> The EU is co-ruled by an opaque system of non elected bodies

The EU council (comprising of democratically elected heads of government from the 28 member countries)

The EU parliament (comprising of directly elected MEPs from the 28 member countries)

The EU commission president, nominated by the council, approved by the parliament, and standing on a ticket to be EU Commission president during the parliamentary elections

The EU commissioners, appointed by the democratically elected heads of government from the 28 members

Laws are only passed by agreement by the democratically elected council and the democratically elected MEPs.
With Clojure the approach is to use REPL driven development. It's tightly integrated with the editor, and any time you write a function you run it to see that it's doing what you intended. Because you're evaluating code as you're writing it, there's generally no confusion regarding what the code is doing. [1]

Meanwhile, immutability as the default makes it natural to structure applications using independent components. This helps with the problem of tracking types in large applications as well. You don't need to track types across your entire application, and you're able to do local reasoning within the scope of each component. You make bigger components by composing smaller ones together, and you only need to know the types at the level of composition which is the public API for the components.

Spec [2] is a contract system that's often used to define API boundaries in Clojure. I find it provides an advantage over static typing because it directly focuses on semantic correctness. For example, consider a sort function. The types can tell me that I passed in a collection of a particular type and I got a collection of the same type back. However, what I really want to know is that the collection contains the same elements, and that they're in order. This is difficult to express using most type systems out there, while trivial to do using Spec.

Spec also facilitates stuff like hoogle [3].

Yes, you can, but this approach is better. Pearson would beat CHM on very small CPU's (8-16bit) and it is not guaranteed to find a good permutation. With CHM it's much easier.

Your rhetorical questions about ‘why isn’t it natural’ have been researched. Turns out there is indeed a natural and safe speed for given road conditions, and a high percentile of drivers will stay within that envelope.

The traps are when townships set speed limits well below the envelope, a speed that is unnatural.

A classic example is rural interstate highway, when the limit will drop from 75 to 55 because of “population density” even when the density is far from the highway and not traffic-interactive, then sit their local law enforcement on the highway to selectively pull over out of town / out of state “speeders”. Let’s be clear - there is no safety element to this practice.

A similar thing happens on rural roads at “town” boundaries. Classic examples in, say, Vermont, with winding mountain roads and natural speed limits. Hit an “incorporated” town that got itself a cop car, and you suddenly have a speed limit 15 - 20 mph below the rest of the road, with the first sign just around a tight corner, and the camera or cop sitting right there. The only safety difference in the road is the legal incorporation status of the town, nothing “natural” about that.

Please don’t take my word for any of this, it’s been researched.

Brexit has nothing to do with the functioning of the EU, it’s a byproduct of a broken political culture. British politicians failed at their jobs for 20 years and then blamed others for it, simple as that. The EU could have been the most enlightened organisation on the planet, and the result would have been precisely the same.
That's a completely baseless assumption. I have not found the need to write any more tests in Clojure than I have in statically typed languages. The only tests my team ends up writing tend to be end-to-end specification tests, and you would want to have those in any serious project regardless of type discipline.

That's not true -- I comment on HN but lurk everywhere else. The reason for this is, first, time commitment (I can really only be part of one online community at a time, although I do read other forums on occasion), and, second, I find discussions here more civil, comments more relevant, and emotions less charged than on other platforms.

In truth the polarizing of the Internet is causing a lot of us to be lurkers who may have things to say but do not want to engage in emotional content with strangers, because everything is interpreted so emotionally these days.

Wait, why would capital gains make less of a difference? New York does not have a separate capital gains tax -- it's taxed at the same rate as regular income. It makes zero difference to the article's analysis if your income comes from investments or ordinary income (in fact, I would think that the NY vs FL difference is probably even more tempting to someone with capital gains income even if the raw dollar amount is the same).

You've also mixed up your before and afters for NYC when you tried to copy from the chart (NYC became more expensive after the new law, Miami became less expensive). The difference before the new law was about 700k, and the difference after the new law is about 1.2m. As the article says, the difference between taxes in Miami and NYC has gotten $450,000/year worse with the new law, not $100,000 worse.

I think you're probably right about the overall impact being small, however.

Pretty much all of the Apple core frameworks and it's unrealistic to think everything will be rewritten in Swift in the next few years. Besides that, you have countless applications for MacOS/iOS that are profitable and will be maintained for the foreseeable future.

I guess your point was "what is the relevance of Obj-C outside of the apple ecosystem?" and the answer to that you already know: pretty much none. But given that the apple ecosystem isn't going anywhere anytime soon, Obj-C will continue to be used for better or worse.

Swift on the other hand will gain all the relevance that Obj-C is losing within this ecosystem and it also has the potential of gaining a lot of relevance outside of apple as well (although it's not there yet).
There is a cost to businesses in complying with and implementing regulations, regardless of the size of the business and how good or bad their behaviour has been with respect to the intention of those regulations. You can't deny over-regulation by assuming only the badly-behaving people are burdened by it.

Besides, there is also a cost to me: the never-ending pop-ups and acceptance dialogues, inability to access information in a straightforward manner for those that choose to block, etc.

Thanks for the reply, links, and details!

Regarding BGP, it seems that the basic protocol and implementations are okay. ("No implementation allowed BGP OPENs with the wrong AS or from non-configured peer to reach BGP ESTABLISHED state—as a result, TCP spoofing is required to inject data", and when you can spoof TCP between routers ... it's probably too late anyway. In a peering scenario between ASes people either use a direct cable, a separate VLAN or other direct "transport", in a IXP the IXP operates a big switching fabric and the peers exchange traffic over that, but the BGP sessions use fixed IPs and basically they are fixed to switch ports, and even if currently not every IXP monitors the spoofing/abuse of those, it is easy and they should be doing so. Sure, the reality is always bleaker, but that's security. Maybe next-next-next gen will have crypto built in so far down the stack that without a shared secret no packets will flow. But then humans will just put the PSK on a bright sticker, or will continue to use "chang3me" for decades.)

The problems I heard with it is that Tier1 providers just can't really filter the routes they get from downstreams, as they'd have to know which Tier2 handles which prefixes for which clients and so on. Though I'm not convinced they are putting much effort into it, as it's easier to just plug in big Cisco boxes and set up peering with your core and your downstream customers and call it a day. (And setting up is always messy already, so it's sort of understandable that there are no easy and custom solutions for somehow verifying announcements from whatever databases.)
If it's defined as loosely as you state, it will benefit big players:

- Small organizations can't support repeatedly going to court argue that they are not "organizing" nor "promoting" content in "large" amounts.

- Small organizations can't take the path to being large that youtube or pornhub did. These now host mostly licensed content, because content producers were forced to go along. They can no longer be forced, and a barrier to entry has been thus erected.
> It is unfair to legitimate companies who do their best to make sure their content really is original or properly licensed.

On the other hand, it could be said that it is unfair to new companies and rewards those who _already_ broke the rules. They already broke the rules, so it would be unfair to stop them from continuing to be broken is a bad argument, but it has to be a consideration when entrenching existing companies (as they can absorb the compliance costs).

I'm not really sure what the correct answer is, as allowing an ongoing harm to continue is clearly untenable[1], but you have to ask if this is really accomplishing the ends we want to achieve, and is it the right way to do it.

I think the quote, "The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation" applies well to you. I never finished Walden but that quote hit me in the guts many years ago.

I'm someone who lives in perpetual worry and it was something that I inherited from my parents. While I'm naturally lazy, a procrastinator, and completely unambitious; the sheer worry during my younger years forced me to try harder.

As a head of household one thing I've come to accept is that it's a role that comes with perpetual worry. It can't be helped.

The only way to mitigate it somewhat is to live well-beneath one's means.

And the only ones who don't worry about disaster looming around a corner are like Aesop's grasshopper.

A lot of them just won't exist then. Many of those communities aren't organized enough to self-host, and if you can't run ads whoever's hosting it on their personal server is going to eat the cost of hosting it, and getting to the point of running it as a foundation like Wikimedia is going to be hard.

But maybe there'll be some meta-foundation like a fanbase version of Wikimedia that'll bring these all under their umbrella, or more likely sites like Wikia will just be hosted commercially by fans in the US blocking EU IPs and fans will need to use proxies or VPNs to browse them.
> impossible to be both "not racist, nor sexist" _and_ against "positive discrimination".

So people are racists and sexists if they disagree to the political view of affirmative action? This is what create polarization in society.

I have often said that I would enjoy to watch what happen if we had a simple law that required all official gender segregated places of employments to impose affirmative action. Here in Sweden there are equally amount of women and men employed, so for every place there is a male dominance there is an other that is female dominated. It actually happen that the extremest gender segregated profession is female dominated, as is the only university level program that is 100% mono-gender. It happens that 87.5% of the population, both women and men, work in a gender segregated profession and thus around 90% of work places would be required to implement affirmative action if we had a common law that equally apply to all citizen, women and men.

Are you against making affirmative action a common law? If so, is it you or I that are sexist?

Emacs.
Although IDEs like VSCode are lean, pretty and fast. I don't want to switch IDE if I switch my programming language.

> But the fact that many American newspapers, for example, are blocked in Europe is certainly something to worry about.

There's just one large company that decided to block EU visitors: Tribune Publishing[0]. Yes, them blocking Europe is bad. Them owning so many local newspapers that this decision even makes an impact is a bigger problem.

I'm not saying that they're the only ones blocking Europe, but I am saying that we wouldn't think of it to be as wide spread if it weren't for Chicago Tribune, Baltimore Sun, and LA Times (among others).

Yes, that was to some extent the point of using the same representation for code and data (homoiconicity) in Lisp - the ability to edit the code from inside itself. I'm not sure how widely this is used outside the macro system and development environments.
>The cost function to repeat a message drops precipitously every time it’s repeated (influences status quo).

I'm not trying to be a contrarian on this point but some social forums (e.g.: reddit, where this was linked from) end-up being sgemented into their own forms of echo-chambers, where any dissenting outliers - however valid - are voted into oblivion, simply because it doesn't agree with "muh viewpoint".

IMHO, that reinforces status quo, rather than influences it. I realise that this mightn't be the case with all or even the majority of social forums but it's the loudest that gets the most attention and since we're discussing something directly linked from redditstan, I figured it worth mentioning (since the aspect of influencing the status quo angle crumbles in this specific regard).

To give an example: Create an account on reddit and comment a valid point in the donald, even if it's down-voted into oblivion, go and then comment on something in politics or worldpolitics or the like. Wait for someone to go look at your post history and see that you commented in the donald and watch the tide turn against you, simply because of your participation - even if that comment is directly contradictory the original post in the donald. Just by association, that influence of the status quo is immediately eroded way because it's deemed "invalid" because, again, "muh viewpoint".

Any possibility of influence is lost, at that point. Repeat it day and night, it won't eventually influence the status quo until enough people repeat it and I think that's, probably, more along the lines of what you meant: It's not the number of times it's repeated, it's the volume of that repition's saturation into the larger group that's intrinsically more important. A single person repeating a message over 30 years has far less weight than people (en masse) repeating the same message. Granted, it - sometimes -takes a single person to incite the spread of that message, simply repeating it ad infinum won't reach the end-goal of influencing the status quo.
