The only way this targets non-European businesses is because the litigious nature of US culture seems to lead to this sort of overreaction.

I'm also not sure how a malevolent user is any more incentivised to abuse this than DMCA. The DMCA lets them issue actual legal threats and action. This just allows requests.

The DMCA helps big business at the expense of the general public. This does the reverse. It's no wonder there's been so much noise and scaremongering.

thank you for making it obvious you are arguing in bad faith. Hint: you are more likely to be fined 20 million Euros for violating GDPR than having a drone sent after you for ignoring a DMCA request.

If you actually believe you will have a drone sent after you for violating DMCA or ignoring a letter from the NSA go see a psychiatrist.

You just answered your own question. The cost of compliance is largely a fixed cost. So if only 50% of my users come from the EU, then my per-user costs are 2x what an EU-centric company's would be. So it skews the economics in favor of blocking the EU if your business is not EU-centric. This in turn means users are pushed to EU companies that have no choice but to comply.

Completely besides the point, there are hundreds of different pieces of forum software that may not have that feature implemented.

This sentiment seems to be strongly related to the 'paradox of hedonism'. In short: Pursuing happiness itself may not lead to happiness. Pursuit of something other (greater?) than happiness may in fact result in higher levels of happiness.

"Unfortunately for the hedonist, constant pleasure-seeking may not yield the most actual pleasure or happiness in the long run—or even in the short run, when consciously pursuing pleasure interferes with experiencing it."

Another way to look at this: it takes about as much work to stop someone falling from 3m as it does to launch them 3m in the air. So if you can stop the guy falling, you could instead throw him into the air to the same height. It's not quite that simple (different muscle groups, etc) but a good approximation.

Flinging 50kg to a height of 3m above the release point seems a little high. I'm a fit adult male, although neither an athlete nor a fireman, and I can manage about 15cm. So I think friction is doing a significant part of the work here, likely between the fireman's clothes and the wall or window sill.

Usernames can be identifying, as could other profile information. IP addresses in server logs. Those are easily under your control, and you should mention those as things you process, but also are easy to justify assuming you don't do anything weird with them.

As if he read all laws of his own country that apply to him. Raise your hand if you actually read and comprehend all laws that apply to you. I'm willing to bet there's not a single person on this planet who really reads and comprehends all laws completely.

Usually you just go with common sense and reading a blog post or two when it seems relevant: that usually makes compliant and in the worst case it will get you a warning from the regulator (they give warnings for unintentional first-time violations, so they'll tell you if you're doing wrong and it bothers them enough (usually you're too small anyway), and you get a chance to improve).

These seem to be unintended side effects. From the example it seems the vanilla versions behaviour is what the author wants.
It's probably partially that devices are tested individually, and a large collection of compliant devices can put out quite a bit of total RF. This isn't just a cryptocurrency mining problem; even before that was invented, the total RF emissions of our modern technological society had already pushed up the RF noise floor substantially. HF ham radio is often near-unusable in urban areas and licensed UHF/VHF business radio users have had to push up their power compared to what was previously allowed in order to get the range they need.
Well, git status doesn’t show unpushed changes from other branches but when I deploy, I normally go into the deployment branch and run git status there. So the unpushed changes in other branches would be quite insignificant.

But everyone’s workflow is different. The author maybe should have added a reason why he uses that instead of git status
Yup, exact same on my S7.
So that's why my 512mb phone keeps crashing on OOM
It first performs a git status, then fetches changes from upstream, and checks if all local changes have been pushed upstream (using git cherry).
Ok, so that would be a difference. Showing all unpushed changes from all branches.

Seems unusual that all branches are involved in deployment though. Isn't the typical workflow that only one branch get's deployed to the user facing machine?
This is so true. A silly example. If you give a child a big bag of sweets all in one go he/she will be very happy for a little bit. But he cannot "consume" that happiness all in one go. The child's happiness level is saturated. So if you spread out the giving of sweets, the kid gets a constant trickle of smaller happy moments. Overall after all the sweets have gone, the kid who got given the sweets one by one, would extract more overall happiness from that bag than the one who had it all in one go.
I get it became a way to sync all your mobile devices with a music and apps library, along a music player and music/mobile app store (which, I agree, should all be moved to the App Store and become a "Store"), but that's the extent of my usage of it and it's mostly fine (apart from the fact it's becoming harder to manage my music library - I ripped all my CDs back when my Mac had a DVD drive).

So far, the stillborn features don't bother me that much.

It's heavy and should be lighter, with the features not being used quietly swapped out and remaining there - it seems like it's trying to reanimate the parts that are not in use all the time and that may be the root cause of the humongous memory footprint.

Moving the store and sync out would somewhat make things better, but Windows users would need to run 3 apps instead of one.
CSS has poor defaults, but you can't break backwards compatibility on the web. Check out this gist [0], which sets far more sensible defaults for flexbox. I took it from css-layout, which was later renamed to yoga [1]. Everyone I've convinced to try it out has told me that they found it much more intuitive. It makes things work the way you'd expect them to!

I'd be genuinely interested in hearing about your experiences with other layout and styling languages or tools, and what you like about them. I used to hate on CSS a lot, but eventually changed my view and grew to like it, and I think given its history it's actually quite good. I haven't had much in-depth experience with native alternatives, but when I've tried em out I usually found they each have their own shortcomings. For example, on macOS I'd say Auto Layout is certainly easier when getting started, but as soon as you want to create your own components from scratch it becomes rather challenging.

As for styling a container based on what it contains, if you know of any examples which showcase good execution of this idea I'd also love to check em out. I know of at least two proposals / libraries which are attempts at tackling that problem in CSS; take a look at CSS-Element-Queries [2] and EQCSS [3].

When is it getting it's own thread scheduler and bootloader?
Nope, you can smooth that out by moving power east to west. 1000 miles is ~two time zones and has minimal transmission costs. Get their solar in the morning and give them some solar in the evening and you can kill off one bump at each end. Continental US is 4 time zones wide so you only have a morning bump on the east coast and an evening bump on the west coast to deal with. Extra cheap wind capacity in the middle of the US can provide power for either bump.

It's really more about corruption than anything else. PG&E still charges vastly increased rates in California despite huge drops in wind and solar prices.

I'm curious what the workflow is here.

A feature branch is mature enough to get merged into master. So I merge it into master on the staging server. And then push it to the public server.

You've confused a couple things. Your subject says phone but the body of your text just talks about using Google services and websites.

It's not just Google that knows this stuff, if they won't be the ones that knows it someone else will. OS level analytics are a good thing. Games have a fair bit of data that goes to the devs on phones and PCs. Free online accounts it should just be a given that stuff is happening with your data.
I didn't see any question in there. My answer though is: respond to the request (which shouldn't be as hard as some are making out), but don't worry about fines unless you've been misusing the data or repeatedly ignoring warnings.
But in this context it really doesn't work well as an analogy.

Few rich people have any inclination to sleep rough, whereas many wealthy tech companies have been happily selling their users' data as the law allowed it.

Unpopular opinion: Please not another builtin high-level UI for the web, none of the native platforms got their 'system UI' right either, and there will never be a single UI solution for all problems.

Radical, overly optimistic suggestion: Reduce the browser to 2D+3D canvas, audio (not WebAudio please, too over-engineered), input, networking (...) and implement everything higher level on top of those thin platform abstraction APIs in JS+wasm modules that are loaded ond demand. Put the current HTML APIs into such modules as well for backward compatibility.
Yes, so this is useful where deployment is "manual" in the sense that it is not a mere git push. It is bad practice to have git data lying around among otherwise public files, so you have to either set up git hooks on the public server, or fine-tune your public server access rights. Both require (slightly) more work than simply not pushing the git data in the first place.
> in germany the ard has tons of data about everybody

Your name, address, move-in date, and whether you paid them. Additionally – if you don't to pay twice – who you live with. Am I missing anything? In any case, they are still bound by the same GDPR as we all are.

(A small nitpick: The ARD does not hold any data but their members do.)

Physical pain perhaps - I'd imagine the herding onto the beach still involves a fair amount of terror for the poor beasts.

Thankfully most of the world views whaling as a shameful throwback to less enlightened times; I look forward to the days when the remaining holdouts see the light.
A lot of the US over reaction to the GDPR probably stems from the fact that they assume that Europe has a system where parties sue each other, the jury system, as opposed to the state suing parties, the inquisitorial system.

Getting sued in Europe is a huge deal, getting sued in the US is part of doing business.

While it is true, that today the subsidy from Denmark is minor relative to Faroese GDP, to a point where one might wonder why they need the money at all? (Besides, I don't think I made any actual specific references to that subsidy.)

The infrastructure, I am referring to, was built several decades ago (with the exception of some newer additions that was built by the Faroese themselves, like the Norðoyatunnilin), at a time where the Faroese GDP was much lower.

In particular, Denmark had to bail out the Faroese Islands during their financial crisis from 1989 to 1995, through loans.

When I say 'reliant' on Denmark, I don't mean in direct financial terms. I mean in terms of foreign, military and judicial dependence. In 2005, Denmark gave the Faroese government permission to establish Faroese missions within Danish embassies. That's a huge advantage to them, being able to use existing Danish infrastructure for their foreign endeavours.

Indeed, the agreement of 2005, the so-called "Fámjin Declaration", has practically eased tensions between Denmark and the Faroese Islands, and calls for independence gets very little press time any more.

And lastly, the subsidy you refer to is just the subsidy in direct cash from the Danish government, there are several other ways Denmark supports the Faroese, both nationally and internationally, which value would probably be far larger than the subsidy itself. To summarise; it is an advantage for the Faroese Islands to remain part of the Kingdom of Denmark.

> The GDPR seems to me to be just another example of nontechnical authorities trying to regulate what they don't understand.

Either you are against any laws at all and believe that corporations could provide physical security and wage wars, or you are misinformed.

If you gossip about me behind my back, is it wrong of me to ask what you told others about me? If you are a company sharing my data with other companies, should I not be allowed to demand to know with whom you're sharing my data?

If you process personal data of millions of people, wouldn't it make sense that you have to have someone in charge of watching out for their data?

If you want to track people to create profiles of them, should you not ask them whether they're actually okay with that, rather than doing it secretly?

If you accidentally lose my data and hackers could be stealing my identity or using my password, should I not be told?

These are the things covered by GDPR, or previously, the data protection directive, cookie law and the data leak reporting laws. For example, the previous cookie law was also deemed a stupid idea by a tech-illiterate government, because lots of websites started popping up cookie walls and everyone got annoyed. But the truth is, the websites with cookie walls are the ones who want to do extensive profiling beyond any normal visitor count trackers or login systems or whatever. Of course they should inform you about that.

GDPR is not much more than common sense should already tell you to do. But since corporations are not people and do not have a collective conscience, it has to be codified in laws.
