"big-splash release cycle is fundamentally breaking engineering"

I strongly prefer Apple ship functionality incrementally. No more big bang.

Especially be more cautious with new kits (core libraries). Just one or two end user facing features on some fraction of hardware. Then expand over time.

With Apple's installed base, it's an engineering marvel there's so little drama. But I want no drama, which means waiting a bit longer. Which is fine.

This. A “transparent” A-pillar (the bit separating your windshield from driver’s side window) would be a good start, and if it worked well, it’s a feature I’d pay extra for.
I should note that most developers here really do care, and that’s probably why products can be released in the first place. You have to have really dedicated people willing to cut through the organizational bullshit to get things done.

All of the engineers I’ve met here are smart and innovative. Only if we could organize, things would be much better.
Yes, it’s a dark chocolate version. You can often find them in Japanese/Asian supermarkets if there is one near you. They’re pretty good.

Hardly. You can call it Open Firmware(TM), not open firmware.
As a parent, it is in my experience much safer to be able to flip the rear view mirror into "night mode" and have a view of what the kids are arguing about than to have to turn back even momentarily to interact with them.

I literally just told a security guard at the PyCon in Berlin to go f* themselves as a direct result of bullying I experienced at boarding school in the '70s.

It took 2 years of therapy to make that connection, though.
The likelyhood is being caught may be the metric that determines the effectiveness of a deterrent over the severity of the punishment, but being caught implies that there is at least some negative consequence.

So in order to be a deterrent there must be punishment. Increasing the severity will do little to increase the effectiveness, but increasing the likelyhood of getting caught will.

Works with coreboot though somehow. AGESA prevents it as far as I know, since it does some stuff that coreboot has to be doing. I'm not that familiar with details, may be some coreboot experts can comment.
So to accelerate this, do I need an SSD or a GPU or a DBA?

You’re stretching my thinking — thanks for that. It can be hard to delineate the difference between the properties of reality itself and a knowledge structure, built by people, that undeniably corresponds very closely to reality and is internally consistent — the two tests for truth.

I think we can both agree that reality (the physical universe) is well-ordered, self-consistent, and eminently logical in its operation. (Side note: my own belief is that it exhibits these qualities because it reflects the character of its Creator.)

And yes, it obeys certain concepts with absolute constancy - which we have worked to discover and which our mathematical language describes.

But I still maintain that the math and physics knowledge we have is at best limited and at worst an incomplete set of poor approximations. Because they cannot (and I maintain they won’t ever) account for everything we observe, or answer every question we have about the universe, and because its axioms have led to all sorts of abstract structures that have no relation at all to anything ever observed, I still think it’s fair to call math “invented”.

That being said, the real concepts we attempt to grasp in what we observe of the universe are clearly vastly superior to our comparatively small efforts to understand and model them.

Huh? The lack of some rights for LGB+ people under current law does not prevent Amazon from employing them. In fact, that lack of rights probably actually makes it easier for Amazon to employ them by easily extending benefits beyond what are required. Once those rights are legally granted, all employers will have to extend them, reducing Amazon's advantage.

They are doing something about it. It takes government to establish regulatory frameworks, so they are lobbying for that.

No one counterfeits Kindles on Amazon because no one but Amazon is allowed to sell Kindles on Amazon. The lack of Kindle counterfeits there gives no useful information about the difficulty of keeping counterfeits out of markets that allow multiple sellers for a given product.
Middle management in most corporations proves you wrong. Knowing what you say is for lower levels, the ones that they rule over by whim. Leadership in those projects rarely knows things.
That's the one I meant, thanks for your effort!

Great read! Thanks for sharing. Highly encourage anyone who is on the fence about reading the whole thing to go for it.

Steve, and others like him, do make me wonder. On the one hand, I work four days a week, never stay late at work, and live a good, steady life. But on the other hand, I see these super-stars, these drive-people-to-the-edge, sleep-on-shop-floor types, and see how much change and drive they create, it makes me start to think that maybe I should work _much_ harder. But then again, I quite like all this time I have to think on things. And of course, we don't get all the details about how this style of work _really_ affects home life; I'm sure we'd have much less respect for these super-stars if we knew they _all_ had screwed up lives away from work.
The sentence that you quoted cites three specific policies that this specific administration enacted ([1], [2], [3]). Trump campaigned on making two of these changes, explicitly juxtaposing them to what he considered to be the unacceptable Obama-led status quo. It is entirely rational for someone to "blame" an administration for the policy changes that they unilaterally enact. It's weird for you to be so defensive about this attribution, since you seem to agree with the changes.

It is not "the same crap" because you have decided that it is all on a spectrum of "bad things that happen to people I don't care about." That's not how reality works.

TL;DR: Because it reports errors in computer terms, not in English. Which, to me, is a totally bogus reason for labeling something "the only true computer language". Or, if you grant the logic of the claim, then to me the claim is about something completely uninteresting.

I guess if you think people have an inalienable right to cross whatever national border they want, then ICE is perpetuating crimes against humanity. If you believe otherwise (which I think is the generally accepted reasonable stance), then ICE is engaged in the difficult task of dealing with an influx of illegal border crossers whose identity and nationality is not known, with a subset of those illegal border crossers being children for whom it is not easy or straightforward to determine their legal guardians. To most people, that is not at all comparable to any of the abhorrent crimes you mentioned.

So why even mention them?
> The more "Apple" solution would be to just have sensible defaults (deny) and only prompt the user when the app in question wants to access that specific item (the way iOS implements it).

This is how it works; it’s just that macOS applications are not used to delaying authorization prompts to the appropriate time so they ask for it on startup.
In that case I'm a bit confused where the processed line ends - is cooling and letting a piece of meat hang 14 days processing then? Where does processing begin and "food preparation" end?
Nextdoor I think was an attempt at that, but it turned out that its mostly a place to talk about fears and potential problems and strangers in the neighborhood rather than bringing anyone together, for anything other than trading stuff.

I think its one of the downsides of the multiculturalism is that the common denominator in terms of culture is smaller - becoming more frequently that you just straight up don't talk to neighbors because you don't trust their motives or beliefs. As a 30-something fairly liberal queer person, I'll have only very light and shallow conversations with my elderly neighbors, because I know they're in their house with Fox News on all day, and would vote for people who'd take away my rights any day. That doesn't mean I don't help them load heavy groceries out of their cars, or offer to help with something every once in a while, but there's this big barrier of culture and especially what is "acceptable" between us.

Costs are already roughly the same for side mirrors and cameras. It's almost all upside to replace side mirrors with cameras at this point.
You may be also interested in my hobby project, a WIP tool for writing Android apps in Nim, completely without Java and/or Android Studio: https://forum.nim-lang.org/t/4840. I'm slowly pushing it further since the initial PoC announcement above, but it's not yet there for a second phase of loud publicity. Still, you may like to watch for releases on GitHub. As you can see from this project, I'm also desperate to avoid Java or C++... ;)

I spent about $400 to replace a side-view mirror that had stopped working, it was no longer adjustable.

The rear-view camera on our car is 3 years old and hasn't broken yet, but it took 7 years for the side mirror to stop working on the other car, so I guess time will tell, but the camera seems much simpler (and the camera doesn't need to stick out from the car like a traditional mirror so should be less prone to accidental breakage)
> We wouldn't find this acceptable with eBooks

You sure about that? I mean yeah, "we" as in at least you and I, but the general public... I still enjoy https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/right-to-read.en.html as prophetic fiction and occasionally remember that around 10 years ago Amazon in reality remotely deleted copies of Orwell's 1984 from kindle devices when Amazon learned that version of the book was put on their kindle store without authorization. (But at least on the issue here Amazon does better, it's not hard to load your own mobis or convert things to mobi format. I suspect the kindle would still be very popular without such ease though.)
> border agents demand you go through the above process and log in to the VPN and then remote in to your own laptop

empty laptop or no, that brings up a general issue - border agent asks you to VPN into your corp network and to give them access into it (which beside a slew of corporate policies may also violate a bunch of laws like GDPR, HIPAA, SOX, EPA Clean Water and PCI compliance, etc - IANAL, so who knows what laws can be violated, all those corporate compliance and business conducts emails are so scary). Me being a little guy doing as i told/ordered to by the ones with authority, I'd just call corp IT security, some bozo high up the chain, and let them do their job - sort it out and make the decision. Sucks though for small companies without that fat and important corp IT security and all those C[compliance|information|customer privacy|security|sustainability|etc.]Os around.
I radically improved my home wifi by installing UniFi kit. It’s a huge step up to have multiple high quality APs distributed throughout the house rather than just one AP trying to blast ever higher power. It also means that I can use much more of the available spectrum and there’s far less interference. Enterprise-class wifi is just so much better than the stuff aimed at consumers (especially the gamer market like the nighthawk router series).

Edit:

For the most part though when I speak to people who aren’t your typical HN crowd, they complain about slow WiFi when they mean that their internet is slow. The WiFi is usually way faster than their internet connection so it doesn’t really matter at all. The other big factor is latency, and basically nothing in a home network is adding an appreciable amount of latency to their connection. It’s only when you are dealing with FTTP that things like good WiFi tend to matter.
I implemented OF over 15 years ago, and even back then the OF trademark had lapsed. Just tried again and I can't seem to find it.

This is one of those safety features with redundancy on mind that we could actually double down on it. Instead of replacing side mirrors with cameras how about we have cameras embedded in each mirror, let's say infrared/normal and night-vision so you could chose which camera to look at on screen or outside at the mirror for best assessment of your surroundings.
Seems like it would be trivial to make a web based version, this app doesn't need an app store.

Sounds similar to a cult.
Not all popular apps are on the App Store.
They're taking a stand on things they have little to no control over. This way they can signal their virtue to us, but not actually have to take action. 100,000 electric vans is easy for Amazon, they can just throw money at the problem. As far as regulations are concerned at this point any regulations, like stronger penalties for counterfeiters, only help to entrench Amazon's positions. Amazon can definitely afford more regulations, however, this makes it much harder for smaller businesses to grow. This is very much like how Facebook is giving lip service to privacy these days. Facebook already has all the data, so by pressuring the government into making privacy laws they are further entrenching their positions by making it harder for new entrants into the market.
And? (TM) is used to denote unregistered trademarks, as opposed to (R) for registered trademarks.

Which is in any case irrelevant. Open Firmware != open firmware.
Just showing off my project of the last couple of months!

Pillion maps motorcycle parking all over the world, and I'm looking to extend it to cover anything useful for bikers - garages, bike meets, etc.

Currently a lot of the data is pulled from OSM, while the rest is submitted by users. I'm looking to give data back to OSM as soon as I can figure out a nice way to do so

Anyway, I'd love to hear what you think!

That's my understanding. But the collapsing bubbles are next to the cartilage I believe, and it seems to me should therefore be causing cavitation erosion. When cavitation erodes a boat's propeller, the cavitation is occurring in the water next to the propeller, not in the propeller itself.

Ask HN: What should I be more cautioned in growth stage
Early revenues and improving traction

Firstly, I want to thank HN platform and upvoted users(1 from my fake account) on couple of my posts.

It's the 45th day since I launched (with a post on 08/26/19) https://extracttable.com service, and I just
achieved all the milestones (may be small to you - but I wanted to stay motivated, as this is the 5th service I released in the past 4 years (minus 1.5 years of M.S)).

- 1K web visits = today (45d)
- 50 Developer Sign-ups = 9/27 (32d)
- 2K API hits - 9/13 (18d)
- 1 Paid client - 9/8 (13d)

Now, I'm here to ask for opinions on - What should I be cautioned more about at this point of time.

Couple of Things I already FEEL are

1. Payment Gateway Integration - All 21 payments, till date, were through manually generated PayPal invoices
2. User Registration - Increased free trail signup abuses because of there is no check if already registered

Punishing kids is not answer on itself either. For one, it does not deal with victim at all.

In one school I have seen, they had problem with bullying in a class. What they did were regular meet ups of whole class with psychologist and year long programs about communication.

Kids were taught how to express what they feel (what and who makes them angry), were taught to listen to other kids, were taught to care about each others feelings, were taught what is big deal and what is not big deal.

Slowly over time, situation got better. The point is, solution was not punishment nor seeking who is guilty. It was working with all the kids, bullies, victims, bystanders and teaching them new behavioral patterns. Repeatedly saying the same things, reinforcing same values, playing similar games etc.
It absolutely isn't the individual employee developers job or responsibility to try to fix corporate culture. Almost anyone on here or reading this is a line worker developer and trying to take on the job responsibilities of C level staff is setting yourself up for disappointment and failure.

Any company larger than a few dozen people is entrenched - there will be a hierarchy and the top will dictate the order of things. If they are paying you to write pointless software then you are either content with the paycheck and probably a lot of free time at work if nothing really matters or can go somewhere else to find meaningful work.

But seriously, the larger the company the less you should ever consider thinking yourself as some engineering talent can change the system. You change the system in those circumstances by realizing the failure, networking with your peers, and starting your own company to do it better. Assuming you didn't sign a deal with the devil by noncompeting your way into being stuck. You were hired to write code, not fix corporate culture. Largely because most large corporations have layers of management dedicated to insuring it is not fixed.

I am arguing that pointing to the fact that the owners of right wing publications are very wealthy is not evidence that somehow consent was manufactured for Brexit, since the owners of left wing publications are also very wealthy. Owners of large businesses are usually very wealthy. Doubly so with publishing businesses, which are often unprofitable, and, thus, require a wealthy benefactor to keep operating.

And pointing to fact that Brexit was a non-issue a few years before hand is also irrelevant. There are a myriad of political issues being hashed out now that weren't on anybody's radar a few years ago. This is a normal part of how media and popular culture work.
