While a lot of people here celebrate this, I find it extremely concerning that the census is mandatory on the basis that the answers are private only to have that private information made public down the line.

The excuse "70 years later most people are dead" is wrong in the case of Jo Biden: https://1950census.archives.gov/search/?county=Scranton%2C%2...

My hope is that in the light of Russian actions in Ukraine, the western world will review its attitude towards Russian/Soviet role in the context of WW2. So far the blame on starting WW2 was put almost solely on Nazi Germany, and painting Soviets almost as victims only. That is understandable, since they happened to be on the winners side, and therefore could write the history as they seem to fit for them. It is often forgotten that Soviets and Nazis agreed to divide Europe when they signed Molotov-Ribbentrop pact on August 23, 1939 [1], after which Nazis promptly invaded Poland a week later [2] and Soviets did so just weeks weeks after that. [3]. And while Germany was busy waging war on its western front [4], Soviets went on attacking Finland [5] and occupying Baltics [6].

Has anyone done a rigorous comparison between the on-by-default telemetry in Chrome, Edge, and Firefox? Since they all have it and all use similar words, I'm curious what the differences really are (outside of ideological preference for who gets your data).
> that disturbs voltage-gated cell-membrane ion-channels?

You're begging the question.

You could have more easily stated your opinion as "low frequency radio waves disturb cells". Which is fundamentally false. There are lots of radio-waves being used around the world: RADAR systems, Radio-headquarter units... as well as people who live nearby radio-towers (TV, AM Radio, FM Radio), and cell phones.

Do you think WW2 units fielded with SCR-300 (World War 2 backpack radio) had increased amounts of cell membrane damage associated with them?

> when debugging, many programmers prefer to make small changes to their code (tweaks) and run it again to see if the bug is fixed rather than spending the energy to create a good mental model of the problem

Then there's the feeling you get after you have done a dozen of fixes to your code and none of them fixed the problem which got you started until you realize that you were debugging the wrong file. There was so much room for improvement.

If you just want to write, I'd go with wordpress and then syndicate to medium. I don't know if you can syndicate to substack.

Set up a mailchimp mailing list account and have the RSS feed publish a newsletter.

You didn't mention wanting to monetize your content, but if you do, then that's when I'd look at substack. In my experience, it's far easier to monetize your content by showing proof of authority for a better job or consulting than by selling access to knowledge. But your niche may be more monetizable than my experience.
That's not the correct comparison. Household income often includes two incomes, which is going to bring the value up. Your same link says the median earnings for a male individual is $61,417. Not significantly less, but this distinction is often important.

I too wondered about how switching away from Windows would impact my access to games. My earliest memories are about games. My entire childhood was spent playing games, to the detriment of any other activity. My first non-burger-flipping job was in the gaming industry. Games are constantly on my mind. I love video games. But today, in practice, I don't miss any Windows-only games.

The first observation is that we're in a golden age of video gaming. There are so many quality games coming out, for every platform, that you could spend the rest of your life playing only the games available today and barely even make a dent in the backlog. The world has too many games as it is (which isn't a bad thing, to be clear).

The second observation is that, even though there are so many objectively high-quality games, I've become bored of almost all of them. Almost none of them have anything new to offer, and are, at best, refinements on existing formulas. Now that I'm older, I've seen all the formulas. For younger people, maybe they would suffer from not getting to have some formative experience in some Windows-only game. But I've put in my 10,000 hours, twice over, making me an expert in video games, and in my expert opinion I'm not missing out.
You can run that stuff if on Windows in Sandboxie or if on Linux containerized. For example I run Steam in an LXD container.

Apart from the PDF32000_2008.pdf (the ISO version), Adobe used to have a pdf_reference_1-7.pdf at https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/pdf/pdf_ref... which is the version before it got ISO-ized. The ISO version is "substantially the same" except for typesetting and small differences in wording, but I found the Adobe version much more of a pleasure to read. Comparing them is a good exercise in how much these small differences matter.
The method I try to use with the kid is to involve her in what I’m doing, and enable and encourage playing at being an adult. That translates a lot into doing some of the housework. Other than that I try to avoid rewards for work, but I do a “no doing the thing you want until you do the thing you need to do” rule. So some amount of work needs to get done before TV time, but it is a fine line to walk to make sure the reward doesn’t ruin intrinsic motivation.
>Smart Contracts were mentioned by Nick Szabo in 1997

And the term and concept were not popularized until Ethereum in 2014. I never heard anyone commonly refer to bitcoin scripting as smart contracts.

>Yes I would like that ability please. What are the reasons they don't?

There are some already mentioned in other comments here so I won't repeat them. If you want a full response, you should ask them. But if you must know, a lot of existing trading platforms and payment systems do already give you this ability in some form, no blockchains are required at all.

>in its /outcome/, fundamentally different from the existing bank network. It is one where an Iranian teenager can design a financial protocol on equal terms to Goldman Sachs. This is a desirable feature.

I'm sorry but no, this also doesn't make any sense and there are no desirable features or different outcomes here. From a starting position the main difference between the teenager and Goldman Sachs is the teenager doesn't have billions of dollars in capital. Everything else is technical minutiae. If the suggestion here is that the teenager can somehow take out an unsecured billion dollar loan in ETH, that's not a desirable or even functional financial system at all.

I mean seriously here. If you want to make real investments in businesses run by teenagers and other young entrepreneurs I think that's great. You don't need to blockchains to do that. They provide no useful features. I could go into extreme detail here as to why this is the case.

>This design brings with it other consequences. It is simply part of the the nature of the thing.

No it does not and no it is not, this is more terribly wrong mythical thinking that I hear people repeating. The design is not set in stone and there is no "nature" to it. Like any money system, it is designed by humans to further a certain goal and it absolutely does not have to have any particular consequences. It doesn't have to make fraud as easy as it does, but it was purposely designed to be that way because the goal is explicitly to avoid regulations.

> building forced-labor concentration camps all across Ukraine, as Nazi Germany did in Poland

There's reports of Russia extracting hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians to camps within Russian borders. We don't know the exact scale or nature of these camps yet.

Ah, whataboutism. We're not doing shit about one terrible situation, so we shouldn't do shit about any terrible situation.

Most likely they have internal tooling to manage all that.
I've done some reading in this area, but am not a quality control expert or statistician. Something I've noticed, especially in the writings of Deming, is that it's not just about the math, but also about how the workplace is managed, that matters. Deming wanted to make it so that the regular factory or office workers could proactively develop and test quality improvements themselves, as part of their regular work. This required finding techniques, such as graphing, that worked most of the time but didn't require math or access to a computer. That's the reason for the emphasis on graphical methods and manual calculations.

Naturally, management saw it differently. ;-)

how does that work? do people forgive you, does the relationship/friendship return to what it was before? do you say "I made a mistake" or some phrase similar to "I'm sorry"?
For this to matter there will have to be a turning point event that causes masses of people to re-think their privacy. The NSA reveal didn’t do much because nobody was financially or socially affected; maybe if the dataset itself was leaked and anyone could search it, we’d see real repercussions and changes made to stop any sort of surveillance (think the Congresspeople being personally affected by the data leak), but that didn’t happen. The only thing that comes close is the Equifax breach, and no citizen can avoid working with them with how everything from home purchases/apartment leases to auto loans relies on their databases.
"Man on the street" interviews are not very interesting. I was referring to the Russian leadership perspective.
I think that's what they're referring to, www.helium.com.

"Mining HNT with Hotspots is done via radio technology, not expensive or wasteful GPUs. … Hotspots work together to form a new global wireless network and undertake ‘Proof-of-Coverage’."

"Tokens & Data Credits: The network uses two units of exchange: HNT, a new cryptocurrency, and Data Credits.
Proof-of-Coverage: Our novel proof-of-work algorithm enables Hotspots to be rewarded trustlessly.
Helium LongFi: LongFi combines the low-power, long-range LoRaWAN wireless protocol with the Helium Blockchain."

I get the impression is it's to create a cryptocurrency motivation for providing good network coverage. I don't get how it works but assume, like all things involving blockchain, there are externalities or unintended effects that make it not a good solution.
I’ve heard it used in conversation previously, fwiw.
> That's true, but those are features you'll want anyway.

I mean sure, people WANT them. Generally that's not why they are buying budget Vizio TVs though, it's because they are low cost. The tradeoff is they don't do all of these things. Get a normal TV that does and suddenly the price differential is going to change dramatically.

> The NVIDIA Shield is actually perfectly ad-free in my experience (I've got the Shield 2019 non-pro), but the recent Android update forced some ads on the new Google TV launcher (luckily you can disable that just fine). I'm not sure what you mean regarding ads otherwise.

Well, as you say, when you turn on the device the first thing you get is home screen ads. Taking that back the first thing you get when you turn it on is offers for sponsored apps and then some pre-installed ones anyways, after that initial setup you get home screen ads when you turn it on. Then you get whatever ads are in the service apps themselves. Take for example the default apps Amazon Prime and Hulu, the former gives in app banner ads for paid items based on your ad profile and the latter will push anything from TV like ads down to just service upgrade tie ins depending on your subscription level.

> That's actually a bad recommendation, because then you'll still have to deal with the painfully slow startup times of a smart TV whenever you want to watch content

I recommend either turning the TV on at the store or watching a review before buying it. The TVs I have display the picture quicker than my pg32uqx gaming monitor but there are many TVs that won't. Similarly there are many monitors with garbage initialization times as well. Both monitor and TV are allowed to enter deep sleep mode in my case rather than hard power off, each was a god awful wait otherwise.

> and the TV actually modifying the image (most cheaper TVs don't offer a mode that avoids sharpening/softening/interpolating/color correcting/etc). And regular TVs often don't allow color calibration with an external probe either.

I recently got a dirt cheap $300 43" 4k TV for the Niece/Nephew recently, game mode and a few settings disabled most of the processing. As far as color calibration with an external probe... refer back to the price, I'm not expecting the display pass HDR1000 validation with a 98%+ wide gamut accuracy I'm expecting it to not be $900 and it's not just default built in ads removing 2/3 of the price it's the real market space differentiator - cut corners to save cost.
> Explicit width types have better defined behavior.

Integers in old JavaScript have an explicit width: 32 bits.

> JavaScript doesn't so much have integers as reals.

There is only one Number type, but it supports integers and integer operations, including two's-complement.

> JavaScript has exceptionally weak typing

So does C.
The last thing I bought that fits this description was a new pair of ski goggles. The cheap $20 Chinese ones work great as far as I can tell. The local stores start at around $150. Am I missing something? I had a lot of fun with the $130 of easy money.

Your recording shows the first issue from the OP (Bing telling you that "you don't need to download Firefox").

You haven't experienced the rest of the issues because in your recording you haven't actually tried to install and use Firefox.
Nah dude. Northeast born, raised, and living. I apologize whenever I'm in the wrong out of realization and empathy, as do others.

Self absorbed douchebags are everywhere in the world unfortunately. If you encounter people like that, it's just a sign that they're a bad bunch.
I've gotten into a few arguments with friends over the years about this way of thinking. I've always felt the same way. I tend to undercharge my labor and sell things for cheaper than they should be according to people closest to me. I pay my subcontractors more than they should be apparently.

I understand capturing as much value as possible, but that's not in the cards for me. I feel as long as I make enough money to be happy, that's ok. Everyone tells me I'm dumb so I'm probably hurting myself, but I really appreciate Albini's insistence not to take so much money.
I see nothing here that is minimalistic or different.

First of all, having a dark mode by default is not minimalistic.

This is part of a larger divide between "childhood" and "real life" that we set up to a great extent in the US. Childhood innocence is fetishized in the US in a particular way, edging very much into what we allow to be taught in schools or consider inappropriate in schools. There is a deep emphasis on trying to not have kids feel bad and adults project all kinds of their own s*(& on that.

It contrasts with a different point of view, that kids are just people, and people need to 1) take part in chores and work to make life function, and 2) sometimes feel bad because life is hard (either feel bad because they messed up, or because something happened to someone else). Chores can be fun, chores can be a drag, attitude matters -- but in the end food needs to be cooked and dishes need to be cleaned, no way around that. I think our culture in the US tries to avoid these realities and wants children to live a dream. From my point of view, though, it is a gesture of respect to include my child in the important work of running a house. Moreover, this child will be better-prepared for life if they can prepare food, manage a budget, fix clothing and mechanical problems, build some basic items, etc. I met too many folks in college who couldn't cook rice or wash their own laundry. That is not a setup for success. You can have a lot more fun if you can make a fancy ramen dinner and have your friends over to your crappy apartment that is decently furnished because you can manage curtains and bookshelves than if you need to pay $$ for all of the above. I have as much book learning as a person in the US can expect to have, but I really respect the lessons I learned from my elders about cooking, cleaning, preparing items from nature/fabric/wood, fixing stuff. Those lessons came from childhood involvement in chores. They carried over quite well to an engineering school education and then into the corporate world (see "tech debt").

My kid spent the weekend playing, learning how to change tires on the car, mixing pizza dough and getting toppings together, cleaning the living room, watching Disney music videos (no no no), and planting seeds for our seed starting. Just do stuff as part of life and include the kid to the extent they can participate.
That may or may not be true in general, but individuals can still make a good life for themselves. Education is usually they key (there are always exceptions). As older people retire, people move up in companies. There will be and are people of your exact generation and age moving up and making a good living. You can do it too.
Lead by example. If you want your kids to behave in a certain way, behave that way yourself.

Why is everyone acting like this was real? The security was briefed about it and it was obviously staged, the fake slap motion is extremely recognizable. Not having retakes and good camera angles makes it even more obvious.

If someone were physically assaulted while announcing something live they wouldn't smile at the audience and say "oh wow <x> just slapped the shit out of me." There would be chaos and security and that would probably be the end of the event.

I watched the video and I immediately regretted it. IMO this was mostly just a trick to get people to care about whatever event that was in some way as the industry behind it needs it.

EDIT: What the hell? Down votes? I hate complaining about them but how does this not contribute to the discussion? No one even argues against any of this. I'd wonder if people were being payed to do it but it's such a slow trickle it seems legitimate.

Either I'm losing my mind or half the developed world is.
