In France the difference is that you pay a broadcast tax every year for owning a TV. Even if the tuner is unplugged. Even if the TV is covered with dust in a basement. Even if you rip the tuner apart and use it as a screen only (this specific case has been lawyered to death right up to the last court of Cassation).

Because computers and smartphones, the law has since been extended to also include the case where you own no TV but either a PCI or USB tuner, or any internet access that includes TV streaming (e.g those that come with a set-top box, or those extra options on mobile plans).
Interesting, thanks for the pointer
Mine didn't in any great detail.
Tunnels can actually be one of the safest places during an earthquake, so long as its well built and doesn’t pass through a fault line.
IIRC, malware on Android apps generally fakes clicks to get free ad revenue and perform other operations technically allowed by the Android APIs. They don't compromise the security of the device because the apps are sandboxed.

If the deal between Fortnite and Oneplus wouldn't cost Google any money, there's a good chance Google would let it slide, but that doesn't change that their concerns are legitimate. If a grassroots effort stopped this deal, we would all be cheering.
Ah, it seems you're either unfamiliar with the culture at HelloSign, or a proponent of it.

With that lot, the assumption isn't much of a stretch.
I don't think that I will get a professional translation but sometimes HN do surprise me, and I generally consider it worth a shot to ask for it when I see two people making quotes with quotations marks about the same translation.

I fully agree that translation should make one suspicious, especially those involving politics. When news in my native language has translations from English (second language) that sounds just a bit too much on the nose it usually prompt me to go and read the original source. Almost every time i find that the original statements involve a lot of contextual nuances.
It might not be obvious what they're building when they say "Build connected systems you can trust" if you're not the target audience.

As I understand it, Ockam has three products:

1. The Cloud SDK: Think Okta / Amazon Cognito but for services.

2. The Edge SDK: Think Okta / Amazon Cognito but for Mobile and IoT devices.

3. The Embedded SDK: Think Google Conscrypt but uses strongest available hardware primitives wherever available.
I wonder why it seems nobody wants to use Hugo. Smashing Magazine appears to be happy with it and they tooted about their experience with Hugo multiple times.

Instead, everyone chooses Gatsby, Next or another javascript based framework of this week.

>It’s a retail cut they’re used to from other platforms like Sony PlayStation, or Ticketmaster for concert tickets.

The counterpoint being that Ticketmaster doesn't take a 30% cut on consession sales at the event AFAIK.

That's the real issue - these stores are distributing some apps for free and some for pay. Hence free apps can sidestep paying the Google/Apple cut and then offer in-app payments directly. But that's entirely due to their business model of allowing free apps and taking a cut on paid apps.
Missing ANT+ was mentioned above. I was recently looking at the Apple Watch and rowing machines. Ignoring that a wrist-based heart monitor isn't great for things like boxing or rowing, you can't really get the heart rate monitor to connect to gym equipment. Instead of ANT+ or Bluetooth LE Apple did release GymKit in 2017--but very few things support it. The "rowing" exercise doesn't measure things rowers find useful (it's basically a generic cardio workout). When using a separate heart rate monitor and syncing your workout with Apple Health you can get double measurements heart rate (the AW constant heart rate and the strap during the workout).

The fitness industry has a pretty well-developed ecosystem (I grabbed a random 5 year old heart rate chest strap and it paired immediately to the rowing machine). Garmin has seemed to have embraced that for at least a decade. It can definitely use improvement, but Apple has its own thing and it'll give you grief if they didn't have your use-case in mind.

To be fair, others like Fitbit has similar issues. With them you can't even grab detailed heart-rate data.
I migrated a couple of sites I look after from react-static (which is a nice, simple library but unfortunately had some fundamental issues that it sounded like we’re unlikely to be solved and gave the impression that it was struggling for maintainers e.g. https://github.com/react-static/react-static/issues/1203), one to Gatsby and the other to NextJS.

I agree largely with the findings described here - Gatsby felt quite slow and the GraphQL part feels like complexity overkill, for my use case I bypassed it using their createPage API but you lose out on eg the ability to reload a page’s data on the fly by doing so (from what I could work out - the documentation was a bit lacking in parts I found).

I was more impressed with NextJS, it feels generally more solid and easier to understand. It has a great preview feature where you can set a cookie and then the site will pull in data at request time rather than from the static site (perfect for CMS previews!) and build times seem alright - I haven’t had cause to look into speeding them up, which is a good sign.

Personally I’d go with NextJS in future based on my experience... that said, I’ve no idea if it would work well for their reasonably specialised use case!
Getting in touch with "the right people" seems to be hard at a lot of companies for rare issues like this.

Imagine another rare issue - say I want to speak to the board of directors to give them a buyout offer... Would I manage that though in-app chat?

Violent crime in US is relevant because the state is the one committing it.

In US there are 6 homicide every 100 thousands of population, in Europe is 0.6, ten times less, in Japan it's 0.5.

Do you wanna know some country that have similar stats to US?

Nigeria, Sudan, Angola, Cuba, Somalia, Burundi, Zambia

Some countries that have better stats?

Rwanda (2.3), Mozambico, Camerun (1.4), Algeria (1.3),Burkina Faso (2.1)

That already speaks volumes about what's wrong in US society, but if that wasn't enough to be considered outside the western standards, police killing stats are completely off the charts

What you fail to understand with your simplistic view is that if the police kills, there is going to be a group that is more marginalized and victimised than any other, regardless if they live or not near a lake, because of prejudice and prejudice is a form of racism.

If the police don't kill, like in every other developed western country (which US is not in these regards) there is not going to be any accountability of state enforced racism, but simply episodes of racism, because the single copo is a racist.

If you believe that you can't have a drowning problem if you live in a city, consider that the majority of drownings that happen in my country are people not living near water that go to swim.

Your mistake is believing that police killings of people of colour don't happen near a lake.

You know what is true instead?

That police can't kill people of colour if they don't live when they serve.

Your proposition reinforce the hypothesis.

Also because

- you posted no relevant fact, only your opinions ("say one group ... say another group" say you are wong and making up numbers, no? Is it possible you are?)

- the link you posted only talks about police report, which is a source incredibly biased. Police reports are known to be falsified to protect the police and cover their abuses.

- we don't even kill mobsters and still we have almost zero killings by the police and ten times less homicides per unit of population of US. It is entirely possible if you live in a developed country that is able to produce a civilized society. US is arguably incapable of doing that.

- in the end you support he idea that the only way for people of colour to not be shot and killed by the police is, using your metaphor, to avoid swimming . Which is called segregation. That's why from a distance we look at US in horror. Because US is a scary society, not only for people of colour, but especially for minorities like people of colour, which are American, have been for centuries, but are not considered as such.

You should see a black American shot dead by the police as an American shot by the police. You still see at him like someone who's dead because he dared to swim.
It's an interesting experiment in switching between various frameworks but honestly, looking at the docs, they could just use WordPress.. but regardless of backend, I'm not sure I see a need for a React frontend here https://docs.sentry.io/
Not OP, though mild experience with art history and Christian history, but I suspect OP is talking about the intersection of art and the prevailing religion in Europe at the time (Christianity). Early Christian art was intentionally unrealistic in style specifically because the intent was often symbolism and representation rather than realism (this still holds true today for most Orthodox Christian art[0]). In fact, making it realistic would even border on idolatry (see Iconoclastic Controversy[1]).

That said, up until the European middle ages, nearly all art was that which was commissioned by the church. The style of the time permeated the art that wasn't commissioned by the church. As more non-religious art was commissioned, there was little need to remain working in that style and realism was embraced. I could be wrong, and probably am, but I think Catholicism is the only large Christian denomination that adopted realistic art.

I think depth was already understood by this point, though (see sculptures[2]). Again, I'm not OP, and I'm sure OP will have a more thorough explanation.

If a static site generator put my images in the wrong place and required a gigantic JSON file to be loaded by the client for no reason I would not think twice to get rid of it.

There are literally hundreds of static site generators: https://www.staticgen.com

Most of them should get markdown right too!
Main issue with these are the lack of inputs. 2 HDMI ports is not enough for most people. And lack of ARC complicated adding a sound system.
After spending two weeks with Gatsby for my current project, I ditched it for Hugo and it was GREAT.

Not only Gatsby feels complicated for simple things, but doesn't offer the same level of flexibility as Hugo does. And it also has the most appreciated benefit of not having to battle with the js ecosystem. Hugo just works.
I don’t care about the display, they should make a version without it. I would love to be able to have just the sensors and Health integration, but I don’t wear watches and the Apple Watch is to expensive and intrusive if you just want the health tracking.
> The 'proper approach' would presumably be to report this bug to them directly

That's rather presumptuous of you, as it implies your goals are more correct than anyone else's.

Perhaps next time the following would be more accurate:

> The 'proper approach' for me would presumably be to report this bug to them directly
Hugo is really, really good at what it does. I run a number of static blogs on it, including that of my startup [0] and my personal blog [1]. However, for many purposes, a completely static setup like the one that Hugo offers is surpassed by the reactive capabilities of Next.js/Gatsby/Nuxt, etc.

For larger, more complex sites, javascript frameworks make more sense, and offer far more functionality for building a web-app.

Two different purposes, IMO.

For what it’s worth: I tried Hugo and hated the templating language.

I know React and Next let me solve my problems faster.

That’s it.

(Aside: Both Gatsby and Next have been around for a while and will be for the foreseeable future. So not a flavour of the week.)
Sweden used to have it like this. You had to pay a license for owning
a TV receiver. But then the public broadcaster also started offering streaming over the internet. Then they declared "also a computer is a TV receiver" and required everyone with a computer to pay TV license. If you refused, you were taken to court. The court agreed with the broadcaster. Only in the highest court was it thrown out. Had it not, there would have been an explicit tax on owning a computer in Sweden.

This was a despicable period and since then the law has changed. Now there is no license fee on owning a TV receiver. Instead everyone pays a tax whether they own a TV, a computer, whatever and no matter if they watch TV or not.
QM doesn’t assume space is discrete. It does deal with a number of discrete quantities though.

Are you sure that’s where the conflict is?

I think people have done QM with a given curved spacetime, just, where the spacetime manifold isn’t decided based on the distribution of matter and whatnot?

Like, I think that’s where the ideas of Hawking radiation come from?
Every large project needs people like you. Thanks for the laugh.
Gatsby vs. NextJS
Not a direct comment on the claims of the article but handwriting definitely seems to be a dying art.

My mother, who's in her 80s never tires of telling me how bad mine is. I may be biased but, while I admit mine wouldn't win any prizes for calligraphy, I still think it has a certain flourish and style to it.

Up until a few years ago, I used to teach at a university and I was shocked at just how bad younger people's handwriting was. Looking at notes written by many of my students, you really would have thought they'd been written by a six year old; individually printed letters, painfully [and mal-] formed, with no sense of flow or consistency of size or spacing.

I can only see this getting worse as more and more 'writing' is done with keyboards and less and less people reach for a pen. Even from a very young age

To return to my mother. She tells me she regularly had lessons in 'penmanship' at school, being taught to write 'properly' with a fountain pen. My grandmother's generation were taught to write with dip pens and bottles of ink and left-handed children were forced to write with their right hands.

I can remember from my schooldays [1970s] being given one or two lessons in primary school on how to do 'joined up writing'. That was about it. I doubt modern children are given any instruction in how to write at all.

I wonder how long it will be til we start raising generations of children who, though not technically illiterate, are physically incapable of writing legibly at all, due to almost exclusive use of keyboards from a very young age?

Most of the work is just creating the index.
To me most Ubuntu things like LXD, Mir, snap feels like it was made by someone who did not understand the existing solutions and could not be bothered to understand it. There may be some points where LXD is "better" (they keep bringing up uid/gid mapping) but it really does not provide the same functionality as OCI containers and does not enable the same workflows as OCI containers.

LXD is not an alternative to Docker or K8S, it is something different which offers different features.

And if we are just talking docker, and not k8s, then all the security you can ever want can be found in podman which by default operates rootless and daemonless and works on stock standard OCI containers.

If we are talking k8s there are already runtimes which support rootless operation like cri-o and there are k8s distros that support rootless operation https://github.com/rootless-containers/usernetes - these maybe are not as widely used as they should be and work is ongoing but you will soon see more of them I think.
Microsoft and Nokia were victims of their own internal politics.

As former Nokia employee, the whole Symbian vs Linux was a big deal to what happened, hence why the first Linux tablets lacked any kind of phone capabilities, despite us in internal road shows about future devices providing that as feedback.

The Symbian dev community, despite not being in love with Symbian C++, what spoiled everything was the continuous reboot in dev tools (Metrowerks with Perl scripts, 2 Eclipse based IDEs, Qt) and then came the burning memo telling them that the efforts to go through all those Symbian reboots were in vain, and it was time to start from scratch with .NET (Silverlight/XNA).

Microsoft, for rebooting the platform multiple times, PocketPC/Windows CE into the constrained Silverlight/XNA of WP7, followed up by a complete reboot for WP 8, yet another one in WP 8.1 to align a bit more the platforms (UAP), followed by the UWP rewrite once more when Windows 10 came out. Ah and in the process they failed to uphold to their promises of which devices would get the updates for the new OS versions.

Yet, despite all the dev and consumer anger in the WP eco-system regarding those decisions, they managed to slow and steady arrive to 10% market in Europe, which could have kept increasing if they were willing to bleed a bit more, while sorting out their politics.

Meanwhile Windows slowly owns the tablet market, at least here in Europe, everyone that wants a tablet with detachable keyboard and isn't willing to pay Apple prices, goes either with 2-1 laptops or convertible ones, which with the ongoing Reunion project roadmap means devs are back with a Windows 7 tablet programming model alongside an improved COM for the ride (yet another reboot to add up to the previous ones).

And this mostly because how much Google tries, most apps for Android tablets are just phone apps running on bigger screen, while Microsoft has learned to take advantage of their market share in laptops as the hardware turns into better tablets.
-AOL. I work in automation&controls in the oil industry, and my customers are always puzzled when I start to whittle away at the features suggested, rather than adding to them; my mantra being that 'If it isn't there, it cannot fail.'

My experience echoes yours - I keep my appliances as simple as possible, both at home and professionally.

Add complexity wherever you have to, not wherever you want to.
> Despite its successes, Einstein's robust theory remains mathematically irreconcilable with quantum mechanics

This is exaggeration, they are not badly in conflict with each other, we just have not found a way to unify them, i.e. explain gravity through QM.
That is exactly my issue. I would love the health tracking features, but I can’t stand wearing watches or rings
As a full time software documentation writer, all I ever do on github is correct docs and text (because nothing looks more unprofessional than terrible spelling, especially in your UI, expect maybe for when the directions are wrong and don't work)

I've just checked and am now running at over 40 rejected changes, many with really offensive comments added to them.

Open source developers often come across as very rude and argumentative and this sort of response to legitimate fixes kills any interest I had in helping. Looking through some of the projects I they are also treating code changes the same way. I'd suggest that that future hacktoberfests will have much less participation
Ofcourse it is. Privacy is taken serious by people around the world. But you know it, companies like Google, Facebook will eventually get your whole data in some way.
Not infinite-infinite, just with no obvious limit. If task depth was maxed out at 256 levels, I probably would never notice.

Most systems I've seen allow you a one top-level of Task (under some "project", "epic" or whatnot). Then you can - in some - add a kind of degenerated, impotent Subtask to that task. And then your next level of nesting is just a humble bullet-point checklist.

What I want is truly composable Tasks. Because sometimes real-world work expands like that. Because I want to subdivide my work within the ticket I'm assigned to. Because sometimes I don't know how much the entire ticket will take, but I have a pretty good estimate on what the subtasks will take, so I want to input that, and then both me and my manager will have a ticket estimate that's a little bit less nonsense.

The DAG part enters the picture here: I want to be able to have tasks depend on each other. I want to be able to make a top-level ticket depend on a sub-sub item of another ticket, because sometimes your co-worker can start working on their part once you do one small part of yours, and it would be nice to have that information correctly recorded in the system (instead of Task B being blocked by the entire Task A).

(I talked about nesting before, but the truth is, with a DAG, nesting stops being a first-class concept. It's just a matter of presentation, of which you could offer many types - but underneath, it's all just a graph of tasks that connect to each other. A simple and elegant model.)

Now I know that there's a lot of software "agile" philosophy that essentially makes you implement that DAG in your head. No point of cross-subtask dependencies if your agile dogma tells you tasks need to be small. No point in complex linking if half of it won't fit in a sprint, etc. But that's using philosophy as a hack around inadequate tooling.

There comes a time in a team's life where you want to plan out some complex work that spans multiple stories/epics/whatnot. Many months. Tooling for that is scarce (and this is how we discovered the desired features I listed in the previous comment). But I see no reason why you should do that work on a different tool than the one you'll be using for day-to-day work. Imagine instead that, during a planning session, you subdivide work as deep and wide as you can, you link it all into a dependency DAG, enter initial estimates, etc. Then, day-to-day, people will adjust and subdivide and relink nodes as the work demands, but at all times, the entire plan, the entire schedule, and the critical path, is visible to everyone.

That's what I want. A ticketing system that also works for project planning, locking day-to-day work and planning into a tight feedback loop - so that you have both high and low-level views available, and always in sync.
