It seems like a gray area. Accidental Death and Dismemberment insurance generally covers death by homicide, although it can have an exclusion for homicide or dismemberment that occurs in self-defense (for example, war injuries are usually excluded). So in this particular legal sense, the "accident" can be seen as on the part of the assailant, who did not intend to be injured (regardless of their victim's intent to injure). But in general, accident is not a very well-defined term; in this case "occupational injury" may be more appropriate.
Having more and tighter blocks is a distraction, it requires significant maintenance of way (MOW) resources and track time access which is limited to begin with in systems like New York.

The real solution is deploying moving block signals based on Communications-based train control (CBTC) which uses passive rfid balise's placed at known intervals and highly precise tachometers and odometers on the train. This allows any maintenance that needs to be conducted to be done offline, simply drive the train to the dedicated maintenance facility. With CBTC the only item needed to inspect on the right of way is radio system which can be done safely from the cat walk, ie. no need for track access or flagging.

This is what has been done for the Canarsie and Flushing Lines (except they also tie into the existing block signalling to support non cbtc compatible trains). CBTC allows for tighter headway's (more tph) and automatic train operation meaning reducing employe costs (trains drive themselves).

GPS is just a big distraction and should be avoided for mass transit and reserved basically for dark territory PTC.

It's quite real. TechShop once had racks for their brooms and dustpans. After two moves, the mid-peninsula TechShop lost their broom racks. Maintenance went downhill about that time.
If you liked his article, as I did, what are we actually debating at this point?

Maintaining things coincidentally, and thinking in terms of there being such an activity as "maintenance" that you might want to start doing on any given thing if you aren't doing it already, are different things.

Only if you merge it in. The point is the secure environment variables are not available at all in the fork build.

My family cooks hand-tossed pizzas every year for xmas eve (we're not religious at all). Oven with pizza stones. Dad's been playing with the dough recipe fore awhile, tweaking it this way and that...

...but really, we're going nuts with the toppings. It all started when we got a white pizza with grape halves (and other stuff) from the Cheeseboard Pizza Collective.

If I remember it correctly, this year's best pizza was a white pizza with figs, bruschetta (sp?), goat cheese and truffle oil. Barely any topics, but the most amazing thing to put in your mouth.

Another story: Back in college (upstate NY), the local late night food was (of course) many, many local pizza places, all of which were basically the same and thoroughly standard. I once asked them what kind of dough they used, and they said "Pizza dough..?". I took their confusion about the question as an explanation as to why I never really liked their pizza: if they don't care enough about pizza to learn about dough, it's reasonable to expect they don't care enough to make a great pie.

>The only rational response is an organized campaign to convince American citizens to remove Trump from office as soon as possible.

There was plenty of opportunity 6 months ago during the election, when Trump presented it as part of his platform. Are you surprised he is doing what he said he would do to the environmental agencies? What makes you think the people who voted for him are not happy with his policy implementation so far?

There may be some surprised faces come midterms...again. I'm not a Trump fan, but he's doing some interesting things re: the economy (free trade only works if everyone plays fair, so he's trying to bully people). If the economy takes off (which could happen despite his economic policies) it will "trump" any of the terrible things he does to these agencies. Remember, standard Republican playbook is "government is bad", so the base doesn't really mind seeing the EPA things gutted.

The main critics is that it does not support type classes, but maybe that is actually not a bad thing. The discussion is similar to the never ending Go discussion about generics and people do amazing stuff with Go (now I guess critics would say they would do even more amazing stuff with generics).

Not that I say type classes (or generics) are useless, but keeping a language simple (in the sense of keeping the feature list small) has benefits on its own. I did not to complicated projects in Elm, but I watch the language closely and really like what I have seen so far, so I hope Evan keeps up the good work, as I think he has pretty good taste for language design.

Storing secrets elsewhere (for some value of elsewhere that may or may not be better than environment variables) would not have helped this vulnerability: even if the OAuth token were in a file, and it were copied into .git/config, git would still have printed the URL on a failed push.

But storing secrets in environment variables isn't a universally bad thing (which is what I interpret "anti-pattern" to mean). It's a bad thing in certain contexts, including OSes (e.g., AIX and OpenBSD) where environment variables are readable by any local user. But there are certainly uses of it where it's more secure than any alternative (e.g., mosh uses $MOSH_KEY for this and it's pretty sound), and except for the OSes where environment variables are intentionally world-readable, most attacks that would let you read an environment variable would also let you read any other place to store a secret, including a file, a pipe, or a special kernel thing like Linux keyrings.

WOW! That Chicago story is straight up bizarre. Thanks for sharing that.

I'm not sure, though, that dumb train control is necessarily the answer. The Chicago system looks pretty dumb (though I know nothing about it), certainly no more complex than the New York system, but the fact that the CTA system self-reset seems to imply it cannot be safe without a human in the cab. This misfeature is a problem regardless how dumb or complex the signal system is.

Also, my hometown has one of the world's first automatic train operation systems (BART), and to my knowledge it hasn't had a revenue service malfunction leading to a crash since October 2 1972, less than a month after it opened. However, the train control system did lead to a good deal of litigation and project timeline overruns. I think the take-home lesson is that brand new technology is extraordinarily painful to debug and deploy; it's always going to be better to re-use train control that someone else debugged on their railway rather than re-inventing the wheel for your project.

The choice happens at a higher level than such context is available.

Even putting them in text files is far better than environment variables.

Consider how often people log environment variables or even leave phpinfo() lying around. As someone who does penetration tests, I can tell you that it's far more common to gain access to environment variables than it is to read files on the server. The difference between services that didn't have secrets there and the ones that did was a low severity finding that was barely worth logging, and a full remote compromise.
>You're clearly somebody who wants to rely on "rules of thumb" for security. I'm arguing against the entire concept of rules of thumb

This is a case where building climate-appropriate structures helps tremendously.

Thorstein Chlupp / Riena LLC builds net-zero-energy homes in Fairbanks, AK. He has numerous very long (1-3 hour) videos describing his design methodology and process in detail. The homes are designed, from the sub-grade up, to be as efficient as possibly in a high-heating-need environment. He makes extensive use of thermal mass and insulation, as well as design features minimising heat loss, and maximising gain.

At the core of his homes is a a 5,000 gallon stratified thermal storage tank -- a repurposed fuel tank filled with water, and packed in roughly 1 meter of insulation on all sides. Sourced heat, from solar thermal panels, a wood stove, and other sources, is fed to this. It drives both space and water heat for the structure itself.

Walls have 18"+ insulation, all fittings are thermally isolated, heat exchanges are used on air and water transfers, etc. It's pretty impressive stuff.

For Wisconsin, you might not choose to apply all the concepts, but the idea of banking heat (or chill) in the summer (or winter) through some form of mass storage (ground, tank, other), might apply.

There are community thermal storage systems which have been designed and deployed in both Canada and Germany.

There is more meat to the argument than you are giving credit. Peterson has done quite a bit of psychological research on ideological differences and the behavioral manifestations of them. Jonathan Haidt has as well. Both are worth reading and watching.

This may be true for the original meaning of the words but I don't see how today's conservatives are maintainers and today's liberals are innovators. It's probably closer to the opposite.
If the maintainers didn't make the world go around, somebody else would.

Either way those that would have to fill the spots would likely not be as competent in the doing.
Efficient companies require less resources to produce the same amount of goods and services. The resources that are not used to produce goods and services can be used to do other things. This is true even if the company uses the savings to realize higher margins instead of lowering prices.

More efficiency increases purchasing power (or reduces working hours or resource usage, at least) even if there is no competition. Competition just gives an incentive to become more efficient.

This sounds like it could tend to make the games less fun for most players; when randomly winnable games are allowed, the winnable games can be easy.

You're downvoted but I think you're right. Climate change won't wipe out everyone; it'll be a long process that takes hundreds or thousands of years, during which time there will be an enormous concentration of power to war-lords and the creation of a new slave class.

Not exactly. YouTube Red distributes funds in a manner similar to Spotify.

By that logic, I'm excused from obeying their regulations. Too many of 'em. I don't have the resources.
Potentially. But then you have to transfer drivers to the depots where they will pick up the other cabs in the convoy. The financials may work. We'll see. FWIW, driver cost seems to be about 1/3 the operational cost of trucking today. And about 21% of trucking is over 1,000 miles. [1] So that 21% is probably your target.

A very similar article by many of the same authors was reported in JAMA in Dec 2016.

From JAMA Arch Int Med article from today, p. E6:
"...At the same time, 74% of the variation was explained by behavioral and metabolic risk factors alone, while one marginally more variation was explained by socioeconomic and race/ethnicity factors, behavioral and metabolic risk factors, and health care factors combined."

From the WaPo article:
"Mokdad said countries such as Australia are far ahead of the United States in delivering preventive care and trying to curb such harmful behaviors as smoking. “Smoking, physical inactivity, obesity, high blood pressure — these are preventable risk factors,” Mokdad said."

In NYC, and not just Manhattan, New Yorkers are doing better because of a number of interventions initiated in 2001, when Mayor Bloomberg and Dr. Tom Frieden took over as Mayor and Health Commissioner.

Adult smoking is 14% in NYC, 24% in Louisiana. Raising the cost of tobacco contributes more than half the effect of getting smokers to quit and to stop teens from ever starting.

NYS tobacco tax is $4.35 per pack and the city is an additional $1.50. Cigarette sell for at least $12 per pack here.

The tax is $1.08 in Louisiana.

Mokdad mentions Australia, where the tobacco tax is $14 per pack plus an additional $2 sales tax.

The ACA made a huge mistake in not raising the about $1 US Federal tax to a much higher number for the 13 billion packs smoked each year.

Raising the Federal tax by $4 would raise at least $30 billion each year for helping those with high risk preexisting conditions.
