Based on what creators I watch on youtube frequently complain about the problem with youtube is less the recommendation algorithm and more the constant changing of rules around how the UX works, with little/no documentation. There's also the seemingly arbitrary demonetization of videos with little to no recourse from creators.

An example: you used to "subscribe" to a youtuber to get notifications about new videos, but then notifications frequently don't happen, then they added the little bell toggle which supposedly controls whether you get notifications or not, but then notifications still don't seem to happen all the time.
I live in Beijing, and they seem to work well. It may help that they are ubiquitous. Or that drivers are used to seeing cyclists (and scooters) everywhere.
I haven't been an IOS developer in year but there used to be (in the IOS7 days) a way to run some limited tasks in the background, especially to handle push notifications IIRC. Sounds like this is an improvement - but isn't this years and years overdue? I assume this is trivial on Android.
1 additional bit of information allows exponentially more complexity to exist. Digital scales very very well.
Thunderbolt 3 basically just provides 4 lanes of PCIe 3.0
macOS Catalina (10.15) is entirely built on-top of Metal. So, yes.
One easy fix would be to shift municipalities to an accounting system that actually reflected the true state of affairs. That way you could see the chronic underinvestment and ongoing cost of infrastructure.
Come to LA and you will see 5 or 6 easily. And LA has the added bonus of having left and right exits which they tell you about only a few hundred meters before. You see plenty of cars going from all the way right to all the way left in a hurry...
Depends on the intent, if you go through every single website and agency and ensure that carbon tax is never mentioned by pre reviewing and screening them out, then yes. If its just one, then likely has nothing to do with support or lack of support, if its all and then there is a policy, then yes, obviously there is some intent and apparentness that you don't want it talked about.
"However, I can't help but feel that this paradigm would work best when your app is a fairly basic CRUD thing"

Honestly, this is something I've been struggling with coming to terms to for a while.

Really, what mobile app isn't just a CRUD thing? Literally every 3rd party app I can think of on my phone talks to some REST service in some way. Even the video games, photo editors, notes apps, etc. They all use the cloud where the cloud contains most of the business logic and the app is a thin visual client proxying the data.

You could argue that, for example, a first person shooter is not CRUD heavy. But after the match, when you're looking at leaderboards or sending friend requests or chatting with your friends in the lobby...guess where that UI is updating from?

Yep, another CRUD API. It's everywhere. I really want someone to prove me wrong because I want to expand my horizons - what the hell isn't a CRUD thing these days, other than completely offline apps?

Or they already rely on FB login and are now _obligated_ by Apple to implement this feature. I work for a company that has allowed people to create accounts with FB login (meaning we don’t have an internal password associated with them). This change would ostensibly require us to also allow Apple Sign In _even if we don’t want to_ just to continue to service existing users.

There really isn’t much choice here for us. Leave Apple / iOS? Abandon FB login and piss off thousands of people? Implement Apple Sign In regardless of its tech stack / requirements?
This is also a consequence of speed limits that are artificially low.

In the US, people who are going at or over the speed limit feel entitled to move as far left as is necessary to pass slower-moving vehicles.

But when you reach the far left lanes the person going 5 over feels entitled to stay there, even if if the person behind them is willing to go 10 over.

I think having no speed limit means you have to yield to faster cars, and enforces politeness. And the faster moving cars get past you and everyone is good.
It might be. On monitors the difference between a 120hz refresh rate and 144hz refresh rate is about 14ms between frames. Some people (claim) to tell the difference.
This gives me some weird feelings. I mean, if you ask a website to turn some content "unpreferred" without user consensus, isn't that also some type of censorship? In fact, many Chinese websites are doing it right now, and it's very effective in terms of censoring contents.

However, I support the idea of content flagging, but instead of making them "unpreferred", maybe add a mark saying "Propaganda from XXX" so people can be more cautious about those information themselves?
My first job was more or less like this, I guess vicarious ambition (i.e. making someone else's dream come true) can carry naive young people a long way. I'll never do that again though.

So HN app swallowed the music note emoji I put in as a clue for those who don't know the song.
That change is likely because Google regressed and Apple progressed along this axis. Now project forward.

I'm less concerned about the 256GB SSD. If this is a true Pro set up, then there's going to be very large storage media attached. The internal SSD is just to store the OS and apps. My main concern is the lack of a mention of Nvidia support. I'm very curious of the apparent bad blood between Apple and Nvidia. Were the GPU issues from the 2011 MacBook Pros to blame, or just one of the pieces of straw?
This is the best way to look at it. No matter what your political leanings, you have to admit maybe it's not the best thing if these companies can have such enormous influence over such an enormous percent of the entire human population.

The claim is that conspiracy content is more sticky than other content, and since the algorithm is optimized for stickiness, it's naturally inclined to skew in that direction.

In other words, starting from any random keyword... the algorithm is naturally inclined to skew towards conspiracy videos in its recommendations.

At least that's what the article (and the sources it cites) are alleging.

How's using homebrew any of this different than being able to run "base64" and "uuidgen" on Windows? It's not like either of those applications are part of a Windows installation anyway.

On the other hand, I believe their automobile maintenance is held to higher (engineering) standards, which would exclude many cars in the US.

There is a solution to this universal problem: strong military supervision and strong aligned incentives of the workers to cooperate (serving the country, avoiding gulag); see american and soviet nuclear bomb projects. 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. It would be interesting to see some analysis why that was - was it more powerful country economy, or better organizational patterns in the program?

Where I work I get 6 weeks of vacation and 10 floating holidays. It's actually pretty difficult to use up that much vacation if you try to take it in big chunks, and I am sort of averse to travel (because a former job I had required so much that now I am sick of it even for personal "fun"). So now I take almost every Friday off or Monday. If you work it out with holidays you basically work 4 days a week. Since I have been doing this for several years now I have found that I am actually a lot more productive than when I work 5 days a week and take several weeks in a row off. For me, the 4 day work week makes me happier and I get more done.

That's a reasonable choice in my opinion. If you want to make any videos available to younger kids, you might have a look at Youtube-dl which would allow you to store pre-viewed videos offline on a device for them to watch.
That’s probably more a BSD vs GNU issue, to be fair. Mac is based on FreeBSD. GNU/Linux, well... :)
No, I think zsh is strictly more feature rich at the cost of a little more memory (like 1MB maybe). For macs this should be irrelevant.
"But what’s completely correct here is that Chrome is, quite explicitly, blocking users’ freedom to use their web browser the way they would expect with a piece of open source software; "

No, what you expect from Open Source software is to be able to fork it, modify it, recompile it, and use the modifications.

Open Source isn't about end-user features, it's about development freedom. A completely open source piece of software could have a set of APIs and UX that keeps you on the rails and doesn't let the end user do what they want. What Open Source shouldn't do, is prevent you from modifying it to edit the app to do what you want after a recompile, and ship and share your modifications with others, that's the freedom open source provides.

Arguably the DRM binary blob angle results in Tivoization, but the idea that this is some elaborate plot for Chrome lock-in by Google is ludicrous. Patent-encumbered compression codecs also created similar headaches and Google went out of their way to try break the MPEG-LA consortium monopoly. The DRM issue is basically forced on the industry by the content publishing industry. If you want to stop this particular issue from making open source browsers hard to develop, you need to talk Netflix, Hulu, Disney, and all of the other players.

Or you just accept that you can't watch most Hollywood produced content in a web browser and leave it up to native apps. Or, we could just mandate everyone have to continue to support Adobe Flash players.

DRM isn't going to magically go away if Chrome were a separate company.

What no one has articulated in any of these conversations is any actual harm that's been done to them. There's a lot of catastrophizing about theoretical harms, but the Web and Mobile industries are far more vibrant than they were in the 90s, and launching some device that includes a browser, mobile OS, or embedded kernel is a fraction of the cost and effort it was in the 90s to do something similar.

Things have gotten easier across the board. Someone launching a new IoT device these days forks chromium, webkit, or android for the UI. This would have cost you huge licensing fees a decade ago and a large engineering team.

How many successful startups are running off node (v8) now? Or Electron (e.g. Discord, Slack, etc)?
Do you have a quote for that? It was true for a while on cost/performance because the previous Mac Pro was never upgraded but outsight of that anomalous period the major players tend to be fairly competitive if you’re comparing equivalent parts.

> It received just enough to pass, don't forget that.

Kind of. One version passed the House, another the Senate (), and a questionable reconciliation process created a unified bill.

My point is that I don't find the "Obama nobly lost to the Swamp" narrative all that convincing. He could have required, say, 10 republican senators agree before (unsuccessfully) overhauling one of the largest parts of the economy. That* failing is what losing to the Swamp might look like.

Maybe that wouldn't have worked, to be fair. But preemptively deciding to play hardball doesn't fit the "The Swamp was too swampy for Obama" narrative.

not actively using their resources to magnify the reach of your favored actors speech

In 2019, having online speech without discovery and viral propagation is obviously disadvantaged. That's like saying in 1960's America, it would have been alright for networks to ban a political party from using radio and television, because they still have newspaper ads.

What you're advocating is that one side of the political spectrum should get a huge media advantage in terms of "friction" and network effects -- because their side owns the companies controlling it. That's not advocating for a free marketplace of ideas. That's advocating for a rigged marketplace of ideas, because you happen to like the direction of the tilt.

Would you be satisfied if Republicans were deplatforming your pundits and widely censoring speech you favored on YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter? I wouldn't, and I don't think you'd like it very much. (In a way, it was like dealing with the Moral Majority types back in the 80's and 90's.) Be careful how you rig the system and distort the marketplace. One day, it might well be the turn of people you don't like. (1)

Free Speech is more important than property rights:

(1) - Given that I agree with Bret Weinstein, that some Bad Actors are exploiting the far left for their own purposes, this is basically already happening. It's just that the bias of most left leaning people prevents them from seeing the corruption on their own side.
>Guaranteeing that subscribers will see their recent content could be a good selling point.

Sorry, doesn't Youtube already do that? I subscribe to 20-30 channels, and in my subscriptions feed it simply shows all the videos from channels I'm subscribed to in reverse chronological order - exactly the way people say they want to see these feeds.
Did you notice how many qualifiers you had there? The trend on macOS is clear: harder and harder to run/do anything that isn't blessed by Apple.

How is AirTable not mentioned in this article? If Excel has any major startup competitor my money is on them. I use spreadsheets constantly and work with a lot of people who aren’t the savviest when it comes to technology.

It’s not quite a replacement for Excel yet but I absolutely see it heading that direction.

Ack, making the bike lanes protected in this case could easily make things worse. Additional barriers right up to the on/off ramps might reduce visibility of bikes approaching the crossing. Worst case, at night or during less than ideal weather, even attentive drivers might not have enough warning to stop safely. Good luck at the meeting, hopefully it's not too late to get them working on an actual solution...
I'd buy one in a heartbeat, I don't honestly give a shit what storage comes with the system. I've got a separate, dedicated system for storage that's got all kinds of backup/redundancy/failover/etc. configured.
The upshot is that aggregate measures obscure what's really happening when there's a wide range of observations.

On average, wealth has increased since the Great Recession, but dis-aggregate the data and you'll find that many communities aren't very healthy.

This study dis-aggregates by zip code, and if you could further decomp into neighborhoods I'm sure you'd see much greater disparities.

But what does this ultimately say that we didn't already know? That the US is an extraordinarily unequal society? That the "recovery" was captured by some and left others behind?

Taking this to the next logical analytical step would be really powerful. How does this economic recovery compare with prior recoveries? When the next recession hits, who will bear the heaviest burden? Do the communities hurt most also show other signs of distress like lower life expectancy, higher crime rates, etc.? Is there a causal relationship we can detect?

If so, what are the implications for fiscal and monetary policy?
