The source seems to be 79 (3) of the Child and Family Services Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. C.11 [1]. I'm not a lawyer, but from my reading, it seems like specifying an age actually narrows the law. It's more like a maximum than a minimum:

---

Leaving child unattended

(3) No person having charge of a child less than sixteen years of age shall leave the child without making provision for his or her supervision and care that is reasonable in the circumstances.

----

Having read through a bunch of this stuff to find the law in question, things actually look pretty reasonable. If there's a problem, it seems it would be with the application or interpretation of the law by the bureaucracy or the courts. Legislation can correct those things, but I guess my point is that it looks reasonable, so there's no obvious easy fix.

Probably not. After all, it’s way easier to kidnap an asset in broad daylight and shove them into a van.

Or they can target the asset’s family members to coerce cooperation. Again, very low hanging fruit compared to mind control. Coercion is the best mind control.
The argument would be stronger in the sense that it would be more persuasive. Which if your goal is to convince people is a highly relevant metric of strength to use.

As disappointing as it might be pure logic is rarely enough in the real world.

Things I've noticed:

* Use of floating point arithmetic.

* Non-reproducible serialization in verify_transaction can produce slightly different, but equivalent JSON, which leads to rejecting transactions if produced JSON is platform-dependent (e.g. CRLFs, spaces vs tabs).

* Miners can perform DoS by creating a pair of blocks referencing each other (recursive call in verify_block is made before any sanity checks or hash checks, so they can modify block's ancestor without worrying about changing its hash).

* mine method can loop forever due to integer overflow.

* Miners can put in block a transaction with output sum greater than input sum - only place where it is checked is in compute_fee and no path from verify_block leads there.
1100/10 (maybe called 1110?) used plated wire. Other Univac models used various memory technologies, going with the technology of the times. Engineering Research Associates built a machine with Mercury acoustic delay lines, and a 1 bit serial ALU. ERA and Echart-Mauchly merged to form Univac, I believe. One of my profs worked on the ERA machine with delay line memory.

Later he got into magnetic storage, and his PhD students went on to do a lot of important work in core and later magnetic bubble memory.
An area you may want to check out since you've got a bachelor's in biology is bioinformatics. For a guide of what to learn, I like teachyourselfcs.com after one learns some basic programming.

This is my problem, right here. To err is human, but I would expect a level of contriteness, rather than doubling down on the "nothing to see here" attitude.
If the kid is too shy to ask for help or has been taught never to talk to strangers, then they would never even attempt to approach a stranger. Seems like that's the main difference: that Japanese children are taught to trust the community they live in.

> Age-appropriate hammers, nails, and hot glue guns I hope?

What's age-appropriate? The nails were too big to swallow and the hot glue guns the kind they sell at CVS. The kids cut and poked themselves and learned to be careful.

At summer camp when he was 8 he learned to weld, braise and solder. 12 kids aged 8-10, one instructor. I saw a photo one parent took: instructor helping kid hammer something on an anvil; behind his back a couple of kids kneeling and welding.

Another story I love: when he was 12, my son and his friends found bottle of vodka in the schoolyard. Being 12 year old boys they did the obvious: filled on of the kids' sneakers with the vodka and set fire to it in the schoolyard. Apparently the math teacher walked by and called out "Boys! Class is in 5 minutes!"

The government has tortured its citizens in the past and is covering up that torture in the present. It sounds like a Royal Commission or similarly significant investigation is needed.

Fascinating. I mean just the general American nuclear family values from 1950s, 60s are still being actively replicated in other predominantly homogeneous countries with strong patriarchy: ex. South Korea where men are the breadwinner, soldiers on command, women are expected to follow and take care of children.

Japan and Korea have highly homogeneous on the confucius spectrum....I believe this uniting values is what allowed people to stay in lanes so to speak..... Honestly, I think it will be a long time before these countries open up their doors to "outsiders". Italian Koreans or French Japanese? I'm disgressing but I'd argue in those European countries you probably won't see kids walking to school alone and for strong safety reasons.

Still, even in conservative places like Korea, liberal changes like those seen in American societies of the 70s mixed with credit fueled bubble frenzy of the late 1980s have begun to appear.

Anyways these are just my crazy theories, like seeing the parallel rise of GDP & scantily clad women in mainstream TV in 1980s (focus on legs) Japan, similar to S. Korea's hyper-sexual K-pop movement (once again legs are in) similar to America's craze for legs during the 80s, 90s. Now it's all about big butts, an economic indicator a new bull run?

Anyways, I don't know how I arrived at this subject but I'm always fascinated by America 70 years ago especially when described from older HN users vs today, and it's echoing impact on the world.
When I was a kid first learning about electronics by taking them apart and other general tinkering, my dad usually took a hands-off approach but did look over what I was working on. He stepped in a few times; ie when working on power supplies and making sure the capacitors had discharged or when I was helping change oil that it had cooled down. Using practical examples of learning like these had worked really well for me but was disappointed there was almost no direct interaction with tools until 7th grade in my district. Was also rather surprised that a number of my peers never received even semi-formal training on how to drill or hot glue things together.
I do think it's wrong to post the same question dozens of times and expect a different result. I also believe that googling is an essential skill to be a decent SWE.
Always a fun discussion when someone calls a language old. "ColdFusion? That old language? You should use Javascript or Ruby or Python and get with the times!"
It's also worth noting that the Weimar Republic had laws against "hate speech", under which Nazis were prosecuted and jailed. See https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/copenhagen-speech-v...:

Leading Nazis such as Joseph Goebbels, Theodor Fritsch, and Julius Streicher were all prosecuted for anti-Semitic speech. Streicher served two prison sentences. Rather than deterring the Nazis and countering anti-Semitism, the many court cases served as effective public-relations machinery, affording Streicher the kind of attention he would never have found in a climate of a free and open debate.
Even before helicopter parenting was a thing in America (and this continues to hold today), the vast vast vast majority of abductions happen by a relative of the child. Abductions are already very rare, but of those that happen only 3.1% are by a stranger[1].

I'd speculate that, after such an age of barbaric experimentation, new and supposedly more innocuous methods that don't require physically detaining/restraining a subject have long since been conceived, implemented, and tried.

I forgot to mention, let your learning process be organic. Let yourself break off into tangents as you learn new things. Pretty soon you'll have 25 tabs open as you're clicking through Wikipedia, github, and youtube. This is good because you'll be able to get a breadth of knowledge as you deepen it in a specific area. Just be sure to know when you need to go back and resume the original thing you started with (which usually can be determined by you're level of excitement and interest as you toggle through the many tabs you have open with ctrl-tab or ctrl-alt-tab).

You'll learn faster if you follow things that are interesting to you. Don't learn something just because you think you have to (in less you absolutely cannot progress without getting past that obstacle in your understanding). This way you'll end up with a body of knowledge that relates to your interests and experiences. Use that to branch out more tendrils of knowledge. Its a very fractal-like growth process.

In all fairness, although I'm pretty much solidly in the inclusionist camp, lists like this on Wikipedia can turn into this vast laundry list of everyone's pet hobby project or master's thesis. You could probably delete 75% of that list and not remove anything that was commercially important or historically significant.

The fact that your article starts with a fallacy (the bayonet training part) doesn't help its credibility...

It is also slightly off topic. The original article talks about catching criminals, yours talk about conviction. The issue is about what constitutes rape in Japan, not the effectiveness of the Police.

There is still an interesting bit in the original article : "The hunt for things to do may sometimes be beneficial. The number of reported cases of children being abused at home has almost doubled since 2010, despite the declining birth rate. That suggests the police are increasingly intervening in the domestic sphere, which they used to avoid.". It means that we might see an improvement when it comes to domestic violence (which can include rape).

(1) For Mathematica (albeit very dated) I suggest _Simulating_Society_ by Gaylord & D’Andria (1998) http://www.wolfram.com/books/profile.cgi?id=3736

(2) For Python, I suggest you start with the github repository _Agent_Based_Complete_Economy_ available at https://github.com/AB-CE/abce

Why should you care about any particular title we recommend? What can we say about a new and unfamiliar title that will pique your interest? How do we convince you that a title is worth watching?

How about, instead of overpersonalizing everything, you say "we recommend X because you liked Y and people like you also like X."
I hope your dream job opportunity is with an oufit where someone who can make every dollar count has an unfair advantage, and they realize it and recognize the added value your grit can contribute alongside those who are high-performers in other ways.

If I had a company in your area or one with a remote working aspect I would not have hesitated to get you on board over a week ago just to try you out by leveraging your abilities which I am very confident could lead to better returns compared to the average operator who has had a lifetime of financial stability.

So it probably doesn't make as much difference as you think what kind of business you want to seek mutual opportunity with. Every one actually needs more of this kind of ability.

The vast majority of other workers have never been very good at maximizing the use of resources or even more rarely making something out of nothing.

All businesses as well as nonprofits actually need a boost in this regard, too bad so many of them are more concerned with culture fit.

Therefore if this doesn't come through, be prepared to focus also on completely different kinds of dream employers where it's obvious you could contribute value.

When you need to come back from losing everything and bare necessities need to be brought back into sustainability, almost any legitimate job could be considered a dream.

Even ones where there isn't even an open position at the time, more so if you have already applied to an opening previously and only been turned down because the number of other applicants reduced your odds.

Take the initiative and show up ready for action, if you can get in the door treat every one you come in contact with like a top decision maker and concentrate on exuding the pure enthusiasm that only a dream job can spark. Make it undoubtable that you really really want to work for that particular outfit so much more than what they have seen before.

Make it clear that they won't be disappointed, and especially if you can get to final decision makers (counterintuitively this can be less difficult when there's no open position, so they are not being hammered by competitive applicants) make it personal and come right out and say "I will not let you down" because you really mean it.

If that doesn't prevail, get back and ask for a part-time job, I did this before and it worked so well an entry level position was created and within 6 months I ended up on overtime.

Real opportunities are always going to be hard to come by, build as much empathy with your ambition to move ahead together with prospective employers so that you can get at least two names from those you are rejected by. Ask them to informally give you alternatives or if really fortunate actual recommendations of who to try next. Eventually you'll have so many contacts you won't be able to call them all, and you'll be more able to prioritize and choose the best leads.

You've got the dream job concept underway, work it.

Cool, thanks. I got the impression when I was first looking for distros that this project did create an initial ISO from source, but after that you couldn't apt upgrade without things getting weird. Maybe I am misremembering or maybe it's improved since then.
Thanks for the balanced view of what probably happened here. The question I'm left with is: why can the marketing team deploy SHIELD Studies without engineering oversight? This seems like a policy 101 thing, and has me worried enough to untick the preference until this is (hopefully) addressed by a future statement.
Usually I hate these tell-me-what-I-know pieces but this one I liked, if only 'cause it highlights (advertently or not) the paradox (appearance of contradiction) between trying very hard to work with fewer people more often while talking to more people more often. However it just blandly states that diversifying your contacts lets you shrink your teams, I think it's a more strenuous effort to do both than that suggests.
Fair enough. The actual reason for his arrest isn't clear to me, but I'll withdraw it as an example of something that is obviously overbroad.

Since it's all becoming a signalling effort, especially at the University level; um, yeah, narcissism - a concentration on appearances rather than learning creeps in everywhere.

But as long as the 1% have more than half the power in society, that's how things MUST be in order to allow their children to elbow their way to the top. The destruction of learning is just collateral damage.
central Europe. Variety of funds to pick from, but there is national fund for R&D projects, financing private companies and cooperation between academy & business.
The main problem: goals. The goal is not to develop anything, instead both sides focus on getting rid of the money. The administration clerks make sure they spend all budget (to show they do a great job) and the beneficiaries make sure every penny is utilised and there is a paper for that.
And that's it, millions of EUR just to fund paperwork and fictional research. Plus a generous amount of corruption, but this is just a side effect of this fiction pyramid.

If I want it, then yes, I'll take that advice in mind.

My concern is not what I want though, but what happens in real life, how some things can be more complicated than the naive first order view (factually false = useless), and how some narratives (both good and bad) are transmitted in society through such methods.

(Edit: I think I misread what you meant by 'flagging', since on HN that word means a user clicking a "flag" link to report that a submission is bad for HN.)

If you flag stories for that reason you'll eventually lose your flagging rights. HN's policy is: paywalls with workarounds are ok, users can supply workarounds in the threads, but complaints about paywalls and paywall policies are off topic.

The paywalls suck, of course, but banning NYT, WSJ, Economist, New Yorker, and all other such publications would suck worse. I realize not everyone agrees with this, but it seems the right call to me, which doesn't mean I like it any more than you do.
