I don't think this is a top-down deliberate strategy. As evidence, if you load the thread today, a bunch of comments are gone, including all but the first two comments from the @Raspberry_Pi account. Most likely an adult showed up, realized it was creating horrible publicity, and deleted a bunch of stuff.

Though... looking at https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/chrisstokelwalker/raspb... , it looks like one of the founders is not necessarily much better: called the complainer a "concern troll" and refused to admit any wrongdoing or responsibility as an organization.
I have a year old WP site that showed up on Google, but wasn't indexing all pages. I submitted the .xml sitemap via

https://www.google.com/ping?sitemap="url"

But that didn't seem fully effective. I then succumbed to uploading a verification file to the root directory (requires Google account) and resubmitted an inddx request. Within 12 hours a Google search of

Site:"my url"

yielded all pages. I'm terribly rusty with websites, hence my use of WordPress and willingness to taint my root directory with Google files. I do notice that exact, relevant queries in quotes still show no results for some content. Much to relearn.
Glove80 vs. Kinesis Advantage360 Pro: Quick Comparison
You know your own logic can beat that of others right? Citations are just links to places where other people wrote down their logic and aren't magic fairy dust that'll make an argument true.

People geting paid more is inflationary. People producing more output is deflationary. We need lots of both.

Company profits come from things being produced and then bought. So when profits are paid out to owners and employees as salaries, dividends, and other mechanisms, it gets filed under "people getting paid".

Now my main point is that if S, T and M have been underpaid vs their true output, they should get more.
Funny thing is that very often I am not seeing the best result. Or even good result, but some stolen or SEO optimised junk...

So to me it seems they are missing good content, not the bad.
I've wondered about trigger marks in models, both closed and open models, right now- Consider if you are a company like OpenAI and you want to make sure that, in the event of one of your ex/employees stealing the weights of a model and taking them to another company, that you can prove that this new competing company has used your weights as the basis for one of their models- You drop in some very specific fake knowledge and keep the inclusion of that knowledge private and secret, and if the day comes in court you need to prove to a jury that this other model was copied, you bust out this secret prompt that you show you know the context and output of before execution.

It's the neural net model equivalent of a Trap Street on a map.

It’s annoying but for whatever reason these vendors have special coupons randomly on their direct site or clip and save on Amazon (but there’s 50 listings for the same product so you have to get lucky). I got a N5105 with 16/256 for $130 shipped. Cheaper brands like ace magician has them at them at the cusp of $100.
Some people are getting to see how authoritarians work in real time.

Authoritarian: "The people I don't like are stomping on babies!"

Unliked group: "Hold up, we actually have video of you baby stomping"

Auth: "See, see, see, I told you they were going to make stuff up and accuse me of being the bad guy, this is evidence they are bad"

Middle Ground Guy: "Well, I guess both sides are bad"
This is, in my opinion, the biggest gap in the market. Selfhosting shouldn't be any more difficult or less secure than running an app on your phone.
On the other side, I've also noticed it appears to be aggressively pruning its index in the past few years, so the fact that it's crawled your site doesn't mean it's necessarily searchable either.

Another "bug" that seems to manifest quite often: if I search for a specific phrase or unique word on a page that I found in a SERP, so I know it's crawled that page, it often doesn't return that page either.

Add to that the automatic CAPTCHA-hellban you get if you use "site:" in anything more than a tiny amount (and the one you still get if you search "too much"), and I realise that there's increasingly huge amounts of information out there on sites that Google may have crawled before and knows about, but doesn't want to show me for some reason. I remember it used to be much easier to find information about obscure topics even if it meant wading through dozens of pages of SEO spam; now it's nearly impossible for anything but the most vapid of queries.
Heh, skimming over the comments it looks like no one has the same setup I settled on: Home Assistant as just a simple API.

Home Assistant was pretty simple to install and connect to devices (I'm currently all Z-Wave), but I didn't really care for its built-in rules. But it provides a REST API to interact with everything connected to it, instead of having to fiddle with configuration files.

So I have one system that makes sure the remote Home Assistant process is running, that provides a simplified API for everything else (mapping simple labels to the Home Assistant Z-Wave identifiers and handling the REST request for me), and a second one for actually controlling it with whatever rules I came up with.

I've found it to be pretty stable overall.

Apart from the CEO's posturing, it seems like the "More Tweets" shown around other tweets to unregistered users are now heavily skewed towards that demographic even when wildly irrelevant to the actual content being looked at

(the popularity of certain commentators producing that sort of content isn't exactly unique to Twitter, and nor is the other irrelevant tweets mostly being cat pics, but I suspect the fact that nearly all the politics Twitter randomly surfaces to people who haven't cultivated a profile with the opposite preferences is of that ilk probably reflects who buys the blue ticks...)

Either you are trolling, trying to pass as a ultra-tough meritocrate or you just don't care about other people. Maybe all of the above.

We should be trying to optimize public services, even if that means cutting staff. This is an area where we should 100% leverage AI and automation. Tax dollars shouldn't be used as charity to employ administrative staff. Many states are having problem with pension debts. These public unions also refuse to act on productivity or performance measurements. Perhaps some sort of bipartisanship Congressional committee for federal workers could be useful, with state and local level peer committees.
Once de-dollarization hits an inflection point there's a good chance that hyperinflation and chaos will follow. I hope we can somehow avoid that.
No, it just goes to show that trust goes both ways. Trust doesn’t mean that one side can dictate the rules and the other meekly submits. Those weren’t the moderators’ principles anyway, they were imposed on them by corporate.

I don’t think that would work in the modern era. The employees would probably be considered trespassing at that point; and would be removed by judicial forces.

I think it’s also worth noting U.S. labor history that workers were massacred at a Carnegie Steel plant just a few decades before the sitdown strike was invented, for doing something very similar.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homestead_strike
Not beautiful, but I use HomeSeer on Ubuntu. It is commercial, but after spending a couple thousand dollars on all the home hardware and server, spending a bit on software makes as much sense. It is reliable with my automations. I have added custom devices and automations through scripts that publish MQTT messages.
For simple remote control, I tend to eschew their UI and have HomeBridge publish device access to HomeKit.
I think academic scientists are criminally underpaid (especially at the NIH), and really hope something can be done to rectify this. However, I don’t think unionization is the way.

Ultimately, unions' power comes from the threat of striking. Unions' demands only have teeth because of their ability to completely suspend economic output for an entire company or industry. This is possible because economic output of most unionized industries is collective: a factory worker has no personal stake in the individual widgets that s/he makes, and thus can dispassionately suspend widget production along with everyone else in the union.

By contrast, science is extremely individualistic. Each "widget" is a scientific publication, which is directly attributed to a few specific contributors, and crucial for advancing an individual's scientific career. Thus, scientists are extremely passionate about their individual labor. Furthermore, science is often very time-sensitive — there is a huge premium on being the first to publish. Time sensitivity is especially high in the life sciences, since experiments with living things often cannot be easily scheduled around a strike.

Passionate, individually invested scientists are therefore much less likely to voluntarily suspend their work than dispassionate laborers in collective industries. This makes striking much less impactful (there will be a lot of scabs in a scientific union strike), thereby negating much of a scientific union's power.

(Imagine — you are an NIH postdoc working on a major publication in a hot field that will make or break your candidacy for a tenure-track faculty position. You are aware of several other labs working on the same project. Whoever publishes first gets most of the scientific accolades, and thus career advancement. The NIH union decides to strike. If you join the strike, it will set back your project, increasing the probability that one of the competing groups will scoop you, potentially greatly setting back your career. Are you going to let this happen?)

To the extent that this is true, it's a corruption of the purpose of companies in our society.

The reason we created "corporations" as a concept was not simply to have a vehicle to make as much money as possible, any way possible. It was to serve society by providing services and making products, which would then be sold, and, if they were good enough, would make the company a profit.

This idea that no business should ever be expected to do anything but what makes them the most money the fastest is toxic and is ruining our economy and our society.

If they had an actually good IDE for it that was LispWorks I would give it a go.

Forcing the overhead of learning CommonLisp, which is actually a fairly big language despite the syntax, on top of learning how to use emacs is a big ask.
Around half of what your employer pays goes to the state, health insurance, retirement insurance, social insurance, ... In the US I assume you need to save much more money in case you lose your job or can not work anymore due to health.

Also education is paid for by the state. In the USA I heard people pay off study debts for many years and are thus also forced to look for high paying jobs

Carbon as in carbon-footprint is CO2. But only because public discourse is very imprecise.

If you want to be scientific CO2 contains carbon, but isn't carbon.

In this article it doesn't seem to talk about carbon as CO2.

> Java is the king for a reason.

Of all the reasons Java is popular, ergonomics is absolutely not one of them.
The following can both be true:

- Defense contractors, who have a vested interest in selling more weapons, are subtly influencing the public debate about Ukraine to convince the government to award more weapon contracts.

- On its merits, from a purely strategic point of view, it would be a good idea to buy more weapons for Ukraine to help them push Russian forces out of occupied territories.

So this is a situation where the greed of defense contractors may coincide with the common good, at least for a while. But we should remain vigilant and have safeguards in place to ensure that these firms don't price gouge the taxpayer.

I dunno, windows 3.1 was and still is a bizarre mess of different UI ideas. It's like half original mac desktop, half norton commander and none of it makes sense. You even have the completely wacky MDI paradigm for many apps where you effectively put a window manager inside your window manager. It all really made no sense and there's a very good reason windows 95 threw it all away to start over with start menu and the desktop paradigm we all use today.

Not the parent, but quite serious. Social media apps have been carefully engineered to hijack evolutionary reward systems and quickly lead to addiction in most users. This is not idle speculation, and it’s been known for quite some time that these companies employ researchers and experts who maximize the addictive pull of these products through an understanding of human psychology.

I’d argue that the analogy to drugs here is really an analogy to addiction, and there’s no magic involved in addiction: just exploitation of reward pathways leading to maladaptive behaviors.

And we don’t see an increasing percentage of people walking across busy and dangerous intersections, driving on highways at high speed, walking through dangerous neighborhoods, etc. while looking down at a deck of cards, oblivious to the world around them.
Hypothetically, I was going to object to this but then I realized I haven't quite proven it to the level that I'd give to kids. We are juuuust starting to get the inspection tools and I really just in the last couple months got my auth and network drive provisioning worked out where it could be a thing... but yeah. It's all bullshit until it isn't.

I really haven't put that idea out aside from to my partner I just realized. I'm glad you find it compelling. I think a thing that I like about it is that the same thing we want for children, inspection into it's contents and providence or training from scratch or amalgamating trusted models or agents, we're always going to want to know and have for ourselves too.

I think when I wrote this article fairly drunk and manic and was like "I should try medium.com" during the last US insurrection impeachment hearings... I dunno, scroll down to the bottom where I talk about choose your own adventure books if you want to skip my opening wanky prose. Eh, yeah. I think it's a fun tough read. I think the reason I got to the conclusion is directly related to why this is important for protection of everyone. But I think when I wrote that is when the model and interface pattern we need for that thing popped into my head and it grew. It's nice that it could easily be org-mode compatible. I'm pretty much there with my data, training, and meshvpn/mTLS cluster of clusters that is cool with talking to your cluster. But yeah, parents want the same things but they also wanna run whacky AIs and shit that can connect to the web. Keep the kids air gapped and build close networks of people to share tools with that you can audit. I think that's just "the pattern" that should emerge.

I don't claim to have invented it, but if it turns out I did I guess I'm gonna call them "Media Prophylactic Agents". I wanted to come up with something funny or an neat acronym, but I think that's just what they are called.
The language doesn't push you towards interfaces implemented once, but many developers indeed persist doing it for no reason at all. With proper code review we're able to make that practice go away on the projects I'm working on.
Well that’s when WW3 starts. The US will not allow that to happen without a fight.
> That's a much smaller proportion of people than are served by welfare programs,

That's still a non-zero need for the administration and overhead of a welfare system.

> Some initiatives still need to exist but UBI obviates the need for the majority of them, simplifies the administration, removes bureaucratic expenses,

How does it remove anything if the other systems still need to exist?

By definition alone, the existing systems still need to exist, only without the economies of scale that they have today.

By the way, I don't think UBI obviates the need for a "majority" of them. It obviates the need for one welfare payment system. The others still need to exist to serve whoever they are serving now.
Yes, it is magnitudes more inefficient, with large JS payloads, slow APIs, and underpowered cloud hosts.

Of course, and in other news, Microsoft thinks Microsoft software is the best solution to any problem.

What worries me more though is the lack of weapons. Here's why:

It's clear Russia isn't going to stop. Putin would find it extremely embarrassing and politically harmful to just stop without getting anything out of it. All those sanctions, all that money, all those lives lost would be all for nothing.

It's equally clear Ukraine isn't going to stop. They see it (in my opinion very correctly) as a very existential fight to preserve their country and culture. Surrendering a good chunk of your country to an enemy that's been killing your people for a year is also politically nonviable and maybe even impossible.

So obviously this is only ending when one side becomes unwilling or unable to keep fighting.

If giving weapons to Ukraine is a good thing at all then the most moral option to me is giving Ukraine the means to achieve a swift, decisive win. Keeping things even has no legitimate purpose to it, it only gets more people killed on both sides.
