I'll link you to one of my other posts: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10692855 I'm not without a stake in this either...

> You bring up aiding and abetting multiple times and then end your post. I don't see your point.

When the authorities recently raided various domiciles and Mosques in France, they found a bunch of weapons. Including some stashed in a Mosque. They found extremist propaganda. Some of the Paris attackers were known to police ("fiche S").

Up until now, they let these people be. Maybe they assumed they wouldn't actually carry out their radical desires. It's hard to believe no one in their community knew about their radicalism. They were given a chance to sort it out themselves. The west has been tolerant enough of those with divergent beliefs, assuming that they'll eventually assimilate.

> Now, how that in any way reflects on the responsibility of say my father, who stays awake at night because he can't sleep, saddened about the loss of innocent life due to the recent terrorist attacks (I'm not making up a sob story here, take it how you want it), a man who happens to be a muslim, is beyond me.

Is his son a terrorist? Is his brother? To be honest, I have no doubt he'd be even more upset if you were.

And I don't think he should be punished. What is 'fair' and 'just' in life is different than reality. Is it fair that innocent French people died in the Bataclan? Is it fair that Muslims died in the Bataclan (because there WERE Muslim names on the list of the dead). Is it fair that most of ISIS' victims are Muslims? Is it fair that Saudi Arabia is beheading and dropping bombs on Shias?

Today, just now, Donald Trump called for no Muslims to be allowed into the US. Is that fair? Yesterday, the Front National had a very strong result in France, and they propose much of the same (if not worse).

I'm calling for some sort of responsibility on the part of Muslims for people who become radicalised within their communities. Maybe some of my posts are controversial and maybe I use too much hyperbole. Maybe I'm too cynical about the world.

But the rise of the FN, and other extreme-right parties does have a precedent in history. It is history repeating itself. What comes after is worse...

Methinks that wpietri is a troll.
my imagining was actually a meat-with-gravy dish, just like someone else in the article -- I think "sticky turkey" was what I had in mind.

In terms of reading more into it: I didn't get the impression that Edmund was willing to "sell everyone out" for a piece. More like, Edmund was willing to judge the white witch positively because she gave him attention and gifts. He became enchanted, both in the magical and in the mundane sense -- he was sure that she was telling the truth, that she had his best interests in mind, and therefore that anyone who viewed her negatively must have selfish ulterior motives. Whatever negative feelings he had about his siblings became magnified -- every memory of every white lie any of them had told, every mistake in judgement shown by any of them, became a reason to think they were now intentionally committing treason against the true and righteous queen of Narnia.

We've all seen that effect with someone becoming "enchanted" with a politician, celebrity, or religious figure. Their reasons for thinking highly of that person might be trivial or even stupid, but once they hold that opinion, they'll respond to criticism with anger. It's a pattern often seen with abusive relationships -- "he's just a great guy!" "he comes home drunk and chokes you" "YOU'RE JUST JEALOUS!!!!"
I think that politicians generally don't bring a framework of sufficient substance for us to criticize, and it's probably not because of fear of the critique of American voters, but rather fear of the attack ammunition they're going to give to rival political attack dog organizations.

Also, a lot of people aren't going to digest the nuances of your framework, which means very little global positive and a lot of room for misinterpretation -- more attack ammunition.
"...conspiranoid baseless claims..."
"...and the entire civilized world..."
"...suspiciously befriended with certain economic interests..."

Sorry, are you disagreeing with or supporting my position at this point? Or perhaps both?
Most nutritional claims are based on pretty thin evidence and even more scant data.

The climate researchers are able to dig back literal millions of years and chart their findings.
Why is it this article has the vague overtone of "so we can go ahead and chop it all down, right?" on it?

I think it's the "pristine myth" language. Just reeks of let-us-clear-cut-it mentality.
It's fun when you get the opposite too and they follow their support scripts regardless of your 3rd party hardware and above average knowledge of the subject:

Support: On your hardware, do x.

Me: Did it already. It reported "Y".

Support: Please do it again, following these scripted steps [what don't match my actual hardware]...

[I pretend to follow along.]

Me: Done. It reported "Y".

Support: Oh, well then...
Yeah, we can keep B-52s flying for 50 years with insane numbers of launch-land cycles, I'm pretty sure the ISS can fly for a very long time. SpaceX can already resupply it. I don't see why they wouldn't take it over.
> Even then there is a case to be made for keeping some spectrum 'open' and unlicensed lest we see it all end up owned by a handful of corporations.

I think this is the important point. Let cell carriers in and they will subscribe as many people as necessary to fill the available bandwidth. After all, that's pretty much what they are paid for.

It's like road congestion - the amount of suffering depends on people's tolerance to endure suffering, not on the amount of available resource. There will always be more people willing to watch lolcat videos on their phones if they don't stutter too badly.

Keeping some spectrum aside from big operators allows at least small LANs to operate reasonably, while opening it to them may easily end up bringing suffering to everyone.
Often the verb "to be" is implied when what's spoken is a reply to someone else's question, e.g. "My name? Steven." as a reply to "What's your name?"

Speaking in E-prime can't be separated from the other person's speech in conversation, and its rules need to deal with this situation.
Some of the current open issues worry me, this is a very very early stage project.

I will keep an eye on it and wish it the best, but I feel like Nim is still my go to (pun not intended) for "C speeds but not C level"
The questions and answers in this interview are very superficial and generic. It seems like the interview was a homework assignment...How is this on the front page?
Exactly. Even if anthropogenic global warming is somehow completely not real, the expected value of acting as if it were real is much much greater. It's kind of like Pascal's wager, except with different probabilities. And millions of scientists.
Come on man. Not everything is a conspiracy of bankers.
I don't dispute the electric cars are, overall, clean. Just that the image that Arnold is promoting with his "Gedankenexperiment", per my quote above (that electric cars are somehow 100% clean and environmentally harmless) is simply false, anti-intellectual, and unscientific.
> In an era when (white and co) americans devour all kinds of ethnic cuisines

I suspect this is the case in big cities, I don't know how broadly it holds in America. I've been in San Francisco for 4 years, so I've tried or at least been made aware of tons of ethnic cuisine, but before that I had never tried sushi and had never even seen an Indian or Thai restaurant. Perhaps the rural Midwest is the last place these things spread to. All we really had were tons of Chinese and Mexican restaurants and a smattering of French, Italian, and Japanese places, all undoubtedly as unauthentic as they come.

Yeah, in the meantime you can find most info on the Github Readme and more detailed info at http://internalpositioning.com/guide/.
Great, you don't need to believe it.

Being that it is the observed reality of the world, the causal link between human industrial activity and global warming exists no matter who or what believes it.

Since it sounds like you'd support policies that encourage pro-environmental action anyway, I'm happy for you to believe whatever you want.
Wow, Qualcomm is getting desperate to have the next thing everyone will rely on.

Really, you are hired! There is a massive CNC bender at the shop (for custom orders). Do you think we should "onlinify" it too? (is that even a word?)
> Street pastors calm down drunken aggros after closing time

At the risk of opening a Lego-built can of worms, the word aggro should not be pluralised to aggros, as it refers to the activity, not its practitioners.
I agree completely 100%. Like I said, I have many issues with her myself, and would not want her to be president. But still better than trump, who is unpredictable and incredibly racist
>Is electing an open racist really the message america wants to send to people on how their citizens feel?

Well, they elected a black president for 2 terms and I don't see things being much better off for blacks (outside of his close family).

In fact, with the recent rise in racism driven police shootings things might even be worse...

What if you're wrong? CO2 may lead to a runaway greenhouse effect, making the earth uninhabitable in the long run (turning it into a Venus look-alike).

I don't think we can risk this outcome (and the extinction of our race) just because because a couple of people think CO2 may not cause global warming.
You're dismissing their claims without actually stating them or refuting them, as do many people. I believe their claims are false, but I don't dismiss them.

Trying to wave away statements by alleging ulterior motives or lack of knowledge only empowers the opposition. Debate them rationally, and you'll start to change more views.
I see Donald Trump running for president as being nothing more than a glorified PR campaign to build his own brand. I don't think he even cares if he wins or loses, and I think it's possible he might not even accept the presidency if he were to win it as it's not worth the headache - He's a businessman first and foremost whose primary interest is in amassing wealth.

However, I do think there is one "side benefit" to his absurd, self-serving presidential campaign, and that is he is making a mockery of the US's political process and pushing it to its logical extremes, which I think is long overdue. A good democratic process should be able to prevent potential fascists from gaining power, and the fact that Trump even got this far shows the deficiencies of the system and that it needs reform. There is literally nothing stopping popular and influential celebrities like Kanye West and Kim Kardashian from running for president and winning. In fact, they've even announced their intentions to do so[1].

I'd argue that, ironically, Trump is achieving the same ends that Larry Lessig[2] hoped to achieve, albeit through very different means.

I grew up on "turkish delight" in Washington state, home of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberty_Orchards which makes "Aplets and Cotlets", Turkish Delight flavored with apples and apricots. (It's incredible)
You skipped over the bit where people are fired or forced to make groveling public apologies.
The Dutch controlled large parts of Brazil throughout the 1640s and 1650s, the French had substantial settlements in present-day Guiana and attempted to claim parts of Brazil as "France Antartique," and the English had a number of failed colonies in Amazonia and the Rio de la Plata as well. Heck, even the Scottish attempted to settle a colony in the Darien in present-day Panama. And that's not even including all the buccaneers and slave traders of various nationalities. I'm not interested in wading into the parent discussion, but just wanted to point out that colonialism in Central and South America really was a pan-European phenomenon.

Edit: also worth pointing out that the Spanish monarchs for the period we're talking about were the House of Hapsburg and hence claimed extensive territories in what's now Germany, Austria and Holland, so even many land-locked European regions were involved. There are a surprising number of Iberianized German names in colonial documents from Latin America.

Bizarrely, there was even a minuscule colonial empire ruled by a tiny vassal state of Polish-Lithuanian common wealth for awhile: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duchy_of_Courland_and_Semigall...
Isn't the raw trust preferable to "political theatre" and hypocrisy though?

At least then you know who the bad guy really is.
I'd say that yes. I don't think that the christmas post congestion would affect it if ordered soon.
I see at least two real problems here.

1. A hair dryer is considered a female only item.

2. Hacking something only women use is considered no real engineering.

This is seems to go in the whole "lean in" direction again. Women need to do something "real" (read: male) to be considered real engineers.
PAs have prescribing power
There's a lot of places in the world you could generate electricity in crazy ways. For example, you could spin up a giant gyroscope at one of the poles and generate power from Earth's rotation.

The problem is distribution.
One of those great exception is Erherpad. The open source base helped launch a community then a full rewrite. Hopefully the hackpad fork will now be merged or at least some features will be back ported.
Yes, but all those professions require the oversight of a MD.
A doctor, or group of doctors who deeply care about profits.
I'm not knocking profits. I know it's all about money. It's just when you can't increase competition, you have no control over prices. The amount of time, and political BS, a doctor has to go through just to get through medical school is rediculious. Then there's the residency--that's the apprentiship. When they get out--know wonder they want a lot of money for what they went through.

I don't have a simple answer, but I would like to see more government built medical schools; increasing the supply.

I would further like to see most drugs available over the counter, with the exception of antibiotics, and very strong pain killers.

I would like to see a society, where a patient who is on a long term medication, only has to see a doctor once a year, or if the patient needs a higher dose. (Right now most patients only need to see a doctor once a year, in order to get refills, but very few doctors are willing to authorize a year's worth of refills. They want to bill for those office visits. I understand it in some situations. In other situations, I don't understand dragging in patients, especially those patients with lousy insurance, or no insurance.)

I don't have a simple answer. I'm on medications--I can't just stop. I've felt hostage to the system for too many years.

I am greatful to the Health Care Act though. I know, you guys all hate it. Yes, it has faults, the Insurance/Pharmaceutical companies took advantage of, but let's see what the system looks like when the next Republician president vetoes it?

I'm falling for a bit of forum bikeshedding here of commenting on something very important :) but...it's one thing to say "I imagined it was like this, but it was like that.

I can't remember whether I tried to imagine it or allowed it to be intriguing-but-unknown in my mind.

Obviously lots of latin and asian americans are already accustomed to (their) ethnic cuisines.

So I wanted to emphasize that even the stereotypically "conservative in tastes" white america has embraced ethnic cuisines in the last 20-30 years.
You should put up some tech specs. Positional tolerance, profile tolerance, edge breaks, plate flatness, surface roughness specs (polished and unpolished). It doesn't need to be marketing speak: as you say it's a precise process and I think the average person would be blown away by what's routinely achieved. While people looking for non-decorative items may well really need the information.

P.S. Ideas for future features you may wish to offer:

- Laser etching (different machine, but ties in with the general business idea).

- Bending! Even at a simple level it would let people make accurate cases, brackets and sculptures from the pieces.
More capable than 2.4GHz? It's not so much about reflections, but going through solid objects. I imagined the larger wavelength of 2.4GHz dissipates less when travelling through solid objects, but this is hardly scientific. I also read stuff from internet searches that seemed to confirm this, but I don't remember nor have a link to a scientific explanation.
Actually, the Purple Line isn't WMATA either, for the same reason DC avoids it: too much bureaucracy to get it done. The Purple Line will be administered by the Maryland Transit Administration.

An element that I don't understand about the carbon sequestration push is that water vapor is a more potent greenhouse gas than CO2, yet nobody sees condensation of water vapor out of the atmosphere as a strategy. It has the side benefit of its "waste product" being pure water, which would be a huge benefit for arable regions lacking only water (like East of the Rockies in the USA, Australia, the Middle East / North Africa, etc.)

The only such use I see is small-scale, localized cloud seeding over watersheds.

Someone should track the lifespan of cloud products. It's not long; the median is probably less than five years. Dependence on a cloud product is risky. They can go away so fast.
Average number of Punters on college football teams, by Division
I think the drawback to your argument is that you're not considering all scenarios. One "worst-case" I can think of is that we charge ahead with measures to combat climate change, harming big parts of the economy in the process, and wind up with the famine, drought, and flooding anyway because we didn't charge ahead with the right measures.

It's extremely important to determine whether the global warming is caused by us or not, and whether or not we can alter global warming whether we caused it or not. If it's mostly natural (and we know the earth has gone through much warmer periods long before we showed up) then the measures we need to take involve protecting our coastal cities and our food and energy supplies. If it's mostly caused by us, then we need to stop doing what's causing it, and probably need to protect our coastal cities and food and energy supplies anyway.
