Amy open source models worth looking into?
Well, off the top of my head:

* a single language for both client-side (browser) code and server-side code

* a single data representation (maps with namespace-qualified keys), so no conversions necessary

* spec which helps validate data in multiple places (such as :pre/:post conditions)

* core.async which lets me write asynchronous code both in the JVM and in the browser, same primitives

* a library of excellent sequence manipulation functions

* transducers, which let me build composable data pipelines

* the Rum library which lets me use React as a rendering engine, basically a function of my data

* most of my domain code is shared between the browser and the server

There is more, but these were what I could come up with immediately.

I mostly spend time thinking and working on the problem domain, not writing boilerplate (there is none in Clojure, really).
That's cool, it's still one of his best.
What is Asynchronous Programming in JavaScript?
My personal favorite feature of this release: It enables the async/await language feature to work on #[no_std] targets. This means that with an appropriate executor, you can run async/await code on embedded microcontrollers!

Ferrous Systems have written a blogpost on what async/await can look like for writing embedded firmware: https://ferrous-systems.com/blog/async-on-embedded/ With Rust 1.44, this now becomes possible on the stable release of the language (previously you needed nightly). Very exciting.
Yes, you can't regen 100% of the energy of a full stop from 70->0. But why would you want to?

You see the traffic slowing down, foot off the pedal, regen starts and the car slows down. Traffic gets going again, push the pedal.

I don't think that's a gross misrepresentation from the point of view of the average person at all. The average consumer of news that has already staked a political position will ignore the nuance you pointed out in your comment. So yes, for liberals, a class of drugs that have been used for decades to safely and effectively treat a number of conditions is all of a sudden deadly.

A big part of teaching computer science to children is breaking this obsession with approaching a computer from the top down — the old ICT ways, and the love of apps — and learning that it is a machine under your own control the understanding of which is entirely tractable from the bottom up.

Unlike the natural sciences, computer science (like math) is entirely man made, to its advantage. No microscopes, test tubes, rock hammers, or magnets required to investigate its phenomena. Just a keyboard.
Oh man. That's when knowing more about the tools you are using comes in handy. Kubectl has native JSONPath support [0].

Or at the very least, use structured output with "-o json" and jq [1], like they mention in the article.

I have always found that trying to parse JSON with native shell tools has been difficult and error-prone.

Real question: How would you identify and ban shell corps at scale?
Hum... Those other abstractions on that section are great and everything, but it really sucks to write them interactively.

Pipelines also lack some concept similar to exceptions, but it would also suck to handle those interactively.
I believe there are two main ways of cooling: convection and radiation. Convection requires a gas or liquid carrier to be in contact with the hot substance; it seems like it would be very difficult to get water (steam) into direct contact with the plasma to transfer the heat, and then to carry the heat away without the radioactive plasma along with it.

Radiation is a function of temperature (to the 4th power) and surface area. It seems even harder to channel the heat from the plasma to the engine this way.

So how would you do either of these 'more so'?
My goodness, people here must really not have any experience either renting or owning. As a new homeowner, it is obvious what I used to be paying for -- someone to fix my living space any time something broke without charge and someone to maintain my building and my outdoor areas.

Between my work and gmail email accounts, I don't get much spam in my inbox. I also use filters, so newsletters, emails from various systems such as build tools, github, social media, etc, go to appropriate folders.

My inbox is my to-do list. I email myself things that I need to do too.

Unlike Slack, no one on email minds if you reply back a few days later. I like that it is async medium for communication.

Honestly, I think email is great and it would take a lot for me to give it up.

Been at the broken Apple-Glass(tm) enough to know how insane their prices are. This alone is enough for me to stay away from Apple devices. I used to own some but now have switched to different bands for every piece of hardware (Android, Linux and Windows PC's etc). I can't for the life of me understand how people can support this but I guess it is me living in my hacker/geek bubble.
I used to use emacs for, well, everything, but email in particular. I've never felt more productive. So what changed?

Smartphones: with a smartphone becoming more and more of my life, I wanted my information synced across devices. In the early days of smartphones, this was challenging. It became easier to work with clients and systems that had the idea of accessing data from anywhere baked in.

Emacs threading: In an effort to keep emacs as my client, I switch from pop3 to imap, but let's be honest, it's a pain for emacs. To do it right, you need a local imap server and then sync between that and your remote imap and even then, emacs hangs as it connects and syncs new email. The lack of real multithreading for emacs really holds it back.

1. Walmart operates in many countries, plus their US only revenue might be larger than Amazon's all retail revenue. Plus Google, Apple, Microsoft, Facebook operate in nearly all countries, a much bigger number than Amazon.

2. Twitch is restricted to a niche. Facebook video, YouTube, and even TikTok all have more users.

3. This might be correct but this is a very small market. Microsoft has similar market share in Office Suits.

4. Biggest seller doesn't make a monopoly. If it did, every industry will bave a monopoly.

5. How is AWS a monopoly there, when so many competitors exist, and the likes of Google have humongous internal data centres which might be on the same scale as all of AWS.

You may remember Louis Rossmann testifying in this case. To his credit, he published this video about the different ways he was wrong. Unfortunately, you probably didn't see the retraction bc the original testimony got 13x the views. Not through any fault of Louis, simply due to how things spread online.

Wow, I did not know you could use the URL to highlight on wikipedia. Is there a way in the UI to generate that URL without having to do it manually?
The broader effect of aggressively controlling such third-party interactions is to lock-in users, and convert what one would normally think of as a “product” into something more like a “service” — which then gives the company much more power with pricing, market segmentation, etc. (including Apple care/warranties, value of returns or refurbished devices, upgrade cycle of devices, etc). Functionally, yet another way of exerting monopolistic effects.

This strategy applies beyond this particular example, and is probably one of the strong business motivations for Apple’s vertical integration.

Business-wise, this is yet another way to boost the “lifetime value” of a customer and ensure it is far more than the price of a single product, which I’m sure is a significant factor in the high valuations (and revenues) of Apple. The fact that they invest so much into marketing/advertising the Apple ecosystem as a lifestyle brand also means that they are pushed towards a business model where their customers need to have a large lifetime value to offset the customer acquisition/retention costs.
I think it’s more nuanced in reality. There are liquidity providing HFT strategies that profit off the spread - this is good for people moving big size like Vanguard. Then there are liquidity taking strategies that profit by picking off quotes in anticipation of a probable price move. I don’t see how those strategies help Vanguard. Also, most HFT firms do a mix of both types strategies...
> it's not like they risk impacting their quality reputation either since the repair shops don't advertise that they provide genuine Apple part

If the end consumer winds up confused, it still hurts Apple. That is the matter of this case. The repair shop didn’t make it clear enough that these are not genuine parts.
article explains this later; sounds like the logos are from apple-mfred parts that end up in larger (overall refurb) parts. unless you were contradicting the article's saying so, in which case "yeah probably unideal, but the lower court said he wasn't advertising them as genuine apple anyway"
It’s not about money, but about ensuring that the repair shops have up to date information and tools to execute the repairs and that they’re delivering a decent quality.
Without the certification you won’t get access to the special tools and diagnose software.
Not much. Society is paying to improve the value of the land.
This is almost nothing like the very low margin auto business. Apple makes ~35-40% margins on the devices at time of sale, and make additional profits on services. Repairs are barely profitable IIRC.
> Bed Bath & Beyond, Famous Footwear, H&M, and the Gap, AMC and Regal movie theaters, and 24 Hour Fitness gyms have all missed payments, jeopardizing the stability of their property management companies and municipal governments that rely on property taxes, The Post's Heather Long reported.

All roads lead to the Federal Reserve. Stores defaulting on rent payments starves landlords for cash. Landlords unable to service mortgages or pay taxes starves banks and state/local governments. Banks starved for money turn to the Fed for bailouts. States starved for cash turn to Washington. Washington issues bonds which the Fed buys because nobody in their right mind would buy 10 or 30 year Treasuries with the goal of holding to maturity.

The Fed's balance sheet has exploded higher (>20% GDP), with no end in sight:

https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/WALCL

Where does it all lead? There are two options:

1. Default on the national debt.

2. Currency depreciation.

The most likely outcome is (2). One way or another, the dollar is headed lower. Perversely, this could be great for stocks, bonds, and other assets nominally. The problem is the size of the dollar depreciation that would be required to bring the Fed's balance sheet back under control.

The only problem is that the dollar happens to be the world's reserve currency. As the Fed does its best to slaughter the dollar bull, every other country is printing money as fast as possible to depreciate their own currencies.

Nobody knows where this mess ends.
I think these are absolutely all things which need to be included in the (likely long) list of things to be done, but my suspicions are that the most difficult thing to address is going to be that a tremendous fraction of the police view american citizens as an enemy (And no, I don’t think that’s hyperbolic, I think these past few days demonstrate this pretty clearly.)

And I’m absolutely not discounting your thoughts, those need to be done as well.

What a fucking mess.
Not the OP, but from my perspective, encryption is helpful, but a good portion of security is anonymity, and Signal requires that you use and leak personally identifiable information to even start using it.

It also informs you when people in your contact list are using Signal. It's probably not scanning through all of the phone numbers in Signal's database locally, so it is exfiltrating your contact list as well, exposing your network.

Personally, I'd prefer a model where I am not required to place even that much trust in the messaging provider.

It feels like a huge wave just crashed, and many people standing waist-deep in the water think things are on the upswing now -- when really they're about to get sucked into a powerful undertow.

Judging by the state of the stock market, many investors seem oblivious to the magnitude of the effects of the pandemic.

The S&P 500 lost more than a third of its value in the pandemic crash. Yet the index is now two-thirds of the way back to its high point:

https://www.npr.org/2020/06/04/865117170/the-economy-is-in-t...

But look at the levels of initial jobless claims still coming in at multiples above where they should be. Look at how many businesses are still shuttered, with an uncertain H2 ahead.

Given the harsh economic reality, I'm very bearish right now. I think we're going to see another significant drop as the full effects sink in, which is what has happened in other crashes. Investors call it a dead-cat bounce. But in this case, I'm picturing a bigger animal. Hippo maybe.
Azure DevOps has the most reasonably priced Mac nodes I could find, I believe it’s £30/month/node (same pricing as their Windows and Linux nodes). Having to figure out another YAML config for CI isn’t my favourite task but it’s not too hard and we are generally pretty pleased with its performance (using it to build iOS app builds for every change and upload to AppCenter, which is a great free repository for them which hooks into Azure easily). Feel free to get in touch if you’d like more info.
Just for you I installed Chrome to check. It worked for me. I wrote a few things to check below; I suspect your problem is item 'c'.

a) Make sure Chrome has access to cameras (System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Camera > Google Chrome checked).

b) In step 6 from my comment, make sure to try "Preview Output" in OBS's Tools > NDI Output Settings, as "Main Output" requires you to start OBS streaming/recording (which you probably don't want to do).

c) After setting up that OBS setting, clicking the NDI systray icon should show a dropdown list with a single item. You actually need to click that item in the list (it will checkmark it). If you don't do this, you'll get a black screen when trying to pull from NDI.

d) I used https://webcamtests.com/ to test – maybe try that site.

Otherwise I'm sorry, I can't imagine what the problem is.
>What does monopoly have to do with market cap?

Well my point is that 50% of a 100 million USD market is different from 50% of 1 trillion USD market. On the later you don't that much market share to pull your weight on the market.

>If companies were to be broken for profits, there are so many companies ahead of Amazon.

That wouldn't work, specially with the gymnastics that's done.

>But there is no industry in which Amazon is a monopoly.

Not even AWS?
Seems to be both.
because they aren't running at cost/deficit but make actual money (profits). those would now be gone too.
Third-party repair shops working with screens and touchID/faceID sensors have an opportunity to install surveillance hardware inside iPhones that could be used by organized crime and governments to commit harm upon citizens. Denying official parts for these security-critical components to uncertified vendors would protect users from these “evil maid” threat vectors, as the certification can be used to enforce compliance with strict auditing and process controls designed to minimize the threat of harm to users.
There's a difference between emergency braking and gentle/standard braking. Emergency braking you obviously need physical brakes on every wheel. With gentle braking you can use just the drive wheels, wherever they are, since they can obviously slow the truck down just as quickly as they can speed the truck up, and generally that's all you need.
Ya, it's certainly more nuanced than I was going to get across in just a few sentences. Mainly I wanted to push back against:

Yeah, that seems like a reasonable judgement. It sounds like he was passing off non-apple parts as actual apple parts (by not properly removing the logo), which would fall under (at least) trademark law (in my layman opinion), if not fraud.

Disclaimer: I'm an Apple fan, and have previously interviewed there, but I am quite critical of many of their actions like the lockdown on iOS (although I am a huge fan of the mandatory sandboxing)
How do you recruit users? Do you pay them?
I wonder if they would include Germans ZDF and similar which are state payed, but at the same time _not_ state controlled.

(Through this doesn't meant they are not biased, not that there are no people with influence which are members of some party of the many parties in Germany which have influence to some of them).

What if they want to change that and make massive profits on repairs as well? You can't do that if you have competitors undercutting you. Once they are gone you can charge what you want.
The distinctions between 'socialist', 'anarchist', 'communist', 'libertarian', and then 'objectivist' (Randian) and probably others are too blurry when considering it across time and geography; rather than most often as names of politically parties, basically "brands".

I think libertarianism had been defined in opposition to non-democratic regimes; then after the fall of feudalism it continued to be used by socialism/anarchism/communism.

I think the US Libertarian Party's name serves (or served) mostly as a rebranding of anarchism, but I am not sure about the origins of that party, anybody more knowledgeable please join in. An interesting note about them is that both Ayn Rand and Frank Zappa dismissed them as closet anarchists.

I am also interested in when did the influx of the right wing into "anarchism" or "libertarianism" happen? Maybe it has something to do with Lenin&co.'s and later Stalin's suppression of anarchism, and even later the Cold war propaganda?

Also, who invented the weird term 'anarcho-capitalist'?
Wrote a separate comment about this, but Azure DevOps seemed to be quite a bit cheaper for Mac nodes than GH Actions. Strange as they are presumably using Azure under the hood!
That doesn't help the mortgage holders, though...

It seems to me that something like the exhaustion doctrine[1] should be made to apply here (but presumably doesn't in Norway). Once a part is legally sold, even if as part of a bigger product, IP law should not be able to be used to prevent the buyer from doing what they want with the part, including using it in a different product that is then sold as a refurbishment part. The only exception should be to prevent others from being misled about the origin of the product; that doesn't appear to have been happening here.

There's space for everybody. I do programming ( not full time) at work: usually it's simple queries against the database and business logic around the returned collection. Sometimes it's a bit more complicated and then I have to do an integration with an external system. Would I be able to write some traffic optimization algorithm for Netflix? Not a chance. Would I be able to help an average SMB by automating some of their processes? Absolutely. Someone is sitting in a fancy office on the 50th floor in Manhattan writing some heavily optimized code for a bank making $1M/year, while some other is doing simple PHP plugins for WordPress in some sweatshop. Both are called programmers. Same with bankers: one you meet at your local bank branch who doesn't even know what nostro account is, while other is doing some M&A trying to pull billion dollar companies together.
