Japanese manufacturers have found a good balance between simplicity and modern tech (see Mazda, Suzuki).

German cars tend to be over-engineered; lots of modern tech in the vehicle + manufacturing, whereas American cars tend to be quite the opposite.
That's surprising considering that car has the worst transmission in car history. Unless the SFE is the one with a stick.
Where do I even start. feeding teams false release dates is the worst management idea I've ever heard, it's deliberately sabotaging your own chances of success.

On the other hand, expecting that more people having a say very early on if something is feasible will actually lead to better products, is approximately the second worst management idea ever. Towards the end of the product development life-cycle yes, there is an argument for that because more people can try out use cases and situations that are hard to anticipate. But early on, the wisdom of the crowd is your enemy. If large numbers of people thought something was a good idea, everybody would be doing it. Innovations always orriginate from individuals or very small teams.

Consensus will lead you to mediocrity. Innovation by its very nature requires that you must do something unusual and likely dismissed by the consensus. It's not that being different is better by itself, but being the same can't be better by definition.
Every Macbook/Mac Pro should come with a free developer account that remains active as long as the purchaser of the machine is using the laptop. Doing so would further distinguish “pro” from non-pro machines, would make notarization less like an annual tax, and would thus encourage rather than discourage such malware-free certifications.

That said, I agree with the article’s author that devs should be free to distribute whatever they want without warnings and without having to update annually. Not every piece of software gets maintained but it can still be useful, especially for artistic works. Let the App Store be the place where Apple certifies safety and leave the rest to the user.

I’m curious how much income really matters for credit decisions since I thought it was typically self-reported and not verified (although perhaps they also use third party non-verified sources to increase confidence), but to the extent it is a factor, I wouldn’t give much weight to living in a community property state either:

1. You can effectively opt out of community property rules via a pre-nup.

2. You can move states to a non-CP state.

Those are two very hard things to control against, so it makes sense to just discount them.

If that is what’s going on here, it’s not really gender-biased in my mind; especially in today’s world, an increasing number of women earn more than their male counterparts, so it’s just biased towards those with high income.
Message history wouldn't use that; it uses headers (metadata) like 'In-Reply-To:' and 'References:', which are in… well, I was going to say RFC 822, but it turns out they go back to RFC 724 from 1977.

A MIME digest would be used for the case that you want to provide someone a bunch of messages they don't already have. In that case, this brings up another reason this is superior to including the thing as text: it preserves all the threading and other metadata.
Every suburb I've been in has a big box grocery store with a large selection of fresh produce. If you want something specific you might need to go to a specialty store, but there are plenty of vegetables where people buy groceries. You won't find them at gas stations, but nobody buys groceries at gas stations.

I agree, american cars have a driving quality to them that other cars do not. I drive Mazda (higher resale value) I wish I could "afford" american ("afford" in the sense of not minding a lower resale value).

The engine is usually smooth and powerful, cabin comfort, the ride very quiet, it sort of glides with you.

I don't really disagree with the possibility that Apple is working on AR in the way you describe. I guess the point I was trying to make — as a longtime believer in Apple's vision with the Macbook Pro/iPhones/Watch/Airpods to prove it — is that they didn't use to make products from a firehose of internal projects. They had a clear vision for the future and shipped it. Not all of them succeeded (Newton) but during the Jobs era they were right more than not.

This isn't to say that having a tournament of approaches isn't a viable way to figure out a new product. But it speaks to a different, less visionary approach.
I think I'm more bullish on Krita's future than you are.

Regardless, we're kind of arguing past each other. If Krita abandons Mac and no one else does, then Mac users won't care. If a bunch of indie games abandon Mac, and then Krita does, and then something like Audacity or Blender does, and then it starts to spiral from there where Open Source and hobby developers en-large decide this crap just isn't worth putting up with for a project they release for free, then users will care.

It seems your main objection is just that you don't think that's likely. My assertion is, "Apple won't court developers until they start losing apps." Your assertion is, "Apple is not going to start losing apps." I don't see those two claims as being incompatible, and I don't think your assertion is worth arguing about given that we can just wait a year or two and see what happens.

> do you think it will hurt Krita more, or Apple, or users?

My broader assertion here is that we're in a narrow period where most people aren't using Mac computers, even for creative work -- so developers have a lot more freedom to make these decisions. I don't know the stats for Krita, but it wouldn't surprise me if the number of Mac users was small. I know that as a game developer and Open Source developer, I'm not going out of my way to support Mac. It wouldn't be worthwhile.

In terms of user benefit, I don't feel like Open Source developers have a burden to develop for platforms that are inconvenient. If Mac users really want an Open Source app to support their platform, any one of them can fork the code and pay the notarization fee themselves.

Other Open Source developers have different approaches and opinions on that front. Some of them are a lot more charitable than me.
Strong property rights require a large regulatory apparatus for their enforcement, regardless of how those rights are allocated. It's not about the legal framework.
DHH posted about this exact thing today. Basically: who cares? It has the Apple logo on it. Apple says: "It was created by Apple, not a bank."

That all seems pretty reasonable to me, and darn well should be included when "test[ing] invoicing":

- You surely want to make sure invoice creation depends on a valid billing address at the very least, right? If that breaks, you're gonna have a lot of rather irate AR clerks.

- You surely want to make sure the Contact is aware of the new invoice on the order, right? In fact, that might very well be part of the Contact's performance metrics, so if that breaks, you're gonna have a lot of rather irate sales/support reps (whatever "Contact" means in this context).

- You surely want to make sure your invoices are against valid items, right? And you surely want to make sure that expected revenue correctly ties back to an inventory movement, which in turn ties back to an inventory receipt, which in turn ties back to a paid invoice to a vendor, right? If that chain breaks, you're gonna have a lot of rather irate accountants and financial auditors.

- You surely want to make sure you're getting the right sales tax calculations, right? If that breaks, you're gonna have a lot of rather irate accountants, financial auditors, and tax collectors.

- You surely want to make sure the Sales Person and Sales Office both get credit for the invoice, right? If that breaks, you're gonna have a lot of rather irate sales reps and managers thereof.

So... no, I ain't exactly getting your point, lol. If you're changing invoicing, then all of the dependencies and dependents of invoicing ought to be tested.

But more to my point:

"very grateful for tools like tsqlt that make unit testing possible"

Unit testing != integration testing. If you're unit testing, then sure, turn off foreign keys and practice your quick draw while you cowboy it up. If you're integration testing, then that inherently means testing the whole system as a whole; what you call "cumbersome" I call "the bare minimum of comprehensiveness".

"I’ve easily used more than a full day just to get enough data in a naked system to make just the simplest test."

That's usually pretty easy to script, even with foreign key constraints. It might take you a day, but future days should be able to call upon that same script, saving you quite a bit of time :)

On the subject of the dangers of deepfakes, the most recent episode of The Blacklist addressed deepfakes in a storyline I found quite interesting.

Basically (spoilers ahead), this researcher creates a sentient AI and the AI promptly decides that sentient AI is a danger to humanity and tries to kill a few of the top AI researchers. Ok, kinda unrealistic.

The more realistic part? To get one of the AI researchers killed, a deepfake video is created of that researcher saying something along the lines of "over the years at X corp I've seen the worst of humanity, too much evil, it's time to end it all" accompanied by him strapping on a bomb vest. The video is released and everyone freaks out. He doesn't notice, goes to work, gets surrounded by cops while holding a small black device (his phone), and the police shoot and kill him thinking it's a detonator.

I'd always considered deepfakes in the context of making false political statements which could eventually be disproved. Worst case, a bunch of people think the wrong thing for a while. This use case of forcing rapid response without time for validation or refutal is quite a bit scarier and one I personally hadn't considered before.

Pardon my non-HN tone but...remind me again how this would have prevented 9/11; is useful against cyber-warfare; or can prevent the public's beliefs and decision-making from being influenced by a fistful of dollars and some well-placed digital ads.

We keep spending more and more, and are being outsmarted with less and less. Three-quarters of a trillion dollar (i.e., the USA's DOD budget) is a significant amount of money.

Then what's the problem? That trust should be worth the $100. The message from Apple doesn't say that it's untrustworthy just that it's not trusted by Apple. If users didn't trust Apple, that wouldn't make a difference.

If it's important to you for users to trust your app, then there are ways to do that. One of those ways is paying the $100. There are other ways outside of that, though.

If police doesn't do anything, no one else CAN because the same laws comes back and bite you in the ass.

Seen it all before. In practice, this doesn't work. You end up way too dependent on a superstar who is bound to burn out, and will take the whole team down with him.

Can you compare Tesla to a manufacturer who innovates very little (Toyota or Honda) and simply churns out the same internal combustion engine 10 million times a year? I don't think so.

All depends on what you're optimizing for. I can't get an EV from Toyota or Honda (at least not one that competes with our S and X), so I deal with some fit and finish and reliability issues. Powertrain has been rock solid. Charging network has been rock solid (having driven coast to coast in the US in both of our Teslas).

13 Mind-Blowing Things AI Can Already Do Today

> The bottleneck for GPU today is the amount of memory on board and not compute. Especially with large size models

This is somewhat true, but not at clear cut as you make it seem. Most deep learning training I've been part of is realistically bottlenecked by compute. Increased memory usage is a way to improve the compute efficiency (less time moving between GPU and CPU). I haven't worked hands-on with the recent big NLP models so I could be mistaken in that domain, but there is a lot of evidence that model parallelism and hybrid parallelism work (technically - financially is less clear) so the memory limits of a single GPU/ASIC are less important than previously.

One day I hope to see metaoptimization - for example particle swarm optimization - used to parallelize training so it is truly horizontally scalable, but right now the cost/hardware availability is a blocker.

Fairings cost upwards of $5M per launch. The technology for the boat basically consists of some arms (with shock absorbers) welded to the deck and a big net strung between them. The boat itself is chartered, not owned by SpaceX as far as I know. The only real tech development is in the parachute systems for the fairings, which also aren't particularly advanced.

I can't imagine positive ROI requiring more than 4 or 5 recoveries. Personally, I'm kind of disappointed they didn't go with a skyhook concept, but getting that system to work with something the size and drag of a half-fairing would probably be a nightmare.
You can def be typing while your startup dies. Maybe it's the exception not the rule though.

My last startup was firing on all cylinders, with addicted early adopters, and our team literally shipped features the last day we could pay them because they loved the project and team so much. It didn't matter much to the VCs who declined to invest further. If you can't pay your people, they can't eat, and they can't work on the startup any further. So if you're not profitable, you're always subject to investor sentiment and calculus to survive, and that can often be a totally separate question of if you still have the drive to push further and continue to reply to emails.

In those scenarios where you have investors, you can't just go into 'hibernation mode' and get the founders back on the ramen lifestyle to keep going if you are hitting the trough, because on the way down you will be forced to sell or liquidate all the existing IP and other assets to help existing investors and debtholders recoup their losses. So you're left with nothing but the idea, and insofar as you want to continue to pursue similar ideas you run the risk of getting sued since you've sold the IP.

So, its certainly possible for the market to 'correct' you out of existence, even if you have the deepest will to keep going and are willing to sacrifice almost anything to do so. The best thing you can do at this point is to move on and try to leverage what you've learned or the networks you've built into something you're similarly interested in.
