They don't have much similarities right now, that's agreed. However, I still think it's interesting because imagine if US States retained their sovereignty and the ability to secede at the US Founding. We might have ended up with something much closer to the EU today.

Ah yes, and I’ll have that feature done in 2 weeks, max! How hard could it be?
The international community will do exactly NOTHING, as always. Hundreds of people have been tortured in Belarus by a crazy dictator, and nobody actually gives a shit. The only thing they can do is to say how “worrying this situation is”. Leaders without the balls. Maniacs like Lukashenko and Putin will do whatever they want while the only reaction is talking.
so, this is it. Yes, I do have tearing, especially visible on very large windows. It's a sort of frame refresh glitch, isn't it?

Honestly, I couldn't care less. But then again, I'm extremely picky about bad kerning, bad font hinting, and bad antialiasing. And I could start caring about this also... So now I hate you for ruining my life even more! Fortunately, I never move windows around so I guess I'm still safe with Xorg.
In addition to fiscal rules mentioned in other comments, an interesting case was the confiscation of face masks in spring 2020, i.e. blocking of free movement of goods inside EU. This was when we were desperately needing to have masks for use in hospitals. Germany took them in transit.

It wasn't only Germany, though; also France stopped shipments of masks to Sweden. And there were other cases in the big key member states.

https://www.svd.se/frankrike-beslagtar-masker-fran-svenskt-f...

Normally such freight would go via hubs in Germany, for instance; to avoid Germany confiscating masks, my country (Finland) hired planes to import masks directly from China, without using the hubs in Germany.
> (I remember plenty of merchants who used not to accept credit cards to avoid the fees, but, whether by bank pressure or just the weight of expectation, there aren't many of those any more.)

It's a difference between small merchants and large merchants. Small merchants still feel free to refuse cards or charge higher prices when you use them. Large merchants aren't free to refuse (too much of a customer loss) or to charge (against the credit company terms).
> they own the hardware

They don't — the users bought it, it's theirs now. It should be illegal to restrict hardware like this.
> The power transformer that crosses the boundary should also have a split bobbin, so the AC line side coil and the output side coil are separated by a barrier, not wound on the same bobbin.

Separate bobbin is not required for robust isolation.

For example, just right now on my bench there is a medical separation transformer. No separate bobbin (hint: it is toroidal).
>Every OS on the planet will verify developer certificates ...

In plain text? I know how this shit works, I digitally signed things before, and for this verification there is no need for internet. So copy pasted a lot of tech stuff there but it is complexly wrong. I could explain it how it works and why intenet is not needed but you could use google and figure it out, then find out what exactly Apple was checking(it was not the developer signiture).

>Understandable for three reasons: 1. It would cause major unwarranted panic that could cause additional attacks. I.e. A phishing scam saying "click here to be protected from the iPhone attack!"

Tim could hire some competent guy to write a clear email to prevent this. Also your point insinuates that you can cause a lot of damage to an iOS device with just an email and a link!! be careful Apple might not like you insinuating iOs is such terrible at security.

>2. The malware in question did not have any known function and didn't actually do anything or send anything to anyone. In other words, despite being prevalent, it was completely harmless.

Cure, malware sending data over the intenet behind the users back is harmless.

The conclusion is that Apple care more about PR,
if Facebook would have sent one single bit of the users data Apple is putting a big article in the newspaper, if some malware is sending the exact same bit of data Apple changes it's mind last minute and keeps it hidden from the user.

>Android quickly copied Apple a

Ah, OK so Apple and Google shit stinks as bad, nothing new... Apple and Google are in the same boat, just one has some better PR and a big army of fanboys. Luckily the users found out and a judge forced this assholes companies to confess, otherwise next time the storage would say 500Gb but in reality would be half.
There was a period in American history, the Articles of Confederation, which is more similar to how the EU works today.

> The Articles of Confederation created a loose union of states. The confederation's central government consisted of a unicameral Congress with legislative and executive function, and was composed of delegates from each state in the union. Congress received only those powers which the states had previously recognized as belonging to king and parliament.[15] Each state had one vote in Congress, regardless of its size or population, and any act of Congress required the votes of nine of the 13 states to pass;[16] any decision to amend the Articles required the unanimous consent of the states. Each state's legislature appointed multiple members to its delegation, allowing delegates to return to their homes without leaving their state unrepresented.[17] Under the Articles, states were forbidden from negotiating with other nations or maintaining a military without Congress's consent, but almost all other powers were reserved for the states.[18] Congress lacked the power to raise revenue, and was incapable of enforcing its own legislation and instructions. As such, Congress was heavily reliant on the compliance and support of the states.[19]

Of course, the EU functions better since it has its funding sorted out, whereas the executive under the Confederation more or less begged for money every year and did not usually get its requested allocation.

They forced the plane to land by locking all airspace around it. And yes, they would also have started fighter jets if the plane would enter the forbidden airspace.
Have you read the article? It’s discussing wealth. Learning a trade is literally not what it’s about. It’s taking about how you should try to find ways for wealth generation to be a passive enterprise, but with an extremely toxic perspective.

If all your friends use WhatsApp/Messenger sure that works. However if you have friends in China you need WeChat, in some places Line is the main platform. Some people tend to use Google Hangouts or FaceTime only . A lot of friends do not want use any FB products and will use Signal/Telegram etc

Even if SMS is expensive, email is still quite free. It works almost like SMS/messaging on phone, you get push notifications on your phone and you respond.

I move around about countries every few months, keeping a VOIP/Skype phone number as the number anyone can reach you at works for me, while my local number is more for getting an internet connection and occasionally for signups to local apps (like rideshares, food delivery etc) that reject some VoIP numbers .
You've probably missed it, it's at the top, just under the image. There are 2 links: "Home" and "Back to freesound.org". You need the second one.
It's not only about "whats is currently designed". If you choose lockstep, then after you get the player's input, you have to wait at least a couple of roundtrips before she's going to get a reaction, which is easily in 100-200ms. For RTS it's OK, but I don't think you could make a convincing action game with this limitation.

Because these privacy violations are happening despite their locked down App Store.

> The way it reflects well, is to notice that this is a small hole in their privacy measures which can easily be fixed

Sure, it reflects well on Apple as a whole, but not on the app store. This issue is just as easy to fix for sideloaded apps because it's related to OS level permissions which sideloaded apps would still be subject to.
It's actually very protected, no?
Sometimes; I find it can depend on the project in mind. I think if a decent number of people try to scope for a certain timeline, you can get interesting discussions on what's achievable within the timeframe.

Maybe a bit like schoolwork, what you get out of it is what you're able to put into it.

With the amount of publicity Rossmann gets how is he not a multi-millionaire already? It's interesting that he is literally still fixing Macbooks, one Macbook at a time.
A slight tangent, but it's amazing what the human mind can do in the background. We've all had this experience driving - an amazingly complex task - where you get to your destination you forget how you got there. Well, the best freestyle rapper in the world right now is similar and on YouTube: Harry Mack. Before going on with your day, I promise it's worth your time to check him out: https://youtu.be/U6dbmuCfdyk?t=753. He's amazing. In other videos, he breaks down how he does what he does, and so much of his rap is automatic. This is the only way. He's thinking 2 or 3 bars ahead at all times while speaking what's been decided. He's trying to remember key words and string together stories and structure, while at the same time letting his background processes create the rhythm and specifics. What talent.
I don't understand the parent response: I'm sure you know that money, time, and talent are all constrained, and everyone, from a child with an allowance to the CEO of Google to the President of the U.S. has to choose priorities. All of economics is about allocating those resources. Even within NASA, they have to choose some project and reject many more.
I'm kinda surprised there would be still significant margin in improving efficiency, considering that modern top tier PSUs are already 90-95% efficient
That sounds interesting. We're currently using GitHub for hosting our repos (with a ton of integrations, so probably can't switch anytime soon). Is it possible to use GitLab CI with the repos being hosted on GitHub?
It's a form of attempting to disconfirm your beliefs. If it's easy to put together an argument against yourself that you can't rebut, then it's a sign you need to think more. And you can't do that well unless you're in the habit of testing the weaknesses of every appealing new belief.

Ironically, something called "Liberum veto" is what caused Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth to collapse.

The fact that one state can reject anything, is going to be the end of the EU if they don't fix it.
You know, you'd think that would work, wouldn't you?

But dielectric soakage runs in reverse, too. So even if you short out the capacitor once, it can recover some voltage after days to months left open again. (The energy comes from the molecules in the dielectric relaxing, very slowly.)

This isn't a problem if the designer has put in a bleeder resistor across the capacitor. But some designers are cheap, and don't want to pay the extra few cents to make their products non-lethal to technicians. Some are just stupid (yes, dumbfuck "senior engineer" coworker, I am thinking of you here, you colossal waste of oxygen).

What you want to do is short it out, with a screwdriver or otherwise, then keep it shorted with a gator cable or even resistor. Then you'll be safe even if you set the project aside for a week. Or three months.
The United States has the implicit threat of the mightiest army in the world behind its soft spoken requests. The US doesn’t have to peacock with fighter jets because the NATO bases scattered all over Europe do the talking.

In the end both the US and Belarus grounded a plane for political reasons, and that’s what makes the situation the same in many people’s eyes. It’s just that one of those countries doesn’t have the clout to make its means look harmless and benign so had to resort to a fighter jet escort.
That explains why all of their examples are things like temperature sensors, humidity sensors, or antennas. I guess you stick wires on the paper using some sort of conductive glue?

It seems there is a positive correlation with intelligence and gullibility. I mean, you're so smart that you can program and count monies, this is because you are likely a modern day god which no one has figured out yet, and no mortal can fool your godly brain powers.

Also, people everywhere on television seem to agree with your views, confirms your godlike logical thinking powers. All hail moneys!
If you think that the EU (which is primarly Germany and France) are giving out free monies to Eastern Europe just like that, then you have fallen victim to Berlins propaganda.

In reality, what Germany and France buy with that „bribe“ is being able to freely export their goods (cars and retail items via international supermarket chains in particular) to Eastern European markets, while making sure the profits go back to the motherland (and are taxed there by the German/French government, leaving nothing in Eastern Europe).

You get your tax monies more than back.
Sounds like this is how he keeps his interest in coding alive and his ability to enjoy it in spite of getting paid to do it. If you only do what you get paid to do as a coder, you may grow to hate it and this can be career-ending. You could suffer burnout or just decide to quit or get fired and no one wants you anymore.

Aspiring dictators don’t run on abolishing democracy. It is not helpful to frame it like the people chose to ruin democracy.

Show HN: Skippy – Automatically skip intros, ads, recaps and more
Hi hackers, how are you? Perhaps kinda tired of having to manually click the "Skip intro" button everytime you watch an episode on Netflix, the "Skip ad" button in every YouTube video, the "Skip preview" button for Prime Video, and all that other "skip this stuff" buttons?

I've developed Skippy, an app that does it for you for every app that you might use!

Skippy scans your screen and using OCR detects all those texts for typical skips buttons. Then automatically taps them for you using and Android accesibility service.

It has native support for English and Spanish, but it is also easily configurable for your own language.

Let me know if you have a chance to try it out or if you have any feedback at all!
>the northern states that were against slavery were also against counting slaves as constitutional persons at all: they wanted 0/5s

You're saying that 0/5ths was more racist than 3/5ths? That makes no sense, because the benefit of being counted was being given to the slave owners. I don't see any ambiguity or subjectivity here.
You could also just not scale the blockchain, and instead use layer 2 solutions, which is the bitcoin approach.

What are you thinking of? Your original comment just illustrates that "deal" has multiple senses. This followup suggests you think there's something special about the "it", which I agree with in the case of "bite it", but not in the case of "deal with it".

MLK wanted unity but because some people did not support such things MLK was considered divisive. He would almost certainly be against pushes like this and that was what I was trying to convey. He believed race was not an important attribute of a person. We now have people who think it is one of the most important thing.

They shouldn't be. Aside the terrible emissions from the 2-stroke engine, they're pretty unsafe. I once had the misfortune to get a ride in W-Berlin in one (early nineties). The windows/interior are so oddly designed, you have a pretty poor view. That might not have been much of an issue in the DDR with the low traffic density then, but it's unfit for the current situation in most European cities or highways.
IMO the right question to ask here is how do we, as a society, make people not be this trustful?

> Kubernetes has great documentation so new starters can get up to speed more quickly even if they don’t have experience with it.

I strongly disagree.
What feels easy for one developer may be super hard for others.

For me, the Kubernetes tutorial [1] and documentation [2] [3] feels borderline incomprehensible. It introduces several abstract concepts at once without telling me what they really mean. It raises more questions than it answers.

For example:

> Kubernetes coordinates a highly available cluster of computers that are connected to work as a single unit.

What does that even mean? Is that “single unit” the entire application? Or rather one component, e. g. the backend? You usually don’t have more than one service per container, right? So what exactly is the cluster here?
Why is there not a single example?

> The Control Plane is responsible for managing the cluster. The Control Plane coordinates all activities in your cluster, such as scheduling applications, maintaining applications' desired state, scaling applications, and rolling out new updates.

We haven’t even established what the cluster is and how it relates to an application but now we’re already talking about several applications? I feel entirely lost.

Ok, let’s look at another introductory page [2].

It says things like:

> The worker node(s) host the Pods that are the components of the application workload.

But it won’t tell me what a Pod is. So I click on the Pods link [3].

It says:

> A Pod (as in a pod of whales or pea pod) is a group of one or more containers, with shared storage and network resources, and a specification for how to run the containers. A Pod's contents are always co-located and co-scheduled, and run in a shared context. A Pod models an application-specific "logical host": it contains one or more application containers which are relatively tightly coupled. In non-cloud contexts, applications executed on the same physical or virtual machine are analogous to cloud applications executed on the same logical host.

I find that explanation outright hostile. Not a single example that a newbie can understand. Instead, a pile-up of more and more abstract concepts. I still have no clue how a Pod, a node, an application, its instances, its components and a cluster relates. I’m giving up here.

This documentation is abysmal. How can the blog author possibly call this thing well-documented?

You are comparing apples and oranges here. Bridge building should be compared to aerospace software engineering, not to the average CRUD app.

Apart from that, I think you are giving too much credit to construction engineering outside of the highly regulated sectors. They mess up just as often, and expensively so. But stakeholders in construction are slighly more aware that their requirements are going to be set in stone, pun fully intended.

What really makes a difference is the malleability of software. This is an invitation for feature creep and last-minute changes. Also, the impact of overengineered, unmaintainable software is not quite in-ya-face as for physical assets. Therefore, in software engineerin project managers need to be religious about these matters. And software engineers must get better at communicating about these concerns.
