I would disagree, insofar as one of the use-cases for IoT Core (and Windows Embedded before it) is for developing kiosks that run arbitrary single apps. That could include e.g. a tablet that only runs Photoshop.

But the assumption in those use-cases is that you as the system-integrator are either also the developer of the app being embedded, or at least have access to the engineers of the ISV who developed the app; and so you can get the app recompiled [and potentially slightly rewritten in the process] for the target profile (UWP) that IoT Core supports. IoT Core doesn't support just taking arbitrary Win32 GDI apps and kiosk-ifying them.

...but Windows IoT Enterprise does! IoT Enterprise is just Windows Pro LTSC but with IoT Core's virtual-appliance versioned-image deployment and management process. You can totally kiosk a "legacy" Win32 GDI app using IoT Enterprise. That's what a lot of modern billboard manufacturers and the like are still doing (until they finish redeveloping their signage apps for IoT Core), which is why you'll still sometimes see e.g. an airport terminal sign sitting around on the Windows desktop when its kiosk app failed to boot. That's an IoT Enterprise deployment.

But IoT Enterprise isn't any more minimal than Pro LTSC, it's just different, so it wasn't really the point of the discussion here. If you're a home user putting Windows on your own PC, you'd want to use Pro LTSC, not IoT Enterprise. (Unless "your own PC" is your RaspPi that you're trying to set up as a smart-fridge weather widget or something. Then maybe you do want IoT Enterprise.)

I totally get the better-for-the-kids argument, but I think there's some nuance people gloss over.

My dad's Portuguese is fluent but still has quirks to this day. Obviously picking it up from school works. But my paternal grandma never learned Portuguese and her husband died young (car crash). She never developed a social circle after that, which meant her health deteriorated slowly over time (since she'd just stay home all the time) and she ended up dying isolated in a elderly home, even though she was surrounded by people.

On my mother's side, my grandparents immigrated to be farmers, so my mom had a lot of siblings. They developed a quirky pidgin where sentences - especially when more advanced vocabulary was involved - mixed Portuguese and Japanese. This speaks to limitations of learning a language exclusively in a familial setting: some topics just never come up, especially considering age-appropriate subject matter.

I think the educational and social-outside-home components are extremely important to learning a language - most of what I remember from Japanese comes from spaced repetition from nihongakkou (Japanese school) or self study.

I think the idea that Apple is just moving rote hash calculations from the server to the phone - and therefore they were “surprised” anyone cared - does a disservice to the smart people at Apple. They’re not dummies and they didn’t think this would be an easy sell.

The question of whether we can and should build client-side scanning has been a huge and controversial issue in our community since at least 2019 — when AG William Barr wrote an open letter to Facebook requesting these features.
As a cryptographer who works on E2EE I’ve been reading opinion pieces on this, writing pieces and attending Stanford-hosted workshops since that time. Many people attended those workshops from child safety groups, policy think tanks and other tech firms. Apple was also invited and declined to attend. But to imagine they didn’t realize how controversial these systems would be — that defies belief. They would have to be living in a cave, and the Apple security leaders don’t live in a cave.

The Apple system was clearly designed to enable scanning on E2EE backup files. The fact that iCloud isn’t E2EE right now is amusing, but I think it’s safe to assume that they want to enable that feature but felt they needed this coverage. Apple doesn’t share their reasoning, but it’s fairly obvious they felt some strong pressure — largely instigated by government agencies and members of the Senate - to implement some kind of “voluntary compromise” here. This is the one they chose.

Where they were surprised, I think, is that there was so much broad negative reaction beyond the usual suspects like privacy groups. As you said, server-side scanning is already ubiquitous so what’s the big deal? My suspicion is that “server side scanning of your private files is ubiquitous” is something that is only actually well-known to tech experts. Most of the general public is ignorant about all this, and they only really get a chance to react to any of this technology when something big makes it national news: as Apple did this summer. (Putting it on your phone and making it apply to private backup photos rather than shared albums, as some cloud providers have in the past, also didn’t help.)
> It's very telling that it's the "rare" part that the Left takes exception with. Now, it's only conservatives who quote Clinton on that.

This is complete nonsense. It's not "the left" that opposes teaching proper sex ed, easy and affordable access to contraception, or providing economic assistance for the mothers who cannot care for a child. Or, for that matter, reducing the economic inequality that leads to that problem in the first place.

> Singular 'they' even when the gender is known has been popular in the English language for hundreds of years. Even longer than singular 'you'.

It seems to me that the negation qualifies your Shakespeare example for OED's explanation of "I. 2. Often used in reference to a singular noun made universal by every, any, no, etc., or applicable to one of either sex (= ‘he or she’)." That is distinct from a reference to a single, specific individual, which using "they" as a singular gender-non-specific pronoun with unrestricted usage would necessarily include (things like "Peter said *they wanted some tea"). Presumably this is what was meant by GP.
Three points: one for correct analysis and implementation, one for artistry and creativity, and one for disrupting the market of the coding test. But seriously, the only real test on larger teams is how much of a 'net positive' the person is. How much time/energy do they give or require of others and the quality and timeliness of their output. This isn't easy to measure up-front but setting a high bar for unrelated tests doesn't solve it.

We sometimes say "No good deed goes unpunished".

I've seen plenty of 2 and find it fascinating how instincts for feedback, including my own instincts which I need to improve, can be so counterproductive towards the hardest working, most committed and effective people.

Not just critical feedback, but assistance, resources and support also follow a similar pattern.

If someone's working hard on something and making clear progress when others are not, from time time they slow down or even just appear to. It's inevitable even if just due to random events.

Occasionally I've seen someone with a history of conscientious and effective work, going through a rough time, a difficulty, or whatever it may be, and be offered straightforward, non-judgemental, kindly meant assistance. That's really nice when it happens for real. But it's so rare. Not many people seem to have it in them to just offer simple agenda-free help to someone without creating more burdens.

Much more often, I've seen the conscientious high performer given gradually increasing harsh feedback even while they are still ahead of others around them, mixed with offers of "help" which are more of a burden. And other people looking for opportunities to "replace" the high performer in various minor roles, perhaps with themselves naturally, due to mistaking results and effort with status and petty-political influence.

The most insidious and ironic of these I've seen weaponized burnout itself: "You seem like you may be heading for burnout. Why don't you step down for a while", said by someone who had been politically maneuvering to take over the role and whose public dramas were a significant driver, perhaps the only driver, of the burnout they purported to care about.

It is a rough social regulation cycle for the person committed to conscientious and effective work in an environment where people say they want one thing but act to produce another.

Surely that makes it 1:1 ? A tie, a dead-heat.

This doesn’t contradict my point. Yes, libertarians believe everybody should have the same freedoms, and that’s commendable. But like I was saying, they often stop short of caring how their actions affect others, and that is inherently selfish.

I really hate the use of 'survivorship bias' these days. It makes it seem like everything is just happenstance and nothing is consequential. Ask someone who uses the term, "what would be the indicator, this wasn't just survivorship?" and they rarely do come up with something.

You can blame any success on survivorship. It's silly to do so.
Yeah, that is definitely an advanced feature. I'll be watching this repo, thank you!
Cooking, woodworking, blacksmithing, pottery, home renovations, biking, hiking, kayaking, and reading are ones I frequent. I’m willing to give anything a try once when it comes to extra curricular.
This is pointed out in the article when it says:

>“Corporate wokeism I believe is the product of self-interest intermingled with the appearance of pursuing social justice,” says Vivek Ramaswamy, a former biotechnology executive and author of “Woke, Inc.”. He argues that Big Tech pursues corporate wokeism because appearing to embrace social justice suits such firms’ commercial interests—both in terms of recruitment and appeal to their customers. It performs allegiance to identity politics while simultaneously rejecting the left’s critique of capitalism. “A lot of Big Tech has agreed to bend to the progressive left,” he says, but “they effectively expect that the new left look the other way when it comes to leaving their monopoly power.”
I'm glad you pointed that out. There are many related therapeutic functions.

While journaling I have a random personality picker which draws from a list of subjectively helpful archetypes. From favorite actors to inner child and future self, and more. Then I interview them or converse with them intuitively, with the aim of exploring the situation or problem from a new perspective.

Related is a theory that by taking the perspective of a given personality, we essentially become that personality (not person, but personality) for however short a time period, giving ourselves access to their tools for problem-solving...

Agreed, in a properly done system as described password hashes shouldn't really be exposed to this, so it's a marginal improvement at best.

Where it is important is cases where the attacker directly supplies the hash: e.g. protocols where the password hashing is done client-side, or HMACs securing tokens and things like that.

I wonder if there is any ecosystem that tries to nudge to this using the type system, e.g. having hash functions return a "HashString" type that will use constant-time comparison functions by default, and needs to be explicitly unwrapped if you want to turn it into a normal string type.

Perhaps, but that's still not something we consider state action. People lose their jobs or reputation all the time, and we don't consider it worthy of redress.

Many people appreciate the American right to refuse service to anyone; this is that same impulse exercised towards racists and bigots.

Time heals most wounds. Although it may feel like their reputation was "completely destroyed", I think many will find that they can get another job, once the immediate thunder and fury blows over.

The word “ban” is Vox’s editorialization. These laws don’t “ban” ideas—they regulate the content of what school boards can include in school curriculums. In a sense these regulate students’ “thoughts” insofar as we expect public schools to teach kids to believe certain things and not other things. But that’s the point of school! Schools inherently must decide between how to teach certain things.

In Lebanon, there’s still a considerable armenian community that came over from the 1916 when the genocide happened.

It’s also worth noting that a whole lot of them survived and made decent products. In fact, I’d say way too many of them survived for it to be a coincidence.

> Swinging from 1:4.3 to 9:1 is a change of 38X. That is RIDICULOUSLY huge.

Those numbers would not be as bad if one postulates that there's a subset of men who also have the right factors to lead to underdiagnosis, such that the right influencer with a male audience would make men's numbers shoot up as well; and that such a mens' influencer just happened to have not shown up yet.

> It is extremely anomalous to see someone present with "Tourette's" and not have any of those low level tics, but all the "fancy" ones.

Is it possible that there is an undiscovered "diagnostic spectrum" on which Tourettes is the endpoint? Like how, at some point, we knew low-functioning autism was a thing, but only later figured out that high-functioning autism (e.g. Asperger's) was a thing?

----

(That being said, I do think I agree with you that this probably isn't Tourettes of any kind; see the postscript in my previous comment. I just like to ask these Devil's Advocate kind of questions to see where they go, in case there's interesting science down one of these unwalked paths.)
Sure, I was just clarifying what GP wrote as the reply seemed to have missed/not understood a key nuance.

Also providing a little context to what I assumed was meant by “material demands”, based on the quote from GP below.

Hashes are generated for all images(I think some thumbnail is also generated ), then sent to Apple that checks each hash vs the secret database, the if(matches>=30) code runs on the server too.

I would say the scan is on the device and the check is on the server to make sure the secret database of hashes does not get leaked. The image is never encrypted and if FBI (or the corresponding national agency)comes with a warrant your iCloud data will be fully readable.

Language reform ain't language control. Reforming a language can have negative impact, for sure, but it normally has a positive goal that lies in the language itself: Simplified orthography (latest German reform), reviving a dead language (Hebrew), or simplification of writing (simplified Chinese). And yes I see the irony that this last reform was issued by Mao.

In contrast, language control is about eliminating certain forbidden words, either hoping to eliminate certain facts or thoughts by litery making them unspeakable or by creating rules that every normal person will violate sooner or later, allowing it to denounce everyone when necessary.
I think if you take these parables literally, there probably isn't a single input that will reliably cause the mind to self-destruct, but they are a cautionary warning.
