>Explicit subsidies that cut fuel prices accounted for 8% of the total and tax breaks another 6%. The biggest factors were failing to make polluters pay for the deaths and poor health caused by air pollution (42%) and for the heatwaves and other impacts of global heating (29%).

I really don't like this "literally every bad thing we can put a price on is a subsidy" logic.
Bose used to have some pre internet system that recognized the song you liked to play right after another song (like in a random shuffle) and attempted to learn what you liked to hear, and queue up the song you were likely to skip to anyway. No idea how they pulled it off since this must have been on hardware from 15 years ago iirc.

Ehh, sending user data to a third party would be bad, but from my reading of the article it's not sending user data, just anonymous metrics:

> Participants agreed to share limited and anonymous information—specifically, the amount of time they spent on Facebook, the number of times they visited the site, and the number of friends, groups, and pages they were following and not following, both in total and broken down by category. (For regular Unfollow Everything users, the only Facebook-related data shared was the ratio of followed profiles to total profiles, a metric that helped me ensure the tool was working.)
> And WTF is this "new economics" bit?

It's talked about quite often and it's most significantly the idea that government doesn't have to worry about spending money it doesn't have. The formal form is usually called Modern Monetary Theory.
Trut, that helps. However, even medium sized companies are often spread across multiple cities and timezones so it only helps to an extent. Having a single point of failure for literally everything seems to be a pretty large elephant in the room here.
"Explicit subsidies that cut fuel prices accounted for 8% of the total and tax breaks another 6%. The biggest factors were failing to make polluters pay for the deaths and poor health caused by air pollution (42%) and for the heatwaves and other impacts of global heating (29%)."

They estimate that globally, almost $6 trillion in subsidies are given to the fossil fuel industry. But aren't they miscalculating?

Venezuela for instance subsidizes their fuel at 2.5 cents per gallon. Who is the recipient of the subsidy in this case? Their state oil company or the citizens buying cheaper fuel?

Similarly with pollution. If one drives an F150 around town instead of a Prius, who is the recipient of the "cost of global warming" subsidy? It seems like it's the end user in both cases, not the drilling company.

You linked to an article that does not support what you say, as the EFF (who you link to) has repeatedly made clear. Nothing in section 230 requires a platform to be content neutral. It protects publishers who are blatantly biased as well as those that are neutral.

For example, suppose you run a site that is dedicated to getting Republicans elected to office, must of the site content is user comments, and you ban users who criticize Republicans. So you are not content neutral. Section 230 still protects you: if a comment libels someone, the person that posted it, not the site, is legally responsible.

What Is a “Good” State of Consciousness?
You're right. The root of this problem isn't Facebook. It's the fact that private media companies are in control of what should be a peer to peer conversation between people.

There is no way to fix social media. If we moderate it too much, it's "censorship." If we don't then the engagement algorithms will drive mass indoctrination into crazy ideologies that have high virality. If we do try to eliminate disinformation, who decides what is and is not correct? There's no solution to these problems because media -- mediation -- is the problem.
Don't forget that all of those numbers are only available via the internal directory which just went down....

Would love to get your take on if python is popular in large organizations because of the existing libraries or if it is the language asethetic itself?

To an outsider who knows a bit of python because of Airflow and Spark, it seems Python has become a popular metaprogramming language that various disparate ecosystems have all adapated.

Pyspark is python but kind of its own language and much of the processing is happening outside the python runtime. I think you could say the same for people doing Numpy or Pandas.

Tensorflow probably even more so where I believe Python is the most popular interface, but you're really just programming a program to run somewhere else. Again this is the same with Airflow conceptually, though I believe the runtime is python.

If my hypothesis is overall correct, and that a majority (or large share) of python programmers aren't sharing the same ecosystem, libraries and packages, then shifting to a different runtime or language that just encapsulates a subset of the language is much less challenging.

This is the opposite problem of the JVM, where no one really likes Java the langauge, so everyone tries to create enjoyable (and productive) languages for the jvm to keep using the libraries and the runtime optimizations.
That's quite literally not how 230 works, and completely ignores the historical reasons of why 230 was created.

I hope there is some legislation on 230 and/or algorithmic recommendations. An idea I've started to see more is 230 protections apply when you do not recommend and, vice-a-versa, the protections are void when you have algorithms prioritizing content.

This should apply to more than FB or social media, but also to news outlets and anyone generally using algos to create feeds which impact human perceptions and decision making.

I don't think the government is up to the task for creating an effective regulatory body, or that a govt run regulatory body would be effective. An interesting alternative I came across (more generally) is for the government to authorize private regulators and let them compete for best outcomes. How this avoids the DC funding loop, I'm not sure...

I agree, the whole "facebook has the right to do this" is a deflection that quickly derails the discussion.

It's not the point. The point is: Sure Facebook can do that, but the fact that they do shows us how dishonest the people working there are with all the claims they make.

Facebook has the right to do this, we have the right to call them out on it just the same.
I have just under ten years of AA (and sobriety) under my belt, so I have heard a lot of war stories. I can't remember ever hearing anyone claim more than about 0.65% BAC. 1% sounds more than a little extreme.
The author, as I see it based entirely on this one article, likely wasn't trying to "hurt their business," unless (lol) their business is unhealthy addiction. Building on your example, imagine your store was of the liquor variety, and someone placed a flier for the local AA meeting on the bulletin board. I doubt you would remove it.
Not sure if any of you folks have tried asking your friends which companies they wouldn't work for, irrespective of the pay, but it's interesting.

Something like court-mandated federation is not completely out of the question in the EU, given that the GDPR requires "data portability" between digital services, including "the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible."[0]

I suspect a big American corporation like Facebook would have a hard time persuading an EU court that it wasn't technically feasible for it to automatically duplicate your Facebook posts onto a competing Fediverse instance where you have an account, and the court could even decide that the "natural" technological implementation would be to broadcast your Facebook posts directly to your friends across the Fediverse.

Sadly the language of the GDPR seems to only mandate the export of personal data from the site where it is stored, and not grant the complementary right to have data imported. This means Facebook wouldn't have to show you the posts of any of your Fediverse friends, and it also wouldn't export your Facebook friends' posts to be viewable on your Fediverse account (unless they also had a Fediverse account and chose to export those posts themselves).

Excellent and informative article--and a good bit of brand-building, I might say :-). One thing I'd love to see more writing about is prototyping and iterative development in these contexts--deep NNs are notoriously hard to get "right", and there seems to be a constant tension between model architecting, tuning hyperparameters, etc.--for example, you presumably don't want to have to wait a couple of weeks (and burn through thousands of dollars) seeing if one choice of hyperparameters works well for your chosen architecture.

Of course, some development practices, such as ensuring that your loss function works in a basic sense, are covered in many places. But I'd love to see more in-depth coverage of architecture development & development best practices. Does anyone know of any particularly good resources / discussions there?

It does a lot of basic things right:

- iterators everywhere

- context managers

- generators

- namespaces

- powerful function arguments

- a good stdlib

- unicode handling

- string formatting

It's easy to get started, and then to get going.

Turns out a lot of people value that.
I don't believe it a single bit. They are hiring a bunch of engineers right after school, and a lot of engineers still believe that FB is a good product because they're using it on the daily.
A SEP, and other retirement accounts, are trusts. The manager of your accounts is the trustee of those accounts. It can't be just you with a retirement account, there is always a trustee.

E.g. Mass Mutual Trust Company, Directed Trust Company, etc

The LLC is owned by the SEP (the trust). Anything owned by the LLC is in the SEP.
I bought one of those years back when I was "bidet curious". I'm still using it, as it does the job well enough. I don't need my butt blow-dried nor do I require warmed water, so I just keep using this one instead of upgrading to something ten times the cost.

My wife still refuses to use it, even when we were still scrambling to find TP.
A bit of an aside, I love chess because it forces you to think several moves ahead including game-theorizing what your opponent will do. I want to teach it to my kid for this reason.

I never got into timed chess but I can see it be valuable because it forces you to trade off between over-thinking and running out of time and under-thinking and making bad moves. This is also a real life skill.

But I know that my personal game will always stay amateur because once you're in the timed game space, you can't get too far without memorizing opening and to me that crosses the line from "fun and overall developmental" to "work."
I, unfortunately, still use a cheap 60hz acer monitor from my workplace.

I don't mind the occasional tearing — I usually only notice it when using autoscroll in Firefox at a lower speed/velocity.

As a remote SWE, I sit in front of my computer all day every day, so I find that the benefit in speed I get from removing at least one frame of input lag outweighs the occasional tearing which occurs as a result. I'm not exactly sure why, but I haven't noticed any tearing when playing video content.

I also spend a lot of time in XQuartz, which has some longstanding rendering bugs unless you disable vsync.

Not getting into a downward spiral from tilt is fairly straightforward for me, when you lose two or three games in a row simply don't play more that day. In general, I play at most a few games a day and it helps a lot. If you want to just get practice with a specific opening or play out your frustration there's always computer games, too. When I practice with the computer I usually set the difficulty considerably higher than my own level, it helps me find weaknesses in my own play that I would usually get away with at my own rating level. I also don't mind losing to the computer. For some reason there's no emotion in losing to a computer whereas there is in losing to another human player.

Is this any different from any new tech? The first car owners had to know a lot about taking care of that car. When I was young, you were expected to know how to do many regular maintenance tasks on your car and fix the simple things. Today most people couldn't do much of anything on a new car. Same trajectory.
I can see this being the case sometimes, but I don't think it's always true that university libraries want to discourage textbook loans or funnel students to the bookstore. the one I work in, for instance, has staff dedicated to working with academic departments /and/ the bookstore to reduce course materials costs through ebook acquisitions, OER adoption, etc.

maybe it helps that our bookstores are fully owned and operated by the university rather than being leased to e.g. Follett or B&N.

If that would be considered an issue, it would be the least worrying thing about smartphone addiction.

A question i’ve often wondered about is how much slower could you make python before users would leave it behind?

Python is often 1-2 orders of magnitude slower than java. That really is a lot yet Python and Java are about comparable in adoption.

> Facebook needs to act as a content neutral public utility platform if they want to remain protected by section 230 of the Communications Decency Act.

No, they don't. The EFF would be lying if they said this, which, however, they do not anywhwere in the piece you link to support this assertion.

Not only does Section 230 explicitly protect non-content-neutral actions [0], the legislative history and context of Section 230 and the Communications Decency Act as a whole—a censorship law whose twin functions were to impose public censorship and enable private censorship beyond what the state could even arguably Constitutionally impose (and every bit of which except the enablement of private censorship in Section 230 was struck down as exceeding Constitutional limits on public censorship)—makes clear that content neutrality was not only not the point, but the polar opposite of the point of the enactment.

[0] 42 USC § 230(c)(2): “No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be held liable on account of— (A) any action voluntarily taken in good faith to restrict access to or availability of material that the provider or user considers to be obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, excessively violent, harassing, or otherwise objectionable, whether or not such material is constitutionally protected”. If Facebook finds it objectionable for any reason, Facebook is explicitly protected under 230 for blocking it.
While I agree with pretty much none of that, it also entirely misses the point. The problem with housing in Ireland is, very simply, that there is _not enough of it_. This clearly needs to be fixed, whether by prodding the markets or changing the planning laws or direct social housing construction or all of the above. The coalition's approach has been to do ~nothing (the previous FG government did tinker rather timidly with the planning laws, at least, but it fell far short of the sort of action required).

“Some men just want to watch the world burn.”

― Michael Caine
From what I recall, this distinction was the subject of vigorous debate among early economists formulating theories of value, especially among the Austrians. The “textbook” undergraduate explanation is that diversity of productive endowments leads to gains from specialization and trade, but the subjective theory of value perhaps enriches this notion: the “cost” of using up a scarce productive resource may be subjectively determined, which means that two humans who appear to have the same productive endowment nonetheless may have different preferences of what to produce.

Also, your comment about package deals strongly reminds me of stuff I recently read in Thomas Sowell’s *Knowledge and Decisions.
I feel bad typing this because it’s just anecdotal but I do think the people just ten years younger than me seem far incapable of figuring really simple things out on their own. There’s no problem with asking questions but at least have some due diligence done.

I really struggle getting that point across too because they want to be spoon fed the answer (btw these are folks from top 20 CS schools) or complain that nobody is training them.

I guess that’s what being glued to a phone and social media for hours a day does to people.

Again just my opinion from my personal experience.
The flip side is that anyone who wants to become a programmer has a wealth of learning resources available to them that did not exist for earlier generations.

Neither of these problems have happened to me since pip introduced their new dependency resolver (I think sometime during 2020). All dependencies are installed, and packages in the default repo usually have consistent dependency lists.

It's another story for conda, which flat-out refused to install my list of around 10 packages (that seems to stems from the fact that most packages are in conda-forge, and requirements are often inconsistent with the default repo).
