If you end up in court you've done something very wrong.

Or they've done something very wrong. You can usually seek judicial review of government decisions for such reasons as bias ("they have a policy of giving tickets to black people!"), procedural fairness ("I turned up for my appeal but they refused to let me speak!"), or abuse of discretion ("when I turned up for my appeal, they listened to me, then flipped a coin and said that heads meant that I lost!").

With all the activity with C++ development it'll hardly ever stabilise. Ever since C++11 it keeps changing at a frightening pace.

And you don't really need Emacs for Lisp, there are multiple other options (but yes, I'm using Emacs for C++ too).

Btw., quite a nice cheat sheet. What did you use to make it?

>In particular we avoid "academic" features of the language like functors[2] and first class modules, because they obscure the flow of the code and are a headache for ordinary programmers to understand.

If you're hiring OCaml programmers who can't understand (or learn to understand) functors, you're probably doing something wrong. Even using the stdlib Hashtbl requires an understanding of functors.
Well, I guess that long before truly automatic cars come to life, we will have cars that you can set to a certain speed and it will just continue driving forward(much like Tesla's Autopilot, but working on any road anywhere). You might ask "well, why don't we make the autopilot follow the speed limits then?". Mostly because in some countries it's not easy to tell when a speed limit ends and in my experience GPS maps are not always 100% accurate. Basically in most of EU the speed limit begins with a sign and ends at a nearest intersection, without any visible sign indicating so. So the car would need to recognize what is an intersection and what isn't - which is difficult even for human drivers, sometimes you have a paved road going off the main road to someone's house, but it's not an intersection so it doesn't cancel the speed limit. Again, it could be solved by having very very detailed maps, but then it doesn't help with roadworks which set up temporary speed limits.

Anyway, my point is that until we have truly, 100% automatic vehicles which take all liability for their actions, vehicles in semi-automatic modes will continue getting speeding and parking tickets.

Bronze making will come soon?

However, I don't think he'll find copper and tin ores in the same place, and trading stuff kinda ruins the entire premise of the project. So he'll have to get right to steelmaking, skipping bronze.

First, he'll have to obtain iron ore (since he's in Australia, it will be easy enough). Then, he needs coke — he can make it from charcoal by using beehive oven: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beehive_oven

Then, he can build bloomery (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloomery) to produce sponge iron, and then wrought iron.

Then, cementation furnace (much harder to build) to make steel.
Here you go, using the same word that got "the author" in her situation. 'Deserve'. I don't know whether she - or anyone else 'deserves' to live in SF. But I know that she was not able to - or, at least she was not able to find the standards of living she wanted.

Being able to is a math question. Take your salary A after taxes, subtract B = rent, subtract C = payments on the loan you are planning to take to cover the move, subtract D = other monthly costs of living, subtract E = food costs.
A-B-C-D-E = X . If X is less than acceptable (or even less than zero) don't move.

'Deserve', the word you (and "the author", although she does not spell it directly) use, is a proxy for 'wanna wanna wanna'. Guess what, even if you 'wanna wanna wanna' ('deserve', 'have a dream to') to live in SF, that won't help you a bit. An adult is supposed to be able to understand this. That's why there some of us don't have much compassion for the author.

P.S.
'Deserve' is also a political tool, most often used lately to justify wealth redistribution. That's why user MCRed immediately connects the author to the Berniebros. I do too.

Copenhagen is right now moving to a fully digital model: you enter your license plate in the machine or some online app. The people checking the parking have presumably some kind of license plate scanner.

The online app component seems to have been outsourced and thus has slightly different price structure; it also allows you to extend parking remotely.
Hi, noticed your comment and just wanted to let you know that, during the alpha testing phase, I actually made this. It's somewhat rough and unreleased now, but I am wondering what you would expect from such a plugin. Could you answer some of these questions?

- Would you primarily use the plugin to auto-tag uploads in the admin area?
- Would you have problems with getting your own Google API key (and thus billing via Google), or would you expect the plugin to take care of this as well?
- Any other expectations?

As said, what I have now is not really release-worthy, but I can get it to that point in a matter of days.

Thanks.

I'm being slightly facetious.

As a generalisation though, many (or most) doctors:

- Have lousy work hours.

- Have a lot of work-related stress and are therefore often quite moody and irritable.

- Often have poor social skills, and can be particularly bad at resolving conflicts.

- Have a tendency towards narcissism and can therefore be quite high maintenance.

- Don't have an off-switch when it comes to work, so may bore you to death with work-related stories and complaints.
In that case, fair enough. I'd love nothing more than to be wrong about this :)

I suppose what bothers me most particularly is the appeal to legal expertise in the analysis. I think this is missing the point completely, and I fail to see how that can be a criticism of anything but the author. We learn that Lee isn't a legal expert, but this isn't a book about law per se. Rather, it's a book about society, so the moral and ethical contradictions in Finch's character constitute a feature, not a bug, and the legal narrative drives the story -- nothing more.

Lets get the mythical horse animals straight first. A mythical horse animal that can fly is called a Pegasi. A unicorn another mythical horse animal doesn't have wings. In startup terms there often mentions of runway and burn rate. Now the magical horses is running down the runway without wings.

Tom Petty - Learnig to fly lyrics
"Well I started out down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down as I crossed the hill
And the town lit up, the world got still

I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing

Well, the good ol' days may not return
And the rocks might melt and the sea may burn"
Probably not the kind of customization most people are looking for, but you can do all that with urxvt extensions: http://jbl.web.cern.ch/jbl/doc/urxvt/

It's a little more complicated in the UK.

Street parking is managed by councils. There are legal requirements for signage and for waiting times before you get a ticket, and you can appeal on either basis.

Off-street parking is often managed by third party businesses, which are various kinds of shady. In some situations there's no legal obligation to pay a fine to the third party. They rely on drivers not knowing this.

There's a separate criminal track where you commit a parking offence, such as obstruction. You can make an informal appeal, but if you want to challenge this seriously you need a very good reason, a good idea of the law, and you may need to attend a hearing.

A bot is ideal for dealing with shady businesses and may make some headway with the council. I can't see it being much use for criminal track appeals.

But there is a big difference between using a language that requires you to be explicit about doing unsafe stuff (here be dragons kind of thing) and one that every single code line is a possible exploit, relying on programmer's skill to make it perfect.
Doing 'something' about it is doing 'something' about the choices you disagree with (= limiting people's ability to make those choices). Until you understand this all you proposing is to shield people even more from the consequences of their bad choices. This does not help.

The only way I can imagine getting a corpus larger than my own transactions is to have some communal data dump.

This does appear to undermine Apple's argument that the Order could have wider security implications. As such Apple is allowed to do what is necessary to retrieve the passcode in-house, and destroy all software/hardware related to the process thereafter. It of course sets a unwelcome precedent, but that appears to be it.
This is of course a difficult procedure to apply post-mortem.

This is just one of many possible quotes giving a measure of how overrated Eco was and will be for the decades to come. An intellectual focusing mostly on showing himself as much more intelligent than others, either by literary exhibitionism, nonsense metaphors on subjects he barely understood and ultimately a love for manipulation of language.

That said, his ability to do all those things with perfect execution and a not-too-well-simulated, ironic distance, makes him a top artist by any standard.
But this sort of "stability" without massively greater levels of repression† is only metastable, it sets the rulers up for things like preference cascades, such as the one that sparked the "Arab Spring". The PRC's nomenklatura ought to be worried about this recent example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceau%C8%99escu%27s_final_speec... 4 days later he and his wife were summarily executed (and large numbers of public/publicized executions remain a tool of control for the PRC's nomenklatura).

†In the context of the PRC, say a return to ration coupons being required to buy food, this allowed your local block or village committee to trivially starve you to death if you get on their wrong side. My 1988 roommates, straight from the PRC to the US for grad school, told me the development of an open market for food was the single greatest change on the ground, getting on the committee's wrong side "only" increased your cost of food.

The other issue with lenses implants is that it's hard to give them adaptive focus; you both need a nice flexible material and attachment points for eye muscles. It's doable, just currently quite expensive and not quite at the performance levels of the original product.
Hmm, I found functors a bit confusing on my first encounter with the language, but I wouldn't call them 'academic'. If you've ever used Haskell typeclasses, they serve almost the same purpose.

In OO land, they're just a way to ensure that an argument satisfies an interface, exposing certain public functions and properties — just like an object in Java has to implement the Comparable interface in order to be sorted in a collection.

You go to prison. For anyone familiar with what happened in Russia during the Stalinist era the US's current trajectory is clear. It doesn't matter that what the state is telling you to do is impossible - the only relevant fact is that you're not complying, and are therefore an enemy of the people (the state).

Anyway. That's one potential future, an actual past, and while the apparatus is more subtle this time, it's the same old forces doing the same old things.

I'm concerned about privacy implications. Let's say that I'm a dissident somewhere. I'm using VPN services, JonDonym, Tor, etc to help obscure my identity. But then maybe WebRTC or whatever reveals the device IPv6.

I've written up a summary of the current situation for InfoQ here:

http://www.infoq.com/news/2016/02/fbios-update

Basically, the FBI shot themselves in the foot by changing the password for the iCloud account within a day or two of the incident, instead of consulting with Apple. This meant the phone couldn't auto backup data which is why the snapshot of the data is not necessarily the most recent. Had they not done this they would have been able to connect the phone to a power outlet and a wifi connection, and it would have uploaded the data to Apple's servers from which they could have asked Apple to acquire the data.

Both Apple and the FBI have been requested to appear before a bipartisan committee to answer specific questions about the case.
Hardly. IPv6 is straight forward for any network engineer with experience with existing networks. It's IPv4 but you get to design address space to logically suit your infrastructure and needs.

That's a hair's breadth away from the lunatic fringe. It's a simple logical leap to the conspiracy theory that the shootings are false-flag operations put in place by the powers that be to initiate legislation on encryption.

That's probably why you are being downvoted.
We have no data that muscles cannot hold a specific tension for a long time or that frequent monotonous strains can lead to malformation of the muscle? Sure, lack of blue light might also contribute, but the overall amount of blue in any artificial commodity lighting doesn't rival the sunlight.

Actually the IPv6 address allows you to put a lot of useful detail into your address scheme. If this is supposed to be a complaint from a network admin he simply doesn't know how to plan an IPv6 deployment properly.

Of course different people have compiled different "wish lists" and other proposals which will then pop up when some news event (etc) gives the opportunity.

It's not really any evidence of conspiracy, or such. Simply that different organisations and people have ideas that they prepare, and put forward when there is an opportunity.

Similarly, the fact that e.g. Russian or American army has written a plan for how to go through Fulda Gap or capture Kiev or close the Bosphorus is not really evidence that the said army is actually about to do such thing. They are simply doing their job by preparing for scenarios.

Indeed, I think any pressure on Cook will come in the form of sanctions against the company itself, forcing the board's hand into firing Cook or convincing him to back down on his stance.
