United States, insulin is very expensive—that cost was likely a large proportion of the $176 billion in medical expenditures incurred by diabetes patients in 2012 alone.

Well, the report itself says:

prescription medications to treat complications of diabetes (18%)

So this is up to $31.68 billion in 2012. I will assume for simplification that all of it goes for insulin.

There are about 20 million patients in US (according to http://www.diabetes.org/diabetes-basics/statistics/). So this puts us into $100-150 in a month range for the insulin.

I don't think they had a choice in the matter. Form 10-Q[0] are mandatory for public companies, and apparently precious metal holdings have to be listed. (The article links to Overstock's form 10-Q)

Sure, it's dumb for them to reveal that the precious metal is physically held in Utah, but then again they're a Utah-based company and gasoline is probably a scarce commodity in whatever apocalypse fantasy they're imagining, so it's not hard to put it together.

PGP-email-based messaging on kickstarter using your own infrastracture
eZing is a messaging app that closes follows concepts of well-known messengers to achieve the same comfortable reading and writing of messages. The transport to be used is E-Mails, using standard IMAP-servers. Messages are locally encrypted and forwarded. Decryption takes place at the recipients device. Necessary keys are generated within the app so the private key never leaves the device while the public key is transmitted to the chat partners.

This is very, very true. Anyone who has worked at a telco should've heard the "we don't want to be a dumb pipe" argument. The thing is: they can't be more than that! I don't want their applications, they are not very good at doing applications. I don't want their content, they don't seem to get content production at all. Even their research, it has become less and less relevant.

As a customer, I'd rather see all that money spent on efficient ways of transporting bytes, or even directly subsidizing the customer bill (so that they can support smaller ARPUs). But no; I have to pay extra to support the entertainment of their engineers, in order to get sub-optimal apps and content.

>Merchants in Greece would have been happy to take your cash if you had it.

That worked in Greece because they used the Euro, which meant that the currency was solvent based on its association with countries that had better credit than Greece itself.

If the US had a Greek-style loss of credibility, the dollar would surely take a massive hit, as its value lies solely on our credibility. Since we don't have a Germany to point to as the currency's savior, it's very possible that American vendors wouldn't accept cash (USD) and would prefer something that has value independent of governmental decree (precious metals).

I don't see this scheme working. It would require a whole bunch of sensors and a chunk of local computing power to make a 'kill' decision (or at least, an attempt to immobilize) on an individual in a crowded space based on the reliable detection of bullets fired from a gun. The kill device could be disabled prior to discharging a fire-arm, it could trigger falsely, it could be made to trigger falsely on purpose and it could malfunction. I'm sure that if you pitch this idea to the right party they'll shower you with money, nothing like more security theater and false feelings of safety to get big $.
Where is "somewhere", the kernel only has a finite amount of memory. It's still a denial of service, whether it occurs in the kernel, or a user-space program. The point is that in order to service legitimate clients, the initial request must be buffered somewhere.

For the 1rtt case, the request isn't sent till the TLS connection has been established. The attackers would have to keep track of these TLS connections, so this doesn't seem like a DoS vector.

For 0rtt the attackers might not need to keep track of state, allowing them to simply send TLS 1.3 requests, and overload the server's memory. My question is whether this is a legitimate concern.

Can you spare us the pontification? My issue with H1s is when employees that are clearly qualified are fired and forced to train cheaper replacement. H1 is about filing shortages not about helping Disney save money.

The same crowd that supports unlimited immigration, ironically oppose free trade. If it's ok to let in $60,000 engineers because there is a shortage of professionals willing to work for $60,000, why is it not ok to let in tarrif-free cars because people don't want to spend $20k on a Chevy?

There is no shortage of software devs. There is a shortage of software devs willing to work for $60k. The H1 system ought to be for exceptional cases such as a data scientist proficient in R, Haskel and Ruby which experience on mobile API design. It shouldn't be for effectively entry or mid level work. Many of the Infosys and Tata engineers with whom I have worked have been reasonably competent, but far from spectacular and some have been downright dangerously incompetent. Not a single one has been a field-leading expert.

Someone mentioned about what if plumbers were the primary recipient of H1s.. That would be interesting because it would expose the scam that is the enterprise-level H1 system.

It's about cheap labor (generally) and not about some imagined shortage of people. Honestly, outsourcing firms ought to be excluded from H1 eligibility; only primary employers should be allowed to apply. The program should also have more oversight. For example, you claim you can't find an engineer that can work in C and interact with SOAP APIs. Before your H1 request is allowed to proceed, the government (or quasi-government) should then be allowed to send you US resident prospects that meet your requirements. If there are none, then you get the H1 application processed. Essentially affirmative action for US citizens and resident. If you are unwilling to hire the employee, you would need to justify why. Salary discussions would be forbidden until after you make a hiring decision. If you say yes but the salary is too high, then there would be kind of an arbitration system.

My point is that H1 is about lower cost most of the time and has little to do with an actual shortage.

5 Mistakes Students Make While Writing an Assignment
Everyone wants to save gold, but when money is literally worth absolutely nothing, you don't want gold, you probably want to barter food for useful items like ammo, guns, gasoline and car parts, as well as other things that actually are beneficial to your survival. Gold wont really offer much, you can't eat it, if you can make weapons with it then you're (excuse the pun) golden.
It wouldn't require "a bunch of sensors". Anyway, generally you're referring to technical challenges, all of which could be readily solved.
Food is definitely more valuable than gold when society collapses to the point where people can't get food anymore.

Related example: http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/08/19/american-world-war-ii-p...

Although the food is artificially scarce in that case, it shows that people value what's necessary for survival above trinkets when they're required to do so. Gold having value presupposes some amount of social cohesion.

I think that simple content such as blogs, news and the equivalent should not be implemented in js-dependent web apps.

Web browsers are a platform for sure, but the simple content should stay simple.
Didn't know about policeman and looks really, really, nice. Will definitely give it a try! I love the idea of writing my own rules.

As for including jquery from google, of course and for good reasons, even from the user's perspective. The main one, of course is that chances are that your browser already has it cached (from other site that uses it), so retrieving it and loading it is (almost) instant.
Why? I really don't understand how this is the solution. Ok, so a lot of sites use JS in a wrong way or too much of it, but I think the root problem cant be fixed by forcing a technology solution.
>This is an insanely bad idea. I understand where you're coming from, but think about how that would play out in real life.

Make it a sane number, and it's not gonna play that bad at all. The only problem would be them claiming "if I had more allowable targets I would have caught this or that case before it happened" etc. Which we should just ignore.

After all, before they got these modern toys, they used to be content with 1/1000000 the available targeting that they have now.

In the seventies and eighties even, to target somebody involved lots of people actually in the streets, a semi-manual process to record his phonecalls (and you had to go through them with a real person, no keyword triggering etc), no "web" and other records automatically available etc. Checking half or all of the US at once at the scale we do today was not an option, not even 1/100000 that. You could ask for phone records and a couple other items at best.

> The end result is that the collection of abstractions should model the problem domain.

Sure, but that doesn't imply that individual objects/classes should model individual abstractions 1-to-1, as would be the case for the typical Vehicle, Car, Boat example classes.
Right so there's a thing we call time which is to do with how we experience the world around us. There is also a mathematical object of the same name which is part of a model which provides accurate predictions about how things behave. The more successful predictions a model has, the less likely it is that the model is fundamentally inaccurate. But although our perception of time is undoubtedly related to the thing represented by the mathematical object we also call time, they are not the same thing. One is a mathematical object, the other is a subjective experience.

I'm not sure which report you're looking at, but "prescription medications to treat complications of diabetes" means things like painkillers for neuropathy, antibiotics for infections, et cetera. Insulin falls under "antidiabetic agents", which treat diabetes itself, not the complications.

But most of the 20 million diabetics in the US are type 2 and do not require insulin; it's only Type 1s and the most severe cases Type 2s who take insulin.

>I think it's the asymmetry of the relationship. Pranking another human is an interaction of equals.

A tennis match is an interaction of equals (if you're at a comparable skill level).

Pranking hardly, since the prankster knows things the other person does not, and even puts elaborate plots and props against his prank target.

And of course some pranksters have whole teams to help them out (e.g. some college prank where 3 persons prank another etc). Or even whole crews, as in TV pranks.

The reason I don't consider it inhuman (inherently I mean, sometimes it can be when overboard) is that while it causes a little stress/surprise etc, it's usually good natured, and don't mean to do actual harm to the target.

Ahh, but it isn't working. Every site you visit gives a certificate error.

Don't worry though, you just need to install the Comcast Connect app and all will be well.
I would hope not, because by a similar argument adblockers and userscripts would also be illegal. I don't agree with what Comcast is doing, but using this argument could end up with an even worse slippery slope that leads to users not being able to consume content/customise their computing environment in the way they choose to. On the other hand, if Comcast is your ISP, all your traffic does pass through equipment owned by Comcast, which --- if you believe in being able to have control over your devices --- they should likewise also have the right to control. All the traffic on my home network goes through an adblocking proxy, and I could do things like http://www.ex-parrot.com/pete/upside-down-ternet.html if I really wanted to. I certainly do want to maintain control over the traffic within my network.

In many areas of the country, the cable companies basically have localized monopolies on high speed internet. They claim they have competition in DSL and satellite (!!!) but these technologies just can't compete on speed in this day and age, leaving cable as the only viable alternative. From what I gather, this is one of the reasons why Google started Google Fiber.
That happens at the user's choice at the user's machine, and isn't being distributed any further. The ISP distributes this modified content to their "customers".

I believe the browser should be exactly what it is, without using javascript. I'll always block javascript, whitelisting sites which 1) fail to work without it and 2) which i really want to visit. If you need javascript to present information then you're either not a very good developer or else you don't care about the user experience. Degrade gracefully; you can still display text and images without javascript and a lot of people don't want a lot of high-risk fluff just because you're proud of your use of add-ons.
You can't ask the government to protect your salary from foreign competition and idolize the free market in the same breath. The fair price of labor is at the intersection of supply and demand.

Absent government interference, that includes supply and competition from foreign workers who, surprise, by and large do not feel exploited making more in a year than their parents back home make in a decade.
I wouldn't say there's no competition per se, but some areas are limited based on who has lines out there. For example, the area I live in at Augusta only offers Wow! as a cable provider; over priced reseller. But, I was fortunate enough to land a decent contract- more channels than Wow! and for 1/4 the price- with Dish. Satellite vs. Cable, but I'm willing to take that trade off for a better price point. Plus there's always NetFlix/Hulu.

Sadly JavaScript or "the language of the web" is going towards binary rather then openness. The big sites like Google already obfuscate their code so it's hard to see what it does.

I learned JavaScript by viewing other peoples source code, witch was as easy as right clicking and selecting view source.

Unless we want more people to disable JavaScript, we need to keep it open source and transparent!
It's the only solution. You can't force people to not use it, and it's a very good solution (whitelisting is only a click away).

It have thought for a while now that the web and correspondingly the browser should be bifurcated into a content platform with no client side code and an application platform without the burden of the older technologies. The browser would provide all the interactivity and logic for the content platform through implementations of standard html tags. For the application platform, the browser could provide a more convenient set of apis sort of like plugins did before.
