Not sure if you meant political campaign emails specifically or marketing campaign emails in general. The former are some of the absolute worst offenders in that regard, for sure.

I try to use unsubscribe links when 1) they exist and 2) the email is from a legit organization that I reasonably believe is actually going to unsubscribe me from something (if not from every place they've copied my address to by now), but I can see the argument for just flagging as spam in the case where an organization oversteps previously agreed bounds. Especially with the political campaign emails, the unsubscribe game can feel like futile whack-a-mole.

For ordinary commercial campaigns, I'd worry that flagging as spam would cause legit transactional mail (i.e. mail that belongs in the Updates auto-label) from the same organization to get flagged as well, but based on the state of my Spam folder, that's already happening anyway...

> Who buys a car with cash?

I did once. Why? Because I damn well wanted to, that's why! I am allegedly a free man living in the "free-est country on earth" so I gave my bank the required one week notice, came in with a bag, and walked out with the amount of cash necessary to buy my shiny new corvette. I then peacefully made my way to the dealership, where I signed the papers and handed them the money. No eyelashes were batted.

> there's zero doubt in my mind that anyone doing it is doing so for good reason

> in this case is almost certainly involved in drug or human trafficking.

Plot twist: i've never been involved in any drug/human trade, and made the money legally...

I gave you my "good reason". Feel free to call the DA in my area and tell them what to charge me with...

> In my [...] life

There's your issue. Not everyone is you. People have different situations and measuring them all against yourself is ... well ... wrong?

Eg: Have you "in your life" ever lived in a country where multiple bank runs happened during "your life", the banks ran out of money, and the government did nothing to make citizens whole? No? Cause that is one reason people would avoid banks - being bankrupted by such an event leaves a mark on you. Probably enough of a mark to keep you from banks forever, even if you move to USA...
One fun event, years ago I was at a developer home and he was showing me how he could create different text windows on his text only display. He would just quickly reach out hit some key and a text window would be create for example.

Asked him how he did that and he tried to do it slowly, and he could not figure which keys he pressed. His normal speed was too fast to follow but he no longer knew which keys he pressed and every time he tried to do it slowly he just stopped in confusion. :)
I don't think azure-docs repo is the right place to ask for help/suggestions as maintainers are not very responsive because their sole job is to push internal docs to public docs. But I understand your frustration.

However, I believe you could have set up "public IP prefix" using azure cli. I do not think you needs a azure managed firewall.

Adding managed firewall just to have edge IP is like saying I want to add a outside patio to my house, sure let's add a security check point for the neighborhood first.

You can use SSO with aws-vault
We use Microsoft Azure AD B2C to manage users. AD itself is a nice (for enterprise software), is used all over the place and is pretty stable.

B2C on the other hand is a different story. Every few months we have to roll out a new tenant in our system. Tenants are identified by B2C "applications". Every single time, the new application doesn't work. Every single time the fix involves editing the JSON spec, changing something random (like a "true" to a "false"), saving, and changing it right back again.

Doesn't exactly inspire confidence... we're planning a migration to AWS.

Also, try Googling for documentation related to "Microsoft Azure AD B2C". Almost every shred of internet wisdom is related to AD and not B2C. Even with Microsoft's own documentation you sometimes follow a link from a B2C API reference and find yourself in AD-only land and it isn't obvious. This makes the task of researching features and debugging infuriating.

Great question! Yes you can use Ockam in that setting to terminate encryption just before your cloud service needs to use the data instead of at the LoadBalancer or another intermediary like Cloudflare.

The Ockam TCP transport can move end-to-end encrypted through a Layer 4 Network Load Balancer. The Ockam WebSocket transport can move end-to-end encrypted through a Layer 7 Application Load Balancer.

FB also pays $12M a year for Zuckerberg's security details? In comparison, Amazon pays $1.2M for Bezos. So, I was wondering what kind of security could possibly cost $12M. Sounds like a tax-free way of spending on house decoration?
Just to be clear on the distinction, are we terming 'split segment' the keyboards in two halves that have (roughly) half the usual keys on each device, and saying purist's 'split keyboard' is.. two 'normal' keyboards?

Nothing is 'split' in the latter though? I've never thought 'split keyboard' a misnomer in referring to two pieces that look like a keyboard sawn (often carefully around staggered keycaps) in half, i.e. split?

Fundamentally it’s impossible to prove a negative, so agreed that it’s a pinky promise. I would say that I am a little closer to the problem space than just ”believing” from my time working in this area and dealing with these issues.

I routinely dealt with situations where connecting workspace data with other teams, even with explicit opt-in from users, at best required building incredibly detailed data scrubbing and log redaction to ensure no user data persisted outside of the workspace systems, in case it might accidentally end up used for some non-workspace purpose. At worst it was simply not possible, or not worth the other teams time to build things to a standard that would satisfy legal and privacy.

For sure, it’s possible there is some secret system or accidental data exposure, as I said, can’t prove a negative. But I will freely confess that I was someone who was generally skeptical of Google’s approach to data handling and always believed Gmail data and everything else was mined for every purpose until I joined Workspace. Once I was inside and saw how carefully it was treated and how many rules there were around anything you do with user data even within the Workspace teams, I was honestly nonplussed. It made product development harder.
So there is two types of DI, one way automatically wired through an IOC container, and the other manually wired through constructors. They both are the same thing, but one uses some configuration and magic to make it easier to pass around these interfaces.

Mark Seeman's blog[0][1][2](many more related articles, these are particularly related) helped me grasp some of this stuff.

Thank you for doing the math.
your usage is probably much higher than is mine, but generally any purchase doesn't require my attention to shipping. if it's mission critical or I'm impatient I obsessively reload tracking.

on the other hand I don't like having stores advertise to me online because Google slurps up my purchase data.

for me the privacy - or the sandboxing if Amazon sells the data - is worth the inconvenience. but that's like just my opinion, dude
this type of solution sounds good until you get hit by a false positive in a game.

happened to me on pugb and the only way I could get my account back was with a paypal charge back. It's very typical that game companies refuse to tell users what triggered it or how to avoid it in the future. For all I know, it could have been a scam from the devs.

I can live with a 40 - 60$ loss on a game, but losing the ability to play all games on protected servers forever would be really bad
Doh yup sports fandom is the same thing and just as silly, but I do it too so it doesn't seem as weird :)

IRS interest rate
I believe the suggestion is to do something about the account on the other service that has been pointed to your address, e.g., if United Airlines is sending you mail about flights you never booked, perform a password recovery on the UA account thereby locking out the person that entered the wrong email address. I'm not sure I agree. But then it doesn't often happen to me.
Many people won't contest the action if the amount is relatively small - say $5000 - because the legal fees will eat most of it and they don't want to spend the time.

Others are simply not savvy enough with the system to follow through with legal action. Or, they are too intimidated. I've heard stories of people being stopped while driving through a small town, having the car searched, and having $1000 confiscated for no good reason.
> Not specifically organized, but pushing into areas that have an outsized impact on the poor and finding no resistance because they don't push back.

I would definitely call this emergence[0]. For example the IRS has been known to push more against poor people than rich people because it is simply easier. That isn't IRS officials taking the stance "fuck poor people" but rather that it is extremely frustrating to go after rich people who have massive amounts of wealth and are using that power to make it very difficult for auditors to track everything. We see this kind of emergence happen all over, where people aren't doing things that are actually planned but patterns emerge. I think economists would mostly agree and just point to incentive structures, but I don't think this is a common way of thinking.

Anyways, I fully agree that we shouldn't be pushing regressive systems. Even if it is easier. Maybe we should start thinking about "Not because they are easy, but because they are hard."

[0] Actually I think a lot of what people believe is "deep state" and organized actors can more easily be explained by emergence.

Has anyone else all of a sudden been getting a lot of actual spam delivered to their Gmail Inbox in the last ~3 weeks.

I have been getting a lot. (a couple a week, which is a lot compared to zero for N years.) ((I was a customer of Postini before google bought them and integrated them into gmail as, IIRC, their spam system...))
Ransomware actors seem to deliver when paid. Honor among thieves.

I have never had a phone charger fail on me so if we assume that it lasts 3 phones and I buy them every 3 years, that comes out to about $1.66 per year for phone chargers.

It’s not a surprise no consumer cares. The average consumer would pay an extra $100 for their phone to get it in their favourite colour. The cost of chargers doesn’t even register.
Unless I do that all day, not really (and then I would need to configure tons of things to block the traffic), and things are getting worse and worse. I just received an update from Dell of Intel integrated graphics driver and it seems they phone home (to Intel, most probably, I doubt Dell receives a special version that send to Dell instead of to Intel whatever they thought it would be interesting to spy on), although I'm not sure the original ones did so, nor if I have even been warned that they do.

I'm surprised Azure still doesn't have any ARM processors to compete with AWS' Graviton instances. It's been nearly a full year since rumors of Azure working on ARM chips (https://www.zdnet.com/article/microsoft-is-designing-its-own...), and going back further it's close to 5 years since they talked up Windows Server on ARM (https://www.techrepublic.com/article/2-years-later-theres-st...) on Azure. Where is any of it though? I can go to AWS right now and spin up multiple different types of ARM processor instances, most of which are cheaper and more efficient for web-like workloads. It's really surprising that Azure hasn't been able to get anything out in all these years.
Depends on the hiring process. A good innkeeper will hire wenches who can muster a good punch: it's a competitive world, you don't want downtime from bar brawls and stuff.
I'm not stating that I am for or against anything. I'm asking how the blocking is not censorship. Why would you need to speculate anything further? Just answer the question rather than deflecting and redirecting to another question. (yes, i'm aware you're not the original person)
> There are probably other ways, and I am sure there are folks out there creative enough to find them.

The less risky option would simply be to pay/bribe you :)

It's more covert, harder to be discovered, and cheaper than risking legal fallout from use of a 5 dollar wrench.
Anecdotally, the answer to your question is yes. In my personal experience, distanced self-talk does seem to reduce emotional swings in every direction. It is not a Boolean thing though, so the 'distance' can be varied/adjusted.
Domestic Cat Breeds – 3 of the Best
This is why Inbox's Bundles feature was amazing. User-defined rules, emails either show up live or in digest form throughout the day, shown in your (one) inbox, not in some panel where secondary "labels" or "folders" are relegated to. Collapsed by default, but expandable.

Gmail thought that adding Snooze was enough to get feature parity and kill Inbox, but Bundles were by far the feature keeping me on Inbox.
I don’t use gmail, but I have also been getting some obvious spam through my filters as well - usually nothing makes it to my actual inbox, but lately there have been 5-6 per day.

I use a Bayesian filter trained on old spam (I haven’t retrained it in years) combined with Spamhaus blocklists. My guess is that spammers found a clever way to fool the Bayesian filter, or they found new hosts to send email from in order to bypass blacklists.
This is a very cool idea!
Anyone else doing this?
> The analysis by economists from the Office of Management and Budget and the White House Council of Economic Advisers drew from publicly available data and says the disparity is driven largely by how the tax code treats income generated from wealth — such as income from stocks, whose worth increases over time — rather than wages, which are immediately taxed.

I don't get how taxing "income from stocks" would work. Suppose you buy a stock at $100 and it go up to $200. Do you pay taxes on $100 because that's "income", even though its just a number. If its 30%, I would have to sell 15% of my stock, which would also trigger capital gains tax.

This gets even crazier when people own private shares and there's no clear cut market value. This essentially would amount to you having give up your company. If you grow your company by 20% a year, at a 30% tax rate, you'd essentially give up 5% of your ownership every year just to pay taxes (someone please correct me if my math is wrong).

I think it makes sense to tax actualized gains at the point of sale. There's tricks you can get around selling by borrowing at very low rates with your stock as collateral but that's a separate issue. At best we shouldn't be giving preferential tax treatment for debt financing
Gotcha - this is helpful, thank you!
I'm typing this now with my left hand on my main keyboard and my right hand on my laptop keyboard, which is about two feet away and at an angle. It's surprising how natural it feels to type this way.

I don't have any particular RSI issues, so I probably won't make a habit of it, but it's interesting how my brain doesn't seem to care how far apart my hands are. I'm not even consciously aware of which hand I'm using at any moment.
It's possibly your decisoin to move might not be solely or even primarily due to the climate emergency (becoming some type of expected climate refugee), but if it's part of your decision-making process, where are you headed to, and what is your reasoning?
I didn't say it would do anything to discourage bad actors from kidnapping those you care about. Just that it's a lot less stressful to be in an interrogation situation, when there's nothing you actually need to be using your willpower to resist doing. (Instead, it's just Kafkaesque.)
I disagree. If income was paid out Reddit would then be sending out 1090s or W2s to every mod. Analytics and time tracking would be put in place. An entire team would need to be stood up to oversee mod management. Mods from certain regions of the world would be disavowed, and the barrier to enter would naturally be higher for new mods.

I say mods should be either full employees or volunteers, you can't mix between the two.
What is confusing you? If you explain what you find puzzling i can try and answer.
This is usually a sign they don't really have the ability to define their position conscisely enough.

There are a lot of stupid people in the world, but most of them are able to see reason if a) they're willing, and b) you're willing to help them get there.

The problem is that you're probably not going to get the answer you want so you have little incentive to put in the effort.
> I don't think azure-docs repo is the right place to ask for help/suggestions as maintainers are not very responsive because their sole job is to push internal docs to public docs.

What place would you suggest? We had bad experience with Azure support we could never fight through on the first support line.

> However, I believe you could have set up "public IP prefix" using azure cli. I do not think you needs a azure managed firewall.

I don't have deep experience in networking stuff on Azure so my understanding can be wrong, but I think "public ip prefix" is just a group of continuous IP addresses what you can reserve. You still need to assign those to something eg a NAT Gateway. As far as I know you cannot assign them directly to an Container Instance.
> Tesla fandom is such a bizarre phenomenon.

Not really. When they sit at home spending a lot of time online in an echo chamber it's no wonder they end up with a warped perspective that's disconnected from reality.

The same thing happens with QAnon and anti-vax "truthers". Even the strangest ideas get reinforced and believed. Being part of the group becomes more important than seeing what's true.
indigenous and colonized are more or less synonyms, its not really a proxy of anything. Why specific word is used instead of another to refer to something is a question more suited for linguists. But if I had to make a guess, I'd venture to say that people prefer to use a term to describe themselves that doesn't center around the negatives.
> Visual C++ wasn't visual. Perhaps the main competitor was Visual Basic.

Both. Their slogan at the time was "The ease of Visual Basic with the power of Visual C++!" -- and AFAICS, it was true.
Almost certainly the majority of the anti spam system at any large mailbox flogger is a bayesian classifier. Tell your mailbox what you don't want (mark as spam) and it will gradually learn.

It does not care whether it is in German or Cyrillic, it will learn the characteristics gradually. It does require effort.

If you teach a bayesian classifier with around 500 ham and 500 spam, you will see very little spam and if you continue to teach it, it gets better and better. I am assuming that is what Google give you but if I was them, that's what I'd do. I'd also add a few lists and stuff but the gold standard is a trained bayesian filter. You get to do the training, there is no shortcut. I suspect that if you don't mark a mail as spam then it will be implicitly marked as ham.

Getting an efficient spammy feedback mechanism working in a mail system is surprisingly hard. Email changes at each hop as it gets from source MUA via MTAs to the destination MUA. Headers are added at a minimum at each hop. Anyway, that's my problem - not yours!

So, no they do not need to run up a language detector but given that Google have an online translation service, I doubt that would be tricky. That sort of thing may be added to an "enterprise" offering.

Try teaching your mailbox what you want and don't want and see if the clever buggers at Google have actually mastered the basics. They probably have but you need to do the work to provide the data that corresponds to showing what you want.
Yup it's a valid point, that's why I made sure to call out in my original comment. So many little details that would need to be done right in order to make it work.

It's an impossible task for every game studio to get all those details right, that's why I think it needs to be centralized. That way game studios can just worry about making cool games, and not having to waste resources on this endless arms race of cheating.
I, for one, don't use that feature because I use two email addresses. People who know me personally only know one of them, and I use the other for registrations and subscriptions.
I reckon FB share price would dip more than $5Billion of Zuck got deposed.
