Communism pretty explicitly involves a small gang of people, typically installed in power by a foreign invading army, who seize all the means of production, and then they forbid to all the rest of the population to ever own any kind of means of production, reducing them to serfdom.

Obviously, the gang that has seized all the means of production claims that in fact those means of production now belong to the entire population, but nevertheless the members of the gang are the only ones who manage all those means of production, supposedly because they are the most competent of all people and not because they are the servants or relatives of those who have seized the power by force, with foreign support.

First off, I don't think there's anything in the manifesto definition that constrains it to simple statements. I may disagree with the Communist Manifesto or the Unabombers manifesto, but I can acknowledge that they contain more than platitudes. Secondly, even if that were true, it's still reasonable to ask Andreessen to expound on those subtleties rather than essentially point to someone and say "what s/he said." Pointing to a list of names is not only lazy, but it completely skirts around the fact that a list that long is bound to have inconsistencies. It is completely reasonable to ask for clarification in terms of where his personal outlook lands. It's hard to understand that if someone thinks their points are relevant and important enough to be deemed a "manifesto" they would be unwilling to explain them in-depth. Even if I do "dig deeper" into his list of sources it only tells me his sources beliefs, not his own. If they can’t explain them further, it may be an indicator they aren’t very well thought out.

To circle back to just one example previously mentioned, in his manifesto, he quotes Smith in terms of the advantages of self-interest. Andreesen espouses the virtues of self-interest, but seemingly makes no mention of the "sympathies" Smith admits are necessary to temper the downsides of selfish behavior where behavior should be "judged that the interest of the great society of mankind would be best promoted". That feels like a very different takeaway than the way Andreessen quotes Smith in the manifesto. Andreessen actually makes the opposite point, namely that selfish behavior need not address shared humanity. So, when he mentions Adam Smith in his list of "Techno-Optimist" references, am I to assume he only condones the former, more limited (but popular) view of Smith? That would be a seemingly constrained viewpoint of a much more nuanced position. Maybe he has good reason to throw out that more nuanced perspective; only he can say. But a cynic might say he's cherry-picking to conform to his preconceived notions. I.e., one might conclude he's trying to make the facts fit his conclusion rather than the other way around. "Digging deeper" doesn't clarify his own principles; it just muddles them. That's why I'd prefer to hear it from him to elaborate beyond mere platitudes.
You sure are putting a lot of effort into comments effectively stating "you're out of luck, don't even bother." If that's your opinion, good luck to you. If that's genuinely the case, doesn't hurt to pull out all the stops to try to get some agency against corporate psychopathy. Your experience is not necessarily that of others.
> We're both materialists. Mine is a materialist position.

I'm not quite sure about you because you are using words like transcendence. ;-)
In my view the deep experience of the trip, what you call transcendence, is just another hallucination, just hallucination of meaning and understanding instead of simple images, sounds or sensations.
To exploit means to reap some benefit. If there's no profit, there's no exploitation, I guess. A profitable business is absolutely exploiting its workers, that's what exploit means.
There is no mechanism per-say, it's more of a bit space vs quality issue. You could think of MX4 with an 8 bit exponent scale as a 12 bit number if the block size is one, "MX12" with E10M1. You can share the scale with some error per element in a block, with that error going up as you increase the size of the block. As the block size is increased, the effective size per element goes down and the hardware implementation gets smaller/cheaper.
The current US Immigration system wasn't designed. It accidentally came together from a patchwork of individual programs and various bills modifying the rules.

There is political disagreement over what a new system should look like so there has never been enough agreement to completely overhaul the rules.
The reviews have been so universally negative on KSP 2 that I haven't bought it yet. Anything I'd say would be hearsay; you can go read the reviews yourself. My impression is it's standard enshittfication: some asshole MBA saw a company that wasn't as shitty as it possibly could be yet, so they bought it, fired/drove out the original team, and made a cheap-ass knockoff 2nd game hoping the laurels of the first would drive sales long enough for them to make some quick bucks before buzzing off to parasitize another company. The exact details may be different but it's basically the same story happening over and over and over and over and over in our dystopian cancerous capitalism. We can't have nice things anymore.

Yes, Bandcamp has been profitable for 13 years so this discussion is irrelevant.

Either things changed and Bandcamp suddenly was no longer profitable, which makes no sense, or the owners sold out for their own profit.
I did. That's ridiculous. A classic example of attempting to divert blame while saying, "don't like it? Make me stop."

But perhaps I'm wrong; if a similar confluence of policy and supply conspired to enable a similar scam that pushed programmer compensation ever upwards, would you say that the proper solution to that problem would also be tax policy?
If there are meant to be images, i didn't get any: otherwise very enjoyable and very spooky, too.
In my opinion, Python needs to have an urgent answer to the use of multiple cores. AMD just launched a CPU with 96 cores. Today the use on multiple cores is through the use multiprocess, which has many limitations. I understand that the multiple interpreters could come with something like Goroutines, but I still like the real multi thread option more.
I think it's more around a feature. we try to bundle them together. But I work on integrations so it's usually around an upgrade to an integration. new version or features that didn't make it in the first time.
The malicious certificate either won't have a SCT (which in itself would be highly suspicious and cause some clients to reject the certificate directly), or it will have one but it won't be recorded in the log.

In the latter case, the malicious certificate + any CT log issued after that certificate should have been included are evidence of the attack that is easily verifiable and would likely cause browsers to drop the (edit) CT log unless provided with a very plausible excuse that isn't "we complied with a court/gag order".

Also, this would require the police etc. to compel 2-3 different entities: The CA and two log operators (I think one of them could be the CA itself).

Using different logs than normal would stand out, so it'd typically be two specific log operators that would have to be compelled to hide this. The US may get lucky and have jurisdiction over all of them, other countries are much less likely to.
IMO title is clickbaity, as there seem to be other contributing factors (like declining viewership and quality).

Apple TV also tends to focus on quality over quantity, which I really like, so I raise my eyebrows a bit less when they cancel something that's only "OK."

Not that this is OK, I just don't like the title.
> Are breathalyzer tests used for marijuana, too? Or, is it just a field sobriety test?

I'm not sure either of those things would be very effective for marijuana. I think that they work fine for catching drunks, but maybe they simply aren't needed for other drugs. If you're driving is terrible enough, it shouldn't matter if you were on a drug, or over-tired, or texting when you should have been watching the road. If you're screwing up behind the wheel and the cops don't think you're safe to drive you should get a ticket and be driven home or arrested (depending on the circumstances).

I'm all for pulling dangerous drives off the roads, but it seems like a lot of people busted for DUI aren't pulled over because they were clearly a danger to others. They were pulled over for something like broken tail lights/headlights or outdated tags and only then do officers "smell" something or think someone's eyes are "red". I don't know if it's just harassment, power-tripping, or if police have quotas to meet, but it sometimes seems like once they have people pulled over, not matter the reason, they will look for any excuse to make an arrest.

> Internet Archive can never exist in the EU

British Library archives every publication, print and digital (including websites and social media posts), made in UK. They started to do this before exiting EU.

They don't just do it, but are obligated to do it.

> violating basic consumer rights, including the right to privacy

It's an openly published stuff that was openly available at some point and didn't require any credentials like login and password for access.

It's like pinning a piece of paper on a public lamppost and then complaining that someone wrote the text down and told others.

> and the right to be forgotten

By the way, did you forget about Herostratus already or should I remind you that you must bear no memory of this arsonist who burned Temple of Artemis?

> They make it intentionally difficult, and often impossible, to get content removed from their archive.

I did read about people sending GDPR requests and getting their personal data removed. I suspect that using just "I want this deleted" as a reasoning will result in rejection though.

British Library that operated in EU requires a legal reason for material removal, not just "I don't want this here".

> (especially if you don't control the domain)

It's reasonable to prove the right to manage the data first.

> Internet Archive should be illegal because it violates human rights.

Publishing stuff openly makes it available to everyone. 100% of people. Why do it and then be mad that someone remembered it?

I will rephrase one of the most widely used quotes in American movies: "You have a right to remain silent. Everything you post may be remembered".
It seems doubtful whether any employee genuinely excluded the possibility of the owner eventually leaving when they signed up. It's not some rare or obscure edge case.
My friend worked at a cheese plant and they would let him take home 5 blocks of cheese a day as long as it wasn't packaged (employees just wrapped it in wax paper). Pretty common across all types of manufacturing.
>The part I don't understand is why the prices still go up at the same time for my ammo despite it not running low.

Because many gun owners own multiple guns. (especially the ones who consume the most ammo) If they're short on ammo to shoot their AR-15 at the range this weekend, they're not going to just sit at home. They'll go to the range and shoot 30-06, .357, 9mm, etc.

Retailers know the score and can preemptively raise prices on their non-NATO rounds before they run out because they know their customers are going to be less price sensitive due to the shortage in NATO alternatives.

(in economic parlance, the different rounds are still "substitute goods" despite not working in the same firearms, so it would actually be pretty surprising if their prices WEREN'T correlated)
In this case it's because it's a security company, so in theory it's reputationally bad for them and could impact customer renewals and new sales.
I maintain `ansi-regex` on npm. Believe me when I say doing this with any amount of certainty is almost impossible.
True, the choice of slow or fast could dictate aisle/middle/window position, or the boarding groups could be set up as follows:

group 1) fast window seaters

group 2) fast middle seaters in rows with the window in group 1

group 3) fast aisle seaters with the other seats already boarded in groups 1 or 2

group 4) slow window seaters

group 5) everyone else
But just one company at a time. There's something to be said for heterogeneity.
they have to create a shortage in order to get H1b labor. So they refuse to negotiate on salary and complain to their lawmakers that they had these openings posted for X months and only filled Y% of them! we just can't find talent!
I'm one of the Typst devs and I do agree with you here. LaTeX has a lot of trouble with accessibility because it's hard to retain semantic information through layers of macros. However, I think we are in a better starting position because Typst is designed to revolve around semantic elements that the compiler can actually understand. We haven't gotten to it yet (there's lots to do), but we want to use this information both to output Tagged PDFs and for semantic HTML export. I guess we'll see how it turns out!
No, this is the socialist state you are describing, not communist.
The socialist state is the precursor to the communist utopia.

You might think it's impossible to implement communism(like I do), but get your basic facts right.
Moral collapse is a real danger. In Germany there were Nazis in the Eastern bloc the communist terror.

We need integrity and civic duty to protect ourselves from the next totaliterian regimes.

Security apparatus power trips and the erosion of privacy is the wet dream of the Stasi.

I think asking the question what would the Stasi do with this legislation helps warn every day people about the privacy risks.
> Fake job listings with rock bottom salaries so they can claim they can't find US workers, paying H1B people far below market value...

H-1B salaries are public [0], so it is easy to debunk this.

The minimum prevailing wage for the area and location is in place for this very reason.

> ... job-shopping in personal networks when someone loses an H1B job ...

If anything, this demonstrates that the current system is inhumane, and it should be more lenient towards H-1B holders.

My assumption was that Disney makes content for children, and children don't have the same quality standard as adults. The story only needs to be good enough so adults are willing to sit through it on repeat every day for a year.

For Disney, Star Wars exists to sell Lego sets and trips to the theme park.
> Why is it even possible to issue more than 1 certificate on the same domain via Let’s Encrypt? Shouldn't the previous certificate be revoked when a new one is issued?

First, you want to have to have some leeway so you don't need to rotate certs at exact second the old one expires

Second, you might want to have cert-per-server rather than cert-per-domain, as that's frankly easier to implement vs having common store for certs+key
Exhaustive Thoughts: Concerning the Life and Death of Zanis Waldheims
i doubt there will ever be a shortage of supplies to kill people and break things in the US. Even I doubt our politicians are incompetent enough to risk national security for Ukraine/Israel. If supplies get low they'll just fund more. If supplies get too low to guaranty US safety then they'll stop sending them to other nations.

Sure, but those documents you signed aren't going to guarantee that you can work remote forever (like parent comment suggested).

Having a true employment contract that guaranteed a duration of work with full remote work could only happen if such a contract stipulated consequences for breaking that deal.

The contract would have to say something like "If employer changes the nature of this agreement, employer agrees to pay 100% of owed salary for 12 months". Those employment contracts do exist but they're generally only for key employees, not your average remote worker.

Yeah, I understand the premise, but I would need to see a cost breakdown before I accept the claim that they needed significantly more money than they already got. Industry groups have a tendency to plead for handouts endlessly.

Wikipedia's misogyny is built into its policies, notably the pernicious effects of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOS:IDINFO and how they punish anyone who dissents from this.

So for example, per this policy, it's impossible to rewrite https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dana_Rivers to point out the angle of male violence against women, despite there being sources that exist discussing this, because it's forbidden by policy to refer to this male as a male or use sources that describe him as a man. Instead, the pretence that this is the crime of a woman has to be maintained.
Also here are some real solutions to the H-1B program so I'm not accused of just sharing a sob story:

1. Offer a credible path to permanent residency: employers can pay less to H-1B visa holders because they know those employees have no real way out of the system. If H-1Bs could self-sponsor merit-based green card applications after, say, 2 years on the job, the market would naturally solve the wage gap. My employers delayed my green card application until the very last minute so that I would never consider quitting for a better, non H-1B job.

2. Minimum salary threshold: avoids blatant misuse of the program by companies that are effectively "offshoring" semi-unskilled labor to immigrants.

3. No lottery, unlimited applications: increasing the cap can be balanced by the minimum salary threshold.

4. Self-sponsorship for entrepreneurs: let me start a company in the US and give me, I don't know, 2 years to show some threshold of revenue, scale or profitability. If I can hit call it $500k in revenue, pay my own salary, and/or hire 10 people in 2 years, surely I should be allowed to stay? And if I can't, just ask me to leave? You can easily find me if I own a company, I'm not "undocumented"... The EB-2 NIW green card path already has some of these features in that you can provide a business plan and sponsor yourself for a green card, but that process takes years and you can't have a regular visa (even a tourist visa!) once you have applied for the green card. Which means the applicant needs to stay in the US without traveling abroad at all and not work for 2 years, which is tantamount to making them an illegal immigrant.
Did that, can confirm.

For other more sensible reasons but still.
The last numbers I saw put the performance penalty of no-GIL at under 10%, so both are still on the table since Python has a lot of single-threaded performance left to recover. You can get both a much faster-than-current Python in single-threaded and real threads.
Your explanation made me dry-heave. UML > Java generation explains why their deployments seemed to contain obscene amounts of code that no one understood.
Surprisingly enough, H-1B visas are still assigned by lottery, which is arguably the worst imaginable way of doing it.
