Why put "breach" in double-quotes? That's a very serious privacy concern if voters did not want this information to be public.

I opt out every time (at US airports). The only time I've ever seen anyone else opt-out was after leaving a tech conference.

I ended up chatting with the guy afterwards and he reported that I was also the only random person he'd ever seen waiting in the opt-out line. He was wearing a deliciously nerdy "Affordable Cleric Act" T-shirt.
While it's poor form to have a leaky database, this information is largely public and dirt cheap. You can buy a whole state's worth of data for a couple hundred bucks or a few cents a name. That includes whether or not you're registered to vote in any specific primary.

Doesn't look like who you voted for is disclosed -- I'm not sure that this data even exists. I suspect in most states, you go in to vote, your name is crossed off a list, you're assigned a hash, and that hash votes, and there's no database of "John Smith voted for Jane Doe."
And yet you have people like me, who work for "the man" (in my case as customer relations), whose job is to ensure the public is well served and gets exactly what they need from the agency. Granted, I work for local government and not federal, but the concept is the same. I go out of my way to make sure the person whose needs I'm serving are met, with a smile and courteousness that I'm not forced to offer. Of course, I could just "play the role" and be a cold, bureaucratic robot, but I prefer to give what I'd like to get. When I go to the Department of Driver Services, I want the clerk to be polite and helpful, therefore in my job I do the same.

Besides, how do you know the TSA agent being spit on isn't trying to work their way up the chain so they can be a better manager and fix the way things work on the ground floor? Someone like coldpie could be ironically dragging down the spirit of the one person on his side.

The world isn't black and white, nor is it two-dimensional. Every single government employee is not a mindless drone, implicit in the shenanigans of their superiors.
The people who get the extra powers, of course; it makes them appear important, and ensures that they keep a steady, large paycheck.

It's basically the Prisoner's Dilemma; they can screw us over for more money, and that aligns with their goals, so they do. The real problem is that, due to the way we vote, we're pretty much only letting people into office if they take the asshole choice in the first place.

One question I have, that can be hard to ask without sounding insensitive, is if all suicide attempts are equal in their intent. Overdosing allows for far more options to be saved than a shotgun does; could the choice of one over the other be due to a subconscious or conscious desire to not actually die?

Doesn't DieBold determine who voted for whom? /s
Every agency I've worked at didn't have one overarching solution for hosting client sites. Some clients already had a relationship with a hosting company and didn't want to change it. Other clients had a huge legacy codebase that they didn't want to pay to have replaced and we didn't want to pay to migrate and host it. With every client, there was some weird new situation that we had to navigate.

So rather than finding one solution, you might think about putting your client's sites into different buckets. Some sites might be a small one-off that you're starting from scratch, and those might fall into the shared hosting bucket. Some might be bigger or use a different stack than your typical site and those could fall into the VPS bucket. The remainder might fall into that unknown/unknowable zone, so it'd be good to plan out a way of managing third-party or client-hosted sites.

I think it's a rare thing for an agency to start off a new client relationship with an entirely blank slate, it'd serve you well to be flexible.

How do you know this is true? Dietary counselling is recommended as part of the treatment of newly-diagnosed T2DM, per UpToDate[1], a reference for this kind of thing.

I'm not sure what you mean here. What are the guidelines and how are they deleterious?

1. http://www.uptodate.com/contents/nutritional-considerations-...
At least in the US, unless the nutritionist is a doctor, they can't legally diagnose or prescribe medicines or treatments. That also don't usually have binding orders for blood tests either, to find nutritional deficiencies.

And there's always a 'reduce alcohol' message. Even if things like distilled alcohol have no negative and a slightly positive effect on someone with diabetes. But alcohol is "sinful" and those teetotalers will shame it whenever they can.

If you're going to ask a whiteboard question, solve it yourself (on paper, without references). If you can't solve it in a few minutes, it's probably not a good question. I do this with every whiteboard question I ask.

I ask these types of questions not because I really care if an interviewee can reverse a linked list or whatever, but to gauge their familiarity with the language. If their resume claims several large projects, and they claim to work with a language every day, but they struggle with the basic syntax, something is off. And that happens all the time.

> I would add that I'm not exactly a Christian, although I find a lot of inspiration in the gospel and the writings of Christian thinkers -- so one doesn't have to go "all the way" and believe in life after death and miracles and stuff -- it's often enough to focus on forgiveness and compassion, and that there's something bigger and more important than you and your tiny problems.

The Gospel of Thomas is a good example of this genre. The Zen-to-Magic ratio is much higher than in most Christian texts. Though, fwiw, mainstream Christians consider it heretic for some reason.

One of the reasons this is bunk is that east Asian cultures have had higher prevalences of suicide well before WWII.

Do you believe that being paid removes all culpability for your actions? Suppose I found someone to pay me to break the windows in your house[1] every day. Would you treat me with kindness and thank me for my service, while writing a letter to my benefactor asking him politely to stop paying me to break your windows?

What if you got karma for good replies to your comments?
Suppose that, instead of counting just the upvotes and the downvotes of your own comment, the karma system counted the up/downvotes on your comment plus every comment it is a parent of.

Inputting Unicode in X Windows is easy. Just type:

setxkbmap -option compose:ralt

Now, right Alt (AltGr) is your compose key.

Then, for example:

à is Compose + ` + a
ö is Compose + " + o
ß is Compose + s + s
ç is Compose + , + c
€ is Compose + = + e

In Emacs, the easiest way to input Unicode directly is to set read-quoted-char-radix to 16 in your .emacs. Then use C-q (typically bound to quoted-insert) to input a glyph directly via hex code point.

∀ is C-q + 2200
λ is C-q + 3bb
∃ is C-q + 2203
若 is C-q + 82e5
世 is C-q + 4e16

An easier way is to dial up a character map program like gucharmap and copy and paste.

I agree with all the examples mentioned in this article, but I think the beginning of 2014 was the year public opinion started to change. Nadella came out of the gate strong in early 2014.

They don't, the agent at the desk is just making sure that the name on the ticket matches the name on the ID you provide. There's been countless articles about how insecure this is. You buy a ticket under a false name and print out a second one that has your real name on it. The airline's no-fly list checks the fake name on the real ticket you bought but the TSA agent checks the real name on the fake ticket matches the ID that's handed to him.
I can't imagine why one would prefer to be physically touched by a stranger than be scanned by a no-contact device. It's almost certain that people who like to be touched by random people are in the minority. The "cancer risks" are laughable pseudoscience.

Very generally, think pascalish golang. Eschews heavy abstraction, lower keyword count, green threads built in, modules instead of packages, no implicit type casts, copious compile errors. It did not have garbage collection, but I'm sure M2R10 will offer something in that area.

Topspeed made an awesome compiler and libraries for M2 back in the DOS days. The package came with a cute traffic simulator demo showing off the multitasking capabilities of M2. Logitech (yes, the mouse and keyboard guys) was another vendor back in the day, along with Stonybrook (sweet optimizations) and XDS, a Russian company which I believe wrote some M2 code for the Russian space program.
> The voter registries are public in nearly all states.

The article specifically mentions this:

> While the majority of states make their voter registration lists available as a matter of public record and do not restrict use, some states restrict use. For example, South Dakota requires the requestor of voter registration data to sign a statement …. In California, information on voter registration cards is considered confidential, and subject to many restrictions to access and use …. And in Hawaii, voter registration information may only be used for elections and by the government.

It is implied that the victims include voters from these three states (and explicitly stated that they include voters from California), so it is a genuine data breach in that sense.

> As far as I can tell, the only "breach" here is revealing what candidates or parties voters chose.

Also, as other commenters have mentioned, the list of fields at http://www.databreaches.net/wp-content/uploads/DataFields.jp... does include your party (which I think is information as public as the voting record anyway), but does not seem to include your specific vote.

A Bachelor's degree doesn't really do that much for you these days. It's become like a high school diploma was 30 years ago (which almost no one paid for). I keep trying to advocate that people not go so far in debt for a college degree. For med school or law school (although I would argue that this is not a great investment with the current glut of law school grads) it makes sense to go into debt of that size. But I don't think you can or should justify student loans of over $10k for undergrad. Maybe you could stretch that to $20k, but I wouldn't (and didn't). If you can't afford a college don't go there.

I left college with ~$3k in student loan debt. I went to a liberal arts college that costs ~$60k a year with room and board. My family definitely could not have afforded to send me there, but I got a lot of scholarships and financial aid. I ended up with a job that had nothing to do with my education there. I value the experience I had there, but it was not worth $60k a year by any means.

There is a lot of benefit to college education, but not everyone needs to go to their dream school. Not everyone drives their dream car or lives in their dream home.

Baroque to Classical was not a rebellion, it was an embellishment and a refinement.

The art establishment's writing of art history as a series of rebellions is an ahistorical invention, designed to make the works of Rothko and Pollock seem the necessary end result in a progression of rebellions.

In reality, the majority of the new art movements came, to quote Jesus, "Not abolish the Law or the Prophets; but to fulfill them."

The art critic Fred Ross gave a great speech on this, in 2006, to the Oil Painters of America guild. You can listen to it here:
