The popular opinion is that it was all evil white devils. The historical answer is that African tribes and kingdoms had been trading slaves for thousands of years. It was a nice source of income for them. When England abolished slavery there was a lot of resentment among the African elite.

Also, it's a well-understood principle that soldiers are more comfortable actually killing the enemy if you actively dehumanize the enemy. Humans are generally very unwilling to actually kill other humans even in war so teaching them not to consider their enemies humans is an easy way to make them more efficient. Not surprising what happens when they then take the same mindset to POWs while being given free reign to "interrogate".

The question isn't whether England was a freak. The question is how we could allow this to happen after Lidice (Germany), Nanking (Japan) and My Lai (US). That no-one was tried for Abu Ghraib as a war crime is unsurprising but abhorrent.

Also United States in 2006 but nuclear plants killed about 327,000 and fossil-fuelled power plants 14.5 million. In other words, for every one bird killed by a wind turbine, nuclear and fossil fuel powered plants killed 2,118 birds. You would think that would be journalism worthy.

Plus Windmills only tend to kill birds in high numbers when built in migration paths.

We actually have some internal problems with those measures in Scandinavia. I live in Denmark and politically we’re made up of 98 municipalities, some are urban, some are rural. Because we share the economic task of welfare, richer municipalities send some of their money to poorer municipalities.

A part of the calculation for this process is build around the size of your bourse, which made good sense 15-20 years ago before urbanization really took off, but makes very little sense today.

It used to be that a country manor was much more expensive than a small downtown apartment. In fact most urban areas with small apartments used to house the lower working class, while country manors used to belong to the upper class.

Today that has switched around. Poor people can literally not afford to live in our largest cities while the most rural manors are now so inexpensive that my three room apartment in our second largest city could by me two-three country manors in the cheapest parts.

We’re changing the way we calculate “citizen net worth”, but in a democracy such a thing takes a long time, so it’ll probably be a few years, and we’ve already been at it for four. And that’s in a country of 5.6 million people, just imagine how slow it’d be in the WTO.

I’m not a conspiracy guy, but Trump is making a believer out of me. I think he’s financially indebted to the Russians, way prior to the elections, like 20 years, and when they managed to manipulate him into the Presidency he was stuck. Which is why he would never release his financials, because it would prove the Russians have him by the balls, and that he has far less money than anyone would believe. A broke Trump is a impotent Trump, a broke Trump that is owned by the Russians is the equivalent of a traitor.

The American people need to be unified in voice to demand that his financials are released. It should be the rallying cry of the nation, a drumbeat that keeps getting louder every day.

I don't agree. If you want to install Flatpak applications that you can trust to the same extent that you currently trust packages, all you need to do is encourage your distribution to host their own Flatpak repository and have current package maintainers move over. They can still implement their own fixes and patches and release cycles.

Flathub isn't trying to replace your package manager for everything, just for graphical desktop apps. As far as I'm concerned, it's more than welcome. I'm tired of hearing about a major release of a desktop app and not having it available for months. Even worse, I'm tired of hearing about a major release, experiencing horrible bugs when the maintainer updates it, and not having any long-term option to install the previous version so that I can get work done.

Flatpak solves all of this and more.

Oracle has just enough budget to hire someone knowledgeable to engage in the discussion, pointing out the issues and their fixes, possibly even linking the benchmarks that were (in their view) properly performed. One good engineer. Compare with the legal fees required to draft such an appalling, scared and knowingly guilty clause as "you can't talk about how our product performs despite having paid for it." This really needs to be treated with total derision, and utter contempt. It's an approach that has earned that response for it's sheer laziness before even beginning to measure it against any ethical standards.

Oracle are just an awful company in every dimension. This, is just like most everything else they do in that it reinforces the reputation they earned for themselves.
There's an obvious blotchy feature grid in all of the images generated by the French team. They don't look like paintings in technique at all, but only what they are: automatic collages of randomly blended pieces of photographs from old art.

The CAN images in that same Christie's article are much better, quite beautiful. But the author of CAN is full of shit in this interview answer:

> ‘An interesting question is: why is so much of the CAN’s art abstract? I think it is because the algorithm has grasped that art progresses in a certain trajectory. If it wants to make something novel, then it cannot go back and produce figurative works as existed before the 20th century. It has to move forward. The network has learned that it finds more solutions when it tends toward abstraction: that is where there is the space for novelty.’

The algorithm has grasped that art must move forward, so it paints abstract?! Or could it be that feeding random numbers into a black box neural network algorithm is never going to give you a human likeness... No, it must be that the AI just doesn't want to be Rembrandt.

With bullshit meters at this level, the next AI winter must be just around the corner.

Correct me if I am wrong, but all components of Docker CE are open source and one could therefore still download and build the binaries themselves, right?

> The logical next question in this context is, are the labels "developing" and "developed" good enough to determine which countries should get preferential treatment in international trade?

Many economists would think so and the WTO was set up with that rule precisely because people knew that it is an uneven playing field between the companies from rich and poor countries. Without protectionism, the nascent industries in developing nations would get crushed. Almost all major industrialised nations developed by starting out with protectionism.

> That the labels are no longer adequate in many applications is further highlighted by the fact that China is so diverse and vast that there are parts of it that are basically developed countries in their own right, judging by their per capita income levels. On the other hands, there are many provinces that are indisputably low-income by all accepted standards.

Here, you are confusing per capita and overall again. Why do labels no longer matter just because China is larger than most nations? Does per capita income no longer work the same way if the population size is larger? There are rich areas in many South American countries but no one would claim that these labels no longer matter for those nations just because there are some rich people or places. Why is it so different for China?

The Tyranny of the Coming Smart-Tech Utopia
Yes, of course, but the bigots and intolerants (i.e. the people shooting bullets) were here first. Introducing diversity into this world full of bigots and intolerants does create problems, and it’s a bit disingenuous to disclaim all responsibility when only pushing for diversity when you know it’s going to cause problems, especially since it’s mostly going to cause problems for the very minorities that diversity is ostensibly meant to help.

To be clear; I’m not blaming the actual victims of bigots and intolerants, nor do I want to remove any blame from the bigots and intolerants. I simply want to add some blame to those blindly pushing diversity without regard to who gets hurt.

Personally, as a moderate, I'm not going to accuse him of being a traitor until proven. But I demand that he proves he doesn't have any dubious ties and how much his properties have earned under his Presidency. If there was so much drama around the birth certificate of a US citizen President, I want to have even more clarity on their financial ties and demand that they don't sell our country.

As much as I hate to say, this administration looks like third world corruption at its finest. Willing to be proven wrong though!

Annoying but not the end of the world IMHO. In any case, I have a dockerhub account so I can publish containers there; so I might as well use it. Similarly I have a Github account and am actually a paying customer as well. The bottom line is I have accounts left right and center for things that I depend on professionally. Some of these I even pay for but most of them I don't pay a penny.

This is a closed source product distributed for free. They are well in their rights to charge money for it even. Given that and given how important this product is for my day to day routine (I run lots of docker stuff all the time), and given that docker has been contributing a lot of OSS code in this space, I think this is a relatively small and entirely fair price to pay.

I don't agree with the sense of entitlement in this thread. Docker providing a free community edition of a product they've built that allows running docker on top of Mac/Windows is not charity but a means for them to up-sell their commercial solutions. That's the only reason it exists. I'm grateful that it exists and I hope that they can make this work so I can continue to depend on this.

An alternative is getting a linux laptop and running pure open source versions of whatever containerization you require.
