It was more of the rapid-fire "where did you stay? what did you do your previous trips to Israel?", but also asking where I got the computer from, what I use it for, why I brought it to Israel, if anyone else touched it, etc.
Dom gives you a lot more though. Hit testing and events, css text alignment and wrapping.

In general, unless you are doing something very simple, replicating the dom and css engine with canvas is an uphill battle.

That being said, I love that the xterm terminal uses a canvas renderer and now going to move to a webgl renderer. Terminal like UI with monospaced fonts are an excellent candidate for low level rendering.
It's true at this current time, China is the best ecosystem to manufacture electronics. Moving anywhere will incur a higher cost but this higher cost is temporary.

This is econ 101. Moving now is pricier in the short run, but the investment, particularly in India, means that there will be a new ecosystem being built that will eventually provide the same costs and availability as manufactured in China without having to deal with the forced tech transfers, censorship, nationalistic boycotts, and a country that is increasingly hostile to democratic values and international norms.
So there is no distinction between natural selection and human directed artificial selection? I thought the whole point of the term was whether humans where doing the modification producing organisms that would not otherwise exist in nature.

How humans accomplish the genetic modification seems to be the point of contention and I argue its poorly defined as there are many techniques in between selective breeding and gene insertion that we use to perform the modification.
> Tariffs are paid by the consumers in the country that has the tariffs (ie Tariffs on China by US is paid by people in the US). It primarily hits those that spend most of their income on consumption, which is those that are poorer.

But consumers are already paying for the current situation in Germany. Instead of tariff, Germany decided to put downward pressure on salaries via the Hartz reforms. The effects are not far from tariff in that it shifts money from consumption towards savings/investments. That's why Germany has such a large trade surplus. And like tariff, it's a losing solution. In the end, your currency should reevaluate. Germany is just lucky to have the euro.

For a long time, I was really puzzled by why the German European partners stuck with Germany in the currency union were so tolerant of pretty much being spoiled. But after Macron, I think it's pretty clear: the richest are far too happy to be able to present lowering salaries and degrading work conditions as an inescapable part of modern economic competition. They are after all on the right side of the rising inequality.
Must've triggered something when they questioned you. Maybe you just made yourself non-Grata over there too by sharing this story.

At least they should have said, wait, let's clone it and here is your laptop back. Unless they suspected you of economic espionage or whatever and didn't you to have it with you. Either way, unless charged with a crime it's theft.
Apple and "cheap" are like oil and water - they don't mix. The last time Apple offered a "cheap" phone (read: still expensive for India" it cost like 500 USD in India.
If anyone at Techcrunch is reading "Snare" is not an appropriate word selection for the title of an article describing a friendly acquisition.

A "snare" or to "ensnare" is to trap an animal generally with a noose. The correct wording is "Dropbox Snags Hellosign." Such an incorrect word choice would have never have made it past an editor or proofreader. The level of journalism at TC is truly cringeworthy.

The nail in the coffin was Delphix switching away from Illumos for similar reasons the author cites in another article. As they drive most of the complex feature development directly with staff developers, and by virtue of having Matt Ahrens on staff drive a lot of the leadership and organization of ZFS, it makes sense to follow their lead as the repo of truth and lower the barrier to entry (illusions-gate wasn't working out).

Since FreeBSD support is going to be merged directly into the ZoL repo, ZoL devs will see the FreeBSD CI build results and it will be a lot closer to a unified upstream than the past. Being a downstream instead of integrated into the source of truth made feature development a laborious two way sync and communications were spread over many mailing lists and bug trackers. I think this move will be good for both communities, companies like iX Systems will help get trim across the finish line in ZoL.

In terms of shifting userbase, FreeBSD might even win in terms of ZFS revenue or other metrics like shipping systems due to FreeNAS (would have to spend a few hours researching the ZoL companies business models since a lot of the work is subsidized by the US Government via LLNL). I don't think there will be any tectonic shifts in userbase, there are still pros and cons to both Linux and FreeBSD in different areas and being behind in ZFS wont be wont be a con for either now.
Interesting article. So is the “unfriendliness” of Linux kernel developers towards ZFS that is mentioned strictly due to licensing issues or are there other points of contention?

Apple had lobbied hard against these rules but given that "Made in India" platform had be one of the bedrock policies of Prime Minister Modi, this was going to be an uphill battle.

That said, I might be pessimistic but I don't see this changing Apple's fortunes in India.

Geriatric may be one of the worst paid of the nursing professions, but nursing itself has seen its salaries increase dramatically. Partially due to demand, partially due to increasing responsibilities, and partially due to the equal pay for equal work movement. I know nurses who make well into 6 figures. That's because they work way more than 40 hours / week, with much of that night shift, but even without it's not the horrible pay it used to to. Nursing is definitely a "sustainable career".
>This is a good argument for never taking any electronic devices outside your home region.

For most of us here in particular that's very silly as well as completely unrealistic, we need some level of electronics for our work even beyond that it makes many kinds of travel much more practical. However, what is worth considering (at least when traveling internationally) is to have specific dedicated travel electronics. One consequence of the end of Moore's Law and the flattening of the performance curves in PCs and now mobile devices as well is that older kit can still be perfectly serviceable for travel usage. I replaced my 4 year old notebook and 3 year old phone last year for example, but this time rather then sell the old ones (which aren't worth that much anyway) I just kept them and changed them into specific clean travel devices (and with the notebook in particular oriented around remote work for most stuff).

That kind of opsec was a lot more expensive and difficult at one point, but these days I think it's ever more practical and it reduces potential headaches and opportunities for screwups (by me) a lot. It's much easier to make sure nothing critical is on a device I wipe regularly and much easier to maintain compartmentalization with physical separation. If any of it ever was seized I'd still be bummed/irritated, it's still worth some money and on a practical level it'd mean I didn't have it for the rest of the trip (even if the rest is just "the flight home" and all I wanted was to read a bit). But nothing I couldn't just write off ever seeing again or that could cause me any trouble even if it was cracked.

Even a verbal contract has some weight. A "yes that's fine" reply to an unambiguous email is likely to stand up in court. "I, <full legal name> agree to this" is even better.

A formal contract with a real ink signature makes things easier, but it's often not required.
How real is the risk?

ZFS on Linux is loaded via DKMS. DKMS is basically the compile-from-source alternative to binary blob drivers. Is there a reason to believe that ZFS via DKMS is materially different, legally, to Nvidia drivers being loaded via binary modules?

Indeed it appears that Nvidia proprietary drivers these days go via the DKMS route. Are they also at risk?

I believe this why "coding interviews" are so controversial. Different people perhaps have a different definition of "programmer".

The question I ask, that everyone asks, is: "What's in it for me?" and "Why should I care?"

India's top 5% can afford a $1000 phone somewhat easily. India's top 5% is about 65 million people. That's a lot of potential volume. Will the iPhone be main stream in India? No, of course not.

I might be doing some arm-chair psychological claims right now, but, here's my opinion. The phones being expensive is what makes them appealing. Apple is the undisputed king of branding. They're selling a lifestyle.

Everyone wants a taste of the high life, and while the cheap version of the iPhone might not be 500 USD, it needs to get close to the prevailing flagships in India with little tariff overhead. iPhones incur an insane markup in India right now, so they'll want to reduce that, atleast close to the price in the US.

That’s funny, it took leaving al-anon and AA before the people I knew having problems and their families got better. We all look back at both 12-step programs as very cult like, using religious-style pandering language.

The anecdotes are meaningless. AA can work for a small subset of individuals, but It makes no sense for America to push AA as a first line treatment. AA is not a treatment, it’s a self-help group with poor results.

Pardon my disdain, but promoting AA over other solutions is frustrating for this formerly silent family in America who are fed up with the 12 step answer.

I used lowendbox[0] to find great deals.

Then, I automated buying a ton of them into one bill as they generally don't allow you to bulk buy (which lead to a failed bill as it broke their billing. This lead their sales team to contact me to discuss my usage. Then they provided me with a better quote than the one on Lowendbox).

I wrote $15 / yr as that's the "discounted" price on Lowendbox. But if you bulk buy or buy with a commitment for 3 yrs - it's even cheaper (or you can negotiate to get more stuff for the same price). I can't talk about how much I end up paying as we've a special deal based on our usage.

I disagree with your assessment. Both corporations and foreign workers are helped the most from their previous state before these immigration policies were created. I will agree with you that the foreign worker is treated unfairly, but their lot is still greatly improved from their previous condition. The only party that has a net negative outcome is the citizens whose wages are suppressed by the increased supply.

I have a fairly libertarian view on both immigration and income inequality. I'm generally ok with both. I have a harder time understanding people who support fairly liberal immigration while also being concerned about domestic income inequality. You didn't mention the latter, but it seems to me these positions are incompatible.
Two parents working has negative externalities as well. Costs adjust to what families can bear. Double incomes means increased prices and reduced purchasing power for everyone.

My wife's career never started. Her degree was worthless so she was working as a barista before we had kids. She does some work on the side, but she was never going to generate the kind of income I do solely based on our respective career choices.

If I lose my job, we can live off savings for several years. If I am unable to find work, the economy has bigger problems that are independent of my wife working or not. If I die or become disabled, that's what insurance is for.

Single brand retail chain ownership was restricted in India. A foreign entity could only own up to 51% in a single brand retail chain. That has changed last year in Jan 2018.

You have to think that competition between countries is good for Apple here.

If all the tech is in China, there is no competition to have the most favorable regulatory/taxation scheme. If there are two competitions, both have an incentive to lure more manufacturing towards themselves.
Iran can easily issue BTC- or ETH-denominated bonds.

Why would a free market buy bonds denominated in some newly created currency? Smells like the issuer just wants to be able to devalue this currency in order to pay the interest.

In the end, the reason reasonable investors won't buy 30% BTC-denominated Iranian govt. bonds is that Iran will have to exchange the ETH/BTC earned from selling the bond (because whoever Iran wants to pay don't accept ETH/BTC), which exposes the investment to a huge exchange rate risk.
I find most discussions of this nature to be completely missing the point. Semantic arguments about the specific syntax required to accomplish some goal, or comparisons of which approach works better for a _single_ given use case are silly. We get it, the expression problem exists. The fact of the matter is that FP and OOP work on different levels. Higher-levels favor FP and lower-levels favor OOP. That is, coordination is best-implemented via FP and enforcing rules is best-implemented as OOP. Arbitrarily choosing a single approach ensures poor system design.

For example, as many have pointed out, methods like "collide" or "attack" don't really make sense to have on a single object. This is because this method works at the level of coordination, and therefore _should_ be functional. Alternatively a method like "addDamage" method works at the domain level were it enforces rules/state change.

We can easily apply the above observation to system architecture and conclude that the outer-most layers of an application (services) are best-implemented using a FP approach and the inner-most layers (domain) are best-implemented using OOP.

It does not surprise me that most applications adopt FP. Because most people think procedurally and start applications with a top-down mindset, the outer-most layers (use cases) tend to be modeled first where a FP approach makes sense. This then just carries through the rest of the application.
