I think it's also important to quote their demand that providers should "not implement end-to-end encryption until they have the technology in place to ensure children will not be put at greater risk as a result", which sounds very much like "not implement e2ee" because it's always possible to argue for some extra risk.

User-initiated reporting features where the server can only read messages that the user reported would be the obvious solution (and should be uncontroversial), but they're not asking for that.

(To avoid concerns with false reports, the sender could include a random value in the message to prevent brute-force attacks on short messages, and send an unencrypted hash of the message including metadata together with that random value. The official client would only show messages where this hash matches, so a sender cannot just omit it. When a message is reported, the full message including the random value is sent to the server, the server can then verify that this message hash was actually sent through this service by that sender, and report the sender to the police if the content is report-worthy.)
It seems more like it's requiring cors
Direction of travel was undefined in the example, just a car on the earth. Suppose they where traveling 30m/s away from andromeda vs towards it suddenly the timing switches.

Chose a specific vector and both observers exactly agree with the events timing. Essentially the only thing they disagree about is what Andromeda’s location and velocity is. (Edited this several times, but it all simplified to choice of vectors.)

But even that’s assuming spaceships rather than “one stationary and one travelling past in a car” the guy in a car is never going to end up light years distant from the stationary person.
Even after this acquisition Sony is still the bigger fish in terms of games.
Yeah, I completely agree. Vehicle manufacturers can't just come and change out the steering wheel and dashboard in your vehicle, for example. Why can software vendors change out the total functionality of a piece of software you paid for? Especially irreversibly, in the case of DRM-laden platforms like game consoles, iOS, etc. where you cannot undo an update once it's installed, or cannot refuse an update if you want to actually use the software. Recently an iOS app I use almost daily pushed an update that removes a feature I relied on. The dev has never fixed the issue and has made other minor changes since, subtly indicating their change is intentional and permanent, so I'm just screwed forever and lost a core piece of functionality I depended on. Great. This is fine.
"If it's free, then you're the product" has long been obsolete. Time to replace it with "If you can't control it, then you're the product".

Also... It's nginx.com, owned by F5. Am I the only one who thinks it's a little weird, borderline embarrassing, that they're not fronting traffic themselves? "We make the best load bouncers and web server. That's why we ... Outsourced our ingress to another company that doesn't use our load balancers and which only uses our web server as part of their stack. Let the experts deal with heavy traffic, y'know?"
The noosphere is so young, so recently emerged. That a couple early aggressive/exploitative/disruptive signals would dominate & run amock is unsurprising. That we mistake the whole enterprise as maligned while it is only so few causing chaos is unsurprising but tragic.

I feel like we are all demanding too much, insisting on certainty & comfort. We both need to let these companies figure their own paths out- allow the diversity of their approaches- while also starting to let users band together & do their own moderation, create their own socialized defenses & overlays. I dont want to tell these companies what to do, how to handle these problems, but right now most of their terms of service prevent users & others from mounting any kind of their own defense. Ultimately the only people I trust to tell us who the bad users are are other users, and we're not all going to agree. I think that's ok, and that we should embrace sovereignty: we should let more democratic form of social-media-ing emerge.

This researcher has such a better problem redefinition than our simple fears project. I'd love to have more hope that the world could engage the real problems, could avoid the convenient frustrated blame-games & bully-pulpit regulation the drums of conflict & tension beat for.

Alcohol-free beers have their alcohol removed through vacuum distillation - the only reason it's not more expensive than beer is probably because there is no alcohol taxation on the product.
That's harder on humans than on computers. Computers have perfect information on what the legal cardpool is at game they are playing
I just browsed the page from another landing page builder that I've heard of (from an indie developer) and it looks like it has all the features mentioned in your list: https://versoly.com/

I am not trying to say your product is better or worse, just that I fail to see the differences and why I would choose yours over any other alternative.
The scary thing is they can only do that because it sells. Plenty of people like the "new". I think much of that movement is the opposite of sustainability. Software-based products will have even shorter lifetimes.

Even if some cloud service is not needed and it works with "only" a local app on your phone, the phones change quickly and even the OS. Even with backwards compatibility, ten years of lifetime already is ambitious. Devices used to have decades of lifetime. Electronics shortened it, computing elements more so, and now software. The cycles got shorter. The construction also got more and more flimsy. All the devices I got from my grandparents are still usable (cooking, mechanical calculator, photo, film), the more modern it is the less metal and the more cheap plastics that does not age well.

If we had an efficient recycling system, and renewable energy to power the entire cycle it would be doable albeit still wasteful. But we have neither. The cycle is mostly fueled with fossil fuels, adding more and more carbon from deep below ground, and containing the energy of the ancient sun, to the surface carbon cycle. It is not circular, the end products end up dumped somewhere.
Well, I think you also have to recognize that a lot of non-Democrats running for offices in CA are... batshit crazy. Then again, you'd have to be to think you have a chance at winning in this state.

I have to think there will be some point at which the voters will have had enough. Maybe it will be the mandatory 3rd bin for organic waste... maybe it will be single payer health care... Hard to say.

FWIW, I'm not opposed in theory to either separation of organic waste or single payer health care, just the ways in which CA is likely to implement them. That's the thing that has kept me in CA so far. I agree in principle with many things. I'll even admit Chesa Boudin has some fair points about criminal justice reform. That said, there is a gross impracticality to the implementations of many pieces of Progressivism that CA Dems refuse to acknowledge.
UP has its own police with full law enforcement powers. I would be curious to know if that force has been downsized. They did abandon the police headquarters building at the western edge of the LA yard.
>And 5 years is a lot of time which I could use to build a portfolio of projects in the crypto world

Regardless of anyone's particular opinions of the value of "the crypto world", why do you think this is an either/or choice?

A bit of a micro-optimization, but couldn’t you interpret 4 bytes (including the trailing null on the three-letter verbs) as a 32-bit unsigned int and then do integer comparisons or a case statement?
I know this is massively off-topic (have a good well paid "retirement" Igor), but I assumed that it would be written as

Dos Vidaniya

instead of (the correct)

Do svidanyia

My Russian studies is limited to listening to Sean Connery in The Russia House, and I guess I took Dos from the latin languages. Odd.
Reading through the whole linked article seems to suggest precisely this too. Unless I'm missing something, all it's saying is that if you exercise routinely for >1 hr at a time it's more likely that a doctor may mistakenly diagnose you with a cardiovascular disorder because of the characteristic changes in your heart as a result of repeated exercise, especially if they're not aware that you do exercise often. So they have to be careful when evaluating patients who exercise for heart conditions so as to not misdiagnose a collection of otherwise benign characteristics as a more severe disease requiring treatment. In short, athlete's hearts are a little different; evaluate patient with this in mind.
Don't miss these pictures, folks!
"So many small indie game companies are creating great games to compete with blockbusters like CoD and LoL"

Apart from maybe a couple unicorns they aren't, they're a seperate market.

The overlap of people playing Call of Duty and those playing The Binding of Isaac will be family minimal, same goes for sport games which you're hard pressed to find people in the previous camps playing despite massive sales.

I agree with the sentiment though, there's no shortage of quality games made by smaller teams both independently funded or with investment from big players.
The mandatory military service is likely a big part of it. Young people get trained in the intelligence units for ~1-2 years, some stay, some join the industry with high-level experience.
By "they" I meant Google - instead of embedding just their own services in the SERP.

I guess it could be a marketplace made by the industry as a whole or regulated by government.

But yes, you’re right this needs thought.

Developing good regulations is a skill. It happens all over the world in all industries - we need to encourage it to be done well and to iterate and copy practices that work well.
Is there any theory as to what NordicTrack hopes to gain out of preventing customers from using the screen as they see fit? NordicTrack already has the customers' money, so why would they really care?

Are they trying to do some kind of advertising on the screen? Are just going through run of the mill security updates and there's bad communication between the customers and NordicTrack not understanding each other because of a layer of dumb bureaucracy between marketing/developers?
When machines malfunction and kill people, the manufacturers pay. If it was gross negligence that killed someone, someone goes to jail, unless they're the dead one.

Every day, our homes don't catch fire despite all of the electricity running through the walls, our combustion engines don't explode, our batteries don't explode, our buildings don't collapse. The modern world is full of things that could kill us and don't.

I didn't say no one is at fault, the manufacture is at fault if they built the vehicle in a way that we deem was wrong enough to deserve fault.

And we get to decide who's liable, just because you can act like the AI is sentient doesn't mean you can't make the company who wrote the code responsible for the actions of the AI.

And if we wait until self-driving cars are 100% safe, hundreds of thousands of preventable deaths will happen in the meanwhile.

Installation requires the 32 bit Wine runtime, which will require pulling in your distro's 32 bit libs. After that set

export WINEARCH="win32"

in your env, just run setup and all is golden.

It is worth noting that Office 97 + all deps required for 32 bit Wine is still a smaller installation size than any recent Office.
That doesn’t make much sense.

You’re implying that because this AI beat another AI by a lot that all skill gaps between AI must be significant. What if the second and third place versions just weren’t as good and over a relatively short term it all converges?
Same. I have a couple of used treadmills that I repaired for dirt cheap and a crappy TV mounted to the wall. Treadmill cupholders make great remote holders.
Have to say, Pluribus beating top humans for 10,000 hands isn't the same thing as being super human. It's just too small of a sample to make that claim.

Further, thousands of the hands that Pluribus played against the human pros are available online in an easy to parse format [0]. I've analyzed them. Pluribus has multiple obvious deficiencies in its play that I can describe in detail.

It seems like it's very difficult to set up any kind of proper repeatable and controlled experiment involving something as random as poker. Personally, I would be much more convinced if Pluribus played against real humans online and was highly profitable over a period of several months. This violates the terms of service / rules of many online poker sites, but it seems like the most definitive way to claim terms like "solved" or "superhuman"

I lived under communism so please don't tell me about left-wing parties. Not that I find other-wing parties that much better, but leftists have destroyed countries.

Politicians are by definition corruptible - that is why they are there. They failed to succeed through merit in the free market so politics is their last resort. That is why power to the State and politicians means yielding to corruption.

The biggest opponents to nuclear were not corporations but parties: greens and ecologists. Ideologists and luddites. We are living the world the anti-nukes protests of the 60's built.
I think we have different definitions of build quality. When I said build quality I meant it as a premium Device feel: quality materials, good keyboard and trackpad, looks nice.

From the context it sounds like your definition of build quality is reliability and durability, which I would be surprised to hear their business grade laptops are better at.
Totally agree with this. Even if advertisers weren't tracking me everywhere (which is a whole other massive issues), advertising even at its least offensive is designed to generate a want or need I didn't have before. I don't need to be convinced to spend ever more money on the latest gadget, no matter how "cool" I might find it. It's all just advertisers revving that hedonistic treadmill.

If you live in the city, advertisers manipulate you every waking minute of your day, bombarding you from billboards, on tv, on the internet, and are constantly shoving their disgusting garbage in front of your eyes in new ways; at petrol pumps, on your tv menu, right in front of you on a taxi cab.

Worse still, the more you pay to avoid this trash, the more you become attractive to them as someone with money to spend. I can't remove the ads as a walk about the city, but for damn sure I'll remove them wherever I can in my home. Pi hole, ublock origin, sponsor block etc, all running to keep this crap out of my life. If people wont pay money for what creators are making, and they can't provide it for free, I'm fine with it going away. It probably wasn't worthwhile to begin with - only "addictive".

Ads are a scourge and make me sick. There are no "acceptable ads".
You're really worried about people spending money on something. How does people earning or managing other people's money inspire someone else to have confidence to spend money on something? In what way would it be "FOMO propoganda" (which doesn't mean false, by the way) to spend anything?

This entire thread isn't about spending money, its about earning money from organizations that already have wealth in the crypto space. These things don't happen on blockchains people spent up on their own, they happen on blockchains with larger saturation of attention.

Yes, a 13 year old could manage be managing hundreds of millions to billions of dollars. You won't reach your standard of proof here, information appears where there is a benefit to that information existing publicly. There is no benefit for that. The applications are fairly simple and simply isn't an oversaturated space yet. Easy.

> I can't take the rest of your comment seriously when it's based on this claim.

Since you probably shut your brain off again at my first sentence, here is just a stream of thought to your "core questions" in no particular order. They extract value by taking a percentage of volume that passes through their applications. Their applications can manage unlimited sums if people like it. They get other people to participate by being active on forums and social media. The audit system and insurance industry is the protection against fraud, or none at all. They don't launch their own blockchains, bad assumption to begin with, the applications solve problems on existing ones or just provide entertainment. Children cash out when they are 18 by opening an exchange account at that time, this was answered earlier, they can acquire property, make investments, and get access to capital before they are 18, also answered earlier. Pretend to be a US child and look it up on youtube and ask around on TikTok and discord and see where you get.

I'm a zwift user and I really like it. You can designate a course and it will adjust the resistance to match the elevation changes. There is live or ghost racing (with simulated drafting, which is cool) and other neat things, but the routes and structured training is what I'm there for.

My tacx trainer was only $300 or so when I bought it, which was comparable to non-bluetooth trainers. That said, I already owned a fancy roadbike to use with it, which is not a negligible cost.

One rather specific thing that may or may not apply to you, but I see very often on Ubuntu servers:

Docker containers completely bypass UFW rules (the default firewall on Ubuntu Server). Even if a port isn't open, if a docker forwards it to a container it will be acceptable from the outside. So if you're running Docker, make sure your container port forwards are only bound to localhost (apart from the ones you want to expose intentionally of course) and/or that you use the appropriate patches/scripts that fix this issue (there's a few different ways floating around the web).
In the bacterial example, each individual tumble chooses a new direction at random, and the effectiveness of the algorithm depends on the smoothness of the chemical density function in the 3D space that the bacteria is swimming around in.

In his human examples, all the "tumbles" are conscious decisions made by the person in response to their circumstances.

If there was some human equivalent of the "tumble", it would have to be something that was change just for the sake of change. Like: "I'm bored and/or frustrated, so I am going to do something stupidly different".
you're actually looking at the intersection of three problems:

* LTE is very noisy (it has echos in its sidebands for up to 100Mhz)

* low-frequency LTE is *loud* -- punch through mountains loud.

* These altimiters are doing the RF equivalent of looking for a needle in a haystream

While FCC Part15 says "accept any/produce as little as possible", much of this comes down to the physics of RF.
This is one of the dystopian incoming realities. Automation will be extremely pervasive in daily life and especially in urban environments. But because it will be dumb and there will be no profit in making it smarter or to improve respectful interaction with humans, we will be the ones corralled to allow the automation have free reign. Whatever noble intentions the small minority working on this might have, it will mainly be another gut punch to human dignity in the name of capitalism.

i no longer buy that at all, i use to but not any longer. The whole "make police the bad guy" thing is over and done with. If police are not enforcing the law then how are they protecting anyone from anyone else regardless of class.
Unlikely in any sort of near term. AI isn’t going to be making strategic decisions for the poorly defined word that is reality. It’s not like StarCraft where you can reduce things to a math problem. There’s all sorts of unique contextual knowledge that makes it impossible for a simple model to understand.
I think that's already happening. Airframes may not be changing that much, but the capabilities those airframes are carrying have changed a lot, and that's probably a lot more important than the vessel itself.

As it has been pointed out, the studies are fundamentally flawed in that the participants know they are of a limited duration. Getting a stipend for a few months isn't enough to quit your job. Being promised one for the rest of your life certainly can be.

UBI is basically communism lite - with all its flaws. People who are provided for tend to behave just like animals who are provided for - after all, people are animals - they mainly lounge around and try to amuse themselves. This isn't a moral judgement, just an observation. I've not seen any study that has conclusively refuted this.

It is the rare, exceptional, person that will spend their free time on something truly productive and constructive. We can see examples of this already - we've made it very easy to get a loan and go to college, partially socializing college education. As a result, we have a surplus of college graduates and a shortage of labourers and trades. Introducing UBI would simply magnify this effect. When people have alternatives, they don't tend to want to go work on farms, construction sites, or in restaurants or shops. People work these jobs primarily because they would otherwise be destitute. I know that's why I did.
