> _Who_ has been "spending the last few years..."? Is it the same people who are now "outraged over a single schoolboard..."? Can you show that?

Of course it is the same people, that was implied by my sentence, obviously.

Just being willfully dense and refusing to comprehend what someone says does not refute them.

If you had spent any time reading HN, you would see the plethora of commenters who would defend actions far more egregious than what is alleged to have been done by this schoolboard.

In threads discussing California's changes to their curriculum, there was a sea of commenters defending things far more absurd than the scopes monkey trial.

It would take me less than five minutes to use the hackernews search tool to find these threads, must I do that for you?

Are you really going to make me spoon feed you?
All those things sound like basic engineering or QC issues.
I've frequently seen bullet points being treated exactly the way the author describes AND being treated: A reader will seize on a particular bullet and treat it in isolation, as if the other points didn't exist, nuance shredded. They're still useful but unmagical.
It's not that these people shouldn't be free to leave this or that platform, it's that they shouldn't want to. It's illiberal to refuse association with someone over a disagreement. It's even worse to try to "deplatform" them. If Joni Mitchell wants to spread some message about public health or vaccinations, she can do so without all these histronics.

Some other things occur to me:

1. It's not like Joe Rogan owes his audience to Spotify.

2. Rogan is not "alt-right". The people who claim that he is are either lying or have adopted a creepy consequentialist mindset wherein someone is "alt-right" if they act in a way that they believe helps the "alt-right". In the latter case, I'm "alt-right" for writing this post.

3. Nothing Rogan says is ever that extreme. Dumb? Sure. But "young, healthy people don't need to get vaccinated" is not extreme. He's a controversial figure because he's a convenient foil for the legacy media.
Spotify was so desperate to get into podcasting that they immediately did whatever it took to get the biggest fish in the sea. Joe Rogan is their Moby Dick. They got their whale.
> port forwarding

Well, you are gonna have to replace port forwarding with firewall rules instead. At least for me, I really don't excited about my parents or in-laws internal networks being wide open to the internet. Thus their entire subnet would need to sit behind a "default deny" firewall. And if they need to expose some service to the internet, they'd need to punch a hole in the firewall--which is exactly the same dance you'd have to play with port forwarding.

The only thing IPv6 brings to the table for consumers is each device gets a globally routable address. But that doesn't mean each device can or should be be reachable from outside the router. One way or another client software will not get away from having to open ports on the router.
Yeah but the products would result in objectively more healthy eating by the customers.

This is really a matter of "feelings" vs "health", decided only in the end by what instagram thinks makes them more money
We can prove that it is a logical impossibility for some algorithm to exist, but I don't think we can say, given an algorithm with a certain set of steps, that there isn't an equivalent algorithm that requires fewer steps.

Also, "steps" here would have to be measured in terms of operations on a physical machine (or at least an idealised perfectly efficient physical machine), but different architectures would allow different operations, and that's before we start considering different models of computation.
One reason behind the question is to quantify the impact of racism in society. Can you propose a methodology for quantifying racism that avoids this?
> Hell I'm pretty sure comcast's cable modem doesn't even have IPv6 firewall capabilities and if they do it is default wide open. Thats not what I want. I have no interest in outsiders being able to ping hosts on my network or even know of their existence. I have no interest in letting random IoT devices expose open ports to the entire world (by default).

Comcasts cable modem also doesn't have any firewall for IPv4... it's a cable modem, it passes packets.

Your CPE (customer premises endpoint) is where the firewall lives.

> IPv6 is cool and all, but no consumer gear sets it up even remotely secure. At least with NAT a "script kiddy" grade attacker won't see what is behind your router. NAT isn't perfect but it solves a lot of problems. Not so with IPv6.

Most newer consumer gear that does IPv6 blocks all in-bound traffic on IPv6, just like it does on IPv4.
Government should be minimal, regulation and policies aren’t a magic wand. Functioning free markets self regulate. The crux is that it’s very expensive and difficult to break into the market.

I’m also really tired of hearing folks continue to advocate for regulation of everything.
yes, but the "left-wing elites" aren't the ones pushing political nihilism. "Government is not the solution to our problem, government is the problem" isn't something the left ever claims.
I’ve tried thinking about this from Tesla and the auto manufacturer’s point of view.

I think, while battery technology is rapidly evolving, the incentives of EV manufacturers is not to create “open interfaces”, but instead to integrate the battery into the hardware as much as possible. This gets better performance but also creates lock in.

In short, my theory is that until there’s a “battery company” ecosystem that sells up to auto manufacturers, this dream of swap stations will not materialize. Barring some regulation, I guess.
> Nuanced communication usually doesn't work at scale

"Nuanced communication usually doesn't work." seems more accurate. Being precise and clear is hard.
I've tried looking, but have found no answer to that question.

For these sorts of geek culture stories, I usually expect to find some sort of back-story or context.
They had plenty of stories where field owners couldn’t find Americans who would stick to the work for more than week.

Would you work in the field for twice your current pay?

If I had a choice between living by myself and making $36/hour working in a field and getting a roommate and working in a warehouse (or an Amazon delivery driver), guess which one I would choose?

> I would be more inclined to get behind a cryptocurrency that correlates liquidity with value.

That could possibly be built. It's software defined money so it can do anything that can be expressed as a pure function of its state. You could probably make a Keynesian cryptocurrency that dropped money from helicopters when velocity was low, but it would be hard to design it so it wasn't easy to game via wash trading.
Boot time is not a good measure of performance.
I use Fastmail but can’t speak for Protonmail. I wanted to use Protonmail actually, because Australia, but they have an incomprehensible 5GB allowance. Fastmail is better with 30GB which still seems low IMO.
I’ve loved Fastmail. Wildcard emails are really nice. It’s also much faster than Gmail, in my experience (I still have a Gmail account at work.)
This excellent essay reminds me of a profound saying I overheard while, of all things, shopping at the grocery store: "if you don't stand for something, you'll fall for everything." In the case of this essay, if you don't account for the value of yourself and what you believe, everything will feel like it costs too much.

It should also be noted that the author directly says "It is good sense to appoint individual people to jobs on their merit." in a quote that appears on the same Wikipedia page. There's more to that quote of course but the dismissive "meritocracy was coined satirically" soundbite erases the sensible arguments and warnings that the book tries to make.

> P2P would be much much cheaper for everyone if everyone used IPv6, so it makes a difference.

I dunno how true that is gonna be. P2P clients will still have to traverse a firewall that may do deep packet inspection. A lot of the problems faced by P2P will still exist even in a pure IPv6 world.
It's far more likely the statement refers to a lack of user tickets, project requests, or compliance requirements as that's normally how IT finds out what to do next. I've never seen an IT staff with so little to do they are monitoring the network looking for packets for ideas of what they should implement next instead of implementing things they've been trying to get time for for the last 5 years. Link utilization maybe but that's a completely different beast.

Not to mention it's extremely hard to know how to check the statistic you described without becoming aware you don't have the things needed to generate the statistics so this reasoning kind of rules itself out with the exception of AAAA records - you'll actually see those requests even if all you have is A records on an IPv4 only DNS server.
Damn, I’m getting my hair cut at the wrong place. I like my guy though. He massages my head.
Once you are working with VLAN's you are out of the bailiwick of consumer hardware, and you should be looking at more enterprise grade gear.

At that point having a default drop on the external interface and different rules for traffic traversing VLAN's is entirely possible, in fact that is what it is designed and built to do.
Also learn to love to stare at the ceiling for 10 minutes multiple times every day.. Once you do that, you’ll realize maybe a lot of this need for external stimuli is a way to skip thinking about what you may need to really think about in your life.
The neural spike is definitely not an epiphenomenon. The action potential / neurotransmitter release / receptor activation process is understood and can be manipulated with electric probes.
Slightly OT, but since you mention accidentally deleting it, how do I delete my G Suite?

The screen to delete says

> You have at least 1 active subscription. You need to cancel your subscriptions before you can delete this account.

and when I click to cancel my subscription it says

> All administrative controls available only with G Suite legacy (such as sharing policies, audit and reporting, and alerts) will be removed. To continue accessing these administrative controls, you'll need to purchase G Suite legacy again.
> To use the Admin console free of charge to delete your organisation’s account, you agree to the Cloud Identity agreement.
> You’ll lose access to your G Suite legacy service immediately
You can’t undo this action

So I'm paranoid of locking myself out with no way to still access the admin console to delete it... and with no support obviously
Agreed, I was completely off on this one :-/

Yes. Many people. Issue is lack of alternative and how the whole society is built to cater to this lifestyle so many people are forced into it if they want anything more than a shoebox 1 bedroom. That’s why understanding why this option became the only choice is interesting to study.

I wonder if you could checksum the telephone game by having a 2-level comms. That way the VP could validate that the Director didn't make a mistake when communicating to the EMs.

Eg,

n-level comms are where a CEO communicates to the entire org

1-level comms are where CEO->CTO->VP->Directors->EMs->ICs

2-level comms:

CEO->CTO+VPs

CTO->VPs+Directors

VP->Directors+EMs

Director->EM+ICs

> Comcasts cable modem also doesn't have any firewall for IPv4... it's a cable modem, it passes packets.

Most of the new stuff comcast ships is an "all in one" device that acts as an access point, a router and a cable modem. You can buy third party cable modems that do what you describe but what comcast gives you is much more fancy.
The interface on the router provided by the UK's largest ISP is almost identical to the interface for IPv4 port forwarding: https://imgur.com/a/NXqwoA6

I ask the following to hopefully promote discussion, I don't necessarily espouse the opinion.

With most of the US critically thinking about the electoral / senatorial systems, and how the scales do tip towards rural states..

What concessions, if any, should rural states / areas be entitled to, given that they are the food producers for our country? On paper, that could provide leverage / a "bargaining chip" in this discussion.

The flip-side to this coin is that the more urban states / areas are the economic drivers of the country, which is clearly a source of leverage as well.

I feel like most people don't think about it in these terms, and I'm curious how it would impact their opinions when adding the dimension of leverage / "social value" to population.

Perhaps these should have no weight on a discussion of representation?

This is the big point I think the title article is missing. And I think its going to take some time for the bubble to pop, they tend to be self-sustaining, but it may shift its focus off of Peloton and the winners early in the pandemic. I wouldn't bet against TSLA right now.

There's likely to be another boom later this year as Omicron goes away (even if we get another wave later) driven by positive emotions. Right now all the animal spirits are maximally negative and they're pretty poised for a reversal.

Nothing... it means nothing and your inability to define it precisely beyond vague concepts proves it.

Races have a precise meaning in domestic animal breeding, there is a rule book, you cull the offspring that mutates too far away and aim at purity of attributes as defined in the standard. You get certification for your animals by various standard association who measure shape, color and size.

It makes no sense for humans. You can say gene X produce problem Y if you want, but there s no discrete segmentation in humans.

> But “communicating requirements in a written doc” is serious hard work

Precisely. Hence managers delegate this to devs to figure it out themselves and make documentation easy enough for them to understand on a higher level so they can make it look like they understand whats going on. This is what been exposed with WFH.

The important thing that pisses me off is the salary of manager is about 50% higher than IC's. IMO it should not be 70% of IC's salary considering the skills it requires. Manager does not have more responsibility than IC. Manager never takes responsibility for projects failure, its always blamed on IC. Its easy for a manager to get away because usually about 5 IC's will be in a project and one or two failure to deliver features are tolerated. Combine this with attrition its so easy for a manager to not take any responsibility.
I was going to reply "so worth it" but I checked my subscription - $399/year (legacy) now $499/year. I had gotten it when I was starting consulting and needed to read books per client projects, and could write off the expense for taxes.

Now, I'd have to say no. I read maybe one book a year. ( I "could" read hundreds, but in the end, I don't) I could buy the physical book, which I prefer, and 7 or so others and keep them, instead of a virtual library. Or get them from my public library. Or from archive.org.

The only advantage was the unlimited library and the auto-update of books from revision to revision. But your question has caused me to cancel the subscription.

If you can get it from library or university, I'd say it is -- but not unless you read a lot of books per year.
>he's asking about a hypothetical alternative in a very specific way, which is to see whether it sheds any light on the logical foundation of QM

Could easily be done without any references to an omniscient, omnipresent and omnipotent concept with exactly zero scientific evidence. Even worse the whole concept of God literally defies logic, so mixing god into this discussion is laughable, if it didn’t come from an authority in the field of QM. I have a lot of respect for Scott, but IMHO he would be more persuasive if he left his religious beliefs out of this argument.

>Scott's aim is to understand QM better.

How does referencing god help with this endeavor?

What makes the “subjective feeling of identity” different from just having a different personality? Or what makes it different from a subculture like the ones of the past - punk, goth, emo, and so on. I think of gender as being strongly related to sex (like a trait of belonging to a certain sex), although I recognize there is an ongoing debate around how to define this word (gender). And I view personality as more personal, variable, and subjective. Is it that personality implies individuality whereas the subjective feeling of identity for trans people comes with group belonging?
Definitely. TANSTAAFL

I do wonder if flat is an overreaction though. Intuitively I’d expect a mixed strategy to be most effective.

Edit: reflecting more, most claimed flat companies aren’t. So maybe they are pursuing mixed strategies and comm’ing out a simplified message.

If Joe Rogan and his controversial guests can make make a better argument for their pandemic perspective and influence people better than the CDC, Fauci, heath experts, et al. I’d argue that is more a failure of the CDC, Fauci, health experts, et al. as opposed to any failure of Spotify to censor and pull content from their platform.

If people want to make Joe Rogan inconsequential to the pandemic they should demand much better quality communication and chaos from our health experts, which has been sadly to date—all over the map.

Thats thinking outside the box though probably not good advice. I've been to more confessions that I can remember. I can tell you the vast majority of priests are going to mostly keep the topic to religion and joining the church and working on your relationship with god/praying. If you are suicidal this probably is not going to help in any meaningful way.

I suppose you can probably find a priest that is willing to talk but that may take some time and eventually they are going to start cold shouldering you if you don't join the church.
