That's fair. But regarding this statement:

My complaint is that a government should exist to facilitate the well being of its people. They should have to operate under the permission of us, not the other way around.

I couldn't agree with you more. Even in Buffalo, I cross about once every two months - if not more - and the Canadian folks are nothing more than polite. This includes Washington State, Minnesota, and New York crossings. I ENCOURAGE people to travel to Canada from the US. The ONLY time I ever had issues was with coming back into the US. The US border searched my car, my electronics, my cameras (I'm a pseudo-high end landscape guy) and basically I find the US re-entry as a US-citizen to be absolutely fucking insanely clownish. I hate the US border patrol though ... but love Canada .. I tolerate the douches.
(e) Wait for Wyoming to lose their coal industry as renewables from nearby states undercut their export of electricity market. After a while this law acts like a tariff, and local people will simply pay higher prices to support an inefficient industry.
This might take longer than it should, as there is no carbon tax, but it will happen. It's already cheaper to build renewable plants now, and with a marginal cost, once built, of $0, the renewables will win in the coming price war.

I think that treatment should be a larger part of the response to crack or meth, but my point was that specifically targeting a substance for harsher policing is not strictly a single-race issue.

> Just like there's nothing intrinsic in skin color or ethnic background for higher crime rates. Yet due to economic/social factors, the rates vary in both cases. Generally the lower household income, the higher percentage of no-ID. Which maps onto races as expected.

Agreed, entirely, but I'm suggesting that the proof-of-eligibility was about voter count, but opposition knew the message would travel better if they conflated it with race.
I flagged this post. Out of all the news that happened that day, this was an extremely isolated incident. It does not deserve attention or discussion, and anyone attempting to make it a a top story is motivated entirely by the hope of scoring political points.

It's the most direct "there is no good reason to use this" ban.

There's really three reasons to use antibiotics in livestock:

1. Growth promotion
2. Prophylaxis
3. Treating disease.

The ban hits #1. #3 really doesn't deserve to be banned - it's a legitimate use of antibiotics in veterinary medicine. #2 is where there's still a problem, because the use of antibiotics as a preventative runs the gamut from a perfectly legitimate veterinary intervention to an egregious misuse of antibiotics depending on the circumstance.
It's great that Google wants to move more sites to https, and I'm in support of this, but it also creates challenges for security vendors such as myself.

Currently DNSFilter and others Man in the Middle traffic destined for sites our customers have decided to block. This works great for http,
but not https, as certificate warnings are presented.

The standard work around is arguably less secure: adding a third-party CA to all end-points. This can still present problems with HSTS and certificate pinning.

I'd like to work with Google to create a standard where vendors can either be on a whitelist or have new recognized SSL cert fields, not to MITM traffic, but just to present users with a friendlier message explaining whats happening, and providing a separate https:// url to visit for information from the vendor about the block.

Implementing such a standard in browsers would further increase user security, and provide a viable method for filtering on guest networks where there is no end-point access.
Quoting Adobe on DNG and patents:

“Essential Claim” means a claim of a patent, whenever and wherever issued, that Adobe has the right to license without payment of royalty or other fee that is unavoidably infringed by implementation of the DNG Specification (from https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/digital-negative.html#dng)

The patents are not on the file format, but cover techniques required to implement an application reading it. Similar to how you have to pay to use e.g. MPEG4, since various companies have patented parts of the compression mechanisms. The patents don't cover just MPEG4, but any video format using these mechanisms.
One of the main aspect of Data Science is... Science.

I know some people who I would qualify as scientist without a PhD, but they are extremely rare. On the other hand, I've seen countless unqualified people apply and get (lousy) data science job because the "title" itself is very vague. I'd be more inclined to hire a PhD (who's been through a fairly painful scientific training) in, say, material science, then train her to data/programming, than get a good programmer and train her for science.

I'm not for a "Data Scientist Association"[0], but I'm not for diluting the value of all the effort I made to effectively become a data expert AND a trained scientist.

I agree with the main point of the article, but feel like it undermines itself in a couple of ways. Firstly (and by far most importantly), the alleged quote from the NSA[1] comes from a parody site which explicitly states "[t]his parody website has no connection whatsoever to the National Security Agency"[2]. If a reader isn't already convinced of the potential harms of mass surveillance, (accidentally, presumably) using such quotes makes the arguments easier to discard.

Secondly, and this is more of a pet peeve of mine, is the "top highlight" that appears mid-way through the article. I know they aren't really comparable, but "mass surveillance is bad, but, by the way, we are totally tracking every interaction you make with this article" doesn't feel like a particularly consistent position to hold.

Wait, why? My understanding is that the rhetoric was specifically about illegal immigration. Why should the US not police its borders or its people lose the ability to make decisions on immigration?

Pretty much anything can be reasoned in hindsight, and we have to have tools to undo the ratcheting effect that crisis responses have historically had on public policy. It's only through the devaluing of the public interest -- some might say freedom itself has been defined down over the years -- that there is no counterbalance to it being seen as "not a great political move." We have to invent a politics that can justify the tradeoff, and that it's not in existence yet (much), is something that authoritarians know. Heck, I guess we all know it, but there still has to be a way back, because what's the alternative?

Maybe we're about to find out.

The federal government, a distinct amorphous entity for sake of discussion, has completely subjugated all of its constituent states, has the same leverage over most foreign states, and merely tolerates any autonomy as long as it is deemed beneficial to the federal government.

Even the notion of federalism is a misnomer in this country, the National government has completely subjugated all of its constituent states.

Individual united states are bankrupt entities, with toothless nominal agencies. What possible autonomy do you imagine they could muster?

That's strange, considering this administration is openly hostile to the environment, and ran on the traditional Republican platform of state's rights.

Voting rights, commerce, environment - these things being relegates to the states vs being reviewable by the federal government are related by how and whether the executive branch decides to act. That they have the legal power through case law doesn't mean they'll actually use it.

I disagree with that approach to framing terrorism because attacks are not just random violence, they are responses to the specific actions or perceived actions of individuals and governments. Charlie Hebdo and the various cartoonists that have drawn political comics of Mohammed, have (to my knowledge) all found themselves at the receiving end of terrorist attacks, or at least credible threats that require them to change their way of life. Thus there are now broad topics where we don't actually have the freedom of speech that technically exists on paper.

It's not forbidden, it just has a ~10% tariff (fine). $10 per MWh compared to the current price of $120 per MWh. If solar or wind ends up actually cheaper than coal, it'll probably be by more than that 10% so it'll still be economical to use them.

Furthermore, the fine doesn't apply to exported electricity, which is most of it:

It's actually pretty difficult not to be racist. I'm racist, for example, as are pretty much all other white people in the US. I try hard not to be, but I think it would help white peoples' understanding to assume that you are racist and realize that it's sort of a nasty default state of being born white in a white supremacist society that needs to be actively fought against to be eliminated.

No white person is wholly racist or wholly not racist, it's all shades of gray, the most important part is that we understand why it's important to combat racism and do so actively in ourselves and when it happens in public. The only solution to racism is active anti-racism and the destruction of "white" as a category afforded special privileges by our culture and institutions.

Oh it almost certainly is the main reason why it isn't popular. Then again, that is also the same reason why abstract mathematics in general isn't popular.

Saying the experience is "not transferable" is looking at it the wrong way. Learning the discipline behind haskell isn't even remotely the same kind of beast as learning how to use a niche legacy framework in COBOL for example.

It's a lot more akin to learning to read human language for the first time, because all it's doing is familiarizing you with patterns that exist in code and computation, independent of Haskell. The actual language part of the haskell equation is literally the least relevant/significant, because what it teaches you is to recognize mathematical/computational patterns that you can find in any language, despite the difficulty of expressing some of those concepts succinctly in some languages (e.g. java).

The biggest thing that's 'not transferable' is the ability to communicate the high level patterns to others who haven't gained literacy with that particular branch of mathematics/CS yet. But that's true of all sciences and mathematics. You can call it a "weird side language", but that's kinda doing it a disservice as a language that's intended to express complex relationships and computational patterns in the most general way possible.

I suspect that the parties might flip again.

It's a matter of trust.

People in other societies do this all the time -- entire families in China, for example, will pay in invest in others' education or pay for them to emigrate to the US, with the understanding that if the person succeeds they will bring over other family members or send back money.

But do coworkers really know and trust each other so well to do this without enforcement mechanisms? Lawyers are extremely expensive, so while you theoretically have recourse to the law, in practice even drafting an airtight contract can easily cost tens of thousands of dollars.

Again there's two problems: cultural (I think to most Americans it's a blow to pride admitting they need help from others), and also enforcing 'percentage of paycheck' contracts is difficult. Just see how much trouble people have enforcing alimony or child support payments, even when the case is 100% legally clear.

Isn't the entire Democratic viewpoint about augmenting the role of government in a number of places via government programs and regulation? I'm sure Democrats will pop up to tell me I'm wrong, but it seems to me that you cannot wish for the expansion of government control and power unless you believe the government is mostly good. It's an interesting line you've drawn to mass surveillance because, yes, if the government has our best interests in mind then surveillance is not a problem at all.
Ok, I get it now. If that's the case then you should look at or suggest to Apple apps like Workflow and Launch Center Pro which can also be used to provide shortcuts and integrations in other apps from the home screen. Is that the kind of thing you're going for? I realize it's probably not exactly the same but maybe it's along the same lines.
I know a lot of people who care deeply about the rule of law that don't care about surveillance. The Constitution doesn't categorically prohibit surveillance. The fact of the matter is that when the Framers were writing the fourth amendment, they were really thinking in terms of property rights, not information. But there are many modes of surveillance that can be accomplished without infringing property rights.

Now, you can apply things like mosaic theory to conjure up rights against surveillance into existence. And maybe that would be the right thing to do. But that's not the only reasonable construction of the fourth amendment, and I'd argue not even the most reasonable one (doctrinally).

But, it's certainly something we could do. The "right to privacy" that covers contraception and abortion was conjured into existence literally from "penumbras." Even most "living Constitution" types would concede that those aren't the most doctrinally strict concepts. But it took an enormous amount of political capital to make those stick (and even today it is tenuous.) The question is, are people willing to spend that kind of political capital on electronic privacy?

> Manhattan, in theory, should be dirt cheap as far as $/sq.ft. due to massive supply, and it's not.

Because it's supply and demand. The demand is very high in Manhattan. What we would expect is that anywhere there is such high demand that the price is higher than the construction cost, there would be new construction (increase in supply) until prices fall to meet the construction cost. In other words the cost of an apartment in any city should have the same floor (unless every inch of the city is already covered in high rises) because new apartments would be built until the rent falls below the construction cost of building more apartments.

But we don't see that because of zoning regulations that prohibit it. (And in part because of property taxes that discourage construction; land value tax is better in cities.)
