I have a different question: why do folks create a username+password based AuthN system on their own, instead of leveraging OAuth and letting someone else deal with the hard part of managing passwords, resets, etc. Or use a service like FusionAuth or Auth0, or Keycloak, et al? With Spring Boot + Spring Security's OAuth, all the AuthN work is done by the framework and I only need specify some configuration parameters (client IDs, secret, etc.) and I don't deal with anything else.

Now User Profiles as a first-class thing would be nice (I really do not want to reimplement managing profiles), but there's a lot more variation there. Though some out-of-the-box basics would be nice: name, nickname, time zone, preferred contact info, etc.
> Moderators get rewarded with the rush of 'power'

Powermods have been detrimental to Reddit's health. There are some great communities with unpaid moderators who care about and foster their subreddits, but most of the prominent moderators don't care about their subreddits beyond the 'power'.
What you have described is nothing short of a horror dystopian hell scape. My God, listen to your self man!

> If no keywords were triggered for misinformation, and none of the eyeballs on that post marked it as misinformation or offensive

Keywords? Who decides the keywords? What are you going to do when normal words get a coded meaning. Remember “milk” and the “ok” sign. 4chan is going to have a field day with this! What about the ((( echos ))). You gonna write a regex for potential use of non letter characters?

Marked as misinformation. What, you’re going to ask the ministry of truth for input? Do you think this will achieve anything except build an echo chamber and increase division? The same for offensive. What’s going to happen when all posts by trans people are marked as offensive? Or that doesn’t count cause you’re ok with it. Should we establish a Ministry of Morality, perhaps with a morality police like the saudis to tell us what’s offensive and what’s not?

Everything you wrote is, I don’t even know how to call it. It’s evil. It’s evil, that’s what it is. You have though up an evil system whose only outcome will be oppression, division and resentment.
I think not many people ever got properly introduced to C++.

Some probably only saw it during their format education, and it's most likely been taught like C with classes and/or they had to use for stupid things.

There are also many forms of C++, there is your "old and regular" C++, game dev C++, there is modern C++, then there is "I only know C, but sure I can write C++" C++.

Pulling dependencies is not as simple as `npm i boost`.

Communities are small, segmented and not welcoming to newbies.

Absolute madness with build tools. I've never worked with CMake myself until last year, and I haven't so frustrated.

As for how many applications using C++ that's not really an argument — C++ was literally the only choice for many of them at that time.
I think that "large" really needs to be defined here. CPython is 350kloc of C. I have seen C++ codebases with more source files than there are lines of code in that. Just the "base" module of Qt is ~4million loc
The fallacy is the idea that people desperate for money choose gig work out of “free will”. They accept the terms dictated to them due to lack of options. True that they could choose to lose their homes and vehicles and live in a tent by the freeway.

I was assuming your question would be answered in the article but I guess they really didn't go into much detail. The short answer is no; the law is much more narrow than that, more about banning politicians to influence elections and bots are excluded.
Be very careful talking about competition or switching costs with gig work.

It is very easy to get and quit a gig job.

That's what makes it non zero sum. The marginal worker is better off, because this new marginal employer exists. Any down-the-line employer which isn't this one will be worse by definition.

You have made an incomplete point.

How exactly do their political positions figure into their ratings? Conservative judges are de facto unqualified? Left leaning judges get a pass?

If you have a concrete criticism of their rating practices you don't need to focus on their politics, do you?
You know what? You want to talk down Citizens United the organization, say I’m playing them as too scrappy and they’re really big money? … be my guest.

But don’t use your personal bank accounts to run businesses or charities, and don’t let anyone at the business or charities you might some day run do that either. That’s a massive red flag, the IRS will come auditing and looking for money laundering, and besides that there’s just an ocean of ways that can go wrong.

And the mechanism for sharing your account like you want already exists. It is called “incorporation”. That is like 85% of the point, easily. (That and doing things with the money, like entering into contracts or owning property.) You’re reinventing the corporation.

Anyway. The goal of CU was to air a movie (a stupid political hit-piece movie, I wouldn’t watch it, but it’s plenty politics).

I’m also a big fan of watching with CC (sometimes it can be genuinely hard to pick up what someone says and it can be key dialogue). However anything in the comedy genre is the exception since CC ruin the timing of the jokes.
If a corporation does any business with the government, they have to abide by the same First Amendment strictures as any government agency.
ZX81 was the first computer I ever used. I learnt to code on it. It led me down the path that made me gainfully employed all my adult life. It might have been built to a price point but that price point meant it could be afforded by my family and the rest is history.

I think there is value in the participants of a society, principally in the governance of a society, being educated and adhering to a certain set of common principles and sharing some level of culture.

Due to the lack of a good alternative, we allow anyone born in this country to be a citizen, and to vote at age 18. I wouldn't want random people who don't speak the language nor have any interest in sharing our culture or respect for human rights or democracy to have political power. (See: the importance of public education for a well-run society).

So let's say we allow an unlimited number of people in with almost no barrier, who may or may not share our political values or language, to live and work here. Sure, it's happened before in mass immigration movements. What if we said, "You can be here, but you can't vote until you are documented to have lived here for a certain period of time and can pass a citizenship test?"

That may work, but I wonder what will happen if we continue to have (as we now do) a two-tiered system ala Starship Troopers; one of citizens and one of "civilians" who do do not have political power. What are the impacts? I am not sure.

My core belief is that education and common values are important to a society, and I am concerned that unfettered immigration into this country would risk destroying whatever common culture/language we have over time.
The problem of course being that this ruling violates hundreds of years of cases and frameworks (and probably the constitution!), saying "we can rely on precedent" when this law flips precedent on its head is unhelpful.
Solar and wind have been the future for my whole life. Now we have an energy crisis. An artificial one for sure - we could open the pipes to Russia and they'd sell probably sell gas again - but a crisis nonetheless. The claim renewables are better was never true and the price of not stopping that deception is that now we face darkness.

As for nuclear, step one is certainly to stop listening to arguments like "it's too late, it would take too long to build":

"This is some grim real life dramatic irony: Nick Clegg opposing nuclear power in 2010 because it would only come on-stream by 2021 or 2022."
with all due respect: no I disagree and here's why.

The number 1 fear of a new or first-time event host is that nobody will show up to their party. People are TERRIFIED to host, they often DO NOT host, because of this. Or, worse, they worry that only 3 or 4 people will show up, and their event or party will be awkward.

What I've found is that the best way to get people to ACTUALLY show up (besides obviously throwing a great event with great people) is to remain top of mind. Does that feel a little spammy? Maybe. But each of the reminder messages helps to show that you take your event seriously. It shows that you're going to put on a thoughtful event.

I also include little "Guest Bios" in this message 4 days before. Guest Bios are like my Secret Weapon to getting great attendance. I wrote about them here: https://party.pro/guestbios/

I've hosted hundreds of events and sent thousands of reminder messages. I have never once been told, "You spammed me with too many reminder messages for a free party!" Instead I've seen around a 95% attendance rate, from the number of RSVPs to the actual number of attendees at the event.

Often times the advice about hosting a party seems obvious or counter-intuitive. And I think your response of "That's too many!" is, like, I think a lot of people feel that way? But I believe keeping an event top of mind is important if you're serious about having good attendance. Hope this didn't come across as an attack! I just want people to have a great event- and a lot of that simply boils down to good attendance. Open to pushback if you still feel strongly against it.
I have used vim-fugitive for years to read large and small codebases. Its blame and re-blame interface is the best I've found.
> This is not really the company's fault that the system is set up so people must work.

The problem is companies like this take advantage of this as a feature of the system, not a bug.

> Address that at the societal level.

And how’s that working? It’s needs to be addressed at multiple levels simultaneously for any progress to be made.

>We can start with building enough housing so people can afford rent making $3 per hour.

This is a ridiculous statement. Yes, there needs to be more housing, but resources aren’t infinite so there will always be a floor that steadily increases and systems based in reality must take that into account.
Most people won’t be negatively affected? How do you justify that? How many people in the USA southwest are affected by the mega drought? How many people in China are affected by their mega drought? How many people in Europe are affected by the heat waves? How many people on islands and coastal areas are affected by sea levels rising? How many peoples are affected by glaciers melting and less snowpacks (such as villages in the Himalayas)?

> Green tech requires massive amounts of dirty energy to produce

In theory, bootstrapping will eventually be complete.
What I'm saying is that the final sale price isn't the only relevant number here - Sony and MS are paying to develop the graphics architecture in the first place. That's revenue on the frontend that helps develop the chips in the first place. The B2B sales of the console chips that result are lower-margin than the dGPU sales into the broader consumer market, but, it's hundreds of millions of dollars of R&D money that AMD doesn't have to find elsewhere a half decade before the product goes to market. That money has a lot of time-value, because it's available now, not 5 years and 10 billion dollars from now.

Early VC funding rounds are way less than you'll see when your product goes to market too. Applying your accounting philosophy, a couple million bucks surely must be insignificant compared to billions of dollars of sales revenue we'll see later, right? And they want how much equity? What a terrible deal.

Except for the part where you fold years before you get to "later", of course.

And that was a very, very, very real concern with AMD. They were right on the edge for years and years during the Bulldozer years, Ryzen was very much a last-chance move for them and they were obviously still scraping bottom for the first couple years even then. There are numerous factors that all aligned to keep them alive - they would not have been alive without Intel misstepping on 14nm (the early days were very bad) and then 10nm, they would not have been alive without Apple writing huge R&D checks to advance TSMC 7nm and 5nm far enough ahead of the market that GloFo bowed out of the game, they would not have been alive without consoles keeping the lights on while they spent every penny on Zen R&D, and they would not have been alive without their interconnect turning all their IPs into legos and allowing them to break and scale them.

Things were really, really, really touch-and-go for AMD in 2016/2017/2018. I figured they were going under. I have no doubt that console R&D money (along with those other factors) was instrumental in keeping the lights on at RTG.

It’s not just installing panels homeowners will climb up to remove snow, do maintenance, etc.

You're assuming that this one is a three-year La Niña. You'll know whether this is a 3- or ≥4-year La Niña in about 18 months. The warmest seven years since records began have all been since 2015, so I wouldn't bet against a La Niña record now either.

One downside of having captions on all the time is that forced subtitles when characters are speaking a foreign language in an otherwise native language show are usually burned into the actual video stream instead of being in the same text file that the normal subtitles pull from, so a lot of lazy captions providers will put something like "<Walter speaking Spanish>" in the captions, which will then be displayed over the same space the burned in subtitles are for the entirety of the time they are speaking, meaning I have to rewind, turn off subtitles, rewatch the scene, then re enable the subtitles if I want to actual know what is going on.
This is really well-done, kudos!! A great resource.
The post showed exactly what the headline described.
The "do your own research" meme works better when the initiator can make the target go refer to a corpus of questionable content (that is often already ideologically skewed), actively filter out whatever they find benign, and zero in on whatever lights up their confirmation bias.
This. If you want more longevity, you can just not drive the batteries so abusively and they'll last quite a long time. There's a setting for this on devices from most major brands now, it basically locks out the top and bottom portions of the battery's voltage range for improved durability and sometimes reduces charge speed a bit. You can also do this manually with an app like Accubattery and raising the Low battery mode setting to kick in at a higher charge level. 10 years of battery service should be practically achievable on consumer electronics
This makes a good point.

Every person “above” these people in the economic hierarchy benefit from their dire situation, and there is very little incentive to change that structure.

“I’ll do whatever I can to help you from suffering from me being on your back, except getting off your back.”
We have different definitions of censorship. To me that is not censorship.

Censorship is making information functionality unavailable or altering it. Delete it or deliberately make it very hard to access or change it’s contents.

If you click a button or even add a message ( apart from the content ) that is not censorship. That’s why for example I don’t consider it censorship when youtube added covid messages to certain videos.
"In my opinion, if you subvert public spheres by making spheres of discussion that are more enticing, but still free, but obviously you make money from secondary means from it. This in itself is against free speech."

This is an interesting argument. However, if you are conservative especially, where does such specific extras for freedom of speech come from?

This also isn't something that would just come about because of social media. What if it's extremely cold in the street that you are protesting on but there's a walmart nearby, nice and toasty. All the townspeople who aren't are home are inside it.

It's free to go inside and open to the public. Should walmart not be able to restrict what I say inside

I don't think that's the hard part, component reusability and templating is what makes me use a UI framework (also the extra goodies that come with it like accessability, sensible design frameworks, etc.).
Many dams (Oriville for example) are important parts of flood mitigation - isn’t having the dams nearly full bad for that? Or is the rainy season over?
Yes, my comparison was to government as a concept, and the various forms of it we've seen, not specifically to our government or any modern one in existence in particular.

And like most governments, whether those people it considers under it's authority agree with that assessment or not is largely irrelevant, as the "law" they rule under is determined by the ruling group alone.
> Basically a dark age.

That's the real enormous issue. Beyond the Green New Deal, witch is green in the sense of dollars main color for very few, chemical/radioactive stereotypical waste leaking from abandoned rusty barrels green while being sold as grass green, we have a real issue: oil is consumed FAR faster than natural regeneration and that since many decades so far, witch means that a day perhaps not that far away it will be more and more scarce and finally unavailable. NOT ONLY for fuel, but also for plastic witch happen to be needed for electrical insulation, hydraulic and air insulation, anti-vibration stuff etc etc etc and we do not know how to replace it on scale.

So far no other feasible on scale energy solution exists. Nuclear fission and mountain pumped hydro are the most stable and powerful solution we have, but can't work on scale alone and nothing else is there.

Without energy no matter climate change or something else: any civilization collapse anyway.
I'm not super familiar with Rust, do you have SSE/AVX intrinsics (others?)? Can you write assembly embedded in Rust code? How does rust stack in terms of performance?

https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/...

looks quite decent, but overall Rust is still behind? So if I am in an area where performance (or cost/energy) is king then I'd still pick C++.
You could just change your keymap if you really need to. I used to remap / in my Spanish keyboards because normally it is shift+7.
"choose which speech they will AMPLIFY"

That makes private messages an interesting question, though. Or even cases where many people explicitly subscribe to a single voice -- is the platform really amplifying anything?

Blocking such messages (to specific recipients who specifically opt to receive them) seems materially different than declining to promote/amplify such messages.

I'm speaking from an ethical standpoint; it may or may not matter legally.
Well, you have a bad mental model then. It explains your position but you should try to update it.
Using prompt injection to exfil the initial (hidden) prompt
I love the idea of the Paradox grand strategy games, but they seem to me to be almost gratuitously complex. Everything has so. many. parameters. In turn, this seems to make the games (1) require learning a lot of details that are 'coincidental complexity' rather than 'essential complexity' (like a staggering number of unit types and combinations), serving only the purpose of having a (superficially) richer backdrop, and (2) involve a lot of micro-management at the most miniscule levels, again seemingly just to have those things in there, not necessarily because they make a big difference in how the game plays out.

This has kept me from jumping in. From my point of view, I would love it if there would be simple way to dumb down some of the systems, have the game handle some of the micro-management, possibly remove some of the nuance of units, traits, and so on. I know it exists in the games to some extent, but from what I have seen enabling these things in itself required quite a bit of work. Perhaps I just haven't looked hard enough.

So for now I am resorted to watching youtube playthroughs with some fascination. Maybe one day when I have a few weeks of time to spare, I will try my hand at one of these games.
The films (and the book) lack realism, in the quality that Giovanni Verga would have had heaps to borrow.

I'm not a free speech maximalist like many people in the US. I think many things should be against the law for people to say. Inciting violence, hate speech etc.

What concerns me about this is arbitrary use of the police and censorship to deny freedom of expression in a way that breaks no laws.

There is nothing in the UK that makes protesting the monarchy against the law. It is perfectly legal to assemble and protest the monarchy. In fact, that freedom is explicitly protected.
