Sorry, no. The ideal behind the rule of law is to specifically detail behavior that we've managed to formalize and agree upon should be punished, not as a haystack of justifications in which to find something to go after people who are unliked. False negatives based on unequal enforcement are prevalent enough, we don't need to be encouraging false positives.

That the Al Capone thing gets trotted out as an example of reasonable government behavior really only demonstrates how accepting society is of corruption serving popular opinion.
My available choices for what I do are C++ and, theoretically, Rust.

Rust has the advantage of fewer legacy choices thrust upon it, although it is rapidly building up its own legacy. It is thus far less expressive, so I cannot capture as much meaning in a library. It is less mature, limiting its practical usability. It has some complications C++ lacks, some of which are unavoidable even in little programs.

By the time Rust is mature, it (including its milieu) will be as complicated as C++ is today, with as many legacy boat anchors. But it will be as expressive and as practically useful, and I will have two choices of commensurate standing. For now, C++ is really all we have.

It all traces back to the destructor: the original innovation that makes the rest possible. Rust's Drop trait fills the identical role. Nothing else has it.

How do I deal with C++'s complexity? I stay the hell away from things that are too hard to understand. It's not hard. The most useful parts of the language are simple when used right.

Not sure I would call Netanyahu "cool".
I might be understanding this incorrectly, but the charges appear to be limited to Julian apparently coaching Chelsea on how to crack passwords, specifically because at that point he had already received the data dump from her and therefore would know that he is instructing on how to conduct further (alleged) crimes.

Although journalists often obtain information from otherwise potentially illegal sources, telling them how to go about it in a way that definitely is illegal probably makes you accessory to that crime. (accessory, aiding and abetting, etc.)

Yeah, it's always a fun read for grumbling grognards like me. Pretty standard stuff, except I don't think I've seen a company call out its own culture as a risk factor before.
I believe in this case it is because that key belonged to a US military computer system and was being cracked to access the data it protected.
> When you are arguing from the position of other races being lesser than you, you have lost all credibility and nobody is going to listen to you.

Allow me to rephrase: "When you argue from a position that other religions are lesser than you, you have lost all credibility and nobody is going to listen to you."

Everything you've just said applies equally to a literal interpretation of Islamic dogma, to which many Muslims subscribe. So I ask again, as you seem fine with the forceful suppression or expulsion of white supremacists, by parity of reasoning, you must conclude the same result for Muslims or you are special pleading.

So you have one of three choices:

1. Admit your fallacious reasoning that you would like to treat Muslims and white supremacists differently despite having no rational argument justifying this

2. Admit that tolerance of both Muslims and white supremacists is justified.

3. Admit that intolerance of both white supremacists and Muslisms is justified.
I agree with you, and am in the same boat with most of my friends. I have friends that would normally be shopping around for a new car, but who are deciding to hold off a couple years because they've decided that their next car will be fully autonomous and they insist that it's just around the corner. These aren't people I think of as credulous or not knowledgeable about the technology- these are engineers in SV with many years of experience. I don't get it.

I really want autonomous cars to be a thing in my lifetime, and feel like this sort of optimism is more damaging to their future than people being skeptical or even down on the idea. The more people push the narrative that it's a done deal and just around the corner, with no infrastructure changes required, the more backlash (fair or unfair, it doesn't matter) is created whenever there's an accident involving autonomous vehicles.
Here's a similar example using Tensor Flow, for comparison.

But they didn’t hack into the DoD network. Manning had already leaked everything by the time this happened.

Assange didn’t succesfully crack the hash, it’s questionable if he even did anything with it.

At best his crime is agreeing to help hack into the DoD network, not actually doing anything in furtherance of that. That’s a ridiculous thing to prosecute someone for.
I mean. Objectively speaking and valuation aside, Uber's numbers are better than Lyft's. Unlike you, I would much rather take Uber over Lyft, given how extremely siloed is Lyft's market.
1.63 billion from Uber Eats is not a minor number and definitely a contrasting number that shows that at least Uber is trying to position itself as a logistics company instead of a mobility company, which really doesn't make sense (mobility is an abstract concept that I think can't be definied as an industry).

I honestly don't like either. But a plain analysis makes Uber more attractive by far.

What are you talking about, "bike lane"? That's the Uber and Lyft drop-off lane.

The separated lane along the Drag sucks (which is the one in the photo) for the reason you mentioned -- cars will turn across it, and people will wander across/along it.

The two-way separated lane on Rio Grande is great. My only complaint is that I occasionally come face-to-face with a car that decided they wanted to use it.

There's one of those bike signals on Rio Grande and 24th does make that light slow, and people ignore it a lot (partly because it's West Campus and that's what kids so.) It's also very short, at least when going north. It's green for long enough to get across the street, and that's about it. Once it turns yellow, cars to the right of the bike lane get the left-turn green. It just miss that light and have to wait a long time roughly every day.

I think better than the signals may be the "I see you" signal on southbound Rio Grande and MLK. There's a blue light that will light up when it detects you, so you know you'll eventually get a green. Going the other way, and at many other intersections, at certain times of night, I know that I have three options:

1. Wait for a car going the same way as me shows up and is detected,

2. Bike up onto the side walk so I can press the pedestrian signal, or

3. Run the light because it doesn't know I'm there and it will let me wait indefinitely until one of the above occurs. (Or morning rolls around in 8-12 hours, I guess?)

I'd trade all these new bike signals for more of those detectors/blue lights. Maybe all the intersections will detect me if I stop in just the right spot, but I don't know what spot is for any given light.
Companies That Hire Remote (Upd: April 9)
This wasn't mentioned specifically in the article, but this reminds me how we have some legal protections for whistle-blowers in the United States (not nearly enough, IMHO) but none of those protections extend to government employees. It's as if the government thinks they're incapable of breaking their own laws.

If you do it to a privately held company, it's whistle-blowing. If you do it to the government, it's treason.
I'll play along and pretend that you're a very unique individual who only considers peoples opinions as relevant when you know the exact statistical figures of how much to weigh them:

11/11 black people thought it was offensive, of a pop size of 37M, at a confidence level of 95% that gives a MOE of 30%, so as few as 70% of black people also think it's offensive at a 95% confidence.

Ostensibly, you're saying, not all of the gTLDs are government run. Of course, the most important TLDs are in fact run by governments, in particular the FVEY SIGINT governments and China.

.GOOGLE is "actually DNSSEC signed", but, of course, GOOGLE.COM (and GMAIL.COM) --- the domains that actually matter --- aren't.

My purpose on this subthread isn't to litigate DNSSEC, but rather to back up the rather straightforward observation that MTA-STS is a bottom-up point solution that doesn't depend on the deployment of a global PKI, and that DANE is the opposite of that. The two aren't comparable. As I said, MTA-STS could have been deployed in 2005, or, for that matter, all the way back into the Netscape TLS days.

Since the purpose of MTA-STS is to avoid DNSSEC (that's not my observation, it's stated directly in the RFC), and the standard's foremost and first adopter is Google, which, like virtually every major tech company excepting Cloudflare (which sells DNSSEC services), does not use DNSSEC, I think we can safely predict that we will not be using DNSSEC for email today.
C, C++, Common Lisp, and others have the benefits of an ANSI standard. Any compiler that says it supports the standard, supports it, regardless of compiler version or breaking changes in future standards. My C89 code will continue to work as long as a compiler supports that standard. Worse comes to worst, I can create my own implementation.

When you don't have a standard, you're left at the mercy of languages promising not to break stuff. If they do anyway, your options aren't as clean as just sticking to the older standard.
Honestly, I consider this consent to mock them for their failure.

This cockiness is on the same level as calling the Titanic "The Unsinkable". They wanted to fail modestly, they should have behaved modestly.

Yeah.... immagine trying to respect everyone on the planet and to start a conversation.

Oh? Mozila did not respect the dissenter’s users, did they? Why are they not respecting them to respect others? Does respect have priority or preference?

Yesterday’s agenda for authoritarianism was against hate crime and child protection. It seems today’s agenda for authoritarianism is respect. Pathetic.

I don't like Facebook, but I'm not so sure about that. I read one article a month or so back where someone paid attention to the targeted ads they were shown after they'd deleted their facebook account. After a few weeks, the targeting got much worse.
> Merely being ahead of competitors isn't a moat

No competitor can catch up without heavily subsidizing both drivers and riders. If no competitor is willing to spend billions to steal 20% of the market, then that's a pretty effective moat.
On the other hand, if the alleged facts are true, it does suggest mens rea: Assange wasn't a mere vehicle for reporting information (which would entitle him to free press defense), but he was actively soliciting the crime of leaking confidential information.

Given that none of the bridges work out of the box without significant massaging and my "distributed" synapse effectively becoming useless in extensibility without the central riot/vector servers running, I am thinking IRC really isn't so bad. ZNC or tmux/screen irssi, and you are there.

Things are getting so complicated, that I think we lose sight of the necessity for things that work. I don't want a smart hammer. I just want a hammer. Instant text-based communication is not complicated, yet we somehow find ways to make it so.

It's the case of SNAP and LYFT because they have ownership structures which don't allow mutual funds to invest in them. Uber has a normal structure; any fund that mirrors the market will purchase the stock.

Tortured being defined as solitary confinement and terrible conditions, not like legitimate torture that happened in places like Abu Gharib.
The fundamental problem with this sort of accusation is that I could write the same about a person with your attitude towards the situation. "It's absolutely ridiculous how easy it is for Assange (and/or foreign governments with an interest in supporting him) to make gullible people on the internet believe that the CIA somehow ginned up the rape charges in Sweden just because Assange leaked a video that makes the U.S. military look (very) bad--the very same government that commuted almost all of his source's sentence...." And so on.

And no, not "high treason." But knowingly conspiring to access a U.S. Government computer to obtain classified information without authorization, the actual offense listed in the indictment? Sounds about right, if the allegations are true.

> I assume attempting to "crack keys" is something cryptographers do every day?

Sure, but context matters. I drive a car every day. If I drive off in someone else's car without permission, I've stolen it.
I suspect their reasoning was: It only trims down by 0.6°, what does it matter if a faulty sensor accdentally activates it. The plane is still flyable slightly out of trim and the pilots can easily correct it.

The 0.6° number was what they said immediately after the Lion Air crash.

But their reasoning was wrong.

Turns out, MCAS was actually adjusting trim down by more like 1.5° and they never considered that a faulty sensor would trigger multiple MCAS activations and move the stablizer all the way to the end of it's range.

Surely this could be easily detected, even with too low airspeed to give reliable readings the sensors should flap around slightly and thus provide noise. If they're frozen, there should be very little noise in comparison.

In addition you should be able to cross-correlate with gyro and airspeed sensor, not to check the absolute AoA, but certainly determine if delta-AoA is near zero (frozen) or not.

They asked her to talk to them in a way that would in no way incriminate her. She refused, so they locked her up for contempt of court.

"Every driver I've talked to basically drives for "all of them". Several told me they try to find whatever apps are local for driving and they setup those alone with Uber and Lyft and simply take whatever pays the most / is more frequent."

I heard the same from drivers. It's the ultimate replaceable commodity. Drivers jump ship on an instant and so do I as user. I don't care if it's Lyft, Uber or anybody else.

When does information generated or collected by the government not belong to its people?

If we could refactor the government, I think that question would be on my short list of things to define in such a way that it guides everything else.
I guess with house locks, it's a plain distinction between breaking into a lock and breaking into a house. With cryptography, I imagine that distinction is really problematic?

Though I'm aware in Assange's case they do have proof of intent, but I wonder if it sets bad precedent, or is a case where they just dug up some law which is practically never really enforced?

Since angle of attack is by definition the angle between a reference line of a body and the fluid it is moving through, I fail to see how you could measure it without measuring the relative motion of the fluid.

Your suggestion would work under the assumption that there is never any vertical motion of air, but that's not the case in real life. E.g. in a downdraft your sensor would fail to detect a stall.

I don't think they had those exact specific details but the importance of the end user controlling their technology has absolutely been around for that long.

While this is true to a degree, a lot of that response is conditional on race. If I see an Asian man dressed like a thug in the US or western Europe, that comes off to me like aesthetics/posturing and probably not a threat.
