>ANY powers not mentioned explicitly in the Constitution are supposed to be reserved for the people.

Of course, but that only applies if the government is still good.

Should a situation arise where the government decides to become evil, then the government will not give a f*ck about the people's reserved rights.

At that point, it will become hard to fight the government, if the people have no guns and especially hard if the people no standing well-regulated militia groups of men to enforce and defend the reserved rights of the people.

This is why the founding fathers want to guarantee the peoples the right to the standing of well-regulated militias groups. Because if the peoples does not have well-regulated militia groups to defend them, then the government can just decide to become corrupt, and there will be nothing that the people can do. By then, it'll be too late to start recruiting, training, and buying guns and ammo.

However, if the people have well-regulated militia groups standing by, then the government will have to fight a bloody war against the people's well-regulated militia groups first before the government can become a full fledged dictatorship.

I see. I'm not sure if all of these things are fundamental to TCP itself, but instead are economic and regulatory results. Something to think about. It's not my area so I don't have specific cites, but data centers are effectively meshes. I know there has been work on different ways to transit data within them other than stock TCP/IP. Network coding, for instance, is a pretty cool way to splat data among a whole bunch of interconnected people and UDP to all your peers is a good medium to do it over. There's also work on multipath TCP (MCTCP, others) to help utilize other idle links.

I'd check the literature on that, typically under the data center track at networking conferences.

Searched YYZ-SFO on Dec 22. Google Flights gave me US$206, Tripdelta gave me US$248 with SMF (Sacramento) as the destination, with approximately the same airtime. Tripdelta doesn't even show the $206 flight as an option.

Better off using Google Flights with multiple destinations. Put a little bit of effort into finding which origin/destination airports are viable for you, and search directly for it on another OTA.
> just take Greyhound to LAX

Would be surprised if it gives you the same price, usually direct flights are more expensive.
The idea is that you can also just add up the digits of a number to 'cast out nines' (during this calculation you can also ignore any pair of digits that adds up to 9).

By the way, you can combine this with 'casting out tens', then you'll know if your result is accurate mod 90 (which is even less likely than it being accurate mod 10 or mod 9, if you've made a mistake).

I'm not making this up as I go along. Almost four years ago I wrote (http://hintjens.com/blog:18) "The Economics of Evil" explaining why bad actors (I used "bad guy" in that post) were necessary (so "good" overall).

Nothing radical here. Predators are bad for individual prey animals yet essential for the health of the prey species.

I'm curious what you are trying to argue here because while this is interesting stuff, it seems quite random.
Beautiful use of data. Very well done.
Tripdelta can't do anything ITA Matrix can't as well -- you just have to know what you're doing with Matrix (input alternate airports via the suggestions, or use advanced routing codes). But Matrix will give you far more flexibility and better results.

No one one wants to specifically categorize certain problems as being endemic to one racial group because it sounds racist.

But I feel like that would make tackling the problem a lot easier, therefore benefiting that group.

But a the OP pointed-out, if a site using LE is compromised then the attacker has basically an infinite duration of valid certs, because they are automatically renewed.

There is no manual challenge to receive a new cert. So essentially the validity period of an LE cert means nothing.

Well, historically, when Microsoft was still in competition-mode, Internet Explorer was kicking Netscape's ass with the later versions.

With the first few versions they were playing catch-up, but if I recall correctly, IE 4 and IE 5 actually had more features and better standards compliance than the current Netscape versions, as did IE 6 at its launch.

"IE hell" started once Microsoft won the race.
I've worked in automated option market making in the past; if I were on a jury hearing this case, there's no way I would convict these guys of spoofing. They are taking advantage of a feature built in to the market for purposes similar to this: hiding your intentions. The only people who could realistically be damaged by this are professionals, retail customers will either benefit from the tiny bit of extra liquidity added by the 1 or won't be adversely affected by the hidden AON orders on the other side. The algo traders who complained to the SEC should be embarrassed at doing so; they should have been burned on a couple of trades, figured out what they were doing wrong and fixed their code to compensate. Blindly stepping up your quote or order for size on a 1 lot in order to capture rebate is just foolish and anyone who can make money off you for doing so should be entitled to it.

Edit: this is an attempt to paraphrase the article's reasoning for moving from stereotypes to their researcher as a subject.

Because people will shut down interesting research which doesn't conform to the stated position of the social justice movement. This happens even if the research is high-quality and relatively unbiased. The research on stereotyping is a good example because the research doesn't attempt to cast stereotypes in a bad light, therefore it must be bad research.

I think the local government should allow us to reclaim lost shore line or even build out more. It's one thing to slowly lose shore from the rising sea but to also lose the land itself is twice as bad. Usually storm surges pound the shore and large sections of a cliffside collapse but not necessarily right at the shore.

Something similar to my situation was a segment on the local news where people on Manhattan island were interviewed about the rising sea level. I guess some parts of Manhattan near sea level are going to have a park build to act as a storm surge buffer. http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/new-york-superstorm-climate-cha...

It really seems like you should either have to file and publish in a reasonable timeframe or just not be granted a patent at all. Otherwise, you could "classify" your patents until someone else is on the verge of re-inventing it, then declassify it and have your cake and eat it too.

How I protect my privacy without realizing it
1) According to whom? I've heard people say that but I know no basis for it.

According to your ancestors, who were unwilling to signed the Constitution into law because it only contained power for the government.

If you read up on the history of the founding of the United States of American, you will find that your ancestors demanded a second portion be added to the Constitution, a portion with powers distributed and reserved for the people, a portion called the Bill of Rights, which consists of 10 Amendments. Your ancestors demanded that if this portion, which distributed half the power to the people was not added, they would not sign the Constitution into law.

So that was why this portion was added back then, because the people demanded it, and they were unwilling to recognize the legitimacy of the Constitution and of the government until it was added.
Developers of large JavaScript codebases have come to realize that class-based OO is exactly what they need. Prototype OO sounds interesting in theory, but in practice it tends to not be what's needed. Projects that use it end up trying to poorly imitate class OO. This wouldn't necessarily be a problem, except it isn't done consistently. There are multiple approaches, some of them which don't mesh well with others. Class-based OO, on the other hand, tends to be much more consistent and well-defined. This consistency improves developer productivity, it keeps the code cleaner, and it allows for greater code reuse between projects. Prototype OO hasn't proven itself in practice, while class OO has again and again.
