Ireland doesn't even want the 13 billion, because if it collects, it knows Apple will be looking for a new HQ and all the Apple jobs and payroll taxes and secondary economic activity will leave Ireland.

Really, Ireland helped US companies evade tax, but the EU is just codifying this unfair advantage of Irish tax law as "state aid". The EU made Ireland close the "Double Irish" arrangement in 2015 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_Irish_arrangement), this 13 billion is how much tax Apple avoided paying Ireland by using that structure, compared to having a normal company structure (sales in other EU member states -> revenue banked in Ireland)

The EU didn't outlaw software/IP licensing! Until it does, Apple can still say that Apple Ireland licenses e.g. Final Cut Pro to Apple Germany for 298 EUR, and Apple Germany sells a German customer a copy for 299 EUR, banking 1 EUR revenue in Germany and 298 EUR revenue in Ireland. That's why other member states don't get the money.

Well, NPR has one view. I posit another, substantial amounts of these crops are exported to water/land poor regions (Asia / ME). I view it more akin to exporting water than hay.

NPR:” But for much of the year, the region’s primary crops are alfalfa and other hay crops, which have one primary purpose: feeding beef and dairy cows in the U.S. and around the world”

1: amounts doubled from 2007 to 2017. ”US is the lead exporter, and exports are now greater than the equivalent of 17% of the alfalfa and 41% of the grass hays produced in the 7 western US states. “

Per this USDA report (2) looks like numbers peaked 2021-2022, good overview of who’s buying here.

Our hay exports have risen 2193% over 10 years to Saudi Arabia (3)

And not exactly related to my argument, but it’s not far off, here’s a fun number: exports of beef to China has gone up over the last 10 years by 593949% (4). Obviously cherry picked for the large number, but dannnggg.

If I were doing more research I’d be including soybeans and corn as well.

I’ll admit my views are in part due to living in AZ and driving through wonderful desert areas littered with alfalfa fields and other water intensive crops. Never made sense. (That and lawns, having a rock front yard was great. Oh and the multitude of world class golf courses.) At the time I was told a lot of those fields were owned by Saudis who exported it.

I think the "hard part" for people is keeping commits focused on just one change. Commits should be crafted to help reviewers, but what I see mostly is a bunch of random commits that look more like a backup of each days progress.
In middle school, we were read Homer's Odyssey, and were tasked with memorizing and reciting folk stories. As an adult, I read short stories and novellas to my wife. It's a valuable intellectual and creative muscle to exercise, along with silent reading and writing. It also helps with public speaking.
Mega corps have their own top-level domains. For example there're .apple, .google, .amazon, .youtube and probably some more I had forgotten.

Even when companies don't have their own top-level domain, they can have their own domain registrar. For example "facebook.com" is registered with "registrarsafe.com" as registrar. The latter registrar is a wholly owned subsidiary of Facebook. I learned this from this HN thread https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28751497
> I came to the conclusion a long time ago that what matters is the outcome, not the process.

I agree with you about half-way. The process of making the art isn't important. It's why songs that have amazed the world have taken anywhere between 7 hours and 7 years to produce. The outcome is informed by the life that produced it. To reiterate, the life that produced it is the most important. It's a connection to their humanity.

> I don't think gatekeeping art ever works - that's part of its fun!

You're also right, but this is primarily a dimension of taste. When I say AI has no place in art, what I am really getting at is it will have no place. I believe people will see it for what it is, and what it says about the people who use it.

"We are not doctors"

No, but I did hold a First Responder certification, which gives me some qualification to peruse and actually speak on the subject, as I have medical experience and training to some degree (and things like shattered bowels were something we had to deal with frequently due to motorcycle accidents, so we got training there.)

It's already known that antibiotics do all sorts of things other than kill pathogenic organisms in our bodies, well known. What isn't known is the full breadth of the harmful effects they have and how to remediate them. This is yet another effect discovered. More will come.

No, this is just about how much apple has been taxed under Irish law so all the back taxes would go to the Irish government

rapid7 for example use LLMs to analyze code and identify vulnerabilities such as SQL injection, XSS, and buffer overflows. Their platform can also identify vulnerabilities in third-party libraries and frameworks from what i can see
Are those the TPUs Google sells to consumers? I've been thinking of buying one & hooking it up to a Pi just to play around with LLMs or Stable Diffusion. But I didn't realize they were slower/worse than other options.
The author of an app wants their app only distribute through Play Store so they only offer it there. In addition they add a check that verifies that the app was indeed acquired through Play Store or else refuses to run. Am I missing something? What is the issue? Do we want to tell people how they have to distribute their apps? Nobody forced them to do this verification.
No that’s for all members of the tech guild which includes designers, engineers, etc of varying skill levels.

I wonder what the name is for the fallacies committed by this comment and grandparent comment. It's this disingenuous "even though nobody in this thread has expressed these two contradictory things, I'm just going to make them up and pretend that an imaginary member of [group that I don't like] said them".

It's like a strawman fallacy did a fusion dance with an ad-hominem. I see it all the time on HN - surely it has a name.

It’s not meaningless if you want to see women making at least as much as men regardless of the job and their skills. That’s the obvious implication of such statistics.
To be clear, that's because the country that represents that ccTLD has sovereignty over it. That's also why they can have arbitrary, unusual requirements on them.
Whose salaries, exactly? In most of the country, that's a couple months rent for an entire middle class family. I earn well, and I cannot imagine ever paying that much for any piece of software unless I needed it for a profit-making venture and the ROI was very obvious and very positive.

So often when traveling I find some app that is required to complete some menial task like recharging a public transport card, that is for some reason ONLY available in the app store of that country.

They could mandate a federal holiday for people so they can take time to vote in person. Some states have laws about a minimum allowable time some don’t. A federal holiday would make it uniform.

We claim voting is so important yet we can’t seem to be able to fix aspects of it that other, more resource constrained countries managed.
There's more complicated software involved in DC charging due to the much higher power levels, plus more complicated monitoring of the system. AC charging is much more straight forward and simple.
The megacorp that I work at requires us to surrender domain names payment that we own to a central authority who takes care of this in perpetuity. Any domain names we buy we also have to tell them about it. Your triple boss gets a good Stern talking to if you're not following these procedures.
In my suburban town of ~40,000 people, we share stories on our community Facebook group of going days without receiving mail and tracking packages stuck at our local post office that go undelivered for days. I call it "postal workers working from home".

I suspect the primary issue is that there are simply way less people willing to work as letter carriers. The pay has not scaled and you're working long hours, Monday through Saturday. Not exactly a dream job.
Well, the standard treatment is to ignore it. It's present in over a third of people and causes no symptoms.
I feel like these articles are just "tech company = bad" without recognizing that there are thousands of really smart people trying to create an equitable system that supports the needs of the drivers, passengers, and company.

1. Good wages for drivers means more drivers.

2. More drivers means better quality of service at lower cost for passengers.

3. Low cost and high quality service for passengers means more passengers.

4. More passengers means more rides and more money spent on platform.

More drivers and more passengers means more money for company. The argument that Uber/DD whatever is not incentivized to have high wages for drivers is ridiculous.

For VOLUMES defined in the Containerfile, Clace creates named volumes which are retained across container updates. This is useful for log files and any data volumes use by the container, including SQLite database files. If there is an app which starts multiple services within one container, that also can use the volume.

You can create a database container and pass the database details to Clace apps as params. Clace itself does not support creating database containers currently. The database has to be managed outside of Clace. The reverse proxy implemented by Clace is a HTTP proxy, it does not support proxying non HTTP protocols.

You could create an app with a small idle value like 10 for container.idle_shutdown_secs https://clace.io/docs/container/config/, default is 180. That way, for every API call, a container is started (unless one is already running) and then immediately shutdown, giving a serverless function type of experience. There is no way currently to ensure that parallel API calls each run in a separate container.
Their rights stop at that border, how they choose to distribute. They have no rights after that beyond the copy right.

Software is out of step with hardware at the moment but we do have principles that means "warranty void if removed" stickers are toothless decorations, and Keurig has no right to actually enforce their wishes about what coffee you brew in your machine. We don't currently have software analogs for those, but the principles hold the same.
The issue is that it's often not a conscious choice by the author. A lot of dubious features get bundled under 'play integrity', and since people tend to like words like security or integrity, they will just select that box (or it may even become the default). This creates a lock in for play services, google certification, etc., and locks out users of alternate operating systems and alternate stores.
Show HN: Simple Alternative to Complex Project Management for Freelancers
We're really happy to share EnkiTask.com with everyone — it's a simple and affordable project management tool we built as an alternative to the overly complicated options out there. Whether you’re managing a small team or juggling dynamic projects, EnkiTask is all about keeping things straightforward and easy to use.

The reason we decided to build EnkiTask.com was pretty simple: after trying a bunch of popular project management tools like Trello, Asana, and Jira, none of them really hit the mark for us. Some, like Trello, came close, but they still had drawbacks. Most of the others were either too complicated, packed with features we didn’t need, or had a clunky interface. And then there was the pricing — we didn’t want to get stuck paying monthly for team members who might only be active for a short time, especially since our team changes a lot. So, we built EnkiTask.com to keep things clean, simple, and easy to use, with flexible pricing that doesn’t penalize you for having a dynamic team.

Instead of locking users into monthly or yearly subscriptions, we decided to ditch recurring payments altogether. With EnkiTask, you can buy task packages for really small amounts, so you only pay for what you actually need, when you need it.

We’re not trying to create the next “super killer” software or anything like that. We built EnkiTask.com for ourselves, using it intensively to meet our own needs. After showing it to our friends and family, we received a lot of positive feedback, which motivated us to make it publicly available.

This is just our first version, and we’re constantly adding more functionality as add-ons, keeping the core features clean and easy to use.

Check it out and let us know your thoughts: https://enkitask.com
Most of it is because of Atlanta district. Palmetto is a major crisis that everyone is just ignoring. Prior to this year we never had much issues at all. Thousands of packages with maybe 1 missing because it was stolen after delivery. The problem now is all of our missed packages are sitting in a bin at palmetto indefinitely pushed into a corner. DeJoy needs to be fired but no one wants to do their job I guess.
The Coral TPUs have not been updated for several years. They were last updated long before the current LLM craze. They are good for simple things like object detection in photos.

They have almost nothing in common with Cloud TPUs.
One potential reason is that marketing teams often want to do things that are higher risk than you may want to do on your main application domain. For example, hosting content (possibly involving a CNAME pointing to a domain outside your control) on a third party platform. Using a framework that may be less secure and hardened than your main application (for example WordPress or drupal with a ton of plugins) using third party Javascript for analytics, etc.

Unfortunately even big open source project from likes of Google e.g Dart, Flutter etc use Medium for their tech blogs and announcements. I think engineers just write content and give to product marketing team who decide how to get it published and collect engagement numbers.

So it is less of technology worth sharing to marketing budget that need spending.
I think more solo developers should build chrome extensions.

Why? Because as a full-time developer wanting to do a side-project, you need to build what you can in a short time frame, with minimal maintenance, and without worrying about hosting costs.

And you actually want users and minimal marketing.

These are the smallest true solo dev projects you can build I think.

I’ve built 10 in the last year (mostly for fun) monetised one, and have a flagship extension I’ve just released that I expect to do well [0]

Ask me anything about chrome extension development!

Though that being said, API-only is also a good gig.

Can you confirm transactions there, though?

Many banks in the EU require a smartphone for that at this point (or a dedicated authentication device).

But instead of using actually secure technologies like Android’s protected confirmation (which couldn’t care less about running on a rooted phone, as it runs in a trusted HW enclave), they usually just settle for (often very spoofable) “root detection”. It’s quite sad.
The fact that everything is scoped for Ireland needs to be more clear, by stating this very fact at the very top or as part of the title.
Thank you...

> The Tech Guild, which won its union election by a landslide in March 2022, is negotiating its first contract. Times management has been dragging their feet in bargaining and attacking the Tech Guild every step of the way since workers first announced their intention to be a union in 2021.

> Among the major issues at stake for the Tech Guild is job security, which is under threat from the rise of AI and the company’s discriminatory practices around discipline and termination. Two-thirds of the members fired by New York Times management since the Times Tech Guild formed have been from underrepresented groups. Union members on visas have had their lives thrown into chaos when the company arbitrarily put their immigration status at risk. Members called out the Times for this practice in a reply-all email action in June.

> These actions by management are among the many reasons why Tech Guild members are fighting for “just cause” protections in their contract, an industry and labor standard which requires management to have a just and fair reason to discipline an employee. Times management is attempting to force tech workers to accept a carveout that undermines that standard of due process in the workplace and puts more of their colleagues in the line of fire.

> Correcting pay inequity is another critical strike issue. In June, the Tech Guild released its pay study which found that:

> Women, who make up 41% of the Tech Guild, earn 12% less on average than men

> Black women and Hispanic or Latina women, who make up just over 6 percent of the Tech Guild, make 33% less than white men in the unit

> Black workers, who make up 7 percent of the union, earn 26% less than white workers

> Pay inequity isn’t new at The Times. The Times Guild, which represents nearly 1,500 workers in the newsroom, advertising and other areas of the company, has also taken on pay inequity.

---

As far as I can see it is:

Slow negotiations

Job security: AI, discriminatory discipline and termination.

Pay equity within the tech workers (as part of a larger pay equity issue at The Times).

As described, this doesn't seem unreasonable.

I am not an [Android] app developer, so I know nothing about the details, but the subheading does not make it sound like this is something you can activate by accident, quite to the contrary, it sounds like a privilege if you are able to make use of this.

"Select Play Partners" can block unofficial installation of their apps.

I would however agree, if this gets bundled together with other features and you get forced to enable this if you want to make use of the other stuff in the bundle, that seems more problematic. Even then you could argue that it is up to Google to decide what kind of features they want to offer and bundle together, but given the market dominance I would be more open to the point of view that they should not be allowed to do whatever they want.
