Yeah, they basically torture rats to test antidepressants. It's really upsetting.
I doubt I'd hit the bug described, but when I do a "clean install" I often create an encrypted sparse disk image onto a network volume and a copy on the Desktop of my new install. Unrelated, I do my bootable backup as a "smart backup" (only copy changes) to a usb-disk. I can see myself doing that to a sparse image on the network.

As I set up my new computer I'll move stuff or delete things out of the sparse disk image from my Desktop, then periodically reclaim space.

I only do this every 5+ years or so. I haven't done this with APFS, yet either. But those are a few of my use cases that dd wouldn't cover.
It's correct and incorrect at the same time. Social networks like cars, they give value when it's being used. To sell ads social networks must be sure that someone scrolling feeds. No usage - no gains.

Even with huge amount of users data nothing guaranteed. You can't sell same stuff periodically, big data has value only when they are actual.
Agreed with most of these points, but FEC / sharding / storing should be handled at a different layer.
Fundamentalists vs. The New York Times
Anecdotally, I've encountered more Indian men than women in IT in USA. I'd guess that men emigrate more than women (and women who emigrate tend to come with their spouse), but I don't know for sure.
I upgraded my hackintosh to High Sierra with APFS. The next day, I accidentally switched off the machine while it was in the _process_ of shutting down (the screen had gone blank, but casing still emitting lights).

Next time I turned it on, I couldn't get past login screen (giving me forever beach ball).

I put the ssd inside my old MBP as slave to recover data.

The ssd was corrupted, most data gone, as in shown in Finder but couldn't be copied.

I googled for solutions, but it seems I'm the first to experience this.
Literally nobody who's in the target audience for the iMac Pro (photographers, video editors, professional musicians, etc.) would ever consider using a hackintosh. If your paycheck depends on your tech, you want stability and supportability.
Hey,
Did you use any online material to help you build a successful stable hackintosh, as I want to try build one if it's straight forward
You might be noticing the eternal September effect, which is sadly starting to affect HN.
> Isn't the correct behavior when an application goes past resource limits to crash the app?

Maybe, or maybe it would be better to exponentially decrease CPU time awarded to a tab over time. And ask the user to confirm that this tab should be allowed to do CPU / memory intensive computations, and otherwise reduce the frame rate, number of ticks, or crash early.

Maybe, big memory allocations and CPU intensive stuff should only be allowed on background workers. And even then, we should still reduce resource allocations to save battery, etc. and allow users to award more resources.

> He means crash the single web page doing the loop... how would you fix this?

It used to be that you could bring my entire system to halt by allocating too much memory in the browser (mostly chrome). Mostly due to swapping and just plain bad system configuration I suspect :)
> Ah yes, the world without "shitty jobs" utopia. "Shitty" as compared to what? Who should do those jobs? Robots?

For the life of me I can't figure out how this argument would be different if we were talking about actual slaves rather than terrible jobs. If we decide that labor standards are shitty, we dictate that wages be raised, that children not work, that machines be as safe as possible, etc.
Agreed, though we will all need to pray that GPU costs come down - I saw 1080s on Amazon going for $1400 the other day, granted it was just a spot check and I’m sure it’s cheaper elsewhere.
What's the difference between query and transformation then? Isn't transformation a (vector) function ^f of input ^x, with n dimensions of x and m dimensions of f where f_i = f_i(x_1, ... x_n)?
How to actually archive images:

1. Convert to png

2. Save image on multiple storage mediums
Honestly, it's the first Mac OS release I'd actively recommend avoiding upgrading to. It offers essentially no benefits over the prior release, and a whole lot of downsides. (Security issues notwithstanding, High Sierra also drops compatibility for a lot of older software.)
OK, but aren't those just as readily reversible as checks? I've read that banks readily reverse even cashier's checks. Which was the basis of a common Craigslist scam. Maybe it's just the Zelle doesn't care to be bothered.
Long overdue unfortunately. I have a trashcan, a cube, a mini, a plus, laptops... I like MacOS, but I wish they would have build modular computers earlier.
No one is saying programming with Punch cards isn't programming. They are saying that transcribing paper into punchcards and running them through the computer isn't programming, any more than typing in code is programming. Someone who writes code that they or others put into the machine, is programming
Really? Then list which five you're referring to.
Have you tried SmartOS as a desktop by chance? I’d love to use SmartOS for my workstation but am currently using Ubuntu with ZoL because I doubted the level of GPU support on SmartOS.
I agree with Peter Thiel’s observations about allowing monopolists to reap the rewards of their innovation. And almost no-one (ok, Elon, I heard that cough) has innovated as much as Amazon in the last decade.

That said, banning chromecast etc is a dangerous precedent and I’d like to see Bezos apologise for that. It’s an unusually shortsighted move that does not fit at all for me.

If you’re going to attack a tech giant for being rubbish and monopolistic, Facebook is right there doing very little other than milking ads, acting irresponsibly, and burning a whole lot of time out of the economy.
Actually, I'm suggesting that their behavior dominating new business lines for software applications be examined. It's not only infrastructure, although infrastructure is where they started out. They shouldn't be required to do anything, certainly not contribute to open-source. But they are in a position, or will be soon, to abuse antitrust laws by leveraging their dominance of the public cloud. Should that be regulated? Yes. The laws exist and just need to be enforced.
Wait, why would the 50 GB need to be transferred fully every time if it was a fixed size image?
> You can likely get an antidepressant effect out of Esketamine in the same way that you can get an antidepressant effect out of psychdelics like LSD-25 & Psilocin.

LSD and magic mushrooms modulate serotonin, so the antidepressant effects that those drugs might have is easily explained. What isn't/wasn't so easily explained is why Ketamine specifically has long-lasting antidepressant qualities when it isn't serotogenic. The article mentions effects Ketamine has on the lateral habenula, which if targeted in the same was that Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) do could lead to a class of antidepressants which are completely orthogonal to our current approach. This would be extremely valuable because depression is a fatal disease and frequently poorly treated.

Which was a bug in Disk Utility, not APFS.
Apple is forcing devs to support their customers. I wish more companies were like Apple.
As it happens, adult American lobsters have few predators other than man. They're big, well-armored, have immensely powerful claws and live in deep burrows. Juvenile lobsters are vulnerable to ground fish, but an adult lobster is only likely to be eaten by brave seals and humans.
To add to your list, I recently saw an HN submission where a PhD student made a markdown-derivative with some explorable features, not sure what it was called though.
While these acts are authorized by one country (through this letter of marque) it would still be considered piracy by other nations, especially the victims.
But lobsters are so much tastier than tofu. :-(
This isn't politics.

People can have opinions without them needing to be flagged as having hidden agendas. And I have worked at Apple and can assure you that there isn't some payment structure for posting on forums.
Ulbricht's trial seemed like a show trial to me. He may actually have done what the government alleges, but the weird, unlikey presence of 2 federal agents performing their own crimes with Silk Road's assets calls the whole thing into question. Reasonable doubt, and all that, eh?

Why everyone thinks that programmers are idiots and for teaching them math one needs a dumb down explanation with a shitty piece of python code example?
Hahahaha this is too stupid. How can these be less cruel?

"Two methods are recommended: Electrocution or sedating the lobster by dipping it into salt water and then thrusting a knife into its brain."

Maybe the lobster actually feels a litle pleasure on the boiling water before going main-dish, like you reader on a jacuzzi, having an exoskeleton and all sure helps.

Stupid laws. Better fix that corrupted banking system first.
Are you sure the disk wasn't encrypted ?

And given you are running on a Hackintosh there isn't much anyone can do given the unsupported hardware.

The article argues the case that yes, we should.

You are deeply misinformed. At PhD level, Bio and Agro are gender balanced. CS is 95% male. Math and Engineering are about 70% male.

What if those two billion accounts are bullshit?

Has anyone actually done a sample of Facebook users (or humans) to check those stats? I do not believe them, based on my personal experience and the very large number of businesses and bots on facebook.

Given the massive incentive for Facebook to lie, we’d be naive to take their numbers for granted.

If they provided really fine-grained data, we could easily verify their claims. We pick cities, they give numbers, we survey to confirm, then extrapolate.

Anyone got any data?
Sigh I wish you weren’t wrong but sadly you are. We demolished both of our closed buildings because the cost of not doing so (fucking transients are not free, land owners somewhere are paying for them) is higher than the cost of just demolishing the building.

At this point, saying crypto will go to zero is like saying the internet will go to zero, meaning no one will use it. Yes, crypto can drop wildly but the only way they go to zero is if the energy they use for mining stops. Government intervention is not a threat since there are countries that are actively supporting it. The network effect is hard to overcome. Bitcoin and Ethereum are two that will weather just about everything. Also, both bitcoin and ethereum are development platforms which gives them staying power. The price might collapse but they will be around as long as people are willing to join the network to mine it and use it.
Quite a few non-Apple network devices support Time Machine.

I back up every day to my Synology NAS for example.
True enough, for now. It seems climate change has created a lobster population boom, though (they love the warmer water), so I would say it's only a matter of time before evolution takes notice of this "free lunch" and adapts some of the neighbouring predators to better get at them.
There are people who have averse reactions to almost every plant based food, and can largely only eat meat or suffer horrible mental and physical health problems.

Diet is not one-size-fits all, and we have basically no idea how complex diet is, or the specific long term effects of most dietary interventions on people. It is absolutely reprehensible to represent going vegan as an obvious way forward when it is unclear that it's even safe for a large majority of people.
> The "legal in the EU" part distracts from the true injustice of this kind of activity being criminalized.

It also creates unnecessary confusion since it implies an American was jailed in Europe for something that's legal in Europe. For the reason you give - countries have different laws - there's no reason to mention Europe otherwise.

> You can be convicted in most EU states [...] for getting an abortion.

I'd love to know where you got this from.
Strange. Ketamine alone is so insanely dark and boooring. When in combo with LSD it's a lot more enlightening. The researchers should try just that
Some of the upgrades to High Sierra in my company failed and left the laptop unbootable. Unfortunately, I wasn't involved in the repair so I only have been told it was due to the APFS conversion and that the solution was to wipe and install.
Should have paid Oracle and just put ZFS on OS X.
Historically people used to dismantle buildings quite frequently in order to reuse the building materials. Stone from the abandoned building on the other side of town is just as good as stone from the quarry 200 miles away.
Yay for the real world!

I recently deleted almost all my accounts online, i.e. Github, LinkedIn, Twitter. I only have this account left and few others which are for learning purposes. I don't know for certain why, but I feel this need to be empty in a sort of way and do away with the non-essentials: digitally, physically, and internally, i.e. use the terminal instead of an ide, use technological devices less and do more natural things, and stop interpreting things, respectively.

Though then again, I hope my nonexistent online presence is not a negative to future employers as I complete my bachelor's in a few years. It seems if you want to work for company x, you should be using product x. That's probably not the case but it does seem like it.
* Google refuses to support Amazon Prime Video on Chromecast.

There's nothing really "anti-competitive" going on here. Two consumer tech giants are refusing to support each others' stuff. That's it. Consumers are free to pick one, or both!
I find that HN discussion are the most relevant, least trolled discussions of most well-known sites. However, I am biased because my exposure to comments and discussions is mostly HN, some reddit, WSJ/NYTimes comments, and the notorious YouTube comment sections.
That can happen, but it's not the only thing that can happen. Look, for example, at the way Toyota easily beat American carmakers for decades.

"Respect for People" was at the core of the Toyota Production System, and by that they meant both workers and customers. Their extensive investment in workers let them create better products for less money. Their refusal to lay people off cost them in the short term, but gained them substantial competitive advantage in the long term.

This only becomes more true the more we automate things. If machines are doing the dumb stuff, that only leaves smart stuff. And unhappy, underpaid people don't do smart stuff very well.

For those interested in how a different philosophy can lead to a deep competitive advantage, check out the This American Life episode on NUMMI: https://www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/561/...
> For the rest, if we aren't eating them, something else is going to eat them. It's not a question of "taking an animal life"—the animal's life is going to get taken, in a messy, bloody, terrifying way.

Not necessarily, the amount of ocean inhabitants people consume surely tops what would be taken naturally. I don't see how getting scooped from the ocean, hauled in trucks in small boxes, than kept alive in some aquarium beats living in ocean until any kind of death.
Can you even test a filesystem properly internally?

Having sex without the intent to procreate can lead to having children whom you aren't prepared to take care of. Tourism fuels and is fueled by organizations that destroy ecosystems.

Everything humanity does destroys the planet and its inhabitants, including ourselves. A vegan thinks they're doing their small part, while texting up a storm on their iPhone, driving to work in their Camry, living in their downtown 1000 sqft apartment. Thinking your diet of all things makes the animals we share this place with feel any better is about as facetious as thinking a band-aid would help a man who just went headfirst into a woodchipper. You could go completely offgrid, live off the land, maximizing everything you can do to help this problem, and you wouldn't even begin to put a dent into it.

But if it helps you sleep at night, then by all means. At least you've some semblance of peace, which is more than most people on this planet have.

Considering suffering alone seems like it could justify some counterintuitive conclusions. Would it be wrong to have a child, raise it happily to adolescence, and then give it a painless, instant death? If so, why?
> People were reading news in FB feed and didn't even think it can be fake, now they read and go "outside" for fact checking.

You know this is an interesting topic in and of itself. Are people looking outside FB for news? I would argue that if FB supports your world view that people aren't looking outside of it. Others have had the same theory:

http://lesswrong.com/lw/lr/evaporative_cooling_of_group_beli...

The reality is that the internet provides a platform to even the most marginal ideas, time cubes, flat earths, and lots of rather stupid ideas that have no basis in logic or reason. If these things appeal to you seeing them in print and on video will only bolster ones false reasoning and allow you to further push out other points of view.

I'm just transferring rumors, but I've read multiple times that Amazon reacted this way after Google blocked YouTube access to Amazon's Echo Show and Fire TV.

Seems like it's a back and forth kind of a thing between the two companies, with users being the ones facing consequences.
The very first backup of a fixed size image will be the full size of the image, e.g. 50 GB, no matter which backup software you use. Even if inside the image no files exist. The very first backup of a sparse bundle disk image will be ~100 MB (the initial size of that image).

On repeated backups, some backup softwares operate on file level and upload the whole file if it changed. So if you have a fixed size 50 GB image, mount it, add a file, unmount it, it changed, and the whole 50 GB image file has to be uploaded (with some backup softwares).
Not to downplay the importance of this, but it reads as clickbait that you wait until the second paragraph to say "oh yeah, it's only sparsebundles. Just those things that almost nobody uses."
The graph in the article linked by the OP plots the number of women majoring in computer science (and another three fields). Unless "computer science" meant something radically different in the '70s and early '80s than it does today, or secretaries' roles included coding algorithms and data structures in PDP assembly, then no, those were not secretaries, but computer scientists.

...So not an actual Apple Product.
I don't know why people keep getting this wrong, but AMP does not introduce proprietary browser extensions or syntax. It's a custom element framework, not much different than say, React and JSX, or Vue, Ember, or tools such as LESS/SASS.

In fact, its even more 'webby' than those because at least some browsers don't need polyfills for Web Components, and the declarative nature is more transparent than a virtual dom app with embedded data. Web Components was created so that browsers could use custom elements, like say <pay-with-bitcoin-button/> or <x-video codec="daala" src="foo.daala"/> AMPHTML is an implementation of that.

Everyday like clockwork, new frameworks appear on HN that introduce yet another way to create web content that eschews the vanilla approach, AMP is about as close to vanilla as you can get.

There's a separate issue if your concern is Google SERP giving preference to AMP or the way it is being rendered in a carousel, but that's a political argument around the deployment, it's not a technical argument against having a simple subset that unsophisticated developers can use to create fast loading apps, like Twitter bootstrap helped many devs create proper HTML5 content.

Otherwise common inaccurate statements are that AMP Cache is Google-only, when in fact, it's a spec others can implement, and CloudFlare already provides a competing implementation.

I get why people have legitimate gripes over AMP: URL/bookmarking/canonical linking behavior, scrolling behavior on Safari, the way its rendered in Google.com, perceptions that if you create a fast site that is AMP-like, but doesn't use AMP, you don't know how it's going to be scored, etc. I think those are all legitimate concerns, but the hyperbole over the syntax seems very misplaced: AMP isn't Flash or ActiveX, it runs on open web browsers without modification on top of standard specs.

Over and over again, people say "but you don't need AMP, you can make fast mobile sites by hand!" That's like saying "You don't need Web frameworks, you can make great apps with VanillaJS and HTML", the only problem is, history has shown that most web developers can't, and absent some framework codifying good behaviors, badness accumulates overtime until things get so bad that users turn away from the web altogether to native apps. You'll find years later complaining about how Apple News killed the mobile web and why you're forced to get your content approved by gated native News apps, because of overly optimistic beliefs that the wild wild west of news publisher web jockeys would all create optimal, consistent mobile browser experiences without assistance or any industry effort to standardize some best practices.
