Once I read an article about a guy who got arrested because he’d put child porn on his Dropbox. I had assumed he’d been caught by some more sophisticated means and that was just the public story. I’m amazed that anyone would be stupid enough to distribute CSAM through an account linked to their own name.

Also Usain Bolt was 15-20% faster at his peak than a decent high schooler. He was nowhere near that when he was in high school. In addition to genetics he was also training much more than a decent high school runner would.

A huge component of genetic potential is a greater response to training. Someone like Usain Bolt could easily slip under the radar just by being uninterested in running.

A common point of design (or at least hope) for SMR is for the design itself to be sealed and fail-safe, no operators and no management, when fuel runs your you replace the reactor and send to to the factory for refurb.

It’s really sad that you need to explain yourself like this. Some people have the perspective that anyone who’s ever been on the Joe rogan podcast is a conspiracy theorist, yet anyone who they’ve ever read about on the NYT is a fully responsible authentic scientist.

It would require changes in regulations around the world. Many ports do not allow nuclear powered vessels to dock. Those regs were written with traditional nuclear power plants in mind but I think there would still have to be a lot of work to get acceptance.

I worked with the internals of this some 16 years ago, maintaining a customized version at Zeugma Systems.

Some changes of mine was reworked by someone and upstreamed:

https://github.com/ccache/ccache/commit/e8354384f67bc733bea5...

If you follow the link to the mailing list posting, you will see I implemented a feature: search through multiple caches.

Say you have a build server which populates a cache. Your developers can point their ccache installations to that. However, ccache wants to write things there. The fix is to have a two-level hierarchy: ccache will look in their local cache first, and then the one from the server. If there is a cache miss, it goes to the local one; the server cache isn't polluted with development objects.
Reddit nags me to install their app every time I open a link on Android/iOS, while recent versions of phone looks fine even on my small phone.
I wanted to create automated lighting that would add a ‘wow’ factor and be fun and very different.

Thanks for mentioning Amy Cuddy. I remembered her TED conference but hadn’t heard about her since. In the meantime, however, I’ve been exposed to the academic world of social psychology. And I’m not surprised about the phenomenon of Amy Cuddy. I’ve seen a fair share of professors using a social psychology course to simply preach what could be called progressive ideology. The funny thing is I entered the field with progressive views myself, but I’m growing more and more confused seeing the bad faith on display.
Engines, planes, PVs. They all gradually became better in a way which doesn’t really map to the organic function they augment, replace or take inspiration from.

Planes don’t fly like birds. There is very little reason for what you would call a “general intelligence” ai to develop in a way which mimics our own intelligence. It might but I would find that more notable that if it did not.

Summary:

A/B test on subtopic pages was performed for a few months.

- Existing subtopic pages with expanding sections ('show or hide' or accordion control)

- Alternative subtopic flat list with subheadings and dividers to organise the content

Half of the people who visited the subtopic pages saw the accordion design, while the other half saw the newer list design.

The data showed quite clearly that the list design performed better, for both desktop and mobile users.

It goes without saying that Taiwan is internationally recognised as part of China. This is true even in the constitutions of both parties in the dispute, the PRC in the mainland and ROC on the island.

This legal fact, which New Yorker article simply ignores, is root cause of the tension between those two governments.

We can recognise today that the people of Taiwan may well covet formal dependence - we will see if and when this is ever put up as an electoral goal by the DPP - whilst also understanding the motives of the PRC to maintain technical territorial integrity, however theoretical the claim.

The entire thing is a fudge of course, but kicking intractable disputes into the long grass is not a bad strategy to keep the peace.

This is another really important point. Socrates believed in the dialectic, where you are engaged with your teacher and can ask questions and test your assumptions and get feedback.

Just reading the material doesn’t afford that opportunity. You can’t ask a dead author of a book questions and get answers back.

That’s why it’s nice to be provided solutions to solve problems in STEM texts. Interactive technology like with modern MOOCs help provide more sophisticated feedback. But still nothing comes close to having access to an actual professor like during office hours.

Any investigatory process must necessarily go through periods of updating understanding in light of new evidence. As such it’s not unexpected that older things thought to be correct turn out to be wrong. That’s part of learning and refining knowledge.

Sorry you had shit school teachers that didn’t help you understand that. I can understand the feeling of being betrayed when something you thought was an irrefutable fact turned out to be wrong by advances in the same field.

Rome became a christian empire pretty late in its history. One might even think that this accelerated its downfall. Originally, Rome was a multi-theist "pagan" empire were the gods of conquered lands could be integrated into the Roman pantheon (most of the original roman gods were greek gods after all).

So we could have seen an islamic roman empire in the late stage which, according to the parent is what the ottomans apparently considered themselves to be.

Everyone in sales can follow their own way. They can do high pressure sales if they wish.

However, it has been proven over and over that having discussions with people is the statistically best way to make a sale. Be actually interested in the person. Ask questions.

This guy took the time and actually took interest in HER:

Liam pointed out a Navy license plate on a car in the driveway.

“My sister is in the Navy,” the woman said.

“OK, well, thank you for your service, and happy Veterans Day,” he said. “Fun fact, I’ve had a relative in every American war, dating back to the Revolution.”

Something softened, ever so slightly.

This is not a cheap tactic to try to "get" someone.

I remember one time I was talking to a prospect over months, he told me that he and his wife were expecting a child in May. I called him at the end of May and we did our regular talk and I asked if his baby was born. Yes, a healthy boy. So I sent him a congratulation card with a hand-written note congratulating him and his wife. I called back in a few more weeks, and first thing he said was, "I got your congratulation card. Nobody else sent me one, even people I've known for 25 years." I got his order that call.

Some might think that this is a cheap tactic on my part to get an emotional response to manipulate the guy. I'm not going to lie and say that I don't think that, but it is in an intellectual manner only. I actually was very happy he and his wife had a healthy baby. I do get emotionally involved with my clients, same as a lot of other business owners do. Maybe like a hair salon person with her or his clients. I've had clients who I saw 3 times per week for years on end. It's impossible not to form a personal relationship.

Even if it is a one-call type of sale, I still like to have a deeper conversation and learn about them, whether they buy or not. I've learned a lot of cool stuff just by talking to people, even if they don't buy.
I would say that with Rust you can be "more" productive by deploying apps that requires less maintenance as for example Ruby or JS app, also a pain with JS/Ruby is updating dependencies, that's a very scary thing to do if you are far behind, while with Rust you can update and instantly see where your code broke.

But I do agree that with Rails you can have quickly a more functional app, but that will be sooner or later not true anymore.
Afaik Dec was pretty mismanaged at this time and Cutler didn't get his project greenlit. So "hired out" sounds more evil than it actually was. Microsoft saw the potential of Cutler's vision while Dec was busy being stupid. Why stay at Dec and work in something you don't believe in?

>a collection of followed feeds is presented in a timeline with the possibility to 'comment'

From my point of view, that's the future.

Using mail is dangerous because it is another protocol, and it still requires account management because nobody will post to arbitrary pages with their primary mail address. That said, mail still has the potential to become the standard for social networks.

Why should comments not be immediately visible? People can already write mails to authors. That's not what builds momentum. The interesting part is the interaction of the audience.

We can build social interaction that improves direct human interaction in the same way that cars improve human movement. I wouldn't focus on slowing it down but on speeding up the filtering so that it is easy to find the individually preferred audience among all possible reactions to an url. The difficult part is to maintain group identities and momentum when all comments are dissected and re-aggregated.

It's problematic to manage comments on the server of a blog post. This creates silos and echo chambers because it is difficult to find the comments of a user on other blogs and creators rarely allow their audience to create their own posts. Newspapers with their comment sections already offer that protocol. We have Facebook because newspapers missed out on coming together and offering the missing parts.

What is missing at Linklonk, apart from opening up to ActivityPub, is long-term conversations on posts. On aggregators like HN, there is an audience at the top comments. Hardly anybody writes comments on old posts. To make comments on off-momentum articles worthwhile, it would be necessary to have a notification function that is triggered not only by replies but also by new comments when they pass a threshold.
That's the beauty in it. You troll and spread obvious lies around pubic conspiracy, so that it takes huge effort to distinguish the truth from falsehood. If you stumble in your judgement once, the debunkers know exactly why you're wrong.

Examples: China spread 5G stupid conspiracies so that opposing china's 5G development and integration would get you associated with conspiracy theorists.

China intentionally released COVID as biological warfare from a lab conspiracy muddled the theory that China had accident in a lab.

It's very easy to misrepresent some conspiracies as believing in some completely crazy things. When there is milder and plausible explanation.

Chips in the vaccine used to distract from the very real conspiracy of planning digital health certificates.

You can't let obvious falsehoods around something distract you. Need to take maths epistemology: false statements prove nothing - both ways! The human nature is for falsehoods to convince you of the opposite statement.
That’s a very English-speaking country point of view.

Do we have an open, decentralized platform that collects and publishes cases of bans?

Of course, every user will cry "unjust ban" while still advertising casino coins or spreading lies. So there are some questions about how such openly documented cases should be reported and how readers can get a full picture, but to me it still seems useful.
I am ashamed to advertise it so bluntly but I wrote a similar tool that might address some of the above requests. The browser extension works with all desktop browsers, Firefox Beta/Nightly on Android (that's how I use it) and with Kiwi Browser on Android. The IOS shortcut has only been tested via appetize.io. There's a sort of sync - RSS and a dedicated web page. Bypasses some paywalls and most ublock/adbock blockers.

I really have to disagree. My perspective is somebody that did some Rails work >10 years ago, followed the hype/money into Node.js and eventually Go, then ended up working in Rails again ~4 years ago.

In my experience a bog-standard vanilla Rails + Postgres setup provides all of the things you mentioned (except presence awareness, which is pretty tricky).

* Server push. Websockets. Push notifications. => ActionCable

* Scheduled jobs. Long running background jobs. => ActiveJob

* Calls into other services. => Pick your preferred HTTP library (or just use Net::HTTP)

All of the above have been part of Rails for years. The only additional Gem I would add is good_job to be the ActiveJob backend.

Now, if you start to bump up against what vertically scaling Postgres can handle, or you want some of the _additional features_ of a 3rd party dependencies (Redis, Sidekiq, Webpack, etc. etc.) you can easily add them, but it's realllly unnecessary for 99% of apps out there.
For a C API, a slice would be a simple { void*, size_t } or { void*, void* } struct, but I guess for memory managed languages this isn't enough information to pin the underlying data into memory (for instance a reference to the underlying 'object' - don't know how such language-specific details could ever be expressed in a 'standard ABI').
