Not really, only Agio Oros doesn't have roads. Well they do have a few dirt roads.

The rest do have roads, they collect enough tax to support the infrastructure, some even manage to build new infrastructure. Usually when the authorities build infrastructure, the politicians also steal part of the taxpayer funds to enrich themselves. That's one reason why tax evasion is a cultural thing. The others are welfare and pension (unrelated to contributivity) freeloaders. So it's mainly as a form of protest.
Thanks for your feedback. We're planning to re-do the search implementation completely as it needs a major overhaul to quickly search larger mailboxes.

We're constantly improving the service, for instance we've just added unlimited email addresses with your own domain (https://tuta.com/blog/summer-releases-2023) so always happy to hear feedback and how we can meet your needs!
Street dogs make other street dogs. They don't need new ones abandoned from their owners. Only sterile dogs don't make new ones which is what this sterilization campaign is about. New street dogs will come from homes and possibly from nearby countries.
> Commit and push often. Put a novel explaining yourself in the PR. And that's enough IMO.

Someone reading the git changelog 5 years down the line most likely wouldn't be able to find your "novel" in the PR and definitely won't appreciate if instead of a "novel" you ended up with a "short call" with the assigned reviewer explained what you actually did in your 50 "wip" commits.

Interesting, the Mac behavior of having different key combinations to switch between applications and windows of the same application is superior to me
If X is an easy problem, solving it "as quickly as possible" would be easy too.

The combination wont magically become a "hard problem", except if we take "as quickly as possible" to mean achieving some optimal solving time, as opposed to just casually meaning "without adding stupid bloat and by doing a KISS solution".
If I were to build the server myself I can setup my own ssh keys, ports.. etc on my linux machine. Whereas in AWS I find my self spending a whole day figuring out how to write aws roles for each resources, where to click to get somewhere... etc. So no. AWS is not developers friendly.

The obvious response to your middlebrow "if you're so smart, why didn't you make as much money as them?" dismissal is "if they're so smart, why are two of them in jail?" (ironically Neumann probably listened more to his lawyers than SBF because he wasn't such a high IQ nerd...). You can be intellectual and make decisions which are fucking stupid (in this case that applies more to the bagholders), just like you can be intellectual without the charisma, lack of scruples, connections or even ambition to pull off a multi-billion dollar real estate scam.
I think Cory Doctorow has an interesting counterpoint which is worth considering:

> When you look at how “IP” is used by firms, a very precise – albeit colloquial – meaning emerges:

> “IP is any law that I can invoke that allows me to control the conduct of my competitors, critics, and customers.”

> That is, in a world of uncertainty, where other people’s unpredictability can erode your profits, mire you in scandal, or even tank your business, “IP” is a means of forcing other people to arrange their affairs to suit your needs, even if that undermines their own needs.

Table tennis! The sport has so much depth, that you can keep learning/improving for a life-time. Whenever you think you now everything about it, there is something new to learn (spin, tactics, focus, psychology, bluffing, etc.). It's like a combination of fast-paced chess, poker and reaction testing.

That, also combined with other hobbies such as VR (Eleven VR), 3d printing (printing/designing table-tennis adapters for the VR controllers).
good good, i like seeing other companies copying the apple playbook.

maybe when the tech world gets enshittified enough we will finally start seeing some government regulation on these topics.
All true, but the end result is the same. We have crappier firmware because we can’t be trusted.

Taxes on short term rentals are generally consumption taxes and not income taxes. These are charged to Hotels in many places and in some cases they apply to AirBnBs. I have an AirBnB and am charged the same consumption taxes as a hotel in the same county. It’s fair from the perspective that Hilton and I are providing the same kind of service. AirBnB is on the hook to collect them because they’re the merchant collecting the overall fee. If I ran my own chain I’d be on the hook to collect the fee.
I also remember working with punch cards as a non-CS engineering major doing FORTRAN. Then in the middle of the course I discovered the timeshare terminals for another mainframe that had a link to the IBM 360 on which we submitted our jobs. All you had to do was create card images in the text files, including your computer money cards (worth their weight in gold) starting at column 7, etc., and then submit the job without having to wait in line at the card reader.

It was wonderful! No carrying around a card deck held together with multiple rubber bands. Of course Someone Official found out we were doing this, so for our last lab I had to punch cards out again.

Other tricks included submitting jobs to the 360 at the other campus, which took less money from your account, but was a little slower.
I would use it if it was free. And even if it was a payed service, It would be a 1 time thing so I don't see it as a good business model.
These are just fairly nonspecific symptoms, much like fever. The underlying mechanism matters.

You can get your heart racing by exercise and you can get your heart racing by drinking ten coffees in a row. I don't think the resulting changes in the organism will be precisely the same, otherwise people would just drink loads of coffee to get fit.

More likely, the observed effects like increased blood pressure are just downstream from some deeper metabolic events, and it is those deeper events that are decisive for your future health.

I'm a happy (non-German) mailbox.org customer. They are clearly committed to their core offerings and their pricing is fair.

I have previously also used Migadu, but I migrated to mailbox.org. Can't remember why exactly and looking at migadu.com again today, they seem to tick all the boxes for me when it comes to personal email. I remember they had a great UI in general, but in particular the settings UI was fantastic.

One difference between all other and WeWork is that while others were involved in some kind of fraud. WeWork wasn't fraud just pure hubris of founders and investors. Fraud is somewhat common and motive/modus understandable, here it is very difficult to empathise the thought process of all involved.

THere's another consequence of choosing DTP (and office suites as a positive consequence) over video production as a target market: at the launch of the product line, Steve Jobs chose the tradeoff of a high-resolution, square-pixel display, but only in B&W, over colour output formats that could only do high resolution with interlacing.

For better or for worse, though, compact Macs never increased from the original 512x342; for the price, I think successor Amigas easily ate the Macintosh's lunch in terms of graphical capabilities.

It's funny how the banks say the reason is that they must know their customers, but they clearly show they do not.

They probably know equaly bad the customers whis accounts they do not close.

Both banks and the banking regulation is a joke. They could certainly do some more manual verification of suspected cases to clear out the obvious mistakes, but they only care about the bottom line and to not be fined.
CDC also said:

https://web.archive.org/web/20210402002315/https://www.msnbc...

> And we have -- we can kind of almost see the end. We`re vaccinating so very fast, our data from the CDC today suggests, you know, that vaccinated people do not carry the virus, don`t get sick, and that it`s not just in the clinical trials but it`s also in real world data.

So, if you listened to CDC, you'd get vaccinated, grandma would get vaccinated, you'd go to grandma, and think you were safe, while infecting her with covid and in a few days/weeks killing her.

If you listened to a "local conspiracy nut", who was telling you that vaccines don't work, that there will be no herd immunity and that vaccines were causing heart issues, you'd be closer to reality than if you listened to the CDC director.

So, do you want a platform that lets all opinions, "correct" and "wrong", to stay there, or a platform that lets wrong 'facts' (because some authority told them they're facts) stay, while deleting true 'conspiracy theories'.

How many times can "authorities" (cdc, whoever) be wrong, and conspiracy theorists right, before we stop censoring the truth to protect the authorities?

> What if the wrong information could be dangerous to people's health? Do you bear some responsibility to ensure it is correct?

Like "if you get vaccinated, you won't get sick and spread it"? Fever and caughing? You're vaccinated right? It's just a cold, go to work, visit grandma, vaccinated people don't get covid, don't carry the virus. I mean.. you're advocating censorship for Bob Average from oregon while supporting the wrong and dangerous information from authorities.

You have obviously never been in Italy or possibly just as a tourist with no contact to the locals. Italian state is quite intrusive and very happy to extract some money from you, either in form of taxes or fees/fines.

Of course, Italians are also known for being rather creative, so the resulting arms race cannot end with a triumph of the government, but not for a lack of trying.
C&P from the other thread:

"So, further to recent changes at Gandi, I've just got some more info from support which I've included below. I've purchased domains from Gandi, pre-paying for multiple years of service such that some domains I have don't need renewing until 2027. When I purchased that service the offer was inclusive of 2 mailboxes for the duration of the contract, and now they're planning to remove those inclusive mailboxes and start charging me extra for them from next month.

To me, this sounds like a planned and fully intentional breach of contract."

Sorry, I was not aware that they changed. Currently I don't hold a domain with them. They were always a decent provider. This behavior seems very unfortunate.

Welfare is a small fraction of the value generated by labour. The vast majority of such value is appropriated by the owners of capital, as profits. They did no work yet they keep amounts much larger than your salary.

Why on Earth did people flag this? Indeed, you won't have a good time sending series of 50 "wip" commits to any kernel mailing list. Having a good split with proper commit messages and cover letter will both make your code much easier to understand for current reviewers and any future "code archeologist" who will have to fix bug in that code 10 years down the line.

Am I living in a bubble and all the glorified 500k TC FAANG devs from HN really routinely submit a changes consisting of a tangled mess of 50 "wip" commits for their code review without any repercussions?
eh, algebra and algorithms were invented by people there. Agreed with modern history though; certainly post European colonization something broke. Especially as the colonization hasn't ended yet.

Hi ArabicBaklava. truly saddened to read that. I would love to interview you and give a platform to your story that resonated a lot with me.

I've been unbanked for a while due to paperwork issues in France but thankfully didn't have any life-changing consequences like you.

I would love to present to the world your story. Can you e-mail me at lepenguin.stableunit@gmail.com

Thank you.

That's what actuarial tables are for. Assuming you're a 27 year old male living in the US, your chances of making it till you're 40 year old are around 97%. This number is based on population averages, so, if e.g. you don't do heavy drugs, your chances are way higher (given that overdose is a leading cause of death in young people).

> Oddly I purchased a Zyxel Wifi 6E AP with 6ghz, and it does let me operate in WPA3 and/or WPA3-Transition while letting things connect to 6ghz or 2.4/5ghz, which Cisco/Meraki simply does not allow, and from my understanding correct per spec.

If you do WiFi 6E you have to do WAP3 (SAE) and there is no backward compatibility to WPA2. You can do transition mode but only in 2.4/5Ghz bands, not 6Ghz band.
Of course, dead dogs and no dogs at all are better than alive dogs, which is to say that I stand by my point.

And no need to read the article as I've grown among stray dogs until relatively recently (as I'm from Eastern Europe), not the best thing ever but certainly preferable to having only us, humans, around.

Hard disagree with this one.

Summing all numbers from 1 to 100 is easy, summing 1 to a million is also easy, just time consuming. 1+2+3+4....

Coming up with (n*(1+n))/2 is not.
I have similar concerns about Bhutan. There might just come more across the borders.
I have the same thing, one weird connection I realized was: coffee. Apart from the stress of being a solopreneur, I noticed whenever I had coffee, I ended up being anxious/panicky later in the day.

It might be placebo, but since I stopped drinking coffee, I rarely have those intense feelings of anxiety.
Show HN: Go Array and Slice Visualizer
Hi! This is a small web app I made to explore the relationship between arrays and slices in Go. Probably mostly useful for beginners to Go :)

It gets a bit rough around the edges when you provide a custom capacity using index expressions but should work in most other cases.

I'm looking into adding some transitions/animations, I think it would be a good way to visualize loops for example, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.

Let me know what you think!
I think we're in agreement. I wasn't arguing for becoming a no-life who is giving 100% of his twenties and thirties to his career. I was just arguing against quitting a career and "running away with a circus" (going on a multi-year travel spree around the world etc.), under the assumption that one can settle into a career in their fourties.

Yes Italians cheat on taxes, but on the total Italy is the 6th country in the world in terms of GDP/tax ratio. To give you an idea, Italy is just a bit below Nordic countries. In fact, the Italian government is quite effective in collecting taxes.
In almost any industry and company, profits are vastly higher than any tax paid. If they weren't, the owners of capital wouldn't bother exploiting workers.
I'll try to apply this as I've been battling the problem of my job being too easy and never applying what I learnt in school.

There were so many interesting problems and theories in school that you never see as a regular developer, often I think that I have a job that any person could do with a few months of training (does this make me a narcissist? Is the complain here just that my job is unglamorous or is wasting your skills a legit concern?). I guess I haven't matured enough, or maybe I'm not really sold into the impact my company is making.
Yes. Brian also made a video about that plane (F-35B) earlier. They all have the title format "The Insane Engineering of.." Personally, I'm a big fan of the A-10 warthog video, and how it laid out the plane's main design goal: "how cheaply can we get a GAU-8 doing strafing runs over this 20km section of german airspace, where russian tanks may show up one day?"

The f-16 is more topical now, since it's more common, and is about to be deployed as a "cheap" plane to fight against russian planes. Like it was designed for in the first place.
It means "raspberry" in Arabic, and in Moroccan dialect at least it's slang for "good looking woman".

Though it does sound like "tota", which in Moroccan dialect again is the childish synonym for penis :))

I guess any short name is bound to have weird meanings in other languages!
Just note that fastmail‘s search is basically useless if you expect Gmail-like search (unless I am missing some sort of trick to get it working). The rest of Fastmail is excellent though.
That sounds wrong. We (and the border) have no idea who Apple is licensing their technology to. Sure it is easy to say “probably nobody” because they are incredibly isolationist but that won’t always be the case, in fact, it may currently not be the case.
It's the path of least resistance.

They are facing a lot of tax evasion from landlords. On the other hand, all the money flows through AirBnb so making AirBnb withhold tax is the simplest and most effective option from the government's point of view.
Yep, but newer versions of Microsoft Office up to 2010 are also known to be working. ;)

Without a general purpose (i.e. Turing complete) and sufficiently expressive programming language (i.e. providing an idiomatic and expressive manner to build general-purpose logic) associated to the ledger you cannot build scaling technology that inherits the self-custodial, permissionless, and censorship resistance qualities of the underlying ledger. Nor a financial system that inherits those same properties.

If you think about it you are very limited in what you can do. You have an asset that you can self-custody, exchange permissionlessly and without censorship which is good to fight what the original article is about. But you cannot build any financial product on top of it that would have those same properties. Nor be able to scale the transactions per second that the base layer does while keeping those same properties. And I find it very unlikely you can serve the entire world with 7 transactions per second. So yes, there is plenty to innovate on its core function.
The point wasn't that the shape was secret, it's that the shape was trade-marked, and so very easy for Nintendo to shut down anyone using it.
> It's super confusing due to all the lying, but actually that's the revisionist history. The real timeline goes like this:

Some call it "revisionist history" some call it gaslighting. It was the same with vaccines... get vaccinated, and you won't get it, herd immunity at X% vaccination rate, safe and effective, etc. ...and now? Slightly lower chance to die, but you can still infect and kill grandma, even if both of you are vaccinated.

Imagine seeing ads for a car, buying it, and getting something that doesn't drive, the radio doesn't work, and the car salesman saying "if it rains, you can still sit inside and it'll keep you dry". ...and then finding out, that everyon warning you about that got censored from everywhere.

Expecting not to have a subscription for a mobile app in 2023 is not realistic.

For an app to be available on the app store, even if no features are added, needs to be regularly maintained. That maintenance has a cost. If you want to have an application with no maintenance, just side load an app file and be done with it.
