Sec. 3. Scope of Suspension and Limitation on Entry. (a) The suspension and limitation on entry pursuant to section 2 of this proclamation shall apply only to any alien who:

(i) is outside the United States on the effective date of this proclamation;

(ii) does not have a nonimmigrant visa that is valid on the effective date of this proclamation; and

(iii) does not have an official travel document other than a visa (such as a transportation letter, an appropriate boarding foil, or an advance parole document) that is valid on the effective date of this proclamation or issued on any date thereafter that permits him or her to travel to the United States and seek entry or admission.

Seconded. Employers are in a hard spot right now, because making an affirmative decision is going to cost them staff either way.

Those who've come to enjoy being at home and loving the flexibility of it, if told that it'll be back to the office in 2021 or ASAP, will start looking for a fully remote gig.

Those who dread the idea of being fully remote, if told that the company is going to remain fully or mainly remote, will start looking for a company that will offer more in-office hours.

They're probably looking down the barrel of a quick 20% turnover regardless of the decision they make, and so sitting here preserving the status quo is benefiting them the most.

That's assuming the faster CPUs use the same amount of power. It's possible for a slower CPU to have better performance per watt. This is often exactly what happens when you limit clock speed -- performance goes down, performance per watt goes up.
"After collecting rainwater and air samples for 14 months, they calculated that over 1,000 metric tons of microplastic particles fall into 11 protected areas in the western US each year. That’s the equivalent of over 120 million plastic water bottles. “We just did that for the area of protected areas in the West, which is only 6 percent of the total US area,”"
"30 percent of the sample particles were microbeads, tiny synthetic spheres that the United States banned from beauty products in 2015."

"researchers .. speculate that the microbeads are coming from industrial paints and coatings. If these are sprayed, they could easily spew the microbeads into the atmosphere, "

"the stuff never truly goes away, it just gets shredded into smaller bits that disperse all over the world, perhaps spending many years cycling through different systems—air, land, and sea."
XFCE is good yes. I don't understand why anyone has problems with it. It's perhaps projecting. They're projecting. Wishing their San Bernadino OS Eleven looked as good as XFCE. It takes nine minutes to set up an XFCE desktop looking better than OS XI San Bernadino. So I mean, obviously they're retro-projecting or whatever we'd call it. XFCE for life.

Oh, I see. Extensions have a different model than plugins. Will be interesting to see how support develops and if it expands or not.
That's not the only reason to disable Javascript. The only way to ensure that code doesn't have any negative consequences is not to run it; post facto remedies can reduce known classes of threats significantly, but not remove threat entirely.

I think there's an assumption being made here about how snobbish or desperate artists are.

Many artists and celebrities actually get a great deal of joy and fulfillment out of making individual people feel special through a personalized experience. Realistically they just cannot do it for everyone. Using a service like this, they now can do it and you can compensate them for their time, so everyone wins.

If an artist feel like they're being disrespected or having to compromise on their artistry, they can always just reject the request, simple as that.
To be fair, there is no supported way to uninstall a .app with all of the scattered files, either (all of the things it places in ~/Library to run, like preferences).

For me, AppCleaner is one of the first things I download on a new machine.
The challenge with Stack Overflow is making this scale to 8k questions per day.

The number of people who are willing to spend that time is small to begin with and trying to provide that polite advice and guidance can easily take a significant fraction of an hour per question.

Downvotes and votes to close provide a lower friction of providing that information. Neither of these are intended to be considered rude or unwelcoming.

Personalized advice and guidance for users doesn't scale well.

The Q&A format for Stack Overflow is poorly suited for people trying to gain that foundational understanding. This isn't a failing of Stack Overflow per say but rather the Q&A style. For such questions, other resources where more dense communication can be hand (forums are better for this) - Stack Overflow doesn't need to be and shouldn't be the one resource for all programming questions.

I wonder what they can do to keep a reasonable experience for locally run dev containers intended to eventually run on x64/Linux in prod. Isn't the experience already a little subpar?
My own personal experience as a female software developer is that there is pressure from all sides to go into management, and this pressure can come from both ill and good intent.

Others have mentioned that it might be because of perceived superior communication skills (good?), or perceived lack of "good-enough" technical skills (bad?)... both of these add to the problem, but I've also experienced that diversity-aware companies tend to explicitly want females in management/leadership positions because it sends a stronger message re: caring about diversity than e.g. having a female senior software engineer (As unfortunate as it is, I think most perceive "manager/team lead" as higher up the ladder than "senior software engineer").

A specific example: I worked at a startup where D/I was a huge topic and where we spoke about it during Town Hall all the time. Complaints (mostly from females from within the company, not necessarily from the Engineering department) were always about not having females as team leads, as managers, as directors, on out executive board, etc. So every quarter, each and every competent female engineer would be encouraged to try taking a team lead or management role if there was one open. Of course, a bunch of us (myself included) had 0 interest but the prodding was there.

EDIT: Also, just in case someone is going to take this as proof that "women have it easy" at "woke" companies because the bar is lowered for going into management or something... I feel the need to explicitly state that the bar wasn't lowered. When I say "competent" I actually mean the dictionary definition of "having requisite or adequate ability or qualities". I worked with some badass female engineers, who were certainly skilled enough technically and socially to lead a team.
You know that Apple is going to be making the GPU with the same technology as the CPU right?

And those accelerators don't need to be discrete, Apple can add them to their CPUs.

So, it looks like your point is: Sure, Apple is going to jump a couple process nodes from where Intel is, but everything is somehow going to remain the same?

Yeah, and they had the audacity to highlight this in the overview today like it’s a good thing: how controls will now get out of your way when not using them (that was a problem that needed solving??). Now we can look forward to things on macOS looking even less clickable because Apple has spent valuable engineering hours “helpfully” keeping controls “out of our way”.
iOS and macOS should not look or act similarly, though. A UI should look the way it does in order to optimize efficiency and enjoyment. iOS has a touch UI for devices ~6 inches wide, and no keyboard. macOS has a KB/M UI for devices 13-34 inches wide with a keyboard and mouse, or worse even, a trackpad. You cannot make one more like the other without making it worse.

Levelling your UI to the lowest common denominator is a sure fire way of making it worse and reduces the efficiency and ability of everyone in the long run. macOS and iOS should be entirely distinct UI wise.

Intel QAT supports gzip compression.
The official results from spec.org have a bunch of cheating, eg. exploiting undefined behaviour to run a benchmark improperly. AnandTech uses a consistent compiler (Clang, not ICC) without settings to exploit this, hence the divergence.

It's completely impossible that it wouldn't be revealed to the public, and every possible take on it will be published. All it would take is a few people posting the amounts they received, which is definitely going to happen.

That's assuming that ios apps on the Mac are a big feature. They might just be some novelty to sell the move to arm, or a first step towards some sort of universal apps that just switch their ui according to the device they're used in.
The real story here, I think, is that Apple is making moves to end the bifurcation of their product line. Having the same ISA in both lines means eventually we'll see the lines between them blur.

Whether that's good for consumers remains to be seen -- I fear it may lead to Macs whose architecture is locked down in a manner similar to iOS devices. That would be a worrying trend.

It's amazing that in their history of making computers Apple has used the 6502/65816, the 68k series, the PowerPC, and now ARM. And along the way there were backwards compatibility options for all of them (although not many people bought and used the Apple II compatibility cards for the Mac, they were really two separate user bases).

It is kind of satisfying in a way to see the ARM architecture come full circle and back to the 'home computer' segment it started in. I look forward to seeing someone port RISC-OS to a Mac, I'm sure it will happen. :-)

Zig's use of "async" as a call-site modifier is exactly how I've long wished async/await had been done in languages like JavaScript and Rust. It completely fixes the "color" problem.

I brought it up on HN once, and apparently this was discussed as an option for Rust, but for whatever reason, people didn't like it. To be fair, Rust has certain design requirements that might not be compatible with such a system.
If you want to make a UI more accessible to people that can't point easily the fix is a mouse with filtering and keyboard UI control, and crucially a way to click without moving the mouse. Not making the buttons slightly bigger.

But customers are going towards an entirely entirely closed everything. ios is apple languages, apple signature required to run code, apple processors. Desktop machines are the last bit of freedom in the apple ecosystem.

Hi everyone – I’m putting these groups together to help people expand their personal networks and hold threaded discussions in an environment where everyone gets to know each other. Up to this point, I’ve directly invited most of the users in the groups.

Right now I’m still working out the UX and trying to figure out the direction the community should take. I want to experiment with groups and complex organizations as a means of empowering the individual users, but also as a way of achieving larger goals though cooperation and collaboration.

I’ve met some really great HN users through the first few alpha groups, and I hope to keep that going.
We needed to ban asymmetric internet connections and IPv4 only.
Totally. Avoiding screen sniping should be up to the streamer — in OBS, for instance, one could set up a scene with one source item, an instance of another scene, then add a delay filter to it.

Then one can freely switch between the live scene and the delayed scene. Simple.
You are right.. I missed the diversity quota completely. It is not available for some and open for others. I had friends from West Indies (Trinidad and Tobago) come with green card.
I’m not sure why. As I said, they’ve been using Rust on ARM (as part of Firefox) for a long time; I’m not aware of them being unsatisfied with the current state.

I expect that the Rust project will end up benefiting from the extra interest though, and improving on the things above.

Dragon fruit can be grown in California, Florida, and Hawaii and is not "bland mush with tiny seeds that can require floss to dislodge". The author must have had a bad one. They can be extremely sweet. The seeds are so small that they go down without noticing and I've never had to use floss. My favorite is a variety with deep red flesh.

Mangosteen is so far from its depiction---"to eat a pile of mangosteens is an exercise in disappointment"---that I wonder what kind of pile the author ate. In the US, imported mangosteens can run $20 a pound, so getting a few bad ones would be a disappointment. I suppose many vendors would issue a refund for the bad ones. But in Thailand a pile of mangosteens is so cheap that you wouldn't bother. They are exquisite, almost the fruit equivalent of ice cream (they taste better chilled). It's no wonder they call it the queen of fruits.

Durian likewise deserves its designation as king of fruits. Most people, myself included, are repulsed on the first encounter. But if you can get over the initial shock, you will enjoy the most flavorful fruit with custard-like texture. Its flavor can be described as a combination of many other fruit flavors with a complexity only matched by good coffee and dark chocolate.

Jackfruit is cheap and abundant in Mexican and Asian supermarkets in the US. The trouble is peeling and finishing a whole one. Some stores may sell wrapped pieces if you just want a taste. But if you have some guests and time to work with gloves and a knife, eating a whole jackfruit is a memorable experience.
Current rent in Cambridge,MA is over 3,000 a month for a studio apartment. Someone making 90k a year would most likely spend over half their take home pay on rent, and realistically not be able to provide for a family.

Another interesting fact about MA is the cost of public elementary education is massive, if this employee had children the tax burden per child is greater than 16k+ per year. To offset the tax burden for a 2 child family they would need to own a home that would have a property tax bill of over 32k a year. In many US locations people are a massive tax burden even if they are making what is considered a good salary. Someone making 90k a year wouldn't be able to afford that. In fact someone making $96,250 with a family of 4 can qualify for subsidized housing if they live in Cambridge,MA.

The marginal tax rate in the US is to low for the services the government provides and the country is going broke because of it. The pay for many of these H1-B visa is too low for the location and experience they require. The system has been abused by companies, and neither side is going to correctly adjust it.

- Edit spelling "subsidized"
Yup. Thais tend to like their durians fairly fresh and not so stinky, while some Malaysians push them right to the edge of rotting. (The parallels to cheese are quite clear.)
As a scientist in the US (on H1B visa), I really worry about other scientists postdocs/professors that were planning to come to the States and won't be able to (and will be out of the job, as very often your previous postdoc ends at the time when the new one is about to start). This capricious government is uprooting lives of people without any advance notice or concern. Essentially people are dealt with like cattle. Today you can go, next day you can't.

It’s easy to take every UI change as an affront, particularly when somebody changes something we liked. Just from what I’ve seen though, it appears the goal is a simply a more space efficient UI. It’s not a bad goal, even though I still want to beat them over the head with the Dock which functioned better under NeXTSTEP than it ever did under Mac OS X, and the stoplight isn’t doing anyone any favors over the Mac OS 9 window controls.

I guess I shouldn’t be fighting the wars of 20 years ago though. It is what it is, and since the goal seems to be to rebuild everything in SwiftUI eventually, maybe the Dock will finally be reconsidered in the next few versions when they get around to it.
The J ban only applies to specific J categories. It seems to still allow researchers/professors/students, but bans the shorter-term exchange-type uses of the visa: working-holiday, au pairs, camp counselors, etc. as well as K-12 teachers, professional trainees, and interns (like post-college corp internships).
