At this stage, therefore, the strongest opposition to
Esperanto came from France, whose strongly nationalistic
government opposed the internationalist aims of Esperanto.
French nationalism was expressed, inter alia, in support for
the use of French as the international language. Since
Versailles, English had threatened the status of French. The
League of Nations was officially bilingual, though (with
French encouragement) French soon became its dominant
language. France was thus hardly likely to favour any kind
of threat to the prestige of its language.

Maybe we could just sticky this comment for every crypto thread.

It's interesting to see the objections change over the years. It used to be "bitcoin will never last past the year" to "bitcoin will never survive the next 30 years".
Sorry that came off as negative. It's more or less a very limited amount of time. That's one of the reasons I can't get a "regular job". My wife has an illness we haven't gotten a stable diagnosis for yet, which makes her exhausted all the time, leaving me to watch our 5 children (from teen to baby), which is a full time job in and of itself. The few times I do anything during the day have to be done in tiny windows in which the kids aren't trying to burn down the house and terrorize each other. And I've been consistently getting less sleep than I need because I try to get little amounts of job searching or entrepreneurial work done during late hours. So any time I have to dedicate to doing any of these things, including commenting on HN, is sleep-deprived and rushed.
This is not aimed to become an Invision competitor. There are however people for which Invision is too much and only need a simple way to share and collect a quick feedback one something they've been working on.
Yeah, but it fails at its objective when considered outside a European context.
Aside from custom root certs being installed, https is out either way, not only with IP address, right? HSTS makes that even more of a problem, and pinning makes even the custom root cert a problem.

FoxNews is basically tabloid media, shark attack and child abduction stories and all.

NPR just does a terrible job of explaining other points of view. In some ways that's more dangerous. It is this kind of journalistic failure (a failure to earnestly explain people) that lets tabloid media seem relatively credible to people who feel like they're not being explained well.

No one said law enforcement literally went to him and tried to convince him it was a bad idea. And if they did, he still made the decision himself, right? Unless we're subscribing to the theory that he was compelled to shut down.

I would personally refuse to work on a secure messaging service because the thought of making a product that will be used by awful people to do awful things would actually be offputting. If that's less of a concern to you than having secure communication, whatever, go nuts. Not everyone is a gung-ho privacy advocate though.

Price discrimination is when a producer charges different customers different prices for the same good. So yes, price discrimination is implicitly an arbitrage opportunity - assuming there is competition.

Truly different goods don't have the same implications for consumer and producer surplus. That's not to say that price discrimination can't be disguised.
In my own experience, people who speak Esperanto are more likely to be against the status quo of nationalism and tend to be against the imperialist nature of their own or other large governments. They tend to be for the free travel of people and against strict immigration laws. Those ideologies square well with political movements of communism, anarchism, libertarianism, etcetera which are usually on the fringes of society.

I've been playing with IF and high activity too, and have been struggling to find a good balance.

My sport (track cycling) is very power intensive and has both strength and endurance components.

I have two eating periods on active days and one on my rest days. That seems to do me ok, but endurance has still been an issue.
The fair labor standards act limits that basically to front-of-house in the US.

That's problematic thinking, putting more miles on a car wears it out faster. Sunk cost or not, say you drive twice as much because you're an Uber driver, you will now have to perform maintenance and repairs twice as often, give or take based on differences in driving and whether or not the car starts cold every time. Maybe the numbers work out, but ignoring them probably doesn't make sense, especially if you drive a car that is known to be on the less reliable side.
As this is partially a matter of opinion I believe that the character and prejudices of jwz can be called into question in a relevant manner. He was once renowned as a wise and talented programmer. That was a while ago. He's most famous for negative and somewhat inflammatory opinions. I'm not going to say that I think his argument here is bad by virtue of that, which I hope excuses me from ad hominem, but I question the applicability and the degree to which his wisdom can be generally applied. There's few enough people who don't know something I don't know, but if this is one of those things then I'd like to hear a bit more corroboration of these opinions.

> whereas many 'traditional payment methods' let people send money instantly for free.

Well, not really free. There's a cost associated, but it may not be initially applied to the consumer. It makes it's way through in some way though, such as an increased service cost. The most transparent industry for this is likely gas stations, which in the U.S. at least (and even then I can only comment on the regions I've observed it), they will quote different prices per gallon for cash and for credit/debit, which is them pushing the cost through to the consumer transparently. This was actually disallowed by card processing agreements in the past, because card processors didn't want the fees hampering acceptance of charge cards.
FYI that's not enough. That may act as a form validation, but does not verify that the card is active and able to be used. Anyone can run the Luhn against a card # - but thieves have known CC numbers and want to verify they can be used. As a merchant you have to be somewhat on top of your orders and cancel any "suspicious" ones to prevent chargebacks.

The problem is that it has a bizarre phonetic inventory for an IAL.

That said, I think people overblow the significance of choosing a European base over some other. I know people whose native languages are syllabaries, abugidas, and logographies; most of them prefer even the supremely flawed English alphabetic writing system.
No, no. Please no static DH!
Agreed Invision can be way too feature rich. Redpen (https://redpen.io/) does an amazing job of filling that void. They boast tens of thousands of paying users, how are you planning to market based on Invision and Redpen as incumbents?
Yep, prices were rising before ACA and continued to rise thereafter. I'm not sure on the rate of increase, but the absolute levels are getting to the impossible.

Regardless of the cause, it's extremely frustrating to be hit with such a large monthly bill for rather poor coverage. I'm not quite as bad off as 0xbear, but we're at $1550/mo for a family of three for much crappier coverage than we had a few years back.

Here in Phoenix we've seen double digit increases every year for years, and are down to a single provider on the individual market.

Paying $18k/yr before you even use a plan is insane. Use it at all and you're looking at $20 or 25k total, with coverage limits not really kicking in to stop the bleeding until you've shelled out 30k or so.

Somebody making $80k/yr just hits the subsidy payout and is spending 20-40% of income on health care. Unsustainable.

Argue the whys all you want, these sky high rates have to change.
That's not totally true. We generally want enterprises on TLS 1.3 rather than TLS 1.2; TLS 1.3 has a safer, more modern design. Further, enterprises want to be on 1.3.

It's also not a legitimate IETF goal to prevent network operators from monitoring their own networks. Of course, it's not a legitimate goal to ensure they can monitor their networks in any particular way.

It's not an especially simple debate.
It's not because the credentials themselves are worthless, they dont have an inherent value. It's like value semantics vs reference semantics. And you can use bitcoin irl too.

"just" by a dongle for each set of headphones you regularly use. For me, that means one dongle, but if I had 'work headphones' I would instantly buy a second dongle so I would never have to worry about this.

Obviously that is objectionable on a $$$ apple tax $$$ level, but pragmatically it's not much of an issue.

I do still miss the mini RCA jack, however, because on occasion I do forget my headphones & adapter and can't use any other normal headphones. (And I hate charging headphones and wearing batteries on my ears)
I made significant use of my healthcare pre-ACA ($30k-$50k charges before insurance). All of it was in-network, covered, and a small annual premium.

The very year ACA took effect my health plan was canceled, my doctor went off-network, my new plan had 3x the annual premium and has grown 30% year over year, as have deductibles, and I fight tooth and nail every single charge to make sure it is in network and covered.

Yes, one anecdote is not data. But there is no more validity to the politician's lie that I can "keep my health plan, keep my doctor, and health care costs will go down."
"Learning something more advanced" is usually knowing how to fix conflicts, merge, and rebase. That can all be handled with the GUI. Even when you screw up, learning how to use the reflog can be done from the GUI.

Fracking, for all its controversy, does not outright kill random people when something goes wrong. Whenever there's a problem, it's going to be front page news, and people (old people in particular) are going to call their political representatives and complain. This is going to become a massive political football. There's no way it gets introduced smoothly and quickly--that's just a futurist daydream.
Not sure exactly what that point would be, but if you refer to :

then he doesn't have a point at all.
(BTW, I think this is a great idea. Just, yeah, disclaimer.)
The intention clearly seems to be for the watch to be worn on the same arm that you hold the gun with.
There have been several studies done by educators and a literacy nonprofit. These have looked specifically at educational outcomes (for readers with dyslexia, ADHD, vision deficits, early readers, ESL/ELL students). The benefits for reading fluency and comprehension are quite large (and surprised even us, tbh).

We also gather data in our "Reading Challenge", which is more generalizable but is not a controlled experiment. This has shown that most people who take the challenge read faster with the color gradients, and that the average speed increase is 20%. But the effect is not universal.

You might try a couple of the other color schemes, including the "night mode" that inverts things. But if you read mostly in chunks, as opposed to linearly, then you're probably not as likely to benefit.
I think there are two counterproductive forces around Esperanto: a) Attachment to bizarre communist political ideology (I've seen this a lot in online and offline Esperanto groups) and b) slightly deficient phonotactics for an IAL (some sounds used are incredibly difficult to teach to e.g. Japanese speakers).

Third to those is maybe the accusative, the grammar of which is the subject of an entire pamphlet.

It's otherwise super easy to learn if you can manage to pronounce the sounds. I encourage you to give it a shot either through Duolingo or through Kurso de Esperanto
There's no good way. You have to use heuristics. CC companies won't help you.

This is pretty much why I think credit cards are unfairly one-sided, and is a big advantage to crypto-currencies like bitcoin. CC are as easy as possible for the consumer, but it's up to the business to guess if the consumer is authorized to use it, and there's no good way to be sure. Some people are going to be unfairly shafted. Oh and credit card networks can do things like shut off access to WikiLeaks if the US government asks them to. The system mostly works for most people in western countries - but it is very flawed.
One reason to like Seattle is that they actually have bike trails, not just lane separation with car traffic.

Beijing used to have a lot of such bike lanes in 1999 when I first visited (the land of the sea of bicycles) but sadly all of this has been turned into parking for cars.
UBI seems unlikely now, maybe very low level like 500 dollars per month, but definitely not going to support a comfortable living, that is only fantasy.
The fact that it's much easier for those who already speak a Romance language means that it's still is tied to particular nations.

>This is all to say that Esperanto is genuinely better as a second language for Europe and the Americas if not the world.

English is as close to a global lingua franca as we've ever had. There's just so much momentum behind it, that it would take something world shaking to change that. I think we'd be better off trying for an artificial language that is mostly mutually intelligible with English if the goal is really widespread adoption.
That's one of the things I like about the auxiliary language Interlingua[1] over Esperanto[2]. To quote from Wikipedia:

"Interlingua has detached itself from the movement for the development and introduction of a universal language for all humanity. Whether or not one believes that a language for all humanity is possible, whether or not one believes that Interlingua will become such a language is totally irrelevant from the point of view of Interlingua itself. The only fact that matters (from the point of view of Interlingua itself) is that Interlingua, thanks to its ambition of reflecting the cultural and thus linguistic homogeneity of the West, is capable of rendering tangible services at this precise moment in the history of the world. It is by its present contributions and not by the promises of its adherents that Interlingua wishes to be judged."

It was created with a goal of taking its structure and vocabulary from other common European (mostly Romance) languages, which means if one is familiar with those languages, they can already decently read Interlingua. The same passage from above, for those who might know some Romance language:

"Interlingua se ha distachate ab le movimento pro le disveloppamento e le introduction de un lingua universal pro tote le humanitate. Si o non on crede que un lingua pro tote le humanitate es possibile, si o non on crede que interlingua va devenir un tal lingua es totalmente indifferente ab le puncto de vista de interlingua mesme. Le sol facto que importa (ab le puncto de vista de interlingua mesme) es que interlingua, gratias a su ambition de reflecter le homogeneitate cultural e ergo linguistic del occidente, es capace de render servicios tangibile a iste precise momento del historia del mundo. Il es per su contributiones actual e non per le promissas de su adherentes que interlingua vole esser judicate."

If things have gotten cheaper, why does everything in a 1917 sears catalog, adjusted for inflation, look so inexpensive? Solid metal tools used to cost less than the modern walmart plastic thing.
And honestly, when you're admitted to the hospital unexpectedly, you're probably not in the frame of mind to be questioning everyone who comes by. I know when I was in for a few days, I only recognized the name of one of the hospitalist doctors that later billed me. And the bills can come months later!

French here. French politicians, and a big part of the population also, are weirdly defensive about using any international language other than French.

French is actually used in some international organization: international post (and aviation I think?) as well as diplomacy. That latter one may make some politicians blind to the fact that the game is set: English won as the de facto international language.

France could dispute the status of superpower to UK in the time of colonial empires but this time is definitely over, but some are deluded into thinking that we could still dispute the status of English as the predominant language.

It is a combination of pride and laziness that makes so many people consider that we should not accept English as an international language. I find it stupid, but it is not a thing that is specific to the far-right nationalists.

those kinds of differences are exactly part of what the reproducible builds project has worked on

however debug symbols and "debug mode" are two different things.. at least in debian packages are generally compiled with debug symbols on, then separated into a separate package automatically and stripped into the final package as a separate step.

When would I only have access to the command line as Windows developer? The most I would have to do from a command line in my usual day to day work is use git pull to automate my deployments.

You're right. The rpi is feature complete for me. Everything works as expected. I don't have to change any of the platform or OS code. I can simply build on top. But I guess shipping a feature complete smartphone is much harder.
I'll buy that. My point is that it's not something that will happen all of a sudden. First, the tech needs to be ready. Then we'll have a years-long period of political wrangling. And once we finally get through that, sure, adoption could be swift. But people in tech who think this is just going to sail through aren't in touch with how the majority of people look at the world... they're sort of like the folks who thought Google Glass would be a smashing success.
Poor people have smartphones at a rate far higher than you would expect, partly because it's practically necessary these days, but also because you can get one on a plan from your carrier.
