Sure. Chomsky et al continue in the cited chapter,

In addition to discrimination against unfriendly media institutions,
advertisers also choose selectively among programs on the basis of their
own principles. With rare exceptions these are culturally and politically
conservative.

There are two options; either Chomsky et al are incorrect in their assertion, or they are correct.

If they are incorrect, then non-conservatives are of equal power and culpability in discriminating for or against which content they will sponsor. This would seem to be your position, and points to a state of affairs in which content and communities exist in disjoint bubbles which thrive off of entirely separate streams of ad revenue, up to the principles of the advertisers that choose to direct funding at particular media institutions.

Otherwise, if they are correct, then your assertion that this argument can be made "in both directions" is shown to be false by supposition, and the ad economy pushes users towards conservative content - in which case, one had best boycott and abstain from ad-driven media and social media unless they want to finance conservative thought.
[for those just reading the comments having not read TFA: it isn't talking about changing default find behaviour within a page, but the feature to specify text to scroll to and highlight within a link URL so the user doesn't need to ctrl-F when you refer to a small part of a larger page]
I had to ask ChatGPT the same thing.

"Bluesky is a decentralized social network platform that was originally incubated by Twitter and later spun out as an independent company. Its main goal is to create a more open and flexible social media ecosystem by using a decentralized protocol, called the Authenticated Transfer Protocol (AT Protocol). This protocol is designed to allow users more control over their data and enable interoperability across different social media apps that implement the protocol."

This very post would seem to belie that. In fact, the only times Israel ever rises to the front page is when the article is biased and critical, as is this one.

The only posts labeled "flagged" here are those who are nuanced about Israel at all with the exception of one overtly anti-Semitic post.

BEAM can't preempt native code, that's why NIFs should either be fast/low-latency to not excessively block the scheduler or be put in what's called a dirty scheduler which just means to run it in a separate thread.
I think the issue used to be that proving that involved them vetting you and I know that my contributions were deemed too sporadic. Which is chicken and egg - I would do more with a good IDE, but I can't have a good IDE till I do more. At least now, I can just do what I can without worrying.
According to the post

> If you’re using Chrome, simply highlight some text, right-click, and you’ll find the “Copy link to highlight” option in the context menu
Yeah, likewise. I'm a Bitwarden subscriber but I'd been looking into alternatives recently because of the licensing kerfuffle. But switching password managers is a pain, so I'm glad to not feel like I have to now.
In the old Apple passwords thing, they used to have that export feature but they took it away at some point. Learned this the hard way when I switched to Linux for a while.
It would be nice to have similar feature like this, but to highlight rectangle (instead of text) on the page to focus viewer on some specific area. I send screenshots with highlight quite often.
The dark network of the future will be an onion-routed Hyphanet/Freenet, with monthly "bandwidth quotas" that make links communicate uniformly at X GB/hr regardless of traffic (padding when there is none) until the monthly quota is hit right at the end of the month. If internodal links don't vary in externally measurable ways when utilized, netflow is diminished.
Agree! And it's funny.
> In these cynical times, it may be that everything is relative and "post-modern subjective p-hacking", but sufficient data usually ends these discussions.

I don't think that's right. I think having an application is what ends the discussions.

If you have a group of people who think CD players work by using lasers, and a rival group who think they do something entirely different, and only the first group can actually make working CD players, people will accept that lasers do what group #1 says they do.
While his answer was phrased in an odd and unusual way, Linus acted like someone who knows first hand how nasty Russia is. Just ask any European from the Eastern side of Europe how much they love or hate Russia.
Even assuming that the contrast could show up in newly excreted CSF (maybe, maybe not), MRI contrast elimination half lives are very short (mostly all under ~2 hrs, excepting cases like renal dysfunction), and cerebrospinal fluid doesn’t replenish particularly quickly.

I wish Commodore had had a quarter of Apple's marketing skills. More powerful, cheaper hardware with a significantly more capable and extensible OS could have made the Mac a footnote if executed properly and would have supplied some interesting competitive pressure to the wider market.
> there was a clear propaganda push from some corners telling people that their freedoms were being taken away

People’s freedoms were, literally, being taken away. Whether the extent to which freedoms were curtailed was worth the extent to which doing so helped slow the spread of the virus is a subjective question that reasonable people can debate. It’s unfair to dismiss either side of that debate as “propaganda”.
Nothing new, and I'm pretty sure these sorts of attacks have been possible and used ever since it's founding.

TOR ultimately works like any old relay system; if you control enough nodes, you can effectively decloak people if they happen to connect to only your nodes. Nodes are assigned for connection based on a trust value so all a Nation state would have to do is host enough nodes (relay+exit) and they'd be able to decloak a connection. This kinda inherently gives TOR decloaking abilities to entities with the most infrastructure, which at that scale basically will only be nation states.

TOR works well enough for privacy when your adversaries aren't well-funded state actors. (ie. It's probably enough to mask your traffic if you use TOR to access resources to get out of an abusive relationship or need to circumvent cult-level inspection of your personal interests by religious schools. Most dictatorships also don't really have the resources to mount this sort of attack - it's probably just the US and some European countries.) That rule kinda also goes for VPNs in general however.
In Google Chrome select text, right click and click "copy link to highlight".

I have suspected Tor has been busted for quite a long time. LE is only using this power selectively for now - the last thing that they want is to scare users away lest they go and build something more secure.

The Nym mixnet[0] seems promising but it's still new and unproven.

I had an idea a while back to make traffic analysis more difficult by building circuits distributed across adversarial countries. Would like to hear thoughts on it.[1]

Yes, you could say that. Did you you miss the part where one country is invading another country in an actual armed conflict? Then a bunch of other people choose one side or the other. They call each other names and they posture and they try to influence support. They use whatever pressure they can.

Linus and his lawyers have clearly chosen one side. You seem to have chosen the other but want to appear as if you haven't for whatever reason.
> in Russia

And in modern times.
Russia would be screaming out of their lungs and threatening nuclear war if CIA or MI6 murdered someone in Moscow with plutonium tea.
> As long as Hamas exists in a functioning form there can be no peace.

I think the big problem with this approach is that actions taken now, which lead to deaths, lead to the friends & family of said people becoming more radicalised and thus to more terror attacks/wars in the future.

I read recently in the FT that 60% of current Hamas fighters have lost family to previous conflicts, suggesting that this isn't going to end.

And more generally, it's basically impossible for conventional armies to defeat guerilla fighters who have the support of the population (c.f. Irish/English conflicts, Iraq, Afghanisation (multiple times) etc).

Like, fundamentally the only way this can end is through either extermination or negotiation. Given the relative power imbalances, it'll be extermination of the Palestinians, which would be terrible (and incredibly depressing given that a lot of Israeli citizens are descended from survivors of the Holocausts and the various pogroms in European history).
That's some spooky shit right there. Is this a Chrome thing?
Support for the feature itself was only added in a very recent mainline firefox release. Like, less than one or two months ago.
Yes :) But it will take a while!
I use both, and I agree, even if I’m very happy with Firefox. There are lots of apps outside of browsers that need passwords. It’s very common these days. Besides, does it support passkeys? That’s getting increasingly common as well.
love it so pretty and the music adds
Nice try

But I don't live in China

Edit: anyway it's a false premise, China has 1.4 billion people living there, do you really think 1.4 billion people do not criticize ever the government? USA has the highest rate of incarceration per capita in the World, there a say that goes "the biggest prize a journalist can win it's not the Pulitzer, it's being killed by the CIA" the DoD is the largest emplyer in the world, NSA has the largest budget in the world, I do not believe it's all spent in defense (DoD used to be named department of war) and oversimplification doesn't really explain things it only keeps stereotypes alive IMO.
Just pay for a subscription to a dating app if you can afford it. It's money well spent when you really want to meet a partner and are struggling to do so IRL. As long as you go for one that doesn't have the Tinder UX of course...
Not really inclined to give an author the time of day when they open the article with "this article was originally so demonstrably wrong from my baseless assertions and misconceptions I had to rework it. But I reached the same conclusion."
That's the one. If that scene was any more '80s it'd have to wear shoulder pads.
I've noticed that Google inserts this into result links sometimes, taking you to the relevant part of the page.

I'd reckon the median user is not someone who has been "publishing blog posts multiple times a day, seven days a week" at any point of their life and that the most likely risk is mindless consumption rather than endless production.
But just quit following random strangers on the Internet, keep social media as a way to maintain your irw network of relations, and you'll usually be alright.

Sure, then we can discuss about the inherent issues of the platforms (which are many), but first one has to exploit their own agency to the utmost degree.

I don't think you ever could "copy the video onto the clipboard" in anything.

That said, I do wonder why you aren't able to just save as. Is it a "commercial interest" or is there an optimization going on?

What I'm most worried about is how farming will adapt. Either food production needs to shift to geograhically new areas, or we'll need massive storm-proof greenhouses where hostile weather conditions don't matter. Large scale desalination of seawater will be likely needed too.

Given enough money, anything is possible of course. In my country we grow things like cucumber and tomatoes during winter in heated greenhouses with artificial light, even though it's dark and freezing outside. They just cost 2-3x more than same stuff produced further south.
Off topic but related… With so many ways to get around downloading videos/media like this for example, I will never understand why companies don’t just allow videos to be saved like a picture. Add a simple download button to make it obvious and simple for users to download a video. For example, Tiktok has this, and just adds their watermark to the downloaded video.

It’s just a false sense of security to users when they think people “can’t” download their content. Even apps like Snapchat that are marketed to be “save proof” are def not. I think it’s a betrayal to the user for any company to pretend a user’s media is “safe” from downloads/screenshots/etc.
Still not as good as the Task Manager from Windows, although it has the advantage of being able to run in the terminal.

Whats cool about this is the visualisation gives you a good intuition on how the training is working.

Sometimes i feel like it should be able to get more details in certain areas but its always looking at things holistically.

I wish you could give it a 3d bounding box and say - "work on this area only" which i think is something that should be possible?

One suggestion for local branch logging - you can do `git log master..` and it will show you the log of commits on your branch, stopping when it gets to (the common ancestor with) master.

I don't use many aliases, but I do use that command a lot.
This is exactly what people are saying when they are referring to 'zionists', everything else is just a red herring. Unfortunately even well intentioned people are ignorant of this.
Very cool! Five minutes of this felt strangely soothing in my head, after a few nights of not enough sleep.

Being able to set a max duration would be neat, in case it's unsafe to lose track of time and let the pattern run for too long?

Starting your journey to law school, especially at a prestigious institution like NLSIU Bangalore, is an exciting chapter in your life. It’s not just about studying law; it’s about discovering your passion, shaping your future, and learning how to make a meaningful difference in the world around you. While the path may seem daunting, with dedication and the right strategies, you can definitely achieve your goals. Here’s a more personal and detailed guide to help you along the way.
From what I see running the test on my phone, there's an option to tunnel DNS through Rethink here, which you can change to the VPN's DNS. Everything else is tunneled by default through wireguard. Maybe there's a configuration issue on your end?
> There are hundreds if not thousands of examples of Hamas cynically using actions that are bound to hurt civilians.

Correct, this is how guerrilla forces have always worked. Either their fighters get protection, or the colonial/occupying (from their perspective) power gets loads of bad PR.

I mean, when you look at the relative arms strength of the two forces, they'd be crazy not to do this.

Is this moral? 100% not. Is it understandable? Strategically, again 100%. yes.

I have no dog in the EV race, but the Leaf never had an important impact in the USA at least. They were incredibly impractical due to their short range. I also never heard anyone say they were fast either, so I have to credit Musk with making the first BEV that was both widely useful and fun to drive, which were two things we didn’t believe EVs were back then.
Java was hardcore "everything is an object from a class" and basically forced inheritance for most dynamic dispatch for decades. It doesn't matter how much FP candy they slap on top of it now, too late, it will always be stuck in a legacy world of crappy inheritance and everything-nullability.

No one is actually arguing about why it was done. It's the apparent secrecy and denial to reveal the details that should worry anyone in the world-wide Linux community. They aren't idiots, they knew this would happen. So there must be some reason.

In simple terms, people want a clear statement whether Linux is independent, or US-controlled, and to what extent. Just so they can cross some check-boxes in their heads.
From a UX perspective, right-click-save-as should absolutely be a thing that works.

But the fact that it doesn't isn't some kind of industry-wide conspiracy, it's just not an easy feature for a browser to implement in a generic way, given how streamed video works.

Speaking as an open-source feature flag 'vendor' (https://github.com/flipt-io/flipt), the OpenFeature organization has been a joy to work with. They are very welcoming of new contributors (e.g., implementing a provider SDK in a new language).

Well, because they’re aethers - pervasive “stuff” which is the substance of the traveling wave, eg those detected by LIGO.

The C# dev kit plug-in improved VSCode a lot, but it is still under the same licensing as Visual Studio Community. So, you need an account to use it, and it is pretty restricted for commercial use without an MSDN/Visual Studio subscription. If you are using it commercially outside of the terms of the Community license, you are probably using it illegally.

Not using the C# Dev kit, the old OmniSharp stuff is miles behind Rider. It is really poor in comparison.

I've been a previous subscriber, but I let my license lapse after this announcement. I don;t really need to be on the "latest and greatest" train, and I can get my company to buy me a license if a new feature comes in that I need commercially. I have got a perpetual fallback Rider license, but I will also use the non-commercial licenses to do any OS work in my spare time going forward (which is mostly on Mac and why I had a paid licence initially anyway.)
