That’s not true at all.

I know someone whose an editor-in-chief at an imprint of one of the major publishing houses. He majored in English as an undergraduate at a major university and has worked in the field as an editor for twenty years.
Yeah, they're both great.
I guess it's hard to care because @Talanaes has been denied a Blue Check since they were introduced.

It was never a real or fair identification system, it was a promo tool for early Twitter to boost celebrity engagement that they should have revamped or retired six or seven years ago.

Edit: What a wonderful time to realize my HN handle is mistyped, lol.
I'd also imagine you'd have a pretty hard time convincing a US court that working with a US government agency is "evil."
Sure, but users don't have to pick. They could choose to recognize their eth on one chain and USDC on the other, just long enough to cash out their USDC for real USD from the forked chain (as long as Circle/Coinbase has liquidity to do so). At that point the user would be free to use a different stable coin if they chose.
I read it a couple of years ago and it's pretty good indeed.
Sort of like this, but with BASIC? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logo_(programming_language)
No, you just misunderstood him. He's saying that energy generation and use should be carbon taxed. If you internalize the carbon externality, fossil fuels will not be cheap.

There are arguments against these, but yours is a poor one.
The premise of the lawsuit seems flawed.

The code of conduct or a motto is not a contract.
The code of conduct generally limits the conduct of the employee, and does not create obligations for the company.
When "Don't be Evil" is in the code of conduct, it only suggest that the employee should not engage in evil behavior, but doesn't preclude the company from doing so, and doesn't implicitly allow all non-evil behavior by the employee.
You are definitely going to be proven right.

I don't really get your point here as you don't have to buy ASICs every X years with PoW consensus. A friend of mine mines with his 3070 in a mining pool and makes a small plus with it. Hell, you can even mine with a 7 year old PC. Will you ever find a block? Probably not, but you're still securing the network and may get lucky. I don't see how this incentivizes centralization any more than PoS. With PoS, you have to be part of the network by spending money on a token while with PoW, you just need an existing PC with some compute power.
Just spend the 2 seconds to change your default new window / tab page to “Blank Page” if it bothers you that much. I set that in the 2000s and they've always honored it since.
Counter example: i tried to get a kitchenless apartment but couldn't get one that wasnt TINY so it just wasn't worth it. But i totaly would get one if i could save some money (to help pay for eating out more) and could re-use that space for other things.
I'd be nice of the judge to censure the lawyers for wasting the court's time too.
Agreed. That's what I did.
While learning jQuery and figuring out how to retrieve elements of the DOM, I googled "how to get head".
It isn't obvious what this comment means. What is the "that" that is centralization? What are the extra steps?
You missed the point of the previous comment. The gist was that the author of the article has no clue about the Roman way of life and cannot be taken seriously.

Is there a valid legal standing to this? I doubt it.
I doubt apartments with kitchens would cease to exist although they would probably cost more than those without
And yet they often had sumptuary laws forbidding the wearing of silk, which was on account of it left very little to the imagination.
Nobody thinks that Mozilla’s remote kill switch for extensions is an error. The reason I accept it is because I don’t want to be personally responsible for every extension I might install. Nobody has time for that. Let someone who does this stuff for a living take care of it.
Neat! I'd missed those.
Minor correction: Ken Kocienda didn't do the Konqueror port. He was working on getting Gecko to build and a teammate got Konqueror working in X11 before Ken even got Gecko to compile.
A few people taking completely stupid decisions is always going to happen. There's also drunk people or elderly people with poor vision who end up in the wrong direction on the highway. Even if it happens every day on a global scale, it's an incredibly small fraction of drivers. A targeted attack fooling current-technology IA could lead hundreds of cars in the wrong direction at the same time in a single place. It's way worse than what you could imagine tricking humans to do. Putting such brittle systems in charge on the road is irresponsible.
> It had to do, especially, with selling search placement, which was something that search engines before Google regularly did. Whether you bought ads on Search or not had no bearing on where you came out in the Search results, and you can doubt that all you like but it was true.

Which, with the slow boil of reducing the yellow background of ads down to next to nothing, then moving them ahead of results, and slowly fading the background to nothing, whittling the little "Ad" chip down to nothing [1], is today exactly what Google is doing.

[1] https://www.webprofits.com.au/blog/google-search-change

> another evil practice which inspired the slogan was: giving preference to your own products in search results.

Which it absolutely does, and did worse (sued in EU over Google shopping results).

I joined in 2010. At no point did I ever drink the koolaid that Google would ever really live up to this vague ideal, but I was, at the time, impressed by how ethical and careful the company seemed to be. That completely changed, little by little, and I lost that trust, or rather, that trust was broken and slowly evaporated. Today, Google is a behemoth that will seemingly stop at nothing to keep that 20% YoY gravy train going. It's getting ridiculous. They're paving over cyberspace with ads and gobbling every profitable thing and potential competitor. They won't be stopping the growth mindset. The self deception at the top is staggering. Google is becoming everything the internet never should have been.
So how does this square with the Speech-to-Song illusion?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speech-to-song_illusion
The US government is prohibited from taking a position on religious questions. The nature of evil is such a question. The government frequently declares that something is "bad", but it is not able to declare that something is "evil".
I just installed 2.95 last night after uninstalling 5.x. 5.x doesn't have [Q] to enqueue within a playlist. I have no idea why anyone would remove such a basic feature... maybe the advent of the "media library" management (at the time a new concept) made them decide to remove it.

I had to install milkdrop separately to WinAmp, but honestly, after reinstalling Windows 98 every 72 hours back in the bad old days, it kinda felt natural. Nostalgic.
I think that folks just like to dabble in domains where you can "be your own expert" or at least "choose your own expert." This is impossible if you need to be a technical expert to understand electrical and acoustic measurements, and have a pile of test equipment. And it becomes utterly demotivating if working harder to get better results only proves that what you're seeking is nonexistent or irrelevant.

It may also be related to why people want to "do the research" and discover things like their own homegrown immunization protocol, rather than just going and getting a vaccine.
although ads clearly do sell search placement, only that those placements are separate and labelled as ads. although over the years the notice that a result is an ad was made less and less obvious. remember when ad results had a yellow background?
What do you mean by "Cardano audits are really late"?
How long does it take to build Chromium with a machine like that?
I'd suggest a slight correction here: You don't need the qualifier of 'big cities'. I live in a big town/small city it happens all the time here too. And when I lived in a small town that had a one way drive around the square, it happened a lot there too.

It's so frequent in fact that the barflies at one local place (that has a beer garden from which you can see a one way road) turned it into a drinking game - wrong way car == take a shot.
There is no case here. There is no specificity to "Don't be evil" as its very subjective.
Ah you're right I was misremembering (read it a while ago) - thanks for the correction.
The question is not if Google committed evil. The question is if the Google fired employees for telling Google it was comitting evil. This does not require any definition of evil nor any judgement on Google doing evil.
Kinda? You still have to wait for the TV to boot.
Better surveillance: put RFID readers in the road that track the RFID tags in the tires. Then ping that against the database of who bought what tires. People won't known what hit them.
> It is pretty great and all, but sometimes it is easier to build your app with a simple vendor-locked tech than a super generic agnostic technology.

That's for sure golden. Until the product is bought over, or there was a merge of companies, or you name it. And then you end up with a pile of products with different vendor-locked log formats, metrics. At that point you'd like to get some standardization. And OpenTelemetry is a perfect candidate for common ground. Thus support of OpenTelemetry becomes a major decision factor when selecting a vendor or OSS solution for your problem, isn't it?

Chanting "Say her name" is freedom of speech.

Breaking and entering into the seat of government [1], building gallows in preparation for hangings [2] and calling for the murder of the Vice President [3] is not.

Fair enough, I'm not very familiar with the details of that case, but my overall points are that 1) it's easy to remove traffic signs (and thoughtless kids probably do it every so often as a dumb joke), 2) this can definitely lead to bad accidents (with human drivers), and 3) the legal system will likely at least consider whether the people who tampered with the traffic signs are culpable for the accidents.
I dunno man.. Web3 is pretty fun.
My beliefs aside for the sake of argument, one could claim the evil all falls to the person devising that contraption and issuing the reward for that decision.
You make a good point. I'm more familiar with "oversocialized professionals" but the world is big and full of people, some of whom take masculinity too far. Hell, I read a Norman Mailer novel last week...
The article mentions that the term “observability” was coined in 1960.
Code Comments Are Obsoleting
If you want to make a statement, just don't use chromium in any form. Use Firefox, even if it's slightly worse for you.
The good news just keeps coming!
Look at any large-scale, peacetime organizational change. It ain't beanbag, even before beong as fraught as abolition.

Those tearing down the Founders (looking at you, 1619 Project) need to have done more than point fingers and cast stones before being regarded seriously.
It seems the code of conduct in this case said employees should raise issues to Google. The claim is that google then fired employees for raising issues around google being evil. It has absolutely zero to do with Google actually doing evil or not doing evil.
"ignorance plus marketing"

I do see what you say - I would say that this is the generally accepted common sense view.

Still, I am skeptic. This means I don't trust what I am told - I only accept as knowledge that which I verify myself.

So here, with food, I get an opportunity to verify what I eat etc - it is anecdotal - but anecdotal is king for me. So, in my anecdotal experience, terrain is at least plausible.

On the other hand, asking me to believe in viruses (that I cannot see) is a bigger ask. I do believe in fungi and bacteria - I can see something of these, but I have never seen a virus.

I am being genuine and honest with you - I really am an (extreme) skeptic. Why should I change my mind and start believing in something I cannot see. I know people lie (often unintentionally) and I know that corporations seek to make profit from people's ignorance - the pharmaceutical industry is no exception. They are all about making money - like every other corporation.

The problem I have is that people are expected to believe corporate information that cannot be verified, over their own personal experience that can be verified.

Do you see my problem? That as far as I can tell, it is pharmaceuticals that would seek to exploit people's ignorance with marketing? No doubt organic food producers are doing the same, but their marketing budget will be tiny in comparison to the heft of big pharma.
> You can't crush your competitors with a $0 product and a compatibility moat that it is your mission to minimize, especially when your main competitor is many times your size.

By definition, Firefox is not a $0 product - it is a $500M product, the product name is called primary search engine placement and it has exactly one customer, that also happens to be its main competitor and archrival.

The very fact that user != customer is where most of Firefox problems stem from (IMO). Turning users into customers is a correct (and only) way for Firefox to become independent and achieve a position from which it can really deliver on its mission.
> Your own description isn't of TVs being ahead in tech, but offering the same tech at a lower price point

I specified consumer TVs. You didn't read what I wrote, and then you decided to nitpick anyway.

Yeah, I heard about that, but evidently it needs more work before it Just Works.
This lawsuit won’t go anywhere. “Don’t be evil” is not a contract, and if it was, they’ll have to convince the court that their definition of evil is the one true definition. This is really just a publicity stunt to get Google to settle to prevent PR damages. It’s highly unlikely that they have any incontrovertible evidence of wrongdoing as defined by law.
x86 code is never actually marked as executable from the CPU's point of view, since that CPU does not know how to execute x86 code. The pages which contain the translated code are, but those are not something the x86 code knows about.
While I was there (about a year later) I can remember it being used generally in meetings to judge if something was ethical. I can remember things being nixed (by engineers) for being too “evil”.

Some of those things would probably be okay today - now that Mr Zuckerberg has moved the goalposts for how creepy a company can allow itself to get - and everyone must follow or risk losing out.
This is a pretty small search space in comparison to the size of gpt-3. I would fully expect that the arithmetic table of 0-100 with numbers between 0-100 is present in sufficient density on the internet for this to be memorized by gpt-3.
Yep. I think for limited resources, micro-py is the wrong approach. That it is interpreted aside; I had a lua-based interpreter crash because the stack/heap in a nested routine (ie lots of nested fn calls) managed to fill up available memory.
> I'm not sufficiently familiar with California employment and contract law to know how much of a leg this case has, but on a quick scan, one of the counts (discrimination due to sexual identity) is dead in motion-to-dismiss phase,

No such count exists in the complaint! There is a component of Count V of that type but Count V can stand without it.

That said, the other bits in Count V are also fairly weak, though the sex/orientation/identity one is the weakest.

> one (slander) might survive if amended,

Not sure why you say that; while obviously the facts require trial the slander/false light charge seems to make all the necessary claims to establish the tort.
IANAL, but isn't / shouldn't the process be the following: Google's lawyers drafted the employment contract and used the word evil. Now it is up to the employees lawyers to argue for an interpretation of the word, and if that interpretation is reasonable, then it stands?

There is a Wikipedia article about something similar: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contra_proferentem
I prefer a pragmatic definition: Music is any remunerative activity involving a bass player.

> The trio say they thought they were behaving in accordance with that principle when they organized Google employees against controversial projects, such as work for U.S. Customs and Border Protection during the Trump administration. The workers circulated a petition calling on Google to publicly commit to not working with CBP.

Plenty of people don't subscribe to the belief that it's evil to detain people illegally entering a country. Try overstaying your tourist visa in another country: you'll be arrested, then deported. Same deal with doing Pentagon contracts, as mentioned later in the article. Not everyone subscribes to the belief that any defense-related work is evil. I seriously doubt that this will even be allowed to get to court.

This lawsuit seems more like activism than a credible legal challenge.
You'd be surprised how many Google employees have a warped view of the company or even that of what a business is suppose to do.

There are some people with the org that would genuinely debate you as to whether making a profit (any kind of profit) is a good or bad thing.
Might Google settle anyway, just to avoid arguing in court, in front of the public, that "don't be evil" never meant anything in the first place?
MensLib is the best known space like that on Reddit probably. It's 6 years old.

> Before Twitter you didn’t have a voice you were afraid to lose.

it depends on where and when

people with no voice are still with no voice, even with Twitter

people that had some kind of voice, still have a voice, probably more.

people with lots of voice power, still have a lot of power

except now people that have gained popularity don't want to lose it to silence potentially dangerous actors, because they are on the same boat, and entities with a lot of resources can have a voice (sometimes very convincing) where they wouldn't have before.

Think about the staggering amount of visibility the Talibans have on platforms like IG, they are influencers now!

Not entirely Twitter's fault, but the Jack Dorseys didn't think about the consequences and here we are.

They did what they are good at: built a platform, made it grow exponentially, lost control of it, but profited.

Not judging the intentions, they could have been the best ever, but the result is that they built something that we have to deal with, whether we like it or not.
Need good data on autoimmune patients who take it. A high risk group in general. How did they fair in aggregate?

I started Hydroxychloroquine about six months before covid for Sjogrens. Stopped after getting and recovering from Covid. Was out of commission for a month. Had a couple of rough nights and about six months of intense clotting. I had to double my blood thinners.

Of course no idea if it would have
been worse off or not.

On autoimmune forums it ranges from very effective with or without side effects to useless.

It was a huge help for my condition, but side effects were to much.

Not having some way to specify copyright, etc. is an oversight on my part. Thanks!
I'm reminded that in the early days, Apple made an effort to personify the platform by referring to it as "Macintosh," not "THE Macintosh," as though one was referring to an individual with a proper name rather than an inanimate object. The early documentation (I still have the absolutely beautiful manual that came with my original 128k Mac) reflects this, with phrases like "learn about Macintosh"; "guided tour of Macintosh," etc.

If I want to make chips, fries, wedges and jackets, the fact that a cucumber has far fewer calories and goes really well in a tuna sandwich is, while true, hardly relevant!
Not the original poster but I think they mean that the point of the law is to approximate morality and have it consistent across society.

If a court could look at a situation and determine that it is evil, then what is the point of determining whether it is legal or not? What if you came to the conclusion that something is illegal but not evil or evil but not legal? You pretty much undermine the construct of law in the first place and the existence of the court itself
Decentralization comes more from the nodes than from the miners.
Everyone shops at a price point, and the existence of a $6000 professional monitor just isn't at all relevant for most people. Consumer monitors are years behind consumer TVs in tech.
