In my experience, nothing Homepod and Siri related “just works”. I do not even bother to ask it what date it is anymore.
Speaking of paying taxes, that's much harder than it needs to be too. I did my corporate Swedish taxes between sets at the gym (no exaggeration).

Would reply below, but reached thread max depth.

That tax advisor I got was really scummy and way over charged in addition to being an ongoing headache to deal with.
I’ll post my playlist and you tell me how much of it you’ve heard on the radio.

Sure, maybe you won’t find that one band from the 90s you loved that played a few shows and only ever recorded anything on tapes that have been obscured over time.

But one of the reasons I use streaming over the radio is because streaming libraries offer 1000x times the diversity of any radio station or chart.
Hi from Argentina! At least here real state is a good option, but to buy a small single room "studio" apartment, I need to save one or two years of the total income of my family. Where do I save that meanwhile? With a high inflation $100 today are like $30 in two years. And that's assuming I save every single cent. If I spare some money for food and the electricity bill, buying an apartment takes much more time.

If you have plenty of money you can buy a big apartment, or a whole hotel or something.

The problem is how to save a small amount of money for a year. For example save each month to buy next year a new fridge or a notebook.
I mean... germany also spent decades to kill of it's nuclear energy production. So it's not the only thing our (EU) politicians fucked up but will never take the blame for.
I feel the same way about books: In terms of enjoyability and chance discovery, browsing through amazon.com or whatever just doesn't compare with browsing the shelves of an actual book store or library.
Not a bad rule of thumb, especially if the company is spending money on long-term brand marketing that's investor capital (or otherwise borrowed) and not from operating cash flows.
That’s not correct. Creating a UG will set you back hundreds of EUR for notary fees, commerce registry entries etc. And you have to prepare your annual accounts, which, if you let a professional handle it, will easily cost you hundreds more
Maybe that's why shorter men have a stereotype of insecurity. Napolean complex. They are not really less secure, their head is tilted up more often.
This game was an amazing experience and I can’t recommend it highly enough.
> vintage CD players

Now I feel old. I remember the first time I saw and heard a Compact Disc. It was a rainbow colored object straight from the future. It was magical, the whole family gathered around the little boom box like thing playing some classical music CD.

Also, I hope your boss doesn't actually listen to any CD player built before about the mid 00's or so. Maybe mid-90s if you're talking mega-bucks (at the time) like a Mark Levinson or Theta Digital. But advances in DACs in the last ~20 years made everything prior very obsolete. Nowadays you can get commodity chips in the single digit dollar range that are for all intents and purposes faultless.
I couldn't agree more. The whole situation is extremely complicated, especially if founders from multiple countries become involved.

If you had to do it again, how would you incorporate in the future (basically what I am trying to figure out here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31620700)?
It seems like public subsidies for stadiums doesn't add as much economic activity as similar investments.

That site says I'm at 6%, and I agree 95%+ is accurate. Some particularly obscure stuff is only on YouTube or Bandcamp, that's maybe 3%, another 1-2% is simply unavailable due to various licensing issues, generally odd albums for artists that have most of their content available. If you go way, way down the long tail of 400-youtube-view music from decades ago, most of it won't be available anywhere except YouTube and pirate sites, both with spotty coverage.
This is correct, and I’m not sure why more people don’t realize this. You can run right down the list: Venezuela, Weimar Germany, etc etc and the rule always holds- hyper inflation is caused by printing money in your own currency to pay debts that are denominated in a foreign currency.
Sure - and grandpa lived to be a hundred despite smoking a pack a day. Does that make cigarettes healthy?
It’s created in the US from corn. This policy was made to benefit corn producers. You are correct but your point isn’t relevant.
Nooooooo!

First thing I do on every Ubuntu install is change the default editor to vim. Used to use the Gnome editor a lot, but since the introduction of vscode I rarely fire it up. The old editor (which is still shipping with LTS) is probably the best of the Gnome apps. The devs' effort to replace it is deeply disappointing, but they've made it abundantly clear they don't care what any of us think.
Is a space-before-exclamation-point a Frenchism?
If you want to look at it from an academic perspective it tells the compiler that it should be a relevant[1] type. The idea is that you can make the compiler force the use of the value at least once. This is great for error or result types so that you can require the caller of your code actually check for an error or valid result, this way you can't forget to do it (if you do it's a compile error and you never get to run the code).

Don't blame SEO because capitalism necessitated that businesses use whatever means possible to get their product in front of your face.
Couldn't Austria come after you and say you're running an Austrian company, given you're an Austrian business with no ties to the UK? I'd recommend talking to an accountant.

In Italy or Spain this wouldn't fly 100%, it would even be a criminal charge (foreign dressed companies).
yeah but the 2022 article was written in 2010. It just has a "Last Updated: 2022" because Google is dumb and falls for that every time.
Staples is a great example to study. Also Sports Authority, PSINet, Enron -- there are many fascinating case studies. The article would be way too long if I included all of them though. However, the upcoming Market Intelligence newsletter issue I mention at the end of the article will go into more detail on certain examples via the lens of a checklist that anyone running, advising, or investing in a company can use to vet a particular naming rights deal.

>"Europe foolishly integrated with the Russian energy economy in the 80s"

Europe and the US also "foolishly" integrated with China and whole lot of other countries who are not exactly shining beacons of freedom. Either crawl to your own hole and do not deal with anyone or admit that there is a world around us and it sometimes does not conform.

Besides Europe did not become rich just by being nice. It and UK in particular had raped the rest of the world in the process. It does not seem to mind "mass murder" either when it is done by "right" countries to a "bad" ones.
Mussels are a reasonable alternative to steamed clams and I've had those on a number of occasions in London. Not sure how available they are more broadly.
Also French, did the same thing (albeit in the Alps rather than the south :) after being very burned out living in a tiny San Francisco apartment during Covid, post LTR breakup.

Huge boost for my mental health - I can go for beautiful walks anytime I want, the local village has a huge sense of community, I've been spending more time with my family (which I'd neglected while building my career abroad over the last 15 years), the food is so tasty and all local, I'm very close (~30 min drive) to mid sized cities, and my cost of living necessities is not even 1k euro a month...

The one downside is that dating is pretty close to impossible. Pretty much anyone over the age of 25 has kids, and it's not in tiny mountain villages that you'll find people who are into the same kind of nerdy multicultural things that you are. (the postwoman is pretty cute but huh that seems like a bad idea). I've been back in the bay area for work since, but turns out "I spend most of my time on a farm in rural Europe" is a turnoff for city people, YMMV.

So definitely do it after you're partnered, if that matters to you.
FaceTime is the reason my whole extended family moved to Apple. There was no comparably reliable and easy to use video call app 10+ years ago.
> But let's be clear, the fact that Italy - my country - has been fragmented more than it was unified doesn't justify the argument that Italians haven't existed for more than 2 thousand years.

Totally agree with that.

My focus is on the earlier part of your comment. People from the West see China, a single color, India, a single color, Vietnam, a single color- and think all the thoughts of the people (not even on a micro scale), all the philosophies and ways of life, are similar.

That is very very far from the truth.
But as I said... it's not "tired and old", if we reported on it, and now we act as if we never did. We (well, our media is) basically lying now.

Of course russia doesn't get a free pass... but why do we get one? Why can my small shitty eu country (slovenia) get to have soldiers occupying foreign countries without sanctions? Why can americans do it without sanctions? The French? ...? Why do we treat russia differently for doing the same thing we are... and why are we hurting ourselves by those sanctions?
The GitHub repo visualizer was especially useful for me https://githubnext.com/projects/repo-visualization
Can’t tell if this is a joke
Or skip the "digital" shit and do it the proper way. If you get VC money we talk millions just do it professionally. If it's not VC money chancesvare you won't need any of it. And if you di, kudos, your business is viable enough to go international. Which brings us back to point one, do it professionally.
It's different because Russia could invade Eastern Europe tomorrow. Of course you might not care, but I live there. The only nazis are the invaders.
> The author is attempting to use linguistic pedantry to delegitimize an ethnicity he doesn't like for contemporary ideological reasons.

The point of the author is that casting all norsemen as vikings is factually wrong, and that further wrong is done by the use of this historic falsehood as a basis for political movements.

At the same point in time, a large part of Europe was under the control of the frankish empire. Despite that, we don't describe people from this area as bloodthirsty warriors out for tributes and land conquest. We are able to realize that only a small part of the feudal society took part in these raids, and we have lots of historic material on other aspects of this society. This is what is missing in the history we tell of the nordic society.
If this were true, the yellow pages would be a best-seller instead of something they waste money mailing to you for free.
Does anyone know where I can get this for Ubuntu 18? Sadly Ubuntu 20 crashes with my setup and I’m forced to use version 18. I can’t find it in the Snap store or Software Center. Is it strictly a version 20 app?
These claims are based on what would happen if many people donated kidneys and the statistics held true. If 4,000 people donated kidneys to people who needed them to survive, on average, one person would die and 4,000 lives would be saved.

From an expected value perspective, one person donating a kidney is like 1/4000th of this.

If you base moral decisions on expected value, as effective altruists try to do, this calculus is straightforward.
Do not forget about expatriation tax („Wegzugsbesteuerung“) when sfter a few years move to another countries. The tax is about 350% of your share of the average of last 3 years profits (might be reduced a tad, but will always be extortionate)
> In addition I've never encountered as many scummy companies (GmbH or otherwise) as in Germany. Corporate rules and culture are both complete trash.

That's the quintessential HN comment I'm talking about. Just hasty generalizations and accusations. Tiresome.
I don't understand people who don't want to at least have the option. I mean, if it turns out you don't like living longer you could just opt out?

As far as I can tell, "I don't want to live forever anyway" is just cope.
I think what everybody is missing so far is that they're able to dogfood their own cloud offering through their Lidl and Kaufland subsidiaries the same way Amazon did. That's a huge boon because it means they need to build it to meet real world requirements. It will help them be more competitive, though how much remains to be seen.
See, that's why I never filed taxes in Germany in my live so far. Tax advisories are cheap ebough and so much better at doing it.
Producing ethanol fuel with corn instead of sugarcane is really stupid.
I really don't enjoy that they've started hiding the listen count now so you can no longer tell which songs are the most popular if you're checking out an album.
I think one reason companies have been doing this lately is because a surprisingly large population of computer users are only semi-literate (low education or just children). So if you’re doing UX Research you’ll actually notice this more visual, non-textual UI does “better” in a lot of metrics
The Turkish police typically raid and mass arrest people after some PKK activity happens (or is suspected to happen soon), even if there's no actual bombs going off. They arrive in riot gear to do the raids/arrests.
Its offerings arent as broad as AWS, but Hetzner cloud is frictionless, fast to deploy and very low cost. We use it a lot for compute intensive jobs.
I am asking myself the same question - how would you actually solve this issue? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31620700
They don't even have to work for US companies. As a recent example, the Dirty Pipe vulnerability was discovered by a German Engineer working for a very basic website hoster.

He found it when he was investigating a customer complaint about corrupted log file downloads.

There is still in-depth high-value engineering happening, even if you don't work for the flashy silicon valley VC unicorns.

In fact, such a basic support request would probably have been closed as "could not reproduce" in a highly competitive environment.
I don’t, but ignoring that; how is this going to reduce the price of gas?
Are you sure? - they still have this in the FAQ section:

"What if we incorporated as a non-US corporation?

If your company is already incorporated somewhere other than the United States, Canada, Singapore or the Cayman Islands, in order to participate in YC you will need to create a parent company that is in one of those jurisdictions. The existing company will then become a subsidiary of the new United States, Canada, Singapore or Cayman parent company. While lawyers will drive this process, it will require a significant effort on your part."

> EU should remove its dependence on Russia

But our politicians are fucking up that too... just look at the german fight against nuclear power, while being happy to buy coal-generated power from poland.

We have a nuclear powerplant in slovenia, and we're talking about expanding it for literally 30 years now, and all the arguments against it are "this will take 10years, that is too long, we need power now". ...well, and austrians protesting against it.
Don’t suggest to delete iTunes because it is the only place to purchase music. Unless that ability is migrated to Music.
>The loophole I've successfully used in the past in Austria was to incorporate a Ltd in the UK and operate it in Austria

Do you have any more details on the benefits of this operation? AFAIk, operating any business in Austria subjects you to Austrian labor and tax laws, negating any advantage.

I was thinking about opening a LTH in a cheap Eastern RU country instead of the UK, and operate it in Austria but that last part seems to throw a wrench in my idea.
I’m paid by the hour and I posted in my personal time. I don’t own stock or have any financial interest in the company. I’m also a satisfied customer.

I’m not sure it’s relevant though; everything I mentioned is factual and backed up with sources. Note that I didn’t advocate anything other than learning that the technology exists, which I think is fair game.
Azure AD Application Proxy fits the bill for Microsoft 365 shops.

Nothing from Atlassian should ever be exposed to the public internet. Atlassian stuff is a security tire-fire with very old dependencies even in the latest releases, a painful reinstall/config merge needed for even minor patches, and no auto-update mechanism.
This assumes that oil consumption is fixed, rather than China and India increasing their usage while Europe stagnates.
I'd say that highly depends on what your product actually is :)
Superliminal seems to belong in that list.
Wow, Go is worse than I thought! Sum types aren’t particularly ergonomic in C++ but at least it has them. And it has operator overloading, and generics, and `const`, and deterministic lifetime. To me complex code can be made way more understandable by using the type system to say “this takes a const ref to a IPv4 or IPv6 IP address and returns a future of either a duration in nanoseconds or an error code”. Just like in mechanical engineering, where the units of an equation tell you a lot, the signature of a function in a language with a rich type system tells you that that’s probably a `ping` function. No wonder I have such a visceral averse reaction to Go.
Can confirm. Sometimes there are full DAYS where there is some error and it will not play music at all… I’m paying for it and it won’t play anything. I’ve submitted big reports multiple times. It’s not good enough.
Under US law, it is illegal to give the government large categories of user data, even if you can legally sell that data on the open market to private parties.

I live in the balkans, I had american planes flying above my house, bombing a country (that we were once a part of a same country) ~400km away, for mostly the same reasons that putin is attacking ukraine now for.
I love how being compliant, taxes, accounting, other regulations seems to be such a hard thing for people looking for millions of VC money while litterally thousands of companies do so every day. I do see a pattern there so, after all ignoring regulations is still a viable business model for SV companies.
I've since been convinced that what I had in mind initially (generating a bunch of static diagrams with each build) is not very useful. Your site comes closer to what I think would be the better solution, an interactive diagram, but at the level of classes/functions and their interactions instead of files/folders. Your project looks great for exploring a Github repository though.
I take it this is Google? They’re notoriously, comically bad at this. I’d ping the initial recruiter too. You have nothing to lose.
I am wondering, too - how would you actually solve this issue if you have founders living in multiple countries, inside and outside the EU (created a new topic here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31620700)

I would guess the ROI from their perspective is legitimization, both of their brand and of crypto in general.

Presumably the have exposure to the crypto market as a whole, I've always guessed big crypto companies doing advertising blitzes are mostly concerned with the market going up and new money entering, if it enters via them that's just a bonus?

This might be cynical, but I suspect its bigger scale version of the ads and spam for random coins, assuming the coin isn't an outright rigged scam, whoever is paying for the ads probably collects marginal fees, the real aim of the ad/spam is to hopefully increase the value of their own holdings.
I don't think the EU is simply trying to signal willingness to experience discomfort. I don't know if you intended it, but your phrasing gives me the impression that you think the they are choosing a specific level of discomfort merely for show.

This seems wrong. 1) Russia cannot be penalized to any great degree with it producing negative consequences. Though I'm open to being wrong in this, and would entertain ideas about alternative sanctions that would penalize Russia equally without being uncomfortable. And 2) The discomfort is a function of EU tying itself too closely to Russia, something about which it was warned repeatedly over the decades even by some of its own members. The discomfort here is not merely necessary to penalize Russia, but also to remedy reliance on a Russian government wielding that clout as a license to act just as it is acting now in the Ukraine.

The EU must be willing to experience discomfort, but they are not doing so right now merely as a hollow signal.

TrailMakers is super fun for all ages. You build vehicles/contraptions and go around collecting new parts. I highly recommend it.
Anecdotally, I've also never encountered as many scummy and cheating companies and GmbHs as in Germany.

Granted it's just another data point but I feel there's real substance behind this Germany bashing and it's not uncalled for.

Also, Germany is the only EU country I've encountered where scummy law companies break citizens privacy hand in hand with ISPs to spy on your internet traffic and send you fines if you torrent anything copyrighted, while at the same time marking huge fuss about how important privacy is in Germany. Ironic.

If you move to Germany make sure to get defense insurance to protect yourself if you ever need to use a lawyer.
What distinction do you mean? Federation allows for interoperable decentralization. Without federation, we would have thousands of chat/mail/social media servers that can't talk to each other. Some may choose not to federate, but most want to federate to create a useful protocol.
I kinda agree with this , I mean, it would be perfectly fine if it wasn’t the elephant part. I played this with my brother and a friend , we are in our 30s, and I though “when I have a kid I’ll play this with them”… and then we got to the elephant part

How many of those far right groups were integrated into national armies, as Azov was?
As a couple others have mentioned, this is a different analysis, but the answer is that generally localities that subsidize stadiums do not see a good ROI. Local residents typically end up paying the bill through e.g. a slightly higher sales tax. Corollary: If you want to pay less local taxes, don't live in a city that has a major league sports team.
