Poppycock and fiddle-faddle. We allowed these things and did it to ourselves.

I actually did what this article suggests in college. It didn't go well grade wise. However, I had money and time to study and learn about things I wanted to learn. I found that my path often was interwoven with the path of the class, but that the perspective was different and sometimes professors are only grading on perspective--specifically their own. The biggest dividing line is, I suspect, that college does not, at this point teach one how to think. How to think and good grades are not necessarily the same thing at all. I was busy learning how to think, and deciding what could be relegated to "It's in a book, I can find it if I need it" vs "I should memorize this because it will be useful in life for me later".

With all the domain buying out and weirdness, it is my fervent hope people seriously begin reconsidering what it means to have a domain name and to implement other structures to serve out names as opposed to the now, obviously bought and sold, DNS.

I'm not sure "useful content" should be the only metric. Think of all the things you learn in school that you think are useless until later.

The concept of this looks neat, although I am not sure I understand all the use cases yet.

All water connects, sooner or later. The problem should be fixed if for no other reason on account of this fact.

Uh, that's not how any of that works. Rather, that's how it worked for the article writer.

I understand the basic issues involved here. Both countries are doing very odd things when it comes to information and privacy. However, I feel like making this a "country issue" is really not exactly the right horse to ride on. Rather, I think it should be stated due to the security policies of these governments, we are banning them as information safeholds at this time or something of the sort. Then, the issue is LESS the country, and more the governmental informational policies.

Very neat link. It is true that if you cannot create it, you are simply borrowing someone else's idea and treating it like your own.

The timing of this event is curious. Hasn't this been an issue since almost the inception of web browsers?

Sounds like some body-snatching took place along with the ultimate in cultural appropriation.

Oftentimes. I gave you an upvote just because sometimes around here you will get downvoted because the gods of zeitgeist decide it must be so.

It means those guys weren't innovative enough to keep making them money in some way that they wished they would.

So here is a prime example of a government using the power to censor the internet during a revolution...

I just wrote a post yesterday about why you should not, in fact, trust cloudflare. https://www.jbschirtzinger.com/post/doh/

There is no defending Epstein. Though I think Stallman has made many valuable contributions to free software, I think he has fallen on his sword on this one for no good reason.

I suspect if you take away tenure being based upon publication, you will find that many statistical measures become more honest. You can abolish statistical significance, but it won't stop the abuse of knowledge, which is the real problem here anyway.

Irrelevant. The Supreme Court is wrong in its decision in that case, and that interpretation of the First Amendment is equally incorrect.

So cloudflare basically fucks over 8chan over some skimpy mass shooting evidence, and now has a public offering as a corporate company? Get rid of free speech as internet police and sell stock and make millions?

I think it is a bit sad that the only connection people really had to him was in the gaming world. I doubly think that it is sad that acceptance came only in the form of a denial of sorts of his actual reality.

Yeah, we had some weird experiences at an Air B and B which seemed to be part of an ongoing attack that we were experiencing at the time. You can read about all that here if you are so inclined:https://www.scribd.com/document/389212460/Antisemitism-in-We...

Did you find an example of this in that link somewhere?

I wonder what the expenses are of the site such that the shutdown warranted shuttering the site?

Star Trek and critical? Is that like a warp core breach red alert type of criticism?

Did the network card in question also send blue flashes up into the sky?

I suppose it is easy to say that the objective of the card game wasn't money, but yet there's that 25,000 black lotus despite all the attempts to make it otherwise...

An opinion that is politically fueled should not allow this form of "shaming" unless we want to throw free speech out the window. Our small church was "Targeted" because I gave some advice to a gay woman who asked for it about her kids. She then tried to wreck our lives over the asked for advice.

Others got on the "Band wagon" at different intervals. Whatever the justification is for such behavior, ultimately there is no justification.

How does this differ from IPFS?

The origin of the letter "e" might be helpful in the interpretation of this event: http://www.templestudy.com/2008/02/17/the-origin-of-the-lett...

Having a soul mate does not obviate hard work. A better title to this article might be "There are no "easy buttons" in marriage."
