If I remembered correctly, windows phone users can use web version of YouTube just fine. The app was not developed by Google and based on undocumented API.

I'm not speaking for Google but if I'm building a streaming app, I won't like other people make "clones" without my permission or review. Reasons are:

1. Customers who meet bugs on these clones may blame me but it's actually bugs in these clones.

2. Compability may be a pain because I have no idea how these clones use my "API". This happens a lot when Mint is scraping webpages for data and fails on webpage redesigns. "something appears to be working" is a light year away from "what guaranteed to be working".

3. One solution may be building the official app for windows phones but it just doesn't financially work out. WP never got traction to justify the cost of migrating a big app like Youtube to some totally different platform. Might be chicken and egg problems though.

What do you think can be solutions for the problems above? Standardization might help but online video site is not something you can easily carve out a "standard".

Android itself doesn't need it. It collects less data than iOS. If you're talking about apps on Android that use differential privacy, there are plenty, and their implementation of differential privacy is better than Apple's. https://www.macobserver.com/analysis/google-apple-differenti...

The hardest part of reading (not-simplified) German for me, as a sadly monolingual English speaker, is the word order. At times you have to sort of keep a mental stack of all the dative / accusative case nouns as you read, and then as you encounter the verbs at end of the sentence you kinda pop the nouns off that stack and piece together what's happening.

Reading Spanish has no such difficulty for me. The word order is much more like in English.

The absence of foreign loans in German is not due to being "resistant to frivolous changes". It's due to an explicit reform effort to root out ubiquitous Latinate loans. You can do the same in any language, limited only by how much control the government has over the way people talk.
This resonates.

Along similar lines - my business partner and I often discuss a customer test for our consulting businesses: are we trying to build & sell technology to experts in technology or are we trying to build and sell technology to those who aren't versed in it but desperately need it for some aspect of their business.

fwiw, our conclusion is often that the later is the right answer.
I apologise, I thought that was a fair question and civil...

The missing context from another comment was:

> ... amount of institutional inertia I've come up against while trying to get any part of our Development or Production stack shifted over to Kubernetes, which I consider myself fairly expert in, I think you'd understand that "containers on Solaris" is not going to go over any better for me than containers on GNU/Linux,

Both SmartOS and GNU/Linux are open platforms, so it really wasn't fair of me to accuse a person of shilling for Oracle. I think I understand.

(That wasn't my intention, but if you read it that way, that's my mistake.)
I'm German but have been living in the US for 25 yrs and my verdict is that the German grammar is overly and unnecessarily complicated. The pronunciation, on the other hand, is sane, which cannot be said of English.

Apple is going to have a good ecosystem of ARM software very soon. The whole reason they pushed their Marzipan initiative with the ability to seamlessly port iOS (ARM) apps to macOS (x86) is so that they can also do (iOS >>> macOS) on ARM.

By asking developers to port from iOS apps, they have the side effect of getting developers to implement "fully featured" apps, just with a mobile UI. Adobe has already promised they'll be doing this with photoshop and Illustrator, releasing in 2019.

Others will follow suit. Not only will this strengthen the feature set of iOS apps, but it will strengthen the iPad Pro app ecosystem, and apple will simply link the iOS and Mac App Stores, allowing for "universal" apps.

Marzipan will translate them to x86/64 and later when Apple switches to ARM, Marzipan will simply keep these apps on ARM, and change their UI to match.

If you've been watching Apple closely over the last few years, you'll notice that they're consolidating their API's across macS and iOS. Things like Metal and AppKit and UIKit and so on are beginning to converge. This is all setting the stage for Marzipan.

They announced the "first half" of what they intend during the WWDC 2018 keynote. But the second half will be announced only after they reveal ARM Macs, and then "surprise - all the iOS apps you see now are available here, too. They automagically get UI adaptations for mac!"
It might be worth mentioning who Dave House is, as I certainly didn't know the name. To quote his bio at the Computer History Museum:

Dave House began his career in 1965 as a computer designer at Raytheon Computer and Communications Division. In 1968 he joined Honeywell Computer Control Division and in 1972 became director of computer development at Microdata. In 1974, House joined Intel Corp., and in 1978 became general manager of the company's Microcomputer Components Division. Over the next 13 years he lead the organization that developed the company's leading microprocessor product line, including the 386, 486, Pentium and Pentium II Processors, and grew that business from $40M to $4B per year. He also managed the team that developed the highly successful “Intel Inside” marketing program; the words “Intel Inside” were his.

After Intel, he went into networking, becoming the Chairman/CEO of Bay Networks, President of Nortel Networks, and Chairman/CEO of Allegro Networks. Currently he's Chairman of Brocade.

In my 25+ years of using Excel, here's what makes a pro:

1. Someone who knows how to use two dimensional TABLE()s and vector functions.
2. Someone who can implement an imperative convergence (such as Newton/Raphson or non-plug-in goal seek)
3. Someone who can audit their dependencies and not shit out dozens of unused vars
4. Someone who knows the limit is 10 sheets and 20MB. :)

Visual Basic and shortcuts do not a pro make. VB makes Excel =less= usable, IMHO because now there is an extra dimension to debugging that requires understand each Macro and what it touches: it breaks the entire philosophy of show formulas + auditing.

Despite appearance, German is very illogical language full of idioms and exceptions one has to master. Also, even natives usually don't master the full extent of language and the overbearing nature of language with its need for precise use of words/formulations specific to a given situation often leads to strong reliance on syntax/appearance of complexity. You can see it in typical German philosophy, where the language gets in the way in order to satisfy its constraints, often missing the point, being trapped in its structures, unable to formulate way out due to structural constraints inherent in the language; being overly rational and weakly emotional, suppressing a whole dimension of humaneness. Thanks, but no thanks!

English does this a lot with borrowed words too, like orangutan coming from Malay orang (man) hutan (forest), so man of the forest.
That doesn't negate the point exactly because older vehicles have fewer safety features, and we know that those safety features prevent accidents. Take a look in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_vehicle_fatality_rate_in... and see that the fatality rate has dropped by a factor of 2 in the last 40 years. Features like ABS are a big chunk of that.

For example ABS systems reduce accident rates by

Amazon has a program called Multi-channel fulfillment. But there are significant drawbacks to sellers and marketplaces:

1. It comes in an Amazon box. Large marketplace have started penalizing sellers for that.

2. They don't integrate into fast shipping programs that act like Prime, as an example eBay eGD.

You are right that eBay and Walmart can offer this service, but most sellers will sell in multiple places, and splitting inventory across different facilities is expensive, inefficient, and difficult to manage. Isolationism in this market hurts everybody.

The obvious solution to rural broadband, is to accelerate the deployment of LEO satellite broadband like Starlink. It's radically cheaper than deploying fiber to the home across areas with population densities of 10 or 20 people per sq km. The cost to deploy fiber all over rural America is crazy vs the size of the customer base that will use it (more so given rural America continues to shrink).

As a taxpayer I'd be fine with the US Government providing loans to be split between several companies (SpaceX, OneWeb, etc), to be put exclusively into making this happen in three or four years instead of seven or eight. Have any relevant government agencies assist in accelerating it, whether NASA or DARPA.
Is it laziness or efficiency? It's, in my read, a heuristic (he even uses that word) for deciding whether it's worth spending time reading the docs before looking at the actual code, to see if it does what he wants.

It's about how he should best spend his time, which is finite, after all. Paid time even more so.

For ES6 Safari has some of the best support of all browsers other than Chrome: http://kangax.github.io/compat-table/es6/

Most features you are talking about are not yet Stage 2 supported. Chrome went ahead and built a lot of these features without full TC29 support. Many service worker features are still Stage 0/1. When it hits Stage 2 safari will gain support.

I think the malice attributed to Apple is somewhat earned due to momentum in the PWA space, but is mostly just do to obeying TC29 stages.

Probably table representation. It's relatively hard to implement something similar using text format. You can have row for every unit in the game with columns corresponding to various characteristics. It looks very natural in Excel, but it would require quite a lot of formatting and errors with text file. Also Excel could have formulas which might be useful somewhere and supporting formulas in config file is another level of complexity and almost certainly it'll be worse than Excel.
Require registration. Block VPNs (as the people doing it are more likely trying to hide their true IP). If someone wants to use a VPN, require documenation. Be open about your limits.

Paying for faster shipping from Ali Express totally kills the price advantage, which I think is really the only advantage to buying things there.

Example of Raspberry Pi 3 Camera, product price $4.52, shipping to the US:

Shipping prices (no free option)

$2.84 - 19-39 days

$38.16 - 12-21 days

$40.53 - 8-16 days

$46.03 - 6-13 days

Which one of those would you pay for?
This article is one of the weirdest I've ever read as a dane. We have a vat refund system, that paid out 120 billion danish kroner to companies that weren't meant to have those 120 billion danish kroner.

It was made possible because the audit of every vat refund was just one guy, and that was ridiculous, but those 120 billion still exited our treasury.

It's kind of easy to prove wrong doing on vat, if your company hasn't registered a single transaction, then your company simply isn't owed any vat. Yet the article seems to want to make this complicated...

Why is that?
True. German sticks auxillary verbs in the middle of a sentence and main verbs at the end. Knew a guy from Lufthansa who joked that sometimes he would attend lectures with orators delivering long sentences and sometimes wouldn't know what was being referenced until the end of a sentence when the main verb showed up two minutes later.

Drunk driving reduction the majority of that.

In 1982 the fatality rate per 100,000 people was: 18.969, in 2016 it was 11.59. By comparison Drunk driving fell from 9.1 per 100k to 3.3 per 100k in 2016.

As an approximation drunk driving is ~5.8 and everything else is ~1.58. (Clearly some of those non drunk driving related saved lives also saved drunk drivers, but it's still ~3x as important as everything else put together.)

Lawmakers and regulators are already cognizant that regulations have costs; they hear that from everybody already. Often they are, surprise, legally required to consider it.

I agree it would be better if industry self-regulated. But they didn't. e.g.: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/router-crapfe...

If this were a problem where only the device owners were harmed, I wouldn't care a lot. Market mechanisms would take care of it. But here bad vendor security is imposing large negative externalities on the rest of the world. If government is for anything at all, it's for making people experience the consequences of their own actions instead of inflicting harm on others. This is not a perfect regulation, but it's better than nothing. Hopefully device-makers will take this as a warning shot a and get their acts together.

I think this conflates typically verbose academic/philosophical writing with German itself. Many great old philosophers came out of Germany, in a time where writing obtusely to make a point was in vogue (in English, too, not just German), so this may add to the perception of German philosophy needing to be contorted.

I've read refreshingly concise modern works in both and English and German and can assure you that style is the writer's fault, not the language's.
Respectfully, I think what you're doing here is taking what you know about the Sokal hoax and applying it directly to this hoax. It's hard to blame you, since that's what the media did as well. But, while the papers we're talking about were fabricated and often did make ludicrous arguments, they weren't "postmodernist critique", and, as I said, many of them included data and plausible methodology. Orwell wouldn't have much to say about them.
