> I remember back in the day I had massive gaming sessions (like 10 hours a day for weeks). Games that are competitive and "skillful" too, not just lounging around playing them 1 handed. It required tremendous focus.

It's deceptive; from the outside games seem like a single task that you can just focus on, unlike those other single tasks. But games are usually made up of a lot of things to keep track of, remember, etc. and it oddly works well for ADD/ADHD since you repeatedly switch focus between them all, something we're actually great at doing.

Take a competitive game like Overwatch: there's the general things to focus that any FPS has, but you also have to keep other things in mind like: map layout, your own positioning, ability cooldowns, enemy positioning (where you remember them and where they're likely to be next), the objective, whatever strategy you or your team have, etc. Instead of being distracted off the single task of "playing Overwatch", you're actively switching between the different phases that make up "what am I going to do next", even if you don't notice it.

Conversely, if a game is going slowly, you might get distracted and wander off looking for something more intense to do -- like killing an enemy -- and get yourself caught out of position.

Or in a PvE-multiplayer/single-player sense, consider raids (10-20man group vs. 1 boss) in MMOs: you have your own character's attack rotation to do, but also the flow of the current boss to think about: incoming spells, curses/debuffs to watch for, positioning, next objective (if the boss is more phase-based rather than just repetitive attacking), etc. If you're a melee character positioning and moving might be a constant thing to focus on, too. Even if you're already used to it and it's automatic to you, it's still something your mind actively thinks about and switches focus between.

Even in a game that has much less mechanics going on, your ADD/ADHD might just switch focus between the game's visuals, just as you physically get distracted by things around you (except this time they're the in-game environment and not distractions, but things the devs intended for you to interact with).

TL;DR: A video game isn't a single, coherent task that goes from A-Z, it's a giant collection of many tiny repeating (but not necessarily repetitive) tasks that you constantly switch between, like a processor context-switching between processes. And that plays into ADD/ADHD's pros rather than cons.
Do these bootcamps charge what a real uni charges? I recently went back to school (a well known one here in the UK) to get a MSc in Data Science (have gotten interested in research now) so I ended up doing a research dissertation. I already had a MSc (CS) and B.Sc (CpE) and 20 years experience, so it was not too difficult. It was a bit less math heavy than I expected, but ok.

But the MSc in CS course for this uni... it really is less than a proper B.S. in CS course - it was nothing but the very basics. Aka a fairly expensive bootcamp, albeit with a "dissertation" at the end. The uni is making serious ££££ churning out "MSc graduates" and now I know where the trope of people with MSc who can't program comes from. My MSc course was a real course, from a much better school, but that was 15 years ago...

Not all the MSc in CS students were bad, mind you - the ones who could have been engineers did well. But they still only got the very basics of what you need to know coming into industry now (or what a BSc student would get) and if I was in charge, I'd re-label the degree to something other than a MSc. But degree inflation is here to stay...

Does China have something like the Cuban sneakernet, or is there a clear reason why that wouldn't work there?
This is indeed a problem, but doesn't appear to be the issue in this case. In a sense, this is the opposite. It's more like:

The law says: pressure vessels must be pretty sturdy even when really hot.

A standard comes along and proclaims to abide by said law, while fleshing out the details of how sturdy and how hot. Lawyers and judges then make reference to it as what the law always meant, and effectively give it legal force.
I've heard this argument:

It might be a good idea to get people into contact with the smaller problems you mentioned because they are less political and less scary, still somewhat connected and people feel they can make a change. That's more than you get when people shy away instead.

Also, one point of activism is to get people into contact with an issue or a viewpoint so they can get used to the idea slowly, and when the time for changes comes it is familiar and unsurprising. So it's not about changing things right now but to pave the way for change in the future. (Maybe this is obvious, but for me it was a slightly different take of it.)

> This was ruled by the highest court to be rape under UK law.

Technically untrue. That ruling is from the High Court of Justice, making a judgment under English law (they made no declaration as to its criminality under Scots or Irish law, nor are they competent to do so).

The later Supreme Court appeal didn't consider the question of dual criminality at all (it almost solely rested on the "judicial authority" of the issuer of the EAW).

so the comma operator doesn't do anything special other than return the last value - so why not just call eval directly?

If somebody rebound eval to redefine the 'this' inside - e.g., eval = (function(){myThis = ... ; return function(a){eval.apply(mythis, [a]);};})();

then calling eval with (0, eval)('this') will still not have rebinded the 'this' inside eval right? So why not just directly call eval('this')? Or am i missing the point?

It was always going to be difficult relations because of the cultural differences between China and the US.

But it's made much worse by Trump. The guy is pretty much the opposite of Chinese culture and he seems to not care at all about other countries' cultures and history, let alone basic diplomatic language.

IANAL but I believe those annotations are written by renowned jurists and approved by the state, so presumably they are "writing the law" in the way the state wants it to be written
Not quite. With Aaron Swartz there was no question of copyright infringement. He was infringing. With Carl Malamud and the state of Georgia there is ambiguity on the copyrightable status of certain kinds of legal materials (like descriptions and summaries of laws and legal decisions). This is what the courts for. Both sides have some basis for their position even though I side with Malamud on this point.

One should think that this would enable anyone accused of a crime to argue "Your Honour, I could not know that my act was illegal as the law in question is unaccessible to me."
No it doesn't.

It says that court decisions are always public. As are statutes. You can't, to my knowledge, render your court decisions "not" public, by simply referencing an annotation and then saying, "well, we have a contract with a publisher".

This legal obligation cannot, to my knowledge, be contracted away. So what kind of contracting was done to make this happen? This is my question. How did they manage this so that a take down notice is suddenly legal, as opposed to explicitly illegal?

I absolutely agree that this is the employee equivalent of "jumping through hoops".

With that said, for the companies I've hired for in the past someone who sees the state of unit testing as a dealbreaker would likely be a bad fit. If they're hiring it might be because the company needs more hands to help make the tests better!

> You're conflating "charged with" and "accused of". Note the title does not say "charged with"

We don't have any context beyond a Georgia lawyer saying "strategy of terrorism." Given how broadly that term is used nowadays, sort of like "war on X", this could have been a reference to Public.Resource.Org's legal or PR strategy or many other things.

It's a terrible choice of words, particularly for a government lawyer. But I don't see the evidence in the text to support the headline that he was accused, formally or informally, of terrorism. (Nor that he believed he was fighting terrorism, versus copyright, accusations or charges.)

TL; DR A lawyer using the term "terrorism" loosely is not the most interesting facet of this case.
>“We can try nearly futile psychoanalytic talk therapy on the schizophrenic patient, or we can give him 300 to 500 milligrams a day of clozapine. The scientific treatments are hundreds or thousands of times more effective than the alternatives.” — Carl Sagan

This is a particularly bad example; clozapine is not much of a treatment, it is just a tranquilizer. It doesn't cure schizophrenics, it chemically lobotomizes them. When the tranquilizers stop, psychosis resumes. This work also didn't really come out of scientific studies, it came out of the system of mental institutions, and it isn't really about treating disease, it's about controlling and successfully institutionalizing mental patients.

As for science, schizophrenia has remained stubbornly intractable to it, because science keeps looking for things like brain abnormalities (finding none in decades of searching - other than the stunting that results from long-term use of neuroleptics), since this is what it is able to operate on epistemologically. Meanwhile, outcomes for schizophrenics are actually WORSE in terms of recovery in the developed world than in the developing world, probably because of the use of antipsychotics, discussed here: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/mad-in-america/20100....

In other words, this is a domain where it is pretty clear that the scientific establishment has bit the big one, and alternative treatments based on things more like talking therapy (e.g. Soteria houses) and understanding schizophrenics as requiring stability, empathy, etc., rather than chemical tranquilizers, are more likely to be promising.

What's especially damaging here is the attitude of superiority, that "science knows best", that it has already understood something better, that whatever science is doing is implicitly better. This sort of arrogance is purely dogmatic, and leads to error. I seriously suggest you abandon it.

> Are women that say they're on the pill but aren't, or that use the man's sperm to impregnate themselves after sex, rapists

This is a very interesting scenario you bring up.

Anna and Bob agree to have sex. Anna would prefer without a condom, Bob insists they must have a condom. Anna sabotages the condom by poking a pin through the package. They have consensual sex with the condom, which unbeknownst to Bob has a hole placed there by Anna. Anna becomes pregnant. Is it an absolute unquestionable legal fact that Anna raped Bob? Should Anna be arrested? If Anna leaves the country, should she be extradited to face justice?

And does this only matter for a particular kind of birth control? Anna tells Bob she is on the pill but she is not. Bob consents only on the condition that Anna is on the pill. They have sex. Is it an absolute unquestionable legal fact that Anna raped Bob? Should Anna be arrested?

What about sex conditions not related to birth control? Bob agrees to sex with Anna only on the condition he be allowed to wear his warm wool socks to bed. During sex, Anna finds the socks to be scratchy and pulls them off. Is it an absolute unquestionable legal fact that Anna raped Bob? Should Anna be arrested?
USA has very little in terms of law on personal liabilities of officials and their scope. The dismal legal history for USA CFR 25 11.448 - abuse of office is a proof of that.

USA is one of few countries where there is close to nothing amounting to codified criminal abuse of office laws, the few criminal abuse of office laws are state level in USA. The wider official crimes class of offences, is also poorly represented, if not to say not being recognised as such.

Even if you compare USA to worst offenders on that front, from how it was in USSR, to China and other joke polities. They did jail more office abusers than US. Sounds silly, but look at the digits.

While this was never indicative of political commitment, and USSR was horridly corrupt through its whole history, there was at least a minimal acknowledgement that completely useless/incompetent people must be kicked out from official positions, or after demonstrable public screw up.

Here is a list of things amounting to official crimes in self respecting polities:

- Criminal incompetence

- Criminal dereliction of duty

- Insubordination

- Providing criminal agency

- Criminal conflict of interest

- Exceeding official authority

- Conduct of crime under official authority (have no idea for a better translation)

- Criminal deprivation of rights

- Failing official audit

- Criminal violations of cadre/appointment/recruitment policies/procedures

- Loss of official records/communications/accounting

- Income/assets beyond known means while serving in office (a charge as such, literately)

Any real code will have few times more of the above, and of stuff nowhere remotely considered an official crime in USA.
Having worked with both Xilinx & Intel/Altera recently, I can agree that Xilinx works quite nicely.

But Altera works equally well and feels much more natural to me!

Their entire toolchain is very unix-like, which can be seen from an example Makefile like [1] and I had no problems until now to move projects etc. from Windows to Linux and back.

Whereas for Xilinx there have to exist tools like [2] or [3] to be able to build your project on the console and I won't start with the problems I've had with moving projects around or the Xilinx Platform Cable under Linux which ended up in me doing only remote ILA'ing via a Windows box (at least that works w/o a problem).

Unfortunately since Intel bought Altera it seems that they are pulling more and more out of the normal FPGA market, which can make it harder to get support.

Regarding the free tooling, Altera also provides a "Quartus Lite" version which brings you basically the same feature-set than the Xilinx WebPack, for the Altera world.

The Altera toolchain is unfortunately harder bound to SuSe or Redhat than the one of Xilinx.

I haven't worked with lattice yet, but e.g. [4] looks super promising and their toolchain is said to be very linux friendly as well.

You have an engineering degree, so.... The joke was, when I was an undergrad, that CS students were the last people you'd ever hire because they couldn't design a system at all (or program properly). The first you'd hire were the computer engineers, aka you and me (of course). Engineers are born, for the most part, not made.

Over the past 20 years, this general principle has been validated, at least in my experience - a good boss I had once said only the top 10-15% of people in IT know what they're doing. The next 20-30% have some idea, but they're sort of useless. The bottom half, you do not hire if you can help it...

I haven't had much respect for Assange long before the Podesta/Clinton emails.

WikiLeak's big coup was cablegate, the main revelations of which boil down to "diplomats are very frank about people when they're not speaking in public." At the same time, Assange seemed to want it to be compared to the Pentagon Papers leak, which revealed that the US military was covering up the course of the Vietnam War. Instead cablegate was a whole lot of quantity over quality, and don't really merit the comparison.

Since then, WikiLeaks has missed out on the big revelations: Snowden's releases, the Panama Papers and Paradise Papers, as well as more regionally important leaks such as Lava Jato. There's no trust among leakers that WikiLeaks is a neutral source for divulging information, and the fact that Assange has seemed to have a specifically anti-US tilt which results in him getting cozy with anti-US anti-press-freedom regimes.

Personally, I feel that the interpretation is almost 100% in the public domain. This is a document created for the state (of Georgia) at the expense of the people of the state (of Georgia); it naturally falls into public domain.

The lower court ruled that the annotations were public domain, and the Supreme Court will (hopefully) concur. The state (of Georgia) has a ... requirement(?) to defend (and enforce) the statutes (and contracts) as passed by its legislator. If the state (of Georgia) didn't enforce its own laws, now, that would be a lawless, chaotic state; they'd also not be able to engage in contracts with companies (too much risk). Instead, this thing is going through the well-understood & time-worn constitutional process, as intended: the state (of Georgia) did a thing; a citizen did a thing; they sue each other; and, now, the Supreme Court will decide: is the citizen in the right or is the state (of Georgia) in the right.
