I know it's cliche but they really did have decent articles, and model profiles, I agree that they certainly went beyond simply presenting women for womens sake compared to most. I wonder, what would a magazine look like that still celebrated the naked female physical form but would pass this "wholesome" standard many seem to judge the Playboy magazine of failing to meet. Are naked bodies inherently 'wrong' to be admired? Looking at older issues from the heyday, and they are pretty damn classy. Sometimes I dont think mainstream Western culture will ever escape it's puritanical sex negative roots. Jealousy, envy, lust and insecurities seem so mixed up in the presentation of naked bodies, many will consciously or subconsciously find it inherently distasteful for as far as I can see. I personally think it's unfortunate that all of this baggage has to be so uniformly applied creating an impossible standard. Some times naked beautiful woman are just naked and beautiful, and there isn't anything objectifying to admire this particular trait than there is admiring intelligence. If I exclusively admire a woman's intelligence, am I objectifying her as a computational machine in lue of a sex machine or something? Idk
Aha, I always figured that was primarily due to the risk of mold and unwanted organic events in the dust compartment.

It's interesting, air and cooling. I read that a problem that might occur if you are changing to wider tires on the car, or lowering the suspension, is that brakes will more easily overheat and thus warp.

Why do you think incompleteness means non-objectivity?

One reason I ask is that, as I understand it, incompleteness concerns the ability to prove certain characteristics rather than meaning a system has/hasn't got those characteristics.
Nice, but it seems to be all faith based?
Should we grant an exception from food handling regulations to new restaurants because they don't have the pockets to have chefs and kitchens as well equipped as big chains? Should we slap big fines on people that just want to try and make a new recipe using innovative ingredients?

For a better analogy, replace food with medication.
Yup. Perfect! Thanks!
Unless I'm mistaken, it seems the author missed this short paragraph in the docs:

With a clear understanding of the theme’s files, you can now override any theme file by creating a similarly named file in your Jekyll site directory.

So the gem is the base theme and you overwrite any of those theme files by inserting a same-named file in the same dir structure in your project root. I've haven't jumped to Jekyll 3 yet but if I'm reading this correctly, this doesn't seem like that big of a deal.

This is an incredible feat.

It runs on 3.5uW, and the homemade cellphone I built last year with off-the-shelf components drew 2A when syncing with GSM antennas.

Some people don't realize it, but GSM is very expensive power-wise, especially on boot when it has to find antennas. Having a device that can be solar powered or even with ambient radios is extremely useful!

It reminds me of PeteWarden's iPhone Tracker back in iOS 4, which took the location data from the phone instead of the photos.

http://petewarden.github.io/iPhoneTracker/

(I then wrote an AppleScript to use this tracking data to tag locations of photos in my iPhoto library, because my camera at the time didn't have a GPS).
I have seen many websites which core functionality is broken by adblockers. The Vodafone website in the U.K. is a good example, you can't login to the client area with an ad blocker on. Just plain bad design, not necessarily malice.
Not willingly so.

Apple appears to be doing as much as it legally can to get around that fact, such as in providing end to end encryption on iMessage.
Agreed.. still, assessing security preparedness, risk management is the basis of drumming up sales.

The blind spot of this type of consulting sales is security is ultimately relative to a foundation of technical implementation, not just policy or process alone.

Management who prioritize funding ensuring policies are in place doesn't guarantee the technical security that is put in place is sound.

It's as much a case of knowing more than your customers, but not enough.

Maybe it's a short coming of technologists to not be more prominently be providing this more than accounting firms looking to widen their existing spectrum in the audit/process field.

Still, the question remains, should technical security implementation be designed, overseen and implemented by accounting firms?

Even if it operates in the unlicensed freq. bands, ie ISM bands, there are still limitations to how much you may interfere with others, expressed in eg duty cycle requirements (ie not sending too long at a time) and energy levels (ie not sending too strong). That's what the FCC/ETSI/CE etc etc regulations do.
All information centralizing in the hands of the few companies that can afford the consultants and lawyer time to figure out what the GDPR even means is an unambiguously worse outcome for people’s privacy.

I would go so far as “any company with a mature regulatory compliance function is an extreme threat to your privacy and not mitigated in any way by the GDPR” and “any company small enough to plausibly be found in noncompliance with the GDPR was never a threat.”

I was also upset about the lack of a headphone jack. When I got robbed and lost my iPhone 6S, I bought an iPhone 7. Similar to a comment down here, within a week; I was on a bus and I got stuck with my earphones cable. Phone went flying.

I decided I had enough of cables and bought a pair of wireless headphones. I am never going back to cables. The battery of mine lasts for 12 hours when continuously used. I charge it while I sleep. Now I am not missing the headphone jack anymore.

People say that apple is dead now that steve jobs is gone. They point to the fact that whenever he leaves apple, apple starts to crash. The difference this time is that he appears to have left a legacy and a succession plan. The other times, he just left and apple decided to run itself differently. Steve Jobs and other staff have engrained privacy into the company, and now apple are pulling it out when it is needed even though he isn't even alive.
And such lies are fiction. Fiction = fake.

Was I unclear?

Lies = fiction

Fiction = fake

Objective unbiased truth = not fake

> It's crazy how accurate this article was. How far along were mobile phones during 1992?

Mobile phones weren't very far along at all. PDA's (personal digital assistants) on the other hand were slow, clunky, had hard to read screens and were expensive, but if we transported a 20 year old back in time they'd definitely recognize it as a primitive mobile phone. They gained actual phone functionality 5-10 years later.

One of apples big innovations was to call them phones instead of PDA's, but when you include PDA's (including the apple newton) the evolutionary history is much more obvious.

> In the days that followed Trump’s election, Zuckerberg used the stage at the Techonomy conference to deny Facebook could have had a hand in the election’s outcome. Only now, we learn that 10 days after Zuckerberg’s Techonomy appearance, Obama warned Zuckerberg privately that he believed misinformation and fake news had influenced the election

Is this not all just a little insane? Of course misinformation and fake news influenced the election. Most political ads are a combination of both.

The supposed Russian agents spent $100,000 on 3,000 ads. I don't know if you guys market on Facebook, but that's not a lot of reach (by comparison, $11,000,000 was spent by the campaigns). Furthermore, reports state the ads they bought were not fake, nor against the terms. Rather they were 'divisive' - covering stuff like gun control, BLM, immigration. Is it 'divisive' to hold an opinion on these things?

Now, here's the kicker: rewind to 2011 and the US government was paying political NGOs in Russia to meddle in the Russian elections. They didn't call it meddling, of course. Instead they were 'promoting democracy'. So how much was spent? $100,000 worth of ads on VK.com?

Nope, instead about $9,000,000 was funneled to NGOs.

This from Reuters:

> Golos, which means ‘voice’ in Russian, has been instrumental in reporting allegations of irregularities....Its money trail leads from Washington and Brussels to its headquarters in a residential neighborhood in central Moscow....In 2010 Golos received a two-year $2.8 million grant from USAID, which extends funding to non-governmental organizations in foreign countries working in areas from the health sector to political competition.

and

> Golos is one of 57 organizations that have been receiving funding from USAID. More than half of the USAID's 2012 budget of $50 million (38.6 million euros) went to groups promoting human rights and democracy.

and

> The United States has criticized Russia’s elections and its record on upholding the rule of law, but has dismissed accusations that its funding of human rights and pro-democracy organizations is intended to influence domestic politics.

The moral panic and the sheer hypocrisy is astounding. Putin, in his wildest dreams, couldn't have imagined inflicting the sort of hysteria currently being whipped up by the media and some politicians.

> The scientific method has been employed by humans (and animals) for as long as we've had brains. Its formal definition is only a recent development.

Science is a discipline we've invented in fairly recent times (think on the order of a few thousand years) as a rigorous means of determining how to explain the world around us and make predictions that can be tested to be true or false.

Science isn't throwing things at the wall until you find something that sticks, or randomly stumbling upon something useful. That's just simple trial-and-error development of technology.

Science is not technology, and science is not required for technology, even though today's technological progress often leans heavily on science.
Actually, we could use the Sybil attack to exploit such reputation-based system.
You left off the qualifier, which makes your premise flawed. I did not state what you appear to quote. By reporting something I did not say, you literally uttered "fake news". Was that your intent?

When any news outlet reports news objectively and factually, that reporting is not fake. When they report it with subjective editorialization, it's BIASED, but if it's TECHNICALLY TRUE, it's NOT FAKE.

If it's a lie, it's fake. If it's fictional, it's fake. Your quote of my message, for example, was fictional.

Is Fox News "fake news"? More often, it's simply blatant BIAS, but yes, certain hosts are well-known purveyors or FAKE news.
Preparing GitHub repository for open source
Yes, I'm using C as shorthand for "C and C-like languages", i.e. ahead of time compiled with manual memory management. It can do C++ too if you ship your own STL.

TeaVM has some sort of experimental wasm backend. Presumably it has to ship its own GC and can't do any kind of runtime profiling, which turns out to be a 20% win for Java and far, far more for other languages (like scripting languages).

My view is: if you were looking to bring to the web better performance and higher productivity, let alone more security, why would you combine low performance with low level languages? That's the worst of all worlds! And WebAssembly will be low performance for a while - they have to redo all the work done so far on optimising JIT compilers.

The Politics of Software: Open Source Utopia
Initially, I wa puzzled by how the grid could be showing placeholders (the grey "A1", "A2", etc.) when there's no placeholder attribute defined in the source code. Then I discovered that the code running in the demo is not actually the showcased 220-byte source code at all. The code is still impressively small, but you should fix this — it's misleading as is.
The result of computing leaving the hands of heavily-technical users and entering the world of the non-technical is that people are terrified of doing the wrong thing and breaking things.

Technical people inherently know that there's very little they can do that's irreversible, and that they'll be able to figure out how to reverse even the craziest of breakage.

Non-technical people do not assume breakage is irreversible, and even when they do, they do not assume that they'll be able to unbreak it themselves. Finding someone to help is a nuisance and can be embarrassing.
