> A company making any effort to be legitimate should use one of the several identity verification services available in combination with any sort of nontrivial fraud detection, which should easily dissuade 99.9% of thieves.

Not so. Thieves aren't stupid. They try a few times to figure out the system, then steal the identity of someone else (who is legit and passes fraud and credit checks) to do the actual theft.

The portability of the gear, combined with it's high resale value, means rentals will never work for an online business.
I think an interesting takeaway is that mapbox loads more than 2x of google maps. Is that because of poor/more implementation or something on mapbox's end?
The C library is generally considered a part of the OS and the overall toolchain. Clang is "merely" a C compiler.

The C library provides implementations for the platform-neutral language functions like "open/read/write/close/ioctl/dup/dup2" and more.

how could they go after youtube-dl? It's like going after my browser for downloading the video!

I understand if it's a third-party site, because they'd have to make a copy of the video for you to have downloaded it (and only if it's one of those copying types - if all the site did was to compute the download-link, then it doesn't fall foul of any copyright at all).
Sounds like an LLVM "recommended" libc?

Loved the third point in Rich's reply:

"there is tremendous value in non-monoculture of libc
implementations, or implementations of any important library
interfaces or language runtimes. Likewise there's tremendous value in
non-monoculture of tooling (compilers, linkers, etc.). Avoiding
monoculture preserves the motivation for consensus-based standards
processes rather than single-party control (see also: Chrome and what
it's done to the web) and the motivation for people writing software
to write to the standards rather than to a particular implementation.
A big part of making that possible is clear delineation of roles
between parts of the toolchain and runtime, with well-defined
interface boundaries. Some folks have told me that I should press LLVM
to make musl the "LLVM libc" instead of whatever Google wants to do,
but that misses the point: there shouldn't be a "LLVM libc", or any
one library implementation that's "first class" for use with LLVM
while others are only "second class"."
Ask HN: Gmail not formatting URLs pasted from Firefox?
If I type https://test.com into the address bar of Firefox, cut/copy said URL, and paste it into Gmail there is no automatic formatting (IE I can't visit the URL, it is purely text).

If I paste the URL into a Chromium address bar, immediately cut/copy it, and paste it back into Gmail (which is still open in Firefox) - it is now formatted as a link.

Why?
Clang is a C language family frontend for LLVM. That is, it's a compiler for C and C++ and related languages.

Libc is the C standard library, and there are multiple implementations of it, e.g. glibc and musl. Clang does not include an implementation of libc, though it does have an implementation of the C++ standard library called libc++: https://libcxx.llvm.org/

It's not immediately clear to me why an LLVM implementation of the C++ standard library would be desirable while an implementation of the C standard library would be undesirable.
> The CDC says post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome or 'chronic lyme' doesn't exist.

You're conflating two terms. PTLDS exists, in patients who had Lyme but experience post-treatment symptoms.

"Chronic Lyme" is different, and is largely problematic because the folks who believe they have it tend to have never actually been exposed to Lyme in the first place.

Older native English speakers usually just go with "I said", at all levels of formality. You might hear "I says" in the past tense too.

The increased separation of a "natural and spontaneous" register of English seems to have been mostly a function of 1970s-1990s youth culture - you can hear this in "candid microphone" radio shows before this period [1], where there's surprisingly little difference (to a young-ish native speaker like me) between the recorded colloquial usage and the formal standard English of speeches/literature/film. Lots mid-century film sounds stilted to us, but people actually spoke like that.

> any one library implementation that's "first class" for use with LLVM while others are only "second class"."

I agree with Zachary here. LLVM's really good at mixing and matching w/target libs IMO (and linkers too, while we're at it). FWIW lld and libc++/abi have been a part of the llvm project for a long time now and BFD ld and libstdc++ are still the defaults for the linux clang driver.

> PRECISELY. If everybody understands the negotiated rate, then any size organization can argue for that rate. This would make it easier for smaller-scale companies to get the same rates as larger plans and also reduce some of the incentives for large insurer / care company mergers that seem to be really rent-seeking given the industry comment on this order.

The fallacy is assuming large insurer / care companies are interested in paying more to providers or keeping a lot for themselves.

Insurers work on margins, floats and risk pools.

More the better.

They would rather have more insured to have a larger float, a more diverse risk pool and lesser margins but more volume.

Also, why would a large insurer be OK with a smaller-scale company getting the same rate?

No market I know of works that way - a larger negotiating body always gets an advantage over a smaller negotiating body.

Which is WHY smaller companies want to become larger companies.

Otherwise it would not make sense - it's way easier and cheaper to run a smaller company than a larger company for example.

The growing disconnect between the politics and the reality of renewables versus (specifically) coal is troubling.

The current Australian government has been denying climate change since they came to power in 2013. They've been talking down renewables and placing national-security-scale importance of the role of coal in Australia's future economic success (which I actually find a significant worry because the bottom will drop out of the coal market sooner rather than later). Without much support from federal government policy (but with some support from state governments), renewables in Australia have been steadily growing in their contribution to the overall energy generation mix at a rate higher than expectations, such is the purely commercial justification of renewables.

And yet politics is trying to (s|t)ell a different narrative without providing any foundational reasoning other than motherhood statements about the importance of coal to Australia's economy.

Either politicians know more than they're letting on about the fragile state of Australia's economy and its fundamental over-dependence on a single mineral, or the Australian powers-that-be are over-dependent on a single mineral for their power base.

The more politicians talk down renewables, the more they damage their legitimacy on any other topic; the more they advertise that their speeches are for sale.
No, it's very common for them to be written in primarily C. But I'm obligated to mention (as a member of the Rust Evangelism Strike Force) that you don't have to write them in C. ;)

Many implementations do have performance-critical parts be target-dependent and implemented in assembly. IIRC glibc has more of this than musl/newlib/bionic, but it's been a while since I last looked.

> I'll never understand why lawmakers think that fruit and other flavorings for tobacco are aimed at getting kids hooked.

Candy cigarettes. Big League Chew. And now e-cigarettes. It's common (and now scientifically documented) knowledge that tobacco companies have used these types of flavors and products to target young smokers. There is decades of evidence and little reason to believe it won't continue.

Whether it's 'fair' to adults in terms of how many flavors they have access to is up for debate but the lawmakers' reasoning is sound.

> Advocates of public health care consider candy cigarettes (cigarette sweets) one example of the way in which international trademark or copyright laws are violated to promote tobacco products to children.1,2 People with vested interests in confectionery and tobacco have denied these claims and argued that restrictions on confectionery resembling tobacco products are unnecessary. We review recently available documents from the tobacco industry, which describe cooperation between the manufacturers of tobacco and candy cigarettes, ineffectual trademark enforcement, evidence that candy cigarettes may promote smoking, suppression of unfavourable findings from research sponsored by the confectionery industry, and successful attempts to avoid legislation or regulation.

> Summary points

> * Candy products that mimic packaging of tobacco brands may promote smoking in young people

> * Executives of both the tobacco and confectionery industries have regarded candy cigarettes as good advertising to future smokers

> * Some tobacco companies granted confectioners permission to use cigarette pack designs and tolerated trademark infringement

> * Children who have used candy cigarettes are more likely to become smokers

> * Unfavourable research sponsored by the US candy cigarette industry was suppressed

> * Elimination of candy cigarettes and other confectionery resembling tobacco products may help achieve public health goals of reducing tobacco use in young people
In my experience, most older people would be more literal: I told him/her, I said, I says (pronounced sez, informal). If it wasn't speech but another action, it would be similar. "I'm like" is probably from the 70's, so it is pretty common.

We are likely in a supply constrained situation right now, prices would be nicer if there was excess supply.

> most programmers even at Google and Amazon would not even be able to either read or write such code

Hello, I am at Amazon. I spend a decent portion of my time working with an in-house Clojure library (not entirely dissimilar to Haskell) which handles some mission critical business logic my team owns.

It terrifies me. I hate it.

For every hour I spend working with it, I spend another hour trying to convince everyone we need to rewrite it in Java, immediately, or replace it with a different library. None of us have a clue how it works. We can't debug it. The guy who wrote it quit three years ago.

I mean, it works. It works very well. But the day it doesn't work, we're not going to have a clue why that is. And then we're in real trouble.

There are certain kinds of bacteria that you need to stain, because otherwise they are nearly perfectly transparent, but there are lots of larger bacteria that you can see well with even a fairly cheap microscope, of the type that teenagers use in school. Indeed, when I was 15 years old, I remember watching a lot of single celled organisms crawl around in the microscope that I was assigned at school. Although most bacteria tend to be on the smaller side of single celled organisms, some larger bacteria are still easy to see, even with such cheap microscopes.
I actually trade a lot with Interactive Brokers, both stocks and options, and their order execution is so good that I was able to do some risk-free arbitrage as late as earlier this year. Basically whatever/however can get filled, they will do as good of a job as anyone else, and basically providing direct access to exchanges and dark pools.
Besides that, they also offer several order execution/filling & accumulation algos provided by external firms, such as Jefferies, Fox River and CSFB, which will snipe or accumulate any order quantity available through dark pools, before market opens, after hours, etc.
And IB also provides several algos on their own, which will also tap dark pools, accumulate shares based on volatility, VWAP, and whatnot.
IB basically specializes in order execution to a level I haven't seen offered from any other brokers. And that's besides offering decent API and lowest commissions in the industry.
IB often also has hard-to-borrow shares available for shorting, which are much harder to find through other brokers.
Though one contender that I'd like to try and compare to IB, would be Lightspeed.

> Overnight 50% hyperinflation of the dollar would mean 2 USD worth of BTC/EUR/GBP/milk/anything bought yesterday could be sold for 3 USD today.

Ahh, but BTC doesn't belong in that list at all. The Euro and Sterling are backed by large, stable economies, used by each to value their exports. Milk is a commodity, which has intrinsic value (not to mention cost to produce, market, transport, regulate, and sell). BTC is an asset, but not anything like REIT or bonds, because it doesn't represent anything of actual worth. Or, skipping some steps, its only worth is that you can convince someone it will eventually have any value at all.

Cryptocurrencies are unique among all other assets in that, at the bottom of them, they are figuratively bankrupt and actually meaningless. There are no goods valued solely in BTC (even black market stuff is like "$100 / .0092 BTC") and no strong, stable economy backing it. At the end of the day, BTC basically says "someone will give you a lot of currency you actually care about for these zeroes and ones", and because those zeroes and ones have no additional value (i.e. it's not a cure for cancer or a TLS skeleton key), the proposition is literally worthless.

So yes. Normally that is what inflation means, but only for currencies that can actually purchase goods and services people want, or goods people actually want to consume, or services people actually want to use. Cryptocurrencies are none of those things.
