As a data scientist, I’m happy that most data continues to be so terribly formatted and inconsistent as to break and confuse AI. But for how long that’s true, who knows!

Wikipedia actually/also inherited a lot of original "policy" from Ward Cunninghams WikiWikiWeb [1] . So right at the start, there's some overlap between wikis, design patterns, and agile development (from back when those terms actually meant something). A big lost opportunity in the history of wikipedia was to name the body of best practices the "Policy"/"Guideline"/"Essay" system, as opposed to "Community Patterns". In reality they do function closer to patterns anyway, which should be unsurprising seeing the original source(s).

There's also the whole way the software works. So that's twice that Wikipedia owes Ward Cunningham.

Well, that and the most important exchange of all of course:

> I live in a suburb and I walk to one of three nearby (< 10 min walk) grocery stores.

That is an outlier, though. Not only are suburbs less dense and, obviously, services are not as close, but county and/or city regulations across the US are notoriously anti mixed use developments, which make things even worse.
It's not that it has no use case. It's that it has a very niche use case.

Government were never going to allow some unfettered parallel monetary system. Governments invested a lot of political capital to monitor and control monetary flows (from reasons/excuses like fraud, terrorist financing, money laundering). No way there were gonna relinquish that power.

The overthrow of the shah was not "led by Khomeini". He did not return from exile in France until the shah was already gone. The shah was overthrown by a broad coalition that included, for example, also Iran's Communists. That broad coalition was then promptly sidelined by the religious faction once Khomeini returned and took advantage of the power vacuum.

Where land is free 5 floors is the optimum just because nobody will accept more than 3 without expensive elevators (it may not even be legal if you would accept it!). Most people are willing to pay a little bit more for a larger foundation just for less floors.

For car oriented locations 1 floor is optimal because the type of building that can handle more than one level of cars is so expensive you want to just build a large parking lot. (In theory the humans could be in taller buildings, but the space used for humans becomes a rounding error, and so you may as well avoid the expensive elevator)

As a broader term maybe, but you can't deny the religious connotation of the word, especially under a theocratic regime.

I wrote another comment, I guess I didn't post it. Perl made a run at being the standard middle layer language like bash 30 years ago. Learning perl back then was different than for people to learn today. Back then, everybody would have known bash, and awk, and grep, and sed, and perl borrowed the their syntax/semeantics so as soon as you started using it, it was like you alrady knew it. But perl followed a trajectory of being more complicated and less intuitive, so nobody wanted it to replace the shell, but it could have had things gone differently.

bash used to be "a shell" and "the shell" before graphical shells became the norm. Now bash is a REPL and programming language, and you need to run an "ANSI terminal shell" to access it :)

1. the command line has a syntax of it's own ("readline", generally standard across different shells, in this instance enforced by bash) and then

2. bash has its own language you can use, turing complete, with if-branches and loops, functions, some return values, global values (env) but also file i/o can be used as up-down argument passing, i/o and you can call readline over and over

3. there are certain conventions for "filters" that fit into the above framework, and they impose a small variety of contentions onto the command lines which nest within readline syntax.

it has warts, and I really wish there was a general desire to fix them, but I guess I'm going to have to want it enough to do it myself because i've had the same ideas for 30 yrs now and nothings been happening :(

last point, people aren't picking up on the importance some of us place on a language which can script that is the same language that is the command line. We don't want two languages, we want one. i.e. a language with a REPL

> when you have access to privileged information that others are willing to kill, in extreme cases, to obtain

The key phrase in my original statement is _in extreme cases_ - I'm not saying such a thing is common or even likely, I'm saying when you have a bunch of tech contractors with TS access all over the place advertising to the world that they have such access, there's no way other places haven't used that info in an attempt to intimidate someone, bribe, or force, one of those contractors into helping them get into a system or get information out. If a contractor was able to yank and leak the Prism documents with the same access, working for the same firm as some of the people in the group I linked to, then it's a massive risk that these people are being looked into and attempts are being made to flip them somehow. Might not be by killing people, but who's to say for sure.
And in the Led Zeppelin category, we have III with the spinning wheel that would reveal various pictures through holes in the album cover, and Physical Graffiti where the windows on the building would open to reveal stuff. And finally, In Through the Out Door where you could wipe the inside cover with a wet cloth to reveal the color.

Many albums used the large area for some kind of physical interaction. Sadly we lost that starting with cassettes.

Markets like Amazon are already full of people who will sell the exact same product with a computer generated brand name at slightly different markup. Even "trustworthy" brands do this kind of thing, and have for a long time. A system that knows everything about you (their goal) and tailors ads to you (or manipulates your ability to find offers) will inevitably converge on something that sells you the same thing, but at the maximum price you can be expected to be duped into.
You're being overly confrontational over a very minor issue. There are much more effective ways to advocate for the environment.

The link I posted below contains commentary on why they chose Rust over various other languages.

> Is it actually universally E2E or only some? I find some reddit posts implying it's some.

The E2EE on RCS is an extension to the protocol developed by Google. I don't know who has implemented it other than Google. So if a user is on a carrier that does their own RCS impl (many carriers piggyback off of Google's so they don't have to deal with it), they may not have E2EE.

> Do all RCS messages go through Google's servers?

If your carrier isn't using Google's implementation, and you're messaging someone on a carrier also not using Google's implementation, then it won't go through Google's servers. Otherwise, it will. In theory, this won't matter, assuming the E2EE is implemented correctly and securely. I don't know if an audit has been done, though.

There's also the case where one person is on a carrier using Google's impl, and the other is on a carrier that is not, and that carrier has not implemented E2EE. Then the message will go through Google's servers, and Google will be able to read it.

This is how I understand it, anyway; I don't intimately know the details of the protocol, so this might not be 100% correct.

The other user brought up that the cost to build a home has gone up substantially, and this response seems more like an addendum onto what you were already saying rather than a response to that. Just fyi. I think there is inherent truth to what you're saying as well, in that business decisions more often than not seem driven by the dangling carrot of short term profits. But there can be a multitude of reasons why the cost of a house is just out of reach to what we used to consider the "average middle class American."

>You're making the mistake of assuming the ad is for the best offer you'd be interested in instead of the one that makes the most money from you (i.e. the worst one for you). The expected utility to you is negative.

A customer buying something isn't a zero-sum transaction. My default assumption is that the product that stands to make the most money from me is the one that would most benefit me. For example, the grocery store sells apples, which I love, and chicken gizzards, which I don't love. The product which I want most (apples) will stand to make the most money from me. If I didn't know that apples were for sale near me, or that a particular store had particularly delicious apples, I would benefit from that and so would they after I spent my money on them. Win-win, not zero-sum.
You don't need to prove it. My point is that what's torture depends more on the psychological context than the type or extent of the injury.

I don't think this is an accurate take. The DMA is about businesses and their relationships with consumers, so any regulation has to be targeted to that.

The argument is that Apple not allowing businesses to use a protocol on par with iMessage is the issue here.

Without more technical insight (which you do not have), that's a total non sequitur.
I bought a dumb TV from Walmart a few months ago (65" 4K). The brand is Sceptre.

Picture quality is pretty much the same as any other 4K TV that you will get for <$500. Audio quality is horrendous and that is not an exaggeration. This appears to be due to the speakers more than anything else. I got a dumb soundbar from Best Buy for about $150 and that solved the problem (as much as a $150 soundbar can).

I am not the kind of person that is willing to spend $1000+ on a TV and I don't expect to get the same audio/video quality as that kind of TV will offer. But at my all-in price of about $500, it is outstanding package. We've got an AppleTV, a Wii-U, and a DVD player hooked up to it, as well as an OTA antenna. Our total usage is probably around 5 hours a week, and I can't complain at all. No menu lag, no long boot up, no advertising, etc. Highly recommended.
For better or worse it’s all part of human social networks. The looks, the lingo, etc all add up to help identify in-group vs out-group.

Don’t get me wrong, when I was younger it annoyed me much more. However now I accept that at some level it’s just part of the “human social dance”. Given that large societies, governments, corporations, etc all exist and can function shows that there’s something to it. Who knows, perhaps Neanderthals didn't do these social rituals and that prevented them scaling social networks and eventually dying out.
