I am European, don't believe anything like what he claims and thus he called me dumb enough.

Why is his posting allowed, which claimed that European politicians literally are given A SHIT about their citizens?????? Read his post.

Sorry, European politicians give a lot of SHIT (his words) about their citizens and I find it extremely offensive to claim otherwise.

He also made extremely negative and racist statements about refugees who fled to Europe from the war in Syria.

Double standards. Allowing racist posts...
1. The motherboad has a ARC chip, that loads a firmware included in the flash chip. That ARC chip is supposedly inside the PCH (Platform Controller Hub, a north bridge on steroids) - it's efectively in the silicon, you can't remove it.

2. Depends on the motherboard and the BIOS written in the flash chip

3. No. They are already signed.

4. If somebody controls them and ask them to do so. All that's necesary is a LAN connection (or wifi, but only with Intel chips) and power. The HDD is completely irrelevant, as is the OS.

Yup, those rankings are completely subjective bullshit. Something like 50% of the score is based on asking a selection of academics what their opinion of a university is.
So how do you solve the problem of someone getting sick or injured before their HSA has enough money in it? Cause that's the big downside of an HSA.

The entirety of enterprise laptop management. Not because you don't want users to change their laptop. The point is to be able to run updates for the users.

Or consider the remote KVM option. Disregarding security, that is a sysadmin's wet dream. Being able to recover a system that can't boot saves a lot of boots on the ground.
Disobedience would be refusing to take part in such scummy schemes, and making a huge stink over it.

PROFESSED. To twist that on this on its head, and use another sociopath to excuse it is hilarious. But since you ask: no, that's even MORE reason to not accept this bullshit.

'The only way for Japan to progress is to abolish Japanese culture in favour of multiculturalism'.

... is how many people in the other parts of the world would view that position.

Maybe it's hard to understand for 'New World' people, who don't really have a sense of their own ethnicity, but it's very different elsewhere.

'Japan' is not so much a 'nationality' in the modern, Western sense.

'Japan' is the place where the 'Japanese' live.

The 'nation' of Japan is a legal construct around an ethnic group.

While I agree some degree of openness will definitely help the 'GDP' and on some other measures, it's important to grasp that other people will see it differently.

In new 'New World' - we generally focus on culturally secular measures, such as 'the GDP' i.e. a benchmark for the economy, which 'helps everyone' - and it avoids difficult socio-cultural arguments.

But almost everywhere else it's not like that.

I live in Quebec - and the Quebecois are an 'ethnic group' - and so politics here is totally different. We have state-sponsored child care for example - partly due to the very socialist political perspective, but partly because of the coherence of the community: it's really easy to get others to grasp the social benefits. They naturally seem themselves as part of a community, at least more so than the Anglo universe.
Sure, they want to be a monopoly. But they're not.

Seriously, how do they get lock-in of riders or drivers? Installing a second app is a really really low bar. You can't do predatory pricing forever.
Sibling comment explains why point 1 is not relevant in CA. But:

> 2) See the frequent advice here recommending against "cost-plus" pricing.

This is essentially my point -- it's logically and ethically inconsistent to blame Snap for raising prices AND excuse landlords for adjusting prices to meet demand.
On this note, I'm actively seeking JavaScript developers interested in doing some user studies of a compile-to-js language I'm working on.

Similarly, I have a MASSIVE TV on my living room wall, but it's off most of the time. In these days of flat-screen TVs, very few concessions have to be made to have a large TV. It's not like when we needed huge entertainment centers to hold a television. It does not exist at the exclusion of anything (except money, I suppose). It doesn't take away from anything when it's off. It doesn't necessitate cable/satellite television (we have neither).
To me, it's sort of like when people complain about Facebook/smartphones/24x7 connection to the office/whatever being an addiction and such a burden in their lives. shrug I use it to enhance my life, and when I don't want it, I don't partake.

I don't invite people over often, but typically when friends are over we're not watching television or youtube videos, unless that's the point of the gathering (watch a sporting event together, or whatever).
> Why would the Japanese look to a London based publicatio

This is playing identity politics at its worst. You're saying that a London based publication might have vested interest about things, and therefore somebody from a foreign country shouldn't care about their rankings at all.

You don't address how the rankings are formed, if they're accurate or not, or if they're useful in measuring the economic value of the graduates.

You also don't propose another ranking system/methodology/evaluation system. You're basically bringing nothing to the table except "Asia has an inferiority complex" which is a statement you don't back up with facts.
An apt comparison. Not sure who would downvote you for it.
> European leaders have been importing millions(!) of people from incredibly violent, theocratic, illiterate, and regressive regions

We have a large Turkish community in Germany and it turns out that the new people from e.g. Syria are less violent, theocratic and regressive than the 3rd generation Turkish immigrants we already had.

> I'm not even European

Which means you have no idea whats going on. People here care more about their favorite soccer team than immigrants. Right wing party popularity is falling again after having a short peak. The real problems in Europe are caused by stupid "austerity" politics, not by refugees.
> the EU is organized in such a way that it is at an intermediate stage between it being just a bunch of different nations and it being something similar to the USA

There's certainly an argument for that, but I would instead argue that the US states would benefit from being independent countries (this is not as compelling as dissolving the EU, though; we're not at that point yet). The primary motivator is diseconomies of scale -- these huge organizations become extremely inefficient, and often corrupt (look at India and China).
They don't have to. I just wanted to point out non-sequitur conclusion.

Nobody says estadounidenses. The standard, common word in western hemisphere Spanish for people from the United States is an ethnic slur against us.

The problem is once your professional ethics makes this ok, you start to slip further into the rabbit hole.

That's how it becomes OK for a company to facilitate engineering managers to exert pressure where women either agree to have sex with them or suffer career consequences, using corporate institutions to do so.

The headline summary appears to be the only real data in the article (aside from a details on the source that they used for the data).

This article would be much more socially useful and allow for far more insightful discussion if, at the very least, the leading factors were identified instead of (presumably) hidden away for some anti-public-benefit patent attempt.
I object to this.

> European leaders have been importing millions

They have not imported millions.

> incredibly violent, theocratic, illiterate, and regressive regions

This is aggressive against millions of people.

> European politicians don't seem to give much of a shit about Europeans

This is hate speech.

Being 'influenced' by other places is definitely not the same thing as mass migration.

We often think of 'Tea' as a very English thing (and it is in many ways now), but of course it has it's roots in China/Asia i.e. global trade.

The Japanese borrowed ideas from elsewhere for quite some time (as has everyone of course), but they would view 'building Western warships' as something very different from 'importing millions of Westerners'.

Also, one could argue that Japan, for a variety of reasons, was far more isolated than other places.
Oh, plenty of people that oppose the brand of right-wing politics usually denoted in talk about "populist" politics (which is largely authoritarian nationalism) have no problem acknowledg ING that the charge of current economic policies unfairly and unnecessarily increasing the rich/poor gap are true.

It's possible to believe that and think that the program of the "populists" coming to power on the back of it does nothing to alleviate that problem, as well as causing a bunch of other problems.
But that's different. Perl's variant isn't that intuitive.
I'm saying that your post could have been copied verbatim from any number of right wing US sites.
Except the government's "TOS" are constrained by the Constitution. No such constraint on corporate TOS, particularly in the thought experiment where all laws are gone.
True, but there's a big difference between turning away anyone who looks like a cop (as biker bars might do, and is on firm legal ground), versus lying specifically to those people you believe to be cops.

I built a free lightweight service that automates this, and provides a nice CLI tool for interacting with it. Right now it deploys to free hosting on the gitup servers. Repo auth is handled via git-ssh verification with offloaded key storage and individual user roles/permissions.

https://gitup.io

https://npmjs.com/package/gitup-cli

Some commands include:

- `gitup login <username>` : authenticates/registers user

- `gitup new <repo-name>` : creates a new repo at gitup.io/username/repo-name

- `gitup add-user <repo-name> <username>` : share a repo with another gitup user

Repos are private by default. Right now this is a very basic free service but hope to expand the offering quickly including self hosting the repo storage, the key store, web interface, etc.

Would love to know if you check it out and come across a bug or have any feedback for me! Thank you.
Look at this very news article. Tourism from the US is an important industry for many EU member states, particularly the less wealthy. Visa requirements are going to have a horrible impact on the weaker member states. Brussels is more interested in playing political games with the US, increasing their own power, and stomping out nationalist seperatist movements (like trying to imprison Le Pen for posting ISIS videos) than it is with the well being of its member states.

Do not be surprised if desire to negotiate visa waivers bilaterally with the US to restore the tourism industry becomes another common refrain for populist, anti-EU candidates in a few years, albeit one a bit lower on the totem pole than other, more pressing dangers.

Well, given that you have only written two macros in your years of Rust, I would strongly encourage you or the language ergonomics initiative to openly question why this is so. Clearly, Rust has a clever approach but I'm questioning whether it is in fact a usable approach. Too much solution for not enough problem.

Yes, I do like textual substitution. Guilty. This is a common old school low level paradigm. Still, the underlying language and its compiler exist below to enforce the rules on any atrocities I commit with my macros.
So long as you have established your HSA prior to incurring the expense, you would be able to reimburse yourself later for that expense. So for example, if you were to establish your HSA tomorrow and funded it with $1 and then the very next day you got sick or injured, you could pay for those services out-of-pocket and then reimburse yourself with your HSA dollars whenever you had enough money in it at some point in the future.

The "social contract" theory is pretty hard to defend. Lots of people have tried, few have succeeded.

I'm just about to finish up _The Problem of Political Authority_ [0] and the author (Prof at Colorado University - Boulder) gives the social contract an _excellent_ rundown.

TL;DR: There is no social contract. It's a politically useful idea not rooted in moral law.

I also have had countless problems with Razer products. I own a couple blackwidow keyboards and have had a few of their mice. The Naga Epic is littered with complains about the scroll wheel not working and their draconian approach to installing mouse drivers that remind me of how HP's printer drivers pop adds in the system tray. Apparently I was not alone in noticing these issues; ArsTechnica did a scathing story about this:

Vinegar: against: fungi (mould), calcium deposits; shaving brush, bathroom, washing machine / dishwasher once every dozen washes.

Baking soda: against: bacteria. Mouthwash (halitosis), dishwasher (rank smells), shoes (quarter teaspoon, against smelly feet), ... basically everything.

Bleach: poisonous so be careful (no toothbrushes :)). Mortal killing death to everything. Essentially, if something is so far gone you recoil, bleach will overcome. Great if you're Dexter.

Lemon: fish and other foody oils. Bad smell in your skin / hair. CSI episode had a girl showering with lemon juice because she smelled like corpse. I believe them.

These are the rules of thumb of house cleaning.

Nonsensical aside: Acid + baking soda = fizzy, I don't know if they cancel each other out :p

I don't think it's fair to assume that 'lack of immigration' = 'bad economy'.

There are tons of places in the world with fairly massive immigration and/or multicultural societies - that are far worse than Japan.

Brazil is a very, very multi-ethnic and blended society - and it's not exactly a paradise.

In fact - the opposite may be true: Japan is not a huge-huge country, and they hit massively 'above their weight' on so many things.

One could possibly argue that their ethnic cohesion and national identity are actually drivers of their success.

On the whole I guess it's hard to tell, but again I don't think it's fair to always assume 'immigration = good for economy'.

> The EU is established to prevent wars and to keep peace.

I think there are a lot of people in the Middle East and Africa who would take issue with that statement.

Nowhere is perfect, but that doesn't mean we should strive to improve. Not a single country in the EU is anything like the socialist paradise many white, liberal, American millennials envision.
Good question! None of the existing options that we investigated supported all of our requirements. In particular, all the arrows that can exist in the dependency graph are known ahead of time, but the nodes are not. This means that a job can depend on a job that does not exist yet. (A user can add extra feeds to download, and the merge job should wait for them, even if it had been submitted already.) Furthermore we have a few specific constraints such as “per project, only one of job type x or y may be running at the same time”.
How about opt-out on nightly builds and opt-in on production?

By "have" kids do you mean: be the biological parent; finance materially; or spend time looking after? Because solutions start to appear if you separate these things.

For example, one thing to try would be (reverting to) a society where grandparents raise the kids. Then people can invest resources in kids when they're 40–70 instead of 20–35.
> why do I need to declare hyper as a dependency when iron is already using it?

Without commenting on the particulars of the iron API (I haven't used it), it makes sense for library authors to be able to make an explicit decision as to whether or not their dependencies are going to be a part of their backwards compatibility contract or not. You could imagine a circumstance where a library A that you used depended on some library B and wanted to switch, internally, to instead depending on library C. If library A had exposed library B to its consumers as part of a public interface, that would be a breaking change, but it wouldn't be if they hadn't.
"For me, the new Germany exists only in order to ensure the existence of the State of Israel and the Jewish people."

Funny then how Angela Merkel has chosen to ethnically cleanse the German people and replace them with a population whose top geopolitical priority is and has always been the destruction of Israel and the extermination of the Jews.

The new 'refugee' dominated Germany is going to be an interesting place.

Look at diversity as something to be accumulated over a career. Would you rather hire the 40-year-old developer who's worked at one position in one company for the last 20 years, or the 40-year-old developer who's worked at 20 positions at 20 companies for the past 20 years? Who's going to be better able to adapt quickly to your company's problems? Who's going to be able to teach you some new tricks?

So much of what makes us good at what we do is learning from others. If you limit the kinds of others you learn from, you do your trade skills a disservice.

Diversity doesn't need a skin color or a gender or an age- it comes from each new contributor to a project. We just often, as human beings, find it more uncomfortable to get somebody new who's not like us, than go with the obvious "culture fit".

To get to the kernel of the question, the more people you learn from, the fewer forms of lazy-minded sloppy coding you'll tolerate from yourself and others. If diversity is a variable, then quality experience is its integral.
My razer mouse has a twelve button thumbpad on the side of it. It sounds kind of ridiculous but it's an amazing piece of tech. I got it for gaming originally (and still use it for that), but it comes in handy in a lot of regular-work environments.

So I'd personally be happy if there were synapse drivers for linux, as I do work in linux and I'd love to be able to program macros and whatnot onto those buttons like I do when I'm booted into windows. It is a fairly handy piece of software, and I challenge you to find a better seventeen button mouse.
