This is an interesting idea, but I wonder how fees would be assessed?

At one remove "source available, but pay for commercial use" seems very workable. The tricky part is handling it 3+ commercial layers out, where you're either building up a pyramid of fees or making direct payments several notches back along the chain. The first threatens to strangle commercial use past a few removes, the second might work better but opens all the "find the license holder" issues music has already.

I don't mean to dismiss the idea, rather I'm interested to think through what a low-impact way of implementing this might be.
Ah, pity.
I love my iPad Pro so much, this is a really great upgrade IMO. I'm sure I'll be planning on a way to upgrade. Only downside is that I prefer touchId to FaceId but I'm mostly switching back to a passcode in any case.
They were also very, very outdated.
It's not about the violence. It's about what is considered socially acceptable. I mean, violent lyrics, seriously? Have they ever listened to blues, or folk music?

My staff has murdered giants, my bag a long knife carries
/ For to cut mince pies from children's thighs, with which to feed the fairies.

- Mad Tom of Bedlam (traditional folk song)

And of course, there are movies, and even tv, which often have imagery more violent than any metal song (and visual, not lyrical).

So what's going on here? Why is metal "violent", and the rest of this stuff is "normal"? My answer is mutual contempt. The stylistic cues of metal - both the music and the clothing - is to say "I reject social norms". Society of norms responds in kind, saying metal is worse than, say, the latest Avengers movie or the plot of a Shakespeare tragedy - that metal is "violent", and this other stuff is "normal".
I want to try and charge a MBP off the iPad Pro!
I have the same machine and it has performed admirably over the past five years. However recently it has been locking p for two to three minutes at a time. Tends to happen either with Adobe apps loading or if a Chrome tab starts working hard.

I'd love to get another year or two out of the machine. Maybe I just need to clean it.

The most annoying issue with the machine has been the thunderbolt to dual link DVI which causes my primary monitor to not get video when booting a good portion of the time. I replace the cable annually but that seems to only help a bit. Basically that computer never gets shut off because I don't have time in the morning to plug, unplug, restart, etc. until it works. Possibly never restarting also contributes to the lock ups I mentioned.
Yes and no. I do computer vision and like photography as well. I use Jupyter notebooks extensively for computer vision, and they work pretty well for (semi) interactive manipulation of image data with code. But as a general purpose tool, it's too clunky for anything more than prototyping. I don't see them replacing darktable/lightroom anytime soon.
Also I expect CPU to be upgradeable (not officially supported of course). They claim it to be desktop CPU.

I made it clear that I didn't think there was.

You guys need to calm down and put the pitchforks away.
What, the annoyance every time you need to plug in a USB stick or a mouse you down own? Even now, after two years of USB-C macbook, it's still incredible how annoying having to look for those damn dongles is.

You do understand that you can have BOTH ports on the laptop right - see for example how Lenovo Thinkpad Carbon engineers manage to stuff usable ports on the same chasis size.
Meh. As long as you have defined deliverables between grader and student, grading programming based assignments are relatively easy. Coursera has been around longer than Jupyter has been popular, after all. (And they aren't all just multiple choice.)

Being interactive is what makes it good for teaching. But there are plenty of interactive options. And for a certain class of teaching, it is not "on rails" enough such that people will have to have a ramp up period first on Jupyter before they can really get into their topic.
Most of the places that are top tourist destinations don't have the capacity to handle such a high volume of people. It's just not how they were designed (and they had no reason to anticipate a huge surge in population and transportation hundreds or thousands of years ago).

In order for places we hold dear to avoid being trampled into the ground by people like herds of buffalo, there has to be some sort of gatekeeping that takes place to protect them. In theory, it would be fantastic if places could be open and appreciated by people from all over, but what happens in reality is more people creates more chaos. We can't expect that people will follow common behaviors and understandings because, if they did, then there wouldn't be a need for rules and oversight in the first place.

There's many beautiful places in the world and we should do our best to keep them beautiful for future generations to enjoy. Unfortunately, there's unavoidable costs to doing so, and not everyone will be able to get things the way they want. A finite reality with infinite intentions are going to end up at odds with each other.
Yeah, but there are interesting criteria: an abstract definition for theoretical re-construction of reference artifacts(I don’t know if anyone has ever actually re-built a reference without comparing it to a previously existing reference during development), using integers in the definition where it makes sense, etc.
I just wish Apple would put the internals of the iPad Pro into the Apple TV and bundle it with a decent controller. The gaming potential is massive, and they even compared it to the Xbox One during the keynote. They are squandering a massive market opportunity - I just can't work out why.
Or just generally when savings were passed on to consumers.
From what I can tell, people have a problem with the fact that you said that "blacks are genetically incapable". Why do you think it's genetic? Why not cultural, social, economic?
Secure proof-of-stake is a huge topic in blockchain research! It won’t have the same characteristics as PoW—worse in some ways, better in others—but it’s not like nobody’s thinking about it.
My dismissive attitude is due to me being professional enough to tell someone to either get some proper training or stop trying to do something they are not good at in the first place.

I have a lot of places already where recovering from a full wipe is almost not worth it. Customers with 100's of TB of data in 'prosumer' NAS devices that are chock full of regular drives.
And then there is the Zelig modeling framework for R that I can’t imagine not using after having used it.

Don’t get me wrong, I like Python well enough, and knew it before I coded R. But Python is really behind R in stats support. I’d also add the tidyverse in there for general data munging.

If I want libraries I’ll use R; if I want a programming language I love I'll use Racket or maybe Clojure; if I want some libraries and an okay programming language I’ll use Python, I guess.
Which is complicated by the fact that any addon (which many users use a dozen or more) can do this without the user knowing at all on initialization.
Your premise is wrong. This is called the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC):

The solution to pollution is more economic development, not less. This becomes even more true once demographic transition effects (like declining birth rates) start to kick in.
Tongue-in-cheek get a job in ad-tech. You'll get paid lots of money helping to sell products that are at least 4 steps away from any real economic activity, which means they are also very distant from creating anything that requires a carbon footprint. As a bonus you might be able to work from home. No driving means lower carbon footprint.

Yeah you're still helping data centers consume electricity but it's a lot cleaner than working in coal.
And, just as Fedora's mind share was really starting to take off, specifically with the HN crowd, IBM goes and buys the company.
I mean, I have a 6s which has a headphone jack and a fingerprint scanner. Happy as a clam. I have "wake on lift" on and I grab it by the bottom quadrant and touch id works 90% of the time.

I really want the better camera of the newest iphone, but I am weary of face ID and I really don't want bluetooth headphones. I already lose headphones a ton as it is.
> Also, the new Apple Pencil will only work with the new iPads; it's not compatible with previous Pros: https://www.apple.com/apple-pencil/

Because the older pros don't have a way to charge it.

Which is to me another one of those ingenious but now obvious design choices, I know the sGNote series has "wireless" charging for their stylus, but it needs to go into the device to be charged, this is so much cooler because it doesn't require that. I wish that Microsoft had thought of this for the surface pen.

Too bad that with Mojave’s release they already dropped official support for some other Mac Minis, like my 2010 unibody one. I realize you can still get it to work by rolling the dice with a 3rd party binary patch, but jeez, the thing is only 8 years old.
Regarding using std::variant for polymorphism as a work-around for not having virtual functions: I've often thought there's a bit of a mismatch between how many different derived classes (0 to infinity) an abstract base class can support, versus how many are actually needed in the average user code (anecdotally, 2 or 3 real classes and however many mocks needed for unit tests). Even something like a GUI framework may still have a manageable amount to just compile into something like a std::variant. Theoretically a whole-program analysis could even compile language-level inheritance into something like a std::variant. My point is, this mismatch between how flexible the technique we're using is versus how much flexibility we actually need, maybe indicates that we're not seeing something about how we develop software.

An analogy would be if we used only ball-and-socket joints everywhere in machines, even where a single-axis hinge would work just fine. And then just accepted that machines are inherently wobbly, rather than questioning whether extra degrees of freedom (whether needed or not) are always better than less.

I think sometimes what we really want when we use class inheritance is actually something like a std::variant where we don't have to know all of the constituent types in advance.
The problem solved by FOSS licenses is nonfree software that users cannot fully control and redistribute. The adjusted solution for the cloud era is not Commons Clause, which removes freedoms from users, it's AGPL. But no one wants to hear that because they just see FOSS as a way to make a quick buck on the backs of others.

This really silly. Literally all Android games I've downloaded that are appropriate for my 3 year old are ad free (or very minimal "out of the way" ads for other stuff from the same company). Khan Academy Kids, the PBS Kids app, the Sago Mini games, etc. These are all fine.
Very Blade Runner.
Yesod is great, and would cover most of my app, but then you get things like "search field which filters as you type" and other UI elements (even as small as "like" button) and you get into a territory where you stop having a good time.
How do you see the idea of a vs code notebook comparing to or being different from the goals of the hydrogen editor?
Love how the frame switched back to the iPhone 4's style. Feels retro and futuristic at the same time.
Do you really need special hardware support? Apple's older FDE using Intel's AES-NI instructions available on all their CPUs was plenty fast.
I figured that'd be the case, but still disappointed.
According to this, the greatest culprit isn't China. It's the industrial revolution.
IOKit and all drivers, which are most of the iOS kernel by lines of code, are C++. The windowing system of iOS and modern macOS, Core Animation, is a hybrid of Objective-C and C++. As pointed out by the sibling comment, core Android—everything Google wrote except kernel modules—is basically all C++. Vulkan is a C API (though might have a C++ implementation), but Metal is all Objective-C (with internals written in C++, I think?), and Direct3D is all COM-flavored C++.
Huh looks like most of the predictions I'd heard came true: USB-C and no home button. Wonder if they're going to do the same shift on the rest of the lines? I'm a little surprised that the iPhone Xs and Xr weren't switched over to USB-c if this is planned for the whole line. Charging the pencil attached to the side is pretty neat the old solution was very... odd and seemed pretty dangerous (having such a long lever arm on the relatively small lightning port).
12" MB: No touch ID, slower CPU, crappy last-gen keyboard that breaks all the time.
I'd second that. R and Python both have the same pre-LLVM performance issues.

I don't expect either R or Python to go away either time soon, nor would I want them to, but I would like to see people moving to things like Julia and Nim, which have the same level of expressivity, but are much more performant. I have difficulty imagining many people saying "I love programming in R and Python, but don't like Julia or Nim."

I like Python but at least with stats/numerics there isn't a big reason to move away from R except for specific libraries (especially DL stuff) or front-end integration with web-land (and even then things like Jupyter mitigate against that).
Why You Don’t Necessarily Need Data for Data Science
I haven't found this to be true at all. Brick-and-mortar stores _always_ have less selection, and I have no idea wandering around the store if a product is actually any good. When I do bother to try and buy something at a brick-and-mortar store and I research what they are actually carrying, it's often got horrible reviews, not just on Amazon, but on other product review sites. While I agree that Amazon products aren't always the best, my experience with brick and mortar is _far_ worse. Except Costco. Costco is amazing, IMHO.
I don't think you're really in disagreement. api didn't actually say FOSS started in the 90s, but that the "FOSS revolution" (which I read as the widespread use of FOSS licenses) did. And that statement still works if you read Free as "in speech".
That's a story that's often repeated here on HN. But it doesn't hold up much under scrutiny. American pasture lands, for instance, are not normally arable lands (cannot be used for cropland). And meat animals use less resources per pound of protein that vegetable sources. Certainly less plowing.

I'm always stunned by the idea that somehow raising millions of cattle is destroying the planet, yet the millions of buffalo that roamed the prairie before we arrived were natural and therefor good.
USB-C port. Great!
Best way to avoid this is to use an app. No need to login, and some like Apollo even provide ways to "subscribe" to subreddits without logging in.
I don't expect this product line to be the most popular mac product line, but it does have it's users.

* A mac is required for iOS development, so it can be used as a build server for teams working in Xamarin. Possibly used in other cross platform mobile development workflows. (Who: mobile developers, Why: to run builds)

* People that need more I/O than a macbook pro can support. In addition to the I/O a MBP has this has 10GB Ethernet, 2 USB A, HDMI, and a dedicated power slot. It's also significantly cheaper than the iMac Pro, while also having 10GB Ethernet. (Who: People working in video, photography, and anyone that heavily uses a 10GB network. Why: Better connectivity)

* Groups with existing macos server applications that want a headless server with cheaper/newer hardware than the Mac Pro or old Mac Mini.
(Who: companies with macos server programs running. Why: It's newer better hardware)

* People that want a very small computer.
(Who: Everyday consumers. Why: Small footprint. It's the cheapest Mac for people that like MacOS but don't the need portability of a macbook or the monitor of an iMac.)
I really like where the iPad is going. I play Civ 6 on a Pro with an Apple Pencil all the time, and I wish the screen was bigger. It is now, but that price... I could get a gaming rig for the cost of a 12in. My only question is where is the mini with FaceID?
That's a good question. Do you think Steve's opinion on gaming is still baked into the company?
Just looking at those product photos I am pretty confused. How is that a display that "goes from edge to edge"? There is bevel on each side...
The device is very nice, but it does not provide enough of a value proposition for me to want to buy one.

It looks great for consuming content (though the focus on gaming when this device is supposed to be for professional use is odd), but the operating system itself limits the ability to produce anything more than trivial content or development.

No I did not. Read the statement carefully, the word "ethical" was added in your mind, it isn't in the statement I made. Black people have lower IQs. Expecting them to have population proportional representation in universities, medical professions, etc is holding them to a standard they can not achieve, through no fault of their own, and it causes serious racial animosity and conflict. This is a real problem. There is no indication that the "problems" proponents of the "racism as the root of all evil" belief keep bringing up are actually real.
> Wait, I think that IS What you're trying to do.

Yes it is. Because it's irrelevant to the discussion at hand. You want to start a thread on Amazon dodging taxes, do so and let the community decide if it's a worthy topic.

Hijacking a thread that is almost entirely unrelated to the issue you want is why you're getting downvoted.

> No it isn't. Please don't willfully misrepresent someone else's view point just so you can easily defeat it. I think there's a word for that actually...

You used so many words that have no place in this it's stunning. I didn't misrepresent your views, I didn't even talk about your views, I'm VERY explicitly talking about you bringing up a topic that's entirely irrelevant to the discussion at hand.

> No one said they were dodging taxes. Why are you attempting to willfully misrepresent other people's arguments?

Keep using willfully represent over and over and over until people believe it's true. You sound like a politician.
Any add-on added by the user is already executing in the client's space and has zero need for a vulnerability like this.

It's like saying that any program running on my computer could exploit a remote code execution bug... I mean, yes, it could. But why would it, when it already has local execution rights?
You don't use Jupyter notebooks in production; they are super useful for pitching ideas to clients/bosses and doing some early prototyping. I feel sorry for anyone that has to work with "pure data scientists" that have no clue about software engineering practices...

Why Organisations Nowadays Want an Analytics Platform
It lacks a controller, though. And the "best" controller is missing three inputs you'd expect (L3/R3 "stick click" buttons and a select button).
> That's why you should always negotiate hard on the base salary and signing bonus. These are guaranteed money not like RSU's.

The two FAANGs I have personal experience with aren't very flexible when it comes to base salary, though. In both cases, during offer negotiations, I was told the base salary is strictly tied to levels of seniority in the organizational hierarchy, so there's effectively no room for maneuvering there.

RSUs were much more flexible, especially after the first couple of years.

RSUs were also a more important part of the compensation. My initial package in one FAANG was about 55% RSUs, 45% cash, and I was told that going forward my RSU component will increase even further, and in particular most bonuses and raises will be granted in RSUs.

So I'm not sure "negotiating hard" is a viable strategy in FAANG compensation discussions. They can be quite generous with RSUs, but cash policy is often strict and inflexible.
At least a few of those have evolving technical solutions. We can all travel in a more sustainable way if we can do full body VR immersion wherever we want to go. We don't need cars if we have fleets of autonomous vehicles to pick us up and drop us off wherever we want to be on a whim. We can all live in the country if you don't need to commute either yourself or property to and from where you live (the infrastructure to maintain sparse development is much more a hindrance on low density living than just building dwellings). And we can eat all the meat we want if we are growing it ourselves from cultured cells rather than having to make the rest of the animal for years to get just the muscle we want to cook.

No, those aren't the experiences we have today, but I'm not consuming all my performance entertainment as live acts in a theater because doing so would have been unsustainable for the scale you want to produce at. We evolved the technology into film and later television and now we watch what we want, when we want, where we want. The marginal cost of that entertainment went from stadium sized buildings with productions that took years to refine and practice with crews and casts in the hundreds able to perform for a thousand at most to millions of people being able to repeatedly enjoy hand crafted frames and sounds for the marginal cost of cents of power and wire.

A hundred years from now mankind won't lament missing out on driving any more than most people don't crave horseback riding today. Because we innovate our way to better solutions.

And its insane hubris to think mankind is anywhere close to the potential limits of physical science that we won't dramatically, in ways we can't even comprehend or imagine, refine our condition in the decades to come, and for centuries thereafter if we at last that long.
Thankfully, there are third party apps that are great.
I haven't given it a great deal of thought, but I'd wager Apple doesn't want to risk developers prioritizing the controller/TV experience over touch/iPad.

Much like Apple feels that the touch interface is a different beast than trackpad/mouse, and combining them would be a mistake.
The question is, does Trump know this? :)
