I don't claim any higher knowledge of Pierce than what came up in passing as a humanities grad, but having some knowledge of the others mentioned, some points:

> When people discuss the connections between language and cognition such as the possible existence of language in nonhuman species, communication in nature, language acquisition, thinking and human language more generally, cognitive scientists and evolutionary anthropologists usually appeal to concepts such as symbol and sign. A couple of decades after Peirce’s semiotics, Saussure invented his own theory of signs that he also called semiotics though unfortunately with little understanding of Peirce’s work. (Both Peirce and Saussure borrowed the name and interest in semiotics from the 17th-century philosopher John Locke; the term derives from the Greek word σημεῖον, or semeion, for ‘sign’, *‘miracle’*, etc.)

I don't think it a coincidence that the rise of linguistics coincides with a decline in cognition that we can all observe today as reaching a sort of critical mass, in which the mention of a thing is gauged to be a judgment of a thing, particularly in social media contexts. The 20th century (and later) insistence upon "scientifying" everything under the sun is downright insidious.

I often think we'd be better off if there were never such an idea in the heads of any of the people who study it.

> A further foundational contribution from Peirce was his doctrine of synechism, the idea that everything in the Universe is connected, that nothing can be understood in isolation, not even people. This is expressed well in statements such as the following from his paper ‘Immortality in the Light of Synechism’ (1893): "Nor must any synechist say: ‘I am altogether myself, and not at all you.’ If you embrace synechism, you must abjure this metaphysics of wickedness. In the first place, your neighbours are, in a measure, yourself, and in far greater measure than, without deep studies in psychology, you would believe. Really, the selfhood you like to attribute to yourself is, for the most part, the vulgarest delusion of vanity."

This is poorly understood by the author of the linked article, it seems, and a perfect example of my previous point. The author of the linked article presumes that by offering a term to describe a thing, Pierce was making a judgment (positive) about it. That is not the case. Synechism was offered by Pierce as a logical framework of sorts, to limit inquiry to certain possible outcomes. Pierce said that he only thought Time, Space, and Scientific Laws were constants in the universe, and that other less pervasive states were able to exist in isolation from each other.

Describing a thing does not denote a judgment of it. Write it on the chalkboard 1,000 times, 21st century....
Your response, ironically, is in the exact same vein of what you criticize. You interpret what I said it in the worst possible, and particularly politically slanted way.

What about my post makes you assume I wasn't talking about the experience of a conservative in a tech firm? Much ink has been spilled on the subject of people of that political orientation not feeling welcome in those workplaces. People who are trans experience this. People who are gay experience this. People who are people of colour experience this. People who are conservative, or Christians experience this. When any of those people push back on this, they are bringing politics into the workplace. James Damore's fifteen minutes of fame were not some strange kind of apolitical performance from his end, but I think we both know that he's not the kind of person you're thinking of, when you are complaining about people expressing a victim mentality.

Seeing yourself as a victim is not limited to any one particular group in this space - but you are incorrectly assuming that only the 'woke' crowd is responsible for it.

What I see is a pretty clear pattern - where when the outgroup feels uncomfortable, we call their grousing 'identity politics', but when our ingroup feels the same way, we call their complaints non-political.
It’s agriculture that is causing the water problem, and desalination is cheap for residential purposes.
There is more to BH than how they acquire companies. They also have a track recored of out performing S&P for decades. I doubt if BH alpha is because of their streamlined acquisition process.

They can be charged criminally, as can their officers and board, but it rarely happens.
I have to assume you just haven't thought very hard about this problem yet, as that is a very trivial reason to give up on a free market. I would also like to point out that the ecosystem that gets you ten apps doing the same thing is the reason you get any apps at all. If people thought they were competing for one or two slots in a rigged marketplace then the incentives to participate go way down, they would take their skills elsewhere.

The music industry might be a good parallel. The record labels thought they were the gatekeepers, but the majority of the music industry is happening outside big record labels now. If you want the big corporate to choose what you listen to, you get boring manufactured trite. If you want innovation, competence and craftsmanship, look anywhere else.
It has a default placeholder pronunciation for unknown symbols. Neither english or my native language have accents in their letters and creating a lookup table for all the unicode material out there might've been considered impractical or performance-hitting for the developers. Personally, I'm okay with that because symbols with long pronunciations create overhead when reading and a few of them make a text practically unintelligible.
Entering the name is not a problem. Searching for it very much will be.
When it comes to state or federal politics, voting with your feet is not really feasible, since many people are not able to move based on political whim. Jobs, family, housing, all tend to create a lot of friction to moving. I didn't like any of the previous presidential administration's policies, yet moving out of the country was not a feasible option.

> but not a lot of surplus industry income that can be taxed to give everyone in the country an extra 200K

Are you aware of how Australia's superannuation system works? Contributions are literally paid from company income. You are saying it would be impossible for Australia to save trillions from surplus income when this has already happened and is the basic design of the scheme!
There’s also the consideration that a good, healthy business doesn’t want to be bought. The opportunity only presents itself if you are willing to massively overpay or if a good business runs into financial issues.

I worked for a Berkshire subsidiary before jumping into tech. First hand, it is zero bullshit that they invest in good management teams and let them run the business. The best run company I’ve ever worked at is one of these - Berkshire got ‘em when they were out of cash and almost about to fold, and they are overwhelmingly successful today with a stable management team with mostly internal succession. Having also worked at some startups that HN absolutely loves, it’s not that different than soaking up VC cash - it’s still outside money, and you still need a great leadership team to get to profitability.

> being a ham could actually give you immediate, real-world benefits to you and your community in working around bad/nonexistent ISPs by building your own infrastructure? This would bring a lot more people into the hobby because those skills allow them to solve actual problems they/their community is facing.

Sadly FCC regulation prohibits hams from relaying messages for non-hams, so you're not allowed to build transmission infrastructure which can be used by the general community outside of licensed operators (though operators can still communicate among themselves during emergency situations to help the community). Perhaps this needs to change; I suppose it keeps ham radio networks focused, but prevents them from gaining mainstream relevance and challenging the Internet and corporate cellular networks.

On the subject of challenging ISPs and cellular networks, how is mesh networking doing these days? I don't think there's any meshnets near where I live though.

I turned on the special, approved Brave ads thing last time I used it because I wanted to support Brave; and they only showed up as little pop ups on the systray and were infinitely more annoying to me than a static banner ad.
Denialist really is a bad term. It's meant to invoke a parallel to holocaust denial, and assumes the correctness of one's own view. I might as well call you a denialist.

It's also begging the question to say your adversaries have been misled; I'm on the opposite side of the fence from you, and I think you're the one who's been misled. So that's a waste of time.

This stuff about how I and other people who think like I do just don't care about the future or other people, that's nonsense. That's just thinking "oh, well, perhaps they haven't been misled, perhaps they're just bad people." Lazy.

The real cause of disagreement is taste about what measurable artifacts a person deems important, how they weigh them, etc.

You could try getting into SDR. RTL-SDR is cheap but receive-only and has pathetic bandwidth (around 2.4 MHz), and more expensive dongles have better bandwidth and/or transmit (with a license). I got bored of 2.4 MHz reception pretty quickly though.

I published an app on the App Store, which did quite well in its niche. Soon, a bunch of very similar apps popped up. One app cloned everything about my app -- even the icon.

But Apple didn't care. They don't give a shit when people clone apps and try to mislead customers by making apps that have almost the same name as another app.

Apple should focus on getting rid of scam apps and blatant rip-offs.

Who cares if there are 100s of horoscope apps on the store? It's not like shelf space is limited. As long as an app doesn't harm or mislead customers, I don't see why Apple should reject it.

I find it amazing that these regulations exist but apartments aren't even required to have AC. I remember spending many a summer in the Bay trying to survive by putting ice cubes in front of my desk fan in the day, under my pillow at night, etc. It was especially bad on days where fires meant that opening the window was bad for health.

When I first arrived, I was shocked to realize that AC was considered a luxury feature in the Bay. I've lived in dwellings in developing countries better capable of managing summer heat than most Bay Area apartments.

And apple calls itself an innovative company. They say no more lightbulb apps forgetting it took Edison 5000 filaments to find the best one.

Naturally if you trust one dev for one job, and not to ruin the app, you will likely trust them for another, category saturation be damned. I don't see much benefit for users when the manufacturer dictates what developers are not to build for users based on some archaic first in best dressed system from 2008.
Why? Do you feel likely to be tricked into downloading this app if it were distributed on the App Store?

>No one is advocating that Cloudflare should be the moral arbiter tasked with policing all sites on the internet,

Except that is what I see both on and off the internet. That is why I raised the question. Especially where there is a distinction between Hosting provider and transit provider. It would be more appreciated in this case to be writing to the site's host and not Cloudflare. ( Unless it is hosted on Cloudflare workers then we would have argue it differently ) Or as OP have pointed to the different about banks. It is all about different layer of stack, which people often seems to lump it all together.

If you like it, is it unreasonable to assume that you would be willing pay for it without being taxed?

And how is it more moral to take someone's money to subsidize services they have no use for (say, parks) than to force a park user to pay for its use?

> But are you telling me for-profit corporations are going to create a society with all these things for everyone?

There are private museums, libraries, schools, healthcare, parks. They shouldn't be built for "everyone", they should be built just for the folks who would use them (and pay the economic price).

If stuff from that list can't be done without government "investment" and backstopping, it shouldn't be done at all.
We're not talking about national defense budget - it's very easy to see that government has no business getting involved with anything from your list.
FireFox has "recommended" extensions that meet their "standards for security and performance." Looking through the current "crapstore" for quality is a huge PITA. Apple could easily make their walled garden actually good by grading the apps in their store.

The Covid-19 Hotel Scam That Took NYC for $400k
Wells are 100% determined by local conditions. In the pacific northwest you will hit water very quickly and find lots of it. Arsenic and other contaminants are an issue, but if you follow the health codes most people find perfectly good water strait out of the ground without treatment or even filtration. Whether your water is hard or soft depends on the nature of the rock your are drilling though. Most off grid houses these days opt for large holding tanks and a relatively small pump. There are some great well pumps specifically designed to run directly off of solar. No batteries or inverters required.

I can recommend these pumps. I know of a couple that have been running for 10+ years off of solar without any issues.

> Apple could charge much less, benefiting consumers, be just as effective (they don't need trillions of dollars of assets)

If we ignored 2nd order effects yes. In practice, no. This is the only way for other phone companies to realise that their products are bad and that they need to improve. We can observe that when Apple came in to the market and started selling their phone at absurd volumes and profit margins, the other phone OEMs moved like lightening to catch up. The market for mobiles completely reformed in a few years.

If Apple had charged razor thin margins, it would have been much less obvious how much value was being created, and Apple wouldn't have had the cash reserves to reshape the market as fundamentally as it did. Consumers would have been much worse off. Since nearly nobody is forced to buy an iPhone, all that money that Apple has represents at least value created in the past and that value probably wouldn't exist had Apple been forced to go slowly and work with slim profits.

One of the fun observations of economics is while capitalists would like very high rates of profit they can't actually achieve them long term in a relatively free market. Other capitalists will figure out what is valuable, muscle in and bring the rates of profit down to a return consistent with the risk.
Listen, you keep to arguing that Germans can decide that EU law is sometimes insane - they are overriding so their law have more power. Pretty clear. Literal law can be and usually is missinterpreted.

Also, what Poland just do was: in 2005 our juries decided superiority of our Constitution and we only continue what was said earlier Period. No some imaginary #polexit or "dubious claims" as you judge yourself. Or maybe you are brainwashed that way or wishes this to be true.

And polish jury that do exactly this in 2005 is in EU jury institution now. An that is already centuries old problem in Poland: our people, usually for personal gain, decide to harm Poland. Check history, if you like.

And crisis ? Mate, "stop drinking Cool-Aid" or how they say that things. EU trying to harm few member countries and that is a problem. Not sticking to country sovereignty. And if EU want federation and others do not want this (yet) then that also not a crisis but putting assholes into place. Becouse they do not work for common all european member states good.

Funny note: you yourself ACKed that EU sometimes make INSANE law, full agree on that :) But why only Germans and nobody else is qualified to state obvious insanity of EU (law in that case) ? You somehow belive in well-disproved Germans superiority ? :) Looks like kinda lack in humor abilities is rather a problem then positive trait :)
