Nation-state is often used in a different sense to distinguish the participants in the Westphalian system of sovereignty from other entities that might be labelled nations and/or states; this use derives in part from the fact that the Westphalian system is itself considered the turning point to nation-states (in the sense the parent describes) as a general norm, and that the participants in that system are generally also nation-states in that primary sense. (While “state” alone is often used for this where context makes it clear that this sense of “state” it s intended, there are lots of other uses of “state”—particularly for subordinate units of certain Westphalian sovereigns—which can create ambiguity, and “Westphalian sovereign” is a lot more cumbersome than “nation-state”.)

The fear people have about going to jail over taxes is not really supported by the statistics. It turns out people who work for the IRS aren't stupid and recognize it's hard to pay taxes from jail. Most people who get nailed that way knew exactly what they were doing.

Thanks for this info.

The way I read/understand this comment is that

1) you took the cue of PEU registering trademarks in Europe to take the initiative and set up shop in Spain with the visibility of a locally-held trademark by a carefully-chosen representational entity (foundation)

and then

2) there has never been an opportunity to have an open-ended conversation about the events in (1).

Without further context (which may completely derail my theory and leave me very disoriented :) ), I get the impression that the other organization(s) were not expecting any of this to take place, and have subsequently reacted to it as though it were a threat.

If there *was* prior communication/discussion/negotiation, then I have no idea why they're responding like this.
It's plain Java (i.e. JVM/JIT), ForkJoinTask based implementation. As in the original implementation, measurement is done around the quickSort() call.

One point is actually that the parallel quick sort algorithm is a bad benchmark for task schedulers (it doesn't scale well for one thing). Another point is, well, that one can spend two years of deep technical work and then be easily beaten by some "legacy" tech in the course of a morning exercise. Maybe those bearded guys were good for something after all :)

Dealer's Choice[0] explains why these laws were originally passed; Ford and GM forced dealerships to accept new cars during the 1920 depression and the Great Depression. The laws persist because car dealerships are well-connected politically and donate heavily to campaigns; it's just a special interest group protecting their business model.

Well, perhaps the original poster was using it accurately.

In my experience, the common HN usage really translates to “country with a big military budget”, which is not at all what the term means.

Neither the US nor Russia are nation states. China and San Marino are both nation states. I’m guessing the poster meant “countries like the US, Russia and China”, and not “countries like China and San Marino.”
Some of my best friends are right-leaning. Tech is full of closet conservatives. For some reason, having right-wing beliefs is not cool even thought half the tech employes I've met are more right-leaning then they'd like to admit.

I still ask myself: has FF browser share actually dropped that much, or has FF's privacy focus caused browser share estimates to mostly miss FF users in their counts? Most of these stats come from the exact kind of skeevy companies that I (and many other FireFox users) are using FireFox to avoid.
> I think it's more likely to be divulged by talk about the president or presidential candidates

Sure, because if somebody says they’re pro-Trump (or really, pro most Republican candidates these days), they’re not saying “I lean towards conservative views”, they’re saying at a minimum “I’m OK supporting Trump because his xenophobia/sexism/etc are lesser concerns to me than his views that I like”.

There are plenty of conservatives in tech. The problem is that the modern Republican Party is no longer guided by conservative principles.
I've done it occasionally in UK restaurants where the service clearly did not meet the level expected for the overall charge.

Sounds like the buried lede here is that the biggest company in the world is having it's products actively being interfered with by a small shed in Israel run by war criminals. Presumably in this world in 2021 we have mechanisms other than finding their digital fingerprints to stop that.
Take a look at <https://www.gl-inet.com/>. These boxes come with a nice, simplified GUI, but will run stock OpenWRT, which you can build yourself if you wish.

I placed one of these boxes behind my ADSL router to do load-balancing. To use it as an Internet router, you'd instead need to couple it with a modem. A colleague whom I trust recommends Draytek kit but (a) I've not tried it, (b) it's not cheap and (c) I'm just a stranger on the Internet, so read around carefully before splashing out.

> You can ask for it to be removed.

I will. And I will make sure I remember to add not only that charge, but extra faf in getting it removed, if I ever need to compare the price of that establishment with another in the future.

Assuming I don't find out about the extra charge ahead of time of course. I once chose between two endurance running events a week apart (i.e. not enough recovery time between to be able to safely do both) on the basis that the one I nearly picked tried to charge a “payment processing fee” at the last checkout stage that wasn't quoted anywhere else. I checked the other event, no hidden fee, they got my business. The only problem with this comes when everyone is doing it, when it becomes a race to the bottom like the budget airlines which I don't generally even consider dealing with these days.

> You just have to deal with the staff judging you,

I doubt the staff will judge me. They are not stupid, they know the business is trying to con me into thinking something is cheaper than it is. They know what it is like to be on the receiving end of a con.

The business (i.e. its management) may judge me. Fair's fair: I'll be judging them too as soon as I notice the attempted hidden charge.

> and a mandatory interrogation from a manager about why.

If it feels anything like an interrogation, said management will feel less comfortable than I. Of course, if they ask politely they'll have the situation explained politely. And in any case the time taken will be added to that “faf” consideration when deciding if I ever do business with the firm again.
> sola scriptura

Right. But, this is the world we live in: people who insist on literal meaning of text, often inferred from an english gloss of a greek gloss, back to documents where (as in this case) the word is not able to be defined, because it's the only instance of the word in the corpus at this time.

If you put the faith "to the test" of reasoned meaning, you're a long way off a sola scriptura reservation.

> Jekyll is in a fine state for an extremely mature project.

That's my impression as well, as an outsider.

A recurring nightmare of mine as a maintainer is that I'll wake up one day and read someone's blog proclaiming the death of one of my projects, when all I've done is stopped adding new features to it. Especially so when it's someone who's made a living for themselves as a downstream user.

And I'm in the same boat as you: I've had a Jekyll-based blog, without incident, for a little bit under a decade now. It's only gotten faster and easier to use over time, which is more than I even asked for.

I agree that Intuit has done some shady things with tax lobbying, but it's naive to credit them for the ridiculous state of the tax code. There are plenty of other cooks with far more sway stirring that pot.
The word "homophobic" is used to discredit any disapproval of homosexuality -- it must be a "phobia" and is not rational, and the issue is not open to discussion. To answer the OP, especially on social issues, you cannot be openly right-wing.
The underlying math (read cryptographic implementation choices) and people backing Zcash are extremely suspect. These days everything gets all lumped under one crypto banner but from a first principles standpoint I find things like bitcoin and monero extremely sound. On the same basis I find, very unpopular opinion, say ETH, is just trash. Zcash is even worse in that it seems largely in intentional scam.
I think it's even simpler than that: Rust was a Mozilla project from inception, and suddenly in 2020 it wasn't because Mozilla made all their Rust engineers redundant.

The Rust Foundation lost its main sponsor, because Mozilla pulled out... that's a spectacular betrayal. Amazon comes in with a better offer to support the language. Why say no?

Klabnik doesn't like it, but the simple and sad truth is that Mozilla abandoned Rust.

edit: this post was pure speculation and I was corrected by Steve Klabnik in a reply :)
We should not use USD then.
You can't even have friends who are "too right wing".
First: we both know how to use search engines, so your assumption that poor rural Americans use the most...etc could also stand to be backed up with research. But fair point, here's some proof for you:

I don't have access to academic papers, but here's the one they're referencing: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41560-020-0579-8 in this article: https://www.vox.com/energy-and-environment/2020/3/20/2118481...

1) The very rich use vastly more energy (much of it in travel, but also in the production of the stuff/properties/vehicles they buy) than the rest of us so that means they rely on the energy infrastructure more. Energy infrastructure uses all the logistics infrastructure (rails, roads, ocean, air, pipelines, etc).

2) Higher energy use means they have a much higher carbon footprint and are more responsible for detriments to poorer people because of climate change. Extremely rich people can afford to escape the effects of climate change and pollution, the poor cannot. So if they're responsible for more, they should be more responsible for cleaning up after themselves. This addresses your hurricane zones and sea level rise areas.

3) They travel more and a lot of public infrastructure goes into that (again: roads, air, FAA, airports...)

4) they buy more luxury goods which, again, get to them on public infrastructure (our ocean ports, roads, rail, planes, etc).

5) You'll notice in that paper mentioned in the vox article that healthcare is also used more by the top 10% than the bottom 10% (45% to 0.5%).

6) They rely more on the communications infrastructure (cell phone networks, the internet)

I could keep going, but I'll just end up repeating the paper.

I think you could argue the very wealthy don't rely much on public safety services because they can afford not to live in areas with higher crime rates and can hire their own private security. Possibly also schools.
>>which is the ability of pharmaceutical companies to advertise directly to the public.

Pharmaceutical companies are not advertising ivermectin directly to the public..

It's off-patent anyway, so there's no profit in it.
Left-leaning also "includes" such views - consider tankies, for example. The more meaningful question is what views are genuinely representative.
> I always wonder what it takes to find this kind of exploit. Are the programmers at NSO group just the best in the world?

Not much different too how software exploitation was done in Win98-ME-xp era was done.

A lot of vulnerabilities are very obvious from disassembly, and often can even be found with automated tools.

Today, it's easy. Back in early 200x, everybody was not only hiding their sources well, but obfuscating binaries in every way possible.

People just forgot the scale of binary only exploitation on its peak.
My bet is that he emails someone on his staff one day and says “I want the new iPhone” and the next day he has one and he can do whatever he needs to on it.

This whole idea of “Zuck can’t log in from a new device” is laughable. That’s like saying Biden doesn’t have the keys to Air Force One. He doesn’t need them.
Where have you owned a BMW? Honda, no, but in areas where there are fewer people rich enough to own a BMWn(maintenance on those things adds up), they'll go the extra mile, with pickup, and loaner cars.

Halo Arc removes the trusted setup and also sets shielded transactions by default.

ECC also has announced that they intend to work on implementing shielded assests which seem compelling: https://electriccoin.co/blog/zsas-ecc-progress-and-next-step...

One glaring issue is that there seems to be lots of tension between the community and the Zcash foundation (wrt power control).
"Popular" was probably the wrong word. "Currently ubiquitous" would probably be better.

> was super cheap, accessible and beneficial (nutritionally, environmentally and financially) for a lot longer than the last 100 years.

Interesting sidenote, I recently heard someone talk about how cattle was an extra good form of livestock because it "converted" an inaccessible form of energy (grass, which humans can't eat) that would otherwise be sitting there useless, into a useable form. With (most) modern farming, this is no longer the case.

Note that I never argued for a meatless diet, or even a beef-less one, and I don't think going to that extreme would be necessary or even the best outcome. And I recognize that doing so would mean many many generations of cultural shift and concerted effort. Just that beef farming in its current form should be considered more of a luxury in terms of cost to the environment than it currently is
OPES Solutions and Fraunhofer present solar module for vehicles
> To expand on this a little bit, non-default privacy means that use of privacy features becomes de facto suspicious activity, thus rendering them useless.

That's not a true statement as far as I understand how Zcash works. Right now there are >742K ZEC in the shielded Sapling pool, so there are quite a few people using it and you can not tell their shielded transactions apart.

https://electriccoin.co/zcash-metrics/

> Another issue with Zcash is that it had a trusted setup, which is not an issue Monero has.

Yes, but they took a number of steps to make sure that the ceremony for creating the trusted setup discarded the keys used and there was no one listening in. (they were geographically distributed and destroyed the hardware)
Oligarchs are well taken care of by the traditional offshore banking industry. They don't need to fall back on crypto like regular folks.
There is some evidence that the Milgram experiments were manipulated and don't actually show what you claim. See the Validity section of the Wikipedia page for criticisms. At least we can't draw any reliable conclusions from an experiment that was never reproduced.

If it is true that an employer would not approve of any of those views (which is not a given), then it would only be because views which limit other’s humanity are not often regarded kindly.

By saying you don’t support BLM, or that you don’t believe trans women are women, you risk suggesting that you don’t see the value in those people’s lives. Certainly in the case of BLM, which began as a movement to protect Black lives from police brutality.

Depends on

a) what your WAN connection is and
b) how open you need it to be (i.e. there are no open hardware wifi cards)

My WAN port is Ethernet (the GPON conversion is done in a box I don't control). This has the advantage that pretty much any OpenWRT router will work.

I currently use a Traverse Ten64 (disclosure: received the unit for free as part of a beta test) which works reasonably well.

You could also look at gl-inet as someone else has mentioned, or the Turris range of routers. I would not be bothering with flashing a commercial router with OpenWRT anymore.
It's important, though, to understand exactly what that "regulatory capture" entails. See https://www.propublica.org/article/inside-turbotax-20-year-f... :

> Internal presentations lay out company tactics for fighting “encroachment,” Intuit’s catchall term for any government initiative to make filing taxes easier — such as creating a free government filing system or pre-filling people’s returns with payroll or other data the IRS already has. “For a decade proposals have sought to create IRS tax software or a ReturnFree Tax System; All were stopped,” reads a confidential 2007 PowerPoint presentation from an Intuit board of directors meeting. The company’s 2014-15 plan included manufacturing “3rd-party grass roots” support. “Buy ads for op-eds/editorials/stories in African American and Latino media,” one internal PowerPoint slide states [ https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/6483061-Intuit-Turbo... ]... Based on publicly available data and statements by Intuit executives, ProPublica estimates that roughly 15 million paying TurboTax customers could have filed for free if they found Free File. That represents more than $1.5 billion in estimated revenue, or more than half the total that TurboTax generates. Those affected include retirees, students, people on disability and minimum-wage workers.

Note as well that Intuit recently acquired Credit Karma for $8.1 billion - a company whose business model relies on granularly predicting what financial products will be most profitable when offered to consumers.

At the end of the day, it's often impossible to avoid using Intuit's B2B solutions like QuickBooks - as others have noted, they're an industry standard. But in the packed market of email service providers, is this the company who will set the most robust ethical boundaries on how to use a treasure trove of highly-actionable PII and purchasing data? Do we want to contribute to feeding our customers' data to such a company? That's a choice that those of us choosing ESP solutions should make with eyes wide open.

I am very thankful that finally somebody is doing something about the economic anarchy this country has suffered for so long. Given that there is so much theoretic and historical precedent that the best way to organize an economy is by looping as much money as possible through the political capital of the country.
