Can't be too hard to just mount a wheel carrier in the bed, or swinging on the rear, and just use that spot as extra storage though. I don't know a single off-roader who doesn't mod their vehicle in similar ways to make up for perceived shortcomings.

Nope, and probably ( I hope ) never will. The chances of Apple support VP9 is slim, and in case you want to point out Apple is a Founding Member of Open Media Alliance, as of today it still doesn't have Apple's Official Logo in its member page.

Compared to MC-IF, an industry forum focusing on next generation H.266 / VCC which Apple is also a Founding Member, has an official logo from Day 1.
Many new cars don't come with spare tires any more, so at least they have one.
Based on the assault weapons bans in place in states like Maryland, that’s exactly what I think.

The Maryland State Police maintains a buyers guide for helping you find an assault rifle that’s legal within the state: https://mdsp.maryland.gov/Organization/Pages/CriminalInvesti...

There are numerous great choices!
>they’re good for 1500 cycles, that’s 300k miles for a 200 mile car, 450k miles for a 300 mile car

These aren't average cars, they're delivery vehicles meant to be driving rather a lot. Just ball parking here, but 100 miles per day, 6 days a week, 50 weeks a year is 300k miles in 10 years. 8-10 years doesn't seem that off the mark given your numbers.

Doubling the price doesn't help much (inelastic). Look at countries with huge petrol taxes and they still use heaps: https://www.globalpetrolprices.com/gasoline_prices/

I'm in New Zealand, and plenty of us have serious gas guzzlers even though petrol is far more expensive than in the US. A bunch of Scandinavian countries are twice as expensive as the US.

The best definition I've heard of a startup is a business that doesn't know:

1. Who its customers are.
2. What it's selling.
3. How to make money.

Aside from being punchy in its absurdity, it also explains other good startup definitions, eg. the Lean Startup's "A startup is a temporary organization designed to search for a repeatable and scalable business model" or Paul Graham's "A startup is a business designed to grow really fast." What is it searching for? The answers to those 3 questions. Why is it temporary? Because it runs out of money if it can't find the answers to these questions. What happens when it finds them? It grows really fast.

The other thing I like about this definition is that it emphasizes that startups are meant to fill a previously-undiscovered hole in the marketplace. Is a McDonalds franchise a startup? No - it knows exactly who its customers are, what it's selling, and how to make money. Is a niche e-commerce shop a startup? No - it knows exactly who its customers are, what it's selling, and how to make money. Was Facebook a startup? Yes - it was unclear what it was selling or how to make money when they started (they had a pretty good idea that their customers would be local advertisers, though). Was YCombinator? Yes - they knew who their customers were and how to make money, but hadn't quite nailed down what they were selling. Was VMWare? Yes - they knew what they were selling and how to make money, but weren't clear who their customers would be. Are these 3 companies startups now? No - they've found the answers to all 3 questions, and now have a scalable, repeatable business model. Businesses like Stripe and AirBnB are also not startups anymore, but arguably Uber still is, because they haven't yet figured out how to consistently make money.

And it makes clear what you should be doing when founding a startup (trying to find the answers to these 3 questions), why people choose not to found startups (if you don't find these answers, you've wasted millions of dollars and years of your life), when a company graduates into a regular business (when they've found answers to these 3 questions), why startups grow so quickly (because they're entering effectively virgin business territory, they can capture the whole market without resistance once they find a business model that works), why they often seem absurd to critics (because they are), and why the rewards are so high (because the risks are too).
> If I search using Google, all I want is the results.

They also remember your searches to provide personalized results, and many people do like that.

> Anything else is clearly extraneous.

Isn't the point of a business to provide the best product or service they can (for the price they ask)? What's the point of a business that does the bare minimum? How are they supposed to compete?

In any case, the point is that it's not as clear cut to know what violates privacy and what doesn't. To tie it back to your original comment:

> The gist of these laws are all the same. Just respect ALL users' data from the start, and you shouldn't have any difficulty with compliance.

They aren't necessarily going to be the same. What is to respect all users' data? There's no concrete consensus on what violating privacy consists of. Is saving searches for personalized results consistent across personal devices violating privacy? Some will say yes, others will say no.

Also, if you err on the side of caution and avoid providing features, you're going to lose edge. It seems to me that it's very important to a business's survival to know where the borderline is.

That's why I would agree with rdlecler1 that

> a small startup needs to ensure they comply with hundreds of regulatory jurisdictions

if they want to have a chance for survival and peace of mind that they aren't even technically guilty of anything in any one jurisdiction even if in their own eyes they did everything to respect their users' data.

The internet probably wouldn't have gotten as big if it weren't for the fact that it's largely lawless. If every geographical region makes their own regulations, only big world corporations will be able to comply.
Check your numbers with current prices and zero imports or exports.

Current nuclear prices for 100% nuclear power is insane. You need both massive storage and operating at low power for long periods which drive something that’s not competitive into unreasonable territory. France got close with huge subsidies and exporting and importing a lot of power, but that’s hardly 100% nuclear that’s just pushing Europe’s Nuclear percentage up a little.
Global Climate Strike Map for Tomorrow 20th September
It doesn’t matter if we’re willing to shoulder the cost. We bear it whether or not we want to. The question is whether you want to bear the cost in the form of health and climate effects, or in the form of money.
As a Canadian I can't really justify vacationing in the PRC at the moment, given I'd like to avoid mining minerals for the rest of my life. I mean, I'm sure I'd look great when (if?) I got out.

The Next Enterprise Messaging Startup After Slack
Yes. That book has probably shaped my thinking and coding more than any of the others above (although they are also very good).
You can also earn money just by inheriting a large pile and hiring someone who manages it. Or work for someone who did that. Contributing to society at large is entirely optional for some people.

It's not a problem when someone inherits a sum that can be earned within an average person's lifetime. It's the proportions. A single person should not inherit the right over several thousand lifetimes of work output.

No, it's not better when "the state" or "society" decides as a group where this work output should be directed instead. But that's not the only alternative. When someone argues against inheritance using the "meritocracy" argument, I don't think this implies that people who would have worked for the heir's money should instead work on a project that all members of society have sanctioned.
I have a suggestion for obtaining perspective. If we could find the right kind of biologist, we might ask them to estimate how many other species went extinct by destroying their environment. How common is that? I know it happens with deer and rabbits on islands but what about more generally. I know our situation is different, but I'd still like to know and factor it in to a larger answer.
Update: it's not counterintuitive any more.
I think there's some great feedback here, for anyone at Semmle thinking about how to develop the tool further.
Wiley's eBook EULA
Totally agree. Layer caching would also be a big win when your docker images change. In the post I focus on the JavaScript workflow but it is totally feasible to skip docker, skip JavaScript and pull pre-compiled binaries (especially given that you know the target architecture). Ultimately the real benefit will show on large repositories where checkout time is minimal because of lower transfer latency.
> In my garage, however, the reserved spots have number been full, and many are empty every day. Does that make it okay to park there?

Maybe it does. If all the spots are interchangeable and have no other uses besides parking vehicles, and there was never a time that all the spots were full while your vehicle was present, I think a very good argument could be made that there was no damage to the property owner as a result of you parking there. Regardless of who technically owns the spot, the absence of damage implies that there would be no just basis for seeking restitution.

Of course, in the real world parking spots are not interchangeable (e.g., some are more conveniently located than others) and have potential uses other than parking which the presence of your vehicle would conflict with. But those concerns only apply because the parking spot is a specific physical space which can only be put to a single use at any given time.

External benefits others might derive from our actions are not something we have any inherent right to control, even if they are the result of our own labor. We only have the right to veto actions which would interfere with our own use of our property.

When it comes to physical property most of the obvious ways in which others might benefit from the property would interfere with our own use, so we get to decide whether those uses are allowed or not and seek restitution in proportion to the damage caused when our wishes are not respected. There are exceptions where others' benefit does not interfere with the owners' use or result in damages. Maybe I derive enjoyment from the mere fact that the object exists; you don't get to veto that passive enjoyment regardless of whether I pay you for it.

When the subject is unauthorized copying of patterns of bits, however, that act can never interfere with the makers' use of those same patterns of bits. The maker derives the full benefit their labor (the enjoyment of the work itself), and others can also derive that same benefit at no expense to the maker.
Why are we there?

What’s the threat, again? I forgot.
Optimizing away even more calls of memset, memcpy or memmove is the completely wrong way. gcc went down this bug and called it "optimization", now llvm did the same. Can we at least keep at least one sane working compiler? At least emit a prominent warning when "optimizing" away lib calls. This helps only artificial benchmarks and will hurt everybody.

If an assignment to const memory is illegal, treat it as error, and don't silently remove it.

Fear we'll have to blacklist clang-9 also, not just gcc-9.
My 2cents: My absolutely favorite thing about the MacBooks are the aluminium unibody. I can drop it, abuse it, put my suitcase on it and at worse the metal may bend or scratch a bit. No cracks, no wearing smooth, no discoloration.

This seems like it's a natural result of the US economy being concentrated in the finance, insurance and real estate sectors, i.e just shuffling money around rather than production.
Haskell is perfectly capable of expressing imperative algorithms and mutable state. Such algorithms are still expressed using pure functions, pure functions that return IO actions.

looks like some kind of bot that was scanning for specific file types... they all 404'd so nothing was found from what I saw.

You can block the ip in the firewall of that (assumed) bot and maybe create a complicated iptable rule blocking any bots that send a get request for xxx.filename maybe?
My experience with GitHub Actions has dramatically shifted as of last week. My first attempt at using them was catastrophic, and I decided it would never work for us. Fast forward about 2 months and everything seems to be working perfectly now. Setting up a test build for PRs on a .NET Core solution took ~10 lines of YAML, and we were in business. The ability to monitor the builds in real-time as well as link to specific line #s in each respective action log is an incredible feature. We will definitely be using this to link issues to build failures. Also, the ability to see how a build script will perform scoped to its PR means that you can review and approve not only the code aspect, but also any required changes to the build/deploy pipeline. Atomic commits across source & CI/CD is a very compelling idea.

One final aspect we started investigating was how we could completely eliminate Jenkins from our stack. We have some deeply-customized jobs that run on that box (for handling bundling of build artifacts, managing metadata for final public releases, etc). What we will likely do is write a post-build agent in .NET Core, include it within the same project repository it will be responsible for working with, and then as part of the solution build it would just get taken care of automatically. Then, we simply need to invoke one more command after our initial dotnet build to trigger the package/deployment process, all from GitHub's machines.

If anyone from the GitHub team is browsing here, I was wondering if there were any plans for caching Action state between builds. That is to say, instead of downloading & installing the .NET Core 2.2 runtime every time an action executes, it could load from some cached instance (if available). This is the only downside I see right now - Jenkins can usually turn our check builds around in about 50% the time of the GitHub Actions, but for our purposes right now we honestly don't mind it. PRs don't need to merge every 60 seconds. Once we get to release builds in GitHub Actions, I think that tune might change a little bit.
I wonder what impact it would have if everyone put a collar jingle bell on their cat.
“profits are rather fragile” != “exit scam”. I think you just don’t know what this term means. An exit scam is where an established business keeps taking orders, but stops delivering product and pockets the difference. It’s also sometimes used (especially in cryptocurrency) when someone takes all the held funds and runs off. Do you really believe Airbnb’s IPO meets either of these criteria? They’re going to keep delivering services, and I really doubt the founders are going to empty the bank accounts and run off.
This is true, but the whois isn't really a highly official source.

The central dispute is not whether CO2 causes a greenhouse effect. It's that CO2 is itself a relatively weak greenhouse gas, compared to say methane (making cow farts a valid concern), and our atmosphere is already relatively saturated. The dispute is whether increases in the amount of CO2 affect other climate systems that work together to magnify the warming, and that requires computer modelling.
I don't think they could compete in Civ market.

There are far too many AR-like specialty co's out there (DPMS Panther Arms, Rock River Arms etc). - and these have successfully filled both the consumer-grade AR, as well as govt. contracts to lesser agencies. [1,2]

Although every new technology comes with negative and unforeseen consequences, history tells us that on the whole, new technology is desirable.

Even though the photograph changed the intimacy and privacy of face to face interaction, and the electric streetlight made public spaces artificial and impersonal, these new technologies certainly did more good than harm.

We should embrace the good that will come from new technologies. I for one and looking forward to a future where my packages are delivered quickly and securely, and I'm willing to accept that as a side effect Google will have slightly better ads.
"HONG KONG—Chinese authorities have detained a FedEx Corp. pilot in the southern city of Guangzhou, elevating pressure on the express shipping giant that is already in Beijing’s crosshairs amid a U.S.-China trade war.

The pilot, a former U.S. Air Force colonel named Todd A. Hohn, was detained a week ago while waiting for a commercial flight to his home in Hong Kong after flying deliveries throughout Asia from the FedEx regional hub in Guangzhou, people familiar with the matter said.

A lawyer for the Hohn family in Niceville, Fla., confirmed that Mr. Hohn had been detained in China. He was a wing commander at the Altus Air Force Base in Oklahoma until 2017.

Reached briefly at his hotel room Thursday, Mr. Hohn identified himself to a reporter and then referred all questions to a family lawyer and discontinued the phone call. He is married and a father, the people familiar with the matter said.

When he was detained, Mr. Hohn was carrying nonmetallic pellets used in low-power replica air guns in a checked bag, the people said. Chinese authorities have alleged that Mr. Hohn was illegally transporting ammunition and have begun a criminal investigation, the people said."
I think you're missing a huge group of people.

Those who just want something for free. They easily step over/don't care about any of those barriers you've mentioned.

I've said this before as well, but listing all those problems make it sound like someone, at any cost, simply must consume some pirated content, otherwise some terrible thing would befall them.
Will a Watershed Event Turn the Tide Against Fossil Fuels?
The Trump administration's reinterpretation of the Migratory Bird Treat Act of 1918, which protects migratory birds, also doesn't help.

They interpret it to only prohibit intentionally killing protected birds. So, if you wanted to, say, drain a wetland that migratory birds depended on to build a parking lot, which would wipe out nesting grounds and lead to a lot of bird deaths--that would be fine under the Trump interpretation as long as you aren't building the parking lot to intentionally kill the birds.

This has already started having an effect. The US Fish and Wildlife Service, for instance, no longer stops loggers from cutting down trees with nests of protected birds in them, killing eggs or chicks.
Kindness a top priority in a long-term partner according to international study
Electric heating isn't terribly viable as an option in the UK. An awful lot of our winter electricity comes from fossil fuel generation especially during cold winters when demand is highest, it's expensive and inefficient to convert gas to electricity and run that through a heater instead of burning it directly, and we're too temperate a climate for heat pumps to be viable except maybe on new builds. Also, electricity supplies to rural areas aren't terribly reliable during bad winter winter so it's probably not that suitable for heating.

We're supposed to be phasing out gas for new build homes in a few years but I'm not convinced it will actually happen.

I went to Australia and spent a day hiking in the blue mountains. I remember thinking that the bird noises were so loud. Not just "huh listen to all the birds" but "it sounds like someone is pumping this in through speakers". Never heard anything like it in America.

Maybe that noise level is just normal? I've only been doing meaningful hiking for the past ~10 years. Does anyone older than I am remember birds being much louder in the past?

If they are targeting sales to a small number of large fleets, this doesn't matter. In fleet operations, the driver will never ever be allowed to change a tire. This is simply not acceptable, insurance-wise. You will dispatch a second truck to handle the delivery and also a tire repair service truck.

An electric delivery truck is probably not even in the cards for small players, where gas or diesel is a better option all around.
