You cannot prove she's pretended or pandering. But let's play a game where we have proof she's merely accommodating gay marriage advocacy, but personally doesn't actually agree with it.

Which is the better political bet? To vote for the person who gives you what you seek? Or vote for the person who states, without reservation that they are opposed to gay marriage, support states right to unwind the Obergefell ruling, and nominate socially conservative judges like Antonin Scalia who happened to vote against Obergefell, the very ruling that grants you that which you claim to seek.

You're simply not credible on this. You're willfully delusional or ignorant on the topic. You have grossly and very obviously mistaken the forest for the trees.
Wow, talk about too little too late. This kind of late to the party strategy is why startups will always be needed to lead innovation.

The irony is the highest ranking person at AmEx who really understands this is probably a pretty smart guy who had to fight and lobby for years to rally enough support to make this happen.

Nope. ETOPS allows planes to operate up to 180 minutes away from an emergency landing field, almost 10x the world-record glide distance quoted in this article.

Good point: there are reasons to view Hillary as the unacceptable choice (not that I am saying these reasons are convincing reasons or not).

One benefit can be that you access / pay with Amex points, which I think Stripe doesn't offer.

Also I've seen Amex offer login/auth verification, where you a service can verify you as the actual Amex user, and possibly trust you more that way.
Thanks for the tip. I have just ordered a PCB where I really care about the silkscreen from DiryPCBs. We'll see how it turns out (given they pretty much pride themselves in not caring about the quality so much). If it's not up to scratch I will give PCBway a go.

WhitneyLand is correct.
> But considering the amount of collaboration effort it took to build this (fb said they collaborated with multiple companies in different timezones), wouldn't it be better to spend a little more time understanding npm's codebase and get it patched ?

Better for you? You know that open source work is free labor, right? Why should they prefer to spend weeks trying to understand undocumented, opaque and "clever" code (much of which has never been refactored) when they can start from scratch with a codebase of their own design?

What I'm asking is, what is the value to them? Or to you (assuming you ever do open source)? Unless you are getting paid for your OS work, you're under no obligation to do things any way other than what works for you.

In git you can edit past commits and rebase, which completely destroys historical data and traces of the rebase. This can be very useful, e.g. for keeping a frequently-committed-to branch "clean" and informative by squashing commits, for removing accidentally committed sensitive credentials, etc.

Mercurial, on the other hand, is architecturally set up in a way that considers the repo history to be a somewhat "sacred" truthful account.

You still get the same flexibility as git if/when you need the above mutability: it's not 100% immutable, it supports local rebases, and also global mutablity via "phases" - see Marcin's post on this. In an absolute worst case scenario you can also coordinate reclones of a repo of course, but generally speaking the point is that immutability is "on by default".

Creator of Lodash here. From my experience the foundation is a pretty chill, hands off, non-profit. I sought out and voluntarily joined the Dojo Foundation early in Lodash's development (~2013). At the time the Dojo Foundation was the only JS foundation I knew of that was open to outside projects (the jQuery Foundation was really only for jQuery projects back then). Eventually the Dojo Foundation and the jQuery Foundation merged. It was great! Regardless of the name the foundation has proven valuable. Whether it's CLA management, PR bots, conduct reviews, representation at TC39, help with trademarks, licenses, legal, etc. they've always been friendly and more than happy to help. When possible they also hold events to educate and encourage new open source contributors which is pretty cool!

Hm, I would have thought the opposite - if you're a private group where everyone in the group trusts the moderators to act in good faith (or has a reasonable alternative if they don't trust the moderators), vague guidelines let you avoid being rules-lawyered, because there's nothing to be rules-lawyered, while being clear enough for participants who are also acting in good faith. (For a government, you don't have a reasonable alternative, and it's much more important to have checks and balances against one part of the government not acting in good faith.)

Whether GitHub is too big for "people have a reasonable alternative" is debatable, yes. But HN itself has vague guidelines (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html), such as "Anything that good hackers would find interesting," and it seems to work pretty well in practice: people know the moderators and have a sense of whether they trust them to act in good faith.

The last paragraph introduces a question interesting to me.

Is opening up communication channels responsible for social conflict?

Is Mark right or wrong in his last paragraph.

I've always assumed he was wrong but the premise should be examined explicitly.

Naturally I don't claim that the radio or newspapers invented the social conflict. I am saying they could be responsible for the actual incidence of conflict itself.

If you picture each person as a collection of memes, then;

> The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. - H.P Lovecraft

The potential for conflict in the individual is not resolved with conflict for the most part. We do know the more intellectual among us tend to be more neurotic, perhaps another hint at the essential lovecraftian truth.

That means barefaced conflict is only possible when an individual meets another and communicates. It is then latent contradictions become evident.

Far from the notion that communication acts as a meditator and leads to peace, the truth might be the opposite.

tldr; if we don't talk to each other, everything will be fine!

The Real Issues Going to Mars
Physically sending a space ship to Mars isn't the issue. It is life support. Astronauts lose something like 2% of their bone density per 30 days on average in zero gravity and they also have serious issues containing and mitigating CO2 levels in space.

Rocket ships are cool - but life support is the real issue.

Phabricator also supports hosting mercurial but there are some rough edges. Its need to do some basic monitoring of the wire protocol (primarily to determine whether actions are read/write for ACL and cluster resolving) have uncovered that interpreting the underlying wire protocol is difficult and challenging [0]. I wonder if Kiln or others have similar issues? I would guess that this sort of problem is one of the reasons hosted tooling around hg falls behind git even though touting a great extension API (aside from the large gap in user base).

- More powerful? I thought SQLite is more constrained than other SQL databases. e.g: No stored procedures. Powerful? how? compared to exactly what?

Often open sourcing a project requires a lot of work. If it uses licensed technology it may require some money too. And sometimes the engineering is uniquely tuned to the context in which the project was developed to the point that it makes no sense, for example the code contains dependencies on specific service providers like hosting companies or CDN's or expects unique hardware configurations.
In two years there will be too many tools and people will start complaining of Rust fatigue, don't worry.

If you follow their link (https://scholar.google.com/scholar_case?case=153564529459943...) the pertinent quote is

> "[...] that under the First and Fourteenth Amendments criminal laws in this area are constitutionally limited to hard-core pornography.[2] I shall not today attempt further to define the kinds of material I understand to be embraced within that shorthand description; and perhaps I could never succeed in intelligibly doing so. But I know it when I see it, and the motion picture involved in this case is not that.

> [2] It is too late in the day to argue that the location of the line is different, and the task of ascertaining it easier, when a state rather than a federal obscenity law is involved. [...]"

So they seem to have many definitions of hard-core pornography, which are complicated by State and Federal law covering the ground twice, but are refusing to talk details of either because they have rejected the film being hard-core pornography in the broadest sense.

This seems reasonable, and a way a judge can stop some external group wasting public time and funds by needlessly going over the minutia of the laws.

Githubs use appears to be diametrically opposite to what they paraphrase.

What do you consider to be non-trivial? Seems subjective. Exaggerating here, but obviously a git hub project that runs fusion reactor software is certainly non-trivial, but what about a small project that does/looks simple, but really takes a fair amount of effort to make it work? Like a triple AAA game is non-trivial compared to a breakout clone, but a breakout clone is still somewhat non-trivial (graphics, sound, "simulated" physics, GUI, gameplay logic etc.).

> Whether GitHub is too big for "people to have a reasonable alternative" is debatable, yes

Here is a (likely incomplete) list of GitHub competitors:

https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/GitHosting

AFAIK bitbucket and GitLab are the serious contenders, both with large, serious users and projects.

Edit: By this I mean, no GitHub is not too big for "people to have a reasonable alternative"
If that's true you can hardly blame him. What a crazy world we live in with so little respect for human life.

> I'm usually all for paranoia when it comes to the police but knowing your identity based on your appearance isn't really a violation of your rights.

It would be one thing if there was some RainMan FBI agent who was the database and could recollect the name, address, declared weight, height, eye color and hair color of half of the population of the United States after meeting them through natural social introductions.

But this is a collection of databases that hundreds or thousands of cops can search through simultaneously without having to know anything about the unidentified person. Recently, it was declared unconstitutional to attach a GPS tracking device to a vehicle without a warrant, yet it's still perfectly acceptable to have a real live person tail another individual in another car without a warrant. The reasons being is that a small police force of say 20 people could in effect virtually tail and track thousands (if their budget allowed them to purchase that many devices) of individuals at once, where physically tracking those individuals is a natural limitation of the capacity of the force. It enforces a burden on the police. Exactly the same rules apply here. If a cop knows a subset of individuals in his or her neighborhood, and then comes across a picture of unidentified person taken during the commission of a crime, and is able to identify that person from memory and develop further proof that the individual in the photo was in fact the one that committed the crime, then they have a good case. If the only way for the cops to identify that person is to look up the identification of the suspect via a highly sophisticated computer algorithm that can check against hundreds of faces per second, then the "capacity" of the force to identify suspects far outweighs the effort the public had to counteract that.

Checks and balances, and all that stuff, don't just apply to the 3 branches, they apply between the citizenry and the powers over them too.
