So I was still thinking about this question while taking a shower. Did the researchers come to that conclusion by analyzing food stuff that was still lodged in the jaws?

As an aside: I really wish someone would produce The Baroque Cycle as a GoT scale epic.
This happened because we saw that free speech on internet forums just let to people harassing women and yelling racist nonsense constantly. The forum you are on deletes garbage too.

free speech is a principle that the government can't silence you. it never meant that other people have to listen to you or care what you say.

> "elective late-term abortion" is a right-wing talking point. The term is an invention used to help further criminalize something that the state shouldn't be involved in at all.

Well, no. I'm just saying that barring extreme circumstances (serious medical complications, forcible rape, etc.) most people do not think it is moral to abort in the late term.

I've never read or heard the phrase "elective late-term abortion" anywhere, "right-wing" or otherwise. I put the word "elective" on it because it seems like it describes basically what the surveys are asking.

It's not the same comparison… but what about the English words "dock" (as in a boat dock) and "talk?" The vowels in them seem subtle different enough.

Unsure about how it would work on a very large sum, or in Canada, but I had a wallet stolen several years ago and had to sign an affidavit describing what happened. Someone had gone to Best Buy and spent like $400, and the bank returned it after a few weeks.

Only when the speech is insulting, racist, or oppressive.

This whole thing is a dodge so that the far right can get their views in front of people. This is something that they explicitly state as a goal and a tactic.

The guy voted for all kinds of gross right wing BS. People don't want to hear what he has to say.
I mean, its not just the tech industry, even people like Senator Cruz who used to `ostensibly` be for the constitutions has toyed with a ban on supporting BDS and regulating private companies speech.
To loss the fear just experiment with some safety and take measurments. You can let plugged a new project during some hours to look if it makes nasty things or not.

Anyway, I really encourage you to doing DIY projects at home. Most of them work in low voltages between 5 and 3.3V, risks are close to nothing.

You can read similar stories in Victorian Britain and, I'm sure, all other Western countries.

You can also probably find examples today in many countries other than China, including the West.

I think we underestimate the breadth of health and safety regulations, checks, and enforcement that developed in the West to prevent such actions, or at least to catch them as early as possible.

As to the first quote, you’re omitting the very next sentence: “While the draft report stated that the transactions reviewed were reasonably appropriate, complied with documentation and classification standards, and were compliant with local policies, legislation and generally accepted accounting principles, it also described “unusual” and “facilitating” payments made in connection with Mexico Subsidiary’s use of gestores.”

Note that the SEC filing specifically quotes the term “facilitating.” “Facilitating” payments—paying officials to do a non-discretionary duty faster—is not illegal under the FCPA. Bribery under the FCPA only includes payments to induce officials to exercise discretion in your favor.

I'd be a little surprised if that actually happens. Most likely they're shipping Linux for webdevs and people who want to avoid the Windows tax, neither of which they'll care much about supporting.

I think when people aren't in control of the currency they use, as in can't change the supply of it, really bad things happen.

Half of the country is not lying. They explicitly want to outlaw abortion. Maybe not half, but about a third explicitly want to put women back in the kitchen. At least one supreme court judge has stated that birth control is next.

I remember doing A/B testing on this for a multinational multi-billion dollar company's website. The learning was to never surprise the customer. Show the sum total before they even get to the checkout process. And stay true to it.

What proved conclusively positive was adding a discount to the checkout process (a time-limited one did not prove successful). Just to make the customer feel that they're getting a good deal.

Once the customer was on the checkout form we'd display: "This product is almost out of stock," and when they for some reason come back to the product page or listing, we'd show: "43 people are looking at this product."

Which created a sense of urgency. This strategy wasn't legal in all countries, because it was 100% fake, but it worked wonders where it could be displayed.

Customer satisfaction skyrocketed, so... evil as it might be, it only created happy people.

>Why should a stranger be forced to pay for your medical care?

It's always nice to know that there are human beings around that would prefer not to pay a very small sum of money into the system in order to save the life of another human being because apparently taxation is theft. What kind of fucked-up world view is that? Do you really believe that the life of someone with a fat bank account has more intrinsic value than that of someone who is poor? Law and Healthcare should be the two things where everyone is completely equal and deserving of the same respect and care, the money you make should never dictate whether you live or die.

I really, truly hope you will never find yourself in the situation where a loved one's life is hanging by a thread, and that thread might be cut just because you ran out of money. If you can't emphasize with someone in that situation, or worse it, you can imagine yourself not caring or rationalizing the outcome, then I feel very sorry for you and hope you'll be able to find peace within yourself and learn to love other human beings a bit more.

The contracts exist elsewhere; both parties have signed them and your legal department will have a copy. You can back things up outside of the cloud. Ditto for your work, which will be in a version control system which is backed up.

Also, it sounds like breaching the NDA is less bad than the result of losing the data.

If I understand correctly it's effectively a one-time constant cost when setting up an encrypted connection, so it should be negligible unless you have a use case for setting up many extremely short-lived connections.
My number one complaint of shopify is that they require email first to see shipping, which means I'll get a "what's wrong? Forgot your cart?" Email later that day.
Do you have any opinion surveys to back up the claim `third explicitly want to put women back in the kitchen`? If not is there a reason you suspect that?

Also genuinely curious re `At least one supreme court judge has stated that birth control is next.` Do you have a source for that?

I think there's an extra bystander effect if you know there is publicly monitored CCTV. "Why interfere and take a risk, the police know what's happening and will be on the way if it's serious".

If I see suspicious behaviour I might stop and watch, intending to intervene if necessary. If there's police nearby, then I'd point it out to them and carry on with my own business. If you think the police already know, then it seems reasonable one might carry on and ignore uncivil, unlawful, or antisocial behaviour.

There's a secondary effect, if you interfere and end up physically challenging someone then they might not even recall it a later time if they were drunk/drugged. But, if they see footage later, when sober, they might feel annoyed/angry that they were challenged and seek your prosecution.

Jio revolution is the main reason for this, after Jio almost every other vendor is giving you 30Gb(1Gb per day) for $5-6 , no wonder, there is a %30-40 utilization of data.

Back in the day when I was working in the places team in Nokia Maps, now Here, we had some funny issues with data suppliers for things like hotels. The hotel coordinates would invariably be in some favorable location (e.g. near the beach) when in reality the location could be kilometers away from that. We also had tens of thousands of user generated places named "My Home" or variations of that in different languages. User provided content is not necessarily very good. I always liked the Foursquare approach of asking their users. They seem to be good at keeping their data up to date though their coverage outside the hipster areas tends to be not great.
That presupposes that this isn't merely a side effect of the existence of the universe, the reason for the existence of which we would be incredibly foolish to believe we can actually ever know, if indeed there is one.

Last mile fixed lines are outrageously expensive compared to wireless infrastructure, with the result being that many countries with limited land lines have wireless infrastructure other, more industrialized countries can only dream about.

I am not joking.

I strongly disagree, 1 looks dated, aesthetically unpleasing and unreadable because sentences stretch to the whole screen.

It is basically a text file in a basic font being rendered on the screen. You might as well use notepad instead.

What's the point of not using CSS to make it look at least half decent? What does this improve other than the elitist standpoint that websites should be no more than an unstyled text document because this is what it was 25 years ago?

I truly do not understand the constant pushback against things looking aesthetically pleasing on HN. Not everything has to look like a console terminal spit out some text.
Although it demonstrably reduces pollution levels, I don't see it go much further. Too many of us are obviously willing to pay any price for the ability to sit in our own tin can while producing smog and traffic jams. Even when not in use, cars are a massive waste of space that clogs our cities. Until we find something that's at the same time ridiculously much cheaper, less wasteful and less toxic, we will stay stuck, clogged, jammed and suffocating.

Glad to hear this. Apparently, unfortunately, for many HN'ers, this is exactly the kind of post they don't want to see! There has been a movement clamoring for a pure tech HN without any marketing business-y type of stuff.

Only articles about the finer points of segment tuning and tweaking x86 assembly registers! Or all the reasons why classes can never really approach the elegance and terseness of classic K&R C structs. Or how Common Lisp and Scheme have this and that and the other but only that and no more :)

The former are really life skills that make even the most hardcore techies more effective human beings!
This is surely due to cost of data. It baffles me that we have so much regulation and so many entrenched players that there is little room for competition, leading to higher prices. The question is, how do you prevent the natural monopolies of a finite resource (like wireless spectrum)? The first thing I could think of is stopping the Sprint - T-Mobile merger, but I'm not confident Sprint will keep its head above water much longer without it. Maybe it's better to have the airwaves resold? Or maybe not, as one of the big existing telcos will buy them at auction.

Can any one conceive of a reasonable solution to this? Ideally one which involves minimum government intervention.
I don't think I'd really call that a computer any more than I'd call an old watch a computer.

Far more important than that what I want to know is whether I should even care, e.g. is there any evidence of Spectre being used in the wild or not.
While I certainly agree that it is a shame that food perfectly good food which is going to be thrown away can't go to feed those who need it, I think it's a bit of an oversimplification to say companies want food to be wasted rather than feed people. There are many other issues: liability if someone gets sick, employees intentionally preparing too much food to ensure extras leftover, etc.

I'm not saying these issues are more important than keeping people fed, but I do think addressing these sorts of things would go a long way to make policies allowing food to be given away more practical.
RAM encryption for sensitive data is overlooked in so many applications, even "highly secure" applications like veracrypt [0] only recently started adding it.

In my opinion server-applications of all sorts should encrypt their private keys by default; this makes cold-boot attacks and other memory-escape attacks so much harder, since now two totally unrelated memory chunks have to be combined in order to retrieve the private key (in fact one could argue that, the higher the quantity of memory chunks is, the harder it is to correctly decrypt the original private key; although to me this has the security through obscurity smell).

In practice however, this is rarely done. OpenSSL for example has a whole lot of memory-management functions [1], but none of them seem to include RAM encryption (AFAIK it is not present in the source code elsewhere either, but it's a large one, so I am not familiar with all code. Related: in fact some people even argue it's way too large for it's own good [2]).

Even better still, would be to use the CPU Cache for private keys, since this memory is even more difficult to access through any sort of cold boot. An interesting paper with much more information about this subject can be found here [3], to whom it may concern.
