In almost all wars, the "bad" is the group that lost the war. And when it cannot be decided or doesn't matter anymore, those who control the discourse decide who is/was "good".

Taking something away is not good or bad per se. Sometimes both sides see the other part "taking something away" from them (see any rebellion vs central power conflict).

How does it change which party has more money? They can already advertise, it'll just be tracked with their name - how does that change with anonymity?

You'd add size when you include whatever DOM abstraction you wind up going with, but at the same time you wouldn't need to add much else because the Go stdlib is pretty complete. On the other hand JS developers are adding Lodash and other utility things that Go already comes with.
Why would you waste an opportunity to gain $24M? What would be the point of denying it?
Because they can make $24 million by selling some rich people citizenship. Normal plebes like us have to go the usual route of getting a job, getting permanent residency after a few years, and then applying for citizenship.
Money in politics past a certain amount does little for the candidates. The difference between 600k and 100k is significant, politically.
I'd argue opportunity cost from lack of innovation in medecine and e.g. car safety/car replacements kills more than US military involvements... Car deaths alone are >37K in 2016 in the US alone:

Because they can I imagine. You can go a LOT of places visa-free with an Austrian passport (looks like 173 countries) and it looks like your immediately family gets citizenship too. They also don't appear to have a residency requirement, some require many months or a year even with citizenship via investment.
Because $24M > $0
it is illegal. saving a mil is not worth the risk to someone who has 500 of them
Yeah, not sure if you caught this before my edit, but I didn't see the release notes that said 500k at first. I didn't realize that webassembly could be gzipped and get that much savings.
There’s a limited amount of time in each day. A limited part of that day, you spend engaged with social media. A wealthy party can buy out all this prime time advertising and control the only narrative you get to see.
As far as I know, not even Microsoft supports Windows versions below 7 anymore. Vista support has ended, and XP support ended long ago.
Canada also have the "investor program (not passport, thanks robteix)". (grants permanent residency visa)

It requires you to be accepted through an application (no criminal / health problems) and to 800k loan interest-free to the government for 5 years. You also need business experience and at least 1,6m$ in legally-acquired assets.

Maybe Australia also have other criteria ? I think countries on that list don't ask many questions...

Pretty bad "article" overall. It could've offered so much more information :(
Video from 1991 Imagines What Real Estate Agents of the Future Might Look Like
Let me describe what I see in the first seconds of the video:

- First you open your app which seems to be a popup. It shows "tasks", "tables", "calendars". Fine.

- But suddenly it's gone and you are on a "It's Nice That" article. I don't understand what happened. It's about cycling and your app shows items about cycling. Ok. You click on "+". You type "Morning run".

- But suddenly it's all gone again. You're now typing "The Washing Company". It has nothing to do with cycling, or tasks, or calendars.

And all this happened in only 11 seconds. I don't understand what I saw or what happened. I don't understand what the app does :) It might be a todo-list app, it might be a bookmarking app, it might be kind of a dashboard. I can't tell because each scene lasts only 3 seconds, I need to pause the video to be able to read, and when you're about to do something, it's all gone and it's already the next scene. So I have no chance to see what the app can do :)

And it goes on like that. You're reading something about food. Then you're about to do something and bang, before you actually do it, you're reading something about shoes :)

I work mostly with EmberJS (www.emberjs.com) as my Single Page Application (SPA) framework and I really like my productivity.

Ember has 3 core projects (Ember, Ember-CLI, Ember-Data) that deal with Routing, Data Store, Build Tooling, Templates, everything you need to build a SPA application. Things are built to work together so most of the times, things just work.

The framework has been around since 2011 and keeps getting better/modern. I've started an app in 2015, with Ember 1.13, and I've been upgrading since (currently on 3.0).

There are a lot of community addons for most situations (date-pickers, select, deploy, analytics, etc... you can get a sense by browser ember-observer.com)

How to prepare for a Coding Bootcamp
Few can argue that these rules or others like them aren't needed for regular users.

The "problem" is all of these companies that have made bank in the past decade swallowing all internet users' data get to keep that data and continue to make money off it, while new competitors won't have the same opportunity. They also get to keep all the money they've made from exploiting that data.

Since the solution isn't "just allow everyone to abuse the data just like Google/Facebook have for the past decade" then it must be to "take all of Google/Facebook's targeting data" and preferably even fine them large amounts of money to nullify the profits they've made from this abuse. Although the latter is a tricky one with the whole passing laws that apply in retrospective.
> I’m speaking generally, not on this specific election.

Well, with regards to this specific "referendum", there was a landslide in favour of repeal (of the 8th Ammendment to the constitution, which blanket banned any and all abortion under all circumstances). All polling and subsequent analysis suggest that there was nothing untoward with this result.

However. This was a hugely divisive topic, as you might expect, and it attracted a huge amount of attention from oversees.

Complaints have been made on both sides of the campaign about interference by foreign actors, in particular well-funded ones buying and targeting ads.

That Facebook gave an undertaking to stop running ads, came to naught since they continued to run the ads because who can say no to that kind of money right?

What Irish people want to know is "who" and to what degree outside forces were trying to interfere with the democratic process here. How much money was being spent, and, to understand definitively which side was doing more meddling, because there's been a fair amount of mudslinging the last six months or so.
So, that's you who add that console message. I've submitted a PR to remove the styling it breaks on many browsers (actually, it only works on Chrome-based browser).

C.H.I.P. Pro Clones Now on Amazon – Hackster Blog
About 5 years ago I took vacation at St Kitts // Nevis and, somehow, locally learned about the "invest for citizenship" exchange deal they had. Somehow again I was surprised to find them on this list, but this time with a numerical dollar value and how long it's been in action.

The romantic side of me has considered it once or twice had I the disposable liquid cash for it.
Not so easy. As a new spouse living in my wife's country, getting citizenship – or even a permanent spouse visa – is a long, tedious, and relatively stressful process.
This article got me wondering...how is the law structured around this sort of thing? Generally speaking, it's highly illegal to dig up and open a grave since we generally have respect for a person's final resting place and this has been codified into law. So what are the rules surrounding this?

I assume special legal approval must be granted similar to what is required, for example, when a body needs to be exhumed as part of an ongoing investigation?
"too bad it's gonna be military use first"

Wow, I can't believe your comment is what we're discussing. I've seen some version of this on the Internet for 30 years now. I must have answered it a dozen times.

Can we turn this into an Internet FAQ? Basically, it wastes everyone's time. If everyone here agreed with you, would it change anything?

If you think the military spends a lot on research, you should see what they spend on non-research.

You can do that, if you are in that position. I wouldn't be, we've been in the U.S. since the early 1700's on both sides of my family. That process also moves like a snail compared to citizenship by investment.
What is the "file system permission" you are referring to?

See: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/Manifest.per...

If you don't mind sharing, what app are you referring to?

The file system itself should be well protected (on a non-rooted phone) as to prevent any unauthorized access to important data. Any app can only do whatever on the SD card if you give it permission to do so, but on the OS file system itself there isn't much they can do (again, on a non-rooted phone).
How so?

If that was easy that would obviously been done by now. Doesn't mean the alternatives (like phage libraries in "3rd world rural clinics") are more realistic.

Proper antibiotics circulation is a policy problem; phage therapy is scientific, technological and policy problem.
I've seen people go through this process (without money involved, to be clear, they were genuinely trying to live together) in both Canada and the US and it's nowhere near as simple or guaranteed as people think. Maybe it is in some countries, but I'd expect many 'desirable' countries are actively trying to filter out people who marry specifically for citizenship.
That's the whole game, pretend that the information is not personally identifiable but it's just one lookup away when the person uses his credit card on any website that is part of the net.
Increased transparency is not at all equatable to censorship.

On the other hand, unlimited unaccountable anonymous political advertising that stifles everyone else is exactly what causes the censorship of actual legitimate views and opens up societies to manipulation and abuse from internal and foreign actors.

Parking garages are much superior to flat parking lots, especially if you put them underground, underneath the buildings in question. Keep the eyesores hidden.

The best option would be to make neighborhoods walkable/bikeable, implement good public transit as much as possible, and offer an affordable delivery service for bigger items. Going further, it would be beneficial to abolish megastores and return to more human-sized retail outlets.

Visa-free travel.

Germany has visa-free travel to 176 countries, Sweden 175, many other countries still give you access to more than 170. Yes, a US Passport gets you visa free to 174 but that could change at the drop of a hat with the wrong invasion or military strike.

If you're American and America does something the world sees as shitty, you're suddenly restricted where you can travel and may in fact not want to be travelling on an American passport for very real threat of harassment.
No it's not. It's contributed to the general fund of the EU.

If you fully follow the money, it's mostly used to make local EU agricultural products cheaper, and for the government offices and jobs in Brussels and Strasbourg.
Neither linux containers nor linux chroot provide meaningful security. They’re useful for other things, but the kernel itself isn’t particularly well hardened against local privilege escalation attacks.

That depends (a lot) on the displaying and viewing conditions; are your slides projected in a dimly-lit room, or are the lights on? Readability of your slides is affected by that.

Although slides often don't contain much information that needs to be read in full detail, I find code examples to be better readable in a dark font on a lighter background.

Sometimes the conference gives some advice regarding the slides (dark text on light backgrounds or vice versa), since they'll know / set the room lighting conditions.
I think this won't work because the app can get away by asking (insisting) for more permission than it actually needs.

"The backdoors are interesting as... does anyone want to hack someone who buys a $100 iPhone, I guess so?"

Having a backdoor on a mobile device means having a backdoor to any intranet that device connects to. A lot of people keep everything
accessible on their local intranets: files, printers etc.
If you get your compromised phone into your lawyer's office and he/she lets you use their unsecured intranet to get on the internet, chances are that then their network becomes compromised as well.

Ha. In like 20-30 years, assuming that the entire political course of the country does a 180 degree spin and stays on it. It would be faster, cheaper, and easier, to just live in any EU country for 5 years and get the passport that way.

If you do a lot of business in Turkey you might want to make sure that you don't have to wait for a lengthy visa process, or any other diplomatic issues that might come. Being able to travel into a country as a citizen has a lot of benefits, and rights.
A country is NOT a business, and there's international treaties and whatnot to consider - what if a terrorist were to buy their way into an Austrian citizenship? What if a wanted US criminal escapes to Austria and hides behind their Austrian citizenship?

Rule 1, stay to the right. Generally, there is a black line running down the center of the line. Stay to the right of it, it's like traffic. Swim down on the right, reach the wall, turn, turn around swim down on the right again (you're on the opposite side). You don't have to coordinate with anyone. That's why it's courteous to stay to the corner of the lane when you are stopped at a wall.

Having gone through this process in the US myself, I won't dispute the "not simple" part, but how is it not guaranteed? As long as the marriage is done in good faith why would the permanent residency - and then citizenship - be denied?

There is no CAP for "green cards through marriage" so no waiting list, and the residency period to transition to citizenship is shorter (3 years) than the standard (5 years I believe).
It'd be nice to not have to drive, but people hate people not behind the wheel of a car around here. Taking a bike on the road is taking your life in your own hands, people go out of their way to injure or kill cyclists around here, and the cops don't care.

The West was first in using "fake news": there were radio stations broadcasting western propaganda in Russian. When Soviet Union collapsed, the volume of propaganda increased by several orders.

And it continue to this day via internet. I have no other explanation to a never ending flurry of articles in social networks and forums that we Russians:
1) evil people dreaming of conquering every country on this planet (this contradicts history and common sense but who cares)
2) we're "genetic garbage"
3) we didn't win in WW2, we just plundered Germany and raped German women
4) it would be better if we surrendered to Germany in WW2
5) we're dumb aggressive people and all our inventions were stolen from the west scientists

Etc etc.

I see articles with all these points and more every day on Facebook. Who writes and disseminate them?..
Well "democracy" already has a problem if voters are so vacuous and easily swayed by paid advertising.
The concept of citizenship and passports always seemed so archaic to me. I never signed a contract with anybody, yet the place I was born in ultimately decides the boundaries of the space I'm allowed to live in.

Thankfully there is a lot of freedom of movement if you're lucky enough to have a "good" passport, but recently we've seen the trend reverse a bit due to the refugee-scare. Hopefully one day everything will be open for anybody.

But just hypothetically, if I want to grab a bike, ride to some isolated forest in France, build a cabin and live the hermit life, I can not to that. I'd be forcefully removed and placed back into my designated space. And force really is the only thing that gives basis to the claim of land. Seems kinda weird. Animals don't care and just move where ever they want to.
If there is "a way" to think about something, it sounds to me like there's some kind of curious orthodoxy at work. Where does this frame of understanding journalism as inescapably flawed because of biases come from? Is there a literature or is this just, like, a talk radio line?
