| schestowitz | I think no one pays for the reasons mentioned in the post. First of all, people pays to shift blame and responsibility to someone else, that's basic in enterprises. Second, if you want to get support for Proprietary Software X then you have to use the operating system and version blessed by them, and that is almost never a non-enterprisy software like Debian. Third, companies want to have security so prefer to have a "secure" | Dec 15 22:44 |

And the last and more or less legitimate reason, some companies might be pushing Linux limits hard so are more likely to find bugs and having someone compromised to fix them is reassuring. | Dec 15 22:44 |
| schestowitz | None of those reasons apply for very small companies and home users, that's why nobody uses Red Hat in his personal computer. | Dec 15 22:44 |

| schestowitz | There is a lot of ways to produce a poll that has the results you want, but I feel this one might be accurate for the reason I have been saying: you cannot invade countries with only a handful of evil people. | Dec 16 17:42 |
| schestowitz | I cannot speak about the US but can about my country. Some 20 years ago I worked at a new, university-affiliated poll company that later discovered was an instrument to support political aspirations of someone powerful in that university. I was in charge to process and get results, and sometimes interpret, polls about many things, from clients that used them in public or private. At the beginning we used to make political polls | Dec 16 17:42 |
| schestowitz | because we needed to get credibility and those had impact so we did very good and accurate polls at that time. | Dec 16 17:42 |
| schestowitz | Some political polls were private for our sponsor, never went public so there was no need nor gain to manipulate them, they were to get information about voters and preferences. Also I processed them and saw how they were done, I saw nothing that would make me believe they were manipulated. | Dec 16 17:42 |
| schestowitz | In one of those polls one of the questions was: why would you vote for your preferred political party? And something like 15%, more than 10% for sure, said: because of family tradition. Can you imagine a more stupid reason to vote for a political party? I couldn't but there was no need of that, the poll gave me other: because party X had the colors of the flag. They were less than 5% but too many to me. I was so shocked that I | Dec 16 17:42 |
| schestowitz | personally checked the paper polls and was true. | Dec 16 17:42 |

| schestowitz | ou're missing my point. But to respond to yours, guilt or innocence has little to do with criminal [in]justice: Dan Simon, In Doubt: The Psychology of the Criminal Justice Process (Cambridge, MA: Harvard, 2012). | Dec 20 08:30 |
| schestowitz | Now, my point is that given that it took over 70 years for the criminal injustice system to figure out that this 14-year old boy didn't do it, he would now be 84+ years of age. The life expectancy for Black males doesn't even approach that. | Dec 20 08:30 |
| schestowitz | The police and judicial "fact-finding" (which is really anything but) in this case had concluded the kid was guilty. That means the question here is not whether or not they were going to sentence him, but what the sentence would be. And the alternative to death would have been life in prison. | Dec 20 08:30 |
| schestowitz | It is extraordinarily unlikely that this Black kid, whose life expectancy is substantially less than a white man's anyway, would have lived to be 84 in prison. He'd have died long before he was exonerated. | Dec 20 08:30 |

| schestowitz | There is a lot of ways to produce a poll that has the results you want, but I feel this one might be accurate for the reason I have been saying: you cannot invade countries with only a handful of evil people. | Dec 16 17:42 |
| schestowitz | I cannot speak about the US but can about my country. Some 20 years ago I worked at a new, university-affiliated poll company that later discovered was an instrument to support political aspirations of someone powerful in that university. I was in charge to process and get results, and sometimes interpret, polls about many things, from clients that used them in public or private. At the beginning we used to make political polls | Dec 16 17:42 |
| schestowitz | because we needed to get credibility and those had impact so we did very good and accurate polls at that time. | Dec 16 17:42 |
| schestowitz | Some political polls were private for our sponsor, never went public so there was no need nor gain to manipulate them, they were to get information about voters and preferences. Also I processed them and saw how they were done, I saw nothing that would make me believe they were manipulated. | Dec 16 17:42 |
| schestowitz | In one of those polls one of the questions was: why would you vote for your preferred political party? And something like 15%, more than 10% for sure, said: because of family tradition. Can you imagine a more stupid reason to vote for a political party? I couldn't but there was no need of that, the poll gave me other: because party X had the colors of the flag. They were less than 5% but too many to me. I was so shocked that I | Dec 16 17:42 |
| schestowitz | personally checked the paper polls and was true. | Dec 16 17:42 |
| schestowitz | Really, there is no need of convoluted conspiracy theories when simple stupidity and conformism can explain everything. What could be expected of a country that 20 years ago had an average education of less than 9 years of school? | Dec 16 17:42 |

| schestowitz | ou're missing my point. But to respond to yours, guilt or innocence has little to do with criminal [in]justice: Dan Simon, In Doubt: The Psychology of the Criminal Justice Process (Cambridge, MA: Harvard, 2012). | Dec 20 08:30 |
| schestowitz | Now, my point is that given that it took over 70 years for the criminal injustice system to figure out that this 14-year old boy didn't do it, he would now be 84+ years of age. The life expectancy for Black males doesn't even approach that. | Dec 20 08:30 |
| schestowitz | The police and judicial "fact-finding" (which is really anything but) in this case had concluded the kid was guilty. That means the question here is not whether or not they were going to sentence him, but what the sentence would be. And the alternative to death would have been life in prison. | Dec 20 08:30 |
| schestowitz | It is extraordinarily unlikely that this Black kid, whose life expectancy is substantially less than a white man's anyway, would have lived to be 84 in prison. He'd have died long before he was exonerated. | Dec 20 08:30 |
