> They don't understand that these companies have PhD educated ML data scientist getting paid outrageous salaries mine your behavior and influence it

What I think is a fallacy is that _any_ of us even understands exactly what that means. The data science crap is (from what I hear from people in the industry) is mostly hype.

> I will never, ever blame the user for being exploited.

It's not exactly exploitation if the user is aware of what's happening and change causes them only inconvenience. People don't even turn off GPS on their phone even though they only actively use positioning like once a week just to avoid the inconvenience of having to go to privacy settings and turn it on/off, basically they'd rather be tracked the whole time just to save 3 seconds. If you do this you're not being exploited, you're willingly accepting this transaction. It's their loss.

The thing that every single person can see is that these companies don't have the customer's interest primarily in mind. Google is not giving free stuff because they're generous (and they shouldn't be, people should understand that companies exist to make money by "supposedly" providing value). Their standard position is hypocritical. Amazon argues for higher min wage not because they care about welfare, but because they want to prevent competition from even a 1% chance of gaining a tiny share in some market, as long as min wage can only be paid by Amazon and not some random small business, they're winning.

Our problem is not that companies are doing any of this. It's that when EA did that whole gambling/surprise-box crap, people complained and complained for months, but a lot of those same people STILL played the same stuff and bought stuff from the company. This leads to the conclusion that people don't want anything to be different, but they like to complain and have moral high standing.

I did not read the article but the FreeBSD bsdinstall(8) installer gives you the option to use the GELI full disk encryption with ZFS on top of it.

Its kinda similar to LUKS on Linux and will ask you for password in the bootloader.

Like others have mentioned, I'm not a fan of the subscription model either. After watching the demo video and reading through your site, I instantly went to download the app in the app store, only to be disappointed in, yet another subscription.

I'd gladly pay for the software and repurchase at major releases (if I wanted to upgrade)! I'm not looking for more subscriptions though. Give it a thought. I'd like to be one of the paying customers :-)

It's solid policy. The problem with ads in this regard is really that they allow random strangers to run code on your machine. That's never a good security practice.

Let's read how two different automakers introduce their driver assistance features:

> https://www.cadillac.com/world-of-cadillac/innovation/super-...

> Super Cruise is the first true hands-free driving-assistance feature for compatible roads

vs

> https://www.tesla.com/autopilot

> Tesla cars come standard with advanced hardware capable of providing Autopilot features, and full self-driving capabilities

Both are SAE J3016 level 2 systems. This engineering standard calls this literally "driver support features" and says they are not "automated driving features". Tesla is really stretching per the SAE spec.

https://www.sae.org/binaries/content/gallery/cm/articles/pre...

Tesla is literally the only automaker that does business in the US that advertises their assistance system this way.
Set up a new laptop for Ubuntu recently and opted for ZFS encryption, impressed it was now a mainstream install option. Sadly amused after setup that it suspends indefinitely without requiring the passphrase, ie. keeps unlocked volumes in memory. This makes the encryption basically pointless. (NB. This category of issue was highlighted in the recent interview by the resurfaced Alpha Bay operator, specifically after his former associate Cazes was bagged in Bangkok after an international police sting allegedly created a server issue explicitly to require him to log in to the so they could access his credentials unencrypted. The resurfaced operator's reported solution was apparently to always power down, even on a bathroom break.)
Out of curiosity, would Coinbase be allowed to post jobs on this site? Their policy as I understand it is “no political discussions at work,” which seems like it’s not a free speech stance.
SSB is a store and forward network, so this is sort of built in. Basically, you only see posts that are within a configurable number of hops in the follow graph, and if you block somebody then you don't replicate any of their posts to your followers, so if everybody you follow has somebody blocked then you'll never see their stuff even if they are followed by somebody one hop further out.

(Default hops is 3, and most people use 3, so functionally this doesn't matter much. But if it was 5 or something, this would matter a lot. It's also sort of why people recommend unfollowing pubs once you've built up a network you trust -- because pubs will connect to anybody who requests it, so even users with no redeeming qualities who no human being would choose to follow, like dedicate griefer accounts, will end up being replicated by a pub.)
Side thought...

I know numerous people who are concerned about nanobots in vaccines. When I see stories like this I expect it will reinforce their concerns.
This is how you end up with three layers of VMs for browsing the internet. Some gov organizations go a little into the deep end of security in the security-usability continuum.
Depends on whether the last nanobit is used for parity or data.

>Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Would my opinion be that you are wrong, it would not imply that:

- I'm right about you being wrong;

- my own view is right and spread it would be an act of correction.

> I meant that words are like signs; they point at the real thing.

Nothingness doesn't point at anything real by definition.

> We must be careful not to confuse the sign for the thing itself.

Nor the sign with an interpretation act stimulated by some sign.

> We can't simply rearrange words and assume that what this new sign, this new combination of words points to, is "real".

Words don't exist outside some interpretation process, by the way.

>Edit: First the thing exists, then we use a word to refer to it.

That's a bit trickier. Because before someone use a word to refer to something, this word didn't exist. Naming things is a performative action. Through words, not only can you gain new knowledge that you can challenge through non-verbal actions, but they change the reality itself as it introduces new relationships in the world that where not present before there were used as a reference tool.

It's way more than that. Imagine trying to open a gas station without being required to provide restrooms, handicapped spaces, environmental permitting, and all the other headaches that come with opening any other business location, let alone the requirements that are gas station specific.

Especially since time to charge basically guarantees the occupants will be getting out of the car, which isn't the case for 5 min fill-ups at gas stations.
i.e. "Cobblers repair shoes of all kinds", which sounds an awful lot like a tautology.

But it's actually a good point. As a practical minded consumer of clothes (read: unfashionable), this article did make me wonder why I've gotten so used to buying new shoes when my old ones wear out, instead of taking them to a cobbler.

I suspect the answer is that I can probably order a new pair for less cost than I could repair an old one, but I actually haven't checked the truth of this hypothesis in over a decade.

My injury was multi-factor. It started with a cycling injury. Medication taken from the cycling injury was partially a cause of the RSI coming on. It was also just a really stressful time with a lot of work.

But I had been in the field for ~15 years with no significant RSI, and those injuries and RSI weren't too long after I had switched to mechanical keyboards. I struggled for a few years. There's so much momentum behind mechanical switches it was really hard for me to convince myself they could be the problem, but I never got rid of it till I stopped using them.

I do think key travel is part of it. Playing piano is/was 10x worse than computer keyboards, even though nice piano actions have a softer "bounce" than any computer keyboard. The piano keyboard has huge travel. Meanwhile playing guitar the fretboard has absolutely zero give or cushioning, but the finger travel is extremely small, and it's never given me an issue. (I gave up piano to reduce chances of having an RSI again.)

There's no real proof/study of travel vs bounce anyway with respect to fatigue and injury.
I strongly agree with this - before I realized that plump helmets are an absolute necessity for an early fortress (you have a lot more freedom now - but for a while not immediately building a plump helmet farm would be a really bad decision) I really struggled to have fun - once you've got a general idea of which decisions aren't totally stupid then you reach the interesting choices.

I think that with a proper tutorial there'd be a much more immediately interesting set of choices. I would say though that Civilization has always had obviously bad choices that aren't clear to new players - most games take this approach where the player is given a lot of obvious choices to feel good about rejecting. The difference is that in most games these choices are rather artificially created and clearly signaled because they're obviously wrong (Sorry - are you sure you wanted to create that Barbarian with 18 WIS and CHA and 3 STR and CON?) - in dwarf fortress it's harder to detect those terrible choices due to having pretty much every option open to you as soon as you start a new game (except a few gated features like Law and Nobility).

That all said - maybe you could make a fortress work where you set up a pottery commune and don't actually set up any agriculture - just try and rely entirely on trade to feed your dwarves.

This is not true in a world where most white-collar workers have been working from home for two years (or, increasingly, can afford Teslas), and service employees have to drive to work every day.

Look, I want a carbon tax. It's good on net. But it's regressive and the people will never vote to support it. I live in deep-blue WA and even here the public rejected it.

What about an airplane’s autopilot? Self steering. Don’t need a human pilot, right?

Point is, the name of the technology rarely describes what the thing does. Because if it’s a new technology 1) there is no adequate word in the language and 2) the technology itself is evolving, so the name is more of a symbol for the hopes and aspirations behind that technology.

If you do a survey among Tesla customers, you’ll see that nobody of them thought the car would be capable or allowed to drive on its own without human oversight and intervention. Tesla says that on the website, there are hundreds of videos and blog articles, and the vehicle itself reminds you of that when you a) enable FSD in the settings and b) whenever you activate the function.

Literally nobody is being mislead here, and nobody needs to be protected from being mislead. It’s a clickbaity non-story we’ve been hearing since 2016. It has nothing to do with protecting consumers.
Being critical of certain regulatory bodies is not the same as "wanting socialism for yourself, rugged individualism for everyone else". Elon is a proponent of UBI, and every year for the past 20 years has worked on projects are intended to help all of humanity (green energy/transport, space travel, safe AI/human symbiosis). Not sure how that's wanting individualism for everyone else.

Electrics like Tesla and others blow far past the most stringent fuel economy minimums. The Model 3 sedan gets close to 140 MPG equivalent! You might expect the heavy, larger Model S to perform more poorly, and you'd be right...it only gets 93 mpg.

It's a simple matter of economics; even a big battery pack contains fewer kWh than a gas tank so electric cars essentially must be streamlined. Even the Cybertruck with its huge battery and utilitarian aesthetic is aerodynamic: It looks more like a crossover SUV than a conventional pickup truck, with its streamlined windshield, sail pillars, and automatic tonneau cover. This isn't for aesthetic reasons, it's because these changes are required to reach the desired range numbers. Low-rolling-resistance tires are standard on electrics not because they're cheap for electric vehicle manufacturers, but because they're cheaper than installing larger batteries. Meanwhile, before it even hits the torque converter or transmission, a gasoline engine only turns 25-30% of that chemical energy into useful work. Conversely, an electric motor turns 90-95% of the energy in the battery into useful work.

An electric vehicle that couldn't make the 27.5 mpg CAFE minimum would be pathetic and would not be a viable product.
Sure, the product's website doesn't display the price, and I agree that it should, but I was replying to this:

Developers don't need to (and, imo, shouldn't) put pricing in the App Store description, because that's what the auto-generated "In-App Purchases" list is there for.
I love mine too, got it with the quiet click switches and they feel really good. Mine occasionally gets stuck and repeats certain keys so I'm going to need to order a bag of replacement switches and replace them. I've heard that there was a bad batch of switches or something so I've been unsure if I should recommend it to others.

Hearing that you got a whole replacement keyboard I guess I should reach out to Matias and see if they'll send me some free switches so I can fix it myself.

If replacing switches doesn't fix it, I would love an excuse to tear it down and replace the firmware something custom.

Facebook/Google/etc displace previous iterations of the same services at a much larger scale. Their techno-optimist hope is that the scale can be managed by ever smarter algorithms. In practice, it turns out that in-person iterated human interactions have important moderation properties and can't be scaled out without losing something essential.

The decentralization impulse is yet another misguided techno-optimist hope of returning to smaller communities and thus somehow restoring the moderation effects of such settings. Which won't work, as the world of organic communities tied by kin relations (aka 'village') is completely different than the world of ever diverging echo chambers the Internet produces. The Global Village is intrinsically dysfunctional.

Facebook/Google cannot possibly perform healthy moderation at global scale, but fixing that can't be done short of banning the TCP/IP protocol.
