> Then you look at them, determine their intent (to publish Bill's SSN) and punish them or not accordingly.

That sounds like a very pragmatic view of the legal system. I'm more idealistic so I'd rather say that you have to "prove" (rather than "determine") their intent before you can punish them. ;P

Look, I'm not saying you're wrong, but there absolutely are times when the "geeks" win. For example consider export control for cryptographic algorithms which was thoroughly ridiculed by "geeks" [1] and later scrapped IIRC.

There's only one measure of management productivity and that's the output of their teams. The go-to book on this subject is High Output Management by Andy Grove [1]. It is hands down the best book on management. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is transitioning into a role where you'll be leading people.

It is possible to learn German but it requires huge effort and dedication and not many people are capable of that.

I'm a little bit surprised: Relocating for a job in a completely different country (with a different language, culture etc.) also requires huge effort and dedication in my opinion. Why were you capable of doing this step but claim that learning German is so hard? Yes, it takes a little bit more time, but I can't see the orders of magnitude difference in required effort and dedication.
Challenged how? In legal systems like that of the USA, the regulators can make new laws. You can't indisputably break a law and then challenge the law itself unless it's unconstitutional, but the constitution has very little to say on the topic of financial regulation.
Not just management, but all parts of German society. It leads to a Merkel-ish leadership style with late, opportunistic decisions.

How does your HTTP parsing deal with Accept:? Does it populate $_PATCH and $_DELETE too? You are aware, that ERB is not the part of Rails and comes as standard library with Ruby? As does CGI module, so you get that "HTTP parsing" as well.

>this claim was garbage and was quietly retired after focus groups showed that nobody believed it

The public believing something is totally unrelated to how true it is. This kind of facile populist attitude is what people are criticising about the Leave campaign.
I backed the $119 edition, as well as many other Kickstarter campaigns over the last few years (along with almost every campaign that Stonemaier Games has done) and I actually mostly agree with your comment, except for a few specific points regarding this project in particular.
Kickstarter really needs to reign in on projects taking in a whole load of money, and then remaining completely silent as they pass deadline after deadline without shipping. I'm not sure how they can do this though, I hope they have people figuring it out!

For the cost of this project specifically, the cheapest version of Scythe on Kickstarter comes with quite a few extra things (extra game cards, better tokens, that kind of thing) that the retail version won't (maybe about $30 worth, although I haven't done the calculations). In addition, the project owner has been the best example of an owner keeping their backers up-to-date with production - check out the 39 updates on the Kickstarter! I think it's fair to say that I've learned a huge amount about the board game industry through his campaigns (although him supplying backers with the names of the ships that were carrying containers of the game from factory to distribution points brought me to new levels of shipping-anxiety), and I think that his price points have always been fair.

I have had some bad experiences with Kickstarter of course (Pebble's first Kickstarter was a farce even though they delivered eventually, Hello Sense haven't delivered on their promise), but Jamey's projects have never been one of them.

It also wasn't what I said.

Would you like to comment on the substance of my post, which was about how there was actually plenty of rational thinking and reasonable debate going on among the voters regardless of the official campaigns, and how the big problem now is how to set future policy since the result itself doesn't necessarily tell us very much about what the voters really wanted?
Interesting, our group has liked it a lot, even with some of its obvious flaws in balance.

I'm happy to make a few compromises to get a board game that make new players more interested in board games overall. After playing GoT, a few of my friends who have never played "adult" board games now regularly play games like Caracassone.

There is no way that you can't turn it off, I find it highly doubtful that they do this in hardware with some ASIC that reads the display buffer in the LCD and averages the color of the screen from there.

If you deliberately seek out news sources you know to be biased, and then compare them to other news sources, aren't you always going to conclude that those other sources are biased in the other direction?

You say the BBC has "outright disdain" for Corbyn but in my experience BBC News does manage to do a pretty good job of being unbiased. Are you sure that they aren't just reporting an unfiltered flow of stories and many of them happy to be pretty negative, thus they may seem to be biased?

He didn't say "wants to forbid", he said "is cancelling" and he is referring to the ERASMUS scheme from which Switzerland has been suspended:

Ironically, "the programme is named after the Dutch philosopher Desiderius Erasmus of Rotterdam, known as an opponent of dogmatism, who lived and worked in many places in Europe to expand his knowledge and gain new insights, and who left his fortune to the University of Basel in Switzerland.[1] At the same time, ERASMUS is a backronym meaning European Region Action Scheme for the Mobility of University Students.[1]"

How do you distinguish between a power play and a calm and reasoned "okay, this arrangement is over and therefore so are all of its provisions"? I don't doubt for a second that the EU's diplomats would resort to power plays and threats when they believe it's in their best interests, but dismantling the provisions of a treaty when that treaty no longer exists isn't a repercussion or a threat or bullying, it's just kind of how treaties work.
I know I'm not supposed to mention The War, but according to John Boyd, there was a similar phenomenon in the German army which aided the success of Blitzkrieg tactics:

'According to General Gunther Blumentritt, such a scheme presupposes a common outlook based upon “a body of professional officers who have received exactly the same training during the long years of peace and with the same tactical education, the same way of thinking, identical speech, hence a body of officers to whom all tactical conceptions were fully clear.”

Furthermore, a la General Blumentritt, it presupposes “an officers training institution which allows the subordinate a very great measure of freedom of action and freedom in the manner of executing orders and which primarily calls for independent daring, initiative and sense of responsibility.”'
It was a claim about the (distant) future, making it impossible to say whether it's true or not. The only thing that matters about such a claim is therefore plausibility, and it had none. They were right to retire it.
They actually used to be thinner, especially at shallow depths, but they had to add some extra sheathing because sharks were attracted. They'd go down to fix a break and find shark teeth embedded in it.
Look, it's a lack of goodwill. The student exchange could easily stay in place, it would be trivial to set up an agreement and if there are costs the EU would have to bear as a consequence, Switzerland could pay it. There aren't that many students.

But no, that's not what happens. The EU uses this as another bargaining chip, so it has the students and university faculty in its pockets. The strategy is obvious, and anyone who does not look through it is blind. No, don't sell Switzerland out. Autonomy is much more valuable than a couple of financial and contractual bribes.

The answer to all of your questions: computer programs are written for computers to understand, and computers aren't very smart. Mathematical papers are written for mathematicians to understand, and they tend to be a lot smarter than computers.

>The student exchange has a longstanding tradition and existed way before the EU shat in its diapers, and during a time where border controls were very strict. And now it thinks it can just cancel that?

Yes, because now the ability to control that program lies with the UE. That's how it works.

>The Swiss people voted for something, it would be unconstitutional and even illegal not to do it now.

Nobody is saying they shouldn't be allowed to do it, it's just that doing it violates an agreement Switzerland made with the EU and there are consequences for that. Consequences that were clear to people who bothered to learn about the issue before voting. This isn't some crazy contrived plot to exert control over the Swiss by the EU, it's just the Swiss having to face the consequences of their actions.

I'm am not saying that you are wrong, I'm not necessarily disagreeing with what you are saying.

However, I do want to point out something peculiar, an assumption underlying your opinion.

> "every single shred of independence and autonomy".

> "The issue is that the EU bullies and pushes everyone in Europe around at its whim"

Why is that a problem? Are the people who govern the EU (or any large government structure) not the same as you are? Do you think they are malicious and exploitive? The loss of your independence is just arbitrary lines. It has happened before, it will happen again. Pushing policy is what it means to govern, people in the opposition will always decry the decisions of those currently behind the wheel by definition.

Maybe there is something to be said about undemocratic properties in the current EU structure, I wouldn't know.
Possibly

I just checked Immoscout24 and though the average is higher it seems you still can find stuff around 1000EUR (of course there's pricier options if you want)
My motivations are mainly a frustration over the lack of useful discussion and the propensity of people to lock themselves into certain discussional tropes. I'm also massively conflicted over the kinds of people I want to br working amongst; whilst Academics tend towards the childish the business class tends towards the immoral.

I'm actually surprised that its as low as 9.7%, though of course that is direct funding and won't account for losses from businesses and who move (large banks bankroll the local Uni) or reduce spending.

What is notable in the funding is a decidedly different attitude to dealing with the problem, though this may simply be that researchers can't do much to affect funding wheras business iwners can.

As for echo chambers specifically - it can be heart-wrenching to be amongst several groups. The previous Scottish referendum caused significant damage to my family relationships, and the brexit is doing the same to my friends. There are few people willing to consider they don't and can't know all the facts.
I don't have any opinion or experience with this project specifically, I thought the stretch goals were a bit silly but then again what can you do with board game.
I was just surprised that the original comment I've replied was done voted because the OP also made no assertions (negative or otherwise) towards this project but asked a question about how the kickstarter board game scene operates in general.

It's good to hear that your experience with this project was a good one, I still do not like crowdfunding, I more or less see it as capitalism at it's worst which allows for opportunistic people to operate without the most important restriction of the free market - responsibility towards your investors.

And while I do see the appeal in crowdfunding and I do understand that it might be the only way to grinlight certain projects or products, it seems to be used too much these days, and in many cases by individuals or companies that would not have issues getting funding through traditional channels which means they either want to profit more of their product (kickstarter funding is considerably cheaper than any other source of funding bar government grants) or the actual risk of that project is too high for any sensible investor to invest in it in the first place.

Whats worse is that Kickstarter has very little incentive to combat this type of behaviour since it's their source of revenue, they get their cut regardless if the project succeeds or not, they do not inherit any (or very little) of the risk, and without actual legislation that will define rules for crowdfunding I don't see them enforcing any real restrictions by themselves unless we as consumers stop playing their game, and based on the fact that Kickstarter only seems to get more popular with every disaster I don't think that day would arrive any time soon.
You cannot compare these. You relocate once and after that it is done. Learning a language is on going process that has a lot of phases and you need to do it continuously every single day.

I don't want complain how learning German is hard. I only wanted to mention something that nobody says when they talk about Berling being tech hub.

You don't have this issue in Silicon Valley. Your working language is also your life language.
I was talking about a revote because I think that too much people voted thinking: yeah less foreigners sounds good and had no idea of the possible consequences if the swiss diplomats didn't work a miracle

As a swiss this saddens me but I think the EU is right to use the big guns because free movement is the foundation of the EU. If the swiss get an exception it would be hard to deny it to other states. "Unfair ! I also want to restrict the number of polish going in my country"

I think that the swiss government should focus on punishing salary-dumping because that's what most people are afraid of when they think of foreigners: he's going to do my job for less money. I heard it's a big problem in Tessin.

Firms should be able to hire anyone they want but they should give them a swiss salary, swiss or not and pay a big fine if they don't.

> "You will always feel alienated without the local language."

My experience throughout Europe is that people generally have enough knowledge of English that you can get through a 2 week holiday without knowing the language. But even during those two weeks you start to learn little things to make life a bit easier. I don't understand people who go to a foreign country and expect to live without learning the local language. It's hard work but not impossible and just seems arrogant.
So, ignore the will of the people until they change their minds?

There does seem to be a core of disappointed Remain voters actively trying to paint all Leave voters in the same negative light. My personal experience has been similar to yours, in that it's been surprisingly common to see this among the young, well-educated, normally reasonable people in university cities.

As with so many things about the referendum, the problem could just be that a very vocal but actually quite small minority is getting all the attention. I know for a fact which way quite a lot of my friends and family voted, and in private with calm discussion I'd say the majority on either side are willing to debate the issues and often do find a fair bit of common ground if they do. However, many of the Leavers won't say anything about it publicly now, for fear of sustained attacks or even losing friends over it. That does mean that if, say, you look at the Facebook news feeds, they are heavily slanted towards strident Remain advocacy and topics like ignoring the result in Parliament and staying in or throwing Boris in prison, but that is certainly not representative of the overall sentiment among people I know, just the ones who are willing to state their position and live with the consequences.
Years of studying what, though? Calculus, most of linear algebra, discrete math are all calculation based. Math papers are proof based. If you spend years studying proof based math (analysis, algebra, topology, and so on) then you'll be familiar enough with proof based math to understand it.

Just guessing:

Let's call you X.

My guess is that you X have a facebbok friend Y, and that Y has a facebook friend Z. So facebook can make a link between X and Z.

Option 1) Someone tagged X and Z (and perhaps Y) in a recent photo, so facebook decided to add Z to the suggestions of X.

Option 2) Facebooks was already showing Z randomly in the suggestions of X because they are linked. But since X doesn't know Z then X doesn't notice Z and just ignore Z. Now that X knows Z, then X recognizes the photograph in the suggestions.
