Does Wikipedia actually say that? That's pretty misleading. For any vector space V defined over a field F, V is only closed under scalar multiplication using the scalars of F. You can't choose scalars from arbitrary fields for any given vector space. The scalars have to be chosen from the underlying field of the particular vector space.
Even factoring in HN's pessimism towards cryptocurrency, it's the only thing available to a non-professional investor which meets your criteria (high risk, but possibility of 10x growth over 5 years). Maybe consider putting 1k in bitcoin, 1k in ethereum, 1k in a total-market equities index fund, and the remaining 2k in a volatile stock picks of your choice (e.g. Tesla).

FWIW I think this is a recklessly dangerous thing to do and I feel dirty giving this advice. But I feel someone should actually answer your question as asked.
You missed an operative word "business specific". Most conservatives / right wingers / free marketers disdain business specific tax incentives - the common criticisms is that it opens up government to cronyism and allows the government to pick and choose winners.

The former governor on Florida is on record as saying that he won't ever make a deal with a specific company but it's very important for him that Florida be so favorable to businesses-writ-large that they don't have to make deals for any specific country because Florida should be the best state for any company to do business.

Sounds like a bad situation. If I were you I would simply change the app ID, create a new Play account and publish it there. If there problem is with the connection to a banned account and not the app, then this removes that problem/connection.

I wish the author had explained how he went from identifying that the issue is stalled references to DRAM to the CYCLE_ACTIVITY.STALLS_L3_MISS performance event. Similarly from DRAM_Bound to MEM_LOAD_RETIRED.L3_MISS_PS. My complaint is that there's still a lot of magic here that requires carefully reading the Intel manuals that is elided in this post.

In the U.S. patent system, priority now goes to the first inventor to file. If Alice files before Bob, there's always the theoretical possibility that Alice derived her invention from Bob's invention and thereby wasn't really an inventor. In that situation, Bob might try to prove this, so as to be able to (re)claim priority and thereby be the one who is issued a patent instead of Alice. If Alice has a timestamped notebook, that can be powerful evidence of her independent development of the invention, which will help her fend off Bob's claim to priority.

(Much the same is true if Carol discloses confidential information to Dave under an NDA, and Dave realizes that his team had previously known the information and so the information shouldn't be subject to the NDA: If Dave's team has contemporaneous written records of their prior knowledge or independent development of the information, it can really help their case if Carol sues them for breach of the NDA.)

>Tip in cash, square cash or Venmo

These workers are vulnerable, at the margins of their economy and are already suffering at the hands of a nation-wide refusal to raise the minimum wage to something livable so they can exercise genuine financial independence.

Please do not take advantage of the situation to force your favorite poorly-regulated finance app de jour on them by only tipping with venmo or square cash. There are a bunch of good reasons not to do this, such as the fact that if you choose venmo it's now necessary for your delivery driver to own a relatively expensive smartphone with a monthly subscription in order to receive your tips, but mostly it's just kind of an arrogant and dickish thing to assume other people don't mind signing up for all the services you use to receive your $5 tip, so please consider just using cash. You'd probably be pissed if someone told you they only tipped in litecoin and you should go download breadwallet.
I imagine the comments will be either: its your fault, dont trust google and have a strategy that totally relies on a party out of your control, & in this day and age you have to do this and this happened to me with google/apple/paypal/microsoft etc.

While i think relying on google (or a single platform) is dangerous, these platforms really need to address these issues. While their isn’t much competition, they are really eroding developer trust. Developers may decide to build for an entirely different platform or work on a different idea that is outside mobile. This ultimately hurts app stores and this these platforms.

Short term a small amount of discontent doesnt matter, but it could reach a tipping point.
Can someone with more knowledge explain why this wouldn't be the easy solution?
As another comment mentioned, you can just host the script on your own site.
If Google is anything like Amazon, that will probably not be as easy as it sounds. Name, credit card, address, any of those will be used to link the newly created account with the old one and it will get banned again. If Google is feeling particularly clever, they will have fingerprinted the app somehow and changing the ID won't be enough. This is, after all, a company who makes their living on such techniques.
New platform, same issue. Adsense has tens of thousands of these horror stories. One click can end a business and destroy someone's life.

make sure the new service works before forcing everyone onto it, ideally be able to run both old and new in parallel while proving the new service works as intended; after cutting over to new service leave the old service up in read only mode until such time as everyone is comfortable turning it off. backups.

if one or more of the new services needs to be up in order to ship (planned / emergency patch) releases, think through if it is acceptable to not be able to ship releases for some time & plan accordingly.

I've seen migrations happen properly for version control and CI, with everything being completely moved off the old systems.

If your current pipeline has lots of integration (e.g. notifications from version control to issue trackers, build processes that update wikis, etc) all of that stuff will need to be discovered, deleted or ported.

larger enterprise orgs (500+ engineers, say) always seem to be migrating between these services. If you switch companies you'll find people migrating from A to B when your last team just did a B to A migration.

> “This ultimately hurts app stores”

Good, app stores need to die.
JS errors, page size, HTML errors, bad web design, CSS problems, SSL and broken layout has nothing to do with organic results or SEO and it is not proved that it affects your organic result position.

Even if it does, in-page problems doesn't affect your result not even by 1%. 99% is backlinks and their quality (or course).

Example: check techcrunch.com and debug/inspect their homepage. 15 JS errors, 6mb in size, no Description/Keywords, awful <title>, bad HTML elements. Can you even remotely beat them in the keyword "startup news"? No way. No matter how hard you will try to "SEO" your website.

I will tell it again. "SEO" was always a gimmick marketing thing. It's crazy that even now ppl don't understand that the only thing that matters are quality backlinks, as a result of quality content.
So, I didn't mean to offend anyone, only speaking from my experience.

I feel most jobs, at some companies in some situations, are absolutely justified. The problem is that then every company thinks they need to follow suit, and it ends up being a giant time sink. I'd wager most scrum masters are viewed by their team as a net negative (my opinion). But of course no person whose job acts as a hindrance will admit as much.

> Dont trust google and [don't] have a strategy that totally relies on a party out of your control

Last week, much of Google and Facebook were brought to a halt after Apple revoked their enterprise certificates. While the circumstances justified Apple's actions in this case, the fact remains that even Google and Facebook are largely reliant on another large company. If Apple completely banned all Facebook apps from the app store tomorrow... well, Facebook would probably survive, but it would be a serious blow.

I don't see how you can not be reliant on Apple/Google.
They’ll just ban them again.
FTA:

Article 11 in its current form will limit news aggregators’ abilities to show snippets of articles. According to Google‘s own experiments, the impact of it only showing URLs, very short fragments of headlines, and no preview images would be a “substantial traffic loss to news publishers.”

“Even a moderate version of the experiment (where we showed the publication title, URL, and video thumbnails) led to a 45 percent reduction in traffic to news publishers,” Walker explained. “Our experiment demonstrated that many users turned instead to non-news sites, social media platforms, and online video sites — another unintended consequence of legislation that aims to support high-quality journalism.”

This holds true if and only if the user is starting at Google, where its market share + ads + SEO gave rise to content mills. It’s 45% reduction in “start at Google, click an SEO’d result link.”

Once upon a time, people bookmarked sites with high-quality content, and would go directly there.

Google’s experiment assumes the user starts with Google, and doesn’t account for users going directly to a smaller number of higher quality sites, which can then do the NYTimes approach of first party ads and high quality audience to achieve higher revenue.

Sounds like the legislation could have precisely the desired effect.
I don't understand how anyone can be surprised. Companies like AT&T and Comcast budget to support 100m people by phone, while Google has $100,000,000,000+ in the bank. This kind of expense evasion is just a dirty accounting trick to spend less. It would barely even eat into their revenue to provide Comcast-level shitty support. Google's massive profits could even absorb the occasional tax, unfortunately it's much more profitable to just abstain from support, taxes etc.
I love this trick. It generates a float of the form 1.xxxxx..., filling in the x part with random bits, generating a random number between 1 and 2. Then it subtracts 1.
What's more important - analytics, or the user experience. Damaging stats sucks, but this seems to outweigh that.
PWA can't come fast enought to get rid of stores and walled gardens (and reduce cross platform development costs).
> Always beware the absolutes ;-)

All categorical statements are bad — including this one ....
I certainly see some people saying they want unmoderated forums, but they seem to be a pretty small minority.

It sounds like you have a pretty good idea of what kind of moderation you are looking for. Have you found a forum that is aligned with that?
This instantly reminds me of Full Metal Jacket and this quote:

Gunnery Sgt. Hartman: "If it wasn't for d-ckheads like you, there wouldn't be any thievery in this world, would there?"
What kind of an agreement did you sign with your developers?

IANAL. You might be able to invoke some legal means to limit your losses. The associated-account story wasn’t an act of God. You might argue the developers should have known better. I’d suggest buying an hour of a lawyer’s time to see what can be done.
Why are you linking to Javascript docs under an article about why the default C# APIs for random are bad? And even if there's already replacement libraries, a discussion of how they can be better than the default is useful?
> Is there a tax on cash or something.

Something. It is far from trivial to store significant amounts of cash. If it gets stolen, lost or destroyed, you basically have lost your money. Also, significant amounts of cash are not that liquid anymore. It takes time to get that from your vault and deposit that to a bank. Cash is just a pain in the ass in many ways.
Would love to sympathize but I can’t agree with their “neighbour” analogy. A more apt analogy is this: If someone has illegal dealings in the past, and you conduct business with them in the present, the authorities are well within their rights to investigate you. If you didn’t know beforehand, the investigation should convince you to cease further activities. If you did know and still proceeded, it’s your own damn fault.

Tl;dr: Cut ties with the app developer, create a fresh google play dev account and deploy your app.

I do agree that Google’s customer support is sorely lacking. If they’re collecting 30% of every purchase, they need to hire real people to deal with these issues. That’s a big chunk of change to collect and not provide any service against.

Edit: While it’s tempting to play the victim, business in the real world also works this way. Businesses can end up tainted by association with sketchy parties or other businesses that act poorly. A good chunk of business is word of mouth and trusting the other party. No one wants to do business with someone untrustworthy.
Won't they associate you again to the banned account through either your address, credit card, phone number, email or anything shared with the old account? It looks like they apply very extensive transivity, including (from a previous story I read on HN) using recovery email address to associate and ban accounts.
5 devs will nearly always outpace 10 if they have to work on the exact same piece of code. You gotta break it up into teams of at most 4, with as little overlap as possible. Communication doesn't scale.
At my current job we use Redux, though I wouldn't choose it myself (it had been adopted already when I joined). I think Redux is best suited to very large and complex applications, with very disciplined and skilled engineering teams, who talk to each other, refactor code, and have the time to think through things like the correct arrangement of application state, providing reusable selectors. Those teams, of course, would probably also do fine without Redux.

If you have a team that writes spaghetti code, or never has time to refactor, or doesn't have effective communication then things will be worse with Redux, because it makes the code much harder to follow (good luck stepping through things in a debugger to see how they work, for example).

This is mostly intended as a criticism of people/teams who think adopting Redux will solve problems with the messiness of their code. But I also think Redux is overly complicated and too abstract for 95% of projects. And don't get me started on Sagas...

I would recommend setState as far as you can push it, then choosing something conceptually simple like MobX (Or MobX State Tree), React Easy State, or whatever the one from Formidable Labs is. Using Redux correctly is not as simple as it seems on the surface, and it requires real thought and real understanding o t

Do NOT do this. Google will then ban all your accounts including Gmail, drive and ads as creating an account to circumvent their ban is really dangerous.

This ban is lifetime unfortunately and you or related accounts are not allowed on Google ever.

> to make any significant revenue you're going to have to work hard to provide a lot more value on top of the open-source option, and you probably don't want it to be "consulting."

Why not consulting?
In this case they are not being "investigated" but "convicted".
It sounds like the problem is with the outsourced developers responsible for the app. It's their account which has been banned - for multiple violations of the ToS. Now, perhaps this is just over-zealous enforcement on Google's part, but it's also possible that these developers have created shady apps before, or are adding shady code to apps developed for others.

The OP doesn't seem to know for certain what code is in their app. Is it possible that the outsourced developers they're using could have introduced dangerous code, and have a track record of doing so before? Nowhere in the post does it suggest that the author has contacted them to find out why their account is banned, which seems a little odd given how frustrated they have become with Google for banning them.
> But it only affect,as a first approximation, processes that try to execute code with different trust domains in the same address space

This is wrong, even as an approximation. This comment, as well as your other comments on this thread, indicate that you misunderstand spectre v1. Some of the initial proofs of concept of spectre v1 demonstrated the attack with both victim and attacker in the same process, but that is not necessary, and the original materials disclosing spectre make that clear.

The paper [1] describes spectre v1 as a technique in which "conditional branch misprediction can be exploited by an attacker to read arbitrary memory from another context, e.g., another process" [emphasis mine]. The others go on to describe a proof of concept in which a vulnerable code sequence is inserted in the kernel via ebpf, but the attacker is in user space: "we use the eBPF code only for the specu- latively executed code. We use native code in user space to acquire the covert channel information."

It's not clear whether spectre v1 style attacks within a single process can be prevented by hardware, but spectre v1 attacks in which an attacker process manipulates a vulnerable gadget in a victim process certainly can be.

Running untrusted code in the same process as trusted code has always been dodgy, and now will probably need speculation barriers at bounds checks. But the most worrying part of spectre v1 is how it can be used to bypass process (and user/kernel) isolation, and that can and should be fixed.

IMO, reddit banning t_d would create much more serious issues for them. The last thing they want is to get attention as a possible campaign financer. Even tho political choice is not a protected category and it's not illegal for reddit to ban t_d, since t_d clearly defines itself as rally sub for president, t_d mods follow rules and ban offending accounts quickly, and, most importantly, President Trump filed his campaign for 2020. with FEC almost immediately after becoming president.

Banning t_d could be construed as political speech, and a form of political donation. And reddit most definitely doesn't want legal inquiries of that kind, I bet they have a lot of dirty laundry there - did you guys forget how "cleanly" /r/politics switched overnight (literally) from bernie central to hillary propaganda?

They most definitely want to ban it, as demonstrated in leaked logs from private admin chat some time ago, but they do not dare.
This is typical Google behaviour unfortunately. With GCP there have been countless similar stories. Unless you have a dedicated account manager (meaning you spend millions) there is basically no human support.

This is why PWA is important: Google cannot ban a website!

Also, the author should make sure to publish their app on non-Google App Stores and remind users that they still have a choice.

And for those questioning on why the author is upset if they're still on the iOS store: Android is about 85% of the global market, and about 2/3rds of the US devices.

iOS is this weird dying phone OS that Apple is keeping alive even though there really aren't that many users.
