Sure that was one of many contributing factors. A couple sentences later that study affirms the point I was making:

"Finally, in a landmark 1954 ruling, the Internal Revenue Service clarified an earlier administrative court ruling regarding the income tax status of ESI by exempting such benefits from income taxation and adding this provision to the tax code."
I Am Not A Legal Scholar, but:

It is not clear to me that any of the constitutional documents in the UK enshrine a right to silence. The Right to Silence in the U.K. is generally built up on common law, not statue. Every essay I have ever found on this topic refers to the right to silence in the UK as predicated on common law, not on statute, let alone on a critical constitutional document that would require explicit repeal.

So yes, Parliament cannot implicitly repeal some documents. But I don't think that the Right to Silence is in any of those. Of course, citations to the contrary would be welcome!

EDIT: And in fact the law has been challenged, all the way to the ECHR. The challenge failed: https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2007/jun/29/transport.eu
You'd want to stream more than one movie at a time if you had more than one person in a house.

For example, I used to live in a house where there were 5 of us. I really wanted to subscribe to Netflix, because it was 1/10th the cost of cable TV and suited my needs even better. But the connection just wasn't strong enough for two people to stream video at once so it meant we had to work out a timetable of who could watch movies/TV when, swap blocks if some live event one of us wanted to watch came on, etc, and it just wasn't worth the inconvenience.

Most people live with other people.
I think all this is by-the-by. The gist of The Guardian's article was that WhatsApp has full control of when, if and how your messages are encrypted, and if you're a dissident working against an oppressive regime and you use WhatsApp to collaborate with your allies, your ass is grass, because there isn't anything physically preventing security agencies from getting hold of your communications.

That such security agencies have the power to force WhatsApp (or anyone) to comply with their demands is without doubt. A really secure system for activists would be one that makes it impossible even for the provider to read your messages, under any circumstances. WhatsApp is not just not that, it is also ridiculously easy for them to read your messages, if they so choose and you use it at your own risk.
I disagree. It depends on the job. Of course, if I hire a salesperson or for any role which involves negotiations with parties outside the company, I will gladly pay extra for a good negotiator. Therein lies part of the value of that person for the company. If I hire a back-office engineer or for any other kind of job that does not involve negotiations with external parties, I will not. Paying someone for skills which are not of value to the company is not only unfair to others who bring the same value to the company, but outright stupid.
Really? official secrets acts (or the equivelents) apply to every one - there may be additional punishments for military and those who have signed the act.
For others live to work is a reasonable motto as well. it is deeply ingrained with their life purpose. of course its probably easier if your job is something very valuable to society like a nurse, doctor or police officer as opposed to a cube rodent

Only if the cost of the services is above the deductible. Let's say you have a $2500 deductible, and go in for a CAT scan that, coincidentally, works out to a cost of $2450. That all comes out of your pocket, if you're doing this on Jan 1 and haven't used any of your deductible yet, with the insurance company paying nothing. If your pockets are empty, the hospital doesn't get paid without hounding you, working out a payment plan, or going to collections.

As a sidebar, it's awesome when you have a situation as described, and then never go to the doctor again for the rest of the year, and so get no cost reductions on anything, despite paying out-of-pocket for the services you did use, plus whatever your premiums are.
You can stream anything at any bitrate, but 2x 720p on 5 Mbps would be a very extreme case. That would be a third to a quarter the bitrate of a 20-year-old DVD, or 3.5 - 7% the bitrate of a Blu-ray disc. That's less than half the 'Extremely Low' preset of the Sorenson encoder, the lowest you can go without defining custom options.

I would not say that performance has been met. Performance has been met for those who pay a lot of money and then only use their computer for Chrome or photoshop. It still performs quite poorly for many other things, like compiling, physics calculations, network tweening in multiplayer games, and all the things you can do with your computer outside of the basics. Thats not e-penis, thats real work/applications that still suffer quite badly, even with an I7 extreme edition.

Personally I've been dissapointed in how CPU's haven't improved in the same way GPU's have. I'd much rather that CPU's start getting bigger rather than smaller, and put more effort into single-core performance.

As far as I can tell, to do this they had to partner with Google, who are the arbiters of what is and is not AMP compatible. This is absolutely "proprietary" and honestly pisses me off even more than if it were only Google's servers in charge of this stuff as now they are screwing with the CDN market as well :/. An open standard is something anyone can implement and be compatible with, without permission.
> "Because then pretty much EVERY insurance company will pick up and move to the one most desperate state that writes laws in their favor, doesn't tax them, allows them to sell substandard insurance, gives them liability protection and forced arbitration and in every way abuse the customer."

He wasn't in the military, didn't take secrets from the military so if he were pardoned, it can't possibly suggest the military considers such things acceptable. The military doesn't come into it.

If you're using a iOS device, take a look at Apple Configurator. I blocked Safari and a few other time-sink apps with it and noticed a extreme reduction in habitual phone usage. It's mainly a texting/messaging device with a few critical apps (Mint, Messenger, RBC, Notes) installed. It's a happy medium between a full on feature phone.

Unfortunately there are still many features[1] that Android (and iOS) haven't stolen from webOS. The few features implemented have merely been copied poorly. I still multitask much more comfortably on a Pre 3.6" screen phone than on the 12.9" iPad Pro.

And while we're in the topic of AI assistants, I still think these voice-only interfaces on iOS/Android, don't match the simplicity of webOS' Just Type. You have to memorize the capabilities and/or syntax for Siri and Google Assistant whereas webOS would autocomplete/autosuggest as you 'Just Type'. That experience is still profound imo. (If any of Andy Rubin's Essential team is reading this, please add 'Just Type' as a core feature to your assistant)

Pardon russian spy.
No doubt your intentions are good but the solutions you propose are scary. You say that mentally ill without a home should get medical care. Alright, I agree. And they will get that medical care in Amsterdam if they ask for it. But then you say, they should get the treatment involuntary if need be. But suppose I am a homeless person living on the street, who will determine that I am mentally ill and should get forced treatment? What if it is my personal choice to live on the street? Or does that already qualify me as mentally ill, in somebody's eyes?

Actually it is possible in Amsterdam for people to be forced to get treatment, but that is only if they are a clear danger to themselves or the people around them.

Then at the end you say "homeless people fail in our society. We have to re-educate them so that they are productive and serve as a net positive for society."

I hope this will not be a forced re-education as well? And who will determine what 'our' society is? I find it really scary when a group of people defines society to be 'theirs' and that anybody who does not wish to live along their lines should be re-educated. History provides plenty of examples where this idea was put into practice, most of the time with all the good intentions, and every time the outcome was horrible.
I find it really fortunate. SPAs can use much much less data for the same content, which is a big plus when you're on a data-limited connection, as most users in the developing world are. If you spend much time on a site they also demand less CPU and thus less battery life (vdom updates are less intense than new page renders), which helps when you're on a mobile connection, and they feel much more responsive when you're on a high-latency connection, which you are again if you're in the developing world or on mobile. Server-side rendering feels like getting a faster and lighter initial load in exchange for heavier, slower, more battery-draining usage overall.
The case being made (and there is some reporting this is being considered by the administration) is for commuting her sentence, not pardoning her.
I've got nothing against Python3. But recognize that Python3 got itself into this mess by being incompatible with Python2. It's different language, albeit superficially similar to Python2.

The fact of the matter is, that when you disable the only defense against MITM by default, you should not claim your stuff is secure and end to end encrypted, because it is not. It's really easy as that.

Warning fatigue, "most" users not knowing how to do it or doing it wrong etc, are indeed hard problems to solve. There are indeed no easy answers to this, or else somebody would have come up with something already. But just because it's not easy does not mean you're entitled to just lie about the security properties of your system to your users.

>WhatsApp's end-to-end encryption ensures only you and the person you're communicating with can read what is sent, and nobody in between, not even WhatsApp. [...] All of this happens automatically: no need to turn on settings or set up special secret chats to secure your messages.

Given that the only defense against a WhatApp MITM is turned off by default, the "not even WhatApp"/"automatically: no need to turn on settings" part is just not true.
If you're going to make a contentious statement like that (i.e. most homeless are insane). I think you should probably at least try to back it up.

It probably varies significantly by country/city. But the first reference I found [1] suggested that somewhere in the region of 28% of homeless people suffer from a serious metal illness.

Saying "one becomes homeless because one cannot manage money effectively" is also pretty offensive, unless you back it up with some data. I imagine there are a number of economic and other reasons someone might end up on the streets.

To me your comment mostly just comes across as condescending and somewhat arrogant. It would be more interesting to discuss actual data on homelessness...

You ask this as if all coding bootcamps teach these things, which I highly doubt to be the case. In fact, I'm aware of several "bootcamps" for both Java and Python. Hell, there's even one out there for COBOL: http://www.wintrac.com/courses/mfcobc.asp

As someone who ended up learning Ruby (and Rails) for a previous job, I can attest that it's a great language from a learning/teaching perspective. Huge ecosystem, the syntax is actually readable, you don't have to fiddle with compilers, and so on. As mentioned in other comments, Rails is also the archetypal MVC framework, for better or worse; while I don't personally care for it, it gets the job done and is in relatively common use; in terms of getting students from zero to hireable quickly, Rails knowledge is pretty useful.

Meanwhile, Javascript is one of those necessities for web development, for better or worse, so a web-centric bootcamp will understandably put some emphasis on learning it.
Data Science Bowl 2017: Can you improve lung cancer detection? $1M price
There are sadly still a lot of things we treat roughly in the same way, from most unoperable cancers to even strong acne (isotretinoin may not be "poison" in the commonly understood way, but the underlying concept of how and why we take it is still pretty much the same).

When you see scifi movies and shows where any ailment can be cured with 5 minutes in a machine, it's still a far away dream from where we are now. In a way, it's also full of hope.
Housing costs are probable twice as much... unless you live in CA...then they are 10 times as much. Imagine buying that ranch in the Oakland hills for 70k in the 80s that's worth 800k. There is the ability of these same boomers to fight new construction. Oh and prop 12! Why not defer all the taxes until the sale of the house!? Boomers in CA living in 800k houses paying taxes frozen at 70k. Awesome deal.
This was not my experience at all, at least as someone purchasing directly (not through an employer).

Before ACA, our premiums went up ~5% per year - 8% one year - every year was under 10%. Since ACA, I've seen increases of 25%, 20%, 20%, 25%, then 11% then 13%. This is in NC with Blue Cross - the numbers possibly were different elsewhere (was in Michigan before that but wasn't paying as much attention, unfortunately).

The price increases I was seeing seemed primarily in line with inflationary numbers pre-ACA; post-ACA they seem to have no correlation to inflation, and seem to have more to do with a much larger overall cost for the insurance company covering more people, no lifetime caps, more services covered, etc.

EDIT: On, that factcheck chart - that looks to be showing premium increases for employer-provided health insurance. Employers cutting back their contributions to the premium would account for much/most of those increases. Effectively, it doesn't say anything about the actual insurance premium increases, only what employer-covered workers were having to pay - in my view, that's a big difference.

I've actually seen the opposite in my own job searches (though I'm admittedly not actively searching for Node jobs); outside the tech bubbles, the programming jobs are mostly around enterprise stuff, which is far more likely to be centered around either the JVM or the .NET CLR. Rails is actually starting to catch on in these sectors, since it's gradually becoming "legacy" (which translates to "actually tried and true in production") while Node becomes the new hotness.

> less well-known programs that are much harder to reverse have been productively
> It's just not capital-H Hard to do it in closed-source software, so this open vs. closed debate about backdoors is usually a red herring.

No, you are oversimplifying the problem a lot.

In an Open Source project it is possible to create transparency in the development process by every commit public and allowing 3rd parties to mirror the sources repositories as well as perform reproducible builds, sign the artifacts and so on.

Once a project has been reviewed, it becomes pretty difficult to sneak in a backdoor later or deliver a backdoored build only to some specific targets.

In case of closed source smartphone applications it's very Hard to reverse engineer every single release simply because it takes a staggering amount of work.

It's also Hard to verify that some unsuspecting users are receiving a "custom" apk and block the update automatically.

Being "White" in the US is as much cultural as it has to do with skin color. Hispanics, even those of light complexion, tend to be a part of Latin culture and thus do not consider themselves to be "white".
