Nothing. Nothing happens. You may get an in-person visit, and if you blow them off, nothing also happens.

My impression is that Europeans generally don't know what real severe weather is like. A hurricane that happens to hit close to a population center while it has a strong eyewall is incredibly devastating. Think of it like a tsunami, windstorm, and a family of tornadoes all at the same time.

The wind will knock down trees which crash into houses, block roads, and take down power lines. That alone means most of your human infrastructure is gone. Ambulances cannot reach you, you cannot get out, it's dark, communication technology stops working, you may be overheating without air conditioning, food quickly starts spoiling.

I lived in Orlando when Hurricane Charley hit. Thousands of giant live oak trees were blown over. The drive from my house to my girlfriend's normally took ten minutes. After the hurricane, it took me over an hour to get there because I had to contend with billboards in the road, downed power lines, and enormous trees blocking roads everywhere. Many places were simply inaccessible.

If you are close to the coast, add a storm surge to that. Mass flooding surges through neighborhoods. A tide of opaque, dirty, water containing all manner of dangerous debris. Roads are washed away, houses collapse. People drown. During Hurricane Katrina, a common failure mode was people who climbed into their attic to escape the rising floodwaters, only to get trapped in there and drown when the water level reached the attic itself. (Since then, New Orleanians learned not to go into your attic during a flood unless you bring an axe to chop through the roof.)

Most hurricanes are not this bad. They lose energy quickly when they make landfall and their strength diminishes with distance from the center. But there are half a dozen hurricanes every year and when you throw that many darts at the Gulf coast, eventually some of them will hit.
You could probably consider the British royal family a business.

No. He made himself available for questioning already in Sweden, and asked the authorities whether they need him for it or he can leave.

Also, he made himself available for questioning in a place where he would not be in danger of persecution by US and/or UK authorities - which is quite fair.

I don't know what the facts are regarding whether e-cigarettes are some kind of "gateway" to real ones. It doesn't seem realistic to me but it's the kind of thing that should be studied properly before jumping to conclusions.

Having said that, the concept does seem very strange to me as someone who used to smoke and switched to vaping because it's better in every way. It tastes better (with so much more variety in flavors), it's not as harsh on your throat and it doesn't leave an embarrassing odor on your body that non-smokers will judge you for.

The only reasonable conclusion I personally could come to is that people are more likely to switch from smoking to vaping and very rarely the other way around.

Again, this isn't scientific. Also, kids shouldn't vape or smoke. Period.

_But_, if they do vape and get addicted to nicotine at a young age, I personally find it preposterous that they would switch to cigarettes for their nicotine in large numbers.
... but it's worth considering that this is a 'question' from 2010. Just saying...

That's... exactly the use case we were thinking about! We've been using Voice Memos to record song bits / mouth beats, and hopefully this is the better / smarter version of that.

Chops does support multiple instruments at a time -- right now, you can layer many drum and audio tracks (drum tracks play built in drum samples, while audio tracks are those that you record using your phone's microphone).

The app is MIDI-based, but it cannot trigger external software/hardware devices at this time. This is something that's on the roadmap!

Indeed. They are killing cross-platform engine development for indies.

I don't even get mad now if an indie dev like you decides to ditch OpenGL, macOS and Linux and go for D3D. Steam Proton and DXVK can probably take care of the rest unless the code does something too fancy.

Appreciate your feedback, but we solicited and received feedback from many, MANY sources. UserVoice, Stack Overflow, Github Issues, customer interviews, email, Twitter, comments after speaking at events, comments from customers at booths at OSCON, Build, Ignite, JSConf, PyCon, etc. to name just a few.

We received an OVERWHELMING number of asks for unicode text support. Emoji are simply one class of unicode glyph but they're pretty important for those working with tools/scripts that use emoji to indicate the state or outcome of an operation.

Further, many users speak non-Latin languages which require non-ASCII glyphs, some of which can be quite challenging to support in a grid-based display format (e.g. Arabic, Hebrew).

This whole class of asks around "Unicode Support" required not just a brand new renderer that could actually draw the correct glyph in the correct cell, but also a whole new way of storing, iterating, and navigating variable-width code-points qucikly and efficiently.

These asks (and many others like them) vastly outnumbered asks for mouse support.

Not associated with gitlab or employment law in any way, but employers in my country may not ask if you intend to have kids. The reasoning is that will be less likely to hire people that will be absent on parental leave, have more sick days, won't be as likely to do overtime, etc.
You're definitely not the first to think of this. I know of a couple of people have done sentiment analysis on r/wsb over the years. I've thought about doing it myself. But, doubt it'd be worth much other than a fun exercise.
Is your billing address California, IP access from California, or both? I heard Cali subscribers do have the ability to cancel, but not sure what the access method is.

I have no doubt in my mind that mildly increased barriers to unsubscribe will increase retention. People are lazy, and if you want to end your subscription but the options are “call a number/write an email” vs “read an article (justify your subscription)”/“ignore the problem”, then enough of a subset will stay subscribed to make this a valid business decision.

If this makes some subscribers angry, it’s an indication that they were going to subscribe anyway so why care?

The only path forward is the California route (widespread explicit regulation)
I wouldn't want to degenerate this into the morals part behind this, but I do wonder how you feel about this now looking back: To be +ve you had to exist in a world watching people go -ve, in a very direct way.

Unfortunately, governments do indeed steal stuff all the time. That's why it needs to be as hyper-local as possible and why citizens should own military-grade arms. I think our arguments are jousting without clashing, so to speak, because I'm making a principled point rather than a pragmatic one.
There was a gym chain in Australia call Fitness First that was kind of famous for this BS. You had to go to 'head office' to cancel, then head office would bounce you to your local gym etc etc.

It so severely damaged the brand that the company publicly apologized and fixed it. But there's a glut of gyms so competition may have played it's part - I'm a lot more likely to sign up for something if I know I can pull out easily.
With the topic of "exceptional access" in the news again, I thought HN might be interested in this work that we did a couple of years ago.

The idea is, you can have my decryption key as long as you're willing to spend a million dollars to get it. Not willing to spend the money? Then it must not be so important after all.

NOTE: We are NOT hoping to get something like this deployed. This is a research project. Just trying to get the ball rolling on finding a way to satisfy government demands while maintaining as much security as possible, with as strong protections as we can come up with to limit misuse. I'm afraid that, sooner or later, we're going to need it.
Surely you must realize that there are many different kinds of gaming. When people talk about gaming, they are referring to all of them in general, which require 32-bit support and OpenGL support at the minimum. They are not talking only about your niche use case.

In other words, if I only play Nethack on the terminal, do you think it is proper that I tell you I can game on macOS, and that you shouldn't be complaining about 64-bit DOSBox?
Oh for sure, we have those laws too and I'm definitely aware of them. I guess my question has existing employees baked in mind. An existing employee who wants to move to a higher COL environment seemingly has to go through a process that existing employees who are expecting a child don't, even though having a child dramatically changes the day to day expenses of living for a household. Or at least, that is a situation that isn't discussed in the handbook.

I could have clarified that inquiry a bit better, me thinks.
Your argument is that vape using teenagers were unlikely to have smoked. I think it's hard to tell if vaping is diverting teenagers who otherwise would have smoked, or simply creating a new habit.

There are some intertwingled effects where increased vape use (and decreased smoker population) might be contributing to the unfashionability of smoking, both among teenagers and in society at large.

Perhaps we could compare teenage smoking rates in countries where e-cigarettes are banned / unavailable versus countries where they are available. I don't have this data or any studies to point to, but I would be interested to know more.
But that’s the problem. When you say you could just build new clean energy sources for these things, you’d be better off by only doing that.

Every kWh of clean energy produced is far more effective at addressing climate change when it replaces a kWh generated by fossil fuel than it is trying to remove the carbon from that fossil fuel after the fact.
They might call this "caching" but it's still a memory leak. Over time, the application consumes increasing amounts of a finite global resource while not appreciably advancing its own progress, and negatively affecting the whole system. That's a memory leak.

The solution is for operating systems to inject deliberate back pressure on memory allocations for user-selectable applications to stop them from behaving this way. "No memory for you. Try mallocing smaller chunk. Maybe I grant; maybe I don't. Maybe I just kill -9 you if you bug me too much." This is exactly how I wish my OS would treat web browsers.
I had no idea about the difference - interesting. I thought nicotine itself was a carcinogen though?
> I can give some tips on what I think is good inexpensive food to get in case anyone is interested.

I'm interested! I've mostly heard of canned foods and the military-style rations / dried meals that last many years (although those are actually a bit pricey, I think).
How is this relevant to the article? What you're saying is totally defensible with regards to second hand smoke.

Vapor is not smoke. Full stop.

Furthermore, this very article dispells the misconception that second hand vaping is an issue.

Apologies if you're just merely presenting your views on a related subject, but based on the context, it does seem you're mistakenly equating second hand smoke with second hand vapor.

Im all-in on hard problems, but the startup echo system isn't. I have to self fund because I don't think there is funding available for projects that take time and don't have a fast ROI. To guild the kid of things that can disrupt the really big players: FAANG, big oil, Detroit, Boeing you need more time and need to solve harder problems. I find it curious that Elon Musk is such a hero in the startup world, when his companies had to be self funded for a long time because VCs don't want to invest in that kind of bets.
> Advancements either good or bad were never made by playing it safe and following the rules

What important advancement in science or technology do you know that was illegal at the time? I can't think of even one of the top of my head.

There were lots of secret technologies, like Turing's research, but it would not have been illegal if it had been carried out in the open, it was just a state secret.

As a former smoker, friends with other former smokers we have joked, in full black-humour sense, that the best way out of the smoking mess, is to reduce the cost of cigarettes for the old cohort who smoke, and let them die rapidly so the public health costs are a blip in the overall curve.

The problem is the young cohort. I guess if we let vape companies sell Disney branded pink princess vape kits, we might keep kids out of smoking, and so this really is a blip and we can continue our black-humour approach to public health and end-of-life statistics.

The people infected in Hubei are at about 60k or so now. Actually slightly lower. Were you trying to say something else??

60k is pretty impressive considering all the other apocalyptic "worse case" scenarios being published in various academic journals a few weeks ago based on "conservative models".

You don't have to go to the gym to exercise. Plenty of bodyweight exercise (like push-ups, L-sits, planks, burpees, etc) can be done at home without any equipment.

Investing in a little bit of equipment, like barbells or maybe a pull-up bar, can let you do even more exercise at home.

Well, it depends on the use case. At Netflix for example, it was the outliers that were interesting. There aren't many 2011 LG TVs out there, but if they were all consistently failing, that would be something we'd want to call out.

Even every 2011 LG TV failing at once falls below the noise floor, unless you're specifically looking for it.

But if your are specifically looking for outliers, than a single bad actor can really mess up your day.
Concerns are not separated in the first place. Your CSS is heavily tied to the structure of your HTML and you even need to artificially think up structures to be able to write and apply the CSS. I recommend reading Adams blog post on the topic.

Regarding style attribute. You can’t do responsive-ness, hover- or focus-states in style attributes.

It’s hard to compare to bootstrap and the like because they give you components, while Tailwind is just a different way of writing CSS. You can of course extract components, btw, and define stuff like text-primary (that you can change in a central variable).
