1. A stack frame usually takes up far more memory than the state that actually needs to be persisted, due to local variables and padding from alignment requirements. With a stack container, you can specify exactly what gets stored, and save on your memory footprint.

2. There are very few knobs you can tweak to control how your call stack space is allocated or represented in memory. With a stack container, you have much finer control over that - you can do reallocations or define custom error handling when you overflow the container, you can deallocate/shrink the container when you no longer need the space, you can serialize the container to disk to make your processing resumable, etc.

3. A call stack has a very limited set of operations. You can only access data from the current stack frame, and you can only push/pop (call/return) stack frames. But with your own stack-like data structure, you could extend it to do far more, e.g. accessing data from the first or last n traversals, or insert/remove multiple elements at once.
And it's not just social media either. Traditional media plays a big role in framing the discussion, as in every debate they make a point in making sure that to the other side of the responsible and well spoken scientist there's some rabid lunatic; thus the finer points never see the light of the day and everyone else trying to raise them gets bunched with the lunatics.
This is how hard it is to get any sense into indoctrinated anti-vaxxers. The actual facts are rejected as propaganda and reeducation. They won't trust eminently respectable sources of truth like the CDC or the WHO.

However, wildly untrustable sources with dubious motives are accepted as truth with no filter.

How did the adversaries hack their brains and lock the door behind them?

You say "causing it". They may be, but I suspect most of them aren't actively, deliberately causing it. So they can still be (and are) caught by surprise when it happens.

if your connection require authentication, like pppoe, you can just disable the dhcp on the modem and use statis addresses between the modem and the pi.
then the actual connection will be established by the pi via pppoe and the only DHCP would be the pi when it is up.

As for the security implications, i agree.. It surely is a crappy design for the network but it can be done..

News companies have known for centuries that Fear Uncertainty and Doubt are profitable. They've shrouded the FUD behind claims of professionalism and legitimacy.

The internet has made it instantly and continuously accessible, and just as dangerously, largely fabricated. Even news about things that actually happened can have its comments astroturfed by bad faith arguments or straight up lies.

Censorship doesn't solve the FUD; that will never go away while there's a profit motive (IE, increase clicks).

Censorship can't distinguish between truth and lies, that's a problem journalism used to solve when it was profitable.

Censorship does solve brainwashing. Is the tradeoff worth it? Hard to say.

All I know is all platforms legally need to censor illegal content, so it becomes a hammer looking for a nail.
You’re conflating “correct” and “persuasive”.

Given the resulting publicity and buzz this has gotten, I'd think the money spent was worth it from the museum's point of view.

"Haaning took the money as part of an agreement with the Kunsten, which says it loaned Haaning more than half a million kroner so he could frame the cash in a reprise of an earlier artwork."

They didn't just commission him to make art. The museum contracted him to reproduce a particular piece of art, which Haaning did not do.
This is a positive externality problem. A public goods problem. There is no incentive for each company to pay into a pile if another company doing so for them would get the same results.

The only way this will ever get resolved is if companies collectively join together and decide to pay. Like say, we could have a tax, that they pay the country they operate in, and that tax could then subsidize these free open source projects that produce positive externalities.
If you look at the policy, you'll see that this isn't aiming at the doctor who says that some people don't need the vaccine, but specifically at people who spread specific claims that are considered solidly disproven with overwhelming consensus: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/11161123

You definitely raise valid points about the side effects of false positives during enforcement and the resulting self-censorship, but the other side of the coin is that we've seen that we unfortunately do have to worry about the wackos too.

Even that's not very large. Moving from a bytecode VM to a JIT is a big jump in codebase complexity that all future maintainers and contributors to Ruby will have to take on. The set of people who can contribute to a JIT is much smaller than to a bytecode VM. I'd guess one or two orders of magnitude.

I can't see that codebase complexity being worthwhile unless the JIT at least gives you something like 2-3x better perf across the board. In Java and JS VMs, you do see an improvement of that scale.
> What just amazed me is how gullible all the investors were, and how they didn't do due diligence, hire outside experts, or anything. Weird.

If you look at the investors, with few exceptions, they were _not_ sophisticated VC firms with experience in the area. Most of them were, for want of a better classification, elderly rich people. This should probably, in retrospect, have been a huge red flag.
Organization, sure, but the question is better posed to the humans in that organization.
So, why would DEA agents want to undermine their agency's funding?

Ethics. Morality. The desire to not be a horrible excuse for a human being inflicting needless pain and suffering and destroying the lives of the people their agency is ostensibly charged with serving. Not perpetuating the horrible status quo that's corrupted the spirit of their mission and accepting the will of the people.
OK, that is good to know - I will edit the post to reflect that (and also remove the poor use of the word 'cache').
> How exactly are you planning on preventing one of your end-hosts from pulling the external IP by accident anytime the modem or pi gets rebooted?

Depends on the modem, but since many of them are also routers you just set them up to do single-nat to a static IP corresponding to the "WAN" address of your pi and otherwise not act as a DHCP server at all. Otherwise you could also get a static IP from your ISP so nothing ever changes.

> Are you going to make every host on the LAN a static IP?

No, they get DHCP addresses from the pi.

> Ignoring the security implications.

I said it was possible, not that it was a good idea.

I agree the vaccine does decrease the incidence of severe illness, even in the new variants. Based on this fact it should be given to the vulnerable.

A policy of mass vaccination to protect the vulnerable is a different thing and is more related to the concept of herd immunity. It can be very bad policy depending on the nature of the virus. Its really good policy for something like measles. Here's a link that takes a deep dive on how this relates to covid and the corona virus:

Hey, I think your comment is interesting and raises a number of valid points, and I basically agree with you. I spent about 40 minutes drafting and redrafting more detailed replies, but everything I could think of saying read like kicking off a very rote/standard internet discussion about politics and religion, and I wouldn't wish that upon either of us.

So many other parts had to be done in a specific manner or left out entirely to get committee consensus, yet this was written into the spec even though Apple has opposed it from the beginning.

The validity of Apple's reasoning makes it even stranger.
It is, if nothing else, hopefully proof to anyone with eyes that the Left is just as susceptible as the Right to turning something which should mostly be a medical decision, into a political one. Let alone the possibility that it could be corruption (which I feel is unlikely, but not impossible).

Much ire was thrown at Trump during his Presidency for filling many government positions with Yes-men who would blindly fall in line with the party.

Now, we have Biden's White House ranting non-stop about Boosters, a significant amount of concern that the Federal government, as a whole, has no unified message on whether boosters are even necessary and who they're necessary for, a CDC panel saying they're not necessary, and the head of the CDC falling in line with the Biden White House against medical advice. Its awfully similar to what Trump was lambasted for.

Ultimately the position I fall back on is: These decisions are medical decisions. Politics (and, it follows, corruption) need to be removed. When you take issues to the national level, politics and corruption will ABSOLUTELY, undoubtedly, in 100% of instances, be involved, no matter how well-intentioned the cause is. Thus, these issues need to stay out of the federal government, and be handled among the smallest number of people possible. Vaccination, for me and my children, may be something my doctor recommends; it may be something my school system requires; maybe even my workplace and the state has a say. But the discussion inevitably reaches a lower and lower quality as more voices and mandates and requirements are added.

The counter-argument to this is: Vaccination is only strongly effective if we reach some level of herd immunity, so we need federal mandates. Unfortunately, that's irrelevant; we live in a democracy, and if you push against the other side too hard, they push back, your mandate gets repealed, and your yes-men lose their re-election.

There are always crises. The current ones are not even that great compared to historical problems. Fixing crises should not mean that you can erode democracy for the sake of fixing said crises. That is literally how totalitarian regimes start: by swift action needed to fix the current "insurmountable" issues. I am not saying that the US will become totalitarian, but taking steps in the wrong direction does not bode well.

And to address some of your points,

> voting restrictions

When people say this, it's usually about voter ID laws, which are the norm in most of the developed world, all of Europe has this, with the exception of UK. There might be some issues with voter discouraging, but it's not as big of a deal as some make it seem.

> division and distrust in institutions and democracy.

Well, the entire pandemic handling was rife with things that caused this mistrust in institutions. From the masks (e.g. Fauci, the surgeon general and others lying about them not being needed, and then Trump going against them anyway for political reasons) to vaccines where even the top democrats were saying all over the place they won't take them because they were rushed under Trump. Well, what do you know? They are still rushed, under Trump, but now we try to convince everyone they are perfectly safe (while Trump not pushing for them anymore). WHO covering for China's role in the initial spread. Democrats acting all high and mighty in regards to masks and public gatherings, only to be maskless themselves [1][2][3], sometimes in large gatherings[4]. Or like Pelosi, which personally called the beauty salon to have a special appointment, even though all the salons were closed. The republicans were at least consistently against science on this: both in front and behind cameras.

If the authorities cannot convince people about COVID truths, that is on them, not on the people talking freely about how they mistrust the government and their solutions.

Distrust in democracy will grow even larger with every censorship action.

As a disclaimer, I made my own masks and wore them in shops even before they were recommended, it was pretty obvious that an airborne disease is slowed by a mask. I was the only one in store with a mask, early on. I got my vaccine as soon as I could, driving half a day to get it. Throughout the pandemic I kept my social distancing to maybe extreme measures.

What is happening now is dangerous for democracy and society, we're handing over way too much power to the government, mass media and social apps. The government should make sure there are no monopolies, but if there are (like youtube, twitter, facebook, google search) they should make sure there is a public open oversight over the rules governing them. This is our standard oil battle but with higher stakes, and most people seem just happy to be boxed in by private corporations, with no recourse in the future.

Why not also state the opposite that they have been criticized for doing too much censorship of even valid and factual information? This clearly shows that the media lives in their own bubble.

mozilla conspiracy:

Mozilla referenced quite openly "Google sez PoW bad", idk if something this open is a conspiracy.

"Proof-of-work methods (e.g. blockchains) are harmful for sustainability
(s12y). Also as noted by __Google__, the registry contains methods which rely
upon proof-of-work which is wasteful. “Successful” proof-of-work
systems ..."

Google simply wants to own the entire identity stack end to end, and they can, because they own Android. Same with Apple. Apple is canvassing various jurisdictions right now with their Digital ID, and demands internal govt discussions use a codename and that nobody mentions Apple by name, and also try to restrict who gets to know, gonna be one anti-open standard if they get their way. Google is likely doing the same, haven't been following this stuff too closely these days, but their ventures arm has made investments all over in identity in the last decade.

centralized objection:

The DID push from Microsoft hinges on their ability to route around the mobile platform control (because they don't have a mobile platform), so that they can even begin to compete with Apple/Google here. I'm sure Apple and Google just love the idea of being cut out and commoditized.

That's all this is about, Microsoft not having a mobile platform. so now MSFT is fighting for an open standard, which is hilarious. They don't care if it's centralized on some identity provider like github or whatever. If you dig deep enough all identity is centralized in the end on the most authoritative source of identity: government. "decentrablazed" is just a window dressing.

I concede that this doesn't explain Mozilla actions very clearly, but they are at this point a mostly irrelevant player in the identity market anyway, nobody except their 3% of marketshare cares what they think. Mozilla just renewed their deal with Google for 400mil, so it could very well be an executive decision that "DID very bad, no matter what", and how their standards architects have to contort themselves into pretzels on mailing lists and invent new catchy acronyms. The mozilla-google contract terms haven't been published even in the roughest approximation, make of that what you will.

--- start quote #1 ---

Thanks to your ongoing efforts, my 40+ year old sibling finally got vaccinated about three weeks before getting infected by her kids. She still had it pretty bad, so I think it’s likely you saved her a trip to the hospital or worse.

She was on the brink of getting vaccinated weeks earlier, but “That Guy” had cast enough doubt that a family member talked her out of it. So I’m glad you specifically mentioned him back then. Thanks to our civilization’s shiny new censorship machine it was maddeningly difficult to actually find good counter arguments to his claims, since we’re all supposed to just pretend bad claims don’t exist. So mostly I had to just point to the favorable evidence rather than being able to give a point by point rebuttal.

[...]

And her family is fox news conservative, so all the tribal hate made it especially hard for her to take their claims seriously. She stayed up all night making her decision, and had 250 browser tabs open by the end. So people do try, and do pay attention.

I had the same experience. I wanted to know whether the “vector vaccines alter your DNA” claims had any truth to them, given that “dna altering virus” is definitely something that exists. As far as I can tell, this is (probably) false, but it was really hard to find any evidence beyond “prof. dr. X says this is a conspiracy theory, now get your vaccine they are safe and effective ™”. It was really frustrating; I’m not surprised that many people feel like they are being tricked.

I made a coworker really uncomfortable by offering to smoke him out after work when he was visiting our site. But there really wasn't any recourse - he was conservative visiting from a conservative area (where it was "understood" that pot is a hard drug). I'm from the Bay Area: I'd been smoking weed since I was 16.

I've always been cognizant of differing understandings around the drug, but I definitely think it still takes some discretion.

By the way, the key difference between a drink at lunch and some pot is that im pretty useful around 2p with a drink - stoned, I might as well go home for the day. (Of course, everyone's different).

So, I think this discussion is worth having in a respectful manner - it's new rules.
>I think that the old classical liberal principles still apply. A certain fringe of the population will eat any propaganda unthinkingly, domestic or foreign. But if a majority was so uncritical, democracies would have collapsed a long time ago.

I think most Americans are delusional and think "the good guy always win" because of the outcomes of WWI and WWII. The fact that Nazi Germany existed at all, or that democracy is non-existent in the second largest economy in the world should tell you that it's just not accurate to pretend that only the fringe of the population buys into propaganda.

53% of registered Republicans still believe Donald Trump won the 2020 election based on nothing other than propaganda... I think you underestimate how fragile Democracy is and you don't need to look much farther than Moscow.
