No there's a whole industry, with MPA driven security standards around getting digital source files from the studios to the streamers (or usually actually directly to the streamers DRM system)

That being said there are likely multiple "masters" of a film that are available to the streaming service to choose from however.

If you're interested details of the MPA Content Security Standards can be viewed here (PDF)

I think you're right that the services themselves break, but more often than not, the failure mode is that what page you're monitoring changes its structure, and then every refresh gives you data that is incommensurate with what came before. It's why we version APIs, but there's no such versioning we expose on websites.

I think that also points to why what you propose would be very hard to do: in HTML pages, even if the page structure (a new div level) changes, it's hard to say if that's actually a fundamental change to how they've architected the information hierarchy you're trying to get notified out, or if that is indeed the information itself. It's ambiguous.

Maybe that's okay? Like, if all you want is a notification about every time a thing changes, regardless of the meaning of the change, then what you're describing is possible. But I think the meaning of the change is important, and that's ultimately what shifts over time in ways computers cannot grok.
In my world, "loser" and "winner" don't make sense. The world is not composed of people who are losers and people who are winners. It's composed of people with different motivations, different aspirations. That's it.

The article does not define loser by the way, so I'm having difficult time to understand what the article is supposed to mean. For what I know, "loser" could mean "people this author doesn't like", which is irrelevant to me.
I wonder if “all of the above” is too crazy? All of these companies have reached a stage in their corporate life where innovation is expected to stop or at least slow down.
> If someone builds a fancy new apartment building with amenities, units in the 60 year old building next door automatically fall in value and become more affordable. We need to build housing, period.

More than likely (at least here in Seattle), the 60 year old building next door has already been bought by a developer and is just waiting its turn to be redeveloped into more fancy new luxury housing.
No, it wouldn't. The land is what's valuable and the land in those extremely high-demand areas would be worth more money if the zoning allowed more uses on it.
yeah pretty much, I've even found myself pirating things that are actually on the services I pay for because playing a file is just a better user experience

I also find collecting to be satisfying, there's something nice about knowing that Netflix can't just decide to take Arcane away from me
As someone who was 110% pro-worm this was a bitter pill to swallow, but yeah, my beloved compost worms (Eisenia foetida) are a "non-native invasive" species.[1] "And so it goes."

I wonder about the ecological equilibrium that might obtain in a thousand years...

[1] "Eisenia fetida worms are native to Europe, but have been introduced (both intentionally and unintentionally) to every other continent except Antarctica."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eisenia_fetida
It's the same in the UK, everything over 33% is called "unaffordable" and you'll fail the affordability checks during referencing. I don't think it's a legal requirement though, just safer for the landlords.

Personally, I've never had a stable income in the UK, so for the last two places I rented I had to pay 12 months upfront.

I'm quite skeptical the 33% threshold makes much sense (though it may be a decent heuristic in most cases).

Compare these two scenarios:

1) Affordable rent: £18k/yr income, £500/mo rent, £823/mo left after tax

2) Unaffordable rent: £30k/yr income, £1000/mo rent, £1005/mo left after tax

#2 is better off financially than #1, assuming costs other than housing are similar [1]. But the 33% affordability threshold will make it harder for #2 to rent than #1.

[1] I think that's broadly the case, but will vary based on circumstances. E.g. childcare is more expensive in London, or you might need a car in a rural area.

>which seems difficult since they're also the people who claim it's not a real concept.

A straw man if there ever was one. Insofar as anyone even says something like "race isn't real", the claim isn't that the concept doesn't exist. What would that even mean? The claim is that it isn't biologically grounded, or that it's socially constructed or some such.

If the representation of blown-out highlights on Hulu is accurate, something else beyond just color grading has gone wrong. That's cinematographically-relevant detail loss. A lot of people might not be able to put their finger on why that's a change, but most people would experience it as a small but noticeably different tone.

I qualify my statement because there's a lot of things that could have gone wrong between not just the studio and Hulu, but Hulu and my viewing of the images on my screen here.
Singularity Energy | Software Engineer, Data Scientist | Onsite (Boston) or Remote (USA) | $100k-$120k, 0.1%-0.5% equity

In order to decarbonize the grid, the world needs better carbon data and analytics. To support this mission, Singularity Energy is building the world's highest quality view of historical, real-time, and forecasted grid carbon emissions. Today, grid carbon data is siloed, outdated, and lacks spatial and temporal granularity, and with new climate pledges and decarbonization plans being announced every day, there is a tremendous need to get the underlying data right. We started by launching https://carbonara.energy/, a data and analytics platform (with 700M+ data points and growing) that helps companies build carbon-aware products, and we're looking to grow our team in order to improve the sophistication of our offerings and expand our capabilities to become the 'carbon intelligence layer' for companies and governments.

> It is to become less adversarial to government and corporations and more hostile to ordinary people with ideas that Twitter doesn’t like

Very glad this got mentioned, in all of this people have forgotten who their enemies really are: the government for some, the big corporations for other, sure as hell the real enemy is not Sam from around the block who doesn't believe in LGTBQ rights. Sam doesn't have an ounce of power, no matter how retrograde or not his beliefs are, the government and the big corporations have, lots of it.
"Yes FGM exists in many places in Africa. It also exists in many places in Asia. So what? Regular mass shootings are a peculiarly American thing. Does that there is nothing else to discuss about the US?"

I don't think you make a good point here. Should female genital mutilation in Africa not be discussed, just because it also happens in some places in Asia? Should mass shootings in America not be discussed?

"But also, how that implies that any wiring about Africa is incomplete without alluding to that fact."

But it also is not incorrect to allude to the fact, as there are indeed Elephants in Africa.

" It was about writing _accurately_ about Africa."

There is female genital mutilation in Africa and those other things, so writing about it is not inaccurate.

"An article about that would be representative of the concern of many actual Africans."

Everybody is free to write such an article.
I remember when a Netflix subscription was like having Blockbuster inside your living room.

Now its mostly just Netflix originals which aren't necessarily bad but maybe not worth it's own subscription every month.

I appreciate your breakdown of the situation, but it does make me wonder - are the people who become temporarily homeless consistently able to get back on their feet into into new jobs/homes with the resources governments currently provide?

The longer quote includes the question (paraphrasing)

“Filmography” means something more like bibliography and might be defined as “a list of films” for one purpose or another. Like a director’s filmography would be the list of films they worked on.

AMD nowadays have them beat there

I am not sure what world you live in? Their entry-level chip (the M1) beats workstation-class AMD CPUs like the Ryzen 3700X in most benchmarks, while being passively cooled and using 15W for the whole SOC, while the 3700X uses at least 65W for the CPU alone and requires a large cooling block. All while being passively cooled.

In matrix multiplication workloads, that same entry-level CPU is roughly as fast as a 12 core Ryzen 5900X, while using only 7.5W (the 5900X pretty much goes up to 105W for the same workload).

And all that while delivering stellar battery life.

You can hate Apple for their politics, walled-garden approach, etc. But your comment completely mischaracterizes the engineering feat of M1 CPUs. They have gone from having no presence on laptops/desktops to setting the gold standard for performance per watt.
GP:

> Turns out each major chain gets their own model number for certain products like TV’s and refrigerators. Just to fuck with consumers trying to make an educated choice.

You:

> No, the retailer-specific model numbers are requested or required by the retailers, who either... or just want to avoid people doing price-matching.

I mean, I don't see the difference. both of you are in agreement it's to fuck people trying to price match. I guess the fact that the retailers insist on it makes it okay in your mind??

Meanwhile, I doubt there are any real featureset differences for most things with model numbers. There are cheap versions of clothing for Walmart, but that's ironically going the other way and trying to confuse the customer by making them think they are the same items.

How are you defining prodsec and corpsec?

Prodsec -> Product security? Does that differ to the appsec role that you also mentioned.

CorpSec -> Corporate security? What would you mean by that?

Sounds like independents need to band together and vertically integrate by creating a meat packing facility that serves them and passes on the profits. Similar to, albeit on a much smaller scale, how the local grange can allow farms to plan who is planting what and organize who owns what specialized equipment and the reasonable rate for them to utilize it at others' request.
Hey, thanks for making a bright spot in my day! I appreciate your appreciation. [RecursionError]
I was mainly referring to intranet web apps created by businesses. Most of the big players in the 90s didn't port to web apps until fairly recently and I can only think of Microsoft Office, which I still prefer the app over the web experience.

>if you think what most people do with computers today is harder than it was in the past, you are just plain wrong.

Depends on what you mean by harder. Software certainly is more complex than in the 80s and 90s.

>Being able to hit F1 to get help was something that was done by maybe .1% of the population.

You just made that up. I wrote software in the 90s and still do. Context sensitive help was invaluable.

>we've also just gotten better as an industry on making software

Software certainly is more complex than it used to be. Sometimes it is necessarily so, most times it just seems like devs like to use the latest whiz-bang framework to pad their resume. I'm not sure I would call that better. In the 90s, we'd develop software expecting it to last at least 20 years. Today, it's "move fast and break things."
I regularly consume news and other content from the CBC (radio and news app). I haven't noticed a "hard left" turn at all. The CBC has ALWAYS interviewed pretty progressively.

I'm assuming what has happened is that, since MeToo/BLM/Trans issues and protests have become front and centre, people are talking about that more. But really, COVID is dominating the airways at the CBC too.

I can't speak for internal newsroom politics of course.

Another comment made the observation that the CBC is really the last news source that is left of centre-right with all of our other traditional media sources centre-right and slowly drifting right. Our most popular "left" newspaper, The Toronto Star, was usually taking centrist position with pro-business leanings, but it's been moving right too.

Full disclosure, I get a most of my news from the Economist or the CBC.
He [Dr. Malone] used "mass formation psychosis" to describe the observed generality of what is happening and mentioned the historical effects learned from the Nuremberg trials to put it into a relatable context.
In context (and hindsight) it was the necessary "emotionally manipulative hyperbole" to kick off the whole shebang, eh?

> July, 2019: 11,000 dead
> July, 2020: 16,000 dead

Where are you getting those numbers?

2019 - ages 25 - 44:

- represent ~320 deaths per 100k. [0]

- represent 85M pop. [1]

=> That's ~272k deaths per year in that age band.

You can check my math.

Further, this chart shows covid deaths as a proportion of all cause mortality. [2]

For ages under 50, covid accounts for 1-5% of all deaths.

For ages over 50, covid accounts for 10-15% of all deaths.

The green tint was always there, but was more subtle and the "Matrix" sections had also washed up colors. It become way more obvious in Reloaded/Revolutions and for the BD version they used the same color grading to contrast reality/real world sections in all three movies.
Netflix shouldn't have ever been included in that grouping.

Maybe I didn't word it well enough, but I intend to comment on a broad category of discussion that I don't think is necessarily inappropriate according to the guidelines, but tends to produce unproductive, hostile conversations.

Honest question, do you really think that if Facebook disappeared tomorrow anything would change? Considering the complaints about Facebook plague every other social website including Twitter, Reddit, and YouTube. That's also assuming another social media site won't rise up to fill that same role (maybe an existing one)?
I was not able to watch the first movie when it was released in cinema because I was a year to young to watch it (Germany late nineties and no PG-13 madness as it is today). But I watched a double feature when Matrix reloaded was released a few years later. And I still remember that I saw the color grading of Matrix Reloaded and was really annoyed by it. For me Matrix before the sequels where released was blue (you can also see this in the movie poster, which you can find green graded versions now as well ;)). With the release of the sequels everything became green. I’m also the owner of the blu-ray release and was not amused by the color changes.
I mean, the fact that 1 reputable scientist doesn't approve the vaccine doesn't disqualifies the thousands of reputable scientists that approves it. Scientific consensus is never unanimous.
True, but the price seems a bit lower (for now). A fully loaded cable account back in the day for me was $180 (including internet).

Now days you can get internet for $50 or $100 (depending on location, speed etc).

Then if you wanted say 5 of the various platforms, that's going to roughly be $50 to $70 more. So that's still a likely savings.

And on top of that, all new movies are basically being PRODUCED by these networks, so for the most part you don't need a theater (or their prices).

And on top of all that, instead of just fully subscribing to all of them, just get one at a time. Want the new Dexter series, get Showtime. Done with that? drop it until season 2 is out.

So it definitely can be a lot cheaper than the old days.
Is this in any way inspired by Chamath Palihapitiya advice to short a FAANG that you think will decline and go long the one you think will do best (to hedge against major market moves)
+1, it's ridiculous and misleading that Netflix is still being included in this list after all this time.

Netflix is a TV company. Their tech is a commodity. An important commodity, for sure, but it's not what makes them valuable. Their critical offering is their reach and programming.

FAAMG (or MAAAM now, I guess?) is a sane grouping of giant companies because their critical offerings and expertise areas are their software and their platforms. I think Google would be totally capable of reimplementing Netflix's streaming services if they needed to, but after years of trying they still haven't been able to fully match Amazon Web Services. That's the difference between Big Company and Big Tech Company. Similarly, it's why Tesla isn't on this list: they're huge and growing and they write software, but their software is just a means to an end, not a valuable platform in itself.

just to clarify for the casual reader, the GP comment talked about adding salt (NaCl sodium chloride) to drinking water, and the parent comment is talking about "not for hypernatremia"

But from the root words, hypernatremia appears to be too much natrium/sodium. Presumably hyperkalemia is too much K potassium? the low sodium salt substitutes you see at the grocery are generally potassium salts.

only pointing this out because the two comments boil down to "you should add sodium to your diet" and "no, not if you have too much sodium" which somehow seems a little simpler

In the United States the Overton Window is so far right even the Democratic Party is center-right. In a Scandinavian Country I'd be a fairly moderate, conservative social democrat. Here, if people knew my thoughts, I'd be seen as a Wild-Eyed Radical. But given the politics in my country, I've given up compromise and actually moved further Left. And more militant, less quiet.

Luckily, the organization I'm currently involved with (the SRA), while hilariously disorganized, is firmly Left.
