Germany also doesn't have Uranium either. Nuclear power plants are simply not competitive. Part of that is due to legal security requirements. But they need fuel and cooling to work. They need to be rebuild regularly and the storage question is not solved. There is a lack infrastructure and energy storage, this is why Germany exports power to other countries who have them, but solving these issues are a better strategy than new nuclear plants.

Nuclear power will not help fighting climate change and it is simply too expensive compared to other renewable sources. That is the opinion of leading engineers too and exceptionally widely spread.
Off the top of my head, some results would be:

1. No one wants to lend to your country again because you paid them back with currency far less valuable than expected

2. Nobody wants to use your currency as a means of exchange in international transactions because it can fluctuate suddenly

3. Massive redistribution of wealth from savers and lenders to borrowers (maybe a good thing on the whole, but devastating for people headed into retirement)

4. Anything (including govt. programs) that aren't indexed to inflation are suddenly far less valuable
So it’s a cookie. Do they ask for permission to set it in the EU?
I won't argue with the hypothesis at large (even though I hope it's unfounded), but as it applies to this particular situation, you're ignoring a crucial factor: the gargantuan incentive for monopolists to convince you that their monopolies actually protect you. It's incredible how successful Apple has been in convincing their users that freedom is bad, and I'm absolutely positive it's not because Apple is genuinely concerned about society; they're concerned about their multi-billion-dollar revenue streams.

If we reach a point as a society that we decide we have too much freedom, we should absolutely never let it be regulated by corps with such a perverse incentive.
It matches all the evidence because we looked at the available evidence and highly tweaked the model until it matched.

There has been no direct observation of Dark Matter, so saying "it matches all the evidence" may be redundant, since by definition, we said "Let's create something that matches all the evidence and look for it."
I see your username pretty regularly, have you not seen my (many) rebuttals to this link?

TLDR: the enforcement is nowhere near enough.
OCI released A1 Arm based bare metal (BM) and virtual machine instances last year too in EU regions, also based on the Ampere Altra chips that Hetzner is using.

So Hetzner seems to be way off track with this claim about being the first dedicated Arm based servers in Europe.
Scaleway did it years ago (if you consider dev boards dedicated servers), before they had matured into something usable.
You might be interested in the `git maintenance` subcommand that was introduced in Git 2.31. It can do per-repository automatic background garbage collection on a configurable schedule, among other things.
That!

Also, 'git reset' is only dangerous in some modes, e.g., --hard. It's a user experience nightmare to have the same command be nice in one case and dangerous in another, depending on an option parameter. It is a very useful command, so it's likely that you accidentally lose your local changes the one day when you're a bit tired, maybe.

Also, 'git checkout' is used for many good things like, well, checkout. To abuse it also for reverting local changes is a user experience nightmare, too. It should have a different command for that functionality.
I don't mind being on call at my current place. I'm an app owner so I absolutely am the right person to call if things really get out of control. (So I don't even mind being in the escalation list if I'm NOT on call).

What I cannot stand is when folks insist on not tagging errors that they have no intention (or no timeline) on fixing. If you have no plan to fix something, stop waking me up at 3am for an alert. At a former job, I used to put this out to my superiors constantly. "Please tag this alert, get a ticket into our backlog so we can prioritize a fix". Alerts should be for exceptional situations. We've allowed services like New Relic to convince us that Appdex scores always translate to losing money.

Bluetooth is absolute garbage, I hate it with a passion even if overall it works in 90% of cases.

Just the other day I was connecting my phone to a mobile speaker in the garden. The phone is an inch away from it. Still doesn't connect, just a spinner that times out after a minute with "connection failed".

Why does it fail? Who knows. It might work tomorrow. Or on another phone. Or when the weather is different. What on earth are two devices directly next to each other doing for 60 seconds?

I also have a few BT controlled LEDs where from an app I control brightness and color temperature. My phone is always in range, but the BT connection just doesn't sustain itself. It intermittently drops after which I need to redo the setup again on every single light.

I'm sure the reason is "low power" or "interference" but that doesn't mean anything. It's not actionable. It's fragile and unreliable tech.
Are you saying God likes to yeet buggy unmaintainable spaghetti code directly into production?
I see what you're doing, and I like it :)

But what I mean by expose is to reveal to people that this person is a liar. What I mean by "soul" or "consciousness" is the common usage of the term. Essentially, this person would be claiming that he can move a participant's essence or frame of view (with memories, personality, etc.) from a human body to a digital one. At least, that's how I would interpret it, and I don't think the average person would be that far off.
It's not really an edge case. Everyone drives on paved private property (parking lots and the like). A flat 2% mileage reduction per year is probably enough to cover this for the vast majority of people. So if someone drives 10,000 miles a year, you'd charge them for 9800 miles with the assumption that they drove about 200 miles on private property that year.

As someone intimately familiar with the underbelly of the system I can add 3) most of the local corrupting pressure historically came from smaller (than big tech) companies outside of tech so less of a spotlight on them in forums like this one. Think auto industry.

EU institutions tend to want to do the right thing but will easily cave to "lobbying" when it comes to regulation that hits too close to home. They will not hesitate to regulate to the benefit of the people when the regulation hits far from home, lobbying be damned.

In fewer words, they will accept to be corrupted by interests close to home and still put the well being of citizens at any other time.
It's not about absolute value; it's about relative value. if not making the change costs them the whole market (about 25% of their revenue) and making the change adds 30% to engineering overhead or adds 30% costs due to secondary effects (such as market-share loss to Android because Apple's performance moat suffers), it might not be worth it.

To be clear: I think this is the right kind of hardball for EU to play. The stakes are high, but most outcomes are a net win for the EU. It seems like strategically good law.
The use case for using the database here is overblown. I've never experienced of heard of anyone using a view for the users table. I suppose it may exist in the wild somewhere.

I wouldn't avoid Ruby features because the applications I develop are in Ruby and it would require a complete rewrite anyway. I avoid the database because there are development speed advantages to using Rails features. And everything works together nicely assuming you do things the Rails way.

> How exactly does that work with end-to-end encryption?

Exactly how we deal with everything else that works across platforms: standardization. We've done it at least once before (SSL/TLS), I'm sure these rich and "amazingly smart" companies can figure out how to achieve it once again.

> Isn't there, again, some hardware security issues in play with that?

Is there hardware security issues with accept CC details on the web? Assuming the computer itself isn't compromised, the web seems to (again) have figured out how to deal with it across platforms, both OSes and browsers, why can't phone OSes do it?
My other thing is... why does something like this need to run in a browser? What's wrong with desktop apps?

See. It is frankly pointless. Chrome already has a significant amount of mindshare and will grow even more after this.

The users have already chosen Chrome (and its derivatives). Mozilla has done absolutely nothing to stop it as Firefox has become totally irrelevant today. The EU is about to allow the world domination of Chrome and its derivatives to takeover entirely.

Just like the many choices of a Linux distro, you will have the many choices of Chromium based browsers! All thanks to 'oPEn SoUrcE'.
I will not dispute that we need more enforcement, but it definitely exists and helps. For example, Google recently changed their "cookies" dialogue from "More options" to "Reject all".

Let's hope that the Brussels effect does its magic

> The Brussels effect is the process of unilateral regulatory globalisation caused by the European Union de facto (but not necessarily de jure) externalising its laws outside its borders through market mechanisms. Through the Brussels effect, regulated entities, especially corporations, end up complying with EU laws even outside the EU for a variety of reasons.

That's a good question, but I assume that anti-trust regulators will decide what is "reasonable" partly based on the number of users of your messaging app.

Obviously there's a bit of a chicken-and-egg problem there, but if one of these gatekeepers has 100 million users, then it is hard to justify them writing and maintaining a load of extra code to interoperate with an app that has less than, say, 1 million users.

Perhaps in practice, though, the gatekeepers will be able to publish a simple API and say that all competitors who want to interoperate with them can do so, after signing a contract with their lawyers and exchanging public keys in person, and paying an administrative fee (to prevent spammers).
Thanks! Great job on this btw :)
They're not even that. AWS (via Graviton) and OCI (via the same Ampere Altra chips Hetzner are using) at least have had Arm servers in Europe for a while. AWS longer than OCI.

Different metrics tell a different story. For example GitHub pull requests [1] are C++: 2.60%, Rust: 2.09%, C: 1.43%, with a clear trend showing Rust ahead of C++ next year. Or you could look at the Stackoverflow survey of languages used among professionals [2], which gives C++: 20.17%, C: 16.7%, Rust: 8.8%, with rust gaining 1-2% each year.

There's no best metric, they're all biased, you need to consider a few different ones. Otherwise you won't notice when you've stumbled upon one with with an extreme view.

Combining C and C++ in language stats is debatable, they should IMHO be measured separately. When grouped as a language category, "C/C++/Rust" is slowly becoming more common.

component oriented programming is nothing new and comes with its own set of problems.

this also smells like distributed programming where you have loose services on a computer communicating. nothing new either.

these approaches have other issues, like performance penalties and additional complexity and their own sets of problems.
Yes but I may have a on old working iphone laying in my desktop that I would like to reuse for ecological reason
> In your book, is that exploitation or not?

the law has something to say about that - a person under duress can void the contract they sign as they are not of sound mind (and dying due to a heart attack could be easily construed as under duress).

But a migrant who considered their options, not under duress (except the "duress" of unemployment in their own country), and chose to work overseas to earn more than they could at home, is not really exploitation.

> The old people these pseudo-nurses have to take care of curse at them ... It's arguably worse than prison

they could leave the job, and probably should if they feel mistreated. I don't doubt that there's bad apples and there are migrants who feel they are "stuck" with not much other choice but to "take it". I really don't believe that they are stuck - and if it was due to lack of education and knowledge of possible choices they can take (for example, dobbing on employers who mistreat them), they would - and this is a lack of regulatory safeguards etc.

Wondering if others feel the same, if it's like this everywhere, or if there is a place where you can learn from developers who are passionate about high quality code and improving their craft or if it is just more or less "ship it and move on"

Shoddy support for platforms other than Windows, not to mention VSTs going out of support by the developers and then unusable when something changes (e.g. Apple dropping support for 32-bit x86 years ago).

Good question. Sunmao focus on the UI part means it was designed to integrate any kind of backend.
And for FastAPI and other frameworks that provide OpenAPI schema, there should be a bigger potential to play with Sunmao, e.g, tables, forms, and other UIs that can connect to the API seamlessly.

As a personal suggestion, I think Sunmao is a little low-level(which brings great flexibility) to build such a kind of integration at this moment. It will be much easier after we provide some tutorials or examples of integrating with a backend framework.
In the meantime, it will be appreciated if to join our slack channel and have some deep discussion.

People think government works like a household budget - it doesn't. Think about it - who controls how much money is the economy?

Does someone measure 'okay the economy has grown 5%, it needs 5% more money to be printed?" No, nobody does that.

If the government prints zero money, the money supply can still quadruple, because banks create money out of thin air.

Which is exactly what they did prior to 2008. The reason government had to 'print' miney in 2008 is that they were replacing all the 'unsupported' money that was creates by banks, and then suddenly imploded.

As soon as you suggest government should print money everyone starts screaming inflation, but when private banks do it, noone blinks an eye.

The rules that allow banks to create money have changed dramatically over the past 20 years, and nobody is even discussing it.

There are no pain points with SPAs that can't be had in any other kind of web app architecture. Most of the problems we run into are ones we create for ourselves. Writing jQuery splatter got tiring, so we moved everything to the frontend. Then we got tired of our 300+ line Webpack configs, so now the old days of server rendered HTML is where the grass looks green. Inevitably, we will get tired of all the hacks we have to do to work around the shortcomings of HTMX/LiveView/Hotwire and move on to something else.

What tires me is the groupthink around web development. SPAs and server rendered content aren't better than one another. It's annoying and unreasonable that the current trend is that SPAs are bad. They are not. Everything bad with SPAs I've seen is caused by developers not getting their priorities straight and by bandwagoning. Stop making webpages complicated and you'll find that many problems disappear.
I'm guessing the argument is that EV's cost more upfront (since they include a battery, etc), but have a lower cost of use. Since you get charged sales tax on the upfront cost, EV's get charged sales tax on a larger percentage of the overall "ownership cost" of the car.
> but the majority of mass in the universe is somehow dark matter!

Forgive me, but shouldn’t it be, “the majority of gravity” we observe?

> through numerous experiments, other theories get ruled out while dark matter survives

We keep experimentally ruling out exotic modifications to gravity and relativity that don’t require extra mass, and dark matter theory continues because it makes the math work while it continues to fail experiment after experiment.

We’re like a kid in school being asked to show their work on a math problem, knowing the answer, and tacking “+3” at the end because it came up short. The gravity we get at the end is correct (we can see it) but we have no idea where that “3” actually comes from.
> Electric cars are also fairly comparable in curb weight due to massive weight reductions elsewhere,

Seriously, this meme needs to die. A Tesla model 3 is the same weight as a BMW 340, and the model 3 is hundreds of pounds lighter than an SUV like the BMW X3.

Batteries are heavy, but so are gas engines & transmissions.
Oracle is not the kind of company you want to test with things like that.

Trust me, I've worked with Oracle. They'll assign sales assistants and lawyers to you. They'll chase you down for pennies. Doesn't matter if you actually owe the money, they'll get it.

They spent fourteen months chasing up me and my project manager for $220 that we didn't owe them. They just decided that we should pay it and they'll work out if we actually owe them anything afterwards. The credit card had expired years ago and we hadn't used their products at all since 2016. Doesn't matter, they still spent a year assigning more and more of their team.

Eventually we just paid because it was cheaper than letting them take our company to court. The time taken from me, my line manager, and the project manager answering calls/emails/letters probably added up to a lot lot more than $220.
