Some cities did defund in their budget, then reversed and refunded.

Some cities backpedalled on their promise to defund and added to the budget instead.

The existence of the latter scenario does not nullify the former.
However, if you install Windows Terminal you will find that Start menu behavior changes in a annoying way that the Terminal developers can’t fix without changes to Windows itself[0].

With Terminal installed, if you search for a directory from the Start menu — hit the Windows key, start typing, press enter — the menu won’t close automatically.

How is "git reset HEAD~" "awkward"? It's not obviously named, but as was noted above, if there was git-uncommit, it would need every option that git-reset has, and so it would just be an alias, without the final argument.

"History is immutable" is generally accepted as describing the contents of commits, not their id's or relative ordering.
No, that was centralized state socialism - it was authoritarian and centralized.

What I'm proposing is more akin to distributed democratic socialism. Our government is still democratically run. You still have independent banks (formed as credit unions) or crowdfunding to start businesses. The only difference is that once a business hires that first worker, then decisions start getting made democratically. And they continue from there. The state isn't running any of the businesses and there's no central planning arm.

To my knowledge, this has never been tried as a whole economic system. But worker cooperatives exist and are functioning just fine in the current system. Ever bought Equal Exchange chocolate? That's a worker cooperative. Heard of Mondragon? 80,000 member worker cooperative that's functioned successfully for decades across multiple verticals in Spain.

What I am proposing is that we do away with the traditional investor relationship and mandate that all businesses must be formed as democratic worker cooperatives funded either by regulated loans or some form of crowd funding.

Add to the fact: nothing prevents them from putting their money where their mouth is and living the life, right now, however which way the communes are envisioned. Hell, even the Amish and Mennonites are still doing their thing.

>It has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not a trans person deserves the simple dignity of being recognized for what they really are (human people), rather than what is convenient for old-fashioned people to see them as

Maybe part of the issue is the way that activists have dishonestly sidestepped any debate over sex/gender by pretending that its "settled science" (it's not) and implying violence to anyone who questions their inane demands.

Being recognized as a "human person" does not entitle you to arbitrarily reengineer norms to your taste. The psychotic desires of a tiny, mentally ill minority (the DSM reclassification was pure politics, transgenderism/body dysmorphia are obviously mental illnesses) should not supercede the rights of the overwhelming majority to feel safe. And whether you wish to acknowledge it or not, a stranger's flopping dick makes the average woman uncomfortable in spaces that have been reserved for them (bathrooms, locker rooms, etc).

We should be offering these people CBT or some other conventional treatment for them to accept themselves as they are, not encouraging them to mutilate themselves with hormones and SRS and forcing society to indulge in their delusions.
For me it's a big win. SV art style is unique and feels like it came from Eric's heart. For me the improvements are clear if compared to SV, but the style is the same. And being able to enjoy the same art style in a somewhat different context is exciting.
Can you give an example of the rent-seeking?

> When someone wants to do something everyone knows is wrong, we don't let them.

Yes. that's called enforcing criminal law, and most people would agree with it. Although, I dunno, maybe not in the past two years, it seems more people are okay with letting criminals go.

EDIT:
If your claim is that we don't put enough people in jail for breaking the law, I agree with you. I don't see the need to regulate businesses per se. For example, many complain about Amazon and Facebook and want to break it up. I can understand why. I sympathize.

However, Mark Zuckerberg ought to be in jail for conducting social experiments on people without their consent, selling our data, etc. WE don't need to regulate the activities of private enterprise and add more regulation. We just need to actually prosecute people who quite obviously have committed criminal activity.

Same with Jeff Bezos, who owns two businesses (Amazon and the Washington Post) that quite obviously form a conflict of interest. We need no new laws to prevent this kind of conduct.
For what it's worth, I ask the same question of any journalistic piece about Amazon warehouses. I expect a good sampling from them, just as I do from anyone touting their anecdata as representative of a whole.
might have something to do with Alphabet’s subsidiaries winning their other subsidiary’s auctions
Yes, but you are liquidating the companies they own. If you consume them, they become much smaller, which means they have less employees, less work, less income, etc.

This is consuming capital for expenditures, which will in a macro view reduce wages in the long term.
You can also just hold power + a volume button until you get the "power off" dialog, which also disables FaceID until the next time you enter your passcode.
Graeber is an anarchist, so definitely not hoping for a Bolshevik Revolution, something he always opposed.

> If I was to judge someone character strictly off their economic status, you’re likely to find on average that the average rich man is a more moral productive member of society than the average poor one.

You didn't give an argument as to why you would believe that. Graeber presumably believes the opposite because the poor suffer needing while the rich refrain from helping despite being able to. It can be considered allowing harm[1], introductory trolley problem stuff. Of course I can't speak for him but based on what he's written elsewhere I think he would agree that it's not possible to be rich and moral while people go starving because he believes people have an obligation to help those in need when they can (i.e. when it is not too harmful to themselves.) If you don't agree with that, then it's likely you differ in the assumptions you have rather than the logic here.

Parajanov's works are also incredible. A lot of his stuff was not "acceptable" in the U(kr)SSR because of their regionalism and stark non-realist aesthetics, but Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors is a fascinating and gorgeous look at traditional Ukrainian folktale and visual culture.

If you like Hard to Be A God, you should check out Aleksei German's other films, especially Khrustalyov, My Car! from 1998, which is nominally a comedy film, but plays much more like a surrealist horror film that riffs endlessly on the Kafkaesque paranoia of Stalinist Russia. It would make a brilliant double feature with Iannucci's Death of Stalin from 2017, which was definitely influenced by German's film.
Isolating the topic kills communities in the long run. People who know each other deeply, even because of a topic, will start to go topic-adjacent, and then off-topic. You either end up having to broaden the scope of the overall community or risk losing folks after a certain period of time.
Did any of your acquaintances do anything after their release in response to the police torturing/brutalising them? Go to the press for example, or sue, raise a complaint, etc.?

Reading between the lines you're saying torture/brutality following arrest for speeding has been the experience of 3 of your friends?

Aside, your combative tone really isn't helping make a useful discussion. Something like "I have no evidence, sorry" would have been far better than attacking people requesting evidence.
There are explanations for why these stories come out about Amazon needing to be unionized that which can put bad actors on either side of those stories.

I'm not anti-union, but I'm amazed that so many people view them as 100% pure agents of good in all cases.
I wonder how much this has to do with first impressions.

Back in the late 90s when I first started experimenting with Linux, the parent's post definitely described my experience. I remember booting up into a text-mode login prompt and running 'startx' and having to do a lot of messing around with manual configuration files. One mistake with an init file could leave your machine un-bootable and you'd have to use a rescue shell to recover. Driver support was a mixed bag for sure.

In current year it's literally the exact opposite experience. I have more issues with installing Windows apps that will make driver changes or add stuff to the registry that causes weird unexpected issues than I have with Linux. Linux is quick and easy to install and tends to "just work" for me once it's up and running.

I'm sure choice of hardware still has something to do with mixed experiences. I did have one bad experience in recent memory with a work-issued laptop and the track-pad not working with Linux. I had to use a personal device while I was employed there since it was a known issue with that particular brand and the fix was an upcoming kernel update. But that seems to be the extreme rare exception for me. Most devices I've installed Linux on have worked perfectly right out of the install and have required me to do zero configuration to make it usable.
1. Start with a problem, not a solution. And validate that you can reach customers who will pay for your solution to solve their problem, before day 1.

2. Don’t pay attention or compare yourself to other startups/potential competition. No good comes of it.

3. Recognize how large a factor luck is. This means preparing for things to go wrong, but also accepting that factors beyond your control can hugely impact the trajectory of your business.
Sanders has profited off the misfortune of the poor? How so?
That could easily be a sign that Amazon's warehouses are simply better run and are better at reporting injuries.

It is unclear whether this is a problem if you're running namespaced ingress-controllers though. This comment [0] in the bug report says:

there's definitely an attack path that gets the ingress-nginx service account token, which has list rights on secrets at a cluster level (so allowing for all secret values to be retrieved).

I can't see how list permissions would allow retrieval of the secret value though. You'd need get permissions for that.

Contrarian just means holding a position the majority doesn't hold. Although reality is not that clearcut as you aptly pointed out. Most investors didn't think Facebook or Tesla were good investments, hence investing in those stocks is a contrarian position.

To use your example, I would consider choosing to not use a smartphone to be a contrarian position while having an iPhone is not.

Comments like yours is why I have a simple but working solution to the discussion. When we ban consumer from buying cars that consume fossil fuels in 2025, we should also ban consumption of energy produced by fossil fuel. No more coal, oil and gas in the energy grid. We also have a full stop in subsidizing fossil fuels in the name of "reserve energy", where governments are paying companies to be ready with fossil fuels when the demand in the energy grid goes beyond supply.

What happens next happens. What ever subsidies my own government need to pay in order to prevent blackouts will have to be paid to any non-fossil fuel alternatives. If batteries is cheapest then use that. If overproduction is cheapest, use that. If nuclear is cheapest, well then that will be that.

Subsidy driven fossil fuels has to stop. If nuclear is cheaper than building lots of wind and solar, then wind and solar has a problem.
Re: 3 ... I find that the CLI ("git add -p") works here when the scale of the changes I've already carried out is fairly small and there are not too many orthogonal changes in the file tree that I want/need to commit separately. If that happens, it's off to magit I go.
It's kinda like saying, oh, another romantic painting, I expected some impressionism or cubism from the dude this time around.

Maybe you're focusing on the style too much, and not enough on other artistic elements. Which is understandable in the preview.

I personally enjoy Stardew Valley, and I am sure I will enjoy the Chocolatier. I think these are video games as an art form; not the ground breaking type which makes the critics drool over it, but something like a Bob Ross kitsch that you want to put into your home to make it cozier.
Paradise Killer, too. I mainly like it for its heavy 80s vapourwave aesthetic and top-notch soundtrack.
That would be a further fascinating twist. I’ve spent a lot of time investigating both systems; in so far as musical harmony is the core metaphor, they both seem to resolve together. But I agree that the eastern system emphasizes diversity more (at least in the classical period). Heraclitus said “out of discord comes the fairest harmony”, which is suggestive how economic competition produces economic harmony.
That didn't seem like the point you were making, what you seemed to imply is that some form of the current system has existed forever.

But lets work with your new point. Saying "all the economic systems we've tried produced inequality" with the implication being there's no point in attempting to devise new ones is rather like saying "all materials we've devised produced some amount of friction". Sure. But some produce a hell of a lot more than others. And it's still worth searching for new materials that produce less friction so that they can be used in applications where friction is a detriment.

Some economic systems produce a lot more inequality and environmental degredation than others. Our current system has produced a lot more than most. And a lot of the proposals on the table would almost certainly produce less than our current system does.
Right, the deception part is implying that the unusual is usual. The news could make lightning strikes seem like a big problem if they wanted to.

"Yet another lightning strike kills couple in Wyoming leaving behind 2 kids as politicians gridlocked on lightning policy."

"Yet another alcohol-related crash kills family of 5 as politicians gridlocked on alcohol policy."

"Yet another <tragic event> happens due to <guns/covid/abortion policy/drug war/etc.> as politicians gridlocked on <agenda> policy."
I'm not narrowing the scope, all of those combined together are at best less than one percent of all the mobile app market.

They are negligible.

I will argue until the day I die: curl | bash is actually more secure than most traditional software delivery mechanisms. Slightly, but meaningfully.

With curl | bash, the URL of the bash script is right there. I can copy it, plug it into my browser, and inspect with ease the shell script that will run. If its on Github or a similar site, I can see in plain language the exact organization who published it (I wouldn't implicitly trust whoever "armosec" is, but I would trust, for example, "kubernetes", "microsoft", or "google" e.g.).

Alternatives?

- For something like this, to generate a report on whether you're affected? Maybe just a copy-paste bit of code? Isn't that the same thing, but less convenient?

- apt-get install something. Who published it? Does apt have security scanning (no lol)? Where's the source code for that package (scattered to the wind no doubt)? Does it have reproducible builds so I can be certain the code I eventually find is what I install (lol no. but bash scripts do!)

- Let's talk about `snap` for a second; Did you know that there's a `snap install aws-cli` package available [1], published by "Amazon Web Services", with a verified checkmark. Sounds great. Except, for years, no one on the actual aws-cli team had any idea where it came from [2]. They didn't authorize it, and they don't maintain it. It turns out, it was probably the result of a hackathon project by one AWS engineer. "Better security practices" for sure!

The only legitimate risk I've heard about 'curl | bash' is that web servers can detect whether the site is being accessed by a browser versus curl, and serve different content. Legit risky, good to educate about; don't curl | bash from sites you don't recognize. But this is a GitHub link!

I would agree that package managers are superior from a security angle, if most package managers had strong security review processes, on both the package content and the publisher. The problem is: they don't. They're all lacking in this regard, from apt to flatpak to the Apple App Store. The most sophisticated is probably the Play Store, but binary command line distribution channels are nowhere close to having reproducible builds, verified Real ID developers, static analysis on distributed binaries, etc. Package managers are literally just "curl | bash" with some steps added. By and large, anyone can publish anything under any name; educating people that they're "safe" is actually a massive disservice.

The only thing I'll say is that all of this has been parroted to death, ever since the 70s, and I am not seeing an improvement anywhere. People love this fuzzy feeling that they are "spreading awareness" and that "we must start somewhere" but historically, I've lived long enough to not see those make any difference so far.

But I really don't want to debate. I came to state anecdotal evidence + opinion. Neither of which is an indisputable fact and I have not claimed otherwise.

They have a kickstarter [0], which they apparently blew past their funding goal on their first day [1]. They also have a github [2] but it doesn't look like anything is published there yet. They mention Q4 2021 release.

Destin is a wonderful person, and I love the vision, but the details are pretty sparse so far so it's hard to judge based on merit. Their website is basically a list of their goals and a link to the video and the kickstarter is the same, ideally it would say everything that was said in the video and more. Hopefully they can flesh out all of their public surface area soon.

I look forward to reviewing this from a technical perspective once they've actually published the code. I would be interested in hearing the reasoning around their choice of technologies: C++, OpenSSL, mobilie-first, etc, and which other technologies they evaluated and compared, Signal, Mastodon, Matrix, Rust, etc.

Honestly I think the legal side (i.e. expanding the 4th amendment's meaning of "effects" to include owned digital assets and metadata) will be the bigger lift. Whether this means suing the government and getting the supreme court to judge on the right side, or the nuclear option of passing another amendment, we need to start down the legal path ASAP since it will take the longest. Like, we could develop 20 technical solutions to this problem of the same caliber as Signal or 4Privacy in the time that it would take to solve the legal side.

If you invoke your Fifth Amendment right not to self-incriminate you can be served with Statutory Immunity and then forced to testify, with contempt charges if you fail to testify.

There are also several different types of voluntary immunity, which is what you're describing. Those can't be compelled because they may not prevent the government from using your testimony against you in other venues, statutory immunity does not.
> Unless you work and sell your labor "at-cost", you are also "profit-seeking".

Well the last time I checked I didn't turn a blind eye to my work helping to start a promote a genocide in Burma so I really don't see your point.

I don't think that profit-seeking ever results in behaviour that is ethical. If I make a decision based on my desire for more money then it is almost always going to be a choice not based on ethical or moral values.

The difference is the scale. If I cut a few corners as a independent contractor then at worst my client gets slightly less value from their money.

If I cut corners as the owner of a chain restaurant then my profit-seeking has an impact on the employees I have and my customers.

If I am a major corporation that has billions of users then my profit-seeking has incredible impact.
> It is more about having a slightly more sophisticated and realistic view of the world than a binary "they are good/bad"

That was not my take on treeman's comment. They didn't say distrust everyone, but that motives are usually far from altruistic and more selfish in nature. That people have selfish reasons for doing what they do is worth recognizing. A corporation offering you something most likely does not have your best interests in mind, but their bottom line.
