It's only 'being screwed' (or just an unfortunate decision on your part) if your participation in Euro economy is weighted high enough vs. the local economy.

i.e. the same increase looks better if you live in London than if you work remotely from Dublin. But.. I don't think it's surprising that London salaries aren't optimised for remote workers in Dublin?

(This may well change of course! Will be interesting to see what happens if remote work gets significantly more widespread.)
>the biggest reason they love open source is because it's "free" (meaning no cost), not the principles of software freedom nor the improved development methodology of open source.

I'm a cheapskate but that's still pretty weird to me. Open source software is free because the entire idea behind it is users don't get excluded. It's more about being accessible than not charging money.

There was a dual licensed HTML component that I was going to use at work but the commercial licensing conditions (not the price) were pretty bad. Per user licensing with a strict upper limit for both active users and the number of apps even though we don't know how many people are going to use the software and most users are only going to use it for one hour per month and we would probably integrate it into a library that will be automatically included in every of our applications to maintain consistency even if the commercial component is not actively being used in every project.

Paying $100/month or maybe a little more for a commercial license with few restrictions that I can just plop in would have been a no brainer but since I'd have to constantly play license tetris it's going to cost my company more time than the product is worth in the long run. It's not a lack money that forced me to go with an open source project that also happens to be free. It's the massive headaches caused by the commercial one.
> its pretty common that whatever you've locked up to (sign post, bike rack, parking meter, handrail, etc) is a lower grade of steel than the ultra-hard stuff on the shackle

Way back in highschool this always used to baffle me. You'd get kids spending $50+ on super fancy locks for their lockers, but all these locks equally were fastened to the locker with a flimsy little hasp that you could cut with a pair of tin snips, assuming you didn't just bend back the door of the locker itself.
I used "all objects" to mean the Jim_Obj objects in the C code I linked to, and int_19h used "object" for OO objects, but we are talking about the same kind of GC. int_19h's comment explains how implementing tracing garbage collection for OO object references without breaking EIAS would require a very pessimistic garbage collector. My reply is about how Jim Tcl implements this exact type of pessimistic tracing garbage collection for references, the basis of its OO system.

I should have just said "all values". The name Tcl_Obj/Jim_Obj is a legacy artifact that leads to lots of confusion. Perhaps Tcl 9 will rename Tcl_Obj to Tcl_Value.
using colors to denote levels of nesting will make code flash between colors as you edit it.

why would that be a problem? the nesting wouldn't change with every keystroke, but only as you type the specific characters that define the nesting. and depending on your editor or your typing habit you may type opening and closing characters first before filling in the content, thus you wouldn't break the nesting structure either.

the pharo smalltalk code editor highlights nesting brackets and parentheses in different colors, and i don't see any flashing of colors.

This is technically feasible. The latest html5 api (quite well adopted) allow copy paste from the OS and drag and drop. There is quite a bit of server side / javascript to implement, but it is feasible.
Personally I found (observing the difference between my own experience and some of my friends) that ignorance can be bliss.

I didn't read the books, and muddled my way through. Sure there were some things I learnt slower (like the benefit of routine) but overall I had a lot less anxiety about milestones or stages or all that stuff. Stormy days??! yeah ok whatever.

My main advise (for the first year at least) would be to listen to all advise, then throw out pretty much any "plan" and live 100% in response mode. Respond to what's going on hour to hour, don't get hung up about sleeping in the middle of the day or having breakfast at 4am, just do what feels right at that moment.

Also, when your friends ask what they can get for the baby etc ... HelloFresh, Deliveroo, or come round to my house and do the laundry while I sleep. You will not be short of baby clothes, but you will be short of energy to do some basics stuff.
It could also be that they are sleeping more, which people will try and shoehorn into: "that's a form of stress!" Stress is a buzzword, I'm wary of manhandling the theory too much as counterpoints come up, especially if it involves playing with semantics.

You can extend this further: git is the wrong representation model for code (text).

It's a useful representation model, but really only because programming languages are mostly designed to be line-oriented (though not enough: i.e. Python should disallow multiple imports on one line because it lightly breaks diff-viewing). Git is the dumbest possible thing that can work, and it does work, but it's also wrong.

What we really need is a generic way to store graph-structured data (which is what an AST really is) into something like git. Because then we could finally get rid of the notion of code-formatting as anything but a user experience peculiarity (the rise of "push button and blackbox fixes code for commit" elucidates why this should be).

But more importantly, it would mean we could reasonably start representing commits with some notion of what they are doing to the control flow and structure of the code. Think git's rename detection but it notices when a function is renamed, or can represent refactoring in a diff by showing that all the control linkages of one block of code have moved to a particular function (and by extension, diffs would now implicitly show when new links or dependencies are added).

The trouble of course is doing any of this generically, is an unsolved problem. I have an idea that you could probably do something interesting like this with git's existing structure and a language like Golang, where you decompose the program into a bunch of files representing the hierarchical AST and commit that rather then actual text maybe.
Multi-Signal GNSS and the Curious Case of Galileo E24
As a non-british who has had a great deal of experiences in Britain, I say you will likely still be ok.

I think there is a lot of 'good riddance' feelings in the EU population towards the UK right now but that is mostly driven by the way the media creates this black and white, us vs them divisive messages, none of which has any basis in reality.

The UK had for many years served as the ironclad under which more budget conservative countries protected themselves in EU negotiations. The UK got all the hate and the stereotype of the 'difficult' person in the room and all the other countries got there defensive stand preserved.

With the UK now leaving it's likely that the Netherlands or the 'New Hanseatic league' will probably fill the role of the 'difficult' person in the room.

Irrespective of all the sanguine media, the UK still has a great deal of positive points that make it attractive for businesses when compared with other EU countries:

- Flexible Labour law (e.g. France would be a counter-example)

- Functioning/Expedient Legal system

- Competitive tax framework

- Access to VC levels of funding for startups mostly biased towards London, but still

- The volume of funding available for University research and spin-offs (when comparing with other EU countries)

- Network effects with the US.

- An internal 60mil people consumer market, with a fairly high median disposable income (specially when compared with the EU27 median) and credit-friendly.

The EU project has a lot of ideals and visions sliding along a spectrum. There should never be a situation where if you do not agree with me than you are against me, that is reductionist and will never work in a EU wide project with some many heterogenous countries and cultures. In my opinion we cannot artificially accelerate what is likely a multi-generational mind shift (slow creep towards an EU federation) with process-driven reforms.

If I dare making a prediction I don't think the UK will be in a scenario of having to ration insuline medication or riots in the street as some describe, I also don't think the UK will be business as usual as some conservatives describe. It will mostly likely be somewhere in between because as with most things in reality this situation is nuanced and complex.
> Instead, they tended to have an advantageous temperament/personality style, and negligible family history of mental disorder. As adults, they report superior educational and occupational attainment, greater life satisfaction, and higher-quality relationships.

———-

I assume they adjusted for this, but this is funny at a surface level reading. People with superior educational attainment, greater life satisfaction, and higher quality relationships have fewer mental health issues. Who would’ve thought?!

Another take: we have medicalized the normal human range of human emotions to the point that 83% of the population will at some point be considered to have a mental disorder.

Perception is everything. Doesn't really matter if you said or did a particular thing - if people think you did then no amount of explanation will fix that. He can say that he was just mentioning it as an aside of the story, but that's not how it was perceived.

Adyen's pricing seems to be higher and way more confusing than Stripe's.[0][1]

AMEX and Discover's transaction costs are a percent higher on Adyen, and I can't actually tell what Mastercard or Visa will charge since it is obfuscated. The cherry on top is the FAQ at the bottom that describes what interchange++ is but doesn't actually tell you a range of fees that it can be. I guess it's cool to see in detail all the middle men taking a cut of my revenue, but I'm way more concerned about the actual amount that is being taken out ahead of time instead of it being a surprise for every transaction.

I thought about it some more, and realized a different issue.

I charge a fee to get the software, and renewal fee for support and upgrades.

That's essentially a subscription, right?

The main difference is that once my customer has the software, even under the proprietary license, there's no time limit to their continued use of their old versions.

So is EvanAnderson's point that only time-based subscription renewals are sustainable?
None of the half & half options are as good as membership (by design). So Brexiteers won't accept them because they would mean admitting they were wrong. They'll insist on being completely "out", then when we have nothing it will be everyone else's fault for "picking on us" by not letting us have whatever we want.

You can't argue with them. They're all suffering a group hallucination...
> thousands of lifetimes of other data with many modes of interaction and different media would be better.

But why not just 1 lifetime of different kinds of data? Heck, why not an environment of 3 years of multi-media data that a child would experience? That wouldn't cost insane amounts of money (or probably anything even close to what we've spent on deep learning as a species).

A corpus limited to the experiences of a single agent would create a very compelling case for intelligence if at the end of that training there was something that sounded and acted smart. It couldn't "jump the gun" as it were, by a lookup of some very intelligent statement that was made somewhere else. It would imply the agent was creatively generating new models as opposed to finding pre-existing ones. It'd even be generous to plain-ol'-AI as well as deep learning, because it would allow both causal models to explain learned explicit knowledge (symbolic), or interesting tacit behavior (empirical ML).
I generally agree. Here's why I like terminal UI:

- The constraints force designers to use the space efficiently. That means less details like borders, shadows or hover effects which is relaxing.

- It has a (relatively) uniform look and feel and automatically uses my system colors through the terminal configuration.

But I don't think every GUI program needs to be TUI. Like, if it's a bad fit for your user base or inconvenient to use or implement for you, it's fine. Do what works best for you, not every app is equal.

(Aside from that, most of my "apps" are just shitty Bash scripts that store data in some ad-hoc plain text or JSON file, break when you look at them the wrong way and are hell to debug but I love it. Do give me a good non-interactive CLI or API if you can!)

'Cancel Culture' is generally not 'a mob' - it's usually journos or individuals leveraging or hyping up a little bit of a mob.

A Board is not going to dump a CEO because of just some angry people on Twitter, it's the pressure exerted by amplified voices, particularly those in the press. Once a fire starts, a lot of other writer tend to to pile on.

If everything were just on Twitter, nobody would care. It's the 'newsification' of Twitter that creates the problem.

The Board cannot ignore CNN, WaPo and all the ruffling they casuse.

An illegal subsidy. Public contracts require a bidding process, usually across Europe.

> Multiple ciphertexts using the same key, a fatal flaw for a cryptosystem even today.

To avoid confusing readers, one should mention that modern ciphers separate the key, which can be reused but must be kept secret, from the initialization vector (IV), which must not be reused but can be transmitted in the clear.

These correspond roughly to the Enigma's daily settings and per-message rotor start positions, but AIUI the procedure for selecting and transmitting the latter changed over the course of the war, and at times insecure even if done according to the procedure.
We really need a law or rule that protects people from this stuff. If you can't 'go to adult jail' when you're 16, you shouldn't go to 'twitter jail' either.

Moreover - more subtly and more importantly - most teens in 2020 have absolutely no context for racism, 'spouse abuse' and these things (many do, but most don't).

Teens say crazy, crazy things. They'll compare a lot of things to Gorillas, including, sadly 'Black people' - of course it's not right, but there is a context of 'extreme locker room talk' and they'll just say anything. I don't think they mean any of it, it's like someone making a joke about 'The English' - it's not meant to be hateful or offensive, it's just excessive joking around.

It's only when you're an adult, when you see that 'some things are real' does it take another context then all of a sudden words really become a problem.

For example - if this joke were not 'written down on record' - nobody, I mean nobody would care a single bit that he 'said something when he was 16' even if we knew for sure he said it. That it is 'on the record' is effectively what makes it 'situationally toxic' wherein brands have no choice but to back off, and HR teams hands are 'forced' into action.

Twitter should also have a policy on this.
There is no recent history of the US interning and torturing parts of their own population because of their religion or ethnicity. That is in a totally different category than foreign policy or stuff they did while Mao’s policies starved 20 million+ people to death or student protests were suppressed by rolling tanks over them.
This was part of my childhood in South Australia, too. The winters aren't as brutal as those in North America, but sub-zero temperatures in an under-insulated house needs heating wherever you are.

Firewood is certainly a PITA and I can't stand the smell of woodsmoke, but I still feel that fireplaces produce much more pleasant heat than any modern system.

Yes? So? That doesn't mean it does not also includes actual children, and people who are actual parents of minors they're traveling with.
It doesn't work like that. EU state populations overwhelmingly like rich countries over poor ones. Including poor countries is a geostrategic decision with little low-level support from people.

Switzerland, Norway, Iceland would be welcome with open arms, they just don't want to join.

The baggage caused by the UK will dissipate in 5-10 years or so and at the end of the day, the UK is comparatively rich by EU standards.

London is more expensive to live in than Dublin, by raw property prices, but London is much easier to commute in from distances.

Until the pandemic Dublin had become impossible to rent in due to reallocation to AirBnB.
