Better driver assist technology could have the same benefits but it is not equally distributed due to cost. Automation is going to go from luxury vehicles to commercial vehicles and be funded by labor savings.

Yeah, but that's a pretty obscure attack. All bank customers have the same length account number. All the videos on YouTube have the same length identifier and usually last about 10 minutes and 1 second. Some information is leaked through packet size and timing. But a lot isn't.

I am also guessing that 1 capture doesn't give you a very good signal to noise ratio. Sure, if you capture someone's keyboard-interactive ssh exchange 100 times a day for 6 months, you have a lot of data. For your porn searches or whatever, I doubt the sample size is enough to leak a ton of information. And it's certainly better than just letting the person capturing packets read them and see what's in there.

It's really not cool to delete vast archives of knowledge, ahem... http://web.archive.org/web/20171104080019/https://deis.com/

I wish that archive.org had captured more of deis.com/blog, there were 232 fantastic articles there, and while I still have them, it seems like it will have to take a great deal more effort to republish them all, than it would have taken to just leave them all online.

This is on-topic because it was some legal process in Microsoft corporation which decided to delete this, too. Not as popular though, so not restored. Check deis.com today, it just redirects to the (admittedly very nice) Azure Kubernetes cloud services home-page. It would have been great if even someone was given notice and permission to tell web.archive.org it was time to crawl this blog, first, so those articles could be referenced in historical context.
That point would be great if both those things worked to their full potential on a model made after circa ~2012

> If I am the sole shareholder of a corporation, I and the company are distinct legal entities.

Perhaps, but probably not. The ease of corporate veil piercing is inversely proportional to the number of involved parties.

which means that it is easier to sue as an entity.

> The objection is that "it's too hard to define legally". Nonsense.

I never made that argument. Stop with the strawmanning. I said that there is no way to limit the ability of companies to petition the government without simultaneously limiting the ability of individuals to do so as well. The previous regulations we had were easily bypassed.

So for instance, a corporation could still have their executives donate to PACs and they could create dozens of PACs in order to be able to donate more overall. However, there is a limit to how many executives and PACs they can juggle so it at least doesn't scale the way the current abuses do.

Nah, someone will just offer a service to those executives to manage their PAC contributions. But, I mean, job creation is great, so I guess that makes sense.

This. For the majority of fatalities, the driver that caused the accident is rarely among the dead. They are generally in another vehicle. Everything is random. Decreasing the odds of failure will kill individuals, but even a software edge case can cause a phone to explode. The assumption we are always in control is what needs to change.
The wells thing is tricky, though. There is only one water table, and we all need to share it. Is it ok for one person to dig a well on their property, and say, pump millions of gallons out and sell it?

So it’s possible that big companies are increasing their market power by using lobbying to capture politicians and regulators. If this is true, it’s very bad news for free markets and capitalism. It would validate the claims of Senator Bernie Sanders, the socialist presidential candidate who has blamed corporate interests for the woes of American workers. Why exactly big companies and their lobbyists might have become more successful in bending regulation to their will since 2000 is still a mystery, but it’s a phenomenon that deserves more attention and investigation. The future of capitalism could be at stake.

I'm not sure how that author makes the segue from regulation being a problem to more government control being the answer.

I wonder if the popular HBO show Chernobyl will add any fuel to this fire. It paints nuclear power in a very bad light (albeit fairly — Chernobyl was horrific).

I’m afraid it could cause some serious resistance to nuclear power, which could be a very important solution to energy security and aspects of global warming.

I’ve always wondered whether show writers consider this. It’s similar to the ER/medical shows where an organ donor turns out to still be alive or something like that. I wonder if they consider the potential damage that has on organ donation and the ramifications of turning off so many people from signing up to be a donor.

I guess I fail to see the difference between the CEO of Exxon writing and Exxon itself. Of course, the real issue at hand is that of money being spent to lobby. Individuals also have a right to spend their money to lobby. Individuals with more money have an outsized influence, kind of by nature. Corporations of course have more money than individuals, but corporations can simply give their money to officers that they know are going to lobby on behalf of it anyway, so it's all a matter of money shuffling. I prefer things to be transparent rather than obfuscated on purpose.

Mandarin is a spoken language. The characters are "Simplified Chinese" in this case. The characters will sound different read in different languages.

e.g. the two Traditional Chinese characters 東京 translate roughly to "Eastern Capital" and are read dōngjīng, while they are also valid Japanese Kanji where they have the same meaning and are read as Tokyo. (Yes, the name of the capital of Japan.) Interestingly, Běijīng and Nánjīng similarly mean "northern" and "southern" capital respectively.

i've been to india twice to study yoga for months at a time, and i've done all kinds in the US. ok there are my creds.

yoga asana - the moving aspect - is only 1 of 8 branches of yoga and it has evolved significantly over time.

Even BKS Iyengar, the man who brought yoga to the West, changed his practice over time from a strong, powerful and probably sweaty style when he was younger to a slower style as he aged.

there isn't a "right way" to do yoga, but if you're looking for authenticity then follow a lineage that has ties to India. Iyengar yoga is probably the closest in the US and even those expert teachers will have different styles.

at any rate, find an instructor that gives detailed instructions. you shouldn't have to look at your neighbor to figure out what your body ought to be doing, and the point isn't for your hand to reach that one hard-to-reach place on day 1. that's why there are props because everyone's body is different.

In Chinese culture, your male line ancestry matter more. Your mother's family is considered auxiliary ('外家'), thus only your father's brother's children are considered in the same family, and these cousins are labeled “堂”, all the other cousins are labeled "表”, and "姐" means older sister.
Standing the test of time implies that you're doing something right, it doesn't mean that you've reached the pinnacle. I absolutely agree with you that the accessibility of traditional yoga translates into tremendous value, I also would admit that "neo-yoga", as you called it, seems exploitative to me. I would not go as far as claiming to know all of its benefits.

I know that Nylas and Mailbird both had it and I couldn't even figure out how to disable them in Newton Mail on Android.

- Your computer was running for a long time without a reboot

- Might be your Computer have no enough free hard drive space

- Hard drive corrupted or fragmented

- Malware or Virus infected Computer that is reason Computer running slow.

- Too many background programs running

- Hardware failure

- Hardware conflicts and outdated drivers

- May be your Computer or processor is overheating and perform slow processing

- One the thing, your Computer is too old

- Outdated version of Software or Windows that you are using

You should check all above mentioned things to fast processing of Computer. To fix this problem, remove or delete all temp files and free up space.
> The graph that shows the percentage of corporate profits versus GDP seems like it shows nothing. GDP goes up, profit goes up at the same rate, so profit as a percentage remains static.

Assume you're referring to the second graph. That graph starts in July 2009, which is just the very-rightmost section of the first graph, which starts all the way back in ~1947. And while corp profits as a percentage of GDP hasn't changed much since 2009, this percentage is much higher than post-war average right up until the Great Recession.

Regarding S&P not tracking to the GDP, while yes you would except them not to line up 1-1, long term equity valuations can't grow faster than GDP without some other fundamental economic change,e.g. a permanent reduction in the risk-free rate (and rates over the past ~30 years are significantly lower - remains to be seen how permanent this ends up being).

> That's a view that seem common among extreme libertarians.

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

If that is “extreme libertarian” then count me in. The United States was literally founded on this concept. It’s extreme to think of rights any differently, at least if you are an American. ”Extreme” is the idea that rights are gifts from government or from the benevolence of a sovereign. The view of rights as being unalienable is distinctly American; Englishman Thomas Hobbes expounded on this and thusly planted the seeds of the American idea. Such seeds didn’t take root in England at the time as citizens there were subjects of a king, but it was Hobbes that set the wheels of freedom in motion.

Extreme? I suppose it depends on one’s perspective. At the time Hobbes was extreme, but then, as Americans, we might think of any idea contrary to liberty as a extreme.
