I agree. What we have is not working.

Perhaps. I think society should just get over this sort of thing. People fuck each other- imagine that! But as long as society wants to use evidence of that against you it's still harmful for the victim unfortunately.
How do you know an actor or actress is not performing in a shoot because they were forced to? How do you know the editor hasn't cut out the parts where the model revoked consent between shots? You'll have to review the entire making-off process and confidential interviews with all participants to find out that the people on camera actually consented or were merely forced to do so.

Then there is porn which specifically focuses on vulnerability, humiliation, power balances, trust, you name it.

I don't think most porn is nonconsensual, especially not most professional grade stuff, but I know for sure there is a percentage of "consentual" porn that's actually based on faked or revoked consent because human traffickers can make big money on platforms like Pornhub and Onlyfans. It's the only logical conclusion, you don't need to be a criminal mastermind to think of this.

The legal definition of consent and exploitation is the easy part: there is no consent until it's freely given, and consent can be retracted at any point. Any non-consensual activity is abuse and exploitation. Easy peasy, covers pretty much everything. The verification process is where the actual problem lies. You obviously can't have people sign a document (because people can easily be coerced). Even in full production pornos where the people on screen seemed professionals doing their job, produced by dedicated companies and sold to the public on VHS tapes, turned out to be rape years after the fact, and people who bought those might never find out.

It's a practically unsolvable problem.
This is funny. But when will the day come that we can't make them look ridiculous, but yet they are still not reliable -- and yet too many will be looking to them for guidance on life's big questions? Thus this is funny, but also sobering.
Hey, 3 > 0.

I live in Belgium, and at least here that's not true at all. People drive to the south during holidays. South of France, Spain, Italy, ... . And people from the Netherlands do even bigger distances than that, mostly with their camper. And when they don't drive, guess what we/they use: not trains, airplanes. Ryanair is really cheap on some flights.

For myself, my wife is from Slovakia, so every year I drive at least once there (1200km). I can do that in 1 day with getting gas in the middle. My wife takes the plane with our youngest one. The reason I drive is because I take a lot of stuff, and want a big car there.
If I wouldn't take the car (which sometimes happens), I take the plane, it's really fast. I don't want to imagine how long the train would take me, and how many times I have to switch...
What makes you think their father is a sanctioned person? It's not very likely, given the number of sanctioned persons vs. the number of Russians.
Using NAT with IPv6 betrays a lack of understanding with how it’s supposed to be used, and a stubborn continuation of IPv4 kludges.

Multiple addresses/prefixes are a required component for IPv6 to function, which I suspect is often the biggest source of misunderstanding from legacy IP competency.

If you need a stable prefix for a host, use a ULA or your own GUA. If you need to provide services from 2 or more upstream networks, configure the host with addresses from each of the delegated prefixes from those networks. If you need to do all of the above, there’s nothing preventing you from configuring them all simultaneously. You can even use the IP and routing stack to provide selective service access and trust thresholds.

Prefix mobility is something that should have been anticipated when IPv6 was being hashed out, and would have made many things much easier, but it’s far from critical, and gives IPvA an easy killer use case.
To many cryptocurrency enthusiasts, the fact that such an entity does not govern cryptocurrency is one of its main appeals. They're indeed different beasts but both lack an "intrinsic value": their value is entirely derived from the belief that they can be traded for something else eventually.

The last I heard, this form of liquid breathing may have use for premature babies. The concept is that their lungs may better handle liquid than air, so long as they don't start breathing air. It would require a respirator that pumps liquid, a tricky practical problem.
Not quite 20%, but I got slapped around on crypto Twitter by a blue check account for suggesting that supposed 15% returns were not risk-free. https://twitter.com/ErikVoorhees/status/1466802265956577283

If the answer is that they don’t have faith they can get the redemptions to cover their positions that’s also breaking the peg.

That's a decent use case for real stablecoins, not for something that can go up and down 20% within a few hours
It's actually "tovarishch" in Russian, not "comrade". Comrade is Spanish. If you're going to take lazy cheap shots, at least get it right.

If they were preventing deposits of BTC, it would prevent people from selling.
As someone who is gay, anyone who tells me that kink should not belong at pride can fuck right off.

Pride is OUR event, I don't give a rats ass about your children showing up. Do not tell ME how to celebrate our history.

Trying to remove Kink from pride ignores the history of our community. You are trying to tell me what my sexuality should be.

Edit: Sorry for the language but this is a particular hot topic for me and I will not take any of it.

There are three types of violent crime associated with drugs, 1) crime to obtain money for a drug habit, 2) crime as result of the drug trade, 3) crime while under the influence (dwi/traffic fatalities, assaults, etc)

Ok, but obviously when I say 5 years I mean from the start of development of the language not from when it is given 1.0 status. Is it your contention that the count to 5 years should start from when language creators say it is at 1.0 - if so I think 5 years is way over the line for when people should be saying they are rewriting projects written in it from the bottom up periodically.
Often times people participating in that industry are addicted to some drug(s) which could affect behavior and decisionmaking. Often women are incentivized via "bonuses" to perform acts they would otherwise avoid --and they are routinely given "painkillers" in order that the act be less painful in its execution.

Imagine you had a different employer who got people addicted to some substance and in return for more drugs had them work at some arbitrarily low rate via some contractual arrangement. Maybe, if drugs were all legal the arrangement would be legal --but would the population at large be okay with that? I think most people would cry foul.
Loved that movie as a kid and just played it for my gf who hadn't seen it (but grew up watching The Last Unicorn).

Definitely simplistic compared to some more modern material, but I think it still holds up as something for younger kids who might not get more complex storylines. It's a cool modern fairy tale even if a few of the characterizations might be a bit iffy to modern sensibilities.
What is your nation? How the law is enforced varies greatly from country to country so it depends a lot.
I don’t find it terrifying in the slightest. I find it naive.

Our understanding of the world reflects our modelling of the world. Empirical science models the world in terms of probabilities, and this, by necessity, makes everything look like a Markov chain.

But “the map is not the territory”, as the saying goes.

I’m not implying, nor do I believe that there’s any sort of magic going on, but if Markov chains are all that is needed for sentience, then what isn’t sentient? Panpsychists would certainly be having a field day.
You are so right.

Honestly a big reason I read hackernews is to see the hilarious cognitive dissonance some people have here when trying to twist their ideologies so that the state of capitalist society makes rational and humanitarian sense. There are so many extremely intelligent people here that put all that intelligence into the stupidest box.
> Make the police walk and cycle around town, not sit aloof in their metal tanks.

This is such a good idea. Remember the old police shows where there were always 2 partner cops in the car? That doesn't happen anymore. Now every cop gets his own personal car that they drive home at night. If there is a wreck - even a small fender bender - about 4 cop cars show up with sirens blazing, completely disrupting traffic. It's crazy.

Can you give an example of an issue you faced with auto incrementing keys?

Though I can imagine scenarios, the worst I've ever run into was maxing out the integer size, bit that was easily remedied.
Oh, I never use the built-in terminal, and obviously never noticed or clicked on the extra heading (which seems easily hidden with right click).

This also doesn't seem to come under "nagging" for me. To me, that'd be something like, a popup while using or trying to click through a commit reference (which would almost certainly earn it an instant uninstall).
It’s totally worth checking out that video I posted in the sibling comment if you have time, it is super interesting at the end, and I think you’ll enjoy it because it’s funny. There’s scientific evidence for people who claim to be pro women in STEM, from parents to tenured professors having relatively severe biases and not even knowing it.

> I’m mad about the blatantly preferential treatment that women received (as a result of people trying to “right historical wrongs”)

I understand why you and many people feel this way. Affirmative Actions are, in fact, preferential treatment which does put them in a category of bias and discrimination, and public support for Affirmative Actions is mixed. But it is a known bias undertaken intentionally, and the idea is that it’s temporary until we can show that things are fair (not the same, just fair). The idea is to combat the preferential treatment that men already receive, which we can prove is happening, but we don’t know how to fix. This one reason to consider not being mad about it - men absolutely received (and are still receiving) preferential treatment. The other reason I just hinted at - this isn’t a ‘historical’ wrong, it’s an ongoing wrong. (But it is getting less wrong over time!) There’s evidence for the fact that men are still getting preferential treatment, and as such women still have a right to be mad about it. But if we’re all mad then everyone’s pissed and nothing gets fixed.

If we don’t like Affirmative Action, one natural question to ask is, what’s the practical alternative? Just assume for a minute that the claim that men get preferential treatment is true. Then how else could we fix that? What could you propose that would be better than giving an oppressed group preferential treatment? That does suck in a way, but we’ve tried a lot of things in the past, and attitudes that lead to bias are extremely stubborn and persistent, not just on gender but on race and class and other things too, and it’s not clear that time will fix them without other interventions.

Let me try on a bad analogy for size. Pretend I’m mixing gas for my two-stroke dirt bike, and both my oil can and my gas can are leaky. I’m trying to get a half-and-half mix (pretend!) but when I pour what I think are equal amounts, I can see I end up with a 72/25 mix that’s oil heavy and way too rich, and some mess on the ground. I don’t have a way to plug the leaks, but I can see clearly that I have some. What should I do? Does it makes sense to slow the oil rate, or increase the gas rate until the mix is even? The right solution of course is plugs for the oil & gas cans, or new cans, but I need to drive to the hardware store in town first. This bad analogy doesn’t capture the distinction between fairness vs sameness - we want equal opportunity not necessarily equal outcome - but I think there might be value in the idea that we have leaky cans leaking in unequal amounts, and thus pouring a little more from one of them to balance out the leaks is a completely reasonable thing to do, no?

S3 has quite a significant markup over the HW and electricity costs. Sometimes up to 10x, you can see this by how much discount percentages sales reps are willing to apply to cost of storage. Many of these smaller providers charge a smaller markup and are thus cheaper than (non-discounted) S3.

Cheaper storage alone is enough to lure some people away. There are also people that simply hate AWS for reasons of their own and choose a startup provider for ideological reasons. Finally there is the obvious application of encrypted storage, to store material that is illegal in your jurisdiction.

If there are no other options, then selling your body for sex is coercion.

Same is true in capitalism, and I will die on that hill too.

If you work in a company town and you’re forced into manual labour then I see that as quite similar honestly.

That you’re not free to sell your body as a sex worker but are free to sell your body as a miner or oil rigger is a weird double standard in my opinion.

But yes, it gets muddy when you have to contend with the idea of your free will not being your own, but I don’t get the impression that girls on onlyfans are forced, that they are unsafe or that they are being put in tenuous situations (like people trafficking them and keeping their passports).

You mean a list of distributed exchanges.

Its like a list of all the small shop money exchanges that exists. But it doesn't mean its decentralized. It also means you always need a trusted third party for the exchange.

Wasn't crypto about going rid of those trusted third parties?
This CGP-Grey-like channel that I found a year ago has gotten a lot more popular in the past couple of years, but it's still criminally overlooked considering the quality of the teaching.
I will admit this is an interesting argument.

I would question the characterization of small. Even today, total crypto market cap is just shy of 1T. Even relative to more established plays it is nothing to sneeze at.

But note that the same could be argued about USD system("Look at this market today. Everything is falling. Everything is tied together. One bad inflation reading and domino is falling down and the whole ecosystem follows."). I am exaggerating for effect, but not that much.

> And that's with maybe using 20% of Russias military capacity.

Let's not fool ourselves here: if there was a way for Putin to avoid looking like an idiot who struggles to take even parts of Ukraine he would take it.

Truth is he failed spectacularily and everyone who has the slightest idea can see for themselves that Russia is struggling mightily despite their initial backstab where they had a few hours to bomb Ukraine and insert troops at will despite their promises the night before.

They fail despite having multiple influential politicians who they had bribed in advance, multiple sleeper cells, and, on the paper, a much much stronger army.

He has already sent the troops that was supposed to protect the strategically important Murmansk area, proving 1.) The Ukraine invasion is massively important to him 2.) He also proved all the words about being afraid of Nato is just a waste of perfectly fine silence, as he knows perfectly well that Nato is mostly peaceful and has not intention of invading or nuking Russia. After all he removed these troops while Nato, Sweden and Finland was gathering lots of troops right across the border :-D

> All according to western sources.

Someone dubbed Heissentruths, truths whose exact value cannot be known until you open the box.

Russians and their friends has a lot of Heissentruths. Western media being a reliable source is one of these. In this case it is absolutely true and very reliable, in another case were they point out the Russian attempts at genocide they are of course absolutely unreliable and only fools would refer to them.

Edit:

If Nato joins the conflict, Russian authorities only hope is their strategic weapons.

And given what we have seen about how well the kleptocracy maintains their conventional weapons I am somewhat less worried about that then what I was in February/March.

I have a feeling they too have noted this as I hear less and less mentions of this option from them, so it is either that they have realized the red button won't work or they are preparing a surprise.
I visited Brazil recently (3-4 months ago), I got into cryptocurrency-talk or some shitcoin peddled by cashiers, Uber drivers, waiters in some restaurants, acquaintances that aren't tech-savvy at all, etc. That's when it downed on me how big this whole thing got outside of internet chatter, it downed how many vulnerable people are exposed to the fallout of a crypto implosion.
Yeah, I too have been meaning to try it out. I guess the "barrier" for me is the ecosystem surrounding it.

I find it so odd that every single gitmo detainee was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. There were thousands of people who got detained in Iraq and Afghanistan, but only a select few got brought to gitmo.

I’m more inclined to believe that the people of the US military bureaucracy were acting in good faith, and had a legitimate reason to believe these people were working for the enemy vs hearing the same story you hear from 100% of unrepentant convicted felons. “I was in the wrong place at the wrong time, they have the wrong guy”

I’d also like to remind people who don’t believe the people of US bureaucracy were acting in good faith that it’s these same people who will be working in whatever new giant gov service you want created. Might want to consider that next time you argue for government mandated/required/etc anything. If you don’t trust them to do the right thing in this case, why do you think it’ll be different in your case?

> There is no reason to expect it to crash by that much in the next few years, if ever.

Was there a reason to expect it to happen in the first place? Aside from ex post facto reasoning?

Housing is a tough market to crash because people need to live somewhere, so if prices fall people just avoid moving, and liquidity drops. For prices to fall substantially requires that people express a liquidity preference -- they'd rather have the money, even discounted, then keep the house. And the primary way that happens is that people can no longer afford to service their mortgages.

This doesn't happen easily, but when it happens, things can break very dramatically.
