Ohoh, I grew up intellectually "play-fighting" my brother like this. I was always a battle of who could outwit the other. I could make my mother quite unhappy but we were having a blast. Now I do the same with my brother in law, we're trying not to laugh as we try to intellectually bring the other off-balance. It's the most fun I can have but people around us keep thinking we're in a fight or something and tell us to stop.

Has he ever addressed his comments?
There is an interesting resistance, usually from US people, when it's a company; the debate nearly always ends up as "then don't use it", and that companies should be able to decide and do whatever people willing to allow the, by using the service.

These people usually refuse to see that FB has become a generic provider without regulation and competitor and in numerous cases you don't have the choice not use it. In my case, it's even in my workplace now. (Same workplace which is looking to migrate to Gmail from Exchange - and Cyrus before that - despite the countless business secrets that might be in mails.)

Apple should change their process so that they contact all linked accounts if it's possible that they would be closed.

End of.

Kind of.

Seems like Apple is working off the assumption that linked accounts are acutely aware of what each other are doing, and thus are all equally responsible for each others actions. Clearly this assumption is not valid.

Having listened to the entire call, I think both parties conducted themselves with respect and good faith. The only question unanswered in the call is “why didn't Apple notify both accounts?”.

Apple is in a position of disproportionate power here. They created the platform, they make the rules, everybody either plays by them or doesn't play at all. I really hope Apple will just be honest and admit that they did, in fact, have an inadequate process for dealing with this kind of corner case. They did make a mistake. They closed someone's account when it shouldn't have been closed.

If Apple is adamant that they made no mistake, they only reinforce the feeling that Apple has become an inhuman giant, a profit-hunting corporate entity, that doesn't really care about human values — the antithesis of what Apple used to be.

Funny that it doesn't mention the Allied use of amphetamine, which was far greater, and the subsequent prescription blitz in the US, where 1 in 10 people were taking amphetamines by the 1960's. Now there was a society on drugs.

"While consumption levels among each of the particular services remains elusive, I have been able crudely to calculate the (previously undisclosed) overall U.S. mil- itary consumption of amphetamine from the $877,000 worth of Benzedrine purchased from SKF by the government in the course of the war years. Applying the most conservative assumptions in the calculations, for instance, that the government paid regular bulk wholesale price for 10 mg pills, yields an estimate that the American military must have bought at least 250 million Benzedrine Sulfate tablets. The true figure is most likely double that number, around 500 million tab- lets in the course of the war, allowing for procurement pricing and the fact that the military mostly used 5 mg tablets rather than the stan- dard 10 mg prescription tablets (and it could easily be higher still if other conservative assumptions are relaxed).63 This estimate of 250–500 million tablets in total corresponds very roughly to a consumption rate of 10–20 government-supplied amphetamine tablets per year per American serving in combat theaters for the years 1942–45. Although well below the scandalous 30–40 tablets per serviceman per year con- sumption rate in the Vietnam conflict, it is still several (two to four) times the comparable British figure of about 5 tablets per serviceman per year, and roughly equivalent to the German methamphetamine consumption rate at its peak, the Blitz year of 1940."

Quoted from "On Speed, the many lives of Amphetamine" by Nicholas Rasmussen.

Return to the Teenage Brain – Neuroplasticity
It would help if people referred to this technological concept as Function as a Service. That is a lot less ambiguous and buzzwordish than 'serverless'.
FreeBSD is not 'just another OS out there' but an important piece of technology powering lots of things we often use: from Sony's PlayStation and WhatsApp, through Netflix and Yahoo, to Juniper and PFSense networking gear and EMC storage and FreeNAS appliance - and many, many more!

So, have you donated yet? We need FreeBSD and FreeBSD needs your support!

That the BSDs init still works and currently makes many people switch from Linux actually makes it look different.

Also small note on FreeBSDs rc vs Linux old init is that it for example always had support for dependencies.

I'm saying that because BSD's especially FreeBSD's simple, pretty and working rc system have always been a thing that I missed when using Linux. Or in other words I disliked that run level system that makes managing dependencies really hard.

I always hoped OpenRC would become the most common init system on Linux and actually still do, because I think it is the best option, when compared with sysv init and systemd.

Also about the CAs: Everything that wants it has a dependency.

About package conflicts: Choose between official packages or your own with Poudriere

Out of the box the system is like Arch Linux, Debian or Ubuntu Server. It's the FreeBSD base system. You can install packages to make it into a router, a server, a thing hosting your private cloud using jails, a jail itself, etc.

And the plus side. You don't have to get rid of all the stuff when you want your nice little i3 environment. And if you want KDE, just install it and kdm using pkg install and do sysrc kdm_enable=yes.

Or go for TueOS (former pc-bsd).

Or if you just want some FreeBSD tools go on MacOS and enter grep --version.

With the other things I agree. FreeBSD isn't really your multimedia desktop environment. It is maybe for people that like it liked Gentoo or Arch Linux, but you should really check on your laptop's hardware before.

Most driver development really happens in the server or usual suspects (Lenovo, Raspberry, ...) area.

Sorry, didn't mean to even strongly disagree, but wanting to share my own experiences. Not everyone comes with the same views and I'm personally someone who is switching back from Arch Linux, because of the developments in the last few years in the Linux world.

It just in my personal experience felt so much more easy to do stuff and have the system I want. Having used Arch for around a decade with only a relatively short break doesn't make that easy, but I liked it's initial idea about keeping things simple and that's what I miss on many ends.

The main reason for not using FreeBSD on laptops really was the lack of some drivers for me. So that's maybe the biggest gotcha. Oh and for new people maybe that it is not just another Linux distribution so many things work differently.

Biggest is probably the separation between base system and ports/packages.
I'm not sure if it's still true, but a few decades ago, the easiest way to get a Dutch license was on Saba, one of the Dutch Antilles. Apparently, if you managed to drive around the central square on the island without any major accidents, you got your license, and it was perfectly valid as a Dutch driver's license.

I knew one guy who got his license there, and he didn't dare to drive in continental Netherland. He did have a Dutch motor bike license, but he didn't feel qualified to drive a car in real traffic.
Yes, the editor font can be changed. The interface font (menus, sidebars) not so much. The only thing you can do is scale the whole UI which feels awkward at best.
"In big cities like Utrecht and Amsterdam, in certain neighbourhoods with lots of migrants, it is - as a cyclist - not safe to assume that someone will check for cyclists from behind."

It doesn't need to reliably predict outcomes for the problem to arise.

Imagine there's an obstacle moving in front of the vehicle, which could be a bag blown by the wind or a cat or a child chasing a ball into the street. Are you going to write code that treats these cases the same? I hope not. I don't want to be sitting in a car that swerves all over the road for a plastic bag, or one that doesn't for a child.

As soon as you have code to identify obstacles and choose among multiple ways to avoid them, then these issues immediately come up.

My somewhat cursory read of Madoff was that he tarbabied himself. He had been running a successful investment company, but hit losses.

The good, and lawful, thing to do would have been to come clean at that point. He didn't, and his downfall began there.

Instead he did the bad, and illegal, thing: doubled down and paid off the small number of exiting investors with new investor's deposits, whilst lying about returns.

If you've read John Kenneth Galbraith's The Great Crash: 1929 (a short and highly readable account), you'll find a very familar story in Madoff. He fell prey to what JKG calls "the bezzle".
Saying that you're Dutch and have never heard of this behavior is hardly evidence that the other 16 million Dutchies haven't heard of it.
> They weren't asking the dev to admit to fraud. They were asking him to admit to opening multiple developer accounts and losing control of one. Which both sides acknowledge he did. I'm not sure I understand why the developer thinks this would be an admission of wrongdoing on his part

Just to be clear, the developer would've been happy to do exactly that:

> On Saturday they told me that they are fine with me writing the truth about what happened, and that if I did that, my account would be restored. Saturday night I sent a blog post draft to Apple and have since waited for their approval.

However ...

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

Apple's press release does not make any mention of the fact that the fraudulent reviews were for apps from a different (linked) developer account. They also say that they gave multiple warnings prior to removing the app. The developer's blog post and his recording shows this only to be true for the linked account, not his. At the very least, Apple is guilty of lying by omission.

All in all, I think this is very bad form from Apple. They could've simply admitted that their notification system does not present a full picture to developers and fix that, rather than do some weird "we want to make clear we did nothing wrong" dance, and then go out and make misleading statements.
Appeal to basic human envy and greed.

Give small shiny gifts to whoever has access to the west. Fund smuggling operations, assist in setting up black markets. Send in films and the means to play them. Doesn't matter if they get taken away from the people you give them to, so long as someone over there ends up with them. No need for overt propaganda. Simply, "here are shiny things, here are people enjoying shiny things, everyone else has this stuff and you don't." And, more basic level: "see how people can live, what can be taken for granted. Food. Light. Toilet paper. Supermarkets."

Then wait. They'll overthrow the regime themselves. It worked for the Soviet Union, though it took a while. It'll work here, too.
If it’s so easy to identify prospective “great” developers, why not try to recruit them?

Because they are not on the market, and they're very picky as to where and most importantly, with whom they will work. Does someone out there honestly believe that a guy like Keith Wesolowski, Dan Price, Jerry Jelinek, or Jeff Bonwick will just shop themselves on the open market? If so, it's time to do some extensive research on the subject, because nothing could be further from the truth.

Steve Jobs once put it like so: A players hire A players; B players hire C players; and C players hire D players. It doesn't take long to get to Z players. This trickle-down effect causes bozo explosions in companies.

And boy was he right; I've seen good companies and good, interesting jobs go down the toilet so fast, my head is still spinning from it all, years later.

I know how that is first hand: I don't shop myself around on the open market, people call me, and by people I mean people I have closely worked with in the past, people which I know exactly what they're capable of, what they know, what they don't know, and if I accept, the whole interview process is nothing but an empty formality. It's truly eye opening just how much of a sham-theater the entire inteview games are. The key takeaway is, if you're good, you'll have a renomee, and you're unlikely to be on the open market - you come to people and people come to you. You get the job long before any would be competitors have even had a chance to apply ("we must satisfy human resources policies"). Dan Luu's question is, by experience, an unlikely occurrence in this particular industry.

Wether apple is inhuman or the developer is a prick is quite an open question.

Both were faulty and they obviously didn't come to an agreement. Apple phone offer would have gave both of them a clean exit and it might always remain shady why this agrement wasn't actually implemented...
