> Facebook are notorious for basically doing zero content moderation in Asian countries (see Myanmar)

None of us know what kind of content moderation went on there. There is no public index of what gets removed, and according to Brandon Silverman, even Facebook itself does not review it:

> "violating content... in a lot of cases what happens is it gets removed, it gets taken down from the platform, and more often than not, essentially deleted, just disappears forever. A lot of that violating content is really important to the public interest, and it would be enormously valuable if we were able to create spaces for that content and the actors involved and the networks they create and build to be studied by an outside community, and an independent research ecosystem over time."

It's possible that whoever was removing content there was close to the military. We don't know. Other Asian countries could have similar influence. Isn't it accepted that Mark wants to bring Facebook to China? Maybe they wanted to see Facebook demonstrate its content controls before allowing them in. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Wow, this is actually nice to spot all the worst company/brand/product on the market. I wonder if they are in talk with EA for some red edition of games and loot boxes.

The idea wasn't bad, I don't get how they choose their products. Maybe this is a kind of green-washing for those companies (for social matter instead of environment).
Agreed. It's tragic that she passed away. The content of her 92 videos describe Japanese grammar better than any textbook in existence (ignoring her own small booklet - and unfortunately she passed before she could finish her newer book).

There is not one single mention of children being subject to gender-affirming surgery in that article. At all.

You have been continuously repeating this misinformation and have failed to produce one single shred of evidence to suggest it is anything but.

From my understanding, explicitness of passing and usage - if your application for example logs all env variables `FOO=bar myapp` would log `FOO=bar XYZ=asd`, but `myapp --foo=bar` would log only `foo=bar`

If two applications are setting FOO, then it results in undesired behaviour:
1. myapp1 runs, FOO=bar
2. myapp2 runs, FOO=xyz
3. myapp1 tries to use FOO, gets xyz

Instead
1. myapp1 --foo=bar runs
2. myapp2 --foo=xyz runs
3. myapp uses foo, gets bar

I would say the difference between West Country, Home Counties, North East and Glasgow is significantly higher than the difference between most US States. Although that's presumably because we have had thousands of years to develop dialects and the US didn't have very long until TV, radio, telephone started mashing dialects from regions together.

I can tell the difference between New England and Florida but it isn't quite in the same league.
I've worked professionally in both Vue 2 and React. Even with class components and prop decorators you still have the annoying Vue template DSL where you don't get any TS support.

In comparison JSX will be checked by typescript, so in that regard JSX (and therefore React) is superior.
Dunno if there is such a thing as "how British people talk".

Something that's struck me about the country is how much the way you talk reflects where you are from and your station in life. Like not just which region, there's frequently dialects/sociolects for different parts of a city.
There was a trademark issue with another company I think.

Only the unwashed or criminal element will ever use rhyming slang - the whole point of its existence is obfuscation from police eavesdropping. I'll have you know, dear sir, that no respected member of the middle or upper classes should ever be found employing such bastardised lingo. The glorious Empire has no use for such trickery.
Brits will say that they don't but if you are coming form a more direct culture you definitely notice the added layer of politeness to everything. There are a lot of other native speakers in the UK, for example from Australia or the USA, and you can instantly tell if this person is from the UK or Australia and it's not only the accent that gives away.

Maybe you've heard that the western attitude of smiling for no good reason is strange for Eastern Europeans but this is not like that and you can actually quickly internalise the general politeness of daily interactions. I like it a lot but sometimes can come up as unauthentic, you feel the authenticity when they start using sarcasm.

> I think any anti hate speech laws are more experimental than the American experiment

The modern American jurisprudence on speech is fairly recent, as I alluded to above. There's tons of cases through the 18th and 19th century where the supreme court upheld blasphemy and obscenity convictions, allowed the federal government to censor speech, favor Christian religion and churches over others, and even consider libel a Crime.

As late as 1951 (Dennis v. US) the Supreme Court ruled that members of the US Communist Party could be imprisoned because socialist organizing was a threat. And it took 20 more years for Brandenburg to cement the modern jurisprudence, 200 years after the American experiment began, and only 50 years ago.

> No, it's an argument for studying the history of law and understanding that some are good and some are bad.

No, my point is what is socially acceptable goes beyond simply what is legal. And this is always and has always been true. Many laws can be used for tyranny. If you want to avoid the potential for tyrannical laws, you can't have any laws, and that doesn't work either.

Like again, this whole thing comes down to the fact that Western European countries (and the US!) have had more restrictive definitions of free speech for far longer than Brandenburg has been the law of the land, and they aren't tyrannical.
I'd say vendor lock-ins and mobile killed P2P.

With people replacing more and more laptop and desktop usage the platforms are Android and iOS. On both of these you essentially have to pay to release software, on top of that people more frequently have to pay for traffic, which oftentimes is in some for of ISP NAT, which might mean no or only certain incoming connections.

I think these platforms are the biggest inhibitor for P2P and actually also new technologies, because they are extremely constrained in what you can do compared to a typical desktop OS/environment.
No, it's a joke.

Not the actual death of the magazine, just someone getting upset about lack of depth in an article. Specifically:

> "No, scientists haven’t created a wormhole using a quantum computer. They haven’t even simulated one. They simulated some aspects of wormhole dynamics under the crucial assumption that the holographic correspondence of the Sachdev–Ye–Kitaev model holds."

Quanta publishes great, detailed articles - but it's ultimately a general readership magazine, not an academic journal. I seriously doubt that many of it's readers have sufficiently deep knowledge of QC to properly understand the Sachdev–Ye–Kitaev model. Whatever that is.

Edit: Just to be clear, I'm not disputing that the Quanta article is factually deficient - although I don't have the relevant specialist knowledge to understand why. I am disputing that this marks the "death" of the magazine.
I’m curious why you think RP sounds stupid.
>I will inhabit a world indistinguishable from that of a paranoid schizophrenic.

My wife has schizophrenia, which is well under control with medication.
But about every year or two, when she wakes me up in the night to tell me she's panicking because someone hacked her smartphone and laptop etc., I know we have to adjust her medication for a few weeks.
It was scary at first, but now we know the drill: a night or two without much sleep, no big problem.
Of course I check smartphone, laptop etc.
You never can be sure, can't you?
Especially not if you've already been in trouble with credit card fraud twice.

I once asked her psychiatrist what he would say to his patients who believe they are being monitored in these times of Snowden and Co.
He said it didn't make his job easier, but he would calm them down and adjust the medication.
After all, he knew that his patients were sick.

So what do you think they or their owners/masters will do when All is Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace in our/their future/reality?
It's funny; I often see it the opposite way. Passing components as props enables inversion of control and usually helps split responsibilities up more easily and generally avoids prop drilling or super components that do everything.
Thx! Full marks to the folks at Tensegritics for ClojureDart.

As for migration, Mr. Hickey made a small language, and that made CLJS and CLJD possible. Nice! Now they just have to bring CLJD under the CLJC umbrella...but I suspect that would be a stretch.
Also setcookie() and $_COOKIE need to be renamed to setbiscuit() and £_BISCUIT.
Looked at it a few years ago, the gate stuff was meh, bought a good old projector off ebay, added a 95 CRI led instead of the bulb and replaced the motor with a stepper to accurately control film advance and used a modified canon with magic lantern firmware to do the capture with silent shutter to not kill the camera or use beyond video resolution (which is overkill, i know, but I wanted both hdr and wdr so multi shots). Fun little project if you have the image processing knowledge. Else, the lazy best bang for the buck deal is getting a wolverine film digitizer, too bad the firmware isn’t open tho.
Honestly, I've seen this thing multiple times over the last ten years and it's stupid.

My experience is that ios feels a lot like Niagara if you use the app library. Applications are pretty much the same. Notifications are marginally more annoying on ios but only marginally. I miss some intents, Firefox and Android clients are better on Android. The Apple watch is a lot better than the Android offering however.

All things considered, it wasn't much of a change. Ios and Android are not particularly different.
Tbh I have not. I was afraid of being slower to type or making more mistakes. But I think at least it is worth to try. Thank you.

So it's ok for it to be one companies choice but not another company? As a consumer it's not a meaningful choice if I have to use their platform, and I'd rather have the situation where the platform holder enforces consistency - they're not perfect but I know that having a Google account with Google Pay is enough to get me into 98+% of applications on android, and I'm not worried about having to _phone_ someone to cancel a subscription (looking at you NY times)

> I think you should stop ignoring the parts you don't accept, you're coming across as dishonest.

What parts?

> Specifically with the irony that while you decry "trust us," it is precisely what is required to accept your "moving of the needle a little bit."

Not at all because, I have not argued for any particular movement. What I'm asking for is a argument that the status quo is optimal that is more robust than "trust us the alternatives would be worse", especially when there are fairly good examples of the needle being in other places in other nations and it being, generally speaking, fine.
I would argue the answer is twofold. Make it easy to do the right thing and make it very expensive to not do the right thing. Just making it very expensive doesn't work and will feel unjust when you get fined.

Maybe his intellect was due to a mutation that he didn't pass on...
I think about it in terms of pro- and anti-social speech. Free speech is about pro-social speech, not anti-social. The way I see it, people conflate the two types of speech.

Citizens arguing about ugly topics like identity politics, conspiracies, coverups, etc. are de-facto pro-social - they are trying to sway public opinion on political issues, ostensibly to make their society better. It becomes anti-social when those arguments are being pushed by outside parties (Russian/Chinese/corpo propaganda) or grifters.

Pro-social speech can also become anti-social when people get too heated and start attacking others based on their beliefs. It's difficult to deal with speech that is both pro- and anti-social, in terms of trying to convey a sincere argument while also being toxic to those who don't agree. In cases like that, "rules of engagement" or a code of conduct should be implemented.

Anti-social speech is to say things without the goal of construction/progress, but instead with the goal of destruction or abuse. Spam and porn are anti-social in certain contexts and are treated as such, the same way drug use and swearing is (or maybe used to be).

Assuming you believe in the thesis that free speech prevents social collapse and totalitarianism, then it doesn't matter whether you disagree with or even hate certain arguments/views, if they are sincere then they are pro-social and should be given some platform to be heard and interacted with in the mainstream.
Did you manage to figure out where does the difference in memory consumption come from? Do you attribute it only to JVM or have you designed low-memory footprint data structures in memgraph?
I think it's sad that Apple doesn't even give attribution to any of the authors. If you copy the Bibtex from this site, the Author field is just empty. Their names are also not mentioned anywhere on this site.

This site is purely a marketing effort.
Bootcamp “grads”? I mean really? Folks, this is a scam.
As the author mentions, convolutions for signal processing and convolutions for probability are essentially equivalent things in two different contexts. It is interesting that the same concept is behind the multiplication of polynomials. In the discrete case we have the parallel of the vectors representing ...

the (discretized) probability density <-> the (discrete) signal intensity <-> the coefficients of the polynomial

... in the respective context.

If we look at the discrete case, since the operation of convolution is computationally expensive (O(n^3)), people often rely on the Fast Fourier Transform Algorithm (FFT), that runs in O(n log(n)). An excellent and very enjoyable video on the FFT applied to the polynomial multiplication is https://youtu.be/h7apO7q16V0?t=1.

> hate speech being free speech is an American thing

It's the constitution, innit? It's a confusing document, with many compromises. But many US citizens treat it like the Shroud of Turin. The German laws are tied up with Germany's history in the 20th C. In other parts of Western Europe, restrictions are less stringent and less specific.

Obviously there are types of "harmless" speech that are likely to provoke a violent response. Personal abuse is an example, but so is the language of the likes of Enoch Powell's "rivers of blood" speech. Do people really think that speech that's likely to cause public disorder is OK?

I like the author's distinction between "cultural" and "legal" freedom of speech. I instinctively dislike restrictions on speech; but provided they are used mainly to nudge people into treating their fellow citiziens with respect (and with an explicit exception for satire), I see them as an overall good. That is, you can use legal restrictions, with a light touch, to encourage an atmosphere of cultural restraint.

Arresting that guy who protested Charles III's accession by holding up a blank sheet of paper: that's not a good thing.

I'll be honest. I found it very hard to read beyond this line. I powered through though.

No it doesn't. In fact the article is about how they didn't directly violate the TOS but were subject to a targeted harassment campaign. You obviously have no evidence to support your claims and this is just a weak attempt at trolling.

Can't believe I didn't think of this - but this is a great idea :)
Dart is at least adding new features relatively quickly (just recently they started working on immutable record data structures with pattern matching, which even TypeScript doesn't have yet) and soon they'll have static metaprogramming meaning you can have Lisp like macros to create your own syntax, including algebraic data types as in any functional language. That is really what people are looking forward to.

Another thing is Dart is JITed, AOT compiled as well as compiling to JS and WASM. Very few languages can do all 4. JVM ones can't, so no Kotlin (we'll see how well Kotlin Native works), and V8 isn't AOT so no JS or TS either. Only alternative I can think of is Lua.
I'm sad to say I used to really like Quanta magazine pieces but I've become adept at knowing immediately from a Hacker News discussion title (the direct links, not this one) that it's about a Quanta piece, and it's going to be a letdown when you drill in.

I'm not sure if they've become more clickbaity or less discriminating, or if it's just me moving on. I'm guessing from the article - however ranty - it's not my imagination.
