I actually like AWS' control panel. It's utilitarian to the extreme, but it actually works.

GCP on the other hand has all the hallmarks of a heavyweight JS framework app, including:

- Infinite loading screens

- Very poor error handling

- Extremely sluggish UI (clicks feel delayed)

- Very slow

You can notice this kind of stuff across all of Google's recently revamped properties. For example, I'm on a gigabit connection on an i9 computer and Gmail takes forever to load and if I quickly hit the search box and start typing every 2nd or 3rd character is missed because it's thrashing JavaScript during boot (why is the search box there if it isn't ready?).
I do get the argument, but I do believe it's a pedantic point that's being taken a bit too far. The topic is still worth discussing, without giving up because there's a theoretical point that we cannot prove the causality.

We can start out with the assumption that humans can feel, since ourselves experience it, and can relatively safely transfer this to other humans (who exhibit all the subjective external signs of feeling, which seem similar to our own external signs when we are feeling things). We can also isolate the physiological properties which seem to play a role in this; say, a nervous system, or particular brain characteristics or region activations. This can be further evidenced by cases where individuals lack these, and lack the external signs of the feeling.

So if you then take a physiologically highly related and similar animal to a human, which also shows the external signs of feeling, I believe the argument that it is NOT feeling would be the option that is more absurd, and requires more proof than the argument that says it is feeling.

Of course, this rapidly falls away when we argue about very different types of creatures (say, fungi), or when theorising about types of feeling that might be possible, but we do not have, but nevertheless the entire topic is not worthless, IMHO.
I think the idea is that they never went to court.
You can have and use TV and not pay, so long as you can reasonably show you are not receiving live broadcasts (if it ever came to a warrant being issued). Not having it plugged into an aerial and the channel presets not tuned is considered proof enough.

I'd guess with more and more watching via the internet they probably have far more success catching people watch live broadcasts via IP addresses and ISP logs these days though.

Lines are blurry in Germany sometimes, sure. But outlets like the ARD, and a lesser extent ZDF (there are some legal differences between the two, including independance) are way more neutral regarding the ruling, or major, parties like, say, Fox News and the GOP. And they have been, regardless of government coalition. They still are as far as their pure news formats are concerned, much mre "just the facts" then anything else I ever saw in the US. Their more "opinion" heavy pieces are different, but still are far cry from opinion pieces in the US, e.g. Hannity or O'Donnel. And that by itself is a good thing.

Austrians public broadcasters, the ORF, are way better than that even. They mutineed against the attempt to install pulitical operatives at the head of the organisation. They even end interviews with gvernment secretaries if they don't get strsaight answers.

Oops just realised I didn't answer the price question. It's hard to give a price. Our pod and rail would have been $300k +- 50k new. A top end in that range could be up around $750k. The low end maybe $150k.

If you're using VS Code or WebStorm/IntelliJ (and doubtless any other editor which has its own internal copy of TypeScript and uses its language service) you can write JavaScript and still get most of the benefits of using TypeScript without buying into the tooling - it's my preferred way to make use of it.

e.g. for VS Code, stick a jsconfig.json in your project's root:

{
"compilerOptions": {
"checkJs": true,
"target": "es2020"
}
}

If you want TypeScript to know about the types in your project, or help it with stuff it can't figure out on its own you can add them using JSDoc comments:

https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/jsdoc-supported...

The best thing is if TypeScript is being silly about your working code (its type definitions for the DOM can be particularly painful to work with), you can just ignore it :)

This comparison is ridiculous. The license fee is a little outdated in certain aspects but it covers more than just broadcast news as the orgs you mentioned do.

The BBC has a broad remit to inform, educate, and entertain. Not in itself radically different to a lot of other broadcasters, and typical for a public service broadcaster, but the universal license fee is a key differentiator.

In requiring everyone with a television to contribute, the BBC has a duty to serve the entire population of a country, regardless of their income or demographic. This enables the BBC to produce content that may not be commercially viable for privately funded broadcasters that in term can serve communities that would otherwise be overlooked. BBC's Three and Four channels tend to best exemplify this aspect with content that can often be slightly niche and, in the case of Three, regularly have casts and production crews that are far more diverse than the industry averages.

The license fee is also independent of the state budget. The Government does have the power and oversight to adjust funding every 5-11 years, but the royal charter ensures that funding is separate from typical taxation and avoids the Treasury. This also ensures (in theory) that there is more autonomy for accurate, fair, and unbiased news reporting.

The BBC has also for most of its existence operated and maintained a lot of shared broadcasting infrastructure (which admittedly is less key as viewing moves away from terrestrial broadcast and towards IP services, and to a lesser extent cable and satellite). In the previous charter they also had a responsibility to improve broadband infrastructure in rural areas.

There's also a final aspect to this in that the BBC performs a lot of public service open research into emerging technologies as well as the social impact of them and different forms of media. Most media organisations don't care about anything other than how much of a person's attention they can capture at the expense of everything else. More eyes on a media org = more advertising sold. The BBC's model means they can actually give consideration to what healthy consumption is and how to promote digital wellbeing etc., as well as ensuring younger audiences are better catered for (there's a great article on how YouTube Kids has severely let down its young audiences in the past here: https://medium.com/@jamesbridle/something-is-wrong-on-the-in... )

You’re constantly steering the conversation somewhere else, aren’t you?

The meta-analysis idea wasn’t terrible. It’s just that there’re many assumptions in a statistical sense, the founder might not be the right person to implement it and he might have targeted the wrong market. Some people are under the impression that everything can be solved just by build an app. However, some fields are much more complicated than your gig economy food delivery.

I remember when I was doing my engineering degree asking my Electrical Engineering lecturer if he thought they could tell the difference between black and white and colour TVs. He thought not, which saved me a few quid.

Also worth noting that there is a campaign in the UK to get non-payment of license fees decriminalised and made into a civil offence.

"In 2017 (latest data available), 72 per cent of all prosecutions for TV licence-fee evasion were against women.

This figure is so high that licence-fee evasion accounted for 30 per cent of all prosecutions against women, the single most common charge."

That's a very interesting idea. However cycling is also hugely popular in protestant countries, eg Netherlands or the UK. And other sports share this fascination with suffering. For example in mountaineering one of the most famous stories is that of Joe Simpson going down a remote mountain in the Andes with a broken leg and no food or water over several days.
Because the broadcasters need politicians and courts to confirm that the TV protection money is constitutional.

It is protection money: You haven't ordered any service and if you don't pay they'll make you pay and ruin your credit score in the process.

In the collection process they pretend to be a government institution to avoid going through local courts, which sometimes are against them.

EDIT: Also, I'm beginning to wonder why any criticism of the German government or especially state TV is being downvoted here. Civil servants have a lot of time ...

Screen2: describe what is wrong

Screen3: "based on your answers and your geolocation you can get these 3 remedies which are safe" or if something extreme is going on "please see the doctor, in the mean time you can use aspirin to relieve your pain"

*I usually call mom when I have headache, temperature or diarrhea cause I constantly forget which one should I take. I'm 30:-( I would use such app for these hints. For anything more serious I would go to doctor and wouldn't self medicate.

Agreed with your push-back on the sample size thing being operative (this is a point I've made frequently on HN study threads), and agree that the primary design consideration is the post-"treatment" measurement of the outcome making it more likely that having an autistic kid changes metabolites than that having different metabolites influences chance of having an autistic kid.

Still, even with contemporaneous measurement, my guess is that there'd be a very real selection issue here; a non-random subset of people who could receive an autism diagnosis do, and to the extent the confounders into diagnosis (one presumes all the standard SES/race/access to healthcare factors are confounders here) constitutes a selection on the dependent variable, even a contemporaneous sample would not generalize to the population of interest.
Unfortunately the only demographic that really kept watching Austrian stations is pensioners, and sports fans (the amount of skiing tournaments on our main station in winter is ridiculous).

Everyone else often had cable or SAT, which gave you all the German and also Swiss networks, particularly the private ones, where the program is aimed at different demographics (also possible because of vastly larger pockets: German ad market >> Austrian ad market)

At least ORF tried to modernize its image, but do you want to lose your main demographic as well? Can you compete (financially) with German private TV and pay TV? Not to mention Netflix, Disney+, etc? There is not really a way out.

So were stuck with Skiing, Austrian Soccer, Tatort and Gaming show clones. At least there is a lot of cooperation/joint shopping with German and Swiss (public) stations.

The self-created German content could be worse though. Tatort can be quite nice, it is not aiming to be CSI - and that can be a good thing.
May I ask where you get your information from?

I am genuinely curious. I googled it, and while the exact circumstances don't seem to be clear yet, it doesn't sound like murder to me. It sounds as if most likely the officer was hurt in a brawl between rioters and police (being hit in the head with a fire extinguisher). While that is still awful, murder requires murderous intent and planning (afaik).

Therefore, it seems really interesting what sources gave you the impression it was murder.

On the other hand I remember a police officer being shot during BLM riots, while he tried to protect a business. So by your logic, is it reasonable to assume that BLM activists would murder their opponents without second thought?

Did people throw bricks during BLM protests? That seems roughly the equivalent to throwing fire extinguishers, accepting that somebody could be severely hurt or even die.

The Internet makes trying to enforce world wide privacy laws much harder than physical laws: anyone in the world can reach you and collect data about you.

> Just make it outright illegal and fine heavily per violation. You have profile information that a user didn't explicitly give you? $10k fine, each.

Your reading preferences are not the gold standard in what makes
a good book or makes one "literate". The same applies to every
other single individual.

At the same time the internet obviously doesn't only contain
"dopamine chasing snippets of BS". Online discussions and
articles can improve critical thinking or make someone think
deeper about their views and motivation just like literature
can. Yet you deny that by bluntly saying all people reading no
books are illiterate.

As a side note, before you start gatekeeping literacy you may
want to avoid grammar mistakes in your own writing. Though it will not
make your point come across less elitist, unfortunately.
Well, actually ... one of the best lessons from the interwar period is that political parties must be forbidden from keeping their paramilitary units.

Because at the moment of the coup, well-organized paramilitary units (SA or Czechoslovak People Militias or Italian Camicie Nere) were always the crucial factor in success, and not just a mob of random rabble aroused by someone's speech.

All the later hotspots on the European map (North Ireland, Basque Country, Corsica) broke this rule and the local irredentist parties had a "political wing" and a "militant wing".
