Retro-Gaming Enthusiasts Are Getting It All Wrong (2016)
People are forgetting something. We know Google is far left and wishes to impose their leftist agenda on the world at large [0].

All of their shenanigans including censorship of search, censorship on Youtube, and now this, would make this agenda and intent abundantly clear, even if they weren't exposed on tape admitting to it.

This particular action may be aimed towards Singapore, but I am 100% confident that this is a test run for a similar action in the United States.

The 787 is the newest airframe and it's fine. The 737 is the Windows XP of the sky and there's only so much you can fix with service packs.

How about the KC-46 and 777X?
One thing I do remember about this period is that Apple's stock actually got fairly cheap compared to its earnings. Its PE got to like 12, which is fairly amazing for a tech company with the kind of barriers to competition Apple has. Investors really thought the iPhone might get undermined by Android phones in the way PCs undermined the Macintosh.

You can say this article has a lot of opinion and speculation, but I think the history of stock price shows that it is a retelling of conventional wisdom at the time and today.

The Best-Managed Companies of 2019–and How They Got That Way
It's not especially shocking that the people doing repairs are the people talking about repairability.

And you're taking it from the perspective of someone buying a new device from Apple who doesn't care about anybody else. Consider the perspective of a low income person who would otherwise buy a refurbished phone which will now be unavailable or more expensive, or the environmental perspective of having to manufacture new phones (future landfill) instead of reusing what already exists. If we care about other people then we should care about the consequences of what Apple is doing here.

Optuna vs Hyperopt, comparison of hyperparameter optimization libraries

Luckily there's plenty of evidence out there that makes it crystal clear that IBM very much wanted to be in business with Germany during that time: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_and_the_Holocaust

The mouse appears to be doing “cargo cult” type of behavior, placing junk in the bin and hoping peanuts will appear. Kind of like managers who hope that requesting documentation will help a better product appear on time. Fascinating.
>it does not follow that developers have the right to join an organization and force their political demands on management and ownership

It actually does follow that they have a right to do that, as doing that is explicitly protected by US labor law as a concerted organizing activity.
It seems like this idea could also achieve that by providing some kind of union of two taste-graphs. I'll input my wardrobe, then select from a set of pre-uploaded designers, and the algorithms can recommend clothes for me to purchase that are inspired by both my taste and the designer's.

What would be neat is if this system could automatically mine the taste graph from historical photographs pulled from social networks and the like, without effort on the user's part. (For example, everything you've uploaded to common social networks, or everything in your phone - if you choose to provide them)

Sadly, that's a fair point.
It's the same with Java where it's very hard/not possible to mock final methods. It's just that methods in Java are virtual by default so it's less "in the way" when you need to mock something.
> but observing stronger players is more educational

I disagree strongly on that. If stronger players are avoiding complicated pins / forks / checkmates, the weaker player will NEVER experience these positions.

It is far, far, far more educational to play against a stronger player and learn the tricks of the trade. Getting pinned by an expert is a lesson. Getting a "Queen Trap" is a lesson. A Fork is a lesson. Etc. etc.

Watching players stronger than you avoid all those positions is completely, and utterly non-helpful. You need to get those mistakes "beaten out of you" so to speak, if you ever wish to get better at Chess.

--------

Now, observing chess can be helpful with computer-analysis. After downloading the pgn file of a high-level game, play through it yourself vs Stockfish (PC vs SCID is decent freeware to run the Stockfish engine with), and try to discover the traps that the high-level players innately avoided.
It is an argument ad absurdum, which isn't an invalid argument though it can be emotionally charged

It is not argument ad absurdum. It's true that sometimes, it helps to use an exaggerated example to illustrate a nuanced point. But in this case it isn't that people don't understand there are lines. The point is superfluous, and you get to bring up Nazis yet again in comparison to border control. It's rhetorical tactic, not an argument.

For reference, argument ad absurdum is actually the opposite. That's when you take a logical premise to its extreme to show how it's a foolish proposition. In this case, the extreme example was in support of the proposition.

Those snippets are a rather disingenuous dismissal of "social justice". Contemporary discrimination based on race, gender, etc. is real and endemic, and working to address that would be a better way of looking at it.

Since you seem to have a positive sentiment towards Blazor, can you point me to a good introduction that demonstrates the power and the benefits of the framework, e.g. increased expressiveness, reduced friction, etc? I've looked through a couple of intros but they never seemed to really sell the benefits of it. As someone who loves the C# language and .NET ecosystem I really want to like it but nothing has clicked so far.
“ WTO says U.S. failed to halt state tax subsidy for Boeing”: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-eu-usa-aircraft-wto/wto-s...
I've been using the web on mobile connections ever since I got my first iPhone in 2008.

When you say that it was unusable, surely it's hyperbole.

I might be in a minority maybe, but I never had a problem with it and I've been a heavy user. And especially now that 4G connections are everywhere and smartphones are overpowered.

I mean I watch HD videos on the web while riding the city bus with no interruptions.

Are you telling me that a phone with better performance than the desktop I had 10 years ago, with a 4G connection able to stream hundreds of MB of data on a moving bus isn't capable of loading freaking text content without AMP?

Surely something is missing from this picture. I'm replying to you on Hacker News by loading the website in my browser, no AMP in sight. And I read HN, including all websites listed on HN, from my phone with no AMP.

And sure some websites can take a second or two to load due to crappy ads mostly. I remember a time when I waited for 5 minutes to load a website, when all we had was dial-up. And even that was awesome ;-)

N.b. I avoid AMP on purpose. I started using DuckDuckGo on my mobile to avoid AMP, as I had no other way to turn that shit it off.

Professional courtesy.
As long as there are multiple acquirers, the auction may approximately-fairly-value the company.

They make the case that they have talent, domain-knowledge, and patented IP. The company may be out of cash, but it is not intrinsically out of the fight, so long as cash can be made to appear suddenly.

Furthermore, any acquirer would be able to see the company's books, removing any information-asymmetry on the free-cash point.
That was my point...?
> In a targeted attack, it's likely the foreign agency would be using a 0-day attack.

A targeted attack is also expensive and the victim would need to have something worth this kind of money and attention. "Nation state actor" just isn't a reasonable risk assumption for a great many organizations.

> The only way to protect against that is by reducing the OS monoculture, offline backups, and using network air gaps on critical data.

When the "nation state actor" comes looking for you with some motivation, all that and the air gap won't mean much. See Stuxnet.

As far as I can tell nobody has reported on the "neighborhood portal" offered to police yet, looking at how this works along with the bizarre, giddy culture around how empowering this is for law enforcement is just disturbing.
It could only be used as a tie-breaker for search results with the same level of confidence, anyway.

It would be ridiculous to down-rank the exact thing the user is searching for just because the user would have to wait 800ms longer for that information. Or up-rank something the user isn't looking for just because it loads faster.

The best Google can do is bluff about how much perf matters.
>The boilerplate often helps when reading unfamiliar code

I don't believe this to be true at all, especially for large code bases. Often the people who support this position have not worked on 100k, 500k, 1m LOC applications I've found.

Boilerplate makes it much more difficult to read and scan large swatehs of code. I think when people say boilerplate 'helps', they often noticing a correlation between the fact that many strongly typed systems happen to have excess boilerplate. I believe it's the typing that helps, not the boilerplate.
Got any further reading on SpaceX getting a tougher review due to the pot thing? It seems kind of silly, if a CEO is seen having a glass of wine outside of work is there generally a presumption that the company / it’s employees are drunk during business hours?
In fact, Tim Cook has been actively engaging with politicians (including Trump) and that is a part of his magic sauce for "maintaining a neutral stance in public".
> crusading against DoH favor a different centralized DNS standard, DoT

I think that there are 2 camps against DoH. 1. Default centralization to specific points. EG firefox using cloudflare first and foremost, nobody else. 2. DoH adding complexity. DoT was (practically) superseeded with DoH anyway, if for nothing more than adoption.

> criticism against DoH that says it's wrong for browsers to co-opt DNS resolution at all, and that they should use the system's resolver. This is nonsense.

So... your argument is that I can't trust the OS to 'do the right thing' but I should trust the browser, because they know best? If you can't trust the OS, then how could I possibly trust a browser running on the said, untrusted OS?

Honestly asking how you came to that conclusion because the train of trust is broken on the OS level, so anything above is moot.

> DoH simply don't believe DNS lookups should be private

Problem with DoH is that it is private up to the endpoint. Nobody can listen on the request, but nobody is preventing the endpoint from telling everyone else that 'Joe Smith visited Youtube at {timestamp} Once the endpoint has the request, they have your info and can just as easily sell that to telcos.

End-to-End encryption and privacy is only as good as the people on the other side. Can't trust Alice with your message, then don't send it.

> modernizes the DNS protocol

If by modernize you mean convolutes. If I have a resolver on my network serving qwer.localnet. Browser asks cloudflare, returns nxdomain, then my system resolver asks for it; that is far more latency and is far from the modern proper solution for speed and privacy. Cloudflare now knows that I have a local domain, qwer.localnet.
The table with the breakdown of a typical premium really tells a story. No better evidence of America's broken and bloated healthcare-government-insurance complex than the fact that only 46% of the premium is actually used for claims.

Do you know that to be the case - ie is Apple obtaining your location, or is it your device obtaining your location?
That's one of the issues that conda (https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/) solves by design. When using conda environments you get hard links whenever possible. Improvements to venv, making it built-in module, and projects designed to simplify dependencies made conda less attractive in comparison but it's still a solid way to have Python. Still, it doesn't really solve fundamental issue with Python packages you mentioned, unfortunately.
That sounds absurdly high. What constitutes a serious injury?

> first, it breaks the URL specification, as the "host" is no longer a host.

Really, how so? RFC 3986 goes out of it's way to make clear that the "host" component doesn't mean DNS, and doesn't even have to denote a host.

"In other cases, the data within the host component identifies a registered name that has nothing to do with an Internet host."

"A URI resolution implementation might use DNS, host tables, yellow pages, NetInfo, WINS, or any other system for lookup of registered names."

> it breaks user's expectation of one of the FEW things that everyday users understand about the internet.

What, exactly and concretely, is that expectation?

> one may manage to upload an html file to the bank's server and serve a -signed- page that google amp will cache, and then use it to phish customers from within the bank's domain.

If the attacker can upload arbitrary pages to the bank's website, just why would they need signed exchanges? They've already got their phishing page on the correct domain.

Sandboxing in the language runtime is an interesting idea. I wonder if that could be offloaded to the OS/kernel instead so that every language doesn't have to reinvent the wheel. Eventually then hardware could handle it to reduce overhead.

Eg, declare parts of the compiled/interpreted code with specific privileges. Kind of like how memory regions can be NX.

No matter how attractive it may be to pretend that business decisions exist in some sort of apolitical moral vacuum the simple fact of the matter is that the overwhelming majority of them do not. Making money is not an excuse for improving the surveillance efficiency of autocratic regimes, building gas chambers, or supporting an organization that engages in mass-scale detention of child refugees.

I fully support the rights of employees to peacefully encourage their organizations to weigh the moral components of business decisions. It is obvious that, left to their own devices, large businesses will support slavery, genocide, and any number of horrors in the pursuit of profit - something has to restrain their behavior and it certainly isn't going to come from the C-level without serious pressure being applied.

NPM creates a node_modules folder and then fills it with the libraries that your app has specified. Then each of those libraries has their own node_modules folder and NPM will install the dependencies of that library and this happens recursively which is absolutely crazy. The directory structure is A-5.0/B2.0, C-3.0/B2.0, D-3.0/B2.0 which leads to B2.0 being duplicated three times even if it has the same version. Almost every package manager uses a completely different strategy. First of all every package gets a globally unique identifier (in NPM package identifiers are relative to the node_modules folder of which there are many). Usually it is the name of the package and if a package manager needs to support multiple versions of a library within the same program it just adds the version itself to the identifier. This means that if you need B2.0 then it would be stored in node_modules/B/2.0/ and libraries A, C and D would use that single version.

The NPM community is well known for their one liner packages with most of the work done in the dependencies. If that one liner has 5 dependencies and your project transitively depends on it 5 times through react or something then you end up creating 5 times as many files than are needed. It's very easy for a trivial application that uses NPM to have a million files in the node_modules folder.

I think your example actually helps make the case for imputed income, because whether you happen to live in the same house you own has huge tax consequences, which doesn't seem optimal. Without imputed income you are incentivized to live in the house that you own, even if it is worth less to you than what you could rent it for, because that way you don't have to pay taxes on that consumption value.

If you had to pay taxes on the imputed $4k a month then you would prefer to rent it out to someone who actually values it at $4k a month, and move yourself to a house that is better suited to you.
