What makes "journalistsresource.org" a credible resource?

It's located at Harvard Kennedy School of Government which is basically an "elite factory" for the (re-)production of the US political elite -- just look at their alumni [2] and faculty [1]. The US's official policy is extremely anti legalisation of prostitution. In this context, "journalistsresource.org" looks like an instrument of projecting soft power [3], a mechanism to communicate US government policy, but obscuring the origin. I recommend being a little bit more reflective on the nature of your sources.

I also recommend to be suspicious of the term "trafficking" in this context. It's an attack term that is intended to appeal to your emotions, you are expected to think of 7 year old girls being 'stolen' from some destitute 3rd world country and being 'sold' into prostitution in a country where prostitution is legal (eg. Holland). However to a pretty good approximation this doesn't happen. Where prostitution is legal, essentially all (to a pretty good approximation) women who work in prostituion are adults and choose their job, in the same way that others become lorry drivers or carpenters.

This is a crime?

If a prostitute brings a john back to a hotel room, the police can arrest the hotel owner?
That was a bug and can easily happen in native software too.
Yes.

And it's perfectly rational and advisable for prostitutes to move from legal systems where prostitution is illegal (hence dangerous) to legal systems where it is legal (hence safe).
cyanide haha man that would suck

edit: not sure how it would be administered.

Also when you suffocate do you just slowly pass out or is it more violent, probably violent. Maybe introduce some nitrous oxide or something.
>I wonder what's the chance of getting infected when cleaning up used condoms after someone who's infected?

If we're talking about HIV, then it's roughly zero. In theory I guess it could happen if you had a cut on your hands, but then, it's easy enough to take the appropriate precautions if that's the case.
It does not seem to handle dependencies.
Yes, for example in nginx config it is just one word in server definition. And if client doest support it, fallback automatically to standard https website. Really there is no reason not to enable it.
Ironically, Scotland joining might be less emotive. It's historically interesting that Scottish people displaced a lot of the native Irish centuries ago, yet I've never heard anti-Scottish sentiment here.
A two-edged sword in my opinion. GPL always protects the end-user so they can get the source, but it infringes on the creator trying to make closed source software. So as a user I like GPL, but when programming I tend to mostly avoid it. Mine mine mine! :)
No, paying a prostitute is not illegal in the UK.

As for the rest, that's why the OP said "grey area". It's not entirely clear that they were doing any of the other stuff.

See e.g. the 'legality' section in the following Wikipedia article. It's not black and white whether or not anything illegal was going on.

I use the bookmark ribbon in Chrome as a "to visit soon, or return to" list. Stuff I would normally look through the history for.

My most desired feature in Chrome is being able to right-click a link and add it to my bookmarks. Presently, I have to open the link in a new tab/window (using right-click, then T or W) then go to the tab/window, click on the bookmark star, then close the page (i.e. before it finishes loading). If I want to avoid loading a page I don't want to look at right now, I'll right-click on the link, then E to copy the link to the clipboard, then go to a new tab, bookmark it, right-click on the new blank bookmark link, then E to open the editor dialog, type in some suitable title, tab to the address text box, paste in the URL, then click Close. Either way, it just isn't simple.
I really want React for desktop apps. Currently we are running into some performance issues with large datasets and spreadsheets, and being able to offer a performant desktop app would be ideal.

Right now we're considering using .NET and ReoGrid, since Qt is too expensive and we only target Windows anyways.

Looks like it only support cron expressions and no timezones. Moreoever, I don't plan to deploy a Kubernetes cluster in the short term (looks like to be a huge work to have something ready for production). I'm primarily looking for something I can install on the existing systems.
I've been using Flow in my React Native app, but I still find PropTypes very useful, because warnings pop up in the iOS simulator whenever a prop is invalid. I think it's important to have both compile-time and run-time checks.

I recently (5 minutes ago) discovered 'flow-runtime' [1], which gives you the best of both worlds. It automatically generates PropTypes from your Flow types, as well as checking all of your other types at run-time.

Of course I use bookmarks, how else could I remember websites.
You could say the same with minimum wage laws, in that they prevent people from from accepting a lower payed job.

Why would the government decide what job you can and can't accept ?

I definitely want to live in a world where someone's body can't be monetized for any reason. It's the buyer who should be punished though, not the seller.
Because Qt is a huge library. And it's not even really native outside of Linux KDE (though it's the closest we'll get cross-platform wise).
As far as I understand, it means that there must be a relation between a character's sentiment and what the next character can (/should) be for neural network to use this as a feature, am I right?

Does this mean we have unconsciously developed a language that exposes such relations?
Hotels have legal protections, Airbnb frequently violates the rules and I wouldn't want to be the person caught in the middle when a local prosecutor wants to make that point.
I have no Mesos cluster running for now. I'm looking for something I can use on the existing infrastructure. From what I read, it does not support timezones.
I recently (past few years) invested in learning Clojure, enough to get some practical things deployed, but I am far from being a Clojure advanced developer. I wanted to learn a Lisp dialect and am glad I chose Clojure. Rich Hickey is a guru. I don't have any gripes with Clojure but I'm not too deeply invested. Several years ago I was also enamored with Julia, which I was investigating for CPU intensive programs, but never had the time to commit and I was concerned about Julia being too youthful and possibly not getting enough traction. Should I learn D for CPU intensive programs? Also, with Clojure I can make use of the many Java libraries for I/O due to Clojure's good Java interop. Does D have the analogous benefit of tried and tested I/O libraries? Thanks for any suggestions, D has my intrigued.
Also reminds me of parents who are hurried, and say, 'Ok I'll just throw my kid in the stroller for today, even though they are old enough to stand/walk around today... Its just that I'm in a rush and I cant move as slow as them, i need to speeeeed down the streets to do all my errands.'
So the kids are already sitting down when they are 4/5 years of age and the body is really , really trying to develop and get a sense of bone/structure/alignment but is already being corrupted by having been locked into a stroller every day mom/dad goes out for errands with them. Sheesh!

Never thought I'd agree with yummyfajitas on anything, but you are missing his point entirely.

Statistically, gay men are more likely to be HIV+ than the general population.

Thus if a gay couple who were having safe sex in your apartment left behind lots of used condoms, there would statistically be a higher probability that those condoms contained HIV+ semen than with a couple chosen at random from the whole population.

It has nothing to do with people deliberately engaging in risky behavior. For the sake of argument, we might say that the HIV+ person in the couple contracted HIV as the result of a date rape. (Not that I in any way endorse your judgmental suggestion that most people who get HIV somehow deserve it.)
I wouldn't recommend Forms, I worked with it for about 4-5 months full time last summer and it was unstable and unperformant.
I do and have for our support team for our company when we hire newbies. We have a pretty standard "load-out" of commonly used pages and sites, both internal and external, which are commonly used for support calls for the product. A newbie might not have use of every single link, but having a curated list of "this will be useful at some point, just keep in mind that it's there should you run out of ideas" really helps them get past the initial hurdle of learning the ins and outs of the product and the other elements that support it.
I'm a diehard fan of classic bookmarks. I tried pinboard, pocket, and other services, but for me the browser bookmarks with some form of organization works best. I like and use all Chrome shortcuts and nifty features for bookmarks, and even if the browsers seem to be going into a different direction (see Chrome's "smart" bookmarks), as the saying goes they will have to pry them from my cold, dead hands.

(At the moment I have 519 bookmarks in 73 folders)
Pinboard is $11 for a year. There are a million things I'd like to cobble together and I'm happy to cross one off my list in exchange for $11.

I wish there were more services like Pinboard - useful, inexpensive, reliable. Too often it's a pick-two situation.
How good were the girls?
I'm a big fan of bookmarking but I found the browser features didn't fit my needs all that well. So I built my own browser extension which I really like. Hasn't taken off at all and development has kind of stopped for the time being (other work has put it on the back burner) so it's still just available on Chrome.

Using it I hit Ctrl+M (the shortcut to open it) and then I have my top 20 sites key bound. So HN is Ctrl+M -> h. All my other bookmarks can be accessed via a search feature which you can tab or "/" to get to on opening the extension. I hate lists/folders so my bookmarks are all hidden away behind the search function. The extension is built for either the mouse or keyboard so I have a lot of flexibility in how I interact with it.

The site for it is: www.devmark.io
Apparently, Carl Sagan was under the impression that astronauts were given cyanide pills, but NASA and actual astronauts have denied this, pointing out that poison is unnecessary when you can just open the hatch and depressurize your spacecraft.

If a tourist rents a room, goes out to have fun and brings a girl back, you can still track only 1 person (and that's assuming they provided their real ID).
I use diigo. The free version lets you cache the page, annotate the page with highlights, and tag your bookmarks. The extension for Chrome works very well. They also launched some PDF annotation features, but I haven't tried that.

There are far infrared cameras that capture thermal radiation from 9-15 NM band. They nicely allow to see in complete darkness. They do not use CCD but rather microbalometers.

But they are expensive. 640x480 can cost over 10000 USD and cameras with smaller resolution like those used in high-end cars still cost over thousand USD.

Not so much interesting, but it rather looks grossly inefficient and a complete antipattern in terms of data layout, unless Erlang has a very, very capable allocator, that is able to correctly colocate all these linked structures. Still, the bizarre overhead multiplies bandwidth requirements, and pointer chasing multiplies memory access latency penalties.

“every year in the U.S. on average about 21 million jobs are destroyed and about 24.5 million are created,” Andreessen says

FFS.. No. They are not destroyed and created. These jobs are just shifted from one company to another, and most of them are seasonal, or part-time jobs.
Yeah the legality section just repeats what I said above...it's only a grey area in that case because of the configuration and usage of the premises. In this case the guy's house was used as a brothel by multiple prostitutes...illegal, those prostitutes solicited customers...illegal, if they have a manager...illegal, if they have a manager and they were paid...illegal...

It's not a grey area at all. And paying for prostitutes is illegal full stop in NI and Ireland, and is illegal in the case that they have a pimp in Great Britain

Why people are always end up with J2EE-like bloatware? There must be some pattern, something social. It, perhaps, has something to do with the elitism of a being a framework ninja, a local guru who have memorized all the meaningless nuances and could recite the mantras, so one could call oneself an expert.

The next step would be certification, of course. Certified expert in this particular mess of hundred of dependencies and half-a-dozen tools like Babel.

Let's say that there is a law that any over-hyped project eventually would end up somewhere in the middle between OO-PHP and J2EE. Otherwise how to be an expert front-end developer?

> Mexico has a hard enough time to control events inside its own borders.

This is a bizarre hate filled reaction to suggestion that politics within Mexico will lead it to start a lawsuit in
International Courts as a counter to current US politics. As the article points out, there is a chance that Mexico could win the case within the court and even if it did the US would never recognize that.

Still, a technical win could have international political affects. For example, the US has veto power in the UN and control of many international institutions such that they can't be used directly against the US, yet its ability to use international mechanisms to take actions against nations such as Mexico relies in part on its reputation for heeding international decisions.

These are the same sensors which are used in FLIR smartphone-attached thermal cameras.

The legality section doesn’t repeat what you said above. You made the inaccurate assertion that paying for a prostitute is illegal in the relevant jurisdiction, which it is not. I have no idea why you’re bringing up Northern Ireland and Ireland now, as this event didn’t happen in those jurisdictions.

We have no way of knowing that the prostitutes engaged in soliciting. “Soliciting” doesn’t just mean “finding someone to pay you for sex”, it has a specific meaning to do with advertising for sex in a public place. If the prostitutes met their clients by, e.g., chatting to guys online, then that would not count as soliciting.

Similarly, we have no way of knowing that more that more than one woman actually had sex on the premises, or that the prostitutes have a pimp.

So this is at worst a grey area in terms of legality. And it’s effectively straight-up legal, given that the police have made no attempt for decades to target this kind of prostitution via laws against pimping/soliciting/whatever, since it’s impossible for them to construct a prosecutable case.
