That's most besides the point and disingeneous thing I've ever read on HN.

What link is there between COVID management and the colonial empires ? How can administration predating or concurrent to the industrial revolution could possibly be used as a placeholder for current administrations ? Your comment makes no sense.
My concern is that this can too easily result in disaster like a herd of cattle stampeding over a cliff. Everyone's rushing along together, everyone's safe in the herd, and then, oops, goodbye herd. We need more people willing to say "hey you idiots, you're all heading for a cliff".

The problem is that anyone saying that will become persona non grata... maybe the really smart cattle just extract themselves from the stampede, thinking, "too bad for you fools, it's a Darwin moment, guess that means more grass for me."

Unfortunately that strategy doesn't really work when humans are stampeding for nuclear war and climatic destruction, there won't be any grass left for anyone.
The alternative is to write the feature yourself. Probably not better from a security point of view. And you have to maintain it yourself.

> they say they are "anti-censorship" and won't evict writers from their "private platform"

"Anti-censorship" is hugely unpopular with the mainstream intellectual community these days. It's close to being a dog whistle for the alt-right. I'm surprised this is a stance that would attract more "excellent writers".

> "IMHO blind bidding is an unethical practice"

When you're applying to a new job, do you feel it's ok for the hiring company to ask you what exactly you currently make so that they can offer you $1.00 more than what you currently today? If not, how is that not "unethical"? (Also note, in the US at least - you can't ask someone what they currently earn).

I just don't understand why it's unethical.

Maybe the seller way under estimated the value of their home, why shouldn't they be allowed to sell it at the highest price?

EDIT: why the downvote? If you don't agree - why not reply so we can have a healthy dialogue.
Ahh, that helps a bunch. Thank you!
If you just want to take a precompiled binary and install it, you just have to write a derivation wrapper around the binary which will declare the expected hash and take care of e.g. unzipping and moving to $out/bin.

Here is a more involved example of downloading a release and then extracting the binary from a .pkg file: https://gist.github.com/J-Swift/364a8b158bf0b603f6e784e454ca...

Here is a more simplified example: https://gist.github.com/mitchellh/c47e3333bb78f57836ba2aa806...

EDIT: to get the sha, unfortunately you have to perform some esoteric command line incantations: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/1880#issuecomment-366615... and https://gist.github.com/boxofrox/d8a3080fbb03f84b7d7a31e102b...

Another Debian desktop user here. Ages ago I tried a lot of different distros, but none of them just stay running like Debian. My computers are for using, not for fixing random errors at inconvenient times.

The installation process, that I have to run when a local disk eventually fails is insignificant compared to constantly fixing shit. (And yes, it's not a nice process - even worse because every time I run it, it changed.)
IRST can help, but it's like viewing the world through a straw. It works best when cued by other systems. I'm unaware of any telephoto systems in use since the F-14 was retired (obviously excluding the few airframes Iran might still be using).

> Let me clear up a huge and very common misconception: an (alleged) GPL violation like this doesn't mean that you, the recipient, suddenly has the right to demand that the rest of the code be released as GPL

That's not clear.

That's a hotly debated topic, because of the “intended third-party beneficiary” doctrine in contract law, which clearly gives people other than parties a right to sue (why it is debated is because it is debated how the doctrine applies to the GPL specifically, and it may differ among different particular cases where the license is used, since it isn't just a question of the bare contract language.)

> they put in a policy requiring an email at the end of every of what we did

Every day? Every week? You left out a word.

Every day would be awful. Every week isn't bad. At my work, we recently implemented a Slack bot that would ask you on Friday what you got done, what you wanted to get done but didn't, if you have any blockers, and what you hope to accomplish next week. Honestly, when it was first deployed, I hated the idea of it, but after a couple weeks, I had noticed that there were times when Friday came and I was thinking "I got fucking nothing done this week", but being prompted by the bot to answer the weekly questions made me stop and think harder on it, then I realized I actually was pretty productive.
You do realize only a fraction of demonstration was arrested, and that for every person who risked getting beaten up and arrested there are many of his friends and relatives who support his views
Something like this built directly into emacs that launches when people run it for the first time with no config (and no file opened) would be great.
I have to wonder: isn't this how democratizing information goes in general? In my lifetime I think we did it yet again with the Internet and especially social media. On the good side, people who care enough can check and study the source for just about anything; on the bad side, we see that most people don't care enough and are perfectly OK with consuming lies and manipulation. Then came people who were also perfectly OK with producing any kind of lie and manipulation to get what they wanted. And they largely did get what they wanted, up to and including presidential elections. We now have both: more educated, curious, and well-informed people than ever and more manipulative, toxic charlatans with huge followings than ever. It would be great if we could have the former without the latter, but would that be possible, even in theory? I'm not sure...

No shady stuff going on either, https://github.com/mirror/tinycc/blob/mob/tcctools.c sais the same thing.

Edit: texi2pod.pl however does seem to be GPL, and not LGPL: https://github.com/mirror/tinycc/blob/mob/texi2pod.pl however, perl isn't linked, so there's probably a way out there.

il-opcodes does seem to be GPL2+, and the header arguably would end up in the binary thus forcing everything to be GPL? https://github.com/mirror/tinycc/blob/mob/il-opcodes.h

Edit 2:

I think I've resolved this: Fabrice Bellard already agreed to relicense under a permissive license, see: https://github.com/mirror/tinycc/blob/mob/RELICENSING

Thus, I think it would be really hard to argue that there's any problem left, since the only file here that could be in violation (il-opcodes) is authored by fabrice bellard and arguably already permissively licensed.

In a sense, most of the so called bubbles occurring right now are due to a lack of tech and innovation. The issue isn’t that Home prices are inflated, the issue is our most innovative solution for home ownership is credit hand outs. The Finance sector is not innovative enough to solve this. We’d need to think about building denser cities and pragmatic modern housing. Affordable housing doesn’t have to mean “middle or low income in certain area”. These are old industries of finance and old progressive ideas that simply are not disruptive enough.

We’re starving for innovation.
Oh yes please, I mean if it was that obvious I guess you would tell me any metric to push your assessment.

The weird thing about needing a lot of dependencies is that sysctl is a pretty simple application. It's just a list of variables you read out of the kernel. It doesn't seem like the program that manages it should be terribly complex.
Granted, this program does the manpage lookup for each variable so that adds some complexity, but that could be pre-compiled into a standardized data format pretty easily.
I have no dog in this hunt, but I just looked this up, and there's no indication he 'resigned in protest'. Their company news site says that he resigned after being sanctioned by the EU.[0] It appears heavily implied that he was forced to resign as a result of the sanctions – either directly (I'm not familiar with how EU sanctions work) or in that it made his position untenable.

it was the right platform at the right time to take advantage of the trend of writers from legacy newspapers trying to break out from their newspaper brand and produce indpendent paid newsletters instead. it's very much a case of a product that was made for a market that was asking for exactly that product.

They took great advantage of that trend by directly paying newspaper writers to make it even more popular. The writers brought their existing audiences from whatever platform they were coming from, and wrote a lot about the process of switching to substack.

and then they leveraged the popularity among newspaper writers to sell an image of "make a substack and you too can be a popular and successful writer", which brought in the mass market.
Yes, it's very well-executed.

I took a step back while writing my comment and realised that it must seem kind of like random success to some people. I don't think it is at all. Other startups tried to create "blog platforms" and worked on the product/technology/UI, but the founders of Substack took a look at "what will make good quality writers sign-up" and executed on this.

It shows me that even when an idea looks simple and like it has been done before with no success, if your thinking isn't clouded by what has gone before and you actually have a new perspective and are able to understand the market incentives better than others you have a chance to do much better.

Your first mistake is thinking it's about downloading movies and games. That's ONLY a small part.

It's about being able to copy and backup your own content.

It's about owning your hardware you buy, be it a phone, a computer, IoT hardware, your car, industrial equipment, and more.

It's about reverse engineering stuff you own without fear of some "copyright" taking away personal ownership of the thing.

It's about being able to freely talk about and fully explain the procedures to reverse engineer "technological preventions", especially on hardware you own.

But sure, gravitate to just downloading movies. Great way to distract from the terribleness of the DMCA and how it erodes physical ownership.
This comment only points out MPL or LGPL licensed code. tcclib contains a COPYING file that affirms all code distributed as part of tcclib is available under the LGPL. LuaSyntax.pas and SynHighlighterAA.pas are available under the MPL.

The only actually GPL-licensed file in that list, obsolete_ntifs.h, doesn't exist in the repo. If you can find a version of CheatEngine that includes that file, presumably that would be a GPL violation, but that would have to rely on an analysis of how integrated the DBKKernel component is with the rest of the CheatEngine system.
The point was not the zero kills, the point is that the US navy decided to use them in only two occasions.

In the case of the US involved conflicts it was working with allies and fighters lacking modern IFF that made the likelihood of friendly fire or collateral losses unacceptable to them.

It's a matter of acceptable risks. The AIM-54 was designed with a world war III in mind, employed in the middle of the ocean in closed airspaces were unidentified contacts could be treated as hostile with minimum political consequences.

The point I was making is here is an example of a time a major force decided not to use their prime BVR missile because of target identification concerns.

The key here is who is defining misinformation. As the COVID lab leak and Hunter Biden laptop story show there has been a tendency to loudly dismiss or condemn any dissenting opinions of those that don't align with the mainstream narrative as "misinformation". Only to subsequently find out later that these were not as far fetched or misinformed as previously believed.

One thing I infer is that the college educated are overconfident, sometimes classist. In aggregate they rely on short-cut heuristics like anyone else, with the benefit of believing they are more rational by virtue of class clout (their own, and of pundits they listen to). I've also seen the disdain for the tradesmen and non-educated, not just general misanthropy as alluded to in the article. It's a bit unnerving to see them tip-toe around their in-group society, while being absolutely vicious espousing white-listed thoughts.

Even if someone did, I'd be super curious as to the actual return. The highest priced card sold at auction for a "you could just find it in a random pack of Pokemon cards" I could find was around $20k; all the higher priced ones were either due to printing errors (so -extremely- limited runs that you were unlikely to actually get ahold of just buying cards), or were special runs for special events (so also not something you could just buy).

Given that, the decades now that Pokemon cards have been sold, the implications buy in would have (i.e., if you went all in on Pokemon cards as soon as they hit the market, you presumably are going all in on every big IP CCG as a potential investment path, or just as liable to pick losers as winners. Those Star Trek CCG cards haven't exactly held their worth), I'm pretty sure you're not coming out ahead even if you did.

I don't think the pocketbooks of REIT owners justify keeping the status quo housing market. Commercial and industrial REITs can do fine with 10 properties. Residential REITs perhaps shouldn't exist, as residences typically aren't directly economically productive.

Business and investment models can adjust; management companies would fill the investment gap for REITs. So rather than direct ownership, shareholders can instead invest in publicly traded property management firms -- arguably what a REIT should do anyhow.

With fewer units, landlords have more incentive to keep properties in working order to keep up liquidity should they choose to sell. This helps offset the tax incentive to let properties go to ruin.

I don't follow your assertion that increasing taxes on larger ownerships would result in rich people buying the biggest property they could possibly afford. People do that anyway?

Jack Stratton, founder of one of my favorite bands, Vulfpeck did exactly this. He kept the band completely independent and label-free all the way to their 2019 show where they packed out Madison Square Garden. Pretty impressive! That said, I don't know if most artists have the time/know-how to do all the work required for that.

Only tangentially related, but he's done some clever stunts in the band's history, such as releasing an album called "Sleepify" which was 10 completely silent tracks, and told fans to run the album on loop all night when they sleep to game the Spotify system, and the money made from that was used to put on a free tour.
