> What concerns me [...] the power he has as one person

What concerns me is that the traditional media are not able to make interesting podcasts that connect as well with most people.

Don't blame Joe Rogan for what he does, blame everybody else for not being able to do the same.

Joe Rogan has no power by himself, only by traditional media not wanting to let people talk freely on the radio anymore. No one runs unedited interviews anymore. Everything is massaged into the viewpoint that the journalist already has.
In other words, he's a glorified talk show host?
What guest are you specifically talking about?
> They shouldn't do this IMHO.

AdGuard is a business, and Chrome is the world's most popular web browser. They don't have much of a choice. uBlock Origin can pass because it's not a business.
Imagine telling a woman having a podcast to make sure that a man looks over the script first before it goes out...
Absolutely, also I wonder if it was NMN instead.
I have an 8GB M1. It never gets hot but sometimes becomes unusable just using WebEx (and my inSync backup kicking off in the background).
The edit-rate is perhaps lower than I expected? Feels like ~7-15/minute at 8-ish am Eastern time.
Even if they don’t store it: if they get a court order, and it requires to turn on IP logging, they will have yours the next time you log in.
In part I am curious about how these requests are made; I would expect that the 2 most common kind of request are from law enforcement following public channels/groups, from individual reports of private conversations, and from previous investigations.

That is I imagine requests would be in the shape of "here is a username give us IP and phone number".

It is also relevant to know whether German courts can order to collect this information, it is also relevant that German courts apply German jurisdiction universally (an example there are African war lords convicted of war crimes that have no relation to Germany or German citizens).

Personally I would prefer privacy first companies to focus on lobbying the idea that these kind of court orders are to be used sparingly rather than enter an adversarial arm race with regulators.
Don't mistake the visible for the real.

People like Zuckerberg have orders of magnitude more power, but they aren't so easily seen and heard.

There will always be powerful people, and a moderator like Rogan isn't anywhere near to the top of the ladder.
Every note is a sum of harmonic sine waves, usually not just a single one. The first harmonic of 440hz is 880Hz. So plucking a harp string for A4 will also produce the A5 and A6...
Totally unusable in Firefox on Windows 10 as well.
> Joe ask the "dumb questions." The questions you would ask if you as a laymen were sitting in front of a Nobel Prize winning scientist

This is exactly why he’s so popular. Most people are laymen. Joe doesn’t have a research team coming up with optimal talking points. He’s a regular minded guy asking regular questions. He achieves depth through the sheer length of interviews.
I am not sure why this was down voted, as sexism work both ways. Asking a woman to review a man's content is the same thing as asking a man to review a woman's content, and most people would not be fine with the second.
> A bit of a filter is a good thing for everyone, whether it's trusted friends who can and do tell you when you're wrong, an editor at work, a legal team, whatever. It's also honest. I think Joe Rogan could use a filter.

Cool, who do you suggest should do the filtering? We could create a ministry of censorship.
The US Navy sailed guided missle cruisers along and just outside Chinese waters Sunday. The headline in that case neglected to proffer that they were "heavily armed", I guess the objective news only mentions that if they're Russian ships, not peace-seeking ships from the west.

That episode is one of the very best of the show too. I had to pirate it.
Classic text from 1944 on this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitalism_and_Slavery

> The book, besides dealing with a passage of economic history, was furthermore a frontal attack on the idea that moral and humanitarian motives were key in the victory of British abolitionism. It was also a critique of the idea common in the 1930s, and in particular advocated by Reginald Coupland, that the British Empire was essentially propelled by benevolent impulses. The centenary celebration of the 1833 Act that took place in the United Kingdom in 1933, in Kingston upon Hull where William Wilberforce was born, was a public event in which Coupland made these ideas explicit, supported in The Times by G. M. Trevelyan.

> An attempt by Williams to have his dissertation published in the United Kingdom through Fredric Warburg failed: the undermining of the humanitarian motivation for the Abolition Act 1833 was found unacceptable, culturally speaking.[7] Publication of Capitalism and Slavery happened finally in the United States, in 1944. It appeared in a British edition in 1964.

I was thinking about this the other day when someone linked a weird defense of the roots of US capitalism in slavery, and attacking historians generally as being "too political", where they were trying to claim that yes okay the horrific slavery did actually happen, but you couldn't prove that slavery helped to establish captalism in the USA, because in theory, it wasn't necessary for capitalism and if you couldn't prove it then talking about it was just politics not history.

Some short biographical sketches of some of these slave traders:

talk, show, host… yes, that is exactly what he is!
Source? I use Telegram as a normal messenger because it has a good UI.
Faszinating: I also thought about exactly '&==' in the past. It seems to be natural choice for this.

But then, continuing that thinking, if you have '&==', you'd also need '&!=' -- that looks really confusing.

Can't we turn that into a '==0' test somehow? Maybe '^&', because '((a ^ b) & b) == 0' is equivalent to '(a & b) == b'. And, as somehow said: '~&' also works: '(~a & b) == 0' is also equivalent to '(a & b) == b'.

if ((a ~& b) == 0) { ... }

Wait -- we can swap that into '&~' and we're back in C. However, it reverses the logical order, with the test bits first:

if ((b & ~a) == 0) { ... }

if (((WGPUColorWriteMask_Alpha|WGPUColorWriteMask_Blue) & ~mask) == 0) {
...
}

So we're back -- this is standard C now. But I find it incomprehensible.

I'm not sure why you think item #1 is relevant. Especially since you seem to be referring to modern economies. That said, there is certainly historic evidence that currency debasement has caused economies to fail, right?

As far as #2 is concerned, I don't contend that "paper pushing" or "busy/BS work" didn't exist in hard currency environments. What I'm suggesting is that the proportion of it increases with a fiat currency. Specifically because profligacy is normalized.

Perhaps if we compare the public sector size of individual countries with their debt/gdp we'll see a correlation?

And, to address #3, although a person can still dig for gold to get money... there's no obligation (law) that makes anyone accept it as payment. And, more importantly, you can't pay your taxes with it. Which means gold (or any other unofficial/alternative currency) has an inefficiency imposed on it by the state. So your final point seems incomplete and therefore inadequate in disputing the hypothesis.

Bear in mind, I'm not completely sure myself... it's mostly my intuition. Another reply contends that the root cause is over-financialization which, to me, is also fair. That'd imply fiat currency was merely an artifact. Determining attribution can certainly be challenging - as they say - correlation does not imply causality (-:

So, I'm just trying to think it through in a simple, constructive manner to explain the perceived anomalies like massive wealth disparity. Which, I'd guess has grown significantly since the start of civilization.

I assume you think there's always been a relatively constant amount of "paper pushing" or so called "bs/busy" work? What makes you say that? Or are you just assuming that's a base case? Is it plausible that in ancient times people could sit around and do nothing without suffering a quick death from the elements?

How can we explain the ever increasing pay/wealth gap if some people aren't accumulating wealth for doing less "work"? Did the variation in human ability increase over time? I guess that's a possibility. And I find that there's never a single cause when trying to explain complex phenomenon. Nonetheless, it's an interesting exercise.

Leeroy Jenkins disagrees
Joe Rogan is able to produce a podcast in which the topics covered and the tones used are not really dictated by advertisers. This is as good and independent as it gets. The podcast should be a prime example of what the web should be about: genuine content free from higher up control and censorship.

The problem seems to be that you don't like this kind of content and would much prefer "safer" things to be popular, but that's exactly how we get harmless TV shows and meaningless music ruining the fun for everyone.
Is there a good way to host tiles for only a small part of the world? I have some apps that are only useful in my county - so I would like to have very detailed tiles for areas in my county, but there's no reason for me to generate or serve street-level tiles for somewhere in California or Tokyo or wherever.

Because it's hard to lock down tile servers for public-facing apps, I have always been a bit nervous putting anything online in case someone swipes my key and uses it and one morning I wake up to a huge bill.
Whether or not you like Joe Rogan, I think there’s something significant about how far they’ve come with so little.

They don’t have many employees. They don’t take much time to produce shows. They don’t have countless assistants to schedule logistics. They keep their operating costs modest. And yet their shows reach a mass audience.

I respect how a small team has kept onto their autonomy and continues to grow and be in the headlines constantly depending on what was discussed. They just push content into the world and the world reacts to it.

Images like those truly boggle the mind.
I appreciate your comment and indeed two of three statements (idiot and moron) lacked opinion wording and were stated as a facts. I have edited my comment in a way that doesn't invalidate yours.

But you're not right regarding me not watching "the show". I've seen the interview with Musk in which Musk said "this stuff doesn't work on me" while pretending to inhale smoke from a pot joint. I've seen Dan Aykroyd interview which was basically Dan Aykroyd advertising his skull-bottled vodka. I've seen dr. Rhonda Patrick episode, dr. David Sinclair episode and maybe 10 to 15 more episodes.

I'm not ashamed to admit that I went through a very brief "this guy is fucking cool!" phase but after really getting to hear what he's got to say, my opinion of him is that he's a behavioral copycat and a moron.
Are you taking into consideration how hot the nurse was?
You know, I don't even particularly like Joe Rogan or agree with him on many issues, but I'd say that your mentality here is just about everything wrong with big corporate media companies.

Every opinion that deviates slightly outside of the current zeitgeist has to be watered-down, censored, scoffed down upon, and diminished.

Everything has to be reviewed by bloodsucking lawyers rather than talking like a normal human being.

Somehow a lone white man is not allowed to express his opinion without a layer of ''diversity'' to somehow make it acceptable.

Joe has a following bigger than Belgium precisely because the rest of the media is such a bland and fake piece of shit for the reasons you mentioned. If you want to point the finger at anybody for the success of Joe Rogan, look in the mirror buddy.
The categorical statement "Telegram never shares information about your chats or contacts with third parties, including government agencies" is simply dishonest. The word "never" is incorrect.
I’ve heard Jon Stewart do this. He puts all this effort into political commentary and when he got called out on something said “Hey my show comes on after crank yankers!” Oh so when you’re wrong now you shouldn’t be taken seriously, I see.
This is one thing that always puzzled me with recreational drugs.

People just snort/eat/shoot/smoke whatever? It's been through how many shady people on the way to you?
Completely agree. I think zoomers get a high out of all the "engagement" they're manufacturing for themselves and their server, what with all the different channels and notifications to click-through and explore. The red notification bubble is a tantalizing treat. They were raised on that kind of hyper engagement-optimized corporate walled-garden internet, so it's what they're comfortable using.

This makes me realize something: between the 50+ channel discord servers and the twitter X/20 chain posts, people are slowly rediscovering the superior usability of the "old internet", i.e. traditional forums and blogs. Each discord channel is one long poorly-indexed thread, and each twitter chain post is a blog. People are naturally gravitating back toward these traditional patterns because they work very well for the kind of communicating we do on the internet.

Add a voice chat channel to a traditional forum and you have discord with better usability (and index-ability). Put your twitter chain post on your Substack or regular blog and now it's infinitely more readable.

I guess the problem with going from twitter to blog though is that you lose discoverability and the momentum and network effect that twitter has.

And with discord, it's just visually more appealing than both traditional forums and IRC, especially with all the vector cartoon animals and soft edges. I suppose if a traditional forum started rounding its corners, adding anime kitsune vector art, and using several shades of purple, maybe they'd become popular again. That and add some voice channels.
It was also a time of record petrol prices, I believe, so people may have looked at ways to cut spending.

Anyway, my take is that it is not realistic or sustainable to have the State subsidise people's daily activities and this scheme was 'generous' to the point of being a PR stunt (the aim being to show how the government was helping with the cost of living).

CO2 emissions should be cut systemically and sustainably.

My point is that the context of the function can invalidate a microbenchmark completely.

If you only call this function once in a while, then the context is more important than the function.

You can only ignore the context when you do video decoding or matrix inversion or similar "context free" long running code.

> "We noticed your app attempts to manipulate customers into making unwanted in-app purchases. Specifically, we noticed that your app displayed a secondary promotion."

That's really quite vague, I can think of MANY games/applications which fit that description by design.

I've had some issues before with Apple's ecosystem, specifically accepting customer payments (we were processing payments for our clients) and only after the application was being used significantly, Apple disconnected it.

It really felt like Apple were waiting until the dependancy on their ecosystem was at such a point where pulling out was not an option.

I can only suggest have a lot of patience and be as polite as possible. The frustration is incredible when it happens though. Good luck !
> Its purpose is to keep people out of ruts, for which it works.

It’s purpose is alliviate people of their disposable income for which is also works. Same for personality tests. There are people charging huge sums for going to companies and telling them half their people have purple personalities and the other half mantenga and that’s the core reason why their bus ones hasn’t yet reached the incredible synergy that will make them the next Google or Apple!
People listen to the JRE because he gets great guests. Almost all of us know Joe is a moron.

Don't assume that just because we subscribe that we are being indoctrinated to every stupid comment he makes. That assumption infantilizes is all.

The overreaction to filter content based on that assumption is a much more problematic issue than the content itself.

It seems like developers need to make a new shell company and developer account for each one of their apps to spread the risk around.
Years ago I listened to JRE for a while. I enjoyed the approach that I would sum up as "I don't know, let's hear what some folks think." It felt fair and open and interesting.

But at some point it occurred, "Shouldn't at some point, if we're listening to all this that, we stop being a dumb guy who doesn't know anything and actually have opinion / challenge some of these things with some facts / solid ideas?"

But I never saw that happen, and as time went on the "I don't know" excuses just felt ... more and more insufficient, dumb by choice, or just excuses.

At some point just being "dumb" and listening to every rando person makes you susceptible to / a target of a bunch of horrible randos with bad ideas ... An open approach is admirable, but not learning along the way is not.

Fromsoft has unskippable tutorials in most of their games, going back to Demon’s Souls. Perhaps they were designed well enough that you didn’t notice?
"The Logitech G Gaming Handheld looks roughly the same size as a Nintendo Switch, and it even includes a Switch-like UI where you scroll through apps and games. One leaked image shows Chrome and YouTube apps, alongside Xbox, Nvidia, and Steam icons. Logitech was quick to file a DMCA complaint to remove them from Twitter (and thus confirm the authenticity of the device)."

The hardware looks nice and should be good given that it is from Logitech. The big question is where will the games come from and how will their prices compare to Nintendo?

Nintendo has excellent quality games for the most part, but their prices are generally pretty expensive unless you are looking at used cartridges. If they do digital game downloads (perhaps movies or other content too?) with prices that undercut Nintendo, they might break into the market.

Personally other than "Going to Home Depot" I would rather have good public transit for all of these. In fact my city has decent (and rapidly improving) transit and I find the experience better than sitting in traffic, even if I'm not driving (and don't need to focus on the road). Taxis (autonomous or otherwise) mitigate a lot of problems with cars but traffic is still a huge issue. Cars just aren't an efficient way to move people. In rural areas where space is cheap and everything is spread out anyways than it makes sense. But in the city where space is valuable high-capacity transit makes the most sense. The space taken up by cars (even if no parking is needed) is just not worth it. Especially when you tack on noise, pollution and the danger to pedestrians.
luck and networking, just like my day job
And some things don't even work. For instance, my dentist had a sign "rate us here on google" with a QR code. That code didn't work on my phone. I eventually figured out that it works fine in Chrome, but doesn't work in Firefox. In fact, there's no way to rate businesses on Google.com from Firefox on my phone. The links just aren't there, and going directly gives a 404.

Everything works fine on Chrome.

That's obviously done maliciously by Google, of course.

Making a living as an illustrator comes from a long stream of networking and brand building, that path is reserved to a crazy small minority and being talented and good at drawing is just the entry ticket to participate in the battle royale.

If you just need a nice illustration you can already catch any random guy on a drawing board and pay them nothing close to a living salary, and more like enough for two lattes at a starbucks. An AI plugin doesn’t seem to me to change much of that situation.
