I had an iPaq too, along with a range of HTC/HP/O2 Pocket PC and Windows Mobile devices. The overall experience was dismal with a very slow Mobile IE browser and awkward UX using a stylus. Using the iPhone was like experiencing an alien technology. Flew to San Francisco from Singapore just to buy an iPhone and ordered a SIM delocker to allow me to use it on an non-AT&T network.
That's still a non-trivial problem, depending on how easy it is to adapt logs from a library; maybe with a proper logging facade, it's easy to attach those adapters to those logs, but I suspect most libraries don't have strong contracts around the formats of their logs, as it is. Maybe that's something to improve.

You also gain extra hardware and protocol support by going to a Linux based solution e.g. BSD does not support 6LoWPAN or any IEEE 802.15.5 hardware to my knowledge.
Perhaps, though it’s not a good sign and we don’t have all the details.
Thanks for providing the numbers and your take on the situation.

I think we come away with quite different reactions to the same facts: I view it as telling that Uber spent roughly four times what the taxi lobby spent, but most of the conversational focus regarding spending targets the taxi lobby - one of many widespread biases in which some bits of the for-hire transportation debate get more frequently talked about and others usually overlooked.

The (legitimately real) rank and file support and skewed discussion focus which Uber's ad/lobbying money has bought them isn't my idea of grassroots backlash, even if it unwittingly enlists the grassroots in their PR campaign.

No doubt the taxi lobby is pushing their interests just like Uber pushes theirs. Neither set of industry lobbyists is truly looking out for the citizens.

But when the conversation they've shaped pairs "bought the mayor and City Council" for the less-spending party with "created a grassroots backlash" for the more-spending party, I can only marvel impressed and saddened at Uber PR's effectiveness.

In most cities, the local taxi lobby plus the citizens who oppose Uber/Lyft/Juno/Gett for normal public policy reasons are even more outclassed against a major VC-funded global would-be monopolist like Uber than NYC managed. I'm impressed at de Blasio and City Council for holding firm.

(As you can tell, I'm no fan of these companies for several reasons, but explaining those reasons substantively would be a huge tangent.)
Possibly I'm being a bit blind, but I can't seem to find the dungeon creation rules in there?

LEDs put out a lot of blue because most of them are based on phosphorescence, and high energy light (blue or ultraviolet) is required to drive the phosphors. It's possible to make a white LED without phosphors by combining different colored LEDs, but they're not as bright and much more expensive. That's also how you make them color adjustable.

FYI there's (at least?) two Judea Pearl books on causality. "Causality" was written in early 2000s, and is filled with theorems + proof + prose detailing all the major results from the theory. It's not a particularly hard book if you studied Mathematics, but it is Mathematics.

"Causal inference in statistics" is a 2017 book that covers the actually important results from the previous book, in an approachable manner, and with a focus on applying the results to actual problems. Some theorems are stated formally, but usually without proof. It's 40$ on Amazon, strongly recommended. https://www.amazon.com/Causal-Inference-Statistics-Judea-Pea...
You may want to rethink your log format to have a single (minified JSON) entry per line - it can make your life easier in a variety of ways. Out of interest, what library are you using that logs single entries on multiple lines?
Having a 206MHz ARM iPaq in ~2003 blew my mind. I had the addon pack for the back and used it over WiFi without issues.

Built and sold several applications for it as well, so easy to develop for as well.

Hell you couldn't even install apps when the iPhone came out, so if you were using what was at least 5 year old technology it's no wonder you found the iPhone to be a better experience.

I bet you think the iPhone was better than the Newton too eh? Kudos on flying to SF instead of just having one shipped to you.

But is it worth the cost of forcing all EU users into not even having the option to use said service for data?

Thankfully, I don't live in the EU because I would be super pissed about all the websites blocking me because the EU no longer wants to give me the option to trade some data for a free service and I expect it to get a LOT worse once they start actually enacting fines and every company realizes that that they have really been force opting in people to data collection so it is no longer profitable to serve the EU.

In my opinion, it would be far far better to force companies to offer a "fair price" paid service in exchange for not collecting data (I'm 100% for taking them to court if they misrepresent the value your data provides so they don't overprice it forcing people to choose the free option). That way, I can choose to keep getting my free service in exchange for data and you guys can pay to protect your privacy. Does this option sound reasonable to you?
At the last Mozilla company meeting, at the all-company plenary, we had an employee reintroduce herself under her new identity. It seemed kind of normal, which struck me, as it wasn't that long ago that something like that in an entirely professional setting would have been... well, not normal. It's easy to only pay attention to bad changes and not realize how quickly good changes are happening.

I believe there are some LGBTQ social groups as well.
Heh, I've always had the opposite experience. They either want to go to the city or somewhere far South. Something close like Millbrae, South City or Burlingame? They cancel the ride.

I'm sure the people behind this have good intentions and the initiative could work out, but it's also a little bit bizarre that they have only secured "partial" funding yet are offering to throw 100k at underfunded ideas.
A great resource for an excellently flexible and rock-solid reliable platform.

The recommendation you describe is a violation of the AMP standard, which strictly disallows this for performance reasons.
>Apple does not collect or possess that customer data in the first place

In comparison to Google, for example, the difference in what the two companies want to know about you is huge.

Google has announced that it buys copies of your credit card purchase data from third party data brokers.

>Google has been able to track your location using Google Maps for a long time. Since 2014, it has used that information to provide advertisers with information on how often people visit their stores. But store visits aren’t purchases, so, as Google said in a blog post on its new service for marketers, it has partnered with “third parties” that give them access to 70 percent of all credit and debit card purchases.

https://www.technologyreview.com/s/607938/google-now-tracks-...

It's one thing to store data necessary to complete a financial transaction with your customer. Buying a customer's entire credit card purchase history regardless of who they are doing business with is an entirely different thing.
If the drivers do that, report them through the app. They’ll stop doing it pretty quickly—if it’s done often enough, they’re “fired”

About two years ago, I spoke with Comcast's CISO over the phone about a leak of a sysadmin's home directory. It included private keys, log files, configs, licensed binaries, splunk(!), etc etc. A week before, her staff told me that they were going to use the chance to offer me a bug as part of a non-existent bug bounty, which didn't (and doesn't) exist.

She (paraphrased) told me that since it wasn't a "bug", it didn't deserve a bounty as part of a bug bounty program. She followed that dribble by saying that for them to implement a bug bounty program would be far too expensive because it would lead to them having to fix all of the security flaws at Comcast. No joke.

Dear Comcast: put out a fucking bug bounty!
Women go less into STEM and higher income domains, compared to men. They have more degrees in aggregate but it's a higher proportion of "worthless" degrees. It is not meaningful to predict income.
Apple's market strategy is to take all the money off the top end of the market, and leave everyone everyone else fighting for the remnants. Unit sales don't count when there is a big mismatch in net profit per sub.

I don't know what the current market figure is for handsets, but a couple of years ago the rough stat was that Android had 80% of the unit sales and Apple had 80% of the profits.
Interesting this points out "safe spaces" as part of the infantilzation, when in fact it seems that safe spaces are one of the few things that counter infantilization of Western culture.

In my opinion, the primary reason Western culture infantilizes itself is because it refuses to address racism in any serious way. Rather, Western culture insists on looking the other way, insisting that it is not racist, that racism no longer exists, and so on. Read the book, White Fragility (or just read the New Yorker article here, https://www.newyorker.com/books/page-turner/a-sociologist-ex...).

Here's a thought. Suppose, just for a second, that racism is, in fact, cruel, absurd, and has no basis in science whatsoever, pseudointellectuals like Sam Harris notwithstanding. (Some of you will have to take quite a leap of faith to suppose this seriously; others, not so much.) If someone avoids something cruel and absurd, what happens to this person? If a traumatized person -- and racism, to all colors including white, is cruel, absurd, and traumatizing -- does not address their trauma, what happens?

The person regresses.

It is very simple psychology, and I cannot believe this great country of innovators and geniuses have still failed to understand this.
Well, I'll say this much about AMP and how it is: I actively avoid it; but then again, I don't use GMail, I search with DDG or Exalead most of the time, etc. I like the idea, I hate the implementation. I don't like a single corporation determining the course of the Web. I like the idea of a constrained standard. Then again, I also like the unrealistic idea of a single monolithic standard. When I got into making webpages, you had HTML and that was it. Then they said, "well, if you want to do some cool stuff, use CSS in addition to HTML". And now, they're trying to make it so that creating a website without using CSS or JS is completely impossible.

Really, what you're saying you want just links back to what I suggested - disable remote CSS (preferably also inline but that's a pipe-dream), disable JavaScript, disable images, and turn your content blocker on full blast. Either that or just use Links. It works for me and blocks all the crud so I can get the content I actually want. The only thing I'd like to do with Links is to change the terminal colors it uses (which I don't think I can do in Windows - if you know how please do tell me). HTML was a fine language for what it does, and it still serves as a very solid core for a Web made of pure content. Only a Web made up of utter corporate nonsense needs scripting.

The mcu used has a lot more ports available but size poses some limits, however an IR LED+photodiode/transistor could be a nice viable addon, so that it could be used as a bridge to any circuit implementing IR serial communications, or allow communicating with it when it's plugged in a USB supply only port.
> "Your business’s profitability is the most important thing to your bosses."

I think the UX is the most important thing, without it (i.e., a good one) there is no profit.

In 2018 bosses involved in web - directly or indirectly - should be well aware of this. At this point in time the web dev's job should not be to "fix" those above them. There's plenty else to do and keep up with qithout having to add risking their career to the list.

And few if any freelancers are going to speak up. Which is all the more reason the decision makers should understand the implications of their decisions.

We had a few netgate boxes, but ran into RAM dying on two of 'em, which would cause them to get wedged iirc (Never ran into wedging outside Netgate boxes). On that particular model the ram was soldered down, making it a nightmare to repair.

On the custom boxes we put in later, it was less hardware issues and much more LTE modem failure (where the LTE modem needed a reboot and wasn't offering a USB ethernet interface, causing PFSense to halt and catch fire).

Today we're split between Ubiquiti's UniFi for our earlier rollouts after dumping PFSense, and Lede for the latter ones as the remote, centralized manageability of both is a huge leap forward from what PFSense ever offered us. I can pull live stats, configure VLANs and implement them remotely and much more.

Why not? The Medium link we're all looking at right now has a 43KB CSS stylesheet. It's sent with browser headers giving it a long cache.

In the AMP world, this whole stylesheet would end up inlined, and you would download it again the next time someone posted a Medium link on HN.
You" need a business-wide performance-oriented culture, which is very difficult to develop and maintain."

No, thanks!

At that price point I think it makes sense to hold off and see what Microsoft does with the Hololens 2. I think they’ll be able to undercut this price and have less cropping.
Thanks, greatly appreciate that. This helps fuel (no pun intended) my belief that Australia is just ignorant of such things, and that this - in addition to the fact that it's very uncomfortable data - may be why we don't "hear about it" so as to speak.

The paperwork shouldn't be crushing, but RSUs are not too appealing when the company stock is far from liquid. Grant 0.5% of a $10mm company--assuming no aggressive discount on common stock--pay something like $15K in tax with 83b election? Or, no early exercise and pay perhaps much more tax on vest with no market to sell.
I spoke with a voting reform activist in San Francisco about a year ago. I expressed my opinion that one's vote should be securely auditable. He was horrified. Such a system could be used to buy and sell votes. (In other words you could prove who you voted for to someone else, if you were so inclined.)

I can't help but think both sides intentionally talk past each other in order to maintain the status quo.
Here is a wild and unprofessional speculation.

Silicon is often considered as a potential substitute for carbon in speculative discussions of alternatives to carbon-based life. Since this is such bizarre behavior for a non-carbon environment, why not, at least in the privacy of one's mind, consider silicon-based automata as the active agent? One might even consider wether they might be called life.

To speculate publicly would be ridiculed, but in an open-minded forum such as Hacker News, maybe we could indulge ourselves if just for entertainment.

More realistically, the problem is the disposal of waste products.
And apparently it is $250 when the pump is donated. Medically approved pumps are expensive. A lot of the safety control is in that pump and the protocol used to control it. It probably has two way confirmations at every step. Physical safety stops and controls. If you exclude the critical safety component (the pump) from the cost then it will be $250. That pump, with the safety controls and rigorous firmware development needed to pump insulin safely, is probably $4k-5k of the cost of the $7000 commercial pump. Also probably the reason there haven't been reports of people dying from their diy closed loop insulin pumps.
Yeah, that's what using hardware specific instructions will get you. Haven't read the changelog, assuming so based on the fact is ARM and the improvement yield.

There are lots of packages that just don't get maintained on BSD, when it comes to gigabit or less routers the whole market for consumer and small/medium business is based on customized versions of OpenWRT from the large router vendors. The depth of maintained packages and documentation is significantly larger.
I found the article an interesting read, however I couldn't help but think we are talking about AMP and small sites on Medium. When I download that article from Medium with wget I receive a 142K html file that is surprisingly small in this day and age, but still bloated more than is needs to be.

Using this script[0], I was able to get it down to 14K. Then further cleaning it up in emacs and adding <img> tags, I got the html down to 10k. That means it should take probably less than 5 seconds to load the html (not including the massive images) on a 5KB/s connection in Australia (more common thank you might think in the country areas, although getting much better with the NBN roll out) or any other 3rd world internet countries.

You can test the resulting html in this gist[1]. Please note I did that in about 20mins, and did not test on mobile, so it is not perfect. I expect the images need to be scaled to fit on mobile. Also I only used the <style> tag to keep it as one file, I don't recommend doing that on real websites.

I really hope more people start caring about saving bandwidth and client side resources (CPU, RAM, etc.)

Hold on - doesn't having this live permanently in the USB port reduce the security possible with a 2FA device? If the user has to get the key from their pocket and plug it in, it will at least prevent an attacker from accessing the user's account in a remote-desktop scenario. Certainly the requirement to press the button will mitigate this risk to a degree, but might there be exploits that can trigger this button-press event using a carefully crafted USB signal?

I understand the security vs usability thing, just beware of the risks of something like this (perhaps bluetooth-type keys like this are more usable as you don't need to bother plugging them in, assuming bluetooth decides to play nicely)
Relative links on reddit (e.g. to other posts, or subreddits) on their AMP pages are also completely broken.

No, Google is the dominate search engine which is part of an oligopoly which while still not as economically efficient as a perfectly competitive market, they have nowhere near the power of a monopoly.

If Google replaced all of their search results with ads, people would easily switch to bing as bing isn't that much worse.

Facebook on the other hand definitely is "pretty much" a monopoly (but not completely) for certain subsets of the social media market due to network effects which is why they shovel ads down your throat on their platform and they are making tons of money.

I'm tempted to apply but I'm guessing the work I want to do is too far afield of traditional ML work, maybe someone can tell me if that's wrong.

The work I want to do is not in iterations on algos, like I've been working on with CV problems, but better defining intelligence and building testing mechanisms for it along the lines of the work of the Anytime Intelligence Test [1].

Too little is being done on baselining real world intelligence and so what we get are closed world, fully observable tests, which are impressive, but aren't really functionally useful when we're trying to build or test AI's generalization capabilities.
