Why would there be "legal ramifications" for someone complying with the ordinary DMCA notice and takedown process?

It has been decades. They're still there.

The lack of popularity is for the reason already mentioned. If your YouTube video gets on the first page of Google search results and the exact same video hosted on some other site doesn't, what are content creators going to use?
I completely agree with this, but this has little to do with the comment you're replying to.

Simple dumb code, unless absolutely needed to be "fast and smart", should be the defacto standard. Which is why Go is so good as an enterprise language. Its very design is a standard for maintainability.

The thing is, it’s not just about some general “video service”, people want exactly what YouTube provides just without the specific things that they don’t like. Finding a specific service that does that is nigh impossible.

It is however totally possible to find or create and alternative video platform (this is something that plenty of YouTube creators already do). People just don’t want to make the trade offs that solution requires.

And thus make up a sizeable amount of COVID patients. I see nothing noteworthy here. Having a preexisting condition makes you suffer more when you contract an infectious disease. I'd expect the same things you said could be repeated for influenza, pneumonia, or anything else. For that matter, how much worse do obese patients fare when recovering from a broken leg? Are fractures then a disease of the metabolically dysfunctional, as you put it?
Well we kinda want some people to live in the middle of nowhere, because we want to eat and somewhere isn't where farmland is, apparently.

Also we kinda want to keep territories like Alaska inhabited because geopolitics.

And we kinda want the people living in those places to be able to get their official government documents (driver licenses, court notices, etc).

Then there's this idea of voting by mail, which isn't something that should be a privilege, but that's too complex for our discussion.

To translate one of the reasons for USPS into words you may understand: you know how two-factor authentication requires that second factor? The USPS provides a means for the gov to get that second factor into the hands of the people.

A third party would be a man-in-the-middle.

So consiser USPS a part of the government's 2FA infrastructure and messaging system with SLA and proof of delivery.

That, unlike your company's authentication infrastructure, happens to pay for itself.
> Wouldn't a normalizer destroy the dynamic range of the sound throughout the movie?

Not in itself; the question of "how loud is the soundtrack overall?" is not the same as the question of "what's the difference between the soundtrack at its loudest and the soundtrack at its quietest?". (That second question is about "compression".)

The normalizer will ensure that if you were trying to have explosions that are too loud, what happens instead is that your dialogue will be too quiet. But that's a good thing. Mann thinks that volume should be set at a level appropriate for the dialogue, even if that means suffering hearing loss from exposure to non-dialogue parts of the soundtrack, and Mann is wrong about that. Hulu is doing the correct thing.

You mentioned that you are a teetotaler. This appears relevant to your point in that it assumes that this proposed module, acting as intended, would never prevent you from driving.

mdp2021 points out that the first guideline targets impaired drivers (not drunk drivers) and would, by intention, prevent you from driving if you were tired enough to be impaired.

Interesting that you don't include genetics in your list, maybe it is a waste of time to try changing all those other things and instead we should focus on directing kids to aspire for their natural talents rather than trying to push them into something that doesn't suit them. To do this we will need to change the economy in a way that the market compensate other talents, not only the ones decided by the US coastal elites. We can do it by blocking illegal immigration and banning imports from countries that don't play by the same rules as western countries. Bringing back the power to the working class.
While very much different in terms of the number and financial size of directly-applicable job prospects, American pre-collegiate math and musical training share a very important thing in common -- there is a step-function proficiency gain to be had from trained parents living in the same house as the child.

Yes, primary and secondary curriculum matters, but in the same way a church musician parent will politely nod approval at the elementary school musical show knowing full well that real musical development for children usually happens in the home with parental involvement -- a mechanical engineer or e.g. actuary parent living in a small or under-schooled town will also politely acknowledge the child's remedial math homework assignments, yet know enough to be able to seek out quality instruction for the child, even if it means utilizing community college or other nearby resources.

Given the same family and upbringing, something tells me that Scott would still excel in math as a HS student in today's California, were he there and that age now.

I'd add another reason: Devs need to be able to run stuff locally sometimes.

It's neat having a serverless single page app that is hosted in s3, served through cloudfront, with lambda's that post messages to sqs queues that are read by god knows what else, but what happens when there's a bug? How do you test it? You can throw more cloud at it and give each dev a way to build their own copy of the stack, but that's even more work to manage. Maybe localstack behaves the same, but can you integrate it with your test framework?

I never took a hard "we must never use aws-only services" approach, but having the ability to run something locally was a huge plus. Postgres RDS? Totally fine, you don't need amazon to run postgres. Redshift? Worth the lock-in given the performance. Lambda? Eh, probably not, given that we already have a streamlined way to host a webapp.
I think a large part of the problem is just that it's poorly integrated into the larger curricula[0]. By the time a typical student reaches geometry class, they have incorrectly learned that math consists of memorizing things, pattern matching onto things they've memorized, and making at most minor adjustments. The kind of logical inference and objective-based reasoning that is necessary for a rigorous proof is covered more in writing class than in math. Some of the kids I've seen adjust well to it have dabbled in software and pattern-matched proofs onto that (which has its own pitfalls, but better than nothing). The remainder had parents who taught this kind of thinking from a much younger age.

For those not so lucky, they need to spend probably about a semester un-learning what math is before they can really start.

> (But where does that mass go?)

Spitballing here ... the mass is magnetic, and you shoot it down into a giant borehole that rapidly recaptures the momentum using magnetic regenerative breaking. Of course you need to use all the energy you recaptured (and more) to bring the mass back up to the surface for your next launch ...

Ok, maybe we are starting to get into sci-fi ...
Where did you get 50%? Wikipedia says "Early twin studies [show] 57% and 73%, with the most recent studies [showing] 80%."[1]

> The truth is most likely somewhere between those two.

> but can only serve as a lower bound unless predictor overfitted the study data.

Yes, but the truth is likely somewhere much closer to the upper bound (twin studies) than the lower bound (genome studies).

Genome studies are only good for lower bounds. They're a new methodology that isn't good with complex traits. For example, they can only explain 20-30% of the variability in hair color even though we know that hair color is almost 100% genetic due to the observation that identical twins always have the same hair color. Intelligence is much more complex than hair color, so it's no surprise that this method has failed to explain more than 5%. Further, these studies often rely on weak proxies like educational attainment because of the difficulty of IQ testing at scale, and the studies that do try to IQ test at scale suffer from small sample sizes which impacts the ability to find results due to being underpowered.

Also, IQ becomes more correlated with parents as you age, suggesting childhood environment plays a less important role.

In addition, the jump in correlation from fraternal to identical suggests more role for genetics than merely a few %.

Since the title is a little misleading, here's how the article describes itself.

> Labor productivity—defined as output per labor hour—has grown at a below-average rate since 2005, representing a dramatic reversal of the above-average growth of the late 1990s and early 2000s. The productivity slowdown during these years has left many economic observers wondering why this situation has occurred and what factors may have contributed. To clarify potential sources of the productivity slowdown, this article presents an analysis of labor productivity and its component series—multifactor productivity, contribution of capital intensity, and contribution of labor composition—at both the economy-wide and industry levels, complemented with a survey of the contemporary productivity literature.

Vertical node graphs like Houdini, Nuke or Katana tend to work for "pass the world" , whereas horizontal ones allow for more data specific passing instead.

It's just a difference of approach in what's going from one to the other. Houdini for example switches to horizontal data passing for VOPs.

I find horizontal data graphs easier to reason about at a glance, whereas vertical ones are easier to quickly prototype things.

Horizontal is just more explicit about data flow.

"We require all government agencies to report security vulnerabilities they are aware of to the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) and to undergo regular external audits of their IT systems."

"In the future, development contracts will be regularly commissioned as open source, and the software will be made public as a matter of principle. There will be a right to encryption, and the state must also offer the option of genuine encrypted communication."

Personally I have a hard time to trust anything after heart bleed. A very basic attack that caused havoc. It proved that the quality of open source is nowhere close to the promises of OSS. It also tells that the automatic tests are too simple, if there are any. Fact is that a student in any class about the network stack probably already been targeted about far more complex attacks than heart bleed.

Encryption is mandatory for most things in EU. But the quality is difficult to evaluate.

>GP has a point: consider the limiting case of an extremely long payload on an extremely short centrifuge arm. The payload is basically rotating around its own center of mass already, before release.

But isn't the payload rotating around its own center of mass because the centripetal force acting on the "front" of the payload is not parallel with the centripetal force acting on the "rear" of the payload? As soon as you cease to apply the centripetal force (i.e. release the projectile) you're no longer going to generate any torque.

Imagine the payload being held by ropes on the back and on the front and then both ropes releasing exactly as its center of mass passes through horizontal.
I was just talking about this problem yesterday (only to say that it is a problem. I don’t have any solutions).

I was thinking in the context of a pijul/categorical theory of patches model rather than a CRDT that resolves conflicts deterministically (in the pijul model all merges are successful and well-behaved in that the order of mergin doesn’t matter but your data structure may contain representations of merge conflicts).

Fundamentally, I think the problem is that for a good AST model, you want to be able to handle transformations of the following forms:

e <-> (e)
if(e) {f; g} <- if(e) f -> if(e) {h; f}
a (b c) d <-> a b c d
(a b) (c d) <-> (a b c d)

The second line is meant to ask: how would you merge people independently making the middle-to-left and middle-to-right changes with your CRDT. I would like to point out particularly the changes of nesting depth and the merging and splitting of subsequences.

Let me briefly describe the pijul/CToP model. You start with a simple model of files: each file is a totally ordered set of lines, and a model of patches: a patch is an injection taking the lines of one file to equal lines in another file (i.e. it isn’t changing the contents of the line) and furthermore it is increasing which means the relative order is maintained. New lines are points not in the image of the function and deleted lines are represented by pseudo-lines in the new file with a “deleted” tag. This then forms a category with possible files being the objects and patches the morphisms. You then do some magic to figure out how to add all push outs to the category. Push outs correspond to merges (more formally, the push out of the span B <-f- A -g-> C is an object P with morphisms p: B->P, q: C->P such that the compositions fp and gq are equal and the universal property that for any other object Q and morphisms rs satisfying the same properties there is a unique morphism u: P->Q such that fpu = fr = gs = gqu, which in our case means that the merge is fair in the sense that it hasn’t accidentally resolved a conflict that was ambiguous). The result is a model where files are partially ordered sets of lines and patches are just (strictly) increasing functions. If two lines do not have an order relative to each other, that is the representation of a merge conflict.

I don’t have a good model for how that sort of thinking could extend to ASTs. Possibly an OT-in-CRDT model could cope with Emacs paredit style transformations of the tree better than this. I’m also unconvinced that solving tables would solve ASTs or vice versa. The constraints on tables feel different to me (no nesting but global constraints on the length of each row or column. Maybe allowing irregular tables where some cells are merged makes it harder). And a regular table feels like it could better fit into a set-with-extra-structure model (like total orders for each row and column or something somehow like that).

Anyway, I’ll be curious to see if someone ever comes up with a really good model to this and, if so, how heuristic-heavy it needs to be (either in the merging or the choice of diff representation) to get good results.

The prepaid status of the card was an issue, but when Divvy switched from MC to Visa, they had like 3+ months, when old cards worked, and you got the option to reissue them as Visa ones one by when at your convenience!
Side note: It is very interesting to see how pro-blender everyone is. You know how there is almost always a group of people who will say something bad about an open source project (disclaimer: not judging the people or their potentially legitimate complaints, also I may be part of such groups). With blender, it's hard to see such a group. Maybe I am missing it? Maybe blender is actually doing incredibly well compared to othee projects? Not sure
+1. It is paramount to pivot the personal career capital/skills to align with the industry trends. I have seen the stagnation take root in my own career currently, working in the same company for 6 years, and it indeed becomes exponentially harder to crack the interviews. The rest of the industry is far ahead of the curve compared to my current employer.
Yeah, a bit. Despite that, I still perceive them as a good barrier (and defense) between my personal financial account and random online businesses whom I would very much like to not provide any personal info whatsoever. An example is wanting to buy a LOSSLESS album from Bandcamp, I can use Privacy and I don't even need to give the musician or Bandcamp my real name or actual financial details.
