If that's the case, then your specialized economic role in society is purely as a professional breeder. Other people would need to see that you are contributing your fair share by raising your own family, and be willing to supply you with food, shelter, etc in recognition of this.

In fact people generally don't recognize this value. If I thought to myself, "That's a fair division of labor - I'll do the work, and instead of raising my own kids I'll support this guy's family" - my own genes would be removed from the pool pretty quickly (unless group selection pressure were so intense that this was the only way we could out-compete the neighboring villages).

On the other hand - if you were willing to raise my kids alongside your own (as a teacher or babysitter), there's a much better chance I'd see that as a fair exchange of value.

The first (and presumably namesake) company is Ant Financial https://www.antgroup.com, which is described as:

Some of the video games need a better GPU than the stock that comes with Macs. The Mac Pro since it was based on ATX standards would take a PCIe NVidia/AMD/ATI video card that could be replaced.

Tell me about a modern Mac made today that can exchange the GPU for a faster one.

If the Macs can't exchange the video card for a better one, they are losing the gaming market. More Windows than Mac games, and Bootcamp can install Windows on an Intel Mac to run Windows games but if the GPU is too slow for the top of the line games, might as well buy a cheaper PC with expandable video cards instead.

I've found Linux Mint or Debian on a PC ATX gaming system runs faster than on an Intel Mac with OSX and video games.

Apple is losing their customer base by doing a classic blunder that Atari, Commodore, etc tried, they don't know the target market of users. Apple is losing the Mac gaming market, due to price losing the Educational market, due to not having a pressure sensitive pen the Artist and creative market, and while Apple has the developer, web designer, and programmer market with Macbook Pros for Startups as the Macbook can book OSX, Windows, and Linux with Bootcamp, they've forgotten of their other markets that left a void that others like Google, Amazon, Microsoft are filling.
My advice is this: if there is any question whatsoever, then get out now. If you're sure that staying will be a benefit to your government, then stay.

What is your view on the control Google is exerting over the ad ecosystem here? It is pretty noticeable how the Facebook Audience Network is not an approved network. What about all of the third party analytics providers? Seems a bit lopsided if Google gets all that data and nobody else does, no?

As a buy side guy, I'm worried that this is venturing into anti-competitive monopolistic territory if left unchecked. what are the alternatives for publishers? Don't use AMP and go out of business as your mobile traffic is slowly choked off?

Don't get me wrong, I think publishers dug their own grave here, but this is not the internet I want as a user and as an advertiser. No one company should be able to exert that much control.
I remember using XDMCP ~20 years ago for this (underpowered machine as thin-client to beefy server, with graphical login). Does LTSP have additional features or better performance?
I was in a similar situation. Graduated with a PhD in computational biology in 2009. Applied for hundreds of jobs. No one was hiring. I was 36 years old, in debt, with no work experience, and I missed my window to get work experience and I've been unhireable ever since.

First get some help, there's medication that can help with anxiety. Right now you're in a death spiral: You can't sleep which causing stress, which is causing you to loose sleep. Some medication will calm you down enough where you can start to get a grip back on reality. This dread you are feeling is stress induced so you need to deal with that first.

Second, you want to think about finding a lifeline, something to give you some stability. You don't need to shoot for the stars on a dream job right now. Maybe that includes doing some lab-assistant work at the university. See what kinds of clubs there are in your school, maybe consulting clubs or investment banking clubs, or entrepreneur clubs.

$20,000 may feel like a lot of debt, but many Americans have hundreds of thousands in debt when they graduate. Just make sure you dial back and live under your means.

Finally, you still have time on your side. I didn't start my PhD until I was 30 and while I felt my life was over at 36 when I graduated and I resented the years off sacrifice for no payoff, there are opportunities out there. I took a very low paying job to get back on my feet, and eventually I founded a startup that has had some minor success so far. What'a important to turning the corner is to find a ray of hope. If you can do that, whatever you're going through today doesn't feel that bad.

From all of this I also met my wonderful wife and I can't imagine my life without her. I would have ever met if life had 'worked out' as I had planned. Sometimes these hard roads bring you to the place you really need to be. Stick with it and I promise you that you'lol get back to being in a good place. This is just like having a cold or the flu. It will pass.
learning from other people's values, yes.

but a university is not a place to push morality. it's a place of education and ideas, and as a university, you can't stand by some values and curse others, because you're a campus of free thought and exchange.

the moment that you express some preference towards some ideas and start labeling others as bad or horrible, you push your own morality.

stop making it seem like I'm arguing for anything more than that.

I just went there last week for a conference. Man there's tons of development going on. Road construction, looks like a new building being built every 3-4 blocks.

I usually hit all the food joints when I visit a place. Thought all there was going to be was grade A bbq. Was I mistaken, food scene is amazing, would rate near same caliber as SF (and as expensive).

Hotel rates are crazy, spoke with some locals and they said it's cause of all the conferences. Averaged ~300 a night (fri-thurs).

Apple has nearly always been happy to throw potential customers away, if those potential customers aren't potential high-margin customers. This preference goes all the way back to the original Macintosh. The Apple Way is to sell products that can command premium prices to whatever segment of the market is willing to pay those prices, and leave price-sensitive customers for their competitors to fight over.
What if unemployment is not the problem but the solution?

> But the ordering of the facebook timeline is intentionally emphasizing self confirming propagandistic nonsense: We already live in a highly propagandized facebook steam. Just remove that (highly profitable) bias from the algorithm.

We agree on the problem, just not the solution.

Let's consider two sub-problems. First, the advertising-based business model benefits from compulsive behavior and engaging, viral content. The most engaging content is not always the most true, and the second problem: some of it is entirely fabricated.

Put these two parts together and you get the current situation. Now we see many crocodile tears shed over the fact that the second problem spread so much untrue content that it may have swung the election. Whether that's realistic or not, it creates an excellent opportunity to establish an authority that determines which stories are true, or how true a story is. Who wouldn't want that job? What a way to make a difference. So we have this:

> Under such circumstances, ultimately one side will have to force its view of reality on the other.

And what better way to do that than by establishing a ministry of truth. (Whether established by the government or private enterprise is practically immaterial.) But might it be worth stepping back for a moment first?

If the only way democracy can work is by the elite directly controlling the perception of truth, then what is it that democracy still offers?

> Just remove that (highly profitable) bias from the algorithm.

Sell that to the shareholders! "Engagement is down but our metrics show the electorate is slightly better informed due to our efforts this quarter." So here you get at the first problem, which is that Facebook's monetization is directly at odds with many of the things that people should be doing to make a democracy work, such as getting off Facebook, reading a history book, engaging with their neighbors, and so on. Of course nobody is talking about solving this, because none of the solutions to this problem allow anyone to amass money or power.

Leaks can be client-side, too. Outdated or zero-day exploits could easily allow attackers to get a (replayable!) password or hash from a browser, improperly terminated VPN, SSL stream, etc.

An ephemeral TOTP value is almost useless to them in this case.

As for rubber hose: if your 2FA smartcard/token/device isn't carried after you leave the office (for example), attackers getting your password via a mugging out the street is less useful.
Ask HN: Why is the Linux Fnd “open source conference” invite-only?
I just got fed a Twitter promo for Linux Foundation's Open Source Leadership Summit and noticed it's invite-only. I'm newer to open source, still getting my feet wet, but I'm hoping some veteran can explain how that goes with the open source philosophy. It looks like they only want executives to attend, so why do they advertise it and invite people to "ask for an invitation", instead of just hosting a private meeting of their preferred attendees? Came across as a "not open" approach, but I'm probably missing backstory or perspective on Linux Foundation.

When has Apple ever used anyone else's core technology?

Apple either develops their own stuff, or acquires a company and brings it in house (that's how they got Siri in the first place, as well as their own processor designs). Apple is not going to buy IBM.
I've never come across this one, thanks for the tip. I like the way it doesn't use every character in the range 0x20 to 0x7f. That last one in particular (0x7f or 'DEL') has always seemed problematic to me because it's a weird exceptional case. I've always thought someone must have screwed up with that one way back in the day. Using only '!' to 'u' and hence avoiding ' ' feels right for some reason, and I also like the cute trick of getting just a little bit of compression by using 'z' to represent 32 zero bits.

These components look and work great, but unfortunately are a real headache to retheme unless you want to pull in a sass/less toolchain in addition to what you're currently using. This is a pain in the ass if you already have your theme variables set up in one compiles-to-CSS language.

There is a standard for CSS variables and a very functional subset of their functionality can be compiled for older browsers at build time: http://cssnext.io, yet as far as I can tell, all of these component frameworks impose some other nonstandard compiles-to-CSS language or one of many possible APIs for writing inline styles.

Inline styles seem to be a trend at the moment but I can only assume the people driving this movement haven't had the experience of working with 3rd party components (which you may or may not have the source for) and needing to alter something the designers didn't expose and simply having no simple options because the damn inline style can't be overridden even by !important. Now you've got to fork whole the f'ing component, possibly multiple, each of which potentially coming with yet another different compiles-to-CSS toolchain all because you wanted to add a single line of CSS.

Admittedly, antd doesn't use inline styles si the above doesn't apply here, but having to maintain a custom builder for antd in order to change some fonts and a few colors was a frustrating experience. Not sure what a good solution is until CSS variables get more browser adoption, but it'd be great if we could collectively start standardizing on standards.

You have to give up the idea of a universal clock: you only have a local one.

In your example: since you erased the elapsed computation in other regions, you (by putting the particles back) are literally rewinding every clock but yours.

In whatever sense they were ever in 2000, they're back there, though you're in (your) 2018. Having your 2018 be their 2000 seems like a sensible definition of time travel.

(And yes, you'd have spent a year time traveling, though in many senses you always are time traveling forward, and you just happened to spend a year going fast "backwards".)

For the rest of your points, I agree that they're sensible objections to being able to do it, but they don't make the concept not mean anything, which was your original point.

Why would the future remain? You destroyed it when you time traveled, and any changes in the future would require time traveling forward to see. (Forward is less erasure heavy, because you're just stalling instead of rewinding.)

It's not just a similar experience, it's the literal definition of what that term means.

> nor time, just changes in particle positions

Uh... It's comments like this which makes me question your position.

Changes in particle positions is time! Literally: time is just that thing a clock does, which is tick. If particles change position, that's (by definition) time.
Apparently someone ignored your request, so I fixed it for you.
When you decide whether a risk is unacceptable, there are two parts to consider: the likelihood of the event, and the potential worst-case scenario should the event come to pass. .01% is a very low likelihood, but the worst case scenario that one of these phones maims the user is an extremely bad outcome. In this framework the recall is the most sensible thing to do.
I just started reading the code. I don't write Objective-C, but it looks to me as though it will have some vulnerabilities with how it opens images for the dots (but maybe its some sort of resource opening thing that doesn't have the usual path escape vulnerabilities).
Well, the Note 7 seems to show how good an idea that is.

Yes, as a matter of fact, that's exactly what the Note 7 debacle demonstrated. There was a quality problem that could cause fires. There was a single party who could be expected to take responsibility. Finally, there was a coordinated worldwide recall.

Problem solved, system working as intended. Sucks to be Samsung, of course, but the end result will be safer batteries for everyone.

Plenty of devices have replaceable batteries without them exploding, and if anything, a replaceable battery would let you say "hey, this battery is getting old, let's replace it" rather then continuing to use a device with an old, possibly failing battery.

Sorry, that's not going to happen. Get used to disappointment.

> convince everyone on Earth to implement changes that are bad for them, like not eating animal-based foods, with only the promise of "maybe in 200 years your descendants, should your line not be extinct by then, will benefit" as compensation

There are millions of people who chose not to eat animals for different reasons (ethical, health, environmental). And this number is growing faster than ever before, as people become more educated about the issues with animal agriculture.

I don't know why you would classify it as "bad for you". It looks like you are projecting your opinions.

> But therein lies the rub - with every month that goes by, it's clear that to call it a "pressing priority" to Apple would be to give it an importance that they clearly don't feel it has.

The question is, what is Apple's priority right now? The latest iPhone and Apple Watch models are incremental upgrades, and in the case of the iPhone, everyone expected a redesign (and Apple had two years to make that happen, but they either chose not to, or failed). macOS or whatever they call it now hasn't changed much in several years, as you pointed out. The Mac Pro is stagnant. The Mac Mini is stagnant. The new Macbook Pro model has the touch bar, after several years of sameness.

The only recent Apple products that are a notable upgrade from their previous versions are the Apple TV with Siri, and potentially the touch bar Macbook Pro. That's all I can think of since the release of the iPhone 6 in 2014. I guess you could throw in the giant iPad Pro too, but I've never actually seen one outside of an Apple Store, so I don't know if they sell that well.

I hope Apple has some exciting products lined up for 2017, because the past few years have been incremental at best.

Ha ha, hilarious. But the Nikon DSC 995 existed in 2001 and took vastly better digital photographs than that. Not only did the technology exist but I was using one in India around that time.

We agree on the problem, just not the solution.

Thank you! This has been weighing on my mind ever since the fakenews meme has infected HN, I just haven't been able to express it constructively.

It would be great if we could start from this statement and look for some workable, agreeable solution.
Or even LGPL, what copy-left libraries should be using.

Don't get me wrong, the GPL isn't the "worst thing ever" or a "virus", but I feel it's best suited to full applications rather than libraries.
Clearly this has now devolved into mere semantics, but... if your position emphasizes user freedom, then your position is the "free software" position, not the "open source" position, just as a matter of the historical definitions of those terms. "Open source" was coined for the explicit purpose of de-emphasizing user freedom (that is, making the idea of FOSS more palatable to companies that were not interested in allowing user freedom). So...
I'd be interested as well. Youtube apparently has some thing, but I don't know of anything standalone.

I don't get why the US is so bad at infrastructure.

All other first-world countries have entrenched bureaucracies, and pork-barrel spending, and environmental reviews, and zoning, and NIMBY lawsuits, just like the US does. However, those other countries manage to get infrastructure built and maintained anyway. So, given that they face the same challenges the US does, why does the US do so much worse, even though the US has so much more money? Where is the distinction?
