> I suspect that none of the European countries to the eastern side of the Iron Curtain retained feudal law, or much of the "legacy" law in general.

Rather make that "no country other than the US and UK+Commonwealth countries". These two countries are probably the only ones in the world that haven't suffered any kind of comprehensive revolution in the last 100 years, and it shows.

Not just in the absurd amount of precedence cases or the existence of "case law" in general, but also in issues that directly impact the functioning of democracy (i.e. US voting being on Tuesdays because back 200 years ago Sunday was for church visits, Monday for traveling on horseback to the voting booth and Wednesday back home - made sense back then, nowadays it serves as a very effective tool to disenfranchise poor people from voting) or threaten the foundations of the existence of life (hundreds years old water claims that nowhere near closely reflect the actual cost of the water, leading to farmers and Nestle running unsustainable operations just "because they're allowed" without thinking if what they're doing can permanently destroy aquifers).

Every other country has had all that historical baggage unceremoniously dropped.

Cherry pick is faster and easier for me in the CLI. I’ve read Magit’s documentation on Cherry pick dozens of times and I still have no idea what it’s doing. I think I have successfully done it in magit once, but now I don’t bother and just do it on the command line.

For everything else I absolutely love magit. The ability to stage and commit chunks in a visual fashion is an unbeatable killer feature!

Quite a lot of land in Hanoi is dedicated to agriculture. Even Hong Kong has some farmland, for that matter.

According to one paper, about two decades ago, half of Hanoi province’s land was used for agriculture.¹ I don’t know the relation between the province and the city area. However, at table 4 there are supposedly 0.25 ha of agricultural land per household in the City Districts—more than in certain other areas in Hanoi province! A decline in the proportion of land dedicated to agriculture is likely to have occurred. But urban agriculture does not seem to have been eliminated. According to another (2010) article, the local government considers the growing of ‘modern’ vegetables (instead of less appealing rice—I don’t really understand this æsthetic preference) an important priority in preventing the city from looking outdated.² A reasonable number of farmers are interviewed. This suggests that a good number of urban farmers remained at least then. The most recent article I can find is from 2019, when the Asia Foundation published a post on their blog about a programme to assist local farmers.³

It’s very easy I think to forget that agriculture isn’t entirely squeezed out of highly urbanised Asian cities.I only realised recently that there were farms in Singapore: my relatives never mentioned them, even though they are always very eager to show me other parts of the city—possibly because they don’t know about them.

Returning to the original article, then, crops probably do pose a problem in controlling rat populations.

Magit hits the sweet spot between flexible and easy that makes it an actually useful git editor integration. You still need to know git to use it, though!
> * We can see this with the Brexit referendum. For 2 years the UK had a government and parliament that didn't want to leave the EU responsible for implementing legislation and a treaty to leave it. The result was political paralysis. Fortunately we now have a government aligned with the goal, but that's just pure luck.

That's not entirely accurate. Theresa May called a snap election within a year (explicitly on the basis of building a stronger base to achieve Brexit) that resulted in a lessened majority for the pro-Brexit faction. The paralysis in Brexit was caused by the question of where the customs border would lie in a Brexit world: on the Irish island (jeopardizing the Good Friday Agreement), in the Irish Sea (jeopardizing the UK), or around Great Britain as well (negating most of the point of Brexit), on which point the British government effectively refused to provide an answer until almost the last possible moment.

Instead of reposting, write an email to the mods hn@ycombinator.com . Reading the emails is a manual process, so use it only in very special case. Try to write a very short explanation, one paragraph, not a looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong rant.

It also would be nice to find a well known site that posted the info. I never heard about the 21centurywire before? Are they reputable? Are they crackpots?

Also a source as dry as possible, with a title as dry as possible. Imagine there are 10 hardcore deletionist wikipedia users looking over your shoulder: what title would survive? Something like "Official UK study shows no transmission from asymptomatic covid-19 in open air events"??? The photo in https://news.sky.com/story/covid-19-just-15-people-test-posi... does look like an event inside a building, so my title may be wrong.

Also the recommendation is to use here the original title, so choose the article with the best title. Preferably a dry article that only explain the results and has no conclusions.

If you are interested in running Fuchsia on a laptop or desktop device, you probably want to follow the Workstation product effort:

- https://fuchsia.dev/fuchsia-src/contribute/governance/rfcs/0...

And as mentioned elsewhere, you can already build Fuchsia for an Intel NUC, with keyboard, mouse, ethernet and external screen support: https://fuchsia.dev/fuchsia-src/development/hardware/intel_n...
Yeah, that line was a real head scratcher. I think someone in the marketing department got a bit ahead of their reality.
I'm not sure why it is common wisdom that a very long lifespan is supposed to be horrific. It seems to me like our lifespans inform many issues (e.g. lack of long-term planning on all levels of society, because YOLO, people being constantly afraid to "waste their best years" etc.)

I have smart thermostats, specifically the AVM Fritz! ones. They only require their own router (which, where I live, is a common thing to have) and use DECT to talk to the router (you can find DECT usb sticks that work on Linux, the protocol they talk isn't super complex). They run about 2-10 years on a single battery, depending on use.

And they're fully offline, the router has an API I can control them from (HomeAssistant instantly picked up both thermostats and lets me control them), pretty much everything I want.

AVM's smarthome story is miles ahead of Google/Apple/etc. Same for IKEA's smarthome stuff. If you need offline capable things, use those.
> this product may actually fill the gap where tamper resistance is desired

I think in the future, all enterprise storage solutions will be append-only by default. To protect against cryptolocker malware. But also with isolated functionality for actually deleting data, for example because of GDPR requests or because of malware that tries to fill all writable storage with garbage. So that data can still be deleted, but not from any of the regular servers that are reading and appending data to the system. Instead from separate servers that are isolated and for data storage management only.
> Spotify re-enabled the API because they chose to, not because they had to.

Spotify re-enabled the API because:

• they already had the API, so they couldn't claim it was an undue development burden to re-enable it;

• it was cheaper than setting up another system based on manually emailing large chunks of the database; and

• it was good press.

As already pointed out, this isn't an engineering product. They've released the source, did some sanity checks, and moved on with their busy lives. If you find an error - cool, go ahead and report it.
Though an important part of privacy, I think this data portability is really useless, for both consumers and businesses.

1. There is no format defined in which the data must be given

2. There is no feasible way of defining such format anyway

3. Thanks to 1 and 2, there is no feasible way of importing this data into another service.

AFAIK, a consumer has the right of requesting the export in any chosen format, but it says nowhere in the GDPR that the data controller must supply this for free [0]. As a business you are allowed to charge a fee to cover the cost of exporting the data, as long as this fee is considered 'reasonable'.

[0] Note: IANAL, a befriended paralegal told me this.
The gdpr actually says that data should be automatically transferred from one controller to another where technically feasible.

Why do you assume taxes are a payment for services? In most cases there is no written contract with rights and obligations of each party and there is no implied right or obligation of any sort.
> Think IP addresses: in most cases, they are _not_ PII, especially when it's a dynamic IP from an ISP

In other words: they can be PII, and you can't easily determine which of them aren't - the way they're being assigned is out of your control.

(Even in cases people think IPs aren't PII, they become so when combined with other datasets - dynamic IPs can be quite stable.)

> Wait, is there anything well defined in GDPR?

In terms of singling out particular technologies? No. In terms of defining principles and criteria? Very much yes. If GDPR went the other way, it would be trivial to work around by subtly changing the technologies or data involved.

Building Blocks for a Simplicity Driven Engineering Culture
As long as I still have a quiet, private office and don't spend an hour+ per day in traffic and am not expected to give up evenings for "not mandatory but really you should show up to play politics" office happy hours, I don't care where I work.

Barriers to exit are also barriers to entry.
My point is that it's totally possible to have an Android phone without any proprietary Google software components, thanks to Android being open source.

Same with Fuchsia - its license should allow to make a fully FOSS privacy-respecting variant, and maybe it would be something I could recommend to my friends or family to replace Windows on their desktop for example (if Fuchsia becomes popular enough). At least such option exists, unlike in the case of Windows, so I don't see Fuchsia as a bad thing.
I mean, you'd achieve the same thing if an application closed after you completed the tasks that used it?
Did the therapy reduce the effect of these sounds on you?
Agreed, but maybe I missed your intent. My point is not whether it’s possible, but rather if it makes sense as a generalized statement. Given how much SV wages diverge from the national average, I don’t think the latter claim can be applied.
Seconded. However, you forgot to worry about the inevitable shutdown just when you would start to enjoy or rely on it.

> “It’s sort of a morality tale for the arrogance of modernity, that we put so much faith into science and reason and using industry to solve every problem,” Vann says [...] So what does he think the lesson is instead? “To watch out for programs being created in situations where where the arrogance is so strong and the power differential is so intense that evidence can be ignored.”

These statements feel so ridiculous in this context. So instead of science, reason, and industry what should we use to control rat population? Faith and prayers? Homeopathy and energy crystals? And how exactly were French ignoring evidence? To me it seems they were perceptive of the evidence, tweaking the program as they went and finally terminating it. And how did power differential come into play here at all?

Most dumb thermostats also have next-hour-override functionality, though I will say I had a Nest at a previous house and also thought it was pretty decent. In particular, it was nice being able to turn it way down when going away, but then crank it back up when heading home but still 30 mins away.

Huh? Dead tuples are not queryable in Postgres.
No, not at all. But being a Baron over somebody may have obligations? If they were not rendered (it was all neglected for 60 years) perhaps something could be negotiated based on that. E.g. the baron provides protection - that certainly wasn't happening.

And I do note that there's obligation to the Baron's lord. Doing an appeal there is another route.
I have, on macOS, and somehow, it has much much worse lag than Mitsuharu Yamamoto's Emacs "Mac port," [1] which is still based on Emacs 27.2. The native comp version was so slow that I gave up and switched back to Mitsuharu's port, which is snappy enough for my needs even without the native compilation bits.

From what I gather, mainline Emacs was adversely impacted by changes in Mojave. [2][3] The end result, for me, is that any gains in the native compilation are swamped by the macOS issues. I'm hoping that Mistuharu rebases his work on the native-comp Emacs soon, so that I can get the best of both.

Couldn't they still do this? I think there was a project a ways back to add a lua frontend to CMake. It's been since abandoned, but I don't see why it couldn't be revitalized. I guess the project just doesn't see the value in doing it, or they don't have enough manpower.

That's probably true that its safer to be in a bus than in a car. But I can point out two things that this study did not take into account, that does not provide a complete picture.

1) The people that die running to get the bus. Or people getting run over after exiting.

2) The increased chance of getting transmittable diseases like the Flu, or now COVID.
GH keyboard shortcut: When viewing a file in GitHub, type "y" to update the URL so it explicitly pins to a commit (e.g., turning https://github.com/trailofbits/semgrep-rules/blob/main/hangi... into https://github.com/trailofbits/semgrep-rules/blob/385c42a/go...).

This has become part of my muscle memory when copying links for posterity, but it makes sense not to be the default, because sometimes you want to share an evergreen link (i.e., always pointing to the latest content) rather than an immutable link.

Mexican Ranchos are still recognized in California.

There was a process for them to be “registered” after the US took over. And many were split up as the owners had little cash to pay for upkeep.

But there are properties that derive from ranchos that carry on the rights. I recall on oceanside plot where beach access was not open to the public (contravening CA law) as it wasn’t a requirement in Mexican law.
Congratulations to Jonas and the whole team! Magit is a joy to use and has made me feel supremely comfortable with advanced git work.
I agree being able to change the temperature settings from a phone would be convenient, but they've had "smartish" thermostats capable of relatively complex temperature schedules for at least 20 years.

No need for an internet connection or mega corp data collections.
"Because, I don't want for it to be good, because its Google, but it probably is."

That's what I have going in my mind and it's going to color any of my opinions on it, no matter how how objective I try to be.

So I think It's important to discuss this openly, so we know where we are at.

Looks like there is a growing minority of tech people who distrust Google and I am among them.
My experience is the same. Probably because I'm so used to git on the command-line already magit doesn't seem much benefit.

I just gave it a try:

magit-blame seems hard to read, I guess it's a limitation of emacs, or can it be configured to show the author name on the left of the line like CLI git blame?

I tried to find the equivalent of "git add --patch", but did not find it in the info manual.
Sure, but physPop's concerns still stands - how can one be confident about the results? Is it just eyeballing "this looks right"? If so, how many anomalies are missed due to handwaving, and how many results are inaccurate?

This is where supportability comes into play: a short time after the was people understood the need for such measure, today you would have a revolution for such a tax level. In 20 years it will come back, no worries, people will love it.
I'd still call this a success for rust in the wild, if a huge entrenched company like Google would include it so much for a big OS play, even if it shares that room with more established languages.
If the right exists, tools can be built to exploit it. For example, one could write a tool that ingests Google Takeout data to convert it for other platforms, because the data output exists in a... somewhat... usable form.

Presumably, someone wanting to build a service that encourages people to migrate from Google services could build an import tool to their platform with it.
