> People will say “oh, use a tumbler” — which is again putting a permanent “I'm trying to hide illegal activity” flag up in any of the situations where you really need it

This is probably a correct analysis. It's very disheartening though.

Replace tumbler with encryption and you'll get the picture. My desire for privacy shouldn't be a reason to "Minority Report" me.

By the way, I know you didn't say otherwise - I'm just pointing out how bad the status quo can be.

I’m trying hard to have a positive interpretation of your comments here but it really sounds like you’re saying something to the tune of “who cares they are old or fat” as if their lives don’t matter to prove some statistical point about COVID-19.. And that’s ignoring that the vaccine costs basically nothing, and taking it not only prolongs their own lives but also the lives of others with no meaningful downside. It’s like you’re trying to do some sort of cost-benefit analysis, and thinking the vaccines have some sort of gigantic cost, when they don’t.

We didn't use this term in Iraq, so I wouldn't call it "military jargon for child" like the article does.

It is common for units to come up with code words for various things, especially when the topic is emotionally charged or could be used for propaganda or intel. For example, almost nobody would use the term "FKIA" over the radio, even on a secure channel; they might say "flowers" instead.
The other way around, classic 'It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it'. Googlespeak can be a crutch in the process, but I don't think it is the root cause.

> failing to respect the local culture

Assimilation and respect are not the same. If anything, there's strong incentives for immigrants to respect the local culture and to assimilate. I dare bet there's more respect for the flag and symbols of a nation from immigrants than from natives themselves, in proportion.

I've often found myself in situations where immigrants despite facing very rude situations were telling me all the great things about France, and praising Napoléon's conquests. And it's required of them as part of the legally-mandated racist assimilation process (in France at least). Many french people i know spit on the national flag and despise Napoléon for being a bloody tyrant and colonizer.

> extract benefits without giving back

Source? Even if you do have stats, they would be skewed by the fact illegals are often unaccounted, and that most immigrants (students, asylum seekers) are not allowed by law to work and declare income. Also, measuring in purely economical terms fails to account for participation in society outside of work: school trips, local associations, arts, militant activities...

> You wouldn’t like if I moved into your house, didn’t respect your way of life and just ate your food.

Of course not, but my house is my house and i don't appreciate anyone dictating me how it should be run, not even the State. Outside of my house, there's an abundance of food and housing and other resources. Who am i to dictate how other people should live? Who gets to decide what's "respect" or not? There's not a single way of life that's fairer than others, and even within a same ethnic group / region you'll find plenty of different ways of life and cultures.

It might be a John Fonte quote. Great article on the concept:

Dr. VDH often references similar concepts, especially by US citizens who call themselves globalists. As Noam Chomsky said recently, "I love my family. How can I love a country?"

Note that the CCP uses lawfare against the US. (Even Biden's White House admin is actually a CCP lobbyist. The CCP has burrowed that deep.)
It is hard to respond to this. It is true in absolute terms.

When we often look at drones and the advent of AI and the fear of automated killing drones but lets take another perspective. AI that assists in preventing innocents being killed. Still manually controlled but an AI to override hostile action when it deems it wrong. We all focus upon AI to identify and select targets, but an AI to help identify and prevent innocents being impacted - surely that approach would be a worthy goal?

When it comes to the business of athletics, nobody seems to acknowledge the fact that men’s leagues have a decades-long head-start when it comes to marketing and brand-building (as well as a centuries-long head-start when it comes to power in many cultures).

If women’s sport was the “default” today, imagine the uphill climb men would face.

If a company is thinking long-term, investing in women’s sports today is an absolute no-brainer. There’s an essentially untapped audience of billions of people. It might take a few decades to reap the rewards (and in the meantime, you get the side benefit of being socially conscious today), but the results are there for the taking.

I was using iMessage as an example of something tedious and not overly complex but not exactly low hanging fruit that's yet to be completely reversed. The S/N or certificate parts don't even matter, if people had reversed their way through it, there would be at least an option to extract the required parameters out of your hardware and plug them in a stand alone server (in fact, IIRC there a valid S/N generator some time ago that was used to deploy osx in kvm?).

So, the idea is that even though it's not an impenetrable fortress, there are still plenty of dark places to introduce subreptious changes.

As for the human-in-the-loop part, I don't know why did you get so snarky, what I was talking about was that this is the layer that should be scrutinized the most, all of those components because even without the technology those are the people that will put someone in jail with no verifiable evidence.

Four in those countries are newly industrialized. They may be not "developed" yet, but they are getting there.

Anyway, people don't immigrate to the U.S. to be happy - they get there to get better money for their skills, and then come back to visit their home countries on vacation to be "happy"

Conversely, in more than a few asymmetric conflicts around the world, the weaker side would often parade around footage of dead children. Often carried in the arms of a weeping parent, with their tears making very visible streaks down the concrete dust on their face.

Later, we'd find out that the "parent" was a soldier that found a dead kid in the nearby morgue or hospital for the photo-op.

Or that the video clip was from three years ago, when a building collapsed due to shoddy construction.

NOTE:

I'm certainly not saying that powerful countries aren't responsible for lots and lots of children being killed, because they most certainly are, and in huge, horrifying numbers.

Instead I simply ask that we don't pretend that the lies and propaganda are perpetrated only by one of the sides involved.
Yeah. It isn't fun whith an outgoing firewall, there's always a new service trying to connect to some server, whith such funky names that you kinda have to verify that it's an official server before you greenlight it.

First, it wasn't a couple of days.

Second, I couldn't read a book. I couldn't do anything but sleep (in pain) If you are into being completely knocked out for a week, well ... you'd love this! I have met someone else who got this in their twenties and had to be cared for by their brother for a month!

Third, I'm "close" to being back to normal. It's been four months. That sounds acceptable to you?

Finally, there are other complications. It may have led to an increase in ocular pressure increasing my odds of blindness in one eye. I have a scar from the bumps that formed on my forehead.

That doing so for static assets is mostly theater.
A thumbnail is included with every safety voucher.
However, it is encrypted with a key that resides on your hardware and is unknown to Apple. So Apple doesn't have enough information to decrypt your thumbnails at will.

A secret sharing scheme is used to drip-feed Apple the key: each time a positive match occurs, Apple learns a bit more about your key. Once the threshold is reached, Apple will have learned enough to recover your encryption key, and will be able to use it to decrypt all your matching thumbnails at once.

Of course, but it's a kind of last resort thing to support a valid legal process they cannot (and probably don't want to) skirt around. They also publish data on warrant requests.

To me it's pretty clear they are doing the absolute minimum possible to keep congress from regulating them into a corner, where they lose decision making control around their own privacy standards. The system they came up with is their answer for doing it in the most privacy conscious way (e.g. not decrypting user data in icloud) while balancing a lot of other threat model details, like what if CSAM-hash-providing organizations provide img hashes for a burning American flag, and lots of other scenarios outlined in the white paper.
It's supposed to mean stuff like not asking for help when you need it, or being overly aggressive in social situations so you don't appear weak. FWIW I hate the term because it's become a catch-all for "things men do that I personally don't like".

125 would be sufficient to replace one 1200MW reactor. A nuclear power plant usually consists of more than a single reactor.

In addition to electricity, nuclear power plants also produce a lot of heat, which can be used for district heating purposes (called co-generation), as is done frequently in northern and eastern Europe. Heating is the dominant component of the final energy consumption, accounting for close to half of all energy use. This is apparent when driving around in an electric car - keeping the cabin warm easily accounts for ~30% of the consumption. Wind turbines obviously produce no surplus heat to extract
> Pretty sure the protests during Vietnam were just as large

That is the parent comment's point: there was more graphic coverage of the Vietnam available to a typical viewer, so the feeling against it was stronger.
I'm not in a manager position, but from a managee's position, I'd say the best approach is to make whatever process for advancing (in salary, title, responsibility) as clear as possible.

You can't convince people who are comfortable where they are to climb, and every company needs those people (e.g. the guy who maintains the crazy Makefiles that no one else likes to deal with, but who doesn't care to revamp the build system even though its sorely needed).
However, if you lay out the path for advancement, then everyone can either choose to go down it, or not.
If folks decide to not go down it, or get jealous seeing other people advance down it, you can tell them that if they do the same stuff, they'll advance too.

Be careful how you adapt this to each individual as well. There are a lot of words spilled here about how developers with families are penalized because they can't "crush it" late into the early morning on weekends. The hard part will be managing to make things fair across developers of all backgrounds, as you need to make sure you entice valuable employees of all types to stick around.
For me, that was unfortunately a swath of things I just can’t reach myself.

Or at least, things I can put effort into learning, but not to a baseline where I’d be considered a fit for the roles.
All very valid complaints. The external bootable disk support and the huge size of each minor update (this applies to Intel Macs too) are very annoying. Each update takes a long time to complete, and full recovery of a system is also a time consuming (and potential a data traffic cap busting) activity.

If I'm committing a fallacy, it's probably just assuming that individual American IBM executives probably wouldn't have actively and knowing facilitated genocidal policies. Also that if German IBM employees did do so, that's on them, not necessarily US execs who may have had no knowledge or awareness of it.

That turns out to be false though, it's seems apparent that US execs had a pretty good idea what their machines were being used to do at last up to 1942. Not in detail, they probably weren't aware of the specific activities happening at say Treblinka, I don't think anyone in the US did, but they were aware that German government policy was the registration and oppression of Jews and other minorities and that IBM machines were facilitating it.

I make a lot of use of Miller at work and it has been a godsend. People tend to underestimate tools like this, but I'm able to answer a lot of questions about our data that other people would take longer for or don't have the capacity to check. It's great as a first step and if anything more complex is needed we usually spin up a python script. So it's very much in the philosophy of small composable tools but for records.
