Restrictions to use of public information is routine in the U.S. as well, e.g. there are public record archives where the public is allowed to review content but not allowed to use photographs, scanners, or even writing utensils with paper to take away information. You can only leave with what you stuff into your head.

This French law still leaves court papers conveniently accessible, it seems, to anyone with a browser. Anyone, working alone or in a team, can still analyze particular judges' tendencies, just not with automated help. So your conclusion "you are forbidden to summarize or think about the conclusions of said events and share your findings" doesn't quite hold. Since the volume of these papers is so huge, the law forces you to be motivated to focus on and analyze a particular judge or type of case or court system ... the cost isn't justifiable otherwise. It's kind of a de facto "warrant" system ... if you really want to search for weird judicial behavior you need to pay the price. In that light the French law isn't any more unreasonable than the U.S. public records review example.
Yes. If you're not in a real hurry, move left and let somebody else prompt the less observant driver to change lanes.
> If you get 10 email per days for 10 years

I recall times (mid 2000's) when I was active in a bunch of open-source communities and mailing lists were the main way to discuss. Getting around 50 e-mail per day was normal.

I kept a lot of those discussions in my e-mail client for later reference, because the mailing list website had sub-par search function compared to Mozilla e-mail client I used at the time.

It's possible he's using it as an e-mail archive for mailing lists or something like that.
Well, you should be aware that a lot of people who spend a lot of time on HN are bitter, because their own ideas did not flourish and they are stuck in a mediocre job, so wandering on HN and alike to get inspirational spirit, but with jealousy, so not eager to love new things at first sight, but to smash them. But they are also able to applaud something if they love it.

So of course it is possible that your work is not the best, if random internet strangers can crush it easily.

I found HN to be a much nicer place than most other places on the internet, but still, you should not expect anonymous people to be nice. Not in this internet, not in this world with all its freaky, unhappy people. Happy people usually have other things to tend to, that makes them happy, than posting all the time. So don't take it too personal. View it as a challenge and don't try to please a internetmob.
I think it's a less obvious test when it's through the mail, as opposed to through a court, which could prevent a lot of undue stress on a child who isn't to blame for their parent's divorce.
If you email me without the +merchant postfix I gave you, your email will go into the trash without me even knowing you sent it.

Americans have killed thousands of unarmed civilians with their drones so far. I don't see how a truck equipped with guided missles is more dangerous. Especially armed americans have a better chance to kill the driver than a drone pilot who is sitting thousands of miles away from you.
VS is pretty nice if you run it without plugins that slow it down (like ReSharper)
This can’t be for real and isn’t.

It is illegal to try to criticise a court decision in a way that is designed to impede the justice system and/or to interfere with the independence of the judiciary.
That's my experience as well.

Most of the content that I watch and the content creators that I'm subscribed to comes from the recommendations. As far as I'm concerned, the algorithm works great.
>what is the person supposed to do once they get the results of their private test

The person is not "supposed to do" anything. It's the norm to let people make free, unrestricted choices as long as all parties involved consent. You generally need a good reason to restrict these activities in Western culture.

>Another issue to me is that they must have provided the DNA of their child to a private entity (probably without telling the mother either) and I'm not sure I like that.

In most countries parents are allowed to do all these things. Why change parental rights merely in the case of paternity tests?
> invasion of privacy, and potential harm to the children's psyche

On the other hand, if you're going to extract payment, you should probably have to provide evidence that payment is due.
They fixed many of those recently. And just in case you have a script that doesn't run, you can install a plugin called `bass` that basically runs them in your native bash without leaving fish.
>So? Apple doesn't ship updated packages. It never did.

The parent's point is that Apple had to do something with updating their bash userland, as they don't want to use the later GPLv3 versions.

Apple does ship updated packages (it has routinely updated Python, Ruby, and tons of other UNIX userland).

It just doesn't update old GPLv3 packages, so it was left with an old bash.

Your suggestion "if you want updates" refers to the parent, who already knows all you wrote. His point is that Apple wanted to update the default shell (but couldn't as long as it was bash), not them. Given that, the context, the homebrew suggestion is irrelevant.
It's not true. They're talking about a law from 1958 (under a conservative president, like almost all of them until 1981) that makes it illegal to criticise a court decision in order to undermine the legitimacy of justice.

It's okay to criticise a court decision if you just don't agree with it, but not to say "see this judgments? it shows all judges are corrupted".
Dropbox ups storage to 2TB, adds Smart Sync, increases price
Thanks, this helps me understand and I appreciate you going into cost model for something that’s really up to you to decide.

$4 is not very much, you’re right, but that doesn’t mean that it should be spent unwisely otherwise it adds up quickly. It seems unlikely that this would need a full time dev to operate and seems more like a “4 hour workweek” type business once it’s set up that would have pretty minimal maintenance, or a super bored developer waiting around for a bug to patch.

Do you think you’ll drop the price once you no longer need a dev?
Does anyone know if we can use GPU (metal) with this new API. It wasn’t possible before.
Wouldn't these same privacy issues come up if someone submitted their own DNA for an ancestry test? And yet, these tests are not illegal.
Anti lock braking and wheel surface contact will make big differences between cars in braking behavior. Those AMG not only have better brakes, with possibly better software controlling ABS, but also wider tires. With formulas [1]

I live in Germany and get to drive on the no-speed-limit Autobahn regularly. It's fun! But what many newcomers or tourists fail to understand is that you can't just go and drive 230 km/h just because there's no speed limit. Whether or not you can safely drive 230 km/h hugely depends on circumstances, mainly on how dense the traffic is. If the left lane is almost permanently completely empty: go for it! If the left lane is regularly used for passing people in the middle lane, then driving 230 km/h makes you a dangerous amateur who's actively endangering other people's lives.

Unfortunately, people who've never driven the Autobahn before don't usually get this and some seem to get in a blind haze and just push push push until their car is at their speed limit. That can be so stupid and dangerous. Use your common sense, please.
> you should be aware that a lot of people who spend a lot of time on HN are bitter, because their own ideas did not flourish and they are stuck in a mediocre job, so wandering on HN and alike to get inspirational spirit, but with jealousy

I would guess that technology played a major role in lowering water consumption. Most of household water use comes from washing clothes, dishes, bathing, and of course watering the lawn and garden.

Automatic clothes and dishwashers are far more common now, and today’s models are more efficient than than manually performing the same task by hand. Simple automated drip irrigation systems can be had from any local hardware store, customizable to deliver the exact amount of water needed to plants at the most optimal time to minimize wasted water from evaporation.
And low pressure shower heads are everywhere now; the ridiculous hurricane bathroom shower of the 70s and 80s is only fond childhood memory.
I am not a lawyer but as far as I am aware it is illegal to say publicly for instance that a court decision was politically motivated. You might argue that it would undermine the justice system but this is 100% in lack of accountability territory.
3D printing is slow and parts can be hard to produce due to support needs and warp. A low volume injection molding machine would definitely be useful, especially if the molds would last 10's to 100's of pieces.
> the nails are only there to hold it until the glue dries

This is a phrase my brother, a cabinet maker/ jointer, uses... And tests occasionally: Glue 2 pieces of timber together at 90 degrees and clamp it normally. When dry, break the join (by bashing it with a hammer is his general way) to see if it's the glue or the timber. Nearly all of the glue he tests are stronger than the timber (Oz, US and Asian hardwoods), as it's the timber that is ripped apart, and not the glue join.

A bottle of standard PVA-B (/ exterior grade) from the local hardware store is pretty excellent.

When you think about glue, it's everywhere these days. All timber laminates (eg kitchen bench tops, plywood, particle board, MDF, and finger jointed/laminated timber) are just 'glued'. A lot of this is structural timber (ie designed to last decades).

From the article:

> This joint failed by the wood in the post shearing along the growth rings

This is the most common place of failure when witnessing my brother's "tests", and makes a lot of sense it happens that way too. The glue should have been the strongest part of ALL of his tests. It looks like he 'over clamped' the timber (ie squeezed out all the glue) in few of his photos [0]: which is something my brother has warned me about, as it makes the join weak.

My power company will literally give you a refund for this if you call them. I don’t think I’m entitled to a refund, but good customer service gives me one.

Of course, I get one free pass at that and if I did it over and over, I’m hosed. The difference is that my utility is regulated and has a phone number and a human whose job it is to talk to all customers.

> motive might be to keep the state stable at the expense of individuals

I would argue this is exactly what a government shouldn't be doing. They can continue doing so until enough people get fed up with it and cause a civil unrest. Not the same reasons but things like Brexit and the France protests are all caused because of the people getting fed up of the government.

If I understand the horribly-organized website and YouTube video correctly, you spend $12,500 for the machine, which can be plugged into a standard outlet, and which creates plastic parts up to 6 inches in diameter. In order to make the molds, you must also buy a CNC machine; theirs is $7000 (any CNC would work). The plastics cost about $25 a pound.

> It is presumptious to think that anyone could say anything constructive without generalising or insulting.

People manage to do that just fine all the time. All that's required is to write with the presumption that people might have different experiences. It's fine to suggest that some people are not living healthy lives if they don't have more social contact, and that it's a good idea to ask yourself why you might have a negative reaction to someone suggesting you have more, because everyone ought to understand their own needs and sometimes we don't.

What came across as insulting was that it is worded in a way that suggests this applies to everyone, and that people with different experiences just don't know how bad we have it. That generalization was unnecessary and took away from the overall point.

> when there are a e.g. million+ people in japan who don't leave their bedrooms and never grow up or grow out then there is obviously a new unsustainable pattern of anti-social behaviour

And the way to address that is to with the simple qualification of addressing specifically those who are unhappy with their situation, instead of suggesting that everyone who chooses to have most of their social contact online must necessarily be miserable.

I have no problems believing that lots of people are terribly lonely. At the same time I know that ironically a lot of people put a lot of energy into telling people who are not lonely to be more social. If only they'd spend that energy on people who want more contact (here's a simple one I wish more people would try: give eye contact to people you meet, and ask "how are you?" and actually wait for an answer when e.g. interacting with people in service jobs - you'll be astonished how quickly people will pour out built up emotions on near total strangers the moment someone shows the smallest sign of caring even if that sign is something as basic as actually waiting for an answer instead of just treating questions like that as meaningless greetings) instead of continuing to try to get people like me who are perfectly happy to be more social.
In France, those ancestry tests are illegal too.
This (more or less accurate) charge of being copycats who do little domestic innovation was true earlier of Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan and South Korea, and before them of Japan. It was true for decades of China too. This is just what happens when you’re doing catch up growth. There are huge easy wins by doing in your country what other people in other countries already know how to do, but cheaper because labour is cheap in your country because you’re poor. Or in taking a poorly managed company and making it marginally better managed every year until you’re as productive as the leading firms in your industry were a decade or two decades ago. Innovation is great but not being poor does not require innovation, it requires doing things that are well within the technological frontier. Eventually some small industrial cluster approaches the global frontier and then is at it in some industry. It just takes time.

Beyond the Dark Forest
The legal costs of a divorce are not very high in France (I should know) justice is quite different from the US. And a legal paternity test is 150€, which is cheaper than what most private labs offer.

> consensual activity

> all parties involved consent

Well that's the crux of it, indeed. Most private testing is not done in a consensual way because that would require the assent of the child, which is likely minor, meaning it requires the assent of both its legal parents. If you have the assent of both the father and mother, it's easy (and free) to ask a court to allow the testing.
If you can't safely merge use the emergency lane if there is one and get off it as soon as you can, this can get you fined but it is safer than a merge with too much speed difference. The proper way to do it is to anticipate the fact that you can't make it in time and to wait at the start of the on-ramp until you can safely merge.
The point is, I think it’s not the best tool for the author and that if he had more help he would find a better tool.

If course, it’s pretty much impossible to literally know this, as how in the world do you know what people have tried or what they are capable of. As someone who once worked in tech support, I learned not to believe people who say “I tried everything and I have a unique need that I can’t explain to you.” Only to learn they didn’t try everything and their computer is not plugged in.

There are a few steps I need to know about between “ADHD; ???; therefore Twitter” before I understand.

I think this is an opportunity to help the author learn about new advances in microblogging that will reduce the number of people who ignore or don’t understand the content. I think it’s possible for the author to adapt, rather than requiring thousands of people to adapt on their own. That’s inefficient.

You made a shell script because people unfamiliar with shell scripts might need to find files using the shell?

An alias like alias xsearch="grep -rnw -e" would probably replace what you just built and I hope anyone able to install your script could at least figure out how to edit and source their .bashrc file.

When I had look at it, as a foreign speaker, it sounded like a joke. It seems that the gist of it is to be able to write correctly tons of completely mispronounced foreign (non-English) words. What about a pronunciation bee? A contest where native English speakers are challenged to pronounce correctly, or at least intelligibly, words coming from French, Spanish, Italian?

> Only someone that never used Common Lisp, Smalltak, Delphi, C++ Builder and other 4GLs in the 90's, can be impressed by Dart's "technical capabilities".

Am I meant to be impressed by this list of languages? I'm not. Are the number of languages meant to give your inexperienced opinion on Flutter's development environment some credence or is this washy strawman meant to downplay anyone else's opinion who wasn't a developer in the 90's when these languages were more relevant?

What matters is what's relevant now and Flutter lets you build modern x-plat Mobile, Web, Desktop and Embedded Apps with productive Live Hot Reload environment that's both fast at development and runtime which can be run in a JIT VM, as AOT compiled or transpiled to tree-shaken JS. Which of these above languages provides a more productive and "technically impressive" environment to develop iOS/Android, Web and Embedded Apps than Dart/Flutter?

> Flutter is a way to rescue Dart, plain and simple.

Adding "plain and simple" to an baseless opinion doesn't re-enforce it, including links that backs up this wild speculation will. What information have you used to be able present this opinion as fact so staunchly? Do you really believe Google invented and funded the Flutter project out of thin air to give Dart a popularity boost?

> And Android team surely has more political power, given ChromeOS and Fuchsia adoption of ART.

How can Android have more political power for Fuchsia than Dart which is what most of its UI is written in? You can also develop Flutter Apps on Chrome OS so that's no different. Chrome OS is still primarily a Web OS, allowing running Android Apps doesn't make it an OS for running Android Apps and devs aren't going to be lining up to develop Chrome OS Apps using Android.

Flutter's strength's is that you can develop x-plat App's that looks, behaves and runs natively on all its supported platforms - feel free to wait until Kotlin reaches the same maturity on iOS before declaring it a Flutter killer. Kotlin still suffers from Android's complicated and fragile tooling and from what I've seen with JetPack compose it's highly coupled to Android - it's going to take a long time before they'll let you build iOS/Android Apps from a single code base.

provided you are not concerned about protecting specific people, an effective countermeasure is to have a large number `n` of people distributed in space, where `n` is much larger than `d`, where `d` is the number of suicide drones.

Here are some general costs of this policy:

* it weakens trust in the institution of marriage

* many men are financially responsible for children they would not be responsible for otherwise

* many men are emotionally invested in children and relationships they might not be invested in otherwise, to the possible detriment of their (generally shaky) mental health before, during, and after divorce

* it reduces the penalties for infidelity, which may have an effect on people's behavior
