If it is for secrecy then why not delete the information and inform those who ask they do not hold such information? The issue was the discrepancy when a third party tried to verify, and I'm sure third parties would quickly learn to work around the fact?

Instead making everyone associates is like an error propagating far from it's call site until an exception (this article) is raised.
There is a chargeback process. It's a very rarely used exception I believe, and also incurs substantial follow up (usually some form of legal proceedings).
- Materialize is not really focused on scaling because that is not really what it is for

Horizontal scalability is actually something that Materialize's underlying incremental computation engine (timely/differential dataflow) excels at. We're actively working to expose that tech in Materialize. (As in: many engineers, including me, are working on this full time; happy to answer questions!)

It is too bad that you got the wrong impression from that blog post! That blog post is about two years out of date. We're working on an updated roadmap blog post. The tl;dr is that we've since moved from step 3 on the roadmap ("Build a single-node database management system") to step 4 ("Build cloud-native elasticity and replication: Materialize Cloud").
You should try Mastodon, it's exactly how it works.
No...

If anything, this shows how ahead Deno is and how features like this in Node.js are too little too late.

Deno's standard library is just better than Node's, IMO, and it's going to be hard for Node to play catchup, if that's even practical. In summary, it doesn't contain the cruft of the pre-ES2015 era that is still present in Node, even though Node has tried working around it. The global objects in Deno better replicate the browser, so it takes a lot less effort to do essentially the same things you would in a browser but in a DOMless environment. Deno is slightly more performant in Node in some areas, although this is usually negligible, and I don't have the JSPerf test on hand.

I don't think Node is bad, by any means. If people are concerned about security... then don't use so many dependencies, or consider just not updating them until they've been demonstrated not to contain exploits; you don't actually need much code to essentially serve webpages.

But I think Deno, over time, will at least match Node in popularity, maybe even more, because it has "modern" approaches right out of the box and doesn't need to move as slowly as Node in order to maintain a legacy. Although Deno misses some things here and there, I've seen features get added very quickly over the last couple years; at this point, it would take Node much longer to do the same things for fear of breaking something and because it's simply much older code.

Then again, maybe I'll be wrong. Perhaps Node gets a second "big bang" and makes Deno obsolete. And I wouldn't care, either. All I want is a JavaScript language runtime with fewer concepts to learn that can also move quickly when something needs to be improved. If that ends up being Node, I'd be just as glad.
Rebooting (or "restarting the process" in a more limited case) does not fix the bugs, but is as a very effective workaround in a lot of cases.

Yes, a lot of bugs are never going to be fixed, and we'll have to restart the machine occasionally... but Phantom's alternative is forcing machine reformat on any bug.

You can do this today: just add a crash handler that will erase your entire hard disk. Do you think this will make software less buggy?
The Lost Art of Not Knowing Something
You talk like apple and samsung do work like you want.

Having some feature you wouldn't have broken, is it better or worse than not having it?

My S21 plus keep changing my default browser back to whatever the hell is Samsung Internet every hour. My iphone doesn't even have a browser alternative, only "skins"
Can't read German, but I'm going to assume the channels in question are full of neo-Nazis. If that's the case then this isn't anything particularly new; Germany's constitution explicitly denies freedom of speech to Nazis.

I don't find this particularly objectionable on it's own; Nazis and neo-Nazis never believed in free speech to begin with. However, we should still remain wary of false positives or scope creep beyond this narrow carve-out.
All they need now is some sort of ISP level filter to make sure nobody loses their privacy to US servers. They could call it a "Great Firewall" maybe.

Original author here. I have the following desiderata concerning MUA:

* it should be able to work offline (with a dedicated send/receive cycle),

* it should run fine on a Raspberry Pi (out of principle more than anything),

* it should favor plaintext mail,

* it should integrate well with all kinds of workflows and platforms (such as git email),

* it should be a veritable platform for experimentation (i.e., it should be malleable).

I think the case can be made that re-inventing the wheel can sometimes be beneficial. And e-mail to me seems rather 'underexposed' (maybe because most people think it has been a solved problem since at least Gmail).
Regardless of whether that is true, I'm not talking about the merits of Peterson's "anti-wokeness". Instead I'm pointing out that it is the foundational component of his following and he actively cultivates this.

It gets used. Because this secret chat does not save its history, it leaves no trace on the devive. So people who want to cheat on their partner, but know that their partner checks their mobile at times even installed telegram because of this feature (and they do not know what e2e means).

Surprisingly many people have this motivation. So many, that I know of persons who got problems with installing telegram, because their partner assumed - it was for this reason.
It's really as simple as that. The author tries hard to frame it as a learning experience of some sort, but what stuck for me was he could not argumentatively distance himself from the most obvious ulterior motives, making money, the gain from it.
This self-reflection is too shallow and comes across as an excuse imo. But still I appreciate a lot that he actually talks about it to create a discussion.
WhatsApp, Signal, and Telegram all have group chats and are very popular.

iMessage is not really a thing, despite iOS substantial marketshare.
Did I miss where he tells how he did this part?

Knowing I had left for a run was key to knowing when I had returned from a run, rather than a trip in the car for example.

From what I see he's assuming a run starts after the phone doesn't respond to ping requests for 5 minutes. How does that imply a run over a car trip?
If I "don't care if this succeeds" it's only ever one or two things: something that 'has to be done' (because of some external pressure/reason) or 'I'm learning so I can succeed elsewhere, elsehow'

Why would I otherwise want to put time and effort into something I don't care about? That's irrational
Thanks so much! You have no idea how happy your comment made me feel. After so many hours of endless coding, this is a breath of fresh air :)

Also, you are actually my ideal customer: a Figma user who wants to have an easy and fast way of managing his / her portfolio or personal site. I'm more than happy to answer any questions and keep this conversation going.
Again, I am sure enthusiasts exist. The original statement was:

> Do you not have curtains or a couch?

And what I'm skeptical of, specifically, is that the average woman has any idea what kind of cloth is on their couch, or shopped by that when they bought it, because it's probably not anything notable. I don't think "having a couch" means someone has the first clue what kind of cloth is on it, including most women. They might know the kind of cloth the hand-made pillows are, or a throw blanket, but not the upholstry, in most cases.

I think knowing what kind of cloth your couch is upholstered with, and shopping based on that, is probably more a rich-people thing than a women thing. Again, with exceptions for people who are just really into upholstry.

Curtains, sure. The idea of connecting cloth knowledge with upholstered furniture ownership just struck me as odd, because, again, I'm quite sure that most people, including women, don't get into that in detail, because it's not that important or interesting in the lowest 3 or 4 price tiers for furniture.

I definitely understand being surprised that men don't shop for curtains by cloth type (and so wondering how one could own curtains without knowing cloth-related terms), but not that we don't shop for furniture that way, because that's just normal for anyone outside, at least, the top 20% of income.
Does anybody know if there's a way to donate to gorhill/uBO development? I looked through the entire README and I don't think there's any link to send $ (just a "contribute to translation" link -- what a brilliant crowdsourcing solution!).

Does gorhill just do this for free because he's an amazing human being, or am I missing where I can buy him a coffee?

Been trying to make a more conscious effort to donate to meaningful causes this year, and I have to say uBO is one of the strongest forces for good on the internet I know.
Isn't the kernel very explicitly GPLv2 without auto upgrades?
> Sure, just look at all the decades of cigarette advertisements and the tobacco companies paying Hollywood movie studios to include their brands in films. That's engaging in subtle mass manipulation that resulted in untold millions of people suffering and dying.

As you more or less say in the next paragraph, you're answering a different question I think. Can advertising make you want things that are bad for you? Absolutely. But so can lots of things. I'm asking if the way a desire comes to be makes the desire good or bad, independently of whether the desire itself is good for you.

Deconstruction and reconstruction? Sounds like postmodernism.
Don't get me wrong - if you're perfectly happy with your lifestyle despite spending very little money, that's absolutely okay. My point is, you can not just overspend, you can also oversave - if you have the money to make your life better (really better, not wasting-money-better), you're on the wrong side of this.

That larger truck might be a waste of money, but it might also be easier to get into, save fuel and keep you safe in the case of a crash. Now, most people are clearly on the overspending side of things, but a large pile of cash won't make your corpse more comfortable either.
Well, the original SARS in 2003 had some interesting long term effects:

Some of the HK doctors that got infected had some of these long term effects, IIRC.

There's a reason why they don't fuck around in trying to limit the spread over there.
I rarely go to Taco Bell. I would never have known about the Quesarito if I didn't see an ad. I was very glad I did. This same thing has happened many times with many food items.

Same for seeing billboards for various places across the country. I love Taco John's, Taco Time, and Del Taco, and wouldn't have found them without advertising.

The ads' "manufactured demand" improved my life in these instances. Same for various other products in other instances.
Yeah I'm fine with apple doing this as long as they don't give in to the temptation to removing sandboxing and moving to ad revenue as primary revenue source (aka google). Soon as they do that I know the dream is over :)
That's not necessarily true. SSL/TLS does not prevent all MITM, it prevents unwanted MITM.

To be fair, I don't think you can install certificates on a Chromecast for example, so it might not be practically feasible for all devices, but a blanket "SSL makes that impossible" is not correct.
There are so many guns in the USA the police simply shoot first and ask questions later rather than trying to de-escalate and become victims in the process. We just had two cops shot dead in the Bronx responding to a domestic dispute between a middle aged man and his elderly mother. This is the grim reality we've been building in the USA.
Yes and no. I see too many people believing the calories burnt on their fitbit when the fitbit is assuming you're moving your legs as well

Generally speaking you don't move around and left your weight much when in VR, so while it's good to be active, it definitely doesn't get your heart pumping or burn as many calories as normal cardio exercises.

Does it matter? No mainstream party is going to legalize the Nazis again. At best they would look like they approve of nazis. Worst outcome is that nazis become political rivals.

My point is: technical debt from the point of view of Business is something that the developers themselves introduced or did not manage properly, so trying to make it look like something beyond their control ("we just found out that in the 70s someone put asbestos under the roof") will sound a bit unconvincing.

I don’t quite understand what the point of telegram is then? Is the only benefit it isn’t owned by Facebook?
If it were true as AdriaanvRossum said above that Simple Analytics data has "no identifiers" (taking that at face value for now) then that seems exactly analogous to those cash transactions someotherperson describes.

The claim that Bitcoin (or ETH, or lite, or tether, or Doge) will function in any way like a currency in the near or middle future is a meaningless pipe dream with no technical roadmap to meaningful adoption. You can talk about the hypothetical benefits of the chain and the ideological failing of a fiat currency, but none of that maps to the reality of the crypto space right now. You're either a willing con-man or an unwilling mark.

Some people will get fat from crypto. That doesn't change the fact that it is a cesspool.
> like AWS, Azure, Mailchimp, PayPal etc [...] No cloud services, no Office 365 or Google Workspace.

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but imho AWS, GCP and Azure are popular with startups because of their generous free credits, not because they are good tools for startups. As a startup you are typically better served by a DigitalOcean-level of complexity, and there are plenty of such offers in the EU (Hetzner Cloud, Gridscale, OVH, etc)

For Mailchimp you have plenty of competition, some of it in the EU (SendInBlue and Mailjet come to mind).

For payment processing there are also plenty of offers, Adyen is probably the biggest European alternative but there are countless smaller ones.

Microsoft Office 365 can be replaced by (shocker) Microsoft Office (the offline version). But most of your documents probably don't even contain PII and would be fine in Office 365 or Google Workplace. The exception is obviously email, but the market is flooded with E-Mail services from any country you like (and your preferred Hoster probably offers an email package too).

So I'm not really sure what part of the ecosystem we are missing here? European companies often have the smaller advertising budget and mindshare, but it isn't like they don't exist.
FB doesn't sell the data, they sell the ability for advertisers to advertise to groups. I'm not a fan of ad-driven models, but this is a lot different than selling data.

If you're using unencrypted messaging you should assume it's public. This is true of FB messenger and Telegram, but if I had to bet on what unencrypted content is more likely to be owned I'd bet on Telegram. This is mostly a bet on where the world's best security people are and the company culture.

Really though we shouldn't be relying on the benevolence of any of these company leaders, that's why people should use Signal or WhatsApp where the encryption means you don't have to (or Urbit where there is no central leader).
As someone who watches this space closely and recommends Cloudflare Tunnel regularly, this is fantastic news.

Do you know if it will be feasible to add Cloudflare tunneling to 3rd party Golang apps?
">It's false to create only two groups.

That claim is not even a half-truth."

Would you like to expand on that? There clearly are numerous different groups providing a variety of permutations of risk taking or risk avoiding actions.

">This completely ignores symmetry

... and this would not follow even if it were."

Would you like to explain this too? It appears to me that two artificial groups were formed and then used in a false dichotomy.

I'm not being pedantic. Attacking a large number of people in a heterogeneous, artificial group is disingenuous when a moderate to large number of the people in that group may not even exhibit the risks claimed, while wholly ignoring the risks posed by the "good" group.
The narcissistic personality at the center of Apple’s culture today is Apple itself. Even Cook speaks in near-reverential tones about the company he leads.

Most corporations try to do this in the long run; it’s arguably inherent in the concept of incorporation, which is etymologically and legally the creation of a new “person.”

Even if it starts with an iconic founder, in the long run the company itself must become the object of loyalty to survive. Comms, HR, and marketing teams spend tons of effort to create a corporate personality and culture. (Note the root of the word culture.) Apple famously set up their own “university” to develop and instill their culture.

Loyalty to the company, distrust of outsiders, personal adherence in a “mission”: these are not things specific to or invented by Apple. Although the specific vindictive tactic of hiding titles is one that I’ve not heard of before.
No problem, thanks

> This business model really needs to stop.

Let me offer a different perspective: I'm as little pro advertising as I am pro drugs, but I see both of them in a similar way: As having some negative consequences to society, but also being backed by a real world demand that doesn't stop at the borders of legality.

And the same way alcohol prohibition counter-intuitively had an even more negative effect on society, the same thing would happen with advertising.

I would rather tolerate transparent advertising with a clear, public framework and enforceable rules than I would want to tolerate a world where advertising demand creeps into every other form of communication.

We already live in a world where it's hard to trust any person or organization. I'm personally against drastically making that problem worse.
Thanks,

It'd help if the United States wasn't allowed to aggressively brain drain most of the rest of the world.
They're not "lying about their level". Contra the article, the term "associate" does not in fact mean "junior employee"; I can think of huge companies where everyone's formal title is "associate" regardless of seniority, in the same way that Bell Labs did MTS.

Further, nobody is "bending over backwards" to defend anybody; they're writing their own take on what happened. You're asked by the guidelines to assume good faith in other commenters.

"have" and "own" aren't always the same thing, especially in intent-based legal systems.

I can own a blue flashing light. I can operate it in my house. I can't operate it attached to my vehicle on a public road. There is a very high chance this is also true in your country/state. Context is king.

I think everyone was fine until some of the people who are against the Covid regulations started with comparing the vaccinations to the holocaust, wearing stars which resembled the "Judenstern" given out by the Nazis with the word "unvaccinated" on them to demontrations and alike.

You can do lots of crazy stuff and talk a lot of shit in Germany, but relavating the holocaust is off-bounds for good reason.
My comment wasn't really about the merits of central authorities vs multiple authorities (although I would fall on the side of preferring a single package repository than having to worry about many of them). It was about having two equivalent mechanisms for solving the remote-code-loading problem, regardless of where you're actually loading it from.
Microsoft has done the leg work for this already. They currently have a completely contained Azure environment in Germany. I think it was deployed to ensure compliance with german/EU health data protocols.

I have first hand experience of this, migrating between their global PaaS and the contained German one. The bulkheads are quite air-tight (much to my personal detriment).
If you're referring to the recent books like Maus being removed from the school curriculum in America, they were banned for things like containing nudity and rude words. From what I can tell from the auto-translated version of the article, these Telegram posts were removed in Germany for breaking German law. Whether you think the German law is correct is a different issue.
> Rent seeking (or rent-seeking) is an economic concept that occurs when an entity seeks to gain added wealth without any reciprocal contribution of productivity.

Are you really saying that Netflix offers no “contribution of productivity.”? Or that they don’t have any added value.

If you had said that the 30% App Store fee is “rent seeking”, I would agree with you.
Just for a moment imagine a world without any ads. I for one do not have to imagine that, but just have to remember back, when I grew up in the eastern block.

What you wanted to buy was available in the stores and you could always ask someone, if you needed something very special.

If an ad were merely a statement of existence - but that not what ads have become: "brand refresh", "pivot", "awareness", "emotion", or any other subtle or not so subtle message that wants to influence you. I see so many people driven to "buy" things they do not need and then "buy" again books on how to clean the mess up. From where I'm standing, this is all just very ridiculous at this point.

Note that I am not saying there is a free will, not at all, but hey, do I want to this endless mostly senseless stream of unneeded stuff let influence me or something a little more grounded?
