I kind of doubt that’s specifically a feature of post Tiananmen urban design. Baron Haussmann’s redesign of Paris during the second empire did the same thing, making central Paris a city of wide boulevards that are impossible to blockade. There’s debate over the extent to which this was a deliberate attempt to make suppression of urban revolt easier but there were six such revolts between 1830 and 1848 and only one afterward, the Paris Commune, which was comprehensively crushed.

Urban planners just like big wide straight roads and with automobiles they can really indulge themselves. They look neat and tidy on a plan and impressive in real life. Building for officials and planners, not for living. That said the party-state is very much alive to the possibility of revolt and I’m sure some people thought about the military implications of urban planning but I’d say the primary motivation was ease of planning and building more than crowd control concerns. A competent military force would be quite capable of crushing an urban revolt even if both sides were armed with nothing but rifles. Professionals beat amateurs at everything and when the professionals have not just drill, discipline and training on their side but overwhelming fire power, air support and better communications the difference in capabilities becomes comical.
Paris was rebuilt after 1848 for this exact reason, so it wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest that Beijing did the same.

The facts remain that (1) even Free-Software developers rarely tinker with their Macs, (2) what can be achieved by tinkering is extremely limited, and (3) vanishingly few who don't own a Mac have the slightest idea of, or interest in, what MacOS apps they might (someday) be able to run.

What would the results of a successful or unsuccessful test mean? Either might be a consequence of the different environment.

I have no difficulty locating files. They stay right where I put them. If storage did not keep growing it might bother me that they never fade away.

All that said, a few Mac owners, and even some former owners, might have a use for emulation, and I would never begrudge it to them.

That's all true, but also keep in mind that they will often charge as much as people are willing to pay so there can be room for a lower cost competitor to play. Even removing one (costly) feature and charging less could be a good option if it captures customers who didn't need that feature or wouldn't pay more than your lowest cost option to begin with.

They don't if there's no recycling going on in your area. As the article writes if it goes to landfill, it gets packed tightly together. Without oxygen it doesn't matter what is it made of.
What I'm meaning to say is that despite your desire to move the goalpost of the argument in order not to seem wrong, the term 'techbro' pretty exclusively brings to mind a negative male stereotype for most people.

Your post would have been better phrased using the term "software engineer's", which would have gotten the same point across whilst being gender neutral, neither reinforcing said negative male stereotype nor erasing female engineers in the culpability of said belief that "technology can solve everything."
No, except in certain cases.

When the market is large you can almost always carve out a stake. You already know the demand is there, you can get a share of it by reaching people who haven't heard of or don't like your competitor, or by doing something a little different and better. The risk and reward are both lower in these businesses vs a Valley style moonshot that VCs tend to like.

However if the market is just a few companies or the service depends heavily on network effects I wouldn't do it. E.g. the investment required to offer as many apps as Google Play or as many social updates as Facebook is huge, you can't really bootstrap your way into this, and people are only going to engage with so many app stores or social networks.

Generally in Australia, environmental initiatives are welcomed. We have sorted waste bins, banned plastic bags, banned single use straws, and recently coffee cups have been a source of attention. I don't have any figures, but every person I work with has a reusable coffee cup. Keep Cups [1] are a very popular option. Unfortunately a portion of the population resist any sort of change, which is rather natural I guess. Change is hard and the youth in this country are typically setting a good example.

A documentary called The War On Waste [2] had a very convincing show on Coffee Cups. This has had a decent impact on the population from my perspective.

The mindset change is probably worth while if this thread is anything to go by. I was rather surprised that there are so many negative comments in this thread. There has been an obvious and substantial shift towards being mindful of your impact on the environment in Australia which is very welcoming.

This scene from Mad Men (57sec) [3] shows how previous habits are no longer acceptable behaviour.

There's two ways to directly upload to S3 buckets (or GCS):

1) You allow append-only access for the world, maybe in combination with an expiry policy. Indeed only useful for a few use cases I'd say

2) You deploy signing of requests, and you only sign for those who are logged in, or otherwise match criteria important to your app. A bit more hassle, and still requires server-side code (whether traditionally hosted or 'serverless'), but at least your servers aren't receiving the actual uploads, taking away a potential SPOF and bottle-neck.

That said, I'm not sure how serious you are about handling file uploads, but uploading directly to buckets often means uploading to a single region (on aws, a bucket may be hosted in us-east-1 for instance, meaning high latency for folks in e.g. Australia). This may or may not be problematic for your use case, but it did bring us complaints when we had that.
You're right, not a good source. Google does a poor job of bringing up unbiased soruces. A better term to search for is expanded polystyrene foam. Here are some sources:

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

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-017-12299-2

The EU has decided to ban throwaway polystyrene foam but I don't know if this counts for much as I don't know how much science was taken into account. There will be a comprehensive risk assessment by the EPA: https://www.epa.gov/assessing-and-managing-chemicals-under-t....

My worry is when packaging EPS breaks down into tiny particles that could be inhaled. This cannot be great.
I disagree entirely with that. I think Apple sold people the idea that what they provide is really cool and 'just works' and that you want to be in their 'ecosystem.' It worked, people bought the allure and then just stopped looking at other solutions because Apple said they don't need to.

I think your post highlights exactly that: a buy-in to the brand so strong as to not even try and look elsewhere when issues arise, just adapt and accept.
> This is the kind of thing that can break by accident and ruin everyone's month.

Not in practice. Compilers make use of undefined behaviour to optimize things that are widely applicable and profitable. No real compiler does what you're saying and no future compiler is likely to without explicitly being asked to.

I agree that, by the letter of the spec, you're right, but you're still most certainly overstating the relevance.

I'm not arguing that this isn't a real problem or that people shouldn't use memzero_explicit() (or similar) where security is on the line, as I already said several times in another sub-thread -- I'm just saying that this kind of thing is extreme language-lawyering beyond the realms of probability. It's still not an excuse to be lax, but let's be realistic about the actual likelihood of it happening.

I've lived on the US/Canadian border for 7 years and know the United States quite well, probably I have more friends there than I do here in Europe.

As for your life, you've spent years on HN educating everybody here on it in minute detail so if you want to make the case that I don't know anything about it then I suggest you read back your own comments and associated blog posts. I know more about your life than I know about my sister's.

> He assumes I have huge medical bills because I'm American.

My comment had nothing to do with your medical bills or lack thereof, and - given your comments to date - I would rather assume that they are low.

So to me it looks like the assumptions are all on your end.

On another note it is rather rude to answer to a comment thread and then to berate an earnest reply in this way.
My office had a lot of ceramic cups that were taken by employees from the cabinet, used and left wherever in the kitchenette.

There was one dedicated employee whose main job was to gather the cups and put them in the dishwasher and after they are cleaned, put them back in the cabinet. Dishwasher ran constantly and that employee kept kitchenette neat in between of cup handling. I think there were even two dishwashers so one can be loaded while the other is working.

The system was pretty much perfect. If people forgot to bring their cups back to kitchenette they were gathered by the cleaners at the end of the day from employees desks.
A mono-culture is not good, but most alternatives aren't competition to steam but monopolies on their own content, their own little fiefdoms.

This is the same problem with video streaming, we don't have competition on who can create the best UI, the highest bitrate, the best recommendation algorithm, just multiple monopolies.
We got two dishwashers in each office kitchen so one can get filled while the other's in operation.
Not entirely sure if I read your question right, but Uppy does have a scriptable API so that you could do uploads without bringing in all the UI yes. So you could write your own UI, or have some kind of automation in place.

They only do that as a short term move to grab market share and put weak competitors out of business. Generally that's just a phase in the early days and eventually prices start creeping up, often higher than they were before.
I said the metric of "money held in the bank" would count many home owners as poor, even if they own a house that is worth 1 million dollars. Not that they are actually poor - that is the point. The metric may not be very useful.
For <10 people there's easy personal accountability and no issues should arise. For 20-50 people I've observed good effects from just having one employee who has the responsibility (and time in their daily schedule) to fill, run and empty the dishwashers. That person can either go around the building collecting everything or police everyone else to put their cups where they belong (in practise almost always a mix of the two).

I don't know how bigger companies handle the issue, but the plan for scaling up seems obvious: have one person responsible for the dishwashers of each floor (or whatever division seems reasonable).
Nike is doing better than ever, and it's silly to even suggest that wearing the best-selling brand of athletic shoes would be an issue anywhere in the US.

Specifically this part : "Non-black Americans are not commonly accepted into this community"

Also the fact people keep writing "the n word", "the word but with an a" feels like communicating with children. Just write nigger or nigga and be done. The sky won't fall. You can't analyze or criticize something you can't name. Especially when forbidden words change every 10 to 15 years because people will just start using other common ones as insults. A simple example would be how "despite", "kings" and "queens" were used to mock black people (not just north-american one) on r/cringeanarchy (which ban must be why this was reposted).
Haha, correct! Yeah that’s probably the best place to start :) There are loads of cool WebAudio apps out there for inspiration, e.g. check out https://blokdust.com/.

I’d check out that tutorial I posted, once you feel comfortable with the basics of JS you may also want to take a look at https://tonejs.github.io/, which provides a layer on top of WebAudio with useful functionality like synths, sequencers etc. Can save a lot of time!

There are many other great tutorials and open source WebAudio projects out there too. Have fun, hopefully you can post something you have made on here in the not too distant future! Like I say, feel free to give me a shout on email/twitter if you need more advice.
Brain connections are like cowpaths the more they are traveled the deeper they become entrenched.

Having them practicing other thoughts will let their brain gradually collect the garbage (unused synapses go weaker and are ultimately pruned over time).

Some people may end up ruminating those thoughts anyway, but I'd expect them to be a minority (the propensity for long-term rumination is linked to mental issues that are somewhat prevalent, but not that much).

Removing the social validation will help most people withdraw from the problematic thoughts.
RTFP?
Thanks mate, been weighing up the options. Was not prepared for how bad it can be with thick rebar concrete walls. Only a few meters away from router and yet terrible signal. Far outside through a glass door has perfect signal.
Ethernet over power and a mesh of AP's seems to be the best way.
I consulted with a ~small law firm that had staff for that. They setup food and beverages for meetings and depositions, kept the kitchen spaces orderly, and so on.
but SSH/SFTP are a heavier burden for dev & ops than an HTTP API. WebDAV is a more suitable request in this case
Yeah, but the deposit is higher than the retail price.
Yeah seems reasonable, nothing wrong with going through a recruiter, it can just be harder to find the interesting work as recruiters. But a good recruiter is definitely a useful thing to have and it can’t hurt to reach out, if just to get a sense of the market. It can also be worth emailing companies you’d like to work with (e.g. interesting or nearby) with a quick note offering your services. Even if they aren’t hiring permanent sometimes there’s budget for a contractor.
My Linux DAW regularly trumps that.
Thank you so much taking your time to write this down! It helps me in a recent situation.
I would go one step further: don't Google the existing solutions at all. If you haven't heard of any one of them by the time you are done conceiving it you are in the exact same position as the other companies are, possibly minus some funding and their initial batch of customers.

There are far more potential customers that haven't heard from either of you yet. So your next order of battle then becomes to try to contact as many of those potential customers ahead of any of your - would be - competitors.

Competition is healthy it keeps you sharp, but don't bother mapping it until you've established your position well enough that you are actually in competition, until that time it is usually a waste of time.

On the other side of all this: if you have heard of a particular company that executes on an idea you have had as well then unless you are willing to eventually go head-to-head with that company you may as well leave it alone. Chances are they are so far ahead on the 'mindshare' metric that a head-to-head battle will be extremely costly leaving you with a much diluted share in your own venture once all is said and done. If you're comfortable with that go ahead but if I were in the position of a founder I'd prefer a start-up where the founders had majority control until at least well past series 'A'.
Ubuntu Studio just works.
I don't think I'm the one being rude here. But you and I have a long history of miscommunication and this is probably not the way to hash it out.

Surely the 10¢ discount should be for the people who _don't_ bring their own cup.

They tend not to be grids because a lot of cities were built before the advent of cars, and renovating would be basically impossible.

Cities that had the opportunity to rebuild (like Chicago after the 1871 fire) make use of grids.

They push conversion so hard. If you sell something in eur/usd while your origin country uses different currency paypal will allow you to send money only to bank account of that currency and country you are based in. They say it is required by law. Of course when you make the transfer they inform you that that bank account is not in eur/usd and that they have converted it for you. And their conversion rates were like 4% worse than my banks which is about 4% worse than something like transferwise/revolut.

Cutting down ~8% thats after paypal fees is not fun. I switched.
Flipping it inside out every time would solve most of these problems. The scraps would come out and thinks would get a chance to evaporate.

It's not a luxury product solution, sure. But if I was traveling to a poor country and everyone was doing it, I'd consider it clever and just go along with it.
What would you call it then? Otherwise it's just entitlement to something because you can't buy it - "oh look, this movie is not available to purchase in my country, I guess I'm getting it for free!". It's not anyone's god-given right to be able to get every media ever released - if it's not available in your market then either import it, or....don't get it?

However if the entire point of your article is to talk about how emoji look, it's a terrible idea to include them verbatim when discussing a specific design.

It's clear that in certain cases the article talks about a reference design or how the emojis are supposed to look. They likely checked in a browser on macOS to make sure it reads correctly, too.
