I can imagine this being useful, but unlike Zed, this looks like it'll come with some fairly significant lock-in. Great for the investors, but it makes me hesitant...

And as far as delays go, I believe it is (or was, last I looked) nr 3 in the world, after Japan and Switzerland.

Of course, Japan's trains are world-class, but at least those are widely recognised as such. The Dutch rail network is much denser than Switzerlands, but catches a lot of flak.

(Which is not to say that it can't or shouldn't be improved, but it's also good to recognise what's going well.)

tl;dr

Atom can do < or & in titles, and offer both a summary and the full text.

Some podcast apps (Apple Podcasts) don't support Atom, so then plain RSS is better.

So it doesn't really matter that much.

The Super League was decidedly not UEFA's - UEFA even announced sanctions against the organisers (though I think those were repealed by a court), because it was going to compete with UEFA's leagues.

ASN Bank has a website that allows you to set a browser-linked code once, after verifying both your email address and phone number. You can then use that browser+code as the 2FA device. It's pretty neat.

Like every redesign I'm sure there will be many complaints, and yes, the tabs are still buttons, but this should please quite a few HN'ers, I think:

> You’ll notice (...) the return of Compact Mode

I'm pretty comfortable with Git, but I've still done this a number of times, and in my experience this situation is very evitable. After I've completed my gnarly process (whether successfully or unsuccessfully), I just delete the folder I don't want to use.

It's a super simple solution for which you can be certain that you have all the knowledge needed to perform the restore operation.

Laws are not perfectly moral, and future laws might be even less so. Same goes for governments - their power should not outweigh the governed's.

Isn't there upside to the US too if more Europeans visit the US?

It's not clear to me if this would allow access to all biometric data, or "just" to that of people crossing the US border?

And for the latter, what data are we talking about? If it's mostly fingerprints, don't those already get collected upon crossing the border? And can't they already be read from a passport's chip?

Mastodon.social is too big, but it is on a different scale: https://arewedecentralizedyet.online

(Though I do agree it's partially irrelevant, depending on what problem you're trying to solve.)

Doesn't Briar itself provide functionality to share the apk via Bluetooth? So you don't even need F-Droid (though it's still good to have regardless, of course).

I think something like "figuring out a way to stack the odds in your favour in a gameshow" would fit that bill, and that seems fairly innocuous to me.

Though full disclosure: I did that, so that might colour my view. https://vincenttunru.com/hacking-a-gameshow/

Sure, but I'm interested in a steelmanned explanation before judging.

It was the second reading, but was it also treated as such? (Because if so, it sounds like this would have been a rejection?) If not, what is the steelmanned reason for doing so?

I did get the first one straight away, so it's not too unclear, but it did induce a short moment of panic, which I'm not sure I'd categorise as fun :P

This is fun! Could use a short "how it works" blurb on the landing page though :)

Thanks. Do you know then why of the majority that voted against today, enough people voted in favour of the urgency procedure?

To understand whether/to what extent this is brazen, I'd be interested to learn the reasoning why urgency procedures are possible, and in particular, why the apparent majority against shouldn't have been enough, and what is needed to classify something as urgent.

I don't think it's just French. The million-billion distinction is different from English in many European languages - [1] lists basically every language other than English in the EU. And in my example, "actual" to mean "current" and "eventual" to mean "possibly" are at least also present in Dutch and sometimes used in that way in the EU.

Thanks! Although these, possibly with the exception of #2, sound like things that Zed handles, rather than the harness?

I was the same, but did end up switching due to features. I'm not sure I remember which sealed the deal, but I remember at least being able to remove/change the left-most button that just points to an About screen IIRC, and updating maps without going through the app store? And just the fact that improvements to Organic Maps also seem to make it to CoMaps, whereas I don't think they flow in the other direction.

No, but: https://github.com/streetcomplete/StreetComplete/issues/5421

Ah, I'd heard that latter one, but I thought that was just a mistake in the sense of "could of". TIL!

I think it's a bit quick to want that variant to be actual already, but eventual we might be able to make it work.

Not even the accents - different voices are annoying enough. When I was young I watched some cartoons in English, and hearing them in Dutch later, despite being my native language, was still uncomfortable.
