Perhaps experience for finding dates through dating apps is similar to finding dates in night clubs.
I wonder , if percieved level of anonymity (chances are you will not run into that person in your daily life) and appearance of abundance (if this person is not ideal, we are quick to move on), makes one less accountable (hence prominence of ghosting).
Apps give perception that you get to know the person before going on a date, setting it apart from meeting a random person in a nightclub and appealing to women.
But the flip side is that those dates don't carry the same level of obligation to another human being as meeting a date though friends/school/work would have, hence carry potential for highly unpleasant experience for women.
So, perhaps it's not about elite group of men, but about level of risk taking that makes women uncomfortable.

You overestimate the image that clown has outside US. Nobody gives a fk about his emotional ego swings, everybody just patiently waits till he disappears in a same way Bush jr was perceived.

Also, you completely overestimate US president's powers - he is a bit bigger and more powerful puppet than most presidents out there, but he is still at mercy of truly powerful people in government and outside (ie Murdoch).

But consider this: what would happen to the Kim family if reunification occurred? He would have to be tried for crimes against humanity, and if he realized he was going to be sent to prison, why would he go without a fight? How could this possibly come to pass?

The only way it could happen would be if he were completely pardoned, which is logical if it benefits the greater good at no further cost, but very against human nature.

In all likelihood, by his perception, he's done nothing wrong! So...it won't be something to discuss, for him. It would be a great offense and a threat.

> As I have said it encourages additional low quality questions which is more work for the mods.

"low quality" question could just be marked as such and kept mostly unmodorated. By marking them there is also an incentive to produce "high quality" questions. You could also make badges and reputation around it so asking good questions gets more rewarding.

Also, answering those "low quality" can really help the asker to understand his problem better and improve his problem solving ability, so maybe the next time he can provide better information in his question.

If you just close the question and tell people to go away you will just scare people off (which btw also leads to a smaller number of mods)
Two wrongs don't make a right. I disagree with the heavy use of antibiotics on humans and animals alike for the same reason: Living your life knee-deep in shit and mud is the problem, and antibiotics won't solve it.

It all becomes obvious now. I told people for years that Kim Jong Un wouldn't have ever built his nuclear arsenal if the entire first world hadn't believed he was stupid. However, only recently I (and others) have been starting to think about the long term- if the two Koreas manage to build a lasting peace what does that make Kim Jong Un? Literally the greatest leader North Korea has ever had. It will also be interesting to see how far modernization goes in North Korea. Will he actually address his human rights issues or will nothing really change?

Aside, I can see Trump using this in his 2020 campaign if this plays out in an American way. Do you think this could be a platform?
You're mixing up two claims, I mostly agree with one and strongly disagree with the other.

Claim I agree is there are no (financially) large and successful software companies have been fully distributed from the ground up.

Which is very different from the claim I strongly disagree with which is: only routine, well-scoped work has been successfully carried out by offshore teams.

I DO agree that there's an advantage to on-site work.

This question is the main reason for the current development - unlike previous american presidents, Trump plays the madman very convincingly. Of course, he has to be ready to put his money where his mouth is if he wants to continue to be taken seriously.

Whilst it's true that modern chips have problems with routing clocks, that's not really a limiting factor in chip size. You split the design into clock regions and have clock crossing logic. There's obvious ways this happens - multi-core designs have different clocks for different cores for example. That's not really the limiting factor for chip size.

I've worked with the UK banks. From experience they're typically large outsourcing firms that contract their work out to the large consultancies that are more interested in appearance and winning bun fights than delivering quality.

I just left one of these orgs about a month ago where the program CTO of the bank (title inflation) wanted to hire me direct because they believe they need to have a core competency that isn't aligned with external political agendas, but largely the other senior managers just see having their own techs as a risk because they can't outsource the blame.

That and directly answering questions or questioning process upsets a lot of people because they have fiedoms. Like someone asks you for all your IP address you have on cloud and what server they're associated with. They have no ability to handle the dynamic nature of these changing but their job is to write them down so you need to fall inline sorta deal...

Massive. Overnight the calculus has shifted from containment to re-unification. The blue "Peninsula Flag" under which athletes of both nations marched in the Olympics was indeed prescient. Despite its interpretation in NK news broadcasts as a symbol of "autonomous unification". With the historical inevitability of the masses in the south adopting a revolutionary consciousness and being absorbed into the north. Today, we can take it to be a universal symbol of peace.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_Unification_Flag

Here at home, it gives Trump the necessary political capital going into primary season and the Midterm congressional elections. And perhaps even a shared Nobel. But low key bragging rights may actually belong to Xi. If NK does liberalize, it will be Beijing providing the investment.

> [...]something that can be pitched as a voluntary agreement between equals[...]

This is true in most negotiations, but something we tend to forget. Forced acceptance of an ultimatum when one party is at a significant disadvantage is the perfect environment to breed subversion and partisan resistance. The stakes may differ, but it fits human nature whether in matters of global politics or at a personal level, for instance, negotiating the scope of the next software release.
This removes a great deal of utility from the site. The majority of value in the site is not answering one individuals question at a time.

Most of the time that link has the answer I need, but every single time the conversation has violated some inane rule and has been shut down. Every single time.

No. If pi would contain itself it would be a rational number. We have a proof that pi is irrational, hence it cannot contain itself.

What happened in NK to cause that long stalemate will be written about and studied for generations to come. It just isn't what you think and the bad actors aren't who you think. Once those bad actors were removed, the process could go forwards.

Here's a hint: Kim Jong Il was a hardliner, but his son studied in Europe and was co-opted by the intelligence agencies.

Look at every time the US had some domestic issue that needed a distraction and you will find NK saber rattling as if on cue.

Then look at what Trump and company have been dismantling within the US (hint: "draining the swamp").

My conclusion is that the people who controlled NK were not in NK and that the entire conflict was fomented and kept alive by a faction located in the West. That faction has been dissolved or at least severely undermined beginning around last October.

It's happened in the past, e.g. with Pinochet — and later on the Spaniards went after him anyway, in spite of the amnesty and in spite of the bad example this would set for future dictators.
(a) Actually, the CA sends Stripe's actual business registration number in Delaware (4675506). It's the browser who chooses what to present.

(c) Is there any evidence of demand for those usecases? How would you even present them to the users in an understandable way?

"Certificate Authorities are not in the business of establishing identity and so they are fundamentally doomed to doing a poor job of verifying identity."

I don't see how that follows. In fact, I don't see how that's even possible. Whenever you do business with any entity besides the national registry - be it a bank, insurance company, notaries, or even another governmental department - they have to verify your identity. CAs just happens to give you a digital affidavit of the results.

Instead of trying to coerce CAs into the identity business because of the inflexible and glacial pace at which government moves, we should be pressuring government to adopt more modern identification practices.

I disagree; we already have problems with too-big-to-fail CAs; governments are even worse. A CA can be told "follow the CAB Forum rules or get kicked out". But you can't distrust a government when they're the only issuer for the sites of the whole country.

Yea, that's why today's news suprised me.

Kim Jung Un, and all the people propping him up know something we don't know.

They are not stupid. The world knows what happened to Libya's dictator.

Plus--Kim Jung Un looked scared. Almost like someone put a gun to his head, and said do exactly what we say?

This story will be huge.
This is a trap.

South Korea and the United States are politically weak right now -- not necessarily the leaders, but the political systems are at a low point of unity and resolve. Neither country really wants to deal with North Korea right now. People in each country would like this drama to be over, because it feels dangerous and intractable. The leaders in each country would love to deliver that feeling to us.

Kim Jong-un has an incredibly strong hand. He has nuclear missiles at his disposal, with apparently rapid progress toward increasing their range. He knows that other nations are fearful of those weapons, and that they won't do anything that risks putting them on the receiving end of even one.

We've had one bold historic headline after another now: Kim Jong-un has telegraphed a desire to denuclearize and to end the Korean war. He has raised the hopes of South Koreans and of Americans just enough that they each want a deal now, and their leaders now need to deliver.

But the price has not yet been negotiated.

What will be the price? Will Kim promise to stop further nuclear development? Will Kim promise to stop further missile development? Will Kim promise not to help other states develop nuclear missiles? Will Kim promise not to radically modernize his military in other ways as the floodgates of trade open?

Promises are inexpensive and reversible. Will he actually take any real steps to diminish or eliminate his nuclear and military power? I doubt it. Kim's not an idiot. He only needs to present the illusion.

People in the West seem to believe that Kim has experienced some sort of rebirth as a student of peace and nonviolence of late. But there's been no explanation and no demonstration (to my ears) of where that came from. It's possible perhaps that Xi Jinping whispered wonderful ideas and/or threats in Kim Jong-un's ear when he visited, but that's opaque to us and media I've read seems to be ignorant of such potential influence. If Kim were so serious, we should need him to demonstrate that credibly to us, through actions that are costly for him to take: in particular, pitching this change of vision directly and passionately to the populace of North Korea.

Kim Jong-un wants to get out from under the chokehold of heavy trade sanctions. He wants to be legitimized in the international community as the leader of a real nation. He wants to modernize both his military and his nation and his personal life. He probably dreams of visiting Paris and Manhattan.

It is my belief that he will be able to get these things -- without giving up nuclear weapons, missiles, nor giving up his political or military power over North Korea. From Kim's perspective, democratic politicians are weak and manipulable, and he will find it to be especially true right now.

(edit: s/telescoped/telegraphed/ -- thanks!)
Your calculation works backward from already knowing the index.

I assume jgtrosh's question is more of a probability and estimation question. E.g. the string "Hello world" takes up 11 bytes and what's the size of the index into pi? To generalize a little more, to store any 11-byte sequence, what is the estimated size to store its index? To find the exact 256^11 byte sequence in pi, there will be many cases where the sizeof(index) is greater than the data itself.
I usually view it as a cost–benefit sort of thing. When a choice has nearly zero cost, only very little benefit is needed to make it the rational choice as far as I'm concerned.

What does WeeChat offer over irssi? Very active development, scripting in many languages, dynamic filtering, raw buffer views, sane defaults, helpful configuration interface, good documentation, live/hotswapping upgrades, architectural soundness, many options for interaction (FIFO pipes, client-server protocol) and so on and so forth. I'm always surprised at how little WeeChat gets in my way when I want to do something out of the ordinary.

And unless you are heavily invested in the irssi ecosystem, the switch is basically effortless.

That's the cost–benefit of it. Another way to view it is this: People who switch from Irssi to WeeChat keep using WeeChat; while people who switch from WeeChat to Irssi go back to WeeChat.
No, loop decrements rcx until it reaches zero and then stops
That's not necessarily true and probably is false. What we know about Pi is that it includes an infinite number of elements, but this says nothing about the structure of those elements. An infinitely long random sequence will probably hold every pattern possible (I'm not a mathematician so correct me if I'm wrong) but any structured or repeating sequence doesn't.
> "H" not clearly discernable in the two green blobs, no reference to medicine at all

I've never seen either of these logos before, but in the new one I immediately see the "H" formed by the white space between the two "green blobs", which to me look like "healing hands" and which I take as a medical reference (although TBH they do make me think "chiropractor" rather than "doctor"). I don't think the new one is great, but I much prefer it to the old one, which looks like a very half-assed attempt to combine an H with the Rod of Asclepius. It's like they weren't even trying.
