Point taken. It's messy.

You could even say that simply replying "the Earth is round" is harassment if it's repeatedly targeted at an individual or flat earthers as a group. But this is what the block or mute button is for. Everyone has the right to curate what they hear or see. They don't have the right to curate what I or you hear or see.

Silencing "the Earth is round" at the platform level for everyone is where it becomes objectionable.
> Likewise many people say they can't hear the noise ANC headphones produce - it seems likely to me that they're either in a too loud environment so it's masked at all times, have hearing damage or both.

On my old QC-35 I couldn't hear it, but it's pretty noticeable on the QC-45 I got after those broke.
It's perhaps a bit worse in terms of raw throughput. It likely doesn't impact the user experience in any perceivable way, though.
Most of it is likely being spent on the backend pieces that support delivery of the content. That being said, it's still an insane amount of money for something that really needs to wait a few decades for hardware to catch up.

Everyone got excited with VR, myself included. I bought a VR rig a few years ago and it's fun, but it's got it's own limitations.

My experience with VR:

First year of ownership - 400ish hours in VR.

Second year of ownership - Maybe 100 hours in VR.

Third year of ownership - My wife and I break it out to play beat saber a couple of times a year.

I'm not sure what he means by that. Is it just a tongue-in-cheek description for the opposition to the Iranian party? Is it used by the party to describe pro-western people locally? Or is this just another overused Redditism?
Conceptually, I clicked it and thought I would learn something about the Iranian firewall, but instead I ended up at "The Hackers Choice" blog, a blog with exactly two articles, and read a confusing rant along with a laundry list of firewall techniques talked about in vague enough terms that I learned absolutely nothing, other than to be skeptical about this source going forward.
The policy doesn't make sense. Farming benefits massively from economies of scale, and farmland in most of Eastern Europe is already very fragmented due to "agricultural reforms" in 45. If you're not familiar with that situation it is you who need to ask themselves some questions. Look at how messed up Haiti is, much of that results from the way they delt with land ownership. Every family owing their own little scrap of land sounds nice, but makes zero economic sense.

I didn't say the goverment is schizofrenic, but their message certainly plays on xenophobic fears. Its clearly a part of a populist agenda, because we need people with capital buying up land, but its super easy to frame this as a malevolent action to less educated people, and that is what is being done for purely political reasons. And this policy is exactly what I would call "overly prohibiting": I can't sell my farmland even to local farmers who live a few miles away cause they happen to be in a different couty. Cmon thats just stupid.
Nope, just option to opt out.

"Don't recommend me stuff from category politics"
I think the level of scientific knowledge we have accumulated would be a tremendous short cut.

Even without books, the myths and obvious ruins of previous technological success would be a huge cultural guidepost for recovery.

Perhaps we would go through a 1000 year energy poor "dark age", and recovered populations wouldn't peak as high as ours, but I would expect that to be the worst case if an awareness of our history was not lost.

And maybe 10,000 years, after a complete cultural breakdown to hunter gathering with little functional memory of the past.

Given rewrites of first versions are often much improved for having seen previous failure modes, it would be interesting to pop into the future of a recreated civilization and see how they might do things better!
> hardly a billion worth of revenue

Where do you pull these numbers out of? Twitter's yearly revenue was $5.2 billion.

If you're so off base for the objective metric, want to guess how off you are on the rest of your opinion?
There was an "oldest" filter too. Especially necessary for today's YouTube for us to revisit channels that once used to be good but then gradually fell into dark patterns like everyone else in the industry.
My entire house idles at 500W.

That includes two fridges, a freezer, a NAS, multiple internet uplinks, lighting, an always-on desktop, a half-dozen IoT gizmos and five wireless access points.

The house averages 1-2 kW (including laundry, water heater, water treatment, hvac, dishwasher, oven, cooktop, etc).

A 140W monitor would meaningfully increase these numbers.
I'm confused, are you saying that you don't understand the concept of being offensive, or you believe the concept of something being 'offensive' is an "ultra-woke thing"?
http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/HyperSpec/Body/f_upda...

That's how you'd handle it in Lisp. Smalltalk has something similar, but I'm less familiar with the internals for it. No restart needed, but it requires a runtime that is able to track data instances by type. You could build that onto C, though. Probably with a custom allocator that was passed some symbol indicating the structure type so it could report on instances for executing an update. Would be hard, though, to do this without invalidating pointers when the size changes. You'd probably end up with an extra level of indirection as a consequence to make it simpler (for the runtime author, not for the end user).
He is insubordinate and churlish.
Could you explain why buybacks lead to higher stocks as opposed to dividends? I though they were (theoretical) equivalents.

They're a bit slower (~1s turn-on time) but I have yet to see it be an issue between the Z50, Z7ii, and Z9. Like you said, if I switch it on while pulling it up from the slung position, it's ready to rock by the time the viewfinder has reached my eye. If I bring it to my eye and only then switch it on there will be a short delay.
This is like the unrideable bicycle on steroids...
Massive respect to the pilots who managed to figure it out AND land the plane.
Not sure why you are being downvoted, it's a very reasonable hypothesis.
> India's obsession with paperwork is unceasing and baffling. Everything requires an application, even when everything can be done digitally. You need letters and stamps to get anything done.

I remember once my wife and I wanted to travel by train to a tourist town. After buying the tickets, we realized we had made a mistake (actually, _they_ had made a mistake). So we decided to cancel our tickets and just buy new ones.

We had to fill in an application, attach photos of ourselves, as well as our copies of our passports ... all to cancel a ticket! Boggles the mind.

It feels like a Kabuki theater, set up to keep the people busy and employed.
Terra Invicta isn't done yet though? It's just early access demo?

Interesting idea, I will try that. I have disabled almost everything I could on YT (feeds, comments, video overlays, recommendations, history), but occasionally still encounter the horrible twisted-face-pointing-finger thumbnails.

4932 passmark according to this: https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu_lookup.php?id=4565

That is pretty respectable. But, this is a $165 board, so it seems kind of niche compared to a small PC motherboard at around half the price, unless I'm way out of date.
>there's no alternative

There are and have been many alternatives, but the balance between moderation and userbase is delicate. Assuming a minimum of "only moderate illegal content": Too much moderation and you might get a large userbase, but you get boring content or loud complaints from those moderated, and it discourages real conversation. Too little moderation and you get fun but chaotic/edgy content that drives away an even bigger chunk of people, and also discourages real conversation.

It seems to me that people who want Twitter to moderate less are either looking for the best of both worlds, which might be impossible, or really just want Twitter to be like 4chan, not because they really think it's "what's best", but because they want to attack their enemies in the social/political war, and that would be a big symbolic win.
He's not the lead engineer of anything and many companies manage thousands of employees.
Not the parent, but seeing this CTA, I might - I have one that’s been sitting unused for a long while, even bought the nice case and all. Thought I’d use it but nah.
Of all the links in the chain for the Opiate Crisis, you're going to blame the distributor of the pills?

I get it, hindsight in 20/20 etc., but those pills were prescribed by highly-trained doctors and fulfilled by highly-trained pharmacists who thought they were doing the right thing and you expect some non-M.D. to have the foresight and understanding to say 'Sure, CVS is ordering this amount from us because they have this many pharmacist-approved scripts (keep in mind, this is one of thousands of items CVS is ordering), but I think something is fishy.'

It just seems like that expectation diffuses blame from the actual villains here (the pharma companies that specifically worked to manipulate pharmacists and doctors into writing/approving those scripts).
I think people just need to change their way of thinking. Software these days isn’t really just a program, it’s a complex collection of business relationships and software is just the contract that allows them to operate together, and you’re one end of it. The software is just a supply chain that allows you to create new content, and it can be suddenly broken the same way a physical supply chain can be.
Or to stick with a daily driver. If you wear the same watch except for special occasions it should be fine overnight in a drawer unless something is wrong with the mainspring.

A winder is going to cause wear and tear on watches, so it should only be used if you really need to swap watches daily and have a large collection.

Totally agree with the quality comment. If you think your cheap watch is fragile, perhaps you shouldn't buy cheap watches. I'm a big fan of bulova and they've all been built like a tank.
I don't think the article was completely clear about this, but I was left with the impression that the solution was to always turn the yoke far enough that the spoilers overrode the ailerons. The alternative - to use reversed controls - is so against one's experience that it may not be feasible even if you know what is going on.

Are there any home-computer flight simulators (or their controllers) that can be hacked to simulate reversed ailerons?
It isn't offensive, and no (reasonable) people are claiming it is.

What's not appropriate, is referring to the person that exists today, as Ellen Page.
And many more have made an absolute fortune. Down more than 40% this YTD, even worst if you go from ATH to current prices.

It's also been a trader's paradise given the volatility and occasional appearance of someone mysteriously placing huge OTM call purchases for that Friday in an effort to force a gamma squeeze. In a market with regulators this would be suspicious and investigated, but we're in post-GFC America.
In board games in this genre, "who you are" is often even more ambiguous.

As the author points out, Crusader Kings III is more person-oriented, if that's what you want. Personally I like games where it's slightly ambiguous who you are, but things evolve in a "plausible" way if you play for your goals.
I do all of the above, except the Shorts filter because I didn't know how to do that. Would you be willing to share this?

YouTube is so much better when you remove all the little overlays and dark-patterns meant to get you to watch something else at all times.
Not to put blame on MBAs, but Sloan has always stood out of the pack for me. Others are more “we’re just doing more amazing things than anyone else” kinda elitist, not “we’re better/smarter/more successful etc.” kinda elitist.
I would think one of the pilots would stand behind the plane and verify control surfaces via radio, but I guess that's too time consuming or error prone?

Works fine for cars though. Drive through lube shops and states with safety inspections will perform indicator checks this way. If you push the left blinker and the right light starts flashing you've got a problem...

Hopefully by now the cockpit has access to external cameras to visualize what's happening behind them in real time
Yeah, with Plex things can be added to the Watchlist directly from the apps (including on the TV). It has made a big difference in uptake with my users compared to getting them to log into a website.

There are certain swimmers who acted not too fairly in a swimming competition, but Twitter management was defending that person. I have no problem with that as it's all politics, I just prefer not having the same political side in all media.
Why? Isn't it accurate?
Unfortunately the author won't be able to comment on HN since he got banned 10 years ago.

As a result, he created another site some might know https://lobste.rs

https://jcs.org/2012/06/13/hellbanned_from_hacker_news
I agree to an extent, I think it just has a lot to do with knowing your audience and meeting them where they are. Frankly nobody wants to read a book of a comment and don't always have the time anyway (so they just won't read it all), so while it's important to include relevant information and avoid ambiguous/unclear language, it's also important to keep it concise rather than just spitting out as much information as you can (as I frequently see people do).

The author was definitely getting at this, but (ironically) I think they should have called it out a bit more. It's not about writing as many words as you can, it's about writing _as little_ as you can while still making your point clear and including all the information you think the reader needs.
> turning into a cesspit of toxicity because ‘free speech’

Twitter is already a cesspit of toxicity because of the lack of free speech. This won't make it any worse.
It's possible to be passionate about technology while being young, female and prosocial. Hell, she's expressing herself using the technology platform most popular with her generation.

She should be taken seriously because many people erroneously believe that can't be true.

I've worked in tech for decades, and this doubt you express about a fairly typical-behaving young woman is not unfamiliar to me; and it's rarely proven valid, among my peers. Rather, it's almost always an expression of the jealous misogyny of the complainant.

_Every_ attractive woman I've known in this industry has had to suffer endless doubt about their abilities, beyond what I consider normal.
Understand that the inside of pyramids were supposed to be sealed up for eternity, not visited by people. Visitors would instead go to the mortuary temples in front of the pyramids, which indeed had ornate interiors and plenty of hieroglyphs. With the fifth dynasty pyramid of Unas, parts of what was presumably a funeral liturgy began to be inscribed on the inside of tombs for the benefit of the dead. This idea that these early, looted (and thus, empty) pyramids aren't tombs because they don't have writings inside is as silly as objecting that modern yet-to-be-filled burial vaults aren't burial vaults because they don't contain excerpts from the funeral liturgy from the Book of Common prayer on the inside. The writings on the outside tell you exactly what they are.
It seems like your goal here is to deliberately prevent curious inquiry.
as a pilot, I have to really force myself to 'see' that the aileron is moving the correct direction. Not because it's hard, but because my lizard brain wants so badly to skip over the thing that it has seen so many times that it's no longer interesting.
They gave a trans woman their man of the year award and tweeted about it. Twitter said misgendering is against their rules and blocked the account until they deleted the tweet.

Babylon Bee felt attacked and refused to delete the tweet, so they just left their own account locked.
Wow. Leaving this to a self-learning black box has so many ways it could possibly go wrong.
Surely the truth can be hate speech. For example, a statement like “I hate X and I call on my followers to organize and commit against X” would surely be hate speech even if it’s true.

> You have a choice. Try to do business in India and pay bribes or move your business elsewhere.

This post and the OP's decisions seem to me to be part of an attempt to decrease corruption in India.
Do you mean that the tech is in a worse state than it would appear at first glance, or that literally most of society is built in order to accomplish those same goals.
> Some people will try to push the idea of individualized user-end moderation but that idea has not been successfully implemented since Usenet's Alt heirarchy faded from the internet's popular consciousness. It simply isn't practical and doesn't address that sometimes you just need to kick someone out of the platform for being a caustic shithead

I mean you still need some moderation to push the community the right direction but give people ability to downvote toxic shithole to oblivion and block users and a lot of it is already done. The biggest problem is probably brigading and spamming the space with low effort content but first one is rare and second one don't need that much moderation work compared to trying to moderate every comment.
Alternatively, people who have to explain everything problem from the creation of the universe are even worse. They waste everyone's time and come across like they think you're an idiot. There is a middle ground, but I much prefer if you are direct and get to the point and allow me to ask questions over the alternative where you spend a lifetime bc you're not sure what I know already.
From 2013, though still cool.
Depends on the country. In Czechia, some documents (such as the contract about selling/buying property) require verified signatures, where you go to a notary or a post office with your ID card, sign the document in front of them, they note what document you brought to them into a book of signature verifications and stamp the document.
Am I missing something, or is there no sorting option beyond channel?

That's what drives me nuts about Youtube, is that I can't put "science" youtubers in to a particular, very narrow category separated from other elements. This seems like the feature that would make Youtube infinitely more useful. I can't count how many times I've had to bounce back and forth through the shitty subscription view trying to associate some infinitesimally small avatar with a tutorial video I watched two months ago. Somehow I inevitably miss it, too.

Of course there's no incentive for Google to do this, but these other guys..?
The snooping of unencrypted SNI in the TLS handshake is a known weakness that is still mostly unresolved despite four years of standardization effort. The encrypted SNI work has been revised and updated to encrypted ClientHello and is still technically an IETF draft and not yet formalized in an RFC:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tls-esni/

That said, CloudFlare, Firefox, and Chromium teams have all been working toward the evolving spec so one can hope that soon with eCH and DNS-over-HTTPS we will be able to have clients securely connect to servers without broadcasting the hostname to which they are connecting.
Not saying this is the case but recruiters have quotas and the less experienced ones will blast out emails like this.

I have not been impressed by ANY recruiter pre-screening for any job.

I'm not saying you shouldn't apply, I'm just saying that don't read too much into the fact that they reached out to you directly. It's a numbers game for them.
Do I think it will persuade Gitea Ltd to give back the domains and the trademark? Honestly, I don't have high hopes. Even if each and every contributor to Gitea signed the letter, I'm unconvinced they will do right by the community.

This open letter had to be published even if it has little chance to be effective. It would be horribly wrong for something like that to happen in a Free Software project without offering a simple and gentle way to do right.

Ultimately it is quite possible the only solution will be a fork. And as the Gogs fork showed, it only takes a handful of motivated developers to succeed.
wow what a fucking applefanboy fest it is in here... grow up guys, people have different opinions.

Very few.

Advertisers are the most conservative group in any ecosystem and they have plenty of other options for their advertising spend. Twitter will be no different.

Americans like to make a big deal about wokeness but the concept doesn't really resonate in other countries and Twitter is a global business. So it will be interesting to see how Musk reconciles these dynamics.

He's not a free speech absolutist, he's just making room for his personal ideology. He doesn't need to ban leftists to achieve his goal of pushing them off the platform.
Yeah; I got an AMD 6600xt, and it's not noticeable in my quiet, but not fanless case. Also it adds a few very large, very low RPM fans that only spin up under load. Those help pull air through the case, helping other stuff stay in passive / low RPM mode.

It is counterintuitive, but many fans can end up being quieter than a few fans.
