Personally, I find Samsung has a "it boots? Fine then ship," mentality to pretty much all things. Their buggy phones, buggy SSD's, buggy TV's, etc. I wouldn't recommend them, even though they do well on SSD speed tests (which are often gamed by on-board ram caching).
In this sort of writing, such rhetorical techniques should be used sparingly, especially if you want to be taken seriously. Policy editorials need to stick to evidence, clear writing and solutions, not go off the rails with the polemics.

That's nice, but I think will be ineffectual in practice. As soon as you start cooking with any unsaturated fats, a portion will isomerize to trans fats. I doubt major food manufacturers are using only trans-fat sources in today's climate of health conscious (or hypervigilant) practices.
what if going straight will kill more people than swerving? You are driving in a turn, a tyre blows - a system which "gives up" and just applies the brakes as hard as it can allows the car to continue forward - maybe in a path of a school bus, maybe into a group of bystanders, maybe off a cliff. But if you allow it to turn,even a little - how do you know you are not injuring more people?
Linear optimization is a subject that is often neglected in computer science curriculums, even at the graduate level. It is common for computer science students to learn algorithms such as hill climbing or even stochastic local search algorithms such as simulated annealing, but in fact there are many applications for which linear optimization methods can solve the same problems better in a small fraction of the time. If you are a computer scientist or a software engineer with an interest in mathematical optimization, linear and integer programming are must-have tools to round out your knowledge base.

A great way to get started is to play around with the solver feature in Excel. Many software engineers may be loath to use this tool, but Excel actually provides a great GUI with which to do simple linear and integer programming problems.
Depends on what the substitute foods are.

If people start eating 100 percent less trans fat but 300% more sugar to compensate, then even though sugar has redeeming qualities, it will be a bad thing, right?
By these standards, how is alcohol still legal?

Alcohol-Related Deaths:
Nearly 88,000 people (approximately 62,000 men and 26,000 women) die from alcohol-related causes annually, making it the third leading preventable cause of death in the United States.

EDIT:
I'm not advocating that alcohol be illegal. I couldn't care less to be honest.

I guess my comment was more of a question of how can you ban substance "A" because "Its bad for you"; but not ban substance "B" which kills 90k people in the U.S. annually? It just seems cherry picked is all. If the gov't is going to ban bad things, how does substance "B" get a pass?
Pathfinding: A* to Jump Point Search and Goal Bound by Steve Rabin
> Looks pretty good to me.

Ok, let's put it to a simple test :).

# pkcheck --action-id org.freedesktop.udisks2.ata-standby
pkcheck: Subject not specified

<What the hell is a subject?>
# man pkcheck
/subject

<???>

It means to say that you have to specify a PID for which to check that. But the word "subject" doesn't even appear in the pkcheck manpage.

The synopsis also lists three possible forms for --process. However, only one of them is valid and (the developers currently think) presents no race conditions. There's a note warning that the other two are buggy, but they're still accepted for compatibility reasons, because those two (buggy) methods have been standard for years.

> I think that's the nature of the problem domain. polkit seems to be for enforcing arbitrary rules, when the built-in rules of something like sudo can't cope. Therefore: arbitrary code snippets as rules, therefore, no introspection.

I don't think it's the nature of the problem domain. The "arbitrary rules" can have a user- or group-base restriction. It's an architectural limitation that the system cannot go through the list of all currently enforceable rules and return those that match a particular user.

> However, [...] Gives a list of actions. Use pkcheck to probe for access.

The problem is that pkcheck verifies whether or not a certain process can execute a function. You can sort of hack it to do that, but it's not always effective.

By the way, the reason I need to be able to do it is the following gem:

> There is no guarantee that a function registered with addRule() or addAdminRule() is ever called - for example an early rules file could register a function that always return a value, hence ensuring that functions added later are never called.

This is extremely unpleasant, because you can (I have) run into problems of the following sort:

* I insert a rule with a particular priority that gets registered and runs. Ok, no problem.

* Later on, <some buggy software> inserts another rule which returns a value, thus terminating the rule chain before my rule gets to run.

Now all I find is that my own rule is not enforced, but I can't tell why that happens. There's no trivial way to trace the rule chain.

It also doesn't help that errors in rule files seem to go unreported. If you type "heel" instead of "wheel" for a group name, the whole thing will happily carry on, or at least I haven't yet figured out how to look for those errors.
you forgot that the government has final say, in everything.
Unless it has drastically changed, I was able to boot it up and play for fun right off the bat. There were no slowdowns in any matches. While some abilities were off limit to me, these were off limit to the people I was paired with as well. The only issue I've ever noticed is that heroes aren't perfectly balanced and as such it may be possible for someone to buy access to a stronger one that the rest have, but that has not ever been a noticeable problem.

That it takes 1000 hours to unlock X does not count against it when the game is quite fun without X and where X has minimal impact on the game even when someone else has X but I do not.

Think of single player RPGs where unlocking the ultimate weapons/secret characters take dozens of hours of grinding outside of the main gameplay. That does not make the RPG a grindfest. Compare this to an RPG where 2 hours have to be spent grinding for every 45 minutes of progress through the main game. That is a grindfest.
Although trans fats are edible, consumption of trans fats has shown to increase the risk of coronary heart diseasein part by raising levels of the lipoprotein LDL (so-called "bad cholesterol"), lowering levels of the lipoprotein HDL ("good cholesterol"), increasing triglycerides in the bloodstream and promoting systemic inflammation.

> The U.S. market size for palm oil is 2.6 billion pounds (1.2 billion kilograms) annually, he said. He expects that to increase by half a billion pounds a year once trans fats are eliminated.

Only because up until recently getting in the HD game was prohibitively expensive due to the engineering and capital requirements for designing spinning disks. Now anyone can buy some flash media, a pre-cooked controller firmware, combine the two and sell at competitive rates. There are something like five or six competitive SSD makers right now and many more bottom feeders. There are two competitive spinning disk makers and its been that way for decades, ignoring the occasional small third-party player like Hitachi.

Boy that is one of the most inaccurate definition of capitalism I have ever heard. By your definition there would not be any quality product left in US or in any free market. As others state, this is human behavior. Most people does not care about the quality of the trivial items, so they prefer cheap but functioning goods. For niche consumers, prices will be high and production will be less. There are however things block actual capitalism to function well, such as protectionist policies that prevents you importing superb Japanese staples and pens cheaply.
H1-B visa holders (like myself) can and do switch employers. Granted, you need to find an employer willing to take sponsorship of your visa, but this poses significantly less paperwork and expense for the new employer than the original sponsorship does. The entire process can be arranged between the visa holder and the new employer, which means the existing employer doesn't need to be notified in advance [1] and can't interfere.

I can't speak to other locales, but in the Bay Area I've found no shortage of employers willing to take sponsorship of an H1-B visa holder. Not all such companies are willing or able to then sponsor a green card if the employee wishes to stay in the US permanently, but many of the larger companies will also do this.

It can get a little ropey towards the end of the H1-B period - some companies will not hire people who are down to only one or two years on their visa. So, if you want to stay then after the first few years in the country, you'll need to start thinking about finding a place that will sponsor your green card.

[1] This does, unfortunately, mean that it's not always possible to give as much notice as one would like. Nonetheless, the standard courteous notice period in the US seems to be about 2 weeks - much less than the 4-6 weeks common overseas - and most new employers are okay with that.
Huh, so apparently processed foods will be harder to make.

The kickstarter may very well be Sony's attempt at gauging interest in the game before outright funding it.

It's easy for someone to answer a poll asking if they'd like a game. It's an entirely different story to put up your own hard-earned dollars to fund it's development.
I don't think that was a rhetorical device; at least - I didn't recognize it as such. Though it must be...

The titles and the career track matter because that's how you get to have real impact and that's how your pay goes up. If you don't want to be thrown a spec and told to just implement it we need more developers who have better job titles and who can play the political game well.

If you're a dev you're more likely to have to bow to pressure from marketing or other departments and won't have any real impact.

I feel sorry for what the various special interests groups are increasingly doing to girls growing up, so many conflicting ideas pushing and pulling them in contradictory directions.

Boys have it so much easier in this respect - yes, the downside for them is they are often the victim of trumped up "rape" charges, but at least they don't have to contend with the mental health aspects of being simultaneously told that they are both all powerful (you go girl, you can do anything) and a perpetual victim (misogyny everywhere, all the time, etc).

It's funny because I was just talking to my SO about this on the way home from a weekend at the beach. For us, it always feels longer on the way back. Heading to the beach (or any vacation) is all about getting excited about the trip and looking forward to having fun. It makes the trip feel shorter to me.

On the way home we're tired and worn out from travel and running around doing things. It's just a slog with boring old daily life at the other end. That lack of anticipation translates into a more negative attitude about the travel which in turn makes it feel longer.

Don't get me started. people seem to always look at me strangely when I tell them I don't drink. People like it and it is important to them so anything said against alcohol is RADICAL. People love being emotionally numbed and I guess people have a right to depress their emotions with drinking or whatever legal/prescribed drugs they want. There is very little said in terms of the emotional/relationship cost of their use.

Except without TRIM you'll fill all your blocks and kill performance of your fancy $1500 Apple when the SSD is performing a dozen operations to create a space to perform writes instead of one operation on a properly TRIM'd drive.

Apple didn't do this because of "windows users whining" but because they knew they didn't want an angry mob of customers wondering why their drive is 10x slower than it was on day one.

Arguably, idle GC was "good enough," for some use cases but probably not for drives that aren't sitting idle all the time and on many hours a day. Even then, Apple probably didn't want to tell its customers "let it sit out overnight" to regain performance when supporting plain-jane TRIM was a trivial addition.

On-board GC + OS-driven TRIM are considered the optimal solution for SSD's.

Indeed - this is a pretty basic mistake. Also, note that the government recently lifted the blanket ban on spouses of H1-B's holding employment in the USA (which was for me and many others a factor in choosing an L1 intracompany transfer visa rather than a more portable H1-B when I moved here). The H1-B can also lead to a green card too (given time), so workers on it are by no means locked in.

Too widely used with too specific qualities that aren't closely enough replaceable. There are replacements for transfat that don't dramatically alter the taste or texture, but you can't drink a soda and get drunk.

Way to focus on that and not the much more real problem with people's diets, eating way too much. Yes, you need sodium in your diet to live, you do not need 3400 mg of it a day (twice recommended level).

Can you show that Trans-Fats would be killing people if they stuck to properly portioned meals?

Removing Trans-Fats is just going to be replaced with other fats, and probably some sugar for 'taste' that people will continue to eat far too much of. I expect the effect of removing Trans-Fats to be negligible to none because of that.

So, if the article was titled "Chromium downloads and activates closed-source eavesdropping software on all its devices, bypassing any OS alerts", would that be too wordy? It's meant to be a little tongue-in-cheek, admittedly, but it seems to me that's exactly what they did.

Isn't Chromium behind the enterprise chromebox/chromebook stuff too? And does this mean that Chrome itself may, or has already, install eavesdropping software and activate it without my knowledge?

Edit: I see from a sibling comment that OS X has this eavesdropping software installed, so that leads me to believe that everyone running chromium devices will have this activated, and that it's going to be part of Chrome soon, if it isn't already.

I know it's hyperbole to call it "eavesdropping software", but I also know how many people here were unsettled by "OK Google" and "Alexa!" (Amazon Echo), and I really do want to understand how folks here feel about the intrusion.
I agree.

It's interesting to note that Wikipedia does this for other pages that were "based on real facts" or were hoaxes. The one that comes to mind right away is Blair Witch.
