Should the draft [military conscription] include women as well as men?
There is no third option to this question. I know most of you would pick the third option, that there shouldn't be a draft. I'm dead set against it. But that's not the question.
I'm honestly curious what people think. I think the obvious answer is "yes". I also think obviously that the answer is "no".
Though I think most people recognize that if women are added to the draft, then we won't have a draft.

1/ An important basis for hacking is providing hostile input. The reason this is difficult is that engineers don't know what "input" is.
2/ Take the "Blaster" worm as an example. It worked by sending a long computer name over Microsoft's RPC mechanism. RPC works by taking internal data on one computer and sending it to another as internal data.
3/ The flaw in this thinking is recognizing that in between, it's external data, that it's "input". The computer on one end could never generate a computer name longer than 16 characters, so if that's internal data, it doesn't need to be checked.

1/ So maybe here's a good chance to talk about all the markings on a microSD card. What do all these codes mean??
2/ First, is the vendor. Toshiba/WDC(SanDisk) are the largest maker, working in partnership. Samsung is the next largest. Micron/Intel had a partnership and were #3, but they've disolved it.
3/ The maker of the card combines lash with a controller. The brand you buy, like Lexar, Patriot, Kingston, etc. may not have been the actual maker of the card, they just put their name on it. You can find the actual maker by looking (on Linux) in /sys/block/mmcblk0/device/cid

Note that we hackers have been using DMA attacks since the 1990s, starting with Firewire devices. While these "Thunderclap" attacks are new innovations, the basic concept has been around for a long time.
appleinsider.com/articles/19/02…
2/ DMA means "direct memory access", it means the hardware copies data to/from memory, bypassing the CPU, bypassing software drivers. In theory, a device on a DMA-capable port has full access to memory.
3/ To prevent this, modern computers now have IOMMUs, similar to the older "MMU", the "memory management unit", the feature of modern CPUs that prevents user-mode apps in the operating system from messing with kernel memory. IOMMU is just an I/O version of the MMU.

* Only 16% of college-educated white women will marry a man with only a high school diploma.

* Asian man / white women hold the highest median household income of all pairings. Why? Because white women *will* marry Asian men if they are doctors, attorneys, engineers, etc.
And we know white women will marry black professional athletes, celebrities, music entertainers

So the idea that white women will settle for poorer white men is false

Only if she is also poor w limited options.

Overall, white women like & prioritize comfort.

@SprklShneGlistn
In fact, college-educated white women in cities like NYC will choose to remain single over mating down, socioeconomically.

There's a whole book on it.

They treat the poorer, less-educated men of their race as if they're invisible.

It's fascinating. ☕

1. A few thoughts on Kingsley Amis, Philip Larkin, J.G. Ballard, Anthony Powell, Christopher Hitchens, BDSM, the political libido, & the tendency of some male writers to sexualize Margaret Thatcher.
2. I don't know if anyone has gathered together a full anthology, but a large number of British writers (as far as I know all male) have written about the hold Margaret Thatcher had on their erotic imagination.
3. A few examples. J.G. Ballard: "I believe in the mysterious beauty of Margaret Thatcher, in the arch of her nostrils and the sheen of her lower lip…”

@DebbieHayton I agree, Madam. I am following the debate from Italy, which is at the receiving end of #SJW crap. Young people are drinking whatever #YouTube or #Tumblr prophets are telling them from USA. The new Gospel says women do not exist except as a feeling, but also that #Gaymen and
@DebbieHayton #lesbians do not exist, we are a mere social construction. Heterosexual men are again the pivot of everything. Scholars debate about #nonheterosexual people and #nonmen as if this were a very progressive way of speaking. #transsexual is a slur, anyone can be a #transgender and
@DebbieHayton Speak in the name of the t* community, even if they never experienced what dysphoria is. The same with #Intersexual people, everyone is allowed to speak in their name, except them. You are not supposed to be #bisexual anymore because it is so binary. #Sex is a taboo word no-one

There was a throwaway sentence in a textbook I was reading: "In 1793, the French actress Olympe de Gouges was guillotined by the Jacobins, after daring to demand political rights for women as well as men." Of course I had to find out who she was, and why I'd never heard of her.
She was an abolitionist, who wanted a tax on capital, the legalisation of divorce and abolition of religious marriage (which she called 'the tomb of love and trust') in favour of a more egalitarian contract, a public health system, full equality between black and white people...
"All is in stasis while the heartless rich stash away their wealth, that vile instrument of their cupidity... can it make them happier? These inactive treasures, what good do they do anyone? They must be offered interest-free to the State in the same way they are placed in safes”

I'm seeing some pushback against the #DoctorsAreDickheads hashtag, so let me tell you a story. 1/x
A few years ago, my wife went to the ER with excruciating pain in her abdomen. Her anguish was downplayed and ignored for over 12 hours. She ended up losing her ovary. It was a traumatizing experience. I wrote about it here: theatlantic.com/health/archive… #DoctorsAreDickheads
Reporting the piece, I was stunned to find out how dramatically unequal medical treatment can be. The simple fact is this: Women don’t receive the same quality of care that men do. #doctorsaredickheads

Il est 14h et c'est l'heure de notre enquête du week end. Lancez vous de la bonne musique, chaussez vos casquettes de Sherlock, aujourd'hui on va tenter de savoir : pourquoi certaines personnes pleurent plus que d'autres ?
Dans un premier temps j'aimerai vous remercier car avoir plus de 100 votes pour lancer une enquête ça me touche sincèrement. Du coup : merci vraiment fort ça me fait vraiment plaisir.
Allez the game is on !
