Yes, if riots are not covered, they're not covered, but that will generally be obvious to the purchaser of the insurance (specifically by virtue of a clause about riots being excluded being present in the contract, in contravention to your claim above that "the clause [about riots] won't be in any contract to begin with". It will be there as an explicit exclusion.).

If the purchaser of the insurance makes the choice to purchase insurance which obviously and explicitly does not cover riots, they ought not be surprised when riots are not covered and it's not the insurer's fault.
Five typical pitfalls using react hooks and why you should avoid them
For the record, individual atoms were imaged for the first time back in 1955:

http://pubsapp.acs.org/cen/coverstory/83/8348atoms.html?

> On Oct. 11, 1955, Pennsylvania State University physics professor Erwin W. Müller and Kanwar Bahadur, who at the time was a Ph.D. student working with Müller, made history by being the first people to image individual atoms. The scientists were using a relatively simple and inexpensive instrument, and with it they directly observed individual tungsten atoms at the tip of a sharply pointed tungsten specimen.
Lincoln City is pretty sparse until the summer! (I meant my wife's grandmother. Not even close!)
You could definitely do something like this in other languages, probably even in Java/C# using a HashMap or Dictionary, but the difference is that this is “the way” you would do this in Clojure. It’s not, generally speaking, they way you’d do it in the other languages you mentioned.

I think it’s one of the reasons why people always say that learning Clojure makes them better developers even when they’re not using Clojure. The ideas that that take away from idiomatic Clojure and use in other languages.
I used WikidPad (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WikidPad) for a while and quite liked. It looks somewhat similar to zim-wiki. Unfortunately it does not look like it is under active development.

You are correct, in that "something" also starts it. It isn't that a cop just decide to start violence. But that "something" usually doesn't warrant the amount of violence. ESPECIALLY given that the protest is about police brutality.
In the incident we were both referring to, you claimed "the protestors were pushing the fence" So what? That doesn't necessitate macing the entire crowd.
"They deployed umbrellas" (In Seattle!) Again, no response warranted.
"They deployed over the barrier" Wow, such violence from the crowd! No, that doesn't warrant a response either.
"An officer swats a pink umbrella" And DESTROYS it. This is the incident that sparks a ton of mace and flash grenades... And yet you claim the cops didn't react for no reason? Yes they did. If the cop didn't grab the umbrella, and start whacking it with a weapon, then the violence wouldn't have occured.
The girl, on one side of the fence has her umbrella destroyed by the cops, and is started to be beat at with a stick... And a fellow cop sprays her with mace to "get the girl off"? Why not just NOT rip the umbrella from her in the first place?
Show HN: Marcel – A Modern Shell
Marcel is a shell. It is intended to be familiar to anyone who knows bash, but it emphasizes piping objects between commands, instead of strings. E.g., to explore the current directory recursively and find files changed in the past day:

ls -r | select (file: now() - file.mtime < days(1))

Marcel is designed for interactive use. Python would be a fine scripting language if the integration with shell commands were better. So I made marcel's capabilities available as a module, marcel.api. The integration is extremely clean, (IMHO). To do the above example in Python:

from marcel.api import *

for file in ls(recursive=True) | select(lambda file: now() - file.mtime < days(1)):
print(file)

AMA Session with Sergio Lerner
Yeah my apartment neighbor, who is a corporation, broke down crying the other night from all the stress at work and the news. Cried really loudly, could hear through my walls. But at least their ex-wife-divestment lets him see his kids-subsidiaries on the weekends. But he's going to be moving out soon to be closer to his mother, who is a conglomerate and frail, so he can take care of her.

A real tear jerker of a life. But for some reason he never worries about eating healthy -- or eating at all, for that matter. Maybe I should try giving him some body-positive feedback for emotional support.

Bah, you know what, maybe it's my flawed humanism getting in the way, maybe it'll be easier for me to just become a corporation, too.

There is also direct-capture in some fusion designs where the charged by-products are electrically decelerated, producing current. I don't believe this is possible in the standard Tokamak design, but the efficiency gain is a selling point for those designs which do allow it.

On one side we have peer reviewed, published, studies showing it doesn't work and causes harm when used to treat Covid-19, and on the other side we have youtube videos talking about tweets from some bloke calling himself MD but who isn't working as a doctor, talking about a "study" performed in India that wasn't actually a study -- they were not monitoring the impact on the people taking it; they didn't attempt a control group; we have no idea if the people who declined it were high risk or not; etc etc.
FWIW, arguments like this come across as a craven justification that is motivated by pure partisanship. We've all seen the videos. Trying to justify looting only undermines the defense of peaceful protest.

Saying that Tegnell "goes at it alone" is completely misinformed and comparing the situation to eugenics research is just going to show everyone how little you know about this situation. Stop wasting everyones time...

> Yikes, dude. I just don't agree with trying to ruin someones life forever, because they occasionally like to use drugs. That's not political nihilism. I don't really consider seeing a needle in the street a "third world standard of living". I don't enjoy seeing litter, but it's a reality of living in an urban area. There's beer cans, and yes people toss bottles to, so there's shards of glass in the street, and it's not "safe" or harmless.

There's lots of countries where people wouldn't consider needles and feces in the streets to be the "reality of living in an urban area." For example Tokyo or Stockholm (both of which are in strongly anti-drug countries).
The whole banking system would collapse like in 2007-2008 because "everyone stops paying mortgages all at once" is basically what happened then.

Renters stop paying their rent so landlords go broke. Landlords stop paying their mortgages. Mortgage-backed securities go into default. Anyone with lots of exposure to mortgage-backed securities folds. Their counterparties in all sorts of financial arrangements can't collect (insurance, bonds, you name it). Credit markets dry up, and all the Main Street businesses that are rolling over some of their debt find they can't borrow, so they file for bankruptcy. Normally, they'd take out loans to make it through bankruptcy and restructure... but no loans are available, so they liquidate.

EDIT: worth noting that this is less likely now than in '07-'08 because the Federal Reserve has been buying up bonds like crazy (that basically means financial institutions, governments and businesses are often able to get unlimited cheap credit) but if they scaled that back or stopped doing it, things are already so bad there would've been a credit crisis in March or April without a national rent/mortgage freeze. So imagine how much worse it would be with one.
Oh, it happened in Germany in 1983 when the media realized that Hitler's diaries were fake. But that was one media outlet, who had purchased all the rights of the fake diaries, against all others.

Honestly this came to me after I've read your reply, and I think you're onto something:

Is the 50% market share really necessary to claim who's a monopoly?

Maybe it's time to re evaluate the definition of monopoly.
You can get around this by purchasing leveraged funds/etc. Although that should never be considered functionally the same. That said, you could consider real-estate interest+taxes+upkeep similar to the inherent loss/overhead in leveraged funds.

Ultimately it will damage the banks that hold the mortgages.
From Facebook's announcement:

We look at several factors that may indicate editorial control by a government, including:

- Mission statement, mandate, and/or public reporting on how the organization defines and accomplishes its journalistic mission

- Ownership structure such as information on owners, stakeholders, board members, management, government appointees in leadership positions, and disclosure of direct or indirect ownership by entities or individuals holding elected office

- Editorial guidelines such as transparency around sources of content and independence and diversity of sources

- Information about newsroom leadership and staff

- Sources of funding and revenue

- Governance and accountability mechanisms such as correctional policies, procedure for complaints, external assessments and oversight boards
I applaud the effort. Though more sophisticated foreign actors manipulate through nominally independent media outlets, it's at least a start.

>It's not a good signal for who will provide good business value through software engineering

Entirely depends on the org. I’ve done DS+A work professionally. I do think it tests fundamental understanding of programming considering DS+A underlies everything we do. If you’re hiring generalist software engineers (or general knowledge is a requirement) and not specialists in specific stacks it makes complete sense to me. I also think it’s harder to fake/game than almost any other programming related test.

>”smart”
Necessary but not sufficient. You can drive business value without knowing software engineering at all. Driving business value through software engineering requires being a good problem solver

Seeing someone unable to do a slight modification of breadth first search given 30-60m to sketch it out does, in my opinion, give me a general sense of their software engineering ability. I am bluntly saying I think it’s an accurate way to assess skill regardless of all the hacker news complaints of “why can’t I get a $300k/year job without knowing what a trie is”

That one's being attacked as we speak for certain poor controls on testing. This could lead to a compromised dataset and invalidating the whole thing.
One of the authors of the paper is the founder/CEO of Surgisphere so presumably he has permission to see the "data" (assuming it exists) and has convinced his co-authors to take his word for it.
Oh, certainly. The United States (and every other country with a hawkish foreign policy) uses atrocity propaganda to justify their wars to their citizens. The difference between Nayirah, the Gulf of Tonkin, the RMS Lusitania, et. al and the 2003 Invasion of Iraq is that American citizens and international observers knew the pretense was fabricated at the time. These same citizens and international observers protested the fabrication, the ensuring invasion, the total capture of the media by the administration, etc. The only people to whom it was an actual surprise that Iraq did not have WMDs were Bush's low-information voting constituents.

Powershell is the ultimate expression of the Unix pipeline imo.

Passing objects through the pipeline and being able to access this data without awk/sed incantations is a blessing for me.

I think anyone who appreciates shell pipelines and python can grok the advantages of the approach taken by Powershell, in a large way it is directly built upon existing an Unix heritage.

I'm not so good at explaining why, but for anyone curious please have a look at the Monad manifesto by Jeffrey Snover

You may not agree with the implementation, but the ideas being it, I think, are worth considering.

>The Constitution provides a right to peaceful assembly. It does not provide a right to violence and looting.

Looting and violence are already illegal. Catching the peaceful right to assembly, and arresting otherwise law abiding citizens, as collateral damage does not make those people trust the system more, who were already civilly disobeying the curfew order.

Someone will fight the citation on constitutional grounds. Did the ends justify the means? Could the police and national guard handle looting and rioting without curfew? If peaceful protesters are out at night causing cover and distraction for looting and rioting, is the only answer curfew?
Science 2.0
A discussion about modeling:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxAaO2rsdIs
I'm really not suggesting education should be cut! I just think the chart is silly because it pretty much finds the smallest subdivision of the budget that includes all of the police budget but doesn't include things like education. The desired effect of the chart is clearly for people to think "Damn - half my tax dollars are going to the police and nothing to health services" when that isn't close to being true.

Additionally, while Los Angeles in particular could increase its budget for homeless shelters and a few particular resources, I don't see it as the city's job in particular to cover all social problems that can be better handled at a state or national level. Police everywhere are largely funded locally so again it is a bit comparing apples to oranges.
I'm starting to think responding to crime with police is the wrong approach. By the time police are involved, the crime has usually already been committed. It seems like there should be far more focus on preventing crime with social services and economic and health interventions. The police should be our last resort, not our first.
It's a lot of fun. Unlike selling ads for google.
Where do you see systemic racism in current society? Do mind that 'systemic racism' has a specific meaning, it is racism expressed in the practice of social and political institutions. The only obvious example of systemic racism I can think of at the moment is the policy of certain academic institutions which demand higher grade averages from Asian students to be accepted compared to other groups but that is not what most people think of when hearing this term. There are individuals who are racist and some of those may be in a position to spread their racist ideas by way of their position in limited parts of society - e.g. a racist sheriff or prosecutor - but that is not the same as institutional/systemic racism.

I don't think you fully caught the irony of what you just wrote.
> No, you can not digitally alter a photo to remove red eye. You will have to submit a new photo without red eye.

What if the camera does that automatically without you knowing? Technically that still is "digitally alter a photo to remove red eye" (by the way there is no such thing as an unaltered digital photo). What if the camera lets you know it does and offers to turn that off - should you? What if an import script (which fires as you plug your camera/card) on your PC does that without you knowing? What if you know it's there? How does the result of any of these scenarios considered different from just doing that in Photoshop?
Keeping my­self mo­ti­vated to write
I think people can go through a few stages of their shell-foo.

The first involves a lot of single commands and temporary files.

The second uses pipes, but only tacks on commands with no refactoring.

The third would recognize that all the grep and cut should just be awk, that you can redirect the cumulative output of a control statement, that subprocesses and coroutines are your friend. We should all aspire to this.

The fourth stage is rare. Some people start using weird file descriptors to chuck data around pipes, extensive process substitution, etc. This is the Perl of shell and should be avoided. The enlightened return back to terse readable scripts, but with greater wisdom.

Also, I always hear of people hating awk and sed and preferring, say, python. Understanding awk and especially sed will make your python better. There really is a significant niche where the classic tools are a better fit than a full programming language.
Sure, let's give politicians a stick to break businesses arbitrarily, since we don't like objective criterias. Got a problem with some CEO, cry monopoly and break it up.
What's the "Advanced" part in this ? Vue/quasar tables already provide extensive functionality and I am sure there are react and angular alternatives.

I don't think there is a need for a library to work across vue/react/angular at the same time because no single person is going to use those in a single project.

I appreciate the project since I am frequently looking for js grid implementations but what the differentiator here ? Is it performance or styling or flexibility or just variety of frameworks ?
Reminds me of the time facebook made that (intentionally hard to use) database of "ads" to show that no manipulation was going on and then removed some clearly manipulative ads with the reasoning that they had not been marked as political ads and as such where not political but "just" illegal ads and shouldn't be in that database.

Also surly Chinese, Russia and other propaganda actions will tell facebook that they are media outlets/state sponsored and not just lets say some company trying to sell some stuff.

Based on the blog post it seems like they are giving themselves a lot of wiggle-room to include or exclude whomever they like.

If we determine that there are enough protections in place to ensure editorial independence, we will not apply the label. Publishers looking to prove their independence must be able to demonstrate at least:

A statute in the host country that clearly protects the editorial independence of the organization

Established procedures, processes, and protections at the media organization to ensure editorial independence

An assessment by an independent, credible, external organization finding that the statute has in fact been complied with and established procedures have been followed

I'm going to be a little idealistic here, but I would rather see a greater emphasis on media literacy online. Provide the reader with some context and help them make informed decisions. No it won't work on everyone, but it's better than panicking.

Any media source can be illuminating if you know how to read it. RT contains the perspective of the Russian state, as well as a lot of western journalists who are outside the western mainstream for whatever reason. The stories are often embarrassing for western states, but that's fine as long as the the reader knows the intention of the source, and they are aware there is some propaganda mixed in.
Really defunding the police is a natural punishment for their repeated failures and lack of accountability. If more funding doesn't get better results, and the purse strings don't even get responsiveness to their needs then why bother beyond a bare minimium?

Even a temporary measure to bring them to heel and forcing them to recognize who is really in charge could be useful for relations.
Interestingly, someone posted this here. I am the contributor of this repo. This repo generally introduces LSM-tree into PostgreSQL via foreign data wrapper approach. Your question may turn into "what's the pro of LSM-tree over B+tree(PostgreSQL)". One sentence for this, fatser data ingestion. You can check my talk in PGCON2020 few days ago. I think it will upload in Youtube.
The president has literally zero influence or control over what happens in local police departments.
Assuming that you are mapping the results to a Dictionary, sure it would be similar.

My point was more that C#/Java developers (myself included at one point in time) would typically reach for classes to store the results, rather than just a Dictionary<String, String>.

It’s not that other languages can’t to this, it just that this approach doesn’t always jive with their conventions like it does with Clojure.
Quoting a comment from upstream in response to this:

> In what sector is Amazon a monopoly. Retail? Walmart is much larger and Amazon's share of the market is too small to be a monopoly. Ecommerce? Even in ecommerce, Amazon's share is <50%.

So let's summarize: Amazon isn't a monopoly in "shopping" in any sense; there are other companies that run datacenters; since when does Amazon do live streaming? (and even if it does there are a million other apps/websites more people use for that); they don't have a monopoly in audiobooks; and they CERTAINLY don't have a monopoly in ebooks.

Just because they're a big noticeable name doesn't make them a monopoly. I'd downvote you if you could, and my name isn't Jeff.
It kind of sounds like we need a different money system?
