Haskell does address it exactly as you say. Functions and values both being expressions is much less complex. As an example, imagine if you couldn't freely substitute 2+2 and 4. Functional languages say those are the same, imperative languages say one is a value and one is a function call.

It's not particularly intuitive if you're not used to high level math or functional programming, but it really is a lot simpler (not that it doesn't have downsides/leaks in the abstraction, but that's another discussion).
Oh definitely, I 100% agree. I'm not an expert enough on whether that's possible on iOS but I'm no supporter of them using the VPN argument as an excuse to siphon and sell the user data.

> Adjunct/non-tenure faculty should be kept in mind.

Absolutely. Most adjuncts and non-tenured professors are paid surprisingly low wages, and many colleges are relying more and more on them (probably because they're so much cheaper).
I'm quite disappointed in the HAL representation, it lacks standard compliant link relations. OPTIONS is not supported. PATCH with application/merge-patch+json is not supported. Range on items is not supported. JSON home document is not supported. Deprecation is either not supported or undocumented. HTTP authentication schemes are either not supported or undocumented. It looks like the authors of this software don't know what they're doing; I could build much richer HAL documents than them. Try with httpie to see what I mean:

I don’t know why this keeps coming up. There are apps that “duplicate” note, reminders, music, calendar, video, podcasts, etc.

There are even Siri Intents for most of them and many more in iOS 13.
"In mid-September 2016, we began the development process. In early December of 2016, the “Sense – Social Media Time Tracker” app made its debut in the App Store."

That's an incredibly fast build time!
My understanding is they had requirements that the screen could be moved from environments and rotated while mounted, so they came up with a custom quick-release magnetic + mechanical connector.

I'd think normal VESA mount holes would have worked fine as an option, especially since there has to be suitable depth with the power socket. However, I'd assume lack of extra holes to be an apple design decision sooner than assume a money grab.
They were breaking the app store guidelines too of not using MDM profiles for consumer apps. Same reason Facebook got their MDM profiles revoked too.

There seems to be a theme emerging here.
Explorer.exe hasn't been "the shell" in a few versions of Windows now, and never as directly in any of the Windows NT family (XP+) like it was to Windows 95 [1]. For instance, the taskbar and start menu have moved into an application that Taskbar calls the "Windows Shell Experience Host".

But the big issue here is not just making the Shell replaceable, and not even just replaceable at runtime (switching/reconfiguring Shells on the fly; which was not something that was possible even in the Windows 95 INI days), but also presumably a lot more about the Windows build and deployment infrastructure. Up to this point the Shells are built together with the rest of Windows, baked into the Windows image, and deployed together as a single versioned unit (one build of Windows). Sure maybe it is just an "unsexy" "refactoring" of existing components to be more component like, and try to minimize coupling between specific versions of them, but my DevOps hat certainly thinks it sounds like a lot of work for a codebase as old and large as Windows.

[1] Windows 95 did use Explorer.exe for just about everything, and many people do remember that for compatibility reasons it supported changing the "Shell" EXE in an INI file, and you could change it into the Ghost of Windows 3.1 PROGMAN.EXE or some alternatives shells supported that. That INI has never been in the Windows NT side of the family (XP+).
>For an example, Valve's Proton vs. native linux games, if I was a game dev, I wouldn't bother porting any Windows games to Linux, just rely on Proton instead

I see what you mean, but on the other hand, most game development studios already didn't bother to port anyway.

People were able to map out military bases using smartwatch GPS data. Imagine if you had straight up access to the databases of this information.

I guess individuals at these companies are caught within rigid corporate power structures? Maybe the internal tooling prevents that sort of thing (didn't prevent someone from deleting Trump's twitter feed that one time), or just rule of law in the USA is still too strong and the risk of being annihilated by the legal system is too great.

Still, I bet the temptation is strong.

Medical malpractice lawyer here:

Setting aside the sensational headline, this seems a reasonable result. According to the article, the hospitalist who did not see the patient decided to (a) opine that her symptoms were due to some other, incorrect cause; and (b) override the decision of the doctor who actually saw the patient. Why shouldn't this individual have accountability for the harm that he caused? He wants to make life or death decisions without so much as examining the patient and he doesn't want to be held responsible for those decisions. How is that fair?
Why are we so pessimistic?
Iraq did once have WMDs, namely poison gas that it used against tens of thousands of Iranian civilians... with the help of the CIA.

Today, many Americans have never even heard of the Iran-Iraq War. Those that have often never heard anything other than unsubstantiated American propaganda, particularly the American accusation that Iran was using poison gas against Iraq. An accusation for which there has never been any evidence.

When it comes to the American government and international affairs, any position less than reserved skepticism is totally irresponsible.
No worries, too much work tends to do that to you, I recommend some beers to fix the state of mind.

Regarding the implemention, I presumed you asked about the lock-free logic, apart from m_currentIndex which is used with the m_commands vector, the LinearAllocator also has to be lock-free, see it's alloc function.
The allocator is used for storing the command packets (along with their command data) and also their auxiliary data (if they have that).

Another implementation detail of the allocator is that it has two modes, an auto-alignment mode which requires two atomic operations (load acquire and compare_exchange_weak) and will be slower but lower memory usage, therother mode uses the alignment of the CommandPacket class which will be faster (one fetch_add) but consume more memory.

And another detail is the CommandPacket uses a intrusive list approach, that's how you actually chain multiple commands together and do an indirect function call (instead of virtual or other blasphemies) with dispatch of the command.

Hope that clears some things up about it.
I was just chatting with a friend who built a whole corporate process planning tool using Meteor. I think many platforms such Dart has the same concept and has a much larger user base.

Another case illustrating that "build it and they'll come" logic doesn't work in startups.
The point is that cars don't need to make an immediate jump from "current levels of safety" to "plane levels of safety."

Anything that moves the needle noticeably closer to "plane levels" is a solid improvement in terms of reducing unnecessary deaths.
You'd think that, as reasonably smart people, you might stop and ask questions such as:

- Is this permitted within Apple's T&C's?

- What are the privacy issues? More so if I'm not fully informing my users we're intercepting their data via VPN (I don't know if that's made clear via author's T&C's or during installation)

- Even if all of the above were not concerns, am I able to properly secure user's data (against say state actors)

....even before going ahead and developing an app such as this.
It is funny how you assume Apple is first party and it gets to decide who is trustworthy or not. It might be better at privacy when compared to other companies, but a for profit company can never be fair or even correct when making such decisions on privacy.
Companies should never require SMS as a 2nd factor. It isn't secure. Let's call out names:

* Twitter requires you to enable cell-phone based 2nd factor before they let you enable any other 2nd factor. Luckily in my case their buggy software determined that my cell phone number is "incorrect", so I was never able to.

* Twilio (the authors of Authy!) let you use TOTP codes from Authy in addition to SMS-based 2FA. There is no way to disable the SMS authentication, so your account is never secure.

* Many banks assume that SMS is a secure channel, which it isn't, and force its use as 2FA.

This should get more publicity and companies should be called out on forcing people to use SMS as a 2nd factor. There are many reasons why this is a bad idea, and the story described in the article is just one of many possible attacks.

I assume by $700 you mean $7000? Also wondering if your $209 / month figure was accurate. What your comment currently describes is 1/4 the premium and 1/10th the deductible that my family has.

I agree that healthcare in the US is completely broken. It is in fact one of my favorite things to gripe about to anyone who will listen or who happens to be in my vicinity at the wrong moment.

I think our current "out of pocket max" is somewhere around $6k/year. The bill for having twins blew through that pretty well. When we had our first child, our deductible was roughly twice as much and I think we maybe just scratched the out of pocket max. Those insurance premiums were only a third of what we pay now though, which was a better trade off in my opinion.

Would we be financially ruined by running into something like that again? No. Would we be majorly inconvenienced? Yes.
And people thought I was weird for dancing by myself in front of my TV. The poor folks at the CIA will never un-see that.
Honestly, at the time I was concerned with surviving the next weeks, rather than worrying if some poor person could have used it. From where I sat, merely being poor would have been an improvement.

Renting means being potentially being able to ditch payments while you still have at least some money to survive on, if you can recognize that is a possibility.

I’m skittish now. The moment the paycheck stops, for some reason beyond my control, I’m dropping everything unnecessary to survival and paring down to being able to live in a closet, if necessary.
Results matter. Incarceration is great for satisfying a need for punishment and vengeance, but as correction it has been clearly demonstrated to make problems worse. Jails and prisons function as networks for criminals to connect and share and are extremely effective at promoting gang activity. If we want to deal with problems then we are going to have to stoop to the kind of methods that are used with medical care such as pledging to do no harm and using evidence based interventions.
I know Apple is less known to do this, but was there any approach from Apple for an acqui-hire your group and help develop a more strategic product from within Apple?

While I agree with you that Spring is clunky, if you're making a simple application I don't think anyone will recommend Spring.

Where Spring shines is enterprise. When you have 600k concurrent users it's just something I can trust. Other solutions can work too, but we value the stability.

It's difficult to see what your main point is, but what I take from it is the idea that aircraft autopilots and self-driving cars are two completely separate problem domains, with very different requirements, resources, and operating regimes.

It would seem to be foolish to have a goal of having "no fatalities per 100 billion miles", or whatever the current spec level for airline travel is, as the minimum operating requirement for automobiles. Likewise requiring two expert-level operators at the controls, with re-certification every six months seems to be out of scope. So why should the AP try to be designed assuming those things are true?

Javalin is a bit of a cop out because it's not strictly Java.

I agree with modern Java improvements for the most part, especially if you are including Kotlin in that ecosystem - I really enjoy writing Kotlin.

However, I've professionally switched to Go and really wouldn't want to go back to Java much. I already think Go is a bit bloated, and I still feel like Java (even w/ the latest modern features) still gets incredibly bloated.
Can't find anywhere prerequisite on segment offloading, any link on this?

Bingo. There are several examples from years back where Apple copied an app and then removed it from the app store, but this isn't one of those times.
I strongly suspect the problem will continue until someone gets a nice, fat judgement against a telco over SIM swap damage. As it stands now they lose very little when it happens, why should they make their systems secure?
I'm completely happy hauling around a full size spare for a once in a decade blowout. Having that could easily save me 8 hours of frustration. Possibly more depending on where I am and what time it is.

I'm not carrying it for if I get a slow leak on my work commute, I'm carrying it for when I'm taking forest roads in durango, or driving across nebraska at 2am. I carry a blanket and chains in winter for the same reasons.

>My plan was to build the product in 6–12 months (for an initial MVP)

For the kind of product being described, 6-12 months seems way too long for an initial MVP. I also think statements like "build the entire tool" conflict with the concept of delivering something actionable / people-will-pay-for within a short amount of time.
Those are developer tools, so of course they need to do things you would never want Slack to do, for example. Also, Apple themselves ported Dtrace to MacOS. If you want the ultimate computing surveillance tool, Dtrace is a good bet.

SUVs are more dangerous to pedestrians and cyclists (and scooter riders) than sedans. If you are using a tool that endangers everyone around you then you bear partial responsibility for increasing the latent risk of transportation even if you’re not the proximate cause of a given accident.
I'm a little confused by this. It refers to an exchange of eth1 for eth2. Does this mean currency on the old PoW-based network will require conversion?
You ignored my main point. What is capitalism?

There are two books that cover this subject well: The Case Against Education: https://jakeseliger.com/2018/03/12/the-case-against-educatio..., which argues that most "education" is really signaling, not human capital acquisition, and Paying for the Party: https://jakeseliger.com/2014/04/27/paying-for-the-party-eliz..., which argues that many schools have evolved some substantive majors and some non-substantive majors. If we can move people from non-substantive majors into trades and the like, that will likely be a win for just about everyone.

I also don't think we're going to see a cure-all, but it's hard for almost any intellectually honest person in the non-elite parts of the higher-education industry to look at what's going on and think it's great.

I understand Dijkstra's anti-BASIC quote as a reference to his observation that the values underlying such a procedural/imperative language predispose a programmer to think exclusively operationally.

https://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/EWD/transcriptions/EWD10xx/E...

Another well-known Dijkstra epigram has it that "Progress is possible only if we train ourselves to think about programs without thinking of them as pieces of executable code." BASIC programs don't lend themselves to being treated as anything other than pieces of executable code.
It may well be, I don't use EC2 much at all. Checking is easy enough: ~$ ethtool -k ethX

A good view is part of real estate value. When do the wealthy not have a better view?
That all seems pretty true. People have spent that past decade telling me that I'm going to be less well off than my parents, though. So I guess my opinion is that it's best to just accept it and adjust your lifestyle accordingly. We still live like kings compared to most of human history.

Also, the social safety net in the US isn't great, but it definitely exists. You can be a pretty big screw up and still have a roof over your head. You just won't have much else.

Mazdas still have screens. They have a knob and a few buttons between the seats to control the screen. This change doesn't do much for safety or usability.

The knobs are just as distracting as using a touch screen -- you have to look at the screen to see what is being selected, and you have to take a hand off the wheel to use the knob. In many cases it takes several knob movements and button presses to get to something I could have just reached out and touched. How is that any safer?

Eh, was that rule not circumvented with conway? You can compress more data into a given numeric format, by moving the complexity into rule systems- aka determinstic games? Like a big number of chess games, or a group of possible games growing from just a sequence of letters and numbers.

The tradeoff for this limited space is though a complex ruleset and to recreate the data, lots of computation.
And to add....you sell a TV once but you can monetize the data for years.
I used to work for a mobile agency and we used to complete a decent sized app from concept to in-store in about a month.

Very easy if the tooling is good, the testing is easy (only a few device types) and it's only one target platform.
So, I'm unclear what happened here. They were exploiting a hole in the VPN setting of iOS? If it was a bad-actor VPN, then I support Apple doing what they did. If it was Apple not liking the business model of a VPN that competes with their own new OS-core functionality, then that's another black mark on the AppStore model. This company seems to be asserting the latter, no? Are they twisting the facts?
