This is an extremely stupid, reductionist discussion that shows the difference between theoretical and practical freedoms.

While the Queen's approval is theoretically required for legislation and various other bits of constitutional machinery, in practice it is always granted.

The objections to the Queen's role in the power structure are theoretical; nobody can point to specific bad actions as justification for changing the system.

The objections to Erdogan are much more practical and involve suppression of opposition and journalists.
Well, then it might be terrifying for hotels then.

I'm not sure what the overall impact of Airbnb will be on the more low-end jobs. Sure you won't need bellboys etc, but cleaners will still be handy. I remember reading about a guy who had a very smooth Airbnb operation. He had dedicated fixers (electricians, furniture restorers, etc), and cleaners. So all he really had to do was approve random people who wanted this house for a while, and he was effectively making 2x what he would from rent, though this might have been riskier than just renting it out.
And then there's the part where people lose or damage fingers or retinas. Accidents happen. Your crypto may not be the first thing that comes to mind when you suffer injury, but it's a real problem in any population large enough.
That's not a takeover, it's something the BBC could choose not to do if they didn't want to.
Protocol bridges always only provide a subset of the original functionality, mostly because it's impossible to fully map one protocol to another.

Of course, the same problem can happen for a multi protocol client as well, but at least it's not inherently impossible to solve it there.
It absolutely is!

I'd be more sympathetic to Facebook if they declared they would never use patents to sue someone and they'd only use their patents "defensively". Of course, they'd never do such a thing even though such a statement has zero weight.

There's quite a few agencies, which maintain a facade of being a private person or couple renting out a property and listing a dozen or so properties on one account. The presentation of the data could have been a bit more slick & accessible, the labels are huge. For instance, presenting the data as an evolving heatmap with total properties per neighborhood, cumulative listings over time etc

I wish microsoft could just implement a temporary/beta version just to let developers try it out.
I hate to say it, but you have a perfectly valid point.

I hate to say it because it makes changing the license significantly more problematic than it seemingly was an hour or two ago. By changing the license, Facebook assumed rights to contributions that it does not have. Even if the licenses are _compatible_, releasing contributions under a different license is not allowed without permission from the contributors.

This is a change from a permissive open source license to another permissive open source license, but what if my GPL contributions to a project were released under BSD? Or what if they were released under a proprietary commercial license? In either case, I might not have contributed, and I should have the right to rescind my contribution to prevent it from being included under a new license.

It's an interesting quagmire, and one that FB's choice of license was destined to lead into at some point. I think it was a bad decision from the get-go.

This is not the first major licensing snafu. A lot of projects ran into similar issues trying to adopt GPLv3 when it first came about. And I have seen a few other projects deal with community uprisings as other license changes came about.

Personally, I think FB should adopt the combined apache/GPL license, adopt CLA language like you've stated, and provide notice that developers can rescind contributions if they don't agree. Perhaps do a tri-license of Apache/GPL/BSD if there's significant kickback. Their current license is a problem and too much of a continuing distraction. JMO.

Patents can be used to restrict all four of your freedoms under the FSF definition of "free software". They have written about this problem for quite a long time[1,2]. The problem with patents for things like formats or protocols is that they make free software implementations potentially dangerous to use (users can be sued for violating a patent). That's why h264[3], MPEG-whatever, FLV, etc are all considered to be bad even though they have free software implementations. MP3 recently shedded its patent licenses[4], and the response was that every distribution finally packaged mp3-lame in their main repos.

GPLv2 didn't have a patent grant because it wasn't a very well-known issue in 1991. Apache 2.0 was the first free software license to have a patent grant (which unfortunately made it GPLv2 incompatible) but GPLv3 included a similar (though stronger) patent grant because of Apache 2.0.

While these may sound like theoretical problems, people have been sued over using GIF, MP3, etc before. Every time you install Firefox, it will download a free software binary from a Cisco server that does h264 decoding[5]. However, they cannot legally recompile the binaries themselves as it means that the patent grant no longer applies and Mozilla (or your distribution) could be sued -- even though the binary's source is BSD-licensed.

If this is fintech, traditional banks don't have to worry much.

The real tech is something that replicates every day things like paying for something, checking bank account, transfering to other accounts or friends, making saving plans, analysing how a loan for a car or house or investment would fit into the current situation.

What AI can do on top is making assumptions about the future, e.g., based on the last 3 years spending and the current loan you consider taking out, how will your bank account look like in 10 years and why?

What AI can do is give risk/opportunity assessments for certain scenarios based on anonymized data from all the users, e.g., getting a raise, moving to another town, losing your job, getting divorced, having a baby.

What AI can do is figure out based on activity patterns (like a computer virus scanner) when you get an offer that tries to cheat you, when you don't have enough info to make a decision, or when someone hacks your account, stole your credit card or similar. And last but not least it can tell you if you forgot to pay the utility bill yesterday, because yesterday was the 1st and you usually pay that on the 1st.

What AI, at least in its current form, is probably not able to do is talk to you like a human.
When I was reading this, a stupid idea that just pops out of my mind. May be we should tax industrial / business uses of electricity? AI, Robots, Machine Automation are nothing without its power. We cant tax food for human consumption, we can surely tax power for machine consumption?

The biggest mistake of the EU has been accepting too many countries in, not too few.

For an Europeanist it's desperating to see how the UK (now to be gone) and Eastern European countries have always blocked policies of further integration.

If Turkey were in and with veto power, the EU would be able to do practically nothing, as the cultural and political differences are huge. The EU would probably be on the verge of breaking up now, or would have already broken up at the Greek crisis.

And the story of the "moderate" Erdogan turning an authoritarian dictator after being "humiliated" sounds extremely naive to me. The things he is doing are not the work of a humiliated moderate. They are the work of an authoritarian for whom the alleged humiliation was a very convenient excuse to stop pretending to be a moderate.
I'm on the opposite camp. Nothing makes me groan so deeply as dialogues. And I know I'm not alone either: plenty of people are bored out of Plato because of the dialogic writing, specially because every other line amounts to nothing more than "Why, indeed Socrates...".

Don't get me wrong. I like Plato (quite a bit). But dialogues seem as approachable to me as poetry. They might be approachable in the sense that, since they simulate a conversation between two people who might not know eachother, they necessarily lead to a much clearer exposition of whatever is the topic at hand. It's indeed as if you were reading two people try to make their ideas across when they're complete strangers eachother. But it takes completely different kind of "reading" from the one a person might use when reading prose or when reading a pure exposition.

Two cents.
If you refer to the map, it shows the new rooms-to-let added on that particular day. Rest assured that there were/are hundreds to thousands of transactions per day in Amsterdam. OP used this datasource: http://insideairbnb.com/get-the-data.html
Their media was clearly inferring that they will fix the problem in a near future and this was the only way for them to get rid of the pressure. They spent their last 15 years to raise police officers, soldiers, doctors and primary school teachers and the government was helping them since they thought that the Gulenists will obey their rules and share their mission by oppressing their non-supporters.

Basically Erdogan took a religious group and made them political and when they had the power, they used it against the government and Erdogan just got away with the accusations with "We were tricked by Gulenists, they're terrorist", nothing more.

Although Gulen still doesn't accept that they did the coup attempt, this was the only way for them to out and even this one was actually hopeless. They have a great hierarchic system so it's hard to keep track of the decision-maker and prove the case so there is no clear evidence, that's why I told "I believe". It's possible that Erdogan knew the coup attempt and yet wait for them (or even convince with third-party organizations) to do it so that we can declare them terrorist without a doubt and do whatever he wants with his followers' support.
Personally I think it is a mistake to use Rust instead of OCaml if the use case doesn't require the tight memory management that Rust supports.

If the target domain can be done in a language with GC, enjoy productivity with sails taking full wind, instead of having to deal with lifetime annotations.

Now if the GC induced delays are too much for the target domain, then for all means use Rust.

After all, the tool for reasoning about performance is a profiler, not the compiler itself.

AirBnB is a plague in Amsterdam where people rent out their house almost full-time on the service. A lot of concern has been voiced by neighbours and public figures (notably Arjen Lubach, a sort of Dutch John Oliver). The critisicm comes from the fact that Airbnb pretends to be a place for short term rentals and family businesses on the side, but is spiralling more and more into professional agencies renting out houses without much supervision in terms of safety or tax.

I guess most major cities around the world face this problem but this is a nice visualization.
There was already a similar discussion some time ago, I'll see if I can find it.

EDIT: Here it is:

The rules for max 60 days in Amsterdam (pre-existing but that seemingly noone respected) are now seemingly effective at AirBnB level, at least in theory:
https://community.withairbnb.com/t5/Hosting/Some-news-on-how...
and that may contribute to change (either increase or decrease) the numbers of "dots" (or maybe not).

The need for cleaning and maintenance is more or less directly connected to number of guests/nights rented, if guests go to AirBnB's they don't go to the hotels, and the SAME cleaners and maintenance people that used to work fulltime for the hotel will start working part time with the hotels and part time with airBnB's.

As long as the availability of AirBnB's actually increases the number of tourists/guests in a given area/city, that is "added wealth" otherwise it is "shifted wealth".
Conversely - since usually AirBnB's tend to be cheaper than hotels and other similar forms of accomodation, it is "shifted wealth with a reduced amount" (the lower price which is "lost" in favour of the customer + the AirBnB commissions that go somewhere else).

As a side effect the same apartment that was rented for a "decent" price to a local is now used in AirBnB, so the locals must pay much higher prices for long term length.
Why is this submission flagged? is it because the OP used the clickbaity title? The data presented in the link is quite interesting
Pardon my ignorance, but if these firms are buying up patents, aren't they paying fairly and squarely for IP assets? Whether or not they produced the IP, how does that factor into whether or not they are "bad actors" in commercial exchange?

Actually, from a legal layer it also might be a tactic to weaken the bargining power of anyone who uses React (why would Facebook want to discuss a patent portfolio with a company that cannot sue them for any form of patent infringement without losing their React protection). They also would lose their effective ability to counter-sue in a patent case.

I don't like software patents on an ideological level, but even from a legal and practical perspective these license terms should be reason for concern. The first thing I read when I look at a free software project is the license, and when I first saw React a few years ago I stopped looking once I read the PATENTS file.

This is exactly what happened / is happening at my former employer. Already 2 years of work, team of 5 engineers, Kubernetes, dozens of microservices. Lot's of time wasted on CI/CD, orchestration, monitoring, refactoring. Live date? Probably somewhere next year. It was sad to watch. 100% resume-based development.
That's what the UK does with their anti-porn policy. (At least the first part.)
Fair enough. Though personally, I care less about end of human race, and more about end of technological civilization. Life is resilient, but if we nuke ourselves back to the stone age, then frankly, what's the point?
Well, a big decision point is what one uses as main development platform.

Sadly OCaml support on Windows is not great, to put it nicely.
I think the parent's comment around refactoring was precisely that you don't know what the contracts and boundaries between your microservices should be before you build them, as you don't know much about the problem space yet.

The point is those other libraries could be in violation of any patents that Facebook may or may not have with regards to React. Perhaps they have a patent on virtual DOM? That would mean your usage of Inferno, Preact, Vue, or Angular 2+ would violate the patent.

Here's an aspect.

In Berlin, landlords realized they could get three times as much from an apartment by putting it on AirBnB rather than actually renting it to someone. The situation got so bad that it is now illegal to rent an apartment where you don't actually live[1] (with exceptions[2]).

If the situation in Amsterdam is similar to Berlin, this means that every one of those dots[3] is an apartment that locals cannot use. Tourists are, on a way, taking over their city, and those that live there have to reshape their lives to accommodate them. The citizens of Amsterdam, the ones that make it a nice place to visit in the first place, are losing access to their own city.

Depends on where you put your counterfactuals. It is true that once countries are in the EU, the EU has almost no leverage. That happened with Bulgaria and Rumania.

If you imagine a world where Turkey was in the EU, you might as well through in some mechanisms for more leverage on existing members?

> Nowhere in the React patent terms does it specify that you grant Facebook rights to use your patents--not even to ones related to React.

I detailed the specifics.

Take this example:

In exchange for doing graphic design on your menu, I stipulate that I can shut down your bakery if you take me to court when I eat from the bakery without paying. Now, sure, I haven't granted you the right to come eat my wares, but I'm going to have to shutdown my shop to keep it from happening.

In this case as long as you change the menu you can go back and enforce it, but with software, it isn't as feasible (say you had a game built on top of Raknet, which has the same PATENTS rider).

Well, my point was that Microsoft has a very broad patent portfolio, as does Apple, and many other such companies that are using React in production. If they do not fear this patent clause, then I fail to see why your startup would. Especially if your startup has no patents at all (as is the case with most software startups). Apple & Microsoft would have a lot more to lose if they were somehow granting Facebook unlimited access to their patent portfolio just by their usage of React. You think their attorneys would let that fly?

True, it's not a copyright assignment, so Facebook should probably maintain the list of copyright owners somewhere (e.g. Go has (C) Go Authors and the list of authors is in a separate file), however, the CLA terms I quoted allow sublicensing. When signing the CLA, you grant Facebook the copyright license to your contributions, which Facebook then sublicenses to everyone else with the license of their choosing (as long as this license doesn't grant more rights than in the CLA.)
The Ultimate Clean Energy Strategy
Yes. We built out a lot of NG1 components at my company and are currently building a product in NG4. The issues are, for example, the template syntax is completely different. That has to be mapped over. There is no $scope and the component lifecycle is completely different in NG4. Depending on how you stored state, responded to state, and depending on which ngDirectives you used...there may or may not be a direct mapping with concepts for NG4. Also, if you have any testing in place at all, those tests will likely need to be rewritten.

NG4 components depend on RxJS, for example...but Angular 1 had no such concept. SystemJS modules are a thing in Angular 4...but not in Angular 1. You may or may not have ES6 modules in your Angular 1 code base...but you definitely have them in your Angular 4 code base. There are so many differences that "upgrading" to Angular 4 is really just a rewrite in practice. And it's no less effort for you to migrate to React or Vue in a piecewise manner.
