Now that Jobs is gone, Cook is showing he has the logistics knowledge but not the other parts of product leadership needed.
Setting up Postgres with replication using Kubernetes
I put my terminal based music player (cmus) in a Quake-style drop-down terminal (Yakuake). It's easy to access, doesn't add any clutter, works with ReplayGain, and it works with media keys.

I read that more and more parts are soldered on the logic board in the new version, which means people have to buy new macbooks every few years anyway.

I tried to upgrade my RAM and found out it's soldered in, whelp, lets see how long I can stand 8GB of RAM, haha.

Can you please clarify? I'm researching AWS and am interested in the historical practices of the company, but I'm not sure what "roll over" means in the context you used it.
Data journalism and long-form deep investigative journalism is fine, or least less bad. With the caveat that data journalism that illustrates past or current events is fine, but that which tries to draw correlations or make predictions should be taken with a grain of salt.

Short form journalism I ignore, or seek the primary source (like a president’s speech or similar).
I feel like people are missing the mark here, complaining about commercial game engines.

SpatialOS was basically re-distributing Unity under a SaaS model. Unity is in the right here.

Edit: Have heard some pretty good points about the ambiguous wording of the ToS (such as theoretically making the distribution of a Unity-made game through a storefront illegal). It will be interesting to see if this ToS change sticks.

The "sysvinit" binary package has had a total of 2 bug reports tagged "security" filed in Debian's bug tracker. That's over the entire history of the package that goes back to at least 2004.

If I extend the search to all packages built from the "sysvinit" source (which includes packages like initscripts and sysvinit-utils), the count increases to 8.

As a graphic designer, if I Adobe CC worked on GNU/Linux I would gladly switch. Alas my job is very depended on Adobe InDesign.
At least as far as Debian is concerned, you will find that the people with skin-in-the-game (administrators) were massively against systemd. The Devuan fork/split happened exactly because of that.
I'm not about to tell people which platforms they should run - each to their own and all that - but I do feel it's worth mentioning there's no need to use emacs nor vim on Linux if you didn't want to.
daemontools, or respawn from inittab. There are a number of perfectly reasonable possibilities, of which these are just two.

But more generally, you didn't restart daemons if they crashed. Firstly, because they used to be written sufficiently well that they never crashed, because competent people wrote them. Secondly, because continually respawning and crashing does no one any good.
Good work man. Don't mind all the criticism here in HN. ;)
It is different in this day and age, though, with respect to the time when the FOSS philosophy was born.

The difference is that now a lot of software is run as a service, which wasn't the case back than.

So, imagine MongoDB was used some 20 years ago (and it was GPL, as AGPL wouldn't make as much sense back then). A big company comes along, makes some modifications to the base product and tries to sell it. Guess what? They have to give the source code (including their additions) to whoever buys their version (including, potentially, Mongo inc.) so they would still be on a somewhat level playing field.

Enter software as a service. Since the GPL says nothing about software served via network, MongoDB goes under AGPL, which has provisions for this scenario. Amazon is not selling software copies, they're selling a service (hosting, integration, etc). So, even if they make additions to the source code and give them back upstream, they're on a completely different level from the small player (Mongo inc. or whoever else) and, since they're not differentiating on the code alone, win in the long run.

This all to say, it's not the promise/premise of FOSS that is flawed, it's just that the playing field changed.

There is an element of luck with anything in life: Being in the right place at the right time, being the right person as well as recognizing the opportunity. SV is a lucky place, YC is a lucky place, Stanford (or even a University) is a lucky place. How do you get to those places? You typically have to work hard at something to get the opportunity.

Not to mention that LyX has lots of features a graphical editor can offer you that editing a plain text file cannot.

Expecting the FSF and RMS in particular to negotiate away the core freedoms (just so that businesses can make profits, no less!) strikes me as the height of futility.
This feels overwelming. While I realize Rails isn't the cool thing in the web space anymore, I'm still convinced the best way to get someone into web development is to sit them down with Michael Hartl's Ruby on Rails tutorial and have them go through it any number of times. I've turned several zero-experience friends and/or interns into career web developers this way.
Yes, maybe my problem is more with Rails. (Because of monkeypatched APIs, it’s not always obvious to me whether a particular weirdness originates from Ruby’s standard library or is a Rails addition. Arguably this is something the language has also encouraged though.)

Is there any reason to use Ruby outside Rails? Its niche seems to completely overlap with Python and modern JavaScript, and those have enormously more ecosystem support and everything that comes along with it: faster VMs, better tooling, large corporations on committees developing language features, etc.

I view Ruby as a sort of “COBOL of Web 2.0”. A generation of programmers learned the trade with it, and it powers important legacy apps, but I can’t imagine building anything new on it.
I love the idea behind this and PostgREST, but one thing keeps me from using on projects with a team: versioning. I've been using it for personal projects and, while doing CREATE POLICY, CREATE ROLE here and there is easy when working alone, I can only expect a nightmare when working with a medium-sized team.

Migrations are, of course, a possible solutions, but I'm yet to see a decent toolset for managing schema changes.

Intuitive explanation: if you interpret a time series as the coefficients of a polynomial, the Fourier transform is just polynomial multiplication (this makes sense because polynomial multiplication is just convolution). Now we can write base b numbers as polynomials with single-digit coefficients, evaluated at x = b. Then after multiplying two such numbers/polynomials the coefficients are too large. The only thing remaining is too carry the overflows in the digits to the next digit (much like the school algorithm for adding numbers).
I'd agree not all of the Guardian's opinion pieces are trustworthy. This is true of a lot of news sources. I'd consider the ability to distinguish opinion pieces from factual reporting as one of the easy-to-learn stylistic differences to check, but I can see how that's unclear.
https://www.cornucopia.org/scorecard/eggs/

The highest rated egg producers have "truly pastured" chickens... which is probably as close as you can get to giving them a "natural life" while confining them. Note that there is a mutually-beneficial trade going on here- They do give up their eggs (and eventually themselves), and are (broadly) confined, but while alive they can eat as much as they want and they are secure from predation.

I am extremely impressed by Impossible burgers (Beyond is OK, but Impossible... wow.) I haven't tried vegan eggs but if they don't get the yolk almost exactly right I might not be able to switch, can you provide a link?

Also, what's your opinion on lab-grown muscle meat? Is it all about ethics for you?

> To me it seems incredibly cruel to continue to eat animals and their eggs and milk.

I believe at least the "eggs and milk" can be done in humane ways. Again, we provide an environment for them with unlimited food and minimized risk of predation. In the wild, food would be scarce and predation risk would be ever-present.

As far as eating animals... I consider it a near-necessary evil for now that will eventually go away. (I know you're arguing that it isn't necessary, and you're probably right... I'm talking about convincing EVERYONE of this RIGHT NOW tho)

> We don't need to do it anymore and to continue to do so is willfully supporting cruelty against animals.

I have an idea you might like. What if you took a few friends to do a field trip to the source of the meats/eggs/cheese they eat (after doing the homework to investigate where these are, of course)? Judgment-free. And also to observe treatment and (if you can stomach it, and if they permit it, which they may not) the slaughtering part. I'd go on that trip. Observed truth is the best argument...
If I understand you correctly, they mix rays coming from one spot over many frames instead of shooting more rays in a single frame? That sounds great and a bit inspired by natural vision. Optical flow sensors are cheap enough for computer mouses and the like. But who says it's really just one ray? The number of frames to integrate would be too high

Of course that'd work for fps as slow as battle of duty \s

IMO there are several reasons:

1: Its very easy to use and there are A LOT of C# developers out there.

2: I suspect that because so many successful games have been made with Unity, more people are attracted. If you ask a average gamer, many can identify at least 1 or 2 games made with Unity, but most have no idea what Godot even is.
I don’t think I’ve ever come across an algorithms book that discusses FFT that doesn’t discuss fast polynomial multiplication when introducing the algorithm.

That’s literally what the FFT does, fast polynomial multiplication.

In the production of what vegan food? Vegans don't eat honey. Maybe you mean what California does in order to grow almonds? So just American almonds? that's not really "all this vegan food" is it. it's one thing that isn't exclusively eaten by vegans.
No, Spatial was not doing that, they are an integration with Unity. Developers still needed to install Unity with a license, get the SpatialOS framework running as their net code, and then write a game.

Long term Mac user, currently with Macbook Pro.

It's Apple that offsets the damn touchpad. I don't want it central to the case, I want it central to the home keys (F and J) of the keyboard.

Apple centres with the case. Which is broken. There's more keys on the right side of a keyboard than the left (without a number pad), thanks to punctuation and brackets, so hands rest slightly left of case centre line.

Truth be told I'd prefer Apple fit a trackpoint, but that's never happening.
Java may suck to some, but it pays huge chunk of corporate salaries. Although there is the best of both worlds: JRuby! Scripting JMX and some heavy JDBC stuff with Ruby saved me so much time.
launchd has a clearly defined scope, and it restricts itself to doing only those tasks which fall under its remit.

If systemd had followed a similar philosophy, it would have been accepted without anything like the same amount of criticism. As it is, its scope creep is frankly absurd and dangerous.

if you cannot 'see' the commands and passwords etc., then a malicious interuder can also not see it. you need to build it with in mind that you will be owned. if you design it like that, then most of the complaints you have gotten are invalid. it can be that you yourself are trustworthy and good person, but this doesn't say that there might be unknown vulnerabilities in your code or infrastructure. once someone is on the box, they can see the same as you, but they might not be so kind as to drop the information.

you can do that with xdotool if you want to paste the xbuffer. I suggest handling the shortcuts at the window manager level. this force ctrl-c to always do copy - even in the terminal, but nothing stty can't fix quickly - I use ctrl-x instead as it is close by.

end result, my ctrl c and ctrl v work as you would expect -- always!

Ask HN: How many people do you know that use Linux and don't work in tech?
Except for Android, how many persons do you know that use Linux on their personal computer?

This is most definitely selection bias, but it seems like there's something in the air at the moment with people jumping off the "mainstream tech" ship. Lots of talk of nostalgia for 90s internet culture, switching to Linux (I also switched to Linux (and Emacs!) after a decade+ on Mac), more secure/transparent tech with phones etc. More willingness to put up with "rough spots" and "less shiny" for greater access to things under-the-hood.

Is it just nostalgia? Global politics? Me hanging around other nerds who are also getting older? I dunno, but now computers seem more exciting than ever!

One can certainly use Linux set up in such a way as to be very similar to a Mac experience. (ElementaryOS seems to me intentionally be Mac-like, for instance. But plenty of other distros are also set up in such a way that the user doesn't have to ever open a terminal if they don't want to.)

There's no rule that you ever have to open either emacs or vim on Linux (though, personally I think you're missing out if you've only spent 8 minutes in emacs, but that's beside the point). In fact, you can just not install either emacs or vim, and thus make certain you don't ever open them by accident.
its funny this came to my mind thinking about it but i wasn't aware it already existed. thanks for that.

As far as anyone can tell (which isn't very far) those circular pits were used as 'kivas'. They held some sort of semi-religious significance, but what sort is nearly unknown. Some Puebloans use the kiva as a simple sweat-lodge, some use it as a 'sprouting house' for initial crop growth, some use the kiva as a church-like ceremony building, some use it as a giant drum (really). Since most of the Puebloans came to Chaco Canyon in it's heyday and had interactions there, it's very strange that they all then evolved to have different uses for such a special place. The Santa Ana Puebloan People think that there is a sipapu, or 'world navel', just off to the western side of that North-South dividing wall, so there's that as well. An interesting thing is that the Puebloans all met at Chaco, that is fairly well understood, but genetic studies show that they did not interact enough to mate and have children with the other groups. Despite the annual interactions, they remained distinct peoples.

Acoustic studies of the kiva pits show that giant drums, beaten with the feet, had resonances that may have interacted with canyon walls too. But the largest kiva in existence at Chetro Ketl, perfectly south of Pueblo Bonito, is no where near the canyon walls and the size of the kiva makes the resonance in the far sub-sonic for human hearing. In the kiva at Chetro Ketl, there is also evidence of layers of burn sand and dust going down many meters into the ground. There's at least a dozen PhD theses waiting in that dirt.

Also, the layout of Pueblo Bonito is only the first few stories of the building. For preservation, they have buried the lower stories of the pueblo. When you look at the full design plan, it makes zero sense. The mostly rectangular rooms have doors that lead to all kinds of weird places. There are nearly no hearths, and the rooms would have been in total darkness, as little evidence is found of suit on what remains of the roofs (lots of destruction has taken place, so who knows in the end).

We do have evidence from the oldest parts of Pueblo Bonito (the Pueblo was built in stages over about 300 years), that near total darkness was the norm. Skeletons of macaques (yes, from the Yucatan!) show severe deformities associated with lack of sunlight. Also, pottery shards have cacao residue on them from other parts of Central America. The oldest part of Pueblo Bonito is also the only part that has burial of human remains. There, 4 people (likely some form of sub-priest) were interned above 2 other people (likely higher priest-like persons), one of whom likely died of leg wounds just before burial, all in the structure and above the ground level at the time. Coincidentally, half of all the turquoise ever discovered via archeology was found with these 6 people. That's a LOT of turquoise. No other bodies have ever been discovered in the Canyon and very little 'trash' is in the Canyon as well.

Sorry for the ramble. But Chaco really is a place of questions, not answers. It's very unique in the world for this reason and well worth the visit and deep-dives into it.
