Doing it in a way that behaves the way people expect is what requires work. It's easy when both people are online at the same time. It becomes more difficult when you want to ensure asynchronous delivery and receipt and which supports people hopping between devices and not losing the conversation history. I can naively think of a way which would be to make them work identically to normal Bluesky posts except they're encrypted with a public-private keypair, but that would leak who is talking to who and how many DMs people are sending and receiving.
This has nothing to do with a UBI. What happens if the government doesn't raise the benefits amount for a food stamp program? In both cases you can either index the amount to inflation or you have the same concern, so it doesn't matter which one you use and isn't a reason not to use a UBI.

If anything it's a reason to use it, because raising the amount that everybody universally gets would be easier to pass when there are more beneficiaries. Nobody cares about the minimum wage because hardly anybody actually makes minimum wage, whereas around half (and plausibly a slight majority) of the population would be a net beneficiary with a UBI.

No. I wrote about this a couple of years ago (https://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/62598.html) and the answer is that while Signal solves the cryptography problem, the other hard problem (ie, everything to do with key management) is still up to whatever's on top of the Signal protocol.

I would think this is possible. I've often agreed with the other party's lawyer that oral arguments on MtDs are unnecessary and then we just let the judge rule "on the papers" without anyone having to be there in person. The judge can then just file a written order with his ruling.

Bear in mind that motions and discovery are highly frowned upon in Small Claims courts that I've litigated in. And 95% of the time the court will rule in favor of the bigger party if they bring a lawyer, just out of general hatred of courts for unrepresented litigants.

I think this is basically it.

A lot of discussions of inequality in the US eventually end up as discussions of nominal equalness, like the problem is about making sure everyone gets paid the same amount. What the real problem is probably is more like certain beneficiaries are overvalued and overpaid, either through rent seeking, structural problems, deception, or something else, and/or the others are underpaid, and/or certain costs of labor are being unpaid.

If you have a highly profitable business and basic employee needs aren't being met by the employer's compensation, it's sort of necessarily a sign that certain costs of labor -- food, shelter, and healthcare for the workers -- aren't being paid when they could be.

It's like if I hired a carpenter to redo cabinetry in my house, and then decided I wouldn't pay for the materials because it wasn't something the carpenter themselves produced. The food and health of the workers is something the employer is benefiting from that is necessary to the labor, and they're just assuming that the workers are getting it from elsewhere.

I think the tendency for "greater equalness" to often seem like a goal in itself is kind of an indirect consequence of the fact that often when you account for all the hidden unpaid costs and overvaluations and undervaluations, employees of a company or institution probably should be more equal than they often are.

It's strange that we accept all these economic notions of price fixing, fraud, theft, and over and undervaluation when it comes to physical goods, but when it comes to labor and employer and employee compensation we just kind of pretend it's all perfect markets, with perfectly rational actors and no structural problems.

Wow the giant keyboard is making me consider alternatives. Maybe I could make a large mat to put on the desk that I could tap with a fist or open palm, switching strain to the full arm instead of just the wrist.

To your point about speech recognition and alternative keyboards: I’ve tried a bunch of things over the years, including split, curved, chorded etc. It might be time to re-revisit all of that in case things have changed. With every wave of the problem, motivation changes so even if the device wasn’t ideal at a previous time it might be acceptable now.

The US created that problem for itself, it can deal with it. Don't ruin others and you won't have refugees.
And I would say that developed western nations, including the USA, have done a pretty good job of providing subsidies and benefits for low skilled workers, so they can get on the lowest rung of the totem pole and contribute to society without starving. We specifically have food stamps, the EITC, welfare, child tax credit, housing vouchers, and so on specifically so they can provide valuable labor to society (and minimum wage is definitely a cost to businesses) and not starve.
I dont think the need is sufficiently compelling.

The Californian public got by just fine without access for 180 years. There is no urgent need for the public to access the location. Nobody will die or have major hardship without it.
By that logic, if we had universal health care, you could then say every single person who chooses to use it instead of buying private insurance "needs govt benefits to get by" and is therefore not well paid.
I'm sorry I still don't buy it. Can you please show me a use case where ignoring null pointer or overflow checks makes your product non-viable or uncompetitive?

Some of these checks could be removed by languages with better compilers and likely more restrictions. That is the better approach. As a user, I don't want to run code that is potentially unsafe and/or insecure.

It's unfortunate Amber doesn't have a Map data type, pretty big limitation.

I can think of ways of doing it, e.g. something along the lines of:

* Set the constraint that all keys must be of type String

* Then abuse /dev/shm/.Amber/${pid}/${func}/${stackDepth}/<put keys and values in files somewhere under here>
> forced to choose between "throws Exception" and a runtime exception,

Not that it fully defangs the issue, but there are two other options that come to mind.

1) suppress the exception (maybe with a log)

2) capture the fact (and maybe content) of the exception and expose it through the API in some other way

Probably neither of these is going to be appropriate for most cases, but seem worth surfacing because 1 is often chosen even when it's inappropriate and 2 is often overlooked as an option.
Decentralization is a solution for establishing a saner, fail-safe governance structure (or we can call it "billionaire-proof"), not the problem to be solved by itself. You need to have enough traction to achieve this goal and sometime it might make sense to compromise the decentralized implementation part.

> I think prosecutors would probably argue that even using a pencil purchased locally meets the bar of making the "visual depiction... produced using materials.. or that have been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce by any means, including by computer".

> Previously, the Supreme Court ruled in Ashcroft vs FSC that for CSAM to be illegal, it must at least meet the bar for obscenity, or it must be produced via actual exploitation.

You meant virtual child pornography? New York v. Ferber established Congress could ban real child pornography regardless of obscenity. I don't think Ashcroft v. Free Speech Coalition changed this. And calling all child pornography CSAM has made people confused about what images are illegal.

> The main point here is that something is happening and that will probably result in interesting decisions later on.

Possibly. Probably it will result in a plea bargain. And courts have resisted to clarify obscenity.
> our brains are inherently limited, hence cannot be trusted.

Yeah I agree with this in general. When it comes to logic though, it is hard to see how for instance the law of the excluded middle could be wrong. But then that may be just the limited brain talking :)

> Cogito, ergo sum is a meaningless statement in this context.

Not sure how. The fact that I exist is irrefutable. Everything else could be just a dream, say if base reality is that I'm a brain-in-a-vat, but my own experience says that I exist, and no one can deny that, not even God.

> Take quantum mechanics for example. Makes all our logic go away.

That doesn't sound like the right way to think. QM, and science in general, is based on observations, and those are always subject to revision. Tomorrow, all laws of physics could flip, making all our current science moot. The only role of logic here is to make sure that our techniques and conclusions are consistent and not affected by the arbitrary whims of human thoughts and desires. Logic actually helps humans go beyond the biological limitations.
This mischaracterises the point.

The scale at which data collection now happens is unprecedented. The fact that data collection and sharing is now a continuous process is unprecedented.

claiming that this has always been the case is disingenuous.
Of course small businesses can always pay poverty wages or constantly hire. Amazon actually actively advocates for more than doubling the minimum wage because it would be beneficial for them.

That's not really true in the general case though.

I think we're on the same basic page about Hamas. They could very well have ulterior motives, and could just be going along with a 2SS process in order to buy time for future offensive strategies.

My only point is that it's important to come to an objective view of what the language of the document says, on its own terms (even if we suspect it's all on the surface and their real intentions may be entirely different). And even if the language is only surface-level -- it at least opens a door to some kind of a pathway towards a solution based on negotiation and international law, without outside observers and verified inspections of their offensive capabilities, verified elections and national referenda at regular intervals, and so forth.

Which is the only viable route out of the current state of the conflict, in my view.

What if you instead capped executive compensation to a ratio, say 1:25 pegged against the lowest wage earner in the company?

e.g., you can only be compensated (meaning stock options inclusive) 25 times what your lowest paid employee is paid.

Would this naturally raise the floor at companies as executives want to increase their own compensation?

I remember an idea like this being floated 15 years ago or so and on the surface it seems sound, but the devil is always in the details.
