Thank you. Although I have not had a chance to study this regrettable list as closely as I presume you did, a perfunctory search finds only two disappearances, both of them in 1995-1996 during the first Chechen war:

1995 27 February – Maxim Shabalin, politics editor of Nevskoe Vremya newspaper (St Petersburg).[62] and Felix Titov, the paper's photographer, disappeared on an assignment to Chechnya. Despite numerous expeditions, from 1995 to 1999, no trace was found of the two men's remains. Missing [J].

20 March 1996 Chaikova, correspondent for the Obshchaya gazeta (Moscow) weekly newspaper disappeared while on assignment. Her body was found buried in the Chechen village of Gekhi on 11 April, blindfolded and bearing signs of mistreatment. The cause of death was a gunshot wound to the back of the head. The identity of her executioners remains disputed. According to documents from Dudaev's archive, that came into hands of Russian special services in 2002, she was killed by people from so called "Department of state security of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria" (Russian: Департамент государственной безопасности ЧРИ).[152][153] At the time there were strong suspicions that Russian security services were involved.

So far we have a list of two, not very prominent, journalists, who disappeared twenty years ago while reporting on a war with well-documented atrocities on both sides. I don't believe this is what the GP had in mind, writing that "prominent people (journalists, politicians, businessman) who uncover 'too much information' - just 'disappear'".

As an unrelated aside, this happened during the good Russian administration -- dynamic, democratic, West-approved Yetsin, who was so popular in his own country, that Bill Clinton himself came to Russia to support his election campaign:

http://www.nytimes.com/1996/04/18/opinion/mr-clinton-and-mr-...

President Clinton arrives in Russia today facing issues that will severely test his diplomatic mettle. Mr. Clinton's primary purpose is to join other world leaders in a weekend summit meeting on nuclear safety and security that seems primarily designed to burnish Boris Yeltsin's prestige as he campaigns for re-election as Russian President.
You've been right for years. Easy money has kept things stable but starting from right now, if you invest in stocks and bonds and hold for 20 years, you should expect pretty low returns. Everything is expensive

Since FDR, social programs has been implemented, so actually, yes, everyone is owed something because we understood that society can easily crash if some people don't have food.
No, it means that men are incarcerated at a higher rate than women.
The solution to that seems easy: Preferred placement. Alibaba can simply promote the vendors who have signed on to the design royalties system, possibly penalizing those who have not.

The 1-3% IP overhead then becomes effectively a marketing overhead.
No, RPM and Deb files don't work for many distributions.

Yes, the formats are shared (say, RPM for Fedora, RedHat, Suse). But the resulting binaries aren't (usually, automatically - you might get lucky of course) compatible.

The whole point of distributions is to build a system. Fedora and Suse are on different schedules, make different decisions about updates, might run different versions of the libraries your package (here: pinta) depends upon.

Your RPM file often isn't even usable between different releases of the same distribution. So just adding a random RPM wouldn't make sense. You brought up OBS elsewhere: One of the major reasons that thing exists is so that you can build packages .. for a list of target platforms. OBS is a service that uses a build recipe and upstream sources (pintas tarball) to spit out binary packages for various different environments and formats.

So one additional RPM file wouldn't do the trick here.
To clarify, the gamma energy from K-40 in bananas is around 1.5 MeV, which is dangerous to humans. It's not the most dangerous, but it is dangerous in significant amounts (which are much much higher than what is in a banana).

A BED is usually taken as 1 micro-Sievert. Sieverts are a unit for measuring the biological effect of radiation, hence they are normalized to adjust for how harmful the given type of radiation is. A dose of 1 Sievert represents a 5.5% chance of eventually developing cancer. 1 Sievert is 10000000 BEDs.

The part that is a bit misleading about the BED is that it's not the same as the dose you get from eating a banana. This is because of how potassium is absorbed in the body; all the K-40 in the banana isn't staying around in your body. The BED is the dose you would be exposed to for absorbing the equivalent amount of K-40 in the same number of bananas. Bananas are fine for putting small doses or activities into perspective since the biological effects are negligible, but are not really great for comparing against more significant doses.
And yet not a single person died or are likely to die due to radiation poisoning. This begs the question, if all those fail-safes failed, do we really need them ?
I am glad that lot of people disagree. Let's NOT bring back police, gangsters and politicians.
"Socialist-like" policies usually work when they have militaristic end goals. The reason is that the govt is actually incentivized to maintain its power and protect it citizenry. Most even right leaning people would agree that government spending in this case actually makes sense because the government is directly acting in its own interests much like a private company does.
Trump is popular because Clinton is un-electable. As someone who works in IT, I know the kinds of hoops people jump through to make sure everything is secure. And for her just to shit on those rules so willingly is un-redeemable IMO.
Whilst I mostly agree, I think the key difference is that the US has a majority control of international media, and whilst they love to hype up domestic concerns for viewer ratings, they're significantly more reckless when talking about "not-America".

The fact that you level Australia and the US has both "safe and stable"; the US is an order of magnitude more troublesome than Aus (As someone who has lived in Australia but currently lives in & loves the US)
I'm not awed by the photo samples.

This looks like a premium-priced hobbyist camera, not a realistic substitute for a good SLR.

There's a lot to be said for the form factor for hobby/casual photography. SLRs can be a PITA to carry around in a way that smaller cameras aren't. Just by being portable, this camera will catch a lot of images that a big SLR won't.

But image quality is clearly a good few steps short of the output of an equivalently priced Canon or Nikon DSLR.

That will be an acceptable compromise for many buyers - but it won't work for everyone.
Fine, now please apply the same logic to coal plants that kill 7000000 people/year.

Hinkley point C has a guaranteed strike price of £92.50/MWh + inflation [1].
That is 10.223 Eurocent per kWh, without any inflation adjustment yet and with the recent fall of the Pound compared to the Euro. The last time free standing photovoltaic installations got a fixed price in Germany it was 8.55 Eurocent per kWh in August 2015 [2]

Gen IV reactors certainly have some better traits compared with conventional nuclear power, however they might not be good enough, are far off and lots of problems might only be detected when you actually put them into use (like it happened with the THTR-300).

It may not come from an individual, but there is certainly an element of the JS community that seems to operate de jure. Frameworks are "the next hot thing" before they've hardly shipped a production site of any consequence, let alone shown the ability to improve things across a large array of sites, or had time for the negatives to be shaken out. Or a "next hot thing" ships one massive site like Facebook or something and it's the "next hot thing" before anybody can realize that they aren't Facebook and don't have three hundred dedicated front end developers themselves, and it's way less clear the NHT will work for two guys in a closet working on a startup.

I don't agree with this analogy. It's not like google is offering to redo your site in AMP for you. You still have to do the lightweight optimization yourself. You're just using a library that will guide you in how to do it by imposing restrictions like not loading from too many sources.

It's more like people don't feel like following a weight loss program until a trusted professional outlines an easy to follow and precise method.

Take a look at English history, say, Roman times (43 AD) to present. It's fascinating on multiple counts. I'm sketchy on this myself, but a rough outline:

The Romans were, of course, a foreign occupying force, but they served to keep other foreign occupying forces out. Once the Romans left (~450 AD), that stopped being the case, and England was successively invaded by Norsemen ("Northmen", a/k/a Vikings, Normandy is also settled by the Norse), and Saxons (from present day Holland / Netherlands), mostly.

William the Conqueror (Norman) was the last foreign invador to both substantially engage the dominant British inhabitants on their own soil, the last to defeat England (absent invited parties, e.g., Mortimor and the Prince of Orange). 1066 was the last time until the first World War that England was subject to any significant foreign attack, and the last time until the second World War that London itself was engaged by an enemy. I find that pretty significant.

There were numerous almost (though not quite) always peaceful devolutions of power from the Crown to an ever expanding scope of at first nobles, and finally commoners. The Magna Carta (1215), War of Roses (1485), the English Civil Wars (1642 & 1648), Commonwealth of England (1649), the Protectorate (1653-1659), the Bill of Rights (1689), Chartism (1838-1858) (the UK's answer to the Revolutions of 1848 and their populist reforms), Local Governance Acts (1888, 1894), and increasing welfare-state reforms of the 1930s - 1950s.

Throughout almost all of this has been a devolution of power from the centre to the periphery.

It's also occurred largely by the fact that those claiming additional power -- barons, lords, a growing merchantile and political class, and finally the proletariat -- could effectively make such demands, threatening disruption otherwise.

The concept of a revolution in the modern sense seems, well, quite modern: France (1794), Europe generally (1848), Russia (1917) and the subsequent Communist Revolutions of China and Cuba. (I'm excluding the Communisation of Eastern Europe which was in fact an act of imperial oppression by Soviet Russia). The Fascist revolutions of Italy and German (a strongly cautionary tale). The fall of the USSR and Communist Eastern Europe, though should fit. I'd include the Iranian Revolution (1979), though that was not in the Liberal tradition.

More generally, power transitions are from one oligarchical group to another, though frequently playing on public sentiments.
That's unfortunate that it didn't work for you. I'm glad to know you had given it a shot, though, so you at least know there's probably not a more natural fix for the problem. I really hope they find something and can give you something to ease your pain. Good luck.

The backend is not done in Elixir, but Go.

I would love to do it in Elixir with Phoenix, but this would mean the team has to learn another tool. Go is really easy and fast to pick up. Here the Go Toolchain/Ecosystem matters, which is easy to grasp, and you get a type system, which is not as sophisticated as in Elm, but fits the job.

An older project was done with Grails/Groovy. This was fun and fast to iterate. But after a while, when you come back to the old project code, it is hard to get the dynamic types into your head. So actually I would prefer a static type system.
I know there is some tool for Elixir to handle this. But I did not look into this.
You can do it with a simple boost converter. Additionally I don't think you really need a 555 or anything. There are self-resonant converters that should do the trick.

Growing economy?

The growth rate in the past several years in the developed world has been the lowest in any economic expansion. In the US, around 1.5% lately and is only positive because the inflation rate calculated by the government (by which it is adjusted) is significantly under-estimated.
I don't do that. What's the reasoning behind that?
I completely agree, however people were saying pretty much the exact same things about Apple's phone efforts about ten years ago. In hindsight, it's clear that smartphones lined up just about perfectly with Apple's core competencies, but before they proved it in the market, people were saying just this sort of thing: the engineering is tough and different, the stuff Apple is good at isn't the stuff that's hard, regulation is far more difficult, it's not just a tiny computer, etc.

Now, just because they were wrong to say it then doesn't mean you're wrong to say it now. I think you're right. I'm just saying that phones are a terrible example to bring up if one is arguing that SV companies can't take over industries with entrenched incumbents.

Agree wholeheartedly. I've seen people suggest from time to time that TAOCP should be used strictly as a reference book (like a dictionary or a thesaurus) - I suspect people who try to use it that way are going to be disappointed when they look up, say, the Trie algorithm and find out that the text assumes that you're already proficient in MIX programming, and back-references a half-dozen formulas from previous volumes (sometimes from the exercises!)
> "S&P has never lost money over any 10 year period"

Investing a dollar in 1929 meant 20 bad years. Sitting on that dollar for 3 years and investing it in 1932 meant no bad years.

If I look at some expectations and common beliefs that people hold in 2016, I can't help but wonder whether we have one of those 20 bad year periods coming up.

(By the way, part of the success of US assets is definitely related to American companies leading the way in business innovation like IT. But another part is related to the US running trade deficits and the dollar being the reserve currency, meaning large amounts of dollar liquidity flooded back into the US and mostly into its financial system.)

Work seems to be becoming zero sum competition, which is inherently nonproductive. Advertising, shitty flashlight apps, sales, much financial work, etc; we could drop many of these with little to no negate impact on productivity in society. These jobs exist because useful work is running out, so people are hiring extra labor to fight over their slice of the pie.

I don't know if it's really a bad thing for students to assume that their teachers are not going to mess with them by giving them an unsolveable problem, doesn't that just indicate that they trust their teacher? In the case of real world problems, there may or not be a specific correct answer, and I think students know that on some level. Maybe a better way to ask that question would be, "Suppose you know that there are 125 sheep and 5 dogs in a flock. Your friend Amelia asks you, 'How old is the shepherd?' What would be your response?" That way the hypothetical nature of the question is more obvious.
>Bad news gives people a great survivor emotion. There's a great euphoria that pours off the bad news item... This survivor emotion is very necessary for news papers and news reports, also it helps to sell advertising which is all good news and is therefore very threatening. Good news threatens people with change. Bad news merely enables them to enjoy the grief of their neighbours.

One reason it matters is because our Constitution explicitly grants citizens (not foreigners) certain rights. Our government is not allowed to violate those rights and if they do, they can technically be held accountable. The government can do shady things to outsiders within the constraints of the Constitution.

As long as our government is honoring the Constitution, we have some hope of fixing its problems/flaws. If they decide they don't need to honor the Constitution, we have little hope of doing so...

As a 23 year old I can only imagine what it was like to live through the cold war with the colossal fear of nuclear annihilation soaking into every activity/decision.

I feel like it must have been so overwhelming yet intangible - in some ways a nuclear holocaust is much less painful than losing a loved one in a car accident or seeing your country splinter into violent factions. A nuclear holocaust is a quick, binary event - either it happens, or it doesn't.

I also can't imagine what the fear of being drafted into a WWII or Vietnam War situation would feel like.

Would love to hear what anyone with experience has to say about those "ages" of fear relative to this new one of mass-media/technology-produced fear.

Having spent some time with Protractor and strong believer of the importance of writing tests, I think that writing end-to-end tests for a complex web application is quite hard and you will often end up spending more time for testing compared to writing the application code.

Where "20 bad years" meant that your investment did not keep up with inflation, or barely kept up with inflation, but it still grew in dollar terms.

In terms of bad things happening, that's fairly benign. It could be worse, and probably will be some time. I'm just not going to predict when.
It disappears more or less the wavelength of the light concerned. Any object seen through optics will be surrounded by coloured fringes, and if the object is small compared to the fringes -- then its all just rainbow nothingess.

The size of the fringes depends on the instrument. But in a very high numerical-aperture microscope, it will be around about the wavelength of the light itself.
