- bn-usd-mistake parentBut aliases can be easily mapped back to your normal email address, unlike Apple's which are opaque. I, too, am afraid of vendor lock-in though. Sadly, couldn't find a good alternative yet
- Aren't you just confirming the parent that Nextcloud is the big, feature-rich behemoth like Github?
- Paper straws are horrible, I don't think they should be chosen as a counterexample to skepticism about biodegradable materials.
- Isn't Phoenix more like Django (rather than Flask) which would also generate multiple files?
- Encrypt password with a given key, send that to the server. Include the key in the `#fragment` of the URL to Share.
- Garmin still has training readiness, training status, training plans, suggested event-based workouts and much longer battery life which makes them work better for endurance (hobby) athletes.
On the other hand, Garmin UX is horrible and the watch faces are utterly ugly
(saying as former Apple Watch owner and now Garmin FR 965)
- It was the same for me in my previous apartment. I remember we were even amazed on how closely a plane was flying above the highway shortly before we took the exit towards the apartment when initially visiting, but didn't make the connection to how that would affect the apartment.
In the end, it wasn't a big problem, we got used to it quickly.
- A single `.` matches exactly one character. `..` matches exactly two characters (not more, not less).
- QR Code
- Any source for not being liable for income taxes at the time of receiving stocks? That seems like a very obvious gap (which is not present in many EU countries at least, here we are definitely liable for income tax when RSUs vest).
I thought the reason for delaying selling of stocks is to avoid capital gains tax, not income tax.
I did a quick google, and most sources seem to support that taxes are due at RSU vesting time, e.g.
> With RSUs, you are taxed when the shares are delivered, which is almost always at vesting. Your taxable income is the market value of the shares at vesting.

Why would this be different for the salaries of rich people? Isn't it more that they usually get large amounts of stocks at low prices if they stick with the company for a long time?
- I'm trying Hotwire for a personal project and have really been enjoying it so far, but it is very different from what I'm used to (more SPA-y frameworks like React + JSON API). My main fear is that I'm tying myself too much to Rails-specific libraries and that upgrades and migrations will be harder.
- Pretty sure that gp made a joke about the weather in UK
- Why? Should we apply the same logic to Linux? Why should we arbitrarily restrict user value because something costs money?
Isn’t the main problem that users are not willing to pay for the browser they use?
Google Chrome is probably maintained by much more than 12 people, so if we restrict Firefox to that, everyone is just going to move to Chrome anyways.
- It has much more than 4 functions when in landscape mode, including braces and powers
- Just want to clarify that German courts are allowed to issue European arrest warrants, just the prosecutors are not allowed to
- You’re talking about Fortnite Save the World which as far as I know still has loot boxes. Fortnite Battle Royale (i.e. the successful one that actually matters) never had loot boxes.
- The German "sonder" referred to in this branch of the conversation (i.e. meaning special) is not a word on its own but a prefix for other words [0] (remember that germans like to build words from multiple separate parts and words).
While "sonder" itself is a word, it means something different when used on its own (without) [1].

- I assume this is due to a web limitation: Discord has system-wide push to talk (I.e. system wide shortcut) only in the electron app, not in the PWA.
- It's 200 MPH, not KMH. Going ~320 KMH is not absolutely common on German roads
- It doesn't because Same-origin protects data on example.com, not on the embedding page (in your example). It is not a security measure that aims to prevent the issue mentioned by the grand parent post
- Same-origin is the other way around, it protects evilcorp.com from being called by non-https.com. So a simple CORS setup on evilcorp.com would indeed allow you to send all user data by MITMing non-https.com
- This is awesome! Please consider adding a license so we can self host it [2] Github has a helpful website [1] on choosing a license, I personally like MIT but it's your choice and there are plenty of options :)

- It was the same for me when I started my internship and now transitioned to full time. I found [Ashley Weston](https://ashleyweston.com/), who is according to herself a celebrity mens' wear stylist. She has a good set of essentials which I basically all bought (except for the suits due to monetary reasons) and I think this has really helped me.
I am not affiliated with her or whatever, just follow her advice myself and enjoy her content.
- No it's not. This is actually vim, just with some configuration and plugins. You are probably talking about [Spacemacs](http://spacemacs.org/)?
- Regarding realloc:
y = realloc(x, ...) if (y == null) { free(x); // Handle OOM situation } x = y; - Unless I misunderstood you, the government would know who I specifically voted for in your scheme? That would be a huge no-go!
- It is specified clearly though. The behavior is not compiler dependent, it's specified in the C++ Language standard. See http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/default_initializa... and http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/string/string/string/
If a different compiler breaks this behavior, it's not standard compliant and thus could do all sorts of stuff in every possible line, including in:
std::string pad = ""; - How do you handle the database in your git Repositories? I'm asking because I never found a good solution for Version control of Systems like Joomla and WordPress. Optimally I'd like to be able to install and Setup a plugin on my Dev machine, then push that to production, as I would do with, for example a Rails App.
- My dream is to migrate to the US eventually. Not so much for the incredibly better pay but just because it seems there's much more interesting stuff to work on there. I'm German and currently doing my Master of Computer Science in Germany.
Do you have any advice on which path would maximize my chance of getting a visa? Or possibly your personal success story?
So far, I will be doing an internship at one of the Big 4 and will be trying to get a job at the Big 4 in Europe or some other company in London (provided I can still migrate there post-Brexit) after my graduation. But I'd be glad to get other (possibly better) suggestions.
