Isn't that the whole point of VC fueled super-startups / unicorns?

To basically become some kind of monopolistic entity, or at very least part of an oligopoly with unspoken price fixing rules, and then micromanage your customers and contributors. Not a single penny goes unchecked for - or untouched, for that mater.

Now - as for Apple, I figure they'll argue that the system they're enforcing is good for the end-user, as it'll keep their own system robust, and probably weed out the low-quality stuff - scammers, even.

But it sure reeks of the same monopolistic behavior, that comes in many different shapes and forms.

You are right that increased competition would probably lower the costs, but I'm not sure how Apple, Google, etc. would open the floodgates to third-party marketplaces on their platforms. EVEN with legal papers saying they'll have to do so.
That's wahat I did for a while, but I heard Aegis takes security more seriously than AndOTP, so I use that now (both are available on F-droid).

AndOTP has some support for SteamGuard (though not everything), which I can't use since I refuse any proprietary app on my phone.

I wish websites supported PAKE, Fido U2F, Webauthn, TOTP and Client certs across the board, but that's probably a pipe dream :)
I've heard this rebuttal a few times, that western values try to suppress emotions, and anger is sometimes good. Eliezer makes this point too. I'm still not sure I fully understand it.

The anger I feel when I'm cut off in traffic is distinct enough from the anger that I feel at oppression or injustice to really deserve its own label. Like, anger1 and anger2.

Since they feel so different, I have slightly different thoughts about each.

I never want to drive with anger1 instead of safety. Driving with anger, or "road rage," is not an interesting value-neutral way to experience the world.

I think that driving anger is a distinct emotion that is always unhealthy and just happens to share the name "angry" with other emotions because of superficial similarities. People will probably say that's just a different context, I think that's overgeneralizing, but even in other contexts I worry about the call to set aside rationality. (Instead of anger1 and anger2 you could call one rage and the other indignation.)

When I'm angry ("angry2") about senseless human suffering, I agree it should move people, people should not just tune out. But that seems like a straw man of the rationalist approach. There too I'd rather channel that feeling into a thought process that maximizes my impact, rather than just attempt to satisfy the emotional call to yell or cry or punch a wall. Those may be important therapeutic responses, but if you can feel satisfaction by just getting to work to try to correct the injustice, that would be better.

I'm rarely physically threatened, but my system still occasionally floods me with fight or flight adrenaline. What's so wrong about saying that's a quirk of evolution, and thoughtful responses are going to leave me better off, absent some weird fringe scenarios?

I've heard the opposite perspective from people smarter and calmer than me though, so maybe I'm wrong and it just hasn't clicked for me yet.

Tiny interface was quite nice, and not that small, considering it was built during the age of 800x600 or 1024x720 resolutions.

Grand jumps in capability rarely (if ever) happen in the real world.

Gradual change can feel like a capitulation, but it's often the safest and best overall.

If you try to force huge change and fail or things go wrong or the system is deficient in some way, there can be a big backlash.

The CO2 released in production and deployment of solar cells is regrettable, but as soon as that solar cell comes online it starts displacing fossil fuel.

Pinning the problems of rape on meditation is absurd.

If meditation causes Mary to freak out and the rapes to by discovered, that's a pretty huge win for Mary.

This really surprises me - looking down the THE and QS global rankings, I know that at least all the universities outside the Far East teach compilers. I guess you're not saying which university you're at to keep it anonymous, but I'd be interested to hear which it was.
I am not surprised about the effort it took to find a copy of Ritchie's dissertation. Dissertations tend to be difficult to find if they are not already listed on WorldCat or in ProQuest. But the museum used the best method in this case: talk to people close to people who had a copy at one point. In my experience when all else fails, this strategy is the primary one that ends up working. It doesn't work all the time, and I still am looking for a few "ancient" technical reports despite some sustained effort on my part, but I have been able to find several documents/reports just by asking the right people.

Does anybody else have similar experiences? I'm interested if there are other avenues that somebody could try as well.
One is called rage. The other repressed internal rage.

You shouldn't be angry at either. For the first issue accept it. The second do something about it.
'run a Java program without an IDE' is not a learning outcome of a computer science degree, though.
I don't think this is the "correct" path. Google should be more open to requests, and try to be more understanding on users' requests.

Anyway, as I wrote in another comment the person behind this is either a normal person using his home address or someone working for another company located at that address.

This means that Google has assigned the ownership to him already. I couldn't find any way for requesting the ownership to the entry, but only a "ask the owner access to this entry" page.

Also, a business might exists in that address, but it's certainly not called like my blog.

The App Store doesn't do that or else Xcodeghost would never have happened. If you mean at a high level that only certain categories of apps are allowed to ask for certain permissions, the Google Play Store does that too.

Self-development in general is a very efficent excuse to avoid taking action.

You can certainly use "meditation" to work on yourself forever, in preparation for doing things, and never, ever, actually do anything.

But in itself, it's not the nature of meditation.

In a way, meditation share similarities with physical exercice.

Doing your morning run doesn't make you less fit to take action, make a plan or to apply critical thinking. I would say it's the opposite.

A lot of my most productive periods in my life are right after meditation retreats.

During those times, I use GTD a lot, to support my efforts. Writting, descripting, listing causes and consequences are in no way in competition with meditation.

To be frank, I don't know what could be in competition with meditation. It's pretty much orthogonal to everything by essence.
If you used a dictionary of 100 words, you would get a prefix collision every 100 commits, i.e., within days or weeks for even moderately busy projects. Using a larger list would just shift the problem by a bit. You could use tuples of words (like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What3words for example) to avoid the problem. But then you'd be much longer than current Git hash prefixes.

And why? What would be the use? The two things I do with Git hashes: (a) copy and paste, for searching for something; (b) occasionally visually comparing hashes. Copy and paste works well, in fact in pretty much any terminal or other tool double click will select the whole hash, which wouldn't be as simple if the hash were multiple words with separators. Visual comparison might be marginally easier with familiar words, but for me it's a niche use case, so I don't think optimizing for it would be useful.
That's an interesting perspective and I think I mostly agree. The way I think about it is that anger is helpful for setting goals ("angry2" in your formulation). But it clouds the mind and is unhelpful for forming strategy and action, which relates more to "angry1." For example, reading something hateful online activates both "angry1" and "angry2" but responding in the moment uses "angry1" and is mostly unhelpful for forming a rebuttal that helps move hearts and minds.

Weird article. It's thesis is that kids have some problems that mindfulness doesn't solve. Like, OK, that's obvious. Those problems should be addressed.

Some aerospace applications required wire wrap for a long while because of its better vibration resistance vs solder. There were square profile bonding posts around which wire was tightly wound for a half dozen turns or so. The sharp edges of the post would thus make 24 points of contact, also biting through surface oxidation.
Ask HN: Voice and video with non-technical friends and family (repost)
I'd really like to get friends and family off Facebook, but one of the things they use it for is calling people, both voice and video.

So I'm looking for a replacement. Ideally whatever we use would run on both phones and laptops/desktops, preferably with a light-weight client. We would need audio, video, and screen-sharing would be useful. Ideally it would be P2P, and not controlled by a single entity.

Privacy is a concern as a general principle, and I'd like to be able to avoid joining another "community".

My betting is that such a thing doesn't exist, but I'd be interested to know what trade-offs people think are available and accessible for non-technical people. Matrix was one option, but I've heard that some people find it difficult to impossible to get audio and video working. Another option might be Tox, so I'd be interested in hearing of people's experience with that.

But all comments, suggestions, and thoughts welcome. Thanks.

Forcing someone to sit and be mindful is incredibly offensive to the idea of mindfulness. Goes to show that whatever good thing mandatory schooling touches, it perverts or corrupts. They should just stick to sciences.

Well of course in addition to free speech the 1st amendment includes other rights such as freedom of religion (Separation of church and state), freedom of the press, right to assemble and right to petition the government for grievances. In its plain wording “the government shall make no law...prohibiting free speech...” but people get hung up on that when we know government can in fact pass all sorts of laws that limit free speech and in my experience I can get even the most die hard “absolutists” To agree certain speech should be illegal (this typically stems from the fact people don’t understand what “speech” is from a legal context).

I stand by what I said, people should read the case law.

While you say the danger is young people being emotional in their bubble, I think you will find every generation says something similar about the next generation.

Why I encourage people to read the case law is because it provides historical context for these rights and how the law is actually applied. I think one of the biggest dangers, is failure to educate ourselves especially learn our own history (history of our laws or otherwise). The point of studying history is so we can hopefully avoid the mistakes of our past...yet as history suggests we will continue to neglect history and make the exact same mistakes.
How Much Is a Single Download Worth to a Mobile Casino Game?
So 2 Powerwalls should cover me. That’s 27kWh but only 14kWac peak. It’s the peak that’s really the issue. If I’m running a furnace and my stove, it may go over.

But currently 2 PW is $17,000 with 10 year warranty. That’s $142/mo. If they work for 20 years, that’s half. Enphase is coming out with its own system.

Anyways, it already makes sense but for peak usage. I only use 15kWh max a night but my peak can be up to 20kWac for a few minutes at a time.

If battery makers can increase peak of home stationary batteries - Tesla cars peak much higher, like 400kW - and Tesla’s battery costs are under $100/kWh, the end is nigh for electric utilities. They need to start stringing fiber.

End is even closer if Tesla enables vehicle2grid soon.

I'm very skeptical about QUIC/"HTTP3". TCP works extremely well already. Yes, one can do kind of better for some particular workloads but I have yet to see a successful implementation that goes ahead of TCP.

Take a Remote Desktop protocol used in Microsoft Windows. It can work over TCP but recent revisions tend to automatically switch to UDP. And know what? They are not reliable to the point that customers have to turn the UDP layer off. TCP gives a slightly worse latency but it is much more reliable and thus usable. Thanks there is a Group Policy for that.

I'm not even talking about Google as a company who constantly tries to attack the network infrastructure with its variant of EEE (Embrace, Extend and Extinguish). What's the end game? The crippled protocols worldwide imposed by the ad casino company? No, thank you. Internet must remain free of all of that.
I agree that this is better, it punishes Google's reputation as well.
They need a bug bounty like program (but non security related) to report these sorts of things. This could have cost them a lot of money.
Is it not? If the programme teaches Java, "learning how to compile and execute Java programs" would surely be one of the top priorities of such a course.
If you go out on the street to give homeless people food but your main motivation for doing it is so you can take a quick selfie for some feel-good reactions on instagram and facebook, you're definitely virtue signalling in a particularly irritating way...... But, those homeless people still got some food as a result, and somewhere else, someone else might see your posts and decide to do the same thing (with or without selfie, depending on how much of a self absorbed ass they are) Either way, the net result is that now more people are giving food to the needy in this simple example. A net benefit is produced by self absorbed behavior.

When virtue signalling can become dangerous however is in situations where something based on a mistaken notion of doing good (when in reality it does more harm) becomes a fad and people who virtue-signal keep promoting it into wider popularity.
Indeed.

And if the teaching frees the student from that idea, then we can see that as an opportunity to give it a try.

But I can see how it could do harm if the teaching is also twisted to the point that it reinforces that idea.

Going mainstream almost always implies loosing something important in the process. It's hard to condence years of teaching in a few hours.
I should have phrased it like: "by default neo.mjs is using global listeners" => you can add local listeners as well if you want to.

regarding safari:
https://caniuse.com/#search=worker

workers are supported, so the dist versions not using shared workers can run there already.

2 missing items on the webkit side:

1) adding support for shared workers (they dropped the development on those, but recently put it into "inRadar" again. So there is hope.

2) adding support for JS modules inside the worker scope. missing in FF as well. not too bad, since it is good enough in case 1 browser can do it (chrome) so that the dev mode can run there. the dist versions will run in FF, safari & chrome, since webpack is replacing all import statements, so that there are no real JS modules.

to fully support mobile, neo.mjs still needs to support touch events (similar to hammer js). on the todo list.
Its the coercive element that is objectionable. They go to extreme lengths to keep their market closed, which is obviously not for your benefit but so they can do this thing. Not because a free market leads folks to adopt the Apple marketplace, because there is no choice.

The lengths folks go to apologize for Apples essential extortion is amazing.

This is backwards. You may as well tell people not to be hungry.
From the article, I wonder just who these mindfulness teachers are? I had to spend hundreds of hours of practice and multiple teachers to unlock a few ‘treasures’ of meditation... and that was with teachers who weren’t laying a thick amount of judge mental indoctrination.

I absolutely believe the kid’s responses to the program, and I’m afraid this experience will turn them off for life, like so many do with a bad year of math. Nevertheless, I think exposing kids to mindfulness is worthwhile.

Looks like a bank.

It was (is?) common practice to have a visual keyboard to enter the password in extremely sensitive applications like banking. This prevents the password from being captured by keyloggers and from being saved by the browser, because malware automatically extract and collect these, which was a very real issue with banking.
I'm not sure we'll ever see a full xcode release for iPad unless something drastic happens with the way mobile operating systems work. On your desktop you are king, you have the freedom to delete most every file or install any utility to any directory. Apple does not want you to have that autonomy on your devices and made sure from the start that you are unable to do anything unless they approve. I just don't see a marriage between these two worlds anytime soon.
Have you tried marking the listing as "Spam, fake, or offensive"? (Under the "Mark as close or remove" menu). Those are treated specially, they don't go to the owner.

How is it "doubling down", they could exist side by side. Your comment kind-of shows the mentality I've seen with the IPFS project before. The IPFS project has doubled down on it's effort of being more "advanced", "innovative" and "efficient" than BitTorrent, losing what actually makes people like torrents and distributed systems.

Unfortunately right now the IPFS project is totally ignoring that it's effectively nothing and takes nothing to the next level. I think what I mentioned before, is the root cause. Zero ounce of compatibility with the existing BT swarm. It is simply a massive amount of wasted potential to ignore the thousands of terabytes of content the torrent system hosts, the work and services provided and spent for the ecosystem. So much could be done that would strengthen both systems at the same time. Just from the IPFS point of view we could right now have embedded resources from torrents, tens of different clients available that could just be CDNs, existing seedboxes strengthening both swarms and probably much more.

That would be the mix of torrents and web people want, not what IPFS is currently. IPFS is basically reinventing the wheel, but throwing out the round part.

Maybe the IPFS project should channel more work on building next to giants rather than doubling down and throwing away everything BT has to offer?
