So, how does the total emission compare to normal ocean waves hitting the beach?

Any sort of community based moderation is the main challenge, because of the small but critical enough mass of people who will make it their entire personality to police the speech and opinions of people in a particular discussion topic.

It's not just extreme speech, it is any opinion, fact or statistic which does not align with the person's worldview.

This could be political, religious, social, or any topic. The pro-censure persons equate any statement which does not confirm their own world view as a threat.

The pro-censure could come from the left or the right.

One of the key indicators of someone pro-cesure is their immediate labeling of any not-confirming statement as a (inset totalitarianism government), because engaging with the other person is distracting to the limited allowed worldview. Often, it's an emotional reaction to an un-affirming statement.

Not implying evil in the researchers intent.

The third-party countries, sending arms, sending advisors, collecting satellite and on the ground intelligence are doing research and development for their own military.

The US, China, and other countries get to test out equipment, learn from the tactics of each side, learn from the improvised vehicles and technologies and more.

This war is the largest drone based war up to this date and many countries are using it as a way to determine what to spend their military research and development budget on.

Language development teams mostly have had 20 or more years to just add features for features sake and annual job performance reviews.

Mature products, when having a major release must include the following so that the total number of features remains roughly the same year over year. They are:

- new features
- optimizations of existing features
- *important* - removal of multiple features

That third one has not really been followed by Java, C#, JavaScript and other languages in the top 10.

A bit of a conjecture here: The winner going forward will be a language that is a much smaller subset of one of the top 5 languages, sold on the basis of forcing reduced complexity via simpler language. It will be combined with a drastically smaller set of libraries and no reliance on a third-party 10,000 package repository.

It will break most applications, though it would give a migration path for adapting an existing code base to the new slimmed down language and slimmed down libraries.

Twitter abuse - '50% of misogynistic tweets from women' - 26 May 2016 - BBC

Half of all misogynistic tweets posted on Twitter come from women, a study suggests.

Over a three-week period, the Demos think tank , external counted the number of uses of two particular words as indicators of misogyny.

It found evidence of large-scale misogyny, with 6,500 unique users targeted by 10,000 abusive tweets in the UK alone.

Twitter boss Jack Dorsey has said that tackling abuse is a priority.

The research comes as UK MPs - Yvette Cooper, Maria Miller, Stella Creasy, Jess Philips - alongside former Liberal Democrat minister Jo Swinson, launch their Reclaim the Internet campaign, in response to growing public concern about the impact of hate speech and abuse on social media....

Microsoft should be able to get a Windows desktop down to 25 or fewer processes after boot up when it is sitting idle.

- Stop letting applications add their own services, just for application updates
- Stop letting add a process at startup or start a permanent background process

And yes, a suspended processes, swapped out to the OS pagefile is not in RAM, but is in all of the OS system tables for process information....

It's always interesting how many words and ways someone who makes money selling music can misdirect, appeal to emotion or other ways that they are really losing money and getting less music royalties.

There are millions of places paying for music, stores, restaurants, sporting events, etc. which will have essentially a free way to provide background music.

TV shows, movies, radio commercials, commercials in general will stop licensing well known songs.

The question is how do we package and deliver roughly the same content and interaction scripts to a user's browser without relying on legacy technologies, html/css/javascript/javascript based frameworks, which require large numbers of individual http requests and a large number of individual blocks of data.

Sending out a stub page with a small amount of script to download a compressed Zip file, uncompress it and then build out the web page locally still relies on the highly fragmented collection of small parts of a larger page.

It's easy to speculate that many outside of the two combatants are using the death of thousands of young men as an informational gathering research and development for their own military and are helping one or the other side to get more research information.

Private equity like steps:

1. Identify some small part of a business process, government process, ...
2. Extract out that small part
3. Get investors or others to fund a business from that part
4. Extract fees from it
5. Raise costs for everyone else slowly over time and cause inflation
6. Call it something else to claim a positive social benefit and get appeal for it from the general population

For example, shopping center owners in the suburbs putting paid parking meters nearest to the entrance doors even though the parking lot is 25% empty every day of the year except a week or so around Thanksgiving and Christmas.

The elephant in the room no one wants to talk about is that we're stuck with a 26 year old web html / javascript / css / connectionless protocol technology stack and none of the largest companies and stakeholders with a voice are willing to propose a significant replacement and carry that replacement to universal adoption and getting a W3C/ECMA standard for it.

Widely used web frameworks and languages still are underlaid with the legacy JavaScript technology, legacy layout and legacy use of connectionless protocols.

The optimization of compressing web content and combining HTTP requests is a band-aid on top of the underlying problems.

BBC.co.uk should not require 99+ http requests top get 7 MB of data for example.

Set the distance record by going for a more than 750 miles north to south in the center of the USA or a loop around the flat parts of Australia, etc.

Put the quotes from leaders and news articles through the language translator:

- "killing innovation" -> "reducing jobs", "reducing government tax revenue", "reducing political campaign contributions"
- "not living up to potential" -> "not enough future tax payers", "not earning enough to pay for government programs giving handouts to other people"

and more....

Case in point, look at the NATO countries complaining about spending more on defense. It's not about spending on defense, it is about politicians having to risk political careers by cutting social spending"

The net effect is that leaders want the status quo because it's a well built-up, entrenched system with well worn and well (re)played speeches and political party alliances with the net effect of keeping the existing and future crop of politicians and their close circle of dependent jobs well paid and stable.

Their also is the upper leadership aspect, where the most senior leaders in political parties, corporations, nonprofits, NGOs have a sizable amount of end of career and post-end of career aged persons who want the status quo to exist until they exit the work force.

There's a fear of commitment of 18-25 year olds of getting married and becoming parents.

Having a continual easy online dating way to try to trade-up with each new first date from 18 to 25 has yielded a generation of people whose purpose in life is to see and find ways to exclude everyone from their possible dating and marriage candidate list.

By the time they start to wake up and realize that the time to settle down, marry and become a parent ended 7 years on the past, it's too late and you end up with a cascade of "no suitable partners", "economically unviable", "red flags", and the trauma of trying to conceive via IVF articles in the media.

Childless age 30 women have less than a 50% chance of ever becoming a mother. per the Birthgap documentary, regardless of relationship status.

Post-30 and the "it is like a job interview" when going on a date refrain from men further dampens the chances.
