... which implies the body cameras work, since why would they withhold information that exonerates them?
Yeah but at night there's significantly less traffic, so it's ok to stop the trains and rely solely on the bus network because it has enough capacity to handle night traffic.

Where I live is an example of that: during weekdays the light rail closes IIRC between midnight and 6, they only keep it running on weekends because of all the people going out at night (the metro always runs but that's fully automated). Just because the bus system isn't enough to handle a city's peak load, it's usually fine for handling the load on periods where the load is the smallest.

How to Build a Crypto Price Tracker for Touch Bar
Project you can follow that link Unix comprehension, security and programming:

-implementing malloc (C)

-implementing nm and otools (C) (basics options only)

-implementing a ftp server (a fork for each new connection) or a basic IRC-like server (maybe using ring buffers, and only non-blocking I/O if you want to write in C)

-implementing ping then traceroute (in C obviously) (and nmap if you really want to push it).

In security, do small and easy challenges, like nebula (less than a day if you already know your stuff, i'd think maybe ~3 if you don't) and protonstar (i already knew some of the exploits and it still took me 4 days). Don't do those challenges alone, find a friend to help you: a second brain can think of new solutions and allow you to explain what you want to do (and just by explaining you'll get closer to find why it doesn't work, or why it does). The other challenges are not worth it if you just want to get how basic security work imo. At my school we then had to program some stuff like ptrace or strace (i don't remember which), it's pretty helpfull too, and it help a lot understanding gdb. Ah, and prior to the challenges, we rewrote a small part of the libc (strlen, strlcat and stuff like this) in assembly, and it was pretty helpfull (decompilers are fine, but its easier if you know a bit about assembly, at least with protonstar). If you want to do it, chose like 5 easy functions then 5 function which might use rep string operations, and implement them, it'll take you ~2 days (most of those will be research and reflexion, and you can do that during classes, like most of the security stuff actually).

I'll repeat myself, but if you're not crazy about security, i really advice you to work on this with a friend, security is boring when you're stuck (and really interesting when you're not)

That doesn’t describe bitcoin

> You can sell any fraction of it to highest bidder on Earth, from your home and that only requires you trusting sigle third party that trades over billion dollar's worth of this stuff every 24h.

That describes gold — depending on what you count as a “single third party”.

That said, at least it is a number… just one I don’t agree with, because at $7.5 trillion I think that makes Bitcoin so valuable that it becomes worthwhile doing anything to gain 51% control, including high-altitude nuclear EMPs over everyone who isn’t you.
Perhaps "publish" is the wrong word. Control over the camera and its contents should be in the hands of an independent body like eg the IPCC. The cameras should not be able to be turned off by the user for obvious reasons of incentive.

While it's no doubt true that the "vast majority" of CCTV in the UK is privately owned (pretty much every business premises will operate their own private CCTV), there are large numbers of police, local-government, and transport-agency operated CCTV cameras monitoring public spaces in the UK.

If you look at somewhere like London, then pretty much every busy intersection, every public square, every station, every bus, every train, etc has CCTV.

In 2002 there were estimated to be 500,000 public and private CCTV cameras in Greater London, and 4.2 million in the UK. That number is almost certainly much higher today.

> "non native code runs just fine"

Ah, I can see where you're getting confused now. Haxe compiles to multiple formats, including binary formats on platforms like iOS. Native support is not reliant on using the bundled UI framework, native support means compiling code to the native format expected by the OS.

To use an analogy, imagine I build a C++ app for MacOS but I use Qt instead of Cocoa for the UI. The end result is still a native app. Native is about the runtime, not the UI library.
Not just the car, the sides of the image are slightly blurred. The effect is a little similar to chromatic aberration, which tends to give an image an "artificial" feel.
Correct. It does that. The IPC, on the other hand, is there for you to use if you want to talk to other processes on the same machine.
Everybody signs up at one time or another. Highlighting the fact someone's passionate enough to discuss a topic is not indicative of ill-doing. Just means they're new. So were you at one time.

As for the technical meaning of IOTA.. Well, it seems interesting. IIRC, they're doing some sort of DAG so blockchain based slowdowns don't occur. But they're doing really funny stuff with trinary math and rolling their own crypto. Usually not a good sign in the least. Makes me hesitant in trusting anything about this, at least until people smarter than I confirm they did mathematically correct operations. Still, using trinary makes most algorithmic tools just not work...
> now you've still got a window where something can still break everything while the filesystem is mounted read/write

I agree, but I'm also sure you would agree that a small window were things can go horribly wrong is much more preferable than than a perpetually open one (sudo and friends stand testament to this).

Please bear in mind that my comments are in no way an attack on your person or one directed at systemd. What I want is to find a workable solution or, at the very least, a compromise to prevent this type of issues from occurring. I strongly believe that protecting hardware is a core responsibility of any operating system.

Would it be reasonable for me to ask you to coordinate with all the major tool developers to gradually phasing out this behavior? As in both the filesystem and tooling continue to support both current semantics and a newer version until the older semantics can be safely disabled. This is how support tends to get phased out from the kernel for obsolete hardware.

Issues of this type have reared their heads many times already and I expect they will continue to occur if the underlying reason is not addressed. As the person who has the ability to do something about it, I urge you to reconsider.
It's a reason to be equally suspicious of all code changes regardless of the publicly known reputation of a contributor, as it always comes down to the code itself.

thank you for being forthright and explaining the situation publicly. I am a reader and your open letter has prompted me to buy a subscription.

I empathize with you. Making predictions about the future is difficult and there are times when they will be incorrect. When these predictions concern incoming cash and they fail to materialize, the situation becomes frustrating.

I wish you all the best and hope that you will be able to overcome this challenge, as well as any future ones that come your way. I do so for the very selfish reason of being able to continue to read quality content in the future.
Hasn't Twitter racked up 2.5B in losses and yet to turn a profit (though reportedly close to doing it for the first time ever). 2.5B in losses for a platform you could build and scale for what, $10M now. Very questionably successful - some people got rich so yes, i suppose?

History shows us that the risk of the state being co-opted by killers is non-negligible. We can try to prevent authoritarian elements from gaining power, but don’t you think the Dutch in the 1930s felt the same?

We need to be very careful what sort of tools we make available to future iterations of the state, rather than thinking in terms of how much we trust the current iteration (“mass surveillance doesn’t bother me because it’s Obama and I trust him”).

We would like for a benevolent state to have the tools to carry out the services we enjoy, including security, but we should try not to give them too many things that could become effective totalitarian implements at the flip of a switch.

The mass surveillance apparatus is exactly such a thing.

How Wi-Fi Enabled Smart Doorbells Upgrade Your Life Style?
This whole question really stems from a sad and pervasive tendency for 'intelligent' people to overestimate their general expertise, and then apply their value judgements to individuals in their social circle, regardless of its utility or relevance.

Examples of this:

Alan Turing -- father of Computer Science shunned, at the time, because everyone had value judgements regarding his homosexuality (completely irrelevant to Computer Science).

The Mozilla CEO fired for his personal donation in opposition to gay marriage. (Again, completely irrelevant to his relationship with the Mozilla project).

This, of course, continues further, with things such as Hollywood blacklisting (today) Conservatives, and formerly Communists.

The solution is simple:

Within a community, individuals should only be judged based on their contributions and value within that community.

If I am deeply opposed to gay marriage, but a fantastic coder, that should not affect my standing within a community that is entirely code focused.

If I strongly believe in UFO visitations, and disbelieve climate change, but am a great graphic designer, that should not affect my reputation as an artist.

Everyone is not expected to be right, or agreeable, about everything, with everyone else. Aiming for this is pointless.

This inability to separate emotions and passions from cooperating on a shared focus with others, of differing emotions and passions, but equal interest in the shared focus (community) is deeply damaging.

There are enough problems and difficulties getting skilled people together to work on something great -- there is no use at all in reducing that crowd of people further by limiting it to those who share ones views in any number of hot button issues.

Leave politics to your political circles, make your own impressions of people before making personal judgements from reputation, find every reason to work together, not any excuse not to.
This summer, an officer in Maryland accidentally taped himself planting drugs. This case alone justifies the continued use of cameras (especially without the on/off button). Cameras should be under direct control of the judiciary, available to defense and not merely the district attorney's office.

No disagreement there. Just in my experience those jobs are either the first or second to go when things get tough - often because there's an MBA somewhere near the top who recognizes how replaceable all the rest are.

Why was this comment downvoted? It's factually accurate.
American beliefs about their freedom are just that - BELIEFS.

The underlying implication ALWAYS is the Chinese and Singaporeans or whoever can't think for themselves about what is good for their societies and therefore need American moral guidance and leadership.

This is the same tactic the British/French/Spanish etc used to justify colonization. They needed a reason cause by the 18th century, most of the local population had begun to wonder why their kids needed to get shipped off to get killed all over the planet.

Read the views of an Indian or and African or a Brazilian visiting Singapore from more unstable homelands and see what their views are on surveillance is.

Or better still pick up last month's natgeo on global happiness and ask yourself why Singapore tops the happiness index in Asia despite the surveillance. There is no one size fits all cultures solution to social problems.
I can imagine two independent arguments that Facebook might use.

1. It is the responsibility of the advertiser to ensure that the advertisement is legal. Facebook is certainly not the employer, nor is it registered or defined as an employment agency, so by the language of the law [1] it does not meet the definition of an applicable party.

2. If the advertisement itself did not _indicate_ any preference based on age, then it may not have violated the law even if it was disseminated according to age.

The second argument is tenuous because (my understanding is that) users could click the ad to plainly see the targeting criteria, but displaying this is not the doing of the employer, which is the only entity to which the language of the law seems to apply.

[1] https://www.eeoc.gov/laws/statutes/adea.cfm "It shall be unlawful for an employer, labor organization, or employment agency to print or publish, or cause to be printed or published, any notice or advertisement relating to employment by such an employer or membership in or any classification or referral for employment by such a labor organi­zation, or relating to any classification or referral for employment by such an employment agency, indicating any preference, limitation, specification, or discrimination, based on age."

Yes, some advertising will likely work better for some age groups than others. It happens. It is a part of well thought out advertising.

The thing is that they weren't targeting the "right ad to the right user". It isn't like they were customizing ads to different groups hoping to increase their diversity. They were only targeting one group of people and excluding others upfront. No trying to show the ad to older folks nor investing in an ad for those folks. And even if you produce multiple ads targeting multiple ages, it is probably prudent to simply show them to everyone over 18 in the area you are advertising in - just to be on the safe side of the employment laws.

That's a foolish comparison. Public servants are paid in the nation's official currency. Do you believe employees just forget about their salary? And I won't even talk about taxes and supplying the state with goods and services.

Equating these so called "cryptocurrencies" with cash is simply idiotic, and something that only serves the agenda of those personally invested in defrauding the world while pumping the bubble.

"I also assume that you have a hard time finding people willing to work at a place where they learn few transferable skills"

You assume wrong; the MTA has no difficulty finding people to work on the old equipment (I have a close relative who actually works on this equipment, there has never been trouble finding willing workers). Also note that the old technology is mostly restricted to interlocking machines and telephones; everything else (train sets, radios, MOW equipment, etc.) is much more recent.

Those studies don't necessarily give you a definite answer regarding age. Other studies suggest that it starts much earlier: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/00016918679...

Salary and work-life balance expectations definitely play a huge role in this phenomena - I'm just pointing out that there might be other factors too - factors that people often reject up front because they feel uncomfortable with them.
If you're convicted of pedophilia (or rape) in a country, you should not be allowed to be alone with kids (or women) in another (like Polanski in the western world, but other examples exist). Should you?

But if you think that "passive" political action (i.e just being present at a rally, not being a speaker) outside a community should not have consequences inside the community, i think i agree with you (for now, i don't have put much thought into it, my opinion is not definitive).
And you could have done that.
