and outdoor environments, and recognize the presence of people and objects around them.”

That's much better than nothing, but as a comparison, the resolution is lower than a 16x16 icon, not "fully restored" like the title says.
Are you saying randos flock to this position?

And where do you get the "visual derivative" information? Apple sure didn't communicate that to me. All I know is some person may look at my pics at some point.
I'm not sure what you're getting at here. Any new batch of startups is so risky, I can't imagine a bank lending them a cent at any non-usurious interest rate until they've been in business for a few years.
