This is not about the minor charges against this individual that helped expose some actual crimes against humanity. It's about spreading the message that whistle blowers face a life time of harassment and should fear for their freedom. It's vengeful and it is being orchestrated by the very people that got exposed.

The UN, excluding basically the US and not many others organized an international court of justice specifically to prosecute the severe type of crimes exposed by wikileaks. There are quite a few political and military (ex) leaders in the US that would have to fear for extradition to The Hague for these crimes if it wasn't for the fact that the US does not support this court and refuses to extradite US citizens for the severe types of crimes under the jurisdiction of this court. This will of course never happen.

The remarkable thing is actually how openly incompetent the whole thing is being conducted. Wouldn't it be embarrassing if the whole extradition thing collapses based on the notion that there is no good case that Assange actually did anything to make extradition possible. Years of effort and preparation and all they came up with is this. It's certainly putting the UK on the spot for basically very openly having to go through the motions of extraditing Assange on obviously BS charges to please a key ally. I imagine this might drag out for quite some time in the British courts so this has a lot of potential to get quite embarrassing for them.

Tolkien was right: Scholars conclude Beowulf likely the work of single author
I don't think this story is about a "free spirit". Twigg was a determined athlete who doggedly pursued her passion while she could and became the best in her field. But her success in sports didn't translate over to another career.

According to the article, Twigg has only been homeless for five years, and she is currently 56 years old. Twigg wasn't really a "free spirit"- She held down jobs, had kids, and made a normal life for herself up until her 50's.

So I feel that this story is instead about an older tech worker who has aged out of the workforce. As a 40-something developer who has already experienced age discrimination as well as the realization that many of my skills are becoming outdated, I feel for her. Without a nest-egg, many of us may very well be in her situation in our 50's.

Are Froebel's theories still taught in education degrees? Are his ideas still valid? If I have kids, should I buy them a set of Froebel's gifts and take them through some of the teaching (perhaps without the infant sized desks with a grid)?
Thanks for your work, this looks exciting!

I am curious about the following:

> Since the semantics and design of the language ensure fully determinized execution of any code there is actually no real need to perform logging within a block of code. So, logging is not available in the compute language.

While this may be true for execution, this is not true of data on which the program operates. For example, when processing large amounts of data, how should one keep track of statistics, performance information, data irregularities (which don't cause errors but may be useful to look into further), and other such events which might otherwise be logged?

Similarly, suppose the program performs some operation which depends on the system time which fails at runtime for certain system times. If run in deployed mode, it would restart and run the same thing in debug mode, but the environment would be different. How would such an operation be able to be traced back to the particular conditions which caused the error?

People are using a variety languages that compile to JS on the frontend for many years. Elm, TypeScript, ClojureScript, Reason, Scala.js, Fable, etc. In fact even modern JS is often compiled into backward compatible legacy-JS these days.

WebAssembly is porting the C machine model to the web, so for the foreseeable future JS is still going to be a better runtime for most GCd languages.

Doesn't sweden ban "hate speech/blasphemy" today? When conservatives are in power, they love to ban "hate speech". Now that liberals are in power, they also love to ban "hate speech".

This makes me think that it isn't left or right that loves censorship. It's those with power that love censorship. Seems like the first thing people do when they get power is to tell other people what they can or cannot say.
Exactly. Apart from that, we have fecal collection bag dispensers (bin + bags) for collecting dogs' feces. It is emptied on a daily basis. Most homeless people here actually use it, apart from going to a homeless shelter which is another option.
> Java 8 includes a very nice library called stream which provides higher order functions over collections in a lazy evaluated manner, similar to the F# Nessos streams library and Rust. Given that this is a lazy evaluated system, it is odd that there is such a performance difference between map then sum and a single reduction. The reduce function is compiling down to the equivalent of SSE vectorized C, but the map then sum is not even close. It turns out that the sum() method on DoubleStream "may be implemented using compensated summation or other technique to reduce the error bound in the numerical sum compared to a simple summation of double values." A nice feature, but not clearly communicated by the method name!

As i said recently [1], the Java way is to sacrifice a little performance to allow users to do silly things and still get the right answer.

How many female mechanical engineers do you know? What about simply women who vaguely understand or are interested in how a car works? How many women have you been with?

Even though I'm probably "one of those people", I still understand that exceptions exist. I think it's perfectly possible that a woman could design some original piece of technology or solve difficult mechanical problems. I just think it's very unlikely because most of them are not interested in doing it.

This suggestion comes up repeatedly, but I think the practical problem is that the vertical air velocity is unknown, and in turbulence, the naturally-occurring short-term variation in it is comparable to the range of the vertical component of the airspeed over the operating range of angle of attack. Maybe with an accurate model of the airplane's response to both gusts and control movement, and data about control movements together with acceleration and rotation of the vehicle, one could estimate this with sufficient accuracy, but the first thing to consider would be more (and heated) sensors (and more robust sensor-driven software, apparently, that can survive the failure of one of its sensors.)

I would guess that with GPS, an additional problem might be the timeliness of accurate-enough data. I would be interested if someone could comment on the state of the art in this regard.

In addition to pitot tubes and AofA vanes, there are various stall warning sensors that detect the movement of the wing's stagnation point as a stall is approached, and these are widely used, at least in the general aviation category. To be fair, they are also vulnerable to the effects of icing.

Update: On reflection, just holding a reasonable attitude would probably be a reasonably effective response to pitot failure, though if your sensors are failing on account of icing, you probably have other problems.

When you are working in software, you are not “sitting at a desk”, you’re sitting at the helm of the future. All of the advancements and evolution of mankind and life on this earth have led us to the creation of civilization’s most important tool: the computer. And as computers weave more into the fabric of our world and everyday life, those who master them wield power like Gods. There’s no place I’d rather be.

I have a lifetime subscription to Pinboard. But ... it irritates me sometimes, and so I tried a Larder trial for 3 months.

In the end, I went back to Pinboard. Not that there was really anything really wrong with Larder, and I liked the GitHub stars integration, but ... it wasn't enough to switch.

I had only one issue: it didn't cope with tags that weren't URL-safe (eg. I had a bunch of stuff tagged with 'c++' in Pinboard, and it couldn't import them until I munged my import file to change it to 'cxx').

Would be hilarious if the answer to your second question was Qualcomm.
I like the idea, but I think most users never would/could author their own UI's, and many who could would only want to a small percentage of the time.... but maybe your idea could work if there was essentially an API marketplace AND a UI marketplace, and services competed on both of them seperately... v1 from a service would (probably) always offer both to be usable but if it published some contract for how they talk to each other so they were decoupled and anyone could author a new UI (and, I suppose if it were a marketplace, sell it, but maybe given constraints only selling the API is realistic and UI is more FOSS/enthusiast driven/fork based?) and make it discoverable as an alternative to try out.

Could be true, or not. You could head out to wilderness every weekend, on vacations (probably further away), move closer to it etc. And researcher can head down to nearest pub or TV with netflix after work. You can travel where you actually want, not where the job takes you (although this specific one covers pretty cool locations).
Jesus Christ, this sounds horrible. There is definitely huge cultural difference between me and an average Seattleite, but for me "supervised injection sites" doesn't look like an obvious answer at all. The thing you're describing (particularly "3 of the stalls occupied by people doing drugs") sounds like an egregious safety hazard. I'm a big guy, so probably not the easiest target, but I would be terrified to think that my mother or girlfriend could get jumped at in women's restroom. Why don't people demand police to do something about this?

Yo guys, I know this may sound crazy to you, but have you thought about imprisoning those junkies? If you're so humane, maybe give them treatment AFTER you take them off the streets? While you're at it, might as well get the name of their supplier and imprison him too -- doesn't sound like a rocket science to me.

I don't buy that police is doing a good job right now -- I've been living in NYC in 2011-2015 and for whole 3.5 years every Friday and Saturday there was a guy standing at the intersection outside my work at 15th & 9th peddling coke and molly (the guy was standing there, sometimes walking crosswalks and saying out loud "coke, molly, weed"; not yelling, but loud enough that passerby's could hear him).
Good question. The publisher signs an expiration timestamp in the Signed HTTP Exchange. The publisher can choose this timestamp and the browser will not respect signatures with expirations in the past. Note also that the specification requires, and browsers enforce, that the expiration cannot be more than 7 days in the future.

Vegan ethics are not based on the innate ethics of animals. It aspires to make the most of our human judgement and adaptability/invention, which few if any animals posses similar power to recognize and realize ideas and effects.

The poet Percy Shelley wrote most idealistically but also intelligently about vegetarianism, this small section of a poem contrasts a human caretakers attention to the behavior of wild animals:

She lifted their heads with her tender hands,
And sustained them with rods and osier-bands;
If the flowers had been her own infants, she
Could never have nursed them more tenderly.

And all killing insects and gnawing worms,
And things of obscene and unlovely forms,
She bore, in a basket of Indian woof,
Into the rough woods far aloof,--

In a basket, of grasses and wild-flowers full,
The freshest her gentle hands could pull
For the poor banished insects, whose intent,
Although they did ill, was innocent.

Close. It benefits a subset of users: that subset whose first reaction to having a problem with a company is not to calmly and rationally contact them and see what kind of remedy can be made, but to blast it to the whole world, saying “my supreme pizza had green peppers on it, PizzaBlarg is terrible and should go bankrupt”.

This is meant to offload tracking from just Google Analytics and SERP clicks, which is used to track user behavior (but can be blocked) into services that cannot be blocked beyond Google domains.

If Google hosts the website and is masking the resulting url, they're able to have more visibility than Google analytics. They'll likely give this AMP some SEO boost temporarily and that will get web admins to adopt the technology.

It's just like reCaptcha, which is used to track users across the web (requires google.com + gstatic.com urls to load, which drops its own cookies or scans existing ones), blocking recaptcha will break core web functionality... and recaptcha v3 is even worse.

>The obvious answer is supervised injection sites where people can safely shoot up, which would then allow public restrooms to reopen and not be constantly occupied by people with needles.

Are you sure about that? Having traveled around Europe and North America, the only public bathrooms that weren't absolutely filthy were the ones that you had to pay for or were privately maintained (e.g. mall bathroom)

So I'm not sure that's the obvious answer.

Also, in your 3 steps you just assume that the level of homelessness in LA, San Fran, and Seattle is normal - and it isn't. Those municipal governments are terrified of crazy activists and have completely abrogated their responsibility to the rest of citizenry and to the homeless. The reality is that homelessness in those cities are wholly due to mental illness and/or drug abuse. The laws are so bad that even immediate family cannot forcefully institutionalize their family member and take them off the street so they can get the treatment they need. According to ACLU and activists compassion means you let those individuals (who cannot make decisions for themselves) languish in filth on the streets.

AMP documents don't share user data with Google, which can be trivially seen by inspecting the network events that the page generates.

If the publisher chooses, they can send logging to Google Analytics, but this is not part of AMP.

The typical argument otherwise is that the AMP javascript is loaded from Google's cache, however these javascript resources allow for a very long cache lifetime (1yr if the page came from the Google Cache), so relatively few page loads will actually end up fetching them from the network for most users.

Edit: These resources are also on cookieless domains.
One of the best dutch webshops, coolblue.nl, actually has people responsible for each market section, they test the products themselves and have recommendations for the items in each category they think are the best. It's supplemented with user reviews, but still, it's nice to get a semi-objective indication for which products to look at. The pride themselves in customer service, only sell a select range of products for each category and you can tell real time and effort went into it, this, in turn makes this shop pretty trusted by people. That's both good and bad, because now companies could approach them to get into their favours, but still, from what I've been able to tell, they actually offer some good recommendations.
But you get that every day, to a lesser extent. So it may work out better.

Perhaps it's worst when you have to do it for work and not for sport, like most of the times that happened to me.

That's too flagrant to be legit. Did he spend Monday through Thursday listing "solvent traps" on eBay under the username "TotallyNotATF"?

I could understand a dealer "advertising" in the open like that in 70s Detroit or somewhere else where the primary mechanism of "law" enforcement is getting paid by a tax on his profits and not by the city but saying "yo I got drugs for sale" is on a whole different level than standing around.

PENIS ENLARGEMENT CREAM

The overview of a survey states that about 40% men are unsatisfied with their penis size. Mentality of these men is that big penis is necessary for sex which is full of pleasure. Although this fact is almost true. We are not concluding for big penis compulsion but it’s important. For large penis males go with many medicine or follow many medicinal therapies but generally not able to get any successful result. Penis Enlargement cream’s a medicine which is helpful for penis growth. However with so many creams on available in market. So main problem is that is beneficial for you. Which will give you exact penile growth permanent?
Penis Enlargement Cream

Most of person doesn’t believe in penis enhancement especially penis growth cream. That the fact, because maximum number of product which claims that they are most effective medicine for dick enlargement are generally a trap to earn money only. They have no concern with person’s problem. But now things are different. Now we Hashmi Mart develop Mughal-e-Azam, a best penis enlargement cream. It’s purely natural medicine responsible for penile growth.

As someone else pointed out - those wasps dying in the figs is part of their life cycle. It's not us exploiting animals to produce something for consumption - if anything, by cultivating more fig trees we allow more wasps to breed.

As for your example - if the sheep's natural life cycle included being consumed by a mango tree in order to breed then sure, I'd consider those mangoes vegan. If we have to kill the sheep in order to grow mangoes ourselves(but the sheep gets nothing out of it) then I would not consider them vegan.
I don't do any of the above! I lock it, keep it up to date and are not foolish about what to run/download.
