It doesn't need to be that way. The procurement process used by governments to buy software is broken beyond repair anyway. Maybe this will bring some innovation into the space.

For private companies in competitive industries I couldn't see this affecting consumers in a negative way. It may affect the bonuses of the overpaid but few would lose sleep over that.
Yeah, the term "golden" is common in the hardware world, which corresponds to expected signal level traces either captured from a physical device with a logic analyzer, or generated with an ideal model.
It probably works on most people but I find that YouTube recommendations are always something I do not want to watch. Now a days they have started putting mainstream media and news content always at the top in the recommendations on the right side of a video and I never ever click on them. I have tried the “Don’t show me this” but it doesn’t seem to work. It’s gotten to the point where I might look into using content blocker to block that HTML element all together.
'You Can't Just Concede.' One Expert Explains Negotiating with Cybercriminals
American banking and tax system is archaic and really inefficient when compared to some places in Europe (especially the nordics).

Here cash heavy businesses are rare and meaning the money is going through the banks. And as the money is moving through the banks it is pretty much impossible to have income that the local tax office would not see. And the banks are by law required to ask for proof of any irregular money moving in/from your account.

For retail/coffee shops/any direct to consumer business you have to pay VAT and thus are required to always print a receipt to the customer. This means you have to input the sales into the register and now it is in the books and thus really hard to not end up paying all the taxes.

Also companies get a part of the VAT back so they really really want to register the sale into their system or they are out of that (VAT is 24% for most stuff at the moment here in Finland)

Basically the only business where just plain not reporting taxes is still happens sometimes is small scale construction (ie you pay some guy to come and rebuild your bathroom etc).
As a user I disagree they should look different. Maybe the designer wants to funnel users down a specific path, but these aren't my preferences. "Skip" is not a rare, exceptional choice here.

Sad, but that's the way of the world...

Honestly, I visited Galápagos in 2019 and wasn't even aware this arch existed. Might be due to the fact that Darwin & Wolf Islands are two of the smallest islands in the archipelago and located ~ 100 km away from the rest. Plus, they are interesting mostly only for divers, while the other islands offer more varied attractions (turtles, penguins, other endemic flora & fauna, volcanoes, snorkeling, ...).
The problem is we have everything recorded digitally, managed with software and hardware of needlessly inflated complexity, mostly running on the least reliable OS ever (Windows), always connected to the Internet.

I would never allow any of my medical data to be digitized, but I have never been asked. I would never use an Internet-connected Windows PC to manage any critical machinery. I don't want my printer to order inks for itself. I would rather avoid modern libraries which add dozens megabytes of complexity to make trivial things look fancy.

Oftentimes the optimal solution is not to add something (like another layer of encryption and automation) but to remove and make things simpler.
Putting this here because Google won't remove it even though it has been reported multiple times.
Apologies for being argumentative, but I would recommend Knossos... if you're into archeology.

Most mediterranean sites, however ancient their origins, are dominated by classical era artifacts and structures. It's rare to walk around a bronze or even iron age age site that retains the feel of an older era, excepting Egypt of course.

I would recommend Petra for similar reasons. It's also much bigger and more impressive. Petra also still has a backwater feel, to contrast with your objection to Knossos.
In general, assuming some (types of) words are more common is reasonable, but the specifics could be tricky. I know it was only an example, but "the", for example, might not exist in the language -- it might not have definite articles, or any articles equivalent to English articles at all.
There's many reasons why you would want the server, and reasons why you may not want it. Data structures and algorithms that as you scale give you an edge in the specialized problem domain you are in is usually one that I've seen. How many services have I've seen deployed that scale the DB to many cores and CPU's just to avoid some startup time? This is a problem I sadly see in a lot of Node stacks, and its easy to look good when you write a simple component to replace all that complexity and costs decrease as a result.

Most of the "serverless" things delegate to a server in the end anyway - whether they be a database, a managed service, etc. Something has to stay alive, be a server and own the state after all - serverless doesn't make the problem go away just passes the buck. For run of the mill small scale websites or websites that fit a particular paradigm lambda works fine. But it doesn't suit all apps, and its hard to make all problems fit it currently. As businesses scale custom solutions can scale better.
Great documentary, I just watched it now (it was aired by SBS a month ago)!
I genuinely believe that one could make an app where users just knowingly and willingly browse ads that are proposed and tailored to them, based on interests they decide to share or choose. Like an ad store.

One would think "but you're talking about Instagram".

No, users would actually be able to choose the ads, and posters would always be required to pay a minimum amount per ad. The users could like or dislike the ads and never gain anything by watching ads, to avoid bot accounts.

Generally the goal would be to have an honest advertising system where users don't feel harassed by ads, since they would consent to not watch them and decide what to watch.

When I think hard I'm still describing Instagram. But it seems advertising will always have a bad reputation of harassing users. This might change, but it still seems like an impossible problem as long as it's immoral to gather user data.
I think we need the equivalent of building codes and inspections.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but one of the things I vividly remember from law school is that the European Union leaves taxation to the member states.
Maybe some companies are used just for one specific kind of transaction to take advantage of some loophole in the law.
YouTube recommendations are awful. I watch one video out of curiosity and am then flooded with similar videos. There is no nuance just a deluge of shit. Even stuff I am interested in is annoying to see day in day out. It pares the world down into a few niches in turn stopping you from discovering new and interesting things outside of what you already know.
Originally Kanban was designed to visually track inventory. It is useful in that context because you could easily spot the items that need refilling.

I've been doing project management for a over a decade now and from my experience, and interviewing people, reading, I realized that people work best in lists. Top to bottom, most important tasks at the top, least important at the bottom. It helps us focus and get more done.

So that's the primary idea behind it.
This is why I'm keen on seeing corporation tax on profits abolished because it's pointless most of the time.
If you want to tax it properly, rather:

- tax sales in the country where things are sold, this is the price of access to that market.

- tax distribution of income and profits to shareholders and staff where they work and live, that's the price of access to the society they live and work in.

- tax distribution of the gains of selling shareholdings where the beneficiaries of these live and work.

- if people spend in a country different from where their earnings are taxed, the sales tax will still get them.

The above is actually how the vast majority of tax is collected anyway, it doesn't really matter if a company paid 0% corporation tax on profits when they generated much more sales and income tax than any tax on their profits will ever be. It just doesn't make great rage inducing headlines and soundbites for politicians.
I think the best political strategy would be restructure corporation tax to simply be a component of the above sales and income taxes

If you are a RoR dev, Elixir will feel like a breeze. As someone who does Haskell in their day job, I miss static, powerful type-systems.

> Massive fines to whom?

companies need to be held accountable for the garbage they create. peddling alpha/beta software to consumers or pushing code to production while they don't have a disclosure policy and rather purchase ransomware insurance than invest in quality-control must be forced with fines too big to ignore (make it 1% of annual global turnover _not_ profits)

secondly we need to decriminalize hackers that take down vulnerable shit. instead create a business model that allows someone like brickerbot/janit0r to take dangerous devices offline if it is known to be unpatched for x-months still. similar what the feds did with patching of the recent MS exchange exploit but more bottom-up.

finally criminalize all cryptocurrency so that they can no longer be converted to FIAT in any legal sort of way. want to use bitcoin? fine your only way to turn it into value is by buying a gift card that only is accepted by a corner shop in Uzbekistan. as another alternative that is also the other extreme, make banks adopt cryptocurrency (https://twitter.com/JoeUchill/status/1393697279941431300) so it turns into a regulated white-market while outlawing the grey areas.

taking these measures further, if you're getting pwned and do not disclose it within 1 week, or info surfaces that you paid ransom without disclosing it then your CEO and CISO bonk! go straight to jail. That would immediately put pressure into solving the boring security shit, like curating and maintaining a good quality SBOM, asset catalogue etc (... come to think of it, if inventory is missing in any org that processes PII, or you get hit by an OWASP top-10 then immediately jail time as well).

it all starts and fails with holding people responsible for what they do and make it impossible to hide behind the name of a company. salaries can be adjusted to actual responsibility people carry in the company, no more blaming the intern.

^^ the reason why any of these measures will never happen is because those who would have to enforce it are themselves corrupt and totally dependent on the broken system in order to get cover and plausible deniability for their own crimes: https://www.newsweek.com/exclusive-inside-militarys-secret-u...
I would’t call it a minority. In reality, Ukrainians that speak Ukrainian as their main language is a minority in Ukraine, but they got in power after just another coup in 2014 and now repressing Russian speaking population.

Just go to google trends and type the same word in Russian and Ukrainian to see what parts of the country really using Ukrainian and what percent of population lives there.
That depends on what the alternative is. If it involves clueless people filling up garbage bags with gasoline and storing them in their kitchens perhaps letting the pipeline continue to run would have been safer.
Not all languages even have articles - Finnish is an example.

So another fun hydrogen story.
The generating plant had just received hydrogen from
tanker truck into a trailer-mounted bank of cylinders. Those fed directly into a running generator unit. Upon completion, the driver was hesitant to sign off and leave.
" Your trailer mounted bank was not pressurized upon
the start of delivery, your generator might contain explosive amounts of oxygen within it, please shut down Unit #2 at once".
Me
Just a moment. [ runs down to the basement where the
alarm panel is located. Checks the meter, 99 percent
Hydrogen [ non explosive ] and the generator fully
pressurized. ]
Me
Hand me your cellphone
Me
" Im sorry, I just checked the meter and the unit
is safely pressurized. No need to even notify the
control room and its safe for your driver to sign
off and leave"
....
the dispatcher assented, driver went on his way,
thousands and thousands of dollars saved all around.

Totally agree on all points.
I don't really understand the point about dreams. Do they sell you dreams? What kind of dreams? I see ads for products and services, most of which do not resonate with me at all. I have my own dreams, and I don't see them having anything to do with marketing.
Quite. To be honest, I hoped the original URL would be more like this one -- https://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/checklist.html -- which is much more of a "metric system standards" page...

I'm a Rails developer and have often wanted to try out Elixir but haven't found a compelling reason (or perhaps, project) to do so yet. Maybe I'll take the plunge and write my next app in it...

You are taking this page too literally - the fonts are telling - it is starup-talk! There is a serious endeavour underneath - but at this stage they prefer to advertise the fun side of their project. I am sure they have well internalized critique like yours - because it is kind of obvious - and when they write "Without spending time or money on lawyers" - they don't mean it in an absolute sense - it is just that maybe in some cases you can generate a legal document by yourself, but in enough cases you'll need 10 times less lawyer help.
I wouldn't say IDF couldn't provide. Classified evidence takes time to compile when being passed to foreign countries. If this was truly a Hamas operations office, it changes the whole picture.
No, sadly mine is the case of "bouncing off rock bottom".

But I believe that our society claims the responsibility of helping its most vulnerable members to their feet? If that's the case I'm pretty sure someone would come up with a better way to do that than "a miracle", if we'd just all put our minds to the question of how to help people regain self-control, rather than leaving them to figure it out all on their own.

The first step would be coming to terms with just how much we all rely on each other's helplessness.
I followed a reference in that article to the article on Letter Case [0] which just blew my mind:

> The terms upper case and lower case […] originated from the common layouts of the shallow drawers called type cases used to hold the movable type for letterpress printing. Traditionally, the capital letters were stored in a separate shallow tray or "case" that was located above the case that held the small letters.

I can’t believe I’d never considered the origin of “case” in uppercase and lowercase might be an actual physical “case”.

EU doesn't touch taxation, as far as I know. That's up to the individual member states.
Even if it's not connected to the internet but runs on a completely and perfectly airgapped network, when your sensitive data fit on a single USB stick, it's extremely hard to protect them, simply because of logistics. In the pre-digital age you could maybe steal individual records, but stealing large mountains of papers would have alerted the security guards. Nowadays you can carry truckloads of data in your pocket.
Maybe look into Onyx Boox? They're another brand that actually runs like a full tablet so I'd assume they'd have a camera, though I'm not sure.

Not really. The main problem is that if you are small, you most likely don’t have expensive accountants who will find every possible way to find legal loop holes to reduce our tax burden plus you don’t have the political connections to lobbying for certain exclusions or deals by the politicians.

This is why small businesses are the ones which get hurt the most by things like raising taxes, minimum wage etc. There’s a reason why Amazon, Walmart etc are all pushing for those things- they know they can find loop holes and can afford to pay a bit more whereas the small business competition can’t and will legally eliminate competition.

Also I am not a financial genius but is the author of the article trying to deceive the readers with this:?

> In 2019, Uber claimed $4.5 billion in global operating losses (excluding the US and China) for tax purposes — in reality, it brought in $5.8 billion in operating revenue, according to CICTAR, an Australia-based research group.

“in reality” usually means contradiction but losses and revenue are not proving contradictions.
Most importantly, a common writing system, common to a huge area. One that mathematicians successfully took inspiration from and repeated the success of universality at an even greater scale.
Do you mostly watch videos from people you already subscribe to?

YouTube behaves the same way for me, and I am wondering if it's just a perception thing. If I watch an MTB video, it's mostly MTB recommendations, but they're all people I am subscribed to so it's not notable. But if I watch a video about metalworking, it probably shows the same kind of spread just for a topic and channels I'm not familiar with, making it feel like it's lost it's way.

I also wonder if they don't weight subscriptions that highly for the recommendations, and because I mostly watch subscriptions, if I watch a new topic it's heavily weighted because there's not much other data.
>People complaining about dark patterns with buttons are missing the point. More than one colored button is bad with all current design.

I think you might be missing the point honestly.

Making all buttons to look like buttons is a design choice I like. I would even venture so far as calling it objectively good design from a usability standpoint. People may disagree.

Opinions about how many colors should be in buttons are in any case highly subjective.

> This probably makes you dependent on your employer.

I did not understand this.

I use Slack at work. I would assume my employer owns all the work related discussions we have and keeps that as useful documentation around many issues? And if someone leaves the company, it is a feature and not a bug that they will not have access to those internal discussions.

What is bad about this?
fiat rules that do not handle things on a case by case basis are particularly prone to perverse incentives.
> What consistently amazed me was that then the graphic designer would take what I did -- even just doing minimal modifications like adjusting spacing/sizing/color -- and make it look 10x better

Ha. I do this for my team, but I still don't consider myself a great designer. All I can really do is correct mistakes, and create something clean looking. The best graphic designers I've worked with all had this ability to pull a whole look and feel from thin air. It's really impressive.
In 2016, we started to use Elixir as our default backend stack (from Ruby on Rails) for new projects and never looked back! We have since shipped a dozen projects using Phoenix, Ecto, Plug and Absinthe.
> When watching the WC games, I've seen it happen that a move wasn't considered as a top move by the engine, but once played the engine realizes it's actually crushing.

You don't need to watch WC game to witness that. Any position sharp enough will have swinging evaluations at the search horizon, and even amateurs can find a twist in their favor if they're lucky enough (to have their 8-moves ahead flash of genius actually work 20 moves ahead by complete chance).

In decent engines the heuristics used to prune the search tree range from exact (e.g. alpha-beta prunning) to conservatively innexact (low chance to actually miss something), and unless you find a systematic winning or drawing pattern (like the examples in OP's article), you can't beat the engine with your "intuition".
