Ha ha ha! Displace much, Turkey?

"Serdar Argic" was just a symptom of a much larger and weirder disease. Also: 1915 was a genocide! Everyone knows it, but only Turkey's strategic location next to Russia keeps the USA from blathering on about it. Which speaks just as poorly to the USA's morality, as it does to Turkey's.
Getting the car means paying tax on your winnings. Getting the goat? You can make of that what you'd like.

No, the overwhelming scientific consensus is it must be proven safe first on a case by case basis, and that GMO in of itself is not good or bad. However, it is not the science I am worried about, it is the willingness of companies to put profit before human lives.

Denaturation of proteins is, as you have said, removing the secondary/tertiary/quaternary structures. However, that doesn't mean that the pasteurization process produces the same resulting denatured proteins our body does.

Lactose is a sugar, and we simply do not benefit from diets high in sugars and carbs.

If the FSF wants to make more of an impact, perhaps they should build software in a higher level language.
> I disagree. There's a significant amount of security we gain from collectively using the CA system over self signed certificates.

You're actually losing security by trusting the CA model, though. You have no means of control or independent audit. This is the same reasoning behind free-and-open-source software being inherently more secure and trustworthy than their closed-source counterparts; "transparency is a dependency of trust" is just as applicable here as it is in any other security-sensitive situation.

This is why decentralization is absolutely essential, and the longer we go on sitting on our haunches and pretending that the current system is "good enough", the worse the problem becomes.

> If a CA is subverted my browser or OS vendor can pull the CA or the CA, if trustworthy, can revoke the certificates.

That trustworthiness is a very big if.

> In a scenario without CAs, I visit example.com and my browser vendor has no idea that I'm being MitM'd nor do I since I've never been to example.com and examined the certificate.

There are numerous ways to achieve certificate verification without relying on a centralized CA system. Even with self-signed, you can detect private key changes (this is how SSH is protected against MITM attacks; in practice, this rather-simple security measure has been very hard to circumvent). For more verification, there are plenty of ways to achieve that in a decentralized manner, be it web-of-trust (PGP-style) or a cryptographic ledger (Namecoin-style) or something else entirely. Hell, there are already systems like DNSChain that implement the latter approach; that would be infinitely better than the current system.

> But to suggest that the security benefits

What security benefits? All the purported "benefits" are entirely fictional, since they rely exclusively on arbitrary trust in arbitrary entities. That's not security, no more than me handing you a briefcase full of cash and you promising you'll hold onto it for me is "security".

The sense of security you feel with the current CA system is very much false. You're relying enirely on luck, and have absolutely zero assurance that your luck will continue to be good.

I like this analogy with roads because land like wireless spectrum is a very finite resource especially at the last mile.

Personally, I wish there was a better scheme to allocate precious wireless spectrum other than giving a 100 year license to the highest bidder in an auction. (Whether the auction is rigged or not is besides the point.)

We talk about common carrier when it comes to wireline communication but why can't we do the same for wireless?

I don't know about others but it sickens me to think that we consider it an achievement to raise a couple of billion dollars for granting exclusive license to prime low frequency spectrum to Cingular/Verizon. Wouldn't it be better if wireless carriers didn't have to fight over who has the least bad coverage? There has to be a better way...
Just to clarify, I'm not advocating criminalisation of nootropics, and I completely agree that the war on drugs is pretty stupid.

The point is about dangerous usage patterns. You are trying to argue that hard drugs are actually not that bad if only they were available with the same safety and dosage rigor applied to approved pharmaceuticals. My point is that it isn't an apt example because nobody gets euphoric or addicted when they take Tylenol. Any drug that causes some physiological disturbance in sufficient quantities is going to be more dangerous if that drug is taken by users in ever increasing quantities.

> Opiates do not have a "fundamentally different" effect if you're in pain. I think people like saying that about opiates and stimulants so as to excuse people that "need" it.

It is different. Say a patient has severe pain from metastatic breast cancer. I can give them a dose of morphine that would stop you from breathing permanently, and they will be fine. Are you saying she didn't really need it, she just likes the rush? I don't understand your point, maybe you can clarify. The rates of opioid addiction in people receiving it for pain are much lower than you would otherwise think from the way people buy oxycodone on the black market.

Personal freedom? What about the personal freedom of the kid who gets bashed by their drunk parent? Or the personal freedom of the cyclist that gets run over by a drink driver?

For the last few months I've been doing Aeropress or a pour-over in a chemex on the weekends. I'm still getting my technique down for both and I can't claim that either tastes remarkably better than my Keurig (I totally admit I dont have a great palette for coffee), but it seriously is a lot more fun than just pushing a button. I really looking forward to my weekend morning coffee now.

Recently I've started doing cold brew coffee -- starting it Friday night and then diluting it with hot water in the morning. For me it tastes noticeably better and less bitter.
Even the ethical case for veganism doesn't have much to say about GMO. The idea that hurting animals is wrong doesn't in any way entail that creating genetically engineered plants or microorganisms is wrong.
> Btw, this was Zuckerburg's response when posed this question: https://i.imgur.com/PAwf6e3.png "Some connectivity is better than no connectivity, hence the violation of NN is justified"

That is not a literal quote. Here is the actual quote from that image -

"For people who are not on the internet though, having some connectivity and some ability to share is always much better than no ability to connect and share at all. That's why programs like Internet.org are important and can co-exist with net neutrality regulations."
> In any other context people would champion this sort of strategy.

Context is important. A middle-school teacher who finds their kids aren't paying attention during a presentation might attract more interest by including a few porn slides. Imagine the virility through the school. There might be an increase in "user acquisition" using this "psychological approach".

At the end of the day, it's horseshit. Fucking horseshit.
I was in San Fransisco this past January, and I was actually stopped by an officer for crossing when the hand was blinking, even though I made it to the other side in time. I think it was a matter of the officer not having anything better to do, since it was 8 in the morning. I didn't get a ticket because I answered his questions politely, but I'm sure if I was still in high school, I would have been a smart-ass about it.

I understand the need for HTTPS when browsing Netflix, but is there really any benefit in encrypting the actual media stream?

The file is already encrypted for DRM purposes... if thry want to go beyond that, how about a system where each edge server gets a differently encoded file from the master?
Amazing, a homepage for a js front-end framework that actually has useful content with js disabled, like a web page (as perhaps, opposed to a web app) should.
I think this research is interesting and valuable, but it seems to oversimplify. If I intentionally hired a group of goofballs who loved each other's company, would I really expect outstanding results?
You should create geographic bins and sort your tickets into them. Then for each bin, you should identify the number of peaks in the distribution of ticket timestamps associated with a bin. Operating under the assumption that the distribution of timestamps is the sum of multiple distributions (a convolution) each with a well defined mean, each peak represents the mean time when -a- vehicle arrives at your designated geographic bin to assign a ticket.

Now, with all your peaks sorted out for each bin, you want to construct a graph from bin to bin where your graph is constructed where an adjacent node in the graph is added if the numerical distance between the two peaks is the smallest of all choices. You should iteratively repeat the process until all the relevant bins are connected

Then brute force the permutations of arrangements of peaks and you should get a rough approximation of the path of the person issuing tickets.

As a Bostonian I find the idea of jaywalking fines quaint.
My bad, I paraphrased the implications of the comment.
Actually, you used the personal pronoun 'you', which is not used in English to describe an activity, but rather a person. This is unambiguous.

To me, your response on this matter indicates that I'm likely to get argumentation in reply to anything I say rather than discussion or honest reflection.

This is fine, if one likes argumentation for its own sake, which it is established that you yourself do; I, however, do not, so I'm going to disengage from this conversation.

Scanning your points briefly, I would in another context be happy to go back and re-examine my representation of your position, but will not do so, as I can't take the assertion at face value, and would anyways be wasting my time as per above. I will remember it as a possibility. I do not exactly remember your thesis in the terms in which you have now restated it, but it seems likely that we are largely talking at cross-purposes with regards to the nature of valuable discussion on HN. Experts seldom fail to speak with sufficient rigor or mind correction when they do so. And 'citing sources' can be a waste of time, or a courtesy to others, depending on the context.

I would not hesitate to link to information on HN if that was the source of my knowledge. It is more important to me that I be (eventually) correct than that I maintain an appearance of correctness.
Yet the countdowns are also at intersections that have no middle place. In such cases, it's a binary decision, made for people of all ability ranges. The countdown provides no useful information to act upon and should thus be removed.

Though I agree - there should be some way to indicate "do not attempt crossing, even if you think you're so fast." Perhaps adjust the countdown and keep the hand for several seconds more than it is currently.
No other place treats it that way (and most police departments have better things to do than to target pedestrians).
Anecdotally (I'm posting this to see if I'm the only one who's noticed), there's something culturally (or legally) unique about jaywalking in California.

The ambiguity of countdown timers should have been a problem in every city/state that put them in. But I can't imagine reading this article about anywhere else because everywhere else, everybody jaywalks all the time and the laws are rarely enforced.

But relatively nobody jaywalks in CA. A few years ago I was in downtown LA very early in the morning, standing on a street corner with five or so other people who were all patiently waiting for a green light to cross a completely empty street. No cars in sight. For someone from east of the Rockies, it's actually kind of surreal.

Why is jaywalking such a big deal in CA?
car technology was 50 years less mature, but are our brains any better? There's a lot of studies showing the strong correlation between speed limits and car accident fatalities, even recently
I have found that when I fill the forms out honestly and accurately, it results in too much tax being withheld. It is certainly true that I can fudge the forms to get a more accurate withholding (and I have done that at times), but it does seem to withhold too much by default.

Why is it inherently 'madness' to have part of your HTTP stack running in kernel space? I think it's generally accepted that handling TCP in the kernel isn't madness; what's the magic distinction between dealing with TCP packets from remote machines and dealing with HTTP requests from remote machines that makes one of them an acceptable activity to carry out in kernel space, and one not?

To be clear about http.sys, it's not what you would normally consider a 'web server'. It leaves things like 'serving files' and 'authentication' and stuff up to userland application processes like IIS. But it allows multiple userland applications to be routed HTTP requests directly, without an IPC dispatch.

Not if you take the walk signal to mean "it's safe to cross right now," which is not the case if you're on the curb and there's one second left.

You also clearly haven't spent much time in L.A...many of these signs flash the walk signal for literally 2 or 3 seconds before beginning the 20 second red countdown.

The first thing that came to mind was @agl's discussion of TLS's overhead with Gmail: https://www.imperialviolet.org/2010/06/25/overclocking-ssl.h...

It's a bit hard for me to reconcile "<1% of the CPU load" (Google) with "up to 50% capacity hit" (Netflix).
I think the context here is that Netflix does not want to serve video over HTTPS but some browsers are talking about restricting EME DRM so that only HTTPS origins can use it.
Without encrypting the video contents, anyone sniffing the data stream can easily tell what you're watching, when you paused, or skipped, or re-played, etc. They may not be able to steal your money with that data, but it still exposes real, personal information.

(though... I was just thinking about this, and due to the use of variable-bitrate encoding, the varied rate of data transmission over time (even though encrypted) would give each video a fingerprint that an observer could use to determine whatever it is that you're watching, anyway, albeit with greater effort that simply inspecting the unencrypted stream)
Decision Making App: Rudder – Social Polling
I'm a vegan who's motivated by opposition to animal agriculture, so I enthusiastically support research like this (and think it's the most promising path I've heard of to a vegan human future). I went to a vegan advocacy organization event a few months ago where this topic came up, and other attendees shared my enthusiasm for this kind of research, but the diversity of views and motivations in the vegan community makes me wary of claiming that that means this is mainstream.

To answer your correlation question, probably yes -- but vegans' attitudes toward "tampering with nature" vary widely from the view that it's the worst possible thing humanity can do, on through to the view that it's the best possible thing humanity can do (e.g., David Pearce), with a broad spectrum in between. (I don't have an ideal example of the former group in mind, but I could mention Sea Shepherd's Paul Watson, who advocates deep ecology and opposes GMOs.)

I think we will see sharper divisions between environmentalist vegans (especially advocates of deep ecology) and animal rights/animal welfare vegans over time. I don't know how the population breaks down in the west today, or how many people have even had to think about it that much.

I wonder if you've looked at riot.js[r]? I ask, because I've so far steered clear of js-heavy front-end development -- and in my search so far, it seems the best among simple, plain js frameworks. I'll probably end up playing with elm, or do something with clojure-script -- but riot.js checks a lot of boxes:

* Is dogfooded for a real app by authors (muut.com
Discussion-as-a-Service)
* Is small (code size and file size)
* Is simple
* Avoids(?) being simplistic (too simple)
* Has an idea of components

Maybe not enough though... looks like js is rediscovering object-oriented MVC design slowly (a sane way to keep the html templates, the event listener/handling code and any needed css in one place).

I think polymer might be the closest alternative, but muut has a comparison that doesn't speak too well for polymer: https://muut.com/riotjs/compare.html

Refuse to talk to cops (always, not just about jaywalking).

Do not provide ID ever (unless driving, since it also happens to be your DL) and do not answer questions as to whether you have ID.

The amount of paperwork they'll need to fill out in order to arrest you (and thus allow them to search you [the claim will be that the search is for weapons for their safety, but anything they find is free for them to use/look at, incl your ID, if you even have it]) makes it not worth it for them. They'll just find a stupider victim.

Disclaimer: IANAL, but i do often end up in court with cops over a lot of things, this included, and have not yet paid any fines
Gmail servers probably do actual work. Netflix's CDN just copies bytes from disk to network, so TLS overhead is a greater percentage.

It's the amount of complexity, i.e. the number of things to go wrong.

And even then, there are efforts (GNU Hurd, for instance) to push things like TCP out of the kernel level.

Proteins are digested to no larger than tripeptides prior to absorption in the intestine. Once absorbed, these oligopeptides are hydrolyzed to single amino acids before moving into circulation. Whether you eat raw milk or milk with denatured proteins makes no difference, you only absorb small protein fragments.

You cannot keep a stationary drone in the sky for long stretches of time. Their field of view is also going to be massively smaller than a satellite. You would need a lot of them just to keep the same amount of coverage.
