The SSD thing is a red herring.

You do not need to scrub or write anything to not provide user A’s data to user B in a multi-tenant environment. Sparse allocation can easily return nulls to a reader even while the underlying block storage still contains the old data.

They were just incompetent.

On top of all of that, when I pointed out that what they were doing was absolute amateur hour clownshoes, they oscillated between telling me it was a design decision working as intended (and that it was fine for me to publicize it), and that I was an irresponsible discloser by sharing a vulnerability.

Then they made a blog post lying about how they hadn’t leaked data when they had.

Nope.
Feel free to give us a historical example where the "low tax case" distributed power to "more" people.
Splitting hairs on physics just means you're missing the point of Arthur C. Clarke's quote - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarke%27s_three_laws#Origins
I think there is some truth to that. However, most of the Autobahn does have a speed limit and other places in Europe definitely have a speed limit and still drivers are great about only overtaking on the left and moving to the right (well when I drove in Ireland they moved to the left.. ;))
> Well I'm a brit so I dunno, but from wikipedia "The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is an independent agency of the United States federal government for environmental protection"

It gets complicated - it is considered independent because it doesn't directly roll up into a cabinet position under the president, but informally it is run like it is a cabinet position, the head is a political appointee of the president, and they can be removed by the president at will. So while more a grey area than something like the State Department, it is closer to that than more independent agencies Federal Reserve that acts without input from the Executive branch, and the appointees can't be fired by the president
If we're being honest here, "Free Speech" has never really been a true philosophical maxim in this country. It's been a useful tool to acquire political and then, once acquired, it's jettisoned as a principle.

Do you develop Android apps?

Google also announced a declarative UI framework. It's in the early stages and is open source. Android is on 9.x but that framework will run on much older versions of Android.

Meanwhile iOS 12 might be on 85% of iOS devices but it wont ever see SwiftUI.
> C'mon, not offering any choice in how you pay for the service is inherently anti-consumer behavior.

This might be the best take I've heard yet. What constitutes choice in method of payment. Since it appears you consider "forcing users to pay with data" to be anti-consumer, is "forcing users to pay with dollars" equally anti-consumer? Does that make, like, restaurants that don't let you pay with personal info anti-consumer? What about companies that take data and don't offer anything in return (Equifax et. al, ISPs, etc.)
Well, then the culture is not so amazing. Your execution struggles are due to poor strategy. Go read this book:[0].

The MS settlement with the DoJ was reached in 2001, about three months after the release of IE6. If anything I think history shows the opposite occurred. Internet Explorer continued rapidly evolving during the antitrust case and its development "grounded to a halt" after the government let Microsoft off the hook.

Which makes enough sense. MS always viewed the web as an enemy and wanted people on windows apps as their primary gateways. They needed a browser until they won, then they tried to kill it. Ultimately it was Apple who succeeded at that vision, obviously.
The "You must release changes"-clause and anti-tivoization clause might be not be enough individually to switch to MIT zsh but probably were together good enough reasons for Apple to switch.
>It's an extremely, almost exclusively, empirical field.

Fully agree, and it's a necessary disease in young fields like ML (akin to grid search in fact).

But at some point, there will need to be some sort of theoretical foundation brought to bear or advancement will grind down to a halt

And the academic reward mechanism needs to start reflecting that fact.
I'm just astonished by the sheer amount of changes.

> In case of soviet space program, this worked too, soviets had a lot of success, only the american program was more successful in the later years.

A lot of that had to do with America deliberately holding back, to the point of putting ballast in Team von Braun's rockets, so that the Soviets would be the first to orbit the Earth and thus not be able to argue endlessly about the US violating their airspace with its satellites. And there was internal military rivalry in America's early response to Sputnik, the Navy had been designated as the service to first get into orbit, but they failed quite dramatically, then Team von Braun was given "rush, rush" orders to get something, anything into orbit ASAP.

A whole lot of post-WWII history pertains to bitter fighting between the War Department/Army, the Navy, and the independent Air Force spawned from the Army.

Meanwhile, based on reading some Wikipedia articles, the Soviet space program was riven by grudges going back to the Great Purge. Turns out denouncing your fellow engineers and helping to put them in the GULAG where they suffer greatly does not encourage smooth relations after WWII.
You are correct, sir! I remember now HN has had this discussion before. However, I think most people would refer to both a Monopsony and Monopoly as the latter.

Living in the US and having grown up in Germany I couldn't agree more. Freeways could go so much faster if the slow people stayed on my right. During my commute I constantly am stuck between three card next to each other, happy to go 45-50 mp/h. At the same time I see cars changing lanes all the time to work their way around the slow cars. It's super dangerous. Visit LA and this gets dialed to 11.

It’s the users who are being given power here over their own data. Yeah it’s tough but it’s been a long time coming.
Why? How does this affect them on macOS at all?

If Bash were also being used on iOS that would be different, but I'm quite confident that will never happen.
The problem is that a lot of creators already have RSS feeds, but almost no one uses them.

Also, RSS doesn't address the problem of having a sustainable business model. As much as people may criticize youtube, it's really the only service that has come up with a long-term business model for video creators. It's a massively flawed model, but it's still a model.

Spot on! The level of explanation and the intent behind the explanation hugely matter. An explanation that is correct but becomes inaccessible can become a demotivator for kids (not for all kids). An explanation that makes things too mundane can cause a consequent lack of curiosity.

A recent such explanation episode got me thinking more about this - I'd recently got a pair of noise cancelling headphones and wanted to demo it to my kids. In an inspired (or dumb) moment, I introduced it to them like this - "you know headphones play music right, this one plays silence." I'd like to think I caught a whif of both understanding and "what the .." in their expressions :D
That's not much better. Another phone goes to landfill because not even apple was able to repair it due to their horrendous practicices. It took me half an hour to remove a battery from an iPhone and I had to get the hair dryer out to melt the glue. With other devices I just unscrew a bracket holding the battery down and it takes me 5 minutes.
I am a professional and ironically enough work with big data. 256GB is fine for me.

If you're still relying on local storage in 2019 for development, analytics, video/image work, etc. you are simply doing it wrong
This has so many myopic statements it’s hard to pick one, so I’m going to randomly choose... ocean bathing...

Recall that Brazil is where the United Nations had to tell swimmers to cover any scratches or open wounds in their body before getting in the water for the olympics, and to shower immediately after. And that was in the nicer area. The water quality in the favelas is even worse.
Not really. People make moral arguments to justify economic gains. Whether they really believe in the argument makes no difference if the same argument is being made.
> YouTube giving up on the old definition of "subscribe" and re-ordering peoples feeds to improve engagement

I had the same thought while reading through this site!
I've started working through Crafting Interpreters a few weeks ago. I have been loving it. I'll generally read a chapter one evening, and then write the code from it the next day and re-read bits of the chapter to clarify the code. It's been really enjoyable.

One thing I want to do next is to try and implement the tree-walking interpreter again in another language (probably F# in my case) and maybe share it if I finished it up. This site is basically a concrete version of that small thought in my head.

Funny how things work out!
Operation Bodysnatch
You are right. It is sufficient for a large number of users. However, the Mac Pro is a high end workstation used by professionals, targeted for applications like high resolution video editing that require insane amounts of storage.

Relatively speaking, storage is cheap. A high performance, 1 TB NVME drive can be had for under $350. This should be the base configuration on a high end workstation...
I thought the bell was just for push notifications vs no push notifications?
FIY: elsewhere on Earth, admitting to being wrong is considered to be a commendable thing.

Welcome to the planet, enjoy your stay!
You are kinda getting at the problem, but I don't think you fully hit it with your comment. The reality is that for small services, hand curation works perfectly fine. This right now is a platform with a couple dozen hand picked creators, and if you like a some of them, chances are you will like the others too.

The issue with that is that these platforms don't really scale, and will always be gated by some magical hand. Getting on there is probably more about having the right connections. As long as Nebula stays small, it'll probably be fine, but this greatly limits to breadth of the site.

One great example would be early Steam, and what Epic is sorta trying to re-create now. As the site got bigger and allowed more and more games, finding something you like became impossible. You had to dig through piles of crappy low tier games to find anything good. That's where algorithmic recommendation becomes a must.
I stand corrected. thanks.
I agree there is total intent. For example, imagine a environmental Republican who hates all taxes but wants to promote clean energy through solar/wind/nuclear. I'm just suggesting it isn't totalitarian, it isn't anti-science, and it is the prerogative of the President to have a wide latitude to promote different EPA policies.
> Driving on the Autobahn also made me realize that buying a car for its speed is extremely pointless in the Bay Area

There is plenty of fun to be had of route 1, in 1st or 2nd gear, with a few horsepower underneath of you. Don't drive beyond your limit and route 1 is incredible.
Disney+ is going to completely rule that market.
Exchange compatibility? Asking for a friend;)
Can you explain your position here a bit? It seems rather aggressive and somewhat demeaning, although I'm not sure if you intended to come off this way. Do you mean people who haven't been to Brazil literally have no right to discuss this, or do you mean to say they aren't in a position to truly understand the situation?
I agree with your first point, but strongly disagree with your remaining ones.

For me at least, the process of putting together a hackintosh isn't very hard at all.

First I research hardware that is compatible that I can source at a good price. This is the key step since non-compatible hardware is a world of misery. I'd say in the order of 50% of motherboards and 75% of graphic cards have this attribute. This is the hardest step and the community could make life easier for everyone if it maintained a database of such parts but sadly it's mostly geared toward people getting the hardware they already have to work.

Second I get a flash drive of some variety, format it and run the Clover installer on it, then I drag the EFI folder from the standard archive from olarila.com onto the EFI partition of this boot drive. The Hackintosh is now bootable as a vanilla Mac. The boot drive remains attached at all times to enable this.

Finally I install macOS as it was a real Mac, from an installer flash drive, booting through the Clover boot loader on the boot drive of course.

The reason I use macOS (and always have, previously on Apple hardware) is because it delivers a superior user experience. The OS software is far and away more usable than Windows and Linux machines. There is no sign either of them are catching up.
That was one of my biggest complaints too, but Youtube Kids added whitelisting ~9 months ago.
I can tell from the video that the interface is quite easy to navigate if you're a vim user. Very impressive work!
The iPod touch launched 2 months after the original iPhone launched, and they both ran iPhone OS. Why are you so stubborn over something that can be easily searched and debunked?

I went to Brazil about 15 years ago. My girlfriend signed us up for a favela tour in Rio. We had a private guide. It was going pretty well until the police started a raid. The fireworks went off to let people know the police were coming. I saw one cop who looked terrified and I saw another shooting indiscriminately up a hill with his rifle. At first, I wasn’t worried but everyone around us went behind a truck, so we joined them. After that, the guide was ready to continue but my girlfriend said we were done.

Our Brazilian friend back in the states said we should have never gone in the first place. The favelas are run by the gangs. She grew up in one of them so I assume she knows what she’s talking about.

Fortunately for me, it was my girlfriend’s idea.
> flashing your lights is in-fact illegal

I'd just bought a new-to-me car in Germany in 2000. I'm stopped a light, futzing with the controls trying to activate the washer, and accidentally flashed the high beams. The driver in front of me was so concerned about this that they got out of their car and approached mine to ask what was wrong.

I don't know about legality, but, in some situations it will certainly alarm a German driver.

> gas stations

They're basically the only thing open 24-hours and on holidays so they'll sell whatever there's demand for in their location. I did work in a data center with a gas station down the street that doubled as a pretty decent computer shop.
How's the UTF-8 e-mail address support? As most clients suck so bad at that it would be awesome to have an alternative.

How's the GPG and S/MIME support? We'd really need an e-mail client that has first class support of both. Current solutions I've tried are cumbersome at best.

Having those two it'd actually be the best e-mail client for me.

If you look at the creators on there, the majority of them create fairly similar content. Most of them are either educational or video essay channels. They are mostly banking on the fact that if you like some of these creators, chances are you will like most of them. It seems like they are targeting a specific niche of people and it's definitely not meant to be for everyone. It's their own little walled garden, a shared patreon if you will.
Not necessarily. Kids like short home made videos as much as Disney quality films.

It's only been implemented ~3 times besides the paper reference and I do too much ranting on HN to risk connecting it to my professional image. Particularly critisicm of big tech companies I may want to work for someday. Sorry.

It's very niche, I doubt many will run into it. Writing your own hash table is generally considered a bad idea :). I was just very bored and annoyed with memory limits. It will only affect implementors, which is less than 5 people in 4 years. Good example of implementor beware though, I'm sure it's a common issue

Files is an iOS feature. It was added in iOS 11. This new update just has new cosmetic features like the column view. I'm sure the external drive and server connections work on iOS as well.

This is because iPadOS is just a marketing name for iOS 13. iPadOS still runs the same Springboard as iOS and is referred as iOS internally.
