> Extra-territorial law application is very complex. KP is one of the few places where you can routinely expect to be prosecuted in Australia for breaches overseas. or FGM. Or, more recently the war in Syria but bear with me: do you not also recognize that there is a huge reluctance to try and enforce the law in that last regard? because it turns out simply being somewhere is not neccessarily a good basis to declare you broke the law, noting that few if any of the people seeking to come home took up arms, and specifically took up arms against Australia or her allies.

To be honest, what you have written doesn't seem to be related and/or your point is lost. However, I will try to underline my comment with the following:

If you are issued with a TAR, TAN or TCN and you reside overseas you must comply or face extradition under an extradition treaty - unless you are fortunate enough to reside in a country that does not have an extradition treaty with Australia and that country is unlikely to make deals in secret with the Australian Government. Or, you are fortunate enough to have a secondary citizenship and subsequently renounce your Australian citizenship.

> They also have to serve the request on you. Simply issuing it doesn't make it binding surely? You have to be formally notified.

If you are issued this notice, you are able to refuse under 317ZB and incur 238 penalty units or $49,980 as an individual, or 47,619 penalty units or $9,999,990 as a corporate body. There is no limit to the number of subsequent notices that are able to be issued of the same nature. In reality this means, if it is important enough, the government will continue to issue notices until you comply.

> do we have any indication aside from hypothetically speaking, that a TAR/TAN/TCN has or can be drafted which doesn't include the employer and IPR holder in the notice?

The law stipulates that a person is considered to be a "designated communications provider" under 317C.

See also, all relevant sections detailing: "an employee of a designated communications provider" and "an employee of a contracted service provider of a designated communications provider".

317ZF dictates that disclosure outside of seeking legal council incurs a penalty of 5 years imprisonment.

I'm not sure where you received your information from, but most of what you have said is contradictory to the law that was passed. Have you read the Assistance and Access Bill?

That reddit post you linked to also does its best to avoid focusing on the actual situation. There's no such thing as an "unauthorized" battery. If factories are producing batteries with a default Apple logo (ie to Chinese standards), and he's instructing them to cross it out, that also seems completely legitimate.

Agreed. Considering this is coming so longer after the Snowden revelations I have to believe it means some sort of Plan B has been sorted out and Congress has gotten the okay to outlaw what is soon to be obsolete.
Typically a bank mortgage would be secured by the property, not by other assets of the purchaser. Some (but not all) stocks / options might be restricted from being pledged/liened/hypothecated/etc, so they might not be available for “Loan me $5 million (to buy a house), secured by these shares.”

But because the bank is in the business of making mortgages against property, it won’t consider the shares as security in most cases. It may consider them as positive evidence in favor of one’s ability to service a mortgage, much like it would consider your income as evidence of ability to service the mortgage. It doesn’t have recourse against your income in event of a default.

What do you mean caste is a European concept? Hinduism has the four varnas and Dalits. How are those European concepts? Europeans didn’t invent varnas, the avarna, Hindu purity concepts, or the jatis. The jatis are Islam so for Europeans to have invented them would be quite impressive.

Sibling commenter is correct. The majority of ER visits are actually not emergencies; rather they are frequently used/abused as a convenience (open 24/7) or because payment is not required prior to care due to the unfunded mandate that is EMTALA (debt collectors are a separate discussion).

Easy way is to split your days, no way you are working 16 billable hours 5 days a week, so split your days and set office hours for each client where you are available for ad-hoc meetings. And tell them that you are open to communication outside those hours as well (within reason), but it will be best effort responses. Generally if you are up front they will accept you have other clients to work on, and as long as your billings match what they feel you are doing all is good.

This is how I started mine when I did them, it is normal and totally fair to everyone involved. Just gotta set boundaries for yourself and clients. Clients will abuse you, sometimes intentionally, other times unintentionally, if you do not define boundaries. Like gldev said in his comment, it is easy for work to start spilling into the evenings and weekends in an unhealthy way and then you are burnt out and clients start getting upset if you don't reset expectations quick enough.

Even when my consulting businesses grew I would set full time to clients at 32hrs a week for every resource, with the other 8 hours being used for admin stuff etc. I also charged weekly rates per resource so a little different than hourly time. For any work less than a full week I would do day rates to fill in odd jobs. And we didn't screw clients either, if something took us 20 minutes no one ever saw a bill for those 20 minutes, they would see an invoice, just no charge for the time (typically this happened more with existing clients calling for support after projects completed).
Naively it makes sense, pain is just a sensation, but suffering is more complex. I doubt that we can truly shit off sensitivity to noxious stimuli, but meditation (and maybe some generic factors) seem like a way to manage reactions to that stimuli. Having said that, and skimming the links, I’d guess there’s a limit. A lot of what we’d naively expect to be excruciating is more upsetting and distressing than purely painful. Some things however, like inflammation of the trigemanal nerve, is really a source of intractable pain. I have my doubts that meditation would be of much use in that context, or extreme osteogenic pain.
You're absolutely correct at current moment.

I do three things:

Does it appeal to your sense of justice that within the same society some live opulently, yet others live in constant fear of not having the basic necessities of life? Not only would I say this is unjust, but that it is also unsound and a danger to society itself. The worst qualities of humans emerge when they are fighting for survival.

I'm fine with a system that has wealth inequality, I don't see any way around that and it's great for causing innovative pressure, but I find it hard to justify the fact that some people are deprived the basic necessities of life.

> Wealth isn't distributed, it's created. I mean you can distribute after that but it would be theft.

So are you one of those people that believe taxation is theft? Are you a self-made man? Are you Caesar without Rome? It strikes me as incredibly foolish when people ignore the fact that their success is entirely dependent upon their society.

Did you create your own school, did you create your own language ... are you really that unaware of the great debt you have to others? Without society, you'd be a degenerate caveman, you owe everything you have to it.

Actually, it doesn't strike me as foolish, it strikes me as incredibly useful for rationalizing ones station in life. It must make it easy to walk past the homeless and suffering, feeling like you are innocent and not complicit at all in the silent tragedies the system sustains.

I used to work in a helpdesk at a university. I don't know how many times I had to explain how to interpret the plagiarism scores they would get from the plagiarism program we had. Many times they wanted to trust the simple number in front of them and not do the leg work needed to interpret that score.
These statements are good for guide lines, but there are materials which are long lasting and highly radioactive. When you don't introduce these things as guide lines people will show you the examples where it isn't true (as seen here).

> Almost everything dangerous had since decayed.

This is where I take issue with your comment. Frankly because long lasting isotopes still can be dangerous, even if their levels are low. Excluding the effects of radiation, most of these are heavy metals. With the difficulty of the subject matter I think it is easy for people to pick apart generalizations. The subject matter is just really convoluted and required a high degree of knowledge to even feel like you can understand what scientists are talking about. Plus combine all the fear associated with nuclear.

I think you could reword it as

> Most of the material with high activity has decayed and we're mostly left with long living isotopes that tend to be less dangerous.

I don't understand this point. We don't say that C is memory safe because of the kernel boundary, even though this boundary does provide important safety guarantees.

edit: I guess this viewpoint makes sense for the use case of "thousands of wasm programs in the same process." They are protected from each other, in a sense qualitatively the same as Unix processes. This is still a much weaker guarantee than the JVM provides.
The hypothesis of bicameralism is mostly debunked, though.
So you made a change and a test broke, what about all the ones that didn't break? They still represent a lot of scenarios you probably wouldn't have tested manually.

I would also guess that the problems with your tests breaking are because you're not following the single assert principle. A unit test should generally (plenty of exceptions) not break unless the specific behavior (the unit) it is testing for changes. A common anti-pattern is to treat tests as scenarios, setup the scenario, test it and check everything went as expected for that scenario. Instead you want to work out the behavior you're testing, "foobar gets written to the log" is a test and the setup should be just enough to produce that behavior..
I do not have to claim that an untruth is such. It is rather those peddling untruth and statements not relating to truth at all (bullshit) that have to confuse everyone else to a sufficient degree to twist their worldviews for their purpose.

Unfortunately trying to control others viewpoints hurts yourself as much as anyone else because you are making yourself and what you can learn from others less adaptive to reality.

What Happens When Maths Goes Wrong? – With Matt Parker
Are you going to renounce your Australian citizenship?
This is something that I emphasized in my CS1 courses (I haven't taught them in a few years). Homework was 50% divided into 10% for Typing Exercises (my research), 10% for Lecture Exercises (MCQ, TF, Fill in the Blanks), and 30% Programming. Exams accounted for the other 50% (Midterm 20%, Final 30%). The big thing is that if you look at 20% of their grade was simply on drilling. Explicit cheating wouldn't help for them and they are just enough to still impact your grade if you don't do them.

Exams were in class, 2-3 hours long, and with a coding without Internet section. This approach does become more difficult with a 75 minute course (which is what NC State has), simply due to time constraints, so I can agree with you there.

However, your point about "Something has to give" is one of the reasons I argue that we expect too much out of CS1. In other technical skills, like cooking, music, martial arts, dance, etc., the introduction is much more about accumulating the technical skills necessary. Music theory isn't as prominent in an Intro to Singing class; however, in Intro to CS, I don't think we do that. As my course structure should indicate, I think intro courses should be more drilling to build the neuromuscular memory because then at higher levels we can do more critical thinking with the trust that students "know how to execute the plan". I do think that something like Problem Solving should be given its own separate course where its skills can be trained and honed parallel, but separate, from Programming.

>You seem to be ignoring that some manufacturers, like Apple, will straight up refuse to do repairs or sell replacement parts in some cases.

Seriously, can you please explain how on Earth you got "me ignoring that" when I directly stated I thought it should be legally required for all manufacturers, specifically including Apple, to do repairs for a long period of time. I used 4-5 years as an example period that might be reasonable for a $500-1k phone.

>Similarly Apple refuses to do repairs or charge extreme amounts once a Macbook is "too old"

Which is why I'm saying that shouldn't be allowed. Holy crap is this place frustrating sometimes.

>And they are increasingly engineering it in such a way as to specifically prevent other companies from doing the repairs that they won't.

I don't see that. I see an inevitable result of engineering things to be as compact and efficient as possible. The higher the active to dead matter ratio, the less leeway there is for simple repair and swapping too. The problem isn't making that tradeoff, the problem is not pricing it in.

>The point of right to repair is that it acknowledges that the economic interests of a manufacturer are to sell you a replacement, not to repair/service a machine.

Lots of things in a free market are not in a manufacturers interests, like dumping toxins. If there was no such thing we'd never have to worry about externalities and such in the first place. That's why a free market is created by regulation and requires regulation for running, it's just a tool. It makes the most sense to regulate the desired result. Just pass a law saying manufacturers must offer 1 year of warranty on every $125 value of electronic goods up to a maximum of 6 years. Or make it a formula that scales down. Or a host of other ways. But match people's expectations that "this device I bought should work for a reasonable lifespan" and require them to meet that the exact same way we require them to meet standards for safety and labor and environment and on and on and on.

This is one of the issues that really blows my mind on HN. The disdain technical people here often display towards people in other fields even now is really sad.
He's been smeared in CNN & Washington Post articles as a crank and conspiracy theorist who runs 'an extremist channel' who should face consequences, has videos constantly demonetized and de-ranked etc.

His channel is not 'deleted', (as is the case with the majority of right-wing commentators as well btw), but it is very much 'shadowbanned'/blacklisted, (economic ruin).

I for example regularly notice the recommendation algorithm skews a lot more towards the centre & right actually even when I am specifically looking for Jimmy Dore videos.

People like Rania Khalek, Abby Martin... were even more explicitly interrogated by the likes of CNN, had their Facebook pages taken down etc.

On Twitter, a lot of them don't even come up in the search results, effectively shadowbanned.

Of course, none of them would be invited on mainstream TV because their viewpoint is not allowed in 'polite circles'.

This is why I have a huge issue with the right simplistically equating D.C. Democrats with 'the left'. I suppose the division is as to what do you care about, social leftism, (identity politics), which is easy & lazy and what many on the right focus on vs economic leftism, which is what many of those I named discuss and is not really allowed on mainstream media.

Taking an ethics class taught me something that in retrospect should have been obvious but wasn't to me at the time: disagreements about ethical questions come largely from a different prioritization of certain values. If I come to one ethical determination and someone else comes up with another, it's not because they didn't apply logic in the same (obviously correct) way I did. Most likely, they just have different priorities or they use a different ethical framework.

That isn't to say that ethics is completely subjective or whatever you feel like, but the class helped nudge me out of an "everyone who disagrees with me must be wrong" attitude.

Plenty of people learn this without having to take a class but in my case the class was helpful.
