How familiar are you with internet laws in Malaysia? Because that is probably about how relevant EU laws are for a publisher for a small city in Wisconsin, normally. Until they make the front page of hacker news, that is. Whoever maintains their site is probably very confused at the moment, unless they are a HN reader themselves.
I don't have an Android phone and I don't miss one. In rare cases I might want to do the opposite what the author does: Run an Android app on my computer (Linux). Sounds weird that that is still not standard. I know there has been more than one attempt to implement it. But AFAIK none of them really successful. Would be glad to get corrected.
Seems pretty good. Android runs on the Linux kernel, but is missing the GNU/Linux userland. This app gives you that.

How, exactly, has regulation driven the price of a drug we've had for decades up hundreds, even thousands, of percent, most of which increase happened after it was out of patent protection?
Things i learn't the hard way on transition from a Founder to Product Manager being a non technical guy:

Firstly understand the transition means a lot of unlearning, sometimes with parts that you hold dear to you. My advice to you is to be honest with yourself, your team and stakeholders about the same. Makes it easier on all of the folks and eases the transition.

3 Circles of X: As you start going up the ladder, your focus is on a birds eye view of three circles:
Your Customers/Markets, Your Products and Your Team. You are here since you get the bigger picture and you need to help your team do all of their core functions with as little hassle as possible. I came to terms with myself when i started thinking of myself as a lubricant, and it all made sense.

Tons of people go through this, find people that have recently gone through the transition and talk your problems out. Also probably give Managing Humans by Michael Lopp a read.

Hope this helps!
Hah - finally!!!

Now if they also got their shit together and told them to stop advertising coal-powered Tesla cars as cleaner, there would be a lot less to lie about in Tesla ads.
Layman Explanations – Attention, CNN, LSTM for Text Classification
The evidence that points to Iran comes from a company named, Resecurity. But there are some odd stuff about this company.

1 - their CEO has no real linkedIn history [1]

2 - they revenue and employment went off the chart just in 2 quarters [2]

3 - very unclear how they came to this assessment. Especially now that US government is looking for excuses (real or fabricated) to make a case for war with Iran, I look at these evidence with some skepticism.

Am I being over-cynical here?

> That's an utterly disingenuous argument.

> The EU made an attempt at formally codifying a very basic boundary that most everybody intuitively understands - everybody except for the advertising-surveillance industry which remains willfully ignorant

What is disingenuous is that you have tried reduced this argument down to "Everyone agrees with GDPR except for advertisers". Please recognize that plenty of HN users do not agree with GDPR.
Whenever I use a technique I've learned about in a book, I try to make it a point that I'm doing that, and I frequently mention the book the technique comes from. Just because it's in a book doesn't disqualify it as an effective method. At the same time, being transparent about your methods is important, since the methods themselves should be subject to scrutiny and understanding.

Could Fannie’s officers really have been accurately
disclosing the risks the firm was taking shortly before
its sudden collapse? It is here where the case got complicated.

While he was chief executive, Mr. Mudd said that subprime
mortgages accounted for about 2 percent or less of the
mortgages Fannie Mae was insuring. The commission’s case
largely rested on the fact that this percentage did not
include the insurer’s longstanding programs for low-credit
score borrowers, Expanded Approval and MyCommunityMortgage.

The theory about the Alt-A loan disclosures was also not
that Fannie had not disclosed that it was in the business.
It classified a number of its loans as Alt-A, and told
investors as much. But it did not disclose that it had
instructed lenders not to classify certain other loans as
Alt-A, even though they were also supported by low
documentation.

...

The 2008 crisis definitely involved some sort of fudging or failure to disclose. But it also involved failure to see systemic risks building.
I am no expert, but I highly doubt it is really that simple, especially if the webmasters are particularly risk-averse. And why wouldn’t they be, if Europe is a relatively small portion of their user base? Why pay for an hour of a lawyer’s time, or even an hour of an employee’s time, to attempt to read and evaluate the laws?
You can store zfs send output as a file. You don't need a ZFS filesystem to receive into if all you're doing is backups.
GDPR only matters if your business is based in Europe, or targets European consumers in some substantial way. If you run a Madison, WI local newspaper, you don't need to choose between blocking EU users and following GDPR. You just ignore it and nothing will happen.
For a while I've thought "patch holes as we discover them" is the wrong approach to computer security.

Perhaps we should be using formal proof systems? Perhaps we should just admit that computers are bad at holding secrets, and instead make everything on a computer public.
This comment, the parent, and many others on this thread sound eerily alike and similar to those propagated by trolls and bots during the failed WalkAway campaign.
I've been reading recently books on the former Soviet Union. "Beria, my Father" by Sergo Beria, "Krushcev" by William Taubman, "Conversations with Molotov" by Feliks Ciuev...

Then tried "Stalin's Daughter: The Extraordinary and Tumultuous Life of Svetlana Alliluyeva" by Rosemary Sullivan but could't finish it. Compared with the 'bad guys' her biography is just dull.
Premiums are also untaxed if you’re self employed.
> they are mostly low quality comments on both sides of the issue.

Please have a look at the other reply I made in this thread, when someone mentioned that Li Keqiang Index and argued that it is a better indicator of China's real GDP growth, I listed recent figures to show that if Li Keqiang Index is actually more reliable, there would be higher real GDP growth. My cited numbers are from Caixin, which is considered as a pretty reliable private source.

What happened to my reply? My "low quality" comment is downvoted within seconds. I don't think China bashing comments are being treated the same way.

Rather than just blindly marking other people's replies as of "low quality", maybe you can share some more details on why my downvoted reply above is of low quality and how can I improve from that.

Oh, btw, with high confidence that this reply is going to be downvoted fast.
It’s totally possible that the site complies with all GDPR requirements but that it still makes business sense for it to block EU users. Verifying that they’re compliant would probably rack up sizeable legal fees, which could be far higher than the revenue they could expect to receive from readers in the EU.
I had an outpatient procedure a few years ago and called to question the bill. It seemed like balance billing at the time and I straight-out said it to the office admin. Apparently that's all it takes, the thought of litigation and bad publicity? I haven't received another bill.
“Threat actor” is super vague but more specific than the words you proposed.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threat_actor

I agree the jargon isn’t great, I’ve seen “attacker” and “malicious user” used in pentest reports and neither of those seems quite right either.
I'm quite sure it's true, but I can't seem to find the original citation.

There were congressional hearings in 2005 because the GSEs couldn't produce financials.

he is telling you:

Operational level
- to keep the technical jargon out, dont give technical details but give business strategy related details. if you need then go in tactical ways you can solve the problem.
- your information should be bulleted list of 4-5 words per line in business terms.
- you should talk in terms of program level, org level strategy, program level budget/matrix work, dependencies etc.
- your metrics conversation should be in terms of business terms such as basis point impact to the program.
- you should not talk architecture or logic level design but in terms of connecting orgs, blockers due to various programs.
- view and think in terms of non-biased decisions to be made objectively.
- talk in terms of process not code
- i do not want my team members to have crap excuse about defects occur b/c this and that issues but i want to know metric based impact and recommendations and alternatives.
- present 2-3 options (unbiased) to help make right decisions.

People Level talk in terms of
- strengths and opportunities.
- building bench strength.
- talk in terms of pipeline
- team building activities, team collaboration, compensation packages, org chart and skill needed.

lastly, do not go to your boss with your daily problems, he is your last resort.
Oh yes, those. I read those once when a "prepper" pointed me at them. It's how to build a machine shop from junk, if you're a master machinist. He assumes there's lots of aluminum around.
If by "caused problems" you mean "killed millions by starvation", then yes.

They had a habit of killing local technocrats who didn't report strong numbers, though, so I can understand why someone would say their starving town had a grain surplus. And of course the guy doing the killing is under a similar threat, all the way to the top.
Shares of Citrix is down after report of hack:

Given an absence of even other vague data like 'exfiltrated data IP addresses were registered as Iranian' (not conclusive proof in itself given that the end devices could have been compromised) I'd say there is reason to be skeptical until they can provide more evidence.
But at 6 feet tall, I couldn't imagine sitting in either car regularly. So maybe I'm not a Porsche kind of guy.

Unlike some other brands, the Porsche Macan can be configured exactly the way you want it. Options are a la carte. There are some option bundles, but you aren't forced into them. A Macan without a sunroof has lots of headroom, both front and back. I'm 5'11" and my head doesn't come close to the roof.

But if you're 6'6" then you're probably very limited to the cars you can sit in. Basketball players tend to drive large SUVs, such as the Cadillac Escalade.

The only way to know what the Taycan will be like will be to sit in one. Plus you certainly don't want one of the first few model years. The pioneers always wind up with arrows in their backs.

I do wonder about the Audi charging network availability.

Tesla was forced into doing a supercharger network, because there was nothing like that out there. But it would be insane if every manufacturer felt the need to build out their own network. That seems crazy inefficient.
Because increasingly state actors are involved and it's not simple crime.
>Saying Go has it's head up it's ass is extremely disrespectful to the people that created it and are maintaining it. You lost all credibility when you chose the low road and said that.

No, because Go really has its head up it's ass.
No your interpretation of the rules is just nonsense.
To me this seems like the reasonable answer. I guess I don't understand why this Madison website would even care about EU users or GDPR and why it would bother blocking visits it thinks are from the EU?

Because they don't want to get bogged down in EU law? I've had clients with real cross/inter/multi-jurisdictional issues. This would not be one of them.
Wow! When I saw "image map" on the title I thought this can't actually be talking about the HTML image map. Image map reminds me of HTML from the late 90s, and give me a good nostalgia of making personal homepages from that time. With invisible clickable divs, absolute positioning css and what not, it seems like image map has become a thing of the past. I'm guessing the requirement of making it work with no JS took you to the path of using image maps. Neat technique.
It is due to you who downvoted the parent post that I stopped contribution to NH after earning 5000 karma since 2011. The readers now don't argue, they just downvote if they don't like. Very different from YCombinator's early days.
Indeed, I subscribe to that newspaper, and they are not exactly swimming in money. If it's anything like electronic products, getting certified for export to the EU is an expensive proposition, and certainly not a DIY project.
Beware of confusing dynamic typing with weak typing :)

If you are using eg Clojure's spec, you can reference the same stuff downstream in the control flow too, for eg fn argument validation.
Oddly, I think they would still be a very good friend.

Most of these rules were ultimately grounded in trying to be fair. Fairness, though, is something you bring to the world. It is not the result of natural laws, but of human effort.

Obviously, that is just an assertion of mine.
NHS coverage is a mixed bag. Other countries that offer full coverage of at least one cycle would be Sweden, France, and Belgium. A good like, half of Europe has some kind of at least partial public coverage of IVF.

Compare to the US where only a dozen(ish) states have requirements that group insurers offer infertility coverage, and those dozen are all over the place. California doesn't require IVF coverage while Illinois does. If you buy a Marketplace plan, I guess... sucks to be you, zero coverage.

Anyway, I will say that literally all of my reproductive health issues that were causing issues elsewhere in life were uncovered in the process of being diagnosed with infertility after literally 15 years of a dozen doctors that had no fucking clue, and that it's a big shame that not even that is covered for a lot of people in large parts of the US - which is a far cry from covering a $20k+ IVF cycle.
>It’s possible to assume goodwill and sincerity in the limited case of a site like this

Even that's changing steadily, albeit slightly more slowly/subtly. The slower pace is likely due to the superior moderation here, combined with the astuteness of the HN crowd. But, that latter point also makes HN a prized target for propagandists and trolls.

And, if you look closely, you'll see them, including here on this thread.

But, the rest of your comment is spot-on: the sociopathic troll feasts on good-will and contemptible views should be met with contempt. In fact, however, this is their strategy: purposely earn contempt then claim to be the victim when that contempt is paid. For instance, they trigger vulnerable people, then attack them further when they try to defend themsleves. The trolls justify these attacks by claiming they are the actual victims.
I've never considered doing this, can you do it differentially?
That's silly. We're not talking about "tangentially similar" viewpoints (as you said before you edited your comment). Denial of free expression (and thought and conscience) as a fundamental human right is arguably the pillar upon which oppressive statist ideologies stand, as well as the mechanism by which they operate.

@claudiawerner argues, albeit obliquely, that speech that makes certain particular groups feel unsafe should not be protected. She might have somewhat different ideas about what constitutes safety compared to Tony Perkins or Yelena Mizulina. But they'll all argue, convincingly and articulately, that the notion of a fundamental human right to freedom of expression is an error. In general, history has shown that the consequences of such people gaining power over societies is tragic beyond words.

So, yeah, I agree that that comparing them based on their choice of clothing or diet would be a bit of a red herring. Good point, I guess.
Totally agree -- I too had to learn this the hard way. Also, I wrote this during the difficult period when I myself was transitioning from tech to lead a few years ago. Hope it helps: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/failure-delegate-pitfall-tran...
Was your comment flag killed? If it was, it isn't currently.

And since I know it wasn't when I made my comment, I wasn't talking about your comment. Downvoting is different from flagging.

Enable viewing dead comments, scroll to the bottom, and tell me they aren't low quality.

Also 2/3 of the dead comments I see right now are anti-China comments.
It's especially notable that China has been caught inflating their GDP numbers because their Paris Agreement carbon output was tied directly to carbon per unit GDP, see https://www.nrdc.org/sites/default/files/paris-climate-confe...

Ouch. The winner of "The worst position to be in today".
The results on this paper are 4x worse than the state of the art of a couple of years ago. Personally I think the paper oversells their results. Creating a much worse model by making it much simpler doesn't seem that interesting, to me...

It's not analogous because in internet protocols the server has to actively send the "property" in response to a specific request to access it. If a request is made and a response freely given with no further authentication required then it is a stretch to compare this to coming onto someone's property without invitation. Perhaps if one is accessing unauthenticated services on a private network this analogy would sort of work, but the assumption is that if you run a service that responds to random requests on the public internet you intended the responses to be public. It is more like an owner hiring someone to stand on their property and invite people in then complaining that they gave their employee poor directions and faulting the public for trespass.
B2 can do this too if S3 is a bit too spendy.
A TV, dishwasher, or laundry machine is a better corollary. Everyone uses theirs at a different rate but they still put a reasonable guess at yearly cost on the Energy Star label.
China’s territorial claims in the South China Sea are ridiculously broad. The nine dash line in particular is insane, extending into the EEZ of six other countries. China claims that entire area, not as its EEZ but as territorial waters.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Territorial_disputes_in_the_So...

> The disputes involve both maritime boundaries and islands.[8] There are several disputes, each of which involves a different collection of countries:

> The nine-dash line area claimed by the Republic of China, later the People's Republic of China (PRC), which covers most of the South China Sea and overlaps the exclusive economic zone claims of Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Taiwan, and Vietnam.
Maritime boundary along the Vietnamese coast between the PRC, Taiwan, and Vietnam.
Maritime boundary north of Borneo between the PRC, Malaysia, Brunei, Philippines, and Taiwan.
Islands, reefs, banks and shoals in the South China Sea, including the Paracel Islands, the Pratas Islands, Macclesfield Bank, Scarborough Shoal and the Spratly Islands between the PRC, Taiwan, and Vietnam, and parts of the area also contested by Malaysia and the Philippines.
Maritime boundary in the waters north of the Natuna Islands between the PRC, Indonesia and Taiwan[9]
Maritime boundary off the coast of Palawan and Luzon between the PRC, the Philippines, and Taiwan.
Maritime boundary, land territory, and the islands of Sabah, including Ambalat, between Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines.
Maritime boundary and islands in the Luzon Strait between the PRC, the Philippines, and Taiwan.
Yes, plenty of HN users work for the surveillance industry.

You reduced the argument to being about support of the GDPR itself. I'm not in love with the specifics of the GDPR, just like I'm not in love with the concept of "sex offenders" needing to remain a certain distance away from schools. But they both exist in service of very straightforward boundaries.
Expense. NASA won’t pay for it and SpaceX is focused on Starship.
They could do the calculation based on the amount and type of driving done by the median driver. Then this would be a good approximation for most people and the outlier who knows they drive twice that many miles could double the number etc.
Yeah the caching issue is a great reason not to use a GET, i was more just suggesting if you're being lazy and pasting a request into a browser v's using a command line (which obviously you should) then it's easy to get going quickly to kick the tires.
A driver in the U.S. is banking by owning his own truck and trailer. There is little reason someone working even a half a year can't afford the best insurance on the marketplace.
The Wettbewerbszentrale is a bit more than a self-regulating body (and why self-regulating? The "regulated" business aren't members). It has special legal status in that it can start such lawsuits, which normal associations can't.
They are awesome books, but, really, any of the Chinese junk from Harbor Freight is so much better that it's ridiculous.

No, that’s not it. The Shuttle had them and the engineering is easy. NASA was wary of the safety of propulsive landings and the time/cost to approve them would have been too much.

Speaking as someone with infertility working on kid #2 via IVF right now, nothing positive comes out of wanting kids but not being able to have them. (Also with the big disclaimer that adopting children costs just as much if not more, in some way or another...)

There's parent nights out and dates with my partner to rant about toddlers being shits that are nice to have, but my fertility clinic has an MFT on staff and my old fertility clinic had referrals out for therapy and support groups facilitated by therapists. After almost 18 months the first time, too, I worked out a lot of depression and anger through 1:1 therapy weekly for months. I'm heavily relying on those old coping mechanisms, this time around.

The economics of sports are dominated by one factor, the size of the audience. If women started to watch female sports in anywhere near the numbers men watch male sports then the economics would change.

As it stands, women are just not as interested in watching sports as men are, with some exceptions like figure skating and gymnastics.
