I did take the time to specify results from the same seed.
Instead of repeating pap you heard a bunch of times, (golly, I might have already heard it to!) you could always grow a vegetable garden and do a comparison with seeds from the same packet.
Even without organic vs conventional you can do the same sort of experiment with water; grow two tomato plants in your garden, give one the amount of water that conventional farmers apply, give the other one the least amount of water to maintain plant health. Easy for tomatoes; only water every 2-3 days, after the smallest branches have started to sag slightly. Most of the flavor and nutrients in a tomato come from the soil. Reduced watering decreases yield of the fruit, but it increases root growth! The end result of conventional watering is fairly bland tomatoes that taste OK fresh, and are good when cooked into a sauce. The water-reduced tomatoes have many times the flavor, the flavor is intense and obviously different. And if you make sauce, you need other ingredients to lighten it because the flavor is too strong and acidic otherwise.
It isn't hard to understand that the roots and leaves serve a different purpose in the production of the fruit, and that different farming practices have different effects on the root, leaf, and fruit.
It isn't just varieties, it isn't just what additives you apply, it isn't just the soil quality, it isn't just the sunlight, it isn't just the any one thing; it is all of these things, and in all of these things, maximizing production volume per acre is directly opposed to maximizing nutrient quantity.
Assuming you started from the same seen, you simply will have to sacrifice nutrient quantity to increase production volume! The reason organic vegetables are healthier is simply that it is the only one of the variables that has a label that means "was not maximized for production volume." So with organic, you know that at least that one variable will be at least neutral towards nutrient quantity. We don't even have a word for farming for quality instead of quantity, so the label "organic" stands in for it.
A self driving car should protect its passengers first or they wouldn't sell. Who would willingly ride in a vehicle that would intentionally sacrifice their life for any reason?
No, actually, we're going to let the traffic engineers at the Department of Transportation set the rules, which will be the same as for humans (stay in lane, stop as fast as you can, DO NOT SWERVE) and the engineers won't even ask the public.
The reason for that is prices. When the US arcades were still popular, and tried out some of those games, they made them 4 to 8 times more expensive than the regular games, and so nobody played them. Then when arcade popularity went down, the owners usually blamed any gruffy-looking teenagers hanging around for having destroyed society with their evil young-people politics.
In Japan business people are expected to know about money. In the US, only larger businesses are run that way; small business, like arcades, the business culture is anti-intellectual which can't help but also be accidentally anti-business.
This is what happens when you reinvent everything you possible can, just 'cuz' but to put the icing on the cake, you run everything as root when you do it...
Just imagine what they'd say if it had 12 intentional exploits added! Planet Neckbeard would assplode, probably wipe out the entire Klingon-speaking population of this galaxy.
1 lb of organic produce will have more nutrients than 1 lb of the produce grown with fertilizers from the same seed stock. fertilizers do not enhance the growth of every cell in the plant; a lot of nutrients, the same total amount is produced by the plant, but it is now diluted into a larger volume of produce!
It isn't about labeling, it is about the dilution involved in using growth methods that maximize yield, vs traditional growth methods that maximize quality and intentionally accept lower total yield per input. Claiming that organic and conventional vegetables are exactly the same is like claiming that homeopathic dilution is equivalent to undiluted medicine. It isn't about the label, it is about the physical composition of the substance.
Well, you're sorta right; they can't cite that case. They have to say something else instead, like, "We won't do business with nazis because they're harmful to our community." Done.
If the NSA intervened, you wouldn't know. If they already did intervene, you don't know, I don't know.
If in the future some truth about the NSA is revealed in public, we won't even have a way to distinguish it from an air force weather balloon. There is no way to know that stuff.
What is weird, really weird, is that they already made a statement in this case.
Why do it now? When they've got the affected companies going apeshit and making these kinds of insanely-strong statements about how they insist on the right of rich assholes to magically prove a negative through command voice, they might as well wait until it dies down a little, then dump the evidence on them. Right now it is still churning under its own power, why would they possibly want to shorten the time frame that it plays out over?!
Nobody is suing anybody, because discovery. They all know supermicro got p0wned and nobody is going to hand over their evidence after making Magical Command Lies.
Hidden inside the motherboard, or inside an ethernet socket on the motherboard?
If really inside, yeah, that is not a big deal to achieve. Remember, without all the plastic and the leads most microcontrollers would fit on a pinhead. It would be no big deal to slap an unpackaged micro with only bond wires stuck between two comm pads. No need to worry about altering the flash or whatever, you're not fiddling with the CPU; you're just monitoring network data and sometimes inserting packets. If you also have the memory bus, you have whatever you want, whenever you want, as long as it is small. Like an encryption key.
You don't even need power or ground, you can just use the signal power, as is done with rfid tags. Minimum three total connections for two buses, which is the world.
It would be really hard to notice something like that, even on an xray, because you wouldn't even be looking at the traces in that detail with that tool.
I don't think it is normally done but that doesn't guarantee that it would be that hard to achieve if they hired crafty engineers and were able to embed even just a single technician in the factory. Especially if you're just trying to slip it into a few systems to harvest keys so you can get a foothold in networks.

If you did not like chasing down weird memory corruption problems then you would not be using C (or C++) in the first place.
Well, perhaps but OTOH many of us avoid malloc like the plague.
It is the new fad style of tap-dancing that is popular with what the youngest generation is called this week.
What does this have to do with... nerdy news?

Dude. The Orange beast is fed by Russia. It's a natural gas steam engine.
In other words, China has a big red button somewhere that p0wns anything connected to the network that has that brand of RAM.
That's OK, they won't get in any trouble, they'll only have their lifestyles re-implemented.
When all you know is that a study was published, yes, you do know that it controlled for income level.
Gaaaaaa, the stupid, it hurts so bad!!!!!!!!!?!!!!1!!!!!!!

Those are claims you need to back up with sources of information.
No, no, no, no, those are claims you need to have sources of information about before you can analyze them.
You're just asking to me to convincingly propagandize you, but that isn't my goal, and isn't within my budget.

They're already one of the large cloud providers, but you don't know that because they only focus on big customers.

All the other languages that I can think of that do it are functional academic languages like Haskell.
I've always hated to deal with python in free software game projects because it moves too fast.
And here I was exited for the next popular new framework, diango! I thought I was going to generate websites off of dia graphs.
I can haz idea, or I can haz link to somebody with idea? I can haz search engine?
