oh man yeah if we had a dollar for every time an owner passed on "more orders" because they didn't have the staff to handle more... we'd have another compelling revenue stream.

On iOS you can prompt a user to add a WiFi network by showing a WiFi QR in an img tag (it can be set to opacity:0 and put on top of something else) and instructing the user to long-press it and choose "Join Network". I don't think you can do it on Android.
The article is missing specific legal details so it's hard to tell what's really going on. In general Gibson's Bakery could go back to the trial court and seek a legal order to enforce the judgment, possibly by ordering Oberlin College's bank to directly transfer funds. If the college defies a specific court order then eventually the court could jail college employees for contempt, but that wouldn't be a criminal prosecution.

TBH, being GDPR compliant isn't that hard, just don't track your users lol. A lot of the web was GDPR compliant by default 20 years ago.

That's probably a grounding problem, and was probably just coincidentally broken since optical cables don't carry electrical signals, and hence can't be a part of ground loops.
Well, it appears the amount jumped from 31m to 36m after the Supreme Court, so they did get some kind of penalty there somewhere.

I remember that story. An absolute travesty. Theft is theft no matter the thief race. All that insanity and energy wasted in the name of "inclusivity"... If people want to "fix injustices", well start making colleges like Oberlin free of charge for poor students, not try to harass a bakery into dropping charges when thieves are of a certain color of skin...
Others have commented on the other fallacies in your post but you say

>If evolution had been “conservative”

When has evolution not been conservative? Tiny changes over the span of generations is certainly not liberal or radical. It took what, hundreds of thousands of years if not more for us to evolve into Homo sapiens and develop intelligence.
Ya it's only been two days since the state supreme court ruling. Oberlin could keep appealing to the feds, which they may do. Imo the "when will we see our money" is a bit silly; an emotional appeals when this process always entails a ton of legal appeals before the …final_final_forReal.PDF decision is handed down.

I've been trying to stay away from doing public facing web apps for a decade, so, from my point of view, hydration doesn't make any sense.

Authorization is in the browser, meaning I get to serve the login page "real fast".

That said, I get the reasons people do it, but frankly, it doesn't sit well with me. It's guaranteed that the whole process is unreasonably complicated as opposed to serving a few static files that can be cached and everything.

I'm theory, it could benefit people browsing without JS but I am not sure if things work out this way. Do next next require js on the client to display whatever was "rendered" on the ui server?

> Again, politics is part of science.

But the question is: Should it be like that? Should we encourage or discourage that?

> (and can give you examples if you really want to read them)

Sure, I'd appreciate it. Especially if the articles/books covering them were not published in the recent years. I've read "Betrayers of the Truth" [1], so I know about the Piltdown Man [2] (which was apparently used to "prove" that earliest men were British), or that Cyril Burt [3] had most probably falsified data in his studies on heritability of IQ. Sometimes these exposés are themselves a tad biased though.

> some fringe gender science

It's not just social sciences, although they are much more affected. See the charts in the article linked in my original comment, for example.

And, IMO, it's not just a fringe part of gender studies. Its departments are essentially ideological think-tanks of the worst kind, with very little objective research being done by them.

> I don't see that much work like that anymore

But I'm sure you also know that there are certain things which are probably true, but almost no one would ever dare (or could) publish any kind of new evidence supporting them in the current climate.

While I am a happy paying Kagi customer, their stance on privacy is nonsensical and amounts to saying "We super duper pinky promise that we won't use your data"

From the Anonymity section: "For example your parents can know everything about you and still fully respect your privacy."

Ok, but if anyone thinks I trust a company the way I trust my parents they are sorely mistaken, and I certainly wouldn't want my parents to have an easily searchable record of everything I've ever searched for online, the same way a search engine provider does.

The complexity of accepting crypto payments is totally understandable. If that's the reason Kagi does not prioritize anonymity then that is understandable, but the justification that "you don't really want privacy anyway" is unnecessary.

"We do not log searches or associate them with an account, by design. This is a software architecture decision (we simply don’t need this) and there is no simple switch one can flip to enable this in case of a court order."

"Software architecture decision" is meaningless. The only guarantee that data will not be collected and stored is a technological, probably cryptographic one.

If an organization is in a position to gain intimate knowledge of your life and habits, they have the ability to influence your life and that of others. Pinky swearing not to do so is a lot like following someone around with a camera while repeating "it's just for a video". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-R5WjfL2ZAg

I don't expect Kagi to accept crypto, and I'll keep paying just because I'll jump at an opportunity to pay with my money rather than with my data. However, given that they decouple their service from the need to track users, I would have expected them to prioritize anonymity wherever possible as the next logical step.

If the justification was technological it would be understandable, but their reassurance that there is nothing to be concerned about is itself concerning.
The main reason for their death in my opinion, is the DRM-driven (although MS claim it wasn't because of DRM) changes to Windows drivers rules.

When DVDs and HDMI were becoming popular, and Windows Vista was launched, a lot of restrictions were put on drivers, I saw many people defending them claiming it was for better stability, avoiding blue screens and so on.

But a major thing the restrictions did, was restrain several of the sound cards features, most notably their 3D audio calculations that were then just starting to take off, people were making 3D audio APIs that intentionally mirrored 3D graphics API with the idea you would have both a GPU and a 3D audio processor, and you would have games where the audio was calculated with reflections, refractions and diffractions...

After that, the only use of sound cards became what the drivers still allowed you to do, that was mostly play sampled audio, so sound cards became kinda pointless.

Gone are the days of 3D audio chips, or having sound cards full of synthethizers that could create new audio on the fly.

Yamaha still manufactures sound card chips, and their current ones have way less features than the ones that they made during the sound card era.

EDIT: also forgot to point out the same restrictions kinda killed analog video too, for example before the restrictions nothing prevented people from sending arbitrary data to analog monitors, so you could have monitors with non-standard resolutions, non-square pixels, unusual bit depths (for example SGI made some monitors that happily accepted 48 bits of color) or not even having pixels at all (think vectrex) and so on. All this died and in a sense also affected video development, some features that video cards were getting at the time were removed and hardware design moved to a narrower path, more compatible with MS rules.

As for what the restrictions have to do with DRM: the point was not allow people to intercept audio and video using analog signals with perfect quality, since this would be an easy way to go around the DRM built-in on HDMI cables.
The answer, as always when it comes to housing issues in Portugal or anywhere else, is to treat this as a supply side problem.

Portugal has an influx of foreign funds through Golden Visa and similar programs. It should take that money and build social housing that is, at least at first, only open to Portuguese citizens. Think Vienna.

In areas where building is a problem, just use funds to buy properties and turn them into social housing.

I don’t know what restrictions there are on foreign real estate purchases. Personally I have no issue with owner occupiers. But any “investors” (including AirBnBs) should be made illegal or simply taxed into oblivion.

It's time to step away from the propaganda.
Be data-driven, and question the provenance of your data all the time. Otherwise you will end up like economics, a field with prettier models and more mathematics than almost every engineering field, and yet gets every major prediction wrong.
KC Tool are great people - I highly recommend them.
> But it's hard for me to see that as a bad thing

I'd buy this argument so long as you actually sit down to do the math at hand. Did you add up the man years we now spend waiting on safety? How does that compare to the lives we saved waiting, or the money we spent doing so? I'm personally guessing a very large amount of the required waiting exists chiefly for bureaucratic needs, not human. How much of that extra 6T$ and 7 years went to saving lives in the first place? How many other lives could we have saved with it if we had it in hand?
I always thought that was Bard, or perhaps Reed or Hampshire.
My understanding is that a clerk from the Supreme Court will deliver the decision (refusal to hear appeal) to the lower court, and then it's up to a constable to enforce the order.

What happens next, I'm not sure. But they can't just defy a court order.
Only appeal from a state supreme court decision is directly to the US Supreme Court, which is generally not very interested in those kinds of appeals.

>they wouldn't be able to afford it.

Oberlin has an endowment valued at approximately $1 billion — this is ~3% of that. (Understanding all those funds may not be liquid, they certainly have some assets.)
(Calling yourself a "refugee" as a rich immigrant is a bit off-puting, imho)

Why do you say that the rise in housing prices has been due to AirBnB but not to rich immigrants? It seems a bit odd. Both can outbid the average native and just push prices high. Many rich immigrants also buy up loads of property for speculative/investment purposes, not just to live in.

>has a large amount of cultural baggage from quite frankly medieval times

I wonder what exactly you mean by this.
Serious, non-rhetorical question:

Do you guys think that the correlation between "interesting work or good pay" and "would not hire a employee who frequents a nude beach" is positive or negative?

(Probably best to mention the country where you work, when you give your answer.)
Lessee. When you die your heirs can sell your house and get money. If you were renting, your heirs get… nothing other than possibly a few more payments. That’s a working definition of wealth for me.

Also, I could sell my SV house and move damn near anywhere, buy a larger house and live on the proceeds. Another definition of wealth that doesn’t involve me dying. It’s an inflation hedge that you can live in.

However, I do not recommend buying a house unless you can change jobs easily without moving. The things don’t tend to be liquid, particularly in down times. Getting one paid off before exiting the workforce, though, is advantageous.
So, this in no way justifies what Meetup.com is (allegedly) doing. It sounds like a very bad business decision, besides being morally questionable.

However... stuff like this is quite normal a few steps up the big-fish, little-fish food web. Even very restrictive regimes allow data to sell with a company. Since company structure is malleable, a lot of acquisitions can be structured that way.

The proverbial meetup organizer organizes her meetups as a company, then sells that company. Such structuring can often be done on the fly, between offer and closing. In non-proverbial land, Meetup.com itself is likely to be the legal owner of the customer relationship. It is meeting organizers' access to data that is questionable, assuming restrictions exist.

The most restrictive examples are usually regulated markets. Casino regulators, for example, mostly issue licenses. The "licensed entity" is not so malleable, because the regulator gets to approve/relicense sales. In practice though, having a regulator involved doesn't change that much. Online casinos, big and small, get sold and the data follows one way or another.
I guess what I was getting at is, the earlier articles that this one riffs on were more along the lines of "don't forget to test these edge cases. If you don't, your system will break when people put in their unusual (but valid!) data".

To me, someone baking in "one email address per user" or "no numeric/symbols" feels different — they're not being caught out by tricky real-world data that they forgot to consider, they're just deliberately cutting a corner (e.g. our company naming policy is '[firstname][lastname]' so we're not going to bother supporting numeric input in the intranet input field).
Legal process was still ongoing until just recently.
>... but AI-generated NSFW doesn't seem to be mentioned in any site-wide rules, in the Terms of Service and no reasoning is being provided by Reddit.

This is just plain not true. They very clearly ban AI-generated NSFW content, hence the removal of the subs:

>Additionally, images or video of another person posted for the specific purpose of faking explicit content or soliciting “lookalike” pornography (e.g. “deepfakes” or "bubble porn") is also against the Rule.

The article asserts that there are still effectively boycots taking place. If this was actually organized in any capacity by college officials, couldn't they be found in contempt of court and criminally charged as well?
Yes, eventually they can seize bank accounts, seize physical assets, and so forth.
Men should work on themselves (gym, purpose, income, friends, hobbies), go out, and meet women in real life. Being able to date as a capable man in today's society is hard. You have to be a lot of things and be constantly working on yourself. I have some theories as to why this is, but it's the truth. The top 10% of men in the dating pool end up dating 80% of the women. Most men have no dating or sexual prospects at all - it's very binary.

I'm not stating this to brag but only for context: I get many concurrent matches when I'm on dating apps. I'm wealthy, pretty good looking (but short which is a big hit), and have a lot of hobbies and am in good shape. Overall, I'd say I get ~100x more matches than most guys and actually have girls who slide into my DMs on Twitter and Instagram. I still deleted all of the apps because I'd rather meet women in real life and I'm way happier and suggest all guys do the same for their mental health.

Online dating doesn't compare to real life. Not saying it can't happen (my ex-ex-girlfriend and I met on Hinge and it was great), but it's just not the same. I find I can meet higher-quality women in real life because I can show up with full energy and depth and showcase confidence in a way that's impossible when she's looking at me in a sea of other matches. I also think dating apps are a bad deal for women as well. They meet a bunch of men who will sleep with them but aren't looking to settle down. It's hard for women to judge the real energy and confidence of a guy online. It's just not a great dynamic for both parties IMO unless you're exclusively looking to hook up (which is fine and people should do what they want).
Yeah I agree about the meetup thing. It can be really hit or miss. Maybe if you pick a good one like hiking or sports. You have to screen out the meetups where there are a lot of retirees or married couples.
no issues, thanks.
According to Google, the moon's mass is 8.1 x 10^19 tons. According to some random info I found, we mined about 3 x 10^9 tons of metal ore in 2019. If we did that on the moon for a thousand years and brought it all back to earth, that's still 7 orders of magnitude less than the moon's mass, so what is that, 1 ten millionth? Is that significant? Well, the earth apparently gains 4 x 10^4 tons every year from just sucking up space dust, and presumably has been for the entire 4.5 x 10^9 years the moon has been around without obvious issues, so it seems like our moving a bit more mass between them wouldn't do much.
Creative, that is a name I haven't heard in a while. I'm old enough to remember limos pulling up to the (to be bought by Creative) EMU office in Scotts Valley by the likes of Trent Reznor to play with the latest sampler. So much gear envy back then. It's so cool to live in 'my' future where I can get a used Pigments soft synth for $75 and Ableton lite for $15 on a niche message board of people from around the world and buy from someone anywhere in the world, pay digitally, and in less than an hour have as much music production as $50,000+ would have bought me in the 90s. It's so crazy to live in what to me is the future.
