My question was regarding about having secret to your password manager in a safe, which I agree think is still on-point with the topic for "Have you set up a procedure to disclose your passwords in case of death?".

Storing secret to password manager that can be easily accessed by government and state actors negates all the trouble that password managers went through ensuring no one besides you can access it. I believe every good password manager encrypts data in a manner so that the provider itself can't decrypt it if government tries to get access to it.
Thanks for creating and releasing this. I started getting into walking after the pandemic. There is a nice suburban trail near my house and I have walked several hundred miles on it. This app is inspiring me to take my newfound love of nature and trails for a day trip or even a multi-day trip. I am grateful for your advice to do my homework including learning to use and carry a compass and a map. To wit:

> You should always research your trip ahead of time, plan training hikes, become familiar with the terrain, carry a physical compass and map and know how to use them.

Have you any additional advice for someone who has not really done a multi-day trip before? I have never heard of AllTrails; I will check it out.

I agree fully.

The problem is that Twitter is designed with revenue in mind. Revenue requires the user use the product, ideally as much as possible, and the best way to do that is turn Twitter into a perpetual outrage machine where the loudest, most ridiculous voices get the attention because they inspire the most reaction.

This is why Michael Tracey is so popular there. Nobody actually likes him; he exists to cause outrage and gets promoted by the Twitter algo precisely because of that. Outrage is attention, and attention is what Twitter wants, for revenue.

This seems pretty cool. There's an OSS platform [1] which is nowhere near as powerful, but on the same path

Either "censorship is (in general) bad", or "only a select few should be able to fight against it". That's one thing.

Another: there's law that already prohibits publishing some of the content deemed harmful. Like that law or not, it's there. The OP stresses that his web sites do not break the law. I'm not a lawyer nor KF user, so I wouldn't know, but what's so wrong with letting the courts decide? I'm sure that law enforcement and judiciary are capable enough to handle complaints about the content. They sure do when the content is copyrighted...

The paradox you're mentioning hinges on the assumption that KiwiFarms & similar are actually intolerant, or rather, their continued existence is a threat to the tolerant society/tolerance in the society. Is that really true? I don't know, but I don't think so. How can a tiny community of maybe a few thousands (or tens of thousands?) ever be any kind of threat to the tolerance of a society of hundreds of millions of people? They can be a threat to individuals, but then we're back to previous point: such threats are best dealt with by the courts and police.

One tweet from former US President - just one, maybe even any one, out of hundreds of thousands - would be a much bigger threat to tolerant society than all the KiwiFarms of the Internet taken together. That person had literally tens of millions of followers, and what he published incited riots not seen in a long time. Did KF ever cause anything close to that scale? If not, how exactly are they a threat to "tolerant society"?

Again: not a user, never seen KF before the recent KF vs. Keffars (IIRC), didn't read or see anything else on the site. I'm just reacting to you essentially saying that people should be unable to host and publish things you, personally, find offending and harmful. I don't like that content either, but I exercise my right to not look at it. If it's really harmful enough to the society to warrant "deplatforming" (or whatever you want to call it) then it's OK to bring their case to the court. The judge or jury will decide, and if they find the content actually harmful and against the law, they will issue a warrant and make the content disappear.
Ask HN: Expected value of a $2 powerball ticket is now $4.10. Is it worth it?
With a jackpot of $1.2 billion, and odds of winning at 1:292201338, the expected pre-tax value of a $2 ticket is $4.10 before taxes, and still profitable after taxes.

If so, are you justifying it with the expected value, enjoyment, or something else?

It struck me that this is similar to the arguments for spending time/money/energy preventing "S-risks", like the very unlikely but very bad possibility of hostile AI takeover or other things talked about in the LessWrong community. Here we have an example of a precisely known magnitude of good that could come about, and a precisely known probability of it happening.

If the language explicitly says how strings are defined, libraries that go "Eh, I'll just shove nonsense bytes in this data structure and claim that's a string" are broken by definition.

That's just as true in Java as in Rust. The problem is languages like C++ or D which just don't care and have a "string" type that might just be some bytes.
But you need a tech stack to make sure those features are performant and highly available.
I think the net would become far less accessible. WebAssembly has its uses in certain applications. For high quality streaming or similar use cases it can really help to speed things up.

But for the average website? Not keen on having binary blobs executed for everything. That will at some point come with its own perils and in certain points would be a step back.

For this I have applications. For what would you need a browser then?

Want to develop an ad blocker? Too bad...
Your analogy breaks down. It would be more accurate to say "Do you wear a helmet only on the days you plan to intentionally launch yourself off the bike into a rock?"

If you cannot install a server without ensuring you're running what you expect to be running, you've no business running it at all.
Meliora Therapeutics | San Francisco, CA and Full Remote | Full-time

Meliora Therapeutics is leveraging modern biology and machine learning to drastically improve the efficiency of cancer drug development. In short, the vast majority of cancer drugs fail in clinical trials, and off-target effects are often to blame. We're using sophisticated genomic and machine learning techniques to accurately characterize how drugs affect cells and thereby to develop new drugs more efficiently. Our platform has already surfaced a number of interesting candidate drugs with promising laboratory validation and we are just getting started.

Our founding team has strong experience in software, machine learning, and biology developed through experience at Google, Verily, Benchling, and the Yale School of Medicine to complement advanced degrees from universities such as MIT, Princeton, and UPenn. We are moving with urgency to capitalize on the opportunity ahead of us, and are fresh out of stealth after raising our $11mm seed round. We are backed by leading funds who were early investors in world class companies such as Gilead, Recursion, Insitro, Benchling, and others.

We're looking for talented, ambitious, and creative technical experts to join us in building a machine learning-driven cancer drug development engine. Some of our current open roles include:
- Machine Learning Scientist
- Machine Learning Engineer
- Data Scientist - Computational Biology
- Computational Chemistry Lead

See our careers page for information on these and other roles and to apply: https://www.melioratx.com/careers. Previous experience in biology or computational biology is not required for every role.

> Dev kits are unlimited/unlocked machines by historical definition.

Wait, what? That seems to be very wrong, at least in my experience. Going back to the original Sega Dev Kits and the Atari Jaguar Dev Kit, and now to the XBox and PS dev kits -- none of those make it easy to run whatever you want.

In my experience Dev Kits are targeted toward a specific set of use cases. And they're meant to enable those -- anything else is "you're on your own".
Is this not possible with a service worker? That's too bad. I haven't thought much about the privacy implication but I figure if you go through the trouble of installing a PWA and granting it access to your location then why not? What you suggested seems like a good route.
SEEKING WORK | Europe | Remote preferred
========================================

Get projects unstuck

Roland van Laar is an independent IT consultant who helps businesses use IT.
Be it unstucking a project or building software and bringing ideas into reality.
He started 16 years ago in IT and has since gotten experience in various roles
such as, sysadmin, devops, teaching, coder, project lead, architect and advisor.
Now he's working on helping companies by focusing on process.
I’ve used and tried a lot of hiking apps. And tbh the Organic Maps (fork of maps.me) is quite good for hikes even though it’s “meant” for more urban stuff and is totally free to download huge regions of terrain, and it has good route finding along trails (crazy how all apps don’t have this even some highly rated ones.).
That "paradox" Is flawed a "balanced" society will not be in a position where bad ideas stand unchallenged and remain reputable after being challenged. The tools of censorship are more dangerous existing (meaning they'll eventually be corrupted), than allowing a bad idea to exist and challenged again by society.

Basically to believe the Paradox of Intolerance, you need to be of the belief that society has fallen so much that it cannot be trusted to keep itself free, or that the censors you pick will always be uncorrupted for their entire existence.
> On a third hand, the loved one of a politician was severely injured because of someone who believes the incorrect speech of influential figures and I desperately do not want further injury or violence to occur spurned by incorrect speech on the facts of reality.

Oooh you really lost me here. It feels like you’ve fallen hook line and sinker for the news emotional storyline.

Deranged individuals exist regardless of current rhetoric. Never give up free speech in an attempt to cure society of deranged individuals. It won’t work.

Also, “the facts of reality”. You believe this exists in the political realm?
Given the general tone of 9front, I would say the reference is intentional.
