I was billed about that much, also in "Europe", when an ambulance was called, no treatment was performed on me, and I wasn't even transported by the ambulance. This was in Switzerland despite having health insurance. There's no general European health insurance system.

It's easier when your problem space has been relatively identified for the past 20 years or so. Quite a different conundrum for e.g. Python or the (in)famous Js situation-s (coughTs)

I tend to have respect and admire historical 'niches' like COBOL systems when they speak of such amazingly sustainable designs, resilience that outlive human careers, lives even — like big old trees. There's something noble about working these, me thinks. How will it feel to interact with a centennial system come 2100-ish? I'd wager mind-numbingly tedious and a privilege all at once. (unless we've solved "legacy" by then, who's with me? ok, Go :=)

Without sounding too sacrilegious, Dr. Stallman is the Free Software Jesus--he preaches the gospel of Free Software to the whole world and associates with "sinners" calling them to repentance. If he can bring "the truth" of Free Software to Microsoft employees and help them "see the light", why wouldn't he?

He certainly looks the part of Free Software prophet when dressed as Saint Ignuicius: https://stallman.org/saint.html

I suggest you to go for a more stable UI (React changes too much, IMHO) and a backend that you own.

And I'd like to stress out the Infrastructure as Code as much as possible, so you can always keep track of WHERE and HOW runs WHAT.

That is, they forcing thid disfeature on me, and their impertinent reaction when I rejected their bullshit justification (essentially they calling me rude and therefore refusing any further conversation because I pointed out that "many customers like this feature" is not a reason to force it and the risk that comes with it on customers who don't like it).
China will be done only if the international community put their money where their mouths are. Trade sanctions to counter military action would have monumental impact on labor in China which could undermine the CCP.

But I don’t think the international community, i.e. globalists, have the stomach for that and will not meaningfully sanction trade. They may impose some token sanctions but that’s it. Because of that HK rather than China will be done if the CCP decide to go in and do their pacification thing.

At that point they’ll have to bring re-education camps to the south to tamp down on dissidents and lingering discontents

> But the growth — and yet another round of VC funding — put even more pressure on Etsy. Chief technology officer Chad Dickerson had taken over as CEO after Kalin was voted out by the board in July 2011, and in October 2013, in an infamous town hall meeting at Etsy HQ, he announced that the company would allow sellers to contract with outside manufacturers to help make their products, so long as they designed everything themselves and were willing to provide detailed explanations of their process to Etsy’s Marketplace Integrity team.

Much of the community was aghast, fearing the change would ruin the culture of the site forever.
Yes that is a common problem. I could see GitHub creating tools to help you select a license and inform you how to use it properly, as well as having systems that show you how the license affects your project.
Much like Taiwan, PRC cannot simply smash the place up and say "obey us or else." That would hurt themselves in a very direct economic sense, as HK and TW both are important markets to the PRC. What we're seeing happening before our eyes is Tiananmen Square anno 2019: false flag violence from protestors, planted evidence, planted counter-protestors. The PRC is trying to sell the narrative that the protestors are wrong, it is the only way the protests will be quelled without literally killing them all.

My wife and I have been slowly buying furniture for our house, and Etsy is our go-to. I don't know where else I can search for such a wide array of styles for things like desks and coffee tables, find exactly the style I want, and THEN get it custom-made to the dimensions I want. I really like the way it opens up smaller shops like that for higher-end purchases like furniture, and I've never had a bad experience despite buying items in the 4-digit range.

That being said, complete dumpster fire on the lower-priced items like this article is getting at. I really enjoy Etsy when it can deliver on its promise of opening up a marketplace of skilled artisans who otherwise would've have had a hard time getting started. Hope it can get back to that.
Guessing they need ammo which has been cleared for spaceflight, as you want the ammo go up, potentially stay there for extensive amounts of time, come back down, and still be in working order.
It will be a while. Cars typically last for a bit over 10 years. Thus even if new cars were 100% electric today it would barely show up on anyone gas station bottom line this quarter. Next year it would show up of course, nobody would close but every CEO would mention it in their message to shareholders (along with their plans whatever they might be to deal with it). In 3 years the weakest stations will start closing, but this will be a positive for each on that remains. In 10 years you will need to search for pumps but there will still be enough to drive all major routes in a gas car without range anxiety. In 15 years there will start to be problems, but you will be able to get personal deliveries of fuel (farmers already do this for tractors) and pack a few full gas cans if you need it.

The above assumes 100% electric. However I think electric will hit a plateau at around 90%. For that last 10 % (might be 5) the power to weight advantage of liquid fuel is important enough to keep a few trucks on the road (not cars or SUVs, but perhaps buses and motor homes). While it is possible to make a truck work on electric, many of them are already weight constrained, (because roads and bridges cannot handle anything heavier) or license constrained (without a CDL you can only haul so much), either way less weight in the fuel system translates into more weight they can haul. There is a lot of energy in 100 gallons (400 liters) of diesel fuel, and big trucks and equipment will burn that much fuel in a day. So long as liquid fuel (
including biodiesel) is available some applications will be willing to pay a premium to get it.

My experience agrees with this.

I'm a huge fan of Docker, I've actively taken part since the early days, attending meetups and using it actively day to day.

Unfortunately, when I brought several issues to GitHub, or +1'd other people's issues that were affecting the usability within our company, the attitude was very much "f* you and your problems" because Docker want things to be one way and that's how it'll be.

There were issues raised 4+ years ago and are still open, for solutions to problems that would have mooted a need for us to use something like K8s (which doesn't work anyway for our requirements).

I believe Docker locking the community out of valuable features had also done harm and (possibly) failed to be the monitiser they'd hoped for.

After so long, I no longer go to Docker to solve problems that could be solved in Docker (secrets anyone? without the "hacks"), and just look towards the other tools solving the problems.

I'll continue to use Docker, but I don't consider it a friend.

Yes, obviously, of course Apple's app is more seamless as a result. That is entirely the point. They are only able to beat other developers in this area because they don't let developers even compete with them. Saying their app is better, so it's all okay, misses the point that other developers never have the opportunity to show if they could equal or surpass what Apple does. It's like if Ford went to every other car manufacturer and sabotaged their brakes. Sure, Ford's cars are better! They can brake! Who wouldn't choose that over a car that can't stop? But it's not competition.

I don't blame them, given how Boeing had previously tampered with crash evidence[0].

From the article on the investigation of the crash of Flight 585:

>Walz, of Parker Bertea, was assigned to hand-carry the servo valve to Irvine. John Calvin, the quality-control engineer from Boeing, instructed an assistant to pack up the parts. According to court records, the assistant left the room and returned with a taped package, which he handed to Walz, who carried it on a flight to Southern California.

>When Walz opened the package that afternoon at the Parker Bertea plant, he discovered that three servo-valve parts were missing: a spring, spring guide and end cap.

>Boeing, citing ongoing litigation, has never explained why those three parts were left out of the package forwarded to Irvine.

It wouldn't be that personal vehicle ownership would be banned, it would just be drastically reduced. In its place there'd be far better public transportation options, maybe better fractional car usage options, bicycles rideshares, etc.

Many people would still need cars, but instead of every family needing two cars, many could just have one. Then even for the people with cars, they might not drive as many miles on average with the new options open to them.

Obviously it would be easier to reduce car ownership in denser areas so that's where the bulk of the shift would happen.

Ask HN: Securing third-party API keys within frontend in 2019
Hi all,

I've only been working with frontend for a few months and one thing that has me stumped is handling third-party secrets required by the app, e.g. access-tokens or API keys required for interaction with MapBox [0] or Sentry [1]. I'm only referring to client-side JS, where to my understanding any bundled secret is effectively compromised, as opposed to server-side rendered websites

While the most secure solution I've come across seems to be about having the frontend communicate with these services via a proxy, e.g., Nginx proxying requests to those services after validating the JWT token Auth0 [2] issues to the frontend client, this solution seems to be poorly supported. For example only Nginx Plus appears to support JWT validation.

Thus I'm truly curious, how do you secure your third-party secrets needed by your frontend in 2019?
