Not fully. Really what happened is they did a re-org that gave them Google Cloud as an umbrella brand including GCP, Google Maps Platform (this new version of Google Maps as a commercial service), Chrome, Android, G Suite...

The bit of Maps Platform integration for management of the billing and API layer was called out in the announcement blog as an integration with the console specifically, and the docs and other branding around Maps Platform remain distinct from GCP still in excessively subtle ways that Googlers pay more attention to than everyone else, like hosting the docs on developers.google.com instead of cloud.google.com and having Platform in its name separately from Cloud Platform.

This stuff makes sense to Googlers not only because of the org chart but also because Google has a pretty unified API layer technology and because Google put in a lot of work to unify billing tech & management. Reusing that is efficient but not always clear.

But you're right to be confused. Their branding is a mess and always has been. This is the same company that thought Google Play Books makes sense as a product name.

Google's product / PR / comms / exec people are very bad at understanding how external people who don't know Google's org chart and internal tech will perceive these things, or at least bad at prioritizing those concerns.

They live and breathe their corporate internals too much to realize this. Some Google engineers and tech writers realize the confusion but pick other battles to fight instead (like making good quality products).

They do at least document which services are subjected to the GCP Deprecation Policy (Maps is not there): https://cloud.google.com/terms/deprecation

As for what products are actually part of GCP, it's the parts of this page that aren't an external partner's brand name, aren't called out separately like G Suite or Cloud Identity or Cloud Search, and aren't purely open source projects like Knative and Istio (as opposed to the productized versions within GCP), with the caveat that the level so far of integration into GCP of Google acquisitions like Apigee, Firebase, and Stackdriver varies depending on per-company specifics: https://cloud.google.com/products/

G Suite and Cloud Identity accounts can be used with GCP, just like any other Google accounts. They are part of Google Cloud but not Google Cloud Platform.

Hope I waded through the mess correctly for you. :)

> Anyone can implement the language spec.

No. So far, only Microsoft has implemented the language spec and as long as no one else does it, no one can. Prove to me that "anyone can implement it" by pointing to someone who has done it, instead of relying on some theoretical "it could be done" fantasy.

The amount of effort, time, energy needed is just not something anybody else outside of MS is able or willing to put into implementing the language spec.

I also find it weird that on HN where normally people are very skeptical of any argument without data backing it, when it comes to this outage, people are assuming everything written here affects everyone.

Perhaps some of the issues are localized? Perhaps it's even user error (it happens, you know?). But because a small amount of HN users say "it's everywhere!" then suddenly people reach for their pitchforks.

Sometimes we just don't have all the information.

The reason you need emulation is not to hook the syscall instructions, even if that is sort of in the same general area as true: it is because the code for these binaries is not shipped with the app and signed. If you were going to limit this app to the code that was shipped with the app you could also just replace the syscall instructions as part of the same pass that signed the binaries. Even if you didn't need to hook the syscall instructions, it is the lack of code signature on these files that is requiring the emulator.

You are coming to mostly correct conclusions here, but frankly all of your explanations for this are confusing and most of them are incorrect :(.

I believe that the title sounds more dramatic than the story actually is. A shifting regulatory environment is unpleasant, but not unusual for companies of certain scale, or certain industries. Ask any internationally operating bank.
I've been integrating with this recently, it's a very useful tool. They are very responsive to developer requests. We're trying to replace svg-edit as our editor, and this is working out well. Although it is paid (which is fine for us as we're a commercial entity).
Inaccurate title

I don't think that's the case here, I can see the whole shaft rotating, and also could easily touch the joints where it is connected at both ends. But the tech they are using is sometimes more than 20 years old I guess, so maybe new ones are required to have protections. Anyway, I am treating those things with a healthy kind of respect.
This is a bit pedantic, I know, but you mean the UK, not England.

It doesn't take any dedication at all, it only takes address exhaustion. Which is precisely why it took so long.

Because there is zero incentive for Telcos.

Only if you don't use banks or insurances.
To be fair, every technology is compare against the previous. So compared with using a library, or a BBS, yes easier. As some else mentioned, there was less online to discover.
The banks and multinationals will be fine. The employees who find their jobs/departments have been relocated, the local service providers who benefited hugely from the larger companies' business less so.
Ask HN: What are some good resources to learn about NVM?
I was skimming through conference papers like ATC, OSDI, ... and there are many papers to build databases on top of NVM.

Unfortunately I'm failing to find a useful resource to learn the structure of NVM (in particular the byte addressable interface). There are a couple of NVM libraries out there with in-cohesive documentation.

Traditional file systems on top of NVM using block-level interface is not an issue. Bare in mind that I'm a CS student with minimal electrical engineering knowledge. Also, I have a fairly good knowledge of SSD internal design (FTL, ...)
That is probably using MMS, which never really took off (at least in IE)
The UK economy is disproportionately based on global finance, so it's a bigger deal than it might be somewhere else.

Most companies are well known to be super short sighted, especially large ones. If it makes sense to get out of the UK to make the next quarter targets they will do it. Not surprising one bit.
Financial services is a huge part of the uk economy, so banks are quite a big deal.
Freedom of association for employers and co-workers is not punishment.

I should absolutely be able to be free to not associate with or choose not to work with racists or people who get ugly tattoos or people who listen to Linkin Park or any other adult decision they undertake freely. Being able to decide the types of people I want to be around is my and everyone else’s right.

Discrimination based on built-in traits is bad (and stupid), such as skin color or sex or national origin, but voluntary choices undertaken by an adult (e.g. a decision to write the service in PHP, or to join the KKK, or to take up arms against strangers for pay, or to worship the god of Abraham) can and should be actively used to separate people into different groups that one prefers or avoids.

On the other hand, good to hear about. Our team had 8 Europeans (including me), and while 6 of them left after Brexit (including me), I know a few people who are still on the fence. Life has largely gone on as normal, and the lack of talent has driven compensation up * . But unless you're a contractor making hay while the sun shines, it's good to keep things like this in mind.

FWIW, without nitpicking your language (as it is clear what you are saying, and the question is a totally legitimate one), the answer is "yes: that would absolutely be possible".

> When Apple says "scripts" and "code" they are absolutely and clearly talking about the code that is being interpeted, not the interpreter itself (which they call "interpreters").

They can't be, because all of these are lumped together in the category of "must be bundled with the app".

> Apple seems to want to allow apps that are able to be used for teaching people to program. That is not the stated purpose of iSH nor is it how most people seem to want to use iSH.

I mean, you could repackage this as "learn the Almquist shell".

> You just really really seem to want to believe that this is OK based on this clause

Because that lets it be on the App Store!

> you are past the point of "stretching" and are now just seemingly purposefully refusing to understand Apple's restriction and also seem to not understand that this isn't some black and white "letter of the law" sort of thing but a massive grey area of "what is Apple's intention here" (which includes wanting to avoid creating a little app ecosystem inside of another app, which the binary package manager here clearly does).

I think we both understand Apple's restriction on alternative App Store environments, and I agree with you that the software as it currently stands will likely never pass actual App Store review with apk bundled with it. But I still think it's possible for it to be approved provided it shipped without it, even if getting a package manager onto it would be possible because it it exposes the filesystem through iTunes file sharing, as well as allows for downloading one. As you've mentioned, this is really about perception: if Apple thinks you're trying to make an "App Store" inside your app, they'll quickly shut it down, but if you make it annoying but possible to do something like this in-app they might buy the argument that it wasn't your primary intention.

Author here. Thank you for providing the file, I will debug it. I must admit that I spent almost no time to think about memory management, and my test files are way smaller. I guess this will be a debugging session. :-)
Well considering that's one of UK biggest sectors, then yes it is.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t the financial industry the primary reason London has become extremely unaffordable for normal people?

Is it possible that the negative economic effects of Brexit will have positive cultural ones, by lowering prices and allowing for more non-financial workers to live there?
Signal has a few orders of magnitude fewer users and uses tens of millions of dollars per year.
You still don't seem to get it: this project happens to ship with an Alpine Linux userland, but you can just build it with Ubuntu Core instead, it will just be insanely large. Alternatively, you can just download Ubuntu Core and either replace the Alpine parts or put it in a chroot. Steam isn't going to run because it doesn't have a graphics layer, but it isn't because this is somehow--and I mean right now as it is installed on your phone without even having to reinstall it--in any way tied to Alpine Linux.
Moving countries is not that easy though. Leaving the EU means loads of additional paperwork vs now. You need someone who understands and is legally responsible for VAT. You didn't need that before. You need to know how to fill out all kinds of custom forms. There used to be a large amount of custom agents for that, you don't have them in the amount you need because they weren't needed for decades. Loads of companies won't know what to fill out.

BBC went to the Swiss border to transport an exhaust from Switzerland to UK via Germany. Although this has required loads of documentation for many years the custom agent in Switzerland mentioned there's problems with the documentation in about 20% of the cases. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hWQ0T10v6Y. The terminals/crossings aren't designed for that! There's not enough space for 20% of the trucks to wait an additional 2 hours.
I will be friends with anyone interesting. Especially if that's someone whose opinions are the opposite of mine. That would be fascinating. Let anyone judge me for that as they will.

Let it be publicly known that I'm friends with Trump voters, Hillary voters, Gary Johnson voters, and even someone who once voted for Nader.

Apple shipped a laptop with only 1 USB port. I'm not holding my breath.
The infrastructure has always been the easy part, as long as the company is willing to pay for multiple datacenters.

Then you realize a lot of software and databases can only run from a single instance, zero support for multi regions, and you're not gonna to rewrite everything and resiliency just can't happen.
For one, it's not, because PMTUD and stuff.

More importantly: You are missing the point. Great, you have encapsulated your protocol in UDP. Now, what do you notice? Your ISP is throttling your protocol because for some braindead reason their traffic management has categorized it as some sort of unimportant protocol, probably P2P or something. Or they just throttle UDP in general, because who uses UDP besides DNS and VoIP? So, high bandwidth UDP usage is obviously a DoS, and we don't want that! If you are unlucky, maybe they even shut off your server because it is obviously part of a botnet?

OK, so enough people complain to their ISPs that SCTP over UDP doesn't work. What happens? Exactly, ISPs start putting in rules that "recognize SCTP over UDP". So next time you want to try out a new protocol or extend SCTP somehow, you run into the exact same problem.

The difficult part isn't stuffing bytes into UDP packets, the difficult part is making sure it actually works reliably and fast over the public internet.
Speaking as someone who wants Scoland to become independent and join the EU, at this point it seems clear that the UK is leaving the EU (or - very small possibility - the UK is not leaving the EU).
> I tried the TestFlight and while a basic environment was present a lot of things that'd make for a useful environment didn't seem to be implemented.

Not that I disagree, but would you be willing to provide some insight into what you personally felt was missing?
They have already done it, it is called the T* series chips.

The first version, T1, did the secure enclave thing, and controlled Touch ID, thermal and power management and a few other things.

The second version, the T2, added storage management, an image signal processor, an audio controller, and encryption for the SSD.

The next version will probably do even more things.

It seems to me that the most likely scenario is the T* chip being used for more and more things and the amd64 chip to be used for less and less things until the amd64 chip is more a "hardware acceleration" chip, like GPUs, here to handle specific tasks to be offloaded from the (now ARM) CPU.

The shift from amd64 as the _central_ processing unit to the T* chip does not need to be a clear cut (ditching the intel cpu directly and using the T* chip for everything) but can (and is) being done progressively (the T chips becoming more and more capable).

This is just anec-data but from a friend who has spent a lot of time in London this year. It appears that the EU nationals are leaving in droves. As a result many IT departments are becoming seriously understaffed. So there may be a boom in jobs for UK nationals or the companies may be forced to go where the employees are and move to an EU country instead.
