If you are based in Europe, you may want to look at https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX:32...

This (not well known about) regulation applies across the EU, and introduces a number of obligations on platform-to-business relationships, that put the onus on platforms to behave more reasonably.

To enforce your rights under this, you might need to take legal action, but a lawyer can probably evaluate your situation and what your prospects look like.

Sections of particular interest would be article 4 (around termination) and article 11 (complaints) - depending on the circumstances here, it's likely that they may have broken both of these.
One thing I don't understand. I hear a lot of stories about a house being sold within a few days (or hours..) for $x over asking price. In these cases, why do sellers not wait for a few weeks, or list the house for a higher asking price?

Some will be sequestered in this way, but how much and under what conditions? Tropical rain forests, for example, are known to have very poor soils despite the massive amount of biomass growing in them. Almost everything is recycled back into the forest very quickly. Clearly, no significant accumulation of sequestered carbon is occurring there. On the other hand, peat bogs occur because dead plant matter falls into a low oxygen environment and doesn't really decay, so there can be a build up of sequestered carbon there, but that is rather specific conditions.

I read through that clarification doc. I don't like their experiment but I have to admit their patch submission process is responsible (after receiving a "looks good" for the bad patch, point out the flaw in the patch, give the correct fix and make sure the bad patch doesn't get into the tree).
Yes, of course, because government agencies have your best interests in mind.
Asking this is inevitable, but in wildly poor taste.
I don't think so because the entire stock market would collapse if the reserve banks stopped printing money.

Smart people look at Bitcoin and Ethereum and think "wow that's inefficient, if the banks raise interest rates, they're going to get wiped out" but they don't realize that most corporations are just as capital inefficient and are in the same position. They are both unprofitable, therefore both worthless... Does it matter that one may be slightly less worthless than the other? The intrinsic market cap (if we had a free market) would be less than 0 in both cases.
Yes, average home size has increased, but that's mainly for NEW homes, not existing homes.

You have to remember, those new homes are only bought up by about 1% of the population. So, to say that 1% can afford much larger homes is not saying much about the other 99%.
That's hardly justification. Plenty also condemned them.

Sorry for coming back to this, I'm sure I will regret it.

We are touching on some of the same ideas, which I think is great.

Part of the "wimpification of America" is in the same vein: "This does not make me successful, so I will not do it, someone else will handle it."

Part of creating strong people is creating robust people. The trouble is when success is the only goal, you will get it at any cost including your ethical framework. (Rereading this: when I say robust, I mean versatile.)

Not caring about it is realizing that there are others who might sacrifice/min max in ways that are detrimental to their well being and that perhaps that is bad for you as an individual. The side effects of overpressure to perform are just as bad, you can see this in the indecision of people who don't make ANY decision because they are afraid to take responsibility for things. This is usually because anything that is not 110% is unacceptable, therefore, do not do anything you cannot 110%.

You can see this in newly formed adults who have never been told no absolutely losing it at their corporate job when things do not go their way. I have managed these people, and let me just say, wow.

You keep doubling down on how "success is crucially important" but, are maybe not seeing how this conflicts with strong people.

In either case, I hope your kids do well. You have a strong belief system which hopefully results in strong people.

Way back when, I used to know a guy who was pretty keen on earning money in illegal ways. He was variously into car theft, drug trafficking, fraud, and whatever other trouble he could find for himself.

He was an incredibly clever bloke, sharp as a tack. Despite getting into multiple police pursuits, plus various other stupid situations that would've ended with a 10+ year sentence, he didn't end up in jail.

If he wanted to, he would've been able to find legitimate work with great pay. But because of some weird self-loathing complex that he had, he just wasn't keen on it.

I have an MIT-licensed project called A, currently at version A1. You have an AGPL-licensed project called B. I take some code from B and incorporate it into version A2 of project A. I want to distribute A2 to A's community.

I don't have to relicense A1 to do this, but I do have to distribute A2, and all subsequent versions of A, under the AGPL, effectively "changing the license" of my project.

I realize this usage is informal - licenses cover code, not projects - but jrv's point upthread was that projects do not want to change their working license, which led me to read jordigh's response as somehow asserting that the AGPL was not viral. It's a non sequitur otherwise.
If you're relatively new to football, you may not remember what we used to call the "cloggers" in the UK, players who were specifically tasked with going around and injuring opposing team members with violent tackles. (Although if you're a Man U fan you may remember someone called Roy Keane...?) The pendulum has probably swung too far in the opposite direction but, for example, Maradona had his ankle broken in a famously bad tackle by Goikoetxea, a player notorious for doing this, and he wasn't banned for many matches: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Wqi3z-3VXo (warning - includes slow-motion footage of the ankle break near the beginning). Given a choice between these things, I'll take the diving, and hope for more retrospective punishments for diving in the future.

This not only erodes trust in the University of Minnesota, but also erodes trust in the Linux kernel.

Imagine how downstream consumers of the kernel could be affected. The kernel is used for some extremely serious applications, in environments where updates are nonexistent. These bad patches could remain permanently in situ for mission-critical applications.

The University of Minnesota should be held liable for any damages or loss of life incurred by their reckless decision making.

It is a personal testament to what most people familiar with the paper know, that it is spiteful pabulum. It is relevant in that if Google ranks search-items according to a criterion of quality, one would expect the Daily Mail to fall lower than other news sites covering the same story.

“Investors” aka speculators are pouring into the market and gobbling up what little supply exists. They are trying to monopolize and destroy the secondary housing market in a similar way to how carvana, vroom, carmax, and others have taken over the used car market and are now demanding insane prices for used cars. Zillow and others are all in on the current feeding frenzy. If it continues unabated the only houses you will be able to buy private party will be low end hovels. Everything else will be owned by the Zillows of the world and command a kings ransom to purchase.
Reminds me of the death of Harry Houdini. He used to boast that his stomach could take a punch to the gut.

So one day backstage, a McGill student asked him if they could punch him. He said yes, but they landed 4 punches quickly before he had time to steel himself. He looked like he was in immense pain...and then died of appendicitis a few days later. He said that he hadn’t expected the student to punch so quickly.

Stupid amateurs.
We’ve already had rumors that closely match what was revealed by the schematics so the impact of this latest release would not be that large.

Most customers are not even aware of possible model changes when they purchase. A reasonably technically adept friend of mine just bought a new iMac the other day. When they told me, they were very happy about and and I had to avoid noticeably wincing. If I had known before the purchase i would have advised them to wait for the upcoming redesigned models with the M-series chips instead of the old stuff. I think that this is how most customers approach purchases. They don’t pay attention to rumors and news about newer products.

> I normally wouldn't call out an individual library to shit on, because I understand that a lot of work has gone into it.

I don't think I've ever called out on a library, or not felt truly thankful that it was there to help me. But Sequelize... man...

When I first got into Node, and got Sequelize, after working for years with .NET, Entity Framework, NHibernate and the likes, it just felt like horrible-everything. I've forced myself to use it in some projects, because node is cheap, and I kept thinking that I'm missing something. Some brilliance behind the questionable... everything. No. I can't even bring myself to think about that design mess. Sorry for the rant, Sequelize makes me feel insecure, and little, in the chaos of the Universe.
This is a very useful tool! Thanks for sharing this :)

Piracy has its awesome use-cases if not abused.

I grew up in Iran where we have access to very little. Had it not been for piratebay, I could not educate myself on so, so many topics. Even Udacity was blocked there cause their videos are hosted on Youtube!

So if someone reads HN and they need to pirate it, I'm pretty sure McWhorter would be okay, he's a chill dude.

I believe the problem lies with people who can buy it but decide to not; in which case it becomes abusive.

So I wouldn't express dismay just at the suggestion of piracy. It's more nuanced imho.

You make some excellent points, but your comment would be much better without the first line. The article isn't "completely ignorant". It may have parts that are wrong, it might be misguided, or the conclusion may be unjustified, but there are many parts that are insightful and accurate. Calling it "completely ignorant" undermines the strength of your rebuttal.
So what's the null hypothesis here? Human maintainers are infallible? Why this even need to be researched?

Ever since watching Jonathan blows talk "Preventing the collapse of civilisation", I've been mulling over things like this. It feels like we have this defacto set of commands you have to run to start a new Node/Typescript project, without much understand of what it does. Then you get complier or lint errors and then spend ages googling around for the answer that tells you to change a specific flag.
This isn't a complete thought but I hope someone knows what I'm getting at.
I'd be interested if there's a more ethical way to do this kind of research, that wouldn't involve actually shipping bugs to users. There certainly is some value in kind of "penetration testing" things to see how well bad actors could get away with this kind of stuff. We basically have to assume that more sophisticated actors are doing this without detection...

Well the problem is cultural. As i said, mafia doesn't exist because of some "boss" scares everyone into obedience, but because whole local culture is permeating it. If the culture is no longer shared by majority of people, mafia turns into just a sort of crime, and then it can be tackled by policing alone, as it was successfully done with Italian mafia in the U.S. (although not without some trial and error).

What's bad about getting to that point by mixing/diluting the population?

Back to ethnic cleansing, i think categorically criticising it is an utter hypocrisy. All stable European states are products of ethnic cleansing done at some point. And while it is ancient history for Western Europe, in case of Central and Eastern Europe e.g. Poland, Germany, Czechia, Slovakia, Austria, Hungary, it was done after 1945, mostly by decisions pushed by U.S. itself. Ethnic cleansing is good for everyone as long as it's done without too much violence. Middle East is just an example of region where formation of ethnic nationalities - process that predates ethnic cleansing - is not yet complete. There is little else fundamentally broken about Middle East - apart from territories being fragmented sometimes down to village level onto fractions of population divided by ethnic, religious and political lines with and hating each other - a process which must eventually result in some of them being butchered and others amalgamating into nations, divided by political borders and united by... something better than just force. In a piece of land where people who have nothing in common have to coexist, there is either a brutal dictatorship coercing them into bearing with each other, or unlimited all-on-all bloodshed (see pre-2011 and post-2011 Syria). Nothing can fix it apart from thorough ethnic cleansing.

Example of reverse is Poland. There is very little which could shake this country, so united in single culture, single ethnicity and single religion. It totally wasn't that way before post-1945 population transfers (ethnic cleansing).
Your grammar is strange...
> This isn’t just suburbs, as has been historically been associated with single family zoning. Major cities like Seattle, Charlotte, and San Jose dedicate 81%, 84% and 94% of their land, respectively, to SFZ.

Live in San Jose: I can't imagine if they increased the density of the housing without also going gangbusters on light rail or some other means to keep the freeways from just getting any more congested than they already are.

Rush hour. Now there's a quaint term.
Hacking on software is one thing. Running experiments on people is something completely different.

In order to do this ethically, all that's needed is respect towards our fellow human beings. This means informing them about the nature of the research, the benefits of the collected data, the risks involved for test subjects as well as asking for their consent and permission to be researched on. Once researchers demonstrate this respect, they're likely to find that a surprising number of people will allow them to perform their research.

We all hate it when big tech tracks our every move and draws all kinds of profitable conclusions based on that data at our expense. We hate it so much we deploy active countermeasures against it. It's fundamentally the same issue.
>They cant figure out how to deal with diving and playing for time

I always find these complaints strange coming from American fans. "Playing for time" is hugely important and mainstream strategy in the NFL. Coaches will be criticized if they don't run the ball enough when they have the lead in the 4th quarter. Meanwhile flopping is hugely common in the NBA. You can just search Youtube for "LeBron flops"[1] for plenty of evidence of the exact same behavior that is always condemned in soccer.

It is super anomalous financial behavior to seek out the highest cost funding though.
Blockchain is very experimental. It could be true that it won’t revolutionize even a single aspect of publishing. However what’s great is there are enthusiasts and entrepreneurs experimenting with many novel, unique solutions.

One underappreciated aspect of blockchain tech is the ecosystem it provides. Creating a useful building block is very hard. In addition to the risk of hacks and bugs, simply developing useful software that is efficient within the constraints of a blockchain stack is difficult and time consuming. However once a building block is battle tested and useful, it dramatically increases the utility of the entire system. See Uniswap and how it enables anyone to create a market, and how its AMMs are used in a huge number of other systems.

It would not surprise me if one of the experimental toys in blockchain related to publishing establishes a niche. It’s very hard to predict how this space will go. I wouldn’t count it out.
Sure, but let's go by # of teams:
The top 58 teams in promotion-relegation system: (EPL+La Liga+Bundesliga- I'll even through in UCL since it's mostly the same core teams driving the attention) 15.5 billion euros
The top 62 teams in limited entry leagues: (NFL+NBA) 21.1 billion euros
(You can even add in Ligue 1 and Serie A and you STILL don't get to just what the NFL and NBA pull in, setting aside MLB and the NHL. MLS, which does not do promotion/relegation, and is clearly the fifth biggest sport in the US, pulls in ~as much as the EFL.)

In terms of money, which is a rough but reasonable proxy for fan interest, limited entry leagues seem to make more money.
I don't blame you. Here's the abstract that goes with that clickbait headline, which is as far as I could get:

> In this memo, we aim to explain how the Bitcoin network functions as a unique energy buyer that could enable society to deploy substantially more solar and wind generation capacity. This deployment, along with energy storage, aims to facilitate the transition to a cleaner and more resilient electricity grid. We believe that the energy asset owners of today can become the essential bitcoin miners of tomorrow.
>I've gotten significant speed gains in certain projects by simply replacing certain hand-optimized assembly in libraries (ie not my code) with the plain C code equivalent.

That's an interesting point, plus there's the portability issue.

My own breadcrumbs of legacy code for this kind of innerloopish stuff has been to write a straightforward 'C' implementation (and time it), an optimized 'C' version (which itself can depend on the processor used), and a handtuned assembly version where really needed.

It allows you to back out of the tricky stuff plus acts as a form of documentation.

Assuming that's meant to represent 10 digits, it's not sufficient. My phone number is one longer than that (11 digits). If you drop the 0 prefix and use +44 instead, that'll be 12 digits (or 13 if you include the + but you could specify that as always present.)

(A minor nit since it only increases the search space 10x or 100x which probably doesn't make a huge impact?)
