Art has many different dimensions that people evaluate when they experience it, and many of them are subjective, but many of them are not. The objective ones are ones I will call "craft," and relate to the demonstrated skill of the artist. I will ascribe the rest of the dimensions to "vision." Craft is about how well the artist can convey the vision.

I am not in the film industry, but I am a musician, so here are a few examples from classical music: A performer who tends to rush the slow sections of music will often give bad performances: the vision of the piece is for that section to be slow, and a weakness in the performer's skill compromises the vision. A composer who writes music that is impossible to play has bad craft. A conductor who gives unclear cues and doesn't keep an orchestra together has bad craft.

I can still enjoy a performance where the slow sections are a little rushed if I like the piece, but that doesn't make it a good performance.

Yes, it does. Just because you might have terms in a contract prohibiting it doesn't mean the law prohibits it.

Yes, it is!

They can also include clauses that the company's code and other materials won't be shared with 3rd parties, aka an NDA. These are standard and well-accepted practice.

The contract will also be very clear that access to the systems is only granted to the person signing the contract. They don't get to grant access to other people just because they have contractor status.

There is little hope for stopping cheaters.

>Basically, I want net metering to be proportional to carbon (and therefore peaker plant use). It's less about the amount of money I get back.

Then you would receive very little compensation for the useless solar you send to the grid at mid day and pay very high prices for any power you use from the grid at night.

There seem to be a plethora of studies showing that hand rolled cigarettes cause lung cancer at similar rates to manufactured ones.

“Native American with lung cancer”

A quick google search shows Native Americans are more likely to have lung cancer.

If you’re talking about pre industrial Native Americans, it’s impossible to tell, because of a relative lack of written records and no accepted standard of what to even call lung cancer.

You’re entire post is so incredibly misleading. Look at the amount of tobacco smoked per capita between 1800 and the peak in the 1960s. The invention of the mass produced cigarette is certainly the cause of the increase in lung cancer deaths, but primarily because it made smoking tobacco much cheaper and therefore drastically increased consumption.

I think it's right on the money. The Web has long sucked even for presentation, let alone for application delivery. It's not that you can't do it now; but it's still a hack upon a hack.

I also don't think the longevity of Web sites will necessarily continue. The earliest sites will render today, but will the same be said of today's "single-page-application" sites that rely on scripting?

And finally, I think the LaserDisc comparison is dumb. LaserDiscs from the '70s were playable through the format's demise in the 2000s. "Coding" for it... makes even less sense.
> lying about who is doing the work and who has access to any sensitive materials related to the work is straight up fraud

Fraud would require a contract saying X is doing the work, which is controlling what will be done and how it will be done which means they would be classified as an employee.
> I find that unlikely. What if you were instead handing it to an employee?

> (Also, different NDAs are... different, it's pretty tough to talk about them all in general and expect a statement to be true.)

If you sign a contract that says you're not going to share the company's code and then you share the company's code, you've violated the NDA. It's as simple as that.

Being a contractor doesn't grant someone magical immunity to the contracts they've signed. At most, the employee could argue that the contract made them a full-time employee and sue for benefits and such. They can't, however, simply ignore contractual obligations that they've agreed to.
I guess I can't imagine a situation where Bill is contracted at a temp agency, turns around and hires Bob, and when Bob shows up with Bill's badge and is refused entry, and Bill somehow wins a lawsuit on the theory that Bill must be allowed to subcontract and anyone he subcontracts to must be allowed on-site to perform the work, no matter what.

Like, not giving out your password (or badge, or key, or whatever) to someone else is a pretty core job responsibility!
Many small scale food delivery startups have already solved this problem.

Phone number verification is the first like of defense. The delivery person might need to call you anyway, so it's an okay compromise to verify the phone number. Only accepting phone numbers from the sake country as you deliver is an added defense, but makes it somewhat inconvenient for travelers without local phone numbers. I'd ease this requirement for neighboring countries (accept US or CA numbers within those two, any EU number within the EU, Singapore+Malaysia, Nepal+India, etc).

Second, adding a card number requires verification too. Charge a small amount, and flag to the payment provider to require secondary authentication the card owner has with the bank. Any serious card owner should have Visa 3D Secure, Mastercard Code, or something similar setup).

This will leave legitimate gift senders (sending muffins to a friend in birthday while I'm in a different country) and travelers, but you'd make that lost revenue by cutting losses for fraud.

> The experiment is voluntary.

This is an example of how the current El Salvador's government writes something in the law, and then changes the meaning (sometimes to the opposite interpretation) by means of a tweet, an interview or pushing a narrative through its propaganda machine, without actually changing the original law.

Bitcoin law states is compulsory, the first government communication was that it was "compulsory", but then the official narrative changed to voluntary as the price decreased.

Quoting Bitcoin Law:

Article 7. Every economic agent MUST accept bitcoin as a payment method if offered by the acquirer of a good or service.

I remember reading something similar in a quite famous book:

“The past was alterable. The past never had been altered. Oceania was at war with Eastasia. Oceania had always been at war with Eastasia.”
OMFG thank you!!!

The terms are negotiated between the company and the contractors.

Being a contractor doesn't automatically grant someone the right to delegate access to sites and such.

I think a lot of people in this thread have misunderstand what the law is actually saying. The law doesn't say that if you're given contractor status you can do whatever you want. The law says that if the job is misclassified as a contracting position when it should be a full-time position, then the employee is owed benefits and such.

If you sign a contract with a company that says you will not share the code, design docs, system access credentials, physical building access, or other common stipulations, you can't automatically ignore those because you're a contractor.
People get banned for posting about swatting, but one of the primary reasons people dox others is to be able to harass them in real life. If someone is doxed you can swat them without needing to coordinate anything, or brag about it on a forum. Folks in the forum can see the person posting about getting swatted, then all laugh at that person.

Folks being harassed by KF get swatted after being doxed. It's pretty easy to make the conclusion that they're being swatted because they've been doxed on KF.

Generally speaking, I subscribe to the philosophy of KISS.

For a multi-user environment where a dozen people could be accessing the same file at any given time, yeah some sort of version control system will probably make everyone's life easier.

For a single user environment as is likely the case for most static websites? Yeah, it's just needless complexity.

In fact, you lost me at "static site generator". WTF? Just write the damn HTML and CSS yourself, it's static after all.

This isn't to say your way isn't wrong /for you/, of course. Whatever floats your boat. For me, it's all just unnecessary complexity that will invite in all sorts of gremlins to waste my time.
I don't think we need to read this as misanthropy, necessarily.

> By any definition humans are an invasive species. Unfortunately killing our fellow humans has been a competitive sport from time immemorial.

Perhaps the point that we, to, are an invasive species is intended to inspire a bit of compassion within us for the hogs, toads, rabbits and whatever else.

I'm not sure how much I agree -- the invasive hogs really are damaging to the ecosystem. Though, manually going out to shoot them seems like a questionable means of controlling the population. And they should be killed as mercifully as other species -- they didn't ask to be invasive, after all.

If they are contracted at a temp agency, then they are taking on the risks Bill would be an employee of the temp agency... Employee misclassification is frequently abused so don't get me wrong, I think it happens a lot, but in many cases people are misclassified.

Shor’s algorithm has been a godsend to the quantum industry, leading to untold amounts of funding from government security agencies all over the world. However, the commonly forgotten caveat here is that there are many alternative cryptographic schemes that are not vulnerable to quantum computers. It would be far from impossible to simply replace these vulnerable schemes with so-called “quantum-secure” ones.

New cryptography can take 20 years or more to be fully deployed to all National Security Systems. NSS equipment is often used for decades after deployment. National security information intelligence value varies depending on classification, sensitivity, and subject, but it can require protection for many decades. -NSA

The solutions we do have do not work very well. Only the weakest FALCON-512 (bad name as it was only 64 bits of quantum security, now the dual lattice attack seems to reduce this to 20?), actually fits the TLS use case without breaking the internet. The signatures are just too big. Cloudflare has testing that proves this.

If that wasn't enough, this person is completely unaware of the annual survey of quantum researches that actually puts the arrivial of a cryptanalyically relevant quantum computer at 2030 or so. Peter Shor is actually one of the people polled in the survey, this person is not. And if you parts are still clean, you can look at the surveys estimates since 2018. These estimates are clearly trending towards sooner and sooner, instead of further and futher away.
