the specific network is unimportant. Good and bad things will inevitably happen regardless. What is actually important is instilling the trust in your child such that they feel comfortable discussing anything that they may experience with you.
Hence why they wouldn't bother with this.

You do however, have close relatives, family, friends, things you own, people you care for, your own life, that can be used and threatened for you to give out your password.

Don't kid yourself. Torture methods exist for a reason: as horrible as they are, they work, no matter the person. And they won't stop until they get your vacation pictures.
Re your edit: Not necessarily. They may be a winner under the KPI regime, and may feel that they are less likely to be so under a saner regime.

For example, if I'm a manager that can make my people hit their KPIs, and my KPIs are about getting my people to hit theirs, then I'm subject to KPIs, and I like it. It's easier than making my people succeed at what really matters, and it makes me look good.

I’m working on a website that has been growing since 1996… The chances of us ever migrating to .NET 5 and onwards is basically zero.
the way handshake addresses this problem is putting a cap on the total number of names that can be registered, and then users compete on fees in order to get their transaction mined to renew the name

Your YouTube support link isn't about the DMCA, and in fact is an attempt at trying to get people to use their system instead of the DMCA.

YouTube's internal copyright takedown system is just that: Internal. DMCA is a legal avenue that you can use against YouTube and their users, but it wouldn't be via their internal copyright take down system.

It is in YouTube's best interests for you NOT to use the DMCA as there are avenues where it can leave YouTube themselves civilly liable (OCILLA[0]), so they work hard to funnel people into their internal copyright system that doesn't expose YT.

What provider are you with that is stuck at 100Mb? and what's the countryside speed/provider?

I have had gigabit in the rural homes and the flat in London that covers the last 6 years, before that is was Virgin media.

We actually have ~40%(1) of the country now on gigabit capable infrastructure many of those can choose between gigabit from multiple different first mile infrastructure providers. The government project 85%(2) gigabit coverage by 2025, I think we will get higher than that from all the plans I have seen.
The biggest problem we in the Altnet world (non BT/Virgin media FTTH) is take up. Most people don't actually care and are happy to just stay on the cheapest 60Mb Sky/BT/NowTV/etc package for £22 a month. We see about 10% takeup/interest in areas with Virgin and FTTC, about 15% in areas with FTTC.

Whenever it comes to comparisons between the United States and other countries of the world, it is best to keep in mind the difference in mass between the two. I put together this map to illustrate what I mean: https://thetruesize.com/#?borders=1~!MTY2MDk5MTk.NzY3NTM1NA*...

As you can see, ALL of the countries that rank higher are significantly smaller than the United States. In fact, some of them are even smaller than some of our smallest states. And to truly capture the point, you can see all countries can fit within the United States with plenty of room to spare. The fact that America can rank so highly with citizens so spread out, a situation of which has its own scalability challenges, is rather impressive.

> 10M is enough for a large estate with privacy and natural beauty.

Where is that? Are you planning on living in the country? In most large cities, it doesn't seem like 10MM will be enough for you to live in an estate and still not have to work for ongoing regular expenses (food, etc.)

And it's fine you don't want any of those things. Better than fine, that's great. But there are a lot of things that you need more than 10MM for.
Thank you, GianFabien,
I have not said anything, managing expectations is definitely a hard lesson learned early. This is the second reference for a negotiator at the 30% range, thank you for that data point. I had no reference to this before yesterday. Thank you for the recommendation. Any suggestions on how to find this kind of negotiator?
The driver is a big fan of Tesla (even in that video he was very impressed with FSD 10). I think he probably deleted it himself because of the backlash
Not the OP, but the people I've seen this do it DIY have all done it with Ubiquiti products. A single link can get a mile of range with clear LoS. Depending on how far out you are, that lets you connect to a "real" internet connection for cheap.

EPYC is up to 64-core/128-threads per socket. A dual-EPYC will get you 128-cores / 256-threads.

> similar RAM

IIRC, EPYC is 2TBs of RAM support from LRDIMMs. Maybe 4TB now, but you need many, many DIMMs for that: like 16 DIMMs or something on a dual-socket EPYC.
That "workaround" is only available for store apps, not PWAs. Apple would love if every web developer had to submit to their app store just to add features like geolocation and camera and notifications. And that's exactly what happens today.

My take on this is that just injecting stuff in a constructor is an antipattern. Why not pass the data through methods instead of accessing it through a singleton in a constructor?

I understand the need for DI, sometimes the order of instantiation is necessary but for everything else I get lost in the DI constructor injection stuff.
I don't have kids but hope to one day. I've thought a bit about how I'd approach similar scenarios. Take my answer with a grain of salt, as it's probably not one you're going to like.

> If you had to let your kid have a social media account, which network would you feel least concerned about, and why?

All of them are equally as harmful or beneficial as the user makes them. If my child were to allow others' opinions blindly sway them, or if they easily let their emotions get the best of them, then no social network is going to do them any good.

Instead, I would be more concerned about their ability to reason about harsh comments, considering differing opinions, and overall having good critical thinking. After that, it doesn't matter what someone says to them on the internet - they'd be able to have a more thoughtful, mature understanding of a given situation and be able to respond more maturely and appropriately.

Isn't this what it's about, anyway? Sheltering them from nasty stuff isn't really preparing them for the world. The world is a very nasty place. If they aren't secure in their reasoning and emotional control while sitting, safely, in their own home behind a computer/phone screen, then they're really going to have a tough time out in the real world.

> Note that although "alternative" social networks are interesting

This is how you get your kid indoctrinated into anti-semitism or other ideologies. Most "alternative" social networks these days exist as newfound homes for extremist or inhumane groups. There are exceptions, as I'm sure someone upset about my comment will point out, but you're doing what we call in the industry a "bandaid patch" by forcing them to such networks.

> I'm mainly interested in your thoughts on the main social networks that teens use, like Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok, etc.

All of them spy on you, use your data, do facial recognition, and prey on their users, regardless of age or demographic. As will any alternatives, regardless of what they claim.

As for the "social" effect, it really depends on who they follow/interact with. No platform is going to be inherently better than the other in that regard.

> my teen doesn't seem to care

Because your teen is probably optimizing for something different than you are. They're in a different life stage, after all.

They haven't been through the life experiences to really value privacy yet, as they haven't seen the direct consequences of it being taken away, or had that "wtf" moment when they see private moments shared to the public in one form or another.

This is all part of the learning process. A teen should be a teen, not an advocate. You can educate them all you want but ultimately it needs to be their own choice. The people I've encountered that are the least prepared for life tend to be (though are not exclusively) those who had very sheltering/protective parents.

Being a teen is all about doing things yourself and failing. You don't have to worry about the choking hazards anymore, so let them break some stuff and deal with the results - even if that means ego/reputation/etc being hurt in the process. That's part of growing up.

Just my $0.02.

The handshake team itself has never used language like "overthrow", and have carefully designed the system to work with DNS, not necessarily replace it. From their FAQ:

> Does Handshake replace DNS?

No. Handshake is meant to replace the root zone file, not DNS. Browsing the web with human readable names is what Internet users have gotten acclimated to. Our solution allows for a seamless transition between a centralized name root zone file controlled by private parties to a decentralized root zone file controlled by actual Internet users. The Handshake blockchain itself is essentially one big distributed zone file in which anyone has the right to add an entry in.

Good point. I don't, but the relationship is pretty good. Might be good to put in place before we give them access to the demo with their own data.

If TFA is true, why not do like blockchain does (well, when done correctly) and have no stateful authorization at all, combined with a yubikey or similar to sign every request? Taking state out of the picture simplifies things tremendously, and techniques like multisig offer lots of room for managing risk.

I just wonder if a lot of session-based auth is that way because of historical bias.
So rich people and retirees who never depended on societal approval for their reputation or livelihood, will continue to not care, and that makes these rich people and retirees...stronger, somehow? Are they psychic vampires that feed on the emotional energy of impotent callings-out? They are, apparently, at war against the emotion-killing Borg, after all. It all makes sense if they're protecting their food source.

I imagine those on "the list" tend to have employers and local social circles that are already "on their side" to begin with. And even if they're employed or surrounded by "the Borg", it would take a large-scale "protest" about a specific individual to make that Borg take action, for the real Borg is corporate, and it is motivated only by profit and publicity.

Rather, it would take a particularly extremist/outlier individual in a position of power at a local employer/community level to comb through these sorts of lists by their own initiative and take action on its contents.
the assertion at the end of the article is that fire suppression doesn't allow small fires to consume the readily available fuel on the forest floor, leading to large stores of tinder and hotter fires, the kind that could kill a Redwood
Close the thread, you win.
Maybe their reinforcement learning algorithm allows for a bit of exploration, and that was one of the very unlikely actions for it to take.
Also, is the data for every ISP or country available?
You are correct. I was going to post a similar response.

Regarding worthlessness: I suppose some might place some value on access to company financials.
In Washington, where the video was recorded, the rule is that you must stop and remain stopped as long as there are pedestrians in the crosswalk in in your half of the roadway or within one lane of your half of the roadway.

"Half of the roadway" is defined as all traffic lanes carrying traffic in one direction. In the case of a one-way road such as the one in the video "half of the roadway" is the whole road.

In your 4-lane hypothetical, if there are two lanes in each direction you can drive through the crosswalk if the pedestrian is in the farthest away opposite direction lane from the lane you are in. In a 4-lane road with 1 lane in one direction and 3 in the other, you can drive through if you are in that 1 and the pedestrian is in the farthest 2 away from you. If you are in one of the 3 going the other way, you have to stop no matter which lane they are in, because they are either in your half (the 3 lanes going your direction), or within 1 lane of your half.

Anyone is physically capable of sending a DMCA takedown.

However it is supposed to be from the copyright owner [17 USC 512(c)(3)(A)(i)] and if it isn't, it can be ignored [17 USC 512(c)(3)(B)] and makes the person who does it liable for damages [17 USC 512(f)(1)]. Although that's probably pretty hard to use in practice.
From the article you cited (just above the examples):

> In 1990, about a dozen European countries had a wealth tax, but by 2019, all but four had eliminated the tax because of the difficulties and costs associated with both design and enforcement. Belgium, Norway, Spain, and Switzerland are the countries that raised revenue from net wealth taxes on individuals in 2019 with net wealth taxes accounting for 1.1% of overall tax revenues in Norway, 0.55% in Spain, and 3.6% in Switzerland for 2017.

The citation for those statements links back to the OECD, so they apparently don't count the Italian and Dutch taxes as "wealth taxes". The NPR transcript linked elsewhere says only three countries have it, so that interviewee may not be counting Belgium either (since the tax is solely on financial instruments and not total wealth).
That's a great demo, I really like how you built up the layers as you went through it. It's really easy to see how you can keep composing and building up more and more impressive apps using these building blocks. My main question would be around authentication, you mention it both on the website and in the video but I'm not sure how you're solving that?

Also how generic is your ID-based sync mechanism? Can you attach it to any react component and sync whatever it has in useState hooks? Or is there magic going on in the prebuilt components that you demoed?
Yeah and this is an initiative to change the law.

Try to find these people then! I seriously doubt you will for a change like this. The UI changes are good for the reason GP states.
Right, nothing should ever be built unless it can be 100% correct immediately.

I’m stunned that it hasn’t, so far as we know, actually hit anything yet. I’m not sure how, but clearly they’re doing something right between choosing drivers and writing software.
I agree - but do you think if they did that the haters would stop hating ?
Good for you trying to take care of your children. I am not currently a parent, so I will have to join the oodles of non-parents telling parents how to raise their kids. You can join the oodles of parents who tell non-parents 'your life is incomplete without children' if you wanna, I don't mind :)

If the teen knows the dangers, and you reinforce the methods how the websites manipulate them, and you show the teen the studies that use of social media tends to affect body image and make one compare oneself with the 1% of the entire world vs his actual peers, then I would let that teen make the decision on which social media to use.

With some caveats that you highly recommend using de-algorithmized views where possible. IDK if Facebook still enables a Chronological News Feed or not, but if it does, highly upsell that, disable like counts, mute listings of retweets, "XYZ liked", unfollow default subreddits etc.
Do these stats represent anything useful? First of all it's going to be biased towards people who test their connection speed. I could imagine that skewing the numbers upward. But even as a relative metric it doesn't say much because we don't know what the distribution is in different countries. Some of those averages could be bumped upwards by a small number of extremely fast connections.
In the state I live in it is illegal to enter a crosswalk when there is a pedestrian in it when the road is undivided as in this example. I find it unlikely that there is any state where it's legal to do so for a one-way street such as this. (There are states that treat the crosswalk as two halves when there is two-way traffic.)
With go 1.17, a minimal program doing absolutely nothing when built with

Well that is expected when they own most of the capital/money. That's not really a factor or surprising.

What is important is how much a person is paying as a function of how rich they are. Rich people get to pay way less and it's not fair. They can get around tax laws because their cash flows don't look like the average citizen's tax flows.
Based on the spec and the form-factor I assume an oven.
They could be simply paid opinions.
Yeah. For sure. I may have gotten excited there. Don't focus on the numbers so much. 1km is better than 0km.

Find something you like to do, and start doing it regularly. Go hiking. Go swimming. Go to the gym. Go running. Find some people who play basketball, or ultimate frisbee.

I do ultimate. It's a lot of fun. It's good for people of all skill levels. And when I'm out of shape, on offense, I can let the others run down while I breathe in the back.

I only do it once a week because my legs are old. (OK, the rest of me is old, too, but the legs are where I notice it the next day.) But even once a week of intense (as intense as I can do) activity seems to be enough to keep me in moderately decent shape. And it's activity that I like. (And, as an added bonus, the read-and-react nature of the game is a complete mental break from coding.)

The minimum you can do is an easy solution that doesn’t even require leaving the house(so no excuses apply): jump on a rebounder for 10 minutes. You can do it once or twice a day. After only a month you’ll have a lot more stamina and be in better shape. Get a bungee type of rebounders(without springs), it is noiseless and more pleasant to jump on. Getting a better quality rebounder will pay off
Then why do we have titles at all if people need to read the "initial lines" to know what it's about? I don't see how that's a reason not to just improve the title. Perhaps the problem was that I also felt like this was not what I expected.
Agreed. There should be a lot of employees from Twitter, Google, Facebook, Amazon, etc. slapped with very punishing fines and possible jail sentences for "cooperating with an authoritarian regime" the past few years. By the time of the election (e.g. the Biden laptop story), they weren't even pretending to be neutral platforms. They were corrupt crony partisans boot-stomping on the public square, and we should ensure that type of behavior is absolutely not tolerated in a free society.

More like move them to a better place if they prefer this to simply terminating the contract. Benefits are numerous - retain already-hired quality personnel, have a good PR campaign about being moral and holy and doing the extra mile with bureaucracy (which would be true), grow some extra hairy balls overnight. Or something similar.
Something fully moderated like https://newmoongirls.com/ is the safest way to go, but it's only applicable to certain demographics and probably isn't what the kids think of as a "social network".
Very few business pay salaries out of investment money. And even when they do, it's temporary. If salaries were paid with investments, the investments wouldn't ever become more valuable.

When you buy stock, you're not paying salaries. You're buying ownership of something that has value, generates income, and mostly intends to use that income to pay salaries.

The argument you're making is an argument against corporate income taxes. That's different.

Canada, Australia, and basically all of Europe have restrictions on hate speech. So going back to my previous question, it sounds like you are saying that most western democracies are already on the path to authoritarianism.

I think many of the people in those same countries would also say that our relatively unrestricted allowance of political advertising and lobbying is what leads to the corruption. It shifts the importance from the size of one's constituency to the wealth of one's constituency. That is generally bad for the health of democracy as noted by the US dropping in international rankings of the world's democracies[1].
