That's not what's being contended. If you claim something about your product, that claim should be true, including it's geographical origin.

But that doesn't answer the question: does Cheddar cheese made in the village of Cheddar have some intrinsic, inimitable quality that can't be achieved outside of that village?

(And industrial producers do indeed plop down large factories in certain geographies so they can churn out large quantities of bland product, yet slap a geographical origin label on it, so it doesn't even protect against that).
> ...easier to get over the dopamine addiction because you can't log into an account that you don't have anymore.

What you say is only true if you can suppress your addiction for N days without logging in. Deleting a Facebook account takes N days to "process", but everyone knows its just a manipulative policy designed to prevent people from following through with deletion.

For all intents and purposes, when you try to delete your Facebook account, they basically say "Sorry, we won't let you do that until you can prove you won't use it again for N days". Logging in at any time before the Nth day will automatically abort the deletion.

On top of that, there's this practice of differentiating between suspension and deletion going around, which makes proper deletion an intentionally obfuscated task. I remember deleting my Quora account to be a strangely convoluted process.

There needs to be a distinction between "proper deletion" and "not even a deletion". The current account deletion feature is "not even a deletion". I hope one day "not even a deletion" is looked down upon enough to warrant change. Deletion means "proper deletion", it never meant anything else to anyone.

I think worry, anxiety and paranoia are normally healthy instincts (planning for the future) that got out of control. From the description, it sounds like that "circuit" has gone overdrive and this generally anxious state has become habitual.

As others have noted, and from my own experience, I believe you can self-program or (de-)hypnotize yourself, to enforce healthier thought/behavior patterns consciously. Sometimes, the help of others is just what you need, whether it's spouse, friend, or a professional. The unbalance ("disorder") could have hormonal/chemical causes too, so would recommend plenty of sunshine, exercise (oxygen), balanced diet, vitamins..

I'll also echo another commeter's emphasis on the value of humor to alleviate worries and have a more open outlook on life.

In VLIW like Itanium, the compiler had to determine not only instruction dependencies but it had to fully schedule when each instruction would execute, even though critical information like cache access time cannot be known by the compiler. In EDGE architectures the processor still does dynamic "out of order" instruction scheduling which gives much better performance.

I haven’t read the relevant papers, but I imagine they were targeting something that presented more like a fine-grained MIMD and less like VLIW. That is, many tiny cores with independent execution pipelines, not a few large cores with very wide paths of functional units.

Depends on what your definition of "magic" is.

For example, we specifically have a "Reducing Boilerplate" docs page [0] that talks about writing reusable logic for reducers and action creators, like "higher order reducers" or a `createReducer()` util that accepts a lookup table of action types to handler functions. There's many existing libs that implement this kind of pattern [1].

Beyond that, there's other libraries that provide a higher level of abstraction, like automatically generating logic to handle common use cases (normalizing data, updating certain fields, etc) [2].

Updating data immutably can become complex [3], so there's a lot of immutable update utility libraries out there [4]. I recommend Immer [5], which lets you write normal mutative code but then applies the updates immutably.

Finally, there's frameworks built on top of Redux, like Kea and Rematch [6].

So, plenty of options available, depending on what you're comfortable with.

I chuckled at this one.
One big problem with the Itanic was that the compilers weren't (yet) smart enough to produce good code for it. This does not seem that much of a problem here, as it seems pretty close to how compilers keep immediate representation anyway.

Certainly. Traditional practices for making many fermented products -- like beer, wine, and cheese -- involve allowing the culture to start naturally, from bacteria/yeast present in the environment. Other area will have different strains of bacteria/yeast present, so the same recipe may behave differently, or not work at all, if it's attempted somewhere else.

I like that this architecture tackles a large problem in existing architectures, which Mike Pall put rather nicely:

> All modern and advanced compilers convert source code through various stages and representation into an internal data-flow representation, usually a variant of SSA. The compiler backend converts that back to an imperative representation, i.e. machine code. That entails many complicated transforms e.g. register allocation, instruction selection, instruction scheduling and so on. Lots of heuristics are used to tame their NP-complete nature. That implies missing some optimization opportunities, of course.

> OTOH a modern CPU uses super-scalar and out-of-order execution. So the first thing it has to do, is to perform data-flow analysis on the machine code to turn that back into an (implicit) data-flow representation! Otherwise the CPU cannot analyze the dependencies between instructions.

> Sounds wasteful? Oh, yes, it is. Mainly due to the impedance loss between the various stages, representations and abstractions.

> USB-C

I've had two MBPs with only USB-C ports, and this is a complete non-issue to me. I have a "microdock" that gives me the ports I want when I want them and otherwise stays put away. Even on my Samsung TabPro, which only has a single USB-C port, it's not really an issue.

> lack of hardware updates

This is a huge issue for me. Apple has kept the pricing high on their notebooks while not improving performance. The only thing they have going for them from my POV these days is build quality and macOS. Others are catching up in build quality, and even Windows 10 supports native Linux well enough that macOS has lost much of its luster.

> keyboards

Meh. I don't really have an opinion on this one. I'm typing on a "new" MBP keyboard right now and it works fine. It's a bit sensitive to sand and other particles, but so far I've not had one actually fail to the point that the issue wasn't resolved with a few hard keypresses and a shot of compressed air.

> try to start using primarily OSS software

This is probably the key to why I'm both dissatisfied with Apple and not as upset as others seem to be about it. I moved to macOS in ~2011 because I wanted a durable laptop, and planned to install ArchLinux on it. I gave macOS a shot and it was "close enough" to Linux that it didn't make sense to deal with all the headaches of dealing with a non-native OS.

> Apple is making a lot of money in the iOS ecosystem

... and as best I can tell, that's where they're innovating too. I sold my personal MBP this spring, bought a 6th-gen iPad, and haven't looked back. It's more than suitable for mobile media consumption, programming (via MOSH to a remote server), and photo processing.

Unless something big changes, my next machine will probably be an iPad Pro in a couple of years. I have no plans at this time to ever buy a laptop for myself again.
Let us give thanks that Ballmer is no longer around. He woulda made sure it was named Windows.
The common thread I see is that mixing native and react-native is hard. Doing so while working across organizations that may or may not use react-native is doubly so. Sometimes this boils down to the technology, knowledge, and the engineering systems needed to support both but I've also found native developers tend to strongly dislike react-native and lobby against whenever they can.

For me, I'm using it to successfully build mobile apps for a large tech company with very limited mobile developer resources. We've been able to ship Android and iOS apps in a couple months using 100% react-native. I attribute a lot of this to knowing the limitations of the platform and designing a cross-platform experience from the start rather than trying to get the "best of native" out of abstracted JavaScript.

I'll always argue that native is the way to go for the best user experience but react-native is a great tool to have in the mobile space.
It's laughable to state that such a war is unwinnable.

Totalitarianism is a historic precedent which demonstrates the possibility of propaganda supremacy.

It's only impossible to win a fight like this, if one refuses to do harm to those who engage in the behavior being controlled. Make an example of a few people, and wow, look at how quiet it gets.

The entire economy's goal is growth, seems pretty catch all.
There is a lot wrong with internet/general utility regulation in the US, but I think it's mostly the last-mile cable logistics which are preventing competition in heavily populated areas, and that results in localized monopolies or duopolies.

This piece addresses the philosophy of the potential issues better than some, but this net neutrality hysteria in general seems to me like a lot of well intentioned folks are trying to solve a problem which does not exist, despite having had decades to develop (while the associated technology is still rapidly transforming, the Internet is no longer such an immature, radical new thing). Adding controversial regulations to the most innovative technology sector in the US to solve a problem which might develop (and could in all likelihood be undone very quickly and without significant infrastructure changes, were this to begin to develop into a problem) seems ridiculous to me. I imagine there are many better trees to bark up.

But to entertain the idea, of the three final 'key principles' the author lists, the first two are reasonable and unlikely to break things (if it was possible for Congress to write a one-page bill that contains only the language necessary to implement these rules, and nothing else). The third one is a slap in the face of innovation and new services in my eyes, although the author acknowledges it may be extreme.

The only sweeping public policy that I could support to address a problem in this space would be for one which already DOES exist: the lack of competition in the ISP space for the last mile. A possible public solution could include cities implementing a basic cabling system that cover all residences in urban areas (independent from any other private cables, which would likely be superior) that any ISP can connect to and serve via a city hub (much closer to the backbone, with an access point being outside the urban area, allowing many competitors to build infrastructure around it).

Not sure what your argument is. The definition of "smartness" seems to be very subjective in this case.
> A startup is a company that hasn't identified a profitable business model.

That seems like an equally useless definition. The profitability of many business models, especially ones in tech and manufacturing, is dependent on their scale so there's a circular dependency. More importantly, the meaning of "identifying a profitable business" is itself unclear. If I open up a new coffee shop in town, is my business model selling beverages, selling coffee, or selling coffee to the ~20k people who walk through my main street location (I'm using a small business example for simplicity's sake)?

That's why I often hear the term "product-market fit" as a way to describe startups. A coffee shop's market is set based on location and the product is a combination of the coffee and atmosphere but the area might be too competitive or too low volume to be profitable. In my opinion, even a coffee shop can be considered a startup until it is in the black and a small business afterwards because there is little opportunity to grow.

> Legally, the definition is further restricted to a company which hasn't begun revenue-generating activities.

This is better but then what is "revenue generating" activities? Putting up a Stripe form? Sending out sales people? Doing some marketing? Several of my previous startups had early stage partnerships which paid out a decent amount of money in exploratory contracts before we pivoted to the final iteration of the product. We may have even been profitable for a short while but I'd find it hard to argue that we weren't a startup or that we were a small business/established corporation.
Dividing the total number of patents by 182 years masks some of the realities. Namely, there are significantly more patent grants in the past decade compared to any other. For example, 2015 had 325,979 patent grants, compared to 2005 with 157,718. There's a pretty clear trend, see https://www.uspto.gov/web/offices/ac/ido/oeip/taf/us_stat.ht....
I think the distiction is between personal experiences, and activity on projects, requiring review, to determine the disclosure of information which may or may not reveal trade secrets.
What’s interesting is that the technique he employs here (blurring the top and bottom of the sphere) sounds like something similar to what I remember reading from "Masters of Doom".

Namely, that when he created Wolfenstein 3D (Doom’s predecessor), he basically only rendered the walls + sprites and not the floor or ceiling, because computers + graphics engines weren’t as capable at the time.
If the Koch Brothers were serious about a less intrusive government they'd spend at least as much money on, e.g., fighting parking requirements. Then the need or lack thereof for publicly-funded mass transit wouldn't be left to the imaginations of idealists and cynics.

As it is, the Koch Brothers are just reactionaries doing at least as much damage as the idealists. I'll take idealism over cynicism any day. As long as municipalities aren't permitted to hide the costs (of expenditures, of tax breaks) then the tax burden is a sufficient counter-veiling force to the worst excesses.
If you decrypt an encrypted filesystem on an untrusted computer, it's game over already then. And assume that your passphrase is compromised as well.
The consensus of historians is pretty clear on the subject though. However, if now a layman considers "We can't even be sure that the Greeks, at the time of Philip & Alexander" shows the extent of the damage this light "stupid" naming situation has caused. Would you consider Spartans or Athenians or people of Thebes not to be Greeks?

>>This is like insisting that what gay "really" means is happy. It's neither true or false statement. It's nonsensical.

Yes, that word has been overloaded with multiple meanings. Yet your example is perfect as it shows that people care how you call them and how you refer to them. If I go and define gay as something else, people referring themselves as gay probably will not appreciate my renaming. If I change the meaning of the terms U.S. citizen, British etc people would not take it lightly either.

Now consider you do that for a race, that is proud for its past for at least the last circa 2000 years. And it is done in a form of bullying. Recall this whole naming situation started during the Cold War and Greece was blackmailed to "keep in line" for the greater good. Recall USSR and the rest of the allies were both imagining their world. USSR's gift to Tito to side with them encompassed all of Northern Greece and Bulgaria, and that was his aspiration.

Consider a Greek, especially one in Macedonia; they are proud of their ancestors and have seen a lot of bullying from a financial and political perspective being applied on them the last few years. Now the same outsiders come in and say that while we settled on a U.N. name originally, we did not really used it and you have to find a compromise and make it work, whatever the cost for Greece. I am sorry, but historically silly issues like this have backfired for the area and Greece. Let us hope there is no war over this (if you think people would not fight over this area see WWI, Balkan Wars, and WWII atrocities; Cold War was not that cold in that area; the Yugoslavia war (90s) was over identity).

I've been a blockchain watcher since 2010. I started (and abondoned) the first Ethereum meetup in ATL. After having several chances to become a blockchain millionaire and staying on the sidelines, I finally dove in 4th quarter of last year. I watched $3k turn into $115,000 in about 3 months, then watched it evaporate back to $3k. Saying I have a few crypto regrets is the understatement of a lifetime. That being said, this space has taught me one of the most valuable business lessons - skeptics stay broke while dreamers and sale people buy lambos.

Whenever webster's gets around to defining "shitcoin" "TRX" should be the first synonym but that hasn't stopped Justin Sun from raking in billions and now buying BitTorrert.

> If you are deriving revenue from that video stream

By opting out of ads you're also opting out of your share of the revenue so by definition you're avoiding a potential profit stream. I think you'd have a fair point if it was a publicly-listed company complaining about ads hosted for free on YouTube but come on -- these are free, educational videos hosted for the explicit purpose of democratizing knowledge.

Again, you're not wrong. YouTube is within their rights to do this. I just think it's an incredibly disappointing move from Google.
Not trying to be argumentative or anything, but newspapers and magazines have long had a similar model, but you have to pay for them. So does that 25 cents change you into the customer, even though they make way more from ads? I think it is a greyer area then people think.

We are entering what is called by some deep thinkers as "The Attention Economy" and you pay for stuff with your time and attention which clearly is worth money.
i'm not sure i agree with everything you wrote, but i do share this sense that US policy has tried to optimize for some over-simplified, short-term, dollar-maximizing measurement.

It is same with Xamarin. They don't have people that would know these languages, and they would be passionate about them.
Try writing something as simple as a dialog in Qt. It all makes sense, you subclass a QDialog, instantiate it and show it.

Try doing that in pure HTML/CSS/JS, you're basically left with a clusterfuck. There's piles and piles of libraries built to workaround this clusterfuck from Bootstrap to react-modal and even the best of them have worse APIs for this than Qt does.

Ultimately, drawing widgets just makes more sense for desktop applications than trying to hack document-oriented HTML to be a usable UI framework.
