In India kids use pencil up to
4th standard. From 5th standard onward they start using pens. Buying a fountain pen and inkpot used to be a big thing back in the day. I still remember my first fountain pen. My mother purchased it for me in 1987. It used to be sort of rite of passage. We did not have gel pens in India back the. Using ball pen was strictly forbidden. The reason given was that writing with fountain pen improves handwriting.
These days kids use gel pen as their first pen. Usage of fountain pens in India is dying at least in bigger cities.

To your second point, that’s not exactly what happened. 128-bit encryption wasn’t outlawed, it was just illegal to export (the more useless 40-bit encryption was fine). There were various ways of working around this export ban before 2000 when it was rescinded (for most countries).

I like all of them, but I always had problems with fountain pens:

-Ink not coming out for the few centimetres of writing.

-Ink not coming out if I leave the pen for a few days without using.

-Having to refill if left unused for even longer.

-Leaky tips, dirtying the hand.

-Tips easily broken in a drop.

Somehow I always don't get the instant ink, no matter what pen or ink I use. This is the number one reason I kept giving up.

I think it's a very analogous situation with wealth, actually. "More money won't make you a better person," but if you're broke and desperate you're more likely to do something shifty to survive. Likewise, being physically healthy and getting enough sleep won't "make you a better person" but if you're sick and chronically sleep-deprived it sure can make you behave like a prick.
Yes, which is how it should be.

this also turned me off. It's backed by a for-profit company which can be sold/acquired anytime. If we have learned anything from DigiNotar, Startcom, etc? Trust is a dangerous commodity to have changing hands.

Anyway scrolling down to the bottom¹ they seem to be resellers for DigiCert/Symantec certificates. So based on their strategy to fish for users with free certificates, I'd strongly question both their motives and their track record with handling the technical requirements for operating a CA. If they are a serious actor in this space then they should at the very least have either ETSI TSP² or WebTrust³ certifications to meet the security/trust requirements for operating a CA. Judging from the info on this site, I doubt they do.

Seriously? As a Japanese, I can't agree any of the auther's claim.

First, It's less than 20 years old for a crime to be punished differently than adults in Japan. Not 21 years. An article containing this level of mistake cannot trusted further.

It said, Japanese biker gang can get a gun but not doing so because of honor, “Being able to move your finger on a trigger is not really a skill that wows anyone.” What?

It costs a fortune(and you have to deal with bad guys) to illegally acquire the shitty hand gun that was so poorly manufactured and cannot be trusted.

And each live rounds cost a fortune too.

As an "infrequent developer", I usually piggyback on others to find best practices, in case I have a bigger project. For the tiny ones it simply doesn't matter.

The advantages of being an "infrequent developer" is that you grow an intuition on how to get started with something completely new (cfr. Taleb's anti-fragile), and that you learn a lot from cross-contamination.

Also, others might refer to frequent/infrequent developers as specialists and generalists.

Makes it harder for my wife to introduce her to new things, if I used a whitelist she would have to pester me any time she wants to get her onto a new site and then there’s the PITA of dealing with CDN’s and other third party sources that can change on a whim.

Whitelist would be safer, but it’s not worth the headache - we use blacklisting to try and prevent accidents for brief periods when we can’t supervise her access instead of falsely thinking it eliminates the need for supervision entirely.

Regardless, still need TLS inspection either way - even pbskids.org is served over HTTPS these days.

Apparently they already can. If there is no enforcement, what prevents anybody from doing it ? Good will.

Remove "should" and "to oblivion", and the result seems reasonable. After all, we can't give tickets like for speeding for those infraction. The only problem with sueing here is the cost of it.

But it's perfectly alright from a moral point of view. People worked hard, sometimes for free, for free software to exist, out of idealism. The only thing they demand is to accept the licence.

Very interesting. In a way, what you describe is the story-telling technique in media res - start in the middle of things - used by Homer and many after him, and probably a few before: Start with where they are now (e.g., in the coal mine), then go back to their backstory, how they got there, then forward to their future.

It's a bit different for biography, but why not?
You are not going to be able to put this nuance in a tweet, but the major problem with estimating the heritability of phycological factors is the error bars are massive. You can’t even get near the same results when you measure the same person on different days.

While there is obviously a non-shared environmental component, it is really noise. The only factors that people care about are the factors that can be studied; shared environment (that is all the environmental factors that can in theory be measured) and genes. Non-shared environment is just what is left over once you account for measurable environmental factors and genes.
Define "gently", because that doesn't seems like a term that goes well with enforcement, which contains the root "force".
It’s not only the ECB and it wouldn’t be at no cost, insofar as quantitative easing (which I think you’re referring to) would cause inflation which in turn would diminish the real value (in terms of future purchasing potential) of creditors and consequentially would be unpalatable to creditor nations (such as the much-maligned Germany, for example).
Like many features of the original constitution, protecting slavery (the slave states were modtly low population states, with even smaller voting populations, and were particularly concerned that equal representation would eventually turn against them—abolitionism was already a thing at the time of the Constitution, and they were very concerned about it taking hold) was a major concern. The representation structure (and it's special protection against revision by amendment) plus the 3/5 compromise plus the explicit, limit term, protection of the slave trade, among other provisions of the Constitution, were protection against that eventuality.

The article's conclusion -- that Lambda is cheaper than EC2 instances for this use case -- is completely wrong. The author only counted the per-request overhead, and neglected to add the actual cost of the GB-hours consumed. If each container uses 512MB of memory, then keeping one request running at a time for an entire month costs about $22. For comparison, a t2.nano instance with the same amount of memory costs $4/month.

Lambda is a value-added service on top of EC2. It only makes financial sense to use it when you don't want something running constantly, or otherwise have a way to take advantage of the extremely fine granularity in billing.

I've been remembering a lot of my childhood lately. Perhaps it's due to recently adding DHEA to my supplement stack, though not exactly sure what the cause is, but it feels good and sad at the same time.

I've wasted a lot of my life due to reasons both within and out of my control.

In any case, one memory that came to mind recently was the ponzi scheme I tried starting around 4th grade -- I think it was? -- when playing around with Print Master Deluxe's fun "ye olde" paper background template. I called it "Joe's Money Club". The point of the club was that people would join and pay dues on a certain schedule, and we'd use those funds to try to make money. I'm joking partly about it being a ponzi scheme ... I think; the story is more fun if I play it up that way, but as I think about it, I don't think it was technically a ponzi scheme, because I do remember trying to sell ear plugs (my dad worked in a factory and had a ton of these packs of orange ear plug pairs). In any case, the club disbanded around a week later due to lack of interest, and I tried to give the money back from dues, but everyone just let me keep it.

Idea of GPL is that developers are also users from someone's else work, and everyone on the chain is entitled to get the source code.

If you prefer to give the work for free, without strings attached, then don't complain companies are evil and such.

People bash GPL, but had Linux and GNU did not exist, and most likely everyone would still be using Solaris, Aix, HP-UX, DG/UX, Irix, Tru64,....

I have my doubts the BSDs would have had the same industry adoption.
Good point.

But, most of the post was meant as joke to see what I could push lambda to do.

This is absolutely correct and should not have been downvoted.

It is the abuse of a position of trust that aggravates this crime relative to that of a simple outlaw street dealer.

Commenters who are concerned with the effect on the convict's reputation and future employability are simply not in touch with reality....this was a grave breach of the basic ethics of the medical profession and seriously harmed the innocent patients involved. There is no return to work after something like this...any more than with a scientist who falsifies data, a teacher who sleeps with minor students, a lawyer who steals from escrow, etc.

I find it highly disturbing that there is more discussion in this thread as to the effect on the doctor's return on investment from his medical degree rather than on the individuals who bodies were damaged by someone they were supposed to be able to trust.

If the companies being targeted hadn't violated the GPL, they wouldn't be subject to lawsuits like these.

So this is "another reason" not to violate the GPL. It doesn't affect compliant GPL users.

> I thought the whole idea of open source was to avoid litigious assholes.

It sounds as though you're anti-GPL, so perhaps in this case the distinction between "open source" and GPL-style "free software" is relevant.

The GPL imposes a significant requirement on users, which is that if you make changes to GPL software and distribute that software, you must make the source code to those changes available. This has nothing to do with "avoiding litigious assholes", so your assessment of the "whole idea" is not accurate when it comes to GPL software.

I find them in recipes fairly often[1], and make tapenade sometimes, but they're actually pretty easy to work into many of the meat or fish recipes that I make[2], as long as the flavors are complementary. Hell, even my first regular,
staple "recipe" when I started learning to cook had olives in it and was super easy: a 3-egg scramble with chili powder, smoked paprika, baby spinach, quartered black olives and optionally a little bit of crumbled feta. Super fast, super easy, super delicious, and it came from just looking at my spice rack plus deciding that I wanted some Mediterranean flavors in my eggs.

This is probably made a lot easier by the fact that the cuisines I decided to focus on when I had to narrow it down for cooking were Mediterranean (excl Italy) + Middle Eastern + North Indian, and most of the Mediterranean makes regular use of olives.

Thanks; that's very informative.

> The goal of Community-Oriented Enforcement is compliance, not punishment.

Is there some record of the debate, if any, that led to this policy? Clearly, financial costs are a deterrent that leads to compliance. Many laws, regulations, and contracts achieve compliance in this manner. That doesn't make the FSF's position wrong, but I wonder how they reached it.

The FSF agrees, to an extent: https://www.fsf.org/licensing/enforcement-principles

Community-oriented enforcement must never prioritize financial gain. Financial penalties are a legitimate tool to achieve compliance when used judiciously. Logically, if the only penalty for violation is simply compliance with the original rules, bad actors will just wait for an enforcement action before even reading the GPL. That social model for copyleft and its enforcement is untenable and unsustainable. An enforcement system without a financial penalty favors bad actors over good ones, since the latter bear the minimal (but non-trivial) staffing cost of compliant distribution while the former avoid it ...
