So what these countries are currently doing is replacing the "Russian Empire" by the "NATO Empire" (NATO/US invasion) instead of simply turning into a democracy and asking people how they want to live.
It’s about Europe choosing sovereignty over their own international politics rather than cow towing to the US. It’s not the EU preferring Iran over the US
Cool! Congratulations on cool job.

I'm jealous. I always wanted to do something like that, but my eyes suck.
I don't think we've been a bully so much as the rich kid that indirectly paid people to be their friend. I think Trump is accurate in pointing out that many of our arrangements are detrimental to the US on the first level, but at the same time those arrangements, and the unstated threat of their removal, is what gave the US the power to arbitrarily exert its influence. This became even more true as other nations started to take those arrangements as a given and became reliant upon them.

In the grand scheme of things I'm also happy the rest of the world seems to be becoming less dependent on the US. It removes single point of failure scenarios. Economies and nations keeping each other more at arm's reach would help ensure the world acts in a more democratic fashion while simultaneously also providing insulation against the failing of any given nation's poor decisions - be those social, political, economic, or military.
Youtube sucks because you cannot turn the phone screen off and listen only the audio. But I use "youtube-dl -x" to extract audio in my home server. I listen many "podcasts" in various languages this way.

Besides which - what is Macron going to do if half the board of BNP Paribas is arrested when they land on US soil for sanctions busting? Invade?

This is just factually wrong. There is great beliefe in some groups about economic sanctions but economists and political sientists mostly agree about this, it not.

The data is pretty clear on this, it does not lead to regimn change or whatever else the country wants.

Now people will claim that the Iran deal is a counterexample, but it is not. I was the US who realied that their sanction had no effect on the nuclear program was going fast. The US then compromised even more.

The US is very good at making sanctions, but bad at removing them.

The way the do it in the Iran case is directly and clearly against all the international laws the US claims to stand for.

Its a sad state of affairs when Iran observes international law and the US spits on it.
Ask the other question: Why make it secret? Suppose there is a goal, call it X.

Do you think thirty-some countries could negotiate establishing a new international organisation without the US learning about it? I think not, therefore it's better to try to achieve X without secrecy.

That sounds like a good theory from our comfortable, affluent office chairs... until you think about it for approximately five seconds.

Would you rather have the children decide what they should learn in school, or the injured decide how their wound should be dressed? A fundamental aspect of our society's advancement is that we have become specialists: we almost all wear socks but very few of us would know how to make them. And even if we could, we wouldn't be able to make them quite so efficiently.

The poor—or the middle class, or the rich—shouldn't have to decide how they are being informed about the world any more than they should be expected to decide which type of stitching is used to assemble their socks.
I think it's the opposite of choosing, they are taking a measure to help their companies to privately trade with Iran so that they don't have to make choices between the USA and Iran.

Politically though, it's very interesting, right? But I hope that we are not discussing that sort of politics here on HN because it rarely produces a good discussion.
That's quite a clever solution.

It does not. People who work these jobs and work in overly dense areas like SV or NY cannot afford to live there - except if they live at their parent's...with 50.

I remember watching a video by Techmoan or Technology Connections or LGR about a system that stored images as video frames on a video disc.

There seems to be no motion blur on that image (from shooting with portable video camera from a moving car), so maybe part of this archive was shot with said technology.
Yes, probably -- before digital cameras, there were still video cameras. They used a CCD to record still video images onto magnetic media such as a video floppy disk. So a lot like a digital camera, but fully analog.

Ideas do not only come from creativity. Creativity is a shortcut but ideas can be mechanically generated. You can analyze a niche market and identify gaps, statistically, and address the ones which will return value.

He doesn't need tips. He needs a process to find a market data set and analyze it for profit opportunities. The amount of untouched data in the world tells me that it's really a matter of time, hardwork, and intelligence, rather than creativity.
So there's the phenomenon of bit rot. Filesystems like ZFS add data checksums, and they recommend you to scrub the data once in a while, and then when errors are detected you are supposed to restore from a replica/backup (whether restoration happens automatically or manually is besides the point; the point is that a replica/backup is required in order to restore).

Why can't error correction codes be used instead of replicas/backups, as the primary means to recover from bitrot? (NOTE: I am talking about the primary means; obviously a backup is still necessary for more serious forms of disaster recovery. I am not advocating abolishing backups altogether) That makes it a lot easier for single-disk use cases, e.g. laptops or consumer devices. It also saves space, which is also important because laptop SSDs and phone SD cards aren't that big. A replica doubles the space requirements, while an error correction code is smaller than that.
So we’re just going to dismiss the fact that they used social media to get the tip in the first place?

It’s incredible boot leather investigative journalism in 2018 and doesn’t need to be qualified. What are you? A paper salesman?

Just tried and that certainly seems to be the case. Signing in, or out, of either chrome or website accounts will reflect that action in the other space.
That is because your are looking in the wrong place. Please refer to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action. In the JCPOA sanctions are regulated.

As long as Iran agrees to nuclear restrictions in exchange for the financial benefits of sanctions relief (as agreed in the JCPOA), the other members should be safe from a legal standpoint.

Additionally, the EU Blocking Statute [1] came into force, mitigating any sanctions that the US might impose due to companies trading with Iran.

One “issue” I have with Keep is there is no way to list notes or search notes without a label. And it’s from a search company. It must be hard for them to implement:-) or there is no more resources on Keep, waiting to be out like Inbox.
It was discussed on HN a few days ago: the size of the company is inversely proportional to the quality of their support. After the company reaches a certain size, they can simply afford not to care. Also, in this case it makes more business sense for them. Therefore I prefer to deal with smaller companies.

The java applet's possibility to gently jump over the sandbox fence was probably the most terrifying feature of java which probably put Java on an equal footing as Adobe Flash, i.e. a potentially dangerous browser extension which requires regular updates (Flash and Java updaters were omnipresent in the Microsoft Windows tray in these days, isn't it?) and which the average user does not understand.

That's a pity because both Adobe Flash as well as Java Applets were interesting pieces of software for certain applications. However, due to their availablity they were abused anywhere. I remember some 90s DHTML sites having one Java applet per navigation bar button just because the effect was looking nicely. This was the same kind of bloat we experience with huge JavaScript libraries today. Probably the browser plugins were even easier to control (i.e. disable as a user) as an ubiquitous JavaScript is :-/
But if the means you choose to demonstrate your sovereignty is to defy a new wave of American sanctions on Iran, then you certainly are choosing Iran over the United States, as a brief glance at any recent news headlines will tell you. The current POTUS, and the large number of congressmen who hate Iran with a rather deranged fervour, will certainly interpret it that way.
Sounds about as likely as that EU army that was supposed to make the EU independent of NATO, and thus, the US. How's that working out?

The EU constantly talks about challenging US power (Macron and Merkel in particular), but almost never do. I'm sure this will be more of the same.

The US has different legal requirements for cars to the ECE standards used by most of the rest of the world (US protectionism? Surely not). Unless Citroen / PSA renter the US market and make a special US variant, they won’t be legal until the car is 25 years old and qualifies for an exception.

Baselang.com for any language that isn’t Spanish. The cost structure is amazing and the target market for language learning is huge.

Starfall.com that is actually updated and isn’t still in Adobe Flash. It’s practically abandoned but the whole school licences are expensive. That’s real passive income.

I think the best translation of "trivial" when used amongst mathematicians is that it is something you should be able to figure out with your current knowledge without too much difficulty (though it might require an hour of thought). Said in another way, you don't need to learn/develop new tools or techniques for something that is trivial.

Of course this is not when most people think when they hear the word so really it's a term of art that should probably be avoided when talking to non-mathematicians.
