> That a new fridge is more energy efficient than an old one is not the point, because, of course, you can always choose to have a new one while the old one still works, for whatever reason. The point it: that things was built in a way that it lasted 60 years.

Isn't it possible that the complexity that makes something energy efficient also causes it break sooner?

Apologies, I didn't notice the different username. However I disagree - when the whole point is relative ease of use, having experience in just one is meaningless.
The time period for consideration is "...within the last 12 months".

Considering how important the CCP (Communist Party) considers information oversight and control to be I'm surprised it took them this long. During the time I was in China getting around the 'Great Firewall' was so routine that most didn't really give it a second thought.
Try turning off all of the malware and search features. Windows defender will run on every file, folder, or executable you touch. Play a movie with VLC? Here let us scan VLC, every DLL it depends on, every file you have opened with it, and the entire file you are about to open. They also bundled Cortana and Bing with search, which means you can get ads in your search! But also means it makes like twenty web queries every time you search. Also search indexes like non-stop for no reason I can fathom, which is a shame because I actually liked the windows 7 search features (which are now bundled with this ad serving, resource hogging, shit).

Also, don't trust task manager, it lies about utilization if you aren't running as admin and don't have it configured correctly.
Ah, I see you follow President Trump's incident response methodology.
Yeah, I wanted to get an RFID-blocking passport wallet and I searched on Amazon, only to find thousands of options (the vast majority of which I assume have never been physically produced) with different slogans in different languages, which looked to be the output of a script that plugged in things into a template.

You can see for yourself:

https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_sa_fashion?url=searc...

Many of them look quite plausible but if you keep looking you come across bad transliterations from other languages, extremely specific "I [Place|Activity|Relative|Pet]", "World's Hottest [Profession]", and lots more.

The most implausible to me is that they have "I love you" in foreign languages but not always using the foreign languages' actual writing system, sometimes using unofficial transliterations. (Although apparently people are willing to get tattoos of this kind of thing, so maybe they're also willing to buy passport holders with it...)

I bet this company is still small potatoes compared to the overall scale that the script-assisted product listing game can reach on Amazon.

Another thing was a company that produced custom e-books of Wikipedia articles about different Amazon search terms, so if you searched for "hypochondria" or something, they would be selling an e-book about hypochondria, consisting of a print-out of the Wikipedia page about it.
Here's an interesting article speculating on reasons why policy-makers have an inherent incentive to deny that inflation is taking place (with special note on how it relates to housing costs):

> The four lowest performing companies are all telecoms: AT&T, Comcast, T-Mobile, and Verizon.

Furthermore, using a "slow" language for big parts of the code can make the whole project faster: size matters as an input into performance. A compact bytecode executed by a small interpreter thrashes the cache and memory hierarchy a lot less than tons and tons of ahead-of-time-compiled native code.

Use high-level interpreted languages to make your life easier, but also use them to make the page cache's life easier.
If you're living in a hot metro area, your CoL will rise much faster then 2% a year. Your wages will not.

However, there are a lot more people living in Nowhereville, Middle America, where rents are not going through the roof. There aren't any jobs there, but that's not reflected in the CoL index.
People know their options.

Let's be real... outside of trade professions like programming/carpentry/plumbing/etc. an associates degree is barely a step up from a GED (and sometimes worse: "Why didn't you just take the extra two years and get your bachelors???"). It also doesn't really matter how cheap it is, the main cost for the community college demographic is the opportunity cost. Most don't have support structures to give them the basics while they are at school, so they have to support themselves PLUS earn an extra 2.5k in disposable income, and then keep up with their studies on top of all of that. And since an associates gives you extremely limited social mobility in comparison to a bachelors most just forgo it, often replacing school with an extra job.

In terms of social mobility a college degree is the new high school degree, anything less is exactly that and will not give you sufficient social mobility especially when you're on the lower end of the spectrum to begin with. We need to accept this and begin treating college like we did high school, making it free and standardized for everyone. The only other option I can see is trying to radically change social norms that have developed over the past 30-40 years and I just don't think that's feasible outside of select industries like ours.

"if we could read each others thoughts there would be no misunderstanding and conflict"

For that to be true you have to assume that everyone has enough empathy to come to agreement. It isn't really much different from the way things are now (without being able to read each other's thoughts).
The claim isn't "the media is talking too much", it's "the media is hypocritical". And that claim is a response to the thread.

I always figured if I had (access to) a self driving car I'd live further out of the city because I could be on a laptop or even sleep for part of the commute. Thus have more affordable housing.

And while those are technically possible on public transportation (bus) . I don't want to sleep on a bus. Especially if I am by myself with a laptop bag. And the times it takes to wait for bus and walk to/from makes it unappealing. But a private pod is completely different for my scenario
At least around here if you ask people why they, as the only person in the vehicle, drive something so big many will answer, "so, I win". The idea being that in an accident the larger vehicle will provide more protection.

Soon we will all be driving semi-tractors just so we can "win" against the largest vehicles on the road.
I personally don't like the Github wiki because you cannot transactionally commit to the repo and the wiki. I like adding documentation and code in one PR so it can be reverted together if need be.

They hired them just to monitor the situation. The people there could not have been a more docile bunch if you drugged them, which made it all the more painful to watch.
Well I'm 20 minutes from Downtown and 2 from light rail. Don't own a house, though it'd be cheaper to do so versus renting.

You've got a good point about childbirth. I was thinking a bit too much of people who have 3 kids by 25, which seems to put lots of stress on them and their kids.
Cloudbleed was different in a lot of ways, not least of which because it could have been passively exploited by an unknowable number of attackers even after the bug was fixed. Here, this is an active attack that leaves a trail. The question is more like "do you trust the author?"
That's not a bug. It's some kind of feature by Symantec that can be disabled in the settings.
I think people delude themselves into thinking they're purchasing an SUV to transport a lot of stuff or to travel with kids, when in reality drivers nonetheless drive alone.

Anecdotally, as I've said, SUVs have simply replaced Sedans as the "default" car on the road. And as you may know, the "default" car in America has a single driver.

> In any case, one we get non-luxury electric SUVs the point will largely be moot.

I disagree on the basis of the positive reinforcement cycle causing people to buy larger cars in the first place. From speaking to other drivers and listening to them as they think out their thought process when deciding what new car to buy, the #1 reason people want to drive an SUV is safety (which may include the point you made about performance in snow).

Not that I have anything against safety itself, but you must see the arms race that can occur from seeking safety in a larger vehicle. When other people are driving larger vehicles around you, you may feel endangered and thus buy a larger car yourself. That causes other drivers to buy larger cars in turn. No one can have "the biggest car". They only keep getting bigger.

So this notion that electric SUVs are going to save us is moot, I believe. People will still clamor for larger (now-electric) SUVs for their safety, reducing their eMPG (electric-equivalent MPG).

People make mistakes. This seems like some manual configuration/technical debt issues. Don't get me wrong, mistakes for these big, highly used TLDs is pretty massive. The scale of this is could have been devastating.

Responsible disclosure to the company that runs the TLD seems like the right first step. This should probably posted on ICANN, ARIN, etc mailing lists even now, but I think the writer's original response is the right one.
1. Yes and the claim I was refuting was the MAX was less than $800 per month, at $235/wk that means the max is $940 per month, which is more than the claim I was refuting

2. If you earn additional income then yes the government benefits should be reduced, I fail to see why this is a bad thing, Unemployment is not a job, it is allow people to have some income if they find themselves with out a job through no fault of their own. if they are getting income from other sources they should not be collecting unemployment as they are not unemployed

3. See #2

4. There are some exception to this (like changes terms and conditions of employment), but unemployment is for people that find themselves jobless through no fault of their own, if you are at fault for your joblessness you should not collect unemployment as it should be assumed you understood the consequences of your actions which created your joblessness

5. Yes a person on unemployment should have to prove they are seeking employment, I fail to understand why this controversial. No the government should not pay for you to take a vacation or "recharge your batteries"

6. What are "Job Search costs", going to indeed and sending emails cost money now? by health care I assume you mean health insurance, which is really different than health care. And is really well outside the topic of this conversation, unemployment is not designed to cover health insurance costs nor should it.

I think a lot of people would cite the BBC in answer to your point. But that sort of media outlet only works as long as the government isn't actively hostile to the interests of the majority of its citizens. Both the US and UK are arguably heading in that direction, or already there, depending on whom you ask.
How is this inefficient? I definitely think that markets have the potential to be very inefficient, but do we know that the alternatives to this are any more efficient? Economies of scale often do make it more efficient for all of a particular kind of product to be produced in one location and then shipped to wherever they're needed. The fact that there are 52 steps to the process says nothing about the actual efficiency of it. It's just a play to ignorance to the fact that almost all products we enjoy go through a similarly complicated supply chain.

It's only inefficient in the sense that it expends more gas (thus leading to higher emissions) than is strictly necessary. However, I also assume that it is cheaper for food to be distributed and processed in this manner; this is usually what people mean by "efficient".
If you could add links for the papers you mentioned that'd be nice. Assuming they are available to the public.
About 90% of the time, it is not a big deal. I do try to make sure we are on the same page about some things. Most of the time, it is only an issue if some guy imagines it is a budding romance because he almost never talks to anyone, so talking to me occasionally is a big deal to him and he is imagining this is heading to bed when it isn't remotely on track for that in my mind.

I have had genuine friendships and other close relationships with introverts. I know how that plays out and that can work. Problems arise when people get weird ideas like because they talk to me once in a while, they have some special claim on me and I am not supposed to have other friends.

Keep in mind that it takes two to tango, even platonically, and if you like dancing with this person but they like dancing a lot more than you do, it is not reasonable to expect them to sit on the sidelines waiting for you. Let them dance with other people in peace at times when you don't want to dance anyway. It isn't taking anything away from you if they are consistent about being available for you when you need a friend.

Homeless for at least a night, over the past year. If you've been thrown out of your apartment, and have to crash on a friends' couch, you qualify.

Most homeless people don't end up on the streets, and don't stay homeless for very long. It's still an incredibly wretched experience, and not a sustainable one. Once you've burnt through all your friends that will lend you their couch, you will be sleeping on the street.

That bum asking you for change in SoMo? They too were sleeping on a friends' couch, before they ended up panhandling.
Because you are a law avoiding citizen... I think that copyrights are to long, something on the order of 25 years is closer to what they should be.

Actually, Zuckerberg said:

“People own and have control over all info they put into Facebook and “Download Your Information” enables people to take stuff with them,”

“At a high level we’ve built two different things, Facebook Connect — which is our real effort to bring our sites to other sites, and “Download Your Information” where you can download your information and upload it to another site. Stuff that you put into the site, you should be able to take out.”

As usual, it looks like this was just PR.
What we really need is WWII-style, society-wide action on this count--remember the days of Meatless Mondays, saving your cans to make bullets, mailing your binoculars to the Navy. Even if it's confined to the parts of society that actually believe global warming is a serious threat, making pro-climate living a social norm could have a tremendous effect.
In the very long term, how can you dispute the benefit of human expansion in Antarctica? Humans have thrived in times when there was little glaciation and suffered in times of increased glaciation. The only benefit of glaciers is that we're accustomed to the climate they promote. I have no doubt that mankind could adjust to and thrive in a world without glaciers. It's ridiculous how afraid humans are to engineer their planet compared to a century ago.

That's a good summary of the UK's response to the UN, but we are allowed to disagree. We are allowed to have moral values that are not enforced at the end of a gun. I'm sad that you don't.

And when it comes to the global organization of the Internet, politics is important. Politics is why the fad for .ly domains in link shorteners allowed links to be censored by Gaddafi's government.

And politics is presumably why the UK controls this ugly stepchild of a TLD* and doesn't care about it enough to put competent people in charge of it.

*Unfortunately, I use it too. .com and .org are in an end-game where everything belongs to the domain squatters.
Coma patients are just a subset of people without awareness.

Awareness is not binary. My friend going into diabetic coma exhibits a degree of awareness until you realize her answers to my questions have stopped and you have to call the ambulance.

I do agree that the brain optimizes routine things, thus my question is it not possible to function without awareness (ie sleepwalking through life).

Oh. You want to swab someone's throat to see if they should be detained to protect themselves or others.

Please let's you and I spend some time together in the emergency department. Last week we had a patient there who'd been brought in against his will by the police, and who claimed that the chip implanted in their brain was telling him to remove his eyes and everyone else's eyes with the spoon he carried in his back pocket.

He'd already removed his left eye, with the spoon he carried in his back pocket.

Please tell us your plan. I'm sorry that I can't find a throat swab to assist us.

Or perhaps we could have lunch down at the dementia care facility, where the neurologists would love you to tell them they're not legitimate medical doctors because they don't have a throat swab for dementia yet, and because they "lock up" dementia sufferers with a few signatures at the request of dementia-sufferer families so they, the dementia patients, don't walk onto the freeway. They actually lock people up protectively before "the crime" of actually walking onto the freeway.

Imagine that.

Aren't a few signatures (even sans diagnosis) all that's needed to place children in what in effect is protective custody?

This is somewhat of a non sequitur, if you mean to imply that this can be aggregated up into a market for such a publication. People often interject with an "I would pay for xyz" in discussions like this. But in practice, people pay for the kinds of magazines you see on bookshelves. Journalists would love to (in principle) make higher quality stuff, but they get drawn into the click-baity, partisan flamewars because that's what actually sells papers (or eyeballs or whatever).
