The problem is not the notch but the rounded corners.

I think they wanted to show how "cool" is the whole edge-to-edge screen with all the four rounded borders. If you black out the notch and keep that side square, then you must do the same on the other side and the screen will just look like the old rectangular display.

While I'm sure there will be some option to do this, at least for video, for me, a square shaped phone would have made sense.
I think there are a few disadvantages Reddit has here. The first that comes to mind is that website administrators, especially for large and politically-charged sites, might like Reddit's software, but not its ... um, culture. "Just embed Reddit" sounds approximately like "just embed 4chan".

While smaller sites are happy to give up some control for the sake of easily adding a major feature to their site, larger businesses are probably going to want to own their own content and self-host their code as much as possible. Reddit has a non-trivial set of dependencies (https://github.com/reddit/reddit/wiki/Dependencies), so it's not very attractive as far as that goes.

My from-my-ass guess is that once Reddit ended up in the mainstream news a few times for some drama or another, it lost the opportunity to be taken seriously as an embeddable feature by other major sites.
> isn't that about right given a 19% sales tax?

If we purely compare prices without tax then 999$ are currently 835€, compared to 965€ (1149/1.19) on the german side. Or as the original post was about CAD, the 1320 CAD are 905€, which is somewhere in between. Which means before taxes the phone gets already more expensive here, and after taxes even more. But this is nothing new for the iphone X and also not limited to phones. Electronics are usually more expensive here.

> if not, what would be an identical EUR price for the $999 phone (tax not included)?

The question is what is an identical price? Based on end-user price and actual exchange rates? Maybe 920€, since that should be what is costs in the US after tax. Based on the average disposable income in the target markets? Don't know. Based on what people are willing to pay in each market? Or based on what the phone manufacturer simply wants it to be priced in each marked?
30 years ago some would have said the idea of not being able to years without a battery recharge seems....
Because being technically correct while strawmanning the other person's position for your comment to even be relevant is the worst, not best, kind of correct. Being technically correct is only the best kind of correct if your technical point is actually relevant.

Having a "technical conversation" would require you engaged with the person you were replying to, not engaging in what can only be described as "technical trolling".

For the record, the vocal "technical trolls" are why I don't like systemd, despite having little opinion on the technical merits.
The pre-systemd behavior is that the order is not really completely predictable.

First of all, DNS queries are usually made with UDP. There is no ack or retransmission with UDP, and the network stack is free to drop messages if necessary, such as if a queue fills up or the network is congested. (Hence it has the nickname "Unreliable Datagram Protocol".)

Second, "man resolv.conf" has this to say about what happens when you have multiple DNS servers listed: "The algorithm used is to try a name server, and if the query times out, try the next, until out of name servers, then repeat trying all the name servers until a maximum number of retries are made."

Consider what happens when you combine those two together. You roll the dice and send a UDP request to the first server. Then it rolls the dice by sending a UDP response to you. If that doesn't work, you send to the second server. If that doesn't work, then you try the first server again.

TLDR: In the case of lost packets, which you must assume happen because it's UDP, it alternates between servers. The only thing that's guaranteed is which one comes up in the rotation first.
Sure. Though maybe he could say it a little louder than just a comment on a random blog post. Just a thought
I'll use x86-32 for elaboration [1]. When the CPU sees the byte sequence 0xB8 0x90 0x41 0x5A 0x7B, it has to interpet what those bytes mean. It sees the 0xB8, so then it knows that you are loading the EAX register with an immedate value. The next four bytes (0x90, 0x41, 0x5A, 0x7B) are read and stored into EAX (as 0x7B5A4190, because Intel is little endian).

That is the case for all instructions. Each one is interpreted by the CPU. And for modern CPUs, even translated into an internal format that is futher interpreted.

I take mine off when I get to bed and put it on the nightstand where it just drops onto my charger without much effort. If I don't charge it, it'll usually last until the next day. It'll last in low power mode giving a time for up to 2-3 days.

Yes, I am commenting anonymously. It's necessary.

Cruise Automation can produce a good demo. Shortcuts have been taken to produce good-looking results.

Don't be deceived. No car running the current software (or any software derived from it) will ever operate reliably.

Posted below, you will find a deleted comment from one of my fellow Cruise employees. That comment is accurate in its characterization of both Kyle and Cruise's technology.
If by class of bugs you mean "munging the stack," yes - but the difference is in the effect on integrity of the total system. In monolithic kernels, if an attacker can monopolize on the situation (by defeating mitigations, if any) and control execution-flow, they can run code on ring 0. This isn't the case if you're on a microkernel where a bluetooth driver lives in userspace.
Err…that’s what I meant. Let me fix it.
People abuse that stuff when life sucks.

So widespread opiate abuse is a symptom of a "sick society", right?
Or, if one needs those 5% moments on phones, it's always a possibility (as stated on the keynote) to add password additionally.

> The apparent [appeal] of this message wasn’t limited to chauvinist TechBros. Many “moderate” commentators also seemed quite impressed. After all, the memo wasn’t arguing that all men, or even most of them, are better suited than women for tech jobs. That would be ridiculous! But since the existence of sex differences in some traits is scientifically uncontroversial, some supporters of the Google Memo claimed the scientific high-ground. “You see? We aren’t sexist or biased”, they proclaimed. “This is just science.” And you can’t hate on science.

The tone of this introduction doesn't inspire confidence that the author is truth-seeking without agenda.

> Remember, a 1 SD shift is a pretty big one (e.g. a difference of 3 inches for height), so not suprisingly, the evidence seems to suggest that the 10% increase in the mean is the more realistic scenario for most variables where differences seem to exist.

Several times he references the Stevens/Haidt results, but doesn't seem to acknowledge this finding from Stevens/Haidt (https://heterodoxacademy.org/2017/08/10/the-google-memo-what...):

> Gender differences in interest and enjoyment of math, coding, and highly “systemizing” activities are large. The difference on traits related to preferences for “people vs. things” is found consistently and is very large, with some effect sizes exceeding 1.0. (See especially the meta-analyses by Su and her colleagues, and also see this review paper by Ceci & Williams, 2015).
Thanks for giving us your feedback, means a lot. At the moment we've aimed this at businesses, and are seeing a fair bit of response asking for something consumer focused.

Definitely thinking about how we could approach this.

They already butchered the MacBook Pro with the TouchBar last year. And all for a 30 second demo during the keynote. Here's hoping that FaceID actually works and isn't FacePalmID :/
What is an order?
iOS has supported AAC over Bluetooth A2DP for years. For some reason, it's not as widely supported by headphone makers as aptX.
Wireless headphones pop out when running; wired phones have a convenient wire tethering them to one's phone.
Do you have a federal court decision to cite? Your other comments pointed to two state court decisions (FL and VA).
If you're trying to do UT1 (70%-80% of max HR) training and instead you're doing UT2 (55%-70%) or AT (80%-85%), then you're not going to get the benefits you were going for.

Further, the only way you can accurately measure your rate of improvement is by comparing average watts across time at a fixed HR. So if your HR isn't at your target level then not only are you not going to be making progress at an acceptable rate, but you're not even going to know that you're not on track until it's already too late.
Lightweight text editor that doesn't drive you crazy the first time you try to quit it? ;-) As I said in another comment, I'm a daily vi user, but that's almost always when it's my only option. And that's been the case for well over a decade now. I just happen to feel more comfortable using sublime text; I always know how to do what I need to do, it's obvious, it's a pleasant experience. But I totally get some people have the same experience with vi/Emacs, and that's cool.
As responded above, we've aimed this at businesses.

Seems like we'd have success also targeting this at consumers, for personal use. Something for us to think about.
There are other media organizations that decided to disable the comments' section. I remember reading something about it last week [1](https://medium.com/@AJEnglish/why-were-disabling-comments-on...). Instead of fighting Fake accounts, this company decided to allow comments only on social media platforms. Places where they cannot collect enough information to fight back "Fake commenters ".

If I have to wait 3 minutes for a bus instead of 2, I am 'qualitatively worse off', but that extra minute doesn't flip into being 'a tire fire'.
I figured granular security has more of an enterprise appeal than consumer, and I still don't really see it.

Email, for example. Day-to-day our normal authentication should cover what's in my inbox and/or the last few months of messages. A "deep dive" of emails from 10 years ago should probably have a second level of authentication. You don't access them that often. Yet, once your compromised your whole history of emails can get slurped up very quickly.

I pointed out to my wife not to email anything with our ssn to our tax guy. She kind of balked, but I pointed out if in 10 years he's compromised it's probably still in his email and trivial to scan for ssn or tax documents.

It's been years, but I was at a company that switched to an auto-delete policy after 90 days or something. I thought it was compliance related, but I also think they encouraged you to store important messages in a local inbox which would seem to contradict that.
Perhaps, but what if they ensured that FaceID only worked when you had both eyes open? It would then, be much easier to be non-compliant than it would with TouchID since it's harder to hold someone's eyes open without obscuring the face than it is to press the phone's home button against someone's finger.

Wink/Blink if you don't want to unlock your phone seems, to me, to give more consent to unlock than a fingerprint.
This is also phenomenal for when you're battery-limited. You can turn off one of the two devices and save its battery for if you really, absolutely, must need to make a phone call at some later point in the day.
It's amazing they can make screens that are non-rectangular. Are there any details on the manufacturing of them?
I understand your point, I just hijacked your comment to voice my frustration about current trends.

I tried checking the actual size of the JS being loaded, but since the site for an article I opened made over 500 requests to load the page after I turned off add blockers I gave up. In their case, 300kB _is_ tiny.
What would mAH tell you? Do you know the power consumption of the A11 chip, OLED screen, wireless stack, motion coprocessor, etc?

It's not like you can compare battery life between an iPhone and a JoJoMe $20 android phone based on mAH - that would be even less useful than an estimate of battery life.

Man, Eclipse used to be such a dog. I was overjoyed when the Android SDK moved to IntelliJ.

Depends the way you look at it. The final data is generally available within a couple minutes, but the data itself is not collected instantaneously. At least for the full-disk scenes, the collection takes 11 minutes so the top of the image is captured 11 minutes before the bottom.
Actually, I believe it has a barometric altimeter, for measuring height - e.g. flights of stairs climbed.
I run DNS on my file server since it's on all the time anyway. It must fail gracefully or the wife approval factor goes down.
No they don't. They behave like a username/password combination. A username is an individual identifier and a password is a confirmation that the identifier is valid for the person it's identifying. TouchID and FaceID confirm both - that it's the correct user that has access and that the user is who they say they are.
Do you have an example of where they don’t follow their guidelines? In my experience they’re pretty good about it; it’s Google that can’t get it together and follow Material Design or whatever their new guide is.
> Doesn't science build off other science? When one scientist takes the conclusion of another study for granted (Example that X drug is effective), and then tries to build off of it with their own study (testing if A or B delivery method is more effective), doesn't it become obvious fairly quickly the second study is based on a bad conclusion of the first study?

Indeed. In fact, this is extremely common in biology. It’s possible that some fields need to confront the replication crisis (psychology, for example, is frequently cited and the subject of the OP), but I really don’t see this in my field.
Because you get the retail value of the power you push into the grid, the TOU plans aren't that bad because you get more "money" for your excess power. You pay more when you use, but they pay you more when you produce.
Not the wrong direction, just not far enough.

Learning assembly is great, and every programmer should dive into at least a simpler version of it, but it's not exactly the best way to learn how your high-level language is implementing tail-call optimization.
Interesting. Totally possible that I just never learned the power of tagged template literals, I only tried styled-components for a couple weeks.
That has not been my experience with vim (over the past ~12 years). I don't run a huge amount of plugins, but I do use a few. The only thing I have a noticeable occasional lag with is the parinfer clojure plugin (in neovim, and its more that the plugin lags before applying its changes rather than vim itself lagging - the author does acknowledge that its currently sub-optimal). Syntax highlighting has never caused any issues for me. I wonder why you are having issues... that does sound rather annoying.

I was also referring to the typing latency as measured by the benchmarks here: https://pavelfatin.com/typing-with-pleasure/ As you can see, vim's text input latency is measurably lower than most of the other tested editors on most platforms (zero-latency IDEA seems to beat it in some cases).
It's also worth noting that Stockpile and fractional shares aren't only for people who want less than one share of stock. The benefit of fractional shares allows you to buy stock in whatever dollar amount you're comfortable with. For example, if you want to buy $100 worth of SNAP stock, which is about $15 per share, then you'd get 6.6667 shares of stock. Your shares go up and down with the market fluctuations just like owning stock in whole share amounts.
But that feels like a marketing fail.

Re: black bar. For what it's worth, folks that reviewed the Essential Phone said that the notch on the top does "go away" after using it for a few days.

What I am more disappointed about is Apple not going with a curved display. It looks amazing on the S8 and taking it edge to edge would have made for an incredible bezel-less illusion.
Whatever you think about DK the fact that someone of his stature would admit when an error was made not just a small one but something as big as this. That in and of itself is something worth applauding.

You also owe taxes if you exchange one digital currency for another, e.g. BTC for ETH, equivalent to if you had sold the BTC for USD.

I don't remember if IntelliJ Community Edition's license disallows usage of third-party plugins for languages already coered by JetBrains's paid products.

If not, anyone can create e.g. a free and open Python or Ruby IDE inside the familiar IntelliJ IDE experience, e.g. by adopting IDE-like software used in Emacs, Vim, or Sublime.

See also: language servers. I think that the future is "the editor of your choice" + "the language servers you can afford". JetBrains's IDE is already modular, but these modules just happen to run in the same Java process. This limitation of IDE architecture can be overcome, and companies like Microsoft keep pouring efforts into it.

I started by reading the comments section here on HN. Couldn't find any solid information about what this Mozilla thing actually is.

So I broke down, and clicked the link to actually read the source article. Still couldn't find any meaningful information about the thing.

You're right, I'm runnin 9.3.5, just checked. I thought I was running 10. Regardless, the 4S has been a true workhorse and I don't think Apple makes them this robust any more (obviously, Apple lost money on me by making such a reliable phone that I didn't need to replace it!).
I spend hours running outside in the winter, too, and find that electronics of any form are mostly unreliable when it gets cold enough. I run with a Garmin GPS watch, and after several hours of single digit temperatures (F), the watch will often die. Phones don't even last that long. I doubt these will be any better in the same situation.

Yeah, I think waiting for Apple to give you that is probably some misplaced hope.
My grandmother (in South Australia) didn't agree when they instituted house numbers (in the 1960s I believe) and continued to gave out her house name, never the number. I still have no idea what her house number was.

I'm not sure how she voted (it's compulsory in AUS) but apart that (possible) problem it seemed to cause no inconvenience.

How it could have played out:

IRS: Exchanges need to generate 1099s.

Coinbase: We're sending out those 1099s now.

What happened instead:

IRS: Everybody calculate your own Bitcoin capital gains on the honor system; we trust you.

Coinbase: Yeah suckers, calculate that stuff yourself.

IRS: Hey wait, nobody is reporting Bitcoin gains. Let's sue Coinbase to hoover up every scrap of data they have and spend a lot of money on social media/blockchain analysis.

Coinbase: We're fighting this overbroad lawsuit to the death!

It sure seems like there's an obvious solution to this issue and both sides know what it is, but they're choosing lawsuits instead.
that doesn't make sense. so basically if you trade BTC for ETH for BTC for USD you have to pay taxes 3 times on the same money?
While I think Tim was much more expressive this time around, I still think he sounds too stiff and rehearsed. The one thing that Steve did incredibly well was make his keynotes sound improvised, even though they weren't. I'm not sure if Tim will ever get there, as it's kind of a character trait. Phil and Cue are better at it, IMO.
