Micropayments have been available in various forms well before BTC was a thing and they never took off. Micropayments also necessitate L2 solutions more than almost any other feature using blockchains since fees are nontrivial at that level even on rarely used chains.

I think that “anyone” should be interpreted as “anyone in this thread”. Of course you can find people arguing against anything being wrong with American football; you can find people arguing there are little gnomes living in their ears. And that’s probably excluding the Lizardman’s Constant.

I can see the city paying for the stadium so that they can use it for a variety of events and purposes. They need to start charging the large revenue generating sports more.
Full disclosure, I can't promise that, but I promise.

Dude ranchers are, for the most part, not a very technically savvy group, and that's an opportunity he's pursued pretty heavily. (This is reading from his own tweets and writing, plus a bit of my own experience growing up in Montana.) Peter's main gig these days is running RanchWork.com, which is a job board for dude ranchers. He's been writing and tweeting about how he paid like $3k for a print ad in a ranching magazine and nearly tripled his posting revenue the following month. ($3k posting per month before the print ad, $8k after.)

Most dude ranches are mom and pop shops out west. They're not owned by Hilton or Mariott; there's no software engineering staff helping them build SEO platforms and booking systems.
Lots of the cereal crops do not require much processing.

As kids out roaming, my brother and I (and sometimes cousins) would pull the heads off of barley and wheat and chew the grains. My dad did it as a kid too, and as surely as I have an ape for an ancient uncle, it didn't start with us. In fact, when you're out hunting (and gathering), you browse for berries, seeds or grains, as and where the plants stand. And maybe you fill your shirt with stuff to take home.

Knowledge of planting can come the same way. You notice after years of coming back from a reliable food patch that the plants are now growing right along side the trail, and you realized, "from spilled seeds!"

Or that your midden heap has sprouted apple trees. You ate the fruit and tossed the cores in the same place.

Its a short logical leap from those observations to deliberately planting patches, then helping things along by clearing ground. Boom, agriculture.

> I don't think that that is true anymore. It used to be, but sports is competing for eyeballs with all the other entertainment out there.

In 2021, 95 of the top 100 most-watched TV broadcasts in the US were sports. More people watched the Raiders play on Thanksgiving than watched the presidential inauguration.

I have played VR. Several headsets in different setups. It's fun if you are riding a VR roller coaster or sitting in a boat as a tourist, but the only games I played that were halfway decent were Beat Saber and Alyx. Those games have addressed the controls issue better than the other games I've tried, but the sweating, fogged goggles, and the aching feet definitely still showed up in those games.
"Best viewed in IE" was the norm for years and years, supporting only the major browsers has pretty much always been the case.

HN is surely different in that the comments are all public.
This is definitely true to an extent, and sports absolutely help with recognition. However, as native Rochesterian, and unashamed Bills and Sabres fan, with close ties to Buffalo, although the population numbers are similar, now, Buffalo was once a much larger city than Rochester, and still feels significantly larger. This probably accounts for some of Buffalo being a much more recognizable place than Rochester, too.
I’d love for you to list even 5 western universities that have courses on MMT. In addition, equivocating MMT to central planning (which is in your view, equivalent to Marxism?) is completely nonsensical.
I think if most shops after some incremental bonus for overnight on-call, just nobody would sign up. Salaries are high enough without it.
In the summer if I don’t sleep with my mask off I start to feel myself slowly unhinging. Sun being out at 2am while you’re trying to sleep can definitely make you feel out of it! Hard to find blackout curtains that work perfectly too.
The worst are the attempts to sneak-in on-call responsibilities. A while ago I interviewed for a "DevOps" role and then turns out that in addition to DevOps, they also want you to troubleshoot user (business) issues, be on-call and ideally do some on-demand coding too. Sure, why not also throw in project management and marketing as well for good measure...
> The German natural gas dependency is going to be the strategic blunder of the decade

This has been a problem for decades, plural:

> The year: 1987. The president: Ronald Reagan. The dilemma: What to do about the new gas pipeline that Europe was building to Russia, one of America’s key foreign policy rivals. Blinken’s first book, Ally Versus Ally: America, Europe, and the Siberian Pipeline Crisis, was published by a then-unknown young writer in 1987. But the dilemma it explores bears remarkable similarities to the challenges the Biden administration is about to face when it takes office. In fact, looking at Blinken’s analysis of U.S. foreign policy during the 1980s provides some tantalizing clues as to how he plans to guide American diplomacy if he is confirmed as Biden’s secretary of state.

> The “Siberian pipeline crisis” that formed the subject of Ally Versus Ally has been forgotten by all but specialists.

Yeah I would think it would be rugby. There's a fair few basketball courts in the UK (often combined with tennis courts) but professionally it's not on the radar at all. Less so even than ice hockey.
We're disturbing the worth chain. By giving equipment and programming, we set out more open doors for everybody. Hacking engines and cars capable of flying. This isn't simply tomorrow, it's currently. We are making it more straightforward for you to do what you couldn't previously.
If satire, it's hilarious. If not, it's ridiculous. The same people will take it seriously either way, so there's not much difference.
People in Buffalo aren't happy about this, but the Bills are a BIG part of this city's identity. The Bills owner (an oil billionaire, by the way) is threatening take the team to another city if the state doesn't help pay for the stadium.
If teams want a stadium, they should give the funding municipalities equity. A huge fraction of control.
If you want extra hot places that had improved in terms of cars there is Seville also with a lot of recent bike lanes.

Like Scottish in UK, they have a peculiar way to speak Spanish and all the common nuissances of being in a big city, but you will be dealing with just one language (Valencia and Barcelona speak two at the same time) and should be cheaper to live than both. Andalucía has a lot to offer in terms of gorgeous nature, culture (ancient mix of jew, muslim and christian heritages and links with America) and great food. Many good beaches at a reasonable distance and connected with Madrid by fast train AVE (2 hours 30 min) 15 times a day or so.

The climate in summer is a little hot to me but if you live in Australia shouldn't be much different. Similar range of temperatures than Brisbane but less humid.

My main concern would be the tech scene. Barcelona/Madrid are unbeatable in that.

Protected folders has existed for a while, in practical terms is almost useless, because you can’t create groups of protected folders for different type of applications, thus protecting too many folders will have consequence of you need to allow almost every application you regularly use.

Therefore protected folders works best if either a) you only use a very limited set of approved applications, which of course is rarely the case if you are skilled enough to know what protected folders are, or b) you only protect one folder with text documents that you only read in notepad, but if you have that case it is better to put them in a encrypted storage.
It does have a decent editor, though: Evil mode.
So your rebuttal is... that cultural Marxists took over Wikipedia and edited the article for cultural Marxism in order to make themselves look like anti-Semites? You're right, that is ridiculous.

Fine then, here are some articles from the Guardian[0], the Conversation [1] and SPLC[2]. Let me guess... all of those were taken over by cultural Marxists as well?

The fact is TFA doesn't even have anything to do with Marxism in academia. You just saw the words "Chinese" and "American campuses" in the title and got triggered, which doesn't help disprove the thesis that belief in "cultural Marxism" is fundamentally rooted in xenophobia.

SentinelOne to acquire Attivo Networks for $616.5M
As a CISO from Germany I can tell you the problems we have, if we want to use US-based services. As soon as we want to transfer PII to such services we have to write down a full Data Protection Impact Assessment for our legal regulators. Since the USA isn't a "safe destination country" under EU laws (especially EU GDPR), we have to ensure that the data is transferred and stored encrypted by the services. In addition we need a written(!) Data Processing Agreement, that ensures the services are not transferring any data to third parties including intelligence agencies and that all data is only processed within the limitations of GDPR. This contract also must ensure, that the provider informs us, if any intelligence agency asks for our data. So, it's a lot of paperwork and bureaucracy to handle. And finally we need an entry in our data processing index that defines a security contact at the service provider together with details about the kind of data we transfer to the service.
However, it doesn't make any difference if your servers are located in the EU or in the US, at least from the legal perspective. If we transfer data to US-based companies we have to do all that. But it makes European companies feel better if the servers at least can't be seized by U.S. intelligence agencies. ;)
But... we'll get a better latency if the servers are located in the EU. And as far as I know GCP also offers data centers in the EU.

This feels like a worse thing to me. “You can sell this thing to people, but only people who have done some other sort of on chain transaction” opens the door for a huge mess.

“You can sell to people who aren’t a member of a union.”

“You can sell to people who never donated money to the ACLU.”

“You can sell to people who don’t own a gun.”

Is that the direction we really want?

Vim Reference Guide
Hello!

"Vim Reference Guide" is intended as a concise learning resource for beginner to intermediate level Vim users. I hope this guide would make it much easier for you to discover Vim features and learning resources than my own blundering experience.

To celebrate the release, ebook version is free to download till 31-Mar-2022:

* https://learnbyexample.gumroad.com/l/vim_reference_guide

* https://leanpub.com/vim_reference_guide

Some of my other ebooks and bundles are on sale and I'm currently creating short 1-3 minute videos to highlight Vim features. You can find these details in the above links.

Visit https://github.com/learnbyexample/vim_reference for markdown source and other details related to the book.

Hope you find these resources useful. Let me know your feedback.

Happy learning :)

Seems to be a VR game where targets light up and you hit balls at them using the VR controller.

It doesn't look like there's any force feedback, or measurement of how hard you hit, which will avoid the problems suffered by things like Zwift where issues like poorly calibrated power meters limit the possibilities for serious competition.
On GitHub, you can change the PR target branch to the previous PR in the stack to get an incremental diff. If you merge a PR lower in the stack, a PR pointing to that will auto update its branch.

With that in mind, you can change the top of the stack PR to the default branch to get a complete diff.

Having lived in Germany, I must say the quality of customer service there is the worst I have ever seen.

+ A fridge I purchased was delivered with a 2 weeks delay, at 10:30PM (!!) on a Saturday (only because I kept calling every other day).

+ I've ordered a new broadband connection for an apartment I was renting. After several months (!) of waiting and calls, I found out that the former tenant had unpaid bills with the provider and they therefore refused to establish the connection (I was only informed about this after 5-6 weeks of wait during which I was told everything's ok and pending execution).

Here's a story about how my laptop was broken and I was calling a repair shop:

Me: "Good morning, my laptop doesn't seem to display anything, looks like it's a problem with the screen, how does the pricing work in this situation?"

Shop: "Ugh...", the guy is annoyed.

Shop: "This is like saying you have a headache, and asking a doctor what needs to be done!", He shouts.

Me: "No need to get angry, I was just wondering-"

Shop: "Just bring it to the store!" - hangs up.

This is a perfectly normal experience dealing with customer service in Germany.

Elsewhere in this thread somebody is claiming that a Ticketmaster system could defeat scalpers by preventing resales to anybody who didn’t buy a band’s album. That sounds like an authority that decides whether I can send money to someone.
I would argue that London is actuallyba very good example. I would wager that a significant portion of non UK soccer fans would not even know that all these teams are in London (let's not even talk about non soccer fans). So yes the OP was correct London is not known for their sports teams. I think Manchester is probably an example of a city that is known mainly for its sports team.
Dubai fits the climate criteria.

It has some tech scene, would love to have someone comment on this.

80%+ of Dubai are expats so it is probably diverse.

Where I work it seems quite decent. There's 24/7 operations staff and other overnight staff to handle minor issues. If there's anything that is affecting the site that would get us in legal trouble without a fix or is losing a lot of money, then people will get called out.

The rotation is like a week every 2 months. You get paid a substantial amount extra for that week, and you get paid on top of that if you get a call out. Even if it takes you 10 minutes to resolve or there's no issue, you get paid a minimum of a few hours at 2x pay.

It's insane to me that there's places with multiple call outs a day and people don't get paid extra.

For me, being on call is pay rise for the week. It just means I can't venture too far away from home without my laptop. It's so rare to get called out.

Tangential question - what are other examples of solutions that can be vaguely summarized as "platform for hosting and managing (and routing) discrete static websites" are out there?

I'm looking for streamlined alternatives to the following architecture (which works okay, but has too many separate parts):

- Static websites compiled with different assets from the same root create discrete independent "public" folders
- Folders are uploaded to a single bucket in Amazon S3
- Route53 and a separate reverse-proxy nginx server handle traffic to X.domain.com where X is the name of a folder in S3
This looks really well made, congratulations!

Just an FYI, how oxygen was produced has been roughly known for a long time: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Oxidation_Event

This research is additional details/evidence on the evolutionary path of the suspect life forms.

The Great Oxidation Event was also the largest mass extinction event in planet's history. Prior to mass availability of oxygen almost all organisms were anaerobic and oxygen was poisonous to them, just like other strong oxidants, for example chlorine or fluorine, are poisonous to us.

Other than the contactless/app part of it, I saw McDonaldses with this tech decades ago. It hasn't seemed to be a game changer until now. What I see here of promise is maximizing parallel service with the minimum amount of land usage. Since you'll need room for multiple cars (and in America today, that means unreasonably giant SUVs), I'm not sure how much benefit you'd get from robot cooks. Without a dining area, it would probably be a relatively spacious kitchen.

Prices are high all over the world except for countries where governments subsidize the price of fuel, or impose price controls. Those are populist measures which can't usually be sustained. Either the cheap fuel gets smuggled out leading to shortages, or the government runs out of foreign currency reserves.
