It's a moot point who "pays". The tax is added to the transaction which means less profit for the company. I pay VAT. I can sell my product for X. Just because I need to add VAT doesn't mean I can magically sell for X +23% because people wouldn't buy it. The price is set by demand/supply. Paying VAT means the company makes less profit.

I send the VAT money to my government every month. If I didn't have to do that it would be my profit. "The customer pays" rhetoric doesn't hold water. Customers don't care how much of the price is the tax. They make their buying decision based on sticker value.
That's an easy question to answer - because they looked cool and futuristic. If you watch old episodes of Doctor Who or 70s films you will often see props and displays with similar fonts, and video games followed that aesthetic.

I guess those fonts had just started to appear on cheques and machine readable tickets so people associated those typefaces with computers.
It's true that local air quality can vary a lot, but there aren't enough sensors in the world to give everyone street-by-street data. I think it's still useful to have a fast source for real time "best available" data. I am thinking about ways to add context and allow people to judge the data quality without adding features like maps that would make the site much slower.
For these kind of stuff it was particularly shocking (or telling of the raw power Zen 2 achieves) that AMD Epycs surpassed Intel in one of their own benchmarks this year.
This is great. But could you explain what it actually does and how you developed it and are you earning money from it?
If only there was some sort of pipe that could be used to divert this gas over long distances to more economic processing facilities.
you can use pari-gp for your floating point needs inside unix. It's an extremely beautiful calculator language (for rational, floating point and polynomials). Also octave and julia, if you are mostly interested in matrices, but they take quite a few miliseconds to start and are not as useful inside shell loops.
The people making the randomizes usually have pretty good understanding of the game and it's obstacles. By building up a logical tree of what items are needed to reach which locations, you can make sure the randomized game is possible to clear.
The person I was responding to said that AMP was fast for a reason other than prerendering. That's wrong. Prerendering is the main point of AMP, which is what I pointed out in my comment.

A full AOL style walled garden is what Apple News and Facebook Instant Articles are. AMP enables the same speed in a way that any link aggregator can take advantage of without having to strike deals with individual publishers.
Does anyone have a good recommendation for a Yelp-like OSS?
I love my dependence on the GUI, otherwise would still be stuck using MS-DOS.
At least Obama tried to bring them to them mainland and house them old prisons etc which would've brought the inmates under the jurisdiction of non military courts and thus they would've gotten their day in court, a fair trial not military court bs. Sadly no one wanted to do this, talks of "I'm not going to let terrorists anywhere near my home!" were prevalent and the plan was dead. There is no easy way of choosing Guantanamo Bay given the military industrial complex.
If you/your CEO/folks from your company could write an article/blog post about the experience, it would be a great resource to share and point people to — to seed discussion. Please consider :-)
Nose cancer!!!? There's nose cancer?
Correct. It does completely prevent the attack for IPv4, however, so we didn't notice the attack until the rp_filter settings were changed.

I can verify that turning rp_filter on in my use case is an acceptable solution on Manjaro and Ubuntu.

EDIT: To clear up the confusion below, I was saying that setting the rp_filter variable to strict mode does prevent this attack from working against IPv4, and in my situation, this is enough since I am not using IPv6 or any complicated routing on my network etc.
Perhaps there's an opportunity to create a demo webpage using tensorflow.js? Especially with the new TSLite support. To raise visibility and awareness. The posenet webcam demo[1] for example, seems to have ~2k links.

The randomizers I have followed (Link to the Past, Final Fantasy) only choose viable randomizations.

They are aware of the items that are required to progress and make sure they are available appropriately.

I just finished a run of Link to the Past / Super Metroid crossover randomizer. And it's one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had. The items for both games are randomized and distributed across both games. For example, I found the first sword in Link to the Past above Samus's ship in Crateria in a secret area.
Longevity may lie in a gene called REST
Now imagine hypothetical scenario. Some innocent victim of the torture program or victim's relative decides to take revenge on USA by committing a mass murder or a terrorist attack. Wouldn't it be kinda justified? With an exception of kids, how many Americans are really blameless for these actions? They elected the leaders who allowed it (both Republicans - Bush and Democrats - Obama), they don't hold people who committed it accountable, they didn't try to make amends to victims or reimburse them. Many people go to BLM protest, but this torture was much worse than that and Americans just ... don't care.
If you know who your judge will be, but you don't have a lawyer yet, just go sit in their courtroom for a while watching the defenders. You want the one that everyone from the state says hello to, and laughs and jokes with. Even better if they have the same type of rapport with the judge. Follow them out when they're finished, and ask them for their card. (reiterated from my other reply)

I don't remember much, but it might be a thinkpad, it had the nub instead of touch pad or track pad.
A lot of effort goes into ensuring that you don't randomize the game into an unwinnable state. Many of these games are so well known by speedrunners and fans, that they know what items are required for each part of the game. The Link to the Past randomizer, IIRC, actually gives you the option to randomize the game in a way that requires no glitches, or randomize the game so that glitches may be needed.
I think GP is saying that you could not use it as a basis for proprietary software but you could build on it it and sell it to people as long as you published your modifications.
From the paper: An individual with a 60 minute commute has to earn 40 per cent more money to be equally satisfied with life as an individual who can walk to the office.

I found this very interesting, given the fact that I know a lot of people who work in major cities but live outside the city for financial purposes. Might make more sense to bite the bullet and pay high rent to live next to your workplace.

This is complicated for couples though, because it is hard for you and your partner to find employment in the same part of a city. So one of you will probably have to make a sacrifice.

I would be very interested in how remote work figures into all of this. Does the interaction with humans outweigh the benefits of being able to roll out of bed and be at the office?

Randomizers are restricted to follow a tree branching logic to ensure that the game can be completed based on all accessible items at any given moment. For some games, there can be several difficulty tiers of logics. In harder logics, the game might only be beatable if the player is aware of an obscure glitch or nuance in the game engine.
I agree with your literal statements, but Google does abuse AMP. The way they hijack left/right swipe and the back button for carousel loaded pages is ample evidence for me. It's very clearly not my content any more when you steal the top X pixels and hijack user interactions.

AMP also requires I include a Google owned and controlled piece of JavaScript that they can change at any time. That's literally in the "standard". In fact, a bad update borked all AMP pages for quite a while some time ago.
There is no good way to to solve it other than just to use the appropriate tools like react-saga or placeholder state for components.

If you try to make nested components load at the same time consequences can be unpredictable, suspense lacks fine grained control so it is basically a convenient shortcut, same as react state mixins were at the time.
This is why I hate the street sweepers in LA. In any other city, street sweepers leave a wet trail like a slug. In LA, they are basically a dry broom that kicks up dust. They are designed to pick up trash from the gutter, not clean the road of particulates and oils like in other cities.
Are you part of the team WEBINY ?
yes and the original manhattan recipe calls for equal parts vermouth and whiskey. you probably wouldn't want to drink it like that.

not only do people's tastes change over time, but so do the ingredients themselves. you can't necessarily buy the exact same gin, vermouth, and campari that was available to the count a hundred years ago. of the gins and vermouth available today, there is quite a range of diversity. you leave a lot on the table if you aren't willing to tweak ratios based on the ingredients you have.
Does Natural Law Need Elegant Mathematics?
Yes, "not imprisoning children" is pretty much a "vision", not even backed by international treaties. On the other hand, "making money at all costs" and "imprisoning children" are realities.

And in the middle, there are those who:

- threaten to leave GitHub if GitHub doesn't cave in to their demands (don't sell to MS, don't work with ICE, etc.),

- and threaten to leave GitHub if GitHub caves in to the government's demands (close Iranian accounts, etc.).
Sorry for the dumb question, but:

400 pounds is a lot, that's more than 10%. The degradation is almost certainly not linear. There is an old study, which admittedly has its flaws, showing road damage was proportional to the fourth (!!!) power of the weight. I don't believe it's that bad (there are very specific conditions for that study and also it does not directly translate to tire wear), but I'd imagine it's at least to the second power, making a roughly 25% difference using your example vehicles.

If someone knows more precise math, please share.

Where are you from, that your hands are lily white? Trying to say that the US is equivalent to China because they both have concentration camps is completely ridiculous.

Even the children of illegal immigrants with unpopular religions in the US will have the legal and right to contribute to future US policies. China's treatment of the Uyghur and US treatment of illegal immigrants are both immoral, but they aren't by any means the same.
> The way they hijack left/right swipe and the back button for carousel loaded pages

This doesn't happen for me on any of my Android browsers. The problem is likely with your browser. I wouldn't be surprised if Chrome on iOS is buggy just like every other browser available for iOS.

> AMP also requires I include a Google owned and controlled piece of JavaScript that they can change at any time

If you don't want your page to load instantly from Google, Bing, and other link aggregators, don't use it. Same with Apple News, which has more ornery integration requirements. I, as a user, will simply skip over your links to find faster ones. If you don't give users what they want, what do you expect will happen?
Bizarre doesn't seem like the right word here. Evil, maybe.

> The two-year statute of limitations on his "false imprisonment" started ticking when Watson first went before a judge, the majority said. That meant it expired while he was still in ICE custody, without a lawyer.

A perfect example of bureaucracy and "the rules" used for evil.
> I mean, if Wittgenstein and Gödel haven't already hollowed out the possibility that language could have some innate non-information-theoretic meaning...

Can't unpack this.

> For those who aren't really aware of what's going on, right now the bedrock of science is mathematics, and the hardest science is physics, and both are fully information-theoretic. "it from bit" theories are not just common, but fully compatible with our ways of looking at the world.

Never know what is meant by bedrock (or foundation) in these cases and I can never understand the reductive desire to swap philosophy out for science and to single out physics as the go-to science.

Is is incorrect to call Floridi's work an "it from bit" theory, if that's what you're doing. See my longer response elsewhere here.

> In order to transcend information theory, one would have to abandon mathematics, and probably abandon logic as well. This more or less closes the door to a lot of the gibbering low-quality metaphysical pandering that is common in philosophical foundations. Another way of putting it is that, just like with empiricism and science, we have realized in mathematics a way to move forward, and that movement forward is creating pseudologic, in the same way that empiricism highlights pseudoscience. Mathematics is logic is metaphysics is mathematics, and deities really cannot be omnipotent.

Information theory and the Philosophy of Information are distintc though tangential subjects.

>> Mathematics is logic is metaphysics is mathematics, and deities really cannot be omnipotent.

??? False equivalences and then an odd non-sequitur.

> As a final note, who are we to deny that life is informational? We're made of DNA and RNA, of proteins and cellular messages, of neuronal configurations and connectomes, and your entire reply is that it's uncomfortable to imagine.

Nobody would deny that. Life is order from chaos (struggling against the tyranny of entropy), that order is information-bearing, we are information processing beings, as are our digital offspring.

Krita Weekly #6 – Krita Development Updates
I think the big differentiator is power top actually. When I upgraded to 19.10, I was prompted to check the differences between the old/new versions of the power top config file. The new version had a few more comments and was clearly updated, so I used the new config file during the upgrade process and went through all the options to make sure they made sense for my laptop.
A few of us are trying to get development moving again on Sandstorm.io. It's a super handy (and default-extremely-secure) piece of software, it just needs a little nudge of developer interest. It's original target was the enterprise space, but it's an awesome self-hosting platform for privacy nerds too.

The OSS is out there, but you've gotta wrap it in enough design work to make the experience comparable to closed source offerings: Most businesses aren't going to want to pay for worse software.
Randomizers have logic that restricts the way the items can be randomized. For example, in the default mode of the Link to the Past randomizer, you need the boots to get the item off the top of the bookshelf in the library, so that item will never be the boots. You need either the lamp or the fire rod to get through certain caves and sections of palaces, so you're guaranteed to be able to find either the fire rod or the lamp prior to having to complete those palaces.

Using glitches can help you "sequence break", to a certain extent - if you use a glitch called "fake flippers", you can reach certain areas of LttP that would normally require the flippers without having them. You'll never be required to do so to beat a seed in default mode, but doing so can save a ton of time if there's a required item blocked by the flippers and the flippers are a pain to get.

The LttP randomizer also includes "glitches required" modes, where varying levels of glitch execution might be required to complete the game, and the logic is relaxed accordingly.
More to the point, the prosecutors frequently don't really have enough of a case to convict most criminals. They necessarily become experts at bullshitting juries and steamrolling people. The actual facts of the case, like your guilt or innocence, are irrelevant. Their job is to secure the conviction, not to determine guilt.
Agreed with the need to have a uniform corporate tax, but not 0 - it must be higher than personal tax, otherwise you just create a new loophole.

I'd say either 20% or profit or 2% of turnover, whichever is higher. Before dividends and stock buybacks.

The corporations need to sustain the social infrastructure that made them possible in the first place.
I've never used note taking and I don't miss it.
I'm pleased to see that the randomizer community has been getting a lot more attention as of late. I made my own randomizer[0] a few years ago (shameless plug), and it was the perfect mix of retro gaming knowledge, low level hacking, and more modern programming and design. It can both be incredibly frustrating and rewarding figuring out how to modify a game into a way that is new and refreshing.

Doubtful, at least anytime soon. The diffusion of responsibility that large organizations bring enables the organization to act however unethically it wants in pursuit of its goals without anyone feeling responsible for it. Clandestine "we have to stop this instance when it becomes known" torture is still better than "everyone winks and nods and the program goes on" torture though.

Donenfeld has been great and makes a wonderful product. We've been using WireGuard as our primary VPN solution for a long time now and don't anticipate a change anytime soon.

I think this class of attack can best be mitigated at the kernel level, but unfortunately, side-channels exist anywhere that maintains state, and this might be a more general routing problem.
This is a _great_ read with extremely clear breakdowns of what are clearly complex bugs.

* Allow things people need day to day near where they live: https://www.strongtowns.org/journal/2018/2/6/complete-neighb... - if they still have to drive, it won't be as far, and more people will be able to walk and bike.
What’s your source on Amazon using sales data to stifle competitors? I’ve read this claim a lot but haven’t seen any clear evidence.

What prevents these folks who fund all the unicorns from starting their own Amazon competitor? You made a pretty bold claim that nobody can compete with Amazon, but it’s not even clear how anyone is forced to use Amazon or sell on its website.

Literally nothing prevents you from standing up your own website and selling items. Consumers in most of the US can decide for or against shopping on Amazon, although many rural places have no options at all other than WalMart or Dollar General in terms of physical stores.

There’s literally nothing Amazon offers that you can’t get from a competitor, and often times at a better price in my experience.
normal UK businesses have to pay more like 30% of their income in tax

UK corporation tax rate is 19%.

USA corporation tax rate is 21%. Pushed down partly due to low tax competition from the rest of the world, i.e. places like the UK.

Facebook pay little corporation tax in the UK because it isn't a British company. It's an American company. It was created in America. Most of its employees are there. Its headquarters are there.

The EU works the same way. Corporate taxes are levied where the company is headquartered. It's arbitrary but all other ways to try and divvy up something inherently multi-national are even more arbitrary.

I am British myself and I really don't understand why my fellow Brits have such a hard time understanding this - foreign companies pay little UK tax on profits because they are foreign. They were not made in Britain. If Facebook had been formed in the UK then for sure, most of its corporation tax would be paid to the Exchequer. But unfortunately it wasn't.

Also on this topic, the beta React lets you treat loading of both child components and or child data dependencies at a chosen level, bringing them in line with Error Boundaries.

I think going all on on components is very easy to reason about. Same direction React Router went with component based routing making it very easy to for example have:

- logged in user portal
- catch all errors and show a fallback UI
- lazy load child components by routes with fallback loader UI
- use a loader fallback potentially for data dependency too.

I mean, it's not perfect and I can see issues people are mentioning, but it feels pretty good to develop with.

Add to this styled components and everything is so component based it's really nice. One main paradigm for the whole front-end.

I don't think it's the best thing ever, but I've enjoyed the newer approaches when working with them.
