To the extent society needs education as civic socialization, it seems like it should be done at the pre-college level.

In the US today, it is happening neither in high school nor in college (at least for most people at most high schools and colleges). The former is mostly about keeping youth supervised while parents work and enabling sufficient standardized test scores to get into college; the latter about getting the piece of paper that allows you to get a livable-wage job.
no you're right, I was just not willing to swap the disks
They took risks with Windows 8 and I give them credit for that, but yeah, I'm glad they changed course because it wasn't working.
Ignoring the fact that there are far more than left/right in the real world, I take issue with the equivalency you're making between Right and Left in the USA. While both sides have many pet issues and wedge issues that are divisive and bad for democracy, the right is denying scientific truth and actively contradicting its extreme budget-hawkishness under the previous president. While the left is bought quite a bit, the right is even more bought by the Kochs, big business, and wealthy donors. Look at the only accomplishment of the right coalition: a major tax cut that expires quickly for everyone except the rich, who receive a massive win in perpetuity.

If you look globally, we don't have a Right/Left in the USA, we have an EXTREME right in power and a moderate left in minority. The GOP is the only party in the world whose stance is that climate change is a hoax. We withdrew from the Paris accord while Syria and North Korea have joined it. That is despicably anti-scientific. If you compare Obama's middle of the road left-ism to Trump's extreme right stances, its quite shocking. There can be no false equivalence between the R and L in this country, one is evidently far more extreme.
On the one hand, yes I am afraid, but on the other, I am sick & tired of silence (which quickly leads into learned helplessness).

I think it's better to speak up and to face the consequences than to see (first) your country (and then the world) ruined. I am currently studying abroad in UK and even though they cannot directly harm me (though they can hurt me through my family and beloved ones living back home).

I kept thinking about the idea of settling in a nicer country, but then, I realise that people (in the West) have paid the price of their freedom (if not their wealth), and then idea of "(e|im)migrating" doesn't feel like a solution any more but postponement of the problem, whose responsibility is on my (our) shoulders and no one else's.

More than what you asked for I assume, sorry. =)
The issue for me is equality.

If women faced prison as men do, justice and prison reform would happen faster, as happened in medicine when women became doctors. If people pushing for equality in high-pay, low-injury fields also pushed for equality in low-pay, high-injury fields, they would sound more credible as desiring equality, not just to advance personal interests. We'd also likely see injury rates drop.

Let the rates of arrest, conviction, and time served reflect the rates of crimes performed. If society puts burdens on men in a sexist way that lead to them committing more crimes, then change society to stop putting those burdens on men.

If men inherently commit more crimes than women independent of social pressures, justifying different outcomes, then either say that the only difference between men and women is that men are simply worse for being criminals, or say that there may be many differences that may lead to different outcomes in other places too.

> You mean like Apple asking me to use iCloud every single time I unlock my Mac? Or every time I power on my test iOS devices?

wtf? I don't use iCloud and don't get this nag. I only get a single question when I reimage my test computers or wipe a test device, that's it.

> Windows 8.1 and 10 don't require UWP apps to be full screen.

The start menu is enough for me to permanently turn me away. Or this stupid "tile" interface. What's that crap even for?

> So you've never used Windows 10 first hand then and you're just spouting things you've read to validate your decision?

No, it's these things that I always encounter when having to fix other people's computers. Plus I do not really like that Windows 10 has un-opt-out-able telemetry (yes, you can turn it off by hacks, but every random "update" will turn it back on again).

Can you clarify what you mean by "anti-american agenda"?

Questioning authority is absolutely the most appropriate task for the free press. IMO at least this part is not "anti-american".

Let's further the discussion -- take a
look at http://lite.cnn.io/en -- there's about 40-50 stories there. Please pick the top five or ten and help illustrate which among those demonstrate the bias you refer to. Or if the problem is less widespread, please indicate which among the 40-50 there illustrate the bias.
Windows desktop was always driving demand for Windows enterprise, why else would you need exchange servers and CIFS/SMB file servers? Who would buy MS SQL server licences without the larger lock in effect? Maybe they think that the cloud has broken this dependency, but I think they are bringing ruin over the house of Redmond (in the long run)

You may not be aware of this, but typically you don’t enter a nursing home at 50. Either way, Sinclair is also well into streaming services, which you could have discovered with even a cursory glance at their Wikipedia page. Of course, a huge number of people, especially people who vote, are in that same age bracket.
If windows 10 is the end then i think It's safe to say I will never be returning to windows for as long as I can help it.

Between it's spyware and its tendency to just do things without telling you, without giving you an easy way to stop, it is just not something that feels comfortable enough to use anymore for power users.

It feels like whatever I gain in convience, is lost when trying to figure out what windows is doing with all that CPU/RAM/Network usage or how to disable some new service that I have 0 interest in.

I feel like they started gathering metrics and then had no idea how to interpret them, and the result was Windows 8. "The Start menu only gets clicked on a few times per day. That must mean no one uses it, so let's remove it". Are you kidding me? It's like they really have no clue there. Some of these things are just so blindingly obvious you are left with no words...
Isn't most corporate cable news a scripted message read from a teleprompter?
They're also the most likely candidate to pick up the pieces when iHeartRadio goes bankrupt. They're going to have the strongest propaganda outlet since the times of Hearst newspapers. This is an abject failure of the FCC.

Thank you for these links! The Scala paper especially makes it a lot easier to understand the tradeoffs in compiler design.
the abuse rate of stepchildren is something like an order of magnitude higher than of biological children, for whatever reason (correction: at least TWO orders of magnitude!)

https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-human-beast/2009...

"The Cinderella effect is well substantiated in crime data. Children growing up in step families are about 40 times as likely to be abused and 140 times as likely to be murdered as children growing up with both natural parents (murder still being a low probability)."

I'm really sorry you had to go through that. I was also physically abused by my bio mom up till about 9-10 years old (but she in turn was abused until she was 18, so she arguably reduced the snowball effect). All we can do is try to not repeat the same mistakes for our next generations. The problem is, I have temper issues to this day...
>Hey! Stop blaming other countries because your domestic system is so fucked up. That your politicians passed a 1.5 trillion dollar tax cut which will benefit mostly the wealthy, instead of increasing taxes and using them to fund education, healthcare and other social programs. There seems more than enough pie to keep everyone happy, but some Americans seem hell bent on keeping the benefits of a wealthy society away from the neediest of you.

What you said has nothing to do with whether we should be a doormat for China's unfair trade practices. If you're really concerned about the wellbeing of the poor I don't understand how, in this context, you could be more upset at American corporations than you are at Chinese corporations.

>This is a straw man argument, please don't rationalize these tariffs as something that were meant to do anything but to right an imagined wrong in the mind of an Insane POTUS who thinks the trade deficit is an indication that other countries are "cheating" the US.

I suspect you and I feel similarly about Trump. I don't have particularly strong feelings of support for these tariffs, but it's been clear to me since the 80s that we needed to fight back in the trade war China has been fighting against us since then. There aren't a lot of levers to pull here, there's tariffs, sanctions... I dunno what else. The biggest problem with these tariffs is the fact that it's unilateral. Stuff is fungible so it's stupid unless we can get the rest of the world to participate and push China to behave.
We have to assume at some time that Economics is something more people think they can easily understand but in reality they asolutely do not. Cue the "Trade deficits? Huh that sounds bad". What about trillion dollars Budget deficit? "Lower taxes oh yeah so good" <Sound of brain frying>
There are many threats to democracy, but this is not one of them.

Audience numbers for local TV news (not to mention national TV news) is shrinking across the U.S. Younger people in particular will not sit down to watch a 30 minute talking-heads newscast stuffed to the gills with car, telecom, and insurance ads.

For tech products I always presume that "pay to play" is a component of the reviews from a review source. Even if it's not explicit the large brands buy a lot of the advertising and will get some 'editorial compensation' almost certainly.

This doesn't mean the reviews are worthless though. By checking several sources of reviews for the same product type one can often get a sense of which are really the top products. After all, a review site would look pretty bad if it really promoted a dog product that no other reviewer liked. What does often get over looked though are the really good products from small suppliers.
Story time: I went to a park performance of "Drumming" (which for those who don't know the piece contains lots of subtle changes) here there was a drunk man standing in front yelling "YEEEEAAAH! WOOOOHOOO!" every time he noticed a change.

Its probable that any 'review' site that only does reviews and doesn't have any real content behind it, has some financial relationship with some of what they review. Its a common business model.
