It seems likely that the people that have been doing this for decades have a reason for the current methodology.

Generally how far exactly you are behind mainstream is useless information it produces exactly zero actionable intelligence. For most people in fact no amount of information would be actionable because mostly what they ought to do is run whatever their distribution comes with. For those who do indeed need more info. For example X.y supports their hardware better or at all. In fact what they need to know in that case is what version will provide a better experience and why. Knowing how far behind they are would be pointless. Knowing this in fact will lead at least some to upgrade pointlessly and potentially hit exciting new bugs/incompatibilities that their distro hasn't tested against. As an example I note that zfs on linux now supports a max of kernel 4.19. It might in theory work with 4.20 but it might not. Joe user notices that 4.20 is out. His distro ships with 4.19 he decides to upgrade and suddenly he can no longer actually mount his root filesystem with the new kernel and he has managed to remove 4.19. Another annoying example we might suppose that the proprietary driver package he uses to talk to his gpu doesn't build against the newest kernel and he boots no further than a text console when booting.

Even if the kernel doesn't break userspace it doesn't mean that stuff doesn't ever break.

What you are suggesting is that release cadence be optimized to give more useless info to laymen to help them make worse decisions.

Amazon is really not that good from a tech standpoint. They are good at selling and shipping at scale. Tech (including AWS) has always been a secondary or tertiary concern for them.
There are an awful lot of unforested areas which could be planted with trees. I'm surprised none of the green initiatives are about planting large quantities of trees. Trees remove CO2 from the air, sequester it in wood, and provide lumber for building.

I'm a bit leery of wood skyscrapers, however. What happens when they burn?

Mad Men didn't even have an audience when it aired (<2 million viewers most episodes), and airs on a network that likely won't exist in 5-6 years (or at least won't be producing new content), so it's not super clear to me what your point is about those shows as evidence of how a network grows. The way a network grows is by producing content people want to watch, whether that's disposable content made to last a minute or content made to last the test of time. HBO isn't growing because people are subscribing to watch Sopranos re-runs.

Past reporting suggests churn in most subscription content services is very low, so your Netflix cancellation may be unusual. I'd also add that exclusive content is one part of the story, but there's also a lot of licensed content that's very good on Netflix as on other services.

But for what it is worth, I would rank the following Netflix originals to be "top tier" within their genre -- some of these genres lend themselves more to rewatching than others, and some are closer to my taste than others, some held up in quality through their run more than others, so in a sense I am ranking shows based on their peak quality --

Orange is the New Black; Bloodline; Stranger Things; The Crown; Gilmore Girls AYITL; The OA; A Series of Unfortunate Events; Mindhunter; The Haunting of Hill House; Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt; Master of None; Love; Lady Dynamite; Santa Clarita Diet; GLOW; American Vandal; Maniac; Bojack Horseman; F is for Family; Disenchantment; Hilda; Dark; The Rain; Elite; Chef's Table; Making a Murderer; Shot in the Dark; Wormwood; Wild Wild Country; Salt Fat Acid Heat; Queer Eye; The Curious Creations of Christine McConnell; My Next Guest Needs No Introduction; Lilyhammer; Terrace House; Alias Grace; The End of the Fucking World; Collateral; Wanderlust; Longmire; Black Mirror; Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.

In addition to these, the following shows are Netflix originals in my region, indicating that although someone else initially funded them, Netflix bought them for exclusive distribution here, and also meet the above requirements:

Babylon Berlin; Bodyguard; Casé; Crashing; Cuckoo; Derry Girls; The Great British Baking Show; Happy!; Happy Valley; The Investigator; Peaky Blinders; River.

I have pretty broad taste in TV and watch a lot of TV while I am programming or running data analysis, so maybe the breadth of stuff I include here is surprising to most. But to the extent your post is a useful anecdote about how Netflix has no great shows, I'm responding to your challenge to "Name one show" that would meet that criteria.

(These are TV shows only, not films. I haven't really liked many Netflix original films although there are a few I would say are great, like Okja and Roma)
I don't know about Apple, but you are wrong about Disney.

They may have been meandering for a while but over the last decade (and change), current leadership has made three multi-billion dollar visionary acquisitions that turned the company around and brought it back to its roots as a story teller and creator/curator of American pop culture. Financial results followed the vision not the other way around (https://www.boxofficemojo.com/studio/).
At this rate we would be in triple digit numbers before long.

I posted this in another thread, but one thing I think that is hurting the iPhone upgrade cycle is that there are now so many iPhone versions no one can remember which "generation" they all are. Since 2016 we've got iPhone SE, 7, 7 Plus, 8, 8 Plus, X, XS, XS Max, and XR. With so many versions, I think there is less social pressure (internalized or real) to upgrade because it's not like people even really know how old your phone is by looking at it.

Compare this with everything before, where Apple came out with at most 2 versions a year (a cheaper one and a more expensive one, e.g. the 5c/5s or the 6/6 Plus). In its attempts to grab at lots of different price points Apple is losing what differentiated it and made it special in the first place.
Mine is sitting in bed, when the phone isn't able to isolate my face from the wall close behind me.

Also, recognizing me without glasses (again bed). I've got an alternate face configured, but bed also means low light, and current FaceID doesn't like thatat all.
I am a huge fan of txt files. How do you get your files accessible on different devices?
Anecdotally I prefer the notch to a bezel that would take up the same amount of space.

Vast majority of the time, I don't notice the notch. I like the way the 'done' button floats in the upper real estate when modifying apps (wiggle mode).

I would prefer a phone that's a pure wall-of-glass and manages somehow to also have FaceID, and I'm pretty sure Apple would as well but can't manufacture it.
This is great, will definitely check this out. I just struggled for hours following multiple blog posts and howtos to setup https locally, because I was trying to test Facebook login, which only allows HTTPS and can't be tested otherwise.

Definitely a great product if it works as advertised!
This is certainly a concern when logging old growth forests that have never been logged before, but I'm not sure it is such a concern with managed forests. I am pretty comfortable with the idea of increasing the area allotted to managed forests in the uk, particularly if it is allowing for a reduction in CO2 emmissions from homebuilding.

I also suspect that the alternative for areas that are/could become managed forests is not for them to be left alone and undeveloped.

Apple obviously thinks about it because the default wallpaper of the new line renders it invisible on the home screen in ads and display models.

FWIW I prefer a notch to a large upper bezel because it's a tidy way to tuck away my notifications and clock, though I don't love the way iOS does it and I don't love when it when apps go full screen in that area.
If your software doesn't work in a popular config they don't blacklist it in all the untested less popular configs? You are clear they are blacklisting the GPU driver, not blacklisting a linux install - right?

If a driver does not work in popular configs, and needs to be blacklisted in those configs, your solution is to still whitelist it in other configs and have the browser likely not work.

yes, "every company" does exactly what google did. you are being purposely dense, trying to catch a "technically correct" chance of not admitting the stupidity of your question. The problem is, you are not even technically correct - just purposely dense.
I used to put pennies in the fuse box as a kid.

My mom didn't spank me on that one, but the anger she displayed stopped my childish behavior.

By the way, I think we have gone overboard on electrical codes, but not having the fuse box in the bedroom closet is a good one.

I think you're both right. By listening and trusting your child, you'll be able to successfully and properly debug. That's what happened in the blog post.
Walt Disney died in 1966. I'm assuming the parent poster meant the tougher times Disney faced between then and the start of the Disney Renaissance in the late 80s.
I have both a Google home and Amazon echo literally next to each other. I have found that the Amazon device is really poor at hearing you.

The Google device I can talk to from any room in my apartment and it hears me correctly 95% of the time, it even triggers and understands me if I am brushing my teeth with an electronic toothbrush at the same time. It is impressive.

The Amazon device on the other hand has a 50/50 chance of triggering, and I often have to walk right up to it to clearly enunciate "computer" before it wakes up. Not sure if this because I speak en-gb instead of en-us.

(I have both only because the Google one does not reliably work with Samsung smartthings any more (it used to work fine!) but the Amazon one does. Amazon one is also good for music but Google tries to sell you a YouTube subscription. Google one is hugely better at random day to day questions/queries/translation/usefulness etc - I guess that is b cause they are a search engine and not an e-commerce site)
Three of these are easy to understand, especially if you know anything at all about how Apple has been naming iPhones since the beginning of the product line.

The fourth is the XR. Which is, as TFA indicates, a head-scratcher of a product.
look at where Disney was going with his futurism and technological/sociological ideas as well though. And they may have done well recently (though I don't really think buying innovation from other companies counts as the company finding direction) but for the longest time they were known for being rent-seekers and just milking the old cartoons and fairytales for everything they could get.

Since we're on the topic of tutorials to understand neural nets and modern deep learning, I will throw in Michael Nielsen's excellently written free online "book" on neural nets. It's really a set of 6 long posts that gets you from 0 to understanding all of the fundamentals with almost no prerequisite math needed.

Using clear and easy to understand language, Michael explains neural nets, the backprop algorithm, challenges in training these models, some commonly used modern building blocks and more:

This book opened my eyes to the power of textbooks written in such easy to understand, clear style. Bet it took repeated revisions, incorporating feedback from others and hours of work but such writing is a huge value add to the world.
I don't understand why you made the CA private key user-readable.

On my system, modifying the trust anchors requires root privileges.

mkcert undoes this boundary by opening a "shortcut" where any code on the machine can mint trusted certificates for any domain (like internet banking).

Why not make the CA private key only readable as root, and the issuance of new leaf certificates a privileged operation?

I would also expect that if/when you add ACME, that the CA key material is locked away in a different user to the one in the DE.

Maybe not every platform you support actually has this boundary, but I would expect that mkcert doesn't remove the boundary on platforms where it does exist.

I would really like all those post on the subject to focuss on what features the Chinese ( or third world guys like me like) like.

Relatives who have baugth Huawei or Xiaomi phones have shown me that they have more interesting features than my Moto G phone or even the iPhone X of my cousin.

For example the jack port, and the fact that the Huawei phone takes better night pictures. And more importantly the Chinese brands last longer in term of power management. I have seen it with my eyes. A single charger of Huawei/Techno/Xiaomi/Samsung can work perfectly on each one of them. Fact is, it's customary in my country to by a genuine Samsung chargerso you can charge all those phones. You can't do that with the iPhone.

And the same way Chinese don't have insensitive to use Apple ecosystem since they have WeChat, we in Africa do not have any compelling reason to switch to Apple because we have more versatile mobile money. Plus the two sim card option! A must have. And since some contents are blocked in some countries, the ability to install VPN and "unregistered" apps is a must. You can't do that with the iPhone...!

So at the end, I don't see how peoples blame the economic war on the decline of Apple, but I think it's a natural evolution for Apple because now competition are coming to us showing what we can have that iPhone doesn't offer.

I've previously had the best iPhone ever: 5S.

Go back far enough and I remember you would Google a key phrase, and see the first full ten pages being the exact same article, as accordance with some SEO gaming scheme.

Google quite reasonably now sees duplicate identical content as an issue, you can use the "canonical" HTML tag can be used to help it see the "real" link where several exist.

Also even though the article the mother seems to think that they have gotten to root cause.. there may be more of a cause.

The article mentions in brief that he has health issues. He got a proper diagnosis a few years later when he was fourteen. That helped enormously with a long list of complicated issues.

So his hand licking was likely rooted at least in part in the fact that he has a condition that significantly impacts his epithelial tissues, which includes but is not limited to skin.
My realization about Gibbs's contributions was reading an article about Fourier analysis in electronics, the article said when you approximate a square wave by using a series of sine waves, there will be overshoots at the edges, and this problem is called "Gibbs phenomenon".

What, "Gibbs"? Wasn't he the physicist working on the physics behind chemical reactions? So he did some applied mathematics, too? It shouldn't be the same person, is it? Then I've read his Wikipedia article...

And ironically, Gibbs phenomenon was initially discovered by an unnamed mathematician Henry Wilbraham in 1848, not Gibbs, but his paper was ignored and forgotten, like many other important ones in the history of science...

That's really cool to see that you built a BOM system in Clojure. I worked with BOM data for electronics a lot in my last job and while I was mostly confined to using SQL to do it (recursive CTEs ugh), I often thought about how much easier it would be to manipulate the BOM hierarchy structure in a lisp-like language.

I thought this was going to turn into an Obsessive Compulsive Disorder story. I use to wash my hands when I was younger .. a lot. I couldn't give an explanation because there wouldn't have been a rational one to give.

Instead I was just put on a bunch of drugs, all of which didn't make the compulsion go away, but did make me not want to wash my hands. Since I felt like I couldn't do certain things without washing my hands, I pretty much just watched more TV and became more lazy and useless.

I still have OCD, I just hide it a lot better these days.

Ask HN: Wedding photo sharing app or website?
Most weddings nowadays seem to ask guests to post their photos to Instagram, using a specific hashtag. This doesn't work out well, because most peoples' profiles are set to private, which means their photos are only visible to their Instagram connections. It would be nice if all the wedding guests could share photos between each other easily. There seems to be several apps for this purpose, but I doubt many guests would be willing to go through the hassle of installing an app, registering, entering a code, etc. just for this purpose. Would a self-hosted website work for this purpose? Any other ideas?
