I've found the conclusions of the paper that blog post discusses to be overreaching ever since I was linked to it. The authors have since retracted the paper.

Hm. Maybe you should think about it more abstractly because these things are quite similar.
They didn't relate to Kapeli's app at all, other than that the account on which they were made was created by his credit card and on an old machine he gave away.
Because they don't want to set a precedent of going before the developer public as a jury they need to satisfy. Seriously, if I were Apple reading threads like this, I'd solve the PR problem by fixing the issue with Kapelli--which it sounds like they're doing by unlinking the accounts.

I would strenuously avoid making the HN community feel more entitled than it already does to all the technical details so it can be endlessly armchair litigated.
That doesn't make any sense. Are you saying that Apple admits to certain beliefs, and to certain facts that contradict those beliefs, in the same call? Because I'm pretty sure they don't. They explain that the accounts were linked and that they don't think they made a mistake in linking those accounts. And they offered the developer a way to unlink the accounts and restore his account without the developer having to admit to wrongdoing. But nobody seems to be disputing that the second account was engaged in fraud, and Apple gave some perfectly reasonable reasons for the two accounts to have been linked.
Why was I downvoted? Did you not layout these circuits in college. Oh, I know, maybe you didn't take any computer engineering courses.

12 steps to better code (Spolsky, 2000)
Because he skipped the lesson about Apple having automated systems to catch review manipulators. So this newbie developer had some marketer friend whisper in her ear, "hey you can hire these guys to promote your shitty little food app, it's like $200 and I know someone who did it and made a billion dollars"
The Soviet healthcare system suffered from underinvestment due to their command economy's focus on heavy industry and military production. The problem in the United States is the exact opposite: unproductive overinvestment due to the proliferation of waste, fraud, rent-seekers, and all other types of interests that rake a profit off the top without contributing anything to patient care. It seems like a false argument to claim that because a radically socialist regime provided inferior care, our radically capitalist regime is not the cause of our inferior care.
Not sure having the government run a standards-making organization is the best idea. From the NIH storing smallpox vials, the NSA hoarding zero-day exploits, the infamous Obamacare website, to the OPM hack, the government might not be the right folks to LEAD the effort. It's not clear that a central organization would be more effective than federations of industry and government players.
Is there an option/mode to simply highlight matching parentheses for plain text or files that don't have their own language modes?
I figured the same! But it handles type inference, extension methods, using static, etc like a champ. Even does completion for project.json. I don't use vcproj since I just use dotnet core.

My point was that medical school culture hasn't changed. It's been brutal for years.

The main difference between those going to med school and the 90s and now in my opinion is a mix of the expectations by students that the increase in level of difficulty should be comparable to the transition between high school and college, or college and graduate school. It's not, and it never was. High expectations have always been the rule.

However, for the past 25 years, there have been many more immigrants or children of immigrants that work their asses off competing harder and raising the bar.

The medical schools should not lower the bar to make it less stressful. Instead, we need more medical students to matriculate to P.A. programs and nursing programs, where they can do just as much good helping many of the same patients, sometimes making similar salaries. Eventually there will be more medical schools, which will help some. Or, maybe some of these doctors that feel that they had to go through too much can work their way up and teach so that they can give their students an easier individualized and sensitive education and see where that leads.

However, imo it should always be extremely difficult to get in and to succeed. That's the point. I don't think people should commit suicide. They should just quit.
Sounds like it couldn't find an image. Working on a fix for that now.
Of course the linking isn't communicated to the developer. It wouldn't be an effective anti-fraud mechanism if it was.
One thing that caught my eye was the strange phrase trop va qui dure, which I was having trouble translating (I'm not a native speaker). I felt better when I looked at the Wikipedia page which said that the origin of the name remains mysterious.

https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rue_Trop-Va-Qui-Dure

The road was also called the Road Along the Seine and Misery Valley. It disappeared in 1813 when they demolished the Grand Châtelet.

You can still see traces on modern Paris--places like the Rue St. Denis. There are also remnants of the Grand Châtelet in place names, like the shopping center (more like a mall) called Châtelet - Les Halles not far from its namesake.
"What I’ve done: 3-4 years ago I helped a relative get started by paying for her Apple’s Developer Program Membership using my credit card. I also handed her test hardware that I no longer needed. From then on those accounts were linked in the eyes of Apple. Once that account was involved with review manipulation, my account was closed."

Sounds a little fishy to me. I'm not saying that he was aware of or involved in review manipulation that was coming from his "relative's" Apple Developer account that he happened to pay for.

But I wouldn't bet money that he wasn't.

And the fact that he feels the need to mention giving said relative "test hardware that I no longer needed" suggests that said hardware might have been involved in the alleged review fraud.

I don't think this will end well for this guy.
That's a super interesting theory.
What's the issue here? Seriously.....

So this guy has a lot of suspicious activity on accounts linked to him. Apple have done what they believe is the right thing to protect the integrity of the app store, in line with there own terms and conditions which the developer has agreed too.

Said developer has published blog posts online that give Apple very bad publicity over this, making them look like the bad guy for trying to protect users and maintain quality (What does apple have to gain by randomly disabling this guys account?)

Apple have reached out to him and offered to sort the issue out as long as he posts the facts in a blog post, which is fair after his previous posts have outright caused Apple PR issues for something that is his own fault.

Apple have also got top execs dealing with this issue, trying to make things right. Developer doesn't release said blog post, so Apple releases statement with said facts to protect themselves for further incorrect accusations.

Developer then gets but hurt and releases the conversation that does nothing to help there situation.

What is the developer trying to achieve here exactly? Sounds like the developer is guilty as sin for this fraud and is more interested in accusing apple and covering themselves.
Amazon generally has team aisles with 7 (iirc) foot walls between teams which blocked out most conversations from neighbouring teams and desks placed against 4-5 foot walls breaking up the aisle into sections. Each aisle had a window at the far end from the hallway and meeting rooms, bathrooms, office supplies, etc. were in the middle of the floor.

A much nicer setup IMO than Google which had a fairly haphazard cube farm resulting in distance from a window being basically luck of the draw.
> Doing iOS consultancy work for other people's dev accounts could also be more risky than expected now if you use your personal test devices there.

I don't think so. The fact that you have your device registered on two different accounts is unlikely to be sufficient to link the two accounts. It's merely one of the ways in which the accounts were linked. Using the same CC and/or bank details is another. And there's probably other links too that Apple didn't disclose (because they're only effective at combating fraud if fraudsters don't know about them).
Yes, but she's incredibly well connected, so expect no criminal charges.
This is dumb. He's risking a significant amount of his livelyhood for a company that doesn't really care all that much about him and he's calling them out in public.

Dumb move. Most people will forget about this in a week and his business will be affected for months (in the shortest possible time frame) and probably permanently.

This is a dangerous bluff to make.
Maybe he has matured since then?

And the interest and exploits from Facebook has grown as well.

I mean, of course he is not that naive to use Facebook to extract peoples pics/phone numbers.

But what he can extract from it has probably grown more than he did as a person.

I like him, but he has said what he has said and he is not saint (Snowden in this case).
It does, though once you've seen the paywall, no matter what the referrer is you'll get the paywall again.

You need to open the "web" link in an incognito/private mode then click the WSJ link.
After listening to the entire thing, I can say that Kapeli sounds like a complete ignoramus.

He has registered an account using his credentials, the account was involved in fraudulent activity, that makes him responsible, as an individual. Why is Apple supposed to even care that he doesn't control the other account anymore? He's supposed to control the account, according to the terms of service he agreed to. If he doesn't control it and he doesn't want to be responsible, he has to close it.

Apple is giving him the opportunity to get back to having a business relationship, but he doesn't understand the problem. Apparently, neither do many of the other users on here. Apple has every right to terminate their business relationship,so how is it blackmail? It's more like a plea bargain...
When I had my back surgery, my doc was there at 630a when I arrived for a 730a surgery, which took about 6 hours. He met me at 800p in PT to check on me.

I asked and he told me that was a fairly typical surgery day.
Implying that once outside of the "mainstream" journalistic integrity suddenly improves?

Nonsense.
> Are you saying that Apple admits to certain beliefs, and to certain facts that contradict those beliefs, in the same call?

Yes, and it boils down to one thing:

Either the termination of his account was correct, and should be upheld; or it was wrong, and should be rescinded.

There are many times in life when things are in a range of grey between black and white, but this case is entirely black and white. Either they made an error with the termination or they didn't. If they made an error the account should be reinstated without question, delay or condition. If they did not make an error it needs to remain closed.

By the very fact that they are willing to reinstate it, they admit to the fact that the termination was in error, regardless of what they believe of say they believe.

Doublethink is real.

which is a misrepresentation of what the Apple rep said on the call.
Agile practices have made 6 and 7 (specs and schedules) largely irrelevant where I've worked. 12 (hallway usability testing) always seems like a weird one just to round out the numbers. 3 (daily builds) is probably too little these days, it should be continuous integration.

The rest seem just as relevant as ever though, and often just as elusive.
And that... is why I politely, yet firmly instruct anyone rendering medical care to not let a resident within 10 feet of me. "This is a teaching hospital!" doesn't cut it when the means of teaching are so irresponsible.

> it's a photo a photographer would not keep in their image selection.

Yep. And I wonder what David Paul Morris [1] thinks of having his work used in this manner. It doesn't reflect well upon him as a photographer that's for sure.

People brag sometimes trying to look greater than they are, so whatever.

If you are attacking someone then please do it on substantive issues. (something that can be prosecuted)

For example the fact that Facebook engages in censorship (as does Google and Twitter by the way) and actively pushes propaganda trying their best to manipulate the US election. That's a real issue that might lead to some people being sued or even imprisoned after the election if their candidate doesn't win.
I've worked with many startups. Seeing the security practices of early stage products, I am astounded that anyone gives them data. It's horrifying.

Like, right now I have access to some 300,000 phone numbers. All I gotta do is run a shell command and then a SQL query. So can any other engineer in the company. I trust that none of us would use this access maliciously, but how many of our passwords have been leaked in various hacks? What if we're targeted for a hack? What if somebody gets fired and becomes pissy? Hell, what if someone suffers a psychiatric episode and does something stupid?

Situation has been the same at every startup I have ever worked at.

Anyone who gives their data to an early stage startup is not considering all the implications. Me included. I do it all the time. Gotta have all the shiny tools.
In the startup world? I'm not holding my breath.
I thought project.json got mothballed? Did they take another kick at it and make it work?
Note that this also occasionally results in "failure to fork" with the default linux overcommit setting. At fork-time if there isn't enough memory to duplicate the entire process, the fork call fails, even though you never intended to use that memory. You can use vfork to get around this.
Please read and listen again. He did not register the account, nor use his credentials (if he had, apple's contact attempts would've reached him). He only paid for it, and donated hardware.
> It lacks some CloudFormation features, like rolling updates. One of the great things about CloudFormation is the ability to update an AMI in a stack and have it roll out that AMI in a controlled way. In order to do this exactly the same way in Terraform, you need to learn how to do... CloudFormation.

Have you tried using `create_before_destroy` in a resource lifecycle block? Or are there issues with it that are difficult to work around?
IIRC, OpenBSD added 802.11n support in a recent release.
Is it possible to get at least some wins, either on the technical side (subproblems that you can successfully solve or libraries that have already solved them) or on the market side (early customers you can sign up)? Are there enough of them that you can regularly feel like you're making progress, or is it one hopeful blip and then years of slog?

Having hard technical problems or few customers is not a killer: problems can be solved, and new customers like your existing ones can be signed up. Having impossible technical problems or no customers is; at this point, your options include "hope, prayer, and random chance", and it's time to do something else.
USDJPY: Bullish, Maintains Recovery Tone
Re-reading today's press releases, Apple's statements perhaps read as if they're delayed responses to the initial story (and are oblivious of the "my cousin did it" angle currently being talked through on the phone).

But the Dash developer clearly read the press releases as responses to the ongoing communication, rejections of his draft blog post. In his view they made a new decision and went to the press with it. Account ban final. He has nothing to lose by posting his telling of the events and the audio.

> Tonight Apple decided to accuse me of manipulating the App Store in public via a spokesperson.

It's really unfortunate for both sides if this drama is the result of bad timing and/or siloed organizational departments.
It wasn't their mistake, it was his mistake. You can't just register an account, then hand it off to someone else and not be at least partially responsible for what happens through that account.

If Apple didn't want to avoid the bad PR, they could just terminate their business relationship permanently, and they'd be in the right, even morally, since it was Kapeli who violated the trust.
Unfortunately the key skill in being an investor like this is to be able to make the right decisions in the face of being lied to. In other words, being lied to simply isn't an excuse.

My sister in law got annoyed about changes at her workplace with respect to scheduling. She griped about it in the break room, word got out and she had three unsolicited, real interview offers by the end of her shift.

Her requirements were to get her kids on the bus and be home at 5PM. That's written into her employment contract, along with a significant raise and retention bonus.
I do agree with your points here. Still gives me some pause with how I treat my UDIDs going forward.
On the other hand, so are some of her investors. And there I think it comes down to protecting their reputations; if they can point to criminal fraud, they can paint themselves as victims rather than fools. We'll see how it plays out.

There has been a lot of improvement to many network card drivers in 11, and I am helping to push/fund the final integration of Matt Macy's "iflib" for the common intel em/igb/ixgbe drivers.

There are a lot of goodput improvements coming soon, which will affect all TCP users. I had Matt Macy upgrade TCP CUBIC to match 2016 RFC and most Linux behaviors (HyStart). Hiren Panchasara has been working full time for almost 2 years to address many other goodput and correctness issues in the TCP stack. Some of these are in 11, but the majority will hit in 11.1.

Another company is working on the recently announced BBR congestion control from Google and a TCP stack with RACK/PRR https://wiki.freebsd.org/DevSummit/201606/Transport. The end result of all this will be a more tightly integrated and coherent TCP implementation, which should make FreeBSD have the best network stack again in 2017 after falling behind for a while.

Not to keep arguing a dead point, but the word I cared about was "causes" not "show". The study shows pretty definitively ("proves") that a correlation exists. It does not show that hormonal birth control causes depression.

Regardless, I appreciate that you're making an effort to be careful. I've just been seeing this particular study making the rounds on Facebook and I felt like I needed to point out what the study actually says.

I think the fact that he was not notified about this suspicious activity on linked account renders all this as Apple wrong doing. Doesn't matter whether Dash dev actually gave his phone to someone or actually was doing something fishy by himself, failing to notify account before closing it just doesn't seem fair to me.
