I could understand Apple going into CPU or GPU business. After all when you have 250M annual devices shipment, roughly the size of the whole PC market segment, these high margin cost could be eliminated, not to mention they aren't getting the best or what they need.

But Memory? But NAND and DRAM are commodity, in fact for most of their life time Memory companies tends to lose money. Not to mention China are pouring in tens of billions into memory Fabs alongside with billions of other incentives. In pretty much every business Chinese steps in is a race to bottom. I just dont see any value of getting a holding on to a memory fab / capacity.
Absolutely :D

Initially we had AdSense on the page itself, kickassapp.com. A banner on the startpage and some sub-pages. This went well, we made maybe 100 USD a month on the traffic we got. Then one day I decided to add ads within the game. (The menu you see is an iframe to our site. So it is on our domain)

It being a bookmarklet you can play it on any page. This worked fairly well and we didn't get warnings for a while. Then when people decided to shoot up porn sites we got a warning saying you are not allowed to show ads on explicit content. I did nothing and the warning went away, presumably because nobody played on a porn site again for a while. Then we got another warning when this happened. After that I decided to remove the in-game ads because it wasn't worth the trouble.

I thought that would solve the issue. I'm not sure if we were under the microscope after that or it's just something that AdSense is fairly strict towards but: We have a highscore list on the front page that links to pages people played on. This was not filtered, so if someone played on a porn site (or torrent site) we would then have an outbound link towards explicit content. This we got a warning for. I kinda panicked and removed the links on the highscore widget on the frontpage. (The warning did say something to the tune of "You have outbound links to banned content"). However I totally forgot that we also list on the profile page of a player the sites they play on. So we had outbound links there as well to explicit content. Before I realized that we got a permanent ban from AdSense saying that we did not listen to their warnings.

The appeal process has so far not gotten us in touch with a human to explain that we do never intend to this again and that we're sorry and super willing to fix any issues. I assume we're not worth the trouble :) Also I think "ass" in the name is hinder here :)

Us putting ads when playing on other pages was a bad decision on our end I agree. The outbound links were dubious in my opinion since we have a lot of user generated content and policing that was just hard. I'm not sure if putting a "rel=nofollow" would be better... Never did get an answer to that one.

In terms of other ad networks we tried I can just say it's a shady world.

The Rise of Luxury Student Homes in the US
As a "recovering" shy person, what helped me was the following Frame: we care. We really really care to get things right and we expect that others will have the same standards. This can apply to everything, be it professional, artistic, social, political

The key for me to overcome that was:

* Desensitizing myself. Fake it till you make it works

* Take note and log how much people actually care if you put yourself out there and make a mistake. Hint: not a lot

* Work on finding where exactly ego is too large and fragile. This is often for brainy people the "i can't just say anything, it needs to be perfect" trap

Viewing these things as a process which can be practiced word immensely well for me. But it is very hard to get started, not gonna lie. I got a kick towards it through emotional trauma

'The thrust of these style guides falls back to a weird kind of masculine virility. The terms themselves—“passive” and “active”—rely heavily on received tropes of gendered norms, and for that reason alone we should be suspicious of them.'

Are gender norms really the root of all evil?

> Apples to Oranges though (or Apples, but still). The comparison should be a laptop from 2007. I ran a house on solar electricity and windpower back then, my laptop was about 35 Watts according to the e-meter connected to it, my present day laptop is roughly the same.

No, it shouldn't. Many people use laptops today for the things they used Desktops in the past.

In Australia, via the mygov tool, for a simple wage earner like me, 10 minutes. All the payroll taxes amounts are prefilled, maybe 10 questions in all. Got my refund in ~ 10 days. The Australian Tax Office has a fairly extensive developers program to encourage more/better tooling and compliance.

The need of swap partition (typically 2x ram_size) makes little sense for systems with adequate Memory as it is rarely used. Also, the size of the swap file will be no more than 5% of free disk space (or, 2 GB RAM) for ubuntu 17.04 which is much lower than a swap partition could be another reason.

I don't think it's a worthless conjecture.

A couple days ago I submitted a link to the Great Filter article on Wikipedia https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14095912

It basically proposes a theory where life, being very common in the universe, eventually reaches a point (filter) that prevents it from stepping up in the Kardashov scale: http://28oa9i1t08037ue3m1l0i861.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-c...

You are simply putting ourselves beyond the Great Filter, although finding life in Enceladus could drastically affect that: http://28oa9i1t08037ue3m1l0i861.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-c...

Bohemian and Saxon Switzerland Park: A Day Trip from Prague
Intensivist here. We consider sustained V-tach (defined as 30 seconds duration or greater) to be an emergency (which I define to mean that if we don't do something immediately, really bad stuff could happen within seconds/minutes). Some with V-tach get goofy, some get palpitations, some get woozy/faint, some have chest pain, some have visual blurring, some get shortness of breath, some die very quickly. So while all V-tach is an "emergency", there's quite a range in its presentation.

Some get no symptoms at all and can just cook along like that all day. This doesn't happen often, but I do see it from time to time. Usually my first thought is "it's not V-tach," but we usually have a good telemetry record of it. Of course, telemetry is supposed to pick that up and sound an alarm, but it isn't perfect and there are rhythm alarms going off all the time.

It's a tricky situation sometimes. The ACLS guidelines are pretty good. They basically say: if someone with V-tach is "unstable" or having a lot of symptoms then shock them right away. That's generally the right approach, but it's a mean thing to do to somebody who's wide awake, but has some shortness of breath and a dip in their blood pressure. So depending on where the patient is (surgical unit, regular hospital bed, etc), some tricky logistical issues can arise (do you sedate them on the spot, which most doctors are uncomfortable doing; do you transfer them to another unit first,; do you call a code blue; do you call a rapid response team). It's why we can't put every patient into a perfect algorithm. You have to be a thoughtful human being to access the need for immediate intervention sometimes.

In the UK the majority of people do absolutely nothing. Your wage slip says how much tax you've paid each month (through the PAYE system) and then at the end of the tax year your company sends you a P60 form (https://www.gov.uk/paye-forms-p45-p60-p11d/p60) which is simply a pre-filled summary of all the tax you paid that year.

That's the case for anyone with the most common case of a single salaried job. If you have a more complex situation (dividends from company share, taxable investments, multiple jobs) then you need to fill in a self-assessment form. I did one last year and it was all done online and took about an hour in total.

I don't know when the slogan of the Dutch tax authority, "We can’t make paying taxes pleasant, but at least we can make it simple" was introduced, but in my view it has been supported in three different ways:

1) a simplification of the tax rules - mainly by reducing the number of exceptions and tax deduction rules,

2) filing the tax forms digitally - they started with desktop applications, and now the main focus is on a web application, and

3) pre-entering the information the DTA already has on you, so you just need to correct and add missing information instead of entering everything from scratch - and they collect a lot of data of you yearly.

This improvement happened over the last 15 years, and the time required to filing tax returns was reduced from many hours (mainly to gather all the information, and writing it on a paper form) to like 30 minutes. That is, if your administration is up to date. Filing the tax forms is my yearly reminder to update my administration...

BTW, that slogan is stated more succinctly in Dutch: "Leuker kunnen we het niet maken. Wel makkelijker."

Why would you want to word it like that? Let's not call it 'stop' but rather 'financially discourage'.
At an organisation I recently worked for we did both.

Technical debt tickets were created in the issue tracker. The ticket offers plenty of space to detail the technical reasons for implementing potentially suboptimal code in the first place (a justification for the introduction of technical debt), a general outline of the approach to resolving the debt and to list out business justifications for resolving the debt.

A TODO comment referencing the ticket was added to the code. This reduced comment bloat and allowed a developer to easily find the relevant source from a ticket and vice versa.

Technical debt issues were added to each sprint/development cycle by product managers with developer input during planning sessions.

This process also had the benefit of letting developers fill in small amounts of possible development downtime. If you know you have to leave the office in 30 mins (a dentist appointment for example that you can't miss), you may be uninclined to start work on a large feature. Picking up almost any small tech debt ticket turns that time into something more productive than nothing.

As a counter anecdote, I ordered ("[s]hips from and sold by Amazon.com", not "[f]ulfilled by Amazon"; just double-checked) a branded microSD card a few months ago, and did a full device write / read on it, and it died on the read pass. I wasn't even thinking that it could be counterfeit at the time: this is just a basic smoke test I do on all new storage devices. But now that I think of it it does seem awfully suspicious.

I started to understand the realities of potential PTSD with a particular patient. When I was a resident, we admitted a guy whose ICD started firing while he was feeling fine and mowing his lawn. He freaked out, stripped his shirt off and ran screaming up his neighborhood street until he found some help.

He told the story in an almost comical way, and I nearly started giggling because of how I imagined this would seem to an onlooker. But I quickly realized how absolutely fucking terrified he would feel. I don't think I can fully grasp the long-term emotional impact this might have on somebody who forever knows they've always got that thing in their chest and that it's statistically the most likely way they'll exit he world.

Seems you have some idea of how to cope with that, but I bet a lot of people don't have those facilities.

Sure, and sometimes you have to declare tech bankruptcy, and just do a rewrite from scratch (often accompanied by a switch in framework or programming language).

Whether it is "baggage" or "debt" depends on whether it is accumulating interest (that is, it makes other changes such as adding features harder and harder to do).
My more recent Garmin will use HR data during the exercise to determine recovery HR by simply comparing activity HR to the HR two minutes after you've paused the activity.

My advice is to never place TODO comments in your code. It will become a graveyard for TODOs and annoy fellow programmers who come across it for years after it was written.

Instead

1. Quickly experiment with refactoring but stop if it feels wrong. We often underestimate how quickly we can improve the codebase. It's often better to try something quickly than waste time planning to do it.

2. Defer if it's a big refactor or you're on a very tight deadline. Write a reminder in your physical notebook so you don't prematurely pollute your board. If it feels high priority after that and you still haven't had time to do it, then make a chore ticket for it.

IE4 was better than Netscape communicator but not significantly. Before (IE3 and below) things were a lot more even. However by IE4 MS had already won the browser wars. It was a fair while after that point when AJAX became a thing (and Netscape and Opera did support a competing API to XMLHttpRequest btw). The problem with IE was that it wasn't standards compliment, only ran on Windows desktop and Mac (even Windows CE didn't really have a decent working version of IE) and even with their lack of regard for the standards offer very little innovation compared to the 10 years they had leading the market. Think about how much the web advanced once Firefox and Chrome gained traction and how far behind IE quickly got left, then tell me that what Microsoft did for web was a positive thing.

Real Player and Flash were cross platform (albeit Flash outside of Windows was and still is garbage). ActiveX was Internet Explorer on Windows desktop only and Silverlight was only partially cross platform (parts of Silverlight was ported to OSX and only OSX so it's a bit of a stretch to even compliment Silverlight for being "partially" cross platform).
In India, most people I know use ClearTax. It's freemium(the last 3 years I've only used the free version, that was enough.) and I spent only about 20 minutes or so every year filing my taxes.

5 Ionic Framework App Development Tips and Tricks
I'm in the UK. If you work as a regular employee, your tax gets automatically deducted and noted in your payslip. Each year you get a form posted out and if you disagree with the amount (I don't know anyone who ever has) you can contact HMRC to sort out the difference.

If you work as a contractor/self employed, you have to fill in a self assessment form. I personally don't need to do one, but my partner did, and it took us about 30 minutes last year.

It really doesn't need to be this complex.
