It is unfair to expect the students to put their lives on hold indefinitely. I say they should pursue their education in places that welcome them like Canada or Germany.
Floats remain useful for their original purpose: floating an inset piece of content inside a wider textual context e.g. an illustration picture or a pull quote. And for that you might still need a clearfix-type workaround.
Carnivore meat you can eat: cat, crocodile, alligator. I'm sure there are others. Not very common in the west - if nothing else, herbivores and omnivores are easier to factory farm - but people do eat them.

What about fish? Tuna, salmon, shark - they all eat meat.
Good question. How much markup do they allow?

"I would genuinely enjoy someone explaining how dismissing the right-wing as sexist is any different than dismissing all of feminism as sexist because there exist sexist feminists."

You just said OP is demonstrating othering and slander and then you expect intellectual honesty? And then you get ferociously downvoted? I think you're better off spending time with the following writer than expecting a serious response to your question.

"Conservatives have made incredible hay out of the perception that liberals sneer at people who don’t live in coastal enclaves. These arguments accept that frame even as they dispute its conclusions, which is not a good argumentative strategy. Additionally, many of these tweets have replies sneering at “rednecks.” Why are you doing that? What is the political value? Aren’t you trying to win elections precisely in the places where these statements would appear most insulting? This is the unfortunate reality: neither the Electoral College nor the Senate are going anywhere anytime soon. They are facts of life. You can refuse to do what’s necessary to win back power in a country structurally designed to make red states disproportionately powerful while Republicans set about implementing an agenda. Or you can develop a strategic political discourse that demonstrates a sensible attitude towards how you frame your appeals. I get it: these aren’t campaign slogans or TV ads for Democrats. But the communal rhetoric of an ideology matters. The day-to-day messaging of the members of a political party matters. What exactly is the political advantage that you think you’re getting from talking like this?"

"His point is pretty simple: as political segregation increases, with people from dramatically different political camps less and less likely to interact, the really bitter political arguments are intra-group, not inter-group. That is, the battles that are most personal and toxic stop being Democrat-Republican but left-liberal, alt-trad, insurgents-establishment.

Alexander names a few indicative examples. Online atheism is a really good one, with battles within atheists of different dispositions being far more frequent and ugly than those between atheists and believers, precisely because the latter groups interact so rarely. Primary season 2016 was the ur-example. The actual presidential campaign was ugly in many ways. But the Sanders vs. Clinton and alt-right vs. establishment GOP fights were more personal, more tiring, more toxic. The perpetual tendency of Clinton partisans to say that Sanders supporters are “just as bad” as the alt-right – a Nazi-influenced far right extremist group, mind you – exemplifies this tendency. Fargroups are further away politically than neargroups, but they don’t live in our shared social and professional spaces while neargroups do, and so they don’t inspire quite the same kind of personal animus."

Obviously, the modified criticism is that the author knows better than to appeal to this kind of anecdote. It doesn't even play a role in hypothesis generation. He's persuading the reader without teaching them, a mistake that can and is made by the even most accomplished people.

I also get the generic "Connection refused" error message in Chrome - seems like the webserver / services crashed.
Exactly. There are a few obvious things that want to be allowed and many others (sites playing adverts and such) that don't.

White-listing youtube would be one click for ever (potentially) and the same for other similar sites (vimeo, maybe facebook, ...) - in fact not even that as common sites like that could be on the list by default (as long as there is an easy way to de-list them).

Sorry, but what is hard science? I mean, models are suppose to change over time, at least if you're doing science right. Even physics models keep changing.

I'm not sure we can say that at any point in time the FDA recommendations were bad, but simply that as more and more knowledge is acquired, old models are showed not to fit the data as well, so we come up with new models that do.

I so wish that were true. I experience crashes on a regular basis when eating such food. There is no way i can go more than 4-6 hours without eating, apart from sleeping. My crashes come quick and once almost lead to a blackout. I don't experience this eating high fat/protein food.
Why doesn't it just crop the element to fit, as with everything else?
Yes, and further to this - genuine question - Why would you use float-based layouts over flexbox for reasons other than backwards compatibility?

About the only reason I can think of off the top of my head is that you / your team already fully grok floats, they are sufficiently powerful for your use case, and you don't want to invest the time to learn flexbox to achieve the same outcome as you could already achieve.

What US government? Prior to the constitution there was only the articles of confederation. There was no US.

What happened as new states got added was irrelevant - the constitution already existed by then. It was the smaller states of the original thirteen that had to be convinced, not territories. And yes, they had a number of options, and that's why the more populous states acceded to a bicameral legislature and the electoral college.
It's about jobs, jobs. Programs building weapons that other countries buy keep jobs. And the Saudi's buy a ton of weapons.
In this case, flexbox actually is a bit awkward - one is often forced to pair flexbox with calc in this sort of situation. If the content, including text, is too long, it pushes the right container down a level unless the width is fixed to an appropriate size - this is doable with calc (for fluid layout) if one has control over the size of the left container, but otherwise it may be difficult to obtain the desired UI with flexbox.

There are fairly large and violent protests against Trump. His supporters are regularly attacked. This has been true ever since he was a serious candidate.

In addition to violent (and some non-violent) protests, you also have direct action targeting his supporters. People who support Trump, or are mistakenly believed to support him, or just random passerby, are being assaulted (and in some cases, kidnapped or shot).

It mostly means, "a whole industry of greedy scum that added all kinds of useless and often harmful crap to the food it sells to make it last longer -- and increase their margins--, be more addictive --and increase their margins--, be prettier looking --and increase it's margins--, be more sugary and/or salty --and increase their margins. People that will outright lie about what they sell you all the time [1]. People that would add melamine to infant milk if it made a profit and they could get away with it [2]. People that would sponsor fake science [3].

Unfortunately a lot of people are so naive as to think that corporations are basically ethical and would never do those things, or that if something involves technology (e.g. food chemistry) it is necessarily good, even if said technology is used against them to pad profits.

> Disjoint probability (weather and coins)

I think the weather is probably independent from a coin, rather than disjoint.

Disjoint events would be something like "the coin lands heads up" and "the coin lands tails up"
Not much benefit in reading old stuff like that. Some of it has been validated, some not. Insulin as the great cause for fat gain hasn't really panned out. On the other hand now we've had some large studies that give an inkling that eating a lot of fat can be healthy for the heart and on the other hand replacing saturated fats with carbs(instead of unsaturated fats) is basically status quo.
> vegetables with no carbs

Unless you're eating something that's (almost) 100% cellulose, that's not correct. Most plants have carbs

The standard already exists in the pro audio world, and it's called MIDI. It supports on and off events with velocity, controllers with ranges, multiple channels, real-time synchronization, sequencing, daisy-chaining, full-duplex bidirectional behavior. And every once in a long while a game appears that supports MIDI input for whatever reason. I once made a Pong paddle prototype with my phone running a MIDI controller app, sending modulation wheel data to the computer to move the paddle around. As well, drivers can turn game controllers into MIDI devices.

The thing that's missing is that manufacturers and developers just aren't on the same page here - the protocols exist, and with pretty good software support, even(there's a Web MIDI, and MIDI for phones in various forms). The major modes of incompatibility - e.g. velocity ranges that are biased and need remapping, unconventional behaviors around SysEx messages - are well-known. It's just a little bit unaesthetic that a game controller would send a "Note On" to press a button when it isn't doing anything with notes, really. And it doesn't map to the tradition of arcade hardware being a simple memory-mapping of button state, but I doubt most game controllers now are doing that internally.

Regardless, game controllers don't send MIDI messages by default. And yeah, MIDI is old, and has a few hard design limits, and one could make a case for looking at another standard like Open Sound Control. But the basic problem of button mapping has been more than solved for a long time, so count me as one who is irritated at the idea that games are special here.

This looks awfully like set theory and SQL. I wonder what the SQL equivalent for each concept would look like. For example (picking the easy one!) marginal probability for long hair would be:

There are absolutely different ways bodies can handle excess calories, and it's pretty clearly documented.

For some people, their body will try to burn the extra calories - this in part may be due to the amount of brown fat, which is one of the mechanisms the body uses to generate heat. For others, their body will store as much energy as possible as fat, and they need to increase their activity level to compensate.

In addition, your body can become more efficient, using less energy based on the calories you consume. This is one reason that it can be very hard to keep weight off after you lose it.

Metabolism is an incredibly complex process, and while we understand a lot of the pieces, we do not yet have a full understanding of how those pieces fit together, and how to use that information to help people change their metabolism beyond more than very general advice (build muscle, be more active), and some things were sort of taken for granted - such as how it used to be thought that lactic acid was responsible for muscle soreness in the days after workouts, when more recent research has shown this isn't the case: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/05/16/health/nutrition/16run.htm....

Maybe in another 50 years we'll have people who can really understand this stuff.

And where were you for the last 15 years?
IMO, I think common sense, basic hygiene practices, a minimal education and a decent firewall goes a longer way, being much better than an AV could.

For example the most common way people get infected is by installing software from unreliable sources and by not keeping their computer up to date. I'm pretty sure that learning to regularly update your OS and browser, learning to search, recognize and use the official sources for software, to stop doing software piracy for that matter, learning to not click on .exe files received in emails and to be suspicious of all attachments, learning to uninstall everything that infects your browser with useless plugins, I'm pretty sure such simple knowledge would cut 99.9% of all incidents.

Most software vulnerabilities in the wild are not novel, "zero day" exploits are not that common. This is why even though I hate Microsoft's recent update policies, on the other hand I understand their newfound aggressiveness in pushing those updates, as it is really frustrating that users ignore update warnings. I also appreciate Chrome's fast updates, which encouraged Firefox to do the same.
Take a look at this collection of test results that MS security products received over the past 2 years, compared to the software at the top of the list: https://bestantivirus.reviews/tools/test-results-calculator?...

I mean, I get the attitude of "common sense is best" - users who know what they're doing will most likely avoid infection if they're not extremely unlucky.

However, I still find it amazing that while people pay a lot more for insurance against less likely events, but the thought of paying few cents/day for an added layer of security for their machine (the same machine that in many cases stores a lot of personally and/or financially valuable information) riles them up.

When you're online you're constantly exposed to threats, and while it's easy enough to ignore spam email and unsolicited messages on Skype and FB, a momentary lapse of reduced attention could get you infected.

For example, here are some ransomware infection stats: https://blog.barkly.com/ransomware-statistics-2016

So what do you think, why is it so hard to learn rust, if it is not about the compiler messages?

Actually I don't think they could. A-V products inevitably insist on running with very high privileges on target machines, restricting the OS' ability to mitigate any vulnerabilities.

A-V products also have been shown be research from Google Project Zero to be doing very dangerous things (like running a local web server you can send commands to that are executed on the device).

When you combine high-privileged code with dangerous practices you get a very nasty set of risks that aren't present with most other software.

As there is an alternative that doesn't have similar problems (MS Defender) it seems sensible to recommend it.

That student's account of meeting those AIVD suits reads like a spy-thriller fanfic, but if it's true then he's pretty brave publishing it like this.

I'm sure the AIVD's cyber division has some talent, but the AIVD leadership is pretty naive about the internet. Last year the director publicly criticized WhatsApp for providing end-to-end encryption because it makes his job harder. Sure. It's not as if any half-decent terrorist wouldn't use advanced cryptography or simply use burner phones to plan and coordinate their attacks.
Is there a way to add the recommendations for an artist/track to the stream playlist?

i.e. if I search for an artist and press play on one of their tracks and let the stream keep playing it goes onto other tracks by that artist, but is there a way to get it to add related tracks too? Like the old last.fm artist radios.

edit: it's now doing that for me so maybe there was just something weird about the recommendations set earlier. Unfortunately I searched for some chilled out electronic stuff and the recommendations are all aggressive hip hop but that's not your fault I guess...

I think this is the primary criteria, do you care enough about your health to modify your diet even if the health benefits might be minute or null?

If you do, then some diets have better odds, like the Mediterranean diet.

It seems to me you don't care enough, or believe a random diet or one selected by the food industry will give you better odds.

Sure, diets are not miracle life extenders or cure for disease. At least none of the known diets have been able to confidently show they are. But a diet is not like sending someone to the moon where you need very close to 100% confidence in your technique. A diet just needs to beat the odds of your current diet. In that sense, most diets, even fad ones, probably beats the average American diet odds.
Connected cars will become the next big weapon
The thing is most anti-malware products cause perf. issues, but it seems to be the 3rd party ones that actually make your security worse with poorly implemented and secured features. It seems bizarre to me that commercial paid for security products have such poor coding practices that a lone (albeit very talented) researcher can find so many dangerous security vulnerabilities in them.

These vendors should be leading the way in secure coding and design due to the high-privilege level their code runs at.
This sort of attack has been discussed in great detail previously:

You can set overflow to visible too, just setting overflow to non-auto is enough to trigger it.
I think the general argument is that attempting to teach something, forces you to work with the material in your own head in a way that improves your own understanding. This is similar to "rubber duck debugging" where explaining a problem to an inanimate object leads you to the solution. But interacting with an actual human being often helps too.
Israeli society, however, is increasingly less and less tolerant of non-Jews. For example: http://www.timesofisrael.com/chief-rabbi-non-jews-shouldnt-b...
