kent_eh , to technology in EXCLUSIVE: Naomi Wu and the Silence That Speaks Volumes

That’s what she’s criticizing her western followers and the western media for not doing.

We don’t actually know what’s happening. She has always been concerned about Winnie the Pooh’s minions shutting her down, like they silence so many others in their country.

We have to assume that’s what happened, and if it has, we really don’t know what is the course of action likely to be helpful and not make the situation even worse for Naomi.

Trying to embarrass the Chinese government generally doesn’t make them apologize and back down.

It shouldn’t be be required to use a cloud service in order to use a piece of hardware that you bought and paid for.

I’m disturbed seeing so many of the new consumer targeted 3D printers (and so many other products) going in the “cloud required” direction.

The easiest way to find out is to boot up a live image and test on your hardware.

are now sucking deeply on the crack pipe of Republican culture wars

As are the conservative parties in Canada.

Until recently the federal conservative party had one of Trump’s co-conspirators listed as someone they had worked with. As so as he was indicted, thwy rapidly and quietly removed any mention of him.

An international group that advocates for not cooperating across international lines?

That (hopefully) seems doomed from the outset.

Russia probably saw this weakness, bet on it worsening much quicker than it did,

And helped it along as much as they could get away with.

kent_eh , to world in UNITED STATE: Minnesota Police Force Resign Over $22-An-Hour Pay

Presumably it’s a small town with a small population, so it wouldn’t need a huge police department. Just enough to have someone on shift when needed.

My small town had a 2 man police department when I was growing up.

Most of their time was spent dealing with drunk drivers. It was a small town and there wasn’t mush else to do other than drink…

Very much so.

They’ve basically been operating in startup mode for years, and haven’t bothered to transition their management systems to “decade old company with lots of employees” mode.

You can’t burn on startup mode forever without things exploding at some point.

I see it as mostly them being sloppy and moving too fast to go through the proper checks and balances.

I’ve seen far too many companies go from “a couple of enthusiastic guys” to a large organization without taking the time and effort to put in place the structures and systems so everyone knows what they’re supposed to be doing, and as important, knows what other people are doing as it relates to their work.

And inevitably there comes a point where the organization is too big for that method to keep working, and the wheels fall off.

The only real difference I see here is that this time it’s happening in complete view of the public.

Reverse your bullshit regressive policies, if you expect anyone to believe that you have “moved on”.

kent_eh , to technology in YouTube’s anti-ad blocking test gets even pushier with a new timer

I believe he is referring to the fact that YouTube don’t have to pay upfront for new content, they even get new content without hunting for it, and many smaller channels don’t have partnership and so on.

Well, sure, but on the other hand, those smaller creators couldn’t attract any attention or grow their audience without a platform to do it on. And, like it or not, youtube has that and doesn’t charge those new creators anything to use the platform (unlike platforms like Vimeo, as one example).

Most of those large profitable channels wouldn’t have been able to grow totbhwir current size without a free to use platform to spread their content to a wider audience.

There’s give and take on both sides.

Of course, the payment share on ads and memberships is fair and equitable is a separate discussion…
