Tags do not prevent someone from absconding - they could simply remove the tag and disappear, into those parts of society where people are able to live without paperwork.

The only reason tags work is because most petty or white-collar criminals have no interest in disappearing, and can be easily found if they do. They only serve to enforce bail conditions such as not going out in the evening.

You’re thinking of WAIS, I believe: <https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wide_area_informa...>
LA is a misleading because it does not have a proper downtown. LA downtown is effectively a block from Skidrow (US's worst drug addled neighborhood), which means most people never want to be seen anywhere near downtown LA. The next most downtowny/dense areas of LA are West Hollywood, Century City and Santa Monica. All 3 of which are very close to Beverly Hills.

To be honest, LA is such a nightmare of urban design, that no one issue can justify the complete and utter disaster that it is.

North-Brookline is 1 block from the densest neighborhood in Boston (BU, Fenway), but is lined with single family homes because of NIMBY housing policy. It is a dense suburb, but it has no business being a suburb 1 block from 2 of the country's biggest schools (BU,NEU), 1 block from the sports mecca of the nation (Fenway) and 1 block from the center of medical research in the entire world (Longwood).

Brookline gets to conveniently push its homeless out to Mass-n-cass and Packard's corner. They get to enforce increasingly ridiculous parking laws despite people needing to cross Brookline to get to other parts of Boston. They get all the benefits of the MBTA (B-Line, C-line), but refuse to make their own neighborhoods transit friendly [1]. They get access to cheaper-labor because the labor can make the commute from the more working class parts of Boston. When their ""cheap"" nannies have to access subsidized social services, it comes out the coffers of the city of Boston.

Now, I will admit that the city of Boston is pretty badly run, when compared to the neighboring Cambridge, Brookline, Newton & Somerville. But, that's besides my main point.

My hot-take is that cities should have some level of default jurisdiction over their entire metro area. Land-use around public transportation, pass-through rights for new-transit, etc.
> I looked at the software, it had two separate copies of the invoice calculation (separate for on screen and for printing to PDF). And of course it would send the invoice to the accounting software which calculated the invoice in a different way still.

In programming, an `int` perfectly represents the integers between INT_MIN and INT_MAX.

A `float` on the other hand, approximates the real numbers. It can perfectly represent exactly 0% of them.

Having control over the rounding behavior is meaningless - floats cannot correctly represent any non-contrived calculation. Exact representation is important in financial systems.

All that said... Free Software is just a great idea. Why would you not use an engine open to collaboration, an engine that's a public resource, an engine that could never truly pull the rug on you? An engine that can be forked, go in different directions, copied, redistributed.

Nah. The wheel of enlightenment has been set in motion and is beyond stoppable.

The issue I see is corporate involvement. They (corps) like free stuff too, and has helped enormously in the adoption (most code FLOSS on most servers, AND on most mobiles!). But corps has different agenda's than activist individuals, leading to BSD/Apache/etc over (A)(L)GPL(vX) and hosted opensource-derived services like what the cloud corps offer. Patents, non-copyleft-licensing and hosted are some big obstacles to the GNU/FSF end goals.

I thought the smallest unit in the US was the mill. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mill_(currency)

> https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/31/5101 says "United States money is expressed in dollars, dimes or tenths, cents or hundreths,[1] and mills or thousandths. A dime is a tenth of a dollar, a cent is a hundredth of a dollar, and a mill is a thousandth of a dollar."

> [1] So in original. Probably should be “hundredths,”.

About the only time you see values given in mills is with gas prices, like $4.999/gal, though often denoted as tenths of a cent. It's also indirectly used in property taxes.

If inflation averages 5% per year, a factor of 10^17 (what are the biggest USD notes actually in use?) is just over 800 years away, which is far enough that we might legitimately not have a moon any more let alone dollars.

If hyperinflation brings that date closer, the dollar will probably also stop being a global reserve. Or possibly: will be caused by it ceasing to be a global reserve.

> The Brexit Referendum was no more or less honest than any general election.

Sorry, no. It was profoundly* dishonest.

I have a leaflet that was dropped through my door talking about Turkey joining the EU as if it was something imminent and guaranteed (it is neither).

It featured a map that prominently suggested this was a gateway to all things nefarious by showing Turkey as a coloured region without a label, surrounded by Iraq and Syria, which were.

It's the single most dishonest thing I've seen in politics in my life.

* I'm actually not sorry. This claim is ludicrous.

I'm still not fully convinced that Unity's new pricing is unfair. The retroactive aspect of it is certainly troubling and I've seen some fair points about how policy implementation will likely be messy. Moving onto the pricing itself, I've only seen it brought up on a couple occasions that the actual stores these games are being sold on are taking a way larger cut in most cases then what Unity is asking for (For reference, Steam, Apple, and Playstation: 30%, Google: 15%, Epic and XBox: 12% -- please correct me if I'm wrong about any of these).

The flat pricing model will disproportionately effect cheap mobile games, which I suspect was on purpose. Even then, I hardly see this as a problem. Just scrolling through the top games on any mobile store, most of it looks like low quality crap produced by large companies that figured out a successful formula for virile games. The only empathetic party I can figure in this mess is indie mobile game developers, which seems like a pretty small category of Unity users, certainly not commensurate to all the huff people are making.

That is really not a contest.

And it does not matter if it is Brand. Actually, my thoughts go to other people (individual cases), people in our circuit, which have had careers and lives impacted at any level by allegations. We have seen "Oh sorry, somebody accused Known Professional KP of despicable things - don't worry, we employers will sever ties" in our very enlarged environment.

I was referring to the opposite side of things— not the security patches but the actual new features of iOS 17. Rather than being OS-level capabilities that feel like they would impact the whole ecosystem, they're more like app features, and a lot of the app features don't apply to me as I use alternatives to those specific apps.
I'd argue that it was less honest on the basis that the Leave side didn't have the equivalent of a general election manifesto. Cameron had his negotiated deal and Remain was continuity his government. But Leave didn't present any concrete document of what they wanted to happen next if we left, and if they had created such a document the referendum wouldn't have given them the power to put their plan into practice. The whole referendum design made it impossible for them to be honest IMO even if they wanted to.

The Scottish referendum in 2014 didn't have the same problem because the SNP campaigning for independence were in power in Scotland and had negotiated the referendum with the UK government.
Container Runtime Security – Why you should take a look at Falco
Falco is an open-source security tool. It is the last line of defense for your cloud infrastructure.

I appreciate your work much. I think it would really be a pleasant experience completing not only the Anmeldung but other things you provide on allaboutberlin.com.

From a pragmatic perspective this is the right thing to do. But I think people of Berlin should strive to abandon such bureaucracy completely.

Why not simply get rid of this and let the people do meaningful work?
See my other reply about Turkey being "set to join" the EU.

Turkey has never been "set to join" the EU. They'd like to join, sure.

There are significant criteria they would need to fill to join, and everyone knows they won't do it any time soon; they were going backwards on some at the time of the campaign and are arguably further back eight years on.

If Turkey met all the criteria they'd be a perfectly viable member of the EU. But then if I had the physiology, brains, feathers, gait and quack of a duck, I'd be a duck.

> land value tax ignores the value created by the physical infrastructure

LVT ignores the value created by the improvements on that piece of property. It does not ignore the value created by other land/improvements. If my neighbor makes an improvement to their land that makes my land have more value, that increase in value is subject to tax on my land. (Otherwise, the taxable value of land in a city would never increase.)

If I own the only subway station in a city, that's not particularly valuable. If someone else builds a second subway station and connects theirs to mine, the value of my land and the value of the land of my immediate abutters increases. If 40 other stations are built, that effect is further magnified. These physical improvements on other properties result in increases in the value of the land near subway stations, which in turn increases the value of the land of the subway station.
The problem with low-code platform is that you are always restricted and can't go beyond what they offer. And someday, you will run across a problem that you can never solve with that platform. But there is a better way to do it.

In my experience Anvil is the fastest way to develop a web apps. It is a framework that lets you do everything including Frontend, Backend and Database using just Python. I started using it when I was a total newbiew to programming and I am still using it.

You can check it out at https://anvil.works

It has a drag and drop designer so you can just drag a component, attach a python function to it and you are done! Even communicating with backend is as simple as calling a python function and passing data as parameters to it.

If you want, you can also implement HTML, CSS or Javascript in it. In fact, Anvil allows you to "steal" javascript apis for browser and implement them in python. You can integrate any javascript library like that.

This means you won't ever have to worry about being stuck.
This happened to us using Flowdock (a Slack competitor), they had a main DB failure, and when a new one was promoted the state was bad, and so "new" employees from another company started appearing in our organisation replacing our own employees, they could then read our private messages and access our rooms.

https://web.archive.org/web/20220704223244/https://flowdock-...

It was really hard for me to find a responsible from Flowdock/Broadcom/Rally Software/CA Technologies to report the leak, but in the end they killed the servers until they got the issues under control.

Because of this I mostly share encrypted files over chat, using OpenPGP, but the user experience is terrible for most :(

In olden times we would "print to PDF" as in have a little piece of code to format the document that would be sent to a printer which could be a PDF document.

In this particular case we had two separate pieces of code, one running on the client (for on screen presentation) and one on the backend (to create the PDF on a shared location and produce a download URL).
This matches my experience as well - in an enterprise environment when you already code .NET and people already use Powerapps, etc... why go looking for a new platform to integrate? Just keep using the platform you are already invested into.

I know. I was pointing out the app size since he said that it's 70mb, and that's absolutely not good compared to Unity (10-20mb).

To be fair I don't care about the app size either (Though once you reach a threshold, you'll have to care, since extra config is involved in the stores),
I just wanted to point across how much work you have to do in Unreal to reach what Unity does by default, and app size is just an easy unit to explain.

To add to the other answers: dimensions also appear in higher-order PDE: you typically go from an nth order 1-dimensional equation (an equation mentioning the n-th derivative of your unknown function) to an n-dimensional 1st order equation. There is a general pattern of adding parameters to have several simple problems instead of one complicated.
Also many types of operations could give you the wrong result from incorrect rounding. E.g. let's say you're calculating 10% of $1.01 ten times and adding the result together. The correct result is $1.01, but with your method you will get $1.00.
I'm not suggesting that at all... I am not suggesting anything.

> now we deny him work, the basic human rights?!

I don't believe any country guarantees a right to be given work.

> He is a public figure, he lives on being public, deny him that is like denying a doctor or an engineer the right to work

Yes, he's a public figure, but so what? No one is denying him a right to seek work, but equally organisations are free to decline to work with him.

Why should Brand have a right to millions of pounds of revenue from a Youtube channel? I don't.

You think if multiple credible witnesses accused a doctor of sexual abuse he should be free to carry on medical practice as long as he does it at a different hospital?
I wasn't aware the UK (or anyone for that matter) has been bombing Albania recently.
> Is there an example area where the UK actually is in a better situation thanks to Brexit, or has agreed a deal with anyone that's better than the previous situation?

No. The most you could claim is that we were a few weeks earlier with a vaccine than the rest of Europe, but then we'd have been developing our vaccine within an EU framework if we'd been in, so who knows what additional benefits that would have brought.
