A conversation recorded by one of its participants is never "eavesdropping". If that is the rationale used by those promoting two-party consent laws, then they either don't know what words mean, or they're deliberately trying to confuse people.
Now they can assume any drone is a threat and respond accordingly, and have the legal authority to take it out and arrest its pilot if they can find him.
If you don't understand how easy it is now to build a homemade cruise missile, well, you're probably the kind of stupid person who was shocked, shocked that passenger jets could be turned into weapons.
Who is going to hire someone out of prison with a record as a programmer.
Seriously, use to be an ex-con knew his place, and you could count on them to shovel all the shit you threw at them and they'd keep their traps shut.
But now they come out of Rikers with their heads full of nerd gibberish and they think they're fuckin' rock stars! You tell 'em you got a job for them and they demand free meals and a massage therapist! If you want a rub and tug, get it on your own damn time!

Who is the biggest risk? Who has the least to lose and the most ideological fervor? Who is most likely simply to get hacked?
Actually, it isn't the gun nut magazine, it's the Southern Party of Georgia.
That would make an even better headline: Georgia Gives Personal Data of 6 Million Voters To Racist Lost Cause Political Party You've Never Heard Of
They're eating up the author's framing as if it was literally what Nye said. What he actually said was that NASCAR should reward fuel efficiency as well as speed, as it would make a more interesting engineering problem.
Besides, everybody knows that if you're not NASCAR, you're NASCDR.
You're pretty fuckin' dense if you think anything is wrong with that blog post on calling black people "articulate". I mean, Chris Rock makes the same point, and isn't he the excuse you trot out for being allowed to say the n-word?
To think it is in the same league as that whiny Salon article demonstrates why right-wingers need to keep their damn mouths shut when it comes to social justice issues. All they seem capable of doing is giving more ammunition to the SJWs.
So he's a rambling hack at Georgia Tech maligning the engineer? Maligning maligning maligning the software engineer Like all his lit crit buddies, his grudge is quite severe He's a rambling hack at Georgia Tech maligning the engineer.
Because it pisses off the insecure people who whine about this.
The whole "engineer" requires licensure thing is a recent invention and is mostly for people to puff up their status, much like lawyers trying to make "esquire" happen. They already have a title, "Professional Engineer", and they can stick "PE" on the end of their names all they want, and no one else is allowed to.
"Engineer" is a common word they don't and will never own, at least not in the United States.
Stupidity has to hurt, or people don't learn. Better it happen this way then with a bug that compromises billions of devices.
As the article points out, he didn't call out the author of that code, so they weren't publicly shamed (which, ironically, is the preferred tactic of his critics), but you know they were ashamed, and rightly so.
Fear of becoming the cause of a Linus rant is part of the quality control of Linux, and it is highly effective.
If he just removed the line about "microaggressions" and the following two lines (and examples), it would be a reasonable code of conduct.
Of course, that would be throwing the baby out with the bathwater. The whole point of this exercise is to use the CoC as a means to promote an ideology.
Now, given all the complaints this will surely generate, do you think he'll take his own advice?
Just stop doing what it was they complained about and apologize.
That article must be a fabrication. In it see a young woman who got a job in an a mostly male profession and did so without a massive government expenditure and PR blitz to indoctrinate girls into doing it.
Despite making light of the pay gap, and the surprise she receives at being an outlier, she doesn't even complain about the discrimination and harassment that must necessarily be happening. This has to be fake.
There is a small software tool that developers use, and a 32-bit hexadecimal value that shows up in one dialog box defaults to the hex value "DEADBEEF". Clever, right? Also harmless and not at all intended to be offensive. But someone got offended and they made them change it.
I've had one try to "friend" me that was pretending to be a journalist. It looked plausible except for the fact that it used a stock photo that was easily found by image search, and the name couldn't be found on published articles anywhere.
I don't know anything about this technical controversy, but I know enough about software to know that this attitude is fucking poison.
Linux isn't a democracy. Committees don't produce good design in any context, whether it be code, or art, or even government - if it works, there is always a coherent vision driving it.
If you don't like that vision, by all means, prove it wrong by competing with your own, but don't push the belief that increasing complexity with a hodge podge of solutions that try to please everyone is ever good design. That always leads to failure.
Seriously. We don't need government coercion, what we need are walls around our cities to keep the disease ridden, herd immunity breaking unvaccinated in the slums where they belong.
Projection? You're denying the elephant in the room. Rather than dig up all the feminist teeth gnashing over this when it was news two years ago, let's just get it from the filly's mouth:
I don't think this is a gendered topic.
Two questions later...
I think that my perspective is somewhat coloured by both my gender and my age... So I think they picked up a little bit of the brogrammer culture... that just doesn't work for people who aren't men
Oh dear, gender essentialism... tsk tsk. There's nothing preventing women from learning and appreciating this "brogrammer culture". Women have done it forever, until feminist called them "cool girls" and started shaming them.
This isn't empowering women. This is arguing that they are weaker than men far more profoundly than any MRA red piller gamer gater misogynist could ever hope to accomplish.
Just do what I do, get one of these, and use monitors with at least three inputs. There's actually quite a few that do DVI, HDMI, and either Mini DisplayPort or VGA.
But oh noes, you'll have to change the monitor inputs individually. No KVM is going to let you swap them independently of the keyboard/mouse, at least not one that costs less than a whole computer, which poses the question - why are you fetishizing your laptop? What can you possibly run on it that won't run on the desktop PCs? And if it is so important, why not give it a dedicated monitor?

The tiny gun magazine, of course. The political parties and newspapers actually have reputations to lose.
Besides, have you ever heard how gun nuts talk?

There it is again, that right the social justice zealots assert for themselves but don't allow for people like Linus Torvalds and the Linux community.

Is the station owned by an American? Did they pay their FCC licensing fees?
If so, then who cares? Free speech, bitches. Anyone who has a problem with this doesn't deserve to live here.

It's funny how this option is not acceptable to the activist zealots when it comes to the Linux kernel.
That reminds me, how is SJLinux doing?

My name is a trigger word.
Frat boys call each other bro, such that it becomes part of a stereotype.
Feminists start using the word as a slur to evoke the stereotype in order to ridicule anyone they perceive as too masculine.
People start using bro ironically in a totally different context.
Feminists lose their shit and call *that* "offensive".
I'm guessing what they're really upset about is their insult losing its negative connotation.

Since we're predicting things, I'm predicting you're a gamer gater conspiracy theorist who yells "SJW!" when you step on a Lego.
You do realize you're an actualized stereotype, right? You're who feminists visualize when they want to feel good about being right.
