Yes, they do. Obviously they might not know that the difference is due to the app being coded differently, but people do notice the little bugs and odd workarounds and slightly off UIs in apps where the dev(s) are either not skilled enough or don't care enough to hunt down every case. Granted, they may not react (heh) much more than "Huh, this app does this weird thing"

I'm so glad you mentioned this, I find that when I have to switch back and forth between mac and windows, I struggle with muscle memory switching from ctrl to cmd, and on mac I always struggled to figure out which window is my active window.

Such tiny things, but it's one of the things that has kept me on windows (even though I used a mac most of the time for the past two years).

Some of my co-workers switch between mac, windows & linux without skipping a beat.

At least the first image they talk about that references https://github.com/docker/hub-feedback/issues/1121 is not "backdoored". As the title even says, it's a malicious image that mines a cryptocurrency.

A backdoored image would be something like a 'nginx' or 'minecraft' image that starts the server but also mines in the background.

It seems ars added the "backdoor" bit when they should have kept it as just "malicious"
No, I only have the 2018 XPS13. I have other older Dell's that are similarly afflicted audio blight, but they're not XPS. I haven't dual-booted in 10 years so can't help with that.

I know someone started a DSX at some point. Not sure what happened with that.
I'm intrigued by what research and plans have been made for how Martian colonists will deal with this sort of problem. I'm guessing solar won't be enough to keep a colony going. Wind power, even in a dust storm, wouldn't be possible because the air is so thin. Nuclear of some kind seems the only other option.
This is so clearly the best post. Where are the upvotes?

I know it's pedantic, but that's not true. 0.17% of people have DSPS. It's entirely possible that you don't regularly interact with anyone that has DSPS.
This series of longform articles is incredible. The first batch are on the history of the switch and probably add up to a shortish book in length. There's a nice focus on how at several steps there were many who discovered a new innovation, but there were fewer who had a clear grasp of what their innovation meant and could carry the field forward. Can't wait for this author to publish a book.
Or just let it go completely unmoderated.
Truth and the fact that Apple seems to be one of the diminishing number of manufactures still making/upgrading new tablet models.
Not to mention that far more than a lifetime has been collectively invested in it. Given its budget of $400M, and assuming an engineer costs roughly $1,000/day, we have about 1000 people-years invested in this project.
I haven't read Gruber in a while. Is this as uncharacteristically critical and disappointed as it seems based on my recollection?

There's nothing to see here. "Party" (capitalized) and "person of a Party" have specific meanings in this document, as defined in the definitions section:

"Party means any State or separate customs territory for which this Agreement is in force;"

"person of a Party means a national or an enterprise of a Party;"

(Chapter 1, Section A, Article 1.3, [0])

So the statement "No Party shall require the transfer of..." restricts what a State that signed the treaty may do to the persons and enterprises of another State. For example, China can't require Microsoft to disclose its source code as a condition to selling Windows in China.

Regarding the other quote about contracts, the operative part is "Nothing in this Article shall preclude". So this treaty has no effect on terms regarding source code in commercially negotiated contracts. Even if you are of the misguided belief that FOSS licenses are contracts, this provision does not affect them.

Finally, FOSS licenses are not contracts because they do not contain bargained-for reciprocal promises. They are grants of rights, subject to terms and conditions. A FOSS license operates as a defense against copyright infringement. If the terms and conditions are not met, then the license is void. The infringer can then be sued for copyright infringement, not breach of contract. This has two important implications: (1) a court won't order specific performance (a contract remedy) in a case of copyright infringement, and (2) a third party has no standing to sue, because where there is no contract there can't be a third-party beneficiary (only the rights-holder may sue).

>In regard to being determined, I know this sounds like survivorship bias but you really do get better at what you're attempting to do by sticking with it

This is survivorship bias. You're a survivor and can look back on the set of decisions you've made in the past to rationalize your current success. I've seen countless businesses linger for years only to shutdown later and sell their assets.

I find learning a language a poor analog here as it's much simpler and generally within your control. More effort is more closely tied to more results. Language learners aren't typically affected by seasonality, fads, or market conditions.

It's all of these other factors that make analyzing business success factors tremendously difficult. Because it's so difficult, it's easier and more straightforward to assume "I'm successful, so my decisions were the right ones" than "I'm successful mostly due to luck".
Lots of things should be one way and aren't. See racism. The point of these discussions is proposing on the how of making should into does.
Ask HN: Would you trust / work for a company funded entirely through tokens?
(Using a burner account for anonymity).

I'm about to become a third time founder (one success, and one failure), and I've been exploring how to fund the next project.

From my perspective, running a token sale seems incredibly attractive (the hassles associated with traditional fundraising are well known.)

However, I'm concerned about reputation - raising from GV or Sequoia brings with it a certain amount of credibility, while many ICO / token sales are total frauds.

So, I'm asking - would YOU personally trust, or work for, a company founded entirely through token sales? Would this be a red flag to you, or would you not care?
I don't know for sure obviously, but based on my time in the semiconductor industry they will force lower volume sales through distribution (even if the part is not generally available). This is for financial risk and supply chain reasons (e.g. RMAs, shipping/customs/tax/duty).
Brought my following down to 9 accounts last week and enjoying the flow again. I have always used Twitter passively, only re-tweeting 3-4 interesting stories a day. Hoping TensorFlow for healthy conversations does not spoil this sort of 24/7 breaking news from trusted sources, now. What I fear the most, is having my flow made of one tweet from sources I choose & one tweet TensorFlow suggests to me.
Without disagreeing with your broader point, I'm happy to say that ripgrep was introduced using a title that never mentioned "Rust" (that was very much intentional on my part), and there isn't any Rust source code in the intro blog post.[1] To be fair, I did just re-skim it to make sure. There are plenty of references to Rust, but Rust had a very minor role in the blog post itself. It, of course, has a very major role in the viability of continued maintenance and feature development of ripgrep though. :-)

There will hopefully be a ripgrep-related blog post in the near future that will feature Rust quite a bit, but that will be about a library, not a tool.

A lot of coarse adjectives come to mind to describe that girl, but all I'll say here is what a terrible thing she did.
I had to look up Hegemonic Masculinity, and I think I definitely know somebody with this trait (if it is valid) -- one of my employees. I hired him specifically to deal with problems with other employees as a manager. Part of his job he leaves early to coach soccer (which they are doing good, going to state). His children are great and he is completely engaged on a daily basis (they all live on a large farm, if that makes this different) so this is inconsistent with what I know. I wonder how they screened fathers and categorized them, I can't find the actual text of the study.
This is a pretty unrealistic view of how big companies work. Engineers aren't fungible, and no one has been "pulled off" of React or React Native to anything like you suggest.

React is my full time job (I was also the #1 committer before joining FB) and no one is planning to abandon it. Even if Facebook company leadership decided for some reason to divest, React would live on with the support of its community similar to other projects without corporate backing.
I would say there is plenty of competition for best display these days (I say this typing on a current model mbp15).

In addition to the already-mentioned Chasm City... Into the Sea of Stars by William R. Forstchen comes to mind. Generational ships take off from a dying Earth. The Earth recovers and faster-than-light technology is eventually developed. The FTL ships are tasked with tracking down the generational ships.
Apple does not have a 'desktop' lineup.

The only desktop machine they have is the Mac Pro, and that is rarely updated.

Web-based applications will all be the same, CLI programs will mostly be the same between any nix operations system, homebrew is conceptually not that different from any other package manager. Most IDEs are very portable. What's the main hurdle in switching from macOS to any other nix?
Most iOS developers writing 'custom' UI, etc. are just customizing UIKit controls. Same for Android. Not many are creating UI controls from scratch with custom hit testing, drawing, and accessibility handling.
> Concerns focus on a provision that would let publishers claim royalties for the use of snippets of information, such as tables or headlines. This was included with the aim of enabling news publishers to secure revenue from social-media platforms such as Facebook and Google. But a proposal added by a European Parliament committee would mean that the provision also applies to academic publications.

In other words, this proposed rule is to address the made-up problem that publishers aren't content that third-party news aggregators are doing them a favor by sending them readers; they want to milk them for additional revenue.

The EU parliament committee seems to be acting consistent with the belief that fixing this perceived unfairness is more important than considering the unintentional negative side-effects.

> But FIU's bridge was designed to mimic the dramatic look of a cable-stayed bridge, where the deck is suspended from cables fanning out from a tall mast. In FIGG's design, though, the "cables" — actually metal pipes — were mostly just for show. The diagonal, v-shaped struts of the truss did the structural work.

I've always found it useful to hone in on anything that is done purely for aesthetic reasons.

We build a house recently. I really wanted exposed rafters, there was some complexity around insulation, and the architect responded by proposing some "faux" rafters. The idea was so revolting that it prompted more examination, which identified some mistakes. In the end, a simpler, better, cheaper solution was found that did not have faux elements in it.

MIPS and RISC-V are very, very similar. Makes sense if you realize that they modified MIPS and started adding opcode space and features from there. Essentially, RISC-V is a modern do-over of MIPS, just with variable length instructions, floating point, and new opcode space and extensions.

I'm much more likely to continue to update a site in my spare time if it's a static site on a managed service than if I have to keep on top of security updates for a web server and a CMS and a backing database and the operating system(s) underneath it all. It's just too much administration for something I mildly enjoy doing in the first place.

But your insistence that Wordpress (possibly as a static gen) is worth it has me interested. Where would you recommend I pick up a DRM-free copy of the first edition?
Is there any of this new architecture on the master branch yet? I am currently working on a React Native renderer and would like to try and make sure it will be compatible with this re-architecture.
I know this isn't the fault of the author but I don't like the way periods seem to be overloaded in the Haml example:

%h2.f2.helvetica.strike

The first period denotes a tag on the left and a class attribute on the right, but the other periods just denote sibling classes. They don't parse into the same syntax, and my instinct is to read it as (h2 (f2 (helvetica (strike))) but that's not what's happening.

And adding significant whitespace to Markdown and everything else to me just serves to obfuscate and abstract away the one thing I most want in a markup language that emits HTML, which is to easily visualize the tree and the markup.

Are you working with any recruiters? They can both help you polish your resume and get the attention of hiring managers. They may even be able to coach you on interviewing, if that's where you're having trouble. If you're job hunting full-time, work with around 3-5 recruiters at a time. (If you're just looking on the side, stick to 1-2.)

I know recruiters have a bad rep, but they're not all spammers. The good ones, who develop real relationships with both candidates and hiring managers, can be very effective.

In the meantime, maybe you could get some contract work through something like Toptal? (They set a decent rate floor; whereas I'd suggest avoiding Upwork and the like.)

Since it sounds like you're in a cash crunch, another option to consider for quick cash might be TaskRabbit or even, yes, fast food.

I'm not a Mac user or a Linux user. I'm a Unix-like user, and pretty much everything else is gravy. Switching from iTerm2 to Tilix doesn't faze me; zsh still works the same. Literally the only apps I use that are Mac-constrained are Logic Pro X (I have a dedicated machine for that) and the occasional Adobe app--and I dual-boot my desktop and my primary laptop with Windows, so I care much less about that there, too.

Oh, and Keynote is nice, but web Keynote is fine for my purposes. But everything I use for my actual job is either a web app (LucidChart, etc.) or is eminently portable (Unix tools, VSCode, etc.).
I use my ipad pro as a laptop replacement. It works better than I expected except for a few quirks around keyboard support in apps like safari and aws workspaces which are irritating enough to make coding bear impossible.

I can't disagree with the contents of your comment; I upvoted it.

Yes, this work is incremental, not a breakthrough; it's a natural progression from a lot of other prior work.

BUT they're doing this with environments (not just with objects), with an agent that explores those environments, with color (unlike some of the older work), and with evident applicability in a range of "Open AI Gym"-style deep RL tasks.

I find the examples the authors show amazing. They feel qualitatively different. The fact that the work is incremental doesn't make it any less impressive.

BTW, I remember reading that paper from MIT when it came out; I find it also amazing -- even if in the end it's all only "fitting a manifold to a set of points."
Calling someone a moron is claiming they are mentally ill. Unless I have lost touch with the world and you think moron translates simply to worthless piece of shit or something of the like.

I wonder if there are any stats around probability of success (measured by not going bankrupt) at different levels of revenue?

For instance, what percentage of companies that are able to reach $5k monthly recurring revenue go under then the same metric at $10k, $20k, etc etc

Anybody seen anything like that or have an idea?
I don't think the breakthrough here is generating a 3D space from 2D snapshots.

I think it's the idea that a network capable of doing that is a far, far better input to training an agent than flat images, or even the ground-truth 3D space.
My experience does have to be true, but sure, not everybody has to be like this. They often are, though.

Πορτογαλία – Ισπανία για τον 2ο όμιλο Μουντιάλ 2018
I left the bay area in 2013 when my third kid was born. I'm about 110 miles north now.

I expected that as I withdrew from long office hours, replacing it with remote work, my income stagnate (or go down). The opposite happened - my income has actually gone up steadily.

Towards the point of this topic - I have been able to spend a lot of time with my kids. We walk (or bike) to and from school, I coach sports, and I'm able to see all of the recitals, performances, and various events. My kids are age 12, 7, and 5 for those wondering.

I do work quite a bit, but the work is performed at odd hours, and not during prime family hours. It helps to find companies that is geared towards projects and your performance over the long or medium term, rather than people who want to see butts-in-chairs when they are at the office.

I encourage everyone to try to replace their commutes with more time with loved ones. Move your working hours around, if at all possible.

Can be attributed to lack of trust in the medical system. Just look at doctor's willingness to give out opoids. Doctor's first line of defense for depression is SSRIs, if those don't work they often try Serequel or worse.

A doctor won't analyze your life like a therapist would and ensure you have a good diet, sleeping schedule, friends, career, family, etc. For 99% of people these are the causes of depression and can be remidied without medication.

And don't chalk this up to a USA problem. I'm from Canada and my doctor is a pill pusher.
