It would not surprise me if Apple built in OS + FS integration into APFS. That's has always been Apple's thing - control.
"...I'm not sure if you are trying to imply that Stallman brought us the Internet..."

No. The opposite. I'm trying to draw attention to the fact that besides free open source software, improvements in the network allow companies like Facebook to grow as big as they are.

Before clang, FreeBSD used gcc. I'm actually not a GNU/Linux user; I wish BSD did not have to use gcc, but for as long as I've been a user, release engineering has always used gcc. I would personally prefer to use something like pcc as opposed to clang.

Today, lots of companies use GNU software, when they could just as easily use BSD. And many BSD users still need gcc to compile their OS. Not how I expected things to turn out but attacking Stallman makes little sense at this point.

Instead, maybe we should be thanking him.

Companies like Facebook offer very little while taking all our personal information for their commercial use, while open source projects like BSD and GNU continue to offer a great deal, without requiring so much as an account or password, much less tracking our every move.
Infamously MS Windows bindings for emacs are are prefaced "w32-" instead of the standard "win32-" because RMS decreed "Windows is not a 'winning' platform."

I'm not an expert on this topic, but I'm fairly sure that if you traded gold, or Monopoly money, or anything not fiat currency, for goods & services, you would still be taxed. The right to tax does not arise out of the use of fiat currency.
I have the books for Harlequin Dylan, but the language never got traction.

It was basically an infix lisp with focus on hygiene (because it was basically a Lisp 1), and the possibility of sealing modules (making it impossible to alter / inherit from them ).

This IIRC; it's a long time ago...
Wow. Since when is every regulation supposed to pay for itself? Do police? SWAT?

I highly suggest reading Steve Randy Waldmann's analysis of the Baltimore riots and altruistic punishment. He is an actual economist, whereas this thread is as if he came in here and was telling you your code sucked.

For those curious, his blog is called interfluidity.

It takes ten years to train people of that skill. Not having access to a capable glassblower as a chemical researcher is an infrastructure problem that cannot be solved with any amount of money. You need a master glassblower to train the next generation, and you need capable apprentices, and it still takes ten years.

Neoliberals, note that fact.
Picking the good strawberries and repackaging not only should be allowed, it should be mandatory. How are we gone so far away from (agricultural) reality that such a simple and necessary task is /forbidden/ ?

> He insists on the term, but he doesn't mean something very specific when he says "free". Unlike what most of his opponents seem to believe, he does not mean "copyleft only" when he says "free". He means the exact same thing as "open source", just like "global warming" means the same thing as "climate change". Same thing, different political slant.

That's not remotely true. When RMS says "free", he means "copyleft". Open Source means merely that interested parties can look at the source but does not imply rights to alter and redistribute. It derives from precedents like the Open Software Foundation (see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Software_Foundation) which was open-as-in-specified, certainly not open-as-in-GPL.

It's 3 wolves and a sheep voting on what's for lunch. If they had a referendum that only allowed landowners to vote, guess whether they'd choose policies that increased or decreased property values? Same if you ask citizens if they should allow non-citizens to live among them. Why not ask the non-citizens too and get a more fair perspective?

This is not just in NYC...but also Atlanta. I only buy from western grocery stories if I absolutely need something. Maybe some western vegetables like lettuce I will get from Publix. But fruits, vegetables and meat are cheaper at the Korean, Chinese and Mexican grocery stores. I'm not talking about the small mom and pop stores, but giant chains.

Not only are they cheaper but they have more variety. If you go to an American grocery store...the fresh fruits and vegetable and meat selection is utterly pathetic. The price can be double. And people wonder why Americans don't eat enough fruits and vegetables

In Atlanta there are major streets like Buford highway, Pleasant Hill that have several large grocery stores (size of Walmart) within a few blocks of each other ,and no western grocery stores nearby because they can't compete. You may find an Aldi, or Walmart...but not Publix or Kroger. The sale prices at American grocery stores don't even touch the regular daily prices of the ethnic markets.

You walk into an American grocery store and you have a whole aisle dedicated to cereal, a whole aisle for potato chips, a whole aisle of soda...the fresh fruits, vegetables and meat are barely 10% of the square footage. While the ethnic grocery stories it's more like 25%...and those stores are larger. Meats of any cut, filets of fish, whole fish, fish head, live fish, live crab and lobster, pigs feet, ox tail...fish of many types...American stores, you'll have your salmon filet and shrimp.

It's true the quality can be hit or miss. I never frequent the Korean stores (hmart, assi mart) anymore unless I know I will eat it within two days. I go there once every few months. I frequent the Chinese and Mexican ones. Too many bad experiences at the Korean ones. When I shop at the Korean ones I open up their meats in the store and smell it...there's been a few times when I get home and open the package, the meat is rotten.

This is not to say I don't have bad experiences at the American markets. I have...milk that expires the next day (I wasn't attentive to the date, just picked the one that was furthest out...which happened to be tomrrow), the good ol rotten strawberry in the middle...but it happens less.

American grocery stores don't offer the same price or quantity because Americans don't demand it. They would rather want their aisle of frozen dinners and breakfast cereals.
Ah ok, so you're starting from the assumption that the site has already been owned and the attacker has the hashed passwords. In which case yes, it does make it easier.
it is a $500+ trillion dollar industry, and a lot of money is being lost in pricing errors

If I had a magical algorithm that was so much better than what was out there, I'd keep it to myself for about a year or two. If I could capture about 0.2% of the value of that industry, I'd increase my net worth to about 1 trillion dollars. Surely it couldn't be that hard to squeeze 0.2% of inefficiency out of options?

IOW, "if you're so smart, why aren't you rich?"

I never could understand why people want to share these sorts of breakthroughs with the world, rather than use them to become wealthy beyond anyone's wildest dreams.
I truly wonder whether the population of London will ever forgive Johnson for his part in the referendum.

It may will prove significant in elections and referendums to come.
"Send frist version to client" is in one of the images as well
Which is only a good thing, because it means the city as a whole is attracting rich tourists to spend tons of money rather than renters who spend less.

And the best part is that if the tourism ever declines, the housing is still fine for renting again.

If things get bad in the UK the EU wouldn't really want the UK back as such. They may however eventually permit the UK to rejoin. Once the UK has jumped through all of the hoops that new EU applicants have to jump through of course. The EU may even come up with a few new hoops just for the UK, to hold it to a higher standard than a genuine new applicant.
You seem confused about the definition of copyleft.

When something licensed to me under, say, the BSD 2-clause license, I have the ability to look at the source, to alter it, and to redistribute it (with or without modification). It is not copyleft, because it does not require that derived works be released under a comparable license.
Apparently some do not like this idea that Europe's fate will be better with brexit. True I didn't see it in the papers, but it seems very natural to me dit many reasons. First Europe should a choice. For many European nations it looks like a process decided above them. It is a very good news that one country tries the way out, it shows that the exit for is open.

Also Europe is this kind of thing that has a lot of hidden benefits, which you'll feel only when you leave. Britain will show this.

On the same line, Europe has been the scapegoat of all rightist populist speech since 15 years. In two years Britain will be out of Europe and all her problems will be worse, showing clearly that Europe was not the cause, but probably the hidden mitigator.

It's also like hard things to do in code, it does not work if it is one way only. I would never say that a database system works if it can only add tables and never delete them. Adding countries to Europe has been proven to work, the reverse operation had to be tried, and I'm happy that Britain take the task to open the way.

FWIW, the DTEK app on the Blackberry Priv tracks permissions usages. My FB app has never accessed the microphone, but it does track my location every 7 minutes. Still creepy.
One important benefit of using an ORM is not being locked in with a particular DB server tech. Good luck migrating large app not using ORM, from, say, MySQL to Postgres if, for example, Postgres replication is something you are all of sudden interested in.

To me, it seems obvious that even if limited lifespans are good, aging is still bad, and the best route would be to cure aging and then euthanize older people Brave New World-style. I mean, which option sounds better: thirty years of life during which you get sicker and sicker, followed by a slow, painful death; or thirty years of healthy, active life, followed by an instant and painless death? I know which one I'd choose.

>I'll never see a single work made within my lifetime make it the public domain.

Plenty of work makes it to the public domain; it just need to be noted as such by the creator, and creators do do that from time to time.

On Mickey Mouse specifically, I don't really have a problem with that one. Mickey Mouse isn't something created by someone who is riding on their past successes and whose descendants are riding on the coattails of. It's an actively developed and organised bit of intellectual property, which is responsible for literally thousands of jobs. They are actively working their IP, rather than merely sitting back and demanding a cut if other people want to work it. As such, I think protection for that is reasonable, as it is a going business concern.

I have far more problem with IP not making it to public domain if it's not actively worked. An example from Australia: there was an iconic song "Land Down Under" in the 80s, in which a 12-note melody was in the bridge. That melody was "Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree", a very recognisable Australiana kids/folk tune. The original owners didn't pursue damages, but nearly 20 years after the pop song made it, a business group bought the rights to Kookaburra and sued the creators of the pop song. This business group didn't 'value add' to the IP - they didn't actively work it. The case turned out with a relatively sensible ending - the judge gave some minor royalties to the rights holders because while the melody was clearly in use (it was the point of using that melody, after all), it wasn't the main theme of the song.

So I think copyright should be a bit more complex - if you're actually actively working the IP to a reasonable (yes, 'define reasonable...') amount, you should be able to extend it. Otherwise, expiry as it used to be. Some protection would need to be figured out to prevent trivial token 'working', of course.

That is easy to say... but there are still chronic pain cases where people do not even have a diagnosis of what is wrong. There are blood disorders for which the recommended treatment is still bleeding the patient. Chemotherapy is basically poisoning people and hoping they survive but the cancer does not. All of these things will hopefully one day seem barbaric and we will have better answers. But we are absolutely not on the verge of having all the answers.

>this article reveals that the two most popular destinations for UK families leaving are the USA and Australia - both countries with strict visa requirements and no automatic freedom of movement.

On a purely selfish level, speaking as an Australian/UK dual citizen who has an Australian wife who cannot live permanently with me in the UK without submitting to everything short of a rubber glove examination from UK immigration and paying substantial fees for the pleasure, I do hope this changes once the UK leaves the EU. Australia, NZ, Canada and the UK have a shared history, the same language, the same head of state, and similar levels of economic development so it would be nice if there were fewer barriers to moving between these countries.

Australia and NZ have freedom of movement and it would be great if more of the old empire could join us. Pretty sure plenty of brits would love to go live in Australia etc for a while without a bunch of paperwork.
In my experience, it's been the source of some serendipitous discoveries. On microfilm or microfiche, you might catch a glimpse of something really interesting on the nearby pages, which sends you down a completely different track. Just like when you go to a library for one book, then discover two or three really relevant ones on the adjacent shelves.

You don't always get that same experience from some machine learning 'Related Books' algorithm.

> Makes it funny they're so worried about bringing CIA in.

Except for the fact that the USG actually buys into the concept of NOBUS, as evidenced not only in the classification system - but also foreign policy (the proliferation of AA and AT weapons comes to mind). So the USG's use of TOR provides me with zero confidence that they wouldn't actively weaken it. That said, I agree on the issue of trust - secure software shouldn't need any. They need to decide between two very distinct paths: accept the insecurity and try to control it socially (no CIA guys), or mathematically demonstrate infallibility. Because one is so hard, and the inevitable failure of the other can be ignored for now - I'm guessing that we'll see no push for formal verification :)

Switzerland is a good place to do business in Europe in part because it has access to the internal market.

Access to that common market has, to this point, required a commitment to the Four Freedoms, free movement of goods, services, people, and capital.

Are you suggesting the UK will be able to negotiate access to the common market without acceding to those four freedoms - something which has never happened before and considering the current EU stance of "hurry up and gtfo" seems quite unlikely.

Or are you suggesting the UK will leave Europe, but still allow free movement of people in order to retain access to the common market? Immigration control was given as the second most important factor by those who voted leave, that would be quite some turn-around.

Or, finally, I guess you could be suggesting that Britain will be a good place to do business in Europe without being a part of the common market.
I'm taking a bit of creative license with the term "modular". CTEs and views can help with this, and are closer to true modules.

I like to encapsulate inside of stored procedures, and write my code in such a way that it reads almost like a a procedural language. Heavy use of indentation, subqueries, and temp tables lets you carry results through the proc. I like to hang conditions off of joins, so related logic is in the same place.
Because they are not citizens - are you asking seriously or was that a tongue-in-cheek question?
Britain has never really considered itself part of Europe, they've historically taken amusement in the irony of how they refer to "Europe" and "the continent" to refer to not the UK, as though they're not part of it. They don't learn the languages of Europe more than what's needed for a vacation, at best. They didn't join the EEC, which certainly looked a lot like they wanted to use their pound sterling more than to help the community. And now of course Brexit, which makes no sense at all from a rational perspective.

The argument of doing what's best for everyone is just not something that resonates in their politics, much in the same way that's it's not a mainstream value in the USA either. Rather it's about "what's in it for me". Those are not the values of the majority in continental Europe thankfully, asking the question of what's best for everyone resonates stronger.
No pun intended?

I'm not talking about tax. I'm referring to rayiner's initial point, which is that "right" and "wrong" have nothing to do with it. Businesses such as banks that intermediate financial transactions with state currency are subject to those states' regulations. It's not "wrong" to not enforce money laundering controls, but it is illegal, because you operate within US jurisdiction under a US charter trading US currency. If you don't want to follow the laws, go trade something else somewhere else. (To this point, the Russians and Chinese have been making a point for years of getting away from the dollar, specifically to get out from under the America's thumb.)

As an Australian who has lived in the US and the EU I'd agree some sort of deal would be a really good idea.

However, actually, the US causes problems because the other Anglo-Saxon countries have much more generous welfare systems and Universal Health Care.

It would be easier between NZ, CA, AU & the UK. However, something could be worked out with the US by limiting access to welfare while allowing for work.
An important point made in longevity research like SENS (cf., http://www.sens.org/ ) is that it should also improve youthful characteristics. This is important, because we shouldn't want to live into our 200's and be as though we're in our 80's (feeble, weak, etc.). True longevity means longevity of youthful biology, including all the attendant benefits that come with youth. In other words, we should seek to reach a point where we reach full maturity (mid 20's or so given some variation) but do not begin deteriorating.
