It seems pretty clear that the police were never made aware of the gunshots. I doubt it is legal to shoot your neighbor's house anywhere in this country.
RANK.ONL – FOR SALE :)
Doesn't the noise make it more likely to cause a grudge between neighbors? If it was quiet enough to go undetected then the neighbor would never know or care about the UAVs presence.

I have been buzzed by a curious neighbor before and it was unsettling and extremely rude (it also spooked our livestock and could have cost my parents a lot of money)

Don't assume the people around you are happy to have UAVs flying near or above them or their property, regardless of whether the UAV is being used for stalking/surveillance. For one thing, they can't know for sure what it's being used for, and even if they're confident it isn't conducting surveillance it is generally seen as rude at best to invade somebody's privacy.
I'm not at all comfortable with drones flying outside the windows of my apartment. I don't know if they carry cameras or not and I value being able to make my Saturdays no-pants day. And the sound is really annoying.
For what it's worth, we kept pet rats for more than ten years, and I have seen the brightest of them perform mental feats I'm not expecting anyone to believe.
Spatial modelling is clearly a rat speciality. One female, the smartest rat I ever saw, wanted to keep a large piece of bread for herself. The door into the cage had other rats loitering, so she went on a huge detour to the back of the cage, obviously with a theory that there might be a door in the corresponding position there. There wasn't, so she went back, picked up the bread where she had stored it, just of sight of the others, and forced her way through the main door. Watching it, we could have no doubt whatsoever this was a thought out, reasoned plan. The route to the back of the cage was long, complex, not obvious, and never before explored.
On another occasion, she lied to us for quite a while, and was only caught out one night when I happened to see her at work. The food bowl was down to the least favourite bits, and she was systematically cleaning it out, burying the junkfood under floor litter. The moment the bowl was empty, she started banging and rustling to get our attention, look, the bowl is empty, I'm starving. I realised she'd had me fooled for several weeks where I hadn't seen any refused leftovers, and had mistakenly believed the battle of stubborn wills to be over.

I'm curious how this policy will affect ccTLDs where the registry already has a policy of not publishing whois information.

For example, individual owners of Canadian .ca domains can have their contact info hidden, whereas corporations can't. Similar policies are in effect in a number of other countries, as well as .eu.

Will these countries need to change their policies so that individuals who have ads on their blogs will have their contact info exposed? Will they have to change the way they respond to requests for disclosure?

Or does the ICANN policy only apply to gTLDs?
Was this in engineering, or maps data curation, or ads customer support, or ?

You seem to be talking about registered businesses, while ICANN is targeting all commercial activity, which is much wider.

Why should I be required to publish my home address just because I run ads on my website? If I sell ebooks and someone wants to dispute their purchase they're free to do a chargeback on their card if I run off with their money.

Whatever stupid requirements ICANN introduces, the real scammers will easily bypass them while legitimate sellers will be robbed of their privacy.

They also mention (indirectly) that the nuggets themselves are pretty much free. So the cost to McDonalds is the same (largely) for 10 and 20 pieces: labour, energy, rent etc.

I don't think even McDonald's have such good quality control in place that if, say 10 nuggets costs 50 cents, and 20 a dollar, other factors than if people buy 10 or 20 totally dominates the profit.
There is a contradiction, you just chose not to see it. Homo economicus assumes that the utility of the person is reflected in price optimization. If you define utility in a circular way, based on the behavior of real humans, then it will become completely meaningless concept.

When I'm flying in public, I approach people who wander in to what I think of as a "zone" and explain what's going on. With absolutely zero exceptions across several hundred people, the reaction has been positive. Nearly everyone has a load of questions to ask me about aerial photography and drones in general; one woman in her 60s spent half an hour sitting next to me just amazed at the technology, often just watching me fly for minutes at a time, and telling me about her grandson in the Air Force.

In over two thousand hours of flying, I've had precisely one negative experience: a contract security guard at Wind River Systems in Alameda came up to me and threatened to have me arrested on the basis that I was trespassing on Wind River property, even though the specific space is Alameda public shoreline and I had done research on this beforehand. He got in my face and shouted expletives at me, no matter how much I attempted to defuse the situation. To be honest, based on comments like yours (and many more before it), I expected when I got in to this hobby to have many more experiences like it. That hasn't happened.

I've found that doing your research, not being stupid, and being open and willing to talk to people instead of confrontational and falling back on the rules ("I'm permitted to be here" instead of "hey, is it okay with you that I'm flying nearby?") has brought about a positive interaction without fail. Countless people have asked to see my work: once while flying at Berkeley Marina, an impromptu show developed from a few sailors asking to see their vessel from above.

Your assertion about people suffers from confirmation bias. You feel that way, so you think everyone feels that way. In my extensive experience operating unmanned vehicles, I regret to inform you that you are in the tiniest of minorities. I work very hard to maintain a good positive image for the hobby, which is why I'm never rude to someone. You have to return that courtesy and open a line of dialogue with me if I'm making you uncomfortable, because no matter how hard I work, I will occasionally make mistakes.

The typical expectation of privacy by most folks is completely flawed, by the way, including by your comment, but I've learned that there's no path toward arriving at any sort of agreement on that point.

Just as you have certain things you do not want me to assume (though you're assuming I assume them), I have a few to return to you: simply because there are people with more money than common sense who buy drones and harass people and disrupt safety with them, don't assume anyone you see operating a drone is one of them. Most pilots I know are very open and more than happy to talk to you -- trust me, someone showing interest and talking to you is sometimes the best part of any hobby because it's a chance to meet new people.
It sounds like you're suggesting "felony operation of a weapon" isn't as bad as having a mental illness.
Hmm. I'm not a huge fan of writing regular makefiles. And the problem they solve seems much simpler than what Makeflow is looking to solve.
Unbelievable. I had watched the glitch itself too many times to count. But seeing it explained makes it even more impressive.

I would love to hear the story of who figured out how to do this and how much trial/error it took.

I'd also love to see a similar explanation of the mario pong/snake glitch. It seems it goes even further and is able to actually input large amounts of arbitrary code. http://www.polygon.com/2014/1/14/5309662/bizarre-super-mario...
I see that to use Brighton you need to import a bryton.js file and call "bryton()" on the onload event of the <body> element, and this rings my bell: isn't this a downside compared to normal javascript code?

Non-trivial web pages will take a bit to download fully and load, and sometimes you need your javascript code to act as quickly as it can (that's why very often the js <script> tags are all over the place in the HTML code, not just at the beginning and activated by the onload event).

The person in the article did mention arguing on site was a bad idea. I think he was right to stand up for his property rights through email later when he was in his house and significantly more safe in comparison. History has taught us that appeasing an aggressor is generally a bad idea for the long term.
It's rather difficult to avoid posting a Pulp Fiction quote on this thread.

I think the most interesting global evil megacorp franchise country might be Japan. On one hand, the Americana brand is very strong, on the other hand there's no way US sizes would work in Japan.

In the end (if things haven't changed in ~13 years) McDonald's/Burger King end up being almost as raw a deal in Japan as in Norway. Of course in Japan, you get much better service. That's just the way Japan works.

Can you really get a beer with your burger in Amsterdam?
Probably not as awful as it sounds on the surface, with an emulator you can sit and stare at the current state of the machine quite handily. It would be essentially impossible to work this sort of thing out without the aid of tools.
I don't know the specific of this proposal, but generally ICANN policies only apply in very limited ways to ccTLDs. That makes them an incredible headache for registrars as they all of their own special rules and regulations and many don't even use EPP.
Anyone legitimately targeted by the intelligence community should be intelligent enough not to try to beat them in a fire fight.

If this effect was large, wouldn't we have spotted it by now?

Doctors prescribe antibiotics for nearly anything nowadays. Along the antibiotic, you will get some sort of probiotic (selected strains of bacteria), not to mention all the yogurt and similar products we're eating. Millions of people around the world do it every year. At least some will correctly follow instructions, finish the round of antibiotic, and take the supplement for a while longer.

Essentially, we blast and replace bacteria in our guts all the time in a massive natural experiment. Yet I haven't seen any life-changing results.

It is cult-like and I didn't like aspects of it and felt slightly misled, but I don't believe it is destructive, and a lot of that was my own fault for not reading the website carefully. I am still interested in it and I want to go back and succeed.

Ubuntu 15.10 (Wily Werewolf) to use Python 3.5
I think think this article and the discussion demonstrates more about cognitive bias than anything else. The assumption that an individual is purchasing 20 pieces is probably a leap in the wrong direction. I would assume that McDonalds are direct marketing this price point to families, who they know are buying a range of other items on top of a shared serving of chicken. It's like a cheeky wink to them that they get a bonus for the bulk custom, that they know no individual could eat, just like a fish and chip shop will throw in more calamari than ordered for a large order. The reward probably doesn't cost them much but it keeps these group orders coming back.

First rule of business: TAKE THEIR MONEY!

(Or, the inverse of: SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!).

People want to give you money for practically nothing? Good. Take the money. People want to pay more (or the same) for less? Good. Take the money.

You can in Germany but the decision to offer it or not is left to the individual restaurants and I never noticed them advertising it or even listing the price but I may just have missed it or been in a restaurant not offering beer every time Pulp Fiction crossed my thought while being there. So I guess you could probably get one in Amsterdam even if not in all restaurants.
I read that email, here's an excerpt:

>"Commercial activity" casts a wide net, which means a vast number of domain holders will be affected. Your privacy provider could be forced to publish your contact data in WHOIS or give it out to anyone who complains about your website, without due process. Why should a small business owner have to publicize her home address just to have a website?

>We think your privacy should be protected, regardless of whether your website is personal or commercial, and your confidential info should not be revealed without due process.

I can't say that it "glosses over what counts as a business" or the requirement to disclose customer identities.

Sure, their bottom line is at stake, but it didn't feel to me that that's all this is about.

You will after a bit run into issues using Musl with a wrapper script, in my experience, and you are better off using a Musl based distro. You can run one in a chroot, I used to use Sabotage like that quite a bit, or if you use Docker you can just use "FROM alpine" and everything will be nice and statically linked, or you can do an install in a VM.

I do like how this project makes sure to point out that the DOM interface is intended for consumption by any language and on any platform -- maybe one day we'll have browsers that come with several languages' runtimes baked in, or perhaps that can leverage the runtimes for languages already installed on the local machine.
