Assange and his attorneys have, from day one, done everything possible to extend the process; there is nothing coincidental about the result.

> ... kind of like Guantanamo.

Guantanamo is a whole different problem, where people have actually received all the process there is, been determined to be innocent or not even subject to a y charges, and are still detained.
A study never proves anything. A p-value only tells you how likely the results are by random chance. Presumably, the companies were chosen beforehand. It is unlikely to have happened by chance that it beats for 37 companies. That’s different then selecting the companies after the results.
Yeah ICBM’s, which are hypersonic. Pretty much nothing can reliably guard against a first strike. Maybe a retaliatory strike.
That's a legal question for the court to decide. I wouldn't say that there's anything "clear" about it.

If you actually read the article on the McKinnon case, you'll see that extradition was ultimately refused by the home secretary - not the courts - on largely compassionate grounds:

"Mr McKinnon is accused of serious crimes. But there is also no doubt that he is seriously ill [...] He has Asperger's syndrome, and suffers from depressive illness. Mr McKinnon's extradition would give rise to such a high risk of him ending his life that a decision to extradite would be incompatible with Mr McKinnon's human rights."
It was like 40 or 50, but yeah the points stands, it was still like two orders of magnitude smaller than any other 10+ billion dollar exit we’ve ever seen.

I knew it needed an update. It was a high-speed HDMI bug that required a software update. I learned about it via internet searching.

https://ironcast.tv maybe? I want to buy a new TV in the next few weeks and I'm really tempted, but worried about this being a Kickstarter project and the display quality not being up to par.
Even if you believe that, it doesn’t answer my question. What information was forged by Russia?
Tesla could relatively rapidly release a comparable competitor if it becomes obvious they are losing a large market share for certain segment.
And then the next generation will have signed firmware that doesn't allow the device to start until the spy packets go out and the response is received.

We need to kill these companies and their business models. As fun as it is for smart people like us to perform one-off lobotomies, it doesn't solve the problem.
Some possibilities:

* customers might have complained that the site didn't work on mobile when the desktop site was requested; this may have led to a burden on their support team, and a manager might have decided to block usage instead of fielding support requests

* a team internally might have been spending a lot of time chasing down bugs for desktop on mobile, and a manager decided to officially not support desktop on mobile; instead of just stopping support or carefully triaging tickets (e.g. distinguishing desktop on mobile from desktop), they just decided to block desktop on mobile access

* a team might have been burdened by being required to fix all bugs that came in; instead of dealing with the problem properly (e.g. continuing to allow desktop on mobile but not officially supporting it), they officially killed support to avoid having to work on it

* there could be some KPM to reduce bug reports over some period of time; they killed access to the non-supported use-case of desktop on mobile to make numbers look better

Not really a smart decision in any of these cases, kind of stupid, honestly; but not really nefarious either and the kind of decision that can be made sometimes at a larger place with politics.

The article's original title is much more readable than this post's title.
The Senate is not meant to be representation by population - it is representation by geography. A different slice of the country that isn't undemocratic.

Since both houses of congress need to agree on a bill, both of those different slices need to agree to pass a law.

>Such "boost-glide" systems, as they are known (Avangard appears to be one of these), are launched like a traditional ballistic missile, but instead of following an arc high above the atmosphere, the re-entry vehicle is put on a trajectory that allows it to enter Earth's atmosphere quite quickly, before gliding, un-powered, for hundreds or thousands of kilometres. [ ... ] Indeed the glide vehicle's trajectory, "surfing along the edge of the atmosphere" as one expert put it to me recently ...

Almost a century later we're still implementing weapons program as conceived by Nazis. In case of Avangard even the gliding phase speed of 20 Mach is the same as in the Nazi design :

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silbervogel

"The design was a significant one, as it incorporated new rocket technology and the principle of the lifting body, foreshadowing future development of winged spacecraft such as the X-20 Dyna-Soar of the 1960s and the Space Shuttle of the 1970s. In the end, it was considered too complex and expensive to produce. The design never went beyond mock-up test.

The Silbervogel was intended to fly long distances in a series of short hops. The aircraft was to have begun its mission propelled along a 3 km (2 mi) long rail track by a large rocket-powered sled to about 1,930 km/h (1,200 mph). Once airborne, it was to fire its own rocket engine and continue to climb to an altitude of 145 km (90 mi), at which point it would be travelling at about 21,800 km/h (13,500 mph). It would then gradually descend into the stratosphere, where the increasing air density would generate lift against the flat underside of the aircraft, eventually causing it to "bounce" and gain altitude again, where this pattern would be repeated. Because of aerodynamic drag, each bounce would be shallower than the preceding one, but it was still calculated that the Silbervogel would be able to cross the Atlantic, deliver a 4,000 kg (8,800 lb) bomb to the continental United States"
Yeah, multi threading on a modern processor basically seems like witch craft to me.

I pay for a ton of products and services that still siphon my private data and serve me ads. The problem is that companies will try to squeeze as much value as they can out of their customers, whether they pay or not.
Yes, I know someone who did that, although for a different reason (to reduce lag).
I'm looking for a new TV and I started with looking for a dumb TV but I came to the conclusion that 4k HDR isn't supported by Nvidia Shield for Youtube and Netflix.

Only option to get that is to use the built in smart features of the TV. So even using external boxes you don't get all the latest hardware support for video codecs.
They great thing about Wikileaks is that the data speaks for itself. I don’t care at all about Assange’s personality but I’m very thankful the information he put out there is available to the public. He’s exposed tons of corruption.
This is the argument that I don't think is valid, though. When folks switch on "Desktop Site" in an Android browser, they expect that things will be squished, and that the site isn't optimized for the screen size. They just do it (or rather I just do it) because I want the full set of features, even if I need to do a bunch of zooming and scrolling around.

That is, Slack should still focus on making the website for the best large screen experience, but they shouldn't go out of their way to do somewhat sneaky stuff to detect my "Desktop" browser is really coming from my phone.
I totally agree that a big factor in income differences is due to cultural biases that favor degree holders. I don’t think degrees are economically zero value though, for example patents are primarily held by inventors with postgraduate degrees, and more businesses are started by degree holders.

I’m not really sure how to answer your first part, I’m not trying to talk past anyone, but I feel like people are responding to my point that the income premium is what matters to the student loan program by repeating the conclusion of the paper that the wealth premium is going to zero.

The income premium and the wealth premium in this paper are two different things, and even though people with degrees might end up having net zero additional wealth accumulation at the end of their lives, that doesn’t mean the student loan program is also net zero, or that people with and without degrees have the same lifestyle.

The student loan program gets to make it’s money back before degree holders get to save the money, so the income premium matters to the government more than the wealth premium, when figuring out whether forgiving loans is worth it or not.
Sorry - were the claims that David Soloff was behind T&C actually made by Wikileaks? Your link provides no evidence of that fact that I see, and from a brief perusal of the primary sources, I don't see Wikileaks ever making that claim either.

But consumers are not being informed that they’ve bought a subsidized tv. For example, Several salespeople have told me in the past few weeks that none of their TVs serve ads. Looking deeper into the TVs the salesperson was clearly wrong. Few consumers even know to ask the question. Even fewer know that the sales guy is wrong.
Nothing prevents you from presenting that same SSID as a honeypot.
> A basic file transfer is very simple: Start Ncat in listen mode on one end, start Ncat in connect mode on the other end, and pipe the file over the connection. There are two ways to do this that differ only in which end listens, the sender or the receiver. Sometimes you can't create a listening socket on one end of the transfer because of a lack or permissions, NAT, or filtering. As long as you can listen on at least one end, though, you can use this technique.[1]

This works with most if not all netcat implementations.

> The basic file transmission technique described at the beginning of this section fails if neither participating host is capable of listening, or the two hosts can't communicate directly. This situation has become common with the prevalence of network address translation. A way to work around it is to use a third host as an intermediary. The intermediate host listens in connection brokering mode and the other two hosts connect to it. Recall from the section called “Connection Brokering” that in connection brokering mode any input received on one socket is copied and sent out to all other sockets. With just two hosts connected this is especially simple: anything coming from one host gets forwarded to the other. This example shows host1 sending inputfile to outputfile on host2, using host3 as an intermediary.[1]

This works nicely with Nmap's Ncat.

Niiice. Gonna watch tonight I hope.

I'd return it and get a different manufacturer.
Unfortunately, the image quality of computer monitors pale in comparison to modern TVs. I recently switched from a Dell P4317Q to an old Samsung Q7 for my gaming monitor, and the quality (contrast, colors) improvement is profound, even without any HDR content. When we’re talking about HDR, they’re not even on the same playing field.

And that’s an old Samsung TV. On top of that, Samsung’s current flagships are among the worst TVs right now vs the competing major brands’ flagships (because all the best are now OLED, and Samsung is the only hold-out).

Even the improvement from a Samsung Q90 (which I had for a few weeks) to LG C9 OLED has to be seem to be believed. On some content, the improvement is drastic.

The technological progress of modern OLED TVs vs LED LCD is practically magical, when viewing good HDR content. If you go for an old panel for the sake of privacy, you’re either going to be sorely disappointed or blissfully ignorant of what your missing.

I would much rather buy a modern model and figure out how to disable the radios, if I was this worried about privacy.

We aren't going to move to dependently-typed languages based around theorem proving anytime soon. The reason is simple: those languages don't support normal industry development practices, where you don't have time to spend 10x the time on verification as you do on development. (They do support development practices favored by the US Department of Defense, which is perhaps part of the reason why research into such type systems attracts DARPA grants.)

Where such languages may have a future is for proving some kernel of core infrastructure code correct, where the code has such a high value to size ratio that spending the time to prove it correct may cross the line into economic viability. SeL4 is a high-profile example of this. Another example that's been on my mind over the years could be proving the unsafe code in the Rust standard library correct. The latter would be interesting because it would address the criticism of "well, there's unsafe code in libstd, how can you say Rust is safe?" without burdening regular Rust users (not standard library developers) with all the baggage of a complex type system.
For me, as I got older, lost passion for what I had been doing for 20 years - and being on the old end of the ageism-specrum-stick... it is hard to deal with.

I have left 'Silicon Valley Tech' -- as I am no longer interested in any of the things I did before and seek positions which are more fulfilling in other industries and pay about 25% of what I used to make...
Yeah I think the innovation here is in the business model, not the engineering.

I really do like the four motor design on the Rivian platform though. It opens up a lot of possibilities for improved performance/handling/safety and off-road capability. The 'tank turn' demo is kind of a gimmick but also not - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzwM8KE2L3I

> On Monday, Rivian announced it had raised $1.3 billion in its fourth funding round of the year, led by T. Rowe Price, bringing its total for 2019 to nearly $2.9 billion.

> Rivian has been quietly developing vehicles for a decade, but it seized the industry’s attention in late 2018, when it unveiled a pair of eye-catching, high-end electric trucks.

Rivian raised $2.9 billion over four funding rounds in the span of one year? And it's been around for a full decade without ever releasing a product?

Does this not set off alarm bells?

You might be surprised to find that many doctors fall into the very description in this article. Higher calling is a social construct and the reality is being a physician is a _lot_ of hours, a lot of BS, and a lot of patients who need self help more than your help.

As mentioned above, this has to be a very small number of users who are sophisticated enough to bother instructing chrome to request the desktop site.

This is one of the big reasons I bought a projector instead of a large tv. Because all the large(r) TVs came with "smart" crapware in them.

I just need a HDMI port. Please. Let there be options for us that's not only a friggin' projector.
Well, I would be interested. Also, I don't like HDMI, and I don't need such a big TV set. For TV and VCR and some stuff like that, if it uses computer system (many kind of appliances should not need any kind of computer code), having the rights provided by GPL3, and also wired IMIDI (and perhaps also IMIDI-over-IR, with a switch to disable IR entirely). And, the software should be simpler and not so slow, not so much fancy animation or otherwise bad UI (e.g. requiring you to push the arrows to select an option, even if just one button (such as a number) should do) either!

Civil disobedience, along with civil servants that stopped enforcing an unjust law is the reason that my grandmother was able to escape from Germany in 1938. Saving people by stopping the enforcement of an unjust law is more important than trying to defend the abstract concept of the rule of law.
To me this seems like yet another collectivist (where it is ok to sacrifice innocents for the "greater good" - depending on your ruler's definition of greater good) vs individualist (where the rights and freedom of a single person is more important than defending an abstract concept) argument.
Well, those planning military defense strategy might have more information to go on than Russian PR releases...

Can't wait for the followup article written by Ella in 15 years: "Today I told my parents they were going to have to get used to living in a cardboard box because they didn't save for retirement. They asked me to help pay for a nice assisted-living facility, but I explained to them how important it was not to make financial decisions that could complicate your life for a long time based on emotions."
So as I read this, this is a device you have to carry next to your phone for your secure communications. Sounds interesting and for the security minded, it seems it could have some real added value. But for the average consumer it adds a layer of inconvenience that you don't want when contacting your grandmother. Are high powered individuals with strict security requirements the target market for this device?

The problem is Sonos is making it easier for people to perform acts that are bad for the environment.

That people have a choice doesn't exonerate Sonos. They are making it a lot easier for people to make the wrong choice.
