Who's the person who is responsible for saying what's in the best interest of Ukraine? I'd day it's the elected president and government of that country and the people who give them close to 90% support according to recent polls.
Neat, my surname which is Coppard has only 430 occurrences (by this datasets authority) in the UK.

It looks like if you query it directly on the map view here: https://www.surnamemap.eu/unitedkingdom/index.php

Then that shows you the "Places" count from the rankings list here: https://www.surnamemap.eu/unitedkingdom/most_common_surnames...

Should be good for others who don't have a very common surname and didn't find it in the (maximum) 10 pages of results.
Permits are one thing if they are inevitably granted, and another if they actually limit people's ability to do things: "we'll say no even if you meet standards and can pay".
Very inappropriate. You can argue that US supremacy was what kept European countries in peace after WWII. Hardly a cultural evolution
Ukraine will not exist if Putin wins this war.
Your dad sounds awesome.

If your dad loves the work, okay cool. But your effective implication is you cannot have anyone else do this, which is obviously absurd because there are companies much much larger than either of ours that pull it off.

The key point is not "the owner has to do it", it's someone has to be held responsible for this.

For smaller businesses, it's likely the owner. For someone like your dad's, it's usually someone else. Even a solid bookkeeping system would have picked up what OP missed.

> you develop a sixth sense for problems

100% agreed, but for the owner/operator it's usually all things, but for the person who is responsible, it's usually a lot more of the minutiae.

It's literally impossible to be the master of all things.

If you carry one of these, you are a combatant and not a civilian. Which does mean that you have the same status as a regular soldier under the Geneva conventions.

And while soldiers and combatants are legitimate targets in general, this war is not legitimate. It is a war of agression against a sovereign country, so you cannot really claim that killing soldiers is simply legal here. The responsibility for all the death and suffering caused here lies with Putin who commanded this invasion.

But as Russia is bombarding cities with civilians already, and it is likely they will escalate these bombardments even further, you are anyway in very real danger of getting killed as a civilian.

why?

how is this different from cuban missile crisis that was averted but this was not because ukraine was told to not back out.

why do you want "regime change" in russia? what if russians say they want the same for biden or trump or whatever they have there?

i am neither american, nor russian/chinese so i am looking at this objectively from a distance. why does americans "want" everyone to toe their line and push their narratives only?
I suppose this was a huge miscalculation. As far as I can see, the effect will be as follows:
- EU countries are re-arming (Germany in particular). If they go through with that, they will be able to surpass Russia in terms of conventional force strength in a few years, even without US support.
- The EU will remove their dependency on Russian oil&gas, removing Russian leverage and profits at the same time.
- Even if Russia is able to gain military control of the Ukrain, it will take decades of suppression for them to derive any net economic benefit. And by doing this, they will continously remind the world that they are the "bad guys", ensuring continues isolation.
Fwiw, as married to someone awaiting character and fitness confirmation from 2nd department of New York State - you cannot declare or imply that you are a lawyer, attorney or otherwise able to practice law until duly licensed and sworn in. While Websters says a lawyer includes those that study law, putting that in your email footer is a great way to never be barred.

Thus the definitions are in usage synonyms.

I don't understand why would anyone use Stripe Tax? At that price range, suddenly one can also switch to something like Paddle, Gumroad, FastSpring, MyCommerce or some other Merchant of Record.

The merchant of Record will then act as a middleman/reseller between your SaaS and a consumer, and will take full responsibility not only for calculating, but also collecting and filing taxes in any of the jurisdictions.

As a SaaS, all you get from MoR is one payment at a defined schedule. Any errors in tax calculation, reporting, filing are not your problem, it's their problem.

Stripe Tax costs the same as Merchant of Record, but it doesn't do anything they do. Yes, they help you calculate the tax amount, give you the summary, but it's you that still need to file taxes correctly everywhere in the world, and it's still you that is responsible for Stripe Tax mistakes.

Until Stripe can act as a full Merchant of Record, I don't see a reason to use them unless one sells only in one (home) country.
Putin sees NATO as an existential threat, vastly more significant than any economic threat. From this premise, he is operating ruthelessly rationally, not "crazy".

The western narrative of "crazy putin" is in part just a delusional misunderstanding (Germany), an in part a strategy of getting western domestic buy in for beating up Russia (UK/USA).

The West (USA & UK primarily) want russia bogged down in Ukraine as much as possible, and are using this opportunity to goad russia into a regieme-destabalisng move -- i suspect it's hoped that when putin levels Kyiv, they'll be a coup.

This delusional domestic propaganda about ukrainian resistance is playing right into the strategic hands of, largely, the UK. It's a dangerous game for Europe to play, and it's a luxury the USA can't afford -- which needs russia to contain china.

The UK here is hoping europeans will come to depend on it more explicitly for security, germany arming itself here is an unexpected turn of events. The USA is still not focused on china enough to see what a silly nightmare this is going to be.
The difference though is, that this is about an existing commit. You can't change the mail address of the first commit to the git/git repository retroactively.

What you're describing is another issue.
If they do not have time acceleration I think it's clear that the fault lays with Stripe and their bad testing practices. I thought people paid Stripe to handle the "get money from humans" problem, that is a pretty broad problem though so Ig guess not. Considering it took Stripe, and lets be generous, 7 months to figure this out they obviously have problems with testing.
I've seen in HN itself that some Russians complain that the sanctions are inconveniencing them even though they have "nothing to do" with the war.

Good. That's the point. Their country started a war, and they're the only ones who can stop it without triggering a nuclear crisis. They have to care.

And since they don't care, sanctions and boycotts are making it personal for them in a non-deadly way.

In the past, if your country's fascist dictator invaded another country, you got bombed. Now you just have a drop in quality of life. It seems like a much better type of warfare.
> It boggles my mind why Turkey keeps being ignored in this discourse.

Are they? They've contributed a lot of already-legendary Bayraktar drones[1], they've rejected Russia's request to move war ships through Bosporus[2], they're pretty clearly invested in supporting Ukraine despite the unwillingness to impose sanctions on Russia.

It's like they don't understand how corps work. Who cares about the dlss source? The moment you want to use it, NVIDIA lawyers will want to talk with you. For AMD/Intel employees it's going to be the most forbidden file dump ever. Same for the drivers source code - it's like reactos devs being forbidden from looking at the NT dump from years back - you want a clean room re / implementation.
At a sufficiently intense fields, humans can detect them.

Besides, for science you need to provide evidence for an affect to prove it exists.

For people you need to provide the “negative” of evidence to prove it doesn’t exist. People and science are not the same.

There's different ways of not existing, either relatively unscathed or as a pile of rubble. I'm afraid the West for all its rhetoric is still in denial about the seriousness of Russia's intentions.

Yeah I hear/feel you on basically everything you said. Still, I just want a nice, comfortable place that I can go hang out for long parts of that day. I don’t care about it being exclusive and I would prefer it not to be.

When I was growing up book stores were kind of that place, but most of that has gone away.

One could setup an anonymous tip line on Signal and be done with it.

I used to use Stripe to process payments. One day someone bought a huge item with a stolen card.

Stripe sent me an email saying the payment had been “processed”, so I gave them the $3000 item. I later logged in and noticed “processed” meant “processing”, and the stolen card bounced at the bank a week later. They refused to take responsibility for sending me an email that clearly said the payment had been fully processed when it in fact had not been, allowing the item to be stolen.

Stripe support mocked me. They refused to cover the money and I never used them again. The only redeeming factor was it logged their IP address in the card logs, so I gave it to the police and they caught someone who had stolen hundreds of other items (but still no recuperation of lost funds for me).

I only use PayPal now. Never had an issue with PayPal, and they have always fully insured all transfers. No confusing transaction states that offload responsibility as a payment processor. None of this “we take a huge cut, but actually grant you no protection” garbage.
How did he manage to do that for so long? I'm wondering why not at least one company was secured enough to notify people about hacking, I'm sure that the case would be solved way faster. When someone tried to hack my security system from Ajax, I instantly got the notification, and so did the security company, and everything was fine after that. Well, even though he's a professional and he knows how to bypass it, I think at least one company should've security strong enough to notice him.
Russia threatened to pull out of the ISS a few days ago claiming that the station would fall to earth without them. Then People pointed out it would be straight forward to simply replace the Russian module with an extra SpaceX Dragon capsule and use its thrusters to fill the same purpose the Russian module had been.

They do, but NATO heads of state seem to forgot that Turkey exists, and is an extremely strong military power, which can put can on top of any Russian activity in their vicinity within days.
> no one else is as invested in your business as you

This is so important, and I think it's what differentiates small owner operated businesses from multinationals and chains.

Your employees are not going to idly look through logs to see if everything is running smoothly when they are done with their tasks, they'll just go home and call it a day.
As a Ukrainian: kindly, reconsider.

Russian invasion wasn't started by the West. It's not a game.

Supplying weapons and enforcing the strictest economic sanctions is the least the West can do to ensure Ukraine's — and its own — survival.

Nobody is "using" Ukraine. The invasion was in the works for a decade; the country has been at war since 2014.

And if Putin's kleptocracy figures pulling back forces, returning captured land, and paying for the damages caused is the best way to go, Ukraine would take it.

Conversely, if Ukraine falls, they have no reason to stop at Ukraine.

I hope anyone with a sense of self-preservation understands that empowering Putin's regime in Russia by inaction is suicidal.

So I stand with Ukraine, and I hope you will, too.
Like most things crypto, the initial promise is that is fixes everything (like you initially wrote), but when you dig into it, the reality is that it's often not cheap, often not quick, often not portable, often not anonymous, often not safe, often not unrestricted from confiscation. And it introduces all kinds of concerns as well: losing keys, fraud, insecure wallets, exchanges that lose your funds, ransomware, etc

Crypto has utility, yes. But it is far from a panacea and actually does not "fix" many of the problems its supporters claim it does.
But it's not just economic sanctions out of the blue in and of themselves. It's a sudden and near-total exclusion from the global financial system as a response to a war which is proving to be quite unpopular and tremendously costly ... and it's not exactly going to plan.

I'm not making any predictions, it could very well be that Putin hangs onto power no matter what the outcome. But this is not at all like the USA slapping sanctions on Venezuela, DPRK or Cuba.
That resonates on a very deep level, yes. I've worked through most of it already.

I'm not sure exactly right now what this refers to as fifth state of consciousness, is it the eight circuit model of consciousness?

If so, as of the last dark night of the soul I seem to have reached permanent and stable access to sixth circuit now with glimpses of the seventh circuit, but I don't want to go there right now and proceeding further seems like it will take some time now anyway.

I hope to maintain the current state of mind until I have grown older, maybe even until I am able to stop working and focus on this path. I am quite happy with the current, fully integrated metaconsciousness.
Launching with China is more likely, as they can ramp up capacity in two years for far less money and timeline risk. The Indians, too, could theoretically reach the orbits that OneWeb needs but with far fewer sats on each PSLV. OneWeb is partially owned by an Indian firm, so though it would be more expensive there could be other advantages.

More likely than either is to put the OneWeb birds on a Falcon 9.

Look at Russia in 1917, and what caused the Tsar to abdicate.

Sanctions on Russia can recreate these conditions.
Yes, even the pro-russian parties in ukraine are speeking out against them. Nobody will see them as non opressors, even if they put back the ousted pro-russian Viktor Yanukovych.
I do a simulated commute after a day of WFH to combat this. When my 8 hours is up I put on some podcasts and do chores, or go for a walk. Then after my commute time is over I can change into pajamas, flop on the couch, or whatever other unimportant thing I was excited to do and my brain is fully disconnected from work.
Just as a tiny side note here, this is my (U.S. native English speaker) first encounter with the word “lakh,” and it seems an incredibly useful word.
He's also implicitly calling Yemenis, Afghanistanis, Palestenians and Israelis uncivilized too. I heard the same statement ("We are too civilized for war unlike other places") coming from Ukranian tv hosts and it left me dumbfounded.

Now, how do we define civilization is the question, given that quite a few of them were growing imperium.

Is your suggestion that because Turkey has a large army, countries like the Netherlands need to increase their military capacity? Or reduce it? Or neither/other?
Can you share what kind of tasks you've successfully outsourced? In my experience it was very hard to outsource task with a vague definition like "look for things that aren't running smoothly".
For me, things like react and vue are DEDICATED to the front end. They are great for building UIs and have great ergonomics.

Backend frameworks that I LOVE (asp.net, laravel) have templating languages that feel like an afterthought, and passing data to them sucks (I usually have to redeclare what data they receive somewhere, or it’s entirely a dynamic paradigm) editor support is ok AT BEST… all of the sudden part of my app is dynamic c#, which c# isn’t good at.

My choice of backend should be absolutely divorced from my choice of front end. I can write an api in node, c#, go, etc and I don’t have to totally change how my front end works.

And splitting state between front end and backend (as mentioned throughout the comments here) is awful and error prone. There is a reason large scale apps aren’t using vanilla js or jquery and hand rolling state management etc.

It’s all about the size of the app, complexity, division of labor (I can hire a front end specialist who spends 70-80% of their time on front end)… the only goal isn’t JUST performance but if you do it right you get that too.
As with all these "this X doesn't exist" sites, the images look ok at first sight, but when you start to look closer you notice that some things aren't quite right. In this case, it's mostly roads that don't seem to connect to anything...
EU looks at preventing use of crypto to avoid Russia sanctions
"...The FCA said it had “reached out to each crypto firm registered with us to ensure that they are aware of sanctions and their responsibilities” and was “working with partners to actively monitor these firms”. “We have made it clear to crypto firms, banks and others that we expect them to focus on their sanction controls and, with our partners, we will be supervising their actions...”
Not a single Dracula in Romania. Hmm.
I bear responsibility because I happened to be born in the wrong country, OK. Will tell this to my mom if Russia is not disconnected tomorrow and I can still call her.
Our brains often cause us to do things we consider accidents, e.g. fumbling an egg. It's still me that has done it, and I am still responsible to clean up the mess. The fact that I didn't do it 'deliberately' doesn't negate my culpability and responsibility, although it may change its character.

Yes.

There seems to be a feeling among some people that fighting is only worthwhile if you win, and if there's even the slightest chance that you'll lose you should immediately give up. That's not how you remain free.

In the short term Ukrainians can fight for their country. If they win, great. They've kept their country. If they lose, then there will be a long war until Russia decides to withdraw. Ukraine is a huge country with long borders and plenty of places to hide. Russia holding it against a well-equipped guerrilla army will be impossible. It'll be like the US and British in Afghanistan, except Russia has nowhere near the resources to fight for decades.
From the outside, yes. But from the inside the EU is what kept the peace.

The Russians don't seem to care all that much about whether they can legally kill someone or not, they kill them anyway. The bulk of the casualties in Ukraine is not because of confrontations but because of massive shelling of cities.
