And my point is that travel papers aren't just something you need to travel with. It's a permission for specific travel.

You can argue that requiring an ID for traveling on a plane is too restrictive, but it's not travel papers.

How to Implement a Type Checker in Python 3
I've had a few instances where my wife has the key in her purse, which allows the car to be started, and I don't even realize I don't have my key on me. I drop her off somewhere and then notice. But both of our cars sound a loud alarm and show an impossible to miss message on the dash the instant the key leaves the car, so it's pretty hard to actually drive off without the key.
I'd be interested to hear how the experience goes and if it is worth the $1,500.

I still have my Lumia Icon (Windows platform) and it still out specs most smartphones. It was a solid phone, and I only switched back to Android because of the lack app support from Android and iOS developers.

With more developers starting to port their apps to the Windows platform, I'm considering going back to it.

Just as a comparison:

Display Pixel Density
Lumia Icon: 441
Google Nexus 6 (new): 493

Camera
Lumia Icon: 20MB
Google Nexus 6 (new): 13MB

Processor:
Lumia Icon: Quad core, 2200 MHz, Krait 400
Google Nexus 6 (new): Quad core, 2700 MHz, Krait 450

System Memory:
Lumia Icon: 2048 MB RAM
Google Nexus 6 (new): 3072 MB RAM

Keep in mind the Lumia was released in February 2014, The Nexus 6 was in November of 2015
I do understand that most of these bodies are toothless but we do have a CCI. The parent comment mentioned that we don't have one and I thought I would mention the fact that we do. As we speak, the CCI seems to be probing Indian telecoms.

I think that the truth is that:
1. The Finns got too cocky for their own good.
2. The forget to monitor the other guys.
3. Apple predictably made a smartphone (years after the ipod) and made a silly amount of money, and was dominating the high-end segment after a really short while.
4. Google decided to own the mobile ads market, and basically just not care about the hardware, and was starting to dominate virtually every other segment.
5. Nokia had a few platforms, some apps, and only the dying feature phone market, and they realized this.

They would have had a chance (maybe) to go for Android, but judging by for instance Sony (that I think build the best phones. period. ) it is really hard to compete with high-end stuff against Apple.
You've lost the thread. I'm originally responding to this:

...bringing in ideas that are different to what we have now...In the case of tech, that's women, ethnic minorities, LGBQT+, non-tech, etc.

I wasn't responding to this:

...bringing in people who are superficially different but think the same way in order to manipulate the media...

Obviously PR matters and I'm happy to let my company exploit my race for that purpose (though I probably wouldn't have taken the job if I thought that was a significant factor). But that's completely tangential to the original point.

"they gave me the offer few days after the interview"
"BUT not seeing an offer letter is also misleading"

Wait, what? Did they give you an offer or not? Until you see an offer letter signed by both parties you don't have a job.
How big is the tech company?
My offer letter was retracted after me having signed it as well.
Their reason was that due to all of the people would sit in one single room(it was a startup) adding one more person would breach their fire hazard safety threshold.
Point being, if the company is big and even somewhat reputed, an email is not really bad right now.
Give it a 2-4 days and if you still dont receive a reply, just go for it
It really isn't surprising for anyone who has read his history that he is not a very moral person.

He made the precursor to Facebook by hacking servers and stealing people's pictures.

It sounds like you should work on your negotiation skills. I'm willing to bet you do have leverage - and if you truly don't - why do you think you deserve as much money as someone who does? If they have more to offer then surely they should be paid more for being better qualified and able to offer more value to the company?

> I feel like favoring negotiators favors people who don't care who they work for, and are most interested in money.

Why not both? I love who I work for and would not leave to any other company that offered equivalent or even slightly better pay. Even if offered much superior pay, I would consult first with my company about a raise to match the offer given before making a decision to leave or not.

If the company I am working for doesn't think I deserve the pay the other company does - chances are I'm going to choose the other company. Simply because being valued is nice. Not being valued or deemed "worth keeping" would make me think I am not wanted at my current company, making leaving for a company that does want me sound rather appealing.
When I was a kid we used to try to guess the computer science teacher's password. (This was back when a mischievous computer science student would be made to do some manual labor around the school-- not sent to federal prison.)

After too many attempts it would lock us out and we'd have to wait to try again. One day when our teacher was trying to start class he found that he had been locked out. We all started laughing and he knew why.

The next day there was a sign on the door telling us that the class had been moved to a new room. When we arrived we found that the classroom had no computers. The work was the same. The lessons progressed. But we wrote all that Pascal on paper. We only had one chance to turn something in and I remember going home and trying to remember all the code to type into my home computer to see if my program would compile.

Anyway, I would suggest someone sending this guy a copy of The Little Schemer. Anyone can read that book and gain great confidence in a short amount of time while starting to think the way a programmer ought to think.

While I am in general a fan of Google (like AppEngine, Android, etc. contracted at Google in 2013), it is important to prevent harming markets due to effective monopolies. One problem is that anti-competitive practices may cause long term harm to markets while making consumers happy short term. Really a tough issue to deal with fairly.

I did notice something odd today in Google search results: I searched for "surface 3" and the link I wanted was a top paid for ad link. In the past, I could look down the page and see similar unpaid links, but not today.

I'd argue they did build a technology solution, they did constrain their ideas to achieve it during the hack-a-thon, and their "inspiration" award is just that. They were awarded for their ideas and efforts, despite their lack of skills. It's a message of encouragement to others who are just starting out.

That's a fair point too, but I'm taking the premise of the current tax code (that cost of living doesn't matter), as a given. I'd be less unhappy with the marriage penalty if the tax code otherwise accounted for cost of living.
> Having no organization like EFF is something that needs to be fixed.

I think the closest organization to EFF that India has is the Centre for Internet & Society (CIS). Though, the aim of CIS isn't about digital civil rights like EFF. It is more to study Internet related policy with respect to India. Many times, CIS does take similar stands to that of EFF would given the situation.

If you found a nation on an idea, the specifics of the idea are going to be hammered out.

Both the idea of "freedom" and the idea of impeding others' freedoms have been specified in US legislation and in the case history of the US court system. Without going through and clarifying what freedom and impeding freedom mean in different situations, the US economy could not exist at its present size.

Investors can be confident that life will go smoothly based on the US Government. That's what powers the US Treasury, which powers low interest rates, which powers our economy.

A good reference.

My take home is that every single version that is possible to do in old style formatting is longer in new style formatting. Even more so if the old-style formatting were written without the extraneous 1-ples.

'%4d' % 42

vs

'{:4d}'.format(42)

It isn't surprising that so much code is still being written in old-style. The advantages of the new style, like padding with arbitrary characters; value reuse (particularly for I18n, though that tends to use a different mechanism for production systems that need it); and nested display; are really quite minor.

This feeds into the other python issue on HN today - why does py3 have so little uptake? Because it is a solution to a problem few people have.
The complicated part of this is that your tax owed (and, by association, a refund from over-withholding) is contingent on tax credits and deductions. The article mentions this in relation to EITC—briefly. But it doesn't mention other things, like the Home Mortgage Interest Deduction, which comprises the bulk of my refund this year.

I could monkey around with my W-4, but it would be like robbing Peter to pay Paul.
Technically the US was founded on that ideal, then the Articles of Confederation was seen to be unworkable, so they federalized a bunch of power in the Constitution, which was then amended with the original Bill of Rights because the Constitution without didn't really guarantee freedom.

It's important to not hand waive away that evolution, because the US is not run on the most-free system of government that could have been imagined in 1776. We ratcheted that down almost immediately, and to argue otherwise is incorrect.
It's been eight years, but in 2007 I was able to fly from Columbia, SC to Atlanta, GA without any personally identifying documents whatsoever - I showed up at the airport without a ticket, without a wallet, without anything.

I was flying home for a funeral and as such was fairly distraught, so perhaps they cut me some slack on that account. I don't remember any specific hassles though.

There are many arguments in favor of a flat tax beyond just simplicity, fairness among them. Also, I wasn't just suggesting a flat tax, I was suggesting a much lower flat tax.

If you took current government revenue from income taxes as a percentage of total personal income and just used that as the flat tax rate, that would indeed be quite unreasonable, mostly because that revenue number is far too high. On the other hand, a flat rate in the 4-5% range might not be unreasonable.

Or, alternatively, a simple formula that would still count as "flat tax":

tax = flat_rate * max(income - floor, 0)

Where "floor" is a threshold below which you pay no taxes. That would address the set of people for whom even a tiny increase in taxes could make the difference between making ends meet and not.
Initially, Amazon pays. Once the users are locked in - ISPs demand more money from Amazon. Of course, Amazon passes on these costs to the consumer in small little $1-2 unnoticeable amount. In the end, the consumer pays Amazon to have special access on the ISPs plus the ISPs to make money from Amazon despite no additional service or product.

If Facebook will provide free limited internet (and as always, you can pay regularly to get full internet access) for a lot of basic service, it only seems reasonable they will package their facebook and messenger apps as well.

On the whole, do you think internet.org is a bad, negative effort?
In the article, there's a link to a TSA Blog article that assures readers you don't need an ID to pass through security.

And, at the bottom of that article, there's a link to another TSA site, which lists acceptable IDs ('You can find a list of acceptable IDs here.', emphasis mine).

Hilariously, the first line of that page is:
'Adult passengers 18 and over must show valid identification at the airport checkpoint in order to travel.'

The general theory is the amplification works both ways. The device listens for any signal on a certain band and re-transmits it at a higher power. Signals from the car to the keyfob are amplified as are signals from the keyfob to the car. Noise canceling circuitry prevents it from getting into a feedback loop. This sort of thing exists for garage door openers[1].

In practice, I have found the keyfobs tend to transmit with enough power that 50ft isn't a problem, provided they get an activation ping from the car.
