I prefer Foundation because I think the grid system is superior as suggested by the author and I think it's much easier to style in such a way that the site looks like your own. As many have pointed out, many 'Bootstrap' sites look like 'Bootstrap' sites. My biggest gripe about Foundation is that beyond Mad Mimi's Foundation 5 port there aren't as many high quality tools to use Angular with Foundation compared to all the Bootstrap Angular tools.
Remember, Apple refused to unlock it because the FBI wanted their capability of doing so be publicly advertised: https://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/46k4ke/apple_ha...

There seems to be much more to this beyond the actual capabilty and it doesn't seem the spin 'apple fighting for our rights' which mainstream media loves is the most likely, so I wpuldn't say FBI hasn't accomplished its goal - especially if it was to cast doubt on Apple security, as they're now basically advertised they can do it no matter what. Unless FBI agreed to previous apple request and they did it togheter under cover.
which is why I dont understand the "let's just buy them from canada" mentality

buying drugs abroad just skirts ip price fixing. we can skirt price fixing here by making drugs and not paying the ransom costs.

should the government be able to pull eminent domain on lifesaving drugs?

should all drugs purchased with public funds (ex medicare) be exempt from any cost/margin past manufacturing?

it feels to me like importing from canada is having cake and eating it too. we either agree that full drug prices are legitimate or we agree they are unethical. you cant pretend both are compatible worldviews.

IMO, Bootstrap v4 is much stronger than Foundation for many reasons. Here's one...

b4 has a much stronger "foundation." What do I mean by that? Well to be honest if you actually look at the HTML structure of both frameworks, you'll see that b4 is not only utilizing more modern techniques but that they have reduced and simplified their markup. ie, navigation items. b4 uses <div>'s for each nav element which allows for more control while foundation is using an older technique of unordered list items.

This is just one example of how b4 takes a more wholistic approach to every aspect of their framework. I don't fault foundation at all and it probably has to due with the talent of the core b4 team as well as the massive community that they have, but I can't see a use case where I'd choose foundation over b4.

> The question is not how do we create living-wage jobs for the American worker, the question is how do we get the American worker to quit his job and start a business

Quite a bit, to be honest. Think about the response on social media to a post where a person starts a new company to one where a person announces he has a new job. The latter usually has more comments than the former.
The narrative in America is still largely influenced by the post WWII and baby boomer eras. Go to school, find a job, work for a few decades, retire, and travel the world. Starting a business is considered risky. These need to change. The reality needs to be accepted by many people (including myself). Working for someone else is just as risky, if not more, than working for yourself. After all, you can put in a huge amount of effort, and find yourself on the street due to some exec's whim to reorg. Entrepreneurship is risky since the vast majority of new businesses fail, but the point that needs to be made is that each failure is a step in the process that leads to success.

Additionally, we need to reduce the message of consumerism. Think about it, after work and family, most people will sit on the couch and watch TV, rather than do creative or hard work. I do know the value of mental and physical relaxation, but the average American spends 5 hours watching TV. (how the hell do they find that much time?) If people took even an hour of that, and dedicated it to creative work or self improvement, they'd be in much better shape, mentally, physically, and emotionally. But that requires effort, and it's easier to live vicariously through others via some reality TV show.

I currently use Bootstrap, but have been looking at Bourbon recently along with it's suite of components (Neat, Bitters and Refills). It offers a nice set of mixins for semantic grids and common components. My only concern is working with other developers where Bootstrap is almost a common language.
> These were, for the most part, the same exact people

That's a drastic oversimplification. The majority of the Russian Left was made up of SR (which later split, but for the sake of it they can be treated as one group), and the Mensheviks. The Bolsheviks split the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party (with the other part being the Mensheviks) roughly down the middle, but the moderates outnumbered them substantally.

Already shortly after their coup (the czar was arrested in the spring; the interim government was SR led from the summer; in November the Bolsheviks decisively lost the election to the the Constituent Assembly, and that's when they struck - there was no revolution, but a coup d'etat against a more moderate socialist government that had the support of the people), the Bolsheviks started getting rid of the parts of the Russian Left that had opposed them, and soon groups were actively fighting them in the civil war, while others were fighting to stay out of prisons or to avoid being killed, and some forged uneasy, temporary alliances in the hope of survival. Soon their parties were illegal. As Stalin gained control, the purges intensified, including purging the Bolshevik party itself.

The Russian left changed because the moderates (including communists/marxists) were imprisoned or murdered for opposing the Bolsheviks, until there were hardly any left.

The Bolsheviks, or at least their leadership, largely remained the same people, but in 1900, and all the way to at least 1917, they were by far outnumbered on the Russian left by their future victims.
If this is the problem then virtualenv is a better solution. Now that I think about it it could be useful on platforms where Ansible is not available (Windows?).

A few more comments: you could use pip instead of apt-get for an up-to-date version of Ansible, and you may want to create a Virtualbox share to access the project from the Ansible VM. Also does it actually work? I'm asking because I can't see anything to sort out the SSH credentials.

...and those profits are not being reinvested in new projects, new ventures, and new markets.

Instead, large corporations have been accumulating historically high amounts of cash, which is just sitting on their balance sheets, idle.[1]

It's definitely not due to lack of greed. Corporations in the US are very much driven by profit motives: whenever they identify an opportunity to make a profit from customers, they take advantage of it.

Therefore, it must be that they aren't identifying enough attractive opportunities in which to invest that growing mountain of cash.

Meanwhile, the US middle class appears to be struggling with stagnant wages and limited opportunity.[2]

We have engine trouble, and no agreement on how to fix it.

Good points. I think that it's probably more complete to say that "Western nations (and Russia and China and India...) cast a long, but declining, shadow across the history of the Middle East." The collapse of the post-imperial order was probably inevitable and is a demonstration of exactly the fragility of Western regional influence.

"What we should really be talking about is improving these tests and beefing up operational security."

We have a real-world instance of the DRM problem here. Once you've put a static exam physically into the hands of the students, it's compromised. The attackers have massively, massively more resources than the defenders. The attackers can hire a hundred students to each take one picture of one page, and put the test back together themselves. And there's no way that the proctors can prevent students sneaking one picture of one page nowadays.

(Also, I'm not saying that's an optimal attack. I just put about 5 seconds' thought into it. But it's a sufficient attack already, so the existence of even further clever attacks only makes my point stronger.)

Even presenting the problems one at a time on a screen (massively more expensive, btw, due to brand new hardware requirements, plus introduction of other attack vectors) would not be sufficient. Clever games played with contrast or whatever won't work because the test needs to be highly accessible, so you can't play games like the old copy protection booklets [1], either.

Basically, if the test is static, it's game over.

Not that students aren't fairly good at cheating with dynamic questions. But those really only work well with the math questions, and even the dumbed-down calculators they still sell today can be convinced to run programs sufficient to "crack" any dynamic problems that the test companies can get their hands on for the math portions.

It's basically hopeless. The adversaries have gotten too darned powerful. They're armed with too much gear that would make old-school spies weep tears of joy.

Saw an interesting proposal on HN a few months ago WRT entrance exams:

My university just allows anyone into first semester, but then has quite hard courses and exams there already – by the end of the second semester, 90% have already failed.

That’s another way to solve the >10x applicants issue.

Seems like a great way to reduce administrative overhead, judge based on merit, and get students to realistically self-select a college (if you don't, you waste a semester and the associated costs). Problem is that the exams select only for people that are good at taking exams - not always the most interesting/well rounded students.

While you are empirically correct that banks don't earn the significant amounts of money just from individual savings accounts, it would be logically flawed to assume that savings accounts (a means of collecting temporary use of additional funds relatively cheaply) are designed to be profitable. It's an interesting market where the product you are harvesting is the one which is used to buy that product.

The banks that you or I recognise as every day banks almost certainly don't make their money on corporate loans. The margins aren't high enough. The only point I would agree with from this article is that when companies become large enough they tend towards becoming banks.

The nuance here is that a traditional bank makes the bulk of its money by having control of the bulk of your money so they can sell stuff like homeloans, as you mentioned with the housing market, which aren't glamorous, but do make bucket loads of money.

An organisation that didnt start out as a purely financially focused investment/risk management machine but which does become, technically, a bank is an organisation which grows large enough that it needs to give some money back to fund all the people buying its wares. As an example, look at IBM - who do you think loans money to companies who pay billions for an IBM project? Often its IBMs Global Financial Services business. They can give you a killer rate because everything you borrow is used to fund another part of the business and can be fed back into the cycle.

The more interesting situation with Apple is that they, almost exclusively, sell consumer goods. So they are stuck with customers who probably can't afford to, and aren't at all motivated to, take out large loans to pay for their new gadget (Hence apple partnerships with enterprises ie. the aforementioned IBM as they struggle to get out of the consumer goods market. Note - this is not to imply that IBM is doing better than apple, they just have much wealthier customers)

The only thing that I'm relatively sure about is that apple isn't seeking to trump mastercard and visa, as the article seems to suggest, nor to become the bank of the people, because both options make less financial sense than continuing to be insanely profitable as technical designers and manufacturers in a cross-industry market such as technology.

Free software is not a good analogy. It works regardless of the social and political opinions of the people who write it.

This is completely false: every act of writing or releasing Free software is a political act. That's the point of doing it, of giving your labour away. Free software only exists because of the social and political opinions of its authors.

"The complaint charges Microsoft with trademark infringement, false advertising, breach of contract, unfair competition, interference with prospective economic advantage, and inducing breach of contract."[1]

You probably know this, but Java-the-language is not the same as Java-the-platform (VM); Google only uses the language bit, not the runtime. They created their own runtime (Dalvik, and later ART) with its own bytecode format. What Microsoft did was implement an intentionally-incompatible JVM, hopefully you see the differences between Google and Microsoft's action (both technical and the reasoning behind the actions)

Yeah, Elm has a far simpler type system at the moment (no ad-hoc polymorphism for example), so it cuts down on the difficulty of experimenting with new ways of displaying errors. Which I think is a good thing to do, especially seeing as one of the goals of Elm is to make static type systems more 'friendly' to a wider audience. But it is definitely going to push the developers of more complex languages to improve their developer experience - we in the Rust world are certainly taking note!

The source of the content is irrelevant (however interesting, TIL). There are too many companies disseminating the same content, as you point out, for free to make the other companies viable unless the consumers feel particularly inclined to that given company. The New York Times, for example, would probably have an easier time getting subscribers than the Dubuque Telegraph-Herald because they have more reputation, deserved or not.

From pure market forces though which the vast majority of consumers operate on, they have no reason to subscribe to NYT -or- DTH because there are a thousand other small papers distributing that same article as you've pointed out for free.

"Good" journalism is extremely subjective and in my experience aligns more with the political leanings of the consumer than with any measurable qualities. I'm not saying it's ALL crap of course, there are plenty of real reporters researching real things (ironically enough, most of them are at Buzzfeed lately) but the vast majority of coverage is just parroting other publications with their own slant added to avoid copyright issues. I mean how many times has some completely made up and utterly nonsense story gone from a twitter post to all over our most credible newspapers because nobody bothered to Google it before putting on Page 1?
I know pretty much what happened.

The fact is that Google forked all of it.

You cannot use anything besides a pseudo Java 6.5 (the language), because there isn't support for all features available.

You cannot make use of the full Java SDK libraries, because Google's fork only supports cherry picked portions of the JDK, to the point that people have ported JDK classes to Android to close the gaps when porting Java code.

You cannot rely JVM features, because Dalvik/ART don't support everything that it is possible in a certified JVM like invokedynamic or more updated JNI versions.

The fact is that Google broke the Java eco-system, regardless how Google fanboys want to paint the picture that Google != Microsoft.

They tried to screw Sun and take advantage of their economic misfortune.
