I've had a TV that were nearly 200ms, but it was the absolute cheapest panel I could find.

If you don't configure your TV correctly sure, you could get massive amounts of lag. Even with an OLED display if you turn on all the post processing you're going to have problems. That's not really a fault of the TV though. I disable almost all post processing on my TVs and get a better picture without the downsides.

With digital receivers adding lag is minimal at best. Especially with newer models that don't draw on top of the source signal.
Dart is a really simple and ergonomic language to pick up, and there are all sorts of hobbyist languages and frameworks that have niche developer interest. It doesn't have to replace anything major to survive.
Nonsense. Issues like inability to revoke JWTs don't apply to bearer tokens where the API server needs to query the token issuer to found out who the user is (which can then implment revoking the token simply by dropping the record for the token from the DB, all further calls will fail the lookup!)

Remember they stated:

> Major advantage of JWT compared to bearer tokens [...] is that they don't require looking up the token.

Other problems with JWTs vs opaque bearer tokens they listed include:

- increased attack surface due to complexity of JSON parsing/validation

- misconfiguring JWT libraries to allow no signature

- leaking data to users because you thought JWTs were encrypted

Now you are right that some of the complexities involved with JWTs like refresh token can apply with arbitrary bearer tokens, especially if you want to limit the lifespan of the access token, but those are implementation choices. Technically you can just have a single long lived bearer token instead of a long lived refresh token, and a short lived access token.
If it were just an increased risk of charge backs, surely they could just charge them higher fees and make it work out. Or tell them they have to eat all the chargebacks.
That’s better. Thanks.
Credit card companies acting to limit risk from discretionary enforcement of ambiguous regulations is also sort of political.

Even if such a service existed, it wouldn't accomplish much. OEMs are free to change the design and internals of their products at any time and many have had no choice but to do so because of semiconductor shortages.

Yeah, I mean if you enable post processing (which is most likely garbage) you're going to get bad input lag.
I think that reducing every action the rich take to a quest for more money and power is the foolish and simple minded heuristic.

> for something like VOCs, it's likely using a CO₂ sensor and a lookup table that's static and only really valid for the test room it was created in.

It's the other way around, usually. CO₂ is more typically the estimated value, since its direct detection involves a relatively expensive NDIR value. VOCs as a category need some sort of modeling and estimation, but sensors can go fairly far by directly measuring a few species (hydrogen, for example), and hoping.
When the author sees that twitter and reddit both have iOS apps, he handwaves it away as a mystery why they are allowed to exist on iOS. Doesn't this go directly against his claim "no modern internet service in 2022 can have the rules that Tumblr did in 2007"? They are literally the direct competitors of Tumblr, and they didn't alienate a huge chunk of their audience with strict content policies.

Maybe he wasn't part of the organization at the time, but Tumblr was removed from iOS for a widely publicized child pornography incident. They made an internal decision to axe any and all adult content as a PR response. The app store did not mandate this.

(edited for clarity)
Unfortunately, there is no business model to support this. People don't want to pay to support unbiased product review sites. And as they say - "if you're not paying for the product, you are the product"
I like this statement. It doesn't imply ill-will such as intentional lying or selfish intent as most other posts do. This statement simply shows that people are trying to make their projects succeed in a complicated environment.

From my experiences, most people are doing what they think is right. We should take more time understanding why people think what they are doing is right, even when we may perceive the action as immoral or wrong.

Sure there is all kinds of stuff out there.

Seems the main point of the article was that it is being made highly impractical to build any system that allows you to get paid for it, short of using crypto, which (15 years later) still has an abysmal UX.

Seems like an opportunity for some ShadyBank to make a new payment scheme, with KYC (not get busted), small transactions only (not attractive to money-laundering), and transfer from customers to vendors, but building the anti-fraud infra from scratch would likely kill it.
Reminding about nukes doesn't work. The only outcome is being reminded by US that Russia will not survive consequences of using them. Nobody takes that as a serious treat.

Now pipes being blown up in a somewhat deniable way is treat, because that's something that can realistically happen without Moscow being nuked in the process.

Russia being a culprit here is so unthinkable for you probably because you vastly overestimate value of pipelines being affected. NS2 was never going to deliver gas, NS1 was turned off, likely forever. And hey, Yamal is still there, unaffected, if Russia actually will want to sell anything to Europe instead of China.

> while the majority that bought and got a number loved it

This seems to be Amazon's main unspoken strategy behind promoting positive reviews... many people want to be helpful and provide a review of a product that they purchased. That's great, but the problem is that most people are thoroughly unqualified to review things: "I took it out of the box and turned it on, five stars!"

(And I'm not even going to mention Vine Voice or whatever it is called, these are reviews you should ALWAYS ignore because they are given free products in exchange for ostensibly unbiased but implicitly biased reviews.)
The thing that frightens me is that we are rapidly reaching broad humanity disrupting ML technologies without any of the social or societal frameworks to cope with it.

Are you using shadow-cljs?
XSRF is of the class of confused deputy problems; the site expects that the browser will only let the end-user that was authorized perform actions, but the reality is that the browser on its own has no concept of user choice or consent for web content. The hypermedia aspect means that content by third parties can by default initiate actions, which would override the first-party presentation by the site for user consent.

So XSRF protections make it so that third party content cannot successfully initiate those actions. Prime examples are:

- SameSite cookies, where the initial request from another domain will not have cookies presented.

- The local content adding session-related parameters unknown to third parties, such as an OAuth access token in a header or a session cookie repeated as a form parameter.

These protect against the third party being able to initiate actions and pick up any background implicit authorizations being provided by the browser, such as session cookies or HTTP Basic authorization headers.

This is a false dichotomy. I think most would prefer a third path where Google invests in projects it actually believes in and commits to for longer than the lifespan of a fruit fly.

What about the information asymmetry inherent about you knowing what your abilities are, and the company does not know?

If Apple permanently banned Tumblr from the App Store, we’d probably have to shut the service down.

I'm not finished reading but this sounds like a bunch of shit to me. If this is true it is only because they force people to use the app by sabotaging their own web page. Tumblr has been dead since Verizon took over, it's legacy is pervasive infinite scroll throughout the internet.
The API span of flutter is ridiculously small compared to Qt. Does it even have a proper tree view? I only see stuff comparable to Qt Quick there: https://gallery.flutter.dev/ ; nothing to make a complete desktop UI.

e.g. if I look at what I can find for docking widgets (and I have hardly ever seen an actual useful software for content creation without a whole set of dozens of docks): https://caduandrade.github.io/docking_flutter_demo/#/ like, is this a joke?
Let’s say you’re a business owner, don’t have many technical skills, and want to change opening hours for a given day (e.g. public holiday). You’ll have to go at least 5 extra steps that require you to achieve that, than just pulling up your phone, going on your facebook page and changing the hours.

I think we are collectively over estimating average public’s willingness to go extra steps to achieve almost the same results that most of the public already expects.

Typically that "service" involves doing something with the data server side (such as displaying it in a slick website).

FHE does have potential applicability here, but i think the potential is a bit overblown because there are a lot of devil in the details issues.
Again: If we decide to use cookies instead, we also need to architect in a Cookie Revoker to fix the same problem: That means tracking cookies against user accounts on the server side. I'm sure some folks have done this, but I don't know of any common frameworks that actually support it.

This seems pretty disingenuous to me. They aren't just choosing to pursue conflicting policy. The government acted first and FORCED the BOE to intervene to avert a crisis.

Here's potentially a better description: The new government came in and announced a series of policies that made it immediately clear to markets that inflation was not being taken seriously in the UK. This lead to a drastic, and I mean historically drastic, sell off on the long end of their bond market. Basically all capital markets in the UK were on the brink of freezing and probably shortly thereafter this would have become systemic.

This would have basically set the timer started on the UK being maybe a few weeks off from a humanitarian crisis. (if you think this is hyperbole understand that the entire energy storage capacity of UK is about 1% of their yearly use meaning capital financed energy flows are constantly necessary to keep the system running, the food situation is not that severe but still requires flows)

After all of this occurred, the BOE came in did the thing that they had zero other choice but to do which was to inject liquidity back into that segment of the bond market. I think they would be the first to tell you that this policy is a disaster. They had absolutely no choice.
One problem that's perhaps underdiscussed is that all of this is coming from an entirely US-centric world view. In Europe, for instance, we are generally less paranoid about nudity, I don't think that the notorious "nipplegate" halftime show incident back in 2004 would have caused any uproar over here, perhaps bemusement.

But because the "world wide" web is really a "US-American" web at its heart, we now have to adhere to whatever standards are en vogue there today.

> I cannot see how one can claim that the US invasion of Iraq was less barbaric than the Russian invasion of the Ukraine. First of all, hundreds of thousands of Iraqis died.

>> Estimates of the total number of Iraqi war-related deaths are highly disputed. According to Keith Krause of the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies, Geneva, Switzerland, "the consensus seems to be that around 150,000 people died violently as a result of the fighting between 2003 and 2006."[1]

I am in no way attempting to justify or defend the Iraq War, which I and many believe was both illegal and a Republican political gambit to stay in power by heartlessly leveraging outrage from the 9/11 attacks. I think one can make the argument that both the wars in Iraq and Ukraine were invalidly justified using manufactured and outright false intelligence. But while yours and other comments above are searing, astute and poignant, in essence both it and previous opposing and supporting comments are tu quoque arguments.

Most of this stuff used to spread word to mouth. It still does.

'Funny people' on Reddit still post links to NSFW in SFW spaces. Googling something angsty can be interpreted as a search for XXX. Twitter isn't exactly safe either, and can teach a few people NSFW words to get curious about. R34, DeviantArt etc. are all alive, and anything hentai related is far more prominent and mainstream than before. People interact on these sites and suggest enough to instill curiosities.

It's not as on the nose as old flash game sites showing a highlighted "18+" with a shitty age verification or a random ad sending them into the rabbit hole, but it's still very much there.
It was almost certainly a state actor behind the destruction of the Nord Stream pipelines recently. https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/another-nord-stream-l...

A former Polish Minister of Defense posted "Thankyou USA" to Twitter after the attack. Various US officials have made public statements since the start of 2022 stating the US wouldn't allow Nord Stream to go forward. The whole reason the pipelines were built was for Russia to cut out the Ukrainian/Polish middlemen (transit fees) involved in selling gas to Germany, so the Russians don't have any incentive to blow up their own pipeline.

Examples of Google Cloud sunsetting products? As far as I know it's very rare that they do that.

The Banality of Surveillance
There are a few reasons.

async/await allows you to do multiple things in parallel. I don't see how you can do that in the virtual threading model, although I haven't used it and only read this article. You would have to spin up threads and wait for them to finish, which IMO is much more complicated and hard to read.

javascript

async function doTwoThings() {
await Promise.all([
doThingOne(),
doThingTwo(),
]);
}

python

async def do_two_things() {
await asyncio.gather(
do_thing_one(),
do_thing_two(),
);
}

Another issue is building abstractions on top of this. For example how do you implement "debounce" using virtual threads? You end up unnaturally reimplementing async/await anyway.

Finally it's generally much easier implement new libraries with a promise/future based async/await system than with a system based on threads, but I'm not familiar enough with Java to know whether this is actually a good objection. It's possible they make it really easy.
It's not only fighting them, but also forming them: The "right" regulation can become an entry barrier for competitors.

My understanding is that this is the strategy: the network effect method for choosing what content you want (FB/Insta) is getting beat by the "algorithm determines what you are interested in" method for choosing what content you want, so Facebook is pivoting to the latter.
