While redemption is one of the themes in the book sadly the internet has not quite developed that level of sophistication so we are stuck with denouncement/punishment.
Glad to hear from an actual doctor. Is it common practice to get previous medical history and notes if you are seeing someone for the first time who has been under someone else's care? Or are there strange laws preventing you from getting the continuity information from the other doc?
In Australia once we give consent, the other clinic/hospital would release notes electronically. Sometimes it's also a quick check with state PBS registration to get confirmation on dosage already being prescribed.

PS: based on my personal experience in Australia, not for opioids but for other controlled substances like amphetamines or ritalin.

You copied two words out of a complex sentence and now you simply lie. Or maybe you don't really know what he said and that's the reason you can't understand why people may be defending him in this case?
Ah man, you are just like me, except I'm the opposite skin color. Violence in ghettos knows no bounds, I can't recall how many times as a kid I've had to look the other way or keep my mouth shut so as to not get killed. At a certain point you realize the only way to succeed in life is to leave.

I also was inspired by developers like John Carmack and Chris Sawyer, and fortunately my dad had a Compaq Presario in those days, so I took a love for programming early. I can remember having to haul a bookbag full of programming books from the local library, through the ghetto to our apartment, nervous day that was.

I don't people really understand how much different it is living in the ghetto vs living in a middle-class area. It is night and day, and anyone can attest that once you make it out you never want to return if you can help it, and most fail to appreciate the incredible difficulty of "fixing" an area like that or even helping someone who refuses to leave
"Maybe he needed a PR manager."

No... he needed a PR manager desperately and I'm very surprised that the FSF or MIT never even considered nor assigned one to him. I know he's a grown man and is responsible for what he says, but he is, was, whatever, a figure to the CS community and as such should have had his public comments vetted more.
The fundamental principal of supply and demand is that shifting the supply curve down or to the right increases demand equilibrium.

If supply has a fixed upper limit and price is also fixed at a reasonable level, then demand will always peg to the right of the curve. The economic solution in this case is to increase supply (or increase cost)

This is only considered a problem when there is a real (or perceived) negative externality on increasing the supply. I fail to see the negative externality of having more national parks which massive numbers of people are very excited to tour.

“Save” as in “not take/require” the entire prescription is not the same as hoarding. And then rarely dipping into the extra supply as needed is not the same as abusing. However, I agree that many (most, probably) doctors probably do see it as unacceptable behavior.

The report is saying that where you are born is the most predictive factor in determining how well you will do later in life, compared to other metrics.

By the way, how well do your theories on IQ and "genetic legacy" (nice dog-whistle) perform in combination with the actual data that shows pretty much every country in the world improving under almost every metric? Take Bangladesh now vs. 50 years ago for instance. Did the nation's "genetic legacy" magically improve over that time period?

Though I guess it must be easier to just attribute your situation to genetic superiority, rather than to theories supported by actual data.

This comment is infuriatingly wrong.

Stallman did nothing of the sort. Stallman's "crime" was having the audacity of pointing out that the technical definition of the crime matching the accusations was statutory rape. That's it.

And now he's out of a job.

Stallman was extreme, but practically speaking he has never had any power and never tried to gather any. His extremism is characterised by pedantically talking about the logical conclusions of actions and working strictly within and through the legal system to accomplish his goals.

That is a type of extremism that is very uncomfortable when it is used against something held personally important, but it is exactly the type of extremism that we want more of.

Organisers of extra-legal justice mobs are the sort of extremists we can generally do without.

I find this argument to be so bizarre it’s hard to imagine it’s sincere. In what world is writing dumb and offensive rants to a CS mailing list a good way to learn about the legal, psychological, and moral aspects of sex slavery?

Where do you go to learn more? Maybe you could go to the library. You could enroll in classes. MIT is famous for technical subjects but I’m sure they have good classes about psychology, law, and ethics too. Or you could find stuff online, I’m sure there are plenty of good resources out there.

In the US, more men are victims of violent crime, more men are unemployed, more men are homeless, more men commit suicide, fewer men go to college.

The "patently absurd take" is that women are the disadvantaged gender in the US.

That question of your is kinda in bad faith, though isn't it? There's no reasonable answer to that question. The answer is, of course, "it depends".

I would not want to work for a CEO who believed for years that "voluntary pedophilia" doesn't harm children. If I were someone at the FSF with any amount of power, and I found out about that, I would immediately work to get him ousted, or, failing that, I'd quit.

And it's not like this is the only thing he's done; he's been creating a hostile environment for women at MIT for decades. It's about time he was held to account for that, too.

I got a reply to my post, now deleted, asking for more named sources. I don't see how you can dismiss the first two tweets as "unsourced" when they are first-hand statements.

@quince's comment is not first-hand about RMS personally but the damage done to the institution that makes excuses for powerful people. This is not about him being just awkward, it's that MIT will never confront him about threatening behavior or stand up for his victims.

Edit: so in other comments you've mentioned that blog post claims "this isn't about Stallman" but you're still defending specific points about Stallman. This isn't about Stallman, this is about MIT. Stallman might be "awkward" but MIT doesn't confront him or even pull him to the side to tell him he's been rude. They don't stand up for the people he's hurt, they don't protect the people he's scared off. They don't ask for independent investigations into more serious allegations. This isn't about Stallman - it's not exactly about Epstein, Minsky, Negroponte, etc either. It's about the institution, the power structure, that protects people in certain positions at the expense of everyone else.
> How is Stallman doing FSF under threat here?

He resigned from the FSF presidency and board yesterday a few hours after my comment, which should answer that question.

>Morals only concern religion.

Morality is much broader than religion. A non-religious culture would have a moral guideline based on it's view on what is wrong and right. Likewise a non-religious philosophies have systems of morality. Religion is one driver of a societies morality although there's some chicken and egg questions in there (ie: is religion merely parroting a cultures pre-existing moral views). Laws, as I see it, are mostly attempts to codify a societies morality so that it can be enforced centrally and systematically instead of piece meal and locally.

I'm from the US and recently took a trip to UK for about a week. I was honestly surprised at the number of cameras strung up everywhere in the metro areas. Indeed the article states "The roughly 420,000 closed-circuit television cameras in London are more than in any other city except Beijing, equaling about 48 cameras per 1,000 people, more than Beijing." I did feel slightly safer knowing they were there however. The tolerance for surveillance there is already quite high it would seem.

The same `<'a>` name on all of the inputs and outputs tell the borrow checker that these things are related, i.e. they all borrow from the same thing.

The borrow checker tracks these annotations through all the scopes and function calls back to the "thing" they borrow from, and checks that nothing is borrowed for too long.

I think this particular case is trivial enough that the annotation could be omitted:

fn add(env: Env, args: &[Term]) -> Result<Term, Error> {

but in more complex cases where data from some arguments is returned, and from some it is not, it's useful to annotate which inputs/outputs are related and which aren't, so that the unrelated arguments can be temporary values without tainting everything else as temporary.
You meant "getting away with", which means "not being stopped/punished for". "Doing away with", as was pointed out, means to stop/abandon.
Not a physicist, but isn't the whole point of black hole that they can grow.

Once formed they tend to an equilibrium with their surrounding dictated by the balance mass-in/evaporation-out.

They are almost equivalent in everyday use, but in actual meaning, they are different.

"The projects" strictly refers to the building developments themselves, but is often used informally to refer to a poor neighborhood in general.

"The Ghetto" refers to a neighborhood of an urban area and not a particular building or group of buildings. "The projects" are often in the ghetto but not necessarily.

Saying "I grew up in the ghetto" and "I grew up in the projects" are more-or-less equivalent. Both only refer to urban areas; there is no such thing as a rural ghetto.
programming what?

web development has complexities related to legacy code and features as well as social and political factors.

The actual platform of "the web" is essentially an asynchronous remote-directory-listing-service.
We were originally supposed to use this to browse linked pages. This use case is trivially easy to learn about how to program. (HTML)

We have since gone and made it complicated, as people expect to load new content and have the page alter itself to fit the new content, all without loading the entire page from the server again. (against the way the web itself worked)

Additionally, trends and the need to waste cash in the form of "busy work" has led to people preferring to code in a pretend version of Javascript (ES6) that basically lies to you about what Javascript actually is and behaves like and this has led to perversions like front-end-build toolchains etc.

Getting a job in web development may require you to pay homage to such nonsense and pretend that you love over-complicating things in manners that bring more side-effects and pain than solutions.

If ones goal is employment in the sphere of web development, can one successfully suppress ones common sense and actual practical instincts sufficiently to ride along with this lemming-horde headed for the precipice?
Then WOW HEY! Front end "engineering" is for you!

If, on the other hand, political perversions of justice and decency make you sick, then you might wish to try anything else.

There are other ways to develop for the web, of course, but I'm speaking largely about the mainstream SV technologies and the mentalities behind them.
You should watch the series The Wire. It gives you great insight into projects.
National parks are generally massive. It's possible to visit the most stunning parts with a light touch, and for the broader ecosystem to endure in other areas. I don't think they need to be the same place within a park - e.g., endangered bird atop Delicate Arch, or bears on Clouds Rest.

Obviously we can impact the park from a distance too, but I'd say "destroys" is overly strong language for the respectful traveller I'm discussing. I suspect we damage it almost as much whether we step into the park or not with everything else we do collectively. Certainly a lot of the iconic geological scenery will survive our personal influence.
In other words, race as a category is bullshit.
Yes, this i would love to know. Is it? And what if you card her (knowing that if she’s in the bar in the US, she must be 21, otherwise she’s acting illegally), and she shows you a convincing fake id?
My bets here are the Russians probably were tracking the encrypted simplex (short range unit to unit) communications of the FBI's counterintelligence teams. I believe even in 2012 those would have been simplex Project-25 (P25) digital voice encrypted with AES-256.

If the Russians simply sent out a subject they suspected of being watched by the counter intelligence teams and then had their own teams monitor for encrypted P25 simplex comms within the general vicinity of the subject, they would know that the subject was indeed being watched.

Even though it's almost certain that the Russians were not able to actually decrypt AES-256 P25 transmissions, there are a number of key meta-data variables in the FBI's simplex P25 communications that would be available. The Unit ID of the portable radio, and the current KeyID of the AES-256 encryption. Presumably, the counter-intel teams had their own personnel assigned radios which have unique P25 unit IDs, and most likely had their own team unique AES encryption keys loaded into the radios.

If you couple the ability to monitor each of those metadata variables with knowing that simplex communications are short range (local to just you) and even employ some rudimentary DF (direction finding) capabilities into the equation, and it would be very simple for the Russians to determine which of their assets were being tracked by the FBIs counter-intel teams, and even possibly which individual agents were part of the tracking and close to the target (by cross-referencing P25 unit IDs)

On the upside it probably doesn't need to work on 3G anyways. The reason being if your spins are out of order and coming in 300ms chunks you probably aren't worried about troubleshooting the latency anymore, you've been made aware the connection is never going to be high quality, that the delay is low-300ms depending on chunking interval, and that you have packet reordering.

The challenge is: there is ample evidence that misogyny (and similar offenses) has been unacceptable for years, but it continues. Part of the me-to movement, the election of Trump, ( and the Epstein blowback) is that we need to just stop.

A way to (maybe) reconcile consumer and publisher expectation would be to offer an ebook to physical book service.

Sell the eBook for about the same price as a paperback but let the buyer exchange the eBook for a physical book for a fee that depends on the requested quality. Paperbacks would be something like $1 (fair since you already paid for the same price as the paperback), but a hardcover could be $10 or so.
