> How can my argument be US centric when I'm European and have never even visited the US?

You don't have to be from the US for your post to sound US centric. It sounds exactly like every other "USA is da best! The east is inferior in every way. We have zero problems." argument which is found everywhere online, especially on sites with a large proportion of US users (like HN).

>early Islam was far more tolerant of other creeds

Jesus lead armies to murder those who wouldn't join his religion, then realised that he could keep some alive and tax them instead .. so the men then got a choice to convert or pay tax, women and children were still raped and taken as slaves however.

Oh wait, that was someone else as reported in other religious texts.

What GDP/capita band was turkey at before Erdogan? Answer: $3k (google it yourself)

Also, why do you say ‘stuck’? Growth is still rapid despite ~4mil refugees, a war next door, and a difficult geopolitical environment. Europe collectivel lost their shit over a million refugees!

Banning wikipedia was stupid, but hardly matters to anyone with 3 neurons to rub together. Even free browser-extension class VPNs are enough to get around that ban (and the bans on porn sites as well)

I am sure many top tier developets and other talent have left Turkey, but this is a common problem across the middle class world. Look at tiny, free Estonia or other EU countries near Turkey. They are worse off already and are de-populating rapidly (bulgaria, romania, etc)

Turkey is far from perfect, but I continue to support AKP because they continue to deliver. The main opposition (CHP) are members of the Socialist Internationale and are unreformed old leftists. They ran the country for most of its Republican history and didnt deliver anything for the vast majority of Turks. We didnt get economic growth or freedom. Just google around for the level of Kurdish support for Erdogan, i think many on this site would be surprised.

> 1. Suppose that the data is used to pay for keeping the site afloat? Does that make it essential?

IANAL, but intuitively, I'd say no.

In a technical sense, it's not essential: Even if your whole income is based on data reselling, your site wouldn't instantly become unusable the moment you can't collect any user data anymore. (Unless you deliberately make it so, but then that's your decision and not a technical necessity)

Yes, you will operate at a loss, but that is your problem as a business. It doesn't have anything to do with your ability to perform the service.

In a more general sense, basing your business model on data collection is your decision. There are other ways to make money on the internet. So if you have the option of finding other sources of funding, it's not "essential".

In Pulse I just used the LADSPA module, and loaded it with
pactl load-module module-ladspa-sink. There is an example in the docs[0].

I stacked a number of filters on a null-sink and then used the loop-back module to put the sound from the mic into the top filter. Then I redirected mumble to the null-sink’s monitor. The filters I used were the ones I found in the debian package repo.

In comparison, it was much easier to do in JACK, where I could create the filter stack in jack-rack[1], which has a GUI,
and do the plumbing in qjackctl.

Normally I don't bother presenting arguments to AKP supporters, but you cannot make statements based on GDP per capita growth without actually comparing the changes in income inequality, purchasing power parity (both inflation and exchange rate), and increased taxation with little government investment in return over public infrastructure. In addition to that, the opportunity costs and potential growth levels are also very relevant here.

Looking at Turkey in its own bubble might look great to you, but try to do so by also taking into consideration all that is not so rosy. You can ignore rampant corruption by showing off with the figures that go up, but you cannot possibly ignore the unsustainability thereof.

Finally, Turkey has had a turbulent past, even recently so. Attributing the bad times only to the parties in charge during those periods is an ignorant thing to do. AKP and Erdoğan got very lucky with the timing, and I strongly believe that any other party could have done a similar, and even better, job in terms of economic indicators.

"because on browsers you're definitely going to want to persist the token in a cookie so the user can have access in between requests."

You'd usually just use localStorage for this purpose, not cookies.

For your second point, you can store the info you need in the token itself, which is then signed so it can't be tampered with. Though yeh, sometimes, you just need the latest info in the DB. Depends on the use case.

> Same goes for public service, profit-focused corporations can't provide the same quality of service.

This is just categorically false. Where I live our state owned telco is horrible and you have to jump through hoops to cancel your account with them. People have to keep paying them for literally months (sometimes more than 6) after they cancel their service with them to cancel as they just do not process cancellations and then sue you if you do not pay up.

Our fiber revolution was driven not by the state, but by private profit-focused corporations. In fact the state telco now also has fiber - but it costs about twice the price and then you still have to deal with a provider which is sub standard and makes it near impossible for you to cancel their service. I pay about $10 USD more a month for 100mbit/100mbit up/down FTTH than I payed for 4mbit/512k ADSL up/down from state telco.

With just about every other "utility" or "public service" the story is the same here. Police is shit so I have to pay for security if you don't want to get armed robbed raped or murdered, schools are shit so you have to pay for private schools if you want your child to be able to read and write. Electricity supply is shit - every year we have load shedding and prices keep going up while govt is lining their pockets and then looking for ways to further fuck rate payers while getting kickbacks from Russia. And now because the govt has made everything worse for years there is talk about nationalizing industries to fuel populism amongst the almost 30% (official) unemployed and many poor people as our economy has been shrinking for years (and of course this is capitalism's fault now - because private industry makes govt look bad in comparison).

It is theoretically possible to have decent services where there is no competition and govt monopoly - but it is not the norm and I would say in most cases it does not work out this way.
Yes, because in German:

Wer: Who
Wen/Wem: Whom

But the 1st is the direct object, the 2nd is the indirect object, so "Whom do you trust" would be the 1st case, "to whom" would (in the literal sense) be the 2nd, and "For whom the bell tolls" is "Wem die Stunde schlägt"

Christianity's solution has been to no longer treat the bible literally.

There is a verse in the Bible that tells you to kill your children if they are disrespectful ("For anyone who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death; he has cursed his father or his mother; his blood is upon him. ").
Noone gives a damn any more. Perhaps it will be the same for the interpretation of Islam at some point in the future. Otherwise the culture clash will not disappear.

As I stated, some children react differently. An example is with Benadryl. Some children get a lot of energy and have an opposite effect.

With stimulants, I'm not sure if it's some or all children, however, my point was to apply a bit of skepticism towards trying medicine out on yourself as a filter for its efficacy on your child.

Edit: Here is a link for an example. It may actually be stating that stimulants in children do not have a paradoxical effect. I'm too uninterested to research this, but would be interested in a professional's opinion.

Time-Locked Wallets: An Introduction to Ethereum Smart Contracts
The majority of jailed journalist are there under anti terrorn laws regarding the PKK. While its not something I support, you have to compare today’s Turkey with yesterday’s Turkey and not with today’s Sweden.

It was a crime to even claim to be Kurdish in the past. Elected mayors were jailed simply for saying they were ethnic kurds. Wearing a headscarf was illegal in schools, courts, etc. Even an AKP president’s wife was stopped from wearing a headacarf in a public hospital while visiting a wounded soldier!

In a way, I guess its a sign of Turkey and AKP’s success that we are now being held to European standards. There are 100 journalists in jail currently. Previous adminsitrations would have simply sent the government deatb squad to their doors and ended the matter rather more swiftly rather than subject itself to such Western critism over public statistics.
I remember having a chat with a small guesthouse owner a few years ago, he showed me what the OTA sent through to them which was clear copy text of the booking along with all the credit card details. The big online OTA would directly charge the customer 15% deposit if I remember correctly which they banked as their commission - kind of clever removing the big remittance headache. It was then down the hotel to directly capture the remaining balance and enforce the cancellation rules. He explained that if customers don't turn up he takes the credit card details down to the road to a small independent unrelated travel agency which attempts to hit the card and charges him 10% for privilege, he says it's about 50/50 weather the card authorizes. I think this still happens.
He also mentioned that he gets a TV package.

Are you actually serious? I live in the Luberon, not far from Avignon and Apt and our internet speeds are 0.8 mbs up and 8 mbs down. So 800 KILObytes up. And that’s for a “business” connection! That’s thanks to Orange’s practical monopoly out where I live. I get to pay over €100 per month for such innovation. My total monthly bill with two cell phones and internet is €360. Which is insane — that is approaching $450 a month.

Thanks French government, you suck. I pay confiscatory taxes — including incredibly high taxes on my internet and phone service and what do I get for it? Abysmal speeds. Given the geographic size of France — it should be covered in fiber already, but my area is projected at 3 years out.

They won’t have 100% fiber by 2022. It’s impossible given the French propensity to make the simple complex, and the inexpensive, expensive. If Orange is a representation of the power of French innovation, then I fear for the future. That’s a company that has separate sign in systems based on the type of account you have and a system that takes 2 weeks to update when payments are made by credit card. Orange represents the single worst experience I have ever had as a customer — that includes my time living in the US and dealing with companies such as Time Warner. The French electric service, EDF, is a close second.

You want to talk about government and successful internet infrastructure initiatives — have a look at South Korea.

But France? Innovative? It’s all for show. It still is a pain in the ass to accomplish anything in that country. Europe uses IBANs almost universally, for example, yet French utilities still insist on the RIB. The insurance company I have can’t do prelevements with my German IBAN. It’s ridiculous.

Just because a government spends money on something doesn’t mean that government is any good at what they’re spending money on.
The Bible was retranslated in 1611 (for example), and is regularly. It's not rewritten. New finds of historical texts show this to be true.

Some versions (ie translations) are presented with a political end, but they're relatively easily weeded out.

Translations tend to sit on a range from translating the idea to translating the specific words - that's why every Christian I know uses different versions, concordances, Bible dictionaries etc..

There are overarching themes that are not in dispute in these religious texts.

I thought .NET isn't that bad especially with LINQ. In what way is Java better?
A lot of the argument would apply to normal network TV too - that it is basically a waste of time. Well maybe, but at least when I watch Netflix I'm watching something I've read reviews of and have a good idea if I'd like it. When I'm visiting my father he just channel surfs watching five minutes of this and five minutes of that because he is looking for something interesting and not finding anything - that seems far worse of a waste of time.
N3DS face tracking is only used to correct the stereo separation (so each eye sees a separate image without having to be exactly on the center), not to move the scene depending on where you are. So if you have a scene like in that experiment, you would see it skew to the opposite direction you move your head. Also the vast majority of games don't have that much depth anyway, even at the highest setting, probably because the scene doesn't move accordingly and would make people dizzy.
Currently not, large part of why I have a smartphone is to not carry a bag full of different devices.

If he was 20 in the war, he could have been 65 in the late 80s. (Yes, it's true that not everyone lives that long, but it's on the short side.)

"late 80s" there would be more likely to refer to "in the years 1987-1989 or so" than to "at an age of 87-89".
And where are you living? This sounds a lot like being due a high level of corruption. I think that's one challenge to overcome, you're right that public services are not automatically better

As an anecdote, I was born and raised in Iowa. My dad was on the board of a a non-profit which primarily operated out of the DC suburbs. As the only person from the Midwest on the board, he floated the idea of moving operations to Iowa. Everyone thought he was stupid to suggest such a thing. "Could we even find qualified people to hire in the Midwest?"

They weren't doing any lobbying or hosting events, it was effectively just an administrative office. They moved to Iowa, paid a small fraction in rent, got more space, could afford to pay a similar wage giving the employees much more disposable income, and hired another person (I believe going from 3 to 4 employees).
Thanks. That's the next step. This "Show" was just to gauge interest before building anything (as our implementation requires actually setting up logistics).
