Are you talking about my excluding murder and human trafficking from the definition of "prohibition"? That's not a "No True Scotsman" fallacy. They're illegal, but it's disingenuous to say laws against them are tantamount to legal prohibition a la alcohol. Look at the Wikipedia article got prohibitionism [1]: literally every example is of a victimless crime, which murder and human trafficking clearly are not.

I also think prolog has the most advanced sense of this concept with equalities and unification operators.
Yeah... I understood the analogy but I just think it's inaccurate because Apple doesn't have that policy out of some kind of nefarious reasons. They do it that way because micro soldering repairs in-store would take far long and are probably not worth the effort. A customer would much rather get their phone or computer swapped out or repaired in 20 minutes than have to leave it for days on end while it's re-soldered and individual components are on order. Since Apple can do that all off-site, there's not really a benefit. The comment about waste isn't correct either since Apple recycles most of that stuff.

> 1. Most web "apps" actually only work on Chrome, so there's that. So much for the open, standardized web.

This is completely anecdotal, so I'll volunteer my own anecdote: I've used Firefox for years and basically never run into issues. Sometimes a website will say "We don't support your browser", but if you change your user agent it works fine.

> 2. Most web apps track the heck out of everything you do.

So installing a native app with even MORE access to what you do is a better solution? How about Uber tracking you after you get out of your cab? To suggest this is a "web app" problem is false.

> 4. Most web apps are like Juicero, expensive solutions to non existent problems.

Haha, you are SO RIGHT about this one! One of my smell-tests for a web-app is: "Could your website be reasonably replaced with a spreadsheet?"

It's funny because I LOVE spreadsheets, and simply using a spreadsheet is better 99% of the time.
I repeat, I don’t know that I’ve been in a town in the us over 100k people where you can’t find that.

I was just able to see the effect for the first time using this image [1] full screen on my phone :) Brightness up, screen rotation off, hold out the phone and turn it like your steering a car. Jumped right out at me. It's always at the center of my vision, so if I look around the screen as I'm turning, it follows. The yellow always points to the longer edges of my phone. It's hard to hold it in view when not turning though.

Do you have a way to ensure you get the highest quality?

I do similar with cron but often get videos as they're still processing (and thus only at lower qualities). One issue is the channels I 'subscribe' to don't always output at the same resolution and frame rate.. so I can't do a simple 'is video 4k60' test.
It’s very thick, and the best of it is a mix of cow and sheep/goat milk. When I lived and worked in Cambridge, MA in the US I used to go to a local shop with the finest yogurt I’ve had outside of Greece (I miss it!). A shop called Sophia’s, run by you guessed it, Sophia, and they made their own yogurt. It’s thick, as in you can hardly shake it off a spoon thick, and very tangy. Compared to something like Fage, it’s less of a “gel” and more thick, and Fage tastes bland by comparison.

With honey, it’s the best thing in the world. Actually it’s still there according to the site, and according to the site it is strained.

Those are pretty basic functions that Apple just locks you into. iOS would not have to be open source for those things to change… At all.
>Apple insists that they should be the sole arbiter of who is and isn't allowed to do that

This is entirely inaccurate. They just want there to be a clear distinction between Apple service and third-party service.

To use your Subaru analogy, it would be like Subaru making parts for your car and no other third-party manufacturer making them. You wouldn't have a choice but to buy from Subaru. Subaru isn't stopping anyone from reverse-engineering those parts or simply making their own parts that are compatible but it doesn't make sense that Subaru would have to be forced to provide instructions on how to do it. Anyone that's ever taken their car to a mechanic and gotten screwed should be able to relate to what Apple's goals are here. They're not preventing anyone from doing anything but there sure as hell do want to know that the people they've authorized for repairs are doing them to their standards. If someone's iPhone is all fucked up, other people don't know that they got it repaired at some janky kiosk. They just see an iPhone having issues. That devalues and severely harms a brand and company.

Tip 2: Show the same episodes of the same major cartoons in three or four languages so your kid gets the sense of multiple languages without the need for constant environmental stimulation.

With DragonFly's architecture being designed with multiprocessing and clustering in mind, how does it fare (relative to Linux and other BSDs) in modern environments with many-core CPUs, horizontally-scalable architectures, reliance on VM-based workloads, and containerization?

I would think it would really shine, but haven't seen comparisons - or much market uptake.

Wouldn't significant advantages result in lower costs (e.g., fewer CPUs needed because of higher performance per core due to lower OS overhead) and therefore economics would drive greater use? If it hasn't, why not?

All these discussions of "=" are missing the point.

The notation "x = x + 1" is awful because at lhs x denotes a reference to an integer while at rhs x denotes the value hold by the reference. If you know C, it is similar to the difference between an integer pointer *x and an integer x. As an illustration, here are two programs that are doing the same thing, one in C and one in Haskell.

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
int x = 0;
x = x + 1;
printf("%d\n", x);
return 0;
}

import Data.IORef

main = do
xref <- newIORef 0

The only time devices have ever been bricked for unauthorized repairs is for screen repairs where the chain of trust for Touch ID couldn't be verified. It wasn't intentional and they reverted with a patch within weeks.

Ok here’s what I got:

A long time ago people died in a fire at Cornell. It was probably arson. They never figured out who did it.

Later, some guy got obsessed with figuring it out, and thinks he’s got it. This other guy seems real suspicious. But there’s no proof.

So the reporter went to talk to the suspicious guy, and he didn’t want to talk about the fire.

So I guess we’ll never know.
They used to come with service manuals because they were a collection of simple mechanical parts. Devices nowadays are far more complicated and intricate than the types of things you're referring to.
It is a dick measuring contest to a degree. Google is large enough to be effectively a monopoly, and so can think of these laws as being targeted at them.

Steve revealed at D10 that the iPad actually did get prototyped first. IIRC, he tasked a team with creating a keyless keyboard tablet thing (forgive my terrible paraphrasing). They came back with a tablet. When Steve scrolled up and saw the rubber band effect, he said "oh my god we can make a phone with this" and they went the phone first.

Edit: Below is the interview. He "had an idea of being able to type on a multi touch glass display"

How so? Apple isn't stopping anyone from being able to try and fix something that they own. The only action they've taken is against companies claiming that they're an Apple authorized repair center when they're not.
I noticed this recently when I was trying to define a note-taking syntax for my math classes. I thought it would be smart to use := for definitions and = for equality, but then I was frustrated when = didn't always mean equals in the same way, and some things didn't really fit into either category. I ended up just giving up and switching back to abusing = in all situations. I think math has a really cool human aspect, it's very rigorous but also relies on the fact that your notes/proofs/whatevers are going to be read by a person.

This is blatantly false. Please link 1 instance where Apple sued a mom-and-pop repair shop for anything other than they were claiming they were an authorized repair center or used genuine parts and didn't.
This is not a slippery slope argument. Situation where the only thing protecting you from unreasonable law is selective enforcement is already bad, no further sliding down the slope needed.
Except that it won't. All the news portals/aggregators will simply move out of the EU.

Why do you say its "best" usecase is for the server? I'm actually asking, not disputing, but I'm asking because it seems the big selling point of WASM, running new types of code that you couldn't run before, was never a problem on the server, where you can run whatever you like.

So, I'm assuming you have something else in mind, and I'm wondering what it is.
I'm guessing this is an unpopular idea but is it possible we just don't need as many journalists? I 100% Agree that journalism is important but before the internet, for the most post, every news paper needed people to cover every story they wanted to run. Even if they took a story from the AP or Ruters they still needed someone to dig that up. Now, there is no reason why the AP and Rutere can't just publish their content themselves to the entire world. Similaly a local newspaper doesn't need to pay someone to cover the world news. We don't need every major news paper from every country to have reporters in every other country as they can just use someone else's reporting.

I'm guessing your first thought to that is we need multiple voices and points of view and I don't disagree. I'm just pointing out that in 1975 you probably had 2-5 reporters from Sweden in NYC, 5-15 from Germany, 5-15 from France, 4-7 from Italy, 2-3 from Spain, 5-15 from the UK, 3-4 from Ireland etc etc. Add up all the major countries and their might have been 400+ NYC foreign correspondents. Do we need all 400 or has the internet made it so we only need 10-20? Apply that concept everywhere, even to local papers and it seems like the biggest hit to journalism isn't Google, it's the internet itself. Just like a few wheat harvesting machine replace hundreds of workers the world has changed to one where far less journalists can do the work of what used to take many more?
Absolute quality has probably gone up with increased efficiency for cheaper goods/tech.

However because scarce things are driven by pseudo auction dynamics that depends on wealth disparity rather than absolute cost young people quickly realize there is a ceiling.

Because they know they can't break that ceiling money may as well be spent on fun "now" things. Or hail Marys like Bitcoin. Because in many ways, scarce things are the only things of "true" value.

There is a parallel here to the disenfranchisement of the black community. You can live "comfortably" as long as you don't try to cross the moat. Energy that could've been spent improving quality for all is spent on digging the moat deeper.
It's always kinda humbling to see how much performance is still left on the table in some base/core libraries everyone uses. It'd be nice to have seen what the compiler output is in comparison - and explore if there is a way to reorganize the code to "coerce" the compiler to output something similar.

The few times I've had to do similar things - I usually work by tweaking the code to give me the desired compiler output and I really try to avoid inline assembly. This usually helps me learn some limitations of C/C++ and what the compiler can deduce

Lunacy. Under what rule, law or authority are we just allowed to bomb/attack other nations? Imagine if china, russia or any other nation acted like this. The media would be screaming bloody murder and calling other nations evil, depraved, etc. When we do it, it's "strikes on chemical weapons sites", it's for democracy, it's for freedom. One day, I hope leaders of all nations are held to account for their crimes and not just the leaders of poor and weak countries. And most importantly, I hope one day the media are held accountable for their part in war mongering as well. Rule of law should be applied to all, not just the poor and weak.

Another reason is that the housing market is grossly inflated (UK). I would get a better house to rent for £1000/month rent than a house for £1000/month interest-mortgage, in addition to the professional "flexibility" off not having the mortgage "to loose". I am a contractor, so I move around with the work, and certainly earn more income doing so also. The long term, is that I make it big, and then outright buy a house. All or nothing! And in the meantime, I pick up the phone when the house needs maintenance :)
For Canadians, I've found that Pinehedge Farms (http://pinehedge.com/) make the closest yogurt I've found to Bulgarian yogurt. It's pricy and hard to find, but its thick, tastes right and even has that fatty layer on top that's a mark of using non-homogenized milk. First timers might be put off by it, but think of it as free clotted cream or light butter and use it!

Personally, I started making my own yogurt after getting an InstantPot and a packet of Bulgarian starter culture. It's very easy, tastes great and is cheaper than even the cheapest yogurt you can buy at the store. You can also control if it comes out fresh/sweet and the degree of sourness.

Another thing I've experimented with is making yogurt cheese. Regular fermentation requires 6-8hrs at 40C (depending on how sour you want it), but I started fermenting for 60hrs. At that stage, it's so sour, it's not edible, but once it's strained most of the acidity is gone and you're left with incredibly thick, flavourful yogurt. I use it instead of sour cream, for tzatziki, with jam, etc.

> (the Mac was done in 1984, 11 years after the more powerful and capable Parc Alto, which started working in 1973).

I find this comment mildly irritating. The Alto apparently cost $40k [1] in (or around) 1973, which was equivalent to $95k in 1984 (or $232k today). Compare with the Mac which cost $2.5k in 1984.

Sure, the Alto may have been more powerful, but if it was financially out of reach of almost everybody, it's no wonder it had a limited direct impact.

I wonder if it's a trend that Alan underestimates the importance of economics for technology to actually have an impact.
