I still cannot believe that in order to use the latest Apple watch, you still need an iPhone 6 or later with iOS 12 or later. I was dead set on grabbing a watch once I heard what it would feature but after reading the small print, why would I spend money on getting an iPhone, then an expensive monthly plan, followed by a watch, then a separate plan for that?

Is there something I'm not seeing? This seems like a lot of money to front just to get into the device I really want but at the same time having to deal with something I don't want, plus 2 monthly plans.

Edit/update:

So as it stands now, $749 for an iPhone XR, roughly $80/month plan, $499 for GPS + Cellular watch, and $10/month for watch (based on current series 3 watch plan).

That basically breaks down to $1250 plus taxes in upfront costs to get access to a device that, for me anyway, has more useful utility to it than the phone, plus over $100/month (again, after taxes) just so I can utilize the full feature set of said watch.
Well, presumably socialists care as much about allowing people to give cheaply as do free market advocates.

I am not sure why a socialist would be opposed to lower living expenses for poor people.
OP is referring to TunesKit. There is a Mac version.

This looks like an interesting processor and 7nm sounds great, however since the process size became mostly a marketing term, is there a comparison of Apple’s process sizes to that of GlobalFoundries and Intel?
While it may be a symptom, and I'm 10,000% on board with getting money out of politics, I would still be entirely against leaving that kind of regulation to the states before any of that happens.
> if we remove corporate personhood, will businesspeople then all of the sudden become less motivated to create companies and incorporate them so they have the opportunity to make money?

It's not about opportunity for profit, but protection from loss. When Elon Musk rolled some of his money from the Paypal exit into Spacex he did it knowing that if it fails, he would only lose what he put in. You are talking about a situation where the only two options are take no risk, or risk everything. Do you really think that this wouldn't discourage people from starting a low probability of success business?
In a market, for example in this one where there is a lumbering - government backed - behemoth distorting it, it may not be viable to create new options.

Starting a new University, especially a for-profit one, and marketing it right is probably one the biggest challenges I could think of for a business.
It's tough politics for state legislatures to say "fuck you, cities, we're centralizing control in {Austin,Springfield,Albany}". They will essentially only do it if they are fearful of challenges in the next election by big money. In other words, states tend only to take over traditionally local issues when local government passes some ordinance odious to industry (see fracking in PA, Uber/Lyft background checks in Austin, etc.)
For me, it is commuter traffic and the powertrains getting much better.

Recently, I drove a little Hyundai round trip between Portland and Seattle. MPG for the trip was 54mpg! I drove upper middle of the pack, in terms of speed. Not poking around.

The decisions it made were insane good. I will sometimes data log my cars and try for peak fuel efficiency. So, I am really good at squeezing mpg out of a car. I get my communte optimized each time I use a new car. Been doing that for years. It is just a bit of fun.

That car nailed the usual oppirtunities for gains. Well done.

Honestly, I am not sure I could beat that car in a manual transmission version. At the least, doing so would require way more attention than I am willing to give.

Given the compute and greater efficiencies possible today, manual for fuel economy makes less and less sense. Electrics are coming too.

I love manual cars, but do not love them as daily drivers anymore.

Did not think it would happen. It has.
I was hoping for the iPhone SE[X]. SE form factor, but with the new display. Not sure I need face id. Er: "need".
While there was some UI/UX benefits to Inbox, it seemed mostly to be an experiment.

> In April of this year, Google released a complete redesign of Gmail that incorporated nearly all of the key features of Inbox

Still, it was nice to see some internal competition and Inbox was pretty well done.
An image format mostly stores the end result of what you made.

An office document format is basically source code.

That's why the openness of a graphic format doesn't matter, but clear specifications on how to interpret an office document make an enormous difference.
And of course, say you negotiated a license with some other content creator that says you can use their work in yours.

How can YouTube check that?
There's a huge cultural difference where people generally assume regulators are going to be fair and even-handed.

FWIW it mostly works out.
Dane here, what do you want to know?
This is not true. The standardization of the french language started with Francois I, centuries before the revolution.
Hmm, shouldn't it more be:

There's no sense upgrading an OS without maintaining backwards compatibility?

iOS is only 10 years old...
On top of that, there's exceedingly less gripping area as the screen and the edge have become one. Just having a touchscreen alone makes handling a device feel like a hot-of-the-press photo you don't want to smear with your fat fingers, now it's more like trying to hold fire without getting burned.

No, it's very much a single-user device, still tied to an iPhone.

Fall detection, heart rate abnormality detection, wouldn't seem to be the type of things you'd want to only use for a short time each day anyway. You could presumably use the ECG feature on multiple people, however.
The US tried that - it turns out it isn’t that simple.
I'm going to second this.

My usage of ad-blockers is to make webpages _readiable_. When ever the privacy aspect of it comes up its like, "well that's nice." Just the bandwidth overhead of ads alone makes it worth it.
NPM isn't specific to a browser.
Not all of us, some of us don't buy digital goods with DRM embedded.

Good on them. But what a sorry state to be in, when global warming and sea level rise related problems already are a reality in Miami or - of all places - Norfolk's naval base.
Pinning, bundling, gestures and embedded todos/reminders all make Inbox the best email app there is. Hats off to the Inbox team - you've made a great product. I'll miss it.
Eventually all divisions roll up to the same executive team. The level at which Windows and the people responsible for this decision meet is far above where the decision is or was made.

Mobile and XBOX aren't subsidiary companies. Mobile rolls up closer to Windows than the browser team does which led to the mess that is UWP and the Windows 8 (and on) start menu.

Sorry, your comment is inaccurate.
Much the same story here. Was hoping for an SE 2 for my kids as they're moving up to secondary school and hoped they could keep their iPad game progress. Android ahoy
I went to Sweden this summer and there were quite a few shops (including restaurants in the airport) that were "Card or Swish only", and one bar I went to was Swish-only. Swish is a local mobile payment system tied to Swedish bank accounts.
This doesn't seem to have stopped them having a war in Yemen with Western assistance.
It’s not just deletion; items are replaced based on “someone’s” judgment that the new item is equivalent. The later version is sometimes obviously different and often worse.

For instance, a “remastered” version can change content. A song might be completely rerecorded and sound different than the version I bought/liked.

If Star Wars teaches us anything, you can’t just rerelease something and assume it’s an improvement.

Snooze is the main reason I've been using Inbox.
Examples please? You're just making some unsubstantiated claim.
> Bundles (some made it into gmail)

Where? “Categories” were in Gmail before Inbox, but there still doesn't seem to be any way to get them bundled in the inbox the way Inbox’s primary display does, though you can set them as separate inboxes.
I strongly suspect that oil usage is going to drop drastically in the next fifty years, thanks to renewable energy and electric cars. While some oil will still be needed for other sources (for example, planes), it should mostly drop off. What’s the in having oil reserves that you don’t need?
This would be the banks moving into the cellphone market -- a good way for them to counter phone-based intrusion into their business model by WeChat/Alipay.
*foul
The claim "running on renewable energy" is false.

Yes, they really made of bunch of coins in the later part of the Roman Empire. Plus, the Romans didn't quite understand some basic economic principles and then would release new coins of higher quality to replace older ones of dubious quality. Since they didn't take back older coins, they just flooded the market with new coins, thus adding to the inflation problems of the third century.
At a certain age, the risk vs quality of life makes testosterone worth entertaining, atleast I think so.
I didn't mean to sound offended if I did. I was joking.

But I guess if I were trying to be more serious I would point out that people who develop games are extremely aware of the pain points of gamers.

Why not bring up work?

Work is an important part of our identity. It makes sense to talk about it.
I didn't say it was trivial.
The market has spoken loud and clear since 2010, when Androids bigger than iPhone became popular. iPhone dragged it's feet till 2013/2014 because they didn't want to appear conceding that they were wrong, but eventually they had to buckle.

Author here. I often find when working on rich editors that I want to see a graphical representation of the editor dom with the current selection and any hidden or hard-to-see characters. That's what ViewDom does. Unfortunately it still needs some work on mobile devices but I already find it useful.
Compete on price? They're getting more and more expensive...
Well thanks Google. You just made the necessary transition into MS Outlook land so much more easy.

My company got bought and I need to switch into MS land. Sadly. But my biggest complain was to loose my workflow from Inbox. Google killing this just kills one argument from my list. Sadly.

I like the UI. I really, really like the reminders and the bundles. And the ability to postpone a message to see it as new some later time was a big boon too.

I know - lot's of that is already in Gmail. But the UI is just so... not there. Well. Again - Google killing a great product that only a minority of people are using. It is not that nerds matter.

It's not my article, not my survey, and not my post. I'm just an interested bystander, but thanks for the clarification - I really couldn't find a/the meaning, and your comment has helped.
I think it's just because it fits with their other current brand - MacOS Mojave.
This presentation gave the this feeling more than any other I can remember. However, thinking about it now I realize this is a relatively minor event compared to many or most in the past. This was a year of an "s" iPhone model with minor spec bumps, a new lower-end model, and an updated watch with a design that is not radically different. You really can't compare this with unveilings of technological leaps or massively new products.
AFib detection is, IIRC, available even without an explicit ECG session.
"Do you want your document to work yes/no?" is a lot more likely to trick people than asking them to input a console command.
Aren't the new 7's near the same price as the old SE's? You also get something cool with the 7, no breakable home button :)
Inbox changed my relationship with email and it is unbelievably frustrating to hear it is being shuttered. I was a better digital person because of the app: I never forgot to reply, I kept years of ideas and small notes in reminders, and I could quickly triage and clear all incoming mail.

These things in particular made Inbox stand out:

* UI - simple, uncluttered mobile and desktop experience with uncomplicated keyboard shortcuts. It even had the little things like a satisfying sun animation when your inbox was empty! Desktop Gmail has a surfeit of widgets and add-on icons that perplex, distract, and confuse.

* Bundles - especially for trips: all the relevant emails I needed, in one place—unbelievably useful while traveling. All tickets and information aggregated automatically (and if not, easily added manually).

* Reminders / Compose access - fast interface for creating small notes and mailing frequently contacted people. No reminders equivalent in Gmail (Tasks are available on Desktop but not mobile) and the mobile compose on Gmail is a blank email.

* Pinning - sticky a reminder or email for easy access and reference later. I guess gmail's equivalent is marking as important or moving to inbox?

In any event, if any of the Inbox team are reading this: big THANK YOU for creating a revolutionary product that was a joy to use. I already submitted feedback through the app wishing it would continue but if there is anything further I can do please share how!
It was interesting to hear apple state that one of their goals for building products was to make them last longer in order to minimize waste. People often accuse hardware manufacturers, including apple, of intentional obsolescence. I am interested to see if they actually change anything about their process, software and hardware, to put any weight behind this claim, or if it is just marketing doublespeak.
I do both, fwiw. I'd definitely be curious to see the privacy numbers, but yea I'd wager most everyone I know blocks ads purely because the ads are obtrusive.

I run Adblock software for privacy, primarily.

Or they delete your account.

I'm not sure about Steam, but there are plenty of horror stories on the internet about "bought X on Y platform and then Y revoked account". The majority of users may never experience this, but the fact is that when you use a service like this you're at the mercy of the service provider, even for basic things like maintaining access to your account.

What I'd like to see is some sort of movement towards "if it looks like a purchase, then it is a purchase". That is, if I pay a one-time up-front free for access to something (even with DRM), we should pass legislation to make it behave like a purchase and limit the shenanigans that providers can pull. (Granted this is a very ill-formed idea and there are lots of details to work out in order to implement it.)
What's wrong with the SE1?
Tangential, but I noticed the same thing with visual information when testing data visualizations: people have a hard time processing information beyond 4-5 variables.
As a foreigner I have always struggled with association order in English (which undoubtedly happens in other languages, but not quite like this in my native Spanish). I liked your use of brackets here and, if you or others here don't mind let me present a question I've had for the longest time. Does CGI, as in "common gateway interface", parse as "[common gateway] interface" or "common [gateway interface]"? Thanks, and apologies for the digression!
The problem is that Wal-Mart doesn't pay a living wage. Are you suggesting instead that the problem is that it's possible for people earning below a living wage to get public assistance?
"Billing is complete" is a term that makes sense in the US, where the health insurance companies, equipment and pharma manufacturers dictate the final price, and the healthcare provider can get only so much from the patient + insurance, which should also cover the costs + profits considering the emergency care where those without money/insurance should also be treated.

The main difference with this experience in India and in US is that in the US, the tests and treatments needed may cost a million dollars, but I'm not asked to pay up front. In India, no matter the cost or severity of the situation, unless I pay up front in full I wont get the healthcare attention that I need (unless I have a private insurance)

Having seen what regulation did to taxis in US, and how Uber broke the transportation service industry off it's shackles, I think US healthcare market is ripe for disruption. Replicating the Indian healthcare model is certainly not ideal, but there are enough things that can be copied by the US to improve the certainty of costs for treatments and tests.
To extend this, I might make my CLI show `foo-branch (wip)` if the most recent commit is a wip. Your alias idea is golden though, definitely using this. Thank you!
E.g. we have an in-house web based ERP/CRM. Nobody is allowed to use phones at work and no one works from home. Supporting mobile is useless for our project.
It’s not without precedent though:

“copying restrictions were authorized by the Licensing of the Press Act 1662. These restrictions were enforced by the Stationers' Company, a guild of printers given the exclusive power to print—and the responsibility to censor—literary works”

Thats not always true especially with Google. Anything that helps tighten the already tight grip they have on users directly affects the bottom line.

I don't think this takes into account how helpful an action plan can be.

I would never, ever go to a gathering without forthought, self coaching, and some tips for myself lined up. There's way too much social pressure and too much of my self-esteem on the line to skip it.

And if I'm not afforded that, or it's a surprise, I'll just go to wherever with my laptop and browse HN or work on my projects instead.

People are really, really hard, especially for us with social anxiety.
some ideas

- regular gmail now has snooze too

- reminders can be set in google cal (at least on mobile) and in assistant and from search box
I agree. I'll gladly pay for a new email service that has these features. Been looking for a good reason to get off google's email (for security reasons), and this looks like a great kick in the butt to do so.
Oh, yes, there's nothing as blatant as putting a government representative on the board. The government representative just oversees the proper constitution of the board, decides whether the board is acting to "general public benefit," and decide whether the members are exercising good business judgement.

And, I guarantee, the Office of United States Corporations will be able to change the corporation's charter and direction via guidance, regulation, and oversight without the board's assent (or consent).

"Executive Chairman" is just the closest role I could come up with, but it's more like dictator or decider. Its "vote" is the only one that matters. (I'm sure there'll be some sort of administrative law court with the DoC that'll serve as appeal but it's got the same problems that all ALCs face.)
Princeton scientists discover a ‘tuneable’ novel quantum state of matter
Exactly that. I really digged the different philosophy Inbox brought to the table. You had "Inbox Zero" by creating a Task List out of your inbox. It was practically a todo list made up of emails. With scheduling, reminders, pinning and stuff. And automatically sorting into bundles like social, purchases or trips. Man I will miss the automatic bundling of all my trip related mails.
First, people would have to vote an EU-sceptic majority for their domestic parliaments. This would need to happen in a majority of EU countries. Then this majority of EU-sceptic governments could achieve a majority either in the Council or in the Commission, and propose laws to change the EU governance. Then the Parliament would have to accept these laws.

I think it would have to be the Council, it's difficult to see the Commission proposing a law that decreases the power of the Commission.
No!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Engineering doesn't mean using formal methods or specific fancy proofs, it's a systematic, disciplined quantifiable approach to software. It's described in an ISO standard and the more approachable IEEE SWEBOK.

The above is neither widely known (I only found out about it after many years of doing professional programming), nor is it necessary in order to be successful in the profession and/or make a lot of money.

Commercial software development is mostly a wild west and we're calling that craftsmanship.
Yeah, feels like the editors dropped the ball on that. Hopefully they'll fix it before the final version.

Certainly we have some users who work on the Edge team here on HN. I really would like to hear justification for implimenting these kinds of tactics. Aside from the annoyance factor, the much more serious issue is the dishonest implications that Edge is "the safer, faster browser". It seems to be directly suggesting that Edge is safer and faster than Chrome and Firefox, since this comes up when users try to install these browsers. Based on what findings is this claim being made? And how do those responsible for this justify adding this FUD?
