I reserved on 04/01/2016 and I am still holding my reservation, but not with the same enthusiasm. I love Tesla and Elon and I hope they succeed, but as I consumer I see the $35k as the equivalent of a click bait. It was the “click bait of the decade”.
If I don’t get tired and get a refund, I’ll probably purchase the $49k version. But boy, is it frustrating to see Canadians that placed orders long after me receiving their cars. I understand the reasons, but still.
The company I work for used Darwin in place of CentOS up until some time in 2015 for a good number of years. Do not recommend. At all. The case insensitive file system didn't help though in terms of running things it seemed okay but I have a feeling it wasn't really that great. Darwin seems like a good idea on paper but I don't feel like it's all that usable.
I think first you need to learn what a strawman actually means.

Yes the 3rd world absolutely wants the prosperity we have. You might disagree with that (and you would be hard-pressed to find many countries who don't aspire) but it's certainly no strawman. But hey keep telling yourself that so you don't have to deal with the facts.

With regards to whether humans are responsible for that vast majority of the change again it's not as clear cut as I am sure you would like to portray it. None the less even if that was the case it's certainly not going to be solved by stopping countries from aspiring for more prosperity for their citizens.
They overthrew the medium not the ad agencies. Its just those agencies that didn't adopt the new medium struggled.

Most large companies I have worked with still use an agency to manage ad spend for a cut. And though the pitching has an analytics bent I cant imagine its that far off how they used to pitch TV & Billboards. And they are still run by sales people not machine learning grads.
I am using it on Digital Ocean. I have had no issues whatsoever. Not only that, it’s a 1-click application too so I didn’t even have any setup issues.

That’s not to say I won’t have trouble of some sort one day - but what software is 100% trouble free?

You do know you have choices in the operating systems and hardware you use. If that's not a viable option, engaging in dialogue with Apple might be the way to go.
OpenCL itself is something that was created by Apple, and then turned over to Khronos as an open source project.

>I remember that Soviet-era math books were really good.

Right. I remember reading some as a school/college student. Ya. Perelman (author) was a good one, of some math and physics ones. I remember good discussions of perpetual machines and other popular science topics, well explained. I think their government subsidized the books for sale in countries as a form of propaganda. Still, they were good.
$25k is still a bit much for a car that tiny. What you really want is a used Leaf that has bottom out at around $5000-$8000 for great condition specimens and drive great.
Unlike Seymour Hersh's anonymous sources, the claims you're making here are easy to check and your argument is trivially refuted:

https://hn.algolia.com/?query=author:tptacek%20hersh&sort=by...

That's every comment I've written on this site about Hersh.

You'll notice there's not much there, and that what I have to say about him is not uniformly negative.
You say "most of this music does not last" but you're referring to music that was only produced a handful of years ago. It's too early to tell if it will or won't in a historical sense. In the minds of a lot of people below the age of 25, that music left an indelible mark, and very much will last. I'm not sure you've given Katy Perry much scrutiny if she reminds you of walking into a "nice, clean, new McDonald's." Perry's performance is sexually liberated and, if occasionally somewhat tone-deaf (e.g. Ur So Gay) comparatively transgressive. Further, although US literacy could be higher, most people are far from "borderline illiterate." But if you take exception with people not reading more broadly/deeply, consider reading some of the past 10 years of pop cultural criticism where the paradigm has shifted towards applying intellectual rigor to mass culture. You might learn something interesting.
There's a lot of options. Easiest is just don't upgrade -- stick with your old phone as long as you can, and don't buy any more apps. If you need to replace your phone and don't want to use standard Android, you can use an Android fork that doesn't depend on Google. (I've been hearing good things about LineageOS, but haven't tried it personally.) Alternatively, you could try a less popular mobile OS like Tizen. Another alternative would be to use an older style non-smart phone. You could even ditch the phone entirely and go back to the way people lived before the last decade or two if you want.

Just don't give Apple any more money until they change.
Well if your study involves depressed people unknowingly being manipulated with negative newsfeed items that they didn't know they consented to being subjected to in a secret study, then that's unethical. The scientists aren't stupid, they knew beforehand that in a sufficiently sized population, there will be a segment of depressed people that they are influencing to commit suicide by being subjected to increased negative newsfeed material. That is unethical to me any way you cut it.
Big congrats to GitLab on the day they're having.
I've started following specific National Geographic photographers that I really like instead.
So let me get this straight: emoji is both highly contextual and simultaneously universal?

I find that difficult to believe. On the other hand, given enough time and global interaction in that medium, it could develop a stable enough meaning across a large enough conceptual space to have a situation no worse than exists between any "standard" language and its various dialects. That'd be interesting, but I'm not holding my breath.
The early 90s? Jobs got fired from Apple in 1985, and he was never CEO during that first time there.
Surprisingly good. My tests have run across properly across 4 os's without much change. I can't verify for Apple though.
No but then they would be lying because base is 35k.
First of all you need to learn what a strawman is.

Second of all my philosophy of using technology to solve the problems that nature presents to us has no future? I am not sure what you are doing here using a computer then or why you are wasting time and energy on a website debating with strangers.
Thanks! That sounds awfully limiting if I'm being honest, even if a language is 'mostly' well-behaved... I can't say I can see how you could use preprocessing to get around the limitations since it would seem that doing so properly would require already parsing the input. It sounds like a nice method for when it works but it doesn't really sound like it would substitute for LR?

It's literally anti-capitalist: It is specifically designed to prevent software from being a form of capital that rent can be extracted from, since Free software can be given away by anyone who has it, destroying the software's value as capital.

Maybe I’ve described the problem with the Supercharger network in California, but it’s not like that at all elsewhere. In 10,000 miles of Supercharger road trips I’ve had to spend a grand total of 15 minutes waiting for an open stall.

Tons of people in Seattle drive late model luxury cars.
It's hard to say how to express that, since I have absolutely no idea what it means :) If I got that message I would be pretty confused. Is the other option literal nail-painting or is it just sarcasm?
Google Code had git support and a fair amount of traction within the open source community at one point but they let it stagnate and eventually put it in read-only mode. I don't think Google actually wants to be in the code hosting business for the community at large.

I recently bought a used Volt, and man do I think it's such a shame this car gets so much less press than Tesla.

I think it's a great car, and when you think about it, it's a much better fit for the majority of people's lifestyles. My commute is short enough so that I rarely need to use gas. One tank has lasted me 3 months so far and I haven't even used half the tank yet. However, it's great knowing that I can use it when needed, and thus I never get "range anxiety".

Also, since the electric range on my Volt is 40 miles, I didn't need to install any special electrical equipment. I just charge it on a normal 110 volt outlet (I set the charging to 12 amps which is fine on this outlet because it's the only thing on it) and it easily charges overnight.

I really do think the Volt merges the best of both worlds, and while I do think that all-electric is the future, for the time-being a plug-in hybrid is really a better option for most people IMO.
I'm not deaf, but as per the GP's comment, I can immediately see animojis with hands performing sign gestures.

If you consider how ingrained and emotionally significant that expressions in your native language are, animojis with hands - which will take that emotional significance and put a cute spin on it - is going to be massive.
I'm just curious, what "courageous" changes would you like to see in macOS?

Last time I saw a courageous desktop OS change, it was Windows merging their Mobile and desktop OS, and that was a hard fail.

It's a workstation. I prefer reliability and consistency. I think Apple knows they need to keep the general public buying macbooks with stupid superficial features, while maintaining consistent, reliable, functionality for the power users out there before they get annoyed and migrate to Linux machines. Hopefully they address the hardware reliability issues (ie. keyboards) in their next hardware release.
A fair amount, if not the majority, of Linux users also work with Linux/BSD/UNIX servers, which is all CLI. Once you get the hang of a shell, just about anything you can do in a GUI environment you can do faster from the command line and there's just so much you can't do from a GUI versus the command line. Plus there's still a bunch of us older people around from the era when a CLI was all we had. I'm just used to it.
Everyone wants the future cheaper, faster, and without any compromise, even if there is only a single whipping boy (Elon) to bring it to him
Strange that it was the unbidden personal attack that leapt out at me about your comment, and not the carefully reasoned argument that followed. I'll try harder next time.
> When it comes to fundamental science, a consistent map is the territory. "Map is not the territory" applies to simplifications that omit detail.

But physics does leave out detail. It's an abstraction over many particular instances. Nature isn't a physics equation. An equation doesn't generate a field of force, nor does it have any causal powers.

> We can never know more about reality than what we observe

If that were true, then theoretical physics wouldn't exist. Much of scientific theory involves unobservables, or processes way too long for us to observe. Most of evolutionary history is unobservable. We have to fill in the gaps with a theory explaining the fossil record, genetics, and the organisms around us.

We don't have time machines, nor billion year old cameras.
The web isn't built on specs, it's built on conventions. Safari breaks the convention.
Just be honest and maybe ask them why they care and communicate or have a discussion about it.

I guess I'm expecting system wide features that only Apple could add because they involving updating the underlying OS. Adding group chat to their video chat app that I never use for example isn't that interesting to me and shouldn't require an OS update.
Using Firefox 60.0.1 on Fedora 28, I just went into "about:config" and set "network.trr.mode" to "5" [0] since 1) I intentionally have local DNS servers that I wish to use and 2) I do not wish to send any more of my data to Cloudflare (as much as possible).

I thought this might be a good way to ensure that this behavior does not get turned on without my knowledge (whenever the time comes that Mozilla enables it by default).

Unfortunately, browsing broke immediately. I could not access any sites that I tried to access ("Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.") until I changed this setting back to the default ("0").

There aren't any mainstream cars that base at $35K and option for $30K higher. Name a make and model.
Depending on what you are working on you can pre-allocate everything you need and then turn the GC off. You can even do it in code which is nice. Similar approach to Java.
When you're calling any library, that simple C call invariably goes somewhere else inside the library itself. For OpenGL this is because there's always hooks for introspection, or because the GPU driver wants to implement something themselves, etc. For many other libraries it's just because people don't feel like they've written "production quality code" unless it goes through a bunch of hoops and ends up in some method with five underscores in the name.

In Metal the Obj-C abstraction is part of the design and used to eliminate any other abstraction people would want to introduce. The objects you get back from the API are implemented straight in the GPU vendor code, and the debug tools can swap the methods out for extra validation, recording, etc.
The fact that they’re wildly popular should provide some indication that the qualities exist.

Communication is rife with ambiguities, emotion, shortcuts, and mistakes. And between people who share friendship or more personal relationships, those “flaws” are often features, not bugs.

The concept of emoji, I feel, embraces those flaws.

(And personally speaking on the subject of emoji vs common text shorthand, if I never see “lol” again it’ll be too soon.)

Well in this very specific context, it's hard to imagine that Microsoft will be avoiding using GitHub just because it's owned by Microsoft.

"Nope most of them use some sort of game Engine, unreal and Unity dominate."

But, don't those engines use OpenGL on the backend? They need some sort of interface to the GPU, and AFAIK, OpenGL is it for both Mac OS and Linux.

Edit: Yes, at least Unity does. I can't find an authoritative source on Unreal.

https://forum.unity.com/threads/opengl-core-backend-default-...

Edit2: Found Unreal info...they switched to Metal in 4.14. So, you're OK if you develop games for Mac with Unreal.

I guess it's plausible that Unity will do the same going forward.
I'm not terribly impressed by the looks of the 3.

The front of the Tesla 3 keeps reminding me of this guy. (You see, when I look at the front of a car, there's supposed to be something there, but there's something less than what I expected.)

Do you know about the Amazon Silk web browser? If you log in to facebook in that browser, Amazon may download and store your friends' data on Amazon's servers. And that's even without any agreement with facebook.

I can think of a handful of Facebook-like experiences that would require an OS/device provider to store data on their servers, especially considering the constraints imposed on some devices (particularly older ones) and some OSes (particularly older ones and iOS).

Let's take a concrete example. Let's say that Apple wants to support contact syncing across devices. It also wants to support contact importing through fb's device integrated api.

Now, let's say that Apple actually implements that in such a way that it's encrypted end-to-end. Even in that case, Apple may have needed permission to store that data on their servers under whatever agreement the companies had and the Times could have written their story.

But I feel like that case isn't that interesting. Let's consider the case where your contacts are stored unencrypted on Apple's servers, but only for 3 hours while actually syncing to a new device (kind of a silly approach to the contact syncing case, but is likely more reasonable for other things). There may be a reasonable argument against that, but I think that most people wouldn't agree with it. Also, that argument would apply much more strongly to Android's contacts permissions (which don't require any sort of contract around how developers use/store that data).
> We are just scratching the surface of what this tech can do.

I agree, and I think that's a great way of putting it. I don't think that AR can't be compelling in the future, but right now it feels like we're between the Peak of Inflated Expectations and the Trough of Disillusionment in the Hype Cycle.
> Well certainly if I ask question A in one interview, and question A' in another, and question A' is harder and I don't pass that person, then one might be tempted to argue that maybe that person would've done better on question A; therefore, I've harmed someone by 'experimenting' and making it harder for them to get a job. Rejecting someone can certainly make them depressed.

> In principle this is no different from A/B testing an interview process, using real live humans no less.

> So do I personally have an ethical obligation to disclose to everyone I interview that I am conducting human experimentation on them? Or is the only difference in power and scale—I am just one person, but Facebook can A/B test on millions of people at once?

Generally, when interviewing, we ask the same questions of each applicant. We adjust the questions from A to A' as positions are hired, and pools are assembled, but for a specific job, each candidate gets the same questions.

It would have to be different for open recruitment not tied to a specific job, but I haven't had to do that.
I solved this problem a few years ago by setting up a parental restrictions block and intentionally forgetting the password.

The Linux Foundation is a joke organization that companies use to push their own agendas in the name of "linux and open source", when in reality very few members actually care about it. It's a 'badge of honor', nothing more.

If you need further proof, observe that Oracle is on the list. There's not a company on Earth more hostile to FLOSS than Oracle. And yet there they are, and a "platinum" member at that. Lol.

> So let me get this straight: emoji is both highly contextual and simultaneously universal?

Well, not always universal. Some are generally well understood. They're easy to learn (you might wanna also look into where to start if you're interested in learning many languages; I understood its best to start with an Asian language such as Japanese/Korean/Chinese), and on top of that even allow to learn languages easily (see Memrise and Duolingo who use SVG art to teach languages. They use the same SVG art in different languages!). Even on school when children learn their first words (which are in Dutch: boom/roos/vis/vuur, English meaning: tree/rose/fish/fire) this is done via pictures!

Emoticons and emoji are contextual, yes.

If I say:

That's fun ;) :)

That has a different meaning than:

That is fun :)

or

That is fun ;)

Different context, yet a wink or smile is universal.

And if I'd write:

Dat is leuk :)

You wouldn't understand it because you don't speak Dutch. But you would understand the smiley. Without using any translator. The emoticon & emoji always describes the text around it, like an adjective (though it could also describe other smileys). As such, it is descriptive.

True, sometimes the emoticons (and especially emoji) explanation must be explained. Once it is explained, it can be used in combination with any language. For example, the kappa emoji [1] which originates from Twitch can be used on an English stream, but also on a Spanish or Japanese one. Its generally understood within the gamer community, but if you'd start using it within your local hockey club they'd first need to understand the meaning.
