Browsers track visits in their history, Firefox for example in a file called "places.sqlite" which you could copy and use as a base log.

If you don't mind a bit of tinkering and are a Linux user, you can start with a squid proxy on your server which will keep a log. That could be a Raspi at home. Your browser can connect to that server, either directly, or via SOCKS5 or even an ssh tunnel if the proxy is running on your (external) server.

These ssh tunnels are very flexible things. I use an ssh tunnel and SOCK5 on top of that so my network cannot be traced by my provider. The tunnel is set up in a terminal window like

ssh -D 8080 -l user proxy.mydomain.net sleep $[45*60]

and the browser (Firefox for example) is configured to use the proxy at "localhost:8080" which routes its network connection through the tunnel exiting at my server. The "sleep ..." is any command you want to run instead of a real login session, i.e. you can just drop it if you want. One can add a proxy into this chain. Or use "ssh -v -D ..." to get a log where you can extract your destinations.

The AI part would not trivial in general, and especially because of "content creators" and "SEE optimizers" ... and last but not least dynamic web pages.

I got me an Acer Chromebook (Acer Chromebook CB314-1H-C2KX 14) for 129 EUR on Prime Day this year.

I used it for developing a game app, teaching my daughter programming over the summer holidays. The machine did pretty well for this purpose, running all the applications we required decently. Even Blender runs and can be used for simple tasks but I wouldn't want to work with such a heavy app nine to five on the little machine. Godot for a 2D game is absolutely fine though, we haven't used 3D much but that was OK too.

A nice thing was, that we could open and analyze competing Android games on the same machine. We couldn't have done this on a pure Linux machine.

I'd say Chrome Books are a very good fit for your stated requirements if you can live with the privacy implications of owning a Google device.
Well yes, like I said it was me reducing it to absurdity :-) But what you said makes sense(in the context of everything else I know about the American tipping system).
All the reviews in the article are also scattered across different platforms, he posted his on Google Maps, another one is on TripAdvisor and another one on Facebook.

Yes, it was the moment I personally realized we were in eternal September :(
What I've come to find an interesting element of monopolies is that virtually all that I can think of seem to be fundamentally networked entities. That might be physical (railroads, utilities, communications, broadcast) or logical (marketing, wholesale, retail), and might involve edges/links (rail, comms), vertices/nodes (ports, datacentres), or quite often a mix of both.

All tend to see some large realm over which there is an increasing return to scale (if there weren't, monopolies wouldn't form), and quite often a single entity may be established over multiple networks or modalities (e.g, Google controlling search, online advertising, and Web browser development).

I've been hard pressed to come up with examples of monopolies which aren't describable as networks, though that description may not at first be obvious.

Non-government-sanctioned monopolies exist as (illegal) drugs cartels, criminal syndicates, and warlord hierarchies, in which growth and maintenance of the network is typically obtained through direct (and non-legally sanctioned) force of arms, coercion, or intimidation.

Complaining about -1 downvote is useless. Even if you post a perfectly good comment, someone could accidentally fat-fingered the downvote button (the buttons are small and very close to each other). Some people even downvote everything they disagree with regardless the quality of the comment itself.
I think the "innocent until proven guilty" rule that we have in our justice system prevents things like this to happen (best effort of course).

But for these companies, it's probably easier and cheaper to do the "guilty until proven innocent" strategy. That's probably also the reason why they don't want to disclose why he was banned, because he could make a stronger case for himself.

Source?

Also, even if that was the case, when the scale is that big, the problem might not be gone. E.g.:

- Some cities might have more of the exclusive listings than others.

- Exclusive listings might share some common traits; some people might be interested in booking these places only.

- etc

At least for me, Chrome was always faster than Firefox, though this always came at a substantial cost in RAM demands among other computer resources. This difference in speed has only become more and more apparent over the years as more and more websites have gotten bloated with reams of JavaShit and HTML5 nonsense.

I'm also of the impression that Mozilla and Google's respective marketing ultimately had a very minor impact on overall adoption. The key driver behind Firefox and subsequently Chrome's mainstream adoption was initial uptake by power users who then spread it to the commons by word of mouth. The latter is arguably still ongoing, seeing as OS-default browsers like Edge (let alone third-party browsers like Firefox) still can't even hope to compete with Chrome.

Minimum wage is still the floor. The restaurant has to pay the difference if they are under.
Taken in combination, the two words "Commercial Unix" historically refer to Unix from Sun Microsystems, HP, IBM or SGI. They are not a reference to all variants of Unix that are sold.

I think there's a strong case for regulating automated decisions. But when there's a human in the loop, as there seems to have been here, I think you start to run up against the limits of what any reasonable regulation could do.

I really do wonder what happens when someone uploads a fake ID. Can they catch that (after all, the check is probably automatic in most instances since they don't have the personell), and if they do, would they try to take that person to court?
We recently had a spate of tech companies named after common programming terms - "Buffer" and such. Seemed a bit vague and low-effort for my liking.
If I'm understanding you correctly, you're saying that gamification is addictive and traps people into the small catalog of gamified apps? While I agree that a tolerance to more "painful" material is useful for broadening your reach, it's still possible to do both.

Similar experience with VRBO, booked an apartment in Munich, on arrival, turns out it was completely different than advertised (even the photos were different). We only stayed a single night, because the room situation just wasn't suitable for two adults. VRBO and the owner refused to refund us. After pointing out the discrepancies, and providing proof that the owners were using the same listing for different properties, VRBO only refunded their fee to us, claiming the transaction was really between us and the owner...

Sorry you're going through this. I had to deal with construction 10 meters away from my window for a year and it is incredible how much it affects your mental state.

My suggestions:
* Move somewhere quieter if you can and if there is no foreseeable end to the noise.

* Practice techniques for calming yourself and accepting the noise.

* Put earplugs in and then play loud music/audio through over the ear headphones.
Which was the whole point of the Maginot line, to channel the German advance through Belgium where a defensive line was to be established, so it was a success. Everything else - reconnaissance, defence of a forrest thought impenetrable to mass formations, coordination, adaptability to the changing environment (the Germans pouring through the supposedly impenetrable forrest), officer competency, coordination between army and air force, and coordination with the British, were massive failures.

Absolutely. If the status quo sees ideas as a risk to reduce, clearly it's fragile.
> Steve, like any other human, is a shade of grey. He did some awful things and some great ones. That's that. It neither makes him a monster nor a saint. It makes him a... Human.

This statement is a truism; it's valid for every person, and it doesn't contain any information.

Based on the information publicly available, my assessment is that he had a narcissistic personality disorder. People with such illness are certainly not in the ballpark of mass murders, but they're definitely very damaging to other people, and they are generally labelled as "bad people". What saves Steve Jobs in the eyes of the public is that he had, without any doubt, exceptional talents.

Since he's dead (and he hasn't been diagnosed by a specialist), there will never be certainty, however.
> This is like our governments saying we are paying too much for judicial system and prisons and so from now on we will allow lynchings and anybody caught doing anything wrong is going to be shot.

It’s kind of what have been happening recently. There is too much crime for governments to handle, so they leave criminals alone and only fine the willing citizens who pose no risk. In France it’s impossible to get a theft, beating-up, knife attack complaint processed, and rape counts are “dealt with” at the police station level, rarely going to a court.

Not really: some niches get competed out as a side-effect of addressing a large market.

VC almost exclusively invests in businesses that have a large TAM (Total Addressable Market) and a VC is not invested in a business that has a small, niche market. The VC model is invest x millions, aim for one win in the billions that gets all the return to the fund, and then cut the losses for all the other fund’s investments that didn’t win big (wind-up or sell - recover the VCs preferential money and don’t give a shit if common share holders like founders get $0).

What you appear to be saying is that large technology companies are designed from the ground up around flouting the laws about data retention.

Why is this OK?
> Unless of course you think people who are bad servers don't deserve to make minimum wage.

Why should the responsibility of paying a bonus (a tip) to the server fall on the customer? Why shouldn't the business be held responsible for paying them the bonus? As someone from Europe, I find it difficult to wrap my head around the fact that it is somehow customer's responsibility to pay them a bonus/tip even if there has been a bad service. In my mind it should clearly be the responsibility of the business to pay them what they deserve.

I do the same thing but in one big text file. I store all my general notes there. If it's an article I want to come back to, I write "article", if it's a video, then "video", etc. I also write any other keywords and/or information that I might find useful when coming back to it. Then it's a text search away.

I remember it too. I think it's not purely the case you described in your first comment. We are talking bootstrapping here but they have poured 10M into it of their own money, which is not a bad funding round at all? The competing product was another startup, not a big co.

Also, they not only destroyed them on marketing, but the founder himself admitted that he noticed their product just got better over time plus they had core issues with their own product (no cross platform apps from the start, bugs, they had to rewrite all their clients) - so the competing offering was not sub-par, at least not in the long term and it turned out that the original product had issues before the competing product even arrived.

I'm curious though, are there any examples of a big corp cloning a small product and driving it out of existence? Or similar VC-backed vs. no VC-backed startups.

The phrase means Sun Microsystems, HP, IBM and SGI variants of Unix.

The lstein fork [1] of the CompVis main repo is working on "Apple Silicon" based machines (and may work on Intel based too). It's not very fast though, ~3.5 minutes for 50 steps on my 16GB M1 Mini, whereas I understand that a 3080 can spit them out in the 30 second range. M<x> machines with higher GPU core count I would suppose are faster.

Stellarators do not solve the problem, they would heat evenly too. (TRIZ drums) What is needed is some sort of "abblative" migrating system, that leaves behind its heat to harvest, while the fusion process travels onwards, stressing other rejuvinated parts of the containement vessel. Basically, a series of reactors, pumping the plasma in circles once ignited.

Or we dump the whole idea, call it a day and pump all the money into musks larange solar power plant. Which ironically is a fusion containement in the distance power scheme. Which then will have problem with solar winds. Funny how the small plant mirrors the problems of the larger soon to be plant.
Those are very solid arguments for not allowing businesses to pay less than minimum wage, or for (as an individual) not visiting places that allow businesses to pay less than minimum wage. They aren’t terribly relevant to the situation where you just ate somewhere that does pay less than minimum wage.

Could you describe what the west should do instead, a little more specifically?

There isn't a war, according to one of the combatants, so "ending the war" is a too vague. What does "end the war" mean when one of the combatants claims that there is no war? I think it's better to discuss how to end one the nasty results, and I chose the deportations of children. Not for any particular reason, just because it's of the concrete things we all want to stop.

The Russians have deported a staggering number of children (almost as many children as live in Berlin), both from areas near the frontline and areas far from it. Could you describe what the west might to do to stop those deportations? Something more effective than delivering weapons?
For RCA (mentioned above), this happened due to bad management.

The company ignored its core competence in electronics and semiconductors, and attempted to become a conglomerate.

In the end stages, it was known as "Rugs, Chickens, and Automobiles" (RCA).

The one good thing that RCA did at this end was to train the engineers behind TSMC, UMC and Mediatek.

There is no problem with assuming such a Turing machine exists so long as you compare only measurements of information with respect to that Turing machine. Generally what is relevant to study is entropy differences anyway.

I don't know much about AIT in specific, but it seems that Chaitin 1975 (https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/321892.321894) acknowledges this, as the algorithmic entropy differs from the usual Shannon entropy by a constant term, which one might imagine is the information needed to encode the Turing machine.

I also wanted to mention that because you thought of the information theoretic implications of building a computer, etc., you might be interested to know that this kind of thinking is very interesting and cutting edge in biophysics. Organisms have to essentially build computers to do certain tasks, and in this way they must take into account both Shannon entropy (i.e., information in the abstract sense) and thermodynamic entropy! This is essentially the Maxwell's demon paradox (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell's_demon).
