You haven't looked at the numbers. There's so much option trading that it affects the entire market a lot:

Pair that with poor price discovery: few actively managed funds; shit-ton of indexation (both explicit and closet). We may, and I repeat - may, see some interesting action here. Legends like Michale Burry or David Einhorn often complain about price discovery. Which is even more strange given the fact that the number of publicly traded companies in the US was cut down in half since 1996.

I think you should take whatever reasonable precautions help you feel better, but just to put your mind at ease a little: one of the few bright spots with this virus is that it doesn’t seem especially dangerous to kids. To my knowledge there have been zero deaths of any kids under the age of 10. I have a 4 year old and I’m much more concerned about her parents and grandparents than her.
> 2. If the US had though Assange had assisted in stealing state secrets, it would have: (a) Made that accusation earlier than 13 years after the fact

What? The original exfiltration of data happened in 2010: "In early 2010, she leaked classified information to WikiLeaks and confided this to Adrian Lamo, an online acquaintance."

So I have no idea where you're coming up with "13 years after the fact".

And are you also trying to claim that the US government has NOT, until now, claiming that Assange had assisted? In fact, the number is closer to 2 years, if that: "Julian Assange was allegedly investigated by the Eastern District of Virginia grand jury for computer-related crimes committed in the U.S. in 2012. His request for asylum was granted and he remained a resident in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London since 2012. In 2019, an indictment from 2017 was made public".

> But journalism is important enough even to property-ownership-sanctifying democracies that journalists get a free pass on "borderline theft".

Journalism ethics preclude "encouraging the committing of further crimes" (exfiltrating additional data, using third party credentials to "cover tracks", possibly implicating innocent parties), nor actively committing crimes (actively assisting in gaining additional access to classified systems), in any way shape or form.

What you refer to is an acknowledgement that a journalist is not guilty of a crime _merely_ because someone passed them stolen information.

Well now that's interesting. A lot of medical/health/nutrition information these days seems to revolve around inflammation. Much of it is supposedly backed by studies (that I don't really have the time or understanding to dive into), but there's just so many things that supposedly cause it and are supposedly caused by it that I get the feeling that we don't really have any idea at all what it is and what it does. It's like it's some magic spell that is caused by whatever thing you're ideologically against, and causes basically everything you don't like.
A lot of these arguments also tend to elide the fact that even under the most "extreme" tax structures in place or being proposed in first-world democracies across the globe, wealthy people are still wealthy even with those taxes. In practice, no one serious is actually talking about forcing Bill Gates to give up all his money so it can be apportioned equally to every American citizen. If Gates had to pay an annual wealth tax of 2%, started with $90B (the most recent estimate of his net worth I can find), and made $2B a year (which is less than the most recent estimate of his annual wealth increase I can find), then after 20 years he would have... $93B.

I'm aware libertarians believe it's the principle of the thing, dammit, but I'm truly weary of arguments which boil down to "Elizabeth Warren's wealth tax is philosophically indistinguishable from a call for nationalizing all industry."
Did that picture just spoiled the movie?

I have a question: at a previous startup we emailed and called small and micro businesses in NY-SF-LA to sell an SMS marketing service. Kinda like messagebird but not for developers. Basically a web app to be able to send a list of numbers an sms with one tap, in an automated fashion.

Out of 4000emails/calls, which were not pushy at all and focused on understanding their needs, no one ended up paying ($3.6k/y).

What do you do differently?
There are a few examples of government agencies which can make many parallel bets, on the understanding that most will fail but a few may pay off big. But, by "a few examples", I actually just mean DARPA. I'm sure there are others, not many though.

Politics does not work well with "most of these projects failed". It's too easy of a target. Anything that failed, is an easy target for a congressman to take aim at as being "wasted", because in some sense that particular investment was wasted, in the same sense that every insurance payment is wasted except for the one right before you need insurance.

But, the logic behind "many long-shot bets in parallel" is inherently more difficult to explain in the political arena, which is why I think VC may actually be better at some of these kinds of things.
In that case, isn't that basically style="color: var(--gray-500);" with extra steps? I love to see people experiment for the sake of experimentation, but I'd be hesitant to adopt Tailwind as an engineer unless I understood why they weren't just CSS variables.
I'm suprised this attack is even possible. Disabling of the viewstate MAC validation is disallowed, since a while [1]. However, MAC validation is apparently circumvented because the ViewStateUserKey is known.

I see those as BIG pieces of information! The number of people that I "might know" because we've exchanged email with the same person is horrifying in this context. There's a dystopic story to be written (which often means it already has been) about law enforcement using this second-order conntection as Reasonable Suspicion, a "why did we find your business card in this bad guy's wallet?" connection.
WE DON'T NEED THEM?!?!?!

OK, Candide, you may be living in the best of all possible worlds, but I would rather be in one where health care was guaranteed. And yes, while most are "insured", that insurance is often unreliable. This is a solvable, society-wide project, to use your phrase. This country is incapable of pulling it off. (And some of those people resorting to gofundme have insurance, but it is inadequate.)

Look at the superbug problem. We are heading to a time in which antibiotics just no longer work, and what are now minor infections will be fatal. Where is the impetus to solve this society-wide (even world-wide) project? It is not in the financial interest of pharma companies to solve the problem, so we don't. You would think that society would be interested in solving this problem by structuring incentives appropriately. It doesn't happen.

What about climate change? Miami is starting to drown. Other coastal cities are not far behind. The Paris climate agreement is pretty weak, and this country couldn't even stomach that.

Get your head out of the sand.
So you start by saying automatic systems won't see their trades and finish by saying automatic trading systems are in fact seeing their trades and playing against them?
Many times that are implemented so that IT isn't monitored, and the staff who is monitored can have selective enforcement. This allows for people to be fired for abusing their access when in reality they are being fire for some other action that isn't nearly as PR friendly to state.

I wonder if encryption could be tied to the Second Amendment as well. I'd be interested in the legal theory discussing that.

Many of the arguments I've seen here defending encryption are basically the same as those defending guns.
What stats are you looking at?

Real wages have been stagnant for the vast majority of workers in the US.

And the "pulled people out of poverty" thing is such a BS stat. Converting subsistence farmers into sweat shop workers so that they they have $1.50/day instead of $0/day isn't a real metric of pulling people out of poverty. It's more a metric of how tied into the global system they are.

Just stocked up on more food to last a month. Additional items that might be hard to find if mass buyouts ensue at stores like toiler paper, kitchen towels, cleaning supplies, anti-bacterial wipes.

I always make sure I have at least 3/4ths of a tank of gas in my car.

Stuff like a decent first-aid kit plus some batteries.

For entertainment, making sure I have enough movies, ebooks, and music downloaded in-case the internet goes down but electricity is up.

I'm only envisioning that the local government might declare a state of emergency which means working from home, closing schools, possibly public transit, and having the local stores completely sold out of necessities.

No water as I rely on tap water.

I'm working under the assumption that if things get bad under "lock-down," it'll only last three weeks. I live in a small apartment and I'm unable to prepare for any prolonged period of time (3+ months).

If society were to collapsed I am not prepared at all.
The important part is that the woman would have had consensual sex, then walked away with the condom to use it as evidence for something that didn't happen. This makes it sound like it was planned from the beginning.

There aren't shortages until there are. All seems normal until the tipping point. Don't go out and buy up 2 months of supplies in one swoop, unless you want to raise eyebrows and lead to the perception of shelves emptying and then causing it to come true. Buy a weeks worth of extra supplies every other day for a week or two.
That's one heck of a dark pattern.
You're talking about the product of standards committees there, not startups. Standards committees are sort of "We're doing this so no one company owns/controls this basic tech, so we can all build new and interoperable products with the basic tech and make money!"
Let's say that you could somehow increase your wealth by 1% each day.

If you have $100, tomorrow you will have $101. Then $102.01. And so on and so forth. At the end of the year, you'll have $3778.34

Now let's say that if you give $50 to someone else, you can both increase your wealth by 1.1% each day. At the end, both of you will have $2711.08. Individually less, but collectively more.

That's the issue: individually less.

While you may get some benefit from the collective betterment of society, it still requires sacrificing some portion of your potential maximum wealth.

It might have something to do with how you've implemented your VPN on the server-side. I had to play with iptables to get my devices to talk with one another seamlessly.

It's worse than that. Some words did not exist in the target language (the computers are relatively new compared to the age of the language) so they had to be created. Nothing is more annoying than to search for words which make no sense.
Have you actually played Monopoly until the end? The winner is not usually the person that makes the most deals. It's the person who makes the best deals for the dice rolls. If you buy blue, green, and yellow blocks through deals, you're almost always guaranteed to win regardless of how many deals you've made outside of those. The remaining players can continue to make deals and, as long as you don't accept them, they can never win.
"Go figure" seems such an odd phrasing for someone writing an objective investigation on such a serious matter.

I think there's a cake and eat it too. That the rape campaign was an organized smear campaign. That the combined resources of Sweden and the US (and possibly the UK) too's best ability at a smear campaign at someone was "may not have used a condom when he implied he would during a sexual encounter". That's a pretty sad indictment of those intelligence communities (regardless of the merits either way).
Please don't speculate, simply to get to the point of the hearing Assange is having now The US needed to provide:

>a prosecutor's affidavit describing the facts of the case, including dates, names, docket numbers and citations, and preferably executed before a judge or magistrate (particularly if extradition is sought from a civil law country)

>copies of the statutes the fugitive is said to have violated, the statutes governing the penalties that may be imposed upon conviction, and the applicable statute of limitations

…

>… certified copies of the arrest warrant (preferably signed by the court or a magistrate) and of the indictment or complaint

>… evidence of the identity of the individual sought (fingerprints/photographs) and of the evidence upon which the charges are based and of the fugitive's guilt in the form of witness affidavits (preferably avoiding the use grand jury transcripts and, particularly in the case of extradition from a common law country, the use of hearsay)

> there’s a significant impact through environment

Yes environment is a better term (it includes diet, medically speaking). Modern life isn't something we're well suited for from an evolutionary standpoint.

> We rarely talk socially about symptoms like brain fog, memory lapses, mild pain, anxiousness, speediness, etc as anything related to diet or environmental exposure. Previous generations seem to have mental and emotional wellbeing the same attention as they gave to the supernatural, and we seem to have to continually shake off mindsets like “if I can’t measure it it doesn’t exist”

So true, and it's still a thing to a lesser degree in younger generations. Fortunately we increasingly can measure it.

You mean, why that much, or why not all of it? I was tempted to sell all of it, but decided to wait a while.

I sold because I think the risk of further, large declines is greater than the likelihood of a continuing increase.

(In 2008, as that crisis was developing, I also sold everything, and bought back once things returned to a new normal.)
Everybody gains from the wealth created by something like a city park, whether they contribute or not. So there's a game theoretic problem that prevents reaching the wealth maxima without public collaboration. For example you might end up with a strip mall that produces more wealth for a few people but less overall wealth for the whole community then the park because surrounding land values don't benefit as much.
Handling user input is tricky, and so is (de) serialization (I seem to recall most big frameworks from ruby, via php and python through Java - all doing some form of unsafe marshaling from both xml and json).

For encrypted and signed data on the client, you get to add "crypto is hard" on top.

You get things like clear signed data - that makes it easier to de-couple verifying signatures from marshaling contained data - perhaps without checking the signature...

You get encrypted data that isn't using a proper authenticated encryption construct - and again open the door for manipulated data.

Even with proper encryption, you get key revocation wrong (left out), and there's maybe no expiry on chiper texts either - so you happily accept data encrypted and signed by a compromised or expired key.

And there's key management, like in this case, re-using a key that should be sigle client/single session.

Oh,and re-play attacks due to missing serial numbers/nonce on transactions/messages...

But yeah, sure. Like another comment mentions - in theory encrypted data managed by the client is sound.. Unfortunately in practice theory isn't always right.
A double blind study is currently done in China, results should be there in a couple weeks.
> We're rebuilding a large internal admin tool with all in house css and components,

Why would you have shared in-house css and components? Just write vanilla css right?

Tailwind is that shared in-house css and components for people/team that don't have shared in-house css and components. If you can afford to build one, sure use that!

This is made for prototyping too, this is to get to the MVP quicker. Again, if you have a shared in-house css and components library that does the same, sure use that instead, it makes much more sense!

> Those were fine when I was a jr developer - not anymore

That's a scary sentence. Why do you believe it matter whether you are junior or not to use that library? A library is made to avoid doing twice the works. If you already did that work, you don't need that library, that's for sure, but it's totally unrelated to your level as a developer.
Chrome bypassed a lot of security policies by installing itself in the user profile instead of the normal installation in the Program Files folder, because otherwise it would have never been allowed in many corporate environments.

Microsoft can manipulate Windows to make Chrome look bad, but while this could have been useful fifteen years ago against other less popular software, now Windows has serious competition in the form of smartphones and tablets.

Microsoft can't do anything about Android. And people are using Android instead of Windows to browse the Web more and more every day.

For plain old `text-gray-500`, they're pretty similar. One advantage that Tailwind has is screen sizes - you might write `flex items-center justify-between mobile:flex-col` for a row that turns into a column on smaller screens where the UI becomes awkward, for example.

How did the Sperm Donor know it was his child?

Find that and that's how Facebook knows.

To look at a friend suggestion and know it's your child means you have been in contact with someone past the donation stage.

Nothing about how Facebook offers suggestions are secret to my knowledge.

All that's happening is people are not aware how easy it is to find information from networks
> Billions of people used PYMK and are generally happy with it and Facebook in general.

You might be right, but that isn't necessarily so. I'm on Facebook, I hate many of it's features, the product design decisions and I think they are hostile and predatory. Wherever a knob was made available I changed it from the default to the more private setting. But I'm still on Facebook because I have no other option for effective communication with my globally distributed family and with the local tech community.

In short, I hate PYMK and many many other things, and generally I'm not happy at all with Facebook, but you counted me along the "Billions of people" because I'm (almost) daily active on the platform.

I believe you have no idea what portion of the users is happy with the platform, what portion is unaware of the privacy implication and what portion is unhappy about the platform's privacy but, as accurately put by the Zuck himself, pay the necessary tax.
