A) You would assume that Russia would start the conflict, so far it's the west that is pushing it into a corner.

B) Yes this is a far fetched scenario, but as military scenarios go it's the only one that is applicable to Sweden no one else would invade, or attack Sweden other than Russia.

Sweden has a right to be afraid, it's not part of NATO so no article 5, Russia has been shown to respond to EU/NATO pushing into its sphere of influence with uncharacteristically direct responses.

Russia invaded Georgia effectively to kill the pipeline that the EU was planning to build after a Georgian provocation fueled by the west promising to back it up against Russian retaliation.

Russia went into Crimea again after western funded protests to oust a democratically elected government (corrupt or not) that both EU and US election inspectors concluded was elected fair and square simply because they didn't liked the results.

Russia is violating Swedish territorial waters and their airspace regularly, they deem waters that Sweden has claims too as their own, and effectively claim most of the Baltis as Russian territorial and economical waters.

So regardless of how far fetched this scenario is according to you the only 3 possible scenarios in which Sweden would be invaded are: Alien Invasion, Space Nazi's or the Russians, with the latter being the only one that might actually happen.

The page gives some informations about where the money will go:

> This money will firstly allow us to continue our maintenance of GnuPG. We also intend to use it to fund our work on the Gnuk security token. And, one new project that it will support is a book called "An Advanced Introduction to GnuPG." A book for developers who want to integrate GnuPG into their programs, and need to understand the various concepts, the important security tradeoffs, and common pitfalls; for digital security trainers who need to understand GnuPG to be able to make sound recommendations to users; and, of course, for enthusiasts.

I agree with waldfee that it would probably be a very good idea to invest a chunk of that money into UI improvements. GnuPG is not exactly the friendliest program out there, even for those of us who are very comfortable doing everything from the command line.

So it is correct then, the file system doesn't concern itself with normalization. File names are stored internally as utf-8 strings which are just a sequence of bytes.
That only ever surfaces filenames through cocoa APIs that underwent normalization.

I think there is no technical hurdle that is stopping browser manufacturers from downloading the bytecode and showing a disassembled view of it.

Plus nothing is stopping us from popularizing a trend where everybody puts a publicly discoverable debugging hints file (which would make the disassembly easier to read) with a fixed name next to all wasm files.

A past he better damn forget,

That's the winning mindset.

Chorus:

Cuz he knows what to do,

He's just better than you,

He goes to all the right places,

Knows all the right faces,

He only gets what he chases,

He's just better than you.

Has reverse image search on right click ( Search Google image / Search Google for this image [1] ) been removed off late, from Chrome?

Now all I have on right click is "Copy image address".

That's a fairly heavily used feature. Surely, they couldn't have done away with it.

Didn't find any posts of substance in the product forums either.[2]

Some have suggested that removing Google as the default search engine rids the right click of that feature.
However my default search engine has never been not Google.

Hell, the European system (rehabilitative instead of punitive) works so well our prisons in The Netherlands are so empty Norway sends us some of their prisoners, presumably because you guys don't want to 'anticipate' by building more jails. We even used some jails as temporary refugee shelter (for those horrified: prisons in The Netherlands are a lot less stark than America).

I'm just an average woman (edit: that may come off as a funny way to phrase that. What I meant was I don't have the experience of being trans or queer in the work place. Apologies if that came off in a negative way.), but I could not agree more. I worked for a large, centuries old manufacturing comany in their corporate HQ. The work environment turned sour before I left, but it wasn't due to me being a woman. It turned sour for almost everyone. I feel like a lot of these highly established companies have all the checks and procedures in place that even large startups do not. In addition, they have the attitude "We are X. We were here before you and we will be here after you. One individual is not larger than the company." It may get a bit harier for women at the very tops of some of these organizations, but for the rank and file employees it is often a pretty straightforward work experience.

For some engineering scaling reasons small things tend to be pretty tough in proportion to their size; supposedly the core arrays in the space shuttle Challenger survived ocean impact and were readable once recovered.

core was relatively sensitive to temperature and the currents had to be varied to match the temp for optimum performance. Which can be worked around as OP did by not optimizing for minimum power or minimum error rate. Also the more cores the sense wire ran thru the more temperature sensitive the core became.

Exactly, I think they figure that if they have to harvest data themselves and try to beat Google at its own game, they have a larger chance of losing than if they concede on quality by not harvesting data (as much), but try to offset that by being privacy-conscious. And yeah, perhaps they'll still be able to do a pretty decent job that might not give them too much of a disadvantage compared to Google. You often see, I think, that with a few years delay many machine learning advancements can be reproduced offline.

Which ones ? I know most in Europe and USA have the usual non single rooms + central yard. Lost of networking causing more illegal acts. Violence to coerce people into helping bad convicts.

Nordic countries have a reverse philosophy. Prison is a step to be helped into being better, it's comfortable, apparently very effective, but it's a bit unfair for peaceful homeless and victims that have lower quality of life. Hence my "frugal but human" proposal.
My original point was that when it is formal, personal biases, sympathies and stereotypes matter less. It matter less whether you are comfortable talking to me, because all that is important was said during the meeting. When the workplace is infromal, it is opposite. The amount of people who have those biases will be the same at both workplaces, but one of them is organized in a way that makes them matter less.

It is NOT muchness, not when those biases are generally against you. Jovial workplace would be fine if I worked in something women are assumed to be better at, I am not.

It has nothing to do with what kind of people I do or would socialize in my free time nor who is more fun. It has nothing to do with alcohol being male of female thing.

I did not knew requirements changes on project I worked on, because project lead talked about them on beer with buddies. I found out about those changes during code review. The information project lead got from his buddy was that "it will take longer because she wrote bad code". I never got chance to defend myself. This was not singular occurrence.

So, no, it does matter if you are someone who is less likely to be given benefit of the doubt.
There are plenty of rad hard memory solutions out there that have modern interfaces and take up no space relative to the size of core memory. Core memory is a thing of the past and shouldn't ever really be part of anyone's modern designs. You can get rad hard RAM, EEPROM, and NV Flash today for space and military applications, for a price [1].

Bullshit. Wasm can't do anything js can't. Especially with asm.js. Don't try to argue that minified or transpiled js is somehow more readable than wasm. At least it's easier to decompile in theory.

It's absolutely not a "tool for surveillance". How exactly are you going to surveil anything with it?

It's not even a replacement for js, or at least it shouldn't be used that way. No GC for instance. And if you are doing any of the silly things mentioned in your link you have no one to blame but yourself. Like accepting binary blobs without source from contractors.

The link eventually admits you can't do a lot of stuff with js and should use native code. Great, lets just have everyone download and execute untrusted and unsandboxed code. In a way that is completely incompatible across platforms. Maybe we can maked them locked behind "walled gardens" with a ridiculous tax while we're at it. Future generations will laugh at us from their completely wasm based PCs.

Or we can always go back to the old way of doing anything interesting with a browser. By making proprietary, vulnerability ridden plugins. Don't you just miss the days of flash and java applets? Because surely that was a much better solution than wasm.
Labor's Declining Share: A Primer
Sure but we were talking about learning in collage here so you would never just read something but exactly debate it after you read it.

I was fortunate to have a 24 year old high school philosophy teacher a real wiz "kid" who was able to teach how to approach philosophy teaching so it doesn't just end up as ethics class of opposing opinions.

Anyway don't disagree debate is important but sometimes the arguments are book length long and the only way to respond is with another book.
There is a perception in the intelligence community that The Intercept has ties to Wikileaks and the kremlin (based on people with ties to the IC on twitter), so I assume they wanted to make a point.

'The prison contracts everything from security to mopping.'

In the vast majority of American prisons, the prisoners do the mopping. Security is still done by guards, but nearly every other job in the prison is done by the offenders. It's much cheaper this way - for state prisons average starting wage for non-industrial jobs is $0.25/hr. Industrial jobs don't start much higher, but they tend to have a higher cap around $2.50/hr instead of the standard cap of $1.00/hr. There are a few cases of offenders making minimum wage, but these are the exception rather than the norm.

Prisons are run by the offenders - it's cheaper this way.

Enslavement was always mostly done to prisoners. Being it military prisoners, caught fighting for the wrong side, or civilian prisoners caught disobeying some law, that could be just or not. Also, slavery wasn't always hereditary.

The point about the treatment being dehumanizing and undeserved is that this is a completely orthogonal issue. It mostly was, but then, most current prisoners aren't treated that well either.

It's not the same. Take for example companies that are working in PCI DSS environment (credit card companies, payment gateways etc). They handle very sensitive data on their computers, not even getting close to any Google services. Because of that lack of security in OS, Windows shouldn't be used in PCI DSS environment because user can not control where it's data is going to.
This can probably only be expected to get better and better. While JS engines are squeezing hard to get some extra performance, WASM is just beginning its life.

It'd be great if someone would make (when it's technological feasible) a way to integrate this natively in node, something like:

const wasm = require('wasm-native');

(async () => {

const mymodule = await wasm('mymodule.c');

// use mymodule here

})();

If you understand the story of Cornell Corrections, you will get a good understanding of the type of investment that achieves 35% investment returns for private investors on the stocks of companies that enjoy growth in government contracts and the fruits of “privatization.”"
