For those who never experienced state run healthcare it sounds like an amazing idea.

It is free! It is for all! Amazing.

I usually ask my friends from the US how much do they like the service at DMV. Usually they hate it.

So you want your healthcare to be run as DMV?

Healthcare is great when you have a choice. The private healthcare industry is booming in Easter Europe now because there are people who can afford it. The state run hospitals are the last thing that are a monopoly, so it remains very badly managed, inefficient and extremely dangerous. I have lost many relatives in such institutions, because of infections due to lack of cleaning or hospital staff ignoring basic things.

I think based on statistics the best option is private healthcare with state sponsored minimum insurance, something similar to the Dutch way.
There is a subtle difference between "men did run the world" and "women didn't run the world". The first one skips over all the men that also didn't run the world.
has anyone tried this yet?
Definitely a good list, but I'd add a few more that just aren't around as much anymore. Things like spear-hunting mega fauna, traveling with the great herds and just enjoying the endless bounty of nature. The world was once much wilder and more abundant with major species. Lions in Europe etc. But yeah, we had so much fun chasing those critters around, we drove a lot of them to extinction and now must satisfy ourselves with video games to sublimate some of our hunter-gatherers instincts.
They were previously a Pulitzer finalist for a series of articles on supposed Russian assassinations in western countries that went firmly into conspiracy theory territories. The one I personally spotted was an article about the death of a British scientist which made it sound like the police were covering up by treating it as a suicide - except their entire evidence for it being a Russian assassination was some of his relatives not knowing he was suicidal and Buzzfeed massively overstating his role in the Litvinenko investigation as justification for why Russia wanted him dead. They even eventually admitted he had been suicidally depressed, those close to him were aware of this, and there was no evidence of foul play - and then claimed it could've been caused by secret undetectable Russian mind control chemicals as justification for continuing to treat this as an assassination. I'm not even kidding.

It sounds like this series of articles might've been better than their last attempt, but long form is not the same as actually good investigative reporting and the Pulitzer isn't worth what it once was (if it ever was worth much - there have been some pretty dodgy winners in the past too).
Finnish word "Norsu" means elephant but there are no nor have there been since at least after last ice-age Elephants in those northern latitudes. So whence the word "Norsu", which does not seem to be a word in any other language?

Well it is explained below. Turns out that Finns had another word "Marsu" for walrus, which also have tusks. So therefore they started using a similar word for a (somewhat) similar animal.

Explicit vs impactful.

All told, I'd rather get into an inferior school over discriminatory treatment by police for life, with an outside chance of a genuinely horrific situation occuring that'd cost me my life.

But the discrimination against AA applicants is institutional and intentional in a way that police discrimination against blacks is not. For AAs, the solution is simple: stop discriminating against someone just because they're Asian. The question of how to get more equitable policing is endlessly discussed and debated, because it's subtle and relies on personal psychological biases, not policies intentionally constructed to discriminate.
Hi is that the true you need to do a better job then the one you are doing now
Aren't women-only projects and things inherently discriminatory, since it disallows participation or use based on gender?

I know that whenever I've seen women only projects I did feel a sting in my heart, because what if I wanted to participate?

The only way to be able to participate would be to abandon manhood and transition into womanhood...

Where as there are no 'men-only' projects and things. Not that there should be. We all should have the freedom to whatever we desire (as long as it's not hurting others of course).

Having doors closed to me just because of the factors over which I have no control is very painful and maybe I've been exposed to that more due to having stunted growth and being born with cleft lip. Luckily I can speak without any troubles which is quite uncommon. But because my mustache does grow around where the stitching is, it's still somewhat noticeable and due to the nose also being affected I've also received my share of beating and being called a goblin in schools.

I've been without a goal for most of my life, and have thus tried to take my life multiple times, but after reading about finance I've decided to work and invest as much as I can, so that I can reach a point where I can live from the passive income so that I'll finally have peace (and in a way be able to reduce my interactions with the society to the bare minimum).

((Please don't tell me that my goal isn't achievable because I already get enough of that from my father and pretty much anyone I talk to about finances, and it's really disheartening...))

Interestingly enough, elder people were always the most kind to me, maybe because they judge less by the looks or because many mistook me for a woman. (Or maybe they just don't see as well and thought that I was a kid)
Maybe closer to calling a 16-wheeler a glorified minivan. I think there's something meaningful in that comparison.
If it was just a replacement for statically linked binaries, I’d be less concerned. In reality people stuff EVERYTHING in into containers, database, queue, a webserver and your application, it all goes into one container.
GNU is about making software for the end-user, that's the opposite of what MISRA is about
The comment is mocking part of another culture (eating with one's hands). That's the racism.

Living under fear of being shot over an argument or your children being shot in school shootings or living where paedophiles or sex abuse runs amok in top institutions (Larry Nassar, Sandusky/Sports, Epstein/Hollywood, Clinton/Trump/Politics are just some high profile examples) or being screwed by inflated healthcare costs is also not most people's ideas of a good life, but no one here seems to be mocking American culture.

And hundreds of millions of Indians are perfectly happy with their lives in India, so it can be "most" people's ideas of a good life.
This makes no sense, GPL is a big aid, but not a prerequisite to enabling custom repairs. And vice versa, having access to the source code of an x-ray machine doesn't increase risk of modification. Device can still block FW updates based on signatures.
This ("Medium or large?") happened to me for the first time a few days ago at a Carl's Jr. in northern California.

It's shady. A "dark pattern" for sure.
So the Russian authorities can and will pretty much get anyone in the country and out but the OMON just left the doorstep of this particular guy? Why might that be?
Fraternizing with the rich is the real value add that ivies provide. The education is nice, but it's absolutely not what makes those schools the best. The brightest poor people attend in order to gain access to said rich and powerful young adults.
I didn't say that, My statement was regarding technical nature of user's interest.

I'm genuinely curious about Buzzfeed's rationale to build a factual news site when their brand represented anything but that i.e. 'Going against what their recommendation engine would typically suggest for their users'.
I’m not really familiar with the matter but this year they started requiring immediate reporting from the POS as far as I know. That should tell you how serious they are about receipts in Italy (because there is/was widespread fraud.)
maybe he sucks up all the available luck in the area, a kind of luck vampire, and everyone else dies because out of luck!

I'd write the story but evidently we are already background in it.
That did cross my mind. If it's actually due to that, then Google is just going to become increasingly terrible & always directing you to the most searched thing.

Covid side effects -> covid vaccine side effects

Best burgers -> McDonald's

I think it's just more political correctness gone wild. The vast majority of Spanish speakers in America are from Mexico but it somehow became derogatory to refer to them as "Mexican". How is that any different than calling somebody a Puerto Rican or a Brazilian? It simply denotes their place of origin.
Does a machine exist that can determine whether any arbitrary fisherman from Boston in a computational ocean is "eatable" in polynomial time?
The absence of men in these fields is part of the problem, as you say! However, the absence of men in these fields are by choice. To place the blame on only those that are present in raising everyones children and ignore the fact that most men choose not to be part in this hugely important societal task is (imo) wrong.
I think the whole western world has been fed a pile of anti American garbage for a generation. My wife actually said she wouldn't live there because she was afraid of getting shot. Ridiculous. Meanwhile everyone in the non western world wants to get to the USA. I'm in the UK and I'm now glad we have left the EU. The vaccine debacle has maybe shown us what the eu actually is: a massive bureaucracy where no one takes any responsibility for failings. (I voted to remain, I shouldn't have)
It is easy to argue that a well functioning economy should never produce an Apple.
The term "toxic masculinity" creates a subliminal negative association between "male" and "toxicity".

Although you can rationalize the association away, it still exists and influences listeners. It's marketing against men.

If you really wanted to address issues with hyper-agression, you would use the term "hyper-agression", which is gender-neutral.

If you really wanted to address the consequence of not asking for help or compaining, you would perhaps use the term "stoicism", which is gender-neutral.

If you really wanted to address people overly affected by irrational fears, you would use the term "neuroticism", rather than "toxic femininity"
Ah, ”the EU”, only something like 27 countries with highly different laws and economies..
I've found Vagrant very useful to test (or develop) GUI-based applications, especially on platforms which Docker cannot run as container, such as macOS. I've also collected further thoughts on when to choose which (and how they can be combined) here: https://www.augmentedmind.de/2020/08/02/vagrant-vs-docker/
Sounds like you're ready for academia!
Very cool. Interesting to hear that they actually managed to evolve. Would be curious to see what happens when they can eat each-other. Though I recognize that might be significantly more complicated
>the low work ethic, the 8 weeks of vacation every month (I exaggerate, slightly)

I'd say we better keep our lifestyles and worldviews and be corporate also-runs, than be slaves also-run-by-corporations like the US.
> In reality people stuff EVERYTHING in into containers, database, queue, a webserver and your application, it all goes into one container.

That's simply doing it wrong! If people are doing this, you can't point to containers as the problem.
Until apple and Android made it irrelevant
I have daily "1:1s" with my manager. I think of what has to change for WFH is that people understand that not every video call is a "meeting". Some of those calls are taking the place of the coffee/lunch conversations that were happening before.

If "1:1" here means those awful 360 review meetings then I can see not wanting to do them weekly (we don't explicitly do those at all anymore) but for me it's just keeping the communication channel open explicitly (as opposed to by happenstance).
My, what a strikingly unabashedly arrogant collection of words. I do think that someone OD’ed on their Ayn Rand. In other news, energy vampires often use contemporary moral umbrage to gain personal leverage in environments that the author rather clearly informs us are expressly DESIGNED to amplify “lord of the flies” cum “law of the jungle” values.

Why this would require more capitalism and not simply calling spades spades is for the shareholders to know and you to find out. Surely this will not inspire backlashes, and surely such forward thinking corps will not be pilloried for cartoonishly reductionist world views.
Pro Tip: the climate emergency has inspired a woke vector in the boardroom. Can’t claim to be pure business running up against that one, can you? Will have to admit to being a monarchist human pyramid person. Crikey
Misleading headline, he wasn't swallowed. Still an amazing story.

It does generally mean they are interested in dumb things though. The demographics of people who read those are quite a bit different than those who read long form content.
laws requiring a third party to sign off on things you can do to your own property sounds like a violation of freedoms
Not a biologist but I understand that isolation is an important factor of diversity and by default, this simulation wouldn't have that. So it makes sense to evolve in different areas and put them back into the same area.
Hard to know where to start!

Looking at the Netherlands, where I'm from: There are many fast-growing tech companies. Both big and small. Bigger examples are Adyen and Elastic. GitLab started out here.

This is a pretty nice overview, which still misses a lot: https://www.notion.so/Dutch-SaaS-Landscape-89504403a57e43f58...

There are many many tech companies with 10s of millions of revenue that aren't even on this list.

On the other side of the spectrum we have a huge high-tech industry around Eindhoven. ASML is market leader by far in machines to produce chips. The M1 is made possible by them for a large part. NXP is a huge chip company.

I could go on. There is a very diverse landscape here. I'm sure if you look closely you will find a lot in other European countries too.
Beware of the survivorship bias. North American companies operating in the EU are those that are the most successful even in US. You would have a better everything working there compared to elsewhere disregarding of the locality.

The advantage is really in working for a rich company.
Very helpful information! Thank you so much!
I am hesitant to believe those details of the case. First, because so much malfeasance went on with multiple investigators on the case. Second, because it was awfully close to entrapment, and lastly, because none of those details were brought up in the case that put him away for multiple life sentences. I am skeptical they would leave those details out if they were unimpeachable.
> Also like many of my friends, I get about 90-100% of my news from Reddit.

Doesn’t letting a democratic process decide what news you see worry you? That leads to severe echo chamber problems.
The configuration will be server-side only. It would be madness to generate the lootbox result client-side.

In that we have better internet for cheaper prices than the US, for example.

Between national and state debts, Trump and the Dems electing a zombie, rampant crime, police brutality 10x that of the EU, no work-life balance, average citizens that are the laughing stock of the West education wise, huge inequality, depression and the opioeid epidemic, crumbling infrastructure, the largest incarceration rate per capita in the world, the western capital of nutty religious people and gun-lovers, how does your innovation work for you?
My Dutch bank often sends me mails about their internet banking being available for a few hours during the night for maintenance.

Availability is great but realistically, who’s going to use their bank in the middle of the night? It probably isn’t worth the effort and the risks to avoid the downtime.
Disagree, because my understanding your OS visible positions have zero relevance to what will actually be translated to PHYs.

If you feed your NVMe a stream of 1GB writes spread out at completely randomised OS visible places (LBAs), the FTL may very well write it sequentially and you get the solid sustained write performance.

Conversely, you may try to write 1GB of sequential LBAs, and your FTL may very well spread it out all across the physical blocks simply because that's what’s available.

What I'm saying is that sequential reads and writ workloads are good, but whether the OS considers them sequential or not in terms of LBAs is irrelevant. The controller ignores LBAs and abstracts everything away.

My understanding could be wrong, so please correct me if I am.
I assume one could have put a serializing instruction inside the "dangerous" path, which should then lead to the speculative execution path being rolled back before reaching the dangerous instruction. Obviously it'd also be expensive...
It's somewhat more difficult for founding a limited liability company there, where the capital requirements are much higher than in most other countries (Eur 35K).
Why wouldn't you? The number of EU professionals I've worked with here in the uk over the years is surprising to me, they all left their home countries because their prospects where limited by their governments with over zealous interference in business. Living in a business friendly country has obvious benefits: jobs and money
>> Start with men suffering ~90% of workplace fatalities?

Well, given that we’re talking about labour…

And how many men die in childbirth? Men have a choice to take dangerous jobs. Women don’t have a choice to have medical complications during labour.
To add insult to injury, we're also destroying the trees in the cities and along roads, and people are quite happy with that. I've literally had conversations that went like "Why do we need all these for? You have a drink or two, crash into a tree and die. They should cut all of them".

For some context, Romania has about the highest road fatalities per capita in the EU.
I think the unique thing about Canada is that students “fall into” prestigious institutions by virtue of being good students who grew up in the area. Basically every student in Toronto with a 90% average in high school can go to UofT. This is very achievable for anyone from a stable middle class family whose parents care about education.
Amjad would have been a pretty amazing reference before this incident (and I’m 80% sure it’s blown over at this point…)
Pimiga 2.0 beta work in progress overview
You'll end up with fewer businesses, but the ones that won't get started are the ones people aren't really willing to put effort in to starting. You'll only really lose the easy "fill in a form and off you go" businesses. I don't imagine that's much of a loss. If someone has an idea, and a real drive to start, then they can start pretty much anywhere, even if it isn't super simple to register a company. So, really, making it easy to start a business just filters out the people who aren't especially passionate. The rest will battle through (and complain about the red tape while they do.)

And let's face it - the sort of businesses that HN readers want to start up are rarely that simple. Most people here are dealing with equity, vesting, cliffs, angel investors, VC money, cross-state and international taxation etc. We're not put off by something being a bit harder. Why should other people be?

So, while you're right that there might be fewer businesses, the EU doesn't actually stop people starting if they really want to.

It's also worth pointing out that if someone is falling at the hurdle of just registering and starting a company then the chance of success is very low. There are going to be much harder challenges ahead even where company formation is complicated.

It's also worth noting that some parts of the EU make it a lot easier to start even than the US. Estonia's e-residency programme makes it incredibly easy to register for limited citizenship and start a digital business based there.

That's a personal and existental question. What are your principles? What would you like people to say about you at your funeral?
Also wages in tech in the EU are laughably bad compared to USA. I'm in the UK, same problem. Yet everyone seems to think that a couple weeks more holiday makes up for it.

That seems pretty strong, but Wiktionary analyzes these two kinds of -anie as different suffixes

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/-anie#Polish

without stating whether they're etymologically related. It would also be good to know whether both exist in other Slavic languages.

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/-anin#Polish

has another example in Serbo-Croatian, which in turn has a different suffix corresponding to Polish -anie:

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/-anje#Serbo-Croatian

I don't know any of these languages, so I don't have any intuitions about this.

How can you pretend that this is not massively political? And no, I’m not a noisemaker at work, but this is not a neutral unbiased article. You post an extremely aggressive article loaded with fighting words and then flag the person that expresses displeasure with the article. I think I rather kept my emotions out of it. If you knew how actually angry I feel at the person who flagged me you certainly don’t get that anger in my flagged comment. I actually hated the article and have ill will towards the person who misused community decency to flag my rather restrained critique of a lousy article
For some family photos? Probably. For sensitive material or crypto keys? Absolutely not, due to overprovisoning as mentioned (which can be way higher than 10% for enterprise drives), but also due to controllers potentially lying to you especially when drives have things like pSLC caches, etc.
I’m not claiming we are more innovative as a result.

As a result we have much better mobile plans for example. Every time I see a Ting ad I marvel at how expensive their plans are, and then they compare that to the likes of Verizon…

DRY and KISS talks about different things.

DRY is about knowledge management. The intention is to not avoid duplication of code which is a knowledge representation of the same thing. It does not mean every coincidentally similar looking code must be made into a function, as it would result in a premature abstraction, etcetera etcetera. It's why "minimum three duplication" principle is effective, because it filters which duplication represents the same knowledge and which does not.

KISS is (ironically) a more complex topic. C2 wiki talks about this in an interesting way.
