many sort-of-recent home network equipment support this stuff or equivalent (i.e., multiple networks) just as a configuration from their admin UI. You don't really need relevant experience to set this up, just very basic networking knowledge and will to occasionally shake your head at the web-based-admin-user-experience of the box.
This would have been a mistake if it was facebook's first rodeo, it's not.

For the last couple of years anything that used to be "Merry Christmas" was actively suppresed on mainstream social networks.Replaced with Happy holidays, whatever.A company adjusting this is fine,obviously(you don't have to repeatedly wish happy X, you just do it one time), however in the case of individuals where it's more common that a person only says Merry Christmas/Happy hanukkah/etc, we've repeatedly seen that such messages get "lost".Again, it's not a mistake, but then again if you point out that facebook actively engages in this behavior through leaked documents, nobody bats an eye.
The only thing annoying about the term “web3” is that it downplays the eventual real-world impact of a lot of the capital innovations taking place.

Personal lack of understanding doesn’t mean that something important isn’t taking place (which I am guessing is how you see things since it’s so disgusting to you). Every wave of capitalist innovation is filled with shameless promoters and wannabes, alongside the legitimate stuff... If that bothers you, the messy and chaotic nature of human progress might not be your thing.
Ask HN: What couldn't you do this year? What do you want to achieve next year?
Depends on what kind of redundancy you want. You can achieve quite a decent uptime for a single instance with local redundancy, process health watchdogs to restart things, crash isolation… Yes, some people will need a cluster with no downtime on failure events, but the clustering itself adds complexity and can even increase downtime if it causes problems. For example, a single machine can’t have load balancer issues, or replication errors.

Also, you’re assuming an active-active redundancy scheme, which might not be always necessary, and not counting the cost of the elements required to support the cluster.
> I could see how the same language could be used for ADLs and programming

I don't buy that there is an actually meaningful distinction between "ADL" and "programming". That's the point.

Programming today is almost entirely composing existing procedures/functions/object/modules/libraries/programs in order to build a system.

> but that implies programming all done in one language

Why on earth would it imply that? It's not like there currently is only one "general purpose" language or just one "integration language".

Objective-C is also a language that combines the integration mechanism ("Objective-") with the "programming" part ("C"). See Brad Cox's writing. But why have the integration mechanism be only messaging? Why not support others as well?

And despite Objective-C combining these two aspects, there are other languages. And in fact, Objective-C is particularly good at talking to other languages. Objective-S is that, and also particularly good at talking to filters/pipelines (or being placed in a Unix pipe) and also particularly good at talking to REST servers via HTTP, and at creating modules that are accessed via HTTP by anyone. And at talking to filesystems and exporting components as FUSE servers.

So I really don't get where this There Can Be Only One™ Uber-Language idea is coming from. It is the exact opposite of reality, at least in this case.

> I can't think of a language that I'd want to use for everything.

I can :-). For some specific definition of "everything". Once I get the native compiler fully working.

> [hard part is] motivating everyone to use it.

Motivating people to use stuff definitely is a hard part, but not sure why it has to be "everyone". But the way to get there is to identify a problem that is causing sufficient grief and provide a solution that is sufficiently compelling. I think I'm getting there. And then talk about it.
True. I only told them how to use CashApp which only sells bitcoin.
> Most humans want human context in information searching.

No, they don't. Ask any librarian about how many patrons of their libraries only interact with them during the check-out process.
Not the parent, but I feel the same way so I'll chime in. It's basically just something that stands out and looks "off" so it's (very, very slightly) uncomfortable. I'm not going to do or say anything differently, it's just something my brain processes as weird. I feel the same way seeing people dressed that way anytime they're out in public, not just for air travel.
A state-wide system is a really nice thing. You are lucky!
A lot of water is probably not a good thing while fasting.

The easiest fasts I ever done were dry fasts. The hardest was with a lot of water.

However since I got a kidney stone after dry fasting (I have no 100% proof it's correlated but it was close to a fast and it never happened before or after) I now drink a little bit of water while fasting (something like 300 ml per day, I do several days fasts, not intermittent).
I went to my local homebrew store today. I think I'll make a smoked porter.
It's also worth noting that, in the case of the Fukushima accident, all nuclear reactors shutdown correctly when the earthquake was detected, before it reached the plants. All of them, including the affected plant, shutdown as designed. Then the tsunami came and created a bunch of issues (lots of vital equipment at ground level, generator trucks came and were incompatible, yada yada yada).

Japan has a great early warning system for both earthquakes and tsunamis that has been in operation for quite a while now(since 2007?)

I have a special immunity to crypto scams. I simply never have and never will purchase any kind of crypto "currency" until someone can articulate, at a bare minimum, one advantage it confers to me over and above "normal" currency in day to day usage. Bonus points if that benefit even comes close to offsetting the environmental carnage the ecosystem wreaks.
> That's the website slogan, not part of the article.

Yes.

> If Facebook reversed the decision, it's not censorship.

Maybe if they reversed it with a time machine.
The amount of politics in the crypto space is mind-boggling. Bitcoin is "only" the #1 by market cap at this point due to first-mover advantage and network effects. In terms of technology and capability, it's massively behind (though there is an argument that its network is the most valuable due to its hash rate making it the most secure of PoW blockchains, there are also arguments for PoS, and more arguments that the security is self-fulfilling; if other PoW blockchains overtook bitcoin by market cap, the miners would switch over)

But when people who hold/promote bitcoin criticize web3, one has to question whether they're doing it because they want people to continue regarding bitcoin as the "safe" crypto asset.

They do a very great deal more than that. Places with strong unions restrict what they do just so they don't compete with union labor. But that leaves enormous leeway, which is reliably exploited.

Many private prisons have contracts with states guaranteeing them a quota of prisoners, on pain of monetary penalties. It becomes the job of police and courts to deliver that quota, regardless of behavior, because there is no money budgeted for penalties.

Everybody can be found guilty of something, if you want to.
The GDPR, which is what you are commenting on is all about privacy and private data shared with companies for the goal of processing with a specific purpose in mind.

Privacy and private are very well defined terms in that context, and you are adding a unique spin on it that makes fruitful discussion impossible.

'information wants to be free' is a dumb line that got passed around a lot in the 90's by people who thought that they were being clever, but it turns out that there is lots of information that doesn't want to be free at all, and some of that information is about you and you also don't want it to be free.

Your example is nonsensical, and does not further the discussion either.
Is that not correct? I guess I should touch on my order of operations. I thought distributing was part of the parenthesis step, that came before MDAS.
Perfect, now we've moved to pragmatic criticism of the current state of NFTs that have nothing to do with the concept of NFTs.

(Non NFT tickets fluctuate wildly in price. Transaction fees on almost all chains are extremely low as gas is negligible in cost, with Ethereum mainnet being an exception.)

So we have less revocable or irrevocable digital goods that are tradable, scarce per collection that provably predates any subsequent issuance, tertiary benefits to physical and digital access, and membership. Even if this technology only was considered to do any of each of those things moderately well, instead of replacing any incumbent implementation, you still have trouble with .... what exactly? We've now agreed that each one is a single asset that does many things at least decently well without any custom implementation needed to be built even if the existing ONE thing in each category has an okay incumbent, and you get a fun picture to go with it. Yes, to some people that has aggregate value.

What are you still having trouble with at this point:

-Whether you should ever own/possess one?

-Whether you should ever use money to own/possess one?

-Something about speculation being bad?

-Something about not knowing if the market will still be there for resell and wondering if that would make everyone else leave the NFT space?

It seems like cognitive dissonance to me, since some of these ideas compete with each other.
> These malicious advertisements rely on people’s trust in the Amazon brand and desire to get in early on cryptocurrency initial coin offerings (ICOs).

Gosh. I'm doubly-lucky: I don't trust the Amazon brand further than the end of my nose, and I haven't the slightest interest in ICOs. I don't trust Avast either, but I can't remember why.
That's called a cop-out.
> What people really mean when they talk about censorship is first amendment rights.

I don't agree. The snarky and smug "nuh uh, cuz it wasn't the government" responses [often maliciously] assume that complaints about censorship are talking about the first amendment, but I think people are generally aware that censorship can come from corporations too and their concerns are not limited to apparent violations of the first amendment specifically but are concerned with the more general principle of free speech (which predates the first amendment.)
Mastodon's not the only player in the federated social space, just the app with the biggest footprint.

You can get a WordPress blog, install the ActivityPub plugin, and you're now a fediverse actor which other actors can then subscribe to.

Mastodon's cool and all but let's not conflate this piece of software with the bigger network.
Good point. How to classify:

'Don't risk catching Omicron and passing on to others who may die by going to see the latest, widely panned, episode of The Matrix starring Doogie Howser as a psychotherapist, a middle aged woman as an action hero all set against a stalker's perspective on romance. Same goes for Yaamava which opportunistically released a commercial with a Morphius-like narrator over slow motion scenes.'

Is this obvious, non-obvious, common (or novel) advice?
You misrepresented BCI.

And there are other independent sources showing forced labor in Xinjiang [1][2], regardless of what BCI Shanghai said.

BCI Shanghai is contradicting the BCI headquarter [3], and BCI Shanghai is not credible on this matter [4].

While there are plenty of authentic reports, and investigations documented by independent research groups, the BCI Shanghai’s statement to deny the forced labor in the region makes us just think how much pressure the Chinese team of the group faces from the Chinese government.

It is not that rare for a local Chinese branch to contradict the global headquarter, possibly due to pressure of operating in China.

For example, the local Hugo Boss in China wrote statements on Weibo (supporting Xinjiang cotton) which contradicted the global Hugo Boss headquarter (stating that Hugo Boss does not use Xinjiang cotton) [5], and the headquarter clarified that the Chinese Weibo statement was unauthorized [6].

BCI Shanghai is in a similar situation: the local branch operating in Shanghai (claiming to find no forced labor) did not represent the headquarter [3].

The problem with what you cite is not (only) with the outlet (CGTN), but with the source (BCI Shanghai).

You are like stating that Hugo Boss is supporting the Xinjiang cotton, because you find a Weibo post by the local office supporting it [5]. This is wrong [3][4][6].

And with other sources finding forced labor in Xinjiang [1][2], the BCI Shanghai statement is a red herring in this discussion.

I think making it as easy as possible to take extended mental health time off is important. My last job would go on and on about how you should take a “mental health day” if you need it, but what if you need a mental health six months?

Also helpful: a culture where it’s okay to tell your boss about the mental health issues you’re having and what kind of support you need.

I don't get it: the main developer do not like to add Fastmail into the list of possible email provider? with the code already written by another developer?

"GMail, et. al is at the top since that's what most people already use" written by somebody creating code for Gnome? a bit weird.

I love the comment:

"I would prefer Geary to warn the user about the hostility of the service they are using instead. As in, if you are going to show an email and a password field, and if the user enters a gmail account for example, warn the user that they are about to make use of a software that spies on its users. This way, we are not making it hard for people to use gmail, but rather trying to educate people about gmail's ethical stand. "
Slaves taken from Africa seem to be about 12 million over the course of 400 years. Churchill apparently was responsible for about 1.5 million dying by famine, plus another 2-3 million by epidemics (this is dwarfed by the up to 73 million that died by famine in the 200 years of British rule that preceded Churchill). Native Americans who died by colonialism is harder to count, because of very poor estimates of how many people were around before 1492 -- estimates range from 15 million inhabitants to 145 million. Current estimates seem to be about 100 million dying as a result of both disease and intentional genocide over the course of 500 years.

Put all of those deaths together, and we'll say

So all that to say, a lot of people have died in the things you've named, coming out to a little under 1 million per year. So dozens of millions dying per year is still a staggeringly large number (though helped along by how many people lived in the 20th century, compared to earlier centuries -- I didn't compare using a percentage of the world population.)
> Jack is exactly right in that "web3" is just a way to build third party owned services on top of a distributed infrastructure, just like companies right now sit on top of the internet. People who don't want to be censored or any third parties can already do this on the internet by running their own site.

I always thought that "web3" meant everything was on the blockchain. In other words, you could theoretically re-invent Twitter as an Ethereum Smart Contract.

In doing so, every "Tweet" would be on the Eth block chain. You'd probably want a web page that interacts with the block chain to read/post tweets, but even a static HTML file on your local hard drive that interacts with Metamask could achieve that. You wouldn't need to run a site.

Of course, therein lies a new problem: Scale. A quick Google says that there are 6,000 tweets sent per second. Meanwhile, the Eth block chain handles what, 10-20 transactions per second, and ends up with fees that are several dollars worth of Eth? Nobody other than political figures and spammers are going to want to pay $5 to send a Tweet.

I think you're onto something there. We've come to think of war — endless war — as a normal part of life in the US. Even our actual wars are now the War on Terror, not the war in Afghanistan or Iraq. We may defeat one enemy (or more likely declare victory and ditch), but there's no expectation that we'll defeat Terror, or Obesity, or Hate.
I think Facebook's wettest dream is to make WhatsApp into something like WeChat. At least in Brazil they are almost there.

You're definitely doing updates the hard way. DokuWiki's file layout is designed in a way that makes it safe to simply overwrite it with new releases. Anyway, I just wanted to chime in to correct a few facts. I'm happy you found something that works for you.
email works the same way.

If I, as the email admin of xyzcorp.biz get too many spammy emails from your domain, you can expect to be blocked / defederated.

are we dismissing smtp now as a protocol?
You are misrepresenting BCI by citing BCI Shanghai, which is a red herring in this discussion, see my other comment [1].

The problem with what you cite is not (only) with the outlet (CGTN), but with the source (BCI Shanghai), and also with using a red herring.

When I was in the army 23 years ago (ouch!), when there were some kind of speeches or other events where we were supposed to stand to attention for a long time there always was 1 or 2 guys that would pass out.

> The one that you might have on a bunch of servers, or give to github, or whatever

Exactly what I avoid. Each of them gets their own separate key. Never the same key to a bunch of machines (except maybe transient VMs).

But I agree, if a server changes its SSH implementation to one that does not support your existing key, it's a hassle, to say the least. In reasonable circumstances this does not happen without a plenty of warning well ahead of time, to allow you to regenerate your key in a new format.
Yes, its a fairly well known issue at datacenter scale that if you power-cycle everything, some percentage of things won't turn back on (I recall something like 1% of HDDs just failing to work again being the number quoted at me). This obviously isn't the case for fresh new HDDs, but ones that have been spinning continuously for a years.

Other hardware is similar.
It needn't provide an advantage in day-to-day usage, just some niche advantage that works at least once.

For instance, buying metal bullion from a major online vendor such as APMEX, you can avoid credit card fees or long wait for a check/ACH/wire(faster than previous two but still takes hours) to clear by paying in crypto. It's basically <30min clearing for any arbitrary large amount. The closest you can get to that without crypto through most major bullion vendors is a wire, which depending on your bank is anywhere from free (rare) to $25+. Sometimes the crypto fees are waived, other times they're merely much closer to check price than credit price.
They could do a better audit of their supply chains. I'm guessing silica is a big thing for them? Excuse my lack of knowledge on raw materials for processors, just jumping to silica = silicon. I do know the region produces a bunch of it used in solar panels.

Intel could also refuse to sell chips to companies that facilitate this genocide - and they are soon going to be forced to more broadly than the current sanctions list.

I don't know if any companies like DJI, surveillance camera companies, etc use intel chips but with the new law just passed companies like Intel will have to do a better job making sure their product does not come from or is used to facilitate uyghur human rights abuses.
You might be interested to learn that DNA is not actually read-only.
