With all due respect, your response doesn't make much sense.

Google fonts is primarily a github repo with specifically licenced fonts. Google paid a lot of the artists and foundries behind these fonts for an open licence.

Therefor there is no need to build a "similar product", when the existing one is alrady free as in free beer, without any hidden data-/ad-funding.

We are are primarily a PRINT-MEDIA shop. Non of GDPR applies to this, non of our customers or customer clients pay for anything with their data, because paper doesn't have an uplink.
Yet the google font project is as much key to our survival as sci-hub is for the scientific community.
Yeah, good luck getting that money back if the other party doesn’t want to play along. Enforcing court judgements isn’t easy in these situations.
Using a CDN service operated by a non-GDPR business such as Cloudflare, Google, Amazon, or Akamai could potentially be confirmed to be a violation of GDPR, yes, if the CDN-hosted resources are used without opt-in. I’m eagerly awaiting the first complaint on these grounds to be reviewed and judged, now that the GDPR treaty with the United States has lapsed. It doesn’t matter where the CDN’s servers are; without the US having signed a treaty into law, each of their businesses are subject to compulsion by various US authorities to dishonor their commitments to the GDPR.

I understand what you're saying but it doesn't exactly address my curiosity of this specific case of HTTP GET requests for font files (no JS, no iframe, and no cookies either in this case).

Your thoughts about a like button widget, or even Google Analytics are perfectly valid. But I am talking about this specific topic under discussion, Google Fonts.
Yeah, but that doesn't mean we should be denying care to anyone.

Why is it so hard to say the healthcare system is broken instead of blaming the seniors.

That dude's throwaway is doing real damage by normalizing the deflection of blame onto the patient.
I was banned from Deliveroo because I guess I should just be happy to absorb the cost for ~20% of orders which arrived wrong instead of calling them out and asking them to do their job properly.
I think Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen is a good example.

Personally I prefer most of the covers this song rather than his gravely voiced original but in any case the power of mixing major and minor 5 note scales tends to invoke something akin to primal joy inside of me.

Health Insurance is a political scam of epic proportions. There is no indemnity involved. It is not real insurance. You don't use insurance to pay a monthly bill, you have it for black swan events. Nor should insulin be 1000/mo, on paper or otherwise.

The whole thing is performance politics to distract from the "insurance" companies running everything from medicine regulations to your kids playgrounds (so they don't hurt themselves and need care).

I use a seed phrase for wallets that I care to backup. I print or write the phrase on paper, then store it in a safe physical place.

This has the added benefit that you can trivially create offsite backups as well: print or write another copy.
> But shouldn't the site owner pay for a CDN and host the resources themselves?

Not sure I understand this. Whether you pay for a CDN or not, you'll still be guilty of sending the user's browser to an external domain without consent (because it happens before the page is fully loaded). The only GDPR-compliant solution seems to be self-hosting everything.
I would never in a million years think of this. Thanks for the link.
In all healthcare systems some form of rationing occurs since there aren’t enough resources to provide the best care to everyone. A system that rations care based on ability to pay or on wether or not your employer is generous is immoral. It is also immoral to profit off of denying someone care. Tough decisions have to be made and financially rewarding a company by denying care is despicable.
This is an open & shut case for a card dispute. I'm surprised there is any country in the world where taking money without delivery the promised goods is legal, but I guess the US legal system doesn't care.
This is cool. I wish it had some kind of a wizard to walk you through so that you could get some personalized (but not too personal) results, and build out a profile for you, to make it more relatable.

For example, ask me my income, my family size, my religious views, etc. Then give me a "profile" of a fictional person in country X to whom I could relate.

This is what stresses me out the most about crypto. The supposed gold standard is a hardware wallet and access is done via 12-word recovery phrase but even that is sketchy. If I'm not wrong all an attack has to do is get recovery phrase and load it into another hardware wallet if they don't have mine, this is functionality is there if the hardware wallet fails. If I've been doxxed and have several mil in crypto, thieves can break into my house steal and crack my safe or hold me at knifepoint and ask me to open it.

I'd want to keep it on in encrypted file but even that is sketchy if I have to have in on multiple clouds.

Wait... so the tokens are really still there, just inaccessible? In what way do the tokens still exist? What makes them inaccessible? Is there really no possibility of restoring the tokens? No possibility of cleverly hacking them out with the assumed myriad of unpublished security flaws?

None of these explanations have ever covered what the hell WETH is, or the reason the person was trying to exchange it. Seems like there's still a lot of implicit assumptions in these explanations.
Websites have built in timers but restaurant is setting it based on how busy they are.

In my area I don't think I ever had anything ordered via phone or even walking to the counter ready in 15mins it is always at least 30 mins to 45mins, because they are busy with other orders. On the page I usually see they are setting it for 1h and then deliver earlier.

In the summer going to a normal restaurant was 1h waiting time for food as they were short staffed and not hiring more people because of pandemic.
Above in the thread there's a quote on Cicero which covers your issue

> "But let us return to Calvus whom we have just mentioned,—an Orator who had received more literary improvements than Curio, and had a more accurate and delicate manner of speaking, which he conducted with great taste and elegance; but, (by being too minute and nice a critic upon himself,) while he was labouring to correct and refine his language, he suffered all the force and spirit of it to evaporate. In short, it was so exquisitely polished, as to charm the eye of every skilful observer; but it was little noticed by the common people in a crowded Forum, which is the proper theatre of Eloquence."

Cicero tells you that you ought not worry for the pedant, and instead appeal to simpler messaging if your aim is to target larger publics, the fact that you are saying something which could be taken as "conflictive" is itself a benefit if you foreshadow the conflict "there are some whom would say not so! To them I say begone!" and so on, etcetcetc
Yes, but in my experience it will teach you more about the layer beneath (the machine) than it will about the layer above (Python.)

The technology we call “C” is not just the language — it’s the whole system of language, preprocessor, compiler, linker, assembler and debugger that comes together to produce and inspect machine code. In terms of computing machinery, there is no more fundamental target than this.

Accordingly, you should learn enough about the C ecosystem to be able to debug a C program. It’s enough to be able to read code in C, but you will want to write some to get a feeling for the culture (passing the address of where you want the result of a function as a function argument is the big one, and it’s accompanying subtasks around memory management and pointers.)

You don’t have to go inside the compiler itself but I would recommend looking at some simple machine code and trying to assemble some yourself. You could do this on arm or x86, or on an emulator like this one for high school students: https://www.peterhigginson.co.uk/AQA/info.html

Once you build a sufficiently complex bit of assembly code you’re going to want to extract out common “functions” and give them names, and develop a convention for how to use memory, which registers do what when you call a function.

That’s what a C compiler actually does.
Right? If only I could attract such controversy on purpose.

The problem with ordering direct by phone is that delivery companies have monopolized the market and make it unprofitable for restaurants to have their own delivery staff, so a lot of them no longer do.
The classic 3-2-1 backup rule applies here too. But in this case, the stakes are much higher :)

Health insurance in the US has an in network out of pocket maximum of $8,700 for individual and $17,400 for families:

https://www.healthcare.gov/glossary/out-of-pocket-maximum-li...

With the recent laws regarding mandatory coverage of emergencies while out of network, it seems to qualify for the definition of “insurance”, as you are protected from expenses above $17.4k per calendar year per family.

The fact that most Americans probably cannot afford this is a separate matter, but it is more insurance than it has ever been in the US.

I’m forty, been eating pizza my whole life, and I think I’ve only seen people order the preset pizza half the time.

When I’m at a decent pizza place, it’s spinach, Stilton, bacon, and red potato. Possibly with broccoli or a vodka base, if I’m in the mood.

At a more generic chain place, it’s pepperoni, feta, and pineapple.

Never seen those on the menu at any pizzeria.
I hope that iterations can get some language level treatment via a mechanism to hook into the ‘range’ operator on custom containers.
I couldn't help but notice how similar those sites are to this Polish one:

https://justjoin.it/?tab=with-salary

are you in any way affiliated with them?
Part of the issue is that insurance companies often “reset” this process. I know a friend with really hyper specific health conditions that requires a fairly expensive, experimental treatment. They need this because they’ve tried everything already. But sometimes the insurance company seems to forget that they already tried everything, and refuses to pay and tries to get them to go through it all over again, a process which destroys their ability to function and leaves them seriously disabled for months at a time.

This also happens if the employer switches insurance.

So no it isn’t as innocent not as simple as saving costs for generics. This makes sense for the first time the patient seeks treatment. This doesn’t make sense if the patient already has a treatment plan that works and the insurance company decides they want to do the whole pony show again, fucking in peoples life for months.

5 Tips for Rust Beginners [video]
Great points - you're absolutely right
Here are my 5 tips for beginners of the Rust programming language:

1. Cargo Tools
2. No Sentinel Values
3. Create Flexible APIs
4. Implement Common Traits
5. Naming Conventions
Use SLIP-39, and a hardware wallet that allows recovery from SLIP-39 shards (eg. a Trezor).

With BIP-39, you are simply going to lose your wallet, eventually. It's almost inevitable. Either because you lose the 12- or 24-word passphrase, OR because someone else finds one of your backups.

I've written a decent Python implementation, here, which is simple enough to review:

It seems like many of these problems were holes in the curriculum more than weaknesses in Python. However, modern python has type annotations, which help a lot with checking the program for correctness.

I would say every one of these concepts can be taught with effective curriculum using modern Python.

Now, I still think one studying computer science would be well served to learn C at some point! But Python is a great replacement for Java in the curriculum.

This feels like a massive break with the most fundamental syntax of the language. The examples might look more readable in isolation, but I feel this would reduce readabilty in practice by making the language more complex to read and for allowing massively mononolithic expressions, like the ternary operator.
Very impressive, Will definitely give this a try!
No, it couldn’t have. I’ve given you a ton of examples of people using it for things other than selling internet access or software: all of those people went out of their way to get access because it let them do things they wanted to do, often buying expensive new computers to do so.

The cryptocurrency world didn’t have anything close to those barriers to adoption but still hasn’t come up with a pitch for doing anything most people want to do. There’s no equivalent of the hobbyists sharing photos and tips, businesses communicating better with their customers, people reading the news from other countries, etc.

This criticism doesn't make sense. You could argue that the expense is a contributing factor to why the US' healthcare is better, and if it had a single category that said "healthcare is 90% better in other country because it costs less" then that would be misleading somehow. But that's not at all what happened. They gave two metrics: comparative life expectancy and comparative healthcare expense. The metric where your country fares better is red, the one where it fares worse is green. You cannot argue that lower cost isn't purely better if you are solely examining that single metric. Splitting it into separate metrics allows you to do so.

Your backlash against the representation says more about your beliefs than it does about the site.

The Amiga 500 shipped with 500 KB of "chip RAM", so named since it is accessible by all the wonderful custom chips.

Many people opted to install a 512-KB expansion in the "trap door" under the machine. That was "slow RAM".
On the other hand, hardware has continued to expand to support the bloat in software. I do agree computer software design could be better, thanks Electron. My most used piece of software is written in Java. I also spend a lot of time in Electron. My terminal is written in D (Tilix). I guess my point is, it could be better, but there is no incentive to make it leaner so no one will try. Nothing is really stopping anyone from running old school Linux software though. I know guys who run FVWM and really minimalist configurations of their Linux systems.
