Either way, the responses here give me a lot to go on!

I guess I need to revamp what is emphasized and in what order. It's going to have to hammer on security all the way. Everything else is incidental and a "nice-to-have".

First, the need for tight and precise specs, not allowing optional or under-defined behaviors or too many features, and what goes wrong if a data format doesn't do that (I'll see if I can simplify the admin example or maybe do a $0 cost purchase exploit example).

Next, versioned documents and why that's important: Without it you're limited in how you can update the format to deal with emerging threats as they come along. Otherwise you get deprecations, loss of code space, and the possibility to get permanently stuck with an unfixable problem.

Then talk about fundamental type support and why we need so many: If you don't do that, everyone has to make their own encodings for common types (like dates, media etc), which won't be compatible or as carefully thought out, opening up security holes again.

The trick is how to make security sound sexy enough for people to take notice...
This is very cool. Should be tagged 2019 though.

Yes! I use Vultr for my personal kubernetes clusters and it does not come with an ingress controller.

> Does VKE come with an ingress controller?

> No, VKE does not come with an ingress controller preconfigured. Vultr Load Balancers will work with any ingress controller you deploy. Popular ingress controllers include Nginx, HAProxy, and Traefik.

(as an aside: VKE is in beta and they absolutely actually mean "beta". It has many issues that need to be resolved (for example, I haven't been able to connect to the control plane for weeks because of a memory leak) so at this time I'd only recommend trying them out for non-mission-critical stuff. I would have been fired by now if I had ported my startup over to this.)
I do agree with your underlying defense of private property. Spotify has a legal right to do this. There is no contractural issue here. And this is not censorship.

But there is a cultural question that I think this defense sidesteps a bit. I'd frame it as a question.

What level of heterodox opinion would you encourage Spotify (and the like) to tolerate? What opinion would be heterodox to you or your peers that you'd want to see Spotify to defend as the realm of reasonable on a platform of broad interest to the general public?

> Arguments over constitutionality will come in due course

Which means that you have absolutely no justification for the law being illegal. You just don't like it, and are reaching for whatever things that you can, without any justification.

> That remains to be seen.

This is code for "I have absolutely no good arguments, or any legal justification, for why it is illegal, I just want to assert that it is illegal because I don't like it!".

Because if you had good arguments you would have said them.

So I have no idea why you are making these strong claims that it is very unlikely that it will pass constitutional review, when your only justification is "that remains to be seen".

> No they aren’t.

Yes they are. Go look up the EU tech laws that they are attempting to pass. They include a similar provision, that would force other app stores on the platform.

You are pretty misinformed if you didn't know that there was a big EU tech law, that they are attempting to write and pass right now.

> You and I both have no accurate metrics on his audience demographic. We are not privvy to it. However I can infer from the size and the fact it is inter-nation that the idea that only people that fit inline with the "US Conservative" viewpoint cannot be correct. Which was the original claim I was responding to. I am not asking you to "trust me bro". I am asking you to use some good judgement.

My opinion of him attracting more conservative (not just US by the way) audience is based on his antivax stance, which is very popular among them, and he seems to shoehorn this topic quite frequently in his recent episodes.

> As for Joe Rogan being conservative leaning is that is a nonsense. He is in support of socialised of healthcare, legalisation of cannabis and other viewpoints that many conservatives in the US are deeply opposed to. If you need any evidence of this watch his interview with Steven Crowder. They were at compete loggerheads about it. I was quite shocked at the time as the interview become extremely combative.

I didn't watch it before because it's Crowder but you piqued my interest here, I'll have to watch it later.

> The radicalisation accusations comes from older news media which he is in direct competition to.

I'm not taking this argument from older media, I don't read it. I have visited /r/JoeRogan a lot over the years, and the discussions there changed quite a bit. The difference between new and old listeners and the discussions/opinions they have is quite palpable, although not scientifically admissible sadly.

Counter take: they are building a brand new infrastructure that will replace, little by little, the existing finance infrastructure. It is just one of the many ways that "software is eating the world".

It is very hard for someone to understand something when them drawing a salary depends on NOT understanding it. Like how desktop apps developers saw HTML then javascript being just a fad, or getting horrified at the terrible performance of say early webmail. They were right on the latter (at least initially) but dead wrong on the former! Look at v8 performance now, and see how most issues have been fixed, because it made financial sense to do so, to support new usecases. And new stuff keeps coming like webasm.

You can't fight progress. You might dislike it and wave your first at the sky, while the new generation moves along and chuckles at this foolishness.

I predict for coders who refuse to deal with crypto the same bright future that coders who refused to touch web stuff got: they will slowly make themselves irrelevant until they hit retirement age. Someone who only does MFC apps in Visual Basic might still find a job, sure! And it's good for them! But ultimately, it doesn't matter, as there will be 10x then 100x more that will have fewer moral issues using languages or framework that need work getting done, until a rewrite of the old (yet still perfectly good) stuff is decide because it's become a liability to support old tech that almost nobody understands anymore or can be hired to fix if needed.
Coincidentally, my high school history teacher accurately predicted in 1995 that Russia would eventually annex Crimea. He was a Swedish-American who did his Master's thesis on the 19th c. Crimean War. Putin is a dangerous guy because he has a chip on his shoulder that the West ruined the Soviet Union, is likely the richest man in the world, has nukes, is okay with assassinating dissidents, and wants to Make The Soviet Union Proud Again, especially if it keeps him dictator for life.
Another point of view I’d like to offer is that very few people actually _need_ Photoshop/Illustator. I thought I did, until I discovered Canva and PlaceIt. Sure, they’re not super flexible but you can usually find some template that works and just use that and be done with it before Photoshop has even finished loading.

> I wonder if a big part of the allleged theft from the little guy isn't due to dishonest CPI statistics that manipulate officially reported inflation to be lower than the cost of living increases most people experience.

The thing is, the breakdowns, source materials, algorithms, data - they're all published. This isn't Joe Biden goes to the podium and bestows unto us that the CPI was 7% annualized this quarter and doesn't take follow-up questions. Everything is tracked, measured and published by the BLS. [1] People don't take it at face value, think tanks run their own assessments too. Then you have crackpots that just "add 7.5%" to the number and call it a day. [2]

But intuitively we know that "just add 7.5%" is way too high, because if the annualized inflation had been 10% since the year 2000, that means prices would have to be a minimum of 8X higher than they were in 2000.

- In the year 2000 an iMac cost $799. The latest iMac is $1299, not $7000. That would be 2.2% inflation.

- In the year 2002 a Big Mac cost $2.39. Today a Big Mac is $3.99, not $19.12. That would also be 2.6% inflation.

This whole conspiracy theory around a wildly different "shadow" CPI is just that.

You can even compute your own based on receipts you have lying around. I suspect you'll find it not materially different from the published numbers.

> Also perhaps fractional reserve banking does create the issue thatp those who can borrow money and buy assers have an advantage over those at the bottom who strugglle to buy assets and cannot borrow.

I'm not rejecting the cantillon effect wholesale, I'm asking for a quantification, which I have yet to see anyone provide. Folks tend to point at it and blame it for everything but then not have any substantiation of its size.

However, I strongly suspect poor folks and especially middle class folks, have far more debt as a percentage of net worth than rich folks do and so spend more time at the spigot so to speak - relatively, not in absolute terms.

> The challenge with honest money, is you cannot really control monetary policy (the free market will set interest rates) , but the benefit is, nobody can debase it too easily.

Debase is a poor term to use because modern economics shows us that supply and value are not tied in the way folks intuit. For instance, Japan has 3X'd their money supply since 1990 but their CPI is literally dead-ass 0% and has been for 30 years. Their prices for anything and everything on average remain exactly the same as in 1990. This is why we reject the Austrian school.

> ... but also if you gonna bailout consumers with stimmies they will pay for it later in higher taxes.

Money has a value and a duration. Stimulus bills pull future money into the present. You don't pay for it later in taxes, per se. If the stimulus creates economic activity yielding revenues in excess of the stimulus itself then it can be 'free.'

A stimulus is an investment and it is a common mistake to look at the liabilities line without looking at the assets line.

I tried to. Even got an offer letter. The pay would have been lower than what I make now, but still been enough to live a comfortable existence. Which has been, and forever will be enough for me.

I was thrilled to be exiting tech to go do something different and interesting.

Offer got redacted due to what I'm only going to call for now "shenanigans" by my previous employer during the background check.
I recommend reading Glenn Greenwalds piece on censorship: https://greenwald.substack.com/p/the-pressure-campaign-on-sp...

I believe the core issue here is: while the first amendment applies to government, it is something that businesses should try to make a core part of their ethos. The censorship that tech companies have been doing are really against free speech and freedom of association.

Yes, companies are within their legal right to do the censorship we are seeing. That doesn't mean it's right.

That's awesome! I'm glad it still works. I stumbled upon this work around 5 years ago when I was in college and Adobe quietly switched my subscription from the student version to the full CC suite.

Completely agree with almost everything you have said, but to clarify on your caching point:

> But, even though it adds local cost for storage and DB, caching searches per user could reduce costs in some scenarios

There may be some opportunity to do this, and caching results would be a good idea, but most forms of caching are explicitly banned from the Google and Bing API T&Cs. Some caching is allowed in some circumstances, but this will limit the usefulness of caching to reduce costs.

> Because, while I love the idea of paid search... I think I do 100s of searches per day, so if you pay for each page of search results, and winnowing down results with additional terms....

Agree with this - and at your usage levels plus $1 per 80 searches plus the $10 fee for 30 / day, you will be talking about $40+ per month, or $480 per year - enough to buy a new Macbook every 2.5 years :)

But IMO having been on the discord group the founders have got themselves into a trap of thinking "Charging per query is the only way we can make the sums financially work because we use both the Bing and Google APIs, thus we will need to get users to accept to paying per query".

> Suggested solution is to use width:100%.

Which, for a block element inside a block container, is the default anyway.
The main reasons were likely:

1) Ease of access. The North was geographically closer to Europe. In days when travel was slow, the difference was not trivial as it is now.

2) Climate. The median European latitude is roughly on par with Maine. The North would have felt more like home, while the South would have been very different (and not in a good way, in those days before AC!)

3) Northern Industrialization. The vast majority of the population (71%) and industry (~90%) was in the North. If you were looking for a job as an unskilled laborer, there was far more work up North.

4) Immigrant communities. In a sort of feedback loop, more immigrants in the North would naturally make it a more desirable destination for future immigrants. If you're a poor German immigrant who doesn't speak English, you'd feel more at home in a German neighborhood in New York City than in a Southern city which might not host a significant German community.

5) Slavery. Slavery undermined the market for free labor in numerous ways. First, most menial work was done by slaves. Second, slaveholders would 'lease' out their slaves to serve as laborers, with the pay going to the slaveholder. As a result, the going rate for labor was much lower in the South than in the North. Even if an immigrant aspired to farm their own land in the South, they would still be in competition with slave labor. In a sort of unvirtuous cycle, the existence of slavery meant that the only way to gain wealth in the South was to own slaves, which would have been cost-prohibitive for an immigrant.
I think maybe the words:

"Yearly plan, billed in monthly instalments"

makes the point more clear that you're in for a year. You can then put accompanying print that says "early termination fees apply".

But really, apart from people perhaps not understanding that "Annual" is doing the work of saying "yearly, not rolling", I don't get the logic here.

With climate change we will likely continue seeing more extreme weather events, so the point seems valid. The Netherlands isn’t exactly immune though. Utrecht also got a heat wave last year, though still about 10F less than Portland.

There’s also the risk of water management generally in NL, with so much of the country below sea level

I doubt this will make you feel better but perhaps it will provide context. This scientific team tagged 28 hares.

In most parts of Alaska, they have no bag limit on arctic hare, which are an abundant and renewable resource. This means it is legal for a hunter to go out and shoot 28 hares in a day.

Apple's restrictions are anti-competitive for all iOS users, and have a negative effect on iOS users who have different preferences than you. You don't speak for all iOS users, and it is not your place to demand iOS users who want to obtain iOS apps from alternative app stores to go out of their way and switch ecosystems to satisfy your preferences, if a more convenient option is available for them to obtain what they want.

Allowing alternative app stores does not prevent Apple from setting arbitrary fees and restrictions (like Apple Pay and Apple sign-in) on apps published through Apple's App Store. You are still free to exclusively use Apple's App Store, regardless of where other iOS users choose to get their apps from if Apple's anti-competitive restrictions on iOS app installation were removed.

The annual subscription is in plain sight. The cancellation terms are the result of bad web design for people using browsers whose browsers have made the idiotic choice to hide scroll bars by default (i.e. all mobile browsers and Safari) but that can be defended if the devs used Windows to make the website.

Actually, on mobile the terms and conditions get cut off halfway through a sentence so if you'd actually read them you'd see that they continue below the fold. Maybe that's not the case on iOS, though?

Their cancellation terms definitely suck but the terms and service and subscription term seem quite clear to me. "I didn't read what I was getting into" is hardly a defence. These details weren't hidden at all.
I don’t disagree, but if the flight crew tells you to get off the plane, you get off the plane. You can argue about it with the airline’s corporate team. You’re not going to win a fight with the flight crew, nor should you expect to. Make a best effort attempt to make your case (politely and with decorum), and if they still boot you, you’ll have to seek recourse post event.

> but for some reason it doesn't seem like the right approach.

The approach being used in containerization is namespaces. You can put new processes into a new IPC / user / PID / network / time / etc. namespace, which isolates them from the parent namespace. Once that's done and you can't mess with other processes via the filesystem / kernel, the remaining hole is servers with inadequate security models, such as X11.
I literally quote what she said in my post:

That's not saying they should be taken down, she says "do more to call out misinformation".
> In the quote I included above, who is the "you" that is telling and who is the "yourself" that is being told?

This is still begging the question by the use of "who". There is no "who", there is no self, there are only thoughts that refer to a "self", but the referrant does not actually exist in the way that's implied by these thoughts; there's no spirit or homunculus in your mind to which "self" actually refers.

> the conundrum of consciousness is not about how humans think, but the fact that we have subjective experience (which may includes lies told to ourselves by ourselves).

I think the paper I linked is a good start on answering this question. Per my other reply to you, whether this kind of answer is satisfactory depends on what you take "subjective experience" to mean.

If you buy the thought experiments (p-zombies, Mary's room) that suggest some sort of "ineffability", then this explanation will not be satisfactory. Personally, none of those thought experiments are remotely convincing.
There is a reason not all sentences are life sentences. Sometimes people do things wrong and if they are willing to change their ways we as a society should forgive them if it's safely possible. Just because someone does something wrong once doesn't mean they are that person forever.
