That's absurd and petty. First, it was a warning not a threat, nor is Trump merely a private citizen with no responsibility to our national defense.

What has trump done that violated their ToS?

That sums up the current political climate pretty well and it doesn't bode well for our kids.

Totally agree. Censorship advocates are exercising the same flawed logic as those pushing the war on drugs. New day, different target, that's all.

Neat.

How to virtually guarantee funding: Create a research project that attempts to better understand a cause or a potential effect of some aspect of Climate Change.

How to be ostracized from the University zeitgeist and receive little/no funding: Create a research project that attempts to disprove any major assumptions or pillars of modern Climate Change science.

Welcome to politics.

Herbs should be treated like speech, freely available with education and stipulation that they be used wisely.

More strawmen: nobody said to never ask for help, just to make a first effort to resolve it peacefully yourself, if possible.

By standing up for one's self it's possible to both respect yourself and form respect between two or more people who were once quarreling. By dragging in HR, parents or the state you are cultivating a draconian environment where nobody at the job will respect her and she will never respect them, no matter how much they eschew sexism. They'll hate her and she'll fear them, forever.

Someone strong enough of character would be able to withstand the initial stupidity and confront the perpetrators and convince them to stop. Should she have to do that? No, but maybe her actions could lead them to be more mature and they'd all respect each other, and the next woman would have that much better of an environment to go into.

By immediately coddling them, you are accomplishing the exact opposite of what you think are doing.

I think that's what the OP was trying to say, but I can't read minds so who knows.

Step 2: The parent absolutely did not blame the victim for simply being there.

Step 3: You're assuming the victim would necessarily feel shame by trying to help them deal with assholes, and you're also assuming that shame was the intended outcome of telling them to stand up/call out idiots in the midst of their idiocy.

It's interesting how you decry the straw man but then set up your very own in Steps 2 and 3.

Given the number of UFO sighting claims, you would think everyone's chance of encountering a silent flying saucer shaped object in their lifetime is near 100%. My point is, everyone sympathizes with stories of abuse/sexism/racism, but the number of articles written about them doesn't prove they happen frequently or even that they happen in the majority of workplaces.

Most stories like the OP's can be summed as follows:

1. Some insensitive asshole was lacking respect or maturity or professionalism in general. 2. Women, who are generally more conscientious than men, naturally react more strongly to said assholes.

I think if you could magically make every employee not act like an asshole, reports of sexism would drop by 99%.

I don't think the vast majority Christians even worry about microchips anymore. It was a silly fear from the beginning that only caught on because of how novel and marvelous computers in general were and now that transistors have become more mundane, so have the old notions that piggybacked primarily on such novelties.

I'll see your bait and raise you a "whatever."

The rest of the media is the opposite, and they get linked all the time.

Thanks. I also hope that deauth frames are encrypted in the next version of WPA.

For those that don't know, like me, how would PAKE etc protect cracking of weak passwords used during client authentication?

When I worked for a large bank right out of college, they had buckets of planned time off and a smaller subset of unplanned days you could use. They didn't care why you used your unplanned time off and one my bosses even told us to use them all even if it wasn't for sickness, just use them.

Ars is far too political I think and they're very lopsided.

I don't like that Ars is cherry picking edge cases to oppose the action when everyone knows that there are huge problems with reproducing scientific data of any sort these days.

The only version of Windows 10 which prosumers want, they can't have.

I get it, but most of retail is Hemorrhaging money. Don't get me wrong, I want to see everyone being paid what they're worth and then some but most people I see argue about retail wages, they single out Walmart but don't have any data to explain why.

What if the premise is wrong or misguided? In other words, Walmart doesn't pay well because retail doesn't pay well. Nobody is forcing people to work at Walmart, and if they could, wouldn't they find better paying jobs? What keeps people working at walmart? Is it possible the rest of the retail sector isn't able to pay much more so they're all in the same boat?

There was a study of the video already?

Vice, meet Versa.

I don't think anyone argues that it doesn't occur, not even Republicans. The focus is on the extent of man's impact and what should be done about it. From the Republican point of view the alarmists have lost all credibility since about the 70s or 80s.
