It's been done before with things like the Better Business Bureau.
These kinds of initiatives tend to start taking money from businesses so they get a better rating and oftentimes end up as basically an extortion racket. Though sometimes they're just straight up bought out by big corporation and suddenly that corporation and it's business partners get great scores.
Do you want democracy or do you want to impose your idea of a utopia onto others through authoritarianism?
Nah I'm not bound by political "categories" because I'm actually capable of thinking about issues. But sure go on believing the complexities of humanity can all be placed onto some arbitrary one-dimensional line. Come up with as much terminology as you can to make that sound like a smart way to understand the world LOL.
the ending is basically just going so far that the game stops working.
Seems even more appropriate for a game from the Soviet Union.
Avoiding 403 seems like a security through obscurity approach to me.
I suppose there might be some special admin only endpoints you'd want to 404 on if the user is not an admin. But for most cases it's really hell integrating an API that 404s on everything... is my token invalid, did I set a parameter wrong, or did I get the path wrong? I guess I gotta spend all day doing trial and error to figure it out. Fun!
Also makes integration tests on your security unreliable. Someone renames an endpoint and suddenly your integration tests aren't actually testing security anymore. Checking for 403 and getting a 404 because someone renamed something will indicate the test needs to be updated to use the new path. Checking for 404 (because the user isn't supposed to have access) and getting 404 (because the path was changed) means your test is useless but you won't know it was rendered useless.
Pffft... I'm building a 12th generation fighter in my garage. It'll be called the F-9000 SuperThunderLightningHog. You just wait and see!
If by "far right" and "far left" you mean people that prefer authoritarian forms of government over democracy, then yeah, it's not all that much different. From my discussions with MAGAs and tankies I've concluded they're the same kind of people, they just quote different talking points.
Yeah it would be great to change 230 so that at the very least tech companies are liable for the content their algorithms recommend to people. Seems akin to publishing something so should have the same liability.
But that's not what's happening here. They want to repeal it entirely, this will create problems, which will give leeway for Trump to use EOs to resolve it, regardless of whether that's legal. This will likely end up with Trump deciding what's allowed on social media.
The point of section 230 was to allow sites to do moderation without that resulting in liability. Without it the lemmy instances couldn't operate in the US without being sued into oblivion. What's lacking from the CDA is anything about sites using recommendation algorithms to push content. Because that kind of thing didn't exist in 1995, when the law was written.
My general rule is that people that are super upset about the monarchy don't have very many real problems in life.
The great feature of the monarchy is that it's a lightning rod for idiots. People who are subservient can be subservient to someone non-political that doesn't have any power. And pretend revolutionaries that don't have any grasp of any real issues show themselves to be the non-serious people they are.
Still very committed to being uncommitted, even while other people are facing hardship. Will you still be uncommitted when you're facing hardship from the MAGAs?
Don't know how it is in Europe, but here in Canada we have marketing boards to ensure that we're always producing more food supply than needed. Because it's kinda bad to have less food than needed, so we want to have a little bit of margin to ensure that doesn't happen. BTW this is why food is a contentious trade issue with the US, we don't want to be dependent on food production that has no safety margin.
Anyway, it's very possible countries are producing more than they need and could supply the US with the excess. It may not meet all of the demand in the US, but it would help bring down the price a bit. Yes the prices wouldn't be the same as it was before the Avian flu outbreaks, but it would be lower than it is now.
It's something that could happen if Trump didn't burn all the goodwill with all of the allies of the US. According to Trump "We don't need anything they have." So you will pay more for things, because Trump thinks you don't need them.
Are you saying you don't like being a democracy with laws?
