Whoops! That was incorrect indeed. A very unfortunate typo because it happens to be a favourite equation of many people, including me.

Thank you for reporting this. I have fixed it now.

The ways of Netflix are strangely resemble 1940-1950 communism times when people could have been jailed or executed for seemingly innocent joke that some party member managed to interpret as an insult to the Beloved Leader (be that Stalin, Ceausescu or Bierut) or for violating a flavor-of-the-day interpretation of Stalinism-Leninism-Marxism absurdity.

Luckily they just fire people, not execute them.
Honestly I don't know why this should even be on HN. Disclaimer: I don't live in Prague.
Basically anyone because the point here is to get ANO out of the government.

No radicals though. They're moderate left, but they cooperate with parties on the right as well. Greens in the Czech Republic are radical communists.

Ah.

> That's not how voting should work. Any vote cast must be secret. Or what's to prevent any one group from blackmailing you (or any other voter)?

Fair point, but they do not have to maintain the association with the voting keys. Derivative keys can be signed without it imho.

Dont be naive, things like this happen already even with paper votes. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulgarian_train

I agree that's a problem that needs consideration, but we've solved many such issues before. There are quite a few ID, banking, authentication, etc. apps running quite fine and well on consumer devices.

E-voting is a general term that describes methods of voting that involve electronics. While some solutions are indeed terrible, that doesn't mean all are.
A peeve of mine for sure. Python does it, go does it, java does it some extent.

Pure capitalism relies on government to enforce contracts.

There's no capitalism without government, that would be anarchy.

Whether it's big government (with welfare, education, etc) or not, is another thing. But capitalism, pure or not, requires police, army, courts, and so on, and by extension, a tax system to fund their operation.

Else, it's just might that enforces anything it wants, and there are no contracts other than between people of equal power (since the more powerful can just steal whatever people with less power have).

1.) Running a website that allows other people to upload their own software for others to download is hardly comparable to stealing a rental car. He can hardly be said to have "had the claimant's property on his premises".

For comparison, Github takes an equally "laissez-faire approach to policing content on its site". Should the creators of Github be raided, questioned for 9 hours, passwords handed over, and the website taken offline, just because a user uploads something that a megacorp doesn't like?

2.) "I'm sending an independent lawyer and technical experts appointed by this court to accompany you" - they are actually appointed by the claimant, not the court.
"then an appropriate defence policy in response could state that no traffic to or from the US or ally is allowed to enter a China Telecom PoP in the US or in the ally's networks"

This wasn't a case of whistleblowing though. It is mounting up to be a case of industrial espionage using a media company posing as "bloggers" to disseminate stolen private correspondence using innuendo and fabrications* with a view to gain illicit advantage over a competitor.

So far every accusation stemming from the stolen documents has failed to prove any criminal wrongdoing and, this is the important bit, every single legal case raised so far in multiple courts has been either dismissed or ruled in favour of Benfica.

* Example: this is a ruling from the Portuguese Media regulator making clear that the bloggers produced fake documents and altered dates and details to make allegations not supported by the stolen documents, so making the case that this is not whistleblowing but an attempt to discredit a business with lies.

Poor choice of wording on my end, I was coming up with the idea on the fly. I'm sure someone else can come up with something better with a bit more thinking :)

The association between vote keys and personal info does not need to exist. ID keys have to be issued by the gov but the vote signature keys can be derived from them and/or signed by a 3rd party like an NVO or a combination of govs/NVOs.
Pure capitalism specifically doesn't rely on government with anything - even courts and enforcement would be private. It's much more complex, I recommend you to read something by Ludwig von Mises, he answers what you said on top of saying why it'd be more fair etc. And yes, pure capitalism is anarchy but that doesn't mean there would not be order.

Of course these terms were redefined a lot during the last 100 years. We might simply misunderstand each other because each of us uses a different definition made by another person and taught by another school of thought as well as different university/professor.

Anyways even if there was a government and law enforcement etc, in pure capitalism having more money would not help, government would be strictly neutral and the civil law minimal. If the government helps a company it's definitely not pure capitalism regardless of what the exact definition is.

Vegetables are nutrient-dense - no question there. And I was on a mostly vegetarian diet when I did competition bicycling in my youth, simply because I just couldn't get enough nutrients any other way.
The problem with a pure vegetarian diet is only that it doesn't cover all your needs, or not completely at least. The trace elements again. If you eat enough of it, no problem in general. If you eat like a bird you may have a problem. And may need some kind of supplements.

Let's start by dialing back the ridiculous DRM, which makes it a lot more convenient to pirate content, rather than pay for the DRM-laden official releases.
On the contrary, I think as phrased that's a "break the internet" policy, especially if more than one country does it - what if China asks for a reciprocal version?
We will see if they will attack him as it happened in Rome with a similar new major from outside (5 stelle). There was a huge disinfo campaign to discredit her.

Not only ANO is worried, also all the established parties have all incentives to throw dirt at him to keep the pirates out of more important political roles.

This is very exciting news.
I can use Google for piracy, should that be blocked as well? Search for "NameOfMovie watch online free" and either the top links will be just that or the "DMCA Blocked" link at the bottom will be another website containing exactly that.

Should we block Google?

If not, under what situation would we block other sites? They also just 'link to content' rather than host it themselves.

Yes, TeXMe does it. Here is a minimal example:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<script>window.texme = { useMathJax: false, protectMath: false }</script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/texme"></script><textarea>

### Atomic Theory

Atomic theory is a scientific theory of the nature of matter, which
states that matter is composed of discrete units called atoms. It began
as a philosophical concept in ancient Greece and entered the scientific
mainstream in the early 19th century when discoveries in the field of
chemistry showed that matter did indeed behave as if it were made up of
atoms.

Right now, it requires a few more lines of HTML code to disable MathJax related processing. I am planning to add a simpler mechanism later, so that something like merely appending "?markme" to the TeXMe URL in the <script> tag is enough to set it to Markdown-only mode. If anyone has a better idea regarding this, please let me know or send a pull request.

As someone who has written a few of LaTeX documents over the years, I'd like to point out that rendering TeX math does not constitute a TeX document at all.

What LaTeX truly shines at, is typography. Yet a bunch of people seem to think that it's only a way to write math.

This is an interesting project. It just bums me out because I thought it was a TeX distribution for the web. I'd remove "TeX" from the name to avoid confusion.

> these debates have begun to look more like a prelude to the post-truth era in which society as a whole is presently condemned to live. The past decade has seen a precipitous rise not just in anti-scientific thinking

Enough of this nonsense. Scepticism is a cornerstone of science itself. Perhaps if the "scientific consensus" had not led to the disasters of 2008 in USA and the EU crisis, people would be less skeptical. It would be nice if the NYtimes writers stopped rubbing their intellectual superiority all over us and instead think a little deeper about the rise of skepticism. Oh, and let's remember that, despite their claims, their walled garden doesn't hold a monopoly to the truth.

> Latour believes that if scientists were transparent about how science really functions — as a process in which people, politics, institutions, peer review and so forth all play their parts — they would be in a stronger position to convince people of their claims.

I 'm not sure if this would lead to stronger trust, considering the amount of politics inherent in the processes of funding and publishing.
Having tried, it's a little more difficult than applying a bit more thinking.

Specifically, the criteria that you can't trace a voter to a vote but you need to ensure a voter only has one vote (or at most one if voting isn't mandatory) is really hard to reconcile.

I also happen to believe a way might be found but by handwaving "zero knowledge proof" in the same way that you're handwaving blockchain.

If anyone from Netflix is reading this and needs to hire someone for the purposes of firing them a year later, I'm your man. I am no ordinary sacrificial hire.

I will work with you to create the narrative you need to showcase your true, natural leadership and management abilities. You know you've got what it takes; you just haven't had the opportunity to demonstrate it. My job will be to make sure that you come out of it shining, with the enhanced respect of your superiors, subordinates and peers. People will nod sagely when they look at you, clearly seeing your senior management potential. If you need any of your peer competitors to come out of it looking bad, that's part of the service; hey, the very fact that you're using my services makes it clear that you are smarter than them. You deserve this.

I won't name names (confidentiality of course is part of the service), but let me assure you that some of them are already doing this to you. There's no crime in levelling the playing field; making things even again is the right thing to do and the only way to ensure that your natural innate talents can be properly recognised to win you the promotions you deserve.

Obviously this is a premium service; we can work together to make sure that I appear to be worth every penny of the top flight salary you offer; part of the narrative will be how I appeared to be such a great applicant and a perfect hire but it was your leadership skills, your intuition, your deep insights that uncovered this employee's true inadequacies where everyone else had seen an illusion.

I am not a battery expert, but my understanding is that the most significant way that batteries degrade is through the heat production when charging near capacity (say 80-100%). This is why high end laptops like macbooks or thinkpads have battery management hardware/software that never automatically charges the battery to 100%.

For instance, based on recommendations by TLP, my thinkpad internal battery only charges to 60% and external to 75%.

I'm a bit confused, I never had any battery die like that on me. I am currently using almost 5-year old T440s which has two batteries (internal and removable) and they are both still about 80% of their initial capacity. My laptop currently says it will last 8h on fully charged batteries which in my experience is fairly accurate.

I am using this laptop every day at work and at home. I am lugging it to every meeting, I am lounging on the sofa trying to get up to date with news and email. It has VMWare Workstation installed on it running at least one vm with Ubuntu at any point in time.

The ONLY two rules I follow is to 1) never allow battery to run very low and 2) make sure the laptop never uses a lot of power by trying to remove the culprit whenever fan starts to spin without apparent reason.

The laptop is on AC power as much as possible, whenever possible. I always alow it to charge to 100%. Whenever laptop is less than 100% I will make sure to connect it to AC as soon as practically possible.

Now, X230 is another premium laptop from Lenovo and it was debuted less than 2 years before T440s. It looks improbable to me that the difference in longevity can be attributed to some advancement made in that short time. I think taking good care of laptop (not letting it run hot or run out of juice completely) is much more significant effect here.

This. I always looked at Flash as better Java Applets. They filled the gap that Applets were intended to address but Flash was a much easier to work with.

Flash, while full of issues, was sort of a prototype of functionality that people wanted built into browsers. It took a while for standards to catch up, because standards move slow.

At the same time, people were motivated to make it happen because of all of those terrible things about Flash.

We can all thank Steve Jobs for delivering the death blow to Flash to really force the issue.

Cerebellum can be involved in many things and malfunctioning cerebellum can cause problems, but it's not necessary.

People whose cerebellum is destroyed by disease or cleanly removed do fine for the most part. Their fine motor functions are not as before, but otherwise they seem fine. Rest of the brain seems to be able to compensate for cerebellum's involvement in other things.

1) and this brings us back to my original point - we can sit here and argue that the court should have never issued such order in the first place. But because it did, I want to see it carried out(or maybe let me put it this way - I don't want to see the power of search warrants neutered, just because courts sometimes misuse them. They are hugely helpful tool for law enforcement, and we should definitely work against courts issuing them frivolously or under pressure from corporations).

I think it’s fine to have generic .com, .org, .net and so on. These are useful given there are multinational companies, organisations, etc. so there’s no reason to mess with that.

What I think is really inappropriate is that .gov, .edu and .mil are US-only. These should either be opened up to all countries, or phased out.

I think for these particular ones, phasing out would be the best way - i.e, no new registrations, every domain owner gets matching (edu,mil,gov).us domains, and then requiring them to only serve redirects to the new domains and not content after a few months.
