Wait, what? Who the heck is Demi Lovato? I never even heard of her until I browsed her Wikipedia page.
I considered the 13 Mini, gave up due to two things: it's (really) expensive here in Brazil, and its cameras (or its main camera) isn't noticeable better than the one on SE. I couldn't justify spending the extra money for pretty much the same phone plus some niceties.

They already moved from being this useful tool to keep track of friends and people you meet to being a noisy content platform. BUT, you can still use it (via messenger) to keep track of your friend, so people (including me) still use it for that. It is still a shame that they didn't preserve the old utility of facebook and created the noisy content platform as a separate thing.

I hope we can have a civil disagreement on this, without personal resentments.

This is indeed freedom, and I don't approve of violent and repressive regimes to change people's behavior.

Yet, this is not positive from my point of view. Doing this makes me closer to animals, farther from human.

Humans have the freedom to live different from animals.

A tiger simply don't think whether the way it lives and kills prey is ethical. Humans can and do.

Animals don't have intimacy. They just do their stuff wherever they are.

Humans have the freedom to look for and build intimacy.

So, although what you described is indeed freedom, it's not the behavior I want for myself. I wouldn't promote it, because it goes against the direction I would be happy to see other humans moving. And I wouldn't like to live in places that go against it as well.

That's just my personal freedom of thinking and judging what I see, not that I'll negate it by forcing others to live my way.

First point is gibberish, we are heading towards global recession so last thing affected countries will want to do is pour hundreds of thousands of people completely out of touch with given country and its customs and history, often not knowing language well and their skills are OK only on paper.

The algorithm™. ByteDance, the company behind TikTok, had previously launched one of the most popular news aggregators in China, running on the same / a variation of the same algorithm (machine learning, etc. based afaik).

Thats why its taking off so much - just like ByteDance's other products. That AI or whatever it is is very, very effective at understanding what you want.

If you look at the list for the most famous people of all time, and especially for men[1], a large majority seem to have originated (and even remained all their life) outside what most people would consider the "privileged elite". Notably absent are some of the wealthiest individuals of all time, Crassus, Jakob Fugger, Andrew Carnegie, John D. Rockefeller.

Of course, it doesn't disprove being born in favourable circumstances can and will affect your quality of life. But this list seems largely indifferent to how much money or power daddy has.

IMO Facebook used to be perfect, and can still be if they split the content platform from the close social networking platform. Not because you are forced to use the content platform, but I think it drives people away. I got a close friend who deleted his facebook account and I can't find him anymore, nobody knows how to contact him, I went twice to his city and couldn't reach out to him.

My Chambers dictionary suggests these alternatives: actually, really, absolutely.

It also says, "literally is in common use to intensify an idiom, and this is not incorrect".

My general rule is that usage defines meaning. If lots of people use literally as an idiom intensifier, then I'd be wrong to argue. However, my GCSE English teacher said that we need to consider the intended audience and form. Me saying, "They literally flew down the road" to my mates in the pub is fine. It is not fine in formal writing.

Yes. My comment concerned your earlier use of principally in "principally intended to preserve normative freedom of movement rights."

I believe they are principally done as surveillance flights, with freedom of movement rights as an important but secondary role.

> because people are afraid of data collection now in a way they weren't in 2006. And this narrative that big companies are sucking up data and ruining society was pushed by "old" media in a struggle to remain relevant

What are you talking about? These assholes invented panopticon surveillance based advertising.

Instead of making hundreds of millions or billions of dollars selling normal ads to normal people the way it had been done for decades (buy an ad on a page people who see the page see the ad) they pushed and pushed to climb into every corner of your digital life to know exactly who you are to squeeze out even more profits.

Then they used monopoly power so gained to illegally crush all competitors while buying off the political leadership that should have stopped them.

But this is somehow the fault of “old media”? Come on.

The reason it would be hard to start something like that is because of overwhelming monopoly power these platforms hold and their commitment to using surveillance. In a sane freely competitive world these alternatives would already exist.

But a corporation leveraging their extreme digital footprint to become a de facto currency issuer, in all but name.

But without the enticement of membership in the elite, with a greater share of society's wealth, power and privileges, no one would bother working hard to become doctors, lawyers, software developers and CEOs. We need a stratified society to have all these things the modern world gives us. It is only the desire to escape the cotton fields and sweatshops that spurs people to work. It is the only reason that our world has seen amazing advancements in science, technology and business. Capitalism depends on inequality, and we depend on capitalism.

This is logic of capitalism. This is our society's justification for incredible differences in pay and wealth.
I'm not even sure if Nyquist applies here since the GIF is already a non-continuous function and therefore has potentially infinite frequency components. The input itself is not band-limited.

Another way to put this is that a GIF is already a sampled function. For example imagine intensity of each pixel in a particular GIF is a function sin(x * t). Nyquist just says you can only accurately reconstruct this for 25px wide GIFs at 50FPS without aliasing.

And as you pointed, you'd still have to bandlimit the output.
Oh, good luck with that! You've probably heard this, but Portuguese grammar is super hard. Except for teachers, enthusiasts, and academics, I guess nobody here really knows, let alone explain most of our grammar rules.

Imagine you want to know the depth of liquid in a tank you're filling up - and you've got a noisy depth gauge and a noisy flow-rate meter.

If you merely take the mean of the last 10 depth gauge readings, your smoothed depth reading will always lag behind the true depth, being about 5 readings out-of-date.

By fusing together the noisy depth gauge, and the noisy flow-rate meter, and a model saying how fast depth rises with flow, you can average out the noise without creating the same level of lag.

This is useful in applications like GPS receivers - there's noise so you do need filtering, but for driving through complex junctions, the last thing you want is a 5 second delay!

Try to do that with a factor of e.g. 10 (you would likely need a factor of 1000 to cope with a "composition" of millions of notes) and observe the quality. The "physical limits" (e.g. Nyquist rate) also apply to the calculations done by a computer. To cope with the speed-up of slow motion to real-time you'd have to re-sample or transpose. Even with a very large sampling rate both of these transformations only produce useful results within narrow limits (less than an octave, i.e. factor two).

Was about to say this. The netbook (and in extension UMPC) niche never really died. It was a niche a decade ago and it's still a niche today.

One thing I will say is that, these tiny devices never fail to seem magical to the general public. I own (and from time to time use) a OneMix 2S Yoga, and even in this day and age with our smartphones and thin-and-light laptops, every time I pop it out on a bus or plane or at a conference, countless people strike up a conversation asking me what "that tiny laptop(/macbook*)" is...

Peter Thiel is someone who's thought processes make very little sense to me.

I see very little evidence for any kind of direct causal connection between Christianity and Western progress.

I wonder if these people claiming Christianity supports their belief system have even read the New Testament. You would be very hard pressed to find a quote from Jesus that supports the notion that the most important thing for people to do is to go out fix the world and make a lot of money doing it. When asked how people should live their lives his answer was always that spiritual pursuits were more important than material ones (see, for example, the story of Martha and Mary) and within the realm of material activities the most important thing was helping people.

> Unlike Twitter, TikTok doesn’t need a critical mass of famous or influential people to use it for its content to prove engaging.

I would go further: celebrities often treat Tiktok as just another distribution channel and they seem to flop because of it.

Another point: Tiktok has incredibly slick UI/UX. IG used to have this but that's been lost in the constant battle of competing interests. Even the search isn't terrible. Probably the best feature is you can search videos you've watched and/or liked. I can't tell you how many times I've found what I've been looking for because of that.

Stitching and dueting are genuinely new formats too. Plus it's not all dance videos (eg [1]). One issue Tiktok does have is brigading/mass-reporting. You have to identify people who make false reports (eg when a video is reviewed and reports are found baseless you could make such reports as false). Collect too many and your reports get ignored (ie you're shadowbanned).

FB/IG managed to successfully steal the stories feature (from Snapchat) but I don't think that's going to work with Reels. As noted, Tiktok isn't really based on a social graph so there's a disconnect there.

Some commenters here have talked about data collection. Literally nobody cares about that.

People forget how controversial introducing the news feed was. IIRC ~10% of users said they'd quite FB over the news feed. But that decision has proven to be correct. What I think is actually the most controversial FB thing did was enable sharing of links. This boosted engagement but I think really killed the use case many had for FB: to find out what friends, relatives and acquaintances were up to. Nobody cares about Aunt Alice's posts about how the pigeons are government cameras.

One area I think FB really dropped the ball on was Groups. For a lot of active FB users this is why they use FB. It should be more central to the experience (IMHO).

Tiktok isn't hte first existential threat to FB. IG was. Back then FB could buy IG. It's why they did. In a decade we've had two existential threats to FB. This is why I don't think government action is really needed in the social media space. It'll work itself out.
