from what i’ve read, ALL email ( possible 0.000something tolerance/error ) goes through google’s mail-transfer-agents.
If they want a copy of every email that goes across the internet, they’ve got the saturation-of-core-servers to have that.
There simply isn’t any way to bypass that.
on an irrelated note, i wish public key encryption had been normalized, & worked right…

AND THERE ARE ENTIRE PROGRAMMING-LANGUAGES WHICH HAVE HARDCODED GITHUB AS THEIR ROOT SOURCE!!
rotflmao…
Exactly the same as Canada presuming that the US was somehow “inherently” on our side, forever …
Non-autonomy bites one in the ass!
It isn’t IF, it’s WHEN.
Nobody’ll learn in-time, then, it looks like…
( both Haskell & Julia seem to have hardcoded it into many packages, or into the language+libraries themselves, to great extent…
Try setting-up a project in either language, with no github-username…
they deemed that to be universally a problem…
codependency isn’t synergy: it is suckerpunching-in-the-making. )

“Not sure why downvoted”
Many find “me” unacceptable/offensive.
Downvoting me is fine: it makes them happy, & I don’t value such “social-validation” delusion.
They’re making the world be more the way they want!
Isn’t that worth something?
Integrity’s worth more to me than “friends”, so human-“reality” & I are on divergant-paths…
My continuum/soul won’t be getting caught in this-world again, if I succeed.

but that map was made by people who were doing the traditional measuring, not “are women in the work they want to be in”, but "are women & men equally-represented in the various employments.
Pinker’s book make it absolutely-clear that that is mis-measuring/mis-representing the question.
& having spoken with people from the Soviet Union in my life, Susan Pinker’s describing true fact.
Evidence backs that it’s real.
Much excellent work shows that self-talk programs culture.
The research that showed that if people don’t have a word for a concept, that concept tends to be not-discussable.
There is a book “They have a word for it” which was on words the English didn’t have, but needed, because the concepts needed to be discussed.
The not-differentiating-blue in languages which don’t have a word for blue, is also evidence.
Yes, human-languages do program our thought to fit the languages we’re living-in/through.
Deem that to be incompeten bullshit all you want: it’s fact.
I’ve been told that to start a fight among Quebecois, ask them to answer, definitively, whether grapefruit are female or male, in their language.
You contempt my accepting a bilingual-person’s experience as valid, AND you try pretending that I didn’t understand that the point was about language, not about citrus-fruit having mamallian-gonads.
You’re really scraping the bottom of the barrel, eh?
Your presuming that nobody takes language-gender seriously-enough to get honestly mad about, is … ludicrous.
You obviously never met people who live that way, but that non-experience isn’t universal.
Ad Hominem against Shlain … isn’t falsification of what he put in 1 book of his.
I don’t care if someone said something, before a truth they spoke, or after it, that wasn’t true: that isn’t relevant to whether what they said, that was pertinent & true, was pertinent & true.
I’ve known people who’ve lived in both Europe, Canada, & Latin America.
Their life-experience backs what I said.
Carve it in Eternity, Hoomin…
I can’t respect anybody who plays your “intellectual” game.
& you might as well downvote EVERYthing I’ve ever said, to make the world better for your-kind.
While I don’t ever want to see the pseudo-thinking you shove, I’ll not downvote you, because I want people seeing your “proofs”.

Thanks, but the medical-gaslighting my life was subjected to, is done.
Absolute-healing or death, not their gaslighting “help”.
I find it nearly-impossible to translate complex thoughtshapes into linear-English, & there is no language for expressing thoughshapes themselves.
Also, having survived literal brain-decimation ( 1970’s-1980’s, epigenetic-disorder ) force-fighting my remaining-brain to work is also exhausting.
I’d rather evolve & die-alone than compromise my life the way your desired “help” of me, would molest my life again.
You probably don’t have the decades of experience with being as-forced-as-possible to just drug myself into being an acceptable psychiatric-zombie,
instead of forcing my brain to improve.
I spent literally years much-of-the-time-catatonic with brain-injury, & they wanted me warehoused & on-drugs for the rest of my life.
Fuck that shit.
Feel free to terminate my life, if my life, itself, its-own-way, offends you, though…
Not that I expect you, whom I’m replying-to, would,
but all the people who find “me”/my-life unacceptable/intolerable …
… honest breaking my life, instead of trying to enforce drugged “living”, being animate-but-not-ALIVE…
…would be more authentic, more honest.
& if anybody ever does smash my life to smithereens, no matter what reason they had for doing it, I don’t want them prosecuted for ANYthing.
Because it’d be honest.
& honesty is something that this-world has nearly-none of.
Doctors doing all they can to enforce drugged-zombie condition on a life because brain-healing “isn’t real: belief in brain-healing is itself mental-illness!”
Go read Dr. Norman Doidge’s books, & see that brain-healing’s real.
Better to die clean, than to “live”, drugged, for the “mental illness” of having a literally-decimated brain.
Brain-injury is brain-injury, not “illness-of-mind”.
So, while you mean well,
I’d rather you axe-murder my-life, than drug me the way they drugged me, because honest condition is better, for me.
Cheers.

Competitive-narcissism:
I expect ALL such sociopaths/psychopaths ( incorporated-“persons” or individuals ) to be competing against each-other.
Why would they share??
There’s peer-reviewed research published that doctors demand their own CT-scan of a patient, even if an already-existing recent-scan is on file, even though that’s going to increase that-patient’s cancer-likelihood…
Narcissism’s real!
It alters behavior in predictable ways…

We’re actually talking about distinctly-different processes:

Then you don’t understand slavery deeply-enough:
They can outright remove-human-validity-from all lives except their-own, & they’ll still have “business” happening.
Citizens are not required outside of oligarchs…

Humankind’s history is waaay worse than you’re understanding.

I’m declaring here that it is produced by whole-population left-hemisphere-dominance distortion, produced by lopsided “education” displacing R-Mode mind from our lives.
I & others experienced greater-ambidexterity after working-through Betty Edwards’ “Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, the 4th Definitive Edition”, with toothy-paper & charcoals, working through the exercises, & experiencing the visceral sentience-shift that R-Mode produces …
… and all the people who won’t do the experiment who contempt that as delusional bunk, can take their axioms-and-authority-based Scientism & go eat rocks.
Here is the book, for anybody with the scientific-integrity to honestly do the experiment: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/drawing-on-the-right-side-of-the-brain

I, for one, really appreciate your post, & once I saw the new $1,200 USD entry-level-fee for using Xilinx/AMD FPGA’s in Linux … well, that means I’ll have to buy some other brand, for that learning.

it is a suite of software for creating virtual-integrated-circuits within field-programmable-gate-arrays ( FPGAs ), for people who want to fake an integrated-circuit, or who want the most-extrememly-fast compiler, or some such thing, hardware-accelerated.

I’ve read that the fastest Haskell compiler ever made was in an FPGA )

The ONLY reason I can see for gov’t or big-tech to be wanting to be doing that, at the obscene-cost of doing it,
is non-accountability: no oversight, no search-warrants, no nothing, ever.
Permanent non-accountability, permanent exemption-from-rule-of-law.
Which is itself good reason to prevent it from happening, were gov’t actually-responsible…

check your permissions, & then check, on google, what those perms allow…

As former mafia man ( Firenzese, or something ) said:
once they’ve got enough all-pervading leverage on you, then you cannot win: the leverage locks.
I’m misphrasing it, and he was speaking about the mob, but the principle is true, globally not only in the context he was speaking.
All of surveillance-capitalism is rooted in putting the subjects/serfs in a panopticon, & never letting them out, squeezing them all until the individuals die, being replaced by new inmates, but the population-as-a-whole never would be tolerated to escape…
Perfect industrialized parasitism.
