> The website is arguing that they have a legitimate interest in downloading fonts from Google in client browser, but as the court correctly states the website can provide these fonts directly. There is no reason to infringe on the user privacy, so there is no legitimate interest. And therefore use of Google fonts was without a legal basis.

Would the same argument apply to using Strip or Paypal to accept credit card payments? The site could deal directly with a lower level payment processor which would reduce the number of third party entities that see the user's credit card.

Probably depends on country. For reference I am talking about Sweden, where I'd say 90% of the pizza eaten is from smaller independent joints, something in-between fast food and a restaurant.

The menus usually has 50~80 different pizzas listed, so there's usually something for everyone without major changes.
The set of people running a service with a revenue of 500k on a personal device must be minuscule and the people doing it almost certainly know it’s stupid.

"Just as trying to think up startup ideas tends to produce bad ones, working on things that could be dismissed as "toys" often produces good ones.

That is not entirely true. Stock exchanges will reverse some clearly erroneous trades, even when they are not required to by law, because people trade more when they feel protected against mistakes.
It seems to me the philosophical mistake is that banking and financial system regulations came about randomly. As if these are just unintended software bugs. As if there was no reason for the regulations.

So all this complexity to get around regulations but you are going to run into the reasons this regulation came about at some scale.

Decrease federal taxes and spending to only the military and international affairs, cut out subsidies to states and let each state fend for themselves. Get rid of social security on the federal level and each state has their own pension that is transferable between states.

I agree that cryptocurrency has a ton of UX issues to work out in practice, but you don’t need the level of explanation in the top post in order to use it, so the issues mentioned aren’t relevant in practice, and aren’t a good example of “poor cryptocurrency UX for end users”.

What the redditor did was analogous to ignoring the exposed UI elements on a web page and instead opening up the console and calling the JavaScript functions directly. The average user doesn’t try to do that, and so any such failure is not an issue of the website “needing an advanced understanding”; simply following its UI elements is enough.

So it’s unfair to equate the understanding needed for the top explanation with the understanding needed to use a cryptocurrency app.

I consider myself reasonably competent in Rust but the webassembly stuff always trips me up, and so do most cross-language tools. You might've just had an unfortunate experience. I'm not sure if I'd pick Rust for WASM unless you already know it, but I suppose it's a good reason to learn the language.

The problem with Rust is that to write good Rust, you need to accept that you can't use the same approach to solve a problem you could use in other languages. The borrow checker and its implications aren't necessarily difficult, but they're different.

I'd compare the experience to someone who started in Python learning Haskell for the first time: it can take weeks or more before one can truly understand a monad. If you start with basic functional programming you can be quite productive before you need such code structures, but when you open a code base where monads are mixed liberally, your head will be spinning.

Rust may be a lot closer to traditional imperative languages, but the implications of the safety mechanisms in the language are something you can't just skip over. It'll take time and practice to write code that the Rust compiler likes.

If you're getting started, I'd recommend writing some toy programs for the CLI instead. I also recommend using "clippy" to warn you of code smells (it'll suggest improvements when it can!) and to get links to specific problems you might not be aware of. As for the IDE, I recommend the rust-analyser plugin over the native "Rust" plugins found in most IDEs, because the basic ones fail to do proper macro expansion and leave you guessing on how to use libraries.

It's absolutely true that using Google Fonts will cause a user's IP to be shared with Google, and that this is a violation of the GDPR. But having to review content at this level of detail is burdensome for individuals or small organizations putting anything onto the internet.

A voice I have been missing for some time to speak against the war on reason and reality by today's intellectual elites. Although, this articles deals specifically with Sci. American journal. Similarly though, same would apply with modifying just specific details to many other journal (Phys.org, AGU corporation, etc). Despite such voices being so few and so far apart, I applaud for once the courage to speak out against the retarded doctrines of the intellectual bankruptcy of today's (scientific) organization (with really local and few exceptions to the rule).

Looking at the marketing materials, it seems like it's just poorly explained, not a scam attempt. It's actually two batteries. The first is LFP which has poor energy density but wears slowly and so is used for daily trips, providing about 150 miles of capacity. The rest of the range is made up by the second "range extender" battery, which seems to contain their secret-sauce chemistry. The range extender only needs to survive relatively few cycles because most people aren't driving 700 miles very frequently.
Developing is still a good option. I develop then scan my photos. Color is arguably easier to develop than b&w, you need a constant temperature and time but you don’t have to worry about pushing or pulling.

> PC DOS 2000 (the final mainstream MS/PC DOS release).

FSVO "mainstream". IBM released PC DOS 7.1 (with full FAT32 and LBA support) as a free download as part of its Server Guide Scripting Toolkit.

It can readily be combined with the rest of PC DOS 2000 to yield a complete OS, comparable to "MS-DOS 7.1" extracted from Win98SE.

On the contrary, I absolutely want to quickly and easily know if my corporate codebase is depending on github/<random user>.

Golang has a pretty solid standard library and process to extend it. The 'x' packages are all reasonably vetted and close to official libraries: https://pkg.go.dev/golang.org/x You could easily make a decree in a codebase that you won't depend on random github code and only use stuff from trusted sources like standard library, x, etc.
Is there something like this for car tires?
The way I would put this is that both the freedom of speech and the freedom of association are important. Sometimes they seem to be in tension, but they aren't really. Rogan is free to speak. Spotify is free to associate with him, or not. And Young is free to associate with Spotify, or not. And Young is free to speak about the reason he is choosing not to associate with Spotify, and they are free to ignore him. I don't really see any problems here, everyone seems to be speaking and acting for themselves, nobody seems to be forcing anybody to do anything.

If someone passed a law to force Rogan off Spotify, or to force Young to stay on, then I'd have a problem with it, but as it is, this really seems like a nothingburger.
But that's the bank choosing to do that for security reasons, not the operating system developer

Hello Userhacker, Looks interesting. Is there a readable privacy policy? A lot of my clients will want to know where their video/audio is going, how long it stays there, and who else may have access - the usual stuff! Thank you in advance.
Quite. Being allowed to fix the OS yourself, but not share the result, is like being allowed to fix your car yourself, but being forbidden to set up business as a mechanic-for-hire.

I used to be able to fix a Morris Minor; but I wouldn't dream of trying to fix anything but the bodywork on a modern car.

Also: how is using more electricity bad? I live in Iceland where we almost solely produce electricity with hydro and geothermals. I drive a Tesla which reduces our gasoline consumption. There's a lot of built in assumptions that ignore nuance that matters a great deal in the final analysis.
So you don't have the same features.
Making it easy to build contracts that will accept resources and then never do anything with them, destroying the value, is a design mistake.

This is something the developer of the contract should explicitly opt into. As others pointed out, if everything a contract did was via explicit methods, rather than transfers, this type of defect would never have been created.
This thread is going a bit astray but the statement along the lines of:

The reduction of population would probably work but it would take too long, is terrifying to me. *Edit* "WILL" take too long is even scarier.

IMHO People are the best hope we have for innovating and solving the situation we find ourselves in, anyone preaching depopulation as a answer should be intensely scrutinized for what other beliefs they hold regarding final solutions.

I've seen a ton of people saying Young shouldn't have done it (which I agree with), but not a single one saying he shouldn't have been able to do it. There's a big difference.
Well my solution is more or less as follows

1) Eliminate subsidies to agriculture (and fishing) gradually over say a decade. Effect: higher food prices

2) Phase out any tariffs or regulation on import of agriculture/fishing over say a decade. Effect: lower food prices

3) All workers should be on equal playing field. What regulation applies to one should apply to another. Let the free market determine rates within these regulatory constraints. Taking special advantage of undocumented immigrants to avoid labor regulations isn't an acceptable option. Regulations and law should apply equally to everyone, if it is to be applied at all.

Wages will rise until either the free market rate for this kind of labor is matched, or the farm in question becomes unprofitable. In the latter case, the farm is not compatible with efficient use of human resources and should adapt or fail. In the former case, workers benefit in the form of rising wages.

When there are subsidies, Americans pay one way or another. You can pay either in the form of increased government revenues (i.e. taxation/inflation/debt) or you can pay at the grocery store. I'm much more in favor of the latter as we don't need to add yet another middleman eating up resources in this equation. Costs should be born directly by those consuming the resource.

It was cleaved off AT&T as part of Lucent and then merged with Alcatel. Part of the problem there was that it was never clear if Lucent merged with Alcatel or if Alcatel acquired Lucent. The whole company was pretty dysfunctional but nothing too unusual there.

Nokia came along flush with MS money from the sale of their handset business to buy Alcatel Lucent and got Bell Labs for free. Neither company was doing particularly well flogging network gear and together they didn’t do much better.

I have enough rep on SO to see the close comment, but many people probably are not able to see this. Not sure what to do about it, copying it here may be not OK and discussing something that seems hidden is awkward.

Where should one go to learn how all of these systems work? I've been trying to make an honest effort to understand how smart contracts, protocols, decentralized exchanges, etc. work, but after reading about the absolute basics quickly get bogged down in a sea of acronyms and jargon that seemingly lacks any clear explanation. This doesn't even include all of the shills, scams, etc.
I much prefer Rust over C++, but I find that the problems of C++ have little to do with the language itself.

I've been watching the videos by Andreas King on SerenityOS and the code is so clean that at first I wondered what programming language I was even looking at. I see the SerenityOS codebase as proof that if C++ programmers wanted to write modern, elegant, readable code, they definitely could.

In practice, though, most C++ programs are full of legacy code or are written by people who don't necessarily know about or agree with modern ways to program C++. It's easy to write beautiful code if you also wrote the memory manager and standard library in modern C++, but most people don't have that luxury.

By being created with a more modern standard library, Rust has an advantage over C++. There is no legacy code to remain compatible with and there is no real way to write "old-fashioned" Rust because the project hasn't existed for long enough. I've seen plenty of terrible, ugly Rust, most of it in my own personal projects. The strictness of the language and standard toolset helps, but it's far from a guarantee that enterprise Rust will be readable and clear.
I'm not sure if that has ever been a thing in the US but here in Germany you can drop off 35mm film at most drug stores for less than 5€. They even give you a 9×13cm printout.

This has been a thing for a long time, I remember going with my mom to the drugstore after a holiday to develop a bunch of them. I bet they've thought of axing this for cost saving in the past but are now more than happy that they didn't do so with the resurgence of film photography over the past years.

After leaving my comment a few days ago I was reminded of a web-based note taking system I remembered using years ago called Workflowy, so I went back and checked it out. I learned that they now have a desktop app and it provides a very simple, lightweight workflow for jotting down notes. It feels less bulky than Obsidian and more manageable than the Notepad windows. In fact, right now I only have two Notepad instances open instead of my usual 10 or 15, which maybe is saying something...

We'll see if I stick with it for more than a few days.
