> Does everyone who works at Google go to Burning Man? Of course they don't.

And if anyone in a group meeting for work purposes doesn't like that venue, then they can say so.

> The only venue where the set of participants can actually meet the standard 'all' is the business itself or a business event.

No, that's the only venue if you want to restrict the agency of all the adults involved. This isn't necessary unless you think people are too mentally weak to voice their opinions.

> The canonical example from history is men getting business done while playing golf at the 'club'. Restrictions on the club (like men only in Atlanta) or ability of other employees to participate (women, disabled) disenfranchised those employees with respect to the kinds of decisions that were getting made on the golf course.

Hate to break it to you, this is still how a lot of business is conducted. There's no indication at all that this is "bad for the company".

If one of the people involved were a woman, or were disabled in some way, then they are one of the participants that can voice their preference for a venue, and clearly some venues simply won't work for them. I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but people develop the ability to negotiate and compromise by the time they're 10 years old.

There's no need to establish a nanny state where venues that disadvantage those that aren't even participants are ruled out from the outset.

> In the study, 76 college students were deprived of food for three hours and deprived of their smartphones for two hours while they studied. They were then allowed to use a computerized game, which was similar to a slot machine, to earn time to use their smartphones or 100-calorie portions of snack food.

No food for 3 hours isn't "deprivation", it's a normal school day.
I was suggestion official extensions, so you could not install or disable them, the reason I mentioned some could be put directly in the browser is if the same functionality can't be done by a pure extension or it would be much efficient directly in the browser.

I completely agree that you should be able to disable/unintall Mozilla extensions and replace them if you want with different ones(maybe you know of a better reader mode or a better ad blocker extension)

In fact this extension may not even be installed , just be part of Mozilla code base so any update will be reviewed
> I think the thing that people really like about Elon Musk is that he just doesn't care about the interpersonal social status dynamics at play with his position in the world

At least from what you've quoted, I have a hard time seeing your point. Seems to be a fairly conservative conversation from a 47 year-old entrepreneurial billionaire physicist, and an interviewer. She asks questions and he gives her straightforward answers with no fluff.

While I would agree that he (clearly) doesn't play by the rules of mortals (how could you, and get to where he's gotten?), I'd hardly call this a matter of he just doesn't care about the interpersonal social status dynamics at play
In what ways could JS be limited to preclude such attacks? (E.g. no JIT compilation, cache flush after every opcode, etc.).
> In the case of student loans, the answer to the second question is "the U. S. government will pay it, in cash".

No, it's not. While private student loans are still offered (sometimes, by predatory scammy for-profit schools themselves), none of them for quite a few years have been government guaranteed.

The former government guaranteed loan program has for some time had exactly one lender by law, the federal government itself.
> his is the conclusion that multiple western intelligence agencies come to, including American, British, French, Dutch and German

Well, isn't that a bit self serving.

> Assange and WikiLeaks editorialize, curate, and time releases, usually for political goals.

As far as I've seen they curate so that people don't get in harm's way (see Bradley Manning's dump). They do time their release to get the biggest bang for the buck. I don't even understand why that's a criticism. Products from apple/google/samsung are released in time for xmas to get the biggest reception. NYT doesn't publish scoop on Nov 7th - they do it before the election. You cannot be serious with this criticism. As far as editorializing, I've seen very minimal amount of that (namely Collateral Murder data dump), but even with that the entire video was released, so you could make up your own mind.

> this doofus has no credibility

Disagree. His credibility will continue to be high as long as what he publishes is the truth.
> They'd rather buy the cheapest ticket, suck it up for a couple hours, and grouse about how bad air travel is afterwards.

Truer words were never spoken. I had to book a Spirit flight home unexpectedly, and while I'd heard nothing but bad things about them, I found it a perfectly acceptable experience. Of course they charge for everything -- the ticket was $100 cheaper than United. Where do people think that discount comes from?
It seems that for 'personal' devices (i.e. laptops/desktops), the biggest vulnerability here is probably actually javascript.

You can be smart about what software you run, but most people don't use the web without JS.

Maybe it's time for javascript to be 'off by default'.

It takes a certain level of maturity and nuance to understand that people are complex, multidimensional beings of often contradictory impulses and principles, and as such, one’s academic contributions can be separated from whose ass they grabbed. Sadly, maturity and nuance were killed and buried years ago.

Nix points the way to what Docker could have been. I don't think it's there yet, but it's getting better. Guix is, to me, even more interesting (and even less "there yet"), in that it doesn't use a NIH language, and it's focused on software freedom.

The biggest difference between 2020 and past elections is: who even stands a chance of beating Trump? His opposition party is in shambles and I can't think of a single solid candidate who would do well running against him. Sanders was the closest thing to a viable opponent for him and the Democrats nipped his then-rapidly-rising support in the bud by going with HRC instead.

The Democrats have become "The F Trump Party," obstructionist in their own words... but support for Trump is basically at an all-time high, so this isn't a very effective strategy.

Theoretically the right candidate could come along, powerful, charismatic, and well-versed in Trump's style of politics, and "put him in his place" ...but somehow I have a hard time seeing that happen, looking around at the potential Democrat 2020 candidates today. In fact I think there's a nontrivial chance of a third party viral literal meme candidate becoming more popular than the Democrat candidate in 2020.

If anyone can name some potential candidates they see as viable I'd be interested in looking into them if I haven't already, but like I said, for the time being 2020 looks like a completely one-sided fight.
Intel has done nothing it can stand behind since the pentium 3. That chip was amazing. They had to dead end P4 development and go back to a P3 base to develop core. Now I betcha they will now have to dead end core and go back to P3 again. It could be competitive with a die shrink, clock boost (3.5Ghz P3? drooool), a newer instruction set (I'm sure it's fast enough to decode, and intel is good at adding accelerators), and then running a ton of them on a single socket like AMD is doing. Maybe pair it with some optane for instant boot or some gimick. It'd sell.
I too, am a millennial. I grew up being told that the only serious option after high school was to go to college. That's just how life worked. I believed it, as most my family went to college immediately after high school.

Not only did my family perpetuate this idea, but my middle class suburban high school did as well. Our guidance counselors actively were involved with the local state universities. They spent a lot of time shoving the idea of attending college down your throat. Maybe they only did this with the higher performing students. I even was going on college tours in 10th grade, through programs at my high school. At the time, I really didn't think there was another option aside from college after high school.

I personally have a love-hate relationship with Trump. He’s bombastic, obnoxious, and annoying. But he gets things done, and I have to say I really do like the chest thumping America-first attitude and perspective on policy.
Student loan debt can't be discharged by bankruptcy. Lending in this situation is decently low risk. You're basically rent seeking with humans instead of land. Once you've got one, you can siphon off their excess productivity for decades. You'll get your money back in the long run.

This is one of the few colorizing algorithms that I've seen which creates desirable output. The images really do look like old colorized images. I wonder how the authors dealt with the differences in spectral sensitivity of their source material. There's clearly some orthochromatic plates or film being used. The image of the Seneca native 1908 is a good example. Notice how dark the field is on the patch on her skirt. With orthochromatic emulsions, the patch could have been either black or red since the emulsion isn't sensitive to red. It's most sensitive to blue, which is part of the reason skies look so white in old photos.
Acquiring points is simple. Redeeming them requires a non-trivial amount of work.

There are so many fewer options when you're not a larger company with group healthcare buying power. A middle class family of 4, to get the worst healthcare available on the marketplace (i.e. 7k deductible/max per person, very limited doctors) may pay 1300/mo from what I've seen (more than doubled from a couple years ago). Large employer subsidized healthcare from places like Aetna give better rates but don't offer individual plans ([0] "we don't offer individual health plans at this time").

Wild apples can be edible (and it's not like they're poisonous, just not tasty), but, yeah, they're usually best for just making jam. (They have lots of pectin, so they're a good adjunct for things -- blackberries, for example -- that don't.)

Apples are a bit special in that they don't grow true to seed; that's the reason for the grafting. If you plant a Braeburn, you don't get Braeburn fruit.

Not OP, but have had to buy insurance as a freelancer before.

Do you have a family? Health insurance prices are far, far higher if you have a family.

The type of coverage you can by as an individual is also inferior to those you get access to at large companies, so it can be harder to get in-network coverage.
I believe for public universities the cost driver has been an increase in administrators and a decrease in funding per student.
> Of course perhaps SMT can in fact be fixed for this without a wholesale tossing in which case it'll just be a universal hardware revision somewhere down the line.

There's a very simple solution here. Don't schedule two threads with different trust domains on different SMT threads on the same core. No need to change any hardware, no need to disable anything, just accept (as has been known for at least a decade) that there is very likely to be a side channel attack if you look hard enough when SMT is involved.

Agreed. She always seems to me to be far more interested in herself than in the person she's interviewing. Previously I thought it was runaway narcissism, but I think you may have nailed it in saying she doesn't do her research. Perhaps everything is phrased as "Well when I did this...how does that relate to you", because she didn't prepare and is just vamping. (Good old Hanlon's Razor...)

Standards are required for lowered barriers to trade - lack of standards are what cause people to raise barriers in the first place.

For example, take labour standards. Without common agreement on labour standards, it's relatively easy for one country to undercut another by permitting mistreatment of their labour force. The response will either be to lower labour standards as well (meaning the result is no net gain in terms of market share, but a whole lot of labour in a worse position), or put in place tariffs or other trading restrictions to protect the local labour force.

Thus common agreement on some level of labour standards is what permits lowered barriers to trade. It prevents beggar-thy-neighbour situations that make the majority of people worse off.

It's similar for environmental standards, food standards, product quality, intellectual property including trademarks and PDOs and PGIs that simulate them for traditional producers.

The EU single market wouldn't be possible without lots of consensus on standards. Remove the enforced harmonization of standards, and the market doesn't work.

(The EU's growth in centralized power via the single market resembles in many ways the growth in US federal power due to the Commerce Clause. It definitely has dangers when market regulation runs ahead of democratic consent. I personally think there is a European polis which understands our position in the world, but I also don't think that polis is a majority. Issues that drive a wedge between the polis and the rest - most especially antipathy towards immigration - is the biggest strategic weakness the EU has, geopolitically.)

Not sure why you are being downvoted. That part of the article is indeed disingenuous (I'm not sure whether it's sloppy or purposely misleading). Of course the 60% reduction is a relative reduction in infection rates.

In fact, the "absolute decrease [of] only 1.31%" claimed by the article, if anything, is misleading, because that number (representing 60% of the 2.49%) is over a certain small amount of time, and therefore will only grow larger as time passes.
