Beyond Encodings: A Critical Look at the Terminology of Text Graphics – CHIPFLIP
Does it affect only 6(S)?

I'm thinking about getting SE as I have small hands and it looks like a perfect fit but I think it's kind of pointless to get a new iPhone with so serious, known and most likely impossible to fix, bug?

SE is expensive to me as it is, I don't want to replace battery every year or so (I'm a heavy user).
Not sure about Apple, but on a hackintosh you can install Nvidia Geforce drivers that allow you to turn on GSync.
It's not an experiment.
Exactly. Indeed, from what I recall from relational database theory, joins are usually treated as cartesian products (outer joins) which are then filtered by the join condition.
>No, the problem is that Apple can do whatever the fuck they want and people still will literally rip the entire stock out of Apple Stores.

Ie. "the world is idiots and I know better" as opposed "people have different priorities".

>The newest Macbook Pros still have 16GB RAM tops

And for a very good reason. Low-powered (suitable for laptop use) support for 32GB memory wasn't there in Intel chipsets. But not only you didn't bother to investigate, but you know better.

>and not a single miniDP or USB connector, thus leaving people with a pile of useless junk when they upgrade

Or, you know, they can buy a couple of $10 USB-C cables or a $50 hub and be done with it. I prefer the move towards USB-C only faster, than them releasing yet another laptop with 5 different types of ports that will drag on the migration.

Reinventing Email Marketing with EMMARES
>Today the FCC does not impose rate regulation, for example, but maybe tomorrow's FCC will. Of course, now it is becoming clear that the rules will change whenever the presidency changes parties, so if anything it would seem that there is far more regulatory uncertainty with Pai's approach.

This is also why the health insurance industry was overwhelmingly opposed to the Republican healthcare plan, why the financial industry was opposed to certain Republican regulation rollbacks, etc. All the infrastructure they'd built to refocus their business around the regulations might now be useless, but probably not, because there's a decent chance the Democrats might recapture the Senate and/or Presidency in 4-8 years.

Uncertainty is expensive and exhausting. Businesses are desperate for a compromise that lasts. Drastic and potentially ephemeral GOP regulation-slashing really serves no one except their own donor class -- not even big business, let alone small business and the middle class.
When comparing the two, keep in mind that JSON is a self-descriptive format while protobuf is not.
agree hugely with the sibling reply, by coldtea.

Also bear in mind that app developers are also reactive to Apple's choices. (If they need to optimize their software, they will do so. On the other hand, if they can skip optimizing by just telling users to turn on a setting, many will do just that.)

I'd rather Apple make developers have to look up what an algorithm is, and spend hours - hours! - of their life turning an iterative exhaustive search into a binary search (for example), because they have to work on a slow core too, than for me to have to dig around in settings, turn on a "Force high-CPU usage" and let developers keep being lazy.

This goes for Apple's developers too, and I realize their own first-party software such as the OS is too slow on the low-power core. I mentioned this above.

I stand by my original comment.

Bear in mind that there might be applications that use state of the art algorithms, can run, but just barely, on the high-powered cores but not on the low-power cores, and are not intermittant. I am saying that it is acceptable to have to replace battery every 24 months, or plug in the phone, if you want to keep using them.

I can give you another analogy for why I don't agree with your take. Back in the day there was an "iPhone hand warmer" that drained the battery and spun the processors. These days that application would get throttled, it would not be able to warm up the phone by draining its battery.

In my opinion this is correct.

I'm confused by Plasticbank. They seem to pay for plastic. While they divert plastic from oceans, doesn't paying for plastic increase demand?

Ask HN: Which software/services help you be an effective remote Product Manager?
[Anticipating the inevitable comment about being on-site, of course there can be advantages to a PM being on-site, however there are plenty of cases of remote PM's from very large organizations to startups, and sometimes the distance and focus that comes from avoiding mindless meetings can significantly boost a PM's productivity and contribution]
The problem here is that I've had the exact same thing happen, and zero attempt was given. The stupid part? My modem was not EOL, was a BYOM (bring your own modem) that had many years left before EOL. I'm pretty damn sure they're using this as a "first line of contact," not final.

Well I misread it as amd64, thought it "can't be possible" and had to come down to this thread to realise the nature of my mistake.

aarch32 and aarch64 are strictly ARMv8, while arm32, being informal, could really be a catch-all term for all the previous ones. I don't know of any aarch32 distro though, they all seem to limit to ARMv7hf, which is sad because on a Raspberry Pi 3 you can't get the VideoCore binaries and v8 instruction set: going 64bit means most hardware does not work (at least: no X/wayland, no 3D, no sound), and some benchmarks have shown that they bring up 15-20% performance improvements.

Anyway, this is basically the same debate as x64 vs x86-64 vs amd64 and mostly bike shedding at the end of the day.

Interesting, wonder if Indians see it as a tiny bit ironic that Facebook then turns around and campaigns for net neutrality is US.

Nothing the SV can do. It's a user problem, not a technical problem.

Go down your building. Look at people throwing trash. Do they bother to split paper, plastic or glass? Not at all. They'd throw anything into the closest trash.
To be fair, I'd say "good engineers" especially where Comcast is, probably choose their employer not the other way around. Not to say whether they are right or wrong for working there, but we shouldn't pretend "good engineers" are otherwise destitute.
Hey, I do that, too, but just OBS, YouTube, and private videos with explicit sharing.

Pretty much every binary format will encode integers using a fixed width or varlen scheme in "base 2".

This generally is done for two major reasons: First of all, such an encoding is significantly easier and cheaper to parse than a base10+ascii (human-readable) encoding.

I encourage you to write a parser that reads a fixed, 32-bit binary number (1) and another parser that reads a JSON-formatted number string into an internal variable in a classic language like Java or C++. You will immediately see the big difference in complexity. Make sure your parser can also deal with a message that contains more than just one number, i.e. the parser should be able to tell at which byte index an encoded number begins and ends. Even if you're using a language or library where this is hidden from you (e.g. by using parseInt or std::stod) the same work still happens behind the scenes.

The other reason is that for most numbers and fixed/varint encoding schemes, the "binary" representation will be much more compact. Storing the number "1000000" in base10+ascii (human readable) takes at least eight bytes. Storing the same number in a fixed 32-bit integer encoding takes four bytes. Using a varint encoding scheme might allow you to get down to three bytes.

(1) Ignoring stuff like byte order and representation of negative numbers; this is usually fixed in the protocol/format specification.
An outer join a Cartesian product is not.

Even if you stick to ordinary (inner) joins, they are pullbacks, not products.

I agree that good audio is important, but we never had software problems... we just got everyone high quality headsets, and then the standard conferencing, skype or hangouts worked just fine for us. The only exceptions were people with poor internet connections at their home. I'd invest more into hardware and network than anything else.

Reinforcing the importance of dumb mistakes...

A friend wrote a heartfelt essay in a campus magazine that the rest of us found laughable. We taunted and laughed at him for years about it.

A couple years ago he won a Pulitzer Prize. The lineage from that essay to the prize is obvious in retrospect to me and probably looking forward for him at the time.

It's never too late for your dumb mistake. I'm 46 and my just-released podcast -- https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/leadership-and-the-envir... -- which opened at #38 in Science on iTunes, emerged from laughable mistakes I made public speaking on the environment earlier this year.
The article's thesis may or may not be correct, but the proponents of the argument do themselves no favors by conflating programmers with data-entry clerks.

There has never been a better time to be a woman in the valley. My female family members have gotten a job everywhere they have interviewed, even at the top tier. There is no "pushing out" now, infact its the opposite, everyone from recruiter to the hiring managers have high level okr's and bonuses for finding and hiring women.

Is it really necessary to dig out some skeletons and create some controversy where there is none.

I'm not sure if I described that clearly. The director who was detained was trying to keep the disabled people in the poop, because "corporate policy." The guy who beat him up, got a black eye in the process, and drew a gun was trying to get them out.

When the police arrived they sided with the guy trying to get the people out of the poop.
On multiple occasions, Pai has indicated he is going to roll these rules back regardless of what anyone says. He did claim that he would entertain a sound argument proving that Title II hasn't hurt investment, but the only way to prove that is with the cooperation of the entities that stand to profit.

This is why there is a good chance this will be tied in the federal courts. The comment process is supposed to prevent an "arbitrary and capricious" decision by a federal agency. Pai's comments could be used to make a persuasive argument that this is arbitrary (says we're desperate doesn't help). Capricious is a much harder thing to prove. I think the fact that data shows the comment period was tainted by foreign entities, false entries, and that 98.5% of the valid comments were in support of NN could use to show this is capricious in that his actions show a disregard for the consumer.

We don't use it for async collaboration. So we have one "driver" who takes the notes and when we're done and ready to move to the PM, one of us transfers the tasks. One of our devs pretty much started this trend.

Here's what it usually looks like:

* Project name

* * Large Project section [manually added point value]

* * * task name [pt value]

- further notes on task (really shouldn't be there, task should be very self-explanatory and atomic)

* Estimate

* * Pt value total for the project and estimation math.

I know, I read the whole thing. Glass is also made of limestone, fyi.

1) Oil was less expensive, inflation-adjusted, in 1994 than it is today ($30/bbl) 2) Only very specific sand is in short supply today (construction and fracking sand, neither of which is fungible with arbitrary sand) 3) Glass is made of natural gas.

Quantum Computing for Morons
Data structures (vectors, hashmaps, trees), I/O, etc. are all part of the stdlib, and their rich feature sets make an API reference essential. You can certainly write Rust without it, but you’d be missing out on a lot of useful functionality.
Sure! It's the 2nd best choice. Reuse as much as possible. What can't be reused, recycle. But it's significantly better to recycle it than throw it in the garbage for almost everyone.
I have an SE, nearly 2 years old and I didn’t notice any difference in performance with iOS 11, only improvements in the UI. Definately nothing as described by iPhone 6 owners which makes me think this is specific to certain devices.

By the way, the name describes the product _exactly_. The infrastructure enables stopping functionality in JavaScript programs. It stop-ifies them. Hence Stopify.
Thanks, you're the first person that explain me the costs. Not totally free but almost, and vastly cheaper than a 10% figure I saw in some comments.

Where can I read more information about those requirements without having to read the full law?
>But it costs more for most of the things. For example, for glass:

You literally chose the worst material (recycling-wise) for your example.

Glass is made of molten sand -- the raw materials are cheap, and all the energy goes into melting it and forming it into the right shape.

Metal is energy-intensive and ecologically damaging to extract and refine[1][2][3], but shaping it from ingots/billets/blooms/slabs to finished product is a relatively small part of that footprint.

Paper is the same story, requiring a lot of "cooking" to break down wood into fibers (much more energy-intensive than re-pulping paper). And there's the footprint of paper forestry itself, which often uses herbicide to control weedy underbrush.

Plastics, similarly, are made of an energy-intensive raw material (it's solid oil essentially), but the process from pellets to finished product (typically injection molding) uses comparatively little energy.

Remember, recycling is near the bottom (least favorable options) of the waste hierarchy.[4] My philosophy? Reduce plastic, reuse glass, and recycle metal and paper.

As your parent points out:

> As for how "simple" replacing the battery is, I don't consider a $79 repair that requires an appointment and driving to an Apple Store and wasting an hour of my day "simple".

A support program is still far more trouble than user-replaceable batteries.
> And the response, "we're not trying to sell you a modem, we're just encouraging you to strongly consider buying a new one"

Making up quotes like this is against HN guidelines (and common decency).
True evil isn't of the calculating kind. It's the incredibly stupid kind.
I doubt that. Not all speculation is gambling. They say:

"Gains and losses incurred on Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies are chargeable or allowable for CGT if they accrue to an individual [...]"

But also:

"depending on the facts, a transaction may be so highly speculative that it is not taxable or any losses relievable"

In my opinion, this means that gains from regular buying and selling of bitcoin are very likely subject to CGT, and that there would have to be an additional element of risk or chance to make it more speculative in order to be exempt from CGT.

I wouldn't want to defend any other position and therefore I will be including my bitcoin gains (and potentially losses) in my CGT tax return.
Honestly, I've been remote for 5 years now (September 2012) and it's never been an issue for me. A combination of video calls, a decent chat client, and any work organization tool (something with tickets, assignment, and comments) had meant I've always felt more productive at home then in the office.

I've used more than one of each of the above and o never found that low quality caused issues as long as it was close to real time.

The hardest part is questions: they're asynchronous much of the time. Calendar software with appointments is the cure for questions that must be asked synchronously.

What are you having trouble with? That may help you get better responses.
> Must have: Tooling that can interact on a file or sub directory level. Git cannot do that.

I mean, when you get big, sure. But until you're big, git is fine. Working at fb, I don't use some crazy invocation to replace `hg log -- ./subdir`, I just do `hg log -- ./subdir`. Sparse checkouts are useful, but their necessity is based on your scale - the bigger you are, the more you need them. Most companies aren't big enough to need them.

> Should have: Access control to view and change file on a subdirectory basis. Everyone can see the repo so you can't permissions users per repo anymore. It's optional but these companies have that.

Depends on your culture (and regulatory requirements). I prefer companies where anyone can modify anyone's code.

> Recommended: Global search tools, global refactoring tools, global linting that can identify file types automatically and apply sane rules, unit test checks and on commit checks available out of the box for everything and that run remotely quickly, etc...

I'd bump this up to `should have`. The power of a monorepo is being able to modify a lib that is used by everyone in the company, and have all of the dependencies recursively tested. Global search is required, but until you're big, ripgrep will probably be fine (and after that you just dump it into elasticsearch).
