I would like to propose the following counter-argument: not everyone who supports voter ID is doing so because they want to disenfranchise a certain class of voter; not everyone who opposes voter ID wants to commit fraud.

From there, we can assume that there is a reason to have Voter ID, and that is that it prevents a certain type of disenfranchisement: the dilution of your vote because someone else votes twice. That is, Voter ID ensures that nobody gets more than the 1 vote they are allotted in a Democracy.

There have been successful voter ID laws, and they usually are successful because they are bipartisan. Specifically, in Crawford v. Marion, the Supreme Court found that it was legal to have a voter ID law that included

(1) the ability to vote up to 30 days before the election at a courthouse, and

(2) free voter ID.

Further, the plaintiffs were unable to provide a single case of anyone who was unable to vote as a result of this law.

So, while voter ID is currently a controversial and partisan topic, it doesn't need to be: it is possible to both ensure that people only vote once, and ensure that they also get to vote.

It's absolutely stunning how many testers I've worked with didn't understand the "Preconditions/Actions/Expected/Actual" as a bare minimum for a bug report.

> Avoid using ambiguous words like “broken” or “not working.”

Holy crap yes, this. So many infuriating waste of time bugs. And adding screenshots is good to call out. "X looks wrong", is useless, "X looks wrong <screenshot attached>" might still be useless, but at least you're trying.
This is awesome. I think this is much needed for boys and children today.
I have worried about this a lot, but basically now try to get inspiration and take example from webs that I consider highly readable. I also developed a set of internal rules; for instance, my maximum "black" is #333 (#333333) and my minimum "white" is #eee (#EEEEEE). Anything going further than these to the middle should have a real reason and not just because it's prettier.

Edit: #333 over a #eee (worst-case scenario with my guideliness) gives a 10.9:1 ratio, while #333 over #fff gives a 12.6:1 ratio, both totally acceptable. So I am not sure how the author concludes that #333 is not good enough and we should use #000;

Why should the people who is doing it right and pleasant change it because few others are using ridiculous colors as in the examples? It's like saying you shouldn't eat any sugar at all because many people is fat when you are perfectly healthy.
Insurance companies want nothing to do with attractive nuisances; they'd much prefer you live in a padded cell, drawing a paycheck and paying your bills. In short, they are scum.

No, that's not true either. I've never had to show ID here in Switzerland, not least because I mostly vote by mail.

And, since I think it's the same in Switzerland and Austria, you're not required to carry ID but if the Police need to establish your identity and you don't carry ID, they can take you to the police station.

Coming for someone with the Nexus 6 as well, which i am incredibly happy with. I have wondered if it is worth making the jump and getting the Pixel as well.

Those phones are mostly the same. The Pixel XL is slightly smaller but offers a premium design and improvements in hardware, including a faster processor and more RAM.

Both offer pure Android, but the Pixel receives a handful of exclusive features.

At least for me, i believe that i will not switch phone for another year.
Pixel is a bit overpriced at that range ( as iphones ). I expected it to be at least a bit cheaper.

Either i will wait a few months to see if the prices drops for the pixel or wait for the next year phone.
Be warned, those parks, while big, can't be used for much. Most of them have "no ball sports" signs, and yes, it's enforced. Can you imagine going to a huge park and not being able to throw a frisbee?
Payment processors like First Data and Cybersource have had these types of APIs available to their merchants since the late 90s actually.

Since you mentioned Stripe - they are actually one of the cheapest options to process AmEx, depending on the volumes and CC/Debit breakdown even cheaper then going through AmEx directly in some cases.

So again this is more of a business driver vs. the available tech thing.
More likely they would lock your account until you pay up, which is different from the digital equivalent of confiscating all your stuff ie, getting banned.
I completely don't agree with your "question redistricting". I'm voting for a person not a party.

For example, 3 is solidly not Hillary. Speakers she had at the DNC, tweets after Dallas shooting, on and on.

Trump is 100% pro-lgbt and has never been a christian, so 14 isn't him.

Trump also is for legalizing medicinal and letting states determine recreational, so 7 is him, not her (have a strong sense from things she's written that she won't legalize).

And the ones you earmarked as toss-ups etc are more him. They also are VERY important to ME, so not the non-issues you paint them as.

There's a few others like this. But I have to go.

I guess as a consumer I feel like I already have this option. Bank of America and Citi both offer disposable CC numbers for online purchases. I happen to be at BofA (not a fan of them, but I needed a national bank), and, Googling just now, it looks like I can log on to my online banking and get a disposable number right now, without even signing up for anything.

I was hopeful a "credit card built for the 21st century" would offer something genuinely new. I guess this has push notifications about charges, which is nice. And it can go in a digital wallet, but digital wallets are supposed to refrain from giving out CC #s anyway (or at least Apple Pay does that).

To be clear, I'm not casting judgment on Final's prospects as a business, just pointing out why I as a consumer would not want to go to the trouble of signing up. I do think the mission is a great one and hope they succeed (seriously).

Sure. In the US, at least where I live, a lot of smaller restaurants don't take cards, as well as a lot of smaller non-chain neighborhood bars.

If you're paying cashless, the credit card processor and company is skimming a small percentage off the tips. With the razor margins in the hospitality/food industry, that 3% adds up to maybe your entire profit margin.
>They are now all chasing a fixed advertising pie, but the barrier to publishing has been greatly lowered

Possibly shrinking advertising pie.

Before papers made lots of money selling classified ads locally. Ads for cars, houses, and random junk may have sold for $20 each, but they had hundreds of them. And each market was different leading people to pay double or triple market boundaries (say places with more than one large paper).

Then comes Craigslist and a few other services (even Ebay is a good example for junk not getting posted to the paper). These places allowed lots of people that used to pay, to post for free. Others profit after the sale is completed, leading to little risk to the poster.

Let's say that between these hundreds of papers the combined amount of money coming in was $10,000,000 (this is completely made up, I'm sure I could get realistic numbers if I put a lot of time into it). Each one was making enough money to stay alive. Now, with the new online selling services charging very little, the combined online services made only $1,000,000 a week. But because of their low cost distribution model they still profited hansom. There was a theoretical contraction of $9 million a week in advertising revenues among all the papers, which means a huge number of them had to consolidate or go under. With people not reading the paper for those ads (which I still remember being highly popular in the 80s and 90s) distributions fell even further.

Simply put, nothing could save the papers as they were. It had nothing to do with the contents inside of them, but how they were funded.
'Helicopter parenting' is misleading: it's not the degree of parental involvement and oversight that's the problem, it's the degree of unwelcome interference. True, if I'm going to err I'd rather err on the side of benign neglect. Yet blaming 'overprotective' parents is unfair. It only takes phone call or two and children can be temporarily removed by social services. The mere prospect of which is a major heartache.

The counterfeits are being sent to shoppers who were specifically looking for genuine apple products (I agree I've heard bad things about Apple's strain relief) so presumably the quality isn't the problem for these buyers.

If people are walking by an apple store every day, but go bargain-hunting on the internet when they need an Apple product, then sure. Lower the price, get the customers away from Amazon, and you can make sure they get the genuine item.

But if customers are going to buy from Amazon anyway, it's impossible to drop the price far enough to make counterfeits unprofitable, because counterfeits can always be more profitable as they can target lower specs.

If a 2.5A fast charger costs $10 to make, and a shitty 500mA counterfeit costs $5 to make, the counterfeiter will make 100% profit even if the legitimate manufacturer sells at the cost of production.
In my opinion when it is possible to secure the data. People often need to share secrets such as passwords or keys to access some service or server.

What do you do when you find 40,000 secret voting machine files on the Web?
To work is where I go (59). You won't meet a lot of people like me because when I started (1981) there were way fewer programmers than today plus some became obsolete, some became managers, and some got burned out. So the chances of meeting someone like me if you started in the past decade is not high. This of course makes it hard to decide how much age discrimination there is as it's hard to quantify, unlike gender for example. For me I got this job based on a manager from a previous job needing here what he already knew I could do.

Most of the "harms" of screen time disappear when adjusted for things like socio-economic status: http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/screen-time-for-kids-is-... http://daily.jstor.org/screentime-feminist-issue. Basically, like most parenting advice, exhortations to limit kids' access to screens is based on pseudo-science and old wives' tales. It should not be taken seriously.
Yeah I agree. I stupidly said "cables and chargers" when I just meant lightning cables. I haven't had a charger fail on me in any noticeable way. I've never bought a new USB charger because I have so many others lying around that can fill in for a pinch, but I've never considered looking for a third-party laptop brick adapter when needing to replace a lost one.
The problem with "curing depression" as a whole is that it's a complex syndrome with multiple causes, and our understanding of the brain is very primitive at this point.

I kind of think that many recreational psychedelics are both over-hyped by advocates and over-demonized by naysayers. Recreational experiences are fine and dandy, but I haven't seen much evidence so far that serotonergics do anything for depression. MDMA for PTSD remains experimental (worth a study I'm sure though).

One psychedelic is an exception: the observation that ketamine actually rapidly helped some depressed patients has sparked a whole lot of research in the last decade, has led many to question the whole monoamine hypothesis behind current depression treatment, and may lead to non-psychedelic treatments that work better (or at least on a different subset) than SSRIs. (http://www.economist.com/news/science-and-technology/2170865...).

So, if you are a fan of the psychedelic experience and want to try something a bit out of the medical norms to alleviate depression, the ketamine clinic has the most medically backed potential at the moment, in my opinion (although I'll add that from what I understand ketamine clinic treatment is not at all similar to recreational usage as the dosage is much less). Alternatively, you could wait for the non-psychedelic versions or even rather unrelated derivatives (mentioned above) to progress, that for all we know might actually be better in the end. As the Economist article rightly alludes to, the brain is a seriously complex organism, and science has not reached a neat simple conclusion about depression yet.
Very nice UI and overall idea, but I can't see any competition.

How to Steer Clear of Office Gossip
I'm afraid there's no simple shortcut to knowing what the future will bring. The study of history and politics is a lifelong endeavor. Start perhaps with the Old Testament and then Plutarch's Lives of the Noble Greeks and Romans.

If you want a shortcut, the only one that works is to find someone whose knowledge and judgment you can trust. That could be a celebrity commentator, or it could be your father. Plumb the depths of their knowledge by asking questions, and challenging the answers, and (here's the hard part) if they prove themselves worthy, make the decision to trust their recommendation even if your emotions tell you to vote the other way.
True. As a workaround you can bridge your feature branch workflow to Kiln reviews by using the kiln extension locally with the push command to attach the changesets to a review, as in:

hg push --review -r [REV|BOOKMARK|BRANCH]

Theoretically. The extension seems to be broken with respect to hg 3.8 and with the Kiln API itself.
Chinese reportedly use APAS-89/APAS-95 system docking adapters (jointly developed by Americans and Russians) so they be able to dock with currently used Soyuz spacecraft in principle. They should also be legacy compatible with new International Docking System Standard (IDSS).

Emphasis on principle. Until they confirm that their intent is to be compatible and some testing is done to verify it, I don't think anyone wants to dock.
Absolutely wrong. Having a manned station is a boon for the research taking place. Without a station anyone wanting to do research like the packed bed or the docking and refueling experiments would require the investigating institution to design and launch a vastly more complicated automated satellite or to rely on short manned missions that would have more competition for space and time. Instead it's much easier to package an experiment and send it to the station which has a lot of equipment to support experiments and humans that can troubleshoot and modify experiments.

As for studying long term space flight the only thing it really doesn't provide a model for is radiation which we can model on the ground pretty well. You still get the other health impacts from microgravity that we're still trying to figure out how to effectively combat.

There is no point to wild speculation about Russia invading the Baltic states at some future date when the possibility of war with Russia exists RIGHT NOW over Syria and the allegations of cyberwarfare from Hillary Clinton and the current administration.

> I think objectively it's hard to argue that "item != market.end()" is superior to "iter.hasNext()"

Until you realize the purpose of the weird syntax in the former.

Namely: you can write algorithms where an iterator is a drop-in replacement for a simple loop through all items in an array via pointer arithmetic, if you write it to take a start and an end iterator as templates.

Plus said algorithm can take sub-ranges instead of requiring it to loop through all items.

I thought c++ iterators were very strange for many years until I understood this and other rationales.

That's my experience. I started doing TDD more than 10 years ago, and it took me about a year to fully make the switch from test-after to test-first programming. I regularly try experiments with different personal code bases.

If you're arguing from personal experience, that your code ends up just the same either way, good for you. But I suspect you're arguing from theory here.
