One of you said a few comments up: "then the question arises: what is missing?"

And i just wanna pour us all a cup of tea and sit with that.

It reminds me of the song "anything you can do, i can do better, i can do anything better than you - No you cant! Yes i can!.."

The issue is- tell me what it cant do. Explain to me what the chinese room is not understanding. Whatever model you use to translate the missing functions can then be "encoded".

Id like to think my cpu has a brain and it goes off dreaming with the idle threads- but im also quite convinced that every single thread that runs machine code is a non-concious direct representation of the mental model i encoded into its functions.
>Is Joe Biden really a 'leftist'? I think most in the US would describe him as a liberal, and most self-identified leftists would describe him with profanity.

In American political discourse, any member of the Democratic Party is considered a "leftist' regardless of their beliefs or policies. You're correct that actual self-identified leftists (at least the ones I'm aware of) hate him. But remember that 'leftist' is used more often than not as a pejorative and dog-whistle for "radical Marxist" in the US than a descriptive political label outside of leftist circles.
Yep, I had a direct email from Amazon this morning advising me that I could no longer use my Visa Credit card for orders.

"Starting 19 January, 2022, we will unfortunately no longer accept Visa credit cards issued in the UK, due to the high fees Visa charges for processing credit card transactions. You can still use debit cards (including Visa debit cards) and non-Visa credit cards like Mastercard, Amex, and Eurocard to make purchases. Please update your default payment method now, or add one of these new, eligible payment methods if you do not have one."

> Publishers tend to think of this as “retention.”

My understanding was that "retention" used to be simply a measure of how many unique users/customers kept using your product. With some implicit (maybe too optimistic) understanding that they stayed because they wanted to.

In classic "if your measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a measure" tradition, "retention" today seems to be about keeping as many recurring visitors as possible, no matter how and no matter the reason why they are staying.

This just shows how Microsoft's internal structure harms users.

PMs get paid based on idiot stats and the more the Internet Explorer Edge team can increase IE Edge usage the more they get in bonus payments. So they force it on their Windows users down their throat, completely disregarding how awful of an experience this is as long as they get a better pay check.

The same happened with Teams. The Teams PM managed to get Teams integrated into Windows 11 in order to increase its usage stats for a better bonus.

Honestly, I don't know why so many people, especially developers still use Windows. I am 100% convinced that developers on Windows who are still using Windows as their main OS for software dev have not tried another OS for at least a few months to give it a proper try. It's unimaginable how an intelligent human being would otherwise like Windows. There is nothing to like about it. Windows 11 was a massive downgrade from 10 as well.

"Sold out" is a real problem. More people than we want to admit see corruption coupled with big media as a enemy, not a thing to be trusted. Many ordinary people flat out do not know when to trust, so they don't.

They then seek others and continue to have conversations, and they find others lacking trust resonates and that opens the door for a lot of BS normally and easily seen.

Just an example of the difficulty we now face:

Hiding YouTube dislikes will, among other effects, serve to help big corporate media compete against new media.

Hiding the dislikes also breeds more mistrust. This is unavoidable no matter how reasoned the move is.

Public trust in corporate media is really low, and the younger a potential user of that media is the worse those metrics are.

Had that same media held more closely to journalism, rather than access journalism, which is essentially a sales job, the trust problems we struggle with today would not have grown into the chronic problem it all is today.

You identified politicians committing similar abuse of the public trust.

Look at Russiagate. Basically, it flat out did not happen the way many believed it did. Back when that started, many and myself included went to the original documents, saw speculation and in some cases saw it helpfully color coded, and turned on the news only to see all that elevated to fact.

That scared me frankly.

What can one conclude?

I do not see how judging others helps right now. Not saying anyone did here, but I am saying that is happening a lot and when it happens the door for good info to find it's way home gets closed. Advocates render their efforts far less potent.

Secondly, the lack of trust really can't be assigned to people. We have a lot of "they are stupid" type discussion, judgement and rationalization going on and very little of that is helpful.

ie: 70 million people voted for...

The people who had a far better position of authority and trust denigrated that themselves, and for dollars and ratings.

All that is a real mess!

How can authorities, who have abused public trust be counted on to fact check and improve on misinformation without amplifying the already chronic trust problems they created?

In a more basic sense, how can we improve on public trust at all?

I am not sure how that is done quickly.

Longer term, we need media that makes informing people a priority. And doing that likely means a move away from the current AD and access based media we have now.

Given how things are right now, the more important thing is to avoid judgement of others and encourage more and better information exchange. We will not know what reaches people, until it does.

Once it does, we need those people to continue seeking better information so we see more people making better choices more of the time.

Judging at the current state of Internet, anti-trust is not just dead, but cremated, and thrown into the sea.
I would say there is no fast way to do this. If you specifically want to learn Kubernetes on GCP as opposed to DevOps generally, there are many things to learn.

Sure, you can get something basic running very quickly but if you are talking about production systems, "ramp up"? then there are many things to learn, understand and avoid and this takes an amount of time.

For an example, as a very experienced Dev and Ops person, after 18 months of Kubernetes, I am still learning things that I should have ideally done from day 1 and probably only avoided problems because I am not using it with very high traffic.

You can read lists and follow tutorials but engineering is trade-offs and even in the world of nice tooling, there are still many decisions to make and don't end up in a position where, for example, you cannot upgrade an ingress without the system becoming unavailable because you didn't consider this early on.

Don't get me wrong, it is worth learning but it is not fast.
In the 1960's smoking was already considered very bad for your health, in fact a large 1951 study amongst the doctors themselves pretty much proved that, but that didn't stop lobbying and advertising by the Tobacco companies, including the use of actors posing as doctors from continuing to push the false narrative and if not for some pretty heavy legal restrictions they would still be doing this today (and they still do, in some countries).

And real doctors promoting smoking goes back much further than that, all the way to the early 1900's.

It's that kind of activity that undermines the authority the profession, but it's the wrong conclusion to make that if doctors were wrong about smoking they are also wrong about everything else. Usually they are not.

I've been semi-interested in Deno since it was announced and followed some discussions but I've never considered moving from Node to Deno.

It depends on how you look at it. If I'm running Debian, I have decided to trust their sources and their process, regardless of how their software is being delivered. That process and the implementation of it is the basis for my trust. If I'm really paranoid, I can even attempt to reproduce the builds to verify that nothing has changed between the source and the binary blob.[1]

For npm, trust isn't really a concept. The repository is just a channel used to publish packages, they don't accept any responsibility for anything published, which is fair considering they allow anyone to publish for free. There are no mechanisms in npm that can help you verify the origin of a package and point to a publicly available source code repository or that ensures that the account owner was actually the person who published the package.

Security and trust is very hard, but my point here is that npm does nothing to facilitate either, making it very difficult for the average developer to be aware of any issues. The one tool you get with npm is...not really working the way it was supposed to.[2]

Weirdly enough this sounds like a loophole.

I can already see some companies trying to bullshit their way through an investigation: "Oh sure, we don't provide online cancellation, because our way to cancel is even easier than online:" *presents a way to cancel that is in practice more difficult than online*.

I think either mandating that cancelling must be possible using the same workflow as subscription or more clearly defining what "easy" means would be important.

Don't use the word "proof". That's a word that's only appropriate in deductive disciplines like mathematics.

Also let's accurately represent what the article is saying:

"Again and again, more people are surviving (or avoiding complications) when they get the drug. It’s a pattern strong enough to common-sensically notice. But there isn’t an undeniable, unbreachable fortress of evidence."

This to me reads consistent with "ivermectin has a reasonably good chance of working a little bit but it isn't conclusive.", which is in contrast to your statement that thinking ivermectin works is equal to quackery.

Personally I think it's either a very small effect or no effect at all, but I don't think the quackery designation fits for people who simply believe that there's some small benefit there (although I do think that label fits for those that think it can replace vaccines)

Investor Steve Jurvetson calls it Rose's Law, after Geordie Rose, founder of D-Wave Systems:

https://www.flickr.com/photos/jurvetson/50399541811

> We first invested in 2003, and Geordie predicted that he would be able to demonstrate a two-bit quantum computer within 6 months. There was a certain precision to his predictions. With one bit under his belt, and a second coming, he went on to suggest that the number of qubits in a scalable quantum computing architecture should double every year. It sounded a lot like Gordon Moore’s prediction back in 1965, when he extrapolated from just five data points on a log-scale (his original plot is below).

> So I called it “Rose’s Law” and that seemed to amuse him.
Well, to each their own. I never have to restart Emacs. The only time I restart SLIME is when I do something I shouldn't, like redefine a struct or something. I'm sure I could avoid restarting SLIME, too---I just never bothered to learn if there is a way.

BTW, all software that changes will have a bug from time to time, but Emacs and things related to Common Lisp are like at the very bottom of the trouble-frequency charts. I can't think of any software that I use regularly that gives me fewer problems. For the record I never encountered a bug in either (which doesn't mean they don't exist).

Unfortunately I doubt they lose very much at all based on a move like this. To sophisticated users this is a huge red-flag, but I would imagine a vast majority of computer users barely know what browser they use.

Probably they use edge by default until they're cajoled into installing Chrome as their default browser by their google services, and then they're confused why certain things from chrome don't work when they've been led to a website from the search bar.

That's an absolutely atrocious result from a UX point of view. And it really makes you wonder about the incentive structures in the industry to contemplate the collective frustration suffered by hundreds of millions or billions of users just so some PO's can get a raise for hitting their KPI targets this or that quarter.
Isn't this just going to teach people not to use their crummy search box, if it opens things in the browser that they don't want to use?
Tool tackling rising drink spiking cases
I have slowly come to the conclusion that maybe we grew up a bit too fast with respect to media and social media in particular. In the past change to society came slow and we could internalize and stabilize it before the next round of changes appeared.

Now the changes are coming so fast and are so drastic that we as society - including our legal system - have no way of keeping up with it. Technology routinely moves from one phase to the next before the legal framework has caught up with it. This translates into effectively operating without a legal framework for a very important chunk of society.

That's dangerous territory. I don't have any solutions and I'm sure that there are plenty of people that disagree with me but I've gone from a technophile to being very skeptical about the degree to which I allow tech into my life. Familiarity breeds contempt, or something to that effect.
