Fair use of trademarks is pretty nitpicky. Most policies say that the trademark can't be the first word, so for example "ARM Reversing" is not allowed but "Reversing ARM code" would be allowed.
Do you live in Berlin? I do, right near Bahnhof Neukölln. I live or have lived in many of the areas you list, and have spent time in all of them. Neither myself, nor my wife, nor my friends have any fear about these areas, even if there are sometimes people we would avoid (like any big city). None of these areas are no-go zones for the police, the police are all over the place.

Alexanderplatz being a no-go zone? Are you joking? It’s full of tourist traps and has some pickpockets potentially, but that’s because they are popular areas full of people.

The gang rape in Gorlitzer is horrible, but is by no means a regular occurrence.

Your entire description reads like a farcical joke. I don’t expect to convince you of anything, but for anyone else reading this, it’s a laughable description.
> In fact, I've never even heard an unreasonable defense.

I suspect like many things, there was some logic to the introduction. But it's just gotten to really batshit levels that there is probably nothing to do but stop the practice.

As I understand it, some of the origins were that for debts owed to the government, with the person not present in the country, it was much more practical to target assets that may exist within the country than try and get the individual.

Even in the introduction in the criminal context, I sort of understand the logic. In criminal organizations, there are likely people profiting a lot, that have engineered enough doubt that proving their connection to the beyond a reasonable standard is so difficult. But meeting a preponderance of the evidence standard in the civil context to reclaim those assets I can understand the argument.

So I think there are some bad and weak arguments, but they certainly don't outweigh what's happening now.

I think one of the worst argument I heard for not returning the money, was the police department wasn't able to follow the judges order, because they deposited the money into a bank account and transferred to another agency. And they'll never be able to find the exact same bills again that they gave to the bank, so are unable to follow the court order to return the money they took to the rightful owner.
Is that true?

What if the consumer action was poisoning the dataset ?
If Twitter was as much a treasure trove of user data that Elon thinks it is, then why is Twitter's ad targeting so much worse than Facebook's and Instagram's?

‘Friday is just a dead day’: how a summer perk became a year-round staple
What this needs is a mitm service that gives shortened/custom urls like https://prom.os/paw_patrol_biscuits that redirect to the vendor's site, and when the promo/limited-run is over the url can be 'turned off' in a control panel and then default back to a 'This promotion has ended, but visit <vendors general site>' for more information on products' or such.

I guess it'd be hard to get companies to use such a service, except for situations that cause product issues like this one we're seeing.
I live in west TN; it wouldn't be hard to find 100,000 acres of former farmland to buy around here. could probably restrict it to "fields within 1km of major TVA transmission lines" and still fill it out pretty easily.

I'm not sure what they'll farm under them do otherwise to keep the subtropical jungle from eating them. They put real effort into keeping the transmission line right of way clear; those are still on average full of more young forest than solar panels could tolerate.

> your statement that your extensions are not malware is not verifiable.

Well, my "malware" had its 5th anniversary earlier this year. So I must be one of the world's greatest malware authors.

Not to mention that I scammed a bunch of members of the tech media into publishing recommendations of my malware.
If it can inspect the traffic, why would it demand I turn off DoH? I could understand one or the other, but both?

Hey, author of https://damus.io here (ios twitter-like nostr client)

> First, I want a replication strategy. Nostr messages get lost in time, and many of the clients end up just blasting an entire message history at your client. Because there's no clue in the protocol how messages are related other than a timestamp this also means you can fake timestamps and write fake messages in the future or back in time

You can do this with email or git too and it doesn't make it any less useful. I actually like the backdating feature as it allows you to copy your account to a new key.

As for replication, at damus I am working on https://github.com/damus-io/nostrdb which is intended to be a "sqlite for nostr". I plan on implementing set-reconciliation based syncing with strfry relays (using a technique called negentropy), so that replication is very efficient.

> Second, I don't like that many Nostr clients are using the same signing key for messages as they do for lightning transactions.

This is simply not true.

> Third, someone needs to delete some of these NIPS. The arms race to make Nostr as complex and difficult as possible to implement is not going to do much for the ecosystem in the long run. In the beginning Nostr was simple to implement from scratch, they should get back to that!

All nips are optional except for nip01, you can ignore them all for the most part.

> Fourth, it needs a dedicated blob store protocol. Yah, I know IPFS isn't great but someone should come up with something that is simple and works.

It does not, in the same way email or git or any text-based protocol doesn't need a dedicated blob store. These are separate concerns and they should be a separate protocol. nostr clients can of course integrate and link to any blob store it wants via new NIPs that describe this. I believe there are a few already in the nips repo.

Cheers!
You are conflating copyright and plagiarism rules at school. Copyright stems from the copyright act, plaigarism rules stem from the academic code of conduct. Any similarity between the two is coincidental. What a teacher can accept or not accept has nothing to do with copyright.

And nobody is ever in "legal trouble" for a copyright violation in a typical school assignment... because unless the student work is publically published, the owner of the copyright is never going to know what you turned into your teacher. It's a tree falling in the forest, with nobody present to hear it.

the classic "aha, if you're really so oppressed, why don't you take productive action about it (in a society where all avenues of productive action have been foreclosed)" to you strategy

kinda like asking a black man what he thinks should be done about jim crow, if he's so smart. the tactic really does go way back

like yea oppressive power structures systematically foreclose, neuter, and dismantle any means that might be used to counteract or escape their effects, that's why they're oppressive power structures.

it’s galaxy-brain stuff to be asking the people inside to just wave a wand and dismantle it all, like I guess you think they could have just done it all along and simply chose not to? and “self-oppression” is of course a very real narrative that is pushed in these situation, it’s really your fault you can’t escape!
I don't know how to balance that conflict, but I wonder if it would be possible to have a web configurator that lets you pick the features you want and then compiles the executable.

> Are you capable of doing physical work for a living, or (to be blunt)

Maybe, but it would take more time than I’d like to get into shape. I do hear a lot about trade work, but the only jobs I ever see for it want highly experienced people. I even see entry level/experienced jobs ask for a year or two of experience (yeah it’s a big meme, but like I mentioned, I get rejected for fast food/retail jobs that are ostensibly entry level)
I'm leaning in agreement with you. Squid also reproduce a lot faster than octopus (market squid lifespan is 9 months and they die after reproduction) so I recommend folks save their cephalopod recipes for squid.

I've run into several parking places recently where you had to pay using the app, but where there was no mobile signal on any of the networks. Cue a lot of annoyed motorists.

On the other hand we (from London) were visiting Santa Barbara and had to use an app to park, and I was amazed that the app (ISTR it was PayByPhone) let me use the rental car with my UK login and billed me the right amount with no hassle.
The real socialist shadow governments are local police departments.
All the degenerate token-fueled web3 hype of 2021 sold a bunch of dreams about decentralization and owning your social graph to unsuspecting retail and then delivered nothing but rugpulls and bankruptcy letters.

Meanwhile, nostr built a system people actually use on top of open protocols. No tokens, no blockchains. Only notes and other stuff transmitted over relays.
The problem is that network architecture of Nostr is different from Twitter (and from Mastodon, for that matter). One of the core ideas of the Nostr protocol is getting rid of the idea of "logging in" or "creating an account" on any given relay, and as such it needs some way to reliably identify which posts were made by a particular user.

That's where PKI comes into play: it's not layered on top of a login system, it's a complete replacement.

The no-foreign-traits-on-foreign-types rule and the terrible ergonomics behind the newtype "pattern" combine to make one of the worst development experiences I've ever seen in a language. It basically means you can only use one large library, ever. (With caveats.) For example, if I'm writing a game, I include a math library and pull in a Vec3 type, then add Vec3 as a member to all my objects, and then later I want to pull in a serialization library that defines, for ex, a Serializable trait, I can't, unless:

1. I write my own Vec3 class, not fun.

2. I write my own serialization library, could be fun depending on who you are but surely a waste of time.

3. I make a newtype, implement Serializable on it, find-and-replace all Vec3s with my own SerializableVec3, fix about 500 errors one by one by adding .0 everywhere, implement wrappers for all the Vec3 methods I want to use, rinse and repeat for every other foreign type I want to serialize.

4. Hope the math library and the serialization library know each other and the math library implements all the traits you need. In practice this is what happens, but this makes a weird situation where serde is the de facto standard/monopoly because it is literally impossible to use anything else. Which may be fine for now, serde is the standard precisely because it's so extensible, but if you ever want to use another library with traits, well you're SOL and it's back to step 3.

How they managed to ship a language with dev ergonomics this bad is beyond me. Especially when the solution is so simple. Allow foreign traits on foreign types for executable projects only. Put it behind a compiler flag for all I care. -fallow-foreign-traits-I-dont-care-if-this-breaks-things. Just let me implement my damn traits, the current state is ridiculous.
If an extension can load and interpret new code on the fly, that code cannot be vetted by human beings.

Hey everyone! Super excited to launch this early release on producthunt and gather feedback. Repodex is an app you install on your git repo that aims to speed up engineering teams by automating some of the tasks that eat up a lot of their time (bug fixes, refactors, tech debt, etc.)

It can find bugs and generate code to fix them. It can review PRs. It can also integrate with slack and be spoken to like a remote teammate.

Let me know what you think! https://www.producthunt.com/posts/repodex

>it has undeniable downsides but as a society we are now feeling what happens when a huge proportion of the population no longer experiences the cognitive upsides they used to get from nicotine.

You don't need to inhale burnt tobacco to get nicotine, and there are plenty of other ways to get stimulants into your body; patches, teas, etc. and society is still consuming a shit-ton of stims; ain't been to an empty coffeeshop since COVID.

vaping, while shown to be not great for you, is also still not as awful as inhaling tons of smoke, and can deliver the nico just as well.

and it is the smoke that is the problem -- firefighters who handle a lot of cases often have lung cancer rates far higher than the rest of the population.
Fork has been hammered to hell and back over the last 7 years, though no major crashes. Not an issue so far, nor are there any reported issues (Niner RDO carbon fork) with anyone else using it.
They often do block content from the people you have explicitly followed/subscribed to.

But suppose they write a generic algorithm that tries to show people what it think they will like. Then they find that some people like sexiness and political memes from The Other Tribe, so they modify the algorithm to not show those things to people even if it's what they want to see. Clearly and intentionally censorship.

You could even plausibly argue that not allowing the user to substitute an algorithm of their own (or one of their choosing from an independent third party) is censorship, if the only way to receive the data on that platform is through their algorithm which will not show you information that you want.
My favorite time on Hacker News was reading all the quasi-fortune tellers and intellectuals say his $44B bid for Twitter was never going to go through, either through his withdrawal or being rejected by the board. They were so set in their hubris that the only debate was whether the SEC was going to sue him after the bid inevitably fell through.
https://visualping.io does a nice similar job and is free for moderate personal use.
Odd. The link and post it references says this:

This makes sense if you consider the new API price gouging. Much easier to attract those interested in training on twitter data if it is explicititly allowed.

In other words, the biscuits need more shortening.
It could also be argued that the Twitter firehose requires substantial RLHF, de-biasing and moderation controls because of its colloquial nature.
Holy shit this is hilarious
Tell me, is it a sound security architecture that allows extensions like that to read and write to every web page I will ever see? Or perhaps that is a desperate hack to get'er done and there may be a safer way to implement that kind of thing?

Sure, Google wants to architect things so that ad blockers as we know them now aren't really feasible. But I think that we can conceded that Google has a good point in saying these world-read-write-anything extensions are not good for us.

The problem is the Bauhaus was school of education not a movement. Bauhaus was totally focused on trying to figure out how not to lose humanity in the machine age.

The Foundation program that was developed for first year students at the Bauhaus is the same Foundation program that I went through in 1987 at my Art university.

Individual instructors had all sorts of ideas that were bananas. The resulting curriculum has stood the test of time for training young minds to deal with new materials and experiences.

I see design as the philosophical use of resources. One can create any aesthetic values one wants. The ultimate design measure from my point of view is the extent the artifact represents a waste of resources.
This can be fixed simply: require police and the federal government to cover legal fees when successfully recovering stolen property, require them to additionally pay penalties to the victims that match the late payment penalties for fines and taxes.

Finally, require all the, ahem, proceeds of this theft to be set aside for paying the above.

That removes the profit motive and adds substantial downside to bogus theft.
It doesn’t. It’s not an attack on the programming languages. It’s just that they have a sweet spot for using old ass versions which might or might not have known vulnerabilities and they don’t care about updating it.
