Since 1955: The Korean war was never ended, and there was an active and continued military engagement with daily exchanges in Iraq from 1991 through 2003.

The mainland United States has not been attacked as a part of a military operation in the modern era, so the defensive claim is questionable.

>> some of us thinks that server side decorations are better for security, because otherwise a client can fake the look of another client.

If the decorations are done server-side then all applications will look the same anyway.

Having said that, I think decorations probably are the job of the desktop environment since those are the things that a user manipulates at that level of abstraction. Moving, resizing, closing programs is a UI thing and an application really shouldn't know where it is within the desktop environment. That's actually a security concern IMHO.
There's also the group of first generation Indians who have kids, would like to feed their kids Indian food, but don't have an hour each day after work to prepare a fresh meal. Combining these packets with homemade daal and rice would make an easy weekday meal for a small family (although in NYC you can find housewives who'll come to your house once a week and prepare a week's worth of fresh food for cheaper than these packets).

It’s complex because there are different reasons for addiction.

Prescription rates are very high to support your example [0]

Recreational use is a bit harder, for me at least, to gauge. I found the 2017 global drug survey [1] showing about 2% opium/heroine use among respondents.

So you have a stupid and a stupider list, eh? Interesting tactic.
If you were already an "advanced Lisper" in the 1980's, Common Lisp might be something like C11 to someone who had expert C chops before even C99.

I code in C regularly, yet I do not care and am not interested in C after C90. Only some library features of C99 and that's about it.

Stallman's concepts of what is Lisp, how to use Lisp, how to implement Lisp, were formed long before Common Lisp.

If you're in that position, it's easy to have allergic reactions to requirements you don't agree with.
An intelligence operation has different requirements. While those listed applications might hide the contents of the messages, you can still see that messages were sent/received, and that might be enough to warrant you for summary execution in China.

During WW2/WW1 the British knew when air raids were coming from Germany by recognizing radio traffic patterns, and activity. The radio traffic was encrypted, and they could not understand whatever was sent, but the traffic itself created patterns that alerted them.
Where is the data though? Certainly some experiments/simulations would validate these ideas.

I've been to Paris a few times and when people tell me they want to go there for romantic reasons, I just tell them to go to Bruges instead. The Old Town of Bruges is exactly the way most people seem to imagine Paris: old buildings, reasonably clean, lots of street cafés and horse-drawn carriages.

Even the Eiffel tower looks better from a distance than close-up (mostly because it's really just a massive lump of steel). There are nice corners in Paris but if you haven't actually ever been to Paris before, you'll probably be disappointed by the overall experience.

Massachusetts, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia voted for the Virginia Plan, while New York, New Jersey, and Delaware voted for the New Jersey Plan, an alternate that was also on the table. The delegates from Maryland were split, so the state's vote was null.

It's pretty evenly split. It's difficult to suggest it's all or mostly about slavery.

It may be compelling but claims like that need evidence, and when you pull in the evidence it's not so convincing.
Actually, it specifically said that the overdose trend is more pronounced in females.

But what's not said seems to also be relevant to the issue you raise. For instance, for suicides, I'd wager the trend is more pronounced for males. (Though they didn't call that out. So that may or may not be the case).

But whether those in poor mental health are committing suicide, or seeking escape in opioids and other drugs, the final result was clearly the same. Doesn't really matter if you're male or female.
But that's kind of the rub -- people in Hingham might carp that they don't want to pay for the T in Boston, and yet their own prosperity comes, in part, from having a nearby city with well-funded public services
The article covers this in detail, but I can share our experiences in the opposite direction: We used charting to maximize our chances of getting pregnant.

Accurate fertility tracking requires multiple signals. When we were trying to get pregnant, my wife used body temperature, ferning, timing of her period, and the viscosity of her discharge all together. Combining the signals gives a remarkably clear picture, but temperature alone has a lot of noise.

Our charting tool also had a slot for logging sex, too. Most of the userbase we had contact with were actively trying to get pregnant and many had difficulty doing so. Being able to track past history allows you to phase-shift sexy time against the cycle to try and get the timing just right. I should mention that for couples who are trying to get pregnant unsuccessfully, the entire process can be extremely stressful. So while trying to shoot a perfect timing bullseye doesn't make a whole lot of sense physiologically, desperate people will try to tease out any signal they can for explaining why they can't get pregnant.

FTA:

> but 54 percent of those women dropped out within the first year,

That's not at all surprising. Rhythm method charting takes a fair amount of work and regularity that makes it something of a pain. There's also better tools for it than this app. Their target userbase seems to be couples that are both dedicated anti-contraceptionists and ~~lazy~~ less than fully vigilant.

I suspect the reality is that many users were trying it out just to learn about their own bodies, but were otherwise relying on other contraceptive methods. Once the curiosity wore off, they stopped using it.
A decade from now, perhaps we'll learn about the CYA failure that resulted in news of this disaster being released to the public... I reckon that just like everything else about the unsupervised services, this is just the tip of the awful iceberg. Probably there are ten failures like this for every one we learn of.
To me, preventing this seems like exactly the sort of thing the NSA ought to be for.

There is a reason humans evolved morality to regulate bad behavior. Morality helps you resist your base desires and do what is better for yourself and the group in the long term.

Do people become addicts because of moral failing? In some (many?) cases, yes. Not all, and not undeserving of treatment/help to recover in any case.
> and the security of the system relied upon the firewall between the different front-ends

I really don't think there's anything to conclude from the "firewall" comment. This term has become a layman way of describing any kind of intended separation between computer systems. People know what firewalls are and so it becomes an overused analogy. It's like how passwords are described as being "encrypted" in layman media.

The quotes refer to other "natural" methods that were once pitched but are now bunk. "Natural" also has religious connotation in the US. Rhythm method was the church-approved means of family planning. It doesnt work, with a per-year failure rate of at least 10%. So anyone talking of natural birth control is eyed with sucpicion.

Tech Tip: Create Your Own Emoji Characters, One Way or Another
What does that even actually prove? Like, of course people who can distinguish the reasonable from the unreasonable are likely to be smarter, more experienced and more responsible, and thus contribute more to the society. If somebody is not very bright as to not even tell the BS from the sensible, then surely they also can't have the intelligence and smartness and resolve to actually contribute to the community in meaningful ways. Hell, they might well even put a load of money and support into foolhardy schemes that absolutely don't work and damage the community, or that are downright scams. On the contrary, smart people of course would know where to dedicate their money/efforts for the maximum effect on the society as a whole.

Also, the so-called "bullshit sensitivity" is undoubtedly related to many other factors like literacy, educational level, income, social status etc. No doubt people who enjoy a higher social status and have more money on their hands instead of having to worry about making ends meet, would find it easier to contribute to "pro-society" activities. I just simply fail to see how this study is much meaningful. (Even the word "prosocial" is just dubious. It's not in the sense of "socializing more" but "contributing more to the society".) Sounds like quite a BS study to me.
This technology can prove useful for public safety since there are WiFi almost everywhere these days and all entry points in malls or schools can be covered very easily. There is a chance this can be misused as well.

Certainly for a state like Connecticut it was more about preserving the influence of a smaller state, but why would Virginia throw its support behind a plan that would seem to weaken its own influence? That's a question worth asking (and honestly I don't know enough about the views of all the individual delegates to answer it). And in reality the plan did benefit slaveholder interests -- certainly by the time Southerners were trying to conquer every piece of Latin American territory they could get their hands on to increase the slave vote they were conscious of these dynamics.

Random observation: I'm always fascinated by how poverty and development can co-exist in a lot of places on earth. During conflicts between Israel and Palestine, you always see photos of the insides of Palestinian hospitals and the lack of sanitation and equipment is heartbreaking. But then this ice-cream shop has high tech equipment, high sanitation standards, and a seemingly relatively wealthy client base. And the street looks like it could be any street from any other relatively stable, developed nation in that area.

I suppose it's also all a matter of the point that the media are trying to make with the article... A travel article is going to highlight the cool parts, while an article on the horrors of war is going to focus on the disasters.

In the NHS, that isn't possible. You either take the doctor's treatment, or you get no treatment at all. You can go around, asking different doctors, or having a discussion with your doctor, but you will not be prescribed something you don't need. The incentive being, that with a tax payer funded system, money should go to those who actually need it. It is understood here I guess that the doctor is the expert, not you.

Wouldn't surprise me. Amazon looks like it has dominated the ecommerce and cloud market already, so now it wants to branch into physical locations now. There's more room for oppurtunity and they haven't saturated those areas yet

In many ways, Amazon is becoming a real estate company now. For some reason I imagine Amazon's next big purchase is going to be gyms, it just makes the most sense to which market segments they are heading towards now(consumers who are on the middle-end to higher end spectrum). Its probably going to something like gold's gym or LA fitness. I mean they have "Amazon GO" stores already, which works perfectly next door to gyms because of its smaller footprint.

I also wager Amazon will want to expand into the oil & gas as well afterward. We'll see the equivalent Amazon version of Wawa gas stations. Its differentiator is going to be based on its own technology + ideas from Japan's technology innovations. This will also be a test-bed infrastructure for electric vehicles and its footwork into the car industry, 30-40+ years down the road.

Amazon probably is looking to convert its whole foods store into its "Amazon GO" concept, although this is a long process in the making. Wholefoods 365 (the ones after the merger) might be the testbed market first though, not the original Wholefoods. I've done some actual work with Amazon here too

Amazon is already in the police survelliance market in orlando. Everyone's face in downtown is under high resolution CCTV's routed through AWS. More real estate means more areas to use it too. We have China as a test market for social media credit scores already, amazon is just potentially laying more footwork for the American market if it ever pivots and gains wider acceptance.

Amazon's long term goal is to essentially have everything "essential" route through them. It'll be like a black mirror episode in the making. Bezo want influence, the best way to do this is dominate every major market sector that people deal with daily/weekly. 20 years from now, you'll deal with Amazon on a daily basis even if you didn't want too, because there's no better alternatives.

Companies like facebook, google, amazon etc have far more power and influence on different levels than many countries. Why build a country when you can build a global business empire? At least that's how I imagine Bezos is thinking

This is the kind of snide remark that drives me crazy.

Treating addiction as a disease will not fix anything except put more money in the drug companies pockets (which is why they push this narrative). Treating diseases is amazingly more ineffective than preventing the disease.

Preventing addiction is not something we like to talk about. Our drug companies and government have been amazingly complicity in pushing pain standards that have killed hundreds of thousands. Similarly we have so called "treatments" for depression, ADHD, and other newly-popular diseases that may in fact be making things worse long term, but the government has done nothing to make sure that long term outcomes are better but has been run by Big Pharma for a long time.

I don't think addiction is a disease or a moral failing, it's more a product of the environment of the addict.

Case in point: up to 20% of soldiers in Vietnam were addicted to heroin during the war, and up to 40% had tried it, but when they came home only about 5% remained addicted.
See: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/j.1521-0391....

There are many factors in a person's life that lead to addiction, and while I'm not an expert, I think there needs to be a formalized system of getting people out of the environments in which they became addicted as part of the treatment.
US bosses now earn 312 times the average worker's wage
None of these. Why should we look to blame someone? At the core of this issue as well as many in the US, we are in the midst of a mental health epidemic. The medical system in this country does not care about preventative care, the primary directive is triage.

Why are people using drugs at staggering quantities? Whether it is "recreational" or seemingly necessary, mind-altering substances are being used for a reason and I don't think this country has a good answer to why. We certainly do not have a good way to solve this problem.

The OP doesn't focus on this in the post, but they're a recent grad with no work experience.

Maybe it was a bit of a cattle-call experience, but IBM is sorting through thousands of similar grads and needs some way to screen them for technical positions when many will have no professional history.

Once you think about it some more, it's not that different from any other quine. A quine is a program whose output is bytes that are shown as text to the viewer. GLSL doesn't have text rendering capabilities, but all that means is that you have to embed a text renderer in your quine, i.e. a fixed string. Once you can build a quine, embedding any random fixed string in it is more or less trivial.

Not that it's not super neat, but the more interesting achievement for me is the compact text renderer, not the act of embedding a text renderer in a quine.
Certainly for a state like Connecticut it was more about preserving the influence of a smaller state, but why would Virginia throw its support behind a plan that would seem to weaken its own influence?

Because while they were aware of that, there was more at play than racism and slavery, as Virginia voting against its interests suggests.
