Depends on the behavior and even the consequences are not as "clear" as you make it sound because reactions to behavior can be rather subjective. Context actually matters even tho it's too often ignored these days in favor of generating drama.

It's a factor way too often ignored with this issue: If "hurting people's feelings" will become a crime, then we will see no end of regulating "undesired behaviors" because people get their feelings hurt in the most subjective and unintended ways [0].

So much about "obvious examples of racism".

Deciding to bet on the web is fine, but shouldn't the immediate next thought be like 'wait, why did the web win?' I think that's a far more interesting topic. It would be hard to argue that it didn't win, and it certainly wouldn't have been easy to see it coming. Someone designed a system for static hyperlinked document presentation... then years later others start shoehorning in broken bits of application-like functionality... years more along, the shoehorning continued with vigorous earnest, subverting every attempt by the W3C to prevent the web from turning into an application platform and remain a static document presentation system.

With so many hurdles to cross, so many things holding it back, why on earth did it win? Clearly not just because it was cross-platform, lots of things did that. Certainly not because it followed any even REMOTE sense of reasonable development. Remember when people used to talk about the utility of standard user interface widgets? I imagine all those people are dead now.

Personally I think it was the ability to search. That trumped absolutely every single other consideration across the board. What users wanted was to vaguely indicate what they wanted and be using that application moments later. There's no reason that HAS to be only how the web works, but it mostly is now. If something comes around that enables that elsewise... maybe consider putting a chip down on that as well.
Looks interesting conceptually but it would be good to refute the "sufficiently clever compiler" in anticipation. My beef with this sort of thing or Furthark or OpenACC is that they don't seem to understand complex data layouts required for real problems.
"stop trusting" would perhaps be clearer, sure. We don't necessarily need a single word for that.
If they'd used a minifier, most or all of this embarrassment could have been avoided.
> But "distrust" doesn't convey the full meaning. They're not talking about merely not trusting Symantec certificates; they're talking about removing existing trust in the certificates.

“distrust” alone only communicates not trusting, true. But the word isn't alone, it is in the phrase “plan to distrust”, which communicates that the not-trusting is a change from the status quo that will occur in the future.
That's one of the really really great things about electric cars: they are always ready to go, without having to control the gearbox.

Now, there's a tiny percentage of the population that enjoys paddle shifters, and even I do sometimes, but if we had usage tracking on them I would bet that fewer than 10% of drivers use paddle shifters for more than 5 times in the lifetime of the car, and that cars with paddle shifters are in automatic transmission mode 99.9% of miles driven.

So though some people will miss the gearbox, far far far more will rejoice in having a car that is always at maximum performance without messing with things.

Realistically you can just wait like 3-5 months until the price goes down a bit. Got this 128gb iPhone 7 (free unlock from att) for $570 + $10 otterbox deal from amazon + $3 screen protector + sprint 1 year "free" service for $4/mo. So that's 631$ for an iPhone and a year of service..

These phones really aren't that expensive if you look for a deal.

I normally group my windows by subject instead of having a bunch of completely unrelated tabs in a single window. You can also use Show All Tabs (⌘⇧\) to see all of the tabs in a window in a manner that shows you what each tab is (and also groups some tabs together, I think based on site, but I don't use it often enough to figure out the exact rules of when it groups tabs).
FireWatch dev uses DMCA against PewDiePie after streamed racial slur
Once upon a time, a guy bought tickets for a basketball game on Stubhub. Some months after he bought the ticket, superstar Kobe Bryant announced that it was going to be his last game. Ticket prices shot up and the buyer was thrilled that he still had a ticket. However, the seller was equally unenthused by the idea of having sold his ticket at so much under its now-increased value. So he cancelled the sale. There was a big fuss, and Stubhub gave the one buyer a ticket to the game.

If you give someone a put option for some quantity on something, they then get the power to sell that amount of that something to you at a specific price. Usually, you want to get money in exchange for giving someone that power. In the markets, this is called selling someone a put option.

This chap's point is that you could agree to buy a ticket for $150 to see Kobe Bryant on Stubhub. This doesn't mean you get a ticket. This just means you gave someone on Stubhub the option to sell you a ticket at $150 because if the price rises to $1500, he's going to choose not to sell you that ticket by doing what the seller did in the previous case. Since you get no money for giving the seller the power, you're not selling the option, you're giving it away for free.

That's probably the context to his comment. I neither agree nor disagree with it.
> It seems like its size may have been supplemented by serving as an alternative to conscription, however.

There's no conscription anymore though, and given the short serving time of 9 months at the end of "civil-service" (the alternative to conscription), that shouldn't play a role anymore.
Very unlikely. Credit card companies charge fees, which is why such apps (venmo, cash-me, etc) all just push that fee onto you. Usually 3%.

You missed what is probably the most important thing about human evolution and that is due to the rapid population rise after the invention of argriculture more human evolution has happened in the last 10,000 years than the previous million.

The other is that human population is filled with new genes that are under positive selection which have only partially spread through the population. Humans are probably the worst species to study genetically as all the normal assumptions you need to make don't hold.

One minor nitpick, your evidence of the oldest oral tradition is not very strong as there are only four major points on the compass. The likelihood of chance and cherry-picking is high.
DNA: The Code of Life (SHA2017)
This is described as "green" but as a portable the panel will never produce as much energy as it took to manufacture it. Taking this deficit into account plus the energy and other environmental harm embodied in the battery, which will also likely be sparsely used, and its doubtful you beat diesel by much.

To truly be green you would either do without or not go.
That's progress, but that's not exactly a home screen widget. Eg, I can see "20C" and an icon showing it's rainy right on my phone's home screen. I don't think you can do that with the web yet, hopefully people are working on it.

>Considering that literally anyone who roots any server at all - even servers that didn't use LetsEncrypt before - can generate new valid LetsEncrypt certificates

As opposed to any other CAs? There are plenty of other CAs that will happily grant a certificate if you prove control of a server that the domain resolves to.

>nothing generated has a password on it, I don't know if I would consider them really trustworthy.

If you have root on the server, can't you just dump the certificate out of memory, even if there's a password on it? short of using a HSM, you need the certificate decrypted so the server can use it.
> The most recent US interference in a foreign election (quoted in your source) was in 2000

You are been naive. The coup in Brazil (2016) was deliberately discussed, supported and planned in events of american "NGOs" in Brazil. Also, a lot of Syrian rebel's like groups were created or supported by american money. Direct interference is one thing, but if you have a machine that mess with the elections of every country in the world it is still a state interference in another one's affair.

I think this really clarifies the direction that GM (and I believe other auto manufacturers) see as the way forward: moving from an individual-ownership model to an on-demand rent model.
Bootstrapping the Web with Scala Native (Part 1)
It amazes me that people can compare "fat people hate" and a racist group in the same sentence.

Why would be OK to have "climate-denier-hate" or anti-religious groups and not "fat people hate?" Why are people who chose a certain religion or chose to think one way about the climate any different from those who choose to eat more calories than they need?
You understand genetic similarity does not mean you look similar or come from the same tribe necessarily? Especially since the age of heavier than air flying machines.
True. However, while it is possible to make any kind of car with 100% renewable embodied energy, it is quite impossible to operate an ICE car on renewable.
Seems so. The article says:

If you are a site operator with a certificate issued by a Symantec CA prior to June 1, 2016, then prior to the release of Chrome 66, you will need to replace the existing certificate with a new certificate from any Certificate Authority trusted by Chrome.
Good point. Races (5k, marathon, etc) do that also to encourage people to sign up early. I think it's dumb, but at least the festival tier thing is honest.

It's the dishonesty that kills me. The reason I think I was bugged enough to look into it is that I fell for the trick. I knew it's going to be a sold out game, so I assumed it was real traffic/user actions and almost let that influence my purchasing decisions.
It's really hard for me to see how you can treat "genetically similar tribes" and races as unrelated concepts.

How Airliners Work – Basic Navigation (2013)
Looks like there is a path hardcoded in the build files causing problems. After some reflection on the msvc/README, renaming the project directory to libzmq (was: zeromq-4.2.2 from the release or libzmq-master from github zip download), and launching cmd.exe using the Developer Command Prompt for VS2015 link, libzmq/builds/msvc/build/build.bat successfully builds all configurations.
I like how people come up with new uses cases for headless Chrome.

But for his use case ('presentation') there are tons of presentation libs/franeworks in HTML/JS/CSS which support code embeddings with syntax highlighting.

Same quality but much easier workflow since code stays editable.
This got mentioned under another comment but it is worth stating at the top level: always use fuses or breakers in any kind of system, that battery is a fire/bomb waiting to happen if there is a dead short. Charge controllers can do this when they fail (I had a 30A MPPT CC do this, and not a cheap one). I wouldn't sleep next to this thing without it (I didn't look in incredible detail at their site but a cursory search didn't find anything about current protection).

DC systems and AC systems also require differently rated components. You cannot just go buy a 30A 120V AC breaker from home depot for the DC side of your system. It takes a lot more to disconnect DC than it does in AC (because AC cycles to 0V 60x/s it doesn't take much of a gap/insulator to break a connection, DC is not the same. Trying to use a light-switch for a DC light can result in problems [1].

I've had good luck with midnite products (charge controllers and breakers, etc) [2]. Their breakers are 100% rated in that if you expect your max current output to be 30A DC (12v probably), you can use a 30A breaker and not have to oversize it, they are rated to take the guess work out of how to size your breakers which is nice.

Edit: I tried to find some info on the CC they use (in case it had internal protection which I wouldn't trust even if they said it did) and no luck. Given its pedigree and price (most charge controller add on displays cost more than this thing) you definitely don't want to take any chances. Price doesn't always mean quality but there is probably a good reason they are usually more expensive than this.

What's interesting to me is that reading through this thread, particularly Sartre's description of anti-Semite thinking, is that the exact same thoughts are voiced in the rightist spheres I inhabit, but referring to the left. Particularly regarding discourse and respect (or lack thereof) for it.

In fact, it gets interesting when I think about speakers being no-platformed of late. When, IDK, Richard Spencer or someone gets protested away from some university, is this an example of:

- blatant disrespect for words, as shown through Spencer's poisoning the well as Sartre describes, or

- blatant disrespect for words, as shown through him not being allowed to speak?

It is a strange world indeed where both sides, referring to the same incident, take completely different positions, both in the name of free speech.

So here are two cases I've pulled up on Wheaton College:

https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2015/12/christi...

http://time.com/3722790/wheaton-college-lgbt-apple/

Both definitely support your point that for holding different views than the majority, people were attacked and/or suppressed. Here's the thing though: Wheaton is an evangelical college. Is it expected that an evangelical Christian college is going to be open to or supportive of a professor saying that Muslims and Christians worship the same God? Or that marriage is a union between more than just a man and a woman? I think that's kind of like going into r/The_Donald and then posting pro Hillary comments. It's not the kind of venue that is established for dissenting views. They're built for proselytization. Furthermore, association of evangelical universities and academia as a whole seems like a mismatch considering how specific their focus is.

On the other hand, one can argue that secular universities such as Berkeley and MIT have a much different expectation. It's easier to argue that as they are secular universities (and in the case of Berkeley public and home of the FSM movement), they are meant to represent a much wider set of views.

But when you see dramatic shifts in the political leanings of professors, then followed by conservatives being attacked on campuses that are dominated by liberal thought you have to wonder. I'm not sure what qualifies as a preponderance of evidence in this case according to your words.

That being said, I would also argue that there is plenty of persecution of liberals in deeply conservative areas as well. It's not really about conservative vs liberal, so much as it's about how majorities operate and deal with minorities.
I think their point was that it seems unfair to count up all the of the embodied energy of an electric car's batteries, but to only count the potential energy of the ICE car's fuel.
Can someone with experience answer this please?
The piece talks about the risk that come with working for someone else, namely losing one's job. There are so many other risks though. What if the job turns out to be a nightmare? There's so many ways that could happen when working for someone else.

It's highly dependent on what type of person you are, as well as other things, of course. One good sign that you're better off not being someone else's employee, is when you're finding the quality of the vast majority of other work environments or companies to be not up to your standards.

If you see a lot of problems that are hard to un-see, and you think you know better, odds are that it's probably less risky for you to start a business (or do consulting work).

> Considering that literally anyone who roots any server at all, or can spoof one - even servers that have never used LetsEncrypt before - can generate new valid LetsEncrypt certificates, and nothing generated has a password on it, I don't know if I would consider them trustworthy.

This is true for the vast majority of all CAs.

> If you want to passively monitor encrypted traffic on a massive scale and not get caught (other than via their log - and who is reading that to see if every server they have has been issued a cert unnecessarily, anyway?), LetsEncrypt is awesome.

Wouldn't you rather pick a CA that doesn't log all certificates publicly? (At least while that's still possible - i.e. till early next year.) If you're doing this on a massive scale with a CA that logs publicly, there is absolutely no way you're not getting caught.

Certificate Transparency Monitoring is fairly easy to set up, by the way. Even Facebook runs a public monitor you can use.
Yeah it's really rough. It'd be nice to take a cue from Paris and France and make Artist Enclaves or Warehouses where rent was cheap or nonexistent and patrons supported people of various professions (coders, artists, musicians, whatever).
Except anti Semitism isn't just "kill all Jews". If you're the ADL, then it might be "Israel sucks, screw those guys". They'll label it anti Semitism, lump it in with "garbage philosophy" and shut down discussion. Exactly what people are worried about.

So sure, feel free to censor "kill all Jews" but know it is 100% a slippery slope, in no small part because once you are allowed to delete opponents that meet that criteria, you'll try to expand the criteria.
I have gone to Stubhub a few times now to try to replicate this, and searched for tickets for popular NFL and MLB teams, and I can't get this "Sold" thing to work the way this posts shows it - actually it doesn't happen at all for me.

I do think the "last 1%" may be a very hard problem to solve, but the majority of crashes are simply people not seeing things or making bad decisions. "Recognition Error" and "Decision Error" are the two most frequent categories of accidents which basically boil down to not seeing obstacles while performing a maneuver (changing lanes and not seeing a vehicle in that lane, turning and failing to see an oncoming vehicle) and driving too fast respectively. ( see https://crashstats.nhtsa.dot.gov/Api/Public/ViewPublication/...)

I don't see why the "last 1%" problem needs to be solved when we have hundreds of thousands of accidents every year caused by people not paying attention, not reacting in a timely fashion, and driving unsafely; all problems that computers are likely to excel at.
