Musk has a long track record of lying about his intentions and his products prospects. It appears he plays the part of an authentic well intentioned engineer whose principles and good sense override his politeness, well enough to fool a huge number of people.

> This is just about people who basically stop using Twitter and post a link to follow their profile on a different social media site instead, not about posting links in general.

If that’s what they meant, they’d say that. The actual language is clear and far more expansive because that’s not their intent.

Put another way, the richest man in the world can hire his own PR team. Why are you giving away your credibility pro bono?
> Don’t forget people also died much earlier for thousands of years.

Funnily enough not from obesity or heart disease.

They died from violence, starvation, infections, plagues, travel, etc.

Fats were not a cause.
I’m getting trolled, that was well done haha
> And as the parent comment said, it's complicated and brittle, while offering little benefit.

Back in the day, lots of things were complicated and brittle regarding having an internet presence.

If that were the standard for IT in general and networking in particular, we wouldn’t deploy a great many things.

That being said, it’s pretty easy these days to deploy DNSSEC; so is cryptographically verifying the chain of trust between your domain and the root.
For a while now I've been saying Helion is the least dubious of all the fusion efforts. Their approach cleverly avoids or strongly ameliorates some of the serious engineering/economic issues that face the DT approaches.
Interestingly, I am told Helion looked at using their scheme for DT fusion and concluded it would be more expensive than going to advanced fuels, since it would require heat -> electricity conversion in turbines and rotating generators.

Will this still be too expensive to compete with renewables? Quite possibly, but I think it's more than attractive enough to spend the money to find out.

I'm glad Helion seems to have broken into that exponentially increasing mindshare hype phase. It's going to be interesting waiting for Polaris to come online in 2024. It's also going to be interesting see the effect on other fusion efforts. I suspect this is good news for the other FRC competitors (TAE, Princeton Fusion Systems). Possibly it will not be good news for the more staid traditional approaches, like those using tokamaks.
That's definitely something we are addressing! Would you like to sign up for the beta? Will love getting your feedback and helping you remediate this pain

I mean I don’t think Musks critics are asking for the government to intervene here (well, other than those pointing out it might violates EU regs).

I was pretty cynical about his purchase and Im not terribly happy about being proven right. My hope is that he gets bored with it, sells it, and it gets a boring new owner that’s less ideological.

> downvoted comments no longer light gray text and hard to read

I don’t understand the reasoning behind this design decision. There’s often long comments threads starting from a downvoted comment and it’s super difficult for me to read it.
I know where it lies on the compression spectrum, I'm asking what use case prefers it.
I suspect this would factor heavily into any such concern-

"Additionally, we allow paid advertisement/promotion for any of the prohibited social media platforms."
I find it hard to discuss this without being sarcastic or flippant because it’s so utterly, laughably boneheaded.
I’ve definitely linked to my profiles on other sites before and never been banned or even warned.
Or maybe it processes the video with its own backend ? How do you tell
Title should be: “Why fusion will never happen in a market-based context”. If fusion plants can be shown to be carbon negative (i.e., can be used to draw carbon out of the atmosphere by powering mineralization, etc.), we will absolutely try to build them at some point, regardless of the cost. Expecting markets financed by bankers to build them is ridiculous. The assumption is that markets factor in all costs, which they don’t and likely never will. This is the problem with markets, they are fundamentally dumb, or at least naïve and blinkered; they don’t know that there are things they don’t know. This is why we can’t solve the climate crisis through market-based systems alone.
Yes they are and they explicitly say as much:

> we will remove any free promotion of prohibited 3rd-party social media platforms, such as linking out (i.e. using URLs) to any of the below platforms on Twitter

Your quote is referring to cross-posting from other sites to Twitter, not linking.
Welcome to Clown World
It's not reasonable for someone claiming free speech absolutism & unbiased moderation. You do make a good point by pointing out Musk could have just built his own social media platform instead of crying about the moderation and blowing $44B on Twitter, only to fail to make good on his promise of free speech.
I don't think you're understanding correctly. It doesn't even allow link aggregators such as link tree, on posts or bios.
Not having enough hot air on the feet is a common issue across cars in general, from my experience.

I had the same thought recently, this reminds me of old-school forums where the single admin would just make ridiculous arbitrary rules based on specific random things that bothered them. “No more posts about doughnuts ever, after what pwnyb0y86 did last week”, “if you post a question that has been asked in the last 24 hours you get a 3 day ban” etc etc.
Not agreeing with the policy, but is there any reason TikTok is omitted?
It's not that anything in the verification protocol needs to be human-readable, it's that domain names themselves need to be human-readable and therefore can't just be derived from public keys. Which means you have to have some kind of system for deciding who controls which names, that doesn't just come down to who possesses a particular key. Zooko conjectured that this couldn't be done in a way that was both decentralized and cryptographically secure. He turned out to be wrong about that, although the DNS that everyone actually uses remains centralized.
Yes but you can learn those parts just about trivially.
Broadly speaking, it would be trademark infringement if it is used in a way that may confuse others about the source of the product. It doesn’t necessarily have to be a specific product that Alphabet has a direct competitor for.
It's not clear to me what will constitute promotion vs cross-linking. I'd avoid any links for now until Twitter's enforcement rules become clear.
Imagine you had 2 transceivers you wanted to bridge - if the transceiver dropped all unicast MACs but its own indiscriminately then it would not function properly. There is also a litany of other features that would not want this kind of offload always running (general MAC spoofing, packet capturing for debug/troubleshooting purposes, VMs, some IP redundancy protocols that keep the virtual IP's MAC consistent after failover, and the like).

Offloads such as this or other more advanced ones are implemented as optional hardware features (if at all) controlled by upstream signaling. This is usually a driver signaling things over a PCIe bus on modern systems but it can be anything including just "upstream logic gates". That way if it's a normal client-only PC not running e.g. Wireshark or VMs the CPU doesn't have to be interrupted for the types of traffic you mention but the other use cases can still work too.
The energy app is pretty good, it fits pretty well with my double policy but I don't look at it anymore, since it requires diverting my attention moreso than glancing ant the estimate, and additional tapping to bring it up.

As a rule of thumb I halve the EPA estimate in winter and 2/3-3/4 it in summer.

I have had no range issues doing this for the 130000km + I have owned the vehicle.

Edit: If I'm going to tap, I check the Wh/km, as that is what I'm used to. It was better before they removed it from the swipe, but hey, we gotta fill those sprints somehow.

Not sure why this is getting downvoted. I upvoted it because I'm not sure people understand the complexity of internal operations and all of the uses of certs and opportunities for things to go wrong. But 20 years? Geesh. Couldn't you have just advocated for staggered expirations?
It’s voluntary now, but this is something meant to establish a precedent. The mindset that produced this initiative actively wants this to become the new standard.

Those that think the language needs to be changed in order to prevent harm are not going to be content with these suggestions merely being optional. Activists will push for this to become a new criterion for proper writing, probably on the same level as style guides.
Twitter bans linking to alternative social media platforms
> Pure speculation, but maybe this was exactly what he wanted. He originally didn't want to buy Twitter after changing his mind, he was forced to. Maybe this is in a sense his retribution for what he perceived originally as the "botting problem" or whatever else he dislikes about Twitter, by burning the thing he was forced to take ownership of to the ground.
Many people say social media is unhealthy. Is Elon trying to say with the capital he wields that everyone is better off without it? (Even though I think this is a terrible way of doing it, as it places his other companies as collateral.)

This is incredible amount of mental gymnastics to rationalize his behaviour. There is no "4D chess", he is demonstrably a petulant and vindictive bully. Read about how he treated his ex-wife, or employees and journalists who were even mildly critical of him.
I like the downvotes here for stating a fact.

The current CA system is horrendous in its centralization. It is completely possible to make a new mechanism using hashed-addresses and using traffic + user choice as the allocation mechanism for namespaces.

Instead of namespaces being fought for financially, users assign namespaces to site addresses (hashes) which represent a pub key of a keypair and identity of a server. The namespaces, say “search” is then assigned to the address hash with the most users by default. If a user likes a different one, they link the “search” namespace to a different hash and that counts as a vote for that location being the default.

This can be done using just traffic as an indicator for the defaults, in the event unique humanness cannot be established properly for an identity.

One summary of a frictionless scheme without central control that circumvents just about every shortcoming of the current system, and has all three properties.

There are other schemes, btw.

Also, in the event it isn’t clear: tls comes natively to this scheme because the addresses are pub keys. There can’t be a mitm for this scheme unless they have the priv key, or find a way to direct traffic through them and acquire a majority stake for a namespace and phish the original site. Whoever has the priv key controls the properties of the address hash, which is where all the records go.

This would make the internet significantly more democratic and less prone to bad actors. It would eliminate domain name squatting completely, and would enable new technologies which more closely match a namespace than old ones to have a chance, promoting innovation and meaningful competition.
Check out Lex Fridman and John Carmack interview. Also read Masters of Doom. I think the key with Carmack is that he's a workaholic, and he expects the same from the ones around him.

Yeah. Read the macrumors forums after the announcement of the first iPhone. Actual Apple fan(atic)s were ridiculing it about how "this is just shit", "never going to replace a computer", "can't even multitask" etc.
Toot! on iOS is great.
I know we want to believe it was somehow a blame or fault of someone who develops cancer. The reality is I've seen unhealthy people never get cancer and healthy people, children even, who get cancer.

I used one of those web services to delete all of my old tweets, and my profile is empty now except for pointers to my Mastodon instance. I’m curious whether my account will be suspended per that policy.

Either way, I’m deleting my account at the end of the year. I loved Twitter years ago, but there’s nothing there for me anymore.
It's because Musk is commonly defended, and borderline worshiped across most of HN. The downfall of twitter is the perfect opportunity for a wake-up call. And that's why this type of comment is more and more visible.
If you think the referendum was an unforced error, I’m not sure you realise the factors that led to it. Grifting writ large for all the players, including Cameron and Osborne, but especially Rees-Mogg who was forcing the hand somewhat.

I don’t think they’re any more or less money oriented than others or any more or less hapless.

Even Johnson was about the wealth, the Churchill allusions were a sideshow.
The content warning is reasonable and it works: because I ain’t reading that crap. I have standards. I prefer to avoid being angry with fools, today.

Yep. Put more people on a pedestal and watch them harm society.
Around 1978, my dad brought me a blue book: 'introduction to BASIC' from Digital Equipment Corporation. He then _typed my programs_ for me into a DEC-20 at his office, and brought me the output to debug. Batch style programming with an interactive language! The other book that was instrumental in my downfall was 101 Basic Games, also published by DEC.

Later, in high school, we had a PDP-8 with DEC EDUsystem BASIC on it, later replaced with a small PDP-11. This was right around the time that Apple ][ and TRS-80 were just appearing on the scene. Until then, programs were entered on printing terminals like Teletypes, GE Terminet, and DECwriter II.

This is not that long ago, in a relative sense.
My last tweet, October 31st 2020, has links to sign up on my mailing list or to follow me on my own mastodon instance. Twitter's censorship was bad then; it's worse now. Opt out of it.

Plenty of people have posted their Instagram profile links in their Twitter bios over the years and never got suspended or locked for it. I've posted tweets with links to my Instagram profile several times and never got even a warning. This is all new Musk policy.
Unity muddied the waters by naming a component in DOTS "ECS", but I'm referring to the pattern, not that package, and the fact that you need to include Systems to have ECS is debatable: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entity_component_system#Is_%22...?

Even if you want to reduce it to "Entity-Component" the point is that the architecture they provide via Monobehaviors is ergonomic

It creates a very workable mental model for assembling complex game entities without relying on inheritance, and it provides reasonable tools to orchestrate them without introducing hard dependencies
It is sickening seeing how far Twitter has fallen.

Be sure to get an archive of your Twitter data while you still can. https://twitter.com/settings/download_your_data

Also if you are on Mastodon the tools to follow your Twitter followers are probably still working but may not very much longer. My favorite of the bunch is https://www.movetodon.org/
The thing that kind of amazed me is the interviews with seemingly normal people who were victims of this scam. A common thing they said was "well I assumed this was legit because it's Logan Paul behind it. I trust him." It's hard for me to fully understand the naivete inherent in falling for someone like Logan's act and thinking he's somehow trustworthy.
There are no real structural constraints to capitalism that I'm aware of.

Instagram prohibits links, period, not just to other platforms. This is where "link in bio" comes from.

They hate the web.
I am glad there's someone out there who agrees! I couldn't convince my friends to bother with it - the filters make static screenshots look a bit weird and internet video is often a bit compressed to truly appreciate the look :)

No one outside of tech nerds or PR departments is going to get seriously into Mastodon. My wife and her lib/moderate friends checked it out and went right back to Twitter. Too confusing, one husband was banned from one instance and caused issues getting onto others, hard to understand why.
Maybe they meant trillions? The 10,000 times faster number seems correct though, as fiber optic carries light at ~200-300 THz and 10 GHz is the electronic standard at present.
Yes, yes, and yes.

However the speed of air over the car while driving is unrelated to the airspeed that meteorologists use to calculate the wind chill in your local weather report

There is no money is promoting free speech or at least not the kind of money Twitter needs to pay back it's investors and creditors. There have been multiple poor business decisions since the buyout. The "burn it the ground and start over mentality" is effectively placing the company in a startup position. Given the risk of startups it would have likely been cheaper/smarter to start a new company than pursue a leveraged buyout. Any value Twitter had is rapidly deteriorating. The capital put into the purchase would have been better spent just starting a new company.

Seriously these are things that cause projects like crypto and nft's to get any ground, no one does the research, everyone waits for someone else to tell them what the point is, how it works, why its valuable or not.
Honestly, this. I wasn't expecting much but was hoping that at least Elon has some unorthodox idea to try. What he promised wasn't supposed to work, but no matter who he is and what he believes in, I had to give him some respect - dude had actually put his money (lawsuit or not) where his mouth was, and that's a commendable thing.

Except that... I really don't like roasting people - that's just faux pas, so I'll rather say that what he does makes no sense to me, and I fail to see the correspondence between Elon's past statements and current actions. Which makes me disappointed.

> We still allow cross-posting content from any social media platform. Posting links or usernames to social media platforms not listed above are also not in violation of this policy.
I don’t see how this is a legal problem for Twitter, at least in the U.S. They are not a dominant force on the Web or even in social media; they have little market power. And any data that shows lots of people leaving for other social media platforms would actually help prove that competition is strong (ironically).

Free speech cuts both ways. It’s legal for Twitter to block links to Mastodon for the same reason it was legal for them to block the sitting U.S. President from posting.
> They're only useful as a relatively subjective measure for people who aren't dressed properly.

That's a bizarre thing to say when to dress properly, you need to know the wind chill.

If it's 25°F out no wind, vs. 25°F out but it's 5°F with wind chill, that's an entire additional layer I need to put on during my morning walk.

Wind chill is a very accurate measure for judging what to wear. How do you think it's not accurate? It's literally an equation that accounts for the fact that wind makes you colder. You can scientifically, objectively measure the faster cooling effect of wind on an object. (Granted there are marginal differences in its effect on a human body depending on one's height and weight, but that still doesn't make it subjective.)
So let’s get rid of the word “black”, as it means scorched (blakeren). Very harmful.
I tried really hard to stay an Elon fan.

SpaceX is a step function game changer, and Starlink was such a cool related market to break into.

Now I have to go change my Twitter profiles that have been the same for ages... Has Musk never heard of the Streisand effect?

I've always been bearish on TSLA. Now I think the narrative is changing. The market monopoly bull case never made sense. Every car company and nation will be pumping out EVs soon. I think the true value is half of Toyota's market cap, and I'll be buying puts on Monday.
Are humans no longer capable of recognizing context? How is "he mastered the material in the lecture" invoking centuries of internalized slavery and causing harm in the process?
> There's another thing that really split the community, many want automatic security updates to Drupal core, but the Drupal core devs have taken a hard stance against this.

That might have been true at some point, but certainly is not the case anymore. In fact, automatic updates is a "strategic initiative" for Drupal core:

https://www.drupal.org/about/core/strategic-initiatives/auto...

This still means there is no out of the box way to update Drupal core automatically _yet_, but you can in fact do so with a contributed project, developed and maintained by people that are contributing to the core initiative.
