As stated in the above post, there is nothing in election law that requires political parties be recognized in elections. Government does not need to acknowledge political parties on ballots nor is there a requirement to assist with running primaries & caucuses.

This doesn't run afoul of their free speech, Candidate A can still say they are buddies with Candidates B,C & D etc. But when people go to the polls, they shouldn't rely on gang colors to determine who to vote for. Names only.

Are people still using Pay Pal? They were never good when I did the slightest bit of business with them before and in fact they were so bad I decided never to use them again. Today I pay with Apple Pay, Venmo, Zelle, or God forbid one of the credit cards in my wallet.

Are merchant accounts so otherwise difficult to get ( Global Payments was dead easy ) that people are still resorting to Pay Pal only? Can someone help me understand how Pay Pay is even still relevant?

Ive been living without them for ... a decade? Maybe more? I'm fine over here.
There's a point where this needs to stop and we've clearly passed it.

The danger of filtering financial transactions through what is effectively a political-correctness proxy is that it inhibits the only practical means we have for peaceful social change.

Can you use PayPal to raise money for pro-life causes? For a political candidate who supports restricting transgender surgery for children? What about a news outlet that publishes out-of-mainstream opinions?

When the balance of power shifts in the United States, there will be backlash against things like this, and it's not going to be pretty.

I generally like this approach. Typically my workflow will be to prototype a feature, see where the existing API needs to be extended, and then carve out a two-PR sequence; I) refactor the code to make the new change easy, II) make the change.

One issue with just submitting the refactor PR on its own is it can be hard to tell if the refactor is sensible without seeing the new usage. I like stacked PRs for this case.

I’m finding at work with the mass reliance on AWS stuff that this skill is super necessary for a lot of code thee days, because if you have to wait 10 minutes for your code to deploy before you can see if it’s right, you need to be able to see bugs before you run it.

Isn't Venmo literally the same company as Paypal?
This isn't based on any principle other than a pretext for exercising their discretion, I wouldn't read too much into it. There's no underlying belief behind it. However, if you really have an objection, cryptocurrencies were literally invented to solve this specific problem.
From an outsider point of view, my gut agrees. I mean, wouldn't it be easier to start with the quantity of end product, and go from there (It is just arithmetic to convert anyway, but still, the amount of dough in the end is what you care about, right?).

But I'm sure there's a reason they do it this way instead, Surely we aren't the first ones to think of this obvious alternative. I believe historically flour was big economic concern for bakers, so maybe putting it in terms of the thing that makes the biggest dent in their budget was more convenient.
Venmo and Zelle use Plaid which grants them full access to your entire checking account history, even transactions completely unrelated to the payment service.

Do not use any service that uses Plaid.
Aren't your complaints the explicit goal of that date format? It's supposed to trip people up for a second to get them think about years with a different exponent on the floating-poibt/scientific-notation representation our brains fall into using pretty much all of the time. And that in this context there is no true 'appropriate' time besides maybe an emergency situation where understanding on a hard real time latency is paramount.

Basically you might have more success when your reasoning for stopping doesn't also coincide with why someone might be doing it in the first place.
If she didn't say anything like this, I guess I don't understand why you said you "fear" that this wouldn't be happening if Negraneau had made the same moves and had narrated precisely what cards he put his opponent on.

My sense is that the different reaction would be because of the narration, not the identity of the player (though it would also make sense that a player with a decade(s) long reputation would be given more deference than a newer player).
I wouldn't think either of those people exist, from anyone else's perspective.
You jumped to some conclusions.

OP said a lab accident. This could have been from an animal sample.

Everyone seems to conflate lab leak with lab manufacture (or jump further to purposeful leak).
> but are over 45K

The Kia EV6 is $41K and has > 300 mile range.

Leafs start at $28K ($20K after subsidy), but that is a lower range model.

I agree with the point you are making, but I think we are in the middle of the tipping point. Plenty of models exist at many price points. 100% are back ordered. All the manufacturers have to do at this point is scale their production lines.

Nissan and Kia are probably going to eat a few lunches in the mass market segment.
How much of this is "pass through" rules from federal regulators and laws?
whenever people tell me they don't understand the use for crypto, they don't seem to accept the explanation 'you use it to pay for things over the internet', and they'll point to alternatives, like Paypal. I'm glad that Paypal continues to vindicate crypto's necessity.

> And speakers show up to be shouted down.

That's right. It can be a political win for you when people don't let you speak. The audience wants to hear both sides. Anyone who acts censoriously comes off as afraid of words, as if words are violence. And that's the exact argument that many (but not all) protesters today are using, that words are violence. We can instead draw a distinction between words and violence in order to encourage civil discourse. When you don't do that, the majority naturally suppresses minority views.

> A kid name Xander, who I respected very much, said something very interesting. Paraphrasing: "All politicians should be challenged." So he agreed with the action, despite being a Bernie fan.

What happened with Bernie [1] was not as bad as other cases where violence occurred, but preventing a speaker from talking is still against free speech principles.

> I can't speak to what's happening in higher ed. And I really don't, truly don't care. All that drama is just performance art.

You don't think those protesters are genuinely expressing themselves?

I can understand how it's hard for some of them to see why blocking speakers is not a good idea. It is a bit similar to what the likes of MLK Jr. and John Lewis supported, direct action by standing in the way, as was done at the lunch counters. But I don't think either of those civil rights defenders would have supported the current movements that seek to displace speakers. They wanted their ideological opponents to speak so that they could respond with reason and win more followers.

Nonviolent direct action, in itself, is not a bad thing, but it's problematic when you use that method to prevent someone from speaking. Words are not violence, so speech should be acceptable. If it's not, then we need more speech to discover where the disconnect is. Free speech is an old idea, not a new one, and it's been proven to work. It takes some effort to understand, and I would argue that such challenging issues are the very ones worth taking the time to learn.

Since I agreed to this without bothering to read it, do the other services (Venmo, CashApp, Zelle, etc.) have similar provisions anyone knows of? (Apologies in advance for being too lazy to read the agreements myself. And yes, I'm a horrible person for not bothering to read them.)
It's ludicrous to claim that 3000$ of stimulus for a minority of the population disincentivizes workers. How long would 3k last you?
yeah my earlier mentions friend is also perplexed and puts it down to "people just not understanding how economics works". I'm inclined to agree... before trump I was beginning to see a picture of the world as being a lot less organized and professional than I was being led to believe.. Post Trump and I'm convinced that the world is and has always been an unhinged crazy town. I believe even less in conspiracy theory's than I used to (and I've always been a Occam's Razor sort of guy).

There is no truly organized world order with a great plan... (to borrow from the meme) we're all just a bunch of smooth brains trying to fool each other that we're part of the wrinkled brain elites.

Gold seems like a historically safe bet. thats as close to a plan as I'm going to get, otherwise yeah head down and keep on carrying on.

Venmo is owned by PayPal. PayPal is still the de-facto payment processor for online transactions where buyer/seller protections are desired/required.
That's just no DRM at all.

How else would you ensure universal compatibility? They'd have to also mandate a universal chip into all devices and it's fairly obvious why that'll never happen.

At least, we should hope not.

>Today I pay with... Venmo...

Heh, no you haven't, they own Venmo.

>Can someone help me understand how Pay Pay is even still relevant?

Because they're popular, and you're still their customer.
I believe the use of Plaid is optional for Venmo. Instead of Plaid, just choose the traditional method of a trial deposit.
You're reacting to his wife's statement, not facts.
Picking medical devices and warships is also quite the cherry picking. Most Linuxes aren't like that. Critical embedded systems tend to have a hard realtime component, and if Linux is on the system it sits under e.g. seL4, or on a different CPU.

At the end of the day, what Linux does is what Linus wants out of it. He's stated, often, that halting the CPU at the exact moment something goes wrong is not the goal. If your goal is to do that, you might not be able to use Linux. If your goal is to put Rust in the Linux kernel, you might have to let go of your goal.
So, it's clear from the text that it needs to be understood in the context of the PayPal User Agreement. I tracked that down assuming that it would limit PayPal's ability to charge you to their actual damages. But no, in fact the text is quite shocking:

> If you are a seller and receive funds for transactions that violate the Acceptable Use Policy, then in addition to being subject to the above actions you will be liable to PayPal for the amount of PayPal’s damages caused by your violation of the Acceptable Use Policy. You acknowledge and agree that $2,500.00 U.S. dollars per violation of the Acceptable Use Policy is presently a reasonable minimum estimate of PayPal’s actual damages - including, but not limited to, internal administrative costs incurred by PayPal to monitor and track violations, damage to PayPal’s brand and reputation, and penalties imposed upon PayPal by its business partners resulting from a user’s violation - considering all currently existing circumstances, including the relationship of the sum to the range of harm to PayPal that reasonably could be anticipated because, due to the nature of the violations of the Acceptable Use Policy, actual damages would be impractical or extremely difficult to calculate. PayPal may deduct such damages directly from any existing balance in any PayPal account you control. [emphasis is mine]

As I read this (not a lawyer) PayPal claims that any violation of their acceptable use policy will result in an a̶u̶t̶o̶m̶a̶t̶i̶c̶ charge of $2500 because that represents the "minimum estimate" of the damage your violation causes them.

On top of being completely a completely unacceptable policy, the idea that any violation costs them at least $2500 is complete fucking horseshit, if you'll pardon my explicitness. There is absolutely no way I would ever do business with PayPal as a seller under any circumstances, even if it was my customers' preferred method.

Indeed, I'm just clowning on them a bit to make a larger point. I do think it's important to make a distinction between "a single company can punish you for things they don't like, if you are their customer" and "broad social consensus that a single number represents your worthiness to interact with large swathes of services" - but we have both, already, in the US.
That policy is so vague and sprawling, they could literally use it to take money from Biden's account and it would stand in court.

Tesla has already lost the lead in sales. BYD (Chinese brand) took over for the lead for Plug-in EV sales this year. Tesla's has decreased over time and will likely continue to decrease. Kia and Ford aren't really in the picture (among top 5 sellers). Volkswagen, SAIC and Volvo are selling more EVs than Hyundai.

That's roughly my thinking on Toyota's strategy if we give them the benefit of the doubt. They want to own a larger piece of the ICE pie as it shrinks. This is a great strategy. What they might not appreciate is that the oil pie will also shrink and that both of these industries will have increasing costs across their entire supply chains as volumes diminish. Their vehicles will suffer for both ICE tech and gasoline propulsion and be completely outcompeted on cost and convenience. This will happen over a much shorter time frame than they expect.

Green solutions are part of the continuing decentralization through technology and will be just as popular in developing countries as in first world countries. One practical example of this is that green tech can be financed in bite-sized chunks, compared to the large commitments needed for power plants.
I agree that much of the time that is accurate. I think that it is helpful, however, to avoid jumping to that conclusion about any given codebase.

It's often a source of tension when someone joins a new team to have them racing in to fix all the "technical debt" whose origins the new engineer really doesn't understand. Little is gained by assuming that technical debt stemmed from bad engineers, and a lot can be lost if you misjudge.

Yes, but also, if you were taking payments over Paypal, good luck getting people to transfer fiat to ETH or BTC to send to you. I'd rather gamble that Paypal cares enough to look into my HN posts than trying to talk my friends into opening the multiple accounts needed to accept blockchain. I've already lost multiple BTC by forgetting my wallet password in the past, I'm not looking to go back.
Shopify pays out my app store sales via PayPal every two weeks.

I see vendors at local farmer's markets / craft shows / etc using PayPal's card reader to take credit cards in person.

Those that use a different brand of reader often still accept Venmo for payment, which is owned by PayPal.

I occasionally still use PayPal to pay if I'm shopping at a site I don't know if I should trust.
I don't know if this is a german thing but here we have giropay. The money is instantly in your normal bank account. You just need to insert your phone number in your banking app of your bank and someone else can send/receive money directly via the app of their own bank when you/they know their/your phone number, without companies like paypal etc. The biggest banks of germany support it and you probably don't need another account at some third party banking company.
Yea and it will have a range of ~50 miles if you’re lucky.
I disagree that technical debt should be viewed through the lens of code smells - those are specific, narrow concerns and if they are not burdensome then they do not constitute debt. There exists debt-ridden code with zero code smells (because its domain model is flat out wrong) and smelly code without debt (because it’s simply not of tangible impact).

Technical debt is, to me, usually half-finished work. Instead of completing the job, we accepted an 80% solution that is designed in such a way that makes the 100% solution impossible without a complete rewrite. Eventually new features always break something or take a year each. It is this drag on speed that is the interest on the debt - we pay it with our time, endlessly.
I still don't love those.

In my crazy personal web framework I went with "enticate" and "orize", just hacking the "auth" off the front. Unambiguous, and easy to keep straight, but probably not euphonious enough to ever catch on.
>Also, we've had credit scores for decades now.

Also, the reason why the social credit system is bad isn't that there's a record of your past bad behavior, it's that it's tied to vague violations like "spreading false rumors". Credit scores aren't perfect, but at least they're tied to a specific bad behavior (failing to pay back debt), and you can demand removal if the other side can't produce evidence of the debt.
Yes, but he’s applying the inverse here: asking me to assume that a non-Black coded name doesn’t refer to a Black person. That rests on the stereotype that most Black people have Black-coded names.
Yeah, if demand drastically dropped price would likely drop. The main point was that ICEs also have significant maintenance & energy costs. Sticking it out with gas doesn't mean you won't be facing thousands of dollars of additional costs over the life of the car.
I feel like I’m the only person who’s completely uninterested in investing in crypto, but at the same time hoping one succeeds at a significant level and does actually solve this problem.

That does not say anything about it being automatic. Just that $2,500 is a "reasonable minimum estimate" (which it obviously isn't), and that PayPal, at their discretion, may impose such a charge on you.

It's true, but the risk of that is fairly small. There were 60 publicly disclosed criticality accidents from 01945 to 01999 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticality_accident#Known_inc... causing a total of 21 deaths, though for some reason that list doesn't include Chernobyl, which killed 31 people directly and about 6000 people over the years.

But you aren't going to get a Chernobyl-style disaster from a criticality accident in a glovebox; Chernobyl happened inside a containment vessel that harnessed 3 gigawatts of thermal energy in normal operation, along with massive quantities of graphite moderator which caught fire and distributed radioactive material all across Europe.

Also, Los Alamos has a population of 13'200; the nearest city is 93 km away with about 930'000. Those people are very important but evacuating Los Alamos would not be nearly as difficult as evaluating Pripyat (population 49'360) — unless strict official controls on information dissemination delayed the news until it was too late, anyway.

Basically I think people are worried about nuclear fuel processing not because of its real dangers (which are significant but of a smaller order of magnitude than the dangers of fertilizer shipping, pesticide manufacture, and inadequate building codes in earthquake zones) but because of a well-justified belief that the government lies about them, along with the well-documented fact that nuclear energy was originally developed for mass killing.

Otherwise, I agree with plaid being bad.
