> Your whole post flies in the face of the fact that no criminal action was taken
I appreciate your understanding of tort law. No charges were filed. There's a distinction to be made between that and no criminal action. The District Attorney (ostensibly his office) has discretion and will often not try cases where theres an element of uncertainty. Everyone wants to get re-elected. In another jurisdiction, the event would have been sufficient for a criminal charge. My assertion is that this is part of a future standard of behavior, not a laughable outlying event. It's my guess based on trends. Which is worth nothing, other than as a base for discussion.
> Putting people in prison because they are assholes hiding behind the anonymity of the internet is bullshit.
Those are some strong words. That sentiment is also backward. The statements were knowingly made and potentially harmful. If a person can be prosecuted for sitting on a bench alongside another person (reddit or any open forum) then telling that person (who may be of limited capacity - minor, mentally handicapped or ignorant) to do something dangerous, this is simply an extension of existing societal controls. The bar for "fair" is set for the lowest common denominator. Welcome to the world.
The initiative for responsible browsing and "not trusting the internet" has failed and there's nothing anyone can do about it. The last 5 years or so it's become pretty clear that the internet is a primary form of communication for a large and growing portion of humanity and people are not good at filtering. Maybe I live in a bizarro world. Deal with the culture or deny it. Won't change the reality.

Your criteria for uncivil behavior versus criminal activity is pretty extreme. It is not just irresponsible to knowingly state "yeah go ahead and drink that transmission fluid/poison, it's delicious" to an anonymous (potentially a minor or mentally handicapped individual) poster on an open forum. It's endangerment, at the very least.
I'm ok with this turn of events and think it will make for a safer society.

Do you remember the Los Angeles owner who's supplier cut him off for doing just that? (I can't find a link to the old story, but it was a featured report on NBC in Los Angeles a few years back) - I believe the current strategy is that a retailer is attacked legally, then disciplined by suppliers, then undercut. Big Oil always wins.
Any links you can find regarding oil companies running out the owners who attempt to subvert their price fixing, tend to disappear. This is real conspiracy theater stuff. Most link you will come up with are fringe/kook sites, but I think you would be able to dig up real evidence using some facts gathered from them (filtering the noise is the problem). Now here are some links, annotated as accurately as possible from a once-over. These few pieces took entirely too long to find as it is.
It's a series of rules. It doesn't take much intelligence or creativity and pays pretty well. It can be taught very quickly. Learn to like copying and filling out forms. Bonuys, as a developer, you probably won't forge anything due to your own inability to recognize what someone can or cannot prove via provided documents. As a PREPARER, you aren't 100% liable for validating these documents, so it's pretty much boilerplate.

I know this might be a little foreign to someone from the military, but some of us get multiple things done in a day. Our team has a daily standup to ensure we don't step on each others' toes too often, while we're getting shit done. The manager is almost never present, nor does he speak unless spoken to in the standups (with exceptions, if he's gone and done something related to one of our features or has a concern about contingency).
Probes have been sufficient for other solar planets. Multiple probes sent to the moon would have happened in the 80's (probably) and again in the 90's to make certain it was a dead rock. Wild theories of 'possible' alien lunar life would be a constant drone heard across the internet. Hell, I still hear there are Nazis hiding on the darkside to this day after we sent some rockstars out there.
> there is no evidence that is has changed enough to cause the change in temperatures we've seen
There is that one U.S. National Academy of Sciences study that appears on the Solar Variation wiki. I'm really interested where I can find something that indicates otherwise (substantiating your claim).
Any evidence that the statement: > It is far, far easier to create a new language from whole cloth than it is to convince the existing user base of a popular language to accept radical changes. is true in any way?
My application needs traditional text log files on disk, can I configure journald to generate those? No, you can’t. If you need this, just run the journal side-by-side with a traditional syslog implementation like rsyslog which can generate this file for you.
So no, the idea is to add an auditable logging system to run in parallel.
The suggested workaround will only work until software starts using The Journal directly without going through syslog, which is I think the end plan since syslog presumably can't support all the neat extra functionality.
It's a little difficult to understand which "workaround" you are referring to.
How difficult is it to use pipe to splitting input to another daemon that outputs plaintext files. I hazard it can be a simple configuration option...as if choosing to not use r/syslog in parallel was remotely realistic. The extra functionality The Journal proposes is a tamper-resistent file that can be relied upon for log accuracy. No software that needs to read from a file (most existing software that relies on traditional syslog files) would switch to reading from The Journal, as the operational time would be prohibitive (in normal use cases). A much more likely scenario would be to generate a new logfile from The Journal for inspection or operation, if that were needed.
Maybe I'm missing something, but this is about log integrity and nothing I've read implies massive disruption of existing setups.
The Matrix Trilogy had an excellent line, that really isn't played up enough.
> There are levels of survival we are prepared to accept.
This implies the machines were ready to separate (some programs) into compartmentalized versions to ensure survival and to start over, as in the beginning of their ascension to dominate the earth's surface. This strategy seems particularly applicable to deep space exploration as it speaks to practicality and the machine equivalent of transhumanism.
A form of space ark is currently, our best bet. Haul organic material (maybe just DNA) or a machine capable of synthesizing appropriate material from raw materials and send it off, piloted by an advanced AI and + digital copies of human minds. Based on our current understanding of physics, people born in the solar system will never get out of the solar system. The idea of self-contained craft that "lug around" energy is really silly and prone to failure. It's incredibly risky and there's no good model for how to do it. When you take the idea of minimizing organic maintenance and we already assume we're willing to invest a relatively large amount of inorganic components, we have a couple near-practical solutions. After we arrive at a habitable planet, we have a new set of problems. Say there's (likely) a ubiquitous pathogen that our human bodies can't defend against in the planet's environment, we better have the technology to adapt our bodies. There's not as many hurdles to cover as one would think, they are just different hurdles than most people think about and it's within reach.

This is a reasonable assessment. The pricing at 100-150 is not appealing. I don't care if it's a firesale. I can get a lot of food out of 100$ and I don't need another gadget to gather dust.
