Yes but MicroG does allow to use AGPS and cellular location through services other than Google.

Unfortunately Mozilla was the biggest one and they just shut theirs down. But there's a plugin for apple's and you can also use one that automatically caches cells wherever you have been, which works really great if you end up in the same places a lot.

Hence the "gave a very clear speech" part. If you don't get it at that point then I don't care if you're just stupid or it's cultural differences, at some point you have to adapt to the environment you work in. And no, there were no language barriers involved.

which may or may not be true.

There was a general belief that Biblical interpretations gave a limited age to the earth, famously "calculated" in various ways by Johannes Kepler, Isaac Newton, James Ussher and John Lightfoot.

Deep geological time ran counter to that common belief.
It is in fact illegal to collude when setting commodity prices, yes. Having market prices is not the same as colluding.
Obviously the remote code could send the data to whatever three letter agency the operator wants, so the remote operator need to publish the server's code. But how do you prove that the remote operator is running the code they claim they are?

That's what SGX does, it lets remote systems provide a cryptographic proof that they are running certain code. Including the ability to have a private key protected by the SGX, so you can public key encrypt your data, send it to the remote server, and know that only the code they've already published is processing your data.
That’s my method, too, when I can. I was in Park City, UT, a few years ago - and the parking meters were broken. The app was the only way to pay.
That was cool! Yeah this is exactly the kind of thing I'm working on too. I don't have it that you can draw like he does, but it does let you view an object in a similar way & it can stream data to a server connected over wifi so that you can see mirrored behavior on a desktop app. But it's missing so much still, you can't interact with anything yet.

I’m sure dozens of excellent replacements have been created, but WP is just so huge.

It doesn’t matter how messy it is, you’re not going to convince the marketing agency with 10 Wordpress devs to learn something else.

It’s probably also relevant that WP is so weird and different from other frameworks. A lot of people who make websites with WP don’t seem to know the first thing about web dev outside of the WP ecosystem. I’m not hating on them, but you can use WP in ways that don’t give you skills to use other tech.

The theory is that when you send your contact list to the service, the service can prove to you that it's running a specified set-intersection application (and nothing else!) in the environment that will have access to that data, using this attestation mechanism.

If it modified the application to make it log or leak your data somehow, it could no longer pass that attestation step.

This should work as long as there is no hardware or side channel attack that lets the service operator (or someone it rents hardware from) defeat the SGX security guarantees, as long as there's no backdoor in the enclave implementation, and as long as the signing keys are not leaked or extracted, and are only used in accordance with the published policies.
They were also really lax with the safety of the Pacific island natives where they tested their later bigger stuff :(

Forcing people to "transition" into the opposite gender that they identify with is also abusive when simple medical procedures are available that let you defer that situation until later. Like, would it really be a huge deal if you had a high voice and no facial hair until 18? If after much consideration you identify as a man, then you go off the puberty blockers and transition into one. If you identify as a woman, you start HRT and just go through puberty once.

It's quite a stretch to call this abuse, and I know you know it, because you created a brand new throwaway account to make your comment.

Although I’m a huge fan of stoic philosophy, I do find the post lacks substance regarding the nature of human sociality, duty, balance of duty, and what is actually good for other people. In stoic philosophy, there are guidelines for what “good” means, but it’s a very complex matter. Especially when determining what’s good for another person.

Regardless, it’s a great topic and I think there’s a lot to take from it even if a lot of nuance is trimmed.

There’s nothing that fulfills me more than being useful and I suppose pro-social towards the people in my life. I think stoicism really nails how essential and innate this is to living a good life (for most people). There’s arguably something insidious and corroding about treating pro-sociality as a commodity you need to be rewarded for.

> You ask people if they want a thing and they say yes.

You call it asking, I call it nagging. And “yes” isn’t the only answer, there’s also “you annoyed me so much I’ll actively avoid you”. Have you never seen one-star reviews saying “the app keeps nagging me to review”? These have business consequences, it’s far from all positives as your responses imply.

> The matter of fact is that it seems to work well enough for people to keep doing it.

That’s like the old maxim that “nobody gets fired for buying IBM”. Just because “everybody does it” does not mean it’s the optimal approach. Things change and people get wise to common bullshit, even as this kind of “knowledge” and “best practices” keeps being shared by money-hungry pariahs. No one really tests these assumptions in depth, they just share them uncritically. If you’re so sure it’s the best approach, let’s see the data. Otherwise let’s just be honest and say we don’t know.

So the argument for the existence of tariffs is that the Chinese government provides unfair subsidies to its EV manufacturers.

By setting up shop in Mexico, the EV manufacturer will be locating equipment in Mexico, buying material in Mexico, hiring Mexican workers, etc. So then much of that subsidy is being provided to Mexico rather than China, yes? And the small amount that flows back into China is mostly in the form of profits that flow into the pockets of a bunch of already wealthy people.

You have to wonder why China is ok with this happening. It seems like a terrible use of their public money.

Hmm. Will they come out with a fixed hardware revision i wonder?
I think this is very cool. I ran an intern program at a mutual fund for a few years, and at a major bank for a few more years. We had lots of successes (and some things that never worked out).

One year we had an idea for a system. I brought Anderson Consulting in, explained what I wanted, sent them off with a quote. There were two interns in the meeting and they said they wanted a chance. 3 weeks later Anderson came in to pitch what they wanted to do. They did their side show to build a prototype ($175K) and then the system, another $650K. Elapsed time about 7 months.

Interns said they wanted to demo what they had come up with after talking to the business people. So they did the demo, Anderson people were going awesome, we will take these active wireframes and build the prototype and come back in 2 months. Interns said, no, this is a full working system, pulled up the code that was behind it, interfaces to the primary DB, etc. Another hour of stuff.

So it turns out the interns had built in 3 weeks what Anderson wanted $825K and 3/4 of a year to build. I was (and am) so proud of them. Love interns that you can just unleash. They spent the rest of their internship doing the docs, putting it into production. At the end, my boss, the CIO gave each of them a $100K "scholarship" and job offers to come back when they graduated.

> Of course governments and tax authorities are one such traditional player, so they will be disintermediated. The government calls it "tax evasion", while the crypto world calls it a feature.

There's an old quote along the lines of "One often meets his destiny on the road he takes to avoid it". First said, probably, by Jean de La Fontaine in the 17th century, but probably more widely known from its use by Master Oogway in "Kung Fu Panda".

It is not hard to think of ways that governments could stop much crypto tax evasion, at the cost of a general lowering of financial privacy. The crypto world might think that people would not put up with that, but most people already willingly give up much financial privacy for the convenience of credit and debit cards.

For most people its not all that big a leap from the amount of privacy they have given up to their bank for a credit card and the amount of privacy they'd have to give up to allow tax evaders to be stopped, and if their taxes are higher because of too much crypto tax evasion they will have no problem making that leap.

It's because they want to have 0 responsibility for what is posted on their platform. Any past action on their part to counter the spread of misinformation establishes precidant they do not want.

Also, outrageous, conspiracy-oriented, and rage-bait content has much higher engagement anyway, which is why their algorithm has historically encouraged it so heavily. Explicit misinformation falls into those categories and has been good for their bottom line and getting everyone's parents addicted to the platform

The bulk of the spillage didn't originate "in the middle of a world war" though:

Until 1963, the Los Alamos national laboratory spit radioactive waste into a nearby canyon as the Department of Defense developed the nation’s nuclear arsenal. The area became so saturated in toxic waste that it was dubbed Acid Canyon.

Three bombs and a few partials were produced during WWII, in 1950 there was barely 200 or so in the US, by early 1960 the number was in the thousands, possibly low tens of thousands.
Sure it does. Shires go back a ways, but they were not bred in quantity until the 1850s or so. "In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, there were large numbers of Shires, and many were exported to the United States."
Before and after that period, those big guys were an exotic breed. That's the railroad but pre-truck period.

(I've owned a Percheron, and have known some Shires.)
OK, but what about the DC office that was built in ~2011 and was specifically touted as "..to better interface with the government..." -- the NSA Security guys revolving door? And the ex SS guys? and the ex navy intel head of security guy that was walked out of the building for sexual misconduct?

OTel being a capture & ingest only specification is kind of messed up. There's no attempt from what I can tell for how to query or present stored data; it's just an over-the-wire specification, & that drastically limits usable scope. It means vendors each get to make their own services & backends & tools, but it's greviously limiting the effort as a whole, makes even an open spec like OTel a one-way door.

Ideally OTel would be more than observability, imo. Traces would be event-sources, would be a thing that begets more computing. The system to observe computing should in turn also be the system to react & respond to computing, should be begetting more computing elsewhere. That's the distributed system I want to see; local agents reporting their actions, other agents seeing that & responding. OTel would fit the need well, if only we could expand ourselves beyond thinking of observability as an operator affordance & start thinking of it as the system to track computation.

It’s been kind of useless honestly. The city allowed the registrars to reserve many domains as “premium” domains, i.e. almost all neighborhoods were reserved with prices in the tens of thousands of dollars. Initially you had to specify a NYC postal address, no PO boxes, allegedly to prevent domains from being scooped up by non-NYC entities. And there was no privacy protection (that seems to have changed).
probably also because of piracy and the cracking scene. you're too poor to buy software, so you learn to crack it. you learn how to read assembly and use a debugger, a ton of obfuscation techniques and how to circumvent them, cryptanalysis through writing keygens. I'm not from the Eastern Bloc but I picked up some serious reverse engineering skills as a teenager from the warez scene.
No misunderstanding at all. The argument is very clear.

> global network consists of servers run by many independent entities

This is not the case for all the popular chat apps including Signal which uses centralized servers which they run themselves. They clearly see little benefit from this distributed independent server model.

And even that doesn't mean the server is open source.

As I explained earlier if you cannot audit the physical server you are connected to, claiming it's open source is useless. FYI that's literally how the term open source was used in this context!

> The integrity of your conversation with someone would then depend on both your endpoints, clients, and the respective server.

Client to client verification simply works and eliminates the need to also "verify" the server which if compromised introduces an even higher risk of contamination in the trust model (too many co-dependent functions are delegated to the server), not to mention collusion in establishing integrity of yet another device that we need to trust.
