For those interested further, in some of the past few weeks youtube-dl had stopped working intermittently for multiple hours at a time, and it was precisely related to this code.

We have a custom-made Discord music bot on our server which uses ytdl to stream songs so we can listen together, and at one point we were listening and suddenly got some obscure JavaScript error.

We began joking that there's some bug in the code which breaks it after 6PM, but later found out that Google had changed some of the obfuscated JS and this basically broke this part of code, which prevented us from fetching the song information.

You can auto-renew the domain. Even better you can manually renew it for the max number of years allowed by the registry (10 years for a .com).
All of the above, really.
you can literally pay for the product (e.g., an ISP services) and still have meta data you generate bundled and sold.

the saying is overused and mostly misleading, unfortunately.
It's pretty much the only acceptable thing to talk about, probably on purpose.
Serious question: How do you think continually rising production, consumption and growth is even possible on one finite planet?

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.

Certainly, which is why I used the specific example of "saying racist things on the internet". It isn't a threat or harassment to tweet about how "those filthy stinking Norwegians keep sneaking into our country on reindeer-back and we need to deport them all before they molest our horses" but it would still be a crime in the UK as hate speech.
I absolutely loved Baahubali and watched RRR last night for the first time. I'm planning to watch KFG tonight. I'd highly recommend Tumbbad: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumbbad too.
The tropes page mentions there's a bit of distinction between writer's figuring out the character; flanderization is addressing the point after the character is basically fleshed out, then accentuating whatever they are, often past the point of caricature as time goes on. So more of a long term process. I agree it doesn't have to be bad thing, I'd go so far as to say it is inevitable to large degree. It is writers jobs simply to manage this natural/inevitable dynamic, be careful with it, and eventually end the show before it loses it's appeal. Sort of a lifecycle of "success" of writing interesting characters especially in sitcoms where personality/humor dominates story, and there will be diminishing returns as character evolves to self parody.
We only need to talk about the carbon footprints of the rich because the environmental movement has positioned everything in terms of asceticism and sacrifice. No one talks about the unequal consumption of high end furniture, art, entertainment, or spa visits because all of those things are managed by price signals. The whole point of being rich is to be able to consume more. The problem is that we aren't pricing environmental impact.
> This means that color for X-Trans is sampled from a 50% larger area, which 1) reduces noise 2) makes noise look slightly "better" than bayer noise

X-Trans has less color sampling per unit area, so you get more chroma noise.

So the demosaicing either gets lots of color artifacts, or it has lots of baked in chroma noise reduction.

On Bayer, you can simply choose a different demosaic method (IGV or LMMSE, for example), or apply additional chroma noise reduction, and the playing field is leveled noise-wise.
This movie looks EPIC where can we stream it??
It will only get worse from here.

Maybe instead of arguing whether externalities should be internalized, maybe we consider how much of the externality should be internalized.
I'm kind of with you, specifically on the intolerance of intolerance.

But actually making it illegal is worrisome -- because that goes both ways (cue "religious freedom").

The best compromise today seems to be deplatforming, which in a sense is nothing new as we've long had the saying "power of the press belongs to those that own it".

The rabid hate speech of the right has done serious damage to the fabric of this country, and it is couched in such a way that making it illegal would be dangerous AF.

It bothers me to no end that free speech absolutists that refuse to recognize that some speech should not be amplified.
I wonder if AWS will ever increase this limit. I would love to know why they haven't yet or why they never will.
Mixed up in what way?

Note that if you have two observers a light-second apart, and they only choose what measurement to do 0.01 seconds before performing it, at least one of those choices affects both results.
Awesome. Even if it's likely incomplete, it might come in really handy for some scraping I need to do...
I use it for work as well. I have issues occasionally with it, but overall it's pretty stable. I'm in Michigan.
You might want to read up on the Extended Evolutionary Synthesis. It's a proposed extension to the modern synthesis of Dawkins' generation and includes concepts like multilevel selection and cultural evolution. It's currently a matter of debate and empirical verification in the field. But it's a lot more in line with my way of thinking about evolution as a constantly self-bootstrapping process finding new media to evolve. I subscribe to an evolutionary cosmology myself(not Sheldrake's drivel), but that's mostly just a pet theory I like to think about when I'm high :D
Thank you.

As far as I'm concerned, humanity's most fundamental responsibility is to lower its emissions, as much and as permanently as possible.

I am sick and tired of seeing the focus of this task muddied by instead focusing on who's responsible, mixing social justice with climate science, etc. I could not agree more with the spirit of this stuff, but however well-intentioned it may well be, it only serves to distract and fracture and slow us down.

Yes, 10 corporations are responsible for 75% of emissions (or whatever the meme statistic is); yes, celebrities flying short distances on private planes is egregious; yes, your own personal carbon footprint pales in comparison. And yes, it feels nice to abdicate personal responsibility and say "those corporations/rich people should be responsible." Great, now what?

To all of that I say: all of the above. We need everything from sweeping legislation to individual action, and everything in between, with as little bickering or blame-shifting as possible.

Maybe I wasn't clear. My criticism is this: they're logging the data. That leaves the door open to bad actors in the future, whether it's the next CEO, whether it's a government, or whether it's criminals who steal the data.

Pointing out that the company will revolve is not a criticism.

I do think it's kinda funny they are trying to oust your ISP and insert themselves, as the keeper of traffic logs. Either way, I guess we're going to choose a big corporation to trust.

Lastly, I don't think your point stands, when the quote says "we won't sell your data, EVER" (my emphasis)

So it's okay that teachers are allowed to discuss their heterosexual partners but not homosexual? And you consider this not to be a violation of free speech?
> But in these past 30 years, the emissions of the poorest 50% of people have grown hardly at all: They represented a little under 7% of global emissions in 1990, and they remain a little over 7% of global emissions today

In other words, their emissions grew over 60%, enough to keep pace with the emissions of everyone else.
Sorry I don't want to dox this account eventually by people being able to piece too much information together, but let's just say a larger European city and a smaller European city.

And yes, I'm grateful that those connections even exist, it's just a shame that specifically those two are the ones servicing those routes. I suspect that there might not be enough demand for a better airline to step in.

If someone says why they really like a book, you can just... skip that part. If you post a list of titles with zero context, the only people you're helping are those who just want a list of titles, which is almost certainly the minority.

The growing failure to speak about science, technology, and policy without politically coding the speech has caused irreparable damage to public science, technology, and policy discussion.

Perhaps the most egregious example was the liberal coding of vaccination during the pandemic, with the self-fulfilling prophecy that vaccine skepticism is for the other tribe of people who are bad.

You had people with preexisting conditions terrified of making a private medical decision because of the extreme political coding that both sides egged on to hysterical extremes.
For one thing, it would be nice if every directory had a hash that covered all its contents (recursively), like Git tree objects. That way, all sorts of tools that need to check which files in a directory tree have changed – including `git diff`, `make`, file sync tools, and indexed search tools – could immediately skip directories with no changes, without needing a separate fsmonitor tool. The cost would be higher overhead recalculating hashes when files are constantly being updated.

It would also be nice to support filesystem transactions, somewhat analogous to Git commits. POSIX file APIs make it difficult to avoid race conditions in the best circumstances, and extremely difficult if there’s a security boundary involved. You can never check something about a path (e.g. “is this a symlink?”) and then rely on that thing being true, because it could have been concurrently modified between the check and whatever you do next. So you have to rely on the limited atomic semantics available - for example, instead of explicitly checking for a symlink, you can use O_NOFOLLOW - but those are not always sufficient, depending on what you’re trying to do. It shouldn’t be this way. I should be able to take a frozen snapshot of the filesystem, inspect it to my heart’s content, make the changes I want, and finally atomically commit or abort.

Regarding copy-on-write clones, can any of those filesystems actually clone arbitrary directories? In APFS’s case, you can make copy-on-write clones of files, and you can make copy-on-write snapshots of entire volumes, but you can’t just take some random directory and make a copy-on-write clone of it (without individually cloning all the files under the directory). I believe the same limitation exists for some or all of the modern Linux filesystems.
The interesting yet potentially unpopular discussion I find here is that if the US which represents the large majority of that 1% were to really become introspective and start to break down all our ecologically destructive habits any country who doesn't share that level of self scrutability would breeze right past us on the global stage.

So we won't because it threatens our hegemony and there's no way to enforce this on every country in a way that actually matters so that it doesn't threaten their standing. So we're in a lock step dance into oblivion unless we can technology our way out of it and not rely on human nature.

That's why more efficient green technologies that don't also threaten a country's position on the world stage are important. Hopefully fusion works out!

I'm not sure if I would consider the societal effects of Tinder and Bumble as positive and inspirational. If anything is has impaired gender relations, lead to the massive spread of STDs and arguably made the world a worse place.

And regarding Wolfe Herd herself, it's the eternal question, how "self-made" can one be as the child of a very wealthy and well-connected property developer of Jewish background? How many free attempts at entrepreneurship would she have had until eventually something panned out?

It’s not like proof of work at all. It’s just a challenge and response; youtube includes a random number in the webpage for each video, and expects to see a request parameter with a particular value calculated from that random number when you request the video. If you don’t do the arithmetic it throttles you to 50kb/s.

Since the calculation of the response is done in JS, and they occasionally change the formula, some download programs are moving towards running the JS rather than trying to keep up with the changes.

It’s really just bullshit to make people’s lives harder.
I see parallels to the 2A movement -- laser focus on the part they like without recognition that other factors are at play as well.

Yes that is exactly what it is. Qwerty threads your thought with pain. Like fucking obvious the vowels should be on the home row, right? Well no because then people's typed words wouldn't be filtered through pain. Coercion and pain.

I actually owned the domain name qwertqwert.com pointing at a qwerty to dvorak translator, so any dvorak user could use dvorak on any computer without painful typing. I wanted it for myself. Got it to work, in fact...I think. So many successful projects not sure how high a fraction of them were successful.
They have no obligation, legally or otherwise, to host content they don't agree with. That isn't censoring. Are you censoring them for telling them what they can or can't do with their servers? You choose who you let in your house and if they say things which demean yourself, family, ie, associates, then like anyone I'm sure you might tell them you don't want to host them. If you're a store owner you have a right to tell someone to leave if they're denigrating other customers, ie, their desire, perhaps some might say right, to shop without harassment. I don't know why the obvious keeps having to be explained here.

Increase in efficiency allows population to grow without using more resources.

However, whether it grows is another question. Today, we are seeing a massive collapse in populations around the world, which is a huge problem and no one really knows the root cause.
Mithril has been around for 7 years. How old does it need to be before it's not "the new hotness"? Just because you haven't heard of something doesn't mean it's new, and it would behoove you to not immediately dismiss things that are new to you as things that are new in general.

Your heuristic that a large ecosystem is what makes a framework good precludes you from ever again touching any new project. It's a short-sighted approach.

At some point, you have to grow up as a developer and try to understand the real world problems that modern declarative web frameworks have solved. I stated that mithril will be my tool of choice for hopefully 20+ years, so your framing this as me getting lost in the new hotness doesn't even hold up. This is about real tools, which are useful today and tomorrow, and which have slow API churn to facilitate longevity. It's just a bonus that mithril is also faster and far more terse than React and friends.
Weird in general maybe, but I got the point: if they didn’t store the data, then future people couldn’t sell the data
The incentives encourage selling the data and there's no reason they can't just change their mind one day.

Nixon pioneered a lot of the modern culture war tactics. So it's in character that someone doing an anti-authoritarian stunt in the late-60s would do it against Nixon and his power structure.
The United web site experience is the biggest tire-fire I have ever seen from a F500 company. They literally ask you to use your credentials on multiple different domains, and every menu item seems to take you to a different domain where you are of course logged out.

United is a phisher’s dream target. No MFA possible, and they spam their customers with zillions of login links on dozens of different domains. I’ll bet you can register unitedcardawards.com and get thousands of credentials without even sending out phishing messages!

A recent episode of the podcast More or Less addressed that statistic. It turns out that 40% of provinces in Pakistan have declared an emergency due to flooding. Only (a still enormous and heartbreaking) 10-12% of the country is actually under water.
Neither of these restrict speech, and I'm not sure how one could construe the text of the laws toward that conclusion.

The first looks like regulation on social media activities, which is well within the boundaries of government - state or otherwise. Perhaps ill-advised, but "how to regulate the digital town square" is a pretty open and fluid debate, no? I don't see anything in there that says "this kind of speech is banned".

The second[1] looks like a workplace and education regulation, which is again well within the boundaries of things the government is charged with regulating. Honestly the text of the law looks pretty benign to me.

You are correct. Using a DAO / Web3 stuff for lobbying IS innovative.

I am just disgusted with the state of lobbying and campaign financing in the US.

Some members of Congress are so incestuously funded by corporations, special interest groups, and lobbying groups that they might as well wear NASCAR jumpsuits to show who they really work for: https://www.nascar.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/2018/09/CO...

Under that lens, a lobbying DAO is just another "patch" a politician could be wearing to show who sponsors them.

I believe Gaben was a PM (or PM manager/lead) during his time at microsoft. Lead dev is a bit misleading, since he led program management and has been listed as the producer, not the hands on lead developer. Not that he's not technical, just wasn't coding or leading technical development like a Carmack.
It is though…relative to the expenses necessary to live in certain areas.
Only because India and Africa skew the average by having extremely large population. Given a certain amount of wealth, they chose to divide it between more kids, of course each will have to consume less. Western countries chose low-density, i.e. have few kids per family, which means each can afford more. It was our sacrifice. Fewer kids. Smaller extended families, even for Christmas. Less human happiness. Everything bet on each kid. But at least each of them can afford housing, and our girls can leave home without having to find a husband, if ever.

China, on the other hand, deserves a much larger share of emissions, since, despite being overpopulated, they sacrificed themselves to be able to control overpopulation, and they work like crazy.

Summary: Divide carbon emissions by country, not by headcount, because if you calculate by headcount, you give incentive to reproduce like rabbits, which is causing global warming.

I use Cloudflare WARP for my home and smartphone and laptop. I really, really like the content policies I can configure. Getting the combo of VPN + DNS content filtering is really nice. I use it for blocking myself from accessing pornography and their security and deceptive website categories have been useful.

The interface for configuring the content policies is really easy to use too.

I also really like the browser isolation feature too - I use it to access links from emails I feel suspicious about.

Carbon footprint is a term invented by BP to deflect blame away from entities such as themselves onto individuals.

Individuals as in regular people of course. But really, so-called carbon footprint is more of a systemic issue than some naughty sin/indulgence that the rich commit.
My point still stands that beginning a conversation about science, technology, or policy with your finger squarely aimed at people you don't like will only serve to start an argument with the people you don't like.

So, they did it due to commercial reasons, not legal reasons? I assume they judged the commercial repercussions and decided keeping the content was a negative. Why do you think they should host it anyway?
