> were able to trust science

That's not it. There are no good alternatives to CO2 emitting fuels. So it became a whole anti-human thing where people are told "you are horrible, stop consuming, look at Africa they use less energy than you", etc, etc, etc.

All in order to make people feel guilty and thereby get people to reduce their usage. Once that happened there was a backlash, that backlash needed a target and the science was chosen.

But it did not start by distrusting science. You see people saying "why don't you trust science, it's the same science that gives you computers", and wondering why that doesn't convince anyone.

The reason it doesn't is because it has nothing to do with science, it has to do with making people feel guilty, about existing, about using things, about traveling, or having an A/C.

If I could give once piece of advice re CO2: Stop making people feel guilty about using energy. Just focus on finding alternatives, and playing up how awesome plentiful cheap, clean energy will be.

But completely stop the other side of things, it's not helping.
As a cyclist crossing the street in NYC, it's much the same experience. Pedestrians jaywalk willy-nilly and you frequently end up having to thread your way through an entire jaywalking horde even though you have right of way.
Interesting that all the senior Equifax who have left have "retired" and not resigned ;-)

Resigning is a known way of avoiding more serious penalties and loss of pension etc a lot of UK Police when facing serious charges suddenly resign due to stress.

> Why haven't product liability laws caught up with information services?

I fear that the simple answer is because we no longer live in a country (or political climate, if you prefer something more optimistic) where regulatory and legal structures like product liability are thought of being the role of government. The neoliberal response to this is "the market will punish Equifax and other, more responsible competitors will take their place or force them to change their ways." The very concept of human beings exerting political will to make a company do something is almost unfathomable these days.
Because to a lot of people, it's useful functionality, not bloatware.

Truly, "bloat" can only be defined as "a feature I personally do not use right now".
Selective enforcement of a shitty law is arguably worse for society then across the bar even enforcement of that law. In the latter case, there are less groups that will prevent change.
The phrase isn't clear at all, but immediately afterwards they add:

"By 2070 the world would have been 4.5 degrees F (2.5 degrees Celsius) hotter, a level most experts agree is disastrously high"

So, I assume the actual increase the estimated for a situation without the treaty, in 2017, is somewhere between 0 and 2.5 C.

Perhaps the 25% meant that the increase would have been 25% bigger than the increase we actually had?

The purpose of pronouns is to serve as a shorthand for the actual name (the "noun" in "pronoun"). Instead of saying "Chelsey Manning said this, then Chelsey Manning did that" you just say "She said this, then she did that".

If the etiquette rules for pronouns are confusing, just use the same rule you would use for any other name. For example, you would say "Pope Francis used to work as a nightclub bouncer" even though he was called Jorge Bergoglio at the time.
Very interesting, that does appear to be the case - likewise for VimFx. From what I gather, the go-to Vim plugin after this year will be Vimium (which I currently use on Chrome), although it hasn't yet been ported to FF 57.
The idea that the only possible solution is to start over is unrealistic, unhelpful and also wrong, and is so despite your attempt to caricature anyone thinking otherwise. With proper policies, technical measures can be taken to greatly improve security over the clusterfuck that is Equifax (and probably the other agencies as well.) With proper regulation, the company (and so, indirectly, its shareholders) and its officers could be held responsible, whether or not they choose to outsource the implementation. For a start, every regulation that Equifax was lobbying to be weakened could be strengthened.

In the 18th and 19th century, Britain transported many petty criminals to penal colonies in Australia. Putting aside the brutality of that policy, there was at least some concern over the number of deaths on the voyage. After other attempts failed, one simple policy brought about considerable improvement: shipowners were paid by the number of live transportees arriving. They complained mightily that it would not work, but it did.

Frankly, your post looks like a self-serving defense of business-as-usual mediocrity in IT.

Better bike infrastructure keeps bikes off the sidewalk.

As a biker you can't win. Drivers try to run you off the road, pedestrians don't want you on the sidewalk. Bike lanes are a solution, but the political will needs to be there.

That being said, in places where bikers feel they have to use the sidewalk, they should absolutely yield to pedestrians.

Here's a good article that links to a study on Scofflaw cyclists:

“Bicyclists, perhaps despite popular conception, really don’t break the rules at any greater rate than any other modes: pedestrians or drivers,” said Aaron Johnson, one of the authors. “When there’s a disregard for the rules it tends to come from efforts to negotiate infrastructure that really wasn’t built for them.”
> High speed cards like a 10 gigabit Mellanox can use 8 PCI lanes all by itself. Throw in some M.2 devices and you're out of directly connected lanes.

The original post was saying there is a shortage of PCI lanes because of situations like a 10gb network card using 8 lanes. The truth of the matter is that if someone is running out of lanes in that situation, it is because of exceptionally inefficient use of the lanes, not because 40 lanes is as limiting as what is being implied.

I enjoy cycling as much as anyone, but I detest a fairly sizable portion of cyclists I encounter throughout the city.
In my part of the city it's assumed by most drivers that if a cyclist is riding through the neighborhood that they will completely disregard the stop sign and act accordingly. It can be confusing to them when a cyclist observers right-of-way.

I'm no saint, I practice the Idaho Stop too but if I'm at a four-way stop and two cars stop before me, then of course they get to go.

Probably not, most cities in the US purposefully restrict growth, and most of the affordable ones are only affordable through lack of demand and the slack from white flight, decades ago. Texas is the big exception, they have a ton of cheap land and very few rules.
1- Lots of bitcoin debit cards. Localbitcoin is also very liquid even in remote third-world countries.

2- There was a detailed blog post analysis about movement of bitcoin. I can't find the link but you can Google it.

3- I'm pretty sure it is close to impossible to know. You can move your bitcoins to yourself. No one will be able to predict the nature of that transaction. It could have been a P2P transaction between you and a friend.

Seven Rules of Thumb for Designing Web Experiments [pdf]
Moving a 20-pound chunk of metal at 20 mph with a 100-200 squishy on top amidst a bunch of unsuspecting and unexpecting other squishies may be less than maximally safe for all squishies involved. We're talking about 40-some-odd times more kinetic energy than your average squishy walking at 3 mph.

If you're forced to move into pedestrian space for safety from giant metal cages, the safest option is to actually become a pedestrian. For you and for the other squishies around. I understand that it's slow, uncomfortable, and an unpleasant cycling experience. I appreciate the sacrifice you make for the safety of your fellow squishies.

I'd also be happier with Bay biking culture if it didn't consistently make excuses for douchey cyclists.
If you pick "do 1 pushup" as your goal, you'll be more inclined to start, and very likely to do more than 1.

If he identified as 'he' then, then he get's a 'he' when I'm discussing facts about the story when they did that action, objectively.

We don't alter history because of how someone possibly may have felt at the time. We don't know how 'he or she' may have internally identified back then.

Esp. because we're talking actual, objective facts, and not 'to them' or whatever, I think it's reasonably to use the gender that they used to identify to the world at that point.

I also think it's a little absurd the level of linguistic policing we have to get in. I think that we're only scratching the surface of how far you could take it.

Point - your language is fairly 'gender binary normative' - and a bunch of people are now even offended by that. There's so many ways to 'identify'.

The Uni of Oxford student union is now recommending that you haver use 'gendered pronouns' i.e. 'he/she' until the person you are talking about has specifically expressed to you their gender preference.

Meaning - that person with a big beard, beer belly, deep voice name 'Joe' - you can't say 'he' - until he has specifically told you 'he prefers' 'he'. Or you're 'not being respectful'.

It's getting absurd.

Manning seems to identify as a 'she', I'll have no problem referring to her as 'she' if I see her or talk about her presently - but I'm really not interested in being policed or moralized beyond that.

Well, the reality is that people buying the product care about privacy, and it is easy for those same people to ignore Foxconn's existence, because it is far away. Businesses, doing what they do, follow that reality.

This doesn't reflect well on anyone involved, but it is pretty much the way things are.

Apple does, in fact, do better than most of the rest on (for want of a better term) progressive issues like this. They were leaders on environmental issues and is willing to fight with shareholders over them[1] (ditto accessibility, presumably as an example of other efforts not directly-ROI impacting).

Manufacturing is tough to change. Even with Apple-style money, creating the sort of hub of interlocking businesses that are needed to fuel large-scale manufacturing businesses takes decades and some secret-sauce we don't understand - Shenzhen wasn't built overnight. And if Apple did somehow build a shiny new manufacturing hub somewhere in Kansas, the products it built would be likely be substantially more expensive.

That said, Apple is building a US factory. See what happens. It might not change anything. Perhaps you believe they should put more money in to the effort. But assuming they aren't doing anything is incorrect.

LOL @ lawless behavior. This is a ridiculous comment. Drivers speed, run red lights, double park, block the box, pollute the air, honk their horns all fucking hours of the day, and kill a ton of people every year.

EVERY major metropolitan area is experiencing fixed street capacity and a growing population. You cannot add more roads, more cars, more trains (at least in the short term) to move all these people: cycling and walking are the best ways to move in a dense area and we should be doing everything we can to promote the infrastructure and lifestyles for both of these activities.

Getting rid of this toxic ideology would be a pretty good start.
Adding bike lanes doesn't remove other infrastructure. In most cases we already have all the other infrastructure. Nobody is arguing we should replace every form of transportation with biking.
