Skipping bail when the Supreme Court rules against you is not "playing by the rules" by any definition.
From the article:
"Somewhere along the way an account with a large and conservative following retweeted it, an action that flooded my notifications page"

The point being that even if you are trying to use twitter as a social network to connect with friends and only have 300 followers (or 10000) it only takes one account with a vocal following to take your innocent tweet (that they could of found through twitter search) and put a negative spin on it through a retweet. Which then unleashes the masses on you.
Anything with XML in it would do that to you...
For some frequently asked questions, from Assange's side of things, as it seems as if a few people here haven't heard about Assange before on Hacker News, take a look at the FAQ section halfway down this page (you can skip the top bit if you are somewhat familiar)

https://justice4assange.com/

It's also worth a look at some of the arguments here: https://justice4assange.com/extraditing-assange.html

(edits: made the above clearer that the FAQs were from Assange's side)
And what does this information tell anyone? Not liking her in any way, but that information is not adding anything to this.

She was there as Head of State, starting an important experiment funded by the state and lending importance to this scientific endeavor in this way. Or at least hoping to garner some positiv press for herself, that she is in dire need of.

But being Head of a (by the way just so called) christian party does not tell anything in a very secularized country like German.
People also report ~2x differences in tumor death rates due to weird stuff like cage row though: "a strong correlation between cage row and RE (reticulo-endothelial tumor) death rates, which varied from 17% (bottom row) to 32% (top row) (table 2)."

Doesn't look like they controlled for that in the current paper. Who knows? In the extended figures they report a huge variation in median lifespan between different labs (like 33%, corresponding to what would be differences of 25-30 years for humans). It could have something to do with closeness to the door, air circulation, etc that people aren't thinking about.

Maybe rodents gain some health benefit from being nearer the ground. Less stress when they look out the window?
I've implemented bogosort, though only for illustration purposes (honestly...). Drawing a graph comparing running times of two or three algorithms as the size of the input increases is quite instructive, especially once you see that bogosort goes off the scale (whatever linear scale you use) pretty quickly.

To be pedantic (and why not), I don't think that the procedures described in the paper strictly qualify as algorithms because there's no guarantee of termination. That's part of the fun, of course.
Nice. Would it be possible to randomize the columns and rows, that way you can increase the difficulty.
That's how the criminal justice system works. How would you prefer it were done? He was tried in absentia, and only arrested in convicted?
Why? It's an analogy, the relevant parts match; There's no rule that says discrimination has to reach a certain level before it should be resisted . Stop derailing my point with irrelevancies.

"A lot of civil rights activist" - which ones and why? Maybe their reasoning is sensitive to their particular interest.

I understand what 'often' means, I don't agree with it as a generality. Even 'People perceive relative changes as terrible' isn't always true.

Why do you think your ten minutes of Googling makes you better placed to judge what constitutes a crime than the UK Supreme Court?
I don't know if I agree with your parent that rent should generally cover mortgage payments, but it should at least cover mortgage interest and other expenses, plus a rate of return on top of that. You need to take into account the opportunity cost of ownership. In addition to the interest, insurance, maintenance expenses, and risk, there is an opportunity cost to the money tied up in home equity. In a functioning market, if two people start with the same amount of capital, one decides to purchase a home and the other decides to rent a comparable home and invest the difference in assets of comparable risk, they will expect to come out the same. There is a small net payment from the renter to the owner, but that is because the owner is being compensated for having their capital tied up in the home. (Or looked at another way, the renter is paying for the benefit of not having to have their own capital tied up in the home.)

It doesn't appear that way in practice, because in practice 1) the home owner generally started with more money, which is how they bought a home in the first place, and 2) ownership forces people to save money. A renter with the same income could save a comparable amount of money to an owner, but on average they don't because there isn't a mortgage payment forcing them to do so. So on average home owners tend to be wealthier than renters. But there's nothing special about ownership vs rent (besides forced savings) that causes that to be so.

Rent is not a wealth transfer from poor to rich; it is payment for a service.

Now, if house prices are depressed, like with any asset, it is possible that ownership will temporarily be a good deal. (And vice-versa.) In a situation where the market has taken a plunge, one might be able to buy in at a level where they could be cashflow positive from rent, even including un-rented periods, to an extent that over-compensates for the funds they have tied up in the house. However, in that situation, people will rationally buy investment properties, increasing demand, and returning prices to a more rational level. (Likewise if houses are overpriced, eventually people will stop buying them because they don't expect any return on the investment, which will cause prices to drop.)

I was thinking that while this will never work for people, at least Americans (just watch a group of us on a bus or plane) that this could work for same-day delivery for Amazon and others and it would only have to be a fraction of the size tube.

You'd still need a last-mile delivery but you could do warehouse to warehouse transfers in an hour instead of days.

> A French wheeled TGV could have done that 35 years ago. A Japanese wheeled Shinkansen could have done that even before. A Japanese or Chinese maglev version of the last 1-2 decades could easily beat that.

On very few select tracks – the Shinkansen could drive 500 km/h, but is still limited to 320 because of a lack of suitable high-speed tracks. Same goes for the TGV, and the Germans don't even bother with trains faster than 250 km/h.

Speaking of which, Germany sold their maglev technology to Japan and China in the first place because there was nowhere to put it at all. With Germany's winding railroad network it's impossible to reach speeds high enough to justify maglev.

400 km/h sustained, over tracks longer than 400km, would already be a massive improvement over the status quo.

Assuming, of course, the Hyperloop will be able to build a sufficient rail/tube network.
I love the concept and the goal, but the irony was too much. Right in the introduction, where it is talking about how speed (as an example of program quality) impacts usability, the little calculator widgets don't work for me (iPad mini, 1st gen, with up-to-date iOS, stock Safari). Maybe it is my hardware or my OS, or my browser, but I'm just a dumb user, so I don't know or care. But maybe they just tried to be too fancy and shot themselves in the foot. Or maybe I should just follow their advice and download Chrome. Yeah, I'm sure the answer is to add another browser to my device and let Alphabet spy on me too (bad enough Apple does it, why give them an advantage).

Or maybe "stop breaking the Internet" is just the new "get off my lawn."

As I answered elsewhere in this thread, I did not say a word about design. I was talking about programming solely.

Design is not only a complex problem, it is an unsolved problem. Is there any passable design out there? I have not seen it yet. It is either disgusting, incomprehensibly disgusting, or, in the best case, barely tolerable. And the same thing is going on in any kind of an industrial design, it is not limited to web.

As for the type class hierarchy, yes, I did not notice this bit, thanks. I'll take a closer look now.
I'm not sure Assange's own site is the best source for unbiased facts on the case. Here's the other side:

You mean Google? I see a tonne of deceptive advertising propagated by Google's ad network.
One would expect that £12.6m would be spent for similar fugitives who are evading arrest for alleged sexual offences against women. Right?

Oh, - it's because he is "high-profile" that makes him special. So it's not about the alleged crime at all? It's due to wikileaks after all!

There is something illogical here, I think.
FWIW, "impression" means "request". Who knows what the user saw.

Google AdSense is pay-per-click (or some algorithm, based on clicks against and the subject matter's value). In the context of adware rubbish, we are probably talking about AdSense. So no, Google doesn't pay per impression.

DoubleClick (part of Google for some time) may still offer an impression-based product. My experience of them a few years ago was that they'd negotiate on anything if you have enough traffic to make it worth their time.
I find that patronizing: "Tell them what they can improve".

They might not need improvement at all, you just got an impression of what you think their flaws are, where you might be in the wrong.

I see what you are trying to do, but you should seriously re-phrase those emails in a different way.
It would certainly piss me off to receive such a rejection email.
How to Recover from Your Parse Addiction
You don't have to be forced physically for it to count as rape/sexual assault as far as I am aware. Not objecting is the same as saying no effectively. You need active positive consent to be safe. If I'm wrong please correct me but from what I've read this seems to be the way it works.
I think the key issue is that the Swedish prosecutor (until recently) made no effort to question him in the embassy.

Given how badly the US wants Assange, and how we know they treat people like him, it is completely understandable that he wouldn't want to leave the embassy. Therefore it is hard to understand why the Swedish prosecutor was content to sit on her backside when it's in everyone's (not least the alleged victims) interest to move the case forward.
The name came out the the desire to unite catholic and protestant groups after WWII in a centre party. They've been open to non-christians since inception, and they decided to keep the "Christian" in the name to emphasize their concern over the Christian image of man, from which they derive their view that human dignity is worthy of protection as it is given by God.

They do seem conservative by comparison to their main opponent party, the SPD, which has Marxist roots, but compared to say US politics, they would be considered moderates. In that sense, it's disingenuous to take them out of the German political spectrum (which is much more moderate than the US), and judge them by name alone.

Yes, because he has evaded it.

Because NFL have been allowed to set up artificial caps on the number of franchises that can exist, owners have repeatedly used the threat of relocation to extort municipalities into paying for stadiums.

Why would "we" want Assange to go free? He's wanted for questioning on allegations of sexual assault.
Here is the actual complaint, translated from swedish to english:

Sexual Assault

They were sitting in bed talking and he took off her clothes. They had sex again and she realised that he had only put the condom over the tip of his penis, but she let it pass.

They went to sleep and she awoke with the sensation of him entering her. She immediately asked 'Are you wearing anything?' and he replied 'You'.

She told him 'You better not have HIV' and he replied 'Of course not'. She felt it was too late, he was already in her so she let him continue, she was too tired to tell him once more, she had been nagging him about using a condom all night.

She never had unprotected sex before. He said he wanted to come inside her, he did not say when he would but he did. A lot leaked out of her afterwards.

She told him 'What if I get pregnant?'. He answered that Sweden is a good place to have kids. She jokingly told him that if she became pregnant he would have to pay her student loans.

On the train to Enköping he had told her that he had slept in Anna Ardins bed after a party. She asked if he had sex with Anna but he said Anna liked girls, that she was a lesbian.

Now she knows that he did the same thing with Anna. She asked him about how many he has had sex with, he responded that he didn't keep count. He said that he had HIV tested himself 3 months earlier and that he had sex with a woman after that and that she was tested and not positive.

She said sarcastic things to him in a joking tone, she believes that she was trying to de-dramatize what had happened, he in turn did not seem to care. When he was told the size of her student loans he said that if he was to pay her loans then she would have to give birth to a baby.

They joked that the child would be named Afghanistan. He also said that he ought to keep abortion-pills with him that would in reality be sugar-pills.

His phone rang and he had a meeting with Aftonbladet (swedish newspaper) on tuesday at 12. She explained that he would not make it to that meeting, so he pushed his whole schedule ahead by one hour.

After that he rode a bicycle with her on the back down to the train station. She paid his ticket to Stockholm. Before they separated he told her to keep her phone on. She asked if he was going to call and he said he would.

She took the bike home, showered and changed sheets. Since she didn't make it in time for work she called in sick and stayed home. She wanted to clean up and wash everything. There was semen on the sheets and she thought it was disgusting. She also went by the drugstore and bought 'dagenefterpiller' (abortion pills).

After she had discussed with her friends she realized that she had been the victim of a crime. She went to Danderyd hospital and from there to Södersjukhuset (another hospital). There she was examined and also tested using a so called 'rape-kit'.

I didn't say it wasn't high quality, just that it's not necessarily innovative or new.
You forgot to mention the rape stuff.
He isn't high profile because of his alleged crime though.

The amount of money they spend guarding the embassy is ridicules. A similar spending would have been accepted if it was just some random guy. The British public should furious about wasting £12.6 million trying to catch a guy that many not be guilty, or may only be guilty of something that's only rape in the Swedish sense.

Don't get me wrong, if guilty then I don't care who he is. In that case he should be punished. It's just that I don't think Sweden should be allowed to hand him over to the US afterwards.

Still the amount of money wasted trying to catch him should say something about why the UK police wants him. You simply don't spend that kind of money trying to catch a person, just so you can question him.
Steven King has said something that I've come to support, that note/list-keeping is a great way to let bad ideas survive. He claims that a really good idea will survive in your head on its own, and a bad idea will die. And that by writing down every idea, you are polluting your landscape of possibilities by immortalizing ideas that are better left forgotten.
I like how they devoted a whole paragraph to that point, although it's probably the most important one in the whole article.

It is slightly depressing, but on some level it makes sense to increase quantity when quality is going down. There are just too many me-too startups and a lot of time, money and effort is wasted around startups that revolve around marketing and advertising. Probably on fintech too. Playing the number games around those can certainly work.

A local start-up incubator is just about finished constructing a second building with a lot of facilities and laboritories for bio-tech start-ups. I feel that is an interesting approach and could be interesting for YCR also.
I agree. Of course using terrorism as the reason so censor search results is easier to swallow for the average person. I mean who wouldn't agree with that right. If you disagree you must be a terrorist.

But that is how they get people to accept it. Then google or whoever will slightly twist the results in such a way that will benefit either themselves or someone else.

If you agree with that then you should have no problem with someone searching for adoption agencies and being directed to abortion clinics. Not to mention being given news articles that support either opinion. This would work the other way also.

I don't know. It sounds evil to me.
Being religious or part of a party with religious affiliation is entirely different in pretty much anywhere in Europe than it is in the US. Non-secular views on any major subject are effectively unheard of here; there's nothing conflicting about being religious and secular here.

Yes, I did in fact read the article.

But if you're trying to use Twitter as a social network to connect with friends, you don't have 10,000 followers. The author is clearly a public figure: she's a comic and writer, not someone just networking with friends.

If she didn't have thousands of followers, the likelihood of the conservative finding her tweet would have been exponentially lower.
Basically, as parent said, they're concerned that doing something oddball with the land will actually decrease its value or at least have some unknown effect on its value that they have no experience to evaluate.

Add to that, post-2008, most banks/credit unions are just going to err on the side of just not making the loan rather than making one which has some unquantifiable risk associated with it.

That said, it's all a bit arbitrary. I live in a relatively normal house on some very nice property but the house has enough quirks (it's very old) that I fully expect that whoever buys it some day will just build a new house.
It's a big company, I can imagine the browser guys wanting this but the ad guys saying they "can't" do this and there being a mini-war.
