techrights[sec]_I hope she is able to blog there but hopefully about TM-related material moreAug 19 03:39
techrights[sec]_than crazy matt attackign TR.Aug 19 03:39
techrights[sec]_fwiw there are now quite a few articles the last six months or so about Aug 19 03:39
techrights[sec]_the panama canal but I notice that in recent years they no longer point outAug 19 03:39
techrights[sec]_the correlation between (manmade) deforestation and the decline in rainfall Aug 19 03:39
techrights[sec]_below levels needed to operate the canal at capacity.  Cover up is not theAug 19 03:39
techrights[sec]_right word but the articles are being deceptive or dishonest about the causeAug 19 03:39
techrights[sec]_of the droughtAug 19 03:39
techrights[sec]_Yes, crazy matt /is/ a real problem at TR.  However annoying or even dangerousAug 19 03:39
techrights[sec]_he is, like "drpizza", he is just a tool which m$ uses.  Aim for the base Aug 19 03:39
techrights[sec]_of the flame when fire fighting not the smoke.  Aug 19 03:39
schestowitz-pi3that too is work in progressAug 19 03:41
schestowitz-pi3later parts will zoom in on other aspectsAug 19 03:41
schestowitz-pi3100% rianne'sAug 19 03:41
schestowitz-pi3she sometimes asks me some questions, that's allAug 19 03:41
schestowitz-pi3the series will tie in to technical aspects ("Operation Mole")Aug 19 03:41
schestowitz-pi3she already works on her next partAug 19 03:41
techrights[sec]_Rather than reposting TR material whole cloth in TM, it might be more usefukAug 19 03:42
techrights[sec]_useful to have a summary and then link to TR.  Aug 19 03:42
schestowitz-pi3TM is the /main/ version, TR is the copyAug 19 03:42
schestowitz-pi3that's by her choiceAug 19 03:42

schestowitz-pi3sorry, multitasking too muchAug 19 03:53
schestowitz-pi3encoding the relevant bits of will's talk atmAug 19 03:53
techrights[sec]_I guess while I like both TR and TM, there is a distinction between theirAug 19 03:58
techrights[sec]_goals and purposes and a need to keep things separate at some level.  OtherwiseAug 19 03:58
techrights[sec]_one blog will suffice. Aug 19 03:58
techrights[sec]_Getting rid of incel crazy matt is a priority but again he's a rep of m$ Aug 19 03:58
techrights[sec]_Will's talk had some gems.  Aug 19 03:58
techrights[sec]_Oh good you were able to get a download of the recordingAug 19 03:58
schestowitz-pi3TM already has a lot of "opininated" stuff, even the blog in tm-oldAug 19 04:00
schestowitz-pi3so this isn't unchartered territoryAug 19 04:00
schestowitz-pi3only christine hall once complained about itAug 19 04:00
schestowitz-pi3also complained about rejection of "let GAFAM encrypt" (LE)Aug 19 04:00
techrights[sec]_Yes opinionated is find.  So is compartmentalization.   Material on TM shouldAug 19 04:01
techrights[sec]_nor be mirrored verbatim on TR, and vice versa.          Aug 19 04:01
techrights[sec]_s/find/fine/Aug 19 04:01
schestowitz-pi3from an 'SEO' POV, this is OKAug 19 04:05
schestowitz-pi3also, reach-wise this is very important for rianneAug 19 04:05
schestowitz-pi3she spent a long time on this and this is what she wantsAug 19 04:05
schestowitz-pi3wether us guys agree or notAug 19 04:05
schestowitz-pi3she is very upset at what the scum says about her and even parentsAug 19 04:05
schestowitz-pi3she is eager to make him pay for the doxing, the sleepless nights (abuse, ddos etc.)Aug 19 04:05
schestowitz-pi3i just told her to contain bad language in images (no alt contents)Aug 19 04:05
schestowitz-pi3so as to avoid being classified as "techdirt" 'shit'Aug 19 04:05
schestowitz-pi3people who read TM are advanced usersAug 19 04:05
schestowitz-pi3because of the site's ageAug 19 04:05
schestowitz-pi3they know the true MSFTAug 19 04:05
schestowitz-pi3caution noted: tr-new is again in timeout-y moodAug 19 04:08
schestowitz-pi3the ipfs bulletin file took about 4 attempts to uploadAug 19 04:08
schestowitz-pi3it got there at the end (phew)Aug 19 04:08
schestowitz-pi3it otherwise takes a while to manually upload and rerun from cronAug 19 04:08
techrights[sec]_has the ipfs infrastructure been kept up to date?   I'm not part of thatAug 19 04:10
techrights[sec]_but do have concerns about running unpatched software which could eventuallyAug 19 04:10
techrights[sec]_affect the rest of the services / systemAug 19 04:10
schestowitz-pi3we use a fairly recent version (this year)Aug 19 04:14
schestowitz-pi3we also pin nothingAug 19 04:14
schestowitz-pi3so we only ever circulate our own materialAug 19 04:14
schestowitz-pi3any dmca would be 100% frivolousAug 19 04:14
schestowitz-pi3ipfs is not the soft spotAug 19 04:14
schestowitz-pi3maybe some old apache exploits areAug 19 04:14
schestowitz-pi3one good practice might be closing portsAug 19 04:14
schestowitz-pi3but we need to go beyond that, over time...Aug 19 04:14
schestowitz-pi3the video will be ready soonAug 19 04:14
schestowitz-pi3it's NOT a cut, it's a re-encoding as webmAug 19 04:14
schestowitz-pi3so takes a while on 4 coresAug 19 04:14
schestowitz-pi3i think his part of that talk was a cautionary taleAug 19 04:14
schestowitz-pi3i want to be able to link to that a lot in the futureAug 19 04:14
schestowitz-pi3and have that self-contained, hosted by usAug 19 04:14
schestowitz-pi3ipfs is used a lot more than you realis Aug 19 04:14
techrights[sec]_ok good, webm is important even if the transcoding takes time and mightAug 19 04:14
techrights[sec]_slightly lose qualituyAug 19 04:14
techrights[sec]_Yes it is a cautionary tale but one which has occured time and again, yetAug 19 04:14
techrights[sec]_few to no one seem to learn the lesson imparted when it comes to m$Aug 19 04:14
schestowitz-pi3it's a quiet giant Aug 19 04:14

schestowitz-pi3"In the same way that the news media has given Gates an outsize voice in the pandemic, the foundation has long used its charitable giving to shape the public discourse on everything from global health to education to agriculture."Aug 19 05:46
schestowitz-pi3"Two years after the story appeared, the Seattle Times accepted substantial funding from the Gates Foundation for an education reporting project."Aug 19 05:46
schestowitz-pi3"When Gates gives money to newsrooms, it restricts how the money is usedβ€”often for topics, like global health and education, on which the foundation worksβ€”which can help elevate its agenda in the news media. "Aug 19 05:47
schestowitz-pi3" Since 2000, the Gates Foundation has given NPR $17.5 million through ten charitable grantsβ€”all of them earmarked for coverage of global health and education, specific issues on which Gates works."Aug 19 05:47
schestowitz-pi3"SJN says more than half of this money has been distributed as subgrants, including to Education Lab, its partnership with the Seattle Times.'Aug 19 05:48
