Technology destroyed the Fourth Amendment. If the government couldn't fly the helicopter themselves, they would just buy the data, as they already do your cellphone location data, car tag scan data, credit card purchase histories, etc.

It's going to be clearly silly for most people to say that multibillion dollar corporations are allowed to conduct unlimited surveillance on you, but the government can't. The 4A was encoding a legal right to the societal expectation of privacy. We've spent the last 30 years blithely destroying that social expectation via tech. Of course no one much is up in arms in it now - we've trained it out. Big Data and the Fourth Amendment are antitheses. Even if you were to somehow rile up enough people to force some sort of legislation against stuff like this, it's going to happen anyway, illegally, and they'll find a way to get away with it. Consider the myriad abuses of the CIA and NSA. What happened when the CIA spied on Congress illegally as Congress investigated their other illegal actions, and then got caught, then lied about what they were doing? Absolutely nothing, and the guy in charge is now considered a hero by a whole political faction and is a frequent media commentator expounding his opinions as a Trustworthy Expert.

In a world where you're dealing with human beings, you can't have giant repositories of extremely useful data in centralized locations and think that a "don't look at this" sign is going to do you any good. You have to not have giant centralized repositories of data people care about. The Fourth Amendment could only effectively exist in a world where privacy was valued and invading it meant breaking into someone’s home, or his lawyer’s office, or paying people to follow him around all day.
To clarify, I tried it a couple months ago for the first time in 6 years.

Simply bring your ideas and thoughts to the screen. Made to be easy and simple.

I have made this app to break free from linear thinking and note taking by making mind mapping just a tap away!

- Create text bubbles with a long tap on the free space.
- Change the bubble size by tapping up for bigger or tapping down for smaller
- Tap a bubble to select, edit it's content and change it's color.
- Drag the bubble anywhere you want to rearrange it!
- Long Tap to remove a bubble
- Double Tap a bubble to dive deeper and have more space for your ideas!
- Search through your bubbles
We should also acknowledge that language more often than not works in approximations and generalizations, and usually everyone still understands what is meant. There needs to be some flexibility on both sides.
Assuming you are asking in good faith:

Yes, I'm referring to several groups of people - trans men who were born women, intersex people who may have been assigned man or woman, non-binary/queer/agender people who were born with a functional uterus.

All three of those groups might not be women. They may identify as female, but not women. Or they may not identify as female.

Language is evolving and not settled at all, but there's a movement to separate the concepts of "man" and "male". For example, we can probably agree that Bruce Willis is manlier than PeeWee Herman. But they are both male. Manliness, how much a "man" someone is, is a huge spectrum and it's socially defined. Likewise, how "womanly" someone is is a spectrum, and also cultural.

By separating the concepts of man from male, and woman from female, we can discuss how womanly or manly someone is, and what our societies expect from the roles of women and men.

I find it useful. Others have strong aversions to even discussing the concept. I'm happy to answer further questions!
When we are talking 8 billion it is exactly that
> Bill Gates is, for example, not particularly manly, but he's absolutely male.

What does manly mean? Because Bill Gates does not seem to be missing features that I find typical of males in the US. Otherwise, I would say pretty much all male office workers and many other males are as “manly” as Bill Gates”, at which point I figure the word loses utility.
>Cell records seem like “papers” to me.

But would they seem like papers to someone in the 1700s? "Papers" in that context are physical documents, parchment and ink.

That's the problem with Constitutional originalism - it boils down to interpreting the mind of an imaginary ghost, which fundamentally leads to justifying confirmation bias by proxy.

> No one checks genitals...

If someone advertises as, say, "a man seeking a woman" in the local paper I think they probably are going to checking genitals. A very key reason why we have genders is specifically to advertise what genitals someone has, because that is need-to-know information for pregnancy and then building up a family.

I started an airplane turbulence forecasting website for nervous travelers back in 2005 (think - will it be bumpy when I take my flight from Chicago to New York tomorrow?). It started by repackaging government turbulence maps in an easy to use manner, and has evolved into a service where I handwrite forecasts of turbulence for your flight, and now offering automated turbulence forecasts.

It has been used by employees at nearly every airline, including dispatchers, flight attendants, captains, and I've gotten many emails saying it has allowed people to fly again, to take new jobs, and continue relationships because they know what to expect when they fly.

> You really haven't paid attention to anything Russia's done for the last 20 years, have you?

> They love letting the west know they can "touch" us while maintaining plausible deniability...

This is just a feeling of self-importance having a crossover with years of typical boogeyman narratives.

Reality doesn't function that way, nobody will be losing sleep and precious resources just for the kicks and to stick it to the westerners, without any substantial gain - let's keep it sane and reasonable.

> Also, it's not the only pipeline to Europe...

And? Please be specific, it's impossible to guess what someone is imagining and implying.

> And the US could have pressured EU allies into not purchasing Russian gas regardless of what Russia did.

Not sure what you mean. They tried and failed. Not that they tried too hard - it would have been impossible anyway. NordStream pipelines weren't even the biggest carriers of Russian gas to Europe.
Plenty of negative comments on this thread. Basically it's just your feeling. No hard data.
- pay a shady botnet to do it for you

- buy a bunch of VMs and curl your site's weakest point (don't wait for the http response) / use loadtesting tools

- change the site infra to support 1 request per second at most, and hit it with 2! :D

- posting the url here will get you far

- develop an app for your site, make it super popular and let it call home (an unidentifiable and cache breaking request -- many have fallen to this)

Depending on the deployment and the site's infra, this can be trivial. Or you might need to pay a botnet (or create an app with x milion downloads, whatever is easiest).
Who are you?

What I mean is the service advertises "Verify they are who they say they are" but I can't see a postal address anywhere on ther page including the terms and privacy terms. For a company that wants to collects and process passport photos that's a surprising level of intransparency. Security page reads "Trust must be earned, and we intend to earn your trust with transparency of our security processes and practices."

Definitions change.

Language isn't static.

Science isn't static.

Woman (and man) as terms are evolving in their use to mean "the roles we expect people to fill based on their sex".

You might disagree with this evolution of the language, by all means, I am not the arbiter of how language should change.

But I do believe saying a word has a fixed, unchanging definition (and adding that your definition is the only correct one) is not a useful position to hold. I believe that even if you disagree with the use, you should acknowledge that a significant number of people have different definitions from you.
Adding a few thoughts, largely agreeing;

Power is just the ability to effect change — energy over time.

Growing rice is power; and considerably more people have obtained power, as defined by imposing their will on their immediate environment, in the pursuit of feeding their families than any other use of power I can think of.

I think that’s the point here:

In associating power with bad things, you’re narrowing your perception of what power is, and hence limiting your ability to accrue it towards positive ends — eg, feeding a lot of people.

I think power itself is neutral; kind, manner, and use matter.

To put it in a fantasy context:

- Gandalf in Lord of the Rings is considered wise for refusing the One Ring and seeking to destroy it;

- but there’s no doubt that Gandalf is powerful — he beats both a balrog and the Witch King in 1v1 personal combat;

- and he’s okay with accepting more power — he accepted a ring of power from the elves.

Personally, I think you can’t be virtuous unless you’re dangerous.

I'm not making the determination. It's the only logical one to make if we're to live in a society that values tolerance as a first class citizen.

Relatedly, there's a distinction between freedom of speech v. freedom of reach, the latter of which nobody has.

In a hash table, I want my equality function to be based on the actual value, not the super special comparison for a specific type.

If I write a UniqueNumber that just returns false on the == operator, I'd be stupid but the hash map should still work. Java has a separate getHashCode() and equals() method for a reason.

Either provide a hash key override or use the raw bits for deep compares. Custom equality algorithms usually don't make sense for arbitrary key-value stores.

So when exactly did you go into the coma you just awoke from, 1993? No sort of forum can operate solely on content users explicitly follow. That's just unfederated blogs. On an online forum there's always going to be some public stream that pulls content from all user posts. Without moderation it almost instantly devolves to bigots and spammers. We've seen this routinely for the past 30 years of online forums.

So "just don't follow" is not only meaningless advice but it's painfully naive.
Yes, but mostly because it is a very weak analogy that teaches us nothing.

I think it's interesting that Lewis Carroll described this battle over language many years ago

‘When I use a word,’ Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, ‘it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.’

‘The question is,’ said Alice, ‘whether you can make words mean so many different things.’

‘The question is,’ said Humpty Dumpty, ‘which is to be master — that’s all.”
You're confusing private and anonymous. Anonymous would be that no one knows you searched "cucumber." Private would be that someone could know that you did but it isn't shared with every single person for any reason. DuckDuckGo for instance is private in the sense that no one knows you searched what you searched, but Bing Ads knows the query to serve you a relevant ad. Signed-in to Google, Google would know your query and target an ad based on it, while adding it to a profile— in other words, it isn't private or anonymous. In a perfect world or using a search engine like searx, it's private in the sense that only the searx server knows what you searched and anonymous in the sense that Google wouldn't know who from that searx instance searched a query.
> The many folks paying desalination prices to waste water raise the price for those who don't.

Not necessarily. Water prices are regulated anyway, so the rule could be something like "the first 3,000 gallons per person per month are at today's prices, and the rest of your usage is at desalination prices", or "you can choose whether your water source is cheap Lake Mead or expensive desalination, and water conservation rules only apply to people who pick the former".

The term 'man' infers gender while 'male' refers to sex, and has nothing to do with the term 'manliness' in the context you described.

The language is 'evolving' only among a very small subset of people on earth who happen to believe they are the 'social vanguard', that doesn't make them so.

The response to the linguistic disassociation between the obviously inexorable relationship between gender and sex is, I would guess, considerably bigger and I don't think this argument is going to be won but the language antagonists. I think society is going to accept trans people, which is good ... but I suggest we're never moving away from classical gender terminology.

The rest of the world is coming online very quickly and they want nothing to do with our linguistic wars. They'll change their language when they start using 'Latinx' (a term invented by 'colonialist progressives') in Mexico which is to say, probably never.

And by the way that's perfectly fine. Paradoxically, in many other parts of the world trans people are far more commonly accepted and have been for some time, lo and behold, they use 'men and women' in the common sense, without any problem at all.

In Canada, they fight over whether the stop signs should say 'STOP' or 'ARRET' (aka English or French) because that's how rich and prosperous they are, they can afford to inflate ideological inanities to the level of material concern.

"to protect transgender men and women, a class of people who are supposedly more “oppressed” than biological women. Even if this were true (and I’m deeply skeptical)"

I thought trans people being oppressed was clear statistically and unambiguous. I am surprised at her skepticism. Are the statistics not clear? One can quibble over causality, but my understanding is that they are a group with massively higher rates of suicide and depression, and so a group that would likely benefit from support.
Yes, I read that man page. It states:

EOVERFLOW: pathname or fd refers to a file whose size, inode number, or number of blocks cannot be represented in, respectively, the types off_t, ino_t, or blkcnt_t. This error can occur when, for example, an application compiled on a 32-bit platform without D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 calls stat() on a file whose size exceeds (1<<31)-1 bytes.

None of off_t, ino_t or blkcnt_t are to do with times, they are related to file size. The man page has nothing to say about EOVERFLOW and times. Perhaps the man page is out of date, or perhaps it is another syscall that is returning EOVERFLOW?

I'd be surprised if it was actual userspace code in the font library that was generating that errno. After all, if you care enough to spot an overflow in your calculations, you probably care enough to handle that error case better (and know enough about the situation to handle it properly). Something must be making a specific syscall, getting EOVERFLOW, then throwing it back up to the user. But is it really the ubiquitous stat() ?
