> "Students whose off-campus behavior has a significant adverse impact on the University community, its members, and/or the pursuit of its mission and educational objectives."

You grabbed the wrong quote. That was from an earlier draft. This is what is in the final draft:

"Student behavior which occurs off-campus in which the University can demonstrate a clear and distinct interest as an academic institution regardless of where the conduct occurs and a) which causes substantial disruption to the University community or any of its members, b) which involves academic work or any University records, documents, or identifications, or c) which seriously threatens the health or safety of any person."
Interesting that you used the term "document management" as opposed to "content management." I cut my teeth as a "document management" consultant in the early 90s, when it was really just documents. I thought the "content management" term took over.
I'm Jewish too.

I tend to think the last few thousand years have given us well-honed antisemitism detectors. I definitely see this as antisemitic.

Would anyone dare to say about literally any other group "If I were x I wouldn't be able to live with myself because..."?

I'm not saying everyone who says something like that 14 years ago should be fired. But a head of diversity?

Fair, however the text when updated includes:

"which causes substantial disruption to the University community or any of its members"

Again, disruption to members can, and has been, classified as "making feel uncomfortable". The language of this, in any revision shown, is dangerous. Someone being upset could easily argue that the "disruption" caused them harm, and prevented them from carrying out the institution's academic goals. This is functionally the same point, just couched in slightly more vague terminology.

Where in the policy mandate anything to do with monitoring social media? I get how it could be twisted into that by the university if they wished, but that is unproven.

Look, actively monitoring social media is weird but the general policy that what you say outside of work or school can affect you in work or school is a good thing. This kind of policy is necessary any time people don't have a choice of who they interact with.

The example from my lived experience is bullying at school. I mean it was literally assault but since we were kids it's considered less of a problem for some reason. But my bullies weren't stupid, they would never do it in view of a teacher or they would just wait just outside of school grounds. So despite the fact that I lived less than a mile from my home I had wait three hours every day at the office for my parents to get off work and pick me up. The school had zero power to punish them for anything they did off school grounds while every. single. day. I had to be in class with them. Does that sound like a healthy environment for learning?

Alright, so assuming that you believe that words can be just as harmful and create just as much a toxic environment surely the same policy should apply. It's not about workplaces or schools supplanting the police (not that they would care or do anything anyway) but that creating a healthy environment in a school and workplace means being aware of what happens outside of them. Pretending that I could be comfortable being in school with my bullies because "technically they couldn't hurt me here" misses the point entirely that I still lived in fear.

I have only one social media account under my given name. I only interact with a few people I know using the social media account using my given name. I tell everyone else I don't do social media when asked and I won't go through social media for anything important. And I get that certain large organizations know who I really am, I'm not naive. But the entire world doesn't need to know what I am doing on social media. It is none of their business. None. At all. Ever.
I didn’t miss it; it’s just not valid. (1) The HD800S is actually not as highly regarded as you may think on ASR because these issues do show up in the measurements and are pointed out in the review (did you read it?), but also (2) the HD800’s issues are indeed very much fixable with EQ, and I can confirm this subjectively with direct experience with my HD800S.

I hope you’re not thinking I’m advocating a crude N-band equalizer to broadly boost the bass and reduce the treble to fix the HD800’s thin-ness and brightness. I’m talking about very precise filters that the community has optimized mathematically to fit the measured response to the ideal Harman target curve: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/s...

There is no reason scientifically to believe this wouldn’t work, other than the maximum driver excursion and distortion limits of the headphones. Fortunately the HD800S bass is extremely clean and undistorted, and they respond really well here. I’ve tried this with other headphones, and most cheaper headphones do struggle greatly, while the HD800S sub-bass is extremely impressive, clean, and powerful when EQ’ed in this way. And even more importantly, this works wonders to smooth out peaks in the treble that sound too harsh to be prior to EQ.

Even if it couldn’t be fixed with precise EQ though, this is still something we can measure objectively via max SPL and distortion vs frequency tests. For example, another highly regarded headphone is the Focal Clear, and it unfortunately has severe bass SPL / driver excursion limits that rules it out from being corrected in this way.

Of course it’s a fair criticism that such expensive headphones should require EQ at all! And the HD800S are indeed criticized in this way on ASR! Sadly though, it seems virtually all headphones do require EQ to sound remotely near their maximum possible sound quality potential, in terms of their physical capability. I personally love the HD800S for a number of reasons, but one of them is extreme comfort (which definitely is subjective), but I will be the first to admit their sound is painful to my ears until corrected with EQ.

This entire blog is just outrage fodder. They take a shred of truth from a news story, warp it beyond all recognition, add a headline about “cancelled” or “silence” or “triggered”, and then watch the angry people stir to action for their cause. This blog post is not interesting because it’s composed almost entirely of misinformation and false insinuation.
And, crucially, no one on any side of the issue is seriously endorsing child labor, so it's a spurious suggestion. Strawmen arguments don't merit refutation, they just merit ignoring.
Bot networks aren't really needed, they can just be real people. Young people disproportionately use social media, young women especially so. The intersection of those two groups happen to be left leaning [0], and more socially connected which I'm using as a proxy for political awareness [1]. Plus in my general experience people are just really vocal about identity politics. It wouldn't be an unreasonable assumption that the primary demographic of a website are not a fan of content that challenges their world-views.

It is curious. Because no where in Turley's article, or in the policy he links to, can I find it saying the school is to actively monitor social media statements of its students. In fact, the word "social media" doesn't come up once in the policy document. Maybe it says something in less explicit terms? If someone can find it, let me know.

So I'm left with the impression that the title of the article is click-bait. It doesn't sound like the school is going to require access to social media accounts and actively monitor those. All it seems to be saying is that conduct outside of school can be punished? Is that even new?

I have this vague feeling that Turley wouldn't have a problem with private employers that are not schools firing people for things they say. But I could be wrong.

btw, this is Jonathan Turley of defend-Trump-in-impeachment-trial fame.

But, I wouldn't judge too early. The university clearly caters to an audience which is voting with their borrowed/hard earned money to pay their tuitions [1]. It's not like your are forced to study there. If nothing else, other education providers will grow with the influx of new money.

Altria-Juul Deal Goes to Trial
The problem for Boeing is when the buying of new ones happens. If it is in 10 years, then they want to invest in this new plane. If everyone starts being like Delta and flying lots of old aircraft, then they want to wait for the new jets.
The costs matter, but also permission. I'm essentially running small DDoS attacks and measuring performance under potentially heavy load. If I just signup and do it without permission, I could negatively impact other customers. That would be unacceptable ethically for me. There is also a lot of security measures in place to block these kinds of tests, that without permission, the tests would look like: https://wphostingbenchmarks.com/company/aleforge/ their LoadStorm test. They weren't willing to turn off security measures and it blocked most of the requests. Impossible to tell what a non-attack looking load would experience, but because of testing tools sending large amounts of visitors from a very small pool of IPs, it appears like a DDoS attack and security measures block it.

Also thanks :) I am glad you find the work valuable!

New Bicep Language as Replacement for JSON Based ARM Templates (Azure)
At some high schools, books with art of that type would have been strictly prohibited in the libraries.

Even at others, looking at art in a book about art, that happens to have naked ladies pictured, would be seen as completely different (and more obviously scholarly) than looking at naked ladies, whoever originally painted them, on the computer. Once it's on the computer, it's just Internet Porn.
Yes, but it doesn't say that the school is actively monitoring anything. The title of the article makes it sound like they are requiring passwords to people's social media accounts--like the US government does for visa applicants.
> The issue is that you're immediately deciding that domain X and domain Y are different entities.

That's... literally what domain means.

"A domain name is an identification string that defines a realm of administrative autonomy, authority or control within the Internet." - Wikipedia

The entire security policy of the Internet is built on this definition. It's not an assumption. It's a core mechanism.
Hum... The resource is not that important to me. I'm just the author of the current page, and are letting the browser know that users are very likely to want that resource.

You are attributing a lot of intention into a mechanism. You don't know if it's a 3rd party tracker or the news link in a discussion page.

The proposal at the article is actually quite good, since I should always know very well if it will load into a frame or a link.

Eh, you had me up until the ‘ultimately saving from bankruptcy’ part. PE cares about investor return, not some high and mighty altruistic end goal no?

There are plenty of PE deals of companies no where near insolvency, where the companies just had some more juice that could be squeezed (short/medium/long term depending, but usually short/medium term). If it’s a problem if THAT ends in bankruptcy or not depends on if they are able to get sufficient positive return/exit before they get hit by any losses - seen that many times.

Okay, fine. I totally understand some people might have complaints with the previous language and the new language.

Can you help me understand how the headline of linked post isn't just...factually wrong, though?

The headline is: "University of Oregon will monitor students' social media statements". Unless I'm missing something that's just factually incorrect. What I'd like to get to is: Did I miss something, or is that headline just wrong?

A sentence from the article is: "Now, the Board of Trustees at the University of Oregon have approved a vague policy that mandates the monitoring of the social media exchanges and other “conduct” of its students"

I can't find "social media" or any form of a "mandate" to "monitor" social media in the document. Again, I'm trying to figure out: did I miss something or fail to understand something, or is that sentence just factually wrong?
Yes. A (secret?) US military project testing drone surveillance on unwitting US navy assets.

I used to (2012 - 2014) work on that Sounding Rocket program the article talks about. I never saw a monochrome screen, but the computers handling the telemetry monitoring during launches were old Dolch lunchbox style cases holding a single board PC with a really cruddy LCD panel. The computers were either 386s or 486s (depending on which one you got) running DOS 6 and a program written for telemetry monitoring in 1989 called 'tdp502.exe'. This was written in Borland Turbo C++ and was rather flaky.

Coming off a program with 2000s era equipment for telemetry and monitoring, going to this was a big shock and the pain of using such antiquated equipment made everything very difficult.
Maybe you are right in terms of strict definitions, but in reality the proprietary software effectively creates the walled garden from which the users can't escape.

This link is only for "High-Functioning Alcoholism" which is not the same as the entire spectrum of Alcoholism, your link even mentions this in the first sentence.

> When someone is colloquially termed a “high-functioning alcoholic”, they may be able to carry out daily tasks of living [trimmed] without exhibiting the full range of clinical impairments commonly associated with alcohol use disorders.

The sources listed in the article further breakdown different types of tolerances and their effects. For example source 5,

[5] https://pubs.niaaa.nih.gov/publications/aa28.htm

> Tolerance means that after continued drinking, consumption of a constant amount of alcohol produces a lesser effect or increasing amounts of alcohol are necessary to produce the same effect (1). Despite this uncomplicated definition, scientists distinguish between several types of tolerance that are produced by different mechanisms.

They then list the details of "Functional Tolerance", "Acute tolerance", "Environment-dependent tolerance", "Learned tolerance", "Environment-independent tolerance", "Metabolic Tolerance".

To imply that Functional Tolerance is synonymous with all forms of alcohol tolerance is incorrect, and it's incorrect to say that's "the" modern view on alcohol tolerance.

Source [6] is a book called "Understanding Why Addicts Are Not All Alike
Recognizing the Types and How Their Differences Affect Intervention and Treatment" which should tell you that generalizing all alcoholics into a single type is probably not the most correctly accepted modern view on alcoholism.
I would think that the original intent of the origin cache sandboxing here, is to disallow different source origins from sharing a target origin, even if that target origin wants to be shared. Think "the target origin is an ad-tracking provider domain."

I don't see any good way of enabling a target origin to opt into allowing source origins to share caches with it, that wouldn't also reintroduce the privacy leaks. (As, after all, even if the only things malicious-site-X can see in your cache are ad-tech providers' origins that opted into allowing anyone to interface with them, that's likely still enough to fingerprint you.)

Which is largely driven by government regulation. This is not people doing it willingly just for the sake of reducing consumption. Governments have the power to do things like this. But even then, it remains to be seen if this will actually reduce overall energy usage. It could simply mean people keep their houses warmer/cooler all year round and energy usage stays the same. Or the "saved" energy merely gets diverted to some other use.

Not just Boeing, every aircraft manufacture does this. Many aircraft clean-sheet designs are done as a technology partnership with a major engine manufacture such as Pratt & Whitney, Rolls Royce, or General Electric. And that's pretty much how it's always been done. It's as ludicrous to say "Boeing is behind on engine technology" as it would be to say Ford is behind on their silicon chip manufacturing.
The problem is now that this exists and is easy to set up, it's easy for the manufacturer to make a device where they're in control of the keys forever instead of the eventual owner gaining control.
