Is attacking libs from the left a good long term political strategy for the right?

In electoral politics I believe some Republican research suggested they could get a higher vote differential by discouraging people from voting for Obama by portraying him as too corporate and centrist than by attacking him for being too communist or whatever.

Which makes sense when voting is not fully representative and can be gamed with single issues.

But it feels like a strategic error in the wider court of public opinion.

Yes there might be a small hardcore that truly think renewables are bad for the planet or libs are bad for equality, but surely those ideas of equality and environmentalism, which are already out there and winning are only going to be made stronger?

There are undoubtedly lots of reasons, but I bet one of them is that air conditioning is much more common and uses a lot of electricity. The US extends much further south than Europe (the states along the US's southern border are at the same latitude as northern Africa) and large sections of the US have hotter summertime temperatures than pretty much anywhere in Europe.
It's the issuers company or product name. GitHub for example prefix their tokens with "gh_" which makes it easy to scan for tokens uploaded to repos or even across the web if they wanted.

GitHub has secret scanning features built in now, with a prefix of your product name or company name you could easily create a regex of sorts to find when someone has uploaded an API key for your application to their GitHub repo and revoke the token or email them.

There's a fix though - pull power back to the local level. These sorts of initiatives crop up when politicians feel too safe or remote from voters (who generally always have other priorities, often the economy or violent crime).

So it's not any real surprise that this stuff is so often emerging at the EU level. The Commission doesn't have to care what voters think - it is in many ways a textbook dictatorship complete with a not-really Parliament - and so they focus on whatever ideas are trendy amongst the eurocrat set. Those people aren't much like the typical European. They're obsessed with certain ideas and ignore others completely. Information control is high up their priority lists, as are any issues that can be exploited to levy giant fines on American companies. They especially love those because the money goes straight into EU coffers the moment the decision is made by the Commissioners, without having to actually win any court cases and so it can be used to enhance their own power without having to get member states to agree to budget increases. Hence why there's a constant flood of internet related laws despite public dis-interest in the issue:

https://europa.eu/eurobarometer/surveys/detail/2553

"Europeans thought that the most important issues facing the EU at the moment of the survey were the environment and climate change (26%), rising prices, inflation, cost of living (24%) and immigration (22%). 41% of respondents mentioned prices, inflation, cost of living as one of the most important issues facing their country, before health (32%) and the economic situation (19%)."

Other than the recent climb in the rankings for climate change, the results always look like that. People care about the basics - their personal wealth, health and who's in their local community.

100% agreed, and this is a royal problem with USB-C.

1. Pre-USB: Several different cords, with different shape ports to distinguish them.

2. USB-A: Several identical cords, with identical ports that function the same.

3. USB-C: Several different cords, with visually identical ports and no clear way to distinguish them.

It's like the designers of USB-C saw the success of USB-A and thought it was due to minimizing the number of shapes, rather than minimizing the number of factors to be tracked. When devices come with pleas to only use the provided charger and cord, rather than any cord that meets the standard, you know that something has gone horribly wrong.

and this is why cryptocurrencies as marketed today are a scam.

Sure, Twitter will “accept” Dogecoin. But the only reason people have Dogecoin is because they expect its value to rise, and rise dramatically.

So why would anyone pay for whatever they’re paying in Dogecoin, when they expect the value of Dogecoin to increase in the future?

So, for example, if I’m trying to make a transaction for $10. And let’s say the dollar loses 10% value due to inflation in a year, while Dogecoin increases by 20% in a year. If I pay for the transaction in USD, a year later in 2023, that $10 USD would be worth $9 in 2022 USD.

If I pay for it in Dogecoin, however, the $10 worth of Dogecoin would a year later have been worth about $10.80 in 2022 USD.

If you think the value of crypto is going up then it makes absolutely no sense to use crypto for transactions.

> 2.5x is completely ridiculous to expect - that’s going to be far below rental payments in most places that anybody would want to live. Its definitely not the norm. It’s obtainable in some areas of the northeast like Pittsburgh and the Midwest. But usually the catch is property taxes are outrageous.

The funny thing is: you just explained why property taxes are basically 'free'. (They are basically the best tax. Tweaking them to include only the value of the land, and not the house makes them even better.)

Basically, supply and demand in the housing market determine the sum of property taxes plus mortgage payments. If property taxes fall, real estate prices increase until the sum is the same as before.

If property taxes increase, real estate prices decrease accordingly.

Of course, existing property owners will feel the changes in price. But for someone young or from outside the area, who doesn't already own property, areas with high and low property taxes cost the same amount to live in.

The area with high property taxes can either spend more on public infrastructure or lower other taxes.

In the long run, all of society is made up of people who don't live yet today.

In the short run, votes are mostly cast by people alive now, many of them owning property.

Yes but so what? EU regulation is always like this, it contradicts itself and is impossible to interpret. Governments must be able to access encryption (unstated but obvious: without the target knowing they're being spied on), but the solution must also protect personal data and be "transparent".

"Which means that the right to put something that clones the authentication session on a targeted device would do the job, no need to ban maths."

You don't actually know that, you're just hoping that it means something like that. In reality, they will keep the rules vague and then attach massive fines to non-compliance so they get to do the following trick: make everyone involved in implementation super scared so they use a maximalist interpretation, then when people complain to the Commission they say "no we didn't intend that, our rules are actually super reasonable, go complain to the companies". Or one day the ECJ will 'discover' an interpretation that nobody knew about and everyone suddenly has to change the way they do things overnight, then the usual EU water carriers will post here on HN claiming everyone should always have known it from the start.

Same thing that was seen with GDPR, EU competition law and other cases. It's become a standard trick. Good law doesn't have this problem; the meanings and consequences are always clear.

Notice that all algorithmic stable coins essentially work the same way - the coin is issued against another coin acting as collateral. A fall in the value of the collateral will cause forced selling to buy back the stable coin.

They do also work the other way; pumping the value of the collateral as the stable coin can be used to bid up the collateral.

Creating an inherently unstable system that don't really need a conspiracy theory to explain why it will eventually collapse.
Depending on your data, experimentally, some people find zstd --fast can beat LZ4 for them on compression, some people find the opposite; my usual advice to people considering one or the other is to experiment and find out.

(An interesting anecdote about the differing notions of compressibility - when I recently wrote something to do a clever dance to avoid burning a great deal of CPU on incompressible data with higher zstd levels, I ended up using LZ4 -> zstd-1 as a two-tier filter to catch incompressible data, because what they each thought was incompressible was different enough that only using LZ4 lost a significant amount of compression sometimes, but only using zstd-1 was comparatively expensive and also lost a significant fraction.)

I kinda disagree. You are responsible for the first, while the provider is responsible for the second.

For instance when we pay for gitlab or Adobe CS, if it's down it's on us to workaround or plan for the situation and deliver the final product to our clients according to plan.

Cloud front is also pretty expensive bandwidth wise. CDNs has a pretty wide range of quality, features and pricing.

I would put Cloudflare in the lower tier of quality but they do have a lot of features. If the OP only cares about raw bandwidth pricing, then they could probably find a CDN with no features except file serving and reporting for about $1500.

They’d have to compromise a little on Time to first byte but there’s a lot of applications where that matters less like video serving.
Thanks. The drawback of it is that you can't have a laptop to that occasional travel/meeting. I think between "movable small desktop" and "massive tower desktop and tiny laptop to remote into the desktop" the latter actually wins, since you then have a laptop you can bring to a meeting too.
I recently worked on a payment integration which was effectively the entitlement layer as well, and I knew it was bad design at the time but hadn’t worked out a solution. It was a situation where we needed to move quickly and if it mattered later we could totally overhaul all of it, but it really rubbed me the wrong way knowing that it definitely wasn’t a good solution.

This covers everything I was unsure about, plus a lot I hadn’t considered. Thanks very much – this will save a lot of pain the next time I work on something similar.
> I don't understand this opinion.

Ok, let me spell it out: you're not special. Nothing about your profession makes you special, you are not somehow better than anyone because you can sit at a computer and write code.

It's a skill, a very highly compensated one for now but an incredibly narrow one that happens to be useful a select few corps, sure, but so was were many other things.

And if one thing that COVID has taught us is how incredibly unnecessary you are to maintaining civilization--unless you are some supply chain developer in which case you were doomed either way. No one was calling for the return for programmers like they were for even barbers or cooks, in fact people lauded the fact that FB went down.

In short, you like being told you're special, it makes you feel good. But you are not. Wide spread misery isn't about equality, I can assure this isn't what I'm advocating here, it's about a self-awareness issue.

> A woman is, quite simply, an adult human female.

So an adult human female (XX phenotype) who is taking masculinizing hormones and thus has a beard, body hair, a heavy voice, and perhaps has had his breasts surgically removed, or even had penile reconstruction surgery, is, in your opinion, a woman?

If he is not naked and you do not have a genotypic test result, how would would you know? Do you think a woman seeing him in a women's locker or in a women's bathroom would feel comfortable? Or would she feel more comfortable with a male that has a female body and clothing presentation (say, Caitlyn Jenner)?

Also, your definitions of course leave no room for people with various biological conditions that leave them with an uncertain biological sex - hermaphrodytism, XXY genotype, chymerism (multiple genotypes in different tissues), testosterone resistance (natural female phenotype despite a male genotype) etc.
