You probably could use process substitution to get rid of the temp file:

comm -12 Whitelist <(ag MyString | awk -F: '{print $1}' | sort | uniq) > Output

Then you could use unique flag of sort:

comm -12 Whitelist <(ag MyString | awk -F: '{print $1}' | sort -u) > Output

Also ag can list only matching files (getting rid of awk and unique):

comm -12 Whitelist <(ag -l MyString | sort) > Output
Damn, you are absolutely right!

It never crossed my mind that LVM and similar needs utilities to access the filesystem and to be honest, I thought initrd/initramfs contained only kernel modules, not executables and scripts... ^__^;
CSS only needs additional elements in case you need to apply structures which is not already present in the HTML. To layout something as a grid you need two levels of grouping: what delimits a cell and what delimits a row. Free-from dt/dd sequences does not contain this information, since there may be multiple dt per dd and vice versa. If dt/dd could only appear in pairs (like in your example) you could say there is an implicit structure, but this is not necessarily the case.
Why Software Devs Should Ditch Silicon Valley for Austin, San Diego or Seattle
Works even when your hard drives are severely damaged and you just need to /bin/dd some raw sectors.

That reminds me of the time when some partitioning utility overwrote the first block of my filesystem and then set the filesystem start to the wrong block. I thought I was hosed, but I managed to use hexdump to find a backup superblock, calculate the correct filesystem offset from that, and dd the backup superblock into the primary location. I may be misremembering some details.
What new York state law prohibits this? My contract says that as a salaried employee I work at the company for 23:59 hours Monday to saturday, so it's only Sunday that's off the clock.

And from what I understood, all inventions they own, but I am still very iffy on what's qualified as an invention.

A coworker even asked for bosses blessing to sell some stuff on the side unrelated to the company, he said no because as per the contract that wouldn't let coworker give full undivided attention to the company.

>When we start categorizing the United States, for instance, as Phildickian-Huxlian-etc., we're doing so without answering the bigger question: Is the modern US a dystopia? Why or why not?

Well, compared to where Americans would once have told you the country ought to end up, yes, it's a dystopia, particularly for the young. I've heard teachers say that Push: a novel accurately describes their students' lives.

For many of us, well, there's this joke. In the '80s you were told that under Russian Communism, everyone would have to pack themselves into overcrowded apartments and nobody could own their own car. Now, in the 2010s, under American capitalism, we young people all have to pack ourselves into overcrowded apartments and nobody can own their own car.

Living standards have declined. Personal freedoms and privacy have retreated. Politics has grown more authoritarian. Science is being rejected rather than advanced. Education has stagnated.

It's a low-grade dystopia.
> Trump's rise to power is more symbolic of national angst than in terms of substantive change in policy. I predict there will be some disappointment by former Trump voters who think that Trump is going to be this huge reformer.

Literally Obama. This election really burned me out on US politics to be honest. Seeing smart people I generally respect instantly taking the opposite position to Trump no matter what has been a big bummer. It's a bizzaro mirror image of the last 8 years and is really tiring and disheartening.

Automation can absolutely do manual labor. How do you think cars used to be made in the past? By workers manually attaching the parts together. Today however we have giant machines that perform those tasks.

It's only a matter of time before other forms of manual labor are automated. It won't happen all at once, but gradually.

It would be great to have a few of these issues sourced in the comment (and your comments on the Tor Browser expanded with some reasoning) just so everyone is on the same page. I've seen some exploits with Tor Browser but I thought they'd be mostly sorted out.

I get that Chrome has some more mature sandboxing code, but I must admit I'm not a fan of how it handles a lot of things including download behaviour (http://security.stackexchange.com/q/145808 and https://scarybeastsecurity.blogspot.co.uk/2016/11/0day-poc-r...), Firefox at least does a better job here.

I agree with the advice for border passage, only thing that makes this difficult is the state of upload speeds.

> Germany doesn't, for example. You have private ensurance companies and you have to chose one.

What? No. In Germany you have public health insurance and private health insurance.

Private is only an option if you make over ~55,000€ or are self employed. Of course there are many private insurance companies happy to sell you insurance. They're in it to make money. Just be prepared for the premiums to increase as you get older.

Public health insurance [0] is available from several different providers, all which basically offer the same thing: you get sick and go the doctor, you are treated without charge.

> When things go bad, you bet the insurance company won't be on your side.

I have never been seriously ill, but for all the minor things (flu, infection) I just went to the doctor and gave them my health card.

I do know people who have been seriously I'll, requiring hospitalisation, and I haven't heard many complaints from them. They're still alive, and not financially ruined or suing the Krakenkasse.

So how exactly will they not be "on your side" ?

The public health system in Germany, and other European countries from what my friends say, is not the most luxurious or expedient, but you get the care you need and without paying extravagant amounts as one would in America.

I know people in America on ACA who pay thousands per year and still have a deductable of thousands. Sure, I pay ~4,000€ to the Krakenkasse through the mandatory salary deductions each year, but I have no deductable for care.

As a young and healthy person it doesn't cost the German government that much each year to keep me alive, but this money goes toward keeping other people healthy and alive. I consider that a worthwhile goal (though I do strongly want them to ban tobacco advertising).

This became really obvious to me in June 2014. For whatever reason I became really interested in ISIS taking over northern Iraq and spent ~10 hours / day editing pages (to the detriment of my PhD).

There were so many sides, a lot of fake news (before that was a thing), and abusive editors. After getting multiple 24-hour bans I realized I was also becoming an abusive editor for reverting edits that seemed "obviously wrong" within seconds. It's pretty easy to emotionally pick a side. Luckily I deleted my account.
wow that is incredibly cheap! I think you could double that and then some.
Yet nobody considers the possibility of upgrading the way the financial system works in particular how money is created and disposed of, which is restricting our ability to innovate on a grand scale. At the moment only major investors have this ability, yet are they the best decision makers to say what project gets funding just because they can make money in order to reinvest?

If Govt's wanted to drive standards properly, how about keeping cars below a certain weight as weight takes energy to move, that would help keep emissions down globally as the number of vehicles on the road continue to increase. How about cars have to be no bigger than XYZ dimensions? A 1930's UK house with a garage couldn't even house todays Mini such is the increase in vehicle size, fair enough humans have got bigger and many roads in Europe were designed to not only skirt landowners boundaries which is why some countryside roads have many twists and turns, but are not always that wide either.

Whilst electric vehicles can move emissions from the road to the power station, the electrical grid still loses power whilst increasing demand on the grid not always at the times planners hope for, and whilst cars can reduce emissions with things like stop start technology, intelligent town planning including co-ordinated city wide traffic lights and designated vehicle routes to handle rush hours would also greatly reduce vehicle emissions and congestion. Lets face it with our smart phone trackers, if an agreed standard was in place you could remove a lot of congestions from towns & cities simply by ignoring the speed limits with multi lane roads and other restrictions that road signs that currently hinder traffic flow.

Building Data Breach Resistant Applications: Bring Your Own Database
Universal Healthcare is when a society is actually "rich" or "wealthy" in terms of truly having more than enough resources to perform essential care wholesale at no cost to patients,

and after that, when society chooses to prioritize the health care of all its citizens high enough to give equal care to all.

This doesn't usually happen, even in societies where the consistent waste of resources exceeds the total cost of universal healthcare.

Considering the resource shortage or surplus, when healing treatments are not denied to any needy members of society, that could be a fundamental marker of civilization, and an obvious measure of which societies are more advanced and which are more retarded.
OSMnx: Python for Street Network Visualization
Ok, I didn't mean to beg the question by simply claiming that people can rationally evaluate statements.

The things people learn are not noise. They have structure, they have hidden consistencies. Whatever you think of the rationality or otherwise of thought, surely you will agree that trying to learn inconsistent facts is going to be more trouble than learning consistent facts which support each other in a cumulative way.

People might identify with the opinions of a politician because they already hold those opinions, or similar opinions. They are unlikely to ever agree with/be persuaded by complete inconsistent nonsense, however often it is repeated. Like, I mean nonsense that doesn't even have linguistic structure or maybe any meaning.
This report reminds me of some of Jeffrey Lin (Riot Lyte)'s work on League of Legends. He found that 1% of players are toxic, frequently acting badly. But that only accounts for 5% of toxic behavior; 77% of bad behavior comes from people who are just having a bad day. That echoes this report's finding that 34 Wikipedia folks are responsible for 9% of abuse.

A related finding is Riot found that toxicity in LoL was contagious; people who played with an abusive player were more likely to be abusive in their next game. The Wikipedia phenomenon of abuse pile-ons seems similar.

Some links for Lin's work:

I've eventually learned to limit my usage of the Wikipedia to science, distant history, and synopsis of works of popular culture while avoiding like plague current politics and ongoing events.

...but thats on english wiki only. As pole understanding english, I despair for my natives trying to use polish wikipedia, because here politics creep everywhere. I remember what a disaster polish's article on Big Bang was before its ridiculous state was called out and went viral in sceptic circles as being plainly antiscientific. Until then it's contents were more fittingly titled as "philosophical and religious criticisms of Big Bang theory". Remnants of those may be found in Article's discussion which filled with philosophical and religious debate about Big bang.
Repetition of a true message to a variety of audiences may be valuable because one gains a better understanding of the common misconceptions and opposing arguments. Which leads to subtly improved arguments and rhetoric. Also there's always the possibility that the message is in fact wrong and that this may be brought to light by new criticism or fresh evidence.
Bear in mind that the term comes from "utopia," which was always an imaginary construct. The original idea was that dystopia would be an equally impossible/imaginary negative society counterpart to a utpoia's impossible/imaginary positive society.

It would probably be most correct to say that societies can be "dystopian" but never "dystopias," because of that part of the definition, but I think we're at a point where that's splitting hairs somewhat.
Would be helpful to provide alternative to some of the Don'ts.

How does one transfer information if they can't transfer anything across the border?

Where should one store sensitive information? An encrypted drive you're not supposed to transfer across the border?

I'm not really sure what a person is supposed to do with either of those two recommendations, especially if we're saying that person is not tech-savvy. I think these will just be ignored because they don't seem very viable and require a lot of background knowledge and planning.

Also, why is Chrome preferred to Firefox? I generally assume Chrome is listened to by Google across the board, and it still lacks something like NoScript. Chrome doesn't seem to do block XSS well, either.

Similarly, why Gmail as opposed to, I don't know, something like Protonmail or the like? Safety behind big company, reliability, viability?

Why Chromebook and not just a normal Linux?

The inherent trust in Google in this list confuses me.

And 1password over KeyPass. It seems every cloud-based password manager has been hacked in a round robin fashion, but I guess this solves the other cloud based problem.
I pretty much follow most of these guidelines already, however I do use the Firefox browser and I wasn't aware it was so inseucre compared to Chrome. Is there a nice guide on hardening Firefox security or am I out of luck because of the sandbox situation?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Congress_(2013_film) is (loosely) based on that and also fits the dystopia description.

It's not clear to me that this form of dystopia is really all that distinct from the Huxleyan one-- the virtuality is just a more effective soma.
Will Russia donate Snowden to U.S.?
The latter. I think it's a 1% business case, basically. I mean, if we can get 80% benefit without excessive cost, then it's obviously a good idea. (And I do use Ansible/Docker and the like, but it's not entirely without friction... which is where the cost/benefit analysis comes in.)

EDIT: Obviously, if you really need clustering, then you need it, but IME people tend to overestimate their needs drastically. Everybody wants to be Big Data, but almost nobody actually is.

HYPER-REALITY [video]
Glancing at the article I think it misses an important aspect. I lived through the creation of the POSIX spec and reported to a CEO involved. POSIX is a political spec.

Customers were complaining to DEC, SUN, IBM, etc about how confused they were using UNIX (think of the same Linux fragmentation today.) Major customer groups got together and said they would switch to Windows if the companies didn't create a stable environment for UNIX work. So the company CEOs got together before the "official" POSIX meetings to decide how little they could standardize (and cut their own costs) while still allowing them to have their important differentiators for sales. They decided that integrating the programming API and some minimal administration aspects would be the right approach. So they then got staff involved in the series of POSIX meetings to decide the spec (not telling them explicitly about the initial agreements between the CEOs)

Really, there is a lesson here. Customers (us) need to force the Linux vendors to create a more uniform experience for us. It doesn't "just happen". There is too much arbitrary variation (with no real benefit) and the learning curve is just absurdly hard for working with Linux (which is old enough that all the basic operations should be quite stable - and mostly quite simple.)
Discovery / Physical Characterization of a Large Scattered Disk Object at 92 AU
There is rampant corruption and greed in outsourcing contract firms. Resources are underpaid, often under multiple tiers of contract companies each getting their 30-50% cut. Occasionally the person showing up wasn't the interviewed person. Some contract companies are body shops, farming out H-3 (training VISA) persons who are effectively slaves since it's illegal to work under an H-3. The H-1B managers strategically build teams of H-1B people and exclude others to grow their presence until some companies (VMware, VISA, etc.) have diversely lopsided populations of contractors. Outsourcing needs to be outlawed, because companies looking for project resources simply don't care about external corruption.

Sure, just two different ways of looking at the same thing. I personally view all employment as fundamental exploitation. Obviously you only hire employees with the intention to extract more value than what you give back in compensation. Some employers are downright extreme in this exercise.

I'm not against all of it. I just appreciate viewing things from as many perspectives as possible, uncomfortable or not.

>> I don't say this to be rude but because you (and Chomsky) claim to be able to
interpret the implications of these mathematical results, but I don't think
you are doing so correctly.

It's alright- if I'm being naive, I'm being naive.

But- what am I missing? You're saying we're doing it wrong- how? For me the
intuition that infinite generative ability flows naturally from unbounded
recursion, like an egg from a hen's bottom, is kind of obvious. Is it naive? I
guess it's empirical, for me at least.

Also, btw, I was introduced to the idea of language equivalence through
Hopcroft and Ullman, so from the point of view of computer science, where it's
been very useful, in practical terms. I guess if you're coming from a
mathematical or theoretical physics background it might sound a bit silly, but
it's allowed us to make a lot of progress, for instance to create a few
thousand different architectures and languages... but maybe I shouldn't be
bringing that up as progress...

Anyway, I don't know- how would you interpret the observation correctly? Where
are we going wrong?

Urban Attractors: Discovering Patterns in Regions of Attraction in Cities
Thank you for your detailed answer.

However, your first sentence is valid for many things, not just ACLs. For example, there are people (ehm, me) who value being able to have Kerberos tickets for multiple principals from multiple KDCs at the same time. This is something that the most popular OS (Windows) is not able to do - and nobody minds. Because for most people, being part of one domain is good enough.

With ACLs, I find it similar. For most people, the complexity is too high, the reasoning about them so complicated, so there's no benefit to have them available, they won't use them anyway. Also, in our case, we just have multiple groups at the root of samba share and that's it. It is good enough. So maybe it is yet another case of worse is better.
I'll be more careful next time around. I remember when ASP.NET came out and there was an impression that you could pay people less in the business world because it was easier. React Native is definitely easier. Possibly I'm biased and maybe that is a more rare viewpoint, hence less well received. Not trying to be sarcastic in any way. Thanks.
Googling that with quotation marks brings up only your own comment- for a moment there I thought you were making a joke about recursion.

I'll have a look at the stuff that comes up without quotes, thanks.
Not sure why anyone would downvote this. It's a valid concern for anyone coming from Europe or other places with universal healthcare and whereas most tech companies in the US offers healthcare, many small ones don't and if you start your own company it's a big issue.
