Who is "we" and "them"? Don't you find it ironic, such a comment on a thread about protesting a regime which tries to control who does what?

The point is - while all of these systems are fuzzy at the edges, that is not a bug. Letting people reside in a few countries at the same time, and to pick a tax residency like a new winter jacket is a non-objective for the border, tax and residency systems.

It's actually relatively simple to follow the rules that lead you down the well estabilished residency paths if you do the opposite of what the article suggests and leave enough of a buffer for every required number, so you don't need to think about it and the precise count can be handwaved by the officials.

Conversly, if you try to minmax the rules, you might find that most important systems still have an arbitrary human decision maker, who simply decides whether to apply a complex ruleset to the letter, or to be lenient.


I'm curious how you managed to find nothing on lcamtuf. He's one of the most famous Polish hackers from the 90s, then one the best security researchers Google had. Even if you live under a rock, the substack has an "about" section. If it wasn't for Michał I'd probably be a farmer today.


I've got to admire Mason's chill in actually giving concrete replies to what are mostly ad-hominem attacks around this issue.


I dunno, my snarkometer is going off.

> Thanks for raising these 6 examples of sites publishing XML files. We can add it to the existing list of 357 sites

This feels like an email I'd get from HR. The point of the topic was the ease in finding those 6, not to discuss those 6 specifically. Maybe being direct pisses people off more than this corporate-styled language, though.


I think he's responding to the fact that someone felt the need to create a new issue instead of attaching the information to the existing issue. It makes managing the work more difficult.


The very first issue was locked and limited to collaborators.


It's also worth noting that mfreed7 of Chromium (the person who initiated the proposal) is not the one who came up with the 357 number; that was zcorpan of Mozilla ( https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/11523#issuecomment-320... ), so mfreed7 is talking about the list they got from zcorpan.


You’re saying a nice guy, who is not obligated to engage and chooses to, is not allowed to mock an intellectually dishonest issue?


No kidding, the entire thread seems to be "you don't know what you're doing and you haven't done any research," in the face of responses saying "correct, this is the beginning of the process, where we do the research."

Then some random tag on guy presumably after this hit HN "I like that it doesn't have ads," which has literally nothing to do with the issue, lol.


Kew Gardens are among the reasons why I haven't left London yet. Visit if you can.


I've volunteered at the Berkeley Herbarium and visited both the Brooklyn and Missouri Botanical Gardens.

My next stop has to be Kew Gardens!


British people are crazy about their gardening. And crazy good at it too (the climate helps).

After you do Kew, try Sissinghurst.

Kew also has an extension in Sussex, Wakefield, which is excellent and much less trafficked than the London site.

By the way, one of the best ways to reach Kew is by riverboat from Westminster. Really great way to see London.


The Chelsea Physic Gardens say they have a microclimate that supports more tropical plants. I enjoyed the other half of the garden more, where they explain where medicinal plants come from and what they're used for. There's a riverboat pier near there too.


RHS Wisley is also fantastic. Unfortunately slightly more difficult to get to; you really need to drive there.

Agreed about the riverboats. Tried the Thames clippers for the first time a few weeks ago. They're delightfully empty during weekdays and serve drinks and snacks on board.


I find this quote funny and on some another level of disconnect about what they are competing with:

> Not even Google ever printed 20k tshirts to give away for free.

For a couple of my university years I had nothing but free Google t-shirts. They were throwing so much of this crap around that my closet was halfway to 20k. I only lamented they never gave away Google trousers or briefs.

They have a fair shot at competing with Google on quality of search and they should focus on that. If they think they can complete on AI, email or swag - good luck, and I hope you have a good money printer.


For me, it boils down to the question of participation in a flawed but powerful system in a hope of leading to better outcomes, or its avoidance in the hope of its downfall. This is the same line of reasoning you can apply to political elections in almost any country.

I have no illusion of being irreplacable, or of the FAANG companies going down. Even if my departure would create a ripple, hiring is not, and will not ever be a problem. There is an endless supply of purely financially motivated and reasonably talented people. To leave would be to let a worse person fill my seat. Conversly, I get to work with a lot of honest people towards better things, in the scope we have control over. You can't fix everything, but often you can really make a difference on what's right in front of you.


It's a house, or a cottage specifically, in Polish. Fun fact is it uses ch digraph, which is for "unvoiced h" and how we spell both ch and h these days. Naming is hard.


QUIC is enabled by default for all domains across most major browsers: https://caniuse.com/http3

For Cloudflare HTTP/3 accounts for 28% of the traffic (https://radar.cloudflare.com/)


Changing network interfaces breaks connections and causes a new handshake. Browser session works at a different layer and doesn't prevent that.

QUIC actually lets you migrate between connections (because the packets are identified by a connection ID in each UDP packet rather than a 5-tuple). Clients will typically re-test a connection occasionally and downgrade as needed for this to work.
