We buy super cheap TVs for our meeting rooms, and then just never connect them to the internet. They have Netflix etc on them, but none of it works. We then just use HDMI or Chromecasts that are provisioned on the company GSuite account.
How would you think anyone should call a graph query language done by the SQL committee?
Looks like a pun.
It's much more complicated than just having a foreign income exclusion and being out of the country.

If your income is above $100k, you also have to fill out the AMT worksheet, which may result in you needing to calculate everything to deduct the foreign taxes you've paid.

If you have US stocks and sell them, you have to worry about paying capital gains taxes to the US (they consider this US income, regardless of if you received the stocks as part of your employment), and you generally have to pay taxes to the country you're living in for that as well. If you're lucky you might be able to deduct the US taxes or expected taxes, otherwise you might not be able to do so or might not be able to do so until the next year.

You also have to report your overseas accounts every year.

When I first moved overseas, yes, it was pretty simple to just fill out my 1040 and my form 2555. Last year I needed those plus the 1040 Schedule B and form 1116. Next year things will get even more complicated since this year I bought an apartment, so there's a mixture of rent deduction and mortgage deductions, plus a significant capital gains tax burden due to selling stocks for my down-payment on the apartment.
Sorry for nitpicking: "emperor's cut"
Isn't it ambiguous? I would translate "withdraw from territories" and "withdraw from the territories" the same way (edit: so does Google Translate). It's a failure by the translator who should have worded it "retrait...de tous les territoires" or "retrait...de certaines territoires" (withdrawal from all, or some of the territories) as appropriate.

It's clear in the context of a good-faith negotiation that Israel wasn't being given the option to withdraw from one square metre and keep the rest. But the language gives some plausible deniability to their supporters.
Oh, absolutely - but I think Derek's point in the article is that many critics of "Big Bad Pharma" who see the profitable drugs making it to market are unaware of the expensive failures that never make it that far.
I have to say that I find the attitude I quoted below from the link, ever more prevalent in today's political and social climate, to be extremely dangerous in how one-sided it is.For one thing, competition is a cornerstone of better development. Yes, it sometimes needs to be moderated but as a basic rule of anything economic, it works at delivering more and better options and keeping exploitative tendencies in check. This applies to the regulatory frameworks of countries just as much as to any other economic actor and the just as many of us would probably agree that it's a bad idea for every company in X industry to collude on fixing prices, the notion of stamping out competitive tax regimes among nation states should be looked at with the same suspicion and for the same reasons of curtailing abuse against those who have to pay for everything.

Secondly, at what point does it allow for the question of just how much government should be allowed to spend? The entire onus should not simply be placed on crushing tax avoidance, and a serious debate about the size, scope and sheer spending done by governments today needs to balance things out. This isn't an argument against social programs or helping the poor it's just a recognition of the basic fact that a tremendous amount of money extracted by states gets wasted on all sorts of immense bloat. We complain about bureaucratic mismanagement by various countries all the time but for some reason should applaud their obsessive efforts to crush any exit valves on abusive tax practices by them, and not just tax avoiders or evaders?

With the support of the G20 and the EU, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) therefore drew up international standards in 2014 to enable countries to exchange bank information automatically. More than a hundred countries have so far decided to adhere to these standards, almost half of which have already started to exchange information in 2017. Participating countries must undertake to treat the data they receive confidentially and only for tax purposes.

These rules also aim to create a level playing field for all financial centres by putting an end to tax havens. Countries - or territories - that do not meet the criteria set out in international standards or that are not cooperative are included in grey or black lists of the OECD and the EU. “Defensive measures", in other words sanctions, are envisaged against them.
Why not just concede that you were wrong? Even if, yes, the author could have made it a bit more difficult for you to be wrong?
Title should be changed to global heating.
'System bash' isn't a universal or clear concept. For example, if you're using Modern OS X, you likely have bash via brew or some other userspace package manager but no system bash. Presumably you (or at least, most people) would still like your scripts to run in this case.
> People seem to generally have very positive comments on DataDog - maybe it's me but I've generally found it frustrating.

We hadn't used DataDog, but after our whole team kept getting endless semi personalised buddy buddy like spam from their sales people, we all swore off ever even contemplating using them.
I guess it would be a watermark style change through all the video frames which affects the hashes - e.g. brightness or contrast or sharpness or some combination of that kind of thing - then seed that on torrent sites, and advertisers get to see which TVs watched the torrented film vs the official film.

I’m very interested in the plan as it’s written. The main reason I wouldn’t switch to this from T-Mobile is that I honestly never know when Google will decide to just say, “welp, we got bored with this, so we’re taking our ball and going home - good luck switching back!” Aside from GMail getting slower and the search results containing more ads, I don’t feel like you can really count on Google to stick with anything.
I fear that battle is already lost on this one, but I'm disappointed to see FRP making it into the officially supported workflow on mobile.

I think FRP has a place, and React has been a transformative technology for web, but in that case you generally don't even have to think about the rx primitives at all if you don't want to.

As far as RX as it's penetrated mobile development in the past few years, the result I have seen is that many projects have become unreadable tangles of reactive chains, where the stack trace is no longer useful, because of the unfounded assumption that "more reactive" means better code.

The iOS APIs are certainly showing their age, and there's a lot of warts related to their Objective-C pedigree, but I think they have always had a strength in terms of being fairly agnostic about how they are integrated into your program's structure. I really fear that sense will be lost if third party libraries adopt combine as the dominant interface paradigm.
Kind of off topic, but I have an older Samsung smart tv. It has an ethernet connection, but it didn't have any option for WiFi. For a few years I had it wired up to ethernet, and after rearranging where my router lived in the house I didn't have a long enough ethernet cable, so I hooked up a USB WiFi dongle. It worked great for a few months until I needed that dongle to connect a Raspberry Pi to WiFi, so I stole it from the TV...and lo and behold the TV still had internet access via WiFi! The only thing that I think could have happened is that the TV had WiFi hardware but was disabled in software, because at the time a WiFi TV was selling at a premium and this was a cheapo one I bought from Wal-Mart. So I guess hooking up the USB dongle somehow unlocked it. It kinda freaked me out that there was hidden WiFi hardware in there.

edit

The tv definitely phones home too, my Pi Hole blocks a few hundred attempts to lookup log-ingestion.samsungacr.com, xpu.samsungelectronics.com and upu.samsungelectronics.com per day.
WiFi has limited range, so some people have control over what local networks exist.
> what's not reasonable about working remotely?

security.

You are going around with company secret data.

You are moving them outside of the company network, which is heavily controlled.

Not all businesses thinks it's ok to put data on Amazon S3.

Don't get me wrong, I agree with you, but they have their reason, the most important of them is "things have worked until now because we do the things as we do them, what if we change and things don't work anymore"?

Fear of change is a real thing in big established businesses.

> How The Economic Machine Works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHe0bXAIuk0

First sentence “The economy works like a simple machine, but many people don't understand it − or they don't agree on how it works − and this has led to a lot of needless economic suffering”.

Seriously?
> It kind of feels wrong when dynamically typed languages add "hinting".

Python doesn't have just hinting, it has an optional static typechecker.

Anyhow, I don't see it's weirder than static languages adding the option to use “dynamic” as a pseudotype to opt out of static typing on a case by case basis.

Languages are more than typing regimes, and language designers can believe that there is no one typing regime that is right for all use cases.

> C++ cribbed designated initializers from C

AFAIU C++ will require that you initialize the members in the same order as defined. It also won't permit you to exclude any definitions. Why even bother?

Somewhat controversially, C permits you to define members multiple times, with the last definition taking precedence. Compilers sometimes warn about this, but I've personally found the behavior useful--I'll write an API that provides a macro with default values yet which allows the user to override any particular definition. I don't think I've ever had a bug in an initialization, at least not involving multiple definitions. That seems like a very easy and superficially useful diagnostic to write, but which prevents useful behaviors; behaviors that named initializer's were deliberately designed to provide.
> The Internet (and online ads) has just made it easier to dig deeper.

Also easier to make sensational headlines, easier to issue silent retractions, easier to make shadows edits to already published stories, easier to copy minutes old news in a journalistic game of telephone, etc.
I wouldn't say larger, just different. You can try to achieve data integration by forcing everybody to agree on an ontology. You can also just build your own graph data model and when the time for integration comes, see how far you can go with views or even ETL. This is what the db industry has done successfully for many years. There's a lot of scenarios that are sufficiently addressed by a closed world assumption without having to buy into the complexity of RDF just so you might be able to play in the semantic web one day.
There is no such thing as a "free market". Markets are inherently unfree. Money-exchange-based economic systems do not form without significant centralization of power. Also, and regardless - once such an exchange-based economy ("market") forms, wealth in general and capital in particular tends to get concentrated, and the market manipulated and slanted even relative to its own internal ideology.

So, a "free market" of health care would just be a reshuffling of the oligarchic arrangements.
In the sense of movies and stardom lasting long after death, sometimes increased, it's a more certain way to an afterlife than any religion. I see it in much simpler terms - wanting to leave a mark.

Afterlife is after all, nothing more than being remembered by those who are still around. The ancient Egyptian pharaohs, particularly Tutankhamen achieved it well. Just not as they imagined it all those years ago.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

The evidence in this case is very weak. Someone saw something.

"must include technology that is far more advanced than anything we have"

Unless we get actual pieces of that "advanced technology", the most probable explanation is that the people got confused. The same way we all get confused about million other things; like miracles witnessed by thousands of people or cops chasing UFO that turned out to be Venus.

I will repeat - Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
Wouldn't the other twin be n=1 as well?
Many people are missing this point. US banks, until this point, do not exchange information on their foreign customers. FATCA is more like: Hey Hong Kong, Swiss, London, nice business you have over there, maybe I can get in the action too. All of the action actually.
Again, opioids should be used for end of life treatment, but opioids are a poor choice for many people with long term pain.

Opioids do not work for many people living with long term pain.

Those people deserve treatment for their pain that is effective. For many of them opioids are a bad choice.
If this really NEEDS to be a client-side-only solution, I still believe a worker is the only way to go. Only, in this case, it needs to behave like an API. So your worker not only parses the JSON, but also responds to post messages with only the data that is requested from it.

Why? Because a large JSON structure is most probably just a large JSON structure, but you most probably don't need it as a whole. You may need a total count of items, you may need a paginated set of items, or only a certain item or a set of fields of items — well, an API.
There are situations where you do not want to parse the JSON, but do want to ensure that the JSON is not going to cause a problem. Such as a gateway. It would be a PITA for the gateway to have to know all JSON schema of all services it is protecting. There are XML validators that that perform similar functions.

The problem would be how you guarantee the release of the keys at a time in the future.

If it was possible to create a "time-locked" blockchain vault would be interesting.

I can't see any way of doing that which wouldn't boil down to taking bets on the speed of advances in computing, though. But that might be good enough if the goal is just to ensure it takes "long enough" rather than guarantee a specific amount of time has passed.

There wouldn't be a place for individuals to infringe copyright without the DMCA. Any platform would be exposed to full liability for all their users' posts. So be careful what you wish for.

Here's an old critique, but based on everything I've ever read from or about Zed Shaw, I trust that it's still valid: http://hentenaar.com/dont-learn-c-the-wrong-way
I use a odroid c2 with a usb harddrive for my media with libreelec, then I have a playstation to use for amazon / netflix video.
Just a quick correction. The book is 'Debt : the First 5,000 years' by DAVID Graeber.
Wait what, Learn C the Hard Way doesn't teach malloc? Programming without dynamic memory allocation is pretty restrictive. What "data structures" does it even teach if it doesn't cover malloc?
You can't. Independent opinion doesn't exist - you would have to validate every datum you're presented with starting from first principles, which is impossible.

Accept that most of your opinions will be informed by the opinions of others, likely directly, and your method for judging truth will instinctively be biased more towards emotion, social status and ego-preservation than than logic and fact, because humans are social animals and that's just how we're wired.
FWIW in your second example i was able to understand the Cypher query without so much as a double take and i still don't quite get the SPARQL query.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

If there is even slight doubt about credibility of a claim of extraterrestrial technology, then there is no extraordinary evidence.

Again, extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Don't waste people time.
There are people who prefer seasonal work. Maybe Xmas and summer gigs with rest of year off. Read the book Nomadland for details.
Citizenship is a very strange concept to me. The fact of a person being born in a specific geographic location giving the surrounding nation-state the right to claim some sort of perpetual jurisdiction over that person to the exclusion of all other nation-states seems, upon reflection, quite bizarre.
I wouldn't be that hard to make a small firewall to put in between the TV and the Internet, with rules that block unwanted traffic - or better, block it and inject fake data - while allowing normal use of the TV.

This cheap SBC comes to mind, there's a very similar one from OrangePI too.

The article doesn't explain why. The word "why" is only in the title.

Not saying there is any problem with an American sounding American in any book. The problem is specifically with the other, non-American characters and their change in tone sounding unreal in the context of a Britain that has adopted many of those US empty corporate cliches, along with a few of our own.

Like I already said, I got no problem with Brits using Americanisms - we all do that.

Without going away to reskim it for quotes, which I'm not going to do, I think we have to agree to differ. :p

Do you a right to paid sick leave?

I mean, by the law?

No, you don't, it is worse.

Do you have the right to holidays?

I mean, by the law?

No, you don't, it's worse.

Do you have the right to a proper maternity leave?

I mean, by the law?

Almost, but not really.

WHO reccommends at least 16 weeks, you have 12.

In Italy we have - mandatory, 100% salary - 2 months before childbirth, and 3 months after.

But it could be extended if the doctors say so.

If the mother want, and doctors agree, she can take less time and that time can be used by the father.

This is by the law, nationwide.

Doctors BTW are free and prepaid by taxes, so any woman has free support before, during and after the delivery.

Even if she has no money.

So yes, USA is worse.
>repetition is important

But so are the spaces between the repetitions. Would probably be more sensible to do 5 or 10 a day, for an extended number of days, than 50 all at once.
Also let's be honest, how many engineers actually learn the more advanced math. Most of them cram it into their brain for the test and then promptly forget it.

Teams with large workloads tend to automate their administration workload with tools like Terraform and CloudFormation.

So a largely read-only view of my resources, properly designed by good UI designers is something I'd pay for, but being a startup, I couldn't pay too much, probably no more than $50/mo.

Auburn, Indiana has been offering municipal internet since 2005[1]. The town needed fast internet to keep companies from leaving to big cities. So, the town decided to build on its municipal public utilities to proide also fast internet. Naturally, it ran into resistence from Verizon. But when the town council has asked the company to provide fast internet service to the community, the company said it was too expensive to do that. I remember that because I attended the town council meetings on this issue.
