My understanding is that the audio/music playing APIs are extremely limited and would be problematic for implementing a music player, let alone a streaming app.
That's a fair objection, thanks. I don't believe I am trolling or taking a strawman interpretation of 'binaryapparatus's arguments, but if I am I'd appreciate correction!

I think it is relevant that the current state of affairs (with glibc) isn't actually better at preventing DNS leakage, and that systemd-networkd has relevant functionality specifically to address the underlying use case in a way that reliably blocks DNS leakage.

I also think it is relevant that the functionality is not in pid 1 and (although I didn't say it, and maybe I should have) there is no particular obligation or desire on the part of systemd's pid 1 binary to use systemd-resolved. They're developed in the same project, and there are some nice things you get by using them together, but you don't have to, and you experience no loss of functionality as compared to the status quo ante systemd if you choose to use systemd as init plus the glibc stub resolver. (In particular, I think that's the standard way most distros configure systemd.)

I was probably rude in my reply about how this functionality is not in pid 1, and for that I apologize, but I don't think I was irrelevant. Maybe I don't understand the objection to having systemd-resolved developed alongside an init system? (Developing everything together and using common routines where possible is the traditional UNIX approach, epitomized by the current BSDs.)

Mining makes much more sense - if they could acquire mining hardware from China (where it's manufactured) in trade, they could use that to mine cryptos, which they in turn can spend on the (relatively) open market.

Every night? You either don't have AirPods or you do and you use them a lot.
Just to preface this: where are you getting the 12x reduction from? He spends 40 euros at 0.26, that's 150 kWh per month. That's 1/3rd of your usage, not 1/12th. And he's living alone, you with four. If anything, you're more efficient than he is per person.

Anyway if you want a reduction, just identify all the model numbers of anything plugged in and check specs and approximate usage.

It's insane how large the efficiency spectrum is, and how efficient things have become in recent years.

For example, modern 6ft fridges get so efficient they use about 8 kWh per month. Meanwhile, very old fridges can still use upwards of 40 kWh per month. We've seen a reduction of something like 75% in the past 15 years, that's pretty massive.

The most efficient washing machines now use about 10 kWh a month, while I can easily find washing machines for sale that use 25 kWh per month that were produced as recently as 2012 by LG.

And that's the difference in age. Differences in tech/model are also vast. In Europe we have a pretty decent energy labeling system for consumers for a decent approximation.

For example, here's lightbulbs [0] where you can see, for a certain amount of light (e.g. 3k lumens) the best bulbs use 50W while the worst use 250W. That's a 5x difference. You can easily drop 80% of your lighting electricity usage if you still have old bulbs.

The big items like washing machines, vacuum cleaners, microwaves, dryers, fridges, particularly old ones, all typically draw 2 kW or more at various times, so that's probably low-hanging fruit, assuming you have changed your bulbs.

A big TV is another one, not as high-powered but a lot of people keep em on for very long times, sometimes just as music players or on the background, and some TVs are really inefficient. Mine is alright but still draws 220 W. Contrast that with say the 2017 Macbook, which has a 42 Wh battery and lasts 10h. i.e. it draws about 4W. If you use your Macbook for 5h each day before/after work, you'd use about 0.6 kW per month, or about $1.5 typically. But if I have my TV on for 5 hours (I've used it as a music player like this but stopped due to electricity) it'd draw 33 kWh a month for about $80 a year.

If I compare the utility between these devices, it's crazy I spend 55x as much energy on my TV per hour of usage than a modern laptop. It's just that electricity is so damn cheap. The comparison to a phone is even crazier.

Nope. If you can get at least half of the stated range out of a Tesla, that certainly should be enough to get to work and back each day. I would not compare the Apple Watch to a Tesla.

So you made this change to benefit advertisers not Reddit? That's hard to believe.

CPMs should have gone down, not up, since your inventory was expanded meaning same demand for expanded supply. Y'all should also have reduced the minimum allowed bid down from 0.20 since you were expanding your inventory artificially w/ a coding change.

You should have also expected that CPAs for your advertisers were going to go way down once you removed the ad from it's intended context.

Either the logic driving the changes was weak or your explanation is lacking the whole truth.

I see a business in Reddit who wasn't pleasing it's investors and did something hasty to increase revenue.

There was no official communication of the subreddit targeting change to existing advertisers.

This is an incredible resource. I'm particularly interested in the other side of the coin: how to generate deal flow and the mechanics of making seed stage investments in "moonshots" and "hard tech". Having access to live video chat with two major players is phenomenal.

Get a Samsung S3 with LTE. It doesn't sound like you need a standalone phone to use the watch as a phone.
iPhone was and is more expensive than an iPod. That's not cannibalization, it's upselling.

As to iPads, to the extent that buying a tablet instead of a computer was appealing, it was always going to overwhelmingly bring people from PCs to iPads more than from Macs to iPads. They did deal with a certain amount of cannibalization there, but their tolerance of that was far from a general comfort with any cannibalization possible.

I think that Apple would be uncomfortable with the idea of a $400 watch cannibalizing a $700+ phone. That said, I think that the idea that the watch would significantly cannibalize the phone is silly. Whenever we discuss the watch, it's like everyone suddenly forgets that people fucking love their phones and have consistently demanded larger and larger screens. The idea that suddenly people are going to be all, "No, it's cool, I don't want a screen larger than 1" diagonal" in any substantial quantity is silly.
Actually the 'aboot' thing that people stereotype about Canadians is more prominent in the upper midwest US than it is in most parts of Canada.

I do hear a difference between western Canada and Ontario (I'm from the former and live in the latter.) But there's also a known dialect difference between central and southern Alberta (former settled by English/Ukrainian/Germans the other by American immigrants).

Rural Ontario, well, that's another story.

If I ever could get my lazy butt in gear, I want to make a video to prove that you can solder competently with a cheap and crappy soldering iron.

I have a soldering iron that has to be the cheapest of the cheap, that I've had since 1991; I got it when I went to a local votech electronics school fresh from high school.

It's something like a 35 watt pencil iron, and the tip is janky like nobody's business. You have to wait like 15 minutes for it to heat up. The tip is not in the greatest shape.

But I can tin that puppy up and solder perfectly with it. Now, I'm not saying you could do SMT rework using it, but basic thru-hole is no problem at all. I've assembled tons of things with it over the years.

I also have a couple of older temp controlled irons - and they are great tools as well; honestly, I prefer them over my old iron. But I know, at least for myself, that what iron I use doesn't make a difference in the project, but rather the skills I bring to the table.

As the old saying goes, "a poor craftsman blames his tools"...
Likely a software fix. The video they played was also from the 'memories' feature which may attempt 19.5:9 aspect ratio video when in reality most videos are 16:9.

Not only that but there's a pretty clear continuity of dialect _over_ the US Canada border in many places. Drive into upstate NY from Ontario and there's a pretty clear cultural and linguistic continuity in many respects.
Except for musicians, who need a latency-free audio path that won't degrade depending on distance or saturation of the wireless spectrum. Given the amount of music apps in Apple's ecosystem, I'm pretty surprised they removed the one jack that made their device compatible with literally every musical instrument and mixing board out there. They're gutting a huge market.
Damage, generally either it stops working in the left or right channel, or it starts causing the phone to "receive" random pause, play, or long press signals.
A story I heard once was that, back in the 60's, IBM was having problems with engineering quality (quelle surprise). This lead to the formation of a testing team called the Black Team. The Black Team developed a culture that prided itself on breaking systems the engineers thought were rock solid. They delighted at making engineers cry. They even started coming to work dressed in all black and sporting sinister mustaches. Consequently, many of the quality issues abated.

I don't know if it's true, but it sounds like it might be a good idea.

How might we get funding though? Perhaps with a prediction market (people bet on whether scientific hypotheses will be disproved/confirmed)? It could be fun.
I hope more public security shaming like this happens, consequences and lawsuits be damned. This is getting too tiresome, we've been tolerating incompetence and bad management for too long.
Probably incorporation affects result by a wide margin.

E.g. our company (not YC alumni) is incorporated in Delaware and based in Mountain View, but both founders are Polish and half of the employees are in Poland. On such list, we would come up as USA company. Probably quite a few companies have the same effect.

You're right, I should have used more precise wording, I let my (personal) frustration leak.

That being said, to address your second point: With many kaspersky articles I'm not left making a very interesting face ~paragraph or two in. Massive gaps between the author's assertions and my own worldview lead me to ask "Why is there this gap, should I adjust my stance or are there other forces at play", and with as substantial a delta as I see here (alongside my personal "skin in the game") I feel it's a benefit to ensure an opposition viewpoint is expressed.
You can already do that to a degree for the record.

I left my phone at home accidentally the other day, it wasn't until the work day was over and I tried to remote start my car that I realized, since almost every feature I use worked over WiFi (the remote start checks for the phone's presence)
Reddit is way more valuable if you subscribe to smaller discussion-based subs that have stricter rules. I haven't gone on r/all or any default subs in years but I still get a lot out of my front page since I try to be selective about which ones I subscribe to.

I find that moderating voices have a hard time on comment sections. There is a tendency to go to one extreme or the other, where the most hardliners tend to drown others out.
The law didn't really change. It was already a primary offense to be using the phone. Before that, there were already distracted driving laws on the books. The only real difference now is that it can all be reported to your insurance company.

I don't see how this changes anything really. How are you going to be in more trouble? I don't think there are any laws regarding bypassing safety features of the phone. If it's not explicitly illegal to bypass the safety features, it's technically legal isn't it?
I agree that convenience is the real test of each of these technologies (along with "good enough" security) that lets the majority of people to have a good experience.

The biggest concerns for the iPhone (or others) then are things like viewing angle, sunlight, etc...

It's very tricky to pinpoint what "the underlying science is." For example my phone is a piece of technology, you could argue it provides experimental evidence for any number of scientific theories. However, the hallmark of an experiment is that it can fail and in so doing disprove your theory. Can my phone fail? It can certainly fail as a phone and most phones do eventually fail for some reason or another. Does that mean that the experiment has failed and the underlying scientific theories need to be thrown out? Probably not, because it's failing as a phone, not as an experiment. What failure means when you try to consider your phone as an experiment is very unclear to me and without a clear failure case that would invalidate the theory it's useless as an experiment.
Mine still has a solid 'ka-chunk' when I plug it in. You might get your setup checked.
It would be nice if they would drop the account system and just let the users post their comments signed by their private key if they want to associate a comment with themselves or their persona. It would also be nice if they supported NNTP for commenting and reading comments.

Moreover I think that it would be great if it worked without any js (or if at least worked with addons like librejs) - knowing mozilla however they will probably not care about these.
And people wonder why I don't put pictures of myself on the Internet.

The fact that a $10 CPA was every considered acceptable is crazy, specially for the product you sell. Considering how cheap Reddit's impressions are, your conversion rate must be just a hair above zero. How do you know that your results aren't due to saturation and burnout? Once you've squeezed every bit of blood from a turnip, it becomes exponentially expensive to continue to do so. Maybe there just isn't a market for your product. IMO, if you have to show more than 1000 people your product to sell one, you have a product problem.
You meant to say grooms their customers.
Who decides what is "brand safe"? If it's not the ad buyer, that seems like a huge problem.

The whole point of marketing is to build an association between a context and a brand - if you can't control what context in which your ad appears then the platform becomes nearly useless.

Worse than useless, actually, since you could be paying to build association with context you that damage your brand. I would be outraged if my ad for /r/luxury ran on /r/couponing, regardless of whether you consider it to be NSFW.
Indeed.

For further clarity:
The retina is the thin layer of cells at the back of your eye that pick up light. The iris is the colorful ring on the front of your eye.

A retina scan is thing most people wouldn't experience outside of an eye doctor's office. It requires really close proximity with the scanner, and it's very clear that's it's happening.

Phones, including the Galaxy 8 that the author of the article mentions, use iris scanning.
I think you're describing small-l libertarianism which is a very vague and general theory with many, many offshoots that are so opposed to each other they are unrecognizable as coming from the same ideology (libertarian socialists, the US Libertarian party). Small-l libertarianism is such a weak and universally likeable platitude it practically means nothing at all. It's like being "pro-freedom" or "anti-fascism".

I think GP meant Libertarianism (like the US Libertarian party, more of an AnCap style ideology) which is pretty much only focused on markets and property rights (i.e. protecting the rich) and its calling cards are ignoring any kind of positive rights theory (the proper saying was life, liberty, property -- all negative. Pursuit of happiness, a positive aspirational right, was added when people realized it actually had to work in real life), lack of an account of historical economics and ignoring any kind of coercion or force except explicit physical force (the least common and most ineffective type of coercion found in modern society). It fundamentally opposes any kind of right to "pursuit of happiness" (or happiness at all) for anyone not wealthy and its ideal world is exactly the structure of Eve -- markets govern all, there are no limits on the power of the few rich who own the universe while the poor beg for scraps and generally die. Except Eve is far gentler -- there are no police to assault you if you trespass in the territory of one of the ultrawealthy and take their property, they have to protect it themselves, and death is not permanent.
Hey, thanks for commenting. Yes, things like xero handle this, but not in the same way. Bookkeeping software track spend, whereas UNUBO provides a snapshot of what your cost is at any time.

You get to see how many users are assigned to what, and at what level of access. It goes beyond just financials.

Within most growing companies, not everybody has access to tools like xero, which is often limited to finance dept.

Again, seems to be a calling for consumer subscriptions. We're taking notes...

That man may still be in prison, but that drive is still encrypted.

If you are unwilling to give something you know to someone, no amount of force can take it from you. Had that drive been encrypted using facial biometrics, they could have just knocked him out, glued his eyes open, and taken what they wanted.

What works, and what has been deemed legal, as you probably already know, are not mutually exclusive.
I don't encourage people to learn Ruby. I spent a long time (months) trying to learn it. I still don't tell people I know it.

I used to think that Ruby's syntax is twice as much to learn - now I think it might be even more than that.

Maybe one reason why is that Ruby's YACC file is ~918 lines long[0], while Python's grammar file is 149 lines long.

~$ wc cpython/Grammar/Grammar
149 879 6472 cpython/Grammar/Grammar

Even if 1/2 of Ruby's grammar output is whitespace, that's more than twice as much grammar to learn as Python's grammar[1].

I totally get wireless headphones. The problem is, not every device I listen to music on has Bluetooth. I don't take my phone on runs and I'm not buying two sets of headphones. Not to mention, even when I'm not running, I listen to music on my iPod classic and only use my phone for podcasts.
> There are more non-native speakers than native speakers

That is a wonderful point that I've never thought of before.

You can really envision a lingua franca that is English but not American English or British English but Global English.

Second and third generation English speakers who live in a non-English speaking country as a majority of English speakers - will they be like how English is used in India or something completely different?

Fascinating.
Not only does it (descriptively by usage, whatever pedants might prefer) mean exactly what it was used upthread to mean, that usage is structurally distinct from an impossible to confuse with the usage pedants prefer (and helps the pedant-preferred version make sense.)

Then you need to do as the other commenter suggested and send it in for warranty replacement. For things like that, I've never had a problem getting it replaced just by walking in the store. I'm pretty sure you don't even need to go in, but that was always easiest for me.
That's an unrealistically forgiving outlook on this.

You're forced to upgrade when the language you're using upgrades. Or the ecosystem around the product evolves. The IDE doesn't live in a vacuum that will work in perpetuity.

It's realistically much closer to renting than buying as once the updates stop it's not that much longer until the product is no longer usable in a modern environment. Simple example would be if you want to use Kotlin 1.1.4 (latest stable) you must be using Intellij 2016.2 or newer to get the corresponding 1.1.4 kotlin plugin. And if you use an older plugin, the IDE will complain at you and things will be buggy and not work right. Similarly since gradle support is built into the IDE at some point that will fail if your IDE is no longer being updated.

It's not realistic to avoid updating the IDE for long. That's why Jetbrains prominently features subscription and yearly renewals - because you're very nearly forced into it.
