Agreed- They're going to capitulate to law enforcement without a court order if they don't like your politics... or if it's inconvenient for them.
> When we cooperate with law enforcement, we do not do so blindly. We review their activities, both for abuse of power and to make sure proper processes are followed to protect our members’ rights. Such things are vanishingly rare, not (as they are sometimes depicted) the default. So if you’re expecting that we will automatically say, “Shove it, coppah!” anytime the police come calling about your site, we’re not the right service for you.

“thought terminating cliche” is itself a thought terminating cliche.
An incredibly lazy, unintelligible way of arguing, but alas…
More than I spent studying in college.
Interviewing has gotten out of hand...
I guess they could just create bogus entries that show as emails for IMAP/POP users.

Wonder if - lacking an order top stop from the FCC - I could occupy a frequency and ultimately claim squatters rights or adverse posession on the frequency if someone eventually licenses it.
The govt fabricated bullshit about WMDs in Iraq, I don't see why they wouldn't lie about a baloon.
Terrorism was used to pass the patriot act, anti-Chinese sentiment is being used for The Restrict Act and god knows what else is in the pipeline.
> It is funded by fees levied against the banks themselves.
I'm sure that's not passed onto the customers at all.
> I'm imagining basically walls of well-placed mirrors. That would take care of quite a bit of the lighting costs, at least.
... or windows. We could call the building housing these green things "greenhouses."
Depends on the judges involved.
> There is no recognized cryptocurrency addiction.
Crypto speculation. Like all speculation is ultimately gambling, which people can get addicted to.
Most sealife has mirror symmetry though, doesn't it?
I guess jellyfish, urchins meet the rotational symmetry though.
With the GetFileName plugin if you like to preserve the original filename.
I remember really wanting one of these back in 2007 or 2008.
Run of the mill narcissism.
> we had a weekly lab meeting where one of our lab members would pick a piece of published literature in our field and break down how bullshit it was.
Did you (or your lab members) publish contradictory results, or should I just trust this assessment?
> Work and verification of work builds on each other. And every once in a while, we have a major milestone that verifies that much of the work that went into accomplishing the milestone (such as the moon landing) is generally correct.
Right- that's called trust. I can't independently launch my own lunar program, so I trust those that did... did.
No, it's absolutely absurd that you expect every scientist to independently (and recursively) verify every result their work is based on.
With unlimited resources, sure.
But most scientists trust the peer review process and base their work on their own ideas and the ideas/results they read in journals.
In short, scientists trust other scientists.
Pretty much all human interaction is trust based.
