No, they have not made a new law last week, but one of the highest courts has decided that this data should not be public (as the regulations stand, especially in relation to the GDPR). Nothing prevents the European Union institutions from updating the regulations on the subject.

...and this is what they seem to suggest in this paragraph, which is a clear reminder of this event:

> Member states should ensure that any natural or legal person that can demonstrate a legitimate interest has access to information held in the beneficial ownership registers, and such persons should include those journalists and civil society organisations that are connected with the prevention and combating of money laundering and terrorist financing.

You are looking for "3D Secure"; in Europe, it is required by regulation for all non-recurring online payments over 30 euros.

This excerpt is frightening:

> About half of the company's 500,000 servers run on outdated software that does not support basic security features such as encryption for stored data or regular security updates by vendors

Celeste was a big deal wayyyyy before the main character (and their main author) was officially characterized as trans, a year later after the game launched.

A lot of Europeans countries have protections in place, including mandatory weeks of notice and negociation, before any layoffs can happen.

Somehow, regulators are fine here with interpersonal discussion — including through electronic channels — still happening up to the last day of employment.

Doing so would be a textbook abuse of dominance, and would not fly to any antitrust regulator — I don't think they would try to implement that.

At some point, we'll have to talk about the fact that designers can't explain anything about their work (and/or the vision of their work) to other non-designers professionals without being particularly condescending.

The fact that we can notice this even in the startup sector speaks even louder.

You have quite a big typo, very visible, above the fold, in one of the biggest piece of content. It's a funny one, but a bit weird for a language-related product! (Quck -> Quick)

Let's note that this very concerning problem is only one if organizations take an allowlist approach to this "context aware authorization" requirement.

Detecting changes — and enforcing escalation in that case — can be enough, e.g. "You always uses Safari on macOS to connect to this restricted service, but now you are using Edge on Windows? Weird. Let's send an email to a relevant person / ask for a MFA confirmation or whatever."

In France, we had Motus [0], which is the same thing but with longer words — and it's actually an adaptation of Dutch version of Lingo! It ran on France 2 for 29 seasons and is widely known in French popular culture.

All the time. To be fair, it can be (a little bit) annoying at times too: typically when you have an earworm you can't get rid of, and loops in your head until you actually listen to some other music.

> an engine that has no developers anymore since last year

There are still more than a hundred developers working on Gecko.

May I suggest to @dang to update the title with something just a little bit more informative without much editorialization, like:

WireGuard Developer Response to "Great protocol, skip the Mac app" blogpost

I understand that it may improve "engagement" and reduce churn, but gosh I hate those "follow-up" emails.

For example, I'm currently trying out PagerDuty, and those pesky emails about "how to configure whatever you've already configured" are really annoying. At least, please take a few minutes to code something to check if your "beloved new customer" already have done what you are suggesting them to do.

My time is quite precious. Please don't waste it by suggesting things you can figure out I already know.

I don't understand why the US Constitution doesn't have a way to say that you can't hide something that is not remotely related to the subject of a bill into it.

We have that in the French Constitution and it's very useful to take down this kind of thing we call a "cavalier législatif".

I am more than happy to be able to access to healthcare, school, good infrastructure thanks to my taxes – but I'm European, so maybe it's more about how the US system uses your taxes instead of the taxes itself.

I would add the ResizeObserver to the list of legit APIs too. It solves a common problem that happen with some complex layouts, and it's very easy to use (and widely supported!).

> You can't publish something saying "do whatever you want" and then complain that people aren't being fair to you.

Well… you can complain. You just can't sue them. But the complaint would still be valid.

You can act like a jerk and follow all the laws at the same time, it's just that the consequences for you won't be identical.

> To resolve inequality we can't just have the mindset of punish the rich for creating wealth.

I would argue that millions (if not billions) are injected into corr^Wlobbying to make sure that we never fully have this mindset, indeed.

Meanwhile, the rich are way less taxed (proportionally) than the middle class, and in my opinion, that's a problem that stifle Western economies.

Lobbying? It makes sense to make your name resonate to European Commission employees (and MEPs and their collaborators, and European journalists) that live, travel or work there.

You are not alone there. I tried multiple times to understand what the author tries to convey, without being really sure to grasp it.

At first I thought that it was simply some advocacy for taking the time to route legacy content using 302, but it also seems to be some sub-domain trick with years…?

It's really confusing to me.

It seems that it will be free for open-source, public repositories, and quite pricy for private repositories.

"A member of our sales team will reach out to discuss details" is a great euphemism for "be ready to pay quite a few thousand bucks per year for this feature".

Having some thought about the GitPod folks[0] that provide nearly the same feature set.

I hope we are not witnessing a big sherlocking being done here, but… it really looks like one. :/

To be fair, some newspapers did checked the information (like Libération's fact-checking service, CheckNews.fr – so did NextINpact, that are quite specialised in those kind of governement overreach), but it wasn't clear if that kind of decision was part of a reasonable interpretation of the law by the minister.

The Conseil d’État clarified that it wasn't.

How isn't this textbook abuses of dominant position?

I'd just chime in to say that Rust-Analyzer is an awesome tool that really helped me as a Rust beginner. Having your text editor show the types of everything, highlighting the mistakes you made or suggesting functions right after you keypressed a dot is awesome to discover all the features Rust offers you as a developer.

Can’t wait for rust-analyzer to graduate as an even more fully featured LSP – it has the potential to really changes the daily life of thousands!

I would suggest you to take a look at Vue; you can use it without any transpiler or heavy toolchain, just adding a good ol' script tag in your headers and voilà. The getting started guide [1] is awesome and translated to a gazillion of languages, so it also helps :)

I recommand Vue to any Javascript beginner that want to add interactivity to their page without having to handle the DOM manipulation themselves.

Flutter took the approach of treating the screen as a blank canvas. Everything is drawn using Skia primitives, exposed as Dart libraries.

It has some downsides – they had to expose a lot of accessibility features on top of that using platform APIs – but it's quite nice when you are a developer, as you can Cmd-click on anything to learn how it is drawn, and use the same tools to build your own widgets if you need.

But is it? Doesn't look like one in hindsight.

I agree: this trick of saying that you are using Notion as a source of truth when you work at Notion had left a bitter aftertaste, on a product I should love overwise.
