You and https://slashdot.org/~Tale+Sur... may both be right from different points of view. It seems you may have intended a different context from the actual context of the person to whom you replied.
"Bladerunner" is a noun. "Blade runner" is a noun phrase.
However, the grandparent post to yours was saying that "blade" is a noun and "runner" is a verb. Tale Surovi quoted that and said "No. Both are nouns.".
Both "blade" and "runner" are in fact nouns. The root "run" would commonly be a verb (although it can be a noun in "going for a run"). The form "runner", being defined as "one who runs" is a noun.
I know this is "THE INTERNET" and people don't like to take the time to be thorough. However, if you're taking enough time to be pedantic in the comments try to take enough time to read two whole comments consisting of a total of four short lines of text before correcting someone who is already correct.
If you're close enough to be standing at the very edge of the Mach stem, you're already dead. That's also talking about a quickly gained and then sustained overpressure, very suddenly going from 1 atmo to 2 and staying there a bit. There's not much gradient, either, as it's a supersonic wave.
The physics of a streamlined vehicle going from 2 or 3 PSI (remember nobody's planning complete vacuum) back to 15 PSI pretty suddenly through a gradient of pressures are fairly well understood. That's like going from around 35,000 feet (about 3 PSI) to 50,000 feet (just under 2 PSI) in altitude to sea level quickly, depending on air temperature. That's basically a plane that can do Mach 1 at 40,000 feet doing a near-vertical dive, only there's no necessary sudden pitch change because the pod will be near horizontal the whole time.
The failure mode of a hyperloop is not at all likely to be anything similar to going from sea level at the bottom of a 40-foot cylinder of air at 15 PSI and in milliseconds having all that air replaced by water to suddenly be under 30 PSI. That's more what you're talking about with the shockwave of 15 PSI overpressue at a few thousand feet from ground zero of a nuclear blast.
BTW, if you're close enough to a nuclear blast to worry about the full force of the overpressure wave you've already cooked by the time it's crossed your mind. Further out where you're not consumed in the heat of the fireball is where you should be worried about the air pressure.
Do you use Android? Do you spend more time with your phone or tablet than on a workstation or laptop? Congratulations, you're in the year of the Linux desktop.
Meanwhile I've got an XBox One S for movies and some games, several generations of other game consoles, a couple of Raspberry Pis running Raspbian but often used to emulate older console and desktop systems, a WebOS smart TV, a Linux smart TV, a couple of Chromecasts, a Windows desktop for games, a Linux desktop for personal non-game use, a Linux laptop for travel, a Mac desktop for company work that mostly connects to Linux systems and runs Linux VMs, a Mac laptop for company work that mostly connects to Linux machines or to my work desktop, two Android phones one each for work and personal use, and a non-Fire Kindle for reading without interruptions like I get on my other devices. My girlfriend has a Mac laptop, a Linux desktop, and an Android phone.
There's more to NP than NP-complete. NP is the set of problems that can be solved in polynomial time on a nondeterministic system. P is the set of problems that can be solved in polynomial time on a deterministic system. NP-complete are problems that currently our best solutions are NP but the output of those problems can be checked for correctness as P. NP-complete problems all seem to be mappable to one another. That's not necessarily the case for all of NP.
Proving NP-complete = P would only prove that subset, and NP != P is still a possibility.
And then, of course, there's !P which is another class of problems altogether.
Proving NP-complete != P would be exciting. Proving NP-complete = P would be more exciting. Proving NP != P would be very exciting. Proving NP = P would be world-changing.
"There was a concerted effort among upper management to have a very clear signal that what I did was harmful and wrong and didn't stand for Google," Damore said. "It would be career suicide for any executives or directors to support me."
Well, good. Don't bring tons of negative press down on your employer if you don't want to be let go for bringing the negative press. What he wrote were not official company positions, and Google letting him go is proof of that. Even if someone else in Google feels the same, that doesn't give him the right to make a screed into an official company memo. If circulating materials about HR, PR, marketing, or products is not your job you probably shouldn't be doing it.
The very self-centered audacity that he thinks everyone read his crap and that silence about it was a sign of approval shows just how little clue he actually has about this matter. He was more likely sliding by unnoticed until the PR storm brought it to someone's attention. The moment there were lots of complaints about it because people actually noticed it, his time at his employer was over.
Disclaimer and PSA: I certainly am not speaking for my employer in this post. Unless you're authorized to speak on such matters for yours, don't.
Then you get another RFID tag for your next employer, and the reader has to try to read them both and check them both every time you want a pack of gum. Then you go to a fourth and a fifth employer, and your doctor is getting concerned about the amount of foreign material in the limited space in your hand.
My company uses a badge for doors and the snack machine uses that and a PIN. The same thing can be done with the card number, and it doesn't stay with me for life.
The summary is a bit unclear. The phrasing of "it appeared to look at a user's code and insert links to related pages on Kite's website." reads as if the tool is inserting adware into the projects on which it's used. Indeed, this phrasing is straight from the article. But upon closer reading, it seems the ads are in Minimap's interface as used by the developer. This is a bad thing, but it's not nearly as bad as inserting adware into the projects your users are shipping.
I hadn't made the connection between this ban and UBI myself, but it's intriguing. Also, I think if a bar was entirely kiosk-delivered there wouldn't be a workplace issue. Perhaps maintenance workers would be supplied respirator masks or something at the bar's expense. Refills could be made from a different enclosure.
In Texas smoking in bars and restaurants is not banned statewide. It is banned in many localities. It's banned indoors by the city of Houston but not by some of the counties in which or adjacent to which Houston is located. Given the mild weather most of the year, many bars and restaurants in the city have patio seating where smoking often is allowed. That's better for the workers at least since it's not an enclosed space. So there's a certain amount of business that crosses the city line in either direction seeking indoor smoking or the lack of it. Many people who do smoke are happy enough to enjoy the patio.
Many of those patios are also dog-friendly. We're regulars with our dog at a couple establishments and sometimes take him to others. Often the smokers are very considerate of those seated around them, but not always. The breezes can foil the best intentions sometimes, but it tends to work out pretty well for all parties.
Someone who calls you a cuck or a snowflake for calmly disagreeing with them is generally not well versed in case law. You're lucky if they have both the mental capacity and the patience to read all the way through the Wikipedia entry for the amendment.
You make a number of good points and ask some good questions. It seems Harvard has done enough due diligence on this issue that they are comfortable with the potential consequences. Beyond that, I think there's quite a deep investigative story some journalist could follow.
As a matter of fact, in certain limited situations free speech is waived in favor of other Goods. It's not an absolute. Never yell "fire" or "bomb" in a crowded space unless it's an actual emergency. Don't walk into a courtroom and invite the judge at the bench to fuck his or her mother. Don't lie to get someone to give you money for something you're not providing. Don't perjure yourself. Expect that according to venue and nature of your speech, you may be asked to leave even from a public place to continue your free speech elsewhere -- don't go on an abusive, profanity-laced tirade in a public playground or at an elementary school for example.
Harvard is highly selective. This is basically a stellar university deciding they would rather these seats be filled by other students in light of this information. I'm pretty sure asking someone not to attend four years of functions at your venue because you deem their behavior to be detrimental to the enjoyment of the other patrons is acceptable at pretty much any venue.
Okay, so now everyone knows these kids are stupid. These stupid kids were about to attend Harvard. Harvard was about to admit stupid kids. It's Harvard. See the problem?
Harvard is a highly selective university. I'm guessing someone doesn't need to be well liked and popular to attend. However, they only want to admit students who can take full advantage of their excellent tutelage. Places of education tend to be uneasy about people who openly mock facts. Places with coed campuses full of horny teenagers tend to frown upon promotion of rape and sexual assault. Places with a number of different cultures and ethnicities represented tend to dislike people fond of genocide.
Could you honestly say that with the number of students Harvard turns away you'd rather ten spots go to these kids than other similarly smart and learned kids who didn't espouse these views publicly?
I'd go so far as to say that smoking in bars and restaurants should've been banned federally, specifically under OSHA jurisdiction. I'm mostly to the less regulation side, but safe workplaces shouldn't just be for factories and offices. Do people even conceive of being in a thick cloud of tobacco smoke for eight to ten hours at a time to make a living when they are crying "but the owner's rights to cater to smoking customers!"?
The nmbd client is part of the Samba project. Many installers ask if you "need SMB support" and install both. The Samba project is indeed for both being a server and a client. I'm so, so sorry I offended you because only one part of the project has the gaping security hole.
Those SMB shares should never be open to the Internet. There are plenty of ways to get into a local network and then scan for this sort of thing, though. Layers of security are always important.

HTH. HAND.
" Effect of various long duration blast overpressures and the associated
maximum wind speed on various structures and the human body. "
This is talking about the shockwave far from the initial blast, up to several miles away from ground zero.

What's irrelevant, though, if you're using Linux in your hand far more than Windows on your desktop? Is it Linux that's irrelevant or the desktop?

So... what's the question again?
"Page not found"
Well, that's one issue for a half-answer to the question.
I don't think the pressure differential in a nuclear blast is 15 PSI.
Why not put the explosive in the pod or time it at arrival of the pod? Your terrorists overwork themselves.

Meh. Encrypt stuff, put it in the directory.
Roman numerals are additive rather than multiplicative, but borrowing the symbol from Roman numerals doesn't mean you're writing it as a Roman number.
Currency has long traditions. I'm not sure, but it could go all the way back to MM of Roman numerals, literally "thousand thousand".
Don't get me started on million, milliard, billion vs. million, billion, trillion...

Some of that I would guess is from sports broadcast rights and patent licensing revenue.
