Elizabeth Warren apparently knows very little about Apple; she's making a random and meaningless recommendation based in ignorance.

Her rationale for breaking up Apple is "you’ve got to break it apart from their App Store. It’s got to be one or the other. Either they run the platform or they play in the store."

But Apple mostly doesn't "play in the store." Aside from Final Cut and Logic Pro, they sell virtually no products in the app store.

All the apps that Apple sells combined together amount to a tiny fraction of one percent of Apple's revenues. It's probably not even one-tenth of one percent. Apple doesn't care at all about this revenue. I'm not sure why Elizabeth Warren cares about it. They could spin their apps off into a separate company, like they did with Claris years ago, but I doubt they'd even bother; they'd either just kill the products or, more likely, give them away for free. (Unless Warren thinks Apple shouldn't be able to provide free software to users, in which case she should really stop while she's not too far behind.)
I do think that history isn't nearly as hard on him as it should be. He is easily as bad as Pol Pot or Hitler.

But my college roommate got the symbol of Stalin's state tattooed on him because he said it was cool and ironic. This disgusted our friend who's parent's escaped communist Poland, but nobody really cared. Of course, if he had got a swastika tattoo he would have essentially written himself out of society, however you are permitted to express admiration of communism without really getting in trouble.
I just read that the software update for MCAS (the Lion Air crash cause) had been delayed and isn't rolling out until next month. If that's true, seems to raise the probability of this being a similar MCAS issue.

Employee discounts, but what about commission sales?

A few years ago, I bought a well reviewed sound bar in the mid price range on Amazon. It sounded awful and I packed it up and sent it back.

I did more research and decided to spend 3x as much on a premium soundbar, as long as the audio quality was better than the cheap one- so I had to hear it first.

Local Best Buy website showed the model I was interested in in stock, so I went in.

The demo unit wasn't working, nor were the other models I may have considered. The employee I asked about this just shrugged his shoulders and walked away- and couldn't answer any other questions about the unit.

I had walked in, cash in hand, with intention to buy on the spot. I walked out empty handed and went back to Amazon.

Retail's differentiator should be seeing products hands on, and sales assistance from real people. Once Amazon nails immediate gratification, it's all retail will have left.

There should be acknowledgement that so much was initiated by his work. Perhaps via xxx-Euler's formula or something.
I was on the team that wrote the requirements for the original version of Radar, in 1988. At that time each department was using it's own flat file database for bugs. Also at that time, there was a very large testing group. All testers at Apple were together: more than 400 testers. We had a strong culture of testing. We had pride in ourselves and our company. This was pretty much thrown away when the group was disbanded in 1989. Professional testing culture was replaced with the attitude that only developers mattered. Hurray for "Total Quality Management" and later Agile, I imagine. I was gone by '91.

We originally designed Radar so that bugs would be verified as closed by the person with most interest in seeing this happen: the tester assigned to that part of that project. Then management swooped in with an edict that bugs must be verified as closed by whomever originally reported them. This is a stupid idea, because it creates the perverse incentive that no one should report a problem if they are outside the team (because then you are committing to verify the fix, which just means more work for you that has nothing to do with any of your main responsibilities).

When I pointed out that the system would now discourage people on different teams from helping each other, the sponsoring director said "that's what pink slips are for." Direct quote. Soon after that I resigned from the design team.

Without reasonably skilled and principled leadership, you just don't get quality software. And "quality is everyone's job" is just an empty and childish slogan. Excellence is not transmitted through slogans and wishful thinking. You have to assign responsibility, provide resources and time (which means lowering velocity of new development), and follow-up.

The fundamental reason why it doesn't happen is the technology market is not efficient. Quality is, in fact, not as important as career testers wish it were. You can get away with doing terrible work and not lose your job. The fact that Apple pays no significant penalties for having buggy products insulates it from our slings and arrows.

It's 2019. That argument would hold more weight if FAANG weren't aleady in the payments market ( eg: apple.com/applepay , pay.google.com ). If they aren't banks now, they will be soon.
so this means you have implemented scrum not efficiently.

if you work in an inverted pyramid where the team has autonomy (within boundaries) - scrum doesn't become a reporting tool it is for the team. since there is nothing else "above" the team.

The story points are a measure. That help your team to plan a sprint nothing else.

I mentor individuals looking to transition into data science. I can say without a doubt that those who do the best (get the best jobs) are those with domain expertise and who are able to leverage that expertise in a data science realm.

Of course, domain expertise is hard to come by and takes years to develop. I look forward to data science leaving far behind the notion that "you too can become a data scientist with 3 weeks of Python + scikit-learn".

The incident definitely bears a lot of similarities to the recent Lion Air crash that prompted that report (control issues shortly after takeoff, followed by a high energy impact).
Everyone winds up sporting their allegience to Nike or Adidas or Puma or Under Armour or Reebok or Lululemon or whatever it is.

As someone who spends 99% of his life in Adidas "athleisure" clothing, that's sorta part of the point for me. It just feels nice associating myself with their brand for some reason, no idea why. I guess it's like how some people associate themselves with their town, football team, or text editor, perhaps.

Adapters, Bridges and Typeclasses in Scala
I upvoted to acknowledge your reply.

I was kinda hoping you'd mention someone new. Or at least someone who had something new to say.

I like Tyler Cowen. He really challenges my own views.

I also highly value Tim Pool's and Jonathan Haidt's criticisms of the left. Alas, they're also from the left.

I actually don't know anyone (contemporary) from the right criticizing the right, along the same lines as Pool and Haidt do for the left.

For instance, I have no idea, beyond denial, what the (contemporary) right's views are towards climate change, globalization, criminal justice reform, inequity, the end of work (AI & robots), food security, poverty, shareholder rights, privacy, forced arbitration, late stage capitalism, nuclear proliferation, mitigating environmental damage (eg Butte MT, Hanford). Etc.

FWIW, I scanned NRO, to assess its current incarnation. Charitably, it's still stuck in the horse race mindset, reactionary. Uncharitably, it's TLDR is: Rich good, liberals bad.

It's almost as if the right has run out of things to say.

Which I find very sad. I fundamentally consider myself a conservative. Raised Republican and in the church, defender of rights, law & order, etc. And it's been a very long time since any one on the right spoke for me. While GWB was probably sincere with his "compassionate conservative" rhetoric, sadly, he had little company.

It was not rectified. It is analogous because it was a heavily leveraged lie — lots of policy consequences flowed from it.

It’s not the size of the lie, it’s the degree to which you can leverage it. For policy makers, the best practice is to use plausibly deniable, small, but highly leveraged lies.

That's a good point, there's huge market demand for technology and talent in the cloud native space.

However I don't see how Docker Inc can be substainable in the long run.

What's most likely to happen is Docker being acqui-hired by someone like Microsoft.
Using a metric such as revenue is too simplistic. There are some concerns about power over competitors, consumers, etc., but arbitrarily setting the measure af revenue of X per year (plus inflationary adjustment of whatever) is not the way to go about it, but maybe this is a ruse to get a constituency excited and doesn’t really mean it.

I do believe some of thd giants have too much leverage but I don’t see anything magical about $25BB/year.
I believe “banking” in this context isn’t “retail banking” (moving money around) but “investment banking”. It’s good to have some reasonable regulation of the former, but it’s the latter that allegedly poses a threat to the economy at large.

FAANG is unlikely to sell CDOs around “likes and shares” ;)
You want to separate app and OS dependencies because in the future you could have the need to update the system which would mean rebuilding the docker package. In the future it can happen you are no longer able to reproduce your app build. But when you have the app package separate in some repository you can just create a new docker image but reuse the old app package without rebuilding it.
Nice. According to the wp_users table there are 3 users, all nearly exactly 1 year old (2018-03-03, 2018-03-05, 2018-03-17).What are the chances that's a coincidence?

I don't think this paper is related to free will, or if they even claimed it is. It's just sensational title.

The choice is completely non-consequential, it's picking between 2 patterns. The brain choose based on it's initial biases. It's like when you are turning off your brain watching youtube videos, it's likely that you will open another video after that instead of going back to your work because there is a strong pre-existing brain activity related to whatever you're watching.

What I'm saying is it isn't like some directive from the subconscious that you cannot go against, it's more like one room is filled with sweets and the other is filled with nothing. The choice is still taken at the moment.
Lol at the lengths of Musk bashing that happens here. He isn't around SpaceX? It's surviving despite him? He's a drain on Tesla?

I had the same realisation years ago when I was going through a bit of a James Bond phase. I realised that all of Bond's clothes that aren't suits are block colours, with no embellishments.

I wonder whether those flights will happen on those planes. There are only a few hundred MAXs in existence, and now two new ones have failed. Grounding the fleet wouldn't feel like an overreaction to me.
I find that the intuitive idea of free will doesn't make all that much sense anyway. Leave aside the discussion of whether people have free will in this universe, how would a universe in which people actually have what most people call free free will even work?

Legislation requires a 2/3rds control of government. The republicans have a stranglehold on the US senate due to every state getting two senators. There are simply more rural, conservative states than would tolerate that change.

Warrens idea points out a better idea. Presidential candidates from non-republicans can do their most work with powers the presidency already has: drug criminalization, immigration, pardon powers, etc. I’m pretty sure a president can break up companies under the trust buster acts from the late 1800s, but I'm basing that on decades old public schooling.

The parent comment merely said delayed MCAS training would make it more likely that it was the cause. That seems like an obviously true statement... If the training had happen, that would obviously make it less likely.

Given the number of other similarities to the Lion Air crash, I think the parent comment was being pretty conservative in their speculation (at this point, I'd be surprised if it _wasn't_ MCAS related).
The sysdiagnose does contain useful information that is useful for certain bugs. If an app crashes, then the crash report is essential. The log file is also (sometimes) useful. It is easier to ask for a sysdiagnose that gathers the kitchen sink instead of the developer just providing the piece needed (ie: the leaky faucet). -corbin

Granted, I know a lot more about women's high fashion and the culture that surrounds it than about men's fashion and business culture but as a crude example: someone who's wearing stuff like D&G and Versace and someone who's wearing Yohji Yamamoto and Comme des Garçons are probably people with drastically different interests, professions, circles, values etc. Think conventionally glamorous vs avant-garde artsy crowd.

To emphasize the point on the value of signaling - I know plenty of people who actively avoid branded items that could easily fit into their budgets because they think it's ridiculous to pay the premium - this is also signaling, especially if you belong to a tribe that knows you have that sort of money. Gets lost in the mental calculus of why a person buys a certain good (value, function, etc.), but as another commenter pointed out, luxury designer brands often fit better which makes the wearer look better, and the decision is rarely just about about which item provides more value for the 'cover a part of your body' use.

You can't really contribute to a 401(k) plan unless your employer sponsors one. When you leave the job you can roll it over to an IRA. Some independent contractors can contribute to an IRA, but it's inferior because the annual contribution limit is only $6000, and the income limits are lower. And of course employer matching contributions aren't available to independent contractors.
