This is something I wanted to read buy td;rl while attempting the article.

Can you have both "creation of lots of jobs" by government policy

and at the same time

Higher wages for all workers

?

PBS also reported that if you sign up for this, you give up your right to go after them if something happens - there's some kind of agreement that you have to go thru some process I forget the name of, in which the company usually wins.

Also, although they offer 1 free year, the problem here (social insurance number, etc) is a lot longer than that, so you'd be paying a recurring amount, wouldn't you?

"Over my decades, I have seen numerous ideas go from socially intolerable & indefensible, to practically obligatory & untouchable (or vice versa). Seriously, there are things today that can't be opposed in the slightest without threatening one's standing or career, which not long ago were universally anathema that couldn't be defended."

Which things, out of curiosity?

Wow. Doc name please?

You might consider doing this for research papers cited (although the titles might be harder to find if people don't use the exact title when they cite).

Which bring a question most people are probably interested in: What is the method this site works on?

EDIT: Nevermind. You already did this.

>>Could you average out titles for the whole year? and for all records?

... While costing roughly exactly the same amount? :)

This is a good point, but how would this cause Google's business branch (advertising) from collapsing? Businesses want to advertise, and their service here is reputable.

That's informative, thanks.

And I think you're point is on point: people would buy these and not be happy with them, because they want a real monitor. There's also a group of people who want them just to be able to ready articles and write articles (and code, etc) outside, and without charging a battery as often, and would be happy with lo-fi graphics.

There is demand for it. There are lots of people trying to buy them, find them, and even make them DIY style, so why no one is making them is a mystery. Could there possibly be reverse pressure because of the market for other screens?

... for now

PixelQi! Are they finally going to put out a product anytime soon, do you know?

Their low-power daylight-friendly monitors are only available on eBay as far as I've found.

Cool share. If anyone has more links to these songs, plz share here. The article just has one.

EDIT. Actually, the Soundcloud its from has a ton: https://soundcloud.com/ostinatorecords

Kind of like torrenting, right? But how stable is that data then? Isn't it too complicated, to find all that data and piece it together, and not lose any of it?

I will look at those, thanks.

Ok, so I have watched 2 of his videos and understand what he's explaining, but what I don't understand is where the data is supposed to be stored. (I also can't think of any ways for data to be stored except in big banks (hosting) like it is now - Can you think of any?

I get that he's proposing all devices can access the web by accessing each other (each device a port), but where are the websites located then? Where are the videos stored?

Thanks. Am watching this.

Is this like the app the arabs used during the arab spring, where nations cut off internet, so they used an app to share info using each other as a network? I think there's also a radio-wave version of this, isn't there?

Their call is for the UN to make autonomous killing machines a prohibited type of weapon (like other weapons already prohibited).

A concern is the "industrialization" of war. Another is that these weapons are so fast ("faster than humans can comprehend") when they get used as terrorist weapons or rogue, it could be pretty harmful.

This would mean that if a country starts building them, they could be monitored, sanctioned, and preemptively dealt with.

I can't explain where the line is for the difference between saying that word at that time (although I suspect some lawyers might).

I can see there would be a big difference though in yelping a word in that situation and being directly responsible for the harm it caused (mischief maybe?) and expressing a person's ideas and beliefs.

The analogy you put doesn't work out, unfortunately, because ANY idea can result in human oppression and death. For example, the speech that civil rights leaders spoke and wrote that in a roundabout way caused injuries and deaths at protests motivated by them, the speech that fired up the American Revolution and other revolutions.

I can't think of any speech that it would do less harm to limit than the limitation would do.

Can you? If you can, I will give a fair effort to CMV.

Does it really matter what the ideas of some small group (as far as I know ineffectual) thinks or writes?

How can their ideas/speech be more dangerous than limitations of speech on the web?

I have been following this story, and each time a corp does this, Daily Stormer, a site 99% of people would never have any interest in, is framed and reinforced as an important piece that represents all our free speech (and braoder rights).

Does anyone have a link to this site?

I heard it had moved to Russia.

Until this month, when I saw this I would have first thought of China and Russia and those others. But now I'm starting to think about North America.

(The article begins) For the last two years, a team of engineers and researchers has quietly been working to develop new technology for Internet freedom.

Today, we are pleased to share results from the first large-scale field trial of refraction networking, a fundamentally new way to help people around the world learn and communicate online in the face of censorship. We served more than 50,000 users, for more than a week, by deploying refraction networking at partner ISPs.

(Seeking Alpha) Google announces the Documenting Hate News Index, a cooperation between Google News lab, Pitch Interactive, and ProPublica to use machine learning to track and report on hate crimes around the country.

The project utilizes Google Cloud Natural Language API to scrape the prior six months of Google News for stories on hate crimes, biases, or related abuses and creates a visual tool that makes the information easier for reporters to use.

What are these, please?

Exactly. This edges Google closer towards monopoly status and competition laws, I think.

But I wonder where on the internet unpopular speech will be hosted?

Even if the UN (and nations) declare internet a human right, where will content be hosted? Will the UN be able to force nations to change their laws to not persecute unpopular speech?

It is definitely possible to have complete protection of speech. It's a choice, and the repercussions of it would not involve great harm, although since the 1950s we seem to be getting closer (and sometimes further).

Treason is only possible if a country is at war (ie has an "enemy"). The speech would be protected as it is now (that wouldn't be the crime they break), but they could be found guilty of committing treason by the same (speech in this case) act.

Is there any country that protects all speech that you know of?

(Related to the law you mentioned, in Germany they also have laws that are reactions to WWII, and they arrested some Chinese tourists for making Nazi salutes for tourist photos outside a government building last week.)
