I love the app used to manage spending and paying your bill. It'll definitely be super easy to stay on budget given the fact that you'll have immediate access to up-to-date spending and trends, whereas if I want to do that with my Chase account, I need to login, run numbers, etc.

There seems to be a subfocus here about helping you manage your spending, which I can appreciate. The problem with ease of spending money is ease of going into debt, I think I could make this work for my wife and I fairly well, and easily at that.

Of course, the practicality of this for each person depends on their typical spending patterns and how often they can use Apple Pay in the first place. If you shop at places that don't accept it, you're pretty much out of luck.

Interesting foray into a gigantic industry that loves preying on people's inability to be responsible, though. I can think of a lot of people who could use more oversight with their spending.
If you don't know how to grow food, there's this project that will seed and take care of plants https://farm.bot From what I read, this produces enough veggies for a family of four all year round.

Now producing beans, rice or wheat is another matter. I don't think its possible without moving to your own farm
Yes, and ultimately Goldman Sachs is a bank and will be held accountable for anything that happens. This is a GS product that Apple gets a significant cut of.

Typically, touchpads and touchscreens send a complete pixel map (with pressure info if available) to the touch controller, and the touch controller filters that large amount of information into very minimal messages for finger-tracking and touch points. Some devices do substitute the CPU for the touch controller, though.

I made one up, as I wasn't aware of any like that. I'll write it up at some point though.
Would they be able to start offering discounts for those who make purchases with an Apple Card vs other credit card? Would be interesting to see if we are having a “credit card neutrality” discussion here in the not too distant future.
I evaluated Borg and Restic and found that both of them fall over once you get to (what I consider to be) production level volumes; in my case that's ~1 PB and in the range of a billion files.

Sadly, the only thing I've found so far that works at all at those scales is Bacula, and that is file-based -- i.e., if you have a gigabyte file that changes by one byte, it backs up the whole gigabyte again. Not ideal.
This is a HUGE deal for heavily used electronics that tend to fail around the end of the warranty. Amex has paid money back to me for major repairs on the last two MacBook Pros and they paid me the cost of replacing an iPhone 6s when the headphone jack failed.
I did not know that screenshot was a feature in Firefox, and I suspect that almost no one does.

Seriously, where is it? It's not an ANY of the menus, at not on Mac OS.
Our measurements occur across billions of light-years. By comparing redshift agaist the standard candles we measure relative speeds of vastly distant objects. And given the speed of light, we are also measuring what those speeds were billions of years ago. It is a very big ruler.
Who says it's just angels? Maybe it's a symptom of the entire economy. If you told me that curve represented the silicon valley economy I'd be inclined to believe.

> Once you start looking for it, you'd be surprised at how many places offer. I've never "seen" anyone else using it, but I'm in the position to "see" only a few minutes each week as I'm waiting in line.

Isn't this because Apple Pay is essentially built on top of the Visa/Mastercard/Amex contactless solutions?
Personally I like Benj. Franklin's maxims better. Much the same content, but pithier.
As a non US person. Can someone explain the innovation of this? What should be better here? Is there anything I have missed?
As I understand from the Wikileaks cables, the American government prevented Russia to establish their own credit card system. So they can better spy on the people as they have full access to MasterCard and visacards transactions. So how can this be about privacy?
Apple's partnering with Goldman Sachs and Mastercard to do payment processing, I don't think Apple themselves are doing payment processing per se, neither they are certified to do it. What they can do is to generate alternative account numbers and passing that along with transaction details to Goldman Sachs(which is a bank)/ Mastercard (top 2 payment processing network) for actual payment processing.
I don’t think people are wondering what problems crypto currencies are trying to solve, more whether they are a good way to solve them.
The best Apple or anyone else can do in terms of a controller is make an exact copy of Sony's DS4.
I think, the parent comment meant that they would like to get a virtual card, so that they can attach it to a service (e.g., create a virtual card for paying your netflix subscription only, and then another card for hulu only, etc.), and then simply remove that virtual card when they want to stop using that service. Especially helpful if the service makes you jump through a ton of hoops to cancel your subscription.
thats exactly how you pay the credit card bill in the US, via a direct transfer from your bank account or by sending a check

Not the same thing, as you pay for a license to play each game individually. But, I see what you're saying.
I bought the same laptop and was very disappointed by the touchpad.

particularly the physical clicking. It got progressively harder to click as you moved up from the bottom 1/4 of the touchpad.
No he doesn't. Comparing Iraq to India is just such a big Joke. Just look at the massive population difference between the two countries (37 mil v/s 1500 mil).
Of course it's difficult to get jobs there, so how will you buy the cheap land?
> On the one hand, he is trying to teach people the importance of empathy and perspective taking for any creative individual.

This is the bridge that connects the two: person who doesn't care to read a message - person who wants people to care about a message. That bridge needs to be built for each message. Furthermore, sometimes the message-sender doesn't have the choice to opt not to create X (i.e. it's their job to). So you're safer assuming no one wants to read your shit.

Case in point. My husband is applying for jobs right now. He's not getting any responses other than generic GFY form letters. I looked at his resume and said it was poorly formatted. I would click decline/next if I reviewed it. I know this because I'm a hiring manager who just went through 250 resumes for a position I need to fill.

I'm trying to teach him to have empathy for the reader: recruiters/HMs have hundreds of candidates to review and they're strapped for time. Make it easy for them to click "yes" by using the fewest words and best formatting to say "I have the experience to do this job, and I will do it well."

To your second point: he could find advocates by networking and going to job fairs to meet recruiters in person. You generally have more than 10 seconds to impress in that situation. But that's a second facet to messaging strategy that's independent of the "no one wants to read your shit" aspect. Doing both is necessary to have your message heard.
I want to thank-you for using a good-name for your service.

Too many times some developer will pick a common word to launch their service/product thus making it impossible to search for it.

Your name
(a) is a single syllable

(b) almost hints at what it does in the name (Baxxup?)

(c) is not easily confused with other products

(d) Your closest competitor from a google SEO standpoint is a tanning salon (single word google)

Great job! I wish I was creative like that. Usually my crap looks like: sbs (server backup script)
Works for me but my co-workers hate me.
Far as I know, this doesn't come with an annual fee. If you only plan to use it with Apple Pay, it's competitive with Citi Double Cash, which is considered one of the top tier cash-back cards you don't pay yearly for. It seems fairly competitive to me.
Have you tried Zotero with the Zotfile extension?
There is no edge. It defies the normal way of thinking but every point in the universe is also the center of the universe. The Big Bang happened at every point and space-time is expanding at every point.
The insight that communication is inherently transactional explains a lot about advertising/media. Maybe others find it obvious. But it took me a long time to figure out explicitly and work out the ramifications.
Brilliant comment, I've had this understand for a while myself. We can legislate ourselves to a higher standard of working/living, but the work then becomes a premium and will support fewer people, as outsourcing occurs, to automation and other workforce that doesn't demand such benefits.

What does that make the person who demands a better working condition for themselves, but is fine that a percentage of work is outsourced to a sweatshop?
Yes that scared me. Extreme activists can cut you off from access to payment processors. We are a relatively cashless society and you are potentially at the mercy of the mob to survive. The mob’s definition of a Nazi becomes broader every day. I truly believe the pendulum is swinging the other way however. Once corporations realize that, this should stop. 4 years ago the majority stood with the mob because they like me believed the mob had decent ideals but were overzealous. Every day more people discover that the mob are morons on a power trip and a sense of morality more infantile than good/evil children stories.
If you are looking for a cartel, look no further than experian, transunion et al. Those firms define your credit worthiness and are hacked at will, spilling out all you credit and PII info.
the underutilization of modern cpus?
I've done it before.

Never for truly big ticket items, but sometimes the $5 or whatever in interest to carry a small balance for a month isn't worth the extra effort it would take to free up the cash I'd need to pay it off in full without dipping below the minimum balance I like to keep in my checking account, and it's also not worth $5 to me to wait another month before replacing that busted transmission.
As others pointed out, there is software for it. Many people use Postfix as main software and then combine it with Dovecot for IMAP.

But of course there are other softwares and the choice pretty much depends on your requirements regarding scale, security and ease of setup or maintenance. The reason why things are so scattered is probably because even in basic setups, there are a number of technologies involved, like for Spam filtering, SPF and DKIM. And not many people do this kind of thing because there's Gmail. ;-)

But if you are just looking for anything to get started, there are some Docker setups which do exactly what you ask for: https://github.com/tomav/docker-mailserver
I don't see why you'd need to fork libinput. I'm fine with my cursor movements, what I want is gestures, and libinput already delivers those. It is up to the desktop environment to implement them (PROPERLY).

I have taken a look at the libinput-debug sample code and my main DE (Gala, written in Vala, which is a frontend for C), with the resulting opinion that for someone decently-experienced it should be fairly easy to do. Unfortunately I am not that person (yet).
Casual gamers and kids.

My kids enjoy tremendously Minecraft, Roblox and the Lego franchise games.

None of those require top-end graphics, yet offer engaging gameplay for a large audience.
Aha. "for the purpose of..." Clears it up. Turns it into an argument about intent.
I think this conclusion was fairly obvious, the key point is that realising the neurons don't grow as quickly as they do in our early years.

Maybe if you don't pay your balance every month, but the rewards are very real for me.
> Linux touchpad scores on par with Macbook touchpad per mouseaccuracy.com testing. As of today, I can consistently score twice as high on macOS (average score 250 with “Hard” + “Small” options) vs Linux (average score ~100).

I've never tried Linux on a MacBook, but those must be some really bad drivers. I used my trackpoint on the same size/difficulty settings and scored 160. I'd probably do better with practice.
Read here to learn about credit card partners, and how it works:

https://www.doctorofcredit.com/everything-you-ever-wanted-to...

Essentially, in this case, the underlying bank (Goldman Sachs) handles all the finances and the partner (Apple) lends their name/brand and receives a small kickback on card activities.
They need an official, svelte Apple controller that works wirelessly with iPhone and iPad. They need to adopt USB-C and to allow easy mirroring from the iPhone onto a TV.

Modern iPhones and iPads have plenty of power - about equivalent to an Xbox One base model (though much less RAM) - people should be able to connect them to their TVs and game using a wireless controller.
If the publisher isn’t interacting with the prediction market, then it doesn’t, as jerkstate said, “have skin in the game” beyond the traditional revenue and reputational metrics (eg Pulitzer Prizes).

Even if they were interacting with the market (even for just braggadocio reasons), then they’d just be matching the biases of those that self-select for participation in what is essentially a small value and meaningless game. I could easily see the equivalents of pump-and-dumps and other market manipulation just for political / tribal reasons.
The rewards may be real, but so are the cost increases the merchants gradually put in place to offset them.
if you're using their products, why would they not know anything about you? using their phone, app store, itunes, news app, maps appointments.. maybe im missing something? I'm not saying they have your purchase history, but they have a lot
Honda unveils electric version of CRF450 dirt bike and new electric scooter
I mean, the FCC does not really have a track record of enforcing violations. You could probably do whatever you want, until some hams fox hunt you and tell Uncle Sugar you are breaking the rules. Even then, the FCC is likely to only give you a warning rather than a punishment.

That being said these bands are out there for the public to use, the government has set aside a pretty decent portion of the available usable frequencies for use of the public. In my opinion is just in poor taste to not follow the rules here.

In these days when you can get a Baofeng HT for $25, there are already all sorts of unlicensed people stomping all over others just to be jerks.
My current solution is to use a 2013 BMP streaming trackpad events to linux via Synergy. I have to use a specific old (1.8.8) version that has been patched for smooth scrolling though. Having a laptop setting in my lap while I use my desktop is not ideal though.
Samsung Suddenly Launches Galaxy S10 Ultimate Edition
In the Netherlands, credit cards aren't widely accepted because the local debit card system has no transaction fee. Without 3% card fees, the consumer prices are lower, so the whole country saves extra money.
Thank you, I missed the sarcasm. I thought the comment was quoting and agreeing with the law.
You found that you had to download too much bloat to use Okular so you made an Electron app? Im pretty sure you dont have to download all of KDE to use one of its apps, just the package manager and the libraries Okular uses.
I came across this while trying to find a term to describe a phenomenon I've witnessed for years but had only recently set about studying and discussing with others. In particular, I'm more interested in the accidental forgetting of knowledge.

Management, for instance, believes engineering know-how is stored in the organization (or acquired in school), but when a round of layoffs or retirements occur and the people are later replaced, a great deal of knowledge is gone. But the absence isn't discovered until a new project or a sustainment effort is initiated and the new team fails (but their failure may not be discovered until much later).
I typed my response hastily - I'm not against them existing, what I meant was I hope they never replace consoles. I have no desire to pay a monthly fee to play hundreds of games.

The game list could be virtually unlimited, but there's always a real, tough limit - my free time. I can still only play 1-2 games per month and I'd rather own a copy of it.

Having access to hundreds, to me, means I'll essentially play a game for 5 minutes, then the next one, then the next one... until I've had an hour of no real experiences. In this backlog culture, it'll be a miracle if anyone ever finishes a game again.
They give you a physical card that clearly has an EMV chip. Don’t know if it includes MSR.

But you should be able to use this almost anywhere, it doesn’t depend on contactless ApplePay.
The system is in place. Things change slowly in a democracy that has its flaws as well as benefits.

Faults of a slow democracy are easy to see but benefits are not so much. You see move fast break things is not how you deal with people's life. The system is in place and it has immense constitution powers granted. Once the literacy increases so would the quality of candidates. If you look at ADR databases and compare it with regional GDP as well as educational levels you would see a clear trend towards a net positive.

The slop isn't as high as we would like it but it's positive and that's how democracies work.
Ask HN: Is there a way to browse YC companies, live ones at least?
The name, and a sentence or two explaining what they do. Live ones preferred, but it would also be interesting to see what's been tried. Preferably all on one webpage, for simplicity.

Alternatively, is there any other simple way to browse them?

So, you make a bunch of good points. But consider- some people (most people) can't ever get a "cash back" credit card because of their bad credit. How does that play into your framework?
I don't really see this as a competitor to CSR, and I don't think Apple does either.
Makes sense to me, thanks for answering.
It's really easy to use. Just right click somewhere on a page.
so a parallel universe somehow interferes with ours? I don't think even most enthusiastic multiverse theorists will be able to grasp that.
A great book on this idea is "Human Behavior and the Principle of Least Effort" by George Kingsley Zipf.

What apple sell is social status. Next they will sell clothes and cars.
Yes, but only "newer" ones. So larger chains you see them, but mom and pops will take a bit longer. Depends on when they got their merchant account/hardware. My point was that it's more common than you think, and it's used outside of tech circles.
>Yes, and ultimately Goldman Sachs is a bank and will be held accountable for anything that happens.

The jokes almost write themselves. . .
Your points do not counter what I am saying.

Infact, I agree with both of your points.

The problem is, supply chains are not as entrenched as you claim.

Given a long enough time horizon and advanced enough automation, robots will move back to USA. Especially consider the IP risks and political concerns WRT China.

It will take a long time for all industries, some will happen before others, but there will be more vertical integration through automation and it will become more cost effective to have factories (not jobs, there will be no jobs from this) for products next to the markets they serve.

This is what most economists believe, and what the Chinese government believes, which is why they are pushing to develop AI and innovation.

Hi, do you mind linking me to some sources to this claim?
I found this to be insightful and helpful. Thank you for sharing.
>Let's just hope this "gaming as a service" stays on mobile devices where it belongs.

I doubt it; stream boxes are probably 1-2 generations away meaning that online connections are going to be more integral to the experience.

The largest publishers makes more than half of their revenue off one game thanks to recurring payments from DLC, multiplayer content, or the brand new concept of battle passes and see no reason to create new IPs when the old ones still move millions of copies.

It won't be long until you need to pay some form of a subscription fee for most big budget / popular games (rebranded as a monthly battle pass or something so people don't get dissuaded / angry).

The good news is that indies are still around and there are still big single player games that are being developed to placate the crowd.

But mobile gaming has definitely been the extreme end of the most predatory business practices in video games and I see no reason that the rest of the industry won't follow suit.

Ask HN: Licensing Question – MIT on Top of GPLv3?
I am not a lawyer and respect those who are.

I oversee an open source project, https://github.com/westonplatter/phashion.

A person recently asked (https://github.com/westonplatter/phashion/issues/68) if the project needs to be licensed per GPLv3 to match the phash source code license, which is "included" in the library. By included, I mean that the ruby gem actually carries a copy of the phash source code in the source code. Said differently, phashion does NOT reference a locally installed version of phash.

My question, in order to legally adhere to the phash GPLv3, should I change the license to GPLv3?

PS - I will view all comments as opinions, and do expect them to embody or be intended as legal advice. Just looking for second person's perspective.
I really appreciate the HDPI support baked into this release. Working well for my on my system 76 machine.

Depending on who's definitions of birth date ranges you use, Obama might be considered a Gen X president.

Also, not entirely sure why there's a generation called "the Greatest Generation". We can say they were all war heroes and suffered etc., but there were also jerks in that generation who started those wars. We are all products of our time. It kind of sucks to just lump everyone based on their birth date and stereotype them.
