Google Docs (and many note taking apps) let you export to HTML as well. Word Online lets you "transform" a document into a website and gives you a link to send to others, but it's not really the same since there's preset themes and none of them are as simple as a Word/Doc/Note exported as pure HTML.

>NATO also deliberately targeted Serbia's power grid and deliberately targeted a radio/TV station during the war.

Targeting a state owned radio and TV station is well with in the laws of war assuming of course the the radio/TV station is actively aiding the war effort. In this specific case NATO targeted this radio/TV building because it acted as an important command and control node to transmit orders to Serbian military forces.

You can read more about it in the U.N.'s report on the investigation of possible NATO warcrimes in the Kosovo war: 'Final Report to the Prosecutor by the Committee Established to Review the NATO Bombing Campaign Against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia'

This report also claims with regard to targeting of power facilies

"74. Of the electrical power transformer stations targeted, one transformer station supplied power to the air defence co-ordination network while the other supplied power to the northern-sector operations centre. Both these facilities were key control elements in the FRY integrated air-defence system."

>Both of those things would cause uproar in the US media if an opponent of US geopolitical interests did them.

Russia and the Syrian targeted hospitals regularly for years and while it get coverage people in the US didn't care much able it. Hospitals are the most protected category of civilian infrastructure according to the laws of armed conflict and Russia bombed them so often there is a wikipedia article about it[1].

The difference is the skills a racing sim enthusiast has would take literal years to cultivate even if you have the ability to learn it.

Here’s a guy who went to Spec Miata as his first exposure to racing other cars from a sim:

https://www.mazdamotorsports.com/2018/02/21/john-allen-trans...

To put into perspective how insane that is, at High Performance Driving events (non competitive events where you get to drive around a track), you might expect someone to move to the advanced group where you’re still not allowed to pass in turns, and have to be pointed by after multiple years!

Some places would actually require you to take a year's worth of events just to get into a group where passing is allowed at all without an instructor in the car

This guy went straight into full on Spec Miata with purpose built cars and full on passing for his first event!

That would be like someone playing baseball for the first time in Minor League Baseball, it takes some extremely real and difficult to develop skill to do so even if it isn’t MLB...

I like this argument, too, but the common response is that Lasik and cosmetic surgeries are elective - voluntary improvements to your body that are a sort of luxury that lend themselves to competition (shopping around, taking your time). By contrast, a lot of expensive medical procedures are much more critical and time-sensitive (you could say the demand is much less elastic), which makes it a lot harder for competition to work (though more price transparency might help!), especially if as another comment says[0], "You get taken to a hospital out of your control, and they're allowed to decide what services to provide and as well as the price they're going to charge you..."

You think you misunderstood; I didn't try it and not like it, I just never tried it. I'm most productive on Vim/Terminal right now. From a quick google search, it doesn't seem like I can use all the Vim commands in an IDE (though I see some articles on using Vim AS an IDE). Have you personally tried both and preferred an IDE over Vim/Terminal?

> Maybe someone can add more examples or help explain the different outcomes for these two?

The different outcomes are largely explained thus:

Drugs with a very large demand and especially ones which are OTC and around which consumer brands can be developed (where brand identity allows a premium to be charged, substituting in some degree for the monopoly rents patents allow) are likely to continue to be manufactured after patents expire. Prescription drugs with a limited demand even if they are the best (or only) effective treatment for a particular condition are less likely to continue to be produced once patent protection expires..
I am part of the Friday Club at work, basically we have about 3/4 pints every Friday lunch time. My output on a Friday afternoon is close to zero, I cannot concentrate and really don't recommend it!
I think continuing to email Steve was his fatal mistake. It shows a manager that you are willing to jump rank at a moments notice. Some times you have to, but in this case 3 days go by and the manager says he is sick. Take him at face value and understand that managers of large corporations are extremely busy. I am sure that Steve told the manager to pull back after receiving secondary emails, realizing that this would be a high maintenance relationship in which he felt that he could ping Steve at a moments notice (a person who is even more busy)
That does not implicitly declare that a test bank is okay to study from, since it says on it that it is not for students. Any student would question to themselves whether they should use it. So ethically speaking:

1) Ask the professor before the exam if it is okay to use the test bank. He will say, of course not! Why do you have it anyway, it's not made available to students - are you trying to cheat?!

2) Astonished that the test bank was the exam verbatim (though I'm sure few students were), students should have told the professor that many students used the test bank, not realizing he would pull the questions directly from it. Of course, no one would do this directly since students aren't supposed to have the test bank in the first place ...
This bothered me too, but you can re-enable it.

It really depends on the bar.

If I'm at a pub, or basically any alcohol-based venue that has a proper food menu, then yeah, I'm likely to get charged for every drink. At a "local bar" type of operation, or something like a Royal Canadian Legion branch (I don't know what the American version of this is, but it's basically a bar for ex-service men), then I tend not to get charged. It's a designated driver thing, primarily, but they don't really care if you're actually the DD.

Last Saturday, my girlfriends work had their Christmas party, and I ordered two Cokes.

Bartender: That'll be $2.50, or are you driving?
Me: ...?
Bartender: Non-alcoholic drinks are free for designated drivers.
Me: I could say I'm driving...
Bartender: You could.
Me: pays $2.50

For restaurants, it's just like you said, margins are so high that refills are free. That first drink costs less than any single alcoholic beverage, so I save money right away, and every drink thereafter is pure profit (or more accurately, pure non-loss).
You can use the visual mode for selecting text, then operate on it with the usual vim business.

There are commands built in for a lot of actions, and if there is a right click option that the extension doesn't provide, you can always write a script to extend it. Vimperator is nicely extensible.

I'm not sure if Vim scrolling with hjkl resolves the issue you saw with the arrow keys- I'm sure that's site dependent, and you'll have to try it yourself.

Good luck!
Flippant comments aside, I'm entitled to use a competitor's product instead if I don't like how Google is treating me or the changes they are making. This is likely not the goal that Google was seeking to accomplish. I'm sure you understand that Google does derive revenue from visitors, correct?

If they want to A/B test something like that on a signed in, daily visiting member, they should offer a small explanation and an opt in/opt out option.
That's quite different from the way I understand it.

You have to specify more exactly what you mean when you say the current price is $1.92. Is it the current best (highest) bid, best (lowest) offer, or last traded price (this is generally the displayed price, but there is no guarantee that you can buy or sell at that price, since that depends on current outstanding offers and bids.

Suppose the last traded price is $1.92, and the current best bid (highest price anyone is willing to pay) is $1.90 and the best offer (lowest price anyone is willing to sell) is $1.95. You can either decide to buy from the best offer or bid higher than the current best bid and hope to find a seller.

Where HFT comes in is in that the increased amount of money and number of participants in the market tends to cause the difference between the best bid and best offer prices ("the spread") to go down, making it cheaper for everyone to enter and exit the market as they wish. This is the market making effect hugh3 referred to above.

Please note I am not an expert and may turn out to be wrong on some of this.

Optimizing for the majority is not always a good thing as it can result in bad outcomes for minorities.
I think you're being pretty disingenuous here. It is very unusual for anything to come up overnight and being paged is the last resort. If there was a sleepless night, we'd make sure you weren't oncall anymore that week. Oncall is about being available to be called within a certain amount of time, not being awake to keep an eye on things. Software keeps an eye on things.

Nobody thinks a 24 hour oncall rotation is optimal, which is why companies distribute themselves throughout the world and simply have people at work somewhere 24 hours a day. But even at companies like Google, it's not always possible. You have to balance working on a small team and moving quickly versus having triple dev-team redundancy.

Some other workarounds are:

1) Hire someone to be awake during off hours. They won't be around with the rest of the team, so probably won't have the same understanding of the service that they are responsible for supporting. Personally, I've never seen this work well -- both teams see each other as "out of sight, out of mind" and don't really help each other.

2) Ignore all issues between 5PM and 9AM. This is quite possible to do, and might be the right thing for certain companies.

3) Hope nothing bad happens, and when something bad does happen, call everyone on the team frantically hoping someone will be awake and answer your call.

Like I said, I'm happy with the balance I have at work. I think it gives our customers the confidence they need to trust us, while giving engineers a decent work-life balance. I'm just some random engineer; I didn't start this company or force this upon others. I chose it for myself.

I shared my experience because I think it's relatively unique (with the OP's experience of mandatory uncompensated work the norm), and I like it.

You wrote "honest intellectual reasons".

I pointed out that Sanford's reasons do not seem to fall into that category, in that they have been refuted, and he continues.

Once they are given a hearing, and found wanting, do they get another hearing? And another? And another?

How many hearings is enough before we say it's no longer an honest reason?

You answer seems to be "as many as they want, otherwise it's censorship."
price schedules that have different rates based on the time of day.

That's better than 24/7 flat, but is not a solution for dealing with spikes in demand or fluctuations in supply. Minute-by-minute spot pricing is the solution for that. With the ubiquity of the internet, and low cost for IoT, it's feasible, practical, efficient, and effective.
Actually, no. More like an attempt is inevitable.
I think we might be discussing slightly different aspects of the same thing. While I think there are certainly actions that the government takes which promote gentrification, I feel like the resistance to it can create communities which actually make the area more appealing to the next wave of gentrification!

For example, a squat populated by artists might actually provide more affordable housing for artists while simultaneously making the area more "bohemian" and appealing to the young professionals that like that kind of thing.
Inflation is measured with the price of a basket of goods. Inflation is not measured in terms of the CHF-EUR exchange rate. If you keep your equation x = y + z then yes there will not be an inflation in terms of EUR but the basket can (and will!) still be subject to inflation. Because the EUR is not equal to basket of goods. Nobody is going to import croissants because then they'd be days old and taste like shit.
My thoughts are that it is something of a headache, but the benefits of the language outweigh the pain-points, like this one, in many cases. I'd guess it's seen as one of the trade-offs you need to make for using a pure functional language. (I've yet to see many other languages with a type system as expressive as haskell).
I think the difference is that it would be less interesting to me.

What I like about this article is that it's (for me) a rare case of an article that doesn't highlight the advantages of being a man, or the disadvantages of being a woman.

Others have said Windows. I'd say Windows Phone, too. It might be missing some things I'd like (Google stuff like Hangouts and Plus, which will likely never come) but otherwise it's a great OS, stable, fast, well designed and consistent.
And yet America (assuming the colloquial 'America' that means 'The US') developed the atomic bomb and put a man on the moon. Could any single individual or small group of individuals have accomplished this? I doubt it. It takes a nation worth of resources and organization to pull these things off.

This isn't well written (mind you, I'm not talking about the rest of the article which I don't have a strong opinion about):

> He even considered naming his invention “TIM” (ostensibly an acronym for “The Information Mine”) before mercifully settling on the less solipsistic “World Wide Web”. In 1994, he founded the World Wide Web Consortium (= W3C) and became its director, a position he has held since.

That's a plain and simple personal attack. An unnecessary one as well. What is inherently wrong with naming something after yourself which you invented? I mean, isn't that what companies do as well? Apple Lisa? Branding such as calling all your products Microsoft <insert name>?

(At first I got puzzled by TIM as for me it stands for The Incredible Machine from around that time.)
Because bits aren't stone markings on graveyards. If you want they can last as long as the service does, which is a fine cut-off. Otherwise you get the same trouble with every other kind of method of authentication: after your ID is recycled whoever picks it up again even after it has been carefully scrubbed will inherit all the inbound links and so on. That doesn't really happen with gravestones.
There are lots of permanently suspended accounts that have basically been squatting on a useless name for a decade.

This is my plan (in action) for an offline GPS nixie tube clock. I'm not sure about what is the right choice for options. Many are nice-to-have features for people like me, who would be the most likely to want a clock like this (snmp to host drift, jitter, and temperature mrtg logs), but come at the mild cost of security.

Will those who receive this bother to connect it to networks? Should I even enable network/GUI for those who want to tinker easily? How should the password be handled?

I'm considering two extremes:

1. A raspbian lite headless system with all unnecessary peripherals disabled and no network features.

2. A full installation, GUI and all with HDMI and network enabled so it's easy for people to play with it if they want.

I'm leaning towards 2 because I think it would be nice to have a clock that auto updates leap seconds and the tzdata db. If I go for 1, that opens up the possibility of using a raspi zero (non-W) for a real BOM and power savings.

As for the password: I'm thinking of having something short and simple other than "raspberry" that the user can/should change. This seems like standard practice with many enterprise systems.

I could be wrong but this album (which I've had on CD for years) might be the only studio recording that has both Chick and Metheny. My favorite part is Chick's solo on the Gershwin tune "Soon". Some of his phrases are just loaded with a feeling of nostalgia that just hits me every time.

Security by obscurity replied to hacking. You don’t hack google. You’re analogizing from the completely wrong situation.

The closer analogy is stock trading. Prices move on news. If you have advance knowledge of news, you’re rich. If you learn, for example, that google will soon start favouring links from aged domains, then you buy as many aged domains as you can.

If you learn that google will devalue links from aged domains, then you have two weeks to rid your network of such links.

And if you are a spammer who gets this information from australian news insiders, then you can beat your competition by moving faster.

When the algo changes are released to everyone at once, it’s like how stock markets function: everyone learns the same thing at the same time.

As for why they don’t mention it, perhaps it is too complex to explain in what is clearly a complex topic. Most people who don’t build websites have no idea of the cat and mouse that goes on with seo.

Are you seriously denying that spammers game search engines and try to keep up with algorithms? Look up the black hat seo industry.

It’s on par with denying programmers use keyboards or something. You’re trying to deny a fundamental fact of reality.
