This is completely missing the point though.

There shouldn't be any taxi licenses anymore and any modern country should get rid of this monopolizing practice. The Taxi licenses were important when the technology was not there today most of the reasons why a taxi license is requires isn't necessary.

Furthermore uber drivers are freelancers they are the ones who need to pay their taxes by italian law. Italy like many other countries speculate in giving the kind of tax benefits that companies like uber is using. They do so to get jobs which can then be taxed fairly simple through income tax. Ubers model destroy this relationship and politicians who want to score political points have decided to outlaw uber.

There is nothing in what you say which couldn't have been fixed with a better legislation.

Context Denmark went through same exercise recently. Same claims about it being illegal was made.

There are plenty of things to critique about uber, your critique really should be a critique about how your own politicians didn't manage to modernize in proper time. Furthermore with automated cars coming this whole argument you are trying to establish is moot.

Edit: Instead of just down voting me because you disagree try and at least have the courtesy to forumalte an argument against what I am saying that way we all could learn something. I am more than happy in being corrected and correct something if I am wrong, down voting me doesn't help
That's a good point that I would agree with, however, I don't think it's applicable here. It's not just Uber customers that pay for the company's services - the Uber "taxis" also use infrastructure that Italian taxpayers have paid for(roads, taxi lanes, etc...I'm not familiar with the Italian situation). In that case, the Italian taxpayers would also have a say in the services provided.

But even ignoring that, there is a fundamental contention between state regulation and free markets. It's obvious that Europe in general prefers at least some level of state regulation, and is willing to suffer the market inefficiency for it. Whether that's "good" or "bad" is difficult to determine, but there's certainly a number of arguments that can be made in favor of state-wide rather than piecemeal regulation, e.g. the uneven information relationship between producer and consumer(I'm not really qualified to determine whether the product is safe), the unrealistic time investment for each consumer to verify with an independent agency whether a producer is up to their standards, and so on.
Looks cool but seems like it's aimed at mobile and not websites? Also, how do they differ from Firebase?

My previous experience with Firebase makes me hesitant to use a BaaS. It works great for simple stuff but as soon as you want more control it becomes a mess compared to just having your own server. It might just be me who haven't wrapped my head around the mindset correctly though.

Bank of America Travel Rewards is about 2.6% back in points that can be used to offset future travel expenses (airline and hotel). You have to qualify for BOA's highest tier of service, but this can be done by keeping $100k in a brokerage account. It's not pure cash back but pretty close, and importantly, the points never devalue or expire.
A Windows user has had to relearn their desktop UI every few years anyway since Windows 8, and whilst Windows 8 largely bombed, 8.1 and 10 have not.

Perhaps putting icons back in the desktop by default might be a good default setting tweak that distributions can do. I never quite understood the reasoning behind removing icons, seems to leave a it if unecessary empty space that can be used for something useful.
Having lived abroad for some time I can sympathize with the problems mindflayer and his girlfriend have. Health insurance is often a pain as a foreigner and immigrant, Germany doesn't seem to be an exception.

I looked a bit around and it seems that the OP didn't research all options (language barrier and bureaucracy is often a problem here).

@Mindflayer: I suggest you find an expert that can guide you through this jungle.

But what I found in my quick research is that there is a european health insurance card (apparently one can get it from one's EU health insurance in one's home country, it's called EHIC). It allows a German doctor to book services against your Italian health insurance. Unfortunately, it only covers emergencies.

For other medical services you are right, it's probably easiest if you have a job or are married. But it seems that there is another option: your girlfriend registers as unemployed/job seeking. Job seekers from EU countries are treated similarly as employees and hence are entitled to public health insurance.

This is rather amusing. I never used LiveJournal. But I associate it with Encyclopedia Dramatica, the chans, and all of the other lulzy trash that's been used by the alt-right.

Yes - it seems that MySQL is easier to set started with and there is more information available online. Also a lot of cheap hosting uses MySQL which is plus for hobby projects.
That looks extremely useful!

On a side note: One thing that always annoyed me about Erlanger is it's lackluster documentation, specifically browsing the docs. Amy efforts to improve that?
Postgres adhered to a philosophy of "make it correct, then make it fast".

MySQL adhered to a philosophy of "make it fast, then if someone complains enough, consider making it correct".

The result of this is predictable: Postgres is now fast and correct in its implementations, while MySQL is fast and burdened with a large number of "gotchas" and legacy incorrectness.

For example:

MySQL's traditional "fast" table type doesn't support transactions. So you have to select a different table type if you want transactions, but then when you do, you discover that you need to usually go "up" one level from what you'd expect, because the REPEATABLE READ level only affects SELECT, not INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE queries. Which in turn means you can have an inconsistency between the set of rows you'd see in a SELECT with a set of conditions, and the set of rows that would actually be affected if you issued an UPDATE with that same set of conditions. You have to go up one level to READ COMMITTED in order to start solving this.

MySQL's Unicode collations have some bugs; when I was at Mozilla, one we ran into was that we had to set up our own custom collation to get, for example, "e" and "é" to be considered distinct characters (if you ever used MDN, and once saw a strange bug where French versions of topic tags showed on an English article? That's why -- MySQL thought "CSS Reference" and "CSS Référence" were the same tag).

MySQL infamously accepted almost any kind of garbage values regardless of declared column type, accepted values larger than the declared column width (i.e., you could insert a 300-character string into a 256-character VARCHAR column), and would silently or near-silently mangle, truncate or just drop the data.

etc., etc.

I cannot at this point imagine using MySQL for any kind of serious project.

I just want to point out that Signal, the encrypted messaging/voice chat app is using CBR for that reason: it should be possible to reconstruct the words spoken using the metadata that is leaked from a VBR.
Of course, that means losing some bandwidth, so it is not the most bandwidth-efficient app.

I sort of agree with some of the commenters here - the system works as intended. If you move to any country without a job first you will have a hard time. Health insurance shouldn't be part of a free 'welcome package' to whoever just feels like dropping by.

However, I think it would be hugely beneficial when all (goverment sanctioned) EU health insurances would be valid in all EU countries. If you get a private insurance in Germany you usually have this already covered. But not with the state insurances, for whatever reason.
The service is called NCC (Noleggio Con Conducente or Rent With Driver), the cars (and drivers) are nonetheless "licensed", since you are probably familiar with the concept of medallion, here is how a NCC car medallion looks:

https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noleggio_con_conducente

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/76/No...

The differences are several ones:

a Taxi has a meter and follows some time + km official tariff (+ a number of "fixed" supplements in some cases, like going to the airport, etc.) a NCC works by private agreement (usually, taken in writing or verbally) in advance.

a Taxi is a public service, i.e. they cannot refuse the service (unless of course there are serious reasons), whilst the NCC is a private one.

a taxi can be (though rarely it is as since the dawn of time, years before Uber came out, most cities have "RadioTaxi" where you phone a number and they send you the nearest available taxi which is contacted via radio) hailed on the street, the NCC must (in theory) start each and every trip from their (private) garage and end it again at the garage on return, i.e. unlike the taxi in which it is "yours" just for the time you are onboard, the NCC is rented for the whole trip and cannot take other passengers on the way back.

moreover there are territorial limitations (different for each category) on the operations of both taxies and NCC, as an example a taxi licensed by city "A" can bring a customer to city "B" but cannot take another passenger in city "B", a NCC licensed by city "A" must initiate the trip (i.e. pick up the passenger) within city "A".

Overall, the situation is messy and overcomplicated and the (IMHO illegal) costs for the licenses (and their clearly too limited number) do represent problems, but Uber it is (still IMHO) not the solution to them.

Does anybody have positive comments on TouchBar of the new MacBook Pro? So far I have read at best neutral reviews. This is very different from touchpad on new Macs. All reviews consistently have been praising it and that matches my personal experience.
As far as I'm aware nobody voted for Martin Luther King in any election. If you wanna ride the bus in the US you must follow the law (negros to the back), if you don't like it then either change the law or go back to Africa. Especially you, Rosa Parks.

Or perhaps in the historical Italian context, "if you wanna be Jewish go to Madagascar or otherwise emigrate."

Your argument - "accept an unjust law or leave" - applies equally well to all sorts of laws. Since your argument implies an insane conclusion, it must be wrong. Or do you endorse the conclusions I draw above?
I would be interested if Dgraph can handle the full Freebase dataset. (250 GB RDF)

How long does it load? What's the avg query response for very simple searches (like who is the US president)?
I don't think that's possible for me. I have some future monetization plans but that requires features I don't have yet. At the current state I have a hard time seeing anyone would pay for it. Also, due to how the back end is structured it's not possible to scale horisontally at the moment so all I could do with money is beefing up the current dyno, not adding more.

"There shouldnt be any taxi licenses anymore and any modern country should get rid of this monopolizing practice."

Last time I checked that kind of thing whas decided by the citizens of the modern country using its modern democratic institutions.

"Furthermore with automated cars coming this whole argument you are trying to establish is moot."

Actually, I think it makes even more sense. Italian society will decide how they want to deal with automatic cars, in the same way they are deciding how to deal with Uber.

I'm thinking about it but I'm no server admin so it feels a bit scary. I could probably do it quite easily but it would be a security nightmare.
To be honest I haven't really benchmarked it. Maybe that's something I should invest time in to see if there's some obvious bottleneck I can fix. Thanks for the suggestion.
Actually, you get this. Critical services are provided to all patients, regardless of nationality. All EU health insurances are accepted for urgent treatments. There's some time limit after which you'll need to register and get German insurance, but well, the way the system is set up (different payments and different paid-for treatments in the various countries), this is the only way things can currently work. It would be better if it was all unified across the EU, but that will take some time.
Oh OS/2... multitasking that worked and higher reliability than Windows 3/95 (for the most part). A job I had at the time required doing incremental and full backups of an OS/2 box, and also transmitting backoffice data to corporate. It was reasonably solid.

Historical minutia c. 1994:

Fry's Electronics botched the OS/2 Warp launch by misspelling, in 192 pt red font, "OS/2 WRAP [sic]", not once but 3-4x IIRC in their full-page SJ Mercury News ad.
Ah, excuse me for that. Too late now, it seems.
Thanks! Looks good so that's definitely something I should look more into.

The cash back is never going to be greater than the transaction fees, currently borne by the merchant. It has to come from somewhere after all.

Sadly, the current situation is:

* People want to pay with cards.

* Merchant doesn't want to lose 3% on every sale, but they want customers, so they take cards and have to raise prices

* Everyone (even cash customers) pays 3% more for all of their stuff. Some people with good credit get about half of it back as "cash back".

It might be better if we just used cash... It's definitely ridiculous to ban different prices for card vs cash (google US credit card surcharge law).
C/C++ library?!?

In my experience most bundle their own compiler suite. Nothing like learning what parts of C++03 are/aren't implemented.

Especially in the RTOS space where most the time your program is just an object file being injected into the OS.
Yeah there's a few, expect to visit the toilet on a regular basis, and you'll also retain water of you don't drink enough. Socialising can be a little awkward, and doing anything that requires broad rather than narrow focus (eg driving) can be a bit more difficult. I find my short term memory actually gets better, as does my ability to learn things long term.

I take it whenever I feel like I need a boost of concentration, it usually lasts about 6-8 hours so the latest I'll take it is 6pm if I want to sleep that night.
In Roman Law, legal precendents are one of the sources of the law system. If there is no explicit regulation about a matter, It is recommended that Judges apply other Judges' decisions. If two Judges at the same level decides differently, the matter is solved in higher courts.
Sorry, you remember incorrectly. The former pronunciation is correct. The stress is on the third syllable.
It's not their job per se, but they don't blindly follow the law, they apply it.

There are many, many cases where a judge will go against a law and create a precedent, which most of the times will be followed in following trials if the situation is the same or very similar.

I've been looking for such thing for a long time as I don't really like C for embedded programming. Was following https://zinc.rs/ for a while but then I've discovered ivory/tower framework made by Galois (http://ivorylang.org/). It's basically haskell DSL and C code generator for embedded world, currently targeting stm32 family.

Compared to these early rust attempts they've written a port of ArduPilot in ivory/tower called smaccmpilot (http://smaccmpilot.org/).

In one of the papers they even compare ivory with rust in terms of memory safety.

I'm now trying to port ODriveFirmware written in C (+CubeMX/CMSIS) to ivory and so far I'm pretty surprised how well it goes. I'm going to start documenting this process on a blog soon, if interested I've created a wiki page collecting resources about embedded programming in Haskell at https://wiki.base48.cz/EmbeddedHaskell
Thank you for adding more information about yourself and your situation. A couple of suggestions ...

1. Enrol in a English as a second language course. London is the centre from which the English speaking world spread. I know many people who have completed English courses and their careers and successes took off. When you can communicate better, you will be more confident, be able to negotiate better, etc.

2. If you are interested in pursuing an architectural career, find out what you need to do in order to upgrade your education to become registered in the UK. I'm not familiar with architecture registration requirements. For an engineer (electrical/civil/mechanical) those with overseas academic credentials are able to complete bridging courses in 1-2 years part-time and attain professional recognition.

3. Although your ideas for AR in the context of historical homes and places is very good, it is actually a fairly large project. Since you appear to have only entry level programming experience, you might be better off researching whether such projects are already underway somewhere. If not, then designing the "product" and then building a team to achieve that goal. But ...

4. Startups get a lot of publicity, but the news is very much tainted by survivor bias. There is very little written about the thousands of great ideas that putter out and disappear. The reasons are manifold, lack of technical leadership, lack of appropriate venture capital, lack of suitable team, lack of commercially viable market. The UK startup scene is more risk averse than that you read about about Silicon Valley; And ...

5. It is easier to build a professional network of contacts, when you have worked in an industry. Being on the outside, looking in is a lot harder than when on the inside looking to expand vistas.

IMHO I would suggest doing the English language course and then getting your professional qualifications up to UK requirements. Work in the industry so that you can build a professional network. Then you will have a more substantial background from which to re-evaluate your startup ideas. GOOD LUCK !
True, the libraries are C.
Compilers are often gcc. Like AVR has a gcc compiler and as you said some parts of C++ are implemented.
For ARM there is also a gcc.

I only have experience with AVR and ARM (STM) to be honest.

Ask HN: I dropped my s6 in the toilet
Sounds bizzare, yes! How can a person drop his phone in the toilet? I was questioning that myself but since last night I know...

I left it in rice overnight etc and blow-dried it (didn't open it at all).

Atm its turning on, and the software is working as expected.

The lock/shut down button keeps being pressed without me pressing it. I even turned the phone off and it came on , on its own.

I understand that the circuit board is still humid and maybe thats why it keeps doing this.

I also tried charging it and there were quirky electric noises coming out so I unplugged it immediately.

Moving forward, do I just let it dry for a few days and check out to see if its functioning correctly?

I understand that there is some danger in having phones like that, especially when charging them or being in an airplane.

Do I just buy a new phone (last option for me as I can't really afford one atm).

Thanks in advance.
What are those reasons in your opinion?
Go ahead and postpone life then, no one will stop you; life still doesn't give a shit about plans. You should try being close do dying a couple of times, that will align your perspective with reality in no time at all.
EURUSD: Bearish, Sees Second Weak of Weakness
I see a lot of these comments whenever Uber or other taxi based app's law violation are highlighted.

In my country, taxis have always been a cumbersome and painful existences. Trying to catch an early morning international flight meant - either trusting an unreliable operator to send you a taxi or paying way above the market rates to reach the airport on time.

What the apps have achieved is this: for me, as a customer, hailing a taxi is as simple as pressing a button. for a driver, they allow customer acquisitions to be super easy and not depend on unreliable operators. I am really grateful to the apps for this and happily pay the apps the middleman/operator fee.

But, the same apps routinely break laws in various countries and that too knowingly. It doesn't matter if the law makes sense to the multi-national company or not. They are supposed to follow the rule of the land. If every other MNC thought itself to be above the law of the land, I can't imagine what the world might look like. Like say for example - no Chrome or other browsers because MS could (did?) think that the EU anti-competition law was nonsense. They could continue shipping Windows with IE and asking people to outrage against the nonsense law which made it difficult for people (without a technical know how) to get a browser and get on the internet.
Odd. I associated it with "fandom" and fanfic culture, although that was rather a long time ago. Ever since the platform was sold to Russian owners its become more hostile to that kind of material, especially from LGBT people. I think they've all abandoned it for Dreamwidth.
In trying to group those together, the best my brain has been able to come up with is a raspberry-flavored pretzel.

I'm... slightly confused. :/
