There is law that TV licensing get told your address every time a TV is sold[0], which Argos etc will also do. That is entirely separate from NMPR and CheckMend, which I hadn't heard of before. So seems to be an Amazon initiative.

Is that a CAP joke or what?
Same. Aside from some very primitive BASIC, at about 9 or 10 this was my first experience with programming. And yes, it counts as programming.

Hypercard hints at the kind of elegance that's possible when there isn't such a strict divide between the computer programmer and the computer user. We live in a world that went the complete opposite direction from this. So instead of being able to copy and paste the Bold button from Word and use it anywhere else in my system, or — gasp! — alt-click on it to change what it does, I have to learn a full programming stack to add new features to my own computer.

As an engineer I always use a library, or set up systems on Arizona time so I don't have to deal with it.

My point is, that part of python is IMO a bit ugly. Not due to naming, but because these are exceptions. A type system with good use of optionals across the standard lib is certainly more elegant than ValueError.

Ok, we've replaced the title above with a roadworthy sentence from the article.
The market cap means exactly nothing in the case of tokens.

Anyone can create the gazillion coin, give some to small exchange to list it, make few transactions between 2 wallets and you'll have a "market cap" for all tokens in the gazillions...

But just try to sell let's say 5% of all bitcoins and see what the "real" price is going to be relative to the "market cap"
> Also, if you have a bunch of `mod.rs` files open in your editor, you have no idea what module they corresponds to, as they all say `mod.rs`. Now they'll say the file name instead.

Sure. Pretty much all of Pinker's books' reviews, written by better-educated people who've actually bothered reading what he so gleefully critiques. Here's a selection:

https://www.firstthings.com/article/2012/01/the-precious-ste...

https://www.theguardian.com/books/2018/feb/14/enlightenment-...

https://www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/magazine/john-gray-steven...

https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2002/11/25/what-comes-nat...

Also, I had the dubious pleasure of attending one of Pinker's talks. Let's just say that him coming off as unintelligent is an understatement. He seemed to be both completely unfamiliar with the very subject he had written about as well as incapable of forming any kind of interesting or novel insight about it. He just paraphrases well-worn anti-intellectual sentiments using what appears to the untrained ear as intellectual jargon. His audience in that particular talk happened to be mostly university professors, all of whom did their best not to laugh, as he was clearly the least-informed person in the quite-large room about the very subject on which he'd written a best-selling book!

My insults about this joke-of-an-intellectual are a much-watered-down version of how he's perceived by people who actually know the subject matter. Of course, these are the very people he critiques for this very reason. He can present them as his "opponents" and thus discard their actually-informed criticism as ideological opposition, saving him the trouble of actually studying the material.

I'm amazed if anyone working in a computer security role doesn't know about SQL injection attacks and their mitigations. You'll be telling me they don't know about salting passwords next??
Ok, great. Where can I view the list of providers? It's mentioned in the FAQ but I was not able to see it on the homepage.

Yes they are. That's exactly two of their purpose.

You'd be amazed what an automatic scanner and a manual edit of the service url "/log?name=/etc/password" can uncover.
Some tips:

- Don't pick now to use a weird language. Use whatever you are most confident with.

- Get it working, then do conscientious things (add tests, add documentation).

- Clarify as much as possible up front what they want from you.

Good luck!
I think it is highly likely that individual politicians accept lobby money from the private prison industry, which influences their votes on any issue impacting this "paying for their interests" constituent. Just repeat this, not very many times, and the nation's voting balance sways in their direction. Realize that each politician has a net of obligations, and by directly impacting a few's behavior, many other politicians are swayed due to their obligations towards their peers accepting lobby incentives. Speaking from experience, I worked very effectively as a lobbyist, until my ethics would not longer allow it.
For the curious here is how it works (this is all setup for you automatically when you type lambdaphp deploy):

- Your requests are sent to Amazon API Gateway

- AWS API Gateway invokes the Lambda function (pretty standard stuff)

- There is a NodeJS server running on Lambda that accepts incoming connections

- If the request is for a static file, it just serves it directly.

- If it is a php file, it sets up the environment vars ($_GET, $_POST, etc) and loads php-cgi and pipes the request to that and captures the output

- There is a wrapper script in between that creates a File IO wrapper to intercept any file IO and writes them to S3

- Similarly there is another wrapper to intercept requests to $_SESSION that are written to dynamodb

- It also loads the composer autoloader so it is possible to load any modules from the vendor directory
This whole piece reads like it's written by someone who has never set foot in an actual, general-population prison.

The scene it sets is of a collegial environment of highly motivated people who yearn to learn, and would commit themselves to pursuing a college degree, but for lack of access.

In reality, a large swath of the incarcerated population is not motivated to pursue additional education, or really any program that might help them get their lives back on track.

Part of it is because they frequently have underlying mental-health problems, addictions, learning disorders, or intellectual disabilities that often go undiagnosed or untreated in prison, and that must be addressed before they can get clear-headed enough to pursue their GED, let alone a college degree. Or they see a high-school or college diploma as pointless, either because they know the deck's stacked against them, or they don't know any other way of living.

So, it may be completely true that higher education is correlated with lower rates of recidivism, but that doesn't mean that increasing access to education _causes_ lower recidivism.

Rather, it likely means that people who are able and motivated to pursue higher education have lower rates and lower severities of mental-health issues or learning disorders, and a lack of those underlying issues predicts lower recidivism.
Were this a civil case for damages, that would be more relevant. The criminality of getting other people to give up their property with false representations is not eliminated by paying them back plus extra later, however.

Civil damages mostly addresses the harm caused, criminal punishment is less about the harm caused by a particular act and more about the risk to society of normalizing the behavior.

> isn't any more secure

It's definitely more secure. But depending on your level of paranoia, yeah, it's often not enough.

Doing things in the browser shows customers that it's done properly and verifiably. It also makes attack way more public than being able to do it quietly server-side. I wish people applied security client-side more often.

I mean, if the server is compromised, you're fucked, regardless of whether you applied your crypto in js or on the server. But if it is done client-side, at least there's a chance that you notice you're fucked.

Depending on the geography class you took, and where, there might not be a "South America". Some countries just call the whole continent America:

Most North Americans are taught that there are 7 continents: Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, Europe and Australia/Oceania. In some textbooks, North and South America are combined into "America" and/or Europe and Asia are combined into "Eurasia", for a grant total of 6 or even 5.

I do not approve of your 7-continent view of the World, as if it was the only one.

If you're actually interested in seeing what experiments have been done and what the results are, this [1] lengthy but also plain english study provides an excellent overview of some 30 years of research results and what has been discovered. It goes over common misconceptions and arguments in quite extensive detail.

IQ is dominantly heritable. The consensus on heritability (that is the percent of deviation that's explained by genetics alone) has been increasing over time. It used to be believed to be 'only' around ~60% whereas more recent results have shown it to be upwards of 80%. There are lots of strange things about IQ that can lead to poor measurement, like the fact that environmental roles can play some in young children, yet play a negligible role for people as early as adolescence. Anyhow, that paper again provides a great overview of all the issues here. If you're not up for it, Wiki has a page on it [2]. But I'm already cringing there. On the first page, I noticed some editor apparently and literally thinks regression to the mean means two people with high IQ are more likely to produce children of average IQ... Wiki has gotten really quite awful, but I digress!

I'm unsure what you think you're referencing with the "Asian diaspora" or twin study data. Twin study data is conclusive on this topic. I could spam you with sources here, but seriously just searching (google scholar is a useful tool) for iq twin study will lead to a very one-sided picture. If you can provide some papers on the "Asian diaspora" that'd be appreciated, though.

Hm, I have worldwide (except US) medical insurance for 60euro/month. Your product seems just like regular travel insurance (evacuation only, no actual medical cover). Not sure what it offers compared to my insurance.

So I want:

- table that compares your insurance to alternatives

- clarify "evacuation", many nomads do not have a regular home.

- short extract from terms and conditions (maximal coverage, co-payment, etc...). Web is very vague...

- fix your terms & conditions, it is branded to other company.....

I've worked with chickens for years. Among lay people, being able to correctly sex a chicken after 2-3 weeks is a difficult skill.

It's incredibly interesting that these people are able to do it so easily at such an early age. It's also put to very disturbing uses. The females go on to be used as layer hens and the males are kill within hours of hatching - generally in gruesome/painful ways.
If I push my wife off a cliff for life insurance but she falls onto and kills a terrorist or school shooter does that lessen my crime? Does it even change the nature of my crime? No so it shouldn't enter in.

I initially did not agree with you, then re-read your posts several time, and have come to the conclusion you are absolutely right. Cornering a drug and hiking the price simply for profit and no other legitimate reason (supply chain issue, newer/more effective version, etc...) should be illegal. It is a crime, maybe not in the letter of the law, but ethically, it's a crime.
Well, right. So we're back to the starting proposition: That you shouldn't write a TL;DR if you didn't read the article.
