I have done it a bit lately. To document to other companies what they can send or expect to receive. Trying to avoid having too much business rules in it, though, mostly just fields and their type. Compared to xsd for xml I find the tooling

I live in Norway. State mandated 25 days off / 4 weeks + 1 day (paid). Can demand 3 of those weeks at once during summer, and 1 whole week at once any other time. Most companies more lax than that. I have two extra weeks over the manda

I thought this would be about the ban a few years ago: Brooms with certain bristles were banned, as it made it "too easy". From the same paper a few years back: https://www.nytimes.com/2015/11/20/spo

Could some of the perception be because of time of day when reading HN? I feel there is some different content when I'm awake (EU), compared to next morning when US has been awake and voted on stuff.

Most of my feed now is friends liking or commenting on pages I have no interest in. If I could remove all that I might check it out more often. Or maybe I would discover none of my friends post anything anymore?

This post wasn't about answering those questions, that they have done already elsewhere (some of it linked in the article, even). This was about how they will make sure not to use SHIELD to do the same in the future.

I think your points make sense, but at the same time I would also hesitate to risk destroying a relationship with a friend. So maybe I'd prefer a stranger.

As a student I would often walk home in the middle if the night, bright as day. Pretty weird when taking summer holidays in southern Europe, and it gets dark like 8 or so in the evening.

What's nice with beer and gin is that there is short time from production start to market and getting paid. Other kinds of alcohol that needs storing for X years makes the startup barrier much larger.
