Did I miss something? How is Apple creating a Social Credit Score?

Is it referring to that “people feel like an outcast because they show up as green on their friend’s iMessage screens” nonsense?

TGF was definitely what got me started in programming as a kid. Super intuitive to learn and use before I was 'ready' to use a text-based language.

Exactly! Extremely frustrating that the rest of the quote wasn't included.

"Having made that decision we now need to talk about why it is so dangerous. I’ll be posting something on our blog later today. Literally, I woke up in a bad mood and decided someone shouldn’t be allowed on the Internet. No one should have that power."

His Gizmodo quotes are somewhat revealing as well:

“We need to have a discussion around this, with clear rules and clear frameworks. My whims and those of Jeff [Bezos] and Larry [Page] and Satya [Nadella] and Mark [Zuckerberg], that shouldn’t be what determines what should be online,” he said. “I think the people who run The Daily Stormer are abhorrent. But again I don’t think my political decisions should determine who should and shouldn’t be on the internet.”

How does the underlying technology of this differ from Filecoin?

Swarm is integrated into Ethereum, it's supposed to be part of how contracts operate, so they can provision storage and similar automatically, for example.

edit: Swarm also has a bit of a better technological solution and (afaik) has most benefits from IPFS, Filecoin, Siacoin and Storj.

+1 for not understanding sync. Was also looking for a way to sync transactions from bank account.

There's also hnwatch from 2Ton, written exclusively in assembler ⌘ https://2ton.com.au/hnwatch/

There's a binary in the HeavyThing tarball so you needn't assemble the thing yourself.

Otto (http://ot.to) provides a solution for converting existing trucks into semi-self-driving trucks. I'd be very interested to hear a truck drivers take on using a device like this. In my (not a truck driver) opinion, it seems like in the short term it'll be hugely beneficial to the drivers, since the government will still be mandating that drivers be in the vehicles, but in the long term will completely kill the job.

I've seen their giant demo truck parked in San Francisco. I was wondering why a huge truck had what looked like parking cameras and radar domes on top. And who in the world was driving a full size semi into SoMa just to park it on the street. Thanks for solving a mystery!

Is there a reason for lack of Safari support?

Hi ecubed! In some version of Safari, there are missing some advanced HTML5 functionalities. In the newest versions, those functionalities are implemented but they are a bit buggy. We'll surely support Safari in the future!

In his reply he mentions '(or other coffee shops) ', I would assume those are the owners he's talking about
