Exactly. So YouTube no longer has his shows. Doesn't he have his own copies? Can't he post them wherever he wants?
The authors actually do briefly mention this concern in the section titled 3.7 Algorithm extensions (under Log truncation):

> However, in practice it is easy to truncate the log, because apply_op only examines the log prefix of operations whose timestamp is greater than that of the operation being applied. Thus, once it is known that all future operations will have a timestamp greater than t, then operations with timestamp t or less can be discarded from the log.

The main issue seems to be that we need to know about all the replicas that we want to be able to synchronize with - but I guess there isn't really a way around this.
It takes a surprising amount of insight to remove all the extraneous information from a drawing, bringing it to its essence. That's what makes your drawings, although appearing simple, so good.

P.S. Scott Adams has talked about using the same technique for the Dilbert comics.
Actually they worked to deliver high quality content on anything which didn't directly impinge on Russian interests. Granted, they did it to give their propaganda more respectability. But most of it was not propaganda.

It can be thought of as the Russian attempt to create an equivalent to Al-Jazeera and the BBC.
Free speech absolutism has literally never been a thing anywhere on this planet at any time in the history of the world because it is neither thoughtful nor practical.
Seriously, this is a direct result of Amazon failing to prioritize this. First off, blaming the customer for calling the architecture out as being bad is crazy. The customer has no say in the architecture - it's all on Amazon.

They're free to keep using Google if they want. My grandmother preferred AOL for many years after its prime. No shame in that.

Well done. Can't wait for further chapters.

I think a table of contents is warranted. Even if it just for 3 or 4 chapters.
Seems like a great read. Will this touch on the OSI model? I'm guilty that I don't know this yet at a deeper level.
The reduce of population is not the effect of the policy, but the effect of economic growth. It would have happened without the policy. On the other hand, the policy created tons of horrible human rights violations, such as forced abortion against the mother’s will and gave her the dead body of her child. http://funtobebad.blogspot.com/2012/06/china-forces-seven-mo...

Not everything in RT is propaganda, indeed. The Spanish language edition is pretty good, and its affiliated podcasts such as Ahi Les Va are definitely good and are very insightful about Spanish language events and politics.

All of it has been blocked/blacklisted. Very sad.
Okay, 5G is obviously better than LTE for people who needs a better wireless experience, or for people who does not have wired connections.

But my question is, is it significant enough to change industries? In case of LTE, we finally have reliable bandwidth to watch Youtube and Twitch. Even those social media have existed before LTE, but I believe they exploded since LTE.

Then what about 5G? A lot of marketing said 5G is needed for VR, MR, AI, Autonomous driving, and etc. But did they really need 5G?
The permitting process is essentially, apply for a permit, the city has 30 days to make aesthetic suggestions and cannot deny the permit.

In my city they are placed in all sorts of bizarre locations that the zoning board would not approve such as, in the middle of lawns, within 8 feet of an existing pole owned by a competing utility, in the middle of a sidewalk, etc.

So you agree: it's bullshit.

No, it's just bullshit. Musk's strategy is to keep telling bigger lies because there are always more suckers to fleece. His latest bullshit is the Tesla Bot.
There are two points to make here:

1. If you're paying attention, you know this will happen at some point. Archive your own shit, because Google has made it more than clear there's no guarantee they'll do it for you forever.

2. This idea that you're being deplatformed or marginalised because years of your archives are no longer available in a free and easily accessible format from someone else is not supported by call outs to MLK, Malcolm X, etc. Even if you accept the idea that they had free and unfettered access to public broadcasting (ha!), there was absolutely no easy way to get access to the archives of that on demand! The speakers themselves, and their organisations, had to manage that.

People who think they're entitled to free unfettered video hosting on YouTube are dreaming. There's no historic precedent to indicate that it should be so, and YouTube has made it very clear that they can and will bounce you whenever they like. As of today, you are entitled to free speech, but no one has to give you their soapbox to stand on.

I think there's a valid conversation to be had about whether that's how it should be, but I don't think this article is that.
> Also think carefully about why big cities are growing everywhere and villages, towns and small cities are struggling.

That’s not entirely accurate. People are clearing out of urban cores for other areas, and are clearly choosing lower density locales when their income situation affords it (whether that’s remote work or retirement income streams from a combination of social security and investment income). Florida and Texas have grown by about 200k people in the last year.

> “The patterns we’ve observed in domestic migration shifted in 2021,” said Dr. Christine Hartley, assistant division chief for estimates and projections in the Census Bureau’s Population Division. “Even though over time we’ve seen a higher number of counties with natural decrease and net international migration continuing to decline, in the past year, the contribution of domestic migration counteracted these trends so there were actually more counties growing than losing population.”
In many cases, there was a shift from larger, more populous counties to medium and smaller ones. These patterns contributed to population increases in 1,822 counties (58.0%), while 1,313 (41.8%) lost residents, and eight (0.3%) saw no change in population.

> Florida trailed only Texas in population increases from 2020 to 2021, while the nation had the slowest growth rate in its history, according to information released Tuesday by the U.S. Census Bureau.

> Florida grew by 211,196 residents from July 1, 2020, to July 1, 2021, to a population of 21,781,128, the census estimates show. Texas grew by an estimated 310,288 residents to a population of 29,527,941.

Doesn't the US make a point that even Nazi speech is protected, as long as they don't directly incite violence or commit violent acts? How come RT is less protected than Nazi speech, then?

Before you claim "they do incite violence" -- no: many of the now censored podcasts like Ahí Les Va never incited violence.

Suburban counties are heavily subsidized in a number of ways. You can't really compare migration flows for that kind of analysis

It helps if you use bitmap fonts. They look crisp and clean at small sizes and lower resolutions. They make other fonts look blurry by comparison. The trend of scaling seems to largely be because of people using those blurry fonts. I'd rather have crisp fonts and more screen real estate than have to deal with scaling and end up with as much space as before.
A major (Super Bowl advertising) SaaS vendor sprang a single Leetcode interview on me after an informal discussion with a VP, it was introduced as “have a chat with senior engineers”. I take 30 mins to solve it. The company they ghosted me, despite my having 3 former colleagues in the same division I was interviewing in. Eventually one of my former colleagues divines that they were disappointed it took me that long.

Definitely happens.

Google was definitely better than the algorithmic crawlers. But Yahoo often still had gems for a while, a few years maybe, before they gave up. It's too bad.
> No, I meant exactly what I said.

Ah, well then I will continue to be puzzled by your response - i.e. why you think any of the classical "economists" you've named are so much better qualified than Marx to critique Malthus (going back to the original premise of this discussion).

Adam Smith is, of course, famous for being the first "economist," but his legacy isn't the result of him being particularly accurate (nor are his actual economic views very clear or citation-worthy). What did Bastiat even produce that could be cited by economists today? Of course the broken window fallacy is popular in Econ. 101 textbooks, as well as with the Austrians and in the free-market blogosphere, but it's not citable research. Ricardo was a seminal figure in the development of modern economic thought, but he was also a product of his era who was wildly wrong about lots of things. Moreover, Marx was familiar with his work, both adopting and critiquing parts of it throughout his career, so it seems a bit peculiar to lionize Ricardo while portraying Marx as incapable of offering a critique of Malthus.
So many people use YouTube as their archive - particularly if they're naive about their relationship with YouTube. He may not have his own copies.

This doesn't necessarily imply total naivety - plenty of journalists would be used to it being the publisher's role to archive the work, not their own.
So a self proclaimed critic of American imperialism and corporate control is complaining that a trillion dollar American corporation won't help him spread his message.

No, you haven't been "disappeared". Your content still exists. YouTube just doesn't owe you anything. Go find somewhere else to distribute it.

In fact try being a free thinker in your beloved Russia and see how far that gets you.
Yes. Been following Hassan since the late 80s and this is important stuff. Understanding of cult mind control is central to understanding so much going on today as well as things that have gone on for decades.

> My parents were right. I am right. This majority of people who want me to chop my kids off at the knees are wrong.

I’m glad they were the right parents for you.

I’m a parent too, and I wouldn’t be ready to call a parent right or wrong based on being on either side of those situations.

Every child is different. There are certainly some that thrive with more freedom and others that need more structure and direct participation.

Also, every time and region is different. I’d hope people parent differently in high crime areas vs. low crime areas. And pedestrian friendly / public transportation friendly areas vs. not.

I agree that “dangerous” is a subjective metric, and that’s why morally good parenting feels to me more like a spectrum than an absolute.
I have not, and I'll end up with a black eye for procrastinating on that.

It seemed very well written, until he started mentioning skin color. That literally has close to no merit. Are some border guards racist? Of course. Are some people of color just plain opportunists? YES.. We literally have African students who were studying in Ukraine, who evacuated to France because of the war, who are claiming that due to racism they won't be allowed to leave France to go to the UK as a refugee.

Nobody would on normal circumstances be allowed to leave a safe European country and claim asylum in another safe European country. Regardless of the skin of your color. Ukrainians have been granted residency for upwards three years in Europe on humanitarian grounds, and they are expected to return home after the war is over.

Agreed. They are not impartial about Russia, but their coverage of, say, Latin America was pretty good quality.

"Not being impartial about Russia" isn't a crime. Even not being truthful about Russia isn't a crime. If it were, a lot of mainstream Western media conglomerates should be banned.

I really don't get the need to block access to any news channel or conglomerate, no matter who funds them or what's their agenda. I don't want Fox News to be banned, either.
It’s immaterial if the long term economics of the suburbs or rural living is unsustainable; that’s where people are moving today, and the economics issue will be someone else’s problem in 20-30 years (metro Detroit comes to mind).

Complaining about wide swaths of the population migrating to medium to low density suburbs and exurbs is like fighting the Fed. You can’t. Builders build, buyers buy and migrate, and you’re stuck with the resulting development.

Tangentially, StrongTowns’ efforts (which argues against sprawl) is like arguing with someone who is racking up credit card debt and has no plans to pay it back. People want their low density housing and will fight you for it (see California for example, and their efforts to try to make upzoning possible at scale), and as long as one lives in a democratic country, you can move to and live what your economic means will support.

Are you sure you’re on 5G? Or maybe you’re quite far from a tower with a weak signal?

I’ve used both Vodafone and Three 5G in London and never see speeds that low with a good 5G signal. Certainly never below 100 Mbps, and rarely below 200, even at peak times. Rarely below 400 on Three, and often as high as 800!

On Vodafone even the 4G network is usually 30+ Mbps. But Three’s 4G is absolutely awful.

It's not less protected. RT has the same protection from the state and the judicial system as Nazi speech does. RTs problem isn't that their speech isn't protected, it's that others refuse to help them distribute it - which is generally their legal right (and if they broke contracts saying otherwise in the process, RT is free to sue them).

It's very true in my experience, and we've looked pretty hard at all the options. Thanks for the offer of the slides, I have first hand experience with this at scale.

It certainly depends a lot on how sophisticated your autoscaling is and how closely you're able to follow demand to limit waste, how well you can manage per-host utilization, whether you are CPU or memory bound, and lots of other factors. But even at truly massive scale the cloud hosting option can be very competitive without nearly as much management overhead.
