The OP only replaces one fiction with a slightly more accurate fiction. The OP described only of the 'spheres in a vacuum' version of physics that tends to fall apart outside the classroom.

(1) There are no spheres in realworld gravity. Earth is not round. The moon is not round. Even black holes are not round. Realworld orbits, orbits around non-round bodies, are not this predictable.

(2) For purposes of space travel there is no "out of atmosphere". There are detectable wisps of gas out almost to the moon. This is the primary reason orbits decay, especially anything close to earth. The ISS would fall out of the sky very quickly without constant correction for the atmosphere it is flying through 24/7.

Pointing out errors in science fiction is a fools errand. If they listen to you and correct all the errors that you've pointed out, someone else then shows up demanding that all their errors also be accommodated. The next thing you know Freeman Dyson is on set pointing out that the stars in your backdrop are upside down. An inaccurate piece of science fiction isn't as bad a one that claims scientific accuracy when it clearly stopped listening to the Mr Dysons half way through production.
'Nobody in the real world is so "busy" that they can't stop what they are doing for a few minutes and prepare and consume real food in order to meet their body's demands.'

Compare the preparation time for preparing a meal that satisfies oneself nutritionally compared with Soylent. It's not just about spending more time working, it's about having time to do other things like reading or playing music. Also, why are you getting so upset about people who want to eat nutritious meals?
Are you serious? HN is breaking down because someone didn't follow Apple's brand identity when posting about a product that was launched about 2 hours ago!?

If anything, THIS is where HN is breaking down!
I don't know, I recognize that this is purely anecdotal but I still feel like more people are familiar with things like the Tesla coil, I mean there was even a fairly popular hair band named after him.

In my experience advances in the field of AI have only in the past 10-15 years shown a noticeable rise in awareness of the Turing test. Am I in some sort of minority and haven't realized it?

People don't buy TV's that often: 5 years after release HD TV penetration was only 3%. It took 15 years to reach 81%.

Why wouldn't Apple's current usage of "force touch" also conflict with this?
Seems to me the iPad was always intended as a content consumption device. Seems like your use case is much, much better served by an iPad Air - which costs about the same as an iPad Pro but is way more developer friendly.

It's kind of like saying "man, they ought to sharpen these spoons up, I can't cut my food with them at all!" A little bit, anyway.

At any rate they're starting down this road so your use case won't be so rare or unaccommodated soon.
Actually, I'm surprised it does link dynamically, since Rust binaries are typically statically linked. But yes, it should be able to avoid that.
I agree that the stats don't provide insight regarding game play and strategy. IBM has been providing the same weak stats for years now. I would like to see tennis incorporate the hawk-eye system tracking player movement and shot placement as well. Perhaps that could produce a heat map. On that note they can also eliminate the line judges while we're at it. The whole challenge system is idiotic. They have the tech, they should incorporate it throughout the sport.
at $39 or whatever it costs, I suspect they aren't making a whole lot of profit on the hardware. They have an iOS app, I expect they'll have an AppleTV pretty rapidly.
The whole reason the 4K bandwagon exist is to push people to replace their whole media hardware stack again. They tried with 3D, but that flopped, so apparently more pixels are needed, so you can see the media with more clarity from the sofa (where there's basically no difference because of the distance).

Similar as pushing 2k/4k screens to mobile phones - marketing and sales.
Stagefright Exploit Is Now Available for Testing Purposes
There are no Greek subs for most of iTunes content. If AppleTV was able to fetch subs from opensubtitles.org I'd had a subscription but it doesn't.

Plus the fact that some content is not readily available in my country, plus the fact that I must change format for huge load of media makes the entire thing a deal breaker.

I won't even start mentioning what XBMC can do that AppleTV can not because it's embarrassing.
I don't really think this is HN "breaking down" :) The OP may have typed the T in capital.
The problem of haphazard feature support is not new, no.
Certainly the move to frustrate easily replaceable parts by tying it in to the ecu is a dick move. However, the push should be to challenge that aspect, rather than say ecus should be free to be modified any which way.

Imagine airbus or boeing or the FAA allowing uncertified code to enter critical commercial aircraft systems.

So, I'm of two views on this. Critical systems should not be allowed to be modified by uncertified technicians, or similar, but at the dame time, they should not classify non critical components as critical. Some reasonable authority should make those calls, not the mfg or Joe/Jo public.
It's fine for lots of people, but those aren't the people that Apple wants to target. The last thing Apple wants is people who find they can't download more apps and music (putting money into Apple's pockets) because they don't have enough space.

I need to keep a separate iPod because there's not enough room on my iPhone for much of my music collection. (I only have a handful of apps). And for what? An extra sixteen gigs of flash memory costs a few bucks nowadays.
Enforcing arbitrary rules breaking brand names is a bad thing. IPhones should never be typed like that. Now we also have watchOS and tvOS.

I've made an embedded language called Plumb, which works along similar lines: http://chriswarbo.net/essays/plumb

Plumb is certainly not a Lisp though; it's actually a syntax for lambda calculus with de Bruijn indices, which just-so-happens to embed easily in common scripting languages (PHP, JS, Python, etc.).

I suspect they aren't making a whole lot of profit on the hardware

They aren't. The idea is to get you using one and then make money from that usage.
suddenly the Apple Game Controller framework makes a whole lot more sense....

Apple is moving full steam towards enterprise. All these partnerships with IBM and the like are to push iOS tablets into the corporate world.
iPad Pro is at a perfect price point and feature set for businesses. Healthcare, retail and entertainment are industries that will embrace it fully.
I'll be holding on to my iPhone 5 until it bricks at this rate.
Ultra-orthodox members are not known for their tolerance of other people's freedoms. That's one giant caveat you've got there.
I wouldn't touch the Surface in light of Windows 10's issues with privacy. (Not that iOS doesn't have some issues itself.)
Cloudflare may be under court order by the DoD to keep ISIS on their network and protecting classified information with the free speech rationalization. Anti terrorist operations are much easier to conduct when the terrorists are using American communications infrastructure.
https://github.com/Munksgaard/rust-sessions actually goes quite far in doing this (without compiler support, just using the type system).
Then what is the point of posting a link about TimeCube? Your own comment does not explain what its significance to the hacker community is, while mine at least hints at it. The correlations should interest serious minded people. I think it is more than a freak show exhibit. We are all free thinkers, aren't we, bro?
I think this is spot on for the most part. However, I think you're discounting "bedroom communities." Chicago does them quite well - you can own a reasonably priced home in an urban neighborhood at a comfortable level of density. Not the inner city, not downtown, but not exurban sprawl either. You get a backyard, but a small one. You may need a car for domestic life, but for work you can drive or bike to the train station and ride commuter rail like Metra to avoid freeway congestion. This, to me, is the best of both worlds - people get their quasi-suburban experiences, but the city still thrives and people don't waste their lives in traffic.
Maybe he was saying that because HN puts a uppercase to the title first char?
This is my understanding as well, and underlies my assertions above. After all, if a compiler can tell you for certain that any given program written in a Turing-complete language will terminate, then you've literally just solved the halting problem. :P
As much of a Google fanboy as I am, I must admit that Apple is a market leader when it comes to UX.

I do hope Google was taking some notes during this keynote. Siri's interaction in Apple TV is far superior than Android TV's Google Now integration. Hopefully that changes with the work in contextual awareness they've been doing and Now on Tap in Android 6.
He means that the submission guidelines (capital letters) makes it impossible to follow the brand identity.

He's referring to HN the piece of software, not the community.
It's fine that you've decided that the only version of fun you like is on the PC, but in the context of the wider world, you are factually incorrect.
They have clearly adopted other goals as well, apparently popping bubbles or some such, otherwise with 10 year TIPS << 2% there would be no reason to raise rates.

Couldn't resist a (weak) shot at google ...

"The only thing we didn't reinvent was the alphabet."

Also, the ipod is missing from the apple store website. You can still search for it, but its lost its place on the top menu.
> most of HN seems to hate or deride these features (like the Live Photos thing) tells me that they'll likely be a huge success and all be using them in a year

If the fact that gifv videos are already everywhere (Facebook, Tumblr, Reddit, Vine-sorta-kinda) didn't tip you off. It seems like people are starting to think of short, usually-silent, looped videos as just what you take to preserve a moment, instead of a photo.

It's so that they can reel you in with the lower price but end up selling you a much more expensive device for minimum extra manufacturing cost.
Interesting. Do you know why it's heavier?

I'd have to hold one to be sure, but I really like how light the 6 is. I'm not sure I'd like a heavier phone - the 6's specs are already great.
I find it surreal how this article is reporting about a business based in an Israeli settlement in the Palestinian West Bank as if that's completely normal and isn't part of a horrible colonial occupation by any international standard.
The first letter is (used to be?) made capital in HN titles automatically. I've had to go back and change this manually after the initial submission. Most folks probably haven't run into it before. And anytime I corrected it, it remained corrected.
For non-mobile use-cases the passmenu script distributed with pass comes in handy:

I think the one important thing that Microsoft's approach has over Apple's is file management. File management is horrible on iOS.
how do you change the watch face without force touch?
Isn't believe in progress a religion?
"Keyless SSL" is a bit of a misnomer. CloudFlare still holds the keys to encrypt and decrypt the content it is distributing and therefore sees everything (they can inject into your traffic as well). Even if they don't hold the private key, they can act in every way as if they did hold the private key.
Well, "break down" as in "The sacred rules of HN conflict with actual reality because pedantics." You get to see the cracks in our gilded nerd armor.

Introducing Bernard Lonergan’s Philosophical Proof for God

http://www.strangenotions.com/tag/bernard-lonergan/ (scroll down for the link to part 1 of the series)

His arguments largely build on the assumptions that General Relativity accurately describes the macro-scale universe and that the telescope data backing the Lambda-CDM model[2] are being interpreted correctly. However, that's a starting point familiar to most who work in the field of physical cosmology, so I don't think they're unreasonable assumptions to start out.

Also, his arguments are certainly not beyond criticism, but Fr. Spitzer is intellectually honest and overall he offers a great deal of good food for thought.

Then why buy an iPhone?
Progress can cause people to go two ways, they go with it, or they go against it. Which is of course obvious except that those who fight against it usually snap back very hard. They don't just stay where they are, they end up gravitating to the very hard rules of what they perceive as the way things were. This lets them feel much more comfortable as the world around them changes. The more it changes, more people hit some limit and start snapping back.

Science isn't the only thing that progresses one funeral at a time.
And then they charge an extra hundred bucks for an extra few bucks' worth of memory. Which is why I have the base model.

It's the same with the European cars. BMW or whatever will sell you (in this country) a tiny underpowered four-cylinder engine for $N. If you want the four-cylinder engine with more power it will be $N+10K, if you want a six-cylinder engine that doesn't feel sluggish it will be $N+20K, and if you want something that actually feels as fast as the car looks it'll cost you $N+30K.

Meanwhile you can buy a fast engine in a crate for about $5K.
There's the app 'Prompt' which gives you an ssh terminal.
I agree with you. The only downside of this attitude might be the customer trust on the long run and with their future products. Basically, how long can they afford to be mediocre in those areas and will they eventually run out of people who weren't burnt for their money?

Also upcoming public awareness about ads/tracking and how to block them might bring significant changes in their revenue success.
iOS 9 wasn't really spoken about, but yeah there are improvements coming.

Nah, it actually does change it automatically. Now if that's good or bad or doesn't matter is open to debate...
Source: "endurance sports also peaks around 27 years of age" I have seen most triathletes hitting their best time in their early 30s. Chrissie Wellington actually only started professional ironman in her 30s. She was ironman champion in 2007(30),2008(31),2009(32),2011(34).

Also cardiac output is more correctly a function of stroke volume, how much blood is pumped for each stroke. Therefore very well trained athletes actually have a lower max hr.

Also cardiovascular drift can increase your max HR, this happens when it's very hot or you have lost a lot of water due to sweating, this causes stroke volume to decrease and heart rate to increase while you still at the same physical output. You hear ppl saying my heart rate was so high and i didn't feel like i was working that hard, it's usually due to cardiovascular drift.

Apple is a US company and the keynote is in the US. Inches are not considered "uncool" nor "old fashioned" in the US. The US tried switching to metric many years ago, but it didn't work.

I'm sure their localized advertising for other countries lists the dimensions in metric units.
You are taking Apple apologetics to a whole new level.

It'd be nice if they remembered us. We seem to be the only creative types not being targeted here. And yes, I'd actually consider it for a few purposes..

No, don't ship the SDK by default. Make it so that it only runs locally-compiled binaries. That's okay. But I'd like the ability to use this for real work that I do. Everybody else gets to work on it, after all.
An Inconvenient Hardwear Truth
There's a difference between "luxury" and (the visual equivalent of) "audiophile." People with money to waste buy Beats headphones, not Sennheisers. Thus why Apple acquired the former instead of the latter. Targeting the high-market buyer doesn't usually imply making your product capable of doing all the latest and greatest bleeding-edge things and beating the competition in a highest-numbers contest, any more than BMW sells its products as race-cars.

Of course, some rich people are racing-car enthusiasts, or audiophiles, or whatever else—and it seems to be more common in the high-end, simply because more of the rich can afford to actually get these things when they want them. But that doesn't mean that the desire is a rich-people thing, or that making something super-duper-high-numbered will make it sell more to the rich.

(Of course, if you give the thing a super-duper-high-numbered price tag, you might inspire some rich people to get it as a Veblen good, which can often look like a desire for the bleeding-edge. You'll frequently find things purchased in this way being underutilized—4K "Veblen TVs" purchased in order to watch 480p Seinfeld re-runs and so on.)
While I agree that perhaps we could use some more diversity in science research competition, I think you underestimate the scale of work and dedication required - look at Sara Volz, the 2013 winner, who notably did much of her work in an improvised lab environment [1].

If you're interested, do take a look at the 2015 projects - Intel STS winners are by no means coddled or fed on "fake" science. Perhaps there is an undesirable concentration of talent in certain schools or regions, leading some to question the privilege enjoyed by the winners, but there is no doubt in my mind that the awardees have performed immensely well to deserve their honors. By the way, some of the best labs/resources are also offered through meritocratic selection - Harvard/MIT's RSI and Stanford's SIMR programs both offer excellent mentorship and cutting-edge resources to summer students through an application process. These students often end up winning these competitions too, with no parent involvement.

still runs ios? so it's not a surface pro killer, but a mere ipad RT?
I wrote this elsewhere in this thread, but might as well copy and paste it here.

>Sometimes the mere existence of the base model causes some problems that can't be fixed with the existence of an upgraded option. This is a consistent problem in an enterprise environment. The base model is always the one purchased more frequently whether through BYOD or enterprise owned devices. This means that support staff has to spend a lot of time working with users to manage space.
I think the challenge is not in the numbers but in the quality of support and these guys are doing it well and substantiating how they did it with solid evidence.

No mouse or trackpad? Really? I'm supposed to awkwardly and dangerously contort my wrist every time I want to click on something?
Yes, just like the original iPhone wasn't new. /s

I think you need to take a step back and look at what Apple usually deliver - not the latest and greatest technology, but well thought-out features with impressive vertical integration. It's compelling for some people - just like the Samsung "all the features" approach is for others. They're both valid; use what suits you best.
This is a genuine question. How many households do you suppose have an Internet connection that can support 4K? I don't know the answer for the USA, but I can see from a Ofcom report published at the start of the year, about 68% of households in the UK would not be able to stream 4K on Netflix due to insufficient broadband speed. Just 1/3 of households have connections with 30Mb/s or more (http://media.ofcom.org.uk/news/2015/broadband-speeds-novembe...).

I'm not saying this a valid excuse for omitting 4K support. However, for the most part I don't think the infrastructure is really there for the wider population. I live out in the sticks and barely get 3Mbps.

Perhaps we might see 4K come to the Apple TV next year either as a software upgrade on current hardware or with better GPU/CPU to support it.
I'm done with fans in tablets. Surface 3's Intel X is ok, though performance is just on par with the A8 (it falls behind in many benchmarks, but it's good enough for me).

I wonder if Apple will update the iPad air with 3d touch and stylus capabilities?
