> The price gap between an iPod Touch and the cheapest iPhone is not something I'd have expected of 2010 Apple.

Just to confirm, up until a couple of months ago, the difference between the low-end iPod Touch and the cheapest iPhone was $150, and today this is $250. I don't recall there ever being a time that this was significantly lower.
The strange part is that I'm Indian and I would never think of traveling to Gaya because of where it's located (the state of Bihar has a poor reputation).
I agree.

The policy would probably even be illegal within the EU because of that. At least in Germany, courts regularly require privacy policies to be short and clear, and all that humor basically obfuscates the real policy.
I'm currently working on a full-stack app centered around GraphQL and my experience is pretty similar to yours - when it works, it's like magic. The problem is, it doesn't always work the way you expect it to. Here are some of the things I've noticed:

While the main technologies are pretty mature and well documented, gluing them together is often a lot trickier and left entirely to the user. If you need a way for Apollo to communicate with the database, you have to handle that yourself. Same thing for authentication and access control. File uploads also require a separate library.

I think the whole stack has a lot of promise, but it's going to have trouble gaining steam as long as it forces the user to think about these sort of things.

Something else I've noticed is that it shifts a lot of the work to the back-end while at the same time introducing new problems you never had with REST. With REST, you had endpoints with clearly defined inputs and outputs, which were easy to reason about and secure. This is not the case with GraphQL - because it is so expressive, it's hard to cover every possible use case, especially if you're doing the entire security and access control yourself. The other problem GraphQL has that REST does not is recursive queries - it's entirely possible to request something like this:

authors -> posts -> comments -> authors -> posts -> comments ...

Another thing I should mention - while Prisma and Apollo are pretty stable and well documented, various smaller libraries are often not. This is not an issue specific to GraphQL, but because it has a smaller ecosystem then say, React, you're a lot more likely to run into it.

Lastly - the pace of the development is bonkers. I've run into situations where an 8 month old post was already obsolete. Or major versions a year and a half apart.
It's a model. A pretty good one, since the mechanism at play here can occur in a very general sense.
The car market is an example where this effect may occur, as is insurance and finance. However, in reality, there are many more things going on that this model abstracts from. Nevertheless, the basic issue of asymmetric information shown in this model exists, to some degree, among other effects.
You should not understand this paper as a statement about the used car market.

So for example: You say the owner does not know whether it is a lemon or peach. Well, the model is about asymmetry. Everything goes through if the owner (on average) knows MORE than the buyer. I think that's pretty fair, and if it is not the case, we are not dealing with an information asymmetry and the model is silent on the matter.
Similarly, clearly cars are not just two types, lemon and peach. But again, results will hold if you make introduce more and more classes. It just makes the math less simple.

You also say that some people do not sell their car because it is a lemon. True. But again, on average, the rate of lemons for a given price will be higher than it would be if you could identify the quality of a car exactly - because it is sufficient that some people sell their lemons as peaches. You could introduce all this in the model, you just probably wouldn't learn anything new.

It's a good model, because its simple and even if you throw more stuff at it, the mechanism persists to a degree. Clearly, in reality, more things are going on than just this. But reading the paper we learn about an issue that exists within the complex system, and that is valuable.
Apple devices do have relatively long useful life. My main workstation is a 2009 Mac Pro that I’ve maxed out, and it remains a highly performant machine.

Our household has a long tail of Apple products, that get passed down, or put to different uses.

This is hugely important for Apple business strategy. Not only does it please the customer to have well made, long lasting hardware, it cements the “ecosystem” into a much more embedded place in the lives of users.

Apple has competive advantages and disadvantages, but it absolutely must maintain customer loyalty. To even break out service revenue is a little uniformative, because the feedback loops they get from having a tightly integrated system are huge.

Apple has struggled with the online platform aspect of its business, compared to Google, Amazon, etc...but even if it’s not a market leader, if they can get a “good enough “ product that prevents users from leaving the ecosystem that is huge.

A paradigm example is Apple Maps which was a source of embarrassment for a while. Going up against Google in this space seems insane.

But they finally got it good enough that my guess is vast majority of iPhone users use Apple Maps, not Google. Ideally, Apple wants to prevent as many people as possible from having to get a google account as they can!
Combination of burnout and wrong job can definitely lead to a person feeling like his work is useless and causing depression. Don't think you need to get fired for that.

I'm using Nulab's Backlog. This is sort of a shameless plug since I work for that company. However I must say that after several years of clunky issue trackers, this one feels very very refreshing.
I won't waste your time with marketing speech, which you can find plenty of on the official website.
But actually easiness of use and moderate configurability, plus a decent-looking UI, are the points our advocates praise most often.

The company is very strong in Japan, where it was founded, but rather low-key in the rest of the world. I never heard of it myself before I joined, but after starting to actually use the product, I really wish I had.
Buying things on Amazon seems like a similar problem, multiple third parties, cheapest price, fake reviews or different versions being grouped together under one set of reviews
I've switched to name.com a while back due to decent pricing and an easy to use rest api to change some of my subdomains ip address dynamically.

Has any one encountered sleezy practices like GoDaddy with name.com? I take my domain registrars reliability and business practices very seriously!
This. WebFaction, in my eyes, is as good as shared hosting can get. Built an entire company on top of its robustness & trustworthiness. I was beyond dismayed when I heard the news of the acquisition (sorry, "partnership") and every time the GoDaddy integration is mentioned I go surveying the alternatives.
Eleven new House members with sci-tech backgrounds
had a samsung galaxy S4 until start of this year. I made a bet with myself and put it in a drawer where it remains until 2020. Then I'll decide if I really must have a mobile phone or not.

I have reduced usage and removed all apps last year then started to leave it at home when going out since past Fall. This way it wasn't a total ice-bucket challenge. I haven't missed it for a moment yet. When I go out and wait for the bus or tram to arrive I look at other people, the clouds and my general environment. I am more calm again and it feels like everyone else glued to their screen is part of some matrix. They almost obsessively dig around their pockets quickly to find their phone as soon as they get on the bus in order to avoid eye-contact with everyone else at all cost. I remember how it was when I too did this it was like some kind of insecurity that my phone allowed me to escape. e.g. I pretend that I'm busy on my phone ... because there is a pretty girl on the other side and the last thing I want is to look at her ... if she'd notice me she would think I am a weirdo because I'm just sitting their without doing anything and even get the impression that I stare ... Or I get an uncomfortable vibe from somebody else on the bus and so quickly get my phone because the pretend-world in there feels just so much safer. It also shows the world that I do have a life and am not just a weirdo. Or does it?

I remember going out w/out a phone last year and I was in a different city (and country). Asking a passerby on the road was the only option and he actually said to me why you don't just check google maps yourself. I told him sorry my battery is flat which seemed the only correct response without looking like a total weirdo.

But these are outliers, in general I do just fine. The reason why I became militant about not having a phone was when I see my gf who is a hell of a lot younger than me and was pushed into using it by her own parents. They would freak out if she wasn't reachable for even a short time and so she always had one on her since the age of twelve. When I was 12 mobile phones didn't even exist and I owned my first phone when I was 22 (it was a Motorola brick phone and my employer gave it to me to stay in touch). I see a lot of the anxiety people complain about every day being rooted in phones and their capability to distract and steal our time (life's too short for this shit ... but then I'm just an old man shouting at the cloud).
The GDPR lets you set as much cookies as you want. They are mostly an irrelevant implementation detail.

The GDPR will however care that your traffic passes through GoDaddy, no matter if they set cookies or not. To be more precise, the GDPR will consider GoDaddy a processor of your data and you as a controller will need a proof from all your processors that they process data in a GDPR compliant way.

In practice, most european web hosting companies set up a web page somewhere that gives you this proof, and will,for a small payment, give you a signed, printed copy of this page. For most small to medium sites, either option will do.
You're probably confusing Lichess for another app, the founder has been in the Scala community since at least 2012, if not before.

Although maybe in the early days it was, for some reason, written in PHP; I'd be quite surprised if that were the case.

> Apple has always cared about dominating market share.

Apple dominates profits, but not market share. Occasionally, this happens to drive their competitors out of the market, as is what happened with iPod, iPad, and Apple Watch; however, Mac and iPhone, while quite profitable, are not even close to "dominating" the market.

> The Ipads had been selling fro hundreds of millions per year.

This is not true at all. Apple sells significantly fewer than a hundred million iPads each year.

Some methodology in PDF (https://www.ipsos.com/sites/default/files/ct/news/documents/...)

The survey is conducted monthly in 28 countries around the
world via the Ipsos Online Panel system. The countries
included are Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada,
Chile, China, France, Great Britain, Germany, Hungary, India,
Israel, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, Peru, Poland, Russia,
Saudi Arabia, Serbia, South Africa, South Korea, Spain,
Sweden, Turkey and the United States of America.

An international sample of 20,787 adults aged 18-64 in
Canada, Israel and the US, and aged 16-64 in all other
countries, were interviewed between August 24th 2018 and
September 7th 2018.

Approximately 1000+ individuals participated on a country by
country basis via the Ipsos Online Panel with the exception of
Argentina, Belgium, Hungary, India, Israel, Mexico, Peru,
Poland, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, South Korea,
Sweden and Turkey, where each have a sample of
approximately 500+.
I just keep mine attached to my keys with a “dongle dangler” and this has never been a problem.

People love to complain about how inconvenient losing the headphone jack is (especially people with phones that still have it!) but that’s just because this is the internet, where everybody complains about everything.
Yes thanks I do know how many official deaths there were and I also know that alternative numbers in the low thousands are still under reported.

We met with a variety of people there and the coal miner deaths alone are in the thousands. Liquidator deaths are far closer to tens of thousands.

Oh and you think Chernobyl was bad as it was? If the inital coal miners hadn't been sent down in the first few days you would have been looking a far far far worse explosion that would have irradiated (and effectively made unihabitable hundreds of kilometers). So bad the USSR was plannning on the basis it would have had the radiation effects expected of a 4+ megaton nuclear weapon. Oh and to top it off they assumed the explosion would have also destroyed and set off the other still working reactors...

Nuclear is not the answer.
We don't have a strong alternative. You are tasked with providing for your progeny in no small part simply because no one else will.
Unfortunately that's what many companies do. IIRC, this includes connecting with OVH ips to mojang (minecraft) login servers. It's becoming a popular practice that is not good in UX terms at all
Hi, I’d like a ticket for the new transformers movie, but id there are any explosions I want my money back.

Sure that’s just negotiation, but in that case I’d argue just as well that the costumer is being unresonable because he has expectations of the experience that simply don’t align with what is being offered. And if the establishment decides not to take your business because of the unusual request, which is wierdly dependent on how things play out I would not hold it against them.

As for not wanting clues, you can just tell them not to provide them and they wont. No need for the weird conditional payment option. You’re taking away a timeslot no matter what and costing them money, if you want to do that you need to pay, wanting special conditions on that payment is “rather harsh”.
He sounds a bit silly. Escape rooms are group events, he's not the only customer in the room. If the rest of the group wants hints (it's not fun to just be stuck on a clue) then they will give hints. One customer throwing a tantrum on Yelp afterward probably sucks though. Can't please everyone, especially not people like him.

I guess there may be hosting providers that are that insecure, but I doubt it.
There are many ways you can secure and isolate the users. SuExec, grsecurity, strict security policies, 24/7 monitoring are just some of the things a reputable hosting provider would have.

Back when I first installed Linux on a PC it was much more challenging than putting LineageOS on a phone. Especially getting full hardware support on a laptop took a lot of fiddling.

Nowadays, Lineage will work perfectly OOTB 99% of the time. And 100% of the time if you buy a phone which is already compatible.

Moon microbe mystery solved (2011)
thanks, yes negotiation was my intention. I wouldn't word it as harshly (the tone makes the music) but tell them beforehand that this would be my expectation and condition for engaging in a transaction. my phrasing would be more like "hey I had some really bad experience before because a/b/c and I'd expect absolutely no help regardless how bad we do etc..."

and if this happens we would break from finishing the game immediately and walk out (as it is imho like cheating ourselves (which I wouldn't pay any money for). I'd also make clear that in case we can't finish that it's actually a reason for us to come back.

in any case it would be strong enough worded so that they get it (without sounding threatening)

When did I ever claim to be an authority on anything? I'm making the observation that citizens who know they're being surveilled online are unlikely to respond to this type of poll negatively, affecting the accuracy of the results.

I threw an interesting personal anecdote in there as an example but at no time did I make an authority claim. So I don't know what your point is.
You should look up “Just keep talking and nobody explodes” which works out quite fantastic social VR Game. One person has a headset and can see a bomb with different contraptions that needs to be solved to defuse it, the other team members have instructions on how to defuse the contraptions but can’t see the bomb. It’s also a great exercise in effective communication.

Even they piss me off I'd never leave a review. I am not a fucking coward. Please speak for yourself and don't put things in my mouth that I haven't done or suggested.

> how would you determine which one an individual is dealing with?

The individual needs to talk to an expert (a doctor or a therapist) to find this.

Many medical issues show similar symptoms - we go to a doctor for a physical issue, then why do we think we know enough to diagnose mental issues?

These things are complex, and it is okay to ask for help.
You're missing the point. I should have left the anecdote out as it's clearly distracting from what I really wanted to get across. I'm saying that this type of poll is never going to be accurate in an authoritarian regime where citizens know they're being watched.

The anecdote was just an observation and as such should of course be taken with some skepticism.
