You highlight a kind of social disconnect among a segment of the population that are kind of eternal liberal optimist loyalists that have no problem trusting their parent, the government with any and all sorts of individual rights. It is precisely why some people simply cannot look through or past the notion that the government could somehow not be a benevolent parent that only has our best interest in mind and are thereby more than willing to cede all sorts of responsibilities and rights.

It is the frame of mind behind many different dualistic issues like gun rights, state's rights vs strong central power consolidation, immigration, education, etc.
No. Not two days ago, I listened to a self described white nationalist leader speak at length in his own words. He was not a made up smear, but a real person with real (awful) opinions, who now feels he has kindred spirits at the top of government. So, again, no, "white nationalism" is simply not "mainly a smear used by the MSM".
>This article is a report of findings by US physics professor Mike van Biezen.

That's a very liberal reading of that article. Like most yellow journalism and conspiracy theories, there's always of tinge of truth or credibility. The rest of it dives down into completely contrived fear mongering and conspiracy theories, as well as willfully ignoring the mountain of contradicting evidence to the point the article is trying to make. The professor's finding are a very small, small part of the overall article, and certainly a very small part of their overall narrative.

I agree. However, when people are dissatisfied with the current system they want change not just a different leader. Which IMO is why the president flip flops all the time.

Do you have any data on how well the polls did?

According to FiveThirtyEight, national polls did pretty well, while state polls had more problems - but he doesn't say how many or how bad the problems were.

Theoretically, if a scientific survey says one thing and a reported vote count says another, how do you know which is wrong (or are both wrong)?

Who do you have in mind? Can you share a source (video/article of the speech)?
A large part of the coverage I have seen of Breitbart on mainstream news sources has taken the headlines of some of their overly provocative satire pieces and made the claim that they were reporting those headlines as fact.

As an aside, I think that if we were to nitpick CNN, FOX, or any of the other "real" sources we would find just as much "fake news" as they are claiming exists on alternative news sites. Of course it would be in their interest to discredit those sources when they fear losing viewership to them.

>How is this frightening? Why should we turn a blind eye to a source that continually posts provably fake and completely contrived news stories?

Most of Breitbart's inflammatory-headline stories are based on real scientific studies.

http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2015/12/08/birth-control-makes... cites multiple real university studies.

Also supported by studies conducted by reasonable sources, if you read the articles:

Exaggerated, sure, but it's not fake news by any means. It's biased news, like many other news outlets.

Ad agencies are perfectly free to not associate with them anymore, but calls to mark them as fake news is extremely dangerous and would be a clear case of censorship. I strongly disagree with Breitbart's agenda but there are times when publications like WaPo post stories that are at roughly the same degree of the bias axis as Breitbart, just in the opposite direction.

People just need to treat media sources with a grain of salt. Facebook and Twitter should only ban the websites that are clearly just fake article mills, posting nothing but completely fabricated information.

SlateStarCodex once outlined how you might make a conservative case for dealing with climate change; the Archdruid Report discusses the subject, too. The key is to only argue climate change; it's much easier to persuade people that climate change is an issue, than to persuade them that climate change is an issue and the only solution is Communism. Think cap-and-trade, lasting strategic independence (at least one Iraq hawk drove a Prius), and the irresponsible foreigners fouling up the atmosphere while we do our bit to help...
They would have also gotten what they voted if elections were done away with, and Trump were announced a winner by fiat. That doesn't make it a good system.

There are two problems for them.

1. Unequal distribution of EC votes.

2. State-based winner-take-all distribution of EC votes.

Yes, their concerns would be far more likely to be heard with the elimination of #1, and #2. They can be completely ignored because of #2, and even if they couldn't be, then due to #1, there are better places to focus on.

Under a popular vote system, with the margins for victory as they are, nobody would be able to ignore the rural vote, as a whole. Right now, that is exactly what happens - it is ignored - except in a handful of states (Which, strangely enough, receive an overwhelming amount of federal subsidies - it's no accident that ~75% of farming subsidies go to only 10% of farmers.)
It is not legally a free speech issue. Sure. But it is in fact very, very dangerous. The amount of power that huge tech companies such as Google and Facebook have over people these days is not very far off from the power a government has over people. If they are using that power to silence people they disagree with then that is extremely dangerous. Even if you happen to agree with them this time, you might not in the future. The fact that they are not a government is irrelevant to how dangerous these actions are, considering they have the power to silence millions of people. It is not in any meaningful way comparable to a restaurant owner showing you the door, considering the scale of these networks.
For one thing, come with an open mind. Don't just label it denial just because you disagree with it. Don't force your beliefs upon anybody else.

> I have no particular pro- or anti-union agenda.

Either way, deep down, the discussion really doesn't have anything to do with unions at all. I'm not sure if you simply failed to grasp my comment and thought that attacking my character instead of doing the normal human thing of asking for clarification would lead to helping you understand, or if you are simply a troll and did not care about the subject at all and were just looking for someone to take out your aggressions on.

Either way, HN is not the place for that type of behaviour. I'm not sure what you are getting all emotional about if it is not unions, but whatever it is, it is clearly present and causing you to loose sight of thoughtful and meaningful discussion. Dial that back and maybe we can gain something from this exchange. Something tells me that I'll get another several paragraphs of ad hominems instead, sadly.
What is the logical conclusion of your position if not censorship?

edit: in response to the second part about Buzzfeed, just in this thread there is someone with your stance on this who is advocating for them as a news source. Maybe a coincidence, but I'd say that speaks to it not being a "significantly small" amount.
The "Fake News" story is being pushed by such places as the New York Times, which just recently admitted they do the same thing.

Why does it have to have to do anything with it?
This kind of article is exactly why it's hard to take criticism of Breitbart seriously. People are so offended of having sacred sensibilities offended that they can't see it's satire, a form of reductio ad absurdum at the claim by a feminist academic that women need special treatment in universities and should possibly have segregated classes. The whole point of it is to use demographic quotas, which most conservatives hate, as an argument to prove the absurdity of a claim which he disagrees with. People who can't see it for what it is need to reevaluate their sense of humor, because we always need to consider the consequences of our most cherished ideas, and humor is often the best kind of criticism.

Energy is always conserved, because that's the definition of energy. When an experiment discovers that energy is not conserved, that means we've discovered a new kind of energy (kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy, electrical energy, etc). This is semantics, not physics.

The only way to disprove conservation of energy would be to show that measurable energy -- in _all_ forms combined, varies in quantity in unpredictable ways. And it would be hard to differentiate "non-conservation of energy" from "dark energy" we can't measure with current tools.

You could say this for a ton of MSNBC and Fox News articles. Should they also be banned as fake news?

People in this thread generally aren't saying Breitbart should be considered a reputable source for anything; in fact I'd bet most of the Breitbart defenders in here are leftists or at least not far-right like Breitbart. I'm saying there shouldn't be calls for it to be censored in any way. Censorship is extremely dangerous; far, far more dangerous than Breitbart publishing their silly headlines.
I've played a lot of pinball and there are a lot of things I like about it. It has the best graphics: ultra high resolution, high FOV, high dynamic range, ultra high motion quality, true 3D (not just stereoscopic). It has great sound with the most accurate positional audio possible. It has detailed force feedback and motion control (nudging). Control latency is very low. It has an extremely detailed physics engine (real physics). Modern machines have deep and interesting rule sets.

But there's one huge problem: pinball actively encourages boring play. In almost all circumstances the correct play is slow and cautious. There's rarely any time limit so you want to trap the ball whenever possible and make every shot from a complete stop. Even with timed modes you don't want to rush because the risk of losing the ball is too great. Multiball is best played as a succession of single balls. I had more fun as a beginner because I was more often forced to react to unexpected events.

This could be solved by adding a sensor and solenoid at the base of each flipper to kick the ball out if it detects you holding it (there are other uses for holding the flippers up, eg. drop catches, so just preventing that in software would reduce the skill ceiling). The flipper size could be increased to compensate for the increase in difficulty. I think this would be good for the game in the long run, but it will never be accepted because it would hurt the rankings of the best players, and their support is essential for the industry's continued survival.
> In no other country does the opinion of ~2% of the population (Swing voters in swing states) take precedence over everything else.

It doesn't here, either. In order for it to "take precedence", it has to be the swing 2% - the 2% in the middle. That is, if the 98% of the country voted differently, a different swing 2% would be where the election swung.

I've tried this argument many times with climate change skeptics. It almost always comes down to economics for them. They want cleaner air and water, but not at the expense of their wallets.

Bringing up the long-term economic effects of climate change just brings us back to the original argument.

Well, they're not that far apart (vue 2 and angular 2).
They're both component based frameworks with a very comparable templating system. So you'll be able to create the same things in more or less the same manner with both frameworks.

The main difference is that angular 2 is a bit more enterprisey.
It's a bit more bloated (but also more complete) and if you're a small team with a not too large app, you may find it introduces too much overhead. If you're a larger team with a larger app you'll really benefit from angular 2.

One thing that speaks for angular 2 has is their ngUpgrade module, which allows you to gradually upgrade your angular 1 app, which you may find useful.

There's a (somewhat biased IMO) comparison by vue itself here: https://vuejs.org/v2/guide/comparison.html#Angular-2
Thanks for confirming!

If the client certs are provisioned correctly (and validated correctly on the server side), then they fundamentally should break corporate TLS/SSL gateways. For example, I would store the username in the client cert's EMAIL field when provisioning it, and then check on the server that the same user is authenticating, binding the client cert to a single user. The TLS/SSL gateway is then going to need to have each user's client cert on hand (with private key) if it wants to intercept the traffic.

The only way around I think would be if the TLS/SSL gateway (such as Forcepoint) gave the user a way to upload their client cert with its private key directly into the TLS/SSL gateway... hmm, I wonder if they already allow this.

p.s. I call these gateways "lan-in-the-middle" attacks.
