I completely agree with this method - I’ve just opted to be put in a faux coffin filled with my body and 100lbs of explosives. That should take care of “scattering my remains”.

Seems like a definite “slam bang” finish to whatever my life amounts to.
It's all cultural though. Other people with other culture would find disrespectful that you don't dig up your dead once a year to wash them up and give them new clothes.

> -BMW and Benz plans

I am aware of their plans. But still Tesla has a significant lead as both were still sceptic in full embrace of electric until Tesla outsold them in USA. Also it takes time to master running an electric motor by Software and constantly improve along with battery. Tesla has much longer experience of running a car on electrical motors.

BMW and Benz can sale cars based on strong brand. But to make really good electrical car with a decent range will take some time.

I am pragmatist not a fan of specific brand. More competition the better it is. I will be more than happy to see a real good electric car from established brand. But I don't think BMW i8 and i3 can come close to Tesla's current line up. So is the case with Jaguar and Audi with their new luxury EV. You can't go easy with legs in two boats. So if there is a real evidence of change I will change my views.

I have recently open-sourced a new NodeJS boilerplate.

This is a small introduction video that demonstrates how the boilerplate can help you to build faster, beautiful and more documented APIs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqrCH25qjP8

The boilerplate helps you as well to organize your projects into small and reusable functional modules.

Functional modules can be added simply by cloning (or copying) them into the "modules" folder, and then install the dependencies.

I have already written some functional modules:

devtools: Helps you to achieve some basic tasks such as translating sentences, generating postman documentation of the whole project, viewing/installing dependencies graphically, configuring env variables... The source code can be found here: https://github.com/izmjs/devtools

Chat FM: A simple chat module. A Redis server can be configured to ensure the scalability. https://github.com/izmjs/chat-fm

Files manager: A simple files manager module. It uses GridFS to store the files. https://github.com/izmjs/files-fm

I am looking for developers who can help me documenting and writing more tests for the project.

Please, star and share the repository

Right, the key trick here is that Telegram is easily used as an Oracle.

Telegram has essentially agreed to tell you whether any phone number is correct, so you can just guess all the phone numbers. Never allow this unless the thing an adversary has to guess is both _completely random_ and from a _very large keyspace_ (128-bits is where you can start to feel safe). If you find you're cornered into doing this (e.g. typical email + password login) aggressively rate limit it, so the adversary has to work harder/ longer to take advantage and maybe they'll give up.

Phone numbers are neither random nor from a large key space, it's maybe 10^12 worldwide or something? Much too small.

The problem is that you and I may know the rough exchange rates for Euros, pounds, and dollars (and the fact that we can more or less treat them as equivalent at this level). But a lot of US readers won't.

I probably wouldn't have any idea if this were some other European non-Euro currency.

I'd agree with you if they didn't have Euros in the article but the headline is really just there to entice readers. And it doesn't really do that with a number that's essentially meaningless to the reader. "Germany city offers 50 zorkmids to whoever..."

So far central banks have managed to achieve almost every goal they set for themselves. Lowering interest rates caused inflation in house prices. QE caused inflation in the stock market. The economists working there aren't stupid, they have every right to pat themselves on the back. Consumer price inflation wasn't really a goal. Their monetary expansion program never involved any consumers. Therefore expecting consumer inflation is very unreasonable.

Pompeii is amazing, but Herculaneum[1] is just mind-blowing. They're maybe 30 minutes from each other, so it's possible to visit them on the same day if you start early.

While Pompeii was covered in lava, Herculaneum was a bit further away from the volcano, so it got covered in ash - and therefore it's much better preserved.

Herculaneum was kind of a beach resort for the Pompeii rich. It has luxurious villas, the shops you'd expect, and a thermal bath that you could use today and not notice is 2000 years old.

Same with the houses, and the city in general. There's something incredibly familiar in them; I always get the feeling that we haven't invented much stuff since the Romans.

Depends on what you're doing. On some websites you actually stick out (all tor exit nodes are public and easily identifiable).

Depending on how closely you stick to the recommend configuration (default window size and such) it'll at least minimize some of the tracking capability of most sites.

The best methods to prevent tracking IMO are ublock origin + decentraleyes + HTTPSeverywhere (Http is leaky) in incognito mode, periodically you should destroy the session (restart your browser).

Tor really only helps with the IP part, the rest are extensions + incognito mode.

Hangouts Chat

* Can't communicate with anyone without GSuite

* Can't talk with our customers who use GSuite on another domain.

* Can't communicated with the "old" Hangouts, so it's utterly useless.

Another failure from Google. Whatever management structure incentivizes this crap needs to be fixed, if they ever want to expand out of their current domains.

Google had a winner with Hangouts. Instead they left it to die, while they moved on to Duo, Allo, and now Hangouts Chat. Meanwhile slack stepped in and took what should have bee their market.
I wonder how that will change the political landscape, if at all. I know he was very influential in GOP politics. I wonder if he will donate his wealth back to society like Carnegie and the other great industrials did in the last century.
Yes for me this is also the case. The WIP on the Kanban is very important. Is not a question of deadlines, is more a question of doing as little as possible at the same time.
I grew up on Caspian shore. Article says shortage began in the 70s but I would say, from my observation of my father who was a fisherman, even in the 90s there was a lot of sturgeon in Caspian. We would have buckets of caviar at home being prepared for sale. The area we lived in was poor but people always had caviar on the table for breakfast. Also, the article says sturgeon doesn't need to go upstream in freshwater rivers to lay its eggs but it still does, the river Samur near us used to have sturgeon going up. Locals would catch sturgeon and would try to hold the belly hole of the pregnant fish because caviar would start dripping. Nowadays I rarely hear local fisherman catching any sturgeon with caviar, only industrial fishery companies are able to do that and sell 250 gram can of caviar for $100
> Public companies, on the other hand, apparently have a legal obligation to make as much money as possible, a feature I find despicable.

Seems like a product that wants to do to much. I'm definitely not running a startup. So my opinion is of little value. But I do think using the flexibility of Clojure is an advantage you definitely can use it this space.

Reminds me products like Hubspot. It took a while before I even could grasp what they were offering. Perhaps they want to challenge something like airtable?

using unique selling points like "Track vacations and plan burnouts." doesn't give me that much confidence. For a product that is suppose to help the softskills side of a startup, it sure has it blindspots looking at the name. Could definitely be satire, even using quotes and names from the satire show "silicon valley"

Goodluck! Hope you focus on keeping it simple, the products you want to replace already want to do too much. Don't fall into the same trap!
People use credit cards for almost everything because cashback is free money and so are 0% interest introductory period.

You act like credit cards are for the financially irresponsible, but IMO it's almost financially irresponsible to use cash. Why give up free money? Why ignore the time value of money when somebody offers you 18 months interest free?

Obviously there are significant repurcussions if you misuse them, but there are also significant benefits if you manage them well.
Wow, I would’ve thought someone with such means would live longer in today’s modern age.

Ok but the value used in the table is for a quite dirty electricity. The value used is 500gCO2/kWh when the OECD mean value in 2013 was already down to 430gCO2/kWh, and the value for my country (Switzerland) is at 24gCO2/kWh... Based on that you get completely different result based on where you leave.

I sort of agree about the confusion.

I think the proper UI fix would be to split the username (sircmpwn) from the repo name (git.sr.ht) and make them two separate links divided by a non-link " / ".

This is what github does and I feel like it's a standard people expect, similar to having the logo of a page on the top left.
Taking a closer look at this it appears that the word “burnout” is being used incorrectly:

“Estimate stories and plan iterations or go with the flow. Analyze burnout chart or obsess about cycle time.”

These sorts of charts are called “burndown” charts in my experience, not “burnout” charts.
Yes; the "extern" is potentially confusing when the definition is located in the same file below. They usually inform the reader of the code to look in some other file for the definition, and usually appear in header files.

POLICY ONE: Prevent enemies from making actual friends.

Well, duh.

POLICY THREE: Promote your favorite hate and promote groups to the detriment of anything atypical.

Sure, can't argue with that.

POLICY FOUR: Completely pollute the internet with more fake bots than can ever possibly be overcome by the few remaining human souls desperately trying to salvage anything positive out of the internet.

Wave was a perfect example of leading with technology rather than the problem to be solved. Nothing I ever saw or read about it spoke to a specific user problem. Sure, Google has problems in spades that can be solved by Wave (engaging users, crushing upstart social media companies to name two). But in terms of eliminating something costing large numbers of computer time or money, Wave brought absolutely nothing to the table.

I remember seeing the hyperventilating response to Wave by tech people at the time and wondering what they were actually experiencing. Because what I saw was yet another Google initiative that would be shut down and forgotten fairly quickly.
That's like saying that Trabant is a much cheaper alternative to Bentley. Technically it is... but not quite.

> The Agile Manifesto, like most such screeds, started out as a really good idea. The core principle was simple - you didn't really need large groups of people working on software projects to get them done.

That's not the core principle of the Agile Manifesto. In fact, nothing even vaguely like that is included in the Manifesto for Agile Software Development [0] or the Principles behind the Agile Manifesto. [1]

Now, to be fair, there is a study or set of studies which shows that, for software projects within a certain broad size range, a team size of 5-7 gets the project done fastest, and that larger teams not only take more man-hours for the same size project but more calendar days, and that study is broadly influential in setting team sizes in teams that claim to be practicing Agile or Lean development; that's not a, much less the, core principle of Agile, though, just a piece of empirical evidence that became available when Agile (at least the name, of perhaps not the actual philosophy) was becoming popular.

Agile has kind of the same problem as Marxism; the theory is, and the is quite critical in both cases, bottom up, but most of the practical implementations throw that out and are top-down.

With Marxism, this might seem like a bigger problem because it is every single implementation that claims the name has the problem, but in a sense it's a little easier to distinguish the problem in practice as being separate from Marxism itself because at least all the real world implementation point to a particular revision of the theory which contains the diversions from the original (Leninism). So at least you can point to Leninism and say it's the problem distinct from Marxism. While there are a few bottom-up Agile implementations where the teams really are self-organizing and empowered, the norm is top down
implementation of something that at least superficially resembles Scrum, without any real control of process in the team, but there is no clearly diverging theory that unifies the top-down one; they don't claim to be practicing Agile-Leninism but instead plain, vanilla Agile, though their practices are in no way grounded in the Agile Manifesto or Principles, but instead the same canned-process management approach against which Agile was a reaction. So it's a little harder to distinguish based on what the implementors say is their philosophy, though it's still possible to distinguish the substance.

Don't beat yourself up over this. When we get busy and distracted we all make simple mistakes that can be very much a pain or costly.

A couple of things I think you should do, put a fraud alert on your credit file with the credit agencies, or get something like lifelock if you don't already have it. That will alert you if anyone tries to open new accounts using your credit profile. Also make sure you watch all your credit cards and financial statements for the next 3-6 months pretty closely, raise any issues fast don't wait. You might also want to change all the passcodes/passwords/pins you use on them for just that extra little level of security.

We all make mistakes, it sucks, it is embarrassing sometimes, but you aren't alone.

An aspect of the many "trackers" on the sites, etc is that much of the tracking isn't about tracking you (the person browsing around) it's about tracking the company doing the ads.

Wrapping back around to your question: "What would happen if you didn't have that data?" The answer is that Facebook/Google/Any Given ad service could just make up numbers about how ads performed.

The attribution data gives you two hard data points:

1. How much you paid for the ads
2. How many sales/leads you received

Everything else like views, clicks, video views expanded with sound on in Guatemala, etc. are all prone to manipulation and mis-reporting.
