Oof. Hope there are some nice bonuses to go around, then.

From what I heard from friends, it was a great place to work. But I guess most of that will change when the corporate overlords decend and start optimizing things.

Reddit could change their TOS tomorrow to prevent users from moderating more than 2 subreddits if they wanted; others would take their place. But the mods of subreddits that have not been banned are advertiser friendly.
I assume it takes time to go from "this person could have potentially been targeted with Pegasus" to "this person's iPhone was exploited by Pegasus, and here is how they did it."
It's very clear - because Greg's Phone Emporium does not hold local political power like car dealers do. They excel at it.

I'm not seeing a software update on my iPhone?
I read your comment a bit like a defense of Facebook, saying "you know, when you scale to millions of people, it's really hard and expensive! Cut them a bit of slack"

I don't disagree that these problems are hard when you scale to millions of users. Just pointing out that Facebook were the ones who chose to scale to millions of users before their moderation systems were ready.

For what it's worth, thank you for doing your part in helping to fix the system.
In general the idea of laws essentially banning competition in the dealership market is a crap idea, manufacturer or otherwise.
Who knows? I don't have an answer for you. Maybe crowdfunding, patronage, selling physical copies which are scarce.

What I know is this copyright business is fundamentally incompatible with the digital age we're living in. It's trivial to copy. Selling copies makes no sense.

To actually enforce copyright in the 21st century, there must be no software freedom. Only well-behaving software that refuses to copy will be allowed to run. I don't think anyone here on HN wants that.
I think what gives me peace at night, ironically, is the knowledge that there is no facet of my or anyone elses modern life that doesn't result in terrible harm to the natural state of the earth. If I quit eating meat its like great and I can pat myself on the back, but they are still going to have slaughterhouses, or clearcut rainforests for soy beans, or strip mine mountains for lithium for all the junk I have to buy to be a productive member of this society so I can afford to keep myself sheltered and fed. I have zero agency at all to do anything about that.

I've let go of feeling like I have to fix it, because solving these institutional issues is ultimately not my job and that sense of worry will never be relieved in my lifetime, because once again I have no personal agency to affect institutional change. Us peasants in history exists to live and die as units of labor beholden to a course charted by people ordained since birth to command that ship, and its a fallacy to ever imagine that we might ourselves take the helm and steer ourselves to logically rational utopian waters free of emotional biases. Instead of fighting upstream fruitlessly until you die restless, chase personal hedonism within your lifetime and means as much as possible.

Feeding animals for slaughter requires an order of magnitude more plant destruction, simply for the fact that you're passing those plants through another trophic level. If humans were to eat the soy that is typically used for feed, that would be a massive amount of harm reduction if you want to take into account the idea of "plant suffering".
There are fan made files for apps like Battlescribe and Army Builder for all of the GW games. The people that make the apps don't distribute the files but Games Workshop has never stopped the distribution of the files.

Mongoose Publishing, which made the original A Call to Arms games has long allowed pages like Burger's Ship Viewer

http://ibisfightclub.ml

which not only does the same sort of dice rolling but also includes much more data about the game and the vessels in it.

And to be clear, I haven't posted any of the stats for any of the ships in the A Call to Arms Star Fleet game. I have details of the weapons but you still need to refer to the stats in the published books to know how many dice those weapons have on a particular ship.

> You were focused on what people say [...] People lie

Not true. You're strawmanning again. I already addressed this distinction between "say" versus "think" in the sibling comment, which I'm sure you've read. To refresh your memory, I said: "That's not how people think, at all. People who do horrible things are very good at rationalizing that they are actually the good guys. This is a well studied phenomenon."

> I have provided examples elsewhere.

Ok, I searched the thread and now found your examples. Let's address one of them:

> A modern example is public health. Everything from preventing toxic waste dumping to COVID mask mandates is met with cries of "FREEDOM!" Right now there is a large constituency in the US for the right to do whatever they please even if that means they will kill people by giving them a disease.

If you actually engage with these people, you will find that these people don't believe that they are causing significant harm to others. You're comparing their actions to literally killing people, as if going to the grocery store without a mask (as a person who has no symptoms and may even be vaccinated) is placing the public to a risk that is comparable to literally homicide. You're trying too hard to rationalize your belief that republicans are evil. They're not. They're normal people like you and I. Most of them care about their fellow humans, even if they see different risk/benefit tradeoffs to decisions than you do.
>then people who have the will, skill and capital to start financial services will rather do that elsewhere, where they have larger chances of a positive outcome for them.

Dan Wong, one the more competent China tech watchers surveying local entrepreneurs on current crackdown: "They would love to have the problems of Jack Ma" because it means they've made it really big.

China isn't a dinky market, the incentives are massive, founders will settle being 100s millionaires instead of billionaires if that's the size that keeps regulator scrutiny at bay. Also the fact that PRC is willing to break incumbents via regulatory crack down is creating opportunities not seen in markets effectively captured by huge players.

> rather do that elsewhere

Instead of "elsewhere", it's really about "do something else". PRC doesn't consider draining the best and brightest into a massive service blackhole like adtech or fintech worthwhile. It's crushing incentivization structure of soft tech to make hard tech more appealing. Beijing wants semiconductors and turbojets that can eventually be exported world wide, not a more profitable ANT pyramid scheme that will likely be a drain on domestic market.
Okay, so we had a couple of cases. Then we went into level 4 lockdown (essentials only, leave house to exercise or supermarket). That happened in 2020.

The spread stopped, though we detected cases for the next two weeks (as normal for Covid) which had been infected pre-lockdown.

Then we spent a whole year with no restrictions, no masks, normal gatherings, no covid. There were a couple of minor lockdowns lasting a few weeks in there from small border breaches.

This time, we did the same thing. Same lockdown, same cases afterwards. The only difference is that Delta spreads now within families post lockdown, otherwise everything is the same.

In a month from now, we'll be back to open with no restrictions or deaths.

Our total deaths so far since Covid began in 2019? 27.

We currently have 4 people in critical condition at hospital.

How do the totals look where you live?

An interesting move by Intuit.
Door opening is common, I had several cats do it. One cat learned to vomit in the sandbox. We didn't train him to do it, he somehow understood the general vibe that we don't like him vomiting and decided to go to his sandbox to do it (and picked up on the positive feedback from that).

I wish we knew how to make them do that because he wasn't the only vomiting cat.

Having a single company with most the control is not necessarily the same as having a corporate sponsorship. A language could have many corporate sponsorships and benefactors. The problem being referenced is having one benefactor with too much control.

That problem is fundamental. As soon as one entity gets too much control, it's impossible to wrest control back without their agreement, or a long protracted battle which will hurt the thing being fought over.

Nobody is saying keep corporate interests completely divorced, this is just a call to be aware that one interest is getting too much power, whether on purpose or just through increased interest on their part, but the end result is the same. If we care about Rust not being beholden to one entity at the expense of others, then action should be taken now (even if that action is just much increased scrutiny and asking Amazon to please make sure the executive directory position is filled ASAP, and not with someone Amazon affiliated).

Not to discredit cows, but I wanted to insert an anecdatum about my cat: she was terrified of leaving my apartment, which I found out once when a friend carried her outside and let the door close. The cat ran to the door and immediately started leaping to try to manipulate the door handle. She failed, of course, but she could only have known how it worked by observation, and I'm sure that with a bit of time and a body physically capable of manipulating a handle she would have gotten it.

So then it is my third question, which I admittedly reworded. Originally I meant to ask if it was a cultural distinction of about what is food, and that seems to be the answer then.

Essentially you seem to have said that what you consider to be ok to eat is what you have already ate or what has been accepted to be eaten by those around you.

I find that conclusion lacking, as it gives no room for future food discovery (unless you are ok with being passive and just eating whatever others tell you is ok to eat).

But back to your question.

> if it was shown in the future that “asparagus and trees” and even their separated fruit had bundles of nerves, conditional logic, feelings, intelligence, does that also exclude them from diets now?

If it is believed that “asparagus and trees” have the ability to feel joy, feel pain, feel compassion, live some definition of a fulfilling life, and that harvesting them effectively killed all of that. Then yes, I think it would certainly bring into question the morality of mass farming, killing, and eating them.

Of course, if it turns out that everything has this capability, from the smallest nanobes to the largest mammals, and we haven't worked out how to produce nutrients at scale, then maybe we just need to throw our hands up and say "whelp, survival of the fittest".
It's also galling that this recording was made under a copyright regime that granted substantially shorter federal copyright terms and required renewal to achieve the maximum term. Creators, at that time, knew "the deal" and accepted it.

The intellectual commons has been (and is), literally, subject to "I am altering the deal. Pray I don't alter it any further." scenarios. That shouldn't have ever been acceptable. Since no "normie" has ever given a damn about copyright terms only those who were financially incented to care (read: holders of copyrights) got a say. They used their lobby to make the change happen.

I agree. That was my point - I meant that it shouldn't be news because we should be able to take it for granted that you can buy and sell stuff without being forced to use a middleman.
something that did this for email would be amazing as well. I subscribe to dozens of oldschool ham radio forums, which get threaded to all hell and go on for weeks and months. the native mailing list archiver (like groups.io or mailman using hyperkitty[0] or worse, not [1]) is just chaos. Very hard to read, and everyone email clients decide differently how to format text, whitespace, and previous replies so some messages will be miles long containing the entire context of the message before them. There has to be something out there that turns email forums into a reddit- or HN-like threaded/indented interface.

That's obviously facile. He's dead, and unable to make decisions anymore.

I, on the other hand, am alive and would definitely have decided to become a world-renowned operatic singer, if only copyright wasn't so short that I couldn't pass on the rights to my artistic creations to my children's children's children's children's children's children's children. I could pass it on to my children's children's children's children's children's children, but I worry about their kids. Copyright isn't sufficiently long enough for that so I decided to produce no art at all instead, and become an engineer to produce trade secrets that can last indefinitely.

We definitely need an extension to copyright to incentivize long-term planners like me to create more art.

From what I understand, when multiple parties are claiming a video nobody gets the money. I can’t remember what popular YouTuber discovered this, but he basically “weaponized” it because he was tired of them going after his ad revenues even when he was within fair use, so he just started putting as much conflicting material as possible instead.
Until copyright length is something more sensible, there’s really very little YouTube can do to rectify the situation.

When they’re looking at policing copyright on basically all modern works versus just the last 20 years worth of works, there has to be some automation involved. When you involve automation, you’re inevitably going to see dehumanizing situations like this. They can’t just decide to not uphold the law though.

It might be boring to some and might be extremely interesting for others. People who like solving puzzles and facing hard challenges usually like it. Of course, if your passion is building you wouldn't like it as you don't "build" something new.

Cynically, you could say they should be motivated to support this trend, as it would be more $ for them. But that hasn't happened yet.
Exactly... I hear people say that it was a good idea at some point in time, and I still don't understand it. Why did they need the law to protect them from competition back then?

Undoubtedly being protected from competitors is good for someone, but it is rarely the consumer that benefits. Its hard to see how car dealers could be the exception.

I think the relevant distinction is between “responding to threatening stimuli” and “suffering”. I don’t know where the definition of pain would be on that spectrum.

There are some neuroscientists who think you need a neocortex to suffer. From that perspective, lower cognitively evolved species like ants and lobsters don’t suffer in the same way we empathetically assume mammals do.
I think the problem was more along the financial side: like why the whole of FAANG benefits from the tech while Mozilla foots most of the bill.

Ask HN: What's your approach to personal data archiving and backups?
I'm currently just relying on cloud services to backup data but I'm thinking it's time to start using some offline solution both to avoid the risk of account lockout and to avoid having to trust third parties with sensitive data.

I often see comments on HN which favor self-hosting and personal data management over use of cloud services, so I'm curious what approach people here take.

I've only just started doing the research for this, but my plan so far is just to buy a couple high capacity hard disk drives which would be mirrors of each other. Occasionally I'd copy files over from my computer to one of the drives and occasionally I'd mirror the data on one drive to the other. Also wondering if I should just re-use some existing 2.5" drives I have from old laptops or if it's more prudent to purchase a new drive that might be manufactured with long-term durability / stability in mind.
> Now shooting a fish involves this internal struggle of deciding if it’s necessary, if it makes sense, what it means about me, what the experience will be like for the fish.

These considerations are originally critical to what it meant to be hunter. Hunters are shepherds to their prey, just from a distance. You can't kill with reckless abandon because of realities like supply and spoilage. Livestock can be seen as a practice of a hunter bringing their prey closer to home so as to protect them from harvest by other hunters.
