Patreon assumes the bulk of the legal risk, and GitHub probably is ok with Patreon.

FWIW I agree with you, Google isn't prioritizing solving this properly and is opting to take the easy way out
A lot of native HTML controls cannot be styled, instead they are re-created in JS.

This causes problems with accessibility, and burdens the browser with unneeded JS.

On a very related note, Safari not supporting date and time inputs on MacOS, and not having full support on iPhone, is super irritating. Having to add a bunch of barely accessibility JS controls to my site because Apple refuses to implement a spec after a bug was filed 6 years ago (https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=119175) was rather annoying.
Buzz Feed News (yes!) covered this same story with much more sensitivity several weeks ago.

One major difference is that I can still use all those things you listed (and in many cases, do). I can't continue using Google Reader or Google Code.

There are alternatives, of course, but the burden is on me to migrate. When I'm forced to keep migrating away from Google products, I find it less and less appealing to continue using more of their products.
> If the goal is to keep me busy for X number of hours a day, instead of getting a job done whatever it requires, why am I salaried?

The "goal" in a lot of cases is nebulous (i.e. "keep developing the product", "improve stability", etc). There might not be a manager feeding you tasks every time you run out. At least in my company, you are expected to figure out on your own how to continually make the product better and proactively do it, not sit around idle after rapidly finishing the last task your manager gave you.

If you are just a dumb worker that can only work when your manager fills your queue, you are not valuable to me as a salaried employee (you are more valuable as a contractor who I can call upon for a one-off difficult task that you can then complete in 30 minutes).
The article makes several points that a lot of this effort came out of Accessibility requirements. Microsoft is very serious about Accessibility. They can't stop a web developer from breaking Accessibility, but they certainly care if the defaults are Accessible.
I am not talking fiber to the home, I am talking a fiber backed infrastructure, like cell towers and such.

If the solution was to provide Internet wirelessly, we would have that right now. The cell phone infrastructure provides much higher data-densities than any satellite network will ever be able to provide.
A great way to have nobody come to your parties.
Oh wow. Any links to read more on this?

So either don't stop paying, or move everything out before stopping?

On the other hand, I guess if you have limited resources, why would you not optimize the use of them?
> Something I noticed at the time was that the syntax for functional languages tends to be verb then noun: f(x), whereas the syntax for object oriented languages tends to be noun then verb: x.f().... There's a big difference in usability though: auto-complete.

Auto-complete also really helps with discoverability. Consider checking for the presence of a key in a map/dictionary. In Java, auto-complete will quickly lead you to `map.containskey(key)`. In Python, though, you'd have to know that the syntax is `if value in dict`.

Now, let's check for the presence of a value. Auto-complete again quickly leads you to `map.containsValue(value)`. In Python, Google tells me that it's `if value in dict.values()`, which seems more difficult to stumble upon.

And that's for a built-in data structure. A lot of my job involves trudging through other people's code, trying to figure out how they architect their ball of cats. Auto-complete is a great tool for that; it lets you quickly and easily poke around, and see what the various nouns in the system can do.
You do realize that FBI and similar state agencies shared CP online to catch people? So, did FBI victimize children and should face appropriate punishment (the same as other people who are sharing it)?

And about your last point: FBI and other people who investigate it absolutely do watch CP. Again - who is the victim in this specific case? Does children somehow not victimized when "good" people watch CP?
I'm hopeful that people under repressive governments and censorship will be able to leverage satellite services for uncensored access.

With SpaceX's scale and low cost, I suppose it's even possible they could adopt a model where China tries to shoot down their satellites when they are over China and when they're successful SpaceX just replaces them with spares. It's possible that launching satellite-killer missiles will cost China significantly more than replacing satellites will cost SpaceX which might make it a non-viable approach for the Chinese. (Note: I don't know anything about anti-satellite missiles, so just idly speculating).
Yes, because the balk is at the concept not the amount.
Was there any usage of coinjoin in the tracking of the bitcoins? Where are the gritty details of this case?
You can't reject someone depositing to your address. So a tumbler can taint whichever addresses it pleases

You aren't tracking coins with the ledger, only totals. So address A can have 10 btc, tumbler adds 5 to A, then A transfers 5 to B, 5 to C. If C is an exchange, does it consider that A is still holding 5 tumbled coins? Or does it say B has the tumbled coins? Or does it reject A's offer of 5? Feel free to shift values such as A having 100 BTC, receiving 0.01 tumbled BTC, & wanting to send 1 BTC to exchange

Also hard to track something like A sending tumbled coins to B, which triggers the owner of B to have C send non tumbled coins to D. You can even have this service offered at an exchange rate, so D receives less than B did
It's more that the percentages, whilst adding up, don't match.
I like how all the pictures show these idyllic refrigerators with three items per shelf.

All this advice is well and good, but our fridge is usually so full that the ideal place for something is "wherever you can find a space".
"Sure, let me get back to you later."
>On the other hand, roughly 85% of the population worldwide is already covered by 3G or 4G networks.

First, and less importantly, source. Because phone companies love to toss out coverage numbers that are pure, unadulterated bullshit. But second that's less important because 3G and 4G are both completely uncompetitive for broadband. LTE is basically the minimum there. And awful data caps and congestion remain a serious issue all over the place.

>A fiber PoP / tower has much lower OPEX than launching, operating a constellation of satellites.

Is it? I mean, seriously. A lot of SpaceX's plans are based on estimated launch costs via Super Heavy, so necessarily somewhat speculative. But the target is sub-$100/kg, and at least in terms of fundamentals (like cost of fuel, Raptor effectiveness, estimated cadence) that doesn't look ridiculous. Each Starlink satellite apparently has a mass over around 230 kg. Add a bit of extra mass for some bigger sats in the mix, double the launch cost to be a bit more conservative, and we're still talking a launch cost per satellite of well under $60k a piece. They necessarily have everything needed to operate their design lifetime, because there is no maintenance that can be done on them. They're operating low enough that solar weather shouldn't be too constant a concern, and of course will never face OPEX costs like vegetation clearing or weather damage or corrosion or the like. Also doesn't face NIMBY tower politics either. Is it actually more expensive then running fiber and building/maintaining a tower? For very high density locations probably, but there's a pretty sizable population in the US alone for whom it seems on napkin math it could be very competitive.
Android is worth sh*t without any apps. I consider providing a market for apps and managing the quality of the market is their responsibility, business expense not developers.
They haven't chosen to just "not do that".

They've chosen to pre-emptively cover their arse against a risk less likely than an asteroid hitting Earth by just nuking the apps.

There's another thread on HN about this right now - I don't know how these people can like, exist, in this world, with every one of the hairs on their head individually combed into a perfect slick. Can you even eat breakfast without worrying about some tail risk?

Too much HN for today, methinks. I'm so glad that the normal people I interact with in the world aren't this wanky (I don't mean you or other posters here, but the bureautwats that actually implement this stuff)
This was always just demonstrating the power of wishful thinking over reality: anyone who trusted it was gambling that every law-enforcement officer was unfamiliar with the technology, unable to get help, and that situation would continuously be the case in the future at least past the statue of limitations where applicable. All of those were obviously unwise assumptions before Bitcoin even existed.
>I have never understood the appeal of BitCoin as a means of purchasing or selling illegal materials. The entire transaction history is literally encoded in a public ledger!

Don't most illegal users use tumblers that commingle money from many addresses and then send back (in different quantities and at random times and sometimes from unrelated addresses) bitcoin of roughly the same value? Or is that no longer the case now that transaction costs are higher?
I'm more thinking from the kid's point of view. These are the formative years when a human being develops one's own identity and sense of self-worth. Mandatory school uniforms encourage, well, uniformity instead of diversity (on a psychological level), and I doubt that's healthy for a developing mind.

In particular, justifying school uniforms because "you can't tell the rich kids from the poor kids" deprives both poor kids from learning how to positively interact with rich kids and rich kids from learning how to positively interact with poor kids. Being able to interact with people of wide socioeconomic diversity is a valuable skill.

I've also heard a lot of anecdotal evidence about school uniforms being problematic in inner cities because they'll inadvertently align with gang colors, meaning that students walking to/from school would have to either bring a change of clothes (and change at school twice a day) or risk being targeted for gang violence.
I'll be the first to apologize for dismissing your comment. The crypto space is full of outlandish claims, wild conspiracy theories and general craziness. I think the way you phrased your comment caused me to dismiss it, and without linking to evidence I took it as "just another (pro-/anti-)crypto conspiracy theory." That article is a great read, though while I’m not sold yet, there’s certainly a compelling narrative there :) I've removed my downvotes.
5 Skills employees want their bosses to have
The system you build initially when you're not exactly sure how your product or business are going to work should definitely not be the system that you then take and "scale up" to 100+ developers. Any expectation of doing that is foolhardy and a sure recipe for never emerging from the tarpit of microservice complexity.

What on earth makes people think the responsibility divisions they make on day 1 are going to be the right responsibility divisions further down the line? Transplanting parts of your data model across boundaries is a complex and painful job.

The best Front-End Framework to Learn
This is not accurate for all fridges. For example, mine vents cold air from the freezer through a door on the upper level, so my upper level is both the coldest and the widest temperature range.
Yes, 'influence' is a question of degree and there is no neat threshold at which one company's influence is too great. Just like there is no neat threshold at which a company is "too monopolistic", yet we still have processes for adjudicating these cases.

Twitter and its many employees and shareholders can vote and lobby, but if they can turn a knob and unilaterally influence elections, clearly they are on the wrong side of that threshold.

The best steelman I can think of is that social media is really analogous to a cable company where each person you're interested in following is a channel. Of course, this falls down for lots of reasons, mostly because Twitter controls which channels you're exposed to and in which proportions--a feature for which there is no real cable analog.

Exactly, that is the real problem, the lack of competition from terrestrial networks. In the US the ISPs operate as a monopoly. In most big cities in Europe you have 3/4 providers to choose from, which reduces costs and increases the quality of service.
Thinking about it a bit more, I prefer "did you eat my food"? That way you are not accusing someone, after all maybe they didn't.

To me the issue of asking "would you" sounds like the request is optional and they can say, "no I won't". In this case there is no negotiating.
I understood it as that the thick border is just the focus highlight.
Even in the winter, I put my vegetables and most fruits in the fridge too (bananas being my usual exception, since they're so underripe when I buy them). They just last longer that way...

The fact that you say that unwashed eggs can be left out leaves it open for debate. It's the lack of a must that gives rise to it.

Ok? But they do, so that’s why they’re concerned.
I'm aware of how orbital mechanics works, but I brought up units specifically since 70% is close to the ratio between kilometers and miles. The orbital speed of Mercury, for reference, is much closer: https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=orbital+speed+of+mercu...
I'm referring to coastlines, estuaries, river deltas, wetlands, etc. In terms of surface area of the Earth, it seems easy to make the argument that those places are relatively rare.

Development of this land hasn't been off-limits historically, although many of these places in the U.S. are now (rightfully) preserved. Certain types of development are more detrimental to ecosystems than other types.

If something is rare and good, it should probably be preserved, regardless of how natural it is. In this case, we're talking about natural landscapes and living beings that cannot be re-created once they are gone.

How so? It's just a header that the web server / ssl accelerator / ELB / application would send. That is entirely independent of Google. If you mean Chrome + being logged into google, that is already a risk today without any headers. Google know which sites are adult (mostly).
I favor storing chilled any produce that's chilled when sold, which includes most green vegetables, at least around here. Plus berries because I'm desperate to keep them from going moldy inside 48hrs, assuming they aren't already moldy when I get them home.

Fruit, not so much. That pile of apples in the drawer is just a waste of fridge space.
Large, centralized bureaucracies routinely make mistakes with sweeping reforms intended to improve quality of life at the cost of freedom -- and then rarely if ever apologize or make corrections. They lack "skin in the game", and work on an asymmetry in power and information and almost always a lack of consequences [0].

This is why many industries & sytems in US are broken: medical (including psychiatric), educational, drug & criminal justice, etc.

When I was a kid in the summer my dad would take me with him for the day on his sales route. One of my favorite places for us to stop for lunch was Detroit's first pizzeria.

When it opened in the late thirties pizza was totally unknown in Detroit. The founder was an immigrant from Naples. An Italian friend of my father's introduced him to the place and he took my Mother there on one of their first dates.

The owner and his wife were by then good friends of my Dad and it was almost like being in someone's kitchen, if things were slow they'd sit at the table with us.
As many people are probably typing this at the same time: bread goes stale faster in the fridge. If you need to preserve bread for a while, freezing is the way to go.

No, Monero is not traceable in any real-world, common-sense way. This "attack" is academic and theoretical.
I don't know about that. I recently found out how a webcomic I followed until the artist was forced to cancel it was supposed to end. It gave me some closure for characters I spent years caring about.
About 6 years ago I ordered a tv on Amazon, it was going to be shipped out and delivered in about a week.

About an hour later I got a phone a call with a thick accented voice – "John, John, are you home?"

"Who is this?"

"I got your TV, we can come over right now."

Sure enough they pulled up with their van and I got my TV about two hours after I ordered. Unknown to me I had ordered it from a Hasidic run company just down the street from my home in Brooklyn.
I'm reading "getting 2to3 to do a clean conversion" as having a python2 codebase but then running 2to3 to build a "python3" version before deployment. If I recall, that was touted as the approach in the early days of python3 and conversions. I haven't seen it used or talked about much, recently, although I'm aware that later tools like pasteurize attempt to do the reverse (but haven't tried them).

I worry that doing this would basically cause much of the pain of maintaining separate codebases - inevitable bugs that affect one or the other, with the problem of not being able to directly write in one of them, and getting to where you have to check both for new code. Plus, it doesn't cover everything (or can't - e.g. ambiguous cases were removed), and has a few places where it makes mistakes (have seen but cannot recall) - so you end up having to write cross-compatible code for some things yourself anyway.

I feel that extra dependencies, especially commonly known, understood and reasonably well documented ones, is an extremely small price to pay.

We decided early on for our large project that developing separately and having a version shear where we "switched" to python3 would probably be chaos. The slow and gentle way, you can make changes and adjust the other developers at a more reasonable pace, the point at which you drop python2 is merely a decision with an empty changelog (at which point you can start stripping stuff out).
Sure, but while I have not done the research to back it up, I have the general feeling that a lot of religious prohibitions and traditions can have their origins traced back to rules from antiquity that made sense back then (stuff like not eating shellfish, for example) which were presented with a religious veneer to make them more memorable/enforceable. Over time these prohibitions got entrenched, extended, distorted because of misunderstandings, blind faith or more cynically, desire for control and power, and the original motivations were forgotten. This is, of course, a conclusion I came to without a lot of research so I'd love to take the time to look for evidence either way.

If this is true, it would also follow that more fundamentalist regions would have stricter interpretations of those rules. I does not take much imagination to come up with a version of the US where religious fundamentalism leads to "No Hand Holding" signs, and I'm sure at least some people living in the US right now would approve of such controls (thankfully they are not the majority).
I have anxiety and it’s not been a major issue for me when using LSD.. But I’m experienced in practicing mindfulness which helps tremendously. The anxiety tends to happen at the beginning of the trip so I remind myself that it’s just the acid and things will be awesome once I ride out the anxiety. For higher doses I usually meditate while the trip comes up.

Not that I haven’t had a bad trip, but when I did it was a result of a clear failure to respect set and setting. Changing the setting put things back on track so I’d characterize it as a “meh” trip rather than a bad one.

Often I experience a massive reduction in anxiety for several weeks following a trip so overall I’d say it’s been very beneficial for me.

idk if vegetables can live some days in the open in sicily they can live on a shelf long enough to be eaten, unless someone has not enough time to shop weekly.
Yes. I've done a lot of reading on the subject trying to explain and begin to understand how the incredibly positive changes I've experienced come about...and "reverse PTSD" seems remarkably close. A guided, safe psychedelic session is similar in that it's a one-time, extremely powerful event that causes a lasting change in the brain--except in this case it's positive and intentional* whereas PTSD is negative and wasn't sought out.

* There seems to be a large degree of choice in which changes one wants to take away from the experience but this is a highly subjective, personal conclusion.

Can you clarify your actual budget? Or is it $0?

For email, I found Migadu [0] this year and love them. It’s ~$50/year, but for that you get unlimited mailboxes. The limit is on how many emails/day you send. This might suit your needs?

How much cloud storage do you need? I’d be using the free tiers at Dropbox/OneDrive/etc., or some sort of P2P solution based off my own server. I use Resilio Sync and it’s great.

Good luck finding solutions to the rest. Sounds like something really worthwhile you’re doing there.

There are already lists that say what domains are adult. This would just be adding one field that says RTA=(0|1|2) 0 being no header, 1 being site wide header, 2 being headers per URL. Governments that wish to go chasing after domain owners for non compliance could do so, just as they do today for copyright violations. (domain take-downs, etc)
