Two EU Countries Battle Each Other Musically
After German rap group released their song "Holland" this past May, they scored a major hit in their homecountry by making fun of their Dutch neighbors and all the stereotypes that German people usually associate with the Dutch. Considering the fact that Germany managed to qualify (and make it to the semi-finals) of Euro 2016, this tongue-in-cheek music video hurt just that little bit more.

But the Dutch would not be the Dutch if they didn't manage to retaliate properly, which is what they did with the release of "Deutschland." Sung/rapped by (as of yet anonymous) Roastveen and accompanied with a music video with a very high rewatchability factor, "Deutschland" flips the original concept around and mocks all things German, including Heidi Klum, Octoberfest, Nena's 99 Luftballons and Germany's problems with the refugee crisis.

In such violent and dark times, it's good to know that some neighborly love can be exchanged through some friendly competitive rap - jokes and all!

Nowadays the word 'coach' usually applies to athletics, but it dates to the 1830s, when Cambridge University started awarding math degrees by competitive examination. A coach was someone who gave you a straight, smooth ride to your degree, just like a horse-drawn coach on one of the new paved roads that began appearing in England around that time. So coaching was hip.

The high scorers on the exam were a Who's Who of British science in the 1800s. In 1854, for example, the second highest scorer was James Clerk Maxwell, the greatest physicist of the century, who gave humankind its first look at a fundamental law of nature. The guy who beat Maxwell became a coach and spent the rest of his life teaching people how to do well on the exam.

The rkt process model does makes a lot more sense than Docker. The combo of Kubernetes + Docker has always seemed a little awkward to me; K8s just wants to control containers, and something lower-level than Docker would fit its needs better.

Looking forward to trying it out!

Maybe you are right, but this morning the first think I saw about the terror attack was on HN via Feedly, and I was very surprised to see that all articles were flagged, including one about Facebook activating a special crisis mode, which stroke me as strange since recently I have seen lots of politics around here.
Not sure if this has been done before

Seems similar to TinyPress: https://tinypress.co/
I've seen a few things:
1. "Follow me on instagram/twitter for more pics!" Getting real followers for fake social media accounts.

2. "I want to give you a sexy show, go this website!" Driving traffic to paid webcam sites.

3. "Friend me on facebook!" Similar to one, but datamining for ad networks could be the real motivation here.

4. "I want to fly out to meet you, but I can't afford a plane ticket!" Old school scamming money.

Anyone seen others?
It's definitely more strongly regional and more distinctive than other places I've traveled in America. The only place that seems to compare for uniqueness is California.
Yeah, this is a huge misconception. You pretty much need to be able to learn the language to successfully live in a country long term.

Even if you can find a job in English (which is possible, things like startups or video game developers are sometimes in English), you will need the local language to talk to shop keepers, repair men, salespeople, any government worker, etc. Basically all the day to day bullshit errands you need to do are only doable in the local language.

Nordic countries are probably OK with English only since a huge % of the population speaks English. Everywhere else though, no chance. The English speaking % is far too low.

> The type of people to exclaim "I've never done anything wrong in my entire life"

If anyone ever said those words to me, I would do my best to never, ever, interact with them. It's prime facia a false statement, and anyone who can say it with conviction (assuming they are an adult) must necessarily be a liar.

I've done plenty of things wrong, I've broken the law countless times (which, really is nothing special, literally everyone has, but I've done it knowingly and willfully), I've inadvertently burned bridges (figuratively, of course) and offended people deeply that I never meant to.

No one is perfect, anyone who says (and appears to believe) that they are is a menace to society.

Ataturk (first President of Turkey) was an officer and fiercely wanted Turkey to be secular. It seems more or less a rule for the Military to force elections if the head of state gets too Islamic.

> The military has had a record of intervening in politics. Indeed, it assumed power for several periods in the latter half of the 20th century. It executed coups d'état in 1960, in 1971, and in 1980. Most recently, it maneuvered the removal of an Islamic-oriented prime minister, Necmettin Erbakan, in 1997.

> On 27 April 2007, in advance of 4 November 2007 presidential election, and in reaction to the politics of Abdullah Gül, who has a past record of involvement in Islamist political movements and banned Islamist parties such as the Welfare Party, the army issued a statement of its interests. It said that the army is a party to "arguments" regarding secularism; that Islamism ran counter to the secular nature of the Turkish Republic, and to the legacy of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. The Army's statement ended with a clear warning that the Turkish Armed Forces stood ready to intervene if the secular nature of the Turkish Constitution is compromised, stating that "the Turkish Armed Forces maintain their sound determination to carry out their duties stemming from laws to protect the unchangeable characteristics of the Republic of Turkey. Their loyalty to this determination is absolute.

If you regularly watch movies at all, you are far better off spending a few hours calibrating by reading real reviews of movies you actually saw. You then can find 2-3 reviewers who match your tastes (pick a few cause nobody will match exactly). Then skip the stupid point systems and go straight to, ya know, actually reading reviews.

As Ebert said, if a reviewer did their job, you should be able to tell if you'd like the movie or not, independent of whether or not the reviewer liked it.

I was a fairly active real user of Tinder for a while. Though, I noticed that a lot of my matches were from Spam bots who were trying to get me to go to malicious links or promote businesses. I wasn't overly annoyed by them and would report those bots to Tinder as "feels like spam". I felt like this was a known part of the ecosystem and my bots didn't feel too burdensome or evil.

The line that I drew at the time was that, aside from the initial match, the bots were never going to engage in any on-going way with the matches. So the bots could receive messages from matches, but would never send messages or post Moments (which was a feature at the time to effectively message all of your matches with a photo).
I see this problem (if my analysis is correct) as a kind of “we are all equal, some more than others“, which is at the root of most problems around the world.

Why wouldn't I raise the issue? The site is otherwise pleasant and interesting.
It's really something to watch how absolutely angry men on reddit are about Ghostbusters. It's kind of beyond words for me how incredibly childish and petty it makes them appear, while simultaneously giving fuel to the notion that there is a surge of misogyny in reaction to things labeled as "feminism", as if a female-reboot of Ghostbusters ought to be deemed an act of 'feminism'. Kind of similar to the backlash of outright racism on reddit that happens everytime the nation has to talk about racial issues as the result of yet more violence against or involving minorities.

It's like, maybe if you weren't screeching about and denigrating feminism and anti-racism efforts... people wouldn't perceive you as being anti-woman and anti-minority.

Sorry, probably a bit political, but it's more or less the phenomena that the article is actually tip-toeing around. (And yes, there have been campaigns organized on reddit to astroturf Ghostbuster ratings.)
The overlooked thing about this is that these gender surpluses would work for you even better in person. Despite online seemingly covering a larger spectrum of people you wouldn't otherwise meet, in person you can create scenarios with multiple people without competition.
For some reason the equality seems to hold for most applications with a complex user interface. Reasons may include that it is a cross discipline thing that requires skills/people such as interaction designers, artists, technical writers, linguists etc that are less common than developers in the OSS community. It could also be that good interface design benefits from a centralized decision process which can be a bad fit for OSS that is usually too incremental and democratic for radical design changes. Normally there is no money for things like paid UI testing/focus groups.

That said, there is great free software with good UI/UX too - only they are more or less always backed by a large corporation.

"With China, [Americans] are still filled with this funny disdain, that it is about cheap and crappy stuff, including about cheap and crappy food"

Because until very recently, it HAS been cheap and crappy food in America. "Chinese food" has traditionally meant the chop suey that you take out from Dragon Inn (and in many areas, it STILL means that).

I grew up with a severe dislike for Chinese food. It tasted like I was literally eating out of a garbage can. The first time I ate at a Chinese friend's place I was very leery, but it turned out of course that the Western idea and the Chinese idea of "Chinese food" could not be more divergent. Good food is good food, but Chinese cuisine has a long Western history to live down.

To this day I still cringe whenever someone suggests Chinese cuisine, because I never know which kind they have in mind.

> Robert Mario Fano (2008), Scholarpedia, 3(10):6648.

So he was 90 years old when he wrote that. That is really cool, especially in the context of this section of the obituary:

> In many respects, Fano was one of the world’s first open-source advocates. He frequently described computing as a public utility that, like water or electricity, should be accessible to all. His writings in the 1960s often discussed computing’s place in society, and predated today’s debates about the ethical implications of technology.

> “One must consider the security of a system that may hold in its mass memory detailed information on individuals and organizations,” he wrote in a 1966 paper he co-authored with Corbató. “How will access to the utility be controlled? Who will regulate its use?”

The demand-side explanation offered isn't ludicrous on its face, but I expect supply-side explanation is more the direct mechanism.

Sure, it has to do with economics, but not so much taste being driven by what people eat in rich and militarily powerful countries, but the fact that rich and stable countries don't have huge numbers of people that are very skilled in their cuisine emigrating to the US and opening restaurants, saturating the market and driving market-clearing prices down. Whereas Mexico, for instance, does.

Mexican food isn't cheap in the US because people look down on Mexico, it's cheap because there are so many people making it, and so many that could be making it.

"Real" Filipino food is street food, and pretty unappetizing. Offal, adidas, sausage made of who knows what, betamax, roast/fried pig feet/ears, brain, etc, all served with a side of white rice and washed down with san miguel.

That being said, lechon, oxtail stew and sinigang are awesome, but not what most Filipino people eat on a regular basis.

Social media blocked in Turkey during reported coup attempt

In NYC it was mostly what I referred to as hooker-bots. They really made no effort to disguise the automation and were effectively just free advertisements. I did run into a couple bots that were at least trying to pass which was weird since I couldn't figure out their purpose. If you're looking to avoid (or create/market) sleazy dating bots bumble seems mostly sentient.
It sounds like many social media sites are being blocked in Turkey (by which side, I have no idea). Since I doubt HN is on their list: If anyone in Turkey is reading this and wants me to relay messages to their friends and family outside of Turkey, I'll be happy to do so.

(Tor may also be a solution for some people, but for all I know that might get blocked too.)
The secret to good Chinese food in the US is to find the hole in the wall Chinese grocery and make it yourself. I continually find amazing things at great prices.

Twenty-five years ago, there were commercial C environments that supported interactive coding close to what you got with Lisp or Smalltalk. There was Instant-C, Safe-C, RUN/C, CodeCenter, and a few others. The whole genre died out in the mid 1990s for various reasons. The most popular and powerful system was CodeCenter. People wanted to keep using it, but the developers couldn't handle the increased complexity of supporting C++, so they just gave up around 1996.
I was unaware that Jalopnik did more than report on car-related news.

Historically, the Turkish military has been a sort of check on the democratically elected government. If the government gets too secular or gets packed with fundamentalists, they seize power and institute new elections.

When Erdogan got into power, he must have feared that his new fundamentalist policies might put him in danger so he tried to weaken the military leadership as much as possible. Looks like he didn't weaken it enough.

If history is repeating itself, and this succeeds, then this is a good thing for those in Turkey who are secular and love the cultural connections to Europe.

There's no crisp boundaries for off-topic, just lose guidelines. For general news, it's quite easy for slight variations in the details of the article or its presentation, timing, and context -- even if they are in a superficially similar category -- to have significant impacts on opinions as to whether they offer a hook for HN style discussions, a particular nexus to the interest-focus of HN distinct from just general news, etc.

Also, timing can affect what subset of the userbase is voting/flagging.
I'm less scared of a coup than I am of Erdogan turning into a Putinesque figure. I know strongmen are fashionable right now, but I don't really like that trend.

The military and old elite in Turkey are very corrupt, but they've never squashed freedom of press the same way Erdogan has. If you believe in personal liberty, the military is actually better than the democratically elected strongman, however absurd that sounds.
