After 7 years, I switched from Android to iPhone 26 months ago. The only thing I missed was the Swipe keyboard, but then I downloaded the Google keyboard for iPhone, and I was satisfied.

Today, I still use FB Messenger, Text (iMessage by accident, but I just think its Text), Gmail (+ Calendar), Spotify, Venmo, Dropbox, FB Events and a random suite of utility applications that exist on both platforms (Chess Clock, etc).

My Androids were more robust and in 7 years never broke. My iPhone has broken it's screen twice. It is harder for me to chrome cast onto my roommate's TV. My iPhone is less configurable. My iPhone cost more.

Next time I buy a phone, I will not have any lock-in, but I'll buy a used iPhone. No questions asked. I can't put my finger on why, but the experience with the iPhone has been that good.
With respect to the notes of the same name - you can key the items with a generated id and "namespace" the keys with a journal specific id to avoid conflicts. In this way two notes having the same name is 'ok' as they have different keys.

It would help to have a user guided merge feature that can be manually triggered by combining items (not just on conflict)
It does however factor in the likelihood of a crash, and the cost of repairing the vehicle after a crash. So if the 3 is more expensive to repair than other similar vehicles, the insurance would cost more.
> What I meant is that in the case if your problem is formulated in a way that the CPLEX and Gurobi cannot treat it (e.g., stochastic and multiobjective) and is not very large-scale, then one can use heuristics. However, the efficiency of the latter will likely depend on hyperparameter settings which need to be set properly.

Ah makes sense... stochastic and multiobjective formulations have superstructures that are not exploited by MIP solvers by default, so hyperparameter tuning might be useful. Creating (exact) heuristics for these superstructures are also an active area of research.

Some solvers like CPLEX are starting to natively support higher level structures like Benders decompositions [1], but they will never support every structural variation.

They come with a wizard for setting up basics like that now.
So, I think this video succinctly captures him pretty well:

Clearly a very intelligent and insightful guy. On the other hand, he also comes across as racist and an egomaniac, and it's debatable how much of that we can chalk up to mental illness.

On a cynical level, I don't think he was the "right" kind of mentally ill person for a charity campaign. Someone who is rendered, for lack of a better word, pathetic, or pitiable, by mental illness is a good poster child that will encourage visibility, donations, etc. However, no one wants to be the company sponsoring a guy who brazenly and defiantly calls everyone who disagrees with him a CIA n-word, while repeatedly claiming himself "the smartest programmer who ever lived". Simply put, no one pities an asshole.

That's not a judgment on him specifically, more on society as a whole and how there are social repercussions for showing pity on "the wrong" kind of people.

EDIT: I'd also argue that giving him a platform whereby his worst behavior can be encouraged and goaded by faceless followers is probably the worst thing you can do to a mentally-ill person.
I have first heard of Terry Davis on HN. I am not American, so I couldn't probably do much. A lot of comments blame mental illness etc, whereas IMO, his condition being well known, an otherwise talented person like him should have been more taken care of by his relatives and anyone who was in capacity to recognize his good parts. So much people knew about him and him being so unique I thought someone would support him somehow.
OK, so I'm not in the US (in the UK), but here the dealerships will happily collect the car from you (for a small fee), wherever you want - home, work etc. if that works better for you.
The same submitter has submitted this multiple times a day on multiple occasions.
Wow, I hadn't made that connection! I just kept wondering why all recipe sites had devolved into fiendishly consistent kind of stupid.
I this is due to the overloading of the word ethical. The librem phone behaves ethically, but the Fairphone is ethically sourced (based on comments here). It'd be really neat to have something that's both ethical in behavior and ethically sourced for the parts.
I'd expect this to happen via anbox, if at all. IIRC, both the Plasma Mobile and UB Ports folks are also working on anbox integration.
Anecdote is not the plural of data. Unless if you can prove that the averages quoted above are false, touting your bill is literally meaningless.
I don't actually no anyone who says, "I got an iPhone because iCloud is amazing!"

There is precedent, though.

iTunes on Windows brought a lot of revenue in to the iTunes store, and convinced a number of people to try the iPhone.

I'm not sure it's a good time for Apple to expand its other offerings cross-platform, though. Its services are good, but perhaps not everything they should be. And supporting a small ecosystem of machines is a lot different than trying to support the eighty brazillion variations of Windows and Android machines.
I guess it is up to you to define your metric to be measured and to be optimized. To define the right metric and targets is not easy and probably is business-specific, i.e., is not the same for every business.
More importantly, almost all of Amazons searches are commercial in nature, whereas I think for Google it is only about 30%, the other categories being navigational and educational. This means that their data is much more monetisable.
this is a huge debate of our times.

It's not. This particular one is mostly manufactured twitter outrage.

I truly believe the dictionary definition of racism

You aren't using a 'dictionary definition of racism'. You're using one in which evoking literal Nazism is the same thing as being upset at someone's unfunny edgelordery. It's not a good look and you ought to reconsider.
I think scoring is not right because FPGA should be more flexible than processor and processor should be more efficient than FPGA. You might be considering a specific use case where FPGA would take over.
This is the only article I can remember reading about him: https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/wnj43x/gods-lonel...
It seems like it will be made in China, so I'm not certain it gets a checkmark for "no virtual slave labor". I could be wrong I guess.
There's actually an, at least arguable, point in your first sentence before you get to the copyright infringement. And there's a whole round-robin of content (or just "facts") being lifted from Wikipedia to put on other sites and from other sites to be put on Wikipedia that's often hard to sort out.

There is a broader point that centralization of content being found by search engines isn't ideal--even if Wikipedia were more pristine than it is a lot of the time.
I've watched the video you just linked, and the review of the bolt is pretty good actually. Not sure why you linked it as if it was a bad report.
Basically it says the bolt is a good car which lacks the "cool" factor due to its brand.
Perhaps i misinterpreted your comment? Thanks (genuine question).
So AWS has had some big outages, as has Azure. Has GCP had any big outages yet?
You would think. But it seems like when Apple raises prices, especially on the iPhone, it just gives the competitors permission to do the same thing.
Telling people who are upset about racism that their outrage is manufactured, is "not a good look and you ought to reconsider"

> You aren't using a 'dictionary definition of racism'.

The dictionary definition or racism is this:

"prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior."

So I guess I am using the dictionary definition.
Or, much more likely, that the average person who buys a Mustang GT drives ina much more accident-prone (and a much more expensive accident-prone) manner than the type of person who buys a Tesla.

A very large (and the most variable) part of the actuarial cost of car insurance is third party liability, not the liability the insurer takes on for repairs to your own car or fire/theft.

The difference between insuring a 19-year old man and a 55-year old woman on the same car is huge.
I think the fallacy isn't in the importance of timing, but the idea that there is one definite point in time in which a technology revolution happens, and if you happen to miss it, wups, sucks to be you.

Most technology revolutions have an "epicycles upon epicycles" structure, where the revolutionary technology spawns many other revolutionary technologies, sometimes decades later. The microcomputer, for example, was a revolutionary technology in 1975, and within a year had spawned two of the current tech giants (Microsoft and Apple). But whither Visicalc (1979) or Adobe (1982) in that narrative? It took time for the public to adopt microcomputers and the development platforms to stabilize before you could really build on them and create successful applications.

And then the microcomputer itself spawned the WWW, which actually was developed on workstations (1989) before microcomputers were powerful enough to run it, but gained adoption (Netscape, 1995) when consumer OSes started shipping a TCP/IP stack. A whole slate of massive web companies were spawned in 1995 (Netscape, Amazon, EBay, Yahoo, Google) because they were in a place to catch the technology revolution - but Facebook didn't get started until 2004 and AirBnB didn't take off until 2009, again because it took time for social practices to catch up to the technology.

The lesson for entrepreneurs, perhaps, is to pay careful attention to the world as it exists when you're founding your company, and look at where the trends are going. There are certainly worse times than others to found a company, and they're often towards the end of a technology wave: 2001/2002 was absolutely brutal to Web 1.0 companies, and I can't think of a single mobile startup founded in 2013-2015 that succeeded. But Ethereum, Consensys, Gemini, Brave, and other blockchain startups founded 2014-2015 are doing great; you just had to catch the next technology wave instead of the previous one.
Why anything criticizing Musk is always flagged?
The way I'd do it, is support the kernel extensions needed (or some wrapper) for the android specific stuff and leave it to the community to start actually making things work. There's a lot of research and work already done out in the android community to strip off a lot of the google play stuff from android and leave you with a functional device. I suspect that a lot of that would make the job easier on the software side. The API side (display, sound, etc.) will probably be a lot more difficult but it has been done in the past. Google's done this with ARC Welder and running some APKs in Chrome. Not sure if it's open sourced or not but if it is then it'd probably handle a good part of the work.
Happy 20th birthday Google
There's not much room for improvement there. However, the page I am writing this reply on could - it's: <https://news.ycombinator.com/reply?id=17913014&goto=item%3Fi..., which is getting ugly.

Check out the data on the anomalies here:

I also want to point out that the research paper doesn't DEFINE success as purely market cap/company valuation. (It makes for some nice opening drama/reader intrigue by the WSJ, though.)

Instead, SUCCESS is defined by the following:

"Our primary outcome measures include
(a) employment growth,
and (b) sales growth,
while we also consider (c) exit by acquisition and
(d) initial public offerings.

In the main text, we will emphasize employment growth, denoting a high-growth new venture as one that achieved a given threshold of employment 5 years after founding. We examine employment thresholds based on the Top 10, 5, 1, or 0.1 percentile."
You can't do any better than slippery slope? Who's being disengenuous?

There are several rubicons between here and AI killing machines. Why draw this particular line? Why not just halt all AI research?

If I said that banning bump stocks was "basically gun confiscation" or that implementing universal healthcare was "basically the great leap forward", would you be convinced?

I'm really trying to understand your argument here, please help me out.
I mean, in the case of google drive you could also just upload .tar.gz files containing whatever.

It's not like google drive only lets you upload videos.
It's not mentioned much but these are also a nightmare for maintainability. If your designer uses these and leaves the project then the next designer opens the file and it's just words and boxes where icons should be.

At least if SVGs are used then even if the previous designer leaves the project in a shambolic state with no sources then you can still salve the vectors from the live site.

Complete nightmare trying to do that with icon fonts.
I had not heard about anbox before but that looks fantastic. Given the work put into it I'd expect the same thing if they make official support that way. Combined with F-Droid for a package manager for android apps it'd let a lot of things get supplemented pretty easily.
I understand about not flying a display routine in inclement weather, fog or low cloud (I am a former pilot).

In this case, then F-35 squadron had done the flyover at the actual airshow in clear weather and were returning to their temporary airbase several hundred miles away. They could not land back there due to the light rain over the base and had to be diverted to a dry base elsewhere.

R.I.P. Terry!
Thank you, I feel exactly the same way. It would be nice to see the black bar on HN.

He needed a lot of help, but a great hacker has passed, and we should remember him for his work
You realise GDPR is basically the right of keeping things you don't want to be shared to yourself?

And sources are not for the carebears. I mean, too, but they wouldn't be enforced if that would be the only point. It is so that you and I can know where to go to verify or falsify a claim. What would be your alternative proposal?

Ok, let's just give every piece of published source a numeric code or something so we can sort and search and refer too it.

Ok, nobody cares. Let's use the name of the author instead so he has interest that what he says is true and get's used truthfully. Boom, there you have the idea of copyright (in an idealised form)
We're watching a mental breakdown in real time. Gotta wonder how long it's going to be before Tesla's board asks him to step down or aside.
Why? This is a straight up upgrade over content experiments.
Sampling / selection bias, discrimination effects, self-fulfilling prophecy.
And I really really hope this is better than the Fairphone 2 in terms of function. I bought one very much excited by the prospect but to be frank it was the worst phone qua phone I've ever owned with basic functionality continuously breaking. A massive shame because the cleared up supply chain was something I really wanted to work out.
I'd never heard of the posts you mention and will forget you mentioned it. I like to remember him as a troubled man who dedicated so much of his time to showing us the silliness of our own technological orthodoxy.
You made the same mistake as Microsoft, who seemed to have put their Azure status page on Azure:

In Memoriam
Terrance "Terry Muthafuckin" Andrew Davis
Rest in Peace, 1969 - August 11th, 2018
Terry was hit by a train on August 11th around 9pm in The Dalles, Oregon, where he had been living on the streets, shortly after uploading the last video to his youtube channel [citation: https://media.8ch.net/file_store/8f7768746a7f506321a02470643...]
Furthermore, BipolarBear, var-g, and some others claim similar emails/ phone calls to the police, as well as to The Chronicle (the paper that first published the train story)
In addition, Therese Davis (Terry's sister) released a FaceBook post about his death, as well as some other poorly timed deaths.
Furthermore, it seems TheTemple, who opperated a fake Terry Davis FaceBook account, released rumors of a fake Terry's death shortly after the real death but before anyone had knowledge of it.

I pay some overseas developers way below the median faang salary, and yet, their quality of life is likely much better than your average faang employee due to the much lower cost of living.

In other words, they aren't making six figures and yet still sharing a 2 bedroom apartment with 6 other developers.
Calling string functions on null pointers is mostly undefined, which can lead to all the same problems as dereferencing. Notably the compiler can now delete "extraneous" null checks.
It isn't my guide, I'm only pointing out your comments could be put to helpful use instead of being bitter condescension only.

The websites are profiting off the visitors no matter what country they're in. If they don't want to follow the laws then block the country.
>Back then, the everyday person didn't have a clue what these companies were doing.

I don't think so. Groupon IPO'd in 2011, and it was definitely big with casual investors. I knew a lot of people who were looking at facebook when it IPO'd. Coincidentally, tech people seemed to be the biggest doom-and-gloomers for facebook. All I ever heard was how they were fudging their advertising numbers and how they would get exposed any day now.
This seems to be a mirror of the old language debate in open source. So the Librem 5 is ethical as in speech and not ethical as in beer. "Ethical" being a philosophical designation here rather than a physical designation.
Their exclusive sales distribution channel has no leverage?

Dealers have been going through a process of consolidation to the point that one group or company owns many dealerships across multiple brands. Autonation has gotten so big it's a public company.

As soon as one OEM tries to rebel, the dealers will tighten the screws across all their sales outlets, relying on their other OEM properties to carry them through. Dealers have all the leverage.

Tesla was only able to do it because they had no legacy distribution network they had to keep alive or else risk their board finding a new CEO.
If you really want to be off the record, you just have to get agreement from the journalist before you shoot your mouth off
If they were "entirely" ethical (which is a silly concept but it's already been deployed on this thread so I'll run with it), they'd be more up-front about the features and limitations of their security model. So:

* Modern phones (and all the flagship phones) have had separation between their basebands and APs for years; a modern smartphone baseband is essentially a USB peripheral.

* The two largest smartphone vendors have large, world-class security teams that do things like audit their basebands. Has Purism?

* A modern flagship smartphone will have some kind of secure enclave. Apple's has dedicated silicon, and an encrypted memory bus linking it to the AP. How does Purism's hardware security model compare?

* I don't know how much Apple and Google spend annually on outside security research for their flagship phones, but it's a lot. Who has Purism engaged to evaluate their designs and spot flaws?

If you want to use a niche phone as a fashion or political statement, more power to you. But if you try to market that phone as "transparent code is the core of secure systems", I'll take issue with that; it's neither a necessary nor a sufficient condition for security.

This phone may very well be more "fair" or "ethical" than an iPhone. But if it's not as secure as an iPhone, it's unethical to claim otherwise.
It only appears like stagnation when you look at history because the fruits of their civilization was systematically eradicated by conquerors.

See for example the Nagualism tradition which was equally as developed as Vedic philosophy. But its teachers were all slaughtered and its books burned by the Catholic Church. By the 20th century “nagual” has become a slur.

Now we look back and say memo-Americans were primitive and did nothing for tens of thousands of years:

No, they were far more advanced than Europeans, but their knowledge was dangerous to the colonial mission and therefore expunged from history.
Do you demand a registration? Or users can try before giving your their email address?

Do you have a mini tutorial (3~5 'swipes') for the first time users?

Did you try sending a personalized email to users that created an account and then stopped using?
And from a coldly pragmatic standpoint, think of the advances in tech society could have by funding people who naturally are obsessed with making tech.

This seems like a no-brainer.

That's interesting! Do you think this is because 64-bit code simply doesn't use a lot of its instruction set space (where more opcodes and instruction modes and variants are undefined and therefore not routinely used in executables), or because some of the people hand-writing 8-bit assembly actively use more opcodes than a typical compiler would, or some other factors?

Or are there are a lot of pointers in 64-bit code that contain a huge number of zeroes? :-)
Neat! Do filesystems not have a limit on maximum name length?
Sometimes... racism is just racism, not mental illness. There seems this huge rush for people to "white wash" away all of the characteristics they don't like in someone; this is intellectually cowardly. The man was a great programmer...and a racist. The two things are not mutually exclusive but when people like you choose to just gloss over this and other acts of racism it helps to continue the cycle of racist patting each other on the back and telling each other its OK, wink wink
