Thank you for the actual statistics; can you provide a source for the legislative change? I found sources for 2005 and 2008 changes, but not one for 2013.

There's also one particular thing that doesn't pass the smell test for me from your German article:

"Less than 1 percent of the total crimes committed by refugees are sex crimes, going against rumours spread on social media that these have become more common with the arrival of hundreds of thousands of refugees."

1% doesn't strike me as a very low percentage of sex crimes, but I googled around for some statistics, and found another article from the same source - https://www.thelocal.de/20160218/refugees-to-germany-commit-...

Here, the title is that "refugees commit less crime than Germans". However, the stats they quote show otherwise - despite refugees being anywhere from 0.8 to 2%, they committed at least 4% of the sex crimes in the country - a factor of at least 2. The article itself says that the sexual assaults reported during the New Year's Eve were not part of this number, so this is a conservative estimate. The article quotes a ratio of 2:1 men over women as a mitigating factor, however, doing the math most favorably towards refugees(100% of sexual assaults committed by men, 40/60 split in men/women in Germany) leaves you with an adjusted rate of ~2.6% of crimes, still significantly higher than their proportionate population.

From that article though I was able to acquire this statistic for 2015:

"The total number of this type of crime committed nationwide throughout 2015 was almost 47,000"

From here - https://www.osac.gov/pages/ContentReportDetails.aspx?cid=170... - I found that the total criminal offenses in germany were close to ~6mil. From this you can calculate the rate of sexual assault for the german population - 47k / 6mil ~ 0.8%. It's not as significantly different from the previous number, but still doesn't support the claim that, at 1%, refugees commit less sexual crimes than the german population.

EDIT: There is also a mitigating factor I just thought of that the newspaper didn't mention; refugees are likely to have a poor economic status in Germany, and are thus more likely to commit crimes for that factor alone. I don't know how to calculate for that as well.
RT factual? You must have not been following their Ukraine coverage. They're likely the biggest liars of all mainstream media. They were somewhat OK until the Ukraine crisis started, that's when they started going full-retard.

RT published an article about the Ukrainian army shooting down that Malaysian passenger plane. I am not sure if it still exists, but I have read it on their web site. Then they quickly started changing their story in followup articles, but never actually published the truth about it (unless they published it since I stopped reading them, but I seriously doubt it).

The RT mentality seems to be "the truth doesn't matter, perception is everything". It is hard to find even a hint of journalistic integrity in their work. This is far beyond being "biased". Yeah, pretty much everyone is biased, but not in the despicable way RT is.
Why do they ask about capitals? Relevant Feynman: https://youtu.be/ga_7j72CVlc

And nowadays we have google for some added prosthetic knowledge. It's becoming increasingly important to grasp concepts well enough to ask the right questions, but knowing simple unrelated facts by heart becomes irrelevant. At most you have to remember that there was something to remember so you can look it up.

edit: can a native speaker guide me on where to set commas correctly :) ?
There are areas like this in most countries. And it's most often linked to poverty, youth unemployment, the stability of the family home and absence of good role models.

But instead people like to blame immigrants because it's easier. It's always that faceless person over there who is responsible for your problems.
Doesn't detect Reddit, which I understand to be affected?
so sorry for your loss
I am curious in community's opinion about it, seems a bit machiavelic (effective no matter the cost). Feel free to say opinions :)
Nobody is interested in generalized studies about immigration or 25 year statistical trends. They want to know what's happened in the last two years or so since the refugee crisis started. So much of what is put forward here just doesn't apply, and blatantly so, that I assume motivated reasoning.
There's another, remarkably simple reason why Islamic terrorist attacks are less likely to be referred to as lone wolf attacks: because they're not. See https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/04/world/asia/isis-messaging... They're pretty much all centrally co-ordinated, even the ones that were initially assumed not to be, including the smaller-scale ones that just target a handful of people at a single bar or involve someone going on an axe rampage on a train.
CS gas is still in use for training. We didn't use ponchos, but full body suits and boots. Extremely hot and uncomfortable. I believe the suit was only good for 30 mins in harsh environments as well.
Just like your example, I bet people will say Toronto.
I think you may have misunderstood the comment you are commenting on. I believe they were saying that members of the socially dominate group who perform crimes are seen as outliers while members of minority groups are seen as reflecting the values of the group.
That's not an argument for using C. There are many classes of bugs and using a safe language only protects against one class.

What I'm saying is there is no excuse not to take that protection.

So test your blood sugar levels when you fast? I've started experimenting with intermittent fasting (36 hour fasts) and bought a test kit just to be sure even though I'm not diabetic. If you are, then you should definitely consult a doctor first and you're probably already testing your blood sugar.

There's a difference between a MITM proxy in front of a huge portion of the web and a password manager that's running locally on a personal machine.

Also there's the 2-factor stuff to protect you when you somehow lose your manager's master password. What protects you when the proxy in front of you misbehaves and exposes your shit?
I've been doing something like this for a while. I have my entire build process as a project on NPM itself. I just have to import it into my projects and write a small gulp project setup. It's very declarative and if I spent a little more effort could probably mostly eliminate. It has most of my preferred tools in it, including dev server setup, statically generated Pug templates, Babel, Rollup with tree shaking, and documentation generation. I've found it's also great for keeping my project setup clean. Most of my project dependencies end up being dev dependencies for build process, and there are a lot of them. This simplifies down to one.

An attack can be lone-wolf at the same time as being an Islamically-motivated attack.

Similarly, an attack can be lone-wolf at the same time as being a politically-motivated attack.
"Live" is somewhat misleading here: the leaks are out there, in crawler caches. Do you consider such source "live", even though it is no longer leaking data?
Really interesting! It's sobering to think about the ways that even in a system not set up for logging you can trace back through these actions.

I was asked to figure out what had happened on a system where some data had changed and 2 parties were blaming each other. After about a hour digging around I managed to piece together a picture of how Person X had got up on a Monday morning, discovered (on their mobile, home wifi) that they had made a mistake on Friday, then logged in on their desktop to fix it from home (first time they logged in at home), then went to work and blamed someone else.

What was remarkable was how many different sources there were to pick up bits and pieces from. In isolation there wasn't much to go on, but once you start the connecting the parts, it's really incriminating.
Although I usually object to the term, the headline is pretty much classic clickbait. Obviously worked.

It's sort of a weird collection.

Some gotchas as you say. (I wouldn't have been able to do that example off the top of my head.)

A few classic puzzlers like the boulder in the boat. (Which I still needed to think about in spite of having seen it before.)

Some questions of the standard consulting interview type where you have to reason through to a plausible answer about how many of something there are.

Some questions to get you to open up about yourself.

Capital of Canada is just sort of weird. I'd have thought that was easy but wouldn't think less of someone if they answered Toronto.

VICE made a pretty good material about no-go zones in Sweden and anti-racist groups that demolish your car, house, get you fired from job for liking wrong thing on Facebook.
I guess I don't understand the distinction of a hate crime vs terrorism. I would think hate crimes are a subset of terrorism and not a lessor charge.
Uh, you guys have passports? (or am I overlooking something really simple?)
No, not like that at the fucking all. I live in Stockholm, I just came today to my home from a friend's place that is in one of these pesky little maps marking it as a "no-go zone". Seriously, there's nothing alarming there at all, it's a very normal area a little bit outside the center with more affordable housing (compared to the center of Stockholm but not even near "cheap") and that's about it.

I've stayed on that friend's house for the whole of January, daily living there and haven't heard about a single crime happening. Asked my friend's flatmates just now and they laughed about it.

Same thing for a friend that lives inside what some maps label as "no-go zone" in Kista, nothing happened there at all for the past year.

So seriously, the alarmism here is very extrapolated compared to the actual risk. Compare to Belgium as you want but be a bit more honest about your utter ignorance instead of just a "And I don't know about Sweden"-trumpesque discourse.
"The number of confirmed or suspected shootings was 20 per cent higher in 2014 than in 2006. The statistics also show that 17 people were killed with firearms in 2011, while the corresponding figure in 2015 was 33."

does anyone else find it strange how they keep jumping around in (what feels like arbitrary) years?
That actually draws a somewhat dire picture.

Even using hand picked numbers to try and alleviate people's fears, they have to admit that the main assumptions about immigrant crime are correct and that many areas are in fact turning into "shitholes", for lack of a better term.
This kind of news about racists and bigots running around the country coupled together with the fact that one person at the border can mess up your entire life for not giving away your passwords makes me want to stay away from the U.S for now.

Don't get me wrong, visiting the US has always been a dream for me and almost everyone I know, since it was this place where someone could go to make something of themselves, you know a place where they accepted and rewarded you for the hard work you did. May be we grew up and now realize that dream was just really good marketing. Who knows, I am just sad I have to read stuff like this too frequently these days.
I just tried some different terms in the test bed on perspectiveapi.com and so far I noticed that 'Podesta' is a very toxic term, the same as 'Pizzagate' and 'Skippy' for some reason.

Kind of strange. Seems like this is more a tool for shaping the narrative than it is a tool for keeping a discussion sober.

Hang on, it's perfectly possibly for hate crime to be terrorism. It's idiotic to suggest a hate crime cannot be terrorism.

Nothing in my comment suggests this isn't terrorism. Saying "it matters to the murderer" can be applied equally to an act of terrorism or to hate crime.

The level of government level censorship in Sweden is concerning. Maybe worries over negative reaction in the native population are used to justify hiding crime statistics, but I think it will lead to a violent backlash eventually.

Refugee centers have already been burned down in several instances, and anti-migrant sentiment is growing.

I really don't see how the large scale immigration going on in a Europe is going to result in a positive result, at least in short term over the next few generations.

I think it's incredibly irresponsible to encourage migration without being able provide productive meaningful lives to the migrants. People are not pets.
Not knowing a huge amount of OS kernels theory, I can still point to Solaris 10 and it's handling of swap as being clearly superior. I had a 16gb ram server giving me problems... I logged in and it was swapping continuously with only 2mb, yes 2048kb, free. Yet my ssh session was not overly lagged.

Under Linux, if there is heavy swapping, forget it, nothing will work well.
I think sometimes it helps to biased when the MSM narrative is going to deliberately shy away from calling things out as they actually are.

But still the facts here speak for themselves. The guy shot 2 Indians specifically because he thought they were 'Middle-Eastern' (i.e. Muslim). It's terrorism and it's good the writer called it terrorism, since the BBC article seems to not use this term.

There are areas in Dublin where children and teenagers throw stones at fire brigades and they are certainly not immigrants. These are old white Irish areas. What sets them apart is high levels of unemployment, poverty and under employment.

Presumably, as you haven't added any source for your anecfact?
No one calls C#, JavaScript and Python memory unsafe because their runtimes are implemented in C. Nor do I expect CF to not use Linux or Nginx because they are written in C. We have to live with C but I expect everyone who does anything safety or security critical to do everything they can to minimize the amount code that is susceptible to this class of bug.

Using a runtime with a safe language on top is a perfectly good example of doing that.

Logic errors causing leaks will always be a threat, but we shouldn't be leaking because of pointer arithmetic problems in custom C code. Not 2017.
Even this admits that rapes are up, then they try to explain it away.
Down voted? God bless the naive.
Use something like JSON-LD, where the payload contains hyperlinks to documents for each data property.

Your client then can machine read that documentation (which can have long-lived cache headers or be immutable, so your client doesn't spend it's whole time re-checking documentation).

There will be a set of definitions that the client understood when it was coded, and by checking a payload for matching meanings, it can consume the information.

If it finds something it doesn't understand, it could even try to take some compensating action (e.g. suppose it's a client which displays images to it's users, and it encounters a new type of image format. It could perhaps look up a registry of javascript canvas image renderers and download suitable code to display the new image).
Yeah, that's for the traditional CDN setup, where you upload files to a CDN that serves these files from their own domain — they don't MitM the entire site! The HTML page still comes from your servers. With that setup you can use Subresource Integrity, yes.

Honestly reading this comment restores some of my hope in people. And it's refreshing seeing the reaction of the comments in this thread.

In order to be a terrorist I think you need a political purpose, an ideology and a plan of some kind. From what I read in this case, this seems more like a deranged person.
Instead of trying to apply the thought-blocking "terrorist" label to more people, I'd work to apply it to less people. Terrorist is often a very convenient way of referring to our enemies- when they start to hit back.
It's not strange if you know why they're doing it.
OT: they mention that they've "gotten reports about some users being signed out of their accounts unexpectedly". I'm wondering how they get any such reports since it's almost virtually impossible to contact anyone at Google.

I am male. But I am NOT white. And I'm certainly not defending the shooters actions. You probably ought not to assume too much about faceless names on the internet and start insulting people.

Read the Atlantic article I linked. It's about the San Bernadino attack. I quote a paragraph below.

No wonder Bowdich didn’t yet feel comfortable asserting that the attack had the political intent stipulated in the law: to intimidate or coerce civilians, or to influence the government. “It’s way too early to speculate on motive,” he said. In particular, investigators are struggling to understand why, with many pieces of evidence pointing toward radical Islamism, Farook and Malik chose the target they did.

Read that last sentence. 2 radical Islamist kill 14 people and injure 22 and it is NOT IMMEDIATELY CLEAR to the FBI that the 2nd condition was met. If that was not clear, how is this clear?
