But again, the info is publicly available, there is a mechanism to obscure it, and he is not availing himself of it.

Separately, the nutcase who intercepted his car did so miles away from any airport and there’s no evidence or police report to suggest that the flight details were what allowed this to happen.

I’ll also throw out there that he has a security detail for his family, which makes sense if you’re (one of) the richest people in the world, regardless of whether someone tweets your jet’s location. He’s actually far better equipped to deal with stalkers than the typical public figure. Doesn’t make it okay, of course, but look at what happened to Paul pelosi - the spouse of the 3rd in line to succeed the presidency gets his head smashed in - where’s the outrage over how their location was found?

No one is saying TypeScript is as robust as a baked-in typing system, but it's a godsend for ~98% of code one writes in JS.
It makes sense to me to take content discovery out of the protocol. This allows different apps on the same network to create different mechanisms for discovery.

Some may want a pure chronological view of posts from people the follow with no algorithm, some may want pure algos a la TikTok.

In Windows 10 at least, if you remove the Search box / icon, you can still access search by typing while the start menu is open. This means you can quite easily search from the keyboard alone by first hitting [Win] to open the menu, then typing a query. If the result is a program, hitting [Enter] then launches it.

Does this not work in Windows 11?

...Well, you have lots of reading to do.

When the left damns "groups" as you say, it is not aimed at the individuals made up of this group, but rather the whole social construct. Why ACAB ? Because the police institution, as it is, is a corrupt monopoly of violence, where abuse gets neither reported nor punished. You can be the best of samaritans, but in an institution such as the police, you will behave in a way dictated by this social construct. White privilege, in the same way, is recognizing that people of european descent naturally have less roadblocks in life, _due to those social constructs_. (Although the whole "privilege" term comes from US leftists which have always been dogshit at naming things. It is rather a disadvantage imposed on every other person on the basis of skin color, which is directly linked to the US's racial history).

As for "brave muslims", it's a particular group of idiots that will bend over backwards to self flagellate for being white. Leftists have no love for any religion (opium of the people, yadda yadda) in general.
Maybe I am reading something into your comment that isn't there, but I don't think this is particular to two-party systems. Israel is explicitly not a two-party system (it uses proportional representation), yet it seems to becoming increasingly and strongly polarized.
Weird thing is, I think it's very reasonable to adopt a "if the forum moderator and their friends just personally don't like you, you will be banned" approach.

This works fine in many smaller internet communities and it's even more or less the standard on places like SA. The capriciousness is kind of part of the fun of hanging out there.

From the point of view of running a business though -- Twitter is bleeding cash. Frankly, it's a little inefficient to staff a trust & safety team if they're just gonna be doing what the sysop says. What value does Ella Irwin's team add to the business now - can they not be completely automated and replaced?

My guess would be their team mostly exists to help EM learn to use internal tools and maybe to provide some cover for the FTC consent decree. Those don't seem like long-term reasons to staff a team.

Nobody outside a select few want to host their own server. And nobody wants to research which server to join, before they’ve experienced an ounce of product benefit, nor how to back up their data. This was always going to be centralised to a degree. But Gmail/Outlook with some Proton/Fast is distinctly better than Twitter, Musk or no Musk.
Radio and light are both electromagnetic waves. A radio is just a way of deciphering those waves into something else like a digital signal or an audio signal.

> He’s not even speaking in hypotheticals —- a nutcase intercepted his car.

This appears to be unrelated to any actual tracking of his plane. He was so concerned for his safety that he never filed any police report, instead asking Twitter to dox the assailant.

Moreover, he banned the elonjet account, and then banned anyone who linked to said account, which included journalists reporting on the ban. He then bailed out of a call when said journalists asked how linking to an account that is suspended and shows nothing can be considered doxxing. He also held a poll on when the elonjet account should be unbanned, redid the poll when "now" when, and still hasn't done anything when "now" won again.

Nobody mentions it in the Stack Overflow conversation, but if you set cookies for domain.com, they will be shared with all the subdomains (e.g., www.domain.com, admin.domain.com, etc.).

This can be a good or bad thing depending on how you want things to work and what your security profile is.

I tend towards using www, since cookies set there won't automatically propagate to all subdomains. More restrictive for better baseline security.
> The older I get the older the age of 'irresponsible youth' becomes. Now it's past the twenties..?

I feel the same way, but with the opposite conclusion. The older I get, the more larval and innocent teenagers and twenty-somethings seem.

I mistake 25 year-olds for 17 year olds. When I'm explaining something, sometimes I can't think of a historical or technological analogy that a 25 year old is likely to understand.

I see the mistakes in reasoning that they're blundering into with the best intentions (and utmost seriousness) that could have been avoided by reading a little more, thinking a little longer - then realize I hadn't read that stuff by my early twenties either, and could have easily made the same mistake. Then I remember some of the mistakes I did make, and wish they had been harder for me to have made.

That is the result of a myriad of security measures that they and their families take every day, including not publicly broadcasting where they are in real-time or exactly where they are going to be at a specific time, among many, many others.

And even when they have to do that occasionally (e.g. when the public knows that they are going to attend a public event), they have to take additional security precautions, to protect themselves against someone hurting them, kidnapping them or robbing them (or their families).

Even presidents/prime ministers of entire countries, who are not as rich or famous as Elon Musk, occasionally (or always) require extreme security precautions, like having bullet-proof vehicles, police escorts, streets being closed, dogs sniffing around for explosives wherever they go, and much, much more. And Elon Musk doesn't even have access to all these measures, because many of them are not available to private individuals in many countries.

But even if you could, you wouldn't want to take these increased security precautions all the time, it's just not realistic or desirable to have a police escort and/or the secret service following every rich person and closing streets everywhere they go.

> Security through obscurity is no security at all.

You say that like if that analogy holds for physical security...

Or do you think that physical security only truly exists if everyone knows exactly where you are all the time and they still can't hurt you? With regards to physical security, that's not a thing.

There are only a certain number of obstacles, and the more obstacles, the better protected you are. But there is no silver bullet, especially if you want to have a life and not live in some bunker somewhere.

Not all computer analogies hold in the real world. Cryptography doesn't give you physical protection.

I think this + your comment below are some of the better arguments I've heard for a positive side to 4chan.

> Either the mass killing didn't really originate from it, or it did, and the authorities never acted on the very easy to find messages to prevent it.

I worked with law enforcement to build new investigative tools for them. They are woefully unequipped to handle a lot of proactive investigation on the Internet. I would absolutely argue the latter.

> it's likely this has nothing to do with 4chan

Our tools of communication absolutely effect our thinking. A tool of mass communication effects or collective thinking. This is why the line for protected speech is such a challenging topic.

We've agreed that threats of violence violate the law. We've agreed that spam should be banned even though it violates no law. I think it's fair to argue that extremist content shouldn't be given a platform for recruitment. Because that platform is invaluable.

How to prevent that is a separate issue. I'm personally a fan of removing flagged content from search results while still leaving the posts, but that's just one approach.
> Twitter's policy is simple - do not dox people with real-time location information

This is a novel Twitter policy interpretation and everyone knows it. It’s par for the course for Twitter. But it’s hypocritical of Musk to be doing it.

> Elon's jet has a PIA which limits legal use of broadcast ADS-B information

No, it does not. It lets operators rotate their aircraft address. Elon didn’t. He held the phone wrong.

If the FAA wanted to restrict the use of this information, it wouldn’t be publishing it.
>It was also on a day when ElonJet wasn't operating.

This is false and easily verified for yourself.
Yep, absolutely correct.
> Who cares about his private planes?

The many people that followed ElonJet before it was banned from Twitter.

In most ways, I agree with you. I don't particularly care and it is a distraction from real things.

The one area that I disagree is that it draws attention to the fact that Musk is doing things that are very bad for the environment while his main business is trying to convince customers that they're saving the planet buying his stuff. It's harder to sell that global warming is a crisis and everyone should get one of your electric vehicles while you're flying your private plane everywhere. Sure, other companies can also be bad, but Tesla has been (in part) selling a vision and a lifestyle.

For me, I don't care about the tracking, but the fuel usage and CO2 generated is interesting. For example, the average American produces 15 tons of CO2 per year [1]. Musk took a 9.5 hour flight on his jet to London producing 51 tons of CO2 [2]. I think tracking his flights and in particular their pollution does harm to Tesla's image as a green company and instead makes people think of Tesla as a project of a billionaire that isn't looking to save the world, but to enrich himself.

A decade ago, Musk was the environmentalist of the future. Since then, his image has changed dramatically as he's ranted against public transit and it's come to light that Hyperloop may have been an attempt to torpedo high-speed rail that would have competed with Tesla cars [3] and as the Boring company has gotten cities to bite and then ghosted them [4].

Instead of Tesla's electric cars being one portion of a green transportation future, we're seeing a CEO that's actively harming environmental efforts while trying to enrich himself. As people started calling him out on those things, he's quickly descended into right-wing propaganda - a place where he feels safe from those criticisms.

Yes, I don't really care about his private planes, but I do care about the fact that Musk and his businesses seem to be working against positive goals for the environment and society - and the private planes are one manifestation of that.

I ordered an MS Surface Pro 8 when orders went live on the MS site. It turns out it had the dubious honor of being the very first laptop to ship with Win11 pre-installed. There was no mention of this on the order page or way to opt out. So it was a surprise when it showed up.

I rely heavily on taskbar features so ExplorerPatcher has been my savior and the only way I stil have Win11 installed on that machine. It was a little rough in the early days but it's gotten much more reliable, especially if you're not taking bleeding edge Win11 Insider builds from Microsoft.

> should it be a criminal act to listen to radio waves that are in public? What would define 'private' and 'public' radio waves if that were the case?

An earlier comment in this thread addressed this in it's entirety by citing an example of real legislation which gracefully handles this.

> What would define 'private' and 'public' radio waves if that were the case?

There are radio waves which the transmitter intends you to receive, and radio waves which the transmitter does not intend you to receive. Generally you'd be fully aware if a transmission is meant for you or not, but the legislation referred to earlier would not impose any penalties on you for accidentally listening to transmissions not intended for you.

> if someone were pointing a video projector of their video baby monitor out of a window and it shown on your wall, do you think it should be criminal to look at it?

That would likely be an deliberate act by the transmitter, whereas the RF-based baby monitor example would not.

On the other hand, setting up cameras to look through someone's windows would certainly be a criminal act in many places (as IMO it should).

What exactly do you think is wrong with this law?

> (2) Whoever receives or otherwise has information on a confidential radio transmission not intended for him/her must not wrongfully disclose it or make use of the knowledge of the contents or existence of the transmission.

The law essentially just mandates you to stop listening as soon as you realise the transmission is not meant for you. Only deliberate violations are penalized.
>> There is a saying that "there has never been an armed conflict between two nations that both had a McDonald’s". Russia has broken that, but that is case where the exception proves the rule.

That was from a 1999 book by Thomas Friedman.

"Shortly after the book was published, NATO bombed Yugoslavia. On the first day of the bombing, McDonald's restaurants in Belgrade were demolished by angry protesters and were rebuilt only after the bombing ended. In the 2000 edition of the book, Friedman argued that this exception proved the rule"

-- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitalist_peace#Golden_arches...

You also have the Russo-Georgian war, Russia's seizure of Crimea, and various other conflicts depending on your definition of war - US invasion of Panama, conflict between Israel and Lebanon, the Kargil War.

In general, if you are relying on something Thomas Friedman said for your argument, you are almost certainly wrong.
That not every plane used by musk technically applied, or is able to apply, for a PIA kinda misses the main point. Sweeney )the jet tracker) has proudly claimed himself that he has cracked the PIA and will continue to post musk's location to matter anyone's privacy wishes.

Yes, but this is entirely at odds with globalization. A primary reason we outsource production to developing countries is to exploit their lack of regulation (including environmental regulation). If the UK transitions to green energy, they’re not subject to Putin, but they’re still subject to Xi and they are still contributing substantially to emissions. Moreover, transitioning to green energy will probably create reliance on rare earth metals and other minerals that will likely be controlled by despots.
