Conservatives don't want freedom of speech. They want freedom from consequences. Everyone knows what Will Hurd thinks. That's why he got disinvited.

Call me back about the chilling effects of this when he can't get onto Fox News with those views.

I agree that you are immature. Your political opponents have nuanced opinions. Spend some effort understanding what those nuances are and you might learn something.
Stop Learning Programming
Do not think we still don't do it. My line was to state that I have not bothered to explain anything to anyone for years, not that we haven't done it for years. We would never use code generators cause we're professional programmers and know how to create our own output.

While I do not have issues with using some well-developed library, depending on whose library it is, we are more likely to only use it till we develop our own.
The article makes a very strong claim too, was that made in good faith?

A problem I have with today's politics/politicians is that once you are part of a group (Republican or Democrat), you tend to vote the same as the group. People talk about the free exchange of ideas, but it is in the context of them changing your mind and not the other way around.

There's no compromise on either side, why talk about different points of view, if you are not going to change your mind.
The new Function-based API is not replacing the current syntax. You will still be able to use your components in v3.
So free speech is guilty by association?

I understand the emotional reaction. I don't understand how nominally rational people don't overrule their collective id on this one.
The amount of downvoting on opinions you disagree with in this thread is disappointing.
It’s funny that the discussion is about listening to others we disagree with, but simultaneously valid ideas/comments are being grayed out and pushed down into obscurity
I live in a country which put a tax on sugary drinks. Personally I think it's been great. All the main vendors came out with sugar free offerings (if they already hadn't one) and I think it will make a big difference to the every expanding kids on the street. Next step is to make it illegal to sell such kids the big cans of Monster and the likes.
If it's impossible to provide human support for a system, and if it's possible to automatically exploit the system to affect a nontrivial fraction of users, then perhaps the system shouldn't have billions of users?

There's resilience in diversity.
There needs to be a middle ground between shutting down actual dialog and allowing flatearthers to suck all the air from the room. We all have limited time on this (roundish, mind you) earth and it sucks to have to rehash arguments. “No, no, just hear me out” is a hard thing to stomach from someone you know is yammering just to waste your time.
That's roughly $1800/hr for the stay I think
I will take your one phone as disproving all of my experience. Thanks!

In all seriousness, I have an iPhone 4S whose battery is in tatters but also hasn’t swollen (that I can tell, anyway). It doesn’t happen to every single battery. It does happen to a significant portion of them over time.
Edit was on the wrong comment.
For an ISA whose main use will be IoT (at least in the beginning), this isn't good..

a gigabyte per day per month at the very least. some plans (see other comments) offer 1.5GB per day for 91 days at the same overall cost of $5-$10.
>43 people are looking at this product.

Hotels.com and a couple other websites were doing that to me the other day. I had a feeling it was bogus.

You did have me at discount. I shop the same brands that I like and know. If I’m offered a discount I’ll buy 90% of the time. If it’s a brand I haven’t heard of or bought previously it’s much lower.
This could be said of both sides. We elect politicians to pass laws to impose opinions and values. While you may disagree with those, that doesn't make the opinion of the large portion of the population which agrees with him invalid. His opinions may be unpopular among the people who attend Black Hat, but not so much so among the rest of Americans. Congressman Hurd is also well-known for supporting cybersecurity initiatives in government, something we need more of.

If you disagree with Mr. Hurd on many issues, but agree with him on cybersecurity, why can't you just agree with him there and let him speak? The politicians with whom I agree only in part are without end.

Very few subscribe. Youtube would be the majority in my opinion. Hotstar too, but only during cricket matches.

Local content on Youtube is on the rise.

Example:

Technical Guruji (A Hindi tech channel) has way more subscribers than MKBHD - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOhHO2ICt0ti9KAh-QHvttQ

A Punjabi song is nearing a billion views : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YpkJO_GrCo0

It is a largely untapped market and ripe for takeover.
Common names of animals often have common names of unrelated animals, (elephant beetle, dog fish, tiger shark... none of these are hybrids ;) ).

Also I heard recently that a fox is cat software running on dog hardware. Seems true.
You'll likely have the same experience in Houston, Phoenix or Nashville (etc). San Francisco is just too dense, too many people and devices.
So, you failed to change with time?
For many people—particularly those in creative professional fields like music production—a Mac laptop is the specialised hardware they need, because it is the only thing that supports their workflow (certain software required, must be able to be on-site with it, etc).
The article is written by an American, so it's not so weird that it talks about Americans: "Susan Strasser is an award-winning historian, a Distinguished Lecturer for the Organization of American Historians, and Richards Professor of American History Emerita at the University of Delaware. Her books include Never Done: A History of American Housework, Satisfaction Guaranteed: The Making of the American Mass Market, and Waste and Want: A Social History of Trash."

In other words, it's her academic speciality.
Free speech is a principle based in rationality. Exercise of power should not overrule reason and independent thought.

Governments are notoriously powerful and prone to censorship, but private groups like corporations and busybody neighborhoods can also be heavy handed and net harmful.
Svelte has been production ready for a while now (I've had it in production for 2+ years).

10m^2 is probably too small for many people, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t some inflection point where the marginal cost of upkeep outweighs the marginal utility of additional space. As an absurd example, would you want to live in a house the size of Montana, and be responsible for all of the maintenance, or would you prefer something more human-scale, like a 40-bedroom mansion?
Can Jio make money at these prices? Or is Reliance subsidizing Jio (and if so, how heavily?)
Not information entropy
even though it is a bit harsh i agree. rely on yourself, not on some warranty notices and customer support from tech giants... that has hardly ever served someone well. (i.e. support from a tech company can't recover your burnt data either way... product error or human error aside..)

if you make a living from something, protect it, otherwise you risk your livelyhood. protect it YOURSELF.
Even if something else comes along, maybe this one was special. It acted very strangely. What if we detect 5 more in the coming century, but none does that interesting "accelerating without pluming" thing?!
Well the good news is you can pick up a very inexpensive board now, even a used one, and it will be compatible with the latest CPU. I bought my motherboard July of 2017 and will be upgrading my CPU to a Ryzen 3000 after 7/7 launch.
> you tend to vote the same as the group. People talk about the free exchange of ideas, but it is in the context of them changing your mind and not the other way around.

Thank the removal of earmarks and Citizens United for that.

Legislators are dependent on those sweet PAC dollars (or more critically, dependent on someone else not getting them) in order to get re-elected and without an earmark to bring home to your district to please your voters with you can't risk losing goodwill with the party elites who control the purse strings by breaking from the party.
There is no compromise is the fringes of Twitter. I don't think it's true that literally nobody thinks things through.
I somehow doubt this, especially over the long term. And this is coming from exeperience.

Let's say you have about 84 truly free hours in a week without work. Do you really have 84 hours of free time stuff you want to do or are you going to be staring at your phone swiping refresh on reddit bored out of your mind half way into the first week?

Certain people have hobbies that will eat almost unlimited time, let's say fishing or woodworking, but if you don't all this free time can be a nightmare.

That being said I'd love something like 4, 4-6 hour days a week.
The Aeolipile is notoriously inefficient though.
The report summarizes eyewitness testimonials given in front of the tribunal; I'm not sure what other evidence you expected.

FWIW in 2009 China Daily, which as you may know is a party-owned newspaper, published an article on the practice of taking transplants from prisoners. Unfortunately the original article was not archived, but it appears in this listing of headlines: http://web.archive.org/web/20090828122112/http://www.chinada...

There's also plenty of reporting in Western media quoting the China Daily article, e.g. by Reuters https://www.reuters.com/article/us-china-organ-idUSTRE57P0EN...

Now maybe what you're actually sceptical about is whether Falun Gong practitioners wre specifically targeting. I don't believe they were, it's just that there were a lot of them, so when membership was prohibited, a lot were sentenced to death and consequently had their organs harvested. They also had enough members abroad to complain loudly about it and get people to actually care, in contrast to most other human rights violations.
This kind of power move works when you’re disinviting bloggers nobody has heard of. Disinviting a sitting representative just looks like burying your head in the sand and expecting everyone to adapt to your point of view just because you let it be known you’re cross.

How do you think lobbyists get the policy changes they’re after? By giving the cold shoulder to any rep not already predisposed to voting in their preferred direction?

Ah, mon dieu! This is the first time I read about "logical pixels". It is horrifying.
You can't have good internet speed, affordable healthcare and education for the same reason - they are entrenched businesses, and the government would rather back corporate profits than public good. And you can't build sufficient housing because previous owners block development in order to profit. The 1% must have their share.

"Why is this controversial?"

Because disinviting is stupid and getting way too common now. This is like the 5th case of this I've seen within the past year. If they is going to be a heckler's veto then get the heckler's permission before inviting.
There's a fairly credible argument that changing accounting (and possibly tax) standards miht addres many present flaws of market economics.

Externalities, and zero-basis natural resource inputs, are not presently accounted for. Most economic theory fails to even consider them.
Blacklists are the middle ground? There's probably a compromise somewhere, but this isn't a play for middle ground.
>I shop the same brands that I like and know. If I’m offered a discount I’ll buy 90% of the time.

But if you get a discount a non-negligible amount of the time, you may stop buying unless you're getting the discount. The discounted price will become the 'true' price.
Back when growing up, my schoolteachers pushed like crazy the idea that Wikipedia was inherently untrustworthy because anyone could edit it. At the same time, we were all going crazy over Google Earth, which was the exact same system, except a for-profit company owned it.

Having corrected mistakes before on Google Maps, it seems like there's essentially no moderation at all for most listings. At least with sites like Wikipedia, people will occasionally look at the edits I make.

It's strange to me to see community run projects get laughed at sometimes in the mainstream, given that a nontrivial portion of the most successful commercial products out there are essentially crowdsourced community efforts except with worse moderation and higher stake by advertisers.

It feels sometimes like the standard is, "trusting random people to contribute data is naive... unless a company then gets to own all of the data. Then it's innovative."
In GDPR-land the customer has to confirm, that the shop may store the e-mail (or other data) for more than full filling the single order. So there is need for at least a checkbox.

And yeah, using a mail address for login is certainly better than coming up with a user name, which is free and which you remember in a year's time.
Yes, this is why we elect representatives. So what? My point is that he doesn’t merely have opinions. The fact that this is true of all other legislators just reinforces my point.

This (Japanese) article is an interesting read about the speed of FeliCa cards, the contactless tech Suica is based on. The speed requirement that was used when designing FeliCa was that transactions were to complete within 200 msecs, while cards in London for instance only required 250ms-500ms.

While this may be overkill performance for other countries, the number was derived from Japan Railways’ rush hour statistics and simulations, which made their target to be processing 60 passengers per minute at the gate.

As Japan has one of the highest train station utilization in the world, using contactless systems like MiFare etc. to make iPhone train payment work would probably clog the gates and not be realistic; hence, when iPhone 7 began supporting station payments in Japan, Apple supported FeliCa instead of the other way around. (The fact that smartphone users here disproportionately favor iPhone over Android also probably helped.)
You already have a right to buy stuff and put it together yourself and fix it. Go do that. Or pay someone to do it.

I prefer the super thin, svelte designed devices that simply cannot be made easily repairable.

There is no “right” to enforce your particular design and implementation standards on manufacturers. You’re inventing rights that do not and should not exist.

If you want to tinker, that’s great. Go tinker. Most of us do not. It’s idiotic for a tiny percentage of people who do want to whip out a soldering iron and go to town to put constraints on what the rest of us are allowed to buy.

And FYI, I do like to put together a machine every once in a while and fix it and tinker with it. It’s fun. I enjoy it. But that doesn’t mean I have some sort of fundamental human right to make every thing buildable by me, personally.

The right to repair is like the right to live your whole life without ever being offended by anything or encounter an idea you find uncomfortable. Enforcing your personal right abrogates other people’s rights and denies other people things they like to say, think, and buy.

But the real truth is that the right to repair always boils down to some clown on the internet who read an iFixit tear down and thinks, “man, I could make my own i-whatever for, like a hundred bucks if only Apple could be forced to sell me all the parts in exactly the right configuration at a price that only accounts for the bare basic raw materials.

If you want the fancy things, pay for the fancy things. If you want a brick house machine that you can cart through the jungle and swap out a new motherboard every time you drop it in a river, then buy one of those. No one is stopping you. The choice you want to have already exists.
So you're saying _USA_ waterways are not a sink for plastic pollution (and source of ocean plastics)? Or you just think a professor of USA history should point out parallel issues in other countries?
Tangentially related: I'm currently staying in a cheap hotel that's literally called "<ChainName> Near <SomeHospital>".

The funny thing is that the hotel is more than 2km away from the hospital. YET there's _another_ hotel from the _same_ chain that's literally next to the hospital and it's called "<ChainName> @ <StreetName>".

Imagine calling Uber to pick you up from the 1st hotel.

I believe with the recent recall, Apple's doing the bare minimum in a PR damage control. A lot more batteries have to be affected than they're letting in.

My MBP mid-2015 has swollen batteries twice in 3.5 years. Now I have to pay $500-750 (Authorized Service Providers quote), as Apple Care expired, for something that increasingly looks like Apple's fault.
In my limited experience, my Indian coworkers had 2 SIMs minimum. Some had 3 or 4 but one would likely be a promotional “free” one.

This was in Delhi and they said the providers could be very flakey. A back up was necessary. Some people also used their phone and it’s hotspot as the main source of internet.

Are having multiple SIMs common in India? Or was I just working with Software Engineers?
My pet conspiracy theory is that all this media frenzy about plastic straws is purposeful misdirection. Making people feel like they are doing something and exacting meaningful change while ensuring the people responsible can continue lining their pockets off environmental externalities.

Because 3 doesn't look half decent, it looks a mess from the geocities age. 2 is better than 3, its worst feature is the terrible contrast, and the tiny width that's barely wider than an iphone in portait mode.
You'd still have the mass of the spaceship to accelerate. The point of the dust cloud hypothesis is that it works if the whole thing is very light.

If you have a spaceship inside the dust cloud with its own means of propulsion, you don't need the dust cloud to get the same effect. Just use the propulsion and paint the spaceship white if you want to reflect a lot of light, or black if you don't.
Wow. Analog ultimeters are hard rocks if you take some cautions when handling it. Starting from the highest range and going to a lower one if it's too big must be enough.

Mine one is a cheap 35 euros analog multimeter and it's working fine since the last 12 years.

Just be careful and pay special attention when handling electricity.
can you respond to this :c an you get it unscheduled repairs from Apple in the same day?

I had more then 1 point, let me be more clear:

1 I had more then one repair shop in a small city, so I have choices

2 I got the unscheduled issue diagnosed and fixed in max 2 hours

3 I even made a GPU upgrade and I had choices AMD or NVIDIA

Btw even living in a village I can get things fixed like any other people, like when a new thing I bought broke in the first week I sent it back, it took 3 weeks to have it replaced but it works on small villages too. My example was about a PC that was important for my work and that was out of warranty, though with PCs, in the way I buy them I have warranty for each part so I have the option to go in the town, have someone test and replace the broken part(maybe I buy a cheap GPU or RAM) and send only the broken part back.
> Flow-Based Programming (FBP) is a programming paradigm that models software systems as a directed graph of predefined processes which run asynchronously and exchange data through input and output ports.

"Flow-based Programming"/"FBP" is a subtype of "dataflow" programming as I understand it. The distinguishing characteristic of "dataflow" is that the program is represented as a directed graph, where data moves across arcs connecting nodes.

From there we have "synchronous dataflow"/"asynchronous dataflow", "fine-grained/coarse-grained" dataflow (nodes as machine-level instructions vs. nodes as arbitrarily complex functions), and so on.

Going from the definition above, what distinguishes FBP within "dataflow" are 1) that the nodes are "processes", and 2) that execution is asynchronous.

I wish that "flow-based programming"/"FBP" advocates would place it deliberately within the hierarchy of "dataflow". I appreciate the historical forces which have prevented this, but it is confusing when you come to the subject as an outsider.

For a nice writeup on dataflow see this 2004 paper, especially section 2.1 "The Pure Dataflow Model" on pages 3-4: http://www.cs.ucf.edu/~dcm/Teaching/COT4810-Spring2011/Liter...

Almost all mobile phones come with dual-sim support. Some with the second sim tray being utilized as an External memory card slot/Sim card slot. This is pretty common all over SE Asia.
I thought T-Mobile has been gaining more customers with their lower price and reasonable quality? And I have always assumed Sprint and T-Mobile merger will give T-Mobile more firing power to continue the fight.

I think people often view MNO in Cost / Data. In reality the Data is "free". The MNO will need a way to paid for everything from Spectrum, Telecom Equipment Lease, Rent, Fibre Connection, all of these are Fixed Cost. Unless something is different in the US I don't understand why the cost of Mobile plans are so much more expensive than European counterpart.
