The restaurant also has a more direct incentive to actually deliver.

One Friday night here in Sydney, it was raining like crazy - so we ordered in some food from one of the online groups. 2 hours later and multiple talks with support and they were still telling us stories about how it's nearly there.

We eventually called the restaurant directly and the food had been sitting ready for 90 minutes on the counter. The service just had all their gig-economy-staff decide this isn't the gig for them in bad weather, so no one was available to pick it up and deliver it. They said we could pick it up ourselves but we didn't really feel like old food at that point so we cancelled and drove out somewhere else. Being lied to was the most annoying part.
I couldn't agree with Gruber more.
I can see them expanding the cursor behavior in iPadOS into macOS, where its magnetic and it's more like a touch surface.

The ministry of education only has so much power.
I guess this HN post will inevitably turn into about the MacBook Touch Bar, so I would like to contribute my opinion on this:

I've said this multiple times here now, but the Touch Bar is really a joy to use and very useful if you're not the person who's always using only Vim. My personal feeling is that the people who dislike the Touch Bar heard the bad things about it, tried it for a time and two, decided that it's not something good, and spreading the word.

Text suggestion is super useful, the emoji selector is useful very much, text formatting controls are very useful, debugging controls are super useful (and much superior than fn keys), moving between tabs are super useful, etc... Really I can't understand all of the hate that the Touch Bar gets on HN.

And yes, you can touch-type on the Touch Bar, it's not context-sensitive enough to develop muscle memory. You can just reach out your finger from your keyboard without seeing when you're using a particular app. You get muscle memory on how to trash the files on the Finder, comment out a line or rename a variable in Xcode, control display or volumes, move between videos... (And you can type esc super-reliably without looking at all, so really 'You can't use Vim with the Touch Bar' is a bit exaggerated.)

One tip for all of the Touch Bar MBP users - you might want to install the app HapticKey[0], which is a very super useful app that provides haptic feedback on every Touch Bar touch. I consider this the biggest mistake on Apple's part - with haptic feedback it's much easier to develop muscle memory (although I did develop muscle memory without this app too).

Someone knows the trick. Fun anecdote: I bought a 8TB Seagate from a local retailer at discount because it was an open-box return. It looked fine until I plugged it in and the drive showed up without the usual setup.exe and the drive was partitioned oddly. Okay, go to resize the drive and only see 500GB of space. Defective drive? Maybe that's why it was returned. Then I pull up the SMART details. The drive reported over 10,000 hours on it, a history of read errors, and was manufactured by Toshiba.

I looked over every millimeter of that exterior and couldn't see the slightest mark of a pry tool or even a sticker being out of place. I'm impressed if they were able to open the case and reseal it that cleanly. Although I also theorize that someone is stealing empty cases from the factory that they assemble with "recycled" drives. Either way, it was a professional crime. Not like the lazy fraudsters who just put a literal brick in the box and hope the store employee doesn't look inside.

End of story, I got my money back without problem since the store manager knows me.
Easily solved with Better Touch Tool and its config or plugins.

Yeah, it's an extra expense but it makes the touchbar truly useful.

I'm not sure it's fair to place the blame solely on the CCP. A lot of the less desirable behavior stemmed from scarcity of resources, especially when the country was poor.

Can't comment too much on corruption as I don't have much experience there, but I have noticed things like lining up and littering get better as the standard of living has improved over the years.

I'm considering investing into the top few airlines knowing that eventually they'll be back to normal. They'll get bailed out and the stock will go right back up to where it was.
No, I'm not. I've shown you examples of how I'm not, and of how words change meanings, and if you do not believe so, then there's nothing else I can say.
Well I need to know what your definition of "democracy" encompasses.

Examples of things other than direct voting include campaign contributions, talking to the media, going door to door. In the case of teachers, you could talk directly to parents during meetings.

There are all kinds of ways to influence elections that go well beyond simply casting your vote.
Do you have any insight as to how that's possible? Not disputing the fact, but those trains are packed super tight. It seems like ideal situation for spreading. Are the only safeguards mask usage?

Not even a requirement -- some of the elderly scientists I've worked with get by on spreadsheets! I did a tutorial on Git for my lab group in grad school -- there was some code under SVN at the time, but most folks didn't really use version control at all. (One nerve-wracking instance, I had to revert some months-old changes to our instrument control code, with only my memory to go on, because a bug I'd introduced was holding up someone else's experiment.)

Most people in my field use either IDL or Python (if they're doing data analysis) or C/Fortran (for heavy-duty simulations). Some also know Matlab or Mathematica. I've been trying to convert people to Julia -- it's gonna supplant Python for data analysis and maybe even C/Fortran for simulations.

Great point! I'd generalize this and say you have to do this with any minority group that is "below" some desired level (within a country, community, etc.). And concretely, you need to invest in access to money and high quality education first.

Sure. Just to pick one out of a hat, American Renaissance, run by white supremacist Jared Taylor, has never lynched anyone:

https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/grou...

I can't directly cite the negative of never lynching anyone, of course. But a google search should reveal it. AFAIK Andrew Anglin of The Daily Stormer has never lynched anyone either. I still hope the FBI is keeping tabs on him, though.
I appreciate you sharing the article, and shedding further light on these important issues.

I personally don't see 'other' issues in this case, as this article describes a symptom and not a cause. The focus on race is at best a distraction from class, which is the real predictor on the ability to wrangle benefits from the government.

> US Treasury is transferring wealth to White people

I don't really interact with social media - why is white capitalized here? I'm not being facetious, just curious.

And wouldn't the explanation here be that the vast majority of wealth is in pension / passive funds, which primarily invest in large corporations, which are the most capable to wrangle benefits? Racist policies in the past and current discrimination limit the aggregate capital of this group, and therefore they're under-represented as presented here.

Obviously surveys are important but I worry that stating a conclusion allows leeway in choosing a hypothesis that fits personal bias and not reality.

Well if you're willing to accept that the government should not keep tabs on racist organizations or militias, then I guess we've cashed out our disagreement to terminal values. We'll just have to agree to disagree.
Key excerpt:

"That covid-19 has exposed the fragility of globalisation is particularly apparent in the case of aviation. [...] historians will write that it was not radical environmental movements such as Extinction Rebellion that killed the trend. Instead it was the combination of a microscopic virus and free-market capitalism."

This reminded me of accelerationism [1], which seems more relevant now than ever. To quote Wikipedia: " [Accelerationism may refer] to support for the intensification of capitalism in the belief that this will hasten its self-destructive tendencies and ultimately lead to its collapse"

Thank you for making your work available for free. I appreciate the historical context you have added.
Which counterpoint? Several such points have been made already. Do you have a specific one in mind?
You’re both right. You have to empower the disenfranchised through active engagement and investment, but also use financial repercussions against those who would continue to subjugate another class. Without both, success is much more difficult.

Fight corruption with a financial boot. I imagine Bulgaria needs the EU more than the EU needs Bulgaria. This requires more spine in Brussels though.

It's arguing about the morale implications of casual sexual encounters.

Not if only someone could figure out how to make external monitors on mac actually work consistently. Macos still tends to not pick up the correct refresh rate or even the monitor itself.
How should they determine when a group is about to commit a crime though? Usually that's done via pre-emptive surveillance. If they are not allowed to surveil groups that they merely suspect might one day commit crimes, it will be very hard for them to know anything about their activities before the crimes actually get committed.

It's certainly possible that this is just the price of freedom. But I think its a rather heavy price.
I think those aren't "industry funded".

The posts are public and the police cannot go after anyone for simply engaging in protected speech, but they can and have identified looters and murderers who have tried to discredit the fact that black lives matter with their actions.

So I'm not clear why so many people are against the police catching the violent criminals who undermine the message of the many peaceful protesters.
Cameras record facts. What if body cam makers stopped providing police body cams?

To not even be sure whether a website you visit, or a file you download is actually what its creator says it is, is like picking up an orange but the government secretly replaces it with an apple that contains almost no vitamin C in it at all.

You have the right to seek out and eat an orange for your immune system and survival, and no government should have the right to interfere with that, at any time.

This law is a fundamental attack on basic quality of life and basic human rights for all Germans. Whoever proposed it should be ashamed of themselves. I hope the parliament outright rejects it for what it is.

Semantics. You’re right that the usual term in this context would be to “uphold” civil rights but the word enforce means to compel compliance and that is very much an accurate description of the process.

If drugs are outlawed, only outlaws will deal in drugs.

I just wanted to say thanks for the insightful comment. I wasn't aware that this data had been compiled in such a clear and concise manner!

That said, what do you think drives the disparity in outcomes between different US districts and schools, if the funding roughly tracks with cost of living? Similarly, why are schools in European countries so much more efficient in terms of educational costs?

One thought on the first question that comes to my mind is that students who are impoverished or have english as a second language will not have comparable outcomes, even if their school districts have comparable funding.

I wonder if one aspect of the second question is the handling of special education for disabled students. Do European countries educate these students in a different manner from the US. Is the funding taken into account when we look at per student costs?
>The New Yorker shares the same envious hatred of tech companies most of the New York media scene seems to evince, not surprisingly as their livelihoods are evaporating.

You really got to love how thin-skinned all the tech bros here are if they even receive the tiniest amount of scrutiny. You legitimately sound like Donald Trump ranting about the "failing New York Times", mocking people's livelihood evaporating? What kind of comment is that?

And how is the New Yorker "infotainment"? How is the NYT? The quality of reporting at either institution is the same it's always been, in fact they're doing better than they've done in a long time. What's wrong with a liberal-arts education or being a lawyer?

They're defending the status quo? Who brought Theranos to public attention, or Epstein, or Weinstein or much of the behaviour of the current administration over the last few years? Not Scott Alexander or the tech sector, they're too busy running their ads or writing arcane blog posts about the dangers of feminism with comment sections full of racists.
I read the article but I didn't see a definition of the problem. Fewer Bulgarians means what?
The fact that Bulgaria, Hungary and Romania were given membership to the EU is baffling.

Fast forward to today, Liviu Dragnea is serving time for abuse of power, Bulgaria is still dealing with corruption and the Hungary government continues its assault on democracy.

It's beggar's belief why any of these nations membership has not been suspended.
You need to do a bit more research because of the sheer number of options, but there's absolutely manufacturers that have none of those issues (battery exploding was one samsung model, I haven't heard of boot loop issues. Poor security update lifetime is absolutely a common issue though, although fixable by rooting as pointed out in another comment). See: Android One^.

The biggest safeguard in Japan is civic compliance. Pretty much 100% of people with symptoms or who suspect they had contact, self-isolate. At low daily case rates, that's enough. If the rates spike, then they'll have to set restrictions again.
"If Caesar has lost, the world would have looked a lot different." -- Octavian, Ceaser was already dead by this point...

And, no, I don't think the world would have looked a lot different as the system wouldn't have changed... (Mark Antony would have replaced Ocatavian).

As the saying goes, "Rome was not build in one day...." one or two particular rulers didn't have that much effect on the long term. Rome was build gradually and expanded through generations of rulers.... If Mark Antony/Cleoptra combo, was terrible, they would have been eventually been dispatched off, by the internal forces... just like Nero.

By the time Rome was not facing an outside existential threat (Partha was tough, but never an existential threat to Rome).

There's no reason NVIDIA should use a process behind Apple forever because both uses TSMC (and Samsung) and process improves slowing down.

> Unless you have math that says the average winnings people will get will make up for the .7-8% difference you see other institutions giving?

That is how I personally interpreted this statement from the OP:

> We provide a rate of return on savings that on average is in-line with the top yielding savings accounts out there like Marcus or Ally.

If that is true, then you're either choosing to earn your ~1-2% interest rate slowly but surely (in one of the high-yield savings accounts you listed) or in "batches" (using Yotta). It makes sense to me why people would prefer the latter. It also makes sense to me why many people here on HN would prefer the former.
The FBI doesn’t appear to do a great job at preventing white supremacist domestic terrorism, so I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make.
> Also you are not allowed any calculator.

Calculators shouldn’t be allowed on any mathematics examination. With limited exceptions, high-school mathematics and beyond is not really about arithmetic or numerical solutions, but about demonstrating understanding, which you don’t need a calculator for.

Questions on exams that use numerics also put people with dyscalculia at a disadvantage even if they have great ability at differential and integral calculus and other symbolic operations.

But mainly because it’s the best way to sneak-in crib notes past the exam invigilators. Especially in the US where everyone uses TI graphical calculators (yay for regulatory capture).
Oh my! This even has the secret x10 zoom! That's awesome. :)
You don't need tactile feedback when the feedback is real-time in the image on the monitor or the sound in your headphones.

It's not as "real-time" as the feedback from the key itself.

There are physical keyboards without tactile feedback, but studies have shown that most people will drastically slow down when typing on one.
I agree in spirit here, but in practice in order to get probable cause of criminality or criminal intent, you need to do a little bit of surveillance/monitoring first. And it seems to me that a good compromise is "monitor publicly available media, like twitter to look for evidence of criminal intent, and then use more invasive tactics if you find it".
