> And you're glossing over the initial catalyzing event here. Austria Hungary just had their leader in waiting assassinated, with state backing from Serbia. Many wars, if not most, are started under false pretext, or with false evidence. Another state participating in the assassination of your heads of state is one of the most just, reasonable, and textbook causes for war imaginable.

I guess we'll just have to agree to differ on that one. Murder is a crime and the perpetrators should be punished... which they were. Many members of the groups involved in the assassination were tried and several were sentenced to death. Invading another country afterwards and calling it "just and reasonable" is more than a bit ridiculous.

Also, just for the record, franz ferdinand wasn't anyone's leader, he was the son of the current emperor of austo-hungary, and to be honest, most of the political elite who led the effort to start a war didn't particularly like or care for him anyways. Somewhat ironically, a large part of this dislike is because ferdinand was generally arguing in favor of peace.

As for "regardless of who won and who lost", my consistent point is condemning the invaders, regardless of whether they won or lost. Again, for example, france invaded germany a few decades earlier, lost, and had to pay reparations, and basically no one has ever brought it up again as some kind of excuse for starting a world war.
Exactly this. The amount of wasteful greedy/hoarding behavior that is induced by free and is curbed by charging even $20 is quite high. Charging 50% of the going resale rate is probably enough to prevent hoarding and substantially curb resale.

That might be slightly too much for the aims of the program, in which case adjust as needed, realizing that you're trading off one outcome for another.

I have had mixed results when using NPM libraries, but I also haven't run into any cases yet where I absolutely needed them

Some stuff you might reach out to NPM for is built into Deno's standard library. Other stuff has become built-in JS language features over the years. And the ecosystem, while nowhere near as big as NPM's, seems to have all the most important stuff at this point, at least for back-end work

And if I have to fill gaps by reinventing some small wheels here and there, or by interning and converting an NPM library, that's still worth it to me to avoid all the tooling headaches

No, people are getting mad because Youtube has been letting people use it with ad-blockers for 18 years (in practise, at least) and have now hardened their stance considerably. In other words, they got to the dominant position by being very lenient, and now that they are on top they are tightening the screws.

This means that people who watched Youtube for up to 18 years with ad blockers are now forced to decide whether they want to pay money, watch ads, or stop using the service.

None of those choices is better, except possibly morally, than the now-unavailable but previously-very-available choice of getting Youtube for free with no ads.

If Google showed text ads for a few seconds before every search and used technical means to prevent people from bypassing that process, there would be a similar outcry -- even though everybody knows that it costs Google money to provide search results.

I am definitely not going to wait for the regulators fix up YT, but rather quit watching. We already have a family premium account because my partner couldn't stand the ads. I refuse to pay them. YT music is also shit quality. I bought a new pair of headphones and thought they were defective until I listened to my own ~160 kbps opus encoded content. Yes, it's that crappy, possibly 96 kbps or below. However I still listen to it because its bundled and paid for and still sounds better than FM radio. Totally not worth even half of what they're asking for.
> "user-mode network stack"

Kernels typically cannot use vector instructions because if they did they would need to save and restore the vector register state when servicing interrupts. There is a very large performance cost to doing that.

Moving packet processing into userspace means adding latency, including TLB pressure, in order to do the context switch.

I imagine that we might get some innovation by allowing to configure the system such that the kernel owns the vector registers and userspace is not allowed to use them. If your primary interest in vector registers/instructions is packet processing, and you're doing that in kernelspace, you might not mind it if userspace can't use those registers.
It's psychological warfare against me. Why should I play nice when they aren't?

>To those men in their oddly similar dark suits, their cold eyes weighing and dismissing everything, the people of this valley were a foe to be defeated. As he thought of it, Dasein realized all customers were "The Enemy" to these men. Davidson and his kind were pitted against each other, yes, competitive, but among themselves they betrayed that they were pitted more against the masses who existed beyond that inner ring of knowledgeable financial operation.

>The alignment was apparent in everything they did, in their words as well as their actions. They spoke of "package grab level" and "container flash time" -- of "puff limit" and "acceptance threshold." It was an "in" language of militarylike maneuvering and combat. They knew which height on a shelf was most apt to make a customer grab an item. They knew the "flash time" -- the shelf width needed for certain containers. They knew how much empty air could be "puffed" into a package to make it appear a greater bargain. they knew how much price and package manipulation the customer would accept without jarring him into a "rejection pattern."

>And we're their spies, Dasein thought. the psychiatrists and psychologists - all the "social scientists" we're the espionage arm.

> I never fully understood why CEO:s resign when there's a scandal. Like, stay on and clean up the mess you made instead of bailing with a golden parachute?

There's no point in trusting them to clean up the mess when their job was to foster a culture of preventing it in the first place. They failed at leadership itself.

No point in having a golden parachute either if you never get put in the position of invoking it.
There is no "predicament". I simply believe that it is my right to block ads as much as it is Youtube right to not send me videos anymore.

At the end of the day, I'm issuing an API request to youtube servers and they are free to reply to me or block me. I'm also free to do whatever I want with the reply, which includes NOT displaying the ads.
That's the debate. What if you give someone a Chromebook instead of $300 and they cannot afford to repair their car. On the other hand giving someone a Chromebook can have a bigger impact than many other ways they could spend $300.
1-(300/160) comes out correct if rounded.
I.e. 300 is 188% of 160, therefore you are making 88% less. That's not how percentages work!

Wow. Just wow. Is there really a mistake this big here?

Precisely, and for this reason, AI will be the snake oil panacea, just as computerization of records were. Both will be important, but the size of the contract will be based on the "transformative" messaging around the pitch. The real value as you've said will accrue to the consultancies and vendors as it always has, so even without the enormous compute bills for AI tools, prices will keep going up.
Vid.me did exactly what everyone who cries about youtube wanted. It even got really popular.

Then it went bankrupt because what everyone actually wants above all else is a totally cost-free/ad-free platform.
What difference does that make? Surely, any business decisions would take into account that it is all still Microsoft’s money.

“Paying” for accounting purposes, and “paying” where the payer loses access to the funds has different consequences.

For example, Apple and Alphabet can account for YouTube and Apple Music paying App Store fees, but leadership can ignore the fees for the purposes of selling a loss leader. Spotify cannot ignore the fees, since it would run out of money to pay other bills (or negatively effect net income).
Cash is more likely to be nefariously hopped on than computers, especially when the resale market for the computers is destroyed.

I feel people tend to forget that MSFT owns only 49% of OpenAI. There are people owning the rest, and they presumably have some interest in protecting their share of the company from MSFT's aggressive grab. Even if all new development goes to hell, GPT-4 and co are still worth something.

Maybe MSFT really got the deal of a lifetime where they (a) tricked the FTC to not consider anything they are doing to touch antitrust laws due to "only buying 49% of the business" and (b) have a way to "extract" the core assets of OpenAI to the detriment of the remaining shareholders. That's not impossible given the quaint structure OpenAI has and the unusual structuring of the deal with MSFT, but would be quite surprising.

To be clear, this is typical evolutionary speculation. Sounds reasonable, but I’ve not seen anything that would be able to prove this and there are likely many other considerations that complicate such a nice and easy conclusion.

Also, my experience of working in games is that the developers are exclusively windows. The backend services might use other OS's, but all the game development happens on Windows. When this was going on, I don't think a single developer in our room would have know the first thing about Linux.

I think you'd be surprised at just how many games use Windows servers :)

In all, over the last decade, the [teachers] union spent $6,448,327 on travel expenses. That comes out to an average of $53,736 a month, every month, for 10 straight years. How does that fulfill the union’s tax-exempt mission to “elevate the quality of public education for all students”? That amount does not include "Conferences, conventions, and meetings." https://foxbaltimore.com/news/project-baltimore/marylands-te...

Baltimore City Schools received 29 federal Covid grants totaling $799M to fight learning loss. Yet, in 2023, just 9.1% of all 3rd-8th graders tested proficient in math. MEANING, taxpayers gave an additional $799M and 91% of Baltimore students are NOT math proficient.
New test scores, known as MCAP (Maryland Comprehensive Assessment Program), obtained by Project Baltimore, revealed that 23 schools, including elementary, middle, and high schools, had not one student that could do math at grade level.

A Calverton educator, who reached out to Fox45, claims to have received that text. “[It instructed me to] go into my grade book, make sure no students are failing, and essentially change the grade if they are failing so they will pass with a 60 percent,” said the teacher, whose identity we are concealing upon request.

“I was frustrated as a teacher. We’re public servants. And when we see things like grade changing, that’s self-serving. That’s not helping the kids.”

After watching Fox45’s recent investigations into allegations of grade changing at Calverton, the City Schools employee contacted Project Baltimore to say a couple things. First, according to the teacher, grade changing at Calverton is “very common.”

Second, the educator told Fox45, changing grades is the easiest and fastest way to pass more students, which makes the school and its administrators look better. But, it does a huge disservice to not just the kids, but our entire community.

“Teaching a whole generation of kids that they don’t have to be accountable for their actions, or that hard work isn’t valued or valuable when they are in school, is so discouraging and damaging.”

Adding insult to injury, the same teacher said that he even passed kids who had been on his roster all year but didn’t bother to show up for a single day of class. But this teacher says grade changing at Calverton goes much further than just taking a failing grade and making it a 60. Some students who pass, according to this educator, don’t even have grades because they’ve never showed up to class.
“There were students on my roster all year that I had never met, had never seen. On paper they passed my class and passed onto the next year.”

“I love my job and I love my students,” concluded the teacher. “I want to see the students at Calverton and other schools across the city, get a fresh start. And it’s going to be hard because the students are used to this now. But the students deserve better and our city deserve better.”

Be mindful of potential biases. Monero is rightfully highly regarded for its privacy, but you may be overlooking certain aspects:

- Unlike Bitcoin, Monero's monetary issuance is not auditable, which could prove a major problem in case of an attack, potentially leading to inflation.

- Monero faces blockchain bloat issues due to its ring signatures. It cannot scale gracefully.

- Privacy and transaction cost concerns with Bitcoin have largely been addressed by Lightning and potentially other upcoming layer 2 solutions. A lot of work is being done here. If you are technologically inclined, you can also participate:
https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/lightning-dev/20...

- KYC happens on exchanges. Buy your BTC on decentralized platforms like Bisq or RoboSats and be done with KYC.

- A private-only ledger can pose challenges when transaction notarization is necessary. Bitcoin lets you choose between a private L2 transaction or a public blockchain transaction.

That said, I love Monero and am glad it exists.

I will agree that for the most part LA has SF beat on Asian food, but Cantonese/HK style Chinese is better in SF, and the rest is probably on par, just fewer options in SF.

But you nailed in on the head -- you have to find ethnic food made by people who know how it's supposed to taste and making it for people who know how it's supposed to taste. If I go into an ethnic restaurant I know it's good if the majority of the customers are that ethnicity.
This is true. I was hoping my educated guess of the outcome would minimize the possibility of anyone attempting this. And yet, here we are - the only losing strategy in the technology sector is to not try at all.

I don't presume to know what is the appropriate punishment for something like this. I do know that this is a high profile case and those attract attention of regulators because there is the opportunity to make an example. And I also know that people in fact did go to jail for what in monetary terms were far smaller offenses. Nadella isn't that stupid. I don't like him because he's just like Gates but with a lot more polish but I would not bet against him in anything concerning legal affairs.
