a 1500lb boat would be a small fishing boat, and the low side for a 16' runabout. A pontoon boat, sailboat, or watersports boat are going to need 3000lb+ towing capacity; rear wheel drive, and a bigger wheel base. As you approach 25', you need closer to 6000 lbs towing capacity.
Thank you for the reply. I've only recently started becoming interested in cyber security, I participated in my first CTF late last year. I'm still very uninformed about the wider cyber security culture.

Yeah, that's not true. They have said that Qt4 widgets are feature finished, and not being deprecated. Obviously eventually there will be little use of the older way, but they have repeatedly said they are not deprecating them. Believe what you want.
> So the license is closest to GPL than anything.

That's not close to GPL at all. GPL is "if you use our software and modify it and distribute the modifications, you must do it as open source". AGPL is "same as GPL only you must also publish modifications if you're just using it". SSPL is "if you touch our software you must open-source your whole data center". The message here is clearly "don't ever touch our software unless you're already 100% open source shop". GPL never went this far, and for a good reason - nobody in commerce would touch GPLed software with a ten-foot pole if that was the case. People are wary of GPL, but SSPL is taking it to insane length, clearly construed to disable, not enable, it's use.
How would you do this in C++ without string escaping, or extra memory allocation for string processing? Double quotes have to be passed embedded in the arguments passed to the shell.

One way (in C or C++) would be to define constants:

#define DQ "\""

Then instead of "\"blah\" we have DQ "blah" DQ.
Technically true -- which is why my original question was: is there any example of a good cross-platform Qt app?

Of the examples I've seen posted, half have exactly the same weird UI bugs, and the other half turned out to not be Qt at all.

I'll grant that it is possible that Qt is perfectly fine at cross-platform GUIs on all of its supported platforms, and all these poor examples can be explained by (a) these particular developers simply did a poor job, (b) they all failed in the same way (maybe there's a flag to make all Qt controls look and act non-native, which they set by accident?), and coincidentally also (c) everyone writing good cross-platform apps happens to limit their use of Qt to just Windows and Linux, for completely unrelated reasons. I'm of course skeptical, but I grant this is all possible.

Even if so, I maintain that it's still an unnecessary engineering risk to use a tool for a task where you've never before seen it used well and successfully.

Besides, I disagree that bugs like drawing checkboxes wrong (until you resize the window) are "likely an application specific bug". I've never seen any other GUI toolkit mess up drawing checkboxes. That's just fundamental. I don't even know how I could screw that up using any other toolkit.
Maybe so, but I do believe if you're paid in stock (not options) you pay taxes immediately, then capital gains is applied to any difference in value when it's sold. I could be wrong, I have no special expertise here.
The government is there to enact the will of the manifesto it proclaimed prior to an election. Representative government does not mean that the wishes of the majority outweight the rights of the minority.

There is no requirement of government that it allows the nation to commit political and economical suicide.

All of the modelling, by all sides, show that Brexit will cause economic damage to the UK (and the EU).

The only answer the Brexiters have is that they have an unfounded belief that somehow, the UK, a relatively small market, with under-developed non-EU export industries, has some sort of comparative advantage in trade negotiations that will somehow lead to greater economic benefits in the long term.

All of the promises during the referendum (not legally binding on Parliament) by the Leave campaign have proven to be completely and utterly false.

So the "Brexit promise" of the Leavers is definitely something that nobody can deliver on. The act of leaving the EU is possible, the promises of the results of that are not.
Sure, but scale isn't everything. Operations are far more important, especially when you're a small team.

Modern distributed databases scale better but also have better replication, high-availability with automatic failover and no downtime, easier upgrades, easier backups, and generally less maintenance. Removing the single-point of failure with efficient distribution while being able to run easily on docker/kubernetes makes a big difference over a single monolithic database server.
This is true re alfalfa being a thirsty crop and is mostly exported. Demand from China has multiplied multiple times over. [1]

Interestingly the reason China needs alfalfa exports is because their aquifers can’t support the demand for forage for their dairy industry. It’s relatively new with the new middle class needing milk. It’s one billion plus that is hungry for stufff they never knew they needed before.

Meanwhile dairy in USA is crumbling(not least of the reasons is due to the subsidies). Dairy farmers in the US make less than what it costs. What a mess!

Meanwhile, Fonterra co-op in NZ started selling milk powder to China and is losing money. We are looking at a new economic landscape.

I don’t even know what to make of it to predict how it will end up. Regardless, it will certainly mean more consumption. And more loss of biosphere and water becoming a more precious commodity than even black gold of the 20th century. Interesting times indeed..

Nothing has changed. The state's debt problems are being mitigated at the moment by prevailing economic growth, particularly pension funds that have enjoyed rising equities. The state is still seeing a large net outflow of property owners and income earners. When the US economy eventually turns downward, if only as an inevitable iteration of the business cycle, the badly worn gears of IL finance will strip entirely clean.

The latest thinking about IL finance emerged[1] from the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago in April last year; add another 1% to the highest average property tax rates in the nation. It won't raise enough money to actually cover pension liabilities inside a forty year horizon, but one explicit benefit is that it will devalue properties so that "current homeowners would not be able to avoid the new tax by selling their homes." Even better, "people thinking of moving to Illinois" would benefit from lower prices, mitigating the unattractive tax rates, so goes the theory.

No thoughts were offered about the effects of thousands of dollars per year of new property taxes on fixed incomes, working poor or young home owners put under water by property devaluation. No analysis was performed to predict how rapidly the IL emmigration rate will accelerate with more taxes. No evidence was offered to support the concept that some pool of mysteriously tax indifferent IL admirers are standing by to move in once housing prices decline.

> ... Lots of people make money developing and supporting PostgreSQL.

Postgres is definitely an actively developed and very useful project, but I must admit I have no idea how the development is financed. It seems there is a non-profit collecting donations, for example EnterpriseDB seems to employ "key community members" [0]. And Amazon is listed among sponsors [1], though it is weird that they are so low on the list (from my limited experience most cloud use of Postgres is via RDS @ AWS).

So basically donations?

Looks transparent to me. pdes must be "pipe descriptors". ifs probably refers to the IFS concept in the shell; it may have come from getenv("IFS"). wordexp is described as influenced by IFS, and this function may have to look at that variable even though it's calling an external program to pass it different arguments (which is a bit weird at first glance: the program seems dedicated to the purpose; why can't it handle that aspect internally). flags is probably coming from the wordexp flags argument; it's being tested using the documented bitmask constants in the API.

Basically the coder here didn't just make up identifiers; they have connections to pervasive Unix concepts.
> In the U.S. today, less than 2% of new cars sold are manual now. Automatic gearboxes are well beyond the norm already.

At that percentage, the U.S. is a huge outlier however, and accounts for quite some chunk of of worldwide automatic gearbox equipped vehicle production on it's own.

The automatic gearbox remains the less popular option worldwide [1], though as you can see they are more popular than they were before.

Understanding and Attacking Apple File System on iOS
Paying someone (a fund manager) a percentage of your investment every year to "pick the winning stocks" with your money is more often than not a money-loser.

Looking at mutual funds over a period of years showed that very few of them even out-performed the market.

Almost all of those that did out-perform the market actually still lost out when the fund manager's percentage was figured in.

Fidelity Magellan Fund managed by Peter Lynch is one of the few exceptions where the fund not only outperformed the market but still did so after the fees.

(But then that is why you have heard of Fidelity Magellan Fund and Peter Lynch.)

Furthermore, as everyone jumped on Fidelity Magellan Fund it became too big and moved the market when it moved — and not in a beneficial way for the fund investors.

tl;dr: a monkey throwing a dart (assuming he charges a fee below 1%) will outperform most of the Wallstreet fund managers. Put your money in an index fund, let the algorithm spread your money/risk out and wait a few decades.
Without the satellite a typical node operator has a single ISP that has complete control over their view of the network. If they add a second ISP that will cost them an additional (say) $50 per month, and the second ISP is likely highly correlated with the first (common upstreams, similar response to extralegal pressure by local authorities, etc.). In what way is the satellite, which has a one time ~$100-ish setup cost (assuming you can't get most of the parts for free), not a strict improvement over not having it available?

Garzik has something of a conflict of interest encouraging fudding this effort. After I originally proposed back in 2011/2012 doing a broadcast like the eventual blockstream effort, Garzik ran with it and raised money from the public ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=334701.0 ) to do Bitcoin satellite broadcast. He creeped the scope to the point of proposing to launch a "cubesat" (why? Unclear, it would be a lot less useful due to their short life and the inability to use fixed antennas) and as a result ultimately failed to deliver anything at all.

Blockstream built something more practical and useful than a swarm of cubesats, and instead of just raising money and putting out hype then failing they put out a running system. In fact, Blockstream's system was up and running on the day the very first public announcement was made. I urged Garzik to do something like Blockstream's system as a MVP before sinking a fortune into trying to actually launch satellites...

And yes, absolutely anyone else can setup a similar system (though it isn't anywhere as simple as 'cut a check' unless you want to pay through the nose and don't want to support reception with $100 of deniable commodity hardware)... that isn't a minus, it's a plus and a direct counterpoint to your 'centralized chokepoint' claim if the fact that the next alternative to using the sat is the centralized chokepoint of your ISP wasn't enough.

This blockchain broadcast specific talk ignores the really cool "API" which they announced today: receiving a sat broadcast with commodity hardware is likely the most strongly anonymous communication method available... and this is something they've made available to everyone, paid for with Bitcoin micropayments.
I guess a lot depends on your outlook on how well organized society will hold up. It provides the platform by which specialization of experts and industrial production of your proffered items can be sustained. There's a lot of higher order effects that are not obvious when you consider just the immediate effects of scarcity, famines, wars etc. Remember that all the recent places in danger of local collapse have been propped back up by the rest of the world because the troubles have been local.

Hisory has many lessons of civilizations collapsing, you might read up on Jared Diamond's Collapse or Joseph Tainter's earlier work. A lot of these past civilizations had all the ingredients to make it, but ended up destroying themselves.
It was feasible, had the government started 2 years ago.

As for gaining control of laws, the primary complaint was the free movement of EU citizens, the UK wanted its cake (the right to move freely in the EU) and eat it (but control who came from the EU to the UK).

The equivalent stupidity would be for the Scottish devolved parliament to demand free movement of Scottish citizens in England while establishing immigration controls at the Scottish/English border.

The reasons don't really seem to address why Android has the issues it has -- device manufacturers don't upstream their code changes to the mainline Linux kernel, Linux doesn't have the same level of abstraction around hardware as eg Windows does, and the state of ARM SoCs isn't like the x86 platform where there's a lot of standards you can follow, everybody just ships bespoke code to boot their SoC and only their SoC. I don't see how shipping a "real" GNU/Linux userland addresses that.
I am unsure as to why the author used "DNSSEC" in the article title, as the first sentence of the article refers to "Domain name system (DNS) over transport layer security (TLS)", which is an explicit reference to DoT, and not DNSSEC.

There's the "100 minus your age rule", the "110 minus your age" rule... Linear, simple, all easy to remember — not necessarily "tuned".
Are you from an ex-soviet country? Capitalism is literally based on businesses snipping customers from each other. We call this competition. An ad for $50 for a product does not cancel out an ad for $60 for that product from a different store. To get your price and product to people, the businesses advertise by presenting information to the customer for which they compete.

The business that can reduce supply costs to meet demand at that point then sells the number of units where the supply and demand curves intersect. The one who can maximize the area under the curve gets the most profit and wins. This drives prices down - not up.

You are approaching this from an "all sellers are a part of an organization" viewpoint, and in that view the "seller organization" as a whole loses money by advertising. Very commie way of thinking, and alas, in the real world it's not only bad for the consumer - it doesn't work.

> The UK survived the rest of Europe trying to literally conquer it.

I don't think you understand the literal meaning of "literally".

The UK chose to join the EU. It has chosen to leave. That means it will have to comply with the rules the EU has for nations not part of the EU.

For some reason, the Brexiters seem to follow the "Fog in Channel, Continent cut off" idea that the UK has control over what the EU has to accept after it has left.

Two people in head position are easier to sway in favor of investors' benefit than one.

Technical people as not stupid and can delegate that "recruitment" thing you pushed to front before us. I also would like to see something akin to the research we are talking about in the defense of your "much more likely to have skills to run a high growth startup".

High growth startup is of interest for investors, mainly. And that's why they prefer several cofounders, because it is easier to divide and control what can be divided. Single founder cannot be divided (except for medical conditions), two can be.
I completely agree with this. The only truck I’ve seen that isn’t quite as absurd is the Honda one, but it’s also got a double cab.

I do not know what the fizz buzz test for a RE agent would look like, but I've met so many agents who would fail one.

This is Canada, so the rules are slightly different. However, I do not find it unreasonable to expect an agent to know that you can't get a CMHC backed mortgage for 1) homes with a fixed-term renter tenant in them 2) homes with age restrictions 3) homes on leased land.

Our agent repeatedly found us "perfect homes", just to learn after writing the offer that no bank is willing to fund the transaction.

I think the general public refuses to admit that good agents exist, and the RE industry refuses to admit that absolutely garbage agents also exist.

Nothing implicitly makes a government faster or slower than a corporation. Corporate charters are practically franchised private statehood where your voting public is your shareholders and they elect a board of directors to represent them. If your corporate charter can be "quick" then so can your constitution.

And governments are absolutely incentivized by opportunity. The prosperity of the people is their entire job. Its why you have a state to begin with. If its unable to fulfill that objective, get a new government.
