It would encourage competition by allowing other actors to create alternative solutions and get money from it.

Competition can be good for consumer if new format technically superiors can emerge. Might be harder if this market is locked by huge companies that don't want to pay and push an inferior but artificially free solution.

That's an argument, not my opinion, I don't know what to think about this issue.
What is the justification for this subsidy?
If this happened to let’s say Barack Obama or some other ex-president/ex-prime minister, I think it would be on here. This is not “most stories”.

> But yes kids are hard, I would love to see comparison of 19th century 10-kid family and now... I feel like we are doing something wrong to have raising kids well so hard, but maybe its just that circumstances and expectations have changed completely

Families with 10 kids basically abandon most of them, after the first 1-2 and probably except for the last 1-2. Bigger kids take care of smaller ones, they become surrogate teenage parents.

Humans are quite smart and so kids manage to survive, but it doesn't mean being a kid in such a family is a good life comparatively to being a kid today, in your regular family with 1-2-3 kids.
Can't speak for other countries, but the actual reason why smaller towns have more of their historic heritage intact in Germany is that the larger/more important ones were sadly bombed to bits during WW2. Of course, after the war, the open spaces created by bombardment were used to enable "car-friendly" cities, but that was a secondary effect...
This is about looking at nature on a screen.
Well that's something I've heard too - if you are calling about a break in, make sure to mention that you think you saw them carrying a gun/knife. Then they will actually send someone within 5 minutes. Otherwise? They will be gone long before anyone turns up.

And no, I'm not talking about purely hypothetical situation here - my sister was alone at home when two drunk guys were trying to break in, throwing rocks and bricks at the windows, shouting that they are going to come in and get her, she locked herself in her room and rang the police.........they arrived 45 minutes later. If one of the guys didn't cut himself badly on the glass and decided to give up(and the other one bailed then), it could have ended extremely badly, but an active break-in is apparently not enough to send the nearest PC to the scene right now.
The first thing that pops into my mind is "Abenomics":

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abenomics

> IMF affirmed that Japan's nominal GDP contracted by $1.8 trillion during 2012–2015 while real GDP contracted at an annual rate of 6.8 percent[58] in the second quarter of 2014, after the Consumption Tax hike came into effect in April. This fall is the worst since the devastating earthquake and tsunami disaster[59][60] hit Japan in the first quarter of 2011 when the GDP shrank by an annualised 6.9 percent.

So, his economic policy might have been as bad as an earthquake + tsunami.

That said, he was not the only one supporting this policy, and nobody deserves to die for a mistake.
He was still a powerful figure in .JP politics and was speaking at a campaign event when he was shot. He served something like 6 consecutive terms and only left office for health reasons, but he was still trying to push agendas through.

Other than that, who knows. I'm sure that various US politicians like Nixon and Reagan still have enemies even though they are both long since in the ground.
Many assassinations of political figures are done by radicalized and unstable lone wolves.

I don't see any grounds to expect this one to be unique, even though the possibility can't be excluded.

His gov. was investigated for cooking the books on GDP, but even leaving that aside growth has been mostly flat [0] under his helm, while only stopping the previously rising wealth inequalities [1]

So yes, he basically froze who would be the winners and losers for the span of his policy, and low income people didn't feel great about it.

I have my gripes yet still think he was a more decent PM than many previous ones. It's really sad it comes down to an assassination in the end.

This is really not that rare in Europe. There are many hundreds of historical cities with large sections built before cars. Pedestrianized zones are popular and even where cars are present, there's a much better balance between pedestrians and cars. Overtourism is also a very localized phenomenon. The vast majority of people never wander beyond a single square or a single high street, as is mentioned by the author when they say they go one street back.

The lesson is that if you go to a globally famous city during a famous festival, and stand in a famous square, you may find quite a lot of other people with you.
Seems a little petty, just because someone's making something you are using for free, doesn't mean you should get to decide on it's direction
Windows modifies UEFI settings on runtime. There is an API for that. Even setting password for BIOS/UEFI won’t prevent that as machine has been booted already.

You are saying you're afraid but I think if you look at the decisions the Tory government has made and the policies they've enacted then I don't think you are being very logical.

The conservative government has seen:

* Wide spread fraud (£££ contracts for friends of ministers + covid loan fraud)

* Wide spread law breaking (covid lockdown laws)
* MPs being charged with sexual offences ranging from assault to rape

* Brexit policies, negotiations, and treaties that are chaotic and highly damaging to the economy

* Inefficient social welfare programs that leave disabled people starving to death

If you pay tax in the UK then I don't honestly see how you could be worried about a change in government. The conservatives are only capable of 'governing' by giving large amounts of tax payers money to private companies that extract a large amount of profit while delivering the minimum possible for the money.

There has been some movement to improve on this, but it's a bit of work getting a signing enclave setup so we can sign binaries.

My Acer laptop has something similar, I tried to dual boot windows (preinstalled) and debian, debian couldnt see the hard drive no matter what I did. I'm assuming somehow Acer made it so the drive is only visable to windows
I did the same thing with an alice bot on IRC. It also joined channels and only responded to private messages. It was remarkable how long some people persisted in talking to it when they thought it was a potential mating partner.
Gnome devs pretend Qt doesn't exist, so for them this is not a problem, as you should only be using Gnome/GTK apps according to them (aka "you're holding it wrong")

KDE is much better at displaying GTK apps than Gnome is at Qt apps.

> he was not the only one supporting this policy, and nobody deserves to die for a mistake.

I can remember foreign owned private media (The Sun) trying to frame a football match as an extension of World War II. I also remember when that same foreign owned newspaper boasted about manipulating the results of our elections.

I mention "foreign owned" twice because I don't think those that don't have a stake in our country should have so much influence on how it is run and definitely shouldn't be trying to stir up non-existent trouble with our allies.

Personally I'm OK with a public service broadcaster that's charged with being politically neutral.
So they steal different certificate from the same subject instead? (Both CAs are Microsoft's, and only Microsoft is signing).

The default for years was to boot from external storage, when the internal is not bootable. To change it, you would have to change boot priorities or manually use the built-in boot selector.

> but doesn't prevent any premeditated ones

Not all premeditated attackers are equal in motivation and ability. Make the obstacle high enough, some people will still make it over, others will either lack the motivation to scale it or the ability to do so. Lower the obstacle, and suddenly that later group gets over it too.

"Premeditation" just means the attacker intended to do the act before-hand. The degree of preparation involved varies widely. Some premeditated attacks are the fruit of weeks, months, even years of preparation. Other premeditated attacks are triggered by a recent stressor, sometimes only days old. Gun control can make a big difference to the odds of the later kind of premeditated attack, but makes little difference to the odds of the former kind.

Oh don’t start it! Youtube player ui alone is so broken as if they consulted a donkey to create it.

Timeline may receive a focus (blue outline) so that when you later press up/down to adjust volume, it instead jumps 5 seconds away.

You cannot click on 0:00, because it’s inaccessible for some reason. But you can do that by accidentally pressing numpad 0 instead of or together with a right arrow.

If you are seeking a frame by thumbnail and move away the slightest, thumbnails disappear. Or they never load, but youtube shows you any previous frame instead of a black box, even if it is 50 minutes away.

If you miss your cursor on a tiny volume bar, it scrolls to description. Arguable but annoying.

They can’t figure out how to hide a cursor after a while, so you have to move it to the right and ignore 1x10 bar on your screen.

And instead of showing a map of options in the settings button, it presents a stupid hierarchical menu, so you have to pause video every time to figure out what you need to click on.

I could go on with entire ui, but chances that this will be fixed is zero, because some manager once “proved” something about it all likely.

Visited Venice last year late November. During the day, the most enjoyable parts for me were walking a bit further away toward the northern sections (Cannaregio) which are away from the main shopping centers and thus crowds. Then during the late night/early morning I would walk with my wife and explore the city a bit more once the crowds died down and the city felt quiet (after 11pm). That was romantic. I’d parrot with others that it’s amazing not having to worry about cars.

We did Rome, Florence, Tivoli, Siena and Venice. All beautiful cities coupled with amazing food. Florence felt like I was walking through a painting at times; I loved them all.
I don’t know how you’re reading these sentences and taking the opposite message away!

> This thread is about engineers looking for a simple way to just create a UI

The recommendation doesn't go against this. To create a UI, you'll have to host at least one HTML file. Potentially several, also images, stylesheets, javascripts, etc. One more to ditch the CDN doesn't add work to the process. Deploying one or two files isn't much of a difference.

Yes that i assume, correct. Otherwise i would not call it "maintaining", is a amateur maintaining your car? Your software? If you have just amateur's handling your hardware it's probably better to pay a cloud-provider or pay a integrator todo that.

That's ridiculous - everyone makes decisions under incomplete information - does that mean we can't be blamed for anything ?

I see it as quite feasible that an attacker could insert a fob or organise for a fob to be inserted without also having opportunity to reboot the computer.

That fob could then compromise the system when the computer was rebooted. The Lenovo bios setting being discussed would prevent that.

BTW Can you clarify if you think the feature from Lenovo is a good or a bad thing given your claim that it's very easy to disable?
I wouldn't read too much into this - this sentiment is quite frequent here by some more vocal members, and HN is very far from being representative of general population (which is very good in this regard, since mankind would be over in 2-3 generations).

I have personally a very different opinion - smart handy balanced successful (in life, pursuit of happiness, usefulness to society) people should have more kids/kids more frequently as they do, of course if they are able to do so physically, emotionally and overall mentally. Why - this world desperately needs more of such people, and instead gets explosion of poor uneducated farmers or basic factory workers.

Quiet average (or under-average) majority never changes much, they listen to what they should think, what is right, cool etc. Decision processes based mostly on emotions, which is always flawed long-term (and mass media abuse this to no end). We as mankind are clearly heading to self-destruction if we continue this trajectory long enough (longer than doomsayers preach but not absurdly long).

Also majority of childless older folks I've met are in one of these categories: 1) physically impossible, didn't want to go through adoption bureaucratic hell; 2) would be OK with kids but didn't meet the right partner during say age 20-45; 3) didn't want them earlier and when decision changed they realized it was too late (I know quite a few guys in this bracket too). Those that made this decision consciously at early age and stand by it till death without regrets are really small minority.

Even those fearing overpopulation are helping shrink it a bit if they have 2 kids max (equilibrium is somewhere around 2.1 IIRC). There are other points but I don't want to end up with article on this topic. Suffice to say, in my view, life is a (short) game that shouldn't be played on easy difficulty (=no kids) to get most out of it.

If that makes me some arrogant a-hole for stating that, because I ruffled some underlying feathers of somebody online is of no concern to me. Being people-pleaser is a shitty life from all possible angles.

Good point. Still, I'd argue that changing a nationwide taxation system based on incomplete information is reckless (depending on incompleteness).

I think you are misrepresenting a bit.

Would you have a source that people in Poland got jailed for "insulting" the church or politician? Or peaceful protest? Prosecutions I know are for something else; spraying on centuries old statues, throwing stones and so on.

"Thought crime" in UK is not criminal offense, so there are no criminal charges. You get knock on door, invitation to police station and a fine. "Hate crime" is another level. Some guy did stunt with pig fat. He died in prison, authorities put him into maximum security prison with radical islamists. "Insulting religion" in UK is serious offense punishable by death!
> However - for all of this nonsense, I feel like some people(your post included) have an exaggerated sense of how bad it really is here.

It literally hasn't been a century since the Europeans went full Nazi. We have no idea where the world will be in 25 years, but we do know there are a lot of plausible scenarios where this technology will get people killed.

The government keeping detailed records of who went where, when should be completely banned, totally off the table. This is just laying the groundwork for the next time the fickle voting public decides to try authoritarianism again.

It was part of a mirror of identical SSDs on an LSI MegaRAID RAID card. We see occasional "spectacular" drive failures that take the machine down with a single disk failure.

At the very least the Lego just cuts you, but the plug feels as if it destroys some of your nerve endings.

The boot variables won't point at the device, and so the firmware will never bother to scan the device. The bios setting therefore provides no additional security in this scenario.
