On the other hand, most other photos are copyright by the person who took the photo. However, in those cases, it was a camera that took the photo, not a human. The camera contained a digital computer that executed code (not even written by the photographer in this case!) in order to produce a series of values stored on digital media. All the human did was push a button to tell it to go.

There is also a long history of generative art and as far as I know, the author of the code retains full copyright to the works produced by the program.

Open tabs = bookmarks for unread stuff, basically. Once I’m done, optionally bookmark it if necessary and close the tab.

The problem with bookmarks is my list of bookmarks eventually grows even larger than my open tabs, far larger, and stuff just gets lost in there. Once out of site, then out of mind. Leaving it open in a tab I’m more likely to go back and read it when I have time.
> That's an overreaching interpretation of what I wrote.

That's a fair point. I'm extrapolating a bit from many other people I know, including nominal Christians and Catholics and my past self.

> One can pursue the truth without declaring everything else as worthless. Plus, I dispute the idea that "non-authentic" mysteries can't convey truth.

I agree, which is why I said that the allure of the character of _why (and Mary Poppins and Willie Wonka) is actually a shadow of Jesus, pointing to Him. But trivial pursuits for their own sake are too common, leading people to stop halfway through the journey to Truth because they're satisfied with an illusion. This is the tragedy I lament on HN in general and this thread in particular.

If you enjoyed him, you'll enjoy Fulton Sheen too I suspect. The most thought provoking philosopher of the 20th century. Also, I have a friend who was convinced of becoming Christian by CK Chesterton but stopped short of Catholicism. Reminds me of CS Lewis and JRR Tolkien.

This is not “instant”, but 1 hour is much better than 1 day.

Sure but trade is two way. The EU won't have a deal either. They want to continue selling cars, food, and everything else. The only thing with no deal being on the table is the UK being able to walk away, as a type of mutually assured destruction, rather than having to accept any deal offered by the EU.

Both Monzo and Starling are good. If you're good at budgeting and never dip into negative balances I suggest getting a cashback or points credit card too, and then you can simply put your income into an instant savings account until you need it for the monthly direct debit to pay off your credit card and earn interest _and_ cashback/points.
I've been using Monese since I moved here ~2.5 years ago. It was great as I was able to open the account in the weeks _before_ moving over, and thus already had a ready to go payment card & UK Bank Account when I arrived!

considerable push-back from people who benefit from the current regulatory structure

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulatory_capture
I can tell you that, in Italy, there is not a "standard", in the sense that not all banks are the same, and often one that excels in something is terrible in another aspect.

With home-banking these differences are even more marked, some sites have "reasonable" possibilities offered to the customer, some other have next to none (besides checking your account) some have relatively simple workflows some other are so stupidly complex that you give up.

More or less all of them (the sites) have an inane amount of meaningless dashboard/graphics, and very poor tools (as an example to download some data).

However, when it comes to "serious" matters things are seemingly "random" in the way they change from bank to bank, personal anecdata, a few years ago when an old relative died, to access the accounts it took the heirs (with exactly the SAME documentation):

Bank #1: 3 days <- exceptionally fast

Bank #2: 10 days <- I would say "appropriate" or "logical"

Bank #3: 7 months (or 210 days) <- completely "crazy"

Yeah, the former is really good.

Sure, it'd be better if the courses were free. But are you going to spend two years teaching computer science without pay? I'm not going to, and I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that most people won't either.
They have a little bit at the top claiming that it's newsworthy because they had access to a complete internal history which is rarely declassified. Okay. I'll buy that. And at the end, they mention a good article from the Baltimore Sun that is MORE THAN 20 YEARS OLD! But that's at the end.

Along the way, I wouldn't blame any reader for assuming that this is entirely new information.

The US is a country, not everything directly benefits everyone - the NEH and NEA actually do funnel quite a bit of money into the center of the country, but their funding is lopsided toward urban centers because those are the locations that attract and can sustain artists. But, tomorrow, someone from LA can head to NY, become an artist, and work on qualifying for a grant - they can secure a grant where they are if they can demonstrate their research topic and get in contact with the NEH.

FYI, if you're switching to Firefox, I strongly (strongly) recommend checking out the Tree Style Tab extension (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tree-style-ta...), which puts all your tabs in a tree in a sidebar. Once you have it installed and are happy with it, you can remove the horizontal tab bar entirely and gain a nice chunk of precious vertical space (https://github.com/piroor/treestyletab/wiki/Code-snippets-fo...).

I use a slightly more compact layout that saves space and lets me see more tabs; put this in "Advanced->Extra style rules" in the addon preferences:

/* Compact tab layout */
:root { --tab-height: 20px !important; }
.tab { height: 20px !important; }
/* Shrink space between pinned tabs and tab bar, only when pins are present */
#tabbar[style*="margin"] { margin-top: 20px !important; }

I've used this extension for nearly a decade at this point, and I could never imagine switching back to a top tab bar. It scales very nicely to an arbitrary number of tabs, organizes them in a highly natural way, and gives you a bunch of new power-user ways to manage your tabs (close a whole tree, migrate subtrees to new windows, ...).

I’ve been a developer for about 8 years now and have even already learned a decent amount of Swift.

I still had a blast getting the adorable character (Byte-) to navigate around the puzzles.

They even get into some simple yet cool path traversal algorithms that I’m sure grow in complexity if you keep going.

I’m going to download these and have a lot of fun with them.

Would love to see this kind of paradigm evolve into more complex domains.
Finally! I’ve been waiting for them to do this.

Exactly. The piece does give a hat tip to the good article written by their rival, the Baltimore SUN, more than 20 years ago. But that's buried near the bottom.
I, for one, don't want this. At all. Taking a look at my screen right now, there are probably close to a hundred or so icons in various applications visible on my desktop.

I got my paycheck paid into my monzo. They don't require a proof of address, so I was able to open an account from my hotel room and have my card sent to my new workplace before I had my own flat.
I don't think it's simply marketing purposes. They actually try to make a different and impact. On .ORG they filed an official complaint with ICANN because they could as a registrar. Their CEO has been in the domain industry I think over two decades now and actually cares about it. What's good for consumers buying domains is good for NameCheap I'm sure.
Fortunately/unfortunately (hard to tell which), the answer for 'how to get Firefox to thrive and grow' might basically be to spend more money on ads, since Google Chrome was advertised everywhere in its early days. At one point, they were running TV commercials and putting ads on billboards at stations here in the UK.

That probably got a lot of people's attention.
I moved to Monzo as soon as they got a banking license and wouldn’t want to go back to an old bank with branches. Not only is their tech terrible but someone’s got to pay for all those buildings and people.

From what I see, nothing prevents N26 to continue operating until the end of the year in UK. So, they could have given a 3 or 6 months notice at least to their user.
I'm not in UK, but because of actions like this, I'm more than encouraged to not be confident with them and not use this as a "primary account".

While I haven't looked at how well embedded batteries are these days, I doubt most of them are soldered into phones--but it certainly wouldn't surprise me. They're certainly not serviceable or easy to remove, and replacing parts can mean a large amount of disassembly and hoping you don't break something.

Compare this to my Pandigital novel 7, the first Android device I owned: the top half of the back slid up, and you could then unsnap the rest. The battery, internal storage, and other parts were immediately accessible and easy to replace. Admittedly, internal storage was easy because it was just a microsd card, but it made quadrupling the internal storage very easy. I played around with the insides multiple times until I killed it by breaking the socket for a ribbon connector. There was no need to remove glue, and iirc the adhesive was only sticky enough to stop things from sliding.

I would not mention it to my manager, although I may try to talk the team member into doing it himself.

The reason that I wouldn't do it is because I wouldn't be OK with violating the trust. Not only would it harm my relationship with that person, but it would signal to everyone else that I can't be trusted with sensitive information.

What I might do, though, is to try to engage in some knowledge transfer, to get that person to pass on the knowledge they have that makes the loss of them so devastating.
Be curious to hear the banks' names.
IMO the logical conclusion of current trend is people don't knowing each other, themselves, or what's in front of them. At first I wanted to add that some elites know everything about the majority, while being opaque to them, but on second thought that's utterly irrelevant in light of the fact that even the elite of the elite won't know their asses from their elbows. We'll die of thirst in an ocean of data, for want of information.

Do people not move in Italy or something?

I've encountered the same thing in Germany, when I log in I use the branch number of where we opened the account? Why? Who gives a shit about that? I certainly don't. But the bank does, for some unfathomable reason.

For each way German banks are better than American ones, it seems like there's a way in which they're backwards or overly conservative.

> Even with clean code, you will have technical debt because as the business evolves, your code becomes stale.

Suppose the ideal clean code base. There is of course no stale code there. In the event of new business requirements, it has been reconsidered carefully and rewritten to cover the new requirements in a way that's architecturally consistent. If that was impossible with some previous iteration of the architecture, the overall architecture has also been reconsidered and changed.

For your jQuery example, with unlimited resources available to address code smell, you'd of course either replace it with some existing higher level library that suits your use case, or you'd write your own high-level generalizations. I have seen a lot of code that was terrible not because they had unwieldy business requirements, but frankly because the code had poorly considered abstractions and unclear boundaries. Features were added without consideration for the architecture. Quick and dirty fixes were considered preferable to overhauls. Short term workarounds ended up being long term don't-touch-this-we're-not-sure-what-it's-doings. What worked at some thousand LOC became the guiding principle for further additions.

The real problem is that rewriting or cleaning up can become unbearable for some combinations of organization and code base. It takes time and can become an organizational hurdle if people are simultaneously implementing new features or fixing bugs. Every time a developer says "this will take several weeks to implement" and the project owner successfully insists that it can't, the code base gets dirtier. In the real world some PPM of fecal matter is acceptable because getting the last few particles out is going to increase the cost by an order of magnitude.
It's to the consumer's advantage to tell his buddy about how terrible such-and-such-an-airline's new cuts to foot room are and how he wouldn't fly and neither should anyone else.

How is that even possible? Beyond storing passwords unencrypted anywhere, why would you make a specific endpoint to return them.

Pure css is not comfortably maintennable. It lacks variables for example. That is massive shortcoming - inability to say that this color is same as that color. Or alternatively that this selector here is same as the one over there.

Also, even things like making stuff same height were absurdly difficult with css even absent browser differences. It is oddly inconsistent language with hard to remember rules.

And it often ends with house of card constructions that break the moment anything changes.
you're correct that this sort of persistent world modeling is needed for self driving cars, but from what I've heard from friends who work in the industry, both cruise and waymo have it. they're very far from using a plain CNN on their video cameras, they've got depth mapping and such and carefully constructed software making use of the perception data to model how the world will change and react to that. idk if it works well, but they definitely know they need it and are trying.

that said, I've driven a tesla on autopilot, and holy crap is was so incredibly bad. I'm optimistic about self driving cars in general, but not about tesla's. it will frequently lose track of the road lines at night and fail to make turns, suddenly beeping at you that you're in control now, with no warning! I only ever used it like cruise control, but I can't understand how anyone driving a tesla would dare use the tricks that allow bypassing the restrictions that prevent taking your hands off the wheel.
I will try to link to this explanation for situations I come across in the future. It's very well argued.

Really, as a pure outsider, I think anytime you redo a vote on something like this as many times as they did you increase the odds of success (leaving the EU) to 1.

This refers to self-hosted / diy tools: you have to do them all up-front. Most SaaS don't require configs or deep-learning compare to FOSS. Self-Hosted/DIY tools also require future migration. Especially when the self-hosted/DIY tools did not capture future requirements due to limited vision.
