However, I am not trying to attack you. To give you credit, media is more extreme and biased, except for specific news outlets and sites. Of course based on your beliefs we might not agree on which ones those are.
I remember reading something similar that studied online spaces in general and found similar trends. I wasn't able to find that article, but I found this one for Twitter [1]. It's an important to remember that when lurking any online forums. The vast majority of content is submitted by individuals who live their entire lives through online spaces. The narratives being formed by people who are by definition, not normal. Sometimes that can be beneficial, like when one person submits over 76k SQL answers on Stack Overflow [2], and sometimes it can be destructive, like when a tiny fraction of disconnected radicals can present fringe political ideas as mainstream (aided by a complicit media).

Somewhat related, I encountered this curious phenomenon myself accidently when trawling through CBC news articles in the lead up to the latest Canadian election. I casually scrolled through the comments for some guilty pleasure entertainment, and found the same few commenters posting on every single article. I took a peak at the profiles of two commenters who were flighting over their political view points and found they each had over 100k comments.... On CBC news articles....

If they are worried about their priests having children, why don't they use technology? Separate the fertility problem from sexual desire and the need for intimacy. A young priest could have a vasectomy before taking over his own church. Then he could establish a healthy relationship without having to hide his needs.

Cloud egress costs are the primary lock-in mechanism for cloud providers and that's been recognized as such for many years. This isn't the kind of thing which changes an industry in less than a week but I doubt you will want to defend this claim a year from now — Cloudflare is an established, rather popular company which many large organizations already trust and this gave them either significant savings or a big negotiating crowbar.

The Taiwan Firm That Makes the World’s Tech Run
Here's Vinge on the subject:

> 2001 V. Vinge in Locus Jan. 69/1

> In 1982, on a scientific panel, it occurred to me that with all these ideas I had been talking about and others had been talking about earlier, basically if we ever did get a human-equivalent intelligence, very soon things would be very different. Since the creative impetus would not be from us, it would be in some sense unknowable… This panel was the first time I used the term ‘technological singularity’. I did a 900-word piece about that in ’83 in Omni, and almost all my science fiction has been dealing with it. In ’92 or ’93, NASA asked me to come and give a talk on it, and I did an essay where I also tried to look at precursors. In John von Neumann’s obituary written by Stan Ulam, he relates a conversation he had with von Neumann in which he even uses the term ‘essential singularity’. To me, von Neumann’s notion was not quite the same thing. He was saying that technological progress would become so advanced that the situation would be unknowable—that much is like what I was saying. But to me, the fundamental reason for the technological singularity is, technology creates something that is smarter than human.

https://sfdictionary.com/view/294/singularity

From Ulam's obit.:

> "One conversation centered on the ever accelerating progress of technology and changes
in the mode of human life, which gives the appearance of approaching
some essential singularity in the history of the race beyond which
human affairs, as we know them, could not continue.

Article doesn't even mention their dip into email with SPF, DKIM and DMARC record builders. After spending a long time in that industry, I've always thought a solution that was fully integrated with the DNS provider was the ideal.

They are just getting started with the record builders but there's a huge potential runway if they want to take this to its natural finish.

IMO Cloudflare poses the biggest danger to a company like Valimail or Redsift that relies on DNS automation for their solution.

Integrated providers like Mimecast probably don't have anything to worry about. Nor would expertise driven companies focused on consulting, deployment or IT education like dmarcian IMO.

Before occupy Wall Street, maybe? Or before the recession? When it was just a college thing, it was great. I distinctly remember facebook during college being the same content makeup I get today when actually talking to friends. Photos from the weekend, conversation, invitations to the beach, jokes, etc. And you got these big albums, so it wasn’t IG’s carefully curated perfect-life-looking shininess.

Maybe they shouldn't, but...

The 'big picture' he hasn't understood isn't just about text rendering in this instance, though. It's also a picture internal to Microsoft that motivates their commitment to certain libraries. I think the disconnect is to be expected, given that he's not currently at Microsoft. It may also be that some of those commitments are not as well motivated as MS thinks (i.e., maybe the additional maintenance burden of some specialized text rendering libraries for the simplified case of terminals is not so terrible and justified by the performance gains). I don't think this shows that at Microsoft he'd be unable to have a good sense of 'the big picture'.

It's also not clear that any of this shows he isn't a team player. The Windows Terminal developers are colleagues of his in the distant sense of 'fellow developers', but they're not 'his team'. He doesn't have pre-existing relationships with them. And his frustration was in being told 'this cannot be done' in a way that was insufficiently clear and convincing to him and came across as condescending. I think it's reasonable to be frustrated under those circumstances, feeling ignored and maybe also like someone is bullshitting you. I could see the interaction being different if Casey had a different relationship to the other developers and they were more invested in trying to loop him in on their whole suite of platform commitments that ground (or trap) them in the current design, especially if he felt like advocacy for alternative commitments (e.g., to maintaining a separate, simplified stack for rendering text on the terminal) might be reasonably considered.

I'm also sympathetic to some of the MS devs here, because some of Casey's tone could have been taken as suggesting that they weren't really making an effort with respect to performance and that could be insulting. I don't think it was necessarily wrong for them to bring that up. But I don't think Casey was abusive, either, and it doesn't seem like anything that went down in that thread is beyond repair to the point that the people involved in the discussion couldn't work together.

If Casey were interested in working at Microsoft I think it'd be silly to rule him out as a candidate based on what we can see in that thread.
1. “there are people definitely accumulating chips who-knows-where in the supply chain,” says Liu.

2. “we had to try hard to scout out competent technicians and workers.” Liu notes that costs in the U.S. have turned out to be “much higher” than TSMC expected.

3. It all points to a localization craze driven by politics rather than by science or business. After all, opening a fab in the U.S. affects only one small part of the manufacturing process. Today, semiconductors are typically designed in the U.S., fabricated in Taiwan or South Korea, tested and assembled in Southeast Asia, and then installed into products in China. It is already incredibly specialized: as much as TSMC dominates foundry services, only the Dutch firm ASML produces those advanced lithography machines that all its fabs rely on.

4. After all, the $100 billion investment that TSMC unveiled does not stand alone. It is combined with and augmented by the deep R&D pockets of Apple, Nvidia and all TSMC’s other close partners to create a “budget that is 100 times what you will see on their financials,” says Nenni. “It’s just impossible for any company or country to catch up to this huge ecosystem that’s moving forward like a freight train.”

5. “The U.S. should focus on their strengths: system design, AI, quantum computing, those forward-looking things,” says Liu. TSMC may already have won 2030, but the decade after is still up for grabs.
They were bailouts, because, without Fed's guarantees, no financial institution would loan money to most of these badly-managed, reckless corps. And they are doing the exact same thing again, knowing they will be bailed out again.

Slightly different but similar thing: SublimeText and a few other modern editors allow one to open multiple side by side views, which may allow you to achieve similar. Most of them can do this with distinct source files, but I know Sublime at least can do multiple views into the same file.
Man, if we start taking issue with "Am I missing something?", how can we have productive, good-faith discussions? The only attitude I can associate with that is openness to learn, a genuine curiosity.

How is a yes/no question aggressive? At that point the maintainers had two possible responses:

1. Yes you are missing that ...

2. No that is the complete picture.

But they chose to side channel to a third possibility, "we are put-off by your questioning!". Excuse me what?

Sydney might be proud and vain but his statement of relevance here was not due to that. Scientists are supposed to constantly try and indemnify what’s hard and important and pursue those fields. He said that statement because back then he believed the important fields to explore were developmental biology and neuroscience. More recently he wrote an editorial suggesting how a field like connectomics would be the equivalent new, exciting, important field would be.

The celebration of mediocrity with Nobels for no real reason except probably politics (I sat near to the Nobel cabals in lectures these candidate prize winners will come give talks at) isn’t in the interest of science or progress is all.

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes! DDIA is amazing. It is _the_ premier reference manual, as far as my brain and I are concerned. It's the only "computer book" I keep next to my computer. (Not that I reference it frequently enough to justify its proximity; it's mostly so I can tell people "DDIA is the only 'computer book' I keep next to my computer." But still... it's great.)
The gold standard for thinking about the limits of AI is the work of Herbert Dreyfus, specifically the books What Computers Can't Do: The Limits of Artificial Intelligence published in 1972, and the revised What Computers Still Can't Do: A Critique of Artificial Reason, published in 1992, and Mind over Machine, from 1986.
I don't understand why that would be a problem--programming languages interact with databases at runtime via SQL. I regularly use Go which lacks sum types, but there's nothing technically difficult about generating SQL that leverages sum types--except that SQL doesn't support sum types :).
Yes. I only touched it briefly: ""we all need to share data (Lot details, Crop details, Product details, Lab Results, etc)""

Cannabis is heavily regulated, each tree, each lot, each lab-result, each everything in the system is required to have a unique identifier on it; it's a government required compliance thing. Cannabis businesses MUST do this.

But then BusinessA sends to BusinessB for toll-processing the plant-matter into oil. The lots, and associated data must be sent from one system to the others -- so they are both reporting the same identifiers (it's how the government is supposed to track inversion/diversion). And once BusinessB finishes processing, they may test it at a lab (BusinessC). Then BusinessB sells/returns some of the material back to BusinessA. A and B need the lab result data from C (it's like 170 data points, and a (signed) PDF). And when A and B package that material and sell to BusinessD (retailer) then the lot identifiers, product/package details, lab results, PDF, etc all need to be sent.

All that happens "seamlessly" (it's actually not, but a longer post) -- so for A,B,C and D it mostly "just works". And at the moment that "just works" bridge in Washington is going away. It's why we've had renewed interest in our project -- by BusinessA,B,C,D,etc -- even when they don't use our solutions. They are using competitors software, calling me asking if we've reach out to VendorM (we have, many times), then tell me they haven't discussed with their software provider, but then setup a meeting with businesses using a mix of the software and staff from the providers and those business owners say: "the fuck man, we shouldn't even be having this conversation; you guys should have figured this shit out already." (actual quote).

And at those meetings the other software vendors couldn't agree to agree; hadn't even looked at our proposal and could hardly even commit to agreeing that, in theory, interop was a generally good idea.
There is video of the security assaulting him and some others, including the person taking the video.

Even if he is an outright nazi (debatable, but he sure uses nazi stuff for "trolling" and "humor" as he puts it), and even if he refused to leave (he said he was in the process of leaving, CCC said he refused to leave) etc, this is not OK nor is it legal. You call the police and, file trespassing charges and have the police remove him and the courts sanction him.

Even if he was physically violent in the time prior to the video (which nobody alleges, just a hypothetical), he clearly wasn't anymore at this point, and you do not get to retaliate; you file assault charges and have the police remove him or arrest him.

If he screamed nazi salutes or demanded the murder of ethnic groups (which nobody alleges either), then... you call the police for trespassing, and since this was in Germany, for using prohibited nazi signs/slogans (§ 86a StGB) and or "incitement of the public" (Volksverhetzung, § 130).

If he was filming (he said he did start to film once security became aggressive, CCC said filming in the space is a big no-no in general), then you still do not get to assault him.

The only legitimate reason for security to use violence would be if they had to defend themselves or others from physical attack. And no, words and disobedience are not the kind of violence that entitles you to violent self-defense.
Proposition to change the term "artificial intelligence" to "learned habits".

There are a lot of tasks that we humans do the same way as a machine does- repeating a set of mental and/or physical patterns until it becomes second nature to us. Those are called "habits" and those are precisely what machines are good at doing.

In Town with Little Water, Coca-Cola Is Everywhere. So Is Diabetes. (2018)
It seems that there are two separate problems here:

1) States aren't valuing this above the closed source tracking solutions.

2) Some states aren't actively looking for a new solution (having one in place already).

Unfortunately both of these are hard problems to solve, and have almost nothing to do with technology (which it sounds like is your area of expertise).

> we assume that everyone knows distributed/federated systems are a good design goal

This sort of assumption is sadly not true, at least from what I've seen. I'm in the UK and we have the Government Digital Service. They're pretty much one of the best government IT services departments in the world, 18F was modelled on them and they train other governments to set up equivalent programmes.

GDS finds this hard! That's one centralised organisation, with wide veto power, and loads of deep tech/policy understanding that means they do value things like distributed/federated systems. Despite this, and while they've managed to overhaul the UK govt's IT services, they haven't substantially overhauled the open data scene. Even standards like Gov.UK Verify (distributed/federated identity verification) hasn't really caught on as they hoped after ~8 years.

If arguably the best placed organisation to roll this sort of thing out struggles to do it from inside a government, then I'm not sure that a tech-focused non-governmental organisation is going to manage this without very significant leverage.

That's what those existing tracking solutions probably do – they lobby. They'll spend money on lobbying (marketing) and sell contracts.

---

I'm sorry this is such a negative answer, I'm all for open source interop protocols, but I guess I'm suggesting that you need to view it from a different perspective.

Assume that they don't care about it being open-source or federated. Assume that the closed source competitors are lobbying and doing all they can to legally bribe decision makers. Assume that even if you were actual government employees implementing this, that it would be an uphill battle.

Now, what can be done from those assumptions? Some things that come to mind are – grassroots organisation, getting everyone else onboard so that the incumbent tracking is essentially pointless? Maybe try for some legal challenge on the grounds of competition?
Maybe hire someone who has sold the incumbent contracts to help you "sell" this in the tender process as if it were an existing solution.

I wish you all the best of luck, I'd love to see more open-source interop protocols for everything!
