For what it's worth, here are the unique .eu domains linked to on HN during the last two weeks, along with an example HN page:

europa.eu (the most often posted .eu domain) - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18979027 . This is the "Official website of the European Union"

sifted.eu - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18958342 . This is "The new media platform backed by the Financial Times".

juliareda.eu - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18943510 . This is the site of a Member of the European Parliament from Germany, who is also a member of the Pirate Party Germany.

jsconf.eu - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18912059 . "JSConf EU is the labour-of-love conference for the JavaScript community in Europe"

elixirconf.eu - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18865236 . "ElixirConf EU is the premiere Elixir conference in Europe"

5gobservatory.eu - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18980769 . This is an organization directed by the European Commission.

This was all done manually. Someone else might automate the task.
Would you buy an autonomous car from a company that can't build a reliable keyboard, and is still struggling with its maps?
I find these comments fascinating. Scrum formalizes using rules? Compared to what? Read the PMBOK and then say that. I do Scrum specifically because it drops all the rules and leaves it to the right smart people to figure things out. I can't even imagine how Scrum with lots of rules would work. I've done Scrum since 2004 (got the SM cert too) and I truly don't understand what you mean by that.

The idea that any project manager can be all that is so dangerously optimistic. And yes, I realize there exists some PM somewhere who proves it is possible to be a good project manager. But the existence of an outlier does not move the bell curve, it's part of the bell curve. Most PMs need to be taught to rely on their devs and product owners so they stop screwing up projects themselves.

There is nothing so dangerous as a bad manager, especially a manager who thinks, "I've got this....". And there are so many bad managers. Scrum helps mitigate this by spreading the responsibility around to the people most likely to get it, not by tossing rules at a team.
I think the price is a mistake, but I don't think it's "failure" reflects a weakening Apple's of brand competitiveness as much as it is a sign of the relative maturity of smartphone hardware.

In other words, people are buying phones less often, because phones for 3-4 years ago are still quite capable of meeting the needs of most users, so people are naturally going to start buying phones less often.

I suspect Apple was very aware of this trend, and the price increase was an effort to increase margins to make up for an expected decrease in unit sales. After all, Samsung also indicated lower guidance on their Smartphone numbers for this year, so Apple is not the only company affected by this trend.

Maybe they missed the mark a bit, and a significant number of potential customers chose not to upgrade this year, but I seriously doubt those customers turned around and bought an Android instead. I suspect they will just get plan to get another year out of their 6S and wait for what comes out this year.
I don’t see the relation between Azure DevOps (an issue management and build system competing with Jira, Gitlab and others) and GCP/AWS?

Even if I run on some other cloud than Azure, I still need the software. I could even run Azure DevOps on Amazon’s cloud I guess (If I choose the self hosted option) but the UX complaints would apply there as well...
Fuzzing an API with DeepState (Part 2)
I'm not too sure about Ada. In five year's time the balance might be very much in favour of Rust, and Ada would look the wrong choice. That's how fast it's evolving.

ATS might be a very reasonable choice, actually.
The "surprise" in this case is play.it forwards you to radio.com which displays "This site isn't currently available in the EU"
It's quite worrying for security; imagine if some API used by some slightly older code uses an .eu, now someone can go but that domain, issue a trusted certificate and hijack the system using it.

Of course the risk is no greater than usual but the same could apply for fraudulent sites popping up.
I don't have much complains about DevOps UX, the only problems that sometimes impact me are the caching/random broken builds.

But Azure Portal UX is another story, the Blade UI is one of the worst things I've ever used, I hate scrolling horizontally, I can't open things in a new tab, it's really frustrating.
I got Mykita frames, but they're not exactly a cheap alternative.
If you enjoyed the article, I'd highly suggest "The Power Broker" by Robert Caro (the author). It's the best non-fiction book I've ever read and the only 1300 page book that I felt was too short.
Rural America doesn't have "enormous wealth". (To be fair, it doesn't have a "housing shortage" problem, either!)

The question is how to do this while working in your preferred sector. It's not just the tech industry that seems tied to the sort of agglomeration economies you only get in big urbanized areas; large parts of the service sector are like this, too.

You should read this article about Fortnite: https://char.gd/blog/2018/fortnite-is-the-new-hangout-spot

Apparently it's more of a "place" than a "game", so your kids are going to be left out if all of their friends are bonding and hanging out in the game.

My parents never bought me a video game console, and I'm actually very grateful for that. I would play computer games occasionally but I was much more interested in learning QBASIC and making my own games, music, and animations. I also spent a lot of time outdoors with my friends and cousins, building treehouses and riding bikes, etc.

Video game consoles weren't connected to the internet, and I was an only child, so I would have just been playing single-player games by myself. That would have been boring and a bit lonely, so maybe that's why I don't really like games. But it was always fun to go to a friend's house and play Super Smash Bros, GoldenEye 007, Crash Bandicoot, etc.

I think you should reconsider the blanket ban on video games, because Minecraft and Fortnite can be very social activities. Maybe have a time limit of an hour per day.
That seems like a negligible issue. It's really not unusual that both device and software need to be on the same or latest version to work as intended.

It would seem to me the issue is because of bad product design decisions.
Apple decided having user serviceable reliable keys was less important than making the thinnest laptop they possibly could.

It's left for the market to validate whether it was the correct decision or not.
I second this question. I'm using nvm almost everywhere and have never had issues, nor did I ever experience it as slow.
As a keyboard freak and vim user, I can relate.

As a Pharo contributor, well, there is indeed some clicking involved but not as much as you may think.

Keybindings are okayish at this point but can use some more love indeed. But this is not related to the core of Pharo but to the tooling that can be improved on some aspects (and this is moving forward actually).

If a user is not able to use a mouse, well, maybe the user can have a CI that integrates all of the code written in Tonel format and pushed to a git repo. Can work, Tonel format is pretty readable and usable from a command line.

There are ways to use Pharo as a "normal" language. But then, what's the point.
I think you've covered the real crux of it. Any DJ worth their salt can switch between faders and rotaries but faders do offer an additional visual feedback plus are a little easier for doing some turntablism effects (which is why I tend to favour faders when given an option between the two). However rotaries really come into their own on digital mixers / MIDI controllers.

I don't agree that this is a case where the ends justify the means.
Given than in Europe we have no debt but we don't do any of those things either, I'd say you're looking at something else.
By default Next.js scores 100/100 on performance and best practices eg https://nextjs-3q3i4heaj.now.sh/ (SEO / Accessibility are not 100 as I didn't add meta tags in this example, but are very trivial to add.)

In case of Invision it seems like images / render blocking css that was added outside of Next.js are the main culprit. I've reached out to Jon Wheeler who works on the marketing site to make him aware.

I actually searched for this exact question just yesterday. In the case of Spotify the "community outreach" part involves policing their otherwise unmonitored GitHub issue pages.
Kick-Ass CLI Tools in Swift
I don't intend many people to use this. I made it for my own productivity, disliking many aspects of React, Vue and Angular and their associated ecosystems / tooling.

This is more akin to `lit-html` and `AppRun` than other things. I would not use JSX, and don't personally consider the syntax noise from templates, nor the posited "performance toll" from ES6 templates (relative to JSX) an issue.

I'm putting it here as I intend to do a benchmark, a la https://medium.freecodecamp.org/a-real-world-comparison-of-f...

Also I'm building something called `DSS` (dynamic style sheets), which are similar to CSS-in-JS, with the idea being to have style as a function of state.

This is all just for my own enjoyment and productivity to use in my own projects, but I'm OK if other people find it useful (but I don't want it to become an OSS project with all the requirements of maintaining that) and welcome any criticism, feedback and ideas as well.
By definition the only people who need loans are the people who can't afford them.

They have to take a gamble on their own learning and earning skills and the future state of the economy - the latter being something they have no control over, and realistically, no understanding of.

The reality is the system will collapse anyway within the next ten years, probably with significant economic wreckage, and the next generations will wonder why anyone ever thought it was a good idea.

Is social selection an unfortunate byproduct, or a deliberate goal?
It was also politically popular in the U.S. to outlaw unlimited donations to political campaigns from corporations, and then that law was struck down by the Supreme Court.
Why did you build a machine with 128GB of RAM and then not use it? Was there a specific task you built it for? Why didn't you just rent some instances from AWS?
Probably for the same reason I don't use the .uk aliases I own.

They confuse people, .com, people can deal with, .co.uk people can deal with, but older and non-technical people can struggle with what is out of the norm (although not new).

These people, unlike us techies aren't visiting .io domains or .xyx domains.

When I've tried to use .uk sufficient people have understood it to mean .co.uk that is was a problem.

I don't think the nutritional info is available online, as they are just announcing the product and it's not for sale yet.

However, https://www.lightlifenews.com/ as of the time of writing (https://web.archive.org/web/20190124100505/https://www.light...) writes: "The Lightlife Burger has 20 grams of pea protein, 0 grams of cholesterol, and only 2.5 grams of saturated fat in a quarter-pound patty, compared to 80 grams of cholesterol and 9.3 grams of saturated fat in a quarter-pound patty made from traditional beef."

The 9.3 grams of saturated fat are a good match for your figure of 10 grams of fat, though note that they do qualify it as "saturated" and don't give figures for total fat or carbs. Bummer.
Makes me really appreciate my setup of:

- GitHub for source control

- AppVeyor for CI

- BlazeMeter for Load Testing

- Google Cloud for Cloud Hosting

- Slack for Team Chat

- MyGet for private NuGet feeds

- Trello for task management

- ELK cloud for log management

Yes it is many different services, but as a small team I like that we can pick the best tool for the job instead of trying to find a hammer for all nails which doesn't exist.

It also makes us less worried about changes, because we are not invested in any vendor so much that if they do something which makes our lives too difficult that we couldn't easily move on elsewhere.

Also it forces us to design our software in such a way that we don't lock ourselves into a specific vendor. For example we would have all our builds scripted instead of configured via some GUIs with the configuration stored on some vendor's cloud. The build script runs from anywhere. We can run our builds on Azure DevOps, TravisCI, CircleCi or anywhere. We just prefer to use AppVeyor because it's the smoothest CI server IMHO, but the transition elsewhere is just a matter of invoking a single build script.

I genuinely also prefer to work with a product which is doing one thing really good instead of having one product which does everything mediocre. From an operations POV it is just as simple as having everything in one place. We have one browser tab open for each service and it makes us actually a lot more productive. I am always only 1-2 clicks max away from what I need.

Teams/Companies who choose an all-in-one solution (e.g. everything in Azure + Azure DevOps) don't care about the productivity of their teams IMHO. They care more about the one person who has to do the accounting for their subscriptions or something like that :/
He's cowardly, but I think people mean tough in the sense that he does what he wants.

remote services are already offering less pay to employees in countries with a lower standard of living. instead of lifting talented people up it's just adding to the sense of stagnation.

>>This is precisely the sort of garbage Stveve was very much against yet Apple seem to now think ‘it’s ok’.

Steve Jobs is now gone. And your MBAs run the product management now. And those people have OKRs and targets to meet. And they seem to think if they make something that looks cute, utility be damned, as long as they meet sales and whatever targets, it must be ok. Then Apple also has enough loyal customers and brand they can milk. Eventually the public will tire out and move to something else. And so will they. There are enough companies to work at.

Having seen enough of this kind of sausage made. I can tell you no one cares. There are companies full of upper management whose sole purpose is optimizing for their careers. They survive because their kind, get hired by their own kind.

Eventually every one moves on.

Only real people who can make any change at all are the stock investors who hold big chunks of stocks. But even those guys care about 'percentage' of profits, and once they get it. They move on.

So no one cares really.
Amazing how many people don’t understand the difference!

Hey! fnm is a very simple and (very) fast node version manager.
On my machine, `nvm init`/`nvm use` takes around 600ms - this means each time you spawn a new shell you have a ~600ms penalty.

The gif on the README is real time (it's a screen recording) - so installations are fast, and every command that works locally is extremely fast.

So, tl;dr, fnm is built with performance in mind
The UK's conduct has been appalling. I am deeply ashamed about how my government has conducted itself, and represented the people of the UK. I think the EU's response has been restrained if anything.
I think student loans factor into the equation. Although, it certainly isn’t just student loans being the problem.

Cost of homes are making ownership unattainable, with the student loans making the lenders refuse to offer a mortgage. My parents era had an extra surplus of homes built and where cost of renting was low with middle class homes needing to be sold. It appears someone had the bright idea to limit construction for the requirements of the next generation and all the previous owners now hold market power or it simply just happened by an over increasing population. Rent has gone up everywhere and it doesn’t matter where you’re located.

The US government created unnecessary debt by the war in Iraq; where public funding changed hands to pay for the war. The banking crisis in 09 was bailed out by the government unnecessarily. The economy crashes as a result of many factors including this.

Universities constantly increasing tuition, the motto college is required becomes a reality and where the entry degrees are now similar to holding a high school diploma. Also why not throw in the debt inducing cost of healthcare if an emergency happens where a service of saving your life can ruin it.

The millennials are resentful of the previous generation throwing their futures away, letting it all happen and knowing social security benefits are drying up as well. The whole thing is a cluster fuck and where some people are okay making a divide by expressing its not necessarily bad. Basically there is a lot of arrogance towards self admiration if you’re doing alright or had parents take the bill. The previous generations didn’t approach their circumstances like that from my understanding. I think my generation is either narcissistic or deluded by excess Facebook, Netflix, who has an android vs an iPhone and other nonsense resulting in loss of the big picture being quality of life. A lot of social conditioning helped the con.
The iPhone itself may very well have seemed like vanity project at the time.

Cars are computers with wheels these days, and there will be to some extent a merger of initiatives.

Steve Jobs did several BD deals with feature-phone manufacturers like Motorola before the iPhone specifically to learn and internalize issues from that space.

When you're sitting on $100B in cash, your cost of capital is probably cheap, and existential risks abound.

It makes a lot of sense to be working on trends which are nearly 100% guaranteed to have a massive impact. Since we know self-driving cars are coming one way or another, it makes sense for them to be there.

In 20 years, 'MacOS' could be powering your car and other devices and we might have forgotten about this iPhone thing.
I wonder whether any other trading union in the world would act in such a tyrannical way should one of its members decide it's had enough. Hell hath no fury like the EU spurned. Reminds me of the Soviet union: 'our socialist utopia is so fantastic that we have to shoot anyone that tries to leave'.
Britain is leaving, The EU is now acting in its best interests.

I'm not sure you can read any more into it than that. Yes this does seem unreasonable, I can't think of any other examples where they're being unreasonable though?
> neighborhoods are very boring

What changed to make them boring? Couldn't it rather be that neighborhoods are now considered boring due to highly interactive electronic entertainment being available, as an alternative, pretty much everywhere, at any time?

Mind you: I'm not saying these things are equal, but by now electronic entertainment has been designed to be as appealing as possible, in contrast to that, the alternative of going outside to look for stimuli, has become quite unappealing and bothersome to many.

Why go out in the world, to get sensual and intellectual stimulation, when you can just click away on the Internet or in Fortnite to get your "fix"? Particularly with the news cycles constantly bombarding everybody with FUD these days, making parents less likely to give their children unsupervised "outside time" even if the kids actually want to go outside.
closed source is the default. and where is the racism? you don't even get ethics lectures if you're educated as an engineer in a third world country. anecdotally i was educated from a pretty good private college and even there the ethics professor herself said you don't really get to make any ethics decisions as an engineer in india. your only choice is quitting and that is a really tough choice

This would be an unhinged move; essentially deleting domains for political reasons. Any business doing due-diligence would be forced to move from their .eu domain.
Having returned my 2018 "improved butterfly keyboard" MBA because the keyboard died after 3 weeks, I suspect that the issue isn't being taken seriously. A minor design revision that didn't pick up or resolve a recurring issue is a death march for a product.
Tycho, I've heard the same from lots of others. Dive is classic, Sunrise Projector is my favourite.
I'm pretty sure `nvm` supports more use cases than fnm right now, as it is a much more mature project. However, it is slower in orders of magnitude.

It does support `.nvmrc` files so my use cases have been fulfilled with fnm - but if yours wasn't implemented yet - you are more than welcome to open an issue and we'll try to tackle it.

Also, fnm is a single executable, therefore it is very easy to install and works across all shells (no need for wrappers in `fish` shells, for instance). Just put it in your path and you're good to go!

I see it more as "UK is leaving the EU, so they're losing all their benefits, unless specifically negotiated for".
