Perhaps this is a specifically French thing. From the rest of the European countries, which typically don't have overseas territories, Europe refers to the continent, and typically not even Eastern Europe at that.

I've heard people try to use Europe in the context of EU, but typically it requires a clarification because someone misinterprets what they say or it's actually incorrect due to the hold-outs of Switzerland, Norway, UK etc. I heard it more a few years ago than I do now, these days people tend to specifically refer to EU, and Europe more refers to Schengen or the geographical region.

If someone says a European holiday, or it was designed in Europe, or someone is from Europe, the listener doesn't expect Reunion or Serbia, they expect somewhere roughly between Czechia and Spain. Including others under the Europe umbrella would be purposefully deceitful from the speaker's side, or trying to make a political point.

Then again, perhaps this is a central European perspective.
It's a relatively new development that solar and wind are so cost effective, even though nuclear had a decades long head start and enormously more taxpayer subsidies over decades and decades. Maybe it's not a law of the universe, but there is a lot of experience showing it's slow, risky and expensive.
Same. I don’t worship Valve like some people do, but I can confirm that I never felt pushed into buying any of their micro transactions. 2000 hours in Dota 2 and I think $40 spent total. Comparing with coworkers who’ve played similar hours of League of Legends, they were saying numbers ranging from $600-12k. I looked up posts on /r/Hearthstone when I was considering playing the game and they were talking in the range of $500-$3000. Basically $200 to make a decent deck every new season. That’s too rich for my blood.

I have no doubt that some people spend money they can’t afford to even in Dota 2/CS GO, but that feels more of a choice than other games.
And that's why we should ban people living in eg the US from investing in any other country?

And why we are at it, we should also ban people from drawing down their capital and consuming it. The effect is the same as capital flight, after all.

No more drawing down your retirement savings!

In any case, if you are powerful enough to rob a poor country, do you think you would be subject to any laws preventing capital flight?

Steam takes 30% under 10 million in sales, 25% under 50 million, 20% after that, and there's also internal agreements to lower that cut.

That said, negative sentiment about Steam has been a heavy subject in years past. There's a reason Epic came in swinging with super low fees.
I'm amazed at how the openbsd community seems to like calling people idiots.

I've been using various unices for about 20 years now, ranging from Slackware Linux to OpenSolaris to FreeBSD to Kubuntu. I gave openbsd a try a few years back, and found it utterly complicated to setup and use.

And when you ask for help, you're treated like an idiot and the only reply you get is basically "rtfm". No joke, one of the guys said "Grey Unix beards are formed in suffering".

Granted, a lot of stuff is in the documentation. But also a lot of stuff isn't. Your edge case from laptop X isn't documented, and you're still considered an idiot if you can't solve it.

Even the title of this article reflects that mindset.
It's not a flex when you "avoid ads" (which you don't, what are the Netflix/Prime/Disney etc home pages except ads for more tv consumption) by committing to $60 per month of streaming.
In that sentence, What’s the subject of the verb “plummeted”? Is “purchase rates” both acting as an object and a subject? I’m confused and can’t parse your comment.
Shifting the goal posts isn't the win you think it is. We're talking about a specific context.
I wonder about this too. Instead of a rescue mission, which would have been extremely difficult and risky, as the article well shows, could NASA have come up with a repair procedure?

Maybe it was completely impossible, but the topic is not even discussed.
I had no broadcast TV for 25 years until a few years ago. Whenever I encountered TV watchers, I was also amazed that they didn't mute ads, but I still found the interruption extremely irritating.

Now, here in The Netherlands with my KPN TV-over-fiber connection, I can skip around in a show, but I can't skip over ads on many channels. The device sometimes doesn't even let me mute during an ad! I can independently mute or switch video inputs, so it's basically forcing me to either hear or see an ad.

I pay about the same for Netflix. So obnoxious.
>And here in the Netherlands it is with many a sin to have the TV on in the background

Yes. Background noise is the radio's job. Why waste energy keeping a panel on if nobody's gonna look at it?

For now they are mostly selling the dream.
I just embarked a multi month project of building a medium aquaponic system in Egypt (40 cubic meters maybe) which ended up going way over budget due to local labour skills and inflation. Still though, something about trying to have a closed loop farming system is pretty satisfying.

Wouldn’t do it again here though! Was almost as stressful as being a founder with zero of the ROSI
Cannot be justified on scientific grounds? Surely they arent running this like what certain countries did in wars?
Wasn't most of the hard work done by the two actual founders of Tesla?

They achieved something almost equivalent to the modern day Tesla before Elon contributed anything (funding excluded).
Yeah I feel like it differs by generation in Russia as well. My parents' generation and older would often have either TV or radio on in the background most of the time. My generation mostly considers the mere act of watching broadcast television a sin because of how much propaganda there is and how much more useful content, available on demand, is out there on the internet anyway. Those who do own a TV often use it as a big display for streaming/torrented movies and/or console games, with the antenna cable often not even connected.
That paper doesn't appear to have much to do with what we're talking about here. The transfer of heat to the vehicle from the hot shocked gas is another issue entirely.

Anyway, it's foundational supersonic fluid physics that shocks create entropy.

"Shocks are irreversible occurrences in supersonic flows (i.e. the entropy increases)." -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_(fluid_dynamics)

Reentry with blunt bodies works because most of the dissipation is occurring at the shock, at some distance away from the vehicle, allowing most of the heat (that must be produced from the kinetic energy of the vehicle as it slows) to be carried away.

I do exactly this, and I’m very happy with it. I tried switching to another tool like Jless when it got posted on HN last year, but it wasn’t enough of a game-changer compared to jq itself.

I don’t get to interactively change the query, but hitting ‘q’ and running another jq query is in some sense more powerful, because it does not just allow me to “focus the lens” but also completely alter it.

Building a jq query by progressively testing and viewing is really nice. I love jq!

That seems like an odd comparison. And anyway, cochlear implants were developed with human volunteers in the 60s and 70s. Some modern cochlear implant experiments use animals that have been deliberately deafened, and this most certainly raises ethical concerns.

The words "move on" are particularly odd. What do you mean? Should we never look back at what we've already done, and work out how to do it better? That really doesn't feel like progress or to me.
What works for me is negative visualization. Thinking of the worst possible thing that can happen, and how I'd feel in that situation. It's kind of like exposure therapy.

It's not hard to implement. Just have a one-handed shortcut open up a new file (with the date and time as the file name) in a simple text editor.

The harder part is efficiently sorting through notes so they can be referenced or acted upon.
Cool story! I can only imagine how good the person solving the riddle felt when the penny finally dropped! :)

Two somewhat topical observations in a similar vein:

Back in a sysvinit world, many (Debian) users would run init-scripts directly via `/etc/init.d/someservice someaction`, instead of using `/usr/sbin/service someservice someaction`. This could have very unpleasant side effects at times, because `service` is/was actively trying to clean and sanitize the resulting child processes' environment, while most init scripts themselves usually did not.

The second thing that the article made me think of is not directly related to most "admin wants the system to start a service"-scenarios, but COULD also happen in such a situation: On Linux, when a process tries to fork, the kernel requires certain guarantees in terms of usable memory for the process' copy, due to copy-on-write semantics for allocated pages. If these cannot be matched, forking might fail with ENOMEM. In my experience, this is much more likely to happen when the process trying to fork has a lot of allocated memory accounted for. Therefore, it makes perfect sense to have a "lightweight" kind of fork-and-exec-server around in the system that can be contacted via an IPC mechanism, and made to start daemon processes that are probably not meant to inherit anything from the caller's environment (like file descriptors, niceness, environment variables) in the first place.
Or move to a metropolitan area with a health clinic that caters to LGBT people like Callen-Lorde in NYC or Mazzoni Center in Philadelphia. That way respectful treatment is a sure thing. The gay aristocracy privately donates a lot of money to take care of the health needs of their own. It makes the world healthier and safer for everyone gay and straight.

Rather than spam yet another link to my Javascript library, I'll instead link to the website of a hobby I've invested over 30 years - writing poetry[1].

There's no money in poetry, and yet the world of poetry continues to insist that the only way to move a poem from the poet's mind to the reader's eye is by publishing it - either in a literary magazine, or a pamphlet/collection, or an anthology. An alternative route, through newspapers and magazines, has collapsed in recent years. Sharing poems via social media - in particular Instagram - has shown some promise, but the end goal still seems to be some sort of publishing deal with the traditional suspects. Maybe TikTik poets will be able to break the cycle?

Whatever. I decided long ago that I didn't want to play that game. I enjoy writing poems, and I enjoy sharing poems with friends, family and whoever else might be interested in it. I built the first website to host my 'self-published' works back in the early 2000s; much of my coding learning and skills developed from the work I've done on this, and similar, hobby sites[2].

One nice thing about my approach is that the British Library regularly snapshots the site as part of its mission to capture/archive .uk websites. My words won't die when I die - though I doubt they'll be of interest to future generations.

You seem to be arguing from a personally idealised view of math, which doesn't match reality.

Real math is full of full of mis-starts, dead ends, and established mistakes which are later corrected.

Math is exactly like science. There's a cumulative core we can be very confident about, and more exploratory edges where results are more tentative and subject to review, correction, and expansion.
There are many "Audition alternatives", but it's hard to recommend anything without knowing what you want it for. Audacity might be OK if your needs are very basic. Pro-tools is kind of the industry standard DAW. Reaper is sort-of-free and quite popular. Ardour is FLOSS and good (although with paid binaries). Izotope RX9 is brilliant for cleaning up audio clips. Mixbus is supposed to have a great emulation of classic analogue mixers. Hindenburg is popular with podcasters. Etc.
> No need to force your ad to them.

Oh, there is a need, alright. If they claim they're not interested, it's time to shift strategies[1]. After all, nobody's immune to advertising[2]. I'm sure there are more relevant studies that prove even ad-averse individuals are still susceptible to them. It's just a matter of finding the right _kind_ of advertising to reach them. Doing this effectively is what gets you promoted in adtech.

You're making the mistake of assuming that "something can't happen" if it is inconvenient for the business. The convenience of the business is irrelevant - it must operate within the law.

And yes, GDPR prevents data from leaving the EU zone if there is then a possibility that GDPR could be violated. That's the crux of the recent court cases in Austria and France. You may not collect GDPR protected data if as a consequence of that collection there is a reasonable prospect GDPR will eventually be violated by ANYONE.

For your example case, all initial data processing would have to physically occur within Europe, performed by a subsidiary not subject to US law, and only after they had reduced it to aggregate data that could not be reverse engineered to get GDPR protected data would they be permitted to export it to America.
Why most published research findings are false:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Why_Most_Published_Research_...
The telling part for me is the scale of the graphs from the original paper and the blog post

The paper graph shows a decrease from like .1 to .075 over 30 years

The blog post shows a decrease from .35 to .1 over 100 years

However, the crimson had a notable drop around 2000 - on the order of the entire decrease in the research study - and then looks fairly stable.

It’s almost like there are policy and effective communication reasons for narrowing your vocabulary to that appropriate for a target audience.

If you look at the graph from the underlying study, there’s a bit of a “shoulder” around 1997. That is telling. 1997 was when the NSF introduced a new, clear and explicit, set of review criteria - broader impacts and intellectual merit [0]. That change alone is likely a cause of significant (Meaningful?) linguistic narrowing. To get NSF funding, researchers now had to explain why their research matters using explicit language that aligned with specific strategic objectives of the funding agency.

Then you add a layer of Goodharts law. During this time period, two other things were also happening. First, University’s increasingly began to rely on external funding - especially public university’s. Second, the field of “faculty development” was increasingly formalizing and offering training and support on things like grant writing. Those trainings include a lot of focus on using normalized, almost shibboleth like, language in grant applications. Ensuring that there is religion of key words so that it is easy for the reviewers to establish that a particular grant application addresses the required review criteria.

So the data set used here is part of the problem - if they had used submitted rather than funded they would likely see different results. Not because ideas are narrowing but because grant applications are basically a human manifested api, and someone tried to actually standardize it.

It's remarkable how much the debate around this topic has been poisoned by talking points from the data monitization industry. That the internet would completely cease to exist without the ability of the big ad giants to profile people's interests and sell cohorts of people with those interests to ad buyers or even worse to sell the data itself. The truth is:

1) Business models other than those depending on ad revenue exist. The internet would not disappear even if no advertising was ever shown to anybody. Yes it would be very different from the present internet.

2) Non-targeted advertising exists and is widely purchased. When I walk outside my door I see busses with adverts on the side, billboards on the side of the road and at public transport etc. None of these are targetted except perhaps in the most generalized fashion.

3) Even if we allow targetting, targetted advertising based on content rather than the consumer of that content exists and is successful (eg the ads that show as part of TV programming, ads in print media etc). This suggests that is highly likely that even if we just completely disallow all tracking of individuals and their interests, the internet advertising industry would continue to exist and to fund content by showing ads alongside content that is likely to attract the right audience, rather than being specifically spoonfed that audience by Google/Facebook etc.

It is simply untrue that we have to work with people who want to do this sort of incredibly invasive thing, and in particular there is no reason for anyone ever to trust these particular organisations who not only have a vested interest in destroying people's privacy, have a track record of statements and actions showing that they have always considered doing so to be no big deal.

Maybe Neuralink is doing something unethical. But this kind of rant makes the whole accusation way too easy to dismiss as the work of a crackpot. People that do stumble upon something unethical and feel the need to blow the whistle should probably keep that in mind and focus on the facts if they want to be taken seriously.

"It seems to me Figma is the market leader on this now"

This is my impression too. Adobe XD has always been in 'catch-up' mode to rivals Sketch and Figma.

I was sceptical a complex, feature-rich design tool could be possible in the browser, but Figma proved me wrong. Not only that, Figma has proved to be serious competition to rival Sketch which is a native desktop Mac-only app (with all the speed and functionality advantage of a native app.)

Both Sketch and Adobe XD are also hampered by the fact that sharing designs or collaborating with others is harder compared to Figma. Sketch and Adobe XD were designed with the focus on single-user desktop app use, not the multi-user (cross-platform) collaboration scenario common today.

Both Sketch and XD allow you to share designs by uploading screenshots or files to their 'cloud' or hosting services. But editing is still required in the desktop app - unlike Figma where the browser is the app (although there are Figma Electron desktop apps for offline use).

Adobe XD has a feature called 'co-editing' where multiple users can edit a file at the same time - but each user must have the XD app installed.

Figma is even encroaching on the territory of other online tools like Miro. For example, Figma can be used as a digital whiteboard - ideal for a mixed team of developers, managers, designers and any other stakeholders. This is simply not possible in Sketch or Adobe XD.
