>"On the one hand, airports need to make money ..."

Commercial airports in the US are owned by a local, state or regional public entity.[1] They need to be self-sustaining and break even but they don't need to be profitable in the same sense as a private business.

Further, passengers at these airports pay a significant amount of "taxes and fees" on their fares that go to support operations at these airports [2]. These include a passenger facility fee, a segment tax(one per takeoff/landing), a Sept 11th Fee for security and Federal ticket tax(pays the FAA.)

Not the best explanation for sure. It seems a tool that can be used to offload and potentially decentralize some archiving work from the Internet Archive, with some privacy/anonymity added to help against censorship.
About time I'd say, however I'm not sure if that can be used for bare files as well: books, retrogaming, software, etc.
Well surely there has to be a better moneymaking plot than desecrating FOSS. But generally I agree, I suppose.
Hash verification is extremely important to protect against supply chain attacks on apt.

Also, apt itself is supposed to be protected by distro’s key, but did any distro ever wrote how master keys are securely stored? Is there any other reasonable way to know that apt and entire Linux supply chain hasn’t been compromised already?
Indeed, it's s simplification. If you want to go down the TPM rabbit hole, read this interesting comment about IEEE 1667: https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/windows-itpro-docs/issues/5...

Of course a forum for teachers does not admit they are part of the problem.
And we see what the people with “over site” do in Florida. Do you also believe that it was right that the government in Florida went after Disney because the company spoke out against the “Don’t Say Gay” law? Do you think the government has any right to try to have “over site” because the (Democratic) VPs wife got in a tizzy in the 80s because her little ears couldn’t handle NWA releasing a song called “Fuck the Police”?

Are you one of those people in power? Because the scenario that someone said was that I financial firms that are highly regulated was that if any employee said on chat to a friend at work, “hey give me call on my cellphone and let’s talk about where we are going after work”, you could be talked to by legal.

You are saying that you want an increase by the surveillance state. Have people learned nothing about how the government abuses power from the “War on $x”?
Is your argument that more folks should have pushed back against JPEG XL? Webp was initially released in 2010 when it was the best alternative. JPEG XL came along almost a decade later. The state of image formats is very different.

Don't see much of a reason to use it, its also important to mention that code generation goes both ways. You can generate the schema from a service in FastAPI or Spring and generate the client code from that schema. There are already existing code and schema generators for almost every strongly typed language and web framework, including Go, Scala, Typescript, Java and Rust.

You never have to actually write any OpenAPI schema yourself nowadays.

This also doesn't seem to address the one problem I always had with OpenAPI: Polymorphic types. Mapping an OpenAPI schema between strongly typed languages like Scala or TypeScript. OpenAPI 3 supports this now with discriminators but most code or schema generators aren't supporting this very well or at all yet.

I have. It works perfectly well. My main advice is to wrap the fish very thoroughly in foil, folding the ends tightly, to keep the fish juices and the dishwasher juices separate. Also, if you add lemon, keep it out of contact with the foil, because the acid reacts with the metal when heated; i don't know if it actually affected the salmon, but the foil blackened.
By delta I really mean the kind of finetuning people are doing to avoid directly giving Llama weights.

Mozilla is a dependent of Google's. The thing that stands out about that list is that aside from Google and Facebook (who completely control their markets), the New Microsoft and the aforementioned Mozilla, most of these companies are notoriously openly hostile to anything open.

No, instead Google should made WebP a proof-of-concept that there are technological advancements that can improve and made a successor of WebP like they've done with QUIC (to HTTP 3), not force-slinging it to everyone. Also, WebP violates the "two independent implementations" standard - at least AVIF can be argued to have two different implementations (due to dav1d).

Nonsense. Military equipment is orders of magnitude more complex now. It was possible to take a car factory and repurpose it to make P-51 Mustangs. It is not possible to do that for F-35 Lightning IIs. The materials and technology are just too different.

And even the domestic components have lead times measured in years. In an emergency, production could only be marginally accelerated no matter how much funding and manpower we put into it. That is the reality.
The notion of “alignment” seems optimistic at best. How can we hope to “align” an emergent super-intelligence with our own values and goals?

Frames were quite useful at times, though, particularly for sites that acted as a directory of other sites. With how slow dialup could be it was sometimes nice to have the list of sites you might want to visit in a compact list frame to the left so you didn’t have to hit back 5 times to get back to the directory or juggle multiple windows (because tabs didn’t yet exist).

All we do here is normalize employee comparisons at the employee-employee level, and not at the employee-corp level thus *keeping our working class fighting itself* while the owners ensure we help them pay as little as possible for their labor.

The problem is that of financial opportunity cost: the money keeping the "tank line" active by ordering excess tanks would likely be much better spent on other programs (or even merely not further ballooning the debt). Spending the same amount of dollars on funding the IRS, GAO, SEC, FDA, EPA, or even the USGS or NOAA would likely see much more direct benefits to US residents. Even direct assistance like food stamps or section 8 rent subsidies has a much higher multiplier than spending oodles of cash ensuring the US is ready to defend its hegemony.

You're comparing real world working implementations based on mathml with your hopeful expectations of how you wish katex could work in an epub implementation.

It's good to have hopes and dreams and a positive outlook, but your perceived solution does not exist. It's hardly relevant to present it as a better alternative.
An issue often overlooked by the establishment pertains to the erosion of democracy's fundamental principles as a consequence of a deteriorating education system. This makes me thing it is intentional. There is at least correlation with voting patterns.

I don't think that there will be a collapse. The linked post [1] has this telling line:

Because I’m in a very very blue state and city

Emphasis on city. Every time I've read something about how the education system in the United States is on the verge of collapse or is collapsing, it's been from a teacher (or has quoted teachers) in a city school district. City school districts are in dire shape. But that's because many city school districts are massively overbuilt for the amount of children they need to serve, and politicians are loath to shutter schools. So these school districts chug along, spending more and more money on buildings and facilities that are hardly used, while, at the same time shortchanging teachers and the education of children.

Suburban school districts are smaller, have more children (which equates to more funding) and generally have newer buildings and facilities, so they're not in the same dire shape as city school districts. For that reason, you hear much less about them. After all, who wants to write a news story that reads, "Okay, everything is actually functioning as it more or less should?" This leads to a mistaken impression that all school districts everywhere are on the verge of breakdown when in reality the failures are localized to city districts like San Francisco or Chicago.

The US has worked so long as people were and/or felt they were getting rich, or at least had a shot at it. Everything, including education, was designed around getting rich: being a good worker, being a good consumer, consume current product, excited for next product. Can't afford it? Here is cheap credit.

As people no longer feel that they are getting rich, america will increasingly stop working.

Ironically, love of money is the only thing we americans still have in common:

We live in a society.
The American social contract is broken. Government services are utterly broken, not just due to incompetence but because taxing the rich is seen as anti-capitalistic.

If it were not for the strength of the dollar, the US would have been no different from a third world country. Crony capitalists, uneducated populace, politicians lying to said uneducated populace, corruption at all levels (there is county-level lobbying too), healthcare is inaccessible to the average person and the homeless and prison population is greater than the population of some US states combined

Just to clarify when you say:

You are saying this is wrong:

> The answer is obvious - most people don’t want to do this.

You are saying you believe the majority of people *do* want to learn to program?

I’m my eyes the BASIC prompts at startup we’re there because that’s how you had to interact with computers at the time. Seems like the vast majority of people want to use their phones not program them.

Why Chicago Became So Huge
Theres two contradictions going on here.

The right is, in some cases, pushing for censorship which is very much opposed to the general definition of "the right" which focuses on individual rights and freedoms.

The left's strong support for pro-choice is also a contradiction though. The left is generally defined as focusing on the collective, often leading towards larger government oversight and censorship to further a goal of protecting a certain marginalized group or furthering societal progress. Pro-choice is by definition a stance upholding an individual's rights, a view that really fits better on the right.

The abortion debate has always been a really interesting outlier to me. Both sides seem to argue very similar points that individual freedom matters. The debate really is just about which individual is of concern, the pregnant mother or the unborn child.

I think that the medium shapes the resulting political characteristics of the system, yes the centralized network, where every user is easily traceable thus readily policed and censored, ends up creating totalitarianism, given how human nature works...

So we need to design a system that isn't easily traced, as an inherent property of how it operates, so that it's not possible for those who want to exert power over others, to do so.

Just as an example, using a radio/satellite data broadcasting architecture, where the receiver is untraceable, means that the government can no longer round up people for reading "forbidden" things anymore. That allows us to have a new darknet to replace Tor that's far more difficult for the government to police.

Again as an example, the content request can be transmitted anonymously using HF radio or LoRaWAN, being only a few bytes, and has no sender address. And the response can come down via satellite, broadcast to everyone, who also ends up storing it locally on their computer. That way we can reduce the number of retransmissions required. We already have a usable worldwide satellite data broadcasting network, you can see a list of recent transmissions at https://blocksat.info.

It's certainly enough bandwidth to support a text based darknet, which works in a similar way to how Teletext did, but with caching of content on your local hard disk. Which you can browse freely like the Internet.

There was no expectation that the Pentagon would pass the first few audits. The internal financial systems are so screwed up that everyone knew they would fail. The systems should never have been allowed to deteriorate to that level but now that's water under the bridge. The real point of the audits is to identify the areas that need the most remedial work. Realistically it will take several more years until they can pass.
> In America, where we have a mental illness epidemic.

But other countries also have mental illness problems on par with the US. Why don't they have the same rates of gun violence? Why don't they have daily mass shootings?

> Culture also plays a big part

Many people believe that the US has a unique cultural problem where individuals have near-unrestricted access to firearms, and are also so fearful that they feel they might be compelled to use deadly force in ordinary public situations to protect themselves.

I live in a smaller red city and it's as bad at select schools as it is in SF. Generally public education is horrendous here and everyone with an above median income sends their kids to private school.
The real news here is "American feels he can't send 2 kids to school even with hundred of thousands in passive income". This says more about college than about FIRE.

The problem with this theory is that... German industrial production increased throughout the war, only really collapsing when the advancing land forces overran German territory containing those factories. That is to say, at best, strategic aerial bombing was slowing the rate of increase of German capacity. The Allied attempts to make pinpoint disruptions to German warmaking through aerial bombing were mostly abject failures, at best crippling German production for a month or two before the Germans got it restarted.
