I'm not doing it right now, but the simple answers:

> How do you deal with spam?

You configure filters on your server so that they are flagged

> How do you ensure your emails don’t get junk mailed?

1. Ensure your server is running in a non-blacklisted IP block.

2. Just configure DKIM and SPF, other email servers should accept your emails without problem
Are you talking about the number of identified cases per 1 million or the number of deaths per 1 million?
Looking at the death tolls, you are only lower than San Marino, Belgium, Peru, Andorra and Spain.
I don't think so. Wasn't it common knowledge that the Government had access to emails via ISPs and shredder well before Snowden's revelations? What was revealing, I guess was some of the technical details of how it was being done.
Like all genders, I would ask them what is “correct.”

If you’re asking about _sex_, however...

in the case of intersex conditions, they arise from a disorder of sexual development which by definition arises by diverging from the typical developmental pathway of one sex or the other. Much the same as someone with a much later and artificial divergence (e.g. hysterectomy), this sex is still their sex despite their intersex condition.

Being born “without genitalia” is still going to be one of these conditions, or the result of some other unspecified trauma or non-sexual-development disorder. They would still be either one sex or the other.

Mosaicism is an interesting case. It would depend on which cells were activating sexual development.
Manning was declared guilty in advance by the US president prior to her trial, and subsequently was tortured so badly prior to trial she tried to kill herself twice whilst imprisoned.

Thanks for the great explanation of the evolution of telecom technologies.

However, I found the business case lacks substance. The author claims that an offline retail giant will have a higher chance of success when they try to go online because they own a telecom arm. There is no reasoning or justification provided.
I think there's an comic book version of this for sale from the same people.

The reason people say "propaganda" is that your commentary uses a bunch of words but don't make an argument but sort of feel like they do, and because they reveal intellectually dishonesty when the surface is scratched.

Imperialism, Communism, Fascism are sexual evil? Maybe. Spirituality is not? OK
What about the rest of religion -- the Crusades, ISIL, the subjugation of women, the persecution of homosexuals, the intolerance of atheist, agnostics, deists, and spiritual people who believe in a slightly different version of spirituality, the institutional rape of children?

It's not so simple as "spirituality good, secularity bad"
It’s a lovely guide. Saves a lot of time vs reading the RFCs when you just want to debug a session state flow/log/packet capture.

The one thing I wish it had was better tracing of branch points like session resumption. It would make walking session state logs simpler.

I ran into this while trying to figure out if the open source Kubernetes nginx ingress supported session resumption on the upstream side (it doesn’t; a deficiency in the lua balancer). While the diversion into nginx source and other sundries was nice, I could have saved that time :)
It's easy to promise controversial things that require Congressional action and cannot pass Congress. The President -no matter who they are or what Congressional action they promised- can't even push their allies in Congress to do something that can't work because of the filibuster or lack of sufficient majorities. Every candidate, and every President, promises things that they know Congress won't likely deliver -- cheap talk. But there are things they can do and so promises they can keep, so long as either they are sufficiently popular or do not require Congressional action.
I'm curious - is this star likely to be "eaten" in the near future, and when something like that happens, could it potentially create a dangerous gamma ray burst or something?

I think I've read something about how the Milky Way's central black hole is unusually quiet, and speculation whether that was a prerequisite for life to develop.
I've seen him refered to as a leaker before, I honestly didn't think much of it.

I don't think that term is automatically negative.
I'd be interested to know the rationale for the downvote.
Even in the title, Reuters editorializes blatantly by labeling Snowden "leaker." And the downvotes here are already clearly politically motivated.
I don't know that I would advise Snowden to ever come to the US. Pardon or no pardon. And I mean that in a very caring way. The people after him are dangerous, and they don't care about laws, or rights. Think Erik Prince, but actually smart, methodical, and quiet. Oh, and there are thousands of them.

For Mr Snowden, this is not a game.
Only works if you've recently fetched origin, otherwise it'll be a challenge sorting out what the previous HEAD was.
Some people have iron self discipline--they simply make a decision, or will themselves to something, and if it lies within their power in any way, it gets done, end of story. I sort of did myself in my mid 20s for a few years, but I can't really explain it. I'd sort of like to see the psychology of that. Even having experienced it, I still can't entirely explain it. (I used to meditate for 2 hours a day in that time period, but ...cause or effect? I don't know.)

Why didn’t they kill her?

If you know enough about the CIA to be absolutely certain they will murder Snowden, then surely you know what line he crossed that Chelsea Manning didn’t?

You might also want to point out that the torture was solitary confinement for all but 1 hour per day, which I’m no fan of, but just to be clear it wasn’t torture in the water boarding or toenail removal sense.
> then shows Officer Saul Zepeda ask Tukuafu for his ID, saying they have to identify everyone they come into contact with.

No, that's not a reason. I'll work through this scenario based on my experience and what I've read on California law.

My understanding in California is that ID must be provided to police only when:

1) operating a motor vehicle where a license is required

2) after being charged with a violation or crime (including operating a bicycle while during a violation)

What the police are doing when they ask for an ID for no substantive reason is detaining you without actually arresting you. And you can decline firmly to do that: "Am I under arrest? No. Then I'm free to go. Are you an attorney? I don't have to answer that. Good-bye."

You are entitled to close the door in their face when they have no legal reason to search (typically a search warrant) or detain you.

In this case, I suppose the police could ask for an ID because of the noise complaint.

With a good enough attorney, the hotel guests will win. The fact the police escalated this into multiple assaults on the hotel guests makes this a slam dunk. And an embarrassment for San Jose.

What the police should have done is to ask the hotel manager to open the door and give consent for a search.

Note that in California you do not need to show an ID when jogging or riding a bicycle if you follow all traffic laws.

There was a fairly recent case that affirmed the jogging case (The police arrested a lawyer who was jogging-while-black without an ID, and he sued them and won.)
Trump would pardon Charles Manson if he thought it'd get him reelected.
Snowden's method of whistleblowing was leaking documents to the press. He is both.
Judging by Chelsea Manning's treatment post-pardon, Snowden would be rather foolish to act upon it and return to the United States anyway. But it might be a good opportunity to get a valid visa and travel to another country that lacks US extradition agreements.
Building a command line tool to help with Google searches
He repeatedly floats the idea of having journalists shot, pardons people for intimidating witnesses on his behalf, goes on public television to invite foreign interference in American elections so long as he's the beneficiary, he deploys troops on American soil against the wishes of state governments, sets new standards for noncompliance with judicial investigations, and spams illegal executive orders like a pentester searching for open ports.

Even if one were a fan of his policies, I cannot comprehend the confusion of principles that would lead them to put "checking executive power" anywhere on his priority list. Not as it relates to privacy, and not in general.
If game consoles are any indication, even if the security gets better over time it will never be "hack proof"
I find it really fascinating to think that when 60 minutes pass on star S62, on Earth 100 minutes would have passed in the same duration. This is Sci-Fi territory in my mind. I am having all sorts of difficulty imagining some implications of this.

Does this roughly mean, things are "sped up" in S62 from our point of view, if we could observe some activity on that star?
If international students drop a lot, you will start seeing massive disruption in US higher education.

This has partly happened due to covid and will fully manifest once tensions with China escalate.
Trump really hasn't taken the lead in much in the way of legislative action, almost ever.

I don't think he understands or has the patience for the process.

Anything beyond what he can try to decree himself, he seems to lose interest / struggle with. Even tripping up his own party members in congress while they try to understand what he wants. He has threatened to veto things he pushed for... then signed them shortly after.

I think he might simply be incapable of anything requiring too many new steps for him.
A better ban would be on platforms that force you through a single organizations servers. That would solve lots of problems the internet has.
Not a question of inherent tendency but cause of. Those who have elected to adapt to their convictions through surgery, hormones, etc. still have very high suicide rates. The studies (I don’t have them handy) undermine the notion that the increased risk and incidence of suicide of “pre-transition” individuals with gender dysphoria are suicidal because they’re “forced” to live in a way that seems to then to be at odds with how they feel. But we find that “post-transition” we still see high rates. Some claim that this is because of the environment, but I believe that was also addressed and found unconvincing.

On the other hand, I have heard therapy for gender dysphoria (GD), such as that which addresses GD in children, can be highly effective in resolving whatever issues that are causing the confusion in the first place.

More electrolytes would help with this, specifically salt. And if you drink plain water, it depletes your electrolytes pretty quickly through urination.

But YMMV, as always.

Was the Pentagon Papers a leak or whistleblowing? Seems like we have a precedent for this.
That's the AP's wholly unfounded interpretation of what Trump said. Later on the article quotes him as saying

>"They want $3.5 billion for something that will turn out to be fraudulent. That’s election money, basically," Trump said during Thursday’s call-in interview.

As I wrote elsewhere, the difficulty with a large-scale increase in mail ballots does not lie with the USPS, but with states and counties without experience with mail ballots, or only with mail absentee votes, that needs to set up the infrastructure to mail them only to eligible voters and receive and process them in November. That's tough to do by early October (giving voters 30 days before Election Day).
Post-transition transgender people have lower suicide rates and better mental health overall than those that are pre-transition[0].

This is very true

what they fear most is

Instagram and Whatsapp getting split up from Facebook

And then it becoming a contest of

FB vs Instagram Vs Whatsapp

If they integrate them in, then they get two good side effects (the real intended effectS) in addition to 'easier for users'

A) Very hard to split it up, as it 'breaks the experience for the users

B) After the split the three companies are FORCED TO WORK TOGETHER

it becomes three companies sharing three shared products

*

Another fact that has to be considered is

A lot of Instagram's growth was done leveraging what was learnt at Facebook and using Facebook users

Now you get the danger that

The three companies (if split - FB, Instagram, Whatsapp) could feed and grow competitors to each other

By having them so interconnected, it also prevents one company to 'build in' a possible competitor to another and grow it quickly

That’s the thing: it doesn’t need to be “absolutely certain” to be sufficient risk to effectively bar him from ever re-entering (or even venturing too far out of the current protection detail
that keeps him alive).

Even “pretty likely to be assassinated upon entry” would be enough to keep most reasonable or prudent people away forever.

Solitary confinement for extended periods of time causes permanent, physical damage to the human brain and psyche. If you have no experience with it or those who have so suffered, I don’t think you have even a remote shred of justification or qualification to speak of it the way that you have.

As I have personally witnessed the intense, permanent damage caused by such things, I entirely refuse to engage with your casual dismissal, which is extraordinarily offensive to me.
Ditto for building "the wall", making various trade deals, bringing peace to the Middle East, ending the opiate crisis, launching the Space Force... He has a real knack for announcing bold new projects with no clear plan for carrying them out, then quietly moving on.

> Megan: My students drew me into another political argument.

> Cueball: Eh; it happens.

> [The two teachers continue talking. A third one is seen reading a book on a sofa.]

> Megan: The world is so complicated - the more I learn, the less clear anything gets. There are too many ideas and arguments to pick and choose from. How can I trust myself to know the truth about anything? And if everything I know is so shaky, what on Earth am I doing teaching?

> Cueball: I guess you just do your best. No one can impart perfect universal truths to their students.

> A physicist and a mathematician are flying cross-country together. Each is keeping a diary of the trip. They fly over a white horse in Iowa. The physicist writes, 'There is a white horse in Iowa.' The mathematician writes, 'There exists, somewhere in the Midwest, a horse, white on top.

Reminds me of a quote from a favorite textbook [1] of mine:

> In mathematics, an argument must be airtight; that is, convincing in an absolute sense. In everyday life ... the standard of proof is lower ... evidence plays no role in a mathematical proof. A mathematician demands proof beyond _any_ doubt.

It's interesting how in the sciences, we worship at the altar of the almighty Evidence. However, in math, not even evidence is good enough.

Isn’t that how politicians are supposed to think? Isn’t the point of electing leaders to combine their self interest with the will of voters?

Wow, great article. This completely explains why travel (not the tourist kind, the serious kind) tends to make one more tolerant: you encounter people who clearly have very different values and beliefs, but who are nevertheless amazing human beings. It’s a powerful force for developing a more complete theory of mind.
> Clearly Snowden has been useful to them, at least from a propaganda angle, and perhaps intelligence-wise as well. By now they've extracted all the value they were ever going to extract from him

Symbols can stay valuable for a long time. A political refugee from the United States has all kinds of symbolic value, not least because we aren't willing to admit that there could be such a thing.
It's not that it's hard or complex, it's that I really don't care about it and am not at all interested in learning. It's a weak attitude, I know, but I just can't help it.

So like most other developers, I go about my day totally not understanding git at all and when something weird happens, I talk to that co-worker know understands get (there's always at least one such psychopath on each dev team in existence) and ask him to fix it. He invariably talks about how easy and elegant git is and then finally gets around to giving me a couple commands with non-sensical names and options that fix the problem.

I don't care, and I'm okay not caring. Not learning git might even give me extra time to learn about these magical computer algorithms I've heard so much about.
I remember as a child an elderly relative of mine talked about how there were no restaurants in his day, and I just assumed that restaurants hadn't reached his part of the world until recently. It turns out some of the world's oldest restaurants are from his part of the world, and that he simply grew up during a very unstable time. Your experience may be similar to his.
You seemed pretty sure. But ok if he’s “pretty likely to murdered ”, then you must have some numbers to back that up? How many leakers have been murdered, and how many haven’t?

What was the probability that Chelsea Manning was going to be murdered? And how was it calculated?

edit in response to your edit which included this:

>As I have personally witnessed the intense, permanent damage caused by such things, I entirely refuse to engage with your casual dismissal, which is extraordinarily offensive to me.

So you're just going to toss out unsubstantiated claims and then retreat under the pretense of being extraordinary offended?

Torture has a generally accepted meaning and most people (and our legal system) don’t think that a single occupancy prison cell with an hour of human contact per day fits that meaning. The studies supporting psychological damage are generally talking about months of near total isolation, which is not what Chelsea Manning experienced.
It's "mobile" as in cars and robots. It's not mobile as in cell phones.
Ah, well perhaps it would have been more accurate to say that his dictatorial tendencies are more a threat to democracy than they are a threat to liberalism. He's interested in being and staying President, not at all principled about what he needs to do to make it happen, but seemingly not so interested in expanding the surveillance state, suppressing speech, that sort of thing.

As one of the "taxed but not represented" people in the US, I guess I might value voting rights a little less than I should.
