And from the NYTimes themselves:
"‘Trust’ in the News Media Has Come to Mean Affirmation"

This is likely as accurate as the game of broken telephone that kids play.
Handwaving TT away as "another social media platform" is like comparing Friendster or MySpace with the ad machine that FB has built. There are countless businesses that will be impacted by this.
NeutralCrane has a really helpful comment below[0], would love to have a more thorough post on everything!
By the time the politician says it, you've been soaking in it for weeks or months, if not longer. That just confirms the bias that has been implanted in you.
Good explanation from Quora[0]:
The old Route 66 (often referred to as “The Mother Road”)—which opened in 1926 to drive from Chicago to Los Angeles—was the main method of heading west until the 1950s and the building of modern superhighways. (The trek of numerous Okies and other rural families made destitute by the Dust Bowl in the 1930s has been memorialized in Steinbeck’s “The Grapes of Wrath.”) Route 66 travels through Albuquerque—and actually intersects itself in the middle of downtown (ie., you can stand on the corner of Route 66 and Route 66)—so lots of people likely got confuddled and turned around while driving through Albuquerque…like Bugs!

1. See if VirusTotal lists your site (including subdomains, app.domain and www.domain, etc): https://www.virustotal.com/gui/home/url
If wrongly flagged, reach out to each security vendor manually - takes about 3-5 days to get them to rescan manually and remove any flags.
2. Check for any dodgy javascript libraries you might inadvertently be using. Specifically, just remove all non-relevant JS until you get approved, then you can slowly add them back in if really needed.
Super frustrating that Google has this much power, and totally ridiculous they want you to switch to .com (pretty sure that's an outsourced CS worker giving you a random suggestion).
This is a great way to be utterly replaceable in your job. "Tell me what to do" is the worst trait in an employee and puts you immediately in the "first to cut when possible" line.
> nobody will know every sport they're building a ui for, does that also disqualify them?
It makes them worse from an IC perspective, because they need hand-holding moreso than someone who gets the problem space more intuitively.
In ZIRP, it was easier to coast with what you're saying. Now, it's back to brass tacks - everyone is expected contribute and be more helpful to your boss and team in order to become more irreplaceable.

In other words, you really shouldn't rebase stuff that has been exposed anywhere outside of your own private tree. But within your own private tree, and within the commits that have never seen the light of day, rebasing is fine.
(And yes, there are exceptions. If it's a clear "throw-away tree" all the rules go out the window, of course, as long as everybody involved knows it's a throw-away tree, and know that if they pull it they have to synchronise 100% with you - so within a very tight-knit case or within a very specific small detail that is actively being worked on, those rebases with cleanups make tons of sense).

Fascinating that you had such a poor experience with FEI, but good to hear Quiet Light was a better fit. I also thought about potentially selling my business a while ago, and the broker, while nice, was just not interested in conducting anything more than a commodity transaction. So obviously we paused, but good for folks to know this is quite common, and if you're selling, always make sure your broker is aligned with you, otherwise find another.
I also want to point out, for posterity, that the HN commenters are often amazingly confidently wrong in their strong assertions. For Michael's 2023 retrospective post which got shared here, someone blithely wrote off TinyPilot as being worth "close to zero"[0]. Obviously that was not the case then, and this deal shows it.
Congrats Michael! All the best with next steps.

I remember having the usual python package hell when NeMo was updated somewhere, but it seems to be decently well maintained so give it a go.
*Edit, I remember reading somewhere that pyannote was a weak link in other repos, that might be why your other tests were not great.
What you're calling "thought police society" is basically another way of saying that "there are social norms in a particular society". This is true anywhere.
You may not like the social norms of a particular place and time, or think your rival political tribe is from the dark ages (I recommend going outside to touch grass if you're in a Western country and believe this), but the base point is that any group of people that has any sort of group cohesion has preferred social behaviours and disliked antisocial behaviours.
Part of the problem with discussions in many societies now is this false equivalency. Yes, some people might be driven to suicide due to shaming, but this is not the vast majority of people. However, NOT shaming people about their weight leads to a much larger portion of the population being fat and unhealthy, which has incredible downstream health and societal impacts.
So I disagree with your equivalency here - shame is a good social tool for the majority, and while we should certainly be on the lookout for the extreme minority who have mental health issues, we should not be throwing out good general social tools just because of a few edge cases.
