I'm pretty sure more people care about the VAT being calculated correctly than about whether it's displayed on the left or on the right.

You're taking a reasonable point of view - code matters only inasmuch as it has an effect on users - and take it to an absurd extreme.
You can ban or tax (heavily) single plastic use production, simple as that.

I could see why lobbyists would push that narrative, but deregulation and an open market worked extremely well in Europe.
There used to be something similar around telephone lines in the US, where bell had to let competitors use the lines at cost or something similar, but that way tends to lie madness because of fights over what the actual cost of maintenance of the infra is and how much of that cost should be borne by the actual owner and how much they can charge middlemen carriers (for lack of better term).

It's extra sad because it didn't have to be this way for internet, but the US chose to privatise public internet infra back under clinton and then double and tripled down under bush. Meanwhile, it still maintains at least 1 set of infra for itself (I don't know if siprnet and jwics use separate cables).

Unsure what material you need to drill. But for some soft materials the solution can be quite simple - freeze it to make it hard!
In my experience of reporting data to non-data-saavy people, I've learned people love maps. Maybe because they like finding their home state/county/city. For whatever reason, they love maps.

I've also learned the hardest part of my job is getting people to read and remember the data. Replacing their preconceived notions is difficult. I'll use any cheap trick (short of showing data inaccurately) to do this. So I make them the maps they love. I use the colors they expect. If I show tables, they're used by experts for further analysis and ignored by the people who actually make decisions.

>The saturated red and blue colors have an almost astrological meaning to people, it's got nothing to do with information.

That meaning is information. Is it the best thing for a nuanced data graphic? No. But showing a nuanced graphic is like handing somebody Principia Marhematica when they ask what 1 + 1 is. Sure, it had the answer. And sure, it's great for people with mathematical skill. But it's overkill most of the time.
True. I saw another poster commenting on a case where a person was being too strict in rationing their (plentiful) food. Which perhaps makes more sense here. If he'd already lost a lot of weight and stamina as a result of that, could've laid down and died shortly after.

I’d like to hear why you think it is terrible when Comcast bans a website but fine when Google/Facebook/Twitter do it. Both groups have monopolistic power. And, if anything, the ISPs are much less powerful and less important than the big tech companies. If anything they should be held to a higher standard.
It's not uncommon, there are various scams esp around e-commerce review boosting gigs that trick you into paying upfront but into different accounts/scan alternate QR codes, once the money is transfered, it's very hard to get it back if not impossible.

The police don't really pursue these cases as the debit card money is all instant and already gone and often small in amount (won't even register it as a case if the money is less than 450 USD), occasionally they will do a blanket operation and arrest some unlucky scammers to make an example, simmilar to irl thefts.

If your are talking about account hacking, SIM swap is quite difficult in China as basically anything is tied to national ID nowadays (even posting comments online, this does provide security to their business model, not to mention they are aggressively pushing facial recognition on the app level, I have to install a local police station app to unlock front door that regularly scans my face and tied to my WeChat, they are conducting census through WeChat BTW), but there are methods such as basestation jamming to force phones back into 2G and intercept text messages, these are fairly uncommon.

As I've said, many of the hard work has already been done by the state or isn't required at all, it's realy a paradise environment for these payment tools, probably only in China.
Makes me wonder about the effort put into the design of it's longevity. It must be an awesome feeling if you worked on it and so many years later there's still tangible value being extracted from it
Sounds like a perfect situation for coops.

As long as they break-even then it's a success.
Most colleges and universities have employment listings on their web sites, so if there are specific places you're interested in, go directly to their sites to start. You could also search more generally for "academic computing" jobs. If there's a specific field you have expertise in, or just a strong interest in, you could also email the heads of departments or labs to ask them if they might have a need you could fulfill (often they don't even list such openings, especially if they're temporary or part-time); those folks are not exactly inundated with emails from interested job-seekers, so your email will stand out and is unlikely to perturb them.
Sounds like a future rife for violation of people's rights in my opinion.

Net neutrality doesn't forbid you from offering+building low latency services (needed by gaming), or from offering+building symmetric internet connections (useful for media upload). "Basic browsing" can be implemented by just giving users a low bandwidth or weekly traffic quotas.

Also, most of the difference in these services lies in the backbone, but that's not where most of the cost lies. The main cost is digging the last mile. Generally, having multiple ISPs put cables to your porch will n-fold their cost. Who's gonna pay for that in the end? You, the customer. It's best to have one ISP lay fiber cabling to your home and then have them rent it out to others, on terms set up by regulators in advance. Maybe that last mile ISP could even be publicly owned.
Is that a benefit of end-to-end tests? Seems more like encouraging more unit tests would discourage bad coding habits if anything.
What do you expect when you try to monopolise a key-value store of static files and attempt to only ship binaries that remove the ability to define your own registry?
A combination of general use and learning.

General: Using T-UI because I'm not a fan of modern touch UIs, but it is limited to Android functions like messages and launching apps. Anything beyond that (SSH, text editing, web calls, etc) I do through Termux. I wish I could combine the two more seamlessly, but it's effortless to switch between the two.

Learning: Wanted to learn to use vim. Termux provided simple vim access and vimtutor. I've also used Termux to freshen up on languages and write a few scripts. Namely, differences between Python2.7 to Python3 which I didn't look into until this year. Starting on C and/or Rust soon.
Very excited.
Pros: This is superb. It's exactly what we need to make remote work accessible everywhere
Cons: Nothing!
Xeon Phi was 2014-era, and had 352 GB/s memory speeds.

Threadripper only has ~100GB/s, best case, across its 4x memory channels. (25.6GB/s at 3200 MT/s). Upgrade to Threadripper Pro or EPYC (8x memory channels) and you're still only ~200 GB/s to main memory bandwidth.

--------

I'm sure Threadripper has more compute (and cache) than Xeon Phi, but a lot of that is 22nm process vs 7nm process.

>hold companies accountable for the damage their products do to the environment

What does this mean? The environment is damaged because so much plastic is consumed. It then follows that to reduce damage to the environment, less plastic must be consumed.

So we have come to the conclusion that we need less plastic to be consumed, the question is how. Obviously no one wants to consume plastic, since plastic is nice and convenient and most importantly, cheap.

Therefore, if you make plastic more expensive, people will consume less of it (since they have limited amounts of money). Also known as a tax.
What high watermark? Was that when MongoDB switched their licensing on v4.0 to force all hosted service providers to open source their entire software stack if they wanted to host it, a requirement they themselves are exempt from with Atlas? Was it in 2017 when Docker locked important pieces of the Docker ecosystem behind the closed-source Enterprise Edition?

Its risky to mistake a golden age of open source with "these companies just had infinite VC funding for a while, before realizing they need a sustainable business". So they try to strike a balance, which makes everyone unhappy because the open source advocates say they're turning back on their promise to the community, while enterprise advocates say they're too focused on hyperscale and not enough on solving actual enterprise problems. Some have survived, some are still in the VC honeymoon phase, many died (RethinkDB, CoreOS, etc).

These companies, and the products they made/make, do not represent a high watermark of open source because generally speaking their products die with them. There's no community to sustain it when the corporate sponsors disappear. And here's the funny thing: If there were a community, if you built a product so awesome that people love it and develop for it and use it by the millions, you're now Docker. The open source gets you to where you are, and now you just handed all of your competitors not just market validation, but the literal specification on what to build. And what it takes to protect from that would make you MongoDB; kinda open source, definitely not FOSS, lots of closed source components, enterprise, no community. Neither of these are model high water mark open source companies, because one is bad open source, and the other is a bad company (financially).

What's the best kind of open source? Code which was written to solve a problem a company (or person) has in their business (or personal life), then released because more people than they are having this problem. Golang? Made at Google as a language that was simpler to write and harder to mess up for engineers right out of college. Rust? Improving Firefox reliability. I almost weep at the strong story behind these projects; the technology wasn't created just to sell, it had a purpose that was validated (to some degree). Not technology for the sake of technology, nor technology directly for the sake of money, but for problem solving. Docker, MongoDB, CoreOS, none of these companies had problems; they invented problems, or inherited problems from previous jobs, then sold solutions.

Building in dense urban areas carries its own set of problems akin to how pushing changes to a live product can be more difficult than hacking one together from scratch.

It requires aligning many stakeholders who often have conflicting interests e.g. all the building owners on the same block.
This is actually a fairly egregious oversight, but it is good to know they fixed it.
Yeah, and I don't hold it against very early stage startups or Show HNs. But if your company has lawyers in-house preparing these texts, that's more surprising then.
A quick web search leads me to believe this is a minor expense. Either way, I expect the true cost of imaging, including the labor of the technician, is miraculous cheaper in developed countries other than America.

Force your local community to build clean waste burning power plants instead of commissioning new landfills and recycle what can be reprocessed locally. Additionally put a tax on each bag of trash to encourage recycling and ban private burning of trash.

Pass a law that requires all vendors of electronics to take back any e waste which then goes to recycling.

Also pass a law that food plastic packaging can be disposed of at the supermaket for free.
It doesn't need to be actively used. It just needs to have the potential to be actively used, and still need to fix it right away in case it is.
... except for the toxic gasses that are released when burning plastic. Dioxins are no joke.

I think of it as double entry bookkeeping. You have to say what you mean two different ways, and those two phrasings have to be reconcilable. This is still a useful guard against careless errors! But it is a different problem from checking whether your software actually does the right thing.

The magnitude of change needed in unit tests while changing code is definitely maddening. For example: add an argument to a method. It's called only 3 places in production code, but each of those sites has 10 test cases, so there are 30 mock expectations to update now. And the IDE doesn't understand those so no automated support.

On the other hand, integration and end-to-end tests will go red when (seemingly) nothing at all has changed, because of drift in tangentially related components from other codebases. Usually the fixes are simple, but it requires a willingness to drop what you're doing and investigate when they happen. Otherwise they just get ignored.

Nah.

> I’d like to hear why you think it is terrible when Comcast bans a website but fine when Google/Facebook/Twitter do it.

In many areas of the country, there is only one ISP available. In my area, there's two, but one only offers very slow DSL; there is a de facto monopoly on meaningful internet service.

This is not the case for social media.

> Both groups have monopolistic power.

That you had to say "Google/Facebook/Twitter" and not just one of them clearly indicates that they do not.

What worries me most is that our devices are being radically over-secured according to a threat model that doesn't include companies that share my data without my permission, but does include open source developers building general-purpose tools. The former are actively encouraged, and the latter are considered collateral damage.
If there was a news site that purely had follow up to old stories, I'd subscribe. The media only provides it for things like trials that people continue paying attention to.

One reason people stall investigations is they know the press will forget after a few months.
fwiw finding a recycling center in California is a pain. It's not like in the northeast where many supermarkets have can/bottle recycling machines. Homeless can collectors often sell the cans for 50% of the value or less to some guy with a pickup truck who can actually get to wherever the far-off recycling center is.

In Germany the problem is that it's a fee that is flat per household, so a young single with barely any income has to pay just as much as a family with 2 incomes or a shared apartment with a bunch of people, each household has to pay the same 210€ per year regardless of number of users or actual consumption.

A lot of the programming is really dated and mostly appealing to somewhat older folks, with tons of regional broadcasters having several versions of folks music festival shows.

There's some interesting online-content aimed at younger audiences like ZDFNeo, Tagesschau does some decent reporting but kills any comment section hours after release, if they open them at all. I enjoy content co-produced with ARTE like documentaries, but all of that has zero retention.

German public broadcasting laws do prohibit them from storing their content for an indefinite time, which the private media industry lobbied for as they feared public broadcasters would build massive libraries "distorting the market". This even applies to publicly funded news portals like Tagesschau [0] where articles will often be deleted after a year or ARTE documentaries that are only streamable for like 3 months, to then vanish in distribution/publisher limbo for sometimes years before they can be bought.

When you are weight constrained the way a space probe is, every factor of safety above the bare minimum is horribly expensive. With no risk to human life and a skilled team of engineers on the ground, the cost of further risk reduction easily may not be worth it.

Not really. Longevity and financials were how we identified stability. If the company had been around for a while and/or could demonstrate that they had enough runway to last for a couple years, then we considered them stable.

We had enough experience with startups who would sell one license to a big company and then throw their logo on the slide that knew the logos didn't mean anything.
