Yes, but I don't think the numbers given in the chart consider such possibilities. I think they're for a standard rocket blasting off from the surface and having to account for atmospheric drag when determining how much delta-v is required to reach orbit.

A few years ago I had success generating WYSIWYG PDFs using HTML5 and the printable classes in CSS Bootstrap (https://getbootstrap.com); in that particular case I used CherryPy (https://cherrypy.org) under IIS and sent the rendered HTML to pdfkit (https://pypi.org/project/pdfkit/) to generate PDFs. That was preferred over relying on the user to print to the page to PDF from their web browser.

I'm with you. I've been using Ansible for all my work the past 3 years and I haven't seen any thing that it hasn't been able to handle. It's incredibly flexible and if you use the inventory and variable precedence correctly then it can be very deterministic.

I've seen examples of how Ansible will keep recreating instances but that's only if you don't define what your infrastructure should look like in the inventory.

"Imagine if Spotify offered a lower rate for Android users... Wouldn't that send a very clear message to Apple?" - That is exactly what Spotify should do. They need to use the fact that Apple is married to its platform against them. Charge Apple users 12.99 and Android users 9.99 and then beat them by offering superior content. If Apple users want to sign up online then they can get the 9.99 price.

European Commission is the only antitrust regulator with teeth, I'm glad that single market area is coming into its own. The regulator for the 21st century that corporations actually listen to. Without them, we would be here debating how this doesn't satisfy antitrust laws to the American standard, which would be beyond the point but a typical discussion.

Going to take another 50 years before that succumbs to regulatory capture.
The Spotify playlists aren't even a license. They are just a list of songs that you want to listen to. The only thing that prevents you from switching services is restrictions on porting the playlists. (Currently, the two ways of getting playlists out of Spotify are the developer oauth tokens and the GDPR export.)

Replace Spotify with Apple Music in the article. Same case. If Spotify wants others to play fair, it should start playing fair as well.
Not absurd. Different departments in the same company have budgets of their own. If a department wants to buy an ad from their own paper, it should affect their remaining budget, just as it should show up on the Ad department's revenue.

Spotify was salty after Apple was mean to them; this is a good example of the fact that they aren't concerned about "fairness" as much about their own business. Users that have poured time into Spotify playlists aren't going to transfer if they can't move them. Spotify didn't even have to develop something here, they blocked the work of someone who did it for them. This isn't fair. Which is fine, but it is then okay for Apple to be "unfair" about their business too.

It goes a level deeper than that. Learned from dating a very good massage therapist for awhile, our minds relatively commonly cause physical changes that lead to pain symptoms.

E.g. you subconsciously favor your back, leading to overexertion of other muscles, leading to physical degradation and pain from those muscles

Talking with her was eye opening on the amount of sub-major muscle "stuff" that is constantly subconsciously working in our muscular-skeletal system.

"You hold tension in your neck" is a remarkably complex statement (and solution).
It seems that 30% is for features that are delivery in app, since Uber and Deliveroo are delivered outside app they have a lower cut. It's just commission cut rules by Apple.

Regarding Apple Music I'm not sure what that supposed to mean. I'm pretty sure that Spotify doesn't charge the same for "Spotify Premium" and "McDonalds" ads.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Taiwan#Ethnici... says

"The ethnic groups of Taiwan may be roughly divided among Taiwanese (84%), mainland Chinese (14%), and indigenous peoples (2%). The ROC government reports that over 95% of the population is Han Chinese, which includes Hoklo, Hakka and other groups from mainland China."

So I guess "Chinese" is a shortcut for "Han Chinese"
But you needn't pay through the App Store to use that app (I have Spotify Premium and pay directly, and use the iOS app just fine)
> Templeton used the same strategy to try to identify race in human populations that evolutionary and population biologists use for non-human species, from salamanders to chimpanzees. He treated human populations as if they were non-human populations.

> "I'm not saying these results don't recognize genetic differences among human populations," he cautions. "There are differences, but they don't define historical lineages that have persisted for a long time. The point is, for race to have any scientific validity and integrity it has to have generality beyond any one species. If it doesn't, the concept is meaningless."

> Among Templeton's conclusions: there is more genetic similarity between Europeans and sub-Saharan Africans and between Europeans and Melanesians, inhabitants of islands northeast of Australia, than there is between Africans and Melanesians. Yet, sub-Saharan Africans and Melanesians share dark skin, hair texture and cranial-facial features, traits commonly used to classify people into races. According to Templeton, this example shows that "racial traits" are grossly incompatible with overall genetic differences between human populations.

The devices are currently costed for, presumably, a certain volume of support issues which I can only imagine is enormously minimised by the walled garden of the app store.

No, parent is rightfully pointing out that it's IQ in general, not any specific trait X. X could stand for race/skin color, but it could also stand for ancestry (e.g. Askenazi Jew, which IMO have same skin color as the rest of Europeans), or sex, or maybe other things as well.

The Rockefeller example, though frequently cited, is a red herring. Those companies were thereafter known as the "Seven Sisters" and not exactly known for truly competing with each other.

There was also a comment here I read recently about Rockefeller being a pretty activist shareholder, in the sense that he arranged meetings--using his considerable clout--among heads of the resulting companies, many of which were his most loyal former employees.
I think one of the basics ways for us to combat this kind of situations is to be more mindful about the people who do good. A single, thankful email from someone who profited from his work goes a long way.
> Whether you are white or black or have epicanthic fold or stuff like that is 100% encoded in your genes.

Sure, but that doesn't mean your race is. Race is a subjective classification based on objective characteristics.
This is a side effect that I'm willing to deal with. The problem with monopoly is not so much about the concentration of individual wealth in my mind, it's about the lack of competition between companies which make investment in R&D and innovation less of a factor to success.

Rockefeller rightfully became more wealthy when he owned a large portion of stock in very successful, but highly competitive companies, as opposed to an unchallenged behemoth. It would be like splitting your stake in Walmart into equal shares of Amazon, Target and Dollar Tree.

When I was a child, I would suffer from terrible muscle contractions in my calves. I would get a charlie horse in the middle of the night, and it would not go away completely for over a day. I couldn't put my foot flat to walk properly, and it was very painful. After about a dozen of these attacks, I noticed a pattern - they would occur on the night before something that I was dreading - a test I wasn't prepared for, a school dance, etc. Once I realized this, it never came back again. On the outside, it appeared that I was faking the muscle issues, but actually, my mind was causing charlie horses deliberately. It was very odd, but will always stick with me that the connections between body and mind are not well understood.

Making it so your data structures in a Saas platform can't instantly be ported to a competitor is standard and a no-brainer business practice in my opinion.

Spotify's complaint against Apple is that they're abusing the App Store platform to an anticompetitive end because non-Apple apps have disadvantages on the platform that Apple's competing apps don't.

I think this owning-the-platform-while-also-selling-on-it situation we see Apple, Amazon, and others in is something that we will see formal regulations appear on in the coming decade.
On Safari, for the home page, I just see a blank page, and a TypeError in the console.

The other pages work, but it looks like I'm getting some sort of blown-up mobile view, even on my desktop. The text and buttons are 2 or 3 inches tall.

It's a cool concept, and launching is always the hard part, so I know it's only going to get better from here on out.

UPDATE: In Firefox, the home page is also blank. I don't see a TypeError but I'm having trouble figuring out the JS console. The other pages are normal-sized, not mobile views.
I'm trying it out now. I'm trying to check the search feature. I'm assuming that it will display YouTube previews when you select 'Search'.

Right now, I'm not seeing anything populate.

The other features work though (e.g. the text editor and font-changing). Am I doing something wrong?
Brand guide as a tool to create content for clients?
After building websites for a number of clients, getting the right content to put on the page was a challenge.

On one hand, content should come with the website, so my responsibility. On the other hand, only the client knows their values and vision, so they should be able to provide content for the website.

I learned that the wrong thing to do was to just ask the client for 'content' for this page or that page. Trying to distill their company's essence into something web-ready for particular pages of their site wasn't easy.

However, clients can talk out loud about their company. I learned if we had meetings, I could understand the company by asking the right questions. At that point, I could create the content for their site myself.

The result was that I stopped giving my clients extra work, and website projects stopped getting stuck at the content stage.

What I learned was that very frequently, the questions I needed to ask were in 2 major categories: style (colors, fonts, etc), and culture (mission, vision, values, voice). All those items are covered in a good brand guide.

So I got to thinking, does it make sense to walk a client through a brand guide prior to making a site for them?

Has anyone else tried this?

I've recently launched a web app that guides clients through the process. But I'm wondering if anyone else is doing something similar?
> We – and our partners – use cookies to deliver our services and to show you ads based on your interests.

Being anti competitive and being a monopoly are 2 similar but different things. What we are seeing today is the same as train Barron's of us history they control the track/os and do all they can to make it harder/costlier for others to move stuff on their tracks doesn't matter if they own all the tracks/OS or not.

Right, ditto with AT&T. That's the point. Monopolies haven't always been able to resist being broken up -- but they have always been able to arrange the breakup so that the pieces don't compete and don't shift bargaining power to the consumer.
> As a premium subscriber it's very frustrating to not be able to pause music on the lockscreen anymore. Or using the headphone controls.

I just wanted to say that I am also a Spotify Premium subscriber using the Android (Pie) app and I don't have any issues with these two features. I cannot comment on the blocked songs, since I do not use that functionality. Have you checked the forums to see if other users are experiencing the same problems? Maybe there is a specific fix for your device.
Are you saying charging high tuition is responsible for making US universities better? Correlation alone does not equal causation. Is there any evidence for this statement?

I disagree entirely with this. The difference is clear -- data is not operational on its own, it requires something to operate on it. So in terms of trust, I only have to trust the software operating on the data -- and I have many choices of software to use to do that.

Code is operational, and I have to trust the code itself rather than a tool.

>Until they actually ship, the Model Y is as much vaporware as Rivian.

This is absurd IMO. Tesla has now produced several hundred thousand cars. To suggest they have as much credibility as a company who hasn't even created ONE car (please find me a video of someone actually driving it) is crazy. We can all at least assume if Tesla is still viable when Y production is slated, that it will actually be a car.

So I’ve been working remotely for the past 3 years and whenever I search for things like “tips for managing virtual teams” or “flexible workforce tips”, I get back super vague listicles with advice like “hire well”, or “engage often”. While true, I’ve always found the results incredibly unhelpful.

This made me want to create a “deeper” article about some of the psychology that I think influences remote teams, along with some thoughts around what leaders can do to combat some of the pitfalls.

I decided to combine my viewpoints with three of my favourite books: Give and Take, Algorithms to Live By, and the Four Tendencies.

I’m interested to hear what other remote workers think. Does remote work influence the give/take balance? Do we need to be more intentional about how we’re designing remote systems? Do you think we can learn anything from the four tendencies data?

PS: If anyone has links to articles that dig deep into the psychology of remote work, I’d love to read them.
Here's my attempt at distilling it:

"Normally in a quantum computer, if we apply measurement function F to input x so y=F(x), it's impossible to reverse F and turn y into x. However, if we constrain y, we can make a special function G_Y such that x=G_Y(y)"

Whilst I don't have time to really dive through all the sections, this seems weirdly click-baity and IBM-promoting for an academic article.

Minor nitpick: it's actually more expensive to execute someone than to imprison them for life, mostly because of the increased legal costs.
Spotify seems to focus on IAP, but if you purchased Spotify Premium outside of IAP, it works just fine with that app.
The problem with going that route is that you have to be involved in creating and maintaining a great user experience. I love ubuntu, but it's not without it's quirks that require a certain amount of troubleshooting to overcome.
