Also, you would be surprised to know that they can take your picture, the picture of your children, your car and so on when you are in a public place. In other words you could go and take a pictures of people walking down the street and piss them off but that doesn't mean it will be illegal, you'll also probably get your arse kicked.

Yup, just sock the brain with enough alcohol to knock out an elephant before its development is complete, and then you wonder how these half-naked fakirs [*] are overtaking your economy. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/6294409.stm

[*] before you mod me troll, that was what Sir Winston Churchill called a guy named Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi.

That is interesting indeed. I had been told by Indians that Gandhi was called the "nanga fakir" which they said meant "naked fakir" although the most naked he is ever depicted, unlike some ascetics, was to have his top half uncovered (basically like being shirtless, though he is usually shown wearing a type of robe). I did not know that this originated as an insult by Churchill (of all people) but it did. I guess it is similar to the New England colonists adopting the moniker "yankee" which originated as a Dutch slur lobbed at them from New Amsterdam,and the later adoption of "Yankee Doodle" as a fight song after British soldiers used it to mock those colonists in the Revolution.

It does look like it is not too late for others to get in on the act of mocking Gandhi, if even in jest.

Still, I think it is disengenuous to refer to the Indians who are "taking our jobs" as "naked fakirs." After all the reason they are able to do your job so well is partly due to the fact that in addition to the Indian appreciation for education they also have learned to appreciate certain aspects of European and American culture; you'll find that most of them are for lack of a better term very much westernized, and certainly modern. They are thoroughly Indian as they are part of the new India. Though it does often please us American IT folks to be called wizards and gurus, I am not sure how Indian IT people would feel about being called fakirs, naked or not, especially given the religious implications. I guess they can answer for themselves, unless they feel like you are trolling after all and do not deign to respond.

(I actually think that this was probably a troll after all given the username, but it was thought-provoking even if unintentionally so, and given the subject matter I felt compelled to comment anyhow).

Hu is probably just trying to find a reason to take down China Bounder's blog about his sex adventures with Chinese women. He pissed off a lot of people, some very powerful. After all, Chinese women are so innocent, and this dirty foreigner is corrupting them!

Here ya go. HTH.

"Oohh, I guess that rules out this per-- oh wait, they were convicted in Arizona, where "child molester" doesn't actually mean anything. Ok, you're hired."

Until TV news anchors show up at your door demanding to know why you're hiring a convicted sex offender, and both of you get fired because protesters are making your company lose money over your decision. Watch TV some day, fucking up everyone's lives is quality prime time material!

Arizona just undermined itself. Be ridiculous with labels, and you end up only labeling yourself.

Pfft. The label has been ridiculous from the start. Public indecency in many states is a sex offense, and you're added to the registry on the second time, whether a minor sees you or not. Alabama will register you for "obscene bumper stickers" (what about those popular truck mudflaps sporting a woman's silhouette, are they "obscene"? Miller test time! Who wants to ruin their life to see whether shitty beer is shitty or not?) Googlized version of pdfd version of an excel spreadsheet (yay!) listing registrable offenses by state.

Add to that the fact that as far as "being a sex offender" goes, raping 3 year olds is apparently just as heinous as having sex with your 17 year old girlfriend, or taking home a 24 year old who didn't seem drunk until she woke up and had no clue where she was or who you were, and the whole thing turns out to be a horrid mess, but somebody has to think of the children! No matter how ridiculous it gets, no politician will touch it, because anyone who does would be opening the floodgates for monsters to rape your little girls.

No No No.

The other "security" implementations would be like asking Unix to allow admin userspace programs to access the Linux Kernel security interfaces, manipulating operating system controls on a real-time bases.

Which is exactly what the Linux Security Modules project did

The Linux Security Modules (LSM) project provides a lightweight, general purpose framework for access control. Contemporary computing environments are increasingly hostile. Adding enhanced access control models to the kernel improves host security and can help a server survive malicious attacks. Security research has provided many types of enhanced access controls effective for different environments. The LSM framework allows access control models to be implemented as loadable kernel modules.

RedHat/Fedora use SELinux. openSuSE uses AppArmor. You could invent your own Kernel Security software.

Why buy the cow when you Get the milk for for free?[google cache of The Wall Street Journal]

The problem is stopping western farmers dumping their products on third world markets at far below cost. Destroying the local market for locally produced food, thereby driving local farmers out of business and off the land.

I realize the west isn't helping, but the countries affected could prevent the problem the same way we maintain our markets -- by taxing the bejeezus out of imports. The corrupt governments (a redundant adjective, granted) of these countries are just as much to blame for not using the potential source of income through import duties to further develop their countries. They wouldn't need local farmers if their governments invested in creating industry, but if they raised tariffs high enough, it would be profitable for their own farmers to grow food. It's not like it's an all-or-nothing proposition either; they can allow in a minimum amount of produce to meet demand, and adjust the quota year-over-year -- just like the US does. The US is not entirely to blame for providing a product [food] where there is a demand any more than, say, South American countries are to entirely to blame for doing the same with drugs. If there was no demand, there would be no drug smuggling.

The reality is that both sides are culpable -- it takes two to play, and the game stops whenever one side decides to stop playing. Blaming one party is just recockulous.

More recently, I heard about them just growing it in sheets, which is probably an easier idea. Meat without animals will be here quite soon. It'll be great. Save the rain forest, ground water, whatever morality may be involed... I mean, it solves a ton of problems, and in the case of animal poop a number of millions of tons.

A fellow I used to work with (he's since moved to other employment), was getting ready to move down here from Chicago, so being touristy, he took pictures of lots of things. He noticed a caravan of black SUVs. He made the mistake of taking pictures of them, as well as when taking pictures of a building, apparently, the security camera was in the picture. One of the SUVs promptly drove up onto the curb where he was. He was detained and questioned several times over the span of a few hours..

I would have to assume that the NSA has a way of cracking it themselves, as historically the NSA does not approve any encryption method unless they can crack it themselves. Similarly, "The design and strength of all key lengths of the AES algorithm (i.e., 128, 192 and 256) are sufficient to protect classified information up to the SECRET level. TOP SECRET information will require use of either the 192 or 256 key lengths. The implementation of AES in products intended to protect national security systems and/or information must be reviewed and certified by NSA prior to their acquisition and use." (a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Encryp tion_Standard">Wikipedia) confirms that it is the most secure currently used encryption standard, but it can still be cracked by the NSA and their crypto experts and multiple super computers. They would not encourage something to be a worldwide standard if they could not crack it themselves, but they also wouldn't approve the encryption for government documents unless they felt that few governments/people other than themselves could crack it. Just because a crack has not been published does not mean the NSA doesn't have a way of breaking the encryption.

from this, "Aging of lithium-ion is an issue that is often ignored. A lithium-ion battery in use typically lasts between 2-3 years. The capacity loss manifests itself in increased internal resistance caused by oxidation. Eventually, the cell resistance reaches a point where the pack can no longer deliver the stored energy although the battery may still have ample charge."

Though I don't particularly care what my console of choice is called, as long as it serves its purpose (plays good games), I did notice some confusion over this name. I was at work, and passed by a TV that has 24/7 news on it, and the reporter (obviously reading from a teleprompter) said that Nintendo had recently unveiled it's W-2 console. I was wondering why she was talking about tax forms, but quickly caught on that it was the Wii. I don't think it's a bad name, just that it might take some getting used to for some people.

The fact that there are any Muslims -- no matter how statistically insignificant their numbers -- who consider these acts to be religious acts is in and of itself shocking. And therefore we as Muslims have to ask the question, 'How is it that our religious leadership has failed to reach these people with the true message of Islam?'' Because the acts of these criminals have indicted an entire religion in the hearts and minds of millions. Ultimately, this is a result of the bankruptcy of these type of people who claim to be adherents to the Islamic religion. These people are so bankrupt that all they have to offer is destruction.

It sounds noble and great but entirely misses the point. It's easy to condemn the bombers compared to the harder task of formally and persistently issuing fatwas against those who preach that hate and categorize themselves as true muslims. Attacking the preachers who conceive and spread the salafist memes used to justify these attacks is the heart of the Muslim duty to fight these extremists and he passes on a few opportunities to do it.

Second link:

Just a few days ago, the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, the highest and most respected Islamic authority in the world, who resides in Egypt, also made this clear. The Grand Imam said that the Koran specifically forbids the kinds of things the Taliban and al-Qaida are guilty of. He said the jihad Usama bin Laden has called for against America is invalid and not binding on Muslims. He said that "Islam rejects all of these acts." He called terrorism un-Islamic. In fact, he says, "Killing innocent civilians is a horrific, hideous act that no religion can approve."

The condemnation is again of the acts, not the underlying theology, a theology that is making great strides in the muslim world carried far and wide via petrodollar donations to build mosques and fund imams.

Third link:
This one is better but it's been three years since that conference discussed in the story and there seems little evidence that the imams have even made much of a dent in impressing on muslims the difference between commendable jihad and sinful irhab. You'd think all those moderate muslims might persuade Sheikh Hamad of Qatar, who funds and protects Al Jazeera to hold some religious instruction training for the news staff at Al Jazeera to impress upon them that they are promoting irhab on a regular basis. No go, apparently. Converting the commanding heights of muslim communication to a channel that properly uses irhab and jihad apparently not important enough to get done, maybe next year.

Fourth Link:
Now it's useful to condemn OBL

In the light of this evidence, the Taliban had no justification for continuing to protect bin Laden. Why protect him? Is he a saint or a prophet? He is a man who himself has admitted arranging car-bomb attacks on U.S. embassies. He is no saint."

But it misses the point that there was an infrastructure of teaching that produced OBL and the actions that he did. That, however, did not come in for the same condemnation. This is like pulling dandelion stems out but leaving the roots in. You know that you're not really attacking the problem, just today's symptom.

Fifth Link:
You're quoting a Hezbollah imam as part of the solution? You've got to be joking. Hezbollah is part of the problem as their pimping for Syria after the Hariri assassination amply demonstrates. When Hezbollah and Al Queda fri

The leading moral authority for Sunnis is the rector or Grand Imam of the al-Azhar Seminary/ University in Cairo, Egypt. Al-Azhar is perhaps the world's oldest continuous university and has been since the time of Saladin a major center of Sunni religious authority. The current incumbent is Shaikh Muhammad Sayyid Tantawi. So what about Tantawi and Bin Laden?

Grand Imam of Al-Azhar seminary, Shaikh Muhammad Sayyid Tantawi, condemns Osamah Bin Laden. Here's another cached link from Washington Post reporting on the same condemnation.

What about Pakistan? Pakistani Cleric Tahir ul Qadri condemns Bin Laden.

Sheikh Yusuf Qaradawi is a TV preacher, and pretty popular with a wide Arabic audience on Al-Jazeera. He absolutely despises Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda. Al-Qaradawi has repeatedly condemned Al-Qaeda. He even gave a fatwa that it was a duty of Muslims to fight alongside the US in Afghanistan against al-Qaeda! Yusuf Qaradawi Condemns Al Qaeda.

Hamza Yusuf is a sheikh, what about the Shi'ites? Most fatwas of that sort are in arabic, but here's one reported: Ayatollah Muhammad Husain Fadlallah of Lebanon condemns Osama Bin Laden

Don't forget the West!> There are 250,000 Muslims in Spain: Spanish Muslim Clerical authorities Issue Fatwa against Osamah Bin Laden. Russia is 15% Muslim, with 20 Million Muslims. High Mufti of Russian Muslims calls for Extradition of Bin Laden. And they're not saying that to please Putin or anything.

If you're looking for someone to make a fatwa that says so-and-so is in Hell right now, you're not going to find that, as Muslims aren't allowed to judge people, only God can. They can say that murder and suicide are both hell-worthy sins, and they all said that. This isn't like Catholicism where you can just excommunicate people either. You can label Bin Laden a sinner (and believe me, there's quite a lot of people who did), but in Islam you can't say whether he's an atheist or not. That's just semantics, everyone knows Bin Laden is a wrongdoer, and have said so.

So this isn't the newest sentiment in the world. Just further proof that the world doesn't understand video and computer games.

The reason slavery is unacceptable today is because the vast majority of the world believes that it is wrong.

The reason slavery is unacceptable today is because of geeks producing advances in technology.

Slavery started up when we stopped hunting and gathering and started staying in one place and needed masses of manpower to do agricultural work.

Then the techies of the past, the Eli Whitneys and the Cyrus McCormicks, improved agricultural efficiency (in the US, 84% of the population in 1810 was involved in agricultural work. Today only 1.9% is. The Industrial Revolution made manufacturing a lot more relatively valuable than agriculture. Combine those two factors. Now you have a big drop in demand for unskilled muscle power, and keeping a bunch of slaves around to do manual labor just doesn't seem to be all that good of an idea.

The morality of societies adapt wonderfully to the times. For example, polygamy makes a *lot* of sense in an environment where you have lots of hand-to-hand wars in which lots of men are killed. You don't need lots of men to retain your population's reproduction rate (which is a big chunk of why men traditionally composed armies) -- the number of women available is the bottleneck. Now you have a bunch of war widows. If you marry then off to some of the surviving men, you don't lose your next generation of children (and the society that chooses to do that is asking for trouble in one generation, when the guys in the next city-state are more numerous and looking for land).

The real knights in shining armour, the ones going out and making everyone wealthier and happier, are the ones pushing technology ahead. It's easy to forget that. Your graph theory paper fights slavery! :-)

"It is a very high-powered, focused radar beam that could be used to find an enemy object out in space and, having found it, zero in on it," Coyle said."

China already outsources some of its low end manufacturing to Vietnam citing lower labor costs.

I saw an interesting documentary about the marine excavation of an old Chinese junk (circa 1700s) and that the chinaware on it was made in Viet Nam... for lower labor costs.

Call me jaded, but this is hardly surprising. It's quite amazing yes, but not surprising. Even small fragments of rat brain will have thousands and thousands of neurons and neuronal connections. It then becomes a matter of interfacing this "brain" with an appropriate sensory/control mechanism to respond to arbitrary stimuli (plane flying) after a certain amount of training. We have these beasties for decades and we call them "neural networks". If a relatively miniscule bunch of simulated neurons can drive a car (ALVINN from Google's cache, then a bunch of real neurons orders of magnitude larger can definitely fly a plane.

(I'd like to put the Baron Munchausen reference in here too:

Horatio Jackson: Ah, the officer who risked his life by singlehandedly destroying *six* enemy cannon and rescuing ten of our men help captive by The Turk.

Heroic Officer: Yes, sir.

Horatio Jackson: The officer about whom we've heard so much.

Heroic Officer: I suppose so, sir.

Horatio Jackson: Always taking risks far beyond the call of duty.

Heroic Officer: I only did my best, sir.

Horatio Jackson: Have him executed at once. This sort of behavior is demoralizing for the ordinary soldiers and citizens who are trying to lead normal, simple, unexceptional lives. I think things are difficult enough without these emotional people rocking the boat.)
