You're missing the point. It doesn't matter what the subject is. If it helps, think of a different area where right-leaning government employees could resist government. (I can't think of one off the top of my head)

The point is: rogue government employees should not be exerting their concept of what it morally right in direct conflict with leaders elected by the people.

It is inherently undemocratic. If you want an unelected oligarchy of technocrats, that's something to debate the merits of. But, anyone who values democracy should be appalled by an unelected bureaucrat setting policy against the will of the people.
> Basically companies like HP and Acer have multiple product ranges with different QA protocols and different margins. Yet people keep buying the cheapest consumer offerings and expect something mil-spec.

Yes. It still surprises me that most people I know - personally or otherwise - didn't figure it out yet: the lower bound on price for a consumer good is "just barely functional enough so that you can't sue the vendor for false advertising". And it's not that people expect milspec hardware. They just expect it to work decently, for a while. But those expectations are still too high.
Speaking of W. The people that are complaining about the Justice department getting politicized have completely forgotten that W already did that by firing a lot of people for political reasons. See Alberto "I do not recall" Gonzales' testimony. None of this is really new. That is why the GOP is complicit. They are getting exactly what they want.

This is patently untrue - DJI has some of the worst customer service I have ever experienced, especially for a 1000$ device. I spent two months calling every other day trying to resolve a hardware issue and ended up issuing a chargeback before getting any attention.

>If you think a recession is coming, what will be the trigger(s)?

Not in the immediate timeframe, but there are some potential breakers looming out there that have potential to hit in the next year or three.

The first is inflation, and the fact that we just pulled a massive tax cut. This will probably lead to stock buybacks, throwing gasoline onto the already booming economy. Usually it's best to save the cuts for busts, to stimulate growth. Now it's like throwing that third fuel pack into the train engine on Back to the Future III.

The second is the education bubble. The wealth gap is slowly but steadily growing for the current generation, and student loans are a strong cause. This is more insidious because you're turning out a generation with decreased buying power that they won't recover from without intervention. Depending on the method of the intervention, it could lead to debt disappearing which will cause another recession.

Lastly is the housing bubble. It busted in some areas but is still booming in others, thanks to no financial reform to prevent it from happening again. This alone won't be a large enough factor to trigger another recession, but could when combined with another smaller cause, like inflation. The fed has moved up the interest rate increase schedule because it's becoming obvious that we're looking at signals pointing to increases in inflation.

This is an example of binary thinking prevalent in self-help books. The scientific reason is, IMNSHO, trying to sell books with simple, easy-to-follow logic, which is irresistible when you're in a dilemma. But it is only a good idea when the consequences of the fear are not so great that you cannot quickly recover.

Are you afraid of being homeless and destitute? Good. That is a good fear to have, and you shouldn't "make it happen." Afraid of jumping off a four-story building? Likewise, good. Afraid of bungee-jumping? That one's questionable, but still not a bad fear. Afraid of asking for a date? Okay, you need to do that one a little so you get over it. Short answer? It depends on the fear and the consequences of failure.

I usually do the thing I am afraid of _if my fear seems irrational_. I have had good success with this: about 70% of the time, I overcome the irrational fear, about 30% of the time, I am still just as afraid later. If my fear is healthy, I leave it alone. So far, I have also had good success with this.
This seems simple, but it's actually very savvy. I don't have time to sit on an already long customer service call to answer a goddamn survey.

> Europe wants to conquer the world all over again.

Politico Europe is a pretty pro-EU publication, so it would indeed be worrying if they saw a return to colonisation.

Luckily, the authors are just employing what's called a metaphor. The last sentence arguably does a better job of summing up the article's thesis:

“This is part of Europe’s exporting its soft power,” said Kuner, the co-chair of the Brussels Privacy Hub. “In terms of regulatory influence, Europe is definitely a superpower.”

Wow, the Google Developer's Advocate blog post (https://medinathoughts.com/2018/01/29/wordpress-google/) sounds like Google is very serious about Wordpress.

Hopefully it leads to great stuff. Historically, there's been near zero interest in php/wordpress amongst the engineering ranks. Everyone wants to learn the Next Big Language/Library/Framework, which is understandable.

Many current/former Googlers have been interested in helping out with a project I'm involved in (GXJam.com), but the conversation ends quickly when I tell them it's WP/php/MySQL.

Closely controlling all of your grocery prices costs way more labor than closely controlling all of your car prices.

BULLISH

FUD is over, boys!
William Bernstein has argued pretty well that the growth of economies over the long term has held pretty stable over (surprisingly) the last several hundred years. See his book, "The Birth of Plenty": https://www.amazon.com/Birth-Plenty-Prosperity-Modern-Create...

The keys to economic growth he identifies are (1) property rights, (2) scientific rationalism, (3) capital markets, and (4) adequate transportation/communication. All of these appeared in sufficient form for prosperous growth several hundred years ago.

There is of course no guarantee of continued growth at same rate as last several hundred years. But given the conditions that have prevailed it has settled at a fairly stable rate as sort of a natural law.

Weak writing, and bad title.

I think what they mean to say is that: in addition to an estimated 1 trillion exoplanets orbiting the (250 billion, ± 150) stars of the Milky Way, they estimate that there is another trillion "starless" exoplanets wandering "near" our galaxy.

Apart from all the exoplanets in and around all the other galaxies in the universe.

Edit: having read the related WaPo article, I don't know what the astronomers are trying to say about exoplanets "beyond" our galaxy. Shrugs.

The HP corporate fine print:

1. Based on internal and third-party testing for HP Jet Fusion 580 and 5403D Printers, printing time is a fraction of the time of the printing times of comparable plastic fused deposition modeling (FDM), stereolithography (SLA), and material jetting solutions from $20,000 USD to $120,000 USD on market as of June, 2017. Testing variables for the HP JetFusion 580 3D Printer: Part quantity: 1 full build chamber of parts from HP Jet Fusion 3D at 10% of packing density versus same number of parts on above-mentioned competitive devices; Part size: 30 cm3; Layer thickness: .08 mm/0.003 inches. Competitor testing variables are comparable.

2. Based on internal testing and simulation, HP Jet Fusion 3D average printing time is up to 10 times faster than average printing time of comparable fused deposition modeling (FDM) and selective laser sintering (SLS) printer solutions from $100,000 USD to $300,000 USD on market as of April, 2016. Testing variables for the HP Jet Fusion 4210/4200/3200 Printing Solutions: Part quantity: 1 full build chamber of parts from HP Jet Fusion 3D at 20% of packing density versus same number of parts on above-mentioned competitive devices; Part size: 30 grams; Layer thickness: 0.08 mm/0.003 inches.

3. Based on internal testing and public data, HP Jet Fusion 3D average printing cost per part is half the average cost of comparable FDM & SLS printer solutions from $100,000 USD to $300,000 USD on market as of April, 2016. Cost analysis based on: standard solution configuration price, supplies price, and maintenance costs recommended by manufacturer. Cost criteria: printing 1 build chamber per day/5 days per week over 1 year of 30-gram parts at 10% packing density using HP 3D High Reusability PA 12 material, and the powder reusability ratio recommended by manufacturer. Based on internal testing and public data, HP Jet Fusion 3D 4210 Printing Solution average printing cost-per-part is 65% lower versus the average cost of comparable FDM and SLS printer solutions from $100,000 USD to $300,000 USD on market as of April, 2016 and is 50% lower versus the average cost of comparable SLS printer solutions for $300,000 USD to $450,000 USD. Cost analysis based on: standard solution configuration price, supplies price, and maintenance costs recommended by manufacturer. Cost criteria: printing 1.4 full build chambers of parts per day/5 days per week over 1 year of 30-gram parts at 10% packing density on fast print mode using HP 3D High Reusability PA 12 material, and the powder reusability ratio recommended by manufacturer.

Some cosmetic formulations use dimethicone and related siloxane polymers in concentrations of use up to 15%. The Cosmetic Ingredient Review's (CIR) Expert Panel, has concluded that dimethicone and related polymers are "safe as used in cosmetic formulations."[20]"

My Little Resume – Joseph Redmon [pdf]
In one sense your question is similar to many others: Why should the sky be blue? Why should gravity at the surface of the earth accelerate objects downward at 9.8 m/s2? Of course, the answer to question of economic growth is more changeable, dependent on societal arrangements that are more likely to change than physical conditions governed by natural laws for the other two questions. But given the economic society we have, 4% or so is the observed stable growth, worldwide.
Smart investors should have an asset allocation that reflects their risk tolerance.

If your allocation is based on your tolerance for risk, you won't need to change it when the market crashes or booms -- such an allocation is based on the risk characteristics of the assets over the long term, not their current performance.

The time to change such an allocation is when your risk tolerance changes, e.g. as you get closer to retirement you will probably start to prioritize preservation of wealth over growth.

It didn't just create a text file. It created an executable text file.

First two paragraphs of the README:

Com2txt is a tool on MS-DOS which converts a com file to a text file. It's DOS generic. Unlike tools such as uuencode, the text file generated by com2txt works as a com file, exactly like the original com file does. Using com2txt, you can create a com file which can be sent through networks such as internet, and runs without any decoding.

Moreover, the text file got by com2txt consists only of ECHOable characters; it doesn't contain characters such as `<' or `|'. So, using ECHO command, you can easily generate the textized com file and use it in a batch file. For detail see section 4.
