developers grouse about the other browser makers who are “holding the web back.”

Indeed, perhaps "holding the web back" is a good thing if it means websites will be more accessible overall, to even less common browsers like NetSurf, Dillo, and all the other text-based ones. IMHO the "feature war/race" between the major browser vendors has had an overall negative effect, as if all sites somehow need to turn into ridiculously bloated web apps instead of the simple and far more accessible hyperlinked collection of pages they once were. Keeping the browser choices diverse is a good thing, even if it means they will all display things slightly differently --- just find the lowest-common-denominator and emphasise the content, the stuff that people visiting sites really care about.

> Accomplishing difficult things from a disadvantaged position is more impressive than those accomplished by someone without those disadvantages, but it doesn't mean the latter accomplishments are not impressive.

It means it gets lost like tears in the rain. At one point, one gets bored by the accomplishments and its about outliers within the winners. That's how an overstimulation of signal tends to work out.

> The world is full of people who want to tear down other peoples accomplishments - "Accomplishment X isn't that impressive because of starving people in country Y." Using that standard, nothing done by anyone who "won the ovarian lottery" by being born in a 1st world country would qualify as "impressive".

I'm arguing these [of the Winklevoss] are no accomplishments; they're expected. If something's expected of you, how is it an accomplishment if you reach that goal? You'd only be disappointed when you wouldn't reach the goal.

> When faced with a beautiful sunset, you can say "Meh, I'm not impressed. The sunsets in Hawaii are much better." or you can appreciate the beautiful sunset for what it is. The latter approach is happier path in life I think.

Moot comparison. At one point in your life, you've seen so many sunsets that it becomes pointless to care about them. You focus on different things, or on one of those sunsets which has something special. Such as that one time in Hawaii. Keeping caring about things which don't move you, seems like a one way ticket to endless depression.

Although everyone's free to enjoy sunsets, and I have no intention to take that liberty away from one, I am equally free to describe they're not that beautiful.
Again, this is just Apple suing but we never know the outcome in court.

At the end of the day, both Microsoft and Apple reused ideas they found at Xerox. To quote Bill Gates himself about the situation:

"Well, Steve, I think there's more than one way of looking at it. I think it's more like we both had this rich neighbor named Xerox and I broke into his house to steal the TV set and found out that you had already stolen it."
Ask HN: How do you use npm/yarn as a team without an internet connection?
I read both, and couldn't find any verbiage indicating they limited the cpu speed based upon the condition of the battery. Only that they "fixed a bug" to reduce "unexpected shutdowns."
It IS a good idea. My step mom had a high end Samsung phone (not sure exactly which one) and it’s battery degraded enough within a year that it began to shut down randomly a lot.

How come that the MASSIVE slowdown of my iPhone 6s occurred after upgrading to iOS11? TBH the spin that Apple is sending out to make us believe that this was all a clever implementation (which it still might be) does not match with the reality that iOS 11 was creating the slowdown of a device that was working 'fine' before. And yes - this 6s is eligible for the battery replacement program and the Geekbench scores also indicate that this device has an issue. tl;dr: it seems that this is not the only explanation of the slowdown. Any thoughts?
We do monitor too. We made a Master-Worker architecture which scales according to the data traffic. (Talked abt it in Velocity Conf. London this year)

One way is we monitor the Ansible tasks which make this happen. Apart from that, there is no way we can do it.

+ trying to make it happen by using something like a Prometheus+Grafana server would defeat the entire purpose of going serverless
The DC metro, as other commenters said, has its own problems of delayed maintenance. A larger problem is its limited coverage. The time to build subways was when New York did, and it was less expensive. But then Washington had many fewer people and its suburbs were not particularly extensive.
Well,this is surprising. Paper doesn't mention image recognotion and voice recognition at all. Is this because they are not interesting for new research or because in theese applications results were worse than that of gradient methods?
Lest we forget:

A third party company (funded by venture capital) created something called "Pocket", which allowed you to save any article you were reading to their service. Pocket had an extension that you could choose to download & enable on your Firefox browser.

For apparently no reason at all, in June 2015, Mozilla integrated the proprietary Pocket into their open source browser, not just as an optional extension but as part of the default installation. The only way to disable Pocket was to go into "about:config", as the option was not available in the "Extensions" toolbar. (Later, Mozilla Corporation purchased the company Pocket, though at the time Pocket was introduced as an inextricable part of Firefox, Pocket was a separate company.)

The Mr. Robot addon had some similarities with the Pocket fiasco:

1. it was pushed to users without their knowledge or consent

2. it was integration of a plugin for a private company into an open-source project

3. it was a decision by marketing, and not development

I am not quite sure how or when we can begin to trust Mozilla Firefox, and what they would need to do to regain that trust.
"There are languages people complain about, and languages nobody use." - Bjarne Stroutup.

I don't think C++ will fade away as it's already a well installed language, and it is getting several upgrades, which are supported by big companies.

There is really nothing comparable to C++ in terms of language, to be really honest. There really are no language which are as readable and flexible as C, AND extensible and high level.

I tried to get interested to statically compiled language like rust, go, D, and honestly I can't get used to them. Safety is not really a good idea because putting barriers between the compiler and the programmer will always result in pain. C++ is the ease of C with some syntactic sugar for more convenient use. I see nothing that can be as good as C in term of down-to-earth syntax.

A good language is not a language that is well designed, a good language is a language everyone can use. C++ to me seems to be the least worse, except of course the toolchain.
Most phones are probably getting recycled now anyways, so it really doesn’t matter. In fact, I would think user serviceability would increase waste because people would throw their old batteries away.

Why should the US government fear bitcoin??

- bitcoin isn't usable as a transactional currency. it costs $30-40 per transaction. Plus other currencies are gaining steam, and offering other choices for people to transact

- bitcoin isn't rare to be a store of value.....everyday there's a new viable cryptocurrency springing up

- bitcoin isn't safer than dollar.....it can drop 90% in any day; no official entity is going to prop it up and make sure it doesn't crash. it can be banned by countries (and has been by a few)

- bitcoin isn't easy than square cash or wires.....it can take several weeks to send money. plus the transaction fees are high
Sure. That's why it's a model. It is used to isolate an element of the factual situation for analysis.

In this case, you concede the point that if what a CEO does causes bad optics, that is potentially fireable. To loop this back to the parent comment, this means sustaining an objection to Eich's firing, you would need to conclude that what Eich did was bad optics.

I hope you recognize that this position is contradictory with your previous statement: "You just shouldn't police beliefs, period."

Maybe, just maybe the batteries should be larger even if the case is slightly thicker.

It is one thing for Apple to compensate for weaknesses of current phones in the field. It would be another story if they plan to do this going forward without telling consumers at the time of sale. Car companies got in trouble over mileage...

UN resolution rejects Trump's declaration
I’ve found a lot of people are quite naively idealistic around browser development. The rendering, JS engines in Firefox and Chrome are state-of-the-art and take small armies to build and maintain. Mozilla has to strike a balance between revenue seeking and consumer protection seeking behavior that I would imagine is quite difficult to maintain.

Lots of people here additionally are up in arms their incredibly specific workflow was upheaveled by a movement to webextensions planned like 2 years in advance. Browser engines don’t have the luxury of being vim and supporting every environment and config.
It's exactly because they don't magically lose CPU speed because of battery issues; people can adjust to failing batteries if the device remains useful (even for phones with fixed batteries, powerbanks exist).

With iPhones, Apple decided to make the device less useful instead.
But how do they display remaining battery life? %? Range in distance?
I really want to believe they have good intentions, but this does smell like a Planned obsolescence to me. I can stand an old battery draining quickly (I just have to make my mind to bring a charger everywhere with me), BUT my phone taking forever to load a simple app is really FRUSTRATING.

"New" features usually are not a motivation for me to buy a new phone, but a slow phone will make me get a new one right away...
As an outsider it makes me feel like Mozilla has a few people at the top capable of bypassing core company values, QA, QC, and lower management, to force whatever releases or products they want. And that these individuals routinely use this power to the detriment of Mozilla and the Internet at large.
> It's not considered faulty, more like degraded over time.

> I rather have shorter battery life with same performance so it's more noticeable that I need to replace the battery.

I agree, but something is odd about this whole situation.

I have an iPhone 6, iPhone 5, iPhone 4, a 2nd generation iPod Touch, and several Android phones.

The iPhone 6 is the first one I've seen randomly turn itself off when the battery level was below 30%, all of the others would run normally even when the battery condition was poor. I could continue using them normally while the battery indicator ticked down to 1%.

While my iPhone 6 no longer randomly turns itself off, it frequently doesn't respond for 15+ seconds when typing a letter on the keyboard or tapping a text field, it's essentially just as unusable as if it had turned itself off.

What makes me suspicious is that I have a 2nd iPhone 6 here at the moment with a similarly aged battery in fairly poor condition. It doesn't randomly turn off, and the performance difference is immediately noticeable, it's actually usable. The only real difference I can identify is that it is still running an older version of iOS.
If it had a switch, the only thing it would do is crash your phone when the CPU utilization spikes.
I do have such a thing, don't be willfully obtuse. Those that you mention are for things that require security for me and my stuff, not to watch TV.
> As you point out - viciously unfair - but better in the long run.

That's your opinion, not fact. Banks are larger than ever. Inequality higher than ever. Housing more expensive than ever. The world is more unstable now than it was in 2008. Your definition of "better in the long run" is quite odd.
Good.

Now add a distinction between IAPs for consumables vs features vs content.

Not a good implementation, this feature should be been far more explicitly stated in some sort of alert rather than buried.

This is something that is burning the good will towards apple. Something that is in shorter supply since the days of Steve Jobs. You can see the polarization about it on social media.

Again whether the feature was good/bad, there is clearly something to be learned from the shitstorm that it is causing. Something I hope Tim Cook learns quickly.
Identifying bubbles is not all that hard; very few bubbles are not widely recognized before they burst, and very few not-bubbles are widely identified as bubbles.

Predicting the timing of a bubble bursting, OTOH, is hard, as is predicting the natural support level they will revert to.after bursting.

If the answer is no, I would kick them out just the same and that's ok.
It’s intended to prevent crashes, not extend battery life. Once the battery degrades, trying to run the CPU at 100% will crash the phone.

I don't really understand this attitude. Mozilla doesn't need to be everything I ever wanted from a browser in order to get my support. It only needs to be better than Google.

I mean, yeah? The Jurassic series has a special place in my heart, the films, by and large, are great monster movies. But they are just that, monster movies.

Trying to say that the dinos are realistic is just crazy. Maybe, kinda, in the first one, they were, a little bit. Even then Jack Horner got a lot of flak from the community over his consultation on the films. But the evidence we have now just points to a much different creature than what we though of even a few years ago. They aren't monsters, just standard terrestrial vertebrates trying to make their way in a different world. We have so much to learn from them, about climate change, about physiology, about adaptation, etc. So trying to keep the monster and the known 'reality' separate is a big deal to me.
This is too sneaky and seems like poor form.

I'm curious what good use-case there is for this, that the language bothered to support and allow this to even compile.

> Five years in, I think my journey has been successful so far. I’m proud of how far Rust has come. That said, there’s a lot more work to do. I’m still committed as ever to getting that work done, (...)

It's good to hear that people behind Rust intent to continue working on Rust. One thing I'm missing, however, is what exactly is considered important to be solved. There are many things how Rust could be made more viable or attractive for a variety of scenarios.

For example, I don't consider it important to be able to compile Rust to JavaScript, because I don't think JavaScript is a good thing.

On the other hand, downstream packaging of Rust and libraries is important. There are scenarios where rustup and cargo are not acceptable. Is this on the radar?

Another issue is target/host support and independent implementations. Rusts only Tier 1 platforms are of the backdoored x86-family. Is this not considered an issue to be solved to make the world a better place?

I don't intent to blame, shame or finger-point anybody, but just point out critical remarks that come to mind.
Oh, oops, didn't scan close enough. But in any case, I don't want to be writing "regular servers", I want to write FaaS functions. Ideally (and hopefully this is where we will end up), against the same interface regardless of provider, but not necessarily e.g. Express's interface.
