> Now if iOS was more hacker friendly, I'd write an app to automate that action and have it run regularly or on a random schedule or something.

Of course you never mentioned Android in your post, but I just want to point out that Android in no way is more hacker-friendly. As soon as you obtain root access half of apps will stop to be feature-complete because Google have SafetyNet and there is no way at all to make your own legit "hacker" apps trusted to use elevated privileges. How is your phone is useful if part of games wont work, streaming wont work, banking apps dont work, etc.

Of course they sell it under sauce of anti-malware and "security", but it's Android have anti-consumer DRM system that make your compromise between useful apps and whatever hacks you wish to apply. So not that much more useful compared to jailbroken iOS.
No worries. If such surveillance devices become widespread, complex infrared video-camera-blocking tech will be outlawed - after all, they are there to provide security and prevent crime, hence anybody trying to thwart them is either against security or a criminal...

I took it to mean that smart people sometimes have low-status jobs, and conversely people in high-status jobs are not always smart. That's definitely something I have personally experienced given my career has taken me from working as a building labourer and factory worker through to being a C-suite exec, with stops through the trading side of investment banking and Silicon Valley on the way.

It's a huge mistake to look down on and make assumptions about someone just because they have a "bad" job.
Fair, although the sentence you quoted started with "I personally think I would...".
"C/C++" is not a language.

Good lord, how much ignorance can hackernews handle??
Tickling is surprisingly complex and specific, random noise like wind blowing on skin will not tickle you, you cant tickle yourself, you clothes dont tickle you, etc. How is it a bad metaphor for music? Id even go as far as calling music a form of humanity pleasuring itself not as in the act of emulating sex but emulating the most interesting parts of a language
On HN, a small number of reposts is ok if a post hasn't had significant attention yet in the last year or so. This is in the FAQ: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html.

It's true that repostiness per se is annoying, but it's more annoying for good submissions to miss out on attention because /newest is something of a lottery. Allowing a small number of reposts is a way to mitigate that randomness, until we can maybe work out a better solution.
Compared to __slots__ (also Python 3.7.4)

Using your definition of class X

%timeit x.w()
313 ns ± 18.3 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000000 loops each)

Add __slots__

class X:
__slots__ = ('a')
def w(z):
a = z.a
return a+a+a+a+a

%timeit x.w()
271 ns ± 7.13 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000000 loops each)

About 14% less time.

To outsiders it looks like they end up with compromised solutions, but to insiders it looks like they achieved the impossible.
There is a number of companies that make what's called 'app-scripts'.

One is appdupe.com there are a couple of others.

Basically they take X-like-Y business ideas that demonstrated, nominally, their worth (in either solving a business problem, or attracting investors).

And they just duplicate those models -- uber-like, tinder-like, etsy/ebay-like, and so on.

They generate the source for apps, backend services, etc --- you just give them your twitter handle, name, logo, contact, fb page... whatever.

I also read when researching this, that some of them produce 50 apps per week.

Apparently, again 3rd hand info, that their services start at 10K usd and go up from there....

I have no idea about the quality, may be bad and may be they they will end up charging 10 times more what you though initially...

So imaging that people are not shy of duplicating a business idea and just applying perhaps to something else, or just a different geographical region....

It is definitely not pointless building software that already exists.

I would say go for it...

Either of 3 things will happen

a) you are successful and completion fails

b) they are successful and you fail

c) you are both successful

in all 3 scenarios -- end users seem to be benefit.
It depends on what the community you're from defines as "high status". In some parts of the US, a tradesman who owns their own small business is far more respected than, say, a lawyer or a software engineer.
I haven't noticed more notification spam in Google apps, but what I have noticed is the way better notification management in recent years.

I can long press on notifications and directly block it forever or finely tune the App sending it what it is allowed to send etc.

Last time I used an iPhone I still had to double swipe to even dismiss a notification, which is super annoying because most are probably spam.

If Notifications on iOS were as good as on Android I would instantly switch.

I feel we have a huge collective blindspot - hard work is emphasized at the expense of working smart. Mode than half of all work in our society is unnecessary and inefficient busywork.

Once you start considering efficiency of peoples work, it's very difficult to have a consistent framework.
You mentioned code signing certs. What are your thoughts for document signing certificates? They embed a public copy into the document itself often not trusted..
Why "alienate"? Apple bothers me with their iCloud when I'm doing a bunch of unrelated things all the time but I'm not alienated. Google could show a sensible explanation (true or not) about how Apple's changes will cause their search quality to decline and could get users on their side.

If Google went nuclear as an answer to losing 99% of their revenue from iPhones/iPads/macbooks and blocked their users completely, I would personally switch to Android right away. Google's search results and maps are much more important to me than a polished UI and a high-end screen.
That's the best part!

Startup time is complex, but base startup only increased about 20ms, and that's being generous.

I'll admit Python 3 is still slower at a lot of things. But that feels like saying your new dog is even worse at math than your old one.

The C extension thing isn't Python's fault. It's the job of library and app authors to update. Do we complain that Vulkan has bad SunOS support? This is totally backwards.

Could Hinsen (and others) not just version their deps? It's not like people are erasing Python 2 off the internet. If his main worry is reproducibility, he should be doing that anyway.

---

I don't want to give the impression I like the whole Python 3 thing. I think it was a pretty big mistake and a huge missed opportunity. I'm very sympathetic to people who had to put in a lot of work for basically no good reason--Python 3 didn't really offer anything significantly better than 2 until... 3.5 (3.4 if you think the first pass at async was useful, I personally don't).

But I also find the ballyhooing about it really insufferable. Yeah it was a mistake; Armin Ronacher (as usual) was right. It was also over 11 years ago. Time to forget all about this and build cool stuff, please please please.

Changing the Face of Online Education Globally – ETutorWorld
Everyone has read 1984, and The Handmaid's Tale, and Brave New World in high school. Or if not there then in their freshman lit class. Therefore those books are the yardsticks that all dystopian hot takes on current events must measure themselves against, no matter how nonsensical.

The Rust standard library has a solution for this that actually works: On Unix-like systems file paths are sequences of bytes and most of the time the bytes are UTF-8. On Windows, they are WTF-8, so the API users sees a sequence of bytes and most of the time they match UTF-8.

This means that there's more overhead on Windows, but it's much better to normalize what the application programmer sees across POSIX and NT while still roundtripping all paths for both than to make the code unit size difference the application programmer's problem like the C++ file system API does.
Music produces sophisticated colorful shapes that aren't visualizeable, yet visible to our mind, so it sees the shapes, appreciates their complexity and order and creates emotions. Classical compositions produce exceptionally complex structures that can be appreciated only by a few.

I think almost by definition nothing is iPhone huge, right? The iPhone is, I would presume, the single most lucrative hardware product ever made by any company ever. So that clearly can't be the barrier for "blockbuster".

I would have assumed the barrier for blockbuster is something more like the iPad or iPod, which as the article notes, both Apple Watch and AirPods are. Maybe you can argue both are less revolutionary or the product categories simply in some sense "matter" less, maybe that's the point.

Can anyone now give a reasonable ETA for the HTTP/3 RFC:s?

I see that the WG charter has one milestone in May 2020, and Daniel Stenberg of curl has mentioned early 2020 before. In addition, AFAIU, both Chrome and Firefox have implementations ready, though still behind flags.

Is it likely that we'll see actual deployments and a wider rollout already in 2020?
Outside of the potential social or philosophical benefits to going to college, a degree can be looked at like an investment. In the case of Houston, UH has good programs hooked into the petrochemical and banking sector in the city. The Bauer College of Business is well regarded and commodities traders start off at around $100k/year in salary and go far higher:

https://work.chron.com/commodity-trader-base-salary-28291.ht...

The internship program at the university help facilitate a pathway into these kinds of jobs:

https://careercenter.bauer.uh.edu/internships/

Alternatively, the chemical and petrochemical engineering departments are also well regarded. The local paper is only listing the average staring salary salary nationwide, but I recall new local engineering hires making somewhere between $75-$100k:

https://work.chron.com/average-chemical-engineering-starting...

Most seasoned engineers that I know of in the field make in excess of $200k/year and they retire as low millionaires.

The point is that $120k in lost wages pales in comparison to the financial security a degree can provide assuming that one has the appetite and ability for that kind of work. UH and HCC get a lot of grief, but it's a reasonable school that produces good people.

I'd actually say that the most impactful first habit is regular exercise. Especially a few hours of strength training and a few hours of aerobic exercise per week.

You can have a mediocre diet and still see huge health benefits. The opposite is not true: a sedentary lifestyle will kill you and the last years will be miserable with little in the way of physical autonomy.
Your computer is evidently faster than my phone; how fast was y() for you?

Work never ends. No matter how much you get done there will always be more. I see a lot of colleagues burn out because they think their extra effort will be noticed. Most managers appriciate it but do not promote their employees.
I think this has become a cliché here (a true one, however).

The interesting question is what sort of jobs contain a lot of challenges that are technical in nature.
More than that. In my opinion, it's better to offer lots of small equal opportunities (which means certain forgiveness) than one big equal opportunity (which you can get easily wrong). That's why I would favor a minimum basic income, which gives people a small opportunity to do better every month, although it has its downsides, too (I wouldn't want to replace all public services with it).

Also, this only addresses the low-end of the inequality, for example people being poor. But inequality (of power, money are just a proxy for that) also causes problems at the high-end, because power corrupts and the more power you have, more corrupt you can become. So it is desirable to limit that too.

I wouldn't mind if there was a cap on personal wealth (say $10M), but many people feel it's wrong. I don't think it's necessarily unfair, I mean if economics is a competition (and not a power grab), in other competitions you don't get an advantage if you have been previously a winner (for example, Usain Bolt doesn't get to start 10m ahead because he won all the races up to that point). Even though people in other competitions start at the same line again, it actually doesn't seem to affect their willingness to participate. I don't know why people believe business should be any different.
Yeah, that's what I'm describing.

You get a notification when the application accesses your location from the background.

You're not using the app at the time it makes the request, and you get a system notification telling you about the location access.

As the years go by, I find myself craving a job with a physical labor component to it.

A friend of mine studied enology (wine making) at Cornell and his job is about 50% business management and 50% wine making. Some days he has to wear a suit to work, other days he comes home in a wine stained smock. It seems like a good balance.
> How much of that is an insistence on thinking of things in terms of fundamental particles and definitive properties instead of fields and packets of energy? I guess the question is that what the mathematical models are really about, and whether we're just having a hard time shrugging off Greek atomism and 19th century materialism when it comes to intuition?

I don't think it's "Greek atomism and 19th century materialism" to imagine a world made of persistent physical objects in well-defined positions. That's the entirety of everyday life.

I find your assessment of music to be (not personally, but conceptually) insultingly reductive.

(Paraphrasing) "It's just math, linguistics and biology" is just about the least convincing reductivist statement possible to make. The idea that music simply exists to "get down" is frankly laughable.

To give an example, I think many people who listen to music a lot would agree that it somehow interacts with memory in a subtle yet profound way.

I may not be able to remember the exact details of a certain experience precisely, but if I happened to be listening to some music then, and I listen to it again now, it often recalls a memory of emotion I wouldn't otherwise have access to.

Further: the experience of listening to song you've listened to many times over many years tends to accumulate and integrate associations, like a perpetual stew. The experience of listening to a song you've known and listened to for many years is about as close to the experience of dreaming as I've found in waking life.

I’m excited to see Australian pushing through open banking APIs, reusing most of the UK/EU spec... but the implementation keeps getting pushed back and back and back.

knowledge is knowledge, no matter where you obtained it. However, the connections you make during college is sometimes quite important, as they are the windows of opportunity that aren't available to the non-connected. E.g., if you have a friend in the same class, then they are more likely to refer you to their company if you are in need of a job (later in life). Or if they are already rich and are investors, you are more likely to be considered to be confounders or business partners.
> The cop is already pretty sure you did it (or he wouldn't have brought you in)

There are different stages before arrest that matter here.

There is a burden of "reasonable suspicion", "probable cause", etc. (or some equivalent like "exigent circumstances"). An arrest requires both of these, plus some evidence of a crime. Being convicted at trial requires "beyond a reasonable doubt" (for criminal charges, as opposed to {civil, tax, military}).
I don’t count it as lying unless there is intent behind it. But it is certainly true that many people’s deeply held beliefs are not as true as they think they are, myself included obviously. The more experienced you get, the fewer absolute truths there are.
