Assange (let's get rid of pseudo-plurality of Wikileaks) has clearly observable political agenda, and it hasn't changed much. As long as it harms the United States and its allies, it will be disseminated. If it's something that implicates the "anti-imperialists" like Le Pen, Trump, Putin and their petty dictator buddies (e.g. Panama Files) it will be booed and downplayed by him.
> Any reputable running clinic will teach you to make contact with the ground at the middle of your foot with a slightly bent knee.

Honestly, I'm shocked anyone lands heel first anyway. I was never a runner.. but even as a youth, I didn't do this. It was obvious what felt good, and what felt good was engaging the knee and ankle, using them as springs, etc etc.

I don't understand why people need to be taught how to run. Very strange to me.

My hometown, Albany, NY. Many small/midsize cities are similar.

Inner city rents are similar to the suburban developments and until recently higher than mortgage payments.

The top 5 landlords control 30-50% of the market and own whole blocks at various times.
Salesforce has been running essentially a BaaS for nearly two decades and they show no sign of slowing down.

IMHO their platform is garbage compared to something like Firebase, but no businesses seem to be worried about portability. In fact most are doubling down on building teams to build and support Salesforce.
At a guess, this is to filter out SSH keys, which have an identical private key format, and we well know already how many of those get committed to GitHub. I think this is to highlight where the server's HTTPS key is visible.
I'm certain they get a large discount, but that's not going to be related to the shipping cost. The best deal for them is likely to be to negotiate the price "Ex Works", which means the customer handles transportation and clearance from the factory gate. That way they can negotiate their own prices for the shipping, and handle the customs clearance in the way that works best for them. I doubt they're literally chartering a 747. I can't see how that would be better than just shipping them as normal air freight.

For me, this is why it's such a big deal: I don't think it has to be porn to be used against you. It just needs to be some minor character flaw that breaks with your public image.

And I guess more troubling still, this kind of stuff could be used to blackmail normal people in the same way revenge porn is. What about threatening to reveal your porn habits to friends & family?

Again, doesn't need to be porn. What about your browsing history for medicine, self-help etc? All that stuff could be used to blackmail someone, especially if they're psychologically vulnerable.
In general the profits are wafer thin, but Ethereum price skyrocketed a few months ago. Far quicker than people could build mining machines.

I'm trying to figure out whether this can live peacefully with the Red Queen Hypothesis:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Queen_hypothesis

Basically, from Van Valen's data, species have a constant chance of going extinct, regardless of how long they've been around. His hypothesis is that even though speciation appears to be a discrete event, these species are constantly jockeying with each other for survival in a dynamic environment -- they have to run faster and faster to stay in the same place, and are always subject to falling out of the race, as it were.

The devil's in the details, of course, but it's intriguing to jam these two ideas together.
"...I look forward to everyone's information being made public in the future..."

One of the problems is that everyone's information will not become public, and that asymmetry MIGHT lead to social power imbalances. A good "for instance" is that using some of the techniques outlined in the article, a person who might have had the discipline to never start using any social media sites would be part of that 5% of people that you could not identify.

Every technique will have holes like that, and it will give some people a level of privacy that others don't have. And that's where even mundane things you would normally not even think about, begin to get affected by the social power imbalances. For instance, a company receives 2 resumes, one from me, one from someone who is "digitally invisible". (For lack of a better term.) The background check they run on me would be a whole lot more detailed than the check they run on the "digitally invisible" person. I guess the answer to that is for me to just not be a douche on the internet.

At any rate, I don't know if I'm being clear, but I hope you can see where techniques like this could expose one person, but not another. It's not really "fair" in the way you described unless everyone is exposed.

The Chaos Computer Club did some extensive educational work a couple years back to make sure we keep our paper ballots here in Germany. And this work keeps going to this day. I'm very greateful, seeing all the issues we are avoiding because of this, but the fight against misinformed or malicious politicians is still going on.

A very important factor in their work was making sure people called them "voting computers" instead of "voting machines". Most people have a sense by now that computers are hackable and insecure, if only through movies where hackers can hack every system. Calling them machines gives people the sense they are a unhackable mechanical appliances.

You should check out how many services have their entire git repo of their service openly accessible (this allows getting the data out of the git objects, as well as the history).

Quite often you can go to domain.tld/.git/ and find the files if you know their names. Even major sites - The Hill only fixed it in the past few days.
And that's missing all the coordinate stuff. Let's add

* FALSE: You don't need to know the difference between geographic and projected coordinate systems

* FALSE: There is only one geographical coordinate system and it's called WGS84

* FALSE: For any pair of coordinate systems there is one and only one way to transform data between them

The subway systems in major cities around the world were all privately owned before cities bought them up - mainly because different lines were owned by different companies. Those would have been massive undertakings and super expensive. What Elon is proposing are simply similar systems except for different distances. He's serious and it's brilliant - and his humour embedded in the The Boring Company's name is grand. Also to add, people confuse the Hyperloop technology because of the company called Hyperloop One (not sure how they're able to use that name), Hyperloop One which is using and proposing maglev technology - and I don't believe Elon will use it, it really kills efficiencies at scale - cost wise and otherwise.

When I started running I also used a heart rate monitor and training plans guided by an app.
By the time I got a feeling how fast I can run I ditched the heart rate strap.
Now I still use a running watch with gps, but do not let it set my pace.
On the other hand, I'm not ino competitive running, I'm doing it just for fun.
No one really claims that the voting machines were secure because it was technically advanced. The voting system is secure because it is irregular and physically distributed and not connected.

In other words. Hacking the election is up there with the us planned 9/11 it would require social engineering of unheard proportions.

> Next, I got to this horrifying article about a University of Georgia study concluding that the government statistics on airbags are wildly wrong and airbags are actually killing us all

The hyperbole isn't really necessary. Before "depowered" airbags were allowed by the NHTSA, the standard described in FMVSS (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard) 208 stated that airbags must be able to protect an unbelted 50th percentile sized male in a frontal crash. This required that the airbag deploy at lower collision speeds and with more force than would be necessary with a belted occupant of smaller stature.

This lead to injuries and deaths due to airbag deployments in low speed collisions as mentioned in the study. My guess is that the study period was at a time when depowered airbags weren't as common as they are today.

Their free speech isn't being curtailed. Free speech doesn't mean the right to say whatever you want without repercussions or consequences. People are down voting you here, I guess that means your free speech is being attacked as well?
It has nothing to do with free speech, it's freedom of the press. Freedom of the press has immense value. Publishing HH's sex tape and all the tabloid garbage, fake news, etc isn't one of them. It's a problem of unlimited freedom. We do curtail freedom of speech with slander laws, just as we curtail freedom of the press with libel laws.

Amazingly, much of the free press in the US have made themselves a liability to society by obfuscating what is truth and what is fiction without giving a second thought as to how detrimental it is to the country. Think Alex Jones and Fox News types. Think weasel words like "people think," "It's been said that," etc. Those are cues that the topic is as best unsubstantiated, at worst an outright falsehood to inspire fear in people for ad revenue. There are similar types on the opposite of the political spectrum. These companies exist to profit off of fear, obfuscation and anger.

The best way to protect yourself? Don't publish shitty tabloid articles. Don't publish shit sex tapes of fucking HH, as if anyone wants to see that. If you are in the business of pushing sleaze and ruining people's lives for profit, piss off.

Journalism's purpose in our society is to tell the population what the powerful people / government don't want them to know. The reason this is useful is because a democratically elected population needs to know what's going on in order to make correct choices come election time. They need to know if their government is corrupt. People don't need to know that Theil is gay or what HH looks like having sex. That's not journalism, that's not useful, that's gossip.

As for this R Kelly business? Everyone knows he's a weirdo. Take it to the authorities if you want to make a difference. If the authorities ignore it and he's actually doing something illegal? Then publish it to force their hand.

> This reminds me that it wasn't until recently that I realised that in English, the word "next" when applied to recurring days of the week in English does NOT mean the nearest chronological occurrence of that day. It means the one AFTER it.

Most commonly, IME, “next Wednesday” in the US it means the one in the next calendar week, which can be either the nearest future occurence or the one after that depending on the current day of the week, “this Wednesday” means the one in the current calendar week (future or past), and “this coming Wednesday” means the next chronological occurrence regardless of calendar weeks.
Wadler's paper is an excellent piece of exposition that's us at the level of an upper-year undergraduate textbook. There's nothing condescending about referring a professional to a relevant paper in their discipline, but it is troubling when a professional won't even read over a paper.
Related to this, this an interesting paper that clarifies how the Great Firewall discovers Tor nodes by doing active probing: https://nymity.ch/active-probing/imc2015.pdf. No deep packet inspection is necessary when you pretend to be a Tor user and can identify the typical response for a Tor node.

Again, you are unfortunately quite wrong. You do not understand the IO Monad.
No IO is ever performed in any code written inside the IO monad (unless using unsafePerformIO).

Please take some time to fully understand Haskell before criticising it so openly on a public forum. Perhaps then it might not all seem rather pointless.

5 Things Smart PhDs Leave Off Their Resume
Where did I say I don't believe in free speech? I absolutely believe in free speech.

But if we project your idea further along - that the Fifth Estate should not have its rights impeded, at all, ever, by anyone - then, we get censorship of the people, who - unless they are anointed members of the Fifth Estate, will not have the same assumed powers, ever.

So .. should only a certain 'class' of 'authority' in society have the ability to say what it wants?

The answer is that there are no absolutes in this discussion.

In the example we are following, Gawker uses its rights of free speech to hurt another human being, whose own rights (to privacy) were being impeded.

What do you think should have happened, which should have more precedence over the other - the right of privacy, or the right of free speech?

119th MPEG Meeting: Evidence of New Developments in Video Compression Coding
> Chat with people. Say hello. Make eye contact.
> Exercise the social skills that help you make
> unplanned interactions mutually enjoyable.

But please, do not do it with me. I love walking and long walks (just this month I've done three ~40km walks). I fully agree with a few of your points (like keeping phone and earbuds away), but why does not concept of consent apply to chat? When I am walking it is kind of meditation for me and the last thing I want it for some random guy to start small talk. If one wants to improve social skills, why not to start by learning where small talk is appropriate and expected and where one should not do it?

"Unplanned interactions" is very annoying thing, and I guess that is true not only for me but for other introverts too.
One word: Microsoft.
Ask Google[1].

1. Google complied with the China's censorship laws for a while, but since no good deed goes unpunished - they got hacked by China. Only afterwards did they decide to leave the Chinese market altogether and no longer censor their Chinese results. They do get blocked now, from time to time (or depending on keyword, I forget).
I deliberately didn't give historical examples, because I think many people dismiss them as "Oh but that was in the past - we know better now, and there's no chance of that repeating." - they feel too distant, almost abstract.

And honestly, I mostly think they'll probably turn out to be correct - for those specific cases, for their countries. What I think will happen is some new group will be targeted - political, social, or ethnic. People that shouted a bit too loud at G20 protests, or condemned US involvement in the middle east too harshly, or published cracks for DRM.

To convince them, you have to give examples of things that are at risk right now. Show them the gun pointed at their head, not the abandoned gunpowder refinery nearby, and tales of how it might start up again.

It was pretty transparent, almost comically so. My business makes adapter boards that let large mining operations reuse power supplies from old server equipment to power their mining operations. Each power supply has a different pin-out and way to turn it on and off many are proprietary and don't have publicly available data sheets. I figure out how they work and design an adapter board with the required logic to operate them safely as a general purpose 12 volt power supply.

The business operates on a model where the customer pays a minimal fee, $100, to purchase a prototype of a new design but I retained the rights to the designs and did all the design, development, and testing on my own dime and then amortize those costs over the life of the product.

So one day they come to me and say they want to start manufacturing at a factory they've made a deal with in China and ask me to give them the design files free of charge. I told them that I wasn't going to just give them the companies IP for free because a lot of work went into developing it etc... but that we could discuss what an appropriate price was if they really were dead set on doing their own manufacturing.

There was some back and forth but their position was that they didn't think there was anything special about the product and the most they were willing to pay for access to the design files and a license to manufacture it in unlimited quantities was $100 per design. I pointed out a number of things that we did the most important of which was making sure the design and materials could safely handle the high current loads the boards had to withstand, etc...

Shortly after I refused their $100 offer as insultingly low I get an email from some guy purporting to be from eastern Europe and saying he was interested in purchasing 500 units. Before he would go through with the purchase he needed to confirm some technical details of the board design because he was "concerned his environment was very hot and dirty". He then went on to ask a list of questions including things like what are the number and thickness of the copper layers in the PCB. These were the exact reasons I had discussed with the Genesis guys as to why our designs had value. At that point I was 99% sure of what was going on. So I responded that we didn't give out those specifics but that we could send him a prototype to test and he never responded.

To satisfy my own curiosity a little while later I used a personal email address to send the guy a message saying that a friend had given me his name and asking if he still did hardware design because I needed some design work done for crypto-currency related projects. A day later I got a response that removed any remaining doubt about what was going on.

I think the billionaire funding of lawyers for a lawsuit was not an attack to free-speech. Not even close. Not even suggestive of such a thing. I think it did not affect the free work of the press as the article suggests. I think it only affected media vehicles abusing its power to earn money at the expense of violating the privacy of an individual.

I believe it is just like when the police arrests a thief robbing a store, it does not affect the right to come and go of the other customers. Not even the ones who are there complaining or protesting against the store.

I've come around to Brunch, and I think it's the right choice for Phoenix.

I used Webpack for a while, but every time I needed to setup a new project I had to go back to the docs to figure out what I wanted. I tried using a generator, and it was awful... maintaining all the generated Webpack configurations was like trying to maintain a whole project within my project.

I wish Brunch had some more in-depth documentation, but I like not wasting so much time on getting that stuff setup.

I have had a similar experience, but am still trying to find the right balance.

I'm a little heavier than the average runner and was getting shin splints in regular running shoes on the "back side" of my leg. Switched to barefoot shoes (and probably didn't build up slowly enough) and had Achilles tendon issues. It fixed the shin splint problem for a while, but then they reappeared, this time on the front side of the leg.

I'm now on insole supports and regular shoes, but still not able to run as much as I'd like without the tell tale signs of shin splints showing up.

I suspect my running gait is partly to blame, but it's surprisingly difficult to change this after years of one method.
I've used the XPS 13 Developer Edition (ie, running Linux) as my daily driver since 2012. For me, it's been way more reliable than either the ThinkPad X1 or even the MacBook Pro, both of which I used as my work laptops during that same time (running Linux and OS X respectively).
