It doesn't seem like the woman even seriously dealt with the fact of the false accusation, or the reality that it implies. All it takes it a woman's word, and men can be destroyed. That young woman, and everyone who supported her, are to blame. And people like that WILL be to blame for any escalation. Yet the story just end with some bizzare turn-about - a suggestion all it takes it letting your kid read counter-arguments and treating them like an adult. The "alt-right" is recruiting people who are genuinely disaffected, and you're not going to solve it all with counter-propaganda.

I really wonder if someday, assuming this story is actually true, that boy grows up and gets falsely accused of rape and gets thrown into prison. His only hope being, of course, that the woman has a change of heart and recants.

Most serverless frameworks give you some degree of portability across the majopr providers. I work on architect (which is currently AWS only) which is going to add Azure support pretty soon.
> i.e. does China's investment and push towards a controlled society actually come out ahead compared to if they didn't?

The same question people used to ask about USSR. USSR had it all - mass prison camps, massive industrialization programs, surveillance and terror state (of course, at different technology level), massive successes in some areas - like space technologies, unconditional love of all well-meaning people in the West, especially in academy and significant part of Hollywood - everything was there. Until USSR crumbled into dust. Turns out enslaving and oppressing people under the slogans of "most free society on the planet" is, after all, not sustainable, and free economy (even the semi-free one we're witnessing now) outperforms the socialist planned one. I don't think China would fare much better - though it may take a long time to see it, and sometimes it would seem like they have won - as was proclaimed many times by USSR fans over the course of 20th century.
This kid might grow up to be part of the 50% or so who voted for the current president. We have to put a stop to this radical behavior by any means necessary!
Not often.

Work in a small town sometime and realize the respect you get - people take advantage of your company out of vengeance more than anything else - which is why most people here would be happy to exploit any justification to lower their cable bill.
Been using it for several months post-Gmail. I wouldn't expect all the bells and whistles of Gmail, but you get a solid, reliable, fast, and private email option. The mobile app is solid (though I _really_ wish conversation threading was better). And as @diehunde mentioned, you get @pm.me addresses (up to about 5 alternate email addresses). I don't regret my purchase and would buy again

I would agree that the majority if the value of roads currently derives from the use of them with modern vehicles.

If somehow we immediately ran out of gasoline to power those vehicles, our economy would suffer a major loss of efficiency. However, the roads themselves would still be fundamentally and practically useful:

They are public right-of-ways that allow foot, bicycle and other traffic access to private property.

They are established routes along which travel is easier, services are available and landmarks are available for easy navigation.

In fact, those fundamental uses of roads are sometimes improved by banning cars from them in some areas/times:

People choose proprietary software because proprietary software doesn't make you memorize and type things like "systemctl suspend" for the most basic of tasks such as putting your computer to sleep.

They don't want to find, audit, install, and evaluate dozens of obscure third-party extensions to make their OS usable.

They want options for setting their background image besides Fit to screen.

And they want to be able to use their friend's computer without having to learn how to use all their friend's customizations.
You might want to focus on jet fuel, since we don't know how to make batteries with sufficient energy density for long range flights and don't know if such energy density will ever become possible.

It might also be worth looking at where airplanes tanker fuel, that is to say, carry more fuel than they need for their current leg because refueling at the next stop would be difficult or expensive. Apparently a lot of that currently happens on short flights to small islands; while I hope Wright Electric and/or the EViation Alice will eventually take over that market, in the short term that's a market that might be willing to pay a bit more for liquid fuel made from air plus local solar panels.

Fuel oil that can be burned in combined cycle power plants in the winter may also be valuable for dealing with seasonal imbalances in demand vs renewable generation that lithium ion batteries can't cost effectively balance.
The author herself obviously had a problem. She disagreed everything with her son read online, and believed he was totally wrong and she was 100 percent correct. This is just pathetic.
The problem for me is that we’ve gone and complicated the heck out of Unicode and...chat has largely moved on from Unicode.

Now, I am way more likely to text a Bitmoji or “sticker” or whatever, none of which have any dependence on Emoji.
> He would be offline for a month and would need other mods to cover for him. To ask for help, he had to out himself as a kid.

I wonder to what extent the alt-right actually is a young teen movement, with adults mixed in (being the ones who show in person). Is there any at least semi-reliable data on this?
My memory of that period (mid-90s-299ish) is that in a majority of cases the widely used 'public domain' software was distributed without restrictions but also without source code, and thus did not really enable modification and redistribution of improved versions even if the licence (or lack of it) didn't prohibit me to do so; so back then the 'ideologically free' movement towards open source software did result in an actual increase of practical freedoms.
The headline is complete garbage due to its irrelevance to the rest of the article.

I think the article reiterates the valuable points of differentiation in competitive labor markets and working with jobs that truly bring you passion, but I frankly despite the article's nothing-but--positive praise for cryptocurrencies and venture fueled start ups.
All of those are design choices. None of that has anything to do with open source.
The original standup?
A) Nobody really knew about such camps.

B) The 'final solution' stuff did not happen until much later ie. i) scale and ii) death

C) That was in 1930. There was barely radio. There was no 'globalism' or 'global news'. There was no global awareness. What 'went on in Germany' might have been going on on mars.

It's 2019 now, China has no excuse, and we have no excuse.

It wasn't a deliberate substitution, just a result of typing quickly, having 'O' next to '0', and having them be hard to distinguish with the font I was using.
Well sure but most smartphones -- both iPhones and Androids -- do periodic automatic cloud backups.

The ability to do offline salvaging does not seem like such a big selling point to me.
Not sure. Why is everyone talking about the original Pinebook now? The Pro is coming.
> The settlement is what permitted Apple and Google to exist in the first place.

How did it permit Google to exist? Google was running fine on IE.

> Amazon was utterly irrelevant back then

It was busy growing into the giant it is today. Nobody saw that coming back then.

> And Google was invented also during that time and would have gone exactly nowhere with an IE monopoly.

Why would an IE monopoly have prevented Google? Google came into existence exactly when Microsoft was dominating the browser market. Microsoft wasn't set out to dominate the web. They were pretty much embracing the dotcom boom (which included Google). They just wanted to make sure you would be browsing the web using their OS.

> Linux for them is not a competitor, it's a tool.

How is being a tool not a measure of success? We all use Windows as our tool. Linux was simply dominating its market.

You paint a grim picture of a predatory company trying to dominate the world. Meanwhile Microsoft was exactly so successful because - on the one hand - they allowed other vendors to create hardware for their OS and - on the other hand - Windows was very much geared towards other companies building software on top of Windows. Sure, Microsoft was taking some protective measures to solidify their business. But what you're implying is that - without the antitrust case - they would've gone straight against their own business model that made them so successful.

I will grant you the 150 million investment into Apple. That would perhaps not have happened without the antitrust case. Perhaps there wouldn't have been an iPhone. But what's often overlooked is how Steam was actually the first app store with auto-update features. Apple wasn't the only player in the mobile market. Android was already under development 4 years before the first iPhone came out. Google had already acquired Android 2 years before the first iPhone came out.

It's all pure speculation. But the fact is there were plenty of corrective/competitive forces. Who knows what would've happened without the antitrust case. I'm not convinced it would have resulted in Microsoft being able to maintain its dominance.
You can use nsenter
No, it is not an issue, there are no suid binaries at all in the base install, so no way of changing user.

The link from the CVE says "Due to the nature of this issue, systems deployed using affected versions of the Alpine Linux container that utilize Linux PAM, or some other mechanism that uses the system shadow file as an authentication database, may accept a NULL password for the root user." - so the config would have to install PAM with suid binaries, and configure shadow passwords and not change the password. This is pretty unlikely overall.
What's your model?

I used to ride with a just-a-bit opened visor because it was so hot in the city, with all the traffic and all, (and the beard didn't help the air flow) so I ended with eye infection because of the dust ingress. So I just bought one with better vents (and audio). Worth every $ even though I had to patch the audio circuitry a bit.

Maybe you should consider upgrading.
CCP is wise enough to know such news cannot be censored and censoring it only creates chaos and panic, my guess is it was struggling how to respond. CPC does censor the debates about it, but from it started in last year till now, every development has been reported by the official press, it has been laid low about the deal and prepared for the worst scenario, the news about the negotiations are always simple description of the events, but it never covered up any development.
How do you view flagged content on mobile?
Although I don't agree with the way the trade war was started or handled, being firm on these demands with China is one thing I do give the Trump administration credit for. Previous administrations have mostly just turned a blind eye and hoped for the best while ignoring all the downsides of an unfair playing field with China (aside from military containment strategies).
>What specifically are you concerned about that is a problem with this and not with them having the email in the first place

My issue is that federal law regulates what information my bank can share with 3rd parties and allows me to opt out. The ethical thing to do is at least hold oneself to a similar standard. If I had worked on those projects I would have made it policy to ignore emails from healthcare providers and financial institutions outright, since there is far more harm that can be done than good.

I have no problem with data collection when it's done responsibly. But I get the feeling that most developers/engineers working on these features have warped senses of ethics and don't consider the large scale implication of what they're doing, or if they do they just ignore it. Either way, it's the blatant disregard for privacy that bothers me.
That context doesn't absolve CBS.

It is wildly inappropriate to be doing such a thing.

I guess that's the thing, though. Yes, mobile users should be using a bouncer — but who's going to set it up for them, who's going to host it for free and in a manner that it has guaranteed next-to-no-downtime?

It occurs to me that if IRC networks hosted their own bouncers, but that these bouncers were written efficiently to exchange data directly with the IRC servers' and their database rather than keep individual logs and so on, we might have something close to the "open-the-app-and-see-past-messages-without-needing-to-be-permanently-connected" quality that people have come to expect from instant messengers, Slack, Discord, etc.

(but then you might as well just write such functionality directly into the IRCd)
To be fair, she only believed that because he was totally wrong and she was 100 percent correct.
This is gripping, insightful and beautifully written. I especially like how it leads with the request to go to the Mother of All Rallies, so that the reader gets to experience the same knee-jerk reaction as the parents. I like how that knee-jerk reaction is later proven wrong. It compellingly illustrates the importance of open-mindedness, and that "sunlight is the best medicine".

Very thought provoking.

Are you or they able to elaborate on that? Headers are an active area of research/implementation for web security, are they working on any replacement to the entire concept?
I assume that their hope is that small companies will pop up that build up a fleet of cars and clean them in house - they'd basically just be the most disgusting part of running a taxi business.
The entirety of the health care system in the U.S. is setup to hide the price of health care. Insurance companies are required to cover drugs without regard to the price. Dr's - who should be the patients advocate in all things including the cost - are willfully ignorant. And then you end up with a person who fully understands that the price on the tin and what they pay out of pocket may very well bear no relation to each other. Indeed there's an expectation that it will all be paid for by insurance. Which is the Dr's expectation as well - explaining why Dr's care not a jot about price. Insurance companies themselves might care but it's not like they have a choice in what they cover - that's dictated to them by politicians who will follow whatever they have to do for the sake of a vote at the ballot box.
Can you elaborate on what "brick wall UX" is like to use as a user, or how one implements it? Are there known examples you could point me at? (It's a term I haven't heard before, and haven't noticed anything when searching.)
Fascism is seductive. It has little idological substance aside from that needed to apologize for promoting the ethnostate, and instead operates on style and spectacle.

We let our teenagers become broadcasters, influencers, reviewers, and players, but failed to teach them how to avoid being parasocially suckered, influenced, gaslit, and used as pawns.

Perhaps we need to craft an educational system which is more substantial. Or perhaps we need to teach early grade-school civics and ethics, so that teenagers will have had a round of memetic inoculation before being introduced to modern cryptofascists. I certainly think that my scant lessons in high school were crucial in helping to rebut some of the stupider strains of online thought today, like sovereign citizenship, flat-Earth astronomy, or (the modern flavor of) the Lost Cause.
No, that doesn't absolve CBS.

The words themselves are far too easily decontextualized by people, they have power on their own.

CBS is hiding behind that, it's utterly inappropriate.

The context would have to be glaringly and completely clear, basically explained, in order for it to be approaching 'ok'.

I'm a little confused. As far as I can tell, the time between publicizing the S-1 to IPO seems to be 28 or 29 days for 99% of companies. This was true for Uber, Lyft, Pinterest, and PagerDuty, plus the 3 companies I spot checked on Nasdaq's IPO page just now.

So, given that, isn't it an all but forgone conclusion that Slack's IPO will be on May 24th? Why's this a big deal then?
A quick google suggests there are just as many articles saying that it IS the case (especially when you broaden it to include Google/Amazon/etc).

Some have pretty convincing anecdata backing up the theory.

I'm not sure that you can prove/disprove it, without actual insider knowledge...
The first thing that comes to mind here is Google trying to remove the edge they themselves required to get into the position they are now in. They used and abused data for two decades (and will continue to do so) to become an absolute behemoth.

If they now play the "privacy" card it will stifle competition even more, as there will forever be a compromise on either the amount of data they are able to gather, or the public perception due to being less "privacy" focused than big G.
>So would the safety gained from their extreme surveillance state increase over all productivity ....

Most folks that have any opinion on humanitarian or privacy social issues would probably be unwilling to entertain the idea of cost/benefit analysis with regards to whether or not concentration camps (no, not 're-education' camps) provide a societal good.

There are dozens of companies providing kubernetes with various levels of management, and there are also many companies selling addons. It's a huge market, and Docker captured almost none of it.

Considering Docker literally developed the underlying technology, and a lot of the complexity and capabilities of Kubernetes come from its design, they had a tremendous advantage that was squandered.

Google clearly had a huge advantage too since they have been using containers for years. But Docker certainly was in a good place.

Jeez guys, you’re supposed to hide the ball a little bit!

In seriousness, this probably won’t have much of an effect. Insurance companies decide what they’re going to pay, which has little to do with the sticker price. Consumers, for their part, do not generally pay out-of-pocket for drug regimens at all — if they are rich enough to pay without being bankrupted, they’re rich enough to be insured.

It isn't about the date, not directly. It is about creating publicity before the IPO. They are allowed to talk about the company. But they are not allowed to say anything new.
