zenmaster10665··on Can Data Die? Tracking the Lenna Image
ignore the specific case here - I am talking about the general case...
zenmaster10665··on Can Data Die?
The real question is - HOW can we control data that can be screen-shotted like images? Is it really a "genie out of the bottle" or is there some technical way that we can evolve file formats to ensure the owners of an image retain control of the rights to use and reproduce that image?

You are exposing your lack of knowledge on what it means to run a multinational corporation. It isn't one lucky choice, it is strategy and execution over the long term. This is the same for any successful company.

You are misunderstanding or wilfully ignoring the details. They talk about interoperability as a key part of how this will become reality, and the fact that no single company can realise this vision...

Lol...you want him to have built more than one of the most successful businesses in history? It isn't one idea that got him here.. Everyone's a critic.
zenmaster10665··on Facebook Reports Third Quarter 2021 Results
Isnt that Facebook Groups? Interoperability is part of upcoming regulations which will facilitate the standards you mention. FB is still a company, not a nationalised infrastructure.

How is that not what is happening right now? Would you recommend users take responsibility for being custodians of their own data? If so, how will the average user keep that data safe without resources and understanding of the threats their data face?
zenmaster10665··on Facebook's own data is not as conclusive about teens and mental health
Why would it? Most people don't want that experience...

Is it social media as a technology that you feel is sad/negative? What is the negative or damage that you feel is caused to people who participate?
zenmaster10665··on Facebook's own data is not as conclusive about teens and mental health
So you prefer to use anecdotes to decide how technology is affecting society, rather than data?

Who is responsible for policing content on Mastodon or other similar decentralised social media platforms?

Like it or not some entity or group need to be responsible for handling illegal and dangerous content.

As to the article, yeah NPR receives money from a lot of places. Is anyone asking about the motivation of NYT, WSJ, etc? Just trying to remain open minded about motives on all sides!

wow - that is shocking - thank you for enlightening me with this information :(
zenmaster10665··on Coldest inhabited place on Earth is baking in record heat
that is one way of looking at it - It is strange to me that the technologies to fix the problem actually seem to be feasible, it is the willingness to build and adopt them that is lacking - I thin kit will come, but I don't think it will come fast enough to stop the drastic changes to society and climate which are coming. Unlike you, I am optimistic that there will be a solution...

great presentation - not even really a rockets guy, but I found it very interesting
zenmaster10665··on I have the coronavirus. So far, it isn't that bad
The flu is a pretty well known illness at this point.

This is a serious issue as it has a higher mortality rate than the flu, is spreading quickly and has the potential to evolve into a strain with a much higher mortality rate.

I agree people shouldn't panic, but I don't agree this is just something to be dismissed... The pandemic of 1918 has some lessons to be learned here.

zenmaster10665··on In the Shadow of Vesuvius
Interesting article but is just abruptly shifts from the fate of Pliny the Elder to Pliny the Younger...
zenmaster10665··on Adult Content Disguised as Kids Videos Is Flooding YouTube
I don't understand what the motivations for this are...does someone really think this will create revenue? Maybe by going viral or just through shock value?

zenmaster10665··on Robinhood Traders Discovered a Glitch That Gave Them ‘Infinite Leverage’
Not quite the same situation, but your point is still valid.

Leeson was hiding losses fraudulently in error accounts as a malicious internal actor.

In these cases, clients are being extended credit they likely cannot underwrite, leaving RH exposed and liable to any losses theirselves.
