If you look at it Hey did not use in App Purchase, which is important from the perspective of the user. If I purchase a subscription then I should be able to unsubscribe the purchase of subscription from the app, also it is to make sure the app doesn't continue to bill the user even if the subscription is disabled. The app could be some remote offshore rogue company which continues to charge you even when you disabled the subscription. Also it could go ahead a charge for 12 month subscription when you only asked for 1. In app purchases have to be controlled for better user experience and consumer protection. There is a reason why there are tons of scam apps on Android but not on iOS.
The platform is completely locked down and the users are on the platform. Unless you want to loose a big part of the market after Apple banned you for dissenting, you keep quiet, look the other way and praise Apple and his holiness the Jobs for your daily bread from the Apple kitchen.
I think it's fine that Apple controls its own store. However, then consumers should be able to use a different store. Controlling the single store with an iron fist will soon lead to an antitrust, I hope.
If it is a faux-pas, an immediate excuss is the solution. At least for mature people. There is no explicit racism involved in the CEO example, as long as you treated both persons decently and politely and only misjudged the ranks.

The sex offender thing looks a lot like a straw man argument, so. When I think about racists, yes KK Nazis and so on come to mind. But more often I think about the daily, systematic racism white folks show towars people of colour, migrants, other religions. More often than not accompanied by discriminating women and the LGBTQ community.
I think what will make the most difference in the long term is using GNU Guile Scheme as language for package definitions. I think it is a brilliant choice to use a mature and popular language which supports functional programming very well. The fact that Scheme is minimalist and easy to learn will without doubt help attracting contributors in the future, and this in turn will be decisive for driving adoption in the long term.

Another feature that is very nice is that there is no difference between a package definition in a local development environment, and a definition in the official channel. What you put together as a build recipe of a tool that is useful for your quirky local project will also work as part of the distribution.
And we will bribe the officials. Lobby I mean, lobby.

Nope, still repulsive forces. Think about it - two balls head towards each other, collide, and move away from each other, having experienced a repulsive force. Reverse time, and it looks exactly the same.

Or more mathematically, force is measured in Newtons, which is kg * m / s / s. Reverse the sign of the seconds part of that, and, oh, it's squared so it ends up being exactly the same.

Since you say you worked at Google, are you willing to put your money where your mouth is and prove that they manipulated search results to benefit one campaign over another? That could run afoul of election laws, so I hope you realize you have a legal duty to report that thing. Publicly.

Re: the ‘democratisation of surveillance’: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sousveillance
The software job market is "interesting". You have companies complaining about it being hard to find developers. Then they pass on really good ones. I think one reason is that these companies started in a time where it was easy to find developers and developers was basically working for free as it was also their hobby.

I think (disclaimer: not a language expert, don't know Rust, etc) that it's a tradeoff between verbose and repeated but readable and simple code, vs generic reusable but more difficult code. In Go you can take most code at face value, with generics you have to keep use cases and possible types into consideration.

I was actually expecting that the next major Bootstrap version would come out way later and fully embrace the CSS grid. But I suppose they are choosing a more gradual adoption and testing of waters to stay compatible with B4 websites.
No you can't. If you do that then Apple review hammer will be wielded and you will end up in the same place.

This is interesting when it comes to being able to spot a Photoshop. But this seems to be about more than that. It seems to be about casting shame on to Victoria's Secret for using Photoshop. Why is that? They are selling a dress and want to show it in the best light. Is the author claiming false advertising? The model is being compensated (probably handsomely) for the use of her image. She should consider herself lucky that Photoshop exists because she's clearly not exactly what they want, but close enough.
Longer term. Immediately immigration is literally impossible with borders closed. And no, you can't solve every problem with immigration, I just wouldn't be worried about Canada 5 years from now and one of the reasons is it'll probably be able to afford some of the best talent on the planet, if it invests well.
Well yeah I think even I bought into it at some point. The line would go "as long as our debt to GDP ratio stays relatively steady, we'll be ok"...but what happens if another great depression happens and the growth dips 10-15% and flat lines from there? Then your debt will grow faster than your GDP and eventually it will crush the economy. All the uncomfortable conversations about complex trade-offs and budget cuts have got to occur and nobody is wanting to have that convo.

I think it started in the 60s with the Vietnam War, the Space program and Johnson's great society programs. And then Nixon took us off the gold peg, and we were free to print as much as we wanted.

MMT is pretty scary to me. It's never really been tested long term at scale and mainly exists as a theory. But I know that's the end game for the Fed and that's the trajectory we're on.
Both movements propose very concrete solutions for the respective problems. Both problem statements are also very clear to begin with.

And there seem to be quite a lot of people willing to implement said solutions.
IMO this problem calls for a technical solution, not an organizational one.

It should be required, by law, for platforms this widespread to allow installing apps without platform owner involvement. Let there be many scary warnings like there actually are on Android when you install an apk file, but it has to be possible. It's the only way. Adding more bureaucracy on top of existing bureaucracy won't help much because you'll still have to play by the platform owners' arbitrary nonsense rules.
> No idea what you're talking about.

After some hours (10 ? 20?) of play on a few intensive games, it was slowing down and/or becoming glitchy. The fan would not ramp up so it didn't seem to be temperature.

I thought it was an isolated issue until a saw a few streamers hit the same kind of issue and casually explain they forgot to reboot their switch.

> It's been three years.

I get your point. I kinda gave up on expecting shiny revolutionary features, or comparing to the PS or Xbox.

My angle on it is pretty similar to when the iPhone came out. There was no copy and paste, multi-tasking and was arguably slow for a lot of things, but the pros outweighed the cons, and we knew Apple wouldn't be doing any big leaps any day soon.

I'm still frustrated by iOS by the way, but still think it's worth it.

Nintendo's Switch is at that place for me at this point. I'll buy a PS5 anyway, and I'll be happy if Nintendo continues to bring new games and paradigms on the table that the other makers are not touching.
Also owned by Microsoft.

I mean, I get the "new" Microsoft. And I get that this is mostly a street-cred move by them, and they'll try to not mess it up by interfering with it. But still. That's now. What happens when the next shake-up comes and there's a push by the accountants to make money off everything, that's the important bit.

It's like Atlassian taking over Trello. They'll mess it up, it's just a matter of when not if.
> I really do want to do this, precisely because the software in the repo is often out of date,

That depends much on the distribution you use (if recentness is most important, why do you don't use Arch), and being out of date is definitely not the case for Guix System:

Sp, why are you bringing an argument that does not apply to Guix?
Words meaning depend on context. A Zen "Master" does not imply a Zen "Slave", for example. People should look at context first before applying judgement on the meaning of words.

Qualcomm SFE has been replaced in OpenWRT with the more generic "flow offload", on an R7800 you can get gigabit speeds lan to wan.

Wireless is still lagging as the IPQ8064 has two NSS packet processing cores which, amongst other things, also accelerate crypto, including WPA.

I've got an R7800 running router duties on OpenWRT and then a Netgear Orbi RBK50 set running in AP mode which works well for my needs.

There IS a community effort to port the NSS acceleration (which accelerates qdisc and therefore traffic shaping with SQM) from the QSDK sources, but it's slow going.
Does anybody have a price comparison between this and storing stuff in S3 bucket and loading it all the times?
> I strongly believe if you buy a device, you should own that device and be in control of what you put on that device.

Then don't buy Apple?

The fact is that it costs money to develop and maintain the OS on the phone, and that money has to come from somewhere. Apple pays for this maintenance by charging a tax on app developers that use their ecosystem; Google pays for it by spying on you.

Right now, we can both choose: You can buy a phone that pays for the software by spying on you, I can buy a phone that pays for the software by charging a toll for applications.

You haven't explicitly advocated using monopoly sanctions to make Apple's business model illegal, but lots of people have. If those efforts are successful, that will remove my choice to pay more for no spying.
It's funny how there is this "relative scale of hipsterism" and "No True Scottsman" applied to crypto currency projects.

Yes, layer-2 solutions amount to basically "running a tab". So what? Channel settlements are still happening on chain, and no layer-2 project can create/alter tokens on its own. Equating scammy ICOs with serious projects and dismissing it all with "a valueless and fraudulent solution" is as simplistic and reductionist as saying that "banks and credit card companies only use funny money".

For OP's use case, "running a tab" is exactly what is needed. It is easy for them to keep their accounting, it saves them money and operational costs and it avoids third-parties that the group do not trust. It facilitates economic activity. Why do you feel the need of pissing on it?
> I wouldn’t be opposed to ... DMs.

They actually had these!

I used it occasionally. It was useful. They obviously removed it. Imagine being able to message anyone on the platform about their repo or code. Imagine it being easy to find how to contact someone. Now you have to rely on the user adding public contact information on their profile which is a) not required and b) not validated.
If true, it says a lot more about the men than anything else.

Both those you label as your "immigrants" and your "expats" ofter entertain the notion that they will eventuelly move back, but in reality often they don't.

Meanwhile, the "expat" gets a free pass for being a general douche.
I think that is one of the reasons why in Germany a registered association named "Zwiebelfreunde e.V." (can be translated to "Onion friends") was founded.

By this it is a legal entity and legal trouble can be handled better than if its against a person but the members of the board still gets trouble with the law. Not long ago they were raided because they were treated as witnesses in a case.
(Yes, in Germany even as a witness you can be raided ...)
But that feature exists since forever. It's a useful one.

Ofcourse it is reasonable Apple has to employ real developers to maintain the App Store and Data centers. Also if your app is doing good Apple promotes and advertises your app highlight them on picks etc. from time to time all of that takes time and money.
If anybody ever thought of fun while using git, I would probably think that that person is a masochist. It's a tool for work.

It's actually a shame that git won over all the other DVS, because I used to find mercurial much more approachable and a lot easier to use. Mercurial maybe could be called fun, but definitely not git.
To may expand on the OP:

As someone who is now in kind of a dysfunctional organization, I'm very thankful for people who give honest feedback to management. If everybody who leaves just says "It's not you, it's me!", how can management ever make informed decisions about changing processes and decision-making?
OTOH I understand people's and my own urge to just play it nice, so people who will soon become just nothing more than entries in a list of contacts do not despise you. Especially if the scene of the city you live in is kinda small.

There's probably a middle ground here: give constructive feedback withouth dragging others through the mud. But it's hard to hit this middle ground in an exit interview that is scheduled on short notice. So what I'm doing right now, is prepping myself.
> Imagine you have a family and you lose your job. If you have savings for a couple of years, you can take it easy for a while and then go look for a job and find one 6 months later. Was anything other than your ego bruised by the loss of the job? No, not really.

I lost my job in Germany and got one year of unemployment benefits, no savings needed. Min wage workers have no way to build 6 months of emergency fund and keep the "dignity" you're referencing in later post. If on top of that they also have to build their own medical insurance and retirement fund it's game over from day 1.

> Why doesn't this analogy translate to what's happening with covid?

It's the same thing as unemployment benefits, insurances, &c. in the end, money going where it's needed* to avoid people losing everything to events out of their control. (*which hopefully is small/medium sized businesse, not mega corps avoiding paying tax whenever they can but that's another issue)

> people need a reality check and get back to living a simpler life with less shit being bought and sold all the time.

That's for sure, sadly it doesn't look like we're going in that direction. I'm personally appalled at how some people spend their money but it's part of the game
For Apple the math is simple. We should take "apple-tax" as much as we can, for as long as we can.
It's a lot of money and it doesn't make sense for them to give it away until they have to. Nobody knows if they will remain dominant 10 years from now. So there is no point to be nice today when you have a monopoly.

Then there are some services with enough leverage that it makes sense for Apple not ask them for Apple Tax. It also saves more time for Apple to keep taking this tax from others that don't have leverage to fight back.

> why must there be a middle man between the developer and user, why must there be a separate middleman for every repo,

Guix allows you to easily write own package definitions which are treated as part of the whole system. If you submit them and they are accepted, they simply become part of Guix.

> why must said repo prevent me from installing older versions,

Precisely this is a case that Guix solves extremely well: One can start environments with specific versions of packages, like in Pyhon's virtualenv.

And by the way, the complexity is caused by the issue that many many components need to fit together. That does not happen by chance, it is a massive amount of work to make it fit in a manageable way, and check that it works. That's what distributions do.

Again, though, viraptor was talking about the APIs used in C programming, not what one has in shell script programming.

When it comes to shell script programming, the obvious mechanism has already existed in FreeBSD for quite a while now. It's vis (vis(1), unvis(1), vis(3)). I have an alternative to ps that vis-encodes the fields in its output, and from experience most and possibly all of the well-known and widely-documented (by Greg Wooledge and others) pitfalls that are warned about do indeed go away with simple application of vis encoding.

It does the same on Linux-based operating systems, too, although one has to go and get an unvis tool from somewhere. Yes, the code to read the process table on Linux in the first place does indeed involve decoding human-readable strings from stat files into machine form. (-:

I'm not sure Github stars were/are ever an indicator of "good quality" or even "interesting".

And I think the Web Development community could do with a decent break from "new" as well. What would be great is if we could just prune some of the gajillion frameworks and libraries already out there, and spend some time to make the ones we keep decently robust and elegant.
