An email address can only be associated to a single GitHub account.

If “Alice” adds alice@example.test to their account, GitHub will check if the email is not associated to an existing account, and then proceed to handle the request. Then, when “Bob” tries to add the same email to their account, GitHub prints the following error message “ Error adding alice@example.test: email is already in use.”

In your example, GitHub will display the username of the first user to add the (unverified) email to their account.
Dude, right now all of us are in deep shock, while:

- some are trying to find their relatives in Ukraine

- some are coordinating and volunteering

- some are trying to get themselves and their families outside of Russia (which gets harder by the minute because of prices and sanctions)

- some are trying to smuggle at least some of the money outside, because their entire life savings are now blocked

- some are trying to preserve what they have despite ruble and market crashing

- some are hunkering down with what they have and their loved ones, trying to stockpile some food before prices skyrocket

and no one has any time to cope and process anything - don't forget usual workloads, too. planning for a week feels like it's already a strategic, not a tactical scope

I get what you're trying to do, but can't you at least give more time for everyone? Right now I need to drop everything and migrate my DNS as well because my private email that I use for docs will stop working in 6 days. And to figure out how to pay the transfer fees while doing all that. It's very much fucking stressful already.

edit: I've worded that badly - I'm not complaining, I'm just asking for a bit longer grace period for everyone. It's very easy to miss an email for 6 days during these times. All of these issues are obviously dwarfed by what Ukrainian people are going through right now.
Same, with one exception. I think there are specific situations that call for an abstract data type. And some subset of those times calls for an interface so you can have multiple kinds of that interface.

But rarely. Only when specifically called for by the problem at hand. A very far cry from “everything is an object.”
The companies miss their own targets. This is very common in early companies because they are often delusionally optimistic.
The burgers are overpriced compared to In-N-Out, but the lines are much shorter as a result. Fries aren't cheap, but 90% of the time a 'small' fries at Five Guys is bigger than a large anywhere else.
> the atomization of capitalist society (in the form of private property, and everyone having to struggle against everyone else to survive) is a prerequisite to legitimize the absolute central power of fascism, under which hope and solidarity don't have a place.

Competition is a fact of life, and private property is a pre-requisite to freedom. Fascism is just one more form of collectivism that crushes individuality, and thus freedom and hope. I'm not interested in that kind of solidarity and the link you've provided is tenuous.

Regardless, freedom of speech is more effective than hate speech laws in staving off fascism, history, if not good sense, shows us that.
Leaving isn't just expensive, but there are also matters such as visas.
That's beside the point. With the presence they have in Ukraine they are forcing their employees to trade with what is at the moment their mortal enemy. That's impossible.

Personally I think the tax bit is thin, but I totally understand the pressure on their employees and that that does not feel right. They are waiting for the next missile impact while at the same time they are working to keep the websites of their enemy up and running, that's not something you should want or expect.
When you're in a crisis situation, the last thing one needs is even more pressing things to get done. Especially ambiguous ones like writing some pleasant appeal to support, and hoping for understanding. And worrying that if support falls back to the large print policy, then having even less time to effect a transfer.

If you're serving the like of RT.com then redirect that to somewhere truthful yesterday, but turning the screws on individuals feeds right into Putin's censorship goals. At least consider moving your deadline back to something more graceful like 60 or even 30 days.
That's not true, did you read the MDN page?

John Mearsheimer was working with the facts he had available at the time, clearly. You even hint at that yourself. Seven years is a long time for change in a dynamic environment. One thing I am aware of:

- Ukraine sealed the canal that delivered 85% of Crimea's fresh water supply, so it's been more costly to keep Crimea with each passing year.

>I haven't seen where he has made any public statements since the invasion started.

It's been five days, hardly enough time to gather information on the environment and put together a research paper on it.

Also, a wrong conclusion does not mean the underlying research or thesis is wrong.
This is not specific to Russia. It's also not even close to dehumanizing. Locally, my employer handles the taxes from my income. I get both numbers on the payslips and get an annual national summary of "what were my taxes spent on".
Ask HN: What apps would you install if there was an extended internet outage?
Here are a few of mine, for android since that's what I have.

* F-Droid

This is an obvious one, F-droid is an open source app store, it can also work peer-to-peer, so you can use this to install all the other apps on other peoples phones with no internet.

* Kiwix

Offline wikipedia reader, lets you download wikipedia

* Osmand

Offline mapping, lets you download maps

* Briar project

P2p "store and forward" messaging. Messages are encrypted and people can carry a message between communities.

Are there any apps you'd want to have available if there was a very long term internet outage? I imagine if that happened apps wouldn't be a very high priority, but it's something simple that can be done pretty easily.
I find this action from Namecheap really lazy virtue signalling and your justifications to be hypocritical, for reasons pointed out elsewhere in this thread.

If you were really interested in attempting to do the right thing, you would ban on a case-by-case basis, or donate a percentage of your profits to the Red Cross in Ukraine or something. There's no justification for this heavy-handed nonsense.

I'll do my best to stay away from your company.
One narrative I've heard is that Russia is the only petro state in Europe and gets as much as 50% of their revenue from oil and gas. However, Ukraine also have some fossil fuel resources in the eastern and western edges of its territory along with huge gas reserves off of the Crimea peninsula.

So maybe Russia is not so much served by the chaos of war as much as it needs to maintain a strangle hold over the gas and oil trade to Western Europe. Annexing the Crimea and the Donbas region gives it control over most of Ukraine's fossil fuel resources.
How is he better than Putin? I think it’s safe to assume he never invaded a sovereign nation? (Or murdered any journalists, or shot down a passenger jet, or murdered political rivals, or bombed apartment blocks, or attacked foreign elections, or sponsored mercenary groups to overthrow African governments)
Though the timing is suspicious, it's presently not known which of the two it is, so the ambiguous phrasing seems appropriate.
Given that Russia has VAT, the only way for Russians to stop paying taxes is to starve to death.
> I want my registrar to be a registrar, not a political entity.

Corporations are creation of states through law, and thereby inherently political entities; further, they are mechanisms of the sponsoring stakeholders —ultimately, even if indirectly, flesh and blood human beings (stockholders in the typical capitalist business enterprise) to pursue their interests, which may usually be predominantly profit for business entities, but are rarely exclusively that, when the chips are down.
More or less than during the war in Ukraine?

Hey, a genuine thanks for voicing your thoughts on this.

I agree with what you say, I just hoped that someone had valiantly spent their time compiling a list of claims by all sides that I could read through, and drill into each one, just to have some perspective, if I ever care to.
Using docker on my rented server which has postgres, no issues. Pretty cheap obviusly.

And legitimacy.
> Will they be refunding the customers they are kicking out? Or will they be keeping the money for services not rendered?

Namecheap support staff is happy process your request of a refund for the service. Unfortunately, processing the refund may take a while, because the said support staff is hiding in a metro tunnel or dead.
It is clear from this that things have gone horribly awry for Russia. It seems that the expectation was that this would be a quick job with the West more or less shaking their fist.

The situation has devolved into near complete economic isolation for Russia with a West more united than ever and most of Russia's allies distancing them.

Plan A has failed. I do not know what the gains from any Plan B are (if there is one). I can't imagine they would be a net positive. Even in the most optimistic scenario I can't imagine this will be anything but a catastrophe for Russia.
They are a private corporation who is able to choose who to do business with, including blacklisting a full nation.

They also have what sounds like a sizeable workforce in Ukraine itself, so it should be pretty obvious why they chose to blacklist the entire nation invading their direct coworkers'.
One thing to note, judicial and Bar complaints are generally not considered court records.

In theory, anything that went to trial would have transcripts available (unless it's sealed, like for minors). Many of these complaints could still have the transcripts available for the cases associated with them. But it's hard to tell what the alleged problem or misconduct is. I emphasize alleged because I assume the nonpublic ones were ones in which the lawyer was not found "guilty". In my state, the Bar will only investigate prosecutors if the court has already issued a statement determining prosecutorial misconduct occurred. So prosecutors get off without scrutiny most of the time.
Namecheap has just ruined its reputation. Giving almost no time for domain transfer is insane. I will avoid using your services at any cost.
> I cannot with good conscience continue to support the Russian regime in any way, shape or form. People that are getting angry need to point that at the cause, their own government

I understand you have a lot of employees in Ukraine and you have to show support. Your heart is in the right place. I empathize and would try to do the same if I was in your shoes. But you didn't do a good job here, unfortunately.

When gitlab had to make a similar move [0] at least they had a good excuse — security of their customers' data.

Your message does not make any excuses like that. You straight up equate being russian / living in russia / whatever it is with supporting the war. You fell victim to the same primitive xenophobic thinking you're claiming to condemn.

This is a bad decision. Being a CEO is a tough job, but I think you could do better. I wish you luck.

This clip from Jon Stewart's New podcast sums it all up for me. People want to be fulfilled, intellectually and socially, from their jobs. They don't simply want the maximization of salary, societal benefit/value, praise, etc. They just want to be fulfilled doing interesting work they feel utilizes their talents to make the world better (or at least not worse).

Sure, if I had bad breath or if I was walking around with my fly open, your comment would apply. But, in this case, the only useful information conveyed is that I'm violating an arbitrary date formatting convention, and that some people become unreasonably angry whenever they see an arbitrary convention being violated.

But, obviously enough, I already know I'm violating the date formatting convention, and I could hardly be more aware of those people. My theory is that, like Carmen Ortiz, they like attacking people because it makes them feel powerful, and violations of arbitrary conventions give them the opportunity.
Putin is in his 70s. He does not have years to come.
Which I personally think is a mistake.

I'm in the FSD beta and previously Tesla bounced the radar off the ground and was able to see a few car lengths ahead, vision only, not so much. The effect is when stuck in heavy traffic on surface streets FSD beta will think it should try to go around a lead car that is stopped, not knowing there is a long line of traffic ahead of the lead car. I don't see how they can overcome that issue with vision only, especially given current camera placement.
I think you answered in the wrong thread (which is very easy to do on HN).

I applaud your action, but I think you should give private individuals with registered domains the benefit of the doubt for now and concentrate on companies, also I think that the tax angle is weak. The dissonance to have your employees' lives at risk from the very same Russians that are looking to get some customer support is the main factor I think.
Pretty sure the Perimeter is still alive & well, quietly waiting for this exact situation. Don’t think it’s a bluff.
Although I'd like to applaud any alternative to Google Play the approach F-Droid pursues does not fit a serious security model. F-Droid builds are custom signed and can be made by random parties without proper auditing after initial review.

Also, it is stuck on old APIs and won't allow the use of Android's new unattended update feature (UPDATE_PACKAGES_WITHOUT_USER_ACTION) and requires intrusive privileged system access to do that.

A more serious flaw opposing the Android security model is the fact that an app store is supposed to feed from a single repository which F-Droid does not adhere to.

Also, often these repos are poorly maintained, rarely updated and often conflict with Play Store packages because they use identical app ids.

All they care about is to be free from "evil proprietary components" which comes at a great cost of security and inescapably privacy.

It's just not a good choice for these and additional reasons such as building a ton of their apps unattendedly on a potentially malicious server.
I get what you're saying.

> DIYing something similar is far more convenient than buying a B3

I wonder if they will start doing something like Hauptwerk organs[1] but for Hammond emulation. Currently I even struggle to find dual keyboard waterfall midi controller[2]. If it was easier I would install something like the software version of the Crumar (Gsi) and I would build my own. But I don't have time to do things like buying a Fatar waterfall and do the low level work.

For instance, some firms are setting pay ranges that are specific to Colorado, hinting that the pay might not be the same elsewhere. Others are posting salaries with ranges of as much as $100,000 or more between the low and high ends.

(I am residing in Russia, anti-war, anti-regime and don't have any domains with Namecheap)

Launching a major land war: let's take the Iraq operation for instance. Did any private company cut ties with its US customers over that? I really doubt it. Could an ordinary US citizen realistically do something to prevent the Iraq war? I really doubt it. Have the Iraq war lead to anything good? I don't think so. Death, destruction and ISIS.

"Have you thought about leaving? Can you and your family and friends easily emigrate?"

When you have real family and friend connection - you can never "easily emigrate". There is always a relative to a relative and a close friend with relatives, which adds up quickly and the bigger the group, the harder to move or find asylum at all. And which state would be willing to welcome russians, when there is so much talk again about collective punishment?

And how to get your assets out, when both the russian state as well as the western states are trying to block exactly this?

I doubt there is an "easy way" for ordinary people to get out.
You inadvertently argued against your own point. Your friend's startup died, that damages the economy, that is what economic sanctions are designed to do. Whether the specific instance of sanctioning was justified is another matter of course, but the point is that the economy was damaged. That hurts ordinary people yes, but - this is a war. Better an economic hit than being bombed or shot.
I’d add an I/O interface to the kernel that was built to be asynchronous from Day 0.
For everyone looking for a new registrar, I suggest Porkbun, they are usually cheaper, provide the same features as Namecheap and hav excellent customer support.
In support of all the innocent people affected by Namecheap's actions, I will also be transferring all my domains out of Namecheap.

I clearly said one of the reasons was the number of crypto coin startups had gone down. I got several responses in terms of investments which is really evidence of it’s own sort.

Of note, I didn’t refer to the ROI from holding coins which is way down. I suggest it take a second and consider why I didn’t make that argument.
I've seen an argument for immediately execing and not marking the whole mutable process VA space as 'trap on write', including the thread stack that you're about immediately write to if you're going to throw that work away and exec(). There's also 'I want support cheap forks on a nommu system and vforking is easier to retrofit in'.
Are you implying that lives lost from the drone strikes are somehow less worthy than those of journalists and activists? Or is it the degree of closeness to the murders? (not trying to troll, genuinely interest since you did not disagree with drone strikes killing humans)
I can't read this paywalled article, so I'll comment on the title. Get serious. If Samsung had a bad quarter, would they reduce the pay of their employees?

When I started work at Apple in 1988, the company had a profit-sharing program for employees. Profit-sharing is a a one-time bonus for a good quarter, which makes a little more sense than a permanent pay bump. In the early 2000's, when asked about profit-sharing at a company meeting, Steve Jobs responded that employees should buy Apple stock instead. AAPL was very cheap at the time. (The rest is history.)
Easy to say when you are not the target.

Making me use 50% less electricity is one thing. Having to move all my domains would be quite another.
I legitimately don't understand what argument you are even trying to make here.

A private corporation is able to choose who to do business with, for any reason they want. They are not beholden to anyone but themselves and their shareholders.

Namecheap has a sizeable Ukranian workforce, they have elected to put them above their Russian customers. As should be, honestly, obvious, to everyone reading here.

Nobody is claiming this will overthrow the government but you.
Shouldn't they be held to the standard of providing you with the services you paid for? What you're hoping to see more of changes with the wind, and all of the things that trigger cancellation may not be disclosed when you sign up and agree to rely on the provider, or you may not be aware.
I don't see how verifying the email fixes the problem. Emails (like domains) expire and the original user of the address may lose control of them.

Indeed, came to say the same. Toward the end of the IEEE article it has this:

> We’ve also triggered nuclear reactions by pumping deuterium gas through a thin wall of a palladium-silver alloy tubing, and by electrolytically loading palladium with deuterium. In the latter experiment, we’ve detected fast neutrons.

"electrolytically loading palladium with deuterium" is very, very similar to the Pons/Fleischman setup, which was basically electrolysis with palladium electrodes.
> We take our obligations to protect confidential data with the utmost seriousness

But doesn't this content need to be reviewed (read permitted) by other non-anon user accounts?
Refusing a service from the get go is different than pulling the rug out from your existing customers. Why not just stop new Russian domains and require people transfer their domains when they expire?
1. How does this compare to MightyApp [0]? Does Mighty work on the UI side automatically, while Drifting in Space requires that the app has some kind of data layer separation to allow acceleration of just the data processing?

2. Is the data processing stream or batch?

3. Could Mighty + DiS work together to completely accelerate a data- and UI-heavy application?

Context: I have been working recently with a reporting-heavy company that is continually using data analysis to understand risk, combat fraud, and identify key patterns in user actions and data.

OsmAnd~ is spectacularly good. If you spend a lot of time hiking, biking or just traveling outside, i also recommend Trail Sense (compass and a bunch of other things), Forecastie (weather, including wind speed) and BRouter (offline routing if you need a route but don't have signal).

QuickDic is also very useful if you are traveling to areas where you don't speak the language. Offline dictionaries with very quick lookup. It's worth installing AnkiDroid too, if you do spaced repetition for language learning.

I agree with this 100% but you should also see the confusion among non-technical people when my spouse gives them her firstname@lastname.com email address (a totally valid inbox on a server that I run, I run our own authoritative DNS and choose where to set the MX, etc).

She works in a non-technical field and some percentage of people simply can't grasp the concept that an ordinary person owns their family name as a domain name.
