As to the reason I referenced marsh v alabama,

"Apple owns an enormous campus. My company doesn't. Is it fair that Apple gets to lay claim to a larger part of available real estate just because they can afford it? Well, yeah. I believe so, anyway."

The difference being that Apple cannot arbitrarily claim to own your real estate.

If you create a work that is worth a great deal, but cannot claim it to have that value because you cannot afford to pay the taxes (yet), a large organization can safely appropriate that work while only paying the smaller amount of damages.

Hm; one question: Could they then claim that it is their work, put a large value on it, and put you out of business?
Contracts!

You would contract with a particular for-profit legislative system the same way you contract with an insurance company and a police company and a war-defense company. The insurance company would have contracts with investigative companies and retributive force companies.

When you get into a dispute with your neighbor over whether they are allowed to build a wall that might cross on to your property, you contact your court company and your insurance company. The court company sends someone to talk to your neighbor and get details of their jurisprudence subscription. If they subscribe to the same courts, excellent! They have jurisdiction and can decide whether this is a minor violation of the contract (see rules on respecting property lines) or a major violation. Violations can be punished by corrective action or fines equivalent to the costs of such.

If the neighbor uses a different court system, perhaps they have a treaty-contract with your court system. In that case the treaty-contract will supply the rules.

Oh, but maybe there isn't a treaty-contract. The court companies might take this opportunity to negotiate one. Or, they might notify their insurance companies that they have a conflict. Maybe their insurance companies have a mutual non-aggression contract, in which case they might force the court companies to negotiate a treaty-contract or lose insurance coverage.

See? Utopia!
Oh this is easy. Just rate ACAB. Anyone willing to actively participate in a racist and unjust system like American policing certainly deserves the ACAB badge.
Echos and Homes are natural-language understanders that remain on in people's rooms. I know I didn't cite Google except via YouTube. Google Fi, Google Voice are...who knows, but I'm pretty sure your call contents are available to them. But by "more" I didn't necessarily mean a superset; I meant a greater amount of stuff: your email, your postings, your messages to your friends, when you do stuff, where you've been, etc.
With the number of mass shootings we have in America, I'm surprised I've never seen a story about a terminally ill person with astronomical medical debt going on a rampage at their insurance company's corporate office.

Would probably make for a good movie concept - kind of a modernization of Falling Down.
Ron Desantis rules by virtue signalling, it doesn't matter if the law is effective as long as it angers liberals and pleases conservatives.
You previously claimed he's charged with "soliciting and attempting to assist in the exfiltration of the information", "not with publishing". I fail to see how arguing intent invalidates one without the other. I copied and pasted the charges from the indictment, which can be found at the bottom of the page I linked.
Ah got it, yes I’ll note this for next week’s update. Thanks and definitely let us know any other feedback! thomas@napkin.io :)
I just use the functions on my Instant Pot. The "Boil" function brings it to around 180°F. Then I let it cool to between 90-115°F before adding the yogurt. Then use the "More" function and it sets a timer for 12 hours ("Less" goes for 24, and I've never used it). All of these functions are available under the yogurt button on the Instant Pot.

My understanding is it may be possible to skip the boiling if you are using ultrapasteurized milk (lactose-free milk often is) from a just-opened container.
Definitely. We're working on our priority list and will give these a +1.

Replace "vegan" with "stop cruelty". It's not a diet. It's a mindset not wanting to cause unnecessary suffering.

Why would you want to continue funding a cruel and biosphere destroying industry (factory farming) if you don't need their products to survive. In our society eating animal flesh is mostly to experience culinary pleasures. If you look at it from a logical perspective, it doesn't make sense, all that waste and inefficiencies in that system - tech folks should appreciate that.

Veganism doesn't mean you're automatically on a healthy diet. You can be vegan on Pringles and Coke.

Game Changers just shows you can thrive at an athletic level on a plant based diet.

We humans gave up other horrific practices from the past - so the future is vegan (reduced cruelty), but we don't have to wait - we can start now.
Just reead through "The Machine Stops". That is unbelievably ahead of its time. Great read
You're going to need to provide some actual evidence rather than a bunch of rambling babble from conspiracy theorists.
For your example you picked the highest paid officer in one of the richest areas in the state where police officers make the most money. It does seem that police in California make a ton of money, but it's really not representative of the entire country. Take a look at that Forbes link you posted.

Despite reading your articles, I still don't think $100/hr is a reasonable approximation of an average cop's hourly rate, and thats before getting into the fact that the guy making half a million for watching Warriors games is probably not the guy pulling you over.
There are very stringent differences between IP and "someone's thoughts".
No they don't. Governments act by means of violence. That's why they are dangerous. Social media companies have never killed, tortured, or imprisoned anyone. The worst they can do is refuse to deal with you.
Awesome. I have been reading the front page for years and never saw that before. I guess I never scrolled to the bottom... or maybe it's new? I notice it's a different site. Anyway. This thread can be deleted or ignored or whatever now. Thanks detaro
Thanks. Is it true that it is missing basic procedures like "colonoscopy", as the article implies?
No-one cares about this. People have no clue about licenses and just copy-paste whatever. If someone gets access to their code and see all the violations they're screwed anyway.
Have you considered any other possible explanation for this besides that he "refuses" to publish stuff about Russia?
And why do you just assume that there is anything at all to publish about Russia, anyway? Russia bad, right? You're a brainwashed russophobic bigot.
This is more information will make more freedom fallacy. Technology doesn’t solve bad ideas and bad philosophy.
Hi, neovim core member here.

Which UI plugins do you need? We've done a lot of work leading up to 0.5 in improving the built-in handlers, so you shouldn't need a UI plugin. I think the main plugins people install (in addition to lspconfig):

* nvim-compe (autocompletion)

* vim-vsnip (snippets)

* lsp_signature.nvim (automatically pop up signature window, note signature_help is built-into core, just manually triggered)

Some people use lspsaga.nvim, but borders are already merged into the core handlers (and our floating windows now provide better markdown styling than lspsaga), so the main utility of lspsaga is in the different way of interacting with code actions, which I personally do not prefer.

Anyways, please open an issue or PR if you have concrete suggestions (or start a discussion on our discourse)! I'm personally very invested in improving the UX around the built-in language server client, and it has really improved leading up to the 0.5 release.
Receipts aren’t the only issue. Take something as simple as a family restaurant, a purchase of say rice may look completely legit but if the family takes it home for personal use then that’s not a business expense. It’s hard to track that stuff down, but misclassification is the most common form of tax fraud rather than falsified records which simply take more effort.
thanks for the non-story
Quick, let's cancel Stefan George next!
The Trump administration's price transparency rule seems like a good start but this article makes it seem like compliance is inconsistent and typically the bare legal minimum (rather than meeting the intentions of the law). In reality pricing should be up-front, before you visit a provider, with clarity on exactly what services are being provided, what the cost of those services will be, and what the cost is elsewhere in the area. If additional services could be necessary based on diagnosis, the highest likelihood "add ons" should also be advertised up-front similarly. When care is provided in the moment, the same should apply. The prices also need to fit some standard that is reasonably easy to interpret, unlike the mess of codes that exist today, resulting in dubious insurance claims.

I know that's a lot and I'm sure those suggestions could use some refinement - but my worry is that the increased price transparency we're getting now is not something customers can put to use in practice. That is, it may have no effect on improving competition in healthcare. Lastly, any new rules we put into place need to have real consequences attached - like fines and jail time that would serve as actual deterrents to non-compliance.
Insurance billing practices should be criminal theft.
> Being generous and giving people the benefit of the doubt at best perpetuates a bad habit

It's actually a great habit that helps facilitate polite discussions. It's called the principle of charity and unless I'm mistaken it's actually one of the rules of this site.
In it's current form it isn't scalable compared to renewables. Maybe modular reactors will change that.
AFAIK the libertarian view on this topic is pretty clear. Violating a contract is violating the “Non aggression principle” and the landlord is considered as acting in self-defense.
That would be one of the differences between "someone's thoughts" and IP.

FWIW, your "vim stack" is identical to mine. I also use a python lsp implementation, plugged in to ALE.

I'd mirror your comments, and especially emphasize the speed aspect. (I think your ordering of comparisons matches the ranking of differences).
Honestly, I'm at the point where I hope you get your way. It'll hopefully lead to a proper secession of states so that the increasingly obvious fact that the country has split into two irreconcilable societies can be made a reality and we can all live in peace. Let's hope that the separation happens peacefully.
> almost definitely going to turn into a harassment and doxxing platform.

This site only uses publicly available information. How would it enable more harassment if someone can goto www.agency.com/officers and get the same info?
Perhaps it will help with the uninsured by giving them negotiation power and the ability to compare prices between hopsitals, as the article mentions. Insurance companies, on the other hand, won't change their premiums -- but is healthcare expensive for someone with insurance?
What happens? Facebook eats it from all sides.

I didn't say they were doing a good job, just that the alternative would have been to let the platform turn into a complete cesspool of bullshit and hate.

This scenario is a curse you get when you are operating a gigantic Internet forum at that kind of scale.
This wasn't a biological weapon.

Gain of function research was being carried out for the benefit of society (or resume padding). However, it wasn't subject to oversight (to put it mildly) and was being handled by a lab ill-equipped to do so safely.

China has massive zoonotic reservoirs. The US researchers that led the world in Coronavirus study wanted to do gain of function, but couldn't do it domestically and didn't have access to the wild novel coronaviruses.

Money and notes changed hands, and the Wuhan lab went about gain of function research. The lab was sloppy, the modified virus leaked, and the rest is history.

There are probably only a handful of people ultimately responsible for this. The individuals from the US writing the proposals and pushing for it despite lack of safety, and those in China that knew the risks but went ahead. (The coverup and slow responses are also to blame for the spread.)

Millions of deaths out of lack of oversight and desire for personal prestige. That's the story.
Glad we stuck with SolarWinds! These RMM tools are just too juicy a target for the ransomware gangs now. This is going to keep happening.

The government not taking the 'right' option is not an argument for the creation of this website. Having the authorities run it instead of some random people (trolls, extremists, foreign intelligence, who knows) is not the same.
That was the approach prior to the invention of intellectual property. It has problems.

> If the buyer is a spammer

What if the seller is a spammer or scammer, and first sells the account, remembers the private key, and a bit later starts spamming or scamming

> It would be easy to determine from the (anonymous) social graph that those 99999 people are only connected to each other and a small group of other (real) people

If the "group of people" is small, yes. I didn't say that the group was small though.

If it is larger, and they arrange the connections in realistic looking ways (for detection algorithms), then they can get away with it. Think of an island where most people are connected with others on the island only -- and maybe 10% of them connected to people on the mainland. Something like that can happen in real life I suppose, and the "group of people" (possibly many, paid by a company or a state) could construct such graphs and pretend to be more than what they are

> An algorithm looking at this graph could then select 100 people out of the 99999 group and require them to meet with 2 other distantly-connected people at a specified public place

That's an interesting way to try to handle that. However, first the algorithm would need to realize that a part of the graph is suspicious. (And people would need to be really motivated to, in real life, actually go to somewhere :-) ? what of they're busy with friends and family)
Public expectations of science:

1) resolves every question

2) in a socially acceptable way (in other words, says what society "knows" is right, and we know from history how "right" society was historically. We consider ourselves, of course, as uniquely right. Just like every other society did, except they were wrong about it)

3) in a simple enough way for idiots to understand, without nuance

4) without criticizing the people involved in making or executing the decision

And people will happily publish, support and even base legislation on bullshit if it upholds the above requirements.

Needless to say, actual science does not follow any such principles. Plenty of questions aren't resolved, or can only be resolved when oversimplified. There is plenty of "antisocial" science. E.g. average racial and sexual differences in intelligence are real, and known to be at least in part biological. Stating that while there are more intelligent women than men in a random group of 100 of each, but that the smartest and dumbest individuals in the group are still almost always men is not accepted. Or stating that an abused child (whether it's bad parents, bad schools, bad environment or kidnapping) will very likely become an abuser themselves and helping this child will likely make it worse is not accepted. And we all know what happens when one points out that a politician has made a 180 without the science changing.
>but it's frustrating how almost every build requires a few critical pieces that we don't have

This is to add exclusive value to each set. Look at bricklink.com and find an expensive set, and you'll always find one or two pieces that are a unique color or completely unique to the set that are astronomically high in price. The original Millennium Falcon UCS set for example has two grey (I forget which specific grey) ladder pieces to highlight the engine, and those are the pieces that were most expensive last I looked.
Interesting idea but this is very likely to be sued out of existence very quickly. And depending on the nature of the anonymous comments left on specific officers' records, the operators of the website could very easily be criminally prosecuted.
Cool, you gonna do that? What you're describing is networking and that's not going to fight that decades of built nepotism and brotherhoods.
Just as we more than make up for the cost of residents using public services with the money they spend on living costs.
You'd be surprised. Florida has some of the highest building standards in accordance to disaster/hurricane protection in the US thanks to the major hurricanes of the 80s; this may prove a watershed moment for the same to happen for corrosion prevention & maintenance standards today.

Of course that won't do anything for buildings already standing (in fact this condo would have also been rolled over by a hurricane too given its construction date) but it could be revolutionary for new construction
This is not a "sensitive" issue, unless you consider GP's opinion "sensitive". I don't. I also don't think it would lead to a curious, constructive conversation. There is probably nothing OP could offer which would change what the experience of 8 years in RH engineering showed me. At best, it would lead to another long reply where I tried to explain what RH was actually like versus GP's impression.

It's essentially GP posting on the Debian/OpenBSD/LK ML and saying "wow, these guys are arrogant". Well, they have strong opinions, and they need to justify them. If you don't have thick skin, you should probably avoid upstream discussions. It doesn't mean you should cast aspersions on the developers or their communities/companies. Linus is an incredibly nice person, but you wouldn't think it if all you saw was his mails blasting Intel for Spectre/Meltdown. You'd have a very different opinion of the man than who he is in 99% of interactions, and commenting about it on HN would be likely to get a reply similar to mine.

GP only had "anecdotal" experience with Red Hat versus actually working inside the company. When I started, I was worried that it would be different "behind the curtain". It was not. The other who mentioned junior engineers speaking up if they disagreed was spot on.

In 201x (2015? 2017? I dunno), RH changed their pay structure from being bimonthly to biweekly in the US to align with the rest of the world. There were hundreds of replies to the entire company debating whether it was better to pay us once a month and manage your money better, or once a week to be more consistent, or...

That's what the company was. It was not by the time I left. Granted, when I started, RH HQ was still on a college campus. If all you ever read was upstream mailing lists, you'd get the feeling that everyone (Linux, Theo [not that he works for RH, obviously], Lennart, whomever) other than Dan Walsh was arrogant assholes. That's not representative of who they actually are.

Painting Red Hat with a broad brush from incidental interactions versus the perspective of someone who spent nearly a decade there is dramatically different. Did it have problems? Sure. But none of the ones GP mentioned. The world is much bigger than what GP imagined from his anecdotal experience.

RH was a unicorn, and it's gone. LinkedIn last summer was essentially rats fleeing a sinking ship. IBM spent $35B on a company with no actual assets (a few patents) other than smart, passionate people. They would have had to really try to screw it up. And they did. I don't honestly know if there will be another RH in the future, but I'm hoping there will be.
Base salary is a fraction of what cops earn. Indeed, it is a way to hide what they actually earn. Check this out:

Deputy Jason Wood is the sort of shitty cop that I would like to avoid based on his poor ratings from interactions with my community. He can be heard in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xc4iEjycDCw repeatedly urging his dog to attack a suspect who was on his knees with his hands in the air. He subsequently got a DUI https://mynews4.com/news/local/washoe-county-deputy-charged-.... Deputy Jason Wood is still a Washoe County Sheriff's deputy today, and indeed has been promoted since those incidents. We paid him $242,000 https://transparentnevada.com/salaries/2020/washoe/jason-d-w... in total compensation last year - plus we paid the guy in that video $17,500 for the mauling and beating.

He also shot a guy to death in 2014, but there was no video of that and police investigated themselves and determined that there was no wrongdoing.

If you want to do some naive math, $242k divided by 40hr/week divided by 52 weeks/year is $116/hr in total compensation.

Oh he got a second DUI this year too.

The network layer is the concrete that is there, the public sidewalk, the concept of a free speech stage on that concrete, the thing you see, and put ideas onto, is more application layer IMO.

If the sidewalk concept stops at the network layer, then free speech stops at being able to make a VOIP call, not very useful to the concept of free speech at all

To hold a sign up that has my message, one to many over a time period (stateful), is application layer, IMO
