Interestingly, the only recent French tech company to be even remotely globally relevant (Criteo), is also affected.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_companies_of_France is a good list to look at. There is only one other software/internet company founded in France since 2000 in the 'Notable' list - 360Learning. About a third of the list was founded before 1900. A very different list than what you'd see in the US.

Is there really some expectation for a carrier to be more than that? I just want a fast, reliable service that connects my phone to the internet. Is there actually profit in providing more than that?
You can't be precious on Upwork. And there's a strong GIGO factor.

What you have to do is churn a bunch of jobs/contractors until you get the one that really pays off. Don't let the hassles get to you, just keep turning the crank.
You can turn it off if you don't like it. If one doesn't know enough to turn it off, one probably shouldn't be turning it off.
Does that mean that EU citizens should also pay for these services? Or do you expect these companies would continue to operate in the EU with no net profit.
I've never had success selling shares of private companies as an individual. (I still have shares if you're interested)

Good luck
I think you can find good freelancers everywhere... And also bad ones. Whether upwork is good or not depends on your viewpoint. I think it is just a marketplace like everything else. I personally believe bigger value lies in longer relationships, therefore places like upwork should be just a place to get started.
I've found that taking 3-5000mg/day for the first 2-3 days I have a cold seem to make them far less severe; just a running nose instead of full on sinus closure. I don't know about shortening the duration, as colds only usually last 3-5 days.

>Regular supplementation trials have shown that vitamin C reduces the duration of colds, but this was not replicated in the few therapeutic trials that have been carried out. Nevertheless, given the consistent effect of vitamin C on the duration and severity of colds in the regular supplementation studies, and the low cost and safety, it may be worthwhile for common cold patients to test on an individual basis whether therapeutic vitamin C is beneficial for them."
A family of 4 making 60k a year that has to carefully budget all expenditures should VERY CLEARLY not be lumped together with a single dude in his 20s pulling in 200k a year at a tech job.

That guy might not have quite the fancy apartment he wants but can pretty much pay for anything else he wants (a tesla, fancy vacations, every electronic gadget he wants).

This whole thread is full of rich tech people trying to lump themselves in with people in far different economic circumstances because they are uncomfortable with the fact they they are rich.

It's gross.

It's really odd that you don't factor cost of living into your calculator especially since it's used in every other determination of wealth. If I make $250K US in India for example you're generally way better off than $250k US in the Bay area. The ability to move is arbitrage which a lot of people don't have.

Don't get me wrong I actually mostly agree with your point, I say that as a guy literally dying of cancer, but lucky enough to be in the best place in the world to have a chance. It's just that cost of living should factor into any estimation of class status. If you throw that out literally every American has a moral failing, even those living below the poverty line, which isn't a sensible way to look at it. Class needs to be defined as the purchasing power relative to the area that the person is in. Taxation status/rates doesn't need to take that into account.

I think just because they're afraid of breaking things? I'm honestly not sure what the rationale was for not implementing this. They do DNS pinning which helps mitigate DNS rebinding attacks, but I don't think they do anything specifically to restrict access to internally routable IPs.

They do block certain ports that are known to be problematic (25, 6667, 5222, etc)

I switched to Ecosia about a month ago. IMHO search result quality is at about 90 % to 95 % compared to Google. I believe Ecosia is using Bing in the background. They are planting trees and claim to respect my privacy. Overall I'm happy with Ecosia and started recommending it to friends.

Here's my hot take (with 2 years of running a #1 trending shopify app + multiple attempt in starting a store)

Shopify DOES NOT help you sell. Period.

Amazon will win in the long run because at the end of the day it's all about if the "platform" can move merchandize or not. Amazon captures top of the funnel all the way down to personalized targeting.

Shopify will never do that. they are just the tool to help you figure out all that yourself. Outsiders / beginners looking in would say Shopify is amazing because the ecosystem and how many "tools" there are to help you sell. but it's all load of horsesh*t. The merchant ultimately is the one responsible to run the ad campaigns, find the customers, run promotional pricing on BFCM.
Cloud-Native Apps Force Developers to Put Security First
I used ecosia for a period of few months, and stopped when I read this their privacy policy(https://info.ecosia.org/privacy#privacy-policy-section-7):

> For example, when you do a search on Ecosia we forward the following information to our partner, Bing: IP address, user agent string, search term, and some settings like your country and language setting.

So when a search is done, our IP address is send to Bing.

I really love the idea of planting trees from profit, and have nothing against ecosia. Just commented to inform readers.
<edit>
Before getting downvoted into oblivion, I would like to make it clear that I'm not saying ecosia is unethical or that everyone should stop using it because of this. For some it matters, for some it doesn't and ecosia seems a great choice for those whom this doesn't matter. I'm just posting it so that those who do care(about their IP being send to Bing) can be aware(since I wasn't for a few months).

The entire field of human evolution has been pretty much entirely rewritten over the past decade or so. However, the media tends to sensationalize individual finds much more than they should be. What we're actually learning is that the reality is so much more complicated than the traditional model of humans evolving once in a particular part of Africa and eventually leaving to colonize the rest of the world.

Interesting results... so sugary drinks AND 100% fruit juices are associated with an increase in cancer risks. I guess I'm not surprised at all about the sugary drinks, but fruit juices... maybe.

Artificially sweetened beverages showed no increase.

I guess now we watch for headlines like "Soda Causes Cancer" which is not what this really says.

Not true.

That page only shows measurements for Rust and C (GCC) programs.

Enjoyed the user namespace section. Looking forward to the `mount` and `net` namespace sections and how they are used in docker.
I guess that I felt like it was speculative enough to cover a time period like that...but you're right. That part could be bad too. I just felt like it was a good narrative at that point in the book? It was entertaining. I wouldn't say that I put a whole lot of stock in popular literature.
If you separate this conversation from reality and strip any sort of relevant context, then yes, population and pollution are orthogonal concerns. What you're saying is "if human existence didn't cause externalities, then a growing population would no be an environmental problem". Preserving biodiversity is not desirable just to stroke our egos, it is actually vital for our world to continue.

If we actually talk about the real world, without unrealistic hypotheticals, and without circular arguments, then you can't possibly be right. Every extra human born pollutes and has an environmental impact. We are very far away from bringing that to zero and, unless we do, population growth is an environmental problem.
It doesn't appear that this town bet or lost anything minus some administrative time which is a fairly standard risk for any big development project.
> Vitamin A is actually worse because it is fat soluble, not water soluble like Vitamin C. If you consume too much Vitamin A, you don't pee it out, it gets stored in your fat cells. And because it stays in your system it can build up to toxic levels and you get hypervitaminosis.

However, that is only the case for the retinol form of Vitamin A, found mostly in animal sources (and in infamously toxic amounts in polar bear liver). The "Vitamin A" in carrots is actually in the form of beta-Carotene, which is technically Provitamin A – the body uses beta-Carotene as a precursor to make retinol as needed.

Fortunately, the body will never convert more beta-Carotene to retinol than needed, so you will never suffer from hypervitaminosis A from eating too many carrots. On the other hand, you might literally (and otherwise harmlessly) turn orange: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carotenosis

The thing is, although Ansible is not perfect, it is python.

Why do you think "Google employees have full access to this data?"

It seems strange that they would have permission, unless there were some reason it was necessary for the job.

This is sort of like assuming telephone company employees can listen to whatever conversations they want. Wiretaps exist, but it's not like just anyone gets to use them.

Given that French companies are also affected, I fail to see how it could be construed as a tariff. The goal of tariffs is to penalize foreign corporations. That tax is directed at a sector. It will not help the few French actors in that sector become more competitive.

Most current governmental structures are innately intwined with the economic system.
It's not how much you make, it's how you make it:

- dependency: allowances, public welfare, UI, grants, bursaries, inheritances and trust funds, scholarships etc.

- labour: paid for fungible work. (piece work, hours of labour)

- time: paid for individual time spent. (salary)

- knowledge: paid for things that can be taken and reused e.g. analysis, opinion, assessment, advice, teaching.

- performance: paid for outcome only you can deliver. e.g. litigation, sports, music, prizes, bonuses, gambling.

- risk: paid for taking/holding risk, priced-in compensation for perceived potential loss. e.g. leverage, brokerage, insurance, liquidity.

- capital: charging rents on a capital asset. e.g. real estate, dividends, loan interest, franchise fees, IP licensing.

- power: taxation, tributes, bribes, etc.

We can dress up the amounts people make and make up vanity excuses, but these are what you get compensated for, and there is definitely a hierarchy. Everyone likes to think they are middle class, but what really defines social position is how and for what you are compensated.
My understanding is that Napoleon was of average height for a peasant, but was short compared to well-fed officers.
What seems most interesting about this to me is that it's a color font instead of just key. This is first color font I've installed on my computer instead of just previewing a webfont.

Three reasons;

The first is headline hyperbole. Journalists use cliche and overstatemnts.

The second reason is "duplicate" reporting. An important find is made. First impressions are reported. Then experts give some early, off hand opinions. Measurements and such trickle in. The first papers are published. People comment on papers. Older evidence is re-examined. Other papers are published. So.. the same "revision" is reported multiple times.

Third, is yes. Human history is being re-written constantly atm. Paleo genetic evidence is adding knowledge. Dating is contantly improving. New sites are being discovered.

We have recently gotten strong evidence for the existence of 3-4 new named archaics, contemporary to sapiens: denisova, naledi, luzonensis & floriensis. Some of these are very subject to "reason 2."

But basically, yes. Evidence is mounting fast and theories are adapting fast too. Human paleontology is killing it!

Excess vitamin C breaks down L-tyrosine, which could contribute to thyroid and/or neurological issues in individuals with L-tyrosine deficiency (L-tyrosine is a precursor to thyroid hormone and L-dopa which is the primary building block of dopamine).

Agreed, 100 is too big and yes, I completely understand the need to tightly select the people that are gonna come in, even more so if the group is smaller, but maybe the process could be a little more organic, or informal?

Maybe having some kind of intermediate level of membership/trust for the new comers? A little bit like motorcycle clubs, who have "friends of the club", "prospect" etc, not the best example but I hope you get the idea, which is to develop those relationship over a longer period of time than a simple application with a yes/no answer at the end like with a job application.

I would have guessed artificial sweeteners would have had more cancerous effects than "natural" sugars, but I guess that's just a logical fallicy where I assume lab synthesized chemicals are automatically worse for your body than plant synthesized chemicals.
I think we agree, but I appreciate that my wording wasn't perfectly clear.

"pare down to its essence" was a bad way of saying "disregard intersecting issues and focus on one logically resolvable issue." Your soundproofed room analogy is apt.

I also agree with applying pure logic to a scoped problem being not only possible but desirable... but I'd argue that properly scoped problems are rarely as useful to solve as the scoper might think. In many cases "merely" scoping the problem in a novel way leads directly to a truly useful course of action, and is most of the hard work.

I agree completely with emotions being something we should not deny, but rather be something to /include/ when trying to solve problems. (My complaints are around emotions being placed outside or opposed to the realm of logic, where accounting for them is "illogical")

I owned a 2013 Ford Focus as well. In the nine months of ownership, the transmission was replaced twice. Every transmission worked fairly well and then after about a month would start to stutter on acceleration and acceleration would lag then accelerate quickly startling me.

I wasn't referring to his hypothesis. I was referring to how he covered some historical movements as just the received wisdom regarding them. It was like "Time-Life covers human history". There were somethings that can't be divorced from their historical context. It's the same way that people lump all of something into a generic pile...like all Islam is basically Whabism (not saying that he said that but many people do) or things like that. Like I said, I'm probably not expressing myself very well here.

You have to extend some goodwill to a company that invested millions of dollars and absolutely critical space in its handheld tech simply for security (I'm referring, of course, to the secure enclave).

Point to me any other manufacturer who has gone to those lengths to protect their users. There was no reason for Apple to develop that tech. No one else in that space, but they developed it anyway.

Can they do all this stuff? Sure, but I don't think they will. It does not seem to be in their interest.
