This is obviously intended mostly as an opening salvo in negotiations, and has little chance to become reality. But there are similar ideas that seem almost like common sense, yet are pretty rare in reality:

A right to reduce hours to, say, 50% minimum could seriously improve quality of life for many. Of course you'd need some sensible limitations, i. e. a restriction to larger companies where any fluctuations would average out. But I've seen quite a few workplaces succeed with such a model. "Sabbatical" programs (get 85% of your pay for 7 years, with the last year paid but free of work) have even less impact on work.
The 'rules of war' are written by those on top, and they tend to benefit them. Chemical/biological weapons are relatively easy to make for smaller nations, and their development can be disguised. Nuclear weapons are the opposite on both accounts. As an aside, this is a recurring theme throughout history. Chivalry, for instance, had a not coincidental effect of ensuring that knights were very rarely killed in most battles.

Look for what can't be done in warfare and it tends to have a direct link to strengthening (or sustaining) the established powers at the expense of 'lesser' forces.
I think some of it might be the convenience of being able to speak to one another without the children knowing what is being said as well. My father's parents knew German and he wasn't taught, but recalled many times where his parents would speak German to each other in front of him, ostensibly so the children couldn't understand.

But I think a lot of the reason it is lost is just how it is unnecessary. If everyone understands English and primarily speaks it, there is no real need, or opportunity, to learn/use a second language.
People asked the same about PC's, iPads, and general relativity.

I looked at the reviews for The Last Jedi and I'm not seeing a ton of men's rights reviews (but they might be there just buried lower down). In my experience most people either fall into the the categories of thinking the movie was "fine" or "awful" and I think that because people with strong opinions review much more frequently it pulls the ratings down a lot.

Some fun facts and thoughts:

- Seuss sought input on the book from his acquaintance, marine General Victor H. Krulak.

- Like The Lorax, the story is structured as a tale from an older generation to a modern one, where the younger character is a stand-in for the reader.

- As much as Seuss was against transparent moralizing, he delighted in obvious satire, and he wasn't afraid of being too on the nose. The Chief Yookeroo, the back-room boys with their slide rules and spectacles, the butter-up band. The "Your yookery" sign. The slavic-named antagonist VanItch.

- This book is interesting to compare with Seuss' editorial cartoons decades earlier, during WWII. At that time, he was producing unabashed anti-axis propaganda. During his lifetime, he had not just observed the kind of wartime fervor the Yooks subscribed to - he had been an active participant in it.

Reminds me of that story with Microsoft and XML 20 years ago. The story goes that Bill Gates said in an interview that XML is an interesting technology, and that caused all kinds of people at Microsoft to go out of their way to use XML in their projects in some way, in a decentralized effort to please Bill.

The Memorable Elevator Pitch That VCs Can’t Ignore
Even the question "Is this client one of ours?" is a bad question to ask. A much better question is "Is this specific action authorized and authenticated?".

When you only authenticate a client, with a mechanism such as TLS Mutual-Auth, or ALTS, you still aren't really authenticating the actions, just the channel. That leaves the system open to request smuggling attacks, hi-jacking attacks, context-mismatch attacks (TLS is particularly cumbersome here, because authentication contexts can change mid-request), layering violations like credential lengthening problems (do you tear down a previously opened connection when the credential used to establish it expires or is revoked?), and vulnerabilities in the channel authentication mechanism (e.g. X509 and ASN1 are both notorious problem areas).

I work at AWS, so I'm biased, but it seems much stronger to me to use a system that AAA's each action, like a request signing protocol (ours is https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/signature-vers... ).

Request signing systems like that authenticate each action, which is very granular, it permits strong offline signing (just like my iPhone banking app does), and it's agnostic to the details of networks and clients and things like hi-jacking and smuggling just can't work.

Of course, today's browsers aren't really set up for this; they don't support built-in request signing, but I still find it a little weird to see VPNs/networks traded for a model whose expiry date also went by years ago.

Well, on the one hand, sure. I think Alex Jones is a conspiracy-theory charlatan, a good representative of "fake news" as a matter of a fact (see: Pizzagate). The fact that his site also pushes dubious supplements (like "super advanced vitamin B-12" and "survival shield", which is a "proprietary nascent iodine" formula) says it all to me.

On the other hand, no. I'm not comfortable with a social media network that determine your news feed "appropriateness", via an opaque Brazil-esque (the movie, not the country) bureaucratic process that says "yay" or "nay". And while Alex Jones may be an easier business case here due to the "fake news" elements, I'm not seeing much transparency about what their post blocking process really is. Other than it seems real messy and haphazard, and a lot of people complain about it for various reasons, whether you are a black person posting police brutality videos, or are activists documenting the Rohingya genocide, or have conservative opinions, or are Palestinian, or post breasts no matter the purpose, or post iconic Vietnam war photos, or various other reasons that come up in articles.

If Facebook made their guidelines clear, and the process was transparent, I'd be more comfortable. When the Wikipedia community decides a source is no longer reliable, you can at least read the debate on the reliable source noticeboard. They have guidelines (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability#Reliab...) and an ID guide (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Identifying_reliable...). It's possible to disagree with the decision still, but at least you have better context.
Ice breakers often get stuck in ice more so than any other ship they can clear only very thin surface ice basically they are used to clear the ice which is too thin for supply ships to offload onto so they clear a path towards the thicker ice shelf or land.
The article is saying that it will peak in 2030, as in after that it will decrease.
So clearly this is the build up for the dystopian post apocalyptic novel where our protagonist finds a completely functional and "brand new" warship frozen solid in the ice. They use primitive tools to defrost it and using it in a daring and surprising raid, defeat the evil warlord who has enslaved the former population of New York :-)

Of course it isn't really all the much different than people in Boston who leave the 'good car' in the garage all winter because of the risk of damage associated with operating it in icy conditions.

Due to Trump, and all the negative press USA has gotten lately, I wonder if it makes an impact of how eager people are to move to the USA anymore?

Also, in case foreigners get accepted to YC, will it be more difficult than before to be able to stay in the USA for the duration of the program?
there are two problems here:

1. Turkey's government is brutally suppressing opposition

2. The means Turkey is using to identify its opposition is flawed.

You don't have to talk 1. to talk 2.

Case in point is that you can legally talk 2. in Turkey but if you talk 1. you get fucked. If you try to fight 2. you help a bunch of people if you try to fight both 1. and 2. at the same time the chance of you solving 2. is diminished because Turkey's government will be suspicious that it is propaganda against them because you included 1.

Thus: one problem at a time.

Also remember that your attitude leads to shit like Iraq. Its perfectly "legitimate" for a government to be autocratic. Russia is a government, Iran is a government, China is a government. They wield the power, is that not legitimate?
You seem to be suggesting that only "legitimate" governments are democracies and that sort of attitude leads us back to Iraq where we go on a liberation war and heroically give people a democracy that they didn't fight for themselves. Reality is messy and complicated and "nice" ideas like making everyone have the good government are well intentioned but naive.

I will celebrate the day Turkey gets its democracy back but it has to do that itself and its not the problem of anyone who isn't Turkish as their "help" may well hinder.
By that logic, manufacturing in Germany would have seized decades ago. The fact that it hasn't, and that other high-wage countries (USA, Scandinavia, etc.) are still flourishing, shows that such Economics 101 simply don't represent the real world.
We could point to German products which already sell for premium prices (say a Miele vacuum), they don't appear to have been killed by cheaper similar products from elsewhere.
With nuclear war there isn't just one worst case scenario but two. On the one hand even a small scale nuclear exchange with modern thermonuclear weapons could be so incredibly devastating that it would set back human civilization substantially, disrupting the entire global economy and technological/industrial/agricultural infrastructure, perhaps even leading to a cascading collapse of civilization. On the other hand, it might not. In which case people might be encouraged to think (as was common during too much of the Cold War) that nuclear weapons could just be shuffled into the military toolkit, for occasional use in "ordinary" warfare.

I grew up in the '80s, and I well remember the omnipresent feeling of dread that I'm sure most people from that generation experienced on a regular basis. Everyone knew that global catastrophe was a moment away, that any moment of any day a missile could be launched and only minutes later nuclear annihilation would rain down. You can see that in the popular media at the time, of course, the Terminator movies being a particular example, but countless others expressing that feeling (some more direct than others). It's difficult to explain what that feeling and that deep-seated knowledge is like without having experienced it. At the end of the Cold War it felt like a great weight was lifted from the world. But since then, especially most recently, it's felt that that weight has been incrementally coming back.
This is one of the most absurd talking points of this whole thing. It doesn't take "superpowers" to zero in on existing rifts in a society and magnify them. It has been well documented that Putin has a well-oiled disinformation machine that is adept at exploiting existing social issues.
What I don't understand is all this fuss about the Democrats having to vote to pay for Trump's wall, after all he promised that Mexico would pay for that, it shouldn't be a sticking point at all

The entire post on https://skyfallattack.com/ comes off as preachy and defensive.

"social experiment" is a defendable position, but saying that this wasn't a hoax is just incorrect. The site was a falsehood deliberately fabricated to masquerade as the truth.

A few people got interested in the possibility of an attack, which is understandable given the current climate, but I doubt that anyone took this website seriously, more as just something to keep an eye on.

I don't get this. I'm trilingual, and I think in English, but I'm fluent in the other 2 languages as well. My parents converse in the mother tongue at home, but with friends they would switch to another language. I think parents are vastly underestimating the cognitive powers of young children.

> If you doubt this, consider a company who has (or can find) equally productive employees who will work 56 hours a week for the same wage. This company will produce twice as many trinkets.

If Unions are relevant, it means they control negotiations for their whole segment of the labor market. This is the case at least in Scandinavia, and I suspect it is in Germany too.

So for example: if the auto workers union say that the work week should be 35h and the minimum wage €2k/mo, that means you can't set up a car plant and build cars with workers paid less, or working more.
Each time an employee tries to connect to an application, the access proxy makes an evaluation of how much trust that session can earn, and if it's equal to or greater than the trust required by the application, the proxy allows the traffic through.

The trust earning is based on host/machine information as well as user and authentication information.
The spinal shots have done wonders for me. I have a herniated disc which caused pain in my leg so bad I couldn't walk. I can normally deal with pain, but this was something so bad I really understood how people want to take pain killers constantly.

I found a conservative, non-surgical MD who ordered an MRI and gave me the shot. He said I may need more shots in the future, but as long as I'm not in pain I'm good. Along with that, I have changed my workouts to include a lot more stretching and core strengthening. I'll probably never deadlift 500lbs+ [1] again, but that's a young persons game anyway :)

I'm not sure I agree with you about Apple not building moats. Many services that Apple offers today, mostly under the iCloud/iTunes umbrella, are nontransferable.

I get both why people downvoted you and why people defended you.

One developer can certainly be responsible for coding many microservices and even maintaining them depending on the scope, number of users, etc.

Sometimes people might even rotate with a core architect coordinating how they all interact and if they are consistent with each other.

Discussing about microservices can be very confusing if people are thinking about different things and, as always, when there's a good idea implemented in a specific context and people who don't use it get exposed to it as a silver bullet we'll end up with a huge backlash like in this article.

The end result may be development without a 3rd party frameworks, perhaps in a way that allows you to mix and match libraries without needing to use a large underlying framework. However, as things stand now there is clearly a need for JS frameworks. They are plugging gaps in vanilla JS.

My argument isn't that frameworks do not have any utility (right now), my argument is, if you stick to a smaller selection of frameworks and work on both polish and flexibility, you'll have frameworks that make people want to develop in JS. At the very least it'll mean that the basics would be easy, and design decisions could be deferred until later in the site design.

I think this book elucidates something that I miss in most popular discussions, which is fragility. As the two sides escalate, the entire system becomes more fragile.

E.g., the dude at the beginning uses a slingshot which has the consequence of breaking one other dude's stick. Not so fragile. But by the end neither dude can use their weapon at all without destroying everything on both sides of the fence. And the capabilities to use the weapon is put directly in the hands of the two dudes and no one else. Extremely fragile.

Is this a studied phenomenon? For example, does the auto industry measure fragility wrt putting networked self-driving cars on the highway?
