Seriously you're dead right. I just never get tired of that callback.
I wonder how difficult that would need to be in practice. Obfuscation just has to be enough that it creates enough ambiguity. All you'd have to do is make things like basic punctuation, capitalization, rate of typos, advanced word count, etc. consistent. Those are things that can be "statically analyzed" from one's genuine writing and be changed on the fly without needing an AI to know the meaning of a body of text.

Google is pants and the narrowing of collective imagination
Searching for parenting advice and being a veteran searchaholic, you realise that 99% of people (me very much included) will end up reading the exact same 10 pages of advice as everyone else. With virtually no idea who has written them, with a massive cognitive load to filter that advice.

When you apply that at scale you realise that on something as important as parenting advice the narrowing of our collective imagination is a dystopian nightmare.

It’s not even a debate, as the technical nuance and the philosophical complexities are just too strained.

This is part rant, part cry for help, part exhaustion, part there must be a need to surface the issue.
Billions of people still live under the framing that their religion is the only truth in the universe and think that prostitution is defined as some sort of bad thing according to their holy books.

Why are you surprised that some of them can find this community?
Just a few notes:

1. I'm not aware of any smart lock that cannot be locked and unlocked manually from the inside. This would violate fire code for residential structures in a lot of US jurisdictions.

2. Electronic locks in general are either line-powered or battery-powered. Line-powered locks are unusual in residential environments because of the higher complexity of installation (they're more often strikeplates than actuators, although in-door actuators are available).

Battery-powered locks take one of two approaches to resolving power issues: most commonly on residential locks, there is still a key cylinder on the outside to manually lock and unlock. Less commonly on residential locks but more typical of commercial ones, there may be no key cylinder but instead an external connector that allows the programming tool (very common on commercial systems) or a 9v battery (common on residential units) to be connected to provide external power.

3. Cloud-reliant smart locks are pretty rare for practical reasons. Most are still fully functional (often minus remote control via app, but not always) without internet service. Even most commercial systems fall back to cached credentials in the door controller when the connection to the access server is lost, although annoyingly some of the newer "smarter" systems don't.
As long as that poor woman is still on the hook for millions of dollars over some CDs or whatever I’m not pirating anything no matter how “safe” it is promised to be.
Wage workers generally have taxes withheld involuntarily, at least unless someone makes them manually override it.

Interestingly, that seems to trigger the taxman to start looking, which is when folks get busted. It’s in some mentioned anecdotes and articles here.

Even more interesting? If they instead just abandon the withheld taxes, no one seems interested in actually fixing the problem.

It would be trivial to mandate employers do realtime submissions of the employment eligibility paperwork for instance, but it’s actually illegal to send it to anyone, or attempt to do anything more with that information (like have a service somewhere that tracks these things and notifies employers of obviously invalid cases like a SSN being used across 5 states for 50 different job applications at different employers at once).

A cynical person would say it’s because as long as the people who need to be paid are getting paid, unskilled labor is cheap and easy to scare/boss around, illegal immigration is not actually a problem, but an opportunity for them.
Most homeless are effectively hiding from you. The ones you see are the ones who don't care about being seen, the mental/addicted.

I don’t know what you call short term, because this has been decades in the making. I’d at least call it medium term.

The flip side is now the US is more competitive globally as the products can be priced as such, in addition to consumer price decreases. You also have the issue that most Americans don’t want the ultra low paying jobs necessary to build all this stuff, nor want the environmental damage from the mining.

So it’s not so simple as just some greedy evil villains we can point to.

> entirely new concept.

The new concept was power amplification: a small effort causing a larger than "natural" effect.

E.g. you were always able to press a button to tinkle a bell, but pressing a button and obtaining a sustained electrical ringing was new.

Valves and transistors took it to the present stage, by cascading the effect of small inputs switching larger amounts of power from an external supply.

(Yes, power amplification could be done mechanically before electricity with energy from water, weights, etc. but it was too cumbersome.)

In my experience, tech companies contract out roles like security, food, janitorial, shipping, and even facilities, so those people would not be included in the 7000-person figure. The people who manage the relationships with the contracting companies are decidedly white-collar.

Anecdotally, I've seen an increasing trend of bloated engineering orgs across startups. Presumably this is motivated in part by a desire to be perceived as an innovative "Tech" company amongst investors.

I don't think it's a fair assumption that only sales/marketing orgs are oversized anymore. Oversized engineering orgs also lead to oversized opex spend due to added difficulty in having ~1k engineers contribute to a common code base.

I've spoken with Hauser about this - his point (in 2012 when I had the conversation) was that the UK simply did not have access to a market big enough to support a global champion. I said (given the date) but what about the EU and he said no, because in fact the single market is fractured and filled with barriers. I asked well, what about French and German Tech companies?

Hauser looked at me and said : yes.
It's true Matrix today doesn't implement end-to-end auth for room control messages, but it's a bit of a stretch to say you can spy on conversations in this way.

In a room where participants are verified with each other, you'd be warned of this with a loud red shield with an exclamation mark in the room header. Additionally, if you're extra worried about a room, there's a "Never send encrypted messages to unverified sessions in this room from this session" setting you can flip in the Element clients.

That said, this can and will be improved in the future, by signing room state events and implementing TOFU (trust-on-first-use) for user identities, so that you can have a large amount of protection even before you perform manual verification with other users.

Differing judicial philosophies will end up with different decisions.

Not reading there justifications for why they made a decision just because the judge does not align with ones political view is ignorance, plain and simple.

Only reading the critical analysis of any viewpoint or decision without reviewing their legal justifications will lead to massive derangement in ones perspective.

Law and high level court decisions will have some form of logic to them which is worth examining before dismissing them as partisan.

The Feds Served Ooki DAO Papers by Posting Them in an Online Discussion Forum
With apologies for linking to Facebook, the creator of Final Space (Olan Rogers) has posted publicly about the news he was given that Final Space was being removed from all platforms, with licenses not being renewed, and (if he's to be believed, which...he's been trustworthy in the past) that the show was basically produced for "tax write-off" purposes: https://www.facebook.com/olanrogersofficial/posts/pfbid02fuC...

Relevant bits:

Five years of my life.
Three seasons.
Blood, sweat, and tears...
....became a tax write-off for the network that owns Final Space.
Yup. That's it. That's why it's disappeared everywhere in the USA. Five years of work vanished.
When the license is up internationally, Netflix will take it down, and then it will be gone forever. There are no more physical copies of S1 and S2, and no physical copies of Season 3 were ever made. Your memory of Final Space will be the only proof it ever existed.
There is a value prop for sure.

It’s hard to quantify how best you’ll be served but a lot of people are following the mantra of “nobody got fired for going AWS”.

It makes sense for some people, others are cargo-culting; yet more are fanning the flames of that cargo cult because their pay check depends on it.

Sysadmins are/were paid much less than cloud native devops people, and you need the same number of them unless you keep things very simple, which cloud providers do not incentivise. One need only look at AWS reference architectures.

This is basically you refusing to believe in wealth and income inequality. Once you realize that the 99th percentile net worth is 100x the median net worth, and the 99th percentile income is 50x the median, and the 99.99th percentile is 50x the 99th, it should start to become clear. There are millions of people out there walking around with fairly large inherited assets and the only thing they can imagine doing with it is parking it all in real estate.

A lot of local brands have figured out that you can bootstrap a product locally and then just focus relentlessly on the American market, after which you can practically conquer the world.

Asian companies for some reason do this well. European companies fail horribly.

BlackRock buys stakes in investment firms that directly purchase real estate (some specifically SFH).

Those companies issue corporate debt (bonds) to buy houses.

The yield they need to offer goes down when the Fed manipulates bond prices by gobbling up non-corporate debt (US Treasuries & MBS).

BlackRock & other firms aren't taking on debt to invest in REITs - they're just directing more of their portofolio to REITs when The Fed drives down yields.
