I’ve been paying for OmniGraffle since 2004 or so and also bought licenses at various employers. The price has never been a problem.

But if it wasn’t a native Mac Cocoa app, I would never use it. A lot of OmniGraffle’s value comes from UI that abides by platform guidelines and the high-quality rendering and integrations enabled by being a native app rather than a lowest common denominator cross-platform port.

I’m not sure it would be practicing good social distancing to do a ton of construction work to double capacity, but yes, now would be a good time to fill existing reserves. Even oil tankers are getting reserved to store oil for later.

Good thing we replaced career lobbyist Tom Wheeler with someone who would actually do something, right? Are we so looking at the FCC through our worldview that we can't even acknowledge positive action?

Wheeler was born on April 5, 1946 in Redlands, California. He attended Ohio State University.[7] From 1969 to 1976, Wheeler led the trade group Grocery Manufacturers of America.[8] He then went on to work at the National Cable & Telecommunications Association from 1976 to 1984, becoming president of the trade group in 1979. For a year until its closure, Wheeler was president of NABU Network, before spending a number of years creating or running several different technology startups. In 1992, he became the CEO of the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association, a post he held until 2004.

> It is hard to know why anybody thought it so urgent to go to 64-bit seconds counters for internal use in the kernel.

I would like to know if there's a better explanation, but at least one reason is: time_t is by C standard suppressed to be able to represent real time - this may include past and future. You definitely want it 64b on the userland side. But once you do that, you either need to do careful conversation everywhere in kernel/user boundary, or use 64b in both.
To be fair, the conditions under ground are very different from the conditions in a tanker.
I switched from Zoom to Google Duo almost a year ago and haven't had any issues.
The difference between using software developed explicitly and exclusively for the Mac (and/or iOS) platform vs a cross-platform application is often quite dramatic.

Omni in particular makes extremely clean, friendly applications that feel aligned with the platform.
I know. I edited that a few times. Didn’t quite get it right. Subtle nuance to “you will get through this” and “you will be fine” I guess.

Not perfect.
I'm saying that you need to look at both points of data. Imagine you have two countries with 10 million people each. Country A has 50,000 deaths and country B has 55,000 deaths due to the virus. Just looking at this measure, the conclusion is that country A dealt with the crisis better. However, it could be that the measures taken in country A caused more problems for the economy, ultimately leading to the deaths of 10,000 people, while country B's economy recovered swiftly with almost no deaths resulting from it.

In this example country B ultimately had the better outcome, despite having more deaths directly due to the virus.

> Neither Debian nor Signal audit 3rd party applications in the way that Apple does

How do you mean? Almost everything Debian packages is authored by third parties. Debian aren't to my knowledge the original authors of LibreOffice or GIMP or Firefox. And they certainly don't just sign anything without looking at it.

They do also sign some packages they have authored themselves, as does Signal, as does Apple.
So it achieves the speed gains by using simd CPU instructions. Do most architectures support simd (including arm)?

Also, iirc the biggest negative of this library last time was that the API was super unintuitive (compared to, say, nlohmann). Glad to see progress has been made here.

Would love to see a quality python wrapper for this library.
Pretty much. The thermodynamics are the same if your turbine drives a propeller or a generator, and the losses due to friction and resistance are small. Diesel-electric locomotives have used the principle for 100 years.

1. The price of oil won't necessarily go up from here. If it goes to $5/bbl, that will make governments look a bit stupid when they filled every storage space available at $15/bbl in the open market. One scenario where price doesn't increase would be if there is destruction of demand for commuting, as people realize they can work from home just fine in the long term. Another would be if auto prices increase due to automakers shutting down production lines. A third would be if vacation travelers are still spooked by residual outbreaks after travel restrictions are lifted. On the production side, we haven't seen the kind of capitulation that would be required to change the who's-who of the market; the fracking industry has yet to go over the precipice and there's no sign of renewed OPEC+ cooperation, so there's no organic reason yet for prices to increase.

2. Strategic reserves are generally in salt domes and other accessible underground formations, so there is actually a cost to filling them and also to pumping them empty. And you can't exactly "double capacity" without buying old wells from corporations. So what you are proposing would actually be a bailout for oil producers.

3. Petroleum reserves are not terribly useful to the economy, aside from two particular cases: war and natural disaster. In war, supply chains get interrupted and fuel demand goes up. In natural disasters, production and storage can be interrupted. Outside of those two things, the ability for frackers and other high-cost producers to come online and sell oil will naturally act as a resistance to skyrocketing fuel prices in times of supply shock.

4. This could be a massive moment for renewable energy; goods transportation costs are very low and many people will be seeking work once the pandemic abates, so the government could establish WPA-style programs to build wind farms, electrical grid improvements, and solar farms -- instead of spending that money on buying fossil fuels in order to pump them back into the ground. Instead of spending money in an attempt to cling to fossil fuels, we could use this moment as an opportunity to pivot.

5. The sooner the price of oil bottoms and a few overextended frackers devalue themselves by selling at a loss in order to generate cash flow, the more likely it is that Saudi Arabia will be satisfied with the results of its price war and will return to the negotiating table to re-establish output curbs. If you try to artificially boost the price by buying crude, all you will end up doing is delaying the natural solution. Low prices solve the problem of low prices, by pushing many market participants out of the supply side and allowing the survivors to push up prices again in an attempt to capture their larger market share at a price point with a favorable profit margin.

6. Strategic petroleum reserves aren't that big, and many of them were already quite full prior to the selloff. Even the US SPR had only enough capacity to absorb all Saudi production for less than two weeks.
Way easier to get away with finding half of your existing customers that can pay double than to cut your prices by half and double your entire sales funnel.

Or at least this was the wisdom imparted on me by a long time sales manager for a large VAR.
Thanks and yep.
Norway is an outlier in that the Government Pension Fund Global was founded explicitly to avoid rent-seeking behavior and corruption. Every other system to date was initially created to facilitate the opposite, US included. How many oil companies have a council of ethics dictating conflicts of interest for investment?

What is also terrible is that many multinational resource giants (not just oil) actively encourage corruption in countries without stable governance, further advancing their resource curse.
Not nearly enough... that's the problem: the business models that produced products like that won't be around for much longer as the price gets closer and closer to 'free'. The economics of mobile are dismal for paid productivity software.

Because that's too complicated a message to send.

At a broad, high level, the message has to be simple and direct: stop (modes of) transmission (touching eyes, washing hands, being around people), quarantine yourself, self-isolate yourself, just stop!

Those simple and direct actions cover everything they need. Maybe that's pareto's principle.

> you have a signal with a message you suspect was intended for them

That would require you to be able to decrypt the encrypted signal that the satellite is broadcasting. Which you can't.

All these third party observers see is a bunch of digital noise continuously being broadcast by the satellites. They have no way of telling digital noise destined for a particular sub from the rest of the digital noise. So the signals convey no useful information to them.

In my mind a bailout is cash in exchange for nothing. If you're paying someone for the usage of something they own, isn't that just commerce?

No it's not.

Unpaid leave puts people in the position of having to decide between health (and not infecting their coworkers) and losing money. Paid sick leave instead puts employees in the position of being able to look after themselves (and their coworkers) without penalties.

It might seem like a trivial difference for people who make decent money, but it's a huge difference for people who are not in a good financial situation.

> Croatia also does well. Croatia has both land and maritime borders (also ferries running back and forth) with Italy.

I have a friend that lives in Zagreb, and after the earthquake that damaged the town she said an alarming amount of People were outdoors, and were unprotected as they were worried about aftershocks and tremors and just left their homes.

So she went to the countryside with her family, she said she was super lucky because right after she left they closed down all public transportation and issued a mandated lockdown.

Croatia is a really small country with a small population so its far more manageable to contain then the US or China, it also has a high elderly population who are most vulnerable: I spent a lot of time there, and in the South its common to be in a town where the average age is 70+ with them filling as the primary child care takers as the parents are in major cities working or often in other parts of the EU.

So its interesting how the containment measures play out as it has really dire consequences.

Economically speaking, they're screwed if this goes on: its mainly a tourism based economy with little else, they're active like 7 months out of the year in order to survive the other 5 as it comes to a stall.
Yes, though theoretically a single PDF could contain multiple exploits for multiple different PDF reader programs, I believe. Not sure if that's ever actually been observed, but it seems plausible in theory.

I wouldn't be surprised if Zoom suddenly started exploiting browser zero days to force install things "for your own good"
Yeah, I feel this. I strongly believe that the "App Store economy" has taught developers to underprice their work, and that $25, $50, even $100 isn't unreasonable. But Omni's stuff... it gets steep if you're a relatively casual user, especially if you want both Mac and iOS versions.

While it's possible I'm an outlier, I can't help but wonder if a different pricing structure -- say, $49.99 for most Mac programs, $19.99 for most iOS ones, and a (gasp) subscription of $39.99 per year for upgrading to the Pro version that covered both iOS and Mac versions of the app -- would actually make them more money in the long run.

Computer programs don’t include the CPU design. DNA on the other hand encodes everything which then gets leveraged during cell division.

Basically, DNA includes the design for both the car, car factory, and all the component factories that feed the car factory, and the mines that feed the component factories. People have dependencies on their diet for things like vitamin C, but that’s a whole other issue.

PS: Mitochondria also have DNA, but that’s just location specific and can simply be added to the total for the cell.

The thought of humanity destroying the environment to get the oil and then, in a fit of panic and at great expense, pumping it back into the ground, caused me to erupt in laughter.
Refining adds about 30 cents per gallon flat, a bit more with additives, higher octane cracks, etc.

Here in Texas, it's 20 cents state tax + 18.4 cents federal tax

Distribution ranges from 20 cents/gallon to well over 2 dollars to far-flung places, this is the explanation behind most regional variance in price, they run pretty lean, maybe cost + 5-7%. (It's a volume play.)

So 17 cents crude + 30 cents refining + 38 cents taxes + say 25 cents distribution to Austin gets you to $1.10 and
the rest is margin, minus marketing and operating the retail location and you get net profit, typically in the 8-12 cent per gallon range.

When oil prices rise, the refiners usually extract most of the profit at the point of sale to distributors / retail.

Gasoline is profitable but distributed throughout the value chain.
Unrefined it is basically infinite. If it is refined it varies from months to years, to potentially decades depending on exactly what it is. But worst case, you can always refine it again if it goes bad.
