The Detroit Free Press endorsed Clinton last week. This is Sander's guest column response. Time to wake up and smell the NAFTA.
"The decimation of Detroit, Flint and communities all over this country did not happen by accident. It is a direct result of disastrous trade deals that have allowed corporations to ship our jobs to low-wage countries."
So how would I use Hug as a secure public API -- https, authentication, authorization? Would I read up on Falcon? Are there any examples you could point to of how that might be done?
I think Dr Michael Greger's short video summary of salt research argues pretty convincingly that if you reduce your salt intake to very low levels (what he calls "normal-for-our-species salt intake"), you will not suffer from hypertension.
Wondering what information encoding in five dimensions is about, here's a bit from the abstract: "The two independent parameters describing birefringence, the slow axis orientation (4th dimension) and the strength of retardance (5th dimension), are explored for the optical encoding of information in addition to three spatial coordinates."
Yes, I thought the same thing about his "Video" swipe. That's weird about the duplicate; URL looks the exactly same so I don't know why I was able to post it.
This is one of the most interesting and convincing camera reviews – a "field test" – I've read. Six months traveling all over the world, with beautiful, casual results, elegantly displayed.
Just ask ad agencies. I worked for an old-style typesetting outfit as late as 1995 that still did lots of display type work for ad agencies. I found this kind of remarkable, considering how long desktop publishing had been around. The agencies outsourced the work (kerning and other typographic best practice) to "the professionals" because, well, it was still a valued specialist skill.

I followed the last link in the article (on weak back extensors) and found a helpful exercise video to recommend to my backpack-slogging teenage son. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKD2kKa_ME0
Hmm, that's much more specific, and seems to go beyond simply establishing that there's a permissions problem and they can see data they shouldn't. I still think cutting off the Sanders campaign from all their data, even after the bug was fixed, is over the top. Perhaps the staffers did act inappropriately or aggressively, but deal with them, and let the campaign continue with its daily business.
The fact that every search, export, and page access is logged, and that the Sanders people knew everything they did would be traceable, do you think they really would have tried to hoover up a bunch of Clinton data? The VAN CEO is emphatic that none of the exposed data was ever exportable.
My understanding is that the DNC contracts with VAN to manage the voter files for all fifty states. It's a shared database, with candidates able to build up their own data on top. All the campaigns can see the underlying voter data, but they additions they make are private to the individual campaign. The Sanders campaign staffers realized they were able to see Clinton campaign data they should not have access to. That's all that happened. The problem was fixed within a few hours. The Sanders people didn't abuse the bug in any significant way, in fact they reported it. But then the DNC cut off Sanders campaign access completely -- the nation-wide voter file, all their additions, inaccessible. At this point, the DNC response seems more punitive than security-related.
My understanding is that it's not the lead level in the water that's the problem, it's the increased corrosivity of the water coming from the river, which is leaching lead from the pipes. Most homes in Flint still have lead pipes connecting them to city water mains.
tl;dr In short, they're thinking magnesium salt or ammonia-rich clay, but... "As of this week, Dawn has reached its final orbital altitude at Ceres, about 240 miles (385 kilometers) from the surface of the dwarf planet. In mid-December, Dawn will begin taking observations from this orbit, including images at a resolution of 120 feet (35 meters) per pixel, infrared, gamma ray and neutron spectra, and high-resolution gravity data."

If you're looking to describe document structure in a markup language, especially where mixed content is involved (think think running text, not database results), XML is great.
I've done both. I found kombucha really easy to maintain. My biggest problem was getting over-ambitious and moving from a one-gallon glass container to a two-gallon container. The larger container made too much and got to be a hassle to process; it got to be a burden. I wish I had kept that smaller container.
Milk-based kefir (I have no experience with water-based kefir cultures, but imagine they'd be similar) is fun to make. The grains are easy to handle. It's similar to kombucha in difficulty, but grows faster, and you make smaller batches generally. Like kombucha, it can get quite sour if you leave it too long. I stopped drinking milk so I no longer make it, but remember enjoying the process. I have a Flickr album showing the process here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/davidniergarth/albums/72157604...
"This software never crashes. It never needs to be re-booted. This software is bug-free. It is perfect, as perfect as human beings have achieved."
"The most important things the shuttle group does — carefully planning the software in advance, writing no code until the design is complete, making no changes without supporting blueprints, keeping a completely accurate record of the code — are not expensive. The process isn't even rocket science. Its standard practice in almost every engineering discipline except software engineering."
More like extreme warming: "From 2004 to 2013, the scientists found, temperatures rose faster in the Gulf of Maine than in 99.9 percent of the global ocean. “It was a magnitude of temperature change that few ocean ecosystems have ever experienced,” said Andrew J. Pershing, chief scientific officer at the Gulf of Maine Research Institute and the lead author of the study."
