Could I ask why HN crowd supports rent control? It seems we are going against our own interests. 90% of flats are not on market, that makes remaining 10% very expensive.
Some deep thoughts on what I suspect will be a fairly big issue for medical and insurance databases, especially if polygamy is ever legally recognised. Though if it's medical insurance, you probably can't drop the gender and sex markers, you need some indication that a transwoman who was assigned male at birth doesn't need a pap smear.

I read Casanova's memoirs in English translation, and the translation to my native language (the original is in French). I cannot recommend it enough. If you are interested, do NOT take an abridged publication (of which there are many), but the complete one: https://www.amazon.com/History-My-Life-Vols-1-2/dp/080185662... (the link is to vols 1-2 of 12).

It's about 3,000 pages written in a great style - very modern and fast paced. Not only Casanova was far from (only) a womanizer that the popular culture made of him, he was a man so ahead of it's time, that his memoirs are so full of wisdom that he would be an enlightened elite even today. He was a businessman, philosopher, con-man, adventurist, spy, politician, and, yes, a womanizer. But, above all this, a man with a very good reflection and understanding of the world, which we can enjoy reading his memoirs.
If you work with .NET ,best place to learn all common scenarios like hang,crash,high memory are Debugging Demos https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/tess/2008/02/04/net-debuggi...

Many troubleshooting steps in that blog also covers DebugDiag .DebugDiag is an amazing tool which can help you collect dumps automatically for crash,high memory,IIS slow response etc.

Another tool which can help you profile your applications easily is PerfView
https://channel9.msdn.com/Series/PerfView-Tutorial .

Perfview is built on the (Windows Event tracing) ETW infrastructure windows have .You can think of it as Lttng or perf_events linux equivalent but built into everything windows have. I think process monitor is also built on ETW. After debugging ( which is not required for lot of scenarios) the most powerfull thing in troubleshooting any issues in Windows is ETW traces IMHO.So understanding and analyzing ETW will help you troubleshoot a lot of issues.

https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/ntdebugging/2009/08/27/part...

XPERF is built to consume ETW traces https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/ntdebugging/tag/XPERF/
https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/askpfeplat/2013/03/22/tr...

Also Advanced Windows debugging[1] and Advanced .NET debugging[2] to be very good for learning debugging in windows land.

Documentation. Not for users, for developers.

I cannot count the number of time I've found a bug simple enough that I know the fix is easy but got lost in the mire of a poorly-documented C/C++ (but I repeat myself...) codebase before deciding it's not worth my time.

Higher level languages are on the whole more approachable even with inadequate documentation, as if there's any other type, and even if I've never met the language before.
Unfortunately the study, even at 5 years, doesn't seem long enough, in my mind, to gauge if people under it would "just move to Albuquerque where the cost of living is cheap" (or perhaps UBI could/should be adjusted based on location dunno...)

On a "normal" computer, it's impossible with the available resources. I think Bruce Schneier illustrates it very well on his blog: https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2009/09/the_doghouse_...

If you were in possession of an ideal computer, that floats in space and uses only the minimum energy required by physics to distinguish two states, and you were able to convert all the mass in our solar system directly into energy (which you probably wouldn't want to do, for obvious reasons) and feed that energy into the ideal computer, then you would be able to count (no decryption attempts here, just counting) all the way up to 2^231.

Trying to brute-force 256-bit keys is a very unrewarding activity indeed. If Yadav thinks he would be able to do it in "hundreds of years" rather than "long after all the stars have died" he must have a computer hidden somewhere that would run Crysis very smoothly even with all the settings on maximum.

As a citizen you have rights. Your printing press doesn't. Nevertheless, preventing a printing press from printing hinders your rights. Same with a corporation and it's owners.

Nevertheless, you are correct that corporations and self-organizing groups have a large amount of power to manipulate citizens and voters. The blogger Mencius Moldbug wrote about this back in 2009 (https://unqualified-reservations.blogspot.in/2009/01/gentle-...) - I've been rereading his blog on kindle whenever I have an 18 hour flight and it's quite prescient. (Just longwinded, why I reserve it for flights.)

There is also significant evidence that FB and Twitter are using this power.

In much the same way, Gawker's power was unchecked and unbalanced until Thiel and Hogan stepped in.

I don't know what the solution is or what solutions would be morally acceptable, but there definitely is a problem. The best I can come up with is reducing democracy so as to make manipulating the public a less valuable proposition.

No way; that would be a piece of cake. The only reason it's not happening now is that zoning law forbids it. If that were changed, homeowners would be falling over themselves to sell their land to apartment developers; it would be a giant windfall for them. In fact, you'd have to charge a steep development fee to reduce that windfall to something modest in order to ensure that only 6% volunteer to do it.

I repaired a few TVs back in the 80s with my father. He worked as an electrical technician so he'd had all the equipment so when one of our TVs died, he'd open it up, find the fault, and fix it. I had smaller hands so I'd be the one who would actually use the multimeter to check the voltage drop across various components. By the time the 90s rolled around there were a lot more custom chips so we haven't done it since then.
This reminds me of a topic from Neil Postman's excellent "Amusing Ourselves to Death". To paraphrase: we're probably worrying too much about media censorship, and not enough about the mindless content media does provide that is filling up our time and dumbing down public discourse.

"""
...in the Age of television, our information environment is completely different from what it was in 1783.; that we have less to fear from government restraints than from television glut; that, in fact, we have no way of protecting ourselves from information disseminated by corporate America; and that, therefore, the battles for liberty must be fought on different terrains from where they once were.

For example, I would venture the opinion that the traditional civil libertarian opposition to the banning of books from school libraries and from school curricula is now largely irrelevant. Such acts of censorship are annoying, of course, and must be opposed. But they are trivial. Even worse, they are distracting, in that they divert civil libertarians from confronting those questions that have to do with the claims of new technologies. To put it plainly, a student's freedom to read is not seriously injured by someone's banning a book on Long Island or in Anaheim or anyplace else. But as Gerbner suggests, television clearly does impair the student's freedom to read, and it does so with innocent hands, so to speak. Television does not ban books, it simply displaces them.

The fight against censorship is a nineteenth-century issue which was largely won in the twentieth. What we are confronted with now is the problem posed by the economic and symbolic structure of television. Those who run television do not limit our access to information but in fact widen it. Our Ministry of Culture is Huxleyan, not Orwellian. It does everything possible to encourage us to watch continuously. But what we watch is a medium which presents information in a form that renders it simplistic, nonsubstantive, nonhistorical and noncontextual: that is to say information packaged as entertainment. In America, we are never denied the opportunity to amuse ourselves.

Tyrants of all varieties have always known about the value of providing the masses with amusements as a means of pacifying discontent. But most of them could not have even hoped for a situation in which the masses would ignore that which does not amuse. That is why tyrants have always relied, and still do, on censorship. Censorship, after all, is the tribute tyrants pay to the assumption that a public knows the difference between serious discourse and entertainment-and cares. How delighted would be all the kings, czars and fuhrers of the past and commissars of the present to know that censorship is not a necessity when all political discourse takes the form of a jest.

>Recent research has shown that it is other mental illnesses, like anxiety disorders, problems with impulse control and addiction, that are actually more strongly linked to suicide attempts.

It's often said that the presence of firearms in the house greatly increases the chances of suicide since it's this spike in despair, hopelessness, and entrapment that causes the overwhelmingly strong compulsion to end things. But if you can ride out this wave, then things revert to the mean.

Sounds like you are up against the echo chamber of the soft sciences. Logic and standards of proof are out the window. There is no point in arguing against such points of view, since who is right is predefined and the result of pseudoacademic popularity contests - not science.

Soft sciences these days are for people that want to appear as though educated, but don't want to be burdened by evidence, proofs etc. It is time to clear the fog on that matter.

Freeciv: BREXIT scenario – UK borders closed
I know of some of those sites that randomise the location of keys and then hide the key labels on mousedown, I assume to try and avert that issue.

(Curious as to whether it would actually work though.)
I've added a Brexit scenario to Freeciv-web. Play as David Cameron in this "United Kingdom withdrawal from the European Union" scenario. The borders between the United Kingdom and the EU continent has been closed. Will Great Britain thrive without any contact with the EU?
To play the Brexit scenario, click on the "Scenarios" button on the main page, and select the Brexit scenario. Good luck!
This is from 2014. I'd forgotten the Cobra Effect but remembered the BG tweet. :)
Wow, seems something's a bit "out of whack" or "outdated" when a landlord wakes up and realizes "wait, I could charge 10x the rent!" :) I assume he could't just evict the tenant because of some kind of tenancy laws or something?
Problem of course is that muslim countries, and plenty of muslims, are extremely intolerant of things like freedom of religion, opinion, and are in favor of things like killing gays and the like ?

Tolerating intolerant ideologies is not good, it is not social, it does not "fight racism". It it quite the opposite of that.
Hmm yes my first question was "does the rent contract stipulate he can raise rents? or is it month to month so he can change it whenever he wants"? (assuming its a male landlord, sorry ladies)

Going from no bear problem to "a rate of up to ten per day" in a few weeks is not normal. Unless the town had been carefully securing their garbage for years and suddenly, unilaterally stopped, there is some outside factor driving bears into town.

> Not sitting on benches near piles of food is very practical.

See above. They were roaming all over the town.

I'm sorry, your words were: "That's basically all you need to know. An large old mammal tied to a smaller mammal = bear lunch." You're saying that people shouldn't take any animal out on a leash, ever. That's not reasonable.

You're also ignoring the fact that neither the cat nor its owner were attacked. The first victim, as it happens, was walking a dog, which the bear ignored.

Please help me in my struggle with AsusTEK by signing this petition
This is a very common scenario: Manufacturer creates a tablet, releases it in the market, but then shies away from providing support or even fixing any issues by providing an OTA update.

I'm suffering from one such issue (the last lollipop OTA upgrade in my Asus Fonepad ME175CG broke after which tablet drains the entire battery in just a couple of hours). Its not just me, but everyone who have bought this tablet and made the OTA upgrade is suffering from the same fate:

http://www.asus.com/zentalk/in/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=59750

The most troublesome aspect of this is that the OEM stopped giving new updates just after this last buggy OTA update.

Of course, like most of you people, I may have to forget about it and keep saying, "OEMs can do whatever they want", but that isn't going to stop me from trying. Call me a socialist or SJW, but the least I want to do is make sure that the OEMs think twice before giving out a half-baked OTA update that breaks an existing working device. And I believe that it can happen if enough people will sign this petition:

What's "extremist"? Dabiq?[1] Stormfront? Donald Trump? The National Rifle Association? Fox News?

It's worth reading Dabiq to hear what ISIS has to say. Know your enemy. They're quite clear about wanting to kill everyone who doesn't support their strict interpretation of Islam. (ISIS cannot have allies; they consider that religiously prohibited.) The latest issue also includes a long article about why the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt has abandoned strict Islam and is now an enemy. None of this is likely to recruit anybody who isn't already a fanatic of some kind. Unfortunately, there are those in search of something to be fanatical about. Even if they can turn only 0.004% of the population into fighters for their cause (that's roughly their recruiting success rate in the Western world), that's a success for them.

Dabiq mentions their 10 videos for this month, and searches for them turn up articles about them, but not playable versions of the videos. Even the one linked to "archive.org" isn't coming up. Unclear if this is censorship.

Yup. Rent control laws in SF don't allow that. That's the flip side of rent control: you have people paying a lot less than market price. Or another way to look at it, people moving into the city are subsidizing costs for existing tenants resulting in higher market prices--which depending on your perspective, could be seen as unfair to new tenants or fair for old tenants.
That doesn't make sense - where did the user copy the email/password from, in order to paste it in twice?
