True. But I doubt that even the most ruthlessly efficient GDPR enforcement authority could multiple enforcement requests between mid July and end July.
That's fine, but my point was not that Kolibri Image took the appropriate steps immediately, but whether the commenters here on HN were correct in their estimation that the various data protection authorities would help you resolve compliance issues versus just issuing you fines.

Employees selling discounted goods to friends is a big source of losses for many retail shops.

That's why they normally have very rigid discounting rules. Discounts are allowed on the day of expiry for example, and the discount percentage is based on how many hours till closing time.

If the goods are bruised and not yet on the day of expiry, they don't allow discounting, although the product can be binned.

Some food gets wasted, but employee fraud would be far larger any other way.

Also, news sites should let the readers know if an article has been altered since it's published. Time and time again, I've seen some news sites (some of them are even reputable ones) silently modified an article without changing the published date, or not showing the date because of this very reason. I don't know how we can stop the practice, but at least we should be aware of it.
Fair enough, I just disagree with the premise that heavily relying on the type system actually lets you think less hard about how to implement your code. In my experience, defining the types you'll use at module boundaries is the actual hardest part. The stuff in the middle is usually straightforward until you realize you need sub-modules, at which point you're defining module boundary types again.
Yeah, I tried adding it manually and it didn't work. Very strange!

I went to high school in Belmont MA in the early 90's. For extra credit in our drafting class, we could volunteer to help build a playground at one of the elementary schools. The adults that were also "participating"? Prisoners. Nobody told us, and when I offered my pocket knife to one of the adults, he laughed and said "I don't think you want to give me that!" I learned weeks later that they were inmates.

Nice job, teacher.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you're saying, but how on Earth would a function

f :: (a -> b -> c) -> b -> a -> c

result in

f (+) 1 2

evaluating to

"cookie"

? For one, the types (obviously, to me at least) don't work out.
It's my understanding that we have to involve a function call as a fallback, as a function call is the only way we have of producing a value of type c in the general case.

But we could potentially have some list of exceptions.

So one valid implementation would be: If c is string we always return hello world elseif a, b and c are integers we add the two ints. Elseif a and b are the same type we call the function with the argument order swapped. And finally, if none of these are the case, we call call the function with the arguments.

Edit: I stand corrected, the legislation will indeed harm tenements. I would suggest that arguing against legislation by showing a supporter's hypocrisy may not be the strongest approach. It is a tad fallacious after all.

Full disclosure, my incorrect original post:

Find a guy with dirt that supports protecting rent controlled units. Use that to attempt to discredit legislation that helps tenants.

If the best argument against protecting rental units is a weak Tu Quoque, then perhaps protecting duplex rentals is a good idea.
the blockchain only contains wallet addresses, not info about who is buying what. only sites having access to the checkout can know that.
The problem, I think, is when people conflate coordinates and properties. Each dimension is a component of the coordinate and is expected to increase the extent of simultaneously indexable positions, each of which is assigned its own properties configuration.

There is a common conceit to treat a vector of possible properties as one (small) dimension. For example, we can make your light field hold an RGB value at each coordinate. We can alternatively interpret this as a 5D field of 3D luminance vectors or a 6D field of luminance scalars.

However, if someone writes out a set of these light-field measurements as individual measurements, they might append the coordinate vector and the properties vector into one longer point (x, y, z, a1, a2, r, g, b) and claim it is 8D. However, that perspective ignores that a real light field cannot store more than one color combination at a given (x, y, z, a1, a2) coordinate. An arbitrary 8D point cloud can represent nonsensical, sparse superpositions of multiple light fields.

In addition to the other poster, it's clear political corruption:

A person merges their duplex. Peskin blocks it using his position on the neighborhood board. Peskin then acquires the now illegal single family home at a large discount. Peskin, a city official, then manages to get a permit for the exact thing that he had blocked not three years earlier.

> We like to talk about healthcare like it's a free market but it's not.

Emergency medical care isn't.

But most other things are.

It should be possible to shop around for imaging and testing services. The regular "family doctor" is something families can (or at least should) be able to choose at will.

Heck people shop dentists all the time. They shop physical therapists, and even mental health providers.

If all the local X-Ray providers near me publish their prices online the fact is prices will drop, and that will likely carry over to what price is paid during emergency services as well. It will be hard to charge someone 5k for an X-Ray in the same imaging center that has a price of $120 listed on their website!

What are you talking about? Smoking is inhaling the smoke of a burned product. Vaping is not. It's not comparable. The bad part of smoking tobacco is not the nicotine, it's all of the terrible health effects of inhaling smoke. Other than addiction nicotine has very few negative health effects.

> I think EF needs to expand its reach far beyond relational databases.

I'm not sure I could disagree more. I don't think it's feasible to abstract away the underlying realities of different data stores. That tends to end in a mediocre API that handcuffs you from utilizing the advantages of choosing varying data stores in the first place.

ORMs in general already suffer this criticism with relational data stores. Trying to make an ORM cover documents and graphs and whatever else will be worse.

I also thought the Microsoft and the .Net community were moving away from stuffing everything and the kitchen sink in together.

I'm going through a sort of mini-midlife crisis right now and one of the things I'm thinking about is whether I can make music part of my life again. I used to be in a rock band and it was tons of fun, but I'm in my 40s with kids so the logistics of rehearsing with other people and playing shows at night make that unlikely.

Another path I'm considering is making electronic music. That's mostly what I listen to and I used to tinker with it before I started a band, so I have some experience with synthesizers, beats, etc. It's much more amenable to my life style now because I can do it after the kids go to bed. But also, back then, I had a lot of trouble getting anything done and often ended up feeling disappointed.

It's not enough for me to just noodle with a synth for a few hours. I want something I can share with other people, which implies to me that I need to be able to finish things. So I'm just trying to figure out strategies for that before I drop money on gear only to have it collect dust.
I grew up in a Lyme hotspot. Every early outdoor memory of mine involved checking for ticks afterwards.

My younger brother had the bullseye as a very young child. My mother had a different very debilitating tick borne illness, Babesiosis, but was only treated for Lyme for months.

I had a blood test when I was 20, and was told I was positive for Lyme. I had zero symptoms of Lyme, and had been spending most of my time living out of the region at college, though I had complained of some general fatigue. They put me on doxycycline, and I dutifully took it. I still don't know whether I actually had Lyme. My father, a chronic hypochondriac, was put on a Lyme regimen at one point too, though it was never clear exactly what symptoms he had.

I'm not entirely sure the point I'm getting at with these anecdotes. Doctors in Lyme hotspots may diagnose Lyme too readily. More specifically, they may order too many blood tests, which from my naive research do not look to be especially accurate for Lyme.
This goes against the reports I have seen with photos of farmers dumping mountains of bananas that didn't fit supermarket guidelines.
Hi! I'm further left than most progressives.

Our society is not homogenous enough to make a statement like "white supremacist society" substantial. However, there are three closely-related truths which are pretty obvious about our society:

* Our society is, itself, a fascist, classist, militaristic society.

* Pockets of people and parochial cultures in some specific regions are white supremacists.

This isn't definitional or axiomatic, but if you don't perceive these things as true in your day-to-day experience of our country, then you're not likely to feel that they're true. And that's fine! We don't have to agree. But it's useful to point out how and where we don't agree.

You think destroying bank records will remove the power inequality from the system? Good luck with that, kid.

Power has money, but money isn't power. It's the table scraps the rest of us chase after. It's also why you can tax the rich all you want and it won't take their power away. The transactions that truly matter to them aren't usually denominated in dollars. Cash is Plan B at best.

Don't believe me? Look at stories about nouveau rich not being taken seriously. You have to work your butts off to get your kids taken seriously (if you aren't lucky or fast enough, your grandkids, assuming your kids haven't blown their inheritance by then). You don't know anybody, and you don't have anything they need. All you have is money.

Check out https://github.com/woutervh-/TypeScript-is. It works as a compile-time transformer which emits the type guard code for a given type and narrows down the type for you. You just call `is<T>` (returns a bool and narrows if true) or `assertType<T>` (narrows or throws an error). We've used it in production with great success.
The logic is more "why add complicated features to a language when there are existing ways to have the same functionality". C++ is already over complicated, the last thing it needs are more features. This effort is also being replicated across several languages with all there own syntax and warts. Generating source code via a script or template library is much more compositional.

There is no tobacco in the e-cigs. The inhalants are liquid droplets that are about 10 times larger than the smoke particles they replace. They do far less damage to the lungs, and deliver a tiny fraction of the carcinogens that smoking does.

Vaping isn't a euphemism. It's really a different thing altogether. In fact, I euphemize it back to "smoking" because I hate the term "vaping". It sounds so lame.

An entire economy is built around Salesforce. For every dollar that Salesforce makes, its ecosystem generates $4. Millions of developers build apps for Salesforce’s platform, and Salesforce development is itself a lucrative niche within software engineering.

So Salesforce has turned themselves into an ecosystem. No wonder they're doing well. What's the secret to turning yourself into an ecosystem? It must involve low barriers to entry and the ability to make money within the ecosystem.

Sounds like I'm a Salesforce shill here, but...for some context I presently work as a developer in the charitable/volunteer sector at the moment. I'm 52, with around 30 years in the biz building all sorts of stuff in COBOL, Clipper, Java, CORBA, VB, C#....and worked with all sorts of databases.

Here's my take in my current situ:

Salesforce do some mighty decent things for voluntary/charitable orgs. One of them being that if you're a charitable/volunteer sector operator you get Salesforce Enterprise edition for free. Now, despite being aware of Salesforce, until about six months ago I'd never used it, and thought "oh-oh" when a project went down this route.

But you know something I kinda like it.

I sense some "dislike" here about Salesforce here on HN, and sure it has some road humps and other things, but it's become a developer platform, and with many developer platforms you need to spend some time learning to make it work for you. But it's not that hard. I think their docs and training material are pretty decent. We also use their SFDX bits so basically we can check in an entire org to source control and run deployments into sandboxes for testing before deploying into production. Their Visual Code tooling is pretty decent as well.

Lightning, Apex, Callouts, Creating inbound REST API's...what's not to like if you can bish-bash-bosh something for a client quickly and build an working MVP?

We can build a bunch of apps for these voluntary/charitable folks fairly quickly and much faster than we could with .NET/SQL (or something else) which would otherwise cost them a lot more money.

I realise it's not for everyone, sometimes it feels a bit "Scientology"'ish once you're into the eco-system, but it's a tool.

Use it, don't use it, it's up to you.

Doing that just ~10 times (with independant users/profiles) will probably eliminate those results when the ML model is next trained. Assuming this Dr isn't a celebrity, he probably doesn't get more than a few searches per month, so 10 in the same day will be a massive signal.

Note to person behind this: It will have even more impact if each turker is instructed to click only one of the desired links. Clicking "back" to a google search result is a strong signal that the page you clicked didn't answer your query.
