>You can socialize without bringing sex into the equation

Why though?

Do you also think that all romances/marriages that started in office/professional settings are bad, and should be stopped?

Else, why would socializing (in other aspects, like being friends, drinking, talking etc) is OK, but "bringing sex into the equation" is not? How is sex different?

Is it just because a puritanical society considers it different than being social in other ways, a leftover from when it was considered dirty/sin?

Or because of the potential to mess it up? Well, socializing otherwise can mess up too (can turn into extreme hate, bloody office politics, etc). Nothing is perfect.

Though, "don't grope people who don't want it" and "don't masturbate in front of others that didn't ask you for it" sounds pretty easy to attain without banning all romantic/sexual relationships from a professional environment.

After all, we don't want those things happening in singles bars either -- it's not like work is something different in that regard.

The good stuff though, e.g. too people falling in a romantic relationship (or fucking like rabbits in an office closet) why not?

>Women aren’t sitting around wishing their boss (or guys from work generally) would hit on them.

Women in general not, but SOME women do. And that's for boss. If you take it to "guys from work" that's an ever bigger percentage.

>you would probably rather your programs crash than give away private information

Crashing on a security issue is a good thing for every kind of user. Crashing on a latent bug that COULD be exploited (maybe not possible at all) is a totally not desirable situation. The problem here is that hardening methods lack the ability to make that distinction.
> The HomePod will be mostly limited to playing tunes from Apple Music, controlling Apple-optimized smart home appliances and sending messages through an iPhone.

I have an Alexa and this is literally all I do with it - music, smart home stuff, and maybe the occasional timer - except for sending messages, which it can't do.

I briefly tried some of the "skills" but they're awkward as hell. You have to say something along the lines of "Tell <app name> to <command>". Yikes.

So I'm pretty excited about the HomePod. Improved audio quality for music playback is genuinely enough to convince me. The assistant parts are just software, Apple can improve that in the future.

> market failure that radical transparency isn't rewarded.

People want to believe. They're willing to risk lots of money to obscure systems for that. The last thing they want is transparency ruining the illusion.

I think Gemini was trying to be the most legitimate of Bitcoin exchanges, but without the shadow puppets trading producing fake volume on other exchanges it looks very empty.
Though, I think that the time between PSM1 and PSM2 will be significant. Usually default options are changed once basically all distros compile with another option without widespread breakage. And once no LTS kernel with PSM1 is supported, you merge PSM3.

Might take years but atleast the airplanes keep flying instead of crashing their computers and consequently themselves.
Kernel is modular. Literally everything can be enabled/disabled.

Aviation has strict regulations and that's why most critical systems have redundant parts. Putting a sigle critical component into plane is stupid in and of itself. Think of simple freezing in high altitude or overheating otherwise.
On the other hand I would rather fly in a plane whos altitude meter shuts down and switches to redundant circuit other than letting it report incorrect values...
There was still a true bug because "gimme gimme gimme" appeared when calling "man -w", and that's the command they were using. But I still don't understand how a test could break because of this.

> the actors behind the cartoon are reading a script written by someone...

So.. it really doesn't matter who teaches and who listens, because ultimately they're both actors reading from a script. How does that play in favor of your argument?

Not to mention the woman he's explaining to is a scientist researcher, and at the end of the video, they have Dr. Azra Raza as a guest (who is also a woman) to further solidify the arguments.

If you think you're defending anything by calling it "mansplaining" and complaining that women aren't treated fairly, you're wrong and you're not helping anyone.
The immutable data they hold on us has always scared me. I have always imagined a middle man or "middle service" would be helpful. This service would be like a database and for my example I'll just use email addresses but imagine also passwords, birthdays, maiden names "encrypted of course" but that's beyond the detail I'll go into. This email service would let me tell the mailman my email is somethingUnique :myRealEmail@domain

Well if I start getting spam at somethingUnique:myRealEmail@domain then I can call the person out about it I gave it to "I'm looking at you Facebook". So some spammers now have that address but I can shut it down or change it, I also could have had a list of people who had that address and if they still use it I will still get messages. There's accountability and even though something static was given away it was only a "pointer" to a static item so that I can change the pointer. I should know who knows what, how they think they know it, have the option to take it away, etc. but that's not really possible when companies like equifax collect data on us and it never really seems like they ask, but I'm sure we signed our life away while buying a car and thinking about picking up chicks in it signing papers in a daze.
Hi,

I have kind of a "FOSS diplomacy" question: is the kernel core team involved in this effort, or is it something totally third party to them? (the purpose of this question being to know if linux core team gets involved in go programming)
but well written opinion pieces

Or poorly written crap opinion pieces. In the end, it doesn't really matter if it's well-written or not, if something is opinion posing as news, it contributes to the problem.
Apple drops hundreds of VPN apps at Beijing’s request
This reminds me, of Edith Einstein, niece of Albert. She was also a talented physicist overshadowed by her extremely famous (male) relative.

Her academic path even crossed with that of her uncle: she wrote a paper analysing the physics of radiometers, after which Albert did too.

[Her paper argued in favour of the radiometric force being proportional to the surface area of the veins, Albert argued (more convincingly) in favour of a model in which the force in proportional to the perimeter.]
Skype removed from China Apple and Android app stores
John q citizen will almost necesssarkly use a Corp to publish. As brought up in the radiolab episode Citizen’s United’s movie was in response to Michael Moore’s anti Bush movie. when asked why it was not banned the government said “because he’s media”. nothing to do with corporations. His movie was published by a corporation (Sony). Instead the government found itself in the position of saying who is allowed to publish. Sony yes , other Corp no.

maybe you think the solution would have been to ban Moore’s movie. But in that case the government now has to decide what is and isn’t a political movie. Every movie projects some sort of world view and people who disagree with that view see those movies as political propaganda

This "do not happen at the same time" is true in plain Xorg as well, though, since the final blit to the screen happens in the X server and not in the application.

Your example of 100fps vs. 130fps on the same screen is inherently unsolvable in a proper way with anything less than a 1300fps display. So you have a bunch of tradeoffs, and I'm sorry to say that if the tradeoff you prefer is tearing, you're in the losing minority by far.

That said, if you truly wanted to write a tearing Wayland compositor, you could easily do so, and in any case plain X is still going to work as well.
A nice video tour of the SR-71 cockpit (front and rear) by a former pilot. A must watch for any Blackbird enthusiast. - https://youtu.be/tj9UwKQKE3A

How Sweden's arctic 'millipede town' Kiruna is slowly moving
Makes me wonder where the next "shift" will be. A lot of things that are unambiguously bad today were not yesterday, and there is no guarantee that something you do today will not be seen as taboo tomorrow.

I've had conversations at work in the distant past that I'd probably get fired over today. What about 20 years from now? I've recently mentioned in co-worker chit chat that I like to go the the range every now and again to shoot clays and targets. How do I know at some point in the future I won't be forced to resign for a "history of discussing weapons in the workplace," after those cultural norms shift again?

The first is rediculous. Market cap is meaningless, especially in bitcoin where it isn’t even known well how much coin is accessible, and velocity of those coins in circulation is so low and order books so thin by comparison.

The effect is exactly comparable to how much value will disappear. That’s how many lives will be affected, people disillusioned, etc.

I honestly don’t know what you’re trying to argue in the last paragraph.

How to write an asynchronous Zsh prompt
Look, that is all fine and dandy but I am much more angry at the actual users. Who forces to use anything that you mentioned? And in that way. I know it is not easy to be against all that money poured into researching how to trick your psychology to make you do what they want, but you can.
Mine example (just for examples sake) :

- Never read local news both online and offline because in my country, Serbia, all newspapers are so bad and just use click baits and target human emotions without real reporting. Fake news everywhere. I only open news when I hear from the social circle about something important and want to read more about it.

- Deleted facebook from the phone, use it once daily on the PC for a few minutes. There is still value in it if used sparingly. My wife also use it to promote her fitness business.

- Be very mindful of what you install on your phone or PC. Every app is potential time waster even if it seems useful at the beginning.

- I call my self just Software Engineer from the day one (have more than 10 years of experience now)

- Related to games, I do not have much time to play them now but when I do I only buy games with good single player story. Never buy games that just require too much grind/time wasting/money sinking. Only multiplayer games that I play are casual in person ones (PES, FIFA).

- I eat unprocessed food as much as I can, me and my wife prepare it. We both train regularly in the gym, go on occasional hike in the nature, party or whatever. Trying to enjoy life on our terms in general.

All in all. I know it is hard and I am far from perfect, just wanted to say that users can vote what they want by their actions. But I really can`t explain to myself why it seems to be so hard for many.

The real reason we have few ISPs is that building facilities require large amounts of capital, returns are low and the incumbents have already built out the profitable markets.

Regulation is not the root of the problem. Sure, lessening the burden would help, but not solve the problem.
No one likes creases – may it be clothes or face. When we say creases on the face, we mean those unattractive under eye wrinkles. Once your skin loses its natural moisture and elasticity, wrinkles begin to appear under eyes and on the forehead. In fact, they are one of the clear signs that you are aging. Though this is a natural process, there are certain things that can worsen the condition. These usually include:

Exposing yourself to UV rays
Unhealthy diet
Not being hydrated
Smoking
Stress
Lack of vitamin E
Drugs
Pollution
Wrinkles take away the real beauty of your face. There are many misconceptions that wrinkles cannot be treated unless we use options like lasers, chemical peels, and surgery. Contrary to this, we have listed top 50 proven natural home remedies that are known to lessen your under eye wrinkles. Before we list them for you, know a few things.

Wiki page on battery? [1] Or any legal text on it...

Battery in common law is basically any unlawful offensive/unwanted physical contact, though various jurisdictions limit or define this very differently.

So it's not that kissing or grabbing is specifically called out, but that any physical contact to the extent that it is unwanted (battery and assault both depend on the recipients subjective views in common law; in codified versions this may be different) and/or seen as insulting or offensive in the relevant jurisdiction is likely to be battery unless specific other criteria comes into play.

A challenge is that in some instances you may be thought to "silently consent". E.g. in the UK this very explicitly comes into play with ordinary contact in a crowd, and presumably all jurisdictions will recognize this in some form or other. But absent codified rules, precisely what/how/when you may be considered to "silently consent" to may vary wildly in different common law jurisdiction depending on details of precedent setting case law up through the ages and changing social expectations.

E.g. a lot of people would likely have expectations of a higher level of "silent consent" on a night club dance floor, for example - but conversely because battery is largely down to the subjective judgement of the victim, my ex is due in court tomorrow because some guy grabbed her ass in a night club and refusing to apologize (admittedly "helped" massively by the guy lying to the police about it once things escalated)

This kind of reminds me of my dog. He was quite happy with chasing birds whenever they landed in the garden. One day he caught one and killed it.

Then he kinda ignored the corpse for about week because he didn't know what to do with it and then we removed it from the garden (since we found it by then)

The bird was probably sick anyway since my dog is one of the worst hunting dogs I've seen.

I'm pretty sure it's due to the domestic upbringing, if he had grown up on a farm and actually had to hunt small rodents then he'd probably know how to eat them.
> So the costs of compliance are low, if not zero.

How could this possibly be zero? If a town's ISP has a bandwidth of 100Gb/s and has a demand of 200Gb/s by their customers, they can:

- prioritize certain bits such as live streaming that can't be slown down without degrading user experience, unlike text (current solution)

- slow down everything as forced by FCC's Net Neutrality (which would make live streaming unwatchable)

- invest in bigger infrastructure and pass the cost down to consumers (which is not zero cost as you claim)

So there you go. Another fun fact, for anyone that has lived through the 80's and 90's, the FCC censored TV and radio to hell with list of words, topics and images that could not be used on public broadcasting as it was considered to be public utility. If the FCC considers the internet public utility in order to impose Net Neutrality, they will be granted the same power as they were on tv. If you think twitter censorship sucks, wait for what's coming when Trump or another administration decides to impose similar rules through the FCC with the excuse that it's now a public utility and that using bad words (against politicians or else) at a certain hour is bad for kids. Don't forget that the boss of the FCC is nominated by Trump. People love asking the government for more regulations even though they always end up paying a high price for it. Just be careful what you ask for is all I'm saying.
