>But of course, there is no way to create a reader mode that works for all web pages -- and that fact is one of the main arguments for competing with the web rather than trying to improve or fix the web.

Web developers go out of their way to break Reader Mode. What incentive would they have to create content for a platform that competes with the web, which actively limits their ability to deliver ads and degrade the reading experience?

In any case, I imagine that a ML powered Reader Mode engine would perform significantly better than a semantically powered engine. It should be fairly straightforward to train a ML model to make a visual distinction between the actual content, and the ads and other garbage that pollutes webpages. Crowdsourced training data would increase the accuracy even further, while limiting the ability of developers to defeat the reader mode.
This is a great idea. My current role doesn’t require any kind of BI reporting but the next time I need to build a dashboard this will be the first thing I try.
Checking installing on an older tablet: EInkBro works, though having it display colour is ... slightly disconcerting.

This is exactly the sort of problem cryptocurrencies were created to solve. Nobody should need some payment processor's permission for anything. People should be able to get paid in cryptocurrencies as if it was cash.

Monero is ideal for this sort of thing.
Would it work to tell them you needed some time away from work to treat some serious health issues, and that you are doing better and are ready to get back into the swing of things?

IMO burnout is a serious health issue.

Also, I don’t think career goals have to be “lofty”. Showing up every day and doing good work should be enough in a healthy work environment.
Giving a third dose of the vaccine would probably also give people in the two-dose group additional protection against the Delta variant. The question is whether that additional protection is actually worth the additional doses of vaccine required and the side effects. There are arguments in the mainstream media that giving those extra booster doses would be outright immoral because they could be used on people in the developing world who haven't been vaccinated yet; those arguments never get applied to requiring the previous-infected to get vaccinated, presumably because vaccination is a partisan political topic.

Key stopped working? Oh people have been complaining since 2016. And Macrumors and 9to5Mac Apple apologist still to this day call it a minor issue that blown out of proportion. And the whole issue only got noticed once a writer wrote a hit piece and YouTuber reporting similar issues which their video and clips going in total 20M+ views. i.e Apple only acted when the PR was bad enough. Sounds familiar?

> Please don't spread confusion about what "free speech" means.

I'm not confused.

> Choosing to not be a dangerous idiot by having dangerous idiots on your show during a pandemic is not "censorship" or anything remotely close to censorship as it is commonly, and correctly, understood.

When someone decides for me that "dangerous idiots" should not have a voice -- for whatever justification -- I'm against them having the ability to act on that impulse. The wonderful thing about free speech is that if you don't like it, you're free not to listen to it.

Every censor has started from the premise that they're doing good. I don't agree with your opinions, and I'm not so feeble-minded as to be unable to decide for myself what I see.
I've never had to do any port forwarding on my local router do torrent anything, I'm not sure what you were experiencing but it might have been transient.
I agree with everything that's already been said in this thread, but I've noticed one thing that hasn't been discussed at all.

I live in a rural area where network connectivity is poor at worst and intermittent at best. I spent years watching Rogan on YouTube with nothing but network problems. Watching Rogan was a chore in the previous scenario, and YouTube did not make it easy.

Once Rogan moved to Spotify, I never had a single problem with network connectivity. I could use the app to seamlessly switch between audio and video, and it was easy to both find and browse previous podcasts and quickly queue them up to play or watch. I could never do this before in a poor connectivity environment, but Spotify made all of this possible.

Then do something else! There is a world beyond unicorns and FAANG companies.
> But the article uses "almost all" in the formal sense? Which, by the way, also has pretty intuitive meaning, in my opinion.

By formal sense, do you mean everywhere but a finite-measure set? Zero-measure?

I'll use finite-measure because it allows for intuitive constructions like "almost all real numbers are outside the closed unit interval 0 <= x <= 1".

But, there are still some constructions that a layperson might expect to hold, like: "almost all real numbers have fractional part < 1e-100", or "almost all positive numbers are of the form x.y with 0.y < 1/x" (thanks, harmonic series).

I think that without formal training, we're especially bad at reasoning about dense sets such as the set of rational numbers, compared to, say, the reals.
I don't know how this shit works. But earlier this month I was showing my girlfriend a Halloween costume I googled on my phone. I visited the website for maybe 10 seconds, I did not log in or create an account. A few days later I got an email from PayPal offering me a $5 coupon for that website. WTFFFF. It made me want to go full-nuclear on the privacy front.
That's because they were dealing with idiots, if you don't want to be treated like idiots, don't be idiots.

Not just to the individual, people getting infected after vaccination are more likely to spread the infection to people that are immunologically naive to the virus than people getting vaccinated after recovery.
He can always move back to YouTube after his Spotify deal is over, no problem.

Reading this I'm wondering if I simply lack the willpower to get that burned out. When I start getting miserable and overloaded for a while, I tend to "burn out" in smaller ways and for shorter periods. Maybe I'll just become less productive for a few days or wake up with a massive headache and have to take the day off. I'm not particularly proud of these things but now I wonder if the alternative is worse.
If I were to summarize the Greek situation it is a story about two countries that hate each other but share the same currency. Unfortunately there is no more nuance to be had. It really is that simple.

I can tell you don't have kids.
The best solution is not a vaccine that works for a few months requiring multiple booster shots meanwhile the rest of the world cannot get enough for one shot. And then allowing the rest of the world to fly in.

Putting all your faith in the CDC and choosing not to allow yourself to form your own opinions is an interesting strategy. It absolves you of any responsibility. Do you vote? Choosing someone to make decisions on things you are not an expert on would seem like a huge responsibility you wouldn't be qualified for. Do you leave those decisions for others?
In many countries a for profit company cannot accept "free" contributions, as this is in breach of minimum wage regulations and volunteering. E.g. here you can only volunteer for charities.
Almost none of the numbers of the form 1/x have definitions. Definitions have finite length, so there is only a countable number of numbers with definitions. But there are uncountable number of numbers of the form 1/x.
Yeah, but they don't compare all of the combinations right? Maybe comparing no vaccine and previous infection to one dose and previously infected plus the other comparisons are enough?
I used to order boxes of Ubuntu CDs, when they still shipped them for free, and would hand them out to students at University; the pitch that it had a full free office-compatible suite and a C compiler was enough to get people to readily pick up discs.

I mean, it works out basically as well as dark matter. Both are consistent with some observations, and inconsistent with others. Last time this happened we simply postulated wave-particle duality, which is alone the same lines as what Sabine is pursuing.

Amputation. Powerful memes. Where have I seen this combination before?

Addressing it head-on: Galatians 6:13.

Explicitly fighting it by redefinition (how pomo!): 1 Corinthians 3:18-19; Colossians 2:11.

Saying that it is beside the point: Galatians 5:6.

Dismissing the practice as exclusionary: Romans 3:1,28-31.

It shows up again and again.

Christianity deals with it thus: The old blood sacrifice is obsoleted by the new sacrifice -- the sacrifice to end all sacrifices, the Lamb of God.

Surely if we look in other faith traditions we will also find, in some of them, efforts to combat this sort of thing. It seems to crop up again and again with memes. They want to mark people.

> If you have the financial ability to, don’t feel like you can’t quit your job. Your sanity is worth it.

Alternate phrasing: If you don't have the financial ability to stop working, you can't quit your job. Your sanity is not worth it.

> I needed to completely remove any feelings of pressure, or any external, and internal, obligations. “You decide what to watch on Netflix because I literally can’t.” I’ve eaten more takeout in the last few months, than the whole pandemic; I didn’t have the energy to shop for groceries, or cook. I desperately needed to enjoy things again - so I could remember what that was like - so I could get back to enjoying ‘productive’ things too. Remember that producing recovery, relaxation, or joy for yourself is still being productive.

There are loads of people that don't even bother with cooking or groceries or enjoying things or having a sense of productivity. A lot of us are busy doing the capitalism because capital is the only sensible way to escape labor and any disruption would be very costly.

What the author considers "burned out", most would consider just another day. It only becomes "burnout" when you're wealthy enough to consider converting your labor time into self-care time for some months.

Also, taking time off is probably not even good advice. If you've always been miserable with the employed lifestyle, you're probably going to be just as miserable when you are forced back to it. Maybe more so.

Plus you lose out on those months of earnings, which is not good because 4 months of pay now is way better than 4 months of pay in the future. Assuming, that the goal is to eventually not be forced to sell your time for money.

> My boyfriend told me to stop working. It wasn’t work, and it was great. I was learning something. Completing something. Doing something because I wanted to do it, not because it was the next urgent thing that needed to happen. It felt like work used to feel like. That’s what I’m looking forward to again.

I have no idea how someone whose career path is McKinsey->Google->GitHub could possibly have a great work experience where they're learning and building and following their personal interests because they wanted to do it and not because it was the next urgent thing to build.

Maybe I just really suck at working in tech, or PM jobs are way easier than engineering jobs, but everything feels very urgent for my employer while actually being a giant waste of time for me personally. I do it because of the compensation, which I invest, so eventually I won't have to do it anymore.

I love this - your commitment to being an engaged/active (reading) parent has totally paid off! To add some color here, that's kind of the equity problem we hope to address by being strictly B2B for now. Majority of our students today come from Title 1 schools (ie schools where 92% of the population comes from low-income families and receive free breakfast and lunch programs). Both parents are rarely even around/present (which was the case for me growing up as well). If a parent is present, they are (on ave) working 2 jobs to make ends meet or English is not their fluent language. That's why the 42% of grade 4 students reading far below their level is highly skewed towards Title 1 school population (though reading is generally in decline across the board regardless of socioeconomic status). Litnerd provides a level playing field for students who don't have parents that can read to them and be as engaged as you are are with your son (which I 100% admire and commend you for). 65% of US schools are Title 1 classified schools. This is a problem that effects majority of Americans and a B2C first approach completely neglected this audience. Finally, for transparency, we charge the district between $30-50 per student for a full year's worth of materials (books, curriculum/lesson plans, live stream teachers/actors, video episodes, our SaaS tool etc).

>We also say things like "70% of people do X", when in actuality the underlying study "extrapolates" from a smaller population via statistical analysis.

Isn't that approximation because we will never really know how many people exactly do X.

>All these statements are attempting to do is summarize a more complex/nuanced statement in terms that a lay person can relate to. It could also be that people are deliberately overloading the meaning of the words "size" etc, which is one well known mechanism that cause mutations in languages over time.

Are they overloading the meaning of "size" or offloading it? Because again nobody really knows what real size or cardinality of anything is so they offload it to some other future term or meaning just like you said "which is one well known mechanism that cause mutations in languages over time."

I'm not a mathematician but I heard from them say that it is better to use word unbounded than infinite because infinities are tricky.

That would have lower bandwidth, no easy way to switch countries, and your server IP is completely static and identifiable (worse privacy). And it's more likely to be a datacenter IP which is blocked.
I think it's more about feeling the pressure that they cannot let development get out of control. Whatever userland-visible behavior they adopt, they have to basically commit to it forever, or else risk breaking whatever userland software decided to depend on it. Userland is mostly built on free contributions, so you can't just have userland follow your changes around.

I'm sure there's lots of pressures to get all sorts of stuff into the kernel, and so a need for firm rejections.

More than the support, what's impressive is that what is considered a high-end product needs so much assistance in 4 years. I have changed 3 MacBook pros in the past 5 years, all broken beyond the possibility of use, and because of defects.

Youtube automatically switches to the lowest bitrate if it detects a slow network. Was it still too slow at 360p?

I used NewPipe to download the YT vids ahead of time. It has the option to download only the audio streams, so a lot of bandwidth can be saved that way as well.
If you dont upgrade the OS they cant claim their installation rate and push their new API along with other API depreciation. So generally speaking I am pro OS upgrade.
But I do think they somehow turn off certain optimisation for older devices. It is the same with iPhone as well. i.e New OS is only optimised for current set / latest devices.
