As someone who has been developing iOS apps for 8 years, it’s preetty easy. If you wrote code that depended upon sizes of fundamental types, you didn’t write good code. if you weren’t using resources to lay out UI, you didn’t think ahead. 2x and 3x graphics can be created from your originals with OSX preview.

It’s far easier to rewrite old apps today than ever. The tools are far better. The APIs are far better. Asynchronous code is trivial to implement with GCD nowadays.

The real truth is you won’t pay the developer for their time, so they won’t give it to you. It has nothing to do with Apple.
No, they have to do it as a defensive measure. It sucks, but companies like RedHat do it all the time.
I feel like dating is a good social experience to get started on in high school although. You learn a lot of social skills and things that you wouldn't learn anywhere else.

Also driving is a good skill to learn while still living at the house, it's far more accessible when you don't have to pay for your own car. It's far more expensive to learn when you are in college.
What if you're merely interpreting meta-consciousness according to the mode in which your mind currently operates?
I am also a former defense contractor.

I wonder how much rigor Microsoft's controllers would have to go through to become a defense industry standard. The $500 Hammer legend doesn't exit in a vacuum, and I've experienced why.
I agree, my family has a long history of buying Toyotas. I really, really dislike their usage of entune at the expense of just integrating CarPlay + Android Auto. This is an issue that also will cause me to shop non-Toyota.
All comments so far have been pro-bitcoin... does nobody think this could actually be a sensible decision?
What? Condoms have been around for a long time. Nothing else is really very effective for STDs.

This is a false dichotomy.
At Yelluw:

- Directly contact people who we want to work with and ask them to subscribe to our newsletter.

- Manually send the newsletter to each subscriber. There are over 120 subscribers at the moment. We do not promote the newsletter en masse. Just 1-1 contacts.

- We do manual prospecting on social media by actively looking for people that fit a given profile. This includes forming a relationship with them and actively work to figure out how we can solve their current business challenges.

All thos takes hours of work every day. But its so worth it. Growth is quickly increasing because we treat people like people and not like money bags with legs.

Im currently developing a system to semi-automate the process. You can se the code here: https://github.com/yelluw/amy

A lot of them use the completely invalid 'money multiplier' model, which doesn't follow double-entry accounting rules. Even worse is the high-school kind of 'intermediary model', which imagines that banks lend out the money that people deposit in them.

But when a bank creates a mortgage (which is an asset to them), it has to create a corresponding liability (which is the deposit). They can't lend existing deposits out (or any fraction of them), because it would be a liability with a matching liability.

This means some surprising things - banks don't actually need any existing deposits at all to lend, and they temporarily create new deposits (which has the same status as 'real' money) when they lend. This money, as well as the debt created at the same time, both disappear as the loan is repaid in equal measure.

The way it all works is that because the banks are all transferring a lot of money between themselves, the amount of reserves (and cash, but it's mainly central bank reserves) that they actually need to make payments is only a fraction of the total volume being created and transferred. If they don't have the reserves, they can just borrow them from another bank or the central bank, or on money markets. Of course, it's handy for them for people to deposit money in their bank because it's a cheap way for the bank to get liquidity.

This isn't 'fractional reserve' by the way - that comes from the fact that banks in the US are required by the Fed to have a certain minimum amount of central bank reserves (10% of the amount of their deposits). That is just a measure to ensure they have enough liquidity though. The incorrect 'money multiplier model' comes from a misunderstanding of fractional reserve banking. Most countries don't even have a reserve requirement, instead having capital adequacy requirements.
I fly a lot - in the last 18 months I've flown around 36 segments - half on DL - and half on AS - Delta is no more shitty with pricing than any other full-service carrier.

I flew DTW-BNA (then stayed for a week) BNA-DTW (then stopped for a night) DTW-YYZ (stayed for a week) YYZ-SLC-SEA for about 1200 bucks, for a first class ticket - this is quite reasonable when you consider the segments involved.

Consider that with DL/AS/AA/UA I'm going to pay about the same for a cross country ticket - within 30-40 bucks, even with WN or B6, you're still going to be paying within 100 bucks of the most expensive of the big four, and within 40 bucks of the cheapest on most routes - in general, its 350-500 dollars to fly cross country in the US.

... and yes, I'm perfectly happy to pay extra to have a for-sure, I know its going to be there, isle seat.

Incidentally, every airline charges a high premium for next day travel - even then on DL, I was able to go SEA-DTW-PIT for about 800 round trip, on a ticket booked less than four hours before the flight took off.
So if Signal turns out to have a critical bug will it become relevant that Moxie is a boating enthusiast?
Yea, your refusal to keep it up to date is Apples fault.
craigslist?
There are simple answers Health Insurance affordability in the US. Rationing. No NOT via a single payer system where some all-knowing official decides who does and does not get care. Rather, the rationing is done by the buyer. For example, Buyer one could decide to only buy a policy which covers only generic drugs, which would exclude all patented drugs (newer and even superior), Buyer 2 could decide to buy a policy which covers generic drugs and patented drugs in one or more specialties (e.g., cardiac). The theme is let the buyer decide, not everyone wants to live the last 10 years of their life struggling to regain their youth.
Show HN: Redox Rust OS – v0.3.3 release
Why would it? The govt let's you go to casino, I should be allowed to do what I want with my money. Totalitarian and Aldo totalitarian govts are scared of bitcoin.
If you think government run healthcare is the solution you should talk to any military member or veteran; people are literally killing themselves in VA parking lots because the care is so bad.
When I was in the scene (mid 2000s) it definitely skewed high school and early college. In fact I thought about getting into it at 23 but didn't because I thought I'd be too old.
I agree that the technical screening can go away and be replaced by a chat. I've gotten to know new employees at my work by going for a beer with them and asking "Oh so your iPhone's jailbroken? How'd you do that?" or "So I saw you're using Gnome3, why do you prefer that?" and most of the time they're pretty eager to give a well-thought-out explanation behind those sort of personal computing choices. I really enjoy working with the people who are well-versed in some niche topic like that and can communicate its 'good-enough practices' well.
How much do programmers, devops, etc make in China? I've always wondered, because I think that's where everything is headed in terms of wage parity.
Good luck and make sure to get some kind of heat source to cook on. Cold canned food tastes horrible. :/
No, that is not 'easy enough'. Many people would find that an insurmountable barrier, actually. (I certainly have no desire to walk up to a stranger in public and ask for the means of sexual gratification in exchange for money.)
Just how reliable are a lot of these websites?

Exploring Simple Game Algorithms with Color Walk: Part 1
Thank you for taking the time to respond.

Do you know why the project is released under a custom license, rather than something familiar? If this could be summarized in a few simple sentences I'd appreciate it. Ain't nobody got time to read all that legalese.

For example: is the purpose of the license to prevent commercial re-use? In other words: what does this custom license accomplish that no normal OSI-approved license could?
Not all users are tech savvy. Some people just want one site to be their go-to when connecting with other users.
So you wrote clones of better selling apps?
No, the thing that is actually happening is the switch is not getting flipped to disconnect when the grid goes out. Which means the solar panels also need to stop producing power, and leave the house entirely without power.

That is literally the thing people are complaining about here.

Really, the iPhone 7 was just the 6SS. The 'S' revision was spec and camera bumps, but no major case changes and the 7 made no case differences over the 6S.

But probably a 6SS or whatever wouldn't have sold as well, so they shipped a 7, and now the 8 actually does change the case significantly (glass back) and so thats not a 'S' revision.

No product cycle will play out perfectly in a versioning scheme, and your only surprised about the missing 'S' because they have had a naming scheme that has been surprisingly consistent for this long!

Next year will be the iPhone A...

>from a seemingly well-designed and very conservative study

I'd dispute that. As i mentioned above, the sample is "javascript github projects". Github is used, at least in my country, often as scratchpad for bootcamp studies (in Javascript of course). This means in a given month, 200+ repositories created of code made by total beginners. Is this representative of your development team?
Shouldn't the price then basically be the same our cheaper if I was willing to lock myself into a multi year contract? I won't know my health status in say five years.
It may differ for you but coding is (sadly) not where the majority of my time is spent. A lot of it is in data files, logs, sql scripts, etc. For a lot of those tasks fast editing makes a big difference. Sql in particular is verbose and repetative yet fairly unstructured, a vim macro is a great way to do bulk updates. Another would be something like adding a parameter to a function called in many places, the repeat command is a fantastic way to apply it everywhere.
No. the universe isn't conscious. The universe is matter. Consciousness is a part of the universe. Therefore consciousness is simply material. Nothing more, nothing less.

It's just that our egos are too big to accept that we are nothing more than dirt.
Yes, 5 years of constant updates for every phone is so short, especially compared to Androids zero years.
That's what the hospitals have been doing recently through consolidation of both hospitals and private practices. Not reducing their costs overall per se, but trying to grow as much as possible to increase buying power. I'm of the opinion that this is a bad road to go down, one with a lower degree of competition and choice compared to what we had 15 years ago.
All 2 comments? Both of which are more about general policy than bitcoin-specific?

China is a closed economy, it makes sense that they would put a ban on a technology which outside of speculative investment is largely used to facilitate money laundering.
You're right, I'll edit that. Some meta-programming features do require sacrifices in performance, but not in the case of Codable.

Price transparency doesn't really help when you can't factor in all the potential costs and unknowns. It certainly is of no use when there's a life threatening emergency.

A birth might be a flat $4000 but what happens if the mother has high blood pressure and needs to be on a magnesium drip? Or the baby is in distress and there's an emergency caesarean? Are you going to call around for a better rate?

The problem with our medical system is insurance. Insurance companies are always playing games to avoid paying bills and they force medical providers to play games to get paid. Vast amounts of money are wasted in billing and claims departments trying to process or deny claims.

It's gotten to the point where an insurer can fine the insured for submitting a claim with a code that requires prior authorization after seeking care from a healthcare provider. I'm not sure how pricey transparency would help with that.
And they have been replaced by better, compatible apps.
I can't help wondering if teens working less is because so many of the jobs traditionally held by high school kids are now critical income for low income adults. As others have observed, not working has a knock on effect on other activities
Why not? Most medical care isn't urgent. Cancer treatment, joint replacement, heart surgery are a few examples. Most of the time you're waiting a week to do the procedure.
Why not? The App Store has always kept around your older apps when you stated on older operating systems.
30 LinkedIn Marketing expert advice and tips
We've invested a lot in Go at Segment and introducing a new language isn't cost-free, building the expertise, tools, and processes to work with a new technology takes time and energy. It's way more time efficient for us to learn how to build better Go code. While this post focuses on the optimizations, this is only part of the development process, and Go is still an amazing tool to design, implement, and test software, and on top of that it gives us the ability to address those performance issues when they come up.

I don't know about high schoolers but the college kids are still definitely getting black-out drunk with regularity.
> .. that perhaps 'our ability to think about the issue is constrained by our language' and '[consciousness] workings being inaccessible to introspection' are the same thing.

I like to think about it that way, but it makes the problem feel intractable.

The problem is that we want to describe consciousness as "that thing that allows an organism to describe consciousness as 'that thing that allows an organism to describe consciousness as ´that thing that allows an organism to describe consciousness as [...]´'"

Half of millennials didn't even vote in 2016. And people who did vote should know the weight of their vote varies by what state they live in.

I'm only surprised the % of millennials giving up their right to vote isn't far higher.
honest question, hasn't it been totalitarian for like the past 70 years?
The standard fractional reserve/money multiplier story is provably wrong, in several different ways. With a pen and paper for example, work through what happens when loans are repaid with that cascade of banks.

They missed a note that money is destroyed when the capital is repaid, and it wouldn't have hurt to discuss loan defaults, but as set out, it is definitely an improvement on the old incorrect description. (Which appears to have originated as a copy and paste error from Keynes original description in the Macmillan report.)
Can you give any more details on "China's economy is crashing"? I must admit I haven't heard anything negative about their economy, thought it was on the up and up.
Orange Camouflage Eye Makeup Tutorial (NEW TREND?)
HN has a fair amount of "Bitcoin is overvalued" people as well. Note that the type of thread to reach the top of HN tends to be something groundbreaking, which will skew the discussion to the extremes.

Also, the comment you are responding to complained about all of three pro-bitcoin comments (Two top level) that were all posted less than 3 minutes before his.

This seems a little unfair to me as it's possible that this thread was likely buried (hence no replies for >1h) and just surfaced to the top of HN.

I speculate there's a lot more resentment on HN towards cryptocurrencies than you might expect.

No they don't. There are plenty of countries that have private insurance. Switzerland, Singapore, etc.

Unless i'm missing something, this machine is a beast. 13MW sounds right by my math.

Retrofits may be expensive, but think about what low costs mean for new builds, especially multi-unit dwellings - well, not highrises that lack enough rooftop space, but lowrises and townhomes.
It genuinely blows my mind that some of the top comments are pro-socialized medicine.

This is a forum populated primarily by hackers and people interested in starting or working at start-ups -- should we also have a single payer of all hackers? The notion is laughable, but it's put forth seriously when it comes to medical care. Like all problems of costs being "too high" this one is caused by artificially restricted supply (govt regulation of medical system) and skyrocketing demand (much of which is driven by the abysmal nutrition advice the US govt has doled out over the past 50 years which has only made 2/3 of the country obese and overweight).

Control economies do not work, how much more evidence do we need before people stop saying "this time is different, we just need the RIGHT people this time"?
No offence intended and these terms are not tightly defined but I would call your imaged a 'baked' image.

My feeling is that I don't know how long a base-image will stick around. If ca-certificates is installed in my base image it may end up trusting revoked certificates.

IMHO it is better to know you need to install/bake in ca-certs from a trusted source than to having a built in, potentially compromised CA cert installed.

Baked images, which I use to reduce instantiation time, or 'golden' images that are immutable infrastructure tend to have shorter lifespans and the CA package is carried in the application dependencies and more likely to be up to date.

Gun laws? Who said anything about gun laws. I actually think we should take a much different approach than silly bans, like maybe geographic analysis of dealer sales vs permits/ownership records to identify illegal sales.

I'm talking financial analysis and quality of life.
No, it will cause the medical industry to do less. A big reason (though not the only reason) why the US is so expensive is because way more medical procedures are done here vs. other countries.
Exactly it can't keep going up and up.

Goodwork Julia team!

Celeste is a huge leap forward. We combined the speed of Julia with one of the world’s most powerful supercomputers to set a new performance record and solve a real-world problem. When the LSST begins producing data in two years time, Celeste will be even faster, more accurate and more advanced. Celeste remains number one on our Top Ten List of Big Data Problems for a good reason.
Yes, yes it has. I'll never understand why people are perpetually surprised when China bans X, or rounds up people for doing Y.
And some can increase performance. Thanks for thinking about this though, it's one of the things I appreciate about this place.
How old are you? I had the same problem as a kid...first 20 years, really. Then I started 40+ hours/week and cramming stuff into my nights so soon I was so tired I was able to go to sleep very quickly. Then 10-15 years later I added kids to the mix, and now I can go to sleep basically on-demand any time of day. Power naps are critical; coffee and knock off for 20 minutes. Feel alive after.
Huh? You think it's the insurance companies who are making the profit? You do realize that ACA caps their margins, right?
Keyboard Maestro 8.0
The problem is VPN is now banned unless it's recognized by the state (must be registered). You can still try to use the underground VPN, but not guaranteed. The GFC knows everything in and out. It is one of the most acclaimed and sophisticated closed source networking system in the world. They can toggle on and off in matters of minutes. They have a huge work force monitoring their internet and censoring speech in no time.

Of course the Chinese government are aware of existing circumvention, but they still allowed them because they want to capture data. They let these circumvention to exist even though they have the brightest engineers in China working for them. I vaguely remember a talk from RealCrypto a number of years ago, someone presented how one could try to escape GFC by sending data over different protocols and then resemble by the recipient. It's an ingenious circumvention that is quite hard to decipher, until someone recognizes a traffic pattern, then Chinese government knows.

Money laundering is currently not an issue, it has more to do with capital controls.
