That's wild. I had a similar issue asking to to translate to and from binary representations of characters. It would occasionally do fine. Most of the time it would add in a reference to "Charles".

It's bizzare.
What do you do when those 'low quality' users are sending rape threats to specific users? Or stalking them in this scenario? The police aren't going to do anything because it's barely an actionable threat and hard to trace.

The entire reason shadowbans exist and have existed for decades is because there's an inherently unsolvable problem with certain users that extremely fixate on certain users or communities. If you think they can be treated by being civil then I don't think you've been a moderator for any extensive period.
That’s kinda your own fault. You could have known they were going to be able to star repos on your behalf if you’d read carefully.

What is strange is that you are banned for an action someone else took. That doesn’t make any sense.

It is a pain, but languages are software products as well, so they either get new features to keep going on each new release or they wither and fade away.

Eventually some do still die of complexity, replaced by simpler languages, and the cycle reboots, see PL/I, Algol 60/68, ...

> Neither Google nor Apple profits from their password management solutions.

Not directly, no. But they absolutely do profit from the fact that it's becoming increasingly difficult to lead a normal life without owning an Android or iOS device. And every development like this, where another layer of complexity is introduced with the mobile vendors leading the way, ultimately serves that goal.

It's pretty much universally understood that building a browser engine from scratch is already no longer possible. Once Mozilla gives up, it's over. The systems that govern our lives will then be completely controlled by two or three corporate entities. Every new "web standard" makes Gecko more expensive to maintain. At some point, it will become too expensive.

Many people don't seem to understand this, including in this very thread. It doesn't matter that it's an open standard. The "standard creep" alone will eventually wipe out anyone who doesn't have a development budget that's measured in the billions of dollars.
If you believe that the point of the lawsuit is that CVS had an obligation to donate money that didn't come from their customers... then all your comments about illegal tax deductions are nonsense. You have no idea what you're talking about.

I keep asking you to describe what you think is wrong, because you have no idea what you're talking about. And you keep refusing, presumably because you're not able to give such a description.

But I'll try a completely different line of attack: an illegal tax deduction would be fraud, and the victim would be the IRS. It isn't possible, under the American legal system, for civilians to sue over an offense of that kind.

But this is a lawsuit by a civilian seeking to become a class representative. He alleges that CVS has committed fraud against its customers. As he must, since it isn't possible for him to sue CVS for tax fraud.

No one on any side has alleged any problem with CVS's taxes. Why do you believe there's a problem with them?
Because it isn't part of the language official semantics, and is compiler specific.
I think they think that Google/Apple/Microsoft are deliberately creating dense standards so that nobody else has the technical means to implement them. The evidence presented was that one of these (U2F?) took a long time for Firefox to implement.

What’s wrong with Hot Reload? Didn’t they walk back the Visual Studio only bit?
True, there’s often a “GitHub will have access to your email address” type confirmation in SSO flows, as that’s basically what SSO is (it’s GH telling a 3rd party “yup this is bob@example.com, feel free to log them into your site as bob@example.com”).

However, what you won’t see in a standard SSO flow is anything along the lines of “GitHub will be able to star repositories on your behalf.” If you’re seeing those kind of messages, you aren’t doing a minimal SSO flow (just having GH vouch for your identity), you’re granting access to a 3rd party to do things with your GH account.
I have a client application running since 2015 used by his team. It is not a big company but there is a lot of business rules, controls and logics : the client's domain is in a very ruled business in France (end consumer laws, finance, etc)

I find it impossible to visualize 4-D objects in my head. On paper the best you can do I think is show the projection of a 4-D object onto 3-D space which is then projected onto the flat 2-D surface. But I still can't visualize how a 4-D object would "look" because it seems our brains are hardwired to comprehend "objects" as 3-dimensional beings.
Google is already working on LaMDA and Imagen for conversational search experiences, which is why these projects also wax poetic about "AI safety" -- you don't want to synthesize a politically incorrect or socially unacceptable response to a question asked.

Apart from the copyright issues that parent mentions, there's also the issue of LLM spewing BS confidently, which is why Google has been hesitant to roll it out as their default.

There are a lot of roads in LA that are gated or just dead end. [1,2,3] They drive me insane. It effectively makes a gated community and I doubt the property tax revenue covers the tax dollars that go into these neighborhoods. Roads are a public good and they should be usable by the public. I am fine with the alternative where we privatize them and let the cost of ownership and maintenance fall on the residents, once they're footing the entire bill they can choose who drives on the roads.

The sarcasm will continue until the NIMBYs improve.

if i go with your argument, "what wrong did i commit" if i allowed an application a legitimate action of managing stars? how did i know beforehand the app was going to abuse this very action because there are other commenters saying that stars manage action is a legitimate, non-sinister action in itself so where was i sloppy?
As I said, it’s a lesson to read more carefully. If you’re granting a sketchy website broad access to your accounts without even reading what you’re granting, bad things are guaranteed to happen.

Also, seems like you’re probably a developer? If so, SSO, OAuth2, OIDC, etc. are worth learning about. You seem to be confusing/conflating SSO and OAuth2 authorization code flows, when they’re reasonably different things.

The possibility that a LLM could trigger a copyright violation strengthens the narrative that Google is harming smaller business, and thus can easily be used as a data point in an antitrust lawsuit.

I don't know if my location (Denmark) has something to say about that?

That being said, the estimates that waze give me, especially for sudden accidents, are way off. I'm told it's better in the Copenhagen area, due to more users on the road, but where I live, it's almost non-existant.
There is no way to create a regular account on Travis. It's only sign in with GitHub and a few others that they added recently.

https://app.travis-ci.com/signin

I understand why they are doing it, because they have to pull from GitHub, but it's not the only way. They could create a regular user on GitHub and ask people to let that user pull from their repositories. Obviously it's more trouble for the user, it would harm adoption and growth, that user could be banned and halt all of Travis.

Travis is the only site I have ever used in that way, because I have a customer that uses it. With hindsight I think that I should create a per customer account on GitHub, just in case something bad happens to Travis.
The house is a stick framing atop a perimeter foundation, with few posts making a crawl space. You can almost sit down. It took a week to install loops of 1/2 (16mm) PEX between the joists supporting the floor. The pipes go through holes in the joist and blocking, and cross at the beginning of every bay to make up every loop. The PEX is held up by aluminum heat plates that are simply stapled. Theost annoying part of the job was to cut all protiding nails. The took few days prior the piping. There is something like 400m of pipes. Split into multiple circuits. Aligned at room boundaries and adjusted to have similar length for homogenous pressure drop. All of that is an open loop with the water heater. A pump, a thermostat and few check valves supply the manifold that distribute the hot water under the floor.

Nah, this use case is why Niklaus Wirth created P-Code for Pascal, and how UCSD created a full Pascal based OS that had P-Code based binaries, and some models even had a primitive JIT/AOT compiler for it.

WASM is just another reboot of bytecode based binaries that keeps poping up in multiple ways since at least 1961, when Burroughs Large Systems got released.
Big farms feed (fed?) chickens arsenic, so heads up.
for anyone wondering, the following is the exact text of the first response to my claim i got from github,

"Your account has restrictions imposed because it appears to have been used for the purpose of artificially inflating the popularity of GitHub accounts or repositories.".

so i ask again, if "manage stars" is a legitimate action that is not a problematic one in itself, how would i know, beforehand that going in to "sign in with github", that i would be giving the app stars access and that they were going to use to artificially inflate popularity of their repo? and that was a banable offense?
TLDR: your size is not size
FWIW, I agree GH shouldn’t have banned OP. But … I’m pretty sure they weren’t giving out access to control OP’s account through a standard SSO flow, as OP assumed. Massively more likely, OP just didn’t pay attention, and granted said access explicitly during an OAuth2 authorization code flow.

No disagree but also.. this is nitpicking. Everyone reading the flow knows what was meant here: change was effected by a significant minority of shareholders exerting influence. You would not be wrong saying colloquially "they were made to" or "had to" even though legally no force exists. Well clearly to a nitpicker you would be wrong, but half the room is now rolling their eyes.

Don't be that kid.
Because people can see that their message that used to get x retweets and likes, is now only getting y which is far less. It is very common to see people complain about being shadow banned on twitter, and not knowing for what, or why.

Virtualbox is nearly unusable for windows 9x nowadays. The system boots kinda sometimes, but applications or windows explorer usually crash with some memory protection or illegal instruction fault within a minute or so. This has been the case for years, so I guess nobody wants to track down and fix the bug.
> Slightly off topic, but I get a lot of frustration from Google Maps. Waze works well for me, while GMaps don't. So seeing those two merge more is bad news for me.

I have the same, but my friend from the UK has the opposite. Does it depend on the country ? Where I live, when I use Google maps, it sends me into fields on roads that are gone already for ages while Waze works perfectly... Google maps sends me to places I cannot get out of or continue (so narrow that I cannot continue or turn and have to drive backwards to get out) etc.
The problem is GitHub's permission system is bad. I'm not sure if the problem is that legitimate apps are required to request way more permissions than they want to get the ones they need, or if the prompts themselves are basically crying wolf all the time ("act on my behalf"? That could mean literally anything, why are you showing me that at the bottom of a list of other permissions? Doesn't it imply all the rest?).

So the only way to use them is to either deny most legitimate apps because of scary permissions, or learn to click past the prompts to get your work done. If people do the latter due to a bad system then GitHub is not blameless here. They need to fix their system.
Right, so if the actual security is coming from the 2FA key and the password part is untrusted, then again why bother with the password?

Also, does passkey necessarily mean you don’t control the private keys?

A specific implementation like Google Password Manager may not give you access to those keys, but others like 1Password or KeePass should.
Fun read above - very descriptive and interesting... thanks for sharing!

OWL? RDF? Were you an RPI graduate perhaps? (I wasn't but did visit them once as part of research project).

At the end of the day, triple stores (or quad stores with providence) never quite worked as well as simple property graphs (at least for the problems I was solving). I was never really looking for inference, more like extracting specific sub-graphs, or "colored" graphs, so property attribution was much simpler. Ended up fitting it into a simple relational and performance was quite good; even better than the "best" NoSQL solutions out there at the time.

And, triple stores just seem to require SO MANY relations! RDF vs Property Graphs feels like XML vs JSON. They both can get the job done, but one just feels "easier" than the other.
Fact that PHP was built-in on virtually every Linux distribution and hosting was dirt cheap since one server could easily host hundreds of customers helped too I guess.

A court may well consider that becoming a wholly owned subsidiary would violate a license, despite being a distinct legal entity[1][2]. Especially when it's just an implied license with no actual agreed definition on both sides.

Yes someone published a story in the Wall Street Journal, but this thread is talking about Twitter. Twitter is not exonerated because some other outlet did something differently.

The point here is that they were specifically responding to government requests to censor information. That is truly government overreach, but in the opposite direction to what you claim.

This bit, at least, is more or less the case. Even if you spend some fuel to alter your orbit and throw people off for a bit, you can't do anything major over the course of a few hours without sci-fi engines.
Wish there was one for the US too.
Certain types of inference (mathematical, genealogical) seem to be difficult for it, but other kinds work remarkably well. I have been playing with narrative inferences to interesting effect. Ask it to tell e.g. Cinderella from the perspective of the prince or Moby Dick from the perspective of the whale and it will leave out (correctly) the events that these characters do not witness in the story. It also seems to have some ability to "reason" about the motivations of characters. One is tempted to speculate that it has some form of theory of mind.

> who argued that Covid lockdowns would harm children.

Using science or using propaganda? The issue, as I'm trying to make as abundantly clear as possible, is that we still don't know what the offending tweet says. Therefore we cannot actually conclude if the down weighting was appropriate or not. If he said "I have a paper which shows that under lockdown children are performing worse on tests" then I'd be upset. But if he said "The lockdown is harming our children and turning them into literal Nazis" then yeah, I do want that taken down. I'm just unwilling to speculate as to what the tweet actually said. You're putting at lot of trust in The Free Press[0], a new (self admitted) press organization that has little history[1]. In an age of misinformation we have to be constantly asking ourselves "do I believe this information because it is accurate or because it fits my preconceived notions (priors)?" Be critical of these people too. If what they are saying is true, then fair critique, as I've laid out, will roll off of them and truth will be on their side. If they aren't saying what is true, then do we also not have a duty to speak up when we find flaws in their arguments? If you want a free and fair media, we have to be able to criticize and evaluate our internal biases.

Looking these individual people up, we do find a specific political bias and not a uniform one like their website claims.
