Then they should know, that children want to play popular games, that change all the time.

I'm pretty sure that Apple will have problems with remaining their cut of the 9,99€ / month. If some f2P games aren't included, because the deal is not interesting enough for the publisher/game developer. EA, Nintendo, Niantic ( Google), Zynga, Epic and Microsoft won't partner up also.

Kids don't want to play curated games, they want to play what is popular or what they really want.

It's not like going to kid-friendly restaurants where you pick the destination. It's Minecraft, PUBG or even Farming Simulator ( my brother is buying an Xbox with only that game for his son) that they want to play this moment. They are not going to wait till Apple has the permission to publish it in the arcade service.
This is kind of cool but there are other good tools for it, as commenters mentioned. (Seatguru, FlightAware.) I think the missing feature there is simplicity and “so what?” Tell me why my a321neo is so cool, how to tell it apart from other planes when I see it on the tarmac, when it was designed, how many are out there, which airlines operate lots of them. Others will beat you on feature richness, but I just want an app I can use to teach my kids about planes, and geek out on them myself.

Hi Eddie - well done putting this together, it works really smoothly. I'm going to assume this is a fun project just for learning or to show off your skills, rather than something you're hoping to grow up to serious scale or even monetize. The reason I say that is, speaking as a frequent flyer, this is not something I would categorize under the YC mantra of 'build something people need'. True, the choice of aircraft is important to me, but Google Flights tells me that information when I'm searching for tickets, before I've even booked. It's true, as someone else noted below, that sometimes the same airline/flight number on different days will be flown with different equipment. And speaking as someone with a strong preference for Airbus over Boeing that matters when an airline like Cathay Pacific (one of the airlines you're missing, btw) will fly a B777 one day and an A350 on another day between Hong Kong and Melbourne (for example). If it's a holiday, where the exact day doesn't matter, then yes I am one of those people who might pick a different date because I prefer that kind of aircraft.

But even if Google didn't tell me that immediately before booking, I wouldn't be able to get it from FlightAware data (via your site or otherwise) because airlines don't seem to post it there more than a few days in advance. And besides, since I'm a plane geek I tend to look stuff up directly on FlightAware or FlightRadar24 all the time (I live right under the final approach to a very busy airport so I often go there just to see where the planes over my head have come from!), so I'm not sure what value you're adding by giving a tiny subset of the data that is available there for free anyway.

But still, as I said, I think it's great work if this is just for learning or demo purposes, well done. If you wanted to provide a bit of a usability improvement, I would second one of the comments below that suggests you shouldn't need to ask for the name of the airline if people supply the full flight number, i.e. with the letter prefix. That's the format that people will have on their tickets/booking emails etc, and it's actually a tiny cognitive load to mentally convert "OS264" into "Austrian Airlines" dropdown followed by "264" without the prefix; the clever part, for you of course, would be to convert the airline prefixes as used in ticketing and airport displays (OS, LH etc) to those that are used in the routing data (OS->AUA, LH->DLH etc).

Now if you could make an app that tells me exactly where to find free water refills at any airport after going through security, then I'd be happy :-)

I've heard voices for as long as I can remember but immediate link most people jump to with psychosis meant I never told anyone until I was in my 30s. Only when I heard, I think, a RadioLab episode where they mentioned somewhere around one in ten do did I think that maybe I'm not teetering on madness.

It happens whenever I manage to stop thinking, which isn't often. This makes two things incredibly difficult - getting to sleep and meditation. Getting to sleep I've pretty much nailed thanks to melatonin and Radio4 through some speakers under my pillow. Meditation though I've pretty much given up on - the second I manage to reach any kind of meditative state I hear snippets of speech which _always_ kicks my brain into thinking about what the voice just said. I feel like I haven't actually relaxed in 40 odd years.

Oh, interesting. I've heard about mypy so much earlier that, given the similarity, I always assumed pytype was inspired by it.
I like it.

Yes, other sites have been providing this, but I think this stands a chance of ranking well in the future when people search for what their aircraft is, and with good reason: it does that one thing without distraction. Especially on tiny phone screens, minimalism is a huge feature. Bonus points for reacting quickly to a media hype.

The language might not be the biggest problem. The insane amount of regulation we have might be. Besides regulation, there are plenty of other differences between countries within the EU.

For example, we don't have a unified banking system in the EU. Each country has its own preferred method of payment. In the Netherlands they have iDeal. In Belgium Bancontact. Dankort in Denmark. The list goes on [1]. Credit cards are not that common in Europe and not everyone has one. To appeal to a wider audience, one must support local payment methods. This is just one example of where things get more complicated compared to doing business in the US.

Indeed, this scenario is so ubiquitous that it will certainly continue happening as far into the future as there are human beings, for whatever definition of "human being" you can come up with. One of the first things I learned in the military was that many many things -- which are so shocking as to be almost unbelievable -- never see the light of day and become news stories. It happens so often that I would be willing to bet a hundred United States dollars that your local police department has some not-insignificant percentage of employees (think five or ten percent) that regularly use their patrol car computers for personal reasons, or quasi-personal reasons. I've met more than one police officer personally who genuinely saw nothing wrong with it. They think that it's harmless, or worse, that they're justified in doing so because their intentions are good.
I don't think this is very different from Bank of America or Chase running a payment processing system.

Both issue cards, and run two of the largest credit card processing systems. Bank of America Merchant Services and Chase Paymentech.

Most smaller providers still depend on one of those larger banks networks to process transactions.

You generally always need an acquiring bank to issue cards or process transactions. I believe this is the role of Goldman Sachs in this Apple news.

(Source: I worked at Square for 6 years, and my teams were directly responsible for the network integrations to connect to those merchant acquirers so we could process credit cards.)

Well, have the airlines owned up to what needs to be canceled? I'm flying in a week on a 737 something, I would hate for it to get canceled the day before, but if I saw it was scheduled for such an aircraft in the past, I could actively reschedule it myself.
I feed ADSB data I collect with an antenna sticking out the attic window to FlightAware and a handful of others. Not sure why I do that, maybe the attic is an escape from my ol' lady, but I'm glad to learn it's going toward a good cause!

Speaking of grounding the 737 MAX, I should probably ground that antenna...
Actual title is “Apple unveils its subscription streaming service, Apple TV+”.
Also, you shouldn't use the Apple logo character (U+F8FF) in the title, because it's in a Unicode private use area, and it won't appear correctly unless it's displayed on an Apple device, or by use of a special fallback font.
GitHub is likely among the most widely used tools for HN users. Posting on HN, news that is relevant to such a majority of users on this platform, is a rather perfect use of HN as a dissemination platform. I read through GitHub's tiered service documentation after reading this article, and I couldn't find reference to branch controls being permanently deleted; so the OP was giving us very valuable experiential information, that was unattainable from GitHub. I really can't think of a better use for HN.

I once heard an interview to some gamedevs. They were asked

- Your Steam stats show that people have spent <an inordinate amount of hours> playing your game. Doesn't it bother you that they could have employed all that time doing something more useful?

Their answer:

- Well, you know, maybe they were all Hitler. We might be saving the world by destroying their productivity.

It cracked me up and made me buy their game.
We're working on it! We parse the DOI now and we're going to implement unpaywal DOI lookup for extended metadata. It's probably going to be a few more weeks before this is fully integrated though.

> Uh... my kids listen to the same damn song hundreds of times before they cycle to next. YMMV, and there's a large market out there that likes repetitiveness in their music.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4301681 Eh, most people I know and in most discussions I've seen, people would prefer their shuffle not to play the same songs over and over. Otherwise why bother with shuffle? The thing is - people who want to listen to one song or watch one movie or play one game over and over and over are already served quite well. Just buy the damn thing and you have unlimited uses.

Gradually, we've seen the growth of services like Netflix, Amazon Prime, Spotify, etc. because people do want variety, and they don't want to pay for every single song or movie or game (see EA Access, Xbox Game Pass, Sony whatever). Apple's game sub service actually isn't all that novel in general, it's just novel for smartphones where the industry has, over the past 9 years, moved primarily towards f2p, which actually gives people variety if they want it without having to pay for it, while also being able to consume the same game as much as they want as well.

It's also no accident that Steam has been so wildly successful through its sales, because that lets people try all kinds of different games without having to sell their kidney.
> Wasn't able to find an example for Go, but seems likely it's out there.

NERF/LinuxBoot has a lot of Go components though as I remember it the EFI application is actually the Linux kernel, with the userland (i.e. init) being written in Go.
As a frequent flyer, I appreciate the tool because it's surprisingly hard to tell exactly which model is being flown. Google will tell you it's a 737, but not which variant of 737. Many airlines don't break it down either. And

I have ExpertFlyer for that, but that's a paid subscription. Or I could fiddle with FlightAware's crappy UI. But having a neat tool that tells me immediately is cool.

As for why I care? Different planes often have different seats and in business class it can make a world of difference. Fly United's 777-300ER with the Polaris seats, or 777-200 with the "coffin seats" and you'll get a sense for why knowing the `-300ER` suffix makes a huge difference.
I now read articles by skipping paragraphs 1 & 2, skimming 3, 4 & 5 for the scraps of necessary intro, reading 6 & 7 for the actual (hopefully) new information, and maybe skim the rest for the odd nugget that fell through. I can sorta see the value of the fluff when looking at an article in a vacuum, but it is plain annoying when so many articles are written this way.
This is just going to descend into review-bombing chaos (look at what happens to games on Steam, and then think about how much more biased people are about news sources).

A much better idea would be a curated news source registry that does objective fact-checking and scores news sources based on various criteria, with the relevant research/scoring mechanisms shown openly so people can verify the results themselves. Like Snopes meets Charity Navigator (https://www.charitynavigator.org/).

The thesis was that everyone keeps getting automation wrong, and why the coming revolution will be far more different than what has come before.

Hope you enjoy this!
Anecdotal - I'm in Canada and pay mostly with credit cards. I don't even recall swiping my card in the past two years. I've basically been doing contactless under $100 whenever I can and chip and pin for all other transactions.
If you're targeting multiple platforms you're likely using an engine rather than directly programming the GPU anyway. So you don't actually care about vulcan vs metal, you care about e.g. "Unity".

An impulse is just a "want" over a shorter timescale. When someone says "I want to quite X, but can't", what they usually mean is that most of the time they want to quit, but for short periods of time they want X more than they want to quit.

Self-control is an important part of short-term vs long-term thinking. Perhaps a more important point is whether (during the times when you want to quit X) you change things so that the times when you want X are less frequent.

If you say you want to quit X, but you choose not to do the things that make it easier for you to quit X (for example, for someone wanting to quit eating between meals, not buying and keeping snacks in their house, so that giving in to their impulses is more effort) then it's reasonable to doubt your intention to quit X.

People do lie, especially about their reasons for doing things, and taking them at their word would be negligent if you're a doctor who needs the truth to do your job, or even if they're just someone you want to help.
I understand that many people need medications to help tune the brain back to more of a normal range, and it's great that meds are available to help them.

A general question I've been wondering about -- ever since it seemed half of some CS departments' undergrads were on meds, at the start of the dotcom bubble -- is what are the costs to discretionary use of meds as performance enhancers, by people who don't have abnormal brain situations to start with?

I'd like to know in general, and it might be important to public health or societal direction. But this doesn't seem the kind of thing that a non-researcher/doctor can ask individuals about, since it can be extremely personal.
Cannabis's Schedule I status makes it difficult for legitimate researchers to debunk (or confirm) the ever growing volume of nonsense cannabis proponents put forward to support legalization. Which ironically, is a pretty good argument for rescheduling it at least.

I'm aware of that, and mentioned that point in my original comment. What I'm not following is why Borg can't safely use AES-GCM or ChaPoly instead of AES-CTR + HMAC.

Again: the team is actively considering using AES-GCM and ChaPoly in the future. I don't see anything intrinsic to either that preempts their use in Borg.
Certified commercial pilot speaking here and I assume this comes out of the 737-MAX issue.

Obviously, you're ridiculously safe on any given airplane. Even as someone in the industry I can't believe the safety numbers myself at times.
None of that would have been an issue if we had put the money away it costs to take care of those people when they get old, aka SS done right.

But we won't be back to the same demographic issue, because the issue that they people who retire now in the west are the last generations that were bigger than their parents generations (it has a formal name, but you can roughly think of it as many kids born, many kids die transitioning into many kids born, few kids die into what we have now which is few kids born, few kids die).
It is not actually NFC, but if you use Target's App you can put your "Red Card" (target's in-house credit card) into your App and have a single scan for both their coupons system (Cartwheel) and payment at once.
It's a custom bidding script that tells their real-time auction platform how much you want to pay for route improvements for a particular user session.

Typically, shaders are used to move vertices in 3d meshes or color pixels in the GPU. Network Next is just using the term in a creative way to help connect to their audience, but it's nothing different than a bidding model.

In the future, the 737 MAX will only permitted to resume passenger flights once the safety issue on the plane has been fixed.

The 737 MAX is still likely to become one of the most common planes in the world for many years to come, as it's predecessors in the 737 line have been. If you are planning to permanently refuse to fly on the 737 MAX because of this incident, you may wish to be aware of the safety records of... well, every other plane:

Older 737s, well, the predecessors of the 737 MAX have had their share of losses: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_accidents_and_incident... (Scroll up from there to see how many losses took place on even older models as well.)

And if you're thinking Airbus is going to be your savior here, there's a pretty solid list here too: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_accidents_and_incident... (Yes, it's much shorter, but the A320 series is a twenty year newer line.)

Antabuse (disulfram) inhibits the acetaldehyde oxidase enzyme which is involved in the metabolism of ethanol to acetic acid.

The Internet is optimized for throughput at lowest cost.

No amount of good netcode that you write can compensate for this.

The problem is the internet itself.

The internet doesn’t care about your game.

The Internet did change, such that streaming movies became viable. Given that games are now bigger than movies, could it be argued that that the network lag we're seeing is the industry lagging behind the culture? (Which it generally does, at least a little.)

A part of this might well involve special deals between large companies involving specialized infrastructure. There are such things now involved with movie streaming. Google's plans involve the infrastructure part of that already. What happens to net neutrality?

Once game streaming becomes mature, then it's only a matter of time for App streaming to follow. We'll be back in the mainframe days, just with much larger companies with much larger multi-box cloud "mainframes", commanding the attention of a much larger portion of the population and the culture.

I know I have. I added the noprocrast setting to HN to interrupt this habit and I often try logging out of Twitter so I would actually need to login to use it. But this article rings true that often I'm using that "break" as a coping mechanism to avoid doing something I assume will be hard.
