"Resources are getting cheaper and easier, which means we can have more people on the list than ever before." A huge list is not a good thing. You get way too much noise that way. That 22 year old upper middle class college student in Minnesota that uses Tor, posts on Slashdot, and looked up pressure cookers is not a threat and they do not want to deal with his noise. He is of no more interest than I am. A white 50 year old computer programer that looks up how to make rocket candy and is a huge fan of aviation. We could be noise in the system but will be tossed quickly because we not going to be a threat to anyone.
The trivial things I am find with. The bad not so much. I can not think of any good solution to the problem of getting rid of the bad uses while keeping the good ones.
You left out the third reason. We bet to collect taxes and SS from those workers. They can never collect the ss because they are illegals and that helps keep ss afloat. And both sides want the cheap labor and use then for an advantage.
I find this as some strange intersection of narcissism and paranoia. No you are not a big enough threat to waste resources on so calm down and drink some camomile tea.
Tor is so interesting. It can be used for really good things but is often used for really illegal and or immoral uses.
For the NSA to spy on a data center in Germany run by a German company is totally legal under US laws and by having a German company run it Microsoft is totally off the hook.
If anyone has studied the history of the UKs aviation and space industry will simply say I will believe it when I see it. The modified rule has versions for battery tech or mass storage tech. I will believe it when it ships.
Thank goodness things don't work that way. If the majority of people didn't want a cafe with a large gay clientele should they boot that out? So you want everyone to be subject to the voting of the local community? You are the flipside of the extreme libertarian view of "you can do anything you want on your property". Both plans are terrible.
This is Minix 3. It is a new microkernel OS that explores some interesting ideas in security and reliability. It is not the Minix you have in your book. From www.minix3.org What Is MINIX 3? MINIX 3 is a free, open-source, operating system designed to be highly reliable, flexible, and secure. It is based on a tiny microkernel running in kernel mode with the rest of the operating system running as a number of isolated, protected, processes in user mode. It runs on x86 and ARM CPUs, is compatible with NetBSD, and runs thousands of NetBSD packages. Get MINIX 3 now and join our community!
Oh please. You like most other people seem to think that I am bothered by rude people. The issue is what about 14 year olds that want to get into programing and get treated like scum? Frankly I constantly have to delete words like, moron, idiot, and so on from my posts as I type them it is often not easy to remember that the person on the other side of the screen is a person with feeling. I constantly see rude and hurtful posts that know make some mailing lists an unfriendly place for people just getting started. The only issue I have with abusive folks on mailing lists is that it is a challenge for me to keep from blasting them back.
"A good thing is to encourage people to not think of themselves of fragile little butterflies who will be destroyed for life if someone says a harsh word."
A good thing would be to encourage people to think of other people as fragile and to not say a harsh word.
I would say no. I really liked DS9. I might have liked it better than TNG because I found it more realistic. Frankly early TNG had to much of the Hippy 1960s feel of TOS for my taste. But then to be honest I believe that any Utopia will be someone's hell. DS9 showed a universe that seemed more real than TNG. I really did not like Voyager all that much and really disliked Enterprise at all. I am also not a big fan of the new movies but that is just me. And yes I will keep watching them and the new shows hoping that it will be good. Now ST:TAS was actually had some great episodes.
"If you want pablum, stick to Farmville. If you want to join us in the coding trenches, wear asbestos underwear." I have been in the trenches for decades and for the most part professionals don't act like jerks. You have a few primadonnas now and then that you put up with but for the most part they are just tolerated.
"t Adults can say that's stupid or you're a moron as part of normal healthy discourse it's intent that matters. Healthy razzing friendly banter etc etc is part of normal adult communication." Among friends yes it can be. In a working group of developers without any face to face social interaction no. At that point it is just harassment.
" So, might individuals and companies think twice about embracing a programming language whose community's Code of Conduct threatens to ruin reputations and ban people from technical support resources for life? "
Or might individuals and companies embrace a programming language whose community that is polite and professional? Maybe it is time for people to understand that being straightforward and direct is not the same as being a rude jerk.
If you read the actual proposal you will see that they have a range of options if someone is out of line. I don't know about most people but I have no problem with a life long ban for someone that threatens to kill or rape someone online. And yes it does happen. In fact it has happened to me on Slashdot. It was an AC and it didn't really threaten me much but had it happened to someone else they may have actually been concerned.
It seems to start up fast enough on my system. I tend to use notepad++ at work since I do windows development. On Linux I am a fan of JOE because I am old enough to have used Wordstar and Turbo Pascal so the command set is like an old friend to me plus it is tiny and works great over ssh. If Joe is not on the system then I fall back to Vi/VIM. I will say that I have a really good PC at work with a ton of ram and SSDs.

No they don't.

2. Boot-Camp? Can you think of anything that is more male centric than the term Boot Camp?

Or they are just a bunch of people that like to complain.
Don't confuse the faithful with the facts.
It is now FOSS "BSD" I believe so the source is available on-line. http://git.minix3.org/index.cg...
That is if you only watch one show on CBS all access. I do not have cable and can not get CBS with my antenna so it is a good deal for me.

I hope that Minix 3 gets more interest. When I have time I really want to see if I can use it for NAS.

$1.50 an episode is a bit much?

Most gas actually comes from gas wells and we do not import natural gas as we have a very large domestic supply. And natural gas is NOT OIL!.
