There are lots of interesting / incriminating details in the already released documents. There are also some redacted names which surely would add more context and answer a few questions. I'm sure we won't get many shocking

I'm not convinced that the democrats (most of them anyway) are actually apposed to what is happening. Both parties seem to have largely the same goals just preferring to use different tactics in order to achieve them.

Trump has already been impeached a couple of times. That definitely isn't happening with a conservative majority in both houses of congress.

Difficult but also important. The more our world views diverge, the more difficult it is for society (to continue functioning.)

Facebook has gone to shit long before any controversy around the CEO's political posturing. The content/spam+slop ratio is pretty dismal at this point. I am sure a lot of people are ready to jump ship, given a viable alternative

Those topics don't exactly mix with polite discussion. But I'm here for it if such a place does exist.

I've lost count of how many of the biggest problems in society can be directly traced back to great optimization decisions by MBAs. I think it's almost all of them.

Found a place in a rural part of Missouri for $60k at the end of 2019. Everything has more than doubled in value since then. I had no idea what was about to happen when I signed that paper… but I’m sure glad I didn’t wait even a few months.

Puppet is actually a very competent infrastructure-as-code tool. I never liked the typical architecture where you run a few central puppetmaster nodes with hundreds or thousands of puppet agents all syncing to that... There are other ways

I'm having a hard time taking this seriously: "only 1.75 trillion" What a ludicrous statement. I mean, I know inflation has been bad but not THAT bad. One or two trillion dollars is an absolutely enormous amount of money.

I'm sure they make some modifications, but they started with the plans for a prison. The overall building footprint and architecture is the same.

https://sourcehut.org/ is a sort of coop open source project and a SaaS with an interesting model. There is also https://opencollective.com/ which provides a platform for collective ownership of an online b

Yeah I didn't mean all of them. A couple of examples that I am aware of are Ozark High School and Waynesville High School.

In Missouri, high-school buildings use the same blueprints as state prisons. Why bother designing something custom? They serve the same purpose. They literally are prisons. If a teenager fails to show up for school, a police officer will ev

They may actually be implementing something on the server side to degrade the performance of connections because they have me flagged as a ublock user.

Are you on Android? AFAIK Mobile Firefox on iOS is just safari with a different skin and on Android it's still not really the same as desktop Firefox. I think what's actually happening is that they are targeting uBlock + Firefox o

Youtube intentionally degrades the user experience if you use Firefox, at least if you are using a proper ad blocker. And there really isn't much reason to use Firefox if you aren't also using uBlock. So by targeting the users o

Linux foundation is far from a rebel group. Look at who is involved.

Looks pretty useful. Good luck and congrats on launching your tool!

Agreed. And I personally prefer living in an area with tornados over wild fires or hurricanes. That's one of the reasons why I stay in Missouri and would never move to southern California, Florida or the Texas coast.

Thanks for clarifying these details! Obviously much better than my pure speculation, though I'm not sure why I got downvoted for it.

EF5 tornado can be every bit as destructive as a wildfire and in some areas they recur pretty frequently.

There are various ways to identify the type of connection that is being made. The most straightforward way for the service provider to block some traffic is to put in place a firewall rule that blocks specific protocol/port number comb

It seems like one of the better use-cases for machine learning models, some of them seem to especially excel at translating between languages. It seems it's even applicable to languages we don't really have any understanding for.

You might be surprised to find out that such a change has quite limited benefits. Many people will simply create their throwaways in advance, only to pull them out once the waiting period has elapsed.

Now that's true dedication to optimism. :)

I would agree with you that extinction is not assured, however, we face many existential threats simultaneously. Some world leaders seem almost eager to play with their Nuclear arsenals. The climate change denying party just got a majority

The Hopi people were/are not "noble savages." They felt compelled to warn world leaders of impending disaster. They brought their message to the U.N. in 1992. The warnings have been almost entirely unheeded, to everyone'
