That's quite interesting, my pediatrician "kicked me out" as soon as I turned 18, by moving my file to a randomly chosen adult general practitioner, and when I came because of flu a few weeks after my birthday (I was born in January), I was told to go to "doctor XYZ" at "clinic ABC" and that my "file was no longer here". Was a tiny bit "abrupt", that doctor treated me since I was born. She was very good, is the medical chief of the whole clinic. Worse is that I automatically lost parents' insurance which is provided until age 18, but hadn't started college yet, so I was a few months without insurance. This is not USA, of course.
Exactly. And if you ever plan for applying for citizenship in the future this brief period of legal limbo might stop you from getting it.

Difference Between Product and Project Managers
Product Hunt? Medium?
Don't be afraid of building a product specification, and doing it in Markdown and auto-generating a mini-website out of it.

Just build a product specification for how the product works (which is useful documentation), not how the product will work (which is waterfall).

We're experimenting with this a little, and I'm getting into document-driven development a little: if the product spec is in markdown, why not create a pull request on it as part of your story/project planning that shows the changes that would happen as a consequence of your work. Once the story is done, you can merge the pull request, even. We're not quite there with this yet, but I'm optimistic.

Putting design assets into your repo is also acceptable, and also paying time and attention to commit messages can be really, really helpful. I love this talk, for example: https://brightonruby.com/2018/a-branch-in-time-tekin-suleyma...

How to Overcome Tutorial Hell
Settlement Scheme is a permanent residence certificate(at least the email I got from the Home Office says so) and yet no certificate can actually be obtained from the home office for this. The border agent can go on gov.uk website and check I guess?
Holding millions of EU nationals hostage is a grossly immoral way to do that. And it's not likely to be effective either.
Coffescript uses this technique: https://coffeescript.org/#switch
If only a third a third of the EU nationals applied it means they didn’t want to apply in the first place.

The whole process take about 15 minutes, especially if you have an social insurance number.
Apathy.
Correct, thanks for that note.

It seems that SoftBank wants to fund directly 38b$ and indirectly 20b$ through employees.

In the first fund SoftBank contribution seems to have been 28B$ in a total of 93$B.

It seems that SoftBank is having a hard time getting the Saudi Arabia to invest again in the new fund. In the first one they put 45B$.
Most CUVs (or urban SUVs) don't really have as much cargo space as a combi. They are based on the platform of the "regular" sibling (sedan) but with the bigger wheels and axles taking up some of the interior space. The higher driving position comes at a price.

To put it in context, a VW Golf Combi or Peugeot 308 SW have 10+% more cargo space in a package that's slightly longer and narrower than equivalent CUVs like Skoda Karoq or Peugeot 3008 (2 of the roomiest CUVs out there). Whether you find width to be a bigger problem than length when navigating depends on where you live and how you drive. But the choice combi vs. CUV mostly comes mostly to image.
If they are not sure, then surely not having a role in making or displaying the ads is a neutral one?
A tiny minority of those that fall under the settled status scheme (non-EU family members of EU citizens) may possess a physical biometric card. The overwhelming majority have no document to present.

Reducing the amount of code shouldn't be the end goal, but a way of increasing quality.

You should seek to demonstrate instead that you're making software that is more malleable, has less bugs, is easier for new hires to understand, is easy to add new features, etc.
It scales just fine if they charge enough to discourage abuse. Also, the law should frankly require them to offer proper conflict resolution if they run one of two commercially viable app stores.
I don't see how you arrived to that conclusion, all I tried to convey is that it seems people are motivatenod with cost savings but it's an availability problem, ie. the cheaper packageless product is simply not there. (If you read the whole thread you can see it's a recurring theme in the conversation).

Now, if there is a cheaper and more ecofriendly solution is available, then yes, I think the less ecofriendly version should be much more expensive as a penalty.
Actually it is a flaw in Article 50 that for some mad reasons does not cater or address - displaced nationals. I raised this issue with the EU many times in 2015 and 2016 and 2017 and .... and since, they just didn't seem to care and their current stance is that it is now on their list of something to look into.

So for you to say that the UK is holding EU residents hostage is not only unfair, but very untrue.
From https://www.gov.uk/settled-status-eu-citizens-families

"If your application is successful, a letter will be emailed to you confirming your settled or pre-settled status.
The letter you get from the Home Office which confirms your status will include a link to an online service. You can use this service to view and prove your status."
EU settlement scheme says that you need to present the document you used to obtain the residence through the settlement scheme.
I understand the PG part but I don't agree with the experienced Programmers part. I know hundreds of experienced Programmers and zero of them are using LISP. I am one of them. They are using C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, PHP, Perl, Python etc. Anything but LISP.

I won't even be surprised if LISP has a market share of less than 0.01%. Even in the US. Do you have examples of popular system built using LISP?
> The real world consequences for people affected could be not finding a place to rent, being evicted, losing a bank account or being unable to open one, being denied health services or being asked to pay for services that should be free, being denied a job, being let go, or simply being skipped over by employers. This all can happen to people who have been in the UK for decades but are unable to easily demonstrate their status. This is not hypothetical stuff, this already happens but the occurrence would jump up by an order of magnitude as the result of the course taken here.

Yup. This is setting up for Windrush fiasco all over again, just on a much larger scale.

There may well be exceptions for work placements which require you to be abroad; certainly in some some jurisdictions this would not be considered as actually living abroad. I suggest people in this situation have a close look at the rules.
That's the correct document, but I don't think your interpretation makes sense. The "settled status" scheme is already in place for EEA citizens, and this is not the "temporary transitional arrangements" being referred to in that paragraph. This section of the document is about "ending free movement," and free movement is the thing to which "temporary transitional arrangements" will apply.

This is supported by earlier statements from the former Home Secretary Said Javid: "If there's a no-deal, we won’t be able to immediately distinguish between those Europeans that were already here before March 29, and those who came after – and therefore, as a result, I wouldn’t expect employers to do anything different than they do today. There will need to be some kind of sensible transition period. I mean, these are the kinds of things I’ve been working on for months and months."
I am talking about the existing permanent resident status under EU law.

But the important point is the question I asked: have they suggested that a visa will be required to enter the country?

My understanding is that visa-free travel will continue so it should not really matter whether you can prove status.
School, doctor, home, job, taxes etc. that should leave a "paper" trail that can be looked up by officials.
But not nearly low enough to be allowed as such on a public road.
Let me get this straight, your ability to re-enter the UK to be with your family depends on a URL printed on a piece of paper?
There is no system for doing this, and I would not expect passport officials to be able to look up tax and medical records at the point of entry!
Are they owned more by google or apple than say Windows and well.. MacOS?

Maybe because they are more 'closed' in the apps you can install, but you can download and store the same files on them as a computer.

What the average user needs is a browser, and they probably do more or less the same with a phone as a computer.
>> They are using EU residents as hostage to get what they want, not sure what that might be though

I mean, clearly the government's policy of threatening the EU with a no-deal brexit is just not working, so the next stop is using EU citizens as bargaining chips(I remember saying this 3 years ago, that we will end up being used for exactly this purpose once the time comes. I don't know whether I should start packing my bags now or later, the anxiety level is just through he roof at the moment).
It's propaganda. The settlement is on land that belonged to the bedou in the first place - throwing them scraps and interpreting them taking those as "terrific relations" is just trying deflect from the question of why there are settlements by the occupying country on occupied land.
Personally I'm a fan of almost all types of edible fish, you'd think being on an island that people would be open to different types not just Salmon and Cod. And tuna if it's in a lunch baguette.
Notice how differently you've framed the two sides' complete unwillingness to budge - the EU magnanimously "offered the best they can" whilst the UK had "negotiation red-lines" they're stubbonly refusing to budge on. In reality, they're both the same thing - both sides have lines they're unwilling to cross based on their own interests and what actually stands a chance of passing. It's just that the press has spent the last few years spinning the EU negotiating position as some kind of blameless, inevitable natural law and the UK negotiating postion as a fallable human delusion.
Yes. I've been surprised how very fast it is when sharing videos between devices.
No, a URL in an emailed letter.

This is more about proving your status to employers and such. Border agents will, presumably, be able to see your status electronically through their own system.
Article 50 has many flaws and this is one of them. I am sure this will be revised through treaty change in due course, after Brexit is over. It's certainly not something to look at while it's in-progress.

The UK is very obviously attempting to bargain with the rights of UK-resident EU citizens. It is both totally fair and true to say so.
Steve (Jobs) famously, and impulsively claimed they were going to release FT as open source - so impulsive that he never even checked with their lawyers first, because it never happened due to legal/licensing issues, not because they didn't want to.
I'm in germany and I have a friend who lives here with his family, but they are still british citizens. So, from our side of the channel: Pretty much everyone in their situation has been contacted by the german government - temporary allowances of residences are prepared for this situation for everyone in their families. All they have to do after an exit is to go to their local citizens bureau in order to sign and collect the papers. After that, they are fine until a more permanent solution is found.

However, to answer your question: Coming back from abroad is a complicated thing, even from France inside the EU. Technically, after a hard brexit and without these temporary papers, they are citizens of a foreign nation and the german state has no diplomatic relationship with this state. As such, they could get detained or denied entry if they run into some kind of border control. As such, it is recommended to not leave the country while this is going on. This had tossed quite the wrench into their vacation plans.
It’s easier until you hit one of the cases where a particular value is interpreted as a different type, possibly in a very confusing context. I’ve seen that bite enough people that I end up quoting strings to avoid confusion.
If you move the goalpost enough you'll manage to argue that Tesla's products are the absolute best in a category where they are the only products.

Meanwhile a hatchback and a lift back are hardly not competing in the same market segment.
It's not my interpretation. It's is plainly written: freedom of movement ends.

Now, some people assume that this means EU citizens are immediately kicked out. That's obviously not the case, hence this "transitional period".

Yeah, this is the other unacnowledged problem. There's a lot of retired Brits in Spain that might find themselves vulnerable to retaliation if the UK starts deporting Spanish nationals.
Also, it’s gotten substantially easier for a team of 1-2 to build a polished product on a shoestring budget than it was when YC originally started.

The claims of big customers are likely mostly exaggerated—product-market fit is as difficult to achieve as ever.
Untrue - there are 1.3m UK nationals living in the EU and about 3.7m EU nationals living in the UK.

Ah, very interesting example thanks. We're back to definitions of UI and UX and the overlap between the two :-)

That example you gave, whilst obviously literally an update of the UI, I would punt as being more a UX change, actually. The reason is that the point of it is what you say - to reduce friction of the checkout flow by not forcing you to wait until you do that to change your address, but letting you do it ahead of time so that next time you check out, you're just a couple of clicks away from hitting the 'pay' button - as opposed to leaving functionality the same and just making things look nicer.

Obviously this change is physically implemented as a UI change, but my question would be did the nav bar's design, position on the screen, etc, change? No - it was a flow change implemented within the existing UI design metaphors.

What I'm more alluding to with UI changes is changing those designs and metaphors, with the hope of making the UX 'nicer' as a result. This only works if nicer UI is nicer UX. In Amazon's case that's not true, so they stick with the same server-rendered pages, buttons, navbar, form fields, etc etc that they've had forever. They make flow changes within that UI though, of course, to facilitate better UX.
I'm not sure how article after article decrying climate change or any number of other highly-politicized topics "satisfies intellectual curiosity," but I guess if we define "intellectual curiosity" to mean "let's make HN more like Reddit," then it fits.
I can’t hep but think that these seemingly numerous security flaws are a product of proprietary software development. There is the old “many eyes” idea for software bugs, but even on a standards level. Did Apple not send out an RFC? Isn’t this type of architectural level screw up exactly what you want to avoid with an RFC?

I’m glad Apple are taking the privacy issue to heart, but for every inch we’ve won in privacy, we lost an inch in openness and interoperability. Apple is perhaps one of the worst offenders when it comes to vendor lock-in.

I use almost only Apple products out of sheer laziness (and honestly inertia.) At least their war with Qualcomm and NVIDIA creates some competition in their respective markets...
One of the few benefits of the terrible school I went to was that we never received homework. The teacher's rationale was that 75% of the class wasn't going to do it, so they couldn't rely on that as a learning mechanism.

We were probably years behind other schools by the time we left, but that meant from 2:30 every day we had free reign. Obviously some kids went down the dealing/thieving route, but I learnt a lot about finding my own entertainment. I honestly think homework is the scourge of childhood, even more so than testing and exams.
Up to 2006 'scent identification' ( linking persons to objects ) was used as evidence in Dutch courts.

It turned out the test weren't done 'blind' and the practice has been abolished.
> SUV's are simply trucks for which the cargo is the family rather than a lawnmower.

In this discussion something should be pointed out: in the US there is a whole segment of SUV that is basically a truch chassis with a passenger compartment. This whole segment of car is more or less unknown outside the US. In the rest of the world the big SUV is the X5/Q7 segment, and below that there are smaller types of SUVs and crossovers. Some americans even argue that the term "SUV" should be reserved for that segment (truck SUV's) while regular "car SUV's" like an X5 are in fact crossovers. I'm from europe and think an SUV is any car similar to the X5 because using the term SUV for a segment that doesn't exist here makes no sense.

> What are the manufacturers going to do when trucks and SUV's are so popular and have a higher profit margin? Make more SUV's

I realize manufacturers can sell more expensive cars with higher margins if they sell SUV's, but as a consumer I seriously don't understand why I'd want to pay a large premium for an SUV over a good 4WD station wagon.

E.g. why would I pay a hefty premium for the Volvo XC60 (suv/crossover) over the V60XC? They aren't that different, but one is called a SUV/Crossover, and the other is a jacked up station wagon. I think the latter is actually better looking! https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a26135531/2020-volvo-v6...

This is indeed what many people say. If you sit in in an i-Pace and a model 3, you wouldn't say that they are competition for each other any more than a Ford Focus is competition to a BMW 2-series, they are similar sizes, but very different trims and technology choices. The i-Pace has many options that the 3 doesn't (HUD, matriculates headlights, etc) and the 3 has arguably better self-driving tech, and over the air updates.

Most Tesla fans only count positive things for the 3 though, and so consider the i-Pace and the model 3 direct competition.

For ex. we played cooking on my grandmothers house on a small toy kitchen where you have to use "META Tabletten" to make a fire. On my parents house we coocked with small children electric plates (10cm or less diameter). The panes where just large enough for an egg or so.

Today it is possible to buy large toy kitchen, but on no of them you really can cook. There are just no real children kitchen anymore .. to dangerous.

>>But the important point is the question I asked: have they suggested that a visa will be required to enter the country?

They haven't. They are just saying that the free movement will end, meaning that as an EU citizen you don't have the automatic right to enter the UK....but no alternative was offered. EU citizens are inelligable for all UK visas right now anyway, because they are specifically worded in such a way and would need to be changed.

>>I am talking about the existing permanent resident status under EU law.

And this might be strange to some, but you can be totally elligable for the full settled status but not for the permanent residence card(I was in this exact situation - I have lived in the UK for 8 years, but the first 4 "don't count" towards the permanent residence status because I was a student without private health insurance(which was only added as a requirement after I started my studies) - but I still got the full Settled Status because that doesn't care why you were here, only if you lived here 5 years or more).

>>My understanding is that visa-free travel will continue so it should not really matter whether you can prove status.

Which again is an issue, because it might mean that legally you don't have the right to be here at all, it's just that the border controls are letting it slide for a while until some other system is put in place. Which causes a whole set of other issues, like this time not counting towards any citizenship application(or making it impossible in the first place, since you are here "illegally"), being unable to rent a place or use the NHS.
Is more common that you think. The quota system implies that Europe/ Portugal/ Spain will pay you subsidies only if you can justify rights of use over a minimun number of hectares of pasture (calculated for your declared number of animals). Easy money. You have benefits even it you let the animals die later. Space is limited, and forests (and climate change figthing) always get in the way.
