You would only believe that if you don't actually talk to your neighbors. In the real world (i.e. not the corporate media) most people have more moderate and nuanced viewpoints. Demonizing and alienating those people is not a winning political strategy.

This is, by the way, one reason why the Joe Rogan Experience podcast has been so amazingly popular. The host comes across as a moderate leftist, but he has guests from across the political spectrum and gives them a chance to fully explain their views instead of shouting at them. The corporate media are naturally horrified by this since it undermines their ability to drive ratings by pushing a false "red versus blue" narrative.
There are, in my opinion, two problems with that. The first is that it is very, very difficult for most people to view their own side objectively. The Russel conjugation comes to mind; "I am a freedom fighter, you are a rebel, he is a terrorist." The other problem is that often, calling out your own side's bad behavior feels like treachery. "When arguments become soldiers, to criticize your own sides' points is to stab your fellows in the back." Anyone who engages in that kind of criticism is likely to be ostracized as a traitor well before their criticisms are taken seriously. See, for example, the Hundred Flowers Campaign. I believe the book Scout Mindset by Julia Galef discusses ways around the first problem (I have not personally read the book), with the main thrust being that this is exceptionally difficult to train oneself to do and a mostly personal endeavor. For the second problem, I have no idea except to aspire to groups that welcome self-criticism.
Does Google have a reputation of shuttering their paid products?

I think synthetic fuels works better in large transport vehicles, like planes and cargo ships. These require hi-density fuels, and electrification of these do not work.

for personal vehicles, i think EV works well, as electricity generation is far more efficient than synthetic fuel generation, and battery at this weight scale and distance works great.

So you'd have a middle use-case - trucks and lorries - which i'm unsure if electrification works for. Presumably, it would, but only if charging stations are dotted around a lot more places, including remote areas.
I got into the whole outrage game for a couple years. Then I got bored of it and dropped out. Maybe a lot of other people will too.

> how does one actually know whether another or oneself is using good faith communication?

By what goal is to be achieved. That's how the article defines the two categories. In a nutshell, good faith communication has the goal of mutual understanding, whether it leads to "agreement" or to the other person doing what you want or not. Bad faith communication has the goal of getting the other person to do what you want, by hook or by crook.

> After reading this article, I almost left it feeling more hopeless, as if it were saying most people communicate with bad intention (bad faith)

I don't think that's true, nor do I think it was the intent of the article. I think most people try to communicate with good faith. But in the world now, with instant mass communication, the small minority of people who do communicate in bad faith can often dominate the communication process. I think one way of looking at the question the article is asking is how that can be fixed.

> I assume even the people acting in "bad faith" are acting out of "good faith"

As above, it's a matter of the goal the person is trying to achieve, not whether or not the person is sincere in their goal. I think most people who communicate in bad faith are perfectly sincere. They may even believe that they are doing something good by getting other people to do things those other people would not choose to do if they were communicated with in good faith.

I do think, though, that the choice of "good faith" and "bad faith" labels does have a reasonable basis: communicating with people to get them to do what you want by hook or by crook, not by convincing them through reasoned argument but just by manipulating them in whatever way works, is not a good thing to do. Even if you think you're doing it to achieve a good goal, human history shows that we humans don't work that way: we can't be trusted to use bad means to achieve good ends.
I think we are all a little anxious, and trigger happy. Our police, our politicians.

It's like as soon as something remotely similar to a movie they've seen happens everyone thinks, "omg it's happening!" Civil war is happening, just like in the movies. Time to invoke the emergency act.

The Let's Encrypt community also made some fun references to the Roadrunner cartoons in the early days.

(1) The reference implementation of the ACME server was originally going to be called Anvil, but was renamed to Boulder. (A later lightweight testing implementation is called Pebble.)

(2) A later ACME client was called "dehydrated", after, well, take a look: https://github.com/dehydrated-io/dehydrated

(3) I'm pretty sure I'm forgetting another roadrunner joke here somewhere

In the UK there’s a catch all for this called “driving without due care and attention”.
Besides really not liking the good/bad faith categorization as I described in another comment, another thing I think this article misses is the personal benefit of communicating more openly with someone else. I feel much more relaxed and proud when I open up and tell someone what I'm feeling and why I think I believe what I do than when I insult them for their beliefs. It may not "win" the argument and it may not even get them to open up, but it gets me to open up and I have seen so many benefits to that, even if the other person doesn't "play" with me.

> I think this page is a great definition of what is happening, but a poor prescription of what to do about it.

I strongly strongly agree. Notice how even in this, I'm not saying "you are 100% right", I'm still open to changing my perspective, and yes maybe partially it's because I find that even comments like this land better with the recipient when I express my perspective rather than assert a global truth, but mostly I feel much better saying it this way.

Anyway, I could talk about this stuff for days, it's what I do for work, teaching myself and others how to communicate to better resolve such conflict. Doesn't meant I'm "right" just means I spend a lotttt of time thinking about this stuff.
LE has compatibility issue with very old Android/OpenSSL. https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/production-chain-changes... Possibly Google's cert doesn't have the issue?
Well I was hinting at it, or the other similar systems (gn, buck, pants, etc.) - you end up needing a language-agnostic (or rather say, language-diverse system) that understand how these compilers / runtimes express output artifacts and actions. It's not always that easy (e.g. "virtual_includes" in bazel and `#pragma once` do not work well, but it's small price to pay (e.g. go back to #ifndef MY_HEADER_H #define it)).
Honestly it never even crossed our minds at the time of picking a 'smaller' path. The natural path was to continue scaling. It's only obvious with hindsight that there was another path.
That's just poor branding. Google Cloud Print was not part of Google Cloud Platform.

(I feel like Google just doesn't understand branding. I remember when they launched the Pixel C after the Chromebook Pixel, and it ran Android instead of ChromeOS. What was once a Chrome brand became an Android brand. I guess because Chrome was doing pretty well at the time, and Android just reminded people of slow phones that ran out of battery instantly. Sigh!)
When a conversation is stagnating in a cycle and you elevate it on a meta level, away from the original topic to that conversation and how it is going, you will not only display good faith but you may be able to find the traces of good faith in your opponent and maybe turn back to the original topic.

You cannot flip the table and still call it a game. Its not a game move when your intention is progress and not a rhetorical win.

Putin also tried to create EU like fiscal organization with countries around Rossia but no one was so stupid to trust Rossia justice and honesty - Rossia is dedicated to being parasite country.

Also Rossia example shows what happen when technical know-how is limited only to military (or mafia) - it fails. Then it need to be re-stolen, again, only for military becouse mafia in charge do not care about anybody else.

Something I've been wondering is how they handle ventilation with the push towards airtight houses. Co2 buildup is common in such environments. Do they implement heat exchanger ventilation systems or something like that?
Fox News came about in 1996. I remember before that, there was just Rush and co, and they were fringe on the radio. Fox when mainstream in the early 2000s and just snowballed slowly ever since. There was never a moment where extreme polarization just suddenly appeared. Rush in the early 1990s was saying f-nut stuff back then, too.
A coworker of mine works locally in $editor_of_choice (which is VS for C#, VSC for most others, some weird DB system for SQL), and has a window of Beyond Compare always on top; that allows him to see what files are different locally/remote and push them (he compiles/tests remotely). Might work for you too.

Another useful option, depends on your specifics, is the Plan 9 "cpu" command[0], available for Linux at [1]. It takes an unusual approach, which is IMHO superior for embedded machines, but which may work well for some other use cases (though not all).

I think the whole thing is super easy to use, if only for Go. I've had to recompile and patch few things, and I'm relatively unfamiliar with it, and with my little knowledge was able to get through (my main languages are C/C++ and C#, and did Java (+ blaze) while at google, but never touched anything else but Java there, though saw the light of how easy is to integrate between these languages, given enough time spent on making these rules work (it's not always easy, I'm still waiting for external dart/flutter rules, it's yet another system with it's own build mechanism))

I agree with the first half. For the second half, I think for beginners, the examples are very important. From this perspective, many Rust projects comes with examples:

https://github.com/RustAudio/vst-rs

Once following the readme, it is very easy to get it work in your own machine. Then beginners can play around the examples, tweaking parameters, etc. while learning new stuffs with books or online resources.

Rust audio has also got a very helpful Discord community where beginners can always ask questions.

For the GUI part, I am not an expert, but there are more and more Rust GUI libraries (egui, iced, druid, rui): among them, egui-rs and iced-rs can all be used for VST. Still, there are some examples to get started with.
To be fair, that was well longer than 5 years ago.

When someone posts completely wrong interpretations of events, a world view totally opposite reality and incompatible with the one you experience it’s really hard to think someone can actually be posting in good faith. And it’s not a case of blue dress gold dress sense type perception difference.

Yet there’s a good chunk of people posting incompatible realities, do you ever think that maybe it’s not them living in a mistaken reality but yours that are wrong. How does one test ones own views to be certain?

Do they ever wonder the same thing? If they aren’t posting in bad faith then surely they must wonder the same about you or I. How does one verify and test ones reality.

( you, I and they are all used in the general sense)
> What's missing from this article is how to protect yourself from bad faith actors.

I think that's because, at the level of society at large, nobody knows how to do that. That's the unsolved problem the article is describing.

At an individual level, you protect yourself from bad faith actors by refusing to interact with them once you become convinced that they're bad faith actors. But at the level of society, many of the bad faith actors are in positions where their actions have large scale consequences that will affect you whether you like it or not. So the individual solution doesn't work for that case.
The battle isn't always being fought in interparty electoral competition. The left-wing project to replace all traditional hierarchy with radical egalitarianism has been in motion in Western society since at least the French Revolution, with some elements appearing in the American Revolution and Protestant Reformation. The right-wing project to preserve the traditional order has been around for longer, at least since the merchant classes threatened the power of the old aristocracy. This conflict has been sometimes dominated and drowned out by more particular, parochial, and pressing disagreements. The US, and to a lesser extent, England, through liberal democracy were able to contain the jacobin forces much more than societies on the continent were. But a 100 year streak of leftist victories has basically put them on the cusp of completely eradicating the old order. Even today, a conservative's mindset has little in common with the thoughts of a monarchist from the late 18th century. Those ways of thinking have been eradicated by political force. Some have tried to revive it, but it is just a faint echo, like trying to recreate a song from a critic's review of it.

There's actually a fairly simple explanation for why a heliocentric solar system wasn't superior in antiquity or when Copernicus introduced it: in both the Ptolemaic and Copernican models, the orbits are circular and require complex "epicyclic" motion to account for observation.

A heliocentric model wasn't simpler and more obvious until Kepler introduced elliptical orbits, doing away with epicycles in the heliocentric model. Crucially, elliptical orbits didn't work for the Ptolemaic model. Suddenly, a heliocentric solar system seemed much more elegant and likely.

I also really dislike that you can literally push a window off screen. It is weird to me that you can push a window 99.99% off screen.

That said, I prefer Mac over windows. It is close enough to linux and has crazy good battery life. Now that I'm not using C++ anymore and mostly python the differences aren't too big.
I think the key thing here is that the question is not about changing a single person who acts in bad faith. Indeed that may be impossible. How you act may not have any affect on the specific person you’re engaging with, but it will have a (likely very small) affect on the community as a whole. Engage in good faith towards all and others may slowly start to act similarly. Engaged in bad faith and you may encourage others in the community to act the same way.

Another important thing: you may identify 98% of bad faith actors correctly, but that’s still 2% of people acting in good faith that you’ll polarize against your cause.

Opposition to homosexuality and racial integration did not disappear in America, but they substantially waned. Even the minority of people that privately hold opposite sentiments, they will not express them publicly for fear not just of public condemnation and private sanction but also legal liability.

Consider that in 2008, a majority of the country opposed gay marriage, but in 2022, a majority support and it is considered completely unacceptable to advocate for a return to the old order. That's what victory looks like. Consider too that in 1990, a majority of the country was still against interracial marriage. Today, those same people would probably deny they ever felt that way, maybe even convincing themselves of that lie. That's what winning looks like.

Today, a biological male can win women's sports competitions and a five year old can be recognized as transsexual. A robust majority of the country opposes it, but everyone outside of Republican electoral politics[1] is scared to put their face to any opposition to it. This is starting to look like final victory.

[1] And even then, many Republican governors have vetoed bills that would ban this.
If growing in the ocean is to be done, it's probably better to try increase the amount of food algae/plankton at the bottom of the chain.

Last i heard, there was some experiment in this area, where a "sterile" part of the ocean was studied, and found that iron is the limiting micro-nutrient. By spreading iron (or rust i guess?) in these dead areas of the ocean, it would trigger growth, which would create a lot more ocean life where none existed before.

But the long term consequences of doing this is unknown. And that's not to mention how to actually get the requisite amount of iron to those places.
Bill.com IPOed a while back, in December, 2019. However, they seem to have needed more funding after that, and took on a pile of debt:

> Subsequent to its IPO in December 2019, Bill.com completed three rounds of financing. The company closed an equity follow-on in June 2020, raising net proceeds of $308 million, a convertible debt offering in December 2020, raising net proceeds of $1.1 billion. In September 2021, Bill.com raised $1.9 billion in net proceeds through a concurrent offering of equity and convertible notes.[1]

Looks like a lot of this went towards two big acquisitions in 2021.[2]

I think the wholesale abolition of identity is probably too unpopular to be viable, and that the goal is accomplished with a sufficient reduction of identity. What counts as sufficient is anyone's guess, and probably too important to be left up to guesses, but I suspect that not allowing you to link an actual identity to the thing sufficiently dampens trust as to be sufficient.

If all you're risking is your karma by being outed as a deceiver, that's probably not enough for someone to trust that this is sufficient incentive to keep you honest. By extension, they no longer trust what you write.

That said, what you mean by untagged is what I meant by anonymous.
