They seem to be focused on stopping it 100% instead of practicing harm reduction. I don't think it makes any sense at all except from a bureaucratic, elementary school, Zero Tolerance kind of perspective. Is there are another reason wh

Or, you realize that it was unconstitutional but that the government doesn't care anymore. And so you do the thing patriots do and sacrifice your life to make the information known. Snowden is a patriot and an American hero. The traito

Guilty. Treating passwords like door codes is an unwise and inappropriate policy. Ideally every user should have a unique passcode/account that is not shared.

Plan was to organize it, then carefully and thoughtfully balance out the load so that it didn't put undue burden on their servers. The entire plan was orchestrated in this way so that it wouldn't cause problems.

How is it too much work to tar up that shit, put it on a big ass drive or two, and ship it to them? I can't imagine it's that hard.

Mturk's turnaround for this stuff can't be fast enough to work would be my guess. I know jobs I put up there for transcription, despite a generous bonus, were always delayed for at the very least hours.

It's set into the ground and surrounded by concrete poured around it. Seems like that might not do so good. If I wanted to cheaply find out what was in it I would drill a small hole and use a $20 endoscope. With a Home Depot drill rent

I believe the idea underlying what he said is that everything is political. If I am wrong I apologize. It's an extension of the 1960s revolution of "the personal is political." To expound: everything is political in the sense

It's a bit like Second Life but for Normies, no? I can't help but think that this is not going to be very popular -- the one off ten thousand dollar digital clothing. Though perhaps there's a large opportunity for programs th

seriously? I assumed that it simply cooled more quickly because of high surface area to mass ratio; not that it actually was 400F but I couldn't feel it. It doesn't make intuitive sense to me but I do understand the explanation.

would you be willing to port my 796,113 line program for two hours of pay at $45.00/ hour? Because if so it would be a bargain to hire you. Last time I tried to plan the conversion by looking over the codebase it took me two days of

How are computer scientists and software engineers at Google okay with this? This type of change, on top of the very sketchy AMP stuff, seriously makes me question the ethics of those who work at Google. This seems like an obvious "no,
