The process has a few stages. NTAC (GCHQ) approves the issue of a Section 49 Notice ("decrypt or jail"); a Section 49 Notice is issued; and it's then either complied with or not.

Eight Section 49 Notices had been issued up to April 2008. Since then the rate has increased steadily; 37 were issued in 2014/15 (latest year of data).

Eighty-eight were approved to be issued.

Corrugated is only one type. Lots of places around here (Seattle) have metal shingles, and I've never noticed noise when in them in the rain. Perhaps it has to do with how they are mounted and, of course, it rarely rains hard here. It mostly just drips.

Metal roofs are light, long lasting, do not support insects, and don't burn.

Ceramic roofs are very heavy, and as you say, they don't do so well in an earthquake. The house structure has to be designed to support it.

Wood shingles rot, are slippery when moldy, are an ideal habitat for wasps, burn, and generate a demand for old growth cedar (i.e. not sustainable).

A well made flat roof (for your low pitch) should last close to 50 years. They're commonly more expensive but much more durable than pitched roofing.

This may have been true in 2005. It is emphatically not true today.

The biggest story in computing today is mobile and Microsoft has nothing there. Zilch. Nada. They've officially ended development of Windows Phone, they have no OS, and no first-party handsets.

The case for Microsoft making a great browser is as strong today as it's ever been; it's one of the few app platforms with massive global distribution they still have a shot at participating in. Look at Asia and many other ex-US locations, people don't even think of buying PCs, Windows is utterly irrelevant to these people.

CmdTaco was not the segment Apple was aiming for with the iPod.

There are multiple factors addressed in the links I posted, loss of manufacturing jobs, employment opportunities, job quality, etc. I think you are getting hung up on semantics, when I made a fairly general statement, which might have been a little too broad but I don't feel it is an incorrect generalization about the current situation in many Western countries.

Speaking from my experience (note, I'm not even from the US, I'm from Canada) what I said appears to hold true, for example just the other week our finance minister told people get used to the job churn as the employment field has entirely changed. Recent graduates aren't able to pay off their student loans either, and the government as of today (November 1st) is issuing student loan payment halts on incomes below 25,000. On top of that the housing market in Canada is going insane, prices skyrocketing in multiple major cities for detached housing, while interest rates and growth is stagnate. If that's not a sign that things are getting worse, I'm not sure what is. As far as I can tell the news in other Western parts of the world is just as bad.
Well, sort of. You have to trust that the printed ID is unique.
I agree. I've opened Automator with a naive optimism that I can learn it and become more productive. I've been wrong each and every time!
How would they go about accessing it? Presumably people can protect information they deem private. Like their social security number for instance.
Good point. That'd be an issue with any verification system isn't it?

Edit to add: If you can confirm that all of the ids are unique and that the total number of ids are correct, that would go a long way towards verification, along with checking arbitrary receipts against the results, regardless if the ids are pre-printed or printed afterward.

I'd prefer not having any printers involved though. Pre-printed ballots would work just fine and there's one less piece of equipment involved during the actual vote.
I assume you mean this comment? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12819423

The listed special orders were the pretext to $70m, $35m and $105m fines. Doesn't inspire confidence.

It might just be reporting bias, but I couldn't find an example of a special order that wasn't associated with a massive scandal.

I just want to point out I'm not a Trump supporter, in fact I'm in Canada so I cannot vote in the US election. My original comment was just a general observation.
No, they did what any security researcher would do, Google or not. To be honest, their call is a perfect one.

On the one hand, you don't tell anyone other than Microsoft and wait for them to patch as many people as possible while the bug is ACTIVELY being exploited and possibly thousands are getting hacked by the hour.

On the other hand, you tell people, and many are now able to patch it themselves RIGHT NOW, force an update on their machine, not use affected software, and potentially avoid a hack that would've happened if they didn't know.

So yes, it's not black and white, but I think their call of waiting a week was an okay one.

The classic work on this subject is "The Man who Broke Purple", a biography of William Friedman. Friedman is probably the greatest name in cryptanalysis. He changed the field from guessing to crunching. (See page 301 of [1]. That's where modern cryptanalysis began. Explanation at [2].) He was also the founder of the National Security Agency.

Sorry, I don't recall being snippy, but I do recall you were pushing for me to "prove a negative", which is a fallacy. I can't prove Apple is committed to supporting WebAssembly and speak for them. But if you follow their bugzilla, you can see that the

https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=159775

dependencies are getting attention. Note also who is assigned to some of the recent ones: JF Bastien, formerly of Google (long-time PNaCl team member).

I may also have been unwilling to put people I know at Apple, with whom I'd spoken about WebAssembly in person at CurryOn in Prague (July 2015), on the spot. But suffice to say they're keen on WebAssembly and everything looks as on track as it can be, for a stealthy prima-donna company like Apple!

Interix which later became, SFU (Windows Services for UNIX) and then finally SUA (Subsystem for Unix-based Applications) was initially developed in the 90's by Softway Systems, as an optional addon subsystem to the Windows family of OS's.

For the record, it did not ship built-in or as part of the kernel. Even within Microsoft, it seemed the project was in perpetual life-support-mode.

Still, I do feel a small pang of sadness. There was once a time in the early 2000's, where I would have loved to see this chimeral oddity succeed.

Mostly because I wanted to hear what some real experts thought of the evidence presented.
And don't underestimate shipping them!

I think there's a generation of people who, since they've never done it, have no idea how hard it is to ship an executable that will reliably run even across multiple patch levels of what is nominally the same OS. Let alone across different OS versions or even OSes. And then even knowing of crashes that happen on end-user boxes, let alone debugging them, is another pile of suck. And upgrades.

The web browser is a light-years better target, because it lets you run the servers yourself. And you can do things like only have one version deployed at a time! No more trying to make different client versions backwards and forwards compatible with multiple server versions, etc.
You would be correct :)
Why Girls Should Not Give a FUCK About Fitness Industry?
I think it depends on who is speaking: a team is always a plural, so if it's the team behind X, then you use 'we'; if you're speaking as an individual, you use 'I'. (This can get confusing for some projects, if you're speaking in both capacities while being the only team member.)

So it comes down to how much you want your site associated with you personally, versus having its own identity (and associated "team", even if it's just you on the team).

For hobby projects, I generally go with 'I'; for anything I'm asking for money in exchange for a service, I go with 'we'.

If you feel uncomfortable using 'we' instead of 'I', just file a C-corp and get a registered agent. Now there's two of you, and when you're speaking as the corporation, it's a 'we'. (I'd argue it's always a 'we' for the C-corp, though, because again, it's a team, and teams are always plural.)

Of course, I've been known to use language strangely, so make up your own style rules and go with them.
They don't have support for LPDDR4 at all at this point.
Threats of physical violence? Bribes? There are ways to design the system that guarantee that the voter can verify they voted but can't prove who they voted for. No need to keep the UUID secret. It's very desirable to have a system that we can trust even if conditions aren't necessarily antagonistic.

BTW, thanks for engaging in this discussion. It's important and it's helping me rethink through all of this.
>Arguments that wide-scale non-white immigration is detrimental to white societies, that the black-white IQ gap includes a non-zero genetic component, that biological differences exist between men and women, etc. cannot be refuted through rationalism, so we have to resort to other methods to prevent their spread.

The misconception that Trump and his supporters are racist, sexist, bigoted is why people will never understand why Trump supporters support Trump.

And this is the primary reason why no one has been able to stop Trump yet.

You can not stop Trump if you don't understand why people support Trump.

The Mill is far from proven. It's a big idea, but big ideas always look good initially - it's when you get down to the implementation details that most of your revolution in something tends to dry up and just become an evolutionary improvement in performance.
I think all of my banks offer this feature today, but I’ve never used it.

I already have a general idea of my situation, and the few times I’ve needed accurate total figures, it’s always taken longer to identify and adjust for unposted items than to gather the current ledger balances.

This hits the nail on the head in terms of how I think about Apple. They've so consistently set a bar that others are not able to hit, that at some level there just isn't any competition at all in some areas. Some of these things are very very important. Like all of the incredible accessibility work that they do. This level of detail of caring goes unappreciated all the time but is felt every day for many many people.

If we can comment on functionality too (not just UI and design), I would say at least add an option to your text editor to do left/right alignment to support RTL languages.
Why free delivery?
There is this weird belief that being a text format automatically means open, reusable, interoperable and being a binary format automatically means closed, proprietary, opaque.

As counterexamples, here are several binary formats that are very open: ELF, DWARF, PNG, tar, gzip, Ogg and all its subformats, FLAC, JPEG2000.

On the other hand, you have something like OOXML, which while technically open/standardized, is so incredibly complicated that it is extremely difficult to implement well. Just because something is text-based does not make it simple.

From the article you cited:

"Look at some of the uber-successful icons of Silicon Valley / Technology: Larry Ellison, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Larry/Sergey, Eric Schmidt, Andy Groves, John Doerr. Not job hoppers."

Yeah, if I owned the company and/or made millions of dollars a year from it (like all these guys), I probably wouldn't be looking for another job either. (And it's Andy Grove, not Groves.)

Note that this article is written from the point of view of an employer, not an employee. An employer would obviously be thrilled if their employees stuck around for many years, even if the work environment sucked and compensation was below average. It's great for them. Not that great for the employees, though. You shouldn't be more committed to your employer than they are to you (which isn't very much).
