Learn Python and get comfortable with Unix/Linux.

There are a lot of books for learning Python (get something that is Python 3.x) that cater to different tastes. Find the one that looks the most “fun” to you so you stick with it.

If you have a mac, learn to use the command line. If you use Linux, learn to use the command line. If you use windows, setup WSL or a vm with Linux and learn to use that command line. There are a few books out there that are fun (I once even had one) but I can’t name any. The unix books I have now are specifically less fun and more nuts and bolts.

Why Python? Because you will be able to use it regardless of what else you do. I am mainly a JavaScript and Ruby programmer and I use Python for some things.

Why Unix? Because programming is significantly less painful for a lot of use cases on Unix.

Whatever way you go in IT you will be able to use the foundation you build if you know Python and Unix.
> He just summed up what JKRs position was

.. which was based on a set of wrong (and inflammatory!) claims about how trans healthcare works.

> and said this person is a potential trans ally.

Only in the sense that any alive person is a potential trans ally; you are not an ally simply because you claim to be, you have to actually do the work, and in JKR's case that means she would have to do a lot of work simply to undo the damage and hurt that she herself has caused to trans people.

You can't say "I would be an ally to those people if only they'd stop cancelling me!", that indicates a fundamental failure to understand what an ally is.
I feel sort of bad for this comment.

The reason is because the reason given is perfectly sound. “We have to split this out because of perfect reasonable reasons like laws, data retention policies, etc etc”.

And everything afterwards is pure unadulterated propaganda.

I don’t know if the commenter knows how patronizing they sound. “We did this for you because even though you’ve previously explicitly opted out, we think we know better than you and we’re doing you a favor to enhance your experience”.

Imagine going into a restaurant and saying “I really don’t enjoy a medium rare steak please make it medium well” and having the chef say “ok fine but medium rare steak is the best way to enjoy it so I made it medium rare despite what you previously explicitly told me enjoy”

I really wouldn’t expect this sort of borderline gaslighting from a company like Google. I really can’t tell how many PMs and engineers on this team either a) whole heartedly believe in this or b) have convinced themselves this is a user friendly change or c) knows that something feels off but their paycheck depends on it so let’s not fight too much about it, d) feels some reservations and have voiced up but have bills to pay so didnt rock the boat
There are many scholars studying bureaucratic processes and if anything can be learned from this is that it is by design and nature of its function that bureaucracy is not able of adaptation to changing conditions (in timely fashion), nay, it will resist the exact thing you deem to be the core of a good educational policy (adaptability). In short, I would conclude that the confidence you posses on this very point is misplaced in my view. And it is precisely that which is inherently dangerous in it.

What am I proposing to change the mindset of masses around climate change, you ask. I do not want to bifurcate the topic here by unpacking the world view encapsulate in this (Its not that it is all wrong or such, but it is hardly so simple). However, I want to pick out from this the concept that "masses are to be manipulated for their own good by the enlightened elites" as a appalling one, and particularly harmful to the way to further advance us in socio-politico-economic phase-space into the future.

What is not the way is to brainwash children with dogma (for dogma drilling necessarily stalls the exact conceptual, systemic thinking we need to better our civilization), no matter how hype or valuable it is perceived to be at a given time. To instill framework of us vs them, or in/out of group dynamics, false sense of understanding, and at the same time extracting populace's allegiance to the "state" to save the day is pathological. What to do next cannot be spelled out in a comment section, and in any case it is input into a debate anyway. However, putting intellectual roadblock to such ill-conceived and inherently rotten ideas such as the one in question here is a must.
OneDrive blows.
This set of ideas is exceedingly interesting for use in fiction. There’s been quite a few different examples in the past, and I’m working on another one right now.

I absolutely appreciated the extra perspective.

I keep browsing history in Firefox turned off. Not out of privacy concerns or anything like that - it's not leaving my computer and nobody else inspects what sites I've been visiting - but just because I don't like having it. If I find something useful I bookmark it.

I do the same in Drive and Gmail. Because I just don't like having the history suggestions pop up when I'm trying to search. It's annoying and obnoxious and frankly quite useless IMO. I can type the query again.
This basically warrants end-to-end encryption so that such takeovers are can be prevented. Of course they complained about encryption too.

Great decision.

The author makes many good points, especially those about the long-term effects of alcohol use. Once past the youthful decades, booze begins to take a terrible and undeniable toll.

It was obvious to anyone technical they didn't work as they presented themselves to work, but it takes time for the courts to deal with such things.

They are also totally annoying and I suspect there primary purpose was to annoy users and not actually comply with the GDPR. It was a way for these companies to fight the GDPR with a war of attrition. I'm glad you see with this round hasn't worked... Yet.

I suspect that based on this ruling, things will not get better, as in providing a less annoying user experience and more compliance with the GDPR. Instead I predict another round of pseudo compliance and a more annoying user experience. Eventually they'll start a policy campaign in earnest stating that the GDPR is unworkable.

Incorrect. It gives the designers and developers an opaque dataset of user behavior which they can interpret in many ways. I find their interpretations of this data to be highly motivated and suspect.

This statement about privacy of mmWave radar you raised made me wonder if someone haven't already tried to implement SAR[1] with mmWave radar, and quick search reveals that indeed, this is being looked into, eg.:

- https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?arnumber=9136646
- https://arxiv.org/pdf/2011.00636.pdf

That said, it doesn't mean that every mmWave radar could work as SAR.

> I would argue that a supernormal stimulus should be avoided at all costs.

I don’t like these kinds of blanket statements

I had friends that played WoW and were able to have a perfectly functioning life. They got great grades and had somewhat healthy social life.

Unfortunately I’m not in this camp, if I play online games it will consume my life as nothing else.

A better statement is: know yourself. If you have an addictive personality, stay away from supernormal stimulus. Now, If you’re blessed with genes that can regulate yourself, by all means, go ahead, play games and do whatever you like, you won the life lottery anyway.
That's fair, I just got the impressing that they where more focused on the infrastructure aspects of the problem, rather than the bugs in the Necko and Viaduct code.

Male homosexual activity is illegal even in private, and is actively prosecuted:

https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/courts-crime/governme...

Same-sex marriages have no legal recognition and gay couples cannot adopt children. No laws exist to prevent discrimination against gay people in employment or housing.
Finally! Some people keep arguing that GDPR is toothless and unenforced, but I think it's just that it takes time to tame the wild west. It's work in progress, and that progress is looking ok.

I really hope also pass at least the part of DSA where they make terminal signals for opting out of tracking legally binding.
One can be smart in a field and not in another: negociations is more important in politics than coding.
Annoying indeed but at least on my machines I can always get them back manually if they don't show up automatically by going to the history menu and choose "Restore Previous Session". Hopefully this should work everywhere.

(Note: I'm trying to help, not place blame here. I won't blame anyone for not being aware of every power user trick but I hope to help more people become power users. Please do ask questions about Firefox, even if I'm moving to LibreWolf I still wish Firefox well and think many would be better off using them but just aren't aware : )
The question wasn't about whether one should go first here, the question was whether if I make $100k should say either

a) "I make $100k today and I want at least 20% more which is $120k"

vs

b) "I want at least $120k"

The difference there is a lot less obvious. Of course, in the second you might have a minuscule chance of them offering way over $120k whereas in a you would not.
An important part of the problem, I think, is that there are plenty of examples of large corporations putting people at risk or harming them, either knowingly or out of negligence, and then lying like a rug about it or trying to cover it up.

Think of the tobacco industry denying or downplaying the risks of smoking, knowing full well about the harm it causes. Or the pharma industry pushing opioids on physicians and patients, claiming with a straight face they were not addictive. I'm too lazy right now to go looking, but I'm certain there are plenty more cases like this. Suspecting large corporations or even entire industries of putting profits above the health or lives of lots and lots of people is not really crazy.

Suspecting that Covid vaccines are a vector of implanting microchips in people so they can be mind-controlled via 5g is crazy, IMHO. But the line between these is somewhat blurry. And neither corporations nor governments seem to be doing a very good job of dealing with this other than paint people who are hovering in that blurry area in the crazy corner. One may feel morally righteous in doing so, but it is very counterproductive. If we want people to come back to the "sane side", we need to convince them, not pressure or insult them.
Ok... UI (icons) still looks blurry for me.

Symbolic logic. Learn:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_dress : a viral tweet which triggered a huge discussion of colour illusion. Colour really is perceptual.

There is, once you get sufficiently pedantic, no such thing as the "actual colour" of the car. You can say things like "spectrally within 1% of Pantone Red 032C under standardised lighting conditions", but the range of responses that will produce in traditional or digital photographs and then on screens and human eyeballs is much wider.

I'm not clear whether tomlockwood is trying to define "real" as "consensus (perception of) reality"?
In the linked article there’s a Parker quote that doesn’t appear to be a list of facts - it looks like a summary of JKR’s position.

I recently moved to Yandex 360. We previously had DNS, mail etc. on Google until an outage[0] occured. The outage was the classical story of "billing error in related Play Store (!) account nuked entire GCP setup", which diminished trust enough that I decided to move everything away from Google. I'm a Xoogler, but even then getting through to the right support channels is hard.

Yandex services are pretty nice (they have an equivalent to most Google things), but even more important for me is that - even on the lowest plan - you can talk to a real human in support within minutes, 24/7.

Precisely. Adding to all you said:

All assignments to the Supreme Court and its Circuits follow a Technocracy system, not a Democracy.

Citizens in their daily affairs are subject much more to a Bureaucracy system than to the results of a Democratic system of government.

The "intelligence community", for example, part of this Bureaucratic system of government, has extremely strong power.

This is true for the US and most - if not all - other self-claimed "democracies" nowadays.

I think Democracy accounts for <50% of what governments can influence in our lives. I'd personally say it's less than 10%, but being conservative. Anyway, it's certainly not the majority of it, so I wouldn't say we live in a Democracy. It's a mix of Technocracy/Bureaucracy, with a thin veil of Democracy.

I agree that settling in the west bank is illegal, but hearing excuses for the prosecution doesn't lead to any fruitful discussion.

I don't think this is consistent with GDPR.

People seem to forget that even if you pay Google you aren't their actual user, you are just a bundle of data to be sold for ad revenue. Paying, it seems, just makes you more valuable because now Google knows you pay for services and that signal is worth more for ad targeting.

I avoid downloading apps in general, but in particular social media apps because they make use of many dark UX patterns (notifications, location/data access requests, etc). I'd rather avoid altogether. So I browse reddit, twitter, facebook, instagram, etc from mobile web when I do use them. Your app may promise not to have or add those patterns, but I still won't use it if I don't have it as a fallback. I also spend a great deal of time on my laptop and need the option to use a desktop app or website in order to interact with a social media service.
