That means if I am a pastafarian (Google it if you don't know it - and yes, at least in Germany it is a approved religion) I can't put a noodle riddle on my head (because it is religious clothing for pastafarians) - or can NOBODY, just because it is religious clothing? And yes, you might not believe it, but in Germany there is a ruling that you are allowed to take your passport photo with a noodle riddle on your head because it is your religious headwear...

I think we should throw all this religion in the toilet and flush.

The difference in Turkey has generally been that the military has been very clear about not holding on to power for very long. There's still every reason to be vary, but so far, for a military that has carried out multiple coups Turkey's military has demonstrated an unusual degree of commitment to voluntarily return the country to civilian rule.
Fantastic idea! One day I hope this will be replaced by me walking away (with my phone) for more than X meters. Meanwhile, this seems like a great solution. What else do you use the ubikey for?

I think the difference is that the French perceive obvious religious clothing similarly to someone wearing a T-shirt saying "I vote republican/democrat" in huge letters -- though I don't know, maybe that'd be considered fine too in the US (US schools, that is)?

I see it as clearly unnecessary/voluntary (so it's quite different from being gay like in your example), so it's an attempt to advertise, which leaves a bad taste in a place like a school.
I am extremely sympathetic to this view as an American, but I think it is worthwhile to think of this from a native Frenchman's perspective. There has been a mass influx of "foreign" Muslim/Islamic peoples there over the past twenty-odd years that do not share western secular values for the most part, and are happy to impose their own views on the native population. If you were a native Frenchman, or a person in a similar situation in Europe, how would you feel about women wearing the hajib? I don't think it is that black and white.
No. Where did you see (or think you saw) me say that?
I would say historically, particularly after the French Revolution, France had a few missteps with democracy in general, but I can see your objection.
Everyone take a deep breath.

The ban in France is for face-covering only, and it applies to anybody (male/female).

There are serious reasons for this, both cultural- and security-based.

Head scarves are allowed in France, to the best of my knowledge.

EDIT:

The law bans "the wearing of symbols or garb which show religious affiliation in public primary and secondary schools" [1]

So you can wear a head scarf as long as it does not imply religious affiliation. As a matter of fact, head scarves have been present in high fashion (Azzedine Alaia,etc) for a while.

[1] Wikipedia: The bill passed France's national legislature and was signed into law by President Jacques Chirac on 15 March 2004 (thus the technical name is law 2004-228 of 15 March 2004) and came into effect on 2 September 2004, at the beginning of the new school year. The full title of the law is "loi no 2004-228 du 15 mars 2004 encadrant, en application du principe de laïcité, le port de signes ou de tenues manifestant une appartenance religieuse dans les écoles, collèges et lycées publics" (literally "Law #2004-228 of March 15, 2004, concerning, as an application of the principle of the separation of church and state, the wearing of symbols or garb which show religious affiliation in public primary and secondary schools").

Hi! From your profile it looks like you are recruiting engineers. Sorry but I am not available.

If there's something else you wanted to discuss, feel free to email me -- my email address is easy to find.
i heard something similar, but it was a law regulating how often a prison could feed lobster to inmates.
Let me give you guys some more inside details:

From the start it was clear that something was weird: they weren't enough soldiers to make a real coup, only a few hundred soldiers a few helicopters, tanks, etc... And it seems that they knew it and did it despite that. By the way they even bombed the house where the President was supposed to be...

The coup attempt was made by members of a religious group named "Nurcu" leaded by Fetullah Güllen, who is in exile in the U.S.A. ...

It was known that members of this group had infiltrated every possible area of the government (possible, legal branch, army,etc...)

Yes this group was the biggest ally of Erdogan during more than 10 years and it is mainly because of Erdogan that these people infiltrated so well every aspect of the government. They together imprisoned falsely reporters, policemen and soldiers claiming they were attempting to make a coup. They even imprisoned the former Chief of Staff. And those idiots in the AKP government and people who supported Erdogan were cheering them because they were getting rid of "secular" forces in the army. Now irony is these same people are doing exactly what they were supposedly trying to prevent: Make a Coup.

The Turkish army was always saying that the biggest danger for the country was religious backwardness(irtica) and unfortunately it has proven right again.

Although they were shots fired to civilians and to cops, the civilian crowds didn't hurt the few soldiers on the streets they grab them and handed them to the police. The situation is getting better, the Chief of Staff was saved (he was hostage by these people) the commanding officers are calling these soldiers back to their base to be arrested. Most of them are coming back. They even shot a helicopter("rebel") with an F-16.

I think the situation will settle in maximum 24H.

Unfortunately I think this will give Erdogan more power and leverage on the long run and drive the country deeper in insanity. Turkey is on its way to become the "Pakistan" to Syria/Irak, the Afghanistan of the middle-east.

For the better or the worse the only thing keeping Turkey from being another middle-eastern country was(unfortunately) the army.
Not head, face.
100% agree, but this is an epoch where even the most mediocre dev is capable of having a long and fairly successful career. I've worked with some huge systems filled with garbage code, and I've never seen a comment anywhere in there that said "the people who wrote this have all been fired."

If the end user experience is anything better than catastrophic and it's making a profit, it's very hard to make anyone care. At best, there will be a big cleanup project that takes it from being totally incoherent and inefficient to being merely very stupid, but in a fairly consistent way.
In Bangladesh, popular support led the government to throw away the secularism enshrined in the country's original constitution and declare Islam the state religion.

Even in "modern times" democracy and liberalism are not necessarily (or even often) co-extensive.

> However, from here in the UK, France seems strangely, even oddly intolerant. Muslim religious dress is banned in public.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_ban_on_face_covering

It was widely debated. I'm still not sure what was the best thing to do.

At some point, you also have to ask how far we can tolerate things in the name of religion. Just because something is of religious nature doesn't mean that it has to be accepted.
The starting point of this in France is the idea that we should throw all this religion in the toilet and flush.

The principle governing French secularism - laïcité [1] - has its origin in freeing people from being subjected to the influence of the Catholic church. It's a such a direct reaction to religion being pushed onto people in the public sphere by putting in place restrictions aimed at severely curtailing religious influence in government and education.

In this context, it's worth noting that Turkish secularism was explicitly modelled by Ataturk on French laïcité. E.g. Turkey, like France, is constitutionally a secular republic.

You're too paranoid. I don't yet even have the ability to downvote people; my rating is too low.

> the same fallacy

Gee thanks. We're not just in disagreement, I'm the idiot who can't reason correctly.

I think your logic is unreasonable. I already said why; google isn't living up to what a hypothetical "reasonable person" would expect -- such a person wouldn't expect deletion with no recourse.

And if it happened to you, obviously you would change your attitude about what is and is not reasonable; no one wants their stuff deleted. So arguing about it seems possibly disingenuous, regardless of the fine details.

> You're requiring that Google meet an extreme defintion of safety that is beyond what a reasonable person would expect

Actively deleting files is included in the definition of "safety"? I think not.

However again, my main point isn't whether the above person is correct, it's that his point is reasonable enough that it is uncalled for to say he's arguing a strawman.
Good explanations! As I recall this stuff is usually introduced as part of classes along the boundary between basic and higher math, so having a mini-book about it seems a bit unconventional -- but it's a really good idea. Nice straightforward presentation. Very readable.
> Making wildly ridiculous claims that amount to "microservice are silly" (my paraphrase) when really they've only managed to successfully sandbox applications

No, you don't understand the Sandstorm infrastructure. Sandstorm abstracts the data from the application via the Cap'N Proto protocol, so the user, not the application, is in full control of the application data. The common data format makes all sorts of interesting isolation policies possible, like containerizing internal application state. There is very little precedent for this sort of feature.
Ask HN: Cheap databases for new projects?
I looking after cheap databases for when I make new projects. The are often small projects with no intention often to make money, BUT I really don't want to host a database myself. The reasons is many, but most importantly backups! You have to extremely careful to watch database cron jobs to be sure the aren't failing.

The definition on cheap can be many, but my idea is that it only cost $1 per gigabyte stored or less and that I can only $1 dollar from the start.

I know it is extremely cheap, but there is already a lot of cheap PHP hosting providers that provide hosting and database, but it is always mysql and nothing else and there "limit" on the database is always unclear (connections, size, table count, user count, etc.) Heroku provides postgres for free, but only 10k rows and then goes directly to $9 dollars.

GCloud new SQL is awesome, and it only cost $7,5 + storage.

I know there are some NoSQL providers that gives 0,5G for free, but I am not interested in nosql, but why aren't there similar providers for SQL?

Am I one of a kind to want this?

I'll always favor eating real Chinese food than American food. You go to a decent American restaurant, for $20-$30+ you get a plate for yourself. For $15 at a real Chinese restaurant, you get enough food for yourself and share with another. The food comes out in mere minutes, even in a busy restaurant. Chinese food is meant to be shared. You go to a western restaurant, you order a plate for one person.

A real Chinese restaurant has round tables, so everyone is equidistant from the food and can share among each other. You don't 'plate' a dish. You cook everything and put it out there for everyone. Food is about the taste, the freshness and quality.

You go there for bonding with friends and family. You don't pay dutch. One person pays, and sometimes there's a fight on who pays.

Real Chinese food cannot be expensive, because Chinese people know how to cook and won't go out. So often my aunts, uncles, family friends balk at going out. They can cook just as good, and it's cheaper. I need to drag them out. If it's expensive they'd never go out. You'd end up with food that caters to western taste, because only they would pay for expensive Chinese food.
I participated in my state's math competition, but never made it to the finals. Yet it didn't discourage me from attending college and majoring in math.

I also participated in the music competition, called "solo and ensemble festival." Like the math competitions, music competitions are an artificial environment -- one student in front of a judge, rarely any audience. But in some sense they are "real world" because they mimic the auditions that are very much a real part of a music career, e.g., for getting music scholarships and entry into most orchestras. I never got that far.

Career wise, no. Learning wise, yes, its a step backwards. PHP has nothing new to offer.

If you want to stick to api/backend dev, pick up node, its "async everything" mindset is very hard to turn back from once you become accustomed to it. One big benefit of this would be getting good at javascript, which can help you become a proper full stack dev(browser, and mobile with react-native).

If you want to explore systems programming, or high perf computation, golang is a good option.

Or switch to a completely new area of programming, like data science, where python has a stronghold for now.
> In general, responding to "we have a huge racism issue" with "we actually have a huge classism issue" isn't wrong, but it isn't helpful either.

What if the classism problem is a significant cause of the racism problem? Race and class correlate, so if someone has a problem with a particular class they are going to learn to associate certain races with that class, and their classism issue becomes a racism issue to the outside observer.

The idea is that the monarch cannot really exercise that power arbitrarily. If they try, their legitimacy will be questioned.

But if the parliament does something deeply unpopular with the general public, monarchy offers an escape hatch - essentially, a conduit for that sentiment to reign the parliament in, in a way that is not _technically_ illegitimate.

You probably know this already, but for others: Sandstorm offers free wildcard certs if you'll settle for a subdomain of sandcats.io.

And because I'm sure other people will ask, here's the FAQ on why we need the wildcard certs: https://docs.sandstorm.io/en/latest/administering/wildcard/#...
If they just added a non-crazy-URL mode (I know "it's for your own good") then you could use regular certs.

I'm an architect, and personally I've yet too meet an architect who thinks that way. The opposite is true, most architects think the clients and various stakeholders are overly invested in aesthetic considerations and aren't properly educated in other issues. There are significant bodies of architectural theory dedicated to repudiating overly-aesthetic concerns.

I work as part of a research lab in a large architecture firm where we are working on ways to communicate the importance of energy efficiency, housing affordability, adequate daylighting, material health etc to the clients, and deliver computational tools to architects, urban designers, interior designers and urban planners so that they can being working with these issues. I have never encountered a situation where someone has opposed or been reluctant to engage these concerns.

The monarch can do all those things, but in reality if she tried to dismiss a PM or refuse to sign a bill, it would be a matter of days or weeks before the monarchy ceased to be an institution.
Deliberately timing coups for when the standing leader is on vacation is actually not all that uncommon, because it makes it possible to contain them under pretense of normalcy. E.g. Gorbachev in 1991, where they basically locked him up in his Crimean residence.
If the data structures in memory don't fit the new code, I suspect that's a compiler bug.
> The monarch is just another citizen - another random human - who just happened to be born into a particular family

Nope. The monarch is someone who has been heavily trained in diplomacy and politics, and has a great network of political connections and the ability to speak with effect to powerbrokers. Whether or not the monarch is morally good is a different argument, but they are mostly definitely not interchangeable with any other citizen picked at random. The same is true of politicians in general - you need political skill, a support network, and basic knowledge of how the system works. Sadly, you don't need administrative skill...

It's weird also that you're from Ireland, and haven't picked up on the general UK arrangement between the government and the royals: "You don't tell us what to do, and we don't tell you to sod off". Liz has been famously apolitical in particular. You're right that no-one believes that she has a divine right to rule... and she doesn't actually rule. She doesn't declare law, or negotiate trade treaties.

Disclaimer: I'm an Australian who wouldn't mind getting rid of the Queen, but who also knows that zero would change politically from that - the 'governor general' here would simply be renamed the 'president', and power would still remain with the prime minister + cohort. Liz doesn't even pick the governor general - it's 'suggested' to her, and she allows it. Like the UK government, if she started to kick up a fuss, it'd be "well, bye!".
Just an idea: The only windowed applications I use are a terminal (st), my text editor (Atom), and a browser (Firefox). Suppose I switched to HyperTerm, Atom, and Chromium.

Absolutely, but having an audio recording of a guy in the 40s saying "Nahhhh" really makes you feel it.
Yep. Success in math contests is correlated with success in producing mathematical research/getting tenure/measure what you will. But if you sample math professors, you won't find that most of them were problem solving champions. (A large minority perhaps, and probably more in number theory.) The common factor is more likely that they really like doing mathematics, and have the skills needed to suceed in secondary aspects of the job.
