Also, your statement about trans people having a "lack of self-acceptance" is laughably incorrect. Coming out as trans is one of the most radical acts of self-acceptance there is.
What's inexcusable is for a business entity to apply discrimination on moral grounds. Ideally, politicians should also stay away from the moral debate. We've seen what this can lead to.

Reality here is that godaddy gave an unreasonably small time window for a site shutdown, simply because of their fear of the backslash from the public causing PR damage hence revenue loss.
Reading this reminds me of the days in the 90s when programs could target 10+ different Unix systems and shipped as giant tar balls of code. The C code consisted of giant #ifdef <UNIX VENDOR> blocks to accommodate how different Unix systems might handle a couple system calls.

It wasn't uncommon for the wrong block of code to get included so you had to figure out how the compile target's system call worked, how your system's system call worked and modify the code accordingly to get it to compile (and hope it worked). This was the 1990s so getting code to compile on Linux wasn't a high priority (since Linux was still in its infancy).

Fun times.
The development of masculine features or otherwise in no way necessitates the development of a matching gender identity.

What exactly do you think being transgender means?
I find it morally agreeable in the small but am worried about the larger implications.

Other than my agreeing with the moral position in this case, how is this different than a baker not making a cake for some particular customer?

We can’t reasonably be making “this type of refusal to do business is okay, but that one is not” based on moral agreements of individuals, especially when it comes to utility and infrastructure providers (which arguably bakers of cakes are not).
Very nice ! Wish I could build the schema, then this would be Microsoft Access in a terminal !
> woman describes witnesses to her being groped by a co worker, and all the witnesses just shrug and say nothing

Surely they are only alleged witnesses until they testify?

How else do you tell the difference between a witness who actually saw nothing? [Or do you just declare that scenario to not exist?]

And that there is the violence in the woke - no due procedure. If the claimant said it happened, then it happened - let's move on to sentencing.
Correct. I actually pasted it with line breaks, but hn will remove them unless you have two breaks together. Everything on separate lines would have been too big. It's not too hard to guess where the words separate, though there are some funny close calls, like "communist bearded" and others that I shan't type.
Gaslighting? Your proposed scenario is:

- Send colliding images

- image gets uploaded to icloud automatically

- image _also_ collides with private hash <- completely unclear how this happens

- Only the colliding images are looked at by apple and are determined to be innocent

- user goes on a list (This is an imagined scenario)

- User is reported to law enforcement even though the images are innocent (This is an imagined scenario)

- Law enforcement uses this hypothetical report to file a warrant (This is an imagined scenario)

- Law enforcement uses the hypothetical warrant to extract images that are completely innocent, and somehow build a case around this

- The "List", which is entirely a hypothetical of yours, "leaks" (This is an imagined scenario)

Which also requires:

- Apple does not counter the meaning of "the list"

- Apple is not sued for vast quantities of money

I expect the first argument is that none of this matters as long as "the idea" is out there, the reputational damage is already done. Except if that's true, then none of this is necessary at all, just make the accusation.

So, sure, continue to thread the needle between "They are automatically sending all information to the government, so promises are meaningless" and "This new process, on top of them potentially sending all information to the government, somehow makes it worse".

I mean, this is all a million times more difficult and less likely than just, like, sending them CP in the first place. Or uploading it to their Gmail or any other cloud they use. Or just send a report that they have it to the police without actually doing anything.

I am a trans person and quite frankly your suggestion to wait in line is deeply insulting.
Ibram X. Kendi: Any disparity in group outcomes is proof of a deeply flawed and malicious system. The darling of American academia and corporate. You can either have equality of opportunity and accept that the outcomes will be disparate, or have equality of (group) outcome. You can't have both. Your friends have not thought through the consequences of the current dominant ideology.

People are downvoting you because they don't trust that your argument is in good faith. It's a foundational argument for manipulatively moving goalposts, and sketchy as far as redefining commonly accepted words. No, 'woke' and 'liberal' don't make sense to paint as opposite ideologies, much less set up straw-men for trying to plant the idea that 'woke is abandoning liberal ideas, you wouldn't do THAT, would you?'

And that is why you're earning downvotes :)

This is honestly a great HN thread for wilfully burning karma in fires of brigading. I know my own interaction with it, is in the full knowledge that if I do correctly identify and explore ideas, I'll be massively downvoted for sheerly tactical and ideological reasons. You could hardly have a thread less conducive to the stated aims of HN discussion.
But OP's comment isn't specific. It's quite general.

A specific summary would at least include details about how AOSP is open source and auditable, so if you de-Google a google phone (which is something that is actually possible, unlike Apple phones) you can be more confident that it isn't spying on you. Other relevant details are that Apple phones are entirely closed. No one can be confident of anything that this black box does. Everyone's lowered their guard because Apple says "no no we're on your side". This move shows Apple actually is not on your side.

Little details like that, damned as they may be, are what make this an upsetting topic.
I really didn't want to get into this, I just wanted to point out how we've already "breached" that whole "if you make this optional will people choose it" line. You're now attaching a moral argument about how only the "fuck you, I got mine" people will say no to taxes.

And as a side note: I, as a libertarian/an-cap, would be perfectly fine with paying for all manner of things (with taxes) if I could choose how it was spent to some nominal degree. Here we are in a discussion about government surveillance, which would probably be a non-issue if we all just had the ability to slide that slider next to the "NSA Contribution" heading in our tax-contribution forms.
Oh boy! We used to have a lot of fun with this back in high school!
hasn't foot binding been dropped thanks to ruthless supression of the practice during maoist china?
Freedom of speech includes the freedom to choose which speech you want to be associated with.
This really struck a chord with me as a parent of two toddlers.
The west, capitalism and meritocracy are not beyond criticism. Those ideals aren’t perfect and fail millions of people. Self critique is important and after all, aren’t they entitled to exercise their fee speech?
Storytelling is important because when you just tell people about a 1 degree (C) rise in average global temperatures they don’t understand because they know they can’t even tell the difference between 21C and 20C, so what’s the big deal?

Most people simply don’t have enough relevant education to even know what to make of the raw data.

China has for the majority of it's history been a northern Mandarin Chinese oriented country. So it's not exactly a shock they'd push for this.

As they should. People get fired for being racist. People should get fired for being homophobic.
If by "some particular customer" you mean a protected group, we've already figured out this distinction in the United States: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protected_group#United_States
Huh?

Don’t companies have the freedom to choose who they do business with?

What exactly is “leftist takeover” about not hosting a website that’s used to spy on and report citizens for “crimes”? This is something I expect to see in an authoritarian country. Not the United States. It’s something I expect from Big Government invading people’s lives. What’s next? Maybe a “leftist” state will create a site like this for reporting gun owners? Maybe you can start reporting people who drive from California to another state to purchase 30 rd mags instead of what’s legally allowed in California? Or better yet maybe you just don’t like the 2nd Amendment neighbors you have so you anonymously report them. What’s the worst that could happen? Maybe the police show up and make that person’s life a living hell. Nothing like passive aggressive SWATing. You can quickly see how this spirals out of control.

This website is like the exact opposite of what we need in the United States. It’s the kind of thing communist countries do.
Unions have been on the decline for decades going back to the deregulatory and anti-labor policies of Neo liberal governments and that probably has a lot more to do with the problem than pronouns
It also blocks the paywall in some webs that aren't too well designed (the content is loaded under a frame that hide it). It's great to have such a good tool.
Having a wiki page is not usually a good proxy for academic consensus, especially for a controversial topic and especially when "Criticism" is a big chunk of the article.

My "proof" is the fact that every academic I know in history, sociology, and political science laughs whenever the topic is brought up. This is across institutions.
What people have so far missed is the nugget burried way down in the small print.

Apple are doing this because they have a child porn problem.

The biggest suprise of this whole bruhaha is that _facebook_ of all the companies come out looking better than apple.

Whatsapp essentially had the same issue: people using it to share nasty stuff. despite similar encryption issues, whatsapp manage to report hundreds of thousands of instances of nasty stuff, without putting in client side filters.
Such stuff is available. E.g. makers documenting their journey on YouTube.

The gov cannot directly limit speech except in certain, very limited, cases. Instead they get corporations to do it for them. Which is currently very legal.

Well so what? Was suppressing men an actual tactic that contributed to progress?
Yeah, if you don't cross state boundaries (or even
leave your village) like most people at the time the extent of the fence isn't really that important. Paris had substantial stone walls to enforce its own tax boundary at one point; since bits still exist plaques commemorate its existence, but I'd be surprised if the average Parisian thinks about the line of the wall much. The bit that got enshrined in the popular consciousness at the time is how much they resented the authorities levying the tax, and it appears that likewise the tax itself - not the implementation detail - was on Indian nationalists' grievances about British colonialism.
We have literally 100 bigger problems to solve before we worry about the climate impact of digital transmission.

What's the evidence it's sudden? Everyone cites a single study by Lisa Littman. She didn't ask any trans children. Just their parents. And she selected for parents who didn't accept their children coming out as trans. Children don't tell their parents everything. And parents don't hear things they don't want to sometimes.

Imagine you're afraid to do something. Someone else does it. Nothing too bad happens. Wouldn't it encourage you?
I might fall in that category. The problem is I've been turned off in a big way by stories of unethical practices at the NY Times in preventing people from cancelling subscriptions. Combine that with what people are pointing out about affiliate links, and the whole thing starts to seem suspicious.

Illegal abortions and snitching on your neighbors remind me about communist Romania (my country), though I was young at that time I heard enough stories about weird abortion attempts(like putting furniture on your belly) and there are amny stories about people reading their security files and finding out that someone they trusted was snitching on them.

Can you still read and listen to Japanese though? I learned German as a child and was (probably) fluent in it. However, after not using it almost at all for more than a decade I find it difficult to speak or write it. Reading and listening aren't a problem though. Is it the same for you?

It is anti-Marxist, in that Marxism requires that the whole proletarian class of a society unite, whereas wokism pretty much guarantees that society will be shattered into thousands of mutually suspicious parts.

"as second you can push your representatives for political and legislative reaction."

Apple are not doing this for anything other than Political reasons. They see the writing on the wall, governments want this level and are either explicitly asking Apple in secret or implicitly encouraging it with their rhetoric.
Do we not owe disclosure of certain things as part of our social contract? I would expect a partner to disclose certain things that are non-obvious, but potentially relevant to a relationship/hookup. But maybe I’m wrong, or painfully backwards. I would like to know, though, if you believe we owe no disclosure at all, prior to an engagement?
From what I've read it works similarly to other NFC cards in your wallet, where you just old your phone near a reader. It'll probably work on Apple Watch too, in which case your phone doesn't need to be involved at all.

According to the original article, masks do change this fact.
You say "you" don't want to introduce laws to force you to believe what you believe.
Are you fighting against the people you voted for passing those laws? Are you willing
to vote the other side given evidence that the current group is passing un-Christian laws?
If you aren't speaking up for others, then you are complicit in these things you "don't want".

I'm sure many may have heard this quote before:

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

The back story of Niemöller is quite interesting. He was a Christian pastor who heard the general
message and agreed with the goals of making a better German and having individuals give up some
freedoms to make a better country. However, after a meeting with Hitler, some things became very
clear. 1) He was being spied on and his phone was tapped (remember, he was pro-Nazi and preaching
as such) 2) Hitler didn't care about making Germany better, he just wanted complete and total control
over everyone and everything. After this meeting, he saw the man behind the curtain and started
preaching against the Nazis and was shortly after locked in the camps. The quote from above was from
after the war. He spent the rest of his life recounting how he had failed to life up to his beliefs.
Writing and speaking about (essentially) the slippery slope of in-action so others wouldn't end up
making the same mistakes he did the next time evil returns. Too many people would rather not do this
critical thinking on their own, instead just believing and trusting in others who are "right".

Thanks for mentioning us (I'm one of the founders of Kitemaker). Totally agree that keyboard shortcuts, a clean design, and simple navigation should be at the core of every productivity tool, which is why we did that as well.

FWIW, we built Kitemaker to tackle some of the points that the original articles highlights, but of course, our solution is a bit different from the authors. Our basic idea was that each work item should be a collaborative workspaces and allow you to track work at the level of deliverables (which basically is what many would say is the correct level, but AFAIK no issue tracker actually supports).

Also, always curious why you switched to Linear :)

Writing short stories. Reading a short story by Clarke as a kid is what set me towards science and tech in the first place. I don’t like showing them to people I know and usually just prefer to put them up somewhere online completely anonymously.

Fishing’s great, if you can find somewhere to do it.

Day-sailing is the best. A sailing class and small dinghy isn’t that much iirc, but if you can get your hands on a larger vessel there’s nothing better than the feeling of being on open water. If I couldn’t do tech or anything aerospace I’d 100% be in a maritime profession.

I was 13 when it came out, and my targets of choice were my peers rather than the teacher - I eventually got caught and had my account locked for 6 months as punishment. I don't recall exactly how I got caught, but no doubt it was something dumb and avoidable like talking about it.
The pre requisite would be to explain that hierarchies of values exist. If you get there, you are no longer facing a nihilist, hence you can focus on arguing the superiority of your moral value.

I don't think that quoting you as below substantially changes the meaning of what you wrote, and seems to very directly say that "the left" is "about power". As I said, this is tautological, but you present it as though it were a concealed truth.

> The left ... was never about equality and justice, it was always ... being about POWER

It feels more than a little reductive to attribute this behaviour to "the left" as a whole, when in fact it is a very small number of people. Perhaps you feel it is appropriate in your own context, but again this is a (common) presentation that purports to dismiss an entire "wing" of political thought, but actually just presents crude stereotypes.

Finally, I think the idea that the right present their attempts at power in a more naked fashion just isn't borne out by the evidence. Right wing policies are frequently presented as being dictated by either reason or common sense (often depending on the audience), and those of their opponents dismissed as unrealistic. This is the same kind of veneer you decry on the left, just a different colour - one that some find more appealing.
Vietnamese is also a difficult language to learn. I'm a European living in Vietnam and find it hard to get resources such as textbooks. I hope at some point a standard can be established for learners including textbooks and exams. Sadly, I feel like there's not enough demand for it currently.

It’s not cowardice, it’s that centrists or moderates are looking at issues rather than teams, so on some issues they’ll vote Republican and others Democrat. But partisans don’t understand the concept of “trying to do what’s best for one’s country”, so they can only understand this as “fear of committing to a team”.
