You'd be hard pressed to find any, other than anecdata.

Yesterday, a small woman was assaulted (just pushed hard, luckily she did not fall) in front of me by a woman who was clearly off kilter (rambling to herself, shouting periodically to noone, etc.).

One day, a similarly off-balance gentleman started hurling obscenities at me and threatened to punch me. He was a foot away from me, and I was on the MUNI train, so nowhere to go. I stared him down as his spittle flew in my direction, and he walked away. Coincidentally(?) I came down with the worst throat infection a few days later.

And then another time a guy who had severely bad hygiene problems got on the N train, which was already crowded.... and then the train goes into the tunnel before Inner Sunset. I have never felt so nauseated in my life. As soon as the train got out of the tunnel, half the carriage emptied, with people gasping for air.

And then one time a mentally ill person (from appearance) got on the bus, stood behind a young woman and started slowly humping her. I would have done something, but he was huge.

And then there was this time a mentally ill guy was walking down the sidewalk, totally in his own world... but the asshole grabbed my crotch as I walked by.

In contrast, I have never seen such a thing being done by a non-mentally-ill person.

> The axioms don't have to be true. You can still talk about their implications in absolute terms.

No, you can't. Two mathematicians using different rules of inference (say, those of classical vs. intuitionistic logic) will arrive at different theorems, even if they begin from the same axioms.

> "Assuming a=0 implies a=0" is absolutely true.

Assuming that “a = 0” and implication are both expressible in our formal system, it would indeed be very weird (though not a priori impossible) if “a = 0” didn't imply “a = 0”. But I have no problem imagining a formal system where “a = 0” isn't expressible (e.g., because equality is inexpressible), or implication isn't expressible (e.g., geometric logic), or implication has strange properties to someone only familiar with the classical and/or intuitionistic interpretation of “implication” (e.g., linear logic).

Or, from another perspective, Content ID is one of the best things about YouTube. Rather than all videos with copyrighted content being taken down, many get to stay up and viewable, and the owner of the content is happy because they can still get paid.

The "three strikes" system isn't Content ID, that's the DMCA process, which are the laws that YouTube has operate within. One of the great things that about Content ID is that it provides a better appeals system than the DMCA provides, so that things can be fixed before the DMCA process kicks in and the video is taken down.

I am so envious of your experience.

You're trying to solve a social problem with technology. That can work sometimes, but I seriously doubt it will work here.

The problem with this is that the content producers have incentives to add content they get paid for, and people who pay to have others shove content in front of readers have an incentive to make that content as eye-catching as possible.

So first it's just text. Then it's bold and underline, both of which have legitimate uses in real content but both of which are also obviously useful for ads. Then it's blinking, and to hell with light-sensitive epileptics. Then it's all over.

The alternative is the old radio trick of weaving all of the content together as tightly as possible, so it all gets consumed in one big gulp. That has implications for long-term credibility, but that's a long-term problem beyond the time horizon of the bills your financial people just got today, and then there's payroll...

In July, 2008, then Senator Barack Obama voted for telecom immunity from lawsuits for illegal wiretapping.

In October, 2007 he had promised to filibuster any attempt to give telecoms retroactive immunity.

So this counts in my book as his first broken campaign promise, and proof that he hoped to continue warrantless wiretapping before he became President.

And why would not the same effect play out with hispanics?
And why do 2nd and 3rd generation asians so utterly dominate STEM subjects at elite US universities that there are de-facto quotas to limit asians?

But most of all, how did those Indians and Chinese acquire those superior STEM skills without access to the educational resources that are given to all US citizens?
> Does it really matter when he decided to take this course of action? I think what matters is that he did.

I would hope a President (or any politician really) would feel free to change their mind as they're presented with evidence they weren't previously familiar with. Or maybe their own priorities have even changed 8 years later and that's influenced their change of heart. That sort of thing happens.

Just because I might disagree with their conclusion or interpretation doesn't mean they shouldn't be free to reevaluate.

One of the most hollow, worthless political insults is to call someone a "flip flopper" IMO. It panders to ignorance. I want politicians to be persuaded by the facts. To not be zealous idealogues.
The situation you describe is the precise reason that the United States has the RICO act[1]. Prove that someone is involved in a scumbag organization (insert legalese for "scumbag" here)and they're guilty just like the person who committed the crime.

Our system, while admittedly imperfect, prioritizes protecting the innocent over punishing the guilty (obviously it's more complicated than that, but that's the core)

The C category.

A 4th category is probably needed for statically compiled, garbage collected, OOP languages.

The reality is, most/all of the most popular languages blur the lines.

Javascript is getting official support for OOP as well as better support for functional programming.

C# has good support for dynamic typing as well as many functional characteristics.

High performance Python has always had the ability to delegate to C extensions.

I get what you're saying but I don't think we should hold up Reddit as a gold standard of accessibility.

I'm fairly technically proficient and I have a hard time figuring out how to "onboard" myself to Reddit and to understand the whole system. It's relatively intimidating.

If we want to stick to text-only, I think HN is actually a better example. Of course, Facebook is really the pinnacle of broad accessibility.

You can't have the same axioms with different rules of inference. The rules of inference are axioms.

By the axioms being the same, you mean the ink-shapes making up the symbols on a piece of paper being the same.

Not the actual meaning behind them.

Edit: Since you added more content to this reply later on, let me respond. In this case I was talking about specifically a formal system where a=0 makes sense and is expressible, but to keep it short and concise I didn't choose to write out all the details. So the rebuttal is moot.
I originally wrote a long comment about how I've written CPAN modules and worked professionally in perl but will never do it again, explaining why technical betamax superiority was irrelevant because perl's users left before it got its act together, but I think in hindsight a simpler summary would be this: grep 'man perldsc' ~/.bash_history|wc -l

Same as you, I tried a bunch of various to-do list apps before but none of them worked out well for me.

Then I realized that the process of breaking down workload and personal life into small tasks does not fit well in a to-do list app context.

What worked for me was using something like BusyCal, which is a souped-up calendar. It was more aligned with the 'breaking down' process because I used the 'banner' feature to help me define my weekly goals then I proceed with tasks assigned with specific chunks of time.

I then track the planned vs actual time spent using letsfreckle.com, which is a time tracking tool.

For the more higher-level stuff (ie. monthly goals, yearly goals), I just keep them in Trello.

As for habits, I have a weekly review to check where I am vs monthly goals and I also use that review to allocate tasks into my calendar.
I think your objection is less to codes of conduct as such than to their usual contents and the kind of environment they intend to create. You can have a very different code of conduct, e.g., one that goes something like this:

1. Don't be rude.

2. Don't be stupid.

3. Check your identity politics at the door.

4. Listen to the moderators.

5. Do not complain about rules 1-5.

Various groups had faced real discrimination in the job market - jews, italians, irish, etc. Here's one piece of historical trivia - Warren Buffett could not get his first Wall Street job because the company he really wanted to work for had a policy of only hiring Jews - because all other Wall Street banks would not.

Ie industries had real 'no X allowed' policies in place - not this 'Oh, I don't feel like being the only black guy in the room'. Well too bad for you - the job will pay money to someone else who doesn't necessarily have to be around people like them.

Today whites, Asians and Indians are supposed to feel bad because other ethnicities don't make sufficient effort to join the industry? I'm sorry, I don't.
A major problem seems to be that 'ex-cops' don't like inspecting 'cops'. However, balancing powers between three entity's seems to work well.

Agency A inspects agency B, agency B inspects C, C inspects A. That way B can't threaten A.

As a bonus it really set's things up so they get antagonistic with each other.
Electric cars /= no more burning oil.

It's hard to find numbers, but the oil burnt to move passenger cars is nowhere near the entirety of oil consumption, even if looking only at transportation. Cars are not trucks. An electric replacement of the diesel semi-trailer remains a long way off. Cars are also not ships (big consumers) aircraft or trains (smaller consumers). Getting to the point that we are no longer burning oil for purposes of transportation is far harder than everyone getting a tesla.

Has anyone seen a practical attempt at an electric long-haul truck, container ship, or other large diesel engine?
I am pretty fluent in ruby, which I learned after PHP specifically because I wanted to migrate, and I really enjoy using it. However, compared to PHP ruby is slow, it took ages before it had a half-decent unicode solution, and once you step out of the rails rah-rah it's a bit desolate on quality libraries... there's 10 half-built versions of everything, and no decent go-to implementation. On the plus side, ruby is nominally better for reflective metaprogramming, but that's really a rare use case.

I personally install KXStudio[0] for guys just like you almost monthly. here's some appropriate[1] pornography[2]. Imagine being able to have a skype call with someone, and be able to record their vocals (provided they have a good mic) apply effects, and then record _and_ pipe the vocals back to the vocalist in realtime. Or make recording snippets of audio off youtube trivial. Or stream live instruments in other rooms over wifi/ethernet using only a raspberry pi and a good microphone. Or stream 8 of those tracks/instruments (on different devices) to one computer for mastering/final mixing. It's audio nerd nirvana, basically.

Separation of power ideally means that enforcement and evaluation of the law are separate instances.

It doesn't work in practice. Indeed, having more laws to help enforce basic laws would seem absurd, if the practice of lawgiving was in principle wrong. But lessening law would seem absurd, if avoiding lawlessness was the idea in the first place.
> If you move a block of code to a place just after e.g. a loop, it isn't clear whether it should be inside or outside the loop, your editor cannot guess this. You still need to tell it at what level the new code should be inserted. And if the end of the loop happens to be nested further, the ambiguity is exacerbated.

1. Move the cursor to wherever you want to put the block
2. Hit paste
3. Your editor adjusts the indentation so the entire pasted block is inserted as if you just keyed it in

It's simple and reliable and as a bonus it's portable across any language where the code is indented correctly.

> The closing brace doesn't mean anarchy, or make the code harder to understand later.

It's true that well-written C code can be almost exactly the same but the difference is that the world is full of sloppy C code where someone hammered out a bunch of changes, decided it was too much work to format it so the visual display matched the actual parsed structure, and left a trap for the next developer who touches that code. Yes, hopefully they'll review & test carefully but, as with e.g. memory management, we have decades of proof that depending on programmers to consistently follow desirable practice is a losing battle unless it's enforced by tools.

The point isn't that braces are bad and that whitespace is good but that Python will refuse to execute one class of sloppy code. Imagine if GCC made this flag mandatory or Clang refused to compile anything which didn't pass cleanly through clang-tidy – the benefit wouldn't be due to the braces but from the fact that one category of error would simply no longer be possible and every C developer on the planet would spend less time on cosmetic differences when reading other people's code.
I do not know, what I do know is their economies at this time rely heavily on oil exports and importing everything else. Places like Dubai only function because of tax free status propped up by oil. It would take a lot of plastic, and we are talking about multiple countries as well in the same situation.

If oil prices dont recover in the next 1 - 2 years we will likely see massive policy changes in the oil producing countries, which are likely to be very unpopular.

I believe he is absolutely correct when it comes to curiosity increasing the likelihood of survival of a species (ignoring the species problem https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Species_problem). Because others learn from the curiosity of others as well as the one that is curious.

I don't know about the US but in Canada a "Justice of the Peace" has a full-time job to signs police warrants not regular judges who deal with criminal cases. I've hear that Justices rarely deny police requests and they deal with police all day... there is never a defense attorney present when wiretaps are agreed upon. Oversight is always well after-the-fact.

They are only ever question way later into the legal process (sometimes over a year afterwards) and always with a different judge and circumstances.

Law enforcement have a far easier job getting it approved than it is for defendants to question it's legitamcy. And even if it is ruled illegal the wiretap still happened and the defendants privacy was still unduly violated. But there is almost never any repercussions outside of the potentially losing a legal case against a defendant.

The chains of responsibility between where decision-making takes place and scrutiny is made are very disconnected.
