Yes, part of the Brexit agreement was the UK "domesticating" some parts of EU law by passing them as UK legislation. There is now a law called UK-GDPR, which is literally a copy-paste of GDPR, with names of EU institutions find-and-replaced with their UK equivalents.

There are still some operational differences, around the fact that the UK regulators will not participate the cooperation mechanisms that the other regulators will. This ends up mattering for businesses: a significant aspect of GDPR was that a company only ever had to deal with one regulator, but now they need to interface with one for the EU and a second for the UK.

Those higher voltage weedwackers are very impressive. I've used one that was somewhere north of 40v, and it was closer to a brush-cutter than a weedwacker. I had to turn it down to a lower setting to prevent damaging the things I was trimming around.
> If the law doesn't take effect for 3 years then all equipment will have been replaced by the normal cycle.

I have personally seen such equipment remain in use for 15-20 years. When I was young the lawnmower we used was a monstrous Craftsman that was originally built 20 years prior. It was used year-round for that period for everything from snow removal, lawn mowing, and hauling landscaping supplies (retaining wall blocks and the like).

You would likely be surprised at the level of care and maintenance some small business owners put in.
An Airline IPO? In This Economy?
Do you have any evidence for that at all, or is this standard counterfactual leftist revisionism?

Also, if Dr. Seuss was always so racist, how come the left embraced him until very very recently?

Are you seriously claiming that all the many people on the left, including Obama, were embracing a clear and known racist as recently as a few months ago?
I think that is unclear.

People seems to care just as much as ever when they are called a slur, and are even more offended when they see them used in non-malicious ways
Cheats themselves are basically rootkits, and you can't beat a rootkit when you are running on top of it. Anti-cheat pretty much has to be like this.

Server side enforcement is not only heavy, but has much of the same problems as the client side. It's running on a layer even higher than the client side anti-cheat. How can you tell if someone is running an aimbot or just has good aim? Sure if they do something outright impossible you could ban them, but heuristic approaches are going to have problems with false positives as well as false negatives.
Not if it is not taken seriously, but it is sinister when public schools decided to make the book a mandatory reading and teach it to kids.
> a TV tax (a yearly fee you must pay by government mandate as a result of owning a type of device irrespective of use

That's not the case in the UK. You only need a TV license if you use equipment to receive a live TV programme (which is something that falls under the remit of OFCOM[1] - not a livestream of Everyday Astronaut), or if you use BBC's iplayer.

[1] Specifically from 2003 communications act

“television programme service” means any of the following—
* a television broadcasting service;
* a television licensable content service;
* a digital television programme service;
* a restricted television service [consists in the broadcasting of television programmes for a particular establishment or other defined location, or a particular event, in the United Kingdom, which is licensable by OFCOM]

> lawn service gets more expensive

Assuming the lawn services can pass the cost along to customers. Given the low barriers to entry, I would not make this assumption.

In reality, a mix of total wage decreases (i.e. reduction in hours, benefits and/or hourly wage), supplier payment decreases, profit decreases and price increases will incorporate the change. Also, if an outfit cannot afford the capital cost of upgrading their equipment, they will fold.

Exactly. This where I disagree with the left camp when they paint corporations as evil. No, big companies are not inherently evil. They played by the rules that, you, in congress laid out. It is foolish to expect a profit driven entity to do things out of the goodness of their heart when their competitors are utilizing the rules available to them. It like saying a football team is evil because they are physically tackling their opponents.
Fair point. You are totally right that my description of myself aligns with historical understandings of gender. I was failed to be explicit about my inclusion of my experience of our work/domestic/(implicit and explicit) power balance in my usage. That I "don't feel like I fit" traditional roles definitely contains bias as that is also the view I would like to have of myself.

The reason we appear to have the 1950s responsibility split is my wife sold her business (not HN-levels of success, hence me keeping my job) concurrent with discovering she was pregnant. She didn't have the next thing lined up so she has decided to enjoy being a full-time mother. When she finds the right fit there is a good chance that I will jump to being a full-time parent to support her career aspirations from the domestic side. Presently I do 5 hours of childcare on a normal workday (0600-0900[alone], 1700-1900[with wife]). I would far prefer to do 10 (the entirety of their waking hours).

> To me the issue has always been allowing other to define success for you.

I still find it embarrassingly easy to fall subject to "keeping up with the Jonses" thinking. I hope that ends as some point as I don't want to pass that on to my kids the way it was to me. It sounds like you have gotten over this hurdle so I would definitely like to hear how you did it.
Then, if I'm understanding this correctly, the default setup in Ubuntu (at least in Ubuntu 20.04, which I happen to have installed on a couple of laptops recently), which has been mentioned both in this discussion and in the lwn.net article discussion, should be safe from the bug, since that setup, if you enable full-disk encryption, sets up two LVM partitions, one for root (called "vgubuntu-root") and one for swap (called "vgubuntu-swap"). They show up as separate LVM partitions in fdisk. The swap appears to me to just directly use the "vgubuntu-swap" partition.
An Android version would be great. The mobile web is becoming harder and harder to use.
A sample of leaf blowers sold in the UK [1] shows power ratings of 2500-3000W. They will use the standard 240V power supply.

Don't most American houses have at least one 240V socket in the garage, for use with garden/garage equipment? (Otherwise, where do you plug in an electric car if you're visiting relatives, for example?)

[1] https://www.argos.co.uk/browse/garden-and-diy/lawnmowers-and...
Great move. The mostly North American leaf-blower addiction is so annoying. A good old rake will do the trick. Never understood the need to blow leaves around in a windstorm, as I’ve seen it practiced in the northeastern US.
They also never took off because the power you can get from the wall just isn't quite enough. They work, but if you compare to an engine or battery they obviously are lacking. I pull out my cordless drill for the biggest holes I need to make because it has more power (for a minute until the battery goes dead...), though there isn't much room between not enough power from the wall and needing a drill press on a more powerful circuit anyway.
I think what the OP meant about nested loops was that you can't directly write an inner loop that conditionally continues with the outer loop. In Scheme you'd write a named LET inside a named LET, with the inner one invoking the outer in a branch of an IF. With Clojure's loop/recur, as I understand it, you'd have to make the inner loop return a flag for the outer loop to test again about whether to recur, because the only construct you have for continuing a loop is 'recur'.

This is not a rare situation. Am I missing something about how Clojure does it?

My Lisp dialect (Cant) has a construct like the named LET, but with the name being optional (defaulting to 'loop'). This makes simple loops as concise as Clojure's, and fancier ones as flexible as Scheme's.
I know you're joking, but this is highly useful in this regard, because flat-earthers often swear up & down that they can see beyond the "ostensible" horizon limit without understanding that refraction effect. This one is kind of unique but it demonstrates refraction nicely.

Really, I think we're usually so busy being dismissive and condescending towards flat-earthers, it's easy to forget that proving the spherical earth is kind of a tricky matter without putting people in spaceships (but if I could afford it, I'd happily buy a few tickets for them...)
if you want to make diagrams in a digital format, I'd suggest using something like graphviz rather than drawing

but, if you want to be able to draw as a skill, and be able to use that in both paper/canvas/board and digital media like a tablet

then draw every day, and if it's a diagram, ask someone if what you wanted to convey is understood or not, or if it's a picture (like a portrait or a landscape) draw it several times (can be once a day) until you (and optionally someone else) consider it "good enough" (as in, to improve upon it further, you'd really be gettin on the plateau on the curve of diminishing returns)

I think there was a Show HN where a guy learned to make realistic self-portraits in about a month or so, though maybe the skills needed to do that are not the same as the ones for making diagrams, it might interest you, depending on what you want
The license is mandated (in certain circumstances), however the funds are collected by the BBC directly.

There was a time when I loved playing JRPGs, which can become a mindless grind if you're trying to maximize a character for fun.

I still like them, but on an emulator, with cheats for easy experience or money. I enjoy the story without the grind, and although I lost the perseverance and endurance I had then, I don't think I'll ever have the time (or the patience) to play them properly again.

You lost something to gain something else.

It is certainly not for plugins, as there libraries to call that API from python, ruby and others which are then not meant to be run in the browser.

My point, is that if you want to build an editor of Google Docs, then you can do it, there is an API to get the doc format and an api to make modification to that document

Traditionally, by saying they have the wrong personalities.
I don't think I understand what you mean.

It's possible that it was fairly widespread, and some people were dying (and perhaps being reported to ILInet, etc), but not enough to cause a notable increase in population-level mortality for anybody to notice.

There is ongoing conjecture on this point all over expert circles.
Frankly I believe Proton is better for the longevity of these games on Linux. It's not uncommon for native Linux versions of games to break over time, or become a hassle to use as they rely on old unmaintained libraries.

Win32/Proton is almost like a framework game developers can target and not have to worry about OS specifics.

Again, everything you're saying is legitimate, but it completely ignores the elephant in the room, the big elephant, the monopoly power, the concentrated distribution and unprecedented centralization over the flow of information and broadcast media. Whether it's YouTube, Google search results and playstore access, Facebook, and many more, we are all concerned when a new one is added, such as Ebay.

Yes, we won't be sending people with the naughty Dr. Seuss books to the gulag. No one is saying that. We're concerned about monopoly power combined with wokist ideology.

It's amazing that the city of Oakland has time for this but no time to enforce the law or hold arrested criminals accountable with actual charges. They've made no real progress on the streak of crimes against Asians committed by what seems like mostly African American suspects, and have been hesitant to use the 'hate crime' label which they use generously in other situations. Meanwhile, police chief LeRonne Armstrong arrested an Asian shopowner who legally used his firearm in defense (https://www.ktvu.com/news/oakland-cops-reluctant-to-arrest-s...). Even though the shopowner was later released with no charges (https://www.eastbaytimes.com/2021/03/02/no-charges-for-oakla...), it gives away the lopsided politics and priorities of Oakland. And now here we are, with the city leadership spending time on minutia instead of the real problems that plague the bay.

Regarding this ban - I can understand upholding noise codes, but the reality is that electric leaf blowers and trimmers are nowhere near as good and have limited run times. They are simply not a good substitute. Rather than banning them, I would rather see the cost of the externalities priced in or maybe a tighter number of hours when such equipment can be used. In general, the government should not get into the habit of controlling individual actions via widely-scoped hard bans.

The MIT Club of Northern California posted a video a few years ago on this exact topic and reactor:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkpqA8yG9T4

This thing came out of MIT, at least according to the video, and was really the collective efforts of a bunch of MIT grad students who made the breakthrough partially by taking a very Silicon Valley startup approach of using off-the-shelf parts, experimenting with new ideas, and starting small. I don't know if Professor Whyte framed it that way to appeal to the crowd or not.

I bought a reel mower for my smaller yard. No charging, minor effort to keep it clean, stays sharp for a long time (at some point I'll have to deal with that, but it's been good so far), no gas, essentially no noise. It takes me just as long to mow my yard as with an electric or gas mower, though I do have to mow it twice a week during the peak growing season (it does not handle tall grass very well). But 20-30 minutes of walking & pushing exercise is not terrible twice a week, I run, row, and cycle a lot more than that. Last year I treated it as a warmup and followed it up with a 30+ minute run.
That's all I found. GUI isn't very easy to benchmark, to be honest.

Are you saying agriculture cause humans to lose the ability to create vitamins (specifically C)? I don't think that is true, at least according to Nature:

https://www.nature.com/scitable/topicpage/the-mystery-of-vit...

The article posits the loss of Vitamin C to be much earlier:

Notably, not only all humans, but also gorillas, chimps, orangutans, and some monkeys have this inborn genetic flaw, meaning that the loss of vitamin C biosynthesis must have occurred first in one of our primate ancestors.
Google and Twitter have been offering data exports for ages though, but importing that data into different products often required either purchasing shitty propriety software or using scripts that were hacked together and abandoned on someone's GitHub. Don't know if there's something similar for Microsoft and Apple though, but in the end this is just a standardized API on top of already existing APIs and no one involved had to reinvent the wheel here.

I'd be surprised if this wasn't a widely requested feature that all involved companies have been ignoring in their backlogs for too long and now they've accelerated this, got management approval and finally managed to get a couple of senior engineers together because of impending legislation that might force their hand.
Rakes are so much more efficient, I find. And an opportunity to just chill. I don’t understand the leaf-blowers. In the US, I’ve seen so many so many lawn service guys just blowing leaves around in the wind - just because they’re paid to do it once a week. Nuts.

You shouldn't make any decisions on it, but it's striking that it works at all. It would be interesting to know why.

I have my suspicions about that, which are that people tend to mimic those they see around them. Which could well extend to how they hold their faces unconsciously. It would be not unlike the way we develop similar accents to those around us, just with different muscles. But that's a hypothesis that would have to be tested.

Sadly, if it holds up, it almost certainly would lead to people making real world decisions.

As odd as this may sound, this is not an impediment to current nuclear fission deployment. The risks are small, and many populations are very willing to accept them.

According to your take no book has ever been banned in the US and people who complained about book banning were clutching pearls.

Man, isn't it just fantastic how easily you make my point for me. This is also the viewpoint that Dr Seuss' publishers imagined the public at large would hold, so accordingly they have ceased to publish a book that represents "Africans" with this picture:

The study looked at political orientation (liberal versus conservative or left versus right), not political affiliation (Democrat versus republican). 89% of African Americans vote Democrat for complex historical and sociological reasons. But they have a large diversity of political opinions: https://press.princeton.edu/ideas/the-roots-of-black-politic.... About 30% of Black people today identify as conservative, versus 10% in 1970. But Democratic Party affiliation has been in the 90% range throughout that whole period.
Having seen how other companies make the sausage, I can take a guess.

To Nintendo, marketing is not a "core" business function, so when the company was sorting out GDPR, no one invited them to the room and they didn't ask to be invited. When companies think about "what data do I have" they tend to get tunnel vision to their main business operations. I bet Nintendo has robust processes for their online gaming services. No one ever seems to think about the twenty dozen Google Analytics accounts they're all running, and a good fraction of them don't even think about their CRM systems.
