Globalization for Me and Not for Thee, S36E571 This happens fairly often on German Netflix. When the program's language is neither German nor English, often there are no English subtitles available. International…
The definition of free speech is not at all limited to the absence of legal constrictions. Russell addresses this quite directly in "Free Thought…": »When we speak of anything as “free,” our meaning is not definite…
This post is predicated on the deeply flawed notion that the university's purpose and value is vocational training.
It is worthwhile to consider Barlow's legacy--particularly this utopian rhetoric about cyberspace--as examined by Adam Curtis in his 2016 film Hypernormalisation (starting at 40m 35s):-…

It's just a jape, not to be taken seriously, made in the great comic tradition of FizzBuzz Enterprise Edition: https://github.com/EnterpriseQualityCoding/FizzBuzzEnterpris...
Have to take issue with this reduction by the article's author: > Don’t get IT people who specialize in running Internet services to run your Internet services. Have software coders run them instead. The point is that…
This seems more limited in scope than the article implies, as it will only use existing fiber. From the announcement: "San Francisco—where we’ll bring service to some apartments, condos, and affordable housing…
Sounds like you played with starvation and lost. Ketosis does not require or imply a severe caloric deficit. It requires a very low carbohydrate intake, but you can eat a maintenance level of calories and be in ketosis.…
Relentless self-promotion? Oh, community college.
It most certainly is a generalized circumstance that Dutch cyclists don't wear helmets. A 1998 study (1) found that 0.1% of them wore a helmet. Furthermore, search for "Amsterdam cyclist" images (2) and you'll find…
Have you any references you can share for further info / to back this up?
Good question. It probably is not relevant. I presume it's predicated on the notion that olds are generally less tech savvy (and therefore less capable of fairly & reasonably adjudicating technology cases.) Sarah Jeong…
The first half is demonstrably false; the second half--Japan excels at perfecting imported ideas--seems more accurate to me. What's your take?
Respectfully, you seem a bit unhinged over this. How, exactly, are you harmed by having to share the road safely with non-motor vehicles? Your stated concern over protection applies equally to motorcyclists, yet you…
Never underestimate the left's propensity to defeat themselves from the inside out, to choose a personal sense of moral and/or ideological superiority over coalition building and meaningful progress. Especially in the…
Marriage equality is law in California. So yes, we should be tolerant of those that opposed it and lost. That battle is over here. And there's absolutely no indication that Eich evidenced anti-gay bias at Mozilla, in…
"We have been laying the groundwork to remedy this for quite some time...but it is impossible to predict when any particular mile post will be reached." Impossible to give a date with both high precision & accuracy,…
If there were ever a title worthy of being enjoyed without compensating its creators for their labors, it's "12 Years a Slave", right? The cognitive dissonance, it burns.
I'd take it a step further and say that all on-duty officers should have to wear cameras that stream continuously into a third party repository. The BART police are mandated to wear cameras in the wake of the killing of…
There is often a countdown timer as well, and the article implies that was so in this case. Since the timer has to be set to accommodate the slowest pedestrians, the majority of walkers will in fact be able to safely…
The ban list changes are pretty clearly ideologically driven, not arbitrary.
From TFA: "he suspects badBIOS is only the initial module of a multi-staged payload"
