So they have a massively diversified business that faces many risks, just as others in those sectors do, but which is generally doing pretty well.

One phone will not kill this.

Having just bought a new Samsung washing machine, the story that they are exploding seems to have passed me by.

I'm not a fanboi - I'm typing this on a Nexus 6 and considering another motorola next - I just think that saying this might be fatal is somewhat silly.
I don't know if "banning" is quite right, sometimes the article only exists behind such a structure, but may be worthwhile for the community to discuss. Mods already replace higher quality links after they show up in the discussion. The same could happen by submitting a prominent paywalled source to get the discussion rolling, and then as a better source is made or discovered switch over to it.

And the comments on HN seem to be more coupled to an event than any given particular article, meta-metadiscussion aside.
I know - I was trying to use sarcasm to point how how marketing names don't really mean much in terms of product development and doesn't indicate anything here was rushed out the door.
Yeah, I've made a point about incognito mode in a different comment - I agree, that's probably the best workaround we have right now. I wouldn't encourage 'blogspam', but I'd be surprised if 99% of paywalled articles weren't also covered to more-or-less the same quality elsewhere. The topic that kickstarted this discussion - Samsung's recall of the Note 7 - has been covered widely; theguardian.com is always a reasonable source of general-interest tech stories.
Instruct him to learn system design and UML.

Maybe work on a conceptual project. E.g build a complete UML solution for a HN clone for example.

That'll take care of the analysis part.

If he's enough time then move into discrete maths and algorithms.

That'll sandwich the actual coding , after which it'll be a short effort once he's got access to a computer
Haha, sounds a lot like and reminds me of assembly back in school. Sit there for an hour or two to hear how well the rowing team or the rugby team went, listen to a speech or two by some coaches and be generally thoroughly bored through the whole thing.

Never quite understood the purpose of those assemblies, and I still don't.
> As far as I know this asked blog post was never published and then Apple realease it's response.

From the blog post:

> Update: Just to make it clear, I have complied with Apple’s request and have sent a blog post draft approximately 30 minutes after this phone call ended. I have since not received any contact from Apple in any way, and they did not respond to my calls. Their recent statements come as a shock as I thought we were working together to resolve this issue.

Given that Apple's statement left out several important facts (arguably, to paint a rosy picture of their behavior), I'm inclined to believe the developer here.
Why do batteries need to be unique for each model? Some laptop lines (e.g. Lenovo) share removable batteries among models with similar power needs. Same used to be true of phones which had removable batteries from the same phone vendor.
So, given that my question was:

> for someone using only macOS/Mac OS X, how is this an improvement over the built-in file tagging?

The answer is "it doesn't"?

I'm not saying it doesn't have a market, I'm trying to understand if it offers anything above the OS included functionality for someone purely in the Apple ecosystem.

> It happened in Brazil in the first years of the XXI century, when the government forced compulsory licensing of anti-HIV drug patents [1] so it could produce it cheaply on their own laboratories.

The mistake rather lies in the fact that the patents were granted. If you want competition instead of a monopoly dictating the prizes you should better not allow patents in this area.
FWIW, it still works fine for me.

Use the web link at the top. Even better is that you get an AMP version of the story.
Yes. That is not unreasonable. This is the same reasoning as when a shareholder or employee uses a company card for personal transactions or uses a personal card for corporate transactions, and pierces the corporate veil.
I like this suggestion as a pragmatic compromise. There could even be consideration of weighting paywalled articles slightly lower in the general hn algorithm.
From the old mainframe days, when you bought machines by, basically subscription --- you paid for a support contract and the hardware was usually provided as part of that.

Different grades of support contract gave you different classes of machine, but frequently all the hardware was the same, just with bits disabled. If you upgraded your contract, they'd send a tech round who would flip some switches inside and, say, double your clock speed, or enable some more CPUs, etc.

The web link at which top? The link on news.ycombinator.com, which I was responding to, goes to a paywall teaser.
So having this mentality, HN should also ban any links to non-free books ( e.g. amazon ), links to apps and any other websites that offer a paid service / content, which you have to consume in order to be an active participant in the conversation, happening in the comments.

I don't agree with this position.
I'm pretty happy with Servermx [1].

It's hosted in EU, has IMAP/POP/ActiveSync (AS is not mentioned on website since it's still in beta, but has worked since last year reliably), Cal&CardDAV (CardDAV offers full HQ contact photos).

The prices are quite reasonable (1.8€ monthly for 10GB mailbox). Webmail interfaces are SOGo, Squirrelmail, Roundcube. Support tickets are answered instantly (couple hours).

You can migrate existing mail via an IMAP importer (logs into target IMAP server with your credentials and pulls email to servermx).

They offer a 30 day trial to check it out (without custom domain part for the trial), after that you can upgrade it to a full paid account, which supports custom domains.

They'll get the work done, at the expense of their sanity.

Also, market inefficiency works here too, I think - it can take years before a company tanks. So productivity drop can go unnoticed forever (even when a company fails, there will be enough other factors to blame). Not to mention that marketing can successfully paper over all kinds of crap; mediocre is the standard in our industry.

How to Fulfill the Empty Promises of Devops
If you'd like to know more about how it's different, Robert Reich talked about it recently at the Commonwealth Club https://www.commonwealthclub.org/events/2016-09-27/robert-re... and UC Berkeley Sociologist Arlie Hochshchild spent 5 years researching it (https://www.amazon.com/Strangers-Their-Own-Land-Mourning-ebo...), here's a Mother Jones article about it http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2016/08/trump-white-blue....
If Google refers you to the article from its search results, you can see the whole thing. Try searching for the headline!
Yes they actually do.

The manual way is just to use a desktop email app like mail.app, outlook or Thunderbird to move the emails. That's what I did to migrate from Google apps, worked surprisingly well for even my very large amount of email.

You can also use this way: https://support-en.mailbox.org/knowledge-base/article/audrig...
You keep repeating this theory that the 'new' way for adjusting mirrors solves all problems, and simply ignore that it introduces different blind spots that small vehicles (such as motorbikes or bicycles) can disappear into.

Given that the article is about cyclist safety, and how it's improved by training drivers to look behind them in their blind spot, I find the irony of you suggesting this 'new' method to be amazing.
> in the context of a larger company, all-hands are quite important to remind people of the company culture and to connect individuals to the mission.

In a larger company the culture is a thing that probably nobody should try to
connect to, and mission is usually long lost in the transition from small
company to a large one.

> Spend long enough in a growing company and you'll see people who have no idea why they're important, who slack, who feel they aren't heard, etc.

And gathering all of them together every six months for no good reason so they
can be "celebrated" by some guy they have nothing to do at all will make them
feel heard or important?

> Even in a smaller startup, celebrating things like "we got a major new client" or "we hit this important milestone" can make people refocus and rekindle their passion for the work.

In small company "we got a major client" is an important thing. In a big
company, a regular employee couldn't care less, as it won't affect him/her in
any meaningful way.
> Nowadays there are a lot of options that would be just as good, or better.

Would like to know what you think they are, because new efforts by major companies are still using OCaml for lots of things, including the design and and implementation of new languages.

Huh really? I wonder why it's different in Norway? Apple-cerified service providers offer on-the-spot replacements elsewhere in the world (at least in the UK, US and Aus)

Apple in Norway offers IT departments (which manage over 1000 iOS devices) boxes of replacement iPhones so they can swap devices immediately themselves. I would be extremely surprised if this wasn't also available to AASPs http://www.apple.com/no/support/programs/ssa/
This.

I'm one of the people affected; I am already shut out of the discussion, and when I am not on a fast unmetered broadband connection, the wait and the advertising thrown at me instead of the content that was promised feels like I am being punished for following HN links, every time.

I'm not suggesting it is a perfect solution, but a heads-up would be strictly better than what we have now.

(I don't much like the idea of copying paywalled content elsewhere, as suggested by other commenters - there are obvious legality issues, and also it seems morally dubious at best; the content provider has made the decision that they don't want non-paying customers to read their stuff, and however we feel about this, we ought to respect it - just as my decision not to pay for some kinds of content (and hence not receive that content) should be respected as a valid choice instead of being punished.)
Snapchat Crashing Reasons – How to Fix Snapchat Crashing Problem
TBH, I don't see how a link to a book page on amazon would result in a productive discussion on HN - is there a precedent? I wouldn't ban apps/websites that offer a paid service, only those that require one. And I'm willing to row back slightly from an outright ban, as I've said in other comments.

OK. So it's the old "Google for the URL or title" and you may get the content thing.

Am I the only one who thinks this sucks? If so, I will bite my lip and shut up.

I believe in the open Internet. I don't even run an ad blocker for sites that aren't complete assholes with their ads.

But this is just stupid.

I generally like the idea of automating recruitment. It "feels" like there ought to be low hanging fruit here.

I'm not sure if you'd have legal issues with selling on names unless they've specifically opted in. If not a simpler route to market would be just to bundle the names and sell them as data.

Would you be making sure that the listed names are actually available for work? Or are you simply exporting your LinkedIn contacts?
I was not able to find any answer to my question in your comment. I assume you assume the wrong things, also you seem to draw conclusions too fast.
I don't buy this. Apple didn't always have their own SoC, and support didn't miraculously get better with the iPhone 4 when they introduced it.
that could work, if you already know all the people you want to invite.
but if you want to make people outside your circle aware of your event? like a hackathon or a party. This is the only thing that keeps me on FB, and it's very frustrating
I think "exploding" was an unfortunate choice of words, and that was supposed to mean they are selling a lot(they seem to be popular in Brazil and are considererd high end).

Five Useful Things You Can Do with a Burner Phone Number
This articles how information transparency (FOIA) can boost overall market, even if individual players may not find that compelling (e.g. Sequoia Capital).

Similar past examples:

1. Employment at will. Individual company may be in disadvantage, but it is one of the main advantage of Silicon Valley ecosystem.

2. California Labor Code 2870. Tl;dr: Any IP created in your spare time on your own equipment in area unrelated to employer is always yours. A lot of companies may prefer simple assume all IP is their while you work there, but it can't hurt startup creation.

Future hypothetical examples:

1. Information transparency of VC market. It gotten better, but still a lot of things are private. It creates informational asymmetry that favor incumbent power players than newcomers.

2. Limited access to investment opportunities. Very, very few people can invest to VC. Likely way less than 0.01% of global population can do it. Even if you are wealthy individual there is no way to give $10k for 10 years to any top-tier USA VC.

What if there would be equivalent of stock exchange for VC/startups. Likely it would have very limited liquidity and very different rules, but it may bring economy growth on next level.
Oof, that is too real.
True, I did applications with redux and without immutable too, even wrote my own syntax magic for that: https://www.npmjs.com/package/babel-plugin-check-data-access

What redux misses as well are derived/computed properties, I think mobX has them: https://mobxjs.github.io/mobx/
I have no problem with asking them to lower their prices, but does anyone know what it actually cost Pfizer to actually produce, package, and ship? I would assume with the amount of money attributed to this product that initial investment/research costs are paid but is there room in current charges to cover new research into the same? Plus if heavily discounted it would be an expectation that someone else would see an increased price to cover for the discount another has received; unless of course we are looking for Pfizer to offset the cost of this particular drug by charging other drug users higher prices of obfuscate the discounts impact.

When it comes down to it I am more against using children as pawns to make political statements. If the other drug is more cost effective then people should just skip the Pfizer drug until they in turn adjust pricing for the market.
Interesting, didn't realize the Hacker News had a paywall workaround built in.

Let's just hope Rupert Murdoch doesn't sue us all.
Because everybody wants to be special. Size, weight, optimalization, screen edge corner angle, etc. It is a senseless, unsustainable development practice that creates much waste each year. Nobody seems to look at the future, everybody just wants to win in the here and now.

4 degrees later, we are all gone. The batteries remain, for a while. In 2135 CE, the last Samsung battery too will catch fire, starting an unstoppable wildfire that will consume much of Eurasia, along with whoever survived the previous social collapse. Then, only ashes will remain.

Fuck the pandas, save ourselves.
That was before flagship phones needed to become thinner and bigger every few months. Can't have commonality of parts if your six months old battery is thicker than the whole new phone.

(There's still plenty of phones with replaceable, more-or-less standardized batteries available… but it's $50-200 phones that nobody wants to buy because they're not sexy enough. Even though they've been fast enough for years…)
Or walls.. it's like automation for etiquette.
It's neither difficult nor impossible to read.

Some people refuse to read any paywalled articles or attempt to work around them, and then insist that Hacker News should cater to them by not allowing those articles to be posted to begin with.

And yet discussion of those articles exists despite their objections, so obviously the problem isn't that the articles aren't accessible, or can't generate discussion, but that people are offended at the existence of paywalls and want their ideals to take priority over what can and can't be discussed here.
Also consider that blacks are probably the group hardest hit by illegal immigration.

It seems they're bad if the hourly rate you get is lower than what you expect/want. Otherwise, it seems like the sort of thing that you can look into if you're strongly interested (go through the process, see what it's like, see if there are any problems, etc), then back away from if it seems it's not working out.

What caught my attention when I heard about them was how heavy-handed they were in promoting/maintaining their brand (positive reviews magically appearing, BS/fake comments, etc). While it could just be tasteless marketing/PR and brand management, it could also be suggestive of slimy, untrustworthy, full of it, etc.

Yes, Samsung is going to suffer, that's certain. But failing, as in going bankrupt? No. They are simply too important for South Korea to let them go bankrupt.

But you backpedalled on that point already as well, and no one, even the biggest fanboy, would argue that they are not going to have large problems. Like every large company somewhere on its track.

end of samsung, come this time next year most of the public won't even remember the issue. then consider that many just tune this type of news out anyway if they have had no issues.

tech sites tend to over exaggerate impact of technologies because many fail to associate the fact common interest brought them to the discussion site in the first place
To be fair, Samsung sells a hell of a lot more than smartphones. They're a giant conglomerate that sells everything under the sun, and manufactures for half the electronics industry.

The argument being countered by showing the origin of the 2016 laureates is that immigration is bad for the destination country; on the contrary, immigrants have fantastic achievements, both as scientists and as entrepreneurs. This is not about the wellbeing of the immigrants themselves. Arguably, tough (yet reasonable) immigration policies act as somewhat of a barrier, causing "good" immigrants to flow in, and restricting the bad. I mean, you can't argue that on average, the population of prospective immigrants is any better than the indigenous American citizens, but those who make it past the immigration hoops are, evidently, pretty good.

If all immigration barriers were to be removed tomorrow, the influx of third world population would crush the USA - or any other western state - as we know it.

The challenge of the immigration system is being tough but fair, where you let more of the useful immigrants pass while filtering out the rest. The American system is not there; it's tough alright, but it's still missing on a huge amount of human potential.
