Traditionally, the EU is eroding their market and terrible at writing laws. You can’t legislate product decisions. That’s not what people actually want.

As Facebook and their suits illustrate, you can’t always run an international and feature-full service with their laws. The requirements for federation will probably devolve to an email or SMS fallback or just a lack of service offered. Big companies that don’t want to retreat at the risk of market share will totally provide lip service to the rules and implement the exact letter of the law and nothing more.

I expect that the EU taking this and other action will be a lot like the GDPR: solving a problem and providing a few solutions but basically none of the vision. The GDPR mandates data-exporting out of a service with the idea of portability. Except no one offers imports so there’s no real portability gained, just auditability (which is nice).

I do agree that I expect long trials and significant fines. The EU will look good politically for taking a stand to those big American companies. Those big American companies will maybe write a big check but certainly appeal for a decade.
Alternate viewpoint, we have more than enough students graduating in Computer Science and other STEM fields, many of whom have a hard time finding a job because most companies don't want to invest in training anyone up anymore, and they're enabled by the H1B program. If we incentivized/forced companies to build people up from basic college graduate again, it would be even better than finding skilled immigrants.
> A lot countries I've looked into take 5-10 years for citizenship, the US is 14.5 months on average.

In this tutorial, we'll learn how to persist data in a docker container. By default, docker containers are stateless by nature, meaning once a container is destroyed, everything is erased from the container.
> Highly processed

By that standard every meat product is highly processed too. Since you cut it, add salt and pepper and sear it in oil. It’s literally just mushrooms with seasoning and cooked in oil. I doubt your enjoying your mushrooms raw all the time? Ever add a bit of salt and fry them in butter? Wham, highly processed!
Oracle is evil
Totally agree. Wonder the use case why they don’t run Linux and put FreeBSD in a VM where everything would work perfectly.
Yeah, I'd say the kind of code that you're writing makes all the difference.

For instance, Python has scikit-learn, pandas, jupyter and similar libraries for doing scientific computing. If I were trying to do this work in Java or Javascript I'd have to write a lot of code from scratch.

On the other hand there are things I could write quickly in Python that wouldn't run fast enough so one might say my productivity is 0 (no useful final product) if I write in Python.
The policy does seem absurd hindsight. As does the whole "wash your hands for 20 seconds" and "we see no reason to record mask-wearing". I agree it's important to be cautious when deciding whether an emergency overrides the right to liberty. We have to bear in mind that in mid-2020 we had very little knowledge of the fatality, infectiousness, or transmission mechanism of the virus. It was huge, unknown risk to public health, there wasn't time to research the virus profile or to carefully construct fine-grained policies.
It seemed like OP was arguing that private medical practices, which are still allowed in England, should be banned because they're using up all the "resources" the NHS needs (doctors/nurses).

Credit score is hilarious. Until I was like 30 I paid for literally everything with cash. Everything. Never missed a bill. My credit report/score came back "unreportable." Not a shred of data to go off of. I was unable to obtain any credit card. I ultimately had to go to a bank and place $1500 in what was basically a 0% CD for the duration of my credit card, with the agreement my bank would just take it if I didn't pay. After a couple of years of paying that religiously they allowed me to unsecure the funds, but I still had shitty credit afterwards.
That was the result of the aforementioned internal torpedoing of Corbyn though, right? Cutting off the nose to spite the face or something.
Your own source disagrees.

Per your own link:
“ Variations in caesarean section rates across countries have been attributed to a number of factors, including financial incentives, malpractice liability concerns, differences in the availability and training of midwives and nurses, and the proportion of women who access private maternity care. For example, there is evidence that private hospitals tend to perform more caesarean sections than public hospitals. In Switzerland, caesarean sections were found to be substantially higher in private clinics (41%) than in public hospitals (30.5%) (OFSP, 2013[1]).”

This is a pretty silly response. Are people entitled to live wherever they want? No. But the situation is very obviously not that black and white. We allow many things in society that people aren't entitled to, largely because we believe it will build a better society.

Am I entitled to own my investment properties? No.

Am I entitled to block neighbouring housing from being built? No.

But society allows both of these things because they ostensibly should result in a better society. Of course, they may not, and if they don't result in a better society, we should probably turn the dial back on these factors, but not get rid of them altogether.

So should anyone be entitled to live anywhere? No. But should a middle-class person be able to build a life in places where there are opportunities for job growth (and like it or not, right now, that's the big cities)? Probably, if we think that will result in a better society. So we may need to turns some policy dials to ensure this will happen.

> RCS Only has advantages over regular SMS.

Only if you don't count building/support/maintenance of RCS. SMS works well enough for it's main jobs: fallback for people that won't install a 3rd party app, an insecure channel for TOTP (something RCS doesn't improve on), and the one near-guaranteed messaging channel for a whole range of services that can't or won't write an app with push notifications.

Adding RCS is not free/easy and it continues to make us dependent on the carriers and Google, two groups I trust about as far as I can throw them. RCS is a crap "standard", this isn't a case of good being the enemy of great, it's a case of Google trying to force their latest messaging platform on everyone.
At the levels where an LVT is effectively coercive, it’s functionally indistinguishable from rent paid to the government for land you don’t actually own.

You can't just have a drone deploy a reasonable enough mirror that tracks the beam wherever it goes?

Yeah maybe he isn't happy with the plain non alcoholic options, which I agree makes sense. But any bar can make you a bitters and soda, or a seltzer with lime or any number of other drinks.

If it's a beer and wine social, because they don't want to deal with mixing anything, I do think it's an oversight on their part to not at least have some kind of soda options.
Don't most countries in the EU have a mix of public and private health care providers? How do they manage it?
Seems like it should be similar to liquid smoke in that it's in water and alcohol after being filtered, so, it should contain much less of the bad stuff than the barrel initially contained. These compounds can sometimes dissolve into water or alcohol, but it seems rare and the larger, filterable compounds are only soluble in lipids (according to wikipedia).

> And even if I did it, the complexity of my library just went from a few hundred lines of glue code to 1,000+ lines of type generation (plus tests for the generated types).

I would say that the increased complexity of your project would accurately reflect the complexity of the underlying API

> As a library developer, adding TypeScript types would make my life harder.

Yes, but it would mean that the various parameters passed to your library would now be type safe, which sounds worth the work
This is true only if you place zero value on "having a roof over my head".
> Just using JS and letting things break without knowing it?

And if types change, and it still works, it's basically working by accident.
> I’ve spoken to people that are like “I don’t like any vegetarian food”… and I’m like… so you don’t eat fries? (Oh uh I guess 90% of what I eat is already vegetarian… mmhmm)

You can't (or shouldn't) live of fries. A complete vegetarian / vegan diet is not that enjoyable to eat, albeit all the processed vegetarian food make things way easier.

I started brainwashing my parents at 16 with vegetarianism because I trusted the scienc struggled for 15 years to gain any muscle because vegetable based proteins are less bioavailable and eating a lot of proteins is hard. Got kidney stones because of the vegetarian protein shakes.

After 15 years of eating a 95% low fat, high carb vegetarian diet (at least striving for it!) I started having serious health issues. Constant diarrhoea, stomach ulcers, anal bleeding. Took some meds to fix the symptoms and kind of live.

2 years of suffering and wanting to kill myself. The doctors were telling me I had high cholesterol (from what?) and needed to be put on statins and that I had to avoid eating the little meat I had. And anyway, it was probably stress related.

After 2 years, I decided to do exactly the opposite of what the doctors told me and dropped first all the processed carbs (bread, pasta, pizza - pretty hard considering I love baking bread and pizza), then after not seeing much improvements I dropped vegetables and fruit and started eating just eggs, meat and dairy.

All the symptoms disappeared in a week and I started losing weight. I eat very little calories (which is one of the best things for longevity), no hunger, my protein needs are met and I can still lift similar amount of weight.

So, right now I'm on a carnivore diet, mainly for health reasons.

From a moral point of view, I absolutely don't care, I would eat people if it were healthy (there are some deadly diseases you can get with cannibalism) and if other people wouldn't kill me (or eat me?) for it.
In Denmark housing built before 1992 cannot be rented out for profit. The owner can only demand enough rent to cover for upkeep and maintenance. However it's still a lucrative business to invest in old housing in the bigger towns and cities because the price is only trending upwards.

It's the first of his 5 gripes. There's only 5 of them and they're titled. A few of the other gripes also mention the lack of documentation, so it definitely appears to be his main gripe.

I agree with GP, you don't seem to have read his article and knee jerked a reply.

And all you have to do to prove your point is to link some great documentation explaining how to make complex types for libraries and how to test them.

Which you haven't.
> My hypothesis is that alcohol supports a rapid transition from work to relaxation

In cultures that do not drink alcohol, we gather up around non-alcoholic drinks like tea (especially more involved brews like Karak or Kashmiri), and that in itself is relaxing, regardless of the caffeine content of the drink. It's mostly about the setting and atmosphere.

Time and time again, studies and anecdotes are showing the destructive power of alcohol on so many different levels, from individual health to society.

Getting therapy, particularly talking therapy with a qualified therapist. I know this doesn't answer your question exactly, but it'll very likely help you uncover the root of the anxiety and manage it way better. It's one of the best things I can recommend. If you must go down the self help route, I'd consider looking at physical changes as well as the things your looking for, such as exercise, diet, relationships, getting outdoors, and so on. Good luck.
So one example is pushing the surveillance and anti encryption agenda covered in this article.
The article boils down to asking for the TS team for better documentation and tooling. Hard to argue with that I guess.

Plants have waxy leaves; surfactants which dissolve waxes allow the glyphosate to enter the plant; such surfactants tend to be highly potent (i.e, they'd effectively strip oils from skins cells and get into those cells). Soap probably wouldn't dissolve waxes.

Fundamentally, the exact identity of the 'inert ingredients' in Roundup and similar products should be exposed on the label. Currently that's proprietary information, but there's a wide range of toxicity of such substances.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30951798/

> "(2019) As glyphosate-based-herbicide composition is legally classified as confidential commercial information, confusion concerning the identity and concentrations of co-formulants is common and descriptions of test substances in published studies are often erroneous or incomplete. In order to resolve this confusion, laws requiring disclosure of the chemical composition of pesticide products could be enacted. Research to understand health implications from ingesting these substances is required."
I'll recommend VS Codium instead of VS Code then. It provides fully open source binaries of VS Code without all the telemetry enabled.

GrapheneOS on any pixel phone is my goto. It's way easier to install a custom ROM now than back in the day, anyone can do it if they can follow instructions (and reseat their phone cable if the process stalls after a phone reboot)

Why are you not entitled to own your investment properties?
Every right requires infrastructure, investment, and labor to ensure. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness aren’t free.

Whether or not housing should be a right, rights that are expensive to provide but are nonetheless provided anyway are nothing new.
My guess is that they may have forgotten to backfill old data (because probably whether a commit is verified is not computed on the fly), but I don't see why it can't apply retroactively.

Maybe try removing and adding the public key from your account? That might trigger the system to scan all your commits and re-verify.

Probably not, because it's an opinion.
Honestly, that's just silly. There's absolutely no reason to accept that many different call styles. Why not just take in an array? As a user I don't find things like this convenient, I find them to be confusing footguns. It's a one liner to split your comma separated string into an array as an end-user, but once you add that complexity to the interface in the library you can never ever take it out.

I don't like spas/massages. I don't really like sports.

If I won a "Day Package" or "Great seats for watch FOO", how about just being nice to someone and giving the prize away?

I'm sure you can find an unappreciated admin/receptionist/intern and really make their day and sure beats complaining about it.
Even more confusing is why we then have 100k immigrants that are randomly selected with unknown skills from all over the world to come here and take up things like driving taxis. All the while we have labor shortages for basic things like nannies and baby sitters.
Nice update. Hopefully the work being done to update wifi support on FreeBSD will come to something and something like wifibox won't be necessary.

We were trying to add types to some of our code. And the types were getting ridiculously convoluted. And at that point it was like - maybe it's not the types that are the problem, maybe it's the interface that needs to be rewritten.

i'm not sure what you mean by "choice on ad surveillance", but my point was about anti-trust, not simply anti-competitiveness or monopoly. anti-trust is using market power in one segment to distort another one unfairly.

the precedent you point out is what helps apple claim they're not a trust, because the two components, ads and content, go together in one business model. with google, being paid to place ads is the business model, and competing in the various channels for those ads are potential anti-trust encroachments because they're different markets.

as is usual in these cases, the harm is an inflated market price above the non-distortionary baseline.
If types change, it doesn't compile and I can't do a release in CI.

I don't consider that working.
