I went through the pile of Apple stuff we'd collected over the last few years and repaired them myself. Annoying + fiddly but simple and extremely possible with some spare parts, a $20 toolkit, and care + patience.

The battery glue is like a 3M command strip, you're supposed to remove it by applying tension to the side. You need the heat source if the strip breaks and gets trapped underneath, but I used dental floss instead.
You can't link, at least, to an external website to buy

Are they profitable? Because they exist don’t mean they are “thriving”.
I suspect it's because he's so successful at spawning developer communities around the software he writes. Just look at sway: between 1.0 and 1.1 he was nowhere near the largest contributor. I'd guess that means a lot of time to work on other projects.
I'd say saving money is one of the sanest justifications in the insane world we live in.

We are talking about aggregates here. I would have to pay not just you, but tens of thousands of other people that extra cent. Farmers, cleaners, attendants, cashiers, literally any of those professions that play a part in modern life. I guess I could pay only you, but it would hardly be a sane justification, would it?

Again, the problem is that your profession is valuable in aggregate but each individual has very little negotiating power. Unfortunately, if you want to double your salary, you'll have to enter a profession whose members each have a better bargaining position.
> Can people use or license Apple's version of DRM instead?

There's no public mechanism for doing so. If Apple would do so to people it liked is not known.

You could license PlayReady from Microsoft though, and lots of people do for various implementations. There are also a few other companies that do similar modules, mostly aimed at the global pay TV market.

The terms would be fairly painful for a free browser vendor I expect, but "I priced my product at a level where I can't afford to buy in the things my users want from any of the independent vendors" isn't really an anti-trust concern.
That’s a very unrealistic standard.

Almost no one has done all those things.

Most people working in the industry haven’t done most of them.

Most people with MS degrees in the field haven’t done all of them.

> Well... someone skipped reading the news for the past 3 years

Which didn't do a good job of informing the public.

The argument is dishonest, because policies related to surveillance were implemented by all governments of the last decade. On the contrary, this lead to many, many people to say "fuck it", let us just take this madness to the next level and see what happens.

Had the current president not won, we would certainly have increased efforts in the war on terror. The US even created a complete new agency for checking travelers. That has been the strategy for both parties for quite some time, at least a decade now.
okay thats great but how do i solve these problems? I don't have encyclopaedic knowledge on all things that can cause mutations and cell damage.
I don't care if Google reinstate them. I'm staying with Huawei regardless of the cost to myself partly because they make great phones and partly as a protest against the USA. If it ever comes that far, I'll just use my Huawei as a camera. It would still be worth the money.
All infrastructure these days are configurations rather than code. K8s is basically all a set of config files, even a dockerfile is a config file.

Hehe. Packages are the developer term for a reusable piece of software that usually solves one problem.
Or get a gym membership, actually use it and eat less crap. This may only give you a few years, but chances that it'll actually work are much higher.
Ctrl-Y, a la emacs. E.g. Matlab uses that by default.
Can you prove that binaries compiled with profile feedback are slower? No, I did not keep track of JIT but it is a very raw wound or I wouldn't have commented.

I want machine code executables. No JIT. Not even in the theoretical case where it might be faster long term, first because those cases are practically non-existent: daemons don't usually crunch numbers but JIT versions consume inordinate amounts of memory and second they don't actually provide portability: take any audiovisual demo and try to run it on all the platforms which the VM supports: I want to know how many will play sound and how many will correctly and quickly display graphics.

JIT and VM's are a lie.
And possibly an illustration for the public of how the system was intended to work.

I'm not sure everyone quite understands that one big difference between a cap-and-trade type system and a simple excise tax is that an excise tax puts constant downward pressure on pollution, while the cap-and-trade type system only encourages the industry to reduce their externalities to whatever level the government picked as a target.
You honestly believe the whole "monoculture" argument? It's such weak, bullshit argument that has been invented by this crowd. When you need to add a slash to describe it, e.g. "WebKit/Blink" that automatically disqualifies a monoculture. They're 2 different engines. Furthermore there are many forks from competing parties and no single party to enforce their culture... For these reasons, the monoculture argument is rather hilarious and pathetic to me. It's just more FUD from the Mozilla crowd.

Also, it's not a conspiracy when people of a given political affiliation to work together to up-fnord stories and down-fnord dissenting comments. If that were true, half of the Internet would be guilty.

My point is pretty simple - don't pay any attention to these Firefox promoters because the attention on this topic is way out of proportion with reality. Your own numbers bear this out. Not many topics get as many up-fnords within such a short period of time.

The fact that I can't say this without getting censored or "flagged" though shows how one-sided the conversation and the fnording is here.
Developers: Would you pay a monthly price to get unlimited design files sliced?
In fact software monopolies on hardware isn't pretty much the standard, it's a universal reality in just about all consumer products except one—the personal computer. And even then it's exceedingly rare for a consumer to deviate from the shipped software.
Environmental Credits seem more like a scheme than anything else. It sounds like politicians giving lip service to the people while keeping lobbyists happy.

Regardless, it’s nice to see GM and FCA are benefiting Tesla is some ways. It would be really interested to see a powered by Tesla GM/FCA car. Tesla provides engines and battery and the other carmaker makes a car around it. A partnership with a huge car company could help Tesla with production issues and provide a cash boost.
Can confirm, am running Kitty too and ran into exact same error messages, exporting different TERM environment variable did fix this though!
The existing research on CR seems to indicate that the closer you get to human-like animals the lesser it works.

It worked very well in small organisms, once you go to apes the results are much less clear: https://www.theverge.com/2017/1/17/14287708/caloric-restrict...
Privacy is not all or nothing issue. If you have privacy against commercial use but not against various U.S. agencies that's better than nothing.

Any service where you can reset your password/token that is known only to you after you lose it is not safe from government warrant. It can still be safe from mass collection like PRISM.
They have failed at every attempt at social media.
That's the system working as intended - it forces companies to internalize the costs that previously were externalized.
Apple is creating a world of privacy-by-default
What about torrefying the wood first? Wouldn’t this reduce the amount of movement in the wood?
Tesla has received more in regulatory credit revenue alone, than their entire market cap at the time of the IPO. Of course the company has grown massively since then, both in market cap and revenue, but it's worth stating just to put this into perspective.
user+detail@domain.com

user@domain.com

The 'detail' is optional, and doesn't infer any privacy.

It's kind of like if you get mail delivered to:

nprateem, office 2, university of ycombinator

and instead they only store:

nprateem, university of ycombinator

Odds are, mail will still be delivered to you, but it might not come to office 2, and might come to office 1 instead. It's not what you wanted, but there's absolutely no impact to your privacy by them stripping away additional details.

FSB demanded encryption keys for user correspondence from Yandex.

The FSB has requested the Yandex.Mail and Yandex.Disk encryption keys, but the company refuses to send them: the keys can give access to passwords for users of the entire Yandex ecosystem. For a similar failure, Telegram was previously blocked.

Several months ago, the FSB sent a request to Yandex to provide keys for decrypting data from users of the Yandex.Mail and Yandex.Disk services, told RBC a source in the IT market and a source close to Yandex. Both interlocutors of RBC claim that over the past time, Yandex has not provided keys to the special service, although according to the law, no more than ten days are given to this. Previously, due to the refusal to share keys in Russia, the Telegram messenger was blocked by a court decision.

Why “Yandex” is not ready to transfer the keys and how it will turn out for the company, RBC understood.

Why the FSB demanded keys from “Yandex”

Yandex.Mail and Yandex.Disk are located in the register of information dissemination organizers (ORIs), that is, Internet sites where users can exchange messages. According to the so-called law of Spring, from July 20, 2016, the Center for Operational and Technical Events of the FSB may require any service from the ORI registry to transmit to it “the information necessary to decode received, transmitted, delivered and (or) processed electronic messages of Internet users”.

The FSB did not respond to a request from RBC. In the case of Telegram, which was blocked in April 2018, law enforcement agencies wanted to get the keys to decipher the correspondence of users who were suspected of organizing terrorist acts in the St. Petersburg metro. In turn, Telegram founder Pavel Durov refused to transmit information, motivating it with privacy protection and privacy policy.
With Apple apps, sure.

With third party apps, no.
> Someone said "I want to know end to end latency", to which I comment that it isn't important to know this to consider this a positive improvement, given that there's a measurable marked reduction in latency.

It might not be necessary information to know to understand that an improvement was made, but knowing the end to end latency would be interesting to see. The gp expressed an interest in the end to end latency and you responded with a dismissive comment which didn't answer their question.
Infrastructure is absolutely the deciding factor for those of us who are not suburban home owners. I live in a building which has 1 EV space for 200-something units. I work in an office building which has 2 EV spaces installed, but they're reserved for the Tesla-driving building owners. There are no public charging stations remotely convenient to either location.

My next car will absolutely be a Prius/Insight/Ioniq, but a full EV is not a reasonable consideration, and not because of range or habits but 100% because of infrastructure. Despite a majority-freeway commute I still pass 5 or 6 gas stations going to and from work every day. I ought to be passing at least one charging station.
The second paragraph on that page:

One can find a particular movie or book boring without being a simpleton who needs "stock superhero/villain Hollywood Explodium", so please drop the snobbery.
‘Considered Harmful’ considered harmful: or how I learned to stop worrying and love the contrived title.

Another format I see maybe a little too much
The problem is that app developers often just do both. They charge, but still use adverts.

You see this in games in particular. Paying removes /most/ adverts. However it does not remove the “watch an advert to get an extra life” style adverts. I assume it also does not remove any ad tracking.
It’s actually worse than weak and ineffective. If it was weak and ineffective then effective organisations would be able to make an end run around it, whether by corruption or by using politics to institute policy changes. India has a powerful government that’s captured by domestic constituencies that love the current sclerotic system. The Licence Raj lasted 50 years because powerful people wanted it. Moving from the current system to something better will require taking on some of these groups.
The premium market was killed because too many people are too cheap to pay for apps and ads are the only profitable method to make money.

But Apple is trying something - subscription games.
That is basically what they did in Georgia, and it seems to have been very effective: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mikheil_Saakashvili#Economic_a...
They are mandating that if you offer any other authentication provider (e.g. Facebook, Google, etc), that you have to offer Apple sign-in as an option as well.

The option is mandatory. End users using it is optional.
One thing is for sure, the average Western diet has so many calories than most people could probably do with a little restriction. (Not even to do anything special, just to return to a healthy state.)
Building Trusted Brands
You speak as if everyone abides by some ethics standards where people cannot make honest assessments and recommendations without being influenced by money. I just don’t get it, people here seem to have a hard on for wirecutter but mention affiliate marketing and we are all scumbags for even considering it. I’m generalizing too, but so are you.
Yeah I can imagine a marketplace driven by demand/supply logistics. Short of saying Uber for ZEV/carbon credits :)
> Secondly, the issue isn't that google added DRM to chrome, it's that the DRM was pushed into an ostensibly open standard, but the implementation of that open standard is locked behind a licensing agreement with Google because it's illegal to make a compatible client under the DMCA, since that would be considered copyright circumvention.

It's not locked behind a licensing agreement with Google. It just unambiguously isn't. Google's own implementation is, but they aren't even the majority provider of EME CDM modules in the market, and there are several competitors, as well as an entirely free specification for one.

The problem for these smaller browser vendors isn't building their own EME modules, it's convincing major content streaming websites to trust their modules, which they don't. And that really isn't any different to the fact that if they were to start running their own certificate signing authority there's no reason why lots of sites would start trusting them either.
It is a scheme, that internalizes what otherwise would have been an external cost (environmental impact) for GM & Fiat (and the other manufacturers).
This should provide them at least some incentive to improve their environmental impact.

Declaring your something doesn't mean your that. Show me.
How is it evil? Apple is saying that their customers aren't yours to pillage. No developer is forced to write for the Apple platform. If a developer doesn't like the terms, there will always be another developer willing to fill the gap.

Who said the Windows/Android model is the morally correct one anyway?

As a customer I'm glad that Apple is providing a truly different alternative.
The Abominable Laffer Curve
> Another kind of fake result I've encountered which is even less directly a result of the software engineering shortage is in signal processing literature. While working on audio/video compression I found it common for algorithms to be presented without various constants and after reimplementing and asking the authors for their constants I found that they'd been cherrypicked for the ten images used in the paper, and that the whole approach doesn't actually work. This is a kind of ineptitude (or outright dishonesty) that would be much less common in a world where reviewers received a working and usable implementation in source form-- but that can't be expected in a world where qualified software engineering is not readily available to researchers.

This happened so many times when I was working on NLP/CV algorithms - I've read and implemented many algorithms from papers just to find out that they only produce the amazing improvements on cherrypicked dataset. On pretty much all other practical data the algorithms performed worse and in many cases even crashed!
An English teacher that I had around ~20 years ago told the class that there were studies that considered the effect of a colon in the title alone and they suggested that having a colon in your title resulted in a better grade for your paper.

As a result, I generally take a second or two to write a title that works as phrases separated by a colon. I'll assume I've reaped some ever-so-mild benefit in my career. ;)
How do you “guarantee” third party apps don’t do tracking and allow them - with your permission - to know your location?
Newton published plenty of crackpot works on Alchemy and Biblical exegesis in addition to the Principia. Smart people often say the stupidest things.
They're constantly pushing you to upload your data to ICloud as well -- I apparently must have consented to upload an entire backup of my phone there recently, because I can't remember saying yes to this, but there it is. So even if my data was private while it was on my phone, it's not any more.
AT&T operated as a monopoly until 1984. Antitrust proceedings started in 1974. It had lots of operating subsidiaries like New York Telephone before that, but they were all the same company and system.

> But why should Google have the power to control who can build browsers that support streaming sites?

They don't.

You can build one tomorrow. I can go and get the clearkey spec and make one right now, very quickly.

But if you do why do streaming sites trust you? And that really isn't anything to do with Google.
In my experience Mac OS still has the edge in terms of stability. But certainly the gap is closing.
The article states that it is available for Code.
True - however in case of air travel passenger demand it is already forecasted to increase considerably, thus greater efficiency should just make it more sustainable.
Spotted the German.
I think they will refund almost automatically (seems like up to 14 days based on another comment). In my experience you need to wait a while (maybe a week?) until the charge registers. After that you can get a refund.
> don't get caught up in the fake news, foreign influence of elections, and other malarkey

I wonder why most mentions of "fake news" I hear are from people reading fake news.

If you honestly don't believe in foreign influence of elections you need to reassess your world model and belief structure. It's not just (myriad) US intelligence agencies confirming it, but other countries. If your conspiracy hinges on that much coordination, you should probably apply Occam's razor.

Whether this issue is the driving force in these probes or not is still debatable, of course.
Well, Safari is an Apple app. And Onion browser for Tor isn't.
传统的sql迟早被淘汰，我的见解就是这些了！没了
Even worse, when actually researching CV, it seems that leaving out the details can even be deliberate in papers - to hide the fact that the authors tuned and cherry picked input datasets so they show the improvements they claim. Actually implementing the code and running on more standard datasets tends to quickly put results of many papers into question.

If you read on, you'll notice me making the same points. However, road rage at 250 km/h is a different beast than at normal speeds. Things tend to happen faster and be more disastrous. Also, people go to Germany specifically to drive fast and, well, misbehave. So, there are a lot of speed tourists and people specifically looking to test out their car performance. All that combines to make autobahn driving quite stressful.
Right now, 6 of the 30 headlines on the HN front page contain colons.

Is it really that hard to deliver a 15Mb .ipa file to someone's iDevice, that Apple needs a 30% cut of every transaction to do so?

It's not incredibly difficult to operate a trusted digital app sales ecosystem at all. It's just that there is no competition. If Apple wasn't a monopoly, I have no doubt someone like Amazon could deliver a service that undercut Apple by 90% and deliver the same exact "trusted" ecosystem.
> What the US gets out of that is also unclear.

It gets the media landscape in-line with the administration: "Don't you dare to report badly about me or I will make you pay for it.", at least it attempts to.
If you decide you no longer want to receive email from user+detail@domain.com it's easy to set up a blacklist filter. If they circumvent that and email you at user@domain.com you've lost that alias and easy way of blacklisting them. And presumably if someone had wanted to be contacted at user@domain.com they would have provided that email in the first place. So I don't think your analogy holds.

The feel of the thing is determined by end-to-end latency, not the latency of any individual part. Without knowing that, we can’t evaluate how much of an improvement this is in relative terms— is the overall latency 50% of what it was or 95%?
