> In August 2007, Denis Kvasov, head of the company which owned AllofMP3.com, was acquitted of all charges stemming from copyright infringement prosecution

I've never heard of allofmp3.com [1] but it doesn't sound like it was sued out of existence as all of the Russia court cases went in favor of their citizens (what a surprise!). Instead anybody outside of Russia was successfully prosecuted or payment processors "illegally"[2]
stopped working with them.

I guess if Russia actually withdrawals from the WTO [3] we might see a return of allofmp3.com then. Although you probably have to buy using some form of cryptocurrency. Probably won't be that hard to convince people to use bitcoin atms to watch the Avengers for 2$.

It's a Time Cube. In a single rotation of the octafluorocubane, each Time corner point rotates through the other 3-corner Time points, thus creating 16 corners, 96 hours and 4-simultaneous 24-hour Days within a single rotation.

The people making more money from unemployment were not high wage earners to begin with. They were struggling to bet by. Look at this breakdown of the sorts of jobs that recieved more in benefits than wages and those that didn't. Skilled labor like nursing saw less earnings even with the CARES act under unemployment. The people who saw substantial gains were in fields like food service, not known to be a field that lets you get by in most high cost of living areas as it is.

I like and see the value of corpspeak. Take “bandwidth”, for example. It’s superior to “time”, because it implies that something else has already filled up all the available time. Plus, by definition, bandwidth = [unit of work] / time. So if I don’t have bandwidth for something, I imply that something else needs to be removed from my workload to be able to do the thing.

Having an arsenal of phrases is not a bad thing per se; as with technology, it depends how one uses it.
Homebrew-installing newer versions than the macOS provided ones is a must in my opinion. I also recommend upgraded the Apple-provided versions of other utilities you use (e.g. less, Ruby, vim, etc.)

I had upgraded git to get `git switch`
The most important amenity is Employment. Only a small portion of people would move to tier-2 seconds and that too because of familial ties not some over whelming amenities.

By and large NRIs moving back from US end up in the usual metros at least in the beginning.
Just because you demonstrated some long-term thinking in the future does not mean the US government was not short-sighted in the past.

I don't know if it it was or not, but a few counter-points is not proof.

I am sure you could find millions of counter-points that the US and the UK are currently long-term thinking (even though I think most of us can agree that isn't the subjective truth).
I've been to work/professional events where most people have a drink in their hand, whatever that may be. I've never been to a work/professional event that was "centered around alcohol". (My experience is in the tech industry in Silicon Valley, San Francisco, and SoCal. I realize this may be different in other cultures.)
In my experience, almost every git user has an SSH key already set up, to push with. Far fewer people have GPG keys set up.

The high rate of rentals owned by individual investors is bad too if our goal is to maximize the number of home owners. I know a lot of people in my cohort who bought and moved into a new home, but kept their previous home as a rental. IMO this option is only accessible to large amount of people during this unique time because of government policy, ultra low interests rates, and societal trends. I think a large part of it is a government incentivized system that rewards incumbents in a disproportional manner. I think this disparity is contributing to overall feelings of resentment and will contribute to social issues and political turmoil.
What consequences? Something like "if you push to a repo that gets taken down for DCMA requests, you can't deny in court that you made the commit"?
Same, I thought that 2019 prices were insane. Since then it's appreciated an additional $150k. My house made more money than I did one year. I'm expecting things to level out for awhile.
That may all be true about compensation, but the poster was specifically making a claim about performance.
Surely this is a distinction without a difference though? Nobody is driving a disembodied engine with nothing attached to it around, what matters is whether or not ICE cars have more faults.

Also, electrical systems are pretty intertwined with any modern ICE engine - you'd have to go back to crank starts to remove that.
Sorry but with all due respect, "too bad, go live in the middle of nowhere" is absolutely an acceptable answer. You're acting like you're entitled to live where ever you want, but the simple reality is that this is not possible.

You need to come to grips with that objective fact.

You're asking for candor, but not giving a bit of it back. Your argument can be completely flipped for the other side and it would make the same points. You are assuming OP is on LinkedIn boards and in work meetings holding up signs to initiate RTO. In reality they are probably just on HN expressing an opinion. For Pete's sake.
Still wildly useful debugging things locally too!
I'll take the supply position. So much of LA is zoned for SFHs. Now they can have an ADU but that doesn't do much. We need density. We need to make it easier to build. That slows down climbing rents. LA housing is at a massive deficit.

I think you might be referring to Parkersburg, WV. It's right on the Ohio river, next to Ohio.
My observations are based on pretty limited anecdotes, I certainly don't have enough info to make a robust argument.
Writing new library and expecting people to actually use it without providing types is not realistic. You can write library in JS, but you will still need to provide types, since that's what ecosystem is right now.
It's part of the sigma grindset meme. A while ago Business Insider ran short videos about entrepreneur routines and it was a montage of this sort of nonsense. Then you look back and realise that all the guy did was answer two emails. It was derided and parodied.
Look at what Intel is doing with MIPI IPU6 webcams. The solution already exists.
That is the license for the Android Open Source Project. Unfortunately, Google has spent the last fifteen years moving many parts of the stack and almost (if not) all the core apps to Google Proprietary versions. Most apps in AOSP no longer receive updates at all.

The dream is here is not just that we would be running "an open source stack" but that the active development would be on the open source stack. Sure, there are new releases of AOSP. But take a look at the core apps: Contacts, Calendar, Camera, Email, Location services. These are all proprietary now.

Android is open source in the same sort of way that MacOS is open source. There are some open source bits in there.
No USB-C, like I thought.
It's just "T extends string", with a default value of `string` if you don't supply T.
I will be perfectly ok if the high interest rates drive these companies bankrupt. They chose to speculate. Speculation comes with risk. Let them bear the burden.

For owner occupancy protections, the real answer was to never to give tax breaks to investors in the first place. Only owner occupants should have any tax breaks. But this is not going to happen.

So let the speculators burn and go bankrupt.
The article wasn't about the prize. The prize was just a way of starting the conversation. The article was about about the alcohol-centric work culture in general.
I think the core of the problem is that we're losing the middle class of housing.

Obviously the nicest areas of the country, with the best weather, most opportunities, low crime, elite schools, etc. are going to be expensive. But it's getting to the point where it's prohibitively expensive for a middle class family just to live in a place without high crime/drug addiction/homelessness, reasonably good schools, reasonable healthcare options, and some measure of community/walkability (forget about weather and jobs).

You can live cheaply if you're willing to sacrifice in some of those areas, but they are major sacrifices that will have a negative influence on quality-of-life and the future prospects of kids who grow up there.

It wasn't always like this. I had a neighbor when I lived in North Berkeley (a beautiful neighborhood that checks every box you could want) who told me he bought his house in the late 90s for 150k. Now it's probably worth 2 million or more. I realized that everyone who bought on that block around that time had almost a six figure annual income for most of their adult lives solely from the appreciation of their homes.

I'm sure there are good deals out there that can still be found, but we really do have a problem if a table stakes decent family life is only affordable by the top 10% (or less).
Worth calling out that gitsign works with any Git host for the commit signatures / verification!

The main piece that's platform specific is the Verified badges that you see in the UI + any CI checks.

I just discovered this feature so I haven't played with it enough yet but it seems to tick all my boxes. One thing that I found confusing about the UX though was that I didn't realize at first I could continue searching around and adding content, so when I added my first bit of content and clicked "Create Notebook" and then subsequently navigated somewhere else and wanted to add content I ended up creating another notebook instead of adding it to a pre-existing one. Or sometimes I come back and want to add more content to an existing notebook, but I don't see how to do that.
Both are not good analysis and not reflective of reality.

I like the message in a bottle approach! Maybe just flood the Earth with thousands of "bottles" which are shaped/constructed in a way as to not burn up on re-entry, land gently enough in the ocean and then float in salt-water for decades until they are found.
With healthy kidneys the half life of salt in the body is about half a day, maybe less. Even with destroyed kidneys, excess will be emitted in sweat, assuming the patient exercises enough to sweat... The chronic high blood pressure problem comes from destroyed kidneys being unable to excrete the salt fast enough. Bacon being a rather low carb food (as long as you don't maple glaze it or whatever, which admittedly is delicious...) the problem kind of takes care of itself in that lower carb foods tend to be higher sodium but the lower carb levels result in less damage to the kidneys, and healthy kidneys are not bothered by sodium ...

The worst case scenario would be "foods" that are both salty and high carb, which is mostly junk food and fast food.
I cannot argue here. What would go wrong, if Russian Oil and Gas are foundational to your Energy Security.

You need to be careful when doing this. The IRS requires you to file a gift tax form if you charge below market rents.

Guess it depends on what your standards are. You can have it everywhere from today to likely never.
Want just basic stuff, no apps store, no good camera, no good runtime on battery? Today, go get one.
Value security more than anything else? Available today.
Want a high end smart phone with proper open source Linux/Software and apps store, great camera, fast and great battery runtime? Likely never. Linux won’t get the required investment, nor will the hardware manufacturers provide the required support (no incentives). Even the Linux Desktop experience can’t properly get there in 2022.

But a proper Linux phone, say something like a PinePhone is great as a second phone.
I'm with you friend. Posters throw out lines like "property shouldn't be an investment" as though the idea that property has intrinsic value is something invented in the last 50 years or so, not something that has been true for millennia.

I've been told that "housing is a right" which, if conceded, still runs into your point - housing may be a right, housing in the most expensive and populated areas in the US is not a right and there's no way to make it one.

Nah sorry, never pressured anyone to drink, and if they don't good for them.
Bigger question for me.

Why use and popularize a 3rd party stored personal notes app at all? I'm well aware that this is how a lot of people do this sort of trading convenience for genuine security.

But we (well, maybe not people here) could put more effort into solutions that don't require a money making middleman, since the tech is here to solve this problem without it.
In Australia at least there's a substantial gap between affordability for millennials and us Gen X'ers, reflected in homeownership rates. The trend only seemed to have been getting worse throughout covid (governments threw a lot of money into economic recovery, combined with super low interest rates, driving up house prices despite near zero immigration and absence of foreign students etc., though they're coming down now). Was that not true in the US? Gen Z are just coming into house- buying age now, though my own son is likely 8-10 years off from being a good position to afford anything at all, and without my help (or a lottery win), it's not going to be a house or even apartment anywhere close to where I live. But a lot could change in that time.
Glyph rendering is done (through a rust crate called ab-glyph) by computing glyph vertices on the CPU, and then rendering and storing the glyph textures to the gpu. Layouts are calculated on the CPU.
Like traditional secretaries, the WH Press Secretary may have become obsolete.
> In strongly-typed programming languages, which includes Typescript, figuring out the types is not something that's done after the fact.

Too broad a statement. There's loads of value in having a compiler figure out types for you after/when you write the code.
It's easier to go to the capital of your country and bomb the parliament than go and do the same in Bruxelles. You can't expect foreign politicians who can't even spell your country correctly to care about your problems. You can keep your local politicians more accountable.

I personally think we should decentralise power even more: country level is still too much. EU level is just ridiculous.
Hm, where am I discussing my view of non-work community? Fwiw, I believe the richest interactions and results are from selfless involvement in a community and a family and building something long term.

Work culture tries to fill the same dynamic, but the profit motive, MBA culture and general sociopathy of the workplace (maybe you’d call me one?) make it a loose imitation at best.

So I play the game at work, and I actively build and value true bonds in my community and family where nobody cares about OKRs or RSUs.
>just let me build a house where somebody else already owns the property where I want to build that house.

How does that work out in your mind without abolishing the concept of property ownership? What happens when somebody wants to build their house where you already have yours?
I'm not actually sure what site you're referring to but I think you missed the point I was making.

The comment I was originally replying to was saying they'd pay for a service that had no censorship so ideally such a service would charge so "cheaply" is kind of a requirement in my question as there needs to be a cost.

Of course, taking content down for "copyright infringement" is a form of censorship (one often require by law but censorship nonetheless).
Would a duplex count as one property or two? How about a 4-plex?

Would this apply to apartment complexes as well? As in, it won't be profitable to own more than 3 complexes? Would that result in most capital going into megacomplexes and fewer people wanting to buy small apartment complexes with only, say, 10 units?

Not disagreeing with you, but there are nuances involved.
Companies are charged taxes on their profits. The interest on money borrowed in furtherance of a business is just like any other business expense: deductible.

The owner-occupied mortgage interest deduction serves to put owner-occupants onto the same footing as businesses; it’s not an incentive that gives them preference, but rather (closer to) equal footing.
Nokia had Linux on their smartphone until Microsoft bought them and stopped everything, they even shut down the app store. The OS was called MeeGo. Part of the Nokia team however started their own company called Jolla and still produce smartphones running Linux, they call their OS Sailfish. (ignoring the fact that Android also uses the Linux kernel).

The problem with alternative phone OS:es is that in the country I live you must have either an iPhone or and Android phone because the ID monopoly and Payment monopoly refuse to support other operating systems...
This is definitely the way to go. I just wanted to highlight and warn that some people do not think their actions or new features 100% through their mind. Many/Most repos were also useful without the signing feature.
> As a maintainer, why would you want people to be able to deny making a given commit? or have them come in completely anonymously?

1. Because you trust code for what it is and are willing to trade attribution surety for a lesser ask of contributors

2. Because you care about certain principles of anonymity and non-repudiation and want to respect them in your own plainly legitimate project.

3. Because your project is or risks becoming illegitimate in some jurisdiction and you want to protect your contributors as best you can.

It'd be nice if we can continue to respect these reasons as valid even while allowing other maintainers to exercise different policies.
> almost all the discussions revolved around different types of alcohol - taste, brewing techniques, etc.

I'm pretty sure I've never experienced this, maybe this person just had a set of coworkers with very specific hobbies. The topics that come up the most in my experience are sports related, which I can't relate to at all, so I just sit back and enjoy my beer.

The last drupal meetup I went to had exactly this. I'm not at all interested in growing weed but it was still an interesting discussion.
Now that makes me wonder, would the Flipper Zero be able to capture that kind of data? I'll have to buy one someday..
Yes, I understand the desires of that group and the desires of the other group. I’m suggesting that, if we truly must choose only one group to satisfy, it’s not very difficult to decide.
For some reason this reminds me of that whole deep reinforcement learning / "policy" algorithms
>when major team-building activities revolve around drug consumption

Drinking something/taking a drug at an event doesn't make the entire event revolve around that. Just because an event takes place at a brewery doesn't mean that non-brewery-related discussion is not allowed. The same can be said about literally any personal preference you have.
Haskell is a ML-like, there is no direct genealogical relationship between Haskell and any of the lisps other than what was between ML and purely functional lisps (i.e. Scheme-likes).
There is nothing remarkable about that. Large problems require large entities to solve them, the kind of hole a country or state can dig itself into requires the next level up to dig it out again.

This is precisely why problems that affect the whole world are so hard to solve: we are not that well organized at that level, there are no sanctions for bad actors that are effective and with veto power and various power blocks not in alignment with each other the stage is set for a lot of misery.

It's not like we can appeal to the union of planets to bail us out.
The problem with the premise of the article is that it presupposes that a library’s interfaces will, and ultimately must, be complex. The great thing about TypeScript for library development, if you start with types, is that it strongly encourages you to create simpler and less flexible interfaces. That’s not to say you don’t sometimes need (or won’t sometimes choose) to use some of TypeScript’s more complex features. But a lot of the time you won’t, or should think seriously about whether your interfaces are becoming too complex.

Much of the complexity of TypeScript’s type system is a direct result of excessively dynamic interfaces in existing, untyped JavaScript. Starting with types is a good way to catch that early, rethink the interface, and either isolate it or avoid it entirely.

> The US allows more immigrants than any other country. What exactly is the criticism?

The system is unbelievably cruel. People die (or see their loved ones die) before they get greencards.

It is not a numbers game. If you can attract the best, you need to let them thrive instead of enslaving them.
Thanks! Adding this.
With the digital footprint these days, that might impede employment in the future in certain industries or sectors, especially if it’s tied to your name.
