I'm seeing a body of growing evidence that the long-term fracture was due to the War in Vietnam:

* it created anti-government groups like the Weathermen

* it spurred activist groups on campuses around the country to stage admin building take-overs, sit-ins, and attempts to disruption to the war draft

* it created a group of Veterans-- like John Kerry-- who came back and described for the general public horrific war crimes committed by U.S. servicepeople

* it created an even larger group of veterans who came back and described a war which-- even if the serviceperson believed in the aims of the U.S. gov't-- was clearly unwinnable

All of those things led to the use of federal resources domestically to try to quell the growing anger and violence against the war.

There is just no other way the national guard would be deployed and end up firing on students without the war.

Without that war, you would have had an older population who thought the younger generation was naive, wrong, lude, and in some cases immoral.

With the war you had one side thinking the other was becoming a growing existential domestic threat to the country.

Sound familiar?

edit: clarification

edit 2: Don't forget that toward the end of his life, MLK Jr. spoke out against the war and ended up splitting his own base. (Oddly the article doesn't mention that.)

The government is communist but in terms of business, it's more capitalistic than many western countries. People are also hard-working and very ambitious, and there is wild innovation in places like Shenzen (hardware) or Beijing (AI). Although innovation sometimes simply means copying/stealing. There are ingenuous innovation though.

> In fact, shell script has the chance to be a lot more succinct than other languages for a lot of administrative tasks since the invocation of other programs is a first-class citizen.

Sure, so the fair comparison to make is with calling library functions - all those other programs had to be implemented separately too. If I were reimplementing the linked script I'd use something like Puppet where "ensure package installed" is a first-class citizen too.

Hardly anybody will wonder to yet another "what a joke of a man he is" when this will fly into Nazarbayev's face. Locals are kinda accustomed to it. The man was so infuriated with Kohen's "Borat" not for it taking an insult on the nation, but him himself, personally (or so he keeps thinking) lol.

A so so dictator he is, not much of an issue he is. Ones who are the dangerous people in the country are his lieutenants: sharp guys who actually run the country, all waiting for him to finally die.

To locals, him being an unscrupulous buffoon gives much elation, as many see that they will fare much worse were he to be as sharp as leaders of neighboring gangsterlandias

Smartsheet acquires UK-based chatbot startup Converse.AI – SiliconANGLE
Many people here are pining for the old days of Google search where if you knew the operators and some tricks you could develop very specific queries and get a page that matches exactly.

I remember those days too. It did feel like Google search skill was a super power. I also remember my non technical friends and family being pretty much unable to find what they were looking for online. Google did not turn their rambling approximate queries into the results they want.

Now I find that although the precision of the old style is gone, Google is incredible at guessing what you want. Back in the day I might find the page I was looking for on the twelfth 'o' of 'Goooooooogle'. Now I rarely have to venture outside the top 3 results. I find that my family no longer needs my help to fast craft a search query.

Isn't it possible that Google just made the choices that are better for the average user and left some of us advanced users out? If your response to that is "they could leave me an advanced mode", consider how much work it would be to maintain to serve a tiny customer subset.

I think if you want a search engine for power users you want DDG

In the cockpit of every jet fighter is a brightly painted
lever that, when pulled, fires a small rocket engine
underneath the pilot's seat, blowing the pilot, still in
his seat, out of the aircraft to parachute safely to
earth. Ejector seat levers can only be used once, and
their consequences are significant and irreversible.

Applications must have ejector seat levers so that users
can "occasionally" move persistent objects in the
interface, or dramatically (sometimes irreversibly)
alter the function or behavior of the application. The
one thing that must never happen is accidental
deployment of the ejector seat.

The interface design must assure that a user can never
inadvertently fire the ejector seat when all he wants to
do is make some minor adjustment to the program.

I think it's an issue for most people that they need to manage multiple passwords and it sometimes turns off people from actually using the service. With client certificates you install certificate once and (given enough support from web developers) forget about passwords "forever".
I feel like it was absolutely a money issue. In my experience it's a matter of going "well, we'd like to redesign the screen for $x, but we could throw another link on there for a quarter of $x", and the user will always go with the cheaper option. You can't just say "No, we need to go with the more expensive option" because that makes the client unhappy, and we don't want that, and if you only go with the more expensive, the client will suggest the second themselves. And once the precedent is set with a second link, you're out of luck when you try to redesign for link #3. It's a no win.

Or if you're concerned as a user of a regular "safe" site... Google Analytics does all of these things: link tracking, hover tracking, media query tracking. GA or something like it is being used by vast swaths of the web. I don't claim it's the majority, because I don't know, but that's what I assume, that all sites are tracking (whether or not the site even knows it.)

- it would require work to add a retired list check and make decisions.

GET requests just do not make sense for actions: they are cacheable and replayable. An http client/a proxy/something on the backend can cache it and avoid going to the actual logic.

Also, mixing credentials into URL does not feel like a good separation of concerns, e.g. URLs are often logged and analyzed in separate logging/monitoring/analytic tools, so there is a bigger risk to have credentials leaked over some side-channel.

Dangerous Drop-Downs:Bad UI Design Caused Hawaii’s False Missile Alert
> The Friedman approach is merely to recognize that the executive’s responsibility is to execute the desires of the shareholders. The “profit at all costs” mantra comes from the (sometimes false) idea that shareholders care only about profits, and not about using the corporation as a vehicle for social impact.

How do you reach this interpretation? Friedman himself explicitly used the word "profits".

This is Friedman's own words, in the 1970 article he wrote in the NYT [1]:

> That is why, in my book Capitalism and Freedom, I have called it a "fundamentally subversive doctrine" in a free society, and have said that in such a society, "there is one and only one social responsibility of business–to use it resources and engage in activities designed to increase its profits so long as it stays within the rules of the game, which is to say, engages in open and free competition without deception or fraud."

Either we charitably interpret his writings as broadly as possible, and we get into a religious debate over which denomination under Friedmanomics is the "One Truth", or we can just recognize that maybe it's time to reconsider some things in supply side capitalism, and try another implementation of capitalism.

I'm also very tempted to point out that the last point in his doctrine in practice likely is an unavoidable effect of supply side economics, thus incompatible with the idea behind the principle.

Probably not everyone would be willing to create their own user tracking solutions, most websites use third party analytics, which can be handled by generalized rules.

So, when deciding an alphabet for a language, you would go with computer-friendliness as a key metric? Also, what does "computer friendly" mean? How would you break the word "s’i’i’e" into graphemes? "s’" is a single phoneme, but is it a single letter? Does "s’i’i’e" contain letter "s"? If so, why don't we hear it?
If the Kazakhs already have the unique opportunity to reform their alphabet, they should do it right and make it phonetic. Introducing apostrophes is simply stupid, and, if not now, they will get rid of them immediately after the emperor dies.

Yes we do, there are problems which beg to be fixed. Most of current complaints are about security, in one way or another require plenty of CPU horsepower (which most routers don't have - CPU peaks while suddenly switching upling and retriving fullview is still a typical picture in a modern ISP). What it takes to prevent something like NLRI spoofing? Plenty of layers of data security.

And it still won't fix the human problem underneath it.

Security-aware BGP versions like S-BGP, soBGP and psBGP address most of security concerns, add plenty of router load and still... don't solve some of the human problems.

But current publicly made suggestions on replacing it with something completely different even lack proper understanding of design goals of original BGP standard.
