To everything else that’s a government creation for public benefit, that carves out special shields from liability and can potentially survive far longer than an actual person? And that’s wholly optional?

Yes to those things I would probably apply the same logic. Not the different logic you suggest. The same logic.

I've heard one reason the UK is so popular for European HQs is we can talk to India in the morning, Europe during the day, the East Coast in the afternoon and the West Coast as we sign off. Basically we cover the vast majority of the Western world plus the outsourcing giant that is India.

Thatcher left office in the early 90's, right? I remember it was sometime around the 2008 financial crash that the pound just started tanking and never recovered. Every subsequent crisis, the pound falls more vs the dollar/euro and never really recovers.

At least that's how it feels to me as someone that gets paid in pounds. Every year I feel like my money goes less and less far.

It took me 30 years to make this crucial improvement in Linux. In MSDOS current directory was in the $PATH by default.

Correction: Maybe it should be "export PATH=.:$PATH"? Local definitions override default ones.
> Like, there's all this purpose built accommodation in Dublin that's sitting empty because they want 3k euro for a two bed apartment.

Do you have evidence for this, or is it just something you believe? Last I heard, vacancy rates for REIT-owned build-to-lets in Dublin was _extremely_ low, with the exception of exactly one problem building which the media got very excited about a year or so back.
Anecdotally this is mostly correct, but I also have heard non tech people acknowledge how hard it is to get parts/repair the cars as a downside as well.
I disagree. The problem with Hertz is I primarily interact when them after flying. They’re always at some terribly inconvenient lot near the airport that takes a long time to get too.

Correct, pretty much anything fermented will have methanol if it has any pectin. Luckily the cure to methanol toxicity is ethanol so as long as the concentration is organic and not poisoned by industrial methanol, it’s perfectly safe.

The only drink you could theoretically get poisoned from is fermented orange juice but it’s pretty much unheard off outside of prohibition-era denaturing.
I didn’t think that centralization itself was the problem… just where the centralization was occurring (outside the EU).

A small attack like this isn't very damaging in itself. But if it triggers a response that spreads air defense thinner and draws resources to the rear, it can have huge secondary effects. One of the effects could be added restrictions on air traffic or even friendly fire on civil aircraft when they are mistaken for attack drones.

Russian strikes in all of Ukraine are a common occurrence; in my newspapers those get hardly even summarized anymore. Looks like such attacks will become more common on the Russian side as well.

It's an outlier in Germany as well. The municipal government in Munich tried to migrate to OSS around ~2004, but had to roll back after a couple of years. Most municipalities and government agencies would _like_ to utilize more OSS, but don't really have any concrete idea of how to proceed.

There are developers in every field who only work on trivial problems. I bet there are scientific programmers and quants and ML developers who never need more than loops in their work. Loops are powerful tools.

But it does you no credit to dismiss ‘web devs’ as more likely to be doing that kind of work. You know the web is full of hierarchies, right? Domain names, the DOM, JSON structures, file directories? And ‘web devs’ build complicated sites with navigation hierarchies and taxonomies and comment threads and team based permissions and complex data visualizations - because web devs build applications that model real world businesses and data all the time, and those things are complex and hierarchical and fractal.

Web devs have plenty of uses for recursion. Don’t be dismissive.

I understand how it can feel very daunting to figure out the right step, but there are tons of useful things to work on in this space. There is a huge amount of technological work going on, from academic research labs to commercial deployment. And there are also lots of people working on the policy and politics, which work is not actually primarily about doom-posting on social media.

But it still is hard, I get it, it's either time consuming on top of a "normal" job, or likely to be less lucrative as a career than most things the HN audience can do.

But it's not true that there's nothing people can do, if they want to.
A concern with Siri is it sends your voice data to a server to parse. When Siri is disabled, what data is collected via third party apps? I would imagine any time you use voice as a command in an app the iPhone send the data to a server to parse, even in third party apps. Is that the concern, or is it other data?

Is it legislation or the contract with the credit card? My understanding is the contract to take ie VISA has terms that you cannot apply a discount for customers using other payment methods (ie cash or someone else's card). There are a few places that don't have those terms (mostly government where often a card does cost more to use).

What people forget about these fees is a credit card is cheaper to take for the merchant. The credit card is never counterfeit money. The clerk never takes money from the credit cards, nor does the manager counting it (I wasn't in retail long but I saw both). You never have a robber come in to take your credit card money. Even when all goes well, you don't pay the clerk and manager by the hour to count all the cash twice. You do have some risk of taking a stolen credit card, but overall it is cheaper for the merchant to take credit cards and that savings should be what pays for the card costs (I have no idea how to count the different costs to see if that is true)

I have a tangentially related problem to this, which is that I recently bought a house from a guy that was purportedly some kind of intelligence officer. My new neighbors told me he was often going to “spy conventions.” In any event, the house has around 12 security cameras (that I’m aware of), and a crazy server room setup in the basement.

I’m a technical person, but the reality is that I’m only 90% sure I successfully transferred access to all of this stuff over to me. For the first couple weeks after moving in, we hadn’t even done that.

I’ve literally never looked at any of it. But knowing the kind of guy he was, there’s a part of me is honestly suspicious of not just the cameras, but also things like certain light fixtures. There’s even a clock we hate, hardwired into the wall, pointed directly at the master bedroom shower.

His potential access aside, I’ve said to my wife before that I don’t want our kids growing up feeling like they’re always being watched. Nefariously or not, even just the feeling of assuming that someone is watching has to have a profound impact on the way you develop.
That's census data, and their collection of data is... imperfect. A lot of those 'vacant' dwellings are one of:

* Occupants refused to engage with census taker (I used to have neighbours who did this; you can theoretically be fined for it but I don't think anyone ever has been)

* Home is in the middle of being sold

* Home is uninhabitable.

* Home is in the literal middle of nowhere.

I'd be in favour of measures to free up vacant housing (punitive tax on vacant housing etc; there _is_ a vacant home tax now but it's pretty small), but I wouldn't hold out much hope of getting a really meaningful amount of housing out of it.
To say that the EU has more regulation is not necessarily true. Let me give you an example. Suppose that i want to create a custom cellular device to control some process in the field. In the EU I pretty much just need to get a CE mark, whereas in the US, I need:
- FCC
- UL or ETL (now this is "voluntary" but if you deploy a non listed product in to some environements, you will be taking your company's life in your hands
- PTCRB - this is a cellular industry certification
- carrier approval for each carrier that i want to deploy on (verizon, etc)

Now some will rightly point out that there are faster ways of doing the above like using modules with modular certification, but you need to pay $$$ for this.

Folks don't see UL, PTCRB and carrier approvals as "regulations" because they are not government mandated. However, they are just as detrimental to innovation as anything that is driven by government.

As a developer of technology products, I also see more and more that US customers are terrified of custom hardware, or even anything physical - they just want to create cloud-based software systems that site in a datacenter that they do not own, running on virtual servers. They are often quite happy to give loads of margin over to folks selling and installing off-the-shelf hardware solutions that are often sub-optimal in terms of functionality, just so they can stay away from the scary physical stuff.
I feel like this doesn't capture what I want out of a custom helm chart.

I want the values.yaml to express business logic, like feature flags or external endpoint configuration, so that the Delivery team can easily read and update it.

The complex infrastructural components should derive from the business config and deploy the needed infrastructure to support it.

Still, I wish I had this tidy list of working kubernetes yaml templates years ago, when we started rolling our charts where I work.
I'm definitely checking out some of the resources to see if there is some cool parameter I can steal, thanks for sharing.
I'm following this thread and still don't understand what you think "enough" is. The person you are replying to makes sense to me.

This is just a fyi when trying to write out your thoughts.
The comments in this thread appear to overlook a crucial point. The business model of rental companies fundamentally revolves around earning more from vehicles than the depreciation costs incurred before resale. However, the recent price reductions by Tesla, coupled with the accelerated depreciation of electric vehicles (EVs) due to rapidly evolving technology and increasing competition, seem to clash with this business model.
In some of their other material, they go over this. Many of the bigger projects (not something like the two examples you picked, more like redoing intersections, making new roads, fixing highways, etc.) are financed by the state and federal governments, so they end up being able to keep their budget afloat as long as they get pulled up occasionally by the state/feds. This is still bad, mind you, which is why they're not wrong per se.
Yes, I hope the tech world gets very involved in this. Bitcoin is a horrible product for a cash replacement, since it is not private and the price fluctuates dramatically. We really should have a digital dollar or some gold, etc backed digital currency but it is absolutely essential that it is as or even more private than cash.

Typically you can use a webapp or find a paystation where you can use cash or a prepaid credit card.

If there are really no humans at all I would just park further or sometimes just park anyway and risk 1/3 chance I get a $20 ticket once in a while I can then pay online without an app. Sometimes paying occasional tickets instead of using the app can actually save you money.
They didn't say positive. I think they were thinking in terms of leverage.
Users should make their own opinions and evaluate what is the solution that best satisfies their requirements -- which in most cases should be to build it themselves (third party code is mostly a liability in software development).

It seems you want to force people to use your "one true way". That's not programming, that's a religion.
Granting a tax credit for something encourages that thing. So, from that perspective, I think it makes some sense to grant a tax credit for mortgage interest but not credit card debt.
I disagree that I've idealised them.

It's unclear what you mean by dissent. Before October 7th dissent was likely the majority political position in the Gaza strip, they weren't very popular. Suspected collaboration with the occupier or its affiliates has been dealt with harshly for sure, and to some extent this has hurt LGBTQ persons specifically since Israel likes to identify them and pressure them to become collaborators.

Hamas opposes the PA because they are collaborating with the occupier. The ikhwan movement is feared by regional dictatorships because it is relatively egalitarian, hence they designate them as a terrorist organisation. It's been decades since they stopped using political violence, IIRC they did before Hamas began using it.

Elections aren't often held in Palestine, so they can't often be anything at all. Abbas knows he'd be ousted if he called elections, so he won't. His buddies in Israel and the US also prefer that he stays in power, so they won't pressure him to call for elections either.

As for aid, it goes through Israel rather than the PA. Same goes for money, the palestinians aren't allowed to have their own currency or financial system. Israel enjoys having the ability to refuse to pay out taxes they collect, for example.

Israel routinely cuts water supply to the Gaza strip, and in the West Bank it forbids palestinians to collect rain water through a rather nasty bureaucratic regulation while at the same time destroying or stealing wells. Under such conditions it's somewhat reasonable to use infrastructure to try to get rid of the occupier, don't you think? What would you do?
Pulumi solves these problems for me, and it’s type-safe too.
And Israel is blameless in all this? They’ve done nothing wrong? Colonizing the West Bank is just fine? You can’t pull the shit they have and not expect splashback. They’ve put the Palestians in a cage, poked them with a stick, and now they act surprised when some of them lash out. I’m not going to defend Hamas’s actions, but what the hell can you expect? Shake a hornets nest and you’re going to get stung.

And if the cost of eliminating Hamas is killing innocent people, don’t you think that might radicalize some of the remaining people? This kind of shit hasn’t worked in the past, so why would it work now? They’re killing innocent people for no good reason.

Oy vey:

> Phenomenology is the philosophical study of objectivity and reality (more generally) as subjectively lived and experienced. It seeks to investigate the universal features of consciousness while avoiding assumptions about the external world, aiming to describe phenomena as they appear to the subject, and to explore the meaning and significance of the lived experiences.[1]

I find the target a bit strange. Like what's the point? A dormitory for workers in a factory? Why not hit the factory or a warehouse?

At least one of the drones hit when most of the people were already outside. The mayor of the town made a video where he is angry that 2 people were wounded, he could be lying but even if it killed 100s that won't delay shaheed/geran building much, no?

I’m pretty critical of contemporary US foreign policy along a number of axes: I don’t find there to be anything unpatriotic about acknowledging the shortcomings or decline of a set of institutions. Quite the contrary, reform is effectively impossible absent a recognition of a problem. I love my country, but it’s not in good health at the moment.

With that said, I think most everyone agrees that a chain of command exists, with its apex in duly constituted civilian authority, that authority substantially if not overwhelmingly mandated with the consent of the public.

We do this. We fall for the propaganda, we spend more time concerned with joining a small elite than throwing their worthless asses out in the cold. We vote for these people or fail to vote for others. We fail to speak up a little bit each and shift the entire burden on the few magnificent bastards who do take on city hall.

Anyone doing any “typical” amount of anything (including your humble commenter who is at or near the front of the queue on not doing enough relative to privilege) is at best not helping: the status quo is extremely bad and it exists because we lack either the clarity or courage to so much as boycott a big corporation, let alone an entrenched special interest, soft money capture ratchet.

The armed forces of the United States, with some exceptions notable enough to be scandals, are carrying out our collective agenda.

While not wrong don't forget that cash also has costs that are built into the system - there are a number of theft ways to lose money with cash that don't apply to cards. Even when everyone is honest there is the time cost to count all that cash. Somewhere between the two is mistakes in counting.

>Tesla which automatically routes via charging stations

That's only true in certain situations: longer trips with superchargers. If you are renting a Tesla for a trip across the country, you're probably golden. If you're renting it for bopping around a city, it's not going to work as you propose. Even if there's a convenient Supercharger, you're likely to be doing enough short trips that you never trigger it to hit a supercharger.

On longer trips though: the Supercharger experience has been exceptional.

For reference: I've had a Tesla since 2016. Just last weekend I was in "the big city" coming home, and turned on navigation and it told me "You don't have enough charge to make it", and I had to do "navigate to supercharger" instead.
