Draper as far as we know didn't rape anyone and the described behavior while extreme is more on the level of indecent exposure than sexual assault.
Did he cross the line, if we are to believe the stories I'd say so... but even so I'm also going to blame any adult who goes into his room for a fucking private massage for leading him on. Sometimes victims really do carry some of the blame, consent is not some binary fucking signal.
That's a semantic issue. I don't call slaves and people tortured into a mental state where they can't consent whores.
Weinstein's "victims" had agency and gave consent. That's why prostitution should be illegal, so men and women don't get forced into making such choices.
I think they didn't want some old homo aggressively cruising for teenage dates because it's bad PR even when it's not in and of itself illegal.
"These included him massaging men in public and urging them to come to his or their hotel room for private sessions. In multiple cases in which the men agreed"
It's safe to say most of the men who went along with it and agreed to meet him in his room did it with their eyes wide open, you can assume some level of intelligence and worldliness at a hacker conference. The ones who were terribly naive got a nasty surprise, since draper obviously didn't really grok consent well (though he did understand the concept of stopping, as far as the story goes there was no rape).
He abused pity and shame to keep people quiet, not authority... he has none. He's a manipulator.
I have to say the reporter was really dedicated to his craft though, getting on their hands and knees with a naked Draper in the room just for an interview. What did he think was going to happen at that point?
You're stuck with home grown loons, you have your pick of foreign loons.
Will you pick the ones who promote sex segregated places of worship and keeping women in the kitchen etc, with a culture excellent at propagating those values across generations in the modern world?
I know the following is obvious, but somehow it seems to escape people, only a minority of bugs is exploitable to begin with...
It's not the amount of bugs which matter, it's the amount of potential exploits. All your bugs having to do with pointers were prime candidates for becoming an exploit, a language which rules them out can thus have a massive impact on exploits without affecting the number of bugs.
Same can be said for PHP and webcoders who keep writing their own SQL code and input sanitizers from scratch. They can make money, so it's not a critical problem for them. Just for society as a whole.
As Marcus Ranum once said : "Not only do we still have buffer overflows, I think it's safe to say there has not been a single category of vulnerabilities definitively eradicated."
"C is perfectly fine for most of what it is used for"
Except for anything with complex I/O for which security is relevant. Complex I/O such as a network interface or an USB port for instance, although frequently even text input has proven been too complex to implement securely in C.
They can't be Catholics if they use circumcision as a religious ritual, that has been explicitly forbidden since 1445 in the Catholic church (actually since the New Testament was canonized, but some people are really bad readers so they had to make it clearer).
So? Mainstream media is almost exclusively owned by globalists, siding with globalism when it matters (and occasionally giving an appearance of protest when the great status quo of international treaties and bought politicians means it's all written in stone anyways).
Given that that Jordan B. Peterson was locked out completely without notification and it included his Gmail account I suspect it was a triggered insider abusing its access rights. If it was a management decision they'd just have given him an official strike like they did here.
I should add this is only true for full suffrage, open borders could work in a democratic apartheid regime. Doesn't need to be heritage based either, could be something like need X m2 of land owned to vote for instance.
Democracy will not work with open borders, people will stream in faster than the economy can adapt, vote themselves entitlement because they feel no allegiance to the working population whatsoever... and then either fascism (lefty or righty, small difference) or civil war.
Democracy is a fragile institution which relies on a commonality and community which multiculturalism can't produce.
Bubbles in the US economy repatriate money which the US trade deficit exports, when the bubble collapses the money stays in the US and the foreign countries can spend a while longer shipping goods to the US. If they invested all their US paper in near-guaranteed income assets like non leveraged real estate or secure but low yielding companies, the US would be in serious trouble (it would snowball and transfer ownership of the US economy abroad).
They were breached due to incompetence. Whoever didn't keep all web front end up to date made a mistake, that's not negligence... mistakes get made. Security should mitigate mistakes.
Whoever allowed a bug in a fucking web front end to escalate into their entire database getting downloaded, now he has something to answer for. Of course almost every IT department gets their entire shit owned by their web front end being exploited... almost the entire IT industry is incompetent.
A lot of civilizations just collapsed with no lasting legacy but ruins, their philosophical and technological innovations forgotten until our Civilization's archaeologists started to uncover them. We got extremely lucky by inheriting the progression of preceding civilizations instead of just letting it all be reduced to rubble. Modern civilization is a complete fluke.
Seculars have now taken over the baton for the most part, lets see if they can keep it going. I kinda doubt it, they are falling into the same trap as Christianity in its dying days, lack of conviction in their superiority, hollowed out by human rights worship. Sure liberals think themselves superior to white Christians and are willing to twist every which way to combat them, but at some point Christians and whites are going to be irrelevant and they'll be surrounded by the faster breeding "allies" they brought in to defeat them. Liberals will have to go full commie and give up on human rights worship for parts of their culture to survive, I'm not sure they will be able to.
Or they would form the basis of the nation which has pushed scientific advancement the most in the last century, with European Christians forming the basis before that. Modern civilization is Greco-Roman-Christian, with Christianity producing the vast majority of historically significant advancements.
Whether the secular Johnny Come Latelies will manage to finish this century without collapsing it all seems doubtful... and it won't be climate change to create the downfall.

Damnit, you had me going for a moment :)

No, the rest of the world needs to know they are wrong.
The 6 most exploitable ones are overflow/underflow related, what a surprise.
You're stuck with home grown loons, you have your pick of foreign loons.
Will you pick the ones who promote sex segregated places of worship and keeping women in the kitchen etc, with a culture excellent at propagating those values across generations in the modern world?
No investigation needed, there is a large surplus of people who want to immigrate. Just turn them down.

Thanks to people like you.

If mining activity goes down an attack on the blockchain becomes cheaper.

Circumcision divides both the right and the left ... they are both torn between not mutilating kids and virtue signaling pro-semitism.
If Putin does it, it becomes much harder for the EU/US to justify crippling VPNs.

So pick your poison.

Bubbles implode.
Bubbles in the US economy repatriate money which the US trade deficit exports, when the bubble collapses the money stays in the US and the foreign countries can spend a while longer shipping goods to the US. If they invested all their US paper in near-guaranteed income assets like non leveraged real estate or secure but low yielding companies, the US would be in serious trouble (it would snowball and transfer ownership of the US economy abroad).
Bubbles are necessary for the status quo.
