Here's why BoJo's face, sad or smiley, doesn't matter one bit:

The foreign ministers of the EU’s six founding members, however, demanded Britain start proceedings “as soon as possible” to avoid a long and potentially damaging period of uncertainty.

The Dutch foreign minister, Bert Koenders, told the Volkskrant: “We can’t have the kind of dithering Boris Johnson is suggesting. Everyone wants clarity: people, businesses, financial markets.”

France’s foreign minister, Jean-Marc Ayrault, urged Cameron to step down soon, saying: “A new prime minister must be designated – that will take a few days. But there is a certain urgency.” He added: “We have to give a new sense to Europe, otherwise populism will fill the gap.”

The rest of the EU is not going to take this shit lightly when it is bad for business and it's also threatening to overturn the status quo and give a run for power to the Farages of the continent. If Boris, or whoever becomes the next PM, decides to procrastinate, the result will only be even more pain in the disengagement talks.

"There was simply no way it would pass?"

Pretty much - even Farage seemed to be positioning himself for a narrow Remain win (in particular his 52%-48% comments about a second referendum).

British democracy is screwed either way.

Either you have to break the Scotland Act of 1998 to Brexit or you use the Scotland Act of 1998 as an excuse not to Brexit.
I wonder if we should be happy with an organization that pays 55% of UK farmers' income.
Surely, you could vacation easily in other countries also before the EU? I know we Swedes could. Btw, Great Britain is not the only country in the EU that does not use Euros. Sweden doesn't, for example.

Your understanding is incorrect.
This is just one example [0] there are many ways to skim Chip & Pin (EMV[1]) cards, even if you build a card which cannot be cloned through active or passive monitoring of the ICC component you can still perform at least 1 illicit transaction by proxying to it.

The same holds for NFC skimmers which are now becoming more and more relevant and popular especially with the commercial availability of ultra-low-power and ultra-compact wireless SOC's.

If some one was wondering what are things like ESP8266[2] that give you WiFi connectivity with less than 1mW standby draw while being the size of a quarter are good for; if nothing less they are a pretty damn good platform for real time NFC or ICC skimming.

> There's a classical liberal case for Brexit, though, which Gove articulated reasonably well.

I don't know that much about Gove's position, but from what I can tell it has little to do with classical liberalism and a lot more to do with nationalism. The classical liberal case was that the EU is a fundamentally broken organisation and it is beyond reform.

> The media is really playing up this angle. Vote Leave isn't the government and the referendum wasn't a general election where the campaigners campaign on a particular manifesto. There is now more money in the UK budget, where it gets spent is up to the next PM.

But voters treated it as such. It's pretty clear that a sizeable number of voters - probably not enough to change result vote but still perhaps 5% - were registering an anti-government vote. While the next PM might have more money, there will be a major backlash if it doesn't get used to replace EU funding, and the decisions about funding will now be debated in London, not Brussels.

Interesting that the article doesn't mention the fact that Rural Metro (the second largest commercial ambulance service in the country) was recently bought by Envision Healthcare Holdings, the parent company of American Medical Response (AMR), the largest commercial ambulance service in the country. Rural Metro operations across the country are now in the process of getting their green/yellow ambulances painted AMR red.

It remains to be seen what impact this has on EMS in the US, but many folks in the industry were surprised that the sale went through as easily as it did. They were already #1 and #2 by a wide margin, the new combined company is staggeringly huge, with no real national competitor (granted, it does have local competition in most markets).
We seem to be in complete agreement. Personally, I do not conceal carry; however, my point was to state why some might want to do so.
Almost entirely anecdotal evidence.

The vast majority votes came from old people. And they really do want to leave.

Sounds like the residents/town didn't do enough to dissuade bears.

I've been to Jasper, Canada, which is in the Rockies surrounded by forest, and the countermeasures they take to stop bears from coming to town are crazy. All garbage cans have special bear-proof lids, there is tons of education, etc.

And it mostly works-- some bears come, but they don't perceive the town as a source of food.

This looks like it is about a similar area (Russia's far-east tiaga) as the Tiger book by John Vaillant. Similar story though with much different results: human activity basically drove a particular tiger to very wild and dangerous behavior.
"Not working" means not assigning the correct probabilities to the outcomes over time with regard to the information available. The article mentions some of the biases which could cause this.

Of course this is difficult to measure, because there are not enough natural experiments (i.e. 100x Brexit) and there are many variables at play here.

We'll have to wait for papers with regards to Brexit + predicition markets for a more detailed analiysis, but still, for the time my trust in prediction markets is down a bit.
52% of voters from all parties were behind his side. 52% of people voting for a brexit doesn't translate into 52% of the seats in the House of Commons going to a Johnson-led Conservative party.

Edit: And it certainly doesn't translate into 52% of people wanting him to win in 2020. If he negotiates a poor deal with the EU and/or 'forgets' about a few central 'Leave' arguments, he'll be in all sorts of trouble.

Why do we have to stop trading with Great Britain because they leave the EU?
> Norway is a huge oil exporter.

Huge?

Norway's export of crude oil and gas in 2015 ( 450 billion krone ) is equivalent to about £40 billion. Which puts them somewhere in the teens in terms of export scoreboard, behind the UAE.

http://www.norskpetroleum.no/en/production-and-exports/expor...

That's less than four month's worth of the UK's exports to non-EU countries alone ( £25 billion per month, about 52% to non-EU ).

https://www.uktradeinfo.com/Statistics/OverseasTradeStatisti...

And UK oil and gas extraction is about half of that of Norway, so they're not too sluggish there either.
There's a much better and simpler explanation to the 4-months delay.

As shown in Cameron's [white paper on Brexit from last February](https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachm...), the critical part of the exit process is to buy more than 2 years to define the new relationship (article 50 has basically only this period as a hard fact).

The paper does bold that a realistic timeline would be ~10 years. Meaning the UK needs to find bullet points to negotiate additional time... with all the free goodies of being still a "passive" member of the EU.

So they're buying 4 months now. They need this to understand their leverages, friends and foes. Many in Europe will be receptive on avoiding a clash. Merkel right now shows signs of resilience.

Make no mistake: part of the City and tech industry sees a strong potential in Brexit - as long as there is no "free fall" period after 2 years.

Everything will be about buying time.
No it's not that hotel prices are artificially high, they are priced in a completely separate market to residential properties. If there is no regulation on Airbnb rentals, tourists are now competing more in the residential market. This can obviously have an effect on cities.
You replied to a comment saying "That implies that they store plaintext or something reversible." You posted about hashing in a way that implies that comment is wrong. But that comment is completely correct. Taking three characters and hashing it is easily reversible. And then the attacker gets to log in.

The question is not whether on a technical level something got hashed. The question is whether a hash protects the password against brute forcing. And the answer is no.
He had 52% of voters behind him. We don't know what the current percentage is.

And yes I imagine it can't be fun to have to be the one to implement all of this.
Sure, why not? Using "You're just like HITLER!" always seems like a sound argument.

> I'm just surprised to see extremist talk like that on HN.

Except you are the extremist here. If your take-away from me saying that women and men have different experiences about life on this planet is that it's just like what HITLER! said, your argument lacks nuance.
The referendum result is not binding. It is advisory. Parliament is not bound to commit itself in that same direction.

Is this true in UK's legislation?
That's actually not uncommon. Many of the early ambulance services in the US were run by funeral homes, as they already had vehicles capable of moving people lying down.

That being said, Bang's is far from a "Wall Street" operation. Like the vast majority of ambulance companies, it's a pretty small mom n' pop shop.

London did the smallest amount of export trade with the EU of almost any area in the country. The regions that voted leave actually had far more reliance on EU trade.
This is what we use here in Sweden as well. The reason it works is that all inhabitants are given a personal identification number upon birth, that consists of our birthday + 4 digits which are loosely based on where we are born and if we are male/female. This number is unique for every person and is used to register to the BankID service (among other things) and ensures that it is connected to a single individual.

My 45M dollar lesson
Hi Peter,

My name is Gary. I am currently working under a H1B1 visa. My sponsoring company has tried without success to apply the H1B visa for the past three years. The lawyer is advicing that I proceed to applying for the green card.

The lawyer states that at this point, even if I get awarded the h1b visa since the time under the h1b1 will be counted towards the h1b, I will not have enough time using the H1B to get thru the green card application process

Also during this green card application process, it's advised for me to remain in the US otherwise I will get in complications when entering to with a H1B1 that has a outstanding green card process

I have two questions:
1. Is what she said about the h1b1 time contribution to the h1b true?

2. Is what she said custom complication true?
I'm not even that optimistic.

First, one of the prime exports to the EU is financial services. Major financial flows -- even ones in Euros -- are largely done through London. I can't imagine the remaining countries consenting to allowing that to happen in a non-EU country. Financial services would be excluded from a new agreement. The thing that makes the UK rich is that it was the de facto business and financial capital of the continent, and I don't see how that survives.

Second, the new agreement will need to be approved by every remaining EU country. Some might come on board quickly either because their governments are Euroskeptic (Hungary, Poland) or because they'd rather not upset the current trade balance (Germany) Others have less reason to agree easily. Spain, for instance, wants Gibraltar back and wants money for all of the British retirees its health service is looking after. Ireland will want to be in the driver's seat for any decisions about its land border with the UK. The list goes on. I have a hard time seeing how any of this gets figured out in 2 years.
Use this religiously at work, fantastic tool.
Ideally, you don't even target a low-memory embedded device with C++, let alone process C++ on it.

Anyway, C++ is just a strawman that seems to have been contrived deliberately in order to wreck most of the rational arguments defending "programming languages are easy to parse".

Parsing as programming language is exactly as difficult as the hole we dig ourselves into. Programming language parsing isn't some information processing problem that exists in the world, or in another domain, that computer science is tasked with to solve; it's a problem that computer scientists and software people inflict on themselves.

By making languages hard to parse by machine, we are also making them hard to use by humans. Humans need to parse the language also, and not have a magic oracle for doing so. (Indentation only goes so far, and can tell a lie).

Still, there aren't actually difficult problems in parsing C++. It's more of a "death by a thousand blows". There is just the sheer size of it alone. The C++ parser source file in GCC is larger than some programming language implementations: their parsers, interpreters/compilers and all intrinsic routines combined. It's hard to comprehend the C++ grammar so that you can identify where the ambiguities lie, and form a strategy to deal with them, so as not to be surprised later.

It's a ridiculous practice and storing the passwords in plaintext is deplorable. Banks have your phone number, (which can't simply be changed online) and that is the best additional line of security.

The scrambled on-screen keyboard / n-th character request only poorly "protects" against cases where the attacker has full root access to the customer's machine (how would it protect against phishing?), and in those cases the attacker is likely already capable of making all kinds of payments, even without access to the online banking account. If security is done properly, an attacker can't make direct use of a banking account anyways: creating a new transfer recipient should require phone confirmation by default.
Thank you! It would be great if someone could change the title to make it more understandable without looking the title.
Probably your words would go well on the stump.

I can agree with your final sentence. On Brexit, control will return from unelected, Brussels civil servants (the commissioners) who conduct their deliberations in secret, to elected (is this populist?) members of the British Government.

It must have seemed like a good idea at the time... It must have seemed like a good idea at the time.

Even if Cameron figured that remain would win, he surely knew that the results would be close, that nothing would be actually be settled definitively. OTOH, a narrow win for leave may actually be definitive unless they manage to avoid brexiting somehow.

I doubt many countries will want to leave after what is happening to the Uk now.
Yes, in the UK the parliament has absolute sovereignty[0].

Parliament cannot be overruled by the courts (unlike the US or Australia, where the Supreme/High Court can declare laws invalid), nor is there any requirement for decisions to be taken to a referendum (unlike Australia or Switzerland, where the constitution can't be changed without a vote).

The UK parliament can, in theory, ignore the referendum entirely - although that'd be hugely unpopular if they did.

The FTSE lost 3.15% in a single day while it triggered a massive destruction of European stock markets. The pound arrived to 1.33$, it was never at that level since 1985. 2000 people are being relocated from Morgan Stankey to Dublin or Frankfurt. Pretty much all the other banks are following the same plans. The financial services sector contributes for around 11% of the whole government tax income. Car industry is heading in the same direction. Even worse the uk won't secure any trade deal with Europe because they will want to discourage other nations to follow the same path. The damage to the uk and global economy will be huge, comparable to the 2008 crisis if not even worse. And finally UK has nothing to do with Norway, a country extremely small (only London has double of Norway population) that exports oil.
And it has free access to the European market. Uk, as I said before, very likely won't have it.
Ha! Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.

> There is now more money in the UK budget, where it gets spent is up to the next PM.

That money is worth significantly less since the GBP dropped in value. And if multinational companies start moving their European/EMEA headquarters to Frankfurt, Brussels, Berlin, Dublin etc then there will be significantly lower tax receipts. Of course with the UK rumoured to lose its last AAA credit rating government borrowing costs will be higher as well.

This idea that Brexit somehow meant more money for the UK budget is simply ridiculous. Any disruptive change of this nature always translates to lower growth whilst people adjust.

It's easier to run a more isolated economy when so much of what you offer to others is a commodity.
Not much at all economically? The media has made big deal out of it. But the ftse is still higher than 2 weeks ago.

Political parties are imploding, but that's their own fault for backing one side so heavily.

My worry is the political turmoil will turn into economic troubles. If we elect a solid out leader, who has sensible plan and lays out dates for the plan then a lot of the economic distress will dispear.

The parties are shooting themselves in the foot ATM, by not accepting it and just working out a decent plan. Economic pain at the moment is caused by uncertainty of not knowing whats going on more than anything else.

Your read on the EU's reaction seems weird. (Probably a result of the demonization of Juncker. I mean, I don't like juncker, too, but he is no monster. He is a bog-standard terribly unexciting politician.) You seem to see aggressiveness where there is concern.

If the UK indeed wants to leave (and the responsible and democratic thing to assume, given the vote, is that they do) then its best if they make that clear immediately and set negotiations in progress. That's best for the UK, best for the EU. It creates certainty where now there is none.

If the UK doesn't want to respect the will of its people then they should say so as quickly as possible, too! This is all common sense. We have to all know what to expect from the future to plan for it.

I mean, what the hell do you expect Juncker to do? Beg for the UK to remain?! The EU has, I think, always made it clear that they would respect the UK's sovereignty! Isn't this what this is all about?
