pretty sure OP was sarcastically trying to highlight the possibility that some premises may not be safe to leave unexamined. though tone is much more something I'd expect to see on Reddit than HN, it's a valid criticism.
Fuel oil is pretty common as well, and the delivery method is the same, a truck comes round and tops of your tank periodically -- usually every few weeks or once a month in the winter, depending on how much heat your house leaks.
This is a reasonable question, but you will get more and better help here if you:

1) Tell us a bit about your product and what value it creates for your potential customers.

2) Read what's already been written on SaaS pricing (e.g. https://www.cobloom.com/blog/saas-pricing-models) and let us know your thoughts on how particular models seem to fit your case.

3) Tell us what you're going to do, and why.

Because the social contract of most countries is that your legally gained cash is to be taxed in one form or another and thus has to be known by the tax authorities?

You can argue that your assets are to be private to the general public but some countries do not have that assumption

I wanted headphones that didn't rely on electronic noise cancelling. I ended up with Sennheiser HD 280 Pros. Found them at Guitar Center, they had a really nice testing setup. They had the best combination of noise blocking and good sound, without being way over budget.
Can this potentially be used in 2D animation replacing the manual skeletal animating processes?

> They're two different approaches, one is quick and "dirty", the other is "enterprise", but the end result is the same: a website.

I would say one is appropriate for simple CRUD websites and the other is appropriate for more complicated web apps. Especially as you scale (your engineering organization or your traffic), things like microservices become increasingly useful.
Your examples seem like cases that can easily be handled by a checking account.

> Fundamentally, I should not have to explain why I would desire immediate access to my own cash reserves at a moment's notice to excuse broken financial infrastructure.

Yes, if you are investing in less-liquid assets to get a better RoI then you absolutely do. If you don't like the terms then you are free to keep your cash in your checking account.
this makes the labor market just a tiny bit fairer but we have a long way to go to fix the information asymmetries that affect every nook and cranny of labor. fairer labor markets mean more stable societies through various mechanisms, not the least of which is the more even distribution of power (social and economic).
The poster is talking about a single command that generates multiple outputs. e.g. a codegen tool that generates "foo.c" and "foo.h"
Sorry, but that's just nonsense. Mechanical time pieces that could even remotely be compared to a quartz in terms of precision and accuracy are few and far between and Seiko's 7s26 is certainly NOT among them by any means imaginable...

The truth is, 7s26 is a proper workhorse, but not particularly precise even when compared to others from the same category.

The 7s26 comes unregulated from the factory and its officail accuracy spec is an abysmal range of -35 to +45 seconds per day.

In reality, with 7s26 one can expect a daily deviation in the range of 20s between the 6 positions and the actual accuracy depends quite a bit on your luck, but is often resonably OK.

They are easily regulated, though... Basic regulation, I mean, nothing fancy. That still won't make the mechanism precise, but it can make it reasonably accurate if needed be, in the sub 10s area. Naturally, it will still fluctuate a bit, day to day, unlike a more precise mechanism would...

Compare that to a Grand Seiko that achieves -3s to +5s daily even under demanding conditions. These, especially if regulated a bit more, can achieve sub 1s daily even during longer periods of time... Now that's precise.

BTW, many people confuse the actual precision of a mechanism with the daily accuracy. Don't. Those are two very different things. :)

Just to mention, older Seiko 5 with 63xx calibres were, in practice, a bit better then the ones with 7s26, IMHO, especially those sporting a 6319 with 21 jewels. The 6309 were nice too but had a weak spot in their design.

The modern variants of 7s26, the 4r36 and 6r15 (don't let the designations fool you, it's the same calibre family) are a bit better but still nothing special. The factory spec for a 4r36 is still the abysmal -35s to +45s daily, the 6r15 is a bit better but still inadequate, IMHO.

Don't get me wrong, I quite like Seikos and also own a few :)
Wait but the Wizard of Oz actually helped the other characters, and he so did even after they had learned he has no magic powers.

I have no idea what's the moral here, if any.
I honestly don't know if I can take this article seriously when it implies that South Dakota repealing usury laws is singlehandedly responsible for all of the credit card debt in the US.
I've been following sourcetrail since the author did his cppcon talk. It does the job well - I remember loading Wolfenstein 3D into sourcetrail and watching the call graph explode from a single point of MAIN into a massive menorah of calls, all winding back to a circular buffer, and finally a single point of FREE. It was beautiful, and it's bittersweet to see the author go the open source route. I had high hopes for their commercial success.

Thanks for sourcetrail.
They are very similar. Overlayfs is in the default kernel tree, which would be the biggest difference.
Reapplying every 500 flushes doesn't seem practical. For a family of four and two toilets, if everyone goes four times a day, you're talking about reapplying every 2 months.

I think it depends on how exactly one applies it. If it’s just pouring something from a bottle over the bowl, it is perfectly practical, as this is already what one usually does when cleaning the toilet.
> "Abdication of duty" is a more apt description.

The legality of sanctuary cities has nothing to do with free speech. It has to do with separation of powers and the 10th Amendment. Long-standing constitutional jurisprudence is that the Federal government cannot "commandeer" states to enact Federal policies. See, e.g., https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printz_v._United_States

Rather, the Federal government can only, effectively, bribe them, but even then there are limitations--limitations added by many of the same conservative justices currently sitting. Indeed, one of the major conservative arguments against the ACA was that Medicare funding conditions were unconstitutional for this very reason.

Free speech is implicated only because the DoJ has apparently threatened to use this "encouragement" prohibition against state officials. That would be a curious end-run around federalism jurisprudence and I seriously doubt it would work regardless of the free speech angle.

There's one very practical reason for refusing to cooperate with ICE: if an ICE hold request turns out to be illegal (i.e. not backed by sufficient evidence, which is not uncommon considering the false positive rate for name+DoB matching), guess who's liable for potentially millions in a civil rights law suit? It's the municipality, not ICE. That's why some municipalities even in the South have an unstated policy of using their own best judgment wrt hold requests. The people in charge won't admit this in public, of course, because the partisan discourse has ensured voters lack any capacity for understanding the issues. Instead what happens is that whenever they get an ICE request they release the person and then claim it was accidental or that they were released before the request was processed.
I put one in my son's bedroom and was blown away. He's 3, and calls me in to sleep with him sometimes.

Make is very programmable; here's something from our code base:

# Yes I am aware that this looks like TECO and Prolog had a baby.

$(foreach prog,${3P-nonboost-packages},$(patsubst %,3P-build-%/${prog},${MAKE_CONFIGURATIONS})): 3P-src/$${@F} $(patsubst %,toolchain-%/_env,${CONFIGURATIONS})
@echo Building ${@F} for $(subst 3P-build-,,${@D})
@mkdir -p $@
@if [ -f "$</CMakeLists.txt" ] ; then \
${env-$(subst 3P-build-,,${@D})} cd $@ ; \
cmake -DCMAKE_MODULE_PATH='../../3P-$(subst 3P-build-,,${@D})/lib;../../toolchain-$(subst 3P-build-,,${@D})/lib' ${${@F}-cmake} -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../../3P-$(subst 3P-build-,,${@D}) ../../$< && cmake --build . ; fi

This is after extensive simplification.
Why can't someone just buy directly from Audible / Amazon with a one-time purchase instead of a subscription? For example, Obama's book is available on Amazon in audiobook format for $7.99. https://www.amazon.com/Dreams-My-Father-Story-Inheritance/dp...
The last point is fairly well-established and almost certainly not linked to organised crime: most immigrants work at businesses owned by other immigrants who might not formally employ people.

This is why most immigrant communities end up having to create their own banks - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Chinese_American_bank... - because they fail most credit tests but are usually pretty good credits.

This is a great tutorial for getting up and running fast. I started off with Spock too but grew out of it pretty quickly.

It's painful in Haskell you're learning it but feel you're not able to generate anything real for the first month(s) with it. Unfortunately, there's not many up-to-date tutorials like these available for beginners.
Maybe we should use people as a power source:)
Yeah that's where I'm at. There's this general sentiment that if AI does not solve everything immediately, then it is worthless and hype. Especially the part about not being able to deal with corner cases, forgetting that all AI needs to be valuable is to deal with such cases better than your average human, which isn't a very high bar.
No. He has repeatedly made the same comment (or "meme", "canard"). It is not insightful commentary; it is not much more beyond propaganda at this point.

California has made horrible financial decisions for over a decade. To pretend it is somehow moral to trap people and their wealth to those decisions is complete insanity. Also it won't work, to point out the obvious.

As I understand it, containers are just a set of concepts and kernel features put together to provide an abstraction that's not that different from virtual machines for common use cases.

Many of these areas are also chronically under-educated, and we don't do anything to prevent politicians from lying to them. If all you see and hear tells you "clean coal" is a real thing and you've also been convinced that without the power plants you have no future, it's easy to keep going to work and keep electing the same garbage politicians into office.

We owe them a better education system (as frankly we owe the whole country), and we owe them a political landscape where liars are not just taken to task by their opponent but removed from the electoral process.
Yes, you can also work for an established company with cramped offices in a dense, expensive city.

Or you can take a massive pay cut, tank your career, and go live in the middle of nowhere.

Sounds great.
It does show how insignificant electric cars are in the mix of things, and counter productive (unless recharged off-grid) compared to putting Gov rebates and incentives into alternate generation that gets these plants offline as quickly as possible.

Tesla (and other electric manufacturers) are years away from building 3.5 million cars for the US.
It's the "hidden" rewards of winning the war. The US didn't take any territory (cept leaving bases behind). But they can reap the financial control and profit immensely via this indirect control.

This is why the US does not want https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/BRICS to succeed and will do much to sabotage it.

In the world of politicking, there are no good guys - just lesser of evils (or better the devil you know).
sounds like we need more taxes cause these balance sheets are way too high
They're mostly the same, with different answers to tricky questions. e.g. if I stack filesystems A, B, C, and have the same file /foo/bar in all of the layers, and then do rm /foo/bar, what happens:

1. Does /foo/bar get removed from the topmost layer, exposing the one below?

2. Does /foo/bar get removed from all three layers?

3. Does /foo/bar get replaced with a "tombstone" record to pretend that it was deleted, while still appearing in some of A, B, or C on its own?

These semantics are tricky to get right, and during the process of upstreaming unionfs to the kernel, they made some incompatible changes to the model and chose different answers for these questions, and as a result, renamed it overlayfs.
Second this - I think it's the strongest textbook out there. Paul Kroll's dictionary (which is also available on the Pleco app) might be a good complement.

I would challenge the title's assertion somewhat; at least, when Canadian banks are involved (as one would assume even with shell companies).

Canada participates in the Automatic Exchange of Information (AEOI) [1]. That means that even though some of these companies might not be required to file tax reports, the banks where they hold their accounts most certainly have to report the account holder and, where applicable, all beneficial owners [2].

Simply put, if I, personally, held money at a Canadian bank either directly, or indirectly via a shell company, I might not have many reporting requirements with the Canadian government directly, but the bank would have reporting requirements, which would ultimately lead to the bank's reports landing on the desk of my home country's tax authority [3].

The only way around this is the bank not keeping their AML/KYC records as straight as they should, but supervisory authorities usually come down hard on those cases.

[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Reporting_Standard

[2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beneficial_owner

[3] Provided both countries actually exchange information, which is the case for dozens of countries as of now. That includes Canada, Switzerland, and many other countries one might consider a "tax haven". It doesn't include the USA, however. Many would say that the USA are the last real tax haven.
I wished there was a study on the emotional perception of music and mindfulness meditation. Whenever I did mindfulness meditation for an hour, if I'd listen to music after that I'd be a lot more sensative towards the feelings experienced by it.
More stuff or better stuff?
Consider connecting wireless headphones to your laptop instead of to your phone

I suggest listening to one of the following:

1. Music you don't already know because you can't hum along to them and won't get distracted by the lyrics (Spotify radios can be great, though they get repetitive if you listen to them a lot)

2. Classical music is great if not too tired otherwise it puts you to sleep

3. Deep / underground house like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nz26ohrCNIY&t=2s great if you're cranking at a quantitative problem or coding

4. Instrumental jazz to me is the midpoint between the intensity of listening to house and the absolute serenity of classical music, but ymmv
That's a really crafty way of saying "they did it, so I should be able to do it"
While its true that disposable consumer goods are a problem, I feel like you're attempting a dogpile via rhetoric rather than really engaging with the spirit of the grandparent's post.

Folks weren't even remotely concerned with industrial or consumer waste "in those days" historically, and actually produced quite a bit. What's more, many of these products you're describing used dangerous chemicals or materials that caused many problems.

And if we're really harping on writing utensils, all but the cheapest mechanical pencils easily outlast and outperform the lousy (and pointlessly expensive and historically mildly toxic) historically yellow pencils.

And for consumer electronics, its interesting to note that the non-replacement policy happens because the components are often so minimal and optimized.

It's not clear that we should apply the lessons of physical deployment to software, as the art and science of software is still developing from infancy at such an amazing pace. Modern software (even the bad stuff that us trendy to hate) tends to be remarkably better, prettier and often even faster (albeit at the cost of volatile memory) than even relatively well-thought-out older software from average developers.

Give the future a little credit, would ya?

You’ve clearly never paid the electric bill for a house that used electric baseboards for heat in the winter. 5k cad/yr in BC for a 3000 sq ft house with 6 occupants. Bill for June and July is only $100, it’s all winter heating load.
Comparitively natural gas bills are about $200 for two months in the winter. Many people heat with wood and the air quality goes to shit.
I'm still not understanding the problem (sorry for being obtuse).

If you have a program called `makes-two-files` you could have a recipe:

foo.c foo.h: predecessor_of_foo
@makes-two=files foo

There are other ways to do this in Make as well. I use Make extensively to drive CMake which makes all sorts of products, so my confusion comes from thinking this works fine (works for my purpose, obviously, but I'm interested in other possibilities).
JavaScript in browsers was decreed by the standards committee to be single-threaded forever. Consequently, JavaScript is entirely lacking in concurrency constructs, e.g., implementing a region of mutual exclusion inside a JavaScript program.

Note that the author of that paper (a friend of mine) wrote another build system, the dead-simple-but-awesome make.py. I have a mirror/fork of it[0], since it's been unmaintained for a while (but it mostly doesn't need any maintenance).

The entire build system is a single Python script that's less than 500 lines of code. Rather than trying to fit complicated rules into Make's arcane syntax, rules are specified with a Python script, a rules.py file (see [1]). But the script should be thought of more as a declarative specification: the rules.py file is executed once at startup to create the dependency graph of build outputs, and the commands to build them.

Yet, despite the small size, it's generally easier to specify the right dependencies, do code generation steps, and get full CPU utilization across many cores.

At some point I'd like to write more about make.py and try to get it used a bit more by the public...

Time to get gross here.

I have been dealing with neck/mouth cancer for a while and using a feeding tube for about half of my calories. My movements, depending on the alignment of the stars resemble the mortar used to join cinder blocks together. It is explosive and sticks to the bowl. I can flush ten times and it doesn't budge and I have to manually get in there.

So I am going to try this. It is cheap enough and even if it helps a little will be a huge quality of life improvement.

Three months into chemo it wasn't great dealing with every trip to the bathroom being a chore. And combine that with the fact that my immune system was basically non-existent. Lingering fecal matter was a health risk.

Possibly that could have been done in a controlled and experimental fashion rather than condemning the infrastructure of entire countries to costing twice, thrice or more?

Anyway the point stands. It isn't fair but the people who avoided being involved are going to be much, much better off than those that did.
That's true, this would allow you to build a compromise antenna that works reasonably well over a range of frequencies without being tuned. On a Yagi you could probably achieve that by purposefully varying the distance between the resonators a bit from ideal, correct?

The "benefit" of having government decide how to invest that money, as opposed to those who earned it, is strictly negative. All other considerations aside, the moral cost of endorsing the use of force in this manner outweighs any possible material benefit.

Using corporate taxes to shift the burden onto foreigners, as you've suggested, is at best a short-term tactic. The other countries would just enact reciprocal policies and we'd be back where we started, except with less international trade and poorer diplomatic relations. Isolationism is not a recipe for domestic economic bliss.

I don’t believe the nature study results presented there. The MMSE is such a basic test that it is almost impossible to score less than full marks unless you are cognitively impaired. I’ve run through it hundreds of times with patients. The other tests are more cognitively demanding.
Looking at the Table 1 of that nature study, there appears as if there would be a significant difference in the distribution of ages - couple extra older people in one of the study groups. I think this is a false positive result
