Technically, I suspect they could easily make em last 10 years without too many drawbacks. And if you're willing to be a bit more compromising, much more even than that. But why engineer that kind of life expectancy into a device that's going to be hopelessly outdated before then?

But a little more honesty in expected degradation would be nice, including the warranty that if degradation exceeds some minimal specification, the phone will be fixed at the manufacturer's cost, and not just for a year. 10 years may be unnecessarily long, but 1 year is definitely too short; and the level of acceptable degradation is too vague.

There's a lot of hate towards the NFL but the NCAA is an even worse actor on CTE. 70,000 college players every year, and they aren't paid professionals like the NFL. But NCAA programs make billions of dollars off of the players (and their coaches millions). Destroying brains for profit, in the context of the education system, is truly evil.
Anyone who's ever tried to set up a booth at a trade-show will know exactly what this is like.

$900 for renting a TV for 3 days + $450 fee for installing the bracket + $180 for placing a power-strip at your booth.

You're billed $90 for every hour of work, billed at 30m increments.

Order of business:

1. Person comes to look at where you want the TV. Billed $45.

2. Person comes to drop by an extension cord, $45.

3. Person comes to plug the extension cord in, but sees you're not ready to have the TV mounted yet, $45.

4. Lunch break

5. Person comes to hook up the extension cord, $45.

Total bill: $180, for something a kindergartner can do (literally connecting a power cord to the socket that's already in the floor)
> Is there a C++ compiler that doesn't include 'make' and/or a 'make' replacement?

Yes, all of them.

Because 'make' and/or 'make' replacements have absolutely zero to do with a compiler. It is a build automation tool that essentially determines which target needs to be built based on which preceding targets have been altered. This has zero to do with what a compiler does.
They make it cheaper and better don't need to blame them.

This was a perfect opportunity for Apple to come out and explicitly state they have never slowed phones down other than in this instance. That would certainly go a long way to restoring confidence.

Instead they came out with a weasely-worded statement that is designed to give the impression that they only recently starting doing this. But... they don't actually make that claim.

Apple lawyers are very good at what they do. Well played Apple indeed.

It doesn't have the same effect. Blockchain analysis would be able to see right through that.
Well, yeah. But to be honest, I'd rather the performance decline than knowing I have 20% of battery and am waiting for a critical call and then the battery dies.
Garbage trucks still need to make frequent stops compared to most vehicles. I suppose it's possible to make some kind of pickup system that doesn't require stopping, like the mail systems trains used to use. I don't know of any place that does that though. It'd probably get messy pretty easily.

I don't understand these arguments. Are they forcing players to do it? If the players are well aware of health risks and still make decision to play the game, how is the sports organization to blame?
> At that point, to me, neither side has done anything wrong.

Well, tracking my mother who doesn't know enough about ad-blockers or the implications of being tracked is already wrong, to me. Collecting detailed personal information on people for commercial purposes should be strictly regulated, at the very least when it's done automatically.

> That sends the message that you won’t support the model.

We should send the most effective and unambiguous kind of messages: I like that content, but not the ad/tracking that you put on your site. That's much clearer than not visiting the site altogether (they might think they just have to change their content, or their marketing or sth). Some media are not fully aware of the crap they run, because it's run by a third-party, and the decision was made by another department etc. I don't necessarily want to send a bad signal to everyone there.

American inefficiency has been a joke in Germany as far as I can think back.

Also, a recurring theme in what I hear about American customers from people working in manufacturing is that US companies insist on providing extremely detailed specs and strict tolerances but then run into issues because their own (presumably US sourced) parts don't actually match the same specs.
> vilifying content creators who offer ads

Not the OP, but the "brainwashed" angle applies to more than just ads.

Anyone with a Gmail account is effectively selling my communication with them to Google for a free service. And you bet that when told about this very few would see it that way. Consumers _are_ as guillable as they are ignorant. These new "established" online norms - be it tracking, profiling, ads, what have you - would've never flown in their physical form, but here we are in a world where Gmail, WhatsApp, Android phones, Google Analytics, etc. are considered gold standards of modern tech.

No sane person, if explained the exact ramifications of these "free services", would've agreed to any of them just 15 years ago. But they do now, giddily at that. Pray tell how this is anything but a brainwashing.
EDIT: I should probably sleep more.
Hopefully this will not morph into another recruiting mantra like it went with bullshit interview questions.
> Context-neutral speed, strength, power metrics

But if you choose these traits then naturally it's going to benefit those athletes who compete in sports where it's more beneficial to get.. big..

That's like saying tennis/table tennis/badminton players are all mediocre athletes because they aren't able to lift as much weight even though it isn't as beneficial or is even potentially harmful to be very heavy in those sports but of course any serious athlete is going to optimize their training for their sport.
To avoid confusion: It's not the Minecraft voxel engine, it's an independent voxel engine which can be used to create Minecraft-like games. The engine itself is written in C++ and its game API is mostly in Lua. This API is also the modding API, so you can really change up essentially all content with mods. And technically, games created with it are essentially just modpacks.

There's also a reference implementation, which you can download and play without getting into programming. It doesn't have all too much content by itself, but you can extend it with mods or use it to connect to multiplayer servers which can have their own collection of mods (sort of Modpack-as-a-Service).

So, you should also quite easily find a multiplayer server which has some form of currency and economy.

Why would the NFL fund this? Then they might actually find the CTE, in people who were still alive to sue. They know that success means the end of their sport in its current form. This is like asking why the cigarette industry doesn't fund cancer research.

95% of the people playing contact football are minor children. The NFL and NCAA, and their equipment partners, underwrite and promote the youth sport but do little to mitigate the brain injury issue...frankly it is unethical to permit under-18 kids to play contact football.
What do you mean Incorrect?

>> but you need to identify the problem first

Apparently apple had identified the problem first and they choose to put non user-replaceable batteries.

Plus why does my 4 years old Oppo android phone is not suffering from this battery issue ? Does apple use inferior batteries ?
Because the NFL could "easily" change the rules to minimize the effects of CTE. Easily is in quotes because it's easy except for a fear of losing money.
Why not use that information to see whether there is a better place for her in your company? Ultimately it's in your (the company's) best interest to keep smart people around, and the transversal skills obtained from forming an engineer in business practices can be extremely valuable.

I agree with your statement on informality - there is a very thin line that's right inbetween boring formality and obnoxious casualness and it takes some time to learn how to walk it, but I don't think your engineer's words are that bad. A good manager (even N+2) should have some idea of the career aspirations of their employees, and your employee sounds like she'd rather be moved to a different position with less computer science stuff than be promoted for more of the same thing.
This is my question too. Plus the development seems is stuck. The latest release is from 2015.

I take from this that you're happy for sites to then use these anti-ad-blocker scripts to deny access to users that won't view the ads? I certainly think that's a more honest approach than using them to get around the blockers to display ads anyway, but it's probably less popular.
For crypto-crypto exchanges you can use trustless atomic swaps. For crypto-fiat just use a reputable exchange that operates in your local jurisdiction.
This would be like a study that found that height was completely uncorrelated with performance in the NBA. Doesn't mean that height is irrelevant in basketball, only that selection bias is in full effect and that we're not looking at a 'normal' population with respect to height. Same IMO with respect to google and engineering skill.

It really depends on where you stand on the freedom vs society protection debate.

Some think that society should protect vulnerable individuals (in this case, mostly poor people that see in football a way to get well-off/rich) from predatory organizations (in this case, a monopolistic organization that has proven to have no regard for the health of its workers).

Notice that most people aren't asking for a ban of the sport - just some rule changes to minimize the health risks.
I did some reading into project Oxygen. From what I could tell it set out to find the most important qualities for managers at google, which made the results much less surprising. I would love to find more info on this either way.
>If you really hate them so much (I mean, you’re fine with them going out of business so at least, you don’t love them or rely on them) why even make the request?

Because you like the content?

If it's genuinely decent content it should encourage the middleman who owns the delivery system to look for more honest and up front sources of income. If it's crap, bottom feeder content then it's no great loss if adblockers drive it out of business is it?
> In a healthy society this sport would be forbidden by law.

Give me a break.

Are we going to ban football at home, too? Or just at school? What about community leagues?

In a healthy society, the dangers would be well-known, minors would always have a right to refuse and forcing a minor to play would be considered child abuse, and children would have to be old enough to form rational opinions before being eligible for leagues or scholastic play.

It is not the role of law to keep people from being able to do dangerous things. Law exists to keep people safe from others, and to keep people from being a danger themselves, but not from being a danger to themselves. Consciously choosing dangerous behavior in exchange for some reward is an inalienable human right.

Such a draconian law has no place in a healthy society.
It is indeed a Jason Rohrer game.

> My experience has been that upgrading the OS results in degraded performance 100% of the time.

I have the same experience on Android. Of course I rarely received OS updates, but even that's better than Google making the device practically unusable.

Be it a marketing ploy, a conscious decision trying to protect me, or just a mistake, I don't care. It's bad.
I don't see the VC money and avoiding regulation to be essential parts of the business though. I very rarely take a cab, and am not price sensitive. I tried Lyft, albeit not Uber, and like people repeatedly say, the good things about it are (a) you get fast response and a direct way to contact the driver, (b) you see how close they are to you on a moving map, (c) you get an up front estimate, and (d) they don't demand cash. While it might slow them down if they weren't subsidizing drivers, or drivers weren't subsidizing them, it wouldn't change the fact that the things they do are actually worth more than a regular cab, so they could charge more and not less, as far as I'm concerned.

If Uber and Lyft are "just taxi companies" then why don't all the other taxi companies just make a similar app and then promote the idea their upstart competitors are regulation-avoiding scum? It ought to be more effective than ignoring why people use them.
If you are explicitly not consenting, then surely the correct way to do this is to not visit the site. If I go to a shop and want a product but don't like the price I am within my rights to refuse the contract and not buy the item. What I am not entitled to do is unilaterally change the contract, and walk out with the item without paying full price. I use an ad blocker because so many sites are barely usable without it, but I don't pretend it's a morally justifiable thing to do, and I try to disable it for sites that I use a lot, unless I pay for them.
One thing is not buying into the marketplace. Use free apps, use web services, use a home server.

I made a single app purchase in the last 5 years so I don't feel too locked-in, at least other than habit.

I learned a similar lesson when I was working on a product around two years back. I used to extrapolate current trends and predict why my idea could be important in the future. While those predictions sounded good in theory, in reality, it was just me trying to paint my assumptions as facts. None of what I predicted happened.

When you are working on any idea, there's a temptation to be a visionary about your product's impact. But nothing good comes out of this feel-good bullshit. It's better to focus on solving meaningful problems that exist today, rather than being hopeful that they will become relevant tomorrow.

Not exactly an adblocker, but on your local network you could use pi-hole.
Your premise is wrong. It sounds as if it should be right, but the framing is awry

The players are not really aware of the health risks, furthermore they are young and foolish and impressionable and are following the path of glamour which has been sold to them as youngsters.

The sports organization is aware of the risks and are using the players to make vast sums for themselves, they are pushing the glamourous path and they are not supporting the discarded players. They are ignoring the debt to society incurred generating their profit and that is not good unless you think that their tax payments should cover it (do they? I don't know..)
TLDR: sales decrease in paper for printing & writing more than being offset by Amazon effect (packaging; food and drink too) & tissue.
Looks nice. I think "We know you was looking for" has a typo.
>these studies have implications for head contact that occurs in other sports and in general.

Football is clearly the worst offender, but at the high school level the rate of concussions really isn't that far behind for hockey, lacrosse, soccer, wrestling, and basketball. Even a complete non-contact sport like baseball has a concussion rate that is 10% of football's rate. So the question isn't really what percentage of American children play football, it is what percentage play any sport and how can these sports be changed to increase safety.
And maybe you should stop trying?

As the other commenter wrote: work is for work. It is not a place for your personal issues. It's almost as if our language even has different words: friend vs. colleague.

If colleagues become friends, that's fine. However, if you only want to work with friends, that is unprofessional.

And of course, the whole "we're not a company, we're a family" BS is just a ruse to get you to put in extra time for free. If you're lucky.

If you're unlucky, they are actually so delusional as to think they mean it. They cannot actually mean it, because a company is fundamentally different from a family, and when push comes to shove, that nature will assert itself and many a tear will be shed as the illusion pops.

My iPhone 6 was snappy, then ios 11 came along and now it's not. Also, it's not the battery - I smashed the screen and they replaced the phone in April. It's just classic Apple: programming for the latest CPUs and damn the rest. As an example, siri used to load instantly when I held down the home button, on ios 11 it takes 5 seconds.
Have you tried bitwarden? It's open source and self-hostable and I definitely prefer it over lastpass.
It really can't. There are many potential smaller changes that could shave a percentage point or two of the risk factor (and the NFL has already made a handful of those type of changes), but the game of football is setup in such a way that head trauma is a guaranteed byproduct. As other pointed out, the cigarette argument is apt. You can make things marginally safer, but there is never going to be such a thing as a "safe cigarette".
