Human intelligence is arguably not even truly ordinal, let alone cardinal. No one who reasonably understands human intelligence believes it's as simple as a normal distribution. IQ is defined as a normal distribution but that doesn't mean the difference between 100 to 110 IQ is comparable to the difference between 140 and 150 IQ. If you boil "human intelligence" down to nothing more than IQ, sure, but in reality there's no such thing as a mean here and median is tenuous as well.

Big issue with Google Maps is that it doesn’t zoom in properly when you are complex turn. Number of times I miss the turn on Google Maps is so high compared to Apple Maps. Apple Maps even integrates with Apple Watch and taps on your wrist to ensure you don’t miss turn. More recently I also found Google Maps is not keeping up with closed roads in real time. Gradually but surely, I have moved on to Apple Maps. I never thought this would happen.
Brave grew from nothing to 22M DAU, while Firefox lost share pretty much every month over those 8 years.

IMO, building in the open is still the best way. But to ensure that you don't end up with a mongrel of a thing that tries to do every single thing requested by everybody, It does help to have a rigid set of goals about what we want to build. And the courage to say NO to feature requests that stray too far from the original design goals.

I would add to this article that a major issue with Google Maps has been businesses trying to SEO-pad their business names on Google Maps, to the detriment of readability.

This is also against their TOS – the "business name" form is supposed to be their legally registered business name, the one that they probably have signage for. Moderators simply don't enforce this, and with Map Maker basically gone, the community of moderators is somewhat of a cloak and dagger group now.

I have tried to clean some of these up via submissions, because in spite of agreeing with the points of the article and using mostly Apple Maps for navigation, Google Maps still is better in terms of having a lot of community sourced data and overall place discoverability (along with Yelp, which Apple Maps seems to no longer source data from).

Examples of these business names:

- {name} - {city name} Axe Throwing

- {name} License Agency - (Vehicle/Vessel not drivers license)

- {name} - Lunch Buffet (Friday-Sunday) - {cuisine} Restaurant - {city name}

And many now have:

- {name of a local chain} - {neighborhood or city name}

Some of this is a UX problem or perhaps data architecture problem – in the case of local chains, I imagine many are dealing with people calling in orders and showing up at the wrong place to pick up their order. Google Maps could do a better job showing the neighborhood/locality/"local name" of the area in the search results.

Others are just a lack of consistent moderation.
Well, to not be morally bankrupt, it takes a sincere will to be decent to others, and a logically coherent set of principles, no?

Because the author of this article shows no sign of either, but neither do many of the commenters in this thread who only look at the symptom: "look kids, the stream of consciousness of a not particularly insightful person is being highlighted in the media because it serves a certain political agenda."

The agenda performed in the article is, incidentally, the usual crypto-conservative pablum that gives the "left-wing echo chamber" its structural foundations, to be spiced up with AI drivel as the technology matures. The general form of the argument being made between the pixels is: "see how dumb and sad this person is - we need to protect ourselves from becoming dumb and sad, by punishing others for having ended up dumb and sad."

And here's the catch. Punishment makes people dumber and sadder. What makes people less dumb and less sad is... intimacy. Which the article and ensuing discussing seems to be at least partially about.

The author has evidenly lacked true human connection before, during, and after their sex work career, only finding it with other lost souls in the nightmarish desert of cities at night. Now she is briefly basking in the parasocial light of having her inner world exposed on The Media. (Aren't we all?)

>People work to marginalize prostitution because it's fundamentally morally bankrupt.

People really love throwing around the "fundamentallies" and the "radicallies", but what is the foundation, or the root, of the issue here? What's morally bankrupt here is that we live in such a way that results in the emergence of a black market for loving touch.

To satisfy one's need for intimacy through "official channels", one is expected to participate in a costly and complicated social ritual with no guarantee of success. Imagine if buying food or renting a place involved pathological emotional enmeshment, and was prone to leave you with your humanity degraded ("heartbroken").

You are just as wrong as the author. The fundamental reason people work to marginalize prostitution is to maintain the profit margins of intimacy arbitrage. Men marginalize prostitution not out of the desire for control that feminists love to project upon them, but as a way of rationalizing sunk costs; and "decent" women marginalize prostitution purely as an anti-competitive measure, for the labor of being a decent human being is twice as arduous should you be identified as a woman.

P.S. Protip: it's completely possible to have sex without emotional attachment. What trips people up is that participants must decide upon that from the start, and should never offer or request said emotional attachment for the duration of the encounter(s).

Unfortunately, we are animals most of the time. Starved ones. Should the bait be proferred, it is likely to be taken - automatically, against participants' better judgements. Beware.
Back when I was active in academia, our publishers were reluctant to print source code or even repository links (that was largely before GitHub) but they could still share a paper source on demand. If you reference someone else's paper and want to quote some formula, it is easier and less error prone to copy rather than retype.

At that point I thought about making a TeX interpreter so one could easily "run a paper" on their own data to see if the papers claims hold. As it turned out, people often write the same formula in multiple ways and to make a TeX interpreter you'd have to specify a "runnable" subset and convince anyone to use that subset instead of what they got used to. So the idea stalled.

In a few years, publishing a GitHub link along the paper became the norm, and the problem disappeared. At least in applied geometry, people do replicate each other results all the time.
who knows.

given that the whole dark alliance branch exists and essentially turned the game into something totally different it's not like the precedent for radical change hasn't already been set.

also phrasing 'cash grab' in association to any 'Wizards of the Coast' IP as if it were any kind of surprise seems to be missing their whole business tactic for the past 20+ years.

Chromium forked Blink from WebKit, which was forked by Apple from KHTML. We have a fork (or spork: https://twitter.com/BrendanEich/status/1687485972164837377). We could cope if Google were to repudiate Chromium (and violate the FOSS licenses on the sources).
There's a wealth of things to take issue with in this article, but I'll restrain myself to an early objection based on an adage I've tried to, over the past months, adhere to, for by own betterment.

> Streaming technology is environmentally destructive, resulting in the release of up to 1.57 million metric tons of carbon per day.

This article links to another by the New Yorker that repeats this claim, but never substantiates it - instead it immediately goes on a tirade about the Chinese government's genocide of Uighurs and child slavery (and then calls Spotify's royalty rates "no less problematic"). So - let us be brutally honest - this claim is probably a lie. Fabricated. And failing that, stupendously unfair.

Most important to me is the very utilitarian observation that it is simply not economical nor constructive to concern yourself with this. And concerning yourself with things like this, the belief that listening to music on the internet - really, that simply using a computer - is "killing the planet" or otherwise "environmentally destructive", comes from this fetish people have developed to find the worst in absolutely everything to ensure they're as unhappy as possible. It's why the news can only ever hark on about Ukraine, or climate change, or corruption or coups or genocides in a country you can't even point to.

There's always something wrong. You're never doing enough. You need to donate, you need to take shorter showers. You need to stop listening to music, but you shouldn't buy plastics! Oh and there's microplastics in your blood and AI is taking over the world.

But it does. not. matter. It's such a stupid decision for people to worry themselves over any and everything, and it's extremely unhealthy.

The problem with this logic is that it only sort of works. I know a lot of executives personally and most of them are not high skill at all. Most of them aren't even very bright.

I guess you could make the case that their primary skill - reading the story that the people who promoted them wanted/needed to hear - is in fact what's being rewarded, but it has nothing to do with their applicability to high leverage work at all.
Because empty octets of an IPv6 address can be elided (1:0:0:0:0:0:0:2 can be represented as 1::2) the regular expressions are actually quite painful. I wrote a library for JavaScript called `ip-address` that can generate regular expressions to find all forms of a specific address. Here's the regular expression for all forms of 1::2:

/(?=^|[^A-Fa-f0-9:]|[^\w\:])((0{0,3}1):(|(:0{1,4}){1,5}|(0{1,4}:){1,5}|(0{1,4}:){5}0{1,4}|(0{1,4}:){1}:(0{1,4}:){3}0{1,4}|(0{1,4}:){2}:(0{1,4}:){2}0{1,4}|(0{1,4}:){3}:(0{1,4}:){1}0{1,4}|(0{1,4}:){4}:(0{1,4}:){0}0{1,4}|(0{1,4}:){1}:(0{1,4}:){2}0{1,4}|(0{1,4}:){2}:(0{1,4}:){1}0{1,4}|(0{1,4}:){3}:(0{1,4}:){0}0{1,4}|(0{1,4}:){1}:(0{1,4}:){1}0{1,4}|(0{1,4}:){2}:(0{1,4}:){0}0{1,4}|(0{1,4}:){1}:(0{1,4}:){0}0{1,4}):(0{0,3}2))(?=[^\w\:]|[^A-Fa-f0-9:]|$)/i

Fear, of course.

Abroad in the night, the human world grows tenuous, and one's connection to it likewise. Most people can learn to live in that, but you never feel perfectly at home with it. Nor should you; there's nothing like it to dispel the comfortable, foolish illusion that the world belongs to us, and not the other way around.

Humans are better, I find, for a little fear of that sort. It makes us stick closer together than we do otherwise, gives us more incentive to look for the good in one another; camaraderie comes much easier, and that is part of what I miss. Both those jobs were customer service, and even the people on the phone were different: stranger certainly, sometimes desperate, but almost never spiteful like the day shift often was. The sun revolves around every narcissist, of course, but those excepted there is less pretense in all of us in night.

Its very strangeness is the rest of what I miss. I find it frightful too, of course, but never because it's trying, which counts for a lot with me after living so long with humans. There's a lot to appreciate in that strangeness, for anyone who understands fear well enough to feel and not be driven by it - to know the difference between being afraid and being made to feel afraid.

There's a wild and ancient beauty in the night to which nothing wrought by human hands compares, and an inescapable reminder that beyond all the frantic work of busy human hands, something vast beyond our comprehension still abides: the world itself, from which we never stop fleeing, despite that we neither can nor need.

I hope whatever of this species emerges from the other side of the next few hundred years understands that better than today's version does - I can't imagine how they'd fail to, at any rate. I think they'll better understand the night than most of us can, too. Maybe by then the consequences of our lethal hubris will have far enough abated they'll even have some time to enjoy it, the way I did decades ago when I last lived a nighttime life.

The current model works very well for the billion dollar corporations, largely because they're the only ones who can afford to follow the FDA requirements.

> And if you don't think drastically reducing the barriers to entry for products in to the us would make us less safe I'm certainly open to hearing how.

Most of the barriers to entry are more bureaucracy than safety, and the net effect is fewer medicines are available and those that are are more expensive. The greatest success story of the FDA is thalidomide, which killed or seriously injured around 100,000 worldwide over 50 years ago; meanwhile about 45,000 americans die every year from not being able to afford medical treatment, and that only accounts for medicines that made it through the approval process, not those where it wasn't economical to try.
C++ is one of the most successful programming languages in history. It makes all new languages look like a drop in the ocean comparatively.

Millions of professional C++ developers work on large scale mission critical C++ code that control everything from airlines to Fortune 500 companies to cars to nuclear reactors to military hardware. And new C++ projects are started every single day.

Most developers have zero clue on what it takes for a programming language to be successful in the real world. And they have zero clue on how much $ and time it would take to rewrite the billions of lines of C++ code out there that runs the world.

I worked on Google Maps monetization, and then on Maps itself.

Monetization was a dismal failure. I don't know how well they're doing now, but Maps was a gigantic money-loser, forever. I'd be a little surprised if it didn't still lose money, but maybe less. I don't what those "pin ads" cost, but I'd bet it's way less than a search ad.

If you don't believe that, that's fine. "What about indirect revenue?" you ask? Google consciously does not want to estimate that, because such a document could be discovered in patent litigation. As it is, there are tons of patent lawsuits about Maps, and the damage claims always tried to get at Ads revenue, because Maps revenue was nil.

Caveat: I could be way out of date here. I've been retired a while now.

As for the UX: "enshittification" and big-company bureaucracy describe it pretty well.

Canada has a pretty independent press already (15th in the World Press Freedom Index). CNN and Fox News present narratives optimized for engagement by a U.S. audience. The only time they would present anything at all about Canada is when it would interest a U.S. viewer, and as U.S. audiences understand pretty much nothing about Canadian culture and politics, the coverage is rarely insightful or informative to a Canadian audience.
Your rebuttal doesn't really address the substance of my point, but to put a fine point on it, "It's a crime, therefore it isn't speech" isn't a good argument - if anything it demolishes your own position that speech should never be restricted by government.

The very substance of your original argument is that the power to restrict these things is inherently dangerous, yet you don't seem to apply that standard in current cases where the acts of communication are criminalized.

Accordingly, your original argument falls flat based upon your own argument; the government can criminalize some speech and you don't seem to have an issue with it where it's obviously pro-social to do so.

So, again, work a little harder on refining the original position - the absolutist approach of complete governmental restriction doesn't exist in real life.

If you want to try redefining speech to only include vocal discussion between two people (which very much is not what freedom of speech entails), you'd still fall flat on almost all of the fraud related restrictions mentioned above in my previous post.

Anyways, that's all from me on the topic, the substance of the reply ignoring literally every area of nuance and actual productive conflict is just nauseating. It's like watching some tech guy tell a banker how bonds should work.
