Cambridge Analytica style targeted political messaging, and retailoring of political formulae to personality/moral-foundations/IQ profiles, in order to create coalitions is the future of political messaging and activism. In many ways, now that the gameboard has changed so drastically, it's unavoidable.

This is how politics works now. It's not (just) Russia, or China, it's every political activism group or lobby that wants to achieve anything. Welcome to the new age.
I always thought that FB is somewhat complicit (not out of evilness necessarily).

I see a lot of "viral" posts - some like those mentioned in the article, but also a ton of odd woodworking, cooking, and "resin art" videos. The videos are quite repetitive and not really interesting so I wonder if they are maybe hidden ads, but they are not marked as such, and it is not clear what they are selling. (Well maybe they are trying to sell resin, which is really expensive.)

Anyway, it seems like they are different kinds of posts on FB. Some stay close to their point of origin, and only rarely get shown to other people who have not liked a page or are friends themselves. And other posts which, if somebody commented on or interacted in any way with them, get shown to their friends and friends-of-friends.

After running a charitable cause / political FB page for a while, I'm convinced that internally there are actually different categories of posts - ones that are shown to followers, and ones that are allowed to float or go viral. I really wonder what the mechanism is to get into the floating category. It doesn't seem to be based on quality, nor on money spent. Maybe it is some interaction metric that somebody learned to game?
padding 48, on small screens vertical padding 32 and horizontal padding 24, center styled? try doing that inline....

i always see this and never understand the pushback, or have people never worked on large apps spanning hundreds/thousands of components and have to maintain it.

it's a godsend when working on older components and i don't have to dig thru some other css file and figure out exactly how and why i named it. inline css doesn't allow to do transitions, animations, responsive breakpoints, etc. everything is there is contextual and i never break flow going from design to implementation. you still can have global styles or can have a master design guide.

I remember I recently did speed tests on the free wifi that they offer throughout Tokyo and it was always around 100-150Mbps u/d (I came across this clip when looking to verify[1]). It is kind of disheartening that they offer comparable internet speeds for free from old telephone booths that people in the west can pay over 50$/mo for even in large cities.

It's a HUGE issue when you look at low income, lower class individuals. A lot of the kids in those circumstances only get reprieve from their terrible home lives by going to school.

This is not to say it doesn't affect kids in other income classes but the effect is far worse on the lower class.

The younger the child is the worse as well.

With respect to cost, I'm not sure any of these points refute the hypothesis that charters cost less per pupil primarily because they are able to offload the most expensive students. And if that is true then increasing the number of charter schools will simply increase the concentration of the most expensive students into fewer schools that have less funding to deal with them. At that point we can either acknowledge that expensive students require an order of magnitude more money or we let them pass through to the welfare and justice systems. In either case it doesn't seem like we're saving society money by switching to charters, we're just shifting it to other parts of the budget.

With respect to educational opportunities that seems more compelling. But as Sowell alludes, I suspect you could get a similar effect by allowing public schools to enforce stronger discipline and make it easier to suspend or expel difficult students. On that note I'm surprised to hear that teachers unions are opposed to that now. I've certainly heard that unions are an obstacle to getting rid of poor-performing teachers, but I rarely hear of them being an obstacle to dealing with difficult students. At least a couple decades ago the AFT was actively pushing to make it easier to expel students for things like drugs or weapons in school.

Working on the AST is quite an interesting idea, until your comments aren't in the AST and you want to commit a syntax error of work in progress.

Not to mention changing ASTs (while maintaining concrete syntax) in different versions of the language.
> It seems from the outside that they’re choosing the latter.

I agree, but I think the reason why is "it won't happen to me" syndrome. Sure, other companies or people might get regulated out of existence, but in the short term maximizing profits and hoping or expecting to see the boulder rolling downhill in time to get out of the way is seen as the better plan. Because if you're right, you get to keep a lot of money. And if you're wrong, well, you don't think you'll be wrong.

This seems to be the thinking of our entire economic system in the United States. Grab as much money as humanly possible, regardless of any future consequences, even if the very act of the grabbing increases the odds of a much worse outcome.
Hey there, VisiData author here. Nice work with tv! I'm sure it's more useful than VisiData for certain use cases. I just want to clear some things up since there are a few misconceptions here (which will happen if you don't use VisiData a lot):

1. In VisiData, The number of rows is always shown in the lower right, and you can see the number of columns with either Ctrl+G or a list of the columns with Shift+C. Or Shift+I for the list of columns with summary statistics (mode/distinct/errors/etc). This is an extra keystroke, but the amount of data you can get with that keystroke more than justifies it.

5. VisiData will instantly open and show any file it can, and continue to load the rest until it's done or you press Ctrl+C (or quit). Everything in VisiData is lazily evaluated, so it's not actually doing any more work than tv when you view the first page of rows, and then you can see the next few pages of rows with only one keystroke (PgDn, as opposed to having to edit a command and rerun it). Fewer keypresses ftw!

A lot of people think VisiData is a TUI spreadsheet, but vd is not a "spreadsheet" in the classic sense, as it's not cell-based. Its primary use-case is exploring and wrangling tabular data. It just turns out that this is what a lot of people are doing with their spreadsheets, but they have to bend over backwards to get Excel/whatever to play nice with their data's structure. By the same token, if you try to do little single-cell formulas in VisiData, it's going to be quite difficult.

For people who like static binaries and only need to view a few rows of CSV files, or produce part of a larger report in a pipeline, tv could be a better fit than VisiData, especially if it continues to be maintained. I'm always excited to see new data tools in the terminal space!

Dear Chris, your blog is not very readable on a 4k monitor.
I recently read the new Gödel biography Journey to the Edge of Reason: The Life of Kurt Gödel and it was pretty clear that Von Neumann played a key role in getting Gödel out of Austria just prior to WWII. Gödel had been a visiting lecturer at the IAS at Princeton off and on in the 30s but probably due to his mental illness he would go back to Austria often with little notice - which didn't put him in good stead with IAS administration. In 1938 Gödel applied to teach at the University of Vienna but was turned down (Though not Jewish, he was considered to be too tied to what was labelled "Jewish science"). He was about to be conscripted into the German army which would have been a disaster given his many health problems. When Von Neumann became aware of Gödel's dire situation he lobbied his many powerful contacts in DC to come to Gödel's aid. Through diplomacy the Germans eventually allowed Gödel to leave under the condition that he would have to come back to serve in the army. He barely made it out in late '39 and probably wouldn't have without Von Neumann's intervention.

If the difference between a legitimate VPN provider and a criminal one is simply whether they publicise the fact that copyright infringement is possible on their service, then it seems that the law is no longer targeting copyright infringement, or even services which enable others to infringe copyright, but rather the act of telling people the truth about the possibilities of committing crimes.

To my non-expert mind, this begins to stray into First Amendment territory. What if someone were to write a fictional book in which a character used a "no logs" VPN to infringe copyright, and the narrative explained in detail the steps that the character took, and how unlikely they were to ever be caught? I can't imagine such a book being banned, or someone being arrested for writing it, even if they also happened to own the very company whose service is described in the book.

Perhaps there is some relevant case law around conspiracy charges that I am missing, though.
It says at the beginning that the actual UI wouldn’t be text based. Though, it seems like that leaves an open question of how to represent this?

I write and record music and this seems pretty useful as a tool for songwriting. I can think of some cases where the notes and photo notes for gear and the markers are useful. The instrument detection is I guess neat, but I can tell what I'm playing by listening. Stereo is also not really particularly appealing or interesting, especially if it has weird ML processing on it. One pain point I frequently hit when doing actual recording is saving settings from external analog devices if I want to recall them in a future session via notes. This seems like this could be close to covering this scenario as well. Congrats on launching.

> Why was Ozy trying to mislead Goldman about its relationship with YouTube?

WHAT!? Even if I were to accept the mental health claim, that's only going to cover the lapse in judgement. I don't think it's reasonable to deflect on their being an intent to mislead Goldman by literally impersonating a senior YouTube executive to boast about your company. Simply saying "we were not" is really not a defense here.
Alexander Litvinenko, Boris Nemtsov, Alexei Navalny

There's no evidence that Putin is related to death of these persons. BTW, Navalny is alive and well and all the evidence shows that he was probably "poisoned" by the CIA to create another "victim" of Putin's regime.

Besides, Navalny is a terrorist on CIA payroll. He's working on destroying Russia from within. He was recruited and trained abroad and most of his "donations" are coming from western governments and spy agencies. Nobody trusts him here.
Well, first of all, when I wrote Wii, I wasn't even thinking into the distinction between Wii and Wii U.

Secondly, the Cafe SDK documentation clearly refers to OpenGL 3.3, and GX2 is basically OpenGL in spirit while using naming and some utility functions, which fits "GL based API similar to GL 3.3".

Just to be clear, I'm not saying Instagram the app is directly responsible. I'm saying Instagram the organization is directly responsible for killing people, by leveraging their app into a toxic cesspool so as to realize the most gains from it. From my perspective, Facebook chose to ratchet the dial on Instagram's (the app) addictive and harmful powers to a full 11. Teenagers seem to be paying the price. This, to me, is unacceptable. I'm not blaming the app for doing what it does, I'm blaming the people that make and deploy it.

Going to your planter's nuts example: if their salty nuts presented a significant health risk, on the merit of what it is, and Planters' reasonably discloses that to the customers, then I'm fine with it.

If Planter's intentionally makes their product more harmful to get greater profits, but still reasonably discloses the risk of their product, then I'm angry but I understand.

If Planter's chooses to create an extremely addictive product, hides their research which acknowledges fatal risk, deceives Congress by way of technical half truths, dedicates their platform to spreading propaganda about how good they are, and puts out PR spin to placate the seething masses... then all I can say is that they deserve Kaczynski.

> Yup that’s why every private school that had honest staff and wasn’t bound by the National Teachers Union who were playing political games was in person most of last year.

Teachers' unions are so weak in my state that they're nearly worthless as far as contract negotiation & enforcement goes, yet every district I know of in my city had a well-attended online option last year, if they weren't fully online, and in-person was largely "hybrid" (in-person some days, remote other days). The unions had nothing to do with it. Parents and teachers—not their unions, just teachers, directly—drove most of the decisions.
