It’s been a while since I worked with the photo library APIs in iOS, but as I recall there in fact is an API that apps can use to request the user to pick individual photos from an OS picker without further permissions. Most apps just don’t use it because they all want to do their own custom photo picker UIs (even privacy focused apps fall victim to this).
Wondering the same thing myself. What toppings got imported into Italy from the US? Certainly not things like pineapple!

Maybe things like prosciutto cotto (ham) or salamino piccante ("peperoni") ?

The case count, ex China, appears to be doubling every three days. It was at 10K on Mar 1.

Do the math on that (10M on Apr 1, 10B on May 1) and it's entirely possible that this will all pretty much have happened before much can be done technically or scientifically.

I'd love to hear that I'm totally wrong on this.

There is a library called reagent which is a wrapper for React, check it out: https://reagent-project.github.io/

It uses a the same data format as hiccup template library which can be used on server side - https://github.com/weavejester/hiccup

That's why the same code can be used on client and server. The simplicity of the process (uses pure functions to turn immutable data structures to html) means that it can be also easily unit tested.
We wanted to build a lightweight and performant client that integrates deeply with the OS. We're planning to implement another native client for Windows later.

How so? If Apple didn't mitigate lower battery voltage than customers' phones would have been unusable. A customer with a phone crashing so often it's unusable is more likely to replace it than one that is slowed down. How does extending the usable life of the phone result in more sales?

I've largely stopped trying to say anything like "I do x because of y cultural influence." Like: "My mom's German, so..." I often have no way of knowing if my mom does that thing because it's a widespread thing in German culture or if that's just a thing my mom does and it's got little or nothing to do with her being born and raised in Germany.

(I've run into Germans who do the opposite of something my mom does that I thought was representative of German culture and been told their way was the norm in Germany. I threw my hands in the air and made my peace with "not everything my mom does is representative of most Germans.")

We routinely think X person is from Y culture, so X person is representative of Y culture and it's frequently just absolutely not true at all. Fascinating that this fact leads to the works of essentially cultural outcasts coming home again and being embraced as "one of us" and someone we are proud to claim as a representative of our culture when they were originally "that loser we want nothing to do with, so they had to leave the country to succeed."

Nah, we just really wanted to stop using an import path tied to a specific hosting provider. Once we decided to change to an entirely different path, we waffled a lot over whether to tag it v1 or v2. There were arguments for and against either, so we eventually picked one and went with it.

According to this very report, 80% of cases are "mild or moderate". This can mean anything from getting the sniffles for a while, to full on pneumonia (but not enough pneumonia to have to go to the hospital).

Yes it is technically correct that the majority of cases are mild. I wouldn't call that "inconsequential", or "similar to the flu". Maybe "Similar to the worst flu you've ever had", although the important distinction (need hospital vs get better on your own) remains the same. But that statement is true in roughly the same way (and with roughly the same probability(+)) as saying "the majority of people who play Russian Roulette win". Yes, I have an 83% chance of living. I still don't want to play that game

(+) According to this very study that we are all commenting on right now, ~20% of cases need hospitalization, and a majority of those cases will be fatal without it

React Native isn't necessarily a great fit for something that is intended to be "a simple, lightweight utility" - there is a reasonable start up overhead, for example, with RN, and it also involves bundling quite a few libraries and dependencies.

That doesn't mean React Native is not a good fit for any kind of application - for many kinds of apps, start up time and app size are a much smaller issue - but seems Facebook made the right decision for an app like Messenger which primarily needs to start fast and drain as few resources as possible.

> ...about WTF is happening in wavefunction collapse

That's in large part because that particular term is a hand-wave assertion firmly in the realm of the Copenhagen interpretation. i.e. "It just happens, and we'll call it this." The term presupposes there is a differences between a quantum realm and a classical realm, rather than quantum rules pertaining continuously (like the Many Worlds interpretation supplies).

I think the notions expressed in the article don't really resolve anything except to emphasize there is much we don't understand.
I wouldn't say that "But if this work makes some headlines of the “Linus Pauling was right” sort, don’t believe them" is a political position. Pauling was wrong: he didn't say "High dose IV vitamin C is helpful", he said (paraphrased) "High dose IV vitamin C is helpful because it is an antioxidant". But it's not an antioxidant, as this paper shows, it's an oxidant! It's helpful, but for exactly the wrong reason, and low-dose vitamin C is an antioxidant, which is harmful! So if Pauling were correct you'd expect other antioxidants to help, but they also cause harm (in oncology).

Sorry, I should have phrased that in a kinder way.

The fact that Pin is expected to enable more than it does is part of the problem. It's not for usual self-referential structs. It's not for usual umovable types. It has 2000 words of documentation, and I'm still not sure what to do with it. I need to understand pin/unpin, structural/non-structural projections, and drop guarantees. It has a lot of "you can do this, but then you can't do that" rules that the compiler can't help with.

For me most Rust features are either easy to understand (like UnsafeCell or MaybeUninit), or I can rely on the compiler make me use them correctly (like borrowing or generics). But with Pin my impression is that it pushes the limits of what can be done without compiler's safety net.

It says so on the leaflet probably, but over 500 units per day over a long time raises the risk of kidney stones.
The big difference this time around is that a lot of us no longer need cutting edge CPU performance. The CPU in my home computer is over 10 years old, and I see no need to upgrade for performance. A fast 2010-era CPU is still pretty darn good for a lot of common uses.

That was definitely not the case at the turn of the century. In 2000, a new personal computer might have had a Pentium 4 or PowerPC G4, while in 1990 it had an 80486 or 68030 -- a huge performance difference. You couldn't even run a 2000-era OS (except Linux) on a 1990 CPU, and you wouldn't have wanted to if you could.

I don't know much about RISC-V, but even if it's 10 years behind the state of the art, that sounds good to me!

Yes, effectively. The US has tested ~zero people relative to population (under a thousand according to CDC), compared to eg South Korea who has tested thousands of people.

Estimates suggest that between 150-1500 people in Seattle are infected, so the 96 number is clearly off.
There isn't any generation 4. The functionality of the software is ubiquitous by that point. Nobody cares anymore except when they absolutely have no other choice. By that point even if you generated a brand new implementation you would struggle to give it away unless it was just one small part of a new innovation.
Shooting up C doesn't sound appealing, but I wonder if liposomal C might be worth exploring after all.
Safari only supports "Apple Pay" + "basic card" -- it's blocking / not supporting other payment methods / instruments -- W3C Payment Method ID / Payment Handler API is not implemented right.

Like the successful lawsuit against Apple regarding the closed NFC API for payments in Germany, I suppose the same would apply for "Apple Pay on the web" (non-discrimination of other payment methods).

SEPA Instant Credit Transfer (SCTInst) + PSD2 Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) is working fine with PR API + Payment Handler + Payment Method ID + Payment Method Manifest specs.

As Webkit / Safari only implemented the Payment Method ID for usage with Apple Pay (on the web), there it is only possible to redirect the user to a web page (a Progressive Web App which is else rendered in the PR modal).

Incompetent in achieving what goal?

Building an accurate Coronavirus map has a questionable value, considering that Coronavirus is quite similar to a regular influensa.

CDC was successful so far in delaying Coronavirus panic. Now the US public will learn that the scary disaster did happen several weeks ago and nobody even noticed.

That cognitive dissonance will cause brief embarrassment, but then the general public will calm down and move on to other worries.
Great idea and as you mentioned, this should be possible with our native implementation. I'm not too familiar with the accessibility features provided by Apple. Feel free to send me an email (thomas@raycast.app). We're curious to explore this and help other developers as much as we can.

> The github.com/golang/protobuf module is APIv1.

> The google.golang.org/protobuf module is APIv2. We have taken advantage of the need to change the import path to switch to one that is not tied to a specific hosting provider.

That's such a weird choice, and will be quite confusing. Now every time you see protobuf being imported, you have to be sure to pay extra attention to the domain used, and correctly remember which one is v1 or v2. If only go modules established a clear way to differentiate API versions using the import path!
This is the problem with startup companies, they think too much about product and too little on communications.
