That is not an expansion. Founders understood freedom of speech to be a “natural” right, not a “positive” or “negative” right.
Self-driving cars are the least obvious scam on the list, for sure.

The reason we appear so close is that well over 90% of driving is incredibly easy and can be performed without a sentient human being. This creates the impression that we're 90% there when we're nowhere near that close. We have decades of research to borrow from on this matter from drunk drivers, who are a perfect proxy for artificially intelligent machines attempting to drive automobiles without a sober human's fuzzy logic reasoning skills.

Both Big Tech and drunk drivers are very emboldened by that 90% of driving that doesn't require thinking and that 99% of driving that's not a life-or-death test of fuzzy logic reasoning skills.
How about requiring person A to bake a cake for person B?

After seeing Garmin GPS units duct taped in Russian cockpits and cannon cameras in drones we can probably exclude Russia.

China is still incapable of building complex home grown avionics and more importantly propulsive systems.

When you are still reliant on licensing jet engines you probably aren’t flying nearly physics breaking aircraft.

EW is a possibility however sensor spoofing still requires an asset near by and one with a lot of on board power.

Many of those incidents weren’t where Russia or China could realistically deploy assets too.

Right now the most plausible scenario (other than sensor artifacts and delusions) is that it’s either the US themselves doing it in secret or the private sector they are the only ones with the means to really test systems like the ones observed so far.
Another excellent paper on the similarities between all those linear models is “ A Unifying Review of Linear Gaussian Models”

> Factor analysis, principal component analysis, mixtures of gaussian clusters, vector quantization, Kalman filter models, and hidden Markov models can all be unified as variations of unsupervised learning under a single basic generative model.

100% not worth it. If you need multi-host for some reason (beyond “I want it” - and you don’t) then try docker swarm.

It’s your home environment. You want it to be easy. You want to use the tools you run not maintain them. If you want to learn k8 for professional growth, learn it separately from a home server.

Your home server can be more pet than cattle.
There's a substitution, here.

The GP's statement is still roughly correct: approximately anyone can use the internet to communicate.

There is no way to "rule some levels out". The levels only differ in the quality of the lz matches. Slower levels search further potential matches - you cannot see that from a compressed stream.

You can compare the output from each level and that will be your guess, assuming of course that zlib was used in the first place.
I can see that. For me, I’m not familiar with that phrase as an idiom, I’ve not encountered it before. It’s likely landing differently than for someone who experiences it as a common expression.
Porn is speech according to the Supreme Court. The minute we ban child pornography we no longer support unlimited free speech. So pretending that’s the line we are still holding is a rhetorical device rather than a helpful contribution to the discussion on free speech. In practice nowhere in the world supports unlimited free speech and we all draw a line somewhere the question is where we draw the line.
No, it actually is that simple. Recreational drugs that significantly change your state of mind and that create chemical dependencies (this includes alcohol), or that permanently make you mentally ill are, in fact, bad, and their careless use should be shunned.
Relatedly, I’ve come full circle on my feelings when it comes to Indian movies. I grew up with Bollywood/lollywood movies, and pretty much stopped watching all of this silly stuff upon arriving to America and thought the breaking out in a song in the middle of things was absurd.

I don’t know what changed but now I’m not just down with it I’m actually a big fan. I’m there to be entertained - give me Gesamtkunstwerk; I’ll suspend belief for those few brief moments, give me wonderful melodies and over-the-top sights. All types of art each have their place! I mean, we put up with soliloquys in Shakespeare plays, we cherish fanciful wordplay, why not give me songs!
Imagine thinking that about those boring-ass centrist websites.
I would disagree. Both of the examples of other characters that I gave were coincident with the Simpsons original run, and those characters feel more relevant today than the Ned does in Dead Putters Society.

He still is shitty to Tod, so it’s not like he’s a satirically perfect dad; he lives in a roughly equally sized home to Homer, so it’s not like some inequality comment. Everything is just a little off all in. Even within the context of Bush’s America.
It is possible on quite a few modern Android phones to access raw receiver data and do post-processing using a rinet file to get mm-level accuracy.

Usually people don't associate the Middle Ages with "relativism", it's more known for the crusades which were hardly an endeavour rooted in cultural relativism, although there were certainly relativists in the Middle Ages.

As you say, determining and disseminating truth is not straight forward and I think you really have to read between the lines when you hear people say things like "Hear her truth" is that these are often people who allege certain classes of people have long had their actual testimony ignored by society because of who they are. Also most of the time people say this, they're saying this regarding fundamentally uncertain situations where uninvolved parties can never be 100% sure of the truth. So there is a political/practical/contextual aspect to these epistemological statements.
Because even if there is no back-end service, _the developer's code_, running on your device, will have access to your messages. It is a matter of semantics, granted, but that is what it means.
It's known as the 'urban canyon' effect.

It can be significantly reduced if the GPS has access to a 3d model of the nearby buildings - then the GPS can guess which signals are probably reflections and which are direct.

Alas, I think this isn't done outside data centers/labs, because the data download to have a large 3d model to get a GPS fix isn't a service anyone wants to run for free.
Honestly, a lot of the criticism reads like a tin-foil fan theory. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

And some of it makes me question the author's familiarity with the actual background.

> he’s seen assuming a wardrobe that invokes his namesake Rama

No, he assumes a wardrobe that invokes Alluri Sitaramaraju, the historical figure his character is based on: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alluri_Sitarama_Raju

And this popular representation and the fictional fiancee named Sita come from a classic 1974 movie: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alluri_Seetarama_Raju_(film)

Rajamouli is not exactly big on subtlety. If the troubling implications need so much ink to explain, maybe the implications aren't actually there?

> Essentially it’s holding up some of the more radical freedom fighters and downplaying the more pacifist and equitable ones

Sardar Patel, Chidambaram Pillai and Tanguturi Prakasam were not radicals, they were lifelong members of the INC and were committed to Gandhian non-violence. Bhagat Singh and Subhash Chandra Bose were capital S Socialists, it doesn't get more equitable than that. This argument would have held weight if someone like Savarkar was included. As it stands, it makes no sense.
Literally every covid thread has someone how thinks its not real. They post extensively on every thread that brings up their trigger topic unless actually banned. This isn't a good way to discern public sentiment among hacker news readers.

Punishing people for "free speech" is a complex topic not a binary decision. Plenty of hateful speech that threatens or harasses could already be deemed a crime if its specific enough. I have no problem with punishing people for saying the same damn things about groups of people. If you say kill all the jews, straight to jail. If you say kill all the Texans likewise straight to jail. It's fundamentally dangerous to leave that unpunished because from like minded people reinforcing each others hate and violence is born both the crazies that pop off and do it and the societal movements which ultimately enact hate on a grand scale.

Everyone has a line. We just disagree where to draw it.
Maybe. In that example, if the service has run for over a decade, it seems plausible that whatever contractual penalties they would have had to pay out for occasional downtimes would be far less than the initial and ongoing development time required to implement a far more complex solution, not to mention the additional hardware/cloud costs.
Yes. This is a good indication that the problem is not well understood and needs further analysis.
Wireguard VPN. But they disclose your real IP to websites served by Cloudflare, so it’s kind of unusual. I use it to circumvent my country censure.

I'm not even sure what the measurement would be. It's like asking what portion of humanity didn't suffer any food insecurity back in the 1500s. It's gonna depend on a lot of variables.

It's probably somewhere <5%, maybe <1%, right now (I would include current successful retirees).

Some carriers (for example, all the major carriers in the U.S., Telekom in Germany, and Vodafone in Australia) have eSIM "Quick Transfer", which requires no contact with the carrier at all:

It's just a series of steps that you do on both phones, not that different than transferring a physical SIM.
The out-of-the-box settings yield dark, flat images, and no amount of twiddling on my part even approximates something pleasant, much less Fuji's defaults. If I could find a set of defaults for raw processing I liked, I might have stuck with it.

But seriously, the out-of-the-camera JPGs are _ridiculously_ good. Sure, you're throwing away information, but I found I very rarely used that information.

If I'm doing something particularly intricate, complex, or delicate I might shoot raw. For walking around the city taking snapshots? JPG is more than fine.
League of Legends is one such game as well.
"Let them eat cake" is a famous example of "not reading the room" because it was said while French peasants were starving and the royals feasted. Its an incredibly crass thing to say, like bragging about your wealth while your next door neighbor is being evicted.

By comparison here is a CEO announcing a noble "sacrifice" at 3 million/yr salary while people and projects were being axed at Mozilla - and in my view Mozilla continues to falter relative to what its trajectory could have been given the extreme amounts of capitol and talent they've had access to.

A real sacrifice would've been to take $0 (presumably this individual is already enormously wealthy).
Cold start would be just as much of a problem on lambda, no? Which is to say, it would or wouldn't be a problem depending on your needs modulo language/runtime choice. If we expect to compute for >15 minutes, cold start is probably not a big deal.

Yes, VPN via wireguard. Quote from their blog (https://blog.cloudflare.com/warp-for-desktop/):

WARP was built on the philosophy that even people who don’t know what “VPN” stands for should be able to still easily get the protection a VPN offers. For those of us unfortunately very familiar with traditional corporate VPNs, something better was needed. Enter our own WireGuard implementation called BoringTun.

The WARP application uses BoringTun to encrypt all the traffic from your device and send it directly to Cloudflare’s edge, ensuring that no one in between is snooping on what you're doing.
I don't believe the intention was padding the size, given the main shipping format was disks rather than downloads, but perhaps you're thinking of this?

I'm curious when that happened. I hear people say it all the time. But I'm old enough to have grown up before the commercial internet, and I don't remember there being any widespread conception of "free speech" apart from limitations on state censorship.

For instance, I suspect if some antisemitic nuts in say, the 1960s, had wanted to buy a full page ad in the NYT with some elders-of-zion type conspiracy ad, complete with hook-nosed caricature of a jewish banker, and the NYT refused to run the ad, nobody would have raised any objection on "free speech" grounds.

Can you think of any examples of extra-legal "free speech as a popular concept", pre-Internet?

That's the point of dual licensing: companies will need to purchase a closed source license.

Lots of folks are late night hackers and Free Software enthusiast. They'll use it and pass the good word along to the Big Corp they work for.

That's no different than proprietary software.
My comment refers to "oats" in the quotation, something that can obviously replace sugary boxed cereals.

But, on your topic, modern muesli is more like an unroasted granola mix these days. Mostly grains like oats and nuts. The original recipe even prescribes the pit and core of an apple.
iOS supports ad-blockers. Granted they're not uBlock Origin—they basically just giant dictionaries of domains to block—but they do work and work well.
I do think it depends.

I love infinite scrolling for random content. There is no “position” so to speak. And there is no concept of “find” since you don’t know what you’re looking for. “Back” continues to work as long as your browser cached the previous page state.

Sometimes you really do want to simulate an infinite list of 4,000,000 entries!

Since I got access to Dall-E, I got obsessed with AI tools, and I was really excited to see Stable Diffusion offer an API.
I couldn't find a tool that made it super easy to generate high quality images, so I made one.

The backend was made with Laravel, the frontend uses Laravel Blade views with VueJS where needed and TailwindCSS for styling.

It's more than that too, old receivers couldn't track and download from as many satellites at once. All modern receivers can pull almanac/ephemeris data from pretty much everything they see at once now.

>Yup, that's me. What's wrong with that according to you?

Well for starters you are quoting him wrong and by the formulations that you, yourself are using, you, yourself, ought to be silenced through violence.

When Popper talks about tolerance he is talking about tolerance of ideas not tolerance as in yay oppressed groups, it's not a paradox unless you use that meaning. Even the Wikipedia article points to this.

As long as you can talk about things you ought to use that, it is when a group tries to forcefully silence other that that group, specifically, has to be repressed through violence, because otherwise they are able to impose their intolerance of ideas upon the system and will eventually overtake it.
It's funny I've been down voted for speaking my mind about observations I've made over years of using my current phone and the trend is true for my past android phones. I've had 3 other android phones.

The last one, Nexus 6, I dropped and the gorilla glass cracked really bad, figured it was a loss and got my current LG phone and it has been great except for the suspicious slow downs which cannot be attributed to wear of the storage. I say that as someone who has been a technological person for 5 decades and a paid software engineer for almost 3 decades.

The one before that, Nexus 4, the thing was charging on my desk, I looked over and saw it bulging like it was going to explode.

The one before that, Nexus One, I still have, had to stop using it when the hard wired paltry amount of system space and increasing OS size made it unusable. Glad they stopped that practice of forcing the OS into a tiny space.

I like my LG so it's too bad they got out of or announced they are leaving the phone business.

I've traded several thousand of my dollars to Google for their phones since they started making them. I never owned iPhone, have no plans to either.

I really can't think it's relevant in a thread steeped in talk about Twitter and deplatforming on social media.
Yes, but if you DO lose a byte or two, it may render the whole thing unreadable, at least without getting into forensics.
However, the noise floor on these m43 sensors are nowhere near the full frame counterparts, unfortunately. Getting same resolution requires much smaller pixels, too.

I love more compact systems, but we can’t bend physics, for now.
Does GNSS chipsets in phones really support two way communication? Sounds like something that would need specialized antennas and high output power, not exactly something that can be hidden at least.

Galileo also supports or maybe will support emergency beacons from the ground.

> I've thought about this idea (without knowing there was a term for it!)

I used to call it the "Kramer Effect", much like you, without knowing it was called Flanderization and was using it in the early 2000s to describe my displeasure with the character Joey from Friends.

Joey went from kind of low intellect to full retard by the end of the show and very inexplicably.
But he’s not that good of a father. Dead Putters Society Ned is a villain for doing the exact same thing to Tod as Homer does to Bart.

I’m not saying it’s bad, it’s just a little off and somewhat muddy, because the character is still so undeveloped.
Whether or not it is against the rules or can get you banned isn’t really relevant to whether it’s hypocritical in the context of this discussion.

Immature undergrads shouting down speech they disagree with on campus has been going on for years too, no?
It always surprises me the right wants to ban books. After all they want minors to read a book with beastiality in it. It will be fun to see what the courts say on banning the bible from elementary schools in Florida on the grounds that beastiality is not age appropriate.
I've been thinking about getting one of those, I would really want to buy a GPSMap 66sr but I also use InReach a lot. Which the 66i has, but it lacks the dual-band GPS... So neither option is really perfect. And it's a big expense for me so I don't want to buy something that gets superseded a month later (again)

In the end I decided I'd wait until Garmin comes up with a GPSMap which has both dualband and InReach. But it's turning out a long wait.. They did come up with a replacement for the InReach Mini I'm using so its resale value has also dropped in the meantime :(

So for now I'm still using the InReach Mini 1 + my crappy phone GPS.
There is an ongoing campaign to get a legal forum completely removed from the internet. A twitch and twitter mob managed to pressure parts of internet infrastructure like Cloudflare and hCaptcha to drop them mere days after the campaign began. Even Archive.org reneged on their core mission and have removed all records.

Archive.today is now under intense pressure to do the same because they still have a record of the thread that kicked off the whole campaign: https://archive.ph/uLpNt

The next step is pressuring ISPs. Do we still believe in net neutrality? At what point has this gone too far?
