My partner studies how and why mainstream hospitals are turning increasingly to complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). Interestingly, one reason is that many current doctors burnt out (because of the conditions described in the article and developed chronic and/or psychological conditions either in med school or practicing. These doctors (or soon-to-be-doctors) find that CAM offers better remedies for many chronic conditions, which the current biomedical stack really isn't optimized to handle. Then when they finish med school, they're in a privileged position to confer institutional legitimacy on CAM treatments. So in some sense, this brutality is changing medicine more generally.
Kapeli did not commit fraud. But that does not mean Apple was incorrect in linking the two accounts. In fact, 20 seconds into the call, the Apple rep says

> We don't believe that there was a mistake here, right. We don't think that we made a mistake.

So no, Apple is very explicitly saying they were not in error.

But if the Theranos deal panned out, who would have benefited from the investment by the hedgefund?

Would it be the "little guy?" Or would it be the fund managers, and all the "insiders."

It goes hand and hand with the notion that the system is rigged.

The flip side of this story is ...

How would you feel if someone swiped a copy of your cc, started an apple developer account, did a bunch of review freud and then got you kicked out of the app store.

I think there are some serious issues around due process with account termination. If something like this was sent originally this would be a non issue.

> We detected freud from account X that is linked using your credit card number to account Y. ... bla bla bla freud is bad ... respond within N hours or have your account terminated.
Well, technically Linode. Not DO, but close enough :P That is pretty funny though.

My sentiments remain. I want a world of self-reliant experts, not halfwitted idea-people who see technology as a means to an end. That may not be this world, but one can dream.

PS: He admits as such in the blog that it is hosted on a VPS. And no one person is going to be able to step to another on every possible criteria. (Frankly, I read your high-school 2005 PHP staticize story with probably the same eye-rolling you gave that dude, cause i was building static HTML in elementary school in the 90s and was doing dynamic flash sites before AJAX became a think in the mid-aughts... and the dude sitting one cubicle over would roll HIS eyes at me because he used to program simulators and missile code for the military in the 70s and 80s.

>Facebook is paying 40-50 percent more than other places, which is usually a sign developers don’t want to work there

It's amazing how this isn't considered when companies are seemingly only looking at the initial cost of buildings.
It is. In surgical specialties, until very recently it not only happened but was absolutely normal and expected. I had one attending outright tell us that we (students) were not allowed to sleep on our 30 hour on-call shifts. To give some context, it is only recently that rules were passed to limit those hours -- to 80 (!!!) per week.

However, this is a vestige of the old culture and is slowly but surely being replaced both by new rules and, generally speaking, a better culture.

They also told him that, from their perspective, the two accounts belong to the same entity because they have the same payment details and test devices.

There was no reason for them to know that this developer purchased an account for someone else and gave them his test devices (which sounds like an excuse anyone accused of anything gives when they're caught).
As someone who once stayed awake on amphetamine for six days, I'll testify that caffeine isn't that bad.

They're saying they think they did not make an error. That's entirely separate from what happened in reality. Besides, even if they say they think it, that might just as well be rethoric.

I hear you. I find Kresser is generally pretty careful and evidence-based, but there is definitely a subset of the Paleo community that is uncritical and dogmatic.

For the record, soy sauce is fermented, which makes it relatively safe to eat. As Kresser points out in the article, fermentation significantly reduces soy's antinutrients.
Probably. I'd imagine that's why Theranos will insist part of the deal is that the exact terms will never be disclosed.
Its difficult to explain to lay people (and I in all honesty do not mean to be condescending) but even in the "simplest" of cases a doctor is called upon to draw on advanced skills and concepts he may not even remember he has.

People fail out of the profession at various levels. A classmate of mine fled in the second year during her first dissection of a cadavar, never to return, some make it to residncy then quit. Certainly we should be vigilant and catch students before they become suicidal. But really, the practice of medicine requires a certain temperament. Some people are built for it and others are not.

> Would you rather have more less trained doctors, or fewer elite doctors in those circumstances?*

Unfortunately there is no middle ground. A doctor is either capable or he/she is not. We simply cant train them halfway. There are countries that have carried out the experiment you propose and attempt to train doctors to 'adequate' levels. The results are not good.
Trump matured too. He doesn't really still want to sexually assault women. He's changed.

Apple would also be aware that various sets of contact data are attached to those accounts, but ignored them. The linking is furthermore also only done on their side via metadata, and not communicated to, or done by, the developer.
I am not sure if you are talking about Visual Studio Code or Visual Studio ( which is still updating)

I'm not talking about the IDE, the IDE runs great. Referencing Visual Studio as bloated was not my intention, i was afraid that Visual Studio Code got bloated. The only thing is that Visual Studio updates always take a long time, that's probably the only thing that is troubling me sometimes. It's been 2:30 hours updating now : https://gyazo.com/b8718354c629fbd6e0c4867dfb95e0eb

I also know Visual Studio is a very big application ( i personally use mostly Asp.Net in combination with c# and Cordova) with many developers ( i heard 1200 developers in a talk with a Product Manager of Visual Studio). But 2:30 hours updating is just a very long time :)
I stopped doing that in the nineties. Are you working life on production systems, do you need some really special dev environment, or why wouldn't you work locally or at least in a local VM?

Yes. With the keyboard in 20-30 angle it forces me not to have my wrists flat on the table. Same with the mouse. The goldtouch mice used to be 45 degrees (and too light-weight for my taste), the newer models seem to be 30 degrees. When I work on the laptop for a week, e.g. while traveling, I need more breaks to rest my hands.

Thanks for the feedback! I agree that the whole site model may have been taken too far. I have plans for adding other "types" that will support other models. As a first simple step, we can add a free-form notes entry that you can put in whatever you want along with a descriptive name.

For android, there is a issue that is being tracked for adding autofill support. iOS already supports this, I just did not have time to get it in for the 1.0.0 release on Android (see https://github.com/bitwarden/mobile/issues/1). Also, I am an iOS user so I do not have a lot of experience with how android "should work" so that makes things a bit slower for me doing development there.
I came to the same conclusion but what good is karma if you don't get down-voted occasionally?

I didn't misunderstand the parent's comment ... I was just providing a data point on the continuum. My experience with Linode has been great. I do realize that there have been security problems with the platform itself.
I can't tell if this sarcastic, but I think its important to point out that much of the challenge and stress of US medical school is self inflicted by the current culture - and leads to bad health outcomes for patients.

Which sounds like a load of bull to me, but is ultimately irrelevant. As if someone wjo didn't even know how to set up an account and didn't have their own devices is going to engage in fraud.

does it still not have flexible split window feature? argh...
The Apple representative also stated that the accounts were the same legal entity (due to the accounts being based on the same bank account). I don't think it's necessarily an error for them not to contact all involved accounts if they share something as private as a bank account.
According to his blog post, the developer sent his blog draft to Apple and hadn't yet heard back.

He then today refreshes Loop Insight / iMore and reads "According to Apple, all attempts to work with the developer have failed".

Was the press release really Apple's answer to the blog draft? Was it meant to torpedo the ongoing "blog negotiation", or independent of it?
Are you sure it's not because those frameworks/libraries were written before generators became available in the latest browsers?

The Apple representative told him he doesn't need to admit to any wrongdoing which is different from saying they believe there was no wrongdoing on Kapeli's part.
According to his blog post [1], it sounds like the other account that was engaged in fraudulent activity was notified, but "his" account was not.

[1]: https://blog.kapeli.com/dash-and-apple-my-side-of-the-story
They blackmailed him into writing a blog post detailing his actions. That's pretty thin soup.
It doesn't matter what he has to admit or not. The issue lies in this sentence:

> What Apple has done: on Friday they told me they’d reactivate my account if I’d make a blog post admitting some wrongdoing.

The "if" is the problem here. Had Apple said "we'll reinstate your account AND please make a blog post stating xyz" everything would be fine. Making it conditional on the post despite being their mistake is just reprehensible.
You could store all your projects on codemade and arrange them into collections. The search function would help you find them. Is that what you want or something more? I built cm to collect my favorite projects and to share with others. I'm all for making it even more useful to other programmers.

Facebook enjoys £11m UK tax credit despite £5bn global profit
Your hypothetical doesn't match reality. The accounts were linked through more than just the CC, and the CC wasn't stolen anyway (presumably Kapeli didn't change the CC on his account, and the charge for the new account was never contested). And there's probably more than just the CC and test devices anyway, Apple probably used things like detecting that a computer used with one account was used to create the other, or the creator of the second account was currently logged in using the apple ID of the first, or something like that (but they probably don't go into detail about this because they don't want to tell fraudsters how to avoid detection).

1.) It's a very time-consuming and hands-on process to train a surgeon. There aren't many other fields that I'm aware of with the same level of intense apprenticeship as surgery (and medicine in general). My first thought after entering medicine was to marvel at how much effort goes into training a single physician. There is a lot of training at between a 1:1 - 1:3 student-preceptor ratio in an effort to produce very high-quality physicians. So, the solution is not exactly as easy as, "well just make more surgeons."

2.) The federal government controls the number of residency slots each year, through Medicare funding for residency programs. I don't pretend to know the details of how it works, but my impression is that to get more residents per year, you need to convince Congress that it's necessary.

3.) Classic chicken-and-egg problem. Any medical student can go into surgery if they want to, unless their performance up till that point is seriously below par. However, there are many other specialties that offer more attractive lifestyles. So to increase the number of students who choose to do surgery, you'd need to find a way of signaling to students that the life of a surgeon isn't all back-to-back divorces, microwave dinners, and 80-90hr work weeks.

The very short video posted in CMAS news doesn't fully reflect the awesomeness of what's been done. The full recordings of one of the competition's days can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyWBhcQJNY4

Truly fantastic video of freediving competition. It reminds me awesome NASA TV with their live streaming of spacewalks.

I've never seen so well-organized coverage of a freediving event: good video quality, deep camera going back and forth to 100+ meters, amazing live comments. Various styles, athletes' errors underwater and at the surface, and breathtaking mystery of free fall – the video carries all the details.

Good to see how the combination of modern technologies can be used to achieve such results with relatively low costs.
I reckon it was a combination of Github and Rails being early adopters at the peak growth of their hype cycle. In the early days of Github it seemed like most of the projects there were Ruby based (Rails users overflowing).
I have around 20-30 instances there and it is a long time since the last fail.

In the past it failed a lot (~1 instance completely fail per month), but I think it is better now.
if you actually need bash, /usr/bin/env bash works; but often something could actually be a sh script with a bit of care. Some Linux distributions have been changing /bin/sh to something other than bash, which helps.

The simple solution to anyone concerned about this is to just stop using Facebook. I've done so and it turned out to be a great decision. Contrary to the belief that you'll be "left out," people can and do get in touch with you for the important things. SMS, email, phone, snapchat, etc all work really well today, and you can get your social news fix from reddit, HN, and elsewhere if you need it. I've gotten measurably happier and more productive once I stopped using FB completely and haven't lost touch with any of my friends.
California doesn't care: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telephone_recording_laws#One-p...) "he California Supreme Court ruled in 2006 that if a caller in a one-party state records a conversation with someone in California, that one-party state caller is subject to the stricter of the laws and must have consent from all callers (cf. Kearney v. Salomon Smith Barney Inc., 39 Cal. 4th 95[38]). "

But it does make it less relevant at least practically.

On another note, I tried to find out where he lives, but it's nowhere to be found on the website. I really prefer business websites that give me at least a full name and a city. I don't even know why – I'm not planning to write/stop by/sue – it just feels shady.

(whois data is similarly anonymous – I'm starting to see Apple's point of view)
It's rethoric because their stated beliefs clash with the facts of reality they admit to in that call.
I believe the app stays available in the Purchases section like you said if the developer "unpublishes" the app, but not if the account or app is "terminated" by Apple.

In addition to Dash (which I'm not able to locate in my Purchases tab), I've noticed this to be the case with apps that violate Apple's rules, like those hidden proxies or emulators that have sprung up over the years and were later removed by Apple.
It's particularly interesting to see that they are cross-checking registered test device UDIDs across developer accounts.

Suddenly UDIDs need to be kept confidential, or a fraudster might add a high profile developer's UDID to their own developer account and then drive it into the ground.

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.

Remember also that there are probably thousands of third party databases out there linking millions of UDIDs with real world identities, as it is only in the last few iOS versions that the device uniqueIdentifier API started returning blanks. Earlier, many apps and adtracking libraries almost certainly would include the UDID in server calls during login etc.
I'm assuming it was completely independent. And when they said attempts failed, this was before the account was terminated. It's not referring to any communication with the developer post-termination.

> But if the Theranos deal panned out, who would have benefited from the investment by the hedgefund?

A hedge fund is an investment fund that pools money from investors and then invests it according to the hedge fund's strategy. So, the primary people who will benefit or lose are the people who invested their money with the hedge fund. Hedge funds also tend to take a percentage of profits as part of their compensation.

I don't see what connection there is to the notion that the system is rigged. No one is obligated to invest in hedge funds and the people who do are aware of the hedge fund's compensation structure. Anyone who invests money is aware that investments have risk and can fail. The purpose of a hedge fund is to invest money to generate (better-than-market) returns, and so the hedge fund will be compensated if that happens. The fact that they're compensated from profits acts as an incentive for them to actually generate profits.

What is so remarkable about that is the Israelites' language and culture remains in tact despite repeated conquering and the death of their state over 2500 years ago. Normally, when a state is conquered, they relinquish their gods and language for their conquerors' but this didn't happen to the Israelites. In fact, quite the opposite - their culture still thrives and remains the most influential by far of any other small, ancient near-Eastern tribe. (Very unfair comparison to a humongous military and financial empire like Rome or Greece.)
I love the medical school analogy "drinking from a firehose" since a lot of the knowledge has to be frontloaded. This makes sense since making errors is less forgiving.

software engineering might be closer to "drinking from a running facet.. forever". I know doctors have to keep learning but I always wondered if it was more or less than engineers after school.
Unlikely, unless it gets leaked. Some of it may come out in court filings (or trial, if it gets that far).
No, you have to have an account that your competitor opened with their own credit card and gave to you, and then you publish an app for that account and buy fraudulent reviews for it.

The account that the fraud happened on, and all the other accounts that appear 'linked' will be closed.

The issue was with the account he gave to his relative, which Apple probably assumed was his account because it used the same credit card and test devices registered to both accounts.
Any other UX improvements you would like to see?
