Anyways south Africa is definitely not a first world country. Gdp per head at ppp is 13k[1]. This is substantially poorer than countries like Turkey and Thailand that are often considered third world.

Middle income though? Sure.

That's no longer the case. With this new Two Factor authentication there are no security questions, no recovery key, and Apple can recover your account if you lose all of your trusted devices and forget your password.

Devices are automatically trusted the first time you login and enter a verification code.

When anyone tries to login to your account on the web or from an untrusted device, all of your trusted devices notify you with location of the login attempt. It's a pretty good setup.
It is kind of great to think that though the phone lines held all the bandwidth, we escaped those, right? Which means that escaping the most popular and dominating websites should be considerably easier..I like the federation idea.
"Set" as in the present verb: "the West" is still very much meddling in African politics, France in particular routinely engages in direct military terms all over the continent.
ok but the F-35 isn't the go-to plane for CAS right now. On the opposite end of the spectrum you can get an AC-208 'combat caravan' for $150k in non-sequential bills and a late-model hyundai sonata (KBB value $15k).

Someone cooked up a model showing that the embraer super tucano would have been more effective in the CAS mission in afghanistan than some of the high power jets we used, in addition to 10x cheaper.
Basic income reduces the supply of labor because it reduces the employee's need for income. Basic income increases the velocity of money, increasing the demand for labor. In a competitive market this should cause labor prices to rise.
GDP growth in Western Europe moderately outpaced the US between 1973 and 2003.

I readily concede that such numbers are not very concrete, but economic growth in the EU is quite similar to economic growth in the US.

Where are you putting that link that you can't just use the full link? Many places let you use <a> tags which lets it look not so ugly.
As someone who spent way too much time building Django inspired template engines (Jinja, Jinja2, Twig, etc.) I must say this is really cool and very close to what I wanted to build myself for Rust but did not have the time.

> Tera uses serde which means that in the example above

Very good. But serde needs to get stable :(

> beautiful html output out of the box (ie no need for the {{- tags)

This is a request that comes up often but I tested this so much and always came back to not doing magic. It breaks too many applications in unintended ways (particularly plain text output).

> able to register new tags easily like the {% url ... %} in Django

I would not do that again. Jinja has an extension interface and I regret adding it. I much rather have people just expose functions to the templates. That said, in Rust that might be not a good idea because there are no keyword arguments so make it makes sense there.

> no macros or other complex logic in the template […] include partial templates

Another thing i strongly disagree with but I can see the motivation. Macros in Jinja I prefer so much over includes because it becomes clear what values exist. Includes become really messy unless you are very organized. Macros (which are just functions) accept the parameters and it becomes clear what the thing does. Just look at that macro as an example: https://github.com/pallets/website/blob/master/templates/mac...

It's absolutely clear what it accepts as parameters. If that was a partial include the "caller" needs to set up the variables appropriately and there is no clear documentation on what the template wants etc.

But awesome to see this happen for Rust!

Humorously, I am very picky about what I eat (for health reasons), I eat both of those and did not know they were kosher.

I try to eat clean. I don't restrict myself to kosher foods, but I have found kosher foids to generally be a good option.
> Edit: Why spread the ugliness of "endif" and "endblock"? Why not just "end"? Why have the unnatural "elif" as well?

Not the developer but I did not remove endif for twig or jinja either coming from Django. Reasons for it: it becomes a lot more readable in the templates and it avoids lots of debug headache due to accidentally deleting things. It's already hard enough to debug template code sometimes but this way at least it's very quickly clear what the problem is.

What would you use instead of elif? `{% else if %}` is in no way nicer than `{% elif %}`. I picked `elif` in Jinja because it's what Python uses and that's where Jinja is at home.
This 100% doesn't affect most food. I grew up in Israel, where things being Kosher is the norm rather than the exception. Although the central Rabbinate covers most kosher foods, the more orthodox will often defer to the authority of particular rabbis and buy from a smaller set of products than all of what is nominally kosher. In my experience, they often tended towards the lower quality end of the spectrum.

When you're dealing with a product that has only a few ingredients like matzah, any increase in attention will have a positive overall effect. In more complex processed foods, when your emphasis is on meeting various kashrut guidelines the flavor of the food becomes secondary. Not only that, you know that you have a captive market.

So, this is a fun story, but should really have

s/food/matzah/

Applied to the headline.
This is brilliant! Sites like this remind me of what made the Web great: nothing to sell you, nothing to advertise, nothing to buy; just some nerdy amalgamation of the reboot sequences of yesteryear.

In my personal experience, writing the copy myself was overly self conscious and produced poor results.

Yes I can see how goofy mine would read. It's one of those things I'd be embarrassed of about a week or two later. But writing one's own copy is much more personal especially when it's a story.
Developers are pretty mobile so you should expect that wages will converge on a global basis.

Is "Air" a brand? I would think of "Air" in the context of Apple as a "product line" and product lines come and go.

When the Air was first launched it made sense to differentiate it from the other Apple products by giving it a specific name and maybe today that's no longer required.
Markdown isn't plain text, however - while annoying, you could achieve the desired formatting with markdown both in plain "unrendered" mode, and in eg: html, by appending "<space><space><enter>" for forced linebreaks. There's no equivalent AFAIK for hn markup, you'd have to use a pre-block:

- pest
- cholera
pick one.

I believe the choice to translate single-enter to a space that can be reflowed is actually based on among other things email-formatting: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2646#section-4

I suppose the reasoning for not sticking with "<space><cr><lf>" for soft breaks, and "<cr><lf>" for hard breaks is that plain text on *nix uses just <lf>. So either most people would get ugly <cr>-marks and/or inconsistent <cr><lf>s in their README.md-files, or something other than rfc2646 was needed.
Anything other than build infrastructure, educate children, coin money, provide public safety, deter foreign invaders, etc.
The nice thing about Jupyter notebooks is that rather than having a command history which can be unwieldy when tweaking functions, you have cells that are easy to go back and edit. Additionally, when you're done with your experiments you can tidy things up, stuff a few markdown comments in there and you have a nice tutorial for other developers.
Interesting video, but the two axis graph he presents is not a particularly good method for understanding the development of the world. Especially when one of those axes is average life expectancy from birth, which is mostly an illustration of the fact that we figured out how to significantly reduce infant mortality. Yes we figured that out likely due in part to the growing prosperity in society but there are I believe better ways for understanding development and prosperity around the world.

Maybe some nations just express their prosperity in different ways. For example the awe-inspiring artifacts of the ancient cultures in Europe and other areas. While maybe ancient cultures in the South Pacific were content to just chill on the beach, or cross the seas, or on Easter Island, do that Easter Island thing.

It took the west a long time to figure out the stable government structures.

What do you mean by that?

Those 'cultures around the med' were basically the longest lived in the history of the world. In many ways they are still living.

Europe has enjoyed great prosperity in for over 2500 years. Waxing and waning in terms of breadth perhaps. But not hard to find throughout the historical record.
The degree of dispersion should be the same, though, right? It's just that with a lower starting density you end up with a lower ending density. But the relative performance of the methods would still be valid.
But all you have to do to escape the most popular and dominating websites is not use them.

People act as if Facebook and a few other sites have literally become the web but they haven't. Extremely popular, yes, but it's not as if the web gets smaller when Facebook gets bigger. Even the linked article uses the term "land grab" as if there was a limited amount of "web" to go around.
Refactoring can be its own source of problems. I've seen far too many refactorings that merely exchanged one mess for another. I'm a bit sympathetic to a manager who is skeptical of refactorings.

(G)Zdoom can play all wads made for other ports but it's not backwards compatible with wads made for older version of zdoom. And that's a pity besides you have to change many default options to play "doom" like it was. In original doom monsters have infinite height, so you can't walk on monsters,pass under flying monsters. Looking up/down, jumping and making the bfg more powerfull are other changes. Great mods, wads and even indie games have been made with g/zdoom but the topic is the original doom movement. In that context people use mostly prboom + or chocolate doom.

PMI is mortgage insurance, which you do not have to pay with 20% down. You may have meant PITI (principle, interest, taxes & insurance) which for that example situation would be about $4500/mo.

Even so, assuming your mortgage is fixed rate, your payments don't change regardless of the value of your home. Whether it's worth $1 today or $10MM today, it only matters what you paid. Like the other commenter said, it's a paper loss.

Does enabling two-factor authentication impact the ability to use "Find My iPhone" (when presumably the phone itself is your second factor)?
That's a good point actually, very open to discussion on lots of things.

The main usecase is that I need quite often to do something like +1 or *10 and having to write {{count|add:1}} feels really wrong to me.

Maybe having only simple math would be better?

> Europe does not have free speech.

Nonsense. Of course it does. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Article_10_of_the_European_Con... . Eg see [0] for a (successful) ECtHR case in France under A.10 relating to a similar no-insulting-heads-of-state law.

My guess it the only reason this one is still on the books is that it's almost never enforced (though IANAL). The ECHR doesn't examine laws proactively - someone has to bring a case - but then, that's the same as the US (and in the US it's apparently not unusual for legislators to attempt to pass laws they know will be overturned once actually used[1]...)

> In myriad ways there are restrictions on speech

Sure. Same as in the US: [2]. The restrictions in that article seem broadly in the same areas as those in A.10(2).

I'm not denying that US free speech protection is stronger than Europe - lines are drawn in a slightly different place: the US has stronger protection of free speech, Europe has stronger protection of privacy, among other things. But this is a long way from "Europe does not have free speech".

So after four years of comments on Hacker News I've finally posted my first negative-voted comment.

Am I right in interpreting this to mean it's perfectly acceptable for the grandparent to write something insulting by saying :
"all kosher food does is restrict consumer choice to products sanctioned by a small religious mafia perceiving a tax on every products they "authorize"."

But pointing out the inherent hypocrisy in the grandparents post as per my comment above is out-of-bounds?

Thanks for explaining what Jupyter is. This is certainly useful since it's hard to find this information from the original link.
I've heard a few before: "hypothesis contrary to fact", "what if" fallacy, and "counterfactual fallacy". None of the names are really great and none of them seem to be particularly common but I've never seen any better names for it or any used more commonly.
Spot on with the too large / too small argument.

I think the key point you allude to here is that there is nothing sacred about 50 states or their boundaries.

The article suggests exactly the parent's argument: decentralize power back to the states (and redraw the boundaries so the states make sense).

I think that's actually essential in making this possible. If consumers could walk away from their ISP, then if that ISP actually started throttling Netflix, all of those consumers would leave for an ISP that didn't do that.

So much This. ISPs could also advertise "we pass subsidies on from our preferred partners (web businesses) to you. [fine print: traffic with non-preferred partners is deprioritized]." That's not a value proposition that everyone, or even many, would accept but it's one that should be permitted and subject to (adequately competitive) market forces rather than regulation.
I'm still confused, because in one sentence, you talk about affluence bringing luxury high-rises, while in a later sentence, you talk about activist art students who want to preserve graffiti.

Are the high-rises whose removal the students decry not the luxury ones, or is it a different group of activist students from those who like graffiti who are the ones who want to keep the luxury high-rises?

Or are the activist art students supporters of both luxury high-rises and graffiti? I'm confused :)
1977. The intensity data was the recording according to the standard of the times.
"After an email exchange that lasted over two months, “Brian” informed us on August 1, 2015, that the ability to share documents via short URLs “appears by design” and “does not currently warrant an MSRC case.”

What is it with these large companies ignoring serious security issues while paying attention to smaller ones? I reported something to Facebook that was a moderate privacy concern and got a bug bounty. A few months later, I discovered that I could make Facebook falsely report the domain that a posted URL goes to, and they denied that it was even a bug. So I could share a URL on mydomain.com, customize the contents of the share posting ("Obama says he's going to nuke Russia"), and Facebook would show users in the post that the link goes to Whitehouse.gov or CNN.com or any other domain I choose.
This still works perfectly.

These companies really need to take a look at the analytical abilities of those they are employing to screen bug reports.

This is a good analogy, but I think your takeaway is wrong.

In software development, we change the team structure if we find that multiple teams do the same thing for the same customers. So, in this case, redraw the state boundaries.
All that pervasive unbreakable encryption does is make it possible to whisper in someone's ear at a distance. You right there said there is a tool for that situation:"the government can subpoena me and force me to tell a court what you said."

That is, you said it is a "game changer," and not a game-changer. You have to issue subpoenas, conduct depositions, etc.

> I think we have a far too private system as it stands

Its a public private mix. Not nearly as private as say the restaurant industry, tech industry, or even airlines industry, etc. Definitely very high up there on the 'regulated' scale as well. It's funny you admit the government is inefficient, but want it to run all of healthcare? Why? What is fundamentally so hard about having a competitive healthcare economy?

You bring up a good point about information asymmetries. I think private audit and review companies would do very well in this information economy. Perhaps the government if anything could disseminate this information freely.

ECU perhaps needs to be handled different though the majority of healthcare spending is not ECU.
