Before we start piling on about whether or not its really worth 35B just keep in mind how private companies are valued. Someone paid a lot of money for a chunk of stripe so thats what its “worth”.

Personally I think stripe is close to worth - as another commenter put it - half of goldman sachs. The recent launch of loans, credit card issuing, etc are all bets or exercises that put stripe in an incredible position to build platforms for financial capabilities.
In a very brief summary, the French court here has held that the EU doctrines relating to rights exhaustion -- that a copyright holder cannot control the resale of physical goods -- also applies to digital games sold on Valve's platform. This will apparently require Valve to allow transfer and sale of games on the Steam platform.

Additionally, the court also struck various limiting terms in the Steam ToS, including a total disclaimer of liability for damage caused by betas. (I'm uncertain if this liability waiver was to apply to beta versions of games or beta versions of the Steam client.)

(Quoted from his own blog post:) "The proximate cause of his decision to sell, however, came when we heard over the weekend that starting last Friday, the Deep State’s pets at the SEC began leaking something to their clients JPMorgan, Morgan Stanley, and Goldman (and here as citizens I bet you thought we were their clients, right? lol). They leaked that they were going to Bazoomba our digital dividend. Once that started getting back to me, I realized this: Whenever I have had any question about whether the SEC would or would not do something totally outrageous in order to hurt our company to benefit their clients on Wall Street, they never let me down: they always did the evil thing. So Pettway decided it was time to eject., especially because he knows I need the ammo to go to war against the Deep State."

I think it's clear the lifecycle calculation favors the EV, but I don't think it's night and day[1]. Likely the emissions associated with the manufacture of the ICE and EV vans are similar (the batteries in the EV may even make it a little worse). But there's no doubt that the EV is a huge improvement in use, and switching a large portion of the trucks in our cities to EV would be giant win for air quality. As you say, electricity generation can continue to get greener as well, unlike gas production...

You are such a tool
Because software is largely based on intuitive understanding due to its largely creative nature.

The other side of the coin is that people are constantly reinventing the wheel, bloating the tool sets, and relearning lessons already learned because of lack of standardization.
For some this will be bad news, but for others - this they will view as good news. So mixed blessings, though for you common core users - they will see this as bad.

However - eventually services and the phone will be separate and eventually end up with phones like we did with the browser selection option thrust upon you giving you the choice, even if you choose to go with what you had originally.

Fun times ahead and in the end, I feel that the consumer will get a better deal in the end and as geeks who love to hack away at our phones - may get an easier life.
I felt like that was more about billing than limiting the scope, but you're right that there's seemingly a conflict.
Stripe has made transactions for my SaaS business so painless. I recently learned that I have customers with different currencies and it's not even something I had to consider or account for. Yeah their API is a little bit... bloated for simple needs since they're covering for many different use-cases, but their superb documentation, clean dashboard UX, and relatively low fees really make the value offering huge.

Overall I'm really not surprised at the valuation. Stripe is one of the best products/services out there.

The document doesn't say that any US citizens' data was taken. It just says that the NSA has access to those Chinese computer systems. This is not illegal.

I found ctypes.sh to be legitimately useful for managing resources in nix-shell.

E.g. flock a lock file and set CLOEXEC so that subprocesses don't hold the lock open after the shell exits.

E.g. Use memfd_create to create a temp file and write a key. Then pass /proc/$$/fd/$FD to programs that need the key as a file. When the shell exits, the file can no longer be opened.

You can do similar things with traps, but they aren't guaranteed to execute, whereas these OS primitives will always be cleaned up.
Seems like a good time to cash out. I don't know where the growth is going to come from at this point.

Major cities have recognized the negative externalities that Airbnb has on rental vacancy and land values, and are starting to add on regulations of various strength. That will drag on growth.

The company gained its valuation from days past when people were buying new condos exclusively to rent 100% of the time on Airbnb, and cities are banning that sort of behaviour.

And that's why Apple and Samsung are still using 1/2.5 (5.8mm by 4.3mm) 12MP sensors, typical of generic point and shoot cameras. Compare to lower end 'prosumer' type fourthirds cams that use a 17mmx13mm sensor and 15-18MP. That's almost 9 times the area for 25-50% more pixels.
"Expected to be" is not the same as "will only be", and that's the sort of thing that gets decided by a judge. (The existence of the additional charges language does weaken that argument a bit since if "expected to be" really was meaning that things could happen outside of those hours, then you wouldn't need to reference those MSA terms.)

IANAL, but have written more than my share of SOWs and contracts of this type. Drafters tend to always default to the position of greatest optionality for them. Hence, "expected to be".

Your example fails when $FOO is "-n", for instance. Also the g modifiers are redundant in your example since there's only one beginning of line per line and one end of line per line.

I would instead write this:

sed -r 's/^\s+|\s+$//g' <<< "$FOO"

EDIT: I think I see now what you probably thought would happen by using g, but no it wouldn't remove multiple spaces. So, you example also fails when $FOO is " x" (using 2 or more spaces at the ends).
> Bezos said the first electric delivery vans will be on the road by 2021

I strongly doubt this will happen. Their truck still isn't in production and they haven't even built a concept van yet. The chances of them producing vans in two years is very low.
LLVM developers are focused on the needs of (literally!) millions of C and C++ programmers. Until you can point to a few hundred-thousand production Rust coders, or get somebody with deep pockets to depend on it, Rust is just not important enough. The solution is to fund your own LLVM developers. If you can't raise the money to pay them, who should?

People with deep pockets are typically advised not to depend on unsupported infrastructure. It is hard and, often, unwise to argue with such advice.

It is still early days. Give it ten years: Rust will either have taken off or sunk, by then. Maybe somewhere in those years there will be some new hotness to jump on instead.

> I didn't say the G3 couldn't take good pictures. However saying "my G3 once took a good picture, therefore it's equivalent to this" isn't reasonable. Those are difficult scenes and unless you have a G3 to take a picture in the same lighting and conditions, your claim is baseless.

Talk about moving goalposts. What a bunch of baloney. Apparently now you can't argue any point without replicating exactly those specific images in the article. It isn't worth continuing a discussion since you don't have much constructive to add. I actually showed you a great example of a challenging HDR image snapped by a G3, which is more "proof" than anything you've provided so far.

Like I said in my original post, the iPhone 11 makes a great improvement in general. I pointed out that a lot of the excitement that the OP has about the wide-angle lens at the top of the article is justified in that wide-angle on smart phones is a lot of fun from a photography perspective (I've been able to enjoy it for several years already). But it has less to do with the wide-angle shots being miles superior than what has already been out there. No reason to take those observations so personally.

This is one of the most blatantly pro-solar and wind power comments i have seen. If we wanted to use Solar and Wind, we would have to destroy so much of the natural habitat to do it. It would not work. The damage to the planet to make all these batteries would be massive. And 100% renewables does not equal zero carbon energy.

Which is a worry as I've a few Huwaai products - one of which they have yet to release a manual for and still a work in progress by their own admission on a product that has been out for nearly half a year and known about for a year from initial trade airing. Let alone bugs, design flaws and general case of great hardware, just as always let down by software oversights. Heck a full blown router today and you can't change the DNS due to some bug, this is 2019, and I've got old routers 15 years old that did more, better. Talking about the Huawei AI Cube 4G router here btw - nice kit, just needs some love on the software and...a manual.

There's two main incentives to go public: raising money and liquidity.

They don't need to tap public markets to raise money. And investors are likely OK holding off on liquidity if the valuation continues to rise.

Going public typically requires a significant amount of effort across the company, which can reduce focus on other initiatives key to growing the business.
Sure 10% of that city, but there's quite a bit more population in under 30 minutes of driving.

>> It's a total vindication for Coalfire (IMO)

But think about this from the perspective of the cops. The contract can get coalfire out of any liability for damage done to the building and any potential break and enter. That is consent between contracting parties. But an alarm was set off. The police were called. This isn't exactly a case of them filing a false police report, but the police were indeed called under false pretenses.

I used to work in a building with remote monitoring and extensive security, including armed response (military). We did these tests monthly. But as soon as the alarm was triggered, someone was on the phone to the military police. If their supervisor decided to roll the cars and test his officer's response time that was with his permission. We would never, ever, have insist that cops stop what they were doing, possibly something dangerous/real/important, and physically respond to our not-real security test.
Why is Jack Ma anywhere near this list.

I haven't seen any innovation from Apple or Google because all they're doing is catching up to DSLRs which are still hundreds of miles ahead in picture quality. For amateur use, the iphone can certainly satisfy, or so can pretty much any camera made within the last 10 years.
"They assume" is probably too much credit IMO. It was the mid-2000s, no one knew what they were doing, least of all the WP core team (the security holes show that), so they made a product with a design that no longer make sense, but it's hard to evolve away from.

No, it really isn't. They are inseparable in building a smart grid of intermittent sources.

A house that is an overall exporter still needs coverage for the night time. Maybe household battery, maybe import from the grid. It does not need a battery capable of weeks or even an entire day.

A city needs some TWh capacity when solar is not functioning, some other capacity when wind is not functioning, etc. It's perfectly reasonable to import some of that from other parts of the country or region which aren't currently cloudy or wind-free, and export when there is excess. Storage needs to cover any shortfall, and some excess to cover growth and the unforeseen. It doesn't need to run for weeks assuming zero replacement for a period of dead calm, or assuming country or continent wide dead calm.

If you want every house or city a self contained island without grid interconnect, then your storage requirements ramp up markedly.
