I guess if you're the sort of person who buys $1 nonsense on eBay this could even sort-of work.

But if you bought something actually valuable, the insurance is useless _even if it paid out_ which it never has. This is because the huge headline dollar value is the _total_ sum insured and individual claims are strictly limited to a far smaller amount.

Let's try an analogy. Imagine if Coca-Cola took out $10M insurance against Coke causing brain damage. Then it turns out Coke has caused serious and irreversible brain damage to everyone in the world who drank it in the last 50 years. Oops. The insurer says OK, just individually post us proof your brain damage was caused by Coke and you'll get 5¢ each. It won't cover the cost of postage, but too bad, up to 200 million people can claim on this insurance, and at $10M total that's five cents each so that's the maximum claim.

That's how the SSL "Insurance" works. People who can prove they reasonably relied on the insured certificate AND can prove they were damaged financially as a result can claim up to a fixed tiny sum of money, which isn't worth doing.

The insurance firms selling it know this is worthless, it would be illegal to sell such pointless insurance products to consumers in most of Europe, but fortunately they sell it to the Certificate Authority which isn't a consumer, and the CA has no reason to care that it's useless, it sounds impressive.
It's not so great for the staff either. Instead of waiting an extra 10 minutes for a parent that's 10 minutes late, they now have to wait 30 minutes because the parent had to make a 20 minute detour to the grocery store to buy milk.

Pay for your car by renting it out on Turo
I think you're right, but I'm not sure I'm wrong... yet.

First, I think I misinterpreted paragraph C w.r.t. how it applies to the ads themselves. I think you're right here, that the ads aren't illegal, since they don't do any discriminating in and of themselves.

However, the text of the law seems to say that placing the order for the ads may be illegal. Placing the order would seem to constitute the making of a statement (with respect to the sale or rental of a dwelling) that indicates a preference (or intention to make that preference) based on race. I realize that might feel like way too low a bar, but it seems to fit.

IANAL, but that's how it seems to me.

You've got to give it to Josh Fetcher, he's great at writing "content" that drags you in and forces you to read it through and through.

Do I respect him as a businessperson or as a professional? No.

In my first week in San Francisco (last May), I went to a "growth marketing meetup" - yes I know, I know. He was talking about how he had a scraper that looked for people with certain keywords in their bio, and then tweeted at them, inviting them to events. He then boasted about how people thank him for the personalised "outreach" and how he had a secondary program that ran accounts that would then favorite that tweet to provide "social proof." I couldn't believe what I was hearing, much less that people were clapping at this!

I really dislike the dishonesty of this type of growth hacking. Josh is the kind of guy to talk up his how "amazing" his company culture is in one post, but then talks about firing an employee on their first day (but cleverly painting it as a sad side effect of #startuplife). He's worked for what, 5 "amazing" startups (never heard of them lol), yet got fired/quit suspiciously quickly from all of them? He'll post about how he's got a company where they boast about having "$500k in deals" (a deal isn't a deal until it's signed mate, regardless of what they say).

But then again - what is the point of me saying this. This is a guy who recently posted about how he's "26 and won't take your advice."

This sort of crap might fly while the industry is booming, but when the tide goes out, we'll see who's been swimming without togs. Good riddance.
I really like the error messages that Joi[1] provides. You can easily use the error.message property to give a human friendly message to the end-user and if the default options don't serve your needs you can overwrite them with custom messages.

Someone made a Joi playground a few months ago, Joi Tester[2], that makes it really easy to test your Joi schemas. If you're curious, feel free to give it a try (I'm not affiliated with the tool in any regards but I do think it's awesome).

> Polling was conducted by Civis Analytics on behalf of Freedman Consulting, LLC of 2,475 adults online in English and Spanish, June 22-23, 2017. Portions of this research were also supplemented by a national phone poll of 256 adults conducted via cell phone and landline in Spanish and English, June 22-30, 2017.

I'm sorry, but that's a serious self-selection issue. The question that you quoted "Do you support or oppose keeping the net neutrality rules, which are already in place?" didn't even use the phone respondents. I wonder why?

I doubt most voters even know the term "net neutrality", but they did vote for a very vague anti-regulation plan. Show me a 100% randomized phone-poll and I'll change my mind.
Feynman initially assumed that if a man bought drinks for a woman, she owed him sex. After these experiences, he assumed that if a man “disrespected” a woman by not buying her anything, she provided him with sex because she was stupid or masochistic.

Sadly, in both these cases, he never considered the possibility that a woman’s sexual consent and worth should not be monetized in the first place.
And how exactly did they verify that the hackers actually deleted the data?
Why not both?

Not to mention, there are areas of the country which absolutely could not support more than one provider. Why should they have to suffer non-neutral net?
No, but there also isn't any particular reason to think it should be.
>Is it going to fly in board rooms in New York or San Francisco?

Yes, because it was clearly known internally at CBS and PBS for years before becoming public. And yet Charlie Rose only gets fired--near instantly--after the Washington Post publishes a piece about him.

In this case the woman in question could quite literally fight that until she was blue in the face and likely die doing so. The responses would range from foot-dragging (if she dies while waiting, the problem's gone away) to offering newer alternatives such as the positive-pressure pumps discussed in the article. Sure those have problems of their own (sanitation, lung damage, infection) but they're a commercially-available alternative.

There's a certain element of "arguing right-of-way" here, and the regulators that you reference are unlikely (these days unlikely in the extreme) to do enough to help her. In particular they're unlikely to do enough on a short enough time period to make a difference.
This also happens in startups and scaleups.

They are doing the right thing by letting the users control their own data, and at most they can make it more complicated to do but not impossible.

There are cases- such as complying with court orders- where removing the data is appropriate (even if a bit futile in the long run).
If you own a Japanese car, really take notice of the JIS section. I spent years stripping out screws before I finally learned of the JIS screws. I always just thought it was me, or the screws were too tight. Nope, you need a JIS screwdriver to work on your car properly. Makes the job of taking everything apart about 10x easier. I'm honestly pretty blown away with how many Japanese cars, and how much culture there is around them, and how few people realize the screws are different.

Does someone here work on Google Inbox? Questions
1) Is there any way to filter for only messages that contribute to the iOS badge count?

2) Feature request: It would be wonderful to be able to reply to long emails in-line. e.g. I can just click on their email and write comments under the relevant sentences in their emails, and then it sends my reply to them quoting their email and putting my info in-line with it. (Otherwise, I often manually copy their email text and write my responses inline with >, but this generally messes up the formatting and could be easier)

Might this be added?

3) Feature request: It would be great to get a view/filter for all messages I've sent that included a question, where I haven't yet received a reply.

Might this be added?

Generally the public only hears about scientists who (1) become prominent in a field that is of interest to the general public, or (2) do something in another field that becomes prominent in the news, or (3) win a major award like a Nobel Prize, or (4) become prominent popularizing science for the general public.

For example, Stephen Hawking is well known because of #1 and #4, and his medical condition helps make him memorable.

Neil deGrasse Tyson is well known because of #4. As a scientist he's just average, but he's great at talking science to the general public.

Richard Feynman is known because of #1 (quantum mechanics), #2 (Manhattan Project, the Challenger investigation), and #3 (Nobel Prize).

Joan Feynman's work has mostly been in areas that are just not that interesting to most of the general public. Interactions between the solar wind and the magnetosphere just do not excite the general public the way black holes and quantum mechanics do.
I completely disagree with the public shaming aspect, it's unnecessary. This should be handled behind within the organization and employees should be aware but the public doesn't need to know.

However, if the insinuations we are hearing is true about unwanted kissing in the workplace to the point women have to turn their head when they pass him that goes beyond a double standard. That would be unnaceptable if a woman did it.

Speaking of which, Janet Nepolitano is a clear example of abusing power wrt gender who needs to be fired.

Great. As a European

I suspect as a branch of the US Government, the Congress of the US doesn't care much what you think about the extent of its powers either. I'm not sure how Snowden has helped you resolve this monumental impasse at all.

I'll applaud anyone who takes a stand against mass surveillance.

Yes, that's what makes Snowden and Manning interesting, they're a new kind of hero - heroes for people who don't read the news (or perhaps much at all). There was very little in their revelations that was new and things dramatically worse were reported previously without gigantic data dumps of completely unfiltered and unrelated data. None of these things set the internet ablaze, despite being far more serious.

I don't wish either of them ill, don't think they're traitors or anything overwrought like that, have no trouble believing they were motivated by idealism, however naive and misguided. I'm happy Chelsea Manning got her sentence commuted. But heroes? Not really seeing it.

But the point isn’t the individual. The questions we need to ask are - why did people feel empowered to do what they did? Why wasn’t there anything in place to hold these people accountable for their actions? And what are the larger patterns and their consequences (e.g. widespread sexism and sexual harassment pushes women out of the workforce/positions of power)

You can read Ajit Pai's statement here:

http://transition.fcc.gov/Daily_Releases/Daily_Business/2017...

> Today, I have shared with my colleagues a draft order that would abandon this failed approach and return to the longstanding consensus that served consumers well for decades. Under my proposal, the federal government will stop micromanaging the Internet. Instead, the FCC would simply require Internet service providers to be transparent about their practices so that consumers can buy the service plan that’s best for them and entrepreneurs and other small businesses can have the technical information they need to innovate.

If you get around the spin in that statement the argument is a fairly conventional one:

Government regulation inhibits technological innovation by requiring internet service providers to provide their services in the same way they always have. If regulations were removed new ideas could be tested in the market and no one can predict what new technological innovations may occur.

How is removing a regulation limiting freedom?

The real heart of this issue is not what Comcast or Verizon will do. If they did things that customers didn't like, and customers were free to leave (as they are now), then they would leave.

Rather the real heart of the issue is that customers may actually welcome the changes. Maybe most people would be happy with only having access to a few sites, or a slow lane for less cost. And the kind of folks who read hacker news would end up being collateral damage, and the original, global, universal vision of the internet will have been lost.

In my opinion the worst-case, dystopian scenario here is unlikely to happen. There are just too many people out there who really do value an open internet, and although there may be a period of adjustment, someone will enter the market to provide what customers want, though it may be significantly more expensive than before.

But I guess it comes down to whether or not you believe in the free market or not. The pendulum swings in american thought, and I'd say we're currently in the panic, distrust and pessimism side, but we'll head back the other direction in a few years.

“Why software jewels are rare” (IEEE Xplore, March 1996)
(a) Feynman never claims anyone owed him sex. All he said was that the men buying women drinks out of an unrealistic hope of getting a one-night stand out the other end were fools.

(b) Feynman never said that not buying her something was “disrespectful” (though the MC did say that the man should (1) be disrespectful and also (2) not buy a woman anything up front). The “disrespectful” part was insulting someone or directly propositioning a stranger for sex in return for a drink.

You are reading a whole lot more into the story about Feynman’s “assumptions” and “considerations” than is supportable by the text. Overall I would say your comment is considerably more condescending and offensive than the story.

If you want to give Feynman crap about his other treatment of women throughout his life, so be it, but this story is pretty thin evidence for whatever case you’re trying to make.
