We can say they don't have a responsibility once we begin holding accountable those who do have a responsibility and yet still use Google to help fulfill that responsibility. For example, I think we can agree that a teacher should have

Do you? You have agreement with part of the company and work it out with them, but does this routinely include the people who would be actively looking for your intrusion and trying to catch it? Often that is handled by automated systems

Then you get the worst of both worlds. You are in an industry where few very well tested releases are needed to meet SLA and customer expectations, but you have enough of the company looking at entirely different industries and wanting to

Database versioning and backwards compatibility has been something of an upcoming problem where I'm at as we've been getting better at CI/CD. Do you have any recommended resources for different approaches to it, or even some

Couldn't it be the opposite? Bitcoin is losing, so they say this to get people to think Bitcoin is good so they'll use it instead of much harder to analyze crypto?

These can be changed and you can be charged under other crimes which may have different statue of limitations. When the government decides they want you in prison, it doesn't particularly care how it does so. Tax evasion, drug traffi

I think you are leaving out a large scale prisoner's dilemma as well, because if your country goes from green energy but is surrounded by those going for the cheap dirty energy then you still get the environment damage anyways.

One of the most damaging acts that most people do to the environment is having children. Controlling that would greatly improve the environment. While any single person is far smaller than the scale you want enforced, you could have stand

This does not scale. Imagine if every grocery store, doctor, and gas station decided to deny someone service because of an unproven criminal charge. Given that innocent people are charged with crimes they did not commit, the morality of d

When we privatize infrastructure where do we draw the line between government and private citizen?

It is a legit concern of mine. I've been asked for phone recommendations from family as well, but they only focus on the main brands with a strong preference for Apple as the status symbol and Samsung as the slightly less pricey optio

Differences are relative, and the concept of difference is somewhat meaningless without reference to a scale. Is an ant and a pencil roughly the same size? Day to day scale, no? But larger scale than that and the importance of the differ

Proving there is an infinite number of some subset of primes, for any sort of non trivial subset of primes, seems noteworthy at first. But considering the implications of there being infinite primes, there being a finite limit seems far mor

Exactly what bitcoin is backed by is something of a mystery for economist to debate. Much of it is people speculating, but I don't see anything unreasonable with saying much of the value, at least pre-speculation, is from its use to c

>If a state actor, such as China, was motivated enough to identify, capture and coerce these miners it would be pretty easy to perform a 51% attack given that China accounts for around 65% of all bitcoin mining globally. This is because

I think it is reasonable as long as there are barriers for consumption and people can be selectively limited in their ability to interact with the broadcasts. Maybe if Twitter was brought in as a government contractor, including the inabili

Yet our current system shows we do have tolerance for dead weight, be they geniuses who happened to have bad luck in the theory they chase or be they frauds. One way to rephrase the issue in light of this is to ask if we have optimized the

Math is its own reality. Well many, depending upon which axioms you start with. Computer Science is the same, the theoretical computation stuff that is. In reality, we can only build pseudo-Turing machines with limited tapes. In the end

This is something that has fundamentally bothered me about our current society. I consider all the positions of people who do things that, when all has been said and done, do not provide value to humans. Then I consider all the positions

I have to disagree with this. While there are plenty of confident people who will mock themselves in humor, I've also known many people whose self mocking hides a very negative self image that needs serious if not professional help th

If you raise a point that shows a slice of society discriminates against men more than women you'll face criticisms that range from "what about the men" to being called an incel to being let known you are not welcome in a com

by SkyBelow 6y ago
Another reason people don't often take into account is that men have an extra incentive for earning more money as their worth as a person is judged more upon what they make than it is for a woman (women have other things they are judge

I've been at enough companies that have decided to change version control without pulling over history that I have developed a trust issue with version control. It is a great tool when used correctly, but comments are even more resist

Sounds like a set of training wheels. Helpful for those begging to learn, but extremely limiting if you don't learn to take them off once you have the basics. I can definitely see the benefit of such an application, but the risks are

Given we know how long it has been 40 years away, 20 years away, and now 5 years away, we can estimate how long it will be until it is 0 years away. Unless it goes down by a power of 2 each time.

I thought that rule was for interpreting comments to keep civil discussion. Identifying possible interpretations of what is in an article and the biases it may either imply, be sourced from, or create in others seems a worthwhile topic to

I was originally against the authors take on Myth one as well, but then I considered that my perspective may have been somewhat different from the one they were actually talking about and I sort of incorrectly translated it. Maybe they wer

Is this needed to make a claim? If I say that someone stole the Declaration of Independence, then I would only need to provide evidence it was stolen, not evidence that shows some particular person stole it. In this case, evidence of illega
