> Musk and everyone else is right that we do need a platform with free speech. The only problem is that all those free speech advocates are actually NIMBY's when it comes to free speech.

Agreed. Truth Social/Parlor as "Free speech" spaces is 100% laughable.

> The only somewhat free place I've seen is 4Chan but it contains so much toxicity, that's its barely bearable.

AKA: Every totally-free-no-holds-barred-speech sites, there is a reason it's a stupid goal held by people either too naive or those using it as a dog whistle.

> Yet again, I like that Musk and Kanye kind of people claim that they want free speech because at least we can hold them responsible when they don't deliver it.

Yes, because we have such a good track record of holding liars accountable...

> This is in contrast with the pure fascist where they cannot be held responsible for anything because they don't claim virtue in first place.

I can't even with this line. We have plenty of fascists running around claiming mountains of virtue and lying through their teeth. Their base/audience continues to blindly follow them and holding any of them accountable (especially by their base) is a pipe dream.

> It's a bit like companies doing greenwashing, which can be exposed when they don't deliver on their claimed virtues versus companies who don't even claim such virtues and instead pretend that it doesn't matter.

Again, this just isn't happening at scale.

> Those who claim virtue are better even if they ultimately fail.

False.
Yeah, I didn't word that very well.

What I'm trying to say is that people who are considered smart in the traditional sense won't always be good at math (or any other specific subject). The difference is something more nuanced than "I'd be good at math if I was smarter".
Manic depression, otherwise known as bipolar disorder
Again, we've had something very not capitalist to compare it to (which those people tend to love) and boy, was that worse.

But the past tends to be forgotten and on the internet nobody knows that the Soviet Union existed, so why not claim that it didn't. Or that it does, but is being attacked by NATO. Or, my favorite, that Russia doesn't exist, but is just a mirage used by NATO countries to pretend there's an external enemy so their population will follow orders more easily. "It's just an opinion" after all.
Marginalized populations have low social capital (that's what it means to be marginalized), so they will always be more vulnerable to the tyranny of structurelessness, and its attraction for dark-triad personalities. But I think you may be right that the way most so-called "safe spaces" are managed actively exacerbates this issue.
Those terms seem a little broad to me. If the news reported that Barack Obama's likeness was used in a "facemask", nobody would know what happened. If they said it was used for a "deepfake", most people still probably wouldn't know what happened, but at least they could look it up and get a general idea.

Considering how facemasking and soundmasking have multiple contextual meanings, I think deepfake is the perfect word. If you need more precision, then you can use the phrase "visual deepfake" or "audio deepfake".
> Stable civilizations will be, generally, much, much older than expansionist neighbors, and so incomprehensibly more advanced.

This is not necessarily true. A roiling cluster of ephemeral, competing life forms and civilizations may very well develop warfare and defence technology better and faster than stable civilizations. This is especially true if you consider the cost of stability: all new technology is a potential threat to stability that has to be weighed carefully, so I expect stable civilizations to evolve much slower than unstable ones. In the aggregate, instability is not really a problem: a civilization's progress will be scavenged or stolen by its successors, retaining the advantage, and for that reason I would argue the unstable regime will almost systemically overwhelm the stable one.

You can kind of see this with humanity: a lot of the big problems we have to face as a civilization (but not all of them) result from the careless adoption of technology. Climate change would not be a problem if we had industrialized slowly enough. The Internet spread too fast for us to understand its effects on the propagation of (dis)information. A truly stable civilization would have taken a thousand years to do what we did in a hundred. Perhaps it would be happier for it, but if we met them, we would eat them alive.
Under what argument should it be reasonable to force people to play the lottery and pay $1/week for it?

I don't play the lottery, feel it's stupid and just a tax on impossibly optimistic people (or those good at math), and would be quite annoyed at having to play this lottery and pay money for it.
If install fails with helm, you can just rollback to previous release:
helm rollback <RELEASE> [REVISION]
That's kind of a hilarious way to frame each side of the debate. Hilarious in a bad way that doesn't give you the benefit of the doubt on the topic.
There is 'suck it up' and 'stiff upper lip' culture which by their nature are suspicious of claims of unusual victimhood. Though that is becoming less common nowadays.

What I was referring to is that among nearly everyone I know of in the trades, I think very few, perhaps zero, would let even the most sober claim of victimhood go unremarked without a 'Really?', 'Uh-huh', upturned eyebrow, etc.

Sure, if the claim doesn't seem too exaggerated or unusually suspicious they may not say anymore on it. That doesn't mean they fully believe the alleged victim.

If it's someone they know to be genuine making the claim then I agree sympathetic responses are the norm, and even then they may still harbour doubts.

But that's the point, they don't easily believe just anyone, nor do they care much about social status advantages, so they almost never get into these signalling games.

The people who appear to easily trust anyone and appear to be sympathetic to every claim, are usually either very naive and sheltered or are very cunning and devious. Very few adults fall in-between.
If memory serves, FA unions often use seniority-oriented contracts. The more senior members will tend to be more active and better-represented among union leadership. Reserve members are often more junior.

Putting on my cynical prick hat for a moment, I would guess the union as an institution is far more willing to throw the app-oriented concerns of the junior members under the bus than the health care and pension concerns of the senior ones.
I genuinely hope you are kidding, haha.
I'm guessing its a poll item
Yet his net worth keeps growing...
Why not both? I agree with you that all of those people know how to play the media to their benefit, but Kanye is also clearly bipolar and currently in one of his episodes, and Trump also clearly is the clinical definition of narcissistic personality disorder. The Kardashians and Elon have their flaws too, but I don’t think they rise to the level of clinical issues in the way that Kanye and Trump do.
What’s a modern sitcom you like? I feel like I either lost my humor or tv did
It's important though to mention that you don't need KYC to attach a real identity to a bitcoin wallet. It's harder to do at scale, but if you're interested in finding the bitcoin wallet(s) of a specific person, or the person behind a specific wallet, this can be done with analysis of the blockchain itself and information from other parties to their transactions (which include their ISP, the ISP of some Bitcoin nodes where they advertised their transactions, and the seller sending them physical goods if they are using BTC for that). Also, if a BTC wallet is linked to a physical identity at any time, all past transactions of that physical identity can generally be discovered, often even if they are using separate wallets.

That's why I run Mac OS X and don't waste hours setting up a machine/operating system that could just work out of the box.
I did see someone once say that lotteries aren't a tax on the stupid, or on innumeracy; they're a tax on hope. It's made me think about why a lot of people play in a different light ever since.
"Before anyway throws the "they export their pollution" argument at me, you need to look at the stats on global GHG per capita."

I think it's more useful to look at carbon emissions per unit GDP, and the change therein. Stuff has to be produced somewhere, and it doesn't matter to the Earth where. What we want is for it to be produced as carbon-efficiently as possible. By this standard the U.S. still has a way to go to catch up with Europe, but it is catching up, rapidly (and our Canadian friends are weirdly awful, I guess because of tar sands and growing food in greenhouses).
How much does it cost?

I see it was built for $9.3M in 1960.

Now they're estimating the cleanup cost alone to be $50M.

Inflation adjusted - it should cost ~$95M to re-build. I'm not sure how if you'd need to include the total $50M cleanup on top of that.

Either way - if it can be re-built for $95M - that seems like a better deal than spending $50M to clean it up.
I always considered it as a debt which only exists for a few seconds. You agree to purchase something, cashier rings it up, and in those few moments before you pay you have a debt to the shop.
Disclosure: I work for FusionAuth, which is a competitor of Firebase Auth.

One nice thing about Firebase auth: you can at least get your password hashes out, so a migration that doesn't overly impact your users is possible.

This is in contrast to Amazon Cognito and Azure AD B2C, both of which don't allow you to export the hashes.

More on how to do such an export here: https://fusionauth.io/blog/2022/05/25/how-to-migrate-from-fi...

If you look at it politically, there are people on the right in the US who complain incessantly about cancel culture and how they feel persecuted on Twitter who like to ban books and passed the "don't say gay" legislation in Florida.

CPAC, the conservative PAC, canceled Milo Yiannopoulos when was planning to speak there.

I don't blame them, because Yiannopoulos was always acting in bad faith. If one of his talks hadn't gotten canceled it would have been a personal failure on his part and a clear indication that he didn't go far enough and would have to be even more offensive next time. The point with Yiannopoulos was that he'd get canceled, get attention, find some fool who would pay even more to hear a "controversial" speaker, and repeat the cycle. CPAC wised up to what is going on.

None of this information is public, its spread across internal websites that integrate with AAs SSO
Exactly. Personally I’d rather see more of internet communities/products regulating access to anonymity. This opinion is intensely unpopular around here, but IMO it addresses the root cause. The internet made it instantly easy and cheap to have multiple identities. Don’t get me wrong, we still need that tool in a modern human’s toolset, but it shouldn’t be cheap and easy to generate low value spam. Imagine if Twitter had a community reputation system and Twitter itself never removed any Tweets but just let the community downvote them into nonexistence, like we do here…
Curious what others think.

Would robot police allow police to be less scared for their lives & ask questions first instead of the fear that exists in some situations that cause them to shoot to quickly?

Could this lead to a system where people can be judged properly in a court system instead of to quickly?
Those developed countries have people taking their banned speech underground. It is usually also very illegal to take their strongest arguments and argue against them. All you have left is hope that they will never gain stronger support.
I would imagine that pretty much every airline offers some sort of legality checker to their crew members. If an FA worked a trip illegally that would mean heavy fines from the FAA and from whatever union contract they also violated.
Could be true.. but doesn't matter as long as they get to liquidate their product for a few hundred millions.
"Capitalism is the problem" is a statement so broad an non-specific that it can not be a lie. Certainly any economic system has problems.

Saying that a specific race is inherently evil is a specific factual claim (one that few people actually make).
I've seen people on both the "left" and "right" claim that Twitter more heavily moderates "their side." Is there any way to know if either "side" is correct?

I doubt Twitter classifies moderated content into political buckets as this would create massive liability, but has any neutral third party studied what kind of content is removed and classified it into "left" vs "right"?

I'd like to see the system that could accurately perform such classification at scale, if such a thing is even possible, since no one seems to know exactly what "left" and "right" mean.

For example, "liberal" and "left" are often conflated even though hardcore leftists tend to have a healthy disdain for liberals (in the modern, colloquial sense).

The point is to offset the loss in tax revenue. Very few people will notice a $52 increase in taxes, and you can set an income minimum for it if you prefer (scaling up the amount as needed to hit the revenue target).
I mean some people will sell themselves into slavery in desperate situations. That doesn’t mean it should be allowed.

There are other ways to get around this problem either through deferred compensation or through the company being able to retain the certification lisence for a period of time as property that another company or the employee can buy out.
Moderation Is the Key to Life (2017)
If this is a known issue, what are the chances of a related, unknown and potentially catastrophic issue?
Because we can't begin to agree on how to do this in a standard way. The whole idea of git oriented flows seems to be an afterthought rather than being considered an important part of a standard production k8s deployment from the start. Here are some competing options I see after a quick glance in this thread:

- kubectl apply -k ./deploy --prune
- heml install
- helm template + kubectl apply + kubectl diff
- Kustomize
- Argo CD
- Octopus
- JSONNet
- Cue
- Pulumi

And because this is an advanced topic (most of the above require a large investment reading docs and github issues), I'm guessing many/most people never get beyond ad-hoc kubectl commands and letting their cluster run wild.

It's sad because to become successful Kanye had to ignore hundreds/thousands of important people telling him he wasnt good enough and he would never make it as a rapper. Then he became, arguably, the most popular rapper/hip hop artist of all time.

Now image you've done what seems impossible despite countless people telling you it wont work out. You are in the top 1% of fame. Now someone tells you your other ideas are wrong. And that you cant actually achieve x goal. And that you don't know what you are talking about when you talk about y. And that you are sick and need to take meds to fix yourself.

Would you believe them? Or would you believe yourself?

I think Kanye is sick and needs help but I can see almost anyone falling into the exact same trap hes fallen into if they lived his life.
This site is called Hacker News. This is an exemplary application of the hacker ethos - to apply skill and insight to make a digital system better for some group who is being underserved, without all-encompassing regard for the desires of the offending organization.
Reading the descriptions under the sibling comment, it seems to be something that every airline absolutely should offer their employees. You don't want them to work illegally as that could mean huge fines for you.
Counterpoint to your anonymity argument: we’ve learned in that past few years that people are very much OK with being publicly identified with hateful ideologies/ideas, e.g. MAGA supporters. A lot of them publicly post and participate online under their real identities, a lot of of it on Facebook.

Anonymity is only a deterrent when you are the odd one out. When the President of the US is the one spouting the insanity you don't have to hide anymore.

I wonder if this means I can use treasury bonds as payment at a restaurant (of course practically they would refuse, and I don't suggest trying this, but an interesting thought)
This is the actual answer, stated succinctly.
The real key is that there's a moderator, and the community is small enough that he can check things manually.

Once it gets too big for that, you're doomed to destruction eventually.

My preferred solution would be to break up the communities once they're too big, instead of trying to make a massive world-wide community like Twitter does. Reddit somewhat has this, but there is still a site-wide issue.
One might also say that it is similar to the phenomenon of people joining the police or aligning themselves with religions to abuse others under the color of “justice” or “god”. That does not invalidate police or religions.

Rather than finger pointing at one particular group or another, it might be more useful to just say that bullies will use any excuse they can to get away with bullying people. And organizations should have mechanisms for identifying and ostracizing those types - which sometimes may be abused by the bullies themselves.

My wife and I are going to be doing the whole digital nomad thing across the US, Canada and Mexico starting in less than 2 weeks, getting one way flights and staying in hotels.

Currently, we have been flying out of a major Delta hub and we took for granted what an airline app should be.

Now as we are planning flights between Delta, American and United, I can confidently say that American has by far the worse consumer app of any of the major airlines or hotels.

I wouldn’t be surprised that their internal apps and websites are a similar shit show.
How does this prevent the issue? You can say horrible things on smaller forums as well
"Did you know that car mechanics have to buy their own tools? Can you imagine developing software and having to bring your own computer and devices?"

There are BYOD companies. They would probably be more common if licensing and security didn't matter.

Yes and no the the own tools thing. It depends on the shop and the type of tools. Their own wrenches, sockets, and other small tools might make sense (especially if they avoid Snap-On). The air tool infrastructure, lifts, alignment rack, tire mounting/balancing machine, etc are all shop supplied.
A CHECK constraint treats NULL as true.
I largely agree, but the explosive charge can be a shotgun blank. Which also means it can be substituted for a normal shotgun shell. And the police can use this pretty much at their discretion. How long will it take for this to be misused?

I agree that the author wasn't quite clear on this point.

If you control both the client and the API, then pagination is something you can add in later. But setting up pagination early may make sense if the client isn't in your control.

The author gave the example of the an old mobile app that users don't update. The client is also out of your control if it's a public API that users call with whatever client code they choose.

That said, I'm not sure how setting up "fake" pagination is helpful if the client isn't already coded to use pagination responses from the server. So I'll have to assume the author means that any client you provide already has pagination logic built-in.

That's not how economists use rationality. Individuals derive other enjoyments from gambling besides their earnings. This desire to seek things they like is the "rationality", purposeful behavior, not the ability to make optimal bets or play mathematical games.
Interesting icon set. I love the idea behind it, but looking at their icon preview at https://i0.wp.com/codefisher.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/..., I noticed that some images look great at higher resolutions (the star), while others look like a bad hqx/xbrz job, with a mix of curved, pixel-aligned (lock, book, anchor, monitor stand), and blurred features (book stripes), with inconsistent line widths (the house's roof and bushes, the computer stand and anchor).
American Airlines was featured in a video at Microsoft Ignite last week. They showed how everyone involved in a flight talks to each other through Teams and how Microsoft / AA has worked closely together to get this working. I'm wondering if AA doesn't want this app being used instead?
