Agreed. The line ought to be drawn at personal attacks against her. She's 16, a child, personally attacking her is disgusting behavior.

By that same token, I also don't care what a 16 y.o. has to say about the state of the world. I just turned 25 a few months ago. Over the past 9 years, since I was 16, I've watched my cognitive abilities continually expand and now have a good feeling for just how ignorant I was when I was 16. I have no idea why this girl was let on stage to begin with and even less of an idea why it's news.

Almost as disgusting as the personal attacks are the people whose decision it was to prop up a child on the global stage, for all the world to attack and criticize her, all to advance their political agenda. Gross.
That's an interesting idea. Definitely worth thinking about. An R&D monastery, where the inhabitants support each other by rotating duties and service for day-to-day life, with dedication to science, engineering and philosophy. Sounds great to me.

The one thing that's holding me back on actually using Pi-Hole is the lack of flexibility. What I'd really like to see is the ability to do various things on a per-client basis.

For example, one commenter wanted a simple "reload without blocking" functionality and the response was to use a bookmarklet plus the Pi-Hole API to disable it temporarily. This works, but the problem is that it disables it temporarily for everyone and will inevitably result in "Hey, why's the ad blocker broken?" "Oh, sorry, that was me" conversations.

Likewise, I'd also like to be able to configure block lists on a per-client basis. I don't want any Facebook stuff (for example) to resolve from my devices, but my girlfriend wants to use Facebook.

Similarly, I may want different rules on different networks. For example, I may want to restrict what my IoT network can resolve differently than my regular user network. This is really just a generalization of doing things on a per-client basis.

Currently the only solution to these types of problems is to maintain multiple Pi-Hole installations. This isn't a big deal if it's just one or two, but it doesn't scale reasonably.
Same for me. It can be fun sitting on a tram and hearing teens/youths speaking in Finnish with English interjected somewhat randomly:

It feels fitting to me to see a young person who'll still be around in the year 2100 (along with their children) berating politicians who are making all the decisions yet won't be around to live in the consequences of their choices if the world heats up 5C or more.

I don't understand the mindset of older people who either deny climate change or do nothing about it - do they not care about the world their children are going to live in?

I get that rich people will be shielded from the worst of climate change but at some point don't you get rich enough that other things become more important? Or at that stage does it become all about competing with peers to accumulate power?

The question is, is it acceptable to tolerate someones bad deeds because the benefits of doing so is greater than the harm.
Strengths of a Mean Stack App Development Company
The article author doesn't seem to have kids. I do. The elementary kids leverage Alexa for arithmetic and spelling. This is why their spelling is awful and they complain about the math teacher forcing them to "show their work". Alexa ruins spelling education but not arithmetic, as long as the teacher isn't lazy about requiring explanations and multiple lines of proof of doing it by hand. The teens use wolfram alpha to learn how to do algebra, and graph, so given the answer, they use their crappy calculator which hasn't changed since I was in HS to get the same result as wolfram provided, so they can pass tests.

Another oddity that indicates the journalist has no kids, is making it an amazing invention in 2011 that a Yale guy is the first human to ever notice income inequality, which is comedic to read. Both in the 90s and today, classrooms always have a basket of calculators for either forgetful or poor kids to use. Also the school library. Of course a borrowed calc will not have special notes hidden in them...

Much like cursive, nobody uses calculators after school. Even the last few genx I know have given up on balancing checkbooks using calculators. Actually the only people I know who still balance checkbooks the old fashioned way are boomer and older and they're literally dying out. With everything paid online, I only have maybe one or two checks per month to "balance" and that doesn't require a protocol and algorithm to "balance".
Simulations and modelling is used to try and extrapolate trends to be predictive. And that is important, especially give the problems we are having right now. If people don't believe there are problems relating to climate change it is only because they aren't focusing on the right problem.

And why do we have this modelling? Because we are trying to understand where we are heading based on historical data trends [0]. It is a wonderfully hand-drawn infographic sourcing those cold hard facts [1].

You can't show up with thugs and take something you don't know exists. Sure you could go door to door looking for whatever your after (be that people or property) but that scales inefficiently and the false positive rate will be so high it will probably provoke a revolt. In practice registration is a necessary precursor to the government showing up and taking something unless the government can get people's neighbors to rat on each other (good luck with that).

Governments have killed a lot of people and stolen a lot of property over the years. People are justified in being very weary of the government knowing who they are and what they have.

The first 20yr of the USSR are probably a better point of comparison than the holocaust but whatever.

Hi, thanks a lot. The thing is that if I were to put a price on my work for on $10/hour, my compensation could reach $10.000, maybe even more and the co-founder would never pay me anything close to that. I actually don't see him paying me even $1000.

The thing is that I think it's pretty possible that he will sell the startup in the coming months - the startup itself may not be worth much right now, but since our programmers took far less than they should have, the source code has some value.

Lol you don't understand how knowledge can be shared between two or more parties without one of them making a profit? Am I reading this right?
You can hardly call the policies socialist, because there is no coherent thinking behind any of the policies.

Rather, the current government’s actions seem to be driven solely by the government’s electoral needs of the day.

New election coming up? Announce huge “socialist” policies promising free stuff to a lot of people.

Massive foreign rally where the economy will be a rallying point coming up, but your markets are at a low and falling? Announce a huge “capitalist” 10% corporate tax rate cut that boosts the markets and doesn’t throw a dampener on your rally.
Oh this is great. Thanks!!
> it's not anyone's duty to filter their worldview out of their speech.

Based on the former comments its sad because that is what seems to be happening. The SJW thought police will come for your heart and soul. I notice most conservatives are... Highly conservative about their world views being shared these days.

The amount of blind and not willing to ever listen hatred I see and hear these days is astonishing. I listen to both sides and I find it dumb we fall into the illusion that there is only a red or blue pill and that whatever we choose is right and everyone else is in the Matrix. That is so wrong it hurts. Theres no way to squeeze the needs and beliefs of 300m people into 1 political party.

On the other hand I accepted these truths long ago and realize its not my responsibility to stress too harshly over them. This is why I can survive social media. My views are my right. People used to say I may not agree with you but I will fight for your right to say it to the death. I am sure most people wouldnt nowadays till its too late and the government controls speech again.
I've been using screen for closer to 20 years, and switched a couple of months ago. Still undecided.

My major painpoint might seem minor, but: If you're using the default ctrl+a meta in screen, and usually keep ctrl pressed when cycling through screen windows, it will take some getting used to tmux as you need to release ctrl as it will otherwise read it as another combination.

Most other stuff is configurable to your liking, though I prefer adapting to new defaults to evaluate the mindset behind the tools.

It's otherwise less different than I imagined, and I'm not sure how much you'll gain from the switch. Unless tmux gurus know a lot of cool secrets that I don't.
I shuddered when I saw what a 4 letter word got mutilated into

originally (russian) it was Борщ

And coincidentally Borš in estonian.

And in dutch it became borsjtsjsch? How? Why? Why do you need 8 letters to transmit a single phonem?

No wonder dutch can construct these weird word combos.

Edit, nvm, apparently last sch belongs to next word. Still creepy
I look at what the industry has allowed itself become and cringe.
The dichotomy is real, and you are comparing apples and oranges.

Yes, there are white separatist paramilitaries operating within the United States who have cropped up in reaction to affirmative action and social justice, but it won't blow up the same way the black panthers did. It's apples and oranges, because today's U.S. white separatist paramilitary groups are not targets of the U.S. government. The FBI isn't assassinating members of the Aryan Brotherhood nor are politicians passing gun control laws to curb the flow of weapons into their territories. The U.S. government is not actively persecuting white supremacists. There is no COINTELPRO for white supremacists.

There is no escalation here, no conflict. Nazis get a free lunch in the U.S.

Not just charge by the minute on the service, how about the long distance charges to call the nearest access number?

In my case, San Juan (70 miles, mostly busy) and Miami (1000 miles) or New Jersey (1600 miles, same price but better connections because undersea cables land there). It introduced a pattern of irresponsible spending habits that continues to this day.

Separate VLANs is the right answer.

Phoning home is not an Amcrest-specific thing, all of my cameras (I have a handful of Amcrest and D-Link cameras, and one Reolink camera) try to do that. I've put them all in a separate VLAN which can't access anything, not even DNS. The NVR software lives on a different VLAN and is able to open connections to the cameras for recording.

This setup works perfectly. Most importantly, the cameras all work fine even if they can't phone home.
Were those two examples labeled by the same people? If there really is systematic bias why don’t they mention some statistics? For example, 90% of white people lacked a race tag while 80% of black people had one?

Also, it doesn’t seem like there has been any evil intent here, nor did I see anything about pernicious consequences. It seems a bit overblown to accuse people of racism over something that is unintended and theoretical. Just update the tags.
> the few, heavily qualified glimmers of hope that I see, tend to have more to do with technology and energy economics than with policy

That's because the only glimmers of hope we currently have are pure wishful thinking. Pointing toward accelerated technological change is pointing towards the non-existing, and of course that can be hopeful, but it's not guaranteed to change anything. The only real change is not hopeful, because we know it won't happen, but it's what would work: drastic reduction in carbon footprint worldwide through policy.

So we cling on to what might happen, and might work: the magic device, the magic technology, the iPhone of the climate apocalypse, the thing that will solve our issue. We don't need a thing, we need less things, less carbon in the atmosphere and the unavoidable slowdown of the fossil fueled economy it brings with it.
Interesting points. I'd say creative destruction is as volatile as it gets and 1% might be pretty large. On 95% of this planet the odds of creating a unicorn are about zero. Questions: How many 100B+ firms are there? How many arrived in the 'old economy'? How many failures for each ramen, for each SME, ..., for each unicorn?

In my opinion it's enormously unusual to find a product market where 100B in future profits are up for grabs and a testament to mans inventiveness that we are even having this discussion. In a competitive market I'd expect the chance of a unicorn to approach zero. And it doesn't! It's awesome and takes a whole lot of failure.

On the side of the investors I'd be in the boat thinking it's more of a lottery than a skill, but these funds seem to prove otherwise so while I wouldn't invest in them and caution my company to be careful, I hope my pension fund is in them, a little.
How do you define risk?

At her age, and probably even more now, I'd be scared about how the media, politicians, neighbours, peers, and social media would treat me after such a speech.

I'm in the same boat right now. Our first is due at the end of October.

Generally, my wife and I feel as prepared as we can be. We've been fortunate to see most of our friends have children over the past 5-6 years. Like @Lastofus mentioned below, we saw a huge variance in both the children and the parenting styles.

For me, the best things I've learned come from our friends that are teachers. We've seen a level of patience and consistency with them that we haven't seen in others. They also made a concerted effort to regularly engage with questions, quizzes, reading and playing music. It did a lot to keep the kids engaged and learning early.

We've also been happy with how supportive and generous our friends have been. Definitely lean on them with questions as you're prepping. And they'll also likely have a ton of stuff to pass down, so take advantage of that. Just trying to pick a baby seat is one of the most confusing exercises, and our friends saved us hours of hassle with some simple advice and recommendations between two.

Good luck to you!
omg...thank you, this is like browsing a new internet =)!

I'm not sure how it would work in this case in the US, but we're from Europe - my 40% will stay 40% forever.

Croatia is also regressing back towards middle ages, with a huge influence from the church on politics and everyday life. There are the Croatia-Vatican agreements whereby the church is guaranteed hundreds of millions in funding from the tax payers and there is religious education (catechism) as a regular school subject in public schools. Many monumental churches are being built, and it is well known many priests drive nice cars and live a comfortable, dare I say lavish, lifestyle.

Here is one example in Knin, one of the poorest towns in the country.

> Situated at the site of an old bolt and screw factory, 3 million euros has been invested to construct the Gospe Velikog Hrvatskog Krsnog Zavjeta (Our Lady of the Great Croatian Baptismal Vow) Church in Knin (Šibenik-Knin County). The 1,024 square-metre Church will seat over 700 people when finished, making it Croatia’s largest Church.

I understand ignoring her goes counter to your notion of justice, and this is somehow fair play. You have every right to doubt her, but you should realise it doesn't matter.

No matter how much doubt you could reveal about her person, you will never see a headline:

She doesn't matter, and any attack on her will be seen as petty at best by those who only read the articles.

Any effort expended on her could have been expended on dispelled one of the falsehoods being propagated about rms.
