Who is downvoting this guy? Monopoly on use of force... that doesn't belong to the state. If you see a man raping a woman.. you can probably knock him out.

As for borders.. they are not immoral. Illegal immigration benefits people good at illegal activities: criminals. These criminals rape, murder, rob and kidnap their "customers".

"Mexican Police Helped Cartel Massacre 193 Migrants, Documents Show"
https://www.npr.org/2014/12/22/372579429/mexican-police-help...

If someone said to me "hey, we can go make a lot more money, but we have an decent chance of being raped, kidnapped, robbed, or murdered", and I'd say, nah, I'll stay here.

The rape numbers are now more like 30%, but that is still not worth it, not advisable. I'd like to see a wall just so people stop trying to do this dangerous activity, which benefits raping, murderous cartels.

Many women get stuck in prostitution rings in Mexico because they are tricked into debt, which they then have to pay off. They are not Mexican citizens, so they can't go to the police, and they never make it to America.

We don't have to demonize the illegal immigrants, but the people who are facilitating the illegal immigration are demonic.. raping, murdering, robbing their "customers".

Trump knew this in 2015. He was referring to the "80% of central american women are raped when crossing illegally" article when he announced and said "they're bringing crime, there are rapists". Here he references the actual article.

Figured it out! Thanks,
What confuses me most here is that the ethics of the WSJ, as defined by the beliefs of owner Rupert Murdoch, run counter to everything Apple professes to support. I don't know why they would support WSJ and not a more unbiased newspaper.
The day I took delivery of my 2016 Model X with AP 1.0, Tesla announced AP 2.0. A friend of mine immediately ordered a Model X with AP 2.0 and rubbed it in my face.

For the entire next year, my AP 1.0 (which is non-Tesla technology -- Mobileye rocks) had no trouble doing adaptive cruise control and lane assist. Meanwhile his AP 2.0 would brake suddenly and swerve all over the place. It took a full year of OTA updates before his AP 2.0 was finally on-par with the functionality that I had the whole time. Of course, by then Tesla pulled a "we're sorry, but the princess is in another castle" and came out with AP 2.5.

Now this kind of stuff doesn't matter to me. I got tired of that company's shit and have pulled out of the Teslasphere entirely. I'm now driving a non-Tesla EV, and I'll never look back. I'm also letting my government representatives know that they should support a common EV charging standard and keep Tesla so-called "self-driving" shit off public roads.
Your problem with the Dell was likely its Nvidia GPU. Even if you aren't using it, the Linux drivers seem to leave it "on". You have to actually unload or never load the drivers.

Nature is hardly the top of the crust these days with regards to academic oversight.

I can recall quite easily that a while back they published an article confirming ESP, and then refused to publish a replication of the same paper stating no results.

Because the first one sells issues and the second one doesn't.
Sounds like that could easily be a Chrome extension, though?

Say, a whitelist for Youtube. In instances where Youtube recommendations fail, they'll just see a black thumbnail/ no text, and won't click it. If they do, can just block the playing of the video too. It will teach them skills with finding what they want online, etc, while you're at it.

I'm guessing this is modern ABC Kids too, because a decade or so ago, ABC Kids had some oddly dark stuff that's stuck with me for a while now...

Your way's probably sleeker, especially if it's hooked up to a NAS + XBMC or something of that sort, though :)
Syntactic sugar is the important part here.

You can always pass an object and handle defaults and default merging within the function body, sure.

I use JavaScript a ton and I do love object spread and array destructuring. But writing function signatures is still very clumsy.
Marketing?

Because consoles offer literally nothing over desktops for that, and schools, libraries, etc already have desktops?

As a former Slashdotter, I've seen this joke on every single article about "nanotubes".
>but that every way you can cut up demographics (age, race, sex, nationality) will have the same bell curve of talent.

No. There is not data to support this belief, and the problem becomes when people expect this result and make rules to create this outcome.
> AGENTS REPRESENT THE SELLER. They do NOT have your interests in mind.

Absolutely not true. Buyer's Agents represent the BUYER and have a legal obligation to act in the best interest of the Buyer.

> They don't have to mention this unless you ask directly.

Again, you are mistaken. The Seller and the Seller's Agent are required by law to disclose any known material latent defects in writing...or risk litigation after closing.

The reason I got my real estate license was to bypass the outrageous fees and my lack of trust of Realtors. But in doing so, I've come to realize that Realtors do bring a certain level of ethics to an industry which is extremely prone all types of shenanigans. I imagine without Realtors there would be a lot more litigation since the public is largely unaware of laws regarding disclosures, discrimination, kickbacks, etc.
Just because I can...

I find it interesting that he is inconsistent in his usage of <link>. Some of his markup has a closing slash and some of it doesn't. However, my main gripe, is that the HTML spec has never specified or required a closing slash. While it is allowed, putting that slash there has no meaning, it does nothing, and the spec tells browsers they are to ignore for those reasons.

When I ask why some people insist on putting it there, I get wildly different, unreasonable answers.

"It's just a bad habit I picked up."

How do you pick up a bad habit for something that does not exist?

"I do it so it's XHTML or XML compatible."

Well, you aren't serving it as either XHTML or XML and are very unlikely to do that. In addition, the rest of your HTML is probably not XHTML or XML compatible on top of that.

"The spec does allow it."

It allows it, as I always tell them, due to backwards compatibility with (X)HTML uses in the past, but it also says you're wasting your time and effort. See my comment at the top.

To end this, no HTML specification in the history of the universe has ever stated you need to or should put a closing slash on <link> or <img> or <input> or any other HTML tag and there is no example of such usage anywhere in said documentation either.

Those prices are ridiculous, especially in a time where we should be consuming news from a greater number of different resources, not a select few. I understand that journalists need to be paid, but this is well above and beyond - this is to feed the investors.

I remember hearing that the majority/average person in the US doesn't have $400 spare for an emergency, how on earth are they expected to be able to consume "better" media on this business model? And of course this would encourage those papers to produce material that supports the views of the people who are able to consume it, only further adding to social divides.
>I mean their overpriced

They're literally best in class for the money.
Above-ground parking would be okay, too, but those tend to be dedicated buildings specifically for parking, whereas I'm advocating more for building everything on top of the parking.

I suppose it'd be possible to do that even with above-ground parking, though. First level would be storefronts + the garage entrance, second through Nth levels would be parking, then (N+1)th through (N+M)th levels would be offices and/or residential and/or more retail and/or whatever else.

Blendle is a better option IMO. It's pay-per-article (and you can refund after reading if you believe it to be low quality), so it doesn't lock you into any kind of subscription from a single provider. And they have WaPo, NYT, Time, WSJ...

Articles usually show up there a few days later than in the originating newspaper, but for quality journalism that's usually not an issue, since it takes a lot more to write it to begin with.

Yeah - but they need Mongo (or whatever) to a) exist, and b) be widely enough used to make it worth their while.

Amazon isn't in the business of creating and promoting new software to developers. Not in the way Mongo/Redis/Elastic are.

"Popular things" have to come from somewhere, and my optimistic side kinda hopes that _maybe_ these new "OSS unless you're a cloud provider" licenses will be a way to fund development of software too big and complex and ambitious that it won't ever get started as a "scratch your itch" project. I dunno if that'll pan out. But I'm glad someone is trying.

These types of erosion of civil liberty while increasing the power of the State, is exactly why I don’t rejoice at all this prosecutorial aggression towards Donald Trump. Rather than rejoice that they got extra data from Cohen, it should scare the hell out of people that congressmen would sneak a bill into a budget, permanently eroding civil liberties for us all, simply for some perceived political gain.

Alternatively, look how bad the conspiracy theories are about 9/11 despite video of the planes hitting WTC and Pentagon.

Now imagine that the same unfounded rumors start and sites are barred from displaying the videos so people can "make up their own mind".

There will always be conspiracy theories but hiding the footage, IMHO, will increase it dramatically.

To be clear, it's terrible footage and I think it's good FB, Youtube, and other private sites are choosing to bar it from their platforms.

But I worry that in the long run, if you start doing things like banning any domain that hosts it, you'll feed into some of the worst elements of the internet.
Not sure how it's done in the US, but here, the chef usually asks you if you want wasabi or not (at least at any place a step above conveyor sushi).

In addition, at any decent omakase place (chef decides the menu), the chef will instruct you how to best eat each piece: with or without soy sauce, etc.
Been following AY for a week or so now and I like a lot of his platform. Even if he doesn’t win the democratic nomination, a few of his ideas need to enter the mainstream in order for them to have a chance:

1. Trump is a result of economic pain more than racism, help the working class, don’t vilify them.

2. A lot of people are getting left behind, we should find ways of helping them out, not abandoning them (for instance changing the electoral college so costal cities can determine the course of the country alone)

There’s more stuff too but he’s smart, articulate, and direct. Should be interesting to see the debates.

I support their point of view and agree with their protest, but one reason against this could be the potential politicizing and weaponisation of Wikipedia. Do you want one of the largest collectives of human information to take sides (in any debate) and selectively remove its service?

I think I would prefer a banner or a landing page more as it doesn't introduce any barrier to the information they provide.

The National Socialists were the good guys. It was the Bolsheviks and their allies (US, Britain) who were the true axis of evil! First to firebomb civilians in Germany, first to use atomic weapons on civilians, actually ran death camps during (Bolshevisks) and after the war (Bolshevisks, Eisenhower's POW camps). Even Patton realized the US' error near the end (some believe he was killed for it). Also isn't it interestingly suspect international jewish media was crowing about six million being in danger over a decade before Adolf entered politics?

> Far harder to imagine non-existence, that state of being nothing, so that the most accessible way that it can be envisioned is as a field of black, as being the view when you close your eyes.

Hmm. I think non-existence would be better envisioned by closing one of your eyes, rather than both. Is that blackness on the other side? I can't make a strong case for it but I don't think it is - it's just voidness. But also, I think you can't have black nor it's implied white without an essence by which they appear so non-existence is just voidness. I don't know.
Can someone ELI5 why graphene, defined as "a sheet of carbon just one atomic layer thick", can be sold as a "chip"? Of what use would be a one-atom-thick "chip"?

Also, "graphene-based chips could deliver speeds more than ten times faster than silicon chips" -- wut? The basic reason (I thought) silicon could be used to make integrated circuits is that it is mostly NON-conductive, but can be made conductive in part, so as to form e.g. capacitances, insulated conductors, diodes, etc. But in my ignorance I thought the one thing that graphene has to be, is conductive, completely conductive in all directions. So how can you make the various parts of a circuit in a material that is one big short circuit?

"extreme late-binding"

Perl allows you to do:

$object->$method($arg);

And a special can() method to see if $method exists...returns a usable code reference.

There's even a pretty nutty wildcard way of handling methods/functions that don't exist, as if they do (AUTOLOAD): https://perldoc.perl.org/perlsub.html#Autoloading

Though I've never run into a plausible reason to do any of that.

The NYT is a public company. Its gross margin is 59%. Its operating margin is 11.5%. Its profit margin is 7%. And this is after the NYT grew massively after Trump got elected and isn't guaranteed to last.

Give me a break. The only true thing you said was that journalists need to be paid, and they're a massive expense.
Yes, except practically nobody claims that it's black-and-what. This idea which is under attack (for which James Damore got fired, for example) is that measuring equality by setting 50/50 female-to-male ratio as an ideal doesn't reflect reality, because in general sex differences very likely exist beyond culture, and they logically should lead to different representation in various fields of occupation.
Yep, that's more like it.
Artificial Intelligence Speaks Like Trump
You really need to clarify the pricing quickly. As it is now, if I signed up for the $4.95 offer and it got changed to $8.95 after three months I’d be pissed.
Sounds like a nice improvement. It appears to be a web of trust scenario, where you trust anyone else who is verified. Eventually I'm sure some spammer will break through into the circle. I hope that if there is some spammer penetration (so much money here it's inevitable) every phone company should be able to track back where that last phone call came from and block them then.

That appears to be pretty unobjectionable to me.

They seem to be doing much better than mine! Mine are about a year old, and they seem to run about half of their original life, and I've used them perhaps 2 hours per day. I was a bit surprised at how soon it became apparent they didn't have their original battery life. I could probably listen for about 1.5 hrs now, but they still charge pretty quickly, so I usually just put them back in the case for a few minutes.
I assume Wikipedia is protesting because it directly affects them. I don't see how it's problematic to advocate for themselves sometimes.
> Those prices are ridiculous, especially in a time where we should be consuming news from a greater number of different resources, not a select few.

Leaving aside the comment about pricing, how do you consume more varied news than those "select few"? I read The Economist, NYT and WSJ every morning. Reading several articles (often on the same topic) across all three takes me about an hour. For a while I was trying to read Foreign Policy too but there's just not enough time.

I can only do this because I commute into the city on a relatively quiet train ride. I can't imagine adding another news source to this routine, let alone a bunch of them. What would you do, have a Monday set of sources, a Tuesday set and so on?

While they did an amazing job on improving the framework, compiler, and tools, a few important compatibility features weren't addressed:

- '-M'/'-MF' options support (like in GCC)[2]

- 'MENUEX' menu resource section parsing (like in MSVC)[3]

Also, we recently found a problem[4] while compiling radare2 with 8.0.0 clang-cl for Windows. Hopefully, it will be addressed soon since the tool offers sanitizers support for the Windows platform, which is a blast.
