“It suggests that something is seriously wrong in the lives of young people and that whatever went wrong seemed to happen around 2012, or 2013,” said study coauthor Jean Twenge. She noted that this was around the time smartphones became common and social media moved from being optional to mandatory among youngsters.

I just...OMG who the hell are these people. Maybe the economy just stopped getting better for most people after 2008? I mean duh. After a few years when finally becomes obvious that the new normal is gig economy jobs and living under debt until you die, say around 2012-2013, then people's happiness starts to nose dive. That's a much more explanatory answer than "the cell phones did it".

It's like an old person - I thought she was a baby boomer, but she's only 48 - that has a phd (and everything!) is desperately trying to figure out what's going wrong, and they have all the data.

> the pasteurization process reduces the nutritional quality of milk

It doesn't reduce the nutritional quality substantially though does it?

Europe Food Safety Authority advises to not drink raw unpasteurised milk due to potential health risks (http://www.efsa.europa.eu/en/efsajournal/pub/3940.htm) echoing what many national countries have advised "at a minimum, boil the milk before drinking it to kill potentially harmful bacteria"

Any perceived nutritional gain is marginal and is far outweighed by risk of illness.
Theoretically.

You can but no one manages to do that!

While in some circumstances it can be "legal" to resist an illegal arrest by police, that isn't something you want to rely upon. The rule is there so that people who are illegally arrested aren't charged with resisting arrest, else the police would have an open door to arrest anyone anytime. It would encourage police brutality as that would lead to inevitable resistance and then arrest for said, nullifying the illegality of the initial arrest.

Handcuffs are there not to restrain prisoners but to calm the police. The use of cuffs is far from universal. They are used by police in the west because they are afraid of those they arrest. Being un-handcuffable will mean that the police, who will still arrest you, will be afraid of you. When cops get scared they get aggressive. Instead of sitting quietly in handcuffs, you will probably find yourself underneath five or six officers as they invent some other way of restraining you. It will hurt.

she is not a victim, she is a retarded teenager who thinks filming herself having sex and sharing the video with a 'tight' circle of friends will never lead to that video spreading out. she might be the victim but she is the cause of this, she started it she just didn't like how it progressed. Im sure she learned that she can't control everyone and real life works differently. conviction is too much but honestly she got nobody else to blame other than herself
The reason for that is that .profile was also read by login Bourne and Korne shells, with which bash is supposed to be backward compatible.

So if you only have a .profile, it makes sense to source that. If you have one of the bash-specific ones, then it's up to you whether you want to `source` the common .profile one or not.

So how can it be child porn, if it was legal?

Edit: OK, so the laws need to change, so that whatever's legal to do is legal to distribute, and vice versa. Otherwise, there's too much injustice.

I want to add particular thanks for:

- Keeping the ‘[-]’ comment collapse button minuscule on the mobile site, so that hitting it is a game of chance.

- Abstaining from adding semantic CSS class names to page elements—such that CSS selectors amount to “a table cell on the third level under this table cell.”

These two features steadily keep me from spending even more time on the site than I already do.
The thing that worries me about mental hospitals that don't allow the patient to leave is that whether someone can be released is very subjective. Fixing mental health issues usually requires cooperation from the patient, and that can only really happen if the patient wants it to happen.

I'm on board with increased access to mental health facilities, but I'm skeptical of using them for convicts unless the convict consents. Psychiatric treatment often involves medication, and I don't believe anyone should be forced to take medicine, especially mind-altering medication.
And the doctor in diskdoctor was very forgetful, because he would not remember the name of its patients (disks) and called all of them Lazarus.

It's important to note that unlike Linux, NT system call numbers are not stable. That's a very good thing --- it effectively forces all system calls to go through ntdll, which can coordinate closely with userspace in interesting ways. It's as if NT's "vdso" covered all interaction with the kernel.

For example, NT has no native 32-bit ABI like Linux does. Instead, userspace translates 32-bit to 64-bit system calls, handling the switch from long and back to long mode transparently. This elegant approach is possible because applications never make system calls directly.
You naturally inhale essential oils when you walk through a forest and some of those (i.e. phytoncides) have been studied and linked to a range of positive health benefits, by for instance boosting immune system function and reducing negative stress. Those health effects have been reproduced by adding wood essential oils in the air of indoor environments. Example: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20074458

However, different essential oils may have adverse effects as well and it seems like this is definitely understudied. It wasn't until I started looking into essential oils that I realized that almost every type of commercially available essential oil is toxic to cats. I would exercise extreme caution when using diffusers and stick to the few essential oils that have been well studied and considered safe for humans & pets.
The real fun comes when you want to run commands in every shell, whether interactive or not. For example, aliases that you want available when you use shell escapes like ! in vi.

The only way to do that is to have the file's path explicitly in $ENV, or $BASH_ENV of course...
There's really no choice.

In the United States, there's no defense to possessing child pornography. It's a "strict liability" crime.

So if weren't possible to prosecute a minor for creating child pornography, he or she could photograph himself/herself nude, send the photo to the entire staff of a school (for example), then call the Police and have them all arrested -- all while not being liable for a crime.

As long as there's strict liability, creators of child pornography at any age, need to be held responsible.
I used it regularly to search for fun wallpapers on each of my devices. Given how many different screen shapes and sizes I have, the ability to be reasonably specific was just peachy.
it looks relatively cheap and seems useful for protecting your wrists and arms against unnessary force.

But i don't understand how they slow down the police or why that's necessary in this context?
Surely, choosing to wear a specific article of clothing beforehand can't be equated to resisting arrest, can it? That rings a ton of dystopian alarm bells for me.
Looks like it executes the commands only on the server where

My gut feeling is telling me you're right. Parenting has gone terribly wrong in the last 20 years. No matter what the kids do, they always tell them "good job", even when they are complete losers. They become so soft and iresistant to failure. Then we put them to hugely stressfull environments, where they are facing failures. Then we give them social media and other confusing propaganda (like LGBTI+ trendy movement these days) and in the case of US, we give them guns. I am not surprised at all actually.
Because the child porn laws are federal, and have a hard age limit of 18.
A sign of how times have changed from the crazy world of puritanism (when oral intercourse could be considered illegal) - you assume it is the clip that is legal. They're talking about the oral sex when they're referring to legality.

It is, of course, obvious that distributing a video of a legal act can be illegal. For instance, there's the obvious thing that a 14 year old is legally allowed to masturbate. They are not then allowed to video themselves masturbating and then distribute the video.

Have you tried with a fan or some cold showers? I also work remotely and often in tropical climates.
An air conditioner is just a heat pump running in reverse (basically). Heat pumps have efficiency >100%, while electric heating is 99.9% efficient and other forms (natural gas, wood, etc.) are significantly less efficient.

Logically, then, it is more efficient to cool a room each degree than it is to heat it.
Just one relevant bit of information: in “classic” vaping (the one where the goal is to inhale nicotine through the use of liquid “e-juice”) there are no oils involved whatsoever, in fact vapers who make DIY juice, actively avoid any ingredient that contains any kind of vegetable oil in their composition (which is unfortunately often the case with some types of food flavouring). This is because oils could combust and combustion is the very thing people want to avoid when switching from smoking to vaping.

I’ve heard that there are other forms of vaping where e.g. cannabis oil is involved but that type of device works very differently and has nothing to do with “nicotine e-juice” vaping. (Edit: the NYT article is just conflating many separate phenomena under the umbrella term “vaping” which is very unfortunate).

PS Ex smoker and ex vaper here (I went from smoking to vaping to quitting everything, couldn’t have done it without vaping), I‘m fairly technical since I was involved in DIY juice making and device “modding” so hit me if you have questions.
Damned if they do and damned if they don't.

To be fair, that is how most of linux tends to work. With glib wrappers around syscalls. It's just that the numbers are considered part of the stable interface. Hence people can write their own wrappers.

It's part of linux saying 'we don't break userspace' and the syscall numbers being how userspace talks to kernelspace.
Over here in Linux world we're all super thankful that the kernel community is big on interface stability and compatibility (and not just backwards), because pretty much nobody else is.

Lots of folks don't realize how important that is. If the Linux kernel space were to break as often as the Linux desktop, Linux' market share on the server and in the embedded space would likely barely exceed that of TempleOS.

Pornography and sex are different things, with different laws regulating them. Videos of children (i.e anyone under 18) having sex are illegal in the vast majority of countries, irrespective of the age of consent.
Fighting child porn is about power, not actually fighting child abuse. Hence everything surrounding it is ridiculous, unfair and dishonest.

Because in the US they'd just shoot them?

Actually, have there been cases of police opening fire on protestors? I know it happens in "regular" cases from time to time leading to much reported news stories (which I hope indicates it's uncommon enough to be newsworthy), but has it happened during protests?
Can afirm. I'm a Brit with 48 years under my belt. A £50 note is a very rare beast and is almost never seen in the wild.

If it wasn't for the fact that I bought a car for about £1400 in fifties in about 1996, I have spent more $100 bills than £50 notes in my life. I have only visited the US on a few occasions for holidays.

£20s are more than enough for most things. They are not too big or thick so even £1000 is just about manageable in a wallet for a short time. Larger than say £200 at most is bank transfer stuff. We have had near instant bank transfers for years. To be honest I keep a cash float of about £100 but I am an older bloke and like to use cash sometimes. I could easily operate cashless for about 99.5% of the time. The number of transactions that I can't do with pay by bonk (NFC) or mobile banking is absolutely minimal. I only use cash in a pub out of habit to be honest.
If you're American, I'm afraid I need to point out something you should have realized a long time ago: a large number of our countrymen are very, very stupid.

Right now I'm traveling in a train somewhere in Smolensk region in Russia and HN is the only site I could use normally with sporadic Edge/3G. Had exactly the same thought as in the title. Thanks HN!

+1 for a dark theme though, reading from a bright screen in midnight darkness hurts eyes.

Another frequent thought I have during such trips is why so few sites have any basic offline support? E.g. while writing this I moved to offline zone and if I press 'add comment' now then most likely I will lose it. So I have to copy it and save temporarily in a GMail draft. But it would be nice if all drafts are stored in LocalStorage/IndexedDB as I type until posting is acknowledged.

Actually it is much easier to lose written text on mobile. I've just opened 5 apps that took all Android memory, which kicked Chrome from RAM and forced page reload when I returned to Chrome. The page reloaded from cache instantly, but the comment draft was lost (continuing this from GMail draft, waiting for a stable 4G at the next train station near a mid-size town).

GitHub issues comment form keeps the content if I accidentally click on a link (e.g. Pull Requests) and then return to the issue page (not just by going back, but jumping over several GH pages, e.g. Home->Repo->Issues->#issue) and such behavior is much better than an alert on tab close about unsaved content. Probably in GH case this is an accidental side effect from SPA state storage, but at least once it saved me from losing a large complex comment with links and markdown, that is how I noticed the behavior. GH still loses content on page close, but keeps it after page reload.
Isn’t there a defense if it’s planted? Or an out for content publishers? (e.g. I’m sure people have put encrypted or even cleartext CP on Amazon S3, yet S3 isn’t being shut-down by the feds).

It seems to be comparing personal incomes rather than country-to-country difference. Isn't it? And it goes up to 1990 only. China and India boomed after that. Eastern europe was in the process of shrugging off their chains. Africa boom started more than a decade later.

I'm talking about GDP PPP grouped by country. Coming from eastern european perspective, the difference is much smaller than it was in 90s or 70s. Both in how close we're to western europe and us and how China or India or Africa got closer to us.

Reading "all men are created equal" like that is ahistorical. The Declaration of Independence asserted that at the same time as those northern states kept slaves (and would for decades to come), and natives being driven from their lands like cattle. Clearly "all men" was less inclusive than it's thought of today.

And just how long does it take to found a country? In 1789 there were around 4 million people in the US, and slavery was legal in most of the country whether measured by area, economic output or population.

Even if you take 1810 as the cutoff that's 34 years after independence. Would you say 34 years after the founding of some 20th century nation states (some of which collapsed a lot sooner than that) that it was too early to tell what principles they were founded on?

It's also a very narrow view to say that a southern state producing cotton where slavery was legal, and a northern state where slavery wasn't legal but where cotton production with southern material contributed significantly to the economy weren't both involved in slavery.

Yes you could have done it without vaping. Yes, you didn't do it, but that's no proof.
Judges are there to determine if someone has violated the law. When judges go off that, as some sometimes do, they are a law unto themselves. Such judges allow the rich and elite to corrupt the system by purchasing judgments, something not available to the non-elite. The judge made clear in the decision he was applying the law as written and there's a strong undertone that he doesn't agree at all with the judgment he had to give as it was not just. He also explains explicitly that it's the legislature that is responsible and enumerates precisely why and what a solution would be should anyone desire it.

Juries, on the other hand, are not trained in the law and are perfectly capable of engaging in nullification in the interests of justice. Honorable and responsible judges should not and are not supposed to engage in nullification because the risks of corruption are too extreme.
Nothing, considering the link you posted is not about a jury decision, but a decision by appellate court judges.
