> Fair, but hardly relevant in a western context— the push is to close coal-fired power plants in favour of gas and nuclear/solar/wind. No one's talking about a wood-fired power plant, much less pitching it as renewable.

But in the context of particulate pollution (at least in the west) the primary issue is not power plants, but cars and local heatings (including fireplaces).

A lot of my comfort with the old way of growing crops comes from the time it took to grow the crop, and see it change slowly over time. The other part of it was that these new human prompted crops were open for people to use, and once you got the grain from the farmer, nothing stops you from planting it yourself.

Also, when we discuss food scarcity, why do we insist that technology will save us? It wont, the food scarcity problem is an socio-architectural and political problem more than a technological problem.
I consider LinkedIn full of crap and marketing stuff.
I hate the newsfeed and all the fake stuff that people post there. Messages are bloated with random recruiters, search is a pain and the algorithm is totally unclear.

Indeed or similar are so basic that if you're lucky you will get an email reply from the company. Is less noisy than LinkedIn.

I hope one day the process will be simple and without recruiters in the middle. Nothing against them, but are mostly 0 technical and you have to take calls where they read you a company presentation but they don't know nothing really about the company and nothing about you. So what is their utility?

I prefer to speak directly with the company. And I don't like unwanted calls, and I don't like being ghosted (especially if I invested more than 20 mins on your company).

Given all these discussions about drug laced paper makes you wonder if a system of shuffling books could be employed. Given the price of media mail, it seems like prisons could just do regular swaps so that the books always came from someone else's collection. Ideally, you'd get a tragedy of the commons where all the books stopped being drugs because no one was getting back what they put into it.
I'm also surprised there isn't a stronger protection against litigants effectively choosing their judges. I remember reading about a system that Bulgaria(?) implemented for randomly assigning cases to judges, to avoid corruption, and how it had a flaw that let administrators make multiple requests to the system for the same case, until they got the judge they wanted.
It really isnt, people in prison, or people all together will always find novel ways to communicate, and on this case use books, yet the net benefit of them having access to literature is itself good on a whole other level vs the smaller drawbacks which happen from some of them being cuts, this ofc is without getting into the core fundamental that prison is supposed to be there as both a chance of rehab and as a place to separate them from society temporarily let alone this just being inhumane treatment

> So maybe Google should stop feeding this affiliate spam loop and try to create algorithms that try to actually understand which information is based on personal experiences and not created by financial interest

As you say, this is harder to do well than it sounds. There are definitely a lot of hobbyist types who review things and make a side (or even major) income from affiliate sales. With human judgment, it's quite easy to differentiate the honest hobbyist from the spam sites. I fear that any automated attempt to punish the spam sites would end up hurting the hobbyists more.

> It's E2EE if you select private chat with someone.
And its not E2EE if you fail to select private chat.

What this means is that any conversations where you do select E2EE are the ones the "authorities" will take interest in, even if only to the extent of metadata.

That's the fundamental problem with E2EE-by-exception, rather than by default. It calls attention to specific data, even if its not cleartext, rather than obscuring everything.
The obsession with a dead horrible person on the internet is frankly ridiculous. People seem to be unable to not keep talking about him and whoever he ever talked to.

I can definitely see her as that specific type of insecure person who chooses someone like that because they feel they deserve the punishment. It reminds me a little of Nastasya Filippovna, from the Idiot:

> No, no; we'd better say good-bye and part friends. I am a bit of a dreamer myself, and I used to dream of you once. Very often during those five years down at his estate I used to dream and think, and I always imagined just such a good, honest, foolish fellow as you, one who should come and say to me: 'You are an innocent woman, Nastasia Philipovna, and I adore you.' I dreamt of you often. I used to think so much down there that I nearly went mad; and then this fellow here would come down. He would stay a couple of months out of the twelve, and disgrace and insult and deprave me, and then go; so that I longed to drown myself in the pond a thousand times over; but I did not dare do it.
Most of the list is daily affirmations, not "a daily schedule". Affirmations are part of my mourning routine as well. I fail to see what's so news-worthy about this.

Event Sourcing can be as consistent as any other data source. For a hotel booking company, I'd have each hotel be a unique aggregate stream, and with expected version assertion, a ReserveRoom Command for a room would only succeed if the latest state had an opening for that room. As soon as someone successfully reserves a room, all further reserve commands fail until another event frees up the room. The expected version assertion on writes guarantees this.

I've always seen this as a weird argument. Are people just opening and quitting their IDE/editors constantly all day?

So what if it takes 30 seconds to start if it's done once or twice a day (or once a week or less in my case). What the heck kind of environment are people working in or mindset are people in when they can't tolerate 8 seconds for their IDE to open? (And then use that as an argument why the IDE is inferior.)

Unproven claim
What do Chromebooks use?
The article is pretty clear about all this. Companies make money from this, so it’s done.
Guards smuggle in most of the contraband, like cell phones, so banning books is like trying to hold back a flood with a bucket.

Taken to its logical conclusion, private companies are making money hand over fist with private prisons, from the amount taxpayers pay to house inmates, and from modern day slave labor of prison “jobs” making products. Why not ensure you’ve got a recidivist population of that labor by taking away any avenue for someone to escape the cycle.

Truly evil.
I use Fork for picking apart which lines I want to commit. It's very cumbersome to commit only specific files and lines using the terminal.

I use the terminal for everything else. I would never trust a GUI to do a rebase, not even sure if it's possible with Fork because I've never tried.
I did the same kind of thing in France, and most inmate found a way to smuggle a cell phone. If it's also the case in the US (which I'd be surprised if not) that'd mean that a rule against steganography in book is mostly here for legacy reasons.

You clearly have not been overseas. NY subways are possibly the filthiest, Ill-running subway system in the world. Frequent delays, crime, the stench, the cost; every single aspect of it is no match for say Tokyo subway or Prague metro.

I could be wrong, but I don't think storj is "crypto"/web3. It's decentralized and encrypted, but it's not like files are being stored on a blockchain. (I think they did to an ICO way back in the day, but I don't think that has any bearing on current Storj).

Illinois budget problems are due primarily to pension promises made decades ago. The current state government is reasonably well run, for the most part.

If you look at the 2020 Census data, the Chicago metro area grew slightly while the rural areas and small towns lost population. The state saw a growth in high earners that pay lots of taxes, and a loss in lower income folks that pay relatively low taxes.

Since you mention politics: Illinois will send 1 fewer person to the US Congress next year. Currently, there are 13 Democrats and 5 Republicans from Illinois. After the elections next year, there are almost certainly going to be 14 Democrats and 3 Republicans. Knowing that might help understand some of the criticism…
I'm interested in this as well.

I dont follow French stuff much anymore (am in China), but I ve noticed more racial separatism debate in France (like should we do like the US and start defining races in the seemingly positive intention to protect "weak" races or should we continue saying humans are not split in races but are just a messy gradient of weather-dependent attributes losing the ability to target policies at people based on those attributes)
This is why i don't buy the "germany is big on privacy" rhetoric.Not having google street view doesn't mean you have "privacy". Not to mention known links between BND and US agencies, de facto acting as a proxy for them in Europe.

Some of the people may be more sympathetic towards privacy-first tools than the european average, but that doesn't mean the government/leadership is.

Quad9 was the most interesting free DNS service out there, better than google/CF imo.And i'm not saying this as an "anti-german" talking-point,but there are actually very few countries were privacy was pushed as a principle in institutions, see Nordic countries or even to an extreme: CH(where if i recall correctly you cannot record someone even in public w/o their permission). However this smells like something that is not germany-specific but colluded across countries & big corporations: keep cracking down on piracy(even though it's basically a fact that these P2P methods of sharing copyrighted content actually made Sony/Hollywood/etc more money than not)

Wow, that is so thin it is transparent. If this is the sort of 'proof' that we are going to find then I am glad you posted the ref here so that I could add yet another kook to the list of those whose privacy/security rantings and books I can ignore. The biggest danger to long-term privacy projects is not the risk of taking advantage of an opportune partnership with a government agency when incentives align, it is conspiracy nutjobs poisoning the well with their paranoia and delusions.
Do you have any examples of dirtbag leftists losing their blue check marks due to political ideology or some such?
so does this mean that (for example) the olympics can require quad9 to stop resolving youtube because someone uploads a video to youtube that is a copyright infringement? what stops a malicious actor from claiming copyright infringement and causing sites like youtube, netflix, and hulu to be taken offline entirely while it's worked out?
I guess what I'm trying to say here is that decentralization and cryptography obviously predate all this blockchain nonsense and we shouldn't let the crypto hucksters try to "own" those terms.
Realistically, if you want to get away with committing crimes, the best way to do that is to also not commit crimes.

"I make this flight 15 times a year for philanthropic reasons, sometimes even with famous people" is a much better cover for sex trafficking than anything else I can think of.

> Since when was a single digit of 3% (and declining) a 'sizeable share' of the market?

That site is counting mobile browsers too, which eat up a lot of market share. It's 3.9% (so more like 4% than 3%) counting mobile, and 7.9% if you don't. Considering the number of web users, that's absolutely a sizeable share. It represents hundreds of millions of people.

And that would have been a reasonable statement to make.

Even this is a lousy excuse. Banning/raising prices of books for everyone just because authorities failed to do their work is regressive and simply lazy. A better approach is to simply detect when these ciphered messages occur and react appropriately.

Note that only allowing certain vendors is no fail safe either. A criminal can set work with a store which sells through amazon making sure that the “correct” copy gets sent to the prisoner, the postage can be forged to look like an approved vendor, a prison guard can be bribed etc.

If there is a will to send a ciphered message to a prisoner, then there are means. Making life miserable for everyone else is not how you prevent this.

> Without them, we’d basically be left with Wikipedia as the only popular entity on the internet outside of corporate control.

Wikipedia is absolutely not "outside of corporate control". It is trivially astroturfed to advance special interests.

> All of these projects are more properly grouped with government funding in other spheres, such as the BBC or PBS in media

Both BBC and PBS routinely publish outright disinformation to advance the special interests of their corporate/government clients, including the intelligence community. For example, look at PBS Frontline's ridiculous puff piece for the violent extremist group HTS last year.

Reproducible builds are also easily circumvented by selectively deploying backdoors and other malware, based on IP or other fingerprints.

> MTDH is important for most major human cancers, not important for normal cells, and it can be eliminated with no obvious side effects

I'm not fully buying that.

If you look at "Function" on Wikipedia, it seems to have some important roles, including angiogenesis (which is still important outside of cancer). It's not like evolution would select for something that is useless outside of helping cancer.

I'd be curious what the side effects are in humans. How can it be claimed that it can be eliminated with "no obvious side effects" when they are still years away from human trials?

Microsoft’s “cloud business” is not at all comparable to AWS or GCP. It includes all manner of other product that can’t be reasonably classified as cloud compute. AWS remains significantly larger than either azure or GCP when measured by either revenue or raw compute.

Twitter's ad targeting is atrocious and they're just throwing money away. My experience is that the ads are either random national brands, semi-spam as-seen-on-TV-quality stuff, or wildly mistargeted things. E.g. Twitter keeps showing me ads targeted to an oncologist, which is bizarre. Or they are for things on the opposite side of the country from me. My interests are fairly straightforward and Google shows me well-targeted ads, but Twitter's targeting is just a disaster. Before moving to a completely new business model, Twitter should at least try some decent ad targeting.
Not surprising; he likely knew it wasn't transitory the whole time. But if he'd admitted it was permanent from the beginning, news outlets would have called it permanent, firms would have raised prices (more and sooner), and there would have been an even sharper upward spiral.

So instead he downplayed it as transitory for as long as possible, in an attempt to minimize the actual inflation trend.

Yep, the courts side with law enforcement. The whole 'truth comes out in a fair fight' is completely undermined by this. The system protects itself above all else.

I was involved with a case that sounds similar - the judges don't care about your rights and blatantly missapply the law. Also, magistrates are also complete BS, and don't even know basic legal stuff. I had one think I called him prejudice when requesting a case be dismissed with prejudice... Complaints do nothing. There's no real oversight, leading to a completely incompetent system.

The US really seems like its standing alone in having a constitution that can stand up to the onslaught from covid hysterics. I know the popular opinion here is that's a bad thing, but it's the same reason (possibly) that all the fears about Trump and the bad that a populist strongman could do were not realized. Overall, strong protection of freedom is a good thing. People still have the right to react in whatever way they want, just not project their fear on others, which is exactly where a free society should be.
