if the cops dont know how to use your phone and they brick your phone they have caused damage.

im not sure how well it would work if they plugged your "phone" usb port into thier equipment, only to realize your "phone" is actually a super capacitor device, with a charge level display. It could be sabotage, but we are developers and engineers after all so all sorts of prototypes could end up in the hands of someone ignorant of the device function.
Im sure a warning "you dont want to plug that in there!" would fall on deaf ears but is a point in your own defence.
This test is aimed at the median of the population. However it could be altered slightly.

Answer yes or no AND write a short explanation of why.

Then the judge of the answer sheet should decide if points for or against are awarded for each question.

As an example, I just am really bad at complimenting others. Both because my own overall standards are so high and also because that was never a skill I learned; so I'm actually very shy at doing so. Maybe I should have been complimented more, and better trained as a child to compliment others.

I explained 6 in a different reply under this thread. However a different way of getting the data (which would be better and yield a clearer view) could be to ask: "If someone doesn't understand my idea what are the possible reasons?"

7) This one is just painful. It really depends on who you're exposed to on a daily basis and how you relate to them. I _have_ marveled at how smart, driven, or successful some others are... mostly the successful and driven parts though.

Apple already has a lot of anti-spam/fraud accounts because they need to prevent iMessage spam (is your forum going to be subject to the same spam account pressure of a system like iMessage or iCloud?)

But also any argument that the makes spam harder to block also applies to Facebook or google logins - I can’t imagine spammers are using real email addresses with those services.

The only people this changes the experience for are actual users. Spammers already have a huge array of options to get “real email addresses”.

There isn't a supreme court precedent yet for whether forcing someone to disclose a password is equivalent to compelling testimony. The 11th circuit court of appeals says it is, which should be binding in Florida. They're apparently using a district court ruling that says something else, so there's probably some subtlety at work.

Possible subtleties include:

* Is requiring someone to enter a password into a computer equivalent to compelling them to disclose it?

* Is compelling someone to confirm or deny knowledge of a password forced testimony because it implies the person has control over the data that password protects (assuming that's not established by other evidence).

* Is compelling someone to produce the unencrypted contents of a storage device equivalent to compelling them to disclose the password or key?

They made it a little too comfortable. I'd remember their cafe would have students sitting there studying or reading store books for hours.

At some point they sold those cafe to a third party which modified the layout so tables were tall and narrow so less comfortable for studying.

My experience with the office supply places and Target is that they'll happily match their online price, but the in store price is generally higher on items that aren't specifically on sale - sometimes dramatically so. Not sure about Best Buy, but they'll match a bunch of other online retailers so I'm more likely doing that anyway.

I'm surprised by the experience related here - I'd absolutely expect the store to price match online when asked about it even though I believe they were separate divisions.

This is sort of an orthogonal issue. Even without knowing Joe's gender, A would have accepted either "what did he want" or "what did she want", under the assumption that B does know Joe's gender.

However, A would not have accepted "what did they want" as grammatical under any circumstances.

> in a purely objective, language-design sense

There is no such thing as this in linguistics.

"Anatomical details" is certainly not the weirdest or most arbitrary-seeming way of assigning noun classes, across the world's languages. Compare e.g. the Ganda language. From Wikipedia:

> ten classes called simply Class I to Class X and containing all sorts of arbitrary groupings but often characterised as people, long objects, animals, miscellaneous objects, large objects and liquids, small objects, languages, pejoratives, infinitives, mass nouns, plus four 'locative' classes
Most of the books in a major bookstore like B&N are returnable. They're not actually owned by the bookstore (at least not permanently, and not outright). If the book doesn't sell within a specified period of time, the publisher will take it back.

Hardcovers are generally returned intact. Paperbacks and magazines often just require that the retailer tear off the cover and return that, while destroying (at least in theory) the rest of the book. That's why you sometimes see that warning in the front of paperback books and magazines about not buying it if its cover has been removed... unscrupulous retailers will sometimes strip the cover, return it for credit, then sell the stripped book on the black market.
> There are enough trash ads out there, there's so much malware and malfeasance in the ecosystem, that it's worthwhile for users to at best _ignore_ and at worst (for advertisers) _to block ads totally_.

Having spent as much time on the Internet as I have, I miss those optimistic early years when this wasn't yet the case, or at least, it wasn't as bad is it is now. Oh, there were junk BS ads in the early public Internet (e.g. "Shock the monkey and win a free Peter Gabriel CD!"). But, back in the late 90s and early 00s, at least some of the ads led to something interesting, entertaining, or useful, and thus were worth the click. Either that, or I was a lot more naive and trusting than I am now. Perhaps both.

> It's important to remember that independent bookstores are doing great!

The independent stores that you think are doing great are not what many fans of independent bookshops are thinking of by the words “independent bookstores”.

I fondly look back on certain 1990s independent bookshops that had enormous stock, and books were all they sold. But these days, many independent bookshops have trimmed their book inventories to a bare minimum of “new and select books” like you speak of. Small bookshops have felt the same pressures as the large chains, and in the place of actual books come things like vinyl records, Kikkerland products, and fancy teas. That might help them stay afloat financially, but for actual book lovers, it feels like the soul has been ripped out of the shop, like the proprietors are not bibliophiles themselves.

Huawei would be reticent to include backdoors in their products, because they know that that would destroy their credibility overseas if discovered. Huawei might be forced to insert backdoors, just as the US government has forced/pressured American companies to insert backdoors into their products. In that sense, Huawei is no different from an American company. It's simply a different government applying the pressure.

After all we've learned about NSA spying, I find it amazing when Americans go on about Chinese spying, especially given that Huawei, as yet, has not been caught spying on its customers.
There's really not a good reason for their in-store price to be higher than their online price in 2019.

Think of the price match as a coupon that you have/know about but others don't. The store is content to sell you the item at a discount (they likely still make money and they keep you coming to them) but they'd still prefer to sell to you at the higher price.
Cool, thanks for the info. I was planning on copying some of the data to postgres for certain reporting features that would work better with sql, but I’m not really sure how that will work out yet.

Constraints and hosted multi-datastore solutions aren’t really an issue for me, but the type of query you mentioned about subgraphs might be. One query I know I’ll need is one that can quickly identify nodes with lots of neighbors that have a specific property.

The data is definitely very graphy, so I really wanted a graph database as the primary. Dgraph seems pretty good (advertises itself as more reliable and faster), but it sounds like graph databases might just be kind of oversold in general, and that I might want to reconsider. One other issue is speed of development, which the graphql plugin really increases, so I’ll probably stick with Neo4j for now. Swapping dbs theoretically shouldn’t be THAT painful if I don’t care about migrating data and keep the graphql layer the same.

Apple knows that for most people (unlike this website's audience), the privacy concern is not as important as using That Cool New App, and if this was just another option developers could, but didn't have to implement, many apps would choose not to -- and most people would still download them. The only way to make sure that most users' email/login/usage isn't being sold or used to track them is to force developers to offer Apple's auth option, and make it as easy to use as choosing to log in with Facebook or Google.

> I can't even imagine what would happen if Google did the same thing with Google Sign In and the Play store.

If Apple made its money by mining its users' data, there would be a big uproar about this announcement, too. But Apple made it very clear that they will not be doing that with this data, and is moving more and more towards establishing itself as the privacy-focused alternative to Google... So this is by and large (and obviously there are many people with reservations, whether about Apple forcing developers' hands, or about trusting a big company in general) being seen as more of a Good Thing.

Very good observation, in case of some radioactive nuclides their effect is insidiously long term as they may accumulate in body (strontium-90). Many pro-nuclear people and outlets oversimplify the effects of radioactivity. Single number comparisons are not always adequate, since there are many types of radiation, exposure and effects.

For food contamination by radioactive nuclides such as Cs-137 limits were introduced in EU regulation from 1987 and this was last expanded and numbers updated in 2016:

https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CEL...

For Cs-137 the limit is 1000 Bq/kg, in some countries it is lower - 600 Bq/kg.

The document does not seem to indicate how the number was determined, but it seems reasonable that scientists who understand radioactivity and impact of various radionuclide ingestion had some weight in the final decision.

Disagree.

It's reasonable to assume that Jessica is 'she' and that James is a 'he'.

It's reasonable to assume the board is 'they'.

We don't need to contort language to accommodate situations that hardly happen in a lifetime.

Sam, Jamie - sure. But Jessica, James, we know.

Someone who refers to themselves as 'Jessica' but also identifies as male is making a choice to contradict social conventions, which is perfectly fine and entirely their (pun intended?) right, but it's not our responsibility to have to keep up.

If in context we know gender, then cool, if not, Jessica will be confused for a female.

Going off topic. I looked up that book on Amazon and one critical review said it was the same thing repeated over and over and he could sum up the book's advice in one paragraph:

Make a decision as if you are betting all of your money on your choice. Don't take shortcuts based on your inborn biases and seek contrarian opinions and experienced counsel. Don't blame bad luck on bad outcomes; figure out how you could have made a better informed decision. Oh, and surprise, surprise, join groups with participants who have had similar experiences and expertise who can critique your choices and illuminate your blindspots. There you go.

Was he wrong?
It would be nice to replace the gendered pronouns with ones that separate along subject/object lines. Make "he" refer to the subject, and "she" refer to the object.

"Harper presented to Jessica and she was confused."

"Harper presented to James and she was confused."

"Harper presented to Sam and she was confused."

"Harper presented to Sam and he was confused."

"Harper presented to the board and they were confused."

I mean, no chance in hell making a switch like that by fiat. It just sounds so wrong. But if I were greenfielding a language, I think that would be a nice feature.

Yes, that's also a problem that people have brought up several times in other stories. Google/Gmail has outsized control, is a major source of spam, and changes or breaks email standards whenever they want.

I think we are roughly down from 40% of americans with a pension to 10%...the 401(k) was a experiment to replace pensions, of course when the pension disappeared wages never increased to supplement workers. Combined with The addition of student loans and healthcare cost increases, the 401(k) has pretty much been a failure, but they do make up the difference in pensions almost perfectly with about 30% of Americans at least having a 401(k) account.

I think it takes a really courageous person to hear someone share their negative traits and still trust them, just like it takes one to buy a product on Amazon with a lot of 1* reviews. I'm trying to be that person, but its hard! In my experience, voicing negative traits about oneself can put a kind of iceberg into someone else's mind, where they think "what else must be wrong with this dude". People who know you and trust you already, won't be impacted by this of course.
The SEC (before it was neutered) may be a better model. It's a group of hackers that investigates government and industry infrastructure for problems. They can warn parties if they find an issue, and if the issue isn't fixed, this group could bring civil, and maybe even criminal, proceedings against the parties.
The singular "they" has been in use since the 14th century[1]. But there are plenty of people who speak English as a second language, where their mother tongue has gendered nouns (which includes effectively all European languages except English) -- so it's very hard for them to get over the mental hurdle of having to constantly reference gender in speech. For instance, in Serbian (my mother tongue) you cannot speak in a gender-neutral way because all verbs have different suffixes depending on the gender of the subject.

Something I've noticed is that small bookstores, particularly used bookstores, cram in way more books per square foot of floor space. Books from floor to ceiling, often with so many shelves crammed into the building that you wonder if the average-sized American can actually squeeze into the store. I wager I've seen some used bookstores smaller than my college dorm room with more books than a B&N.

It's a cozier atmosphere too, more conducive to hanging out for a while digging around for things that look interesting. An all around more enjoyable experience than B&N or Borders ever were.
I certainly think there is a niche for the absolute last physical bookstore in town.
