I wonder what Assange's economic philosophy is. Is he a socialist? That would explain why he is so convinced the capitalist US is the main danger in the world today. I have noticed that many socialists are friendly toward Putin's Russia, even though it is very far from being socialist, because it's the US's enemy.

On the other hand, he claims to be opposed to all big, oppressive governments. So is he a libertarian? But then he would be friendlier toward the US than Russia.

Maybe he doesn't have an economic philosophy. But that would be crazy, because econmics is so important for so many things involving human well-being.

Anybody know where Assange stands on this?

Good service is not just about being on time. If thats the only thing you care for, you have low expectations.
Daily, at least. Depends what you're doing, I suppose, but playing with large files in image editing software means a lot of memory gets doled out and virtually none of it ever makes it back into the pool when a program exits (Windows seems to be overly concerned that you might want to use that memory with that program again "right away", where "right away" means sometime in the next six weeks or so). There's little point in suspending; that just leaves the machine in a laggy state. And by "laggy", I mean Eclipse-on-a-Pentium-3 laggy. Shutting down when the machine's not actively in use means I get a better shot at not having to reboot in the middle of session.
You (along with the immediate parent) actually do have a good point here. If any pollsters ask, I'd probably say I support Johnson for this reason, though overall I'd personally prefer Green policies over Libertarian ones. There's something to be said for Greens/Libs banding together just to help wedge third parties into the process at all. This kind of strategizing is still pretty unfortunate though, and only makes sense for the polling/debate process, not necessarily the electoral one.

Not to mention the CPD would almost certainly change the debate qualifiers immediately to still keep Johnson out, same as the DNC did with Lawrence Lessig.

The training lapses and other personnel issues which put a flight attendant in the lead role on a top international route (so, one of their most senior/experienced; likely 50+ years old and with 20-30 years in the job...international routes are pretty highly coveted) are an independent issue from the stocking issue, and do come down on the airline as well.

In natural language processing tasks you see a lot of non-CNN architectures. These usually are designed to be able to deal with sequential data, so some kind of "memory" is needed.

Sometimes you see this combined with a CNN. There has been a few question answering systems that have one or more CNN layers. In don't entirely understand these designs, but presumably the convultional layers are an attempt to understand the different orders of words.

There are lots of techniques that people use to try to make deep networks work well. Mostly theses are about making errors backprog better. One of the most successful recent innovations is the ResNet architectures (https://arxiv.org/abs/1512.03385), and the related highway networks.
Scene: FDA officials appearance at the House Committee on Energy and Commerce (Subcommittee on Health)

Representative 1: We've been following this antibacterial resistance case closely for a few years now. Every year, a greater number of my constituents have related to me the story of how they lost a loved-one due to MSRA - and staph infection, as I understand, isn't even the only thing that this, uhh, the resistance to bacteria dru--err- medications. So, as you know, we've asked you here today to better understand how we can plan to solve this looming crisis. What have you got for us?

FDA1: Well, generally speaking, we've been working with a number of the same antibiotics that have been in use for many decades now. Their effectiveness has been continuously diminishing since the first introduction of each antibiotic. The general consensus here at the FDA is, we need to encourage the development and mass production of multiple new drugs to combat the inevitable growing resistance.

REP2: And what is it that you mean by inevitable?

FDA2: If I may field this question - what my colleague is referring to here is the fact that long-term exposure to specific antibiotics necessarily results in resistance to the same.

REP3: So, you're talkin' about evolution here, right? Just so we're all on the same page.

(Indistinguishable snickering throughout the room)

FDA2: Ye-- That's one way to describe it.

REP2: So what exactly is it that you need from us to enact your plan?

FDA1: Well, that's why we came to you. You see, it's not a very lucrative business opportunity -- developing a new antibiotic. Our custo-- your constituents would have to buckle their belts a little, because we need at least $30 million more for our budget to be pumped into early research in the university system.

(The whole crowd erupts in laughter!)

REP1: Hahahaha! Tax reallocations in this political climate! Don't get me started... But we did tell you to give us your pie in the sky ideas first, so what else do you have for us today?

FDA3: The abuse of antibiotics in the livestock industry is not onl--

REP2: Oh no... We've been through this before. How else are we going to get chickens big enough to feed the world?

FDA1: Well, there's an other option too. We could stop using antibacterial soaps more than necessary in hospitals, which as you know, are the hotbeds of new infe--

REP1: Let me stop you right there. Do you even have any idea as to how much we spent on the last - washing your hands saves lives - campaign? If our const-- your patients knew that you were just washing your hands with regular soap, do yo-- no. Not even an option. We don't want to call you here again for this same issue next year.

FDA4: What if we just banned them for personal use? No one would be negatively affected, and it would appear to be a decisive action to solve the problem.

REP1: That does sound reasonable... Any objections from the committee?

REP4: No, I don't have any soap manufacturers in my state-- hahaaha

REP1: Then a voiced vote shall suffice. All those in favor

The author says in the comments that they were over 2 hours from any airport, and given that this was halfway into a 17 hour flight, it's a fair guess they were somewhere over the Pacific -- the closest airport might have been on some little island.

MagicMirror²: The open source modular smart mirror platform
Sorry man, you are about 15 years too late. Everyone knows what Linux is and uses it pretty much all the time along with everything else.

The single best way I have found to switch to Linux as a desktop user is to dual boot my main home computer with Windows 7 or 10 and Ubuntu and then run Windows 10 PRO on my HTPC (that's "Home Theater PC" in 2009 parlance) so that I can RDP to it from Ubuntu to use Excel and Powershell and then also have two laptops: A macbook air and then also a Dell that dual boots both Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04. I would say that 9/10th of the time I just go ahead and use the macbook air. But booting into Ubuntu gives me that "party like it's 1999" feeling still, like I am really sticking it to the man, especially every time I sudo apt-get upgrade. Yes, I use ubuntu on all of my servers except the one's at work, which are all CentOS. Don't even get me started on my phone and tablet either.

Computers turned out to be just about the most schizophrenic world imaginable honestly. You have to know a ton of languages and Operating Systems and literally every company is trying their darnedest to lock you in. Welcome to the future. We are all polyglot. Wouldn't it have been awesome if ATT wouldn't have been such profit hungry assholes in the 80's and we could all be sitting here using UNIX and not having to learn tomorrows hot new language and don't forget google is launching FUCHSIA soon, which is a new OS that will replace Android, Linux, Java and... oh whatever. I should start learning Go I think. Node can suck it by the way, although I am sure some dick is sitting there in college writing a Node OS right now and it will end up powering smart cars and moonbases and microwave ovens and be worth a zillion dollars. I am not smart enough for this.

Just to be clear, the dark pattern isn't the re-authentication itself, it's hiding the "Subscriptions" button behind a button that says "View Apple ID" where many people (myself included) may not think to look. The re-authentication just compounds the problem by hindering discoverability of where the "Subscriptions" button actually is, because you have to go through a password prompt to find it.

The Settings app built-in search doesn't work either. If you search for "Subscriptions" it doesn't appear, because it's behind hidden behind this password prompt (to be more generous, that entire screen is probably only generated once you've logged in, but it doesn't have to be that way).

Additionally, the "View Apple ID" button itself is also non-obvious: you have to click your email address first for it to come up as a pop-over. I recognise my email address in blue is a link to my account information, but a less experienced user might (reasonably) think otherwise. It would probably be better for your account name to have a right disclosure arrow next to it (taking you to a new view with your account options inside) to specifically indicate that touching it takes you to this new screen, because that's the way everything else in the Settings app works.

To solve all of this, you could just as easily put the "Subscriptions" button one level up in the "iTunes & App Store" screen, before the password prompt, and only prompt for a password after the user has clicked it. This would solve all of these problems.

If this sounds confusing, that's because it is. That's the real problem here.

"Tesla has absolutely nothing sustainable propriety..."

I'm sure that's just a start.

Apple has nothing "sustainable propriety" and that doesn't stop it from making bank.

I know a girl that had to leave the U.S. >24< years after her parents brought her there ( she was a baby ).

The story ( as far as I can remember ) is that a family of Germans moved to the U.S. with their 1 year old child. 24 years later the child graduated university and ... needs to apply for a green card or permanent VISA.

US government refused, so she had to come back to Germany.

I've never understood why U.S. is so protective in terms of citizenship. In most of the EU countries you get naturalized ( receive citizenship ) if you spend certain amount of time in the country and pass a test ( Germany I think it's 7 yrs ).

The west hasn't ceased industrial development, and we'd be remiss to pretend that we have. The fact that we've outsourced a lot of the costs to China and then to other countries doesn't change the fact that we extract growth from dumping toxins and pollutants into the environment.

If we want to preach learning from mistakes, we should take our privileged position and lead the charge. We do the opposite of that, externalizing the costs of ongoing industrialization to societies that can least afford the costs.

The ultimate math is a zero-sum game. Industrialization produces efficiency and waste, and a lot of the meaningful waste comes in the form of harm to our future environment. We haven't actually devised a way to produce industrial goods without producing massive byproducts that harm people somewhere.

Until we have, the best course of action we can take is to reduce consumption. But so far we've done the opposite.
That provision is presumably for "this guy told us where to find Bin Laden/Edward Snowden/Satoshi Nakamoto" level activities.
>Invisible hotspots to bring up necessary dialogs

Oh, I disabled that early on so I forgot about it. The only one of significance was the start menu corner, but that was also remedied in 8.1.

>settings split into multiple different places that used to be collected in one place

The settings panel is the same as Windows 10. I'd definitely argue against all settings being in one place on 7 though. There's dozens of different locations: control panel, the registry, local/group policy editor, folder options, the "advanced" system settings panel (contains completely unrelated settings such as environmental variables, performance toggles, DEP, and remote assistance). Then there's lots of weird quirky menus like the one you get by entering "control userpasswords2" into the run dialog.

I see the new settings panel as a cleaner frontend to the existing settings. Hopefully over time they'll be consolidated there.

>flat UI elements

I love it.

>two conflicting interfaces (tablet UI on a mouse-based device? bleh).

I don't see the conflict, but the start screen worked just fine on mouse for me. It took a week to relearn some muscle memory and then I was over it. In the end I found it much more efficient. The targets were larger and it didn't waste a ton of screen space like the current start menu does.
I'm pretty sure new hardware can run old OS. It's just new features won't be utilized.
I disagree completely. It's helpful to make a reference comparison, as it's about disproportionate wealth. In fact the author goes so far as to comment on the purchasing power - grain for a year etc... And in fact doesn't make a 1:1 comparison but extrapolates based on funding the military. Knowing that makes it more relevant and worth reading.
Rationally speaking, yeah, it doesn't mean much more than that they won't work with it, independent of who's to blame, but I did initially still read it as if it was Intel's and AMD's fault, and I'm obviously not alone with that either.

Better would have been like I've already used it: "Intel's and AMD's chips won't work with Windows 7/8"

Then it's completely open why that is and the reader can make up their own mind.
If OpenOffice is retired as specified in 7.3(b) in the submission...

> 7.3 There is no active attention to preservation of the trademarks related to Apache OpenOffice. (a) Inappropriate use of Apache and its symbols in names of offerings will be defended when brought to the attention of branding@. (b) Uses of OpenOffice, Open Office, openoffice.org and other similarities without attribution to Apache are not addressed.

...then LibreOffice could start using the OpenOffice brand, e.g. "Libre OpenOffice".

I think Apache giving up the brand like that would create a bad precedent, though. Another of Apache's projects might get forked and renamed by the subset of its PMC that do the programming, who then later claim their brand back using this as a precedent. E.g. Apache Groovy might be cloned by the Grails crowd and renamed the Grails Language, and with the programmer in Groovy's PMC who adequately knows his way around Groovy's codebase joining them. When Apache Groovy has further atrophied, the Grails people could then claim the "Groovy" brand using the "OpenOffice Precedent".

VA hospitals generally support university research, not military research. The military has their own hospitals and more importantly their own field casualty care systems. Source: I am a physician researcher at a military medical center.

As far as trusting research, you can probably find a good solid reason to distrust any research. Whatever your politics you can probably find something you disagree with about any given funding agency. But in that case we should just revert to our Neanderthal selves and solve all of our problems with clubs. What you should be doing is thinking critically about the introduction and method section And comparing them to the results. If you're in the field, you should know the authors or at least something about them and their methods.
