FiveThirtyEight did a great podcast series on gerrymandering in 2017 [1]. It turns out to be a much more complicated topic than I expected. Some gerrymandering is even legally required to ensure proper representation of minority groups even if they live in somewhat distributed communities.

Perhaps a better term would be “pool”. Anyway, what’s being leaked is “handles” or events not actually fds. You only actually need as many fds as the maximum possible number passed to a syscall. The mapping of handles/event objects in user space does not have to be 1:1 with the kernel resource.

Well, new iPhone sales may not fuel the future growth of revenue for the company. Yet, the existing base of iPhone devices is definitely fueling the revenue growth for the company's new and future services.

Rare are the non-iPhone owners who choose Apple Music, or Apple TV... The iPhone is the gateway to that walled garden.

The iPhone is still THE MOST important product for Apple.

No iPhone means no services and no wearable sales.

The iPad may sell independently of the iPhone and Macs would as well, but they are both significantly smaller than the iPhone market.

Apple appears to believe they've saturated their addressable market, and their best bet for growth is to sell more to their existing customer base.

I suspect we will see a shift in their marketing as well. The general ads which would attract new users to the iPhone platform will reduce, and the focus will be more on getting existing iPhone users to upgrade, or buy additional services/products.

It's alright. One of the things that separates discussion on HN from other sites is that we like to try to stay on-topic. In the past I've witnessed many articles on Slashdot go from discussing the article with the first two or three comments to somehow having a 100-comment discussion of the merits of Open Source and Linux. This would happen even on discussions of some new science or new widget. Inevitably there would be some derogatory comment about Microsoft in there regardless of the content of the original article.

As a consequence I try to avoid mentioning things that will go in a political direction, like Trademark, Copyright, etc. as these terms tend to be very charged for certain people. Once you bring it up people will dogpile the discussion and eventually your article on the Lost Art of Lacing Cable is full of comments about how Trademarks are stupid and Copyright is Copywrong.

It's not really about relevance, but rather that the main focus of the comment is something that invites a lot of political discussion with very little substance.
As was most of the western world, recovering from the oil crisis of 73, and experiencing chaos as a result through the rest of the decade. Hardly unique to the UK.

UK was largest recipient of Marshall aid for having the most need along with France only slightly behind. Being used as you say for maintaining world power status, and into the general treasury fund. We spent less on infrastructure during Marshall aid than without! They pissed that away just like was done with all oil revenues.

Considering the vast majority of oil revenues went on empty tax cuts and benefit spending through Tory created recessions, I'm not sure we'd have noticed the difference. 1 or 2p off income tax barely registers. I know I noticed none of Lawson's tiny bribes. At all. :p

The politicians would not, and should not be managing it being better served as some sort of apolitical hands off trust. I don't think politicians manage Norway's fund. Now there is little doubt that it would not have survived the privatisation and asset stripping of the eighties on unscathed, but, like the NHS there's no reason to suppose it would have been destroyed. The Tories debated but chose not to re-privatise the NHS in 51. Thatcher had a selection of industries that were felt were beyond the pale that were subsequently privatised by later administrations. Created in 75 might have been a bit late for achieving adequate perception in the public consciousness so who knows.

Still, it remains one of the very many great missed British opportunities that could easily have been a couple of trillion or more by now. 15 years of additional contributions and growth. There's many nations have sovereign wealth funds now, we easily could have too.
The OP was correct. Yes TLS inspection exists, but requires a special CA certificate installed on the device. Yes, state actors have compromised CA's. Yes yes yes it's all possible and does happen. No, you're not being MITM'ed when you connect to a restaurant wifi.

If everything needs to be qualified to the millionth degree, with every caveat laid out and explained, we won't have time to discuss interesting things. The OPs comment is correct general advice.
Not at all, since the DNS traffic to 1.1.1.1 is still unencrypted and unauthenticated (unless you're using DNSCrypt or similar, or the domain you're looking up uses DNSSEC and you're using a validating resolver).
Once we colonize mars, I’d bet that we would have 2 planets with homeless people. I hope I’m wrong though.
Yes, I do. Especially when you start considering multiline examples with flow control. There are probably a couple of factors at play:

1. Familiarity. Like (presumably) most programmers, I'm familiar with languages in the C syntax family. Of course you can protest that this is a subjective criteria, but little good that will do you as you try to convince your colleagues to adopt (what they perceive to be) your pointlessly cryptic language for the next project.

2. Visual structure is important and while OCaml's minimalism makes for elegant parser algorithms, it works against human psychology (or so I strongly suspect).

Look, I want to like OCaml/SML. I think the type system is a step in the right direction, but the type system is just gravy and the practical concerns--the fundamentals--are neglected (as much as you may protest to the contrary).
There are a number of reasons people are kept in hospital and their ability to exercise may or may not factor into this.

I spent 10 weeks as an inpatient on 6* daily IV antibiotics (which would have been impossible to do at home) to treat a serious infection in the bone in my foot. On some of my better days I managed to cover nearly 10 miles on crutches or in a wheelchair. Being able to use a gym to work out would have been better and substantially safer all round.

On the flipside, it's amazing how many doors one can get through using nothing but a lollypop-stick from the ice-cream machine in reception or a pair of crutches to open gates from the other side. And technically the "no public access" signs don't apply because you're not public, you're an in-patient at that point... but there has to be better ways of staying fit and sane that would apply to the other 99.9% of patients.

the fix cost is too high for non wealthy people to do it, you need a few thousands of dollars in layers, accounting, various registrations, etc.
First, I suggest doing this in private/incognito mode.

Second, the "survey" misses the most important distinction: investment income vs earned income. Or, more directly: wealth.

A family making (say) $300k from only wages is in a VERY different situation than the same family making that income from investments.
Fun fact: I was featured on cover of Johnny's Selected Seeds in 1996 or 1997 (98 catalog) (with Bright Lights Swiss Chard).

(I usually prefer not to reveal myself particularly with image on the net but it was too much to pass up. Besides I'm older and don't look like that now. I haven't grown commercial produce in 20+ years because it's not as romantic as it looks and is a lot of work and not that much profit. But it was really fun for a few years).
> No, they are not. They will never be. They might be secure, but not completely...

You are right in that nothing is ever "completely" secure.

But we take risks ALL THE TIME. In a primitive sense, risk assessment can be thought of as a product...

risk = severity_of_outcome x probability_of_occurence

Just how risky is it to get on a public wifi? What could happen? What does happen? Are there "safe" things you can do on a public wifi? Are we talking about giving up treasure to casual script-kiddies? Or is it only nation-state-actors that we need to worry about, or maybe jealous-obsessive hacker boyfriends? What can happen if I just leave wifi enabled on my phone? What can happen if I connect and do nothing? What are the exploits?

A lot of these things are unclear-- even for "experts" on HN.

In the absence of actual credible stories about the bad things that happen on public wifi, people will DISMISS the risk. Some may choose a more paranoid approach and never use public wifi, but I think that's just about as unreasonable as the opposite.
How many days in a week? Thread to remember
SSLStrip does not work for iphone or android apps since HTTPS is explicit.

SSLStrip also does not work for major social networks or financial institutions that implement HTTPS Strict Transfer Policy, which is basically all of them.

The only way you can use SSLStrip nowadays is if you have BofA/whatever phishing links on your wifi portal's home page, which is a pretty hard sell phishing wise.
Corporate TLS Inspection products rely on each user (or the system administrators) installing the MITM certificate on all corporate systems. Unless users are also installing 'public' root certificates, this is a non-issue. And if users are installing bad root certificates, then a fully closed wifi network will not be very good protection either way.

Now, nation states, which may be able to obtain valid PKI certificates for MITM purposes, are a whole other level of adversary. Still, again, anyone who can do that will probably not be deterred by you using a WPA-PSK2 protected Wi-Fi AP.

So, overall, I don't see what kind of increased security risk you would be exposing yourself to by using public wifi networks.
I use an android phone, I'd buy an apple phone in a heartbeat if it didn't cost as much. They just keep raising the price too, which is ridiculous.

I get its a premium product, but they've priced themselves out of so many peoples budgets at this point I think.
Great that they've been able to grow their services revenue, but a huge percent of that is driven by iPhone owners subscribing to things.

Headline is misleading at best, if the iPhone were to suddenly lose their market to Android phones, most of that subscription revenue would dry up too.

Music and Arcade I'd expect are vastly phone-based. TV might have the Apple TV as a significant subscriber base, and Music admittedly has an android client, but I'd be shocked if iPhone users weren't the majority of all of those subscriptions.
Here's an idea for a model:

Use logarithmic decay of speed down to the rate limit, the first bit of browsing is a fast preview. As you continue browsing a pop up explains that you're being rate limited and that you can pay if you wish to resume unlimited browsing speed.
...and if a current iPhone owner switches to an Android device, I doubt they'll stick around Apple services! Therefore, the iPhone is still cornerstone to Apple's growth, as it enables it.

Your threat model should be localized. There are plenty of places where the threat of stabbing is low, and should not occupy your mind. There are plenty of places where the threat of stabbing is high, and you should be aware of your surroundings.

Likewise, your threat of being preyed upon on an open AP is dependent on what you're doing on that AP. Surfing HN? Who cares. But if I'm checking my bank account balance or touching sensitive info, I'm absolutely going to fire up a vpn first.

That is essentially the problem to those of us who oppose it.

When you say "criminals" you are probably thinking of strictly people who harm others, but the state is thinking of anybody who breaks its laws. Currently many of those laws exist solely to keep certain groups in power, and there is no guarantee it won't get even worse in the future.

Human law enforcement ensures layers of decisionmakers who are at least theoretically capable of empathy, and limited manpower makes them prioritize the worst or most flagrant crimes. Automated law enforcement gives a smaller group of people horrifyingly granular levels of control over all of society.

No, attacker can just MITM your DNS traffic and synthesise lots of typosquats of their own. They can't do the actual bigbank.com or facebook.com domains thanks to various protections like HSTS, but typos are unlikely to have HSTS preload etc, and they can have vast numbers of them at basically zero cost.
Note that “dendron” is usually translated to English as “tree” but of course that's a pretty weak argument—there's no requirement that words in different languages denote precisely coextensive categories.
