Income taxes, sure, but for a while nobody had to pay sales tax on out-of-state internet sales. I could see someone not realizing that had changed.

Theoretically they should have gotten good help from a CPA by then, but if it's a largely automated business and it suddenly skyrockets, it might be easy to just enjoy the money rolling in without taking it seriously enough.

Yes, the default installers from chip.de were embedding Cliqz and used malware distribution techniques to have Cliqz stealthily installed along with other software. The important part is that Chip and Cliqz are owned by the same parent company, Hubert Burda Media.

I wasn't referring to the official .NET Framework installer either that's shipped by Microsoft.
I find it curious that the volume of users are similar for day of the month regardless of year. For instance the first of the month is not always the same day of the week.

Hi there! Are you looking for a product manager who is obsessed with complex, unconventional problems and delivers results that set you apart from other competitors?

+3 years of product leadership, +5 of hands-on design, front-end development and digital marketing experience. Won UberPITCH 2017, and founded a remote start-up which created one of the fastest growing entertainment apps in my country of origin, with over one million installs, 110.00 reviews 4.6 average user score in one year.

Searching for exciting opportunities to create, innovate and thrive; particularly interested in the challenges themselves rather than title, seniority or compensation of the role. Generally Product Manager, Project Manager, Product Owner, Entrepreneur in Residence and Growth Hacker roles suit me by definition.

Please do feel free to contact me for brainstorming, chit-chatting or showing me your latest bizarre discovery. Looking forward!

No worries at all, I like to hear feedback from users, whether its positive or negative. Though, I also like to separate wheat from chaff, which is why I have suggestions / follow up questions, etc.

Assign endpoint is something that you can just do once. You could say, give me a million UIDs, and then use them however you want. You don't need to call it repeatedly.

Also, its an endpoint to Zero, not to Alpha. Zeros are not supposed to be directly talked to, in a running cluster. We're now doing work around exposing some of Zero endpoints via Alphas, in our GraphQL rewrite of the /admin endpoint. So, that might make it easier.

I think the consistent theme I'm hearing here is that our documentation isn't clear -- we aim to improve that. But, could use more critical, logical feedback / suggestions on our forum -- so please feel free to pitch in there.
The latter, of course. It's not even subtle, they've tried to tell us that you can do (almost) everything on a tablet ever since they announced the original iPad Pro. Then MS proved their point with the Surface, except they also proved people like to work with real keyboards. So now Apple are doing keyboards.

That's why I'm skeptical that we'll ever get an "Arm MBP". Apple would rather do away with laptops, they see them as annoying and expensive legacy that just happens to be unreplaceable at the moment. There is no point investing into a massive and bloody transition of a segment you are trying to divest from.
The truth about SEO is that it's still a thing because it works, despite Google's best efforts. Tech would be better off if it applied some of its infamous cynicism in Google's direction.

There are plenty of tricks, gimmicks, and zero-day hacks whose effect may be as short as a couple of hours, but indisputably, there are many SEO customers who see real increase in search rankings. That's why SEO is still a thing -- it works, at least enough of the time to make it a worthwhile risk.

If you ignore the business's desire to dominate Google results, then yeah, it's no surprise that someone eventually recognizes and attempts to fill the gap. It's best to address these inevitable interests directly so you don't get cut out from the process.
If you are lucky you can import old issues with the same IDs. If not then

This is why I generally prefer using the full issue URL in comments, but that is unwieldy for branch names.
Yeah it's annoying that you need to pay like a thousand bucks AND constant maintenance to have a joyful AND functional mode of conveyance that is so ridiculously simple compared to a car.

How would that make it easier to work with?
While all 3 examples of viruses given in the article do most likely come from forest animals this does not mean that they jumped to humans because of deforestation. The article uses a logical fallacy to further an agenda, as laudable an agenda as it might be.
My approach:

refage = ! git for-each-ref --format='%(committerdate:relative),%(authorname),%(refname)' --sort -committerdate | column -t -s ','

This will list all refs (including tags, so you might want to grep the output), their relative ages, and who the last commit author was, and then formats it nicely. This makes it easy to see how many branches there and how old they are, as well as who to contact to request deletion.
So weird. I'd never heard of 'Ornament and Crime' before this week when I saw a video on a eurorack synth module that was named Ornament and Crime. Now there's a post on HN about the essay in the same week.

Maybe the poster saw the same video I did.
I mean most programming languages put some sort of punctuation between names. Eg: function calls are punctuated by parens, imports are punctuated by `::` or `.`.

The same should happen for types.
I don't think that actually plots the 40M points, just aggregates them in Python and plots a small section of that data on the website?

Ah, but much like backdoors in encryption, a single exemption is all that is needed.

If journalists are exempt, suddenly we all become journalists.
The market still hasn't budged in used car pricing though. JD power's report from last week only showed a 2% decline in prices. Wonder if/when prices will actually be affected by this.
Here we have a single retailer for all the brands. One group owns most of the dealerships.

(which is some sort of regulatory problem probably, the point is that it is the status quo for there to be a dealership oligopoly in many areas)
This makes sense in aggregate. If you have 100 properties and raise the rent 10% on all of them and only close 5 locations... you're better off on average and actually just added additional rentable units to your inventory.

A lot of people bemoan cash for clunkers but it does a lot of the general level of safety and pollution on the road. A voluntary culling of select cars/trucks is generally good for the world.
Why on earth is this downvoted?

There are many “freedom” indices[1] that measure the rights afforded to individuals in each country. These indices are published and maintained by groups all along the political spectrum. They all include things like due process and free speech but I’ve yet to come across one that gives weight to an individual’s access to weapons.

The “Human Freedom Index”[2] published by the ultra-libertarian Koch-funded Cato Institute doesn’t even include it.

You're not wrong, but there are far better ways to redistribute wealth than mandating the use of rent-seeking middlemen. Why not levy a tax directly and cut out the middle man?
You're describing something that has been standard practice on HN for over a decade, and is well understood by this community—so much so that entire websites have been dedicated to tracking title changes on HN. If you want to know more about HN, it's easy to learn by using the search box that's at the bottom of every page, as well as the links (guidelines, FAQ, etc.) at the bottom of every page. Also we're happy to answer questions at hn@ycombinator.com, and HN users are happy to explain things to new users.

It's usually a good idea to take a little while to learn about the conventions of a community you've just joined before jumping into high drama. On the other hand, most new accounts that show up to complain about HN and its moderation are not really new users at all, but concern trolls—sturgeon of the second freshness: https://www.google.com/search?q=%22second+freshness%22&oq=%2....
That's what I'm curious about. With that margin I'd guess CPG with a re-branded product. Most retailers are lucky to see anything north of 50% gross margin. I would have imagined a drop shipper having closer to 20%.
What Do Famous People’s Bookshelves Reveal?
It's this time of the year again :) Too bad that the Hannover Messe (Hanover Fair) was cancelled. Festo has usually displayed amazing things there.

There are others by the way. Some names I remember are AquaJelly, Smartbird and there was also a butterfly if I recall correctly. Look for "Festo" and "Bionic" on Youtube if you are curious.

Really great magazine, my wife used to have a subscription and it was consistently readable and fascinating to an 'educated layman' (maths and computing degree but no real physics knowledge beyond reading a bit and doing it at school).
It really isn’t. APFS has excellent support for logical volumes, and it’s barely any harder than creating a new folder.

(Each volume can also use an extra encryption layer if you want, which can be super useful.)

This is exactly why it's so popular.
One of the articles that you’re citing (#3) had a correction due to a statistical error and they are now citing a ~25% mortality, not dissimilar to our data.

Theirs and ours may end up higher than they are now once the final patient is discharged, but the current US numbers are more like 20-25% mortality on ventilators at this point rather than 85%.
> I've since learned not to assume, and explicitly ask "Do you use source code control?"

So did I, but when they told me "Yes", it often turned out to mean "Yes, but only in a few departments; not the one you will be working at", and in one case "Yes, but we only use it as a backup system for the completed project, not during development".

Asking the right questions is important, but it's only half of success; the other half is getting truthful and non-misleading answers.
Run | Senior Software Engineer | Los Angeles | Remote

A venture-backed stealth start-up. Run is building a platform to power the next-generation of apps, games, and digital property, where users own their data, and apps can safely build upon each other's code. Throw out what you might know: our approach is novel.

We're looking to hire our first engineer to build out several backend services in JS and Rust. The role will also involve designing new APIs and protocols, solving new scaling challenges, becoming an expert in blockchains, cryptography, and code sandboxing. There will be R&D. You must be curious and insanely good at something related. No blockchain experience required. Backend experience at scale desired.

If this is you, please get in touch: careers@runonbitcoin.com
> And the justices will point out that journalism predates end-to-end encryption

When do you think cryptography and end-to-end encryption specifically was invented? I think you're likely to be thousands of years out.
I make a branch named 'feature/ABC-123', do some work, and push to the server. You want to take over my branch so you do a fetch then run the command 'git checkout feature/abc-123'. You will check out my branch, but when you go to push back to the server you're going to be push a new branch with a lower case file name unless you realize what has happened and know that you need to run 'git push origin feature/abc-123:feature/ABC-123' to push your changes to the existing remote branch.
> Apple would have to have all the support chipset as well.

Hasn't Apple been pretty obviously moving in that direction? Their T2 chip does a lot. Given how Intel doesn't let third-parties make alternatives to their own southbridge chipsets any more (a change that screwed Apple's product strategy at the time), there's not much more that Apple could move into the T2 until they're ready to abandon Intel CPUs, too.
People love food, but eating out at restaurants to the extent that happens in the modern world is a historical aberration. It’s not just other restos you’re competing with but a home-cooked meal too.

I get the sense from the tone taken here that this owner is going to be in trouble down the line. It’s good to be passionate but their objectivity is clouded. The restaurant with the really expensive donair is indeed likely to find itself in trouble ...
All Tesla vehicles have logging and telemetry capabilities (unless rooted by an owner). When a New York Times reporter (John Broder) fabricated a story about a Model S running out of power prematurely on a test drive [1], Tesla provided the logs publicly. I assume Tesla has the logs for the VIN provided to the EPA for an emissions test cycle, and hope they’re representing the situation appropriately based on their logging data.

Someone is lying! We’ll discover who it is shortly.

Disclaimer: Tesla owner, investor, etc

It was an antitrust lawsuit by the government in 1938 that brought this about, not legislation.
My second job out of college, back in 2011, was as the only employee for a drop-shipper who sold fabric for upholstery, lighting, and all kinds of home furnishings. Her website was an off the shelf .NET ecommerce app she probably paid a few thousand for. I was the customer service rep and web dev for the company. She did surprisingly well, grossing $120-160k a month. Her margin was around 20% I believe. I made a pretty small salary but it was a great way to kickstart my dev career.

Edit: For clarity.

Square Capital | Mid/Senior Engineer (Finance/Accounting background preferred) | SF, NYC, Atl | squareup.com/capital

We are the Capital Platform Financing team at Square! We build the platforms that power $2+ billion in small businesses loans for Square sellers and some external partners. Right now we’re working on getting loans out as part of the Paycheck Protection Program in the recent stimulus bill, it’s really cool to get to help keep these small businesses alive while the world kind of melts own around them. We’re looking to add another senior engineer to the team who can be focused on (but not exclusively work on) our accounting systems.

We are mainly a Ruby shop but prior Ruby experience is not a requirement.

Another programming language for education: https://easylang.online/ide/
Your words sound like the description of linux around 2000.

or the arguments against an operating system in C instead of assembler years before that.

The licensing terms are what make risc-v interesting and the technical arguments won't stand the test of time.
That sounds like an online utopia, almost like the feeling of discovering the joy of the internet again. I want that too.
I would rephrase this as “the solution can be as simple as your model of the problem but no simpler.” A better model, structure, implementation, or restatement of the problem could transform the dimensions of the problem space radically.

But I do agree with you in spirit of what you said, that there is some essential “hardness” of the problem that is part-and-parcel with the difficulty in stating or explaining the problem. I see a similar complexity in representing the problem in code or functions or algorithms etc. Then comes a related issue with reducibility; some concepts or problems cannot be broken down into smaller discrete parts. They are already as simple as they can be. This is ideal in a certain sense, in that the concepts can be explored with fewer assumptions. However when someone asks you to explain like they’re 5 years old, interpretation and perception starts to creep in through intuitions and abstractions.
Congrats the on beta! Just a quick question though. Seems like in the about page, you guys mention that the "platform leverages machine learning". How do Tara leverage ML? From the landing page, it was hard to see any features relevant to ML.

Thanks
