I don't think these two situations are comparable.

For one, I own multiple devices that are somewhat obsolete now. This wasn't a case with Flash, since I doubt anyone cared for technology the video was using — it's fine either way if you see same pixels on the screen. Apple also wasn't making money from every website that didn't include Flash, but I bet that's the case for each Lightning device produced, and the major reason jack is removed.

It's not even headphones-only either, there are multiple devices using 3.5mm for extedning iPhone's functionality that Apple don't get a cut from. I'm interested whether those will be supported via adapter.

I'm also not sure that 3.5mm is objectively worse than wireless. If anything, both have advantages and disatvantages.
I really like stuff like this. You know, where it's laid out in a straightforward, no-noise formula for doing something. Does anyone have any more of these types of things? Social interactions, design patterns, anything. I love them.

I am admittedly woefully uninformed about the topic, but why is it discussions of economics seem so much more verbose than those of math and science? Perhaps it's just this article, but all this flowery language and backstory should be optional.
While the motivation for their models might be complex or esoteric, calculating out the parameters might as well be done in Excel. Typically, the data flow is linear, and well suited for FP.

But it ain't hard either.

The kind of complexity I'm referring to is the need to synchronize and coordinate concurrency in a time efficient manner, along with the user interaction that is found in desktop applications - or in my case that controls hardware instruments.
Why? I can't imagine Apple cares about anything that Tesla would bring to the table.
No, no, I think Owl did well, because it didn't say that it's scheme, at least up front. It's honestly more akin to DSSSL than anything else. Saying that it's "functional scheme" is far less likely to cause confusion than some of the other things people have done.

EDIT: No, it's not like DSSSL, and it's less cool than I thought it was. It's still cool, though.
The best guide I've ever read to writing nonfiction is William Zinsser's "On Writing Well". If you do any writing for work or pleasure, his advice is indispensable:

I don't see it as running away. I just don't find meaningful connection in casual hangouts. I've been there, it was fun for awhile. Drinking, night life, etc. I prefer to work on projects with friends because those things take time and are a lot more fulfilling and 'inclusive'. I've learned a lot more and grown a lot closer to people by working on things together.

You grow to respect one another more over time when you share a foundation in things you are both equally passionate about. The amount I've learned from friends and also taught has made for very fulfilling life-long friendships.

The longer I've worked on things and gotten more into niche subjects the more difficult it is to casually relate to people, I've found that a lot of my 'friends' were just acquaintances. Knew them for years, but they didn't really know me and I didn't really know them.

If I do feel a need to unwind and casually hangout I prefer doing things like skiing, rock climbing, hiking, etc and keeping acquaintances in those circles. The reality is that if there's no shared foundation words become weightless.
5 Essential Ways to Safeguard Your SaaS Business
Using customer-centric technology does not hurt here either, and tools like Tagove’s co-browsing,UserVoice, Zendesk and Support Hero may prove useful in an effort to provide seamless support. Tools can also assist a support team when sending and receiving the updates and feedback in order to better serve customers. Apart from that, a support team should practice a client-centric approach where all potential customer problems, feedback, and complaints are handled with grace and courtesy.

What exactly are you talking about? Supporting your underage children is a moral responsibility in my book. If you're talking about filial responsibility laws, then yea, you have a point; it's somewhere that I disagree with the law. But fortunately, due to federal medicare support, these laws are rarely enforced. For face-to-face meetings and everything else, shitty family members should be shunned. I wish more people would tell their abusers to take a hike.

So, the only reason why you incorporated in the US is because it is required from a funding PoV, right? Aside from that, I can't really see any reason why you would want to run things through a high tax US entity, in comparison to the sweet deal you're getting in HK (tax wise).

Even in those jobs, there are always tangential tasks, one-offs, and side projects that could potentially be done much more easily/efficiently using different tools than the primary codebase. Even when using the same tools, different ways of thinking (patterns, paradigms) can make a huge difference.

The tools used to build GUI CRUD apps may be very well suited to that, but sooner or later all that data collected by the CRUD GUI will need to be processed, analyzed, and/or migrated. Although that might be doable with your CRUD GUI building knowledge, other tools or approaches, more well-suited to data processing, could make that task far easier, better, faster, and more reliable.

A legacy system from pre-networked days may be optimized well within the environment that it was created for, but when the day comes to make it connectable with an API, different skills may be useful. If you refuse to learn them, then either you have to hire someone else or you are likely to end up with a mess.
I can speak from the OpenShift perspective (which is just Kube as far as storage is concerned):

OpenShift Online and Dedicated (both hosted Kube/OpenShift) use AWS and EBS persistent volumes for elasticsearch and Cassandra storage, which is moderately high IOPs although not "all things tuned for performance". Most small non-cloud OpenShift deployments I know of are using NFS for medium / large shared storage - file or data sharing workloads. There are several medium sized deployments on OpenStack using Ceph under Cinder, and their experience is roughly comparable with AWS EBS and GCE disks.

Basically, if you need to fine tune many details of the storage medium, are carefully planning for IOPs and latency, Kube makes it slightly harder to plan that because it's abstracting the mounting / placement decisions. It's definitely possible, but if you're not dealing with tens of apps or more it might be overkill.

OpenShift Online Dev Preview (the free 30-day trial env) is Kube 1.2+ and uses the upcoming dynamic provisioning feature (which creates PV on demand) and is used for many thousands of small ~1GB volumes. Remember though the more volumes you mount to any node the less network bandwidth you have available to the EBS backplane, so Kube doesn't prevent you from having to understand your storage infra in detail.

Also, be very careful using NFS with replication controllers - the guarantee on RCs is there is at least N replicas, not at most N replicas, so you can and will have two+ pods running talking to NFS if you have an RC of scale 1.

"This is not a Motorola MC14500 computer, but it was the MC14500 that introduced me to the idea of one-bit computing. Exploring ways to reduce the chip count, a series of pencil & paper designs revealed the MC14500 itself could be omitted!"

That's really gold. I love these optimization rounds.

Worst experience in this was that I once spent a lot of time optimizing some function that looked like it was using a whole pile of time, only to realize afterwards that a hand-optimized version in assembly was already graciously provided in the same subdirectory. And it ran a lot faster than mine :(

I've used PostgreSQL, SQL Server, and MySQL.

In my experience, MySQL had the worst query optimizer of the three. By A LOT. Basically, anything but a simple select could suck very unnecessarily. Even for simple selects, MySQL messes up.

I've fixed more than performance issue by changing SELECT * FROM users WHERE key1 = 0 OR key2 = 5 into two queries and concatenating the results.

To summarize the article, Kenny Gu is getting down payments from people in China, then getting them a mortgage from a Canadian bank in Canada, and the people in China buy the house in Vancouver and declare it to be their primary residence. The arrangement Gu makes with the buyers is that they get a fixed return on their down payment, he manages the property sometimes renting it out but often not (one property had multiple complaints filed on it by the city for bylaw violations), and he gets any capital gains that occur when the house is sold.

Because the property is listed as a primary residence the capital gains are tax free.

And he managed to pay $50,000 in income tax on profit of millions.

Also the CRA is afraid to go after these people for "fear of looking racist", which was a quote from a management level meeting from someone in the CRA.

Same is also true for lightning, where's wireless charging then? Also, both are perfectly cleanable.
Indeed. The implied point being that capitalism didn't win either, regardless of what we call ourselves.

In both cases what seems to have emerged from the 20th century as the successful governing model is varying degrees of democratic socialism.
I think about presenting arguments a lot. Arguments are best represented in DAG form; mostly a tree structure, although some premises might support multiple conclusions so it's inherently graph-based (graphical data structure). Because some conclusions are often lemmas supporting further conclusions, arguments can go several levels deep.

I like envisioning them with the conclusion on the top and the premises on the bottom, although people often visualize them flipped in another direction.

But the trick comes in presenting the argument to someone else, verbally, in a presentation, or through writing. What is the best way to do it?

Because your goal isn't just to impart information; it's also to be convincing and to hope that your counterparts get invested in the conclusion.

I find that if the conclusion is counterintuitive, then starting with the conclusion can create resistance. People love to interrupt and argue against something they disagree with even if they haven't thought it through.

On the other hand, starting with a bunch of premises devoid of context can just feel unrooted.

I guess I generally try to analyze the argument to find the highest (closest to conclusion) points that are not controversial, start with those, and then try to talk about the surprising conclusion that they imply. It can be a real workout, though, trying to anticipate responses, being open to feedback while still working towards your conclusion.

I wonder if this sort of thing is related to any algorithmic concepts, like most efficient ways to walk a DAG.
People should watch speeches from Clinton, Stein, and Trump before they draw their own conclusions. The polarization is completely unnecessary.
this essay's style seems endemic in tech writing: logorrheic and trafficking in technical details/protocols in place of the underlying principles (cogency, brevity, a single unifying argument that can be simply stated).

i appreciate any tips to aid my writing, but i think very few match the tried and true approach of reading masters of the craft and revising one's writing, again and again, for brevity. i suspect that the blog format discourages the latter.
First of all the machine should have enough RAM to hold the numbers you want to add.
Say two 3-bit numbers a and b:

a2 a1 a0
+ b2 b1 b0
----------
= c2 c1 c0

Then to do the addition by testing one bit at a time think like

if (a0==0)
if (b0==0)
c0 = 0;
else
c0 = 1;
else
if (b0==0)
c0 = 1;
else
c0 = 0;

>Food Stamps are not a subsidy to farmers, they are a welfare program for poor people. They just are part of the "farm bill" for political reasons.

Food stamps shape the food choices people are able to (and do) make. Giving people money to buy food and giving farmers money to produce food are two sides of the same coin.

I'm all for helping prisoners, but part of this strike is against the concept of prisons as economic engines. Imho prisons should not engage in profitable business. It creates too much incentive to keep productive people behind bars. And it turns those productive workers into a commodity.

That said, I have absolutely no issue with prisoners working, long as they are paid an appropriate wage and the activity doesn't turn a profit for the prison. Either give all the profits to the prisoners in pay, or run the operation as a rehabilitation program at a net loss.

I'm not entirely sure on the laws in the US but in Germany the law basically considers parents to be responsible for their children and as the parents and children get older, eventually the children become responsible for the parents. I'd imagine it's similar in other countries.

A lot of the time there isn't much or any consideration given in case of abusive relationships. Even though I think we both agree on the fact that in such a situation any ties both morally and legally should be severed.
perhaps - but the parent was questioning that the username did not provide a hint about the reason. I think it's fair to say that's a reasonable hint. It may or may not be the actual reason he was denied of course.
On a tuple, yes. That's how most language implement returning multiple values, but you need good accessors. On a struct you'll need to declare it first.
> Also, Google does not know what is illegal and what is legal, so they can't be sued over this particular ruling.//

Only because "Google" chooses not to. Execs in control of what Google links to know that it links to illegal/tortuous/immoral content -- leaked nude images, say -- they make money from advertising alongside those links and by inclusion of such links so they can provide a 'comprehensive' search.

Google will get a pass though, too big to prosecute. The result of that is there will always be a place to find such content.

It's inequitable -- and hence contrary to democracy and the rule of law -- to convict someone of providing a link without also convicting search engine execs whose SE provides the same link. It also makes the process futile.
The phrasing does not imply it's a hypothetical, so why do you think it's not true? Do you believe they're lying?
Feel free to skip to any topic, it is quite well structured to do that.
Is the app a reasonable improvement over the browser version?
I disagree. Self-drive tech will indeed become a commodity - eventually. What technology hasn't?

For a time, when it's brand new, having better self-driving tech certainly will be a differentiator. But the question is how long that window will last and how it aligns with regulatory changes.

If I have a perfect fully autonomous car but I have to keep my eyes on the road and hands hovering over the steering wheel at all times, and can't "operate" it after having had a couple of drinks, then what's the point?

I'm not sure if there will be time for better self-driving tech to ever be a meaningful differentiator because for a long time it will probably be illegal to use.

Apple's exceptional skill has generally been in building consumer brands, managing operations, and timing when to release a new product after the underlying tech has been somewhat commoditized. I suspect they will not rush to release the best underlying tech six months or a year ahead of the competition. They'll wait until other people have figured out what works and then release their take on it.
Why am I not surprised at the poor quality of this writer's prose? An uncontroversial observation that's made worse by its intent -- to teach others how to write. Even the title --

"How to Write Articles and Essays Quickly and Expertly"

-- contains a contradiction: by definition, an expert doesn't require tutorial instruction (expertise is not a transferable consumer product). The essay goes quickly downhill from there.

One more example:

"But part of it is a simple strategy for writing your essays and articles quickly and expertly, a strategy that allows you to plan your entire essay as you write it, and thus to allow you to make your first draft your final draft."

The observation this sentence makes is self-falsifying. The sentence is too long and meandering and cries out for the compassionate intervention of an editor.
I think the author recognizes that she had no duty to her father after the abuse she suffered and that nobody she cared about would think twice about her never seeing him or his family again. Reading between the lines I heard the voice of a young girl who will nonetheless always miss the father figure she wanted (so desperately that she was ready to forgive and forget sexual abuse if he would either apologize or lie to her about it) but never had (because he never existed) and these emotions become triggered by any mention of his name. I've had close friends in this situation and the psychology of it can become very frustrating and confusing. In any case the article wasn't about him, it was about herself - probably written, she would say, for others in her situation with less self-awareness or self-confidence - children who should recognize a duty not to an abusive parent but to themselves to achieve some measure of peace and closure in their own lives.
