* In app library, clear and upfront expectations of what permissions each app uses (as well as an explanation for each permission in the app creator's own words).

* In app library, ability to filter apps by permissions required

...... Specifically, I would want to be able to blacklist permission sets. Eg, search for Keyboard apps, but exclude any apps that require access to my contacts.

* Ability to pay for apps directly through those apps rather than having to go through the smartphone's software author.

...... Totally fine with the software having a default payment option in case I don't want to entrust a certain app with my payment info.

* An interface that lets me see logs of which URLs each app hits and what data it sent.

* An interface that lets me see which servers are sending data to my apps and what data is included.

"App Library" here representing the same sort of app as the Play Store, but looking to disassociate from the term "Store", as that model is not necessary.

Yea I was wondering that too.

> ...normal farming practices that dump chemicals on nature just to get better yield. Regular farming practices(using pesticides and herbicides) ...

Organic farming absolutely uses pesticides and herbicides. In fact they often must use more of it and at greater frequency than conventional farming methods because the organic variants are inferior. This also requires more frequent use of heavy farming machinery for the application process.

> Well great, let's stay on this path while all our insects and birds die, but at least global warming is still on the rise.../s

Well, no, there are MANY people working toward improving the "status quo" but are often derided or dismissed when they begin talking about advances in pesticides, herbicides, and GMOs. Those are all dirty words in the minds of a few, loud special interests. Those special interests then hock their pseudo-science missives to conscience-minded, consuming society and, before you know it, you have a sizable group of people convinced that the right way to go for a more healthy, sustainable planet is "organic" agriculture.

That's the damn tragedy of it all. Decent, well-meaning people, genuinely concerned for their -- and others' -- health, aggressively pursuing the path that leads them further from their ideal.

There is not a lot of sense of community in most companies these days, its often each person for itself.

Especially in IT, people stay for a couple of years and then leave or get laid off, there is no employment for life anymore.

You can run the business from a shared workspace, it's not an issue. And even hire a couple of people to help you out since the salaries there are relatively affordable, and build your own community then.

You don't have to go to an office working for someone else, that is optional. Nothing wrong with it, it's just not the only choice.

> The increased legal availability of cannabis has led to a common misconception that it is a safe natural remedy for, among others, pregnancy-related ailments such as morning sickness.

Cannabis has been widely recognized among stoners as a natural miracle cure for everything from hangovers to stage IV cancer, and because it is produced by "nature" it is thought to be superior to "chemicals" found in ordinary pharmaceuticals.

If anything, legalizing cannabis will increase the visibility of studies like this and give us a clearer picture of its benefits and drawbacks.

It's not really similar to hyper-threading. You still just had one thread of execution, you just didn't have the overhead of pushing CPU state to working memory (RAM) on context switch. Hence the CPU could switch contexts on every instruction instead of much more rarely like modern multitasking OSes tend to do.

Reading this I was reminded of the shadow register set on Z80. This CPU has two "special register groups" that could be switched by a single 4-cycle opcode. As far as I remember, the original idea was to have "main" and "interrupt" CPU contexts without the overhead of pushing/poping the stack (which could cost tens of cycles). From what I've seen however, people were mostly ignoring that feature in practice, or using it for various nasty hacks when they ran out of CPU registers.

> 3. I searched for the same application clicked GET again and then it turned into a cloud icon. Clicking the cloud icon seemed to do absolutely nothing. At this point I asked my wife who told me I had already downloaded the app to my account and now I need to download it to my machine. EDIT: I just remembered I was seriously confused at this point. I clicked the cloud icon several times and given there was zero feedback I opened both Launchpad and the Applications directory in case it magically already installed.

I did this exact same thing last week after upgrading to Catalina and getting the 1-2 app store apps I needed. I kept getting the cloud, I have no idea what the cloud means but it wasn't the down facing arrow I usually saw. So I kept clicking it. Turns out it HAD installed the app but never gave me an Open button. I stay far away from the app store if I can.

Piracy is not always piracy, you are allowed to circumvent copy protection for use of items you already own, but under the DMCA and according to common sense. This is probably going to become more important as time goes on.
The same way my Gentoo and Void Linux boxes are .. except touch interfaces of search and install (like F-Droid) instead of emerge/xbps-install/apt-get/yum, etc. F-Droid also allows 3rd party repositories, just like other Linux package managers (and unlike Google/Apple/Microsoft).

I guess you could also have non-free repos and some kind of payment API (does Ubuntu/Snap do this?) but I really want to see if I can just write apps for the gaps I find when trying to use a PureOS or KDE Plasma device.

edit: see some comments on permissions. Honestly I've not looked into this space very much. I assume there might need to be some cgroup isolation that can be used to lock off hardware and filesystems, similar to containers (not sure if Snap/Flatpak use cgroups).

I suppose malicious code could get in and spy on you, but we've got the same concerns on Linux desktops and official package repos. I don't know exactly ... there's a lot to think about there.
I edited my post and added the last part because it was being down voted. You're not always the first to read something.

There's nothing condescending in my post, if you read it that way then it is a reflection of you and your perceptions.

It's a very simple point. You can point at others and whine that why do they have such staunch supporters, because all you can to is teardown, or you view as an incentive to motivate getting everyone more involved and passionate about defending all of the other freedoms with the same tenacity.

It's clear you fall in to the teardown ideology.

Is there a list of failed startups somewhere?
This question came about because I just moved to the Bay Area and am looking for cheap office furniture. I know that when startups fail, they often just abandon their furniture or sell it for dirt cheap.

However, I don't know how to find recently failed startups. I feel like this sort of list would be valuable for tons of reasons even beyond just looting for furniture. Any ideas?
Looks they are no longer made, or are they?
Curious: How effective would it be to separate only the app store from Google/Apple, when it comes to this rating problem? Perhaps not even the infrastructure --- I'd imagine even just having an independent group of reviewers / rule enforcers would make the situation much less absurd?

I'm with OmniSci, and it's a good point. The relationship between NVIDIA and OmniSci remains strong and strategic. We've always talked about our focus of running the fastest software on the fastest hardware, and in fact the platform has always taken advantage of both GPUs and CPUs. Adding Intel as a partner and offering a focused edition for CPUs expands the platform to an even larger community of developers and data analysts. So this is additive, it doesn't take away from our work with NVIDIA.
What does this mean in plain terms?
Yeah this guy gets it! Thank you :)
With WSL2, the filesystem is faster than 'native' windows (as long as you stay within the ext4-formatted image), which obviates one of the big Windows irritants for developers.

The one downside of WSL from my perspective is all the small impedance mismatches, wslpath hacks, etc that result from having to work with the two filesystems. And though VS Codes's remote extension makes working on WSL entirely seamless, the situation is messier with other tools. IntelliJ, for example, has some WSL support in individual plugins, but it's patchy enough that I found running the Linux version via an X server more convenient.
I guess this isn't strictly "partisan," but it is highly political: the FBI tried to destroy Martin Luther King Jr., and even attempted to blackmail him with recordings they had taken.

That's true but the difference of course with a star player is that the hiring team can examine in detail the past performances of the player. They usually only hire if the player is competent.

The problem is that the elite quitter is usually incompetent. They are capable of learning some new things. But they are incompetent in the sense that they are incapable of seeing that the new thing is often the same as or worse than the old thing. They are incompetent in the sense that they have a low attention span and do not follow up on the things they do so they never learn from their mistakes. They often love complexity etc etc

So the hiring team cannot see these details directly. It's up to them to have competent interviewers to flush this out. But of course they are often in awe of the latest fad themselves and so on it goes.
I might be misunderstanding you or the abstract but I think the effect occurs in only in male rats. It isn't that they only tested male rats.
The Register is amusing, but this is hardly noteworthy. If, as LibreOffice suggests, this is some sort of bug or mistake, it will be resolved soon enough. The Register seems to be protesting the entire notarization requirement out of one side of its mouth, while claiming to support increased security out of the other.

Catalina apps should be notarized, which LibreOffice is committed to doing. The Register hopes for more controversy.

This is an apples to orange comparison. Time complexities are with respect to some computational model. When not specified one typically assumes it's with respect to a deterministic turing machine or something a lot like it. Te model you are describing allows for unbounded parallel execution.

> As a 12 year old me and my peers had no mobile phones and most of us went home from school alone

Again that is cherry-picking.

Yes, I walked to school alone when I was 12. Also when I was 7.

But school is a consistent, well-known location with adult supervision at the destination. The amount of maturity required for traveling to school is minimal.

Kids can do a lot more open-ended activities than walking/taking the bus to school.

The Rise of the Open – Open APIs Are Taking over the Technology Landscape
I think you've hit upon one of the most challenging aspects of mapping, which is that the real world is incredibly dynamic. And it's not just the things that we think of as dynamic (bicyclists, pedestrians, other vehicles), it's also the geometry itself (lane lines, vegetation, building construction). So this requires some form of updating (either semantic, geometric, or both). And as you pointed out this is not uniform: dense city maps can change from week-to-week, whereas rural maps require less frequent updates.
So first you need to build an on-board/offline system that can first detect these changes, then configure the pipeline so that the proper data is collected and updates can be compact and fast. As mentioned in the article, we have a git-like structure for Atlas updates which allows us to track small changes. And the fact that the Atlas is only locally consistent means that any update is contained just to the detected area.
I recently started using DokuWiki. The reason I like it is that it is actually storing the current copies of pages as .txt files, so I don't have to worry about databases failing or migrating out of the platform or anything like that. It just puts kinda a clean browsing and editing experience on top.
No, there isn't. It's as much conjecture as the thesis of the article.

You can't say the extent to which or even whether a $15 minimum wage would depress hours or benefits without an analysis of the elasticities of the supply & demand curves at Target. The article makes it sounds like such changes[1] are the inevitable consequence of any hike in wages, which is both not only strictly wrong as a matter of Econ 101 (elasticities matter) but also a notoriously contentious area of debate with substantially[2] conflicting empirical data.

[1] Presuming the characterizations are correct; they're based on 23 anecdotal employee interviews.

[2] That is, there's good, solid, empirical data (not just numbers-pulled-out-of-butt partisan retorts) for both sides. Which isn't all too surprising because, again, elasticities matter and are by their nature context dependent.

Which he knew he needed his ID for, because he had done so many times before.

The point I am making is simply that it is not so surprising to me that when things go outside of the normal process, things may go sideways when dealing with potentially hostile government agents.
To me, it seemed like a story of a father being terrorized and subjugated by his narcissistic son. He seemed pretty apologetic for getting him involved in the first place.

Where do you think he was trying to shirk responsibility? I've listened to a lot of his podcasts and that was also the only one where I couldn't understand why Joe was acting so harshly towards him. Once his son was absorbed into the cult, I don't think there's anything he could've done. Not to mention how hard it is even to get yourself out of it, as he explained in great detail.
If we consider ourselves as computational systems, I think there's a fundamental limit on our ability to understand ourselves. With an extremely accurate model of our bodies, we could simulate ourselves and see what our mental state would be like in the next moment. But that wouldn't be any use from inside of a computational system, ie as a system of thinking, because the total amount of state space needed to perform such a computation would by necessity be greater than the amount of state space we have available for thinking in any given moment. (We'd have to include the total state of what we're already thinking about plus all additional information describing our current physical state.)

This gets exacerbated in two "softer" ways: our brains are nonlinear systems, so trying to understand ourselves with just general principles can still result in significant deviations from predictions (for example, a single neuron could significantly affect our entire mental state in an un-accounted-for way). Secondly, this doesn't even try to account for the rest of the universe...

On the plus side, I think this implies some fundamental limits for any artificial intelligence...?
To be clear, a big reason behind the popularity of podcasts is that you can listen to them while doing other things - working, driving, etc. so I'm not sure long podcast episodes really dispel the idea that attention spans are diminishing.
I'm not a neuroscientist, I'm not a smoker, and I'm not a woman. The headline result seems like it could be plausible. However...

My first instinct reading the abstract is that the conclusion which finds an effect on male rats and not female rats is an unjustified subgroup analysis and likely a spurious result.

Given the sexiness of the topic (people think weed is harmless, but what if it's not), publication filters for stat. sig results, low a priori power, no adjustment for multiple comparisons, no pre-registration, and this bizarre subgroup contingent result... should we expect this to replicate?

Is there a strong theoretical basis for expecting the subgroup heterogeneity?
IMHO, it is similar with security. Everyone wants better security, but everyone freaks out if their workflows change or some extra input steps are required for more sensitive actions.

Yeah while you are correct I am not talking about that specific additive. I am talking about a gaseous system of atoms and how temperature is related in a statistical manner rather then being identified as an individual process. Maybe it cannot be identified individually. That lack of individual identification or proof against the ability of individual identification is enough to say that science in its broadest terms is vague

Eyeballer: AI-Based Screenshot Analysis Tool for Pen Testers
Buggy system implementations, unfinished API flows, apps constantly needing to ask for permission, a big break in compatibility and little to no time to properly test before the official release: it took some time, but Apple has finally reached their Vista point.

Not that this is necessarily bad (although the bugs are super annoying). Vista had to happen, and I can see why many casual users in the Apple ecosystem would prefer a simple, sandbox system for their operating system. Time will tell if this is indeed a step ahead or a problem that will be made undone in the future. It just sucks that Apple customers are dealing with their own Vista now though.

Is that different than a regular computer? To take your statement and slightly modify it:

some sort of device to set electromagnetic charges, then run an "electromagnetic algorithm" (i.e. a graph of "electromagnetic logic gates"), and finally read out the "sequence of electromagnetic bits" resulting from the algorithm.

That sounds to me like the computer that I am typing on now. Am I missing something here?
If you asked me what the "basic parts of a computer are" my first intuition is to answer with the von Neumann architecture. I would not expect the general public to have that answer, but I would expect people with CS backgrounds and the companies building the machines that ken referenced in the article to think in terms of von Neumann.
