Joomla SecurityCheck Extension SQL injection exploit in the wild
What's so wrong about that? All the heavy browser lifting is done by the browser engine, which is native, and everything else is just... chrome. Which doesn't really have huge performance requirements.
I'm an upper-middle class, over-educated professional expert, and I'm strongly liberal for selfish reasons: mostly, I want to live in a climate of social peace, and would prefer to be surrounded by people who foster a mood of solidarity and benevolence, rather than a cut-throat and ever-worsening competitive mindset.

So sure, one way is to protect myself and those I love behind a gated community. But that's pretty much voluntarily throwing myself to jail, I'd rather make it less necessary for others to be aggressive against my kin. I believe it requires more (and smarter) redistribution.

Another reason why it's my selfish interest, as a professional expert, to continuously reshuffle wealth, is that my social value resides in what I know and in my ability to learn, not in my family's accumulated wealth. Stabilising accumulated wealth, especially across generations, would make it harder to use my skills in order to climb higher on the social ladder.

Is my education a factor in this view? Probably.

* It helps me grasping some sociological insights which ought to be obvious. For instance, while hearing political speeches about wealth (re)distribution, I stay aware that the property laws are a social construct that must be agreed upon and can be altered at will by society, not a natural (let alone a God-given) law.

* It exposed me to a lot of competition, in school then at work, and although I've been a winner on average, I aspire to more fulfilling activities than turning others into losers. I have no revenge to take on others people, I don't enjoy crushing them.

* Having gone from penniless undergrad to minimum-wage PhD student to well-paid junior then senior specialist, I've experienced a variety of wealth levels. As a result I'm convinced that once basic needs are addressed, monetary incentives don't work the way Adam Smith' sycophants pretend they do. Money's meaningful as a way to keep score, and to compare myself among my social peers; but taxes don't affect that much, as long as they don't reverse relative wealth between potential peers.

Yes, but at least passing interface events doesn't require issuing a HTTP request to some server located halfway across the globe, and it gets at least some of the native metaphors right.

It still looks and feels like a square peg in a round hole (not to mention slower than a drunk tortoise), but it's a little better than a web page thing.
What do you think Liberal means? In the UK, as well as in the USA, it generally doesn't mean "the market solves everything" (You might be thinking of Libertarianism[1]).

The article explicitly references redistributive economic views, quite the reverse of the market-centric view you attach to the label.

Makes sense, but it still shouldn't preclude my companion app from pushing pins to my watch's timeline completely off-line. The sane model seems to be a timeline stored locally on your Pebble app that can be synced to the Pebble cloud. What I understand from the current model is that Pebble app is just a dumb cache.
Yes, and no. When compared to Alteryx we say EasyMorph does 50% of what Alteryx does for 10% of its price :) EasyMorph is more lightweight than Alteryx and is not positioned as a big data tool. Although in general it serves the same purpose with more focus on ad hoc data analysis and profiling.
There's a big difference between relying on a self-hosted product vs. a remote-hosted one. If your self-hosted software is suddenly no longer available, you have plenty of time to come up with a migration strategy, while you continue to use the obsolete product. If Yahoo Messenger went away, it would immediately disrupt business for all who rely on it.

Not to mention that any enterprise Linux user worth their salt has an expensive support contract with a major vendor (such as Red Hat). Either that, or they're confident that they have the in-house resources to support it. No enterprise user considers Linux to be "free as in beer", by any stretch of the imagination; rather, they're using it because it's the right tool for the job.
It's an old our idea, in PhotoSpotLand, patent pending, here an article o TC about:

I was just talking about exactly this like 3 days ago with my one of my friends, awesome stuff, good job!!
Sure do.

If you're running IPFS locally use this link: http://127.0.0.1:8080/ipfs/QmPo9savMewcGCzUhzNQi96b6gSSoQ4k4...

If not, use this one (public IPFS gateway) http://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmPo9savMewcGCzUhzNQi96b6gSSoQ4k4DFEVkF5...

Be aware, there is no sound with this video. You'll have to add it from your own sources (nor did I want to add the sound from my dvd set).

And frankly, IPFS is awesome :)
This has always confused me. There are some rich texts based on beautiful rigor on the side of the conservatives like freidman and Hayek. Goldwater also approaches things in a very principled manner. Arthur brooks' latest book is similar.

On the other than, I have not come across any liberal text, yet, that makes a good convincing case for liberalism. I would love to get some recommendations. I'm interested in principled arguments for liberalism. If there are so many highly educated people who are liberal, I would assume there are certain foundational texts that argue their position. Basically, I'm looking for "freedom to choose" of the left.
You know, like an African swallow vs a European swallow.
There is a lot of security considerations to make a browser. JavaScript based technologies are not well known for their security.

"Libertarianism is wedded to an epistemological humility...we know we don’t know as much as we think we know."
Given that Adversarially Learned Inference came out yesterday, the best approach may be to just wait a couple of months and see what the state of the art is then.
What you describe is conservatism, not liberalism.

Edit: downvotes? really?
On the subject of YouTube related chrome extensions, I created one called WikiTube a couple of years ago. Its super simple, and just adds relevant YouTube videos to the top of Wikipedia pages. I'm quite happy with it

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/wikitube/aneddidib...
I'm not exactly sure. Perhaps because they're simple, rational, and can be universalized.
It says in the post that "To get access to the most relevant Yahoo technology, due to contractual obligations that call has to be associated with a Yahoo domain, in this case, duckduckgo-owned-server.yahoo.net."

I'm curious about these contractual obligations. It seems Yahoo is making a lot of effort to ensure compatibility with DDG and its users, why insist on a trivial hostname matter?
It's awesome that they implement an email client. (hopefully open source)

Opera Mail and Thunderbird were good free email clients, but now discontinued.

What options are there (PC)? Outlook, Windows 10 Mail, Windows Live Mail/Outlook Express, Thunderbird, IBM Notes, OSX Mail.

Ideally, I would like an email client that is as powerful as Outlook, has the UI of Google mail (especially the conversation view), has superb IMAP support, runs on my PC and stores all emails on disk. What's disappointing is that many email clients still have no conversation view (or a broken one like Outlook), just a "sent" and "inbox" folder, and this in 2016.
> "For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled."

If XXI century is proving anything it's that while Nature cannot be fooled, humans can, and rather trivially so. More and more businesses have discovered that spending money on marketing has much better ROI than spending it on making a useful, valuable product.

Want a quick proof in a tech sphere? Just look at the IoT market.
The power of a REPL should not be underestimated. This is like that for web development I guess.
In Aus the right wing party is the Liberal party.
I have also considered this question, my answer is that the party on the "right" will have a core mission of maintaining the power and wealth of the powerful and wealthy.

This is, unsuprisingly, not a great vote winner for the masses. So around this core mission they need to build a platform, and so they pick the easiest way to attract voters to this cause up until the point when they get a majority that's able to actually fulfil the core mission.

This explains lots of interesting things about politics. Why do the right hate foreigners, gays, athiests, muslims, transexuals etc. Why do they love patriotisms and wars and the good old days? Is there any obvious link between "good business" or "small government" and hating gays? The basic answer is that it's a cheap way to rally people to your cause.

Nowadays it's common for right wing people to be openly gay, when for a long time they had to be hypocritical and keep it secret while attacking their own community. But cleary there's no direct link between sexuality and political orientation, the party just decided to start a culture war against a powerless minority for their own profit and some people ended on the wrong side of the line.

Just think Buzzfeed but for politics, they want your click/vote, and they'll plumb the depths of human psychology to find out what they need to say to get it.

Corbyn is like the anti-buzzfeed. Dry boring headlines about what's actually important. Let's try pacificism, and consider that perhaps the people who died on the other side of our wars were actually human too.

So I would say it's irrational, most people are if they don't put time and effort into not being. And if someone has a financial interest in you not being rational, they have a good head start and some obvious levers to push to get what they want.
Sure, but telling an ordinary worker that they need to give up their livelihood in the now, for a net long term benefit that he or she may not live to see, is a hard sell.
This reminds me very much of Parag Mital's work on audiovisual resynthesis: http://pkmital.com/home/

>It didn’t dawn on me that there might be a few holes in my education until I was about 35. I’d just bought a house, the pipes needed fixing, and the plumber was standing in my kitchen.

Hehe, the obvious hole in his education was of course that he couldn't fix his pipes himself. :)

Anyway, would you care to summarize or just briefly mention what point the article argues?
I don't get the mystery. They were asleep in the tent at night. Then something happened, presumably near the door, that caused them all to panic. Nine people panicking in a tent, at night, in 1950s Russia. They wouldn't have had lights, at least not the fancy flashlights were are used to today. So someone opened up the tent wall with a knife and they all fled into the night.

Depending on weather, once you are 10+ feet from the tent in the dark, you could be in big trouble. The trail of bodies flows from there. Some walk, some stay put, others move later, some fall/slip and are injured... nothing here seems very odd.

Now, what happened to freak them out? It could be any number of things. The sound of a suspected avalanche coupled with a tent pole failing could start a panic. An aircraft could sound like an avalanche. An aircraft dropping a few flares could also put them in fear of incoming weapons. Or it could just have been someone shouting something at exactly the correct time. The power of suggestion is hard to fight in such a group. The group feeds on itself. Someone says "run" and the herd moves.
Such a cool idea! Installed and I already love it!
This.

This. This. This. This. This.

I believe the value of the social networking platform to a user is inverse to the maturity of the company.

Facebook has already become choked with it's own content and advertisements so the next generation migrate to a "cleaner" platform. The centre of gravity shifts. New platform monetises and the choking cycle begins anew...

The stages -

Stage 1:

Platform Exclusivity

Platform Coveted

Platform Expanded

Stage 2:

Platform Opened

Platform Developed (upon)

Platform Expanded

Stage 3

Platform Monetised

PLatform Curated

Platform Locked (to previous developers to protect revenue streams)

Stage 4

Platfrom Alternatives

Platform Decline

Platform Obsolescence

You could, quite easily Venn Diagram where the current social media services are and how they are eating the older's market share. As platforms lock developers out, other pre-revenue companies are opening up to those developers stealing previously allegiant demographics.

> in the rest of the world is rather to the right of centre

I find "rest of the world" hard to justify. The Indian right-wing are Hindu hardliners, but economically not all that different from the "center-left" INC, both of which, are IMO, way more left-wing than the US Democratic party when it comes to economics. Socially, all parties here pander to their regional (as opposed to national) voterbases. The Pakistani right-wing also seems to oppose economic liberalism (i.e. capitalism). Looking beyond this region, each country seems to have its own "left-right" divide, while not sharing much in the ideology of another country's "left-right" divide.
I always go with strcmp(...) == 0 instead of !strcmp(...).

This better reinforces my mental model of it (like many comparison functions) having 3 possible return values: <0, =0, or >0. !strcmp(...) may be terser, but it is illogical in that logical not isn't an operator. I dig using it on booleans, or "booleanish" values (null vs non-null pointers), but this conceptual tri-state isn't even "booleanish". But C didn't have a proper bool type for awhile, and C++ inherited it's baggage, so they'll compile it.

Meanwhile C# doesn't even think my "booleanish" tests are logical enough to allow to compile - no null reference tests with "operator!" for me.
You're thinking of what "liberal" means in most of Europe: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_liberalism

But the article talks about a different kind: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberalism_in_the_United_State...
> I didn't say left or right, or Democrat/Republican once.

Okay, but the article did, and so do the statistics, and that was certainly the framing of your original comment. The crux of the question is why our universities are churning out individuals that align so strongly with the politics of the left, not necessarily liberalism.

I am completely comfortable admitting that policies of the right are sold more often with FUD than policies of the left. What I resent is the implication that there isn't an argument to be made beyond the FUD.
In practice any kind of technology is only as good as its developers.

And I doubt that the security record of "Javascript based technologies" is better or worse than the security record of "C/C++ based technologies", for that matter.

As a purely theoretical point, "Javascript based technologies" have the advantage of automatic memory management, which, again, theoretically, removes an attack vector almost entirely.

Getting back on track, a browser is engine + UI. Vivaldi uses Chromium as the engine. HTML/JS are used just for the UI.
Generally, when people say "liberal" in Europe they mean "economically liberal", while people mean "socially liberal" in the US.

Ahhh... We'll regardless it's great. I've been using it since almost inception. Many thousands of saved and tagged sites. It's the tags that make it great.
Mapping Australian politics to the USA is crazy. All sides end up being really left in comparison. Even sanders views on guns are right wing in Australia.
Is Atom a web browser? :)

I'm pretty sure that they mean Vivaldi is unique as a browser built entirely using modern web technologies.

PS: I'm not saying they're right, I haven't researched to find out if there are other HTML/JS based browsers (aka with browser chrome built in HTML/JS).
Thunderbird had a stable release 3 days ago and a preview 14 days ago. Development on it is still very much alive.

Not that great a movie but their cause of the incident made it worth watching. I don't remember seeing that setup before.
I wonder why basically all new browser projects use Webkit / Blink, and none use Gecko)? This only strenghtens Google's position regarding the implementation of web standards. Recently Microsoft open sourced Chakra, their JS Engine, and there's to hope that it can compete with V8 to prevent the same for JavaScript.
I don't mind this answer in general, but liberals also have big issues with anti-vax and anti-gmo sentiments. I don't think they're immune to uniformed fear-mongering and sticking their fingers in their ears.

War saved my grandparents from Hitler, freed the slaves of the US South, ended the ghetto and brought rule of law to all of Europe, freed the US from England, ended the tyranny of the British monarchy in favor of Parliamentary rule, brought freedom of religion to the Netherlands, etc. Not all wars are fought in nobel causes, and even the nobelist war means the death of countless innocent individuals and scores of soldiers. But sometimes it is heroic.

Extremely short-sighted article.
maybe, but i don't it's likely. experienced hikers wont chug e's for fun if they're in a potentially dangerous situation. the undressing is due to hypothermia, as explained above. the missing tongue is most likely due to foxes or other predators, they eat the soft tissue first.

an avalanche+hypothermia is the most likely explanation.
The only UKIP MP wants to increase immigration from third world countries. I'm not sure that message gets through to the voters somehow. So like Trump, they surf on a wave on xenophobia, with little interest in actually following through with their promises.

It's worth pointing out that 75% of the subjects did yield at some point.

"25 percent of the sample consistently defied majority opinion, with the rest conforming on some trials."

Ie, when taking the test individually, everyone got the correct answer almost all the time. But when taking the test in a group, 75% gave the incorrect answer at some point.
Ok, I see. Yes, trivial for Yahoo but a hassle for DDG that now has to deal with adblocking scripts, explaining and so forth. Strange.
It took me a second to realize I could use the scroll wheel to zoom in but very nice and, as others have mentioned, surprisingly in-depth with a huge selection of lesser-known genres.

While I think dividing music in genres will always have an element of personal opinion in it, I will have to say that Ishkur's Guide To Electronic Music¹) disagrees with you quite a bit on some of the timelines and relationships in the Electronic Music/EDM corner.

And in the very least, his take on where Chemical Breaks/Big Beat came from²) seems a lot more plausible to me.

I think the point is that there are no defined left-wing foundational texts, that it arises with education across disciplines. Liberalism is a product of a variety of educations, not the creation of any one person or group.

I like Postbox, which is a commercial fork of Thunderbird. Seems to hit most of your needs (not sure about the conversation view as I always turn off threads) and has some of the keyboard shortcuts of GMail. Definitely lets you store emails on disk / offline. Alas version 4 has been less stable than version 3 was.
