When I get into my car, I expect Spotify to resume playing where it left off last time. I don’t want to unlock my phone, or even take it out of my handbag. I certainly don’t want to open the web browser for this to work.

How is a web app supposed to achieve that on iOS?

Edit: grammar
That's a tough situation. It's good that you tried.
Haha, so this is what happened? I had a big WTF moment.

ART is the Android RunTime, basically the large majority of Android's userspace.

Those native libraries are forbidden to use Linux specific features, only these APIs are sancioned.

https://developer.android.com/ndk/guides/stable_apis

Since Android 7, Google has been claping down NDK users that try to used anything that isn't part of that list.

Since Android 8, APKs are only allowed to reach for their own internal filesystem and use SAF for anything else. Something that will be further enforced on Android Q, so no luck trying to peek into /dev, /share and similar.
Based on this presentation I found [1] it appears that even just encoding the character composition would be more difficult than for Chinese, and the level of artistic freedom demonstrated in the examples on slide 9 makes me doubtful that it could be replicated by just a few simple rules.

On the other hand, people are working on it, so Mayan will probably at some point end up included in Unicode.

Second line : "I work as a LANGUAGE Developer/Architect, I have X years of experience and my main skills are ..."

Extra details of whether is a remote position would be interesting as well. For replies to top level entries, comments of whether the person is being lowballed or not would help, even if you prefer not to give your rate yourself.

The big ones will be fine. They are already using filters. It's all the forums and such that have no way to implement the technology that the upcoming directive calls for, and they will have no choice but to block EU. Regarding news sites - usually it's the comments section that's the user created content, so I guess they could simply remove that for EU visitors, or, if that feels like a hassle, just block EU.
Well, you can have all the fancy algorithms you want but currently software performance is dominated by memory access patterns. Often the best solution is an algorithm with suboptimal complexity but superior memory access patterns. See for example sorting algorithm performance. Nobody operating at scale can afford to ignore cache effects.

Regarding your first comment, see https://danluu.com/intel-cat/
Of course we tried that first. My wife tried, their uncle tried, their cousins tried. I was the last resort.

I agree that it’s best now to back off. There’s nothing else I can do. It hurts me to see my wife in additional pain because she’s not allowed to talk to the medical staff herself. She has medical training and is likely to understand the medical “Mumbo Jumbo” better than anyone else in the family.
NVC perhaps is often employed in situations that don't quite require that degree of formulation, but when parties have been bickering so much that even simple "Hello" courtesies get interpreted as passive aggression, the structure of NVC allows the building of communication.

Anything that gets and keeps both parties talking in these situations, even by marginal degrees, is worth everything.
If it is indeed true that platforms that don't allow monetisation are still allowed, then yes, you can upload your creations safely. You'll just be unable to make money from it.
Even if that's true, I don't think it's the kind of comment I want to see here on HN. Silence is golden.
You can turn this on but the dumps are kind of huge. Also, you can attach to a running JVM and get a memory dump that way. NPEs don't bring down the JVM though unless that happens in your main method of course, in which case the process exits normally.
It takes two to tango here.

I have felt this too and it turns out I leave my startups around 200 people -- when I can no longer remember everybody's name instantly.

(but where's the line? I worked with a guy who wouldn't work for a company of more than a dozen people. I've looked at his linkedin over the years and indeed he worked for some phenomenal startups...but always left when the started to grow).

What about those "africanized" honey bees in the news a decade or so back?
Very lengthy article. This part about Walmart made me raise an eyebrow, and I’ll admit, I kept reading to see if the author addresses this further because at that point I felt biased against this article but didn’t want to pass judgement and stop reading prematurely.

>It is the most successful social welfare system ever implemented, saving billions and billions of dollars for everyday Americans without costing taxpayers a dime.

I stopped reading half way through. I fundamentally disagree with that statement. A good chunk of Walmart’s workforce were scheduled to work part time hours to avoid receiving any benefits, and of course they were subsidized by the tax payer.

I would know - in the mid 90s, I was one of them! Tencare provided my health coverage, my 6 year old received free lunch, I had reduced rent, and I had assistance for groceries.
Arguably, this news may be the most real confirmation that Dragonfly isn't going to happen. As Google likely would not increase it's investment in Taiwan while trying to get China on board with their return to China's search market.
Depending on your present calorie consumption you can start reducing calories by really concentrating on the fats you're including in your everyday diet. I'm not saying fats are bad, but that there is double the calories per unit of fat versus carbs and protein. Start concentrating on replacing some of those fats with purer protein and high fiber foods. This way you've already reduced calories, but not how much you're eating. I started with getting out of the habit of always having whole milk on hand at home, for example. You'd be surprised by how much you can curb your appetite by just leaning a bit more on high fiber foods and protein.

I combined this with being more mindful of how much I exercised that day. If I did exercise that day I don't use it as an excuse to binge eat anything.

I also try to push breakfast out until around 10am (I wake up around 7am, and usually stop eating by 8pm the previous day). Not sure if that counts as fasting, but it works for me. I tried 16 hours of fasting (basically no eating until lunch) and I just ended up binge-eating the calories I saved by not eating. Your mileage may vary.

After getting to work I have about a quart of water, then a coffee. If I feel on the edge of "I need a snack" sometimes it can be enough to just have another pint of water in response to that feeling.

Last, I really tried to get an understanding for how many calories are in particular foods and how many calories I really need per day. Use a calorie calculator to get a feeling for how much you burn while doing certain exercises. Learn how many calories are in common items that you eat all the time. Find optimizations if they are particularly high in calories. Then, after you've learned a bit, stop stressing about the numbers, take your newfound knowledge and see how you do.
Interesting, is there a technical reason for not using that extra data to help with the process?

For example, another commenter mentioned

> Some materials don't really contain any surface details that the algorithms could use to attach feature points to, so they will be blank. Large white walls and large windows are especially difficult.

Seems like you might be able to position some of these with orientation data from the camera.

Adding Elvis and safe navigation operators to Java was discussed before Java 7, over 10 years ago. Sadly they never made it even to the official proposal lists and with Optional introduced in Java 8 I don't think we'll get them any time soon.

Try not being a mobile app developer? A bit less snarky:

- Develop mobile apps for a company rather than sell your own on Play/App store.
- Develop non-mobile apps.
- Not-app programming (business automation, infra, embedded, etc).
- Get out of programming entirely.

This is basically the same message for all the other displaced/disrupted jobs (coal miners, bank clerks, lift operators, cashiers). Nobody owes anybody a livelihood for a fairly narrow/specific field. Especially not in "mobile app development" which 10 years ago was close to non-existent as as job title.

>Because now a startup has less than 3 years to add this content filtering, which provided as a service or not, is going to cost €€€.

Not really? This isn't a flat 'you need to pay 10k a yr regardless of your size' imposition. Proportionality is important.

The articles, as written, are interesting because they already mention a ton of the balancing considerations. All of those are completely absent in these conversations.

Do you know why that's an issue? Because sometime soon people are going to start getting bullshit copyright trolling demand letters, and all this furor about how the internet is dead is going to convince them to close up shop or cave instead of saying 'nah, serve me your originating documents, this is a bogus claim'.

And that's how the internet will die.

>Do you think Spotify would be able to grow if it was created on March 27 2019 instead of 2008?

If the competitive landscape was the same? Yes. In fact, Spotify's arc is exactly what this law is attempting to encourage. As they grew, they became a quasi licensing clearinghouse instead of another Napster or Limewire. That's the entire point.

>how is this a good thing?

Because you don't end up with 1 compliance service, and you can litigate against the compliance service if they're inappropriately killing your content creation business. As it stands now, if you try to fight YouTube or the content delivery pipeline itself on the basis of their filters, you die. That's not necessarily the case if there's a healthy competitive filter ecosystem. Whether or not we get to that point is another question, though.
Not much is known about the sequel yet, so it's too early to tell. I doubt they'll skip such opportunity.

China is their biggest market. Would be a bit stupid to get your products banned from your biggest market over something so simple.

Not that I agree with Chinese practices.
"Is there something you want me to do?" is a slightly less hostile way of saying "Get to the point."

"The petitioner did not make a request upon which relief can be granted." might set off a snark detector, and "The ticketing system already automatically notifies the requester that their ticket has been closed." might inadvertently imply that the supervisor does not know how to do their job.
I agree in principle and I hate being put in the middle of this. I responded to some other similar comments on this sub-thread but the short of it is that I was asked to do this by the family (not my wife) because nobody else can get through to him.
PTSD is serious but most people that think they need trigger warnings don’t have anything close to clinical PTSD, they are mostly spoiled middle class leftist trying to make themselves more interesting.

The immune system is the best analog. Lack of exposure to the things with the potential to harm you makes you far more susceptible to legitimate harm. But a compromised system is a compromised system, and should be treated as such; the healthy dose of exposure is not the same for everyone.

I would say that the problem with the current milieu is a matter of magnitude, or lack thereof, as it puts very little value in the utility of any exposure whatsoever, and far under-qualifies the necessary criteria for a compromised system.

You haven't lived next to retired people with nothing but free time on their hands.

A large part of us moving out of the suburbs and somewhere rural was the adjacent retired neighbors always being in our business. I'm all for being a considerate neighbor but there's little substitute for a lot of space between you and your neighbor.
> I grew up in the USSR. How could I possibly understand what socialism is?

I don't doubt you have a very good understanding of the Soviet type, due to your experience there. However, your original comment seemed to present a false binary choice between Western capitalism and that Soviet-style centrally-planned socialism. It's clear that Chomsky opposes both the former and the latter, so brining up the latter seems like a bit of a straw man in the context of this video and its subject.
Is it even possible that that could not be an evaluation? I've been on both sides of that exchange, and it never even occurred to me that pointing out a ticket wasn't properly filled out was an evaluation. The ticket itself is often the only proof you actually did your job, after all.

Personally, if I'm on the receiving end of that, I'd rather the boss say, "please update this ticket with X and Y" rather than making an "observation." It can't be condescending nor manipulative since that person is plainly exercising their authority. And you can generally resolve problems with an instruction by pointing out that it won't work, or it conflicts with others, etc., which avoids it getting personal.

(This may be why I rarely had these issues in the military, and noticed that many veterans report a great deal of confusion when they get into civilian life because "nobody knows their lane.")
No, it's best-case O(1), worst-case O(n) (technically O(1) since there is a constant upper-bound, but let's pretend you said it's O(n) when length is divisible by 50 instead of equal to 50) and average-case O(1).

Each of those functions has its own big O, without specifying which function you are talking about big O isn't meaningful.
Trying overly hard to make something seem more objective is in a sense an obfuscation of what you really think. Sometimes you need to cut the BS and tell people what's actually on your mind.

In my experience there are two types of coworkers: those that respond well to BS (read: couched language) and those that don't. You just have to recognize who is who.
for one, after some scala exposure, I am missing the "simplicity" of java.
Any feedback will be greatly appreciated. :)
In general I'm also not a fan of changing definitions of words for the extra pathos and marketability. I also would be surprised if Rosenberg has any sort of malicious intent here in his choice of wording.

Violence is, by definition, physical, and claiming that "speech is violence" seems like a trivialization of actual physical violence.

While there is evidence that certain types of psychological abuse can cause a physical reaction akin to that experienced by victims of physical violence, those cases are extremely rare and shouldn't be used as justification for this sort of rebranding.
This is too much of a hack; I predict it will be unreliable, at times sending programmers on wild goose chases more time-wasting than an uninformed investigation.
No, you're measuring improvement to the POP where you peer with Google.

Unless you're telling me that Google is giving you access to its private networks all the way to the datacenters, which I'd find hard to believe.

Between you and a Google Datacenter, most of the path is through Google's private networks.

Q&A – EU Parliament's vote in favour of modernised rules fit for digital age
On social media platforms, pointing out the common Nazi-Soviet victory parade in Brest-Litovsk tends to get a lot of negative attention from Russia-minded activists (one often wonders how many of those accounts are real, but perhaps it is unimportant).
Pretty much what you can expect from Business Insider.

Is there a Mumble with video feed?
this is good stuff. please come back 10 years ago and do it!
it's just a tz library to update, assuming you're using a tz library. Any poorly localized software is going to have issues.

The challenge is actually getting that update pushed out to everything that needs it. Every embedded and IoT device needs to get a new tz database, and any applications that might use a different tz database to the system one need to be updated. It's not significant programming work necessarily, but it's still probably going to cause a significant number of bugs in reality.
I'm always amazed how many video games have shitty built in voice chat when they could have just embedded mumble.
Fun story. Btw, is that an emoji? Thought they were stripped from input.
Kind of, XAML Controls aren't the best experience from C++/CX point of view vs C#/VB.NET/JS and C++/WinRT still is catching with what C++/CX offers.

I seem to remember that too, null pointer exception coughs up more than enough information to figure out where it barfed.

Makes me feel that complaints about null aren't really about null itself but languages and OS's not generating useful error messages.
I visited Taiwan recently and was shocked by the weird economics there. Rent, food, clothing, and labor are extremely cheap. Foreign goods and property are insanely expensive. It's clear there's wealth, as I saw several dozen rare BMWs and Audis, and some Lambos, Ferraris, Bentleys. But then I read that the average annual salary of a new university graduate is $11,000 USD.

It's also a very friendly place to foreigners. I'm surprised there aren't any enterprising people jumping from Shenzhen to Taipei now that Shenzhen is so expensive.

> honeybees perform some level of pollination of nearly 75% of all plant species directly used for human food worldwide.

Bees pollinate 75% of species, but not 75% of calories. The major cereals (wheat, corn, rice) are all self or wind pollinating, as are number of other staples (e.g. potatoes, peas).
Interesting that this was flagged for a minute there but came back. Did the mods manually unflag?
What I mean, to produce the dump in the case of exceptions that percolate to top level and exit the process or thread (such as NPE). I am aware that I can attach, but that kind of defeats the ability to get the information in case of unexpected error (in production). Dumps might be huge, but is that really a problem on modern hardware? On z/OS this is doable (and common practice).
From what I vaguely recall experimenting with Mumble years ago - my biggest gripe was the lack of support for anything other certificate based user authentication which complicates the common case of "User X would like to be able to access Mumble from multiple machines".
