To give you a contrarian view on what most others are telling, I strongly advise you to go see a representation of it. Theatre is made to be enjoyed live sharing a space with the comedians. It’s a very different experience compared to watching a movie adaptation of it.

Reading would be perfectly fine if you are happy playing theatre director in your head but if you are unfamiliar with plays I advise you to go and see some before to get a sense of the space. It helps. Reading play is quite enjoyable because they are so short compared to a novel.
I mean technically all the violence in any video game comes down to pushing a button labeled "fight" when you remove several layers of complexity and abstraction. That's why violence in games isn't such a big deal. Point being, if someone specifically asks for a 'non-violent' game, I wouldn't recommend a game where the abstraction is explicitly attacking and killing characters.

The loophole I've successfully used in the past in Austria was to incorporate a Ltd in the UK and operate it in Austria (similarly to how, in the U.S. The free movement provision, which is one of the central pilhars of the E.U., extends to free movement of legal persons, and does not end with free movement of natural persons.

Probably not. The ones creating the docs probably have a deep understanding of the language and can no longer see what information people need to understand the issue at hand.

That's a great point, I doubt there can be one single modeling solution for all systems. I imagine a modern tool would be more like a suite with many options for common use cases. And it would be essential to be able to narrow down on specific subsystems maybe using something like a gitignore file
CASE Tools with round-trip engineering need to make a comeback.

To answer your question, people do use various tools to extract Class Hierarchies, Call Graphs, Cross-Reference listing etc. The other HN thread that you have linked to contains some details. Lots of people do use them. You can easily add Doxygen/CFlow etc. to your make files to generate the diagrams during every build. The key thing for usage is that do not try to comprehend the entire system as a whole (all but impossible for large systems) but localize your study to a module at a time. Once you have the different pieces mapped out, you can combine them by hand.

I've started a UG in Germany. It is one of the worst professional experiences I've ever had.

It's extremely cumbersome, bureaucracy heavy, slow and expensive. In addition I've never encountered as many scummy companies (GmbH or otherwise) as in Germany. Corporate rules and culture are both complete trash.

For reference I've started companies in Sweden, and I can do the full process online in an afternoon. Probably less than 30 minutes.

If I ever had to have a business for operating in Germany again, I would create an Estonian business. There's no reason that you corporate entity has to be German itself.
> I’ve been seriously considering going back to owning a big library of mp3s.

I never left! Every once in a while I go and try Streaming again to see if they have gotten their shit together, and they still haven't. My hand-curated collection of MP3s, hand-ripped by me using the quality settings I like, carefully stored in a directory structure I understand, with filenames that make sense to me, meticulously tagged with the right metadata, gives me everything I need for music listening, and it doesn't require the Internet or a subscription to play. With hard drive sizes today, the cost of storage for a library of every music I would ever want to listen to is a rounding error. I don't care about discovery and engagement and royalty costs and all those metrics streaming companies optimize for.
It is stupidly easy to create a GmbH or UG, especially the UG. Also very cheap, if you push it two days are enough, will cost you around 100 bucks.

And if you just want to run a side business, one that doesn't have the potential to ruin you, just run it as an independent income.

You can even have your employees participate in your GmbH, either in enquity or profit. That most German start-ups don't simply means they want to keep salaries down by paying in potentially worthless enquity.

> Do most users want to be told what to consume?

I like "lean-back listening" and that's the whole reason I'm still sticking with Spotify. They (almost) always have something to accompany my mood both out of songs I already like and new ones I often also like (yay!). The drift in mood is minimal. I can listen to calm piano music for a whole night while Apple music can shift over to loud metal within only a few songs (what a joke).

It may be getting worse, though. Especially a few songs keep playing over and over, sometimes despite me explicitly blocking them. Both a lot of new or familiar songs often show up at times at which I want just the other - and of course you can't choose (what a joke! The algorithm is great, just badly tuned, let me change it!).

>The weird thing afaiac is that lidl is about the least online supermarkets there is, at least here in the uk. No home delivery, no online catalogue ...

In the US they have an online catalog and even in/out of stock indicators for your store. Lidl is now my preferred grocer outside for standard items while I use higher end grocers primary for their meat departments that have better cuts of meat available. Their produce is great although if you need a speciality item you likely won't find it. Their bakery is top notch compared to most US store bakeries.

They've always offered household items but I've noticed this expanding at my local store beyond toiletries and disposables, things like clothes and what not. I can't say I ever considered buying power tools or anything I'd want to keep and use long term there (I tend not to go discount for such items and opt for higher quality). There are places like Home Depot close and accessible enough here in the US that I doubt most would buy such products there. They do offer some plants on the cheap, although I'm not a plant person.
> Kebab costs 2€

This is a very very outdated price, and as far as I remember it was only possible due to some very doggy things going on.

Even a few years back the price was around 3.5€ (in cheaper areas of Germany).

Before COVID the price was more around 4-4.5€.

Now it's 6€.

(Prices based on cheaper areas of Germany).
Let’s step back and look at this a bit objectively - there are various forms of “gameplay” but many involve violence of some sort as that’s one of the easiest to “figure out what to do”. But there are others - off-hand I can think of:

* puzzle solvers (Portal, Phoenix Wright, etc)

* simulations (city builders, etc)

* driving games (racing, boats, etc)

* discovery (often a form of puzzle game, but there are things like the whale petting game - Endless Ocean - Animal Crossing could be one of these)

* RPG (though most involve violence for some it is very stylized, Pokémon could go here)

* Collection (usually an aspect of another game, such as Pokémon or animal crossing - the drive to complete the sets)

* High-level army simulations (Things like Age of Empires, Heroes III et al - games that technically have violence but it’s more like chess, you’re maneuvering armies against other armies. The Heroes storyline was pretty decent and I love the gameplay)

* Sports (Madden, FIFA, many have a career or dynasty mode focusing on a player or team)

So something like a racing RPG with collection aspects might be perfect - though most have a relatively weak “story mode”.
>It is stupidly easy to create a GmbH or UG, especially the UG. Also very cheap, if you push it two days are enough, will cost you around 100 bucks.

What about the required 25k to start a GmbH?
I think that the concept of the GmbH in general is a good thing, although I share some of the complaints from the article, notably that getting it started still requires a lot of physical paperwork instead of digital processes. But requiring a starting capital of 25,000 Euros in exchange for limited liability is a fair deal. It is quite an effective barrier against a lot of scams (of course, it makes them not impossible). And no one hinders you to start a business without limited liability with zero Euros. Arguments that this is a major obstacle for startups therefore do not seem convincing to me. I worked as an IT freelancer for eight years before I founded my GmbH. Even without a GmbH I could include clauses of limited liability into my contracts. And if one could not in principle raise 25,000 Euros for a startup, it propably is not such a good business idea in the first place. Also note that you only have to pay half of the money into the GmbH at the beginning and only have to top up the amount when the first 12,500 Euros have been used up. In addition, you can use the capital to pay your own wages from the beginning, so in practice you can withdraw a considerable amount of money from the GmbH until it is profitable.

It's not naive, it's correct. GNU's focus is on features, kitchen sink style, performance tuning, etc. If that's what you want, it's for you. OpenBSD is focused on correctness. It's not correct to use hacks and buffering in tools to increase performance. That should be handled at the syscall interface or in the kernel or whatever.

> Formal methods will likely not help you - they can only show a _specification_ is sound, but not the _implementation_.

I'm not sure where this idea came from. Are you in hardware? I guess in hardware that makes sense.

Anyways, in software, formal methods can absolutely show that an implementation meets a specification. In fact, that has always been one of their canonical use cases in software systems, at least since the 70s or maybe early 80s.

Formal methods can also be used with very ad hoc specifications, or with very general specifications, or increasingly without any explicitly specification at all (eg by inferring specifications).

If you’re not tailgating someone, you’ll be fine, and anyway “the rest of us drivers” includes plenty of people who drive much more dangerously than an overly cautious AI.

This may be a stupid question, but how is any value above 100% possible?
Terrible article, with so much inaccuracies!

Just two things are extremely counter productive, and I have not dig deep.

1. Fast reactors have very big technical issues, test run is very far from real industrial applications.
This is main reason, why in most countries breeder programs was closed, because value is not worth consequences.

2. 20% enriched Uranium, but why not 99%?
- Current percents of enrichment are not taken from ceiling, but where developed from counter terrorists considerations.

I don't going to say, that it easy to make nuke from 20%, but it is magnitudes more dangerous than typical industrial 5%.
I'm not really arguing that Spotify has the greatest music discover system but if you read about an album, it costs you nothing to try it out. Prior to subscription services and digital music it would be a 10$ investment that you may or may not make.
> The goal of an UG is to have limited liabilities from the start, however you need to convert it into a full GmbH, once you have generated €25.000. It still baffles me, that you need to buy your own shares in Germany, in order to receive the “status” and protection of being a fully incorporated company.

I hope I am not too far off the truth, please correct me if I am: "mbH" in "GmbH" means "mit beschränkter Haftung" = limited liability. In case of insolvency, creditors will only be paid from what the company has and that's where this money comes in. To avoid potentially screwing creditors over right from the beginning, (co)founders have to pay in that amount into the company pockets so that there is some money that could be used to pay creditors in case of insolvency (or half of that =12.5k€ and be personally liable for up to another 12.5k€ in case of insolvency, right?).

Also: Döner for 2€? Really? Good Döners in my city are 5-6€, I can't (and don't want to) imagine what a 2€-Döner must taste like.
> Quoting scientific studies that show the risk of dying as a result of making a
kidney donation to be only 1 in 4,000, he says that not making the donation would have meant he valued his life at 4,000 times that of a stranger, a valuation he finds totally unjustified.

Well that's some real dodgy use of numbers, right there. In "1 in 4000", "1" is the number of people who died as a result of donating a kidney and "4000" are the number of people who didn't, counted over some sample of living kidney donors.

These two numbers, "1" and "4000" have no obvious relation to the value one places on one's life compared to the lives of others. For example, "4000" is not the number of others lives saved by donating one kidney. By donating one kidney one can "save" one other person's life at most (and it's not really "saving" as it is delaying the inevitable).

Equally dodgy is the calculation of "1/3,000 risk of death in surgery is like sacrificing yourself to save 3,000 people" earlier in the article.

Where does this dodgy statistical thinking (like magical thinking, but with statistics) come from I know not, but, anecdotally it's very common in discussions about doing good with numbers and it seems to be designed to shut down debate by claiming "sciense says".

Btw, if I wanted to know how much I value my life over that of a stranger all I'd have to do is ask myself: how many people would I sacrifice to save my life? I am guessing that for the majority of people on the planet the answer is "0". Simple question, simple answer, and no dodgy "maths".
Just in case you're wondering: The title is a play on the Roman Catholic doctrine, the Immaculate Conception. The Immaculate Conception is not be be confused with the Virgin Birth of Christ, which all Christians hold to. The Immaculate Conception doctrine asserts that Mary the mother of Jesus was born without sin.

Right but you phrase it like some horrible thing when it's a net positive for the investors, the business owners/folders, and the broader economy. Just because "the rich get richer" doesn't mean it's inherently bad and that others don't also get richer. It's not a 0 sum game.
> We can inject targeted taps continuously with a standard deviation of as low as 14.6 x 19.2 pixels from the target area, a delay of less than 0.5s and a distance of up to 40mm

Seems like 40mm isn't a very far distance. I understand that this is a PoC, but it seems like making this work from a distance is more "important" than having a low delay or super accurate precision.

This is silly. Every system has a current noise floor based on whatever the thermodynamics of the system are. If you can push the artifacts of your output below that then they will be indistinguishable from the noise. That’s the point.

> Example: early Beatles songs have vocals hard-panned to one side, which sounds terrible on headphones. It sounds way better on the original mono version.

Somewhat agreed, although I suspect that may be more of an Apple/Beatles decision as to what versions to make available. Having 3-4 versions of each song may create more confusion for people. But... it's a shame that many of those versions aren't available (original mono, original stereo, remastered mono, remastered stereo, etc). I do see that Apple Music has some more options (US box set, for example), but even then, those are the US stereo/mono, and the UK mono/stereo mixes are, in some/many cases, different.

I don't disagree with your remarks about startups and big "software" companies, or rather the lack thereof in the EU.

However, that's not even what Schwarz is targeting here. They are targeting the IT departments of existing companies that aren't necessarily in the tech space at all. I know of a bunch of companies who'd love to move a lot of their stuff into a managed cloud, but wouldn't touch a US-owned cloud for compliance reasons. They stay aware from Telekom, because... well... Telekom. They stay away from Hetzner because Hetzner is not considered "serious" enough for now. So they often end up running their own infra or at most do unmanaged colo.

The GDPR I do like, and are a bit prideful that the EU made it happen.

But it isn't about pride here so much anyway, as it is about political and regulatory realities.

Schwarz has to convince their potential customers that they are "serious" (and Schwarz is considered pretty serious in the business space), that they can execute on promises (and Schwarz again has a reputation for that too, though in the retail space) and that they can offer a cloud that is compliant with regulations, even if at first it's not much more than some managed vms/colos.
They are likely limitations for privacy/security reasons.
