> Maybe “Talent” (タレント) in the Japanese meaning of the word, maybe.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarento

> Tarento (タレント) are celebrities who regularly appear in mass media in Japan, especially television. The term is a gairaigo word – a foreign language loanword – derived from the English word talent (Japanese does not distinguish /l/ and /r/ sounds), and has a connotation of "famous for being famous".
Something for nothing is exactly what we are guilty of. It happens when we get a product cheaper because companies generally don't have to pay to rebuild damaged ecosystems. It happens when we get clothes made by sweatshop labor, and don't have to consider the effect of throwing those clothes away when we take them to Goodwill. Take a hard look at exactly who is getting something for nothing. People wealthier than what is reasonable compensation for their effort are the ones getting something for nothing.
As always, with all these things, there's a non-zero chance that I've mis-spoken myself somewhere. I'm going to "think out loud" on this so people can follow the thought processes.

> I read it the other way:

OK ...

> all CNF instances can be rewritten as regexp + backreferences,

By CNF you are referring to instances of the SAT problem. So yes, if you have an instance of the SAT problem, it can be re-written as an instance of regex+backtrack.

> meaning re + backreferences are at least as general that SAT,

Yes, the regex+backtrack problem is at least as hard as the SAT problem.

> ... not at most as.

Where did I say that? Here's a stripped-down summary of my comment:

* SAT is NP-Hard.

* Now someone has shown that they can solve SAT problems by using regex+backtrack. (That's the linked article)

* Thus regex+backtrack is at least as hard as every NP problem.

* SAT is NP, so it's NPC

* regex+backtrack can be seen to be in NP.

* So regex-backtrack is NPC.

So rewording that:

* The linked article shows regex+backtrack >= SAT.

* Independently we observe that checking an alleged regex+backtrack solution is a polynomial task, therefore regex+backtrack is in NP.

* SAT is in NPC, therefore regex+backtrack <= SAT (because regex+backtrack is in NP).

* Thus regex+backtrack = SAT (for some definition of "=")

So, I think you must have misread something ... I think everything I've written is correct as stands.
And about 30% of software devs, according to Stack Overflow.
I heard an anecdote on a podcast about Donald Sutherland [1] who has done both high profile and really steady acting work for going on 50 years got done with his last scene and then said: "Well, that may be my last job. I might never work again."

Even established actors are in a fairly fragile position with delays, weird hollywood accounting, and the inherent "gig" nature of their work playing havoc with their salaries.

I can imagine Cameo seems like incredibly easy and steady money (even pre Covid) comparatively.

Commenters here seem dubious. I’ll take the contra-position. This feels to me like it’s going to be great; a big win for consumers and developers.

Current A12z chips are highly performant; Apple is roughly one chip cycle ahead on perfomance/watt from any other manufacturer. I presume their consumer hardware will launch with an A13Z, or maybe an A14 type chip.

Apple has consistently shipped new chip designs on time; Intel’s thrashing has cost them at least two significant update cycles on the macbook line in the last six years. Search this fine site for complaints about how new mac laptops don’t have real performance benefits over old ones —- those complaints are 100% down to being saddled with Intel.

Apple has a functional corporate culture that ships; adding complete control of the hardware stack in is going to make for better products, full stop.

Apple has to pay Intel and AMD profit margins for their mac systems. They are going to be able to put this margin back into a combination of profit and tech budget as they choose. Early days they are likely to plow all this back into performance, a win for consumers.

So, I’m predicting an MBP 13 - 16 range with an extra three hours of battery life+, and 20-30% faster. Alternately a Macbook Air type with 16 hours plus strong 4k performance. You’re not going to want an Intel mac even as of January of 2021, unless you have a very unusual set of requirements.

I think they may also start making a real push on the ML side in the next year, which will be very interesting; it’s exciting to imagine what Apple’s fully vertically integrated company could do controlling hardware, OS and ML stack.

One interesting question I think is outstanding - from parsing the video carefully, it seems to me that devs are going to want ARM linux virtualized, vs AMD64. I’m not highly conversant with ARM linux, but in my mind I imagine it’s still largely a second class citizen — I wonder if systems developers will get on board, deal with slower / higher battery draw intel virtualization, or move on from Apple.

Languages like Go with supremely simple cross architecture support might get a boost here. Rust seems behind on ARM, for instance; I bet that will change in the next year or two. I don’t imagine that developing Intel server binaries on an ARM laptop with Rust will be pleasant.
For me back when I had time as a kid I loved tinkering. Now it's work. The less time I spend on my screen/dealing with tech the happier I am. I'm big on convenience, and also don't do such specific stuff where I need a windows setup. I've had my macbook since 2015 and it hasn't died on me yet or had a single problem and still runs blender and vim and whatever else just fine. The $2k I spent on it 5 years ago is already back in my pocket just by not wasting time on anything.

Something like text syncing between my phone and computer is huge. I type much faster at my PC and its easier to navigate, so as a result I pretty much never use my phone. All I want are some photos, text sync, and access to good apps.

If I ever get a new phone I just find the cheapest iphone 7 or 8 via orchard instead of dropping 1-1.5k on a 'new iphone'. Everything works perfectly on my 7, still buttery smooth.
https://stripe.com/docs/payments/checkout/accept-a-payment

You do realize that only steps 1 to 5 are necessary to take in payments? If that's the scale you're on, you're done. Step 5 is the only one with code, and I didn't count but it looks like 7 to me without comments.

Of course, if you require integration on your backend, you must write code. I don't understand what you're expecting. Stripe can't modify your code base to receive payment confirmation for you. That's just not possible lol.
@AaronFriel try deleting your cookies for the website and see if that resolves it. I recall someone at GitLab having that problem the other day and think I recall that clearing their cookies fixed the issue for them. Either way I'll notify our marketing website team to have a look at this.
It looks like it's more tailored for lifestyle use. No big deal for a lot of people but Windows/WSL or Linux by itself feel like they will have more developer appeal if this direction continues.
Yeah, I've seen a few. Some just read your words staring straight into the camera and some have fun with it.

The last one I saw, my friend said, "please wish my husband a happy father's day". She sent it to the actor who plays his favorite character on his favorite show.

The actor turned that prompt into a 30 second in-character monologue that was just brilliant. It was totally worth the cost just for the entertainment value to both him and the rest of us (she shared it on Facebook for us).
GitHub Is Down
github.com is intermittently not resolving in DNS.

github.com's NS records say nsone.net and AWS are authoritative for it. However, all of the authoritative nsone.net servers are answering queries for github.com with no A records. The AWS DNS servers are responding with A records as normal.

Try for yourself with `dig github.com NS`, and then `dig github.com @dns1.p08.nsone.net.` (or any of the other nsone.net servers).

githubstatus.com reports all is operational.

Didn't experience this problem much.

If not found on any tracker, such a material is probably too rare for anyone to care about. Even with some monetization model in place, it would be unrealistic to keep all sorts of "rare" materials in the world to make $1 from a random stranger coming once a year.

Anyway, I would't pay $1

My company also rushed to reopen our home office today. I and most my team are not located there so we continue to work remotely. But many of my co-workers were puzzled by the rush to get people back in the office after 3 months of working remotely quite effectively. There was also some confusion over who was required to return to the office when.

After I found out masks were optional in the office late last week, I sent a message to the executive I report to this weekend outlining my concerns about this and a couple other things. Some policy adjustments were announced this morning! So sometimes the system does work.

I also made it very clear to my team that I was recommending they continue to work from home. I communicated to them that they were not going to impress me with their courage or dedication to the company if they went back into the office. They will impress me by continuing to do good work and remaining safe.

My last job was at a university so I know how things tend to operate in higher education. Best of luck. If I were working at your institution, I would be grateful to know people like you were speaking up.
I think its less that "remote workers need fewer bosses" and more that "remote work is illustrating that the number of bosses we have is not necessary"

Many of them just don't have things to do when everyone is remote, and yet the work is still getting done.
Shadow of the Tomb Raider is a PS4/XB1 game, not a PS360 game.

Edit 2: Please disregard my first edit, below—I was right the first time, then I got the games mixed up.

Edit 1: Oh wait, I forgot, SotTR actually did have an Xbox 360 port! It was one of the last big titles to have one. I think what they showed on screen looked better than the 360 version though, although it's admittedly hard to tell on a stream.
My brain skipped over that part apparently. It is interesting that they are calling out virtualization improvements separately though.

Is the "US owned" clarification to exclude Global Foundries' New York fab? :D

Maybe half of them.

Fabricating others' designs like TSMC?

But also, Intel isn't going away any time soon, just not being a monopoly anymore.

Honestly, that would be a damn good start. Just the other day I took a look at a job posting here on HN. It was nothing more than the company logo and the text of the rec.

What’s wrong with 1984 is people sign up for a private service, post something against the ToS, get their account banned by a volunteer user-moderator, then call it “punishment” and cite 1984 as if “piss off, troll” from JimBob moderator of /r/WhippetFanciers is exactly the same as living in North Korea and being forced to speak NewSpeak on threat of having caged rats eat your face in Room 101.

With the powerpc to x86 transition Apple was moving towards where everyone else already was. It was one less thing developers had to worry about when supporting Mac. With this migration it's the opposite, and MacOS is still a very small slice of the desktop/laptop market.
their profits oh no
I waited too and the latest Catalina fixes the ImageCapture bugs I was concerned about.
I wonder if this is actually even related to the original Rosetta (which was actually an external vendor - QuickTransit by Transitive), acquired by IBM. Most of the Transitive team left IBM to go to Arm and Apple.
The biggest question I had when I was watching, Why did they not take the chance to rename is as macOS 11?

OSX has been through two transition. The NeXT team must be very proud of their foundation they built 2x years ago.

Basically all of macOS is comically bad with a mouse and clearly designed for trackpads. You need to install a third-party tool to even disable mouse acceleration.

Not on low settings at fake 1080p with an inconsistent framerate, it isn't. It's PS4 level at 60fps on high.

Whereas I can emulate 4k60fps PS3 games with improved textures.
But if you can get past the consolization and peer into the story & writing.. it's nowhere near the level of Deus Ex. Most of it feels like generic scifi mumbojumbo that's there to justify the action (much like Tom Clancy's, e.g. Splinter Cell). There's hardly any of the red pills that seem applicable to today's real-world politics, few references to historic figures and factions..

I'd say it's a thoroughly mediocre game. Still, I've played through it at least two or three times, which is two or three more than the number of times I've played through DX:HR!

EDIT: Also I find it funny that they wanted to make it "family-friendly" and removed blood & gibs, but you can still massacre an academy full of kids. Happened on my previous playthrough..
Same here. 1.1.1.1 seems to resolve it correctly.
Or, that management thinks the work they're having employees do sucks, and their employees are going to slack off as much as they can if left unsupervised. Also, that management doesn't have much in the way of supervisory powers apart from tracking hours at the office.
> I’d love to own stock in them but i’m happier to have them stay private and not beholden to anyone else’s interests.

Stay private = only accredited investors (millionaires) can invest in them

Public companies = everyone can invest in them, including children, the poor, public pensions, etc.

Why would you want them to stay private and have only wealthy investors? You expect a company that has investors that are 100% from the upper class to act ethically? How many POC are wealthy enough to be accredited investors?
Thanks! That is really helpful!
What patents? All Apple is doing is translating x86 instructions to ARM instructions, they’re not emulating the processor.
Will I still be able to use my favourite scripting language, say Ruby, on macOS?
The UI and UX seem to be getting worse on macOS with the “iOSification” of the OS. I thought Jony Ive’s exit would stop that trend. It’ll be interesting to read perspectives from John Gruber, M J Tsai, Marco Arment, etc.

I still haven’t upgraded from Mojave to Catalina because of serious bugs reported by other people (including data loss issues in Mail). I’ll see if Big Sur shows improvements (reported by others) and decide when to upgrade. I don’t even run beta versions of macOS point updates, which is in stark contrast to iOS betas, which have been of better quality (comparatively).

Edit: Apple seems to be ignoring long term Mac users (even the vocal ones) for quite sometime. It was poorer hardware quality and lack of hardware updates for several years. Now it’s software, where it’s been going about removing what makes native macOS experiences great. The Catalyst apps are not “native Mac apps” by any stretch of imagination.
>But I absolutely despise them for making iOS apps installable on macOS. That’s... just terrible.

Can't shake the feeling that a not-insignificant number of people inside Apple now see the future of the Mac just being a place that can run 6 iPhone apps at once and that's it's only strength.

Just from some of the wording in today's keynote.
Celebrities elicit an emotional response, similar to going to a place that has meaning to you. If you've spent twenty hours watching that person's work, and seeing them reminds you of the joy you had watching them, it makes sense that seeing them say your name would elicit a greater response.

That honestly looks more cramped than any office I've ever been in.
One of my favorite small things about OS X has been the dock icons and their variety in shapes. Like how TextEdit has the pencil sticking out or Logic looks like a DJ turntable. It feels like that’s gone now.
That's great and it's your choice to disable it but his point was don't expect developers that rely on JavaScript to power modern web experiences to develop their site to fit your strict requirements.

JS does way more then just fingerprint users and open up security vulnerabilities. You're in a minority that's asking for fall-backs in a world that's so far removed from simple <noscript> fixes.
> I'm surprised we didn't get any performance numbers.

The fact that all the demoes were on their top-of-line most-expensive machines fell very weird to me. "Look at this amazing performance" would be great if the demo was on a Macbook Air.
>Lower fees = lower barrier to entry = crapware

Up front fees sure. But how exactly does charging 10% instead of 30% of sales, encourage lower quality software? Where is the cutoff for this? Why 30%? Would 50% encourage even higher quality software?

>It's not right to offer an app that doesn't allow subscriptions through the app store, this impacts the product.

It's not right? As in it is morally wrong?

>So back at square one, you see the problem? People WANT curated app stores. They want ONE app store to buy their apps. They don't want to download 10 app stores for 10 different apps.

They can keep buying their apps on 1 curated app store. If the other app stores were so inferior and full of crap, no one would use them, so people such as your self could keep selling apps on the "good" app store. It's a self limiting problem.
Wow, nice catch.
The opposite is actually happening with the IMF pumping "free" money to 3-rd world countries. The CNY has lost ground to the USD in the last year and even during the pandemic.
> “jit interpretations”-lack of a better word.

I think this is called "transpiling" -- a version of compiling that's mainly translating from another architecture. And it didn't sound from their description like it was JIT -- it sounded like it would do the transpile when you first installed it (or maybe first ran it?) and keep the results.
Interesting—are you expecting the Thunderbolt ports in the Developer Transition Kit not to work then? Since it's using a Mac Mini chassis.

On the other hand, it probably doesn't use much CPU just because it's single threaded. No game ever uses more than 10% of my 16-thread CPU. But that also means that emulation could seriously tank single-thread performance and ruin the game.
