writing open-source doesn’t mean people can’t criticize you. It doesn’t mean the places you publish your software can ask you to do stuff or they’ll un-publish. It doesn’t mean others can’t republish them yourself.

It does mean you can ignore any and all criticism and do whatever you want. It does mean you can refuse to do what the package managers or community want. Even if your product has a glaring bug or security hole or is offensive! And you can put the burden of maintaining or patching your app to others.

And that’s fine, if you do so you’re not a bad person. Because others can maintain and patch your app. You have absolutely no obligation to maintain or address any complaints about your open source software.

But you do have to accept that people will make those demands and complaints. Not outright insults and hate speech, those are too far, but complaints about your software (even if harsh) are fine and expected. If they bother you, IMO the best thing to do is politely ask “please stop” and ignore them.
One of the candidates for the Tory party leadership has already spoken out against it. I get the impression its not that popular and might well be scrapped or dropped.
Agreed, less single family zoning automatically means 30 story skyscrapers. There is no such thing as duplexes or quadplexes. There is also no such thing as townhomes. /s

The comic books are the same. You'd have to buy dozens of them in different series if you wanted a comprehensive story line of the Infinity Gauntlet, for example. At least movies are less expensive.
The hn comment I linked told of how the company I drove for became the default cab company for the Phoenix area. One aspect was how passengers could file a complaint, and they'd look into it.

I got taken for a ride by a taxi driver in San Jose, cira 2003... That should have been a $20 fare, not a $100 fare, but I was naïve.

Sometimes my passengers would watch our route on their phone.

The breakdown is:

- Working professionals making low 6 figures (espicially in states with income taxes) pay much closer to EU taxes than most people think.

- Non professional jobs (service industry and blue-collar) are taxed very lightly, but have worse benefits, less job protection, and an extremely limited social safety net.

- Government jobs have better benefits than other non-professional jobs, but often the pay is not great (I suspect no better than EU, but honestly have no clue what e.g. a postal worker in the EU makes).

- The very wealthy are taxed very lightly compared to the EU.
There is no "switching majors" in Brazil. You make the application for the major that you want, and you are competing against everyone that also applied to that course. If you decide to switch after starting a major, you almost certainly will be forced to drop out and re-apply.

But in reality, even that doesn't matter. In the best universities, your worst students will be better than the average students at the second-rate institutions. If the teacher is simply giving the class to the top 75 percentile, the class will be even better still at the top uni.

This isn't completely true. What you're talking about are called "echo chambers" or "filter bubbles", and there are ways to make sure they don't negatively impact users.

Additionally, studies have found that (when A/B testing recommender system vs no recommender system) users create their own, more localized "echo chambers" in absence of a recommender. This is measured by the "diversity" of content consumed, which decreases if a user is their own recommender.
Germany, and by extension Europe, abandoning nuclear power and making itself more dependent on a country historically at odds with the rest of Europe will go down as one of the biggest political/economic blunders of the century. Germany is such a powerful economy in Europe that it being so dependent on Russian gas will effect every country and they will all collectively suffer.

It's also pathetic that both the US and EU both now have to go beg other bad actors for oil/gas.
I think the article is a bit too dismissive of Real-Time Tactics; they are definitely a spin-off genre, and some like the Total War series have significant strategy elements - you have to grow your armies, not just lead them.

I also like the Combined Arms RT from Eugen games - the Wargame and Steel Division series are great and Wargame: Red Dragon has a very enthusiastic multiplayer community. The games are very competitive and yet the APM is quite low. Here you can see top ranked player zoom out and examine the game map at a leisurely pace compared to Stacraft players: https://youtu.be/HBynkUYmH8E?t=2164

Their game in early access - WARNO has various smart orders to automate some common actions.

What sets Combined Arms RTT from others is the focus on Combined arms and realism. They have a deck-building element where you choose the units available to you to match your strategy of control of the map (see why I think the article was too dismissive?). You have all kinds of interesting tradeoffs. In example you might find that cheap but highly available tanks are great for fire support, even if they can't face the best of enemy armour.

This genre potentially will have a really good year, with three competing titles coming out - WARNO, Regiments (single player) and Broken Arrow.
You pay health insurance in Europe, it's just that it's baked-in in the salary and you have no choice than to pay for the public system (as there is very little competition).

For example, in Estonia the minimum you have to pay per month just to health insurance is 201.20 EUR and this barely covers anything except extreme injuries, so on top you add a private insurance :|
The original author seemed to think so and the regular speaking engagements and book deals seem consistent with that. It might not be the exclusive reason but it certainly seems a factor.
That sounds like even more of a nightmare, dockerizing some ultra custom OpenGL and real time audio Scheme development environment?
Spoiler alert: we (US) already collect enough taxes to adequately fund all of those things.
Because it hasn't happened yet. It might not happen.

Which region are you in? In some parts of the world it’s very lucrative to not have a full time job, others where employment law isn’t very strong like the US - it’s not as worth it.
GCC support of Objective-C is very very poor.
Reducing the risk of a bad case is protecting people from the virus.
Considering oil is priced in USD it will cost more euros to buy it. The USD is also the global reserve currency and it’s more expensive for a European to participate than ever before in the Euro era.

On the other hand it’s a great time for Americans to travel to Europe. Americans have for decades been relatively wealthy compared to Europeans but today are considerably so.

If you’re a Euro planning a trip to Disney, it’s very expensive right now.
From first hand experience, I can say that quality of selection makes a big difference in your university experience. My first university was /modestly/ selective. My second university was not-at-all selective. (I was a terrible university student.) The difference in class discussion and group projects cannot be understated. Students from the higher quality selection university were much more intellectually engaging.
Discussion about US taxation often omit:

- the state & local taxes (can be as high as 12-15%)

- social security (6.2%, tapers off after 150k)

- medicare (2% generally)

- net investment income tax (3.8%)

- different tax treatments of short and long term capital gains

Sure, if you just look at the federal rate, the US tax rate does seem a lot lower...

VAT are generally higher in Europe though. Even in the "high sales tax" areas in the US, you'd typically get ~10% compared with 22% in Europe.
Choosing to use FOSS software to build products/services has always involved an element of caveat emptor, and even with the best of intentions, mistakes and errors are introduced sometimes, as they can be into any commercial software.

The technology industry (as the typical consumer of FOSS) generally understands that and introduces appropriate measures (dependency reviews, hiring developers with relevant experience, requesting professional security audits, keeping backups, ...).

Despite all those (sometimes expensive) measures, industry continues to develop (and indeed thrive) using FOSS, implying the trade-off is worthwhile. My guess is that it is in fact massively worthwhile, especially when comparing the technology economics of today with years and decades past.

Therefore I think it's reasonable to ask questions any time that barriers are raised -- however small -- on the production-side of FOSS. That's not where the bulk of the revenues are accruing.

(I also have a vague sense that 2FA could later be misused as an attempt to strongly-attribute blame, which again feels potentially unfair/unbalanced. if your business risk is high when upgrading packages, then you should review those updates more carefully and keep a record of the financial efforts and rewards)
Let me phrase it differently: I don't see the need to invoke catastrophic risk to explain current FX moves. I would expect a tail event inferred from vol markets to start with.
> It was "intended" when the price was originally set. The goal was that the European economy would keep its ratio to the US roughly the same.

This is just a baseless assertion you’ve made repeatedly. You should provide some source and be a tad less aggressive about it if you want to be convincing.
Bulgaria has a 10% flat tax. Hungary 15% flat tax. There are others.

Do the same how? Putin's demands were clear at the start of the war - cede Crimea to Russia, and let Donetsk and Luhansk become independent: https://www.reuters.com/world/kremlin-says-russian-military-...

The majority of those territories were already occupied for the last 8 years, it would have been better to negotiate that at the start.
As far as my own experiences go, it mostly comes down to fat. That slight (or less slight, for many) fattiness in the face evokes a sense of softness that we seem to interpret as younger. If this is offset by decent skincare and less sun wrinkles, it makes people seem a little younger than their sharp-featured peers. When you add in some of the cultural aspects of overall appearance and behavior, it gets even stranger: have you ever noticed how someone who usually wears t-shirts and jeans/shorts tends to look awkward in even a well-fitted suit? The way we carry ourselves sends a huge amount of signal about confidence which also tends to come from life experience (inb4 "source?", I'm not going to provide sources, look it up yourselves if you dare).
You add a simple and reasonable (until it gets abused) assumption to your model which allows a lesser data collection burden on thousands of universities. I wouldn't call it a restriction.
you can get to 50% (up to 39% federal and 12% state) in CA before sales and real estate tax if you are in high enough tax braket.
Wow, Elizabeth Warren loses more of my respect every day.

The tech salaries you see discussed in the US are in jobs that also cover healthcare, so we don't pay out of pocket each month for health insurance. And these jobs include "unlimited vacation", however most people don't take more than about 4 weeks a year.
Been watching NASA TV for the last hour (got on early before the first delay). It would be nice to have some update of when it's actually going to happen.
"better profile to attract employers" -- this is very important in the United States. If you are good student from a below average university, your job prospects are /much/ worse!
If the last decade has been all about that, then clearly a 2FA mandate won't lead to it, since it's already here.

FWIW, I have multiple open source projects. I don't have a COC. I haven't renamed any of my branches. I haven't gotten any pushback.
Man I am the exact opposite. If I have had it on DVD, I've ripped it and I'd rather watch that, rather then pay $4 to rent any other stream of a product I already have.
The current generation also had CERN which gave us confirmation of Higgs and LIGO which confirmed Gravity Waves, two of the biggest discoveries of the century.
If they slip further down the slope you can, as a maintainer, protest there. 2FA is literally the least you can do to help prevent the kind of 'supply chain attacks' we've been seeing in the open source community for years now. If they continue, in spite of your protest, you can always distribute your library some other way or retire it.
"medical-debt-related" bankruptcy then. To your point, wonder if it's higher than any other ___-related bankruptcies (anyone have data on that?)

Do they have payroll taxes? I struggle to see how you could run a pension system at those tax rates.

The 26% figure above does include the FICA payroll tax.
Yeah, get a move on!
It's interesting to think what most universities would do to a student who tried to falsify their data like this.
I'll leave the discussion about correlation vs causation to others, I'm just here to add that the new German health minister Karl Lauterbach somewhat infamously fully abstains from added salt in his food to the point of having extra stuff prepared for him at gatherings.

He's a bit like a Richard Stallman for salt.
This is a prime use case for DL models I'd think. Train them in age prediction now and then set it on older photos. There would be issues certainly but it seems pretty doable.
Oh my goodness, no -- that wasn't it at all. To the contrary, the 1990s sucked for software development: everything was proprietary and (not unrelated) mostly terrible. Worse, the world was moving in the wrong direction, as what had started as a liberating computing movement (personal computing) had turned into a proprietary monster in the form of Microsoft. If you want to know what software development in the 1990s was like, read "Showstopper!"[0]; if you want to know what it was like to try start a company in the shadow of Microsoft, read "Startup"[1] -- and if you want to know just how shabbily software engineers were thought of, read (actually don't -- it's terrible) Ed Yourdon's "Decline and Fall of the American Progammer."[2]

Anyone telling you that the 1990s were "all about the craft" is pranking you. This may be an uncomfortable truth, but you live in the best time in human history to be a software engineer!

I'm 45 and overweight, and my dogs tire out at around 8 miles ~= 13 km.

If you're at all an animal lover and in a life situation where you can, adopt a medium size dog of a semi-active breed (say, 20-30kg mutt with some shepherd breed in it, but not a pure working dog!). Take the dog for an hour-long walk every single day. The dog will teach you to be a walker.

(If you can't get a dog, find a local shelter and volunteer to walk the dogs there. Many will let you "borrow" a dog for 30 mins at a time, so you can give 2-3 dogs a walk in one visit. It helps the dogs, too!)
Lord I know... I think about that sometimes, then I wonder if we get the same great deal on our military spending that we do on our healthcare.
In the christian view earthly things will never statisfy us, as what we are seeking is the infinite. So only what is infinite can statisfy us, however there is only one such thing in existence: God.

People who have not realized this or do not want to realize this will be stuck restless going from one thing to another. As St. Augustine famously put it: "You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our heart is restless until it rests in you."

As for practical advice I cant offer much exept that you should build an awarness of how much is given in your life. Your job, your wealth, your wife, your kids are all given to you and can be taken from you again at any moment. Especially your life is something you did not merit by your own actions at all, life was given to you and it will be taken from you without you having much of a choice in it.

Obviously I recommend finding God, but there is no set "algorithm" for finding him. For some people its enough to be convinced intellectually, for some its not. I dont know you so I dont know what you would respond to. The only general thing I could say is that you should try to keep yourself open to God.
Frankly, it would have been idiotic for vaccine makers not to use the New and Improved (TM) definitions of vaccine effectiveness to promote old vaccines as more effective now.
Art is a great analogy here because you don't get to have a say in the process when an artist is doing it for themselves. You can look and critique, but you don't get to have control. If you want that, you're welcome to commission a piece and pay for it.
> Stanford is surely the most prestigious general-purpose university west of, well, Harvard.

Is that no longer Yale? From the perspective of someone who had a rather poor exposure to universities during my high school years—so, precisely what someone gets from pop-culture and osmosis without anyone in particular acting as a guide—my impression was that Harvard and Yale were unambiguously the Big Two, and everything else fell somewhere after them in terms of recognition and prestige.

Is this a CS perspective? I hear a lot about Stanford's CS program so I assume it's notably good.
But then why is the most printed currency the one getting strongest fastest?
Most Americans think that taxes are high elsewhere and low in America, and I guess Europeans think that? Maybe it’s true but I think American taxes are higher than people seem to believe though.

A tech worker in Silicon Valley will easily hit >40% income tax (30+ federal, 10 Cali). Sales tax is up to 10%. Many places have affordable property tax due to American laws on home ownership. California may be a state with laws closer to Europe than many other American states (eg texas). Massachusetts/New England generally have “better” laws too (eg MA has stronger healthcare protections than most states).

Not sure what ordinary Europeans actual pay, but an internet search says German taxes go up to 40s, which seems pretty inline with Cali.

Obviously a tech worker in SV will be top few % for American salaries, but you need to be a well paid urban worker in America to be able to get healthcare and an income that affords college for children and good public transit and other things Europeans get from their governments.
TLSA replaces certificate authorities like LetsEncrypt with DNS registrars, and, in the process, gives up certificate transparency and the rest of WebPKI surveillance; WebPKI surveillance has resulted in the termination of some of the largest certificate authorities, for misissuance; meanwhile, your browser can't terminate the TLD operators. It's not a good tradeoff.
> you have no choice than to pay for the public system

You can very much opt out from the "public system" in Germany. I'm privately insured.
I always wondered if the pieces could be redesigned to have a strong bias towards landing "face down" when bumped; I've definitely accidentally revealed pieces before when making a quick move.
Yet 80% of Waterloo computer science grads move to the US after graduating to enjoy a higher quality of life.
Texas is the cheapest place in the US to charge an EV. Very occasionally it has the most expensive electricity in the US, but most of the time its the cheapest.

The nice thing about an EV is that you can schedule your electricity usage. On average, my EV needs about half an hour of charging daily and is plugged in about 14 hours a day. So I just charge while its cheap and ignore the times when its expensive.
1) NATO took it's action in Libya due to UN Security Council resolution 1973. First several NATO members (and non-members like UAE and Qatar) were attacked to implement the UNSC resolution. A couple weeks later, NATO took over as a coordinating body of the military forces. Some members (like Germany) declined to participate at all.

2) NATO never put Ukraine on the path to membership, although as a result of this invasion they're changing their mind.
To put this into perspective a little, Belgian income tax is 40% after 23000 euros (which is now 23k dollar) and 50% after 43000 euros. So the issue here is the middle and even lower class being hit with incredibly high taxes.
“Treat” is the wrong operative word here. There is no cure or treatment for ADHD, but there are definitely non-pharmaceutical strategies, which combined with education and therapy, can help mitigate symptoms.

I’m sure the app works great to help educate children with focus issues in school, but it’s very unlikely it will do anything to help with the remaining executive dysfunction problems which will become very apparent once they reach adulthood.

I am not sure we are living on the same continent. Europe has not entered the war; the war has entered Europe, on a Russian tank. “Europe” (whoever this is) cannot withdraw from the war. The war will be thee until either Ukraine or Russia bleeds dry. And if it is Ukraine, then it will be only a start of political and economical instability.
I've often wondered why someone doesn't reimplement elasticsearch using sqlite as the back-end datastore, instead of lucene.

Or did I just describe foundationDB?

I guess the real problem is that such a beast wouldn't have kibana, and people want kibana and put up with elasticsearch to get it.
