Otherwise they'd have to design replacement regulations for all the bits of law right now covered by EU regulations and implement them all at once at the switch date. This way they can stretch them out and change them at their own pace afterwards. There is likely going to be enough to do as is for law-makers, just to manage the exit cleanly.
Not just actively invoking the fifth, but talking non-specifically to the police, and then choosing not to answer further questions when it becomes clear they are investigating you, is now explicitly evidence of guilt, which is absurd. So the only option is not to speak at all beyond the required minimum.

Also, I'd say this is not the sort of thing one should tldr.
States in the US have different laws (consider income tax rates), and travel inside the US is super cheap, but we don't see people migrating like crazy to avoid taxes or get free stuff from the government.
Does vue use vdom diffing? Last time I played with vue, it crawled when having a large number of bindings. Also it's magical data binding doesn't work very well for arrays of arrays.

Yes, but how do you make sure your Sphinx index is always synchronized with your SQL database, within a short window (a few seconds), and without to much pressure on the database?
I may be seriously out of date, but "order of magnitude" was (c.1990s, and again, pedantically) the nearest power of 10. This is the way we taught it as well (those estimation problems in the first chapter of your physics text). Conversationally it was used more with a "wild ballpark" meaning. We would say "of the order of 3000" but strictly 3000 was of the order of 1000. 5000 was of the order of 10000. Etc.
That was my takeaway as well. If we haven't gotten an answer yet, we never will. Honestly we're spoiled by the internet and way too used to "getting answers" as it is :)

To the authors : It would be really great if you could compare the SCons build system to Tup (with some numbers) - so that I can convince my managers to switch :).
As I see it, the main benefit of deterministic password generation is the convenience of not needing a password database. Indeed, if the scheme is simple and/or portable enough (e.g., PBKDF2) you can implement it from scratch in a minute or two, depending on what software you have handy. The convenience breaks down as you need to maintain additional state: password rotation, site-specific password rules, etc.

Forgiva is based on the premise that a password generation scheme is more secure than a password database. I'm unconvinced in general; from what I see in the FAQ and the Ruby code on Github, even less so for this particular implementation. Spamming the input with an array of whatever OpenSSL algorithms Ruby happens to make available, rather than using a memory hard KDF like scrypt, is a bad smell.
one of two things comes to mind, a certain political candidate will turn their focus towards this issue or that NYT is just getting out ahead of something the US will soon be involved in. I guess the sale of papers is slow and the march of imperialism by the US needs to be pushed again.

Honestly I do not get the NYT. They will push for wars and then turn around and claim to be bamboozled or such. Perhaps there are too many journalist there who think they can just make it happen if they write about it enough
I start products with marketing as the base, that way when it comes to launch day, I have everything I need to start spreading the word about it. So many developers do their launch in reverse; they build their product, and then marketing is left as an afterthought.

So get your Producthunt invite, build some Karma on Hackernews, share useful links on Twitter and gain a following. Create Facebook pages, write tutorials for your product, do Reddit AMAs, do Reddit selfposts, etc

Try to add value as much as possible. All the best marketers I know are doing Youtube screencasts for free and showing their prospects that the company has a genuine passion for the product(s).
This is not objective. Git CMD has terrible flaws that are easily spotted as soon as you start teaching git, because you can see people struggling on difficulties purely created by a bad design.

As a professional trainer, here are the most commong problems:

- git checkout does so many different things. Git check file, git checkout branch, git checkout commit all do different stuff, and don't get me started on the option flags.

- git is context dependant. If you don't know the context, espcially the state your repo is in, you will struggle. And nothing in the tool gives you enough context if you don't explicitly ask for it, which supposes you need to know you need it, and what "it" is.

- branch switching is a hard. see article.

- stashing is dangerous. I've seen many students loosing work with a stash pop requiring a merge which ended badly.

- the whole syntax is impossible to discover, even for very common tasks: git checkout HEAD^ /file/path, git rm --cached, etc.

- git assumes you know what you are doing. Which means it let you destroy history with rebase, loose stuff with stash pop, create detached head, make force push, and all it all put yourself in many situations a beginer won't understand, and above all won't need.

Now I don't blame git designers for those. They made the tool they wanted to use.

What we need is a good UI on top of that. It can solve 99% of those problems.

The github one is not so bad compared to all the ones I tried (yes I tried yours), but it's still not it. What you need is someone that look at the most done tasks and questions, and provide safe, fast buttons for that.

Well you have to understand that when white Europeans complain about "immigrants" what they really mean is "brown people". It's 2016 baby, thinly veiled racism is the name of the game.

Now, this is a UI problem, you don't need to change git, you just need something higher level.

Git is fine the way it is, but it targets power users. Most people don't need that power.

In that sense, gitless has a proper approach even if I don't like the result.
I'm reminded of this famous piece by A.J.P. Taylor:

'Until August 1914 a sensible, law-abiding Englishman could pass through life and hardly notice the existence of the state, beyond the post office and the policeman. He could live where he liked and as he liked. He had no official number or identity card. He could travel abroad or leave his country for ever without a passport or any sort of official permission. He could exchange his money for any other currency without restriction or limit. He could buy goods from any country in the world on the same terms as he bought goods at home. For that matter, a foreigner could spend his life in this country without permit and without informing the police.'

It's hard to believe how much we've given up.

Syria's Constitution makes the country a single party system. Assad is a dictator. There's nothing democratic about its government. It's a family dictatorship. The people wanted their ouster, Assad refused to go and lit the stables on fire in a huge fuck you to the whole country.
I tend to agree with you that most people don't need that power but I think the problem is just that it IS a CLI interface, not that it's a particularly bad one. A GUI is the perfect tool to deal with discoverability and providing an easier interface for non-technical users. A CLI wrapper is just making things more confusing. I don't really understand what problem gitless seems to be solving...
> Each country is interested in immigration that serves its interests

A lot of immigration policies only serve the interest of a particular group or a particular industry. I don't know how to make an objective count on either side though.
Conceptually it is the same.

Many sites do refuse to serve content on detecting Ad blocking but because you're not making a "copy" and storing it for later use, the websites can't sue you - only refuse to serve. If you "hack" the refusal to serve, they could potentially sue but generally won't bother given the economics.

In this case, downloading the offline copy gives them a leg to sue - and even then it is more economical to go after the enabling website.

Nokia just collects licensing fees from this. The main force behind this is Foxconn who wants to reduce its dependency on Apple.

HMD global incensed the brand and sells and markets the phones. Foxconn is manufacturing the phones and also behind the funding. Nokia has seat in the board and and it gives HMD global access to Nokia patents and R&D that comes out from Nokia Technologies.

Is That Cappuccino You’re Drinking Really a Cappuccino?
The UK has obviously seen a lot of debate about immigration recently, around the Brexit referendum. I've often felt like non-EU immigration was the elephant in the room during all this.

'Leave' voters have often been portrayed as racist bigots by liberal 'Remain' voters. (I'm one of the latter, and I've been guilty of this myself at times).

But if we extend the same logic to the whole world, isn't the EU basically a racist organisation? Why should a French, German or Romanian arbitrarily have special rights to enter my country, while an Indian, Mexican or Nigerian is subjected to ever harsher visa rules?

I don't know the answer, but I don't think it's possible to make the liberal case for EU freedom of movement without being something of a hypocrite. And I say this as a (confused) Remain voter.

EDIT: Before anyone says, I know there is more to the EU debate than just immigration, and that not all Remainers are liberal/lefty, just as Leavers are not all right wing. But there's no denying that immigration was the main issue on many (most?) voters minds.
Here:

“I saved lives because I can’t deal with unnecessary deaths — I just can’t,” he told me. “All humans are equal, whatever their origins, their beliefs, their skin color,” he later added. “There are no superiors, no inferiors. That is not acceptable for me.”

He describes his work as "saving lives" in every case, as if every passport he ever made was for someone running from persecution, as if every case for 30+ years was as black and white as WW2.

Yet the article also says "He went on to forge papers for people in practically every major conflict of the mid-20th century" and that he did it full time. That doesn't sound very discerning to me. Unless you're going to claim that 20th century conflicts were all a simple matter of good vs evil which could be immediately assessed.

He can claim whatever he likes about his life and how he always chose the side of the angels in every single conflict - there is presumably no good way to check the veracity of his claims. But color me skeptical.
>How would this data be held and who would see it or have access to it?

Same way as its currently held - by the various governments with (limited) agreements in place to to check each other's databases. Its not that big a leap to have a unified system in place I think. Or at least starting with the 1st world countries.

Not a fan of big government, but this is an area where I think streamlining things would help.

>European countries already issue biometric passports that require you to provide your fingerprints

Yeah got one of those. The fingerprints aren't actively used at borders though - just facial recognition.

An Unusual Approach to Improve Your Ability to Focus
Immigration is a huge issue. It implies tremendous demographic and resource management, logistic, cultural chocks, including educational challenges.

Of course nations want to control borders. If you don't, you can't deal with the population flow and all of the above. And you need to deal with the above. Just hoping everything will be ok if you don't think about it is like hoping schools will be ok if we don't think about it.

I think "to avoid taxes or get free stuff from the government" was an essential condition on what you just quoted. And for what it's worth I think I agree -- I don't think I know anyone who has moved to a state mainly for tax reasons. (Though I do know people who have avoided moving to California, allegedly because of taxes.)

Though maybe the fact that people can move to take advantage of state giveaways, is a big constraint on the way they're currently designed? What conditions does Alaska put on its Permanent Fund payments?
That's what my second post linked above addresses.
I think it does affect the 'incompressibility of most strings' result.
I'm fine with not rehashing the argument though, unless you're keen to do so :)
It's simply a replacement of informal barriers with formal ones, plus compensation of the lowering of travel and communication costs due to technology: someone who traveled abroad in the XIXth century was either well-off so he would pass any currently existing barriers easily, or really really needed it so he would do it, too. With international air ticket worth less than a good meal, some other barrier had to be constructed or all modern nations would be quickly razed by influx of billions destitute immigrants.
> This discussion is synonymous with whether countries should even have borders. If borders aren't policed, they may as well not even exist.

Is this an argument against the discussion? That (whether countries should even have borders) seems like a reasonable question to ask. Nonetheless, borders seem to have existed effectively for a long time without the aid of passports. From the article:

> Indeed, for much of the 19th century, as an International Labour Organisation report stated in 1922:

> > Migration was generally speaking, unhindered and each emigrant could decide on the time of his departure, his arrival or his return, to suit his own convenience.

(Also, I'm not sure it's so obviously true that not requiring passports is the same as not policing borders.)

Do People Really Want to Be Monitored? Swiss Vote for More Surveillance
Also hours of works per week and vacations days are very different.

In EU I start with 5-6 weeks of vacations per year even in the most basic position, and sick days and national holidays are not in that count. Typically I work 38-40h/w, rarely more than 45 (and just few days per months).

When one of my friend asked me to move to SV in the startup he is working in I would get almost 3x pay, but far less vacation and a work week of 60h/w minimum. Not worth it for me
First of all, there are many things about this article itself that make me really happy. The content is a well designed mix of short videos interspread in an article which references sources, investigates facts independently and is honest about what it could and could not find. They even mention a part where Amazon did not reply to their question and state that Amazon is owned by the same owner as their paper. Overall, I think this is an amazing journalistic piece. Very nice to see that good journalism is still out there and hope this catches on as well.

Now, the subject of the article itself: its really sad that the people of Congo, who should ideally be a part of the global supply chain that brings prosperity to those involved in it, should be exploited so thoroughly. While ensuring the source of cobalt is perhaps the first step, maybe what is needed is better leadership amongst the miners itself (I don't mean this as criticism but as a suggested solution). I can see that the mining companies and those profiting from dirt cheap prices of cobalt would be dead against this, but here again we see what happens when labor is plentiful and there is an absence of any sort of regulation. The fact is that if companies can get around laws to get minerals cheaply, they will. Because the market rewards those who give them raw materials for cheap.
Git is intentionally stupid about file contents to make it simple and robust.

Smalltalk has some systems like you describe. They're integrated with the compiler and Smalltalk makes that easy.

Otherwise I think it's mostly that such systems are lots of work to make and maintain. Treating files as plain text has huge benefits when you consider simplicity and flexibility.

The real "UNIX philosophy" is "worse is better": simpler, quicker, finished solutions are more likely to flourish (except X11).

There's no such thing as "read access" when it comes to web security. People think there is but consider, for example,

1. Benign GET / repeated 1000 times per second. That's a DoS on the server

2. Shellshock. Looks like a benign GET / but nasty payload in User-Agent header

3. Simple GET but with SQLi in the URI

A hundred years ago it was much more expensive to travel, and governments less forgiving about cultural differences when enforcing local laws against immigrants. That doesn't mean it would be a sane policy today.

To put it another way, would you be okay with the entire Chinese army "immigrating" in preparation for an attack, as long as they all represented themselves as private citizens during the trip?

If not, then you agree with immigration restrictions in principle, "and we're just haggling over the price".
