These are pretty outrageous claims you're making, and you'll notice that the people making such claims never have evidence to back it up. Your viewpoints are grounded in thousands of other people in the same echo chamber as you repeating the same claims as a cultural weapon to gain political power, but there's never anything backing it up. I don't care how many people you've convinced to hold these beliefs, it doesn't make it true.

You say that I want to reject contradictory evidence, but you never provide the contradictory evidence. Having a bunch of people convinced that the police are evil isn't contradictory evidence. Having people repeat your viewpoint isn't proof that the viewpoint is correct.

For an extraordinary claim you need extraordinary evidence. For something like your anti-police sentiment (which is funny because now all of the sudden nearly all police are evil, in all states, all counties, no matter the gender or race breakdown of the police, no matter what city/county/state/department laws and procedures are, all of the sudden police are all just evil? That's curious isn't it?) it isn't backed up by evidence. You can link to videos alleging "police brutality" but none of them that I've ever been linked to show such a thing. Of course mistakes are made, when there's millions of interactions between citizens and police every day, a one in a million or even one in a billion mistake still happens, humans aren't perfect. But for the claims you're making there should be extraordinary evidence, and there isn't any.

Now, somebody else in the world will read your comment and in some part incorporate it into their viewpoint, and repeat it elsewhere, just propagating the idea further.
U+FE0E is really interesting, it forces monochrome emoji usage on the immediately preceded emoji (like a skin tone modifier or any other modifier). I have previously run into the issue of the play-pause characters (U+25B6, U+23F8) being inconsistently replaced with their color versions when I was trying to use them in a UI. It looks like this is a great guarantee that that won't happen.

Also is it seems hacker news automatically removes emoji, maybe this modifier would allow them to keep them (in b/w form) and still maintain the polished appearance.
If there's a time at which the stars are born, then there's no paradox. Non-star things can stay cold for the same reason comets stay cold in our universe: they can radiate heat in almost all directions (into the black sky) and receive heat from only a few (like the sun on a brief swingpast, still only < 1% of the sky).

But if the stars have been there forever, the comet is effectively in an oven of uniform temperature. The equilibrium state at which it radiates heat as fast as it gets it has the comet's surface the same temperature as the rest of the oven. So it glows.
> You can't do that with a database either. You have to actually handle the case where it fails.

This is provably false, as evidenced by Postgres's FOR UPDATE locking support. Of course you have to handle the failure, that's what tells you your mutation failed. RDBMS systems can absolutely guarantee that writes are performed atomically. One only needs to look at Aphyr's extensive testing of databases with Jepsen. Claiming this is all bunk is dismissing reality.

You can do sed/awk/jq trivially in Python with no dependencies, other than Python itself. Which is a fewer number of dependencies than a script gluing together sed+awk+jq, each of those being a dependency managed implicitly by your distribution's package manager.

This. This. This.

I'll throw in a few other ideas:

1. 'Opinion' panels should come from both sides of the political isle. Thoughtful panelists should be able to get to the bottom of ideas (instead of getting caught up in partisan minutiae). If they can't have a good discussion they shouldn't be on the panel.

2. Recommendation algorithms _must_ attempt to diversify a user's taste rather than silo them. This is an ethical issue and may hurt the bottom line.

3. Journalists should fundamentally believe bare facts speak for themselves and trust their readership to make the right conclusions. It is patronizing to have it any other way.

4. Context is key - sound bytes and cheap twitter drama are destroying journalistic integrity. Journalism is archaeology of the now. It should be treated with the rigor of a science. Have some respect for yourselves and we will do the same!

It's not that simple. Small businesses, like small anything, are less efficient than larger versions. The inefficiencies inevitably bother customers.

It just so happens that in business, much of that inefficiency is the number of employees required per unit of economic activity. Ultimately all employees are an unwanted cost to the consumer. Small businesses have fewer options to avoid that cost, so they account for more employment.
Caching means that multiple viewers cost very little extra.

I hate this shit, I've only seen the sketchiest sort of spyware, like discord, do it. Browsers should forbid it, since it's a blatant end-run around the limitations a 'web app' would normally have.

Furthermore, browsers even having this ability facilitates inter-protocol exploitation. It's not only local webservers that are put at risk by this, other sorts of local servers can be attacked as well. See CVE-2016-8606 for an example of a browser being used to attack a guile repl.

According to the overwhelming majority of comments on this article over at Reddit, the source of this seems to be dubious and sourced information is circular around this guy Adrian Zenz.

Yeah I think the wider versions get a lot more complicated. memchr is a bit of a sweet spot, since its implementation is relatively simple. And things like glibc end up implementing specialized versions of it for most architectures _and_ instruction set extensions. (So e.g., there's one for SSE2 and for AVX on x86_64.)

And then of course there's PCMPESTRI (and its variants), but that has largely been a failure because of its high latency. :-( That's a shame, because that instruction does accept substrings up to 16 bytes.

That you know of. How many mistakes do you suppose you make that you aren't aware of? Or maybe not even a real mistake, but a perceived "mistake" as seen by the other driver?

I suspect the latter happens far more often than real mistakes, due to information asymmetry - I know exactly what I am doing and intend to do, while I can only guess and infer what you're doing, beyond the very meager data provided by brake lights and turn signals. If your real behavior differs from my expectation, I call you a bad driver who made a mistake, while you really did nothing wrong.

It's an interesting perspective but it doesn't quite capture the relationship here.

I believe most of those big companies fed from Europe but not only from a market perspective but from a technological perspective.

Contrary to what the media try to depict, most of the tech on which those companies are built were designed in Europe and most of the brain that lead them studied in Europe.

I believe Americans are the best to market an idea, as they mostly focus on optimizing for the product market fit. Which produce the biggest market capitalizations.

But long term planning is still mostly done in Europe as it's considered too expensive almost everwhere else in the world, particularly in the states where remnants from the cold war makes the concept of the government pooling money to fund big projects a politicaly incorrect idea.

So the next logical step will be that like last time Americans will not produce anything meaningful for next 20 years which will give the time to Europe to capitalize on their previous innovations and to produce the next generation of ideas, and the cycle will repeat.

But if we wanted to increase the pace of those innovations, some bipartite solutions could be imagined...
As a European citizen I’m hopeful for this regulation. The tech giants would rather police themselves, but they should be subject to oversight to ensure that they don’t abuse their market power.

If this goes well I hope to see more competition and more innovation. I don’t believe that this will send Europe into some digital dark age, if anything it will make it easier for small to medium businesses to compete and innovate.

They’re still a collaborative governmental entity with governments enforcing its laws, so they pass muster as far as being a “State” goes, unless you want to go into specifics about the various treaties and how this is really a treaty organization and blah. In the looks, walks and quacks like a duck, with all the other ducks around treating it like a duck, it’s a bloody government with all the powers that entails, even if enforcement is a matter left to the member nations that do have all of the powers I just outlined. I actually did write recently in a HN comment outlining the difference between the EU and Feds, but in terms of power, the EU is closer to the US Federal Government than to Apple because it still has laws.

Apple is a private organization with a corporate charter, owned by shareholders, controlled by its Board of Directors and with the ability to engage in lawful business activity, with none of the powers that governments have. They don’t have jurisdiction, they have stores. They don’t make laws, they write policies. They don’t levy taxes, they trade. The fees of the App Store are a known quantity, and you can take them or leave them.

So in that light, does it still make sense to try to control Apple like a government entity or treat them like some kind of pseudo-government or rhetorically refer to their business practices using language we use to describe governments? Why do we demand so much more accountability from governments including supranational intergovernmental treaty organizations controlled by governments than we do from private shareholder owned and controlled organizations? Honestly think about it.

Just to be clear, I'm neither arguing for nor arguing against Brexit here.

Personally, I am a politically interested floating voter with no party affiliation. On the specific issue of Brexit, I have always had mixed feelings, for the simple reason that I expect it to have both some good and some bad effects for both the UK and the EU27, and I'm not sure anyone truly knows what the balance between them will end up being in the long term.

Something that does matter to me very much is how we run our governments, and that governments act with popular support and are accountable to their people. On this count, I do indeed make very similar criticisms of the way the EU operates and the way our own system of government operates here in the UK.
It really sounds like you’re problematising this subject. Tell us: which of Apple’s services or platforms have played a significant part in recent sociopolitical events, trends or culture in general?

It will never work in the US until cities get their public transportation act together. Even if I can get to my parent's city, I can't get to their house (without walking many km). Since there isn't good transit (and never has been), they need a place with plenty of space to store a car, and there is no downside to getting way out where transit is hard to serve since transit doesn't serve the types of places they go anyway.

The fix is not easy. But building taj mahal type trains isn't helpful. (simplistic trains might be - using the lower cost to build more is useful). Those of you watching local politics need to scream "NO EXTRAS, only the cheap reliable system done fast" at all local meetings to counter those asking for beauty.
The UK public has been told very little about the EU. There's very little local European news in the British media, and what does appear is often jokey and condescending or slanted in a negative.

A snowstorm in the US will get significant coverage, but an equivalent major weather event in France and Germany won't.

The reality is the British Establishment simply doesn't understand Europe as a social and political project. It has no clue what consensus building, social responsibility, and political integration are for, and simply sees the EU - at least, saw the EU - as an exploitable if rather shifty trading partner.

Now the EU is a competitor, the US has limited interest in the UK, the former commonwealth countries have been looking elsewhere, and the UK's rather minimal level of independent leverage is about to become very obvious.

> And then a giant company sues you for IP violations and you go bankrupt

Is this an issue with the FAANG giants? My sense is initiating IP litigation is more the province of legacy tech companies like IBM and Oracle. (Who aren’t being targeted by these EU laws)

I’ve seen very little examples of Apple, Google, or Amazon initiating patent lawsuits. Especially against small players. If anything most of their lobbying and litigation seems to aim to weaken IP law. (E.g. Google v. Oracle)

I agree with you that intent, scale and common sense matter. Some of this can be included in the law or left up to a judge/magistrate to decide.

Going back to the premise of the article, before we design a privacy law for targeted advertising, we have to agree on what constitutes a level of manipulation so great it effectively takes agency away from those targeted.
> My understanding of the situation is that they were arrested because the police wanted them arrested, plain and simple. Not because they ignored any order, but because the police had the power and the will, though not the legal right, to punish them.

At least we're progressing from "he was arrested for filming" to "police wanted to arrest him" and speculating why.

But we don't need to rely on speculation: The reporter asked why they were being arrested. The police responded that they were arrested because they didn't disperse from an area when they were told to do so. And plenty of people who weren't filming were also arrested. And the nowhere in the CNN article you originally linked to did it claim that their journalist was arrested for filming.

I'm not just taking the police at their word, I'm comparing the police's words to what happened. And it's entirely consistent with what happened. If the police arrested the reporter, and only the reporter then a causal link between filming and the arrest would be more plausible. But the police were arresting other people who were refusing to disperse, too, so their reason is more consistent with the events that occurred as compared to your claim that the police were arresting people for filming.

At this point I, too, have concluded I'm not talking to someone arguing in good faith. You're making an assertion based on preconceived notion about how the police behave and operate, ignoring the fact that this isn't at all consistent with the events that transpired, and accusing people who point this out of arguing in good faith. There isn't anything more to discuss here.

Well for one, there are 2x as many cows in America today than there ever were bison.

For 2, we “turn” cows faster by killing them to eat them (rather than letting nature sort it out). So that 2x is then multiplied by some factor

For 3, our consumption habits have exported the cow to new environments where bison were not native (like Brazil).
