> Except some ISPs did eventually cutoff access to the alt.* hierarchy. Some terminated their NNTP service entirely.

That happened after the attorney general of New York threatened to sue them, not because the ISP didn't like certain opinions or viewpoints.

> That case is not related to the 1934 Communications Act and neither are the other two cases you cited. You’re thinking of the Communications Decency Act which is a separate law with the famous Section 230 clause

That was a misunderstanding on my part. Regarding net neutrality, I'm not sure whether its repeal made a practical difference in terms of how people are able to connect to services over the internet. Given the widespread use of encryption, ISPs wouldn't be able to tell whether someone is using a service over HTTPS on port 443 or some other application level protocol using the same port.

Though if ISPs did place substantial limits in their bundled usenet service, then people would choose other ISPs or 3rd party services and/or complain. Just as they would if their ISPcs SMTP server wouldn't send messages to certain domains or if their web browser was blocked from accessing certain websites.

> DNS is probably a core service.

The ability to establish a connection to a remote server using an IP address is a core service. DNS isn't required. Discounting TLS certificate validation, I could connect to a remote server using their IP address instead of their hostname.

ISPs used to provide documentation instructing the end user how to connect to email, usenet, and how to set up their router or computer to access the internet. This could involve access credentials, DNS settings, etc.

> ISPs trying to do anything but give me Internet for money = bad; so a USENET or USENET-like service but at a much larger scale as a service provided by ISPs = unappealing.

Personally, I don't see the issue. If I can get a service bundled in with my existing service, then why not? If the service is significantly inferior compared to third party offering, then I still have the choice to sign up and use it.

> When AT&T cut off USENET access in 2008, it wasn’t just because they were being threatened with legal action over hosting child pornography on their NNTP servers, USENET had in their estimation declined past the point of return and it was no longer worth providing to their customers, particularly with a changing legal landscape that put them further at risk for continuing to provide it.

That doesn't really explain why a lot of major ISPs made the same decision within a short timeframe. The threat of a lawsuit does.

> There will never be a sequel to or rebirth of USENET at social media scale without moderation

Unfortunately, people prefer to use third party services and complain about their free speech rights when those services make arbitrary decisions about what's allowed and what's not. Usenet didn't have that problem.

Have you ever taken notes during an interview? If I wrote "the candidate" every time, I would just lose track of what the candidate is saying.

On top of that, I don't know how it works at Bitwarden, but interview notes are only supposed to be used by you to later synthesize, so it shouldn't matter if you write "the candidate", "the dude", or whatever else is the most efficient when taking notes.

Lastly, it wouldn't even come to my mind to ask a candidate's pronouns in an interview, so it's already unreasonable expectations for me to even know them.
Your summary is accurate, I agree with it, though the question of whether Playboy is “arguably” contextually misogynistic isn’t really even up for debate, it’s a well known fact that lots of women (and men) have repeatedly pointed out for decades. The issue with Lena is more than the potential that it could make female researchers uncomfortable, it actually did, and some of them were kind enough to let people know, and ask politely to consider more carefully what that makes the field of research look like to outsiders, and whether it is truly inclusive for women if we demand the right to keep using a pinup in research and act incredulous if anyone doesn’t like it. That makes us seem immature.

I don’t know what you mean by “children” or what you’re reacting to exactly, since I didn’t make any specific claims about children, but where is the line? Do you consider female high school students or college students to be children? (I’m old enough that I do.) The movement to stop using Lena is about having the entire field of computer vision set a better example all around, for young people and adults, for men and women. There is a particular emphasis on what using Lena in research looks like to high school and college women because we have a history of accidentally excluding women from tech, and high school & college are the times when kids really decide what they want to do, right?

The issue is the browser unable to deal with gateway UPNP... well since the web engines are now real cluster f*ks of everything, they could add a DOM interface for it.

A lot of normal usage moved online, which means it's one of the hundred tabs people end up with. For a lot of people, working with documents is rare, and working with multiple in separate windows is very rare. Things that deal with many files like IDEs do so internally.
>To phrase it more succinctly: it's a stupid idea because a 12 year old teenager will be able to train these models on their phone in a few years.

No -they won't. Legislation will be written which will forbid companies such as github and gitlab to host models or any sort of AI building programs or data.

Think of the ban on cryptography in the 70's up to the 90's, but on steroids (with the very rich in on the ban, and not just the military).

The 12 year old won't build jack nor shit because he won't have the means to get the software to do so. This will be treated like munitions -and back "in the day" even professionals had issues around that (didn't dmr have to explain himself over crypto back in the 70's; or am I misremembering that?)

Yeah. I'm bit sad about it too. I thought the ELM architecture was great concept.

I read the article and I'm left scratching my head why this advice doesn't apply to DRF.

The DRF Generic ViewSets and Views provide maximum magic plus they also shift part of the creation process into Model Serializers. Doing anything custom with this setup involves overriding bunch of methods and chasing their original definitions through an handfull of mixins.

Police do that for every single warrant.

There is no adversarial process in getting the warrant, but the people on whom the warrant is served are given a document explaining the evidence that led to the warrant. The police give it to you when they do their search, or after the search is complete if it was something like a wiretap.

If the document does not support the need for a search or contains evidence that is fraudulently obtained, you can fight it either by striking the evidence at your trial or by separately suing the bad actor. At a minimum, during your trial, the warrant becomes part of the record and is publicly obtainable.

In the FISA case, the warrant document does not contain the evidence against you, since it is secret, barring you from fighting its validity later.

Also, when a crime is in progress, police don't need a warrant if they see it. They can just intervene. However, they can't search you for evidence of further crimes without probable cause of that other crime or a warrant.

That’s the end goal already with their API fees. They just handled the entire execution and messaging poorly.

I think the Apollo developer mentioned that in order to break even with the new fees, they’d have to have subscribers who are paying $5/mo. To make a profit, third party apps would need subscribers who pay within the $60-100/yr range that you mentioned.

Reddit probably knew this would cull the number of third party apps out there, which is to their benefit since their mobile app would have fewer competitors. I bet they’re also banking on most people not caring, or eventually coming back to the platform after a short period of time.

I sincerely hope that they’re wrong and the user base doesn’t return.
I really don't think the name matters from a safety perspective. Also, if you want to base it on the definition, you'll find that its a pretty reasonable analogy to an airplane autopilot. The pilot of an airplane can't just walk away while on autopilot. But I don't think the definition matters much, because I don't believe the name can cause significant safety issues, and also there is no evidence to suggest it is causing issues in practice.

Also, your other argument really depends on what "X" and "Y" are, and I think you'll find that they are not really claiming what you think they are claiming.
> Without any comparison to humans those numbers are completely meaningless

I disagree.

What I want to know, is is it safe? Not is it safer than the average human driver, but is it safe in an absolute sense.

When a human driver crashes we can almost always pin the cause down to human error. Errors caused by some human failing, being less than they could be. The promise of machines is that they are consistent. They are never "less than they could be", but are consistently at their best.

Comparing humans and machines is comparing dogs and roses - it is interesting a rose smells better, interesting a dog is more loving (or fierce), but not a valid comparison

The linked Bloomberg article actually says that buses served Jacob Riis Park (not Jones Beach) at its opening, and that it is in fact true that the Southern State Parkway has lower clearances along the route to Jones Beach than other similar roads around the region from that time.
Moses didn’t want black people going to Jones Beach (his pride and joy). To prevent them from visiting he built the overpasses on the highways that go to the beach lower so that buses from the city couldn’t fit.

This is a true and interesting factoid, but I don’t see how it ties back to any transit issues. Unless you think buses having access to the northern and southern state would meaningfully improve regional transit?
Not sure what you mean, WASM is a language independent medium. HTML is not an internet protocol, that would be something like HTTP, TCP or UDP. Even with HTTP, you can send any data you want, not just hypertext, which is how WASM is sent over the wire.

> series of if/elif/else

in my personal experience this can also happen when using class based. It depends on how much your application is "CRUD-y"

with a CRUD, it's easier to go CBV and have minimal branching, and use the different HTTP verbs based on the CRUD operations.

but sometimes you have apps where you have a bunch of different operations, and maybe all of those operations are just types of updates to the same type "Foo".

in that case, FBVs work best, because you can just do

def update_foo_expiry()

def renew_foo()

def rename_foo()

etc. etc. - all of the above would have ended up being if/elif/else in a put() method in a CBV
How is accessibility done for mobile apps? I assume it's the same way it'd be done for WASM, it's not done simply because WASM GUI apps aren't widely used but once they are, accessibility will be developed, just as it was for HTML.

This "third position" is basically anarchy, or anarcho-primitivism.

It's not really a political position, it's more like a pathological insistence that civilization should be destroyed. Kaczynski went as far as saying we're biologically wired to live primitive lives and we're misusing ourselves in perversions that he calls 'surrogate activities', which include science and art. To him, hunting or trying to survive while being hunted in the woods is the perfect utilization of the human mind-body, and we should all abandon society and go do that instead.
