Facebook doesn't say exactly what they are seeking, but that is one possibility. However, this PR piece seems to be accusing Namecheap of doing wrong- and it appears that Namecheap is entirely in the right. If all Facebook was doing was seeking control of the domain name, and they didn't make this accusatory post, I would agree that they were following the proper process.

The point of UBI is not to fund people's vanity adventures in education. It's to support people who would otherwise be starving or homeless without a job.

Regarding "sickness", the severity is important to know. If UBI enables people with slight depression issues to just give up working entirely, UBI could be entirely counterproductive by accelerating depression's spirals of inactivity.

And this completely ignored the issue of inflation that comes with society wide UBI.

The whole notion of UBI is nonsense. Rather than throwing money at people to spend on broken institutions like Education and Healthcare, let's reform these institutions in the first place to make them more affordable and effective.
You clearly understood one of the primary incentives that drives k8s adoption (career self-interest).

> A year after you release v1.0.0 (which you say is a tag), a customer reports a bug in it. They don't want a breaking upgrade to v9.13.0. They want to pay for v1.0.1 (aka "hotfix").

> But you can't open a PR against a tag v1.0.0. Hence you discover that v1.0 should be a branch, and both v1.0.0 and v1.0.1 tags. This way you can open a PR against v1.0 and easily create v1.0.1, v1.0.2, etc.

So you could just `git checkout v1.0.0; git checkout -b v1.0`, commit your hotfix and deploy v1.0.1.

> Another problem. You are at "master" and approach v13.0.0. But there are numerous bugs to fix before you release. Testing takes >24 hours. You choose to work on bugs on a branch (v13.0) this way master can proceed with new features and not be feature-frozen for days or weeks.

Or you could use topic branches for new features, and fix bugs on master at the same time.

> Another problem. Your CI is deficient in that it allows merging and cloning before it makes sure that previous merge produced good product. Puny as it is, it is the current industry standard. Thus your main branch becomes broken now and then. So you call it "develop" and only merge it to "master" what you are sure is a good product.

I don't understand your point here. Usually your CI builds a branch, runs some tests on the compiled product and makes sure the `master` branch is ok before deploying to staging or production.

Businesses are used to high turnover with lower paid employees. It's ok, though, because their jobs tend to be interchangeable and easy for someone new to get up to speed on.

The lose part is supporting people who would otherwise work and contribute to the economy. I don't know many people, but the fact that I personally know several that would not work if they didn't have to means that there are likely plenty of them.

> ?????

Everyone gets the UBI, not just people who don't work. If hypothetically fewer people were to work, more people wouldn't start receiving it because everybody gets it either way.

> Less time worked correlates with less things made.

In general this goes the other way. The history of progress is to make more stuff in less time. If people had more "disincentive to work" then companies would have to pay them more -- which increases the incentive for automation, which creates more stuff with less people working, which solves the problem.

This is also why your "disincentive to work" calculations are off. If you pay <1% of people a UBI, it's not going to affect wages. If you pay it to everyone and there is a "disincentive to work" then to get people to work, companies will have to pay more. Which creates a countervailing incentive to work that keeps people working. It also increases wages (and correspondingly spending), which increases the tax base, so there goes that too.

> So your UBI pays people a fixed percent of the tax base, not a dollar amount? So during a recession, those UBI people will get really screwed....

Taxes are (approximately) a percent of GDP, not a percent of the stock market. Have a look at the GDP graph:

https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/GDP

Difference from the height of the housing boom to the bottom of the crash was ~3%. Not a huge difference. And it was back to where it was at the height after one year. (Compare to ~50% drop for the Dow. The stock market is not the economy.)

“Pipe gun” - what a bunch of bullshit. It’s a discarded length of plastic pipe with a bit of electrical tape on one end. It’s a piece of trash.

The “bullet” they claim that they found nearby (not pictured) could have been discarded years ago. I’m sure they never tried to date how long it was in the soil there.

Basically they needed to arrest someone to save face for all the billable hours racked up investigating a hole in the ground.

TFA is an amazing story and very well written. I hope the author gets some recognition or award for it. I only wish they pursued the false charges harder, because this man needs to be freed and someone should be fired.

Not necessarily if you account for the fact that people's expenses increase as soon as their income increase. Before UBI, they might want certain type of hobbies, a certain type of house, etc, and after UBI the same people might want more expensive hobbies, a bigger house, and so on.
Even without UBI, many could choose less demanding jobs with more free time, lower salaries, and in less expensive cities, but they don't.

Very sobering.

If more companies follow Sequoia's advice and quickly decide to cut or postpone spending in anticipation of a potential slowdown, their vendors and employees will react by cutting or postponing their own spending, leading yet others to do the same, fueling a sudden and self-reinforcing feedback loop of global contraction in economic activity. Perhaps the stock market is pricing such a dire scenario.

That definitely explains why some drivers may feel angry/frustrated but note that it's not an excuse. Legally and morally speaking bikes have equal rights to the roads.

If those drivers drive around smaller/slower cars do they get equally frustrated/angry?

Even if they do, what gives them the right too get angry at other participants in traffic that are legally using the road?

As to why in the US a lot more bike commuters are also into recreational biking, it's because of a feedback loop created in combination with bad bike supporting infrastructure and urban planning: the current situation means that in many places commuters have to share the road with cars, which means that only those that really like bike riding and/or are comfortable with a high level of stress/risk do it which, as it happens, it overlaps largely with the traits of those that enjoy recreational biking. With a lot of these riders on the road drivers get a sense of "these bikers are enjoying themselves and annoying me at the same time so they don't deserve respect" which further reinforces the current situation.

I joke that my ancestors evolved for cold drizzle.

Exactly. IPFS has millions of end users and hundreds of apps storing data on the decentralized network, creating demand for decentralized persistence of that data. Current solution is to either run your own IPFS node or pay a pinning service to run a node persisting your IPFS data for you - but even better to have a highly resilient marketplace of storage nodes that can store redundant copies!

"The discovery of CSF is attributed to Emanuel
Swedenborg (1688-1772), who had graduated from
the University of Upsala, Sweden, with a degree in
mining and engineering (Fig. 1), Working as a
mining engineer, Swedenborg often came across an
underground stream of water that lead him to search
for its source. As a religious man and a teacher of
theology, he took upon himself to search for the seat
of the soul. His search for the soul brought him into
contact with anatomists in France, Germany, and
Italy. Having observed and participated in numerous
dissections between 1736 and 1740, he felt prepared
to engage in original medical investigations of the
brain, which seemed a likely seat of the soul."
