The tide is turning for sure. As a lifelong Democrat I'm disgusted with censorship from a group I though respected 1st Amendment Rights. If the Democrat party and it's Tech cohorts no longer support democracy then need to vote for their competitor even if they are Republican. Then we can vote out similar Republicans and start over with new Reps.
If they wanted to, once detecting a battery, they could:

1. Open the luggage themselves

2. Remove the item containing the battery

3. Replace it with a note saying that the item was removed

4. Close the luggage back up

5. Put the luggage back on the plane

6. Discard the item

What are you going to do, sue them? Post bad things about them on social media?
The comment drops a 'pro tip' that they use ciproflaxin in their plant lab as a growth inhibitor - writes confused criticisms of a study warning of antibiotic resistance accelerated by synergies with common herbicides - its beyond irony really.

The CIP only experiment was conducted to test a separate hypothesis and clearly sub sectioned: " Herbicide-induced changes in MSC can occur without a change in MIC .... To test this, we measured the frequency at which acquired ciprofloxacin resistance arose during culture in the combination of Cip + Kamba + E. coli "

Its no coincidence that various antibiotics have herbicidal qualities - the study is conducted to gain some information on potential interplay of these classes of substance.

As long as there is a BAA between this person’s company and Google, this should be acceptable from a HIPAA standpoint, no? Or are people’s concerns more about the fact that Google is in the mix, without the patients being aware?
We can disprove it, any one of the many, many lines of evidence that have been collected so far could have disproved the WIMP/CDM theory of dark matter. They haven't. Instead they've eliminated all of the other alternatives. That's science.
Having a lot of empathy can be counterproductive when it leads to assuming that specific cases are general enough to form policy.

Aside from that, I disagree that PC is primarily intended to protect minorities. It is an attempt to control language and therefore people's thoughts, which is insidious. If one result of PC is less negative discrimination the other results are too high a price.
This may be a dumb question, but could dark matter just be regular matter, like planetoids? What if interstellar space had a light sprinkling of things like Oumuamua?

On an interstellar scale, maybe this could create the lensing effects and explain some other phenomena. Is it unreasonable that 5/6 of the mass of the universe is like the stuff that makes up planets, but isn't lit up as brightly as a star?
Indeed the mass of dark matter is why we think there is dark matter -- discrepancies such as you mention, but evident from astronomical observations. The problem for characterizing the particles is: Mass and what else? The what else is the thing people are trying to detect.
I hadn't learned about arrow functions yet when it was written in 2015 :)
You have to have a theory to test before you can test it. If they are stating as fact something that hasn't been proven, that's a problem. If they are testing the assumptions which closest matches the data, that is science.

Why open office design makes people less productive
I've been receiving significantly more robocalls recently, and this data backs it up. I'm not even sure why they bother. They never leave voicemails, and on the few occasions I actually pick up, I just get silence on the other end.
It wasn't entirely clear to me if it was part of their culture to be overly dismissive of the applicants perspective and expectations in working somewhere or to intentionally test your reaction to contrived behavior..

But assuming behavior was contrived tests, why would you want to work for an employer that is tuning on who to hire by making sure they can abuse them in certain ways?

There's probably no sense in trying to fathom anything about why a company seems ugly when you can just move on.
You can "firmly believe" in whatever you want. That's not science, that's belief. The evidence points towards the existence of dark matter very strongly, and the evidence has eliminated the possibility of dark matter being made up primarily of black holes. Which, incidentally, do exist and are not "black stars" (the gravitational wave detections of merging black holes are the strongest evidence yet of the existence of black holes and don't leave wiggle room for alternate theories).

If you don't form your beliefs based on where the evidence leads you then you are not following science, period.
The thing you are missing is that the "missing mass" isn't observable on the scale of the solar system. It's missing on the scale of large scale galactic structures -- i.e. lots and lots of galaxies. When we look at those structures, we can't figure out how they got that way unless there is a whole bunch more mass than there looks to be. Apart from that, we know nothing.

People speculate that maybe there is some weird particle that we can't see in any other way than through looking at the mass of these large (really, really, really ridiculously large) structures. But is there any of it in the solar system? In our galaxy? Nobody knows. Does it hang out between galaxies? Between galaxy clusters? Does it even really exist? Nobody knows.

You're just jumping way, way, way too far down the way ;-) Literally, dark matter could be anything -- even a misunderstanding about how the universe works. That's what's interesting about it.
I've been an student assistant at Epitech. The truth is, some are OK but some are ridiculously good, and when I say good they are nowhere near occasional programmer or engineer skillset, they excel in a lot of fields, are able to switch up and learn tech in about 3 days and be very good at it, they learn constantly and have been exposed to innovation research daily. Most of my friends ended up working at Google or getting bought out by Google (Flat, or some of my friends that currently work at GG, most of the normies work in UK) - more importantly they do what they want.

Tbh, I don't know how you could impress an Epitech student that has been able to keep his feet on the ground. It happens that some of us get lost in their dark research garage (Hei !) and loose it up for a few, but that usually a period until they figure out what's wrong.

Thing is, most of us have been exposed to those crazy good dudes (Hei, i'll write my compiler day 1), (or i'll just make a game on my free time month 2) and steadily we got very very hard to impress.

Tough from how the friends have evolved, I assure you we are very concerned by correct resilient architecture.

It just happens of who you end up working with.

It is not "one fact", it's a whole string of evidence (as partly explained by the article). The evidence strongly supports the dark matter theory and the evidence has consistently eliminated every single other theory attempting to explain the phenomena.
Not a dumb question, but obviously they've thought of that:

Yeah, chrome doesn't do anything with RSS. I was responding to you saying that this is part of "the absolute core a browser has to deliver", but if the most popular browser around doesn't do it then I don't see how you can argue that this will be a major failure of Firefox

Also I don't agree that this necessarily can't be done a webextension. For instance you can have add-ons like this: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/jsonview/ so I assume the same would be true for RSS

It's not that hyperbolic at all, actually.

But I was asking a question of ethics, not fact.

Of course it's legal. They have a BAA with Google.

Do people think companies that deal with PHI have to build every service in house...? Run their own data centers? Build their own backhaul connections to their users?
In Germany, the combination (Name, Address, Date of Birth) is assumed to identify you uniquely.

For authentification you just show your ID card that contains both your name, date of birth, and your official address. If you move you have to notify authorities and get an official sticker on your ID card showing the new address. By law, everyone is required to own either an ID card or a passport to be able to identify yourself in front of police or a court.

Of course various governemnt agencies have their own identification numbers for you, for example you have a tax id that you will have to share with your bank, and another id for social security that you will have to share with your employer, etc. But those are just for reporting to various government databases and are never a form of authentification. You first prove who you are with your ID card, then you exchange id numbers for relevant systems.

(our IDs also have numbers, but you can get a new ID card as often as you want and nobody outside the government can do anything useful with it. We had some bad experiences with government databases, so it's now a number of unconnected smaller databases)
Reading the conclusion of 'Decision against the operation'

> In the end, convinced that the political risks outweighed the possible benefits, he decided against the intervention.

I understand that it's convenient to question strategic decisions such as this in hindsight. However , it would be interesting to speculate what could have been the outcome of the wars i.e. First Indochina and Vietnam , had the operation been approved by the President, having turned the tide of the battle of Dien Bien Phu.
>If you're confident and in fact the entire industry is moving in the wrong direction, then you should probably invest as much as you can afford in an airline that is offering simpler plans.

I think people should be heavily criticized for making arguments like this -- it's entirely done in bad faith. You're presenting a fairy tale, a piece of advice that is completely un-actionable for a huge majority of people. What is this person supposed to do, when

(a) No such airline exists

(b) What sort of marginal impact can <$1000 (presumably the most that can be afforded for this by the majority of people) even have in achieving actual change?

If anything, complaining about it to others (online or elsewhere) probably has more efficacy than doing the above.
We can detect it, gravitationally. The Bullet cluster is pretty incontrovertible evidence that dark matter exists.

It's detecting it through other interactions that's proving extremely difficult.
This is the "MACHO" (massive compact halo objects) theory, which has been tested and disproven. The missing mass can't be gas or dust clouds because that would have certainly observational traces which we have looked for and don't exist. It can't be planetoids because that would cause a frequency of gravitational micro-lensing of stars in other galaxies that we do not observe.
>Why is Forbes writing about it now?

The general public doesn't know this, it's a very slow news week, or both.
People also balked during the transition away from FTP. SSHing into servers is precisely the thing you want to get away from whether it's to change code or to hotfix your nginx.conf or to do a quick apt-get install.

Doesn't mean that we don't need SSH ever, but 99% of the time it's something we use because we're too lazy to setup automation.

I reckon you're using open-source here to mean self-hosted, but that doesn't really change anything. For example, the reason every small company I've worked at didn't have a way to analyze their logs/stderr and coincide them with other events for debugging was because they didn't, not because they couldn't.
I'm inclined to believe a lot of this is for money laundering or parking cash in other countries as a store of value (and I'm admittedly biased after the NYT article about Trump's work). Maybe even buying a place for a rich son/daughter to go to university or just experience US culture, or escape danger in their home country.

Local governments have a interest to not crack down on this in the form of taxes and fees associated with their real estate laws.

Relevant counterpoint: http://www.skepticalob.com/2018/03/what-if-c-sections-are-be....

The article doesn’t actually say why C sections are bad, it presupposes that fact, and assumes that rising C section rates must indicate some sort of “epidemic.”
Sure, but all data we have rather points out to some undetected matter than problems with the theory of gravitation. The article shows several measurements which would be well explained with particles we did not detect yet.
Because white male culture is broader than just sci-fi? I'm making the point that both one specific culture means monoculture, and I think pointing out that it's white male is important. Techbroism is a thing. White men aren't incapable of empathy, but it's very much more difficult to address a diverse audience from one fixed viewpoint.

I'm surprised C-section rates are higher among wealthier, education women. I would assume educated women are more likely to understand the risks associated with C-sections.
I'm sure they have a BAA with Google, which holds Google to the same HIPAA PHI handling requirements.

Short answer: 10^-18 as much as the mass of the sun, 1 proton-mass per 3 cubic centimeters. Not enough to be detected gravitationally - it just gets swamped.

Interesting article. I also thought that encouraging cesarean sections was something obstetricians did often to avoid the time spent waiting for delivery. However, in my training I witnessed quite the opposite. My resident and attending physicians were very cautious with going forward with cesarean sections, and would do whatever they could to continue with vaginal delivery when the mother wanted that, and also encouraged patients that wanted cesarean to consider vaginal delivery.

Obviously this is one hospital, but it did help me not be as cynical of the profession, and will probably help serve as a reminder to do what's best for my future patients.
"If they wanted to" shouldn't really be part of any sane security policy.

If 'X' is genuinely dangerous, then always deal with X as if it were actually dangerous[1]; if X is however not dangerous, stop pretending.

[1] for instance the policy of confiscating >100ml bottles of liquid at airport security "because reasons" then have agents simply stuff these dangerous liquids into one large bin and leave them there at the screening point for hours.

We've already detected on type of dark matter: neutrinos. A single neutrino can travel through a light-year of solid lead (if such a thing existed) and only have a 50% chance of interacting. Every day something like 10^20 neutrinos pass through your body (most from the Sun) without doing a thing. So weakly interacting particles are not completely unknown, we already have examples of them. Dark matter is just some particle we haven't discovered yet (again unsurprising because we know our theory of particle physics is incomplete) which is even less interacting and possibly more massive than neutrinos.
No it doesn't depend on how you see things.

You can disagree with Obama, even about facts, but you were not oppressed. Trump claimed Obama was a terrorist. Yet, he was not oppressed.

For crying out loud Trump was invited the correspondence dinner when Obama was in office. He was rightly mocked, but he was not disappeared :)

But let's get real there were people in America who faced real oppression in the 60'ties civil rights movements. Bernie was one of those, and many of them served as elected politicians later.
Hah. First experienced this as a kid when helping out at my mom's jewellery shop for the first time. Someone bought something and I had to calculate how much cash to give them. I don't know why I wasn't using a cash register, can't recall. Anyway, I'm really good at math, yeah? One of the best in my grade, yeah? Then why couldn't I calculate how much money I needed to give the guy? I did this kind of subtraction problem in my head all the time. But I froze. I felt so stupid at the time. :) STOP STARING AT ME, I'LL GIVE YOUR MONEY, JUST WAIT A SECOND!!!! :) Funny thing is that he probably wasn't judging me at all, it was all just in my head.
The simplest “proof” of dark matter - Kepler’s Laws dictate that objects with smaller orbits (closer to center) move faster (in terms o fangular velocity). Our solar system works like that. Our galaxy doesn’t - its spiral shape indicates that the angular velocity varies minimally with radius.
Yeah, like renaissance rediscovering Roman and Greek tech.

Those things are fixed at purchase though aren't they? I don't pay a lower sales tax in a different state because I live somewhere else, and I don't pay less sales tax on a book if I buy it in the same transaction as something with a different levy. Europe has VAT on most items, but the rates are different based on what you're buying, where you're buying it and where you reside, but we manage it

The POS system knows how to calculate the cost of each item, why can't they just out that on the sticker instead,.

Maybe our assumptions about how momentum, gravity and inertia work are incomplete. General and special relativity describe it as a warping of spacetime, but while I've read all sorts about the equations, I have not yet read any description of how that phenomenon physically manifests (I'm not a physicist). Maybe relativity works well enough, but doesn't describe things completely, just like Newton's laws weren't complete and were superseded by relativity.
Understood, thank you for the explanation.

I think I should have named it "bad at starting a business" or something similar. My intention was to help founders of startups or self-funded projects, I don't know much about the dynamics in larger companies.
I don't think any reasonable academic wants anyone to actually use the prototype of their file system with irreplaceable (i.e. personal) data. Perhaps requiring a patched kernel is this project's way of making sure that that doesn't happen.
With the birth of my son, we switched obgyn's because she basically told us it was pretty certain we'd have a c section, because she didn't have time to wait. We switched doctors and it was the first question we asked when interviewing prospective doctors. This was in 2000.
I like how we have an article explaining the rationale behind dark matter and the scientific principles that lead to the conclusion that it exists, but most of the threads here are simple declarations that no, they must all simply be wrong or not considering some simple alternative.

Can people maybe, just maybe not assume that scientists are idiots or, as once dead commenter puts it, charlatans?

If you disagree with the consensus, then offer some alternative more convincing (and more useful for civil and interesting discussion) or dispute the article rather than than just writing it all off as "fake science."

It doesn't really work. Overwhelmingly the evidence points to mass, which is gravitationally affected by other mass, and nothing else.

I know the mind rebels against the notion of invisible matter, but is it really so much more implausible than the invisible spookiness of gravity to begin with? If the scientific evidence points that way, your monkey-brain intuitions do not provide a reliable veto.
