I'm not sure we do. Right now this supply side sux but it will likely be fixed in a few years no doubt.

The risk if we bring an overly heavy hand of government is greater issues on other areas. Sure they'll make sure computer chips are available but maybe at twice the price or half the quality as factories just need to hit volume numbers, or potential to. It might stop new entrants as e.g. now they have to build a factoryfor twice the actual sales capacity and that cost doesn't make sense. And surely a bunch more.

I do think certain items should be deemed essential and local production encouraged, off the cuff but 30% needs to be domestically sourced type thing. Like what we saw with medical equipment in the early days of covid. When times get tough, countries get selfish fast and a nation needssome level of protection for adverse events. But forcing business to over deliver capacity seems likely to bring in a whole other level of issues and likely cronyism.

At least in my non-expert view we shoot should ensure the most basic survival items like food, essential medicine and energy have significant redundancy. After that, we need to take the risk to allow capitalism to do what's its best and and create efficient production or I suspect we will being greater issues in replacement of the ones we solve.
> I have been a proponent of GrapheneOS

It's common for CalyxOS folks to claim to be a proponent / user of GrapheneOS or member of our community in order to spread misinformation about it or act badly in order to make the project look bad. You saying that doesn't make it true. It has become quite extreme:

https://github.com/bromite/bromite/discussions/1186

> https://github.com/AOSPAlliance

AOSP Alliance is simply CalyxOS and they made a unilateral decision to kick us out of the organization after we brought up the misinformation and harassment they've engaged in towards GrapheneOS. They invented completely false claims and their highly dishonest and malicious behavior towards us including this incident where cdesai (lead developer of CalyxOS) churned out lies about and unilaterally kicked us out of a 'collaborative' project without consulting anyone else is a clear example of their behavior.

> This kind of behavior is limiting the success of GrapheneOS, and there needs to be a Linus-style intervention (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18000698) to get the project back on good terms with the rest of the Android ROM community.

That's what needs to happen with CalyxOS and their relentless, vicious attacks on GrapheneOS including here, and including you spreading them on their behalf. They've engaged in substantial bullying and harassment targeting me in particular and we have ample evidence of that including the screenshots / logs where the leader of the organization (Nick) engages in vicious bullying targeting me for my depression and attempting to gaslight me repeatedly over a period of months. He very explicitly pretended to be a friend, as did cdesai, on order to get in a position where they could cause more harm to us and myself in particular.
Firefly Alpha rocket blows up during first orbital attempt
Reminds me of the US-based mask manufacturer who refused to scale up in the early stages of the pandemic, citing previous times he'd done so only to be left in the lurch when demand dried up. His main point (IIRC) was the strong conflict between the moral imperative and economic incentive.

> consider "while 'false' :" as a perfectly valid start to an unbounded loop

That sort of thing is ubiquitous in dynamically-typed languages. Even HTML: the state of boolean attributes is determined by the attribute being set, regardless of its value, so <input disabled=false> will give you a nice disabled text box. Mind you, some attributes that you might think would be boolean actually aren’t, for varying reasons good and bad, e.g. autocomplete=on|off, aria-hidden=true|false.
Not until you said that. Thanks.
If it hasn't made much money in the last 15 years of existence what is going to be the catalyst for it to become Twitter in the next 15 years? Twitter had commercial buy in from the start. People literally follow megabrands and celebrities on twitter directly and consume ads willingly from the horses mouth. It's a brand manager's dream in terms of a social network. How many reddit users are going to subscribe to /r/PepsiCo or /r/Tesla_official and willingly consume overtly sponsored posts? This is the population of internet users that abandoned digg for doing just that.

You are in a rock in a hard place with reddit as in order to monetize it, you need to fundamentally change how reddit works from the ground up and in doing that, you risk making the exact same mistake that digg made in alienating their users that lead them to reddit in the first place. Only in this case I don't think these millennials in reddits userbase are going to hop to another platform now that they are 10 years older with more complicated adult lives, and since there is no decent alternative to reddit (like reddit was to digg back in the day), they will probably just decide that maybe this is time that they cut ties with wasting so much time on the internet and focus on more fulfilling or pressing things, and half their customer base vanishes into thin air.

What I find amusing is having consulting firms ignore my requests specifically for FE developers so they can hand me some Java enterprise coder who knows their DSA because every 6 months they are re-interviewing. And why do I turn away literally all of them? It's not because they failed a code test... I just watch their body language and pay attention to their speech patters when I ask them 1 question... "How is your CSS skills?" It took me until this month to finally convince the people above me to stop wasting my teams time with candidates vetted in their way and let me handle it. I don't have time to teach folks everything they need to know about FE in the life of a 10 month project. At least bring something useful to the table.

I think you're probably right, but you chose some strange examples. I would have said Canada, New Zealand, Australia, UK, Italy, France. US authoritarianism is largely limited to blue states.

Edit: to put a finer point on it, Canada, NZ and Australia all seem to be post-democratic, post-constitutional medical police states. If you disagree with that description, please respond with what exactly they lack to be properly described that way.
I find it pretty unlikely that this entry:

> I opened my laptop, created a new Github repository, typed in the code, added some tests and wrote the README. It was probably all done in 4 or 5 hours of concentrated work.

Means handwritten code verbatim went into the repo. The focus on iteration is great - it would be unusual to stop at this point.

But if we say the written word is canon, my response is that's inefficient. It is indeed the planning that is most valuable when putting pen to paper.

There really isn't a whole lot of agency in house buying or house building though. At least not at a mere mortals price point.

FWIW a 24" wheeled shop fan from Harbor Freight, Tractor Supply, Rural King, etc etc (sometimes HD/Lowes have them) move way more air with more authority than a box fan. They will run $150 but they can be very useful to have around even when you don't need to filter the air. (Note the motors pull more current so you still have to be careful not to overheat them)

Some examples:

https://www.homedepot.com/p/Commercial-Electric-24-in-Heavy-...

Axial fans are still better for this application, but these fans are great to have around in summer evenings when the air outside is cooler than it is inside. Put it in one window of the house sucking the air outside, then open windows on the other end of the house and let the cool night air stream in. It's fantastic.
Privacy seems stronger now than when I grew up. We had phone books with our name and address in them. Our name was written inside the cover of every library book we borrowed. Neighbors were more static and knew each other and their families for decades and gossiped about each other. You could obtain a car owner's address from their number-plate by paying a $2.50 fee. After somebody got worried by that, they started also requiring ID as well as the fee. Computer hacking wasn't a crime. Phone calls weren't encrypted - in earlier generations, a lady at the exchange could easily listen in.

See I loved the official Reddit app until about 3-4 months ago. They changed the UI for viewing a post, and it's really annoying now.

Really, sometimes I feel that there are designers that are just so out of touch, and engineers feel like they have to implement the designs they're given. Really nothing else explains this phenomenon.

The thread may have more comments now, but the top ones are all still the same.

The top comment is still, "I have mixed feelings about this" and totally lumps together all "modern games" as the toxic problem this win-some-lose-some law might be "needed" for; and that's exactly the facade of nuance I'm complaining about.

Just because a law is intended to fix a real problem doesn't mean we need to prop up devil's advocate on stilts to balance it against criticism.

A government forcing tens of millions of children to log in to a centralized database to make sure they only play video games during a specific perscripted three hours/week is prima facie insane. Leading discussion about it with "mixed feelings" is utterly disingenuous and unrepresentative.
It should never have been introduced or approved in the first place.
I don't understand your complaint. They park RVs and boats in their driveways and yards? Who cares? It's their property. Why do you care what they put on their own property? Who even has time to worry about their neighbor's lawn?

They park on the streets? Unless you live on a private road, that's a municipal matter. Parking rules should be up to the city, not your HOA.

Honestly it sounds like you are exactly who the top-level comment was talking about. You care more about restricting your neighbors than your own personal freedoms.

> using the term "moonies"(President Moon has a cult-like following in Korea, celebrity-power based politics) in a cheeky, teasing manner

I mean, referring to Koreans by the name of a maligned cult they are not necessarily affiliated with (Moonies = Unification Movement) is racism, even if you think you're being "cheeky" about it.

I haven't looked into CoPilot much, but seeing it spit out a famous function (q rsqrt) verbatim on that Twitter thread was wild. So the answer is definitely yes: CoPilot, at least at right then, could and did regurgitate copyrighted code. The question in my mind now is, how much smarter will it have to get before it can decide on its own how to tread the line between copyright/license violations and writing original code? Is that a long ways off like Tesla's full self driving? Does it basically require human-level intelligence?

Or you know, just don't train it on code that isn't MIT licensed and vetted beforehand...

No. If you can afford a house in the US you can for sure afford to live in any of these places and enjoy whatever good they offer. The opposite is much more complicated. This makes you more free than people over there.

I think it will just die off like the communities surrounding extinct forums and irc and usenet. Demographically reddit skews millennial and other platforms like tiktok are more popular among gen z. At least for me if reddit hits the fan I won't be hunting for another time sink, I'll probably just spend that time on more real life stuff instead which certainly carries my attention more as I get older than spending time on reddit.
I think op is arguing that somewhere libraries should be able to have reasonably fixed budgets and not have this constraint, though more aggressive legislation that weakens publisher's rights. I think it's possible with things like reducing copyright durations entirely to get a healthier public domain offering instead of books written by people whose grandchildren or even great-grandchildren have died of old age still covered by copyright.

I actually just checked and I think there's no infinity copy ebooks on Libby at all; even books that are long since in the public domain have a fixed number of copies to borrow that presumably the library is still paying someone for per-copy.
Maybe it's just me, but I think running into a Korea-specific subreddit and calling people "Moonies" is something you do if you want to get banned.

I have never used or mentioned Google photos. It sounds like you haven’t looked at iOS photos, which is what I mentioned.

If you had you would never claim that extended attributes or symlinking would replace the experience.

You also simply ignored the other examples, like notion, or roam research.

None of these things are done better by simply having folders full of files.

If files were better, that’s what we’d be using, since we had networked filesystems before we had the web.

Freedom can mean stuff like being able to pollute and nobody having authority to stop you for example. Or the freedom to abuse another person as you see fit. That's the flipside to freedom, it enables assholes.

It would be so freeing to live in a world of no rules. But in practice that is just barbarism. It's a terrible way to run a society.
From where I'm standing, it sure looks like buying off both sides is a pretty easy/predictable way to protect the status quo.

As someone that has lived in Switzerland for a decent bit now (but am not Swiss), I'm not sure this system makes a strong case for direct democracy working. I don't think the standard of comparison should be a functioning government, but rather some estimation of outcomes without direct democracy, if that can even be estimated. It's definitely worked well in some instances, and can be seen as not having worked well in others (in popular hindsight). The country doesn't even score as highly on a Democracy Index as several others [1], not that this is necessarily meaningful or conclusive.

Kind of related is how much time is spent on private property in modern cities/suburbs. Old-style business districts would have a row of businesses on both sides of a street, with a public sidewalk and maybe a row of parking spots. New, car-friendly businesses have a huge parking lot that's private land (even though it's mostly treated as public land by the people using it). The public sidewalk is a hundred yards or so from the business, and rarely used.

HOAs are a similar situation: you might have a house attached to a private street, whereas in a non-HOA neighborhood it would be a public street.

In most cases the differences between public and private right-of-ways is subtle, but I suppose if a person wanted to make a point of defending their private property it might be more obvious. For instance, a business might be able to exclude a political protest from their property but not from a public sidewalk or street. (I'm not a lawyer and I don't know what the exact legal rights of people versus property owners in this situation is.) And I imagine it's easier for prejudiced people to make an ethnic minority feel like they're unwelcome if they're on private property.

I don't know how much of the world is like this, but something weird you see some places outside the U.S. is the idea that rural land is a sort of public right-of-way. It's not seen as weird to cross through someone's land while going on a walk or whatever. If you trample on their crops they might get mad at you I suppose, but sticking to the paths is seen as acceptable.

Anecdotally, I received an automated speeding ticket in the mail today. I went 36 in a 30. I really try to be a good driver, and generally watch my speed, but apparently I didn’t that day. But was I confronted by the officer who clocked me? No, I was the only car in sight. I received high resolution photos of my car and video is available online for my review. If that’s not persistent surveillance, I don’t know what else to call it.

Also, I have to say, the best French language reference I found was on a Hong Kong university site. It was written in English (or I couldn't use it!) and would often explain things in reference to English, but also provide a formalized definition of the behavior in English, often that I never had seen formalized.

Of course, I spent a few hours trying to learn French, didn't use it much and it evaporated. Oh well, maybe next time.

> now have powerful microcomputers small enough to fit into a USB plug

Like 20 years ago? 32 bit micros were actually not that far behind low end CPUs until they start to fall off dramatically in the 90, and post-90nm age because perf was good enough.

After nineties, CPU improvements were guided as much by software getting worse, slower, and more shoddily written, than genuine need for more raw computing power.
>They park RVs and boats in their driveways and yards? Who cares?

Indeed, I don't want broken down RVs and trucks that leak oils and fluids all over the place on the street, or on their lawn where it eventually ends up in the water table.

It also makes the area look like an industrial area, not residential.

>Why do you care what they put on their own property?

I don't want symbols of oppression and racism flying around anywhere, and especially not in my neighborhood.

>They park on the streets? Unless you live on a private road, that's a municipal matter.

HOAs can also enforce this it's not simply a municipal matter. It makes the roads cluttered and more dangerous for pedestrians, bikes, etc.

>Honestly it sounds like you are exactly who the top-level comment was talking about. You care more about restricting your neighbors than your own personal freedoms.

Not at all, I just want some simple standards so where we live doesn't look like the city dump.
There is a saying in French, "La liberté des uns s'arrête là où commencent celle des autres".
I'm not sure if it's known in English, I never read it online that's for sure, so I just roughly translated word by word :

The freedom of someone ends where the freedom of others begins.

Basically saying that living in a stable society is like signing a contract to restrain your liberty of doing anything when it's proved harmful for the others.
