There was no DOM back in the early days of Javascript. The page was rendered in a single pass, you could inject text and markup via document.write() and anything "dynamic" was accomplished by reloading an IFRAME. Remember, these were the days when too many tables would crash your browser; I recall the early demos of Gecko showing deeply nested tables, and all styling was with font tags still.

Netscape was still trying to sell a browser, and they wanted a common language on the frontend and backend, so Javascript was also on Netscape Server.
The point I'm trying to make is that blaming all of these shootings on mental illness is completely baseless. All it does is further stigmatize mental illness, and it does so by conflating people that, in all honesty, are just terrible, terrible people, with people who have mental illness. Combining that scapegoat with the fact that we, as a country, do absolutely nothing to treat mental illness, just makes life worse for those who actually do have mental illness.

I was pretty regularly hitting the $80 cap until I switched to Cricket for their $40 unlimited deal.

If they're literally charging double compared to the domestic competition, it's pretty outrageous.
Perhaps. However, Microsoft has published very clear guidance on how long previous versions of Windows would receive support for, specifically including the period for security updates. Doing what you're describing is effectively reneging on that deal, and that sends a very different kind of message.

I've used TMobile One in Turkey, India, Armenia, Canada, and UK. And it auto connects to Mexico when I'm nearby too, all for free. Best I could ever ask from a carrier. I'm pretty anxious they're going to get bought out and cut this immediately.

That said, getting a local sim in foreign countries is nice but sometimes takes an annoying amount of work and passport scans.
Interesting that there are no News related domains in the list. I wounder if that is due to the number of posts those domains have that never gain any traction.

Neighborhood association covenants actually do regulate a lot of those things especially chickens and other livestock. It seems that more are relenting to allowing people to keep a few chickens, but certainly goats, pigs and other farm animals are out of the question. Pools, lawns and landscaping are often subject to rules as well.
I worked at a small Beltway Bandit-style federal contracting firm. The CEO bragged to me that he was the Democrat and his wife was the Republican in their relationship. His wife gave to Republican candidates. He gave to Democrat candidates. Through their duplicitous actions they could be assured they always had a seat at the table, but had plausible deniability that they were apolitical mercenaries just buying a seat at the table. My point, money is what most of these politicians actually care about.

> I'm on the verge of deleting my Facebook account, but for the same reasons as given by OP i'm hesitant.

I'm in the same boat. Here's a suggestion:

1) Keep your Facebook account.

2) Uninstall all their apps.

3) Replace your profile pic and cover photo with big banners saying you're no longer using Facebook and encouraging others to contact you elsewhere. The text should be big enough it's still readable which your pic is the smallest size.

4) Hide or delete all of your posts, photos, and likes.

5) Make a few posts over a period of time letting people know you're leaving.

6) Specifically contact your closest friends and ask them to keep you in the loop.

7) Bonus points: like random things that are uncharacteristic of you and upload and tag yourself in stock photos (e.g. from https://www.shutterstock.com/). I made all the poison data private to keep from annoying anyone.

This is what I did. I'm no longer on Facebook, but my profile is still up as a reminder to friends. If they're organizing an event, they have a reminder to message me outside of Facebook, and if they don't, I still get the notification.

Just be warned. Facebook will act like a needy ex for awhile, trying to get you back. You just have to unsubscribe from the needy notifications.
It's great that we're talking about prison. If you're a black man, you are seven times more likely to be incarcerated then a white man. Five times more likely to be arrested for drug possession, despite similar rates of drug use. 30% more likely to be jailed before your trial. 150% more likely to be searched at a traffic stop.

Since you're placing so much emphasis on prison, as worse then any of the things I listed, it sounds like you you should agree that white privilege is a huge problem.

But let's take a step back. Since I'm a white man, my odds of being incarcerated are ~1/100. Small chance of that. If I were a woman, however, I'd be dealing with the problems I listed in my previous post all the time.

Read my posts. Nowhere did I ignore that inequalities in both directions exist. What I take issue with is people blowing the inequalities that disadvantage white men out of proportion. Almost all the gender-particular problems they have, men of color have, with a second and third helping.

> how different is mental manipulation compared to physical manipulation as commonly seen with dictatorship?

While I think propaganda is a serious problem, all you need to do is look at the raging debate and issues being raised to see the difference between an open society and a dictatorship. Nobody said democracies and open societies don't have serious problems.
What I find odd is how does a car with 400PS and almost 700NM of torque max out at 124mph? In comparison a Jaguar F-Pace 3.0, which has 375PS and 430NM torque will max out at (limited) top speed of 155MPH.

The iPace weights just 300KG more than the F-Pace, so it’s not down to extra weight alone.

> California remains the center because the companies are already headquartered there due to decisions made 50 years ago by the military for radar technology:

Poor argument. It doesn't explain why the auto industry didn't hire all the self driving car engineers to work in the Midwest or why the communications companies didn't hire them all to work on the East Coast. Google itself has offices all over the world, but it put the Chauffeur team in Mountain View. If you really think that the military industrial complex that started Silicon Valley gives it an insurmountable advantage for building a self driving car company, Arizona's decision to even try to pull them away looks even more stupid.

> Oh, red carpet for bad actors? Where is it that Uber is headquartered again?

In California, which reaps all the benefits from taxing its highly paid employees without incurring any of the costs of its out-of-control self driving car program, which Arizona's governor welcomed with much fanfare.

> And doesn't Waymo also test in Arizona?

It does. It also tests extensively in California and has engineered its vehicles to comply with the new California regulations that allow cars on public roads that have no human driver inside. Notably, all the highly paid engineers remain in California, and the advanced testing facility with highly paid testers (unlike the temp workers hired for the public road tests) was built in California too because advanced testing on private facilities is correctly less regulated. Arizona's problem is that it underregulated testing on public roads.

I didn't even remotely suggest that, I said the opposite. That the real solution is to get the countries on their feet so they can run things themselves, be their own people and control their own resources. Then they can control their pollution and human rights.

Until a country can stand on it's own two feet, it will be a pawn between global power brokers.

Google asks devs how much an app costs to install not to use.

Even if the app has IAP the value gets rendered as “Free” with an additional notice.

On that note Google will also take down your app if it doesn’t have a comprehensive privacy policy. And it also requires that policy to be accessible without installing.

They’ve been cracking down on things as detailed as “leaking” clicked URL in troubleshooting logs.

I’m not here to astroturf for companies abusing jargon filled pages of legalese to get you to sign over rights to your data, but you don’t even need to read those to know: “If you’re not paying, you’re the product”. Doubly so if you’re using a service valued at billions of dollars.

Your original post was about IBM not being able to copyright the PC Bios. Which is simply not true in any way shape or form.

No, no, no, that is not what I said. I was talking about the API of the BIOS. The BIOS source code is, of course, copyrightable. That is why IBM was able to make it very hard for people to copy it until folks did a proper clean room. Why would I go into detail about the counter measure if it was not copyrightable? That makes no sense.
> I don't know why people recommend GIMP instead of Pinta or more usable software, honestly.

Try adding a text line, then editing it. See if you still want to recommend Pinta.

I absolutely love the idea of having a simple image editor for users who don't need most GIMP features. Pinta devs got quite a few things right, but it needs SO much more work...
Ah, yes, thank you. I was thinking about the far side of the bell curve after most of the easy gains have been made and bureaucracy sets in.
Parts of the memory management code were rewritten for windows 10 to do fun things like randomize the location of the page tables.

That sounds like a dream for me! As a Canadian who spends a
lot of time on the road it’s not uncommon to see $200-400 phone bills at the end of the month. Getting a local SIM isn’t really an option because having my normal phone number is important. If there was something like Fi I could have some consistency and a lot of savings!
Agreed. Nobody in my office is having issues, but I know one guy whose cowork space is full of pop-ups on their computers, complaining over and over again about not being able to access iTunes or something -- when they're not actively trying to use any service. I'm guessing maybe that cowork space NATs out as the same IP which is why all workers in one office would have issues but I haven't heard of these issues in my own office or other friends' workplaces.

Hopefully this fiasco teaches them a little about being less obtrusive with such messages. In the past, it likely could be chalked up to a user misconfiguration, so they can blame a PEBKAC issue and push it on the user. When the failure is on Apple's end, and it affects many users at once, they'll hear pretty loud and clear that these need to go away.
Then if China owns it's businesses, then my point stands. China uses their laws to allow their businesses to have advantages that other countries (where the businesses are privately owned) can never have.
Within the EU, yea. The amazing thing about Fi is that it operates the same in pretty much any country with a stable government.
Surely that is because cities are diverse and multicultural, something that the GOP has been trying to cast as a negative since at least Reagan.
Now, I totally agree with your comment that other states can let Arizona do the testing then reap the rewards. But at the same time, I think there can be other indirect benefits: Arizona getting known for being innovative, for example. Arizona was getting in the news a lot for positive self-driving tech things, and that's great. It's bad that they didn't vet Uber carefully enough and thus a woman died, but the general attitude of encouraging innovation even without direct, immediate benefits is a great thing.
Yes, but with a small enough number you might be able to find that people with blue eyes are paid more than people with brown eyes. You'd expect some level of random variation and such a small number makes it seem that it may really not have anything to do with their gender.

Think of it this way. If you flipped a coin a large number of times and 51% of the times it came up heads would you assume the coin was biased or would you suspect that it could just be random variation?
Canadian Startup VueReal Takes on Apple in MicroLED Displays
If you do non-registration rate limiting on an api, then you still need some identifier to calculate api usage; its not hard to find an identifier for a single machine (ie IP address, which isn't actually but close enough),

But without registration, theres no way I can think of to associate multiple machines with a single person.

And presumably if you're rate-limiting on individual users of the api (and not the total usage across all users), then you're trying to maximize the number of users accessing the api simultaneously (ie you don't want 1 user maxing out resources, denying all other users).

But with things like cloud computing, its trivial for a single user to have an absurd number of machines (legally). AWS charges on compute-hour, not number of machines. Running 1 instance for 50 hours and 50 instances for 1 hour has the same cost.

But for the server, that difference is significant; you apply rate limiting because you don't want to be hammered for a short duration followed by nothing, at least not from one user.

Registration can also be bypassed somewhat trivially (temporary emails and aliases), but its a good deal more effort than bypassing non-registration rate limiting. And presumably most people who want to scrape a dataset large enough to bother bypassing the limiter are nautrally, by their job, aware of what I've described. Bypassing registration takes a good deal more work, and more specific tooling

So tl;dr

Rate limiting by ip only affects 1 machine, but not necessarily 1 user

Rate limiting by registration affects n machines, with 1 user

Before cloud vps, 1 machine basically correlated to 1 user. Now its trivial for n machines to correlate to 1 user.

You don't get to live under daddy's roof unless you're following his rules. If you rise into the same industry as your father, with your career-minded father guiding you along the way, you're not off scot-free when you've "paid your dues." You can take the entire Trump lineage for a very notable and public example. Trump Sr. held Trump Jr. under his thumb, Trump Jr. holds Ivanka et al. under his thumb.

As long as the person that helped you get to where you are today is still in "power," you're indebted until he loses his throne.

Hollywood is another example.
The ease with T Mobile is there too. I pay $50/month for my plan, and calls, text, and data effectively works seamlessly in ~160 countries. If I want faster data in some of those countries, I can pay $10 extra.

Google Fi is $20/month for voice and text, plus a variable $10/month per GB up to 6GB where it caps out at $80/month.

Note that I'm not arguing against you, just wanted to clarify that the t mobile experience is just as seamless as Fi, in case I overcomplicated it.

T-Mobile even supports WiFi calling in the same way as Fi, if you want to enable it (handy for me at work, where I'm in a building built like a bunker that gets close to no reception on any network).

Thus if there is a niche use for some material, and that something is very cheap, but that niche use itself is profitable, then that industry somehow ensures that it has enough of the material just for itself. Maybe by owning the production chains of that material; those units don't have to stand alone as profitable. Outsiders can't easily get the stuff, though. If the stuff becomes independently profitable, then the availability follows.
All but a very small number of those teams would have spent quite a while reading manuals, reading code, and learning how the kernel entry code and pagetable handling code worked. Then they'd come up with something, but there would be a severe shortage of reviewers.
