> The NORMAL reaction by the state is to apply it, and stop the Catalan government from breaking it.

It's interesting that you think so. I'd say the normal thing to do would be to issue a press release pointing out that the results aren't legally binding under the constitution and whoever wastes government money running a referendum on the thing might be held criminally or civilly liable.

Actually trying to STOP the thing is so expensive that it defeats the purpose of preventing the central government's money being wasted on the thing. It's so heavy-handed that it seems like it would just make Catalans who want to split more determined, and perhaps drive some to the other side. The most rational thing about it is that it might serve as a show of force to prevent other territories from doing the same. That part seems kind of sad.
The question is, how many people will move there, and how are they going to pay for it? (if they are not billionaires, of which there are maybe ~2000 in the world)

I agree that maybe a handful might go there because they can. But very soon you need to start producing enough to at least keep yourself alive. So much that I believe we ought to start developing those technologies (which takes time) before other steps.

We can probably fabricate regolith-lookalikes on Earth and start doing basic chemical and industrial engineering for pretty cheap, much cheaper than the billions you need for a mission.
One can assume Google is tracking a ton of data beyond just what Google searches users do.

Firefox users who pick Google as the search engine are still giving a lot of info to Google, but less info than Google would have had if the user was using Chrome.

"Independent" is a strong word here.
The part that makes it even more confusing for me is that their party, Podemos, is a real left party which you'd expect to be against increasing income inequality.

I expect that the situation in Spain is much more complex than we give it credit for.

Firefox has has profiles since well before the first version of Chrome was released.

Unfortunately the UI has always been sort of hidden.

You can launch with `-P` or `-ProfileManager` to get a profile selection menu. Or nav to `about:profiles` for a slightly more convenient (but less attractive) version.

Firefox profiles are great. Better than Chrome profiles, though less convenient, for now. Interested to see how Containers fits in.
I don't really see why you must have an independent judiciary to have rule of law. It's obviously good, but as far as I'm aware, rule of law is merely about the fact that the law applies to everyone. I don't think it says anything about how a court system (if it even needs to exist) should function? In an extreme case, if your Supreme Court was completely independent (i.e. no impeachment risk, which we don't have in the US) but had only 1 justice on it, then he would essentially be the dictator, since he could interpret any law to mean anything, and his decision would need to stand.
I'm sure it has its uses, but when the news publishes an unemployment percentage that does not actually describe the percentage of people who are unemployed, that's deceptive and dishonest. I dunno if it's down to malice or just bureaucratic incompetence, but it's false either way.

> It's also fairly accurate because it's largely based on unemployment insurance claims forms, which have to be re-filled every 1-2 weeks.

That's even worse. You can only claim unemployment insurance for a few months after losing your job. Claiming that's more accurate because it's easier to measure is like the joke about the guy who lost his keys in the bushes, but is looking for them under the streetlamp because it's easier to see.
Think out of the box.
Is moral a law that forbids people speaking? Self-determination is in the human rights and Catalonia has more than 1000 years of history, culture and language.
Democracy cannot be illegal, so this banning must be disobbeyed.

Without disobbeying, woman and black people would not vote nowadays, so history proves it is a good way to take down immoral legal laws.

EDIT: UN experts say that Spain must respect fundamental rights in Catalonia. Freedom of expression, freedom of press and power separation is at stake.

Ask HN: What Virtual Toll Free Phone System Do YC Startups Prefer?
We've been using Cloudphone, which has some nice features (SMS in and out) and a good price point ($20/month).

But lately they'be been extremely unreliable, and we've lost a few high value clients as a result. It seems like it's time to migrate to something more trustworthy.

Other players in the market include Grasshopper, RingCentral, eVoice, freedom voice. Many have websites that appear to be quite dated (800.com), and several online comparisons have the appearance of astroturfing by Grasshopper.

I think that the idea that learning is what was missing from the prior generation of AI is the most important insight of this generation. There are many things that we don't know how to implement from first principals but that can be implemented by a system that can learn. The problem now is that the substrates for learning are extremely low level, practically the raw inputs to the retina or pure symbols. In order to go beyond the admittedly impressive parlor tricks you can play with these kinds of inputs we need much higher level representations that can be the substrates for learning. We are still missing that ever illusive 'common sense' knowledge about the world that evolution baked into nervous systems millions of years ago, and it is not at all clear to me whether learning algorithms are going to be the tool that allows machines to build an actionable internal model of the world, evolution didn't do it by learning, it did it by billions of years of trial and error and the search space is unimaginably larger than that of something like go.

> Boston's a dollop of hills in a spoon of marshes.
Not true. Spain was the union of three kingdoms: Castilla, Aragon and Navarra.

In fact you can see it in the flag, it has a shield with the chains of Navarra, the lion of Leon, the Castle of Castilla and the colors of Aragon(which are the same of Spain and Catalunya flag) over a Granada fruit(for Granada conquest).

Basque was never a kingdom,either Galicia or Catalunya. Asturias was a kingdom, later becoming Asturias and Leon kingdom, then growing again and again against the muslims in Alandalus.

To say that Basque was a kingdom is an enormous lie that unfortunately is told in Basque country as they control their own education.

My grandfather was Basque, he spoke Batua, the original Basque language in his village. He could not speak complex abstractions or communicate with people in villages 40 kms away as every batua was different. The language was unified less than 100 years ago(with the abstractions simply being invented at this time)and called euskera, a recent invention. Now kids there are brainwashed being told that this was the language that people spoke 3000 years ago.

The places in Spain that after industrialization are rich are rewriting History in order to look better themselves, specially if you are nationalist.

Yeah, but that's nonsense that bad journalists write or Mozilla marketing people say, because it's more understandable for normal readers and makes it more credible that things will change.

The truth is that they were in a dilemma situation where they had to choose between not killing all extensions or fixing performance by introducing a multiprocess architecture (which required breaking all extensions).

So, the first thing they did was to simply wait. The performance issues were not that bad yet, so it just didn't yet weigh up to kill all extensions.

Eventually they started work on the multiprocess architecture. That was around 2012, if I remember correctly. They've been doing that in the background without visible results for the public for a long time. It's considered the biggest architectural change that Firefox ever went through, so yeah, that just takes time. Cleaning up technical debt that Chrome never had.

And then they also figured, if they already break all extensions, they should also switch to a new extension API in the same breath (because the old one has had big problems for as long as its existed). So, then they implemented that, too, in the background, in parallel, just to be able to throw it all on the table one day, so that extension authors would only have to rewrite their stuff once.

This is what I think is happening right now. The bloodshed is starting.

These OC appliances are deployed in ISP racks, and based on the specs they A) aren't cheap to make and B) are probably 4U based on the support of 44 SATA SSD's. I don't work for Netflix or an ISP, but part of the goal is to probably reduce the total expense (since they just GIVE these to ISP's who have enough Netflix traffic) as well as minimize the footprint. A single 100Gbe connection could easily plug right into an ISP's core router or distribution switch and take up minimal space in a datacenter, but you'd need to eat 3 40Gbe ports to get the same performance and X*2U amount of extra rack space to give a horizontal solution.

Wow, we have a club. A similar thing happened to me a year ago; not as dramatic as your story, but my girlfriend left me a few weeks before I was going to propose to her (she never really did explain why). The relationship felt so perfect from the beginning that I never even considered the possibility that we wouldn't get married. I was caught completely by surprise. I'm 37 now, and it took 15 years of dating to meet someone I had no reservations about spending the rest of my life with, so it's easy to convince myself that I lost my only shot at happiness. I also moved around a lot over the last 10 years so I don't have any friends now. The last 12 months have felt like an eternity. There are only two things keeping me alive right now: one, my dogs make me feel like I'm not completely alone; and two, I started dumping all of my energy into skill training, and I'm getting so much better at everything I enjoy doing. I tried dating a few months ago but it was just a string of terrible experiences, so I'm in full hermit mode now.

I don't think that was costcopizza's intention. As someone who has struggled with severe depression for a long time, I can attest to his suggestion being helpful.

Yeah, it would be a bit “too colonial” to respect the results of either of the last two status referenda, or the multiple requests of the elected governing bodies of PR to abide by the previous one; clearly, maintaining Puerto Rico’s subject status with no vote in the federal government that it is subject to despite all those things is the non-colonial thing to do.

Or...maybe that's the exact opposite of what is going on.

"Actually I'd argue that it's more important because the government doesn't support it."

A considerable number of Catalans don't support it either.

When you have an 'unofficial referendum' - likely to be boycotted or ignored by those not support of it - you can possibly arrive at a situation wherein the 'majority of votes cast' opted for independence, but wherein this is not remotely an accurate reflection of the actual populations wishes.

In politics, there's no such thing as 'a referendum that has no legal binding' - the results of the referendum, however inaccurate, will be used by political activists the world over as 'claims of legitimacy'.

Either there is a clear, unambiguous, clearly worded, properly managed referendum (with some kind of legal status i.e. 'not binidng' or 'binding' or whatever) - or there is nothing.

De-facto partisan-managed referendums are not good.

We know the brain and associated sensor behaviours are too large for us to fully simulate in a reasonable way on anything resembling current hardware (We also can't fully model it but as we approached the size of hardware to do so we'd probably solve many of the problems of doing so). So which hacks and shortcuts do you want to apply to reduce the dimensionality to something runnable? Step 1) will take far too long so AI research looks for things it can do well in the category of 2) without being a full simulation. Deep Learning has been unreasonably effective here.
