True, but for someone who is already working in academia (i.e. most people producing science), refusing to getting involved with that is equivalent to quitting not just your current job but the whole industry and career, ceasing to do science by moving to a different profession.
> A lot of artists are migrating towards the "patron" model

If ad revenue shrinks, making ads less useful for them (or even if not, given the patronage trend) why wouldn’t Google just enable the patronage model as a monetization model within YouTube, unencumbered by concerns for ad-based (or general audience) monetization.

Going to a three-tier (1) free/nonmonetized, (2) premium (with or without ads as an alternative to viewer-pays-google flat rate), (3) paid-subscriber-only model for content (where any creator could particpate in any combination of tiwrs with different content), where the last would be free of most of the content monetization, or even just content, restrictions that apply at the other tiers, would seem to be a fairly simple and natural evolution of the service. And you could easily have the Google share at the last (and even the middle tier) ratchet down with longevity and established user base so you'd pay a bigger share when you benefit most from the platform for discovery, and less when you need it less.
Sometimes, you can't make hard walls between subsystems. Some filesystems need very close interaction with memory management to have very good performance. Some objects are accessed and manipulated in a racy way from logically independent places for scalability reasons. I am not against Rust, modularity, etc. But building very high performance systems is just something different.
I suspect increased testing &concern in these areas would naturally increase hit rates.
Honestly, I really doubt Google would care. It's not like people will stop working for them or using their products.

Did you write this up as an article in TUGboat?

If you did, and I missed it, could you let me know the issue number?

If not, please do --- it's amazing!
Nice points. You don’t even have to argue about internal vs external causes. The real question is about capability. To me when a person is not receptive to advice about lifestyle changes it’s less about stubbornness or ignorance and more the patient communicating apathy, lack of energy, motivation.
I don't know why you're downvoted. If they picked randomly there's around 21% chance of getting a distribution like this (4+ women) randomly. And 21% chance of getting 4+ men. This means that there's just about 58% chance that random distribution is "fair" with respect to race.

But why focus on the gender. What about skin colour? Or maybe political preference? Do they have to be weighted to the average population too? This is of course silly - that's an newspaper article, not a scientific paper.

Edit: my math was off, 12% instead of 21% (brain fog, it's 3am here). My point still stands.
Seems there’s a lot of anger about the topic; maybe. One description I heard which sounds pretty good is: depression is anger turned inwards; rather than expressed: expressed through either being processed or turned outward, or both? I guess.

Spotify, I just can't work without listening to music anymore (espescially Radiohead haha).

But, I've been thinking about buying an album directly, without relying on subscription service, and definitely without DRM. I just can't figure out where to buy it. I haven't seen any music CD shop in almost a decade in my country.
Which means that unless you can get info on what a particular hiring manger's preferences and annoyances are, your chances of surviving a résumé screening are indistinguishable from chance.

Almost every time I'm given advice (by people who should know, by being SHRMs having X years experience as a hiring manager) that isn't taylored to a specific reader, I learn yet another hardline contradiction of somebody else's advice. For example, another commenter here asserted that you should use sentences (to put keywords in perspective/context), which I've heard multiple times, but I have far more often been told to use phrases and keywords because sentences take too long to read. Proponents of each seem to view it as a MUST, and auto-reject anything that looks like the other. This same pattern holds for almost every bit of résumé advice I've ever gotten.

Some people even say to submit multiple different copies with different style variations "so that one might get through, while others say that if they receive more than one for the same role, they discard the candidate.

I quit health insurance. I always thought it was a "must-have", and a lot of my friends and family still tell me that, but I just can't support the system as it is today. Haven't found an alternative yet, as the US health care system seems to have a de facto monopoly on health care in the US. I do miss going to the doctor, but hey—people lived for hundreds of years without health insurance, I'm going to be fine.
At the risk of repeating myself:

"Regardless of their merits, if Google wants to take you to court, they could bury you in legal costs before it ever goes to trial."

All I'm saying is be careful. It might be worth consulting with a lawyer to see if there's anything you need to do to protect yourself.

And honestly, it could be a non-issue. But it'd be better to hear that from legal counsel.
My disney+ sub ran out, and they have nothing new on the release schedule. So im not subscribing again until theres a backlog to watch.

Netflix is coasting, once stranger things final season comes out i think thats unsubscribed for good. They no longer do prestige tv, its reality tv nonsense or good shows cancelled on a cliffhanger.

My prime just renewed but i set an alert for next year because i will probably cancel then. Other than "the boys" its mostly a wasteland. And the free shipping is of dubious use when things that used to be 1-2 day are now all 5-10 days anyway.

Hbo max is through a grandfathered cell plan, but theyve been trying to destroy themselves too, so if that goes away i wont sub.

I admire the people that rotate their streaming one month on at one a switch frequently but thats more planning than i can do.
Yep, that's typically what I do. Often takes a bit of filtering to find the signal in the noise, but that of course depends on how common the name is.
The trying to create reality is simply recreating familiar paradigms to help new users hat a foothold. You can't jump right into the most modern user interface. Even voor advanced users.

This is why a 'modern' desktop still mimicks a messy desk from a 70s office worker. The very easiest computers skipped that step due to technical limitations but the mainstream users had a hard time grokking them. Only with the mobile phone have we started to really leave that behind. VR will be similarly rooted in the past until people find their footing and embrace new ways to interact.

And why meeting rooms in VR have to have chairs, tables and people have to draw on virtual whiteboards instead of just in the space in front of them in 3D. The tech is getting there, but our minds take even more time.
I try my best to shelter my brain from social media, but I am not perfect by any means.

I quit Facebook a decade ago, Twitter recently. Tried CoHost but no one is there and now dislike Tumblr's lack of multiple feeds, so I suppose I do miss a bit of "endless scrolling and seeing what cool people are up too", but honestly Discord + reading/mindfulness is starting to replace it. Slowly, anyway.

Reddit sometimes gives me a dope rush, but I need to knock that off, too. I try to read news headlines once a week to not get emotionally bogged down. It's all just noise in the end.

Still pay for Dropbox, still pay for Amazon Prime. Occasionally have CrunchyRoll/Disney+/HBO turned on for a few months before we cancel it after we mine the well dry or a show finishes up.

I understand your point. But the original premise is to find a relationship via hobby. Then some said it's wrong. You should have a hobby because of the hobby itself. People looking for relationships in hobbies would be a turnoff.

So the original question is how people find relationships IRL (outside dating apps). Some answer just get a hobby. But then the same problem remains as you can see.

The same thing can be applied for working in an office. People do get relationships in an office but you would be a turnoff if you said you're looking for a relationship when applying for a job.

So for people looking for relationships primarily, what should they do outside dating apps? Or should they just repress their desire and live their life? If they meet one in hobbies or offices, great! If not, c'est la vie.

Her political ideas are still nuts though.

"Why Stalin is God"[1] is the most marked example; e.g. "He [Stalin] created a communist paradise for righteous people, while bad people were sent to GULAG.", or "Someone may disagree by saying: there was a censorship in the Soviet Union, and it was impossible to say anything against Stalin - therefore everyone loved him. However, we must admit: the censorship was done by the people - there must be someone who sends you to prison if you don't love Stalin. Stalin obviously couldn't do this himself, on the contrary, that was done by other people for Stalin, because he was loved very strongly."

I'm not even going to spend time addressing this nonsense; it should be obvious to everyone with knowledge of Stalin Russia what's wrong with this. This article is an apologetic for evil. Sci-Hub is used as apologetics for evil. I wouldn't have minded so much if she just uses her own website for this kind of drivel, but she uses Sci-Hub.

I'm pretty sure people's responses would be different with s/Stalin/Hitler/. I don't see why it's all that different; both were genocidal mass-murderers.

I know everyone here loves Sci-Hub, and I like the idea of it too. Everyone can make their own decision based on this, but for me, personally, I find it hard to support a site that explicitly defends evil in such a way.

Had prime for 7 years. Quit over a year ago. If there's a show I want to watch and it's not available anywhere else I just buy it now. As for the shopping part of prime, I only get things I don't care about from then now. Coat hangers, garbage bags etc but less and less as time goes on.

Same with Netflix. I just borrow a friend's login or pirate it.

Spotify is a must have for me that I haven't quit. I have a dream of finally setting up my home cloud instance and ripping all my old CDs and just buying a couple albums a month DRM free but there's always something else that takes priority for time and money.

I miss nothing from the services I don't subscribe to. I can always sub for a month to Netflix if it's "in the moment" and I am feeling lazy.

Lack of reproducible builds seems like a big cost here.

I wonder if there's a way to do just-in-time random relinking such that the performance cost is low, but the security benefit is still strong.

Just-in-time gets you reproducible builds, and also addresses the "local attackers who can read the binary or library" problem.

There would be a performance cost in terms of startup time, but since the number of possible permutations is a factorial function of the number of possible linking orders, it seems like even a very coarse-grained random relinking can go a long way.

You could accomplish this by doing static analysis of a binary to generate a file full of hints for ways to rewrite the binary such that its behavior is provably equivalent to the original. Then there could be a wrapper (perhaps at the shell or OS level) which uses the hints to randomly relink on the fly just prior to execution.

Another advantage is that this approach should be feasible on an OS like Ubuntu where everything is precompiled.

However the static analysis part could be a little tricky? I'm not familiar with the state of the art in static analysis of compiled binaries.

Performance-sensitive users could be given a way to turn the feature off, in cases where fast startup time was more important than security.
"Science" has institutions to pay for the journal subscriptions. As a random human person my life has changed drastically since the late 2020 India legal case. I used to read a dozen papers a week via sci-hub and now I read maybe a 2-3 and none from the last couple years.

So science marches on but without public access to the full text articles all we have to go on are the usually low quality science journalism press releases.
If we assume (for the sake of a reductive argument) they want either food, or water, then feeding them apples can't resolve which it was, because apples are moist and in Deer-efficiency terms may be "meh: I was thirsty this does"

So from a "what action/noun" pair perspective its give <something> and it's not clear what <something> is without a more consistent experiment to make it clear its a choice A or B.

But what it can go to is "give" is in this. <stare at human> is pretty strongly bound to 'give me something' -Right up until you realise they want to headbutt you or are staring at their own reflection in the glass or really are just zoned out.. or a million other potential interpretations.

The thing here is that Animals are probably doing min/max on the cost/reward outcome and could stare for an hour, for a remarkably diffuse win. If its safe, warm, sheltered and MIGHT have one of food, water or a back rub, it might be a win set against the energy cost of foraging.

It depends entirely on how the program is implemented. If you record the classroom lectures and post them online and call it a day, then yes, it will be woefully inadequate.

> no one, anywhere, has any interest in reading anything

~825 million printed books were sold in 2021. Reading is such a common pastime that people just don't talk about it. It's also not a particularly social activity unlike most video games so most people won't bring it up unless they read a very popular book that you might be aware of.
Based on the linked report it is clear that these disturbed individuals see commiting mass killings as a way of getting society in general, their families or objects of obsession to listen to their grievances. (Desire for fame, parting messages/videos for families and others).

If we reported on these incidents with a similar approach to suicides (minimal focus on the individual, no discussion of motivations, offering of therapy and support services) there would be a general decline in these tragedies. The tabloid sensationalism and Internet arm chair detectives are giving these sad people the platform they're looking for with disastrous results.

I agree that would work, but culturally that's not how most organisations seem to be using it. Instead Slack seems to be viewed as a synchronous messaging tool - "if I send you a Slack msg, and I don't get a response within 2-3 minutes, something is wrong"

I work for several different organisations that use Slack. Every time I start working at one, I turn off notifications and mark myself as busy or away, then jump onto Slack at logical intervals during the day to respond. Within a day or so, I have people asking if I'm OK, then when I explain, I get told that there's an expectation that "people should be always accessible via Slack" (generally a mealy-mouthed version of that, but the message is clear).

To me, Slack is like sitting in the desk next to the only coffee machine in a large office - constant interruptions and zero chance to get into a flow state.
That only happened after it embraced the free market and capitalism though. Communist China was, as you say, quite poor for decades.

Capitalism can take many forms and is often tempered with more socialist policies. No country – including the United States" is "pure capitalist". China has its own spin on capitalism, but that doesn't make it not-capitalism.

Not it is not. Politics is "team sport". Vetting individuals (look at Sinema's bleeding heart eyeroll to pure cravenness transformation) is hard. Vetting organizations is much easier.

> It is likewise a benefit that our distribution of representatives is weighted somewhat by geography and (indirectly) economics rather than purely by population. Should flyover country count less than coastal areas because farming automation has reduced agricultural jobs per acre compared with LA or NYC? Yes, certainly, but to what degree is the question. The industrial and agricultural importance of these areas means that we are better off when we give them larger representation per-capita than they might otherwise expect due to their meagre populations.

This is ridiculous. This is not the 19th century; Industry and Agriculture are big enterprises that are perfectly capable of being run on a national scale. If you want to promote them, do so based on the national interest with industrial policy, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_policy. Land-based representation promotes backwards romanticism, not well-engineered modernity.

> If a person can't breath through their nose, I suggest trying Afrin.

Be careful of the "rebound" effect with nasal sprays. Years ago I was "hooked" on Afrin. Not in a getting high sense but in the sense that I started to constantly need it in order to breath out of my nose, even after my cold went away. It was a terrible feeling and took weeks to wean off.

With a bad cold and miserable congestion, nasal spray like Afrin is like a miracle. I still use it in those instances but only for 2-3 days max and very sparingly.

If you really can't breath out of your nose well see a doctor.
