> What it will effectively mean is that many websites won't bother allowing access from the EU anymore.

The ideal approach is to disregard the EU's laws if you aren't governed by them (or don't have a very good reason to comply with them). What Web sites should do instead, is to not comply or censor, unless they are legally forced to under the jurisdiction of the EU.

There is nothing the EU can do to me, as an American Internet business owner, to force me to comply with their GDPR or this new filter law. They would stand no chance in an American court. The sole means to cut off EU users from my services is to put up a Chinese firewall in the EU and 1984 the people there behind it.

Sites & operators in Canada, or Brazil, or Australia, or Mexico, or Singapore etc are no more required to comply with EU privacy rules, as they are to obey the US Bill of Rights (or, the new California privacy law). Every site outside the US doesn't have to suddenly comply with California's privacy laws, or the privacy laws of Rhode Island. Acting from a practical basis, it strictly depends on whether you need to do business there. No average site can comply with every law in every town, city, state, province, country, zone, region, union around the world.

You can freely take on / allow access to EU users and entirely disregard the wishes of bureacrats in the EU, so long as you don't hold assets in the EU or do business in the EU. They largely have no means to enforce their policies outside of the EU, exactly as it should be.
Even though parent is true, don't get the picture that it's just PHP/MySQL. I've seen and written Lua code on top of Openresty for a custom CDN authorization layer fe. Also Node is getting more and more common.

The problem with Go and the like is that you shoot yourself in the foot regarding recruiting. An exotic tech stack really narrows the already small pool of people willing to work for an adult company.
>Any website with a comments section (hey, this one included) would need to extensively monitor all posts by the public to ensure no one posts anything copyrighted.

Even this concedes too much. Suppose machine learning gets really good and it became effortless to monitor posts for infringing content? We'd still be deploying tools that control, constrain, and chill internet activity in haunting ways, and that's not a direction we should go.

To me, that is the problem, not the practical difficulty of implementing the rule, which implicitly admits that it's right.
The level is "are you actually making an effort".

It's intentionally vague, because these laws only ever come into play if someone really messes up or is intentionally being deceptive..

If you set an exact limit or try and set exact definitions, people try and use them to create loopholes.. which I personally find to be a very American thing to do.

If you're actively making an effort trying to filter content, you have nothing to worry about. If it can be shown that you're intentionally trying to game the system, you can land in trouble.

It's pretty simple, really.
It looks like this is subject to the decision in Wunderlich v Germany which appears to be ongoing; I had no idea that homeschooling was illegal in Germany, it's perfectly legal in the UK provided that the parents provide adequate education.
In the case of Pinterest that would be hugely ironic?

Well, no, that's not terrorism. At least not in terms of criminal charges[0].

I would honestly like to see how this holds up against Electron in performance. I know that may be setting the bar a bit low, considering one is a bundled chromium, and this just seems to interact with UI libraries directly.

Thought I don't know if PHP would be my first pick if I wanted to develop a desktop application. Then again Electron, and JS wouldn't be either.
I once posted a timelapse video of my commute on facebook and people were calling me out for not blurring license plates. This guy just walks around all day live streaming the life of random people ? How is that not a clear violation of privacy rules ? Disclaimer: Am European.
Just a note to add to the racist sibling comment. The stuff about cousin marriage is hysteria from people who don't understand the probability calculus. It's possible for P(child_of_cousin_marriage|abnormality) to be quite high without P(abnormality|child_of_cousin_marriage) being much greater than P(abnormality) -- as in fact it isn't.
I’m not dismissing the volume of quality of their contributions. I just don’t think they are so critically needed that Linux and its satellite projects couldn’t quickly recover if they stopped contributing (which was the GP’s question).
Oh man, I read this and realize how fortunate I was to never move to California! I've had it so good in the Mid-Atlantic and now the Midwest. My take on all things like this is if your plan is putting you through hell, make a new plan.

Ageism is a thing here, too, but there are now so many Boomers retiring that suddenly companies have been eager to hire in a fashion I have not seen in quite awhile. I'm about to start at a Fortune 10 company and I'll be a Tech Lead at age 45 and we'll see where that goes. I've never been much for being a ladder climber as I'm fairly well off (not quite confident enough to FIRE yet) but working a lot of hours has never really appealed to me because of that. In five more years I'm going to go do something completely different with my life.

One thing that 20+ years of working in tech has taught me is that the industry as a whole is a giant boondoggle--it's at least 80% hype. It's about greasy MBAs finding ways to make loads of money using the talents of techies while heaping on mountains of bs. I did work at a couple of startups in past years, they were okay, but one folded and another got bought out by Carl Icahn and I left soon after that as I was not part of the inner circle of people who made out well on that deal.

I also tried my hand at starting my own business a couple of different times, but found that it's not for me--my ideas weren't that great and the stress of putting in all that work just ate me up. I'm not a Steve Jobs type of character and not good at lying to people. There were other issues, too: Patents. The world of IP is a minefield, and I won't say anymore than that. One of my colleagues from a past job made out very well with his startup, he created a DevOps tool that is very well known right now. I'm very happy for him and to have known someone who made it.
Scale's not massive, it's not a huge product. During peak times (focused on renewal season for a utility) we get thousands of API requests a minute.

When we first started with Node.js, it was pretty bleeding edge to run as a production app, and we started with just a small microservice. It worked beautifully, and we found that our "silos" of frontenders and backenders was really helped. Everyone could review at least all the code in javascript.

Debugging can be annoying on production, but having run Ruby and PHP products before, we found it no worse (but not better).

A lot of people find it uncomfortable how fast the ecosystem moves but we don't really mind. It's kind of just the way it is. Just the right fit for our company since we as a culture like more recent things.

Although as well, I want to say, Node.js and javascript in general has grown in utility and functionality by leaps and bounds in a few years, not to mention the sugar and developer happiness.

I would really recommend Node.js in a small startup especially where small dev teams need to work closer together and really understand what each other is doing.
This is awesome. I usually do the same thing, only manually. That's how I came up with some of my favorite domains. I also accidentally stumbled upon blackmail.io doing this. At that moment I wasn't looking for single words, and infact was thinking of "black" and "mail". Lucky run, I guess.
Most people got over it, but it's hard to estimate if people actually "got over it". Looking at the behavior of the people using the site afterwords probably doesn't include[1] the people that left. In Q&A at the end of the talk they mention that the incident caused a significant drop in paid-account revenue[2]. They eventually recovered, but the exodus was real for a while.

[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survivorship_bias

[2] They also mentioned that some of the loudest people that left came back later under a different username. That's the lesson the talk is trying to explain: most people probably do like (or will eventually like) the benefits of the "new and improved" version, so involve them in the process and respect that they might just need some time to adapt. Forcing people to adapt immediately only associates the new version with a strongly negative experience.
I remember attending most of my middle school (6th & 7th grade) in "modules". Which is really just a fancy term for a trailer. There were probably 5-10 of them adjacent to the parking lot. It's how they handled the fact that our town was growing too fast. Still use that method today in between builds.

But that's "wide open spaces" kinda land.
Sorry, just saw this. What was the biggest difference? You are getting me worried :(
IANAL but in the US, you have no (legal) expectation of privacy when you're in a public place / visible from a public place.
`range()` also takes an optional `step` argument which would help here.
I don't think the point was that Wikipedia exclusively documents obscure knowledge that used to be common. Wikipedia obviously contains information about all the things, but shorthand used to be very common and it's funny to see it now observed as a curiosity on HN and referenced on Wikipedia.
Oh that can go so much larger, too. But yeah, spot on.
You're misinformed. A foot as a measurement in 2018 has no more to do with a human foot than a computer chip has to do with a potato-powered calculator. Imperial units have had standard metric translations for a long time.
Brilliant point. Homeless people don't care where they live. Raise awareness at a national governmental level. Remove the homeless to mental hospitals built for the purpose in a remote area. Many businesses that employed 100's of people have relocated to the midwest. Other businesses from the midwest have opened manufacturing facilities in SF for the cheap Asian labor. Pres. Trump is rumored to want to move 50,000 undocumented immigrants to Concord, a suburban sanctuary city near SF where there already is a burden of crime gangs made up of teenage immigrants, an excessive population of welfare recipient residents and a drug problem and housing shortage and excessive rate of teen pregnancy.

> actively making an effort trying to filter content, you have nothing to worry about.

But you do: you have to worry about filtering content. And you can never know whether you've made enough effort.

You have to have a process, and devote human time to it, and (as I understand it) do so proactively rather than just responding to takedown requests.

This is the first I've heard of RKE as a K8s installer. I always just thought it was another name for Rancher 2.0. Would love to see a good comparison of Kubeadm vs RKE. This article briefly mentions kubeadm and that they didn't choose it.
The Horrors of Upgrading Etcd Beneath Kubernetes
From my limited experience, I find some factors affect face-to-face collaborations more than others. For example:

- how introverted is your workforce - a lot of the developers I've worked with are introverts. Whenever new devs join the team it takes a while to integrate the new people. Even with veterans, most of the coworkers prefer Slack over calling for a meeting or walking over to someone's desk (maybe laziness too?)

- how friendly and tolerant are employees who share the same open space? - I've had complaints from a different team that our team was talking too loud and too much, I don't blame them, I find conversations around me distracting too. If we absolutely need to meet now, we need to find a meeting room, so the face-to-face time is now limited by the availability of those meeting spaces

What the EU is doing is no more a killing of the open Web, than what China has done. China's economy will soon surpass the size of the EU, and of course its population post Brexit is 3x that of the EU.

The open Web will persist. Some countries/regions will be part of it, some won't.
I made a mistake in my question. The arguments to group shouldn't have been the same. What I want to get at is when the two branches are completely different code.

Every time a retarded policy comes out of the eu the bandwagon sounds the same tune of “eu finer are proportional and eu bodies are lenient” which is complete bullshit because law stay for hundred years unchanged while the political scenario changes every decade.
As an immigrant from a Muslim majority country into a European country, I find this approach very troubling.

I completely agree that most of the immigrants have a lot of trouble integrating into the host countries but I believe it’s as much as a problem of the hosting culture as it is the of the immigrants coming in.

It’s not just the Muslims, though they might be the most pronounced case (just because the sheer number of immigrants), immigrants from India, China, and even Eastern Europe face similar issues.

Anytime there is going to be a mass immigration to a specific place there is going to be a concentration of immigrant communities in certain places, it happened with the Irish and Italians in the US, and still happening with a lot of different areas in America (Michigan is one of the heaviest populated areas by Christian Arabs). The reason being is that when you first immigrate to a new place it’s a lot easier to stick to the people you know and share behaviors with than to go out and make a new social circle.

However, the culture of the host society plays a big role in the acceptance of foreigners, for example, people in the US and Canada are usually a perceived to be lot friendlier than most typical Western Europeans, it’s a lot easier to chit-chat with an American than to a Dutch, German, or French person..., It is also very easy to get to know people in the US, meanwhile unless you’ve really gotten to know each other it’s very difficult to get close to a typical European. Norwegians usually joke that if two people get on the bus one of them is going to set at the front and the other all the way in the back.

Another culture tidbit that could contribute to this is that conformity plays a very huge part in the European culture, and they just confirm to a very different set of values than the ones where these immigrants are coming from, find someone walking naked down the street, that’s completely normal but finding a women wearing burqa on a beach and suddenly a lot of heads are turning. Although this might also happen in the US but with the American stress on individualism it’s always reassuring that it’s OK to be who you are, rather than the typical European mindset of why don’t you just take it off and be like everyone else.

Also The Hollywood effect, immigrants coming to America usually have a base understanding of what to expect coming in from watching movies, TV shows or even the news and are usually touched in one way or another by the American culture, meanwhile it’s very difficult to understand the culture subtleties when you don’t understand the language and haven’t been exposed to this culture before and add that to the stress on conformity as mentioned before and very quickly you become an outcast in your social circle.

My point is that brute forcing people to integrate is simply the incorrect approach to solve this issue, culture intricacies needs to be studied and incompatibilities with the immigrant and host culture needs to be addressed to reach an effective solution, otherwise what you’ll have is a very angry socially inept minority that could sing Jingle bells.
They need to be moved out of the city to an area with gov't shelters built to house them. We need Rudy Giuliani here.

I'd love to see that list as well. I imagine that in different times and places that this factoid has been true for a number of books. I read the same thing, and find it very believable, about "Dr. Chase's Recipes" (https://www.ebay.com/bhp/dr-chase). I tend to see copies of it more commonly than Walton's book in used book stores in the US.

I remember looking at the Wikipedia history of the Nancy Pearl history and discovered, to my amusement, that a librarian at the State Library of NSW had carefully started editing her page, and a bunch of other library related pages.
Isn't one of the main caveats of the first amendment that you can't say "Fire" or "Bomb" in a crowded theater?

As someone who watches live streams normally, it's weird to see the clashing of the online world with its disdain for social norms and encouragement of casual racism mix in with the normal day to day lives of people. A future where a good chunk of people walking on the streets are disconnected from the people around them and instead are trying to please a faceless mob which demands that life constantly be reality TV is a weird one to think about but I honestly believe that this is a future that is possible.
The Gift of 24 Hours
This would be cool (I guess) if jamming random animals into domains made sense. It's not like "rabbit" and "chimp" were chosen at random. They symbolize the product.
Thank you! I've found myself doing it manually too, which is where the drive for this came from. I think I would use it even if someone else had made it, if that makes sense
I just took a job in a long established financial company specifically because they had cube farms. I can confirm it’s a thousand times better than the open offices I’ve worked at previously.

I won’t take any job with an open office floor plan for the rest of my career. The stress of environmental oppression (noise, people cramped together, close quarters, etc) is just not worth it.

I am much happier now.
Wikipedia is an American service. EU legislators should not stop until every major American service is destroyed or at least kicked out of Europe. GDPR is a good first step; proposed copyright legislation is the next one. There's no place for American hegemony and corporate greed in Europe.
If you're thinking AR (Glass wasn't AR really) then Leap are apparently open sourcing their development rig http://blog.leapmotion.com/north-star-open-source/

Can't vouch for it because I haven't dug in yet.
I do not get what is purpose of this? Write and what? Is the purpose to share? Or the purpose primarily is to “capture” the thought? If it is the latter, I think getting on web and accessing a URL is a good path to distraction.
Even then, linked lists are only faster than arrays if the list has at least 100s of items.
> otherwise they're liable for all copyright infringement of any linked page?

No, of course not. Like I said above, the "link tax" part (article 11) has nothing to do with linking. But even if it would, it still wouldn't have anything to do with the content filter law part (article 13). They're two completely separate things.

Honestly I think the noise and chaos of open offices are positives to executives because it creates the appearance of work.

I follow some of the executives of the company I work at (we have an open office) and they are constantly posting pictures of "teamwork and collaboration" that just have a bunch of people standing around each others desks talking. They see all the movement and noise and they love that it seems like everybody is hard at work, collaborating and discussing problems etc. But if you look a little closer, the people doing actual work are hunched over their desks with huge headphones on, and everybody standing around are either not talking about anything related to work or they are rehashing discussions that have already happened over IM/email/meetings. I expressed to my manager that I had a hard time working in this environment and would like the chance to work from home a more often but was dismissed because he "likes the open office" and our management has the view that if you are working from home you probably aren't working.

I think the analogy can still make sense if you think about it differently.

A fruit farmer will collect a lot of fruit at once, but me a fruit eater that is only hungry for one fruit don’t want to collect extra fruit.

So instead of shaking the tree and causing more fruit than I need to drop to the ground, I grab for just one.

Because I am lazy I don’t want to bring a ladder to get one piece of fruit. So I reach for the low hanging fruit :)

Likewise, when I program I am looking for one thing to do. And sometimes that leads me to reach for the low hanging fruit there as well. Personally I like to do low hanging fruit as start of the day work only and then try to do something more important for the rest of the day until I get tired.

If the list fits in cache it is often to faster to insert into a dynamic array and shift the elements. It of course depends a bit on the allocator that you use how expensive creating a new list node is.
Funny that we heard so much about net neutrality, but no one seems to care about copyright laws or GDPR.
