Deficient means there are lower levels of certain amino acids, but they're not missing entirely. It wouldn't make any biological sense for plants to be missing amino acids. If you read the actual cited source, you will find this:

> Usual dietary combinations of plant proteins are complete; specific plant proteins may be low in specific amino acids

> There is no evidence that amino acid imbalances per se are important; possible imbalances can be created by inappropriate amino acid supplementation, but this is not a practical problem.
Ceteris paribus, the time value of money is a valid consideration. Not sure you read through the entire link and thought about how it applies to both sides of a lending transaction. You may have reasons to disregard it personally, but in an equal comparison being able to spend $X and paying $X Y days from now is strictly preferable to paying $X today.

It's essentially the bedrock of the modern financial system.
To provide at least one data point: My feelings about Comic Sans amount to "meh". I actually think it's a very-well designed font. It's just that people have no idea when it's appropriate and when it isn't.

I saw the light when I realized that Simon Peyton Jones (of Haskell/GHC fame) purposely used Comic Sans in all of his presentations -- just to weed out who was paying attention to the styling over the content. Generally, I think this might be a good principle, but you can definitely take it too far. For example, SPJ's slides are always well-articulated and don't contain L33tsp33k (or whatever we call what the kids use on IM these days).
No.

Tv don't enable you to get a better job/keep your current. If you want the argument to mean anything then you have to trade like for like. A nice couch will last years and it is still a frivolous consumer spending object. Is it worth it to pay ~80 usd to have the couch a year earlier?
Even a dollar a day. I can pay Netflix $10 a month and stream unlimited HD video, but wsj wants $30 to read the first few paragraphs of a few articles a day?

I'd say that is quite the oversimplification you have there. You might want to check some of your base assumptions like how women only desire wealth and looks as well as men only desiring youth and looks. Generalizations tend to be wrong more often than they are right in my experience, and this seems no exception.

Well, I don't know what the limits would be on size, but you seem to be presuming that historical limits are hard limits. I think that is as much a mistake as assuming current sizes are hard limits. It might take crazy levels of oxygen and pressure or it might be undoable, but if we were to create environments for this purpose, hell, why stick to recreating historic earth conditions?
I am really looking forward to the day we get an industry-wide standardized versioning system. I don't care whether it's semver or not, I don't care if it's 98% perfect and 2% pure evil.

This is pretty close to the situation in the US with patent law.

It's technically illegal to make something with a round corner because that's Apple's patent. If you piss off Apple, they'll try to enforce it. If you don't piss them off, they won't care. The law will side with Apple because they have better lawyers than you do.

> The U.A.E. wanted RIM to locate servers in the country, where it had legal jurisdiction over them; RIM had offered access to the data of 3,000 clients instead, the person said.

If it has the access to offer then it seems to support the point.

Particularly:
> RIM respects both the regulatory requirements of government and the security and privacy needs of corporations and consumers. While RIM does not disclose confidential regulatory discussions that take place with any government, RIM assures its customers that it is committed to continue delivering highly secure and innovative products that satisfy the needs of both customers and governments.

What happens when those needs are diametrically opposed?

According to you, you see no problem in being compelled by court order in revealing this information. Because terrorism.

I don't believe that any government has the right to compel you to reveal your heart or private thoughts.

Another commenter said that you believe that torture can be justified - so maybe you really do believe that you can be compelled to finally acknowledge that 2 + 2 = 5, and that this is an acceptable outcome.

Your profile indicates that you're a lawyer - so if the court orders you to turn over confidential client files, you have no problem with that?

Taken out of context, it would be. In context though it's a very important part of the novel. Atticus is telling his son that the next door neighbor who he loathed actually had real courage, not the kind you have with a gun in your hand but courage to stick to your principles all the way to death. Jem and Scout had been hero-worshipping their father a bit since the incident with the rabid dog and he's telling them that here's a different kind of couragee and one he admires more. It also foreshadows Atticus's own upcoming battle to stick to his principles in an impossible situation where he's licked already - and can't use a gun either.
Good initiative
Tolkien is dreck. There I said it. It took my over a year to read Fellowship of the Ring because of how indescribably boring it is.
Gladwell is attempting to make the point that systemic racism took more than hearts and minds to be changed.

I wholeheartedly disagree. In fact, the only way you can change systemic problems is to convince the minds and hearts of people to change.

You cannot simply make new laws and expect everything to go smoothly if few people have changed their minds or hearts. How will you enforce the new laws?

If Google (or any other crawler) wanted to play nice with paywalls, they could issue a public key for their bot, and put a signature in their User Agent string that the domain could then verify.

Those signatures could obviously leak, but on a per-domain basis. Perhaps the domains could have a secure way of bumping the valid key generation if they had a leak.
Mozilla earns about $300 million a year from their deal with Yahoo. The deal runs for five years from Dec 2014 through Dec 2019.[1] When the money from Yahoo runs dry Mozilla will have to go back to Google or Microsoft for a new search deal which will bring in much less than before because Firefox browser share has been falling about 3.7% a year since 2010.[2] Mozilla will be forced to shutter projects and shed staff.

We can put one person's skin and face on another person's motion capture, yes. We can't (as far as I know) make one person appear to have another person's gestures, unless the first person can mimic those movements quite well.

There's a lot of nuance in the spoken voice. Don't be sure audio is easier than motion. (Faking it well enough to fool a computer is easier than fooling a human, though...)

It's an excellent point to bring up, although I would say there's a distinct difference between tracking someone down to find out if they're ok and tracking them down for the types of things mentioned in the article.

Asking "are you ok?" doesn't put pressure on them, unless as Maddox said, they're in witness protection etc.

But remote possibilities like that ought not be a primary consideration. You'd never be able to say anything to anyone without fearing the worst possible outcome.
That is not what the government has said. They've asked for the device manufacturers to submit their products for UL certification.

No bans, recalls, or any other measures have been taken by the government.
Historically, too big to govern would apply not to the number of citizens but to the time information needed to cross the empire.

Hence the famous Rome roads, the Nile for the Egiptians or the excellent communication system of the Incas (there are quite a few other examples) that made those empires possible.

China might have been historically to big to govern with some stability, but with the high speed communication networks of the present that might have changed.
Exactly. And honestly, if you've ever eaten a whole, unpeeled shrimp or prawn before, it's not too much of a stretch going from there to something like crickets. They are both arthropods. They are distantly related. They look kinda-sorta-not-too-dissimilar in their natural state.

The key difference is size. There's a lot more meat in your typical prawn, and this allows you to peal and prep it in a way that distances you from its natural appearance. There's less meat inside the cricket, so you pretty much have to eat it whole, shell and all. The resulting texture is less meaty and more mealy/crunchy.

In my experience eating crickets, I've always been aware that I'm eating crickets. There is no fantastic way to mitigate the texture and the mouthfeel, shy of grinding up the crickets into a powder and reconstituting them in some other form.

(The texture doesn't bug me per se, but it sure does seem to bug a lot of people who've tried crickets. No pun intended.)
>They would also have to build up a completely parallel OS. That would be really expensive.
However, once Apple builds the malicious software, NOW you now have two very clear, very desirable targets.

The same applies to the source code and key now.

The actual software can be locked to the specific phone, so having it wouldn't help. Only having the source code would help, but having the source of iOS would also be very easy to turn into a backdoored version for anyone with the resources to steal it.

Do you not think China etc are capable of modifying source code?

Edit: sure, modifying source code to change the phone ID is a bit simpler than changing source code to not erase the phone on an incorrect password. But the difference seems orders of magnitude smaller than the "getting source code and Apple private keys" difficulty level.

Great to hear that you have this problem, because in the evenings, I am working on a little extension of Pocket that automatically groups saved links by the length of content :) so it's not only me who has the problem, heh.

I have a lot of quality content marked for later and not knowing how long it is (especially when e.g. commuting to work when I have 10 minutes only) is rather annoying. And managing the list isn't something I fancy doing myself (we have computers for that!).

Drop me an email (in my profile) if you want to talk a bit more about this problem.

Unfortunately this will not help your defense. Andrew "Weev" Auernheimer was convicted of violating CFAA for exactly this (although the conviction was later overturned on a technicality).

Again, exceeding authorized access means using your authorized access to obtain information you were not "entitled" to. So the question is not 'were you authorized' but rather it is 'were you entitled' to that information? WTF 'entitled' means is another question entirely, but likely it is in the eye of the beholder. A jury decided Weev was not 'entitled' to the email addresses he downloaded from AT&T, and it's safe to assume we are not 'entitled' to free access to WSJ's content. So I would not rest your hopes on the "200 OK".

(EDIT: sorry, rampant editing. I apologize if you happen to reply to any of my intermediate edits.)

> for/yield is fine. Haskell people love to get excited about the one extra flatten but it's really not a big deal.

No, it's a big deal. It pollutes everything you do in "do" / "for/yield" notation.

Part of why do notation in Haskell is so amazingly beatiful and concise is that it doesn't force this absurd amount of pointless boilerplate on you.

(We can agree that they're technically equivalent, but SYNTAX FUCKING MATTERS, YO)

My thinking here is that Martin Odersky actually understood what was going on at a technical level, but didn't appreciate what was going on at the cognitive level of the programmer... and so just implemented the mechanism.

If you compound this with the semi-recent "cats"/"scalaz" schism over Monad and Functor, thus making us reexperience the monads-tf/monads-fd schism in Haskell-land... making me think that the supremely clever people behind these projects (no sarcasm!) never experienced the pain that comes from split ecosystems. Because if they had, they wouldn't have started "cats" without getting concensus first. My point is that you cannot meaningfully talk about Monad/Functor without that type definition being a core part of the language -- which it isn't in Scala.

Listen, I appreciate that they have a more difficult problem in some sense, because they've accepted subtyping as an actual thing that's useful. But that's their problem. Subtyping generally isn't very useful[1] and they're driven by OOP ideology... which is fine per se, but don't complain when it doesn't work out -- when the problems of subtyping are well-known and have been for the last 20-30 years.

[1] Use lenses and contra-/covariant functors instead when you actually need it.

> One little unmanaged println isn't going to destroy the universe. The fact that Haskell will invisibly transform your code into lazy thunks, radically altering its performance characteristics, causes a lot more trouble IME.

Yes, it will. Because it isn't just a little "println" here and there (in practice). The deal here is: I can mechanically scan all the code for unsafePerformIO and unsafeInterleaveIO, etc. I cannot scan Scala code mechanically for unsafe things because the possibilities are almost literally infinte. It's about "permit evil selectively" vs. "forbid evil when you see it". The latter doesn't work.
I don't think that's an entirely fair assessment of what they've done. Most of their core apps are developed in house, or by a different group that I'm reasonably certain they fund (though I could be wrong on that point).

Additionally, Ubuntu does the exact same thing, and has been doing it for longer than Elementary. As soon as you click "download" on their overview page, you're sent to a contribute page. Sure, Ubuntu has a link in plain text that directly says you can download without contributing, but it's not immediately apparent either.

Arguing that it's immoral for Elementary to ask for money, even if they don't fund Ubuntu, Debian, and the Linux Kernel directly is the same as arguing it's immoral for Canonical to ask for money because they either don't, or only very minimally fund Debian and the Linux Kernel from what I've seen.

There still isn't a TV on the market (that I know of) that is obsolete after a year, not even five years. As long as the inputs (hdmi, dvi, RCA) work then the TV is not obsolete. It may not have the newest features (4k, "smart" connectivity) but it is every bit as usable (and many of the smart features can be added with a ROKU, Apple TV or the like).

Video and Films are my business and my TV is a nearly 5 year old LG plasma that still performs great. And I only bought it because my ex kept the Panasonic plasma after the break-up or I'd probably be using an 8 year old TV.

Are there any reports of smart TVs not working completely (inputs stop working) because the "smart" connected features stop working?
