This would provide more ways to fingerprint users. It's also not possible to guarantee no sqlite update will ever change observable behavior, even if it happens to mostly be true now.

Once you start giving special privileges to specific wasm binaries, the floodgates are open for a hundred different vendors to demand the same special treatment because 10% of websites use their .wasm blob. And then you've created a barrier to entry for competition. Nobody wins in the long run except a couple of your friends.
This is my guess as well, but on a bit longer timescale. I think we'll see some noteworthy features over the next year as he tackles low hanging fruit(the reply button for example, although it sounds like that was already in development). This will be followed by a year or two of slow down as they run into social/technological issues, followed by Musk selling off the company.
We completely replaced the machine, so the chances of the power or ethernet cable being plugged in wrong in exactly the same way on two different machines seems vanishingly small. This being well over 30 years ago, I have no idea anymore whether or not we tried swapping either cable. At any rate, it was a least a day between the most recent machine replacement, which didn't seem to solve her problem, and the garlic placement. I'm sure there's a rational explanation in there somewhere...but problem solved, however it happened!
"Some guy in Russia told all the white men to rise up and kill all the jews and blacks"

The police "again, that's the 23rd time today"

This kinda breaks down at the global scale. I can call for violent acts at your front door from a continent away with impunity.
Maybe.

He hasn't given up on self-driving after it turned out to be much harder than he thought. He's still pouring money and time into it.

And he hasn't given up on Starlink, even though it is not nearly as profitable as he hoped originally. He's just launching more satellites.

And he hasn't given up on Starship even though it is years late. He's doubling down on its development.

But I conceded that he might not see Twitter as critical for his ultimate goals. Maybe he'll just sell it to a bigger fool in a few years?
The fact that legal interpretation has changed over time is a feature; the essential point is that it is within the democratic institution of the judicial system that the debate over and enforcement of acceptable speech should occur.

Yes, I am committed to backing up my philosophical attachment to free speech at the expense of personal inconvenience. I realize that's an empty statement without actually being subjected to that reality, but that's the best I can do.

If I'm wrong about the extent to which hate speech proliferates in unmoderated spaces (absent the adverse selection effect for sites like 4chan), then that's all the more reason to address that undercurrent of our societies. If anything, I'd argue pushing people off platforms where they might encounter dissenting views exacerbates radicalization.
No shirt, no shoes, no service.
As mentioned elsewhere, it's 1-9W not 1.9W idle. Other similar products idle at 10-12 watts with the same CPU.
Most people are not on-board with that at all. Most people also feel you can do whatever, including be a man or woman if you so desire, but the whole ideological stuff surrounding that: yeah ... not really. This includes many progressives on the left.

The entire concept of "treating me as a {man,woman} and also agree to my particular ideas about sex and gender or otherwise you're a hateful bigot!" is quite remarkable. It's like "you must agree with my preferred theory about the origins of homosexuality or else you're homophobic!"
> You can't call people names or make crass offtopic jokes (like people on twitter do constantly).

I'm not sure how they could pull it off, but if Twitter wants to be a real town hall for the world then these are the things that DO need to be removed.

But if twitter wants to be the place were anyone can scream into the void, then they can't do this.

The weird thing is, I want both. My favorite part of twitter is both of these things.
Is there anything to the idea that saturated fats are less prone to blocking glucose metabolism? For example, this guy [1] argues that saturated fats can temporarily suppress insulin signaling to avoid overloading the cell with glucose while the fat is being metabolized.

Anecdotally I have a much easier time handling carb-rich meals since mostly eliminating polyunsaturated fats from my diet. My previous experience was some combination of “food coma” and “noticeably hangry” a few hours later, but now I mostly just feel energetic for a few hours.

Some of the most metabolically-healthy populations in the world eat mostly starches [2] (and maybe 1–2% of calories from PUFAs), so my hunch is that eating low-carb is more of a workaround for widespread metabolic dysfunction than a requirement to be metabolically healthy.

Those companies are solving problems with logistics and engineering.

Twitter is fundamentally trying to solve a people problem, which is much fuzzier. Every impression I've had from "public Elon" is that he is absolutely wretched at people-problems-at-scale. I'm also not sure there is any human ever who has been able to solve people problems at Twitter's scale.
Why do you want to know if a machine or human wrote a tweet? What difference does it make, and where do you draw the line? If I use Grammarly to correct my language in a tweet then did a machine write it? How about if I generate text using GPT-3 and then manually edit it?

Please define your terms.
I'm not sure this is entirely the case, though probably partly so. I think they do track known VPN servers, or suspected therein, and closer to congress sessions cut those off. I had a number of self hosted setups used by a few people that would get cut off at those times only to come back on later.
I wonder if this was part of the whole media / video embeds - so a musician could release music and news websites etc would pay for the embeds. Musicians could then get a cut of that money - or a cut of the advertising of it.

Maybe pay for no ads in the embeds?
Non-starter. Only indexes price for USA.
It was an eye opener to see official Taliban accounts.

As abhorrent as I may find their ideas, if they play the rules, I'd actually prefer to allow them on the platform.

The eye opener was seeing others cheer on the silencing of academics, politicians,and physicians who's ideas may be out of step with the zeitgeist (or the mob's interpretation of what's apprpos).
Many people say they dislike Musk because of his ego, his shitposting, his tendency to lash out at critics, etc. I like him specifically because of those attributes: he may be the richest man on the planet, but he never gives the impression of being a lizard person like e.g. Bezos does. He's a normal guy, including plenty of normal-guy flaws, just an extremely successful one.
Spam city coming right at ya
See, that's the insanity: why would we need an independent implementation? sqlite has authoritative libraries, that everyone uses, and sqlite3 has been stable for literally over a decade. For all that time, the world could have benefited from "just bloody expose it" as opposed to "but there's no API-equivalent alternative implementations!".
FWIW we've had a lot of success when we created a wizard-style system for normal users. It's mostly web-apps, so we'll ask for the URL, we'll ask them to paste a screenshot and encourage them to draw on it, we'll ask them to ELI5 what they did/did not expect to see etc, and on submit we'll automatically collect some additional information e.g. on a public website we'll get an HAR of the page + resources at the time of the report.

Just forcing a URL, screenshot + expectation has improved reports drastically. Before, we'd get a partial screenshot that shows some random widget where nobody knows the URL it's from, or what it should be looking like, or whether it's actually something that looks wrong, or just something that's worded incorrectly, or that there should be a link on some term in a text.
Except I don't want WebSQL, I literally want Sqlite3 as a JS API, backed by the unadulterated authoritative Sqlite3 library. I don't wonder why there's no good in-browser database solution that uses SQL, I literally don't get why sqlite3, only, and specifically, still isn't usable by JS in 2022.
Many opportunities! Prison, the Peace Corps, I've read on HN about tech CEOs working at Amazon warehouses to reconnect with their social side... You could go be a part of the technical or scientific staff at a polar research station, or work on an Alaskan fishing boat. There are so many exciting ways to make lifelong friendships!
A politician is an organization, as much as any corporation or brand is. The politician is the owner, spokesperson, and mascot, but the more senior they are the more they have a huge staff that is responsible for what would otherwise be called CEO, CFO, Chief Council, PR, HR, IT, R&D.

And remember that corporations are people too, my friends. But they are very strange kinds of people. When Taco Bell hires a marketing firm to pay a TV station to air a commercial X times, is that a bot? Or even stranger, Taco Bell and Pizza Hut can get into a twitter troll war with each other, even though they're both wholly-owned subsidiaries of Yum! Brands, Inc. and the whole thing could have been written by a marketing firm and scheduled it through TweetDeck. Is that a bot?

Edit: Or every newspaper is basically auto-posting their recent articles, some even just doing it like an RSS feed, where it tweets a link and headline whenever an article is posted. Is that a bot?
Except that Musk himself clearly thinks this is a concern; his letter to advertisers was one of his first actions after taking over.
I agree with this, but I would emphasize something you glossed over, which is that the target is a "public figure." It's normative to be cruel to "public figures" in ways that would be totally unacceptable in any normal interpersonal relationship. I personally think that's fucked up, but it really is normative.

So singling out e.g. cruelty specifically about trans people's gender presentation seems targeted and political, because it's completely commonplace to say cruel things about someone if they made bad art, or if they disagree with you about some political policies, and rarely do people get banned from anything about it.
I'm 100% certain he is quite literally the biggest internet troll of all time. His words have caused volatility in crypto and stonk markets, and all as jokes to himself. He demanded his California workers continue working in large in-person groups despite a deadly virus pandemic without a vaccine at the time. His plan was to dangle a carrot in front of Twitter that he'd buy, then pull the rug out. He once again violated really commonsense ETF/FCC/whatever laws and once again got bit. He's a genius in many ways, and a playground bully in others.
> Journalists should not be afforded legal protections

They have no special protection.

> need a system where it's dangerous

You want to destroy free speech, then. Any policy covering journalists would equally apply to everyone.

> assert the "OK" sign is racist

Are you asserting it wasn't used by trolling white nationalists? Or do you mean that the intent was trolling, rather than something "sincere"? Or something else?

This is why I’m so happy to have the DRM-free version of Photoshop CS3 that they offered for a year or two after shutting down the CS3 product activation system. It might be old, but it runs fine on Windows 10 and I can depend on it staying the way it is.

There's some graffiti near where I live:

"Trans rights are human rights!"

Okay, great! And then on the next wall, in the same colour so presumably by the same people:

"Kill all men!"
I miss that on (stock) Linux. At least on my Gentoo system at home (yes yes, I know) I can have a nice clean pstree, but my work laptop runs like two hundred things before I even open a program.
I did! I worked at a university at the time and another department was decommissioning one (a GSA). My group was looking for hardware at the time, so we snagged it. Under the yellow paint it was a bog-standard Dell PowerEdge. I think I still have a ridiculous picture somewhere of my team and I hustling the thing out through the parking lot like we were making off with super-secret Google hardware.
you're stating that "conservatives" on twitter are deadnaming trans people "because the intent behind the action is to hurt." I'm stating that the media is doing the same thing to Ye. the only difference is that he's not trans, which you seem to think confers special privileges with regards to correct name use that nobody else has access to, and that "deadnaming" is an exclusively anti-trans phenomenon. you are the one who is not reading my posts: I specifically said that using "Kanye West" in the context of "formerly known as" makes plenty of sense. however this is not what has been happening in many, many headlines, all easily findable on news.google.com. I am pointing out this contradiction, and you are saying it's not a contradiction at all, because Ye is not trans, and people using his previous name are not intentionally trying to hurt him, but are just lazy or ignorant or whatever excuses you have. you're just talking past me without actually addressing anything I'm saying at this point, so there's no real use in continuing this discussion.
> Edit: HN won't let me post. Heather Meeker wrote the SSPL for MongoDB, then she helped write this which is all about protecting against the SSPL. If you cite a person as the licensing expert for credibility when the thing is completely contradictory to what that person has written in the past should result in loss of credibility, not gaining it.

Thanks for noting this, I did not know this.

That said, I don’t think that’s an indicator that the ideas or legal stuff in the article cannot be trusted.

Unless your claim is that it’s been backdoored somehow, what people have done in the past (or who they worked for) is not the sole indicator of their intentions.

I would love to see your line of questioning put to her though.

Mongo choosing to go the SSPL route was Mongo’s decision.

> She's a lawyer for her client, wrapping up their chosen business model in novel legal bullshit to help sell it.

Lawyers work for their clients and so do programmers. It’s perfectly reasonable to do closed source work and also work on open source.

Are you implying that she’s

Not everyone is Stallman, and that’s OK as long as there are enough Stallmans.

“Wrapping up their business model in novel legal bullshit” is exactly what made copyleft work.

Would you mind stating the parts of the biz model you hate? Is it just that you’d prefer if companies chose a straight dual-license approach for example(or something else)? Or a foundation?
You can’t clone dang (yet).
The 'bots on Twitter' thing is perhaps one of the few things I agree with Musk about. Searching a hashtag like #javascript or #webdev or similar reveals a whole universe of obviously low quality content posting bots getting suspiciously the same number of likes and retweets on every post. Things like "Top 10 Web Languages You Need To Know" and the list is just randomly shuffled with link shorteners everywhere. This stuff is definitely polluting whatever sacred public square Musk seems to think Twitter needs to be. Obviously bots and spam is a monumental problem that transcends Twitter.
More precisely, at one point and for an instant, he wanted to own Twitter. His subsequent behavior could be interpreted as not wanting it at that price, but his actions were to try and stop the sale - not negotiate a different price.

I think Elon has mental health / behavioral issues that drive this, but because he's a billionaire, we don't really care all that much. As long as he doesn't go full Kanye (which is a line he is scarily close to).
> But now there’s one big difference: When the content moderation of Twitter remains largely the same, the sense of betrayal among Musk’s super-fans will explode with the force of a supernova.

Probably not. The super-fans will find a way to rationalize it to themselves because that's psychologically easier than to admit that it was foolish to be a super-fan in the first place.

"They" are whoever holds the monopoly on violence in the region. Sometimes colloquially called a "government" or "state".

You probably don't pay them to uphold their power to close roads whenever they want, it's just a consequence of the aforesaid monopoly on violence.

If you think it's wrong, you can try to bring competition into the market, but if history is any indication you'd better make sure you have a lot of upper/middle-class people who agree with you first.
I picked the wrong week to stop picking my nose...
What I'm hearing here is "my viewpoint is valid because I observed it, and the viewpoint that disagrees with me is biased". Your observations may happen to generalize and be correct, and the other viewpoint may be biased, but that doesn't mean the argument you made in the previous post was correctly reasoned.

If data or research can't support "right wing voices are being censored", while you're perfectly entitled to believe that based on seeing a couple specific voices get censored, it's a bit unreasonable to dismiss claims to the contrary as "left wing bias" when the data simply isn't there to support it.

I personally wouldn't be surprised if you end up with political bias in automated censorship and filtering algorithms, the training set is going to be full of bias and it will be hard to filter that out. But they also quite possibly managed to come up with something that isn't leaning in any particular direction.

Between the two possibilities "Twitter is suppressing <x> speech" and "Twitter is not suppressing <x> speech and a few people are crying censorship to try and get unbanned/get attention" I think occam's razor suggests the latter, personally, because we know it has been an effective tactic in the past and that sort of speculative claim gains traction regardless of whether you can prove it.

Lots of people claim to be shadowbanned when they're not, similarly.
Well worth visiting. The nearest town is probably 1.5 - 2 hours away from the main site. It is truly in the middle of nowhere. The pyramids are enormous and spectacular. Basically all of the site is shrouded in jungle. I do not think you can see the acropolis with surviving paintings but perhaps this has changed.

Also from the top of one pyramid you can see what looks like a mountain maybe 20 miles away in Guatemala. Very interesting and unusual for such a flat region! In fact it isn’t a mountain at all, but another pyramid at the (mostly unexcavated) El Mirador site in Guatemala. By some definitions, that other pyramid is the world’s largest. The calakmul pyramids are themselves enormous.

Cannot recommend the Mayan sites of the Yucatán highly enough. If you have only been to Tulum you are cheating yourself! Definitely worth a trip to Mexico!
I know what you are saying, I have an M1 Pro MBP, and the thing is as quiet as a church mouse.

It just seems to me like Apple (with the trashcan) painted themselves into a corner with thermals. Then Intel did the same by missing node generations and are just pumping more current (or voltage, heck I don't get electricity). Now Nvidia is doing the same now with an aging reference platform that needs an overhaul.

I feel that it's simplistic to say that Apple has the right strategy with APU's, because gamers want faster and faster gaming performance whereas Apple are making custom silicon for very narrow use cases (namely video editing) and consumers perusing the internet and organising photos.

Funnily enough, I do think that Apple have the right formula longer term for general purpose computing with APU's.

It just that if Nvidia want to keep pumping out bigger and bigger GPU's while upping the voltage and heat then things need to change.

The x86 platform needs a page one rewrite.

EVGA opted out.
Given that most folks who use Pantone colors shouldn't be, I don't see this as a loss --- folks who actually want to use spot colours should pay.
FWIW the way I do it is to convert a video to single frames. Then it's a very easy matter to select the 'perfect' frame(s) from the bunch.

After that, extra image processing is just ordinary old image processing. Use whichever image processor floats your boat.

If the private keys are distributed inside an approved client app then any competent hacker can decompile the binary and extract the keys. At that point the keys can be used by bots or other unauthorized apps, and there's no reliable way for the server to distinguish them.
What language would you prefer to see a P2P search engine written in?

The main contenders are:

* Python, which is very easy to use, with a large ecosystem, but also has a larger installation size and would require users to install a few dependencies.

* Go, which has some existing p2p libraries and compiles to a small and very fast executable, but is more difficult to implement fancy higher-level data structures or use libraries on.

2.

Thank you, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Crawl dataset is an interesting dataset. At 320 terabytes it is too large for any one user, but if a few thousand people divided up the tasks they could run interesting queries as part of a p2p network. It would be something to consider including as the network got larger.
Well, you wouldn't do it by choice. I guess Musk really wants to build the WeChat equivalent for America, where to get anything done you really have to go through his app. They don't need to be best - they just need to make it inconvenient to not use it. And yes, it's an awful vision of the world.
Smashing is one thing, carting off is wholly another.
He paid the price for that (and other things) via lawsuit settlements. Trump also had successful business ventures, so people saw him as a mixed bag. On another note, you don't need to be virtuous to be elected - just look at most politicians.

You mean the commission whose highest ever fine "omg so bigs" ever was a paltry 4 million dollars? Pass, this needs a bit more of an iron fist "we take half your revenue. If you go under, tough shit, you deserved it" approach.
Eh, I think not showing 'downvotes' really helps. Reddit really has a confirmation bias when it comes to upvotes/downvotes so its harder to get inertia to downvote dump on someone.
Yup. Twitter moderation policy could just be Dang. And we’d be fine.

Fair point.. but most (almost all) US cities do not exist only because their owners wanted to go from farm-land —> city. They could not have existed with a local body of authority/government wanting that to happen and planning for it. The point I am trying to make is, yes the author owns the land and no one is taking away his ownership. However, owner is not the only party who gets a say in what happens with his land which is earmarked for agriculture. I know there are cities in the west where you cant even repaint your own houses without getting the permission from cities.There are local laws and zoning regulations as well you have to abide by which author seems to have conveniently left out.
