> Peoples morals do not improve, only temporarily

:shrug: Even if this was true, reducing harm and doing more good even in the short-term is a pretty worthwhile goal. Eventually people will slip up, and then they'll have to start again. I mean, I also have to shower every day to stay clean, but I'm not nihilistic about that just because I know I'm going to occasionally miss a few days.

But I also think this is also kind of observably false? I've seen racist/bigoted people become genuinely less bigoted over time. I'm not worried that they're going to suddenly relapse, and even in instances where they still have areas to work on or where they might slip backwards, it's still not really comparable to where they used to be.

> Let's just say that narcissism is the norm nowadays, especially in first world countries.

How does this make sense if people are immutable? Are they being born narcissists because of a new genetic problem? Is it that people's morals can improve or degrade, but only while they're children?

I don't see how you're squaring the idea that people can't change with the idea that society is becoming more narcissistic.
> I mean, if you want to argue that the story is actually a substantive and intellectually interesting one, containing significant new information

Why would I want to argue that? It certainty doesn’t describe the million identical ChatGPT circlejerks that rocket to the front page without getting flagged out of existence.

This NFT story was no less tech adjacent than them, and no less vapid and inane than them, but it had the appearance of being embarrassing for a certain hyperpartisan political segment, so it was flagged by a bunch of those supporters, and you in your infinite fecklessness are sitting here back-inventing justifications for this flag based on “well no I’m sure all those flags were about the low intellectual quality of the article” as if 97% of the front page wasn’t idiotic pablum aimed at potted plants.

It’s hard to take seriously the suggestion that you’re too stupid to realize those flags weren’t politically motivated and not just a comment on its indistinguishable-from-any-other-garbage-that-gets-popular quality.

Quillette is not right wing. It’s the new “anti-woke liberalism” like IDW. Just because you disagree with wokeness doesn't make you right wing. Its just a schism in the left. There is same schizm on the right. Log cabin republicans are not right wing. In fact most republicans are not right wing. They are just liberals driving the speed limit.
In the short term, you are probably right. In the long term, people will move to the most convenient option. That means the experience has to be better than bit torrent.

If I’m allowed some generalizations, I think it’s safe to assume that his current behavior is not new. He has no morals. He uses whatever legal ways he has to achieve his goals.

And if I can generalize a bit more, probably most rich people do and that’s how they got there.

The lesson here is don’t expect to become rich or wealthy by being a do gooder.

I am not interested in sports but when I was in my teens, no other name was associated with any sport as was the name of Pele with football. As you said, it seemed no one was interested in football but everyone knew Pele was the god of his game.
When I was first exposed to C (perhaps in Byte Magazine), I was dead certain that Pascal would win out. I wonder if the minor optimizations achieved by programming closer to bare iron on early computers led to a minor performance advantage that outweighed the need for readable / maintainable code.

As a disabled person myself. It is both abnormal and negative. I don't care about any specific wording used to describe me beyond the ability to allow clear and succinct communication.

A jerk is going to be a jerk regardless of the specific syllables used so why trip up well meaning people.
> Instead of "blind review", consider using "anonymous review". Context: Unintentionally perpetuates that disability is somehow abnormal or negative, furthering an ableist culture.

Such recommendations reflect the authors own prejudices.

Some forms of blinding like "Blind auditions" are literal and are largely indistinguishable from how blind people normally conduct auditions. "Blindness" is a symbol of justice and fairness and non-prejudice.

Blindness is also one of the easiest disabilities to achieve, temporarily or permanently. If blindness is at least neutral state of being, nothing stops one from wandering about with a blindfold. Somebody who fails to do so while talking about how blindness isn't a negative is insincere and all talk.
In my eyes, the limitation of these models is that they only fit a limited amount of context. Not the complete API of your code base, or the latest version of the libraries you are using. I also don't believe a bigger model would resolve these limitations.

However, I do believe there could be a meta model that can query code and libraries.
While a few people dislike Musk, Microsoft, or both so much that they want nothing to do with a product owned by one of those two, far more people were concerned that the new owners would change Github and Twitter for the worse. That didn't happen to Github, so most people stayed. It is happening to Twitter, and people seem to be leaving.

I am not. I'm saying I don't have to imagine a world without TypeScript, I've lived it.

If penalties were truly random then teams wouldn't practice them. Goalkeepers wouldn't study their opponents' past penalties or use cheatsheets when facing kicks. There wouldn't be so much analysis and game theory poured into the perfect sequencing of kick-takers.

It's true that penalties test fewer skills than a full-fledged game of football. But they are still a contest of skill, not a game of chance.

I’m never sure what people mean when they say things like this.

I found community in Twitter by following people I knew, a small number of organizations, websites and celebrities, then occasionally following people I learned about through retweets or replies.

How did you do it on Twitter? Did you use the search functionality? What did you do with it? The idea of doing that just seems overwhelming to me.

I mean all this genuinely - this is not intended as a snark post! I am sure your way of using Twitter is just as valid as mine, and maybe it’ll give me some ideas for things I could do differently.
Looks broken, unless it's just _supposed_ to be a static starfield.
The debate should be settled now. In terms of trophies, Messi is the GOAT. In terms of statistics (goals, assists, dribbles), Messi is the GOAT. In terms of style of play, Messi is the GOAT. Pele, Maradona, and Cristiano are not on his level.
I think putting this policy in place is actually good for Twitter's bottom line.

People will be promoting all kinds of competitors and trying to get people on Twitter to retweet those things.

A competitor is some site that acts as a third party, not the actual media article or primary thing to link to. So Twitter having this model makes business sense.

Does it makes Elon Musk a hypocrite? Of course it does!!! Capitalism restricts free speech, and even compels other speech. Here is an example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxtkvG1JnPk

Anytime an employee (e.g. a news anchor) has to stay away from topics, repeat talking points, or get fired and replaced by an organization, that is capitalism at work. They are an employee being used as a mouthpiece, not a human being saying what they really think.

Capitalism and private ownership of large organizations is not about freedom. The concept of ownership is literally about restricting other people's freedoms to do as they wish with what you own, and compelling employees to do this or that, or get fired.

There's this weird assumption that capitalism somehow encourages free speech. And guys like Elon Musk and Donald Trump are therefore associated with it, and allowed to spew garbage about Free Speech, because they're billionaire capitalists. Um, no. To go in depth, watch this interview I did with Noam Chomsky last year:

Usenet too, old as the hills, continues to archive via NZB/NNTP.
Specifically, we will remove accounts created solely for the purpose of promoting other social platforms and content that contains links or usernames for the following platforms: Facebook, Instagram, Mastodon, Truth Social, Tribel, Nostr and Post.
I assume so. Though I expect that this is another one of those things that Musk's attention will wander off somewhere else in a week or two.
This really is such a crazy policy there’s not much else to say about it.

Well there you go. There was a user (jakelazaroff) minutes ago replied her claiming with an anecdote that '...many of the people I follow have talked about moving to Mastodon' as if that is any rebuttal of my comment and he ends up deleting it altogether.

This is exactly how you know that the techies here and the media are driving this false narrative using panic and fear tactics after they realised that Twitter did not fall over as claimed weeks after since it is not been admitted that this article did not age well.

In reality, Twitter has been more alive and still running with its 200M+ daily active users.

Taking matters into your own hands in terms of wage theft might include demanding payment with the threat of violence, or forcibly taking what you are owed. I think both of these would be morally justified.

The main difference between defending yourself and property and wage restitution is one is proactive to prevent the harm, and the other is retroactive.

Given that the harm has already taken place in the case of wage theft, I think there is at least some duty to attempt to use the existing legal processes.

Death is something people in my culture try not to think about much. It is considered that the dead are totally dead and gone, never to be spoken to again and spoken of with sadness and distance.

People of other cultures think differently about death. Death is welcomed into the day to day life. Consciousness of death is invited, even celebrated. The dead are spoken to.

This second group of people don't believe in the finality of death. They believe and live towards life after death, believing in either some sort of continuum of consciousness or of their own consciousness as the process of an immaterial soul that will live after the body stops.

Stories of death and near-death are full of the unexplained and perhaps unexplainable.

From a western materialist perspective alone, death is fascinating if you look at it. Where does our consciousness arise from? It must be from the brain, right? And it is a sort of illusion, since we don't have individual souls. The perception of consciousness is a labyrinth of mirrors, self references.

Yet, the same machinery for perceiving ourselves is also used to perceive others. We are constantly simulating and imitating one another. We're even working to modify and live up to others' images of us.

So the patterns of the consciousness of any individual are actually distributed, holographically, through a community of brains.

This being known.... Who or what died when one brain dropped off the grid? (For more in this direction, read Hofstadter).

Even more simply, what changes take place in a dying person? What is the difference between a person who embraces death and a person who dies in fear? Is it possible to be happy while dying? What would it take to live a life that ends happily?

This is what I mean when I say that death is worth being curious about.
I generally support the initiative, but they seem to have omitted the most important category: class bias.

> This is kind of silly. Yes, nuclear is more expensive than wind, but this is irrelevant because (as the article also acknowledges) you can't replace nuclear with wind, you need something that works when the wind is not blowing.

But, nobody cares! See, because there's not a single party responsible for everything with sane priorities.

People will build wind because it makes a profit. People won't build nuclear because it doesn't. This will keep going until you end up with a heavily wind-powered system that lacks stability, but nobody building plants will care about that. Eventually power goes out, and solutions will be sought, but nuclear still won't be profitable.

One possible solution is overbuilding. Have lots of wind and solar. Another solution is interconnection -- maybe half the power gets burned in transmission losses, but if you need it, you need it. And probably there will be a lot more interest in grid storage.

Unlike the majority of comments here, I think its fine & rather quite impressive actually. Doesn't it look like how you would normally experiment to discover more about something?

You try out several edge cases, observe the results and learn from it.

Twitter is likely using extensive telemetry to observe the behavior of it's users and is now just running extreme experiments until they find something that shoots up the engagement.

If this doesn't work, I am sure Elon can easily revert this policy and make a statement on how he listened to the people.

I fail to see how "blind review" "perpetuates that disability is somehow abnormal or negative". I understand how disability "is abnormal and negative", and that makes sense; although in many contexts is better to be specific and use a neutral point of view. (Someone wrote "normal" (and "natural") is a bad word, and I can see, it is compared to something which is allegedly "normal" and "abnormal", though.) (However, some people if they are already blind, might not care anymore if they can see, and might be able to compensate for blindness, if they are used to being blind, opposed to someone who is temporarily blinded.)

However, it still makes more sense to use "anonymous review" instead of "blind review", because the reviewer is not necessarily unable to see the review (or the document being reviewed), although it is anonymous, so "anonymous review" makes sense, and is better descriptive.

There are many problems with this list, although some of the things mentioned are sensible, at least in some contexts (the suggested alternatives are not always appropriate).

BASIC illustrates the "one-screen problem," where a program becomes unreadable when it exceeds one screen, or perhaps one printed page. The one-screen problem is how I explain to beginners the value of things like subroutines with named arguments, local variables, and the like. Languages that survive, have to work for the size of programs that people want or need to write.

">Instead of: Philippine Islands

>Consider using: Philippines or the Republic of the Philippines

>Context: The term is politically incorrect and denotes colonialism. Some people of Filipino heritage might use the term, though."

First of all, they're using "denotes" to mean "connotes", so we shouldn't expect a subtle understanding of English.

But second, what "Philippine Islands" does is center geography instead of nationhood or identity. What it connotes is that political boundaries are historically-contingent. Similarly, the "British isles" will always be there, barring geological catastrophe, regardless of whether the United Kingdom ceases to exist, say because Scotland and Wales secede.

If you want to work hard at it, you could make an argument that geography-centering language is "colonialist", because, precisely by revealing that borders are contingent, it might suggest that some more powerful actor, an Empire, might reshape them arbitrarily. However, it also undermines nationalism, and many people would consider that to be a good thing. For example, it's a key sentiment behind liberal immigration policies.
