Your phrasing was ambiguous. For a moment I thought you meant https://qntm.org/abolish. Still, you can't remove the past, and since the names carrying disambiguating meaning (notably DST changes, is UTC+01:00 CET or BST?) even if you remove them for the future the past still exists so you still have to handle them.
The argument would go that if the radio has total capacity x and each user is allocated capacity y, then only x / y users should be allowed to join the service, otherwise it is "over selling".

It is a super straight forward model, but obviously much more expensive to provide. I imagine most users would be happy to pay 1/10 of the cost to get a service that might drop to 10% performance in the worst case, as long as it doesn't happen too frequently.

The problem is not with throttling per se (it’s a laws of physics after all!) but not disclosing and/or misleading customers to think there is an unlimited stable bandwidth and/or not disclosing in clear words when, how and how much throttling will be triggered.

Agreed - Improving SQL should be a research focus eg new options to make it more logical such as FROM clause before SELECT clause (much better for tooling) Add Immutable options (to make it truly functional), optimize for Optane persistent memory, add native GUI/ HTML support (like Foxpro) to make it much easier to wire up IO between tables and display/input. Add NOT IN Foreign Keys.
PostgreSQL desperatly needs auto refersh and incremental Materialized Views and BiTemporal system/app timestamps.
SQL is already an incredible Logical functional language that operates at a much higher abstraction level than mainstream languages, it could be even more amazing, with not that much effort/cost relative to any other routes I can think of - to get to more human friendly, more expressive, faster, more reliable, app development tools.

Batteries don't do that great with the limited metals problem either.

The bigger issue for railroads is range; current battery operated trains have a range of about 40km, whereas this hydrogen train has a range of 1000km. You could have charging stations at every station, but then you run into issues if the distance between stations is more than 40km, or if the charging equipment at a station becomes broken.
Gasoline was originally a waste product.

If hydrogen takes a life of its own that may not be a great thing.

> No more walled gardens

I somewhat doubt this, though. Already, Mastodon instances can block other instances from showing up on theirs. Likewise, a major instance could simply block all other instances from showing up on theirs, or the other way around. Walled gardens can arise when single players become as large as Twitter is, and that isn't prevented (though perhaps somewhat obstructed) by federation.

the newer OS version using more ressources than before?

My iPhone 6 (purchased April 2015) ran great with iOS 10. I stupidly upgraded to iOS 11 and it’s now so slow that I loathe using the thing at all. I know I should have less screen time. The degree to which iOS 11 destroyed my phone’s performance has made the prospect sound delightful rather than a chore. That I’d be gaining something rather than losing something.

That Apple made iOS 11 installable on the iPhone 6 is the definition of a cynical planned-obsolescence money grab. It has single-handedly made me want to use my phone less, and to resent Apple enough that I have no intention of upgrading to a later model iPhone.

Maybe iOS 12 fixes this.

Ask HN: What are the best resources to learn Product Management?
There are so many online MOOC courses for most of the topics, but Product Management is a field where I have never see a quality course or collection of reading materials. There are many articles on Medium these days, but not all of them are good and you can't create a flow out of that for an optimal learning experience. There was a very good resource https://startuplaunchlist.com related to startups and somewhat related to PM which I enjoyed a lot. Do you guys know of any good resources which is properly categorised, be it text, video, etc?

Are you using "throttling" to mean the same thing other people do? When people say "throttling" they refer to the deliberate/artificial action to that effect, not the natural throughput limitation.
If cell providers advertises their services as "Always 100 Mbps guaranteed" that would be a problem, but do they really?

Because that is not how wireless communication works. E.g. in LTE the user is scheduled both in frequency and time. The operator has a certain frequency spectrum that gives a certain maximum transmission rate (one user getting all frequencies and time).

The scheduling happens based on (amongst other things) signal to noise ratio and priority of each user and their traffic types (voice, data, etc). The goal of the operator is to maximize the overall capacity of the network. This is beneficial for the user as well.

I think the problem in the US is the lack of competition. Not net neutrality issues. In places where this works well you just change operator if you are not happy with your current one. This way the provider is free to experiment with how to run their network and everyone benefits.

Also, video absolutely obliterates a wireless radio. Just to keep with the example you mentioned, a wireless radio doesn’t necessarily breakdown into 1/10 per user for 10 users. 2-3 users could flood the connection, the building interference can eat 20-30% off the top, different cell phone models may have stronger radios etc. Then throw in a bunch of 4K ultra hd streams and those contract terms stop making any sense.

I dont really think this is a good idea. It boils down to when do you want the sun to be up? 4 in the morgning to 21 in the night, or 5 in the morning and 22 in the night? Since the majority of the people like to be up later at night than waking up early, it is better for everyone to turn the clock one hour. Its better for people. Its wellfare.

The clock is turning an hour automaticly any way. Its not a big deal for the clocks, but it is a big deal for the poeple seeing less day light.
Thank you for your answer. I've heard the "it's an unchanging gravitational field" argument before, but it doesn't really explain the question for me. If the suns gravity is a field, then why is the movement of that field (which is locked to the suns mass I presume) instantaneously "known" to the earth, so the earth "free falls" in the curved space time in the right direction holding its orbit. Why doesn't the earth, at 1 au, free fall into the space time curvature that was created by the sun 8 minutes ago? It certainly appears the earth "knows" where the sun is now, which would imply instant information travel.

I also think you contradict yourself in your last statement, in which you say that the gravitational field of the sun does take 8 minutes to reach earth.

Sorry for the late response. The biggest difference to my eyes is the color choices. Although this was many years ago, I recall that the nextstep color scheme was very muted, tending to scale of grays rather than contrasting colors. The wikipedia screenshot seems to confirm my memory.

The nextspace screenshot shows apps and icons with very bright colors. Nowadays icons and apps tend to be colorful, and since they follow different color schemes, a collection of them has a high probability of clashing (e.g. the gray Gimp next to the orange Firefox.)

Nextstep could maintain a consistent aesthetic, I think, because: 1) there were not many apps available on it as there are now on nextspace, and 2) a single company, which had a notoriously style conscious CEO, produced these apps. Nowadays, apps are produced by different groups, with different tastes (let alone skills) in designs.

Nextspace faces the problem of maintaining the muted and clean style of nextstep, in a more diversified world. That's what I was reacting to.
Nah. Having kids is a choice. If you're going to view/treat them as a burden, just don't do it.

IMHO, machine learning is a tiny aspect of the issue. The main issue is that, strangely, C is still the desert island language (first hit: http://www-cs-students.stanford.edu/~blynn/c/intro.html). The is a huge intimacy between the C language and CPU, they have evolved together during the many years of Moore law. I think there should exist a far better language to access hardware. linux kernel should migrate to this language. And the intimacy between OS and hardware should drive CPU (and GPU) toward better directions. Maybe I am dreaming.

While I agree with Patterson, I'd be careful with the expectations though. Computational engineering is highest tech. Whatever purpose, whatever specialization, processors are the central domain in modern technology and engineering. It would still take decades to find a feasible approach to make new architectures work (in silicon). But I agree that it is an exciting time, I want to see new clever architectures emerging, competing and be used for different purposes.
You're right, I don't think this particular question was set up. And I don't blame Gabriel for answering.

What I wanted to say is, that as a reader the answer to the general question "Is product X good?" by the owner/creator/inventor of said product, adds little value. Because obviously the creator knows a lot about his/her product but is also very biased. And I can probably find the same arguments and thoughts somewhere on the product page itself.

I agree with the general idea that the most important skill is managing people, not technical, with engineering management. However, my advice is to never go full manager. If you can, jump in from time to time and help dig the ditches.

I like the idea of playing a supporting role on the team. You're there to help the team get done what needs to get done. Most of the time that's going to broader organization meetings, planning, providing growth opportunities etc. However, when there is technical work that needs to be done, I'll gladly jump in and help out as much as my technical skills allow me to. By the same token, if I'm overbooked, out of the office, etc, I'll ask my team to help out with organization meetings, planning and similar activities. I want folks to know that we all play a role and have skills that allow us to participate in some activities more effectively than others, but at the end of the day our greater success comes with our ability to execute as a team, not as individuals.
