It is like at the border, when customs officers flip the pages of your passport while looking at you. They spend as much time on white pages than on the ones that matter; in fact they just watch you and extend the time they watch you by pretending to check something, hoping their magical skills will allow them to detect if you get nervous because you are guilty of something.

Either that or the copper could not read.

The amount is low now because of low-hanging fruit: easy CO2 mitigations that can only be done a few times. If tens of millions of people bought offsets, all the easy opportunities would be exhausted and the marginal ton of CO2 would be much more expensive.

Microsofties out there – stop abusing your customer
I opened a MS account for some email testing, and it somehow auto-linked itself to a Skype account.

No permission was asked for, and none would have been granted. What did happen is I opened the email account on a pc running Skype (win32 and web app).

I only noticed because Skype since logs me out randomly, even during calls.

Searching for a fix indicated to unlink any MS account. I thought I didn't have a linked account, but when I checked - there was the Microsoft account that had gatecrashed the private Skype party :(

Oh, MS support told me they no longer lets you unlink the accounts.

WTF Microsoft, these are Dark Patterns - the same deceptive lying customer unfriendly things done in your name during the Windows 10 upgrade trick dialogues etc.

After 30 years as an expert on the MS platform, I want MS to succeed.

Can someone at MS fix this, perhaps for me to unlink the accounts (they were unlinked a week ago, they can still be despite the support script saying they can't). Then re-enable the working feature you had to unlink the account for anyone - a web search shows it's a common issue and customers want to do it. Give customers what they want.

Can people in MS who have some common sense and decency push back to stop the abusive nutjobs who have been creating customer unfriendly 'anti-features' into MS systems.

I know other companies treat their customers poorly, but copying abusive behaviour is the wrong lesson and you will eventually get Weinsteined. Instead focus on the big under-served market opportunity to treat customers well, the way you yourself would like to be treated.

As people's online literacy grows more and more people will realise the deception, bullying, and abuse of the power imbalance that these Dark Patterns are built on, and a history of abusive practices may be the reason today's big companies don't exist in tomorrow's future.
Perhaps then the rules should enforce some sort of "theme" policy. I.e. if you're a gaming account, it has to stick to gaming content, etc. If it's political commentary, sure, and so forth. It might be difficult, but probably more do-able than the nebulous "abuse" rules that they currently have.

Really, it's what I hoped FB would turn into. I.e. you had "themed" pages, and follow them for posts regarding that theme. However, it seems that what happens is if a page and it's admins start getting any non-negligible amount of followers, they decide that it's their "right" to use it as a platform for opinions on unrelated matters. It's quite frustrating.

Some facts not mentioned by the news article:

1. Australian federal and state government spent billions to save the car industry. AUD$2.7 billion tax payer's hard earned $ was spent between 2001-2013.

2. Unions asked for huge pay rises every single year. For example, in 2011, they forced car manufacturers to provide 18.3% pay rise in 3 years, that is 6% a year non-stop for 3 years.

3. Car makers were forced to continue to provide pay rises when they were weighting the decision whether to shut down their production in Australia.

Take a look at the following The Australian article, you'd probably feel happy that you don't have such unions screwing local economy in your country.

http://www.theaustralian.com.au/national-affairs/pay-rises-a...

Australian is an unique country, a ticket inspector makes $100k AUD a year ($80K USD) from his/her unskilled job. With such background in mind, it is not hard to imagine how much you need to pay those workers to build cars.

See, that's the sort of thing he's talking about precisely. You've already made your mind up about Trump's comment, and detracted the conversation entirely. Next thing you know, you and other Twitter users all make a big hoo-ha about a relatively benign comment because you think it's offensive, and decide to report it to Twitter for it to get banned. There is nothing hateful about his statements, and you really should re-evaluate your critical reasoning (or news sources, if you took them for their word on it rather than evaluating it yourself) if you think it does.

Case in point: "And I'm not talking about the neo-nazis and white supremacists, because they should be condemned totally"

Moving back. Political speech, commentary, opinions and debate need to be uncensored entirely, no exceptions, if you are to have a democratic society. Otherwise, you're just thought-policing people into thinking/acting into the norm. Sure, harassing someone over a political view won't fall under that, but the key qualifier there is "harassing". I'd go so-far as to say that any platform that is open to the public needs to be punished for silencing any sort of political speech. That is undemocratic, for lack of a better word. Because it shuts-down general debate.

Although I don't like the thought of my body rotting somewhere, I do think it's probably just fair if my available biomass is turned after something useful after I'm dead, considering how much I will have consumed during my life. It's still only a symbolic gesture, but in that sense I'd prefer being liquefied and used as fertilizer to just being burned to relatively useless ash.

I wonder what the most ecologically useful way of disposing of a body is.

This is exactly the case. If anything different, I'd argue that many looking for "cool Seattle" are really lamenting "little Seattle".

I moved here in 99, part of an influx at Microsoft. I interviewed there on a Friday, stayed the weekend to get familiar with the area, and flew out on Sunday. As we are leaving, my wife and I sat at the airport gate wondering why we would ever want to sell our full two-story, 2800-sq-ft brick Tudor in our hip east coast neighborhood to pay $300 more per month for an 1100-sq-ft 2br apartment in Seattle. Three other couples within listening distance were doing the exact same thing, with a few of the ladies in tears. Everyone was struggling with the same thing -- a job offer in hand (I got mine same day), but how can we ever afford to live there?

We decided to come to Seattle. We bought a house in the confluence of Wallingford, GreenLake, and the U-District. On a bus, it was 15-20 minutes downtown -- and that includes stopping in Fremont and getting stuck at the bridge every day. The south side was much more sketchy (our impression) and we didn't really know anyone who recommended that side of town.

Nowadays, the commute is much longer and the houses around us are all much nicer. Few can afford to move, so everyone is remodeling their existing house.

This notion of "old Seattle" being wiped out has been happening for a long time, and it didn't start with Amazon -- they're just the latest flavor to blame.
Not unique to Zoroastrians; the "sky burial" tradition in Tibet and (parts of) Mongolia is much the same.

Beyond the symbolic aspects, it's practical in regions where there's very little wood for cremation, and the ground may be too hard for actual burial.
Looking at that data it appears that a majority of California's water for power generation is coming from salinated sources, so at least for California the largest user of fresh water sources is still irrigation (agriculture).

Either way, the point that agriculture takes a lot more water than people watering their lawns still stands.

> However, this turns out to be impossible (as far as I know) because of a side effect of the ps4 page size being changed to 0x4000 bytes (from the normal of 0x1000). It appears that in order to change the page size globally, the ps4 kernel developers opted to directly change the related macros. One of the many changes resulting from this is that the smallest actual amount of memory which malloc may give back to a caller becomes 0x40 bytes. While this also results in tons of memory being completely wasted, it does serve to nullify certain exploitation techniques (likely completely by accident…).

This is pretty cool (and probably obvious to a lot of people) as a security technique. Could this be done for consumer OSes? 64 bytes as the smallest malloc-able size doesn't seem too bad for today's ultrabooks...

There is plenty of resemblance: the human brain streams data from input devices, transforms the data and produces outputs (in humans, mostly release of chemicals, muscle-flexing and tongue-flapping... oh wait, that's muscle-flexing too).

This is much more obvious in our much simpler-minded cousins, such as insects: turn on a gas lamp and watch those suckers fly straight towards their doom. Basically, they're little more than clever little automatons designed by nature.

If you are of the opinion that behaviors like this don't occur in the oh-so-complex-beyond-all-understanding humans, I remind you of the millions of Americans suffering from disease and early death because there's too much food around the place.

I agree, the language barrier means a lot is lost. But at the same time each story and even way of thinking is flavored by the language it is expressed in. Certain things cannot be fully expressed in another language, the words don't hold the same charge and history.

If the entire world were to speak one language tomorrow and nothing else, there would be a great diminishment in the world's art, culture and mythos.
