AFAIK, yes. Other people on the project/audit can be held responsible too if they contributed negligently, but the partner who oversaw the project is ultimately accountable for the work. That partner is also who the PCAOB/SEC would fine and/or suspend their accounting certification.
Well, conservatives should have thought about it like 10 years ago when that cabal against conservative point of view started on social media or in the Silicon Valley. Instead they chose to rely on businesses that were largely operated by "progressives" whatever it means today. They had an opportunity to create conservative social networks, they didn't. This isn't a good reason why section 230 should be revoked. Yes, Twitter is biased against conservatives, but that's OK, conservatives should go create their own Twitter, that's the point of the web anybody can create their own thing, the more competition the better.
I expect a lot of those workers will go remote to WFH from NH indefinitely. I've know a lot of people over the years who commuted from NH to MA. Over time, I've seen more and more of them move remote. And I see a ton doing it at the moment.

(MA is relatively high state income tax and NH is zero.)
This is a big problem for our non-profit organization. All of our documentation is stored in Confluence. We are fortunate enough to use a free Community license for self hosted servers, but this announcement would remove the free Community license and would force us into a Community Cloud license that would cost us over $4k a year. Are there any good, possibly open source, alternatives available for non-profits?
I wish there were better self-hosted wikis. Most seem to be from the mid-00s and rock the look. None of them have real-time collaborative editing like Confluence or Quip from my research.
Something I would like to see is the attacks normalized over the number of customers - are they also increasing their customer base exponentially? If so, maybe this data really isn't so interesting...

Born to love a mediocre soccer team. They were always playing in the second or third tier when I was growing up, but just as I turned 18 they took the step up to the top tier. There were some years going up and down before they kind of stabilized in the top tiers seven won two cup finals (best days of my life), but it’s been downhill since then. I would say 10% positive emotions, 30% neutral and 60% negative emotions all in all. But what can you do? It’s not like you can change teams.

Interesting, I’m not quite certain how a state has the authority to tax residents of another state to begin with. Anyone have some case law on the subject handy?

EDIT: I’d like to add in purely talking about W-2 or 1099 income tax. There are various other arguments to be made about income from sources such as ownership in a corporation or partnership registered in a foreign state that I’ve no desire to get into, as that’s possible to work around by moving the entity.
Certainly, convincing rationalists their rationality is based on skewed evidence and false reasoning is hard. I try to ration my time investment on this, rationalising that I will gain more by doing less. Which is in it's own way, the Zen outcome: rationally, we're all dead for a long time so, why bother?

Postscript: rationalisationism is post-hoc reasoning. I did take the last cookie, now, think of a justification why it's OK.. working in children's brains since the invention of the cookie jar.
Even within motorsport, not everyone likes F1. For example, I find it rather boring compared to drag races and sprint cars. No doubt others will be the complete opposite.

I'm lucky that I was taught how to read music as a kid... I'm still rubbish at it, it's slow and painful for anything vaguely complex, but at least I can do it badly when I put mind to it.

I find complex rhythms particularly hard to read. Figuring out timing from a sheet without hearing it is like pulling teeth :D That said, listening to a recording of a great pianist and trying to work out exactly what they are doing can also be very difficult and frustrating when there are chords and complex patterns in two hands, so a good transcription can help a lot. I have a book of Bill Evans transcriptions that I would definitely do more with if I were better at reading music, or had software assistance!

It would also be interesting if we could convert lead into gold. Technically true, but not a novel observation, and an incredibly difficult problem.

Edit: specifically, none of the interesting parts of this problem/idea are in the phrasing - the only thing to do is just go out and implement it, and that's very difficult because (1) you're essentially trying to solve the Turing Test ("is this a computer or a human?") (2) most of the techniques that you might use to heuristically make this determination can either (a) be defeated very easily or (b) be defeated by another AI made using similar resources+techniques to those used to make the first.
I would seriously consider the use of the Polyform Small Business License for my project[1] which is currently MIT and has many small business users. We're concerned that some of the big players in the space will come in and fork/rebrand our software for their platforms. I just wish there was a mechanism for dual-licensing built-in, because big corporations who support the project would be welcome to use it.

> But there does seem to be a difference between say using FLOSS project X as a dependency in my app vs AWS tweaking it, introducing it as a direct competitor to X, and leveraging their huge marketshare to sell it.

Is there really a difference at all? You're complaining that a managed service is somehow "a direct competitor". Compete in what? I mean, am I really competing with the project if I get a few instances up and running?

By your line of reasoning, they are actually helping the project grow and establish itself as relevant piece of infrastructure. Somehow I don't see this being used as a justification to demand a share of the revenue the other way around.

In the end, all I see is people complaining that someone who uses a project that was always freely distributed happens to have deep wallets, and somehow hey feel entitled to some cash just because a third party is rich. Where does this make any sense?

Here is my only remapping: map Q <nop>

Whenever I use vim without my config I wind up hitting Q and entering ex mode and wishing I had my config.

I've used vim on and off for at least 6 years and have never installed a plugin. Vim is great for quick edits, arranging text in temporary files (control x + control e in the terminal, quit without saving), moving chunks of code around, running macros. Its also great to use the keybindings in your favorite electron IDE.

I'm just not a "plugins" person. I've been trying to set up a python environment in emacs for a while and it hasn't been fun. Its an iterative process of installing a few plugins, getting something buggy and slow to use, and eventually getting fed up and restarting from a minimal config file.

Emacs has been amazing for magit alone, I just wish I was good enough at it to use it for more things.

Vim? Its my barebones text mover that has keybindings in countless apps. That's all it needs to be.
I feel like this should be an indication that html is going in the wrong direction.

> Telling your users "sorry you're using an ancient version, please update" just makes people angry

I think telling people we support version x - y and facing a problem say try upgrading makes people angry

Telling people we support version a - b and sorting out their issue is fine even when a-b is smaller than x-y

I know support have it difficult because no one can be across all the bugs, regression and fixes, for multiple versions/configurations
As a philosophy major with multiple degrees, this is a very strange thing to read. I was raised by a highly religious family, and was always confused by why we believed what we believed. This led me to studying philosophy.

I think most people don't have the deep suspicion that everything they may know might be wrong, somehow, and that the phenomena they experience may be explainable in a parallel way that better describes things.

Caring about and understanding the structure of knowledge is philosophy. It always surprises me that other's have not explored these subjects beyond casually considering them during a novel or film.

We use Bitbucket server because we prefer the code review UI and the diff views over everything else. I was shocked when I tried the cloud version and saw how different and how much worse it was. Would otherwise actually prefer to move to cloud but not with that UI, will re-eval competitors instead.
I don't have any case law and am not a lawyer, but if you live in one state and work in another, the state you work in can absolutely tax you. As I understand it, there's some truing up between the states, but in this case it's pretty simple. Even if you live in no income tax NH, if you work in relatively high tax MA, you pay MA taxes.
Also immoral and wrong.
TFS is the self-hosted predecessor to Azure DevOps and it absolutely sucks compared to JIRA.
I assume you fix the math errors and then whatever the result is turns out to be the justification for the decision. The result doesn't matter, so you don't need to aim at a particular one.
Dang. I actually like how customizable Jira's workflows are. What else is good at customizable Scrum-like workflows with custom fields?
Well, to be fair you have an even stronger argument against me in that code is really just text. I mean, I can create `libellous_rant.txt` and push it into a public Github repo. Since any file on a pubic github repo is viewable (even without setting it up as a site or whatever feature they have) that feels like they could be viewed as publishing that content. So Github couldn't even really force moderation of issues, they would have to moderate every single file in every single repo.

But to address the specific concern you brought up, removing Section 230 wouldn't prevent someone submitting bugs/issues. It would just force the moderation of those posts before they were made publicly viewable. For small projects that receive 2 or 3 bug reports a week I doubt that would be the massive issue everyone here is wringing their hands over. It becomes a problem with scale - like 1000+ issues per day on a project ran by a single developer. But to be fair to my position - could such a developer even deal with that volume of issues even if the default behaviour was to make all posts public?

I grant that moderation slows discussion. For example, if you were asleep and someone posted an issue then before you even had a chance to moderate some other non-admin user might answer the question. Maybe we lose that. More likely we find a way to work around it.
Sometimes I spend close to $2k a month at McMaster for work things. They are literally a modern marvel. I order something at 6pm . It's there at 9am the next day.

I buy things from them even if it's double price, since I know there's no drama with their orders. It just works. Everytime.

They are the defacto standard that I have for a great e-commerce experience. When I need design /UI tips for my website. McMaster is always referenced. Never Amazon...

5% isn't really that high unless you're comparing to zero. And, right at the border, NH property taxes are correspondingly higher.

Gotta pay for stuff somehow, it's not the federal government.
Have a look at F1 - Drive to survive on Netflix. I never considered myself to be “into” F1, and this series really opened my eyes to the sport and everything that goes into a race.

It provides a view that normal TV doesn’t give you, but will have you watch the regular TV broadcast of races with very different eyes.
I am just completely amazed but yet not surprised there is an entire organization dedicated to spreadsheet risks and best practices. What a world we live in. This just goes to show what the killer app is for computers, it seems.

Your comment is disingenuous. This is only for 2020, this is how much they could cut _retroactively_. City council demanded 50% cut for 2021, and overrode the mayor's veto to allow this to proceed: https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/politics/seattle-c...

Quote: "Though the council’s bills were expected to immediately slice only about $3 million from the Police Department’s $400-plus million annual budget — nowhere close to the 50% that seven council members in July vowed to extract — the council members described the trims as a crucial “down payment” on more sweeping changes to come."

Dig a little deeper next time. Don't fall for fake news.
If you work in another state then your subject to their tax jurisdiction. The issue here is you’re not actually setting foot in the other state so it’s looking more like a cash grab.

I’d bet the question is gonna hinge on whether the office location of the work has been updated in company records. If your “office” is still on the corporate books in Taxachussets then you’ll have to pay.
I don't think C++ ever really had a bad rap except among ideologues and evangelists of other languages. In my experience, people like this are very rare in the real world outside of maybe Rust conferences.
It's obviously totally valid not to like it. I once went in person for a qualification and being on one spot on the track was not particularly great, I'm glad I experienced (for the real experience) but I prefer watching on tv where a director chooses where to go to show the best of the race every given moment.

Some reasons are more personal than others but here's my take (although I haven't been watching in the past 3 years):

1. Nostalgia, I used to watch F1 every race as a kid with my dad (we never had sports pay tv, and F1 was broadcasted free as opposed to soccer [I'm european]); we used to watch Moto GP too for that same reason and this are the only 2 motorsport I actually would still watch, I don't really have interest in any other, so this might be the most important factor.

2. races used to be more exciting, objectively: a combo of less technical/financial differences between teams, less safety rules, old school tracks (that seem to be better suited for overtakes for some reason) made it so that more drivers were able to compete for each specific position. Financial standing of a certain team is nowadays the number 1 predictor of success. Give today's mercedes to most drivers that can be called F1 drivers with a straight face and after getting to know the car they are going to do well, even compete with Hamilton. Same thing was probably true with Schumacher once he got to Ferrari (that was my nostalgia time, so it hurts to say): yes he was exceptional but 80% was the car (and arguably his ability to communicate what he/it needed to the engineers), 10% his instinct on setup/aerodynamic, 10% him being truly unique (at the time) on wet conditions.

3. pit stops, used to be more exciting (and dangerous with fuel refill) I suppose but I think it still brings a sparkle to the race, strategy and actual timing of the stops are a big moment that can make or break a driver race

4. one race is not a good measure for determining the overall excitement for the season: first of all there are better races and worse races; then overall there is some excitement from how much risk taking and calculation are involved in a race depending of current championship standings. Also, if you are so inclined there is drama in between races (usually not into that personally)

5. last, you said you followed Raikonnen: if you literally just watched 1 driver (not sure if it's possible, but I think so) by setting the camera only on his car, I'm sure you were doomed to boredom, the "race as a whole" is at least a bit fun on every race, but the race of a single driver? probably booooring: 2 hours and unless the driver somehow is fighting all the times (good car but classified last somehow?) there's going to be a lot of nothing going on.

Also races with mixed weather are very unpredictable and add a huge variable, making for usually awesome races in my opinion. Unfortunately they don't happen very often.

> Right. As weird as it sounds I think you have to "practice" liking certain foods.

We do. The taste buds of young children are attuned to liking sweet. Milk is sweet (lactose), and poisonous foods are usually not, so its of evolutionary use. As is switching teeth.

From what I read, it takes about 10 times till a child likes something they disliked before. Force feeding leads to trauma though; so we provide our child with options and encourage her to sample. One particular quote I use (translated from Dutch): "you don't know yet how it tastes. If you try it you'll find it out. Maybe you're missing out?" I want to stimulate her curiosity because its a trait I like (in both her parents). She won't get an alternative food though, and she will be allowed her desert regardless.

As for sour, we combine yogurt (sour) with custard (vanilla, sweet) at times. The balance is more in favor of the latter for the child; parents eat a more sour version. From my memory I disliked bitter as child (some vegetables are abundant with that taste). Now I drink coffee black daily, and love bitter vegetables, as long as the taste is combined with herbs, spices, pepper, and other flavors such as sweet/sour/salty/umami (while respecting the bitterness as being the dominant taste).
Unsure, I've assumed it provides enough power. There's reviews of some sony cameras using an external usb battery for video recording.
How can you be worse than JIRA? Thats almost impressive.
I’d argue the global taxation at the Federal level is more justified. You’re paying for the right to flee back from anywhere on Earth and have the doors of the USA swing open for you.
