One could argue that Bill Clinton's response to whether he had "sexual relations with that woman" is also a "framing issue." (How do you define relations? If you define sexual relations a certain way, Clinton's response of "no" is fine)

This kind of "framing" is equivocation (aka Orwellian double-speak) and the author is correct in calling it out.
> If you remain a typical, more laid-back American driver, you could have problems. You also need to be alert and pay even more attention to the road than required in the US.

I've driven around the US & Germany. There is no "typical" US driver. They vary based upon what kind of area in the US they live in, the time of day & the amount of traffic.

I do prefer the semi's & large trucks on the far right rule & the pass only on the left rule. This is sometimes applied around the US but plenty of cities have people passing in every lane which seems to slow down traffic overall.
Couldn't that be illusory? There's more people watching films now than there ever has been before. And if there were only one film released this year, it would surely break all the records because nobody would have anything else to watch. That wouldn't mean that film was the best film ever. A larger number of more diverse films could generate more total income and offer more satisfaction, but it would be much harder for them to break records.
Macs are for uninformed consumers, you are willing to shop around.

They are prepackaged fashion statements. College kids and middle class mom's, basically when someone else is paying, Apple wants your business.

Devs don't use them unless they absolutely must to compile an iOS app.
I'd replace the Bowline with the Figure-8. It's faster to tie on a bight, and only slightly slower when tying around a fixed anchor. It's also a lot stronger and less failure prone.

The "aluminum housing" is what contains the circle pattern.
> (Bike lanes) are designed for people with less active riding styles. Elderly people, kids, women.

Agreed women are underrepresented, but I don't think your statement is helping change the perception that women aren't real cyclists. Bike lanes are designed for people with less active riding style. Elderly people, kids, women, and men.
Funny, I posted that phrase not 4 days ago, in response to a suggestion that Microsoft adopt Firefox. I was harshly downvoted, and every reply was along the lines of "that's a not a thing" and "not this tripe again" and "fake news".

Maybe they really have won over skeptics. In any case, there are other demographics on HN than on display in this thread.

FullStory | Software Engineering, SRE, & Product | Remote and Onsite | Atlanta, GA

FullStory’s mission is to improve user experiences on the web. We’re accomplishing this mission daily by providing a platform that allows developers and product teams to automatically collect ultra high definition analytics from their sites, then make those analytics available through a powerful search engine, pixel-perfect session playback, and machine learning insights.

Capturing and processing data at this level of completeness is no mean task. Challenges range from developing highly performant JS that hooks into the browser at its lowest levels on our Recording & Replay team, to building the backend that scales to ingest and provide analysis of all that data on our Search & Insights team. And the scale that FullStory runs at means that there are lots of interesting problems and opportunities for high-leverage contribution.

FullStory is a remote-friendly, hyper-growth SaaS company based out of Atlanta. The work environment we've cultivated is aligned around our three watchwords: clarity, empathy, and bionics. We value high-quality/low-ego collaboration and use automation to eliminate toil in daily work. If that sounds good to you, join us!

Please submit via our jobs page: https://www.fullstory.com/jobs/ . And feel free to drop me a note if you have any questions: dk@fullstory.com
Both of them have reasonable competitors and are hardly anti-competitive. What is your reasoning here?
Yeah, I'm a pure right-laner myself in the states, and this sounds like my version of hell.
I think the answer is to expand externally.

The solution I settled on was a Mac Mini to serve as my interface and run desktop applications, and a big hefty expandable Threadripper box running Linux that I SSH into to do all heavy lifting (and that I can put away in a closet). A NAS holds most files.

I've been really happy with the Mac Mini for this role, and the Threadripper box provides more power than I could reasonably get from any Mac.

This must be the .. fifth entirely new UI framework from Apple?

This isn't true at all. Since iOS launched there has been UIKit and then this SwiftUI.

They didn't say anything about iOS. There have been lots of UI frameworks from Apple, some abandoned before they were even finished:

QuickDraw, Quickdraw GX, HIToolbox, AppKit, Cocoa Touch/UIKit, Playgrounds/IB, SwiftUI

The constantly changing frameworks and languages are a useful strategy from platform vendors - they do help provide platform lockin, and make it very very difficult to provide cross platform apps. That is a real threat to Apple with offerings like flutter from Google. Of course there are other reasons to make a clean break with the past, but there is a lot of work just to stand still in developing for a platform like Mac OS or IOS - they don't highly value backwards compatibility and often introduce sweeping changes. Constant change is in the platform vendor's financial interest, and I don't think it's unfair to point that out.

Just to take one example - apps built for the original iOS are now almost entirely obsolete, and it's not worth reusing any of their code in a modern swift app.
I disagree that it’s always been this way. I bought a G4 tower when I was in college and it sure as heck wasn’t $6,000 back then.

This is the only traditional desktop computer that Apple sells, so it’s disappointing that everybody outside of movie studio employees has to fall back to an iMac or a Windows/Linux machine.
Ah ok. Well there we go. Let the fireworks begin.
Our fundraising was just announced in TechCrunch today :)

Our round was led by Felicis Ventures, with participation from Village Global, Global Founders Capital, and numerous notable angel investors, including Elad Gil, Katie Stanton, and Avichal Garg.

The one multi-window functionality I need is the ability have the iPad in portrait mode and split the screen horizontally. That way I could have a book or movie on top and notes on the bottom. It seems that iPadOS still cannot do this very basic thing. It's frustrating beyond belief knowing that this device could be so much more useful with that tiny basic functionality that has existed in GUIs for decades.

(And why on Earth does iOS allow me to split a portrait mode vertically, creating two thin strips that are seemingly useless for any work?)
I'm looking forward to seeing how well the matte option performs. Maybe we'll even see it on other devices such as the MacBook Pro.
There isn't much correlation between what is posted on signs and what is safe and what is legal.

We see all kinds of insanity in what gets painted on the road.

The option to take the lane is always there and it always works.

If you always follow what is posted some of the time you will be doing something incredibly dangerous.

There's an intersection I go through very regularly on both car & bike (10-20x per week) on my way to work. If you are following the bike lane it actually makes you ride up to teh right onto a highway overpass ramp and then cross the highway overpass ramp and come back down it (wrong way) to get back to the path. If you're riding in the lane you just go straight through the intersection like a car. Which one of these do you think surprises the cars more and sets up more conflict?
I happen to agree, that sideloading should definitely be an option. Unfortunately too many people believe that censorship is appropriate, and that letting multinational corporations control and prohibit speech is a good thing.

A lot of the liberal left has gone, only to be replaced by the identitarian left. It's pretty bad when the middle-left liberal democrat identifies more with Republicans than they do most of their own party's candidates.
Maybe it's useful because its position is ideal to emulate the missing function keys.
The control over what iOS developers can do has been the source of a lot of contention recently. Facebook is Big Bad as we all know, but I agree that they’re not as much a monopoly.
I didn't say anything about accessibility.

I said it has to do with how the country presents itself. If you polled people going to Asia - you'd see a huge # of them would be going to Thailand or Bali (80/20) - likely due to them being portrayed in the media quite a bit. Indonesia is also significantly Muslim.

You seem to be looking for a fight where there isn't one. Maybe you should reconsider your assumptions about Americans.
How is this related to login?
> I want a good old email/username login!

Absolutely. One would still be able to do that (Apple's providing SSO here, not enforcing any guidelines, as of today). Though, I'm happy that friends and family would be able to choose anonymous per-app email-ids on the fly and still be able to SSO.
The price indicates that that is not the case
Unfortunately, iOS 13 drops support for iPhone 5s and iPhone 6.[1] Last year, iOS 12 didn't drop support for any devices. The iPhone 6 is a very popular device, and was still sold by Apple less than two years ago.

I guess the questions are whether:

1. copyright owners forced Google to implement DRM

2. Or, Google welcomed DRM (with the intention of lock-in)

3. Or, Google should have kept Chrome DRM free and fought the copyright owners...
So you're saying the Corvette is a flagship model that loses money for the parent company (unless their entire R&D is less than $20 million)

Perhaps that's what Apple sees in the Mac Pro as well.
When I absolutely must compile an iOS app I use a vmware virtual machine I download from the pirate bay :P
Nah, do what we do on the web: Polyfill. It wouldn't be perfect and have all the interactive tools, but a API-compatible lib that abstracts over AppKit / UIKit seems doable, then just switch imports when the future arrives.
No offense intended. I did preface by saying I'm no expert. I'm basing my opinion on what I've read by some people, such as:

"What we need for this fluctuating renewable energy in the electricity mix is not baseload. Baseload is poison for our electricity transition in Germany," -- Thorsten Herdan, a director general for energy policy at the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy

"The idea of there being an average or 'base' electricity load, doesn't make sense. Let alone having this sort of big, slow-changing power station to meet that load," -- CSIRO Energy Director Dr Glenn Platt.

"Technology has moved on from base load, and now you want flexible power. And that's what demand management, batteries and pumped hydro is," -- Professor Andrew Blakers, director of the ANU Centre for Sustainable Energy Systems.

And reports like Brattle Group's "Advancing Past “Baseload” to a Flexible Grid", and a few more which I have forgotten the name of.

And of course, knowing about the tech (IoT and such) that enables real-time communication of energy prices. And finally, my own guess that people will change their behaviour if it hits their wallet.

Sorry if I misread or got the arguments wrong.
Bullshit. Best example, friend buys cat food every month, no ads. Talks about it one day and then gets ads for cat food. All other variables were in place on the other occasions.

What about this administration suggests they're really into antitrust enforcement on its merits?

Only reason the GOP is interested in regulating tech is because they believe tech platforms should be forced to carry their political message without restrictions.

I guess we'll see how this plays out. I would of course like to see anti competitive behavior be minimized, but how they will go about that I'm not sure. Even if they are broken up, I doubt we will see much improvement for lowering the barrier of entry for these industries. I would like to hear what other users' thoughts are about what to do to prevent anti competitive tactics without regulating the market too heavily.
I'm curious where in the US. I find it varies greatly depending on location. The Autobahn did a bit as well.

The bigger the nearby city, the more traffic, the bigger pain is my global finding.
Not sure what you are talking about. They actually were optimising for airflow. If you look at the picture you couldn't design to allow more air to come through whilst maintaining a rigid structure: https://www.apple.com/mac-pro/design/

As for dust/dirt you could just spray it with compressed air.

> AFAIK, Honeycomb was primarily for tablets due to the (then current) UI scaling terribly and primarily being for portrait orientation. This was the era of 320x240 screens, after all, so there was bound to be some issues when scaling that up to tablet resolutions.

No, not at all. Android's UI has scaled exceptionally well since long before then, and nobody on Android was using 320x240 screens at that time. Android had already long since done the high DPI jump from 320x480 (HTC G1) to 480x800 (Nexus One).

You need a UI that takes advantage of the extra screen real-estate, yes, but there was nothing about Android's core UI toolkit that failed to handle that in any way.

> Since most of the improvements ended up being useful for the upcoming "phablets" as much as tablets, Google just merged those features into Jelly Bean and gave up on a separate tablet UI.

Google never actually forked Android for tablets, so there was nothing to "merge." They just focused on the tablet UIs & devices such that the phone ones had bugs. You can boot up Honeycomb on a phone-sized device and poke about. Everything's basically there, it's just super buggy.
The US isn't Germany.

Our population density is very much lower so transmission costs per connection are very much higher.

I grew up in an area where the length of transmission line per home would easily have been calculated in miles. I currently live in an area where transmission line per home would be measured in feet or maybe inches.
MSFT is getting hammered along with the rest, though.
Apple is evolving and adapting in a way the rest of the industry can’t follow.

And, they have the money to do it.

For as long as Android has google ownership... they will never, ever be able to compete on the level of privacy that Apple is now buying into.

I'm absolutely not arguing against proper water pricing, I agree that the price should be increased to try to decrease waste. I'm arguing against privatization.

Good point about the elasticity, I should have said it's very inelastic up to the point where the necessity is met, and then it becomes much more elastic.
Sounds very similar to Sealand https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principality_of_Sealand
> There is a significant difference between water pipes and the pension system, which is that water pipes are easily affordable by the federal government and pensions for everyone are not.

The water/sewer infrastructure crisis is on the same order of magnitude as the public pension crisis (into the single-digit trillions of dollars).

> What exactly is the benefit of getting pricing "right" here? Avoiding water wastage? Environmental benefits?

All of the above. For example, when connection charges are too low, people are incentivized to engage in greenfield development rather than infill development. Having the federal government further subsidize things only exacerbates that problem.

> I'd wager that a group of environmental scientists could find a "correct" price that addresses these concerns much more accurately than could market forces.

They have. And elected municipal entities uniformly ignore those results.
As a user even... to my knowledge, MS hasn't actually sold my data to anyone, or manipulated search results in favor of a particular political campaign, or acted in mass-censoring, or established policy that favors a political party.
If you're a developer on a large (multi-GB) codebase, a beefy multicore system can be great for quick compile times, but hefty storage may not be a necessity.
That means Microsoft has a better product, that doesn't mean it's a monopoly.
I highly recommend buying a 2015 Macbook Pro, if you can find someone willing to part with theirs. Apple laptop hardware started going off the rails after they shipped that one with touch bar + keyboard shenanigans.
Up the build quality, but keep the hyper rugged design philosophy, round things off so it slides into a backpack easily, make sure there's plenty of ports, and I'd consider buying tablet PC with about this form factor. (Yes, yes, I could just buy a tablet PC and put it in a paranoid-level ruggedized case.)
It's already available with a long press on the refresh icon, "request desktop site". Probably it'll let you request a mobile version now and requests the desktop site by default.
I'm not sure why they'd consider Threadripper for the Mac Pro. This machine fits into Epic's target cases and could possibly live up to the asking price of the whole package at that point. Given how the rest of the mac ecosystem is going, I'd only expect the most stubborn of professional communities pick this up (film editing folks seems to still buy the Apple hype).
Holy smokes, since when did interest in our constitutional rights of free speech become a "right" thing?

It seems like the "From the right" should be "right-wing belief that tech platforms push left-wing biases", true or not, that is their gripe.
Sorry if my use of terms was confusing. I'm referring to cold sales emails, which in the US are still legal.
Doesn't really work like that though. In the Utah example, it was "experience years of homelessness and other problems" then you get your house. Hardly a great choice of lifestyle.
So are we just resorting to making things up now?

I've skimmed the document and I have to agree with you. I think it's a pretty vital point and perhaps should not have been deleted, but it appears you are right. So upvoted.

On the developer side of things, the 2018 Mac Mini update is a much lower priced computer with an option for a 6-core i7. If you really need a dedicated GPU, you can add one with a Thunderbolt enclosure.

The new Mac Pro is for movie studios and maybe very large machine learning models.

As has been pointed out before this should be plain wrong. Keys and messages are kept separate, in separate jurisdictions even.

This way Telegram can back up messages without dumping them to Googles servers like WhatsApp does by default.
There's no professional that would buy a machine with 256GB of storage. Let's call it what it is - a throwaway configuration meant to hit a price point.
Azure is still incredibly small compared to AWS, and it has plenty of competition. No one is attacking Amazon for having AWS on Antitrust grounds anyhow. It certainly is a cash cow they use to corner other markets, but it by itself is not problematic.
It's not a "way of looking at things", it's a statement. A statement cannot be sad, and even if a statement makes someone sad, that doesn't make it false.

edit: yeah, figures. When calling out ElsaGate, I got replies like "your argument is literally 'think of the children'". But in this thread it's all so heartwarming, or respectively turning statements that aren't dripping with soppy general statements that mean nothing into an "attitude" or "way of looking at things" (which remains BS, and reaching 500 karma and finding the downvote button doesn't make that false, either)
Of course they are large. It's designed to let air in.
