Acceptance is not the same as complacency.

I think the article is suggesting that accepting your current situation puts you in a better mindset to tackle it full-force if it's going to cause you problems down the road.

"Ok, so we're here--now what?"
Or just pointing your finger at the sensor unlocks it. Same difference.

Or you can use the "panic" mode on iOS11 and force it to ask for a passcode.
Not necessarily true. There's still quite large amount of video (or film) content adapted from wider aspect ratios that has been thoughtfully framed with the expectation that it will eventually be squeezed into a consumer device-friendly 16:9 aspect ratio.

I don't expect the area encompassed by the notch to be meaningful to a lot of video content (possibly most). I think there are scenarios where it would be a minor problem, though.
Agreed! I use an SE because I already want my phone to be as small and basically incapable as possible (with decent UX), and then a laptop when I want to do something a bit more distracting. Text + maps + music is all I really want on me at all times.
Piketty's writing doesn't apply to the US. His work applies to Europe, where legacy far outweighs entrepreneurship.
The answer to why it took so long may not be any more complicated than "Apple charging cables are notoriously short-lived and surprisingly expensive."

The irony is that Kahneman has spent a lot of time both raising awareness of the replication crisis and studying the kind of cognitive biases people often have, yet got bit by exactly that.

In his defense, his comment here is, I think, a master study in what a detailed, sincere "I was wrong" should look like.
Yeah, it'll really trick.

Upgraded to a 165hz G-Sync panel recently and it was a revelation after running at a v-synced 60hz for years and years.

Order the 1080TI about a week later as the 970 I had wasn't cutting it at 1440p.
Similar watches with LTE have been available from Samsung and others for years. Objectively speaking, Apple's latest watch isn't anything special.
He seem to assume the idea of bitcoin is making money on speculating on it, which I'm not really a fan of in general, but I'm pretty sure we have different reasons. I guess he missed the point of cryptocurrencies, that they traded for profit is only circumstantial.

I'm not entirely sold on cryptocurrencies, and am not certain that that's what will reign trade in the future, however it might and it's a very interesting idea/technology and if it will lose as a general currency it might win in contracts for example.

One of my personal reservations of current models of cryptocurrencies is how easy it is to have early adopters build up a fortune in the beginning, primarily for causing such a avalaunch of competing currencies of such similar workings (if radically different ideas where tested it might be more interesting), arguably many for simply this reason (to make creators rich).
>> I'm already comfortable using Touch ID and that number is much lower.

Source? I was under the impression that fingerprint recognition was more secure than facial recognition.
> but I think it a safe assumption that it would be what a single mobile phone line would cost

Tmobile charged me $10 for an iPad sim with it's own phone number. I can't imagine it'll be a huge new cost. It seems pretty much exactly like an iPad, except they don't even need an extra number
This is a false dichotomy, because the auto-brake system can work without autopilot, so a better of both world is possible.
I'm still looking for a place to plug in my expensive 5mb SCSI drive.
I started by manually QA testing pos systems and mobile apps for a company at $11 an hour. I did that for a few years while teaching myself to code. Now I'm doing ok somewhere else, but it took a layoff to push me there.
I doubt they expose an API since it's part of the security feature.
Well, it gives them an excuse for them to charge you extra. I really don't think it's something that's too complicated to set up.
Why did they not name it Apple Juice instead of Airpower? :)
If you're referring to the FaceTime announcement, it was a third party that forced them to keep it closed (from memory).
Thanks for you feedback. I get it, we had a few people say this. We're working on limiting what GitHub can do, whilst retaining usefulness.

Despite the admin rights, we don't include that functionality to delete repos. All we do is calculate and display cost, show relevant contextual info such as repos and organizations.

Again, we're rethinking how to limit things.

Cheers!
BTC minted the vast majority of its coin supply to a tiny group of users.

Worth considering, especially now that there are better alternative blockchains.
I've had mine for 6 months. I like it for automatic sleep tracking (using the sleep watch app). The battery on the series 2 is good enough that it only needs about 30-60 minutes of charging a day (depending on usage). I also use the silent alarm it has to wake up.

When I go for a bike ride, it's nice to track that and be able to check heart rate, distance, etc while riding without pulling out my phone.

The cellular isn't enough for me to upgrade, I don't run so there's never really a time I'd be without my phone.

I've ended up wearing it about 23 hours a day, 7 days a week.
I'm pretty sure turning the device off and on requires a passcode.
From the bottom of the page:

Apple Watch Series 3 (GPS + Cellular) requires an iPhone 6 or later with iOS 11 or later. Apple Watch and iPhone service provider must be the same. Not available with all service providers. Roaming is not available outside your carrier network coverage area. Wireless service plan required for cellular service. Contact your service provider for more details. Check apple.com/watch/cellular for participating wireless carriers and eligibility.

So, using it as a cellular device by itself would seem to be impossible.

He did say IDE, VS code is still considered an editor (like Atom, Sublime Text, etc.)
That's not really "cruft", that's an additional guarantee that the de-facto historical standard implementation has provided users, in addition to the guarantees outlined in the bespoke on-paper standard. SystemD wants to replace a system that implements a standard+extensions. It doesn't want to implement the extensions, for religious reasons. Maybe there's also a tiny speedup in some scenarios, but there should be an option for those scenarios.

In much the same way clang implements most of gcc's extensions to C and C++, and even defines gcc version macros, so people can simply drop-in replace gcc with clang. It could not implement any of them, but then it would not be very useful to people.

Most of those extensions either exist for a reason, or were an implementation detail that happened to be very useful to people, hence the behaviour is kept in. Now the SystemD developers have removed that behaviour because it's not mandated by a specific piece of paper, even though it's expected by a significant portion of users. Users are not happy.
I use Tasker on android for this and many other similar tasks.
Unlikely, the chips in iPhones have been carrier neutral for at least a couple of generations now.

Apple Care doesn't help if the phone is lost or stolen. However, I'm quite sure that the risk of damaging or losing a phone is much greater than the risk of crashing a car (at least in the UK and Western Europe). Hence, the price of phone insurance against the price of the phone is so much worse than the price of car insurance against the price of the car.

Then, does someone become lower risk the more time and experience with a phone, like no claims, age and sex profiling on car insurance, or is the price of insurance the same whether the customer is a 25 or 50 adult male.
If you have 32gb of RAM and you're getting type lag after 2 days, it's probably not a RAM issue, right?
Honest marketing is explaining the value of a product. Marketing can be smoke and mirrors, but to deny its utility is shortsighted.
I feared him rushing the feature long ago. Thought they raised the bar adequately since. He should stop spawning new projects and give more resources to this one instead.
The fact that ibogaine, a drug with little if any neurotoxicity, is a Schedule 1 drug in the U.S. while millions of opioid pills get handed out every year to hopelessly addicted poor people makes me very, VERY upset. Does your government care if you live or die?
Only if they wanted it to be: stainless steel is not significantly ferromagnetic. My guess is they don't want it to be magnetic but I can't think of a good reason other than "that's not what phones are like".
MIT used what were supposed to be anonymous lifestyle survey responses to justify shutting down a longstanding dorm with a very strong culture of drug use, with no warning to the community.

The drug culture of this dorm goes much further than sporadic cocaine use. Frankly, without generalizing about individual residents, it's fair to say that drug use was an identifying component of the culture of the dorm. Yet that culture had existed for many, many years, so its existence alone didn't precipitate the closure of the dorm.
How about this quote from Lord Kelvin:

> The beauty and clearness of the dynamical theory, which asserts heat and light to be modes of motion, is at present obscured by two clouds. I. The first came into existence with the undulatory theory of light, and was dealt with by Fresnel and Dr. Thomas Young; it involved the question, how could the earth move through an elastic solid, such as essentially is the luminiferous ether? II. The second is the Maxwell–Boltzmann doctrine regarding the partition of energy.[0]

As I understand it, the two clouds were dealt with via special relativity and quantum mechanics.

>>not getting a couple of pills from your doctor.

You're gonna have to back that claim up. All the evidence points to the claim that over-prescribing is a real epidemic.

You're not wrong that there are larger social problems, but your argument essential boils down to "drugs addicts are drug addicts". The root problem is not being born a heroin addict, or not having a purpose in life, or not having a strong community. It's over prescribed pain medication pushed onto people for profits sake.

"Sales of prescription opioids in the U.S. nearly quadrupled from 1999 to 2014,1 but there has not been an overall change in the amount of pain Americans report.2,3 During this time period, prescription opioid overdose deaths increased similarly."
https://www.cdc.gov/drugoverdose/data/prescribing.html
Definitely. I wish they didn't do the autosave crap.
It almost certainly is true. Doctors in the US overprescribe opioids like you wouldn't believe. They do this as a result of Purdue Pharma's super expensive marketing campaign designed to stamp out "opiphobia" -- a term they used for doctors unwilling to write out opiate scripts.

As a side benefit, they re-engineered the "slow release" version of the tablet. Except it didn't release evenly over 12 hours, like it said. Instead, it led to withdrawals towards the end of the period, which taught a user's brain the ups and downs of withdrawal -> high -> withdrawal. IE, it conditioned them to become addicted.
The iPhone from 5 years ago will look as limited to you as the 2007 phones did compared to the iPhone.

It's just that the iPhone appeared all at once, whereas you have 5 keynotes to go from 2012's iPhone (the iPhone 4S) to the iPhone 7.

Since then we've got: 4G (LTE), Touch ID, dual-LED flash, NFC and Apple Pay, motion co-processor, 802.11ac, Lightning, Bluetooth 5.0, phase detection autofocus, 4K video and slo-mo 1080p, 3D Touch, haptic feedback, water resistance, wide color gamut, brightness increases, and several times faster CPUs and GPUs (allowing for far more demanding apps).
"The US was monitoring Ugandan weapons shipments to the RPF in 1992, but instead of punishing Museveni, western donors including the US doubled aid to his government and allowed his defence spending to balloon to 48% of Uganda’s budget, compared with 13% for education and 5% for health, even as Aids was ravaging the country. In 1991, Uganda purchased 10 times more US weapons than in the preceding 40 years combined."

It's wrong on so many levels, but I want to concentrate on this.

So basically the us government gave away the tax payers money to murderers, which they used to buy weapons from U.S defense companies.
How many more deaths will the greed of the companies cause.
Protection through obscurity. If the NSA needs to go through the legal process to access data, the chances of them looking through your data is much lower than if they had unrestricted access. The cost of data inquiry discourages data inquiries.
Starbucks has had wireless chargers for a long time in most Bay Area stores. However, these are usually PMA chargers -- not Qi.

I have never been able to charge my Nexus devices which only have Qi at Starbucks, however my new Galaxy S8 which supports both Qi and PMA work at Starbucks just fine!

This does unfortunately mean that new iPhone won't work at Starbucks locations unless they replace the hardware.
What is the issue with a free patent grant (which is revoked under certain conditions)? Atom itself is licensed under MIT and doesn't give you a patent grant.

EDIT: I understand that it would be best to get a free patent grant, but most open-source projects have no patent grant at all. Why are we not complaining that Microsoft might hold patents for VSCode that they suddenly will start suing companies over?
Tesla has L2, barely. L3 in fact allows you to not pay attention. L3 requires several seconds (10-15) warning period for you to take over the wheel.
Other manufacturers doesn't call their system Autopilot. The name suggest that you push a button and arrive at your destination without having to do any driving yourself. I also don't see any Youtube videos showing how their Hondas are driving themselves automatically. It's mainly a marketing issue, but too many seem to have bought it.
I want that too. Any ideas about how to do that without a lot of extra income? Moustache guy has great ideas for people who make a lot of money.
Not attacking you but do you think cigarette companies are liable for smoking addiction?

My biggest problem with Pharma on this is that Oxy is 100x (?) more likely to get someone addicted than Tylenol 3 with Codeine or maybe even Morphine. I think part of selling Oxy should be a mandatory tax that goes to pay for opioid addiction.
No. What is meant here is that whenever multiple DNS resolvers are configured on a particular DNS client, those resolvers should share an identical view of the DNS landscape for that client to consume.

If you have an internal DNS resolver which handles some private DNS entries, you should not set up any client with that resolver AND a second resolver which does not also have those entries.

So what the OP it's saying is that the example you provided is something you should never do.

So to clarify the statement: "all DNS resolvers defined on a given client are expected to return the same results"

Does anybody know if it is completely independent from a phone, as in: no need to even own one?
When you instruct people to wait 12 hours between taking painkillers that last 8, you will reliably get them addicted to painkillers. The on/off whipsaw of the medication will do that.

Sure, the social ills exacerbate the problem. But a lot of it is pure physiology.
I'm not sure. It was truly bad in the Android 2.3 days. I own a Moto E since it was cheep and I was curious if Android had improved. Running 5.1 was pretty accessible, but was slow which is expected since it's a low end phone. Android apps on a chromebook work pretty well, but who knows how that will translate to a modern mid range Android phone.
No plus, minus please. I am tired of big phones

Why would you choose a job that paid far in excess of your needs and lifestyle choices.

Do you know many people with high incomes but super frugal lifestyles? If so, are they a rare counterexample, and not the norm?

Wait... so care remote codes have been broken and the hack is so common that low level criminals have it?
Why can't you wear glasses running? I'd fall over myself if I tried to do that. (Maybe shouldn't do the trails then, hey?)

But on the larger point, I'm not sure how it's depressing. We mostly all live in similar houses and buy similar consumer products, and we have interests, work, families and hobbies that look similar to other peoples.

Maybe along the same lines of how everyone just has their face buried in a phone these days? Disconnecting from "glasses" (or eventually smart contact lenses or brain-interface) will be much the same.
People go iOS first because iOS has a much better market for paid apps - if Objective C wasn't enough to discourage this approach, I doubt a notch in the UI will be.
I too would be really interested in this if it had a more expansive list of services available... though $29/mo for it for personal use seems like a bit much to me.
"I still believe that actions can be primed, sometimes even by stimuli of which the person is unaware. ... I am still attached to every study that I cited, and have not unbelieved them..." -Daniel Kahneman
Google's search departments were for years organized by the type of content being indexed, i.e. Web Search, Image Search, Video Search, Product Search, Book Search, Blog Search, Discussion Search (RIP), Google News, Scholar, etc. For a long time these distinctions were apparent in the UI (they were de-emphasized after I left, which IMHO was a very good thing), but the differences go way down through the search stack, with different indexes, different ranking functions, and in some cases different ingestion mechanisms.

As for what happens when these become inadequate for the queries users ask...well, buy Metaweb and rebrand it as the Knowledge Graph. ;-)

"There's a 50% chance that two people in this room have the same face" is not the same as "there's a 50% someone in this room has the same face as mine". The birthday paradox isn't really useful for conceptualizing FaceID's security.
Sounds like it’s still tied to the phone you can just take it places and leave the phone behind.
> even now it uses symbols that don't exist in Cyrillic

To be precise, it uses symbols that don't exist in Russian. Cyrillic is much broader than Russian, though. Ukrainian and Serbian use their own letters, too.

In USSR, there was actually a standard called the "common alphabet", that combined all letters of all languages spoken in COMECON, both Cyrillic and Latin.

No, but its Market Cap is what it is because people care about Apple.

Whereas if it was some geek factory making "wild bets" on not-ready-yet technologies, like the kind geeks ask to see, it would be liked by few, ignored by most (and for good reason).

If someone wants that, they can buy all those wonderful innovative products MS, Samsung and Google regularly put out... Rocking their Google Glass look and pioneering VR with their Rift.
Let me guess - it uses 19.5:9 because 18.5:9 and 18:9 were taken already and Apple can't really use a "used" concept? :)

That's not quite accurate, the NHTSA study was not designed, in any way, to compare human-driven miles and autopilot-driven miles for safety. The only thing it showed was that vehicles with TACC + Autosteer had less accidents than vehicles with just TACC. Whether TACC + Autosteer is safer than human drivers is up for debate.
>which was that newer science is more reliable than older science.

People sure aren't any smarter now.
Paul Graham and Robert Morris built one of the first web applications (that's a PG claim, btw) that allowed users to build their own, separate websites that had shopping carts, custom UI, etc.

They wrote the app in Common Lisp and claimed that it was their secret weapon which allowed them to iterate faster and stay ahead of their competition. They ended up selling their company (ViaWeb) to Yahoo for $50 million (IIRC).

PG also authored two books on Lisp, and HN is written in Arc (a Lisp built on top of Racket).

Around 2005 I was doing a lot of Lisp programming and I was really interested in what PG had to say. He was writing a lot of essays then and giving lots of talks, etc.

Unfortunately, I don't get the opportunity to use Lisp as much as I used to, but I'm doing a lot of Python and even played around with Hy (Lisp on top of Python). So I'm interested in Lisp as I find it to be an incredibly powerful language that is really fun to use.

Given the amount of role play involved in games like EVE, it must be fairly hard to make the call between "real-life death threat" and role playing a character.

In this case, the asking for real-life address seals it, but I'd imagine a whole lot of borderline threats have to be evaluated by GMs.
The iPhone was not a total revolution in phones the way you describe. They did not invent the touchscreen phone nor the smartphone. They improved them.
I've been using my Series 1 (not Series 0) since last November and thoroughly enjoy everything about it except the battery life (I can usually get two days of life on it).

It's great for what it is; personally I use it as a watch (checking date/time/setting timers/alarms) and as a device for filtering notifications. I don't need to keep pulling my phone out of my pocket just to check if the latest buzz was a spam email from work or a text from family/friends. It's just so much more convenient.
