Yes, but that's the customers choice to make.
I would be very surprised if you were asked about red-black trees or splay balancing at the two large tech companies I’ve worked for. That would be considered too niche/specific to be a good interview question unless you were applying for a position which needed that particular knowledge.

On the other hand asking to “invert” a binary tree is totally fair game. I attribute Max’s frustration partially to his interviewer not adequately explaining what “invert” means in that context though that would also partially give the answer since it’s IMO a very easy problem (though not a good one since it’s confusing).

Original batteries aren't some magical spec devices that other batteries can't substitute. Most of them are made by the same few manufacturers and it is trivial to find a replacement with similar specs.

Well I suppose I was thinking more of the fact that my phone cost me about a third the price of an iphone. A year ago I cracked the screen, I'd driven several miles when I realised I'd forgotten it, it was when I swung the car round to go back that I heard it come off the roof. Works fine still.

> Just leaving out the word "genuine" doesn't make it not-misleading.

agree on this point - in english there would be some distinction between 'refurbished iPhone screens' vs 'refurbished screens for iPhones', where the former implies some kind of 'official screen' and the latter implies a 'compatible part'

but - and I don't know the labelling used or norwegian - what if there is no native language construct that captures this subtle distinction?
The complexities of the word have been lost as the English language continues to evolve, until the colloquial understanding supplants the literal origins.

We exist at a particular moment in time, and language is a tool that is used to be understood. If one wishes to use arcane and literal etymologically-derived definitions of words, it is necessary to say so.

It's in Apple's best interest to maintain high customer satisfaction, because that's how they get repeat business.

This question is in the same vein as hypothetical questions like 'what prevents Apple from violating people's privacy to sell/use their data'. The answer is always the same: pick a business model that aligns customer and company interests, and these things won't happen.

Apple thinks in long term customer relationships measured in customer lifetime value, which can be 10s of thousands of dollars over decades of customer relationship. To sacrifice that for a few extra bucks on screen repair would be really dumb.

It takes a few weeks to get to the first level. None of the people coming out of these bootcamps are building secure software at scale.

Imagine if you wanted to become a house builder. Coding bootcamps teach you to build a doghouse, which is easy to learn within a few weeks. People will pay for doghouses, so you may as well start there.

Over time, you build sheds, barns, and then move on to homes.
I feel like Bourbaki set back teaching mathematics a great deal, by focusing too much on the abstraction rather than the concepts and intuition behind it.

I think that the results of these types of surveys can be misleading, as they don't always ask if the respondent is unsure. Wouldn't it be better to ask them how knowledgeable they believe they are on a given topic before asking them about the exact numbers? Similarly, wouldn't it be better to ask them first about their support for a given policy change?

Many of these answers will simply be guesses. I think it would be far more informing if these answers were broken down by people who believe they are knowledgeable or who support certain policies.
> "can no longer vouch for the veracity of the primary data sources."

It's a little understatement when the accusations are they made up the data.
The US by definition can't default on its own debt. It's literally impossible because all debt is in USD. If the US gets into the situation where it doesn't have enough money to pay off its interest payments, the only one solution is to print more money to pay off the debt. This will lead to #2 in your list, which is actually just #1.

When the US starts printing money, it will lead to a lot of destruction of assets because China will also start selling their UST causing interest rates to jump. I can see a weird situation where inflation starts to jump but also interest rates jumping as well.
As far as I understand it, Apple prefers that they not show up in the news as "iPhone EXPLODES" because the part where it says the customer bought some cheap third-party replacement is going to be buried ten lines into the article.

People who would rather buy houses than rent should feel free to do so. No landlord is forcing someone to rent their property.

It is often the case that renting is quite a bit cheaper and always the case that it's more flexible to do so, which is why a lot of people choose to rent instead of buying. Society benefits when people who wish to rent housing have housing available for lease.

I think of the Unix Hater's Handbook as a kind of loving roast to Unix, that hackers of the time understood to be humorous (you know, how people complain about the tools they use every day, much like people would later complain endlessly about Windows) and which was widely misunderstood later to be a real scathing attack.

It hasn't aged very well, either. "Even today, the X server turns fast computers into dumb terminals" hasn't been true for at least a couple of decades...

You can also enjoy reasonable third-party repairers and official repairers at reasonable prices.

The parallel here, to me, is that the stock market is solely based on investors' perceptions of reality, not reality itself. As soon as investors realize that their investments are untenable, they will pull out, triggering an accelerating freefall until we hit terminal velocity.

The economy is unhealthy but people can be convinced to ignore that because it's not easy to see the holistic conditions of the US economy on a day-to-day basis, and the way we summarize it in public discourse and media (looking at indices of the stock market) are assuaging any fears that may arise.

Personally I find the analogy perfectly apt.

If apple (and other manufacturers) did not want to make people technology obsolete they would support right to repair, provide open access to parts and schematics, and allow independent repair shops to do board level repairs with out threat of lawsuit

They created the environment where counterfeits and shady dealers are required by prohibiting any official ways to repair things

So I do not have any sympathy for your argument. The day I can go to apple.com to buy a capacitor and order a schematic is the day I will agree with you
Is that a problem? Those landlords and banks have collateral -- the properties and mortgages themselves. I care a lot more about housing from a "how well does it house humans" perspective than a "how well does it generate income for landlords/capitalists" perspective. If landlords and mortgage lenders ended up having to sell their assets for pennies on the dollar, I'd imagine it would make housing a lot more affordable to people and spread more evenly.
Kinda off topic but I miss those days when you could go to a drug store and buy fighter plane model kits with all the paints and other supplies. As a kid the one I always wanted was the F-117. This kind of thing got me interested in studying history and building things with my hands.

Oh yeah, USA will turn into Japan overnight. All we have to do is give the police more resources, power, impunity.

Please be honest. No one is that dumb, especially not you. The reason Japan's streets are clean is that they are used primarily by the Japanese. They have different cultural defaults than we do, and perhaps one might say that in this respect they are just better. Japan's cops are actually drastically less aggressive and abusive than USA cops. Also, numerous Japanese have told me that they wished their drug prohibition could be repealed. If that happened, no one would expect Ginza to turn into the Tenderloin.

I you have some time, try replacing the screen yourself. There are tons of instruction videos (probably also for your model) and a new screen is surprisingly cheap (for an Android phone).
Exactly, that’s why I suggested suspending capitalism, but in which case what do you replace it with?

We could of course just give everyone what they would have made, based on last year’s tax returns or whatever, of course this has its own problems (inequality, inflation, etc.)
Somewhat, but to make that argument you'd have to show what percentage they're buying and how prices have moved. I don't think there's evidence of a large effect currently.

> The only problem is that the dollar happens to be the world's reserve currency.

This is actually great for the US. As you said, every other country will deflate their own currency so the dollar will likely not change that much relative to the other currencies. The inflation will make people want to spend money, especially a spent up demand is released as the eco use normalize. We may see rapid economic growth.
It's less that pipelines are friction, they're really not.

It's more that people like building features and people don't like saying no to features.

Thank you for this latest feedback, just as condescending as the earlier feedback.
But Apple is not a luxury, high performance manufacturer like BMW or Mercedes.
How is this different of someone fixing a brand name stereo amplifier by replacing the capacitors or op-amp with some other similarly specced parts?
Way back in the day I worked for CompUSA while they were going out of business and helped shut down a number of their stores in my area. The process was to mark everything back to normal retail prices, announce a going out of business sale and on a set time frame start to lower prices (depending on how fast we needed to clear the store).

Most of the high value things were bought at their normal “on sale” prices with the few things that snuck by to the lower price points getting picked up by employees and friends of employees. Everything else was junk and would get sold off for 40%-80% off of retail. Then we would sell things like shelving and display cases.

Obviously this isn’t an equivalent scenario, but if we start seeing retail stores going out of business, I imagine it will follow a similar pattern.

We've had several months of social distancing, which bought us a lot of time to ramp up healthcare and medical supply manufacturing capacity.

Interesting. I'm a student from Europe. All of my international friends have the same experience. But Canadian have a very special relationship with the US (like few/no visas...) so I guess I'm not surprised.
I'm kind of glad things are falling apart. It's like walking in the slightly wrong direction, every day you don't change course you add a bit of debt. At this point we're hitting something of a dead end, and it may finally be time to fix things.

It's going to be painful, ofc. But it always was.
This is also a misleading comment. The main purpose of the Secondary Market Corporate Credit Facility is to purchase secondary market bonds and this is stated in the IMA and term sheet. The only reason why they're buying ETFs right now is because it's easier operationally and the issuer registration process for primary and secondary bond purchases has been difficult so far. They are not buying ETFs because they are "more liquid and convenient" vs underlying.

The Fed also is absolutely trying to directly support issuers through these facilities and ETF purchases are an important part of this. Primary issuance is dictated by where secondary markets are trading and if some of the most liquid corp instruments (ETFs) are trading extremely wide or at a huge discount to NAV (like they were before these facilities were announced) then primary issuance will either be much more expensive or completely closed.

I think Apple has grounds on this case.

But is it "allowed" (by Apple or by law) at all, to manufacture/sell 3rd party parts of iPhone (I mean by not pretending to be genuine parts)?

If not, and combined with the fact Apple don't sell their genuine parts to basically anybody, the situation still sounds ridiculous to customers at the end of the day.

Edit: by the way, what's the legal status of reclycled parts from genuine iPhones?
Nope, many people (sadly technical people) browse the web without JS turned on.

You are such great people, I knew it.
now will there be a next step ? This looks like fraud, and my hope now is that there is a police investigation, because it may very well be guided by economical interest.

No conspiracy theory here, there's nothing sure, but we can't rule it out completely either.
Right, but we don’t want that. How can we avoid that?
When you mentioned retaliation, I assumed the police would be roughing people up or harassing them over trivial offences or something. (Classic TV examples: going wild on parking or DUI enforcement at a targeted politician's fundraisers).

But this is a work slowdown.

"Okay, here's less policing."
