> When he started chlorine and barrel bombing civilians?

I would suggest to you that the world is more complicated than the soundbites vomited to you by the as of lately, largely discredited media and Obama administration.

The accusations against Assad change as necessary. It used to be Sarin, until that was disproved, for example. Bottom line, they just really want Syria to be destroyed like Iraq and Libya were, and will make up accusations as necessary. Did he drop some barrel bombs (home made bombs)? Probably. Did some of them hit civilians? Probably. The US has killed it's share of civilians also, hasn't it?

You don't know anything, but you want a nuclear war with Russia. Seems appropriate.

3 Perfect Ways to Respond When Someone Asks to Pick Your Brain
It's my growing opinion that the aggregation of personal data (and "metadata") needs to be regulated. Individual sample points are fine, but analyzing the entire crowd all the time is too intrusive and should constitute a warrant-requiring search of private effects.

Maybe we need something like HIPPA for personal data. If you start fiddling with stuff that invades privacy of individuals, things should get touchy and messy legally. I have an expectation of privacy in public while in crowds and during my personal travels.

From my experience, that's the most common fee extension. Thanks!

I saw that donuts has a test EPP endpoint to try nomulus. I will probably connect to it soon for some integration testing.

My only issues when using this extension:

* It's super flexible. I have to guess if a fee is an EAP fee based on the description, for example. (Registries haven't standardised on anything.)

* Querying for all operations * terms is very verbose.

* The extension itself has multiple versions. We support fee-0.5 - fee-0.8.
I gather that some of the lumpiness is caused by imperfections in the strength and time synchronization of the implosion. Ideally, you'd see spheres. There are also bumps caused by flanges, ports, etc in the casing.

Well that's a fantastic way of interpreting the email thread and flipping my comments.

During a debate in 2008, she said marriage was between a man and a woman. So no, she wasn't lying in 2008 -- nor did I ever imply such a thing -- that was likely her true sentiment.

While you might be right, that does not follow from the structure of the sentence:

DigitalOcean may share your information with contracted service providers if sharing your information is necessary to provide a Service you have requested, as part of a joint sales promotion or to pass sales leads to one of our distribution partners, or to keep you up-to-date on product announcements, software updates, special offers or other information.

Note the comma after the Service you have requested, and the leading or. I assume your interpretation is probably what they want to say, but it is not what they do say, if I understand correctly what sale leads can be here.

Also note that https://www.privacyshield.gov/article?id=My-Rights-under-Pri... makes no statement in that regard, that sharing with third parties is forbidden. Only that you can ask to be informed (how nice!). Mixing issues here, the privacy shield seems to be a horrible framework for EU-customers, while the DO privacy policy is probably alright. Besides, it is not like DO has much information they could share.

Where do you draw the line on what constitutes journalism? Are politics bloggers journalists? Are bloggers who occasionally talk about politics journalists? Are people who livetweet a news event that they're involved in acting as journalists?

How do you safeguard the political independence of the licensing of journalists? How do you ensure that a future government doesn't abuse the licensing regulations to suppress political criticism?

In the US, how do you reconcile this with the first amendment? How can you justify silencing people because they lack the 'correct' qualifications? If the only restriction is on the title 'journalist', what stops people from calling themselves a blogger while doing exactly the same things that a journalist does?
Q: Was the police technique of “stop-and-frisk” found unconstitutional?

A: The practice is not unconstitutional, but a judge ruled in 2013 that New York City’s stop-and-frisk program was carried out in a manner that violated the U.S. Constitution.

Airline flight path scheduling is a complicated process where wind and weather patterns are only one aspect of the route taken. Most trans atlantic and trans pacific routes operates with well known "highways" that are strictly adhered to. Apart from weather/wind, load factors, crew certification, craft certification, traffic congestion are some of the factors that existing automated flight route programs already factor. There is a youtube documentary that details the flight scheduling process. Additionally, for the more interested airliners.net's forums has a large trove of information talking about the same topic.

> Unlike require(), however, import() returns a Promise, allowing (but not requiring) the loading of the underlying module to be performed fully asynchronously.

Promises, afaik, are always asynchronous. Maybe the spec changed (I'd welcome it for sure) but last I read it, resolve or rejection handlers must be called in the next tick. Even if something can be executed immediately, it'll still wait till next tick. This obviously means there's always a wait associated with promises, hence they are always asynchronous.

I wish this article would go into more detail on what the edge cases are with the unambiguous module syntax – I thought that was an unusually elegant solution in this community.

What about BitTorrent? It also heavily uses SHA1 - basically for everything from computing infohash to data integrity checks.
Read the article and it's even better. With gems like

"The UN Declaration on Human Rights talks about citizens being able to live without state-level interference, yet here the UN is today, delisting and blocking a small company because we criticized their support for Julian Assange"

Which is a little odd form of argument, not only because it's an unusually highbrow line for a dating agency to take, but also because it doesn't make sense as the UN isn't really "state-level" and the UNDHR doesn't use that word either.

Almost like the person drafting it had interference by "state-level actors" on the brain. Wonder if anyone tweeted something which also used that rather rather arcane term to their 3.7M followers recently?
I'm surprised we don't have live data for this.

We updated the title from “DigitalOcean now has the right to give your private information to third parties”, which breaks the guidelines by editorialized. Titles belong to the content, not to the submitter, so that HN readers can decide what they'd like to read and form their own opinions.
There is some OK stuff in here but there is also a lot of codswallop and it's far too verbose, eg. make sure you learn Node, be sure to read this set of books. "But everything old is new again, and ignore fads!" It's worse than verbose and of dubious quality, it's internally inconsistent.

That's quite unfair; you didn't mention that the projects also include:

That's an enormous chunk of what I'd call "the best open source tools". And I hardly think jQuery needs to "push" its brand on developers!

Wait, are you actually defending Assad?

EDIT: just want clarify that I don't necessarily disagree that Iraq and Libya were disasters, and that the Syrian situation seems to have devolved into a no good options situation, but that in no way excuses Assad's human rights violations.

systemd DOES NOT solve the PID file race. What is does is poll a cgroups proc file that lists the PIDs in a cgroup, then iteratively calls kill on those PIDs. But this is _just_ as racy as a regular PID file. I explain more here, with links to the relevant bits of code:

https://lwn.net/Articles/677671/

Long story short, Linux does not offer a way to atomically send a signal to a cgroup, and so there's no way for systemd to reliably kill errant (or worse, malicious) processes that keep forking. Worse, last time I checked systemd had a bug in their read-iterate-kill loop that could lead to an infinite loop. I also detail that issue in the above LWN thread.

If you _carefully_ parse Pottering's statements regarding systemd, a charitable interpretation would be that he never claimed systemd solved the PID race for uncooperative software. Unfortunately, everybody believed and most people still believe that it does. Afterall, there was never a problem with PID races with _cooperative_ software, so it was natural to assume that what systemd was bringing to the table was a solution to uncooperative processes.

That doesn't mean systemd isn't slightly better then `killall [process name pattern]`. But in security an inherently broken solution isn't any solution at all.
I agree that setter properties are often a code smell, but getter properties are nice for calculated fields. As a very simple example, consider the following (C#):

public Circle(int radius) { Radius = radius; }
public int Radius { get; }
public int Diameter => Radius * 2;
}
>They're coming on thick and strong with attempts to discredit the source because the source is seriously lacking in credibility

the way they could do this correctly is to contradict assange's claims with evidence... do that, and if their evidence is valid, assange's claims collapse.

but they aren't doing that; they can't do that.

here is the recipe upcoming from the clinton campaign:

1. attack source

2. escalate attacks on source

3. deny claims of source categorically

4. deny context of facts that source puts forth

5. deny specifics of facts that source puts forth

6. deny involvement of high level people

7. throw scapegoats

8. deny witting involvement of high level people

9. admit item numbers 3 through 8, sequentially, as separate steps

10. media "loses attention" of the story before reaching the point where high level people admit that the allegations of the source are correct

this cycle will take a while, maybe a year or so.

Dear Digital Ocean,

Thank you for your transparency in this change. I received an email notifying me of it. The policy itself is in a public repository - allowing me to see exactly what changed. (Though to be honest, a link to the diff would be a nice-to-have next time.)

I appreciate your forthrightness. After evaluating the changes further, I will be making my decision about whether to continue making use of your services - as I'm sure you would expect.

Sincerely,

A Customer

In other words, can you write a specification saying that if you’re going to have an office, the noise should not be any greater than so much? What are acceptable noise standards in a home, in a factory, in a concert hall? I wrote those.

I like this guy. In a London open plan office in 2010 I measured background noise and it was above legal limits for a workplace. I mentioned it to management, nobody cared. However, I think the whole notion of 'offices should be quiet' - although valid - is now almost an anachronism.

Well, so question (and this is an honest one): suppose Russia or China hacked into government facilities and then leaked information that influenced the election.

Do you see that as okay?

Next, suppose Russia or China supported an independent actor who did the same.

Is that okay?

Now, remember, these are foreign actors with their own agendas. They may have very good reason to, say, doctor the releases or groom them in a way that best serves their interests.

So, on the one hand, one could argue that information should be free, transparency is important, etc, etc. Ultimately, they're doing everyone a service.

On the other, there is a legitimate question about nations and foreign actors meddling in a sovereign state's electoral process, and the precedent that sets regarding international norms and established codes of conduct.

It's not a black-and-white issue by any means.
The Reddit and Twitter trolls are terrifying. But are you saying all (or even most) of the >40% of Americans that will vote for Trump are as bad as them?

Assange's apparent dislike of Hillary has been exaggerated way out of proportion. From Assange himself just over a week ago:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6mARUrPtXk&feature=youtu.be...

"There’s been a lot of misquoting of me and WikiLeaks publications. In this particular case, the misquoting has to do with that we intend, or I intend, to harm Hillary Clinton or that I don’t like Hillary Clinton. All those are false. They come about as a result it seems of this campaign and those who are trying to personalize our publications."
"I fail to see why in an era where people are starting to expect to live until their 80s they should stop working at 65."

Cause there's more to life than work? For most people, vacations are discouraged, and there's lots of stuff that people are told to "wait until retirement" to do. If they're never going to retire, when are they going to do stuff that isn't job?

She doesn't benefit from people believing Assange is a paedo, which I don't think any mainstream media source has bothered reporting as potentially true. She benefits much more from nobody talking about him at all, and focusing on all the nasty stuff coming out from basically everywhere except Wikileaks about the man she's running against (but apparently not comparable dirt on Pence; wouldn't she focus more effort on framing her opponent's running mate than some foreign journalist who's already got the not insignificant matter of a Swedish prosecutor wanting to charge him with rape hanging over him?)

Just because a few Clinton supporters on Twitter who really don't like Assange think the allegation is worth crowing about and the Daily Kos has no journalistic standards and will print anything if it's a scoop doesn't mean Clinton is anything but a little worse off if this news cycle is about Assange.
