I've talked to plenty of perfectly nice individuals on Omegle in text mode. But it's not like people want to talk about deep topics right of the bat or at all. Perverts aren't to blame for that not happening. Given random people most won't even know as much as you do about their country's situation and whatnot. A 1 to 1 chat with a stranger is a really bad format for that kind of conversations too.

What you can do is, say, talk to a Syrian refugee about cats or pizza.
The problem with the TTIP (and similar deals) is that existing law is changed, and the previous rules that governments are able to govern their state are overruled. The court systems and existing law are overruled.
This is no market solution (the strongest wins), this is extortion and the loss of the rule of law.
We've already released a PaaS built ontop of Kubernetes at Red Hat, with the upstream named OpenShift Origin and the supported version named OpenShift Container Platform (https://www.openshift.com/container-platform/).

Our developers contribute a ton of work to the Kubernetes project, and pretty much everything that works on Kubernetes will also work on OpenShift. We do have some security settings by default that are more restrictive (like no containers running as root) but that can be easily modified to be more permissive.
GTK+ is dreadful on Windows. I'd stay away.

Personally I implement the UI in as thin a layer as can be architected and reimplement for every platform. It's the best way, and probably cheaper for most apps than trying to force some lowest common denominator library to express what you want in high fidelity.
This is an argument for keyword arguments (often simulated in JavaScript by taking an object as a single argument, which would work great here: being both faster and frankly somewhat more logical as it is a single step rather than a chain of modifications), and I would argue doesn't really "challenge the status quo" other than to make the argument yet again that named arguments are pretty cool (even though I do tend to use [@"Get on the road" stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"road" withString:@"bus" as an example of how ludicrously verbose Objective-C can feel ;P).
The thing is, you can reach prison for even a $5 voluntary debt if you keep escalating hard enough. So it's not meaningfully bad that X thing could theoretically escalate to prison, because everything can, even a $5 debt. The end impression once you take in the whole situation is not "the government is going too far with this law", it's "the government is going as far as it would with a $5 voluntary debt, meh".

We've tried to use Docker a couple of times, but it was always much more trouble than it was worth. It was always some edge case that caused it to not work as expected one developer machine or another.

After about 2 years of giving it another shot on and off, we just gave up. And it's not like we were doing something crazy, just a typical documented "run this rails app" type thing. I would definitely not use this in production for anything based on my experience.

Definitely take a look onto Ansible[1]. We are using it on daily basis and to deploy and provision servers.

Deployment from CI was just 4 lines into CI config (fetch repo, set-up keys, deploy in the very same way as we do)

edit: we are using quite widely. Wanna create new servers in AWS - just run a playbook. Wanna setup new database cluster - just run a playbook. So easy

In fluids, we sometimes get discrete but dynamic structures. Those structures would not be stable without a certain base energy. That could explain it. For example, suppose an electron is a vortex.

I can't come up with a good definition for "open site", but open protocols come to my mind. Things like NNTP, SMTP, XMPP and building the services on top of those.

It might be that I'm required to login to a specific site in order to access my email account that is hosted there, but since everything is based on the "open" SMTP protocol, I'm not dependent on that specific site if I want to exchange messages with my friends.
Not being an expert in physics there are a few base concepts you should take under account before asking this question.

a) What gravity really is - you need to ask this question before you can really move forward and start asking other questions (like questions you asked). And what the gravity really is? Well, this is what nowadays physics is trying to find out - we do not yet know. This is connected a bit with an attempt to come up with "theory of everything" - a supreme set of laws that connect everythig with everything else (i.e. electromagnetism with gravity) - such theory does not exist (yet?) and therefore phenomenons like gravity, or light for that matter, are not yet bound by definite set of theorems (of course we all heard about black holes that can lock light within event horizon).

b) What energy is - again a concept of energy is present in physics and I'm sure you was learning about it in your primary school physics course; in short energy is a way to represent a potential to do work - right? In such way we already know what kind of energy can you harness gravity to store a potential to do work for you - i.e. you can bring huge mass somewhere high enough so you can drop it, when object hits the ground you can transform that original work you have done into different kinds of energy - i.e. energy of impact (maybe to destroy an object, or to have another object lifted?) or heat (which is actually energy loss);
I can imagine when you say "energy" you really think "electricity" and as such I have not heard people being able to use a space attribute which (according to my current knowledge) gravity is to transform potential energy you can store with it to electricity.

So - is your question possible to answer? In my humble opinion, with current state of knowledge, not to your satisfaction.
The most interesting alternative to the Planet Nine hypothesis (and to my mind a more attractive one) is that there is a self-organizing dynamical process that applies to large ensembles of bodies in highly eccentric orbits that causes their argument of perihelion to become correlated.

There is a great SETI talk by the astronomer Ann-Marie Madigan that explains the idea, it should be easy to follow if you've ever taken a mechanics course: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YW0Zb5gY0HA
The current system of journal publication has odd incentives -- paying to be published and doing peer review for free -- and should be revised in some way. Unfortunately though the journals provide the metric by which basically all researchers are judged.

I agree that the world would be a better place if research were freely available, but the way Sci-Hub is doing this does not help the process, unless it stresses the system so bad financially that it breaks and is replaced by something else.

I have wondered about the possibility of all articles being hosted freely on sites like arxiv.org with some kind of web of trust rating system: anyone could vote up an article but people in specific fields could choose to view the aggregate rating of respected researchers in their field.

In any case, until a better rating system for researchers emerges, we can't get rid of the journal publishers.
For ages now, I've been telling people that the best best code, produced by the most experienced people, tends to look like novice code that happens to work --- no unnecessary abstractions, limited anticipated extensibility points, encapsulation only where it makes sense.

In other words, the best code is the simplest code that works. It usually tends to be very flexible and extensible anyway, because there is so little of it that understanding it all and modifying it becomes easy. The most experienced programmers are the ones who can assess a problem and write code to capture its essence, and not waste time doing that which isn't necessary.

I've observed that there is a "spectrum of complexity" with two very distinct "styles" or "cultures" of software at either end; at one end, there is the side which heavily values simplicity and pragmatic design. Examples of these include most of the early UNIXes, as well as later developments like the BSD userland. The code is short, straightforward, and humble, aptly described by "novice code that happens to work".

At the other end, there's the culture and style of Enterprise Java and C#, where solving the simplest of problems turns into a huge "architected" application/framework/etc. with dozens of classes, design patterns, and liberal amounts of other bureaucratic indirection. The methodology also tends to be highly process-driven and rigid. I don't think it's a coincidence that the latter is heavily premised on and values "best practices" more than anything else.

Here's another one of the "rebellion" articles against "best practices": ttp://www.satisfice.com/blog/archives/27
A lot of US food is eaten in Europe and nobody has a problem with more or less low quality junk food. Also Europe has already the cheap low quality US movies and TV series. Only Korea is so far immune against that.

The problem is only the poisonous US food and pesticides that are forbidden in Europe and the fundamental difference between the European precautionary_principle and the US proactionary principle.

The conclusion may be somewhat of a logical fallacy; distribution will be local to cheap materials and depend heavily on tax codes. Shipping the end product isn't a huge cost.

A main point in his argument was that they couldn't engineer robotics as well as the US due to poor education. I very sincerely doubt this. With the size of the Chinese population, we can afford to look at their top engineers and compare them to ours. Averages mean very little in this case.
That's how I feel about quantum physics. Just fuzzy waves interacting randomly with each other, exchanging some quantities and reshaping, sharpening or blurring each other.

The fact that some of the energy and momentum exchange are governed by similar rules as two billiard balls bouncing from each other is pure coincidence (or just effect of the fact that round macroscopic objects behave like very sharp quantum waves).
the assumption is that the EU-Canada agreement puts more restrictions on products so that everything which is allowed on the second path goes through all of it, but the opposite is not true.

(AFAIK this isn't generally true outside of agro/food but that is a large part of potential US->EU exports being erased while "Italian shoes" and "french wine" still get through in the other direction)
It's an interesting data point for sure, but I'd argue the prerequisites you listed make the experiment quite different.
Fair. I need to spend a few weeks with coq before I really form an opinion of how these things could be improved.

Not really. You can just be sure one side is lying and, if one is, both can be. When that happens, the mainstream narratives get discredited and marginal ones gain traction.
I'm glad I asked this because your answer suggests this is the main problem with cross-platform UIs.

What do you think is the right thing to do? To have a common denominator kind of approach where a control works on all platforms but with fewer features, or to reimplement the control?

Do you have an example handy of a control/idiom that caused this problem?

It sounds like reimplementing (emulation) is a good thing.
Remember that algorithms, data structure design and API experience are also crucial parts of coding. These are not necessarily things that will be learned by iterative hacking.

Scientific data sets can be huge, and there are all kinds of ways to write code that doesn’t scale well.

If the scientific code is trying to display graphics, then you really have to know all the tricks for the APIs you are using, how to minimize updates, how to arrange data in a way that gives quick access to a subset of objects in a rectangle, etc.
>The only thing Facebook has done that the author seems to object to is to be extraordinarily, unprecedentedly successful.

You just described an open web and then somehow attributed all of that to Facebook. If Facebook were to replace the Internet like Zuckerberg would love to do then none of the things you described would still be possible.

Sir Tim and I agree with you on that.
What are standard Google account hassles? The k8s getting started guide is one of the single best cloud setup guides I've ever read. You've deployed your app, and can easily leverage the concepts listed their to deploy more complex apps.

I work at MindGeek, depending on the time of the year it would be fair to say we rank within the top 25 bandwidth users in the world.

Security company providing all the data to the NSA?

Maybe it is just my broad assumptions but I would hope that the major big 10 that come to mind such as Google, Amazon, Microsoft, etc would be able to rebuild their production regions in hours.
I think the US has a slightly different problem, and it's much scarier than an external opponent alone.

> existing law is changed

Like every law that's ever been passed has done?

> previous rules that governments are
> able to govern their state are overruled

Like every international agreement that's ever been signed? All of whom give up some state sovereignty.

> Court systems and existing law are overruled.

I wouldn't say "overruled", at this point the state has agreed to cede certain matters to an international tribunal as part of the trade agreement.

So you could say "overruled", you could also say "the parties involved voluntarily decided to change the process". Which doesn't sound that scary, does it?

> This is no market solution (the strongest wins)

If the strongest was really winning to the detriment of everyone else they could just stop participating in the trade agreement.

> This is extortion and the loss of the rule of law.

So the rule of law can only exist on the national level, and can't be enforced by an international body that nation-states have agreed to enact? To me that sounds very much like how courts are enacted by states, which most people consider part of the rule of law.

Saying that particles explain why electrons all have the same charge presupposes that all particles are identical, but why should that be? Your particle theory has to explain why all particles of a given type have the same property; or rather, why there are types of particles.

The field idea, as discussed here, actually explains why all electrons are identical: because they're all quantized excitations of the same field. It's the quantization that really does the trick, but after all that's how we got started here.
The probably is continuous, but the actual 'coming into being' is quantized. The question thus becomes 'Why are things quantized?' and the answers to that are either 'because they are' or unscientific in their nature.
I've never seen this before:

children(el => [
el.email = input(props({ type: 'email' })),
el.pass = input(props({ type: 'pass' })),
el.submit = button(text('Sign in'))
])

Can someone explains what this does and why it is used here?
As i understand it this function both modifies the `el` object (whatever that is) and returns an array containing the input elements, but why would you want to do both those things at the same time?
I disagree.

>As that uber-blogger Dave Winer observed: “Gawker is gone because Peter Thiel financed its murder-by-lawyer. It’s legal to do this in the US, but until now as far as I know, no one has crossed this line. Now that the line has been crossed, it’s fair to assume it will become standard practice for billionaires like Thiel to finance lawsuits until the publication loses and has to sell itself to pay the judgment.”

>I wasn’t ever a great admirer of Gawker, but Dave Winer is right: Thiel’s strategy demonstrates how tech money not only talks, but can now also suppress freedom of expression, even in the land of the first amendment.
I don't know anything about the physics, but here's something field-related that seems particle-like to me. On a smooth manifold (which is a space that is "locally Euclidean" in such a way that you can do calculus), there is a concept of a smooth vector field, which is a smooth assignment of a vector tangent to the manifold to each point. While there isn't too much to constrain a vector field, there is an invariant: if you take all the places where the vector field vanishes and compute something called the "index" there, and sum up all the indices, you get the Euler characteristic of the manifold. Index is an integer quantity, and it roughly corresponds to how many times the vector field spins around while going around the vanishing point once.

You can smoothly deform vector fields through time, and there are different features you can notice: zeros of opposite index annihilating each other, zeros of opposite index appearing out of nowhere, and other sorts of combinations of zeros combining and splitting.

For the surface of a ball, the Euler characteristic is 2, so the sum of indices must be two, so it seems spheres must be "positively charged," if index and charge are actually analogous. For a torus, the Euler characteristic is 0, so the "charge" is neutral. For a plane, on the other hand, the theorem I mentioned doesn't quite work because it requires a compact manifold, but a vector field could have any total index (though there will be a virtual zero at infinity which always has the opposite index).

If measuring charge corresponds to finding the total index in a region of space, then maybe that's why it's only ever an integer.

I doubt you'll get any replies. We tried using swarm in production, but could not ever get a reliable, working component. Failures of the worst kind would happen - networking would work 1/10 times meaning that a build could've conceivably gotten through CI.
