But we can see Twitter being supported by extreme right foundations.

I'm from Brazil and the extreme right is abusing all the communication platforms. it's a complete madness in what people believe right now. Our society is on the verge of crumbling.
The +999999 bit in my own script automatically goes to the end of the file. There's probably a cleaner way, but that works fine.

I'm not sure if your setup does that.

It's the minor creature comforts that really matter sometimes.
The pinned review which you're looking at is from 2016, and is mostly nonsense. Factorio requires an account for some online features, including automatic updates and access to the mod portal. However, the game itself does not use any form of DRM. You do not need an account or an Internet connection to play the game.

Some of the other reviews look like they might be referring to an old business model the game was sold under where there were multiple different "packages" containing different features (e.g. a couple of puzzle scenarios). This model was abandoned in 2016 when the game was released on Steam; all features are now included in all versions of the game.
They're aggressive and shady (pun intended?) because of government tax breaks that mess with the natural economics of the market. It's become a cash grab by installers to sign up as many people as they can to move money from state coffers to their bank accounts.
> Solar panels (yes, Tesla has a solar panel business) are not doing well.

Seems like BRICS is coming to pass.
Jintao was pro west including lgbt etc.

Xi seems to have really absorbed Wang Hunigs philosophy from the book America v America and is rejecting western liberalism.
I'm stereotyping Musk here, but it wouldn't surprise me if he decided to solve it with AI (sentiment analysis specifically) so the algorithm promotes positive tweets and downranks negative ones. Might even work, since the field has made huge progress in recent years.
If Parler supported open debate, then the phrase "banned from Parler" would not yield the search results it does.

Your second paragraph uses the rhetorical device of an appeal to extremes.

Further, these "young girls" are trans boys/men who are becoming something in strong contrast to who they are. I know we disagree conceptually on that, but I would advocate that aside from the parent, the child, and the doctor, neither the state nor anyone else has standing to involve themselves in that decision.
I have both and found Shapez boring because of how claustrophobic the map is and how limited the resource types are. You can't build at the scale of Factorio because the game starts to lag (the downside of making a game in Electron perhaps). Once you've unlocked all the equipment types the rest of the game is just a loop of find some place on the map that has all the elements you need -> set up extractors + choppers + painters + combiners + stackers -> make belts to ship the product back.

With Factorio you have options for transport (belts, trains, bots) each with their own setup and maintenance challenges, and you have incentive to centralize production of an intermediate and then figure out how to distribute it to many other places which need it. With shapez you just set up new factories from scratch every time because there's only a handful of resources and they're all available everywhere in close proximity to each other.

Also the circuit stuff in Shapez is completely unnecessary unless you go for the goal of building an all-in-one (a single factory setup which can rearchitect itself to build any kind of shape you tell it to). In Factorio you use circuit stuff all the time even for basic tasks, like balancing belts or prioritizing resources to different parts of the factory or turning off parts of the factory to save power or...

I finished Shapez and then had no reason to pick it back up because there's basically only one way to finish the game. With Factorio I not only had variations in the base game I could explore (train bases vs bot bases vs spaghetti belt bases, electric furnaces vs staying with steel furnaces forever, not bothering with solar and nuclear and just staying with steam power forever, etc), I also have mods. With Shapez I have... a DLC that adds puzzles.

But yes, every pro of Factorio and con of Shapez that I listed could be the opposite for someone else. So if you like the low complexity of Shapez then you may not like Factorio.
Yes, and it's been written up. It doesn't have a moderating effect, at least on its own: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/10/02/upshot/these-...

(It was covered by the Times but paid for by a non-partisan group, with researchers participating)
I think you're broadly correct. I'm curious to see where it all ends up. Content moderation is not fun or easy, and I could see him getting thoroughly sick of all of it.

Oh, please there’s not that many edge conditions to Twitter for God sakes. It’s not Google.
They eventually landed (after two failed attempts) by not touching the ailerons at all and using only the rudder.
Musk is way over his head.

If you view the 4chan forums, they're already plotting racist, anti-semitic content and rejoicing. Advertisers will not be happy real quick.
It saddens me to say how much racism and xenophobia Asian people still have to endure because of some conspiracy theories. The way we've been treating Asian people will be the biggest human rights violation in 21st century.
Sheryl Sandberg?
Yeah, I agree with five years at a minimum. The whole ordeal was such a horrible divisive thing… even as someone completely opposed to Brexit, I don’t think we are ready to reopen that can of worms yet. In 5+ years we’ll have much more conclusive evidence of whether it was/was not a successful move economically which might make it a bit more palatable, as you’d be able to compare before and after with cold hard numbers.
Or perhaps its just because Borris had just been elected with a majority to do so and the promise to get it done.

Not exciting at that point would arguably have been far more cynical.
I don’t think many people are cross-shopping Teslas with Bolts or Leafs. The difference in performance and technology is big enough to put them in a different vehicle class. Most of the people I know who are buying Teslas are coming from Audi and BMW, and never would have considered buying a Chevy.
If Musk is actually using Tesla devs at Twitter he better have a rock solid contract for service between the two companies. Otherwise he opens himself up to a shareholder lawsuit for misuse of Tesla corporate resources.
These are times of tremendously unnatural opportunity for people who stick with it. If you doubt your objective value or just don’t like high-stress environments, then yes, start looking elsewhere now.
They need to re-free up the API. Early adopters and hackers really did some great work using the API until they walled-gardened it and rate limited it to make it unusable. They need to do this for goodwill at the very least, but I think it will spark the fire to make it popular with techies again.

Based on the recently published discovery chats we will probably see:

* High def video

* Focus on music publication

* The highest revenue sharing cut from any social media platform for content creators to get people to switch.

* Removal of twitter blue but some kind of subscriptions to edit tweets

* Paid push DMs to followers (e.g. follow this account for drops, then the tweeter has to pay to tweet to this group)
> the rules apply to them just the same as anybody else

Wasn't Trump forbidden from blocking people on Twitter by court order?

> "The First Amendment does not permit a public official who utilises a social media account for all manner of official purposes to exclude persons from an otherwise open online dialogue because they expressed views with which the official disagrees," Circuit Judge Barrington Parker wrote, citing several Supreme Court decisions.
I mean how hard could really be since nobody really has access to the fire hose and only gets showing a little bit at a time which is really horizontally scalable. I mean let’s do the math when NVME Drive can write at 4gbps so scale that to match the influx of data rate with room to spare. The point is Tesla engineers are going to look for nefarious action, not to worry about corner cases. what a non sequitur argument that is
personally I think he's going to try to grow it, but if he's smart a competitor to youtube along with the social media portion would be a huge move that twitter is actually positioned well to pivot to.
>I'm seriously suggesting that denying someone's place in society is denying their existence, yes.

What do you mean denying someone's place in society? Are there are bunch of conservatives denying jobs to trans people or something?

You are being too hyperbolic.

>Conservative government officials, media commentators and militias are regularly attacking transgender people with real-life consequences. It's not just legislative attacks and information campaigns, but harassment and violent attacks.

Please show me conservatives physically attacking or advocating for the physical attacks against trans people.

Harassment is more of a subjective thing. Some people think the Babylon Bee's satire is harassment. I don't think it is. I also don't see any genuine harassment. Please provide examples.

>It's a culture of hate, and there is no excuse for it, and it should be called out.

I have yet to see any hate. Please show me some examples.
I assumed that the report is actually not bot generated, just software assisted?
It's not like the news media stopped quoting every little controversial thing Trump said after he was banned from Twitter... they thrive on sensationalism.

The only thing that's stopped him from being quoted even more is that he's no longer President, so for anything unrelated to his lawsuits or his potential run for Presidency it matters a lot less what he says.

If the Republicans do poorly in the midterms and/or they don't manage to win the Presidency back under Trump's leadership, he'll be ignored even more.

His presence or absence from Twitter has nothing to do with it.

He has his own social network now anyway, so it's not like journalists and his fans don't know where to find him.
Common Geographic Mental Misplacements
If you correctly predicted that your connector would overheat, the obvious solution is not to detect the issue but to fix the design.
It's not, conservatives just like to believe that they are the only ones who value it.
Firing the person who fought against government censorship and worked to establish a balanced content policy for almost a quarter billion people across the planet is not a great move if he wants anyone to believe that. The only people who even know who she is either know the good work she does or had it out for her over the reluctant and long-delayed ban of Trump. She just kind of quietly kept Twitter from turning into a complete snake pit while making sure the maximum number of people could speak. Evidence that keeping your head down and doing good work isn't enough if the people who decide these things don't know about it.
Remember when Google tried to make their own video website? It flopped hard and some company called "youtube" started doing it better, so Google bought them.

When is the last time Google started their own truly successful project, rather than buying it?
They also have a tiny hotbox which encourages misclicks (trying to click "Not Interested" but whoopsie, another view on that video!). Dark patterns galore.

Twitter's had a few technical issues today (huh.) and I've had the same with other tweets. If you reload you should see it.
American Cheese is fantastic! Kraft Singles American however is trash and I hate that I have to explain the difference or that some people think that's what all American Cheese is like.
Doubtful, a day in the life of Twitter employee went viral.

It was clear she didn't do much of anything. Twitter could probably trim all the adult daycare shit.
Shutting down discussions when they start to get disrespectful is what ensures that you only see respectful discussions here.
I like how the bar for "cancel culture" is so low that getting downvotes on hackernews counts. The horror.

Set the filter to 3-22kW or so, and in Europe at least you will see a lot of on-street chargers. London especially.

In some places they are added to street lights, since those had a thick cable for the old sodium lights but don't need the power any more for LED lighting. In others, it's a new post between two parking spaces.
According to sources he was unbanned before Musk got there
I don't think I'd be putting much money on this PM and his appointments making it to the next scheduled GE (early 2025, IIRC?) given the ability of the Tories to rip themselves apart over ideology.
OTOH a like would mean a lot more because it would mean someone literally put their money where their mouth is.
On the other hand it seems one method is more likely than the other, given the legal implications of each.
You have causality backwards.

It was believed that since they were not the same thing it would be possible to safely raise someone as an arbitrary gender despite that not being the case.

The failure is in that both gender and sex are biological characteristics, and at that point in time Money believed that gender was strictly social - which is _clearly_ inaccurate.

In short - Reimer was forced into the life of being a trans person, despite having been born cis.
Wow — great episode, and I had no idea this series was a thing. Thanks for posting!
Do you mean calling people psychotic?
My view is that, whatever is causing developers to often be bad at filling in context, it isn't a deficiency in their theory of mind.

(Similarly, someone elsethread is talking about how their non-developer colleagues neglected to tell them about an upcoming release. One possible explanation is that their colleagues were bad at "theory of mind", and believed that as they knew about the release, so did everybody else. But I think it's more likely that they were too disorganised to make sure that it was somebody's job to tell everyone who needed to know.)
Factorio devs are what I want to be when I grow up. So much attention to detail and such an incredible game.
Don’t forget the Roadster! Or whatever the really fast one is called.
you can see with youtube premium that the value of individual ad views is basically nothing, and getting users to pay a reasonable monthly fee ends up being much more profitable. nobody will do the 'pay per video' thing because its not as profitable as just getting a monthly sub.
The problem isn't with older PSUs, they can work fine with a good adapter.

The problem is with the adapter design, it is not just one bad choice but multiple layers of negligence that compound the issue.

* The adapter has 6 pins all bridged together by thin connections that can break.

* 4 heavy gauge wires are attached to those pins with a surface mount solder joint. They're not through hole soldered which would provide more contact AND far greater strength. They're not crimped which would provide the best contact and strength.

* There's no strain relief. So if you hold the cables close to where they're soldered to the connector and flex it you can easily break those surface mount solder joints.

* Because the 6 pins / 4 wires are all bridged asymmetrically, some bridges have more current passing through them and if they're fatigued or damaged they'll have higher resistance. Higher resistance means more heat.

Overall it's just really poorly engineered on multiple levels. It's diarrhea poured over-top an open face shit sandwich.
4chan is a forum. Everyone who browses a 4chan board sees the same posts. For that reason, these boards are moderated, but apparently not heavily enough for the tastes of some people, to whom for 4chan is the epitome of horror.

Twitter is a platform. Everyone who uses twitter decides who to follow and who to block. Everyone sees different tweets.

Twitter for a long time had almost complete freedom of speech. It described itself as the free speech wing of the free speech party[1]. In that time, it had fewer rules then 4chan. But to use twitter did not feel like using 4chan, unless you decided to follow the kind of people who post on 4chan.

[1]: https://www.theguardian.com/media/2012/mar/22/twitter-tony-w...
i guess that's the dividing question at hand. What happens when you let culture self-regulate its own speech, instead of these companies doing it on behalf of everyone like some kind of moral paragon when we all know many things aren't absolute or resolved and multiple conflicting opinions will always exist.
I would think that advertisers would eventually notice anyway. If lead quality decreases due to poor ad targeting or high-value users leaving the platform then they'll start pulling their advertising dollars back.

I have to wonder if there was already some pushback from larger advertisers that prompted Elon's tweet in the first place. Time will tell but we've already got 4chan and some users and advertisers would rather go to a "mall-like" experience to not have to deal with the "crap".
They'll go where the eyeballs are, this is capitalism, in the end. If Twitter manages to attract more eyeballs, the advertisers will come.
> why not force Home Depot to move their goods outside to sell?

Because a lot of products can't stay outside. It would be incredibly disruptive to operations. Not to mention that many stores, including Home Depot, did start offering curbside pickup to reduce risk.

Fire danger is omnipresent and essentially forever. Pandemics are not. So your analogy doesn't apply. I don't even know why I'm bothering. F it. Have a good weekend. Pretend you won the argument.
That's a bit Crass

will still have to oblige. Definitely no "hate speech, incitement to terrorism and child sexual abuse."

For his part, Musk has said he wouldn’t allow illegal content on the platform.
> In fact, you can even plug in a generic TP-Link USB-C Ethernet and that works, taking priority over WiFi, and running at gigabit Ethernet speeds.

Decidedly not gigabit speeds... since USB 2 is capped at 480Mbps.

Frankly - decent wifi since 802.11N, released in 2009, will outperform that dongle you just recommended. Since N is rated for 600Mpbs, and again... USB 2 caps out at just under 500Mbps.

Honestly, the AX standard is fucking 20 times faster than that hardwired dongle. The device itself is slower - with the 10th gen model only supporting up to 2400Mpbs (https://support.apple.com/guide/deployment/ipad-wi-fi-specif...) but you'll still do fuck loads better there than you would with the dongle capped at USB 2 speeds.

---

Regardless - my point is that they don't want you doing direct device to device connections anywhere they can get away without it. Which is pretty clear, since they've completely hobbled a port that should be capable of up to 10Gbps down to 480 Mbps. Roughly 1/20th of the speed you should be getting out of it.
Disclaimer: Previously worked in Toyota's EV R&D division, opinions my own.

> Remember, Tesla has to become bigger than Toyota to justify the stock price. It is not possible to do that at Tesla's current price points. It is not possible to do that at Tesla's current price points.

Long term Tesla has to create a balance sheet and a narrative that convince people that it's current valuation is justified. Based on my time in R&D I think Tesla might achieve that through lower cost vehicles - they were taking some very bold steps in manufacturing that might be hard for others to catch up to - but could also achieve it through other means.

One thing I was very aware of at my time at Toyota was how many of the nascent supplies of Lithium and Cobalt Tesla was snatching up directly or indirectly. Even if other companies can deliver a lower cost of production it may not matter if they can't supply the batteries. 3-5 years from now those investments might pay off substantially in lower costs for Tesla's rather than other vehicles even if the bets in manufacturing don't work out.
I disagree, I believe racism, discrimination, and prejudice are all separate concepts.

Prejudice is the internal feeling that another group is inferior. Nearly all of the tweets above exhibited prejudice.

Discrimination is acting on that prejudice. Feeling someone is inferior is one thing, acting on it is a notable different thing. Again, nearly all the tweets there were discriminatory. No disagreements from me.

Here's where we'll disagree:

Racism is discrimination with social power. There's a clear difference between a weak, powerless group discriminating and a powerful group discriminating. In both cases, the discrimination is absolutely wrong. Discrimination against white folks is wrong. But it's clear there is some type of discrimination against a race where the powerful impact the minority disproportionally. Sentencing of criminals, for instance.

The phenomenon of disproportionate impact absolutely exists, but we can disagree whether that should be the definition of racism. That's fine. If you believe racism is "any discrimination based on race", then yes, these tweets would be racist. If you believe "racism is discrimination based on race with a systemic power imbalance", then no, most of these tweets are not racist.

I believe both definitions are valid and cultural. I'm happy to engage with your definition if it's different. Both definitions are in common use, and obviously clash, but I think it's useful to say, "which definition are we using, and using that definition, would these tweets be racist?"

There's no need for you to throw jabs or make sweeping generalizations. We, you and I, can chat politely about this.
More profit. It’s a message board.
Yeah, they definitely did something like this. I recall you could return the DVDs to their stores to speed up the turnaround. And they eventually started a short price war with Netflix. But IIRC they had a lot of debt to begin with and combined with much higher overheard from all the stores it ended predictably.
Really seems like splitting hairs when your specifying which specific part of the cheap faulty component is "responsible".
The simple (and inevitable) solution is for some accounts or tweets to be withheld in certain countries. No company can avoid complying with the law; but they can't be forced to take down a tweet worldwide either.
It's ok, I'm sure your comment won't be sarcasm in a generation or two.

I'm looking forward to the day my PC uses more electricity than my air conditioning. With the power of GeForce I might see that day.
And the code is not the hard part it’s the scaling in the architecture to handle the rate at which the data will flow.

This certainly must not be true.
So anyone that is celebrating this Musk announcement is telling on themselves

This is exactly the sort of tone that improving balance is intended to counter.
In the real world, sure. The Internet would have us believe that civil war is imminent. We need to stop letting the 1% of people who bother to post online drive our national dialog. We have put the crazies in charge of the asylum.
> they've weathered the recent crises worse than the EU has.

Is Covid not a recent crisis?

The UK response to Covid, specifically to sourcing vaccines and vaccinating the vulnerable and elderly population, appeared to be significantly more nimble and efficient than that of the EU. Judging by the investigation launched into the EU's vaccine procurement[0] more transparent, too. The UK also dropped restrictions in early 2022 after high vaccination rates and the arrival of Omicron appeared to break the link between infections and hospitalisations.
