Yes, and those campaigns by public authorities have little to do with "capitalism", in fact they remind me of slogans in socialists countries.

In any case, they can be over the top and really annoying. In some stations they have presence detectors at the bottom and top of each flight of stairs so that as soon as someone passes through they are told to "hold the handrail and take care"... Which means that when walking from entrance to platform you may be told 4 times to "hold the handrail and take care".

At this point I just want to rip out the handrail and destroy the loudspeakers in a rage... But I am conflicted because TfL also keeps telling me that I should be kind [1], patient [2], and considerate to others [3], plus someone might report me [4]

Perhaps there is a reason Black Mirror is British.

Woah, no wonder Tesla owners are driving on bare tires, the official website says that you'd only need to replace them every 6 years [1]. Before we sold our Model X it would eat through tires, we'd have to replace them every 15k miles. Our other cars could keep tires for at least 30k.

From what I've read last week [0], the main problem is that there's not enough (qualified) candidates being hired, and current ATC employees are routinely working 6d x 10h weeks.

Stressed & overworked employees doesn't seem like a great solution to critical life/death situation either.

Maybe, but nobody has invaded the US or Western Europe for a while now.

I think the counterargument that I would mount is that what people want, or think what they want, isn't necessarily what is good for them. This is obviously a very dangerous line of thought - because it can justify all sorts of oppression - but I think it's nevertheless true.

>>I worked on a project that did this once and they very quickly got blocked writing a test by the in memory database not supporting a feature postgres had.

>Realism matters

It is often just a small subset of tests which have to be very expensive to build, maintain and run because of an external dependency that cannot be mocked. Mocks work for 95% of use cases and should be used even if it is not 100%.
Splitting things this way is also handy because you can avoid branches, rather than one big loop with lots of conditional branching you have many loops one for each set of elements represented by a branch. Except rather than having to untangle and manage that yourself the granular systems approach make it a more natural way to implement things.

Although probably once you're at that stage of optimizing gameplay code it's also probably time to write something specific for the problem rather than trying to fit it into a general purpose framework.
Poland was occupied / colonized almost continuously from the late 1700s to the 1990s. The idea that their imperial history before that had more of an effect on the modern person’s psyche is nonsense.
This period was a time of rebellion against the more authoritarian styles of government/society that existed in Western countries historically. I doubt that it's nostalgia for the 1960s that's driving modern conservativism. Perhaps any nostalgia for that period would be economic, in that it was still possible for a person (man) with one job to support a family and even own a house without much difficulty. Today, it seems like more of a struggle where people are working multiple jobs for decades to buy over-priced real estate. But modern conservatism doesn't seem to have any particular plan to go back to that kind of economy ... actually I'm not clear what it's actually trying to achieve.
The test should include players moving into the targets and not clicking on them. This way maybe just moving towards it wouldn't mean much.
I was born in Australia and live in Germany, and I think I see something of the same: in both countries, there is no sense of purpose, no raison d'etre. There is no national project beyond managing a series of externally-imposed and self-inflicted crises, and no obvious direction for the future to guide the decisions taken today.

So our politics (in both countries) becomes reactive and unanchored, solving whatever problem seems most pressing today, and ultimately devoid of meaning. What do individuals do in such an environment? They look after themselves, they partake in consumerism, they try to protect themselves against things the state can no longer be bothered to. It's all very nihilistic, and thus the deep anomie that seems to have infected most Western societies, and the younger generations most of all.

But in all seriousness, I think I underestimated just how much cats rely on smell at all times. I noticed yesterday that this plushy polyester bed is still strongly smelling like plastic mixed with some random pet store odors. This is likely not helping.

I will laundry it at 60 degrees Celsius as recommended, sprinkle some of his cat hair around it and then see if he finally accepts it. At the moment he still prefers sleep on (multiple) electronic devices and on the floor in the hallway between rooms (attacking anyone passing by).

I find this extremely true. Hungary has a neutral/good memory of Soviet times.

Despite oppression, people felt more safe, because there were clear guidelines to life in general. If you adhered to them, you had a boring and regulated life. Everyone had a job (it was mandatory to work), and most people could afford to own a holiday home in the countryside.

The "state" provided a life where you played along the rules and with minimum input you reaped maximum rewards. That's difficult to duplicate in a capitalistic scenario.

That is a part of the process I hadn't considered. I was looking at the incentive of participants to have their patents in the standard. But it makes total sense that everyone who will implement the standard (which tends to involve the participants) wants no surprises around patents.
And destroying ecosystems which are essential for our own species to survive is "we are well on our way to it".
I'm confused by this line of reasoning.

The point of the black box is that you have clearly defined the expected input and output and don't care about the implementation details of the thing sitting inside the box.

You can test both what you pass in to the black box and what you get out of it. And it's incredibly useful and important to do so. If you aren't testing third party libraries (or other dependencies) in this way, you're opening yourself up to a lot of unnecessary risk.

Those assumptions about your expected output are always there, whether you define and test them or not. So if for some reason the library changes its output unexpectedly and you aren't explicitly testing your assumptions, it can easily happen that you won't find out until it manifests in a production bug.

There are two fundamental types of interviews that have entirely different goals. One is the interview as entertainment and the other is interviewing someone to get important information about a specific thing on the public record. And the styles are very different. Sure, sometimes it's fun to listen to a random famous person reminisce for hours about random stuff that's happened to them in an unstructured way, but I don't really consider that an interview. Most of the time I'm not there to see the interviewer or the guest for their own sake, but to try to learn something about an important question.

To me a great interviewer is someone who can get to the heart of the issue at hand and elicit an interesting and enlightening answer to an important question as efficiently as possible, especially when it is a question person really doesn't want to answer. Sometimes it does take hours to get there and that is fine, but if you can get answers you are looking for in 15 minutes then there is not no need to waste anybodies time and just let your guest ramble about whatever is one their mind.

> Religion plays a significant role in influencing corruption levels [26,[29], [30], [31], [32], [33]]. While all religions encourage good moral conduct and ethical behavior, studies show that different religions are associated with varying levels of corruption. Notably, countries whose primary religions are hierarchical religions such as Catholic Christianity (Catholicism), Eastern Orthodox Christianity, and Islam, tend to have higher corruption levels, particularly in comparison to Protestant Christian countries [21,30,[34], [35], [36], [37]]. Supporting this claim, [30] found that corruption levels are lowest in countries with a Protestant majority and highest in countries with an Orthodox Christian majority.

I am going to be controversial for a hot second, and say that in many ways MySQL is a more advanced and better implemented database at its core. Disclaimer: as a developer I love and prefer Postgres. But I've been on many projects where MySQL won for ops-related reasons.

Postgres has a MVCC implementation that is recognized as inferior[0] to what MySQL and Oracle do, and requires dealing with vacuuming and all of its related problems.

Postgres has a process-based connection model that is recognized as less optimal than the thread-based one that MySQL has. There are ongoing efforts[1] to move Postgres to a thread-based model but it's recognized as a large and uncertain undertaking.

Other commenters have also explained the still very noticeable difference in replication support, the lack of query planner hints, the less intuitive local tooling.

One thing to keep in mind is that both databases keep evolving, and old prejudices won't take us far. Postgres is improving its performance and replication support with each release. MySQL 8.0 added atomic DDL and a new query planner (MariaDB did their own query planner rework in 11.0, widening their differences). Both are improving their observability. So the race is far from over. But I definitely wouldn't count MySQL out.

it may still not work, but try explaining using flashy analogies. For example, the internet without search algorithms is not the economic powerhouse we know it as today, and the quality of search made companies like google the giants they are. All this is because of the enormous economic impact good search has, say a user must make just 5 searches a day, but this turns into 20 because of poor search results, resulting in re-querying in an attempt to turn up the right result, multiply that wasted time by all employees and at face value you're costing yourself an enormous amount of money as a company, not to mention the compounding loss due to workflow interruption. With a graph or two you should be able to convince most of the fact good search = massive productivity gain.

The important part about breaking backward compatibility is allowing forward compatibility. Java is good in that regard, for each breaking change, you could still create a library that worked for Java N and Java N+1.

It is possible to have a network supporting IPv4 and IPv6. I don't think the speed of migration is an issue. It is not a tremendous success but it is not a failure either.

In Python forward compatibility was often impossible. The migration benefit was low and the cost was high. Python is a great example how not to break things. I am little surprised that whole language is still popular after such failure of leadership.
I can guarantee you that you're neither the only person, on HN or elsewhere, that "understands how free markets work" (if anyone can every truly fully understand a complex emergent system), nor are most people incapable of realising that hard work only pays off when you create value - it's just that for many people, hard work is the safest, and sometimes the only, way to get there.

Certainly accounting scandals are bad. I am sure there are shenanigans being done by quite a few Japanese companies.

That said, activist investors, the root cause, are a plague. Generally they want to boost short term profit at the expense of the longer-term. They are generally not interested in investing in the future rather cost cutting. Certainly most large companies could do with more efficient allocation of spending, but the US / western drive for short-term shareholder value is anathema to the good of the company longer term.
It's more complicated than that, you are ignoring some significant facts.

First of all, Poland, your example, has major human rights issues.

Even ignoring the LGBT issues (the so-called "lgbt free zones" in Poland), Poland has practically abolished abortion rights. Abortion has been denied to Ukrainian women refugees that were rape victims.

Amnesty International: Access to abortion was further limited. Criminal charges were used to curtail freedom of expression. The authorities continued to erode the independence of the judiciary. Freedom of peaceful assembly was restricted. Violations of LGBTI rights persisted.

Ironically under the Soviet Union Poland was one of the first Countries in the whole Europe (and probably the World) to have legal abortion, because communist countries did not have to please the Catholic Church (or any church).

Under Vladimir Lenin, the Soviet Union became the first modern state in legalizing abortions on request — the law was first introduced in the Russian SFSR in 1920

So there's that.

The second issue is nationalism, mainly far right nationalism, that spread throughout Europe from the former eastern block, that was once put under control by the Soviets.

AfD in Germany, Sweden Democrats in Sweden (despite the name they have roots in white nationalist and neo-Nazi parties), Geert Wilders and his Party for Freedom in the Netherlands, Giorgia Meloni and FdI in Italy, Vox in Spain etc. etc.

Look at Milošević for an example gone really bad, former leftist, he joined ranks with far-right nationalists extremists and things went south.

A very popular representative right now in Europe is Viktor Orbán in Hungary, who took a more moderate approach but is still a far-right conservative dictator-wannabe who's causing lots of troubles to the EU.

All of the aforementioned far-right parties in Europe are allied to, or close friends with, Orban.

Third: the so called Visegrád Group formed by Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia, has strong ties to Germany, which in turn means they sustain German economy by importing their goods (combined, they are the second largest export market for Germany) and vice versa.

Last, but not least, the EU has invested a lot of money in those Countries and sustained their economy to keep them in, even though their politics have raised more than an eyebrow.

So it's like the end of WW2, by looking at the numbers one could think that the war produced the economic growth in Europe, but it actually was the Marshall Plan.

p.s. Poland is far from being one of the 3 major economies in Europe

W3C is almost pure software. That is an area where patents shouldn't exist, and luckily an area where patents are not ubiquitous.

For things like WiFi, or 5G, there is a lot more room for 'real' patents. Because there is a lot more hardware/electronics design in there. Aswell as there being a culture that is much more accepting of patents which means a lot more of the design space is covered by patents.
As someone from the UK with a Hungarian partner - you pretty much nailed it.

The older members of her family look back with fondness on that period in time which sounds strange to someone from a western country but I can sort of understand it - some of it is just the nostalgia of youth but some of it is I think caused because the freedom to make choices comes with the requirement to live with your choices.

When the state keeps the safety rail up in where you live, where you work and how you spend your leisure time you have a clear path towards how to live your life - which is a comfortable if stifled existence.

That said, the younger diaspora have a different way of looking at the world - many left to move to other EU countries because they wanted to avoid that nostalgia.

That said I truly love visiting Hungary, the history, art and food is amazing, the people are warm and friendly and the countryside is staggeringly beautiful (as is the Balaton).

It's certainly on my list of places to suggest people visit.

Unify product analytics and financial metrics in one click
hackers,

I am launching my product soon and it's called Obsidian. What it does is that it helps founders (CXOs) unify product analytics (such as Google Analytics etc) and financial tools(such as Quickbooks, Xero, Sage, Stripe etc.) to automate reports and save time.

I used to use Google Looker Studio and then moved to Power BI and then to Google Sheets. I am building Obsidian because the learning curve of these platforms and time to make everything clean is too long.

I intend to apply to YC for next batch and would be grateful if you folks would like to be our early customers.

Feel free to let me know your thoughts and my email is anil@obsidianlaunch.co in case you wanted to connect
