Destroy aggregation - whether it's amazon or msft or airbnb or statism or whatever it's ultimately evil with the advance of technology. Codify trust reciprocation (objectives responded to with evidence) directly into every aspect of the network. Then aggregation becomes a middleman.

Windows won't support this model, neither with android or macos. Currently only linuxes have the inertia to play a role in this space.

I suspect that’s because they’re working on a full re-design to deliver something much smaller. I’m also waiting for this to upgrade from my homelab M1 Mini.
I understand you have a strong believe that public good is not for profit, but this simplistic view is patently wrong. Public good and profit are not two things contradictory to each other. It is just very common in the market that businesses serve both profit goal and public good. It is 90% about how the world improves in a market dominant system. There is something fundamentally wrong in your worldview of the society and the market. But hay, I don't think I can change your mind.

Mandating lowercase is good because it makes parsing faster.

Of course, there’s going to be some poorly coded client out there that ignores this rule and so everybody else will have to accommodate this half-assedness too.
Snowstorms in the north-east will frequently disrupt flights far more than trains. It's about 4 hours from Boston to New York, I'd take that over being delayed 2 days.
Talking about a "photon at rest" is kind of nonsensical. From any frame of reference, c is c, and you'd measure the photon moving at the same speed.
You can pretty much justify anything with the "greater good" slogan. Women wearing Burqas, greater good of lowering promiscuity and increasing family stability is how politicians justify it in the middle east.

Democracy is done in America if more people think the government controlling what people read and think is some sort of social good.

You can have good intentions, but still cause terrible things to happen.

In the last year we saw government's pushing experimental drug on healthy young people in order to add a few extra months of life to 75+ year olds with multiple health conditions, and the extremely obese. Locking down, destroying small business and causing serious food price inflation, that will send millions of people around the world into absolute poverty.
A drug that did not stop transmission, had pages worth of short-term side effects, and yet to be determined long term effects. One thing it did not due, was lower the 3x jabbed from catching covid, since they get infected now at highest rates now. How long before we go from "safe and effective" to "no one forced you to take it".

It really is debatable what if anything governments COVID policy accomplished.
Why shouldn't people be able to debate it?
> you wouldn't call customs intercepting a truck of illegally copied DVDs censorship

I might, depends on the context. Copyright laws can indeed result in censorship. Let's say those DVDs have an additional commentary track.

> But that isn't censorship, it's just stupid.

So when your IP address gets block in Canada for a year, regardless of what content or speech it was engaged in amd without any attempt to verify that you indeed were sharing content out of copyright, you aren't being censored? Come on.

Beryllium is fairly brittle as far as metals go, so a crack wouldn't be out of the question.
Ironically, this shows that we should be focusing more on test results and less on other factors, which is the opposite of the current movement.
You're talking about things that people think should be illegal. Nobody will punish you for visiting a library or rewinding a tape. What we are talking about are things that are actually illegal. You can be prosecuted or sued for copyright infringement by downloading torrents or illegally streaming.

The moral/ethical side is more murky depending on how you want to look at things. For example, for me personally there is a big difference between things like libraries (a copy was purchased and allows one showing at a time), a rewind lock (interference with how you use something you purchased), and duplication (streaming included). The previous ones required someone to purchase. Does it cut into sales? Sure. But someone still paid money for a true copy and they copy is a single instance. With duplication the scale is different. It can affect sales drastically and hurt the workers (not just the stars and greedy companies). Some people may feel the latter is unethical/immoral. I tend to buy used stuff. I also just don't buy stuff if I think it's too expensive. I haven run into any issues with Netflix either.
What amazes me about Gundam is that it came out in 1979, just 3 years after O'Neill wrote The High Frontier but it completely adopted the aesthetic of that book.

Wars between space colonists and the Earth were a theme in Heinlein's 1966 The Moon is a Harsh Mistress and Haldeman's 1981 Worlds which came out just after Gundam. In that time-frame though there had just been the big success of the 1977 Star Wars and the re-release of Space Battleship Yamato and everybody was trying to rush out science fiction movies and TV.

Looking back though, the giant robots seem more plausible than the O'Neill style space colonies with huge airspaces. On the moon you can make as much aluminum, glass, dirt shielding, and oxygen as you want. What it lacks is inert gases such as nitrogen, helium, argon or materials to make SF6. If you try to breathe pure O2 you will burn out, not fade away

Not sure how it is now, but back in the days it was a feature to have different hosts, as browsers would only ever open X connections per host. So if you spread your assets over a.example.com, b.example.com etc. it could load faster than if everything came from the same place.
I can heartily recommend anyone surprised by this to have a go on an e-bike. It's so much fun. I was pretty skeptical about the whole concept until I had a go on one. I had to refrain from going *wheeeeee*. I can easily see how the amount of added fun incentivizes cycling to the point of getting more exercise than on a regular bicycle.

Using FA as a CDN is not GDPR compliant, either.

Generally speaking using any public CDN is not GDPR compliant. If you _could_ self host the files, then you can not meet the necessity test required for any of the relevant legal basis in GDPR art 6(1).

Google Fonts and FA are worse, because the personal data is shipped off wholesale to the USA. Neither FA or Google (for fonts) offers a data processing agreement that would make it legal to use.
IIRC this isn’t actually allowed, but it isn’t disallowed either
It's lacking. Their explanation for the greedy algo is great, less so for every other. By the end of the article, their 'explanations' degrade to speed analogies.

Ahh, dirty reads when you need data integrity are dangerous. (They're fine for things like a UI, where the consumer of state is essentially transient.)

I'm not too familiar with your database, but I wonder if you could have a "read transaction" with such a short timeout that you could return a "try again soon" error to the cache? (The only time I dealt with dirty reads like this was Microsoft SQL, I suspect you're using something with very different transaction semantics or guarantees.)

In the FAANG interviews I've done you're never allowed to ask questions...? Maybe for clarification of the problem space, but not about the algorithm or the promise of a particular solution.

I would also be interested in what would be the alternative not in the cloud? AWS deployments can get complicated due to the IAM rules, networking rules, security groups. But if I told someone, bring up a stack like that on bare metal, and make it repeatable what would that be?

For those of us that have worked on systems pre-cloud it does feel sometimes that it was easier in the past. But if you went to explain to someone new what to do, you realize how much you are taking for granted the knowledge and effort involved. Also the long term maintenance.

Your website instructed the client to connect to Google, so yes, you are responsible for this passing data to a third party.

The user likely has no idea they contacted Google — it only happened because the code in your application executed it.

It's hardly like updates are being released deliberately to worsen battery life. The more features that get added, the more CPU cycles are used therefore battery power is consumed more quickly. This should be a surprise to no one, little less a technical audience like HN. Even the battery throttling saga a couple years ago was largely with good intentions (in that it's better to run the phone a bit slower than it is for it to power off at random due to voltage drops).

Apple can be accused of an awful lot but their support story for older devices is better than any other phone or tablet manufacturer out there bar none.

This is a weird article. Trying to definitively describe what millions of people did over 100’s of years with a binary “yes they preferred beer because water was unsafe” or no they didn’t seems like it would take hundreds if not 1000s of pages. Even the 14th century monk example saying they preferred water comes off as an exception that proves the rule type example. I’m not saying they’re wrong, but I guess I never thought that “medieval people preferred beer” myth meant all the people all the time either. Then they go on to seem to ridicule anyone who disagrees with them.

I understand that they have Reasons, but it sucks that my Core i3 laptop with 1TB SSD and 24GB RAM is deemed "too old" to run Windows 11 (by one CPU generation), when the current lineup of laptops at Best Buy have way worse specs.
File systems perform 2 main functions. The first is to allocate blocks and maintain the integrity of the data stream (file contents) of each file. While Didgets has a few algorithms that I think are superior for allocating and tracking extents for file contents; the benefits in this area are just a few percentage points at best (nothing to write home about).

The second is to create and maintain metadata about each file. This includes file names, date and time stamps, access permissions and extra metadata like tags. This is where Didgets excels greatly over conventional systems. We store file metadata completely different than file systems. Their designs are decades old and very inefficient in many cases.

Didgets uses the same key-value stores for attaching metadata tags to each file as we use to create columns in relational database tables. Finding files with certain tags is extremely fast as is just finding files of a certain type (e.g. documents or photos).
The article doesn't even mention TSMC, Capacity / Node improvement and wider market chip constraint while only looking at Apple's previous record or cycles.

TSMC already mentioned first 3nm revenue will be from 2023 and not 2022.
I don't think many models of divinity would consider this a well formed question because there would be nothing 'sub' (e,g under, beneath) divine order itself. The divine is often characterized as self-enduring, self-maintaining, and self-creating. This question is reasonable refutation of a God that is imagined to fundamentally be a 'person' who 'lives' somewhere though.

It's my feeling that the Hindu observation of infinite turtle dependence argues that the notion of divine dependence is ill-fated to begin with.

No one is naive here.

The person made a false assumption in their first paragraph, and then linked that false information to his second that is really not that relevant here.

If you read the article, it even states:

6. That didn't stop Bell, Rogers, and Quebecor, who went straight to the Federal Court in 2019, asking for an order against themselves to block a streaming service called GoldTV. They also asked the court to order other ISPs to do the same, including TekSavvy.

In addition, they have tried this twice before, through the Federal Government, and it didn't work:

2. For years, media companies in Canada have asked the government to use Internet filtering—or "site blocking"—to help enforce copyrights. In 2017, through a coalition called FairPlay, they asked the CRTC to create a site-blocking regime. They lost. https://crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2018/2018-384.htm

3. They made a similar pitch to the federal government committee reviewing the Copyright Act in 2018. I was there to oppose it. In its report, the INDU committee recommended studying a limited, copyright-specific injunction that balanced interests. https://www.ourcommons.ca/Content/Committee/421/INDU/Reports...

So to write that ALL IS CORRUPT and the Government is the baddie is unnecessary. These corporate people, and I certainly am not on their side, are just trying the numbers game. They will keep asking their lawyers to keep trying in order to restrict their product/service so they "make more money". I certainly don't agree with Rogers and Bell, but let's not mislead people here.

The name is a reference to an earlier (paper) collection of Greek texts from the 16th century, Henri Estienne's Thesaurus Graecae Linguae. Although Estienne was French, the commentary and the like were in Latin as that was the tradition in scholarly work at the time.

What type of protections?
edit:lay blame where it ought

Rarely have there been such obvious and one-sided manipulation of public source repos on strictly licensed code, as have been published by Apple Inc. It appears that they go out of their way to insult and dismiss any "power" over the code itself, like a steering committee especially, but as simple as an open repo maintainer.

There is simply no profit in making current, working source code available in the same way as a published book at a public library is.. and so there is infinite Chutzpah at Apple Inc to say, not our affair. There is no way that current active source code works the way it is supposed to, if you cannot find it, build it, change it and thereby learn it and apply it.

The solution to this is to simply not display anything while the page loads.
> If your IP is being blocked in a country due to a court order you are absolutely being censored.

Doubly so when taken shared hosting into consideration. I've still got old websites running with who-knows-what-else on old hosting accounts, all those sites sharing an IP address.
Distributing binaries (that run on any distribution) is not unpopular. Off the top of my head, Firefox, Blender, VSCode, and Arduino IDE are all distributed as simple tarballs with binaries + libraries inside. Many more applications are distributed as AppImages, which are not much more than self-extracting versions of those same tarballs.

It's very simple: build against a mature version of GlibC, and bundle everything else. You know, exactly like you'd do on Windows.

In Pennsylvania at least, that is handled by the filing of a provisional ballot followed by a court system. One challenge to that solution is that there are hard limits on how long it can take for the election to resolve, so it is possible for that window to close before an investigation on an allegation of voter fraud to complete, and if it cannot be proven that that provisional ballot should be counted, the ballot is discarded.

The recourse should a person's vote be stolen that way is proof that the vote was stolen followed by punishment for the thief, and that punishment can be fairly severe because vote tampering cannot be taken lightly given the impact it can have on the process itself.
We actually agree, hierarchies can exist and be good, they just need to be voluntary and not in the capitalist sense, where you can "voluntarily" choose between homelessness or wage slavery.

I won't exclude that Anarchy could eventually concretize though, who knows!
