Each plays a different game. Only the general public and politicians make a fuss about this. The general public is shocked because they don't know, politicians act shocked because they must. People in Intelligence are a bit more clinical about it because they're not politicians. But even in the Intelligence Community, it's amazing how much gung-ho some former Intelligence Officers display.

You take "The Art of Intelligence" and it's so oversimplified and naive it's unbearable. I refuse to believe the author, an Ambassador at Large, thinks that way. His assets are brave and courageous, other nations' assets are traitors and evil. It's all good guys (him) vs. bad guys (others) and there's absolutely no way an Intelligence Officer, anywhere in the world, who is not mentally challenged, can think that way. It's people who don't know terrorism and have had nothing to do with it who have the most clear cut, black and white, views.

Contrast with this:

Who says the exact same thing as Michael Scheuer (former Intelligence Officer tasked with Bin Laden).

https://youtu.be/E0dPy2XCst8?t=6m29s

Describing what he says as blunt is an understatement. In that video, he says some things about Bin Laden that would get anyone thrown in a hole somewhere for apologia for terrorism. That's almost a eulogy.
Same different: the inability of our sun to go supernova "works", as does the wilful miscomprehension of my point - the question again is, towards what end.
I'm gonna call bollocks on that one.

Maybe some are a little iffy (around the airports of Florida perhaps), but I'm not sure you realise how close/cheap to reach Europe is and how many folks will hire a car out there too.

You're not the only country to drive on the opposite side of the road to us.
> but the acceleration starts exactly when you want it to

Have you ever driven a manual? They, too, can give you acceleration exactly when you want it.

My biggest gripe about driving in the US. No manuals to rent -.-

What Tesla does do better is the constant torque. That must be fun.
Range is absolutely the biggest issue for me. It's not really about total range either, but about convenience too. I often drive close to or just above the mentioned 600km limit.

As an example, I live in Graz, Austria, where there is just one supercharger. It's not massively convenient for where I live in the city, but it's a small city, so it's possibly reasonable. However, last week I drove to Budapest and back, via Slovenia, which is motorway/freeway/autobahn the entire route. Total journey distance is approximately 800kms.

There are no superchargers in Budapest. I could have returned via Vienna, adding another 50kms to the journey, but there is only one, inconveniently located, inner city supercharger in Vienna. I would lose a substantial amount of time leaving the motorway and ring road, to navigate to this sole supercharger.

Instead, I drive my Hyundai diesel and top up at any one of the multiple service stations enroute.

Superchargers need to be a lot more ubiquitous and located much closer to major arteries before this becomes a compelling proposition.

So, I don't think the supercharger network needs to be "slightly more expanded" in Eastern Europe, but greatly expanded and much more convenient.
It is also worth pointing out the i8 is a hybrid, with 15-23 miles of range on electric only.
My point was that the educational system has been tweaked to be easier for everyone across the board.

Children that previously performed better still perform well, children that performed worse now perform better than before.

I'm not rejecting that contraception could be a reason, it's just that you have to show convincing evidence for it. The more counter intuitive your theory is the more evidence you need to produce.

Imagine I declared that all of this is correlating with the size of Big Mac menus and has nothing to do with changes in the educational system. It wouldn't be unreasonable for you to question my theory, especially if I do not provide any evidence.

> Not sure why people feel a need to downvote things they don't agree with

I have no problem with that. If I'm just regurgitating what everyone is already believing then my comments would be pointless. I happen to have a different opinion and I know that for some this is offending. (but thats really their problem, not mine)
> military

Depends on the job. Infantry is universally a shitty deal, even during peacetime, but the POG[1] jobs tend to be both safer and better for civilian job opportunities.

I was an radio tech, and it opened up a huge amount of opportunities when I got out. I do electron microscopy at Intel now.

Regarding discipline issues - the military is the wrong place to deal with them. Gone are the days when wild young men could be "tamed" with a couple sessions of wall-to-wall counseling and other assorted "What's this dirt doing in my ditch, Luke" hazing sessions. The military doesn't like dealing with fucksticks, and they're happy to give them a couple of Article 15s and get them out the door as quickly as possible.

It used to be expected and even encouraged to raise hell as an enlisted man. It's now a career-ender, as the rise of social media and everyone having a smartphone turns uncontrollable dickheads into liabilities. Most senior staff don't like these changes, as they see good juniors with potential get burned for minor bad decisions that would have warranted an ass-chewing and a shitty work detail 20 years ago, but that's how the military is now. I'm just glad I'm out and don't have to go to this flagrantly asinine bullshit[2] anymore.

They'll just love the excuse to buy an external DAC/amp that connects via lightning.
They didn't offer it this year. Instead there was a "Sommer-Ticket", 4 rides for 96€ for ≤ 26 yr olds, which doesn't even come close. Compared to the 269€ (349€ for >26yrs) that the Deutschlandpass cost, and considering how much I used mine in 2013 (26 out of the 30 days, about half of which more than one ride), that's not even funny.
There is price, and there is cost...

Living in the Netherlands, the price of a Tesla is around 100.000 euros. However, if I can lease the thing, the actual cost (due to tax benefit, etc) drops like a rock to a level that compares to a small, cheap car. For full electric cars you hardly pay taxes because the government wants to stimulate this clean way of transportation.

Now comparing to a Mercedes with a similar price is wrong, simply because the Mercedes with a similar price is costing much, much more in day to day operation: more tax (heavy car = high tax), no green car, so more taxes).

I believe that at least for the Netherlands, most hybrid or full-electric cars are driven by people that have a company car. We just love tax refunds. We hate the hassle of charging, so many hybrid cars in 2015 (Mitsubishi Outlander is a good example) were driven on petrol - not electricity.
Why is Kerberos ticket forwarding better than agent forwarding? Either way, root (or a bad .bashrc) can use your credentials while you're logged in.
Sad faith - get super bloated, kill all the live in vicinity, then shrink to a shadow of former self for the remainder of the life time of the universe.

NO, supernova would be so much more spectacular. At least it might give a standard candle for others observing this galaxy, become a measuring stick for the universe, and spill some heavier elements for whatever comes next.

Zeroth, I'm not the owner of that blog. He's a CS researcher, I'm just a lowly programmer in the trenches. Just wanted to make that clear.

First, the Wikipedia article you quote is partially incorrect:

> This means that even if the concurrent units of the program, algorithm, or problem are executed out-of-order or in partial order, the final outcome will remain the same.

This is not true. Consider the following example: Mr. Foo and Ms. Bar are happily married, and own a shared bank account, whose initial balance is $400. Concurrently, they attempt to withdraw $200 and $300 respectively. The scheduling of the withdrawal operations will determine the final result:

(0) Foo has $200, Bar has nothing, and the final account balance is $200.

(1) Foo has nothing, Bar has $300, and the final account balance is $100.

> Note the 'decomposability' part, i.e. the having the property of being decomposable.

Both parallelism and concurrency are about decomposition. They are different kinds of decomposition, though. Parallel tasks cooperate towards a common goal. Concurrent tasks compete for access to common resources.

From my EMT course: The lawyer going after you would have to prove without doubt that the patient would clearly have survived if you didn't remove the bullet. In case of getting shot in the head, it's not very plausible that the patient would have survived anyways.

From a actual lawsuit: Someone without the proper training started an IV which later caused sepsis and death. Since the patient was admitted to an hospital it was not clear if an improply placed IV caused the death or an improper care in the hospital.
I think some of those humanities degrees would be better served as "leisure" degrees, for people who already have a career.

I also think STEM is a good background for any liberal arts subject - it give you analytical tools on which to hang the "meat" of the subject, and can curb some of the more "dubious" lit-crit style thinking that can exist in some of those subjects (unfalsifiable, subjective, tautological claims etc.).

I'm not speaking of lawlessness, I mean the actual lawful contract of who owns or can transfer or take possession of the data. Bitcoin introduces all sorts of novel ways to store and assign ownership of the Satoshi. Flags like ANYONE_CAN_PAY and scripts which equate to ANYONE_CAN_SPEND, or in this case a script which equates to SPEND_WITH_PWD.

The vast majority of people have zero understanding of the underlying crypto contract they are entering when they use Bitcoin. But there are experts who can explain what these scripts actually mean and who in turn can access the funds and under what conditions. Like buying other commodities electronically, it is best to consult an expert if you don't know what you're doing. That doesn't change the terms of the underlying contract.
Young white single males will almost certainly get older, might get married, have kids, grandkids etc. possibly expanding their extended family tree across several ethnic communities over the generations. So I'd say that if a movement truly only caters to the young white single male while he remains in that state, rather than planning and providing for his future, then yes, it probably is inescapably and dangerously proto-fascistic.
>Just don't ask me to proof anything

I don't mean to offend, but being able to prove things is generally the main focus of advanced mathematics. If you can't prove what you know, or at least have a rough outline of a proof you could construct after referring to something, you haven't learned it in the same way those at a university have.

If you look more closely, you'll note that many of those requests (some of which come with threats attached) are from people not in the community: they are activists trying to push harmful codes of conduct onto projects they have no involvement with.

I have no idea what you're talking about with regards to wrong libraries and dependencies. I made no mention of such a thing.
Doesn't that imply that every process in the universe proceeds in lock-step? If two virtual particles were to randomly pop into existence, does the time between the first and second particle appearing have to happen in some whole multiple of Planck time?

How overclocking affects the performance and power consumption of mobile chips
> Tesla dont pay for advertising, so I'm not sure what marketing you are referring to. Or how they are reaching a larger market?

Marketing doesn't exclusively mean advertising:

The American Marketing Association has defined marketing as "the activity, set of institutions, and processes for creating, communicating, delivering, and exchanging offerings that have value for customers, clients, partners, and society at large."[0]

Tesla has a clear marketing strategy in terms of what types of cars they sell and to what types of people. The fact that they don't pay for advertising doesn't change that. Musk/Tesla can be selective about who they do interviews with, or provide test cars to, etc. Those things are part of the marketing, even if there is no explicit purchasing of advertising.

This. And it'll be addressed naturally once plumbers retire. The existence of fewer plumbers means that their prices will go up, which will attract more people into the trade.

That sort of transparency is not an intrinsic property of blockchain-based systems. There are already several cryptocurrency protocols in use that obscure data in their blockchains to various extents.

Dash [0] does CoinJoin-style mixing at the protocol level. Some newer systems use cryptographic techniques to provide even better security guarantees. Monero [1] implements the Cryptonote protocol, which uses ring signatures [2] to obscure who owns what and who's transacted with whom. Zcash, an implementation of the Zerocoin protocol [3] that should go live in a couple of months, will use zero-knowledge proofs [4] to similar effect.

There have even been a couple of well developed proposals for changing the Bitcoin protocol to make it impractical to track transfers of coins. And one of them will probably get implemented eventually, since privacy (unlike transaction throughout) is a real concern among many of the leading Core developers.

I'm not the slightest bit interested in perfect use failure rates, because humans are rarely perfect (especially not the ones who think they are), and the consequences of a whoops are pretty immense, both for the couple and for the unwanted child that results.

Meanwhile, an implant has a 0.05% typical use failure rate, and an IUD 0.2%. I'm not taking any chances - I'm infertile, have had a vasectomy, and my wife has an IUD. My current set of twins (via donor sperm) are plenty of work for my liking.

But plugging the analog hole on audio, stereo even, is impossible. The only reason HDCP was even a remotely plausible idea is that it's very difficult to capture 1080p 30fps from say the column drivers of a LCD.

Capturing a 44kHz audio signal by snipping the lead off the loudspeaker and putting it into your recorder is very, very trivial. As far as RF engineers are concerned that's pretty much DC.

I think it's great to use JavaScript to control and combine the best of both worlds: accessibility APIs plus screen scraping / selective screencasting / pattern recognition / computer vision.

For example, you could use the accessibility APIs to find the screen position of the video window in the Skype application, perform facial recognition and tracking, and screencast the video onto a texture of a VR chat application.
