Noticed how all the link says is that Apple used to sell DRM music?

First, that was a demand from the record companies.

Second, Apple was actually the company whose's CEO took a public stand against DRM in music -- and eventually been able to remove it from their music store.

That's hardly a "documented history" of Apple being active on that front.

I take the approach of storing the name of any migrations run in the database in a metadata table - this means you can run them out of order, restore from a backup then run migrations not yet run etc. to test or adjust them. With multiple devs it's often the case that we want to run things out of order on production too, so ordering by time doesn't work and running manually is error-prone.

Code for this here - it'd be pretty simple to put it in its own little tool or even a bash script or something, and there are surely some other tools that do something similar... This one psql only as it relies on the psql binary to load the sql, but hopefully gives you the idea. I haven't bothered developing it further to do things like run a single migration or down migrations as haven't required that so far.

> sells wireless earbuds at 169$

Just to play devil's advocate, those $169 AirPods are by far the cheapest fully wireless earbuds on the market, and at launch were ~$100 less than the only other competitor available. Most estimates peg Apples margin on them in the low single digits...

A big congrats are in order. Yarn came out just as I started working in the node ecosystem, and it fixed nearly all my dependency manager problems.

Since then it's evolved and it's really helped provide a counter to npm offering different design choices but working together where it counts. It's the 4th most popular brew dependency and ~25% of npm downloads. People love it.

Congrats Yarn team - you've been doing a great job.

> The hardware that ran the software described in this manual didn't have tagged memory or garbage collection support in hardware and the real instruction set was similar to any RISC CPU.

Then you should check the architecture of those machines some time: MIT CONS, MIT CADR, Symbolics LM-2 (a repackaged CADR), Symbolics 3600, LMI Lambda, ...

http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/mit/cons/TheLispMachine_Nov74.p...

Looks to me like a tagged CPU architecture...

The MIT CADR Lisp Machine was a stack architecture with 24bit data and 8 bit tags. Six bits for data type encoding and 2 bits for compact lists. The CPU does type checks on operations, ...

It was nothing like a RISC machine, which were researched for Lisp (Symbolics, Xerox, SPUR, SPARC, ...) mid/end 80s. A full decade later after the architecture of the MIT CONS Lisp Machine.

Well, it's not like the world revolves around what some particular individual does. Other people might be more clumsy. Or might live in places with frequent rains (from London to the tropics and India), do all kinds of stuff outdoors, etc.

Many people approve of a waterproof phone. And in any case, it's a nice feature to have even when you don't need it. It gives piece of mind for using it to call in the rain for one -- and if you have ever been outside in London or tons of other places you'd have seen the utility.

"Chiefs became lords."

They became feudal lords by accepting the King of Scots as their feudal overlord - this is what gave them the "ownership" of lands that had previously been held communally.

Scotland has had well over a thousand years of legal shenanigans around land ownership - it is amazingly complex for such a small country.

None of the above, sorry I didn't mean a tool called 'sql migrations' I meant I simply use sql files (rather than having a special language or config file that translates to sql which is another common approach).

I use something I wrote myself (see link in other comment). Nothing fancy and could be replicated easily - save sql files for migrations, run migration if not in db already, then store in the db the name of the migration run.
Assuming the internet has been growing exponentially since the beginning and will continue to do so indefinitely.

IPv4 has 32 bits and lasted us 34 years so far. Let's call it 32 years. Address space would need a nice and tidy 1 bit extra per year. That would mean IPv6 would last until around the year 2110.

But will the internet keep growing exponentially until then? How many people will even be alive by then? According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projections_of_population_grow..., predictions used by the UN range from 7 to 18 billion people. Let's round it up to 20 billion people. How many IPv6 addresses could we give out to each person? According to https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=2%5E128+%2F+20*10%5E9, 1.7 * 10^28, which is a lot. But okay, we have a lot of computers per person and not all computers are associated with individuals. So what if we do something crazy, like give out IPv6 addresses to the (human) cells in everybody's body? https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=1.7+*+10%5E28+%2F+cell..., that would be about 1.7 * 10^14. What if we give each cell some IPv6 addresses per second (pretending all of our cells live for 80 years)? https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=1.7+*+10%5E14+%2F+(80+...

Here we land on 67 thousand addresses, per second, for each human cell in the bodies of 20 billion people, for the span of 80 years.

That's how many IPv6 addresses we'll need to use before we run out.

We have made this mistake before, but 128 bits really is a lot.
I would not be too surprised if the final decision was Columbus. There's no shortage of land, there's reasonable access to tech talent, a reasonably solid major research university, prices are comparatively low, and the city also has a positive reputation in a way that neither Cleveland or Cincinnati have. Further, the current governor and legislature of Ohio have really been going to bat in recent years to try to turn Columbus into a tech hub to generally revitalize Ohio.

Actually bitumen does flow. It's an extremely viscous liquid. There are a couple of pitch drop experiments[1] running, where bitumen is placed in a funnel and allowed to slowly flow. The experiment at the University of Queensland opened the funnel in 1930, 9 drops have flowed out since then, the last in 2014. The period between drops after air conditioning was installed seems to be in the 12-14 year range (only 2 drops have happened in that period).

I think cybersecurity in general is hugely lacking.

It seems to me that if someone wants to compromise your devices, they can; offensive tools far outperform current defensive tools. There also does not seem to be any strong legal recourse.

> Instead of reimplementing TypeScript as closely as possible at the expense of performance, AssemblyScript tries to support its features as closely as reasonable while not supporting certain dynamic constructs intentionally:

This sentences, and the examples given with it, show that AssemblyScript is not technically a subset of TypeScript. There are 'features' in the former that aren't available in the latter. For example, explicitly converting the results of binary boolean operators to boolean is something that does not exist in typescript.

It's a subtle but important distinction, although I may be splitting hairs.
Critical Reception of Beethoven’s Compositions by His German Contemporaries
The idea is to use "public" social data to build a secondary layer of intelligence that software products can use to personalize / be more consumer aware (primary layer is their captive data based intelligence).

I hope they release a detailed postmortem on this once the issue is fixed.
On stage, Apple clearly implied that the future of audio was something along the lines of the W1: easy to pair, high quality, low latency. (With this, who needs wires anymore?) It was billed as a forward-looking, pro-consumer move. But the future of audio won't be proprietary. It can't be, simply because most people don't use iPhones. The way I see it, the fact that Apple won't even license their tech spells out the true intent behind the removal of the headphone jack. They don't want to move technology forward; they just want to lock in their users for expensive audio equipment.
That doesn't mean your lightning connector is capable of putting out analog audio, it just means your headphone jack does.

Interestingly their survey was conducted using Mechanical Turk.

It struck me as highly dubious they could possibly control for the myriad dimensions of personality and social background with any statistical significance with a sample of 1487, of which, what, 10% would have taken psychedelics? Turns out it was 26.9%, versus a background level of 13.6% found in some larger study.

So I think one thing we can safely conclude is that that taking psychedelics tends to turn people into Mechanical Turks. Or the other way round?
even then those counting the paper ballots can be biased.

there are multiple models modelling aspects of climate, many of which individually need super computer levels of horsepower. So separate models for ocean heating, or air currents etc.

all of which would have to re-work to account for the new entropy being added to the system, and its intended effects.

And this gets further complicated by different methods to change the environment.

Unless a climate scientist corrects me, its not as simple as just plugging in a x=x-c.

And that adds more complexity to the model too, not to mention the change in all the data - before G-eng, after G-eng.
In fact, currently, there is a service disruption. :/

I am not implying that. Education is different from pressure. Some people apply a lot of pressure, which I too think is ridiculous because of how hard it is to breastfeed. You are not a bad mom because you are not breastfeeding. I think the pressure is a separate issue.

To be more clear, specifically what I am talking about is that I know some women who have chosen not to try because they have heard it is very hard, and maybe some additional facts of its benefits (not just pressure from people that condescend) might have convinced them to try, or convince some women to do it longer. Everybody says it's good, we all know it's good. But nobody likes to do something just because someone else said it's good for them. They want to know why.

Glsl-livecoder is a GLSL runtime environment for Atom. When you write GLSL code in Atom, glsl-livecoder immediately evaluates it and shows the result on the background. It's just like GLSL sandbox or Shadertoy, but you can use autocomplete and linter by using existing Atom packages.
Moreover, It supports Audio inputs , MIDI inputs, loading videos and images, etc...!!!!

iPhone 8 launch next week:  all we know about the handset so far
That's not quite true. Washington state (where Seattle is) has no state income tax. The sales tax rate, however, is a whopping 9.5%. As a mail order/online retailer, Amazon only had to charge sales tax on in-state purchases. Washington state's low population made it more favourable relative to California with a much less worse tax structure, and Texas and Florida which also have no state income tax and the population centers necessary to support a growing business. Of course, I'm sure Microsoft's established engineering talent pool helped too.
> None of the steps taken in response addressed the fundamental, obvious security policy issues. Even their band-aid fixes were broken.
