I've never heard the media describe the leadership of North Korea as crazy. However, they repeatedly use the word 'unpredictable'. They apply that same word to Trump.
All I'm saying is, without reliable double-blind studies, changing LSD's status from an illegal substance to a "medicine" won't fly politically.
I see. Your point is that the principle of free speech is something different than the 1st amendment and the authors of the amendment messed up and allowed a loophole.

> filiming police for no good reason

The existence of the state is reason enough - that's the whole point of the first amendment protections for the press.
"Seems like the guy calls himself a "copchaser" and is used to actuallly chase police officers, annoyingly record their action and make sure to insult them while teaching them a lesson about how to do their job. And he calls all that "standing his ground"."

That's what I was seeing in the video I watched. Dude is a disgrace to activists. Last thing we need is more people acting like that toward police in a way that makes corporate media regularly. Voters would be pushing against police accountability more than dealing with police corruption.

Best this stuff is done in a neutral, polite way from terms used (eg CopWatch vs CopChasers) to how one speaks to the cops (respectfully). Activists need the moral, high ground against the cops when viewers or juries start asking where the problems in a confrontation really started. "And if he acts this way on camera, what might he have said off camera to them?" they'll ask.
And why shouldn't they? Police departments and city officials across the US routinely lie, obsfucate and remove any sense of accountability for police officers who commit crimes or make mistakes.

Look at the case of the murder of Laquan McDonald in Chicago. The lying and stonewalling is a common occurrence. It's not just a few bad apples, it's a bad system that promotes escalation and grants power without accountability.

It took the prosecuting attorney 15 months to charge the Chicago cop (Van Dyke) with first degree murder. And this was long after the family resigned to believe their son was at fault. It took a whistleblower to come forward to start a long figh for the truth.

After the courts forced the police to release the videotape to the family, whereas the City Council immediately votes to give the family $5 million with the agreement to keep the tape private before they even filed a lawsuit. It took someone else getting the video for it to become public and the cop to be charged.

Being annoying or insulting to governmet employees isn't a crime.
There is a mindset amongst many that police should never stop, question or even talk to people without some level of suspecion of wrongdoing. They see most any checkpoint as a threat to basic libery. Such "chasers", rather than the silent watchers who dont scream at officers, are extreemists who take laws and constitutional constructions far to literally.

"It's not "get data on it" that's being flagged, I suspect, it's "who cares what editorial thinks?". Because as a recipe for success, riding roughshod over the opinions of 2000+ people who make all the content in your product is not a great one.

What's more, BBC News editorial has reasons to be wary of pure data-driven decision making. It's not a pure Buzzfeed competitor -- it exists to serve the public purposes, not to drive eyeballs to ads. So arguments like "the data says nobody is reading our Welsh-language output, why don't we stop doing it?" or "The expensive pages covering Cornwall are getting terrible numbers, who care what editorial thinks, CLOSE 'EM DOWN" are not the slam-dunk you might be imagining.

That's not to say there isn't useful data that can be put at the heart of the newsroom to try and capture things that matter to the BBC, as BBC News is well aware. They're building tools right now to support that [1]. But I think any editorial team will always want a way to say to its audience "we think this is important right now and you should know about it". So a constructive approach might be something more like "here is the most effective way you can highlight news to audiences" not "we don't care what you think, people don't like the breaking news ticker so it's gone, welcome to cultural change granddad".

this is good analysis. Google does things that make sense for Google. unfortunately because they are prominent many companies that aren't Google copy Google's methods uncritically. it's a disaster. I can't tell you how many times I've cringed at small tech companies that run a glorified e-commerce website interviewing candidates as if their engineering staff is 1000 instead of the 8 that it actually is.
Being a douchebag is still protected by the First Amendment, though.

Publicity is probably far more valuable in this case. Even if he loses the suit he will be able to brand himself as someone who stands for common sense rights and get even more publicity eventually.
"Crazy" suffices to say that the behavior set is far outside of regular norms as to be unworkable with normal reason. It doesn't have to imply the actor is schizophrenic or anything.

It doesn't matter if the actor, behaving rationally towards his ends, has ends that are absolutely incompatible with ours, or if he's acting irrationally. [edit: I mean it doesn't matter from a defense of his behavior standpoint. It's fine to call him "crazy" if his ends are absolutely unacceptable]

I agree with the critique of the piece - no one thinks North Koreans are inferior as human beings. We think they've been fed a ubiquitous dose of propaganda their entire lives. We think that a dictator, so very isolated through years of behavior that necessitates (and invites) it, lacks any sense of acceptable end-states for his country.

I also agree that it's misguided to dismiss him as actually crazy. One must treat him as a rational actor - moves you make will have moves he makes. There is rationality involved. May be shitty rationality, may be myopic rationality, but it's rationality. You move warships towards North Korea he's not going going to launch Rubber Ducks at you. That'd be crazy. He's not going to poop his pants and eat the feces on live television and announce he's a little princess.
> HN would be a better place if these people could entertain some humility, perhaps a little bit of self-doubt, perhaps an inkling that other people may know something they don't, and that the world is not always the black/white, yes/no certainty that they seem to experience. Or we can just drown in the continual "This is stupid! they should do X" style comments.

I disagree with this one. The best, most productive discussions I've seen on HN are those where people have been clear about their views and expressed them succinctly without the hedging and careful politeness that's expected these days.
One can a lot from this list, this is super valuable for my needs!
> The React team can't be held responsible for the amount of crappy advice on the Internet.

The React team should not be held responsible, but these problems do warn people to stay away from the React ecosystem. If the React team doesn't want people to stay away, it's in their interest to do something about it.

> And cognitive overhead is the nature of the beast with all frameworks.

It is, but they vary wildly in (a) the total amount of cognitive overhead required, and (b) whether you need to deal with that overhead before you even begin, or slowly, over time, as you develop your app. Modern JS development front-loads all of that overhead, which makes you handle it before you're even sure that you want to use a given tool in the first place.

The real problem is that developer (who is a graduate student) doesn't understand how to do use the kernel structure. You can't just have "your own linked list". In order to do what you are doing, you have to add a list_head structure to the struct sock structure just for that linked list, and that struct list_head has to be initialized when the struct sock is initialized, and list_del() is called when the struct sock is released --- oh, and you need to handle locking properly to avoid races between adding a struct sock to the list and removing it. Or you can use RCU, but you do need to avoid races one way or another.

It's not hard, but you do need to understand the idiom. Why isn't there safety mechanisms? Because the kernel is optimized for speed, and instead of adding run-time checks which can be expensive, there are various debugging tools, including slab poisoning and KASAN to find such issues.
I don't know about other countries but at least here in the Netherlands, yes you can.
The analogy with fractals is beautiful, and quite illuminating IMO.
> actuallly chase police officers, annoyingly record their action and make sure to insult them

As for the insulting part - sure, that's always a shame.

But what's wrong with following bearers of state power and recording their actions? That's precisely in the spirit of the first amendment.
It's easy to counter criticism if your product has no canonical ways of doing anything. Just say the critics should use some other component or approach for every single thing they try to do. Of course, those other components/versions may have an entirely different set of issues, but since you don't have to deal with those yourself or consider trade-offs or even be consistent over time in your replies, you make the original point sound completely invalid. Just throw a bunch of options into the conversation and shift the burden of proof on the other guy. Yay.

I find it especially ridiculous when people use future versions of stuff to deflect high level criticism of some ecosystem as it is right now. It is one thing when the critic has a specific issue thar is a show stopper. It is an entirely different issue when someone describes their overall experience.

You don't know how they sold it and they're certainly not trustworthy enough to believe them even if they say that's the way they did it.

Until all companies that trade in user data are required to disclose how they do so by a regulatory body, and users have an access to an example "slice" of the data being traded, this will continue the way it does, because the incentives are there.

Do we extend this same courtesy to the PHP team? Or do we treat it as indicative of something?
I respect the European to keep American tech giants on their feet.

Google is really the new evil Microsoft.

It is building it's walled gardens and enabling in monopolistic activities.

Apart from Gmail and Google I don't touch anything that Google makes in the fear that it will be half baked and will be cut the year after.
Personally I really like using some of Azure's "Basic" plans that are typically extremely cheap (<$10/Month). They usually are buried in their website and aren't recommended for production use, but get the job done just for debugging and testing out code.
Abusing OWASP with 'Insufficient Attack Protection'
Individual impersonators are not the threat. It's the glut of impersonators that will present the real challenge. It would be very helpful to see a study done with these platforms as they mature to determine what percentage of the population is more easily fooled by these.

For example, as an individual with hearing problems, I may not be so easily able to determine a synthesized recording from an actual recording - for a short period of time. With longer recordings it may become more obvious.
"people who literally put their lives on the line to serve the community"

They don't. Most I've met did it for the money, power, and prestige. Or it was a family thing. Whereas, those three things aren't given to convenience store clerks in high-risk areas ensuring people (including cops) get gas or food in the middle of the night. The respect you give certainly isn't a merit thing since it just goes to a few positions in the workforce that operate at high risk.

There is a lot of Rust evangelism on HN, but one ting they do seem to have grokked is that quality of documentation is important to building a userbase. If all that's out there are a series of out of date blog posts then that's the level of documentation.

Plus, I'm fairly sure I remember (but have no citation for) the Rust team reaching out to try and get the community to update old blog posts (or at least put in links to newer documentation).
Few irrational people attain position of power and even fewer retain it. The conquest and perpetuation of power requires rationality and the ability to strategize. You are the one making claims thus the burden of proof is on you. What proof do you have that the NK leadership is crazy? Because the media and the US government says so? Have you ever tried to put yourself in their shoes and identify their motives? How do you know their behaviour is not a rational strategy to perpetuate their regime for as long as possible?
I seem to remember the "genesis" (hee hee) was the author having a hard time configuring a self-hosted server despite being knowledgeable as an admin. So I thought email was part of that goal.
I've been hoping for a while that we'd get this kind of movie. And I do think we're getting closer to it. There are a few recent movies that provide hints about how a film could successfully capture a hacking experience:

- The research scenes in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.
- The texting scenes in Personal Shopper and House of Cards.

Does anyone have any other recommendations of close-to-the-keyboard style portrayals of communication, research, and hacking?
I find it strange that you seem to be ignorant of the basic concepts of obsfucation and plausible deniability, yet act as though you are knowledgeable of IT security.

Do you also believe spies in the physical world use secret entrances with brass placards placed above them?

People like you are the reason why organizations fail at security.
> You can legally get as close as a foot to an officer provided there is no interference. So for instance one can get a few feet from a scene as a member of the press where an officer is ticketing somebody for an offence.

Does the person being ticketed have no rights in this situation? I think I'd be pretty upset at the reporter if they got all up in my business like this.

Who says that only 'businesses' are and should be the ones reporting news?

>>Being annoying or insulting to governmet employees isn't a crime.

Sure, but distracting and harassing law enforcement officers while they are trying to do their job can be grounds for obstruction of justice. It's one thing to record them from a distance, another thing to constantly hurl insults and condescending remarks.

Don't get me wrong, the police in America have serious problems. But this guy seems to be approaching the issue in a bizarrely antagonistic way. I don't know if his arrest is justified but it's definitely not surprising given his behavior.
Except that was a lie - it was rounds fired from a rifle, not a 'machine gun', and that's STILL a pretty flimsy excuse.
We independently reinvented an adaptation of this algorithm for Monte's "simple" quasiliteral, which does simple string interpolation and matching. The code at https://github.com/monte-language/typhon/blob/master/mast/pr... is somewhat similar in appearance and structure to the examples in the post.

def name := "Hackernews"
# greeting == "Hi Hackernews!"
def greeting := `Hi $name!`
# language == "Lojban"
def `@language is awesome` := "Lojban is awesome"

A quirk of our presentation is that adjacent zero-or-more patterns degenerate, with each subsequent pattern matching the empty string. This mirrors the observation in the post that some systems can coalesce adjacent stars without changing the semantics:

# one == "", two == "cool"
def `adjacent @one@two patterns` := "adjacent cool patterns"
Can you explain how that would further the goal of social security?
I think that yes, privacy is dead, to those that do not value it. Would you trade your gmail history for a doughnut? If yes, then it is 'dead' and not worth much, if no, you still have it, mostly.

The thing to look at it the economics of your privacy. Why has it died? I think it is because your privacy has some intrinsic value to it. Averaged over enough people and a long enough time, it has some average dollar value, like a lotto ticket. However, it then becomes a commodity like all others, and subject to markets and their rules. If everyone is collecting your privacy and data and then trying to sell it, who is the buyer and what is the price? Who is buying the data from Bose and their scummy headphones and how much are they paying per 1k people?

To me, it seems that the market for 'data' is not at all transparent and that is why there is a grab for the data. If these kinds of companies can convince a potential buyer that their scummy headphones data is worth the price, then maybe the buyer can take it and make more cash off of it. But I think that since the markets are so inundated with people's 'data' that the price is not worth much at all. I mean, when I look at 'targeted' ads or whatever, then all I see is nonsense. I think that currently, the data is worth far too much due to the lack of transparency in the market. Once everyone realizes that humans are too random to target marketing towards, then the prices will drop and the bottom will fall out of the market. The real money, as Apple and the Goog have seen, is in walled gardens that force you to buy their products above all others. Currently, we are in the 3rd round of this match, there is a lot more fighting left.
I'd prefer everyone comes out of such encounters alive.

At the point these folks thought someone might have a weapon, the prudent thing to do is hold back and carefully plan your next moves. One of the first things would be to verify your suspicions - that there was, in fact, a gun.

They knew going in that folks hold things that can be mistaken for guns. Like phones and a myriad of other things - even during normal activities like running. Protocol should reflect that knowledge and err on the safety of everyone. Things change if there are actual shots fired from that direction, but caution before such time.
How would that help? If Facebook has any patents on React, it's quite likely that preact is violating them. If you're using React then you're protected by the patent grant. If you're using preact then you aren't.
Funny ... you work your whole life and pay into a system that is there for everyone, and then people criticize that you take part in it when you are given the right to do so. Blows my mind. It's very much like the 2nd Amendment - people are all up in crazy town because you exercise your right like the 1st or 4th to express yourself and what you believe in. Hypocrisy.

It's called probable cause and it's recognized by the courts in any other police interaction except for checkpoints.

And it's backed by the 4th Amendment, which is neither a law nor a rule. It's an acknowledgment of an innate natural right that all human beings have which includes the right to be left alone except when there's reasonable suspicion or probable cause.
Not to be too cynical, but in my case volunteering resulted only in troubles and no growth at all. What I ended up beside some singular cases was fighting with people that internally resigned on something, accumulated bad habits but still narcissistically viewed themselves as perfect. The most brutal outcome was that the people I helped for free and dedicated a lot of time to improve their life, changed for much worse once they "saw the light" and their life improved - from a resigned person turned into a self-confident predator, throwing away most of human decency, trying to outright buy me or boss me. I really started to be cynical that perhaps there is a reason they were down and it was for the better... Then there are a few romantic, pure souls that are taken advantage of by everyone around them, ending up in the bottom - those are rare pearls that make it somewhat meaningful.
It would appear the article's figures support that claim.
Even better, targeted attacks against a person to collect their voice could involve contacting them for an opinion survey regarding a product, survey, or political opinion they value. Gleaning something like that from social media profiles is fairly easy.
