The FCC's newly passed privacy rules, meanwhile, force Internet providers to give consumers a say in how their most sensitive personal data is used and shared.

Whenever such issues comes up, I come out and advocate for the use of "Reverse-DRM" -- Instead of big companies using crypto against individuals, individuals should be using such tech to protect themselves against big companies. Often, people will counter by saying that laws are enough. However: "Possession is nine tenths of the law" and "Opportunity makes a thief." Such laws are necessary, but those would be way easier to enforce and pass in the first place if consumers had some form of lock that companies had to circumvent. This election also shows that laws shouldn't be the exclusive protection.

It is precisely the asymmetric nature of power between companies and individuals that makes the corporate use of DRM against individuals so horrible, and the individual use of DRM against corporations so potentially beneficial. However, there are so many online who simply knee-jerk against the idea of DRM without thinking about this, it will probably never happen.
The broader topic is about some golang moderators not wanting to associate with a company because of that company's actions. The downvoted comment simply extends the reasoning to other areas. It's pretty relevant imo.

Is there any proof that the request was rejected because Ben was "on principle" against neutral pronouns? His comment nicely states "not interested in trivial commits", which is a perfectly reasonable rejection, especially since the commit was possible not done in good faith but rather politically motivated.
I'm curious to know if you see much heavier participation from people with certain viewpoints based on the typical demographics of that viewpoint. @StrikeAnAccord, can you comment on this?

For example, given the demographic information in the 2016 US Elections, I would expect Hilary supporters to have much higher representation in an online/telephonic medium. Is that the case?

I have a mid-2014 Macbook Pro which I love (although given Apple's direction I may switch to linux). I haven't found any hardware that really compares with Apple's products on build quality and just the pleasure of use (from the screen quality to the responsiveness of the trackpad and everything in between).

I normally have it plugged into a 24" Dell monitor but got rid of my Apple wireless keyboard and magic mouse because actually prefer having my laptop in front of me and the larger (primary) monitor above it so I don't have to move my neck/eyes along the horizontal rotation.

As for an environment, I mostly programme with node.js and use docker to contain my databases, rabbitmq, etc.. All my config is stored in my dotfiles [1] anyway so setup is easy (and I basically live in my terminal so homebrew + zsh + tmux + vim sorts my life out perfectly).

But that's why we argue and debate in the first place. We don't do it AFTER the votes have been called, because it's too late to change anything then.

Why is it a brave decision? Do you actually think anxiety disorder is an infectious disease?
The executive staff at telecoms I have talked to have mixed expectations. I don't know anyone at/with cable -- which I think this was aimed at in the first place.

The reclassification of services necessary to make the ruling in the first place was (I believe) over-reach.

But, people appear to like the outcome, so they don't quibble with the methods.

I don't dislike that particular outcome, but worry about the executive branch unilaterally extending their own purview. That territorial expansion would allow for a lot of decisions that I might like a lot less. That probably just means that I worry too much about what will happen when a guy I don't like is in charge...

That's a Heritage piece (republican think tank, and not even one with a particular philosophical lean: Heritage is a straight ticket republican mouthpiece) written in the days before the 2004 election when it looked like Bush was going to lose the popular vote again like he did in 2000. That's, like, the precise opposite of a measured review of the subject.

Thanks for linking. According to Wikipedia it does seem that in American English gender-neutral “they” is a bit of a touchy subject, in that some people and style guides find it unacceptable, so I took note of that. I’ll keep using “they” though, genderless speech is a neat language feature (and it just doesn’t sound wrong to me in English, like gendered pronouns do sometimes).
This is cool, but I have a few criticisms:

- Flipping something over like that looks cool, but confuses the brain. At least it confused mine.

- Inconsistently calculating 1 or 2 elements at a time is confusing. Having 2 results calculated at a time simply put requires the recipient to untangle what is going on. This only gets worse when the recipient tries to do it themselves for examples with more columns in the right matrix.

Disclaimer: I am biased as I already know how to do matrix operations, and I visualize it differently. When multiplying by hand I translate the right matrix up, like in the animation, but do not flip it over. Then I calculate each element one at a time by taking the sum of products of the row and column that intersects over that element. Like so: http://i.imgur.com/D572zOI.png

As you can see I'm not much of a graphics artist.

Edit: actually, I think this would be really good if you "filter down" one column at a time, instead of moving the whole matrix down, so that it only calculates one element at a time, one column at a time. Means the animation will contain more steps, but I think that is actually to its benefit. Does this make sense?
Indian govt said no to "Free Basics" plan, his satellite launch project failed, fake news scam and now he is forced to give control of Facebook to Chinese govt against his company's motto. It has been a bad year for Facebook.
That quote heavily suggests that it's talking about a one-off post rather than a foaming-at-the-mouth mob spamming libellous abuse.
You're right, that's the argument. It ignores the fact that the position makes no sense. In the UK, most laws are made by civil servants, under the direction of ministers, within the mandate of parliament. Under Brexit, this function will grow, not shrink.

Stephen Phillips, a prominent and heavily Brexit-supporting Conservative, appears to have figured out that Brexit means a huge increase in executive power, not a reduction. He's resigned from the party. Sadly, he appears to be alone.

In practical terms, the amount of legislation a modern country needs is far in excess of what its elected bodies can deliver. The question isn't if someone other than the body should be legislating, it's who, and with what oversight.
Granted we are in fact a constitutional republic, presidents and congress ranging Bush to Obama would have to stop the "make the world safe for democracy" rhetoric as a "meta-reason"(to make up a word) for going to war.

Politicians across the spectrum have either defrauded their people with "democracy" rhetoric, or accepted it as a de facto standard for the modern age. Which one of the two, I'm clearly not possessing of the answers.

Can you give an example of "insert bad person here", where having more data made a difference?

We don't need intrusive government any more than intrusive neighbors. How do you even come to a personal preference for invasive government? Seems actively against self interest.

Your edit mostly got it right with the exception that it wasn't commonly called a T-1 or E-1 and the numbers are slightly off.

* ISDN BRI = two 64k B channels and one 16k D channel

* ISDN PRI over T1 = twenty three 64K B channels and one 64k D channel

* ISDN PRI over E1 = thirty 64k B channels and one 64k D channel (time slot 0 on the E1 was used as a sync channel and wasn't considered a B or D)

T1/E1 was considered an analog circuit with 24 or 32 respective 64kbps voice channels using in band signaling effectively limiting each channel to 56k. ISDN PRI used the same cabling and channel separation, but instead ran a digital circuit with out of band signaling enabling the full 64k to be available for voice and data. ISDN PRI (and BRI) also allowed the option to be packet based (similar to X.25) rather than circuit switched for data transmission.

The US is a democracy. It is also a constitutional republic. There's no conflict between the terms.

The Heritage Foundation is smart enough to realise the EC favours Republicans and therefore the policies it promotes and so will spin anything to make that seems like a good idea, because the will of the people being enacted would work against their goals.

Finally, and more a reply to the parent comment, even a popular vote within a two-party system can be suboptimal in some ways and so be less than an ideal "democracy". Ranked choice voting or similar systems can stop "regulatory capture" of the two main parties from denying the voters a legitimate voice.
I have a Lenovo Thinkpad W550s (i7-5500U and 16GB of RAM). I dock it and use two 1920x1080 monitors (and not the monitor on the computer) with a bluetooth mouse and a Microsoft ergonomic keyboard. It's provided by my company's IT department who keeps up security, though I do much of my development in an Ubuntu VM. If I was providing my own machine, I'd probably do similarly but use Ubuntu as my main OS and have Windows for the few Windows-specific tools I need.
That "mere facilitation" is extremely valuable. Do you think stock exchanges themselves are valuable and worth paying for? They bring buyers and sellers together in a centralized place, merely facilitating a pre-existing desire to trade, taking a small cut in the process.

Imagine a world without them. When you want to buy a share of Microsoft, you could call all your friends seeing if they want to sell any or know someone who does. That could take forever or you might never trade. Search costs are real.

Much like the stock exchange helps buyers and sellers find one another in the same security, HFT helps buyers and sellers find one another across exchanges, securities or risk factors. They basically create a meta-market for you, at very little cost. Typical HFT profit margins are fractions of a cent per share traded, similar in magnitude to what the exchange earns.

To give a real example, imagine you want to sell Valeant Pharmaceuticals after their latest scandal. You only have access to the US markets. There's an abundance of sellers in New York pushing the price down, but over in Canada, the price is a little higher. Someone in Toronto just read the latest report, thinks the price will rise, and put a bid in, but he only has access to the Canadian markets. The two of you wish you could find one another, but you can't.

An HFT algo with real-time data from Canada and the foreign exchange rate places a bid on the NYSE, tightening the spread. You sell to them. They turn around and hedge their stock exposure by selling to the guy in Toronto, and trade an FX futures contract in Chicago. This is "mere facilitation", but it helped two traders transact at a better price than they would have otherwise, and forces convergence between two related markets to make them more efficient. Automation lets him run this same trade over thousands of securities for very low margins, making a few dollars in each every day. How is that not a great thing?

Macbook Pro 10,1, early 2013. Still a very speedy machine, although I do covet the new SSDs that are almost an order of magnitude faster. Apple bluetooth keyboard, and some random mouse and an external 24" monitor. Ruby on Rails, iOS, web dev.

Interesting response when you state that you may give Linux a try given Apple's direction and then you list what you like about Apple's laptop. I wonder why you're thinking that other then the recent 'post' by some complaining about the new Notebooks. I recently purchased a new MBP 15 (up from a 2011 MBP 13) and the build quality is still there, the design of the new laptop is really nice and the screen quality is excellent.

To top it off the new MBP have a awesome trackpad and are very quiet (least mine is I have the 2.6GHZ 16GB 256GB SSD model) and even while playing videos on Google Chrome (which use to really heat up my 13 inch) my 15 inch is quiet and cool.

It's awesome to see all the discussion here regarding eero and mesh networking as a whole!

If you have been waiting to update your home WiFi, there is no better time than now. I'm excited to share that from Black Friday through Cyber Monday, you'll be able to find eero at a discount, including $100 off a three pack. For those that already love Apple products, I'm confident that eero will be a very comfortable networking solution for you.

We have thousands of happy Apple customers. Plus, if you already use a Time Capsule for backing up your data or an Airport Express for Airplay, you can bridge these to an eero network so you can continue to use these features that may be essential to your current home network.

Let us know if you have any questions! Feel free to give us a call at 1-877-659-2347 or email us at support@eero.com.

Ah. One hears a lot of complaining from Pakistan and it's citizens against the US and it's apparently damaging policies.

It's unlikely for one to hear such complaints against China, as China will nip any dissent in the bud, with an iron fist. The great Chinese censor and censure machinery will soon hold a tight grip around the citizens, media and politics of Pakistan. Happy 2017 and beyond!

I'm not sure that "sheesh" is an appropriate response.

It's perfectly valid for an app to reply on the security of its own storage space, and isolation from other apps, and drive encryption services of the platform. These are the guarantees provided by the underlying OS, and if they are broken, all bets are off.

And what would you do differently? Any effort you put in here is going to cost you complexity and only likely provide security through obscurity. Fundamentally, the app has the authority to unlock and start the car. And a root exploit fundamentally has power over the app. This doesn't change even if you put the "key" material into hardware storage. Or maybe you could add an in-app password to encrypt the Tesla password? This is nasty UX, and the root exploit can still wait around for a moment when the password is provided.

If there's any take away here, it is regarding Android. If you want a secure Android phone, choose it carefully. Very few Android phones keep up with the Google automatic security patch schedule. You may want one that does, such as a Pixel.

>> Everytime there is a terrorist attack or mass shooting it seems that we get the same story of "they were known to the local police/FBI" or that their family had concerns

This isn't enough to judge the effectiveness of mass surveillance, because of course there would be misses - the question is how many - and of course we don't know.

But there's a natural "experiment" recently happening: lone wolf terrorism , which unlike terrorism before it , don't require communicating and planning together with others , all activities that can be detected by surveillance(see john rob's blog for more details), and even it's marketing is imprevious to surveillance.

And i get the general impression that this has led to a marked increase in terrorism , noticed strongly in Israel's latest lone wolf wave, for example[1] , and probably in france/Germany/US too.

[1]Israel lone wolf terrorism has mostly been done using cold weapons, so it's harm has been greatly decreased, but without mass surveillance, it's pretty reasonable guess that a lot of it would have been much more deadly.
