>But 1-on-1 advising doesn’t scale.

In the right market, it doesn't have to scale. I know some wealthy people (in NYC) who have dropped a lot of money to get their kids into Ivy League schools. It is a must for those people and I've seen them drop high dollar for application advice and prep. With any kind of success, the same people get referred over and over again in the same circles.

As an aside, I loosely know someone who went to prison for a white collar crime. He too hired a high dollar consultant (former prison officer, IIRC) to advise him on how to prepare for, adjust to and survive in prison.

Of course consulting to wealthy people isn't passive, but the return on effort is hard to beat, once you're in the right referral circle.

Airbitz to Leverage US JOBS Act to Raise Funding for Expansion
Since you said flights were so cheap I got a bit curious and did a search for a 7 day trip (admittedly from the airport near, which is small). I was not expecting the drastic difference in prices there though.

Some of those flights are ridiculously cheap though so you were right.
Is this going to help Airbitz raise funds?
It goes far beyond just being easy to get along with. He actually seemed pretty nice when I met him in 2005. But this is about demanding blind disobedience, accepting his authority, not tolerating any criticism (or advice), and apparently even using psychological pressure to force people to sign an NDA.

I suspect that the people who left Wikileaks did and still do agree with the original cause, but not with the cult of personality that Assange seems to have created around it.
Agreed. But its a bit expensive too.
Yup, I always pay off my credit card in full each month, and I earn Frequent Flyer points (especially on AmEx). I've earned enough for multiple Round The World tickets. Those are worth far more than any small annual fees I paid on the cards.

And in the event that your card is stolen, a credit card is always better than a debit card, because then money isn't stolen from your own personal bank accounts.

Using an addon like NoScript it's possible to selectively enable javascript per domain. When a website doesn't work without js I am forced to decide whether it's worth enabling js for this site. Very often I decide it's not worth it and I never use that site again.

Exactly. Submitting tokens via GET requests (as is necessary for an emailed token) should be handled in the same way as POST (POST-redirect-GET): the resource which validates the token should not be the one that presents the "password reset" form.

> There is no reason to favor individuals investing into an unproductive investment (property) over productive investments (stocks and bonds).

I beg to differ. I think that real estate, like farming, has critical societal benefits that are worthwhile to develop and maintain.

Namely, it is very difficult to raise a family of four in a mutual fund. Investing in a home may is absolutely "productive."

See, there are significant societal benefits to home ownership that you are not considering. For example:

1. A paid off home is a social safety net against homelessness for an entire family and many of their social circles. Even if all of them are unemployed, all of them have a roof over their heads.

2. A paid-off home frees up cash flow. It allows the owner to divert his earnings into other activities or investments or reduce the amount he has to earn monthly.

3. Real estate can be borrowed against. Try that with stocks. If you are an entrepreneur, your home is likely the asset you will use to acquire bank financing for your business.

4. With unskilled / low-skilled jobs vanishing left and right, homebuilding is one of the few markets which still relies entirely on a giant low-skilled workforce. It's one of the few sectors that can keep a lot of people productively employed. I think there are valid arguments against stimulating homebuilding to reduce unemployment among low-skill workers, but there is nevertheless a societal logic here.

5. In a time when wealth is centralizing as never before, investments in real estate distributes wealth locally. I think there are valid arguments against public policy to distribute wealth, but there is a societal logic here.

6. Finally: taxing a home is very counterproductive to the well-being of the middle class and the poor. I'm sure in Germany the interest on a mortgage isn't tax deductible as you say, but I'd also guess that steps are taken to refund the property taxes for the lower classes. Otherwise you simply tax the poor out of their homes - a form of confiscation.

I think there's a lot of sense in NOT taxing one's first home, at least not if it's below a certain reasonably high value. All things considered, home ownership is empowering. A second home or income-generating rental property is a different story, but one's domicile should be unconfiscatable by the state.

Life in prison without the option of parole. Or, if the murder was caused by something like a psychotic episode or drug withdrawal, therapy in a closed facility.
It's very easy to blame the other side for things when it fits a narrative, but your second example link is most notably missing a shred of evidence that "the left" (what does that even mean? Lumping in Communists and the Green Party, too?) is responsible. I agree with you that behaviors in this election have been concerning, but taking a victim stance and just blindly pointing at a side is probably most concerning of all because it isn't really refutable despite your edit.
The more I've tried to learn about issues, the more I've learned that they are often very complicated & require a lot of research. I feel this is to hard & time consuming for the average citizen. Electing people to represent your interests makes more & more sense to me every day.

I do wish they were more open & transparent though in an easy to understand & honest method. Unfortunately it seems that is very difficult for them to do.
The use of Rekindle is ... interesting.
I don't get why that's a great argument rather than a silly word game. It's legal for the State to do plenty of stuff that it's not legal for private citizens to do.

This is at best an argument against having poorly-thought-out laws like "Anyone who intentionally kills another loses his head", not one against the death penalty in general.

Italy has lifetime prison for the equivalent of first-degree murder, though actually after 30 years you can get parole and after 20 years you can get out during the day for work ("semilibertà"). Lifetime without parole is only given in combination with mafia crimes.

But it's very rarely the case that someone gets lifetime with parole, as your penalty is reduced by 1/3 if you are okay with having your sentence decided by the judge right at the preliminary hearing. In that case you can get 30 years for first-degree murder, with parole after 20 years and semilibertà after 15 years.

This doesn't apply if you are declared "totally mentally incapable". In that case you don't get a normal sentence, instead you are subject to involuntary treatment which could possibly last for life.

Agreed. I'm not a Trump "supporter", but I am also not easily swayed by what the media has to say.

Whenever I attempt to clarify my understanding of what he's said with what the media said he said I'm shot down, laughed at or receive weird looks. People want to believe the news.

Here's a junk Bronze HMO with 50% coinsurance and $5,500 per person deductible in Albany at over $16,000/yr: https://nystateofhealth.ny.gov/individual/searchAnonymousPla...

I am sticking to the major carriers as I'm skeptical of the networks these small no-name providers have. But even if I browse all carriers, the cheapest platinum plan is $20,000/year: https://nystateofhealth.ny.gov/individual/searchAnonymousPla...

Subsidies - let's say you pull $70,000 your first year. Your subsidies will be $4,000 per year, so the platinum plan is still $16,000/yr net. After-tax on $70k is $54,000. That means your healthcare premiums alone are 30% of your post-tax income even with the subsidy! That means only $3,150/mo remains for your rent, transportation, food, utilities, etc...
The media's extreme hate for Trump? They used to love him. He was, and still is, great for ratings. And his free media attention is a big part of why he won the primaries. But he keeps saying increasingly shocking, vile and dangerous things, and it's the people working for the media, as well as everybody else (even people from his own party) who are getting extremely disgusted with him.

Don't paint this as if it's just the media. It's Trump.

Great question! YouTube.

A comment on an upload of Seventh Wonder's The Great Escape[0] led me my discovering Shadow Gallery's First Light[1], which I enjoyed almost as much. (Almost. SW's track, based on Henry Martinson's 'Aniara' poetic cycle is, in my opinion, at another level. Martison was awarded a Nobel prize for his work but unfortuntely commited suicide as a result of fierce criticism against this decision).

How about the violence at Trump rallies towards protesters and journalists? Or the case of Trump supporters beating a homeless Hispanic man, about which Trump noted "my supporters are very passionate"?

Let's not pretend that there hasn't been violence associated with Trump's campaign.

Edit: responding to the claim that there has been nothing on the right compared to the left. Not trying to excuse the behavior of the left by arguing who is worse.
var's function scope is a feature! You don't have to place variable declarations in the header! (they are hoisted) Placing the var declarations where they are used makes the code easier to understand.

The point of constructor functions is not having to write new. So classes does nothing besides syntactic sugars over the prototype system, witch actually makes it more complicated and the code harder to maintain.

Async programming is hard, but not because of callbacks. Promises is just a wrap around callbacks, witch just adds complexity and more boilerplate. It will get better with async/await but I will still prefer simple callbacks.

Arrow functions are very nice for one liners, but will ruin your code if you use them everywhere instead of named functions. You should always name your closures, then it's easier to debug and lift them out.
Comparing the Netherlands to the entirety of the USA is just weird. What are the approval ratings in New York state for instance? That is closer in population to the Netherlands (and potentially more rural & thus more conservative but still likely closer).

On most day-to-day reality issues (for same sex couples or anyone else) local norms are probably much more important and I can assure you there are lots of parts the United States that have 90% approval rates for same sex marriage.

So if we are discounting the legal perspective (which just as a personal opinion, I wish the US federal law was more progressive), cherry-picking public opinion to match the more progressive parts of the sample seems like the US comes out about the same.
That's what zeronet is for.
17; that was in 1918. They quickly increased the electoral threshold to 75% of a seat then. Then, in 1933 when there were 14 parties in parliament again, they increased it to 100%. After that, it has always hovered around 10 parties, and it's still one of the lowest electoral thresholds in the world; most countries have it at 5%-10% of the total vote.
For motorists, over-engineering is how the engines worth buying are those which are expected to last 10 years even though they are only warranted for five years.

It's the way many bridges having a posted weight limit of 10tons can handle a 12ton truck without incident.

If you go to all the trouble of actually engineering something to begin with, might as well include some effort into making it stand the test of time while performing beyond expectations. One of the most fundamental features of true engineering is a "margin of safety".

Traditionally this is what increases the chances of your product having that most useful feature; "worth buying".

Texas is definitely cheaper than NY. However, Texas has been approved for one of the biggest premium increases for 2017, but their numbers have not yet been released (they will in a few days). You should anticipate at least a 30% increase in your wife's premiums, unfortunately.
You might as well use babel and then you can use async/await which makes code way more readable.
JS has been focused on event handling types of problems while python and perl were used for many other types of problems. You can build a GUI with R, but it wasn't made for it.
Based on what? That someone who doesn't like Republicans must be from the "other team" without any other possibility remotely existing?

How about instead of asking us to refute you, please prove your accusation against "the left," specifically for the North Carolina example that you feel is clear. I'm eager to hear your evidence that an entire side of the political spectrum was responsible for the act.

Oh, come on, indeed.
There are some well founded reasons to be skeptical about this at first glance, until you realize that we are moving toward a world where hardware supports having CPUs and GPUs in the same address space (and the support is there on some mobile devices and HSA-supporting desktops). Expanding support for these traditional VM techniques to use the hardware to its fullest only makes sense.
This creates a strong incentive to unfairly convict by lowering the perceived damage of wrongly convicting someone as someone else who may potentially be seemd as more likely to be good may be saved.
Caught in the act isn't a clear cut thing. Witnesses have been known to be wrong. In fact, identification of people you don't know is a very tricky thing. I read an article recently about a man in AZ that was identified twice as the perp in robberies, and even though he had an alibi for both, the prosecutor ruined his life (lost job, drained bank account, divorce). The problem was, he looked amazingly like the perp (there was video).

Had he not had a job with video showing he was there, he would most certainly have been convicted of those to robberies.

If this had been a capital murder case, he could have been convicted on eyewitness testimony. Wrongly.

Thanks for taking the time to put this together. So, as I understand it, a simplified summary of Part D:

* There are a number of plans provided by private companies available under Medicare Part D.

* The government pays certain rates for these plans.

* The private companies negotiate the prices they pay with the drug companies.

I'm purposely omitting details as I want to make sure I'm understanding the overall picture.

If this is the case, I can see how it phrasing such as "the government can't negotiate prices" is true but misleading. True in that the government doesn't work directly with the drug companies so there is no negotiation, and misleading because it implies that there is such direct contact.

Is that fair?

This has been useful. I appreciate the time you've taken.
>With the landlord living just two streets away they're sometimes inclined to take things personal and show up on your doorstep.

Or worse: They will try to fix/repair things themselves, instead of hiring an actual professional for the job. My landlord, a brain surgeon, won't hire anybody for anything. Instead, he will come over himself and try to fix things he clearly has no clue about. Last time he cut himself trying to fix the parquet floor, ended up bleeding all over the place. I had to repaint some of the walls and the floor is still in a shoddy state.

Is this the first time that this has happened? A severely insecure device leading to a recall.
All the attacks mentioned here seem to be of the following shape:

1. Let's somehow get a record that points at a host controlled by us into many resolvers (by compromising a host or by actually inserting a record).

2. Let's prolong the time this record is visible to many people by denying access to authoritative name servers of a domain.

(1) is unrelated to caching-past-end-of-ttl, so you need to be able to do (1) already. (2) just prolongs the time (1) is effective and required you to be able to deny access to the correct DNS server. Is it really that much easier to deny access to a DNS server than it is to redirect traffic to that DNS server and supply bogus reponses?
Isn't it possible this is all bought and paid for by the opposing party. You shouldn't believe everything you see on TV.

Well, there are methods that can help to avoid raising "kamikaze kids". None is a silver bullet and kids have a lot of variability by themselves, but still:

- Start early to forbid things. My third don't talk yet but understands very well that I do not agree with him smashing his elder sister in the head with anything he found around. When this happens and I'm near enough to react immediately, the little thing will be slapped back, softly but enough for him to know that it is annoying.

- Be more often in the calmer mode than in the exiter mode with them. I need to work more on this because when I get home and hug the little third, I'm too quick to tickle his belly and throw him in the air. He it nice to sit often together and read a book or play lego for a while. This show them.

- Pick only a few rules and hold on them. I make no drama if one of them did not wash them teeth for one night. However, there's never a toy on the eating table. It happened to me to have forbidden something but thought the second after that it should have been ok. Then you can't revert easily. Less rules, but enforced, makes kid life safer than thousand of useless "be careful".
> But much more importantly, it has a huge overfitting problem.

Exactly. I was thinking about how easy it would be to create a model that accurately predicted the last 100 years' election results that would likely fall flat on its face in the next.
