Only at the conditions imposed by the IMF. Usually that means the state has to steer away from anything that could be profitable and focus only on what is not palatable to foreign capital.

It also means states can't apply import taxes, thus making their industries instantly obsolete. It's pretty much a huge transfer of wealth from inside to outside.
"Legitimate interest" is an euphemism for "it makes us money".
"Flash" was the creation environment: code IDE + vector design + timeline animation tool. "Flash Player" was the portable applet-style runtime.

> not really a fan of resurrecting Flash

Sounds like you're not a fan of resurrecting Flash Player. The previous poster (GP) was pining for a resurrection of Flash. You're talking about different things.
The context is about licenses, and the correct answer is
"do not use a license". It is an unethical, evil system, or else there is no such thing as "unethical" and "evil".

Does a carpenter make a family sign a license restricting
how they use their roof? No. Does a plumber get a license
dictating how the toilets may be used? No. Does a janitor
get license royalties after cleaning a room? No.

Here is big tech's dirty secret: the insane profits and
salaries are due to an unjust, unethical, unproductive
system of #ImaginaryProperty, enforced by violence.

In my experience most people on HN do not want to hear that.
They want to pretened that somehow the hours they spend in
the day are really 1,000x more productive than the average
Jim. But that's just not true. Tech gets unequal wages due
to important work but mostly bad laws.

As people wake up to this what you will start to realize is
that the biggest ideas, the ones that change the world, that
win in the hearts and minds of the people in the long run,
have no licenses. Licenses are for losers.
It's like C++ is a gas-powered chainsaw and Rust is a newfangled electric "smart" chainsaw.
So let me understand this, Twitter, which banned it's own United States President, is now removing itself from responsibility of banning other nation's presidents many of whom call for genocide and violence and are stated enemies of Twitters parent country?
Indeed. More like "random person on the Internet's preferred macOS settings".
Also, the population of Cairo is growing by about 2% a year. That means it will double in about 35 years.

Looking at https://www.macrotrends.net/cities/22812/cairo/population, that’s a slight slowdown from the 30 years it took them to go from 5 to 10 million or from 10 to 20 million, and looking at https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/EGY/egypt/population-g..., it may slow down further, but they need to build a lot of houses fast to accommodate that.

I don't know why the CDC is saying that, it's just flat out wrong unless the CDC has a really stupid definition of "related".

It's related. They both involve the same protein. If you get a bone marrow transplant from someone with CJD, you will get "vCJD". Presumably also if you eat the brains of someone with CJD. The differential between the two is age of onset.

How Us Shady Geeks Put Others Off Security
It just seems like a very thin layer of plausible deniability, in the current setup they control wallets that send the transactions that also can be linked back to them.
They followed the policies the OP is talking about though. That's their point: you need to protect your exporting industries early on so they can develop and become efficient. Then you can protect them less as they become higher quality/more productive. All of the countries you listed did this. India has a bunch of economic problems, many of which are self inflicted.
I scrolled through the first few and every single one was either something I didn’t like or a bad idea.
One possibility is signed PDF's. You can verify that the corporation created the document, that it has not been changed. That is more security than a piece of paper. You can forge a document.

I felt that they are believably nuanced and not obviously "female as imagined by male", but their depth is, in most books, only hinted at because there isn't much text spent on them. So I would say what is there is good, but there isn't that much.

The ones with the most detail are the female main character from The Spy Who Came In From The Cold and Conny, the retired researcher. Conny is easily the most interesting. The estranged wife Anne is the main one about whom I really would have liked to read more. Did I forget someone?

What the Marvel / DC Cinematic Universe Can Teach Us About Software Development?
The Marvel vs. DC cinematic universes have drastic differences in the way they were created and the results that each have reaped so, with the release of the Snyder Cut of Justice League today, I thought it might be interesting to take a deep dive into how it all went down and see what lessons could we learn and apply in software development processes.

Why not using HyperV itself instead of Vbox?
I have met folks who pronounce it like "Juarez" but where I grew up it was "wares." IMO the latter makes much more sense because it's likely derived from "software(s)". But so much discussion about warez was nonverbal, it doesn't surprise me that the word took on different pronunciations.
Norway became a unified independent Kingdom in 872 and entered a union with Sweden and Denmark in 1397. Sweden left the union in 1523, leaving Norway in union with Denmark until 1814 when Norway was transferred to a union with Sweden as a part of the aftermath of the Napoleonic wars. Norway regained full independence in 1905.

I am not sure which year Frozen is supposed to be set in, but I would assume either before or just after the Unification in 872.

> For the same reason there is little to no universal health care, welfare, retirement, workers rights, or higher education system — the US values short-term profit over basic humanity.

It's interesting how easy it is to take someone's political opinion and derive the worst possible motivation out of it. Each one of these statements requires someone to provide the service. I do not require anything out of anyone else in order to exercise the variety of rights protected by the Bill of Rights. Should "access to Healthcare" become a right, it has to be provided by someone for free or paid for by someone else. There are people who are willing to work for free, or for less than what the skill-level should arguably require, but there are many more people who won't.

For many, going to school for 7 years to become a surgeon is motivated by the lifestyle/paycheck that being a good surgeon can offer. For many, having to pay for healthcare keeps them from using the services unnecessarily, and not getting care. In countries where universal healthcare exists, some people who need care wait in line for it. Neither are good outcomes. But summarizing an opposing political viewpoint with "Those guys are just dumb/evil" rather than trying to understand the complexity of all of the issues involved (even if the outcome is "good for you" but "bad for someone else" and being willing to weigh those two outcomes as equal with participants who have an equal right to their life/liberty/property) is one of the reasons we are where we are in America.
Front endless Rails 7.0 front end
As known so far about Rails 7.0:
* It is targeted for release at Railsconf 2021 (April 12~15)
* They're making Hotwire the default
* It will require Ruby 2.7+

By the Program of this RailsConf will be a large one with more than 60 high quality talks, which make us have a glimpse of what is comming in the near future about WebDesign, will this version will disrupt it again? Like a mark in the end of the frontend as we know!?
Most of your points are straight up racist/xenophobic.

> Apple Told Some Apple TV+ Show Developers Not To Anger China

I guess asking the mainstream media, which has for decades denigrated Asians constantly, to tone it down a little is just too much to ask?
Creating and mounting a loop-volume within the HGFS and then running NPM in there, would probably also be helpful. It certainly is when wrangling a directory with lots of tiny inodes over SMB. (It’s also what Apple themselves do for running Time Machine over SMB: they create a sparsebundle image on the remote and mount it locally, and write to that.)

(The efficient thing about this class of solutions, if you’re wondering, is that the client mounting the loop-image ends up owning + managing the loop-image’s internal filesystem’s metadata within its own local disk cache, such that it can coalesce filesystem metadata writes and only push a new copy of the disk-image blocks backing the filesystem metadata after a potentially-huge number of changes. With a network/host-guest filesystem, meanwhile, every filesystem metadata change must become its own synchronous message to the host, to be pushed to the host’s filesystem driver for linearization, so it can succeed or fail relative to other things going on within the host.)
> Surely that is a worthwhile law?

to an extent yes. I think there is some value in having a "cool-off period". many problems in life do not seem so bad a year, a month, or even a week later. but there are also people who are physically well but live their entire lives in misery. I don't think our current system treats them humanely.
It’s a little more complicated, involving the invasion and 780 year foreign rule by the Moors over Spain. The Catholic resistance began immediately and eventually triumphed. And of course Catholic kings were often bad. What does that have to do with it? Secular humanists have also committed atrocities under their philosophy. They were all wrong. The Catholic Church is still the one true church.
I've gotten a couple of US jobs via HackerNews's Who's Hiring thread. They weren't paying levels.fyi money, but were healthily into six figures range. I abandonded them over time, because I can make more in Europe without dealing with time zone and culture differences.
Heh, it works both ways, eh China ?
Then it needs a new business model.
Not OP, but my bank keeps pushing me to get their app to deposit checks. My phone doesn't do apps and I don't feel like taking up space on my tablet. Besides, there's a branch with a drive-through three minutes away from my house and another one a block away from work, so it's not that much time or travel and I get to talk to somebody outside of home or work for a few minutes. (Even if some of that time is spent declining their suggestion to get the app.)

Got myself AMD FX-8350 a decade ago, used it daily with minor overclocking and replaced with Ryzen 3950X last year. This old FX-8350 went into dedicated Linux machine for things I weren’t able to do with virtual one. I am curious how long will it run:-)
> The article seems to argue that it's hard to run more code after the completion of a goroutine. But, the entire point is you don't have to. Go does async i/o under the hood, so you just write the lines of code sequentially in the order you want them to happen, and they will happen at the right time.

That seems a little hard to believe. If I do this:

db, _ := sql.Dial("")
defer db.Close()
go myFunc(db)

It will close my DB connection while myFunc is still running (assuming myFunc isn't trivial enough that it sometimes runs before the close can happen).

The author seems like they were more concerned about how 'go' tends to break abstractions. The additional flow control means that I do actually have to care how the library is implemented. I have to understand how they handle the lifecycle of objects I pass in, and then I have to figure out how to stop their stuff (and to stop it at the right time). DB connections are one of the things in Go that are frequently not closed or not closed correctly. The lack of a "with" kind of statement requires me to write a bunch of IPC so I can tell goroutines to quit, then wait for them to quit, and then finally close the connection. A lot of people (myself included when I'm being a bad programmer) just call 'os.Exit' and figure the DB will clean up the stale connections.

They didn't exactly ignore them.

A WTO member can either comply with their treaty obligations (e.g. reducing barriers to trade) or have other members apply their own remedies (e.g. punitive tariffs.)

If the effect of compliance is worse than the punishment (e.g. underdeveloped industry eliminated by foreign competitors vs. continuing to operate despite high tariffs) they'll not comply.

If the punishment is worse (e.g. industry is basically competitive, but tariffs would make products hard to sell in foreign countries) they'll choose compliance.

At the bilateral level, there's not much difference to the pre-WTO situation, which might make you wonder whether it's all pointless. The advantage of the WTO is that it provides a shared target for compliance: if a country follows WTO rules, pretty much every other member will be happy with that. Which is a bigger incentive than having to please every trading partner individually.
it sounds like this particular person did so and figured it out relatively quickly, based on the thread. the things being done were more complex than what some of my relatives can do.
It is inspired by SICP, but in the sense that it fixes what the authors consider to be problems with SICP's approach. They've published various papers on their criticisms of SICP, eg http://www.ccs.neu.edu/scheme/pubs/jfp2004-fffk.pdf

Short writes to (local) filesystems are rare in practice, unless you run into kernel limits (e.g., Linux stops a couple KB short of 2GB). When they do happen, it's often due to issues that are hard to recover from, like failing media or lack of disk space.

You're right that short writes can cause data loss; however, self-synchronisation guarantees that only the two records immediately adjacent to the short write can be affected (with a reasonable implementation, at most one... and if you prefix each record with the 2-byte separator, only if the write is cut short after the sepearator's first byte).
Thats not how the economy works. Walmart profits don't get "invested" in the States. They get invested into Walmart. The wages and taxes those wages fuel always gets applied locally. Nothing is being "extracted". Thats just nationalist bullshit used to fuel protectionism.

This release includes a long-requested feature for this simple flashing utility. You can now press Shift + Ctrl + X to bring up an advanced settings dialog, and configure many common boot config options, like:

- Enable SSH
- WiFi configuration
- Locale settings (and disable the guided wizard on first boot)
- Overscan enable/disable
- Default hostname
- Whether or not the disk is ejected after flashing

For those of us who almost always use Pis headless, this is a very welcome addition. I wish the key bindings were platform-specific though. My muscle memory of Cmd + , for macOS settings/preferences is hard to shake here.

It's called the Dutch disease for a reason. When Holland discovered large natural gas deposits the entire rest of their economy became less competitive. High wages from natural resources (and oil is the worst for this because it is so valuable) raise wages in the rest of the economy. This makes your exports less competitive. It also shifts employment into the natural resources sector (due to high wages), when many of those people would maybe be better allocated elsewhere.

They only country that has been able to do what you're talking about successfully is Norway and maybe the US and Canada, which have much better institutions than anywhere in Africa and the Middle East.
