This has been the case since I moved to Germany, 6 years ago. National humiliation is apparently an insufficient detterent.


The millstones of the gods grind late, but they grind well. It depends where you're from -- there is always potential for dramatic change in a people as obedient as the German.


It really depends on the implementation? From my understanding, WebRTC uses it to broker the connection and nothing more. Then it's p2p


The "The Traditional Way" section of the article covers the shortcomings of the WebRTC approach (i.e. ICE) and why it does not always result in a P2P session forming/the TURN server leaving the picture.

The tldr is having a TURN server enables more hole-punching methods to be attempted, but that's not the same thing as a guarantee the session will succeed in switching to P2P.


136 males? Fooled by randomness


Unsure what either of those have to do with this law


Hamburger is somewhat traditional food. So it makes sense to be regulated as such - to not be able to name any crap hamburger, but only specific crap hamburger. One that is beef patty inside a bun. Having a animal derived patty by grinding is essential part of some item being called hamburger.


I realize this may be satire (Poe's law and all). But I disagree 'hamburger' should get protected status, in anything except the exact quotation without clear prefix/suffix. "Vegetarian Hamburger" (in near-equal font pt) should be fine, Veggie-burger shouldn't even be up for debate imo.

If fine-print is confusing consumers maybe we should improve our labeling standards rather than protecting a food category not in need of protection.


I think that's reasonable regarding expectations, but the flip side is you can't make a vegan patty and call it 'vegan burger like patty'. The discussed regulation smells heavily of measures to protect the meat industry rather than the consumer who is absolutely able to discern between the classic and vegetarian alternatives.


How will it protect farmers? This won't change consumer habits one bit.


Why not? Consumers are more likely to give vegetarian products a chance when they are 'drop in' replacements. A 'vegetarian burger' instead of a 'burger' would sell better than a 'plant based patty'.


But plants also come from farms...


Cattle is more profitable.


Feel free to protect 'Hamburg-style Steak', but protecting 'burger' is stupid. Also very odd coincidence that the rise of vegetarian/vegan alternatives prompts the reaction, when nobody batted an eye at 'fish burger' or 'chicken burger'. I suppose that anything which promotes not murdering innocent animals is bad.


When i buy a hamburger in the supermarket i dont get a bun. So clearly the thing i buy shouldnt be called a hamburger.


Also, its made from beef, why is it called HAMburger?! /s


But is it truly a hamburger if it's not from Hamburg?


WASM runs in the browser which is why it receives so much consideration (rightfully so).


Yes, but I am more concerned with server-side, where you need to do a bit more and with better performance.


Personally, I think that's a good idea. Design patterns naturally make sense (Visitor, Builder for e.g) once you encounter such a situation in your codebase. It almost makes complete sense then. Otherwise IMHO, it's just premature abstraction


No one is satisfied with premature abstraction :(


Honest question: what's the fun in travel if you remove all uncertainty?


The way we plan is a good mix. We leave no uncertainty when it comes to hotel rooms/AirBnBs and train/plane tickets.

For a family of four in peak season, I don’t see any appeal to not knowing where we’d sleep at night and not having that already reserved.

But within a particular destination (say we’re in X city or region for 5 days) we totally play it by ear.

That includes “let’s check out this book store and coffee shop” or “let’s rent bikes today and ride around”

It’s a good balance.


Try traveling as a family of four neurotics each of them prioritizing certain predictable parameters of the environment for comfort.

The answer: you actually can enjoy travel.

Or - a predictable framework allows space for spontaneous exploration.


Different people like different things about travel.

For instance, some might just want to relax in an environment far from their default, with the whole thing 100% planned so they don’t have any unnecessary stressors.


How is one supposed to context switch between reading a book and rigorously understanding and verifying potentially hundreds of lines of code generated by an AI?


The same way you context switch between whatever your day to day is and reviewing peers code


If you can translate the schema into native rust types, then yes!
