it's not that uncommon even in Europe to be honest, if you will find German policeman who had bad day and you drive car with foreign (PL, CZ mostly) license plate you can be searched same way under suspicion of carrying drugs and you can do nothing about it and it's happening occasionally
I'm with you. It's an obnoxious habit that people have picked up on news aggregators, to publicly make an announcement that they closed a page.

Quite possibly time and attention too. Tech execs start by building. ("Why optimize on building my own tech when I can start quickly using someone else's. Let me worry about product/market fit") Over time the drive to optimize takes over, especially as companies look to show better profitability.
I went through LAX for the first time in December 2016. The immigration line was long and took about an hour to get through but other than that it was pretty painless.

> Has anyone heard any more about why scientists performed a mock ritual like that?

Because it seemed like a funny idea at the time, they didn't think they would get caught, and they didn't think it would receive as much media attention as it inevitably did. They were laughing right up until CERN IT identified two of them as watching the original uploaded video from their network suspiciously early.
Contrast this with my employer's advice: cooperate fully with the authorities, our lawyers can and will defend the company, we are more concerned about your safety.

Telling people to work travel and then telling them to not bring work data seems like you should have told them not to travel at all?
Except they can't tell if they are actually working on their problems.
> I have yet to meet a single person who even pretends to understand why he have gendered single occupancy bathrooms.

If there's space for two single-occupancy bathrooms, I think most people prefer it. Women don't like putting the seat down and think pee on the floor is pure carelessness. Men don't like putting the seat down and are grossed out by period blood. If it means the bathroom has a urinal, even if single-occupancy, I think most men would prefer that.
The public transportation is great here, but where I live most families still have cars. Not all of Japan is Tokyo.

Japan has a vehicle per capita of 591 cars per 1000 ppl vs the US 797/1000, which is a lot lower but also far far from "nobody has a car".
And if we're honest, Dublin is a better airport than Shannon
It seems like those people didn't feel the electoral college was problematic. Otherwise, voting would have exposed the vast discrepancy between popular opinion and the college. Even if Hillary had won, that demonstration could be used to spur reform of the election process.
True, however when you're leaving the building, the most common case ought to be that you stop being able to ping the upstream router. Easy for the phone to find out, since single-hop ICMP doesn't need a long timeout.

There are other possible failure modes, of course, but fixing the common case has value.

Can such thing really improve security?
I remember the times when Desktop Firewalls like ZoneAlarm got popular, there were dozens of tech talks that showed how baby simple it was to bypass them. I think it was common sense these times that this tools are nothing than SnakeOil. They are useless against real Trojans and only cause a lot of work for the user with all that false positives. In worst case it's blocking applications from self updating which can lead to a less secure system.

Has this changed nowadays? Especially when we are talking about little snitch which has a really good reputation like I noticed the last years.
Nor should it work that way automatically, IMO. We need a certain amount to spend on X and an amount to spend on Y.

If X becomes cheaper, the right thing to do (IMO) is to return the savings to the people, not to spend the surplus on Y or find a new Z to spend it on. If the people want to choose to spend more on Y or Z now that they've seen the savings on X returned to them, that's perfectly rational possibility, but shouldn't be automatic.

Good point. Especially the cost part. If you commute less than 100KM and plugin at work ... you could go months without buying gas and paying about 25% of the price of gas for power. So you would really feel the pinch when you needed to buy gasoline.
If you're going to profile and be proud... At least profile the correct demographic.

Well, that's the story at the moment. The question is what will it turn out to be once the analyses are repeated with more data.
It doesn't. I didn't say it is a good procedure. But let's be real, very few get detained or need to give up more information than me.
> 6 doors and separated passenger space

> small size

These are conflicting requirements. The minimum size for 6 doors is probably about the size of a long-wheelbase Transit van, only a little smaller than a normal bus.

I'd love to see someone try the commuter multi-drop-mini-bus system; it's implemented informally in various ways already that don't have multinational branding. Won't help in really dense cities like London where traffic is at walking pace, but potentially useful in other places.
Of course, these days the Google Drive storage limit is shared with GMail so you also can't receive emails until you're back below the 15GB limit.
I find that seeing about how someone else thinks about / breaks down a complex problem is helpful. Sometimes you can also see where the speaker has a blind spot - an interesting thought experiment is to consider how you'd compete with their company.
Come on, this is just a blatant PR piece. Lot's of people do lots of things to fund their struggling startups, but very few get a full article plus advertising photos on the BBC. Well done guys, kudos, but come on there is no story here.
Less is more. I think this case is a prime example of how chasing higher revenue gets you in trouble in the long run. Amazon also suffers from this, just look at the recent cases of fake products.

Having seen the multiple-process-resource-hogs that tend to come out of Electron it is easy to dislike it, but I have always wondered about one thing: how does Visual Studio Code avoid these pitfalls? I have never once seen VS Code spin up more than one process or hog memory. It is built using Electron, is it not? Is it some fancy hacked-to-death version of Electron that fixes these issues to the point of not being considered "Electron" at all? Or are they just better at utilizing the tool in a way that works?

If the former, I am on the "Electron sucks" bandwagon. But if it is the latter, the fact that there is even just one app that manages to use Electron to produce a product that does not suffer from these commonly cited issues would make me hesitate to discount it as a whole.
I've been working on a program that does this based on lpfw. It's not ready for release yet but there's a preview at https://fireprompt.com. I'm hoping it's not eclipsed by OpenSnitch!
It's a 90 minute wait iff people execute the handoff like passing a baton in an Olympic relay race. In reality, driver 2 is going to wander off to run a quick errand or get some food (because they can't be sure driver 1 will be ready to drive off at 30m00s000ms), and there will be significant "slippage" in the queue draining.

This ignores the other parties, which can explain most of the disparity. In Michigan, other candidates got about 1% of the vote in 12 and 5% in 16. Even if it helped Trump win, labeling them "spoilers" just ensures that our terrible system will have this happen again.
Not quite. The 25 km/h limit is just for the bike's classification as a "bicycle"; electric bikes that go faster than that just need to get registered and are effectively treated as mopeds under traffic laws.

that seem pretty reasonable compared to third world country like China where I had to pay like 110€ for yearly FAMILY visa, because why not charge husband of Chinese citizen visa (plus had to renew it each year like some newcomer student) and you can't even work with this visa anyway, according Chinese government you should be freeloading on your spouse

now compare it with my wife in EU - 5 year residence permit for free, of course including work permit and also because she is taking care of our child she got free healthcare insurance
What is a call record, and who gets to define what it is?

When data changes my gut reaction is "better or worse reporting until shown otherwise", and "what are they counting?"
You post the classic cautionary comment but reviewing your sources, none of them at all seem relevant:

"Genomic responses in animal models do not mimic themselves in humans" - source? Thalidomide is just a random example of a traditional non-genetic treatment. Specifically the CRISPR mechanism clearly has no precedent of failure, as the Chinese only recently began human trials. There's no precedent of success, but there seems to be no reason to believe it won't work, since it works fine in vivo in other mammals.

And the Lowe link you provided is complaining about in vitro testing; this was in vivo. As far as I can tell, it's exactly what he suggests needs to be done before there's any hype.

If your point is simply that many things have been tried and failed in the past, sure, that's common knowledge. But CRISPR is not a similar approach, there is very little precedent, so IMO optimism is just as warranted as "extreme caution".
I suggest you look up the statistics on percentages of extremists who are/were white males.
Is there any real change in the entry procedure to the US after Trump became president? I wouldn't think so.

If you were happy to visit Obama's US, you will hardly find any difference in Trump's US.

Those "extreme presidential powers" were not in the system design.

They were submitted as (sometimes secret) change requests by every president post WW2 and accelerated by presidents in the last ~20 years. Unfortunately, the code review team didn't remove the changes and tacked on their own during the process.
I don't use it (I'm a big fan of the trackpoint), but the trackpad's surface feels very pleasant. Can't comment on the accuracy, I probably wouldn't even be able to properly judge or compare it to the MacBook, but I've heard good things from other people.

Tesla's top models currently have a range of about 300 miles on the highway. So today you are only 50 miles from your point being strongly debatable. Why do you think 350 or more miles will not be achievable before Level 4 self-driving cars?

I never understood this. What's the difference? In both instances, money is being earned.
I work for a mobile design and development agency. We get many inquiries from clients with zero budget and a "million dollar idea" that is doomed from the start. When they hear the cost, that's usually the last we hear from them.

Looking at the app, I really can't believe they spent this much creating it. My immediate reaction is it's a bad outsourcing job with clipart purchased from Fiverr. Also, the screenshots and App/Play Store presence is just awful.
Not really, no. Especially when you're used to just walking through an automated machine which I get to do for most of the time when I travel.

First I thought I would bring my computer with pirated movies on it but when I read up online I decided not to bring a computer at all.

> They sound similar to change data capture in SQLServer.

Yes. There is a difference, though: SQLite is embedded, and there is zero latency between an application and its database.

This means that change notifications can be emitted synchronously right after a committed transaction, allowing the application to process the change before any other change could be performed.

This makes it much easier to get a very robust solution for a whole class of database synchronization problems.
I adore Berlin, with all of its monochrome rectangularness covered in colorful and fluid graffiti.

Did the travel ban affect you? Are you from one of the six affected countries? I read a lot of commentary about how the travel ban has influenced travel decisions, but I'm not seeing much practical impact to the vast majority of travelers.

Everyone has a right to vote with their euros of course, but I am curious if a single traveler has avoided France because of their policies in French Guyana, the Magreb or Sub-Saharan Africa or avoided China, Turkey or most Middle East countries because of human rights records? How about avoiding Italy or Greece because of widespread corruption or the U.K. because of the Brexit vote.

Avoiding travel because of political disagreements would mean that people would only visit places that are exactly like they want. It's geopolitical inbreeding.

Just a point of fact: Trump isn't denying climate change, he's skeptical of the impact from human activity.
How Project Management Tools Can Improve Business Performance
I think parent commenter talks about crowdsourcing labeling, not software.
Unfortunately it is not available for Linux.
So, many comments here target US or Trump in particular. But in fact, as many noted, there is not real connection – it started long time ago. Also, I bet, there are quotas (e.g. number of people) to be detained, so they have to fulfil it.

Also, US is just an example here (because many conferences are held in the US), but also there are stories from the UK, for instance. From my point of view, the problem is that with social networks it is extremely easy to get access to your whole life – it is already pretty easy to identify person on the facebook, for instance (right now there is no way to prove that it is _exactly_ you, but I am pretty sure they will be soon). So, with restrictions on such monopoly media (and I've heard it is already harder to register on the Facebook), it is very easy to end up in a situation where we will get "human score" (similar to credit score, but in the digital world), which will be used in such situation.

And even the bigger problem is that it might be needed for a work, for a loan application, etc, so you wouldn't be able to do all this without it (or even "to apply for a visa your score should be higher than 3.0". My predictions are that governments will try to work more closely with popular platforms trying to emerge such (there were few stories than people were detained because of tweets) metrics, and to broad access not only from your phone, but from their device, just your user profile.
