The same is true of most genres of music that were really popular during a specific time period. Punk rock arguably was constrained to the late 70s, but you can still find artists who are arguably punk rock.

Genres are a fuzzy classification and time periods are not really the best way to nail down a genre. I guess it sort of works to identify the start of a genre (if you ignore a couple of outliers like Gesualdo who was doing Chromaticism waaaay back in the Renaissance period) since artists copy each other (and copy general trends), and technology / theory can also be a component.

I guess you can tentatively identify a beginning of an artistic movement. But an artistic movement only really dies when no-one cares about it, at which point no-one really cares when it finished.
ah, yeah. duh. sorry, haven't contemplated the region much lately.
A couple things this argument is missing are hard numbers and also adoption of the affordable care act which requires health insurance and provides subsidized alternatives. Completely abstract hand waving that does not refer to actual charges or spending or legal context is unlikely to have much application to this complex problem.

You mean, they insist you have to use Equifax, lose the deal, then then wonder what’s for lunch in the cafeteria today. Or most likely of all, every lender insists you have to use Equifax, and the people you interact with have no authority to even run your request up a management chain, let alone actually honor it.

Did they program a crawler searching for medical data specifically? Unfortunately I did not find any answer.

I don't know about Amazon UK, but pretty damn sure my Amazon DE (Germany) is similar. Degraded. I used to shop a lot on Amazon a decade ago. Now I am losing time scrolling through search results filled with garbage sellers which get promoted in the results. In the past year I went with Amazon Choice 3 times and got low quality products. I go to other online stores for electronics and other stuff. I only buy books on Amazon now.
There's a few places in the Chicagoland area that serve Börek (I see it spelled Burek here also). The one closest to me offers fillings of ground beef, spinach and feta, mushrooms, or potato. They are all very good.

Which is why I didn't say "Raising prices deters the poor." I think reading it in good faith covers things and that my intent was clear? Really, it's not going to help encourage anyone that is price sensitive for whatever personal reason and would be quite easily criticised. I think if you are going to respect the environment, you should have every right to witness the best of our planet.
The Vice article has the original emails and still purposefully misquotes them.

I think its nowadays quite easy to get into but hard to master everything. I believe especially web development is a lot of trial and error. There are just too many tools and programs to work with. You should probably start with one language (maybe PHP or Javascript) and see if it solves your issue. For web development you will definitely need some CSS and HTML skills to get it started, but IMO that is probably the easier part.

Good luck!

I agree with this, at least. It is very easy to be misunderstood in a textual medium like the internet, where people have very little (or no) context about you or how you express yourself.

You call your solution self-censorship, but I just kinda think it's general common sense: why do you feel the need to broadcast your views to a large, unknown audience on controversial subjects where misunderstandings cause a lot of trouble for you? There are plenty of other real-world places to discuss things that don't carry that risk, and likely some more-private places on the internet where you can join an actual community of people who will get to know you over time and understand what you say in context.

Put another way: most people wouldn't randomly walk up to a group of 10 strangers on the street and immediately bring up a controversial topic. Why do we think that's a good move on the internet?

I think we're starting to see the social limits of instant around-the-world communication. It just doesn't work as well as we want it to. The internet is still ridiculously new to the world, and our understanding of its social nuances is still in its infancy.
Another option is used in Arches. For Fiery Furnace, if you want to go in without a ranger-led guided tour, you need to pay $6 for a permit, and there are a maximum number issued. In addition, you need to watch an orientation video and then answer some basic questions about it. It's trivial for those who are interested but might limit the place getting flooded at least.
@wenbin - What would also be helpful is a P&L report on all of these expenses - as that will also tell us a great story.. and it would make a nice Part Deux ;-)
Nothing comes out of a black hole, so we can't get observations from the inside.

(There are nit-picky theoretical ways in which a black hole can evaporate, keyword "Hawking Radiation", but as far as I know that hasn't been observed, because it's too weak and too far away. But even then we learn about its surface/event horizon, not its inside).

> state-directed economies have been an environmental catastrophe

Yes, although that's primarily because the state had directed it towards industrialisation. Centralised control would make large scale efforts towards any national goal easier to achieve.

Carbon taxes are a great idea - Australia was ahead of the curve on that one until the right killed it once they gained power.
Good people don't want to hurt people. Corollary: People who want to hurt people who hurt people, might want to do it because they like hurting people.
> At some point, most Internet protocol privacy issues boil down to who you're willing to leak information to (which is to say, who you choose to trust).

Except in practice, you as an end-user seldomly have enough information or knowledge to determine if you should trust an entity or not - in fact, is often already expert knowledge to know how many entities are involved.

Which is why practically, this question is decided by who has the most power - such as Mozilla in this case deciding all their users should trust Cloudflare.

You're absolutely right, in the end, trust is what everything boils down to. I'd consider this an open issue and one of the root causes of many of the internet's problems.

So wait, based on what I'm reading in this post, a saner opinion is getting into a debate about the definition of the words sexual assault on a mailing list? I understand people thinking there is a right way and a wrong way to express disillusionment with a particular person, however, what you're doing here is misleading at best.
I'm not really sure why you're expressing derision towards people that don't want sexual assault trivialized.
I dunno, I feel like reading these types of posts, which are prevalent in this thread, that I have less and less in common with people on Hacker News. Also it's not a bad thing to want social justice, no matter how many times you type SJW.
RMS's take was really dumb. He may not be the right fit for the job. The example you gave with the boxer was a really good comparison, but for him to handle the topic that way is so incredibly tone-deaf and frankly, stupid.
The point is it doesn't really matter what he advocates. He's using his position of power (given to him to promote Free Software) to push his controversial political opinions instead. It doesn't matter if those opinions are right or wrong. What matters is they are controversial and that he's using his platform to express those opinions.

If he said this anonymously or in private it would've been fine. The problem is him using his platform for stuff that it's not meant to be used for. So now they're taking away his platform. Seems fair to me.

didn't see this in the article but I recall an x-15 story I read as a kid. seems after a landing the plane was being inspected and engineers noticed a burn hole that took out part of a real stabilizer and all the way through the airframe and fuel tank. Fortunately, the fuel tank was already empty when it happened.

the story may just be X-15 folklore but my child self was impressed haha

The problem with that approach is that self-driving companies have their models trained for their specific hardware, which will differ a lot and make the data incompatible. The only way around that would be to enforce a standard platform, similar to what happens in racing, leaving the differences between competitors to the software that drives it.
Fathoms are usually used for depth.

I'd be more inclined to use leagues, which, when used at sea, in the English-speaking world, are usually three nautical miles or five point five five six kilometers.

So about 5.39 leagues across.

Since we use ships when we go to space and sea, I like the idea that space ships are naval.
Commodification of nature. Get in the car, drive for a while, do something for 2 to 4 hours, get back in the car and drive back. In this case the activity consists of walking, but the summit/lookout/whatever can't be more than 6-7km away from the road. It has nothing to do with preservation.

Let me share a case I am familiar with. One of my favorite short walks in my grandparents' town used to be one where you had to walk ~2km through fields, then a steep ascend of ~4km on a difficult rocky trail, then another ~2km through a nice pine forest to finally reach a beautiful lookout.

Then someone somewhere decided that it was a good idea to build a paved road so people didn't have to walk the first 6km.

To the benefit of who? Certainly not the environment: the construction of the road, polluting cars, garbage, soil erosion at the sides of the road from cars parking there...

It didn't provide any benefit for the people that walked there. Now you can hear cars going up and down while you walk. Some places are littered with waste material from the road's construction, and at some points you actually have to cross the road.

The people that drive up there also admit that while the place is ideal to go with kids, it is so crowded that it makes the experience miserable.

Finally, it didn't create a continuous economic revenue for anyone, since the lands are public and the town doesn't charge any fee. There are only a handful of shops in town and they have not seen an increase in consumption.

So what was the point of all it? Did we wreck a beautiful mountain and forest so that a construction company could pocket a few million euros?
Definitely worth your trip to Dayton Ohio at the National Museum of the Air Force to see this plane in person. It’s on the floor so you can see it up close. I believe the other one at the Air and Space Museum is hung above.

Literally hell.
I've read the same emails and I agree with the previous comment. Despite english not being my mother tongue, it is clear what RMS is saying and there's no room for interpretating his words differently without misinterpreting or changing what he meant.

RMS words can not do massive injustice as they are words not judges, besides his words are actually expressing an attempt to correct a perceived injustice of misqualifying some accusation toward a dead guy that cannot defend himself.

Actually the headlines fits exactly the point RMS is making, that if she was forced, Epstein was the one not Minsky. Then again do not stop at the headline, read the whole article and read the source used for the article, there is no mention of the use of force, the only mentions of her being forced to have sex are with different persons and contradicts her earlier 2011 allegations (page 33). The part mentioning Minsky does not even confirm she actually had sex with him, only that she was sent to by Ms Maxwell (page 182).
So I guess you are right there's absolutely no question here, but not in the direction that would fit your narrative and opinion.
Having the wrong opinion about certain topics is getting more expensive

This is an excellent point. More and more, there is no middle ground in consequences. Nothing like a suspension? or leave of absence etc. I don't recall how things used to be but I really lament the lack of some sort of gradient scale for punishment.
Without entering to discuss Stallman's role as a historic figure and his original work as a developer, I think it's about time we had a change in leadership and public figures.

Stallman pretty much embodies the worst stereotypes about software developers, engineers and "computer guys" in general (black-and-white attitude, lack of social skills, bluntness, even hygiene issues). It's really baffling, considering that his role right now is in a pretty much PR and evangelism.

I still feel bad for him, I honestly believe he is a well meaning person with issues that aren't his fault. But the community as a whole really needs to move past him, I think, and project a wildly different image.

Interview with Alex Wellerstein on Nukemap VR
I think at the end of the day you just have to take that risk. Or not. It's up to you. I think the majority of the time that you accidentally say something stupid or are misunderstood, it's in a fairly low-stakes situation, so a simple apology will suffice. But when you're a public figure with power over people and ideologies, you have to be a lot more careful about where you choose to engage.

Arguably the (male) head of the Free Software movement has no place debating the definition of "sexual assault" or "statutory rape" in a conversation about a human trafficker and child abuser. His opinions there have zero value (not to mention that a debate over such definitions is missing the point entirely), and engaging in that conversation -- even to come to the defense of his tangentially-related dead friend -- was a very poor choice, even for someone known to be contentious and often misunderstood.
The "correct" conversion to (modern) miles would be 20, both because 30 has only one significant digit and because it makes more sense to round 18.x to 20 than to 15.
That's a deliberate misreading of me. I can find concrete fault in what he wrote. To demonstrate the fault would require engaging in a discussion on the merits of his argument, which I have no interest in doing. (I'm on the mailing list, if I had an interest in doing so, I would have replied there, where it's productive, not here.)
Probably true for most people, people often Lie about motivations on surveys.
It was probably an order or two of magnitude worse in the seventies and eighties, and somewhat tied in with deprivation and NF racism of those decades. Dutch and British supporters were notorious for it. My father and uncles wouldn't take me to matches as a young 'un. Had they been interested and old enough, I'd have pretty comfortable taking my kids in the nineties.

By the nineties there was just a dwindling hard core minority of hooligans, that were starting to become removed from the clubs. Same for the international element, it had become some thugs being thugs, and mostly separated from grounds, matches and the general support. They tagged along with the footie event, for a good punch up in a city bar or city square. From a point of view of "everyone well behaved" it remained a problem. From a point of view of hundreds or thousands of opposing supporters kicking off, it was mostly solved.

Prevention isn't news, but arresting someone preparing a bomb, or caught on a bus with a machete on their way to wherever is. Yet for all the additional surveillance...
>The entire point why paedophilia is considered an awful act is because a child is not mature enough to give consent for such action.

Then why its fine to force a child to go to school? They can't consent to that either.
We know that current theory predicts singularity, which is most likely incorrect.
This has nothing to do with 'SJWs' unless you're implying that 'statutory rape is bad' is a political stance of the far-left. I think it's much more likely you're clinging to buzzwords.
The point is that it doesn't really matter what anyone actually says or thinks. If they are in the public sphere and holds power they will be got at for some hurt.

Truth doesn't count if the thing hurts someone. Intent doesn't count if harm was caused. This is a view that many here would seem absurd but which many here would also agree with.

Does this still seem fair? Is truth and intent not that important when it comes to tricky issues?
Has anyone tested this out on a real network?

I imagine that it won't work at all when you combine something like 3G (with random periods of hundreds of milliseconds of no packets delivered and them all queueing up), with a little packet reordering.

The 'spin' will end up measuring half, 1/3, or 1/4 the original RTT. The issue won't resolve until the connection ends up idle for at least 1 RTT.

you seem to assume there was assault from Minsky on Giufre, and I wonder where you get that idea.

I'm part of the people who do not want sexual assault trivialized and for that to happen not making inconsiderate use of the term is important to not strip it of its meaning.

After having read the court documentation, I have yet to see any evidence that Minsky assaulted Giufre, heck there's not even any indication he did have sex with her, only that she was directed to by Ms. Maxwell.

RMS tried to do opposite of trivialising - to get facts straight and put proper blame on each person involved.

Everyone includes justice. Including bad actors who shouldn't be blamed for what they didn't do. Judging everyone for they actually did is the true social justice.

Discarding the legacy is the most direct way to stand out against the backdrop of centuries, which is why I believe the modernist architecture came to be - there was no room in the hall of fame for the new generation of architects, so they burned down the place and called it art.

Incidentally, many software frameworks, languages, and processes share the same traits.
