Well, of course it's hard to come by a dual-sim iPhone. You need to look for other brands.
Didn't NIST just say two factor via mobile is a "bad idea"? Have Norway or Estonia responded?

EDIT: Thank you whoever downvoted an honest question that added to the discussion
What changes made by US Presidents could have such a drastic effect on part of California's government? Outside of funding of researchers, which I doubt went down much during Bush and Clinton, I thought the federal government had (and has) relatively minor influence over the University of California.
> I am curious about the kind of usage a fully loaded Mac Pro is inadequate.

Financial sanity, mostly. Those things cost $10,000+
I used it for the language manual used on our compiler design lectures, thesis monthly reports and final thesis.

Nowadays I just use Markdown, Word or Libre Office.

In some projects at work we used Docbook and DITA, coupled with text processor like applications.

Where Latex really shines is writing papers full of mathematical or scientifical notation, with a huge references section at end.

I don't see a place for it on the office workflows.
I think Microsoft's move to add bash on Windows was very well calculated. They have an OS that runs on a huge number of devices giving buyers options, with mainstream driver support, compatibility with most commercial software, and good development tools for the platform. By adding bash gives OSX users who are dissatisfied with the latest Apple hardware a chance to jump ship. At the same time Windows/Linux dual-boot users who also happen to be gamers will find themselves using Linux less.
Thanks for the SuitSupply store suggestion! Hadn't heard of them before.
Not exactly a novel idea, the optimus maximus keyboard has been a concept design in 2005 and saw a limited production run in 2007. And it supported colors to boot.

I think its main problem was that it was too expensive.
Exactly - great you can't see it on radar, but you can hear it from 50km away.

I guess anti-air applications you can imagine this should be fine.
The Price of GPL
It uses the native hypervisor in macOS, so it can be smaller than VirtualBox.
What you describe is far more often a CS guy looking for a way to apply his CS education instead of asking whether he's identified the correct problem, and frequently that's because, having only an academic CS background, it doesn't occur to him there might be a more serious underlying problem that has a better solution.
Show HN: Huge list of React.js projects
What a confused comment. You're saying its bad because it's borrowed hastily from other languages, and a better solution is... borrowing features from Erlang?
> Do Catholics believe that definition of faith you quoted because it first appeared in their catechism or because their catechism quotes it from Hebrews 11?

Well, they believe it because somebody told them to. Then, if you're asking why that formulation and not another one, then yes, it comes from Hebrews 11. But even if that passage justified the Catholic one, wouldn't that just shift the question: if they believe so and so because it comes from Hebrews 11, then why do they believe in Hebrews 11?

I mean "impossible" in natural terms, according to the believers themselves. If it were possible, but just a rare occurrence, then it wouldn't justify building a whole faith system on it, don't you agree? For a Christian the resurrection must have happened despite being impossible: the impossibility it's exactly where it derives its value from. The impossibility is cherished, treasured.

Contrast now with a scientific attitude. It has happened? Therefore it's possible and (until further understanding) it doesn't prove anything except its own possibility. And understanding means discovering the mechanical, reproducible and predictable nature of the process. Any aspect that is not mechanical, reproducible and predictable will have to be ignored by the scientific inquiry. Even if it contains the right answer.
Myth or no, has any business or user come under fire for just using hackintosh systems? Not to my knowledge.

However, making hackintosh a commercial business (Psystar), actually selling pre-configured, ready-to-go systems, yes, that is a law suit.

I'm not sure how to answer your second question. Yes, but so what?
Could he denounce his US citizenship and move to, say, Moscow or China?
if you allow enough alternative keyboard layouts for exotic unicode characters then you probably won't have muscle memory for it. So cycling through blocks with hunt and peck might be useful for rarely used characters.

Or as accelerator key hints for application-specific keyboard shortcuts for applications that you don't use on a daily basis. Instead of having to dig through 3 levels of modal dialogs or menus you could just look at your keyboard to find the right shortcut.
It's actually much better this way, to prevent its mechanical damage, scratching etc.
Developing artificial intelligence using .NET
An important correction: don't use TexMaker, it's no longer actively developed. Use TexStudio (http://www.texstudio.org/), the fork/continuation of that project. Much more polished, performant, and many more convenient features.
You saying "I raise you... Donald Trump" doesn't do anything for me. You need to be a lot more specific.

From what I see, Trump is not even close to the beheading, bombing, driving-trucks-through crowds religious fanatics, who are supported by large percentages of the followers of the same religion.
> Using SIM cards in mobile phones seems antiquated.

In the U.S., LTE is the first time that CDMA phones have had sim cards, that's ~2 years ago.

The software solution (using IMEI and PUK) is the old technology. It's less secure; verizon and sprint will charge you ~$40 activation fees, etc.
The keyboard is still one of (the?) most efficient mechanisms for interacting with a computer. Many applications that aren't text-entry centric can increase user productivity by using keyboard shortcuts for functionality (think of a video editing application: fast-forward, back up 2 sec, mark a segment, etc...). However these function suffer greatly from discoverability issues. If you could put the functions directly on the keyboard, you'd be able to find these shortcuts much faster, and be able to be more productive. Once you've learned the shortcuts, the e-ink becomes less useful, but during that initial discovery (and memorization) phase, it would be extremely helpful.
Unless you personally know some heads of some major carriers you can't say that and also it's unlikely carriers do things to reduce friction.

Unlocked phones are still relatively rare in the US so I don't agree with your second point either.

Network operators trust Gemalto, etc to write the SIM card software and also the provisioning and tower software. They also trust the phone manufacturer software as they rigorously test it before it's pushed to it's subs. That's actually why updates take so long (excl apple, of course).

Note that I have actually worked for some major carriers and have been in discussions with VPs discussing this very issue. See my other answer further down the thread.
Revenge of the tabloids
I think that was for SMS, not specifically mobile.
This is patent nonsense.
Another well documented set of general-purpose classes are the KOMAscript document classes, catering mostly to European document conventions [1].

They are both equipped with GTX 970.
Every time I mention the biggest flaw of the Linux desktop people freak out and point me to Qt. I know QT but the effort of making a half decent GUI app in QT is way above the effort it takes with Cocoa.

I very much remember the development and push of cocoa and the slow transition away from carbon and quickdraw.

I believe NSDrawer was something that first showed up in third party code and then was adopted in Cocoa.

Apple has constantly refined their toolkit by looking at well designed apps. Everything on Linux seems to be doing the exact opposite.

Although GTK was developed out of Gimp it's so much easier to make a good looking photo editor on Mac than it is on any other platform.

Until we sit down and design a good looking and easy to use GUI toolkit we can forget about decent Gui applications on Linux. (with a focus on easy to use)
The bad idea is being sent a (potentially interceptable) SMS with a code.

The Estonian method is described as using a private key present on the SIM card, just like a normal smart card used for authenticating/signing.
That would be amazing. As it is now, I have to search for stuff and I no longer have a clear picture where stuff is and just how much stuff I have. Therefore, when I'm searching for a document and it does not come up, I'm not sure if it's because it doesn't exist, or just because I did a wrong query.

Yes, an explorer.exe interface for Google Drive would be a huge win. That's also why I avoid using it, and keep everything I can in Dropbox instead.
Not just you. Tables are a huge mess, and for every package I add to my .tex file to fix a problem, two new problems pop up.. (oh you added package a at the end? It will fail, because package b loaded package C which defined the same macro names, and of course every macro is global...
Contrarians are usually wrong, because there are simply so many ways to be wrong. That doesn't mean the consensus is usually right, however.
If I remember correctly this was actually one of the main differences with the XEmacs fork.

Some of the features are already fuzzy on my mind, but I think one reason I used to use it instead of the original Emacs was the improved GUI experience.

Last time I have used it was around 10 years ago.
I remember seeing it on Thinkgeek.com - $1500.
I think so. It is a natural thing if you are in a foreign place to celebrate your heritage. And over time it often becomes more distinct and pronounced as it becomes more isolated from pressures to adapt.

I guess there is hope the influx helps to rejuvenate and ground the expat Syrian culture.

Integration into the German society on the other hand is also a critical. Labeling does not help people to feel integrated and to step forward when needed. Like a few weeks ago when a terrorist cell with a bomb maker was found due to actions from that community. That took guts and trust from their side.
I do a lot more than you'd think, usually it's because I use the laptop as an extra battery to give my phone a quick boost while I'm traveling.

It also uses a lot of battery to use your phone as a wifi hotspot, using USB to share the internet connection is a lot more economical (you're actually charging the phone while it's happening.)
In addition to my sibling commenter, there is also:

http://www.airqualitynow.eu/

However, city-specific readings are not always reliable, as they are based on a very localized meter in one particular place that can rarely reveal the overall situation for an entire city. I prefer air pollution maps that show the overall state for a big region, like the one I linked to.
Yep. It's exactly like that for me.

And the packages interact with each other in surprising and unexpected ways, and you will almost always end up researching some strange 80s-era TeX commands that are still in there.

And nothing is well documented and you will spend way more time on it than you should.

But it's still better than writing it in *Office, I guess.
"The west has very little responsibility in Syria for example."

Is that a joke ?

Also, nowhere did I claim the west created all the problems in the east.
It depends of the company, in a lot of places is really 8 hours but there are also some companies that you work 10h/day or more. Especially in the consulting area. Sometimes is just to show off, and people spend the time at their office doing a lot of things that are not work related.
I don't think the number of features is too problematic if it is properly gated. Python having 'http.server' or a Fractions module or tkinter or a matrix multiplication operator comes off as a pleasant surprise, it doesn't hamper the onboarding experience.

However, async, typing syntax, multiple string formatting syntaxes, and so on all do. The ship is being helmed irresponsibly in this regard. Letting decorator and keyword asyncio coexist, as well as threads and multiprocess, just feels like a huge mess.
Ah, yes photos are difficult. I have used some of the pixel art upscalers, but not for prints, and I haven't used waifu2x before. They can be almost magical in some situations, and Japanese woodblocks seem like a pretty good application for waifu2x.

I'd worry a little about textured background and what happens in areas of high detail, but I'm speculating. You can see resolution artifacts in the waifu2x examples. But those source images are tiny -- it may behave completely differently on a 20MP image. It also depends on what material you print onto. Canvas and some popular art papers have a lot of texture that can hide the 1-2 pixel sized artifacts.

If you are taking the photos yourself, one option you might consider is to take overlapping photos of sub-portions of the woodblocks and stitch them together using a panorama editor like Hugin to get a source image that is at or above your target resolution.

If you have no other options but upscaling, do some experiments with the cheapest printing service you can find that will print 24x36 inches at 300dpi. There are a bunch online that will mail you prints very fast. If you're in the US, Costco does ridiculously cheap photo prints at 24x36. Experiment with upscalers and see what works best for the photos you have. You might find that you don't like any of them, or you might find out that you can't tell much difference between waifu2x and generic upscaling, or you might find out that waifu2x is perfect and unbeatable.
Thank you for taking the time to make things better.
I would think so but I don't really know the ins and outs of wiring. I think about 5 or so years ago they remodeled the dorm and made it so you didn't need the custom cable.

They had a classroom in that dorm I taught in and remember near the end of the semester seeing signs telling people to remember to return their cable.
If anyone is interested, there is a very interesting talk at Defcon 21 called "The Secret Life of SIM cards". They managed to run their own network and sold SIM cards at the conf for EFF. https://simhacks.github.io/defcon-21/

iMessage working on both my systems, it was not a pain in the ass at all. The only thing I did was make sure my two boxes had unique serial numbers.
It means nothing. Had a permanent position in a big Portuguese company and everyone in the whole team was working 12 hours plus per day.

Is uncommon to have people in Portugal working less than 40 hours. Tried to find a study to put some numbers in context of the reality I know. In the link Under "Duration of work" you can see that 78.6% of people work either 40 hours or more.

I dearly wish that Apple would just go back to licensing their OS. I get the feeling, other than portables, they really don't want to make Macintoshes. Heck, even a $500[1] package would be fine. Put out a list of acceptable hardware like the old NeXT list[2].

I know they won't, but I still have dreams. I do wonder what was the real story when Steve Jobs made his public comments on clones[3] and what the price was they refused[4].

1) Lord knows I paid more for NeXTSTEP back in the day.

2) It was kinda fun to call a number and get a fax back with the list of hardware you could buy.

An interesting idea, but I just don't look at my keyboards. Even so, I can't help feeling this is a much better approach than replacing F-keys with the Mac Touchbar. The touchbar could have been a great idea if above the pre-existing keys.

However, if it was a Model M chassis, sculpted full travel loud mechanical keys, E-Ink, and a modern selection of media keys and volume I'd probably buy one. Regardless of how silly the cost.

Then I'd still not look at it until doing something in Photoshop or some other program I use only rarely!

Edit: It also strikes me as odd not to E-Ink the Command and Option keys so you can use it on Windows too.
One thing they (intentionally) left out was including a Makefile. This is one of the "Good Enough" practices that I also include. It doesn't matter if it is a Makefile or another master script or tool. What is important is that you have a manifest for how each derived data file was generated. And it should be able to be executed w/o arguments to have the entire analysis run from the raw/primary data.

This has saved me many times in the past.
The Mac Platform Decline
1) You're trying to justify one messed up thing with another. Sorry, just because your neighbor killed someone, doesn't mean it's OK for you to do it. Both are wrong. I'm not a fan of Christianity either, and thankfully, it's on its way out in most of Europe.

2) "Relatively liberal" Qatar is not, not compared to France or Belgium.

3) Don't care. The percentages of the radical supporters of the crazy/violent jihadists are still high among muslims.

And yeah, good luck finding polls of the Christians/jews where half of them who want to murder those who quit their religion.
The OP is referring to "visited links", not the style of the unfollowed links.

Not having a followed link style in this context degrades the usability of the website because you have to rely on your memory of which links you have followed on the list and which you have yet to see. This is an important and little remembered point in the current interaction design "dark age", as Bruce Tognazzini puts it, and Norman et. al. <a href="https://www.fastcodesign.com/3053406/how-apple-is-giving-des... recently written about</a>.

(It is of course also true that the unfollowed link style is not very clear)
if it helps, I've been able to differentiate both type of links using plain Firefox

The trick is to always override the color options in Firefox settings

p/s: I'm starting to follow people in HN through this way too, and keeping up with my weekly reading materials (xkcd, manga, etc)

But I took it one step above by disabling colors altogether & sees the web as (mostly) wall of light text on dark background
Was it a case of confusing correlation & causation?
Have you considered eBay? Mechanical keyboards are durable so used is likely to be worthwhile. I got my Kinesis for $170, which is much less than the new price.

Instance size varies a lot because we've got a lot of different MySQL workloads, some with very different configurations.

Remember we're backing up each database separately though, not the entire MySQL instance at once. Each database's backup is in a separate file.
To be fair, "multi-" here typically means "dual-", but even w/o going to Alibaba, they're definitely out there:

When I had to travel a lot, I had a small booklet of sim-cards that I could pop into my single-SIM phone (this was the 90s), in most regions I visited to get (much) cheaper rates than I was getting for world-wide roaming from AT&T at the time (this was before AT&T was really Southwestern Bell). Except Japan. (Curse you, and your island-nation cell-phone local-only standards, Japan!)
Have you tried comparing the performance of asyncio based network requests versus multithreaded requests? And also compared the relative complexity of the code?

I have never used asyncio in Python, mainly because the very use case you described is solved with multitheading, but that doesn't mean it's solved best that way of course.
Huh? Never heard of QML?
I use a configuration like this (with Proxmox) to send content to the various TVs in my house (HDMI over Cat 5e). 4 cheap GPUs in the machine allow for up to 4 VMs running OS X (my preferred OS for media) to simultaneously play HD content, run classic emulated games, web browsing, etc. (haven't bothered with UHD yet, and probably won't for a while).

Of course, a lot of HD content can run with very modest specs (as long as the codecs are accelerated on the GPU), but for occasional content that requires CPU decoding or players/sites that aren't yet supported on standalone devices (Apple TV, Roku, etc), it's a really nice solution. Plus, it keeps each TV very clean in terms of cables and hardware.

I've done hackintosh on bare metal in the past, but even if I were setting up a single-headed hackintosh now, I'd still go the VFIO route - it makes updates much less stressful since you can quickly roll back to a snapshot if you break something.
Lisbon is an awesome place to live, the weather is awesome (today we have 27C and it's almost November), the food and nightlife is great and somewhat cheap compared with other european cities, but it's far away from becoming a tech capital.

This all sounds great. I'll definitely look into it for myself. However, coming from academic biology (I am a bioinformatician) where most of my collaborators won't even know what git is, this is just not a realistic solution. If Sharelatex (I actually wrote my phd thesis on sharelatex) or Overleaf (I used for my last publication) have a nice built-in GUI that does all of this auto-magically, I think a lot of people from the biological fields will probably start using it.
I understand not wanting to pay the Apple tax, but I think what makes a desktop experience great is the whole package.

How hardware and software come together in an unified user experience.

This is why people talk about Spectrums, Commodores, Ataris, Amigas, Macs, and game consoles.

This is why hardly anyone talks about nice memorable experiences with PC clones.
Soft of, but it was more precisely the Bayesian fallacy.
The aesthetic doesn't work for me, can't explain why, and I know a building is a building, but the dichotomy between old and new, subjective and objective, it just clashes.

I don't assert they should or need to appeal to my aesthetic, nor that the aesthetic value in any way impacts their ability or success.

Just a personal opinion and observation.
In addition to what evanelias said, a logical dump also means we can load it into a MySQL instance running a different storage engine as well. In our case, it allows us to take a mysqldump from an InnoDB instance and load it into a MyRocks instance if we wish.
This probably doesn't apply to "professional or managerial" roles
Ask HN: What is your preferred choice/style/frequency of note-taking?
I have a notebook in which I dump all information with an index on the last page. It is some Japanese indexing style that I read about sometime ago. I also use Cornell style note-taking for meetings, etc. With the given diversity of HN users, I would like to know what is your method?
I'm curious about that as well. I would love to get rid of Parallels (even despite my having recently upgraded to the Sierra-compatible version) because I find things to be too slow in general.
