This is so counterintuitive for folks. Anecdotally, you can find a lot of stories out there from folks with ADHD who will tell you that their medication calmed their brain for the first time. It could be compared to a sensory deprivation experience.

"I didn't know my brain could be this quiet," is a common refrain from people with ADHD on taking a stimulant for the first time.
Well that's probably going to suck for everyone who convinced their non-technical parents to switch to Signal.

"My bad, this easy SMS client I got you to switch to is going to stop supporting SMS, and we're going to have to export all your old texts or they'll be gone forever."

Same tactic Starbuck's is using - insist that the store needs to negotiate via the union, while simultaneously refusing to engage with the union.
I think you are spot on. As a person in that spectrum, i feel everyone's brain is hardwired in some way, and if you want to fight it with workarounds (with techniques/strategies) you will have to pay a lot in terms of brain power. And not a lot of ADHD people are motivated to do that (thanks to ADHD lol)..

Outside of domain specific knowledge some people have Senior traits right away; ownership, tenacity, attention to detail, empathy to risk. They will ask for help more readily but also become blocked less than other "seniors" with years of experience(by both asking for help and trying to help themselves more).

Others will have a few years of experience and a "senior" title but may never obtain those traits.

The problem is those areas are often conflated under a single "senior" title at companies. But you definitely know who's going and who's staying when the layoffs come.
There is also a nonprofit effort to lower prices by manufacturing drugs that are sometimes in short supply or overpriced, where the founding hospital system (in Utah) has joined with others, & has a solid, long-term reputation.

Wikipedia said (lightly shortened): "Civica Rx is a nonprofit generic drug company founded in 2018 by national philanthropies and leading U.S. health systems[1] to reduce and prevent drug shortages in the United States and the price spikes that can accompany them. .... While serving 55 health systems and 1,500 hospitals (or 1/3 of all licensed U.S. hospital beds), Civica also supplies the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, the U.S. Department of Defense, and “340B” hospitals caring for vulnerable patients in some of the country’s most underserved areas. As of January 2022, Civica provided nearly 70 million vials of essential medicines, enough to treat over 26 million patients across the United States. These numbers continue to grow as Civica moves from a start-up to a well-established societal asset, serving more patients every day. Most recently, eleven of Civica's 55+ medications are being used to help COVID-19 patients, including neuromuscular blocking agents, sedation agents and pain management medications for patients on ventilators." Etc. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civica_Rx )

It's bad for a company to go bad.

It's bad for a company to lock out competition.
> They are solving a very real problem. WebAuthn uses private keys, but those private keys are tied to the device where they were created.

To clarify I am not talking about the issue of syncing the device's private key. I am talking about the artificial problem these walled gardens are creating by having every single domain getting its own randomly generated private key. The only practical way to keep all of these randomly generated keys synced across multiple devices is to use the "cloud".

If instead the per site key was generated using a private key and the domain name, users would only need to transport that one private key to another device and would get syncing for free without the requirement of the "cloud".
> I don't know anyone who is buying or recommending Intel CPUs at the moment.

Aren’t the major cloud providers still mainly running on and buying Intel?
From a consumer standpoint, life was much better when that was the case. One app, one service, pretty much anything I want to watch. Per-network streaming services were just a glint in some executive's eye, and things were good.

The current state of things is confusing, expensive, and user hostile.

I was trying to figure out how to watch Rick & Morty S6 the other night. It'll be on Hulu, but not for months. It'll be on HBO Max, too, but it's only downloadable for offline viewing on Hulu. Wanna watch it now? Need a cable subscription, even though Adult Swim's website says "now available on HBO Max".

I like the idea of any streaming service being able to license any show, if they can pay the fee. Another comment mentioned the Paramount Decree as a similar example.
Wash trading (under that term) is illegal, but I looked it up and the writing on it seems like it mainly applies to the context of creating higher volume, not price[1], and the latter is what the attacker used here. Margin lenders on conventional markets generally avoid this attack by incorporating volatility in their collateral requirements -- a recent rally in the price would mean higher volatility and thus more collateral required.

I would suggest to the creator that they make it clear that the consensus statement is the centerpiece and link to it more clearly. I found it kind of confusing that there was a section of the homepage that promoted the consensus statement without giving me a way to get to it in the body of the page. There is a huge amount of information and evidence that seems to be presented really clearly, its just not front and center on the landing.

“Wall Street” refers to stock investors and analysts who put pressure on the company to increase their profit and share prices above all else. They are motivated primarily by making a profit on their investment rather than long term health of the company.

This is due to the New York Stock Exchange being located on Wall Street in New York.
I wouldn’t frame it as an issue around adopting new things. Some don’t care, some go with the flow, and some prefer to make active choices about these kinds of things.

I am very intentional and active when it comes to what has push notification privileges. I factor that into my app use consideration. I have multiple email accounts in two different email apps, each that send me notifications. I have Signal, Discord, iMessages and SMS. I have a few Google chat apps. I used to have WhatsApp and Wickr and Telegram. I have Skype, Teams, and two Mattermost servers.

It’s exhausting to constantly switch between these, so over the course of a few years I’ve been very clear in where people can expect to reach me reliably. If you need or want to chat with me on Discord, Skype, or Google whatever you need to send me an iMessage, SMS, Mattermost, or Signal message. Sending me a message anywhere else will get you a response only the next time I open that app. That only happens when someone specifically asks.

I’m OK with having 63847394038 chat and video calling apps, but I’m not OK with being instantaneously notified by an infinity such apps. I can’t be that available.
As I said in my comment, they are more or less equivalent as statements of fact, but different in how the fact is framed. Framing, or the context in which you state a fact, matters.
The Bloomberg article words this very differently:

> The chipmaker had 113,700 employees as of July.

> Some divisions, including Intel’s sales and marketing group, could see cuts affecting about 20% of staff, according to the people.

To infer 20,000 total employees from that is making some assumptions, and also misrepresents the article it cites.

(Not to take away from the overall message that this will be a big cut.)

> I think it's great that they are essentially "recycled" when new, better companies come along and eat their lunch.

Don't you have on the order of tens of thousands of dollars invested in Intel through retirement savings, though? When S&P 500 companies fail, your retirement savings become worthless. (Apple is really the one you want to watch out for, though!)
This looks like classic bait and switch in the tech industry. "Trust us, we are only interested in selling you hardware and maybe some services that protect your privacy." Once the people are sufficiently captured and wires deeply embedded, gradually change the terms and networks.
This is capturing raw frames, not RTSP.
The people you talk about see no sense to use signal at all. So why should they install it when they have SMS? And when Signal is installed, why should the change the app and use signal instead of SMS?
Minnesota burned to the ground which is easy to find with any non-bias searching.
Sounds like there could be a middle path. Instead one fixed dev image, there can be base image + inventory of other software, where free ones anyone can install. Paid ones need approval and/or decision who will pay for it. But IT department is surely not one I imagine that can create decent inventory. So there needs be a catalog for such things which companies can purchase or subscribe.
The problem with the highlighted organizations is not (only) that they are irrelevant to Wikipedia's mission and the intent of the funders, it's that they don't seem to be doing anything which raises the question of why this specific group is being given free money. The answer can well be corruption or nepotism. Whatever it is, it doesn't look good.
The cited source states that "Some divisions, including Intel’s sales and marketing group, could see cuts affecting about 20% of staff".

This article extrapolates that out to "All divisions will cut 20% of staff".

It's unfortunate for a lot of people regardless, but the report seems (for now) to be exaggerated.

To add to the list their 5G modem chip also failed in recent years. They sold their mobile division to Apple who then indirectly laid off a ton of staff by making them reapply and interview for their existing positions.
I concur that some of the tier0 social login providers are not very developer friendly. The more dev friendly and user friendly social logins are such as GitHub or Discord. They have straight forward processes and a clear management console.
Can't read the article, but for context Intel's share price never recovered from the "dot com" bubble of 2000:

https://www.tradingview.com/chart/?symbol=INTC

It's one of a few large companies with that distinction.

Shares now offer a (relatively) regal 5.3% dividend yield and a price/earnings ratio just above 5. Of course, as profits dwindle, both metrics will be recalibrated downward.

This seems relevant because during the late 1990s Intel was allegedly the company whose shares one bought and never sold. I could name a couple of those whose positions today are argued to be equally ironclad.
This is a bit like the way that Bannister broke a decade-old record with his 4-minute mile, then someone beat his record 6 weeks later.
You got it, boring internet is good. Branding, goofiness distract from the substance. If I go to Slack I want to get work done, and I'd rather that the devs focus their efforts on improving performance and not adding more tiny distractions to my day. If I want fun, I'll go to Reddit, which does "fun" way better than Slack ever will.

After the Slack devs finish making their product as performant as a 90's chat app, then they can start adding in silly things. Until then, the "whimsy" just makes me more frustrated at their trash product.
A flawed analysis, all of those people are people who crave power.

In my experience it’s the opposite. In VSCode, when you open, say, a .py file for the first time, you automatically get prompted to install the Python plugin. With the JetBrains suite you would have to manually install PyCharm.

This seems like a reference to the situation during the height of Covid lockdowns, where people were stuck at home buying tech products.

In that case, the deeper read of the situation is that the Covid crisis helped them kick the can down the road by 3 years on responding to the trends of 2019.
Nice catch! I'm old enough to remember Clarus well, I'm ashamed I missed this.
> by definition a journalist is not a shill

Well, your definitions are eccentric. For example, Luke Harding is accredited as a senior journalist at The Guardian; he shills for the UK security services. I'm not sure whether we disagree as to what a shill is, or what a journalist is. The only journalists that I know of that are not shills are independent writers, like Jonathan Cook and Peter Hitchens.

I think their main error was short-termism. They were addicted to high margin (workstation/server) devices. They had no interest in the low margins of mobile devices. They could not imagine how low-power devices would take over the world.

Shouldn't we instead solve the problem that you might "need some protection" because you're doing something political - instead of relying on security-through-obscurity which honestly doesn't even really work anymore, IDs or no IDs. There's so many other ways for governments to track people of interest these days.
You can alter the audio signal to mask gender: https://blog.interviewing.io/we-built-voice-modulation-to-ma...

Similar tech could be used to mask accents.

I suspect the real reason people are so hesitant to anonymize interviews is that the disparities will persist - or even grow larger - and it'll be more difficult to ascribe it to racism or sexism.
The idea that they can't improve the UI/UX to better inform to the people who repeatedly, accidentally send insecure messages/sms (ignoring the existing words "Unsecured SMS" in the chat field, the unlocked lock near messages, the unlocked lock next to the phone, or the giant banner that occasionally drops down that tells you the % of secure messages you can be sending if you pester a contact into grabbing signal) as one of the reasons for this change is frankly bullshit.

Changing the Send button's icon to "SMS" or a color/border change ala iMessage are ideas off the top of my head and I'm sure they've got designers significantly more talented than I am that can think of better ones. We've seen very little iteration there that's indicated the significance of that problem...and frankly if they highlighted this as a tactic vs endless spam texts more people would be receptive to this news. As it stands I think this is going to significantly reduce their number of casual users. In fact I'm willing to bet that the cohort of users who are used as justification are the least likely to convince their contacts to switch to Signal.

Don't get me wrong, their real desire to increase the amount of people sending secure messages via Signal alone + resource mgmt in the face of a recession are valid. But acting as a unified messenger (with better link unfurling, threaded replies, and reactions after Google killed Allo vs the default messenger that spent years getting them) was the trojan horse onto many of my friends' and colleagues' phones. Now that there's parity I can see more people just opting into the default messenger/FB Messenger + Whatsapp combo because more people exist there and we're all just lazy.
I know what it feels like already.

I refused the Covid shot, and I’m sure this lady would be first demanding HR to fire me.
Abstract: "In response to a recent Nature article which announced an algorithm for multiplying 5×5-matrices over ℤ2 with only 96 multiplications, two fewer than the previous record, we present an algorithm that does the job with only 95 multiplications."

The "recent Nature article" is, of course, Deepmind's reinforcement learning-guided search for better matrix multiplication algorithms: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33096580.

They improved upon Deepmind's algorithms by applying a method of their own, which is not described in this paper, but which they will publish in an upcoming paper: "Manuel Kauers and Jakob Moosbauer. Flip graphs for matrix multiplication. in preparation."
> Your model of "just fancy tech companies and startups" is maybe a bit outdated.

It's really not. More permit them now or have some departments or (perhaps acquired) sub-units that use them. Your average office drone and old-corp IT person or developer is still issued a Windows machine, and probably a low-end one.

[EDIT] Broader point remains either way: issuing $3.5k laptops/desktops is very very far from the norm.
> Intel's share price never recovered from the "dot com" bubble of 2000

As you observe, this is true only if one ignores dividends, which are a material component of total returns for a mature company like Intel.

> during the late 1990s Intel was allegedly the company whose shares one bought and never sold

This has never been true for any public company. And it’s driven by investor style more than company fundamentals.
While it doesn't have a ton of power, the Vive Flow[0] seems like a great form factor. A few more years of miniaturization and advancements, you will probably see some much more capable VR headsets in a more glasses-like form. They weigh 1/4 that of the Quest Pro.

The number of other 10 minute jobs I passively ignore a month could probably take up a significant portion of my free time, and many of those would probably provide more reward then trying to send a signal to a billion dollar corporation this way (shopping around for slightly better contracts, accounts, finding the cheapest variant of a product, etc.).

There's enough to do in life that everyone makes trade offs on what they're willing to spend their limited time on, personally I'm not willing to spend my time solving a problem that can absolutely be solved technologically but is prevented from being so by intransigence
Bigger discounts are better, of course. I think many people, including myself, have been paying through the nose with "prescription coverage" which costs more than goodRx or Cost Plus Drugs.

The goodRx site is weird - it looks like a coupon site, where you go to other pharmacies and give them a coupon. I know this is exactly how goodRx works, but it doesn't exactly inspire confidence when you're buying something as serious as prescriptions. The Cost Plus Drugs site is extremely spartan, but it doesn't give off the same weird vibes as goodRx - there are less steps involved. You just order from Cost Plus Drugs and it shows up in the mail, no in-between third party involved.

In other words, what you're ostensibly here to discuss has nothing to do with WMF's campaign in light of the actual circumstances, and you've shown a willingness to make a bunch of indefensible claims along the way—only to say that you were never really serious about those things.
