There's also plenty of room for art in the choice of materials and colours as well as the shapes of buildings. Likewise, with code, if you limit yourself to only what one person can do, you'll end up with a very constrained view of what "art" means.

Did I ever explicitly say the US in my comment? No. However, the entire case against Microsoft was built on its anticompetitive practices against Netscape. And Microsoft lost.

In the US, "The proposed settlement required Microsoft to share its application programming interfaces with third-party companies and appoint a panel of three people who would have full access to Microsoft's systems, records, and source code for five years in order to ensure compliance."

By having full access to the API, MS could no longer give IE special privileges (for example, being the only default browser choice when a link is clicked to be opened). At any rate, it's not a stretch to imagine similar movements towards Apple's app store. The parallels are quite similar.
But the guy in original story I responded to had one specific concrete reason - if it is racism then solution does not help me. And I was supposed to find that understandable.

I was respousing to that particular logic of that particular guy who was much less reasonable then he believed himself. I was not responding to all the possible reasons of all the people in the world.
I created belgianbrewed.com ( fully custom). It's a lot of work, even less obvious things like E-commerce filters.

Tax is hard depending on the country, eg. For Belgium/Europe it's pretty easy. = Tax calculated in the country of residence only.

There are plenty of alternatives beyond woocommerce/Magento. I use woocommerce for another one, but it requires some maintenance.

Just make sure you can easily extend it.

“Decentralized”?

I agree with you that Linux development is weird compared to most places. Most places have a designated central repo that acts as the source of truth, whereas the Linux developers don’t really have this.

This is possibly an unpopular opinion, but I think that when there is an official main repo, git is far more complicated than it needs to be. It’s confusing to a lot of developers because of all this unnecessary complexity. Most teams could probably be served better by a simpler system.
The most obvious explanation seems to be that no-one sent him the money - it was his own savings.

From what I can tell, there is no actual evidence linking this to RCMP at the moment, except an anonymous source's opinion.

I'm with OP that this is very thin. Maybe they have more that they can't publish, so are confident to go out on a limb, but based on just this article I'm unconvinced.
What is unwieldy about hex strings? If you'd want to solve this perhaps a prefix would be easier?
I was working once in a product company with big customer support section. There was almost zero communication between product and support. We never received any info about what problems customers were facing, and never were asked to provide technical support for the app we built.
Not offer their market freely, but make it competitive, yes.
If you’re U.S. based you may have free access to the NYT and other paywall ed news sources through your library.

LinearTypes guarantee that all values are used exactly once if the result is used exactly once. If an exception is thrown, the result won't be used once and the memory would leak.

One cheap way is to also track the memory with the GC. This is similar to using GC finalizers on file handles - closing handles via GC is inefficient and slow but it's only the last resort.

Another option is to use exception handlers to guarantee that the Ressource is freed. Either one handler per Ressource which destroys all advantages of linear types, or one handler in total and some mutable memory to track the still open resources.
There is no way, full stop, that the USA can track random trucks in China. Even if they could, of course they have nuke-hardened storage - we call them "mountains". And that's 15 we know about, who knows how many more there really are. My understanding is that the PLAN subs absolutely could strike the US. And it goes without saying that US forces in SK, Okinawa and Guam would be utterly obliterated.

But all of this is ridiculous. Yes of course the USA has more warheads. They could indeed cause catastrophic destruction in China. No-one said they couldn't. The point is that China can and would counter-strike, with devastating results. This is the whole point of nuclear deterrence. No-one believes they couldn't, except apparently you with your completely unrealistic fantasies about the USA's godlike superiority. The USA as you know it would be gone.

And you somehow believe the USA would trigger this frigging holocaust to protect its image, or the US Dollar? What Dollar? The Fed's a smoking crater. Just delusional.

As always the answer is some synthesis of the many viewpoints.

Above-ground routes are much easier (thus cheaper) to adapt and change. Connecting outer-suburbs to an existing underground network is extremely difficult, it takes decades. It's hard to increase the capacity of existing networks. Not to say they aren't useful, but increasing capacity with above-ground cycle networks is much easier.

Encouraging people to cycle for shorter journeys further frees up capacity for longer trips where trains make more sense.

Roads as they are currently massively favour cars, to an unacceptable degree. I would cycle where I am if it didn't substantially increase my risk of death.
Definitely not true on my system. There is a flash of some reorganization of the windows content that Chromium does not do, but both windows open instantly.

And also: Come on, that wouldn't make a browser slow. Users open new windows once when starting the browser. The rest is about how fast they render pages, react to JS workloads, and maybe how fast they open tabs. FF is more than on par in all of this.
Backup codes and use of Authy (running on phone and desktop), instead of Google Authenticator, can help in such situations.
>It doesn't even make sense,

It starts to make sense once you know how nuclear EMP attack works. The detonation would happen high in the space (400 km) and would not cause direct effects or radiation on the earth.

EMP pulse in a continent wide nuclear EMP attack is not coming from the nuclear detonation directly. It comes from synchrotron radiation when free electrons in upper atmosphere interact with earths magnetic field
It's insane, that there isn't one already.

On the contrary, it's necessary if corporations can operate internationally and transfer money untaxably between jurisdictions, otherwise the global effective tax rate is that of the lowest country.

Ask HN: Google won't remove my site URL from random business using it on Maps
Hello HN,
I have a personal CS blog named X. When you search for X on google, on the right side, it will show a business located somewhere, with that very same name X. This business is for helping people for computer problems. They're even showing my website url.

If you search for the X business name on official channels, it doesn't exists obviously. I've tried to have at least my website removed from the listing, but fun fact my removal request is handled by the listing owner itself. I've contacted Google directly, the answer was along the lines of the following:

> We don't care if the business is using your website name and your url, we are just showing information. If you want to get the website removed please contact the owner of that listing.

What makes me angry is that I legally hold the mark name in europe. It's possible to check my name on the whois of that website. And there is no way for me to get that sh*t removed.
What's also incredible, is that people will need to do all the verification crap for singing on adsense, but everyone can put every website in the listing with no verification and no one can't do anything about that.

What is even worst is that business will be associated with myself, and my users might call that business thinking to be speaking with me. And a business showing false information doesn't seems a business to trust. I've also explicitly talked about this, but Google didn't care.

Please HN. Tell me what to do.
We usually sync out of hours on-call with the "handle requests from outside the team" so that while you're at work you're the same person, everyone in the company knows to go to a specific slack room for these requests to our team, or they can straight up create a "change request" ticket in our jira board if the request can be done few hours/days later.

Usually there's nothing (in almost 4 years I think less than 5) that goes across weeks that's still in progress. We have a very low volume of actual incidents, and external requests that are sizeable enough get turned into actual prioritised stories by the next planning.
Yeah, it's a steely gray, like the clouds it seems to boom from.

Isn't that more of an evolutionary trait than a unique disorder/neurodiverse trait? Seems like grey = loud sounds = fear would increase survivability. Synesthesia is typically diagnosed as a seemingly illogical pairing between different sensory experiences. Thunder being a dark color is logical.

Never attribute to malice what can just as easily be attributed to incompetence (or convenient indifference, as the case may be).
Here's the whole bill it was attached to, it's very long: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telecommunications_Act_of_19...

Note the original TCA created the FCC. That entire bill was packed with legislation to regulate cable and phone companies as well as providers of internet services...ergo utility.

Section 230 was developed in response to a pair of lawsuits against Internet service providers in the early 1990s that had different interpretations of whether the service providers should be treated as publishers or distributors of content created by its users.

Note, it is my strong opinion that Twitter selectively fact checking and blocking tweets or shadowbanning particular users that do not violate any laws or TOS means they are venturing into the publisher role more and more.

Section 230 was clearly designed to preserve free speech not to encourage its destruction by homogeneous corporations.
But that's true of literally any business - e.g. if I go to Warner and ask them to license some music for my game, I'm going to get ignored. If EA want to license music for a game, they'll be getting lavish dinners and a selection of fine wines along with a menu of the new bands Warner want to pimp.
That's why I was talking about the physics underlying terrestrial experiments explicitly. The intersection of GR and QFT does not appear here. We all desperately wish it were different of course. A new accelerator is also exceedingly unlikely to contribute anything to this question.
What's wrong with that? Countries need to compete just like corporations. Small countries need someway to compete for global talent, and low taxes are a good incentive.
This approach also means that the password must be stored as plain text. Otherwise they would only be able to compare if the password was complete.

I judge low income families in my circles for two reasons:

- they complain

- they tend to be jealous of others and judge them. Even sometimes of people who don't even spend as much as themselves

Honestly, most low income families I know of make poor money choices (cigarettes and alcohol being the poorest). I actually believe a big part of poor people are poor because they make bad choices, even though it's a somewhat unpopular opinion.

There’s no doubt at this point that exceptions are created, or rules selectively enforced, at Apple’s commercial convenience.

This benefits other large or significant developers, further increasing the relative barriers to market entry for those that can’t twist Apple arms.

This all falls into the same category of distorting a marketplace, to consumer detriment.
Darn. YouTube ads are seriously scammy nowadays.
Show HN: JsSnippet – Create and run custom JavaScript task (Chrome extension)
Risk seems to get a lot of hate these days.

BoardGameGeeks rankings push it way down, which seems to be a common theme for popular mainstream games. Though the ones at the bottom like Monopoly and Game of Life are truly horrible and give board games a bad rap: fulling deserving of their ranking.

To the right of Risk looks to be Stratego which was a fun game when I was a kid.
Authy on desktop sounds like such a terrible idea, though. Take that second factor and put it right next to the first.
Awesome work!

I still kind of wish that something RAII-like that is safe in the presence of exceptions and & types had made it in. But considering the immense amounts of work and effort that this has taken adding some more sweeping changes is somewhat of a pipedream.

The current version definitely looks practically useful, though kinda awkward given the syntax and polymorphism restrictions.
Blood Boost Formula Reviews
On the off chance that there are any symptoms to Blood Boost, potential clients certainly should be made mindful. It ought to be noticed that this item isn't planned for any individual who is in danger for significant wellbeing complexities, any individual who is pregnant or who is at present taking medicine or being treated for an ailment by a specialist.

The individuals who are under these arrangements should initially talk with their PCP before taking any new prescription, even a sound, common enhancement like Blood Boost Formula.

It would kinda make sense if the thing was cheap. But it's not so essentially you are paying a premium to have a shitty experience.

Doing hacky things on Apple products seems pointless in my opinion, because people paid their way into a walled garden that are now trying to escape?
Ah, that's also an explanation.

I tend to take the most optimistic interpretation.
If you store them as strings instead of binary (which I'm guessing 99% of hashes are), they take up more DB space currently, and passing them round is slower, e.g. as etags etc.
Yeah I'm a contractor that basically works on modernising the SDLC and target platforms. Nothing fancy.

Pretty much in all circumstances the outright adversary is Enterprise Architecture or Security using governance and security to push complex standards that don't work and result making changes harder and unpatched systems.

Some of them are receptive if you communicate the issues in terms of risk, but many most in my experience are only receptive if put it in writing and you copy in their boss.

Lower corporate taxes have not resulted in "talent" moving to those countries. It's all legal maneuvering. This is tax evasion 101 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Laundromat_(film)).

Just wondering about the business model: how often do your coaches interact with your customers?
It seems that at a ~$10/month fee you wouldn't be able to afford too much of their time per customer.. Maybe 5 minutes per month at most (assuming $75/hr and deducting payment fees etc) ?
Or am I missing something?
Sure, but at least at my company and with our customers, there's a large number of people who can speak and listen just fine, but are terrible at written communication.

> If you have those kinds of people, you have hired sub-standard people.

I used to think so as well, but from my work experience I'm leaning towards being good at written communication is not the norm.
I agree with GP, that stack described above was a fucking nightmare.

Typescript and react are a joy to work with. I miss them every day I do only python, which has been my bread and butter for 16 years.

The framework landscape for SSR is not as good but it's getting there definitely. Nextjs is promising nowadays.
Why would we die out? I've not seen a convincing arguement about the arable land thing once you factor in the freed up capacity we use to feed animals. B12 supplements are cultured from bacteria. "Getting everything" from plants is no more difficult than culturing cows etc on a huge scale as we do now. It's just different to what people are used to.
Oh wait the only international orgs with any teeth are the IMF and the World Bank who support each other in a non-competitive, mutually-supportive, DC-based relationship. Too bad these countries were fucked centuries ago I guess.... it was foolish to hope to begin with.
I would be even siding with you slightly if this amounted to actually moving people, facilities and capital to that country.

However, in the modern world, corporations don't just use low taxes to simply route massive amounts of capital through low-tax countries without a net benefit for anyone — they are actually exploiting tax loopholes in different countries' tax laws against each other.

> Pass a law requiring all content flagged by the police to be removed

The private companies have an advantage, though, in that they can apply automated filtering, machine learning, what have you, as content is uploaded - when you're getting 500 hours of content[1] or 350,000 tweets[2] uploaded per minute, there is zero possibility that law enforcement can monitor and flag that effectively.

Case is really annoying to deal with. The string form is for humans to read and type, among other things.

So that leaves you somewhere around base 32, which is fine but isn't a huge benefit over hex, and hex has the benefit of being standard.
A Tribute to Alan Turing
I’ve heard this before, but long felt it is more like logic programming: you declare facts and relationships, then an evaluation engine finds results.

Not saying you can’t, say, pass around closures in Excel but it’s far from natural. Whilst spreadsheets always remind me, more than anything, of the Prolog I took in college, and not the Lisp or ML.
Windows and Linux: A Tale of Two Kernels
UK scales back plans for £5bn rival to Galileo satellite system
Everyone is forgetting “monotone”, a DVCS developed by Graydon Hoare (who later went to create Rust) of which the Git model is essentially a simplification (and much much less related to BitKeeper)

There was a lot of experimentation with VCSes at the time: arch -> tla -> baz ; bzr ; monotone ; cdv ; mercurial ; git ; even sun was finally getting merge tracking.

Monotone had the best structure but a slow and clunky implementation. It was adopted and simplified (in different ways) by git and hg; eventually git won by virtue of being way faster and demonstrably effective for a project the size of the Linux kernel (and Linus’ celebrity status didn’t hurt either)

But graydon hoare deserves a lot more credit than he received - Linus did credit him at the time, but no one seems to remember.
In practice, what is done is that big corporations have their headquarters in a few well-developed jurisdictions that have very strong laws to protect their shit (London, New York, etc.) but use shell companies in offshore locations that just offer a mailbox.

I don't have an issue with a bank being based in the Bermudas or anywhere, for example; but in that case the HQ should really be based there. There is the same issue with ships registered using flags of convenience. Again, I don't have a problem with that per se. But if there is dispute involving your ship, you go ask Liberia to sort it out. You get your insurance from Liberia too; you get the picture.

Now, being French I'm also well-aware that French politicians are completely unrealistic and want to tax French companies doing business abroad in France, and American companies doing business in France, in France (notice the pattern?) There is a middle ground.
You can probably just check the referrer header and display a giant nag message to people coming from that business listing.

I would guess that once compressed, binary represented as hex strings don't take much more space than base64 strings. Probably still a bit more than the compressed binary though.
Why? So we can export our problems to other planets? Why not sort out earth first?
