How difficult would it be to get a law passed that effectively deals with this? E.g., by requiring that each passenger should have at least 1 inch of space between their knees and the next seat, or else their money back plus compensation.

How to approach this? A petition? Letters to MOCs/MPs?

PS: budget airlines have these "bag testers" (e.g. [1]), where you have to measure your bag before you can take it on board. Wouldn't it be great if passengers had a "seat tester", which could be a 1 inch wide measurement stick that should fit between your knees and the seat in front?

I'd have a small preference for Eclipse, mainly because some specs are already there (like EclipseLink).

Apache already has their own implementation of much of Java EE (via the Geronimo project, TomEE and Tomcat, among others).

In my opinion it would be slightly confusing to have say 2 JSF implementations at Apache (Myfaces and Mojarra). Not really terrible, but my gut feeling says Eclipse would be a better home.

It could be because both of those statements are lies. You might need to rethink which outlet you go to for news.

Although one of those outlets happens to be the POTUS, which is unfortunate.

Not OP, but I think publishing platforms should be able to decide policies who to carry, infrastructure companies on the other hand should at most differentiate by usage patterns, never by ideology.

I count ISPs clearly in the infrastructure category, same with cloudflare, domain providers and AWS.

Not sure which offices you are referring to - India or US. In India at least, they are at par with peers engaged in the same Services model.

This I agree. But, that's just like any other big corporate company unless you know how to navigate your way out in the maze.

> no much work for you to do

Again subjective. I have come across people who complain of too much work.

The better alternative will be to join a product company if the OP has an option, rather than a services company, as other comments suggest. Any Services company operates predominantly on a head count / person hours model as against a product company or a product based start up which have completely different dynamics.
I find it really strange that people are down voting this comment.

Not only do these Big IT companies hire in mass, they also spend insane amounts of money and time training students who come out of college without exposure to real work.

Yeah they pay peanuts and yes you would be just a face in the crowd. But they likely give you the biggest break of your life.

> How's that any different than something that talks SQL? It's the most universal data language there is.

To use SQL you need to know the schema you're working against. Every single tool has to agree on a specific schema - and there are tons of existing tools that push infrastructure/system metrics into timeseries databases. For them it's simple, Influx uses some API, OpenTSDB uses another, Prometheus uses yet another - but they're all pretty simple to use. If you would point them to a Postgres database on the other hand, they wouldn't have a clue what fields to insert.
How social justice is weaponizing corporations to suppress dissent
There is one thing that people are binary about: Their feelings for sociopaths. You can immediately tell who has had to spend time around an honest-to-goodness sociopath and who hasn't. I always say that sociopaths are insects in human skin. Once you've had a brush with one of these "people", it forever alters your perception of the world and the people that inhabit it.

i would propose except paying for seat apparently paying for weight, your already have to pay for heavier baggage anyway, why not pay more for weight, you can at least influence that unlike height
Not in the US it wasn't.

But there’s one huge difference: These newer offshoots have been far more successful than we could ever have dreamed. When you see crowds of hundreds marching through the streets with their faces uncovered, when white supremacist leader Richard Spencer holds a press conference a few days after a woman was killed by one of his fellow travelers and hosts reporters in his home, it becomes clear just how much more terrifying this new generation of extremists is. They’re savvier than we were. Better connected.

Nice. I wonder though, will the randomly placed watermarks distract the legit viewer, and affect their judgment of the images?

Example: When I go through Adobe stock photos, although I find the watermark initially annoying, I would quickly learn to "unsee" it in the next photos because I know how it looks like and where it is on the photo.

With varied watermarks, I'm not sure if the same mental technique can be applied. Shrugs, I may just be overthinking it.

I'm constantly harping on everybody to pay attention to their file naming.

I'm a graphic designer, so for me everything is Client/YYMM-Project/_FINAL/YYMM-COLLATERAL-NAME

Within each project there is a _PROCESS folder with a _ELEMENTS subfolder for pieces the client has given me to work with.

For invoices I do YYMMDD-ClientName-Project-Sum.pdf. When the invoice is paid, I rename the file to add -PAID- before the client name. Its simple, but its allowed me to easily track and maintain projects and billing over the years.

If I end up working for another 83 years, I guess I'll pad the year with a 0...

Proper file management is an undervalued skill and should be taught both in school and in corporate environments. In an old tech job we had a public folder on the server that was total chaos. So many people insisted on naming their files MAY-%day%-%contents%-%personsname% -- and, as you'd expect, people spent countless hours per year trying to hunt down that one file so-and-so worked on before they left for another job.
This -

"Further, we point out the inevitable effect of making martyrs by persecution. Persecute the Nazis, drive them underground, imitate their methods in Germany - and attract to them hundreds of sympathizers with the persecuted who would otherwise be indifferent."

Most of the people & corporations screaming for suppression on all kinds of speeches across spectrum of opinions do not get this. The best way increase toxicity of any discourse is to try and suppress it, this is is evident from recent examples of Google, Cloudfare, FB, Charlotesville, University of Berkeley and many more.
While I have no hopes from corporations, I hope that people realize that dialogue & free speech are perhaps the most non-violent & non-toxic ways of resolving any issues. Suppressing opinions be of any side just widens the chasm between groups and benefits narrow political agendas.
Maybe not using exactly that method, but I am pretty sure I have tried using gcc for it. Will have a proper read of that later.

Thanks for the clarifications.

As for #1, what I do not understand is how a `Walkfile` allows me to use a content hash change to trigger a rebuild.

Your documentation says that a file list should be returned for `deps`, so how does the `Walkfile` communicate that e.g. `main.o` should be updated if `sha1sum main.c` is different than on last invocation?
My mistake; I shouldn't post while busy with other things.
I don't think it's easy to learn either. The basics are easy, and the syntax is easy, and writing some code that does what you want in the repl is easy. But then you try to make a real application and you have more questions than answers.

But, you can do OTP without making it distributed. Elixir is awesome in that you have this actor based system (genserver) where the syntax gets out of the way more than in any other language i'm familar with. So the business logic running on these genservers is really easy to understand. And there is nothing stopping you putting them behind message queues or load balancers. Most of the time, that's probably appropriate.
What language is your project? Jetbrains IDEs have static analysis based "find usage" for dynamic languages like php.
If you want to talk about app stores, that's a valid point which deserves conversation but it's not typically covered by network neutrality.

Many groups radicalize "lone wolves" precisely to do the things that they want done, but want to keep their hands clean.

You saw this particularly during the 90s, when people were radicalized to attack and kill abortion doctors. It was rarely called terrorism, but the tactics were the same.

The folks who sent hoax anthrax packages to Planned Parenthood offices where mostly lone actors, picking up on their group's radicalizing messages.

One could also say Eric Rudolph and Timothy McVeigh were "lone wolves" in that they believed the radicalizing talk, but acted essentially alone.

except height is not really related to airline expenses, since there will be many much shorter people paying same with lot of spare space

they should really have cabin with different layouts and assign seats according height, taller person would get more space, shorter less, but both would have same level of comfort and there would be same capacity of seats, current layout with all seats and gaps between them same is very archaic.

they should really charge people per kg, there can be short and heavy person while tall and skinny, and as i pointed above you can have same level of comfort for passengers without losing capacity assigning seats depending on size, your can do nothing about weight, this will cost airline always more so heavier people should pay more because it's directly related to fuel expenses. we already do it with baggage so why not with bodies?

A bit of a nitpick, but

>I would never assume positive intent and allow my daughter to be alone with a registered sex offender

I don't know, prehaps that's true in the case where one doesn't know what the sex offender has done (i.e what crime got them onto that list), but it's not sufficient in general.

Although most people on the list are there for good reasons, there are not-good reasons too, such as urinating in a public park at night, having a lewd picture of your 17 year old girlfriend/boyfriend on your phone, and in some countries possessing/writing certain pornographic comics or stories.

So I think it is too dismissive, similar to how it is also dimissive to say the same thing about an ex-convict.
Which means that to be "for themselves" they feel the need to be "against others" as they view things as zero sum. I guess similar applies to other zero sum situations (or situations that people view as zero sum). The car salesman isn't trying to screw you, he's just trying to make more money for himself, by screwing you.
> there is a time and place to analyze ideas destructive to open society

I hope you realize this is the type of speech we should expect from a totalitarian regime.
