It seems logical to me that we should believe the Chinese expats over others, since they are the ones who had first hand knowledge. Though it seems they don't necessarily thoroughly understand the exact details of the functioning or policies of the Chinese government, they do understand the effects of the decisions made and actions taken by the government. When the 'nuances' repeatedly involve torture and horrific authoritarianism atrocities we would do well to more than raise an eyebrow. There are many such accounts by numerous expats.

It is cool, but that wikipedia article sure has an axe to grind. I'm not sure I'd agree with the "simpler" or the assertion that CH needs to store tokens. And the variant of rendezvous hashing that doesn't require O(N) computation for placement isn't definitely isn't much simpler! It's a cool technique, but that's not where I would go for a comparison.

From wiki:
> Since the hash function is randomizing, each of the n sites is equally likely to receive the object O. Loads are uniform across the sites.

This is a really interesting topic of its own! The first sentence is correct, the second is asymptotically correct, but untrue in a lot of practical cases. It's very easy to overestimate the degree of uniformity you get from random allocation, especially where the number of "balls" isn't very large compared to the number of "bins".

Yeah, you're right on the money. This is basically insane in ML, but _especially_ in corporate environments, think F500, where sudo is disabled in containers and experimentation (in terms of trying different package versions) is quite challenging due to security restrictions.

Frankly, it's one of the reasons that we're seeing a lot of excitement around stuff written in Rust, but with Python bindings[1][2]. Cargo makes it so easy to build across various platforms and then just produce statically compiled platform specific python wheels. If PyTorch and TF had been written using Rust, any other other ultra high perf language with a tool-chain as reliable as cargo, a lot of folks lives would be easier.

This makes no sense, because what do the car drivers do? You're about three feet away from a person either way. They're handing you cash or a credit card either way. The only difference is that one is sitting in a vehicle with the window open, and the other is on their own two feet. Any difference in "exposure" is completely psychological, maybe due to some perception that the person in the car is "in another room". But there's no less physical contact.

Sure, I'll give a pass for some degree of paranoia at the time -- lots of us were uselessly Clorox(TM)-wiping our groceries -- though, we were well past the peak when this happened -- but at this point we all know that worrying about surfaces is almost completely pointless. So all this "contactless" stuff is just a bunch of technology providers and payment networks trying to ride in opportunistically on peoples' fears.

Which, mercifully, have subsided along with most of the threat.
These are subjective things. I don't consider Rust syntax perfect, but I don't these suggestions as way to improve it substationally.

If you want to get rid of `::` and `;` and braces you have to look at the fallout of those decisions.

Braces are imo much better at being robust than whitespace.

def Foo[T]:
t: T
size: u32 // invisible error here because someone used tabs by mistake

`;` disambiguate expression vs statement. If you remove it you need way to differentiate between them.

Another problem with `import foo.bar.baz` is how will you distinguish between a method call or a type declaration? E.g. `std.option.Option.Some` what is this? Type? Method? Module?
What is `std::f64::consts`???

Not to mention you kinda have to have compiler in mind, if syntax is ambigous you're going to have a very bad time.
There's not a whole lot that can be done to combat this, but I suppose Apple could do something like keep a database of known tracking URL patterns and when encountering such URLs, "unwrapping" them in an isolated background webview which is fully generic across machines and doesn't have the user's cookies or other data, which would limit the information gathered, and then finally passing the untracked URL back to the user's webview instance.

EDIT: They could also do something similar to what they've done with Content Blocking Extensions, maybe call them "URL Cleaning Extensions", which allow third parties to maintain tracking URL pattern lists which Safari can then follow to do its unwrapping.

If you ignore the "best by" label on UHT milk, it can easily (safely) last 8 months. Especially if you store it at 32/33° F.

But more practically, there are different types of containers for UHT milk hermetically sealed to different extents. The more expensive kinds can last years. The US Military says 10 months for "normal" UHT milk stored under "normal" conditions [0]. The more expensive kinds can go much longer.

> As a partial mitigation, Apple is enabling an alternative way for advertisers to measure campaign success, with Private Click Measurement ad attribution now available in Safari Private Browsing mode. Private Click Measurement allows advertisers to track ad campaign conversion metrics, but does not reveal individual user activity.

While as a consumer I do objectively like the privacy measures Apple is adding, at end of the day they're simply consolidating all tracking power to themselves.

Lacquer is resin from trees, not plastic.

I don't know if it's better for you than plastic or really anything about its chemical composition, but it's not plastic.

I mean, that is literally what the thread you replied to was discussing.

The comment I replied to explicitly talks about binary and their use of it, the comment they replied to originally also specifically calls out the OP’s quote which talks directly about binary. You can choose to deviate from that if you want to make a point, but the thread has always explicitly been about binary and that is what we should actually be discussing.

It's really hard! Reasons include:

- Ambient temperatures too low for most fuels and lubricants, and out of spec for most other parts of the aircraft

- No hope of rescue if the plane goes down or gets lost

- No reliable way to light the runway. In the past they've used gasoline filled drums, but it can get so cold that the gasoline vapor pressure is too low and it won't light.

- Extreme isolation—there's really nowhere a flight can divert to south of New Zealand apart from McMurdo, which has its own problems

Remember that the South Pole station is just a small structure on top of a featureless high plateau. There are no paved runways, navigational aids, no heated hangars, no infrastructure of any kind to support aircraft arriving in the dead of night. The risk has been worth taking for urgent medevac flights, but no one is going to gamble with aircrews' lives over a bunch of eggs.

Rust's philosophy is "explicit over implicit" - braces fall inline with that. One extra line for a struct is really not a lot.

That whitespace sensitivity also leads to having to escape newlines, with `\` trailing lines all over the place in Python. I find that far uglier than "4 times the dots" for import statements.

> Of course, I don't agree :-)

For sure, I think that's kind of my point. Like, this all feels very unimportant to me and extremely subjective. I think that rust's syntax fits into its philosophy, however. I would not mind unifying path syntax such that `:` became `.` however.

Well the price difference obviously depends on the number of days you actually need a car, but afaik it doesn't take too much planning ahead to rent through a car sharing app these days. Anyway I asked GPT 4 with browsing to make a ballpark calculation for Germany to see roughly when it becomes more cost effective:

Based on the average costs obtained:

The average price of a new car in Germany is €37,790 1 .
The average depreciation of a new car in Germany after 36 months is 41.1% 2 .
The average cost of car insurance in Germany is around €250 per year 3 .
The average cost of vehicle tax in Germany is around €100 per year 4 .
The average cost of a car inspection in Germany is €120 every 2 years 4 .
The average cost of a parking permit in Germany (considering big cities) is €20.40 valid for 2 years 4 .
The average cost of a rental car in Germany is $55 per day, $307 per week ($44 per day), and $1,318 per month ($44 per day) 5 .
To make a comparison, we need to consider the cost of owning a car for a year versus renting a car for a number of days in a year.

The cost of owning a car per year would be:

Depreciation: €37,790 * 41.1% / 3 years = €5,168.59 per year
Insurance: €250 per year
Vehicle tax: €100 per year
Inspection: €120 / 2 years = €60 per year
Parking permit: €20.40 / 2 years = €10.20 per year
Adding up these costs gives a total cost of ownership of approximately €5,589.79 per year.

We also need to consider that while the daily rental cost is $55, the weekly and monthly rates are cheaper per day, at $44. To make a comparison, let's use the weekly rate, and assume it applies for any number of days.

Assuming an exchange rate of 1.12 USD/EUR (as of my training data cut-off in September 2021), the cost of renting a car for a day would be $44 * 1.12 = €49.28.

Therefore, the break-even point in days of car usage per year would be:

€5,589.79 / €49.28 = approximately 113 days

So if you plan to use a car for more than 113 days in a year, it would be cheaper to buy a car instead of renting, based on these average costs.

I mean 100 days? That's like going for a trip almost every third day of the year. Absolute madness to buy a car if you're not using it to drive to work every day if this is correct. I would presume that the average price is a bit skewed with high end cars moving it away from the median, but the car sharing prices I see are also more like 20-35€ per day, so that probably balances out.

> The main problem with Reddit, and the crux of my point, is that year on year the problem creeps into even the smaller and intentionally non-political subs.

My main problem with your conclusion is that this does not comport with my - and seemingly many others - experience, and my brief time as a mod has shown me that people who believe themselves to be victims often don't appreciate or admit their own culpability.

But I can't say that with any certainty, you're a whole human being with your own lived experiences, and I've no desire to review your reddit comment history either way. I do appreciate you are not the only one that feels as you do. I just can't square my experience with the one you claim impacts "every user" which is, quite frankly, preposterous and one of the main reasons I have a hard time taking your observations at face value.

But that's about all I have to say on the matter.
> You don't need fancy AI to destroy the fabric of society.

You don't, but you can do it a million times worse in just a fraction of the time. Considering how trivial Facebook can worsen our lives just imagine how effective it could be. That is the risk you are taking. Before we have even time to course correct we've lost everything we know.

> The more appropriate path is developing countermeasures or counter-technology.

If we get good AI the countermeasures are not going to be great. They alone could easily be dystopian. Since, captchas etc. won't be good enough. The only way to TRY and prevent abuse is to ID every action and tie it to a physical person. You could try to make that anonymously but yeah, like that is going to happen. And that is the easy part.

There is no tech conference on earth that is having people physically removed by police for not wearing a mask.

These policies exist to try to satisfy the different comfort levels people have around covid, but an obvious part of any rule is that if they are impractical or impossible to enforce and a sizable number of people are not following the rule, then it's pretty much pointless. Nobody attending a tech conference with a mask mandate is under the impression that someone who isn't complying with the rule will be removed. They know that some people won't comply.

That's been the case with mask mandates in most places for a very long time. Compliance is low, theres no way (or will) to enforce, and that's not to mention the myriad exceptions to the policy (eg, masks not required when eating or drinking) that essentially make the whole think a joke to being with.
If your entire team is in the office, that can be much more productive than remote work. But how many companies will be able to get even 50% of a team in the same office at once, even if they force everyone to RTO? Companies already moved away from that when they started setting up offices around the world and allowed people to effectively work from anywhere. If 25% of your team is in an office in Belgium, 25% in San Francisco, 25% in Mumbai, 25% remote... is it the 25% remote that is really holding back workplace synergy?
