It would be far more concerning to me if Cloudflare used this moment to express a business opinion on gun control rather than a freedom of speech/association argument to permit them to cease doing business with a group they revile.

Do I need to know Cloudflare’s opinion on gun control, religion, abortion, or any number of other irrelevant topics? Nope. Do I appreciate that they terminated 8chan? 95% yes and 5% reluctant yes. In conjunction with that, so I want to know their policy stance on freedom of content on their platform? 100% yes.
There's a lot more landmass in Europe than Scandinavia and Mediterranean, and it was all once covered in deep forests. Even many Mediterranean countries used to have thick forests. Montenegro (meaning black mountains) got its name because of dark pine forests covering all the mountains. Those forests were for centuries cut down by Venetians who ruled the Adriatic shore, and then rains washed away all the soil - and now Montenegro is anything but black, all you see is the whiteness of rocks (deeper in land they still have a lot of beautiful nature and forests preserved, thanks mainly to the fact that it was hard to reach terrain).
Binance just listed Contentos: A protocol sweeping image and video content
0-1000 users in 3 months, 1000-2000 users in 29 days
We just crossed another milestone last week. Now https://reetro.io has more then 2000 users and 613 companies.

First 1000 users were acquired in 3 months. But July have been explosive for us, and we received around 1100 users in July only.

Now Reetro is being used by teams at many big companies.

And the good thing, We are getting really good feedback from them.
It's not unchecked- they are free to move to a different service. Why should Cloudflare be forced to keep all customers no matter what? That infringes on their rights as a private business to run their business as they see fit. There is no "freedom of platform" where your right to a platform is being infringed. You have no right to a platform.
Yes, and they get rich by exporting those goods.. to West, among others... same thing as poachers in Africa don't sell ivory to Africans, they sell it to the West and Asia...

Cars are more dangerous than US police officers, by a wide margin.

Cars kill 30,000 people per year, or about 1 in 10,000 US citizens.

Police stop about 20 million people a year, kill about 1000 in total and less than 100 wrongly (ie, when they’re unarmed and non-violent). That’s 1 in 20,000 for deaths total, and 1 in 200,000 (or better) for wrongful deaths.

So as a US citizen, cops are twice as safe (once you’ve been stopped!) as cars are — and twenty times as safe as cars, if you’re not in the habit of drawing a weapon when confronted by police. Total exposure, rather than just once you’ve been stopped, is an order of magnitude safer.

"This stuff happens in the US because the easy access to guns allows murderers to act like this. It does not matter whether 8chan falls now or whether it survives or whether the US limits their extreme stance on free speech as long the US society continues to accept that those massacres happen in favor of having guns available to everyone."

We will never surrender our weapons. Sure some may, but a good majority of us will not. We had a European government here once, but it became oppressive, so we booted them out. We did so because we had weapons to do so. We have the 2nd Amendment because we want the government to fear the population, not the other way around. Unless you want the U.S. to look like Alepo, it's just best to not go there.

Gun's are not the problem either. The problem is people, and total lack of respect. Everyone wants to force everyone in the country to love everyone, which is nice, sure. But how can you accomplish that when you can't even respect your neighbor.

If the former, I recommend having a look at GitHub's open source guide (https://opensource.guide/how-to-contribute/) and then finding a project to start contributing too. The best is something you already use yourself and is in need in help, otherwise, I made a resource that you can use to find a good project to contribute to: https://www.sourcesort.com.

If you're looking to give money, you could try taking a look at OpenCollective[1] or GitHub's new sponsors tool[2].

Flying is only cheaper if you get lucky. For example, you can pay €40 for a 3 hour international flight and then have to pay €300 for a 1 hour intranational flight. And it's not very predictable.

As for convenience, if you fly budget, there's always baggage restrictions and you always have to waste 2 plus hours at the airport.
In some parts of Europe water and electricity are considered rights, and you cannot cut off service to a home under normal circumstances.

Define "issued". M1 is typically checking accounts and cash. M2 is stocks and things that are easily convertible into money. The rest of the M's are defined similarly, but the exact definitions vary from person to person.

M1 is always an estimate for every country on earth because you can't just take a snapshot of every bank's ledger all at the same moment and expect all the money to be there. You lack the necessary time granularity and there's a lot of gray areas like money mid-transfer between banks (missing from one, not yet written in the other), money in a van on its way to being destroyed, money in a van from the mint to a bank, bankruptcy proceedings, etc. To work around that, central banks ask retail and commercial banks to provide monthly balance sheets to prove they are stable, and base estimates off that. The IMF/World Bank do something similar with central banks that are members.

The good news is that you can find M1 estimates easily from relatively authoritative sources[0] that are good about citing their sources.

This makes no sense. The people of Michigan don't get to unilaterally veto Federal laws. Federal laws are set at the federal level and as a result are dependent on the will of the entire country, even if the impact is only on a certain part of the country.

When the US President declares a federal emergency in a certain part of the country that part does not get veto rights over the decision.

Now, I don't know if the actual revocation of the law in question was done legally, (although further down some 'constitutional expert' says it's completely legal and no one appears to be claiming otherwise) but assuming it was, this is nothing like a coup and is in fact the cornerstone of a federal democracy where certain powers are provided to the federal government, which are based on the will of the entire country rather than just a state or province.
These scums don't deserve water let alone internet access.

I don't understand this free speach absolutism. If we can't agree that encouraging people to commit killings should not be allowed then what the fuck
> they don't have the right to print money the way a central bank does

Yes, they do. A dollar created by JPMorgan Chase out of a loan wires exactly the same as a dollar created by the Federal Reserve out of purchasing a Treasury. (They both look exactly the same in your bank account and withdraw exactly the same as cash.)

Money supply is fascinatingly complex [1].

They will have no locally elected representatives in the local government. However they will still elect a Member of Parliament who will represent them in the Lok Sabha (the lower house of the Indian Parliament).
Freedom of speech is not without exceptions. You can't yell, "fire" in a crowded theater when there is no fire for example.

Exactly. It’s trivially easy to defend speech that we like. The difficult thing is defending the right to make speech the content of which we dislike or disagree with.
RN pain points are upgrading more than anything else. Also as a native dev I don’t understand why the JS dev ecosystem is full of disjointed tooling instead of just making the process more streamlined.

I have also developed a production flutter app for a client and am now working on a RN app for another. I like RN so much more just because I can create custom native views that use the platform toolkits. You can also share a lot of code with an SPA web app and set up a monorepo for everything pretty easily.

Flutter dev tools are incredible though and much easier to use than react native.
Oil primary use is as motor fuel for cars, trucks, planes and ships, and it's also used a a feedstock for the chemical industry. Renewables haven't been successful in either yet. This article assumes that electric cars are going to take off and replace internal combustion engines, which may not happen after all.
Except the special status of Kashmir is laid down in the Constitution of India; with the provision that any change to that effect should be mutually agreed on.

To expand; India has the concept of "Union Territories" where the some matters like law and order (and others, I'm not an expert) which are usually State matters are controlled by the Central (Federal) government;

What's been done here is the effective equivalent of taking any already well-established state (say Maharashtra) with an elected legislature and converting it into a Union Territory; thereby stripping the State of a lot of power.
Seems they can’t win then.
At what point do you draw the line though? If your intent with the second amendment is to, as it says, stop a potentially tyrannical government, then do you also have the freedom to buy hand grenades? How about shoulder mounted surface to air missiles to stop those pesky government F-16s? Some drones with Hellfire rounds? An M1-Abrahams to drive down to the corner store in case an uprising should start when you are out getting the milk?

Are your neighbours free to mine the road outside your house in case insurgents should drive up some day? How about them buying some uranium and building a small detonator in their garage? Or perhaps brewing some toxic cocktail of poison gas in the local primary school science lab?

Any of the above can be classed as a weapon to deter others, never mind the unintended consequence of accidental (or deliberate) discharging of any of them killing multiple innocent people. If you cannot purchase any of the above at a local dealership, then are you really free, when your government can outgun you at any point in time?

I consider myself 'free' when I take steps to minimise the infinitesimally small probability that something bad might happen, and I know that the steps I take will not result in an even worse 'bad thing' happening.

I got rid of my guns when we had kids. The very very tiny chance that I would need to use a gun against an intruder was outweighed by the even larger chance that one of my kids may have found my rifles and thought of them as play toys. Or the even larger chance that someone could burgle our house when we were not there and take them. I was free to choose what I wanted to do, and I still do not feel any less protected or safe in my own home, or while walking down the street, or when sending my kids to school, or when visiting a bar or attending a concert... or doing pretty much anything that a 'free' American is actually dead scared to do in their own country today.
There are many types of gun crime in the US. Background checks would help with a lot of individual murders, particularly in domestic cases where one partner has already been arrested for domestic abuse.

No, it wouldn't solve everything. But if we wait to pass a law that solves everything, we'll never pass anything.
The first point violates your explicit 'ceteris paribus' assumption. A devaluation today doesn't on its own provide information about future moves.

I don't understand your second point. Perhaps you could give a simple illustration?
I have seen _a lot_ of semester grades bumped up by 10 points. Mainly in high school.
After a day cleaning I'm now sure it's the derelict house behind mine. The elderly owner passed and their kids are fighting over ownership. It also doesn't help that the pig of a neighbor who shares the driveway uses the yard and space between the garage as a landfill. Time to call 311. Perhaps trimming the trees won't help but I have to try something.
> however cheap the competition can produce oil it will be priced

This assumes a perfectly competitive market, which is far from reality. Oil production is dominated by a cartel.

As a cartel can increase prices to maximise profitability, to a large extent, the price of oil is controlled by the price elasticity of demand.
Probably depends on whether the attacks focus on the chancellor's race or on their policy. Criticising the government's policy is absolutely vital to a democracy. Criticising someone's skin colour is not.

Though if the target is a politician, I'd expect them to prefer to err on the side of allowing it.

> Our teeth, nails and inability to easily digest raw meat and other physical properties are also a testament to the fact that we were not designed to hunt and eat meat as much as we think we do.

I don't know where you got that idea. Our teeth are pretty standard omnivorous and we have archaeological evidence of hunting long predating modern humans (we're talking >2MYA).

> Our teeth, nails and inability to easily digest raw meat

As opposed to our ease of digesting raw beans, grains and tubers, which at best we literally can't do and at worse are actively toxic unless extensively prepared?
> A rational approach to climate change consists of accounting for GHG emissions where they are and cutting them where they are

The problem here is that would require an enormous international agreement. I do not see the political will for this in the largest polluters (US, China) and corruption would be a major problem in large parts of the world.

Doing this on anything less than a global scale would lead to unintended side effects where importing from country A get cheaper because A does not tax GHG emissions, just replacing the emissions.

You could theoretically fix this at the border with tarifs, but determining how much emissions a particular product caused becomes real hard real quick.
The people of Kashmir tend to voice their opinions by gathering in large mobs and throwing rocks at security forces and sometimes at tourists. Not evacuating tourists before the announcement may have resulted in a large number of civilian casualties.
Your Jedi mind tricks will not work on me.
There is always room for mistakes if you start by building prototypes. In fact having first approximation prototypes allows one to catch mistakes in how systems and subsystems interact early and fix those at a fraction of the cost.

Note that most current Linux distributions use journald, rather than syslog. Journald has plugins for the syslog wire protocol though. Personally I prefer app names vs LOCAL4 or the other syslog facilities (UUCP is still in there) but YMMV.

Would Airbnb Have Fared Better with NativeScript Instead of React Native? (2018)
For me, after years producing software, I've set myself up to be able to say no.

I disregard urgency when it exists for urgency's sake, coming out of business despair or a gut feeling. I will gladly work for 2 - 3 months on hyper mode, giving away my mental and physical health for a feature that will actually provide business value and for which the business can make a good case for why it's needed yesterday.

Working with multiple companies on executive and / or consulting levels, I feel like a lot of business rush is done because business 'needs it now' in the hope that it will improve the bottom line because it's easier to expect a miracle than it is to take a good look at your fundamentals.

The businesses with the most solid foundation I find are the ones that rarely need to rely on speed and instead rely on quality and produced value... once in awhile, a feature idea comes up that can propel the company - especially in the face of competitors - and it needs to be done as fast so that the producer can get as much value out of it before the competition catches up. That's a good reason to expect speed.

Today's society expects hyper growth, hyper speed, hyper scale, but that is because this is what is mostly advertised and we as humans have a tendency to expect the world to work as is advertised, when in reality, there are a lot of smaller companies that don't create anxiety filled working days for their employees.
I am not sure if users care about controls being "native". Examples from desktop: Photoshop used non-native controls, and nobody cared. MS Office always had non-native looking menus. DAW (digital audio workstation) apps all look non-native.

Even worse, the correct balance depends on the project. Sometimes everything around you is well understood and set in stone; in that case it's beneficial to plan meticulously ahead. In other cases everything is in flux and nobody knows what the requirements even are; then you just have to incrementally build towards a solution with frequent refactoring. But knowing where on that spectrum you are is crucial.
Sure, but the comparison is also gas cars vs electric cars + green grid, not just electric cars + green grid vs electric cars + gas/nuclear/hydro grid.
You can probably mitigate their spread. However, as the poster does seem to want Chinese-style authoritarianism, I can only conclude they have limited experience of what that looks like in reality.

As an aside, I've defended certain versions of democratic socialism (though I'm not a fan of it) to some of my friends that are recent immigrants from China (having worked grown up there and worked in the corporate world). All of them think capitalism and Western democracy is the greatest thing since sliced bread.
The report is comparing petrol/diesel against solar/wind plus batteries specifically in the context of road transport.
On top of that, German (and I think European, code law) practice has a weighted view of human rights. If two rights come into conflict, one must prevail. For example, if somebody promotes the idea that people should start a "holy war" or go against groups of people, then nobody will be like "Oh yeah, that's their freedom of speech right there". No, this kind of behavior will be considered as violating the primary human right to life and human dignity.
cloudflare isn't in the gun business, arguably it's in the speech business. why are you disappointed that they took action over part of the problem they have control over?
>What does it mean for Lakadh to not have a legislature? Does it mean that this province cannot have elected local leaders?

India has a few 'union territories' already. They send elected representatives to the Lok Sabha (the lower house / house of representatives equivalent). The new Ladakh UT, will also do the same.

> Why are the prominent politicians under house arrest? What is their offence?

They are prominent local leaders, and the center wants to avoid them from leading civil unrest.

> Why were these two articles repealed?

Any answer to this question is broad over simplification. I'll try to give my most un-biased opinion.
- The status quo was perceived as not working in resolving Kashmir's status since the last 70+ years. It didn't improve for India, Kashmiris or Pakistan who stake claim.
- It increases the leverage India has for any future solution of Kashmir.
- It would reduce the barriers of Kashmir's integration with rest of India.

The desirability of above, depends on who you're.
Sounds pretty close to wire fraud to me.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mail_and_wire_fraud#Elements
Unfortunately they have the right to say what they will. They second they stop being just words and turn in to physical actions is when there is a problem.
What people need to have in mind is that oil, when compared with solar/wind power, acts both as a storage for energy(battery) and also the power/energy itself.

So that means, you need a battery. The price of the battery, its decay and so on, has to be taken into account in that price. Does that aforementioned price for the barrel of oil includes that? I think not.

If everybody would go electric Today, the price of a battery would go to infinity, as there is not enough supply for that demand. If the changes happens too fast, the price for the battery and it's longtime cost would be higher than oil, even with oil at $100. Which for me makes all this argumentation that oil will die useless and pointless.

And to those prophets of "Oil will disappear": Oil will still exist, but won't have a monopoly in cars, some machinery etc anymore. I believe consumers will still buy cars powered by oil as long as it is worth it.

It's an industry that generates a lot of jobs, has a huge effect on GDP and I'm very sure countries will change very gradually to electric vehicles.
Where did I claim it's the only thing needed to stop a person like that?

You gotta start somewhere. This is a nice and easy way to do that's completely within the reach of the tech community. There are no laws requiring that, just a sign of a good will.

If it were up to me, Cloudflare would block at least 30 other websites, starting with Gab. Unfortunately, it takes a shooting or two for them to realize that they have a problem with a client of theirs.
As more and more electric vehicles hit the road, the price of oil will start to compete with the price of electricity. While you're correct that in the past oil and renewable cost comparisons weren't very relevant, electrifying transportation is changing that paradigm.
