Why is incarceration suddenly not an appropriate possible punishment for theft if it is done by someone in a suit. These are hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars being swindled from poor people. Not a single 5 cent mistake as y

By far the largest amount of cyclist deaths and injury are still caused by cars. The ebikes just get more news coverage because they're novel. But cars are heavier and go faster so will almost always be more dangerous to other cyclists

Electric bicycles basically solve the hill issue. Dutch people bike in any weather. We have a ton of terrible weather, both hot and cold but mostly wet. Our summer heat might not be very hot, but the summer heat is very humid, it feels hott

Most PHP apps use a deployment method where a symlink gets set to a directory with a new version of the code. Because of how opcache works this has no impact on running requests, while new requests get handled with the new code.

Bikes are small and fast, and only a small fraction of cars will need to turn here as this is a street going in to a neighborhood. The chances of multiple cars wanting to take this turn and there being a long stream of bikes that holds them

I'm sorry but anecdotal evidence is barely any evidence at all. I could list a very large number of news reports of cars ramming in to houses an businesses, which I can promise you are not built in a lane. Bike lanes and car lanes sho

You say this as if cars adhere to the rules given at all times. The difference is that bikes do it at their own peril and cars do it at the peril of others. Give cyclists good infrastructure separate from cars and they'll use it.

I briefly studied law in the Netherlands and it was used as an example. Our lecturer told us that if "A person on a bike would jump out of an airplane on a bike, land with a parachute on a highway and get hit by a car, just maybe would

Also having some iterative improvement instead of a large project (waterfall) seems to fit quite well for certain (software) engineering projects.

I see lots of folks in the comments assuming what would happen when you bike drunk, seemingly not ever having done so themselves or seen it. I live in a student city in the Netherlands (Groningen), where most students go out on the town by

Basically we can. Not everyone, but you can imagine someone that relied on it for their survival definitely could. In these races the horse gets to subtract hold time. Take a look at this interview for example where one of the racers explai

This is why security in depth is important. A simple DB user could have prevented this, and many other consequences from misconfiguration. This time it's docker, next time it's a broken private cloud setting or a compromised node

This isn't really comparing the results to other pentests, so I have a hard time seeing the use of this. I think almost any pentest will miss some/many security issues. And these issues look more like CTF style issues than real w

I think this should have "Show HN" in the title. For people looking for an open source PIM, https://www.akeneo.com/ is also worth considering.

I usually enjoy articles by Jacques, but this one has a different tone and I don't think I understand its point. Saying things like > hey should just shut up, sit in a corner and do their bloody job. seems unnecessarily blunt. And i

It means remove any data that identifies the individual. So saving data that is not identifying is fine, saving a record of there having been a request is also fine, saving identifying that is part of the request is not fine. There are also

PHP uses composer as a package manager, which is quite simple to use and very easy to install (it's a phar archive, basically an executable zip file). And frameworks like Laravel can be installed with a single composer command. This is

My opinion is that the GDPR over the long term, will hamper the ability of EU companies to do business on the world stage, even more than currently. But that's a completely different topic for another time. I would argue the opposit

Well, for example, one of the mentioned points is about sending PII to a 3rd party where the startup didn't read the 3rd party's privacy policy. So how would the startup be able to accurately present me with information on how my

That's because they're talking about a "Dutch design manual". Not a law. So obviously local governments won't implement this if it is prohibitively expensive. It's just a suggestion. 'inch-thick top coat&#

My Dutch law teacher explained it to me this way: "If you are in an airplane, with your bike, then parachute down to a highway and get hit by a car. The car might have a chance to not be liable, but probably still will be." The re
