So to paraphrase, "Printing money is inflationary, which I believe is bad, and I believe the only way to rectify that is through taxation (violence)." That means you are the one who is proposing violence, not the commenter suggesting that we print money. They never said anything about taxation.
UbuWeb has also collected interviews and other audio gems about/featuring McLuhan, including two tracks from the late 1960s Columbia Records' LP "The Medium is the Massage": https://www.ubu.com/sound/mcluhan.html

And there's also a 1999 documentary film about McLuhan entitled "Out of Orbit: The Life and Times of Marshall McLuhan": https://ubu.com/film/mcluhan.html

Years ago, I would spend hours browsing UbuWeb. What a treasure trove! It also pays to point out that while the site was launched in 1996 (by artist-poet Kenneth Goldsmith), its UI has remained more or less the same since about 2005.
Maybe a more interesting question: How does this compare to other US cities, and what do those cities do differently?
I understand why gorhill doesn’t want to accept donations. I’ve seen him post on Hacker News every now and again so I would like to suggest that he encourage users of uBlock and uMatrix to make a donation to a favoured charity similar to how Bram Molenaar encourages Vim users to donate to the ICCF in Uganda¹. I usually make a few donation around this time of year to FOSS projects and other valuable services such as archive.org, Wikipedia, FSF, EFF, etc.

I think that's a pretty good analogy. I'll add a few other details to color the picture.

DAOs can also be built to support fund disbursal through a m-of-n multisig - ie, a certain number of members have to vote on a transaction.

It's also possible to do things like create NFTs and setup recurring revenue from them to go back to the DAO which distributes them to their members.

Side note - in WY, DAOs have some degree of legal standing now (IANAL): https://www.wyoleg.gov/Legislation/2021/SF0038

> That only works if the attacker doesn't know the guard node is you.

That's not how Tor nodes work. Once you setup a guard node (and it got enough reputation) you won't be the only person using the guard node. Also de-anonymization attacks require you to know the traffic coming to the guard node (and if you run a trustworthy one yourself and you're not dealing with a global passive adversary then there's no way the attacker will be able to see the incoming traffic to the guard node).

SEEKING FREELANCER | Boise| Remote | US Time Zone

Hello, I am looking for someone with react native and chart library expertise (such as Victory - https://formidable.com/open-source/victory/) to create a real-time polar chart with X, Y and Z axis that would represent pitch, yaw and roll.

The chart would show the current value of pitch, roll and yaw (i.e. real-time data point need to be displayed only and no historical data plot). The chart should be performant for real-time tracking (i.e., around 50-100 data points per second). Also, the range of the X, Y, Z axis should be adjusted so that it is easier to see these 3 values when there is a movement. (please message me if you have questions on the last statement).

Thank you for looking into this project.

I have seen that quite often (green arrow after red for straight lanes) and had assumed that was pretty common, but I don't really know for sure.

Regarding collisions due to people running red lights: at least when waiting to turn left chances are very good that you will see the oncoming vehicle since you're already pointed towards them.

That seems much better than being first in line at an intersection when the light turns green; in that case anyone running the light may well be coming from the side. I lived in Dallas for a few years and after a few near misses I learned to always look before proceeding after the light turns green.
I have to imagine that the vast majority of the CI time is spent rendering HTML and executing javascript on a wide variety of hardware and software combinations, and has nothing to do with compiling. Even the simplest possible support matrix would look like this:

MacOSX

===> Monterray, Big Sur, Catalina

===> x86, Aarch64

Windows

===> 10, 11

===> x64, Aarch64

===> Intel CPU $(flavors), AMD CPU $(flavors)

===> Nvidia GPU $(flavors), AMD GPU $(flavors), Intel GPU $(flavors)

And that's excluding Linux where the combinations get even crazier

Look at every time a huge password list leaks. I had access to a several million entry user table at the company I worked at in the early 2000s and the #1 pass was "trustno1" and the #2 was "12345678".

Looking back, I have no idea why we stored the passwords in plaintext and I assume it stayed that way until the code was phased out in 2009. This app was used by some of the largest corps in the world, including Microsoft, and was live on the web.

That's not how Tor nodes work. Once you setup a guard node (and it got enough reputation) you will NOT be the only person using it.
Unpopular locally. The Seattle area has quite a few and people adapted pretty well to it, but the few in SF are stop-sign controlled as well, which makes them prettification projects.
No wonder this kind of stuff happens when you trust some magic institutions with your data/security...only a "trust-less" system can be trusted.

Worked at AWS Route53, we do have record propagation, from record chanege requests to global edge servers. Records are updated in batch in an async way, but we try to keep the delay minimal and I sometimes don't really notice it as user.
Can news propagate?
You might be right here. My comment was more of my expectation as a reader on what should be present in such a paper.
In the motorcycling world oncoming left vehicles are basically the "Jesus take the wheel" scenario.

Go left to avoid them and you're potentially in oncoming traffic, go right and you're trying to negotiate a developing mess with a driver who realizes they've made a mistake, or lastly attempt to brake and you might dump the bike or end up underneath a vehicle.

A couple things I do when coming to intersections is almost always cover the brake, flash hi-beams if I think someone is about to take an aggressive jump, or sometimes point an index finger at the oncoming driver to catch their attention. You'd be surprised how many people subconsciously register that they're being pointed at and it gets them to consciously snap into focus.

Somewhat related -> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pointing_and_calling
> Even if you disregard push vs pull, 'propagation' still implies spread through proximity.

I don't think so? Using the same example, I would say news propagates, and there is no specific topology it spreads through.
Another option is to make left turns illegal on more streets and make right turns easier.
Typically in scenarios where it's supposedly a shared responsibility, and one is at a significant disadvantage, where errors from either side has massively skewed consequences, you often want to put most of the responsibility on the one with ability to cause the most harm.

And I don't agree with it being a shared space. In a crosswalk cars are entering pedestrian space. It's not pedestrians entering car space. But that might just be telling on what continent I live.

Have you managed Jira in an enterprise?
How about a long lived one that you inherited which has a hundred half baked projects, 50 crappy plugins installed and users that keep asking for their own snowflake requirements.
Jira is classic enterprise software where they tried to support every feature every enterprise asks for, so they can say yes we support that in some cockeyed way. Now its the de-facto standard and they turn the screws with the price going up year on year, they keep changing the UI but the UX still sucks and you lose track of all the crappy linked sites and documentation that is now wrong .. gahh, you can probably tell I'm not a fan!
As I understand it, clang doesn't have the tools to sanitize WASM. It just emits WASM, which, malicious or benevolent, can't access memory outside its designated memory regions.

It's wasm2c job to ensure that the C generated enforces the WASM memory rules, so I'd say the one sanitizing the code is not clang but wasm2c.
The "theory" of 5-whys is that with a proper mindset and the right questions (coming out of that mindset), you can find a root cause to anything in at most 5 linear steps.

You are certainly free to adapt it in whatever way you wish, but you don't call that "5 whys" anymore. TBH, your approach looks closer to fishbone diagrams instead.

With software, the one true incentive is that someone else will maintain your code and you won't have to spend valuable time constantly rebasing your downstream patches. This is why e.g. Netflix contributes heavily to FreeBSD's network stack.

This is the real reason to upstream, regardless of license. When that incentive doesn't apply and companies only release for compliance, we get Android-vendor-style source dumps and "BSPs" that are not very useful — not upstreamable and often barely even work as documentation.

It's a bit harder with silicon since a chip is "done" once you've sent it to manufacturing, but still somewhat applies when you maintain an evolving line of chips.

Exactly -- furthermore, I wish the US did things more like Germany; getting a license should be both extremely difficult and extremely expensive.

Driving should be considered a luxury, not a necessity, but sadly the entire US is designed around the assumption that everyone has a car.

There's much more to most countries than just cities, and completely changing traffic rules entirely when going into car-hostile territory will continue to cause suburbia and CBD's to exit city cores.
I'm a little skeptical that people's driving behavior changes a lot when you increase the penalty.

This is something that has always fascinated me regarding the US, there's so many workers standing around providing "service". Greeters, baggers and what not, maybe this has changed in recent years since I last visited, and previously lived in the US.

Something in Scandinavia which usually would be operated by a single person, likely teenager, instead has 2 or 3 people hanging around.
I agree, a brutalist fixation on efficiency isn't good. I just see rapid delivery and online shopping as things that are going to stick around, and those two things have completely broken most of the old brick and mortar models.

If it was just big box stores, we could have eventually pulled back and imposed a balance by limiting what range of goods and services could be offered by any one store, or come up with ways to prop up mom and pop. Amazon made those old models irrecoverably obsolete though. The question is going to be how to achieve a healthy market while keeping the benefits of vertical integration. Splitting the logistics division of Amazon away from the online store and content services might work.

I'm in LA and it's in a downward spiral. Went to a restaurant yesterday and a dish was $16 which was a shocking increase. I went to look at menu photos from 2019 on yelp and the same dish was $12 back then. Service was really bad, they basically took the order, delivered the food, and we never saw them again. No water refills, got tired of waiting for the check and had to walk up front to ask for it. I'm usually generous with tips, but why should this poor service be rewarded? And on top of the already inflated prices?

So restaurants are getting squeezed on all sides. Supply costs up, wages are up, labor shortage, rent is up. Tips will go down as customers are upset with poor service, which means more pressure on wages. All of this means higher prices, which means fewer customers and more takeout orders. The old restaurant business model is simply not sustainable.
1) Because pedestrians walk against the signal all the same.

2) Because if it's a dedicated turn signal, you dramatically increase cross-traffic wait time. To compensate you need better signal timing to minimize the number of stops, but that tends to increase speeds, which is not good for pedestrians. If the signal isn't dedicated, it doesn't actually make it easier for the driver to see pedestrians as their attention is still split.

The problem with San Francisco is its reliance on surface transportation, both cars and buses. I live in the city but I can drive downtown 2x faster in a car then if I took the bus, whether there's traffic or no traffic. And while I'd prefer to take public transit, I don't prefer spending 45m-1h in a bus (the "rapid" line) when driving only takes 20-30m. That's an additional hour out of every work day, and an hour spent sitting at that. (I wouldn't mind walking 15m to a subway that would speed me downtown, but that's just not in the cards here. They're even discussing cancelling the Geary BRT project after only building a few bulb outs and painting some lanes, which in actuality saved 10 minutes at the very best.)

As a pedestrian I hate cars. However, in this city I can't only be a pedestrian. To get from one part of the city to another, I need to take surface transportation, which to be efficient needs fast, smooth flowing traffic. (And to be most time efficient for me, that means driving a car, at least to any place where there isn't a direct bus line.)

Doing things correctly requires a comprehensive solution which includes building new infrastructure rather than simply tearing down old infrastructure. Unfortunately San Francisco politics is too paralyzed. One the one hand you have the people who want to tear things down--close streets, etc. On the other hand you have people who don't want anything to change. And on the third hand... well, there is no third hand.
People can have expectations about whoever they like. It's a free choice whether you want to live up to those expectations or not.
I'm too scared to install extensions, any other way to see your design? Looks cool, in any case.
"Hijacking a thread" is a strong claim to be made against a discussion which begins with a shallow criticism based on an entirely unsubstantiated claim that both false-positive and false-negative claims are both highly prevalent. (Specifically: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29461038)

Among other issues, if you want to solve a problem, it helps to accurately describe it. And the problem description here is not accurate, either directly or by its implied senses.

The far more likely case is that 1) false-negative errors are relatively rare and that 2) false-positive errors are large in an absolute sense, because the true positive case is staggeringly huge, resulting in "small fraction of a very large number ... is still a large number."

The reason to consider these facts is simply that they're integral to the problem at hand and an accurate statement of what that problem is.

In your three-item flow suggestions, what happens as the inputs of appropriate and inappropriate content are varied relative to one another? What happens as assessment costs are scaled? How do you account for identity (and more specifically, identity attribution), which I'd argue is actually central to this case. What is the role of reputation? How would you account for a changed reputational assessment, either because of a baseline change in the individual (betrayal and changes of allegiance are utterly fascinating in fiction and history for precisely this meaning), or because of transfer or misappropriation of identity tokens (similarly)?

What's your napkin-maths for a manual-review process? What budget(s) are you going to consider? What alternatives to exhaustive review might present themselves?

Oh, incidentally, in looking at both the FB and YT numbers, one point that stands out to me is that "wisdom of the crowd" utterly fails to rank against automated (and presumably AI-based) content and activity detection. One point absolutely common between FB and YT is that they are not relying on user-based flagging to make assessments, they're very ahead of this. (I suspect that user flags are used to help establish ground-truth, though even that is problematic.)

I tossed out some numbers based on hypothetical false-positive rates. I'd be interested in knowing what such rates you'd be comfortable with.

I also strongly suspect that pursing that line of inquiry is in fact a red herring, though I suggest it Because Reasons. I've a suggested approach in mind, but would be interested to see if you find yourself going there as well.

In the case of self-driving vehicles, one factor which we don't have to consider is the validity of the vehicle itself. That vehicle exists in its environment, and its physical manifestation is a robust assertion of that existence. A chief problem with online profiles is determining which are actual steel-and-rubber, erm, flesh-and-blood humans, and which are mere digital simulacra or sock-puppets. Which is to suggest that online content-moderation has an identity crisis, so to speak.

Self-driving cars would have numerous other issues, but that isn't one of them.
Yep, that’s an option as well, and some tools do it. Figma’s only layer opacity slider is via holding a modifier and dragging the text input field.

I personally like having opacity sliders as well. They provide a nice visual representation of the state that’s easier to parse than reading a number, and you can also do things like set 100% with a single click. Layer opacity is important enough that it should have a text field, a draggable value with a modifier, and a slider.

The other main point of the article is that these tools don’t seem to even realise their precision sucks.

If you want your guard node to be helpful in anonymizing your traffic, you should really make sure it's public and used by some % of the global user base (so that your traffic blends in the noise).
Once you do that though, you will always have to trust that node a little less than you could if it was walled-off so it would only serve you, just because it is another machine serving connections on the internet that will likely be targeted by adversaries who would benefit from turning many of the guard nodes into part of their Tor de-anonymization service.

If I had endless resources and was truly paranoid, what I'd do is build my set of public guard nodes, make sure they're serving Tor traffic, etc.
But then, I'd "borrow" those IPs occasionally for trusted nodes which will only accept connections from me (ideally both sets of machines will be live and routing traffic simultaneously).

In theory, you could apply the same tricks with similar success to exit nodes of course (though as usual, running an exit node is generally a slightly riskier / harder thing to do)
Domains themselves don't use DNS servers in the same way your network connection needs DNS to work right. Did you try using 8.8.8.8 for your domain's nameservers? Because that's a misconfiguration - your domain's nameservers need to be configured to be authoritative for your domain - which Google's HonestDNS is not going to claim to be. (Even if you're using GCP.)
