Does this registration of transactions only happen only for air-bnb, or does it happen for all transactions?

If its the latter, that would be considered a massively over reaching collection drag-net here.

Besides that, this is a municipal tax, whereas the income information is only present at the national tax authority. Getting those to inter-operate is quite difficult. Especially since our national tax authority is known to be digitally incapable, and currently has some other much bigger issues to contend with.
from a technical writing perspective, it lets you write one set of direction that works for every single user every single time. This is great if a project is supporting via volunteers. And if you know enough about imaging to do it without etcher, you can just do it.
This is the design I also usually use for undo/redo. Actually for small interactive editors I like to go further and make it so that anytime you do anything the program serializes its state and loads it back in. This is sometimes too costly but has unexpected reliability benefits. It makes sure your serialization code is well exercised, it ensures most of your program states are linkable/nameable, and also it's sort of like every time you do anything you're restarting the program. There's much less implicit state that can cause problems. And as a fallback if you do get the program into a bad state you can just hit undo and you're back into a good state.
Great writup and I love the Go vs. Chess metaphor (I am an avid Chess and Go player, including taking lessons from a South Korean Go Master).

I feel a little guilty using so many free Cloudflare products, while paying them only a small amount of money for occasional upgrades.

If I were building a serverless based startup, I would seriously consider them over GCP or AWS.

It's ok because we don't need 10kg of gold per car battery, with 1.5b vehicles on earth that adds up quickly. Gold is still mostly used for jewelry and investment, its rarity and price aren't really a problem for these, quite the contrary
At the rate we're going there will eventually be armed conflict in the western US over water. Large municipalities and maybe even the federal government need to put together a plan to buy out farmers after we have to turn off their taps for good. Ground water will only go so far. At some point we will have to acknowledge that some areas are just never going to be sustainable for agriculture ever again.

What are you talking about? There's probably only a handful of countries that has a stricter "censorship" of foreign media than China.
> I've seen a very slow gradual decrease in the affordability of cloud computing cost.

What do you mean by "cloud computing cost"? Digital Ocean will sell you a VPS for $5/month with 1TB bandwidth included. There are tons of hosting providers that offer something similar.

These prices don't seem higher than they were 10 years ago.

Yes, just keep in mind that the data is wiped if you restart PHP or Nginx. Not the case with Redis.
Nobody cares if you are not Amazon or Big Tech.
That would be the most optimistic estimate I've ever seen - do you have a source for it?

Assuming 73kg/CO2e per kWh of EV pack[1], an 85kWh EV pack, an ICE that gets 40mpg (and thus 40 miles per 11kg CO2), grid production of 0.30kg CO2e / kWh (which is far lower than the US grid output), and 3 miles per kWh for the EV, the breakeven point is at 35,000 miles.

That's a bit unfair to the UK.

Only 1.8% of power in the UK was generated from coal in 2020, down from 40% in 2012. The three remaining plants are all scheduled to close by October 2024:

• Kilroot Power Station is due to be converted to gas in 2023/2024.

• Ratcliffe-on-Soap Power Station is due to close in September 2024, although ¼ of it will close next year.

• West Burton Power Station is to close in September 2022.

Is 'metaverse' the new 'information superhighway'?

I use that term in the Bill Gates context, specifically in his 1994 book "The Road Ahead", which posited how people would use the up-and-coming Internet, with Microsoft firmly at the center of that hub.

That book was of course hastily re-written a year later as Netscape, AOL and other non-MS moats briefly became the first introduction people had to the web.

But in this case, FB owns Oculus plus 3 gigantic communication platforms. They're far better suited to act as gatekeeper than MS were.
It is without vitriol that I can note that Colin Powell had a long and respected career that started with covering up a US military massacre of civilians and ended acting as the mouthpiece for an unjust war in which many more civilians died.

He lent an even-toned dignity to horrible injustices and held an esteemed position in the US power structures that led to many innocent lives being ended prematurely.

I have no first-hand experience but I'm sure he was also a family man, and he always seemed like a warm and personable individual in interviews, and proud of what he helped the US military do to people overseas.

Is this dispassionate and even-handed enough for you?

Previously delete referred to an operator

Today delete is both the operator and this entirely unrelated feature, so that alters the meaning, a matter of semantics.

Natural languages have plenty of such ambiguity, but C++ has a Committee (yes I know about French, no the Académie Française doesn't actually get to decide how French works, that's not how natural languages work) which could have chosen to use a different word and did not.
"In Chess, you win when you take the King, which in effect has infinite point value, and it is relatively uncommon to come to a draw."

Great article, but this guy clearly does not follow competitive chess. The vast majority of games end in a draw.
Chess player. Go. What are you? A child? Real world is not a game. Someone steps to you, drop them, drop them fast and drop them hard enough to bury them. What we lack is clarity, exactly where we are and who we are dealing with. Russian businessmen are known to launch a wave of terror in the face of competition, car bombings that blow up post offices and police stations. The Chinese just poisoned the world with a bioweapon over soybean tariffs.

My advice to Amazon would be next space launch, don't launch one, launch a thousand. Build a monster of a launch pad on the moon. Anyone bothers you, crash asteroids on them and kill their entire country.

The code doesn't compile, so it did in fact stop the author from calling a non-constexpr function from a constexpr function. You can't meaningfully semantically talk about code that doesn't compile.
Maybe try streamhut: https://github.com/miguelmota/streamhut

Of course, both of them are not ready for security-related tasks such as terminal sharing. So treat them like a "console" streaming service there you broadcast your terminal to the world.

Streamhut can be made more secure with some configuration tricks, namely, don't expose it's TCP port to the public, instead, only expose it's HTTP service. Then you can create a back tunnel (with SSH -L for example) to feed data into it's TCP port in a safer manner.

However, I'd imagine a better option is to beg miguelmota the author to add support for websocket in the cli client, that way the feeder connection can be protected by TLS rather than just a raw TCP.
I would prefer to use Debian if it was more stable. It worked fine on my workstation but if I try to use it on my laptop it would not ever resume from suspend making it unusable.

I think Ubuntu has the benefit of the large user base making it more likely that your problem is solved.

My laptop is also a 5 year old thinkpad x1 gen 4 so it should be supported, and Debian is the only linux that gave me this problem.
Eh? '=delete' is a bad example of "footgun" or "arcane knowledge". There are those in C++, sure, but this isn't one of them.

You can happily never know the existence of '=delete' and nothing about your code changes. And if you ever hit a libraries usage of it, like the standard library, you get a pretty clear error message at compile time instead of an actual footgun in C++98 like memory corruption or runtime crashes.

'=delete' is basically the entire reason why std::unique_ptr is safe and std::auto_ptr is a footgun. It reduces the ammo aimed at yourself & the amount of knowledge you need to know (like the knowledge to never put auto_ptr in a vector)
You see a lot of millenials in particular complain about how they're basically screwed, financially. Houses are unaffordable, they have a mountain of debt, etc. Probably the only reason you don't hear this so much from Gen-Z yet is they're either too young or just in shock and denial about their position.

I'm truly sympathetic. I compare how I could live post-university and it's just not achievable now.

Here's the rub: if you support the view that housing is too expensive and people can't find places to live then you should be absolutely against AirBnB. At least, AirBnB of whole units. I'm completely fine with someone renting out rooms in their house or an additional unit on their property.

It is undeniable that AirBnB makes houses more expensive and reduces supply to buyers and renters.

Cities should be first and foremost for the people who live in them. AirBnB facilitates running illegal hotels. I'm also against people using residential property to park their money. We given real estate exemptions from reporting requirements that no other asset class has.

Landlords need to exist otherwise who will provide rental stock. Those landlords should be residents of those cities and not some faceless hedge fund.

I don't care about interface "beauty", but GUIs definitely add a lot of comfort for things like drive operations and Git commits: I hate writing an arcane one-off command line command, and not truly being sure the outcome until it's already running.

That being said, I'd much rather not install a miniature Chrome browser just to provide the UI for a command line tool, so I'm glad to see non-Electron as a selling point.
> not pointlessly backwards-incompatible.

if the only reason for using the C++11 standard were the =delete syntax, by all means, just use boost::noncopyable. But if you are using features from C++11, then there is really no reason for not using the new syntax.

> What Cloudflare is trying to do is remarkable considering what they are up against.

I repeat, Cloudflare is already the world's leading CDN provider, ahead of AWS by a long margin. This is not a David vs Golias story. At most it's a CDN Golias vs a all-in Golias.

It's disingenuous to compare Cloudflare and it's CDN offering to AWS at face value based on gross revenue. AWS offers everything from build pipelines to satellite ground stations, and even provides backup services comprised of a big truck with armed guards.

Cloudflare is impressive and very successful, but it's by no means a small upstart, specially when it serves a market where it eclipse all competitors, including AWS.

... And in the meantime, the same medicine (commercialised there as Indocid) costs €3.78 in France (https://www.vidal.fr/medicaments/gammes/indocid-4902.html) provided you pay the full price.

That essentially means it's literally 10x cheaper to take a two-way ticket to France, have a doctor prescribe it there, buy 3 months worth of treatment and come back to the US.

I wonder how Americans can tolerate this situation.

How to Refactor new/delete into unique ptr
Everything is everywhere, it's just a matter of being economically viable to reach, extract and process.
The experience here is extremely location-dependent.

In some cities, pre-Uber taxi companies have upped their game and got themselves apps that'll give you a price and wait time both of which are actually right, that let you see the taxi on its way to you, tip included in the price, and let you pay by card.

In other cities, taxi operators provide shitty service where their card machine "doesn't work" and they "don't have any change" either.

I don't know much about cryptocurrency, but have been investigating Storj recently for backup storage space because a HashBackup customer asked about it.

Storj created an Ethereum-based token and one of its purposes was so they could cheaply issue micropayments to a distributed network of international storage node operators. The issuing micropayments part appears to work, but getting tokens converted to fiat, ie spendable money, appears to be difficult and expensive according to many posts on their forums.

So the idea of cryptocurrencies enabling micropayments, while good in theory, seems to not be working so great in practice. Most of the responses to this problem are "It will get fixed with Etherium 2.0" or something like that. It's funny how most problems in life are "to be fixed later".

There is no such thing. Useful computations are by necessity complex (in both a human-centric view, as well as from a computability view).

There are bad abstractions, of course. But this is just a hay dream that we can design a system that would be less complex than the essential complexity of the problem at hand - and dealing with all the hardware, networking, etc is just simply hard.
That report is very misleading. Customer count is a useless metric for a CDN. If you looked at total traffic and spend, Cloudflare would be dwarfed.
Yeah, though durable objects are a great idea I do wish they weren't proprietary. I hope they get enough traction to spur the development of a self-hostable FOSS competitor though. (Ideally one that's interoperable with it!)

Even if we accept that programs need to come in directly from the internet, then at least do that via a VPN. The broadcasting software isn’t going to be an attack vector for a drive-by malware attack, so limiting the broadcast system to only preapproved software would still help a great deal.

Companies keep behaving like their critical systems isn’t that important and then they’re suprised when it goes wrong. At the same time they keep paying for useless audits done by accountants who will happily sign off on the security because there’s a firewall and anti-virus software installed.
I guess you and I must disagree. Either you think war crimes are no big deal, because according to your broad reading of "conspiracy against peace" pretty much anyone who participates in any war is a criminal, or else you think there is no justifiable war whatsoever. Personally I think WWII was entirely justified, that the Allies had to win that war, and that fighting to win meant that large numbers of people would die. I also believe that war crimes are a big deal and that it is wrong to conflate "war crimes" with "doing something wrong" or "participating in war I disagreed with" or "being on the wrong side of the war."

Does `systemctl cat` also work for creating/editing units? If I've got to navigate files and directories configure the thing, then I am going to default to reading the configuration the same way. Having to find out these random commands to view simple things about its own internal model is one of the the worst parts of systemd.

I'm no fan of SysV init either, and I appreciate the advancements that systemd does bring to the table. But it is hard to shake the feeling of it having done the system software equivalent of sucking in a bunch of bloated javascript frameworks. Sure they made life easier for the developer, but everyone else has to live with the mess.

For enabling/sequencing, I'd say the preferable way would be to have a top level config file that pulls in the specified units explicitly rather than stitching together units based on their internal contents (akin to persistent structure rather than mutable cells). Juxtaposition is the most syntactically powerful operator and prevents loops intrinsically. Whereas by splaying dependencies in unit files, if you make one errant backreference the system is likely to not boot at all. I'm sure there's another clever command to check for that, but shrug.

Forth is an interesting case. It's really unproductive to build complex systems with. If you try, you will probably be frustrated. Instead it forces you to try really hard to find a cheating short-cut to solve the problem as few moving parts as possible.

Just one simple example. The 'struct' language feature is 1500 LOC in Lisp but only 10 LOC in FORTH (see below.) Are they equivalent? No, the Lisp one has lots of bells and whistles, while the FORTH one is minimalist in the extreme.

If you tried to write the feature-complete Lisp version in FORTH you would probably find it very difficult and unproductive. So you wouldn't do that. And this to me is what FORTH's peculiar brand of efficiency is all about.

If FORTH were a bar the only drink on the menu would be tap water. That bar would be extremely efficient to run.
