What's edited out of peep show?

The swastika post-it?

How would you even edit that out? If I recall correctly it puts the whole character of Sophie in a different, much more naive, light. It's one of the first times we actually get anything longer than a small transactional interaction from her and it deconstructs some of the character that has been built up from Mark's (imagined, infatuated) head.

I might be misremembering the early series though, it's been a while since I've watched it.

This is a bit of a tangent but the scene as a whole also shows one of the key differentiations between UK and US tv is that UK tv doesn't have the apparently uncontrollable need to make the central couple seem desirable (and restrict them to "oh so human" flaws which aren't really flaws). This is also very obviously evident to anyone who has seen The Office then tries to watch The Office (US) where the Tim and Lucy characters are warped into star-crossed lovers who are destined to end up together. The US programme can't help but have an every-man character for the audience to root for rather than a more pathetic self-sabotaging character who kneecaps their own career progression for the sake of pursuing a romance that hasn't actually progressed further than the confines of his head.

Counterintuitively, it can be cheaper timewise (and money-wise) to spec and build a new factory than to re-tool one that was custom-built to manufacture cars with a large set of core assumptions about power plant and drive train.

The idea is well known for hundreds of years, but here's a particularly salient quote for your line of thinking.

----

"In so far as the reduction of costs of production and distribution thus achieved is reflected in reduced prices, society as a whole ultimately benefits from the use of standard contracts… The use of contracts has, however, another aspect which has become increasingly important. Standard contracts are typically used by enterprises with strong bargaining power. The weaker party, in need of the goods or services, is frequently not in a position to shop around for better terms, either because the author of the standard contract has a monopoly (natural or artificial) or because all competitors use the same clauses. His contractual intention is but a subjection more or less voluntary to terms dictated by the stronger party, terms whose consequences are often understood only in a vague way, if at all."

I find the city to be better for small children and for disabled people than car focused suburbs to be honest. It means stuff is closer to get to and both groups of people are not completely reliant on other people driving them around to get to places. I do not believe the only way a world can be livable for disabled people, small children, and elderly people, is to pave the entire country in tens of millions of miles of roads and drive on them with heavy and dangerous polluting machines.
Man, imagine that. Overnight Louisiana would be become a major tourist destination. Mardi Gras would be off the hook!
> In America violence and weapons are pushed onto "the children" daily.

A double-negative is not a positive.

> But god forbid they learn about or see a sex act, which by the way quite literally is what ensures the continuation of the human species.

Sex, which ensures the continuation of the human species, is not the same as watching porn. No porn is needed for human-beings to know what to do.

Come on! You know this argument is bullshit.
Hopefully this will spur action to do this for all other contracts of adhesion that consumers, workers often face.
Love taking my gloves off to use an app in freezing weather.
That's the left's problem IMO. The right knows that their game is to gain power and use it to achieve goals. The liberal left (which is most of it if we're honest) thinks they are just trying to gain enough power to make everyone play by the rules. The problem is that there is not enough power in the world to make your enemies bargain in good faith.

Anyway this derailed from the OP which is about some new rules that might slightly tip the power in the employer-employee relationship in favor of employees. As an employee (leftists like to say "worker" but it means the same thing), this would be good for me.

Nonetheless, I would claim it's a lot more than half of people who would want self driving cars. How many daily commuters exist? I surmise atleast 90% of them would want self driving cars if it were a proven, familiar technology with a reasonable barrier to entry.

Yes, but the signatures are what's keeping your funds secure, not the hash.

To explain why, we need to talk about a type of nonstandard transaction people used to do as a sort of puzzle: hash-only outputs. This is a Bitcoin transaction whose outputs can only be spent by someone who knows the input that gives a particular SHA-256 output. Cute, right?

Problem is, this is a proof of knowledge, not a proof of identity. Anyone else can replicate it once the problem is solved and the solution does not restrict itself to whoever is identified as the first solver. Which means that the only thing that keeps people from claiming THEY were the first to solve it is the Sybil-resistance that keeps the blockchain from being reorg'd.

In Ethereum we call this the "dark forest" problem[0] - anything in the mempool that is not cryptographically locked down can and will be manipulated to the benefit of others. Smart contracts make it way more lucrative to scan the mempool for manipulable transactions, because instead of looking for the one guy solving old SHA-256 puzzles you now have potentially millions of arbitrage opportunities to find. But this isn't limited to Ethereum. It's whoever mines[1] the block wins.

So if quantum computing breaks RSA, that turns all existing coins into SHA-256 puzzles on a blockchain whose users haven't internalized the maximal extent of transaction malleability. The only way to avoid having your coins stolen would be to coordinate with trustworthy miners to include your signature transition transaction into a block - almost certainly with a very large fee, effectively a cooperative confiscation[2]. Those who rely on the kindness of strangers (read: the mempool) will find quantum computer owners and miners fighting to see who can steal their coins first. And the only protocol-level change to fix this would be to just invalidate all RSA signatures and treat all old wallets as burned.

[0] https://www.paradigm.xyz/2020/08/ethereum-is-a-dark-forest

[1] The Ethereum term for this is Miner Extractable Value, which reportedly has even incentivized miners to reorg blocks (i.e. a short-term 51% attack) if and when they can get away with it.

[2] This is, again, another thing Ethereum's ecosystem already thought of; they call it Flashbots.

Why? Most VPN services accept crypto and other forms of payment.

They can share accounts with their friends, use their parents credit cards, get their own debit cards (I had one a 14), or even using a pre-paid CC (I've not tried it, but I think it works). It's so easy to get access to a VPN as a minor.

Also, the biggest selling point of VPNs is the ability to watch streaming services in other countries. So it's not a hard sell to parents.

The old common law barred non-compete agreements as contracts in restraint of trade. It was superseded by statutory anti-trust regulation and the creation of government agencies like the FTC. If you think the latter doesn't have power to regulate these matters, we fall back to the old common law and non-competes are still unenforceable.

How do you even calculate damages for such a civil lawsuit? I thought damages have to be quantified: You hit my car, and it costs me $1,000 to repair it, so damages are $1,000. Someone goes to PornHub for a wank, and who's wronged? How much did it cost the wronged party?

It sounds like you're saying that Tesla has no competition if you ignore their competition. You can't be dismissive of Chinese EV makers, who are rapidly encroaching on western markets and are reshaping the motor industry. Here in Norway I'm noticing more and more Chinese EVs on the road and they are competing at all levels of the market, from "affordable" to high end. To add to those numbers, many originally Western marquees now have full or partial Chinese ownership.

Many Chinese companies are multifaceted or have co-ownership with suppliers. For example, look at a company like BYD, which appears to be out producing Tesla and has yet to fully enter many markets. They also build their own batteries. The Chinese motor industry is a formidable competitor.

Apple TV was my first attempt at trying a streaming service outright (instead of a bundled service like Amazon video or using a friend's parent's account they signed into once on my TV)

The experience is awful. They have a similar experience as Amazon video where they pretend to have a lot of content and when you find something you want to watch they throw up a pay gate. If you have to do research online ahead of time to figure out which shows are on the service you can spend that same time finding it elsewhere.

There's also plenty of annoying quirks with the UI like assumptions that you only watch a show on your account and never anywhere else so navigating to seasons is a pain.

The original shows are pretty good (they seem to have a weird Disney+ aversion to any nudity but violence is fine) but it was an easy choice to cancel before any free trial periods ended.

Keep dreaming. They will not make a meaningful peace proposition until they're defeated and fully evacuated from the 1991 borders of Ukraine. This is exactly why weapons deliveries to Ukraine are essential to achieve that.

Pocket PC was a thing and it was great.

We have come so far in human progress that nobody invents something that is ‘miles ahead’ of everyone else.

What people do is they manufacture a narrative which purports such claims and shove it down people’s throats.

That is even more true in a sector which is almost 200 years old such as automotive.

Right, but those amino acid chains are rich with self-interactions because the subunits each have so many different elements within them, like those big cheaters carbon and nitrogen. You can get all kinds of exciting stuff with that.

Were they only chains of sulfurs, could we get much out of it? Knots, possibly, I could make room for a knot in the chain of sulfur leading to something interesting, or a vague Van der Waals or other second, even third-order effect, but it's really on the knife edge of possibility.

Why should internet porn be the ONLY exception to requiring age verification?

We already require age verification when you buy drugs, buy guns, vote, buy a drink, buy porn mags from a store, buy cigars, access alcohol websites, access gambling websites, etc

But if you're a 10 year old trying to watch adults fuck each other, that's totally fine (as long as its on a screen of course, but not a window screen, and certainly not in person - a distinction that apparently makes all the difference).

Nevermind that children can't consent to the harm, just as they can't consent to drink alcohol or smoke cigars, or look at porn in a magazine.

Do you have a reason why internet porn should be the ONLY exception to requiring age verification for adult things?
Well, here’s the thing. That is how the world works. You do get shit delivered to you within a day or two. You do get to watch whatever you want, either for free, or for a price. We do get to do those entitled things simply because we were deadly serious about being entitled fucks.

So, with that said. I do want prices to a) drop b) services to consolidate and if they don’t, I will get all my shit for free. And so will others.

And we’ll have a better world because of it. The same way we have everything else at our fingertips.

See, if we want to talk about reality and how the world works, then the truth is everything is built on leverage. If users opt for free, well then that’s a whole lot of leverage. No huffing and puffing will solve that, now will it? That’s reality.

If we couldn’t get it for free, then we’d have no leverage, they would. Then they can charge anything, and no huffing and puffing would solve it.

Calling them greedy, or calling us entitled, is just huffing and puffing. That’s how the world works.

The consumer and business are never in a discussion (there’s nothing to discuss). It is always a barter based on leverage. “Why don’t you pay this price, you are being entitled”, is not something the business can say to me, and likewise, “Why don’t you lower the price, you are being greedy”, is not something I can say to the business.
Which is why I'm always surprised by the makeup of the coalition of voters that support strict zoning. Personally, I don't understand how zoning isn't seen an impairment of property value requiring ongoing payments from the government to the owners, with the idea being that if the zoning is a benefit to the community then the community's taxes should be paying for that benefit. As it is, it's a hidden tax that prevents open discussion and accurate cost/benefit analysis.

I dunno, they seem pretty spot on for the US.

In the US, "free market" generally means one of two things...
1 - a fictional market with no externalities and perfect information symmetry. Ayn Rand fans think it's real, but it only exists in an ECON-101 textbook.

2 - code for "rules for thee, not for me" as said by the billionaire class. Or, really anything that keeps them rich and the rest of us beholden to them for basic life necessities.

Edit - I prefer a phrase like "functioning market" to "free markets". Or maybe "fair market"? Not sure. The current labor market in the US is dysfunctional, at least when considering the share of increased productivity seen by the working classes (vs business owners).

Edit2 - changed "perfect information asymmetry" to "perfect information symmetry"
