>>avoid-harassment side happier, since they could set their filters to stronger than the default setting,

I don't think it actually would make them happy or happier

This group has a problem with the content existing at all, self moderation tools have been suggested and implemented in other contexts, and in a limited degree on twitter today (mute and block) and that is not seen as "good enough"

The group that opposes free speech does not just want to be in a self guided safe space no they want to ensure no one can says things they have deemed hate speech or misinformation. Many of this group also want to go further and punish people outside of the platform they spoke incorrectly on

So to imply self moderation tools is the solution completely misunderstands the goals of the "avoid-harassment side" which is to control and narrow the Overton window

Isn't the onus on the user to assume risk? If they wish to have an accurate perspective then they have ever opportunity to do so. Sorry, if the contrary is true, and markets don't result in the best of all possible worlds then we have to conclude that free market capitalism is not going to work. The two are inexorably yoked together.
Let's do it like with abortions- let people suffer, let's risk their health until it is clear they will die with intervention. Absolutely necessary is cruel standard.
Everyone should read this risk mitigation solution for loosing 2FA. I always think about printing recovery codes, but having keepass vault with those codes also sounds great. You may even have some random password there and store it printed out in some locations just for emergency.

Anyways, people should think about these risks when dealing with 2FA: flood, fire, stolen, lost, (I) broke (Smartphone, yubikey, usb, etc), broke (itself), software bug, kids, washing machines, etc.

In that case, think hard about yourself, because you just might be sliding into fanaticism, or that kind of suckership that keeps tyrants afloat and fills their armies with cannon fodder since time immemorial.
I've been wondering about this... It definitely doesn't feel great to be on the receiving end of something auto-generated. But a "unique" message is at least more interesting to read, and doesn't feel quite as frustrating.

For me, the difference between youtube and nature.com is quiet low.
Nature.com declares a "breaktrough" every other day.
If they instituted the suggestions in the article and some journalist subsequently wrote a piece with "Anti-semitic tweets found next to Coke ads" or whatnot, wouldn't we all just shrug and say "then change your filters"? It becomes as much a non-story as "Children watching telly at midnight exposed to sexual content paid for by BigCo ads".

I did this on paper until all slots were "blocked" with tasks that became critically important but which (due to shame and feelings of embarassment associated with them) I would never start or finish, then I abandoned the system.

Although this might clash with the idea of keeping the app simple perhaps you could add a prioritizing mode by assigning "urgent", "important" (or both) labels to tasks and ranking them that way[0]

Best of luck for your app! Have you planned to release an Android version at a later point or is your focus solely on iOS?

That's as close as it gets.
An easier distinction would be “censorship is when the government does it.”

Eh, kind of. The distinction between moderation and censorship he uses doesn't really exist in a physical space. You can't set a flag in your profile to not see Nazis at the next table in the bar. Also, he explicitly avoids the topic of whether Nazis should be censored so they can't spread harmful ideas rather than just because they're unpleasant to be around, which is also applicable to the bar situation even if GP didn't explicitly cite it.

Nowhere did I state that. You are putting words into my mouth and making up fake arguments. You are doing a classic straw man. Just stop, with that, and argue actual points that I made.

For the record, I have zero bias against young smart Indian Americans trying to get into college, nor against their parents who have done their best to raise and provide for them.

Is the point of these technologies to make it seem like we can continue on with our unsustainable lifestyles without making any inconvenient changes?

What about the host of other pollutants that come out of vehicle exhausts? What about surface ozone, sulphur dioxide, and soot particles? Maybe we shouldn't be focusing on such remedial technologies that let us believe we can carry on as we are without needing to give things up that are bad for the environment.
The difference is that a bar is a physical place, you cannot isolate yourself from the Nazi on the next stool and shut your ears against his tirades.

In the digital space, filters work just fine. Your messages will live in the same database as the Nazi's, but you can be completely isolated from seeing them if you set up your filters accordingly.
And I would only look at test scroes like SAT. Nothing else. Maybe few exceptions on relevant competitions like math olympics medalists.

Not according to my experiences. Most of my tooling is high end and the company I work for lets us order from brands of our choice, which lead to a fairly broad range of competing products across the workbenches here. I have never seen even once a case where a chinese high end product surpasses or even comes close to its japanese counterpart.

I think that this will impact interior and home decor as well. Here we want light that will render colors well and be healthy for plants and humans alike. But this was often expensive (thinking of Metal Halide lamps) or compromised on human comfort (thinking of Flourescent grow lamps). Cree has made it more affordable and healthy to bring living plants into human spaces as a general rule. Which is very exciting from a design perspective!

Let's up the ante and see where you stand.

In Britain, criminals were stealing the thick, copper cables used for power and signaling of the railway. They wrapped a chain around cables near a road crossing, attached it to a truck, and dragged a significant length of cable away, to sell as scrap.

That naturally means the railway can't be used for many hours, occasionally over a day, and costs a tremendous about to repair. (It is one of the most safety-critical large systems around.) There's huge disruption, as 600 people per train every 20 minutes simply don't fit on any other means of transport.

Compared to catalytic converters, the disruption to society is far greater, the replacement cost much higher, and the scrap value relatively lower.

About 10 years ago, a law was introduced forbidding scrap metal dealers from paying cash, and requiring them to check ID. That led to a 30% drop in theft.

Is that a reasonable law?

Wind turbines!

This example is immensely funny to me, since in the 90s the NSA stole trade secrets related to wind turbines from the German company Enercon and passed it on to the US company Kenetech, who then managed to get a patent in the US.

English sources are a bit scarce, but here's an article that references it:

> Some months later, a former NSA agent admitted that the organisation had secretly intercepted Enercon's data communications and monitored conference calls. The NSA passed all the information it gleaned on to Kenetech.[1]

There's also a report on ECHELON for the European parliament that mentions this case among others[2]. Some more cases became known through documents leaked by Snowden.

To complete this circle German intelligence services would now have to steal trade secrets related to wind turbines from China, but sadly they're explicitly forbidden from conduction industrial espionage - to the chagrin of German companies who are feeling disadvantaged.

Did anyone see the limitations of this implementations?

Usually you only a limited number of registers available, i.e. number of local vars. This is limited by the oparg byte, i.e. 255. So with more than 255 needed local vars you need a fallback to either an extended opcode or a stack opcode.
This can be optimized in the compiler to limit the practical number of regs to match the CPU, but you still need a fallback, and I didn't see that mentioned in the paper.
> One final significant benefit of JPEG XL is that it has a broad scope: while it is a great format for web delivery, this is not the only use case it was designed for. JPEG XL can also be used as a capture format, where it can play a role similar to current camera raw formats: high precision, high dynamic range, lossless or minimal lossy compression. It can also be used as an authoring format, supporting named layers, selection masks, multiple alpha channels. It can be used for printing use cases, supporting e.g. CMYK and spot colors. It can be used for medical or scientific applications, supporting high-precision lossless compression and multispectral imaging. And so on. It is a general-purpose format that covers many different use cases for digital imaging.

So that's all impressive and useful and probably quite good, but my first reaction is that sinking feeling from being faced with unexpected complexity. Is the JXL format a nightmare internally? Is it a nightmare to use the library as an inexperienced app developer? Do you need to care about those unusual features if you just want to display an image? I expect that it's all fine, since what little I've heard has been good. If so, kudos to the designers because that's an ambitious feature list. It feels uncommon for a format of any kind to set out to be all things to all people and succeed.
all socks suck, except Darn Tough.
There is quite a lot of good advice here, however with one caveat. Documents require constant maintenance, and a "living" document that several people can edit is probably contradictory to the "always stay accurate" principle. Not everyone shares the same mental model of the project and sometimes things change but not everyone knows at once.

You can choose an accurate document that doesn't change often, or an accurate-ish "dynamic" document that is managed by a single entity, or a document editable by more people. You can't have a perfectly accurate document that's also changing constantly and is managed by multiple parties.

As a side note, thank you for not coming up with silly acronyms for everything.

I like your theory and it puts into words this nagging feeling about gift-giving (material or immaterial) which I had for years.

And what was the society answer to racism? More racism but directed towards groups that were deemed "offenders".

This is obviously false and we should return to the situation where all people have equal rights.
