> He didn't have to answer questions or give them passwords

Section 49 of the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 requires that if you know the information required and refuse to provide it, you can be sentenced to a maximum of 2 years imprisonment.

However, the notice must be given properly in writing.

So, while these officers perhaps were deceitful in asking verbally for passwords rather than giving a written notice, the meaning of what they were saying was still correct - there is a legal requirement to hand over passwords.
How do you run essentially a commercial business as non-profit? Hosting has cost inherent and those have to be paid for. Either by advertising which won't work in this case or by subscriptions or donations. And I don't think there is enough donations...

My understanding is that Schedule 7 applies at points of entry to the UK, where you have limited rights even as a citizen.

Looks like the soap uses salicylic acid, glycolic acid, and tretinoin: https://www.washingtonian.com/2023/10/11/a-ninth-grader-from...

Those ingredients looked familiar to me from work I’ve done with skin health products. They’re cosmetic product ingredients. A quick ChatGPT check:

- Salicylic acid is a beta-hydroxy acid commonly used in acne treatments and exfoliating products. It penetrates oil glands to unclog pores and has anti-inflammatory properties.

- Glycolic acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid mainly used for skin exfoliation and anti-aging. It helps remove dead skin cells and can improve the appearance of fine lines.

- Tretinoin is a prescription-strength retinoid used for treating acne and signs of aging. It promotes skin cell turnover and boosts collagen production.

So, if this $0.50 soap bar gets to market, I assume it will quickly be snapped up by people looking to generally keep their skin young and healthy, because that’s a hell of a lot cheaper than other products containing those ingredients.
Big Tech needs a reckoning.

They are stagnant because they outsource almost all real R&D to startups they can buy only after they've done the hard work of proving success

I know it's not a monopoly per se, but it's anti-competitive and there's too many walled gardens
These are all different things.

Subscription vs one-time payment (+ maintenance/updates payments) are two ways off offering to pay.

Freemium just means offering a free tier to let users try the software and offering a way to upgrade to unlock features on paid plans.

B2C vs B2B is business to customer vs business to business.

SaaS is software as a service, as opposed to say installing an application on premise in a data center.

A startup could be offering a fremium B2C SaaS for example, or a freemium B2B SaaS.

Well, no. Let's not pretend that Apple is (or was) the only player in the mobile phone space. Had mobile flash actually provided Android with a tangible advantage, it wouldn't have died. Adobe couldn't provide a decent experience on desktop, couldn't provide a decent experience on any of the non-Apple mobile platforms they supported, but suddenly the downfall of flash was Apple's responsibility? We really did see what flash could do on mobile and it wasn't great, there was no reason for Apple to put more lipstick on that pig.

Dunno about Android, but crashy web sites weren't really a thing I've ever had to deal with on iOS (or BB10).
Noces are a non-starter for me.

You cite trivial issues such as setting flags on a cookie, then go on to require checking nonces for uniqueness. You know what most people would do? They would ignore the expensive nonce check.

This would turn this into an expensive client generated opeque token. How would you handle sites setup with sub domains?

Reading between the lines, it sounds like you want a alternative session method so legislation can force disallowing all cookies and tracking, or blanket ignoring them client side.

And pointing out the dire straights of Palestinians is different from supporting Hamas. The same way critizing Israel as a nation not the same thing as being anti-semitic.

I mean ads from the Israeli ministry of defence. But as the saying goes "One death is a tragedy, thousands are a statistic".

> They literally tried making everything proprietary. It took the entire EU and a targeted law to make them adopt the USB-C.

Erm no, my MacBooks have had USB-C for a while, as USB-C is better for data transfer.

Their proprietary version for phones predates USB-C, because it was far better than the alternative, and it presumably added competition that meant USB-C needed to exist and be invested in. That won't happen again, or at least in the EU markets.
>Per capita does not matter, totals do. Would it make a difference if Switzerland stopped emitting CO2 completely and no one else changes anything.

Yes, in the UK you can be detained for 36 hours without the right to a lawyer, or 48 hours for suspected terrorism cases. During that time, you can be questioned, and if you do not answer, then your lack of answer can be used by a court to infer guilt ("why did you not say you were just out walking your dog when first asked?").
variable length instructions == CISC is not quite a correct equivalence.

The compressed 'C' extention is designed to re-use a lot of the existing decode infrastructure. On RV32 the C instructions are a strict subset of the full length instructions, so at least on RV32 it is very light weight, and it adds barely any logic to a core. It's almost always worth it to turn on C extensions versus making the cache bigger or trying to speed up main memory.

In my experience I-cache pressure is real, especially on lightweight implementations that don't have multiple levels of cache hierarchy and huge amounts of associativity to reduce the impact of an instruction cache miss.

I have played with both C and non-C variants, and also played with compiler tuning that saves code size versus 'performance' (which includes loop unrolling and thus more I cache misses). Generally smaller code size is better for power and system complexity, while keeping performance at par. Of course if you aren't as restricted on power or complexity (as is the case on a high end CPU), the calculus is different.

This kind of simplicity to me embodies the heart of RISC. If your CPU is hitting cache lines more often, you don't have to speculate as deep, don't have to re-order as much, thus less logic, less complexity, less power, higher clock rates and fewer side channels.

On the other hand, I suppose if you are already committed to deep speculation and out of order, compressed instructions might extract a disproportionate cost, maybe less so in decode and more so in precise exception handling and in tricks like register renaming.

What I don’t understand, how is it considered resistance? I was under the impression they were the aggressor, no? Why would the aggressor be in a position of resistance? Would this be akin to claiming Russia is in “armed resistance” after throwing the first punch? Aren’t those two things at odds with each other?

> I'm kinda surprised that modern parents consider watching youtube a worse activity than gaming.

Kids have a different relationship with algorithms wherein they don't recognize they're being targeted with low quality stuff, watch a bit of it, and start a feedback loop.

I can "fix" my YT recommendations within a day if I went exploring and started getting fed stuff I don't want, but I find younger kids are happy to just fire through it as though it's TikTok.

Generally they end up with very low quality click bait very quickly. I'd rather my son have at least a tinge of mental engagement if he's going to have a screen.
>The women that control clothing decisions are a small minority of all women.

The apparel/garment industry is highly fragmented with a low barrier-of-entry. It's not as "top-down" as your sentence seems to be implying. There are plenty of how-tos on the web explaining how to turn your clothing designs into products using contract manufacturers in China etc. That's why amateur Youtube influencers with no experience in the garment industry can "launch" their own clothing lines.

It seems that if "women's pants with bigger pockets" was desired by enough potential buyers to be profitable, some entrepreneurs would already have taken advantage of that arbitrage opportunity and become rich.

I agree with the sibling comment[1] that women may prefer bigger pockets if that one characteristic was isolated -- but they also prioritize other aspects such as the "look" the pants that end up forcing smaller pockets. Women's clothing is often a prime example of form-over-function (as a deliberate tradeoff) rather than function-over-form.

In my experience with SSRI drugs, they mask the issue by blunting the emotional response itself. Much like removing a broken leg under aesthetic, rather than setting it and casting it.

not saying it is easy - but 'non-profit' is not 'non-revenue' - there are many big non-profits with thousands of employees and billions in revenue - i.e. MassGeneral medical system for example: 16 billion in revenue and 20,000 employees.
Individual women have very little control over the clothing that they can buy.

As an exercise, go to any mall or shopping center and try to find a pair of women's jeans that meet the following criteria:

1. Decent quality material, is not deliberately pre-destroyed
2. Functional pockets, but not outlandish 90s style cargo pockets
3. Cut with a straight lower leg, not flared or tapered "skinny", and a proportional leg overall, not extra-wide or skinny
4. A waist size that doesn't assume the wearer is an athlete with a flat stomach (remember, women's pants are sized by number, not by waist x length), even in a "curvy" fit
5. Is not purpose-designed hiking gear

If you can find anything meeting all 5 criteria, I will pay you a $50 finder's fee and consider booking a trip to visit your fair city, because my wife would be thrilled to know they exist.

Revealed preference only ever makes sense when interpreted as preference among available options, not preference among all possible options.

> Evidence suggests that any demand is a vocal minority

The demand for any one individual improvement is probably a relatively vocal minority. There are so many busted messed up attributes about women's clothing that it's hard to choose any one of them to be vocal about. So the overall effect is diluted.

That, and, a lot of women are probably just used to carrying their stuff in a handbag and don't even realize that decent pockets could be an option. Likewise for the unnecessary forced selection between super skinny and super wide jeans.
10 years ago that was fairly accurate, and I've been using that conversion ever since visiting around that time. Surprising to see the conversion rate move so much.
It feels like part of it is a cultural issue. People in the startup space largely seem uninterested in starting companies they will run their whole life

Simple text-based structured data format (something like YAML) with possibility to embed binary would be the way to go IMHO. And of course one should be able to show graphics in the terminal.

> Another big issue for Application Class systems IIRC -- unrelated to all this -- is that I don't think hardware implementing C can actually run binaries compiled without it.

I believe this is incorrect? I believe RV{32,64}-with-C is simply a superset of RV{32,64}-without-C. Now I have only implemented RV32I, so I'm not that familiar with the C extension or other extensions for that matter, but in my digging through the various RV specs, I haven't found anything which suggests that implementing C requires breaking code compiled without the use of C.

Do you have any details?
It's more about the mode of consumption than the content itself. The same way one might argue reading a book is better than listening to the audio book because it requires marginally more focus since it's an active vs passive activity. Now add screen time into the mix.
Apple has always been an asshole when it comes to codec support.

VP9 on Safari? Sure, on desktop. On mobile? Oh yeah, only via WebRTC(why???).

Want to import FLACs into Apple Music? Nope, only inferior ALAC is supported for lossless.

AV1? Only just added to iPhone 15 Pro series (not in 15 cause old SoC) and still not on Macbooks.

HEVC? Oh yeah, of course we use it as HEIC for photos and support HEVC playback in Safari, how could we not?
Under Section 7 of the Terrorism Act you can be detained for up to an hour without access to legal advice. That's very likely why they were so diligent in keeping it to an hour.

Obviously, otherwise you wouldn't look at a thread about women's fashion on a start up tech forum. Everyone here clicked it since they want to see what start up tech people think about women's fashion.

> But this essay reads more like a class warfare piece than a good argument for why techno optimism is bad.

IMHO Karpf is saying we had lots of techno-optimism starting in the 1990s (cf. Wired), but in the 2020s we now the advertiser-monitoring complex: so why is Andreeson surprised that there's push-back against tech? Why is Andreeson surprised that folks are expressing concern at possible negative side-effects of tech?

I think this paragraph is a good summary of Karpf:

> Economic inequality does not solve itself. Markets are not perfect, self-correcting mechanisms. At one point, Andreessen writes “The market naturally disciplines (…) Markets prevent monopolies and cartels.” I take this as evidence that he doesn’t read any actual economists. One could make an argument that the 90s techno-optimists did not yet know any better (we were just trying global capitalism for the first time, maybe it’d work great!). But, for a Silicon Valley set that likes to pretend at being hardcore Bayesian rationalists, there is something downright comical about how they have managed, across the past thirty years, not to update a single one of their priors.
Highbrow isn't the way to look at it. I think what books do, primarily, is make the brain work in a different way, because you're constructing a visual and perhaps audio interpretation of text. Which causes you to do a lot of world building yourself, whereas in Civilization it's the opposite.

Neither is better or worse but they're different forms of mental exercise.
We agree on the promise for sure! :)
In the UK there's the concept of a 'proscribed organisation', that is an organisation which is illegal and the promotion of that organisation is illegal.

Hamas is on the proscribed organisation list.

Here's the relevant legislation: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2000/11/section/12

And the list of proscribed organisations and a more accessible explanation of the law: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/proscribed-terror...

I think most people in the UK think of this law as being about the Troubles and banning the IRA, etc, but it looks like the list is mostly Islamic extremist groups now.

This law is very clearly being selectively enforced, as lots of people have "express[ed] an opinion or belief that is supportive of" Hamas in recent days, but the police aren't knocking at their doors. (Yet.)
To be fair. I have never really heard of pushing to master as a CI technique for git. You would push to your own publicly visible branch and some script would automatically attempt to merge into a CI branch unless there's merge conflicts in which case you get notified. Then as you add things you get notified if the whole thing is breaking and get made aware of upcoming issues.
I mean as a man who identifies as a man I prefer women’s jeans to men’s jeans because the fabric is lighter and less restricting. So I just buy women’s jeans the pocket size does not effect my purchase decision the comfort factor does. I imagine women could do the reverse if their purchase decision is based on pocket size.
>> enforcement can't actually compel you to do anything without a trip through the courts.

In theory, but there are so many exceptions that it isn't really a thing in practice. Driving a car? You have to identify yourself. Crossing a boarder? You are open to total inspection. Using a credit card, your transaction is open to inspection and you need to identify. Called as a witness? You have to participate by answering questions. You can even be imprisoned, for years, as a "material witness" without any hint of accusation. They sometimes do need a "trip through the courts" but that doesn't mean you are going to be part of that trip, or even know about it until after the warrants have been issued. The list of exemptions from the default rules allowing silence are so long as to make them meaningless.
The fact that they opened up the OS completely is such a shock in the corporate landscape we live in. I should buy one just for that, it's such a great move for the consumer and it's sad that we've come to expect the opposite.
Like many other things in world - it's not a binary yes or no. It's about what the judge or jury will believe. If you say you don't remember your password but they pull up logs and show that you have just used that password 3 hours earlier, then jury will almost certainly find you guilty, even if yes, there is absolutely no way to prove what the objective "truth" is.
Because my mother, and the last mentee I had, are both dark triad people and neither of them came close to CEO. It’s quite the opposite their behavior is self defeating and they accomplish little in life because it’s more like a disability.

They’re unable to experience empathy, are convinced others who do are just pretending and are foolish for pretending, and they prey on those that do for thrill of superiority at great personal cost. The feeling of superiority is only in their own mind as any objective observer would note that they’re harming themselves and coming across as weaker.
I feel something must be missing from this model. At face value, the abstract level summary implies that tissue remodeling and repair just... doesn't occur for females. That seems incredibly not plausible (in humans).

I'd be interested to see similar studies with different tissue donors (obviously human would be ideal... though getting a reasonable supply of healthy young-ish human ACLs is a sad thought). I can't help but wonder if choice donor (bunnys) are having an outsized influence on the results. Bunnys are famously r-selection. Maybe mommy bunnys just... get an especially raw deal in terms of tissue remodelling potential.

Also, the strain they measured in their ACLs seem high?? From what I understand human ACLs have a strain at breaking of 25-30%, so their observed strains (5-10% at 2MPa, 10-20% at 4MPA and 20-40% at 8MPa) seem... off.
True, let's call it Apartheid then, not much better unfortunately.
