False. What they are charging him with is a brief speculative chat discussion about potentially having Manning provide the hash of a password to Assange to help crack it. But this discussed behavior never actually happened and was never referenced by them again.

That's the conspiracy charge they indicted Assange for. If you don't believe me then read https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/wikileaks-founder-julian-assa... . If you say that's too long to read then just read the last 4 paragraphs.

They've bent over backwards to charge him here over something that literally did not happen and was only discussed as an option in passing. If they had anything else to charge him with they would. But they don't and rely on people like you propagating falsehoods.

The drone used in that situation is the "Little Ripper Lifesaver" which supposedly sells for around $50k[1].

From TFA, the cost for the boat was around $12k. That means this is about 4x more expensive, not 20x. That doesn't include the droppable inflatable boat but that is probably not going to break the bank either.

I had referenced the specific clause, 793(g), in my previous post to you. It is also referenced in the plea. I didn't think I needed to do so again. I can quote the section

>If two or more persons conspire to violate any of the foregoing provisions of this section, and one or more of such persons do any act to effect the object of the conspiracy, each of the parties to such conspiracy shall be subject to the punishment provided for the offense which is the object of such conspiracy.

Honestly I was just thinking about this - there have been many manga series (which get turned into anime eventually), that started out with an interesting premise that can be taken into many directions, only to turn into a cookie-cutter shonen battle manga.

I think I know the reason for this - shonen is a relentless popularity contest, where magazines only feature the most popular works and will quickly drop your series once it starts losing readers.

The way to consistently stay on top is to appeal to the biggest demographic - that is shonen battle/isekai fans by making your stuff to be exactly like the other stuff.

But doing so makes you lose the readers who were interested in the thing that made your manga unique in the first place. And after a time, these people will stop reading the publication altogether, skewing fan demographics even more towards genre fiction, making it even more impossible to create something unique.

I have seen this happen multiple times.

I bet they eventually run JITs using the exclave system, so that they can have full JIT performance in a hardware-isolated space. Lockdown mode is a good mitigation but a two-thirds performance loss is unacceptable, and once they get it working for lockdown mode they can drop all the hoopla. (Though it’ll still be complicated for multitasked apps on iPad.)
The article is really badly written. There is no "control" group (per the actual paper). Just a group that was given a lesser intervention.

The actual research paper is available, and while it suffers from a lack of a control group, it shows that there were indeed some pretty remarkable changes in the lives of participants, and that there were statistically significant differences between the low pay group and the high pay group (which... duh, $11,500 extra is going to make a huge difference). Of course, without a control group, it is pretty hard to say what the effect of the income is vs. other programs, self-help, external factors, etc.

> action would be taken upon those individuals to ensure accountability

Out of genuine curiosity: what "actions" do you want taken and what accountability are you interested in? I mean, to be blunt: you think this is a crime, right? You want someone charged and prosecuted in a court, with due process, in front of a jury of peers, yada yada.

So... what if your imaginary prosecutor jumps ship to somewhere else where they get arrested and detained, and then refuse to come back to the US to face trial. Are they not then a political prisoner? Why not?

The point being: Assange wasn't thrown in jail without trial, he was thrown in jail because he refused trial. And there's an important difference.
Yes, you're right, the other person had a very helpful tone indeed. My mistake.

It would look really bad to lose someone after landing on the carrier.

There are really really good reasons why certain places are expensive vs. cheap. Having no access to walkable areas, fresh food, education, safe water, or public amenities in general is not a dignified way to live for most people. It's not about fun, it's about your health, community, support system. Changing that situation in cheaper areas is not necessarily going to be easier than changing housing affordability.
No. Overt acts are not themselves criminal charges; they're evidentiary requirements for a conspiracy charge. Individual overt acts don't even have to be backed by statutes; an "overt act" in a conspiracy might not itself be a criminal violation at all. I think you're trying to work back from some faulty first principles here.

What you should do here is compare the plea stipulation to the superseding indictment, and note that the "overt acts" of the conspiracy charge refer back to the "general allegations" section. Or: you could go track down any other conspiracy indictment (Ulbricht's is a fun one) and see examples of "overt acts" listed explicitly.

You can read the first article. https://archive.is/txCN0

A summer camp run by the city government left a group of 9 teenagers "unsupervised" next to a lake. I feel safe in saying that a lake cannot constitute a public nuisance.

DJ McCutcheon, one of those teenagers, "was underwater for about six minutes before bystanders rescued him" [after which he subsequently died], strongly suggesting that he was unsupervised in only the most technical sense.

I would have to agree with WalterBright that Steilacoom didn't do anything unreasonable here. The idea that 13-year-olds can't be trusted not to kill themselves if left - not even alone, but away from an adult who is officially responsible for keeping them alive - for six minutes,† is completely absurd.

The legal trouble appears to have arisen mostly from the fact that leaving the group of teens "unsupervised" violated a formal written policy of the camp, not from the non-fact that it involved some kind of wrongdoing or recklessness.

† They were left for much longer than six minutes, but since 100% of the problem occurred within a six-minute window, a standard that aimed to solve the problem would require smaller periods of "unsupervision" than that.
The US no longer has politicians like Teddy Roosevelt anywhere in sight.

No. 18 USC 793(g) is the conspiracy charge. One of the elements of a conspiracy charge --- any conspiracy charge --- is one or more "overt acts" that demonstrate the accused was not merely associated with other members of the criminal group, but also actively participated in it. That's what the "any act" in your quote refers to --- those are the "overt acts". None are listed in this plea stipulation.

Here: a Ken White article that is almost entirely about how "overt acts" work in conspiracy charges, along with their historical purpose:

Ask HN: Windows vs. Mac for Development
I started out in windows then went to linux then to a Mac. I remember windows being pretty bad and linux being great but bad in other areas of life. Mainly non developer related applications being poor. I think it's much better today but still not a comparison to apple or windows.

Windows, still the winner in games and is neck and neck to Mac in apps. Probably up or down depending on the user.

Now, today I ask how much has Windows improved for developers given the 10+ years they have been investing back into the community. VS Code, Github, sub-shell etc ... These are all things I know about, but since they have come out, I've been out of the windows eco system and have not seen a good comparison today vs mac.

Anyone have any recent experiences going back to windows? or any reference articles of people doing a recent comparison?
This doesn’t make sense because the Assange case has been a diplomatic issue between the US and Australia ever since Albanese came to power.

Ultimately the responsibility falls to the President since the DOJ isn’t responsible for international relations. Biden must have thought the case was important otherwise there’s no reason to harm relations with an ally over something like that.

Far from it. Archive.org is a passion project funded and run by a moderately wealthy guy (Brewster Kahle).

Hopefully some kind of foundation exists to keep it going after he passes, but it's not a certainty.

Your electricity company and your internet provider are also making your use of that app possible. In fact, they've invested trillions to accomplish that. Shouldn't they be entitled to extract a percentage from each transaction?

It's been surprisingly great for filling out parts of my D&D campaign. I wanted to have a cooking show style contest and needed a bunch of dishes to be the competition. Here's one of the results I got:

Underdark Goulash:

Ingredients: Drow's darkstone potatoes (akin to sweet potatoes but darker, and with a slightly bitter tang), glimmerstool mushrooms (glow in the dark and have a smoky flavor), sahuagin seaweed (a deep-sea plant with a salty taste), and roper spices (ground up, they have a robust, gamy flavor).

Description: A hearty dish that pays homage to the unrelenting grit of an Underdark adventure. The darkstone potatoes and glimmerstool mushrooms provide a flavorsome base. The sahuagin seaweed's saltiness is reminiscent of the sea, while the roper spices add an unexpectedly pleasant gamey note. Much like an adventurer finding comfort in the dark caves, sometimes the most uncommon combinations lead to a profound satisfaction.

And they're all this good, like what the hell? How is this thing so creative? And it got exactly the snobby pander to the judges tone I asked for.

The AIs don't have any clue how to make a compelling narrative or interesting characters but for some reason it understands nouns.

The other point that bears making even more explicit is Jackson's enduring gratitude to his allies. For those of us privileged enough not not to be on the receiving end of social opprobrium, that's our moral duty. Beyond waving signs or signing petitions (I doubt Rollie Fingers ever did either! He doesn't seem the type), but actively, and in practical ways, to demonstrate solidarity and love. I don't know how well I do at that; however well I do, I'd like to do better.
