The kid could always be charged on some other state-level technicality. These charges would be state-level and therefore not subject to Presidential pardon.

That said, such a limited abuse would not justify ditching the pardon power. History has shown that not having a pardon power would have been impossible - the civil war would have lasted for decades, there would have been mass charges years after Vietnam, without the option of pardon Nixon may never have resigned, etc. A lot of these aren't corner cases, but they were necessary to still have a country.

IMHO, the by far best solution is to have it in a more limited form so it requires more than one guy.

In MODL [1] graves are used to quote strings since DNS implementations vary in how they handle escaped double quotes. That said, the record editor should have escaped it if you entered it into an input field so I'll take a look at this, thanks for highlighting it.

We're united in our love for DNS and terse text formats and I agree that most people don't care about either. However, that's the point of the NUM Server service [2] – it's a front end to create and manage NUM records.

Early next year we're going to populate the DNS with millions of NUM records for businesses based on their company website. So once the data is in DNS and developers start to consume it and build interesting things with it, we hope that companies will want to claim their record and that's where we can make money – from NUM record hosting, as protocol adoption grows.

Licensing for all NUM libraries is Apache 2.0, there's no charge or limitations on records from our NUM Server service, we just ask that a link is provided where a business can claim their populated record.

Competence. In the next couple of weeks Schools are going to come back in the UK. There will be little to no real routines to limit the virus, and certainly no funding. That's 7 months into the pandemic.

Figuring out a real way of making sure exams were taken would've required competence.

Once you say that you would die if someone else carries on, and that the other person doesn't have to be exactly you but can have for example a few minutes delta, then we get into the discussion of just what it is that makes your belief that they are "similar enough" that you can happily suicide.

> "I'm not important, but I'm unique; nobody is exactly like me."; "I still want to live"

I submit that if you were in the accidental clone scenario, you wouldn't be willing to die as you claim, but would instead feel "I still want to live" very strongly, and your belief that the clone is "exactly like you" would give way to "they just came out of a nano-assembler and they know it, they're only an approximation of me who knows how many things are subtly different inside, I deserve to live more strongly" or on the other side "I just stepped out of a nano-assembler, I'm new and fresh and they've been ageing for decades and they intended to die in that scanner, I deserve to live more strongly", or possibly "I'm willing to share everything I have and compromise, there's no need for any death here".

> [ed: or continuity or linearity of experience, which I think are largely violated already when I fall asleep or lose memories]

I'm not happy with the casual idea that continuity of experience is violated by sleep. If that were true, waking up somewhere "unexpected" would be impossible, instead it's very disorienting and scary and a trope of horror stories. We expect to wake up where we went to sleep, we expect any times of waking up in the night to be in the right places in the sleep timeline, and we expect to feel an amount of refreshed/relaxed/over-tired/too hot/aching/with a numb arm from lying on it/etc. depending on how long we slept for and how well we slept (which is something we are aware of and can report on), and we can experience waking up with answers or decisions to things we were thinking about the night before. Sleep is not 8 hours of non-event.
ACA requires insurers to pay for all healthcare expenses at in network providers for coveted procedures, unlike pre ACA where the insurer could simply stop paying at a certain dollar amount.

And health insurance does recommend different treatment depending on what the insurance’s doctors think. That’s the entity with the knowledge to be able to challenge a doctor, since the patient rarely has sufficient knowledge to do so.

The alternative system of a check and balance is if the government pays for healthcare and a government employed doctor approves or suggests alternative treatment. That’s what the UK does.

Either way, you have to have a second opinion to avoid mistreatment or overcharging by the healthcare provider. This isn’t an issue specific to healthcare, it’s present in any sufficiently complicated field.

I don't think it would be unconstitutional ex-post-facto. Obergefell v. Hodges didn't define sex discrimination in marriage certificates unconstitutional after a certain date. It was always unconstitutional, and was recognized as such in their ruling.

And yes, I would like to see, actually, qualified immunity removed and governments held liable for rights violations. Perhaps not prison time for the clerks - who were simply "following orders", as horrendous a saying as that is - but some liability and remedy for the countless people harmed.

How different a world would it be if as a result of Brown v. Board of Education was that black families were financially compensated for sixty years of segregation and for centuries before that denied the right to an education?

How different a world would it be if as a result of Shelley v. Kraemer, every black person who was told they couldn't buy a home because of a bank was compensated?

How different a world would it be if as a result of Whole Women's Health v. Hellerstedt, women who sought an abortion and were denied or unable due to unconstitutional restrictions on clinics were compensated by the equivalent of child support from the state?

I think that would be a better world. No, I don't think the clerks, the school boards, or health commission members in Texas should go to jail. But I do think that perhaps, just perhaps, we might live in a more just world today if there were long-term consequences for denying someone their rights. And maybe, just maybe, we can then start to ask whether or not "just following orders" is a good way to justify one's individual place in society.

But before we go down the slippery slope of questioning whether evil can be banal - it can - we should ask whether or not its prior victims should be entitled to a remedy too.
> > Not being able to stop people for speeding and even other minor traffic infractions would remove so much power from them that they consider it a non-starter (having cameras doesn't mean they can't stop people for speeding it needs it's own legislation)

> The entire comment chain is about something that has never been done before, using camera based enforcement to replace large classes of traffic stops.

I keep asking how you that happens, and you keep not answering. How does camera based enforcement stop bullshit pullovers? It doesn't, it just changes the bullshit "reason" people get pulled over. And the examples you present - by your own admission - don't address the actual problems, and where the cameras are limited in scope (time and zone), the original problem remains.

> You literally don't understand the most basic issue here and you keep replying by quoting tiny parts of a comment and ignoring their context and going "gotcha!"

I'm continually asking questions about the core premise that 'using camera based enforcement to replace large classes of traffic stops' prevents abuse by authorities. You haven't provided any evidence that it does. You've just provided some ad hominem and say I don't understand.

> having cameras doesn't mean they can't stop people for speeding it needs it's own legislation

So when they're barred from pulling people over for "speeding", then... this prevents them from pulling over people for other bullshit reasons?

I just don't see how having shitty police and cameras are going to prevent these abuses of power.
I built and sold my side project for 60% more... Write up here... https://joelx.com/how-i-built-sold-my-dropshipping-biz-for-1...
This all hinges on "mainstream". For example, in combinatorics, combinatorial species are a vast organization of the all-important concept of generating function. They were developed by category theorists and are most tidily organized along categorical lines. If you don't think this is close enough to mainstream, I can't dispute that. It's a value judgment.

There is often an undercurrent of category theory within a subject that maybe most people are not privy to. Anything to do with sheaves or cohomology (which I know factors into some approaches to PDEs) are using categorical ideas.

Every generation, it seems, has some contingent of serious mathematicians who consider category theory marginal in their field of interest. But every generation, that contingent grows smaller as more mathematics as practiced is brought into the fold. Maybe they're coming for you next :)
How to play YouTube Music in the background on iPhone in 2020
What if I told you that OOP only provides illusions of reuseable components and that most OOP components aren't really that reuseable.

In order to build reuseable components you need components that compose well. Object composition does not allow for composition without specific glue code for each integration.

For example:

functions addOne and addTwo can compose to form addThree with a single general function composition operator, no glue code needed and no need for addOne or addTwo to be aware of each other. (addThree = addOne . addTwo)

OneAdder and TwoAdder cannot compose without specific glue code or specific interface code to allow for DI. ThreeAdder = composeAdder(OneAdder, TwoAdder) would be implementation specific. Additionally ThreeAdder(TwoAdder, OneAdder) makes ThreeAdder aware of TwoAdder and OneAdder. These are not qualities of reuseability. The existence of a mutating object breaks reuseability.

OOP does have it's use cases but the hate does comes from somewhere. One of the main downsides of OOP is the fact that current practices makes it one of the least reusable paradigms ever. DI and object composition are illusions. That being said it's not all that bad... not all business apps need the form of extreme reuseability that FP provides, so OOP is often good enough.

Muslims(like most of the religions) are not foreign in asserting a colonialist's supremacy on cultures that do not agree with their ethics.

As someone with good insurance through my employer I've seen first hand the incredible hassle the US system is.

It really stood out when I was traveling with my kid they needed a hospital stay. This was in SE Asia and at a private, international hospital.

My kid stayed in a private room, all meals included (including for family) for 3 days. I was a little nervous about the cost, but knew it wasn't going to be more than a few thousand dollars and my insurance would cover some.

The final bill? $600. A one-page, itemized bill with things like "antibiotic tablet - $0.50; 72 hr hospital room stay w/ nurse - $350".

Of course the cost is going to be much lower in a developing country, but damn, it was refreshing to see such a smooth process and clear price transparency.

Ignoring the insurance side for a moment - just knowing what things cost would be a massive step up for the US system.

OOP doesn't mean anything, so by definition, or lack therefore, it cannot be or not be widespread.

Rather, people need buzzwords do dress up their non-thoughts on software architecture, and no new ones supplanted OOP's so they are still in use.

Isn't the 9th circuit the court where most of the liberal judges sit. This decision can as well go to the Supreme Court and get overturned.

Yikes.

"Gas hydrate is an ice-like substance formed by water and methane at depths of several hundred metres at the bottom of our oceans at high pressure and low temperatures. Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, roughly 25 times more potent than carbon dioxide, and it is estimated that methane frozen in these sediments constitute the largest organic carbon reservoir on Earth. The fact that methane gas has now started leaking out through gas hydrate dissociation is not good news for the climate."

With the exception of the president, there is always an authority that can arrest/punish an authority (including the military).

Incorrect interpretation of the law is not what I am talking about, intentional violation is. The clerks that denied marriage licenses before the ruling did not violate the law and after the ruling yes, they did act on behalf of government (not that I am expressing my view on the matter). What happened was one clerk was jailed indefinitetly (human rights violation!) Until she complied instead of measured punishment and removal from office. Regarding the law makers, the law maker that introduced it should be punished if it can be proven he violated the bill of rights on purpose (intent).

You can't say the law is not clear enough to punish people. You're essentially saying the law is a guideline open to free interpretation. If I kill someone with a gun, is it murder? It depends right, even in such a simple scenario the law is not clear cut, that's why you have judges. A cop on duty can get away with a shooting if he feared for his life, in certain states you can proactively stand your ground and kill intruders. No matter what, judges interpret law and lack of clarity is fine.

The crime is violating constitutional law while acting on behalf of government. Intentional ignorance of the bill of rights or malicious violation of the same must be proven in court to find a person guilty.
> Then we do not live in a democracy with a rule of law. Why have the constitution at all?

The concept of checks and balances is an attempt to mitigate this problem. The "higher authority" is the other branches of government. But even that only goes so far.

Ultimately the entire scheme only works because individual humans agree to abide by the implicit social contract to live within the system of laws. To the extent that large number of people come to not feel bound by the social contract, well at some point you have some sort of haphazard and generally unjust system, insurrection, or even civil war.

I'm tempted to make some comments about recent events in the US, but suffice to say there are definitely some people who seem to think the current social contract isn't worth saving. And I'm not just talking about those taking action in the streets. There are plenty of people in elected positions of power who are behaving in that way also. It would be nice if those who feel like it isn't worth working within the system to improve things had any sort of an alternative. Unfortunately it is orders of magnitude easier to dismantle and destroy than it is to create and build. I hope we don't have to learn that lesson the hard way.
