That's am understandable perspective but wouldn't this more or less apply to any product any large company is selling as part of a bundle?

e.g. selling Word/Excel/PowerPoint together is hurting any start-up that might want to enter the document processing/spreadsheet/etc markets? Free browsers killed the entire market that was starting to appear in the 90s etc. etc.

Should office suites be banned? Should Adobe be only allowed to sell subscriptions/licenses for individual apps?

At the end of the day it should only matter if Microsoft's practices are hurting consumers rather than their competitors.
This is already the case for many people who fall for half-truth clickbait on a daily basis.

I agree it will get worse, but to suggest that this is a future problem is wrong.
I dunno, it’s pretty apt for Instagram, Twitter, etc. It is admittedly awful in many other situations, though.
Great timing for that app. I'm not looking for a job ATM, but if I were, I'd love to have the following features:
- European companies listed
- Flavours of remote positions. (e.g. Full Remote, Remote from the country only, Remote but requires a visa, etc.)
- It would be cool to have an email subscription for a certain filter. If something appears that fits my criteria, I get a notification

One thing I like about Otta (an app to help with jobs) is some details about the company, which helps to narrow down the list of options. You could load some details from glassdoor.

We're not speculating on what might happen tomorrow, just discussing hypotheticals for the scenario in which those companies were wanting to be partners of some kind.
>Curiously enough, Germany handles rules on abortion with an explicit law at the federal level, most other healthcare regulations being done at the state level. I wonder what the history there is. Perhaps it wasn't historically seen as particularly related to healthcare?

Going on a tangent here, but one reason is that the law predates both the federal states (in their current form) and healthcare regulations.

The relevant paragraph 218 StGB dates back to the creation of imperial law in the German Empire of 1871 and was later carried over by the successor states. Compulsory health insurance as a cornerstone of the federal healthcare system was mandated by Bismarck some 12 years later. (140 years ago, and some countries still dont have that, smh)

But you're also right in that it wasn't made in the context of healthcare, but is actually a (priviledged) case of homicide law - which is obviously federal.

It's got a quite interesting history really. I don't know how well this translates, but if you're curious, here's some in-depth info:

I don't really get why most the discussions here about the rape case. While very important to him personally, to us the rest of the world the implications of the WikiLeaks should be way more important, or am I wrong?
Not quite what I meant. GP was suggesting Assange's just desert. My counter to that, is that it couldn't be known if it was just for Assange to be forced into a plea bargain using extended incarceration as leverage, as Assange would not have been assessed by an properly instructed jury, which is the best (least worst) way we have of knowing if someone is guilty beyond reasonable doubt and in absence of bias that a military court might have.

> If not, we should delete the entire thread

TBF, I don't think 'I think Assange is guilty/not guilty' without any factual backup is really a worthwhile contribution to the discussion.
Agreed, this makes little sense to me.

Fundamentally there’s no such thing as a k8s “package”. OLM is great for packaging operators, but I don’t see why we need yet another Helm.

It was a mistake that shouldn’t be repeated.
Unfortunately because you're not a customer, they'll never stop.

Often times they won't stop even if you are a customer as in the case of Microsoft insisting that I backup all my files to their OneDrive that came bundled with Office. I get constant nag notifications to "finish setting up backup" even though I have alternative backup solutions and only want to use OneDrive as an offsite storage, not as a sync system.

I would love to tell the software to "never bug me again", but instead we only have options of "Yes!" and "Not now, please bother me again".
The September issue aside, 20€/mo seems pretty reasonable depending on how often you can go. Especially if there is a coach involved. Typical gyms in my area are about $20/mo just to access the machines and weights. Specialized gyms like Crossfit are all >$100/mo.

Rogue to Victim: What Australia Sees in Julian Assange
Not quite sure what part you disagree with, but indeed that's more or less what's happening. Though also the fact that it's a finite number of pieces is important.
But certainly a causal factor in a plea deal being reached. Without the extended incarceration (and the threat of prolonging it) there would have been little leverage to get Julian to sign the dotted line.
I don't remember seeing it any more for a very long time. Yeah, it felt like scam.

Carbs are one aspect of diet. There's very little actual nutrition in any of those things.

There are interesting things to say about this schism but this is just another pearl-clutching polemic and an intellectually dishonest one with all the usual clichés. They aren’t real feminists. They are political and we are not. The queers are coming for your children. They are destroying the foundations of Western liberal intellectual culture. They don’t understand poststructuralism and they don’t know what they are talking about because it doesn’t make sense. They are mean and nasty and privileged and insecure and we are poor and innocent and authentic. And in peak irony, they are the ones cynically seeking to transgress for attention while we are committed to academic integrity and ‘genuine insight’.

Is Microsoft making billions from Teams? I assume they only made it to enhance the value of their office suite/subscription.

It's a bit like saying that that them bundling PowerPoint together with their other apps is unfair towards any startup potentially wanting to enter that market. Which very well might be true but what's so special about Teams? MS and other companies have been bundling apps together since forever...

While it is true that pharma does not earn money if you do not need drugs, I would not blame them for not forcing people into gyms.

Unlike the food industry which directly causes the issue by pushing addictive and unhealthy food, I suspect the underlying problem with treatment vs. prevention is in culture and mentally.

You need to convince people to spend a significant portion of time exercising and eating healthy when they do not yet have issues in order to prevent future issues, taking time away from other, more entertaining things. Even with a goal, exercise is hard work. Treatment on the other hand rarely requires significant effort, and once it is needed it is no longer something you can ignore and postpone like you could with prevention.

At the same time, many conditions which pharma develops treatment for are not fixed with exercise.

Thanks. I guess that's the '27 August 2010' update in that document - is there more to read on it somewhere?

The doc I linked suggested it was the police who modified SW's statement, which triggered the re-evaluation of the case.

"AA took SW to a police station, so SW could enquire whether she could force Assange to take an HIV-test. There, they were questioned together by an investigating officer who knew AA personally and ran on the same political party ticket as AA in the general elections three weeks later. When superior investigators insisted on registering SW’s enquiry as a report of “rape” and to immediately issue an arrest warrant against Assange, SW reportedly refused to sign her statement and became so emotionally distraught that the questioning had to be suspended. While at the police station, SW even texted that she “did not want to put any charges on Julian Assange” but that “the police were keen on getting their hands on him” (14:26); and that she was “chocked (sic shocked) when they arrested him” because she “only wanted him to take a test” (17:06). Once Chief Prosecutor Finné had intervened and closed the case, it reportedly was again the police (not SW) who “revised” her statement lodged in the police system to better fit the crime of “rape” before it was resubmitted by a third Social Democrat politician to a different prosecutor who was prepared to re-open the case."
>>>>Is there a market-based solution to this? And if so, what would it look like? Tax breaks for gyms? More lobbying from Big gym?

Using your point, how would lobbying from big gym be able to compete with the dominate interests of pharm and medical.

The desire to work out comes down to the self determination of the person and I don’t think there is any product that is a substitute or replacement for that.

You don’t need a fancy gym to get rigorous exercise. You can do everything in your home. Walking, running, Push ups, sit ups, squats, dips, are free and easily accessible to do anywhere. biking, swimming, and pull-ups are less accesible but are also relatively easy and cheap, these also are the best exercises one can do to avoid injury.

I would say building more bike roads, walkable spaces, outdoor exercise areas, and emphasize these things early in schooling are the best and most effective. I’m sure it is emphasized highly in Europe where people are generally more in shape.

> At the end of the day it should only matter if Microsoft's practices are hurting consumers rather than their competitors.

On the one hand that's a broadly reasonable goal, however the point of having laws preventing anti-competitive behaviour is founded in the logic that one company unfairly preventing there being competition from other companies is in itself a form of consumer harm due to the fact that it both prevents consumers from having choice, and also therefore in the longer term allows the monopolistic company to raise prices without consumers having any option other than to pay more or go without.

So in reality the harming or competitors can be considered the harming of consumers.

I am also a fit person. When I hear someone tell me that they don't have time for doing exercise I do not respond, I just listen and watch. I almost always will see the same person in the next days watching TV, or social media or playing video games for hours.

I do minimal high intensity exercise every single day, it is just routine, because I am busy. Everyone can learn that. In fact I see the biggest number of betting shops in the poorest part of the cities as they are more vulnerable to learning bad habits, as companies are eager to teach those as it is great business.

Where exactly is the nuance in this?

I pity the smoker more because they don’t have to smoke but feel compelled to smoke through addiction.

You have direct control over how many calories you consume and it’s a basic human instinct to eat.

Saying there’s nuanced steps inbetween is just a way to hand wave away someone’s laziness to not tackle the problem.

Yeah, there are studies that show that eating less is much more effective than exercising more for losing weight.

There are other studies that show quite often the most effective way to eat less is to fast every now and again. And that's because if you're trying to diet by eating a small meal, your stomach/brain is going to be yelling at you all the time that you're hungry and you should eat some more, but if you fast, after 16 hours or so that urgency goes away and you stop feeling as hungry. Fasting sounds a lot more scary than it actually is. The record fast length is 382 days [0].

Car companies centrally develop platforms, but those platforms include a lot of third party components. It's not so strange as it sounds, just like motherboard manufacturers shipping boards with tons of third party chips.

> undercut pricing and kill competition

Yeah but nobody minded not having to pay for web browsers, file manager, antivirus software and bunch of other stuff.

Companies have been bundling their different software products together since almost forever and while there are some disadvantages arguable this has benefited consumers overall. At least I wouldn't be too glad about having to buy separate licenses (or pay separate subscriptions) for Excel, Word and PowerPoint (or any other product bundle like Jetbrains IDEs for every language etc. etc.).

Most people would also not rather get a non-functional barebones OS whenever they get a new PC and have to chose and install all the basic apps themselves.

Ok, it seems it's not the original, but instead a copy Szilard kept for himself. The original is still at the museum in Hyde Park.

"...Szilard kept his version of Einstein’s letter for the rest of his life; his heirs later sold it off. In 2002, publisher and collector Malcolm S. Forbes caused a stir when he auctioned off the letter for $2.1 million—a sum that reset the record at the time for anything connected to Einstein or Roosevelt and the first 20th-century historical document to top $1 million.
The letter’s winning bidder was Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, whose estate is reselling the document now..."
I get that it’s Jeff, but why is this on the homepage?

Silly to think this is relevant at all to HN.
it's a luxury that modern life affords us. Traditionally boys would go into what their father has done, as he did his father and his father before him. It’s only relatively recently that society affords children an opportunity to branch out from the circumstances of our birth. The idea of royal succession seems less weird when the rest of the whole world is also organized that way

Seems to me Kanban is tool, visual based. Scrum is a methodology.

Ultimately, it's about the team, education, the culture, and a unified agreement on producing good product.

The sad part is, with them down ranking http only sites, and with all the spam farms, going 10+ "pages" in, eg 100+ links, used to be an easy way to get to real results.

Then they added infinite scrolling, and oh well!

They should add a "this site hasn't changed in a decade" or "only give http results" for people searching for older stuff.

Google takes these weird stances, like making it impossible to find legacy sites (http sites) because they want to push encryption (fine, but don't hurt users!).

Or refusing to add zoom + reflow on chrome (super simple to do, just use a virtual dpi), showing how little they care about those with vision issues, or the aged. Why? Repeatedly they've stated it is to "punish" sites not updating for mobile.

Well, even mobile sites are hard to see for some. What a ridiculous, absurd, stupid response.

The only people they are punishing is the sight impaired, or the aged. Thanks Google.

However, this is an interesting problem. By nature of competition, every customer a competitor takes is a customer missed. So when is competition anti-competive?

Indeed, the software I worked on here in my home state back when I was interested in long term investment is still about today, 14+ years back it was broken into parts and sold on, here's one section, now run more or less "as was" by S&P

Our clients way back when were mostly all billionaires, some personal, some corporate; between client discussions, GIS data linking, trends, etc we were able to get a line on a bunch of penny stocks that were selling then ( ~2003 ) for 2c (AU) and now trade at $20+ each.
