I assume you meant to say "you claimed you got your degree in 93 when you actually got it in 92". I work in the background check business and each check has its own windows of acceptance. Depending on how long ago the degree was awarded, the window can vary from 0 years to 10+ years. This is also contextual, as if the immigration application was submitted in 93, and you say you got your degree in 92, when you actually got it in 94, and your immigration was approved in 95. This is a clear case of an invalid application.

Having said that, I'd like to see an example of deportation on the grounds of a 1 year mistake in the year one had received their degree, when the degree was received 30 years prior to application. I would like to see it not because I'd agree with such a measure, but because it would give you a strong case.

As it stands I don't believe that anything close to that has happened.

I agree that SO is a great place in my experience.

The worst area seems to be JavaScript, since that world is full of trendy new options. The most common one I see here is where someone wants a solution to a JavaScript problem and gets a JQuery response; even though a JavaScript solution would be trivial and the OP's not mentioned JQuery. That has a tendency to push people into using libraries where they're not required.

For .Net questions most of the issues seem to be in the ORM space; i.e. the boundary between .Net and SQL; where people asking for help with SQL are pointed to LINQ, and people wanting to do database-first are pushed towards code-first solutions.

It's not really an SO problem (or at least not a problem that I can think of an easy way they'd be able to solve); more there are so many solutions and no best way; and giving the full context of the developer's experience, preferences, and situation would take several essays, then matching that to those qualified to supply a suitable answer for that particular scenario would require really intelligent filtering; assuming that such people exist and are active on SO. So the current solution of having lots of answers to pick from, and allowing people to up-vote and comment to help remove bad answers and help show which answers are the more generally preferred (thus driving those who don't have a preference to follow the general consensus and thus move towards some form of standard approach within the community) seems a pretty good one.

I have not read those books. It sounds the CIA pressuring third world nations to do things not in their economic interests. I don't support that.

That is bad but different to stealing technology using hidden back doors which China reportedly does. I have no evidence either way.

But pressuring third world nations to do things not in their economic interests is not that different to what the One Belt One Road program is doing using loans on uneconomic projects.

Both are bad but US does not seem to steal technology through hacking like China does. I am not sure why

No, it is not silly to suggest people who aren't 911 responders might be able to put out smaller fires... that's why homes have fire extinguishers nearby. (I hope yours is not an exception.)

One of the best blog-ads for a product I've seen in a long time.

It effectively shows value of their software while being interesting enough and relevant to something popular that already has (some) following. Perfect.

Makes me wish they had something similar for JS or Python. I know I've made these mistakes all too often.
Specifically because this is an announcement that is a copy of functionality shown for Android already.

It's Apple catching up.. which if this was a journalistic article would be mentioned.

"Apple announces same feature Google announced 6 months ago"
That article has the title "Mysterious source of illegal ozone-killing emissions revealed, say investigators", which is an interesting angle that I didn't get from this article. I'm glad I read both.
That's a really cool service.

How did you get the word out when you were starting out? Was it just basics like adwords, etc?
From that article:

> “When the municipal environmental bureau runs a check, our local officers would call me and tell me to shut down my factory. Our workers just gather and hide together.”

So at-least they know it wrong, and inspectors are at-least pretending to do inspections. Maybe outside pressure will bring an end to with is likely local corruption.
"US does not seem to steal for economic purposes at all."

Sorry but they use their intelligence for economic reasons e.g. Airbus contracts. And Snowden leaks also revealed that spying is not only limited to security or political targets...

And to be honest with the current American President who is "hugely" (so yuge you could not believe it) untrustworthy and is certainly not a friend of the other western countries, I can't honestly say that it's very difficult anno 2018 to determine who you can trust.

Not to mention that MANY (too many!) websites don't display anything AT ALL, if you don't have Javascript enabled.

Why?

I'm not talking about "app"-like sites (like Gmail), where it -somewhat- makes sense to use Javascript, but blogs or information sites (i.e. text + images).

The worst is that when you look at the domains to unblock, you often get dozens (not counting the Ads networks that I have already marked as untrusted)! This is crazy, a pretty simple page should NOT require all that complex (and slow) architecture.

And don't get me started about the comments sections! Not only do they usually require Javascript to see anything (which is stupid since just reading them should not require it), but ALL their UIs seem to compete for the title of "most aggravating interface ever". They always seem to try their hardest to be slow, confusing, and once you get more than a few dozen messages on the page (as they load on demand), they become simply so difficult to use that it's a chore then a torture to try to reach the last (or first) one.

I could also rant about the loss of bookmarking functionalities (because of infinite scrolling for instance), and of the previous/forward browsers' buttons...

In summary: in many cases, if not most, Javascript is used in a way that kills the user experience instead of enhancing it. And I don't see things getting any better, quite the opposite.
Okay let's just spend trillions of dollars giving every person who has applied for immigration complete background checks, and if any of the checks can't be completed for any reason what-so-ever, we should deny them citizenship. Sounds like a plan, Stan. That, or we just deny everybody because we can't afford it.

Employers can afford to vet their employees. The state cannot afford to vet any regular citizenship application to the same degree. If we could, that'd be great.

This is why it makes sense to assume the best in people (like we do), and if it turns out they intentionally lied or mislead on their application, then revoke the awards that were provided based on that misinformation.

"Both are bad but US does not seem to steal technology through hacking like China does. I am not sure why"

Maybe not through hacking but historical a lot of the industrial revolution that happened in the US was by means of "stealing" British technology, improving on it and don't have any regards for their patents at that time.

There is really some irony somewhere in there.
Yeah I read the context a while ago (about there being a new source of CFCs around but nobody knew where from, yet).

That's just SO reflecting the culture of JavaScript developers, right? As you say, not really SO's fault, and a forum can't hope to correct for a dev community's vices.

Disagree. There's plenty on .Net concurrency and asynchrony, for instance, with answers from top experts from Microsoft. That's a field where it's quite common for someone to be 'simply wrong' though, which as you say, isn't universal.
"People hoped that China would open up while modernising, so far it has not worked at all."

Thank you. I was vaguely aware of different meanings, and I didn't want to use a term that I wasn't sure of its exact meaning.

(That stems from my ongoing frustration with people mixing up terms in various IT arenas like trouble tickets or design documents. "The server is down" can mean a hundred different things depending on who is saying it, and spending time teasing out the true meaning of a bug report or Jira issue can be maddening!)
Ah, and the reason posting this question is that “novichok” shouldn’t be active such a long time after people prepared it in March, if it was novichok indeed (if the whole thing is not a hoax anyway). So this second case makes no sense with novichok but with opioids, on the other hand, it does.
Do you allow multi linking, intermap linking, branch copying to other Kialos of claims or do people always have to rewrite them from scratch (and all their children?)? Because if you did, you would know that claims have to change their color based on what is exactly above them.

Also, when you are on level 10 of a debate, the claims might very well be a subdiscussion that attack the veracity or relevance of their parents, not of the thesis. Our debates often have >1k claims, that's the only way to handle it. A pro or a con relates directly to the parent above.

Communication (and media) is important during a revolution (Examples: [1]). Or, more recently, look at the Arab spring where GSM and Bluetooth were important. The importance of radio and TV. Art is a form of communication, and with proper coverage the message is spread (ie. Bansky).

Google certainly played a major role, and it wasn't my intention to shelter companies/governments from blame. However, I certainly don't believe holding individuals accountable is futile. They need to consider if people can be suppressed, stripped of their rights, imprisoned, and murdered thanks to their research/code.

We should encourage developers to fight for privacy, and discourage them from engaging in research/writing code that can be used to commit evil acts.

And yes, I wholeheartedly agree that everyone should vote.
3D Printed Upgrade for Cheap Foam Glider
> because the sum stolen – £40,000 – is deemed not large enough to bother the authorities

There was an investigative news story on TV about a couple who would order hundreds of thousands of dollars of merchandise over the Internet using stolen credit card numbers and brazenly have it delivered to their own home. The TV crew showed their house brimming top to bottom with boxes and boxes of fraudulently obtained goods that they would resell on eBay. They said no police ever visited them.

In every one of the frauds the couple committed, the merchant would know that he shipped to (for example) 1234 Main St, Minneapolis. The credit card issuer, bank, and defrauded card holder would have the address also. Probably hundreds of police reports were made, or am I assuming too much? If a single policeman actually followed up on one of these "too small" thefts of $100 to $1000 they could have prevented hundreds of thousands of dollars of additional theft.

I imagine that the system breaks down because no one reports the fraud or pushes to get something done, or because the police don't follow up, or both.

This is what I did. Create a ‘Uni’ calendar and fill it with your class days and times - with repeats used as necessary.

Irritatingly, Siri doesn’t distinguish between calendars so you can’t reel off just classes, but you can ask about the day or the next ‘event’.

Personally I found this setup along with Apple’s ‘Up Next’ widget and Siri Apple Watch face to be way better than any other class management app I tried.

Sure, but you still need:

- a server/reverse proxy (h2o, apache, nginx, httpd, etc.), in which you correctly set tons of things, such as headers [0], https (acme.sh? or acme-client?)

- haproxy for IPv4/IPv6 if you want to live in the future, but still be available to people living in the past century [1]

Default versions and settings are still broken (SSL still enabled in 2018, etc.)... Mozilla does help though by publishing some sane templates [2].

In the end, it's not quite as complex as webapps, but still very far from trivial.

Some of the recent attack vectors I can remember:

* An employee account was compromised - usually because they re-use their password and that password was exposed in an unrelated breach. And then failure to require 2 factor authentication for 'internal' accounts - (github organisations, aws, internal administration tools, etc.)
- Timehop, Gentoo

* Failure to patch known vulnerabilities
- Experian

* Running untrusted code client side (Webchat)
- Ticketmaster (although unclear what the vulnerability was that allowed the compromised scripts to be uploaded to Inbenta)

* Unsecured database backups
- Typeform (although it's unclear yet what the original compromise entailed)

* Data left 'accidentally' exposed publicly (no credentials required to access it)
- Exactis

When you say something that triggers someone’s trauma, often their only choice is between an emotional response and simply keeping quiet and hoping to leave the situation.

The same person at a later time (or someone who has obvserved that trauma second hand) can sometimes form a calm, rational, politically correct depiction of the issue for you.

If you demand the latter, you will learn much slower, because you are rejecting the best available information on what things are traumatic to people.
