As a former member, I still choose to live here over anywhere else (my employer has given us the option - and I can't imagine a place I'd rather live) I'll agree that the church's focus on hard work, clean living, family atmosphere, abstinence from drugs and alcohol provide quite a net-positive for industrious people. I feel completely energized by the tech scene here, but I do get concerned that if we keep trying to rush toward being SF, we'll end up with million dollar 3 bedroom homes and folks living on the streets.
How did they figure out who would be their customers?

To some extent they didn’t. They didn’t think anyone would want the 4004, 8008, 8080 for computers. They started out marketing them for use in calculators. The personal computer market didn’t exist yet. PCs were originally built by hackers, many of whom belonged to the homebrew computer club. The first one to go into production was the MITS Altair 8800, which used an Intel 8080, but when you bought it you got a bunch of chips you had to solder onto the board yourself, so only hackers had any interest in it.

If you’re really interested in this stuff, I highly recommend the book Hackers: Heroes of the Computer Revolution by Steven Levy [1]. The book traces the history of hackers from its beginnings at the tech model railroad club at MIT through the homebrew computer club at Stanford, and on into the beginnings of the computer game industry. It’s a fantastic chronicle of some very interesting and entertaining characters, with some real pranksters in the bunch. A very fun read!

gsuite docs are another point.

Applications on one's phone that they are used to, not to mentioned all of the google service integrations that individually aren't too hard, but in aggregate much harder to work around.

I do think o365 is leaps and bounds better than gdocs, and outlook, even on android, is better than google's mail.

The last time I used Firefox for a few days, it wasn't bad, only a couple plugins I use regularly were missing, and that was difficult and evenually moved back to chrome.

I actually let myself fall into using my google or twitter logins across other sites... which was really bad when I was false-flagged on twitter, and after 5 days and 2 appeals, just deleted the "offending" post. I still say the person in question was a "fucking moron," and that it wasn't a call to action in any way shape or form.

And while I've started migrating some stuff away, the daily use isn't always easy.
> Most implementations of transactional memory are based on software. The POWER9 processor-based systems provide a hardware-based implementation of transactional memory that is more efficient than the software implementations and requires no interaction with the processor core, therefore enabling the system to operate at maximum performance.

Wow. You'd need a compiler that supports this feature (I think I read that GCC 4.7 has experimental support). This would support their traditional customer base - banks and other firms that want atomic operations at speed. There's probably some limitations around transactions across nodes, since you'd be leaving the chassis.

I think "redo" looks like a very simple, good solution - here is the documentation: https://redo.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

Of course it is only a tool and it does not convert an overcomplicated bloated system into a three-liner. But unnécessary complexity in build systems sucks big time, and interferes with decent testing, so I think this is a real gem.

The same newspaper publishers are also on social media sites as well, but link directly to their own articles and 'select' some social media accounts as sources to include in their articles that fits their narative and their own bias.

Reading multiple articles and sources from other publications will give you some good skeptisim in which either side might have missed or omitted some information in their own reporting.

Women in Switzerland did not have equal voting rights until 1990, when the last (small) canton finally made them equal. But it was only in 1971 when they first gained the right to vote at all.

A Canadian friend living in Switzerland told me that even though there aren't any legal limitations on women any more, the culture in still much more tilted towards "a woman's place is it home raising the kids" than in Canada or the US.

AKK's resignation was not due to her conservative views, but rather because CDU cooperated with AfD in Thungria to keep a left candidate from being elected, which is taboo within CDU. She was seen as being unable to maintain party discipline. The current front-runner appears to be Markus Söder, from CDU's even-more-conservative Bavarian sister party.

It doesn't mean anyone will take any notice (or that it's feasible to get data in and out). Long ago, supporting crystallography, I pointed out that each image would roughly fit in the cache, and the whole dataset in memory. (On Alphas with ~10MB and 1GiB, I think -- though the storage array was only ~250GB.) The developer of the processing program still didn't see fit to replace the disk-based sort written for a PDP11, which was where the bottleneck was.

I'll give you just one reason why the Swiss system is currently the best on Earth. Everywhere I go people always talk about political systems as 'they have decided x, y or z'. In Switzerland people will say 'we have decided' even when they disagree with the outcome of the vote. That's a major difference and as a result the Swiss populace is typically very well educated on the matters on which they vote. This is hard to port to other countries for many reasons but it definitely is a very big benefit.
Firstly, a councillor is supported by a party. If you don't have the support of your party anymore, you are gone. Secondly, a federal councillar is "above" the party. You are representing first the federal council and not the party towards the public (i.e. a federal councillor represents the opinion of the federal council and not that one of his party).

Two things:

1. The media would ignore him if he did. He wouldn't get to take part in any of the debates, and most people would have no idea he was even running.

2. It might not even be possible for him to get on the ballot in most states as a third-party candidate. Election laws make it nearly impossible for third parties to get on the ballot in many states. In the last 20 years, the Green Party has never managed to get on the ballot in more than 45 states. In 2004, they only managed to get on the ballot in half the states. The Democratic party fights tooth and nail to keep them off the ballot (just like the Republican party fights to keep the Libertarians off the ballot). Because almost all the local and state election officials and judges are Democrats and Republicans, the deck is stacked against third parties.

Finally, Sanders would be viewed as a spoiler, robbing votes from the Democratic party. Most people would feel like they would be throwing their votes away.

> it seems like it could be a real game changer in general for IoT.

Could you explain why Windows could make things better? As I get more IOT things I have gone more and more basic and had great success. I’m not suggesting that flashing ESP32 chips is the way forward for everyone, but it certainly has its merits.

If the rough edges could be removed (imperfect flash software, the need for multiple guides, understanding pin layouts and my crap wiring) the basic method is great - name the chip, give an SSID and password, then tell it what sensors it has - flash. It’s a genuine 10 minutes before it’s in Home Assistant.

I wonder how many people only know each other through Twitter and through no other social network. I also wonder how many of them never bothered to ask for their other contact information.

If Twitter were to vanish suddenly would these people be bothered by it for more than a month? I'm thinking there has to be at least a handful of such people.

Also, anecdotally, I heard of a parent taking away their son's game console since they were worried he was playing it all day. His response was to stare at the wall for the same amount of time instead.

I wonder what implications there would be around forcibly preventing people from using social networks if they're already wired to be used to social media.

> The second answer is that if you dress for aesthetic instead of functional reasons, one of the very first concerns is silhouette.

See, I think you've missed what everyone in this thread is trying to get at. The defense of cargo pants is based on a pretty simple dialectic:

· Who determines what is fashionable or "aesthetic"?

Mostly, the people who design, sell, and advertise clothes. And also, people who directly profit off of being fashionable.

· What metrics do they use to decide what they're going to call fashionable?

Mostly, whatever will allow them to change styles from year to year and sell as many products as possible and maintain their position at the top of the fashion world.

· Is it in our interests to buy into this system of fashion?

No! In fact this dialectic has shown that fashion is basically bullshit, and that it's not just morally neutral but good to resist! To try to come up with our own fashions based on what appeals to us personally or simply wearing whatever has the most utility.

For the record, I don't necessarily agree with this argument (I lean towards fashion-neutral), but I think this pattern of thinking is extremely common in hacker culture. While I'm cynical about how fashion is created, I don't wear cargo pants either, but that's because I find them much less comfortable than a straight (not slim) cut pair of jeans.

Ah I think I see the disconnect. I was trying to make a nuanced observation that these aren't just riots. Re-reading my original comment, I find my phrasing lacking so mea culpa.

So it would seem re-reading the thread with that context, we actually agree. There is riotous behavior occurring, although not all participants are rioters. Regardless, Feds shouldn't be doing anything other than securing Federal property.

Normal C code, not that I can think of. But it is not difficult to give a real-world example:

> I would love to be able to speak to Galileo to understand how he felt.

James Lovelock is very old, and Galileo Galilei lived a really long time ago. This made me wonder how far away the two actually are in time. Lovelock was born in 1919, and Galileo died in 1642. Thus if someone was born while Galileo was still alive, and lived to the age that Lovelock is now, they would have died in 1743. Once more, and we are at 1844; then again we get to 1945 --- at the beginning of Lovelock's career in science. Surprising to think that it's really only three long lifetimes that separate Lovelock from Galileo!
The problem statement discusses the undesirable trade-offs of tight/skinny jeans, yet the model solution isn't even remotely representative of the framework that it suggestively seeks to improve.

I can't help but see this pocket as a liability; a cost-saving excuse to omit a proper securing mechanism of sorts shrouded by a pitch of being innovative. In a perfectly postured world with 2 operational modes--standing and sitting--this might be good enough, but I'd hardly be willing to risk yet another $600+ cellphone to find out when I'm crouching, squatting, gargoyling, kicking legs up, riding a bike, in a sports car bucket seat, etc.

Furthermore, if it's easy for you to slip your phone in and out of, then it'll also be easy for thieves to do so as well.

He's pointed it out six(!) times now.

Aside from the that it really isn't clear (a small yellow patch on the front of an otherwise military-styled uniform, not to mention the unmarked vehicles), the definition of "police" really matters here. They aren't police as any regular citizen would understand them. They are U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents, whose objectives have nothing to do with the city of Portland or its residents.
>1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insurrection_Act_of_1807

Before invoking the powers under the Act, 10 U.S.C. § 254 requires the President to first publish a proclamation ordering the insurgents to disperse. So if this is your precedent and there is no Presidential proclamation, then you would agree Trump has engaged in illegal acts?

>2. Attempting to burn down the federal courthouse would probably violate federal law, one would think.

There have been multiple "arrests" on video, and in the video the individuals were not attempting to burn anything down, much less a federal courthouse, in fact they weren't even near a federal courthouse and had no materials in their hands to suggest they could burn anything down.

>3. You’re just speculating. There’s no reason to think the arrestees aren’t being mirandized and given access to counsel.

There is video of some of these "arrests" including the prior to the interactions, the initial interactions, the detention, the "arrest" and placement into unmarked vans...in these videos there was no Miranda given. Since when is verifiable video evidence speculation?

But yes, my point is even if a court ruled the Federal Government has this power, there would still be many other Constitutional protections that apply, and based on what we have seen there seems to be those kinds of violations based on verifiable video evidence. I have also yet to see anyone who was arrested be bonded out nor make a public statement through any attorney...where are these arrestees held? Have they been afforded the right to an attorney? Have they appeared before a Judge for bail?
Back of the napkin estimation: a million years is 40,000 Homo generations, you might get a valuable mental mutation maybe every 500 generations, that's only 80 mental mutations between us and the Homo species that made this axe. So these guys were just about as smart as us.

On the other hand, modern human's super-intelligence might have come from a lucky admixture of Neanderthral and Denisovan genes rather than slow mutation. There's evidence from cultural artifacts that even 100,000 years ago humans were less intelligent then us.
The evidence suggests we don't feel anything at all, its more accurate to say we rationalize ourselves with feelings and intentions than it is to say we have feeling and intentions.

I've never actually tried to explain that before, having done so i understand why we are appearing so desperate to find another answer.

> Can we have opinions on our clothes without having to give every random person on the Internet a full justification?

Yes, which is why I'm suspicious of people who make dictates and maxims about fashion.

My point is that those maxims were created by people who have an obvious incentive to sell you more things, and having you supplement pants with carrying bags would benefit them.

We must also take unconscious racism and classism into account when judging the fashion dictates of others: "Big pockets make it look like you work for a living! We must therefore shun big pockets!" is not exactly value-neutral.

Also:

I don't think the rise of the AfD in Germany has much to do with a reduction in ethnic or cultural 'purity'.

The general political consensus position in Germany has shifted considerably to the left over the last 30 or so years. This has alienated some people and the AfD is the recepticle.

Much of the rethoric employed by the AfD could have been found in the CDU just 10 or so years ago, including appeals to German culture as you mentioned. "Leitkultur" was one famous topic of debate. Other classics include "Kinder statt Inder", and "Das boot ist voll".
