If the people want to elect representatives who pass a law declaring companies like Facebook systemically risky and authorizing their breakup, I'm ambivalent. What I have a real problem with is the federal government seizing on an offense that would ordinarily merit a $10MM fine (or $100MM or $5B) and ratcheting it way up as a way of signaling disapproval for actions not part of the underlying offense, which is essentially what I believe everyone advocating for higher fines is doing.

I think there's some blurriness here because people seem to believe that the violation FTC is pursuing had something to do with Facebook's whole business. That is not my understanding. As I understand it, what set FTC off here was the pattern of violations surrounding the Cambridge Analytica scandal, in which Facebook partners were given more access to user profile data than users expected or would have consented to. That's bad! But it is hard to argue, knowing a little bit about Facebook's business, that those violations were a major component of Facebook's revenue. Thus: Facebook's revenue is not the figure of interest in deriving a fine.
To be clear there is only one lens on the rear of this pixel and every other pixel ever made. They have never had a dual-lens rear camera. The Pixel 3 had a front dual-camera but still just a single rear camera.
Or use a "pure orm" (mapping to plain business objects) without a query builder - thus writing native sql and receiving nicely structured objects from the results (eg https://github.com/craigmichaelmartin/pure-orm)
That's why I mentioned it, actually taking the time to see what a change can effect itself takes time, and if changes are pushed through in an hour then no one is stopping to think about what systems you might be breaking.

std::vector and std::string were designed in the '90s, and came with C++98. They have been modernized, somewhat, with move constructors and the like, but in answer to your implied question, no, they are not modern designs, and they still have sharp edges. That is a burden of backward compatibility.

But you knew they came from C++98. Maybe you meant to ask if I still use them? I do. But I don't store references to their elements.

If you’re starting a new project, you should write it in Kotlin
The author does say to ask yourself what things are safe to lose. In other words, practice losing safely, or safely enough. The mental lessons are deeper than simply learning to take risks.
I have not thought about it like this before but I think you truly might be onto something.
What source would you prefer an open source UI library come from, that would avoid this concern?

Open source software lives and dies with adoption. Starting off with a (paid) development team, marketing team, and large initial user base (google internal) puts a piece of software in a good starting position, but doesn’t guarantee success.

Disclaimer: I work at Google, though not in a Flutter-related role.
They sold 400k cars with hardware they believe is sufficient for full self driving (perhaps with limited upgrades).

Tesla is the only one actually attempting to empower individuals with FSD tech. Everyone else has given up and/or wants to monopolize it for private fleets. Everyone claims to be shooting for the same FSD capability. Different strategies is, of course, wrongly conflated with "fraud."

I tend to think Tesla is behind Waymo. It's hard to say beyond that. But for actual mass deployment of serious hardware, no one is ahead of Tesla.
The wired earbuds on my minidisc even had a little inline screen to display the current track.
Hi!

Thanks for taking the time to check it out and the feedback!

For the theming feature, I was thinking of adding a way to export the installed themes, that way the user can download the theme being used and apply any customization and re-upload as a new custom theme.

A blank template for new designs is an excellent idea.

I've also created a small node based command-line program that syncs local development changes to the live knowledge base portals. This helps a lot with testing and previewing the themes. I've not released it just yet, I plan to do so with an MIT license on GitHub. It is similar to Shopify's Themekit (https://shopify.github.io/themekit). This is what I use to work on theme designs.

For knowledgebase language strings, you are right, that's possible at the moment through the theme locale files.

From("Post").
Join("PostTag using(postID)").
Where(sq.Eq{"tagID ": tagID})

qSQL, args, err := query.ToSql()
if err != nil {
return nil, errors.Wrap(err, "Error generating dbAllPostsInTag sql")
}
err = db.Select(&posts, qSQL, args...)
if err != nil {
return nil, errors.Wrap(err, "Error listing dbAllPostsInTag")

When you have complicated ownership cases, you have a fundamental design problem. The Standard Library is not a place to find patches for those.

Serious question: why would I care about a faster processor, unless I plan to use my phone for something exceptionally demanding?

If I don't plan on engaging in these few very specific, highly demanding applications - high-end gaming is really the only one that comes to mind - would I really need much processing power to run the handful of apps like email and instant messaging that most people seem to use their phone for?

Even games would likely run fine as long as they're the casual ones most users play. I suspect high-end processors are really only useful for the top 1% (if that) of folks who want to play high-end games, and as such they seem like a great place to cut costs.
This is an interesting subject but I didn't find the piece to be well written. Perhaps it's just me.

Show HN: Added Supporting Function by Patreon to Pixela
I previously (last October) developed an API service called Pixela https://pixe.la/ and announced it here.（At that time, I didn't know the "SHOW HN" rule, so it didn't get talked about much.）
It is a API service for generating GitHub-like graphs.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18289947

https://medium.com/@a.know.dev/pixela-a-service-for-generati...

I have been improving since then. Today I am announcing the addition of supporting function by Patreon to Pixela.

https://github.com/a-know/Pixela/releases/tag/v1.11.0

If you register for Pixela support by Patreon https://www.patreon.com/pixe_la , you will receive an email with `thanks-code`. Set that code up in your Pixela account and you'll get a few limited features.

I would like you to check the details here https://github.com/a-know/Pixela/wiki/How-to-support-Pixela-... , but at the moment I have the following offers:

- On the following pages, a badge will be displayed on the username.
- [Detail page of each graph](https://docs.pixe.la/entry/get-graph-html)
- [Graph list page](https://docs.pixe.la/entry/get-graph-list-html)
- The `isSecret` property of `Graph` is available, which is a parameter to turn off the display of graph on the [graph list page](https://docs.pixe.la/entry/get-graph-list-html).

By the way, this integration between Patreon and Pixela was made possible by Patreon Webhook. I love developing Web services as a hobby. I am pleased with the compatibility with Patreon.

Please try Pixela https://pixe.la/ !!
It's on the site!

Which ORMs make SQL Injection easy to happen? From my experience input sanitation is one of the main features of every major ORM. I am not aware of any popular ORM that makes it easy for SQL injection to occur.
I don't see how end users suffer from using Rails. Server side rerponse time is a very small component of page load time for most websites. It's different from being forced to download and parse megabytes of JS, which consumes CPU, battery and time.
Furthering your point, the amount of speed improvement to make the processor future proof seem to be more than you might get.

"It's like HN doesn't understand of raising money on an existing valueless proposition!"

No seriously, I don't understand. Explain to me. I grew up in and around small businesses, I legit don't understand how this bulls* flies. It's all being propped up for god knows what reason, and ultimately your average citizen is going to have to pay for it when it all comes crashing down, like always. I don't care if a group of "visionary VCs" "see value" in it. We've replaced a sustainable industry (taxis) with Uber and Lyft, which only were able to because they were able to skirt by regulation, and now if and when they vanish because again, they have proven to be unable to actually make profit to date, we will now have a crumbled public transit mode left to rebuild. Irrational investments that negatively affect the public should be faced with this intense scrutiny.

I am honestly obviously ignorant to whatever is going on here, so I am allowing myself to be educated here.
Stunning.

Lyft is valued at $17bn on $776M revenue. Expenses for this revenue...

Cost of revenue: $462M
Operations: $187M
S&M: $275M
Administrative: $376M

Total expenses: $1.3bn, i.e. 167% of revenue.

This is not a healthy company.

Uber's breakdown for quarter-ended March 31 isn't out yet. But looking at Dec 31 figures:

Revenue: $3.0bn
Cost of revenue: $1.6bn
Operations: $408M
S&M: $974M
Administrative: $555M

Total expenses: $3.53bn, i.e. 118% of revenue.

(note: the above excludes R&D and interest, depreciation, amortization expenses)
I got started with ORMs before I knew any SQL, and I wish I had learned to just write SQL earlier in my coding career. I've spent way too many hours wrestling with ORMs that couldn't quite do some query I wanted to write. I think it would have been better to write some SQL and have people push back w/ a better way to write a query than to try & purge everything that looked like SQL from ORM queries. Having learned SQL has made life so much easier for me!
Oh wow! A Google phone with Google Assistant and Google Maps? Who would've thought!

I'm not sure I understand since there are common cases where you have no choice but to deal with user input. Sure you can manually escape user input in your manual sql calls, but if you're doing that manually there's no hard guarantee that you'll always escape that input vs using an ORM.
> If you count about 140 mph as high speed train, Finland (pop. density 17/km^2) and Sweden (22/km^2) seem to be doing just fine.

Citing the population density of Finland and Sweden as a whole is pretty disingenuous. Those two countries have densely populated urban centers in the south with high speed rail yet vast sparsely populated areas in the north with nothing. High speed rail gets built where it makes sense and no amount of hand waving is going to make building a high speed rail line from LA to Chicago or New York viable. With that said, I will agree that politics and culture are certainly factors.

What’s the size of their war chest? At $1+B/year of net loss this party can’t continue forever.
I don't think you're ignorant, you've described the situation well. It sounds like you are the one doing the educating here.
Facebook giving advertisers more access to user profile data than users expected is AGAIN the entire fucking point of the 2012 settlement. That Facebook was capable of giving a relatively tiny ass ad company that access is AGAIN evidence that they had been in non compliance with that settlement for 7 years.

And when selling access to user profile data is their entire value-add over any other given ad network AND rando-ass companies (which CA definitely was) can pay for data that Facebook told users was private: there is no untangling it from revenue from companies that didn't take advantage of that abuse of privacy, there is just what companies we know for sure and what companies could have.
No and no. It doesn't contain a hardware accelerated ML inference chip. The Qualcomm 670 chipset used with the 3a includes the Qualcomm Hexagon 685 DSP which provides vector processing acceleration for ML workloads, so also not just GPU.
This would actually be detrimental to users. Responsible email publishers use lack of opens as a signal to reduce volume of emails sent and, eventually, unsubscribing you automatically. Gmail causing a lot of bogus engagement would make it look like people can’t get enough of your content
Agile doesn’t excuse you from having to do the work of resourcing, budgeting, business alignment, goal setting, sprint planning, acquisition, and so on. For bite-sized projects with just a few developers, it’s less of an issue, but for a project covering PMO, design, QA, change management, and multiple technical workstreams you have to have — and need to communicate to the business — at least a reasonable idea of what you’re getting into.

You ain’t wrong about how most businesses implement “agile,” though. :)

That they did it AGAIN is the basis for there being a relatively significant fine in the first place. It does not follow that the purpose of that fine should be to cripple Facebook, not because crippling Facebook is bad, but because there is no reasonable basis in law to do so.

Again, the significance of the fine is relative to the offense, not the entity. We also don’t fine Mark Zuckerberg 10MM for being late (AGAIN) for paying parking tickets.
